Speaker 1 (00:01):
You are entering the freedom hunt. Crazy libs want Attorney
General bar to resign. Plus, why is the whistleblower's name
being censored from YouTube? What's going on with Minnie Mike Bloomberg?

(00:24):
Can he buy the presidency? And should you recline your
seat on an airplane? Or is that just uncivilized? Coming up?
This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or
mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.
Make no mistake American. Let me bring you're a great

(00:44):
American again. The Buck Sexton Show begins analyst. He's a
great guy now, But I tell you what people were
hurting viciously and badly by these corrupt people. And I
want to thank if you look at what happened. I

(01:05):
want to thank the Justice Department for seeing this horrible thing.
And I didn't speak to him, by the way, just
so you understand, they saw the horribleness of a nine
year sentence for doing nothing. You have murders and drug addicts.
They'll get nine years, nine years for doing something that
nobody even can define what he did. The Germany said
he put out a tweet, and the tweet you're based

(01:27):
on that we have killers We have murders all over
the place, nothing happens, and then they put a man
in jail and destroy his life, his family, his wife,
his children, nine years in jail. It's a disgrace. In
the meantime, Komey walks around making book deals. The people
that launched the scam investigation and what they did is

(01:49):
a disgrace and hopefully it'll be treated fairly. Everything else
would be treated him. Welcome to the buck Section show
the President and Fuego telling the truth about what has
really been going on here. Let's just step back for
a moment before I dig into the details of the
Rogerstone sentencing issue and how there's more unfairness there than

(02:11):
you've probably even heard of yet. How are we supposed
to feel about a justice system in this country that
somehow allowed for the investigation of a presidential campaign using
highly sensitive counter espionage tools at the very top reaches
of the federal law enforcement and intelligence bureaucracy, to lie

(02:36):
about that investigation, to continue it, as we know they
did with the Fizer renewals on carter Page, to use
fake information which we know the dossier is paid for
by an opposition political campaign, the Hillary Clinton DNC using
foreign sources, that we're probably running what the Russians called

(02:57):
disinvormatzia disinformation. How is it that the only people in
this process when you stretch out Russia collusion, this great conspiracy,
the biggest political scandal of my lifetime, and the scandal
is in the other guys were wrong all along. The
other guys, the Democrats, the anti Trumpers, they got the

(03:19):
whole thing wrong. They lied, cheated, and stole whatever they
had to do to keep this thing going. They thought
they were going to topple a presidency with this, It's
gonna be Watergate. But they're the burglars in this tale.
They don't yet recognize that that's the way history will
view them, although we always know the Libs like to
rewrite history. That's what's going on here. And the only people,

(03:41):
somehow in all of us who get in trouble, the
only individuals who find themselves on the wrong side of
a federal prosecutor in all this are Republicans, people close
to Trump. That's it. Coomy, no charges, McCabe, light under
oath as black and white. A criminal issue is you're

(04:03):
going to find anywhere Roger Stone's in trouble for lying
to Congress. McCabe led under oath, same principle, same kind
of law. CABE's not going to prison. As a former
acting FBI director of Friends, Peter Struck fired no charges
against him, no official misconduct. They could they could absolutely
slam that guy with an official misconduct charge. And keep

(04:24):
in mind the left sometimes pushes prosecutions for political reasons
that they know they can't win. But to prosecute is
to attack. To prosecute is to destroy, maybe not fully,
because you may not get the verdict you want, as
we just saw with the Democrat Congress going after Donald Trump,
but it was still an assault. It was still an

(04:45):
ongoing ambush trying to slow down, trying to harm this presidency.
So then you have to ask yourself, huh, why is
it that on our side we only prosecute if we
know there's no escape. For the other side, there's no
way they'd be able to mount any kind of successful defense.
And even then sometimes we back away from it because
on the right we like to think that we show

(05:07):
good faith and there are bigger considerations sometimes than punishing
wrongdoers who are Democrats. I don't know why we continue
to live in that fantasy lend, but we do on
the right, we don't seem to really ever prosecute. To
keep in mind, there's nothing stopping I know that this
is going to sound crazy to people, but I am correct.
There's nothing stopping the Department of Justice from reopening the

(05:31):
Hillary Clinton email case if they wanted to. I mean,
there's nothing statutorially that prevents them from doing that. They
certainly could have done it over the last three years.
But we don't do that. Why Because we're Republicans, we're conservatives.
We want the country to continue functioning. We don't want
to rip it apart at the seams. Whether you agree
with this or not, I'm just saying this is the mentality. Meanwhile,

(05:53):
the left is like, hey, can we lie and get
stuff into a FISA application to mic up somebody who
touches on the Trump campaign. Maybe see if there's anybody
else talking to someone else that we can look at
their emails too. Shameless, shameless, unrepentant. To this day, they
act like that was all justified. They spied on a

(06:14):
presidential campaign. They keep saying that Attorney General bar is
Trump's hatchet man. He's a bad guy. Attorney General bar
was already the attorney general under the George HW. Bush administration.
He's already had this job. Was anyone saying that he was, Oh,
he was a total you know, a bad man for
Bush then, and he can't be trusted and he's corrupt

(06:37):
and he's been bought and all this stuff. No, but
suddenly he's just Trump's lackey and has no credibility. They've
tried to say he's dumb, which is hilarious. He's a
better lawyer than every psycho lib lawyer they've put forward
to make cases against Trump, whether it's impeachment or Russia collusion.
He'd crush any of them in open debate. But yeah,

(07:00):
they also didn't realize that he was the head of
the Office of Legal Counsel in the Department of Justice,
which makes policy for the rest of the Department of Justice.
That was before he was Attorney general. You cannot get
more gold standard for a government legal resume than the
city attorney General does not exist. You know what Eric
Holder was most famous for it before he became Attorney general,
overseeing the disgraceful but legal pardon of Democrat financier Mark

(07:25):
Rich who was doing business with Iran when it was
or was it Libya. I think it was a Ron
or Libya, one of those two countries when it was
under sanction and fled the country, never faced justice, but
his super rich wife wrote big checks to Democrats, so
he basically bought a pardon. Eric Holder signed off on that.
Even Eric Holder today says, yeah, that was pretty gross.
So that was Obama's attorney general for most of his term.

(07:49):
And then you had Lauretta Lynch, who, as we know,
just had the fortuitous circumstance of right before the decision
was going to be made about what was going to
happen to then Democrat nominee for the president and expected
next president in the United States, Hillary Clinton, would she
faced criminal charges, by the way, any criminal charge of

(08:10):
any kind would have sunk her presidential hopes. We know
that didn't have to go to prison for decades. Even
if she took a guilty plea, she probably would have
been done and no jail time probation. I've said you,
I'm honest. Everyone else is, oh, she'd go to prison
forever for the Espionage Act. That's not true. But she
should have had to take a guilty plea for mishandling
classified and probably get, you know, a six month suspended
sentence and probation. But she should have had to take

(08:33):
a criminal charge for mishandling classified. That's reality. But we're
supposed to believe that Loretta Lynch had a meeting on
a tarmac with Bill Clinton, that their private planes just
happened to line up on a lot of airports, a
lot of planes in the sky, right before the determination
is going to be made, right before Cam goes forward
and gives his speech. Yeah, uh, Democrats must think we're

(08:55):
all really stupid, don't they Like, we can't figure out
what's going on here? My friends, this is all absurd,
and we know that we understand that we see what's
going on here. They keep playing dirty and then accusing
us of playing dirty when the biggest problem that we
have when it comes to the justice system as conservatives,
as Trump supporters is we still have principles, and that

(09:19):
means that we don't have the same latitude of operation
that the other side does. They'll just do whatever, no,
it doesn't matter how blatant is. And that now brings
me to this Roger Stone issue, and we might have
my friend Annie McCarthy on to fill in some of
the some of the blanks on this one. Tomorrow give
us a little bit more of his analysis. I mean,
you know, he's always he's somebody who is fair to

(09:39):
this system but also sees things for what they are.
You know, he believes in the system. He believes in
the doj I'm I'm getting closer and closer to just like,
just tear it, just tear it down and start fresh,
you know, nuke the planet from orbit. It's the only
way to be the only way to be sure what
movie producer brand And by the way, I got producer
branded in today. For a producer, our producer market has

(10:00):
to take a couple of personal days. Do you know
a movie? Oh, he didn't even hear. Don't worry about that.
Don't wry about that. You can interrupt the flow of
the monologue. Now, producer bread that. It's fine, don't worry
about it. We'll ask you things later. It is Aliens
for those of you who did not know, but I'm
sure most of you knew. Great movie. By the way
I get into arguments is whether Aliens a better movie
than T two? With people that are James Cameron fans,

(10:21):
it's a conversation for another time you're in the Freedom Hunt.
This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. So now
we're at the stage of what happened with the Rogerstone
the Rogerstone sentencing. Now, the guidelines that were given, the

(10:44):
guidelines that were given by the federal prosecutors were technically allowed,
but it also was very clear that they took the
most negative interpretation possible and applied the most negative interpretation
to get the you know, a very extreme end of
the range. Now that judge is the one who determines,
not the prosecutors. The federal judge presiding over the case

(11:04):
determines what the actual sentence would be. But I do
think that it's I've been very clear about this. It
is absurd. I don't even care what the guidelines say.
I don't care what the statutes say that Roger Stone
could even theoretically go to prison for nine years federal prison.
By the way, no parole, you serve the sentence you
get in federal prison. People have always forget that. They're like, oh,
well they'll be out and no, no, no. If you

(11:25):
get five years in federal prison, you go to federal
prison for five years. It's not like state prisons where
you know, you can get a seven year sentence, and
you know, with two years could behavior all of a
sudden you're walking around the street. The reality is that
it's it's an affront to our conscience. That Stone, who
you guys all know, I think is a pretty entertaining character.

(11:46):
I've talked to him a bunch of times. He's very amusing.
He's fund to exchange startorial tips with him. But Stone
is I asked him once if you if you need
to wear a belt with a suit, and he said,
absolutely are what are we sat? Iages you must wear
a belt with a suit. You know, It's like, oh yes, sir,
of course. I thought you could kind of get away
with no belt with the suit. But Roger Stone set

(12:08):
me straight. Set me straight a long time ago on
that one. So Rogers facing nine years in federal prison
according to whatever the well, based on what the judge
decides to do with it. And people get upset about this.
Trump tweets about it, and now he's been very public.
We started out the show with him saying the DJ
did the right thing by saying, okay, that's this was crazy.

(12:30):
The perception here does matter, the perception of whether Stone
is being treated fairly matters. And you have to also
remember in this whole process that there is the left
and the anti trumpers are invested in as many prosecutions
and as long a sentence as they can get for
two reasons. One spite, if you work for Trump, if

(12:52):
you're near Trump, they hate you, and that's the main reason.
But the second reason is that then they do this
thing you've seen the Mattaw's show on MSNBC on c AU.
They'll have people that'll just rack and stack all the
criminal prosecutions. This became a big talking point, Oh, look
at all the criminal prosecutions out of the Russia collusion probe,

(13:13):
as though that justifies that the probe was all based
in a lie. The probe was a farce, The probe
was wrong. It never should have happened. Without the dossier,
they don't even get to the probe stage. But they
rack up all these different names of people that are
going to prison for line to investigators and some form
of personal financial fraud, tax evasion, money laundering, etc. But

(13:36):
it has nothing to do with Russia collusion. So they
want yet another person, oh, Trump associate Roger Stone linked
to the Russia collusion that didn't happen linked to the
Russia collusion case, gets you know, six years, seven years
whatever it is in federal prison. See, we were right
all along to be doing that investigation. No, they're they're

(13:59):
fined process crimes and relentlessly hounding people, ruining them, bankrupting
them because Libs have completely lost their minds. So that's
a big part of this. And then when you see
the federal prosecutors who pulled the Sally Yates maneuver. Oh,
I'm I'm leaving the government because I'm so ethical. Give

(14:19):
me a CNN contract. I want to go work for MSNBC.
I mean, this is what they do now. Oh Trump
is such a monster. Where's my book deal? This is
what the hashtag resistance does. This is how they conduct themselves.
We all know this. But you have these prosecutors who
have all well, they've they've resigned from the case. I
think a few of them have resigned entirely from the DOJ.
So some of them have resigned from the DOJ. And

(14:41):
you look at their resumes and these are people who,
first of all, and I note this, three of the
four I think clerked for Supreme Court judges. Guess which
Supreme Court judges. They clerked for huge libs Stevens suitor
yoh yeah, oh yeah, big big surprise there, right, no
Scalia clerking going on, no Thomas clerking on the resume. Nope,

(15:04):
they clerked for big libs. We know they're huge libs.
One of them was a senior DJ appointing under the
Obama administration. Another one was very involved in prosecuting the
Muller was part of the Muller pro part of the
Muller team, and one of them was involved with going
after Papadopolis. Essentially oversaw that, Yeah, that's really that. That
was justice send Papadopolis to fourteen days in prison for

(15:25):
lying about something that he might have misremembered and that
meant nothing. That seems fair, right. That's that's what the
left does. They've convinced themselves that they're the good guys,
and whoever they can destroy on the other side, that's justified.
That's why. Yeah, is Trump is Trump kind of you know,
talking out of turn here a little bit on the DOJ.
Shouldn't do this, Yeah, But all the people that are

(15:46):
crying to you right now about how Trump shouldn't speak
about the DOJ and he's he's affecting the impartiality of
the institution and that this is so wrong, and all
those other all of those people, you should ask the question,
where were they when Obama said on National TV that
Hillary didn't didn't actually endanger national security with her emails.

(16:10):
She didn't mean to do it, and basically she didn't
do anything wrong. There's nothing to see here. His Department
of Justice was then investigating a case of a Secretary
of State who was sending highly classified and including Special
Access program data on an open email server, not a
classified server. Any other person who's work in the government
would tell you this would be you would assume you're

(16:31):
gonna you You're gonna end up in federal prison for
a while if you did this. But she was Secretary
of State and the Democrats needed her to try to
win the presidency. So Obama can speak out about that,
and that's fine. Why is that fine? Oh, because he's
Obama and because they're Democrats, and because they have no principles,
they only have double standards. Okay, I'm glad that we
can establish that right away, because the people that are

(16:51):
all upset now about Trump's saying that the dj needed
to reiin this thing in they were not upset when
the Obama administration, in fact President Obama himself publicly weighed
in on how there should be no charges against Hillary Clinton.
You could call that undue election interference, couldn't you. Well,
this is where this is where we are. And so

(17:11):
now they've created yet they need another outrage story because
they're done with Rush a collusion right now, they're trying
to find how to resurrect it. Acquittal in the Senate trial.
Then they didn't remove Trump from office. Impeachment helped Trump,
you know, the idiots and the Democrats side I thought
that was going to ruin him. Didn't know what they
were talking about. So now what they do, Oh, they
got to remove bar The Department of Justice is under

(17:34):
so much assault. Can't handle the strain from a guy
who is a gold standard d J longtimer who just
happens to be hated by the left. In Attorney General
bar hated, viciously despised by the Democrats and the left
because he knows this game. They can't scare him and
he's not going to back down. The could you imagine,

(17:57):
by the way, if I'm just gonna say, if we
had if you would have had Attorney General Bar instead
of Jeff Sessions. And I do not dislike Jeff Sessions.
He's a nice man, and I think he's an honorable guy.
He's just not a fighter. He's just not a street fighter,
you know. You know, let's say about people you got,
like a friend who you know, say he's a lover,
not a fighter, and just means he's not the guy
you wanted. You're back in a bar when things get ugly.

(18:18):
You know, Sessions is a nice guy. If Barr had
been Trump's Attorney general from from day one, there wouldn't
have been a Russia collusion probe wouldn't have happened. There
would have been it would have been an investigation of
Russian online in or you know, online propaganda efforts in
an interference. Sure wouldn't have been this whole Trump collusion
lie on all the obstruction garbage piled on top of it.

(18:41):
So personnel, personnel is policy. People say personnel mattered. Trump's
gotten a few of the right ones in the in
the right places now, but took way too long to
get there. You're in the freedom hud. This is the
Buck Sexton Show podcast. Last night, I think I said

(19:03):
on air that you know, the Washington Post says democracy
dies in darkness. It actually doesn't. It dies some television.
It dies right under the lights of you know, the
bright of day. Um. I mean, this is an institutions
and justice that's right and with people not doing something.
And understand, right now we should all be called for
the Attorney General to resign. What bar has done should

(19:27):
mean that we are demanding a resignation and if that
guy won't resign, then the House should start impeachment proceedings
against him. Impeach Bar. Oh, here we go. What did
I folk? What did I tell you? You You know, I
W've been saying all week, they're looking they're looking for
another They're looking for another removal proceeding, another weaponization of

(19:50):
the process. And here we are, here, we are now
with them doing what they do, which is to say,
they've come up with some looney tunes explanation of why
the Attorney General of the United States needs to be
removed from office. They've decided that the Attorney General here

(20:14):
is a guy that they should go and have a
you know, have a removal proceeding with the House calling witnesses.
The whole thing. The whole thing all because any distraction
from the disarray of the Democratic Party right now is
a good thing. Any distraction from what the Democrats are

(20:35):
really trying to do and trying to accomplish in terms
of the people they have running for elected office, that's
just that's great. They should be very happy about that.
They should be very very pleased because they don't really
have that. They want just the Democrat primary voters to
be figuring this thing out while the rest of the
country swing voters independents are focused on the removed. By

(20:57):
the way, this is not going to happen. I mean,
this is ridiculous, and I would just note that it
would be entertaining to watch them try to explain why
Attorney General bar should be removed, because he's just going
to say, I didn't I didn't make this. You know,
I didn't violate any law. What's I didn't violate any
any DJ policy. The president spouts off, that's not my problem,

(21:18):
but why you're going to remove the attorney general, and
that they would claim that you have Democrats now saying
that you should have Attorney General bar consider removing himself,
but you you did not have the even recusal, never
mind removal proceedings initiated against Lauretta Lynch just goes to

(21:39):
show you that this is all they just they view
all of this as scoring points for their team against
the other team. Whenever they talk about institutions and our
sacred democracy and all this other stuff, you can just
just just cast that aside. That's just nonsense. It doesn't mean,
it doesn't mean anything to them. It doesn't mean anything
to them. They're they're saying that as a distraction and

(22:01):
as a smoke screens, as a tactic of weaponizing process
against the other. In this case, as we know, the
other would be Democrats. I'm sorry, Republicans. Rather, I want
to talk to you about the situation here with Mike Bloomberg,
because I do find this fascinating. So let's dive into that.

(22:22):
Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember
to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or
wherever you get your podcasts. I'm very concerned that the
independence of prosecutors, the ability of judges at just weigh
the facts and the evidence is erotium. That the president
has taken a wrecking ball to that, and he was

(22:43):
just impeached for that. We're not going to stop holding
him accountable. We've learned when you hold him accountable, you
can actually stop the corruption, whether he's removed or not.
And ultimately it's going to be for the voters to
judge in November. Might you impeach him over this? Over
Roger Stone in the sentence, You know, we're not going
to take our options off the table. We don't wake
up in the morning wanting to impeach him. You know,

(23:04):
we want to work with him on primperships and drugs,
background checks and infrastructure. But we're not going to let
him just, you know, torch this democracy because he thinks
that he's been let off once and we're not going
to do something about him. Oh yeah, maybe they'll impeach
him about this thing too. They'll impeach the president. Never
mind bar you know, impeachment, impeachment. Impeachment has a replaced Russia, Russia, Russia.
They just can't make a good argument. Their argument right

(23:25):
now is, oh, yeah, let's put a crazy socialist in charge.
Even Democrats realize that's probably not a winning strategy. I
think they know this. I think they have They've started
to come to this on understanding but I want to
just switch gears here for a moment and tell you
about what I'm reading about the Bloomberg campaign. Now here's

(23:46):
the thing. Bloomberg is not an exciting politician. No one
sits around and they're like, you know, Mayor Bloomberg is
really good to save the country. No one thinks that
Mayor Bloomberg is dynamic, is charismatic or charming or any
of those things. A lot of the president keeps making
fun of his height. I think he's like five eight,

(24:07):
which is like normal height, like standard average height. So yeah,
Producer Brandon is like telling me, he's for you five eight,
How tall are you? Five six? Okay, but you know,
like five eight five six, this is this is how
tall people are fun size. Yeah. So I don't know.
I don't know why Trump's gotta go go go with
the height thing all the time. I don't know. There's

(24:28):
other you know, low energy, crooked. These are things that
I you know, I don't know, I think. But calling
him little Marco, I know it was about hype, but
it was about more than height. It was about his
lack of real political stature more than his physical stature.
When he remember with Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio tried to
go after Trump and tried to try to take the
gloves off, and it was did not go well for

(24:49):
little Marco. But now you have Trump facing off against Bloomberg,
and here's what they're getting. They're saying nasty stuff about
each other. Which the egos here, Let's be honest, These
egos are titanic, and both guys Titanic egos. And you
have Trump who's saying this about Bloomberg. Play seventeen. Please,

(25:15):
he's practically crying, saying what a horrible thing he did.
I think that's so disingenuous. You know what I'm talking about, Fellas,
that was so a Bloomberg. Look, he's a lightweight. He's
a lightweight. You're going to find that out. He's also
one of the worst debaters I've ever seen, and his
presence is zero. So he'll spend his three, four or

(25:36):
five hundred million dollars maybe they will take it away. Frankly,
I'd rather run against Bloomberg than Bernie Sanders because Sanders
has real followers. Whether you like him or not, whether
you agree with him or not. I happen to think
it's terrible what he says, but he has followers. Bloomberg's
just buying his way in. But we're going to find
out what happens. We're going to find out. But when

(25:58):
you watch, go back to the chair where he apologized
for everything he ever did practically, and he looked pathetic.
Our country doesn't need that kind of leadership. A president's
assaults here on Bloomberg, I think is spot on. There
were some conservatives, including some whom I like very much,
who immediately I think maybe they got caught up in

(26:20):
attacking Bloomberg is helpful to Trump, so they just attacked
without really thinking through that. Bloomberg's tape, the one that
I played for you, played for you on the air,
that's just someone speaking honestly about criminal justice in New
York City, and as I told you, ended up saving hundreds,
if not thousands of predominantly minority lives in this city.
And you shouldn't back down from that. You could say,

(26:42):
maybe tonally I was a little bit off, but I
stand behind you. Know, yeah, you should put more police
in higher crime neighborhoods. And when more police are in
higher crime neighborhoods, and those higher crime neighborhoods are overwhelmingly minority.
That means there'll be more minorities arrested, it means there'll
be more minority con with law enforcement. But it also
means more minorities can go to work and stay in

(27:04):
their homes and run their businesses in safety and security.
And that's the ultimate purpose of that police presence. That's
what you say. You don't you don't run away from
the woke, the woke squad right away, which is what
Bloomberg did. All of a sudden, He's gonna, oh, I'm sorry,
I shouldn't have done it, and you know, I'm trying
to I sound a little bit like Bloomberg, but he's

(27:26):
you know, he's almost like too boring to impersonate. It's
kind of all it's sort of all you know, he
has like a little bit of this, and it's like
he's he doesn't really want to have to talk to you,
but like, all right, fine, Like can I just pay
someone else to talk to you? Please? Like I'm worth
like a hundred bajillion dollars and I just I don't

(27:47):
really you know that that's kind of Bloomberg. That's kind
of what you get. This smart guy. He's not a
charismatic guy. But when Trump says that he's trying to
buy his way in usually this is a talking point
or from for mostly from Democrats, who say, oh, money
in politics and remember sorroast money good, coke money bad? Right? Uh,

(28:11):
the way the way the Libs frame it, you know,
Bezos owning the Washington Post good, murroc owning Fox News bad.
This This is the way. This is the formulation. It's
not rooted in anything other than they like their team.
They don't like the other team. It's just true. You know,
some billionaires are great because they fund far left calls.
You know Tom Stier pushing all that money for impeachment.

(28:33):
By the way, Trump should send him a nice fruit basket,
you know, a nice bottle of sustainably farmed organic you know,
non sulfate free trade wine or something, if that's I
don't know if that's a thing, but it probably could
be now. By the way, I might start a fight
later with all of you about whether or not is
dry age really worth the extra price. I don't know,

(28:54):
for for for red meat. I've been going back and
forth on this. I don't know that'll come up. I
got to talk about the perfect Valentine's Day stake. That'll
be a fun part of the show. So all right,
So Bloomberg is being accused of buying his way in
or that that's what people are saying. And here's the
thing about that, it's true. He is he actually is
buying his way in. He's not a rich guy who

(29:17):
uses some of his own money and is raising a
lot of them. He's not taking any to it. He's
just he's just writing checks. And he has a pretty
substantial media apparatus, Bloomberg News behind him, pushing him and
pushing other Democrats, and the stories I'm reading about this,
I gotta say, it's pretty amazing, you know, one of
the one of the I wouldn't say it's a regret.

(29:38):
It would have been fun if I when I were younger,
I went in the CIA, and you can't work in
the CIA and be in a campaign. So there really
wasn't a time in my life as an adult when
I realistically could have been doing m campaign work. I mean,
I think maybe you can do it on your own.
I don't know what the hatch Ack rules say about it,
but I mean I was busy trying to kill terrorists,
and by kill terrorists. I mean, write the memos about

(29:59):
how they bad and how the elite military that I
was working with would actually go get the bad guys.
But nonetheless I didn't really have time or the or
the ability to work on you to meaningful to do
full time campaign work. That's really what I'm talking about.
And you see these people out there who are very young,

(30:21):
who are doing they're doing these interviews about the Bloomberg campaign.
You're finding twenty three and twenty four year old campaign
staffers who expect to make on an annual basis about
thirty thousand dollars a year maybe, And keep in mind

(30:41):
that that's if it goes for twelve months. So you
gotta do the math on what they're actually making month
to month, because the moment your campaign ends, you're done, right,
the money stops. Bloomberg is paying twenty some odd year
old political organizers like people that are very very much
the grunts, you know, the ground forces of his ground

(31:03):
game in politics, six seventh, six or seven thousand dollars
a month, yeah, and is guaranteeing people that and this
is a big point that I want to go on
and return to. It is guarantee that they will be
able to do this through the election. So if you
go work for Bloomberg right now, you not only get

(31:24):
about double or really a little over double what you
would expect to make in the course of working on
a political campaign, you are guaranteed that until November, so
basically close to through the you know, through almost the
end of the year, and they'll I'm sure they'll pay
those people through November and December, and they'll give them

(31:44):
some severance or something because it's Bloomberg. I mean, the
guy's walking around just you know, just just ripping one
hundred dollar bills at everybody. It's crazy. This means that
he's able to buy a ground game, he's able to
buy an army, a political army. That's what that is
what he's doing. He's actually doing it. This is not
just a you know, Democrats all money in politics and

(32:07):
all this stuff. No, no, this is this is a
real thing that's happening. I mean, produce your brand that
if someone came up to you and said, hey, we
want we want to pay you six thousand dollars a
month guaranteed from now till November, they'll be basically no
oversight over what you're doing whatsoever. Just do your best
to do some political organizing. And you get to work
in a super fancy headquarters right in Times Square, and

(32:30):
they're going to bring in catered food every day for you,
three meals a day, including they spent I think forty
thousand dollars in one month on I think that was
what it was on sushi. I would highly consider it.
You would consider it, right, I mean you prefer the
Freedom Hut, of course. But you know this is a
lot of money you had sold halfway, right, I mean,
this is a good this is a good setup, is

(32:50):
a good deal. Let's imagine you didn't have a gig
at all, right now, right, someone says to you, Look,
imagine I didn't have a gig. Someone says, go work
in the Bluebird campaign. We'll pay you six g's a month,
cover all your food expenses throughout the day. And basically
no one expects you to win. So just like, do
whatever you want. It sounds great, right, sounds like a
free ride. Look, this is no one's ever done this.

(33:11):
This is an experiment that's never been run before. You
know you had you know, Jeb Bush, please clap raised
or spent one hundred million dollars. That's a lot of money.
One hundred million dollars of other people's money. Now he's
a rich guy, but he's probably like, I don't know
what the bushes are really worth. You know, tens of millions,
I think, I don't think they're ultra rich, right, they're rich.

(33:34):
You know, he's spent one hundred million dollars of other
people's money and got a delegate. I think, I mean
just was a total The campaign was a total bust. So, yeah,
people have spent massive sums of money in politics, but
raising it from other people changes the game. Bloomberg is like,
who wants to get Mike Bloomberg? Help Mike Bloomberg get
elected president? And what is it? What do I have
to pay you to get you to do it? No

(33:54):
political campaign? Political campaigns have long hours. So many of
my friends have worked on them, long hours, grueling work.
A lot of it is grunt work. It's it's not sexy,
it's boring stuff. But if they're gonna bring in catered sushi,
and I'm a sweet green man myself, like some of
these fancy salad places, but or maybe perhaps they don't

(34:15):
have in and out Burger in New York. Why don't
want But they do have shake shack. You're gonna bring
me free shake shack every day in a gluten free bun.
I mean, I'm not saying I'm not saying that I
would have gone to work on the Bedo campaign if
he had offered these kind of benefits, But I am
saying I might have considered it. Let folks, this is

(34:36):
no one's ever done this before. No one's ever been
able to spend these kinds of resources to make working
for Mike Bloomberg, really really, and look, this is a
guy who understands, understands the free market, understands how to
run a business, understands incentives. He's horrible on national level policy.
He's horrible on climate change and guns and nanny stata.
I get all of that, But if you're getting the

(35:00):
opportunity to go work for the Bloomberg campaign and versus
all the other Democrat campaigns right now, gotta tell you,
he's bringing in a lot of talent and a lot
of people are trying to get get in the door
and get on the Bloomberg gravy train. This has never
happened before. But there's one way that I think this

(35:21):
could be really meaningful for who becomes next president United States.
I don't think it will be Bloomberg. But there's something
else that we have to remember. I'll get to that
in just a second. All right, just before we continue
on with our ken Bloomberg actually buy the presidency, which
I think the answer is no. But who knows. Morning

(35:42):
Consult has a new poll out today, and look, I know,
poles changed, YadA YadA. Pundits love to talk about poles,
but I'm much more interested in the micro analysis that
we can take here or the this snapshot in time
of what what is happening in the Democratic primary that
we think is happening. It is happening. Here's there. This

(36:06):
is the poll was a question was Democratic primary voters
were asked whom they would vote for if the primary
or caucus were held in their state today. Bernie Sanders
was before New Hampshire getting twenty five percent of that vote.
Now he's at twenty nine percent, up four points. Joe
Biden was at twenty two percent, drop three points to

(36:29):
nineteen percent. So now you got Bernie at twenty nine
Biden at nineteen. It's a pretty healthy, healthy gap. Mike
Bloomberg my friends number three in this national poll. This
is asking all Democrats all across the country. Mike Bloomberg
is now eighteen percent. Bloomberg just showed up and has

(36:50):
bought himself into almost third place. I'm sorry, almost second place.
He isn't third place nationally in this poll based on
Democrat reception across the country. And then Pete Buddha Judge
is at eleven, Elizabeth Warren is down to ten, she
dropped one. Booda Judge is pretty much standing constant, and
Kloba char is down to the bottom round five percent.
Now she's got a little bump out of New Hampshire,

(37:11):
but not much, I mean according to this. Now you
have to see how it plays out in Nevada, South Carolina.
I think Biden's gonna You're gonna see Biden's numbers jump,
you know, three, four five points after South Carolina because
people can say, oh he wants at Carolina. Gotta see
how he does in Nevada. Not sure how that's gonna
shake out. But Bernie is clearly right now the front runner.

(37:35):
But we're talking Bloomberg, Maya Bloeberg and he producer brand
it thinks of my Blueberg is actually pretty good for
the record, So you know, it's kind of like it's
like he's just he doesn't want to have to address
all the stupid people in the room, and he's just
why do you want to drink you giant soda? It's
so much sugar, It's so bad for you, right, I mean,

(37:59):
that's that's kind of uh. It just reminds me of
more Goldman from Family Guy. I don't know if he's
just sort of like jury boys, Fine, you're gonna ask me,
You're gonna ask me questions. Can I just can I
just throw Like if I gave you a million dollars?
Would you stop asking me annoying questions? Press? Like? Could
I just give you all? Like how about that? We'll
come up with some kind of a deal. Oh Man

(38:21):
Bloomberg Bloomberg guito for those of you who remember when
he was mayor in New York City. All right, so
this morning Console Pole shows what we all thought happened,
which is Biden is Biden is almost on the ropes here.
Bloomberg is third place nationally, so clearly he's been able
to buy something, he's been able to throw money. And

(38:41):
by the way, it's not fair to say, just that
he's buying, and I mean the money is a huge
part of it. But it's also interesting that he gets
to skip you know, he's gonna have this narrative and
I think Republicans need to be prepared for this. He's
going to skip past all these all these people that
have to do the oh, I'm gonna have to kiss
the babies ds and then go and talk to this

(39:01):
union and talk to that constituency trying to raise money.
He just gets to focus on messaging and has an
army of people doing messaging for him. I mean, he's
paying like Instagram influencers that some of you listening, I
mean your kids might be really into, or those of
you who are Team buck gen Z might be falling
into the category. But you know a guy, I don't

(39:23):
know how else to say it. His name is Blank Jerry,
who's a well known I can't That's all I can say.
Blank Jerry's a well known Instagram influencer. He's doing Bloomberg stuff.
I mean they're they're going out. And there's another there's
another well known Instagram influencer. I don't know if he's
gone gone after him yet or Bloomberg has paid him yet,

(39:43):
but his name is In fact, he goes by the moniker,
the Fat Jewish, Bruster Brandon familiar with he. You know,
they're going for people like that, Instagram influencers who are
thought of as being very edgy and culturally relevant, and
they're taking wads of cash. Although I don't think mister
mister Jewish has done that yet, or mister mister the

(40:05):
Fat Jewish whatever. I don't know his real name, but
I just know that's his stage name, um right, I mean,
do you know do you know his real name? Producer
Brandon might know his real name. I don't. I may
have known at a certain point, but I just don't
like what he's about as a member, as a member
of the Jewish community, Brandon, how do we feel about
a gentleman calling himself of the Fat Jewish all the time?
It's a it's a poor stick, it's get old. Yeah,

(40:28):
it's a it's a funny. He's got oh like a
couple of million Instagram followers, right, he's big on Instagram.
It's offensive to real brilliant Jewish comedians like mel Brooks.
That's how I look at it. It's like, it's so lazy,
you know that's you think, it's like almost it's almost
exploitation of Jewish culture that does not elevate the humorous
aspects of it the way that it has been by

(40:49):
the great luminaries of humor in the past. If you
remember the Brian Franstein character on Seinfeld when he converted
just for the jokes. According to the Jerry, he's he
wanted a stickle Florid. He starts using these I mean
and he wasn't Jewish, you know, according to jew Did
you ever did you ever see the uh the Larry
David episode where he finds out that this lawyer isn't Jewish. Yeah,

(41:11):
but he says like shalom and he's, you know, masl
and all this stuff. Larry David's like, I don't I'm
not okay with this whatever. He's like, what do you mean, Larry,
I'm just trying to be culturally, you know, culturally sensitive.
And he's like, no, you're not trying to make people
think you're a Jewish lawyer. You had to earn it it. Yeah.
So anyway, so there's all these Instagram influencers who are

(41:32):
getting paid all this money because they're not only is
Bloomberger will get his messaging out. He's messaging is being
made kind of cool. There's this story the New York
Times about the waterfall of Bloomberg money talking about a
pro Bloomberg for President. I was gonna say, for mayor
for President party that he threw in Miami with they
were handing out like, uh, you know, breed drizzled in

(41:55):
honey and fancy canopay and the waite staff was wearing
all black, you know, black suits except for red, white
and blue Bloomberg T shirts. And you know, I don't
know if there were like go go dancers and cages
or anything that that's probably off brand. But I'm just
saying it was like a fancy Miami party. And if
I got invited to that Bloomberg party, I'm not saying

(42:16):
I'm voting from Mike. I'm going for Trump all the way.
Am I gonna go eat some breed drizzled and honey?
Though it is a weakness that I have, you know,
it is something that I can't say I would I
would quickly, I would quickly turn down. So there's that.
So that's a thing that that's a thing that's real. Um,
what else did I have for you? On Bloomberg. There

(42:38):
are a few more. Oh, well, how is he how
is he positioning himself in this? Please play Procure brand
and please play fourteen. Even though Donald and I are
both from New York, the truth is we could not
be more different. In fact, I build myself as the
Untrump is a selection is too important for our party
to have the kind of too important, that kind of

(43:02):
divisions we sat we saw back in twenty sixteen, too
important to have. Yeah, I got it. That's that's I'm
right in there. I'm in the I'm close to getting
the Bloomberg, the Bloomer voice down right. But he's saying
he's the un Trump. Well, if he were to win
the nomination, you would have two white male uh boomer

(43:24):
billionaires from New York City vying for the presidency. It's
pretty amazing in a country at three hundred and twenty
million people with a tremendous actual diversity, that it would
be two guys who basically have lived ten blocks from
each other for the last forty years. I mean, I mean, yet,
I don't know, I don't know exact Bloomberg's I guess
in his places out there side. Okay, he lived like

(43:46):
twenty blocks from each other. But yeah, trust me, they've
been going to the same restaurants. I could I could
rattle off the top of my head the restaurants that
Bloomberg and Trump have been going through for a long time. Well,
then again, Trump is probably Mickey D's. He likes Mickey D's. Um,
maybe Chick Filo these days, but he's definitely in the
Mickey D's. So we've got that here. Here's how I
think that this could really matter, or this could really

(44:06):
change change things in a significant way. Bloomberg has also
vowed to use the apparatus that he is I wouldn't
say building the apparatus that he has bought and paid
for for the presidency to help whoever is the nominee.
So there's this talk of broker convention and everyone says
that and no one even people say this, and I'll

(44:26):
be honest, they don't even really understands how that works.
I mean, the people that are talking about it on TV.
But you know, maybe there's a broker convention and Bloomberg
becomes the you know, the the savior of the Democratic
Party or the guy who unites it. I think that's
unlikely that Bernie bros will completely flip out. He's literally
a billionaire oligock. I mean, let's be real, he is
a billionaire oligarc right, So Bernie's run around thing the billionaires,

(44:50):
the billionaires, the oli Cocks, all the millionaires. Now that's
the Bernie's millionaire, so they can't really the billionaires and
the oligos. And then he can point the Bloomberg and
be like, say, I told you, and he's right, he
did tell us it looks like he can buy it.
Looks like you can buy our democracy. But if he
takes the apparatus that he's bought and paid for, if
Bloomberg takes that and leverages it to assist someone else

(45:13):
in the you know, the Democrat field, that will be
that will be a thing that we can't really factor in.
How does that work out? What happens when you have
Bernie to just just follow me on this. When what
happens when you have Bernie level enthusiasm, let's say, meaning
his people that are all Bernie's gonna save America by

(45:34):
making everything free, and we hate the corporations, and you know,
Bernie people are intense, man. You know they're the only
ones that line up in terms of their fervor for
their candidate. With Trump supporters, you know, please, did you
see the Buddha Judge supporters. They're like, they're like, I
can't even do the song. They had some horrible song

(45:56):
they were doing for a while. Do you know what
I'm talking about? The Budda Judge song where they were
like apping and stuff. Whatever. It wasn't it wasn't good.
It wasn't good. So anyway, the Bernie people can line
up against the Trump people, and now you have to
think what happens if those Bernie people then are also
able to say, Hey, at the Bernie rally courtesy of

(46:17):
Mayor Bloomberg, we're gonna have breed drizzled in honey and
people passing out, you know, Toro, Fatty Tuna, big fan
of it and things like that. It's all free. Just
show up at the rally and also stay and we're
going to give out like really high quality organic cotton
T shirts with Bernie for President on them, courtesy of
Mayor Bloomberg. You start to see how that could be

(46:39):
a thing. But now, would would Bloomberg do that for Bernie?
I think Bloomberg stepping in because he understands what Burnie
would mean for the country. I think he would do
it for He'd do it for Klobaschar. He would do it,
you know. I think he's promised that he'll support the nominee,
but will he use the resources at his disposal to

(46:59):
help that nomine with the apparatus he's currently paying for
and saying he's going to pay for it through the election.
He'd do it for Mayor Pete. He'd do it for
Kloba Schar. He'd definitely do it for Biden. I don't
know if he would do it for Bernie. And think
about the message that that would say. Think about the
civil war that could be ignited with the Democratic Party

(47:20):
if that happens to be the case. So I'm telling
you Bloomberg is an X factor. I don't mean that
doesn't mean that we that mean we don't know. But
Bloomberg is an X factor in all of this. When
you have that much money to spend and that much
organizational savvy who knows. Thanks for listening to The Bus

(47:41):
Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, the
iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right,
just before we continue on with our Ken Bloomberg actually
buy the presidency, which I think the answer is no.
But who knows. Morning Consult has a new pole out today,

(48:01):
and look, I know, polls changed, YadA YadA. Pundits love
to talk about polls, but I'm much more interested in
the micro analysis that we can take here or the

the Democratic primary that we think is happening. It is happening,

Could I just give you all? Like? How about that?

eat some breed drizzled in honey? Though it is a
weakness that I have, you know, it is something that
I can't say I would, I would quickly, I would
quickly turn down. So there's that. So that's a thing
that that's a thing that's real. Um what else did

(54:53):
I have for you on on Bloomberg? There are a
few more? Oh well, how is he? How is he
positioning himself in this? Please play PreCure Brandon, Please play fourteen.
Even though Donald and I are both from New York,
the truth is we could not be more different. In fact,
I build myself as the Untrump is this selection is
too important for our party to have the kind of

(55:17):
too important that the kind of divisions we sat we
saw back in twenty sixteen, too important to have that. Yeah,
I got it. That's that's I'm right in there. I'm
in the I'm close to getting the Bloomberg the Bloomer
voice down right. But he's saying he's the Untrump. Well,
if you were to win the nomination, you would have
two white male boomer billionaires from New York City vying

(55:43):
for the presidency. It's pretty amazing in a country at
three hundred and twenty million people with a tremendous actual diversity.
That facts, it would be two guys who basically have
lived ten blocks from each other for the last forty years.
I mean, I mean yet, I don't know. I don't
know exactly Bloomberg's I guess in his places out there side. Okay,
he lived like twenty blocks from each other. But you know,

(56:04):
trust me, they've been going to the same restaurants. I
could I could rattle off the top of my head
the restaurants that Bloomberg and Trump have been going through
for a long time. Well, then again, Trump is probably
Mickey D's. He likes Mickey D's. Um, maybe Chick fil
A these days, but he's definitely in the Mickey D's.
So we've got that here. Here's how I think that
this could really matter, or this could really change change
things in a significant way. Bloomberg has also vowed to

(56:29):
use the apparatus that he is I wouldn't say building
the apparatus that he has bought and paid for for
the presidency to help whoever is the nominee. So there's
this talk of broker convention and everyone says that and
no one even people say this, and I'll be honest,
they don't even really understand how that works. I mean
the people that are talking about it on TV. But
you know, maybe there's a broker convention and Bloomberg becomes

(56:50):
the you know, the the savior of the Democratic Party
or the guy who unites it. I think that's unlikely.
Bernie bros. Will completely flip out. He's literally a billionaire Oligock.
I mean, let's be real, he is a billionaire oligarc right,
So Berni's went around saying the billionaires, the billionaires, the
oli cocks all the millionaires. Now that's the Bernie's the millionaires,

(57:11):
so they can't really the billionaires and the oligos. And
then he can point the Bloomberg and be like, say,
I told you, and he's right, he did tell us.
It looks like he can buy it. Looks like you
can buy our democracy. But if he takes the apparatus
that he's bought and paid for, if Bloomberg takes that
and leverages it to assist someone else in the you know,
the Democrat field, that will be that will be a

(57:36):
thing that we can't really factor in. How does that
work out? What happens when you have Bernie to just
just follow me on this, When what happens when you
have Bernie level enthusiasm, let's say, meaning his people that
are all Perni's gonna save America by making everything free
and we hate the corporations. And you know, Bernie people
are intense, man. You know, they're the only ones that

(57:59):
line up in terms of their fervor for their candidate
with Trump supporters. You know, please, did you see the
Buddha Judge supporters. They're like, they're like, I can't even
do the song. They had some horrible song they were
doing for a while, do you know what I'm talking about?
The Buddha Judge song where they were like clapping and stuff. Whatever.
It wasn't it wasn't good. It wasn't good. So anyway,

(58:23):
the Bernie people can line up against the Trump people,
and now you have to think what happens if those
Bernie people then are also able to say, Hey, at
the Bernie rally courtesy of Mayor Bloomberg, we're gonna have
breed drizzled in honey and people passing out, you know, Toro,
Fatty Tuna, big fan of it and things like that.
It's all free. Just show up at the rally and

(58:45):
also stay and we're gonna give out like really high
quality organic cotton t shirts with Bernie for President on them,
courtesy of Mayor Bloomberg. You start to see how that
could be a thing. But now, would would Bloomberg do
that for Bernie? I think Bloomberg stepping in because he
understands what Burnie would mean for the country. I think
he would do it for He'd do it for Cloba

(59:07):
Shar He would do it. You know. I think he's
promised that he'll support the nominee, But will he use
the resources at his disposal to help that nominee with
the apparatus he's currently paying for and saying he's going
to pay for it through the election. He'd do it
for Mayor Pete, he'd do it for Cloba Shar, He'd
definitely do it for Biden. I don't know if he

(59:29):
would do it for Bernie. And think about the message
that that would say. Think about the civil war that
could be ignited within the Democratic Party if that happens
to be the case. So I'm telling you Bloomberg is
an X factor. I don't mean that doesn't mean that
we that mean we don't know, But Bloomberg is an
X factor in all of this. When you have that

(59:49):
much money to spend and that much organizational savvy, who
knows you're in the freedom This is the Buck Sex
and Show podcast. All right, I want to move on
from mayor Mike. But this, this is a broader thing.
This isn't really about the election. Get the guy's worth

(01:00:10):
tens of billions of dollars forty to fifty billions. What
you just see is the estimate. And he's asked, how
do you become super successful? Sometimes sometimes people give advice
on how to become successful, and I hear it and
I go, oh, that's really good. That really that is
something that will stay with me. And I don't know,
and one day, maybe, if you want, I'll tell you
the things that I've I've learned from experience I think

(01:00:32):
are important and I wish I had known when I
was younger. But maybe you have to experience it to
really appreciate how important certain things are. But here's Bloomberg's
advice to workers on how to become successful. Play nineteen
smarter than anybody else, but I can out work you.
And my key to success for you or for anybody

(01:00:53):
else's make sure you're the first one in there every
day and the last one. Believe, don't ever take a
lunch break or go to the bathroom. You keep work,
and you never know when that opportunity is going to
come along. Now you might say, Buck, how could you
argue with Boomberg? You're not worth you know, forty billion
dollars whatever. But I got a few reasons. I think
that's horrible advice he's giving it. I think that's absolutely

(01:01:14):
garbage advice. And I could also point to a lot
of other people who would say, yeah, no, that are
very successful, that are that are self made, were a
ton of money. You know, I can tell you. I
can tell you this. You know, Elon Musk isn't worth
what he's worth because he never leaves his desk and
never goes for a potty break and has sandwiches brought
to him and has no human interaction like no, no, no,

(01:01:36):
no no. This is a little bit of the self
indulgent boomer fantasy work ethic that comes out sometimes where
it's oh, I'm the I'm the president this company because
all right, I went to work in the snow up
to my neck. You know, I had no shoes and
I wear bala Okay, I mean still like some people
have amazing stories of success and going through trials and tribulations,

(01:01:59):
But the truth is that in a lot of positions,
you don't need to show up and just be there
all the time and never do anything but work. You
want to be thinking about your next move. You want
to be thinking about are you growing, are you becoming
more valuable in this role? Should you find another role
in the company, should you find another job? How are
you expending your energy? Is what you're doing useful or

(01:02:19):
is it easy for anyone else to replicate it. If
it's easy for anyone else to replicate it, just doing
that repetition does not actually advance your career or your value.
I've said before on this show that some of the
best advice I was given when I was thinking about
transitioning out of government work was by a long time,
very smart guy in the government who said, no one
to go all out of no one to do the minimum,

(01:02:40):
meaning no one. You know, when the smart thing to do.
It's never smart to shirk work. Look bad, not me,
trouble again. It's never a good idea. But there are
times when what you want to do is do exactly
what is required of you and nothing else, because you
need to be thinking about other things, conserving your energy
for other things. That's a reality, especially in the modern workplace,
where you know, companies come and go, you got startups.

(01:03:02):
I mean, the culture has entirely changed. There's so much
more dynamism and necessary flexibility in careers of people that
are still building today. You know, to show up and
just be at a place and be there for thirty years.
That that doesn't really exist anymore because a lot of
places that you're going to show up and aren't gonna
exist in thirty years. There are you know, they're boom

(01:03:24):
and bus cycles. You've got companies that are valued at
billions of dollars that don't even make a profit. I
mean a lot of stuff going on here. But I
gotta say, I mean, far be it for me to
give you different advice than than Mike Bloomberg. But I
am doing that because he's wrong. The secret to success
is not never take a potty break and never never

(01:03:47):
go to lunch with anybody and be Yeah, I mean,
you gotta put in long hours, but okay, you can
put a long hour. If you put in long hours
at the factory assembly line, and that's all you ever
think about is putting in long hours, you'll get some
mot But are you going to become a manager? Are
you going to be Are you gonna become the guy
that runs the factory one day? Probably not. You got
to think about how you become that person. You have

(01:04:07):
to be smart about your labor, As I said, no
one to do the minimum and be strategic about your time.
Time is the one thing you have that you can
never get more of. You have to be thinking about
maximizing your usage of time, and that also means energy
and effort. If you go all out at everything you're going,
you're not going to be successful and the most important things.

(01:04:29):
So I mean, this is one reason why I always appreciate,
for example, when people will even ask me, hey, you know,
can you yeah, I just started, I just started a podcast.
I'd love to have you on as a guest the answers.
I would love to be a guest off anybody who's
ever listened to me, and I really appreciate it, and
it's very sweet and it means a lot. But if
I said yes to every one of those requests, I

(01:04:51):
would be doing that all the time, and that then
takes up energy and time that I need to be
spending on doing this show for all of you. I mean,
that's just a small personal exam but that's this is
why I just can't do. I can't people ask me
to come speak at at a at a group or
a club, and if I could, I'd love to. But
you know, by the time I got into plane and
I go and you know, this is why there has

(01:05:11):
to be a business proposition attached to it. You know,
this is why people have speaker honorariums and things like that,
because otherwise you're just flying around on your own time
for free talking to people. And I love the people
that I got to talk to, But I gotta keep
the Freedom Hunt running. We gotta, you know, producer Brandon
needs a new pair of shoes. We can't. We gotta
run a business over here. So protecting your time is

(01:05:32):
very important. And there are too many places where you
can waste time in endeavors that are not advancing you,
and especially if they're ground If you're getting ground down
to the point where you're burning out, that's not that
does not make you stronger, that's making you less effective
in what you're doing. So I just think Bloomberg's it's
just such a simplistic Oh I'm a billionaire now and
I worked harder than everybody else. Bloomberg used leverage, he

(01:05:56):
used connections, and he used savvy. Okay, he wasn't making
iPhones with his fingers faster than everybody else, you know
what I mean. I mean, obviously wasn't making iPhones at all,
But you see what I'm saying. It wasn't like, oh
he just outworked everybody, No, he had he was in
the right place at the right time. He leveraged connections
and he thought about the big picture. You should be
doing the same in your own life with whatever you do.

(01:06:18):
Don't take Bloomberg's just work until you pass out advice,
bad advice. You're in the freedom hud. This is the
Buck Sexton Show podcast. I don't know. I was disciplinary
actions being considered to guess Colonel Vaneman, and they'd have

(01:06:39):
to be based on the conduct. But I do believe
that it is appropriate to find out who can whistle
glory is if you have a very concerned but there
are people who basically having political agenda and acted on it.
And we'll see holt me until we find out. Lindsey
Graham talks a good game and a lot of things.

(01:07:01):
I think that Lindsey Graham, though, has become a little
too focused on punditry on some of the cable shows
and not focused enough on follow through as a powerful
member of the United States Senate. I think he has
gotten a little a little too addicted to the cameras
and not enough. You know, you think of someone like Cocaine, Mitch.
Cocaine Mitch is getting the job done. Yeah, he gives

(01:07:24):
speeches and stuff too. But you don't see Cocaine Mitch
on TV. You know, it feels like every night Lindsey Graham,
and I feel like he's on It does a lot
of TV where he said where he says things that
I like. It's not that, although not always but generally
saying things I agree with. But then when he says
things like, Okay, we gotta find out who whistle blowers are?
What are you doing to find out who the whistle
blowers you call on for hearing? You're gonna do anything

(01:07:46):
about this? Rand Paul is one of the very few
who has been willing to really take action on this.
Do we have by the way, do we have rand
speech on the So I want to play this streak
because I remember Rampaul wanted to ask during the Senate trial,
and this matters on a bunch of levels. This is
a much bigger story than I think people recognize right

(01:08:09):
now because the media, for a whole bunch of reasons,
I doesn't want to touch it. Rand Paul wanted to
ask a question as we all remember if you watch,
and I shouldn't say we all remember, it was really
boring and who remembers really any of it. At this point,
I told you everyone's going to forget the Senate trial
even happened, and we basically have. But Rampaul wanted to
ask a question, and Chief Justice Roberts refused to read

(01:08:32):
off the question, which was bizarre. I mean, we're living
in this very Orwellian or perhaps kafka esque, or maybe
it's Orwellian Kafka askue. I mean, we're living in this
bizarre world of we can all kind of know something,
but we can't admit that we know it or talk

(01:08:55):
about that we know it, even though it is of
major public concern. It's about as weird as when I
remember for a while, and the federal government probably still
holds this ass as its rule. But the federal government's
position on classified information was, even if something was in
the public domain and universally believed to be accurate, you

(01:09:19):
could theoretically be held legally liable if you had a
clearance for speaking about it or sharing it with anybody. Right.
So there was a time when the drone program very
very secret, where drone strikes and strikes happening. The New
York Times was running graphics with, you know, pictures of
drones talking about their how far they can fly, the

(01:09:41):
hell fire missiles they follow, where the strikes are occurring,
and all this stuff, and we all would talk about it,
and Obama would make jokes about it about drones, but
it was still the official position of the United States government. Well,
if you if you have a clearance and you know
about drones, you talk about drones, you get in trouble.
What Now, that doesn't really generally happen because it's so dumb,

(01:10:02):
But it's a weird policy that they have, and that
was the official policy. I can tell you that it
still is. I believe the official policy that even if
something is in the public domain and universally believed to
be true, if it is classified information and the government
has not officially declassified it, you could be considered to
be in violation of a law merely for sharing it.

(01:10:23):
If it's on the front page of the newspaper, but
you send it to somebody and you have a clearance,
you might be in trouble. So that reminds me of
what's going on with the whistleblower, which is we're living
in this it's just inexcusable. It's unsettling. Really, we all
know Eric Sharamella is the name of the guy that,

(01:10:43):
according to major media outlets, is the whistleblower. And it
all lines up and we all understand that this is
what probably happened, but news organizations act like there is
a statutory protection for this guy that does not exist.
And I also want to know why is why the
Inspector General has not received pressure and just he's allowed

(01:11:05):
to release the name. We are we've already heard a name,
release the name or say that this is not the person.
Then so at least we have some clarity. But we
should not be in this. Oh we know, but we
can't know place. Why don't I bring this up now? Well?
Because rand Paul asked that question or the Senate trial,
Supreme Court Justice Roberts refused to read that question, and

(01:11:29):
Rand Paul then took to the floor of the Senate
where he has there's just immunity for what you say
on the floor of the Senate, like you can set
you cannot be sued, you can you can say what
you want to say on the floor of the Senate's
why when you know Harry Reid said Mitt Romney hadn't
paid taxes in ten years, just a blatant lie, a
slander sat on the floor of the Senate. He used

(01:11:50):
the floor of the Senate as an invincible slander machine.
That's that's Harry read. That's the old Democrats Senate majority leader.
While they tell you to care so much about institutions,
laughable garbage. But here is what rand Paul said on
the floor of the Senate. Please play at producer Brandon

(01:12:11):
my exact question. We'll put it up here. Are you
aware that the House Intelligence Committee staffer Sean Misco had
a close relationship with Eric Chieramella while at the National
Security Council together. Are you aware and how would you
respond to reports that Chieramella and Misco may have worked

(01:12:32):
together to plot impeaching the president before there were formal
House impeachment proceedings. That is now banned from YouTube YouTube
which is owned by Google, which is owned by parent
company Alphabet, one of the most powerful institutions in the world.

(01:12:53):
Now there are private companies, many of them now that
have larger that would be if they were a national economy,
are larger than any but like the top fifty, you know,
global economies of countries. I mean, there are a whole
bunch of companies that have reached that point. So in
a sense, financially, they're almost countries unto themselves and Google people.

(01:13:14):
It's technically Alphabet owns Google, but it's just a whole.
It's Google is Google. Good job, Buck, Google is Google.
Google it. They have decided internally that they will not
allow any mention of the whistleblower. Now that's important because
people use YouTube for information increasingly. In fact, we're going

(01:13:34):
to be building out for this show a YouTube a
YouTube channel, so those of you that are used to
watching it on well, those you rather that are used
to listening, you'll be able to watch it on video
on playback whenever you want, because we videotape the show
now every day on Pluto channel to forty eight, the
first which you should also be watching live download the
Pluto TV app. You'll see me giving quizzical looks to

(01:13:57):
producer Mark when he starts to yell at me for
being quote late. I keep explaining to him that talent
is not late. Talent arrives. When it arrives, Producer Mark,
and then he says, who calls you talent? I'm like, wow,
you know, he's so salty. He's so salty that producer Mark,
you know, sometimes sometimes he makes me sad. I'm just kidding.
He's great, but he keeps me in check, which is
always important. Not that I really need that. Though he

(01:14:19):
makes fun of me for having a big head. Brandon.
Then he's like, no, no, no, no, I don't mean
like your ego. I just mean you have a big head.
And I'm like, oh, okay, thank you. It's true. I
do have a very a very large cranium. So YouTube
banned the mention of Eric Scharamela and there's no real
explanation as to why they say it violates their terms
of service or something. What is going on here, my friends?

(01:14:43):
And it makes me think that there must be a
belief and among people who are powerful and connected that
somehow they've got something else. There's some next act here
of this stage of the soft coup against Trump where
they're gonna you know, I don't know. I can't tell
you what it is. I'm not in on the conspiracy.

(01:15:05):
But why are they still so hell bent on making
sure that Charamela's name is not on major digital platforms
and banning it. What is that there's no statutory protection
whatsoever any news outlet can say his name whenever they want.
It's he's now a limited limited interest or limited usage

(01:15:26):
public figure. He was central to one of the biggest
news stories in the country, and we can't say his name.
They're gonna, they're gonna. This is like in the Soviet
Union when they would disappear people and then they'd go
back in the official records and they would use a
razorblade to remove to actually physically remove the name from records,
like to cut it out of pages. What are we

(01:15:50):
doing here? And the fact that journalists do not see
this as an outrage just goes to show you they're activists.
They're activists, they want an outcome. They show up to
work every day, they look at all these facts and
all this information that's coming in, and they try to
think of this as how do how do we tell

(01:16:11):
people's stories that will interest them that bash or hurt Trump.
That is the mission at CNN, that is the mission
at the New York Times, it is the mission at
the Washington Post. All this information coming in, great, Let's
tell people stuff, but let's make sure at the end
of the day that they get a steady dosage of
Trump is terrible. He needs to be out of office,

(01:16:32):
and anything we do to get him out of office
is justified. Okay, well, let's just understand right now that
that's not what they say they're doing. This is a
departure from what journalists actually believe that they're up to
on any given day. But more than that, how could
they suppress the basic mission that they say they're doing,

(01:16:55):
which is presenting information in the public and not chase
down whether or not this guy is the whistleblower. They're
treating him. They're treating the whistleblower as though he is
a some kind of like an employee who would be
in danger. This is what they all The person would
be in danger? How in danger? How from who? We
already think it's this guy. And if that's going to

(01:17:16):
be the standard, then any public figure or sorry, any
person who becomes a public figure through the news, you
could say you're putting them in danger. They didn't worry
about the danger they put the Commington High School kids
in when they splashed their photo and call them racists
and worry about that at all. These people are frauds,
absolute frauds. It's also one of the reasons I would

(01:17:38):
note people have picked up on this. You don't really
see debate anymore on television, You really don't. And it's because,
I mean, this is look, the left dominates media, news
media in particular. Still the left still has about a
ninety percent share of platforms, and it's it's outrageous, but
that's the way that it is. But they also know

(01:18:00):
that they've gone too far, and a lot of leftists,
a lot of these different shows have just gotten kind
of fat, happy and lazy with feeding a steady diet
of lib propaganda to their audiences. And the people feeding
that propaganda, they just want this cycle to continue because
they agree with it. But also they're making money off
of it, and it's fine, and you know, they know.

(01:18:20):
You know, Rachel Mattaw, who's a leading left wing commentator,
would not be able against somebody who understands the Russia collusion,
the truth about the Russia collusion situation and watched a
few of her monologue, wouldn't be able to defend what
her show is done. She would look bad. It would
really damage her brand. It would look like she's a fraud.

(01:18:42):
So they can't have the in same with Joe Scarborough.
Joe Scarboro, s oh is you're going to rust to
Joe Scarboroughs and moron. They can't actually engage the other
side anymore. People keep talking about the polarization, But I
understand the polarization the media from the perspective of there
are so many rich cash cows at these different organizations
who if they subjected themselves to scrutiny from someone who's

(01:19:04):
adept on the right, they would end up looking foolish
and then the mythology of the brilliance of this person
would disappear. Have you have you ever seen have you
ever seen Anderson Cooper debate somebody who knows what they're
talking about on any of this? Have you ever seen
Jake Tapper get smoked by somebody who actually knows what
they're talking about on this a volunteer for that anytime?

(01:19:24):
By the way, any of any of these people at
MSNBC or at ABC News which is really just ABC News,
at NBC News team, at Chuck Todd, he's there, big
political guy. Do you ever see them debate people? No,
they do the whole like, oh, I'm just an anchor
asking questions, and they try to skew the questions to
please their audience. But they'd never really say this is

(01:19:45):
what I believe. Let's argue about this and it's me.
It's not I'm I'm just a journalist, man, I'm just
asking questions. It's no I will defend this position. They're frauds.
They're just frauds. Thanks for listening The bus Essen Show podcasts.

wherever you get your podcasts. This morning, the President congratulated
the Attorney General amazingly enough for taking charge of the case.
The President ran against the swamp in Washington, a place
where the game is rigged by the powerful to benefit
them personally, I asked, my fellow Americans, what is more swampy,

(01:20:29):
What is more feted? What is more stinking than the
most powerful person in the country literally changing the rules
to benefit a crony guilty of breaking the law. As
a result, I have formally requested that the Inspector General
of the Justice Department investigate this matter immediately, and this

(01:20:52):
morning I call on Judiciary Committee Chairman Graham to convene
an emergency hearing of the Judiciary to do the same,
to conduct oversight and hold hearings. Oh yes, Schumer is
so serious about defending the Constitution. They found their new
point of hysteria. Oh we need more investigations, more investigations.

(01:21:16):
That this is the only thing they ever say, Oh,
you got to investigate this thing that Trump did. We
got to investigate that thing that Trump did. And if
Trump opposed it, he's obstructing Congress. Is people are They're
just it's absurd, it really is, And you know it's
I worry sometimes that their plan is just their mania,
their psychosis gives them a kind of superhuman focus and

(01:21:38):
energy on things that aren't true, and that they're just
gonna wear us down, that that's really the plan. They're
just going to grind us down with their lunacy to
the point where like, fine, anything, investigate them, do whatever
you gotta do. Just stop. I mean, I'm not gonna
get to that point. Don't worry. I like fighting libs.
But President Trump certainly understands what's gone on here, and
he's taken all the right lessons from this. Prouce Brandon

(01:22:00):
play twelves. Did you learn from impeachment? That the Democrats
are crooked? They've got to let of crooked things going,
that they're vicious, that they shouldn't have brought impeachment anything
that by Paul, numbers are ten points higher because of
fake news like NBC, which reports the news very inaccurately,
probably more inaccurately than CNN, if that's possible, MSDNC and

(01:22:25):
you're MS and if you take a look at NBC now,
I think they're among the most dishonest reporters of the news. Yep,
they are dishonest. And it's good that the President says it.
I think that his quote war on the media is
one of the best things, one of the best features
of this presidency. I completely agree with him. I think
he's spot on with this stuff. And this is the

(01:22:47):
this is the lesson of the impeachment. That the Democrats
are are filthy. They'll just play as dirty as they
can and they never change, and they don't care, and
it's all just it's all just a Paul, It's something
that we should really look at and going forward and
remind ourselves, remind ourselves of whenever we start to think,

(01:23:08):
why are we being too hard on the crazy dams?
Are we being too hard on them? Which I don't
think any of you really stay up late at night
worried about that, but it's certainly a possibility. We've got
some other things that I wanted to get into. We've
got a story out of UVA that it's just a
reminder of what's going on in these college campuses that

(01:23:30):
you're gonna have to you're gonna have to hear it,
and then well then we'll talk about it. Thanks for
listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe
on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you
get your podcasts. Maybe a while since you've been on
a college campus, or perhaps you're listening to the show
on a college campus. Maybe you're actually just finding out

(01:23:50):
what do they give? When do they get the I
guess earlier decision letters went back to people who are
seniors in high school last month or in January, I
mean if December January, but anyway, I don't know when
the last time was you're on a college campus. But
there's a lot of stuff going on that I think
would surprise some of the older generations, some of the boomers,

(01:24:15):
And one of them is that there are these well
I don't know if they have this at every school.
At Amirs, we had something called an affinity house, and
we had houses that were considered cultural houses, but there
were cultural houses based on a certain ethnicity. So there
was like the Black Student Union House or the Latino

(01:24:36):
Students Association House, and there was this I don't know
how to really describe it other than in the Black
the Black Student Union House. Everybody except for I think
one person when I was in college in that house
was black, and it was one of the nicest. It
was actually the nicest dorm because it was really only
on campus housing Roman school on campus, and you know,

(01:24:58):
there was a Latino house, and there's some other I forget,
there's some others too, and there's like an International student's house.
So it's not just racial this racial separation that we
could discuss, but it's a thing that goes on in
these campuses. And it also, you know, you also have
conversations about safe space and how it creates a safe
space for people who feel like maybe they're you know,

(01:25:21):
not as included in campus activities, who come from certain backgrounds.
And there's all the usual social justice rhetoric and multiculturalism
and all this stuff. Okay, fine to me. I think
that when you have a campus of people that is
inherently already a very diverse place, and you're all sitting
in the same lunch rooms, going to the same parties,
going to going to the same classes. And then to
have your living quarters separated by ethnicity in any way,

(01:25:45):
even if it's not ironclad rule, but it's kind of
the rule. I think that's odd. I think that that's
counter the purposes that the college says that it's supposed
to be engaged in, which is bringing people together and inclusiveness.
And well, here's an example of what happens when that
when that rhetoric and that mentality is able to continue

(01:26:08):
and grow on campuses. You have a female African American
student at UVA who is in a multiculturalism center at UVA,
and she gets up and gives this speech that I
think you should all here. Please play clip five Public
service announcement. Excuse me if y'all didn't know this is

(01:26:32):
the MSc, And frankly, there's just too many white people
in here, and this is a space for people of color,
So just be really cognizant of the space that you're
taking up, because it does make some of us POC's
uncomfortable when you see too many white people in here.
It's only been open for four days. And frankly, there's
the whole university for a lot he ought to be at,
and there's very few spaces for us. So keep that

(01:26:54):
in mind. Thank you. People are clapping for that, by
the way. You fing so you're of an African American
female at UVA, in elite school that feels she feels
comfortable telling a room full of people that there are
too many white people in here, and you white people

(01:27:16):
have many other places on campus to be and we
meaning I suppose African Americans have very few places that
are for us. I don't know what she's because they
can go anywhere on campus. Right, there's there's no separation
on campus. But now we've reached a point where and
this is a real thing, and it was true when

(01:27:37):
I was in college, and it's I'm sure even more
true now where inclusiveness means everyone means that non white
students are allowed and welcome, of course, anywhere on campus,
in any club, in any house and anything. I mean,
if you try to challenge that, you'd be branded a racist.

(01:28:00):
Some kicked off campus immediately. But there are places on
campus where white students are not welcome or even not
really allowed to be or go. And people would say, oh,
well that's not true, and I'd say, okay, well, I
remember I was an Airmhurst. It was called the Charles
Drew House and you had to apply, and somehow the

(01:28:22):
Charles Drew House, which was also the like Black student
Union meeting house, was almost entirely, if not entirely black
students when I was there. I mean there might have
been one or two students who were not black, but
it was very it was very, very few, and I
just okay, so are here. Here's a better way to

(01:28:43):
put it. Would I have been welcomed and felt comfortable
applying to live in this house which was campus housing?
It's not a private association off camp campus housing. Would
I have been welcome applying to that house? People would
this is where they also get They would say, oh,
of course, this book, this is whatever's college is. Of
course you were well, no, no, I am not okay,

(01:29:05):
I was there. People would have been like, why are you?
They would have taken the opinion, many students would have
taken the opinion that this young woman has, which is
why you know you have so many places on campus?
Why are you trying to take us a space meant
for she says a POC, a person of color. The
left defends this stuff. You know they you know, if
you try to to nail them down on something and say, well,

(01:29:27):
hold on a second, is this okay? Oh, but that's
not really what But ultimately it is what happens, and
they are okay with it, and they can pretend not
to be when people are shining a light on the situation.
But we all know at the end of the day
that this is somehow wokeness and social justice means that
it's a problem for white students to be in certain

(01:29:49):
places on campus that are not meant for white students,
or where there can't be too many, as this woman says,
white students. And here's how we can prove this, this
theory out. Do you think that this student at UV
received any kind of even a disciplinary warning. Do you
think that the deans or any the administrators or anyone
brought her aside. I was like, hey, probably not a

(01:30:11):
cool thing to say. There are just too many white
people in this college, in this college structure, the multiculturalism center.
Probably not the way you really want a fraid, No,
I be willing to bet that no one said anything
to her about this. Now, is there a double standard work? Okay,
let's play out the experiment. What would happen if a

(01:30:33):
student stood up and said, hey, guys, there are too
many you know, if a white student stood up and
said that there were too many Pacific Islanders here, and
we feel like the Pacific Islander population in this multiculturalism

(01:30:54):
center is crowding out the rest of the people that
we want here, so we need less Pacific Islanders in
the multiculturalism center. What do you think would be the response,
assuming there are a lot of Pacific houndors in the center.
I'm obviously trying to, you know, take some of the
take some of the heat out of this analogy, this conversation.

(01:31:14):
What do you think would happen to the white students?
Do you think people would say that's great, Yeah, yeah,
you're you're allowed. You're allowed to say there's too many
of X ethnicity in this place. Good call. That that
white student would be run off campus so fast they
wouldn't even have to wait for the dean to bring
any discipline. We all know this. Now we have to

(01:31:35):
get into why is the one okay and the other not?
Why does the campus allow one and the other would
be would be strictly forbidden. We know the answer, right.
We know that the left now has adopted different rules
for different people based upon skin color. We know this
also because Elizabeth Warren even says that explicitly running for

(01:31:56):
president the United States, she said, quote, we need race
conscious laws. Well, on college campus is they have what
you could consider race conscious expectations of conduct. There are
things that white students cannot say that minority students can say,
and we're constantly told. I would note that the opposite

(01:32:18):
is true, that you know, white students have all this
privilege on campus, the only privileges that I'm aware of
any students having. And it's not even just about racial
or ethnic minorities, but just in general, it's true about
gender issues. There's a lot of stuff. The only people
on a college campus who have no special privilege as
a matter of administrative rule or administrative ruling, white male students.

(01:32:42):
It's just on a college campus, your white male students,
you are you. You know there is nothing you're allowed
to say that nobody else is allowed to say. That
much is for sure, so I think worth keeping them
in mind. And also is true about gender situations as well. Right,
there are certain gender specific that there are up there

(01:33:04):
are resources set up for, um, you know, transgender students
on campus that are specifically the transgender community. They're resources
set up for you know. And you could say, all right,
well there are resources, but also does that affect the
way the school administers let's say justice during disciplinary hearings?
And the answer, by the way, is yes, does it administer.

(01:33:25):
Here's here's a thing that that I had a friend
who was a student advisor for these these trials in college,
and chief said that there was oh, this is just
this is what I was told by a female fellow
classmate that the disciplinary the disciplinary hearings for any allegation

(01:33:45):
of sexual misconduct that was heterosexual, we're always more severe.
The consequences were more severe everyone took than disciplinary hearings
where there was the same sex conduct involved. Which does which?
Which does happen to? You know? There are these biases
that come up, which I think it's very interesting that
this doesn't really get much talked about. But anyway, back

(01:34:08):
to the UVA the UVA speech here, this is there
the end result of where we are on campuses now,
where we now have we now have a sense that
a self selection process, to have students in some ways
segregate themselves as minorities from other students is somehow positive

(01:34:31):
and empowering. And I think that's a huge mistake. And
I think that the Left is very wrong on this,
just like they are on pretty much everything else. You're
in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sex and
Show podcast. It's a huge fight breaking out online right now.

(01:34:53):
It's an intense, no holds barred discussion, one that I'm
sure many of you have a strong opinions about. I
think we always have to maintain our respect for one
another because we need to be able to have the
tough discussions here in the Freedom Hunt. We need to
be able to share our thoughts and ideas without thinking
that we are alienating our brothers and sisters in freedom

(01:35:14):
here in the Hut. Which brings me to the debate
over reclining in an airline seat. There's a video that
has gone viral, and this video shows a man who
so it's a woman in the front seat and a
man behind her in a seat that cannot recline because

(01:35:37):
it's the last seat on the plane, which is the
worst seat on the plan. As we all know, so
he can't recline. The woman in front of in front
of him has reclined fully, and he has decided to
sit there and punch just sort of not gently but
not fiercely, just just sort of repeatedly punch the back

(01:35:57):
of her seat. Just punch, punch, punch, punch. She's just
gonna keep punching her seat. And she takes out of
video camera and just put this online. And people are
fierce in their decision about whether this whether should you
be reclining or not? Does reclining make you a bad
person on an airline seat? Or should everyone just accept

(01:36:18):
where they are on accept the reality that seats that
can recline will recline, and that you're allowed to do this,
the airlines allow you to do it. And if it's
you know, if you happen to be seven feet tall
and you're flying economy, you know tough. I want to know,
first and foremost, what does producer Brandon think about this?
Are you a recliner or not? I want to know
what the preliminary conversation was. Did he just start punching?

(01:36:41):
Did he ask her first? Because that's that's a big
So you want to go from you want to go
for the manners component of this first to see I
think it's all about manners. Yeah, because you are aware
that the person behind you can't recline, but at the
same time, you want to feel comfortable. I know I
can't go all they can't go all the way back,
but maybe just a couple of centimeters you can negotiate.

(01:37:03):
So you're you're like, I'm a third way guy on
this one. You think you think that reclining if you
are considered about how much you recline and take into
consideration the possibility that you maybe don't recline if the
person behind you really ask you politely, that's kind of
where you are. Yeah, so so you're an ad hoc
You're an ad hoc recliner. Yes, yeah, you know you're

(01:37:24):
an a la cart like sometimes you recline, sometimes you
won't agreed. Yes, yes, see, I just think I I
look at a No. I hate when someone reclines on
I've been there. I don't like when someone reclines on
the airline seat because I fly, I fly coach. I
don't have any money. Uh, you know, I don't like
it when they when they recline and I'm I got

(01:37:46):
the scene in and it's really no one likes that,
especially on a short domestic flight. It's like, do you
really need to recline for the forty minutes from the
for the flight from you know, Topeka to tally well,
you know a lot of very Topeka to what will
be a forty minute flight from there. This is a
fun geography test Oklahoma City. That's probably about right, probably

(01:38:09):
less than a forty minute flight. But anyway, do you
really need to recline for a short flight the one
hour flight from New York to DC that one? I
know the answers, no, okay, So I do think that
we should be reasonable about these things. You know, there's
there's nuance here, there's many layers. But people get into
huge fights about this. On planes, people get very upset.

(01:38:29):
Airline airplane travel is designed almost to bring out the
worst in human beings and put us on edge and
make it so uncomfortable. And I just wish plane you know,
I wish airlines weren't making money off of our discomfort,
but they are. These airlines, these these low cost carriers
in particular, they make money off of giving you the

(01:38:50):
bare minimum, and people generally all the studies have shown this.
People look at what is the cheapest air fare I
can get. They want to pay the least amount of money,
and because that tends to be the overwhelming choice that
the consumer makes, they you know, we end up flying
in very uncomfortable circumstances. I mean planes have actually airline

(01:39:14):
travels one of the few parts of modern American life
that it's gotten worse now. Seats have gotten smaller and narrower,
the cushioning has gotten thinner. The only improvement really is
that now you have a lot of planes where they
have your own entertainment system. But I rarely even use
that thing. And I'm reading a book because I'm a
civilized fellow who likes to learn, you know, I'm not

(01:39:36):
somebody sits there like, hey, I'm gonna you know, it's
actually not true. I watched like two movies last time
went to California. I watched Hustlers, which was I'm appalled by.
And then there was another one that I watched I
can't remember it is now. Oh, I watched Angel Has Fallen,
which is kind of like White House Down, I think,
but it's the really, really bad movie. People are gonna

(01:40:00):
get bad at me because it's an action movie and
there's Gerard Butler. Gerard Butler was like, Hey, I'm a
Secret Service guy. I'm British, but I think the Secret
Service guys talk like this, so I'm gonna have kind
of an accent like that too. I'm like, he's a
you know, apparently if you're in the Secret Service, you're
you know, like a New York gangster from the twenties

(01:40:20):
or something. I don't know. I always I don't think
British people good do good do good American accents. I
think they always stink at it. But the only thing
that drives me crazier than the well, there are a
lot of things drive me crazy is you know, whistle
some proucer Mark likes to turn on a whistling noise
to just set me off. Thank you, Brandon Forcy Brandon
if producer Marcus salty, producer Brandon is sweet. You know,

(01:40:40):
he doesn't he doesn't, he doesn't turn on the whistling noise.
He doesn't do that to me. But the only thing
that you know, I ride the subway so much here
in New York City, and you know, I'm trying to
do last minute prep for the show and pay attention
to what's going on. Why do people think in crowded
public places there is any setting for your phones notifications

(01:41:02):
that is acceptable other than vibrate. I do not want
to hear the ding ding ding. I don't want to
hear it, not when you get text messages, not when
you get emails. A long time ago in the government,
actually I shared an office of somebody who left on
a ding noise on her computer for emails, and I

(01:41:24):
had to tell her. I was like, I'm going to
throw us both out the window unless you turn that.
You know, ding ding drove me nuts. Noise pollutions very
very bad. You know, all people the way that people
feel about climate change, I feel the way about noise pollution.
I hate unnecessary excessive notes. Don't even get me started
on the backup beeping noise that doesn't save any lives
and drives us all crazy. It's from the seventies people.

(01:41:47):
It's a stupid technology. It's a dumb idea. Thanks for
listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe
on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app for wherever you

(01:42:20):
Roll call time. Yes, indeed, thank you so much. Team.
Let's get to it. Let's make it all happen. Here
we go. I'm just stalling because I lost the page.
There we go, all right, Dennis writes in Buck, your
segment on the uninformed, low information voter was absolutely brilliant.

(01:42:42):
I know. DEM's just as you described, and it's mind boggling, frustrating,
if not downright infuriating, to know they will go vote
for someone for one reason, and one reason only, because
that candidate has D behind their name, not realizing what
negative effect it could potentially have on their lives. I've
often said the most critical issue in the United States

(01:43:03):
is the uninformed voter and citizen. If only we could
get them all to tune into you shields high. Dennis,
you are a wise man and I appreciate your note
for Roll Call very much. Yeah. Look, you know, the
biggest problem with democracy is you get a lot of
dumb people get to vote. So that's not a good thing.
This is why, if I remember back in Plato's Republic, right,

(01:43:30):
the best form of government would be to have a
philosopher king, essentially a person of a perfect a person
of the highest wisdom who can make all the decisions,
because just saying everybody gets to make decisions doesn't really
mean that the decisions are going to be good. So
we see that all the time. Hello New York City, Martin.

(01:43:54):
I can't say I'm truly a religious oss listener, though
I did hit about a third of the weekend shows.
I I find your show much more entertaining and informative
as a single host than when you are fighting for
your voice within a group. I am now and have
been a consistent podcast listener. You had a guest speaker
about Tesla and the stock on your February eleventh podcast.

(01:44:17):
Investor enthusiasm driving up the Tesla stock price is reacting
only to the company turning a profit for the first
quarter ever. Elon Musk and his companies have been given
two point five times as much as the Iranian Mullah's
in terms of government support four point nine billion. The
average household income of a Tesla Model X owner is

(01:44:39):
five hundred and three thousand dollars and the Tesla X
model rather sorry, and the average household income of a
Tesla Model S owner is two hundred and sixty seven
thousand dollars. Do Tesla and Tesla buyers really need subsidies.
I'd like to see what would happened to the E
vehicle industry, and specifically Tesla if the government piggybank stopped

(01:45:02):
shaking out quarters. The gentleman guest, his name is Whitney. Tilson,
by the way, also made a remark about GM employees
preferring to work at Tesla. He's obviously an investment manager
and not an automotive engineer. Take a look on LinkedIn
and see how many Big three four GMFCA engineers work
at Tesla. Tesla is not the draw that an industry

(01:45:22):
outsider might think. If I'm going to purchase an e vehicle,
I'll wait for the company with a sales and service
center down the street to sell me one shields high Wow.
Martin Martin had thoughts on this one. Martin was not
messing around, you know, Martin. I'll try to get I'll
try to get your note to Whitney and see if

(01:45:43):
he has any response comments on this. Yeah, he is
an investment manager, he's not an engineer. Glenn. I am
thinking limiting federal employment to fifteen years might be a
good way to set the mood for congressional term limits.
You have to term limit the bureaucracy if you intend
to term limit elected officials anyway. UM, I don't know

(01:46:07):
how that would really change anything, my friend. I appreciate
you thinking on this one, But why would making a
fifteen fifteen year limit for and by the way, they
get full pensions at that point. Um, I don't really
I don't really see the benefit in saying you could
only if you've already worked for the civil service for
fifteen years. Why not let them finish out their twenty

(01:46:28):
I don't know. I don't really see that, but I
appreciate the thought. Um, maybe I'm missing something. See, I
like to admit that maybe I'm missing something, because it's
always possible. It's rare, but it is possible. Oh, I
told you. I told you, guys. I talked to you
about steak because some of you probably are going to
be making steak for Valentine's Day, for that significant other,

(01:46:50):
for that wife, boyfriend, husband, girlfriend, all that stuff. A
few things about about steak. Um, First of all, you
gotta get a good cut of meat. You gotta get
a good cut of meat. You can make a good
steak with bad meat. So those of you that are thinking, oh,
I'm gonna go get the go to the bargain basement
bin at the local grocery store and pull out the

(01:47:13):
steak that only has a little bit of like blue
fuzz around. No no, no, no, get good meat. Okay,
start with that. If you have a butcher near you
go to butcher's. Butcher's will they love meat? Because they're butchers,
they will man seeyeh, I got I got thoughts. You
go to them and you say, hey, I want to
I want a special cut, you know, ask them for
a butcher's steak. By the way, butchers steak they call

(01:47:34):
it that because the butcher usually keeps it for himself
because it's so delicious, but you don't. It's not that expensive,
so that they don't care as much about selling it
so they can. The butchers will keep them for themselves.
Butchers steak is a great cut. I'm a ribby person.
You could always do Porterhouse if you want, and you know,
a porterhouse Porterhouse also comes with a filet in it

(01:47:55):
with the t bone. You got the part of it
that's kind of a filet, which is always nice. I've
never really been a New York strip person, but if
you want to go that route, you certainly can and
Filet mignon. If you're gonna do bear Filet mignon you
really want, that's the meat that you really want to
go rare on in my opinion, to medium rare, but
air more on the rare side with filet mignon. If
you're going for internal temperature, get him meat thermometer. I thought, like,

(01:48:18):
who use a who uses a meat thermometer? I was
very Get a meat thermometer? You know, you're you're you're
not special, you're not able. You don't have like some
X men's skill where you can tell by touching the
meat what three inches below your finger the temperature is
internally you don't know. Get a meat thermometer. That would
be the most boring X men ever. It's like everyone

(01:48:38):
stand aside. I will tell you if this is rare
or medium rare. Although he would be the most useful
X men in a realistic sense, even sounds like maybe
a villain's name. The meat thermometer. The meat thermometer. Uh
that I have thoughts. So what else I need to

(01:49:00):
tell you about steak? Salt it right before you put
it on the grill, or know or before you sear
it or salt it well before, and then you always
want to pat it dry as well because the moisture
hurts the searing. Trying to think what else is based
with butter at the end you think you don't need it,
it'll make it better based. And also throw a little
bit of herbs in that butter as it's kind of boiling.

(01:49:22):
As it's essentially boiling up because you're throw in a
hot pan, it's gonna cook really quickly, tilt the pan
a little the side, and then and use the basting.
Use a spoon to baste that butter. Rover, it's very
very good. Trying to think what else needs to happen
here for you to resting. Every abways says you gotta
let it rest for at least five to ten minutes afterwards,
I'm just gonna say it. I've done the rest steak

(01:49:42):
and not resting, and I don't notice as much of
a difference as some other people. Apparently, maybe it depends
on the cut of meat, and that's sacrilege. Everyone will
tell you let it rest for five to ten minutes.
I feel like my steak after ten minutes is not
always as hot as I want it. To be, so
I'm not sure that I'm I like the sizzling steak.
I mean I and you know, I don't know. I'm
not a big let Let the steak come down in

(01:50:03):
temperature for about thirty to forty minutes. It'll still be cold.
You don't want it room temperature. That means you've left
it out probably too long. But leave it out of
the fridge for at least thirty I'd say forty minutes
before you see her. I think the reverse your method
is the best. A lot of you like suvied cooking.
Something about cooking my steak in like hot water, though,
just doesn't really appeal to me. It's like a science

(01:50:24):
experiment and you gotta have special equipment for it. The
only special equipment you need to have for the perfect
steak is a cast iron pan. Get a cast iron
you can do you know, a steel well, let's the other.
You know it's not a cast iron, but at whatever.
But don't use like a non stick. Don't use the
pan that you're cooking your eggs in the morning for

(01:50:44):
your steak. Bad idea. Get a cast iron lodge. We
should get Lodge as a sponsor because I have like
four Lodge pans in my home and I use like
all their different products. Lodge is a very good one.
Get a cast iron pan, and uh wow, I really
should I actually we should get the spot. I probably
just sold a bunch of cast iron pants for them
because it just makes a big difference, cooks more evenly,

(01:51:05):
it conducts heat better, and also it either you'll just
see real red meat cooking you want to do with
the cast iron. So that's if you want to do
the perfect steak. I'm telling you, though, those are really
the only things you need to know how to do.
I think reverse here is a good way to go
if the stick is thin. So if you have, say
a flank steak, you could definitely or a skirt steak,

(01:51:27):
you can cook it on a stovetop without having to
go in the oven and do the heere thing. So
I just I'm just here to be helpful team for
Valentine's steak, because everyone knows if you give someone a
perfectly cook piece of red meat on Valentine's Day, you
clearly love them all right. Roll call continues here Rick
writes in do you remember ravishing Rick Rude? By the way,
and just the name Rick just made me remember that

(01:51:49):
because I used to watch a lot of WWF before.
I guess they had to change the name because of
the World Wildlife Federation, Right, that's what happened, because you know,
you know professional wrestling, right, Yeah, No, I mean not
so much now. I mean not as much as I
was as a kid, but I still watched raw and
smack Down. What happened was what happened to super Fly
Jimmy Snooker. He was accused I think of murder, murder right, yeah,

(01:52:12):
his girlfriend, I don't and they caught him like they
like prosecuted him thirty years later or something, right, Yeah, yeah,
it was one of those cold cases. I believe super
Fly Jimmy Snooker because I remember he was. He was
great back in the day. He get on the top
top turn buckle and he did his like leap thing. Yeah.
I was always Who are your favorites back in the day?
Brett the Headman Heart okay, Sean Michaels okay, Big Fan

(01:52:37):
Stone Cold, Steve Auston. Did you see the Rocks daughter
now just signed to the WWE. I did not see that.
She is the first fourth generation a wrestler. It was
a Rock the Rocks Dad and then the Rocks Grandpa.
I didn't know the Rock came from a family to wrestler.
Oh yeah, the Johnson's really yeah, big Simowen culture. I

(01:52:59):
like very much the the Iron the Iron Shake versus
versus Hulk Hogan, Like that's how far back I go?
Do you follow? Then? And Sergeant Slaughter, Remember Sergeant Slaughter
made the crossover. He became a g I. Joe figure
for a while. Yeah, but have you do you follow
um the Iron Cheek on Twitter? Is that a thing? Yeah?
I didn't know that. If you want to, if you

(01:53:20):
want to laugh, follow the Iron Cheek on Twitter. I
used to think was so awesome and so like so
like all America. And and he's had a tough go. Man,
he's been through some stuff. He shouldn't have done the
reality show. Well you were exposed to his awkwardness. Yeah,
I know, it's never really the same. And those guys,
but like the oldtim Warriors, some of these guys took
so much. I mean they were like human test tubes. Man,

(01:53:40):
they took so much drugs to get Warrior died a
few years ago. Do you have a heart problems? Right?
And they thought it was from Uh wasn't it from?
I mean a lot of us from steroid usage or
not a lot of abuse. I mean so many of
them you've got looked back in their fifties or even earlier. Yeah,
I dude, I used to watch it. I used to
watch Royal Rumble. That was the best. I remember. Also
with they made a movie about Zeus, who is a

(01:54:02):
very large African American fellow, and Hulk Hogan. There was
a movie. Do you remember this? Yeah? I think it
was called No Holds Barred, correct. I saw that move
Devo Friday, I remember, I remember that one. Yeah, so
that was his like you know, it's like all he
said in the whole movie. He was a large, strong fellow. Yeah, yeah,

(01:54:24):
all right. Anyway, Rick is not a professional wrestler for
what we said here, writes book. I listened as often
as possible and enjoy your outlook and observation, which I
find most refreshing. When I was eighteen, I joined the
army and learned quickly that if I didn't have a
plan for myself, some other clan would be a clown
would be planning my life. I don't hear any of
the dem candidates encouraging young people to take stock of

(01:54:44):
themselves and engage in a plan for personal improvement. Minimum
wage is not a destination. I agree with you that
we live in the best country at the best time,
with the most opportunity in history. Well, Rick, you seem
like a very wise fellow. Thank you for your service,
and thank you so much for writing in. And yeah,
people need to understand a minimum wage. I mean, you
shouldn't ever feel like you're stuck at the minimum wage forever.

(01:55:05):
I mean, your labors should become more valuable over time,
if nothing else, due to the loyalty to a company,
the ability to take on additional tasks. But minimum wage
sound it sounds more fair to people to have a
higher minimum wage. And so that's it's emotion. It's emotion
over economics, which is so often and look, this is
a thing that is not just about minimum wage. I've

(01:55:26):
read a very interesting piece in the Wall Street Journal
a couple of days ago about how active investors, so
people who think they can pick stocks, are generally wrong
when they compare it to what they would make if
they just put their money in index funds and ETFs
essentially just get as the broadest market exposure they can

(01:55:48):
and grow their wealth slowly and conscientiously over time. That
that Now, this isn't true for everybody. They're obviously people
that are great investors, and that's why. And you can
educate yourself in certain sectors and become But for them,
for most people that are going to invest any money,
by the numbers, it's instead of reading all these prospectuses
and doing all this stuff and trying to learn so

(01:56:09):
much about a specific industry. If you're if you're an
amateur investor who's just doing this with money you've made
doing something else, unless you're going to spend a lot
of time on self education. For most people, it's better
to engage in just index funds and ETFs. But some
people want to invest because they just like the process.
They like to be in that game, so to speak.
So even if they're losing money, they'd rather do it

(01:56:31):
that way. Eric, Right, Hey, Buck, love the show so much.
I have to look out for you. I heard this
Seth McFarland comparison and it made my stomach turn. He's
a crazy lib and has donated over four million dollars
to the Democratic Party. Your voices are good except the yodeling,
So just be you and definitely don't be like Seth McFarland.

(01:56:52):
Shields high from so Kyle. Thanks Eric, I appreciate that. Obviously,
Producer Mark wasn't saying that I am like Seth McFarland.
I think he was just getting at that I sound
sometimes like Seth McFarlane, which you know. I just I
don't want to sound or be like Seth McFarland. I
just want his bank account. That would be nice. I
will take I will swap bank accounts with Seth McFarlane.

(01:57:15):
That would be a good deal for me. I think
it'd be more fun. Kelly buck Oss from the Blaze
days just want to drop a quick note to thank
you for the reverse seer tip. After being married seventeen
years and together for twenty two, it's fun to still
have firsts. This was the first time I ever made

(01:57:38):
my hobbyist steak, as there is no way I could
grill it. Medium Rare, I took your reverse I took
your advice and did the reverse seer and he loved it.
Thank you for giving us another first. Your podcast is
a daily must and I look forward to your fresh
insight and fun impersonations. Producer Mark does a great job
keeping you in line. I laugh because he and I

(01:57:59):
sometimes say the same thing at the same time, which
is also a bit alarming. Keep up the amazing workbox
shields high. Thank you so much, Kelly. I appreciate that.
And look see I told you cook a perfect steak
for your man. No better way to show some of
or for your lady guys. I'm reverse here. I'm telling YouTube.
I'm gonna you know what, I'll do, reverse your video
on YouTube and I'll put it up. How about that?

(01:58:19):
Then people can see me do it, and once you
see how it's done he'd do it, probably you'll be like,
oh my gosh, it's amazing. That's Sexton kid. I'm gonna
make sure I get a lot of people listening to
his podcast and a lot of people watching him on
Pluto TV's channel two forty eight the first because I
want to support what he does, because he has now
changed my red meat eating for all Eternity team. I
