Second hour of Clay Ann Buck kicks off right now. Thanks for being here with us. We'll get back into some of the redistricting conversation and talk to the governor of Florida Ron DeSantis, who I'm just going to tell you as a Florida resident. I'm going to have to say that he comes on. I always feel grateful to what a fantastic job he has done. We should tease. It's kind of a good tease that one of our podcast group has been nominated.
So, yes, Ron DeSantis will join us. Let me read this from President Trump. Can you please tell everybody, let's actually a tease is a promise, as they say in the business. Let's keep our promise. President Trump, I am pleased to announce I am nominated Dr. Sapphire to be the next Surgeon General of the United States of America. And he says she's an incredible communicator who makes complicated health issues more easily understood by all Americans. She'll do great things for our country and help make America healthy again. Congrats, Nicole. Our country has long been waiting for you. She is also now in the Clay and Buck podcast network. So this is the second person. to leave the Clay and Buck Podcast Network, among other things, she is a doctor. But to now, we first, Sean Parnell joined the Pentagon, and he is the chief spokesperson for Pete Hegseth. And now Nicole Sapphire is going to be the Surgeon General. So you're stepping from the Clay and Buck podcast network into high levels of government jobs. She's obviously on Fox News and as well as a doctor. We've had Nicole in the program quite a bit over the years. She's great, but congratulations to her. This reminds me of what I did. You've known Pete for a long time. But I did election night from Kid Rock with Pete Hegseth. And then I didn't even know I was driving in a car pickup line for my kids. And I wasn't even sure when they were like, hey, what do you think about the new Secretary of Defense nominee being a guy you've done shows with? And I was like, did Bucket nominee? Like it could have been anybody, right? Like, you know. But a lot of the people that you hear on this program are obviously very involved in government. So congrats to Dr. Sapphire. Have I ever told you what is probably my favorite Pete Hegseth story from the Blaze Days? Is it the drinking dirty water? I did tell you. I did tell you. Yeah, yeah. But you should tell it again. I mean, I do think that's kind of indicative of, of, you know, where we had, we had a survival gear sponsor. who made a, and I'm going to be clear, this was in Midtown Manhattan folks, okay? We had a survival gear sponsor at the Blaze who made some kind of a, like, I don't really, this is, we're going back, this is almost 15 years ago, okay, it's been a long time, 13, 14 years ago at least. And it was like you can be at a muddy stream or pond or whatever and you run the water through this contraption and it is safe to drink. That was basically the thing. And I think it was Will Kane, now Fox News's 4 PM host, was my co-host on Real News. There were a few of us. It was a roundtables. There were four plus a rotating guest. uh rotating contributor and Pete Hegseth was the was in that rotation so he was the host for the day and i remember i think will it's like a very will cane
thing to just be like you know i don't think i don't think you're willing to really you know he kind of like goaded goaded him peed on this one a little bit uh and you know they're very you know they hosted fox and friends together for years so they're they're very tight they're very good buddies but this was years and years ago he's like i don't think you'll do it and to his credit and i i'm going to tell you this is true i actually kind of left him like pete don't don't do this i was like i was like actually a little worried i think the surprises none of you the will is like come on step up Let's see what you got. And Pete, now our secretary of war, went to a, you know those like oil slick kind of puddles on the side of a New York City sidewalk where the water is this kind of brown, translucent, sludge, whatever? I kid you not. He scooped that up into the contraption, put it through and chugged it. I was amazed. By the way, he was fine. So we should have videoed it because it was a great ad. But that was one of the ballsier things I'd seen anybody who was a TVOs to at the time. Oh, of course he turned to me. Clay, what do you think? Do you think I was like, oh, yeah, I'll try it now? There's zero percent chance that you are willing to do that. Zero percent. You guys think Captain get off my lawn was going to try the dirty water? Zero chance. I was like, only Fiji in the bottle for me, sir. So anyway, but that's one of my favorite Pete stories. You have to take your monocle off to be trying that water. Absolutely. I was like the water for the peasants out of the street, I think not. So, all right. Now let's get you. I just kind of a fun little memory lane thing there. It's amazing with that show. A lot of the people who went on and did great things. And yeah, for future Secretary of Defense. Secretary, I'm very confident they're going to change the name back if it's a Democratic. Whenever there is a Democrat administration, they're not going to keep the Secretary of War thing, just so you guys will. So that's, I don't know how we're going to handle this. Now we're going to go back and forth. Different administrations have it. Anyway, let's talk Supreme Court TPS for a second here, Clay. I thought this was really interesting. One of the ways that... One of the ways that the whole DEI affirmative action thing falls apart, there are many ways. Inherently in principle, it's just wrong. But one of the ways it falls apart is when you start to dig into what are the classifications really? For example, if you're going to discriminate against white people, which is what DEI and affirmative action do, who qualifies as white? I had a friend many years ago who was an Arab Egyptian born in Cairo who claimed that she was African for the purposes of her college. African, not African American, African for the purposes of her college admissions. And it was a huge scandal and I think they accepted it and then rescind. It was a big problem. And she's like, okay, so I'm from Africa. literally born and raised there, but, you know, I think she'd apply to Harvard, but you don't accept that. So it's a skin color test? Is that what actually, and this is where it all, listen to, this isn't just a theoretical. The Supreme Court today talking about Haitian and Syrian temporary protected status individuals. Notice the temporary word in there. They're fighting this. No, no, no. They've had this for years and years and years. It's not like they've been here for two weeks.
Notice the way that Samuel Alito pushes one of the plaintiffs in the case, the, what do you call? Lawyer, what's the guy? Complaintant. You use the legal things. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, typically would be the, they're suing. So I don't know what the official title would be in front of the Supreme Court, but he's the advocate for the perspective of the attorney for the plaintiff. Yeah. So listen to this, though. What is White Samuel Alito asks? Like, I really listen to this. Play one. Isn't it the case that? TPS was terminated for quite a list of countries. I can't seem to find the particular page of the transcript where the district court goes through them all. Yes, none of those is a Nordic country, and I don't like dividing up the people of the world arbitrarily into three racial groups. But you say they're all non-white, and that's the distinguishing characteristic. That is the distinguishing characteristic that the district court held. But I would emphasize, Samuel Alito, that if you put Syrians, Turks, Greeks, and other people who live around the Mediterranean in a lineup. Do you think you could say those people are all of them? Are they all non-white? I understand that Syrians, I think, may be classified as white for purposes of the State Department or for under certain government, you know, certain government programs. But again, I think race is, I think. You know, you'd have to pull the public to know what they think the race of Assyrian is. I certainly think they're not white. Clay, he obviously starts, you know, jabbering on here. He has no. I actually want, I just want this to continue because this is Samuel Alito asking a very fair question. Your contention, people suing, is, oh, it's so racist because they don't want any of the, they're not, you know, it's only white people that are okay. but aren't there white people in these countries that, and when I say, it's not like there's a few, aren't there people in some of these countries that are white, that, you know, maybe even the majority of or a large percentage of, part two of this Supreme Court argument. Play this one. Pull the American people. Well, do they think Syrians are white? I wouldn't think that most would, Samuel Alito. Really? I really don't. How about Turks? I honestly haven't considered what racial component I would sort Turks in. How about Greeks? I don't know the answer to that either. How about Southern Italians? Well, certainly 120 years ago when we had our last wave of European immigration, Southern Italians were not considered white. So I think our concept of these things evolves over time. How about Spangers?
I think same answer about 120 years ago. I don't think they were considered white. I have a really large, a really broad definition of who's white and who's not white. As I said, I don't like dividing the people of the world into these groups. I understand. I would say that even under this court's rationality jurisprudence, if you look at cases like Moreno, it is not necessary for us to get strict scrutiny to win here. Because irrespective of how you do the classification. Okay, put this aside because this is about the race thing. Clay. I've been to Greece. I mean, I've been to Athens. I've been to Madrid. If you walked around and you told your, I mean, I know there are also black people in these countries, of course, but what you think of is your average Greek or your average Madrieno guy lives in Madrid, and you're like, you're not white. They would laugh in your face. They'd be like, what are you talking about? I mean, that line of questioning is so, so, I think, indicative of the racial spoils system that Democrats have created and just kind of hoisting them on their proverbial pittard by going through. I mean, look, it's like the drop of blood makes you black theory back in the day, right? In the South pre-Civil War era. Democrats have allowed identity politics to so take over their party. that they have no way to escape. This is why Kamala Harris has to be the nominee to me, Buck. This is, in 28, not only in 24, because certainly that's why she was the nominee in 24. The racial spoil system that they have created does not allow a black woman like Kamala Harris to be left behind from being the nominee. She's going to play the race and gender card to such an extent that I don't think there's any way. Democrats are going to be able to get past her. I really don't buck. And I saw I was joking with you off air because the polymarket for who's going to be the nominee, Kamala Harris has quadrupled in the last couple of months, her odds to be the nominee. And I'm not saying, look, whenever I give a prediction like this, I'm not saying I want it to have. You know what depth charges are? You see me with depth charges, you know, when they would try to get submarines and drop it down. I feel like your depth charging Buck Island right now. Like we're already deep underwater and you're dropping them way down and just boom, boom, you know. I'm telling you. I think you've won this one. She is going to play. But I mean, the step beyond, she's definitely going to run. But she is going to be the nominee. And some of you out there are shaking your heads and you think I'm crazy. I'm telling you she's going to be the nominee. Can we just, can we come back to this point, though, then on this? Yeah. Will she be formidable if she's the nominee? Like, do we have to worry about it? There's an early tease. That's what we call it's in the business.
And who knows, by the time we come back, somebody else may be nominated from the network to be a member of the administration. But I do want to tell you, it's not very long until Mother's Day.

Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Russell in Williamsburg, Virginia. It's a great place to visit if you're a history fan. What you got for us? Hey, Clay and Buck, moving to Florida. You're done. Love it. Well, it's not just one reason, but her being elected didn't, you know, didn't change. How long have you been in Virginia? Born and raised. We grew up in historic Yorktown, Williamsburg, lived in Williamsburg the last 30 years. And so you've been thinking about this for a while? What was the I can't do this anymore that you've decided to move to Florida? Was it Abigail Spanberger winning? It wasn't. I can't do this anymore. I've been back and forth to Florida many times in the last few years, and I just love the way Florida's run. I love the infrastructure there. It's so much better and so superior than what's here in Virginia. The roads are immaculate. Everywhere you go, it's clean. And I'm not going to southern Florida. I don't think I could stand 12 months of hot, but Fernandina, Amelia Island, 20 minutes. Oh, it's beautiful there, too. And it's just gorgeous. There's nothing like it here. There's nothing in Virginia except the Blue Ridge Mountains and the coast that even comes close. Well, that is awesome, Russell. Thank you for the call. Hey, Russell. I'm just going to tell you something, buddy. I thought I'd never leave New York. My man, you made a great decision. You're going to love it. Congratulations. Thank you. Love you guys. Yeah, you too, man. Thank you. All right. Who's next up, Clay? Mike in Oswego. Oswego. I know it's Sunni there, right? In New York. Mike, what you got for us? Well, you guys were talking about racist stuff. You know, I worked on an office as an engineer in Cape Town, South Africa. They have only one nuclear plant in the entire continent. Well, it's two-unit plant. At any rate, the point of what I'm saying was if you wanted to talk about racism, and I don't use the term reverse racism, which is ridiculous. But the white English people who are there are extremely oppressed by the black native population. They run the country. And I just wondered if you knew about that because whites are depressed there. In fact, A girl that I dated there, white, English, African, or, you know, African woman, she came over here and visited the USA, and she was just crying. What do you guys think of that? Have you heard of it? Oh, well, just so you know, we've talked about it, and I've talked about, this is in the context of Zimbabwe, but Mugabe and the white African is a fantastic documentary that deals with the same. It's the same system of racial preference and then racial persecution in Zimbabwe that you have in South Africa, just it's black on white. So I would recommend anybody who has not seen that documentary. It is haunting, but it is fantastic.
And it got a lot of international attentions, about a decade, decade and a half old. I dated a girl who was white, South African, Jewish girl at GW, her whole family. moved when she was a little girl as the chaos began to set in. I mean, Buck, they just replaced one systemic racism with another. Plain and simple. So worst case example of what could happen here. You know, in South Africa, women don't have to stop at red lights because it's so dangerous to drive a car. Think about what I just said for a minute. All over the whole country, if you are female and there is a red light, stopping is considered so dangerous that they just keep going. Or think back 20 years ago, 2006. Suppose you would save $10,000 for retirement. Do you have any idea what that would be worth in gold if you had invested that $10,000 in gold 20 years later? It's about $75,000 today. The value of gold has gone up that much over time. Look, gold over the long term makes sense. You can see this yourself. The data is out there. The information is freely available. Look at the trend. Look at the chart of gold value. Go back 20 years, 30 years, 40 years. Birch Gold Group. thinks that gold is going to continue to increase in value because of the fundamental reasons, like, for example, the U.S. dollar losing its value. Birch Gold Group wants to teach you more about this. They're offering their learn and earn precious metals event. Free online event rewards you for the basics of investing in precious metals. Take advantage of it this week. There's special things you can get, too, by the way, when you join. Text my name Buck to 98, 98, 98. Text BUCK to 98-98-98, join Birch Gold, learn and earn precious metals event. Sometimes here we talk about New York is having perhaps the worst mayor in the country for any large city, our largest city. We don't talk as much these days we were before discussing. That it also has, the state of New York, unfortunately, my home state, and I will always be a New Yorker, just a very happy New York. I'm just a very happy Floridian now New Yorker in exile. But it also has one of the worst attorney generals in the country. Somebody who has completely undermined the rule of law by openly weaponizing her powers as Attorney General, Letitia James, to go after Donald Trump. We talked about this a lot during that persecution, the absurdity of it, but there's somebody who's trying to do something about it as well. Saritha Comitaretti is running for New York Attorney General. She is the Republican nominee for that post, and she joins us now. Sarita, thank you for making the time for us. Thank you so much. It's great to be here. What has, other than openly saying,
I want to get elected so I can go after Donald Trump and then bringing a farcical civil case against Donald Trump, pretending that Mar-a-Lago was worth $18 million, which anybody who spent three minutes in Palm Beach knows is preposterous, all this stuff. What has she done in addition to that? Or other than that, which we know has been a disaster, the Attorney General of New York so far has been up to what? Well, what is she done? She's failed to keep New Yorkers safe. I mean, you see the headlines, I'm sure, just like I do. I experience them living in New York City. There's random violence. There's increased homelessness on the streets. There's people who feel ripped off every day because we don't know where our taxpayer money is going. We don't know why we pay for things where other people seem to not to pay at all. And it's... There's a sense of lawlessness in New York. And it's exactly for the reasons that you pointed out because our current Attorney General, Letitia James, that all of the resources of that office to pursue partisan vendettists. Instead of doing what a state attorney general should do, keep the citizens safe. And that's exactly why New York is in the shape that it's in right now. I want to get to the AG situation. I'm also a little bit of a legal nerd. So thank you for throwing your name in the race here and being willing to deal with the slings and arrows. But I wanted to ask you, I believe you were on the D.C. Circuit and clerked for Brett Kavanaugh. At least that's what the resume I read said. What was Brett Kavanaugh like and what was that experience like for you? Well, Brett Kavanaugh, now Brett Kavanaugh was, just is a phenomenal judge, is the hardest working person that I know, a very decent man, someone I consider a mentor and a friend, and someone who really is a big supporter of all of his clerks and especially his female clerks. I often tell people you, the first opinion that I helped Brett Kavanaugh with was an opinion that we went through. More than a hundred drafts because he cares so much about getting the law right, making sure that the law... also impacts people in the right way. You know, he's not someone who's stuck in the ivory tower. He really thinks about how does the law interact with people's everyday lives and is the decision that he's coming to consistent with the law itself, respectful of the separation of powers, consistent with the text of the law, and does it make sense in how it fits in with people's everyday lives? So what are you going to do differently if you become the Attorney General of the state of New York? Because a lot of people think of what you mentioned living in New York City, which I did for almost 40 years or so. There's crime on the streets there. People say, well, that's an NYPD thing and that's a local thing. And how does the Attorney General for New York play into making not just people in New York City, but people safe across the state more broadly? Like what kind of priorities are set? I mean, take us into that.
Yeah, I mean, listen, the Attorney General can prosecute crime. You wouldn't know it because she doesn't really use those powers. But there's a number of areas where the Attorney General can prosecute crime on her own or with the signature of the governor or any state agency head. And the issue right now in New York is that we don't have strong prosecutors. And we don't have strong prosecution policies and laws. We had this sea change in 2019 and 2020 where this anti-law enforcement wave came into the state. And so even though for many years, we did prosecute crime well. We did keep the numbers low. We now have a phenomenon in New York where every day you hear about someone getting hurt and the person that's hurting them is a repeat offender, already known to law enforcement, already arrested. But because of our broken system, that person is back out on the street. And to be fair, it's not the police's fault. We have the best police force in the world. They're real professionals. But the police can't do it alone. They need prosecutors to back them out and to follow through on the cases and actually make sure real consequences are imposed on the people that they catch. And that is where we're lacking in New York. So I'm going to use the office of the Attorney General to make sure we actually prosecute crime. You know, we have a DA in Manhattan who issued a memo on day one saying, I'm not going to prosecute these, you know, 15 offenses where I'm going to treat them with leniency. I'm going to knock down the charges. Well, the Attorney General can step in and say, actually, then I'm going to prosecute those things. A great example of this is subway crime. The DAs in New York City don't prosecute fare evasion. Even though the city and the state are losing millions of dollars a year and don't know how to make ends meet with their budget, they don't actually make many people, a huge fraction of people pay the fare. But it's not just about the money. That's one part of it. The bigger problem is we now have. people in the subways who are either mentally ill or who are actual violent criminals hurting others. And that's a problem. Those kinds of people should never be in the subway. Every day New Yorkers have to take the subway, they go to work and go to school and see their families. They shouldn't be afraid of being pushed on the tracks, for example. But that's exactly what people are afraid of. You go into the subway today and everyone's got their back to the wall because you know what in 2006 so far? Nine people have been pushed on the tracks. And the last person who was pushed on the tracks was an elderly fellow, an 83 year old gentleman, Air Force veteran, pushed by someone who had 15 prior offenses. So. This is the kind of lawlessness that we're seeing, and it's preventable because the attorney general, as attorney general on day one, I will create a transit crime strike force. I'll make sure we prosecute their evasion so that dangerous people are stopped at the Bill Gates aren't let in to the subway system at all. And I'll make sure we ban people like that, repeat offenders, violent offenders from the subway system altogether. So I was just going to say, how does a Republican win in New York? What's the math?
Well, it's simple. You know, it's a very divided time in New York. You wouldn't necessarily know it from the outside, but when you live here, it's very simple. Most people in New York are not actually on the far left. We have a Democratic Party that's lost all the way to the extremes. And there's a lot of folks in the middle who are looking for common sense. And what we're talking about, bringing back law and order, enforcing the laws, doing so in a way that's ethical and lawful, but enforcing the laws, those are things that most New Yorkers agree on, and most Americans agree on. They want you to enforce the laws. They want you to reduce crime, reduce homelessness, reduce fraud. They're not actually partisan issues, and we're going to win because of that. So I've seen a poll that shows 54%. This is a recent poll, by the way, Sienna poll. 54% of voters are open to a different attorney general than the one that they have right now, which seems to line up with a lot of New Yorkers aren't crazy, it turns out. Well, that's exactly right. 54% of New Yorkers either actively prefer someone other than the Letitia James or open to someone else. That is, she is the weakest incumbent in New York State. She's less popular than the governor. That, you just answered the question of exactly why it's winnable. So you're just, you know, you're on WOR, a massive station in New York City right now. You're on WGY and all. I mean, I can't name. We got stations all over the state of New York, which is fine. We're heard out in Long Island on the WR. And so that's good. I'm curious, though. Are you getting any fair attention, any fair time from the rest of the New York? By the way, Letitia James, absolutely welcome to come on this program team. Make sure we have that. I think we already did have it out, but let's sure we have that invite out to her. She is welcome to come and talk to us about why she hasn't been the worst attorney general in the history of New York State, although Spitzer was kind of bad. How is the New York media treating you? Are you getting a fair shot at all from them? Who's putting your – because I feel like we just got to get your name out there more – because Letitia James is terrible. And she's honestly just terrible. I can say that. I can say whatever I want. It's an opinion show. She's awful. Well, listen, I appreciate that question. We are making our way around the state. We're getting a lot of, we were getting a lot of attention. I was in Albany yesterday. I had a press conference talking about exactly what we were just discussing transit crime. And I was standing alongside legislators and Albany who are proposing enhanced penalties for those crimes. I was in Buffalo a few weeks ago holding a press conference there. And, you know, local TV radio has had me on there, including a number of different shows, you know, Channel 2, Sports Talk Radio.
So we are making our way around. And the most important thing that I would say, you know, given the statewide reach is, you know, you would be surprised. The issues that I talk about, you know, the repeat offenders out on the streets, the increase in drug deaths, the issue of homelessness, they're not just city issues. These are issues that every county in New York State is experiencing. And I know that because I am going county by county and holding law enforcement roundtables. I just had another one this morning in Green County. Where I sit down with the sheriffs and the police and the DAs and I say, hey, what is going on? What are you seeing? What are you hearing? And it is always some version of the same story. There are no consequences anymore in New York. And law-abiding people know it and they're getting frustrated and the criminals know it and they are committing more crime because that's what happens when there's no consequences. These are solvable problems. We're going to solve them together because we're going to put together a common sense coalition. across the political spectrum to bring change to New York. Sarita, where can folks go in the state of New York if they want to help out, get involved? On my website, Sarita, S-A-R-I-T-H-A-4 New York, all spelled out.com. There's a form on there. There's more information. You'll see my recent media appearance as well, as well. Good luck. It would be nice to have some law and order back in the Empire State. I'm always rooting for New York, from afar, from Florida with my zero state income tax. But good luck to you. Thank you so much, Aritha. Comeet already. Appreciate you. Thank you very much. Look, yesterday, Charles III, Queen Nick. Cam, Camilla, man, I don't know why I can't, that's a weird name, isn't it? I mean, now and Kamala Harris is so close. Yesterday, Charles III and Queen Camilla visited the 9-11 Memorial and Museum in New York City. They took part in a wreathling ceremony honoring the victims there. The British and Commonwealth people overall lost 67. lives on 9-11, the most of any nation other than our own. Our sponsor, Tunnel to the Towers, was started by the brother of a firefighter who lost his life that day. And many of you know the story of Stephen Siller. He had just finished his shift, was on his way to play golf with his brothers when he got word of a plane hitting the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Upon hearing the news, Stephen called his wife Sally and asked her to tell his brothers he would catch up with them later. They never saw him again. That is the story that inspired Frank Siller to start Tunnel to Towers. And his older brother, Frank Siller, well, he's been fighting ever since on behalf of so many people out there putting their lives on the line, sometimes losing their lives on behalf of all of us. As we come up on the 25th anniversary of that horrific day, Buck and I are going to be doing lots of events with Tunnel to Towers. And we're also donors.

Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. We are rolling through the Thursday edition of the program. A couple of things that are out there. President Trump Buck just tweeted in the last little bit. I want to make sure that I get it right. He's talking, tweeting about the six to three decision that was made. And I do think that is going to change some of the situation out there. He said, I had a very good conversation. So Louisiana has pushed back their primary to allow them to redraw the lines.
President Trump just tweeted, I had a very good conversation with Governor Bill Lee of Tennessee, wherein he stated he would work hard to correct the unconstitutional flaw in the congressional maps of the great state of Tennessee. Likewise, all the other political representative Tennessee have promised to do so. This should give us one extra seat and help save our country from radical left Democrats. And so this is the Memphis seat. Buck, I will say one of the challenges, and we will talk with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis directly about this redistricting battle, is figuring out. how protected red seats are, and what the overall dynamic can look like, you might end up with some toss-up seats, like might happen down in Texas. Maybe it's going to happen in Florida. Maybe it would happen in Tennessee in that Memphis congressional district, which was the only blue seat, the only Democrat held district in the entire state. But... A lot of different southern states in particular going back to look at their maps. And I also think you would appreciate this. Terry Moran, who was fired by ABC News for being too liberal, just tweeted at me during the show that I was stupid. I've responded to him. I've responded to him, but I happen to look up, and he is on CNN right now. So it is kind of funny. A guy tweets that I'm stupid. And then I look up and he is on CNN right now. Did you respond? I know you are, but what am I? I actually respond. I don't have it pulled up right in front of me, but I said I wouldn't fight with his knowledge of stupidity given that he managed to be fired by ABC News for being too liberal, which I think is a, and therefore must be quite the expert on being stupid. Because if you get fired for being two left wing from ABC and BC or. uh cbs you probably have uh have managed to put yourself in a what did he do i don't remember now what was his what was the last straw he went after Stephen Miller and said like he was an awful human being and filled with evil or something like that late at night i'm assuming he was probably drunk and yeah but it was something super uh personal and uh and detailed on Stephen Miller and on Trump. And ABC was so bad that even ABC said, well, you can't even pretend to be an objective journalist anymore if this is your perspective on this. Do we have Governor Ron DeSantis with us coming up next? Will you? Is that where we're going? Is that going to be off? I believe where we're headed. By the way, we've got a funny podcast listener. He got attacked by an armadillo while he was talking to us. Podcast listener F. out the hour. My wife and I own a preschool in the southeast Texas area.
And when we bought our own business, we realized how difficult that life can be for people who make $12 to $15 an hour. We pay more than any other preschool in our area on average. And it's tough. And the people who deal on gig jobs, don't report their income, they get all these snap benefits. They make much more than our, oh, my God, that's a big old armadillo. Anyway. Whoa. Bigel armadillo.
