Speaker 1 (00:02):
From the heart of the Space City to the heart
of gen Z. Welcome to Next Gen Conversation, not Dad's
Talk Radio. Ethan talks to you about the issues and
events that men are to our generation.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
This is the Next Gen Report, put Ethan un Hey, everybody,
welcome back to the Next Gen Report to the Wednesday
edition of the show. Pleasure to be with you, all right,
what do we have going on? First of all, I
hope your Labor day was good. Nice long Labor day weekend.
(00:39):
I had a great Labor day, hung out at the
beach with my family. That's always a good time. And yeah,
just kind of took things easy as you should. I
hope you tuned in to AM nine fifty KPRC caught
the best of segments that we did. A lot of
people in radio use best of as an opportunity to
(01:03):
just I don't want to say half asset, but it's
almost what it turns into. I try not to do that.
When I give you the best of segments, I really
am looking through the archive of my show and trying
to find the actual best of my show. And that's
what I present to you on those days that I
take a weekend off when we have a nice holiday weekend.
(01:26):
And so that's what I did. If you missed it,
you missed it. It's gone. But the podcast is there
and everything I air and the best of is available
on the podcast. So go take a listen to that
if you've got the time. It's wherever you get your podcasts,
literally anywhere Spotify, Apple Music, iHeartRadio. I think it's even
on Google Podcasts. I didn't even know Google podcast was
the thing, but apparently we put it there. I didn't
(01:47):
know that. But anyway, go check that out wherever you
get podcasts at Underscore, Ethan Buchanan on x there's all
the links there, so highly recommend it. Anyway, let's get
into it. What do we have going on today? Epstein?
Epstein's back, guys. I mean he's not back, but the
Epstein files are back. Anna Paulina Luna tweeted this out
(02:08):
just randomly. All Epstein files can be found here. They
were uploaded by House Oversight, just randomly on a Tuesday afternoon,
dropped this bombshell. I didn't see it coming. Nobody saw
this coming. We didn't know this was happening, but it happened.
So there's the link. There's the tweet. There's the Google drive.
I'm in it. I have them. Those are the Epstein files,
(02:28):
thirty three thousand pages. By the way, No, I have
not dug into them. I do not have the time
to dig into them right now, but I do have them.
I will be digging into them and keeping up with
people who have more time and resources to dig into
them than I do. Obviously, there's gonna be some interesting
(02:49):
stuff in here, right and there's also gonna be a
lot of redacted things. There's gonna be a lot of
stuff missing, stuff to ask questions about. All of this
will come later. This is really going to be a
major story, I think, probably for the Sunday show, So
tune in on Sunday AM nine fifty KPRC. I'm sure
we'll have more stuff to talk about there. One thing
we do have right now, courtesy of Bennie Johnson, who
(03:10):
does have the time and resources to go dig through
this is Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself, dude, he
just didn't. I try not to be a conspiracy theorist.
I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist, but this
is pretty damning. Nine days before his death, Epstein did
not appear to be an immediate threat to self, as
(03:30):
per Bureau of Prisons suicide risk assessment in the Oversight
Committee's Epstein file release. There's just no way that he
went in a span of nine days from I'm gonna
fight this out in the courts or make a deal
or what have you. I'm not gonna kill myself. I've
never wanted to kill myself, and I don't want to
now to This is hopeless. I'm gonna kill myself. It
(03:54):
just could not have happened, all right. So I try
not to be a conspirat theorist, but I am a
conspiracy realist. He didn't kill himself. He just didn't. I
don't believe he killed himself. You cannot convince me that
he killed himself, at least not willingly. All right, now,
we'll see what else comes out of these Epstein files.
(04:15):
We don't know for sure. Like I said, there's gonna
be a lot in here, and there's gonna be a
lot not in here. So it's gonna take time to
parsloy this again. It's like thirty three thousand pages of files.
You don't just dig through that overnight. I'm sorry, you
just don't so we'll see, we'll see what happens. Anyway,
let's talk about Jasmine Crockett, everybody's favorite lady. I think
that's enough, Epstein. We'll get back to that on Sunday.
(04:38):
Here's Jasmine Crockett. She unveiled this over the weekend, this
new ghetto accent. She's been called out for this a
lot recently, a lot. So first, let me play you
the accent, just so you understand how outrageous it is,
and then I'll play you an older cut of her.
I've played this cup before, speaking normally, just so that
(05:02):
you know she's faking it. Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Maybe because these people they are crazy, because they always
talk about how Christian they is. Yeah, I don't know
how many of them on that side, I'm getting divorced
because they getting caught up sleeping with their coworkers staffers, And.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Okay, let me start here out there. That is a problem.
We do need to work on that, ken. But but
why is she talking like that? Why she's not even
stringing together a proper sentence. Call me old fashioned, but
I think our congress people should speak proper English. Okay,
(05:37):
that's just me, all right, keep going all the things. Yeah,
you ain't gotta believe me. Just go Google.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
You'll find some of it, I'm telling you. And the
Wives is being messy and petty.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
They the Wives is being messy, but she is talking
about Campexty by the way. The Wives is being messy
and petty. Yeah. They You ain't even have to talk
about it. Blah blah blah blah. Just speak English. It's
not that hard, right, Just speak proper English. You can
make your point without doing vocal blackface. And that's what
(06:07):
she's doing. I'll prove it to you. Look, here's her
talking no less than two years ago to a TV reporter.
If I can get the video to play, theirst of all,
it's good to see you in the new year.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
You know, no one could have told me that when
I went down to Austin now looks like a little
bit over a year ago, that I would be running
for Congress.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Maybe because and there's the side by side comparison. She's
not doing this naturally. This is not her natural speaking voice,
you know, it isn't. It's undeniably not her natural speaking voice.
But she's doing it anyway. Why I don't know. I'll
give a dollar to anyone who can tell me, is
(06:49):
this what it takes to win the black vote? Is
that what she's doing? I feel like you can be
a proper, well spoken African American and still win a
seat in Congress. I know this because west Hunt is
a very well spoken black man who holds a seat
in Congress, and he's a Republican. Is this just a
Democrat thing? What is going on? Why is she doing this?
(07:12):
She didn't used to do it. She was an elected
Democrat at the state level and she didn't do this.
What is the point? I have to know? The fact
that I don't know is honestly stretching me out. I can't,
for the life of me, make sense of it. But
it does strike me as condescending. It does. I don't
know if that's what she's going for, if it is condescending,
(07:34):
but that's how it reads. Speak proper English. Have some
respect for yourself. You're a sitting congresswoman. Good God in Heaven.
All right, we got a great show coming up for you,
a whole lot that we're gonna dig into today. So
stay tuned. I'm gonna take a quick break and we
will be right back with more of the next gen report.
Thank you very much. All right, welcome back, Thank you
(08:24):
for sticking around. If you're stuck around. All right, here
we go a little bit more Jeffrey Epstein's stuff, and
then we'll get to some good Trump. We've had a
lot of good Trump recently, and I'm very proud of
the fact that I am a fair person politically speaking,
I am tied to results, not necessarily a political party.
(08:47):
So I will call good and bad Trump when I
see good and bad Trump. We got some good Trump
that we're gonna talk about in just a minute. But
first a little bit more on Jeffrey Epstein and Apaulino.
Luna spoke on Tuesday evening yesterday night. If you're watching
this on Wednesday, when I upload it about the big
(09:09):
Epstein file dump that we just had thirty three thousand
files uploaded to a freaking Google doc of all places,
that is weird. That's just weird. You'd think they'd put
it on an official government website, you know, like a
House dot gov website somewhere. I don't know it's a
House committee releasing all these files. Nope, they just put
(09:30):
it on a Google Drive and call it a day.
Fair enough, But right after they did that, and Apaulina
Luna tweets out the link. She goes crazy on X great,
that's what we want, transparency from government. I like it.
Here she is at a press conference of sorts. I
guess I think it's kind of an impromptu press conference.
It doesn't look very formal. But here she is, right
(09:53):
after those files were released, speaking to reporters. And what
she says here he's interesting. We'll say interesting. All right,
so take a listen to this.
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Right now. The biggest thing that stands out to me
is the victims themselves have stated that this is a
lot bigger than I think anyone anticipated. We are obviously
being going to be requesting the stars reports from Treasury
and also to following up on that there's some very
rich and powerful people that need to go to jail.
I think everyone's been frustrated as to why that hasn't
(10:27):
happened before. But it is very much so possibility that
Jeffrey Epstein was an intelligence asset working for adversaries. But
also too, I think the questions that we have is
how much our own government know about it? And so
there's more to follow, and I'm sure you'll be hearing
from the chairman momentarily. But I do applaud the victims
from coming forward because we heard from a woman who
(10:49):
is as young as fourteen years old, and she was
victimized multiple times by Jeffrey Epstein. So it's hard to hear.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Okay, So that's pretty big stuff, right. He may have
been an inten intelligence asset. A lot of conspiracy theorists
were saying that he kind of seemed like the type
of guy who would be an intelligence asset. They're collecting
dirt off of, you know, high profile figures to use
for whatever purposes. If it's a celebrity, if it's a politician.
(11:17):
You know, there's a lot that you can do if
you have some really good blackmail on somebody. What exactly
they would be doing or who would be doing it,
nobody really knows for sure. But the fact that we
now have an elected official who supposedly being on the
Intelligence Committee, has intimate knowledge of this coming out and
saying this out loud to reporters. It's again not a
(11:42):
conspiracy theorist, but I am a conspiracy realist, all right.
It's hard not to look at this and think, Okay,
he was probably involved with some government which government. I
don't know, is it ours, is it somebody else's who's
she's saying, probably an adversary. I don't know. It could
have been an adversary. I can definitely see Russia saying, hey,
(12:02):
it would be great to be able to just completely
compromise any US official at any given time. What can
we do there? I don't know. I want to know
really badly. So again, we're going to be digging through
these Epstein files that we had in this drop. So
let this be your big teaser. All right, tune in
Sunday A seven. We'll see what we have. You don't
(12:23):
have time to dig through this all day. You just don't,
so tune in Sunday A seven, and I'll give you
the good stuff, all right, A M nine fifty KPRC
wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, enough of that we are,
let's get in some good Trump we're using the military
against cartels. Now I voted for this, all right, before
you ask, I did vote for this. So here's the
(12:44):
announcement from Trump on truth social Because why not, early
this morning, on my orders, this would have been Tuesday morning,
on my orders, US military forces conducted a kinetic strike
against positively identified Trende Arragua Narco terrorists in the South
Calm Area of Responsibility. TDA is a designated foreign terrorist
(13:05):
organization operating under the control of Nicholas Maduro, responsible for
mass murder, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, and acts of violence
and terror across the United States and the Western Hemisphere.
The strike occurred wild terrorists We're at sea and international
waters transporting illegal narcotics heading it to the United States.
The strike resulted in eleven terrorists killed in action. No
(13:26):
US forces were harmed in the strike. Please let this
serve as a notice to anybody thinking about bringing drugs
into the United States of America. Beware. Thank you for
your attention on this matter. I love how he ends
all of his posts with that. It's kind of become
like a little trump Ism. I like it. But again,
this is what we want. You want to know how
we bring down the drug crisis in America. The car
(13:48):
tells of the people bring in the drugs. Make sure
they know good and clear, if you're bringing in substances
illegally into the United States that will harm American citizens,
we are going to kill you. That's shit. That's the
hard truth. We are going to kill you, as we should.
The United States government has a moral duty to defend,
(14:08):
using force, if necessary, the lives and well being of
its citizens. If you're sneaking drugs into this country with
the purpose of killing Americans, or you just don't care
if they're kill Americans and we catch you, this is
the correct response. Create a crater where they used to be.
I'm not gonna play the video because I don't want
(14:29):
YouTube to flag me, but it's on Twitter. You can
fight here. I'll post it right now. Boom at Ethan
Buchanan underscore Ethan Buchanan on x You can see the
video right there. I just reposted it. Make a crater.
We will make a crator as we should. This is good.
This is good. This is how you stop tear us
from coming into this country. Here is Trump again talking
(14:50):
in a press conference on Tuesday about this strike again,
great strike. I watched the video. It's they're gone. That's it.
Here's Trump talking about it.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
When you come out and when you leave the room,
you'll see that we just over the last few minutes
literally shot out a boat, a drug carrying boat. A
lot of drugs in that boat. You'll be seeing that
and you'll be reading about that. It just tappened moments ago.
And our great General, head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
(15:24):
who's been so incredible, including what took place in Iran
knocking out potential nuclear power for a long time to come.
I think within a month they would have had it.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
We didn't do what we did, but.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
He gave us a little bit of a briefing and
you'll see, and there's more where that came from. We
have a lot of drugs pouring into our country, coming
in for a long time, and we just these came
out of Venezuela and coming out very heavily from Venezuela.
A lot of things are coming out of Venezuela. So
we took it out and you'll get to see that
(16:02):
after this meeting is over again.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
It kind of gives me peace through strength vibes. Right,
that's what this is. Speak softly and carry a big
stick doesn't just mean carry the big stick. You have
to be willing to use the big stick. And nobody
likes it when you use the big stick. We shouldn't
even like it when we use the big stick. We
(16:27):
don't use the big stick just to say, oh, look
at our big stick. We used it. No, this is
about protecting people. This is I don't know how many
drugs were in that boat. I know there were eleven
terrorists in it. I'm sure a lot of American lives
were saved by blowing it out of the water. I'm
positive of it. I guarantee it. This is what the
(16:48):
military should be for. We don't need to be going
around and playing world police on a global scale. But
those people were headed into the United States with the
purpose of hurting American citizens. It is a moral good
that the United States of America eliminated them before they
had a chance to do that. We should want more
(17:09):
of this, use our military resources to with great effectiveness.
I might add, protect the American people. That's what I want,
That's what I think most reasonable people want, and we'll
save American soldiers' lives by doing that. Do you know
how much risk our troops were at during that operation? Zero? None,
(17:30):
Because it's a bunch of illegal aliens on a skiff. Basically,
what are they going to do? Nothing? But if they
get to the United States, they can and will hurt
American citizens with those drugs. So I'm glad they got
taken out. Thank you very much for that. This good
Donald pat on the back fits bumps all around. More
of this, all right, We've got a lot more coming up.
We're going to talk about more safety measures that Trump
(17:52):
is undertaking in just a moment, so stay tuned. We
will be right back with more of the next jener
fort All right, let's talk a little bit more about
(18:20):
good Trump. We've had a lot of good Trump, which
is good. Now listen. I'm a political realist. I knew
Donald Trump was not going to be a perfect president,
because no president is, except maybe George Washington machine. We
love you, George, we missed you very much. But I
knew Donald Trump was going to have moments that I
(18:42):
didn't like. He's gonna do things that I don't like.
He already has. But that being said, he's done a
lot more things that I do like than things that
I don't. Okay, So I'm happy. He's not perfect. No
president is. I said that already. But he's pretty good.
He's pretty good. And one of the reasons I like
(19:04):
him so much right now is because of the cleanup efforts.
He is a law and order, practical president. He wants
America to be safe. He wants American cities to be safe,
and he's doing his part to make American cities safe.
Seventy five homeless camps in DC have been cleaned up
(19:24):
under the Trump administration. That is not a small number,
all right, it just isn't. And on top of that,
that's going to go a long way towards cleaning up DC,
just rooting out the homeless camps. I don't know how
much you know about the homeless or homeless camps, but
(19:48):
in my experience, and I have a lot, they are
often less sympathetic than I guess the media would want
you to believe. Oftentimes, there are homeless people that are
just out on their look they're good people, they're hard workers,
but things have gone wrong in their lives. Even more
often than that is they're homeless because they want to
(20:10):
be Either they're mentally ill, they're on drugs, or they
just don't want to have to deal with any rules whatsoever.
And if you're homeless, you're free. You can do whatever
you want whenever you want. Nobody cares, especially in left
wing cities. You can drop your pants and take a
crap on the sidewalk and nobody's gonna say a thing
about it. That's the sad reality of homelessness in America today.
(20:34):
So I have very little sympathy for homeless people because
I'm so jaded to them, again because of the years
of experience dealing with them that I've had. So anyway,
homeless encampments are not great places to be. I mean,
just for one thing, there's the drugs, and there's always
drugs one hundred percent of the time, all right. And
(20:56):
then it's the things that I talked about just a
minute ago, the drop your pants and just taking a dump.
That's common, it's not rare. We've all seen the meme
about the San Francisco poop map. All right, it's a
real thing. These are real problems. So as much as
you want to say, oh, we can't criminalize homelessness, Oh
this is so difficult. They just need help. No, they
(21:18):
don't need help. They need to be get off the streets.
That's what they need. Donald Trump is doing that. Federal
officials have cleared about seventy five homeless camps around the
nation's capital under President Trump's efforts to clean up Washington,
d C. And they're not done yet. United States park
police have removed dozens of tents since the President penned
(21:38):
the Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful Executive
Order in March. The Department of the Interior told The
Post on Friday, authorities have also scrubbed it to eighty
graffiti sites from Capitol Hill Parks as of August sixth.
Interior officials said, this is all good news. We're making
the city of Washington, DC safe again again. I said
(22:01):
this a couple of days ago on the show. I'll
say it again now. I might actually go visit Washington,
d C. Now I might. I'm not gonna do it
until I can do it and carry. If I can't
be armed when I go there, then I won't go there.
That's a general rule that I have for almost all
places I visit. But the way things are going right now,
(22:23):
I could see myself actually visiting Washington, d C. Which
is something that I swore I would never do. So
there we go. The left will tell you that this
is the worst thing ever. You'll hear this on mainstream
media all the time. How could Donald Trump do this?
It's taking over the city. It's an authoritarian fascist. What
are the actual residents? Even the Democrat mayor of Washington,
(22:46):
d C. I have to say she's actually having a
pretty good time right now here. She is actually thanking
Donald Trump for his efforts, and.
Speaker 6 (22:55):
We greatly appreciate the surge of officers that enhance what
MPD has been able to do in this city. The
most significant thing that we are highlighting today is the
(23:15):
area of crime that was most troubling for us in
twenty twenty three. Now we have driven it down over
the last years. But I'm gonna get my glasses now.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Let me stop it right there. You haven't driven it down.
You fudge the numbers. That's what's happened. We all know
that that's what happened. Crime hasn't changed, They just stopped
reporting it or changed how they report it to make
it look lower on the statistics. The crime was still
out of control, all right, But at least she's given
credit words due to Donald Trump and the Trump administration
(23:47):
for bringing more officers in to help solve that problem.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
So I can make sure I can see it correctly.
But for carjackings, the difference between this period, this twenty
day period of this federal surge and last year represents
a eighty seven percent reduction in carjackings in Washington, DC.
(24:12):
We know that when carjackings go down, when the use
of gun goes down, when homicide or robbery go down,
neighborhoods feel safer and are safer. So this surge has
been important to us for that reason.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
And Okay, this is great, this is good news, and
it says something that even the Democrat mayor, she is
a radical leftist by the way, don't lose sight of that.
She's just as crazy as the rest of them. But
even she is forced to come out and say, yeah, actually,
Donald Trump is helping us, and we appreciate it. It's
good to see. You have to love to see it.
(24:50):
Now Donald Trump is of course now talking about bringing
this same law enforcement effort to the city of Chicago
and the state of Illinois, which if you know, you
think about Chicago, we've all seen the jokes. You know,
they need it. They've got just as much crime as
anybody else. Violent crime too. It's a problem. Now they'll
(25:10):
swear up and down that it's not a problem that
these issues don't exist. They do just during the left.
Good grief, that's lot. Anyway, here's this cut of JB.
Pritzker talking about how much he doesn't need Donald Trump's help.
Just during the.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
Last week, I've been in neighborhoods across Chicago, from Bronsville
to southsh.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
The Governor of Illinois by the way.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Door to Chatham to Little Village. The President's absurd characterizations
do not match what is happening on the ground here.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
He has no idea what he's talking about.
Speaker 7 (25:45):
There is no emergency that warrants deployment of troops.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Okay, let me stop you right there. Yes the hell
there is nine killed fifty two wounded over Labor Day weekend,
most violent holiday weekend of the summer. If that's not
a crisis that warrants the troops, I don't know what is.
You're telling me that's the status quo. That's normal and
(26:11):
it's fine. Are you bonkers? Yes, send in the troops.
Are you kidding me? Nine killed, fifty two wounded over
Labor Day weekend. That's four days Saturday, Sunday, Monday, three
days Friday. Technically, if you count that as the weekend,
I don't know. It depends on how you judge it.
Friday night is the weekend, but Friday morning and afternoon
(26:32):
isn't it's weird, but that's maybe three days Saturday, Sunday Monday,
three days fifty two people shot, nine of them died.
Are you kidding me? And you don't want the President's help?
And it's not just Jabi Prisker saying this. Even the
(26:54):
mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, he also went out and said,
not only do we not want the president's help. If
the president's help comes, you should resist it. What do
you mean by that? Here?
Speaker 8 (27:09):
He is saying it, Oh, are you prepared to defend
this land? This land that was built by slaves, a
land that was built by indigenous people?
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Okay, what is this nonsense? Sorry, I'm gonna take a
brief intermission here. Every single time there's something going on
that the Democrats don't like, they immediately jumped to the
fact that America was built by slaves and indigenous people.
It freaking wasn't what are you talking about? And also
what does that have to do with the crime rates?
Because that's the topic here, A land.
Speaker 8 (27:42):
That is built by workers. Are you prepared to defend
this land? The people united will always prevail. I need
you all to stand firm, to stand strong if this
president decides to continue to break this constitute.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
So what is he talking about? What is he calling
for here? Because it seems like that's kind of like
a call to arms, right, like he wants people to
go and resist a crime crackdown. What are you talking about.
We're sitting here saying, hey, maybe less people should be
murdered over the holiday weekend in Chicago, and you're saying, no,
(28:23):
we have to resist because this city was built by
indigenous slaves or what have you.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
No, keep rolling with this, Go for it. Let this
be your message going into the twenty twenty six midterms. Please,
I beg of you. I beg of you. Do this
and let me know how it works out for you,
because I guarantee you it won't go the way you want. Also,
there's legitimate questions to be asked about whether or not
he's inciting violence with that speech. I don't know. We'll see. Anyway.
(28:55):
We got a lot more coming up states, and we'll
be right back here. All right, let's talk about Texas
(29:20):
here for a minute. What do we got going on.
We had a bunch of bills from the legislature go
into effect monday, I guess technically, so if you don't
know how it works. Every odd year, the Texas legislature
(29:41):
meets to pass bills in Austin. Most of those bills,
usually barring some special circumstance, go into effects that following
September first. So we just had a September first, after
a legislative session. So we've got some bills that have
gone into effect this via the Texan Here's what we
got in effect as of Monday, the Senate's budget for
(30:04):
Texas providing school choice, placing the Ten Commandments in school
that's a good one. We want that. This is controversial,
and it shouldn't be. You don't have to be a
religious Christian to recognize the value of the Ten Commandments. Hey,
don't murder, don't steal, and don't lust after your neighbor's wife.
Those are all pretty good general principles for anybody, and
(30:28):
they're the basis of basically our entire legal system. Whether
you like it or not, the Ten Commandments do have
a place in Texas public life and American overall. Protecting
the freedom to pray in schools, this is good. We
need this. Yes, freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.
Establishing a parental bill of rights in public education. That's good.
More parental oversight is always nice. Guarding against inappropriate books
(30:51):
in public schools. This is the type of stuff that
we've seen that like, oh, the kids need to learn
about gay sex, So here's a children's book with gay
sex comments in it. I'm not kidding. That's actually happened.
I'm not exaggerating. This is a real problem. Uh Texas doge.
That's nice. Removing barriers to housing affordability. I don't know
(31:13):
what that means. That could potentially be a red flag
if it's more government overreach, But if it's cutting regulation,
then I like it. Stopping for an adversary land grabs.
This is one that Jin Wu is very upset about.
Gen Wu, if you don't know, is a Asian American
Chinese American. Oh gosh, where is it here? He is
(31:36):
very upset about this particular bill being passed and going
into effect. And listen to how he characterizes this bill,
and then we'll dig into the actual reality of what
this bill is and does. Take aalism.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
It's saying that all Chinese immigrants, all of these immigrants
are automatically suspect because.
Speaker 9 (31:54):
Of the way they were born, where they were born.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
That's unacceptable.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
This is a a concept that we've taken up over
one hundred years ago. It was unconstitutional and illegal.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
Then it's unconstitutional illegal.
Speaker 6 (32:07):
Now it's saying that.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Okay, first of all, that's not what the bill is saying.
It's not saying that no Chinese immigrant can buy your
own land. It's a patent lie. He's lying there, that's
what he's doing. Now. I feel like I can speak
on this to a certain degree because I do have
a Chinese wife. So he's saying all Chinese or all
(32:29):
Asian immigrants are suspects because of where they've come from. Okay,
let me stop right there. Any person that's you know,
a born and raised, died in the wools CCP Chinese
person should be a little bit suspect. Because here's the
reality that nobody wants to talk about. The Chinese government,
which is a communist adversarial government, has an extreme level
(32:51):
of control over its citizens. It just does. Basically, every
single nationally Chinese person is essentially an arm of the state,
and that includes their companies, their businesses, everything, because that's
how communist dictatorships run, and that's what China is. We
don't want those people buying our farmland. We don't because
(33:13):
they've proven that they're on trustworthy with it. There's a
number of cases of Chinese nationals sneaking bioweapons into the
United States, trying to spy on the United States, trying
to sneak data and information out of the United States.
These people are not trustworthy, all right. I'm saying this
as a person with a Chinese wife. I trust her.
(33:33):
She's fine mostly most of the fine. Sometimes I'm just like, hey,
what are you doing. No, I'm kidding, that's a joke.
I love my wife. She's very trustworthy. She was raised
here in America, she's an American, however, she was born
in China. Anyway, there are demonstratable security risks to allowing
Chinese nationals to just buy up huge amounts of American land,
(33:57):
and that's what this bill prevents. Since Bob on X,
if you're not following him, you should, by the way,
Oh I'm not there. I am. I see him all
the time, just because he and I and Kenny Webster
all interact with each other a lot. But he's a
great follow He's had his own handful of run ins
with Jean Wu. He did a really good job of
clarifying what this bill actually does. Chinese citizens who have
(34:18):
not attained citizenship in the US, that's who's barred from
buying land. I would say it should go even farther
and say, if you're a Chinese national, if you have
Chinese citizenship, you should not be allowed to buy land
in the US. Because I'm a security hawk, but I'll
take this, And then the same goes for North Korean's,
Iranians and Russians. These are all nations that pose a
(34:42):
security risk and are frankly dictatorships, and we cannot trust
their nationals. We just can't. It would be foolish too,
all right. So he's very upset about this because why
wouldn't he be. I don't know. We've also got a
bill that failed that I think is very uh, it's
worth talking about. So we had this big quorum break.
(35:04):
Stop these pause stop all right, it's not stopping, So
we're gonna mute it, all right. So we had this
quorum break, and we need to stop having these. This
has become the go to strategy for the Democrats whenever
there's a bill they want to block but they don't
have the votes to block it, which is all the time.
(35:24):
Because they're an extreme minority in the Texas House, they
just leave. They don't have enough Democrats to actually win
a vote, but they have enough Democrats to walk out
and stop the voting entirely. So we have a bill
now to stop this. It failed, it didn't pass, but
here's some of the debate on it. And this Democrat
(35:44):
is very upset that this bill would have allowed Democrats
who flee and break quorum to be arrested and brought
back to Austin. Take as they can do the arrest
by force.
Speaker 9 (35:57):
They can go to the members home compel them to come.
If they don't, they can guide the member back to
the to the to the floor.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Does it say member, will you please come with us?
Speaker 9 (36:07):
Or is it.
Speaker 6 (36:09):
You know, grabbing the member by the arm and pulling
them to their car.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
What is the force you.
Speaker 9 (36:16):
Might have to grab a member by the arm and
bring them to the into the vehicle and transport them
here for.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
The civil arrest. Yes, and so you're authorizing use of force.
Speaker 9 (36:28):
You can already do that.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
They can. So I want to talk to you for
a second about how they phrased this. I mean, look
at this tweet from the House Democrats. Rep. Nicole Collier
forced them to admit they're authorizing physical force to grab members.
You didn't force. He was happy to admit it. You
could see it in the video. He wasn't trying to
hide that fact. He was very open and like he
(36:50):
points out, you can already do this. Just because it's
a civil arrest doesn't mean you're not allowed to use force.
You can use force in a civil arrest. That's allowed,
and it should be used here. You swore an oath
as a representative in the Texas House of Representatives to
do the job right. There's a duty there. There's something
(37:14):
you have to accomplish. You don't just get to sit
there and get on camera ban look at me. I'm
a state rep. There's actually a job that you are
obligated to do by the constitution of the State of Texas,
and you swore you were going to do it. So
if you start to try to break that oath, there
should be consequences for that. You should be brought back.
I don't know why this is suddenly controversial to say.
(37:36):
If you put your hand on a Bible or a
Quran or whatever it is, these people are signing, swearing
oaths to these days, you should be made to uphold
that oath. You should be by force if necessary, especially
when what you're doing is impeding the important work of
the state. You don't get to just get away with
(37:57):
doing whatever you want because you're an elected official. Again,
out of jail free card is not a do whatever
you want card. You have an obligation fulfill it. That's
not controversial, or if it is, it shouldn't be all right,
And they're so pretentious. Force him to admit this is
an assault on your representation. No, it's an assault on
your failure to do your job, which is what I
(38:19):
think most people want. But anyway, I think that's all
I've got. That's all i've got time for at least.
