Sen. Rubio Has A Lot to Say to Clay & Buck

31 Aug 2022

BUCK: We’ve got Senator Marco Rubio of the great state of Florida with us. Senator Rubio, appreciate you making the time, sir.

SEN. RUBIO: Thanks for having me on.

BUCK: So, last week you tweeted a Red Wave is coming. We’ve been talking about this wave for many months now. It felt like a couple of weeks ago it was maybe losing a little bit of momentum, but now the polls and I think the national sense is it may be moving back in our direction. Tell us what you think’s going on here, and how do we make sure that this wave shatters the collectivist lunacy of Fauciism, tax-and-spend Bidenism and all the rest of it?

SEN. RUBIO: Well, I think first and something you guys well understand is, you know, politics, political coverage these days is done by people who have narratives to push. So, it gets boring after a few months to write about how Biden is doing terrible and the Democrats are gonna get swamped; so, then there’s this effort to say we need a counternarrative, and that’s what you’re seeing now.

But eventually, especially after Labor Day in every one of these elections things settle down. Here’s the fundamental truth. And they can chirp all they want about this, that, or the other. Most Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, they’re not happy with the economy, they think America’s weaker and less safe, they think our streets are less safe. They think our policies are making us worse off, not better off.

And one party’s in charge of every branch of government. They’re in charge of the Congress, they’re in charge of the White House. And so, Americans logically are gonna conclude the only way to deal with everything going in the wrong direction is to replace the people who control the decisions that are being made right now. And I think that’s where we’re headed. Now, I can’t speak for every state in the country. I imagine it’s hard to build, you know, a Red Wave in some states around the country.

But in Florida, I mean, not just Republicans, but people who have any common sense are ready to go vote. They’re going to come out and they’re going to vote, and we have to make sure that that happens so we can at least — midterms are about checks and balances, and right now there are no checks in balances in Washington on the lunacy of the far left.

CLAY: Speaking of the far left, the pictures from the Mar-a-Lago raid are out. We haven’t been focusing on this a ton, but I’m curious, Senator Rubio, what you think about the Department of Justice, which says, “Oh, these are such top secret, dangerous documents,” that they’re staging photographs from inside of Mar-a-Lago to be able to release. What’s your thoughts on this story? Is it gonna go away? What should Republicans do, coming down the home stretch here of the midterms?

SEN. RUBIO: Well, let me say something. That has been my core issue from the very beginning, okay? They have to have known before they went in that this was gonna reek of politics, and they should be very strong guardians of the public confidence that half the country has on whether or not they’re acting politically or not.

I mean, it’s one of the things — it’s one of the reasons why the Justice Department has long said, you know, we don’t prosecute people three months from an election. We’ll wait ’til after the election ’cause we don’t want to look political. It’s one of the reasons why they don’t discuss even the existence of investigations with the press. That’s not been the case here. It’s been leak after leak after leak. We don’t know if the leaks are true or not, but clearly someone in the Justice Department is telling things to the media to try to shake the narrative.

And then you have the pictures that are part of that filing, and then there’s the more fundamental challenge, and that is if in fact the information that was being improperly stored, ’cause that’s the allegation, the information is improperly stored at Mar-a-Lago, if in fact it rises to that level, then the congressional committees in charge of counterintelligence should have been informed of that. We were never, ever — and we’ve asked in a bipartisan way, we’ve asked, tell us what this stuff is that you claim is so sensitive and so serious.

And they have yet to do it and they never did it previously when they have an obligation to come in and tell. They tell us stuff all the time, the most sensitive information available to the U.S. government is we’re briefed on all the time. Never once been told that there’s some massive counterintelligence threat right underneath our nose. And so, to me, I just think a lot of this continues to create at least a perception that it is deeply politicized, and it does tremendous harm to our institutions, especially important ones, so important to the country like the FBI and the Justice Department.

CLAY: Not to mention you know about secure documents and intelligence. Given the fact that the FBI investigated Hillary Clinton and then cleared her when we know that she had classified documents, have you seen anything that suggests that what Trump has done is way worse than Hillary Clinton, which would justify prosecution when her classified documents and email, which theoretically would have been easier to spread, I would think, than hard copies, were just waved off as not prosecutable by the FBI?

SEN. RUBIO: Well, in her case, they actually destroyed the evidence. Right? They actually destroyed telephones and wiped and cleaned out computers. It was sitting there on a device that was connected to the internet, which means that it could have been accessed that way and potentially was. We don’t know. I mean, that’s never been discussed. So, in some ways I’d say that is far worse in regards to not just the possession of this information but the way in which it was destroyed so that no investigation could possibly find it.

And here what you have at its core, if taken at face value, let’s say that everything they’re saying is true, what they’re really arguing is that classified documents are being improperly stored in a facility that is not constructed or built for proper storage of classified information. I mean, that’s at the core of their allegation. In the case of Hillary Clinton, it’s you’re in possession of highly classified information, and it’s sitting on a device that’s connected to the internet. And when we tried to go find it, we learned that you physically destroyed the phones and used software to wipe out the computers.

BUCK: We’re speaking to Senator Marco Rubio of Florida. Senator, you have an opponent in this upcoming election, Val Demings. We have people listening all across your home state. We’ve got stations in, what, Orlando, Miami — anyway, all over the state. I go down the list we’d be here all day. Point is we’ve got Democrats who listen to this show, we’ve got a lot of independents to listen to this show. What should they know about the difference between you and your opponent of attorney, Democrat Val Demings?

SEN. RUBIO: Well, I think there’s two major differences. I think the first is, I actually get things done. She’s been in Congress for six years. She calls her Chief Demings ’cause she wants people to know that it’s been 12 years since been a police chief. She’s been in Congress for six years after — and she’s run for multiple offices. She spent a decade trying to get into politics. So, she’s been in Congress six years. She’s done nothing.

She’s never passed a bill. She has no signature or major achievement of any — she has no achievement of any kind — there’s nothing to show for six years in Congress. What she’s been is a rubber stamp. She votes with Nancy Pelosi a hundred percent of the time. Not even The Squad does that, okay? And she’s been a rubber stamp for Pelosi and this radical agenda. I ask people to compare that to my record.

Our new ad

I get things done,including:

=Taking on slum lords

=PPP that helped save small business

=Benefits for veterans suffering the effects of toxic burn pits

When will the media ask Pelosi puppet Val Demings to name just one achievement in her 6 years in D.C.? pic.twitter.com/tYYQP7sseg

— Marco Rubio (@marcorubio) August 25, 2022

I’ve got more meaningful things done in the last six years that anyone in the Senate. I don’t say that — the Vanderbilt University of Virginia center for effective law making says that. YouGov says that. They’ve ranked me the most effective member of the U.S. Senate. I got the PPP program that saved millions of small businesses and jobs across this country, not one, but two VA accountability acts, changes in laws towards Hong Kong after China took it over, the law that bans the import of products made by slave labor, the increase from the Xinjiang region of China.

You know, it’s why I’m sanctioned by the Chinese government. I mean, the list goes on and on. It’s a very long list. I mean, I’ve gotten real things done. Things built on common sense. And, by the way, bipartisan things. Because you can’t pass anything in the Senate that isn’t bipartisan. So, that’s the first thing. I think the second thing that’s really important to point out and is our differences is — and it ties to the first — is that you look at the agenda, she is gonna do whatever Chuck Schumer tells her.

It almost is irrelevant what her personal views are on these issues. As we’ve learned very recently, when the Democrats crack the whip on their members, they all fall in line and vote for whatever they ask for irrespective of their personal views. So, if people want Chuck Schumer to be their next U.S. senator, then Val Demings is gonna do that for you. I’m not. Look. I’ve voted against my own leadership many times when I felt it was not in the best interests of the country or the United States.

She has never done it, and she’s not gonna do it in the Senate. But I need people’s help. ‘Cause she’s raising a ton of cash. You Know, This Act Blue, all these liberal groups around the country, they’re flooding her campaign with money. So, if people can give, I ask them to go on my website, MarcoRubio.com, ’cause I can’t get outspent three to one here. We’ve gotta get the word out about this stuff.

CLAY: Senator Rubio, I know you are a monster Dolphins fan. You’ve been talking about a lot of serious subjects here. How are the Dolphins going to do? You’ve got Jaylen Waddle paired now with Tyreek Hill, that is an incredible combo. What are the Dolphins gonna do this year?

SEN. RUBIO: Well, let me tell you what I did this year. I have no expectations, that way my hopes cannot be dashed. Now, my eyes can see, you know, you probably have the fastest receiving corps maybe in the history of the NFL with Waddle and Tyreek Hill who, by the way, is not just fast, he’s a great player.

CLAY: Yep.

SEN. RUBIO: And Waddle has the opportunity to be the same and then you’ve got probably the fastest running back in the league in Mostert. So, it’s a much faster team. They have a unique design. You know, and I think it’s a system that’s perfectly tailored for what Shula did very well, remember, when he was in Alabama. He was an RPO quarterback that — I mean, he can throw the ball deep. All that stuff about him not throwing the ball deep is silly.

But where he really excels, where he’s elite at is his accuracy, ’cause he puts the ball in the place where the guys who can catch and run can catch and run. So, all that feels really good, and they bring back the same defense as last year. But these guys in the NFL, I mean, if the worst team in the NFL played the best team in the NFL 10 times, the worst team would win at least three of those games, maybe four, but at least three. That’s how closely matched this stuff is. So, you know, sometimes you just don’t get your hopes up. But look, I’m excited about it. I’m waiting to see what happens —

BUCK: Senator Rubio, I also have an important question to ask you about a close matchup. Clay and I are locked in a feud here because, you know, they’re remaking — or they’re doing a Beverly Hills Cop sequel, adding to the Beverly Hills Cop franchise. The better Eddie Murphy movie, Senator, is Coming to America or Beverly Hills Cop 1?

SEN. RUBIO: I like both the Beverly Hills Cop, the second one came out in the nineties, but I like them both. I actually think Eddie Murphy has not been given the credit he deserves for his role in the Shrek movies, which unfortunately I had to watch ’cause my kids were growing up —

CLAY: He is really good as Donkey.

BUCK: Did you see that pivot? That is a world class pivot from the senator, by the way.

CLAY: Did you just go off the board and go with Eddie Murphy in Shrek movies as his best performance?

SEN. RUBIO: Let me tell you something. That’s even harder. ‘Cause the voice now has to do anything. You’re not in charge of the animation; so the voice has to really carry the day. And so, for him, I mean, it’s phenomenal. And, by the way, let me just mention this. His late brother, Charlie Murphy…that guy was incredible, the guy who used to be on the original Chappelle shows. He was a really funny guy. Unfortunately, he died, you know, very young —

CLAY: What’s your favorite Chappelle show skit? Do you have one? The Charlie Murphy one I’m thinking of that is so good is the prince playing basketball, where — I mean that is one of the funniest —

SEN. RUBIO: 9 Rick James one, remember the Rick James one?

CLAY: Oh, yeah.

BUCK: Yeah.

SEN. RUBIO: You know, gosh, there’s so many. You gotta be so careful about them because none of them are politically correct, you know what I mean? And that’s what makes Chappelle so unique.

BUCK: Oh, of course.

SEN. RUBIO: But, I mean, there is a bunch of them. I’ve always chuckled that — remember Black Bush, which is the one right after — during the Gulf War period? And I think, if I’m not mistaken, who was Tony Blair, somebody played the role of Tony Blair in that skit? Jamie Foxx. That’s who it was.

BUCK: You’re not weighing in on Coming to America versus Beverly Hills Cop, senator. Is that where we are —

SEN. RUBIO: Listen, no, I think Beverly Hills Cop, both of them.

BUCK: Yes.

SEN. RUBIO: Not that Coming to America was bad, but I like both of them.

BUCK: Victory for Sexton.

CLAY: I think you’re wrong on this one.

BUCK: Strong interview before but now it’s been a fantastic interview. Senator Marco Rubio of the great state of Florida, sir, we always appreciate you making the time, and good luck to you, and we look forward to you doing more great things in the Senate next year.

SEN. RUBIO: Yeah. Thank you, guys. Thanks for having me on.

BUCK: Anytime.

U.S. Seizes Oil Tanker Off Venezuela -- Is Regime Change Next?

How far will President Trump go militarily?

It’s the (Hopefully) Next Governor of Arizona, Kari Lake!

31 Aug 2022

BUCK: Kari Lake is running for governor of Arizona. She’s joined us now to talk about what’s going on in her state and in the run-ups to these very important midterm elections, what the primary issues of concern are. Kari, great to talk to you again.

LAKE: It’s great to be on. How are you?

BUCK: I’m good. You know, Clay and I have been a little… trying to raise attention here and maybe ring the alarm bell a little bit in some races where we just think there needs to be more focus on the issues and less tactics of distraction from the Democrat media seeping into people’s decision-making.

Immigration is something that we talk about and specifically illegal immigration is something we talk about a lot on this show because, Kari, I mean, you’re in a border state, a major one, Arizona. You’re running for governor there. The border’s the worst that it’s ever been, and I think the American people are starting to figure that out in a way that could have a real impact in just a couple months.

LAKE: Oh, totally. I mean, it’s been really the number-one issue all along in our campaign. We’ve spoken to tens of thousands of voters, residents of Arizona, and they’re concerned about it because it’s not just, you know, the nearly five million people, or just over four million I should say that have come in illegally since Joe Biden took office. It’s the tons of fentanyl and other deadly, dangerous drugs coming in.

I have been consistent on the border crisis from Day One.

Arizona is being invaded.

And what do you do when your home is under attack?

You Defend It.https://t.co/BKMkFgiIQc pic.twitter.com/mp6bLHWXog

— Kari Lake (@KariLake) August 30, 2022

And that’s what people are really tired of. We are the pipeline right now for poisonous fentanyl, which is the number one killer of our young people in this country. I just was talking to a sheriff yesterday who told me since January, 33 kids have died in Arizona of fentanyl overdose poisoning, and seven of those children had been under the age of one.

We have to secure or border. We have to take back control from the cartels. Joe Biden took what was the most secure border we’ve ever had in Arizona, turned it into a complete joke where the narco-terrorists are in control. And my opponent, Hobbs, doesn’t have a plan for that border. She doesn’t even think there’s a problem.

CLAY: Kari, you’re getting ripped and attacked like crazy. What I love about you is you are super poised. Like, it doesn’t seem like any of this — these attacks really land on you. Do you attribute that to being — I’m just genuinely curious. Do you attribute that to being in television where there’s constantly like — people don’t know how live television works.

Like, there’s always kind of chaos around you, and you have to stay super calm even, you know, as you’re addressing your audience. What do you attribute that to? Because I think it’s very character of your campaign so far. You’ve been kind of in the midst of a maelstrom, of a frenzy, and you just stay super calm and just keep going forward.

LAKE: I never thought of that. I mean, maybe being in, you know, in journalism for 30 years, much of that time on live television where you have to keep things, you know, moving. You can’t be distracted by what’s happening around you. So, I think I do have that ability to focus. I’ve always been a focused kid. If I put my mind to something when I was young, I would accomplish it. I’m determined.

And so, I think that helps. But also, I have the truth on my side. And so, when I’m being attacked in these ads, I just look at these ads and go, it’s so ridiculous what they’re saying about me. I’ve been in the homes of Arizonans for 27 years. They know who I am, and I just don’t believe they’re gonna buy these lies. And turns out they didn’t.

BREAKING: One of the most massive single groups we have ever witnessed cross illegally at the border is crossing into Eagle Pass, TX right now. The line of people went so far into the trees it’s hard to get a count. Hundreds upon hundreds. Coyotes guiding them in water. @FoxNews pic.twitter.com/ZjZIygarAv

— Bill Melugin (@BillFOXLA) July 13, 2022

And so, Katie Hobbs is trying to hide in her basement right now and use a bunch of dirty, dark money to run attack ads on me. And I just don’t think they’re landing because the people of Arizona know me, they know I’m serious about solving our problems. I’ve laid out my policy, and every chance I get I talk about my policy. Because the policy and the plans I have for Arizona will solve these problems that we’ve been dealing with for a long time, and they’ll be good for all Arizonans, whether they’re Democrat, independent, or Republican.

I mean, everybody wants to take back control from the border, from the cartel and stop the drugs from coming across, stop people from being trafficked. Everybody wants to have a healthy economy where we can actually afford our gas and our groceries. Everybody wants to have a school where our kids are actually learning things that will help them in life, not getting a brainwashing. So, I think when it comes down to it, we just have the better policies. I know I’m standing in the truth. So, I’m not caught off guard, and I’m not letting it distract me from what we need to do here.

BUCK: We’re talking to Kari Lake. She is the Republican nominee for the governor’s mansion in Arizona. And, Kari, what does your opponent think about all the illegal immigration that’s happening in general but more specifically how it affects your state, the rise in fentanyl overdoses, the rise in usage of public services, the expense of all this. What does she say? Does she ever get asked about this or does the media just constantly running cover?

LAKE: It’s kind of comical because one of her own supporters — and we just got this on tape the other day, on video — one of her supporters who goes door knocking for her said, hey, will you help me out? I get asked about the border, what your plans are be, and I really don’t know how to answer it. And it was really humorous because she didn’t know how to answer it. And I realized at that moment, oh, my gosh. She doesn’t have a plan for the border.

When she says we’re gonna leave it in Joe Biden’s hand, that really is her plan. She doesn’t think we have a problem. She doesn’t realize or she wants to ignore the problem. We have an invasion on our border, and she doesn’t have a plan for it. And even the Democrat voters out there are obviously asking about it when her door knockers go to their door. And so, I want them to know we have a plan.

We’re gonna secure the border starting on day one, we’re gonna call it what it is. It’s an invasion…biggest invasion our country has ever seen on home soil since the founding of the United States of America. And we’re gonna stop it here in Arizona.

And Governor DeSantis has already said he would help out, he’ll send National Guard troops from Florida. I know we can get cooperation from other like-minded governors to send resources here because if we don’t protect the border, it affects every other state. And the other states are getting sick of it as well.

CLAY: Kari, a lot of talk about what the movement to different states has meant post-covid. Arizona, obviously, has seen a lot of people move into its state since the covid madness has started, many of those people from California. As you’re going around the state, do you think many of those people moved who are Republicans, Democrats? How will population shift, in your mind, impact this upcoming election?

LAKE: You know, I believe we’re a red state. We’re a conservative state. We still have that wild west kind of streak in all of us. We want our freedom. And that’s why covid was such an eye-opener for people because we watched as our freedoms were taken away. And Arizonans don’t take kindly to that. And other people from California, Washington, Illinois, New Jersey — I mean, I see people all the time on the campaign trail who say, we moved here because Arizona was more free than the state that we left.

So, many of the Californians that are coming here — I’m gonna honest — I see a lot of conservatives. They’re coming to our events saying, we don’t want to see Arizona go blue because we just left a blue state, a Democrat-run state where we had no power, they hurt our businesses, they hurt our children’s education, they locked us down, and we do not want to see Arizona go that direction.

And some of my most ardent supporters are transplants from these blue states who packed up, sold their businesses, sold everything, and moved to Arizona for freedom. And they don’t want to see that freedom being taken away by someone like Hobbs.

BUCK: What’s the top of the agenda, Kari, if and when you become the next governor of Arizona, which we certainly hope is gonna be the case?

LAKE: Number one, border. We’ve gotta secure that border. We have to stop the drugs from pouring in. We have a drug addiction epidemic, and we’re seeing it on our streets. I’ve got a plan to end chronic street homelessness and finally restore quality of life to the hardworking taxpayers who want their parks back, they want their streets back. We’re gonna help people who are struggling, get them back on their feet, and we’re not gonna allow people to just live that drug addled life on the streets. It’s not compassionate.

We want to also bring about dual track education for our children so that after tenth grade they can decide in Arizona if they want to do the four-year college degree, that’s great. If they want to get skills training, vocational training, and career certification right there in high school so they can leave high school ready for the good jobs that are out there in Arizona. We want to prepare our kids.

And we want to restore medical freedom and privacy. We’ve lost so much of that during covid. I will never require our children to put masks on ever again. It hurt their health. It hurt their learning. And I will fight back any business who tries to force an experimental shot on their employees who simply want to make a living and put food on the table. We’re just gonna restore some sanity and common sense in Arizona and give people their freedom back.

CLAY: Kari Lake the next governor of Arizona, we believe will be her. We appreciate the time. We’ll talk to you again soon. Good luck on the campaign trail.

LAKE: Thanks, guys. Bye-bye.

Join Clay & Buck at the Movies

31 Aug 2022

Clay and Buck love to take you to the movies, maybe even share a little popcorn and Milk Duds.

They are making a new Beverly Hills cop movie and @BuckSexton & I are debating the best Eddie Murphy movie from the 1980’s — excluding his comedy specials — who ya got? https://t.co/zsqbfAOKWR

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) August 31, 2022

Beverly Hills Cop is a Sexton family favorite with Eddie Murphy in the title role of Axel Foley which he’s set to resume in a reboot.

That film is right up there with its fellow ‘80s classic Ghostbusters.

Incredibly, Buck’s wonderful and lovely fiancee Carrie had never seen an all-time classic, The Hunt for Red October, a situation he remedied swiftly. Its star, Alec Baldwin, has been having a rough time lately on a lot of fronts, and rightfully so.

But that’s a very good movie, based on a great book by Tom Clancy, whose research skills were so good that the Pentagon ended up sitting down with him and saying, “Hey, where you getting all this classified stuff?”

Rounding out today’s picks from that great decade of action films is Predator with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Beverly Hills Cop II was good as well.

However, warning: Your childhood was ruined, basically, by Beverly Hills Cop III. The studio would have been better off burning all the footage like they did with the recent Batgirl movie.

There was also Eddie Murphy’s Coming to America, which was great.

And then recently, Netflix delivered the long hoped-for sequel.

They really knew how to make films back in the Reagan years, and those plots still hold up today. Look at the enormous success of Top Gun: Maverick.

It’s a reminder to people, along with the Cobra Kai show which continues The Karate Kid saga, that if you do a remake that tries to be faithful to the spirit and storyline at some level of the original, it can be a massive success.

Trading Places rounds out Buck’s top-three Eddie Murphy vehicles.

Clay ranked them in this order: Coming to America, Beverly Hills Cop, Trading Places, which caused a feud.

Also, there was the Eddie Murphy-Nick Nolte buddy film 48 Hours, which many of you are upset with both hosts for leaving out of the Top 3.

Meanwhile, Senator Marco Rubio, in his call to the show, said, “I actually think Eddie Murphy has not been given the credit he deserves for his role in the Shrek movies,” in the role of Donkey.

Libs Line Up for Their 5th Booster

31 Aug 2022

CLAY: The fifth booster has now been signed off on. So, all of you out there who are getting ready for fall, you didn’t get taken care of by the first four covid shots. But I gotta tell you, I’m feeling good about the fifth one. Gives you a full handful here. I’m feeling good. This is obviously a joke. I feel like Joe Biden now.

BUCK: “Not a joke! Not a joke! Not a joke!”

CLAY: Actually not a joke. This is from our friend Dr. Marty Makary:

FDA will likely authorize the Omicron vaccine later today/tomorrow based on data from 8 mice and no human clinical data avail to the public. Americans deserve to see the data. Why is the White House/Dr. Jha pushing it so hard & universally w/o public data? https://t.co/mfgyJnHOiv

— Marty Makary MD, MPH (@MartyMakary) August 31, 2022

That seems like a very valid question, particularly because the first four haven’t worked that well. Do you want to rush out and get a fifth shot that’s only been tested on eight mice? That doesn’t seem like a very good idea.

BUCK: The question that I have, if I could get access to (impression) “Albert Bourla, the head of Pfizer, and —

CLAY: (laughing) He’s also Count Dracula, evidently.

BUCK: He sometimes wears a cape and avoids sunlight. No. But if I could get access to one of these execs or any of these people who are involved in this process, I’d want to ask them, “So, there’s definitely gonna be a sixth one, right?” Like, can we just be clear on that?

CLAY: Good point. No, it’s not going away.

BUCK: This is number five. Is there any reason to believe that shot number five — without even human trials, which they’re admitting. There’s no human trials. Just think, “Oh, it’s so close to other shots that it’s fine.” Is there any reason to believe that shot number six is not going to be unveiled by, oh, January? I just think we should know that in advance.

‘Cause I think that tells people something before they get this shot, that this is a temporary protective measure at best for those at high risk, ’cause there are going to be N95, double-masked psychos walking around going, “What do you mean you haven’t gotten the shot? You’re not allowed to come have dinner at my house. You’re a threat. You’re a danger.” There are millions of people still out there like that!

CLAY: Yeah.

BUCK: It’s a shame, but it’s true.

CLAY: Yeah. It really is. I mean, the New York Times was like, “Hey, very liberal people,” in their morning email update that they sent out — 30% of very liberal voters are still terrified of covid! Like, 30% of them. I mean, we’re 2-1/2 years in, and they were like, “This is a big move ’cause it’s gone from 43 who are very afraid of covid to 30%.” But, Buck, the number one way to know whether somebody’s really afraid of covid is how liberal they are.

It’s amazing that this has ended up being the way that the worlds goes. I wonder on some level — and I think this is a big psychological question for people to debate — why are very liberal people so terrified of covid? Are they more fearful of everything? I’d like to see the data. I don’t know the answer. But it is kind of wild to think about, that we’ve gotten here to where this type of insanity still exists.

Sickly Trust Fund Fetterman Hides from Voters

31 Aug 2022

In 2020, the Democratic presidential candidate used covid as an excuse to hide in his basement, concealing his infirmity and lack of mental faculties from the public.

It worked for Joe Biden nationwide, so John Fetterman has decided to try it for his Senate campaign in Pennsylvania against Dr. Oz. What’s going on in Pennsylvania should legitimately scare people as to what Democrats are trying to make happen.

Fetterman’s whole big, baggy sweatshirt costume — when he lived off his parents riches until his fifties — shouldn’t replace voters’ right to see him doing candidate stuff like engaging in debates and speaking to them.

Between Biden and Fetterman, there certainly seems to be a habit now of Democrats putting forward candidates where the assumption is they may not be physically or mentally up for doing the job in any responsible way.

The U.K. Guardian sees that this is a bad look for Fetterman, so they ran a story headlined, “Oz Campaign Again Mocks Fetterman’s Health in Pennsylvania Senate Race.” So you can’t even question why your opponent won’t leave their basement or talk to anyone according to the left.

Being a stroke victim aside, just look at Fetterman’s politics. Do people in Pennsylvania really want a U.S. senator who says he agrees with the leftist, socialist policy of the Venezuela-loving Bernie Sanders? Is that what they want their future to be?

Ah, but their media always will just carry the water for them, and they can hide in the basement, avoid exposing themselves to any ideological opposition, questions, et cetera.

It is unbelievable that Pennsylvanians are even considering this guy for the Senate.

Hochul Solves Crime! Declares Times Square Gun-Free Zone!

31 Aug 2022

Well, that was easy! Why did nobody think of this before, America? New York’s unelected governor, Democrat Kathy Hochul, just solved the record crime at the Crossroads of the World by declaring Times Square — henceforth and forever — a gun-free zone!

Now, some of you are gonna say, “Hold on! This is dumb,” and you’re right. Here’s Hochul in her own words:

“What else did the Supreme Court do to jeopardize safety in our streets, which is the only way you can — the only conclusion you can draw from what they did? They said that those who have concealed carry permits can pretty much take them anywhere they want! In response, we had to come up with a list of sensitive locations where guns are prohibited. These sensitive locations will include schools, colleges, day cares, libraries, restaurants that serve alcohol — other places — parks, places people visit, work, and also we added Times Square!”

Oh, okay! Surely the bad guys are gonna see the “No Guns Allowed” sign and say, “Whoa! Kathy Hochul is scary. I don’t want to mess her.” It’s the dumbest policy you’re gonna hear about today.

Did You see the DOJ Staged a Photo at Mar-a-Lago?

31 Aug 2022

BUCK: Look right now at the polling that shows this is an Emerson — I’m sorry — a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

CLAY: Right.

BUCK: Yeah, by Emerson. Okay. Whatever. Donald Trump —

CLAY: Reuters/Ipsos came out today.

BUCK: Donald Trump is up in Ohio in a theoretical matchup against Joe Biden 14 points, 53-39. In Pennsylvania, theoretical matchup, Donald Trump 47-42 against Joe Biden, up five points. In Georgia, Donald Trump, 51-46 for Joe Biden, up five points. This poll was just completed. So, someone’s gonna have to explain to the Democrat side, hold on a second, if “Trump is a threat to our democracy” and all this other stuff, why is it that his numbers are looking so good right now against the sitting president who has the power of the incumbency and everything else?

And I think this is an important contextual point, Clay, for why the DOJ released last night this staged photo. For those who might have missed this, Trump was a special master. And we will update you on this story, we will handle the story. We will not obsess over the Mar-a-Lago documents because Clay and I both see this as increasingly intentional distraction by Democrats to try to “make this about Trump and the documents” and not about the economy, the border, crime, areas where the Democrats are so very vulnerable.

You might have seen this. There’s a photo out now. It was put out in the DOJ filing and one of the addenda. Is that the plural of addendum? Addenda, right? Is that right? It’s not addendi.

CLAY: That sounds like a CIA word —

BUCK: Yeah.

CLAY: — sitting around talk about addendums and addendas a lot.

BUCK: That’s pretty much all we did in the CIA was talking about addenda and Precis and, you know, summaries and things like that. Anyway, you’ve got all these documents, secret SEI, secret SEI splayed across the floor to show how serious this is. There’s also in the boxes like TIME magazine covers and other things that you can see.

But they’re including this as an exhibit. I mean, Clay, for one thing, this is very clear. The FBI went in there and they staged a photo. I mean, they actually laid out classified — their cover sheets; so everyone understands, these go on top of the classified material so you can’t see the classified material. This is a handling procedure for classified information. And so, they have all these classified cover sheets out.

It’s like when they raid a drug — a drug lord’s den and they take, you know, the — remember in the nineties? I feel was all MAC-10s, everybody had MAC-10s in the drug trade and TEC-9. That was the other. They had all these guns and drugs on the table. In this case, it is cover sheets and we’re supposed to look at this and say, “Oh, my gosh. It’s so reckless.”

We still don’t know what’s in there. We still don’t know how they’d adjudicate the then president’s ability to declassify these documents as he saw fit. And I just think that they want to obsess on this. Yet another, the walls are closing in on Trump story, because the Biden bounce, the rebound, it’s already fading very rapidly.

CLAY: Dead cat bounce. Sorry, for all the cat people out there. So, this staged photo is pretty indefensible because we know they spent over nine hours at Mar-a-Lago, and what they’re clearly intending to show is, look how reckless Donald Trump was. There are all these classified documents strewn about on the floor. In the New York Times story that the Department of Justice leaked to be able to continue to put these stories out there there’s an interesting line where it said no sort of charges are imminent.

I don’t think there’s going to be charges in this case. I think it is almost entirely a Trumped-up distraction, and I think Republicans need to stop obsessing over every little detail here. Leave it alone. And if you are a big Trump person, I would encourage you to come out and vote, send a message about what you think about the FBI raid. But it’s not going to be the determining factor in any Senate battle. And so, I think this increasingly is a massive distraction.

And, Buck, what I would say — I might have misspoke there — you were giving off, I think, a bunch of those Emerson poll state by state results. Today a Reuters/Ipsos poll came out showing that Joe Biden has hit a new low, I believe, in their poll at 38% approval. And if it’s not a new low, it’s close to his new low, and it’s down substantially from the last two weeks or so.

And I think what’s happening is, I think Biden has stepped all over himself with the student loan debt move. I think that that is overwhelmingly, for people whose votes are up for grabs, not registering well for him. Certainly, a lot of Democrats have ripped him for that as well. I think every time Biden speaks it helps Republicans. I don’t think what they think. They put him on the road and he calls anybody who voted for Donald Trump basically a Nazi.

Yesterday he’s talks and he says that police got killed on January 6th, and if you want to stand up to the government you better get an F-15 ’cause your guns are not gonna be enough. All of these things play into exactly what Republicans are talking about. If anything, Biden’s approval, Buck, went up when he was on vacation for basically a month and when he got covid and nothing was being said by him, basically.

And look. To be fair, gas prices have come back from 5 to 3.75 or whatever they are on an average all over the country. I think they’re 3.75 by my house. And I believe as you break this down, the more Biden gets on the road, the worse it is for Democrats because he doesn’t have a good sales pitch and his incompetence shines through.

BUCK: If he didn’t have the excuse of covid for the Biden-in-the-basement presidential run, I don’t think he would have been able to pull it off because so many people would have seen that he is decrepit. I mean, he’s not in a physical, mental state to be leading the most powerful, wealthy country on earth. It’s a crazy idea that this would be the guy, unless all you’re relying on are the constant stories about how, you know, “Trump is worse than Hitler” and the media gets to run with this.

And what was the narrative about Joe Biden? This is what’s so frustrating. Democrats win elections — and put aside the cheating and all that stuff for a second. Every time I say this, people, but don’t you — yeah, I’m like, yeah, guys, what do you want me to do? Like, I know they cheat but there’s only so much I can talk about the cheating. Democrats win elections, though, by lying to people about who they are and what they really believe.

And this is something that everybody has to remember. The Democrat Party is the anti-cop party. They’re the Soros prosecutor party. They are the lockdowns because teachers’ unions to want have their employees stay at home while your kids are suffering party. They’re the tell social media to ban people that disagree with the narrative party. I mean, these are all just the realities of what we’re facing these days.

And now that we’re going into election time, what do we have? Oh, we got Joe out there, you know, on the trail, rolled up sleeves, aviators, “Hey, man, I’m just here eating apple pie. I’m just like you. You know, yeah, Hunter got paid millions by China to do nothing. That’s not influencing peddling, man. I’m just — no joke. I’m just out here making jobs for people.” I mean, it’s appalling. Who votes for this buffoon? Even Democrats know that this is ridiculous.

CLAY: Democrats didn’t vote for him; they voted against Trump. And that’s why I think Republicans — Trump is going to get his opportunity. In the 2024 race, if you are a die-hard Trump person, go balls-to-the-wall as hard as you can to get him elected if he wins the Republican nomination. We’ve had Trump on this show a lot. We think he was a good president. We voted for him.

But this election’s not about Trump. And Democrats are desperate to try to make it about Trump. That’s why they raided Mar-a-Lago, I really believe, was to put Trump front and center on the midterms. Look. The midterms are not a referendum on Donald Trump. He hasn’t been in office for two years. The midterms are a hundred percent a referendum on what Joe Biden has done as president.

Do not allow the midterms — everybody out there listening to us right now, you can defend Trump and say you don’t think the FBI should have done the raid. But this — a midterm cannot be a referendum on what might or might not be going on at Mar-a-Lago. It’s gotta be a referendum on the border, on crime in the country, on the fact that we’re dealing with 40-year-high inflation.

On the fact that your family, every time you go out to the grocery store or to pay for gas, is getting a default massive tax increase because of Joe Biden’s failed economic policies, not to mention what’s going on in Ukraine, our disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Everything that Joe Biden has touched as president is worse than it was before he got there.

BUCK: Joe Biden, in what was flagrantly unconstitutional as well — let’s remember that. The Supreme Court did have to say, you can’t do that.

CLAY: Yep.

BUCK: Joe Biden, in a flagrantly unconstitutional move, after terrifying people about their relatives who didn’t want to get the shot, he wanted millions and millions of people across the country to be humiliated and fired from their jobs for refusal to get a covid vaccine that they did not need and that didn’t do a damn thing to stop the spread. I don’t know what else to say other than if anyone supports that party that Joe Biden represents, just knowing that, they’re hurting the country at this point. They really are.

I mean, you have to hold people accountable. That was the most egregious, authoritarian act in my lifetime of any president. And does anyone care? People are sitting around and saying, “Oh, but, you know, I mean…” I know this audience cares but, you know, do the independents out there who are thinking about voting for Democrats care?

Do the Democrats listening to this who think, you know, maybe it’s gotten a little too crazy, do they care? I mean, honestly, people need to get fired up. And one thing I’ll say about Biden, no matter how stupid, no matter how dishonest, no matter how ridiculous, he’s going on offense, Clay.

CLAY: Yes.

BUCK: Our team could take a lesson or two from that one. Go on offense. Make the case. Make your Democrat opponents, wherever you are across the country, explain why, you know, transgender surgery for 14-year-olds without parental consent is a great idea. But make them defend these points. Make them actually have these conversations in public.

Scranton Joe? More Like a Pyromaniac in a Field of Straw Dogs

31 Aug 2022

BUCK: I had the misfortune… It is my job, Clay, so I’ll take one for the team. I just will do it. I had the misfortune of watching the Joe Biden speech yesterday.

CLAY: You watched the whole thing?

BUCK: I watched the whole thing.

CLAY: How long did he talk?

BUCK: Well, I mean was like 30, 40 minutes, I think.

CLAY: You watched it on tape delay, which is even worse.

BUCK: Oh, no, I watched it on YouTube. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I watched it. But I watched the whole thing.

CLAY: Good for you.

BUCK: And wow. I was hoping that it wouldn’t be quite as brutal in terms of dishonesty. First of all, somebody has to tell Joe Biden, he’s not allowed to make a joke and then immediately go, “Not a joke” because that’s really weird, you know?

CLAY: Yeah.

BUCK: You can’t be like, knock, knock. Who’s there? Have your answer and then say “not a joke” or “not hyperbole.” It is actually a joke, you idiot. So, start with that. There were so many things. The gaslighting was thermonuclear level. I mean, the gaslighting was like the scene in Game of Thrones where they light the whole ocean on fire with the wildfire or something. They were gaslighting everywhere over the issue of crime and defund the police. “Oh, now we’re gonna play this game where Joe Biden’s Mr. Law enforcement.”

Why? Because people are gonna vote soon and they realize that being bludgeoned in front of their homes in cities where they’ve, many cases, paid far too much money to be there, it’s something people don’t like. And talking about social justice and the racist system of police doesn’t actually change voters’ minds when it comes to “I just want safe streets.”

But the real moment here — I don’t know if there’s a dumber argument that is made, Clay, about the Second Amendment than the, “Ooh. What are you gonna do with just your stupid rifles?” It’s a very stupid argument. Joe Biden is not a smart man, and he decided to make that argument.

Joe Biden:

“For those brave right-wing Americans who say it’s all about keeping Americans independent and safe, if you want to fight against a country you need an F-15. You need something a little more than a gun.” pic.twitter.com/xnkF0Grpnh

— TheBlaze (@theblaze) August 30, 2022

BUCK: First — Clay, he has neither read nor understood the Constitution or the history of his own presidency, apparently. See Afghanistan.

CLAY: Not only Afghanistan, what was the first thing they did in Ukraine when Russia invaded? Before they got all of the material, billions of dollars being spent by us, they passed out guns. They passed out guns to anybody who would take them all over the country of Ukraine and forbade men from leaving the country and told them, hey, take this gun and go defend your country. Am I wrong or have we still not given any fighter jets to Ukraine? Ukraine is fighting against Russia without, to my knowledge, Buck, a single outside —

BUCK: Guns, artillery pieces, shoulder-fired missiles. But we have not given them, formally, at least, fighter planes.

CLAY: I don’t think they’ve even gotten in. So, this whole argument, plus the flip side to this is, if you’re gonna fight against the government, I will rain down bombs on you with my F-15s, that is exactly why people want guns, right? And so, this whole argument — Biden ran, Buck, as a uniter, a guy who was gonna restore normalcy to the White House.

And every time he opens his mouth, he creates more division. And I don’t know whether he himself is even cognitively aware enough of what the larger world was. I mean, I saw the clip. I haven’t even checked to make sure that we have it but at some point we should play it where he tried to allege that there were a bunch of police that were killed on January 6th in his sort of harebrained analogy associated with January 6th. He said, imagine if you saw a Parliament stormed or something like that — I think we have the audio.

BUCK: Play, yeah.

“Let me say this to my MAGA Republican friends in Congress: Don’t tell me you support law enforcement if you won’t condemn what happened on the 6th,” Pres. Biden says during a speech in Pennsylvania.

“For God’s sake, whose side are you on?” he adds. pic.twitter.com/2RqUWoTvS5

— CBS News (@CBSNews) August 30, 2022

CLAY: No one says any of that, first of all. Certainly, no one on this show. We’ve said from the moment, Buck, both you and I have, nobody should riot. I understand everybody has strong political opinions. I don’t care what your political opinions are. No one should riot. No one should trespass. No one should break the law. You and I have been saying this about BLM for a long time. But, Buck, you were in, I know Afghanistan —

BUCK: Iraq and Afghanistan, both.

CLAY: Iraq and Afghanistan. Is there any possible way that anyone could say January 6th was worse than anything that they saw in Iraq?

BUCK: I mean, I remember seeing guys from a Special Forces team who had just taken down an HBT and they were brought back to military base ’cause they had to get emergency surgery because of all the ball bearings they were hit with from a suicide vest. A lot worse than the people saying selfies, I gotta tell you.

CLAY: I can’t even conceive how somebody could make that analogy unless they worked in a mess hall or something in Iraq and never left the base. I mean, that is an outlandish and absurd analogy that it was even said.

BUCK: The Churchill phrase was that he was a pyromaniac in a field of straw men. That was Joe Biden in this speech yesterday, in Pennsylvania, by the way, which we all know, people in Pennsylvania, what are they really caring about? We’ve looked at the polling, right? We looked at where the issues are, Pennsylvania and nationally. The economy, inflation, election integrity issues, which was interesting in a recent poll that Clay and I were sharing back and forth.

Gun violence, which we will talk about in one second here. Immigration didn’t make it. I’m trying to remember, what was the fifth one again? The fifth one was a surprise to me. But, anyway, that’s what they care about. And I think the immigration issue is going to surge more and more. I think also the media doesn’t talk about it very much because it is such a gaping hole in the Biden narrative.

What are they gonna do everybody? We have an open border and we want amnesty? That’s what they want, but they don’t want people to know that. Clay, Biden is supposed to be a uniter. All he does is lie about his opponents and harangue them. Who is going around saying that January 6th, that the riot on January 6th was fine? Nobody says it was fine on the right. I mean, nobody of any standing or having any support.

Shades of Corn Pop in Latest Bizarre Biden Blathering

31 Aug 2022

CLAY: Sorry. I’m laughing ’cause Buck and I are talking about Joe Biden and Corn Pop during the commercial break, which, Buck, might be the weirdest thing that any president in our lives has ever told a story about.

BUCK: “And I had the blond hair on the legs and then I wrapped a chain around my hand, man, and I was like hey, hey, I got a chain on my hand, you want to fight?” Remember the whole thing? It was crazy. It was crazy.

CLAY: It really is a crazy man story. I said, I really do mean this…the best weapon that Republicans have is Biden speaking. Every time Biden goes out and speaks, people kind of go, you know, like even if you’re a Democrat, you’re like, “Man, this dude is not well.” And he’s also just weird. Listen to Biden. Let’s first play, this is yesterday. Buck watched the whole thing, God bless him. This is Biden —

BUCK: Not all heroes wear capes, Clay.

CLAY: Yeah, this is Biden. He didn’t mention Corn Pop, but he did talk again about being a white guy in a black neighborhood in Delaware, which is a kind of consistent talking point here from Biden. Listen.

Joe Biden tells bizarre story:

"There's a place where I was the only white guy that worked as a lifeguard down in that area, on the East side. And you know, you could always tell where the best basketball in the state is." pic.twitter.com/xDWi7nE4KD

— TheBlaze (@theblaze) August 30, 2022

CLAY: Okay. So, Joe Biden went to the black neighborhoods and they’re really good at playing the basketball in the black neighborhoods. I mean, this dude is always saying racially uncomfortable things. Remember his first presidential campaign when Biden won exploded because he said Obama was “the first mainstream media,” like, “clean, articulate black guy.”

And it was so incredibly awkward that basically he was like, yeah, I can’t run for president anymore, and then Obama rescued him from oblivion by making him his vice president, and that’s now why he’s president. And we got another ridiculous clip. What is this other one, Buck, where he talks about…what is the latest one? Another one. Whatever you guys just added. I got —

BUCK: We’ve got him talking about how the bullet from an AR-15 —

CLAY: Yes, that’s what it is.

BUCK: — goes five times as fast as all — it’s like a super bullet. Listen.

CLAY: All right. As a gun guy, Buck, how would you analyze Joe Biden’s discussion there?

BUCK: Completely nuts. Completely nuts. I’m like an advanced beginner in the world of firearms, and I can tell you that this is just… First of all, he doesn’t even say that a AR… He doesn’t even… if you asked him right now, “Hey, what does an AR-15 fire?” he would have absolutely —

CLAY: What do you think he’s trying to say?

BUCK: Absolutely no idea. Look. They’ve created this bogeyman of assault rifles as the thing that is — and it’s so dishonest and so stupid. You know what kills people in this country, if you’re gonna talk about — first of all, what kills people are criminals. Who you should lock up. Start with that. But the weapon in 97% of shootings is a handgun — 97% of shootings is a handgun.

CLAY: Yes.

BUCK: And so, you sit here, you say, we have to get lectured about AR-15s all the time? What about all the — not only are the guns that are handguns in the cities, Clay, they keep letting people who are criminals found with handguns off without any major charges who then go on to actually murder people because they don’t want the cops to seem racist in major cities and there’s a disparate impact of handgun laws. That is what is happening.

CLAY: No doubt.

BUCK: — Biden thinks he’s talking about other than the same stupid talking points he’s made for 30 years.
