Speaker 1 (00:00):
Happy Thanksgiving from Clay Travis, buck Sexton and everyone here
at the EIB Network. You're listening to the best of
Clay Travis and buck Sexton on the EIB Network. Welcome
into the second hour of the Clay Travis and buck
Sexton Show. Everybody, thanks for being here with us. Want
to get to with you today as promised. Join now bye,
(00:23):
mister Bill O'Reilly. He's got the history tour that'll be
going on. He'll tell us about that with President Trump,
travel around Florida, Texas, some other places coming up soon. Bill,
great to have you back on the program. I appreciate
you guys letting me back. Thank you very much. We
want to get into your history tour with the form
of presidents. That sounds exciting a lot of folks. I'm
sure gonna want to go check it out for themselves. Bill.
(00:44):
In a second, I did just want though your take.
You know, you've seen what we're dealing with here with
this bid administration. You see the polls, you see the
results of policies of decision making year one. What's happening
here well to collapse, There's no question about that. And
I'm surprised I didn't think that Joe Biden would be
a successful president, but I didn't think that his policies
(01:10):
would be so destructive to the country, you know. I
guess I felt that the experience that he accumulated in
the Senate after during all those decades would bring him
to a place where he wouldn't, for example, try to
destroy the fossil fuel industry because the unintended consequence of
(01:33):
that is immediate pain for the American people. So you
don't have to be an economics PhD to figure that
out right, And almost every day he does inexplicable stuff.
So one of my commentaries tonight on the No Spin News,
which guys can hear on Bill O'Reilly dot com, is
(01:54):
that the conservative opposition, the Republican Party, doesn't really have
to do anything now. They just let mister Biden drown
in the quicksand because I don't think he can get
out of it. I don't think he is the intellectual
heft to get out of it, and I don't think
anyone around him is smart enough because they led him here,
(02:19):
they led him to where we are. We're quoting USA Today,
which is a liberal newspaper. Only thirty eight percent of
Americans think he's doing a good job. Bill, Thanks for
coming on. Clay Travis here. Bill Clint, you just mentioned
you don't think he has the intellectual hefton I think
you're right to climb himself out of this hole. Bill
Clinton did it after nineteen ninety four. Barack Obama did
(02:42):
it after twenty ten. I don't think there's any doubt
that the Democrats are headed for an unmitigated disaster in
twenty twenty two. We were talking about this yesterday on
the show. What then becomes of Joe Biden after twenty
twenty two, when he's still in office theoretically for two
more years. I don't think anybody believes that he's capable
of running for reelection. We've never really had a situation
(03:04):
like this in the country. To the extent that he's
already weak and enfeebled and being taken advantage of by
our adversaries. That's only going to get precipitously worse as
his regime continues. Well, he's going to be a placeholder
in the sense that legislation is not going to get
passed unless it's reasonable, and Republicans have to have to
(03:28):
follow my advice and be reasonable. You know, there are
a lot of Republicans who said, oh, voting for that
one point to trillion dollar infrastructure bill that was terrible
and all of this it wasn't terrible. I wouldn't have
voted for it. I would have voted no on it
because I don't believe that the federal government at this
(03:49):
point can follow the money or even cares about where
the money goes. They just throw it into huge block
rants and send it out to California where they'll build
homes for illegal migrants. You know, they don't know where
it's going. There's no regulation for it. So that's why
I would have voted against it. But you have to
have a reason. It just can't be well, we don't
(04:11):
like Biden, we don't like the left, so everything they
do we're going to vote against. The next election next
year and in twenty twenty four will be decided by independence.
And this is where Biden has collapsed the most. According
to that USA Today poll, Independence feel that Biden's doing
(04:32):
a terrible job by US seven to one margin seven
to one, and the Independence are now more numerous than
the Republicans or the Democrats. We're speaking of, Bill O'Reilly
check out more of what he's up to at Bill
O'Reilly dot com. Of course, check out his latest books
as well, and we'll talk about the history tour in
(04:52):
a moment. Bill, I just want to know, after all,
we saw in Virginia a lot of focus on what
they're teaching kids in school. The Democrats seem to think
that playing these semantic games of oh, it's not really CRT,
it's something else. It's you know, racial equity instruction, or
something that doesn't seem like it's gonna it didn't fly
in Virginia. It doesn't seem like it's gonna fly as
(05:13):
a strategy elsewhere. Do you think that this is the
beginning of a movement. Do you think that what happened
in Virginia, where parents are saying enough is enough with
the schools, could spread elsewhere and have an impact on
the midterms. I think it's already over for critical race
theory in the public schools. You'll only get it in
the liberal colleges. I think it's done. People know when
(05:36):
they're being lied too, and to have somebody come on
and say, oh, critical race theory isn't about dividing Americans.
It's about honesty and you're looking at that, You're you're saying,
a seven year old with no frame of reference, no
historical knowledge, can figure out that this isn't a divisive situation.
(06:00):
They're going to be looking at their class made across
the aisle of a different color, and you're having a
teacher saying how bad white people are. That's good for children.
So on a base level, it's a it's so heinous,
so terrible. But here's here's what disturbed me about Virginia.
(06:21):
In Loudon County north of Washington, d C. And that's
where all the CRT stuff exploded and the poor girl
got raped by the kid wearing a skirt and all
of that, Okay, In Loudon County, they still broke from
a colloff. And Loudon County is not a minority community,
it's a white community. So I analyzed that. I said,
(06:45):
what the deuce are these people doing in Loudon County
where it's obvious that parents don't want propaganda, divisive racial
propaganda shove down their children's throats, And McAuliffe is saying,
you don't have a right to voice an opinion on that,
and you still vote for mccoliffe. So here's what I
(07:08):
came up with, and I'd like to hear your guy,
you guys opinion on it. People believe what they want
to believe. It's very hard to shake people from whatever
is in their mind. And you guys know you have
friends and maybe spouses, maybe you know you can't most
(07:28):
times convince people, even if you have overwhelming evidence that
their opinion is wrong. So in Loudon County they hate
Trump all right. In Fairfax County they hate Trump that
overroad all of the local issues because they assign the
(07:51):
Republican Party with Trump. And that's what Mcliffe of course
tried to do. Biden tried to do it, when Obama
tried to do it. When they can pain, they all
try to do it, and enough people bought it, so
the people in Loudon County went from mccolluf. I think
that was the explanation. But it's disturbing, it really is.
I think there's some truth to that bill. And also
(08:13):
obviously the big lies that have managed to be stuck
to President Trump, who you're going to be traveling around
with Russia collusion which has gone up in smoke, and
even the very fine people lying from Charlottesville that Joe
Biden claimed was the motivating factor behind which he decided
to start his campaign, which leads me into this question
with you, Bill, you spend a lot of time with
(08:33):
President Trump. I know you're a student of history. Do
you think Trump will run again in twenty twenty four?
And if he does or does not, how would you
categorize him in a historical context. I know it's always
difficult to think historically in the present day. That's one
of the reason I love studying history. Do you think
he runs? How do you contextualize Trump as a historical president? Well?
(08:59):
Talk to him this morning. He woke me up and
I said, do you ever sleep? He's a vampire, all right.
So he calls me really early in the morning and
we were discussing the tour and the logistics of the
tour and things like that. But he read my column
that I filed over the weekend. It's on Doloreilly dot com.
Anybody can read it, and the column is called corruption
(09:20):
and it details in a very simple way. I'm a
simple man. You guys know that how the Clinton campaign.
Hillary Clinton campaign concocted and financed this bogus Russian collusion
story and they were enabled by the corporate media, and
(09:41):
for more than two years, every single day Trump got
it in the neck from the media, and then all
of a sudden he didn't do it. Now that is
and Drum is still investigating this. If that goes up
to high levels of the Hillary Clinton campaign, that will
(10:01):
be the worst political corruption in this country's history, because
they try to subvert an election by fabricating a story
and the gullible media, corrupt media, picked it up and
ran with it with no scrutiny. I mean, think about
how bad that is. Now a question of Trump running
(10:23):
and he liked the column, by the way, I think
he's sending it out on whatever. I think has Pony
Express riders counselone. I think they go email distribution now bill,
which actually has become more popular because many people social
about whatever he has. I can't figure it out, but
he says, it goes everywhere, and I'm going to put
your column out, And I said, good, you know anybody
(10:43):
can put the column out. But he wants to run again,
There's no doubt about it. And I don't know whether
he's going to be able to run because that will
depend on what happens between now and when the campaign starts,
which is January twenty twenty three because of campaign finance laws,
So you got to get through the midterms next year,
(11:04):
and then as soon as January turns, you'll see them
flood in. But he certainly wants to run. But if
he does run, this is why I'm doing the history tour.
I'm not doing a history tour for any other reason
than to inform the American people on what really happened
(11:24):
during those four years of Trump, because nobody knows what
happened because it was never reported honestly. So for example,
how did you get the fact so fast? It's almost
a miracle. How did it happen? Who did you go to?
How much did it cost? Were there people impeding you?
What about Putin? Did Putent? What kind of guy? Does
he speak English? You know, That's the kind of stuff
(11:46):
I'm going to get into. And the tour has become
so much more important than when I announced it in
early summer because of the Biden collapse, because now independence
are giving up another look. And I told the President
this is why he did it. Took him a while
to do it because he knows how obnoxious I am.
I'm not gonna sit there and be a cupcake. I'm
(12:08):
gonna ask him tough questions and he's gonna have to
answer in front of ten twelve thousand people. So I
said to him, we're gonna tape all this. You're gonna
have a record that's never been out there before. Depending
No matter I saw every interview he did, nobody ever
asked him about any of the positive stuff, how the
(12:29):
economy was good. Listen, he let me give you the
most vivid example I can. Last year, at this time
Trump is in office, right, massive COVID intrusion? Massive? Was
there a supply line problem? Was there? No? Oh, oh,
you're right. There was no supply line problem. In the
(12:51):
worst months of COVID under Trump, we didn't have problem
getting products to the market. Now twelve months we do. Why.
I know why. But this is the kind of stuff
that Americans need to think about it. So you don't
have to like the guy in the Oval office, but
(13:11):
that guy has got to be a problem solver. Bill.
Where should people go to find out more about the tour,
where you'll be and how they can go see you
and former President Trump? Well, we start out on December eleventh, Saturday,
at the l I Vee Live, FLA Arena. That's where
the Panthers play in Flida Dale Sunrise. Then the next
(13:35):
day Sunday, we go to Orlando, Florida. And then the
next weekend we go to the Toyota Toyota Center in
Houston and then Sunday at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas.
Tickets available. You know, if you just make it easier
for yourself, go to Bill Oreilly dot com a link
you over to any of the box office you want.
Ticketmaster has him, Arenas have them. It's the Amway Arena
(13:59):
in Orlando, and we sold about thirty thousand tickets. Guys,
I would love to go watch I was gonna almost
except you guys are not necessarily going to be total
head to head, But I mean I would like to
watch this. If you want to go and this this
is a low level bribe. It's on me there we go.
Just tell me what show you want to go to,
(14:21):
both of you guys, and I'll have you there, all
righty Well, Bill, thanks so much, good luck on the tour,
and everyone should go check out Bill O'Reilly dot comference.

(16:15):
Legacy box dot Com slash Buck. We'll welcome back at
klay trobits, Buck Sex and show appreciate all of you
hanging out with us. Gotta tell you, is that conversation
between Bill O'Reilly and Donald Trump, the ones that they're
having in Florida and in Texas sound really intriguing. IM
I need to go to one of them. But as
he was talking Buck, and as all of this detail
(16:38):
on Russia collusion has come out, and as the Rachel
Maddows and Adam shifts of the world have gotten blown up,
and the Steel dossier has been proven to be filled
with wise I'm wondering historically when you think back about
people who have been accused of crimes or wrongdoing and
utterly vindicated. I don't mean in an OJ sense where like, hey,
(16:59):
he's not guilty, he got great lawyers. What I think
of is Richard Jewell, who was accused of being the
Atlanta Park bomber and was actually the hero who save lives.
And I think of Duke Lacrosse, guys who were accused
of sexual assault actually did nothing at all wrong. And
I wonder historically whether Russia collusion is going to be
able to see Donald Trump as being vindicated having done
(17:21):
nothing wrong. Certainly a lot of people are still gonna
believe that he did nothing wrong. But we're talking about
the possibility of utter and complete vindication for Donald Trump
as it pertains to the Russia collusion lies. I don't
think there'll be any accountability. Really, that's the problem because remember,
journalists at that time did not view and they were
pretty open about this, stunningly so, they did not view
(17:43):
their role in America as getting truthful information to provide
to society so our democracy could function well. It was
hashtag resistance anti Trump and if they had a lie
to do it, they still sleep soundly at night as
the evil little propagandists that they are. So we'll continue
to follow us, though, because it's outrageous what happened. Make
(18:04):
your dog a little healthier today. Order something I've started
feeding our family dog every day when she's taken her meals.
It's called rough Greens. It's a healthy supplement we added
into Telulah, the frencheese food. Think about it. Most of
dog food we buy has to be made for the
likelihood that will be stored on supermarket shelves for a
long time. There's nothing live in that food. Those food
and manufacturers use a sterilization process that kills anything that
(18:26):
would be alive in your pets food that's good for
your pet, like probiotics, enzymes, vitamins, omega oils, healthy microbacteria.
That's why you need rough Greens. It's a healthy supplement
you add into your dogs existing food. Make your dog
healthy or happy or feel better. The folks at rough
Greens are so confident your dog is gonna love it.
They've got a special deal for this show. Go to
Roughgreens dot com slash eib. They're gonna give you the
(18:48):
first bag free. All you pay is shipping. That's RUF
rough Greens dot Com slash eib. Because you see what
happens in Virginia, well in large parts, determine what happens
in twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four, and arm that
(19:14):
is Vice President Kamala Harris for once. I hope she's right.
I believe we are joined now by Senator Marco Rubio
of Florida. Senator, this is probably one of the times
that you hope Kamala Harris is right too, in the
wake of what we saw happen in Virginia, don't you. Yeah,
I know, I think she is right, and I'm glad
she was suppressing about it. And you know, it's not
(19:37):
that I think one election, it's not that people, for example,
in Florida are going to vote a certain way because
people in Virginia voted a certain way. That's not the point.
I mean. The point is, I think it's pretty indicative
of how far removed from reality the people right now
in charge of the federal government are. If you think
about if you think about what they're thinking this morning,
and I've watched a lot of it, but just hearing
and reading a little bit this morning, there is a
(19:58):
group over there on the left that actually thinks that
the reason why they lost this election is because they
haven't passed, they haven't done more of what they're threatening
or want to do, that in essence of these things
happened that what they want became law. People would benefit
from it and they would be happy, and they would
reward them next November. They still don't get that. People
know exactly what they're trying to do, are against it,
(20:19):
and it's the reason why they're rejecting it. The way
I view it is, for three hundred and sixty four
days a year, the people that run our corporate America,
the people that run the media, the commentators, and a
lot of people in charging government, they tell us what
we can think, they tell us what we can do,
they tell us what we're allowed to say. But there's
one day a year, called election day, where the rest
of us tell them how crazy they are. And that's
what yesterday was about. Hey, Senator Rubio, it's back. I
(20:42):
wanted to know what you think about the calculations that
may be made now more broadly by your set at
Democrat colleagues, but specifically by Mansion and Cinema. After what
they saw last night, it feels as though we've been
in living in an upside down country for a while.
Here where a very narrow margin fifty fifty sent very
(21:03):
narrow margin the House somehow justified in Democrats minds a
massive multi trillion dollar additional spending package that they say
is going to be, you know, a game changer. What
do you think happens now from the perspective of the
Democrat holdouts in the Senate who haven't gone along? I mean,
is there is there a position strengthened. What happens to
the Biden build back Better agenda is what I'm really asking.
So I think I think they point to what happened
(21:25):
yesterday as an example of why they're right and why
this overreach is going to cost them even more seats.
And I think they make that argument now from a
political standpoint, I don't think that changes the true believers,
the squad and the people like that, because because these people,
at the end of the day often come from districts,
end or states where you know they're not going to lose,
and they're pushing this radical agenda. But the broader point
is the one you made at the opposite and that is,
(21:45):
somehow people with a fifty fifty Senate, you know, three
or four vote majority in the House and the slummest
the margins that have Joe Biden living in the White House,
somehow think that was a mandate to radically remake the
country that people put them there to take us this
far left. That's not what he campaigned on. There's a
reason why I didn't campaign on the agenda. You know,
Candidate Biden and President Biden are two different people, and
(22:06):
what Biden campaigned on is not how he's governing. And
you know, but somehow we've they think that they have
this mandate to do these radical things, and people are
going to start pushing back, and they've already started starting yesterday.
Cina Rubia, what time frame do you think we work
through now? As you're sitting up there in the Senate,
there had been talked, certainly of the October thirty first
(22:27):
deadline for infrastructure and also for the Biden budget. Is
this something that happens before Thanksgiving? Now? In your mind
where they give votes, do we push it to the
end of the year. How do you assess the timeline
and how much control the Republicans have I at all
over this? Yeah, I don't know. We don't have very
much insight and or control over because they're planning to
(22:47):
do it without it. So really there's an audience of
two or three that they're focused on in the Senate
and in the House a few more. But this poos
our point right the infrastructure. But I voted against it
for this precise reason, and that is it is a hostage.
It is the hostage it's now being held. And what
they're saying that everybody is if you want this bill
that a bunch of you guys agreed on. I didn't,
but you guys agreed on, then you have to give
(23:08):
us this other thing that only we agree on. And
that's that's the hostage they've taken. Now, whether they decide
to release that hostage, I don't know. It sounds like
they're trying to figure out a way to do that
so that Biden can at least get something done and
claim credit for something or an achievement on something. But
I don't know. M On the broader point, you know,
on the spending the Lee. Let me be clear about reconciliation.
It gives me no comfort that they're going to whittle
(23:30):
it down from two point five or three point five
to one point seven five chilling. It's still a socialist
expansion of the government. If you put the government in
charge of PreK in America, it doesn't matter if you
authorize it for two years or five. You put the
government in charge of PreK in America, and then you're
going to tell preks what they can teach, who they
can hire, and who's allowed to provide it. That's the
power they really care about. It's not the it's not
(23:50):
the money they care about controlling these things. It's the
last piece of education in this country they don't control.
We're speaking to Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, and Senator
my understanding is that the anti regime resistance in Cuba
is planning to become active again. There's there's nationwide protests
(24:11):
that are expected in a couple of weeks. This got
on the radar here in the US a few months back,
where it seemed that there was real pressure, unprecedented pressure
on the regime from inside of Cuba. I want to
know what you could tell us a somebody who understands
this and follows it closely at the foreign relations level
about the fight for freedom from inside of Cuba. And
then of course what is the Biden administration doing on this?
(24:33):
Where is the Biden administration on this issue? Well, on
the second point there, they're doing nothing on it at all.
And in some ways it's good because they haven't reversed
the Trump policies because they make sense. In some ways
it's bad because that the people in charge of the
Cuba portfolio inside of this administration are one the same
ones that were in favor of the Obama deal with
Cuba that was a disaster. But my sense of it
(24:54):
is that they don't give it much priority, and to
the extent they give it attention, it's handed off lower
level people in the administration and at the State Department
that are friendly with the regime, including the lady that
now is in charge of Cuba at the State Department
was in charge of putting together congressional trips to Cuba
to hang out with the regime officials and and so forth.
On the first point, this effort to do this march
(25:17):
on November left inside of Cuba, it's not easy, right,
I mean, there are people that are still locked up
in arbitrary detention, you know, three months after what happened
in July. They're pretty brutal about it. They cracked down
pretty hard. They're pretty good at repression, unfortunately. So we're
encouraging and asking people to do something that I admit
right now is easy to say from the outside, but
it's not easy to do from the inside. But I
think there's this realization by younger Cubans that another generation
(25:40):
is going to be lost to this, that their only
choices are going to be to get out of the
country or live the rest of their life languishing in
the system that doesn't work. It doesn't work socially, culturally, morally,
or economically for them, and I think that's being expressed,
and it continues to put pressure on a regime that's
willing to kill in jail its own people to stay
in power. A Rubio, you can have foreign affairs. I'm
(26:01):
not sure if you've seen Enis Cantor. He's a Boston
Celtic player speaking out against Chinese dictatorships. He said something
interesting yesterday and we talked about this a little bit
on the show. As well, we're just right now scheduled
the world is to be in Beijing for the Winter
Olympics in February. Given all that has happened with COVID,
the lies that China has propagated, should we and other
(26:24):
democratic countries like America be going to China and allowing
them to host the Winter Olympics in February of next year. Well,
let me say two things. First of all, I'm not
generally in favor of boycotting because it hurts the athletes
that have trained hard all these years to be prepared
to go. That said that said, I think we have
to look very carefully at the conditions that are being
placed for people that are going so right now that
(26:46):
they've violated all kinds of Olympic rules. Are not allowing
athletes to come in early and acclimate as you're supposed
to do. We don't know the imagine they're putting severe.
I want to see how the media, the American media,
covers the Winter Olympics, because how can you be in
China and not cover the fact that you know these
abuses are going on there, and they seem like the
Chinese authorities are going to try to constrain and keep
(27:07):
everybody in this locked up area where they can't go outside.
And it'll be interesting to see. What I'm going to
be really be watching is how do the outlets that
are covering the Olympics, and the journalists who are sent
there to cover the Olympics, how do they cover it?
I mean, do they actually are they going to actually
write things and put things out there that are going
to be clear and brutally honest about not just the
conditions and the Olympic villages and the conditions around me,
(27:29):
but the conditions in the country that happen to host them.
Or are we going to allow the sort of paid
infomercial where the Chinese can sort of brag about all
the advances they've made and ignore all the negative stuff
they've done. That's something to very watching. I want to
see how this is covered and whether these outlets and
these sponsors pull their punches because they're interested in access
and ratings and not so much and being journalists or
(27:50):
telling the truth. They're being on the side of what's right.
Senator Mark Rubio of Florida, Sir, appreciate you being with us.
You're on the Client Buck Show. Thanks so much. Yeah,
he thank you me back. Thank you guys. So, you know,
I want to know if just just taking us back
around here because we're gonna come into the latest on
the election is actually an update out of Virginia more
good news for Republicans. I love it. I love all
(28:11):
the good you know, sometimes we have to come in
here and say Fauci is ruining the world today. We
get to do a little victory dance, and so that's
a fun thing. Good news, more good news out of Virginia.
I'll tell you what as we come back. I'm also
wondering if if folks in our audience across the country
are looking at what happened in Virginia and saying, oh,
I'm gonna get more involved at school board meetings. I'm
gonna actually join the I mean, I feel like we're
leaving the dads out here. But the mom revolution revolution
(28:34):
Wing a big difference in terms of how they voted
in twenty twenty. That's right. Well, we'll talk about suburban
female vote in this Virginia election was the big game changer.
We'll come into all that in just a moment. Are
you going to change things up? Are you gonna get
more involved? Eight hundred two eight two to eight eight two.
You see how powerful it can be. Will come that
in a minute. You're spending too much money on gas
and food, and what you need to do is take
(28:55):
care of your family. So don't overpay for cell service.
Switched to pere to Cellular. They're on the exact same
five G network, using the same towers as one of
the big three carriers. But you're paying a heck of
a loss, a heck of a lot less for it.
If you're a Verizon AT and t R T mobile,
you're paying too much each month. And how much can
you save fifty or sixty dollars a month, And if
(29:15):
you're paying for a family plan, you could save as
much as get this eight hundred dollars a year. And
switching is so easy. You can keep your number and
your phone, which is really important. Clay, I know you've
got this hooked up with your family. Your kids have
Pure Talk. They love it. We do, in fact love it.
My son's got an iPhone twelve. He's got unlimited talk
tech six gigs of data on Pure Talks five G
network for just thirty bucks a month. If you want
(29:37):
unlimited data, you can still save a ton of money
each month as well. Claire in New York's perfect example,
she had a new iPhone from Pure Talk, kept her
same phone number, got a new simcard, and saved herself
a bundle every month. That's why Pure Talks a to
operated wireless company as measured by consumer Affairs. Their customer
service is also right here in the good old USA.
(29:58):
They have a thirty day risk free guarantee Pierre Talk does.
So you literally have nothing to lose from your cell
phone right now, Dial pound two fifty and say Pure Talk,
and you'll say fifty percent off your first month and
more on a new phone that's pound two five zero,
say pier Talk. Some restrictions apply. Call for detail, welcome
(30:28):
back in play Travis buck Sexton show. We should update people.
I think Buck on what's going on? You can tell
me if you've seen anything more recent. We still have
an uncertain outcome in New Jersey. I'm a look at
I mean, this thing can't get any closer than it
actually is right now. With eighty eight percent reported of
(30:49):
the vote in New Jersey, according to the New York
Times update, there is and a hundred and twenty votes
separating the Republican and the Democrat with the Republican who
you can pronounce better than me, has a literally a
hundred and twenty vote lead with two point four million
(31:09):
votes cast. Yeah at this, I mean, this is crazy. Yeah,
So it's Ciarella. I think if we were doing an
Italian it would be, but it's Cidarelli is the americanized version. Right, people,
do your vote matters in New Jersey? One hundred and
twenty votes separating the Republican in the Democrat, right, everyone
who listens to us, I believe, or at least he
(31:30):
was listening to that point of the show. Remember, I
think I said yesterday, these are going to be the
racist By the way, I believe young Can won by
a little over two percent what I said he was
gonna win by. And I believe I said, you're gonna
these are gonna be now Grant, I was really just
talking about Virginia. But we're seeing in Virginia, I'm sorry,
in New Jersey two where you can actually you go
out and vote and it's meaningful because the numbers are
(31:52):
so tight. You go, oh wow, you know me, my friends,
my family members altogether. I mean, think one hundred and
twenty vote separation, right, now in a state the sized
millions and millions of people in New Jersey, and this
is a blue stronghold state. Friends, I know Governor Chris
Chris Christy years ago was the governor there, and you
can have blue stronghold states with a Republican governor. But
(32:15):
this just shows you once again, the other guy, Murphy
had all the Democrat you know, all the denoting. Yeah
what Hardly anyone even talked about this going to be
closed because everyone thought that that he was gonna get
blown out. But Sidarelli went around and said, this is
what we gotta do. This is what's going on in
(32:36):
our state. This is what I will do if you
make me the governor. Old school politics, you know. The
other guy was going at this, Uh, Murphy was going
at this with the usual oh, you know, and we're
gonna have a lot of money and celebrity and we're
gonna do all this stuff with the Democrat Party just
carrying you along. No, right now, people want to know,
what are you gonna do for me? Because the Democrat
(32:58):
Party is coming up zeros for people in a lot
of places, and the Biden administrations obviously got Hyden Biden.
Oh and I promised everybody a little additional good news
Democrats in Virginia. Virginia Public Access Project had this tweet
a couple hours ago. They wrote, we have a corrected
result in HD House District eighty five. This is for
(33:19):
the state of Virginia. Instead of a Democratic hold, Republican
Karen Greenhog has a two hundred and two vote lead
over first term Democrat alex Askew. So Republicans are now
on track in Virginia for a fifty two to forty
eight lead in the majority in the House the Virginia
State House. So you may have unified read government in
(33:43):
the state of Virginia, which, as you have pointed out
many times, went for Biden by ten points a year ago,
and they had not won a statewide race buck since
two thousand and nine. The Republicans in Virginia, and they
may effectively be winning four the control of the Legislature.
They've already won the ag the Lieutenant governor, and the governor,
(34:06):
a clean sweep in Virginia. And as as as incredible
as the results are in Virginia, New Jersey is the
bigger story. Cidarelli may not end up winning again. He's
up by about one hundred and twenty votes out of
a two point four million that have been cast. I mean,
it's almost impossible to have a closer election. New Jersey's
(34:26):
the bigger surprise, maybe, but I'm a think Virginia is
the bigger story. Bigger, yes, but the bigger I mean, look,
we are now, well now they just flipped it. Murphy's
up like a little bit. So anyway, this thing is
like super tight. I think Murphy may end up fighting
his way through before all is said and done. But regardless,
(34:46):
no one, like we said, hardly even talked about New Jersey,
but the sign there Biden won by sixteen. We're talking
about a state that's effectively dead even right now. And
Buck we talked about yesterday. We said it Virginia. If
the Republicans win, and they have, it's going to embolden
You asked this question as we were going to break
here a second ago. It's going to embolden a lot
(35:07):
of other states that maybe slanted towards the Democrats to
feel like if they could do it in Virginia, why
can't we do it here, especially in twenty twenty two. Well,
I mean, this is there's so much here and I
do remember because I got into I got into conservative
media right at the origins around McClay. I think we
got in around the same time into media the origins
(35:29):
of the Tea Party movement and how that was about
people at the local level understanding, hey, we can come
together and we actually have political voice. We actually can
turn elections one way or the other if we get
involved and school board meetings and what's being taught to
your kids really matters to people, not just in Virginia,
all over the country. And you heard Younkins saying, let's
(35:51):
not see the public school system to the lunatics. That's
not only have people on the right talking about homeschooling
and you know, taking your kids out of the system entirely.
Let's create more choice, Let's create a better system. Let's
allow parents to pick where their kids are going. Let's
work to make the system better as it stands now
with conservative principles instead of just abandoning it. That's a
(36:11):
message that can resonate, I think across all fifty states,
no doubt at all. I mean, it is such a
fabulous day to wake up and be in favor of
American exceptionalism. You talked about Buck, sometimes we have to
sit down and we have to talk about all the
idiot see a fauci or whatever the latest restrictions are.
I'll be damned if it didn't feel great to sit
down in front of this mic and start off the
(36:33):
show this first hour talking about a huge, massive ass
kicking that we put on Democrats in Virginia. More to come, Clay,
and it's fun. I gotta say, man, Virginia made its
proud even Jersey. Hey, Jersey, you make it as proud Jersey.
You're listening to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton fund the
(36:54):
EIB Network three
Happy Thanksgiving from Clay Travis, buck Sexton and everyone here
at the EIB Network. You're listening to the best of
Clay Travis and buck Sexton on the EIB Network. Welcome
into the second hour of the Clay Travis and buck
Sexton Show. Everybody, thanks for being here with us. Want
to get to with you today as promised. Join now bye,
(00:23):
mister Bill O'Reilly. He's got the history tour that'll be
going on. He'll tell us about that with President Trump,
travel around Florida, Texas, some other places coming up soon. Bill,
great to have you back on the program. I appreciate
you guys letting me back. Thank you very much. We
want to get into your history tour with the form
of presidents. That sounds exciting a lot of folks. I'm
sure gonna want to go check it out for themselves. Bill.
(00:44):
In a second, I did just want though your take.
You know, you've seen what we're dealing with here with
this bid administration. You see the polls, you see the
results of policies of decision making year one. What's happening
here well to collapse, There's no question about that. And
I'm surprised I didn't think that Joe Biden would be
a successful president, but I didn't think that his policies
(01:10):
would be so destructive to the country, you know. I
guess I felt that the experience that he accumulated in
the Senate after during all those decades would bring him
to a place where he wouldn't, for example, try to
destroy the fossil fuel industry because the unintended consequence of
(01:33):
that is immediate pain for the American people. So you
don't have to be an economics PhD to figure that
out right, And almost every day he does inexplicable stuff.
So one of my commentaries tonight on the No Spin News,
which guys can hear on Bill O'Reilly dot com, is
(01:54):
that the conservative opposition, the Republican Party, doesn't really have
to do anything now. They just let mister Biden drown
in the quicksand because I don't think he can get
out of it. I don't think he is the intellectual
heft to get out of it, and I don't think
anyone around him is smart enough because they led him here,
(02:19):
they led him to where we are. We're quoting USA Today,
which is a liberal newspaper. Only thirty eight percent of
Americans think he's doing a good job. Bill, Thanks for
coming on. Clay Travis here. Bill Clint, you just mentioned
you don't think he has the intellectual hefton I think
you're right to climb himself out of this hole. Bill
Clinton did it after nineteen ninety four. Barack Obama did
(02:42):
it after twenty ten. I don't think there's any doubt
that the Democrats are headed for an unmitigated disaster in
twenty twenty two. We were talking about this yesterday on
the show. What then becomes of Joe Biden after twenty
twenty two, when he's still in office theoretically for two
more years. I don't think anybody believes that he's capable
of running for reelection. We've never really had a situation
(03:04):
like this in the country. To the extent that he's
already weak and enfeebled and being taken advantage of by
our adversaries. That's only going to get precipitously worse as
his regime continues. Well, he's going to be a placeholder
in the sense that legislation is not going to get
passed unless it's reasonable, and Republicans have to have to
(03:28):
follow my advice and be reasonable. You know, there are
a lot of Republicans who said, oh, voting for that
one point to trillion dollar infrastructure bill that was terrible
and all of this it wasn't terrible. I wouldn't have
voted for it. I would have voted no on it
because I don't believe that the federal government at this
(03:49):
point can follow the money or even cares about where
the money goes. They just throw it into huge block
rants and send it out to California where they'll build
homes for illegal migrants. You know, they don't know where
it's going. There's no regulation for it. So that's why
I would have voted against it. But you have to
have a reason. It just can't be well, we don't
(04:11):
like Biden, we don't like the left, so everything they
do we're going to vote against. The next election next
year and in twenty twenty four will be decided by independence.
And this is where Biden has collapsed the most. According
to that USA Today poll, Independence feel that Biden's doing
(04:32):
a terrible job by US seven to one margin seven
to one, and the Independence are now more numerous than
the Republicans or the Democrats. We're speaking of, Bill O'Reilly
check out more of what he's up to at Bill
O'Reilly dot com. Of course, check out his latest books
as well, and we'll talk about the history tour in
(04:52):
a moment. Bill, I just want to know, after all,
we saw in Virginia a lot of focus on what
they're teaching kids in school. The Democrats seem to think
that playing these semantic games of oh, it's not really CRT,
it's something else. It's you know, racial equity instruction, or
something that doesn't seem like it's gonna it didn't fly
in Virginia. It doesn't seem like it's gonna fly as
(05:13):
a strategy elsewhere. Do you think that this is the
beginning of a movement. Do you think that what happened
in Virginia, where parents are saying enough is enough with
the schools, could spread elsewhere and have an impact on
the midterms. I think it's already over for critical race
theory in the public schools. You'll only get it in
the liberal colleges. I think it's done. People know when
(05:36):
they're being lied too, and to have somebody come on
and say, oh, critical race theory isn't about dividing Americans.
It's about honesty and you're looking at that, You're you're saying,
a seven year old with no frame of reference, no
historical knowledge, can figure out that this isn't a divisive situation.
(06:00):
They're going to be looking at their class made across
the aisle of a different color, and you're having a
teacher saying how bad white people are. That's good for children.
So on a base level, it's a it's so heinous,
so terrible. But here's here's what disturbed me about Virginia.
(06:21):
In Loudon County north of Washington, d C. And that's
where all the CRT stuff exploded and the poor girl
got raped by the kid wearing a skirt and all
of that, Okay, In Loudon County, they still broke from
a colloff. And Loudon County is not a minority community,
it's a white community. So I analyzed that. I said,
(06:45):
what the deuce are these people doing in Loudon County
where it's obvious that parents don't want propaganda, divisive racial
propaganda shove down their children's throats, And McAuliffe is saying,
you don't have a right to voice an opinion on that,
and you still vote for mccoliffe. So here's what I
(07:08):
came up with, and I'd like to hear your guy,
you guys opinion on it. People believe what they want
to believe. It's very hard to shake people from whatever
is in their mind. And you guys know you have
friends and maybe spouses, maybe you know you can't most
(07:28):
times convince people, even if you have overwhelming evidence that
their opinion is wrong. So in Loudon County they hate
Trump all right. In Fairfax County they hate Trump that
overroad all of the local issues because they assign the
(07:51):
Republican Party with Trump. And that's what Mcliffe of course
tried to do. Biden tried to do it, when Obama
tried to do it. When they can pain, they all
try to do it, and enough people bought it, so
the people in Loudon County went from mccolluf. I think
that was the explanation. But it's disturbing, it really is.
I think there's some truth to that bill. And also
(08:13):
obviously the big lies that have managed to be stuck
to President Trump, who you're going to be traveling around
with Russia collusion which has gone up in smoke, and
even the very fine people lying from Charlottesville that Joe
Biden claimed was the motivating factor behind which he decided
to start his campaign, which leads me into this question
with you, Bill, you spend a lot of time with
(08:33):
President Trump. I know you're a student of history. Do
you think Trump will run again in twenty twenty four?
And if he does or does not, how would you
categorize him in a historical context. I know it's always
difficult to think historically in the present day. That's one
of the reason I love studying history. Do you think
he runs? How do you contextualize Trump as a historical president? Well?
(08:59):
Talk to him this morning. He woke me up and
I said, do you ever sleep? He's a vampire, all right.
So he calls me really early in the morning and
we were discussing the tour and the logistics of the
tour and things like that. But he read my column
that I filed over the weekend. It's on Doloreilly dot com.
Anybody can read it, and the column is called corruption
(09:20):
and it details in a very simple way. I'm a
simple man. You guys know that how the Clinton campaign.
Hillary Clinton campaign concocted and financed this bogus Russian collusion
story and they were enabled by the corporate media, and
(09:41):
for more than two years, every single day Trump got
it in the neck from the media, and then all
of a sudden he didn't do it. Now that is
and Drum is still investigating this. If that goes up
to high levels of the Hillary Clinton campaign, that will
(10:01):
be the worst political corruption in this country's history, because
they try to subvert an election by fabricating a story
and the gullible media, corrupt media, picked it up and
ran with it with no scrutiny. I mean, think about
how bad that is. Now a question of Trump running
(10:23):
and he liked the column, by the way, I think
he's sending it out on whatever. I think has Pony
Express riders counselone. I think they go email distribution now bill,
which actually has become more popular because many people social
about whatever he has. I can't figure it out, but
he says, it goes everywhere, and I'm going to put
your column out, And I said, good, you know anybody
(10:43):
can put the column out. But he wants to run again,
There's no doubt about it. And I don't know whether
he's going to be able to run because that will
depend on what happens between now and when the campaign starts,
which is January twenty twenty three because of campaign finance laws,
So you got to get through the midterms next year,
(11:04):
and then as soon as January turns, you'll see them
flood in. But he certainly wants to run. But if
he does run, this is why I'm doing the history tour.
I'm not doing a history tour for any other reason
than to inform the American people on what really happened
(11:24):
during those four years of Trump, because nobody knows what
happened because it was never reported honestly. So for example,
how did you get the fact so fast? It's almost
a miracle. How did it happen? Who did you go to?
How much did it cost? Were there people impeding you?
What about Putin? Did Putent? What kind of guy? Does
he speak English? You know, That's the kind of stuff
(11:46):
I'm going to get into. And the tour has become
so much more important than when I announced it in
early summer because of the Biden collapse, because now independence
are giving up another look. And I told the President
this is why he did it. Took him a while
to do it because he knows how obnoxious I am.
I'm not gonna sit there and be a cupcake. I'm
(12:08):
gonna ask him tough questions and he's gonna have to
answer in front of ten twelve thousand people. So I
said to him, we're gonna tape all this. You're gonna
have a record that's never been out there before. Depending
No matter I saw every interview he did, nobody ever
asked him about any of the positive stuff, how the
(12:29):
economy was good. Listen, he let me give you the
most vivid example I can. Last year, at this time
Trump is in office, right, massive COVID intrusion? Massive? Was
there a supply line problem? Was there? No? Oh, oh,
you're right. There was no supply line problem. In the
(12:51):
worst months of COVID under Trump, we didn't have problem
getting products to the market. Now twelve months we do. Why.
I know why. But this is the kind of stuff
that Americans need to think about it. So you don't
have to like the guy in the Oval office, but
(13:11):
that guy has got to be a problem solver. Bill.
Where should people go to find out more about the tour,
where you'll be and how they can go see you
and former President Trump? Well, we start out on December eleventh, Saturday,
at the l I Vee Live, FLA Arena. That's where
the Panthers play in Flida Dale Sunrise. Then the next
(13:35):
day Sunday, we go to Orlando, Florida. And then the
next weekend we go to the Toyota Toyota Center in
Houston and then Sunday at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas.
Tickets available. You know, if you just make it easier
for yourself, go to Bill Oreilly dot com a link
you over to any of the box office you want.
Ticketmaster has him, Arenas have them. It's the Amway Arena
(13:59):
in Orlando, and we sold about thirty thousand tickets. Guys,
I would love to go watch I was gonna almost
except you guys are not necessarily going to be total
head to head, But I mean I would like to
watch this. If you want to go and this this
is a low level bribe. It's on me there we go.
Just tell me what show you want to go to,
(14:21):
both of you guys, and I'll have you there, all
righty Well, Bill, thanks so much, good luck on the tour,
and everyone should go check out Bill O'Reilly dot comference.

Legacy box dot Com slash Buck. We'll welcome back at
klay trobits, Buck Sex and show appreciate all of you
hanging out with us. Gotta tell you, is that conversation
between Bill O'Reilly and Donald Trump, the ones that they're
having in Florida and in Texas sound really intriguing. IM
I need to go to one of them. But as
he was talking Buck, and as all of this detail
(16:38):
on Russia collusion has come out, and as the Rachel
Maddows and Adam shifts of the world have gotten blown up,
and the Steel dossier has been proven to be filled
with wise I'm wondering historically when you think back about
people who have been accused of crimes or wrongdoing and
utterly vindicated. I don't mean in an OJ sense where like, hey,
(16:59):
he's not guilty, he got great lawyers. What I think
of is Richard Jewell, who was accused of being the
Atlanta Park bomber and was actually the hero who save lives.
And I think of Duke Lacrosse, guys who were accused
of sexual assault actually did nothing at all wrong. And
I wonder historically whether Russia collusion is going to be
able to see Donald Trump as being vindicated having done
(17:21):
nothing wrong. Certainly a lot of people are still gonna
believe that he did nothing wrong. But we're talking about
the possibility of utter and complete vindication for Donald Trump
as it pertains to the Russia collusion lies. I don't
think there'll be any accountability. Really, that's the problem because remember,
journalists at that time did not view and they were
pretty open about this, stunningly so, they did not view
(17:43):
their role in America as getting truthful information to provide
to society so our democracy could function well. It was
hashtag resistance anti Trump and if they had a lie
to do it, they still sleep soundly at night as
the evil little propagandists that they are. So we'll continue
to follow us, though, because it's outrageous what happened. Make

your dog a little healthier today. Order something I've started

into Telulah, the frencheese food. Think about it. Most of
dog food we buy has to be made for the
likelihood that will be stored on supermarket shelves for a
long time. There's nothing live in that food. Those food
and manufacturers use a sterilization process that kills anything that
(18:26):
would be alive in your pets food that's good for
your pet, like probiotics, enzymes, vitamins, omega oils, healthy microbacteria.
That's why you need rough Greens. It's a healthy supplement

happens in Virginia, well in large parts, determine what happens
in twenty twenty two, twenty twenty four, and arm that
(19:14):
is Vice President Kamala Harris for once. I hope she's right.
I believe we are joined now by Senator Marco Rubio
of Florida. Senator, this is probably one of the times
that you hope Kamala Harris is right too, in the
wake of what we saw happen in Virginia, don't you. Yeah,
I know, I think she is right, and I'm glad
she was suppressing about it. And you know, it's not
(19:37):
that I think one election, it's not that people, for example,
in Florida are going to vote a certain way because
people in Virginia voted a certain way. That's not the point.
I mean. The point is, I think it's pretty indicative
of how far removed from reality the people right now
in charge of the federal government are. If you think
about if you think about what they're thinking this morning,
and I've watched a lot of it, but just hearing
and reading a little bit this morning, there is a
(19:58):
group over there on the left that actually thinks that
the reason why they lost this election is because they
haven't passed, they haven't done more of what they're threatening
or want to do, that in essence of these things
happened that what they want became law. People would benefit
from it and they would be happy, and they would
reward them next November. They still don't get that. People
know exactly what they're trying to do, are against it,
(20:19):
and it's the reason why they're rejecting it. The way
I view it is, for three hundred and sixty four
days a year, the people that run our corporate America,
the people that run the media, the commentators, and a
lot of people in charging government, they tell us what
we can think, they tell us what we can do,
they tell us what we're allowed to say. But there's
one day a year, called election day, where the rest
of us tell them how crazy they are. And that's
what yesterday was about. Hey, Senator Rubio, it's back. I
(20:42):
wanted to know what you think about the calculations that
may be made now more broadly by your set at
Democrat colleagues, but specifically by Mansion and Cinema. After what
they saw last night, it feels as though we've been
in living in an upside down country for a while.
Here where a very narrow margin fifty fifty sent very
(21:03):
narrow margin the House somehow justified in Democrats minds a
massive multi trillion dollar additional spending package that they say
is going to be, you know, a game changer. What
do you think happens now from the perspective of the
Democrat holdouts in the Senate who haven't gone along? I mean,
is there is there a position strengthened. What happens to
the Biden build back Better agenda is what I'm really asking.
So I think I think they point to what happened
(21:25):
yesterday as an example of why they're right and why
this overreach is going to cost them even more seats.
And I think they make that argument now from a
political standpoint, I don't think that changes the true believers,
the squad and the people like that, because because these people,
at the end of the day often come from districts,
end or states where you know they're not going to lose,
and they're pushing this radical agenda. But the broader point
is the one you made at the opposite and that is,
(21:45):
somehow people with a fifty fifty Senate, you know, three
or four vote majority in the House and the slummest
the margins that have Joe Biden living in the White House,
somehow think that was a mandate to radically remake the
country that people put them there to take us this
far left. That's not what he campaigned on. There's a
reason why I didn't campaign on the agenda. You know,
Candidate Biden and President Biden are two different people, and
(22:06):
what Biden campaigned on is not how he's governing. And
you know, but somehow we've they think that they have
this mandate to do these radical things, and people are
going to start pushing back, and they've already started starting yesterday.
Cina Rubia, what time frame do you think we work
through now? As you're sitting up there in the Senate,
there had been talked, certainly of the October thirty first
(22:27):
deadline for infrastructure and also for the Biden budget. Is
this something that happens before Thanksgiving? Now? In your mind
where they give votes, do we push it to the
end of the year. How do you assess the timeline
and how much control the Republicans have I at all
over this? Yeah, I don't know. We don't have very
much insight and or control over because they're planning to
(22:47):
do it without it. So really there's an audience of
two or three that they're focused on in the Senate
and in the House a few more. But this poos
our point right the infrastructure. But I voted against it
for this precise reason, and that is it is a hostage.
It is the hostage it's now being held. And what
they're saying that everybody is if you want this bill
that a bunch of you guys agreed on. I didn't,
but you guys agreed on, then you have to give
(23:08):
us this other thing that only we agree on. And
that's that's the hostage they've taken. Now, whether they decide
to release that hostage, I don't know. It sounds like
they're trying to figure out a way to do that
so that Biden can at least get something done and
claim credit for something or an achievement on something. But
I don't know. M On the broader point, you know,
on the spending the Lee. Let me be clear about reconciliation.
It gives me no comfort that they're going to whittle
(23:30):
it down from two point five or three point five
to one point seven five chilling. It's still a socialist
expansion of the government. If you put the government in
charge of PreK in America, it doesn't matter if you
authorize it for two years or five. You put the
government in charge of PreK in America, and then you're
going to tell preks what they can teach, who they
can hire, and who's allowed to provide it. That's the
power they really care about. It's not the it's not
(23:50):
the money they care about controlling these things. It's the
last piece of education in this country they don't control.
We're speaking to Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, and Senator
my understanding is that the anti regime resistance in Cuba
is planning to become active again. There's there's nationwide protests
(24:11):
that are expected in a couple of weeks. This got
on the radar here in the US a few months back,
where it seemed that there was real pressure, unprecedented pressure
on the regime from inside of Cuba. I want to
know what you could tell us a somebody who understands
this and follows it closely at the foreign relations level
about the fight for freedom from inside of Cuba. And
then of course what is the Biden administration doing on this?
(24:33):
Where is the Biden administration on this issue? Well, on
the second point there, they're doing nothing on it at all.
And in some ways it's good because they haven't reversed
the Trump policies because they make sense. In some ways
it's bad because that the people in charge of the
Cuba portfolio inside of this administration are one the same
ones that were in favor of the Obama deal with
Cuba that was a disaster. But my sense of it
(24:54):
is that they don't give it much priority, and to
the extent they give it attention, it's handed off lower
level people in the administration and at the State Department
that are friendly with the regime, including the lady that
now is in charge of Cuba at the State Department
was in charge of putting together congressional trips to Cuba
to hang out with the regime officials and and so forth.
On the first point, this effort to do this march
(25:17):
on November left inside of Cuba, it's not easy, right,
I mean, there are people that are still locked up
in arbitrary detention, you know, three months after what happened
in July. They're pretty brutal about it. They cracked down
pretty hard. They're pretty good at repression, unfortunately. So we're
encouraging and asking people to do something that I admit
right now is easy to say from the outside, but
it's not easy to do from the inside. But I
think there's this realization by younger Cubans that another generation
(25:40):
is going to be lost to this, that their only
choices are going to be to get out of the
country or live the rest of their life languishing in
the system that doesn't work. It doesn't work socially, culturally, morally,
or economically for them, and I think that's being expressed,
and it continues to put pressure on a regime that's
willing to kill in jail its own people to stay
in power. A Rubio, you can have foreign affairs. I'm
(26:01):
not sure if you've seen Enis Cantor. He's a Boston
Celtic player speaking out against Chinese dictatorships. He said something
interesting yesterday and we talked about this a little bit
on the show. As well, we're just right now scheduled
the world is to be in Beijing for the Winter
Olympics in February. Given all that has happened with COVID,
the lies that China has propagated, should we and other
(26:24):
democratic countries like America be going to China and allowing
them to host the Winter Olympics in February of next year. Well,
let me say two things. First of all, I'm not
generally in favor of boycotting because it hurts the athletes
that have trained hard all these years to be prepared
to go. That said that said, I think we have
to look very carefully at the conditions that are being
placed for people that are going so right now that
(26:46):
they've violated all kinds of Olympic rules. Are not allowing
athletes to come in early and acclimate as you're supposed
to do. We don't know the imagine they're putting severe.
I want to see how the media, the American media,
covers the Winter Olympics, because how can you be in
China and not cover the fact that you know these
abuses are going on there, and they seem like the
Chinese authorities are going to try to constrain and keep
(27:07):
everybody in this locked up area where they can't go outside.
And it'll be interesting to see. What I'm going to
be really be watching is how do the outlets that
are covering the Olympics, and the journalists who are sent
there to cover the Olympics, how do they cover it?
I mean, do they actually are they going to actually
write things and put things out there that are going
to be clear and brutally honest about not just the
conditions and the Olympic villages and the conditions around me,
(27:29):
but the conditions in the country that happen to host them.
Or are we going to allow the sort of paid
infomercial where the Chinese can sort of brag about all
the advances they've made and ignore all the negative stuff
they've done. That's something to very watching. I want to
see how this is covered and whether these outlets and
these sponsors pull their punches because they're interested in access
and ratings and not so much and being journalists or
(27:50):
telling the truth. They're being on the side of what's right.
Senator Mark Rubio of Florida, Sir, appreciate you being with us.
You're on the Client Buck Show. Thanks so much. Yeah,
he thank you me back. Thank you guys. So, you know,
I want to know if just just taking us back
around here because we're gonna come into the latest on
the election is actually an update out of Virginia more
good news for Republicans. I love it. I love all
(28:11):
the good you know, sometimes we have to come in
here and say Fauci is ruining the world today. We
get to do a little victory dance, and so that's
a fun thing. Good news, more good news out of Virginia.
I'll tell you what as we come back. I'm also
wondering if if folks in our audience across the country
are looking at what happened in Virginia and saying, oh,
I'm gonna get more involved at school board meetings. I'm
gonna actually join the I mean, I feel like we're
leaving the dads out here. But the mom revolution revolution
(28:34):
Wing a big difference in terms of how they voted
in twenty twenty. That's right. Well, we'll talk about suburban
female vote in this Virginia election was the big game changer.
We'll come into all that in just a moment. Are
you going to change things up? Are you gonna get
more involved? Eight hundred two eight two to eight eight two.
You see how powerful it can be. Will come that
in a minute. You're spending too much money on gas
and food, and what you need to do is take
(28:55):
care of your family. So don't overpay for cell service.
Switched to pere to Cellular. They're on the exact same
five G network, using the same towers as one of
the big three carriers. But you're paying a heck of
a loss, a heck of a lot less for it.
If you're a Verizon AT and t R T mobile,
you're paying too much each month. And how much can
you save fifty or sixty dollars a month, And if
(29:15):
you're paying for a family plan, you could save as
much as get this eight hundred dollars a year. And
switching is so easy. You can keep your number and
your phone, which is really important. Clay, I know you've
got this hooked up with your family. Your kids have
Pure Talk. They love it. We do, in fact love it.
My son's got an iPhone twelve. He's got unlimited talk
tech six gigs of data on Pure Talks five G
network for just thirty bucks a month. If you want
(29:37):
unlimited data, you can still save a ton of money
each month as well. Claire in New York's perfect example,
she had a new iPhone from Pure Talk, kept her
same phone number, got a new simcard, and saved herself
a bundle every month. That's why Pure Talks a to
operated wireless company as measured by consumer Affairs. Their customer
service is also right here in the good old USA.
(29:58):
They have a thirty day risk free guarantee Pierre Talk does.
So you literally have nothing to lose from your cell
phone right now, Dial pound two fifty and say Pure Talk,
and you'll say fifty percent off your first month and
more on a new phone that's pound two five zero,
say pier Talk. Some restrictions apply. Call for detail, welcome
(30:28):
back in play Travis buck Sexton show. We should update people.
I think Buck on what's going on? You can tell
me if you've seen anything more recent. We still have
an uncertain outcome in New Jersey. I'm a look at
I mean, this thing can't get any closer than it
actually is right now. With eighty eight percent reported of
(30:49):
the vote in New Jersey, according to the New York
Times update, there is and a hundred and twenty votes
separating the Republican and the Democrat with the Republican who
you can pronounce better than me, has a literally a
hundred and twenty vote lead with two point four million
(31:09):
votes cast. Yeah at this, I mean, this is crazy. Yeah,
So it's Ciarella. I think if we were doing an
Italian it would be, but it's Cidarelli is the americanized version. Right, people,
do your vote matters in New Jersey? One hundred and
twenty votes separating the Republican in the Democrat, right, everyone
who listens to us, I believe, or at least he
(31:30):
was listening to that point of the show. Remember, I
think I said yesterday, these are going to be the
racist By the way, I believe young Can won by
a little over two percent what I said he was
gonna win by. And I believe I said, you're gonna
these are gonna be now Grant, I was really just
talking about Virginia. But we're seeing in Virginia, I'm sorry,
in New Jersey two where you can actually you go
out and vote and it's meaningful because the numbers are
(31:52):
so tight. You go, oh wow, you know me, my friends,
my family members altogether. I mean, think one hundred and
twenty vote separation, right, now in a state the sized
millions and millions of people in New Jersey, and this
is a blue stronghold state. Friends, I know Governor Chris
Chris Christy years ago was the governor there, and you
can have blue stronghold states with a Republican governor. But
(32:15):
this just shows you once again, the other guy, Murphy
had all the Democrat you know, all the denoting. Yeah
what Hardly anyone even talked about this going to be
closed because everyone thought that that he was gonna get
blown out. But Sidarelli went around and said, this is
what we gotta do. This is what's going on in
(32:36):
our state. This is what I will do if you
make me the governor. Old school politics, you know. The
other guy was going at this, Uh, Murphy was going
at this with the usual oh, you know, and we're
gonna have a lot of money and celebrity and we're
gonna do all this stuff with the Democrat Party just
carrying you along. No, right now, people want to know,
what are you gonna do for me? Because the Democrat
(32:58):
Party is coming up zeros for people in a lot
of places, and the Biden administrations obviously got Hyden Biden.
Oh and I promised everybody a little additional good news
Democrats in Virginia. Virginia Public Access Project had this tweet
a couple hours ago. They wrote, we have a corrected
result in HD House District eighty five. This is for
(33:19):
the state of Virginia. Instead of a Democratic hold, Republican
Karen Greenhog has a two hundred and two vote lead
over first term Democrat alex Askew. So Republicans are now
on track in Virginia for a fifty two to forty
eight lead in the majority in the House the Virginia
State House. So you may have unified read government in
(33:43):
the state of Virginia, which, as you have pointed out
many times, went for Biden by ten points a year ago,
and they had not won a statewide race buck since
two thousand and nine. The Republicans in Virginia, and they
may effectively be winning four the control of the Legislature.
They've already won the ag the Lieutenant governor, and the governor,
(34:06):
a clean sweep in Virginia. And as as as incredible
as the results are in Virginia, New Jersey is the
bigger story. Cidarelli may not end up winning again. He's
up by about one hundred and twenty votes out of
a two point four million that have been cast. I mean,
it's almost impossible to have a closer election. New Jersey's
(34:26):
the bigger surprise, maybe, but I'm a think Virginia is
the bigger story. Bigger, yes, but the bigger I mean, look,
we are now, well now they just flipped it. Murphy's
up like a little bit. So anyway, this thing is
like super tight. I think Murphy may end up fighting
his way through before all is said and done. But regardless,
(34:46):
no one, like we said, hardly even talked about New Jersey,
but the sign there Biden won by sixteen. We're talking
about a state that's effectively dead even right now. And
Buck we talked about yesterday. We said it Virginia. If
the Republicans win, and they have, it's going to embolden
You asked this question as we were going to break
here a second ago. It's going to embolden a lot
(35:07):
of other states that maybe slanted towards the Democrats to
feel like if they could do it in Virginia, why
can't we do it here, especially in twenty twenty two. Well,
I mean, this is there's so much here and I
do remember because I got into I got into conservative
media right at the origins around McClay. I think we
got in around the same time into media the origins
(35:29):
of the Tea Party movement and how that was about
people at the local level understanding, hey, we can come
together and we actually have political voice. We actually can
turn elections one way or the other if we get
involved and school board meetings and what's being taught to
your kids really matters to people, not just in Virginia,
all over the country. And you heard Younkins saying, let's
(35:51):
not see the public school system to the lunatics. That's
not only have people on the right talking about homeschooling
and you know, taking your kids out of the system entirely.
Let's create more choice, Let's create a better system. Let's
allow parents to pick where their kids are going. Let's
work to make the system better as it stands now
with conservative principles instead of just abandoning it. That's a
(36:11):
message that can resonate, I think across all fifty states,
no doubt at all. I mean, it is such a
fabulous day to wake up and be in favor of
American exceptionalism. You talked about Buck, sometimes we have to
sit down and we have to talk about all the
idiot see a fauci or whatever the latest restrictions are.
I'll be damned if it didn't feel great to sit
down in front of this mic and start off the
(36:33):
show this first hour talking about a huge, massive ass
kicking that we put on Democrats in Virginia. More to come, Clay,
and it's fun. I gotta say, man, Virginia made its
proud even Jersey. Hey, Jersey, you make it as proud Jersey.
