Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Welcome everybody. Thursday edition of The Clay
Travis and Buck Sexton Show starts right now. I've got
a lot to talk to you about today. First off,
the update from the Nashville school shooter, which we'll get
(00:21):
into in a moment. It seems that there is now
a report at least Daily Mail with this headline that
the shooter was targeting the school's head pastor. We'll discuss
that in a few moments here. Still have not seen
the manifesto, still has not been released, which I disagree with.
(00:42):
I think people should be able to see what the
motivations and what the psychological derangement was based in for
this this mass shooter. Yeah, I was just gonna say, Buck,
I was told it's going to be released by people
who would know. I also would just say, I think
(01:02):
there may be some crazy accusations in there, and so
that might be one of the challenges associated with releasing it.
And let me just kind of explain what I mean
by that. If you are a crazy person writing a
manifesto and you are personally attacking other people by names,
(01:23):
I think there's some challenges in editing this thing so
that you know, I think when we think a lot
of times a manifesto, it's like you're taking targets at
you know, the world has decided that it's going to
turn its back on us, and we have to do this.
But also there's parts in there where if there are
direct personal attacks on individuals, you have to figure out
how to parse and parcel that out, if that makes sense.
(01:45):
So I do think there's a little bit of a challenge,
as it would likely be the case with any mentally
ill individual, trying to figure out how exactly to put
that thing out there without increasing the pain that might
be involved in some of the people who are already victims,
if that makes sense. Since it's an interesting idea, if
it's going to be released eventually, I'm not really sure
(02:07):
what and I don't know that law enforcement is going
to be in a position. It's not national security sensitive information, correct,
so so redacting things isn't really in their purview. And
I am just I will recall that at the Pulse
nightclub shooting, if you remember, this was the most egregious
This is what a lot of us think may be
(02:27):
happening right now to your point, by the way, maybe
that is what's going on. Yeah, but for a lot
of us who have covered terrorists acts, mass shooting, hate
crimes for for many years. You go back and think
about Pulse Nightclub. They exed out or blacked out things,
you know, they remove things from the transcript the FBI
under the Obama administration, where the guy was like, I
(02:48):
pledge my loyalty too, they blanked it. Well, it was
the Abrahamic state. And then he says, and I'm murdering
all these people in the name of Allah, Like we
know what the blacked out lines were, but they did
it anyway, and everybody remembers how both were welly in
and condescending and absurd. That was. So I just feel
(03:11):
like there's not a lot of good faith that there
need to be redactions done to a manifesto that what
you're saying maybe true. Again, we don't know, but if
that were the case, Clay law enforcements should say there
are security issues. There are you know, there are people's
home addresses, phone numbers, like we can't just put stuff
in there. That's out for everybody. But it's very hard
(03:34):
for people to pass that and then think, well, this
has nothing to do with this shooter telling everybody why
she was going to do this, which is what the
part of motive is that you know right now they're saying, oh,
we don't know the motive. That's what law enforcement is stating. Well,
and I understand one hundred billion percent, buck, we still
don't know. Just to pull one out out of a
hat here, they never told us why that Las Vegas
(03:57):
shooter acted, right, I mean store, I mean the guy
opened fire from the hotel in Vegas. I don't use
it concert. I don't think that's an apples to Apple's
comparison though, because he didn't leave behind a manifesto that
it's like, this is why I did it? Right that
we know of right, I mean that to be fair
that we know of yes, true, but we know there
(04:18):
was a manifesto. This person left behind a here's why
I did it mane It specifically said in a message
to one of her friends that we read on this program,
You'll know why I did this when you read my manifesto,
basically letting her friend know right before she opened fire.
I mean, we'll see because if it's if it is
(04:38):
a politically highly sensitive material. That's okay, and we can
just by the way, I don't know what's in there.
Obviously Clay doesn't know what's in there. But just if
we're looking at the possibilities here, Clay has laid out
something interesting that I hadn't heard anyone really raised yet.
And I do think that if it's that, law enforcement
should say, guys, look there's some things in there, because
(04:59):
right now we're just being told almost like we're not
able to handle as a society being able to read
this correct. You know, there are plenty of crazy people's
manifest she is a crazy trans shooter, and that her
act was motivated by her trans ideology, and that because
this is an inconvenient narrative for the left in this country,
that they will not allow that story to be told.
(05:20):
That is the fear right and buck. Going back to
Monday off air, I said, hey, based on these details
that are coming out, it feels to me like this
may be a trans shooter and ended up being true.
So I would just kind of I certainly understand why
people are upset that this hasn't been released, and also
(05:41):
the more days that pass where it's not released, the
less attention it's going to get right. That's why the
time they have to focus on gun control, which is
the narrative right now that is predominating. That's why there's
no trust here in the delay because if there is
politically politically look, let's be honest, politically imaging stuff in
there to the left, the longer they wait, the sense is,
(06:05):
the less attention it will get and the less political
damage it will do. There should be no political cover
up allowed in a situation like this, whatsoever. The people
have a right to know. To your point, if it
comes out and there's you know, home addresses blacked out,
and there's an explanation of this, and there's now some
people won't even by the way, except that they'll say,
I don't trust what's blacked out. They've doctored this, they've
(06:26):
removed things, and I gotta say, I don't know. That
could be true as well. Remember the Pulse nightclub shooting
showed the FBI will act like utter morons under a
Democrat administration because they were told to because of politics,
no question about it. When they redacted all the information
from that transcript, because we all knew it wasn't even
like they hit anything effectively. So now there's no faith.
(06:48):
And now I think we have to see why the
delay of so many days. Who is the authority that
can come along and say all right, it's okay now
for people to see this. Here's a question that I
think a lot of you out there would not along with.
If the shooter had been motivated by January sixth and
a stolen election, and he had written a manifesto or
(07:08):
she had written a manifesto on that, would it be
out yet? It would have been the lead news story,
as we know, every day, all day since the incident,
without exception, and if anybody told any other if anyone
gave a stock update for thirty seconds before they went
back to the story, MSNBC would be saying they're minimizing
this horrific atrocity. And it would have been leaked instantaneously
(07:31):
to the New York Times or the Washington Post. It
would have been out there. So this is why I
have me. I honestly, I have no faith in I
have no faith that there's good faith in the delay here.
I have no faith in that whatsoever. If I'm proven wrong,
I'll say, okay, it looks like law enforcement here, because
we were Look, we praise what is good, we criticize
what is bad. Obviously beyond question those law enforcement officers,
(07:53):
you know, the two with the body camps, but there
were others there. I feel like those guys also deserve
a lot of credit that exactly the right thing moved well.
I had various friends from the special ops community reach
out and say that they were One of those guys
was a marine. By the way. One of the officers um,
they're you know, they're proud of how those guys moved,
proud of how they how they got on on target
right away, went after the threat. Um. And there was
(08:16):
a lot of transparency in the first twenty four hours
from the chief of police. But then it just stopped
on this one issue. Yep. And and that it to
a lot of people. I think Clay feels highly suspicious,
and it does feel like there's some political fix that's
in and and now I guess we're I was gonna
talk about that. We'll talk about the gun control push.
You got Joe Scarborough yelling about it. I'll actually Congressman
(08:38):
Bowman is really yelling about it, yelling at at Thomas Massey,
another member of Congress who's a really both aerudite and
amusing guy Thomas Massey's really funny and really smart. Um.
But we'll talk about the gun control pushed part of
this in a second. I mentioned this at the top,
and we have other stories you want to talk about
today as well. By the way World Health Organization look
(09:00):
at shot, whether teenagers, healthy teenagers and children should actually
get the COVID shot. But we'll lay some of this
out coming up here after the break. The Nashville shooter,
according to Daily Mail, was having private counseling sessions with
the school's head pastor before the massacre. He did kill
the pastor's nine year old daughter, We know that. So
it does seem that there was a personal grudge, effectively,
(09:24):
you know, personal assassination motive tied into this whole thing,
but it could be much broader in terms of the ideology.
We don't know what other targets. There's already been discussion
that there were other targets that came out the first
day from the chief of police in Nashville. We don't
know what they dispute. I mean this, you would think
(09:45):
this pastor was giving counseling sessions to a former student
of the school, what could have possibly happened in her
mind right that would then make her think that that
this I mean, there's nothing more monstrous than what this
woman did. Nothing monster. So I think we have a
right to know how did this person become a monster?
Because this was truly evil and depraved in the worst way.
(10:09):
And I think that anybody who's trying to hide this
from the public for reasons of anything other than as
you said, individual safety redacting information is really acting in
a way that's uh, that's awful. Maybe personal attacks just
something to think about too, Um like crazy lies. There
could be crazy lies manifesto for sure, Yes, but I
(10:29):
don't know how you you know, everyone knows this person
is crazy and this person is dead, right, So is
the idea that the police will cover up some asks,
you know what I mean? Let's say that manifesto had
some you know, crazy, truly crazy allegations against named individuals.
I don't think anybody would believe, you know, believe the
allegations or you know. I just wonder, is the idea
(10:52):
then that law enforcement keeps this stuff silent or keeps
us hidden forever it will get out eventually. I mean,
I was in the CIA I can tell you secrets
that people want to know. Don't stay don't stay secret
for Hey, look, the Steel dossier was all completely made up,
and it was one of the most widely distributed, uh
you know, investigatory investigation, investigatory materials of all time. Right. So,
(11:14):
but you're you've heard from good sources in the area
and ever knows obviously Clay is born and raised in Nashville,
lives in Nashville, so he knows folks in the area
very well. You think that the manifesto will will come out.
I was told that it will come out, And what
I have been told is that there is like we know,
the manifesto is going to be crazy, right, this is
(11:35):
a crazy person that there are challenging parts of the
manifesto that are crazy in ways different than you know,
like the sun is not going to come up tomorrow
because you know, like all the crazy things that you
would expect personal things that are crazy as well. So
that's what I've been told. Obviously I haven't seen it.
I believe I'm always in favor of transparency. I've tweeted
(11:57):
and said on this show. I wanted out publicly for
everybody to be able to see, because I think the
motivations do matter. But I am told that eventually it
is going to be out. Would I would just say
that again, Clay law enforcement should just be transparent about
why they can't be transparent in this moment. Yeah, And
then we can judge for ourselves whether they're telling the
truth at the end of this right If they are
telling the truth, will then it make sense anyway? Look,
(12:21):
treat your feet to a pair of my slippers. Take
advantage of the massive close out sale going on right now.

also call eight hundred seven nine two thirty two sixty
nine for this incredible offer. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton
(13:24):
chuck up a win for Team Reality Buck. I want
to mention this also going into the trans crazy mindset,
I think it's important sometimes to understand the language and
(13:47):
what is going on in the country right now. So
in my home state of Tennessee, they have passed a
bill that bands so called gender affirming care for anyone
under the age of eighteen. And they've also said, hey,
you're going to have to play on, you know, the
teams if you're in high school, you're going to play
on the athletic teams of your birth certificate. I believe
(14:11):
Kentucky literally yesterday just passed basically the same bill. West
Virginia just passed the bill. Utah, I know recently did
Red states all over the country are saying, hey, you
cannot get gender transition surgery or treatment if you are
(14:31):
under the age of eighteen. I think that's imminently rational.
Most of these states also, for instance, Buck wouldn't allow
you to get a tattoo, you can't vote, you can't
even get a beer till you're twenty one. It doesn't
seem crazy to me to say, hey, we're not going
to allow your breast to be removed when you're fourteen
or fifteen years old, Right, you have to be an adult.
(14:53):
The trans community, some parts of the trans community, have
decided that these laws are trans genocide. And some of
you out there, I know you're like, this is also crazy,
Like how do we follow it along? What's the logic?
I think it's important to lay out the thought process here.
(15:15):
The trans community believes that if you some people in
the trans community, if you are not allowing them to
become trans, switch from man to woman to man, whatever
it is, you are attempting to erase the trans community,
and that is, in some of their minds, akin to genocide.
(15:40):
If that is the belief, then they are being radicalized
into the idea that you have to defend the trans
worldview by any means necessary, because there is a cultural
genocide being perpetrated against the trans community. That's how some
(16:02):
members of the trans community are describing these bands on
treatments for people under eighteen years old. I just think
it's important buck for our audience to kind of because
I don't think a lot of people even understand this.
I'm trying to take you into their worldview and why
it might lead to violence if you are willing to
(16:22):
believe that, and you may already be somewhat mentally ill.
This is why you know there have been people suspended
on Twitter that client I both know John Davis, for example,
the federalist friend of ours who's on Tucker I think
last night or the night before talking about this, just
for pointing out that there is a trans day of vengeance,
that is what they are calling it. By the way, yes,
(16:44):
this weekend and on the flyer, I believe there's some
mention of stopping the trans genocide. Yes, this is a
total fabrication. This is look scar is almost like a
collective mental illness. This notion that there's a transgenocide is
complete the insane, truly clinically insane. It is based on
(17:04):
no factual data whatsoever. Unless you start to understand what
the narrative is, which is that if you have a
woman who believes that she's a man, and you refuse
to just go along with that in every sense, everything, sports, life, work, everything,
you are erasing. That is the terminology that they use
that person. And therefore that eraser constitutes an act of genocide,
(17:29):
the mass elimination and slaughter of a people based upon
an immutable characteristic. That is the left rhetoric that's there,
that's their idea. Buck And if you are already maybe
a little bit mentally unstable, and you buy into that
rhetoric of genocide, it may not be shocking that you
would be willing to engage in acts of violence if
(17:52):
you believe that your people, the trans community, is effectively
being erased. I think that's a toxic idea, but one
that maybe, unfortunately quite a few trans people are willing
to buy into. Every hour of every business day matters
to the small business owner. Time is money, right, Getrefunds
dot Com gets that. That's why they've made it easier
(18:14):
than ever to apply for the Employee Retention Credit or ARC.
This is the tax refund program from the IRS for
qualifying businesses. Go to Getrefunds dot Com to get started
and in less than eight minutes. See if your business
qualifies for ARC assistance, your business may be eligible for
a payroll tax refund about the twenty six thousand dollars
per employee kept on payroll during COVID nineteen. Getrefunds dot
(18:37):
Com has already helped clients claim over three billion dollars
in payroll tax refunds through the ARC. They may well
be able to help your business too. There's no upfront
charge either. They only get paid if your business gets
its refund. Many businesses believe they won't qualify based off
incomplete or outdated information. Don't let this opportunity pass you by.
This payroll tax refund is only available for a limited time.
(18:59):
Go to get refunds dot Com. That website again is
gets refunds dot Com. So what are reason approached to
do right now about safety security in this country? What
(19:20):
is the national conversation about around gun violence focusing on
As you know, every time there's an incident there's a mass,
mass casualty, mass murder incident involving a firearm, the immediate
response of the Democrats is a version of gun control.
(19:40):
What I think is interesting is it changes based upon
whatever they've been told for the most recently is the
thing that has to be addressed. So maybe it'll be
universal background checks, and then you'll wait another another year,
and then it will actually be an assault rifle band,
and then you'll wait another year and then it'll be
(20:00):
you know, I don't know any any number of things, um,
bumstock band, pistol, brace band, magazine, limitations, all kinds of things,
and sometimes are probably I mentioned bump stock band. Sometimes
Republicans go along with some of this stuff too. So
there was an exchange in Congress that's getting a lot
(20:22):
of attention. And actually before we go to that, Joe Scarborough,
former Republican member of Congress, we should probably find I'm
sure if you went back into the early two thousands,
there are videos of Joe Scarboro and MSNBC like you know,
Molan Labbay, I love my I love my rifles and shotguns.
You know, whatever it's, it's has no no principle reps.
(20:45):
The Panhandle buck, I just I can't get over this.
For anybody who's ever been to the Panhandle of Florida,
it is one of the greatest places in the South,
but it's basically Alabama on the beach right it could
not be more or of a red state bastion. This
is not Tampa, this is not Jacksonville, right, like he
(21:06):
could have wrapped parts of Florida that are kind of
middle of the road locations, although the whole state of Florida.
Thankful he's basically read now, but this is the reddest
of the red right. If you ever watch the election
results come in, we're still on Central time in the Panhandle,
and I say week because I've got a place down
there and absolutely love it. We're still on Central time
and all of the votes come rolling in for Republicans
(21:28):
in that final hour of the votes being in there.
So he reps the reddest place in America. It's not
just he was a congressman, Buck, he repped the heart
and soul of the SEC country. Right. This is basically
look at this from the Floridian perspective, Clay, what do
you call one who comes from the Panhandle? Panhandle? I
(21:50):
don't think you'd want to call him panhandlers, because that's
not necessarily a yeah, I'm just necessarily a positive. That's
a different thing. So there must be some term that
we have. Well, some people call it LA for Lower Alabama,
even though it's technically like again, if you're if you're
a little bit of a map nerd, there's a great story.
It's probably the worst decision ever made by the state
(22:11):
of Alabama. Buck they had the chance to buy, Florida
tried to sell them the panhandle, right, And for those
of you out there, like, what does panhandle mean? It
looks like the handle of a pan because the state
of Florida, like it dips down, but there's this little
part of the handle that is right there directly beneath
Alabama buying large and Alabama ended up not being able
to get the bill passed in their state legislature to
(22:33):
buy this area, and as a result, Florida keeps all
this gorgeous Gulf Coast beach that wraps right around underneath that.
Now there's a little bit of Alabama. If you've ever
been to Orange Beach or Gulf Shores, it's beautiful, same beaches,
but it's at the tail end of Alabama. But most
of it is now in Florida, and so and so
(22:53):
we're panhandle. It's a good point. It's it's God's country.
But LA is sometimes what it's called for Lower Alabama
because that's basically what it is. So we got on
this rant because of Joe Scarborough, who's on his own
rant over how gun control is so important that we
should get rid of the filibuster over this one play four.
(23:15):
You look at voting rights, you look at guns, you
look at abortion, you look at all of these things.
And I must say, I've always been a strong believer
and the filibuster. I've always loved the idea that the
house is hot, the Senate cools things down. No more.
(23:36):
It doesn't work. When six percent of Americans can allow
the continued proliferation of guns without background checks and the
killing of children, It's time to get rid of the filibuster.
The radical minority can hide behind the filibuster and do it.
Enough is enough, get rid of the filibuster so we
could have universal background checks. Also to pretend that the
(23:59):
conservative base is not opposed to the killing of children.
This is the worst kind of demagoguery you will ever
come across in American politics, and it is the ugliest,
the most dishonest, and the stupidest. But Joe Scarborough, he
is a firm believer in whatever puts more money in
Joe Scarborough's bank account. And whatever gets more Democrats to
clap for him as he pretends to be a centrist
(24:19):
or whatever. This really might be the most frustrating issue
to me now that we've kind of come through COVID
and everybody's acknowledged in default status that all the people
who wanted lockdowns and masks and everything else that they
were basically wrong, including COVID shot vaccination. They won't say
it publicly, but they're just now, this is how it ends, right.
They just pretend that they never argued it and just
(24:40):
kind of vanished. It's kind of like how defund the
police vanished. Buck. There wasn't some massive recognition and acknowledgement
in the Democrat Party that they anybody who'd ever argued
for defund the police was an imbecile. It was just
they tried to start saying, oh, we never really said that,
and it just kind of vanishes from the public discourse.
The media helps them. I I've not heard any thing
(25:03):
that is said that has been said that would stop
what happened in my hometown of Nashville from happening, right,
And this is why it's a frustrating political argument because
people just scream like this, Jamal Bowman in the capital.
There is no tangible act that can be pointed to
that would change this. Now, I actually give never done
(25:23):
this on the show. I don't think Randy Weingarten credit
because she said I don't basically don't want there to
be guns anywhere in a country. We have to seize
them all. They shouldn't exist anymore. I don't agree with that,
But Randy, she's full communist, and so she'll say it.
She'll say she'll go full commy and say it out loud.
Take all the guns all, Yeah, take everybody's guns, confiscate them.
(25:48):
The government should melt them all down. They shouldn't exist.
If that's your argument, I don't agree with it, but
I respect that you're willing to make that argument. But
most Democrats are pretending that they learnt in favor of that,
and there meanwhile arguing something that would have no impact
whatsoever on these shootings, and really, buck, the real conversation
(26:09):
we should be having is what kind of medication was
this transperson on and how much did that create a
sort of fertile opportunity for her to go crazy? Did
it at all? I'd be nervous about that, given how
many millions of people are on different transgender drugs all
(26:30):
over this country, and how do those interact potentially with
other mental illness drugs? And buck how many trans people
are being radicalized over this idea that there is a
genocide being perpetrated against them, because a lot of decent
humans all over this country have risen up and said, hey,
we shouldn't be mutilating fourteen year old bodies. We should
(26:53):
at least wait till they become adults to have these
gender changing surgeries, which is not a radical proposition all,
it's actually common sense. Only the right is ever held
responsible for the horrific and maniacal acts of one individual
in a country three hundred and thirty million people, even
if the connection is very tenuous, and even if it's
(27:18):
a stretch. I mean, but this is what they do
all the time, right, This is this is Democrats. This
is the the unfortunately the political game they they've always played.
You know, it's you know they blamed remember they blamed
Sarah Palin for Gaddy Gifford's right, I mean, this is
this is who they This is who they are politically.
They'll find some way to make it your fault, you
(27:38):
who vote Republican, you who are conservative are responsible for
the acts of any individual that is even right of center,
but on the left. You know the BLM activist who
murdered five Dallas police officers after years of Democrats walking
around saying that young black men were being murdered relentlessly
and without consequence by police. Oh, that isn't the result
(28:00):
of any Democrat rhetoric. No, that had nothing to do
with it. It's even worse than that with this case, Buck,
because not only is it clear that this crazy trans
person was responsible, they're now arguing Republicans, some are Republicans,
are responsible also for the actions of a crazy trans
person who clearly was not even remotely conservative or right
(28:24):
of center, for motivating her to even be able or
willing to consider this, and allowing her to be able
to go out and buy a gun with which this murder,
these murders were used and occurred. Right, So, because of
the arguing even for the fake genocide, right, the fake
genocide that they're talking about is the basis for the
(28:47):
belief that led to this person to do it. And
the problem then is the people who have created the
pretense of the fake genocide, or rather the belief in
some that there's a fake genocide going on. Yeah, that's
what MSNBC and CNN are trying to argue right now,
which is again, while we started the show by saying
the release of the manifesto is important, maybe top of
the next hour we should get into this the gun
control argument by Jamal Bowman, member of Congress with Thomas
(29:08):
it's a really interesting exchange that everybody should hear. Sorry, yeah,
asset managers names. You know, they're using your retirement funds
to further their ESG agenda. Last year, state treasurers across
the nations in a message to stop playing politics with
our pensions by divesting five billion dollars from these companies.
Twenty five states are now suing the block ESG nonsense
from endangering your retirement. Republicans on Capitol Hill recently passed
(29:32):
the bill blocking the Biden administration from allowing huge asset
managers from using your hard earned money to further their
ESG agenda. But while conservatives in the House and Senate
have your back, last week, President Biden used his veto
pen to kill the bill. Senator Joe Manshon, a Democrat
who voted to block ESG, investing blasted Biden's veto is infuriating,
(29:52):
charged it as putting a quote radical and progressive agenda
ahead of the country's needs. These firms have a finuciary
due due to maximize returns. They should be held to
account for playing politics with our pensions and doing it
without our consent. To learn how Consumers Research is protecting

(30:42):
I think we got to talk about it. The who
are good friends at the World Health Organization. They have
now issued recommendation and I know many of you out
there are going to be furious about this, saying healthy
kids and teenagers don't need to get the COVID shot.
(31:04):
So after years of you know, for instance, every college
in America not only requiring you to get the COVID
shot to be able to go to school, but also
requiring many of them you to get the COVID booster shot.
And after many of those good mask wearing left wing
(31:25):
lunatics out there dragged there two and three and four
year old kids to go get the COVID shot as
soon as it was available, the World Health Organization now says, actually,
COVID SHOT's not really necessary at all for young healthy
people you know who. That sounds like Clay Travis and
(31:45):
Buck Sexton show where we are of course flagged for
misinformation for pointing all this out based on the data
in the analytics. What I wonder Buck, is will the
CDC under Joe Biden ever acknowledge this recommendation or even
be willing to admit that it exists? And will there
even be any media out there that are willing to
(32:09):
press the Biden administration on this at all, because they
have been screaming that kids need to get the COVID
shot for years now. This reminds me of arguments that
I was making before we even teamed up Clay, where
I would I would say that if you really thought,
(32:30):
you know the way that these people do about a
whole range of things, like their kids getting COVID and
the chance of them dying from COVID. For example, if
you believe that it was too much of a risk,
then you should not let your kids go outside. Ye ever, period, right?
Sure we should let him ever swim? Yea? Swimming is
like the most dangerous thing kids do. Can't go in
(32:51):
a pool, not allowed to use the bathtub, I mean
a whole range of thing. Can't ever do it? Sorry, sorry,
you have a one in a million chance of dying
from something. If you're going to worry about one in
a million chances, you should never And honestly, even your
home is kind of dangerous, your slimp electrocution, you know,
it gets really scary out there. Instead of being a
(33:14):
person of integrity and honesty and decency, Anthony Fauci and
Deborah Burkes and the rest of them decided to just
exploit those fears to give Because when people are terrified,
you know that they want to believe that their fears
are reasonable and they want someone to allay their fears.
And instead of being honest with them and saying your
fears are irrational, stop being crazy burks and listens. Oh yes,
(33:39):
you should be so scared. This is where it took
on a religious element. You should be terrified of COVID.
You must mask all the time. We will protect you.
Listen to us. The honest answer would have been, you're
gonna get COVID. We're all gonna get COVID, and unless
you're really old and your mute system is such that
you're at risk from anything anyway, you'll be okay. Probably.
(34:00):
I just think it's wild buck, because three years ago,
if you argued your kids didn't need to wear a mask,
you were trying to kill everyone, right. I mean, that's
what I argued at my school board. Biden administration Department
of Justice investigates everybody who's speaking at the school boards.
Remember that was what they were doing in the Nashville area.
And now we've moved from certainly the idea that kids
(34:23):
need to wear masks is laughably ridiculous, even for many
left wingers out there. They now are not making their
kids wear masks. They won't admit that they were imbeciles.
But we've taken the next step of not only do
kids not need to wear masks, but also they don't
even need to get the COVID shot at all, because
COVID is of such low risk to them. Buck, you
(34:44):
were more likely to die in a car accident driving
your kids to school. Your kids were by far than
they ever were to have any negative impact from COVID.
Think about how crazy that is. And I've been saying
it for years, and I think a lot of people
now started to recognize it. To your point on one
in a million chances, if you drive your kids to school,
(35:04):
your kids are more likely to die in the car
ride to school than they are ever from COVID. I
think it's I think COVID as a very important political lesson,
and it's we could we with a virus that was
effectively a point zero two fatality rates something like that.
(35:26):
Spanish flus, just by way of comparison, is estimate to
be more like five percent fatality rate. Yeah, and there
were people were dying, Yes, I was gonna say there were,
And it was mostly people twenty to forty who were dying. Actually,
older people were doing okay with it. Very young people
were doing better with it. By the numbers, it could
kill anybody, but five percent fatality rate, okay. And we
(35:48):
remember they're all there were the mask societies and all
this stuff that and what they figured out was that
actually didn't do anything, but people insisted we got a
taste of how quickly America could actually turn into a
talitarian society. And I know that sounds that sounds a
little extreme, but we did all the things we did
with a point zero two fatality rate virus that we
(36:10):
all ended up getting. Anyway, imagine if the fatality rate
was five percent yea or more that I mean, Fauci
would be would be king of the Earth, threatening to
nuke anybody who said a word I know of criticism
against him. That's where we would have been if things
had gotten much much worse. So freedom made free Clay,
(36:31):
no doubt. By the way, one of our VIP emailers
wrote in you were asking one of the panhandlers call themselves,
and Kindra, here is right. We affectionately call ourselves on
the Panhandle of Florida. We say it's the redneck rivi era.
So for people out there, and a lot of rednecks
from the Southeast made this their beach of choice. So
(36:51):
it's the what is the noun for those from the Panhandle?
You know what I'm saying, Like that's it is fine.
You can call it the redneck Riviera, but people from
there are called what I think you'd have to say, panhandler,
even though it's not necessarily are I think it's right.
