Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome back in Now, number three, final hour of the week.
Buck out on the baby moon. He will be back
on Monday. They are expecting a new baby. Should be
a fun twenty twenty five. We'll be back together, getting
you ready for the official arrival of the electoral votes
and the four year anniversary of jan six what Joe
Biden called the darkest day in America since the Civil War.
(00:25):
Remember he made that argument. I guess Pearl Harbor, he's
kind of like a dark day maybe, and certainly nine
to eleven dark days, but no darkest day in America
since the Civil War. January sixth, we'll have the four
year anniversary and Donald Trump will be triumphant on that
day and we'll be discussing that and more. Bring in now,
(00:47):
Tommy larn she doesn't show it. OutKick OutKick had a
fabulous twenty twenty four, partly because of Tommy Show, which
does fantastically well. You can find Tommy on many Fox
News shows as well as doing her daily show at OutKick.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Tommy, what's up? How are you? Happy New Year?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Happy New Year? And I think you and I are
going to be together on Fox News in about an hour,
so I'm glad I get a correct play today.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yes, I didn't know that, so are we on at
the same time? I haven't even checked my emails to
know the update. You're going to be on Martha's show.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
As well, Yes I am.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
We're going to be on a panel together, my friend.
So I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
You can fill me in.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
What are we talking about to tease everybody so that
they're aware that they'll be able to see us on TV.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, I'm glad that I could be breaking the news
for you. We are going to be talking about a
couple of our tweets in fact, one, oh, that's good warning.
The Yeah, the little gen z twarps out there that
are protesting in the streets on behalf of Hamas, You're
warning them about what a global end to thought it
really looks like. And so you and I are going
to be discussing that, and also my theory that you know,
(01:49):
if you happen to not be a US citizen and
you are carrying an ISIS or Hamaf's flag, perhaps maybe
you shouldn't be in this country. So you and I
are going to be discussing that with Martha in a
little bit. Unless we're disrupted by speak your ballot news,
which may very well happen.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Yeah, so let's talk about the speaker, and first of all,
that'll be fun, and so we encourage you guys to
watch us on Fox News here in about an hour.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
All right, so speaker ballad news.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I feel always about these aspects a bit like I
do the debt, you know, the shutdown of government and
everything else. Eventually it's going to end, and most of
the time there isn't going to be much difference than
if it had never occurred in the first place. That's
my take on as we get ready for speaker vote
round two. Do you disagree or what is out there
(02:36):
that is worthy of not having made Mike Johnson speaker
on the first ballot?
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Well, I just kind of find it annoying because listen,
I think that Mike Johnson people are a little ticked
off because of that omnibus giant spending bill, and I
understand it, and I think that a message needed to
be sent to him that the American people don't want
out of controlled spending and also kind of sick of
his blank checked Ukraine. So I think that a message
to him needs to be sent. But if we don't
(03:03):
have any alternatives. All of this is just performative and
it's just sucking all the air out of the room
for the Republican Party that should be triumphant right now.
So it feels like a lot of theater. It feels
like a circus. It feels like we've been here before.
I'm sure he will be our next speaker. It feels
like some of the folks that want to protest against
it really just want camera and TV time and they
(03:24):
want to make headlines, and it just feels like a
waste of our time. To your point, did.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
You see Kamala didn't know the pledge of allegiance.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I didn't see that, but.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I should have.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Texted to you during the break, But she said, I
pledge allegiance and then went to America. She forgot about
the flag, so she got the first three words right.
But is that not a perfect metaphor for Kamala Harris's
entire existence? That off the teleprompter, even when she knew
she was going to be doing it. And I get it,
like you probably had no play allegiance to the flag
(04:01):
that often if you're not a kid, right, I mean,
it's relatively rare for most people to do it. But
if you knew you were going to be doing it
on television in front of a huge room, wouldn't you
make the trouble to actually know what the pledge is?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah? You would think, you would think, But Kamala has
been historically unprepared for absolutely everything, which is why she
lost so dismally. And you know, she really doesn't have
that much that she needs to do as vice president,
so you'd think that she might just be able to
get that one little thing right. But this is just
the exactly why the American people are ready to move on.
And I think Kamala's political career is over. Those that
(04:36):
are trying to resurrect it or as delusional as she is,
she's done. The Democrats want her to be done. That's
why they ran her as a sacrificial lamb next to
Joe Biden in the first place. And they had to
run her on the ticket because Joe Biden could literally
not stand up anymore. And you know, they got what
they deserved and Kamala got what she deserved, and I
think now it's over for her.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Okay, So let's go into eventually.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I think you agree with me on the second ballad,
Mike Johnson is going to be the House speaker.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
What do you hope they do first?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
What should Trump's twenty twenty five agenda b hitting the
ground running in about seventeen days from now, right after
he's sworn in. If he asked you, and he may
well have asked you, Tommy, what should we do next?
What should be the first thing that Trump does?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
In your mind?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Mass deportations? That is number one. And I know people say, oh,
the economy, the tax cuts, yes, but we're speaking about
the economy, and we're speaking about the American people's money
and what we're wasting it on. We're wasting on a
mass illegal immigration invasion. Yes, we need to get the
criminal aliens out that are raping and torturing Americans. That's
first priority. But it really frustrates me Clay when I
(05:42):
hear even some Republicans say, oh, well, you know, the
ones that are here that haven't raped or killed anybody,
You know, they can probably stay a little bit longer,
even though they came into the country illegally. They're not
necessarily our priority. I disagree with that wholeheartedly. You're still
stucking off the tax Payaradim You are still bankrupting your communities,
in your schools and your cities, and your states and
(06:02):
our country. So I think mass deportations has to be
the first priority. Start with the criminals. But I don't
think anybody who came here illegally should be safe. And
that's my opinion. I'm a hardliner on that, but I
will never change that opinion.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Your husband is a former Major League Baseball player. You
enjoy sports.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yesterday we had the Sugar Bowl in the wake of
the New Orleans terror attack. ESPN did not cover the
national anthem, the chanting of USA, Notre Dame running out
with an American flag. All of those were incredibly iconic moments.
Also the moment of silence in honor of all of
(06:43):
those who lost their lives on Bourbon Street. Why do
you think so many people are so intent on refusing
to unite America even in the wake and we didn't
even mention but all State CEO had a hand handed
ridiculous state that didn't condemn terrorism. Why are so many
people in positions of power so bad at actually just
(07:06):
doing what normal people want.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Them to do.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
It's just so simple, right, I think we should all
be able to come together and condemn radical Islam and
a terrorist attack that killed a dozen plus people in
New Orleans on New Year's Eve, Like you think that
that would be pretty easy to do. And also showing
people coming together, that seems also like the least controversial thing.
You know, it'd be one thing if they were chanting,
let's go Brandon, I also think you should show that.
(07:32):
But it just makes no sense to me, And I
don't know who ESPN is. Beholden to you. It's a
pretty good thing that they have all of those contracts
or whatever they have to keep them afloat, because if
they were operating just off of their talent base, I
don't think that they would be around much longer. And
I think people are quite frankly sick of it. I
don't see the justification. I think ESPN said something like
they were coming out of a commercial break. That right
(07:53):
makes sense, but that's quite the excuse.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
And they control the event, I mean, they control the
clock TV. You know how bs sometimes you don't right,
Like you just mentioned, we may get bumped on the
Fox News show because they may be in the middle
of having to decide, Hey, who's the speaker going to be?
It may not be determined yet. By the time we're
gonna go on live news, you can sometimes get bumped.
They control kickoff time, their cameras are set up to
(08:17):
control the event.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
It's all complete. Bs.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
All right, another story that's out there, and I think
it's actually super fascinating. I'm curious on your take so.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Instagram.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
It seems to me, and you know way more about
Instagram than I do, but there's a lot of kids
out on college break right now, and there's a lot
of moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas that see
their kids on Instagram all the time. It seems to me,
And maybe this is just my Instagram feed, Tommy, that
like ninety percent of Instagram's entire business model is just
pretty girls posting photos of themselves looking very pretty. Am
(08:52):
I missing something larger? And then this is gonna lead
into a second point? Or is that a massive percentage
of Instagram reason basically for existence?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Well, Clay, I hate to drop this on you, but
the algorithm tracks your tracks the things that you're interested in.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Because so are you suggesting that I like pretty girl?
This is going to be a scandalous thing. Are you
suggesting that my liking of pretty girls makes me see
more pretty girls on Instagram A million percent.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's actually the truth. So if you look at my
for you page on Instagram, it's cooking videos, it's really hated, yes,
and it's dogs. It's rescue dogs. I mean, it's primarily
rescue dogs on my for you page. I have very
few pretty girls that show up on my for you page.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
I guess, I guess I've just totally outed myself. I've
never seen a rescue dog on Instagram. I've seen I
see sports and pretty girls. So I legit thought all
that Instagram had was pretty girls, all right, So as
a part of that, and OutKick is active there, you
should go follow Tommy. She's got like twenty million followers
on Instagram, whatever the number is. So Angel Reese is
(10:02):
a really famous basketball player at this point, primarily because
she's like the anti Caitlin Clark. For people out there
who are aware of this, and I think almost all
of you are, because their rivalry has become a big thing.
So I want you to explain to me what I'm missing,
because I'm a guy and I don't really understand this,
and there are many things about women, certainly that I
do not understand. Lots of women on Instagram posts themselves,
(10:25):
oftentimes in very scandalous clothing and look scandalous is probably
the wrong word, but I'm an old guy revealing whatever
the right word would be, right, And then it seems
to me many of them also get upset with the
attention that they get from men. So Angel Reese in
particular has said I'm sick of the media trying to
(10:46):
over sexualize me. And then on New Year's Eve, coming
across my feed is Angel Reese in both video and
photo wearing virtually nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
I don't even know.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
H here's another thing out No, Tommy, I don't even
understand the physics of how some of the outfits that
women wear work like. I don't understand how they stay on.
I don't understand how they don't reveal. This goes for
all women, by the way, including my own wife. I
have no idea how this works, all right? Is it
not hypocritical to post yourself in skimpy clothing? Maybe that's
(11:20):
the right word, and then complain that men are judging
you and paying attention to you based on you posting
yourself in skimpy clothing, which is what Angel Reese has done.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
What am I missing here?
Speaker 3 (11:34):
You're not missing anything. And what I think it really
is is she's looking to be a victim and she
couldn't quite figure out how she was a victim, so
she was reaching for something and then be being overly
sexualized by the media was the first thing she could
think of, you know, of course, after the race thing.
But it doesn't make sense to me. I think she's
a young girl who's posting herself. I've also seen her
in rap videos. I mean, she clearly likes the attention.
(11:56):
She likes to wear next to nothing. And you know what,
I'm somebody that I don't care like if you want
to go and you want to show you by.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'm the same way. I'm not judging anybody who decides
to wear whatever they want to wear. But this is
my take. If you're a girl and you're wearing something
that shows a lot of skin, I don't understand how
you can judge men for noticing.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, And I don't understand that either. And again I
don't think that it really bothers her. I think she
likes the attention. She enjoys the attention. That's why she
does it.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
But she also says.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Ridiculous things like that because she enjoys the attention. And
I think anytime Caitlin Clark gets attention, Angel rees has
to be in the corner like look at me, look
at me, and it's going to be For whatever reason,
she wore that and she posted that so that people
would talk about her, because she doesn't want people talking
about Kitlyn Clark. And Kitlin Clark's probably one of the
only female stars that you're not going to see in
a skimpy dress, and I think that that's another reason
(12:48):
why the two are so different. I don't think you'd
ever see that on Kaitlyn Clark. But Angel Reeve she
wants to be a cultural icon. She wants to be Beyonce,
and she wants us to talk about her and not
Caitlin Clark's.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
All right, another question for you.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I don't know if you've seen all these videos, and
I have seen these two on Instagram in particular, but
also on TikTok. There are lots of videos where women
have decided they're going to go into the gym. Have
you seen these and like skimpy outfits and they're gonna
set up cameras and try to catch guys looking at
them in their skimpy outfits. Have you seen this like
(13:19):
a viral thing where women are like, I can't believe
what is going on here? Again, if you go into
a gym wearing almost nothing and you start working out,
people can see me. I'm not in a great physique,
but it's impossible if you're a man in a gym
and a woman is wearing nothing for you not to
look at her. What's going on here? Like like these
(13:40):
thirst trap things that go viral. Some of the times
I'm looking like, what do these girls expect?
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah? Well again, I think anybody who brings a camera
to a gym and records themselves doing anything unless they're
actual trainer, is annoying. And that's exactly why I work
out in my garage, because I do not want to
be around women that come to the gym and pull
make up in skiny outfits and record themselves, or men
that spend most of their time taking near selfies or
looking at themselves. I think that jim culture. I mean,
(14:08):
I guess it's better than sit at home and do
nothing culture, but I think, what's so annoying? And I
also think to expand on that point, anybody that goes
on Instagram or TikTok and they post a whiny video,
you know, complaining about anything in their life, but then
they feel the need to record it for validation. It
goes against all of your victimhood and it's so annoying
and I think it needs to end, but it never
(14:29):
will because we reward this with revenue share dollars.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You know what, Tommy, I'm just hoping somebody sexualizes me
one day, just once. I would like to be sexualized.
This never happened in my entire media career. I'm offering
myself up. I want to be sexualized. Maybe it'll happen
in an hour on television when people see me and
they say, my god, Klay Travis is showing way too
much skin today, Tommy, thank you for the time.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Keep up the good work.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Check her out it out kick, check her out at
Tommy Layer and she does fantastic stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And thanks for taking the time with us today.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
I'll see in a little bit across the waves pretty.
Speaker 1 (15:02):

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Laugh it up in the Clay and Buck podcast on the.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back
in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton show. I really did think
that all Instagram had was pretty girls, some sports, really funny.
I didn't know they had dogs on there.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Tommy larran great hit.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
We're going to be joined by Congressman Chip Roy, who
was on the house floor has been one of the
uncertain votes for Mike Johnson as speaker in round one.
He did vote for Mike Johnson. There is a little
bit of a break between the first and the second round.
He says he is going to come on with us
(16:37):
here when we come out of the next break from
the house and let us know what exactly to expect
as the second vote gets underway. Also, he is a
monster Texas Longhorn fan, so he may want to celebrate
Texas advancing to the Final four of college football with
a win over Arizona State in spite of what I
(16:59):
think is frankly a targeting call that they got Arlay with.
But we will talk with Congressman Chip Roy from the
floor of the house here when we come out of
the next break and find out what the absolute latest
is with Mike Johnson. But I want to tell you
as we are getting ready to go to break, I
was just talking about all the people out there who
have maken different New Year's resolutions, and one of the
(17:21):
best things you can do in a New Year's resolution.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Is not try to make too many, so.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You can't say, Hey, I'm going to sleep way more
and I'm going to lose forty pounds and I'm going
to learn a new language. And the more New Year's
resolutions you make, the less likely you are to be
able to follow through on any of them. Texting with
Chip Roy on the House floor, breaking news Speaker Johnson
(17:48):
has won the speakership on the first ballot. Ralph Norman
and Keith selth two of the three votes against him
have switched their votes after a long break in the
preceding and so, after all, Mike Johnson has been an
elected speaker in the first ballot, and Chip Roy may
(18:11):
join us.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Before the end of the show or not.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
He was thinking there was going to be a second vote,
but during the commercial break two of those three votes
against Mike Johnson. No word on what might have occurred
to get them to switch their vote, but congresspeople Ralph
Norman and Keith self that means only Thomas vat Massey
voted no, and we officially have a Speaker of the House,
(18:37):
and it occurred on the absolute first ballot, So that
is very good result if you are wanting Donald Trump's
agenda to be implemented as rapidly as possible. It does
not mean, however, that Mike Johnson is out of the
woods here because there's a very small majority for the
(19:01):
Republicans in the House. So it's only going to take
a couple of people to be able to force him out.
And we will see exactly how this goes. But Congressman
Mike Johnson retains the speaker gavel and will, alongside of
Senator John Thune, be trying to implement the Trump agenda
(19:23):
on Capitol Hill. So we'll see if Chaproy is going
to call in as he determines exactly what took place
on the on the floor of the on the floor
of the House. But again breaking news, we now have
a Speaker of the House. He is Mike Johnson, same
Speaker of the House that we had going into the election. Republicans, eventually,
(19:44):
when all of the seats are filled and all of
the special elections take place, we expect it to be
a two twenty to two fifteen majority. But Republicans officially
have control now of both sides of Congress. That is
worth celebrating. Now, a couple of cuts that I wanted
to play for you guys out there. The most recent
(20:07):
one I just sent into the crew and I believe
greg it is ready to go and it is now.
Am I correct? Cut twenty two? This was just on
the White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre just did
a briefing. Mercifully, there are not going to be very
many more briefings from Karine Jean Pierre, but she was asked,
(20:31):
we may have a little bit of difficulty in hearing it,
but yesterday we played Joe Biden and may Orcus telling
us that white supremacy was the biggest terror threat that
we faced in the country. Well, in the wake of
an ISIS terror attack on Bourbon Street that took the
life of I believe the number right now is fourteen individuals.
(20:53):
Karine Jean Pierre was asked a question that probably is
at the top of a lot of people's minds, and
that is does the President does Joe Biden still consider
white supremacy to be the biggest terror threat we face
in the nation? Listen, thanks guys, fuck, thank you everybody
the terris threats and lasts no answer, KJP walking right
(21:20):
out as she has asked whether the President still considers
white supremacy to be the biggest tear threat in the nation,
and I gotta say, if you were honest, he would
say no. But you know they're never honest, and in fact,
it ties in with what I think is a couple
of the outrageous perspectives that continue to be shared on
(21:44):
the small viewership MSNBC network. This was and I want
to make sure I get this right. It might have
been CNN two by the way, uh, considering that both
of those have a very minimal overall viewership. But in
the in the discussion surrounding the New Orleans terror attack,
they wanted to make sure that all of you knew
(22:07):
that still the biggest threat out there is for there
to be. Let me pull this up, that white supremacy
is still the biggest threat that we face. And that
was from New York Times columnist Charles Blow. Really big problem,
young white men, listen to cut seven.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
There are real tragedies. There will there will always be crime,
you know. Unfortunately, what we try to do is to
keep the crime as low as possible. All different kinds
of people will will commit crimes. The problem here is that,
you know, you jump on one sort of crime, one
crime committed by one one name that sounds exotic, one
(22:52):
brown face, rather than looking at all of the domestic
terror that we face, including what the advice, as you know,
is a really big problem, which is young white men
in America. We need to look at all of our
domestrism and say this all is a problem.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Okay, young white men are the problem. Here's the reality.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Can we speak truth in twenty twenty five? We always
speak truth on this show. If you really want to
address violent crime, Charles Blow New York Times columnists, then
you have to look at who commits violent crime. The
overwhelming amount of violent crime committed in this country is
committed by black men. It's as if you aren't allowed
(23:36):
to say that. But if you truly care about violent
crime and you want to reduce it, young black men,
young men overall. Right, We talked about this on the
program quite a lot. Young men between the ages of
sixteen and forty of all racial groups, white, Black, Asian,
and Hispanic, they commit the overwhelming majority of crime in
(23:56):
this country. That's the reality. There aren't that many young women.
There certainly aren't that many grandmas out there running around
shooting up places.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Okay. Overwhelmingly, white, Black.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Asian, and Hispanic young men between the ages of sixteen
and forty, generally speaking, commit the vast majority of violent
crime in this country.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
We all know it.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
If you then dive into young men between the ages
of sixteen and forty, which I bet the data would reflect,
commit ninety percent of all violent crime in this country.
I would bet young men sixteen to forty probably commit
about ninety percent of violent crime, and if you extended
it to sixteen to fifty, it would be like ninety
five percent.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
There aren't that many senior citizen violent criminals. They exist,
they aren't that common, Okay. If you then dive into
the young violent men category, what you find, based on
the data is that black men typically are committing over
half of all murders in the United States. Young black
(25:03):
men between sixteen and forty represent what do we say,
maybe two percent of the overall population in the United States,
three percent, four percent at most. They commit over half
of all of the crime violent murders that occur in
the United States every year.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
You will never hear.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
That stat talked about on CNN, you will never hear
that stat talked about on MSNBC. You don't hear it
talked about very often anywhere in the media because it
makes people uncomfortable to acknowledge that violent crime is in
any way connected to race. And do you know, overwhelmingly
(25:42):
who are the victims of young black violent crime? Overwhelmingly
young black people. Now black people know this. It's why
they didn't support defunding the police, because black, White, Asian
Hispanic people, particularly parents, understand that the danger in their
(26:02):
communities is not primarily from the police. Doesn't mean that
police are perfect. It's from young violent perpetrators in their
neighborhoods or coming into their neighborhoods. So we really wanted
to have an honest conversation about how to drastically reduce
violent crime in this nation. You would have to have
(26:24):
that conversation based on who's committing violent crime, because you
could send a ton of resources out to go police
senior citizen homes and you wouldn't dilute the amount of
crime going on. I'm sure in nursing homes there's occasionally
violent acts, but having police in nursing homes would not
(26:48):
address in a substantial way the violent crime in this country.
You have to put police where the violence is, and
you have to empower them them to arrest the violent perpetrators,
and then you have to put the violent perpetrators behind bars.
This is not complicated. It's just we lacked the will
(27:10):
to take the slings and arrows that come from doing
what must be done to protect innocent people in this country.
And there are a lot of people in media like
that Ignoramus Charles Blow that I just played for you,
who aren't willing to actually address where crime is occurring.
(27:31):
But I think, and this goes back to my point
that made earlier this one of the great stories of
twenty twenty four to me, is we just had the
least racially polarized election since nineteen sixty four. A lot
of people out there, and a lot of you are listening,
variety of different racial backgrounds, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
You're just fed up. You're fed up with the bs.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
You may not agree with me, you may not agree
with Trump, you may not agree with Buck, you may
not agree with Speaker of the House Johnson or Thune
or whatever else, but a lot of people are just
fed up and they're saying, yeah, we got to fix this.
And I'm super optimistic that if Trump can deliver on
(28:12):
many of his policies, violent crime is going to come down.
And their data reflects. Do you know who's going to
benefit the most from violent crime coming down?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Young Black men? Because in young black families.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
But and a lot of moms and dads are afraid
to take their kids grandma's and grandpas, to take their
kids out to a playground in the neighborhood, or to
go walk to McDonald's and go get a French fry
and a hamburger with their kid because they're afraid of
what might happen to them. And Democrat policies have put
(28:49):
them more in danger. And one of the great things
I think Trump has done is what.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
Do you have to lose? That's a hell of an argument.
Look around your community. Do you feel safe?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Do you feel like Democrats in the inner city have
done a good job of making your family safer protecting
your community. If the answer is no, well, what the
hell do you have to lose by trying something else?
It's actually a really compelling argument. If what you've done
has failed.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
And it has maybe you should try something new.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
And that's why I think we just had the least
racially polarized election in our nation's history since sixty four,
sixty years. And Kamala Harris doesn't know the pledge of allegiance.
But do you know who actually voted for Kamala Harris?
More white people, a lot. And nobody's gonna talk about this.
(29:47):
The racial politics are getting broken in many different ways.
The only group that Kamala Harris increased her vote with
in twenty twenty four white people. A lot of y'all
are starting to re realize how much in common you
have with people who may not look like you. And
(30:07):
that's one of the most compelling and exciting things about
the twenty twenty four election to me, turns out a
lot of us out there that are rational and reasonable, White, Black, Asian,
Hispanic may not look the same, but our brains go
in the right direction. And that direction was Trump and
(30:27):
it's safety on the streets, and it's a thriving economy,
and it's better jobs, and it's in America that works
for everybody, whether you're a CEO or a janitor. That's
why I'm excited about twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
We come back.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
We'll close out the week, set the table for Monday,
and continue to break down the absolute latest on the

twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Do you know what it was? Gold?
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Gold absolutely skyrocketed in value because the value of currencies
has continued to decline. And if you're out there starting
twenty twenty five and you're thinking about the investment decisions
you need to make for you and your family, gold
could be and maybe should be a part, figure out

and one and a half. Then Joe Burrow more than
that's receiving yards. Joe Burrow more than two hundred and
(33:27):
eighty five and a half, and Jamar Chase more than

Burrow's top receiving target. If I am correct in this forecast,
then we will hit on a ten to one payout.

Buck out on the baby moon. He will be back

a fun twenty twenty five. We'll be back together, getting
you ready for the official arrival of the electoral votes
and the four year anniversary of jan six what Joe
Biden called the darkest day in America since the Civil War.
(00:25):
Remember he made that argument. I guess Pearl Harbor, he's
kind of like a dark day maybe, and certainly nine
to eleven dark days, but no darkest day in America
since the Civil War. January sixth, we'll have the four
year anniversary and Donald Trump will be triumphant on that
day and we'll be discussing that and more. Bring in now,
(00:47):
Tommy larn she doesn't show it. OutKick OutKick had a
fabulous twenty twenty four, partly because of Tommy Show, which
does fantastically well. You can find Tommy on many Fox
News shows as well as doing her daily show at OutKick.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Tommy, what's up? How are you? Happy New Year?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Happy New Year? And I think you and I are
going to be together on Fox News in about an hour,
so I'm glad I get a correct play today.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yes, I didn't know that, so are we on at
the same time? I haven't even checked my emails to
know the update. You're going to be on Martha's show.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
As well, Yes I am.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
We're going to be on a panel together, my friend.
So I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
You can fill me in.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
What are we talking about to tease everybody so that
they're aware that they'll be able to see us on TV.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, I'm glad that I could be breaking the news
for you. We are going to be talking about a
couple of our tweets in fact, one, oh, that's good warning.
The Yeah, the little gen z twarps out there that
are protesting in the streets on behalf of Hamas, You're
warning them about what a global end to thought it
really looks like. And so you and I are going
to be discussing that, and also my theory that you know,
(01:49):
if you happen to not be a US citizen and
you are carrying an ISIS or Hamaf's flag, perhaps maybe
you shouldn't be in this country. So you and I
are going to be discussing that with Martha in a
little bit. Unless we're disrupted by speak your ballot news,
which may very well happen.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Yeah, so let's talk about the speaker, and first of all,
that'll be fun, and so we encourage you guys to
watch us on Fox News here in about an hour.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
All right, so speaker ballad news.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I feel always about these aspects a bit like I
do the debt, you know, the shutdown of government and
everything else. Eventually it's going to end, and most of
the time there isn't going to be much difference than
if it had never occurred in the first place. That's
my take on as we get ready for speaker vote
round two. Do you disagree or what is out there
(02:36):
that is worthy of not having made Mike Johnson speaker
on the first ballot?
Speaker 3 (02:42):
Well, I just kind of find it annoying because listen,
I think that Mike Johnson people are a little ticked
off because of that omnibus giant spending bill, and I
understand it, and I think that a message needed to
be sent to him that the American people don't want
out of controlled spending and also kind of sick of
his blank checked Ukraine. So I think that a message
to him needs to be sent. But if we don't
(03:03):
have any alternatives. All of this is just performative and
it's just sucking all the air out of the room
for the Republican Party that should be triumphant right now.
So it feels like a lot of theater. It feels
like a circus. It feels like we've been here before.
I'm sure he will be our next speaker. It feels
like some of the folks that want to protest against
it really just want camera and TV time and they
(03:24):
want to make headlines, and it just feels like a
waste of our time. To your point, did.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
You see Kamala didn't know the pledge of allegiance.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I didn't see that, but.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
I should have.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Texted to you during the break, But she said, I
pledge allegiance and then went to America. She forgot about
the flag, so she got the first three words right.
But is that not a perfect metaphor for Kamala Harris's
entire existence? That off the teleprompter, even when she knew
she was going to be doing it. And I get it,
like you probably had no play allegiance to the flag
(04:01):
that often if you're not a kid, right, I mean,
it's relatively rare for most people to do it. But
if you knew you were going to be doing it
on television in front of a huge room, wouldn't you
make the trouble to actually know what the pledge is?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah? You would think, you would think, But Kamala has
been historically unprepared for absolutely everything, which is why she
lost so dismally. And you know, she really doesn't have
that much that she needs to do as vice president,
so you'd think that she might just be able to
get that one little thing right. But this is just
the exactly why the American people are ready to move on.
And I think Kamala's political career is over. Those that
(04:36):
are trying to resurrect it or as delusional as she is,
she's done. The Democrats want her to be done. That's
why they ran her as a sacrificial lamb next to
Joe Biden in the first place. And they had to
run her on the ticket because Joe Biden could literally
not stand up anymore. And you know, they got what
they deserved and Kamala got what she deserved, and I
think now it's over for her.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Okay, So let's go into eventually.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I think you agree with me on the second ballad,
Mike Johnson is going to be the House speaker.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
What do you hope they do first?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
What should Trump's twenty twenty five agenda b hitting the
ground running in about seventeen days from now, right after
he's sworn in. If he asked you, and he may
well have asked you, Tommy, what should we do next?
What should be the first thing that Trump does?
Speaker 2 (05:20):
In your mind?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Mass deportations? That is number one. And I know people say, oh,
the economy, the tax cuts, yes, but we're speaking about
the economy, and we're speaking about the American people's money
and what we're wasting it on. We're wasting on a
mass illegal immigration invasion. Yes, we need to get the
criminal aliens out that are raping and torturing Americans. That's
first priority. But it really frustrates me Clay when I
(05:42):
hear even some Republicans say, oh, well, you know, the
ones that are here that haven't raped or killed anybody,
You know, they can probably stay a little bit longer,
even though they came into the country illegally. They're not
necessarily our priority. I disagree with that wholeheartedly. You're still
stucking off the tax Payaradim You are still bankrupting your communities,
in your schools and your cities, and your states and
(06:02):
our country. So I think mass deportations has to be
the first priority. Start with the criminals. But I don't
think anybody who came here illegally should be safe. And
that's my opinion. I'm a hardliner on that, but I
will never change that opinion.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Your husband is a former Major League Baseball player. You
enjoy sports.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yesterday we had the Sugar Bowl in the wake of
the New Orleans terror attack. ESPN did not cover the
national anthem, the chanting of USA, Notre Dame running out
with an American flag. All of those were incredibly iconic moments.
Also the moment of silence in honor of all of
(06:43):
those who lost their lives on Bourbon Street. Why do
you think so many people are so intent on refusing
to unite America even in the wake and we didn't
even mention but all State CEO had a hand handed
ridiculous state that didn't condemn terrorism. Why are so many
people in positions of power so bad at actually just
(07:06):
doing what normal people want.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Them to do.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
It's just so simple, right, I think we should all
be able to come together and condemn radical Islam and
a terrorist attack that killed a dozen plus people in
New Orleans on New Year's Eve, Like you think that
that would be pretty easy to do. And also showing
people coming together, that seems also like the least controversial thing.
You know, it'd be one thing if they were chanting,
let's go Brandon, I also think you should show that.
(07:32):
But it just makes no sense to me, And I
don't know who ESPN is. Beholden to you. It's a
pretty good thing that they have all of those contracts
or whatever they have to keep them afloat, because if
they were operating just off of their talent base, I
don't think that they would be around much longer. And
I think people are quite frankly sick of it. I
don't see the justification. I think ESPN said something like
they were coming out of a commercial break. That right
(07:53):
makes sense, but that's quite the excuse.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
And they control the event, I mean, they control the
clock TV. You know how bs sometimes you don't right,
Like you just mentioned, we may get bumped on the
Fox News show because they may be in the middle
of having to decide, Hey, who's the speaker going to be?
It may not be determined yet. By the time we're
gonna go on live news, you can sometimes get bumped.
They control kickoff time, their cameras are set up to
(08:17):
control the event.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
It's all complete. Bs.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
All right, another story that's out there, and I think
it's actually super fascinating. I'm curious on your take so.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Instagram.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
It seems to me, and you know way more about
Instagram than I do, but there's a lot of kids
out on college break right now, and there's a lot
of moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas that see
their kids on Instagram all the time. It seems to me,
And maybe this is just my Instagram feed, Tommy, that
like ninety percent of Instagram's entire business model is just
pretty girls posting photos of themselves looking very pretty. Am
(08:52):
I missing something larger? And then this is gonna lead
into a second point? Or is that a massive percentage
of Instagram reason basically for existence?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Well, Clay, I hate to drop this on you, but
the algorithm tracks your tracks the things that you're interested in.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Because so are you suggesting that I like pretty girl?
This is going to be a scandalous thing. Are you
suggesting that my liking of pretty girls makes me see
more pretty girls on Instagram A million percent.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
That's actually the truth. So if you look at my
for you page on Instagram, it's cooking videos, it's really hated, yes,
and it's dogs. It's rescue dogs. I mean, it's primarily
rescue dogs on my for you page. I have very
few pretty girls that show up on my for you page.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
I guess, I guess I've just totally outed myself. I've
never seen a rescue dog on Instagram. I've seen I
see sports and pretty girls. So I legit thought all
that Instagram had was pretty girls, all right, So as
a part of that, and OutKick is active there, you
should go follow Tommy. She's got like twenty million followers
on Instagram, whatever the number is. So Angel Reese is
(10:02):
a really famous basketball player at this point, primarily because
she's like the anti Caitlin Clark. For people out there
who are aware of this, and I think almost all
of you are, because their rivalry has become a big thing.
So I want you to explain to me what I'm missing,
because I'm a guy and I don't really understand this,
and there are many things about women, certainly that I
do not understand. Lots of women on Instagram posts themselves,
(10:25):
oftentimes in very scandalous clothing and look scandalous is probably
the wrong word, but I'm an old guy revealing whatever
the right word would be, right, And then it seems
to me many of them also get upset with the
attention that they get from men. So Angel Reese in
particular has said I'm sick of the media trying to
(10:46):
over sexualize me. And then on New Year's Eve, coming
across my feed is Angel Reese in both video and
photo wearing virtually nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
I don't even know.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
H here's another thing out No, Tommy, I don't even
understand the physics of how some of the outfits that
women wear work like. I don't understand how they stay on.
I don't understand how they don't reveal. This goes for
all women, by the way, including my own wife. I
have no idea how this works, all right? Is it
not hypocritical to post yourself in skimpy clothing? Maybe that's
(11:20):
the right word, and then complain that men are judging
you and paying attention to you based on you posting
yourself in skimpy clothing, which is what Angel Reese has done.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
What am I missing here?
Speaker 3 (11:34):
You're not missing anything. And what I think it really
is is she's looking to be a victim and she
couldn't quite figure out how she was a victim, so
she was reaching for something and then be being overly
sexualized by the media was the first thing she could
think of, you know, of course, after the race thing.
But it doesn't make sense to me. I think she's
a young girl who's posting herself. I've also seen her
in rap videos. I mean, she clearly likes the attention.
(11:56):
She likes to wear next to nothing. And you know what,
I'm somebody that I don't care like if you want
to go and you want to show you by.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'm the same way. I'm not judging anybody who decides
to wear whatever they want to wear. But this is
my take. If you're a girl and you're wearing something
that shows a lot of skin, I don't understand how
you can judge men for noticing.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Yeah, And I don't understand that either. And again I
don't think that it really bothers her. I think she
likes the attention. She enjoys the attention. That's why she
does it.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
But she also says.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Ridiculous things like that because she enjoys the attention. And
I think anytime Caitlin Clark gets attention, Angel rees has
to be in the corner like look at me, look
at me, and it's going to be For whatever reason,
she wore that and she posted that so that people
would talk about her, because she doesn't want people talking
about Kitlyn Clark. And Kitlin Clark's probably one of the
only female stars that you're not going to see in
a skimpy dress, and I think that that's another reason
(12:48):
why the two are so different. I don't think you'd
ever see that on Kaitlyn Clark. But Angel Reeve she
wants to be a cultural icon. She wants to be Beyonce,
and she wants us to talk about her and not
Caitlin Clark's.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
All right, another question for you.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I don't know if you've seen all these videos, and
I have seen these two on Instagram in particular, but
also on TikTok. There are lots of videos where women
have decided they're going to go into the gym. Have
you seen these and like skimpy outfits and they're gonna
set up cameras and try to catch guys looking at
them in their skimpy outfits. Have you seen this like
(13:19):
a viral thing where women are like, I can't believe
what is going on here? Again, if you go into
a gym wearing almost nothing and you start working out,
people can see me. I'm not in a great physique,
but it's impossible if you're a man in a gym
and a woman is wearing nothing for you not to
look at her. What's going on here? Like like these
(13:40):
thirst trap things that go viral. Some of the times
I'm looking like, what do these girls expect?
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah? Well again, I think anybody who brings a camera
to a gym and records themselves doing anything unless they're
actual trainer, is annoying. And that's exactly why I work
out in my garage, because I do not want to
be around women that come to the gym and pull
make up in skiny outfits and record themselves, or men
that spend most of their time taking near selfies or
looking at themselves. I think that jim culture. I mean,
(14:08):
I guess it's better than sit at home and do
nothing culture, but I think, what's so annoying? And I
also think to expand on that point, anybody that goes
on Instagram or TikTok and they post a whiny video,
you know, complaining about anything in their life, but then
they feel the need to record it for validation. It
goes against all of your victimhood and it's so annoying
and I think it needs to end, but it never
(14:29):
will because we reward this with revenue share dollars.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
You know what, Tommy, I'm just hoping somebody sexualizes me
one day, just once. I would like to be sexualized.
This never happened in my entire media career. I'm offering
myself up. I want to be sexualized. Maybe it'll happen
in an hour on television when people see me and
they say, my god, Klay Travis is showing way too
much skin today, Tommy, thank you for the time.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Keep up the good work.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Check her out it out kick, check her out at
Tommy Layer and she does fantastic stuff.

iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome back
in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton show. I really did think
that all Instagram had was pretty girls, some sports, really funny.
I didn't know they had dogs on there.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Tommy larran great hit.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
We're going to be joined by Congressman Chip Roy, who
was on the house floor has been one of the
uncertain votes for Mike Johnson as speaker in round one.
He did vote for Mike Johnson. There is a little
bit of a break between the first and the second round.
He says he is going to come on with us
(16:37):
here when we come out of the next break from
the house and let us know what exactly to expect
as the second vote gets underway. Also, he is a
monster Texas Longhorn fan, so he may want to celebrate
Texas advancing to the Final four of college football with
a win over Arizona State in spite of what I
(16:59):
think is frankly a targeting call that they got Arlay with.
But we will talk with Congressman Chip Roy from the
floor of the house here when we come out of
the next break and find out what the absolute latest
is with Mike Johnson. But I want to tell you
as we are getting ready to go to break, I
was just talking about all the people out there who
have maken different New Year's resolutions, and one of the
(17:21):
best things you can do in a New Year's resolution.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Is not try to make too many, so.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You can't say, Hey, I'm going to sleep way more
and I'm going to lose forty pounds and I'm going
to learn a new language. And the more New Year's
resolutions you make, the less likely you are to be
able to follow through on any of them. Texting with
Chip Roy on the House floor, breaking news Speaker Johnson
(17:48):
has won the speakership on the first ballot. Ralph Norman
and Keith selth two of the three votes against him
have switched their votes after a long break in the
preceding and so, after all, Mike Johnson has been an
elected speaker in the first ballot, and Chip Roy may
(18:11):
join us.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Before the end of the show or not.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
He was thinking there was going to be a second vote,
but during the commercial break two of those three votes
against Mike Johnson. No word on what might have occurred
to get them to switch their vote, but congresspeople Ralph
Norman and Keith self that means only Thomas vat Massey
voted no, and we officially have a Speaker of the House,
(18:37):
and it occurred on the absolute first ballot, So that
is very good result if you are wanting Donald Trump's
agenda to be implemented as rapidly as possible. It does
not mean, however, that Mike Johnson is out of the
woods here because there's a very small majority for the
(19:01):
Republicans in the House. So it's only going to take
a couple of people to be able to force him out.
And we will see exactly how this goes. But Congressman
Mike Johnson retains the speaker gavel and will, alongside of
Senator John Thune, be trying to implement the Trump agenda
(19:23):
on Capitol Hill. So we'll see if Chaproy is going
to call in as he determines exactly what took place
on the on the floor of the on the floor
of the House. But again breaking news, we now have
a Speaker of the House. He is Mike Johnson, same
Speaker of the House that we had going into the election. Republicans, eventually,
(19:44):
when all of the seats are filled and all of
the special elections take place, we expect it to be
a two twenty to two fifteen majority. But Republicans officially
have control now of both sides of Congress. That is
worth celebrating. Now, a couple of cuts that I wanted
to play for you guys out there. The most recent
(20:07):
one I just sent into the crew and I believe
greg it is ready to go and it is now.
Am I correct? Cut twenty two? This was just on
the White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre just did
a briefing. Mercifully, there are not going to be very
many more briefings from Karine Jean Pierre, but she was asked,
(20:31):
we may have a little bit of difficulty in hearing it,
but yesterday we played Joe Biden and may Orcus telling
us that white supremacy was the biggest terror threat that
we faced in the country. Well, in the wake of
an ISIS terror attack on Bourbon Street that took the
life of I believe the number right now is fourteen individuals.
(20:53):
Karine Jean Pierre was asked a question that probably is
at the top of a lot of people's minds, and
that is does the President does Joe Biden still consider
white supremacy to be the biggest terror threat we face
in the nation? Listen, thanks guys, fuck, thank you everybody
the terris threats and lasts no answer, KJP walking right
(21:20):
out as she has asked whether the President still considers
white supremacy to be the biggest tear threat in the nation,
and I gotta say, if you were honest, he would
say no. But you know they're never honest, and in fact,
it ties in with what I think is a couple
of the outrageous perspectives that continue to be shared on
(21:44):
the small viewership MSNBC network. This was and I want
to make sure I get this right. It might have
been CNN two by the way, uh, considering that both
of those have a very minimal overall viewership. But in
the in the discussion surrounding the New Orleans terror attack,
they wanted to make sure that all of you knew
(22:07):
that still the biggest threat out there is for there
to be. Let me pull this up, that white supremacy
is still the biggest threat that we face. And that
was from New York Times columnist Charles Blow. Really big problem,
young white men, listen to cut seven.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
There are real tragedies. There will there will always be crime,
you know. Unfortunately, what we try to do is to
keep the crime as low as possible. All different kinds
of people will will commit crimes. The problem here is that,
you know, you jump on one sort of crime, one
crime committed by one one name that sounds exotic, one
(22:52):
brown face, rather than looking at all of the domestic
terror that we face, including what the advice, as you know,
is a really big problem, which is young white men
in America. We need to look at all of our
domestrism and say this all is a problem.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Okay, young white men are the problem. Here's the reality.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Can we speak truth in twenty twenty five? We always
speak truth on this show. If you really want to
address violent crime, Charles Blow New York Times columnists, then
you have to look at who commits violent crime. The
overwhelming amount of violent crime committed in this country is
committed by black men. It's as if you aren't allowed
(23:36):
to say that. But if you truly care about violent
crime and you want to reduce it, young black men,
young men overall. Right, We talked about this on the
program quite a lot. Young men between the ages of
sixteen and forty of all racial groups, white, Black, Asian,
and Hispanic, they commit the overwhelming majority of crime in
(23:56):
this country. That's the reality. There aren't that many young women.
There certainly aren't that many grandmas out there running around
shooting up places.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Okay. Overwhelmingly, white, Black.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Asian, and Hispanic young men between the ages of sixteen
and forty, generally speaking, commit the vast majority of violent
crime in this country.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
We all know it.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
If you then dive into young men between the ages
of sixteen and forty, which I bet the data would reflect,
commit ninety percent of all violent crime in this country.
I would bet young men sixteen to forty probably commit
about ninety percent of violent crime, and if you extended
it to sixteen to fifty, it would be like ninety
five percent.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
There aren't that many senior citizen violent criminals. They exist,
they aren't that common, Okay. If you then dive into
the young violent men category, what you find, based on
the data is that black men typically are committing over
half of all murders in the United States. Young black
(25:03):
men between sixteen and forty represent what do we say,
maybe two percent of the overall population in the United States,
three percent, four percent at most. They commit over half
of all of the crime violent murders that occur in
the United States every year.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
You will never hear.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
That stat talked about on CNN, you will never hear
that stat talked about on MSNBC. You don't hear it
talked about very often anywhere in the media because it
makes people uncomfortable to acknowledge that violent crime is in
any way connected to race. And do you know, overwhelmingly
(25:42):
who are the victims of young black violent crime? Overwhelmingly
young black people. Now black people know this. It's why
they didn't support defunding the police, because black, White, Asian
Hispanic people, particularly parents, understand that the danger in their
(26:02):
communities is not primarily from the police. Doesn't mean that
police are perfect. It's from young violent perpetrators in their
neighborhoods or coming into their neighborhoods. So we really wanted
to have an honest conversation about how to drastically reduce
violent crime in this nation. You would have to have
(26:24):
that conversation based on who's committing violent crime, because you
could send a ton of resources out to go police
senior citizen homes and you wouldn't dilute the amount of
crime going on. I'm sure in nursing homes there's occasionally
violent acts, but having police in nursing homes would not
(26:48):
address in a substantial way the violent crime in this country.
You have to put police where the violence is, and
you have to empower them them to arrest the violent perpetrators,
and then you have to put the violent perpetrators behind bars.
This is not complicated. It's just we lacked the will
(27:10):
to take the slings and arrows that come from doing
what must be done to protect innocent people in this country.
And there are a lot of people in media like
that Ignoramus Charles Blow that I just played for you,
who aren't willing to actually address where crime is occurring.
(27:31):
But I think, and this goes back to my point
that made earlier this one of the great stories of
twenty twenty four to me, is we just had the
least racially polarized election since nineteen sixty four. A lot
of people out there, and a lot of you are listening,
variety of different racial backgrounds, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
You're just fed up. You're fed up with the bs.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
You may not agree with me, you may not agree
with Trump, you may not agree with Buck, you may
not agree with Speaker of the House Johnson or Thune
or whatever else, but a lot of people are just
fed up and they're saying, yeah, we got to fix this.
And I'm super optimistic that if Trump can deliver on
(28:12):
many of his policies, violent crime is going to come down.
And their data reflects. Do you know who's going to
benefit the most from violent crime coming down?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Young Black men? Because in young black families.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
But and a lot of moms and dads are afraid
to take their kids grandma's and grandpas, to take their
kids out to a playground in the neighborhood, or to
go walk to McDonald's and go get a French fry
and a hamburger with their kid because they're afraid of
what might happen to them. And Democrat policies have put
(28:49):
them more in danger. And one of the great things
I think Trump has done is what.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
Do you have to lose? That's a hell of an argument.
Look around your community. Do you feel safe?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Do you feel like Democrats in the inner city have
done a good job of making your family safer protecting
your community. If the answer is no, well, what the
hell do you have to lose by trying something else?
It's actually a really compelling argument. If what you've done
has failed.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
And it has maybe you should try something new.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
And that's why I think we just had the least
racially polarized election in our nation's history since sixty four,
sixty years. And Kamala Harris doesn't know the pledge of allegiance.
But do you know who actually voted for Kamala Harris?
More white people, a lot. And nobody's gonna talk about this.
(29:47):
The racial politics are getting broken in many different ways.
The only group that Kamala Harris increased her vote with
in twenty twenty four white people. A lot of y'all
are starting to re realize how much in common you
have with people who may not look like you. And
(30:07):
that's one of the most compelling and exciting things about
the twenty twenty four election to me, turns out a
lot of us out there that are rational and reasonable, White, Black, Asian,
Hispanic may not look the same, but our brains go
in the right direction. And that direction was Trump and
(30:27):
it's safety on the streets, and it's a thriving economy,
and it's better jobs, and it's in America that works
for everybody, whether you're a CEO or a janitor. That's
why I'm excited about twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
We come back.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
We'll close out the week, set the table for Monday,

eighty five and a half, and Jamar Chase more than

Burrow's top receiving target. If I am correct in this forecast,
