Speaker 1 (00:03):
You are entering the Freedom Hug. The Amy Cony Barrett
hearings are underway today. Democrats so far have got nothing.
Plus a Trump supporter shot in Denver by an alleged

(00:23):
security guard. Could Governor Cuomo be Biden's attorney general? And
the truth about Columbus Day. This is the Buck Sexon Show,
where the mission or mission is to decode what really
matters with passionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a
great American Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a

(00:49):
great guy. No welcome friends to the Buck Sexton Show.
We are twenty two days out from the election, and
in some ways it really doesn't feel like it, does
it not nearly the same kind of frenzy of political
activity out on the streets. We don't have lawns in
New York City, so I can't speak to lawn signs.

(01:12):
But everyone's still locked up inside. Things are getting colder.
People are worried about COVID, and this week we're going
to spend really on a Supreme Court nomination battle. There's
going to be something of a rest spit from the
main effort of the election for a few days. And

(01:33):
we've already seen what the opposition to Amy Coney Barrett
looks like so far, and the answer is it is
unbelievably weak. I mean, it's really quite pathetic. You saw
this over the weekend. You had a number of prominent
news sites that started doing one of two things. They

(01:54):
either changed the definition of court packing to include this right,
which is filling a Supreme Court seat. No, that's court packing. No,
that's called filling a seat. That's not packing. Or they
started to use this phrase de politicize the court, depoliticize

(02:16):
Supreme Court dominations. What the heck does that even mean? Well,
it's what you do when you don't have a real argument,
It's what you do when you're flailing. And clearly the
Democrats are at this point, what are they going to
say the incredibly brilliant, universally beloved mother of seven who
adopted two black children from Haiti and has already been

(02:37):
through a Senate confirmation process to be an Appeals Court
judge and was just pushed through without really any issue
other than being asked, does the dogma? The dogma lives
loudly within you? Which was great for Conservatives, Catholics and
Republicans that that question was out there, but she's already
been confirmed to that. Why would she not be confirmed here?

(02:57):
They have no argument, friends lost. This is nothing but
sour grapes, sore loserism from Democrats. That's all it is.
They have no other argument. History is with the Republicans
filling this seat. Common sense, basic politics. Elections have consequences,
the single truest and most useful phrase that Barack Obama

(03:21):
ever uttered. I think, at least as president, elections do
have consequences, and we are seeing right now what that
can mean. So far, it has been pretty pathetic watching
Democrats dance around the full on assault on Amy Coney
Barrett's character that we all kind of know is coming.
We all believe that they'll do something completely disgraceful or

(03:45):
disreputable here. That's their only option. What else are they
going to say? ACB and I refer to her that
way because it's convenient, but also because it really triggers
the lives they hate that she's no RBG. Correct, she's not,
and for the purposes of a constitutionalist on the Court,

(04:06):
that's a great thing. That's a great thing. But they're
going after everything around this moment. So far, they're trying
to set the stage and set the narrative. You had Democrats.
Senators spend the day talking about how important the Affordable
Care Act is. Senators talking about how Donald Trump has

(04:26):
done a terrible job on COVID. These things have nothing
to do with ACB. Nothing. This is all about. It's
supposed to be about deciding whether or not this woman,
who is eminently qualified to sit on the Supreme Court
is in fact going to sit on the Supreme Court.
That's it. There's nothing else, which is why all along
I've held out that we should have just had the GOP,

(04:50):
should have called for I vote, Have it done and
over with, Allow her to be a vote on this,
get it in the books, get her put in that seat, Dunzo,
move on to the next challenge. That's it. But no,
senators can't help but want to take every opportunity to
give speeches in front of the American people to a

(05:11):
national television audience about how much they love the Constitution,
or about how much Republicans and Donald Trump hate America,
or whatever it is that they're going to say. You're
hearing a variation of a political stump speech. For most
of these senators, nothing particularly worthwhile or interesting for many
of them. Senator Ben Sass of Nebraska gave a Civics

(05:33):
one oh one lesson today. I suppose some people seem
to like it. Other people felt like it was kind
of a waste of everyone's time. Senator Dick Durbin also
did much of the same, going off on some lengthy
speech about the need to protect pre existing conditions and
how the Supreme Court is supposed to be this sacred body,

(05:54):
and none of it really adds up to anything other
than they are upset that they're not getting their way. Now.
I know Sasa is a Republican. I didn't mean to
throw him in there with Durban, but I don't trust him.
It's gonna say, I don't trust the guy as a
Republican at all. I think he's more about Sass than
he is about the GOP, that's for sure. Some of
you can disagree with me, and that's fine. But onto

(06:15):
what they're going to do. Now, they've tried so hard,
they've they've they've tested and then thrown out. They're all
these different narratives. They're still clinging to the weakest of
all I think, which is it was it was Rbg's
last wish. I do not care, neither does any other Republican.
It's not it doesn't matter. Rbg's last wish is not

(06:37):
meaningful for a government proceeding that is representative of what
is best for three hundred and thirty million people. Okay,
doesn't matter the same way that the Democrats pretend. It
does not matter that RBG was on the record and
explicitly against packing the court. So who was it that
tried to pack the court? Just it's it's worth taking

(06:58):
a moment to look back in time for a second.
Who was it? It was? FDR wasn't oh a big Democrat,
the Democrat who ushered in really the overreaching federal government authority,
the enormous fissures and breaks in the Constitution. So it

(07:20):
was in fact the Democrats who once again, as part
of their will to power, tried to push through court packing.
They don't get their way and they want to change things.
It's back in nineteen thirty seven, so it stayed at
nine back then. But that was also because the composition

(07:42):
of the court changed enough and the decisions changed enough
to Roosevelt's liking. What was it about the not the
Green New Deal? Oh, but New Deal legislation. So let's
understand this as we have democrats today lecturing us about
precedent and history and making it up as they go along.
That FDR, perhaps the big government patron saints. I don't

(08:05):
know if you want to call him a saint, but
you know, the big government exemplar of the twentieth century
couldn't get the Supreme Court then to agree that some
of his New Deal actions were in fact constitutional. So
what did he do change the people making the decisions
about the constitutionality? A very Olynskyite approach. Now that's what
he wanted to do. It was not successful, obviously in

(08:27):
the judges stayed at nine, but it was that same impulse.
We have power, we want to do things. We are collectivists,
and we believe in state authority. So we're just going
to go for it. It doesn't matter that there's a
founding document that we're all supposed to adhere to that
creates the basis for all of these government actions known
as the Constitution. It's not supposed to matter. And then

(08:49):
you have this other, this media. It's really amazing, this
media effort where it is almost like and I say
almost because it is like Actually, I'd be willing to
bet that if you were able to track down the emails,
you'd find out that there were members of the media
who are getting emails from Democrat list serves and Democrat

(09:11):
email lists and things telling them to start referring to
the de politicization of the court and also just say
that it's the Republicans who are court packing. This is
classic gaslighting, and that's exactly what they're doing. Now. They
do something, or try to do something. In this case,
they haven't done it yet, thankfully, but they try to

(09:32):
push through a court packing scheme and when it doesn't
work out for them, when they public or at least
the institutions that are watching over this thing, say look,
you guys, they're allowed to do this. You can just
wine and wine. They say, well, yeah, well you're the
ones who are packing the court. What. Yeah, you're the

(09:52):
ones who are doing it. You cheated. This is the
logic of an eight year old who stole a piece
of birthday cake, knows he's about to get and so
he blames his six year old sister. She did it,
Cast dispersions on the other side, undermine them, and hope
that your side is able to get what they want
out of the equation. That's what's happening here. Democrats, in

(10:12):
so many ways do act like a spoiled eight year old.
That's really the central id, the central ethos of the party.
I want, therefore, I demand, I want, therefore I should get.
Constitution can't be an impediment to it, the rule of
law can't be an impediment to it. And even the
stellar credentials of ACB and the fact that here we

(10:34):
have a truly obviously decent, kind, ethical, brilliant person who's
going to be in a role where she will make
good decisions and stay in her lane. She's not going
to be a super legislator. She will at some point,
i'm sure, disappoint conservatives because she won't do things that
are outside of the constitutional scope of a Supreme Court justice.

(10:57):
It's the left, it's the liberals who want something very different.
They want a super legislature that is not accountable to
the people, and that will give them at the key
moments in the courts decision making process, will give them
the laws and the political victories that they want. This
is for all of us to see. It's quite obvious.
It's quite apparent and for all the smarmy lib lawyers

(11:21):
out there with their much heralded credentials because they went
to some institution that is now just churning out erudite
leftists as fast as possible, who have who have bad judgment,
but unfortunately have strong enough legal credentials that they now
largely control the legal profession. I mean, the left has
overtaken not just undergrad programs, but law schools. Speak to

(11:44):
somebody who's gone to law school in the last ten
or fifteen years. There every bid is down with BLM
and social justice and you know, Occupy Wall Street and
all this stuff, you name it, big corporate law firms.
It'd be shocking if Americans actually really understood how far
this leftist ideological rot has extended throughout the legal profession.

(12:05):
But ACB's going to withstand all of that. And here's
my prediction for the week. And this is one of
these predictions where I hope I'm wrong. You will recall
that Brett Kavanaugh was also sailing through stellar credentials, perfectly situated,
gold plated resume for a Supreme Court justice. Nothing about
the guy didn't add up to, yeah, he should be

(12:28):
voted through and that's the way the beginning of those
hearings went till all of a sudden we knew that
there was this allegation that surfaced, and then this woman
showed up, and it was all just run through the
Democrat apparatus. You had very powerful figures prepping and assisting
and pushing for blasi Ford. And then of course two

(12:52):
other women came forward, each one less credible than the
next with their allegations. And there are a whole bunch
of allegations of people that made their way to the
Senate that didn't actually make their way under the Senate
floor because they were so absurd that even the shameless
and disgraceful Kamala Harris and the rest of the Senate

(13:13):
Democrats on the Judiciary weren't willing to use because their
allegations from women who, it was demonstrable, had never even
been in the same state as Kavanaugh, never mind had
actually been the victim of some attack by his hand.
Brett Kavanaugh was a manifestly innocent person and a good man,
and perfectly suited to be a Supreme Court justice. Amy

(13:34):
Coney Barrett is a good woman and also perfectly suited
for the role We're going to go through a few
days here where it'll seem like everything is just fine,
and then at the very last moment, as we were
just a few weeks away from an election, I think
Democrats will spring the trap. I don't know what it is.
It may be a process thing, it may be blocking

(13:54):
access to Capitol Hill. It may be someone coming forward
who claims that they heard Amy Tony Barrett saying anti
LGBT slurs thirty years ago, with no proof and no nothing,
but something along those lines. They're gonna try, and it's
going to be ugly. That's my prediction. So just get

(14:16):
ready for it. We're gonna I think we're gonna go
through a few days of pretty smooth sailing Democrats flailing,
looking weak, looking absurd. But I know, I know this
left wing mentality. I know what this Democrat Party has become,
and they're going to try something ugly and disgusting in
the next forty eight hours or so. You're in the

(14:37):
Freedom und This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Well,
I can tell you that we're getting this question. It's
a common question being asked because American people who have
watched the Republicans pack in the Court of the last
three and a half years, and they brag about it.
They've taken every vacancy and filled it. Did you know
that they've sent to us and we have approved only

(14:59):
with their votes? That might add ten people who have
been judged unanimously unqualified by the American Bar Association. Do
you know how many judicial nominees came from Obama who
were judged unanimously unqualified? None? So we are dealing with
people on the court packed into the court with little
or no qualification, who are going to be there for

(15:19):
a long time. So it's understandable the Republicans raised the
issue of court packing, changing the definition. That's Dick Durbin
on the Senate Judiciary Committee changing the definition of court
packing in real time. That is not what court packing is.
You can say I don't like their nominations, you can
say a lot of things, but you can't say that
that's court packing, which is what they're doing. They're claiming

(15:42):
right now that the words that we are using to
talk about this nomination process don't actually have a specific meaning,
that they can change the meaning of those words in
real time. What is that reminiscent of? There's a great
irony in all this isn't there then, at a time
when we're talking about who should sit on the Supreme Court,
somebody who believes the Constitution is a document that has

(16:03):
meaning and that the words have implications that are not
subject to whims and interpretations not rooted in the actual text. Right,
you have textualists and you have living constitution people. Right,
it's just whatever I want it to be whenever I
want it to be. That we'll look at what the
Democrats are doing right now with court packing. Court Packing

(16:24):
isn't that thing that we've all agreed it is for
as long as we've been using the term. It's some
other thing, it's some other concept. Let me now, let
me now shift into that conversation. It's stunning, it's disgusting,
it's unfair. But that's where we are. That's where we are.

(16:45):
Depoliticizing is the other term we're using. The Associated Press
has heard it a talk about and this was the
quote from the weekend. Bullock said that if Coney Barrett
was confirmed, he would be open to measures to depoliticize
the word, including adding judges to the bench, a practice
critics have dubbed packing. Oh so now, we're gonna see.

(17:08):
This is why I always tell you watch the words
the Democrats use. From a legal alien to a legal immigrant,
to undocumented immigrant to undocumented period, just given documents, then
they're just American like everybody else, right, the same thing
doesn't matter. Look at that. There are so many instances
of this. Oh, pro choice, women's health, women's health rights.

(17:32):
Say abortion, guys, you're talking about abortion. No one has
any problem with any other women's quote health rights. But
they can't use the actual language that we all agree
mean something, because then they'll lose the debate. So what
do they do to change the terms of the debate
when they're not deep platforming, as you can see, when
they're not shutting you down, silencing you, what do they do?

(17:53):
Change the way that you can use the platform, change
the words that are acceptable, change the definition, at least
in the public mind, so that now they can say
whatever they want about a thing. Deep politicizing. Oh okay, sure,
isn't that so? Isn't that so quaint? We all know
what they're trying to do here, We all understand what's happening.

(18:14):
But you're seeing the fundamental dishonesty of the Democrat Party
on full display for all right now, whether it's on
changing the terms of our discussion over the Supreme Court
vacancy that will hopefully soon be filled by Amy Coney Barrett,
or saying that Joe Biden, you know that there is

(18:34):
no right for the people to know there is no
reason for the people to know if Biden would even
engage in court packing. Fundamental dishonesty from all quarters. That's
your Democrat Party in twenty twenty. Thanks for listening to
the show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Church Bird,

(18:58):
your nomination for a life time appointment to the highest
court in the land comes before us under a cloud.
You've been nominated by a president who shows contempt for
the Constitution but does not hesitate to tell his loyal
followers that you are being sent to the bench to
do his political chores, abolish the ACA ruling, his favor
on any election kind of test. And even more, you

(19:19):
cannot feel good about a president cheapening this historic moment,
the future, the affordable character, and so many other issues
hanging into balance. Voting rights, civil rights, the right to
privacy and choice, environmental protection, gun safety laws, marriage equality, dreamers,
work protection. These are the stakes. If we wait just
a few more days, we'll know what the American people

(19:39):
have to say. Yeah, Dick Durban is wasting everybody's time
with this nonsense. But that's what he's been doing for
decades in public office. So no surprise. Why is it
Amy Coney Barrett's fault that Democrats don't like Trump? She's
just been appointed by, Yes, the actual sitting president. Sorry, libs,
it's true, not my president, not my President. I can't wait.

(20:01):
I hope, I hope I get the opportunity to hear
those chants again on November fourth this year, just like
last time, day after the election, right through the Flat
Iron district of Manhattan on Broadway, Hundreds and hundreds of
people on a cold, rainy night, too, marching through the streets.
Not my president's like, Well, unfortunately not true. You can

(20:26):
say not my president as much as you like. It
doesn't actually change the reality. But Democrats like to live
in fantasy lands of their own creation, and then they
watch MSNBC where they see that expounded upon it gets
even more attention. So what Dick Durban here is saying
that there's a cloud under this is just Look, it's
also obvious, right, But the problem is that we have

(20:47):
to smash even the dumbest arguments the Democrats use, because
otherwise it stands out there and they'll say, see, they
have no response, they have no way of telling the
truth about this one. It's also completely inaccurate. Amy klobaschar Oh,
she's outing on the Midwest and she's gonna tall you know,

(21:11):
I was gonna be president. Oh, unbelievable. I do think
she probably would have been better on that stage than
Kamala Harris. But you know, she kind of has a
voice that the registers up around here. Sometimes. Here's Amy
saying that the way to deal with this is to
call out the most psycho libs possible, call them up

(21:34):
and have them harass every Republican member of the Senate.
You know, go go outside, you, Mitch McConnell's house, and
just bang a bunch of pots and pants together. Here
she is clobishar seventeen. Let me tell you a political secret.
I doubt that we will be a brilliant cross examination

(21:56):
that's going to change this judge's trajectory this week. No,
it is you, it is you calling Republican senators and
telling them enough is enough, telling them it is personal,
telling them they have their priorities wrong, So do it.
And it is you voting, even when they try to
do everything to stop you. It is you making your

(22:16):
own blueprint for the future instead of crying defeat. So
do it. This isn't Donald Trump's country, it is yours.
This shouldn't be Donald Trump's judge, it should be yours. Well. Unfortunately,
unfortunately for miss Clovish, are Senator clobush Ar, I'm sure

(22:41):
she would want to be called that the president is
the duly elected commander in chief and executive who gets
to make determinations about who will be on the Supreme
courtin next and it looks like it's going to be
Amy Coney Barrett. And there's a big political problem that
this poses for the Democrats. You'll recall back in twenty sixteen, right,

(23:04):
take it, take a step back, or take a trip
down memory, laying with me here. Back in twenty sixteen,
there was a pretty widespread concern among the political experts
such as they are, and the polsters and all the
rest of them, that this was going to be a
very difficult sell, that Donald Trump was going to be

(23:25):
a very difficult pitch for Evangelicals and for more traditional Christians, right,
not pro choice, left wing socialist Catholics. I don't know
what's wrong with my fellow Catholics out there. Sometimes a
lot of them, a lot of lib Catholics running around
who think that having the state in place of God

(23:46):
is a good thing somehow for their faith. I don't know.
I think it's pretty unfortunate, but that's where we are.
But you'll remember that there were people very understandably concerned
about whether Donald Trump, who is a thrice married billionaire
from New York. Those are just the fact and not
a man who anybody would think of as chaste in
his personal behavior. Again, not judging, but just speaking facts.

(24:09):
Whether Evangelicals and other more traditional morality based Christians, including
a lot of Catholics and conservative and Orthodox Jews, you know,
whether they would be able to come forward and vote
for Donald Trump knowing that he had lived his life
as a more let's say, in a more libertine way.

(24:32):
But the decision that they made was, well, it's not
about Trump personally, it's about the policies, and it's about
what he will pursue in the truth is, Donald Trump
has been among the most, if not the most pro
life presidents in history, based on his statements, his appearance
at the March for Life rally in DC, and everything

(24:53):
that he has tried to do, as well as the
appointment of judges, which is what we're really going to
get into now for a second. As we're heading into
this reelection, and there will be there, right, there'll be
the two conversations about independence and swing voters and base
turnout well for base turnout purposes, Evangelicals and other Christians
on the right have to look at Trump's record and

(25:13):
what he's actually done in office and feel pretty darn
good about the whole thing that their bargain that they
made in twenty sixteen. I'm gonna vote for this guy,
knowing he's imperfect. Of course, some would say, Buck, we're
all imperfect. Knowing he's imperfect from the perspective of Christian
teaching and morality, as again we all are. But what

(25:33):
will he represent as the president of the United States,
What will he be pushing for, and what kind of judges?
Most notably, and this ties into everything, ties into Roe v. Wade,
It ties into gay marriage. It ties into all these
different social issues and social justice issues that will come
before the Supreme Court and continue to well. Neil Gorsich,

(25:58):
Brett Kavanaugh, and soon to be any Coney Barrett, three
of nine judges on the Supreme Court will soon again,
assuming that ACB's nomination goes through, just fine, We'll soon
go through. And once they've gone through, that will mean
or rather once the final one goes through, the President

(26:18):
will have had quite a hand in the federal judiciary.
You add to that all the federal judges. I keep
telling you, Mitch McConnell, Cocaine, Mitch ain't playing no games.
He fills those federal judge seats, doesn't care, just just
keeps the machinery going. Okay, Harry Reid wanted to play hardball,
get rid of the filibuster for judicial nominees. Guess what

(26:43):
shoes on the other foot. As we warned them, it
would be. And Mitch McConnell has been taken this sport
car for a ride. Man. He's having a good time
getting as many constitutionalists as possible onto the federal judiciary,
and he'll have a Trump in his first four years.
Is setting records with this so you're getting judges who

(27:04):
are constitutionalists. But also if you are a Christian and
you believe in religious freedom, if you believe in free speech,
and if you believe in the right to life, Trump
has had a profound impact in his first four years
on those issues with the judicial appointments alone. And to
really put this into stark contrast for everybody thinking about this,

(27:24):
and this will affect I think, and this should I
hope reach some people, because the show is now completely
coast to coast and we're in so many states and
large metro areas that you know, we're very thankful for
how many people get to hear the show. But one
thing that I'm hoping some of you listening to this
will take from it is imagine for a moment, if

(27:44):
Donald Trump had not defeated Hillary Clinton, which I don't
think any other Republican would have been able to do
from that field in twenty sixteen. Look, I don't think
Ted Cruz would have beaten her. I don't and I
was very favorable to Ted in the early days of
the primary. But you know, I thought he had a
really good shot. But I was wrong. And Donald Trump
doesn't become president of the United States, Hillary Clinton, does

(28:07):
you have three not even, not even people of Ginsberg's
intellectual and judicial caliber. I mean, I disagree with Ginsburg.
I think she was a very smart lady and she
understood the law. She also used her position to advance
left wing agenda items. But she was a talented lawyer. Right,

(28:28):
this is this is just calling it what calling it
what it is here. But some of the other picks
that you've seen, I mean, Soda Mayor, her decisions, it
reads like somebody who should who spends all their time,
you know, weeding through comments on msnbcman Soda Mayor on
the Supreme Court is just a judicial travesty. The decisions make.
I mean, we all know. It's just it's just having

(28:50):
a left wing activist, not a particularly keen understanding of
the law, not particularly well versed in our history and judgment.
I mean, look, sodomy Or is a disaster. You would
have had three Sodomyor like judges on the Supreme Court.
In terms of their philosophy, which is just a straightforward hey, sorry,

(29:11):
we want this thing, no matter what the issue is
that the left wants it. Sodomiyor basically signs on for it.
No matter what it is. And if you look at Ginsburg,
I think in Citizens United she was within I think
that one was nine. Oh, but I mean, you know
there were times when there was a civil libertarian component
of Ginsburg. And again I think that she was wrong
and a lot of stuff. But I'm just saying it's

(29:33):
there's wrong, and then there's just not even pretending the
law matters. And I think that's what you get with Sotomayor.
So you see what has Donald Trump done in his
first four years in office. He often talks about the economy,
but his most successful and unchanged by COVID, his most
successful record to point to is on judicial nominations and

(29:55):
the decades long, generations long impact that this president has
already had or will have. I mean, he's already put
this into place. A lot of people that voted from
in twenty sixteen who are like, look, we've just got
to at least get conservative judges. We can have Hillary
in charge. They've got to be not only pleasantly surprised,
they've got to think to themselves, we want more of this.

(30:16):
We are, as Trump used to say, not tired of
winning when it comes to judicial nominations. You're in the
Freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. We've
taken a different path at times, Bort Thomas, Alito Kavanaugh.

(30:37):
I hope we don't take that path with Judge Barrett.
She doesn't deserve that. I don't think it makes this
hearing any better. In the American people, I believe would
not deserve a repeat of those episodes and the Senate
Judiciary Committee's history. To my Democratic colleagues, I respect you all.

(30:58):
We've done some things together, and we've had some fights
in this committee. I've tried to give you the time
you need to make your case, and you have every
right in the world to make your case. I think
I know how the vote's going to come out, but
I think Judge Barrett is required for the good of
the nation to submit to your questions in hours. This
is going to be a long, contentious week. I would

(31:20):
just ask one thing of the committee, to the extent possible,
Let's make it respectful. Let's make it challenging. Let's remember
the world is watching. It's not going to be respectful.
I think we know that much. It's always interesting too,
when you see members of our elected bodies, like the
Senates not even just in the Congress, who are trying
to go after somebody who is just intellectually more adept

(31:43):
and quite honestly more capable than they are. Tony Barrett
is a better legal mind than almost any of the
Senate Judiciary members that will be questioning are, and perhaps
at the same level as all of them. I mean,
I think that you probably is right up there with
someone like a Ted Cruz. I think she is right
up there with someone like a Mike Lee. And I

(32:06):
would bet that they would tell you that that's true.
You know, she's and perhaps even they would say, you know,
in a rare moment of humility for United States Center
or that she actually exceeds their legal knowledge and capability.
So they're gonna be people that are attacking her, and
it's just gonna be pathetic but also upsetting. And I remember, look,

(32:27):
Lindsey Graham, you guys know I gave him a hard
time sometimes because of his you know, I'm gonna get answers.
I'm appearing on Fox tonight and we're gonna get to
the bottom of Russia. Colue. I'm always like, look, lindsay,
come on, you're not There's no Durham report there. You know,
this is the whole I'm gonna get answers. Let me
go on Fox News now. Thing it does, it does
get old after a while. And I just gotta say

(32:53):
what he did in the Kavanaugh hearing though he's kind
of for he's kind of forgotta forever, you know, get
out of jail free card me. I mean that was important.
We were watching the Democrats and they didn't realize it
at the time. Radicalizing the Democrats during the Kavanaugh hearing
radicalized millions of conservatives into wartime conservatives, people who understood

(33:17):
what the ideological battle in this country had shifted to
what it had become. That's what really occurred here, That's
what was really going on. But in the moment, Lindsey
Graham was the one who stood up there and finally
gave voice to those of us at home who wanted
to scream through our television sets. This woman, Blasi Ford
is a liar. This is disgusting. The other women are lying.

(33:39):
It's gross. They have no evidence, they have no support
for their allegations whatsoever. It's all very conveniently timed, isn't it.
That's full of holes. And Emmy Coney, I mean, sorry,
Christine Blasi Fords. These three names get confused in my head.
Blasi Ford said that she couldn't fly and so she
had to drive as a delay tactic, they get more

(34:00):
time to prap and have people, you know, work on
her image and all this stuff. And then we find
out that she used to travel for fun, for vacations
all the time flying. Yeah, she lied. It's a liar. Oh,
she needed two doors installed in her house because she
was so scared about what Kavanaugh did thirty years ago,
which he didn't do. And she couldn't even prove that
she'd ever met him, even in the same building as him.

(34:22):
Couldn't prove it, not even a little bit. I'm gonna say,
prove it. No corroboration, nothing, just an allegation out of
thin air. So Lindsey Graham stood up and he threw
a punch when we needed someone to stand up and
throw a punch at the bullies on the other side.
And I will always be thankful for what he did there.
So that's why I always kind of hold my fire

(34:43):
a little bit, even though I think that on other stuff,
I'm not a big not a big fan of some
of what Grahams were doing. But like I said, get
out of jail free card. So what else are they
going to try this week? I wish I could tell
you I knew they're just gonna say a lot of
this for sure. Play three. When Justice Scalia died in
February of two sixteen, Senate Republicans refused to consider a

(35:07):
replacement for his seat until after the election. At the time,
Senator McConnell said the American people should have a voice
in the selection of their next Supreme Court justice. When
asked in October twenty eighteen if Republicans intended to honor

(35:28):
their own rule if an opening were to come up
in twenty twenty, Chairman Graham promised, quote, if an opening
comes in the last year a President Trump's term and
the primary process has started, will wait till after the
next election. Republicans should honor this word for their promise

(35:49):
and let the American people be heard. Simply put, I
believe we should not be moving forward on this nomination,
not until the election has ended and the next president
has taken office. Nope, too bad. Thanks for listening to
The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts.

(36:10):
The iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. But
these are nonetheless the consequences of her stated views on
the law prevailed on the Supreme Court. And if Republicans
are successful in filling this vacancy prior to November tenth,
well then we know these ullers will almost certainly prevail.
So that's what's at stake here, That's what weighs heavily

(36:33):
on me as we beginning these here. He's also weighs
heavily in the minds of the remonters I represent. I've
heard from them off and then lovely since Justice Skins
breaks past, and they're scared, Judge Barrett. They're scared that
your confirmation would live the gary healthcare protections the millions
of Americans that ought to maintain and which Congress has

(36:55):
repeatedly projected limited. They're scared that the clock will be
turned back to the time when women had no right
to control their old bodies and when it was acceptable
to discriminate against women in the workplace. Sure's your cold
pasture of glay here. Yeah, maybe it's time now do

(37:23):
some oil painting in the backyard. Was the grandkids? Did
these guys ever stop you know how we have an
age requirement for certain offices, right, you have to be
a certain age to be president. You have a certain
age to be in the United States Senate, and a
certain age for the House. You know how we have that.

(37:44):
I think we also at a point now where we
need to consider an upper limit for elected office because
people's egos are overtaking their ability to think fairly and
rationally about whether they are in fact the most energetic,
the most mentally acute, and best representative for the people
in their place, because they just look people want to

(38:06):
be important. You see this in the media all the time.
You see people get addicted to being important and having
other people listen to them and having power and just
being a normal person is terrifying to folks who have
been in that role, have been a senator or for
forty years. Look at Joe Biden, right, look at look
at Lahey, and look at Nancy Pelosi. And you know

(38:28):
I'm telling you honestly, I mean, I think Trump is agewise,
at the upper limit of what somebody should be to
be the president. And Trump is also somebody who has
a tremendous amount of energy and vitality for his age
and is in very good health. In vaccines, we're speaking
about the president's health. He said that he's here. We are, folks,

(38:49):
it's Monday. I said, we gotta wait till monday to
know for sure. The media is not going to focus
on this. I'm just taking take a little break from
the judge stuff for a second. Here Trump's saying he's right,
good to go back in action. Seventy four year old
or maybe three, but seventy plus year old Donald Trump,
with some concern over some additional aggravating factors, got COVID

(39:14):
beat it in three four days. He's telling you himself.
You say he's fine. Doesn't even happen anymore. Play fourteen.
The note that you have revealed from your doctor which
says you are no longer considered a transmission risk. Does
this suggest you no longer have COVID? Sir, Yes, And
not only that, it seems like I'm immune, so I
can go way out of abasement, to which I would

(39:36):
have done anyway, and which I did, because you have
to run a country. You have to get out of
the basement. And it looks like I'm immune for I
don't know, maybe a long time, and maybe a short time.
It could be a lifetime. Nobody really knows. But I'm immune.
So the president is in very good shape. Here we are, folks,
I'm ament of celebration that the media will just ignore president.

(40:00):
It's fine. It wasn't just a stunt. It wasn't just
oh he wanted that shot outside the White House after
he had been released from Walter Reed where he took
off his mask and they were all saying he's Musolini,
because they're psychos, because they're crazy. Another president beat this thing.
And now, really, you see the two narratives. You can
beat Joe Biden. You can be a h gotta wear

(40:21):
the mask all the time, and I gotta be you know,
hey man, I'm a mask mania. And you can avoid
people and stay in your basement. And look, I have
never said that anyone shouldn't. You know, that's freedom. You
want to stay in your basement, you want to not
live your life, fine, but Trump now shows us that no,
you can. You should be able to make the decision
to live your life knowing that there is some risk

(40:42):
that you could get COVID nineteen and yes, knowing that
that means you could in fact transmit the disease to
other people as well, not intentionally, But this is the
world we live in. Viruses are in the air, Viruses
are all over us, actually all the time. People don't
ever talk about that, but it's true. It's really just
a question of your immune system. There's a constant, ongoing
battle between your immune system and microbes. But we don't

(41:02):
think about that very much. But the president beat it.
And there's a study out of Harvard just today that
says that looks like at least four months they think,
according to the study out of Harvard, Harvard Medical School,
will give you protection. So that means Trump is fine.
Trump can go out there and he can shake hands
and high five and kiss babies and all. He's good.

(41:26):
Based on what we know about epidemiology, based upon what
we know of the virus, no reason, no reasonablieve otherwise,
certainly up until the election, and probably deep into twenty
twenty one. So who made the better decision? Really? Remember
they were all jumping on the president and saying, look
at a reckless he is. He got it, yeah, And
they were saying he deserved it, and they were saying
they hope he had a bad, bad outcome. And the

(41:47):
president responded with, Look, I'm the president. I gotta be
out there. I gotta do things. I've got to represent
my people, and that means that there's going to be
some risk. There is risk to the president every time
he goes to any even that's why he's got the
Secret Service with him. Right. This is not a risk
free job, as a number of US presidents from our
past unfortunately can't attest too. But if you look at

(42:09):
the history books and as recently as Ronald Reagan, it
was very apparent to presidents that there are risks with
that job. It is not risk free. There are risks
from bad people, there are risks from bad diseases. That's
just the reality. And now we have a president who
has recovered from the virus and is fine and is

(42:30):
a symboled to so many other folks. If seventy four
year old Donald Trump, now, look, I understand he got
very good care, but they use drugs on him that
they use on other people as well. But Donald Trump, yes,
he got in there early because he was being tested frequently.
But you know, first of all, forty percent of people
they tell us are asymptomatic entirely. So even if you
get this the chances are that there's a good chance

(42:51):
I should say that you will have no symptoms, and
the chances are very high that you'll have very minimal symptoms.
I oh, who is even paying attention to the fact
that the World Health or Organization one of its top
officials over the weekend. Now, look, I know we were
bashing the WHO because it was way too China friendly
with this Wuhan coronavirus stuff in the beginning. Fine, but

(43:12):
they do look at this issue, and we were told
that we should listen to them, and that it was
only just some kind of a Trump conspiracy to even
question the WHO. WHO officials come out and said, look,
we should we should not have lockdowns as the go
to policy. Just said it, just like, look, we should
not do this. This does not make sense. It's too damaging,

(43:35):
it's too costly to society. Stop using lockdowns as the
primary the primary move here. But you know, look, there's
a reason, friends, that the long lockdowns we're seeing were
never considered the wise response to a pandemic in all
the policy and academic literature written on this, and there

(43:55):
was a lot of it before twenty twenty. Actually until
April of this year, the media and our expert class
have failed us. They're never going to admit their catastrophic errors.
But that's what has happened here, that's the truth of
our fight against COVID nineteen. Lockdowns did not work and

(44:17):
exacted a terrible toll on society, one that we can't
even really begin to calculate. A tremendous amount of dress
and stress put on people all across the country. And
if you look at the country by country breakdown, you
know what one of the look one of the single
biggest differentiators here between countries with really bad outcomes and
countries that were pretty okay with this has to do

(44:40):
with the percentage of the population that had serious health
problems before COVID nineteen. That's just the facts. This is
just data and numbers. You know, you look at South Korea,
look at Japan. They have far less diabetes and far
less obesity than we do. And so when you're and
also when you add that to the way that we

(45:01):
calculate COVID deaths, where there are now clear examples right
bright red line kind of examples of someone who dies
from an accident to our self harm, but they test
in the person has COVID nineteen. They say it's a
COVID death, I mean, Dave. And there are incentives in
the system for doctors because you get federal money for
the hospital. There are there are incentives for coding it

(45:23):
as a COVID death. And no one's going to challenge
you or be upseted you for saying it's a COVID
death in the in the sort of consensus media democrat world,
they're going to say, see, this is a person who's
taking the disease seriously. That's what they'll say. It's pretty stunning.
So we continue to see this pretty stunning. Indeed, you're

(45:45):
in the Freedom Mundy. This is the Buck Sex and
Show podcast. So we are now beginning the fastest economic
recovery and history. We created a record eleven point four
million jobs just in the last four months. That's the
fastest ever. The US has seen the smallest economic contraction

(46:09):
of any major nation anywhere in the world. So we've
seen the smallest going down. If you look at it,
that's an incredible statement. Our opponents will crush to come
back with unscientific lockdowns. They want to lock everything down.
Here we go again. They want to lock it down
now we're not gonna let it happen. We're not gonna
let it happen. So important you get out in vote.

(46:31):
You got to get out in votes. Not going to
be a second lockdown, music to my ears, at least
at the federal level, especially as I have to sit
here and worry about what they're going to do in
New York, where I believe we are going to go
into an extended lockdown again in New York City, at
least where I'm currently doing the show. I remember when
I spoke to the President in May and I was
in the Oval office with them, spent forty five minutes

(46:53):
or so close to an hour, I think, sitting there
just talking about everything, just the two of us, nobody
else in the room, and one thing that I really
wanted to hammer home, and he completely agreed with me.
To his credit, he completely agreed with me on this.
I just said, Sarah, we can't do a second lockdown.
This is madness. And he said, Buck, there's not going
to be a second lockdown. We're going to put out

(47:13):
the fires as they come up, but there's not going
to be a second lockdown. It was, you know, that
was a one time thing to get us prepared because
we were caught off guard by this. You know, we
didn't have the you know, the ppe and the ventilators
and all these things that everyone said that they were
going to need so badly. So so far, the President
has kept his promise on that one. And I asked him, said,
promised me, You're not going to do that, Sara. He said,

(47:33):
We're not going to do that. So that's a promise
so far that has been kept. And I'm happy that
the President understands why that would be such a bad idea.
But I'm also deeply concerned because with Democrats, this is
this is now an article of faith. They're going to
want to have a lockdown and then have Biden bring
us out of it, and in his own good time,

(47:55):
federal mask mandate. He's saying this, And I keep asking people,
if we're gonna federal mask mandate, why not have a
federal mask and goggles mandate? I mean, why not really
go all in, right? Why not we could make enough
goggles for everybody. Shouldn't we all to wear goggles and
a mask? And then shouldn't we just do a full
hooded ventilator system so that you really are actually getting
protect that works, whether that would protect you from the virus,

(48:16):
But why too expensive? Too much? I thought this was
about saving lives. Notice how the way that they the
way that they argue with people like me who will say,
masks probably have some effect. I don't know how big
it is. I I don't deny that it is helpful
in some circumstances, in some ways, but it's minimal, it's insufficient.
It's not enough to stop this thing. Obviously, it wasn't

(48:37):
enough to stop the Spanish influenza pandemic of nineteen eighteen,
when they had mask policies in cities by the way,
and people were dying and numa's were Trust me, nobody
was like saying, hey, you know, I'm just gonna go
out there. I shouldn't say nobody. There's always people, but
you know, people were wearing masks, folks, And I'm sure
the people that stopped wearing them in nineteen eighteen were
the ones who said, this isn't saving us, so what

(48:59):
are we even doing? But anyway, I just note that
the Biden campaign has made this a huge, a huge
virtue signal, which we all know, which is why I
don't think I've seen a photo of Joe Biden out
without a mask on. I don't even know in how
many months other than at the debate obviously, who knows
that they're even going to be a second debate. But

(49:22):
I'll tell you this. I rode on an Amtrak train
yesterday and I just have to kind of laugh. Here's
what here's the little window into the future of what
you get if you allow democrat status types to determine
how we're going to respond to this pandemic. For the future,

(49:42):
this is what your life is going to be like,
not just for all of next year, maybe deep into
twenty twenty two. You're going to have policies like I
sat sat there on amtrack dealing with this where you
have no one's allowed to sit next to you. Now,
I think maybe if you're of the same it's same household,
but who even knows. With that, you'll see these experts

(50:04):
that are right, hey, when you're having you know, special
fun fun time with the your significant other, well, you
gotta make sure you wear that surgical mask to protect
the protect them from COVID. That's a real thing. I
know you're some of you are giggling. That's a real thing.
Got to wear the mask for special fun fun time. Okay,

(50:25):
that's the craziest thing, I think, I mean, how much
and then take the mask off while you sleep next
to each other in the same room, in the same
bed for the rest of the night. Right, But you know,
a husband and wife doesn't matter. Gotta protect each other.
It's absurd, it's stupid. We all know it's stupid. But
I just point out all the stupid policies and people
get mad at me, and I say, well, are we
just supposed to all do dumb things because some people
are scared and so they get to make all the

(50:47):
decisions for all the rest of us. You know, you
could go swimming in the ocean and get eaten by
a shark tomorrow. It can happen. In fact, I think
the most commonplaces in the country for sure. I think
the most commonplace in the world for shark attack might
even be on the coast of Florida. I think it's
what's right up there. It's coast of Florida, east coast
of Australia and off South Africa. That's where you have

(51:10):
the most certainly the most shark attacks in total. I
think the most fatal shark attacks too. Now, why am
I talking about shark attacks? Because if I ran around
telling everybody who's going into the ocean, what are you doing?
You could be eaten by a shark. Technically true, but
I think people should be allowed to swim. Now, I
understand they're far more people getting COVID shark attacks, but

(51:31):
I'm just saying that when it comes to day to
day risk mitigation or our own lives, people should be
allowed to make their own decisions. And for people who
say things like, oh, well, look what about seatbelt laws, buck,
I'd say, yeah, plenty of people don't wear their seat belts.
I got news for you. Plenty of people still don't
do it, still don't do it. And also the fine
for now wearing a seatbelt isn't fifteen hundred dollars or

(51:54):
prison time. It's like a fifty dollars. Who cares? And
you know that's also just acting you, that's not affecting
anybody else, And it's it's such a minor inconvenience that
even I think some libertarians say, all, I mean, you
know whatever, wearing a mask, it's not a minor inconvenience.
It's I'm really annoying it's oppressive, it's psychologically deleterious. I

(52:16):
really have I believe that I'm gonna go to the
gym today. I'm gonna be doing deadlifts with a fricking
mask on, like an idiot, alone because no one else
will even go to the gym because they're so scared.
Where I am alone in you know, a room that's
probably fifteen hundred square feet with the windows open, But
got to wear that mask while I'm deadlifting. It's it's insane, right.
But so back to the Amtrak. So I'm on the

(52:37):
Amtrak where you know, blue collar Joe takes it. You
know how long the Amtrak Acela is from Delaware to
to DC to Capitol Hill. It's actually like the greatest
commute imaginable in a lot of ways, at forty five minutes.
I don't know, maybe it's forty five minutes to Baltimore,
but anyway, it's like an hour. It's like an hour.
It's quick. And that's what Joe Biden was doing, you know,

(52:58):
once or twice a week or something. It wasn't even
that often. It's crazy, But I'm on the a sell up.
They won't let somebody sitting next to you, but you
have people mandating because it's a sign seating now sit
in front of you and behind you. And I was
sitting across from somebody, and I kid you not. She
had she had a little mask on, and she pulled
the classic Biden maneuver. Remember when Biden pulled down his

(53:19):
mask to cough into his hand and then pulled his
mask bask back up again. She had a coughing fit,
you know, coughing right, you know, right next to me,
pulled her mask off for the coughing fit. So just like,
you know, based on what we're all told, just like virus,
virus everywhere, right, all kinds of whatever. She's got, just
coughing all over the place, and then pulled her mask

(53:40):
back up. And I'm sitting here like, oh gee, thanks,
So I got the coughing, which is actually expelling the virus,
you know, fifteen feet or whatever it is. But but
the mask wearing, you know, when you're breathing. It's so dumb, folks.
And then I sit around people who are you're eating
a bagel of cream cheese no mask on for you know,

(54:02):
thirty or forty minutes, but for the last twenty minutes
of the trip. I put that mask back on because
that's going to protect us. It's idiocy. You know it's idiocy.
It makes no sense. Don't listen to the lockdown libs
who judge you and mask shame you. Thanks for listening
to the Bus Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts,

(54:22):

is Columbus Day. It is not Indigenous People's Day. It
is Columbus Day, name for Christopher Columbus, the Italian explorer
who on behalf of the Spanish crown, discovered the New
World change global history, and is somebody who for this accomplishment,

(54:48):
we celebrate him, right. We don't celebrate him because he
was a nice guy, because he was just a big
old cuddle bear. We celebrate Christopher Columbus because he's somebody
who changed the course of history and brought about a
change in the historical trajectory that resulted in a system,
the American system, that then spread around the world that

(55:10):
has resulted in more people living longer, healthier, better lives.
More people pulled out of poverty in the twentieth century
into the twenty first century alone than at any other
time in human history, and probably all of the rest
of human history added together. I know that sounds mind boggling,
but it's true. Here's a proclamation on Columbus Day from
the White House. More than five hundred years ago, Christopher Columbus,

(55:32):
in trepid voyage to the New World, ushered in a
new era of exploration and discovery. His travels led to
European contact with the Americas, and a century later, the
first settlements on the shores of the modern day United States. Today,
we celebrate Columbus Day to commemorate the great Italian who
opened a new chapter in world history, and to appreciate

(55:53):
his enduring significance to the Western Hemisphere. When Christopher Columbus
and his crew sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on the
Nina Pinta and Santa Maria, it marked the beginning of
a new era in human history. For Italian Americans, Christopher
Columbus represents one of the first of many immeasurable contributions
of Italy to American history. As a native of Genoa,

(56:14):
Columbus inspired early immigrants to carry forth their rich Italian
heritage to the New World. Today, the United States benefits
from the warmth and generosity of nearly seventeen million Italian Americans,
whose love of family and country strengthen the fabric of
our nation for our beautiful Italian American communities and Americans
of every background, Columbus remains a legendary figure. Sadly, in

(56:37):
recent years, radical activists have sought to undermine Christopher Columbus's legacy.
These extremists seek to replace discussion of his vast contributions
with talk of failings with discoveries of atrocities, and his
achievements with transgressions. Rather learn from our history. Rather than
learn from our history, this radical ideology and its adherents

(56:58):
seek to revise it, deprived of any splendor and market
as inherently sinister, they seek to squash any descent from
their orthodoxy. We must not give into these tactics or
consent to such a bleak view of our history. We
much teach. We must teach future generations about our storied heritage,
starting with the protection of monuments to our intrepid heroes
like Columbus. This June I signed an executive order to

(57:21):
ensure that any person or group destroying or vandalizing a
Federal monument memorial or statue is prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law. I've also taken steps to ensure
that we preserve our nation's history and promote patriotic education.
On this Columbus Day, we embraced the same optimism that
led Christopher Columbus to discover the new world. We inherit

(57:43):
that optimism, along with the legacy of American heroes who
blaze the trails, settle the continent, tame the wilderness, and
built the single greatest nation the world has ever seen.
In commemoration of Christopher Columbus's historic voyage, the Congress, by
joint resolution of April thirtieth, nineteen thirty four, requested the
President proclaimed the second Monday of October each year as

(58:03):
Columbus Day. Now, Therefore, I Donald Trump, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested
in me by the Constitution and the Laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim October twelfth, twenty twenty as
Columbus Day. I call upon the people of the United
States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
I direct that the flag of the United States be

(58:23):
displayed on all public buildings on the appointed day in
honor of our diverse history and all who have contributed
to shaping this nation. In witness here of I've here
unto set my hand this ninth day of October and
the year of our Lord two twenty and of the
independence of the United States of America, the two hundred
and forty fifth Donald Trump. That's just one thing that

(58:44):
if Joe Biden becomes your president, you can kiss all
that kind of stuff goodbye. Joe Biden will be showing
up talking about Indigenous People's Day. You know, it's fascinating,
isn't it. For BLM Democrats war Kente ploth scarfs you
remember that. I mean it was Nancy Pelosi Kent take
cloth scarf? Right? What such a shameless pandering, such demagoguery,

(59:09):
and among many others Chuck Schumer. Yeah, because they're really
all about They're really all about, you know, African history.
I mean, but Joe Biden, you know, I might show
up on Indigenous People's Day. What I mean, I don't
know was he gonna wear it, wear a a feathered
headdress or something, or is that is that? No, that's
not allowed. Kent take cloth is allowed, but Native American

(59:31):
garb or anything like that not allowed, seems to who
knows where the rules are different from the left than
on the right, that's for sure. But all of this,
this talk of American optimism and the brilliance of Columbus
and what he did, that will all be entirely forgotten.
And there's another part of this history that's forgotten as well,
and that's Columbus as as a as a point of pride.

(59:53):
And one would think if they really looked back, and
I think if more people knew this history, particularly if Democrats,
by the way, don't know his They know a little
snippets of history that are useful for the socialist left
narrative of control today, but they don't actually know history
as as just a broad thing. They generally have no
idea what the heck they're talking about. And I mean
the ones that are making these arguments. I mean, I

(01:00:13):
mean the sixteen nineteen project, which now people are calling
for it to be stripped of its pulitzer, which will
never happen, even though it's it's changed its mission statement.
That's how that's how fraudulent that whole thing was. They've
said it was about establishing a new day for the
American founding. And now they're saying, no, it's not about that.
We've we've scrubbed that. Not not true. Oh interesting, But

(01:00:37):
people forget the struggles. You know, there have been waves
of immigration into this country in the past, and the
struggles that different immigrant groups had, notably Italian Americans who
did face real discrimination. And I know people hear this
now and they think, come on, Italian, we got you know,
Cuomo is the governor of New York and you know

(01:00:59):
Rudy Julia Annie was the America's most famous mayor. You
think of all these Italian Americans who have big political
names and have become so well known. But if you
go back into history a little bit, there were some
very ugly incidents of bigotry against Italian immigrants in this country.

(01:01:19):
And Columbus Columbus Day was was a thing that they
drive tremendous pride in because the Italian Americans were generally
doing menial jobs when they got he or didn't speak
the language were and especially for those who were more
Sicilian and from you know, further south and more central
in the Mediterranean Sea, they were known to be usually

(01:01:42):
a little bit darker, and so there was there was
a racial component that would come out to the anti
Italian rhetoric of the time. And I know now it's
it's like talking about anti Irish bigotry. Irish were banned
from or barred from jobs, Irish need not apply. Irish
weren't allowed to where Irish were thought of as criminals.
Irish were thought of as as as thugs, thieves, untrustworthy.

(01:02:06):
Now then the Irish became you know, they went from
being the quote thieves to then becoming the cops in
pretty much every major American city and then running you know,
the political machinery, and now you know, they're all over
the place, right And I'm basically half Irish by by heritage,
roughly roughly fifty percent Irish, and of that stock, my
ancestors came over on one side during the Potato famine

(01:02:28):
in eighteen forty and settled in Brooklyn, New York, just
got right off the dock, and this is where they were,
and that's why I've got I've got very long roots
here in New York City. But the Italians, there's one
incident that comes to mind. I mean, there were eleven
Italian Americans who were lynched. Also another thing, lynching was

(01:02:48):
a terrible crime that was done mostly but not exclusively,
against African Americans from around eighteen called eighteen seventy, getting
into about reconstruct era into the nineteen twenties or so,
you had a few thousand people in the United States
who were lynched, and about two out of three were

(01:03:10):
African American, but there was about a third of the
lynchings that occurred were not the horrible crimes perpetrated against
African Americans. There were. There were terrible crimes against against
other people, including whites who were trying to push for
black rights in the South. There were a whole number
of them who were lynched, and immigrants, different immigrants were

(01:03:32):
lynched in eighteen ninety one. I don't even know how
many of you would would know this this story. New
Orleans one of my favorite cities in America. I love
New Orleans. It's such a fun place and it's such
such a cool mix of different cultures. But it wasn't
always a happy place with regard to how those cultures
interacted with each other. That's and that's putting it mildly.
I'm depending on the time in history, you can obviously

(01:03:53):
point to a whole lot of problems there, but there were.
There was an assassination, effectively. I believe it was the
police chief. It might have been the mayor of New Orleans.
I have to go check. I think it was the
police chief, and he was killed. And they believed that
it was the Italian American population. This was eighteen ninety
one in New Orleans. They thought it was the Italian

(01:04:14):
American population. There already was this sense of mafia ties
and criminal activity with the Italians, and they and they
had already had a number of people tried and acquitted,
and they were still being held in the jail for
some reason, and others were still awaiting trial. And a
mob formed broke in and murdered, murdered, hanged and mutilated.

(01:04:34):
So they shot them, and then some of them they
hang and they ripped apart the bodies. They took body
parts as trophies. Eleven Italian Americans killed in eighteen ninety
one in New Orleans for I mean maybe one person,
and I would be willing to bet a whole lot
of money it wasn't one of the eleven. From what
one person did to the to an official of the

(01:04:56):
city of New Orleans, eleven lynchings all at once. So
there was a dark there was a dark history here
of discrimination against against immigrant groups, including Italian Americans. And
Christopher Columbus is part of the the pride, and that's
why they'll talk about the pride the Italian American community fields.

(01:05:17):
But hey, you know, we were early contributors to this
American project, right it was it was an Italian who
even discovered this place. It's an Italian a Metago Vespucci,
for whom this country is named. And so that's all
part of you know, it's interesting the left sees this
need for other groups to have heroes elevated, and and

(01:05:40):
they're right in many cases about the heroes that they're choosing, right,
you know, they're they're a right to want to elevate um,
you know, people from the Latino and the African American
community who have contributed to this country throughout its history
and ways. Absolutely, and I'm all for that, right, I mean,
I think that you could you could argue that, you know,
Frederick Uglas is one of the true founding fathers in

(01:06:01):
many ways in this country. But with Italian Americans it's
considered it's all a sacrifice to wokeness now and that's why.
Not far from where I'm doing the show is the
large statue of Christopher Columbus in Columbus Circle, named for him,
where I used to avoid the area because that's where
CNN's headquarters were and I didn't want to bump into

(01:06:24):
bump into Zucker and challenge him to a breakdancing battle.
That would have been good Instagram content. But now it's
Christopher Columbus statue there has to be guarded by the
police because they know they're going it's going to be defaced.
It's going to be defaced because the Left is decided
that the history of this country is really a history

(01:06:44):
of exploitation, rape, genocide, imperialism, murder, theft, and exploitation. And
what's interesting is that, I mean, depending upon how they're
going to set up their parameters for how they would
judge any country, you could say that about any great civilization.
There's always violent, there's always wars, there's always internet scenes, struggle,

(01:07:05):
there's always all of these things. But is that the majority,
Is that what most of the history really was, or
did it create a society where people overwhelmingly lived in
peace prosperity and some degree of happiness. America is the
greatest nation state that has ever been the greatest force

(01:07:25):
for good in the world, and it's only possible because
of people who are willing to take risks and willing
to be leaders. Christopher Columbus certainly played a large role
in all of that. And Columbus is somebody who I
think we are right to honor for the accomplishment and
that is it for the discovery. No one is saying

(01:07:47):
that everything he did was great, or that he was
a perfect or wonderful man, or just saying this guy
made it. It's like he won a big race and
we are giving him the trophy for the race. And
that's it. You're in the Freedom, hud. This is the
Buck Sexton Show podcast. I think this is a perfect

(01:08:10):
time to tell you all that we already have the
next Shield's High episode done and we're going to I've
been talking to producer Mark. We're going to create a
series of them, so I have a bunch to release
in succession on a predetermined schedule at once. But that's
for those of you who are listening to the radio
show right now on a radio. One of our wonderful
affiliates across the country. This is another reason why we

(01:08:31):
really need you to subscribe to the podcast of The
Buck Sexton Show, because this is not going to air
on the terrestrial station. It's only gonna be a podcast extra.
Already have one done the First Siege of Malta. There's
gonna be two Siege of Malta podcasts. I think there's
gonna be two Lepanto podcasts, which will be different from
the one I did years ago for a whole bunch

(01:08:51):
of reasons. And I'm also considering, just as a little
special gift to producer Mark, doing a Dracula history podcast
or release this year on Halloween. I'm thinking about it,
so we might that one I might not have time
to get to, but the other ones are already happening.
So just please do subscribe to The Buck Sexton Show

(01:09:12):
the iHeart app. You can also subscribe in the Apple
Podcast Store or on Spotify, which is very easy. I
know they're a bunch of libs who are trying to
get rid of Joe Rogan or censor him or whatever,
but they also paid him one hundred million dollars, so
there's that. But Spotify is a very easy interface once
you start using it. I was skeptical of it at first,
and I've got to say I use it all the

(01:09:33):
time now. So quite as great as the Guy Heart
Radio app. Though no, no, the IR radio app is
way better obviously. But I'm just trying to give people options.
I'm just gonna give people options, and so we'll do that.
That's the plan. But we already have one in the can,
so Producer Mark, and he's got it. Producer Mark, can
you confirm receipts? Everybody knows I'm not just blown smoke.
I will give you this one. He did actually record

(01:09:55):
a podcast. There you go, the history the first Shields Hype,
not the first one, the most recent shield Ties in
the can. I'm gonna have another one done and we're
thinking we're gonna start releasing them in November, take it
into December, and then people have some fun stuff to
listen to over the holiday period if they didn't get
to it during the weeks. So we released them, you
can listen them all in succession, and that's that's the plan.

(01:10:17):
And all this Columbus they talked too has got me.
I mean, I want you guys to understand, Wait, why
was Columbus trying to find the new world. We always
hear he wanted to find the route to the spice
markets and the riches of the far east of South
Asia and what is and China. But also they wanted
to do an end run on the Muslims on the
Ottoman Empire. They wanted to get around them because they

(01:10:39):
knew that with a stranglehold on trade, the Ottomans were
so wealthy, so influential and powerful, especially once they took
out the Mamok the mam Looks in Egypt and then
added the Barbary the Barbary coast to their empire that
they needed to find a way around this or else
they would not be able to economically keep up and
the Ottoman conquest would cane and just take in all

(01:11:01):
of Europe. So Columbus and his voyage in fourteen ninety
two plays directly into that and the period that I'm
talking about with the Siege of Malta, and really part
one is what leads up to the Siege of Malta.
Would you be basically the first half of the sixteenth century.
I know we're nerding out a little bit here, but
you're gonna love it. The Buck Sexton Show. Subscribe to

Navy veteran and Trump supporter murdered in cold blood over
the weekend at a protest. Why isn't this a bigger

(01:11:43):
news story? You're probably asking, Well, I think we all
know why. Lee Keltner, who had been a long time
hat maker in the Denver area. Lee Keltner was attending
a protest, according to his why, to show his support
for police and Robert Matthew. Robert Doloff was contracted as

(01:12:10):
a security guard for I nine News, some local news
outfit in Denver, and theyre ins on video. There's photo
of this exchange too. You have Keltner. It looks like
they exchanged words in the video. There's different photos and
videos out there. They exchanged some words, I'm sure you know,
hostile ones. I think Keltner slapped Dolof across the face

(01:12:35):
and then at a distance of what looks to be
about ten or fifteen feet, sprayed some mace out in
the air. There's big photos of this all over the internet,
and Doloff just drew his weapon and dropped the guy
right there, shot him right in the forehead, killed him instantly.
How he could think he was in any kind of

(01:12:58):
real peril from somebody's bringing mace from ten feet away
at a protest? Remember their police all over the place.
This is broad daylight. There's a protest. This guy Dolof
just pulled and shot, shot him right in the forehead.
Also tell you this, generally law enforcement, you know, you
shoot for somebody in the head, very easy to miss
even a close distance. This guy doesn't have any law

(01:13:21):
enforcement training, has no law enforcement background. In fact, Doloff,
who is currently being held on first degree murder charges
as he should be, Doloff is somebody who doesn't even
have an active license on file or no license at
any point to be a private security contractor. Now I'm

(01:13:41):
nine News is saying they went through the Pinkerton Security
Agency to get this armed guard. Why would I nine
need an armed guard at a protest where there's police present.
It's interesting, isn't it. You're gonna have an armed guard
with you. I thought these were peaceful protests. Let's just
start with that. That's where we've been told so many
times it's all about peaceful protests, but local news reporters

(01:14:04):
think they need somebody who's strapped, who's just with them
all the time. Wait. I thought that the journals don't
like guns. I thought that gun ownership is bad. This guy,
dole Off had a concealed carry permit, no special no
professional training with a fire and whatsoever. So he's just
a guy with a gun. And Pinkerton, a security agency,

(01:14:25):
didn't know this. There's something fishy here, folks. Something is rotten.
There's something we're not being told. And based on the
political back and forth over this, I have some ideas.
I have some ideas about it. For one, this was
initially reported as a shooting by an Antifa member, and

(01:14:48):
then people like me said, well just wait this week,
we'll be told over and over again that the right
wing is responsible for all violence. And they said, see,
it's not an Antifa guy, And I said, I don't,
I don't. They're still gonna say that the rights are
responsible for all the violence. Doesn't It doesn't change anything.
And I've said, and okay, well, what do we know
about Dolof? How does a guy with no security training

(01:15:09):
or background, become a private security contractor for a local
news organization in Denver. Well, what comes to my mind is,
you know, there are times when, for example, in a
country that's in the midst of some kind of a
civil war, you'll pay off one member of the militia
or a couple of members of a militia to provide

(01:15:30):
security for you. Sometimes you'll actually contract with the bad
guys to protect you, so to speak, right, that's the
safest thing to do. You know, if you're going to
go into parts of Lebanon, you know you asked for
permission Hezbollah. So I have to wonder here, and this
is again this is analysis. I am piecing this together.

(01:15:51):
I have to wonder if this was a situation where
the best they thought, the best protection for I nine
was to have a guy who Antifa knew and didn't
have a problem with. Now they're gonna say he's not
a member of Antifa. They don't know, and already it's
come out online. Guess what this guy Doloff who drew

(01:16:12):
his weapon and shot a guy in the in the head,
who posed no mortal threat to him whatsoever. He's in
a Supremember, he's in a security guard role. He knows
he's strapped. He's supposed to be de escalating. He's supposed
to walk away from this conflict, not a law enforcement officer,
not affecting an arrest. And what we find out about
him is that he who wants to guess, is Doloff,

(01:16:34):
Robert Matthew Robert Dolof who's in custody. Is he an
Antifa guy? M Is he a radical left wing guy
who loves the protesters who are doing all the antifa stuff? Yes,
he is all over social media, So we are to
believe it is a coincidence. That's some some you know,

(01:16:57):
scraggly looking, skinny guy with no military or law enforcement
or even private security training whatsoever, just happened to be
the armed guard contracted to protect a local news station.
That I'm sure he's very favorable to all the BLM protests,
because Denver is overrun by leftist lunatics except for the
wonderful folks, for example, who listened to this show on

(01:17:18):
ninety three seven, one of our favorite affiliates. But we're
told this is a coincidence. It just so happened that
this guy has photos of himself at Occupy Wall Street
protests in the past, is supportive of BLM and is
effectively in his public pronouncements online a left wing radical. So,
a left wing radical gets contracted to be the security

(01:17:40):
provider for a local news station murders a pro police
Trump supporter in cold blood, and we're supposed to think, oh,
it was just a bad security guy. No, this was
a leftist. This goes on their Ledger friends, this goes
on their side of the body count from political violence.

(01:18:00):
This guy's a leftist. That he was contracted as a
private security guard doesn't mean anything. He's a Bernie Sanders
loving ANTIFA supporting BLM, social virtue signaling leftist. And he
pulled a gun and he shot a guy because he
got heated. That's it really not very different. And he

(01:18:22):
was what he was doing was criminal, by the way,
to be posing as a security that's actually a criminal
violation in Denver. Can't do that. Can't be a security
guard for somebody who's really just actually a guy who
has a gun for reasons like this. And they're going
to tell you that this has nothing to do with
the left, nothing to do with the Democrat Party. You know,

(01:18:44):
I guess he was just killed by an idea. Yeah,
the media working very hard to make sure that this
guy is not considered a leftist who murdered a Trump supporter,
and the anti Trump anarchists who are planning to kid
nap Governor Whitmer are treated like they're all run around
in MAGA shirts. In reality, they say Trump is an

(01:19:05):
evil tyrant who won't do what they want, and they
want to bring down all of society. They're anarchists. But
somehow this is on the right. That's what they'll tell us.
That's what all the news reporting has said, even though
there's video of these guys saying how much they at
least one of the guys, one of the ring leaders,
saying how much they hate Trump. You know, this is
another one of these instants where you say why is

(01:19:26):
it that when oh, you know who organizes rally was
John Tegan Tigg from Thirteen Hours the movie, who was
a contract or, one of those contractors that was defending
Americans against the terrorist attack in Benghazi, who was very
very severely wounded, if memory serves, fighting to defend the facilities,

(01:19:47):
those US facilities, the annex and that special Consulate compound
or whatever it was where they had Ambassador Stevens so
tig pulled this together. This it was a patriot rally
and there was a Antifa soup drive they called it.
That had to go there a counter protest. Do you
know why they're doing these counter protests? You won't often

(01:20:09):
hear there's from people. I think it's important that we
all get this on the record. The counter protests are
meant to intimidate. They're meant to shut down speech that
they don't like. There's no point in why why hold
a counter protest for you know, fifty or one hundred
patriots gathering in downtown Denver to say they backed the
police and they support Trump and their patriots. What's that?

(01:20:29):
What's the harm in that no Antifa shows up to
menace them, to say, see, we can get one hundred
with a two hundred people here and the moment the
cops aren't looking, we're gonna hit you in the head
with a lead pipe, and then say we're mostly peaceful.
We're mostly peaceful. You should see the mug shots. One
hundred percent of them white, one hundred percent of them

(01:20:51):
look like exactly what you would think Antifa losers look like.
Over the weekend in Portland that that were arrested. These
are white libs who think they're fighting some war on
behalf of BLM against the authorities in Portland who were
all Democrats. But it's amazing. You look at these photos

(01:21:12):
and they all they all look like Antifa. You look
at them and go, yep, that's what Antifa looks like.
Who are just kind of crazy looking eyes and sort
of scraggly, and you know the whole thing. This guy
dole Off looks like somebody who would be an Antifa.
He looks like an Antifa guy. Amazing, anybody would think
he's a good security guard. Although I'm sure he probably

(01:21:32):
told them guy, I know an you know, don't worry.
I know these groups, and that's what we're gonna find out.
By the time we find that out, though, people are
forgotten about this one. And that's that's how he was
able to get in here. Oh, I know this gang,
I'm cool with them, don't worry about it. You'll be
safe from Antifa. That's probably the protection that he was providing, right, trust,

(01:21:53):
how often do you think I'm wrong about these kinds
of things? Rarely? So we'll see if a Denver p
least I don't even know how left wing they are
and how willing I'm when I say the police, I'm
talking about the brass. I'm talking about the people running
running the department, whether they're willing to get to the
truth here or not. They are holding him on a
murder one charge. It looks like he's in a whole

(01:22:15):
lot of trouble. This is this is not a justifiable
use of force. If Keltner had jumped on top of
him and was you know, pounding his head into the pavement,
or had a gun on him and drew for it.
And you're a security guard, you're in that professional role.
You're arm somebody else isn't, and you know you're getting
rowdy with them. And if you see there was a

(01:22:35):
guy I think he's a producer from my Nights I
nine saying horrible stuff to Keltner. On those around him,
you know they looked there was an instigation here. Political
violence comes from the left once again, because the right
doesn't believe in this stuff. It is not a mainstream
geopee believe that if you're upset, if you're angry, you're

(01:22:57):
allowed to hurt people and destroy things. It is a
mainstream Democrat belief absolutely and supported by our cowardly, disgusting
enemy of the people, mainstream media, for whom you should
have nothing but utter contempt at this point. Contempt. Don't
watch them, don't listen to them. Get your news elsewhere.
That's the only way to do it. You're in the freedom.

(01:23:20):
This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast, speaking of
psycho libs, which I think we do every day. He's back, folks,
a guy who's absurd pseudo intellectual grandiloquence is really unsurpassed
to this day. It's a combination of the talking points

(01:23:44):
from HuffPo mixed with somebody's crib notes over Shakespeare. Right.
But here he is Keith Olberman talking about how we
must get rid of all of these people from society
place to have it. Let us brace ourselves, ask is twofold?
The terrorist Trump must be defeated, must be destroyed, must

(01:24:04):
be devoured at the ballot box. And then he and
his enablers and his supporters and his collaborators, and the
Mike Lees and the William Bars and the Sean Hannity's
and the Mike Pences and the Rudy Giulianis and the
Kyle Rittenhouses and the Amy Coney Barretts must be prosecuted
and convicted and remove from our society while we try

(01:24:26):
to rebuild it, and to rebuild the world Trump has
nearly destroyed by turning it over to a virus, remember it,
even as we dream of a return to reality and
safety and the country for which our forefathers died. That
the fight is not just to win an election, but
to win it by enough to chase at least for

(01:24:46):
a moment Trump and the maggots off the stage, and
then try to clean up what they left. Lock them up,
lock them up, ACP, clear them out from our society, prison, prosecute. Look,
the problem that Keith Olberman's going to have is that
his I'm insane routine that he always does is really

(01:25:10):
not that far off from the Democrat mainstream. Now, I mean,
chardon Nancy has like says the craziest stuff, even crazier
than Alberman every day. You know, Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats,
they've they've gone way further left since Keith was doing
his thing over at MSNBC. I just note he was
their biggest name, folks. He was their biggest name at

(01:25:33):
MSNBC for years and was paid ten million dollars a
year by al Gore's current TV network to have never
more than a few thousand viewers at a time, So
he didn't have that MSNBC platform. Nobody cared anymore. But
this is who the left chooses to elevate. But it's
worth noting that these are the kind of lunatics who
you'll be hearing a lot more from if Biden does

(01:25:54):
end up winning this election. Speaking of Biden, this is great.
I've eve been talking about the changing of the definitions
of court packing and what the Libs have been up
to with that. Here's when Joe Biden is asked by
a local reporter about court packing. This is amazing. I mean,
he's just saying stuff. Now you go, what does he
think he's doing? Play one, sir, I've got to ask

(01:26:15):
me about packing the courts. And I know that he
said yesterday you aren't going to answer the question until
after the election. But this is the number one thing
that I've been asked about from viewers in the past
couple of days. Well, you've been asked by the viewers
who are probably Republicans who don't want me continuing to
talk about what they're doing to the court right now. Well, sir,
don't the voters deserve to know I'm not going to

(01:26:35):
play his game. He'd love me to talk about and
I've already said something on court pack He'd loved that
to be the discussion instead of what he's doing now.
He's about he's about to make a pick in the
middle of the election. First time it's ever been done,
first time in history, it's ever been done. It's just lies, evasions.
It's absurd. This is the guy who wants to be president.

(01:26:58):
Was there ever anything where Trump was asked what he
would do if he became president in twenty sixteen, He goes,
that would be a really big story. But I'm not
going to answer it because it would be a big story.
Liberals heads would have exploded and they would have been right.
Biden is telling you straight up, No, you don't deserve.
You don't deserve to know the answer on this, because

(01:27:19):
this will help the other side. Me telling the other
side what I would do would help them. Therefore, me
telling the American people. Therefore, I have no obligation. I
have an obligation to be evasive, to lie, to be
untrustworthy to the American people. Oh, I'm so glad. This
is so funny too. What they're doing right now is

(01:27:39):
packing the court. See Biden get the talking points, the
media gets their talking points. Just conflate everything, pretend like
words have no meaning. This is court packing. That's court packing.
Everything is court packing. Muddy the waters make it hard
to discern what's actually happening and what's true for people
who are just casually trying to observe politics and governance

(01:28:01):
in America, and by changing the way that they use
these words, that's what ends up happening. It's very difficult
to separate it out. So that's what we see here.
Oh they don't you don't have a right to know,
You're all right to know. And then there's Chuck Schumer
just letting you know that this is straight up transactional
and this is really just about politics. For the Democrats
play for the Republicans are rushing this through. As you know,

(01:28:25):
it's totally different. Critical that will be a second theme
we will mention today after they held back Marthal and
eight months before a presidential election, and we know why
they're doing it. The number one reason is to get
someone on the bench who will undo so many of
the things people need and turn the clock back. They
can't do it themselves. They're afraid to do it themselves.
Although a lot of these Republicans voted eight or nine

(01:28:47):
times to repeal ACA, and so they'd get trying to
get the courts to do it, and I think it'll
be American people will look very unkindly on it. Yeah,
political stuff. Chuck Schumer's telling you that's that's what the
real draw is here. That's the real reason for all
of us. Everything else is just bla bla bla bla blather.

(01:29:09):
It is sheer an income poopery. They have no process argument,
no constitutional, no legal argument against this. So they're just
gonna throw everything everything they've got at the wall. See
what sticks. And let's just all get ready for this,
Amy Coney Barrett, Oh my, it's gonna be quite a
sight when the Democrat Party wait his all out war

(01:29:30):
on this eminently qualified, brilliant, deeply impressive mother of seven.
But it's the party of feminism, they tell you, folks,
Sure it is. Thanks for listening to The Busson Show podcasts.
Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app,
or wherever you get your podcasts. Ain't no party like

(01:29:51):
a Team Buck party, because a Team Buck party don't stop. Yeah,
we got Bucks turned up to eleven. It's time for

(01:30:17):
roll call. Roll call it is. Let us get to
a friends Facebook dot com, slash buck Sexton Team Buck
at iHeartMedia dot com if you want to send us
an email and uh yeah, and on Instagram, just send
send a direct message to Buck Sexton. Oh yeah, there
you go, Michael writes, gut your book in the mail.

(01:30:39):
Buck can't wait to dive right in hope to get
you to sign this one. You're a phenomenal patriot on
my personal hero shield time my friend. Well, Michael, that
is very kind of you. I am humbled that you
would say such nice things. It does mean a lot.
I do really appreciate it, and I'm glad you are
enjoying the Socialism Survival Guide and eight radical predictions that
will come true after the election. You can get a
bucksextonbook dot com. And I think we're actually gonna do

(01:31:00):
an additional promotion with my friends at Stansbury Research coming
up soon here, so we can really get this thing
out to the masses far and wide. But I remember,
I'm telling you about stuff that's happening, not just right
now and leading up to the election. I'm saying, Look,
this is what you're facing after the election. These are
the big structural political problems. And I hope that everyone

(01:31:21):
understands that each chapter of the eight predictions and eight
chapters in the book, and it's meant to be very readable,
very quick, two hundred and twenty pages, you can always
refer back to. It's really understand at least as I
make the argument about immigration, about the debt, about statism,
about socialism, about all these things. Bryce, Right, could it
be that Nancy's newfound interest in the twenty fifth Amendment

(01:31:45):
is meant to smooth commalis transition to becoming president? So Bryce,
I think I might have mentioned this last week, although
maybe it was on a different show. I've heard this
this theory and a few times from a few places,
and I don't think that it's I don't think it's
likely true. I can't say it's definitely not true, because's crazy,
and that's it's crazy. But I think it's very unlikely

(01:32:08):
that it's the case. Here's why everyone expects that Biden's
not going to finish out. And I think I mean
I've heard Democrats say this too. There he's not going
to finish out a second term. The guy's going to
be uh in his mid eighties. It's gonna be one
hundred year old president. I mean, this is crazy. So,
you know, there's nothing wrong. It's great to be in
your eighties. But a lot of people show that the
happiness indexes for people. You know a lot of people's

(01:32:30):
happiest parts of life are are in there in their
senior years when they've you know, they've had they've accomplished
so much and they can, you know, think more about
family and what really matters, and you know all that stuff.
So I just don't think that somebody necessarily should put
the pressure and stress on themselves that it's not good
for any of us to be president in their mid eighties.

(01:32:51):
I think that's that's asking a lot. But Biden, No
one's going to need to do a twenty fifth Amendment
thing with Biden when the when the Democrat Party, when
the apparatus tells him, hey, you step down now for
health reasons, and you will be the name Biden will
be a forever protected just like Kennedy. We're a lot

(01:33:11):
of scummy, bad Kennedy's right, either Teddy Kennedy, right, guy
drown a woman, philandering, alcoholic nut job? Right? But did
the Democrats bidding? And here's a ly another shot at
Tenney Kennedy. So Yo Shaw Walter, I always think of
a what is the chief? Is it? Proucer Mark? Is
the Chief Wigham from the Simpsons? Yes, Chief Wigham. He's

(01:33:34):
got kind of a boshed an accid, Right, you did
sound like him for a moment there yet, right, he's
got sort of that you know, yoda ick been I blena. Yeah.
So anyway, wait, is that Chief Wigham? Is that the mayor?
Am I getting the mayor confused with the mayor? And
just now you did, but you're doing a different voice there.
Roy's superintendent whatever his name is, of the schools from

(01:33:58):
the I'm thinking of. There's either the mayor of Chief Wigham,
who clearly has like a Kennedy esque Boston accent. It's
one of them. A lot of them have similar accents,
fair enough. So anyway, Teddy Kennedy was was completely protected
by the lib establishment media. And uh, you know there's
also you know, there's also the reality here of Biden

(01:34:24):
recognizing that for his future generations. He's gonna want to
have as much of the Democrat apparatus support as possible.
So anyway, point is he can step down, be a
hero of Democrats always in forever, not have to really
do anything as president, and he will be the one
who delivered the Democrats from Donald Trump for four more years.
So they're gonna love him forever. I mean, he will
go down. Biden's children's children's children will get into Harvard

(01:34:47):
even if they're morons, doesn't matter. They'll they'll pay. They'll
be able to write books about just being Biden, right,
I mean, all this stuff will be you know, there's
so much incentive for him, and all he has to
do is step down and no one's gonna care about it. No,
they're not going to have to push him out. I
don't even think Joe Biden really I think he wants
to win the presidency. I don't know if he really

(01:35:08):
wants to be president. I think he wants to play
golf and make a lot of money. Honestly, I don't
think this is a guy who would see it as
a big downgrade. Gets to be president for two years,
so he will be president, you know, the so the
ego is all covered here's the guy's obviously got a
massive ego. The egos all gonna be egos are gonna
be covered up. But he gets to uh, right off
into the sunset of hero. Who doesn't want that? Right?

(01:35:32):
It's kind of like Michael Jordan, you want to retire
at the absolute peak of your game or you want
to come back at the you know, they will do
the Washington Wizards thing and everyone's like, wait, he's not
really Michael Jordan in the same way, and you know, no, no,
so we'll see. But yeah, no, I don't think the
twenty fifth Amendment. I think it's all just meant to
troll to troll Trump. Oh here we got the president

(01:35:54):
actually weighing. You know that. Why don't we Why don't
we hear from him? Mark play fifteen for me. Well,
I think she's talking about Joe Biden, because, to be
honest with you, he's the one that's got the problem,
and obviously it's obvious to anybody that watches him speak.
He's the one that got that has the problem. And
they want to put a super radical left person in
like Kamala who's worse than who's further left than Bernie Sanders,

(01:36:18):
and you know that whole thing is breaking up now
because the Left isn't getting what they want. All of
a sudden, they're back into fracking and all the things
that they talked about they wouldn't do, and now they're
saying they're going to do them. And yeah, twenty fifth, ammon,
it's all a big ploy. It's a game. It's trolling
the present. We're all quite aware of it. More roll
call here Buck on Life Attorney. This is from Adam

(01:36:40):
on Life Attorneys normal. What I will miss the most
is not having to wear pants shields high. Adam. I
love sweatpants now and it is very what I have
to put on adult, like normal person pants, which I've
had to do occasionally. It's like, what are these? You
know you don't like them. I've gotten really used to
wearing sweatpants all the time. Sweatpants are great. You know,

(01:37:01):
I could wear them in black or navy blue, so
they dress up a little bit. But I don't know.
Producer Mark, is that your goal? Are you a sweatpat?
I could? I could picture you being a robe guy.
I am not. I am a hotel as a rope guy.
But Linley Quarantine it's been sweatpants pretty much every day.
I think five times since March I've had to put
on jeans. Well, when you think about it, sweatpants are

(01:37:23):
the most comfortable garment for your lower your lower half.
So why aren't we making more of a thing of
wearing sweatpants more. You know, Well, they're not the most
functional when you're out. Yeah, yeah, that's true. Like I
like a little pocket, you know, I'm not going to
ride the subway and have someone pickpocket me because I'm
wearing sweatpants. Well, there are different kinds of sweatpants now.

(01:37:45):
They make these stretchy fabrics and things where they can
look like they can look like dress pants but feel
like sweatpants. I think that's the move. Oh those sound great,
an get me something. Oh they're great. I can send
you some. They're good stuff. But yeah, no, Adam, I
agree with you. The ability to continue to dressed down
and relax maximum relaxing is is fantastic. So I'm all

(01:38:05):
about that. I agree. Uh, Susan, Susie. When a couple
of guys they were up to no goods started making
trouble in my neighborhood, I got a one little fight
and my mom got scared. She said, you're moving with
your auntie and uncle to Bellair? Remember then, Yes, everyone does.
But what does that have to do with Susie? Um,

(01:38:27):
I forgot, I got into it. Oh, maximum relaxing, that's why. Ah.
Remember I'm just saying, if you can't recite the Fresh
Prince theme song, are you really in nineties? Person? No,
I watched The Fresh Prince all the time. I actually
watch Martin, which I believe is the proper way the
show was pronounced Martin all the time. Martin Lawrence's show.

(01:38:51):
I think that was before my time. Yeah, probably a
little bit, dude. He was great. Bad Boys is I
think an underrated The Bad Boys the original is an
underrated movie. It really holds up. Yeah, it does. It's
a good action flick good. It's so much better than
the Miami Vice remake that was done years later with
Colin Farrell because yeah, let's have an Irish guy play

(01:39:14):
Crockett what are we doing America? And Jamie Fox as Tubbs,
who was better as Tubbs. But I mean the Crockett
Colin Farrell, he had like this ridiculous blonde mullet. It
was horrible, horrible movie I've seen it a few times. Anyway, Susie,
let's get to what you have to think and say.
I think Trump should set up his own debate without
the CPD, with Biden, with two moderators, one the Trump

(01:39:38):
campaign picks and the Biden campaign picks. Perhaps that way
we could get balanced questions and the moderators could keep
each other in check instead of turning it into a
two on one debate. It could be outside and social distance,
following current scientific research for protection for in person events.
I also think a timers should be added where the

(01:39:59):
audience see how long the Canada has been speaking when
the moderator tries to cut in. It seemed like Pence
was getting cut off the moment he was getting momentum
regardless of his speaking time. If rules are rules, let's
show everyone is held to them equally. Well, Susie, the
Biden campaign just doesn't want to They don't want to
do this again. They don't want to go into another

(01:40:20):
debate situation. I think that they believe these I mean,
these polls are nuts. I'm seeing poles. Biden had seven points,
eleven points. You know that they're they're preparing the Democrats
for I think a huge disappointment, which God only knows
how they're going to react to that, because there's no
way Joe Biden's winning this election by first of all,
that winning it by double digits as fantasy land stuff.

(01:40:42):
It's going to be one or two percentage of the
electorate that determines this probably one percent of the electorate
that determines this whole thing. So that's that's what all
the polls should show. But Democrats, it's kind of like
the media, they don't even understand their own biased They
don't even understand how they may be missing this one
or why it is that the polls are over sampling Democrats.

(01:41:06):
So we'll see. But yeah, Susie, I don't think. I
don't even think there's gonna be really a I don't know.
I don't think there's gonna be another debate. I've been
saying all summer there's gonna be one. I think you'll
get one, and that's probably it. And I think that's
where we are. You're in the freedom, hud. This is
the buck Sex and Show Podcast. Back into Roll Call.

(01:41:28):
Remember if you want to be a part of this fun,
send us an email team Bucket. iHeartMedia Dot com Matt
Hey Buck, Mike Pence did a fantastic job crushing Kamala
Harris in the debate. Honestly, it got me excited for
twenty twenty four because I think that Pence is a
strong presidential candidate. Likewise, in the same way that Pence
is gentlemanly styled compliments Trump's boisterous attitude. I think that

(01:41:50):
Jim Jordan's take no prisoners approach would mesh well with Pence.
A Pence Jordan twenty twenty four is my hope. And
as a bonus, Ted is for United States Attorney General.
Keep up a solid work, Buck YouTube producer Mark, thank
you so much, Matt, I appreciate it. And Pence is
a presidential Candidate's interesting. He hasn't gotten that much early

(01:42:15):
attention for that, but let's really think about I mean,
I would take Pence way ahead of Nicky Haley and
some of these other people that have already been raised
as the next, you know, the next round of Republican candidates.
So I think Pence would be a very very solid choice.
You know, the guy brings that Midwestern russ Belt Republican

(01:42:39):
you know, working class support to the table. Would have
been a vice president for eight years under President Trump.
Zero scandals, zero personal you know, personal shortcomings that would
prevent him from being the president. I don't know how
much that stuff even really well, it matters if you're
a Republican. It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat, of course,
But I think that's he's he'd be a very serious candidate.

(01:43:02):
But he's also the kind of guy who doesn't you're
not going to hear about that. So you're really deep
into the Trump second term because he's he's doing his
job and he like, he appreciate he's the number two men,
and he's good with that, and that's what this is
all about. So but I think you're right, Matt. I
think he would be strong and Jim Jordan as his veep.

(01:43:22):
I'd want to see Christy Nome. I think Christy Nome
is fantastic governor South Dakota. I think she's just doing
a great job and has really showed people what real
executive leadership looks like during the COVID pandemic. And she's
she's one to watch. Folks to see her as a
as a vice bybe even a presidential contender herself. Mike

(01:43:43):
isn't it an also interesting before I get to Mike,
Republicans tend to want governor's people in executive roles in
the past to run for president. Democrats always have a senator,
always kind of have somebody who's from within that bureaucratic body.
Just a little bit of if you look, if you
look at the path, that tends to be the way.
It is just a difference difference there right right, John

(01:44:04):
Carey Senator, Hillary Clinton, Senator, um Joe Biden, Senator. We
like governors Ronald Reagan, governor, George W. Bush governor? Right,
wasn't he Governor Texas? I'm not making that up? I
might yeah, so yes, indeed, uh oh, Mitt Romney, I know,

(01:44:24):
I know, boo, but whatever, Massachusetts Governor Mike Buck, did
you happen to watch the Ladies French Open final? This
phenomen is likely to dominate for the foreseeable future, barring injury, Mike,
I missed all of the French Open, which I'm very
sad about. I saw Rafa nadal One, one of the
one of the three greatest of all time. I'm here
and some people argue they think that he's tech. He
should be considered the greatest tennis player of all time,

(01:44:45):
even ahead of Federer. Now that's a that's a tough one.
That is a tough one. I did see. I did
see that the NBA Finals happened, and I asked producer
Mark about this, because the ratings were down huge, hugely
from the last NBA final seventy percent. But Mark had
a very important context for this, Mark, what was the

(01:45:06):
why were the ratings down so much in your opinion,
or what's one What are some of the reasons for it?
In my opinion, it would be well, first of all,
the game was a blowout from the very beginning. It
was like a twenty thirty point game the whole time,
and it was competing with Sunday night football playoff baseball.
I think there was some tennis yesterday, and I mean
NBA Finals aren't normally in the middle of October. So yeah,
so a lot of a lot of changes on that one.

(01:45:28):
Buck writes in Love the Show. Perhaps it's the name.
I like that Buck, great name. I think the twenty
fifth Amendment thing actually has nothing to do with Trump
but rather one percent and warning to Biden if he
doesn't stick to all the liberal crazy horse hockey he's
agreed to keep the information flowing shields high. Well, Buck,
despite your brilliant name, I don't know, if I look,

(01:45:51):
you could be right, You could be right on that.
I don't see it that way. I feel like if
it was time for Biden to go, he'd and the
people in you know, Pelosian Schumer sat down with Biadam
or Lek. Look, we're gonna take care of you. We
got we got board seats, set up a few Biden's
greedy folks. Look at his Look at what his hunter
Biden has done. Look what Biden's done since he left office.
This guy wants to be super super rich. He doesn't

(01:46:12):
have that much time. You think he really wants to
be president for eight years. This guy gets to be
president for two years. The best deal for him is
to beat Trump, be president for two years, handed over
to Kamala right after the mid terms, and then walk
away as a timeless hero of the Democrat left. And
so look, that's if I were Biden's you know, personal
life coach, I'd tell him that's the move, buddy. What

(01:46:33):
he want to get dragged into another economic recession, perhaps
a war with China? You know who knows what's gonna happen?
You want to go through all that in your mid eighties.
I don't. I don't think so. Friends, that's the show
for today. Please pass the buck. Get somebody new in
this election season to listen to Buck Sexton Show. Best
way to do it is just send them an email
or a text message with a link to the podcast.
We'll put it out on social media until tomorrow. Shields
