This is an iHeart podcast. The Smoking gun in Russiagate. The smoking gun and BLS statistics and the smoking Nazi for American eagle. Today on the David Rutherford Show. What's up, everybody? Stoked to have you back. Today on the David Rutherford Show. It's. It's once again as I take two seconds back and trying to wrap my mind around everything, everything as I'm out there on the road going from state to state and city to city and have. And I spend an exorbitant amount of time in airports, therefore, an exorbitant amount of time with my face and consciousness buried in X. Right. And which just recently became America's number one app, which I thought was kind of funny considering that Elon Musk is a Nazi. And that seems to be a really overbearing concept permeating across a lot of news stories right now that their Nazis are on the loose. But I. What I'm trying to do, and Jordy, help me out if, if, if, if, if, if you're dealing with this a little bit too. And now I know you do have a newborn baby, so when you're not editing the show and making everything look awesome and building our audience and our following, I. I would imagine that, you know, know, taking care of that beautiful child is much more of a. A focus for you than. And keeping your. Your nose on X. And I'm assume I'm right in that. Right?
Jordy
I do my best. I do my best. I'm not perfect. I'm a flawed man. But yeah, it's. It's taking a little bit more time than X.
David Rutherford
All right, good, good, at least. All right. That. That makes me happy. Well, I, I cannot help it, obviously, for what I do for a living on multiple different plat, platinum, platitudes or platform. Not platitude, but platforms of what I talk about every day and on the microphone. You know, I think by far the biggest story, hands down, is the story of all of the different revelations and the documents that Tulsi Gabber released last week. This story quantifiably just dispels any other possibility of actual nefarious interference in the 2016 elections. And really, if for lack of a better term, actually for the actual term, I believe it's not too far of a stretch to say this was a couple. And it's apparent that Hillary Clinton and her cohorts in this conspiracy got together and they had to figure out how to solve the problem, which was massive, that she had been illegally storing the highest level classified material on her private servers. And cell phones, along with other people in her political world, which is an illegal thing. Obviously we saw Biden administration try and railroad Trump for the same thing in the Mar A Lago raid, which is ironic because, you know, obviously Biden himself got, you know, hit as vice president storing fake record or records, classified material in his garage at UPenn in the, the China Institute that was funded. And I mean, it's just, you know, the, the fact that there is so much insane evidence of corruption from these people is nuts. And you know, and so she is in a jam. So what she do, she conjured up the whole Russiagate thing, that Donald Trump was a stooge and launched this whole thing. Well, guess what? One of my favorite reporters in the whole world is a guy named Mike Benz. You, I'm sure you've seen him or heard him on Tucker Carlson, on Sean Ryan, on Joe Rogan, and just about every other podcast out there, the War Room, you name it, he goes on it. And he just does this incredible work that has been his Life's work since 2016, which was to expose the industrial censorship complex that had been ultimately created through the intelligence or the IC world, initially through color revolutions, and then ultimately that was turned against the American people at the behest of Clintons and the Clinton campaign. Now this evidence that he discovered and that he posted just a few days ago for me was the linchpin. I mean, it's the, this is the thing, this is the smoking gun. And it was an email from a gentleman. And Jordy's going to put that up right now so you can look at this. And, and it's an email that was written by Leonard Bernardo, who was the senior Vice President of Operation of Eurasian Operations for the Open Society Foundation. Now, unless you've been on Iraq, you realize that that's George Soros's organization. George Soros has very intimate ties to the Clintons, to Obama's, to Brennan and all these other people. You know, there have been just thousands of of NGOs that were funded by the Open Society foundation for all kinds of nefarious things and direct correlations for USAID and other intelligence operations. I can't wait till that investigation that needs to begin asap. And I hope you're paying attention. Anybody within DOJ that that needs to be taking place. So within this email, it basically this is what it says and it's dated July 27, 2016. Hi HRC. Hillary Clinton approved Julia's idea about Trump and Russia hackers hampering US elections. That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level. The point is making Rush the Russia play a US domestic issue, say something like a critical infrastructure threat for the election to feel menace. Since both POTUS and V POTUS have acknowledged the fact IC would speed up searching for evidence that is regrettably still unavailable. All right, so we know that the first inclination of this was hatched in May, June of 2016 when they realized, oh no, Donald Trump is polling pretty good. And that's when this whole thing was hatched. And what this email proves is that not only was Hillary Clinton and her crew involved, as well as John Brennan, Christopher Wray Deputy Director or the station chief over in London, I forget what her name. She was the head of the CIA under, under Trump. For a. All these people within State Department, the FBI, even though they, they knew that this was made up. What was fascinating is that this was in the trove that Tulsi Gabber recently released. And what it confirms is the conspiracy of behind all these people. Right? This was the conspiracy. And what, what was also interesting is that this term, critical infrastructure. Now why is it so critical to understand the importance of this, this term? Because this term, this term was then used on January 6, 2017. The outgoing head of DHS in the Obama administration basically deemed that elections comprised critical infrastructure, laws and, and protection. And so thus making that anything that damages US Elections is now under the legal oversight of the Department of Homeland Security. Right. And so just that term, anything that can be construed by the intelligence world, by the FBI, by dhs, by any group, nsa, any group within the IC ecosphere, then it becomes critical to the government in order to protect and defend and all that. Right. And, and, and so what happened as a result? This opened the door for this massive Mueller investigation into Donald Trump. It opened the door for the plan to be pushed through under the guy and the legal guys that hey, elections were under attack, the 2016 elections are under attack. And, and that everybody that's affiliated in, working or connected to Russia, I. E. The, the Steele dossier or the connection from Trump Tower to the Russian bank or whatever it was then, now all of a sudden, anybody in that, that, that is involved with the proposed attack on critical infrastructure, the elections of 2016, can guess what can now be censored, indicted, investigated to whatever degree that the administration or the, under the non elected administration, the deep state, or as Mike Benz calls it, the Blob. You know, and this is something that you need to understand. You got to Understand that when, when your government, which, you know, if you really want to go crazy and go down a rabbit hole and we should probably do this, we should, you know, at. Jordyn, let's make a note, man, I would love to go find a world class expert on the Patriot act and somebody we can bring in. And really we're gonna go because that's where we started to really lose our civil liberties. And I think, you know, it's just gotten worse and worse and worse. And we saw this emerge after 2016 and then where did we really see this explode? Right? We saw it in 2020 in those elections. And you think this 20002016 Russiagate stuff was, was crazy. Wait till they Trump's administration and its dog FBI starts to investigate the 2020 election fiasco. If you ask me, that's going to blow everybody, all this out of water. It is probably the most catastrophic thing to have ever taken place in American history other than the Civil War. And we will find out that what we believe is true about our election system is absolutely false. And our justice system, well, I think, I think most people by now and remember when we did the episode on the justice system, right. It's, it's, it's, you know, it's rules for thee and not for me. And we're seeing that. And that's why I think the MAGA movement and kind of this growing populace and I don't just think it's the Magnum movement, I think it's, it's liberals alike. I mean, my other favorite person covering this is Matt Taibbi of Racket News and you should subscribe to, on substack to his group. They do wonderful reporting on all of this stuff. You know, he, he, I mean he won awards writing for Rolling Stone. He's definitely no conservative, if by any stretch. But what he does realize is that America, the institutions are corrupt to the core and that something needs to take place. You know. Well, another aspect about this release in this particular document and what we can do is I just want to play just a little, a little clip for you from Mike Benz on this little sequence real short. And you can understand just the, the importance by just listening to the tone of his voice.
Mike Benz
I mean the whole thing is a bombshell crowd strike that was going to be used as a media, a media vehicle that Hillary Clinton had hatched this plot that the FBI was going to pour oil on it for them. But what's right in the middle of that paragraph, the goal is to make the Russia play a U.S. domestic issue. Say something like, critical infrastructure is a threat to elections. It was that casual, that flippant, that cavalier. Do you know, can you appreciate the, the seismic implications of such a throwaway sentence? Every university in this country was twisted by russiagate, Harvard. Tens of millions of dollars to study Russian interference. U.S. army War College money to study military strategy in light of Russian interference. Billions of dollars to NGOs to study and conduct counter operations to Russian interference. When there was none, and they knew there was none the whole time. What was the legal predicate? Because how do you get around the First Amendment? Well, you say, well, there's a government role in protecting critical infrastructure. And that supersedes, I guess, the First Amendment right to freedom of speech.
David Rutherford
Great. When I listen to that dude, I get so fired up. I get so angry. I get so pissed off. That, man, I just. What has taken place? Why are we in this position? And the fact of the matter is, is that I think you just have, you know, a group of people that have moved into positions of power and the recognition that there are no ramifications for their actions. No matter what they do, they're going to get away with it. And even if they are found guilty or anything, it's not like they're going to jail. They're not paying fines, they're not losing. I mean, just now they lost their security clearances. But there's still people from that administration and from this whole operation that still have clearances that are still in the government to, to. Which is just unbelievable. And our next story is going to be about that. So, you know, the, the last thing that I just want to touch about on this is, you know, in what was just released, we do have John Brennan's handwritten notes, note from August 3, 2016, where he basically saw the DC leaks email confirming this. And, and this email was in those DC Leaks. Right? And if you're, you're not familiar with the DC Leaks stuff, these were basically that or that administration came out and said that it was this Russian military intelligence agency known as Fancy Bear. And according to the indictment by Robert, Special Counsel Robert Mueller said that these 12 Russian GRU officers used the DC Leaks website, established in June 16 as part of a Russian operation interview in 2016. Well, when you dig into those, you know, that's where we saw these claims which also ended up to WikiLeaks, basically that, you know, it was these groups, Trout, CrowdStrike and some. In some others, these cybersecurity firms like Threat Connect and Crowdside that were, you know, that got this stuff and identified what was happening. Well, the truth of the matter is that was all bullshit now that they had made this stuff up and that's what had taken place. You know, so when you get to the place where you see John Brennan's fingerprints, then he lied under oath. You see Christopher Ways lying under oath. You see James Clapper lying under oath. Comey lying under oath. What I want to see is I want to see Hillary Clinton being, I want to see her go under oath. I want to see John Podesta under oath. I want to see these people come out and lie again to the American people, which guarantee the next one. All you're going to hear is, I plead the Fifth. I plead the Fifth. I plead the Fifth. So again, this story is the biggest story of your life. I hope you understand that. And if you could, I think what you need to do is you need to get on the phone and you need to start banging on your local congressman, you need to start banging on your senator, you need to start banging on the Department of Justice, and you need to demand something takes place right enough. We, we have to get someone under oath in a court through these indictments. Now, I did see John Radcliffe, the head of the CIA was on with Maria Bartolomo on Fox saying that they continue to find all this discovery and they are sending it to the doj. So it's on. It's in Pam Bondi's court again. So I'll tell you what, Pam, unless you want something of the tune of a revolution taking place, you better start laying those indictments down. All right, Check out Mike Benz. Go visit him on X. Check out Matt Taibi. Cause that's where all this stuff lives. All right, the next story I want to cover. And, and this is a trip, man. Just on August 1st, the Bureau of Labor and Statistics Commissioner Erica McEntifar, was fired by Donald Trump. Now why? Because the, those BLS statistics that had been released in May and June basically came out and they had to revise them. Not by several hundred or a couple thousand, by tens of thousands. Now, if any of you remember these statistics that were popping off last summer and the lead up to the election, you remember what we ended up discovering too, is that two months later, after all these came out, on these monthly basis, they were all revised. And those numbers were revised by hundreds of thousands in terms of errors, revised.
Jordy
In the same direction. That's key. That's not just they, oh, sometimes we make mistakes. We have to correct it. That would be understandable when it's all always revised in the direction that makes them look worse after the fact. That's where, you know, it's a little bit suspicious.
David Rutherford
Little bit. They're cooking the damn books, Jordy. That's, there's no other doubt that they are cooking the books to make it look like the economy's healthier than it is in order to help what, what does that do? What does that do for the stock market? What does it do for investment? What does it do for pension plans? What does it do for the American investor? What does it do for banks? Right? You know, these, these statistics are critical statistics that, you know, people at my company, you know, the economists that I, that I work with, man, they, these are the, the statistics that, that enable them for, to predict how the economy is looking. And you know, I've seen one incredible economist out there, his name's Brian Westbury, and this guy has been predicting like a downfall in the economy for quarter after quarter of quarter, but it wasn't happening. Why? Because a lot of these statistics are cooked. Now I want you to ask yourself this, Think about this. If this person who was put in, can you look up when she was put into office and, and when she, when she was nominated and put into office for me?
Jordy
Yes.
David Rutherford
Thanks, Jordy. So, and then, and then when you can put up those, that, that graph for me too, so people can just see the changes. So think about this, right? If the BLS commissioner, the head of these critical numbers that affect the entire economy, if they're cooking the books to make the administration look good, what other commissioners are cooking the books? What other places are books being cooked, right? We already know that DoD has not passed an audit. I don't even know when. We already know that in the intelligence community the complete illegality of funding, you know, these fake nonprofits. We already know that Department of State, Homeland Security was paying billions and billions of dollars to NGOs to illegally house illegal aliens in places all over the country and move them around and asylum. We know they're cooking the books on that. We already know that the FBI was cooking the books on crime statistics. So think about the ramifications, right? If our entire whole thing is based on cooked books, what happens eventually? Well, it's just a house of cards. Don't even get me started on, on how the books could potentially be cooked in, in the markets, right? And I know Jordy loves to go down those rabbit holes and, and, and, and to talk about short selling and bitcoin and all that.
Jordy
You know, what a really interesting chart is the kind of. It kind of speaks for itself that you should just look into and let your mind go down whatever rabbit hole it takes you down. So if you look at the stock market for the past 100 years, you can see it's a pretty great line up into the. Right, right. Never bet against the US Market. It's going up over time on average, blah, blah, blah. What's interesting is that if you. It's. But you have to realize that the stock market is priced in dollars and dollars. The value of the dollar changes up and down over time. Right? So let's price the stock market in something that is fixed, such as gold. If you price the stock market in gold for the past hundred years, it's flat. So what does that tell you? Did the stock market go up or did the value of the dollar go down? That's the real question.
David Rutherford
It collapsed.
Jordy
It collapsed. Are you really making money? No.
David Rutherford
You want to go even down a darker hole? Where, where's the 38 trillion? Where's the $21 trillion we've spent in the last, you know, 16 years or, or 20, 24 years or whatever it is? Where is that money? Where has it been accounted for? Where's it going? So my point of all this is that this is, I think, indicative of where. I know, I know, I know. You listening to me right now feel very similar to. I was like, well, damn. Well, everybody's cooking the books. But if I try and cook my book the books or just find a tax loophole and something goes wrong, man, I'm going to jail. Right? And I've. I've. Dude, I've been audited. I had this horrific tax guy over in Naples, Florida. I forget what name it, I'll remember, but this guy was a complete. It's like Chattahoochee tax things over there. This guy completely robbed a bunch of contractors, cheated us. Well, well, guess what? The IRS came after me big time. And, and just like, it was horrible experience, man. And they, they hit me with a massive tax, like, fine and that I had to pay and all this. And I'm like, dude, what about all these other people that are cooking the books? Like, what happens to them? And I think this is the challenge, and this is when you hit a system that is so fundamentally flawed, what do we do? So again, one of the things that I see that's coming out that I really love, and I think every state in the union should begin to do this. We saw our governor here In Florida, Ron DeSantis. Initiate his own doge thing, but he just came out and re. Re labeled it something else. So hold on. I'm going to tell you which Ron DeSantis. Okay, you're going to love this, Jordy.
Jordy
All right, I'm excited.
David Rutherford
He. He relabeled it like F, A, F O, right? Yeah, yeah, he relayed it. I can't right now. I'm sorry. I'm screen. I'm scrolling through all this stuff right now. But it was so freaking funny, man. So what. But what's the point is, like, he's going to get into each one of these counties and he's going to look at their budget, he's going to look at what they're spending on, and he's going to start to evaluate whether or not they're cooking the books. Because every day we start, we see this. Things happen. And I recommend if you are on your own city council or if you're in local legislation or whatever school board, I suggest you do it to do a force of forensic audit of the books, right? And if not, if you're just a member of the community, you sign a petition. Most. Most petitions to force your city council to act are not grand, but this is the one unifying thing that I think no matter who's in office, everybody gets behind. Where's the corruption, who's cooking the books and who's getting. Getting paid. So again, you know, this is another thing. All right, the last one that I want to talk about, brother, really just is I just. My mind.
Jordy
The rise of Nazism in America. That's the story. Well, that's what I was told.
David Rutherford
According to the Obama administration and the Obama and the Biden administration, the number one threat to Americans are white supremacist groups that are comprised of former operators. G. What people? And. And fascist Nazis, right.
Jordy
Led by Sydney Sweeney, the whole battalion.
David Rutherford
You beat me to the punch, you son of a gun. All right, so what are we going to talk about? We're going to talk about Sidney Sweeney's ad and the complete and utter meltdown from. From radical, progressive crazy people, right?
Jordy
I can't believe they're doing this again.
David Rutherford
Oh, they. They want to have. They learned because, well, they can. It's broken. Like they can't. It. It doesn't work anymore. And that's. That's. That's what happens in all societies, right. At some time point. First, let's just talk about the ad. All right? Now, my first introduction to Sydney Sweeney was within the HBO show called Euphoria. For me, that was an incredibly difficult show to watch, mostly because everybody represented in the show were minors and there was massive drug use. There was all kinds of sexual exploitation and appropriate stuff. But man, there's a component of that that exists within society. And so you go back the old Mov, Basketball Diaries or, you know, there's, you know, these, these really kind of hardcore indie films that, you know, portray the really, you know, dysfunctional underbelly of society within its youth. And, and she was, the acting in it is brilliant. She, her character in particular is incredibly heavy. She did an amazing job, you know, but there was kind of not much because, you know, at that time, you know, Victoria's Secret models were still have been ostracized to the sidelines. And we still had those ads that had been now consumed with really unhealthy people. And we were trying to promote them as, as the standard or what should be looked at, right? We should be forced to look at somebody with their eyes open like Crockwork Orange or whatever it is, and, and stare at something in the 1984 fashion and that we. Is not attractive and say, oh, y. That's beautiful. Right? And, and, and that's, that's what they were able to accomplish for a long period. Well, that shift has sailed, man. And so when this ad dropped a couple weeks ago, I remember seeing, you know, I hadn't seen an ad like that in a long, long time. Now I'm a, I'm a child of the 70s, 80s and 90s, right? And you want to talk about, about attractive women selling just about everything there is to sell. You just got to go to the 1980s, dude. Right? Because feminism had kind of knocked it down a little bit in the 70s. There was still, you know, you know, if it bleeds, it leads. And then also sex sells, right? And so the 80s, they basically what they do, they're like, you know, get out of my face. We're going back to this. What emerged out of the 80s, the Bud Light commercials, the beer. Every single beer commercial had a, you know, a college age girl in a bikini, you know, partying, selling that. And every single major motion pitcher, right? Every major, you know, attractive move. You know, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, all those mega models when they first started. Then of course, Victoria's Secret blew up in the 90s. And like, my God, it was unbelievable. And, and, and so. But then what? Slowly they picked at it. They went away. And you know, we had people that don't take great care of themselves become these spokesmodels. Well, this Thing launched, and it's simple and it's genius. And I think there it immediately started, gotten spread everywhere. And the memes are hilarious, you know, and if you can post that one of Trump and his jean outfit. I love that. That. Oh, my God. I think it's just. And. And then put up the. The. The one. The Babylon be did with Hitler in the jean outfit. I mean, just incredible. It's absolutely stunning to me.
Jordy
I heard someone saying that Trump's being Barron's wingman for Sydney.
David Rutherford
Oh, my God. I saw a meme this morning. I showed it to Jonah, and it's Trump in front of people in the White House. And. And the quote is, it's from Autistic Capital, which, by the way, is one of my favorite sites. I follow on X. And it says in quotations. All right, Baron wants to hook up with Sweet with the Sweeney girl. I need all of you to make it happen, end quote. Right?
Jordy
And it's just, dude, you talk about. You want to talk about eugenics for a second, dude, the genes in that couple, Aaron and Sydney, bro.
David Rutherford
Well, it's kind of funny because you, you know, as you see this, I mean, it's like, what is the big deal? I mean, if I'm going to advertise, I want to catch people's attention. Put someone beautiful front of. Of the camera or whatever. And. And I. You're wired for that, dude. I. I mean, Jordan Peterson does this huge piece in a couple different lectures back in the day where there's science that says, right? How do women, you know, pick who they're going to be? And it's by their physical features and attributes. And the same thing is with men, right? We don't. We gravitate towards this facial beauty and all this. It's. It's built into it. The problem is, is men have an exorbitant way of getting rejected, as do, I think, unattractive other. Everybody unattractive struggles. I know I've struggled a ton. And so, you know, you. But what was interesting is that it kind of crescendoed to where it was Sydney Sweeney. And it started when she went on SNL a couple years ago and she gave her monologue. And, you know, her.
Mike Benz
Her.
David Rutherford
Her chest was literally popping out of her dress and like, the left went insane. Like, who the hell is. This is crazy. This is. Who's this white woman? And why is she putting her boobs and selling and all and all that? And finally, she's a really good actress, you know, and you're like, wait, A minute. And she's funny and. Oh, and I just saw a video of her shooting the other day, which I was like, dude, she was good. Dude, she was running that gauntlet, bro. She was running that gauntlet. And I, I, you know, so here she's emerging. She's emerging for beauty. She's talented. American Eagles stock was not great. It was like 10, you know, before the ad is like at $10 and 66 cents. And hey, man, put that graph up now. I sent you. I mean, you look at that, it's over 13 bucks. And that's in a week and a half. So it appears that American Eagle actually made a good decision. Right? And you can look at the greater impact around all the different societal places we've seen this and what's taking place is that we're no longer shutting people. The thing has become inverted, right? The cancel culture is no longer effective, right? Because when you call Sydney Sweeney a Nazi, it's so stupid. It's so ludicrous. And you know what I'm talking about. You're listening right now. You're going, yeah, yeah, this is stupid. Like, even if you, if you, you know, can't stand the, you know, the over objectification of, of women and listen, I'm, I'm hyper aware of it. I have four daughters. I think about it all the time. You know, but man, you know, to call a person a Nazi and saying that her and a pair of jeans is, Is white supremacy and Nazism and so you're, you're nuts. That's plain and simple.
Jordy
And even if you said it was a bad ad, like, I don't think it was a bad ad, but at least I would say, okay, that's your opinion. That's a fair opinion. That's fine. You didn't like it. You don't like the jeans, you didn't like the pun of the. She has great jeans, whatever. But to go all the way to Nazi, it's like, like it, it's satirical.
David Rutherford
100%. It is. And what I love is they keep doubling down on the thing that has collapsed their own movement. And so, no, nobody's playing a game anymore. And, you know, that's why you have the rise of Shane Gillis, right? You have the rise of, of comedians back and, you know, kill Tony and his stuff and all of these people where it's like, you know what? To hell with you. We're gonna, we're going to tell hilarious jokes. We're going to make fun of people. We're going to, we're going to use derogatory terms. We're going to. We're going to use sex to sell our genes. And you know what? If you don't like it, go pack sand, go get bent. Because your madness, your own insecurity or whatever you want to call it, we're done with it. We're done with it. And so, you know, go pull it over to your little. Whatever thing you want to do to pump yourselves up. Or, you know what? Go get fit, you know, go get dialed in, get skinny, put on a pair of jeans, push your boobs out, and, and, you know, and go have fun in the world, right? And I know I'm going to get crucified. That. Because. Is that what you tell your daughters? What I do tell my daughters is I say, take care of yourself. Be fit, be proud of your bodies, right? And, and don't be afraid, you know, don't be self conscious about it. And you know, we, we look sometimes, every now and then, you know, one of the girls will be like, ah, man, I'm. I'm out of shape. I'm fat. I don't feel good about myself. And we're like, all right, let's go. Go get on that treadmill, right? Go, let's get out there. Let's go get fit. Let's work out. And thank God John is such a wonderful influence on them about body positivity and helping them deal with that. And you're real Nazi about it, but. What'd you say?
Jordy
You're a real Nazi about it. Real health Nazi over here.
David Rutherford
Oh, my God. She does have a. A degree in nutrition, right? So, yeah, she's definitely a health Nazi, right? But. But the, the point of all this is, listen, you're not winding this clock back. You're not shutting anybody down. It ain't gonna happen. And if, you know, so it's just gonna keep growing it. The more you fight it, the more the rest of us are going to fight back. And I just, I love to see that, that thing coming back. I love to see, you know, things that are normal and what's healthy and you know, what makes people. If you don't like it, don't look at it. And if you don't want it, you know, if you want to go ahead and get in your little echo chamber and start calling everybody Nazis, you just look like a. And that. That, that is what it is. So.
Jordy
You know what, though? They're never going to stop. They're never going to stop because they can't, you know, why it attacks the foundation of their whole ideology on the left, which is he going to lift up and actually put on a pedestal the marginalized community. And what marginalizes people more than beauty, right? By definition, only a few people are the most beautiful. Otherwise you wouldn't have the word beautiful, right? And so it's just an invert inversion of, of the whole pyramid, right? You lift up the people who are unattractive, you call the not beautiful beautiful, and it all connects, right? You're just flipping the whole pyramid and it's, it's the same thing. I'll just loop it back to our first story, right? You've inverted the justice system. Instead of a person who committed a crime, then you judge the evidence and then you com. You, you charge that person with a crime. You, you just flip it and you go, what crime do we want? What evidence do we need? Now we can find the person that matches those evidence. And so this is their whole ideology. They're not going to stop because they can't, because that's who they are.
David Rutherford
Well, go for it. First amendment rights. You got all day. Say what you want, but so do we. And we're going to call you an idiot. We're going to call you more. And you know what we're going to call you? We're going to call you communist, right? We'll be Nazis, you be communists, whatever. It's just dumb, all of it, right? Let people do their thing. It ain't hurting you. So shut up.
Jordy

The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show: Episode 42 Summary
Release Date: August 6, 2025
[00:00 - 12:50]
David Rutherford initiates the discussion by addressing recent revelations surrounding Russiagate. He references newly released documents by Tulsi Gabbard, asserting that these documents nullify any claims of foreign interference in the 2016 U.S. elections. Rutherford posits that Hillary Clinton and her associates orchestrated the Russiagate narrative to divert attention from her own email scandals.
"This story quantifiably just dispels any other possibility of actual nefarious interference in the 2016 elections." [00:45]
He highlights an email from Leonard Bernardo of the Open Society Foundation, dated July 27, 2016, which Rutherford interprets as evidence of Clinton's involvement in diverting attention to Russiagate.
"Hi HRC. Hillary Clinton approved Julia's idea about Trump and Russia hackers hampering US elections." [08:15]
Jordy interjects to acknowledge the personal challenges faced by Rutherford, transitioning the conversation back to the main topic.
Mike Benz, a reporter known for exposing what Rutherford describes as the "industrial censorship complex," is cited for his work since 2016 in uncovering alleged conspiracies orchestrated by the Clintons and associated entities.
"Every university in this country was twisted by Russiagate... when there was none, and they knew there was none the whole time." [12:50]
[12:51 - 25:24]
Shifting focus, Rutherford discusses the firing of Erica McEntifar, the Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS) Commissioner, by President Donald Trump. He claims that BLS statistics released in May and June were significantly revised downward, suggesting intentional manipulation to portray a healthier economy.
"They're cooking the damn books to make it look like the economy's healthier than it is." [19:04]
Jordy points out the suspicious nature of these consistent downward revisions, indicating potential data manipulation.
Rutherford further elaborates on the implications of falsified economic data, emphasizing its impact on stock markets, investment decisions, pension plans, and the broader economy. He references economist Brian Westbury, alleging that accurate data revisions reveal an impending economic downfall contrary to optimistic projections.
"If our entire whole thing is based on cooked books, what happens eventually? Well, it's just a house of cards." [20:34]
The discussion extends to federal debt concerns, questioning the whereabouts of trillions in unaccounted funds.
[25:25 - 39:22]
Rutherford praises Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for initiating forensic audits of county budgets to uncover potential financial corruption. He encourages listeners to advocate for similar audits at local levels, emphasizing the importance of transparency in governmental finances.
"If you look at the stock market for the past 100 years... If you price the stock market in gold for the past hundred years, it's flat. So what does that tell you? Did the stock market go up or did the value of the dollar go down? That's the real question." [22:19]
Jordy adds that such audits are essential to identify and rectify systemic financial discrepancies within government agencies.
[39:23 - 41:39]
The conversation takes a turn towards social issues as Rutherford and Jordy critique Sidney Sweeney's recent advertisement for American Eagle. Rutherford nostalgically recounts past advertising standards where beauty and attractiveness were prominently featured, contrasting it with the current trend he perceives as overcompensation.
"When you call Sydney Sweeney a Nazi, it's so stupid. It's so ludicrous." [35:08]
They argue that labeling the ad as "Nazi" is an overreach and indicative of the perceived collapse of cancel culture. Rutherford suggests that such extreme reactions undermine genuine social discourse and lead to polarized viewpoints.
"If you don't like it, go pack sand, go get bent. Because your madness, your own insecurity or whatever you want to call it, we're done with it." [37:17]
In the closing segments, Rutherford urges listeners to take proactive steps against perceived governmental corruption and data manipulation. He emphasizes the importance of engaging with local representatives and advocating for transparency.
"Go buy a pair of jeans, go call out the corruption in government, and don't trust the numbers you look at every day." [40:25]
The episode concludes with promotional content for the show and affiliated platforms, encouraging audience engagement across various social media channels.
