Speaker 1 (00:01):
Bold, reverence, and occasionally random.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
The Sunday Hang with Clay and podcast it starts now.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Michael and Illinois has a suggestion for Clay. What's going on?
Michael going once, going twice? Okay. His suggestion was, I
can share this with you, Clay, you should try diet soda.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
I look, I understand some of you out there, including
President Trump, who loves diet coke. Every time we've been
around him, like, he pops diet coke like I mean,
other people drink water, right, Diet soda is awful. I
like the taste of sugar. I have tried the Mountain
Dew Diet Mountain Dew. My dad drinks it. I would

(00:47):
rather drink water. I think that diet soda is made
for people without functional taste buds.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
It's awful. Wow, So yeah, I'm going there.

Speaker 4 (00:58):
Diet Doctor Pepper, diet coke, Diet PEPSI, Diet Mountain Dew.
All of you diet soda drinkers are just fooling yourselves.
The reason why soda tastes good to a large extent
is sugar. Once you pull the sugar out, I have
zero interest in it.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
It's awful.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
I would rather go water. Or the best drink at
all Crocket Coffee.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Crocket Coffee. True story, True story. Matt writes in we
got a lot on the soda. I'm just telling you
right now, Play and Buck, keep up the great work,
play great decision on cutting out soda. I was in a
banking summit last week and appalled by the number of
intelligent individuals who were drinking soda before nine am. They
were drinking multiple sodas a day, and the vast majority

(01:43):
of them had soda in front of them during non
lunch hours. Sad all in caps exclamation points. Buck, you
don't trust people who drink soda. That's for you, but
throwing down you.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
I was in Madison, Wisconsin on Saturday. I issue had
been there. Speaking of drinks, I have never seen the
amount of alcohol being consumed at eight am Central time,
because the game kicked at eleven am Central. There is
no state that consumes alcohol in the nation, and I've

(02:17):
been everywhere that is even close to Wisconsin. Those people
drink in Wisconsin like I've never seen anything resembling. I mean,
Madison at eight am, Buck, it was like Bourbon Street
at two am level drunk. And I've been everywhere there

(02:37):
is to go and watch games, and everywhere that you
can go in the United States. Vegas Strip, Nashville, Bourbon Street.
I've never seen anything like eight or nine am level
drunk in Madison. And they didn't even open the liquor
stores until nine AM. And all the kids were when
we drove by, all the kids were lined up like

(02:59):
they were buying concert tickets outside of the liquor stores
to be able to buy as much alcohol as they
could when they opened the liquor stores in Madison at
nine am.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
I'm just I can't process alcohol the way us too, man.
I honestly, if I have a glass of wine before
you know, five pm, I need a nap. Like I
just can't do it anymore. I don't know what's happened
to me. I've gotten old, but I don't have it
in me. Other folks can do it, I can't do it.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Two biggest drinker fan bases that I have ever seen,
Wisconsin and LSU, and they played a game a couple
of years ago up in Green Bay. They might as
well have just put in a pipeline of alcohol to
be able to handle the amount of demand.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
That was going to be there.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
I'm not kidding. I've been at almost every fan basis games.
LSU and Wisconsin are the two craziest drinking fan bases
I've ever seen in my life.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Got another VIP email from Bruce Hey, Clay and Buck.
Voting starts first week of October twenty twenty four in Lawrence,
where I reside. According to voter registration, they're going to
mail out voter ballots for this coming election. At that time,
we're about fifty eight miles west of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Thank you. Yeah,
I mean, really, all roads lead to Pennsylvania in this election,

(04:17):
I think, and I think that whoever has a better
ground game in that state and ballot chase operation and
early by the way, you see Trump put out on
truth Social just today, vote early. Yeah, he's telling everybody
vote early. He knows.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
And in Pennsylvania, counties control how soon their ballots can
go out. So some counties in Pennsylvania have already begun
the process of getting those ballots out.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
And I did.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
I I was reading to you. There is data out
there that suggests that Democrats are way down in the
number of ballots that they are requesting for the twenty
twenty four election. I think Tommy Tuberville, who was just
on with a senator from out Alabama, pointed out they
greased the wheels in every way they could to get

(05:05):
their turnout up in twenty twenty four, do we still
have the official bet? I think fewer people are going
to vote in twenty twenty four than voted in twenty twenty.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I s ya this. I'm just we can mark this
down to be clear. I'm not this one. I don't know.
It's too close election, that's.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Kind of it.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
I think it's gonna be. If you're asking me, I
think it'll be within five million of what it was
last time, which is effectively the same. But I don't
really have an opinion on whether it's more. You think
it's going to be a lot less, right, I don't
think it'll be.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
I just think, well, five millions a lot in the
they let's say that there was one hundred and fifty
six million last year. I think there will be one
hundred and fifty million or fewer voters in twenty twenty four.
I think they're going to struggle to get that number
up like they did before. I just think you're boxing
me in because you know that I got to buy
you a stake this weekend, and the raiders already running

(05:53):
up high on it. So no, I'm not walking into
this trap. I'm going to just defer.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Clay's made his statement about the more voting or less
voting this time around, and I say, good for you, Clay.
Let's see if that's correct.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
Your lovely wife Carrie has already made us a reservation
Sunday night down in Miami. That steak is going to
taste absolutely delectable when I cut into it in Worried South.
What particular area of Miami is that restaurant?

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Well till everybody after we've gone, you know, we don't
need any lunatics showing up there from the Kamala camp
and yelling at us. But it'll be very good, very good, very.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Good Sunday hang with Clay and Buck.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
David Muhr tried to correct me when I said that
crime is rampant like never before. He said, don't know.
He said crime is going down. They said, where are
you coming from? And you know, you wouldn't have to
need a Bureau of Justice statistics to know that crime
is worse than it's ever been. And I guess they
probably watched the debate and they heard this, this foolish man,

(07:02):
this foolish fool make that statement to me that no,
no crime is coming down. The FBI said it was
coming down. The FBI defrauded everybody because what they did
is they used statistics not including some of the worst
areas and some of the worst cities. So the real
numbers are from the Bureau of Justice statistics and they
just released it. So I think they probably liked me

(07:23):
because they wanted to defend me from people that are
not smart, from a guy who has good hair, but
not as good as it was five years ago.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
I'll be honest, Just Gould may hear that. First of all,
he's right on the facts, which I think is important
on the crime issue, but he just throws it at
the at the end. The hair is not as good
as it was five years ago. Say what you will.
Trump's hair age very well, same hair. Guy's got the
same hair for as long as I could remember, like
as long as I've been alive. So, because classics never

(07:52):
go out of style, we're.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
Being deluged with emails about Bill Malugin. We need to
get on the show at some point, and not just
because he's incredibly good looking and also David Muir. Mary
wrote into me, Clay Buck, what's your infatuation with him? Clay,
he looks like John Carrey, looks like he could be
a son fifteen inches between the top of his forehead

(08:14):
in the middle of his chin. Whenever he interviews or presents,
he sounds cranky and depressed, like a mini John Carey.
Mary is not happy how many thing he's a good
looking guy. I think you know, I'm sorry you got
an email that this is not helping the One of
the greatest insults that's ever been levied against the.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Show, Clay cannot tell a lie when it comes to
another handsome guy. We have Arthur writing in on X
to us guys talking about how handsome dudes are is
not good for the Kate, Travis and Cuck Sexton nicknames.
And to this, I just say, you know, I mean,

(08:51):
we're just talking, just two guys talking about things. I
don't know. You know, sometimes stuff happens for.

Speaker 4 (08:56):
People who missed. I think the funniest email that's ever
been sent in to the show was a guy insulting
us by saying Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show more
like Gay Travis and Cuck Sexton show, which I gotta
be honest. I mean I read it and I couldn't
stop laughing about it. My thing is, if you are
a guy who pretends that you can't tell if another

(09:19):
man is good looking or not, I think you're trying
too hard. I think you're trying to pretend that you
don't actually notice it.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Bill Belus.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
We cover a lot of ground here on the show play.
A minute ago, we were talking about how to get
Mid East peace going with you know, decades long CIA veteran.
You got another CIA you know, former officer here, and
now we're talking about whether it's okay to talk about
how handsome Bill Malugin is. So I'm just you know,
our friends who listen over at Fox News must be like, Wow,

(09:48):
they must really like Bill Malugit.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
Our good friend, producer Greg actually did a tale of
the tape research here. Bill Malugin thirty three, David Muir
fifty one. I mean that's a generational divide again. I
think you have to kind of meld them. You have
to raise Bill ten, decline David Muir ten, and then
you assess them at the age of forty to find

(10:11):
out who's more handsome. I've said before, I think Bill
Malugin is the best looking person on Fox News.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
No insult, all right, now we're going too long on
this now.

Speaker 4 (10:21):
No assault, No insult to Tommy Larin, no insult to
to to. I don't know all the good women, but no,
I'm just saying there are a lot of good looking
women on Fox News. I think Bill Malugin is better
looking as a man than they are for a woman.
And there there's no insult there. I'm just saying he's

(10:42):
He's a very handsome man. So's David Muir. I wish
he was better at moderating. I wish he could trade
some of his handsomeness. I'll take it, I need it,
and he could instead be better at moderating. I think
I would have been a better moderator. But he's a
better looking man.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
In a minute, we're gonna talk about how to save
the country and this election, and then do you think
do you think Ron Johnson has a strong take on
which man's better looking? Ron listens, I think we should
talk to Ron john about the economy on the border first.
Can we just agree with that before we ask him
who's Hansom Er? Clay.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
I think Ron might not want to answer the question
because it's hard. It's a hard choice.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
You know, it's funny closing up shop here on Clay
and Buck. I just get it's so funny because we
get we get.

Speaker 6 (11:21):
A bunch of you reready like stop talking about who's hot,
you're all and I'm like, all right, all right, we'll
get into policy and then and then some of you
are just deluging the inbox with your commentary on Clay's
who's hot or who's not in media commentary, and you
just keep poking the bear over here.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
You know, you just keep poking the bear and he's
not gonna stop. Uh So, we have a lot of those,
a lot of those coming in here, and you know,
we got to have to have.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
Some fun among the seriousness. You've got an email somebody's
fired up at me.

Speaker 3 (11:53):
Should I just read this email as it came in?
Do I have your permission to just read?

Speaker 4 (11:57):
You get whatever they say about me? You can deliver
the insult to me.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
Vip listener Bucky writes, Buck, please tell Gay that Shannon
Bream is better looking than any of the other male
or female talent on Fox News. I will say Shannon
Bream very pretty, very smart, very nice. So I can't
disagree with Bucky that she's an exceptional lady. I'll leave

(12:25):
the rest of Clay okay. So I love Shannon and
her husband, Sheldon. Fun fact if you are a baseball fan,
Sheldon Bream is the brother of Sid Bream, who scored
in one of the most iconic plays in baseball history.
But we got a bunch of stuff coming in. Change

(12:45):
the name of the show, Douglas says VIP listener to
the Gay and Buck Show. I'm just gonna say, the
Gay and Buck Show might be a hard sell to advertisers.
Just ausn't it out There a lot of shots coming
my way.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
I'm not gonna apologize if you have to rename the
show Gay and Buck because I'm telling the truth, which
is Bill Malugin is a very good looking man. I
want to say this to close out the show today.
Tommy Laryn, good looking Emily Campagno, Lisa Booth, Shannon Bream,
and Sundry other very attractive, smart, intelligent Fox News employees.

(13:24):
This is what happens. You can't hold it. You can't
hold a candle to Bill Malugin. He's better looking than
all of you are. I say that is an unabassed
heterosexual man. Tommy, Emily, Lisa, Shannon, you're all very pretty,
Harris Faukner, all very great looking. Bill Malugin is the
king of the castle. And he's the best looking person

(13:46):
on Fox News. I tell you Guyannity, he's up next.
You keep you keep poking the honey badger over.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Here, Sunday drop with Buck.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
You know, sometimes we get a still. I'm sorry, Clay,
I just jumped in. You're supposed to jump in, and
I just he's just said this to me. I have
reminded of reading this this morning. A fun, silly story.
But this zoo in China.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
I just waited the video. If people want to look
at it, we'll put it up. It is very funny
if you need a laugh.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
They've put these stiff with dogs painted like panda bears
in an enclosure and said that they were panda bears.
And now people finally figured out, because the pandas were
barking like dogs, that they aren't in fact pad is Anyway,
I thought this was a fun one.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
It seems like kind of a flaw might have been noticed.
Wait a minute, what if the dogs bark? They are
really really funny. By the way, you get your Crocketcoffee
dot Com right now and let me read some of these.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yesterday.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
Speaking of funny, you guys have been deluging us with
absolutely hysterical emails. In the VIP, Jim says, all this
Bill Malugin talk from Clay has me thinking that he's
a closet flute player. That's that's very funny, very well played.
Pierce says, Hey, Clay and Buck, I'm one of the

(15:04):
rare gay conservatives. I must corroborate Clay's take. Bill Malugin
as hot as hell. I don't watch TV news at
all because it drives me bonkers. So I had actually
never heard of him before I looked him up online.
What show is he on? I might have to give
Fox another try if they've got icon eye candy like that.

(15:25):
I mean, these are really hysterical emails. Anyway, I appreciate
all of you reacting. Bill Malugin may come on the
show potentially tomorrow. I'll do my best to contain myself
if you want to laugh. In addition to the dog
disguised as Panda's in the Chinese zoo, which is very,

(15:46):
very funny. I tweeted about the Bill Malugin discussion yesterday
on the show. Your comments in response to that are
a gold mine at Clay Travis. You can go check
that out. I appreciate all of you. We gotta laugh
because God knows the next forty five days are going
to be stressful. We got to have some humor along
the way.

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Sunday Sizzle with Clay and fuss Box.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
News is own. Bill Malugin joins us a man who's
reporting from the border, among other fantastic things about the
man Clay. We'll get to that in a second. Reporting
from the border has been phenomenal and Bill, appreciate you
joining us, making the time.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Oh thanks for having me, guys, I appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
What do you see and I'll start with this one.
What do you see in most recently day to day?
What is the situation like at the US Mexico border.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
So the illegal crossings have dropped this year, but you
kind of have to look at what they're doing out
of the public eye, so we're not seeing as many
people walking across the river kind of all those images
you were seeing over the last few years. So what
is happening now.

Speaker 5 (16:53):
Well.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Seventy to eighty thousand people are coming in every month
through these quote unquote lawful programs that the An administration
created to cut down on illegal crossing. So what are
those programs. They're the controversial ones. You keep hearing about
that CBP one cell phone app. They're bringing in one thousand,
five hundred migrants every single day with that. They show
up at a port of entry with an appointment on
their cell phone, they go to a bridge, CBP releases

(17:17):
them into the country. There's also the Migrant Flights Parole program,
the CHNV program, where they are letting migrants fly into
the United States. So between those two programs, the flight
program has up to thirty thousand a month, and then
the CBP one app has fifteen hundred. To day, You've
got seventy thousand and eighty thousand migrants coming into the
country via those two programs every single month, and they

(17:40):
are never counted in southern border numbers. It's pretty wild, Bill.

Speaker 4 (17:44):
You do phenomenal work. I have to imagine that you
were flying around in a helicopter somewhere on the border.
You're reporting breaking news all the time for Fox News,
and then you happen to look down at your phone
and see that Clay Travis, Fox News Guy and also
Radio Guy, has branded you the best looking.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
Man or woman on Fox News.

Speaker 4 (18:03):
What were the mentions like and have your mentions ever
looked like that before?

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Oh? Man, it was incredible. I was laughing my ass off.
I was working in Chicago, actually, I was filming at
our bureau there, and then my phone just started blowing
up with like a bunch of guy friends girlfriends sending
me the link to your tweet. And I started seeing
the memes people were making with the aid fakes and
all that, and man, I was cracking up. It was hilarious.

(18:30):
One of the better things I've seen. It got a
lot of traffic, man, good.

Speaker 4 (18:33):
Oh yeah, yeah, we got kind of a big show here.
We had a lot of fun with it. But you
are and this is actually really important. I think there
was substantial amounts of time when you were it felt
like the only reporter at the entire border covering it
at at all. Right, it wasn't And this is a

(18:53):
major issue. Did you ever sit around to yourself thinking,
how in the world is no one else here right
such that you could have a beat like that, Like
you said, you're in Chicago, I don't know. There'll probably
be one hundred people who show up for a Chicago
Cubs press briefing, right like, oh, people like the Cubs,
White Sox, whatever, And yet there's nobody that actually even

(19:15):
hardly covers the border at all.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
What does that say?

Speaker 3 (19:18):
And do you ever look.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
Around when you're doing this reporting and think to yourself,
it's stunning how few people are actually willing to spend
the time to tell people what's happening here.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, Clay, Basically every day for a couple of years,
I was just in disbelief because we would have these
major breaking news events going. I mean, we all remember
the twenty thousand Haitians under the bridge in Del Rio.
We were the first ones out there for three days
before any other media outlet ever showed up. And that
played out over and over in twenty twenty one, twenty

(19:50):
twenty two, early parts of twenty twenty three. We would
have these just insane days of massive illegal crossings, NonStop,
total free for all. We'd have our drones in the air,
we'd be showing everything NonStop, and only towards the tail
end of it would other national media outlets finally show up,
and then when they did show up, they would cover

(20:10):
something else. Like with the Haitians. They weren't talking about
the twenty thousand people violating the sovereignty of the United
States walking, and they were talking about the false narrative
that spread that border patrol agents were whipping Haitians. That
was the narrative that started going around. So when they
did show up to cover it, it was talking about
the plight of the migrants or this or that, never
about the national security concerns, never about the mass catch

(20:32):
and release, And it was just wild to watch that
over the years. Now, what finally changed that, in my opinion,
was when Governor Abbott finally started sending busloads of migrants
to these blue sanctuary cities. Then the border got brought
to them. Then all of a sudden, they started seeing
what was happening to their city budgets and what was
happening in their city streets. They started carrying a little

(20:53):
bit more. Then it got more into the headlines. But yeah,
I mean, it was a total free for all down
there for a couple of years, and they're seemed to
be little to zero interest from any other media outside
of Fox News and maybe News Nation, New York Posts
and some of the other outlets.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Speaking of Bill Mallusion of Fox News, who does phenomenal
reporting from down on the border, and Bill to that,
and I'm just wondering if you've experienced this, because I
saw a little of it my few times down there.
Are you getting a different level of access and just
a different level of information sharing from government agencies that

(21:32):
deal with the border under the Biden administration that you
did say under the Trump administration or has it been
uniform for you?

Speaker 2 (21:40):
It's been night and day different under the Biden administration.
Let me put it this way. In all my years
covering the border under the Biden administration, I've not gotten
one single ride along with Border Patrol. Not there we
go on. I've done it with Texas DPS a million times.
The only way we're able to get any information from
this Biden administration DHS is to have sources leak it
to us. Now, thankfully, doing this work over the last

(22:02):
few years, I got a ton of sources and Border
Patrol CBP ice and they do leak stuff to us
because they trust me and they know I'm not going
to burn them. At this point, but trying to get
anything from this administration is like trying to draw water
from a rock. I mean, for God's sake, A couple
of months ago, I filed a Freedom of Information Act
request just to get the nationalities of people arrested on
the terror watch list by Border Patrol. They rejected it

(22:25):
and said the privacy of those terror suspects outweighs any
public interest in it. So then I appealed and they
denied my appeal exact same reasoning that they think it
would give up national security information and they have to
respect the privacy of terror suspects. I mean, it's absolutely
insane trying to get anything out of these folks. It
just makes it makes you want to bang your head

(22:46):
against the wall.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
Guys, we're talking to Billbilujin Fox News. Bill, you saw
what happened when Trump was replaced by Joe Biden. The
border completely changes. Kamala Harris now says, hey, I'll build
a border wall. We're going to hire a bunch of
new border control people that I think is her playing
to the middle part of the country based on your
experience covering the border. If Kamala wins, will we see

(23:10):
what we saw when Biden won all over again.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
I think you will because she was part of the
administration and she stood by the policies that unraveled all
of the Trump era policies.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
She stood up.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
There in twenty nineteen and said she wants to close
every ice attention facility on day number one. She says
she wants to decriminalize illegal crossings. She said a border wall,
is it necessary? It's racist. Now she's using that border
wall in her ads. I mean, has she had a
sudden change of heart. Maybe, But a lot of what

(23:42):
she's saying is coming from anonymous campaign officials who won't
go on the record until we hear it directly from
her mouth. About what she's going to do at the border.
She can say she wants more border patrol funding and
this and that, but you got to look at her
track record. I mean, she says she she wants more
funding now, but in twenty eighteen, she was sending letters

(24:04):
to her Senate colleagues urging them to not vote for
funding for ice and border patrol because it was the
Trump administration back then. So we all know that Democrats
have to deal with the far left wing of their party.
The open borders activist part of their party, and they
got a hold of the Biden administration early on because
look what I mean, look what happened at the border.
They literally unraveled every single thing that Trump did, even

(24:26):
some of the stuff that would have worked. They stopped
a national declaration of emergency at the border on day
number one. That just gives more resources. So look, until
Kamala Harris proves otherwise, I think that yes, if she
gets back into office, you're likely going to see probably
similar policies to what they had under the Biden administration
because she is part of the Biden administration.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Bill Malujin everybody of Fox News we've got well, Bill,
are you in Springfield? Is that right?

Speaker 2 (24:57):
I'm in Springfield.

Speaker 5 (24:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
I was just at the town hall with vivekro Swami
last night with all the locals.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Do you have a minute to tell us about it?
I know you got to go, but we warned at
least throw it out there if you got a second,
go ahead.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Absolutely so, just a lot of frustration. You know, this
town has I think a little over upwards of sixty
thousand people, and in recent years they've had more than
fifteen thousand Haitian migrants show up, some of them through
legal programs like the CBP one HAPLF and those migrant
flights I was talking about, But I mean you're talking.
You know, twenty percent of the city is now Haitian

(25:28):
migrants that don't speak the language, that don't know the culture.
The locals say they don't really know how to drive.
They're always getting in the car accidents. Housing prices are
going up because slumboords are essentially having twenty of them
pack into a house and charging them higher, lower rent
than they would the locals who live out here. But
they're just really frustrated with the federal government for allowing

(25:49):
so many Haitians to come in. They're frustrated with their
local leaders. They say they're not paying any attention to them.
So they were thrilled when Vivet came in last night
and basically gave them an open microphone to sound off
on everything. And they're pissed off that a lot of
the country and some of the media has set they're
racist for speaking out about this. They said race has

(26:09):
nothing to do with it, that they feel the same
way if it was twenty thousand Swedish coming in. They're
basically just telling Americans, like, imagine living in a town
of fifty thousand and having fifteen to twenty thousand foreigners
show up in your town overnight and already stretch depleted
city resources. Like one of the biggest complaints we were
hearing is it's taking forever for people to get medical

(26:30):
appointments out here. The wait times are really really long
because the Haitians have saturated the medical care system out here.
So now the governor of Ohio says to try to
fix some of that, he's going to open up a
mobile health clinic in Springfield next week. But those are
just a few of the issues. I mean, it's small town, Ohio,
it's below the poverty line, it's a pretty rough town.

(26:50):
The people here are really kind, and they've just been
thrust into the national spotlight again. Fifteen to twenty thousand
Haitians showing up here. Obviously major cultural differ diferences, economic issues,
and last night they finally felt like they got their
their voices heard a little bit. Trump says he's going
to visit here in recent weeks, but the Republican mayor
of the town doesn't want him to come, says Trump

(27:12):
would deplete resources even further, and that if he decided
not to come, it would be a quote peaceful decision
whatever that means. So yeah, I mean it's it was.
It was good to hear from the folks out here,
and it's just wild covering the border all these years
and seeing all the Haitians at the border and now
going thousands of miles away to Springfield, Ohio and having

(27:36):
a little town out here just inundated with Haitians.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
You know, Bill Mallusian, everybody, great reporting, great hair. Bill,
appreciate you, appreciate it, and we've honestly love you to
come back to talk more about the border as this
gets closer to the election and afterwards because one of
our favorite issues here. Thanks for all you do.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
Yeah, happy to join anytime, guys, Thank

Speaker 3 (27:55):
You, thank you,
