Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
It is Friday. A lot of you probably going to
take off a decent amount of time next week as
Thanksgiving inches closer and closer for all of us. I hope,
(00:20):
wherever you are across this great country or around the
world listening right now to myself and Buck Sexton, that
all of you are having a fantastic early start to
your weekend. We have got a ton of different stories
to hit you with. Let me give you a little
bit of a roadmap. At one o'clock Eastern, Alex Berenson
is going to join us to give us the absolute
(00:41):
latest on COVID. At two eastern, we will talk with
Jim Jordan about the idea of the FBI and the
Department of Justice investigating all those awful domestic terrorists like
yours truly who showed up to speak at all of
our respective school board meetings. The Billback Better Bill has
now passed the House. Kevin McCarthy spent over eight hours
(01:03):
fighting against it all throughout the night. He will soon
be I believe the Speaker of the House But what's
the overall impact of that bill. We will discuss doctor
Fauci seen out in Washington, DC's Georgetown Cafe, Milano Posh
restaurant without a Mask. Portland is refunding police now that
the murder rate has skyrocketed. There COVID madness all over Europe,
(01:27):
and frankly this country Australia has executed now a full
nationwide lockdown. Enis Canter going to war with China. Lebron
James chairman Z and credit to the Women's Tennis Association.
A Chinese woman who won the doubles title in the
French Open has disappeared after accusing a high ranking Communist
(01:52):
Party official of sexual assault. The WPA WTA is demanding
to know what has happened to her. All stories, plus
that Kyle Rittenhouse jury continues deliberations. We will be breaking
all of that down for you. But first, Nancy Pelosi
is exulting after months of delay, they have passed the
(02:16):
Build Back Better bill, and she says, Nancy Pelosi does
it's fully paid for, even though you and I and
everyone listening knows, even based on CBO estimates, that's a
full and complete lie. Bilback Better is fully paid for.
It reduces the deficit and grows the economy and bilback
(02:39):
better will not increase inflation, according to the experts, including
an array of Nobel Prize winning economist and Moodiest also
Buck Nancy Pelosi said that the five hundred and fifty
billion dollars being spent on climate related issues is a
(03:00):
religious thing for her. Listen to this. It's about healthcare
for our children, clean air, clean water. It's about jobs, jobs, jobs,
good paying union jobs, to keep us pre eminent in
green technologies throughout the world. You've heard me say it's
a national security issue as a national security advisors tell
us a competition for habitat and resources withdrought and rising
(03:25):
sea levels, etc. Can cause a conflict, and of course
a moral obligation for us to hand this planet over
to the next generation a responsible way. For me, it's
a religious thing. I believe this is God's creation and
we have moral obligation to be good stewarts. But if
you don't share that view, you must share the view
that we have an obligation to future generation. I kind
(03:49):
of say, how excited I am that Nancy Pelosi is
finally admitting what I've been saying about her and the
crazy Green New Deal Libs for as long as they've
been running aroun which is this is a she says,
a religious belief. I mean, I thought she said the
quiet part out loud. In a sense, this is an
ideologically driven It's not about making you wealthier, more prosperous,
(04:11):
more free, happier. It's about saving the planet. Now, if
you live in a twenty million dollar mansion in the
San Francisco Bay area and you're worth seventy or eighty
million dollars, as Pelosi I believe, is something in that neighborhood.
You don't care about the price of gas, you don't
care about the price of inflation, and you certainly don't
care about what the Green New Deal items that are
(04:35):
in this spending package will do to the cost of
everything around you, to the efficiency of everything around you.
And why, Clay, it's not about what's best for the people,
it's about what's best for the planet. Okay. I mean,
we don't use limousine liberal anymore because no one actually
drives around in limousines unless you want like a throwback
(04:55):
where you have to put the window down yourself. You know,
if you've used the old old school, cranked the prim
the window down. I guess private Jet progressive, this is
the ultimate and five hundred billion dollars going to Green
New Deal nonsense that is in this House version of
the bill. Yeah, And I was reading the Wall Street
Journal editorial this morning, Buck, and they say, you know,
(05:17):
they did the Congressional Budget Office scoring, which proved it
wasn't paid for even under those metrics, But that this
bill because it's sunset provision for people out there who
you know, haven't really been following this closely. The way
Democrats got the cost down to one seven five or
whatever they're trying to claim is by pretending that these
(05:38):
costs basically end in ten years. Less than that for
some of these provisions when you actually count them out ahead.
The Wall Street Journal says that it's going to cost
five trillion dollars. And now the big question is going
to be Buck, is Joe Mansion, maybe Kirsten Cinema, maybe
(05:59):
Hasten up and up in New Hampshire. People who are
under legitimate maybe Kelly out in Arizona, people who are
under legitimate danger of losing reelection in twenty twenty two.
Are they going to stand up to this bill. There's
talk of trying to get it passed officially in the
Senate by Christmas. But I wanted to share this data
(06:20):
with you. Joe Mansion right now in West Virginia has
a sixty percent approval rate. Joe Biden has a thirty
two percent approval rate. Seventy eight percent support Mansion on
the infrastructure bill, but seventy four percent of West Virginians
say Mansion should oppose the president's build back better plans.
(06:44):
So is Mansion going to bend to the will of
the Democrats or is he going to be thinking about
his future potential reelection in twenty twenty four in West
Virginia and do what the vast majority of his constituency
wants him to do. The ironic part is that he
may by stripping out some of the most egregious as
(07:05):
part of the reconciling of the bills in the two House. Right,
so where the two parts of Congress. The House has
passed this thing very narrow by the way, two twenty
to two hundred and thirteen. So yeah, you know, you
should definitely transform the American economy and do something that
nobody on the right think should be done right now,
and a lot of people on the left even things
shouldn't be done when you have a whole seven seat
(07:28):
majority in the House and not even a one seat
majority in the Senate. That seems like a logical place
to decide to change the American economy when way of
life with it. But Clay, I have to say, I
think that the Senate version of this is going to
strip out some so we don't know how much. Some
of it that will then be claimed is making it
(07:49):
moderate in some way, and maybe Mansion will then go
along with it, and in doing so, by saving the
Democrats from some of the most excessive portions of it,
I think he'll be doing them a favor because people
are going to start to see as this thing rolls
out a no you know who's read it. Not even
the people are voting for it have read it. I mean,
(08:10):
you look at some of the Wall Street Journal, some
of these analyzes. They're doing budgetary analysis of it. But
what does it really mean and what will it mean
for you guess that everybody inflation, which if it keeps
going up, will destroy the Biden presidency from a political perspective.
They'll have nothing left. They'll get wiped out in the
mid terms. He won't if inflation is really bad, Biden
(08:32):
won't even run for reelection. That actually that actually I
feel very confident in well, I'm not sure that well.
By the way, Biden is also getting a colonoscopy today,
and Kamala Harris is in charge for some small period
of time. But I can't imagine Kamala being the person
who's running. I simultaneously can't imagine Democrats, who accuse everybody
(08:56):
of being racist and sexist not nominating her given the
fact that she's the VP. But really, Buck, I believe
it's on December ninth, the next reading of inflation comes out,
and there's all these economists. You know, economists are pretty
worthless in many ways, right Buck. They're good at telling
you why something happened after it happened. But all of
(09:18):
them are expressing shock, many of them over the fact
that inflation has skyrocketed like it has, and it doesn't
seem like it's gonna go away anytime soon. So I
think what's going to happen is we're gonna get that
reading in early December, and it's going to give Mansion
political cover to say we're not going to do anything
in the early part of this year. We'll take it
(09:39):
into twenty twenty two. It turns into almost a continuation
of the Mansion effect after that election in Virginia where
Glenn Unkin won. I can assure everybody out there that,
if you didn't already know, Mansion after that whole thing
went down, was in a much strengthened position to push
back against the more left wing members of the Democrat
(10:00):
Party who wanted him to go along with it. I
just think it's interesting play that Pelosi. Look, she gets
she gets the whip done, she pulls people together for
votes on very progressive, massive spending packages, but she doesn't
really you know, it's interesting she does this, and if
you look at history, I mean, look what happened last
time Pelosi went along with the huge spending package in
(10:22):
the Obama administration. No less, heading into those mid terms
felt like a very different play. She's gonna retire, this
is her this is her swan song. I feel like
this is the thing that she's leaving right. It would
be stunning if she decides not to retire. To me,
I feel like they just never want to give it up,
you know, they the people that are at the levers
of power. This is something that you see play out
(10:44):
time and again. Look at Joe Biden. Joe Biden, is
he gonna be seventy nine tomorrow? I think I think
that's right, seventy nine years old tomorrow. I mean, how
many of you have a seventy nine year old relative that,
honestly you would want to put in now. You may
want that relative in charge of the country more than
Joe Biden or pretty much all of you have that,
But how many of you would say, you know what
the best person for the job is, my seventy nine
(11:05):
year old relative. That person should be president of the
United States right now. And then when you have Kamala
Harris stepping in, even just for it's ceremonial, right, nothing's
going to happen today, but you could tell everyone goes.
I hope North Korea doesn't invade. You know, there's a
little bit of a concern here that if she had
to make a real decision, this is not who you
would would want to be to be doing that. So
(11:26):
I think there's a legitimate concern there. Pelosi build back better.
I think that clay inflation will be there undoing. We
will have to see. We'll come back with more of
that in a moment. Also, it is open line Friday,
eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. So
what do you think about all Clay, do we have
like a special question we want to post everybody there
just want to let it, let it rip, whatever, whatever's
(11:48):
on the minds of the folks, whatever we're talking about.
We got so many different topics out there. I feel
like this rittenhouse jury entering into a fourth day of
deliberation is pretty crazy. That's stunning. And also, Buck, I wonder,
as you run into the weekend, if they were to
give a verdict now, is it actually worse right, because
then you have all these people who don't have jobs
(12:10):
they have with all these people who are riding don't
have jobs period, but they have even more free time
headed into the weekend. It feels like that's the worst
time for a verdict to come down. It would be sensible.
I've only been to Wisconsin recently that one time, but
I do know enough about it to know that you
kind of want that Wisconsin weather where you've got bicycles
forming from your nose. Yes, and you want that, and
you want a verdict at like ten am on a Monday,
(12:32):
when it's thirty degrees outside. That's that's something that you
So I don't know if that's what they're going to
get or not. We'll see. With all that's happening at
home and in the world, isn't it nice you can
have control of the simple things that are happening at
your home when you turn your attention to them, Simple
things like making sure your pets are healthy and happy.
One sure way to do that is by feeding your
dog healthier meals. It doesn't mean you have to start
(12:54):
going to the butcher or buying super expensive food and
the specialty pet stores. You can add a healthy supplement
to the kibble dog food that you're likely using, and
it makes all the difference. That's why so many dog
lovers are starting to use rough greens, the meal supplement
for dogs roughest spelled just like you'd imagine are uf.
It's not dog food. It's a healthy supplement you put
into your dog's food with all the live nutrients necessary
(13:17):
for superior dog health, like vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, omega oils.
Rough greens will make your dog healthier by making your
dogs food better. The folks at rough Greens are so
confident your dog is gonna love it. They have a
special deal for you, gonna Roughgreens dot com slash eib
and they're gonna give you the first bag free. All
you pay is shipping. That's rough Greens dot Com slash eib.
(13:41):
Rough Greens dot Com slash eib. Why are things going
poorly for the economy for America right now? And important question?
Welcome back to clay An Buck Show. I think you
try to answer that question every day different ways, ad
(14:02):
a little detail, a little bit of fact, a little
bit of analysis. But we're not the only ones. I
think things aren't going very well right now. That's obvious
from the polling. But even some Democrats are recognizing that
the response to oh my gosh, inflations getting really bad
should not be let's spend more money in a non
(14:24):
emergency spending bill than at any time since the nineteen sixties,
since the creation effectively of the American welfare state. Let's
not do that right now. That's not going to help.
Forget about whether that's the country we want to live in,
and whether we should become a European style welfare state,
and all the rest. I mean what I don't mean
forget about it. I mean just put it aside for
(14:45):
a second. What does it do to the economic challenges
that we see right now? And here's my buddy, Steve Rattner,
Steve not the other guy who wrote that op air
that I mentioned you earlier in the week, who's going
around This is a guy he's trying to raise the
alarm for Democrats by saying what you're doing is really bad. Now,
(15:06):
this is a guy who's a lib but he understands money.
He understands a monetary policy. He was a private equity guy,
and unlike economists, he actually had to be right or
else he goes broke right. So he's a savvy, savvy
guy about money. Here's what he says about why Biden
is unpopular. I think Afghanistan was a disaster. It made
(15:28):
well pass, but there's nobody in America pretty much who
thinks was handled well. The border is another huge problem
that the public perceives to be a result of Biden
encouraging people with this idea that it was going to
be a different attitude than Trump and people should come
and try to cross the border. That's another huge problem.
He's basically cast himself as a transformational president, one who's
(15:52):
going to be LBJ and FDR are put together. But
the problem is he didn't really have a mandate to
do that. LBJ when he was president had one hundred
and sixty nine seat majority in the House and he
had sixty nine sentence seats since Democrats, so he actually
had a mandated, absolutely correct analysis from an Obama advisor everybody.
(16:13):
I think one of the things that Obama people are
seeing is one they don't trust the competency of Biden.
But there was so much orange man bad associated with Trump,
which all of us out there listening right now know
how unfair it was. But now that Biden is in charge,
there seems to be a rationality in some parts of
(16:36):
the Democratic Party returning. That's an imminently reasonable, rational analysis
of the Joe Biden presidency. That's also devastating because it's
coming from a rational member of the Obama administration. And
I think the Democratic Party has gone so insane that
you're starting to see people push back now that Trump
(16:58):
is out of office, and that's why I think ultimately
this civil war in the Democratic Party is going to
get exposed in twenty twenty two, and also in twenty
twenty four. I think that's absolutely right. I think that
they've got a huge problem here because they have the
left wing base that they need to show us, but
also for donations and enthusiasm and energy and elections. They
(17:20):
think this is their time. I think that there are
some of the Democrat Party who realize the more of
the American people figure out the Green New Deal, madness,
the open border's agenda, these are not popular ideas with
most of America. That's why the Biden administration pretends they
don't want illegal immigration. That's why they pretend they don't
want to make guy A gas prices skyrocket, right to
(17:44):
make electricity companies based on cole Go bankrupt. They do
want that, but they won't be honest about it. And
as people see what's really going on, I think they're
gonna revolt. If we've learned anything since twenty twenty, my friends,
you know, a powerful immune system is essential gotta stay
healthy these days. That's why I've been taking Texas Superfood,
(18:05):
the original superfood. With fifty five vine ripen fruits and vegetables,

bacteria you come into contact with. That's why you eat
Texas Superfood. It boosts your immune system better than anything

(18:57):
back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of
you hanging out with us as we rolled through a
Friday edition of the program. It's going to be joined
by Alex Berenson, the most dangerous man on Twitter potentially.
Although Twitter is losing its mind over what they are banning.
You knew what was going to get bad, it continues
to get worse. He'll join us at one Eastern. Then
(19:17):
at two Eastern we're gonna be joined by Jim Jordan
congressman to talk about what he and his staff have
uncovered surrounding the FBI and the DJ looking into parents
domestic terrorists as they were called, who are speaking out
at school boards, but the COVID madness continues to spread.
(19:38):
Earlier in the show, I may have said Australia was
going into full nationwide lockdown. They Australia did that for
over a year. But in Europe, Austria is going into
full nationwide lockdown. If I misspoke, there Austria, and there
are many other countries that are also implementing new policies.
We got doctor Fauci out at Cafe Milano Buck not
(20:01):
surprisingly in Georgetown, not wearing a mask, very fancy Cafe Milano.
And if you look, they continue to move the goalposts
here on how things get back to normal, and this
is doctor Ashish Jaw. They have now moved on from
if you remember Buck, wasn't very long ago they said, hey,
(20:23):
you get the vaccine, don't have to wear masks. Everything's
going to be back to normal. These vaccines work perfectly.
Now they've moved on to if you just get the booster,
everything will be fine. They keep moving the goalpost and
we keep having surging caseloads and hospitalizations. Let's play here,
(20:43):
cut thirteen. All we need is the boosters and things
will get back to normal. I think it is going
to make an enormous difference. What the data is now
really clear is that a third shot at booster shot
six months after your second shot of madernaur finder dramatically
reduces your risk of getting infected and spreading the virus.
So if all eligible Americans, if all adult Americans six
(21:04):
months I've got the booster, I think you would dramatically
lower the numbers of infections and spread in our country.
Here's what should be said by every person who claims
to be a journalist or a person who is has
a platform and can inform the public, and claims at
least that that is there a reason for doing what
they do. Every time we're told you should get a
(21:26):
booster shot, which we're remember we've been saying I think
since July, maybe August. On this show, they're going to
say boosters for everyone, and it's going to go from
suggested to highly suggested to mandatory. In some places. It
won't be mandatory in Florida won't be MAD, but but
in New York and in California they're gonna make it.
And even you mentioned the NBA Clay right, you have
(21:48):
to go through the unvaccinated protocols. You're not banned, but
unvaccinated protocols. If you don't get the booster, if you
have J and J, isn't that correct? Right? That's right?
And also, by the way, in the NFL buck they
have done away with any distinction now between vaccinated and
unvaccinated players because so many players are testing positive. For
Thanksgiving week, everybody has to wear masks and they're testing
(22:11):
everyone twice a day. So here's what should be asked
every time, I mean, every time someone says to you
or you hear someone and there's a moment for a
Q and a IN or an exchange, is this our
last booster? I want that that should be the question
that is shouted from And for some people, I know,
you're like, fuck, I'm not even getting a shot in
the first place. I know. But now we see beyond
(22:33):
any reasonable doubt that what we've been warning about as
essentially COVID forever. The processes we've been put through the
creation of QR codes of vaccine passports and vaccine mandates,
and how this is for a virus that rapidly mutates,
that has animal reservoirs that allow for it. Even if
(22:54):
we eradicated it from all humanity in America, it would
still exist in other countries around the world, and even
if you limited it from them, the virus has animal reservoirs.
There was a story recently about how it's really common
in deer. For example, a lot of deer have COVID,
so this means they we've got to vaccinate all the deer.
We are exactly We're gonna be living with COVID forever.
(23:14):
And instead of living in fear, we should learn to
live with the virus instead of thinking if I just
mask a little harder and listen to Fauci, accept what
he's at Kathy Milano with some catchioe peppe because that
stops the droplets. But I don't want to live in
fear anywhere. Everyone just needs to realize those at high risk,
(23:35):
just like in flu. My parents have been getting the
flu shot for years, my dad particularly, but my parents
have been getting the flu shot because the flu is
pretty dangerous. When you're in your sixties, seventies, eighties, right, Well,
you get the booster. No, yeah, I mean you got
unless someone's gonna tell me they're gonna like lock me
in my home, fired me from my job, and you know,
you know, export me to get my home. No, I'm
(23:57):
not getting the boost because because I think to your point,
there is a massive number of people that said, hey,
I'll do my part. I'll go get the vaccine. There
is not going to be that many people, I think,
who are willing to go get this poosh, especially in
their thirties, their forties, their fifties, who are otherwise healthy.
Think about this, And I said this so long. I'm somebody.
I've gotten so many vaccinations because of my time in
(24:19):
the CIA, getting sent to Africa, in the Middle East
and South Asia and places where you're getting vaccinations for things.
And I was just to go into the medical office
there and say like do I really need this? They're like, oh, yeah,
so it wasn't. They're like, you know, if you don't
want to get whatever this is, you don't want to
get a yellow fever or African sleeping sickness, or you know,
at any number of these different river blindness, whatever, all
(24:40):
these different disease. I can't remember what they're called so
I wasn't super opposed as a person from the beginning
to first of all, people at risk should get it,
and me myself, I didn't. I don't really care all
that much because I'm a pincushion for vaccinations. I hate
the mandates, right. A lot of people, a lot of
people who were saying, all right, fine, if it's going
(25:01):
to stop the spread, if it's going to make the
elderly safer, if it means I can't get it or
give it, you know, I'm not worried about myself, but
I'll do it to be a good guy for everybody else, which,
by the way, was part of the push from the
fact push it was it was you know, this is
about the community. It's not about you. Now we know
(25:23):
they were wrong. You can get it and spread it,
and it's happening in large numbers now, by the way,
the vaccines fail to stop that. The vaccines have failed,
which is, by the way, what everybody was getting banned
for saying, So we start and now they're just telling you,
oh no, but just just just the shot just two
(25:44):
weeks is now just this booster And I think enough
people they're finally saying no, blanking way. I'm done. I'm
not I'm not going to be protecting the community by
getting the equivalent the flu shot every six months for
the rest of my life. I'm sorry, not happening. And
(26:06):
I think that's where we are. And I would just
point out, and I keep saying it on the show,
we don't call the flu shot a flu vaccine. We
call it a flu shot because oftentimes you're guessing as
to whether or not you're hitting the right strain. It
has limited efficacy, and a huge percentage of people every
(26:27):
year choose not to get the flu shot. And we
have now created a COVID shot that is effectively going
to be a therapeutic in many ways like the flu shot.
And there are a lot of people buck who got
this vaccine, who listened to the government, who believed it
was going to end COVID because that's what they told
us it was going to do. And now the data
is quite clear that thought trying and just say, there
(26:47):
were a lot of people who thought they were really smart,
really smart, who were comparing this to the MMR vaccinations
for your children. Shut up, you have to get that
for your kids. Shut up. It's the same thing those people,
every single one of them who said it all over
the country on media or maybe just to you know,
some folks out there over lunch one day. Whatever they
(27:09):
were all wrong. Yes, is non mmr. It is not
a similar circumstance, different risk parameters, different protection parameters, different
number of shots you have to get that same thing
at all. No, it's percent true. And that's why the
idea of vaccine mandates for COVID for kids strikes so
(27:30):
many parents like me and many of you listening right now,
right in our heart, because this cannot be allowed to happen.
Born from the tragedy of nine eleven, the Tune of
the Towers Foundation has been honoring America's heroes ever since.
To mark twenty years since nine eleven, the Foundation's chairman
and CEO, Frank Siller, connected where America was attacked on
(27:51):
foot from the Pentagon to Shanksville to downtown Manhattan when
he retraced his brother's footsteps. Thanks to your support, Towers
of Light returned to the Pentagon and Shanksville Memorials, and
for the first time, our country recognized the people we
lost to nine to eleven related illness through the foundation's
name reading ceremony, and in another first, those lost in
the War on Terror had their names read aloud. That
(28:14):
ceremony is now the newest Tunnel to Towers annual tradition. Buck,
how can you help everybody out there to ensure the
Tunnel to Towers continues to have their voice honor our

Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We've got demand that
big Tech wants to ban. That could have actually been
the title of his book. The real title is Pandemia.
(28:57):
But Alex Barrenson will be with us short talking about
COVID's big problem. Folks, it's gonna get worse. Look at
what's going on Europe. Austria not to be confused with
Australia in a lockdown situation nationwide. We've also got Germany
having a really rough time. We've got a bunch of
places that are having really bad COVID numbers. And then
(29:20):
here they don't really have answers for Vermont highest COVID
cases remember ever, including a winter cycle where there were
no vaccines, and yet they have more COVID cases and
more hospitalizations. Now that seems quite Oh it's the unvaccinated.
We'll deal with that. We'll talk to Alex Parenson about that. First.
You did want to take some of your calls here.
(29:41):
Remember lines are open. It is open line Friday, eight
hundred two eight two two eight eight two. Dory in Chesapeake, Virginia, Hey, Dorry, Hi, Hi,
Oh my gosh, Okay, I just want to say I
love listening to your show. I've been listening Truss Lamba
(30:01):
ever since i was nine years old, and I'm a
big stand of this show. And well we appreciate that.
How old are you doing now, Dorry? That's great, Thank
you so much. I'm sixty. I'm about your in seventeen. Well,
thank you so much for listening, and we appreciate that
you like the show and that you think we're doing
rush proud here, So thank you so much, Dorry. David
in yet yad Kintonville. Have you heard of Ville? I
(30:24):
have not, yead Kintonville, North Carolina, what's up, David, Not
a whole lot, just real quickly. I have a pH
d and safety engineering, and y'all have been talking about
the mask, and when I teach people about the mask,
I try to explain it this way. We have to
know the size of the particulant that we're trying to
prevent from being inhaled, and so when we use certain mask,
(30:46):
it's like building a chain link fence and thrown a
cup of sand out at it and trying to prevent
the sand from entering it. Or if we use a
batter mask, we it's like using chicken wire and doing
the same thing. And if we're trying to main haying
a smaller particulate from getting into our lungs, then it's
like using the house screen. Well where at where we're
(31:06):
at right now is the mask that most everybody's wearing
is the chain line fence that's doing absolutely nothing except
holding some of the particulants in between the mask and
their own breathing, where they're inhaling the same potential contaminants
over and over again. I mean, thank you for that.
And by the way, this ties in with I want
(31:27):
to give Tom Elliott does really good work and encourage
you guys to following. Maybe you're going to be allowed
to great yeah, yeah, yeah, And he tweeted this, which
got him blocked on Twitter. We talked earlier this week,
Buck about how you said something about masks. I said
something about masks. Twitter wouldn't allow our opinions to be shared.
(31:47):
They're kind of coming after us. And you said, hey,
we want somebody from Twitter to come on the show
and try to explain. Here's what Tom Elliott tweeted, realities.
COVID vaccines don't inoculate you against the virus. They don't
stop you from spreading it. They can help mitigate worse outcomes.
They can also induce adverse events. There's no reason the
(32:11):
federal government should determine what is ultimately a private medical decision.
They shut down his Twitter account for that tweet. Buck.
They don't want there to be any remotely controversial about
because this is where we are right now, folks. We're
heading into a winter season in America where you're about
to see that in and thank you David from North
(32:33):
Carolina for callin. Thank you for the call. We are
about to see really the last eradication for anyone who's
paying attention to being honest, the eradication of any credibility
that the Fauciites have here in telling you. Now we know.
Maybe we didn't know before, but this time we know.
(32:56):
They keep doing it, and it keeps being untrue. Well
when it comes to the vaccines, and when it comes
to vaccine mandates, what we're seeing is their claim of
the level of protection, the duration of protection, the stopping
of spread, the prevention of hospitalization, all of that was untrue.
(33:18):
A portion of what they said now has been shown
to be somewhat accurate in a very limited capacity. But
that's not what they were telling us in the beginning.
That's not what they were telling us all summer. And
they pushed policy on their faulty understanding of facts in
reality once again. And this is why they're going to
get very testy about mask Clay, because you know it's
(33:39):
going to happen more and more masking, more and more masking,
and cases are going to go up, up, bend up.
But the mask works so well, mask works so well
that the Fauciites believe, the way you know they work
is that they never work. Therefore you must wear them more.
This is lunacy. I'm not even sure who they're gonna
blame now. I think the pivot's going to be Oh,
(34:00):
people aren't getting boosted enough. I think I'm actually curious
to ask Alex Berenson what he thinks, because keep in mind,
there's always someone they can blame for why their plan
doesn't work. What did they tell us as these cases
started to tick up during the summer, buck, Oh, this
is because some people are choosing not to be vaccinated.
Do you remember that Biden's speech where I mean it
(34:22):
sounded like from his tone, you know it's being angry
old then Biden, like I said, Biden, this whole thing
about the you know, the big you know, the grinning,
nice guy down the Biden's a jerk, always has been.
People actually know him will tell yeah, he's a glad
handing politician. He's a jerk. But he gave a speech
that made it sound like he was about to expel
the unvaccinated from America for being such a lethal risk
(34:45):
to the people around them. Well, now, how does that
look in retrospect? How does that jackass look? Now? They don't? Well, remember,
even dumber than blaming the unvaccinated was when he took
off as he said, Hey, if everybody just wears masks
for one hundred days, COVID go away. And to me,
there's always someone they're looking to blame. I don't think
(35:06):
they can blame the unvaccinated now because the unvaccinated has
become such a small minority of the overall population. Buck
ninety nine percent of people sixty five and older. Think
about this for a minute. Ninety nine percent of them
have had at least one shot. So you're gonna see.
I believe what's going to happen is we're gonna have
a pivot to this is because people aren't getting their
(35:28):
booster shots. They're going to start to shame people who
are not getting their booster shots. And I think there's
a lot of people out there that are frankly not
going to go down that path because they're gonna say,
I listened to you when you told me that if
I got the vaccine, COVID would go away. That's what
they told us, didn't happen, And now you're gonna tell
me that I have to get a booster or I'm
(35:50):
an awful person, or I'm not considered to be fully vaccinated.
And now you're going to tell me that kids have
to and everything else. Buck, this is going to be
an absolutely unmitigated disaster this winter. I've got something to
share with folks here from our friends at the New
York Post Carol Markowitz. So attributing it to Carol Markowitz
(36:11):
on Twitter, got a reliable tip that the Rittenhouse verdict
is in and will be announced in the next hour
from the New York Post Carol Markowitz. So we may
be with you here on air folks with that announcement
as it happens. We may be in the next hour.
That is what the tip says. We've also got Alex
(36:32):
Barrenson coming up next here to talk about the real
COVID numbers, what the heck is going on. Clay and
I are going to make it all make sense, because
that's how we roll here, the Clay and Buck Show.
You're listening to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton fund the
EIB Network
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
It is Friday. A lot of you probably going to
take off a decent amount of time next week as
Thanksgiving inches closer and closer for all of us. I hope,
(00:20):
wherever you are across this great country or around the
world listening right now to myself and Buck Sexton, that
all of you are having a fantastic early start to
your weekend. We have got a ton of different stories
to hit you with. Let me give you a little
bit of a roadmap. At one o'clock Eastern, Alex Berenson
is going to join us to give us the absolute
(00:41):
latest on COVID. At two eastern, we will talk with
Jim Jordan about the idea of the FBI and the
Department of Justice investigating all those awful domestic terrorists like
yours truly who showed up to speak at all of
our respective school board meetings. The Billback Better Bill has
now passed the House. Kevin McCarthy spent over eight hours
(01:03):
fighting against it all throughout the night. He will soon
be I believe the Speaker of the House But what's
the overall impact of that bill. We will discuss doctor
Fauci seen out in Washington, DC's Georgetown Cafe, Milano Posh
restaurant without a Mask. Portland is refunding police now that
the murder rate has skyrocketed. There COVID madness all over Europe,
(01:27):
and frankly this country Australia has executed now a full
nationwide lockdown. Enis Canter going to war with China. Lebron
James chairman Z and credit to the Women's Tennis Association.
A Chinese woman who won the doubles title in the
French Open has disappeared after accusing a high ranking Communist
(01:52):
Party official of sexual assault. The WPA WTA is demanding
to know what has happened to her. All stories, plus
that Kyle Rittenhouse jury continues deliberations. We will be breaking
all of that down for you. But first, Nancy Pelosi
is exulting after months of delay, they have passed the
(02:16):
Build Back Better bill, and she says, Nancy Pelosi does
it's fully paid for, even though you and I and
everyone listening knows, even based on CBO estimates, that's a
full and complete lie. Bilback Better is fully paid for.
It reduces the deficit and grows the economy and bilback
(02:39):
better will not increase inflation, according to the experts, including
an array of Nobel Prize winning economist and Moodiest also
Buck Nancy Pelosi said that the five hundred and fifty
billion dollars being spent on climate related issues is a
(03:00):
religious thing for her. Listen to this. It's about healthcare
for our children, clean air, clean water. It's about jobs, jobs, jobs,
good paying union jobs, to keep us pre eminent in
green technologies throughout the world. You've heard me say it's
a national security issue as a national security advisors tell
us a competition for habitat and resources withdrought and rising
(03:25):
sea levels, etc. Can cause a conflict, and of course
a moral obligation for us to hand this planet over
to the next generation a responsible way. For me, it's
a religious thing. I believe this is God's creation and
we have moral obligation to be good stewarts. But if
you don't share that view, you must share the view
that we have an obligation to future generation. I kind
(03:49):
of say, how excited I am that Nancy Pelosi is
finally admitting what I've been saying about her and the
crazy Green New Deal Libs for as long as they've
been running aroun which is this is a she says,
a religious belief. I mean, I thought she said the
quiet part out loud. In a sense, this is an
ideologically driven It's not about making you wealthier, more prosperous,
(04:11):
more free, happier. It's about saving the planet. Now, if
you live in a twenty million dollar mansion in the
San Francisco Bay area and you're worth seventy or eighty
million dollars, as Pelosi I believe, is something in that neighborhood.
You don't care about the price of gas, you don't
care about the price of inflation, and you certainly don't
care about what the Green New Deal items that are
(04:35):
in this spending package will do to the cost of
everything around you, to the efficiency of everything around you.
And why, Clay, it's not about what's best for the people,
it's about what's best for the planet. Okay. I mean,
we don't use limousine liberal anymore because no one actually
drives around in limousines unless you want like a throwback
(04:55):
where you have to put the window down yourself. You know,
if you've used the old old school, cranked the prim
the window down. I guess private Jet progressive, this is
the ultimate and five hundred billion dollars going to Green
New Deal nonsense that is in this House version of
the bill. Yeah, And I was reading the Wall Street
Journal editorial this morning, Buck, and they say, you know,
(05:17):
they did the Congressional Budget Office scoring, which proved it
wasn't paid for even under those metrics, But that this
bill because it's sunset provision for people out there who
you know, haven't really been following this closely. The way
Democrats got the cost down to one seven five or
whatever they're trying to claim is by pretending that these
(05:38):
costs basically end in ten years. Less than that for
some of these provisions when you actually count them out ahead.
The Wall Street Journal says that it's going to cost
five trillion dollars. And now the big question is going
to be Buck, is Joe Mansion, maybe Kirsten Cinema, maybe
(05:59):
Hasten up and up in New Hampshire. People who are
under legitimate maybe Kelly out in Arizona, people who are
under legitimate danger of losing reelection in twenty twenty two.
Are they going to stand up to this bill. There's
talk of trying to get it passed officially in the
Senate by Christmas. But I wanted to share this data
(06:20):
with you. Joe Mansion right now in West Virginia has
a sixty percent approval rate. Joe Biden has a thirty
two percent approval rate. Seventy eight percent support Mansion on
the infrastructure bill, but seventy four percent of West Virginians
say Mansion should oppose the president's build back better plans.
(06:44):
So is Mansion going to bend to the will of
the Democrats or is he going to be thinking about
his future potential reelection in twenty twenty four in West
Virginia and do what the vast majority of his constituency
wants him to do. The ironic part is that he
may by stripping out some of the most egregious as
(07:05):
part of the reconciling of the bills in the two House. Right,
so where the two parts of Congress. The House has
passed this thing very narrow by the way, two twenty
to two hundred and thirteen. So yeah, you know, you
should definitely transform the American economy and do something that
nobody on the right think should be done right now,
and a lot of people on the left even things
shouldn't be done when you have a whole seven seat
(07:28):
majority in the House and not even a one seat
majority in the Senate. That seems like a logical place
to decide to change the American economy when way of
life with it. But Clay, I have to say, I
think that the Senate version of this is going to
strip out some so we don't know how much. Some
of it that will then be claimed is making it
(07:49):
moderate in some way, and maybe Mansion will then go
along with it, and in doing so, by saving the
Democrats from some of the most excessive portions of it,
I think he'll be doing them a favor because people
are going to start to see as this thing rolls
out a no you know who's read it. Not even
the people are voting for it have read it. I mean,
(08:10):
you look at some of the Wall Street Journal, some
of these analyzes. They're doing budgetary analysis of it. But
what does it really mean and what will it mean
for you guess that everybody inflation, which if it keeps
going up, will destroy the Biden presidency from a political perspective.
They'll have nothing left. They'll get wiped out in the
mid terms. He won't if inflation is really bad, Biden
(08:32):
won't even run for reelection. That actually that actually I
feel very confident in well, I'm not sure that well.
By the way, Biden is also getting a colonoscopy today,
and Kamala Harris is in charge for some small period
of time. But I can't imagine Kamala being the person
who's running. I simultaneously can't imagine Democrats, who accuse everybody
(08:56):
of being racist and sexist not nominating her given the
fact that she's the VP. But really, Buck, I believe
it's on December ninth, the next reading of inflation comes out,
and there's all these economists. You know, economists are pretty
worthless in many ways, right Buck. They're good at telling
you why something happened after it happened. But all of
(09:18):
them are expressing shock, many of them over the fact
that inflation has skyrocketed like it has, and it doesn't
seem like it's gonna go away anytime soon. So I
think what's going to happen is we're gonna get that
reading in early December, and it's going to give Mansion
political cover to say we're not going to do anything
in the early part of this year. We'll take it
(09:39):
into twenty twenty two. It turns into almost a continuation
of the Mansion effect after that election in Virginia where
Glenn Unkin won. I can assure everybody out there that,
if you didn't already know, Mansion after that whole thing
went down, was in a much strengthened position to push
back against the more left wing members of the Democrat
(10:00):
Party who wanted him to go along with it. I
just think it's interesting play that Pelosi. Look, she gets
she gets the whip done, she pulls people together for
votes on very progressive, massive spending packages, but she doesn't
really you know, it's interesting she does this, and if
you look at history, I mean, look what happened last
time Pelosi went along with the huge spending package in
(10:22):
the Obama administration. No less, heading into those mid terms
felt like a very different play. She's gonna retire, this
is her this is her swan song. I feel like
this is the thing that she's leaving right. It would
be stunning if she decides not to retire. To me,
I feel like they just never want to give it up,
you know, they the people that are at the levers
of power. This is something that you see play out
(10:44):
time and again. Look at Joe Biden. Joe Biden, is
he gonna be seventy nine tomorrow? I think I think
that's right, seventy nine years old tomorrow. I mean, how
many of you have a seventy nine year old relative that,
honestly you would want to put in now. You may
want that relative in charge of the country more than
Joe Biden or pretty much all of you have that,
But how many of you would say, you know what
the best person for the job is, my seventy nine
(11:05):
year old relative. That person should be president of the
United States right now. And then when you have Kamala
Harris stepping in, even just for it's ceremonial, right, nothing's
going to happen today, but you could tell everyone goes.
I hope North Korea doesn't invade. You know, there's a
little bit of a concern here that if she had
to make a real decision, this is not who you
would would want to be to be doing that. So
(11:26):
I think there's a legitimate concern there. Pelosi build back better.
I think that clay inflation will be there undoing. We
will have to see. We'll come back with more of
that in a moment. Also, it is open line Friday,
eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. So
what do you think about all Clay, do we have
like a special question we want to post everybody there
just want to let it, let it rip, whatever, whatever's
(11:48):
on the minds of the folks, whatever we're talking about.
We got so many different topics out there. I feel
like this rittenhouse jury entering into a fourth day of
deliberation is pretty crazy. That's stunning. And also, Buck, I wonder,
as you run into the weekend, if they were to
give a verdict now, is it actually worse right, because
then you have all these people who don't have jobs
(12:10):
they have with all these people who are riding don't
have jobs period, but they have even more free time
headed into the weekend. It feels like that's the worst
time for a verdict to come down. It would be sensible.
I've only been to Wisconsin recently that one time, but
I do know enough about it to know that you
kind of want that Wisconsin weather where you've got bicycles
forming from your nose. Yes, and you want that, and
you want a verdict at like ten am on a Monday,
(12:32):
when it's thirty degrees outside. That's that's something that you
So I don't know if that's what they're going to
get or not. We'll see. With all that's happening at
home and in the world, isn't it nice you can
have control of the simple things that are happening at
your home when you turn your attention to them, Simple
things like making sure your pets are healthy and happy.
One sure way to do that is by feeding your
dog healthier meals. It doesn't mean you have to start
(12:54):
going to the butcher or buying super expensive food and
the specialty pet stores. You can add a healthy supplement
to the kibble dog food that you're likely using, and
it makes all the difference. That's why so many dog
lovers are starting to use rough greens, the meal supplement
for dogs roughest spelled just like you'd imagine are uf.
It's not dog food. It's a healthy supplement you put
into your dog's food with all the live nutrients necessary
(13:17):
for superior dog health, like vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, omega oils.
Rough greens will make your dog healthier by making your
dogs food better. The folks at rough Greens are so
confident your dog is gonna love it. They have a
special deal for you, gonna Roughgreens dot com slash eib
and they're gonna give you the first bag free. All
you pay is shipping. That's rough Greens dot Com slash eib.
(13:41):
Rough Greens dot Com slash eib. Why are things going
poorly for the economy for America right now? And important question?
Welcome back to clay An Buck Show. I think you
try to answer that question every day different ways, ad
(14:02):
a little detail, a little bit of fact, a little
bit of analysis. But we're not the only ones. I
think things aren't going very well right now. That's obvious
from the polling. But even some Democrats are recognizing that
the response to oh my gosh, inflations getting really bad
should not be let's spend more money in a non
(14:24):
emergency spending bill than at any time since the nineteen sixties,
since the creation effectively of the American welfare state. Let's
not do that right now. That's not going to help.
Forget about whether that's the country we want to live in,
and whether we should become a European style welfare state,
and all the rest. I mean what I don't mean
forget about it. I mean just put it aside for
(14:45):
a second. What does it do to the economic challenges
that we see right now? And here's my buddy, Steve Rattner,
Steve not the other guy who wrote that op air
that I mentioned you earlier in the week, who's going
around This is a guy he's trying to raise the
alarm for Democrats by saying what you're doing is really bad. Now,
(15:06):
this is a guy who's a lib but he understands money.
He understands a monetary policy. He was a private equity guy,
and unlike economists, he actually had to be right or
else he goes broke right. So he's a savvy, savvy
guy about money. Here's what he says about why Biden
is unpopular. I think Afghanistan was a disaster. It made
(15:28):
well pass, but there's nobody in America pretty much who
thinks was handled well. The border is another huge problem
that the public perceives to be a result of Biden
encouraging people with this idea that it was going to
be a different attitude than Trump and people should come
and try to cross the border. That's another huge problem.
He's basically cast himself as a transformational president, one who's
(15:52):
going to be LBJ and FDR are put together. But
the problem is he didn't really have a mandate to
do that. LBJ when he was president had one hundred
and sixty nine seat majority in the House and he
had sixty nine sentence seats since Democrats, so he actually
had a mandated, absolutely correct analysis from an Obama advisor everybody.
(16:13):
I think one of the things that Obama people are
seeing is one they don't trust the competency of Biden.
But there was so much orange man bad associated with Trump,
which all of us out there listening right now know
how unfair it was. But now that Biden is in charge,
there seems to be a rationality in some parts of
(16:36):
the Democratic Party returning. That's an imminently reasonable, rational analysis
of the Joe Biden presidency. That's also devastating because it's
coming from a rational member of the Obama administration. And
I think the Democratic Party has gone so insane that
you're starting to see people push back now that Trump
(16:58):
is out of office, and that's why I think ultimately
this civil war in the Democratic Party is going to
get exposed in twenty twenty two, and also in twenty
twenty four. I think that's absolutely right. I think that
they've got a huge problem here because they have the
left wing base that they need to show us, but
also for donations and enthusiasm and energy and elections. They
(17:20):
think this is their time. I think that there are
some of the Democrat Party who realize the more of
the American people figure out the Green New Deal, madness,
the open border's agenda, these are not popular ideas with
most of America. That's why the Biden administration pretends they
don't want illegal immigration. That's why they pretend they don't
want to make guy A gas prices skyrocket, right to
(17:44):
make electricity companies based on cole Go bankrupt. They do
want that, but they won't be honest about it. And
as people see what's really going on, I think they're
gonna revolt. If we've learned anything since twenty twenty, my friends,
you know, a powerful immune system is essential gotta stay
healthy these days. That's why I've been taking Texas Superfood,

(18:57):
back in Clay, Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of
you hanging out with us as we rolled through a
Friday edition of the program. It's going to be joined
by Alex Berenson, the most dangerous man on Twitter potentially.
Although Twitter is losing its mind over what they are banning.
You knew what was going to get bad, it continues
to get worse. He'll join us at one Eastern. Then
(19:17):
at two Eastern we're gonna be joined by Jim Jordan
congressman to talk about what he and his staff have
uncovered surrounding the FBI and the DJ looking into parents
domestic terrorists as they were called, who are speaking out
at school boards, but the COVID madness continues to spread.
(19:38):
Earlier in the show, I may have said Australia was
going into full nationwide lockdown. They Australia did that for
over a year. But in Europe, Austria is going into
full nationwide lockdown. If I misspoke, there Austria, and there
are many other countries that are also implementing new policies.
We got doctor Fauci out at Cafe Milano Buck not
(20:01):
surprisingly in Georgetown, not wearing a mask, very fancy Cafe Milano.
And if you look, they continue to move the goalposts
here on how things get back to normal, and this
is doctor Ashish Jaw. They have now moved on from
if you remember Buck, wasn't very long ago they said, hey,
(20:23):
you get the vaccine, don't have to wear masks. Everything's
going to be back to normal. These vaccines work perfectly.
Now they've moved on to if you just get the booster,
everything will be fine. They keep moving the goalpost and
we keep having surging caseloads and hospitalizations. Let's play here,
(20:43):
cut thirteen. All we need is the boosters and things
will get back to normal. I think it is going
to make an enormous difference. What the data is now
really clear is that a third shot at booster shot
six months after your second shot of madernaur finder dramatically
reduces your risk of getting infected and spreading the virus.
So if all eligible Americans, if all adult Americans six
(21:04):
months I've got the booster, I think you would dramatically
lower the numbers of infections and spread in our country.
Here's what should be said by every person who claims
to be a journalist or a person who is has
a platform and can inform the public, and claims at
least that that is there a reason for doing what
they do. Every time we're told you should get a
(21:26):
booster shot, which we're remember we've been saying I think
since July, maybe August. On this show, they're going to
say boosters for everyone, and it's going to go from
suggested to highly suggested to mandatory. In some places. It
won't be mandatory in Florida won't be MAD, but but
in New York and in California they're gonna make it.
And even you mentioned the NBA Clay right, you have
(21:48):
to go through the unvaccinated protocols. You're not banned, but
unvaccinated protocols. If you don't get the booster, if you
have J and J, isn't that correct? Right? That's right?
And also, by the way, in the NFL buck they
have done away with any distinction now between vaccinated and
unvaccinated players because so many players are testing positive. For
Thanksgiving week, everybody has to wear masks and they're testing
(22:11):
everyone twice a day. So here's what should be asked
every time, I mean, every time someone says to you
or you hear someone and there's a moment for a
Q and a IN or an exchange, is this our
last booster? I want that that should be the question
that is shouted from And for some people, I know,
you're like, fuck, I'm not even getting a shot in
the first place. I know. But now we see beyond
(22:33):
any reasonable doubt that what we've been warning about as
essentially COVID forever. The processes we've been put through the
creation of QR codes of vaccine passports and vaccine mandates,
and how this is for a virus that rapidly mutates,
that has animal reservoirs that allow for it. Even if
(22:54):
we eradicated it from all humanity in America, it would
still exist in other countries around the world, and even
if you limited it from them, the virus has animal reservoirs.
There was a story recently about how it's really common
in deer. For example, a lot of deer have COVID,
so this means they we've got to vaccinate all the deer.
We are exactly We're gonna be living with COVID forever.
(23:14):
And instead of living in fear, we should learn to
live with the virus instead of thinking if I just
mask a little harder and listen to Fauci, accept what
he's at Kathy Milano with some catchioe peppe because that
stops the droplets. But I don't want to live in
fear anywhere. Everyone just needs to realize those at high risk,
(23:35):
just like in flu. My parents have been getting the
flu shot for years, my dad particularly, but my parents
have been getting the flu shot because the flu is
pretty dangerous. When you're in your sixties, seventies, eighties, right, Well,
you get the booster. No, yeah, I mean you got
unless someone's gonna tell me they're gonna like lock me
in my home, fired me from my job, and you know,
you know, export me to get my home. No, I'm
(23:57):
not getting the boost because because I think to your point,
there is a massive number of people that said, hey,
I'll do my part. I'll go get the vaccine. There
is not going to be that many people, I think,
who are willing to go get this poosh, especially in
their thirties, their forties, their fifties, who are otherwise healthy.
Think about this, And I said this so long. I'm somebody.
I've gotten so many vaccinations because of my time in
(24:19):
the CIA, getting sent to Africa, in the Middle East
and South Asia and places where you're getting vaccinations for things.
And I was just to go into the medical office
there and say like do I really need this? They're like, oh, yeah,
so it wasn't. They're like, you know, if you don't
want to get whatever this is, you don't want to
get a yellow fever or African sleeping sickness, or you know,
at any number of these different river blindness, whatever, all
(24:40):
these different disease. I can't remember what they're called so
I wasn't super opposed as a person from the beginning
to first of all, people at risk should get it,
and me myself, I didn't. I don't really care all
that much because I'm a pincushion for vaccinations. I hate
the mandates, right. A lot of people, a lot of
people who were saying, all right, fine, if it's going
(25:01):
to stop the spread, if it's going to make the
elderly safer, if it means I can't get it or
give it, you know, I'm not worried about myself, but
I'll do it to be a good guy for everybody else, which,
by the way, was part of the push from the
fact push it was it was you know, this is
about the community. It's not about you. Now we know
(25:23):
they were wrong. You can get it and spread it,
and it's happening in large numbers now, by the way,
the vaccines fail to stop that. The vaccines have failed,
which is, by the way, what everybody was getting banned
for saying, So we start and now they're just telling you,
oh no, but just just just the shot just two
(25:44):
weeks is now just this booster And I think enough
people they're finally saying no, blanking way. I'm done. I'm
not I'm not going to be protecting the community by
getting the equivalent the flu shot every six months for
the rest of my life. I'm sorry, not happening. And
(26:06):
I think that's where we are. And I would just
point out, and I keep saying it on the show,
we don't call the flu shot a flu vaccine. We
call it a flu shot because oftentimes you're guessing as
to whether or not you're hitting the right strain. It
has limited efficacy, and a huge percentage of people every
(26:27):
year choose not to get the flu shot. And we
have now created a COVID shot that is effectively going
to be a therapeutic in many ways like the flu shot.
And there are a lot of people buck who got
this vaccine, who listened to the government, who believed it
was going to end COVID because that's what they told
us it was going to do. And now the data
is quite clear that thought trying and just say, there
(26:47):
were a lot of people who thought they were really smart,
really smart, who were comparing this to the MMR vaccinations
for your children. Shut up, you have to get that
for your kids. Shut up. It's the same thing those people,
every single one of them who said it all over
the country on media or maybe just to you know,
some folks out there over lunch one day. Whatever they
(27:09):
were all wrong. Yes, is non mmr. It is not
a similar circumstance, different risk parameters, different protection parameters, different
number of shots you have to get that same thing
at all. No, it's percent true. And that's why the
idea of vaccine mandates for COVID for kids strikes so
(27:30):
many parents like me and many of you listening right now,
right in our heart, because this cannot be allowed to happen.
Born from the tragedy of nine eleven, the Tune of
the Towers Foundation has been honoring America's heroes ever since.
To mark twenty years since nine eleven, the Foundation's chairman
and CEO, Frank Siller, connected where America was attacked on
(27:51):
foot from the Pentagon to Shanksville to downtown Manhattan when
he retraced his brother's footsteps. Thanks to your support, Towers
of Light returned to the Pentagon and Shanksville Memorials, and
for the first time, our country recognized the people we
lost to nine to eleven related illness through the foundation's
name reading ceremony, and in another first, those lost in
the War on Terror had their names read aloud. That
(28:14):
ceremony is now the newest Tunnel to Towers annual tradition. Buck,
how can you help everybody out there to ensure the
Tunnel to Towers continues to have their voice honor our
vow to never forget. Donate eleven dollars a month at
T two t dot org. That's t the number two
t dot org tunnel the Towers Foundation. Think about what
(28:35):
you can do eleven dollars a month in a donation
from you t twot dot org. Welcome back to the
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We've got demand that
big Tech wants to ban. That could have actually been
the title of his book. The real title is Pandemia.
(28:57):
But Alex Barrenson will be with us short talking about
COVID's big problem. Folks, it's gonna get worse. Look at
what's going on Europe. Austria not to be confused with
Australia in a lockdown situation nationwide. We've also got Germany
having a really rough time. We've got a bunch of
places that are having really bad COVID numbers. And then
(29:20):
here they don't really have answers for Vermont highest COVID
cases remember ever, including a winter cycle where there were
no vaccines, and yet they have more COVID cases and
more hospitalizations. Now that seems quite Oh it's the unvaccinated.
We'll deal with that. We'll talk to Alex Parenson about that. First.
You did want to take some of your calls here.
(29:41):
Remember lines are open. It is open line Friday, eight
hundred two eight two two eight eight two. Dory in Chesapeake, Virginia, Hey, Dorry, Hi, Hi,
Oh my gosh, Okay, I just want to say I
love listening to your show. I've been listening Truss Lamba
(30:01):
ever since i was nine years old, and I'm a
big stand of this show. And well we appreciate that.
How old are you doing now, Dorry? That's great, Thank
you so much. I'm sixty. I'm about your in seventeen. Well,
thank you so much for listening, and we appreciate that
you like the show and that you think we're doing
rush proud here, So thank you so much, Dorry. David
in yet yad Kintonville. Have you heard of Ville? I
(30:24):
have not, yead Kintonville, North Carolina, what's up, David, Not
a whole lot, just real quickly. I have a pH
d and safety engineering, and y'all have been talking about
the mask, and when I teach people about the mask,
I try to explain it this way. We have to
know the size of the particulant that we're trying to
prevent from being inhaled, and so when we use certain mask,
(30:46):
it's like building a chain link fence and thrown a
cup of sand out at it and trying to prevent
the sand from entering it. Or if we use a
batter mask, we it's like using chicken wire and doing
the same thing. And if we're trying to main haying
a smaller particulate from getting into our lungs, then it's
like using the house screen. Well where at where we're
(31:06):
at right now is the mask that most everybody's wearing
is the chain line fence that's doing absolutely nothing except
holding some of the particulants in between the mask and
their own breathing, where they're inhaling the same potential contaminants
over and over again. I mean, thank you for that.
And by the way, this ties in with I want
(31:27):
to give Tom Elliott does really good work and encourage
you guys to following. Maybe you're going to be allowed
to great yeah, yeah, yeah, And he tweeted this, which
got him blocked on Twitter. We talked earlier this week,
Buck about how you said something about masks. I said
something about masks. Twitter wouldn't allow our opinions to be shared.
(31:47):
They're kind of coming after us. And you said, hey,
we want somebody from Twitter to come on the show
and try to explain. Here's what Tom Elliott tweeted, realities.
COVID vaccines don't inoculate you against the virus. They don't
stop you from spreading it. They can help mitigate worse outcomes.
They can also induce adverse events. There's no reason the
(32:11):
federal government should determine what is ultimately a private medical decision.
They shut down his Twitter account for that tweet. Buck.
They don't want there to be any remotely controversial about
because this is where we are right now, folks. We're
heading into a winter season in America where you're about
to see that in and thank you David from North
(32:33):
Carolina for callin. Thank you for the call. We are
about to see really the last eradication for anyone who's
paying attention to being honest, the eradication of any credibility
that the Fauciites have here in telling you. Now we know.
Maybe we didn't know before, but this time we know.
(32:56):
They keep doing it, and it keeps being untrue. Well
when it comes to the vaccines, and when it comes
to vaccine mandates, what we're seeing is their claim of
the level of protection, the duration of protection, the stopping
of spread, the prevention of hospitalization, all of that was untrue.
(33:18):
A portion of what they said now has been shown
to be somewhat accurate in a very limited capacity. But
that's not what they were telling us in the beginning.
That's not what they were telling us all summer. And
they pushed policy on their faulty understanding of facts in
reality once again. And this is why they're going to
get very testy about mask Clay, because you know it's
(33:39):
going to happen more and more masking, more and more masking,
and cases are going to go up, up, bend up.
But the mask works so well, mask works so well
that the Fauciites believe, the way you know they work
is that they never work. Therefore you must wear them more.
This is lunacy. I'm not even sure who they're gonna
blame now. I think the pivot's going to be Oh,
(34:00):
people aren't getting boosted enough. I think I'm actually curious
to ask Alex Berenson what he thinks, because keep in mind,
there's always someone they can blame for why their plan
doesn't work. What did they tell us as these cases
started to tick up during the summer, buck, Oh, this
is because some people are choosing not to be vaccinated.
Do you remember that Biden's speech where I mean it
(34:22):
sounded like from his tone, you know it's being angry
old then Biden, like I said, Biden, this whole thing
about the you know, the big you know, the grinning,
nice guy down the Biden's a jerk, always has been.
People actually know him will tell yeah, he's a glad
handing politician. He's a jerk. But he gave a speech
that made it sound like he was about to expel
the unvaccinated from America for being such a lethal risk
(34:45):
to the people around them. Well, now, how does that
look in retrospect? How does that jackass look? Now? They don't? Well, remember,
even dumber than blaming the unvaccinated was when he took
off as he said, Hey, if everybody just wears masks
for one hundred days, COVID go away. And to me,
there's always someone they're looking to blame. I don't think
(35:06):
they can blame the unvaccinated now because the unvaccinated has
become such a small minority of the overall population. Buck
ninety nine percent of people sixty five and older. Think
about this for a minute. Ninety nine percent of them
have had at least one shot. So you're gonna see.
I believe what's going to happen is we're gonna have
a pivot to this is because people aren't getting their
(35:28):
booster shots. They're going to start to shame people who
are not getting their booster shots. And I think there's
a lot of people out there that are frankly not
going to go down that path because they're gonna say,
I listened to you when you told me that if
I got the vaccine, COVID would go away. That's what
they told us, didn't happen, And now you're gonna tell
me that I have to get a booster or I'm
(35:50):
an awful person, or I'm not considered to be fully vaccinated.
And now you're going to tell me that kids have
to and everything else. Buck, this is going to be
an absolutely unmitigated disaster this winter. I've got something to
share with folks here from our friends at the New
York Post Carol Markowitz. So attributing it to Carol Markowitz
(36:11):
on Twitter, got a reliable tip that the Rittenhouse verdict
is in and will be announced in the next hour
from the New York Post Carol Markowitz. So we may
be with you here on air folks with that announcement
as it happens. We may be in the next hour.
That is what the tip says. We've also got Alex
(36:32):
Barrenson coming up next here to talk about the real
COVID numbers, what the heck is going on. Clay and
I are going to make it all make sense, because
that's how we roll here, the Clay and Buck Show.
