Speaker 1 (00:11):
You're listening to the Buck Sexton Chow podcast, make sure
you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart Radio app
or wherever you get your podcasts. Parents and families woke
up in a nightmare today after another deadly school shooting
yesterday took the lines of nineteen children and two teachers
in the small town of Uvalde, Texas. Authority say the

(00:33):
rampage in rob Elementary School ended only after Border patrol
agents rushed into the school and killed the lone gunman,
a massacre entering the record books as the second deadliest
school shooting in US history, following Sandy Hooks ten years ago.
We'll get into this devastating news and tonight's home life.

(00:56):
These kinds of mass shooties rarely happened anywhere else in
the world. Why they have mental health problems, They have
two cosputes in other countries, they have people who are lost,

(01:16):
But these kinds of mass unity has never happened with
a kind of frequency they happen in America. Why why
are we willing to live with this carnage? Why do
we keep letting this happen? Where in God's name is
our backbone? Have the courage to do with it. Stand
up to the lobbies, Stand up the lobbies, he says,

(01:40):
that's going to solve it. Welcome to hold on, buck Sexton. Look,
it is a day of national mourning today. A horrific
mass murder of children at a school in Texas occurred.
And there is of course the immediate grief and the
sense of loss obviously for the community or the families

(02:03):
first and foremost affected in this mass murder directly, and
then the whole country dealing with what is a shock,
what feels like a gut punch, and national heartbreak going on.
And this is already unfortunately being turned into an issue
of politic by Democrats, including the very President of the

(02:25):
United States himself, who you saw there. And we'll speak
more about that in a moment. But here's first off,
what we know about this shooting that occurred yesterday. This
is from Governor Abbott and Texas Public Safety. The name
of the shooter, Salvador Ramos. He used an air fifteen,
had no known mental health history problems, but a plenty

(02:46):
of people around him knew that he was deeply troubled
and a person that was concerning to say the least
part of the high school drop out, no reported criminal
history before this mass murder incident, but he did post
a Facebook comment approximately thirty minutes before he went on
this shooting rampage and said he was on Facebook going

(03:08):
to shoot an elementary school. There are a lot of
questions that people have now about how could something like
this happen? Why weren't the security procedures that the school
sufficient to stop a lunatic like this. There was someone
who was present from a security perspective, it didn't seem

(03:29):
that individual was able to stop this mass shooting from occurring.
And what would be the best way forward to stop
a situation like this, or rather to hopefully prevent as
many of these possible scenarios in the future as we
could possibly what we could possibly do. Those are the
kinds of discussions we should be having now, along with

(03:50):
also the mental health issue here of involuntary commitment of
those who were criminally insane. True psychopaths like this individual,
become very difficult to have somebody involuntarily committed, and any
discussion of red flag laws, for example, goes into a
very difficult range of punishing people before they've actually necessarily

(04:13):
committed a criminal act. With the idea they might commit
criminal act in the near future. This is complicated stuff,
but to Democrats, they seem to think they have the answer.
They think that they know how to solve this issue.
Joe Biden tweeted the President the idea that an eighteen
year old can walk into a store and buy assault
weapons is just wrong. What in God's name do you
need an assault weapon for except to kill someone? R

(04:37):
fifteen is the most popular rifle in America in terms
of ownership. There are literally millions, perhaps tens of millions
of Americans who own an Air fifteen or a similar
semi automatic rifle. And of the millions of law binding
governors who have that weapon, they never break any law.
With that done, we're really any law perioded. So we're

(04:57):
going to now have what exactly, We're gonna have a
law dictated to us by Democrats who don't actually know
very much about public safety, firearms laws, and have no
respect whatsoever for the Second Amendment. A lot of crying
out for action from politicians like Joe Biden, and here's

(05:18):
Kamala Harris doing the same thing, just saying we have
to do something. Okay, well, let's talk about that. Here's
the Vice President. I think we all know and have
said many times with each other, enough is enough, Enough
is enough. As a nation, we have to have the
courage to take action and understand the nexus between what

(05:47):
makes for reasonable and sensible public policy to ensure something
like this never happens again, never happens again. Okay, so
what is it? What do they want? There's a seemingly
a certainty among Democrats because they are yelling at people

(06:08):
who they disagree with politically on completely unrelated matters. By
the way, they they just always assume, well, if you're
a Republican, you're a bad person, and you don't but
you don't care about a situation like this. A lot
of shouting about how we need to take action, and
people like Senator Chris Murphy saying, what are we doing? Why?
What are we doing? What are we doing? Just days

(06:36):
after a shooter walked into a grocery store to gun
down African American patrons, we have another Sandy Hook on
our hands. What are we doing? They've been more mass
shootings than days in the year. Why do you spend
all this time running for the United States Senate? Why

(06:57):
do you go through all the hassle of getting this
job of putting yourself in a position of authority, if
your answer is that as this slaughter increases, as our
kids run for their lives, we do nothing. It's a
horrible thing that occurred. It is beyond human comprehension that

(07:19):
anybody could be as evil as this shooter was. And
the Democrats think that the problem should be addressed now
by shouting about how we need to do something and
be courageous. Okay, what what do they want to be
done here? We know that after a mass shooting now
there is a very clear Democrat response that always they

(07:42):
make it very partisan right away. There's no morning period allowed.
They Joe Biden last night went on TV to push partisan,
partisan agenda items in the aftermath of this and to
politicize the depths of children. That's what's actually going on here,
and we all see it. We understand what's happening. It's

(08:02):
not the first time they do this. They do this repeatedly,
or if it's a white shooter, we'll hear about how
it is white nationalism supremacy. And then there's other political
demands that Democrats make as a result. In this case,
because the shooter was a Latino male. There isn't that
white supremacy narrative. So it's all about guns, all about

(08:23):
going after the guns. There are almost four hundred million
guns estimated in American hands right now. There are three
hundred and thirty million people in the country. What do
democrats want us to do? You start to get the
sense this is really just about for a lot of
these politicians, a lot of these public figures, histrionics and
about themselves, about making this about them. The best example

(08:46):
of this would be the Beto O'Rourke absurdity today, disrespectfully
confronting Governor Abbott, the actual governor of Texas, dealing with
an actual crisis and atrocity, trying to give information to
people trying to handle the situation the aftermath of this
mass murder, and Bett O'Rourke stands up during a press

(09:07):
conference to shout down the governor because better O'Rourke is
a narcissistic maniac. Watch this shooting. It's right now, and
you're doing no please get it. This is the place
to talk to you. So this is totally predictable. When sir,
you're out a lie, Sure you're outline. I'm sure you're outline.

(09:30):
Please leave your suitorial I can't leave. You're sick of them.
It would come to a deal like this to make
a political issue. He is a sick so ob. We'll
have more on this devastating shooting and the growing calls
for gun control with CEO of American Majority Ned Ryan

(09:52):
up next. Right now, let's talk about protecting your home
if you own a homer property. Here's two reasons you
never want to become the victim of home title fraud.
Reason number one, when a cyber criminal sneakly worms his
way under your home's title, he'll take a loan after
loan using your home's equity. Then they'll vanish, leaving it
ap prove you didn't commit fraud. Number two, you could
be a victim of home title wrought and not know
it for months. No agency notifies you or asked too.

(10:13):
If you sold your home or added someone to the title.
You'll find out when the collection calls start for those
loans which you never took out. Nobody knows more about
how to help stop this crime than home Title Lock,
America's trusted leader. Here's what I urge you to do.
Go to hometelelock dot com. And read the testimonials from
retired FBI agents and others. Then register your home address
to see if you're already a victim when you protect

(12:04):
reels from another deadly mass shooting in schools, the call
for gun control are pouring in from all corners of society.
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr gave a particularly
passionate speech before Game four of the Western Conference Finals
last night. Watch and in the last ten days, we've
had elderly black people killed in a supermarket in Buffalo,

(12:26):
We've had Asian churchgoers killed in southern California, and now
we have children murdered at school. When are we going
to do something? I mean, now, the reaction the CEO
of American Majority Ned Ryan Ned, appreciate you being with us. Yeah, absolutely, Look,

(12:48):
we're all horrified at what happened, But it seems now
that the immediate response you get from Democrats and people
like Steve Kerr whatever in public life, is this shouting
at their political opponents to do something, and then when
we say, well, what do you want to be done,

(13:11):
they just keep shouting at it. Yeah, this to me
is again the same response we've seen again and again
and again from Democrats. They don't want to have any
solution except where we want to take all the guns away.
We don't want to have the Second Amendments. And if
you don't do what we want to do, then you're evil, cruel,

(13:31):
despicable human beings. There are real solutions, but do this.
First of all, we have plenty of gun laws. The
thing that we're lacking, I think is insane asylums. I'm
all for us really imploring the mental health issue and
bringing back those asylums. But on another note, Israel dealt
with this that these school shootings back in the seventies,

(13:54):
and since they instituted new laws and new approaches to
school security in nineteen seventy four, I believe there's only
been two shootings. That includes armed guards at least one,
if not two, armed guards at every school. It also
includes training kids on how to react in active shooter situation.
So I think there's a couple different approaches that we
can have if we're serious about it. I would also

(14:14):
add buck, if we had leaders that were really serious
about this, they wouldn't be sending forty billion to a
corupt Eastern European nation. They'd actually be spending that money
onheartening our schools. I would also add buck, when you
are advertising gun free zones, you're actually advertising very soft
target for those that are insane to come and shoot
up the place. So there are real solutions. The solution

(14:37):
that the Democrats want is not a starting point, and
that is basically what they want to do is remove
the second Amendments from our Bill of Rights. That's not
going to happen. That's not a real solution. A lot
of people, celebrities, profisional athletes and others going on with
this there. Here's Lebron James for example. There there simply
has to be changed, has to be praying to the

(14:59):
heavens above to all with kids. Look, we share the
sentiment of praying for kids in school and for the
families and everybody affected, but screaming about change and Democrats
in elected office are doing this too. Why don't they
just say what they want? I mean, what what is it?
It seems like the Democrats, who I will say ideologically

(15:23):
have been disastrous on prevention of criminal violence in the
last couple of years we've all seen that, seem to
believe that they have the answer to stop school shootings.
And I would just want to know, ned if they
have that answer legislatively, legally speaking, what is it? Well,

(15:45):
what do they what is it that they think is
going to stop this? Well, I would point out luck
when Obama in his first term had significant majorities in
the House and the Senate, they did absolutely nothing their solution.
And if they're being completely honest about as they want
complete absolute gun control like Australia, that's not going to happen,

(16:06):
and they realize that and that would mean buybacks, right,
I mean that goes beyond even control, right that the
Australia program is taking guns from everybody who has them
currently legally exactly, And I would I guess the first
thing I would say to Democrats first of all, how
do you think you're going to get the three hundred
million plus guns out of the hands of private citizens

(16:27):
without their being extreme violence? How are you going to
revoke the Second Amendment? How are you going to revoke
all fifty state constitutions. There's a whole series of things
that's completely impractical. Is not going to happen. There are
practical steps if we have leadership that is actually serious
about this on both sides of the aisle. They're actually
going to actually encourage school security, they're going to actually

(16:47):
invest in it, they're actually going to take a really
strong look at mental health issues. They're a whole host
of solutions to this. Instead, they want to go right
for let's revoke our Bill of right and if you
don't do it, you're evil people. Completely not even a
starting point for having a rational conversation book. I mean,
here's Joe Biden from speech last night. I think it

(17:11):
was it went exactly as I thought it would where
there was a moment there were some opportunities there to
bring the country together, to speak as a healer in chief,
to degree that that's possible for the nation in a
moment of national grief like this, and said Biden just
wanted to throw not even just political chief shots at
his political at his opponents, but to say things that

(17:32):
they just keep saying and saying, and some of it's
just not true. Here he was on the assault weapons
ban watch. I spent my career as a Senator and
a Vice president working to past common sense gun laws.
We can will prevent every tragedy, but we know they
work and have positive impact. When we passed the assault
weapons ban, mass shootings went down. When the law expired,

(17:57):
mass shootings tripled. The idea that an eighteen year old
kid can walk into a gunster and buy two assault weapons,
it's just wrong. What in God's name do you need
to solve it for except to kill someone there? I mean,
there's so much there. First of all, the Assault Weapons

(18:17):
Band did not bring down nationwide violence at all, actually
statistically ned. And this idea that mass shootings tripled, well,
I guess that all depends on how they're trying to
do the how they're compiling the numbers on mass shootings.
But the Assault weapons Band didn't work as advertised. But
now he's saying it did well. The data doesn't back

(18:39):
up anything that Joe Biden said last night. But Buck,
I want to point out when I heard that it
was not an effect, I fully expected Biden to take
the moment to be a crass political demagogue. But when
politics is your religion, and really you're precious is political power,
you will use any situation to advance those goals. And

(19:01):
he did that, and I thought it was a shameful
episode for the presidency and for the White House for
my to do that last night. No, the facts don't
back up anything that Joe Biden says on any level.
Of course, they're not interested in having a factual, rational
conversation on this. They want to use an emotional situation

(19:24):
to drive their narrative to achieve their goals, which have
nothing to do with the basic rights of the overwhelming
majority of law abiding citizen. They want to use a
very very small percentage of mentally in saying people to
then take away the rights of literally hundreds of millions
of people. Not going to happen, but they're going to

(19:44):
try and take every opportunity to do that. We're gonna
speak to Ned again later in the show here to
discuss the Georgia primary, So Ned, stick around for that. Okay,
thanks for being with us. We'll look at what the
primary results mean for the future of Congress. But right
now I want to talk to you about protecting your
online data. Big tech is taking advantage of us. They're
minding our data, reminding our data, selling it and guess what,

(20:05):
we don't benefit from that at all. They count their money,
of course, and have views you're privacy in the process.
I really think your emails, tex and messages are private
and say from government's hackers and you know two phase
profit hungry corporations, they're not Where Secure comes in. Secure
as email platform is one hundred percent private. It is
Swiss hosted. They use their own service in Switzerland, have
no ties to American big tech companies. With Secure, there

(20:26):
is no datamining whatsoever. It's completely private. That's what makes
Secure different from every other email and messaging provider out there.
Secure is the best email platform in the world when
it comes to security and privacy. It's unmatched. Look, there's
a reason Secure built their company the way they did.
We need to take a stand and take back our
privacy from big tech. So this is what you need

(21:11):
Abdullah is over. Less than three hours after the NYPD
released his photograph to the public. Mister Abdullah knew he
had nowhere left to run your NYPD investigators identified him
as the killer of Daniel Enriquez. Andrew Abdellah has been
arrested in the killing of forty eight year old Daniel
Enriquez on a New York City subway this past weekend.

(21:33):
Shootings believed to be completely unprovoked, and police are baffled
us what the possible motive could be. The rise in
city crime has Mayor Eric Adams once again in hot water,
trying to figure out a solution to make the city
safe again. Abdullah has a lengthy criminal background, and according
to Manhattan Disattorney's Office, it was just five years ago,
in twenty seventeen, that Abdellah was arrested along with a

(21:55):
dozen other known members of the two Harlem based Gangs
in an two based Gangs rather than an eighty three
count indictment. The group is responsible for eight shooting victims,
as well as slashings, gang assault, gunpoint robberies, in various
weapons related defense. Do what I mean how to discuss
New York City Council Member Joe Borelli, Joe, appreciate you
being with us. Thank you book. Joe. What do we

(22:18):
need to know about? How is it possible that someone
like this is even on the streets to commit such
an act given his lengthy criminal record. Well, I think
that's the question that is really the only one that
should be the one at or front of anyone. Yeah,
you know, we probably can't ever totally prevent random shootings.

(22:40):
I mean, that's that's a reality that most people don't
want to think about. But we can't prevent. There's no
police force that can get in the mind of others
and predict when something like this happens. But the thing
that does limit risk is when we take people who
we know to have used guns in the past, we
know have a propensity to use guns because they've been
arrested multiple times, and we keep those people from being

(23:03):
on our streets. That's what didn't happen here with this perp.
This is someone, as you pointed out in twenty seventeen,
was indicted and arrested in a major case. This means
that the NYPD, along with probably federal law enforcement partners,
spent countless man hours, probably over a year, unraveling a network,

(23:24):
a gang network in Harlem to make this arrest. And
all of that was just pete away, buck, to use
the colloquialism, just kind of pete away when you let
people like this off the hook. That is the fundamental
poem that New Yorkers have to confront. We like to
think we have the strongest gun laws in the country.

(23:45):
That's something that Democrats in this state constantly tout. But
gun laws that aren't enforced with mandatory minimums. When you
have people carrying illegal firearms, people who have been involved
in shootings before, people on probation from those shootings, then
what is the point of having gun laws in the
first place. May Eric Adams to me doesn't seem like

(24:09):
he's doing a good job at all as a resident city.
I know you're a resident of the city as well, Joe,
and here he is trying to tell everybody that you know,
they're doing their job despite the rising crime that continues
even while he's in office. I mean, it's been going
up even since he became the new mayor. Watched this one.
We lost the fellow New Yorker, one of the good guys.

(24:29):
We're doing our job, I say over and over again.
MPD with their partners, have removed over twenty nine hundred
illegal guns off our streets as soon as we place
them on. More return with bad guys who feel comfortably
enough even after we arrest them, that they can come

(24:50):
back out and recappy going our city. I ask you this,
Joe is the mayor of Moron because he speaks always
about taking guns off the streets. The problem is criminals.
Anyone who knows criminal justice, anyone who knows the history
of New York City for the last thirty years, understands
the problem is people like this guy Abdullah being on

(25:10):
the street. It's not taking guns off the streets. And
as he even says, there's always going to be a
flood of illegal guns from out of the state into
the state. Well that's the big fallacy, right. I mean,
when you talk about taking guns off the street getting great,
it's a number. But look at the twenty twenty one,
the year end statistics, NYPD confiscated and made arrests in

(25:33):
forty five hundred gun collars. Over two thousand of those
cases are still open, meaning that they're still pending trial,
They're still being delayed, they're still being worked through the
court system, all the while those twenty five hundred arrestees
are still out on the streets of these trial of
these cases. By the way, in twenty twenty one, guess

(25:54):
how many cases actually went to trial and resulted in
a conviction. I'll give you one guess, buck, how many
do you think the two thousand m one one went
to trial and resulted in a conviction. Hold on a second,

(26:14):
Hold on of second, Joe, I gotta make sure I
got this right, because I'm gonna be blasting this out
on the airwaves all across the country. They had two
thousand gun arrests in New York City and one case
was actually prosecuted. They got forty five hundred guns. About
a thousand or so people pled to misdemeanor charges, meaning
you're a charge with a mandatory felony. They pleaded down

(26:35):
to an attempted possession of a firearm. How one could
attempt to possession a firearm but not possess it is
beyond me. But only one person basically was forced into
a trial. They wouldn't bargain with the guy, and only
one case went to trial and resulted in a conviction.
There were two other trials to my knowledge that the
person was acquitted. And that's that's the price of our

(26:57):
justice system. Sometimes people are innocent, but one trial, a
one case went to trial, and a person is in jail.
I mean, I remember, didn't the New York Giant star
Plexico Buris. Didn't he do three or four years in
prison because he carried a gun illegally and actually had
an accidental accidental discharge, but he only hurt himself in
the process. Didn't they give him multiple years? So I

(27:20):
just I thought New York City was, you know, oh,
mandatory minimums for anybody who carries a loaded firearm illegally.
You're telling me the thousands of people just plead it out. Correct? Correct? Probably?
I think the number is fifteen hundred or so out
of that fourteen forty five hundred number. I actually wrote
it up ed in the New York Post or the
viewers could just log onto New Yorkpost dot com and

(27:41):
search my name and they'll see it pop right up.
And we went through the numbers direct from the NYPD,
and this is the broom reality. And then you have
had to basically combat this from a cops perspective. Right,
You're asking a cop to apprehend someone who has a
firearm that could result in them getting killed. We're asking
people to do something very dangerous, and when you see

(28:03):
no consequences happened in the purp at the end of
the day, I wouldn't blame police for being a little
bit more hesitant maybe in twenty twenty two than they
were in twenty twenty one or beyond. I mean, what
is it all worth? I wanted you to address this.
This is one more thing here, Eric Adams this morning
talking to New Yorkers about gun violence. Watch this one.
These crime waves are attached to a small number of

(28:26):
New Yorkers that we can't continue to protect and say
our cities a safe haven for shooters and dangerous people,
it must be a safe haven for innocent New Yorkers.
We've increased patrols on the neighborhoods that was experiencing the
most violence, more cops in the subway twenty four hours
a day, the focused deployment of violence interrupters. A partner

(28:52):
in our pursuit to fight violence, increasing visualization and inspections
in our subway system. We're seeing the product that we're
putting out producing the result that we expect. Is he
doing everything that you think he should do to actually
bring down the crime situation here in New York the
violent crime situation. No, no, But he is partially right.

(29:17):
The gun crimes in this city are the responsibility earlier,
the result rather of a fraction of a percent of
people in the highest crime precincts. And if you go
to those precincts, but you know the nypding better than anyone.
If you go to those precincts, you could speak to
the intel officers. They can tell you who the twenty
people and their precincts are that are carrying guns are

(29:39):
likely to be carrying guns. You could ask the grandmothers
in any housing project, who are the bad guys that
you don't want your grandkid to hang out with. And
I wish the mayor would solely focus on making life
a misery for those twenty or twenty five people in
every precinct and making it impossible to go about their
business as a gang member who runs some corner in

(30:02):
some corner of the bronxes, though, the queens or wherever.
If he did that, that would be doing all he could.
That would mean that the entire higher burden falls on
the state criminal justice system and state laws. But we
should be focusing entirely on those people. Yo, Barelli, good
to see you, sir, appreciate it, thanks book. We have

(30:23):
results in from the Georgia primary. It looks like former
President Donald Trump's endorsement didn't win across the board. Sometimes
pulls it out, sometimes does it. We'll talk about that
and more with the CEO of American Majority, Ned Ryan
in a moment. Georgia's primary election results are in and

(30:44):
the battle for governor is going to come down to
Republican Brian Kemp and Democrats Stacy Abrams our rematch. Friends.
Kemp had strong support from former Vice President Mike Penns
and defeated the Trump endorsed David Purdue for the Republican nomination.
We have more results to share across the state of
Georgia and joined me now to talk about all that.
CEO of American Majority once again, our friend Ned Ryan, Ned,

(31:04):
good to see you again, my friend. So last night Georgia.
All right, this was a political story. What are your
main takeaways? Well, the main takeaway for me on Georgia
is really kind of the story of where Trump has
experienced most of his losses. Buck. When he endorses against
an incumbent governor or the incumbent governor's machine, it doesn't

(31:27):
go well. I mean, see Georgia, ce, Idaho, c Nebraska,
and really, honestly, if I were advising Trump on those endorsements,
I would say, you either put five to ten million
behind each one of those endorsements to enforce it, or
do you just move along and don't even bother. I mean,
Donald Trump is still the eight hundred pound gorilla in
many ways in Republican politics. But I've told people, Buck,

(31:48):
you can't take a cripple donkey and make it a
winner of the derby. And David Perdue was a terrible candidate.
This was not a shocking surprise. In the gubernatorial primary,
where I was surprised, to be honest, Buck was in
the Secretary of State race. I really thought that Jody
Heist was going to force a runoff. But what I
think did happen. I've seen some indication of this. I

(32:09):
think that seventh ten Raffin's Purgators vote was actually from
the Democrats. They put him over that fifty percent margin
that he needed to avoid a run off, so that
that to me was the biggest surprise. But I will
point out Tubac people want to focus on the ubernatorial race.
There was another primary last night in which herschel Walker
absolutely destroyed the primary field and it was Donald Trump

(32:30):
that talked herschel into running, endorsed him and basically ended
the Senate primary months ago, and last night I think
he got sixty eight percent of the vote, wasn't even
close to having a runoff. So mixed bag of good
last night, but again kind of continuing that trend when
he endorses against an incumbent governor. Not a very good
win run. Here's just for everyone home a rundown so

(32:53):
they could see of how it all went down. Brian Campus,
we said he won. He's going to face Stacy Abrams
for governor this fall and he defeated her four years ago.
But it was tight. Herschel Walker, the former NFL star
and Georgia Georgia college football stars, Trump backed as ned
said he is going to represent Georgia, or rather represent

(33:15):
the Republican side in the Senate race there against Raphael Warnock,
which is gonna be a real throwdown. Representative Marjorie Taylor
Green won the Republican primary for her house. Sister, Chris Carr,
George's attorney general, also defeated his Trump back challenger, John Gordon.
You know, so, as you said, herschel Walker, you could
say high stepped into the end zone, net spiked the

(33:37):
football in the end zone. But obviously, you know, we
interviewed him on the radio show the day of I mean,
he's going to be formidable. How do you think it?
How do you think he goes up against How does
he stack up against Raphael Warnock, the current Democrat senator
who was one of those two Democrat pickups that was
just brutal in the beginning of twenty twenty one. Well,

(34:00):
the most recent bulls Buck in the last couple weeks
showed herschel up five points over Warnock. And I have
to tell you one of the dynamics I've seen with
her schel Walker, the only person I've seen raised money
from small dollar donors exceeding what Herschel has been able
to do has been Donald Trump. I mean herschel Walker
is an absolute fundraising machine. He's going to be well funded.

(34:22):
I think he's got a very very good chance of
beating Warnock in the fall. I actually think that where
Trump is endorsed and his candidates are winning the Senate races,
you're going to see Senator jd. Vant, You're going to
see Senator herschel Walker. I think he's going to endorse
in Arizona, Missouri, in Nevada. All of these races, you're
going to have Trump candidates actually become the Senators because

(34:46):
of the twenty twenty two dynamics. So I feel really
good about herschel Walker, probably as good as I feel
about any other candidate running on the Republicans take at
this fall. Now, there's also in the background of all
of these primary elections ned the so called Jim Crow
two point oz allegation. That was the quote. Biden said it,

(35:06):
Stacy Abrams has said it, so many Democrats have said it.
The Georgia primary voting on the Republican side, for example,
just on the Republican side, I think it was what
was it up sixty percent from the last minute, I mean,
it's up a huge number. Was it up? Might have
even been up over one hundred percent. It was some
crazy numb I think. Actually I saw a statistic it

(35:27):
was one hundred and sixty eight percent over the twenty
twenty primary book. I mean, just a staggering turnout in which,
you know, all these claims of the Jim pro two
point o laws and voter suppression, in between twenty twenty
and twenty twenty two, we actually saw a massive, significant
increase in turnout. So again voter suppression had actually nothing

(35:51):
to do as with what most things Democrats say had
nothing to do with reality. Here is, by the way,
Stacy Abrams, who is still pushing the idea even after
the massive and there was massive across the board that
turned out in Georgia, right, I mean it was like
record breaking every all over the state, Democrat, Republican African
American primary participation way off. I mean all good things.

(36:13):
People fired up in the state of Georgia to vote
for their candidates. That that's what we like to see.
Stacey Abrams still out there saying, well, it was still
voter suppression. Watch the equivalent of saying that more people
voting means there are no suppression is like telling people
that if you get in the water, there are no sharks,
and more people get in the water there are fewer
sharks that there's no correlation there. Voter suppression is about

(36:34):
blocking or impeding certain types of voters from participating in elections.
And as you pointed out, right now, Republicans have the
most competitive elections. But what we also don't know is
what is the mail in ballot rejection? Right? What are
the difficulties people are having. I mean, it's so basically
like it's it just to be clear, no matter what

(36:54):
the numbers actually show, they're just they're just gonna say, well,
the numbers would have been higher except for your voter suppression.
The say, well, where's the voter suppression? You know that
they're always going to be used. They're going to be
using this to browbeat people into getting the election laws
that they want, which have nothing to do with pre
infair elections. And until they get what they want, which

(37:15):
would absolutely annihilate pre infair elections, they're going to continue
to browbeat people into while you're racist, you want voter suppression,
you don't want certain demographics actually voting what in fact,
nothing could be further from the truth, and the thing
that's amazing to be bucking all of this. You can
have Stacy Abrams saying all of these things when in fact,
the real numbers and the real data actually show, for example,

(37:37):
nearly seventy percent of the black community wants photo ID.
When you get to other minority communities like Hispanics, it
goes into the eighties. So they're saying one thing to
drive a narrative to get what they want, which is
again political power. But what they're saying again is nothing
but lies that have nothing to do with reality or
facts or data or statistics. Think Georgia is the single

(37:57):
most important battleground to really send a message in the midterms.
Is that? Is that the top of your list of states?
It's one of them? And can we actually have definitive
wins statewide at the gubernatorial at the center race. Can
we actually have these wins to show that we're changing
the trends. There's a lot of work still to be done. Blocked.
I'm not a fan of the Georgia election integrity laws

(38:20):
that were passed. They need to be strengthened, But I
think you're going to see some wins this fall that
should be pretty encouraging for US. But again, there's still
work to be done, and we've got two legislative sessions
spring at twenty twenty three, spring at twenty twenty four
to fix all the problems that I think still exists
in some of these battlegrounds. Stays like Georgia and Ryan.
Everybody ned appreciate it, Buddy, good to see you. Thanks Buck.

(38:44):

Each morning, the President of the United States receives a
highly classified briefing on the most important issues facing the country.
It's called the President's Daily Brief or PDB. It's delivered
by America's spies and analysts. Well, now you can hear
your very own PDP in the form of a podcast
hosted by me Brian Dean Wright, a former CIA operations officer.

(40:16):
Each morning at six am Eastern, I'll bring you fifteen
to twenty minutes of the most important issues facing the country,
giving you the critical intelligence and analysis you need to
start your morning. Henry Kissinger says Ukraine should see territory

(40:36):
to Russia and the war. And Whoopie Goldberg went off
on a gun rant while speaking on the tragic Yu've
all day school shooting. It's another day of foot kids
here and the ladies of the View and all of it.
We'll get into that in a second. First, Okay, here's
Whoopi Goldberg of the View. We mentioned this one watch.

(40:56):
Let's apply his abortion laws to guns by deputizing citizen
to see anyone involved in gun violet. So you sold
an AAR fifteen at the gun show? See you in court?
Does your neighbor have too big an arsenal? Call the cops?
What does she even? Does she know anything? I mean,

(41:19):
it's it's amazing when she's talking about firearms. Does she
even know the basics of the laws that she's now?
Quite remarkable anyway, it's the view. It is the worst
political analysis you will find on any cable show, I
think in existence. Henry Kissinger, you all know him. A
lot of people probably have some pretty negative feelings about

(41:39):
the guy. But he's supposed to be something of a
foreign policy expert. But he's saying that Ukraine should give
up territory to Russia and in exchange for peace. Watch
movement to its negotiations and negotiations on peace need to

(42:00):
begin the niggas two months or so. Ideally the dividing
line should be good lead state ofds QUO And I mean,

(42:20):
I think he's right that there needs to be a
negotiation to end this war as soon as possible. I
don't know if people really want to hear from Henry
Kissinger or not on that one. I'll leave that to you.
Johnny Depp amber heard still going on in this trial
here he is making a return to the stand today.
Watch it's insane to hear heinous accusations of violence, sexual

(42:52):
violence that she's attributed to me, That she's accused me
of ridiculous, humiliating, ludicrous, painful, savage, unimaginably brutal, cruel um

(43:20):
and oh false. I think that says they're all lies.
I'll see what story says about this as everything I
told the line. The Nose Spin News with Bill O'Reilly
is next Fields High. Each morning, the President of the

(43:51):
United States receives a highly classified briefing on the most
important issues facing the country. It's called the President's Daily Brief,
or PDB. It's delivered by America's spies and analysts. Well
now you can hear your very own PDB in the
form of a podcast hosted by me Brian Dean Wright,
a former CIA operations officer. Each morning at six am Eastern,
