Speaker 1 (00:00):
Third hour of play in Buck kicks off right now.
Thanks for being here, everybody. We have Isabelle Brown with us.
She is the host of The isabel Brown Show on
all social platforms or Daily Flyer plus. Isabelle, I think
first time we've had you on radio, but you and
I go way back from the first TV in the
digital days.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
How you doing doing fantastic? So excited to be here.
I actually think I have been on once, if memory serves,
a year and a half plus ago, right before the
release of my book, and it's crazy how much life
has changed since then.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
So it's great to be back. Fantastic to have you back.
Your memory is better than mine, which is not surprising
because I'm about to be forty four years old, so
I am getting more forgetful. So welcome back. It's been
eighteen months. We should have had you back sooner, but
here we are. I hope the book. Hope the book
is fantastic, by the way, So just take us into
the scene a little bit here. I ten years ago,
(00:53):
I used to do CNN. It's been a long time now.
It's basically been about ten years since I've done CNN.
You were on CNN last night, we'll play. Oh, we
have the cut for everybody, So you're what is the show?
You can tell everybody what this one is?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
This is This was Abby Phillips panel show that runs
during the ten pm hour, and boy it was pretty
spicy last night.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Yeah yeah, yeah, So let's let's let everyone hear just
a little, a little taste, a little snippet here. This
is cut twenty seven play.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
You can speculate all you want, but the authorities who
are charging this guy haven't laid out a motive. That's
all I've said. The other thing is that no, I'm
not suggesting that he was tied to stop the steal,
but I'm not sure.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
You're question after January So it's called the hypothetic individual.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
So it's called the hypothetical. Had he been prosecuted alongside
all of those other people who were involved in violent
acts on January sixth, would Donald Trump have pardoned him?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
No? Because individuals who are why not the Capitol building
on January six We're not planting pipe bomb?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
What about the ones you see? But what about the
ones that was the American It's to me that now
have no idea what the moment?
Speaker 4 (02:02):
What on this? What about MSM is about what about
the time for eight hours of what about the people
who the American This was intended to bonement.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
Additional what to detract reinforcement.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
They you don't want to you don't want to grapple
with the what happened question? Let me ask you, Let
me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question.
What about the people who assaulted and beat police officers
on January? I have regularly said, do you think do
you think that they are just test passing that they
were wrongfully prosecuted?
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Well on set.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Didn't beat police office in January sixth?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay, so there's I know, everyone's like, whoa, what's going on?
It's like they're in the middle of the scrum, the
melee that's going on there. Can I give it to
you to just make make your initial point because it
seems like the host there slash whoever else is kind
of you know, chiming in doesn't understand that walking into
the Capitol and taking a selfie and planning a pipe
(03:05):
bomb are different things. Work through that for us.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Well, you know, it's obvious that everything is violence except
actual violence. To the left right, words are violence ideas
or violence. The American flag is violence, but planting pipe
bombs actually isn't violent. I guess according to CNN, that
was just one of many different topics we covered on
this very fiery panel last night, I, of course, being
(03:29):
the metaphorical punching bag, where every question I was asked
two words in the host just immediately spoke over me
and completely ignored everything that I was saying. For example,
I answered that question I think there was one snippet
there about if violent protesters deserve to be pardoned or not.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I said, of course not.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
If anyone is beating a police officer, of course they
need to be in prison for such behavior. And then
she just completely ignored that six or seven times. But
what was really interesting to me is this panel was
so obsessed with running interference for anyone that they remotely
as associated with being on the left. And when it
came to this particular conversation about the arrest that was
made against Brian Cole Junior, the alleged pipe bomber from
(04:08):
January fifth, is when he planted those bombs twenty twenty one,
but they were discovered on January sixth, in the midst
of all the chaos. They literally had the audacity to say, well,
let's just.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
State the obvious.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
This guy's black, so he'll never get a presidential pardon
for planting pipe bombs. The obsession that these people have,
particularly the left wing establishment media, with excusing any sort
of political violence as long as it fits their agenda,
if that's something as ridiculous as planting a pipe bomb,
or a school shooting against Catholic school children.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Because they're Catholic and therefore are.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Somehow extremists for our country, or even all out assassinations
of people like our friend Charlie Kirk. It's becoming so
obvious to me in the last three months, more than
ever before in my career, that the demons are getting
louder and evil is being exposed with every passing day.
The literal darkness I felt in the CNN studio yesterday
(05:03):
was very palpable. I said that to my team as
I walked out, And I'm realizing, after these last few months,
I don't know that I'll ever be the same again,
realizing how strong that evil has taken hold in our country.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
So we just went into kind of an intense and
serious direction there. But it is a Friday, and I'm
actually now is well, you can't. I don't think you
can see this, but I am now holding the famous
fellow known as Baby Speed.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Oh I can't see I wish I could.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
He he's Anyone who's watching on the YouTube can see it.
And he's now speaking up a little bit. Oh there
he is grabbing a microphone. He's a lot of fun.
This is what happens during live radio. You and I
have a child about the same age. WHOA, Okay, he
loves the mic. I'm gonna give him back now we
have a child about the same age. That was just
for all the video video watchers. What's it like? What's
(05:52):
the what's the whole parent thing been like for you?
And whoa? There he is? Sorry. I love the Baby Speed.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
He wants to have his own podcast because my daughter
Aila constantly is talking all the time. I keep saying,
there's a lot of money to be out in a
baby podcast somewhere, so maybe we should start one.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I had my daughter at the end of April, but
there was April thirtieth, and truly, as I'm sure you know,
as a new parent, my whole life has changed in
all of the best ways since then. I am a
completely different person. I view the world completely differently, but
in the most beautiful, holistic way. I think there's such
a greater purpose to what I do every day. Gives
me a reason to jump out of bed in the morning,
(06:31):
to know exactly what I'm fighting for. And I've never
experienced this depth of love ever before in my life.
It is truly.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Magical, it is it is incredible. I honestly I love
being a parent every single day and even the days
when the sleep is not great. And maybe Speed is
a pretty amazing baby, but he could be you know,
he's a baby. He can get a little fussy. Sometimes
at night I will say, my wife is incredible and
she handles like ninety percent of the really challenging stuff,
but I pitch in sometimes. I try to be a
(06:58):
very involved dad. But I I do think and I
want to you're are you gen Z or you like
you know you're gen Z and.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Very very proudly the first year of gen Z, I
will wear that as a badge of honor till the
day time.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
You are gen Z. I think that there is just
for my observation that people are now in the culture
here in America thinking about family and building families in
a more just generally in a very positive way. But
also I'm talking about the youth, you know, the young
people now and at a younger age, like I feel
(07:33):
like there has been a shift toward family, toward thinking
at least about family. The numbers, I know don't bear
this out. The numbers are that we're going down, but
I feel like the conversation has changed. Is that wishful
thinking on my part? How do you know?
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Right?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I think that's a very beautiful and accurate diagnosis of
where young people's culture is at in this country. You're right,
the numbers are very, very sad when it comes to
the state of America's fertility rate that includes just the
choice to have children. We are at a a one
hundred year low fertility rate in our country, which is
coupled with one of the lowest marriage rates we've ever
had in our country's history. That is the legacy and story, sadly,
(08:10):
of the millennial generation who was constantly bombarded with anti
marriage and anti family messaging. That messaging has gotten so
overtly loud and honestly crazy, Like people are actually running
headlines like the Los Angeles Times last year just before
the election, it is almost shameful to want to have children.
(08:31):
Real headline that I think people are starting to see
between the lines and read between all of this craziness
to realize there is a very clear agenda to make
you lonely, depressed, and miserable. I mean, for God's sakes,
the last Surgeon General of the United States, our top
ranking doctor under the Biden admin, actually issued a public
health warning that parenting is dangerous to your health. This
(08:55):
was real, on the record from the federal government, because
it seems making more people somehow makes you more lonely,
which makes no sense, right. But young people are also
having this massive revival of faith, and I think so
much of that has to do with voices like Charlie Kirk,
like the Clay and Buck show here, and so many
other people that are tapping into this spiritual crisis young
(09:17):
people have had for several generations. Now realizing we have
to fight for what is good and true and beautiful
in culture way more than we ever fight for politics.
And at the cornerstone of that is reviving the American family.
All of my friends are engaged, married, or having babies.
My best friend shout out to Savannah had her baby
last night, first baby, and it's just so exciting to
see that revival of family all across our country, led
(09:39):
by gen Z.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
I also think this is maybe a little bit of
an aside, but it's related. You know, they've walked back,
and Bill Gates and others have walked back some of
the climate change doomerism stuff that's out there, and I
feel like they owe an apology to be They managed
to convince some people this was a real thing. It's
(10:01):
hard to think that it could be, but it was
real that climate extinction or climate change extinction was so severe,
meaning that if people didn't stop stop having kids, we
would go extinct because we would overstress the resources of
the planet. It's a crazy idea, but they convince people
(10:22):
of that, Isabelle, And now they're like, yeah, maybe we
missed the mark on that a little bit.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Yeah, in case you didn't hear this, because lord knows,
the media didn't cover it. Just a few days ago,
Bill Gates came forward and said, yeah, oops, actually there
is no climate crisis anymore. We fixed it. Sorry to
have alarmed you that we're all going to die in
literally twelve years. I mean, the propaganda is just insanity.
But I have to say, I'm just so encouraged to
see ordinary people, regardless of where you fall in the
(10:48):
political spectrum or what your personal deepest held values are,
realizing that life is meant to be shared with the
people that we love. Just a few days ago, the
Wall Street Journal came to our house and covered my
family on the cover of the Wall Street Journal about
the revival of the American family and young women really
tapping into this idea that we can have thriving careers
and entrepreneurship and some of the girl boss culture without
(11:11):
the toxic corporate element to that. But more importantly, that
means nothing if we don't have our children to share
it with in a legacy to build upon which had
resoundingly positive effects and lots of great response from people.
So I'm incredibly excited about this family revival. My daughter
means so much more to me than any paycheck ever will.
And the response I'm getting, even from young women on
(11:33):
the very radical left about this, that they're quitting their
birth control, they're deleting their dating apps, they are desperate
to find a god fearing husband and wanting to build
a family out of the big city and restoring American
roots of what the American dream has always looked like.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
I love to see it. Can you just have a
little conversation though, with some of your female millennial peers.
These oversized like dad, they're not even dad jeens. I
don't know what they are, these giant jeans that these
women are walking around.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Am I wearing baggy jeans from the nineties right now?
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Yes? Yes, I am. You know what I'm all about it.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
The mom jean has made a return, and my post
part of mom body is grateful for it.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Ali is she wearing ma Am I telling her to
shut down the mom jeans and she's wearing them right
now in the studio. Oh they're not like okay, but
they are these jeans that I see these young women wearing.
I'm like, you might as well be wearing a burka.
I'm just saying this is crazy talk, but apparently some
of you think they're comfortable. I'm not a fashion guys.
(12:36):
I sit here in a T shirt, but I know.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It's funny you say burka. I actually saw several burkas
in the wild in Washington, d C.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
A few days ago.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
So sadly, here in New York where I am too.
I think that will probably be one of the next
fashion statements. If we don't bring back a classic cut
bootcut jean.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
I'm all about the classic American jean. All right, Isabel Brown,
Isabel Brown show, go check it out. Every buddy and Isabel,
thank you for being here with us. Great to talk
to you. Thanks for coming to hang with the team
in New York.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Thanks for having me back. Merry Christmas, everybody, Merry Christmas.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
There's not another nonprofit out there that does what Preborn does,
and I'm so glad that they're doing what they do
because Preborn is saving the lives of tiny babies day
in and day out. Consider how they welcome Victoria at
one of their clinics. Before she visited one of the
Preborn clinics, Victoria found herself at a planned parenthood facility.
She was scared, confused, and desperate. She was handed the
(13:30):
abortion pill, but almost immediately she thought that would be
a tragic mistake. The way to regret was so crushing
she even thought about ending her own life. But her
continuing search led her to a Preborn Network clinic, where
truth and clarity broke through. Their loving staff members gave
her immediate care and helped her save not just her
baby's life, but her own. Victoria got truthful answers about
(13:51):
matters related to her unborn child at that preborn clinic,
because when a mother hears it, lives are saved. Just
twenty eight dollars provides a free ultrasound to women like Victoria.
That single gift, that experience of meeting her unborn child,
makes all the difference. This is your chance to make
a difference too. Will you answer the call, pick up
your phone, dial pound two fifty and say baby. That's
(14:12):
pound two five zero, Say baby. Or donate securely at
preborn dot com, slash buck, preborn dot com, slash b
Uck do it now because Life Matters sponsored by Preborn.
Sometimes all you can do is laugh, and.
Speaker 6 (14:29):
They do a lot of it with the Sunday Hang
Join Clay and Buck as they.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
Lap it up in the Clay and Buck podcast feat
on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts now.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I mentioned it before, this fraud that has been uncovered
in Minnesota. Minneapolis more specifically is where it's really located,
and it's pretty staggering numbers, billions of dollars and it
is all revolving around members of the Somali American in community,
(15:02):
and people are rightly asking questions like, Okay, did they
really not know that this was going on? Was was
this complete? This was able to fly under the radar
in fact, Minneapolis mayor this guy, I will never forget
of all the moments. I actually, well, I don't know.
(15:25):
This is a tough one. Which is the more preposterous
memory Nancy Pelosi in the BLM era with other members
of Congress like can I think Schumer was one of them,
But Nancy Pelosi kneeling with Kent take cloth around her shoulders,
she actually did. Do you remember that of these Democrats
(15:46):
with Kent take cloth which is associated with West Africa,
has nothing to do with anything, but it was from Ghana.
But that that was pretty preposterous. Or the mayor of Minneapolis,
Jacob fraynewing and crying at the casket of George Floyd.
(16:08):
That was a thing that happened. What you don't know
this guy, he was a like a career criminal. He
died of a fentanyl overdose. I know that legally speaking,
they said that the officer and they never introduced the
actual way that he was trained with a whole that
I can't get it all. At the point is get
a lot of fentanel in his system when he died.
(16:30):
And yes, technically that officer was charged with murder. They
charged that other guy, the other cop who was just
there all. He just got out a few years.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
That's horrible what they did to that guy. Horrible.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
He didn't do anything, but you know, racial reckoning to
have to just throw people to the angry him up anyway.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey was asked about whether he should
have stopped the fraud in the Somali community of Minneapolis sooner.
Should this have been figured out? This is what he said,
Plate twenty one.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
This was a fraud scheme that robbed taxpayers of three
hundred million dollars through a program meant to provide children
with meals, fraud that went on for two years. Should
Governor Walls when it comes to the fraud itself, should
he have known about this and stopped it sooner?
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I can't speak to the ins and outs of who
knew what when, But the bottom line is that fraudsters
should be held accountable for their fraud. That's a non answer,
and I know that he's going to give a non answer.
What's he going to say. I don't really care that
the Somalis, small Americans stole all this stuff, that they
(17:36):
did their community votes in one big block for Jacob
Pray or for you know, whoever the Democrat is. That's
going to continue. The various gravy trains continue the perpetuation
of these schemes in one way or another. So that's
where it is. Looking for ways to save money in

Taxes and fees non included. Some restrictions supply seeperetalk dot
com or detail. Welcome back in everybody. Our guest here
running for governor of California. He lives in California, and
when he's hearing us talk about this story of rampant
(19:04):
and really disgraceful fraud in Minneapolis, he says, oh, hold
my beer, Minnesota. Let me tell you about a little
place called California. Steve Hilton is with us now, mister Hilton,
thanks for coming back.
Speaker 5 (19:17):
Of course, hey, but great to be with you. What
a disaster. I mean, here's the point, right.
Speaker 7 (19:21):
You look at Minnesota and what's being revealed there, it
is disgusting and shocking. But in California everything is a
thousand times worse. First of all, We've had one party
rule for longer in California. In minnesota's been three years,
in California fifteen years. And it's this one party rule
that breeds this kind of corruption and an abuse of
(19:42):
taxpayer trust. And then on top of that, we were
the first state in California to have a statewide sanctuary policy.
We are the home of the open borders insanity, and
that ideology is still held deeply by the Democrats in
charge here in California. You can see the way they're
fighting the President on every aspect of his immigration agenda.
And then you look at the fraud that we already
(20:04):
know about in California, twenty billion dollars in the pandemic
for just the employment department, stolen by criminal gangs and
people getting checks when they're on death row and all
this nonsense. Then you have twenty four billion dollars the
state auditor revealed lost on homelessness spending that ended up
(20:25):
in the pockets of crony nonprofits and all this corruption there.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
And then you.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
Add to that again this is official money that shouldn't
be being spent. Thirteen billion dollars this year in the
budget from Gavin Newston for free healthcare for illegal immigrants
that shouldn't even be here in the country. That's just
my basic math. You don't even need Tim Walt's level
accounting skills. That's fifty seven billion dollars that we know about,
(20:51):
and as before you get into the rest of the
bloated nanny state bureaucracy and welfare system here in California.
So that's why this week I did two things. I
set up a fraud hotline, because a pipline, because you
saw in Minnesota so many brave and honest state workers.
They're trying to blow the whistle on all this for years,
(21:11):
but being silenced and intimidated by Tim Wolds and the
Democrat machine. So I've set up a line califraud dot
com for state workers in California to tell us.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
What's going on.
Speaker 7 (21:20):
And secondly, I've been in touch with Christy Nome, who
made that a shocking revelation at the Cabinet meeting this
week that half of the visas that they looked at
in Minnesota were fraudulent. I said, look, we need that
kind of investigation here in California too. I wrote her
a letter about that. I've been talking to senior leadership
at DHS who agree with me that an investigation is warranted.
(21:42):
So hopefully we can make some progress on exposing this
kind of nonsense right here in California.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Twenty four billion dollars spend in California, as you call it,
on the homeless industrial complex. I mean, one thing that
I remember seeing is Gavin Newsom, right when he became
governor the first time, talking about how, you know, I'm
going to bring homelessness down to the lowest rates. And
it's gone nothing but up. It's just home. The homelessess
(22:08):
problem in California has only gotten worse since he has
been in office. So what do they spend the twenty
four billion dollars on?
Speaker 7 (22:16):
Well, I tell you, actually, just to sort of underline
the point, I think we're now in with it. The
twenty I lose track. I think it's the twenty second
year of Gavin Newsom's plan to end homelessness in ten years.
I mean, it's just a joke. The money goes, as
I said, into the pockets of there's the two. The
two big components of what we call the homeless industrial
(22:37):
complex are crony nonprofits who pretend to solve the homelessness problem.
But actually they're they're they're doing work that continues to
let it.
Speaker 5 (22:48):
Continue without being addressed.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
So, for example, they're providing what they call permanent supportive housing,
that is a euphemism for a home with no strings attached.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
That costs a fortune.
Speaker 7 (23:01):
I've got friends who are, you know, supporters of mine
in the house building industry, building apartments three of all
the government nonsense and all the corruptions attached to this.
Here in California, they can build an apartment for I
don't know, two hundred and fifty three hundred thousand dollars
a door, as they call it. So that's the unit cost.
The cost for these homeless industrial complex apartments, permanent supportive
(23:22):
housing eight hundred thousand dollars nine hundred thousand just now
San Francis in the Bay Area a million dollars. So
it's four times the cost for exactly the same kind
of building. Why because it's being eaten up in payments
to the other component of it, not just the crony nonprofits,
but the crony affordable housing developers, all of whom are
(23:45):
massive donors to New Some of the Democrat politicians, both
at the state level and locally, and they get these
massively inflated contracts to build this stuff, and they're running
away with the taxpayer money. And meanwhile the problem gets
worse because none of these units have any strings attached.
So people who we know that eighty percent plus of
people who are homeless have drug addictional, alcohol addiction, mental
(24:06):
health problems, they get given these homes with those strings attached,
so they end up back on the street, dealing drugs,
using drugs.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
It's just a.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
Total disaster, all of it totally corrupt, and we've got
to bring it into it.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I speaking of building, I saw something where I think
it was supposed to be a moment of congratulations in
Los Angeles County. But Mayor Karen Bass correct me if
I'm wrong. They're they're applauding themselves because they just approved
the first like four bedroom house since the Palisades fire
(24:41):
devastated whole neighborhoods, whole areas of Los Angeles, they've approved
the four bedroom house to be rebuilt. Is that right?
Speaker 7 (24:49):
Oh bug, I'm so glad you mentioned this. I literally
was there yesterday afternoon. I walked right past it, made
little video and we'll be posting that I think over
the weekend.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
So here's the deal.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
They trumpeted the first house fully rebuilt.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
After the fire.
Speaker 7 (25:04):
What's the truth about this house.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
First of all, it's not a real house.
Speaker 7 (25:07):
It's a show home built by developer. No one's ever
going to live in it. Secondly, it was all approved
and permitted before the fires. The fires. The one thing
that they didn't get was a permit for bulldozing what
was on the property beforehand, but that took care of
itself with the fires. They didn't need the permit. So
(25:29):
the whole thing is a farce. And this is what
they're trumpeting as a success.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
Reminded, right and just on the day.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
When Newsom is in DC saying we need federal money,
we need, we need, Trump's not giving us the support
that we need. When it was Gavin Newsom nearly a
year ago now, who stood there in the smoldering debris
of the Palisades fire and told NBC News. But I've
put the video clip out again yesterday to nine people,
I am developing a Marshall plan. That's his quote, a
(25:59):
Marshall plan to rebuild LA and it can barely do
one house. I mean, this guy's a complete joke.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
It's astonishing. We're speaking of Steve Hilton. He's running for
governor in California, and I certainly hope you're able to
continue to make a lot of noise about what's going
on in that state, Steve, because it needs help. But
I also wanted you to tell us your take on this.
I'm sure you might have. You probably saw this. It
got a little overshadowed by some other news stories this week,
(26:28):
but I'll just tell you. I'll tell you what happened.
Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania was asked about his portrayal
in Kamala's awful book One hundred and seven Days, which
I will tell you just because I got to take
a bow for this one. I read. I read so
that somebody on this show, because I told Clay only
one of us has to hop on this hand grenade.
(26:50):
So I said, I will read. I'll read it. So
I read one hundred and seven Days. It was terrible,
felt like it was one hundred and seven days to
read it. And she basically said Shapiro was like arrogant,
and this is in the whole VP race component of
her campaign. I bring it up because Shapiro apparently just
swatted this down with she's just trying to cover her
(27:11):
behind and she's an absolute crane wreck. More or less
is that I know that we you and I feel
that way because we can observe reality. Are Democrats pretty
called on Kamala in California?
Speaker 7 (27:26):
Yes, they don't want to see her back in any
kind of race. There was no support for her floating
the idea of running for governor.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
The donors weren't behind.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
It, the activists weren't behind it, and they said, please,
that's the last thing we want. And that's so even
in her home state for running for governor, there was
no support for that.
Speaker 5 (27:45):
And you've got to believe Shapiro.
Speaker 7 (27:47):
On this because we see the pattern with people like
Kamala Harris, and with Gavin Newsom and with Biden. They're
all the same. They're these machine politicians. They don't believe
in anything. They'll say whatever is convenient to try and
climb that political ladder and further their careers. They have
no principles, no beliefs, no convictions, nothing, and that's why
they end up saying totally different things, contradictory things all
(28:10):
the time. They lie for a living, they are pathological liars,
and so on this particular one. You've got to assume
that Shapiro's right. But there's no appetite for Kamala Harris
here in California, just as there isn't across the country
if she decides to run for president.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Are you already seeing though the early efforts by the
newsome for President Kevin right? Are you hearing the super
fancy fundraisers in Malibu or are they going to be getting
the your derves ready here in short order order? What
can you tell us about those machinations?
Speaker 7 (28:44):
Well, not so much in Malibu because they haven't been
able to rebuild their homes in mae.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Oh, whoops, Yeah, I forgot about that. Somewhere else were
their fancy Beverly Hills.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Exactly, you've got to build the luxury mansions back before
you do that, though, I don't know, you're definitely certainly
there's a he's in a different category to Kamla. They
believe he's a winner, They really do. They think that
he's the guy.
Speaker 5 (29:05):
They are lining up behind him.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
I'm hearing that definitely from the donor community in California.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
They're going to be proud and.
Speaker 7 (29:12):
Excited to support him. So you know, watch out America.
The worst and as I call him, Mugger, the most
useless governor in America. He's coming your way to try
and replicate on a national stage what he's done here
in California, which is the worst results in the country.
The highest gas prices, highest electric bills, highest unemployment rate,
highest poverty rate, highest costs for everything that matters, fiftieth
(29:33):
out of fifty states on affordability, fiftieth out of fifty
states on opportunity. And this guy thinks, can I just
tell you one last story if we have time?
Speaker 5 (29:41):
Sure, and got much.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
Attention, this just came to light. It's such a newsome classic.
So just nearly seven years ago, in his first budget
as governor, he made a huge fuss about the fact
that the state's emergency communication system was antiquated, analogue total disaster,
not fit for per as if they're fires or an earthquake.
He was going to modernize the whole thing. So here's
(30:05):
what was announced this week. In the intervening nearly seven years,
they have spent half a billion dollars on this new,
essentially new phone line and at the end of it all,
it doesn't work at all, and they've just announced that
they're scrapping the whole thing. This guy, for half a
billion dollars can't even produce a working phone line, and
(30:27):
he wants to be president. I mean, it's just such
a joke.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
I saw that your possible competition here. I don't think
she's announced yet, but people on the Democrats side talking
about the Katie Porter. But her numbers are looking a
little shaky because the more people know about Katie Porter,
it seems the less they want to support Katie Porter
for governor of California.
Speaker 7 (30:48):
Well, funny enough, I'm just in San Jose today.
Speaker 5 (30:50):
I was just literally on the debate.
Speaker 7 (30:52):
It's not really a debate, they call it a candidates forum,
with Katie Porter and a couple of the others, including
billionaire climate fanatic Tom Stone, who I had great fun
pointing out is one of the main architects of the
fact that everything's so expensive in California.
Speaker 5 (31:07):
So she's still in the race.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Her numbers are down a little bit, but not collapsed
at all. But the new entrant that we're all very
excited to see what happens with this Our friend Eric Swolwell,
who's now running, and so, as I say often, I
can't decide which who I'd rather face in the general election.
Katie Porter with the endless opportunity for mash potato jokes
(31:29):
or Eric with the endless opportunity for.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
Fang fang jokes. I don't know.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
I don't know which to choose in terms of my preference.
Speaker 1 (31:37):

years ago. I used to do the buck brief on
national security. I did like fifteen minutes of just everything
Venezuela that you need to know. So if you want
to get really caught up in Venezuela, I could probably
do it here in the radio show too. I don't know,

Another game then coming in Seattle, then back in Los Angeles.
Alexi Lawless pronounces our draw stellar. So very good day,
(35:40):
very good result here. Hope everybody has a fantastic weekend.
I hope Buck is able to keep his toes warm
with those warm blankets that he has from Cozy Earth
down in Miami.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
See all on Monday, Bye. I'm going to be enjoying
my Cozy Earth blankets this weekend, sir. I'm probably gonna
be snuggled up with Carrie and Bay me speed in
Ginger Spice under my Cozy Earth blanket, watching a Samurai
show which is actually pretty good. Last Samurai Standing I
think or something. I'm enjoying it. It's subtitles though, so
you gotta be cool with that. The US grouping is
(36:12):
USA Paraguay and uh Paraguay, Paraguay whatever in Australia. Alls's yeah,
that's good. That's good for us. You know. If America
can't beat Paraguay, we got Ecuador too. That might be
a little a little trickier, is that what I'm saying?
My right, I'm not sure if that's the right grouping
(36:34):
or not. Definitely Paraguay though, because Clay said that, and
if anything's wrong, just blame Clay. That's always my that's
always my routine. Have a great weekend, everybody. I'll see
you on Monday, so we'll play talk to you then
