Welcome to today's edition of The
0:02
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast.
0:05
Welcome back. Everybody's second hour
0:07
of The Clay Travis and Buck
0:09
Sexton Show underway. Now, Well,
0:11
I've been talking a lot about elections. It is decision
0:14
day in Wyoming and
0:16
the Alaska at least primary
0:19
decision day, and Alaska has kind of a weird
0:21
primary. But yeah, Liz
0:23
Cheney's about to get the boots.
0:25
So that's good news. He's gonna get tossed out
0:27
of office here soon. She richly deserves
0:30
it. But there's another
0:32
election process of sorts
0:35
that has occurred that we wanted to bring
0:37
to your attention here. As
0:39
you know, we've been all over the progressive
0:42
prosecutor issue really
0:44
for as long as we've been on air together, because
0:46
this has led to a massive
0:49
increase lib lunatic
0:52
prosecutors who just think, let criminals go
0:54
free. The criminal justice system is racist.
0:57
Just don't even lock people up, don't even
0:59
charge them. One hundred arrests, no big
1:01
deal, must have had a bad day a hundred
1:04
times in a row. It's
1:06
resulted in less safe cities, It's resulted in more
1:08
people being murdered, rape, robbed, assaulted.
1:12
We all see it, we know it. The numbers
1:15
all back it up. And some
1:17
of the worst offenders in the progressive
1:19
prosecutor pantheon are
1:22
the former now DA
1:24
of San Francisco, chess At Boudan, Brag
1:28
Alvin Bragg in New York City, Kim
1:31
Fox in Chicago, and
1:35
Gascone of Los
1:37
Angeles. Now there is a recall effort
1:40
underway, has been a
1:42
recall effort, I have to say, underway
1:44
to get rid of Gascon in Los Angeles, after
1:46
the successful recall effort to
1:49
get rid of Boudan in
1:51
San Francisco, and unfortunately
1:54
the recall effort has hit a little snag clay.
1:56
There's so much going on here. This is so interesting,
1:58
isn't it. To get a recall
2:01
measure on the ballot for the upcoming
2:03
election, you needed to
2:06
have five hundred
2:08
for the partition. This is from the LA Registrar
2:11
County Registrar. Five hundred and sixty
2:13
six thousand, eight hundred and fifty seven signatures.
2:17
Now they had over
2:20
seven hundred thousand
2:22
signatures to recall Gascone,
2:25
but we just find out today
2:27
that only five hundred and twenty thousand
2:30
and fifty signatures were found
2:32
to be valid one hundred and
2:34
ninety five thousand, seven hundred
2:36
and eighty three signatures they
2:39
have said are invalid. Now
2:42
this is I've seen the reasons. There's
2:45
all kinds of stuff, and we can get into some of
2:47
the what the basis is for alleged
2:50
basis for removing these
2:52
signatures may be, but Clay,
2:54
a lot of people are pointed to something right now. It's really
2:56
interesting. What percentage
2:59
of men in ballots in the twenty
3:01
twenty election were rejected
3:04
in Los Angeles County less
3:06
than one percent, basically
3:09
none. What percentage
3:11
of signatures to get this
3:14
Gascon recall recall on
3:16
the ballot were rejected almost
3:19
thirty percent. It's about mathematically
3:22
a sixty x when you add it
3:24
all up. For every one signature
3:26
from a mail in ballot or from a mail in ballot
3:28
in general, for every one that was rejected
3:31
in twenty twenty, sixty signatures
3:33
were rejected in the Gascon effort. I
3:36
have a feeling at best here
3:38
they decided to get a whole lot more strict
3:41
with the rules when it was their
3:43
guy who wanted the strict rules.
3:46
Yeah, and also the
3:48
idea of a written recall
3:51
effort feels really
3:53
antiquated to me in
3:56
a modern era right where you're sitting
3:58
and looking at re signal signature
4:03
and all of these right, we had massive
4:05
issues in Michigan with
4:07
a lot of the people who wanted to be on the ballot
4:10
in Michigan. Now Tudor Dixon ended up being
4:12
the nominee. I spent a lot of time up in
4:14
Michigan and was talking to people about this, But
4:16
they had a bunch of people
4:18
that they thought were going to be leading Republican
4:21
contenders for governor that weren't able
4:23
to get these signatures validated. It
4:25
just seems like it's messy, doesn't it. I
4:27
mean, when you're talking about almost two hundred thousand
4:30
signatures being rejected, you're
4:33
almost to the point now where whatever ballot
4:35
measure you're trying to advocate for needs
4:38
to get twice as many as the minimum
4:40
number in order to feel like you even
4:42
have a chance to get on the ballot itself.
4:45
And getting gascone
4:47
out in LA is
4:49
something that cuts across partisan lines
4:52
in a substantial way, much
4:54
like we saw what happened down in San
4:57
Francisco with CHESSA Houdin, and you didn't mention him,
4:59
but Philadelphia, I mean, we've talked
5:01
a little bit about then, Larry
5:04
Krasner. Philadelphia is
5:07
on pace right now for the deadliest
5:10
and highest level shootings
5:12
that have ever existed in the history of Philadelphia,
5:15
and a lot of it is being pointed at
5:17
Larry Krasner as the reason. And certainly
5:19
if you're listening to us in Los Angeles now,
5:22
I've been fortunate gotten to spend a lot of time in LA
5:24
over the years. I really liked the city of Los Angeles.
5:27
But my goodness, the amount
5:29
of health and safety and danger that
5:32
has changed in the last decade in LA
5:34
is pretty significant. And we haven't talked much about
5:36
it, Buck, but they're having a big mayoral
5:38
election in Los Angeles and
5:41
that's really kind of being divided in many
5:43
ways along political lines, even
5:45
though both of the final
5:47
two, if I remember correctly, are both
5:49
Democrats. One of them was a long time
5:52
Republican developer who is now
5:54
saying, hey, I'm a Democrat as well. Karen Bass
5:57
is on one side. And what's the guy
5:59
who's going to beat Karen Bass? Hopefully? I
6:01
mean, I think he's the more more
6:03
rational and reasonable of the LA
6:06
mayoral candidates, and it would be a big win. And
6:08
he's actually been endorsed by
6:10
a lot of a
6:12
lot of the people who are just fed up
6:14
in Los Angeles with the collapse that they've seen
6:17
there. There's a big point of hypocrisy
6:19
here as well, because in the Gascone
6:21
recall effort. Now Gascone is up
6:23
for reelection in twenty twenty four anyway,
6:26
and it is looking very unlikely
6:29
that he will be reelected
6:31
because even Democrats realize, Look,
6:34
I think I sent you a photo of it this morning.
6:36
Play. I mean, I live in midtown
6:38
Manhattan. I live within
6:41
a stone's throw of Time Square, right in the heart
6:43
of the city, and I walk
6:45
out my front door and there are used
6:47
needles and drug baggies fifty
6:49
feet from the from the front door. I mean, this is
6:51
just what happens when you decriminalize
6:54
open air drug usage. When when all of a sudden,
6:56
shooting up heroin and broad daylight in front of children
6:59
on a crowded street is no big deal.
7:02
You see a lot more of it, right, And when you
7:04
don't prosecute people that
7:06
are gang members
7:08
and have you know, multiple felonies already
7:10
on the record, you don't give them a stiff sentence,
7:13
they end up shooting somebody. And that's what's
7:15
happened in Krasner's Philadelphia. You know,
7:17
there were twelve people who were
7:19
shot Friday night alone in Philadelphia.
7:21
And I know people say, well, some weekends there's you
7:23
know, thirty or forty shot in Chicago.
7:26
Well it's one night, and Philly is a
7:29
fraction the size of Chicago. Philadelphia
7:32
is going to end up having one of the highest murder rates
7:34
in the entire country. And it all
7:36
coincides with Kami
7:39
lunatic Krasner being the
7:41
prosecutor who comes in and just says, prosecuting
7:44
criminals feels racist to me, which,
7:47
by the way, that that sentiment, I would
7:49
argue, is completely insane,
7:52
right, because what you're effectively, what
7:54
you're claiming with all of this, is that the disparate
7:58
impact of prosecution, somehow
8:01
you never take into effect the disparate
8:03
impact on the communities where
8:05
this violence is occurring. You know,
8:07
are you going to side with the
8:09
ninety nine percent of minorities
8:12
who are law abiding or the one percent
8:14
in certain communities who are not law
8:17
abiding? Right? But for Krasner, it's an easy
8:19
decision. He's made that decision and
8:22
this is what we see. We see it. It's spirally
8:24
out of control. Well, let
8:26
me clear this up to LA. May
8:28
or. Race is going to come down to Rick
8:31
Caruso, who is a
8:33
former developer, billionaire and
8:36
former Republican and he's going up
8:38
against Karen vast So that's the decision that La
8:40
is going to have to make. To your point on Philadelphia
8:43
and the allegations Larry Krasner
8:46
would toss out that policing is racist,
8:48
I think you destroy that argument with one
8:50
analogy, and I think it's a good one that I would
8:53
encourage everybody out there. There's my men and women violent
8:55
thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's true. As
8:57
soon as you ask somebody say, okay,
8:59
it's racist here because fifty people
9:01
who are going to being arrested for violent crime or
9:03
black and they only represent twelve percent of the population.
9:06
Whatever it is, say, okay, ninety
9:08
seven percent of the people that are being arrested
9:11
for violent crime in America regularly,
9:13
certainly well over ninety percent in every community.
9:15
You know what they are mail? Is it sexist
9:18
that police are police waging war
9:20
on men by arresting men
9:23
wildly er percentages than
9:25
their percentage of population. If you took
9:27
the left wing view on this the
9:31
the what's the word where
9:33
misogyny is hating women? Andrew? Is it? No?
9:35
Not? It's uh, miss, what's
9:38
the word for hating men? I'm blanking on right
9:40
now. I don't even know it's
9:43
there is a word, and I think
9:45
it's androw something or other. I'm forgetting right
9:47
now. But anyway, if you took
9:49
the left wing argument about criminal justice and race
9:51
to apply it to gender, what you would
9:54
you would you would go through all the same iterations. You'd
9:56
say, there are so many men who are in
9:58
prison u for crimes
10:00
they didn't commit, and women get off
10:02
for murders all the time. This is what
10:05
has often said, right and they would say,
10:07
or miss Andrew, I'm not sure how Miss Andrew was
10:09
like, yeah, okay, okay, yeah, And
10:12
there are so many men who
10:14
are in prison who who are innocent, and beyond
10:16
that, we should just let a lot of men who are murderers
10:18
out of prison, because clearly
10:21
it can't be true that there are more men committing
10:24
murders than women. Therefore, let's
10:26
just empty out the prison population of
10:28
murderers and see what happens.
10:30
That is the argument that the left has engaged in
10:32
just with race instead of gender involved.
10:36
And you know, you see this playing out
10:38
with kras and you see this playing out with Gascombe.
10:40
But just another thing, clay on the process,
10:43
the recall process, and how
10:45
I mean here that they're saying things like I pulled
10:48
this up so I could see exactly the
10:51
reasons they got rid of a
10:53
lot folks. Almost two hundred thousand signatures
10:55
found to be invalid, right not registered.
10:58
Max number of times signed different an
11:00
address, different address,
11:02
thirty two thousand. That's that's
11:05
close to being the margin. You
11:07
know. How you know there were thousands of people who voted
11:09
in the wrong county in Georgia in the twenty twenty
11:12
election and their votes were counted,
11:14
and they don't they don't seem to care. Molly
11:17
Molly hemingway over the Federalists that excellent work
11:19
on this. They just figure, well,
11:23
they basically should count because people's
11:25
votes should count. So we're just going to ignore the rules.
11:28
Notice, the left becomes hyper focused
11:31
on ways to use integrity
11:34
laws about elections or anything else when it's to their advantage,
11:36
and when it's not to their advantage, those
11:38
laws are racist. Yeah,
11:41
and it's systemic racism,
11:43
not just racism, systemic racism. So
11:45
I would ask all of you out there, the next
11:48
time you hear maybe it's your kids, maybe
11:50
it's your grandkids arguing the criminal
11:52
justice system is systemically racist, just
11:54
set them down and say is it also systemically
11:57
sexist? And then walk through
11:59
that argue with them and see
12:01
what their reaction is, because a
12:03
lot of times when people play the systemic
12:06
racism card, they expect because
12:08
there is a fear in your
12:10
racist If you question anything
12:13
that has to do with systemic racism allegations,
12:15
just say, yeah, you know what, In addition to being
12:17
systemically racist, I think
12:20
our criminal justice system is systemically sexist
12:23
because men are overwhelmingly
12:25
going to prison and it's
12:28
not fair. And just see what the reaction
12:30
is. Why are police so sexist?
12:33
Why are they consistently arresting
12:35
men and not arresting women?
12:38
And in order to balance things out in society,
12:40
should we just arrest fewer men for violent
12:43
crimes? Should we just Look,
12:45
it's not fair. Clearly men aren't just committing
12:47
more violent crimes than women, The
12:49
argument goes, so we should just arrest
12:52
fewer men for violent crimes.
12:54
This is the argument laid bare for everybody.
12:56
So there you go, and what happens when
12:58
you do that? By the way, there's more c what
13:00
a shock A smart thing you can
13:02
do right now, folks, has put yourself in the best financial
13:05
situation possible. That means looking
13:07
into your ongoing expenses, take
13:09
action to cutback wherever you can. If
13:12
you have a lot of credit card debt or high living expenses,
13:14

Animals one eight two three three four and MS
14:01
Consumer Access Dot or Welcome
14:05
back to m clay, Travis and Buck Sexton
14:07
Show. And we are going to be joined
14:09
here shortly I believe by
14:12
oh shortly, as in right this moment.
14:14
Look at that. It's like magic, Clay, I just
14:17
will it into existence. There you go. We
14:20
have Kelly Shabaka with us now. She's running
14:22
for Senate up in the great
14:25
state of Alaska. Kelly, thanks
14:27
for calling and appreciate you making the time. I know it's a big
14:29
day. I'm so happy
14:31
to be with you, and thanks for making time for me.
14:34
So tell us about what everybody, not just
14:36
across the country, but certainly in
14:38
your home state of Alaska's We've got a great Alaska
14:41
audience listening to this.
14:43
What do they need to know about why
14:45
they should go with you as the
14:47
real Republican here over Lisa Murkowski
14:50
as the fake Republican. Maybe I just gave too much
14:52
away, but go ahead. I
14:54
think you just summed it up. But here's
14:56
like three top reasons. Number one, we
14:59
need someone who is going to block all
15:01
those Biden nominees that are harmful
15:04
for Alaska. Instead of having
15:06
a senator who's confirmed nearly all
15:08
the radical nominees, including
15:10
those leftist environmentalists who are
15:12
working to shut down our state and
15:14
pursue the energy annihilating agenda
15:17
that's killing our fossil fuel industry
15:19
and driving up gas prices. Number
15:21
two, we need a senator who
15:24
isn't bought and paid for by dark
15:26
money from DC insiders and
15:28
radical environmentalists and big tech. Instead,
15:30
have a senator who represents our Alaska
15:33
voices and won't be bullied, silenced,
15:35
and controlled by the DC insiders.
15:38
And I'd say number three, we need a
15:40
senator who doesn't say one thing in Alaska
15:42
and do the opposite in DC, and
15:44
instead votes for what's in the best interests of Alaska.
15:47
Like right now, Senator Murkowski says
15:49
she supports our Second Amendment
15:51
interests, but then she goes back
15:53
to DC and works with Joe Biden and the
15:55
Democrats to vote for red flag laws and
15:58
she loses her NRA endorse and
16:00
votes for gun control. Well, we love our guns
16:03
up here. We have to look both ways when we walk out our side,
16:05
our door to see what Grizzly Bear is coming. So
16:07
we need a senator who just talks straight. Claire,
16:09
I told you about the grizzly bears everywhere.
16:12
They really are everywhere. We're talking to Kelly Shabaka.
16:14
She is a candidate for Alaska
16:17
Senate. All right, so explain.
16:19
Buck and I were trying to make sense of this
16:22
ranked choice voting system. And
16:24
obviously we are borderline
16:28
intelligent on this issue, and that's probably an exaggeration.
16:31
We don't really understand it that well. So
16:33
today, is it right that there
16:36
will be four people who advance
16:38
to the general election? And
16:40
if you are people are listening
16:42
to us right now and they are big supporters of yours.
16:45
What's the best way to vote both now
16:48
and in November from a ranked
16:50
choice perspective. I
16:52
can break it all down super simple. Today,
16:55
vote Kelly, and in November vote
16:57
Kelly number one. Leave the rest of your ballot
16:59
blank. Your ballot will not be disqualified,
17:02
you won't lose your vote. And this is what's
17:04
actually happened. Project Veritas
17:06
just exposed undercover videos
17:09
that leaves the Murkowski colluded with her
17:11
campaign staff to deceive
17:13
Alaskans and manipulate this
17:16
change in our election system, so she'd
17:18
have some kind of a limited
17:21
chance of being able to maintain the forty
17:23
one year Murkowski monarchy. They
17:25
hand down our Senate seat like a birthright,
17:28
but it doesn't belong to the Murkowskis.
17:30
It belongs to Alaska. So
17:32
what we're doing is fighting to get our Senate
17:34
seat back in the hands of Alaskans.
17:36
She wouldn't win this primary. If it was a party
17:39
primary, her career would be done today, but
17:41
instead she wants to drag it on to November, and
17:43
I'm confident we're going to retire her. The
17:45
way that we do that is we vote Kelly number
17:47
one in November. If we get fifty percent
17:50
on round one, we win. Otherwise, what happens
17:52
is Number four drops off, Number three drops
17:54
off. Their subsequent votes go
17:56
and get resorted into person one.
17:58
In person two, it'll be head to head between
18:00
me and Lisa Murkowski. But I'll tell you
18:03
I've talked to thousands of Alaskans. Even common
18:05
sense Democrats are supporting us because they
18:07
can't line up with Joe Biden and Lisa Murkowski.
18:10
So I think we're gonna win this. We just have to wait to
18:12
November to do it. Okay, Kelly, that's important
18:14
because a lot of people out there listening to us
18:16
right now are used to Republican primaries
18:18
and Democrat primaries. If you were running
18:21
against Lisa Murkowski today for
18:23
the Republican nomination in Alaska,
18:25
you would trounce her. Right, That's
18:28
absolutely correct. She knows it. I know
18:30
it. The data shows it. That's why she
18:32
had to manipulate a change in the election
18:34
system so she would survive. We're
18:37
speaking to Kelly Shabaka. The
18:39
primary is today in Alaska. She's
18:41
running for Senate there, and
18:43
Kelly, I see, you're a Harvard lograd
18:45
from two thousand and two. Very impressive, by the way,
18:49
the decision by Murkowski
18:51
to vote to impeach Donald
18:54
Trump and to maintain
18:57
that she is a Republican. Who did this? What
18:59
do you think he calculation was? Like? Who
19:01
was she trying to please with that one? What game
19:03
was she playing? So
19:06
when you look at her rhetoric and the thing
19:08
she's done, I think she has a personal vendetta
19:11
against Donald J. Trump, whether he's
19:13
a president or whether he's just a citizen. The
19:16
fact is it's not a constitutional to impeach
19:18
somebody who is no longer holding office as
19:21
president or in any position in the government.
19:24
It's just a personal vendetta for her. But
19:26
Lisa Rakowski can't really hold herself out
19:28
as a Republican when she's voting
19:30
with Chuck Schumer twenty percent more often
19:33
than she votes with Ted Cruz, and when she's voting with Joe
19:35
Biden seventy percent or more of the
19:37
time, she's often that tie breaking
19:39
vote on nominees or on legislation
19:42
for Joe Biden. Just saving Kamala the walkdown
19:44
Pennsylvania Avenue. We all know up
19:46
here in Alaska that she's not a Republican. Our
19:49
Republican party has actually censured her and
19:51
removed her from membership. The only people
19:53
who are still pretending she's a Republican really
19:56
is Mitch McConnell. And we can't figure out
19:58
why because up here in Alaska, she
20:00
looks like a Democrat. She talks like a Democrat,
20:02
she walks like a Democrat. Her campaign is run
20:04
by Democrats and funded by Democrats.
20:07
That makes you, uh, that's right, a Democrat.
20:09
She's wondering, Kelly, that's
20:11
what it is. Sarah Palin's running in a congressional
20:14
race up there. Any thoughts on that one? Just you
20:16
know, she's somebody who really put Alaska
20:19
on the national political maps on years ago,
20:22
any any thoughts at all that
20:24
one's going to be a tight race. So though that's
20:26
to close and finish our vacant congressional
20:29
seat from when our congressman passed
20:31
away earlier this year, and that one's going to be decided
20:33
today. And she has a very
20:35
tight race with another Republican who has been endorsed
20:38
by our Republican party. So we'll
20:40
see what happens up here. They're
20:42
splitting the vote and then there's a Democrat
20:44
in that race, and that's the ring choice election,
20:46
So we're going to see how that plays out today. She's got
20:48
a lot of support, but so does her challenger,
20:51
her Republican challenger. We'll see what happens.
20:53
Kelly. You got a law degree, is Buck just mentioned?
20:56
I do two, and we've
20:58
talked a ton about this more lago
21:00
raid by the FBI. What
21:02
was your reaction when you heard it happened.
21:06
You know something that Buck and I share in common
21:08
is our background in national security.
21:11
I spent over a decade doing oversight
21:13
of THATBI. I come from the watchdog
21:15
world, so not only
21:17
from my pass as a recovering lawyer,
21:20
but my past as doing oversight of the FBI.
21:22
This is very disturbing. We're seeing
21:24
that there's violation of the equal
21:27
treatment of law, and we're seeing a
21:29
concern here. At least we need to ask questions why
21:31
they didn't use least intrusive means,
21:33
that's our Fourth Amendment protection. We
21:35
need to ask why didn't they have just enforced their subpoena
21:38
to ask for documents instead of going in
21:40
with a warrant and invading a home
21:42
and flipping over things and looking in face
21:44
and people's clothes. These are the kind
21:47
of questions we need to ask because it looks
21:49
like a politicization and weaponization of law
21:51
enforcement against political enemies and opponents.
21:53
And you're not doing that against other people
21:55
who are political friends and allies. And
21:58
that's concerning. So it's time for Congress
22:00
to ask some hard questions. It's time to
22:02
hold DJ and FBI officials accountable,
22:05
and there's lots of ways to do that. Kelly,
22:07
good luck today, good luck in November. I'm sure
22:09
we'll talk to you again. She is Kelly Shibaka.
22:11
She is running for the Alaskan
22:13
Senate seat that is currently occupied
22:16
by Lisa Murkowski. Thank you for the time, Thanks,
22:19
and I make Kelly for Ak dot com. If people want

23:48
you to go subscribe to the podcast, sign up
23:50
for YouTube Truth Social
23:53
Rumble. We're everywhere, and one
23:55
reason a lot of those social numbers are
23:57
growing so rapidly is because
24:00
we'll have conversations that frankly, don't
24:02
occur very many places, such as
24:04
the one we're about to have with
24:06
Alex Berenson. Alex, when
24:09
we were having you on last year and you were starting to share
24:11
the data on the COVID shot and the fact
24:13
that it was not going to limit
24:17
the spread or keep people from
24:19
getting COVID, it was considered
24:21
to be unacceptable. The White House
24:23
was furious. And this is
24:25
where I want to start with you. On
24:27
your sub stack. You have a story up.
24:30
You have written documentation that
24:32
the White House, in meetings with Twitter,
24:35
demanded that you no longer
24:37
be able to share your opinions on social
24:41
media because the White House considered it to be disinformation.
24:44
Misinformation however you want to
24:46
classify it for people who don't
24:49
know exactly what happened, what happened and what
24:51
was the impact of that White House activity,
24:55
Well, I think the short answers were I'm
24:57
still I'm still investigating that, I'm still
24:59
finding that out. But what happened
25:01
that you know, that I know for certain
25:03
is that last August, Twitter
25:06
banned me, and they had
25:08
sort of been ratcheting up the pressure on me
25:10
starting in mid July of last year
25:12
July twenty twenty one, I've been a
25:15
pretty popular Twitter user, probably
25:17
one of the more prominent skeptics, first about
25:20
lockdown and
25:22
you know, in school closures and stuff like that in twenty
25:24
twenty, and then raising questions about
25:26
the vaccine I think, you know, and I
25:29
would say it was raising them in a very data driven,
25:32
measured way. But
25:34
they clearly didn't like that. People in the public
25:37
health community didn't like that. Democratic
25:39
politicians didn't like that. Journalists
25:42
didn't like that, and
25:44
so and yet Twitter,
25:46
um, you know, for most of twenty
25:49
twenty and early twenty twenty one told
25:51
me suppecily, we have your back. Basically,
25:53
we know what you're doing, we think it's okay.
25:57
So at some point late
26:00
spring or summer of twenty twenty one,
26:02
that changed, and it changed
26:05
very publicly for me. In July
26:07
of twenty twenty one, they'd banned me or locking
26:09
me out of my account for the first time after
26:12
President Biden said he
26:14
didn't mentioned me, but he said, you know, these social
26:16
media platforms are killing people. So
26:19
that led me to sue Twitter in
26:22
in December twenty
26:24
twenty one, saying, look, you guys stanned
26:26
me in August. That was wrong. I didn't
26:28
do anything wrong. You
26:31
know, you made these representations to me,
26:33
and you're violating your own you know, contract
26:36
with me, and you're violating my First Amendment
26:38
rights. You're acting, you know, on behalf of the state,
26:40
you know, by state and ey federal government. Okay.
26:44
In April of this
26:46
year, a couple months ago, a judge,
26:48
a federal judge in California, said I
26:51
had a viable claim that I had
26:53
proven or at least stated plausively
26:56
that Twitter had indeed violated
26:59
its terms of service US with me. That
27:01
led to settlement negotiations
27:03
between me and Twitter in July,
27:07
a month ago, Twitter put me back
27:09
on the platform and acknowledge that it shouldn't
27:11
have taken me off. So
27:15
that was where we were until a couple
27:17
of days ago. A couple of days ago, I posted
27:19
these documents. And what the documents show is
27:22
that in April of twenty twenty one,
27:25
before I became under public pressure,
27:28
the White House appears
27:30
to have specifically targeted
27:33
me with Twitter. They went
27:35
to they had a meeting at the White House, and
27:37
nobody's suiting the authenticity of these
27:39
documents. And after the meeting, Twitter
27:42
people said to each other internally they
27:44
were very interested in now experiencing They
27:46
wanted to know why he's still on the platform.
27:49
So that gives me a
27:51
viable claim to sue the White House
27:54
and to sue a guy named Andy Flavitt, who
27:56
at the time was the COVID an
27:58
advisor to the COVID response team,
28:00
who has you know, who's sort of been very prominent
28:03
in the Democratic response to COVID, but
28:05
he was working in the White House at that time,
28:07
and he's specifically mentioned in these documents
28:09
and say, look, you guys tried to use the power
28:12
of the schedual government against me.
28:14
Specifically, you leaned on Twitter
28:16
and four months later Twitter banded
28:18
me. So I'm gonna so I need to know how
28:21
that happened. I need to know how you silenced
28:23
me. I have a right, as at first, you know, as an American
28:26
citizen, to the First Amendment to speak,
28:28
to beak publicly. Twitter is
28:30
a very very important platform. You obviously
28:33
knew that you wanted me off what
28:35
happened. So I'm going to sue, you
28:37
know, the White House, and I'm gonna sue Slavitt
28:39
and we'll see what happened. Speaking
28:42
Alex Berenson, he has a sub stack
28:44
which you should all check out. And also
28:47
his book is Pandemia. Alex, I
28:49
didn't I want to ask you about COVID because Clay
28:51
and I have just been First of all, as we know, doctor
28:54
Jill Biden, what was your line cloud
28:56
on Twitter? Not a good enough doctor to avoid COVID?
28:58
You know, think have taken it more serious?
29:01
Would have gotten five shots? This
29:04
with Boor Law and the other the CEO
29:06
of Moderna bemoaning the disposal
29:10
of thirty million shots because
29:12
nobody wants them. It feels like
29:14
the whole thing is collapsing. Is
29:16
there even any good evidence at
29:18
this point to suggest that if someone
29:21
got their booster six months
29:23
ago, let's say they are
29:25
any more protected than anybody
29:28
else. Oh, absolutely
29:30
not. No, six months ago, No against
29:32
omicron. No, you probably
29:34
are in higher risk in infection. Uh.
29:38
You the booster seems to work
29:40
for somewhere between two and six weeks against
29:42
omicron. Uh.
29:45
That's about it. No, here's
29:47
here's the you know. The punchline
29:49
is, Yeah, Maderna is dumping thirty million
29:52
doses. The US government is spending almost
29:54
two billion dollars to buy sixty six million
29:56
boosters from them, and three billion to
29:58
buy another one hundred million boosters
30:01
from Fiser. We are reloading
30:03
with shots that are nobody's gonna want that, we're
30:05
sending five billion dollars off. Can
30:07
I just ask, Alex, is this an even bigger failure
30:10
than a year ago we were having
30:12
you on? And I might add to some considerable
30:15
heat that Clay and I got for this, including
30:17
from other people on the right. I think Alex
30:19
is going too far on the vaccines. I think
30:21
Alex is you know, he's lost it on this one. Even
30:24
some people that were open to you know, your
30:26
initial research. Is this even
30:29
more of a collapse of the vaccine
30:31
biden mandate regime than
30:33
you had anticipated. God,
30:38
I mean, you know, on the one
30:40
hand, yes, On the other hand, people, So there's
30:42
sort of two things happening. Right. Everybody
30:44
knows, right, everybody knows that
30:46
the vaccines don't really work right
30:49
at best, and that's why people won't get We talked about
30:51
this in the past. That's why people are not getting their kids
30:53
vaccinated. That's why vaccine demand
30:55
has collapsed. On the other hand, you
30:57
still have to sort of I mean I don't
31:00
and you don't, but people will still sort
31:02
of throw out. But they do protect against severe
31:04
disease and death, and frankly,
31:07
for that at this point is essentially
31:09
close to nail if you really know what the data
31:11
says. Um so, so,
31:14
I mean, I guess, I guess
31:16
we don't even need to have that fight, though. I guess
31:18
you're right. As long as
31:21
nobody's getting the shots. That's
31:23
that's people knowing
31:25
the truth, whether they want to talk about it or
31:28
not. You know, But Alex,
31:30
I actually think that
31:32
you just mentioned that we're going to spend five billion
31:34
dollars on a lot of boosters that nobody
31:36
wants. And I'm sure
31:38
you've seen the articles about the Maderna executives
31:41
who are buying multimillion dollar estates
31:44
and fancy housing. Certainly
31:46
that's happening at Visor as well. With what
31:48
they're paying these top people. I
31:51
think we do need some sort of recompense
31:54
here. And I know, and this has been something
31:56
that you've talked about and we've hammered on this show.
31:59
Right now, you can't sue over
32:02
anything that go wrong with these
32:04
shots, which should have been terrifying in the
32:06
first place for anybody out there thinking about taking
32:09
them. But shouldn't
32:11
there be some investigations, like if
32:13
the Republicans take the House and maybe the Senate,
32:15
but certainly the House at a minimum, shouldn't
32:18
we have a real investigation into how this money
32:20
got spent the failure, And frankly,
32:22
I think that there should be potentially
32:24
criminal investigations because it seems quite
32:27
clear, and I'm curious if you agree with this. It
32:29
seems quite clear that we were
32:31
fraudulently induced to take
32:33
these shots, and that there has to
32:36
be substantial evidence of fraud
32:38
inside of Maderna and Fizer over
32:41
the fact that these things were not working
32:43
while they were getting people fired for refusing
32:46
to take them, right, I feel like there needs to be
32:48
some consequence other than everybody
32:50
just says, Haha, these don't work, we're not going to take
32:53
them anymore. Well, they're still making billions
32:55
of dollars and people still lost their jobs.
32:58
So look, I mean, we need to
33:00
investigate whether or not there was criminal
33:02
behavior or anything like that. I'm sort
33:05
of not prepared to go there at
33:07
this point. Here's where you have to
33:09
remember last year that this collapse happened
33:11
extremely fast, the collapse of vaccine
33:14
efficacy. Okay, these vaccines were
33:16
only invented in the
33:18
spring of twenty twenty. They were
33:20
only put into people's arms beginning in
33:22
the summer of twenty twenty. By
33:24
November, it was suddenly they were a miracle.
33:27
Okay, So the companies were only a
33:29
few weeks or months, a couple
33:31
months and most ahead of everybody
33:33
else. The reason that I know, the
33:35
reason that like I, you
33:38
know, was so loud in sounding
33:40
the alarm in the spring
33:43
of twenty twenty wasn't that I knew something
33:45
was wrong. Is that I knew that the data wasn't
33:47
there to support what the companies
33:49
were saying. But it wasn't just the companies, it was the public
33:52
health authorities, and then over the summer
33:54
it became clear that efficacy was
33:57
going to collapse much faster than
33:59
people thought, and became clear out of data,
34:01
because of data out of Israel. The
34:04
crime here, I mean, and crime is sort of
34:06
the wrong word, but let's say crime. The
34:08
crime here isn't what
34:11
we know. It's that we don't know what we
34:13
don't know. And the companies haven't
34:15
been forced to collect the data properly. They
34:17
haven't been forced. So there's
34:19
a study that came out a couple of days ago showing
34:23
that the vaccine seemed to have some heart impact
34:25
on a lot of teenagers.
34:27
Okay, out of Thailand. Now we
34:29
already knew that myo Kardiitisan chartdis
34:32
are risk for young people who get these
34:34
shots. Okay, this
34:37
study wasn't that big, It wasn't
34:39
definitive, but you know, it adds to the
34:41
questions about whether or not any
34:43
teenager or any young adults should be getting the shots.
34:47
That's good. Why was
34:49
this done, you know, you know, out of a time
34:51
military hospital. Why wasn't
34:53
Maturner required to do this last year? Why
34:56
didn't the NIH do this itself last
34:58
year. Why why are we spending a billion
35:01
dollars plus on long COVID, which, which
35:03
I will continue to insist at the end of my
35:05
days, is basically non existent. And
35:08
you know it's it's it's yet another
35:10
sort of like made up syndrome
35:13
looking for insurance dollars and
35:16
drug company dollars. I mean, yeah, and sympathy
35:18
online. By the way, people love to talk about, oh, my
35:20
long COVID, and then they get all the comments about I'll
35:22
be brave push through your long COVID, as in,
35:24
you know you're a little depressed m alex
35:27
before I let you go. Lastly,
35:29
but why why don't we why didn't we
35:31
spend the money to figure out about myralkroditis?
35:34
Yeah, we don't want any answers here. I mean, you know Fauci's
35:36
is going around dressed like a hipster talking about
35:38
the Faucci effect. I mean, anybody who still believes
35:40
that guy is anything works
35:42
anything other than the worst public health
35:45
official in the history I think of the modern
35:47
world, is out of their minds. But
35:49
I did want to ask you quickly because you alluded to this
35:51
and I saw some study out of Iceland. I don't know if
35:53
it's you know, real deal. I know you read all
35:56
the studies that suggests negative
35:58
efficacy, as in, there
36:00
is a concern that you could be more
36:03
likely to contract a strain
36:05
of COVID based on if
36:07
you've gotten X number of shots. Is
36:09
where are we on that? Is there a real data
36:11
to support negative efficacy? I've
36:14
read the other some study, it's real, it's good. It's a national
36:16
level study from a rich country that a
36:18
smart scientists. Yeah, what that says is
36:21
if you were infected and then vaccinated, you
36:23
have a better chance of getting COVID than if you're infected
36:25
and did not get vaccinated. I
36:28
mean, it's really amazing how bad
36:31
the vaccines are turning out to be. But
36:33
this is what happens when you rush
36:36
a technology that basically didn't exist
36:38
and put it in a billion people after
36:41
a couple of months of research. It's a
36:43
bad idea and we would have been lucky,
36:46
very lucky if none of this had happened.
36:48
Instead, we're just getting what you would expect.
36:50
And by one last thing, I know, I got to go. I
36:52
know you guys are sure on time. The all cosmortality
36:55
numbers are bad. They are bad all
36:57
over the world. In the MR and a countryes. What I mean
36:59
is for months now in the UK,
37:02
in Australia, in Germany and a lot of countries
37:05
that collect data better than we do, they're
37:07
seeing a rise in overall death
37:09
counts, not a huge rise, but a five
37:12
ten percent rise in non COVID
37:14
deaths. That that is strikingly
37:16
correlated to the you know,
37:18
to the mass vaccination care and and
37:20
alex isn't that also even
37:23
younger people right like eighteen
37:26
to forty nine, you're seeing some of the highest
37:28
increases in you know, sort of unexplained
37:30
death relative to expectations.
37:33
So that's gotten thrown around a lot because
37:35
there's this one insurance company, uh,
37:37
you know, Executi. If we talked about that, it's
37:39
not actually clear to me that that's true. Although actually
37:42
in the next few minutes I'm going to have a subspect
37:44
that people are gonna that's gonna strike people
37:46
about some data out of New Zealand.
37:49
Um. So, so look,
37:52
older people die it much much higher rates than
37:54
younger people, so you can see it more clearly
37:56
and there's less statistical noise. But
37:58
when you when you look around the world, this
38:00
is something that we should be talking about
38:03
that but how are the public health parties going to admit
38:05
this? If it's a problem, that's how
38:07
do they admit? Hey, you know, maybe we
38:09
caused a five percent increase in overall death
38:11
worldwide. Man,
38:14
go check out Alex's substack. Everybody subscribed
38:16
to its support his work. Pick up a copy of Pandemia
38:19
Alex. You know we'll have you back soon. Thanks so much.
38:22
Thanks guys. Will
38:24
we see the stock market respond well to quarter
38:26
of the earnings coming out this week from places
38:28
like Walmart and other major companies? Maybe

38:33
your four oh one K and savings account are going to be
38:35
in good shape? No way, We're
38:38
still in a scary time and a new plan
38:40
is needed, a plan to shield ourselves
38:42
as best as we can from the unexpected highs
38:45
and lows. My own plan includes increased
38:47
ownership of gold and silver. Both
38:49
have been proven over time to hold their value in
38:51
markets. Act like they've been acting. I
38:53
rely on the Oxford Gold Group for gold purchases.
38:56
They're the industry leader for so many reasons.
38:58
Their advice, their best pricing garrett, their
39:00
ability to deliver real gold

all contribute to that designation.

Help us set an all time record in August.
39:28
As we get ready with the mid terms
39:30
coming closer and closer, Buck, you and
39:32
I tomorrow are flying to Salt
39:34
Lake City where'll be doing the show Thursday and Friday.
39:36
Cannot week to be out there where
39:39
we are number one in the markets and you're
39:41
spending a lot of time in Florida. I'm spending a
39:43
lot of time in Florida. Pole
39:45
results have come out in the
39:48
last couple of hours University
39:51
of North Florida. One of the polls
39:54
not particularly surprising. Florida
39:57
Governor RHN de Santis up seven points
40:00
on Nicky Freed, up eight
40:02
points on Charlie Christ.
40:04
Democrats still have to pick. They're
40:07
running uh their nominee
40:10
and the Democrats when they do, by the way, you're
40:12
going to see that Desantist number go up
40:14
a couple of points. Just when we know who the Democrat
40:16
nominee is. I think it'll be Charlie Christ.
40:19
He seems to be kind of running away with
40:21
it in many water running in
40:24
Florida for the last hundred years from what I can understand.
40:26
Here's here's a good example of this. Buck
40:29
two different poles in Florida today,
40:32
and I'm looking at real clear politics. I
40:34
love looking at polls. I'm a nerd. They post
40:37
these new every day. In Saint
40:39
Petersburg they did a pole Saint
40:42
Pete poles, Charlie Christ up
40:44
thirty two points over Nicky Freed
40:47
in the Democrat
40:49
shot. Okay, in the University
40:51
of North Florida pole, Nicky
40:53
Freed up four points. They came
40:56
out the same day, a thirty
40:58
six point poll old difference
41:01
and a difference in who would win. So
41:04
that's kind of hard to explain. And it brings
41:06
me to this. We've been talking a lot
41:09
about the Senate. Which
41:11
one do you think? Which one do you think is right? I mean, I'm
41:13
not following. I've never looked at a poll before.
41:15
Between the two of them, the assumption
41:17
has been that Freed is the Agricultural
41:20
Commissioner and she's to make a lot of noise. I think
41:22
people realize she's a little um off.
41:25
And then there's uh, you know,
41:27
old man Chris, who's just been around forever.
41:29
Yeah, I think Chris is probably going to be the nominee.
41:32
Yeah, but the fact that we got thirty six point
41:35
difference ties me in here. They've
41:38
got Rubio down to Val Demmings
41:40
in the Senate race. Now, I do not
41:42
believe this is accurate, but you're probably going
41:44
to see this start to ricochet around
41:46
because Democrats want to sell the idea
41:49
that they have tremendous momentum. Right, they're
41:51
trying to sell this idea joementum Joe
41:53
Biden passed the House
41:56
and the Senate bill. They're trying to sell
41:58
the idea that he's on the comeback trail. And
42:01
so I guarantee you that this Pole
42:03
is going to get a lot of attention. Val Demmings.
42:05
They have her up four points
42:08
over Rubio. University of
42:10
North Florida Pole. Now, the
42:12
reason why I want to share with you, I don't want to run from
42:14
it because the Senate is
42:17
folks, It's gonna be tough. I
42:19
look, doctor Oz. Did you see the doctor
42:22
Oz commercial where
42:24
he goes in the campaign thing where he goes
42:26
in and talk about the price of things, and
42:29
he's asking about what he needs
42:31
to buy for his crew. Detay,
42:33
I mean it's like he should go in there and
42:35
ask if they have any great poupon.
42:37
This was not not good,
42:40
right, I mean the team here, you guys saw it, right, doctor
42:43
doctor Oz. I know you talked to him last week
42:45
when I was out. Yeah, we had him on. He
42:47
was great on the show. Well yeah, look,
42:49
he's super compelling. He's been crazy
42:51
successful in media. But as
42:54
his campaign is going here, Clay,
42:57
if some people are starting to say he's down almost
42:59
double digits defended, looks
43:02
like he doesn't, you know, look shaky and
43:05
he's not an old guy. He just looks shaky. He had a serious
43:07
health event recently. Yeah, he had a stroke.
43:09
And Fetterman cannot speak and
43:12
doctor Oz has challenged him to five
43:14
different debates. I don't think that Fetterman
43:16
is going to be able to debate. And I think
43:18
it's gonna be even more aggressive
43:21
in Pennsylvania trying to hide
43:23
him than they did with Joe Biden in
43:25
the twenty presidential
43:28
election, except Fetterman is even
43:30
in worse shape than Biden was, so Pennsylvania
43:32
is going to be a mess. We've got a big battle
43:35
going on in Wisconsin.
43:37
Georgia certainly we know about, and
43:40
Nevada. Hopefully New Hampshire can end up being
43:42
competitive. They're picking a nominee here soon and
43:46
and then Arizona. But if
43:48
you have been out there and you've been of the belief,
43:50
hey, there's a huge red wave coming, we
43:53
don't really need to worry about it too much. I don't
43:55
need to get active. I don't need to speak out
43:58
in the Senate in particular, that
44:00
is not necessarily going to be the case.
44:03
You need to be as aggressive as you can. We're speaking
44:05
to with this show, millions
44:07
of voters across the
44:09
country. We're speaking
44:11
to conservative and Republican
44:14
activists, people that are doing a lot of grassroots
44:16
organizing, people that are
44:19
fired up and try to create a
44:21
ground swell of support for the right candidates,
44:24
whether it's for the school board all the way up to Senate seats.
44:26
In this election, this
44:28
is not the time to coast. This
44:30
is when you know you're kicking
44:33
hard at the end of the race. This is when it's a
44:35
time to absolutely hit the afterburner
44:38
because it's looking pretty good. For Jade
44:40
events in Ohio. But it's not
44:42
a sure thing. It's very
44:44
tight. I think he's gonna be all
44:46
right, but La Salt, I think he's gonna
44:48
win in Nevada, but that one's gonna
44:50
be close. Blake Masters strong
44:53
candidate Steep Harald Decline against
44:55
Mark Kelly, the incumbent, and then you get
44:57
into Herschel v
45:00
Van Jones in Georgia and
45:02
arna Os versus Feederman in Pennsylvania.
45:05
Those are tough ones, man, those are Reverend
45:08
Warnock has been a has
45:12
been a poor candidate who managed
45:14
to win once. And we'll
45:16
see what We'll see what ends up happening
45:18
in that next one. And so
45:21
this is going to be a real
45:23
challenge to see exactly what's going
45:25
to happen there. And um,
45:28
I just I don't think you can
45:30
overrate how competitive
45:33
a bunch of these are going to be. And look this,
45:35
this this Rubio versus Val Dimmings
45:37
raced down in Florida is gonna get
45:39
trumpeted. So I just want you to hear from us
45:42
as these polls are coming out. We're gonna try to keep
45:44
you apprize of everything. And that's why
45:46
I think it's so important to stay focused on this, and
45:49
I look, I think, I know it's a Republican
45:51
seat, but not really up in Alaska. That's the
45:53
problem. You know, you know, you
45:55
win some, you lose some with Murkowski
45:57
on the Republican side, which is why I think Shamba
46:00
would be It really would
46:02
be almost like a Republican
46:04
pickup if she can win that seat, because
46:06
you can count so much more on her for
46:09
judicial nominees. You're talking about this, the
46:11
House goes to Republicans likely,
46:14
everyone thinks, so off your election. Okay,
46:17
great, that slows down the Biden
46:19
agenda for sure, and that's
46:21
a good thing, but it doesn't stop
46:24
it. And if you have a Supreme Court vacancy
46:26
or even just federal circuit
46:28
courts, that will be Oh, they will stack
46:31
these circuit courts with the
46:33
most activist left wing lunatics they
46:35
possibly can, and
46:38
they'll they'll put in more of these nominees
46:41
to head the federal agencies to
46:44
use those the fourth branch of government, the
46:46
federal agencies, to push Biden agenda
46:48
items. So a senators there,
46:50
it's obviously to say it's important as
46:52
an understatement, and it's obvious, but it's
46:56
not looking like it did a couple months ago where
46:59
you know, we're talking about the Red Wave, the Annihilation
47:01
play in May and June.
47:03
Yeah, Democrats, we knew
47:05
they had a bag of tricks and they're reaching deep
47:07
into it. Well. And look, the
47:10
other thing is if they control the Senate. I
47:13
hate to say it, but you never know. Clarence Thomas
47:15
seventy four years old. Buck, You've
47:18
got John Roberts. I mean he's coming up on
47:20
sixty eight. Alito is seventy
47:22
two, going on seventy three. There
47:24
are a lot of people out there. When
47:26
you get into your seventies, we
47:28
know this just happens. Unfortunately, people
47:31
can have unexpected health related issues.
47:33
And this is a real
47:35
issue in terms of being able
47:38
to be a check on the Biden administration
47:41
and their agenda. And it's
47:43
not going to be a cakewalk.
47:46
People need to be super active and aware
47:48
of how much of a battle this is going to be in
47:51
many parts of the country. One
47:53
can I ask you a question before we we're gonna go to break,
47:55
maybe if you want to come back to it, we can. That's
47:57
what we call it teas in the business. Is
48:00
it better for pure bare knuckle
48:03
political purposes if they're going
48:05
to indict Trump. Do
48:07
they want to do it before
48:10
this midterm election or
48:12
after to see how the chips
48:14
may fall on the midterm without poking
48:17
the bear further. Do you want to take that because
48:19
yeah, we'll talk about it. Ask me. I'm curious.
48:22
Yeah, I think the timing on the idea of
48:24
an indictment, if it were going to come before
48:26
or after the midterms, is a really interesting
48:28
one. We'll talk about it in a minute. We come back in
48:31
the meantime. This morning, a police officer
48:33
in Miami's in critical condition after being
48:35
shot last night on the job chasing
48:38
an armed robber. We could
48:40
bring you a story like this every day,
48:42
which is why Buck and I support the Tunnel the
48:44
Towers Foundation. They deliver
48:46
on their promise to never forget the sacrifices
48:49
of America's heroes. Those heroes
48:51
include first responders and our men and women
48:53
fighting the war on terror. NYPD
48:56
officer Familia is another example.
48:58
She couldn't wait to join the YPD protect
49:00
her community, but was ambushed in the line
49:03
of duty. She survived by three
49:05
kids, the oldest being twenty years old.
49:07
That daughter became the sole guardian and provider
49:09
for her twin siblings, who were twelve
49:12
years old at the time. Thanks to your
49:14
generosity, Tunnel of the Towers gave her
49:16
children a mortgage free home. For
49:18
some families, the foundation brings the comfort
49:20
of knowing they can stay in their home where
49:22
they make memories with their fallen loved
49:24
one. For other families, the foundation enables
49:27
new memories to be cherished forever. Help
49:29
our nation's greatest heroes and their
49:31
families by joining Buck and Me and
49:33
donating eleven dollars a month
