or wherever you get your podcasts team. Happy Tuesday. I
hope you had a great Labor Day. Much to get
to In this fabulous edition of The Buck Sexton Show,
we got Fauci says decisions about who's getting get an ice?
(00:22):
You better coming and maybe the unvaxed. He didn't say
this part, but this is what they mean. Are going
to go to the back of the healthcare line. Australia
has COVID zero quarantine camps. What to do about jobless
benefits for seven million expiring? Oh, I've got an idea
A lot of people do. Why are so many young
men giving up on college? And Biden administration slowing down
(00:47):
evacuation from Afghanistan? To this day, they still continue to
show us how utterly incompetent, reckless, buffoonish and stupid they are.
No surprise with any of that will come into all
of it at a moment, But you know, the tunnelt
To Towers Foundation helps us keep our commitment to never forget.
And this year the foundation is honoring gold Star and
(01:10):
Fallen First responder, families with young children and catastrophically injured
veterans and first responders with two hundred mortgage free homes.
Chairman and CEO Frank Siller is paying tribute to the
fallen by walking from the Pentagon to Shanksville and on
too Ground zero, more than five hundred miles through six
states and forty two days the month of August through
nine to eleven. Towers of light are to shine at
the Pentagon and shanks Fill. Memorials in remembrance and to
(01:32):
the names of those we lost to nine to eleven
related illness are being read aloud at a ceremony on
September twelve, on Veterans Day, the names of those we
lost in the War on Terror will also be said
out loud. Do good and help America to never forget.
Donate eleven dollars a month to Tunnel to Towers at
t twot dot org. That's t the number two t
(01:52):
dot org Tunnel to Towers Foundation. They do amazing stuff
and you should definitely support them. We got the your
anniversary of nine to eleven coming up here, so obviously
it's a tom and a lot of us are thinking
about this, all right, now, COVID madness continues on here.
It's not a surprise when you figure that so much
(02:13):
about this is not only political, but it's about a
long term plan to establish absolute control and to change
America and in fact to reset the world and the
way we live our lives. That's underway right now. You
can see it happening all around you. But they're becoming
increasingly vicious, increasingly nasty toward the unvaccinated. Here is New
(02:39):
York Times writer on MSNBC saying that you've got to
be protected from the unwashed, unvaxed, so to speak. A
majority of Americans do actually fear this virus and understand
the science. They respect it. They've taken steps to protect
themselves and their families, and they have a healthy fear.
(03:02):
And I think, you know, part of what needs to
shift is we need to understand not only the anxieties
of those who are vaccine hesitant or resistant, but we
also need to have a healthy respect for everybody first
of all, but also for the lives and health of
everybody else. Because I think people have a right to
(03:23):
be protected from the unvaccinated, and we are not really
talking about that is that is a serious concern for
millions of Americans protected from the unvaccinated, as if the
unvaccinated are a public menace, which is what actually, just
so you know, that's what the left believes. That is
(03:44):
what the Democrat Party now subscribes to as its primary
theory about all of this. The unvaccinated pose unacceptable risk.
And so it's not just that you have to be
asked or induced or cowerd. Now we've gone on to
the punishment phase. Now we've gone to a place where
(04:05):
you see that if they can get away with taking
punitive action against you, not just encouraging you, not just
giving benefits, punitive action against the unvaccinated, that is the
next stage of all this. Where do they think this ends?
And I just want to know, are you that a
bad person if you can't get a booster shot fast enough?
(04:27):
Let's say you did get vaccinated, but you couldn't get
the booster. This is totalitarian madness. And the people that
are still masking up and listening to Fauci are not
very smart, and they're destroying our free society. They're actually
ruining the country. It's taking them time where they're destroying
the country that we know and love and making it
into something something else. You see, Australia, for example, has
(04:52):
quarantine camps. Some people are using another term for these camps,
but I'll just say quarantine camps. And at your own spence,
they make you, on pain of arrest, have to stay
in these quarantine camps for two weeks. This for a
virus that they were telling us a year ago. Forty
percent of the cases were entirely asymptomatic. Ninety nine percent
(05:15):
plus of people who get it will survive it. But
they'll send you to a quarantine camp. And let's say, oh, well, look,
we eradicated smallpox. Smallpox kills thirty percent of the people
who get it thirty percent. The Spanish flu killed five percent.
This kills about, you know, point five percent. And of
(05:36):
that point five percent of vast majority are at tremendous
risk because of age and comorbidities from things like the
flu or even a cold, bronchial infection, whatever, because they're
much older and they've weakened immune systems. But they want
to completely transform society. This is never going to end, folks.
COVID zero is the policy not just of Australia but
(05:56):
of the elites in this country. Because they're going to
live their lives regardless. They get to excuse themselves from
the dumbest aspects of these policies, but they can enforce
it against all of you. That's what we're seeing now.
Well we've been seeing in this country along, but in
Australia where they have these camps, they're now excluding people
from going from one state to another. You don't think
(06:18):
people in California. You don't think people in blue states
like New York and Massachusetts would love the opportunity to
prevent interstate travel from red states. Well, you already have
over the Texas abortion law. Portland's saying it's going to
cease doing business with Texas, right, So there's some real
tension between the states here. But we are increasingly separating
(06:41):
into two societies within America, those who want to live
their lives and insist on normal lives and those for
whom COVID, theater, fauchiism, and the handwringing cowards of all
the variants. That's the dominant theme in their day to
day lives. And they think that they're good people. They
(07:02):
think that transforming all of our lives so that we
can't live in freedom is somehow something to be proud
of because they take the science seriously. You're seeing coverage
on places like NBC. You'll see Kentucky getting a lot
of a lot of press right now, but you haven't
seen Oregon get a lot of press. Why is that?
(07:24):
Or Hawaii where they've had record numbers of cases. This
virus is just ripping through those who are susceptible to it. Again,
that's what's happening. If you've already had it, if you
have natural immunity, then you're in the best possible shape
against the virus. The vaccines fade. We know that you
can say that and people look at you funny, but
we know that that's true. Here is on Meet the Press,
(07:49):
the Governor of Kentucky. Well, our situation is dire. We
are setting case records. We have a record number of
Kentuckians in the hospital battling COVID in the ICU, battling
for their lives. We have a record number of families
that are praying for their loved one who is on
a ventilator and needing that assistance to breathe. Why aren't
(08:10):
you seeing these stories about Oregon. I'm just I'm wondering
why aren't you seeing that there are blue parts of
the country. Because they have to make this about politics.
They have to make this about the good people and
the bad people, and you see, the bad people are
the ones that question any of this. It's not just
it's not just an issue of the vaccines. Anybody who
(08:31):
has an issue with what's going on here who says
that they won't just go along blindly with this craziness
is essentially the enemy. I mean, our society is being
divided along these lines. People see what's going on. The elites,
the apparatus of control in America, sees what's happening in
Australia with these quarantine camps, and they're not horrified by
(08:53):
the totalitarian overreach of this. Can you imagine being told
if you have something that's basically for you going to
be like a common cold, but you could theoretically spread
it to someone else and they could theoretically have a
much worse outcome. This is also known as what we've
dealt with for all of human history, since we've been
living in villages and settlements together. Yeah, sometimes there are
viruses that spread and there's very little we know Aerosolized
(09:15):
viruses very little we can do about it. Yet here
we are being told, sure enough that quarantine camps are
somehow acceptable two weeks. Imagine if you flew from Texas
to California for work. You arrived in California and they said, hey,
you have to stay in some shack in the middle
(09:37):
of nowhere. You can't see anyone. We'll bring you food
that we determine you should have for two weeks. You
have to pay for it or else will arrest you.
That is what they're doing in Australia right now. And
you know what's amazing, The caseload has hit an all
time high in Australia. So as they're getting more and
more extreme, the cases keep going up and up, almost
(09:59):
like they can't really can control this. They'll never admit that,
of course, but they can't. They can't control it there,
and they're telling us things that are just flatly untrue
behind all of this as well. I mean, here's on
CNN they're saying we're worse off with COVID now than
we're a year ago. This is where they're going to
take you, just in time for the winter season for
(10:20):
lockdowns and school closures. So lazy public sector union teachers.
Unions are gonna be able to tell people to stay home.
There their employees to stay home. They're actually making the
claim in public now the COVID's worse than it's ever been,
the President blaming the surgeon delta variant. But amid holiday
weekend travel and pack stadiums and celebrations, America is acting
(10:43):
like the threat from COVID is over, even though the
fact is we're actually much worse off than we were
a year ago. The seven day average of new cases
up a stunning three hundred percent from Labor Day just
last year. That is d of analysis, because it doesn't.
It's just taking a snapshot of one period of a
(11:04):
snapshot of another. Think of what she's saying. Completely ignores
and I guess we're not supposed to care about it anymore,
completely ignores that you have over what is it now?
One hundred and fifty one hundred and sixty million Americans vaccinated,
plus about one hundred million with natural immunity on top
of that, this only goes away or gets controlled through
(11:28):
her immunity. That's it. There is no other way. All
the masking, all the oh we're gonna do this, Fauci
like bullcrap. Who believes this stuff really works. I'm unfortunate.
A lot of people do. But they're not very smart.
They're not very smart. They certainly are incapable of thinking
for themselves. It's appalling what we're seeing going on right now.
(11:49):
They're never going to give this up, as I've been
saying for a long time. They view this whole mess
as a giant opportunity. They view this mess as it
ants to reorder America and with it, the world. And
it's just it's too enticing for them. I'm gonna give
this up. They also live lives of quiet cowardice, believing
(12:11):
that if they have power and state control and government control,
they'll have meaning. This is the fundamental fallacy of the left,
that if only their people are calling the shots in government,
they'll feel more worthwhile. They'll feel safe, they'll feel secure,
they'll feel powerful. Of course, all these things, but it's
never really true. Purpose comes from within. An individual has
(12:33):
to decide whether he or she is worthwhile every morning
when they get up. It's not about what the government
tells you. It's not how democrats view it. Though, they
still have this absurd belief that if they could get
to full fauciism, we would be in this great, brave
New world, and those who haven't read a Brave New
(12:55):
World time to dust that one off a little bit
given what we are seeing. That much is for sure.

My favorite sheets I've ever had, no question. So there
was a fascinating piece in I think it was the
(14:22):
Wall Street Journal about young men who are essentially giving
up on college as the tournament they use. And here's
some of the statistics about this. This is a big
thing because a part of the American dream for a
long time, and I certainly grew up still in an
era where you were led to believe get an undergrad
(14:42):
degree and then get a house and everything will be fine.
That was kind of those were your big go get
your undergrad degree, Go, get a property that you own,
save up for it, work really hard for it, and
you'll be solidly in the American middle class. But what
about that college degree? What is it worth? Is the
debt that many people incur? Is it too substantial given
(15:08):
the actual benefit you get from this? Is it onerous
to have that amount of debt? Well, here's this piece
of the Wall Street Journal. They write that at the
close of the twenty twenty one academic year, women made
up fifty nine point five percent of college students, men
only forty point five percent. So there are one point
five million fewer students in colleges and universities compared with
(15:32):
five years ago. The decline was seventy one percent men.
So you have about a million, you know, oh well,
one point five a million and a half fewer people
in college, and a vast majority of them are men.
Men aren't going to college in the same numbers. Why
is that? Why is that? Well? The piece goes on
(15:53):
the college gender gap cuts across race, geography, and economic background.
For the most part, white men, once the predominant group
on American campuses, no longer hold a statistical edge, and
enrollment rates, enrollment rates for poor and working class white
men are lower than those of young, black, Latino, and
Asian men from the same socioeconomic backgrounds. So if you
(16:15):
are a white person who is from a working class background,
you are less likely to be in college than male
minority counterparts in American society today. Why is that. There's
a lot going on here. But it's interesting because there's
a constant encouragement of minorities, particularly Black and Latino minorities,
(16:38):
to be in college at And when I say encouragement,
I don't just mean rhetorically with special scholarships on a
firm of action programs for admission, and there's a lot
of effort to always raise those rates, and there's a
tremendous amount of pride. You know, whether you're at Harvard
or you're at state school or even community college, they
will beam with pride over the graduate suation rate of
(17:01):
black and Latino students, irrespective of their socioeconomic background. But
white working class students, that's not a stat that gets
brought up. That's not something that people in the college
admissions office brag about. That they don't really care very much.
They generally will speak to economic inequality, but it's really
a racial Marxism that most concerns the elites who run
(17:24):
the colleges and universities and the balancing that they can
do by bringing in more non white minorities into college
and not caring about the drop off which is now
starting to look substantial in white males, particularly in college.
The piece goes on, young men get little help in
part because schools are focused on encouraging historically underrepresented students.
(17:49):
Few campuses have been willing to spend limited funds on
mail underachievement that would also benefit white men, risking criticism
for assisting those who have historically held the biggest educational advantages.
You see the mentality and display here. There's a sense
of a redistributive imperative because white men historically had an
educational advantage. By the numbers write more white men in
(18:10):
more elite schools graduating in higher numbers. That's no longer
true for those who are working class. But if you
try to address that, any program on a college campus
that tried to help working class white individuals males would
be viewed as suspect. There's no political appetite for it.
(18:34):
If you will, here is a department chair at the
University of Wisconsin named Gerlando Jackson. He says, as a country,
we don't have the tools yet to help white men
who find themselves needing help. To be in a time
when there are groups of white men that are falling
through the cracks, it's hard. Why is this so hard? Well,
because of the politics around us. There are all these
(18:56):
affinity groups and resource centers and all this thing, all
these things on campus for black and Latino and Asian
and foreign and LGBTQ, And they are all these different
groups that the college apparatus reaches out to and tries
very hard to encourage and to raise the numbers of
and there's programs and funding and recruiting and all this stuff.
(19:19):
White working class males, you've had it easy. That's what
the left believes. That's what they really think. It's been easy,
all that white privilege for the white working class males.
But how does that actually manifest itself in day to
day life? What does that actually mean? So now you're
going to tell people that because a generation or two
(19:40):
before them, the demographics favored white males in college, they
have to suffer now to balance it out. They can't
have the resources they can't have the assistance. And then
on top of that, there's just this whole program of
left wing indoctrination and wildly overpriced higher education because the
federal government backs him, and the whole system of college
(20:02):
and university as credentialing is rotten. You don't get into
schools now in countless cases for being super hard working
and bright. There are million different ways in places across
the country. Not technically a million, but you know what
I mean, there are a lot of different ways that
people can get into these schools, a lot of different reasons.
They are taken, so they don't even work as a
(20:26):
credentialing program, and so you might be stuck with the debt.
It's not going to kick doors wide open for you.
What really is the benefit of all this? Some people
are starting to think, particularly working the white males from
working class backgrounds, are low income backgrounds, are starting to think,
you know what, maybe I just want to get a
(20:46):
job out of college. Maybe I don't want to be
a social studies major for four years and graduate with
thirty or forty thousand dollars of non dischargeable debt. But
why don't we encourage that more? Where is the social
support for that, never mind government support for it. Now
everyone has to go to one of these four years school. Look,
(21:07):
let's be honest, college for a lot of people is
one big drinking session. College for a lot of people
is meant to be an opportunity to act in a
sort of juvenile fashion as an adult. That's just the truth.
Even very elite schools and all the way down, all
the way down the US News and World Report rankings.
Oh then there's the Biden economy, and there's some fascinating
(21:32):
stuff right now speaking of wages and all the rest
of the fascinating stuff coming out about what are we
going to do now that the federal three hundred dollar
a week unemployment booster is gone. Speaking of boosters, some
people are saying, hold on, get a job. There are
millions of open jobs out there. But you see, if
(21:54):
the left right now in this country accepted that people
should go back to work, that can flict with the
COVID narrative. So they know that it looks bad economically,
but for their COVID control narrative, they can't really encourage
people to go back to work. Plus, they believe in
redistributive socialist economics, and so they want to give money
to people that comes from you and me. They want
(22:16):
to give money from the productive to those who choose
not to be productive. They like this. This is a
way of getting close to a universal basic income, which
you know has been a dream of the left in
recent years, and this is a way they can get
pretty near to it. You've got Robert Reich who is
(22:39):
on MSNBC saying the benefits should be continued. Well, one
thing we have to do, obviously is strength on our
safety and dads. And this is where the bill that
is winding us way through Congress, that three point five
trillion dollars becomes so critical. It's not as if the
pandemic is going away. In fact, it's not as a
pandemics are going away. People need the help that is
(23:01):
in this three point five trillion dollar bill. They need
to help with childcare, they need to help with a
safety net that is a stronger safety net. People need
to make sure that a children, in fact, all of
us have a responsibility make child They're sure that the
child poverty drops. It's all in this bill. I think
the real question is is there enough urgency? Do people
(23:23):
care enough? Is there enough sense that the timing is
right to get this bill actually enacted along with the
infrastructure bill. Both are critical. Both are critical. He says
more money spent, as if the trillions spent during a
downturn in the economy was not enough, has to be more.
(23:43):
These people are socialists. The Democrat Party in America is
the socialist party. They just don't they know what that
would mean if they adopted the actual verbiage, so they
tiptoe around it. But do you think that they in
a perfect world for Pelosi and Schumer and Biden because
they're all rich already. They don't care. Economic productivity doesn't
(24:06):
really as long as their servants show up on time
and they get to continue to be part of the
elite and live in super fancy mansions and lord over
the rest of us what to do all the time,
they're perfectly happy. It doesn't matter to them. They don't
care about the right to rise. They don't care about
the ability that people should have to better themselves in
(24:27):
their financial situation. Pelosi's situations good enough. In fact, she'd
rather you not be able to make more money and
become more independent of state resources because that hurts her
power and Also, one thing you'll know about a lot
of rich libs. They don't like other people getting rich.
They like being rich, and they like virtue signaling about
how much they care about the poor. But the moment
(24:49):
you want to actually take more of their money, tax
them more, they become ardent capitalists suddenly. But in terms
of social policy, in terms of socialism, they go all
in on it. They think it's fantastic other people because
they know the middle class will pay for benefits that
supposedly help the middle class but really go to the
non productive underclass in this country and continue to run
(25:12):
with the dead into a place where it threatens the
entire economy, threatens the value of our currency. None of
that matters to them. They just don't care. Coming to
Afghanistan stuff in a second here. But as you know,
big tech monitors, US censors, US and d platforms, US
and conservatives have been help us to do anything about
it until now. On get Or, you can talk with

(26:19):
Cancel culture. So it turns out that the Biden administration
wants to take credit now, the Bide administration State Department
wants to take credit for getting four US citizens out
of Afghanistan that they had very little to do with,
and they had to get out over land. There are
delays at Kobble Airport still and the delays apparently are
coming from the State Department side. And on top of
(26:42):
all of that, we are finding out we are being
told that the vetting process for the tens of thousands
of Afghan refugees that are going to be resettled in
America was to put it mildly haphazard. They didn't really
have much of a betting process. They didn't really prepare
(27:02):
in the way that they could have and should have.
But there was no time to think or talk about
it because what was the most important thing at the time, well,
what mattered more than anything else the Biden administration was
the optics of it, and getting people out was something
that they wanted to show large numbers of and they
(27:24):
also wanted to take the opportunity to resettle a whole
lot of folks in America because I remember, the Democrat
left is really open borders. They don't believe in the
sovereignty of US borders. If they can violate them, they
absolutely will and they do day to day. In fact,
the Biden administration, it came out over the weekend. I
thought this was fascinating. Has some of the officials in
(27:46):
it have breathed a sigh of relief? This was reported
over the weekend over Remained in Mexico policy coming back,
which is the Trump policy, because the US Mexico border
is such a mess that they know they need the
main in Mexico policy to begin to turn back the
title US. It never stops. Basically, what they're telling you
(28:09):
about the US Mexico border, what the bid administration claims
that they want to do something about it, they want
to help, that's a lie. They want to continue with
the chaos and madness as it is. But back to
Afghanistan for a second. There are real reasons to be
very concerned about what's going to happen in the next
few months there. Even if you don't really care about
the reconstruction project in Afghanistan and you know, the women's
(28:32):
rights issues and all these other things that, I mean,
you can care about it, but do you want to
send troops in to do something about it? Joey Jones,
friend of the show and Fox News contributor, former EOD
Tech Curious Place six is there is there just as
much of a threat, if not a more empowered threat. Absolutely.
I mean, you can't look at twenty years of war
(28:53):
and not think we've probably made more enemies there. They
really embolden the Taliban by going in rooting young men
that get romanticized on the idea of jihad, and a
lot of them. Most of them probably come from Pakistan
and the Madrasas there. So the idea of radical Islam
it is probably stronger now than it's ever been. The
one thing that's different is our own defenses here at home,
(29:16):
the way we're looking at threats, the way we survey things,
and the way we look at who comes into our
country or supposed to look at who comes into our country.
I can tell you, just as someone with a top
secret clearance read in on things that have already happened
to learn from we deter threats. I mean, every single
day what happens in Afghanistan going forward does become a
(29:37):
platform for international terror. We will continue to follow this
very closely. And obviously the hottest narrative is seizing upon
the withdrawal from Afghanistan, but also the upcoming nine to
eleven Memorial Day. We will get into this. We will
get into this in the days ahead. I've I've got
a feeling we've got some tough stuff that's coming our way.
