Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome in our number two Tuesday edition Clay Travis buck
Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us
as we are rolling through the Tuesday edition of the program.
A couple of different things I was trying to read
the text message same time. Sometimes that's a little bit dangerous.
A couple of different things that are going on out

(00:20):
there that I think are consequential, that we probably buck.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
We got so much.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Winning going on that sometimes we don't even hit the
victory lap that we should. Yesterday, all of the talk
was in the morning, Oh my goodness, Trump is going
to enact tariffs on Canada and Mexico. The entire global
economy is going to collapse. He has no idea what
he's doing. Mexico commits ten thousand troops to the border.

(00:50):
Canada commits ten thousand troops to the border. Both put
billions of dollars more into the idea that they are
going to restrict in gress and uh into the United States,
and boom uh. This has turned into a non story already.
What I do think is significant is if you add

(01:12):
on Columbia and you add on with what happened when
they were refusing to take the refugees. And you add
on Panama who appears to have been the knee Venezuela
releasing six American hostages, which barely got talked about, but
was a significant accomplishment by Richard Grennell, the uh the

(01:32):
akrony individual down Grenell who went down there and made
a and made a deal to get them back. Venezuela
has agreed to take different illegals. I saw where Yeah,
I was El Salvador. You see El Salvador is not
not even there will guitars. Yeah, let me tell you,

(01:53):
I mean meeting Americans who can make crimes. Let me
tell you, I do not think you want to get
sent to Boukeal's supermacs present in Al Salvador. That could
really that is probably not a good place to have
to spend some time. And basically El Salvador has almost
no crime. Now, I mean, many of these Latin American
countries have turned into real success stories when you look

(02:14):
at basically just embracing capitalism and allowing the market to flourish.
So all of these wins are getting stacked up. RFK
Junior has cleared committee. He is going to become HHS Secretary.
Also Tulci Gabbard has received significant commitments from Republicans. She

(02:35):
is going to get confirmed as well. Every single cabinet
nominee that Trump put forward that reached the hearing is
going to be confirmed, as should be the case. The
only one that Trump announced that Withdrew Matt Gates. That
is otherwise, Trump and his cabinet one point zero in

(02:58):
this second administration is going to take office with no rejections.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Trump just keeps stacking wins.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Now a couple of things also Trump tomorrow, Buck and
the Real Daily Layer just reported it, so I can
say it. I know it to be true as well,
is going to sign an executive order that is going
end men competing in women's sports. There's going to be
a big press conference associated with that EO. Our friend

(03:31):
Riley Gains, who works alongside of me at OutKick, is
going to be at that press availability. Caroline Levitt is
going to join us tomorrow, as I said earlier White
House Press Secretary, to talk about that. I actually when
she comes on, I think Buck will be on the
way to New Orleans where I will be doing our
show Thursday and Friday from the super Bowl, which shouldn't

(03:52):
stink Chiefs and Eagles down there. That Trump has announced
that he will be attending as well. So President of
United State will be at the super Bowl on Sunday.
I suspect buck and I haven't seen the official release.
One reason he wants to do this is, as we
talked about in the first hour, one month ago, there
was a terror attack in New Orleans. Trump was not

(04:13):
the president at the time of that terror attack, but
I would expect that he will want to pay respects
to the fourteen individuals who lost his life there, lost
their life there, and also be able to speak out
against the awful terror attack that happened there as well.
As guy's a big sports fan. I think he wants

(04:35):
to go to the Super Bowl and one hundred million
plus people will be watching. It's gonna be on Fox.
Should be fun.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
You know, get a.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Little tired of all this, Like what does cloy think
about the Super Bowl? So I'm going to put you
on the hot seat for a second here. Who do
you really think Trump is rooting for Kansas City Chiefs.
He's a Kansas City guy. He likes he's for Kansas City.
He was a Patriots guy before. I think he knew

(05:02):
that Tom Brady was a voter and supporter. I mean,
a lot of this stuff is behind closed doors. Patrick
Mahomes and his wife voted for Donald Trump. I think
that Patrick Mahomes is a big Trump guy. Now, to
be fair, Travis Kelcey not so sure that he's a
big Trump guy. Taylor Swift certainly not a big Trump guy.
So look, I mean every team, I think the reality is,

(05:26):
has guys that vote Trump and some guys that didn't
vote Trump. I mean, just like most businesses in America do, right.
I mean, we're a fifty to fifty country to a
large extent, but much of the Chiefs ownership big Trump supporters.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
I would say, in general state of Missouri, pretty good
Trump supporting area. And I know, look there are a
lot of Eagle fans out there saying, wait a minute,
I'm a big Trump supporter.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
But I think Trump is Patrick mahomes guy, and I
think that he will be rooting for the Chiefs. I
do not think he will say it. In fact, I
think smart politician that he is. Philadelphia is kind of
a big battleground and even though his political career is over,
if you had to pick a team to root for Politically, Pennsylvania,

(06:13):
whoever votes for in twenty twenty eight is going to
probably decide the presidency again. So I think as a
smart he's not running. He's not running again though, right,
so he doesn't really Maybe he'll just come out. Maybe
he'll just come out and say it. I think the
fig the Eagles owner, is actually a big lib Jeffrey
Lourie and uh, and so Trump certainly knows that, and

(06:34):
so the ownership of the of the Chiefs is more
aligned with him politically. Patrick Mahomes is a Trump supporter.
His wife is I think a big Trump supporter, and
and so I think that that Trump will be rooting
for the Chiefs. I don't know that he'll say it publicly,
but that's how I would break it down, by the way,
I think the Chiefs are going to win several days out.

(06:55):
Usually people I don't know, you don't do, I don't
know how much attention you paid a sports media. You're
supposed to keep your prediction on the Super Bowl, like
super close to the chest because if you come out
and say it on Monday, you got a full week
to talk about the game. So then you're like, well,
what's the suspense, so you have to kind of talk
up both sides.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
Well.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
On the one hand, you know, I like, what's your boy, Sequan.
Saquon Barkley has been able to accomplish in the running game,
and so you talk about the Eagles ability to control
that side of the ball.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
And in the next day this is sports talk radio.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Next day you come back and you're like, but boy,
you know Patrick Holmes is pursuing Tom Bradman, and I
can give you the whole week of how the stories go.
And then on Friday, you're like, but my pick is
I'm telling you now, I think the Chiefs win.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I've been following Saquan's career for weeks and I will
just tell you never bet against Saquan.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
That's what I know.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Sequan has has still not or your boy Pickles unfortunately
did not make a NOI Pickles let me down.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
We don't talk about mister.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
Pickles got into a fight in the end zone after
kind of a I would say, dastardly into the season
for the good word for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Speaking of dastardly,
I would argue that, So that's Super Bowl. I'll be
down there Thursday, Friday, tomorrow we'll have Caroline Levitt on,

(08:14):
but I will probably miss that last hour. But another
executive order that many of you are going to say,
how lujah when you see come down. I can't believe
that we've gotten to the point where the President of
the United States need to say, hey, men pretending to
be women shouldn't be able to compete in women's sports.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
All right.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
This is one of the dumbest things that has been
allowed to air on CNN in some time. And I
say that because sometimes you can have opinions that I
disagree with, but you can at least make an argument.
That's how the First Amendment works, Like, hey, you have
this opinion, I have that opinion.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
We can argue back and forth.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
But when you are so factually inaccurate that it boggles
the mind that it would even be possible for you
to say it. And CNN, which claims they care about
the pursuit of truth and fact checking to such an extent,
says nothing at all. Here is Congress. This woman, Jasmine
Crocket where's she from?

Speaker 2 (09:02):
Buck Well?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
You know, you know the state, young black woman, Texas,
Oh Texas. You blew it on this one. Jasmine Crockett
young black woman. You trade Luca, you elect this woman?

Speaker 2 (09:13):
What do you do? In Texas?

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Here is Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett saying eighty percent of violent
crime is actually attributable to white supremacy.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
Listen, this is very simple.

Speaker 4 (09:27):
We right now have a white supremacist that is sitting
in the White House. He is backed up by other
white supremacists. And if you really want to know who
the criminals are in this country, you can google it.
You don't have to trust me. But the people that
commit eighty percent of the most violent times in this
country are white supremacists. Yet for whatever reason, they sit
and they serve at the pleasure of the president. They

(09:49):
are the ones that were there on January sixth tearing
our democracy down physically, and now we have them tearing
us down right here from within. Here is the problem,
of course, Congress.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Okay, so she calls the president a white supremacist. That's
an opinion. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Was CNN about to say the president denies being Yeah,
do we have to continued cut there?

Speaker 2 (10:12):
I don't even know. I haven't heard of such. Just
that's it.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
They would never have done that before he won. Well, also,
do we have the continuation there. Maybe Greg can look
into it. I don't know where I know I said
cut it off, but I think it was cutting off there.

Speaker 2 (10:24):
But here's what I would ask.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
She said, google it, which reminds me of when Don
Lemon was like everyone knows when women are in their prime.
Google it, Like google it is not actually an argument
when the Google data does not in any way support this, Buck,
I don't even know what data point she could be
attempting to claim that white supremacists commit eighty percent of

(10:49):
violent crime in America. It's one of the craziest arguments
I've ever seen on CNA. I think I think she
was conflating like, uh, you know.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
Hate, hate, crime, times and terrorism, and you know, the
left has all these ways of trying to, uh, you know,
change the numbers up so that it looks like the
real that.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Buck, I don't know how you could possibly get to
eighty percent under any crime metric attributable to white supremacy.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
But you have to remember, what if.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
Clay you were really, really dumb.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
Then then you can confuse numbers and statistics and everyone.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
To say it on CNN.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
And by the way, I understand when some people say
things that you don't know a lot about. Like I
came on the show recently and I confessed you were
with me too. I didn't know what the capital of
Missouri was. I thought it was Columbia, Missouri. I once
knew it in fifth grade. You didn't know it either. Sorry,
Jefferson City. I hope we're number one there. But if

(11:50):
you're sitting and you're doing a show and somebody comes
on and they say something like I did, like Columbia,
Missouri is the capital, and you don't get fact checked,
I can see how some one could get that wrong.
Anyone with a functional brain knows. And this is just
facts over fifty percent of all violent crime, focusing on

(12:11):
murder because we know it's the most violent of all crimes.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
Committed by black men.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
So unless black men are also white supremacists, which, to
be fair, the La Times did argue Larry Elder was
the blackface of white supremacy. So maybe Jasmine Crockett thinks
the black men committing crimes are white supremacists. The math
does it in any way add up to suggest that

(12:36):
eighty percent of crimes white supremacy. But this is such
a big lie. How does it not get fact checked
in real time on CNN. Well, I think that was
what was about to happen. Well, I think she was supremacy,
being a white supremacy. But is there well sued. I
don't know what else she said, but yes, no, it was.
It was one of the dumber things we have the conclusion,

(12:59):
by the way, let's play the here's here's the rest
of it right now.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Of course, Congressman President Trump, of course has denied any
allegations to wed supremisis.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
And that's why he what he is. I know, I
don't care what he's Oh, come on, that's, by the way,
how every that's how every argument with your elementary school
kid goes.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
Well, actually you need to eat other.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
I don't care what you say, you know, like this
is like just such a childlike response when you are
confronted with And by the way, Buck, I think you're right.
The reason why that occurs is because they're afraid to
get sued like they fact checked. But that's her opinion.
She has the right to say it. I disagree with it.
What she doesn't have the right to say on CNN,

(13:42):
in my opinion, is something that is objectively easily provable
falsehood that she then says, google it. Well, I'm gonna
google it. You're one billion percent wrong. I mean the
host on CNN should have corrected that. I think probably
didn't because she was afraid of being called racist. If
she pointed out that half of all murders are committed
by black men, then people are like, oh, you can't.

(14:04):
You can't share stats that make people racially uncomfortable. That's
one of the ways they police what we're allowed to say.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
It's quite a deep dive into the criminal justice analysis
of Congresswoman Crockett. I have to say, I don't know
if anybody else's gonna.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Come on Texas. She's pretty I'll give her that. You
got to do better as a congresswoman. She lies, and
she's racist, and she is really not an advocate in
any kind of intelligent way for the people of her
district in Texas.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Let's talk about legacy box here for a second. My friends,
if there was a camcorder in your family's history, then
there's likely a bunch of videotapes stored away someplace. Think
of all the memories that are contained on those tapes,
and if you know where they are, you should grab them.
Now and send them to Legacy Box so they can
be digitized and enjoyed for future generations. This is what
Legacy Box does. They take your old media camcorder, tapes, vhs, Betamax, LaserDisc,

(15:04):
whatever you've got, and then they transfer it into digital
files so that you can share it, post it, enjoy it,
and keep it safe for generations. This is just something
that every family should do. Over the last decade, more
than a million and a half families have sent their
videotapes and other old media to Legacy Box. Clay and
I have both done it, and those digital files from
Legacy Box are put up in their cloud where you

(15:26):
can authorize and access to them easily whenever you want.
Don't put this project off any longer. Just get the
deal locked in today. They'll send you the Legacy Box
and they'll take care of you at every stage of
this process, updating you on how it's going. Go to
Legacy box dot com slash buck and say fifty percent
off when you preserve your pass with the pass with

(15:47):
Legacy Box again. The website for a fifty percent off
savings is Legacy box dot com slash buck.

Buck Sexton. Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or
wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
Welcome back into Clay and Buck. It is looking good
for Trump's nominees as we speak to you now. Toulci
Gabbert gained the support of a critical Republican in this process,
Susan Collins, who we always point out not the best Republican,
but a pretty good Republican for Maine for the Senate.
I mean, as in, I don't know how much better

(16:28):
we're going to get in Maine given the makeup of
the state. But Susan Collins coming forward saying she will
back Tulsie for D and I play it.

Speaker 6 (16:38):
After extensive consideration, conversations with her in my office, attending
the hearing, questioning her there, and listening to her in
the closed session, I decided to vote that I will
vote for her. I believe she's committed to strengthening We've

(17:00):
got our national security.

Speaker 3 (17:03):
Clay looking good for Tulsi, who some were saying, you know,
everyone's saying, I think this one shaky. I think that
one shaky. Right now. I don't think any of the
big three nominees that are in the docket are shaky
at all. The closest for me would be RFK. But
I don't even I think he's going to get through
as well. I think they're all going to get through.
They're all going to get through.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
I think it's over Rfk's advance beyond the committee.

Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's done.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
And now the question is to the extent people care,
how many Democrats might cross over for Tulsi and or
RFK Junior. Considering just until six months ago, RFK Junior
was a lifelong Democrat and until about six months ago,
Tulsi Gabbard was a lifelong Democrat or independent. So it
will be interesting because, as you pointed out, sometimes there's

(17:47):
a level of anger over changing teams, more so than
there is if you've always been on the other team.
But will there be any Democrat moderates who might support them.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
We'll see.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
But Trump just keeps stacking wins, and we want to
stack a win with you at the super Bowl this weekend.

Pricepicks dot com code click Welcome back in, Clay, Travis
buck Sexton show Buck Big News. The NFL has ended

(19:02):
racism right just in time for the Super Bowl. It
is I mean, I know, like we need a breaking
new sound racism over the NFL is replacing end racism
from the end zones that has existed for the last

(19:23):
four years. In the wake of all of the BLM
insanity that arose in the fall of twenty twenty summer
of twenty twenty, Super Bowl twenty twenty one debuted end
racism in the end zones. It finally having been defeated

(19:44):
thanks to the NFL's end zone slogan, is reportedly being
replaced for the Super Bowl in New Orleans. Now, the
messages in the end zone. I know many of you
are like, aren't the messages in the end zone Chie
and Eagles. Yes, they have the team names in the
end zone and then on kind of underneath the goalpost

(20:08):
they have like these slogans, messages they now are going
to say for this Super Bowl, Buck, choose love. Very
nice time for Valentine's Day. Nothing sweeter than sitting with
your loved one and watching Super Bowl. And it takes all.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Of us so end racism over.

Speaker 1 (20:30):
This is what happens, Buck, when you finally get a
white cornerback starting in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Where everybody's like, I mean, there must be no racism.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
You got a white guy playing corner Choose love, and
it takes all of us end racism rest in peace
gone after four years now, I'm having fun with this,
but I do think it's symptomatic of what we have
been discussing, which is every thing just changed on November fifth, Guys,

(21:04):
all of the bs just went up in smoke. You
and I know this, buck, because for years we've been
meeting with a lot of CEOs and people who are
very successful in business, and they would say to us, what,
we basically.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Agree with everything you guys say, yeah, of course.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
But they would say, but in our companies, you know,
it's kind of hard for us to be able to
say publicly the kind of things that you're saying.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
They have.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
First of all, I give you on a tremendous credit
because he was out on the front lines leading the
charge in many corporations over this ridiculousness.

Speaker 7 (21:36):
Right.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
But once Trump won the popular vote, a lot of
CEOs in America and a lot of very powerful people
in public relations and other fields finally said, okay, we
can pop our heads up and look around and finally
acknowledge how crazy this is. Mark Zuckerberg is sadly kind

(21:58):
of a perfect representation of this. The guy basically goes
whichever way the wind is blowing. And you can say, politically,
maybe that's not a bad move, because all his real
goal is is to advance and grow his business. And
so if Democrats are in office, he's like, Mandi's great.
And as soon as Republicans win, he's like, Man, censorship sucks.

(22:19):
We got to judge people based on the meritocracy. I
do think that I hope that he's growing a little
bit more of a spine. But there are a lot
of zuckerbirds out there in your business. There are a
lot of these guys who just try to stay out
of the line of fire, don't really do much, don't
really say much. They just follow whatever the prevailing wind is. Hey,

(22:42):
we got to hire new people. Yeah, yeah, it's time
to hire man. We got to really cut back, Yeah, yeah,
it's time to cut back. The guy who always says
whatever the popular wisdom is inside of your business, that
guy is suddenly like, oh, oh, now's the time to
move in the other direction. And so the Florida Panthers

(23:06):
down where you are, Buck, congratulations, Panthers won the Stanley Cup.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
They went to visit Trump yesterday in the White House.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
He brought him into the Oval office, got the picture
with him at the resolute dot desk. Buck, I didn't
see one iota of criticism of an NHL team visiting
Trump in the White House. I'll tell you when Trump
won in sixteen, every single team that won, it was
a huge store. Are they going to go to the
White House? Are they going to Are they going to
acknowledge Trump as president? Maybe that's still going to linger

(23:35):
somewhat in the NBA, maybe the WNBA.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Everywhere else, it's over.

Speaker 3 (23:40):
I mean, I know a Florida resident who's relatively new
to Florida who when he first saw the headline about
the Panthers visiting the White House was like, what college
team is that? And I gave him a very hard
time for that because it wasn't me. I love the
Florida Panthers all about it. So, yes, things have definitely
definitely changed Clay on the corporate side of things, and

(24:02):
now all of a sudden people can be more open
about what well, actually, I just think it's very hard
to separate. You touched on this with Mark Zuckerberg. It's
very hard to separate who is just going because the
wind is so clearly blowing in this direction and who
really has had a change of heart, especially if the
change didn't happen till post election. I think that's definitely

(24:24):
going to be the case with a lot of these companies,
all these sports operations and things that are going on.
So that's a real or. I mean, how much does
it matter. I don't know, but if we're trying to
gauge how authentic and lasting the cultural change really will
be here, you know, it's one thing if you're like, well,
I guess we got to just sort of go with
this now. It's another thing if you say, you know,

(24:46):
what Trump won, the left is crazy. It's time to
go back to some kind of American normal. And that's
what we would all like, right, especially in the sports realm,
but across the board, corporate, cultural, everything.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
No doubt. And by the way, this is why whatever
Trump does.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
And look, I tweeted yesterday for a baseball analogy, Trump's
got like twenty home runs in April. For those of
you who are baseball fans, he's come out of the gate.
Who aren't baseball fans, he's come out of the gate
at an incredible pace. I don't know that he can
keep it up. But his term ends in November of
twenty eight. I know somebody was torn in until January
of twenty nine, but by twenty twenty six, the page

(25:30):
is going to turn from Trump, and as great as
his term may well be, we got to have sustained
success because Buck, you and I have talked about this,
a lot of these exect orders. If President Kamala Harris,
God forbid, or JB. Pritzker or whoever that person is,
Gretchen Whitmer, They're gonna immediately come into the Oval Office

(25:52):
and revoke a lot of what Trump has done. And
so you have to have sustained victories. We need to
win in twenty eight. We need to win in thirty two.
This is not a you don't go from hey, I'm
five hundred pounds to getting back in shape by having
one good year.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
You've got to stry.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
Our government is fat, flabby and not serving the American people.
One term of any president can't solve it for the
long term. We need to stick together, stack together some wins.
But I am super optimistic about this.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Well.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
This is why these changes, in these shocks to the
system in the Swamp and in DC they're going on.
It is so important because we're always fighting a losing
battle as Conservatives, as Republicans, as MAGA, all of it.
If when we win, there is an apparatus that stands
athwart US that is non responsive to elections and actually

(26:49):
institutes a lot of policy. Yeah, and so this is
now the beginning of the reshaping, and it is, to
your point, the beginning of it, but this is the
reshaping of it. And I think in a lot of ways,
this is what we saw on Trump's first term, where
the FBI was weaponized and the various agencies were effectively

(27:09):
dug in and refusing to comply wherever they could with Trump,
especially in the first year or two. You know, there
were lessons learned there, and there are lessons that not
only apply for Donald Trump as a president, but I
think we'll continue to apply going forward for everybody who
is a Republican who's trying to change things and do
things differently. And that is you have to It's a

(27:31):
little bit like the playing field and the refs, Right,
So we would show up to the game as Republicans,
and the refs have been bought off, and you know,
one side of the field has got like divots and
holes and all this stuff in it, and we're like, well,
hold on a second, this isn't the way it's supposed
to be. Now we're fixing that so that there's a
more level playing field for the actual implementation of Republican policy.

(27:53):
It's and that's why it's just so refreshing, because Clay,
this stuff goes beyond the four years of Trump's term.
You can reshape the federal bureaucracy. If you can cut
the spending, it changes the whole mindset, It changes our
whole perception of governance in America.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
It also, I think that's important too, not only for Trump.
Somebody out there is the fifteen year old Elon Musk.
Somebody out there is going to be like him in
the years ahead, aspires to achieve the remarkable things that
he has done and will do that for his generation
of Americans. If it becomes cool to give back to

(28:33):
your government and make sure that the government's not wasting money,
think about these brilliant Yeah, I mean, I know they're
getting ripped. People are like, oh, they've got like nineteen
and twenty twenty year old's going through line by line
the federal government expenses. Like, I know, they're ripping them
on the left, aren't those guys? Heroes like to be

(28:53):
giving of your time and not getting paid a ton
of money just for your country to try to be
more and to more fairly allocate all of our tax
dollars like these are the best of us. Like that's
an incredible thing to be giving right to have that gift.
Who should Who represents more the American ethos at its

(29:15):
core and should be more supported by the average American
tax paying You know, guy or gal, the people who
are putting cots in government offices to stay there and
do the absolute maximum that they possibly can to eliminate waste,
fraud and abuse. Or the people who are crying and

(29:38):
throwing tantrums because they're you know, transgender, dei drag queen
story hour budget for Sub Saharan Africa and East Asia
and whatever is no longer in existence.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Yeah, do you see, Like, who's the good guy here
to the American people? I'm pretty sure this is clear.

Speaker 3 (29:58):
But it's funny the media, Oh, they're apoplectic over this
and they just keep digging bigger holes for themselves.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
One bit of news too that I meant to mention.
Several of you asked this question. Remember Joe Biden turned
down the Super Bowl interview in the past two years,
which is unheard of because you get the opportunity to
talk to tens of millions of Americans. Trump is doing
the super Bowl interview with Brett Behar Fox News. The

(30:27):
super Bowl is airing on Fox, But just FYI, a
few of you have asked Trump is going. Not surprisingly,
he's going to the game, but he's also going to
take the opportunity to address the largest possible audience he
can and return to doing the traditional Super Bowl interview.
But to me, this was a sign that they knew
Biden wasn't up to the job because the traditional super

(30:51):
Bowl interview, Hey, look, this is not the most difficult
interview that a president's going to sit for the fact
that they didn't take that opportunity to do it with
Biden for the final two years of his term was
a sign that they just didn't think he was capable
of communicating in a way that would strike most Americans
as reflecting that he could do the job. So I

(31:11):
think they were hiding him. Trump not surprisingly right back
to doing that interview, which I think, whether you're a
Democrat or Republican, is a smart political move. Why wouldn't
you want to talk to tens of millions of football
fans in a relatively non threatening manner on a day
when most people just want to kick back and enjoy
some sports.

Speaker 3 (31:29):
Since we're in the sports zone, here's an easy one.
If your life savings depended on the outcome of a
football game and you had to pick for your team
to win, Joe Biden or President Trump as a coach.
I think I think every I think even everyone who
voted for Biden would go with President Trump to coach

(31:49):
their team if their life savings dependent on the outcome.
I don't believe a single I don't believe a single
person would be like, you know what, I need Joe
Biden to run my football team.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
No way.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Do you think Joe Biden could stand on the sideline
for three I mean, I'm not even kidding. I don't
think Joe Biden could walk. You know, you walk several
miles when you're a coach on the sideline during the
course of a three hour football game, to say nothing
of walking on and off the field and all of
the aspects going in and out of the locker room.
I don't think Joe Biden, to say nothing of actually coaching.

(32:20):
I don't think Joe Biden could have stood on the
sideline and walked to and from the locker room just
to be like ceremonially on the sideline. I don't think
he's capable of doing it.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
Wow. You know, if you're an independent contractor making your
living as an uber, a lyft driver, a plumber or electrician,
a truck driver, or any of one hundred professions earning
income on a ten ninety nine basis, there's a COVID

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Welcome back in Clay, Travis but Sexton Show. Appreciate all
of you hanging out with us. I'm going to go
downstairs after the show is over and I am going
to be signing. You can go to Crocketcoffee dot com.
Type in book when you subscribe and you'll get an
autograph copy of my book. I can't wait to get
down to New Orleans tomorrow either. Whether it looks like

(34:10):
it's gonna be perfect. One of my favorite cities in
the country, and I know it's all set up to
be pretty spectacular. One place I'm gonna check out. I
don't know if Buck's been there. Buckleby back here in
a sec is Cafe Demond, which I mean is just
a fabulous place to start off a morning in the

(34:31):
French Quarter. It's been a while since I was down
in New Orleans, probably six or seven years. But it
is really difficult to beat that as a way to
get your day absolutely started off. So maybe I will
see some of you on I guess it'll be Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
or Sunday down in New Orleans. Jerry in Austin, Texas.

(34:55):
You got an explanation for that idiot, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett
at stat she's attempting to strangle out of the violent
crime stratosphere.

Speaker 7 (35:06):
Explain it, Yeah, sure enough, high plane buck, big headlines,
big enough for a congressman to read. From Reuters, February
twenty third, twenty twenty three. White supremacists behind over eighty
percent of extremist related US murders in twenty twenty two.
I googled the CDC count and twenty four eight hundred

(35:26):
and forty nine people were murdered in twenty twenty two. Now,
this article talks about Anti Defamation League labeling t five
murders in twenty twenty two as extremists related, with eighteen
of those committed and whole learned part for ideological motives.
In particular, they highlighted two mass shootings one in Buffalo,

(35:48):
New York, ten black people were shot, and then in
Colorado Springs five people were killed.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
So this is important.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
So to your point, sorry to cut you off, there
were twenty five thousand, roughly people murdered in that year.
Reuters chose to pick twenty five of those murders and
attribute them to white supremacy. Then Jasmine Crockett says, eighty
percent of deaths are attributable to white supremacy, so that
is where her Google reference is coming from. Buck she

(36:18):
has pulled twenty five, according thanks for the call, by
the way, that was fantastic, twenty five murders out of
roughly twenty five thousand, and said, this is what we
have to be concerned about in the United States.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
This is basically what I is, basically what I said
she was doing. But yes, now we know exactly what
the trail was to this line of thinking. The government
is getting fed into the wood chipper by Elon the
Department of Education.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
That's up next. We'll talk about it.
