Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, second hour, Clay and Buck starts right now.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
We've got a lot of things going on in the
world of politics. As you know, you have the.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Showdown over the Kamala VP slot. Clay, I'll have you
know that I have purchased both Kamala's autobiography and an
official biography of Kamala.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Is this?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Oh, yes, for opposition You actually have it with you
for opposition research. The book does not play my friends,
I look at this, Oh, Kamala's way, the official africized
in American Life.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I'm gonna read it.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I'll give it to you afterwards. We're going to be
Kamala experts here on the show. We will know all
things Kamla. Oh, that's what this is my This is
my by the pool reading. I'm reading all about Kamala.
I'm going to know so much about being unburdened by
what has been that there'll be no burdens, and I
will have been with none of those burdens to have
(01:01):
carried forward with me in the future.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That's that's the thing that's going on. I can't actually
believe I had the book in my right in my
bag here.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
It's so funny. I was.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I wasn't believe we brought that for beach reading. People
are gonna think that you are the most diehard Kamala
Harris fan on the planet, because no, you're like, there's
like ten people who dislike Kamala Harris that would actually
read the Kamala Harris book. Was it? Was it a
curby your enthusiasm with the guy who changes the hat
from one team to another?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Is that a seinfelt? Where was the the hat changing
of the teams? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Anyway, Larry David did the wearing the Maga hat because
it would get him good seats in La Do you
remember that?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yes, yes, wearing the Maga hat. That's yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
So this is you know, if I'm in the wrong
part of town, if I'm having coffee at a place
run by a bunch of anarchists, which unfortunately the best
coffee is Crockett Coffee. But if you're in a store
in some downtown chances are the anarchists are running it.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
You know, maybe I pull out the Comma biography. Okay,
but why am I to talking about this? We'll because
Kamla is.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
The nominee for the Democrats. Now, why is Kamala the
nominee Seymour Hirsch, who is a longtime journalist. I think
he's had some if my understanding is that he's had
some big, big scoops and he's had some some misses
here in there as well. So that's why as you
(02:23):
give this story, the question of whether or not he's
right on this, yes, that that's why I'm prefacing this
because he's it's a lot of It's like that guy
who writes the incredibly best selling books, what's this is it?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Wolf?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I'm trying to think of Michael wolf Michael Wolfe who
writes these books where the sourcing is just his sourcing,
and he has these very compelling narratives of conversations that
happened in the Oval office or you know, in the
kitchen in Chappaqua at the Clinton's house or whatever. Right,
he just has these sources and the narrative is compelling.
But you know, if so Mu's He's going on all
(03:00):
their sources and you can't fact check any of it.
You're taking a lot on faith with the Seymour Hirsch
version of events. I just want to be very clear
always we are taking a lot on faith here, but
the basics are and Clay, you can you can help
pill this in if I miss this. Biden and I
just want to be clear my analysis of Biden and
(03:23):
the Biden family mindset, despite the fact that I'm already
having to save up to get ready for this stake
feast that I'll be buying for Clay. We've already picked.
It'll happen in September, so before the election. But my
analysis of Biden and Biden's family was, according to Hirsh
spot On, they were not going.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, Biden was not. And this is why I kept
saying to you, he's.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Not gonna go. He doesn't care. It's his game. He
doesn't He's gonna lose it his way. Biden wasn't going
after the debate. Before the debate, as we all know,
the Democrats well on board. There actually was not a
people saying, oh there was not some plot to replace
Biden be for the debate that did not exist. The
debate happens, it's a disaster. Then everyone also gets into
(04:10):
this frenzy. Then Biden says, screw it, I'm the guy.
I'm not going anywhere as exactly, and Hunter Hunter gets it,
that's the cash cow. He's not going to give up
the cash cow. Come on, pop, you gotta you know,
the Chinese aren't gonna send me lots of money, and
the Ukrainian oligarchs aren't going to pay me to do
nothing if you're not, you know, still in office or
(04:31):
at least trying to be.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And they wanted more time, I.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Think, to cash out regardless, right, the Biden orbit and
then the donors started pulling promised funds. And he writes
that Seymour Hursch writes at the big three, and this
is certainly the case of Pelosi, Schuber, Hakeem, Jeffries. He
first of them as the big three in the Democrat Party.
When they saw the dollars being withheld by the big donors,
(04:56):
it became real to them and they knew they had
to act. And once they were willing to act, Barack
Obama stepped in. Now this is the part that, by
the way, I think all of that is pretty much
a matter of record. I don't think any of that
is that's accurate, that's not contrue, None of that is
everything To this point, everyone agrees that's really a timeline. Okay,
(05:17):
that's a timeline of what has happened. So Hersch writes
about that in his substack, which has now gone pretty viral,
and everyone's you know, talking about it. Where it gets
interesting is that Barack Obama and you can call us
and tell us do you agree or disagree with this?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
But I thought, remember we did.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
That whole article was in a tablet magazine where they're
talking about all the advisors from the Biden White House
still going to Obama's Colorama, DC mansion, which is about
a ten minute cab ride from the from the White House.
Heard of for a former president to stay in DC
except for if they have young kids and they're finishing
school or something like that, and that was initially the
(05:56):
argument for why the Obama stayed there. Now their kids
are all off to college and they've stayed. Yes, So
that raised some eyebrows. We've talked about that. I completely
believe that no one has questioned that reporting. In fact,
there's been no pushback that that was the case. That
senior Biden advisors and the media will not report on
it because they'd like this to be kind of quiet.
Have been going back and forth to the Colorama A mansion.
(06:18):
Obama's mansion the entire one of many mansions by the
way the entire time that Biden's been in office. Then
the big push happens. Obama calls Joe Biden and says,
Kamala and the rest of the cabinet are ready to
invoke the twenty fifth. You either step down or you
(06:39):
will be removed from duties pending. I know they have
to then push it to Congress. And you know, removing
a president, even with the twenty fifth, and removing a
president takes more than just even the cabinet, right, And
so they use the specter of the twenty fifth Amendment
to push Barack. Obama did personally to Biden to push
him out. Do you this, Clay, And what is your
(07:01):
level of certainty if you do or do not? So
I tweeted that my theory why Biden suddenly changed his
mind was that they threatened to twenty fifth amendment him.
But as soon as the news happened on that day,
because I agree with you that Biden wasn't going softly,
he wasn't going graciously, he wasn't going willingly.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
He wasn't going I mean in his mind, he wasn't
going correct.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
So the only thing I could think was either he
had some sort of medical condition that was more significant
than they were letting on, which led to a lot
of discussion because we didn't see him for a week
and they said he had COVID. But why on Sunday
morning would his top campaign advisors be going on all
of the Sunday morning talk shows arguing that Joe Biden
(07:49):
was staying committed. Why would he decide to announce on
a sun Was it Saturday? Sunday afternoon? I think right
Sunday afternoon about one forty five he suddenly posts like
what felt to me like kind of a hastily written
letter on his own personal letterhead, not White House stationary,
which seems strange. It was not planned everyone that's that
(08:10):
it was not rolled out the way that he would
have wanted it to be. And then a different tweet
where he endorsed Kamala Harris than in his letter, which
felt strange.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Again.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
When LBJ dropped out, he gave an Oval Office address.
I know Biden eventually got around to doing the Oval
Office address.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Was it Wednesday night?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I think three days after he actually dropped out. Before
he actually gave that address, something to me had to
happen to get him to change his mind. And so
My theory was the twenty fifth Amendments. Now do you
think that Obama? Wait wait so yeah, okay, you haven't
answered the part. Do you think Obama called and threatened
(08:51):
the twenty fifth Amendment against him? That's the question I
asked you.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Yeah, I don't think. Oh, I don't buy that part.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Because that's that is that is pretty intense stockbuster. I
think somebody question threatened the twenty fifth Amendment. And now,
just to be clear everyone, because I know we talk
about these things. So Section four of the twenty fifth
Amendment allows the vice president and either the Cabinet or
a body approved by law formed by Congress to jointly
agree the president's unable to charge the powers and discharge
(09:18):
the powers and duties of his office. It's meant for
when a president's incapacitated. Yeah, president has a stroke, he
can't agree for the twenty fifth Amendment. So they were,
if this were true, they were effectively saying, Joe, we're
gonna treat it like you have already had a stroke
and are not of sound mind. But to remove him
from office, then you have to get two thirds of
(09:42):
Congress to go along with it. Unable to serve due
to a condition perceived by the Vice President, the cabinet,
et cetera, to stop him from his duties.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
So, you know, do you believe it.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Do you think Obama called and told him basically, the
political hit has happened, it's time you have to step
down something.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I'm going to tell you.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I believe that Obama called him. I do not believe
Obama threatened to use the twenty fifth Amendment. And here's why.
It's not that it's not that the Democrats are like
above that kind of strong arming. They love that kind
of strong arm, and they hate this whole voting thing
and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. You know,
(10:23):
if they get strong arm. They had strong arm all day.
I think it's because they recognize that. Biden's response, because
this is what I had thought. Biden's responds to we're
going to vote the twenty fifth amendment, is you are
guaranteeing a Democrat loss in the fall, because that would
be such a breach of trust with the American people.
(10:43):
The Democrat Party would have engaged in presenting somebody who
you have to then basically say is I mean crazy
isn't the right word, But you know, sinility and crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Are not that far.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I mean, it's a dysfunctional brain, right, Yes, I think
that would have been you know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So I think it was the donors are all pulling.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
And then I think it was what we initially believed,
which was they said, look, Jill oh Man the Presidential
Library that she's the and the and the foundation, the
half a million dollars she can draw from the foundation
for the next fifty years, and and you know, and
Hunter's going to be taking care of X y Z.
(11:24):
That's door number And door number two is you keep
doing this. We don't have the money we need, and
we make sure that no Biden will ever get any
freebee cash anywhere ever, for the rest of their lives.
I think that's how it went down.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah, and the pressure.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I always thought the one thing that would be non negotiable,
and I still feel this way is I think Biden
has too much pride to leave before his term is up.
When he's not. I mean, if he died or something
happened right where, that's clear. But I think that that
embarrassment of Trump beating him so bad in the in
the debate that he has to get on a helicopter
(11:58):
and do the Richard Nixon peace sign and fly off
and think about the moving vans are going to pull
up and take all your possessions out of it. I
think that they negotiated this big sort of severance for
lack of a better way, through the Foundation, through the
Presidential Library, all those things for the Biden family. And
I think also, hey, we'll let you finish your term
(12:19):
because you have noticed Kamala now as the nominee. There's
almost no talk about Kamala Now ascending. Most of the
Biden's not healthy enough commentary has overnight vanished in much
of the meetia, and that is a huge problem. It
feels like we're too busy with insanity in politics these
days to follow all of the threads, all of the madness.
(12:41):
But I'll just say this, Kamala should be president right now.
And that's a crazy thing to say out loud, but
it's far more capable than Biden is the admit if
you can't be president in January, you can't be president now.
If it's a cognitive function issue, which is what they've
effectively admitted, you shouldn't be in charge right And if
(13:04):
it was, he's going to be too old. Well, they've
known he was going to be that age the whole time.
The difference is the lack of cognition, not the number.
And the cognition collapse that we saw is indicative of
somebody who shouldn't be in office anymore. Now.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah, and we're just.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
All kind of sitting around going, Okay, I guess he
gets to continue on and do what he's doing. I
agree with you, By the way, I think that that
was another condition for him because the narrative will we
see it as the knockout punch of the election everything else.
Biden knows He's savvy enough, even in his current state,
to know if he finishes out his term come with
(13:42):
May he the loss will go on Kamala's record. If
Kamala wins, he's a hero. If he loses, it's on
her to a large a caress. And if he and
and when people look back on this, they will say, oh, well,
you know, it was just to you know, it was
just the troubles of old age.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, it was no you know, the woman they're already
trying to compare him course Washington. But that's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Would the whole reality of the of the false. Uh,
the false narrative that he was fine. Yeah, that will
be forgotten, that will be memory hold. Then it'll just
be oh, he found you know, he was too old.
And then kam La took over. No big deal, she
became the nomina. Unless this story gets written by somebody
other than Seymour Hirsch, right, like if the New York
Times or the Washington Post wrote this, And I don't
(14:25):
know that they would because I think they would see
it as damaging so much of the Democrat brand. Seymour
Hirsh eighty seven years old. I was doing research on
him during the commercial break. Has broken a lot of
big stories.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
That's what I said. He's broken some big stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
He's some people have said he's gone a little over
his skis on a few things, but he's broken some
big stuff. And I would just say this, Clay Biden
wasn't going everybody, Okay, I know you now it sounds
like I'm just like the crazy man.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
It was a he really wasn't. He wasn't going to
get him.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Something happened beyond just bad polls and threats from don't owners.
Someone was able to say and people. Last week there
was this meme going around that Biden had like severe COVID,
was in the hospital. Maybe wasn't going to make it.
We're thinking of all these crazy things. I don't think
that's what it was. I think that he just finally
they made him the offer that he couldn't refuse. And
Obama would be quite a person to present that offer.
(15:17):
You know when cities across America today, women and men
working at the preborn clinics come to work each day
with the same mission, save the lives of unborn babies
at the risk of losing their lives to abortion. The
work being done at each preborn clinic is so important
and it's powerful.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
It's not easy.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
There's a lot of emotion, a lot of conversation and contemplation.
These women need support, but so often the Preborn team
prevails and the choice for life is made. In their
eighteen years of existence, Preborn has helped us save the
lives of two hundred and eighty thousand babies. Most often,
that happens just after a pregnant mother meets her child
through an ultrasound. When a mother hears that heartbeat, sees
(15:57):
those little fingers and toes, and witnesses the movement she
feels throughout the day a decision for life over abortion
takes place. If you have the means, would you consider
a leadership gift. It's a five thousand dollars tax deductible
gift that would sponsor Preborn's entire network of clinics for
twenty four hours. Look, I know, five thousand dollars a
lot of money. I'm not asking everybody listening to you know,
(16:17):
if you could get five dollars, they'd be great. And
if you can't get five dollars, I understand. But there
are a handful of you listening right now across this
great nation for from a five thousand dollars tax exempt
gift to save hundreds of babies' lives. Two hundred is
what they believe it would be in just one day
with your five thousand dollars tax deductible donation. Think about that.
Is there a better way that you could donate five
grand than to save two hundred babies? To donate, dial
(16:41):
pound two five zero, say the keyword baby. By the way,
if you can donate five dollars, bless you and thank you,
and you are helping this mission too. Anyone can do
it right now. Dial pound two five zero, say the
keyword baby, or if you want to just do it online,
that's what I've done. Go to preborn dot com, slash Buck,

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Stories are Freedom Stories of America, inspirational stories that you
unite us all each day. Spend time with Clay and
find them.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
On the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
All right, welcome back in.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I want to talk to you about the effort that
is underway to place Kamala Harris on the spectrum of
law enforcement severity, as in, is she pro writers in
the streets and anarchy on your neighborhood or is she
tough on crime? You're gonna want to hear this because
(17:40):
I think this is very important. And the short answer
is she's part of why California has been ruined as
a state in recent years. I'll break that all down
for you here coming up in just a minute, as
Clay and Buck continues, But I've got to speak to
my fellow firearms owners for a minute.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Here.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Give me an esthmate, what do you think a good
new costs? What about a really good nine millimeter? I
mean I'm talking about a pistol that you can count
on at the range or for any reason. Well, I'm
telling you right now, an ar can go over one
thousand bucks, maybe two grand. It can get really expensive,
and what's it really worth? I mean, what do you need?
(18:19):
Bear Creek Arsenal, my friends, is where you need to
go to find the best rifles at the best prices.
You will be blown away when you see how good
the pricing is on Bear Creek Arsenal farms. They're fantastic.
For hundreds of dollars, not up in the thousands, you
can get a fantastic ar or pistol. I've got a
(18:39):
handful of ars. I mean, well, yes, true, but I've
got a handful of Bear Creek Arsenal stuff at home myself.
Go to the website. Go to Bearcreekarsenal dot com. Incredible
sales this month, so it's ending.
Speaker 2 (18:51):

Speaker 2 (18:57):
Welcome back into Clay and Buck. Now let me tell
you something.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Well, actually I was going to dive into the Kamala
Harris thing, but first off, Clay, this is getting a
lot of attention over the weekend. If you and I
did this, I texted our team's screenshot from my phone
the same thing. I know exactly what you're want to say.
Clay did the same thing. So you can test this out. Obviously,
not while you're driving, safety first, but if you were
to Google on your phone assassination attempt on and as
(19:27):
you know, most of us have our Google set to
fill in some likely basically the most common searches that happen.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
As you do that.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Now, I think most of us would assume, given recent events,
there's a likelihood that if you put an assassination attempt on.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Trump's name would pop up.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
You know, it's in the news, it just happened. But
no assassination attempt on Google currently brings up Reagan Hitler,
John Paul the Second, Lennon Truman, Gerald Ford. It does
not bring up Donald Trump's name. Now, as you know,
(20:12):
usually search results in this all the complicated algorithm and
all the rest of it are supposed to favor what
is being recently searched and has been a major issue
in the news for obvious reasons. Right, you know, if
a plane just went down and two hundred people died,
(20:33):
and I googled plane crash. My expectation is that it
would be the plane crash that just happened, not one
from thirty years ago, Right, Clay. I know that they're
gonna tell us or actually it's Google. They probably won't
say anything that's too rich and powerful.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
They don't really care.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
But if they were forced to answer, they would say, oh,
this is just the algorithm.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
It's not like anything on purpose to me. They are
trying to memory hold the assassination attempt on Donald Trump
from this campaign, and then they will slowly but surely
wipe it from history, Soviet style, to the greatest degree
possible in the digital realm, which unfortunately has become the
(21:16):
primary repository for all official record. It's even worse than
what you said, Buck, because I'm testing it right now
and it still does it. If you type in assassination
attempt on t r Um, it fills in Truman.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Oh my god, I didn't know that, so.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
You even if you put in four of the five,
I didn't even know that there was. I don't think
the only reason I think that you see, like assassination
attempt on.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Truth wothing new. I didn't even know about that. One.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
But this is a big deal. And I understand a
lot of you are thankfully very well informed. But imagine
if you are a low information voter and you trust
Google to give you information, and maybe you're buying into
this left wing theory that's out there that Trump wasn't
actually shot. Maybe you're seeing that on some social platforms,
(22:13):
and so you want to go do research on whether Trump.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Was actually shot. Wow, this is in Truman.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Is this crazy that.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
You would That is crazy?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
But I will admit to it to a point of
historical historical ignorance on my part, which I am, this
is very interesting. In nineteen fifty Puerto Rican, I mean
they say independence activists on Wikipedia, terrorists Oscar Colazzo and
Grisello Grisellio Torrissella attempted to assassinate President Truman at the
(22:50):
Blair House during the renovation of the White House. They
were stopped before they could get in. One mortally wounded
a White House White House police officer, Leslie Koefeldt, who
killed him and return fire. Secret Service agents wounded one
of the assassins. Truman was upstairs and not harmed. Two
days before the assassination attempt, Puerto Rican nationalists tempted to
(23:12):
overthrow the government of Puerto Rico. Uprisings occurred in many towns,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So this was about wow.
And in nineteen seventy nine, President Jimmy Carter commuted the
sentence to time served of one of the assassins. I
didn't know that story at all, I'll be honest, because
maybe Google at least helped in that time. I mean,
(23:33):
usually when I think about sketchy stuff going on with
Puerto Rican terrorists, it's Hillary Clinton, who remember she was
all in favor of having Bill Clinton commute the sentences
of some Puerto Rican terrorists a fire members so she
could become a Senator in New York because she needed
the Puerto Rican vote. I got to check on that
because I was a kid when that happened. But I
think that was a real thing. So what's what's wild
(23:54):
here is again we talk a lot about fairness and elections.
We talk about making sure that only citizens are voting,
all of these things that are integral to our democracy.
What big tech is able to do is still under
discussed now. Thankfully, Elon Musk has bought x slash Twitter,
(24:16):
whatever you want to call it, and there is more
of a fair marketplace of ideas there and Buck, I'm
sure you see and I do enjoy there are community
notes that will be placed beneath stories that now appear
on Twitter, where people will say, actually, this is the truth,
this is the fact. Or for instance, recently, the media
(24:38):
was trying to say that Kamala Harris didn't raise money
to help bail out people who were rioting during BLM protests.
In the summer of twenty it was Bill Clinton commuted
the sentences of not to interrupt you just Bill Clinton
commuted the sentences of twelve Puerto Rican separatist terrorists in
nineteen ninety nine, and it was believed that this was
(25:01):
helpful for Hillary and New York, though I think Hillary
actually publicly said she disagreed with this because she didn't
want to seem like a quid pro quo.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
But yes, Bill released a much of.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
It because there's Puerto Rican voters and million was running
for Senate. Thought people realized there's a million Puerto Ricans
in New York City. It's well, the Puerto Rican Parade
is quite a fiesta. Well, and people thought that we
talked about this recently that the Hillary Rudy Donnie Brooke
was going to be one of the most expensive battle
in the Senate history, right because Rudy Giuliani was going
(25:31):
to be the match, and they tossed in Rick Lazio
and Hillary Clinton won that one comfortably. But what I
was saying on the on the big tech censorship front
is Twitter is helping and they'll, for instance, Kamala Harris
raising money for BLM, they'll when they try to pretend
that didn't happen, there will be links in this case
directly to her actual Twitter profile with still active ability
(25:54):
to donate. But the power of Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google
to give prominent placement and search related preference to Democrats
is one of the great untold stories of elections in general,
because there are stories out there, studies out there that
(26:18):
show that the way that big tech treats Democrat policies
compared to Republican policies, and Democrat and Republican candidates especially
worth millions of votes just based on how people starve.
Oh I think Democrats get five to ten percent of
the overall vote attributable to traditional news media and tech
(26:40):
social media as well I think that's absolutely the case,
and they will spread things that are one hundred percent untrue.
I think we've got the audio. Maybe we can play
this when we come back. But the suggestion that Trump
made to Christians when he was joking, he jokingly said, hey,
if you vote in this election, you won't have to
vote in any other election because we're going to fix everything,
(27:00):
or phrasing him. We'll play that audio for you. But
they took the left wing media did that audio. They
edited out the part where he's joking and saying because
we're gonna fix everything and you won't even need to
vote anymore, to oh, this is Trump telling everyone that
he's never going to leave office, which is the story
that they try to tell over and over and over again.
(27:22):
So we will play that audio for you guys when
we come back. And I think it's just so interesting
how they choose to share what he says. Can we
talk about cop Cop Cop Kamala when we come back
in the third hour, in the third hour, because I
think that's I think that's important because I've been worried
that Republicans are going to go in the wrong direction
on this one and say she's tough on crime. Don't
(27:44):
ever hit a democrat for being tough on crime. And
she wasn't tough on crime.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
She was horrible. But we'll get to that in the
third hour, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
In the meantime, I want to tell you I'm leaving
on Friday for Israel. I'm going to be doing the
show from Israel next week. You all know that it's
an absolute tender box over there. You probably have seen
that Hesbola killed. I believe the number right now is
twelve innocent young people, many of whom we're playing on
a soccer field, by sending a rocket into Israel. So
(28:15):
in addition to Hamas killing twelve hundred Jews, also Hesbola
is constantly attacking as well, and every now and then
one of these missiles, unfortunately lands, and it has devastating consequences.
And so I want to tell all of you that
the IFCJ is making a tremendous differ difference in Israel.
(28:36):
I'm going to see it for myself next week, but
what you have seen already gives you a sense of
how difficult it is. And they've been doing it for
four decades, more than forty years working on the ground
in Israel within hours of the attack last October seventh,
and every day since. The IFCJ has been feeding the
hungry and protecting the vulnerable. We need to help them,
(28:57):
and one solid way to do it is through human
sanitarian efforts provided by the IFCJ. You can support Israel
through the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Learn more
by visiting their website. SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's support IFCJ

Speaker 3 (29:17):
News and politics, but also a little comic relief. Clay
Travis at buck Sexton find them on the free iHeartRadio
app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. All right,
you were asking a good question, Buck, Kamala Harris and
how you handle her prosecutorial background. And I've seen some
haphazard attacks from a variety of perspectives.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
The way I think to.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Attack her is by focusing almost exclusively on defund the police,
on her raising money for BLM protesters to bail them out,
on her suggestion that they weren't doing anything wrong. Those
are incredible vulnerabilities. Well, I can I can take you
to a whole nother realm of this criticism take you
(30:08):
down another pathway. Kamala when she was Attorney General in
twenty fourteen Attorney General for the state of California, was
a huge champion of all the Californians are saying it
Proposition forty seven Prop forty seven, which over the weekend
I went into and read a bit in between my
reading of Kamala's official autobiography, biography really has for We're
(30:34):
at a resort here doing an event for advertisers for
the show. Buck brought his pool reading the Kamala biography
Kamala Harris. Oh, absolutely, my Kamala biography. I'm gonna make
new friends. It's going to be great.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
They'd be like, hey, man, I's going to destroy the country.
I'll be like, yes, right, I'm not gonna have kids
because of climate change anyway. Yes, it is.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
It is a truth that Kamala Harris was a big
proponent back to California in twenty fourteen of Prop forty seven,
and I was reading Prop forty s. Prop forty seven,
for those who don't know, basically decriminalizes all shoplifting. I
want to know why you can steal up to nine
hundred dollars under the law in California Proposition forty seven.
I want to know why a lot of people had
(31:18):
their sentences or their crimes reclassified after the fact, after
they went through judicial process. Basically it made it so
that criminals would be punished less for everything, and no
one cares about the victims and the rest of it.
I'd also know, Clay, it's not like anyone can tell
whether you know, I don't care what story you're operating.
Is someone stealing seven hundred and seventy two dollars worth
(31:41):
of stuff or someone stealing.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
One thousand dollars worth of stuff.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You end up just not calling the police, period, because
who wants to deal with the headache. You either enforced
laws against stealing or you don't. But my point here
is not only was Kamala a major proponent of this,
there was there was a miss. The whole thing was
a scam. And they do this with ballot initiatives, particularly
(32:04):
in these blue states.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
They've done it.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
To the pro life community with abortion. Is that you
don't know what you're really voting for. Yeah, Like Prop
forty seven is one hundred and thirty something pages. I
was reading it over the weekend, and it's a big document.
It's not just like something you could sit down and
read in five minutes. And so the title matters a lot.
The ballot title was criminal Sentences, misdemeanor penalties, and they
(32:29):
talked about it as a as a safety bill. They
talked about it as something that would improve overall safety,
when all it did was make everybody less accountable for
the crimes. Criminals is less accountable for the crimes they committed.
So yeah, I mean it's a total, a total mess.
(32:51):
Brought down drug charges. Basically it meant you won't get
arrested for drugs, for selling drugs, for stealing things, for
a whole range of crime. And this is what they
deal with now in California, and this has been she
is part of ruining her home state. She was at
the forefront of Proposition forty seven and people should know that.
And I believe it's on the ballot this fall in
(33:13):
California to repeal Proposition forty seven.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yes it is.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Proposition is thirty six in fact, So they're trying to
repeal this because think about it, if you're listening to
us in California right now, there are lots of places
where you go shop that they basically have put everything
under lock and key. And this happened to you in
New York City, like where you would go your name,
my drugs, my drug store, the one that I would
(33:39):
go to to you know, get paper towels past, No,
you have to you have to buzz and the person
walks over. They got to open the plastic and the
whole thing is just so demeaning. It's de meaning for me,
it's you meaning for the staff. It's such a waste
of time. But they just steal, steal and steal more,
uh and and there's no consequences for it, no penalties
for it. So I just I think it's interesting because
(34:00):
it's a miss. It would be a mistake for Republicans
to attack Kamala for being tough on crime, and it's wrong.
So not only is it dumb strategy, it's untrue. Yes,
you know it's it's worse than just a blunder, it's
a lie. So I think that that's something that hopefully
that Trump campaign everybody else is going to be dialed
(34:21):
in on because the all the mayhem you see on
the streets in San Francisco, in La and you know
even La, well that's time I was in La Man
a lot of like the tense city stuff. Although you
know Gavin Newsom he swept in the Supreme Court said
you could do. Supreme Court has now cleared the way
for them to clear the streets. I think they didn't
want to do it before and they're doing it now.
(34:42):
So anyway, we we'll see. We'll see how how that
ends up checking out. I thought this was instinct too.
We have a caller, Kim in Virginia says Facebook is
blocking the image of Trump high story. I have a
friend book, I have a friend in our business. I
didn't ask to say this on air, so I never
say things. But I have a friend in our business
who texted me and she said she showed me that
(35:05):
her Instagram was blocked on this issue. Yeah, of Trump,
of the Trump fist on the stage raising his fist,
and Instagram Facebook obviously the same company owned. But it's
all meta. They say that it's an altered image. It's
not an altered image. It's a real image. It's a badass, timeless,
amazing image. And they're saying that you can't share it. Gee,
(35:28):
I wonder why, And just till everyan's clear, because I
think Clay's been getting some pushback on this, or I
have too. We're not saying you can't find assassination attempt
on Trump. We're saying what they fill in the blank
with when you begin to type it in is a
whole bunch of other things. Google autofill for those of
you who haven't really thought much about it. If you
are sitting in front of your phone right now and
(35:49):
you go to Google and you start to type something in,
sometimes it'll fill in something that you might have been
to before. Right But if you type in you can
try it yourself. I did it live on the air.
I tested it yesterday when the story started to go.
Unless they've changed it in the last five minutes. If
you type in assassination attempt on Trum, don't finish it.
(36:13):
Don't finish Trump. It will fill in Truman they are telling,
which is what we ended up talking about, the assassination
attempt on Harry Truman.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
That is what it will fill in.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So you have to perfectly put the query in in
order for it to work. It's not filling in what
you would think. Buck is a far more common search
term right now. If you're just saying, okay, well, that's
what people are searching for. There aren't a lot of
people searching for Harry Truman assassination stories, so they are
(36:44):
neglecting to auto fill something that I think they believe
is positive for Trump. It's not accidental. This is algorithmic manipulation.
Talk about the Supreme Court, by the way, what's going
on there when we come back
All right, second hour, Clay and Buck starts right now.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
We've got a lot of things going on in the
world of politics. As you know, you have the.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Showdown over the Kamala VP slot. Clay, I'll have you
know that I have purchased both Kamala's autobiography and an
official biography of Kamala.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Is this?
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Oh, yes, for opposition You actually have it with you
for opposition research. The book does not play my friends,
I look at this, Oh, Kamala's way, the official africized
in American Life.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
I'm gonna read it.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
I'll give it to you afterwards. We're going to be
Kamala experts here on the show. We will know all
things Kamla. Oh, that's what this is my This is
my by the pool reading. I'm reading all about Kamala.
I'm going to know so much about being unburdened by
what has been that there'll be no burdens, and I
will have been with none of those burdens to have
(01:01):
carried forward with me in the future.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That's that's the thing that's going on. I can't actually
believe I had the book in my right in my
bag here.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
It's so funny. I was.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I wasn't believe we brought that for beach reading. People
are gonna think that you are the most diehard Kamala
Harris fan on the planet, because no, you're like, there's
like ten people who dislike Kamala Harris that would actually
read the Kamala Harris book. Was it? Was it a
curby your enthusiasm with the guy who changes the hat
from one team to another?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Is that a seinfelt? Where was the the hat changing
of the teams? Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Anyway, Larry David did the wearing the Maga hat because
it would get him good seats in La Do you
remember that?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yes, yes, wearing the Maga hat. That's yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
So this is you know, if I'm in the wrong
part of town, if I'm having coffee at a place
run by a bunch of anarchists, which unfortunately the best
coffee is Crockett Coffee. But if you're in a store
in some downtown chances are the anarchists are running it.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
You know, maybe I pull out the Comma biography. Okay,
but why am I to talking about this? We'll because
Kamla is.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
The nominee for the Democrats. Now, why is Kamala the
nominee Seymour Hirsch, who is a longtime journalist. I think
he's had some if my understanding is that he's had
some big, big scoops and he's had some some misses
here in there as well. So that's why as you
(02:23):
give this story, the question of whether or not he's
right on this, yes, that that's why I'm prefacing this
because he's it's a lot of It's like that guy
who writes the incredibly best selling books, what's this is it?
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Wolf?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I'm trying to think of Michael wolf Michael Wolfe who
writes these books where the sourcing is just his sourcing,
and he has these very compelling narratives of conversations that
happened in the Oval office or you know, in the
kitchen in Chappaqua at the Clinton's house or whatever. Right,
he just has these sources and the narrative is compelling.
But you know, if so Mu's He's going on all
(03:00):
their sources and you can't fact check any of it.
You're taking a lot on faith with the Seymour Hirsch
version of events. I just want to be very clear
always we are taking a lot on faith here, but
the basics are and Clay, you can you can help
pill this in if I miss this. Biden and I
just want to be clear my analysis of Biden and
(03:23):
the Biden family mindset, despite the fact that I'm already
having to save up to get ready for this stake
feast that I'll be buying for Clay. We've already picked.
It'll happen in September, so before the election. But my
analysis of Biden and Biden's family was, according to Hirsh
spot On, they were not going.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, Biden was not. And this is why I kept
saying to you, he's.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Not gonna go. He doesn't care. It's his game. He
doesn't He's gonna lose it his way. Biden wasn't going
after the debate. Before the debate, as we all know,
the Democrats well on board. There actually was not a
people saying, oh there was not some plot to replace
Biden be for the debate that did not exist. The
debate happens, it's a disaster. Then everyone also gets into
(04:10):
this frenzy. Then Biden says, screw it, I'm the guy.
I'm not going anywhere as exactly, and Hunter Hunter gets it,
that's the cash cow. He's not going to give up
the cash cow. Come on, pop, you gotta you know,
the Chinese aren't gonna send me lots of money, and
the Ukrainian oligarchs aren't going to pay me to do
nothing if you're not, you know, still in office or
(04:31):
at least trying to be.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And they wanted more time, I.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Think, to cash out regardless, right, the Biden orbit and
then the donors started pulling promised funds. And he writes
that Seymour Hursch writes at the big three, and this
is certainly the case of Pelosi, Schuber, Hakeem, Jeffries. He
first of them as the big three in the Democrat Party.
When they saw the dollars being withheld by the big donors,
(04:56):
it became real to them and they knew they had
to act. And once they were willing to act, Barack
Obama stepped in. Now this is the part that, by
the way, I think all of that is pretty much
a matter of record. I don't think any of that
is that's accurate, that's not contrue, None of that is
everything To this point, everyone agrees that's really a timeline. Okay,
(05:17):
that's a timeline of what has happened. So Hersch writes
about that in his substack, which has now gone pretty viral,
and everyone's you know, talking about it. Where it gets
interesting is that Barack Obama and you can call us
and tell us do you agree or disagree with this?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
But I thought, remember we did.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
That whole article was in a tablet magazine where they're
talking about all the advisors from the Biden White House
still going to Obama's Colorama, DC mansion, which is about
a ten minute cab ride from the from the White House.
Heard of for a former president to stay in DC
except for if they have young kids and they're finishing
school or something like that, and that was initially the
(05:56):
argument for why the Obama stayed there. Now their kids
are all off to college and they've stayed. Yes, So
that raised some eyebrows. We've talked about that. I completely
believe that no one has questioned that reporting. In fact,
there's been no pushback that that was the case. That
senior Biden advisors and the media will not report on
it because they'd like this to be kind of quiet.
Have been going back and forth to the Colorama A mansion.
(06:18):
Obama's mansion the entire one of many mansions by the
way the entire time that Biden's been in office. Then
the big push happens. Obama calls Joe Biden and says,
Kamala and the rest of the cabinet are ready to
invoke the twenty fifth. You either step down or you
(06:39):
will be removed from duties pending. I know they have
to then push it to Congress. And you know, removing
a president, even with the twenty fifth, and removing a
president takes more than just even the cabinet, right, And
so they use the specter of the twenty fifth Amendment
to push Barack. Obama did personally to Biden to push
him out. Do you this, Clay, And what is your
(07:01):
level of certainty if you do or do not? So
I tweeted that my theory why Biden suddenly changed his
mind was that they threatened to twenty fifth amendment him.
But as soon as the news happened on that day,
because I agree with you that Biden wasn't going softly,
he wasn't going graciously, he wasn't going willingly.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
He wasn't going I mean in his mind, he wasn't
going correct.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
So the only thing I could think was either he
had some sort of medical condition that was more significant
than they were letting on, which led to a lot
of discussion because we didn't see him for a week
and they said he had COVID. But why on Sunday
morning would his top campaign advisors be going on all
of the Sunday morning talk shows arguing that Joe Biden
(07:49):
was staying committed. Why would he decide to announce on
a sun Was it Saturday? Sunday afternoon? I think right
Sunday afternoon about one forty five he suddenly posts like
what felt to me like kind of a hastily written
letter on his own personal letterhead, not White House stationary,
which seems strange. It was not planned everyone that's that
(08:10):
it was not rolled out the way that he would
have wanted it to be. And then a different tweet
where he endorsed Kamala Harris than in his letter, which
felt strange.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Again.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
When LBJ dropped out, he gave an Oval Office address.
I know Biden eventually got around to doing the Oval
Office address.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Was it Wednesday night?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
I think three days after he actually dropped out. Before
he actually gave that address, something to me had to
happen to get him to change his mind. And so
My theory was the twenty fifth Amendments. Now do you
think that Obama? Wait wait so yeah, okay, you haven't
answered the part. Do you think Obama called and threatened
(08:51):
the twenty fifth Amendment against him? That's the question I
asked you.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Yeah, I don't think. Oh, I don't buy that part.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Because that's that is that is pretty intense stockbuster. I
think somebody question threatened the twenty fifth Amendment. And now,
just to be clear everyone, because I know we talk
about these things. So Section four of the twenty fifth
Amendment allows the vice president and either the Cabinet or
a body approved by law formed by Congress to jointly
agree the president's unable to charge the powers and discharge
(09:18):
the powers and duties of his office. It's meant for
when a president's incapacitated. Yeah, president has a stroke, he
can't agree for the twenty fifth Amendment. So they were,
if this were true, they were effectively saying, Joe, we're
gonna treat it like you have already had a stroke
and are not of sound mind. But to remove him
from office, then you have to get two thirds of
(09:42):
Congress to go along with it. Unable to serve due
to a condition perceived by the Vice President, the cabinet,
et cetera, to stop him from his duties.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
So, you know, do you believe it.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
Do you think Obama called and told him basically, the
political hit has happened, it's time you have to step
down something.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
I'm going to tell you.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
I believe that Obama called him. I do not believe
Obama threatened to use the twenty fifth Amendment. And here's why.
It's not that it's not that the Democrats are like
above that kind of strong arming. They love that kind
of strong arm, and they hate this whole voting thing
and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. You know,
(10:23):
if they get strong arm. They had strong arm all day.
I think it's because they recognize that. Biden's response, because
this is what I had thought. Biden's responds to we're
going to vote the twenty fifth amendment, is you are
guaranteeing a Democrat loss in the fall, because that would
be such a breach of trust with the American people.
(10:43):
The Democrat Party would have engaged in presenting somebody who
you have to then basically say is I mean crazy
isn't the right word, But you know, sinility and crazy.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Are not that far.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I mean, it's a dysfunctional brain, right, Yes, I think
that would have been you know, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So I think it was the donors are all pulling.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
And then I think it was what we initially believed,
which was they said, look, Jill oh Man the Presidential
Library that she's the and the and the foundation, the
half a million dollars she can draw from the foundation
for the next fifty years, and and you know, and
Hunter's going to be taking care of X y Z.
(11:24):
That's door number And door number two is you keep
doing this. We don't have the money we need, and
we make sure that no Biden will ever get any
freebee cash anywhere ever, for the rest of their lives.
I think that's how it went down.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Yeah, and the pressure.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I always thought the one thing that would be non negotiable,
and I still feel this way is I think Biden
has too much pride to leave before his term is up.
When he's not. I mean, if he died or something
happened right where, that's clear. But I think that that
embarrassment of Trump beating him so bad in the in
the debate that he has to get on a helicopter
(11:58):
and do the Richard Nixon peace sign and fly off
and think about the moving vans are going to pull
up and take all your possessions out of it. I
think that they negotiated this big sort of severance for
lack of a better way, through the Foundation, through the
Presidential Library, all those things for the Biden family. And
I think also, hey, we'll let you finish your term
(12:19):
because you have noticed Kamala now as the nominee. There's
almost no talk about Kamala Now ascending. Most of the
Biden's not healthy enough commentary has overnight vanished in much
of the meetia, and that is a huge problem. It
feels like we're too busy with insanity in politics these
days to follow all of the threads, all of the madness.
(12:41):
But I'll just say this, Kamala should be president right now.
And that's a crazy thing to say out loud, but
it's far more capable than Biden is the admit if
you can't be president in January, you can't be president now.
If it's a cognitive function issue, which is what they've
effectively admitted, you shouldn't be in charge right And if
(13:04):
it was, he's going to be too old. Well, they've
known he was going to be that age the whole time.
The difference is the lack of cognition, not the number.
And the cognition collapse that we saw is indicative of
somebody who shouldn't be in office anymore. Now.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Yeah, and we're just.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
All kind of sitting around going, Okay, I guess he
gets to continue on and do what he's doing. I
agree with you, By the way, I think that that
was another condition for him because the narrative will we
see it as the knockout punch of the election everything else.
Biden knows He's savvy enough, even in his current state,
to know if he finishes out his term come with
(13:42):
May he the loss will go on Kamala's record. If
Kamala wins, he's a hero. If he loses, it's on
her to a large a caress. And if he and
and when people look back on this, they will say, oh, well,
you know, it was just to you know, it was
just the troubles of old age.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, it was no you know, the woman they're already
trying to compare him course Washington. But that's what I mean.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Would the whole reality of the of the false. Uh,
the false narrative that he was fine. Yeah, that will
be forgotten, that will be memory hold. Then it'll just
be oh, he found you know, he was too old.
And then kam La took over. No big deal, she
became the nomina. Unless this story gets written by somebody
other than Seymour Hirsch, right, like if the New York
Times or the Washington Post wrote this, And I don't
(14:25):
know that they would because I think they would see
it as damaging so much of the Democrat brand. Seymour
Hirsh eighty seven years old. I was doing research on
him during the commercial break. Has broken a lot of
big stories.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
That's what I said. He's broken some big stuff.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
He's some people have said he's gone a little over
his skis on a few things, but he's broken some
big stuff. And I would just say this, Clay Biden
wasn't going everybody, Okay, I know you now it sounds
like I'm just like the crazy man.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
It was a he really wasn't. He wasn't going to
get him.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Something happened beyond just bad polls and threats from don't owners.
Someone was able to say and people. Last week there
was this meme going around that Biden had like severe COVID,
was in the hospital. Maybe wasn't going to make it.
We're thinking of all these crazy things. I don't think
that's what it was. I think that he just finally
they made him the offer that he couldn't refuse. And
Obama would be quite a person to present that offer.
(15:17):
You know when cities across America today, women and men
working at the preborn clinics come to work each day
with the same mission, save the lives of unborn babies
at the risk of losing their lives to abortion. The
work being done at each preborn clinic is so important
and it's powerful.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
It's not easy.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
There's a lot of emotion, a lot of conversation and contemplation.
These women need support, but so often the Preborn team
prevails and the choice for life is made. In their
eighteen years of existence, Preborn has helped us save the
lives of two hundred and eighty thousand babies. Most often,
that happens just after a pregnant mother meets her child
through an ultrasound. When a mother hears that heartbeat, sees
(15:57):
those little fingers and toes, and witnesses the movement she
feels throughout the day a decision for life over abortion
takes place. If you have the means, would you consider
a leadership gift. It's a five thousand dollars tax deductible
gift that would sponsor Preborn's entire network of clinics for
twenty four hours. Look, I know, five thousand dollars a
lot of money. I'm not asking everybody listening to you know,
(16:17):
if you could get five dollars, they'd be great. And
if you can't get five dollars, I understand. But there
are a handful of you listening right now across this
great nation for from a five thousand dollars tax exempt
gift to save hundreds of babies' lives. Two hundred is
what they believe it would be in just one day
with your five thousand dollars tax deductible donation. Think about that.
Is there a better way that you could donate five
grand than to save two hundred babies? To donate, dial
(16:41):
pound two five zero, say the keyword baby. By the way,
if you can donate five dollars, bless you and thank you,
and you are helping this mission too. Anyone can do
it right now. Dial pound two five zero, say the
keyword baby, or if you want to just do it online,
that's what I've done. Go to preborn dot com, slash Buck,

Speaker 3 (17:04):
Stories are Freedom Stories of America, inspirational stories that you
unite us all each day. Spend time with Clay and
find them.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
On the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
All right, welcome back in.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I want to talk to you about the effort that
is underway to place Kamala Harris on the spectrum of
law enforcement severity, as in, is she pro writers in
the streets and anarchy on your neighborhood or is she
tough on crime? You're gonna want to hear this because
(17:40):
I think this is very important. And the short answer
is she's part of why California has been ruined as
a state in recent years. I'll break that all down
for you here coming up in just a minute, as
Clay and Buck continues, But I've got to speak to
my fellow firearms owners for a minute.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Here.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Give me an esthmate, what do you think a good
new costs? What about a really good nine millimeter? I
mean I'm talking about a pistol that you can count
on at the range or for any reason. Well, I'm
telling you right now, an ar can go over one
thousand bucks, maybe two grand. It can get really expensive,
and what's it really worth? I mean, what do you need?
(18:19):
Bear Creek Arsenal, my friends, is where you need to
go to find the best rifles at the best prices.
You will be blown away when you see how good
the pricing is on Bear Creek Arsenal farms. They're fantastic.
For hundreds of dollars, not up in the thousands, you
can get a fantastic ar or pistol. I've got a
(18:39):
handful of ars. I mean, well, yes, true, but I've
got a handful of Bear Creek Arsenal stuff at home myself.
Go to the website. Go to Bearcreekarsenal dot com. Incredible
sales this month, so it's ending.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Go today.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Go check it out Bearcreek Arsenal dot com. Use my
name Buck for ten percent off.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Welcome back into Clay and Buck. Now let me tell
you something.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Well, actually I was going to dive into the Kamala
Harris thing, but first off, Clay, this is getting a
lot of attention over the weekend. If you and I
did this, I texted our team's screenshot from my phone
the same thing. I know exactly what you're want to say.
Clay did the same thing. So you can test this out. Obviously,
not while you're driving, safety first, but if you were
to Google on your phone assassination attempt on and as
(19:27):
you know, most of us have our Google set to
fill in some likely basically the most common searches that happen.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
As you do that.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Now, I think most of us would assume, given recent events,
there's a likelihood that if you put an assassination attempt on.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Trump's name would pop up.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
You know, it's in the news, it just happened. But
no assassination attempt on Google currently brings up Reagan Hitler,
John Paul the Second, Lennon Truman, Gerald Ford. It does
not bring up Donald Trump's name. Now, as you know,
(20:12):
usually search results in this all the complicated algorithm and
all the rest of it are supposed to favor what
is being recently searched and has been a major issue
in the news for obvious reasons. Right, you know, if
a plane just went down and two hundred people died,
(20:33):
and I googled plane crash. My expectation is that it
would be the plane crash that just happened, not one
from thirty years ago, Right, Clay. I know that they're
gonna tell us or actually it's Google. They probably won't
say anything that's too rich and powerful.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
They don't really care.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
But if they were forced to answer, they would say, oh,
this is just the algorithm.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
It's not like anything on purpose to me. They are
trying to memory hold the assassination attempt on Donald Trump
from this campaign, and then they will slowly but surely
wipe it from history, Soviet style, to the greatest degree
possible in the digital realm, which unfortunately has become the
(21:16):
primary repository for all official record. It's even worse than
what you said, Buck, because I'm testing it right now
and it still does it. If you type in assassination
attempt on t r Um, it fills in Truman.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Oh my god, I didn't know that, so.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
You even if you put in four of the five,
I didn't even know that there was. I don't think
the only reason I think that you see, like assassination
attempt on.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Truth wothing new. I didn't even know about that. One.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
But this is a big deal. And I understand a
lot of you are thankfully very well informed. But imagine
if you are a low information voter and you trust
Google to give you information, and maybe you're buying into
this left wing theory that's out there that Trump wasn't
actually shot. Maybe you're seeing that on some social platforms,
(22:13):
and so you want to go do research on whether Trump.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Was actually shot. Wow, this is in Truman.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Is this crazy that.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
You would That is crazy?
Speaker 1 (22:24):
But I will admit to it to a point of
historical historical ignorance on my part, which I am, this
is very interesting. In nineteen fifty Puerto Rican, I mean
they say independence activists on Wikipedia, terrorists Oscar Colazzo and
Grisello Grisellio Torrissella attempted to assassinate President Truman at the
(22:50):
Blair House during the renovation of the White House. They
were stopped before they could get in. One mortally wounded
a White House White House police officer, Leslie Koefeldt, who
killed him and return fire. Secret Service agents wounded one
of the assassins. Truman was upstairs and not harmed. Two
days before the assassination attempt, Puerto Rican nationalists tempted to
(23:12):
overthrow the government of Puerto Rico. Uprisings occurred in many towns,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So this was about wow.
And in nineteen seventy nine, President Jimmy Carter commuted the
sentence to time served of one of the assassins. I
didn't know that story at all, I'll be honest, because
maybe Google at least helped in that time. I mean,
(23:33):
usually when I think about sketchy stuff going on with
Puerto Rican terrorists, it's Hillary Clinton, who remember she was
all in favor of having Bill Clinton commute the sentences
of some Puerto Rican terrorists a fire members so she
could become a Senator in New York because she needed
the Puerto Rican vote. I got to check on that
because I was a kid when that happened. But I
think that was a real thing. So what's what's wild
(23:54):
here is again we talk a lot about fairness and elections.
We talk about making sure that only citizens are voting,
all of these things that are integral to our democracy.
What big tech is able to do is still under
discussed now. Thankfully, Elon Musk has bought x slash Twitter,
(24:16):
whatever you want to call it, and there is more
of a fair marketplace of ideas there and Buck, I'm
sure you see and I do enjoy there are community
notes that will be placed beneath stories that now appear
on Twitter, where people will say, actually, this is the truth,
this is the fact. Or for instance, recently, the media
(24:38):
was trying to say that Kamala Harris didn't raise money
to help bail out people who were rioting during BLM protests.
In the summer of twenty it was Bill Clinton commuted
the sentences of not to interrupt you just Bill Clinton
commuted the sentences of twelve Puerto Rican separatist terrorists in
nineteen ninety nine, and it was believed that this was
(25:01):
helpful for Hillary and New York, though I think Hillary
actually publicly said she disagreed with this because she didn't
want to seem like a quid pro quo.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
But yes, Bill released a much of.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
It because there's Puerto Rican voters and million was running
for Senate. Thought people realized there's a million Puerto Ricans
in New York City. It's well, the Puerto Rican Parade
is quite a fiesta. Well, and people thought that we
talked about this recently that the Hillary Rudy Donnie Brooke
was going to be one of the most expensive battle
in the Senate history, right because Rudy Giuliani was going
(25:31):
to be the match, and they tossed in Rick Lazio
and Hillary Clinton won that one comfortably. But what I
was saying on the on the big tech censorship front
is Twitter is helping and they'll, for instance, Kamala Harris
raising money for BLM, they'll when they try to pretend
that didn't happen, there will be links in this case
directly to her actual Twitter profile with still active ability
(25:54):
to donate. But the power of Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google
to give prominent placement and search related preference to Democrats
is one of the great untold stories of elections in general,
because there are stories out there, studies out there that
(26:18):
show that the way that big tech treats Democrat policies
compared to Republican policies, and Democrat and Republican candidates especially
worth millions of votes just based on how people starve.
Oh I think Democrats get five to ten percent of
the overall vote attributable to traditional news media and tech
(26:40):
social media as well I think that's absolutely the case,
and they will spread things that are one hundred percent untrue.
I think we've got the audio. Maybe we can play
this when we come back. But the suggestion that Trump
made to Christians when he was joking, he jokingly said, hey,
if you vote in this election, you won't have to
vote in any other election because we're going to fix everything,
(27:00):
or phrasing him. We'll play that audio for you. But
they took the left wing media did that audio. They
edited out the part where he's joking and saying because
we're gonna fix everything and you won't even need to
vote anymore, to oh, this is Trump telling everyone that
he's never going to leave office, which is the story
that they try to tell over and over and over again.
(27:22):
So we will play that audio for you guys when
we come back. And I think it's just so interesting
how they choose to share what he says. Can we
talk about cop Cop Cop Kamala when we come back
in the third hour, in the third hour, because I
think that's I think that's important because I've been worried
that Republicans are going to go in the wrong direction
on this one and say she's tough on crime. Don't
(27:44):
ever hit a democrat for being tough on crime. And
she wasn't tough on crime.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
She was horrible. But we'll get to that in the
third hour, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
In the meantime, I want to tell you I'm leaving
on Friday for Israel. I'm going to be doing the
show from Israel next week. You all know that it's
an absolute tender box over there. You probably have seen
that Hesbola killed. I believe the number right now is
twelve innocent young people, many of whom we're playing on
a soccer field, by sending a rocket into Israel. So
(28:15):
in addition to Hamas killing twelve hundred Jews, also Hesbola
is constantly attacking as well, and every now and then
one of these missiles, unfortunately lands, and it has devastating consequences.
And so I want to tell all of you that
the IFCJ is making a tremendous differ difference in Israel.
(28:36):
I'm going to see it for myself next week, but
what you have seen already gives you a sense of
how difficult it is. And they've been doing it for
four decades, more than forty years working on the ground
in Israel within hours of the attack last October seventh,
and every day since. The IFCJ has been feeding the
hungry and protecting the vulnerable. We need to help them,
(28:57):
and one solid way to do it is through human
sanitarian efforts provided by the IFCJ. You can support Israel
through the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Learn more
by visiting their website. SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's support IFCJ

Speaker 3 (29:17):
News and politics, but also a little comic relief. Clay
Travis at buck Sexton find them on the free iHeartRadio
app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. All right,
you were asking a good question, Buck, Kamala Harris and
how you handle her prosecutorial background. And I've seen some
haphazard attacks from a variety of perspectives.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
The way I think to.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Attack her is by focusing almost exclusively on defund the police,
on her raising money for BLM protesters to bail them out,
on her suggestion that they weren't doing anything wrong. Those
are incredible vulnerabilities. Well, I can I can take you
to a whole nother realm of this criticism take you
(30:08):
down another pathway. Kamala when she was Attorney General in
twenty fourteen Attorney General for the state of California, was
a huge champion of all the Californians are saying it
Proposition forty seven Prop forty seven, which over the weekend
I went into and read a bit in between my
reading of Kamala's official autobiography, biography really has for We're
(30:34):
at a resort here doing an event for advertisers for
the show. Buck brought his pool reading the Kamala biography
Kamala Harris. Oh, absolutely, my Kamala biography. I'm gonna make
new friends. It's going to be great.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
They'd be like, hey, man, I's going to destroy the country.
I'll be like, yes, right, I'm not gonna have kids
because of climate change anyway. Yes, it is.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
It is a truth that Kamala Harris was a big
proponent back to California in twenty fourteen of Prop forty seven,
and I was reading Prop forty s. Prop forty seven,
for those who don't know, basically decriminalizes all shoplifting. I
want to know why you can steal up to nine
hundred dollars under the law in California Proposition forty seven.
I want to know why a lot of people had
(31:18):
their sentences or their crimes reclassified after the fact, after
they went through judicial process. Basically it made it so
that criminals would be punished less for everything, and no
one cares about the victims and the rest of it.
I'd also know, Clay, it's not like anyone can tell
whether you know, I don't care what story you're operating.
Is someone stealing seven hundred and seventy two dollars worth
(31:41):
of stuff or someone stealing.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
One thousand dollars worth of stuff.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You end up just not calling the police, period, because
who wants to deal with the headache. You either enforced
laws against stealing or you don't. But my point here
is not only was Kamala a major proponent of this,
there was there was a miss. The whole thing was
a scam. And they do this with ballot initiatives, particularly
(32:04):
in these blue states.
Speaker 2 (32:05):
They've done it.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
To the pro life community with abortion. Is that you
don't know what you're really voting for. Yeah, Like Prop
forty seven is one hundred and thirty something pages. I
was reading it over the weekend, and it's a big document.
It's not just like something you could sit down and
read in five minutes. And so the title matters a lot.
The ballot title was criminal Sentences, misdemeanor penalties, and they
(32:29):
talked about it as a as a safety bill. They
talked about it as something that would improve overall safety,
when all it did was make everybody less accountable for
the crimes. Criminals is less accountable for the crimes they committed.
So yeah, I mean it's a total, a total mess.
(32:51):
Brought down drug charges. Basically it meant you won't get
arrested for drugs, for selling drugs, for stealing things, for
a whole range of crime. And this is what they
deal with now in California, and this has been she
is part of ruining her home state. She was at
the forefront of Proposition forty seven and people should know that.
And I believe it's on the ballot this fall in
(33:13):
California to repeal Proposition forty seven.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yes it is.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
Proposition is thirty six in fact, So they're trying to
repeal this because think about it, if you're listening to
us in California right now, there are lots of places
where you go shop that they basically have put everything
under lock and key. And this happened to you in
New York City, like where you would go your name,
my drugs, my drug store, the one that I would
(33:39):
go to to you know, get paper towels past, No,
you have to you have to buzz and the person
walks over. They got to open the plastic and the
whole thing is just so demeaning. It's de meaning for me,
it's you meaning for the staff. It's such a waste
of time. But they just steal, steal and steal more,
uh and and there's no consequences for it, no penalties
for it. So I just I think it's interesting because
(34:00):
it's a miss. It would be a mistake for Republicans
to attack Kamala for being tough on crime, and it's wrong.
So not only is it dumb strategy, it's untrue. Yes,
you know it's it's worse than just a blunder, it's
a lie. So I think that that's something that hopefully
that Trump campaign everybody else is going to be dialed
(34:21):
in on because the all the mayhem you see on
the streets in San Francisco, in La and you know
even La, well that's time I was in La Man
a lot of like the tense city stuff. Although you
know Gavin Newsom he swept in the Supreme Court said
you could do. Supreme Court has now cleared the way
for them to clear the streets. I think they didn't
want to do it before and they're doing it now.
(34:42):
So anyway, we we'll see. We'll see how how that
ends up checking out. I thought this was instinct too.
We have a caller, Kim in Virginia says Facebook is
blocking the image of Trump high story. I have a
friend book, I have a friend in our business. I
didn't ask to say this on air, so I never
say things. But I have a friend in our business
who texted me and she said she showed me that
(35:05):
her Instagram was blocked on this issue. Yeah, of Trump,
of the Trump fist on the stage raising his fist,
and Instagram Facebook obviously the same company owned. But it's
all meta. They say that it's an altered image. It's
not an altered image. It's a real image. It's a badass, timeless,
amazing image. And they're saying that you can't share it. Gee,
(35:28):
I wonder why, And just till everyan's clear, because I
think Clay's been getting some pushback on this, or I
have too. We're not saying you can't find assassination attempt
on Trump. We're saying what they fill in the blank
with when you begin to type it in is a
whole bunch of other things. Google autofill for those of
you who haven't really thought much about it. If you
are sitting in front of your phone right now and
(35:49):
you go to Google and you start to type something in,
sometimes it'll fill in something that you might have been
to before. Right But if you type in you can
try it yourself. I did it live on the air.
I tested it yesterday when the story started to go.
Unless they've changed it in the last five minutes. If
you type in assassination attempt on Trum, don't finish it.
(36:13):
Don't finish Trump. It will fill in Truman they are telling,
which is what we ended up talking about, the assassination
attempt on Harry Truman.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
That is what it will fill in.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So you have to perfectly put the query in in
order for it to work. It's not filling in what
you would think. Buck is a far more common search
term right now. If you're just saying, okay, well, that's
what people are searching for. There aren't a lot of
people searching for Harry Truman assassination stories, so they are
(36:44):
neglecting to auto fill something that I think they believe
is positive for Trump. It's not accidental. This is algorithmic manipulation.
Talk about the Supreme Court, by the way, what's going
on there when we come back
