The US Electric grid is approaching a breaking point as demand soars from data centers and home energy use. Our aging infrastructure can't keep up and the Department of Energy warns that without action, blackouts could surge 100 fold by 2030. The good news? One solution is already here. Propane. It's American made, stored on site and always ready, powering homes and businesses with cleaner, reliable energy that doesn't depend on the grid or the weather. Learn more@probane.com welcome back into the second hour of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show. And let's talk about the judicial situation we find ourselves in in this country, shall we? As you know, I've got a book coming out in January, but the pre order link will be up soon for Manufacturing Delusion. That is the title of the book. Very excited to finally get it out to all of you. It took a long time for me to actually write it because I write my own book or I wrote my own book. I was gonna say books there, but it's the first book and it took quite a while to get it through the CIA process. So there will be some fun Buck old school CIA stories in the book. All cleared, all fine. No risk to national security because it's also been quite a while. But those are in the book as well. So Manufacturing Delusion. I don't think the link is up on Amazon yet, but it will be soon. But I bring it up because one of the chapters in the book is on weaponized law, which I think is very apropos. I think it absolutely is something we need to think long and hard about in this moment as we've seen the weaponization of the justice system really reach its absolute peak against Donald Trump. And I mean, the, the political weaponization, that's something that had been building for a long time. Republicans have been subjected to judicial and prosecutorial harassment for the most obvious partisan reasons for a long time. Really goes back to the Bush era and it goes back to Scooter Libby. I can speak about this one in tremendous detail. I was at the CIA when this whole thing happened. So you can imagine I had a pretty good idea of what was going on. But the Scooter Libby case, which was a case where they brought an investigation about a leak that they knew very quickly had nothing to do with Scooter Libby, but they kept the thing going. Oh, wait, is it up? Is it up, Ali? Is that what you're. It is up. All right. Look at that. Manufacturing Delusion, how the left uses brainwashing, Indoctrination and propaganda against you. You can pre order, my friends. Go check it out. It's a really cool book, I'm going to tell you. I think I. I've got a stack here. I think I read something like 30 books in the research process for it. Now some of those books I did sections of or read sections of to be fair. But it was a lot of reading, a lot of research. Took me a long time, but it's basically how do you make people, how do you make people go crazy in the service of politics, of bad politics? That's the very short thesis and I think you'll really enjoy it. So you can go, please. If you do pre orders, it means they'll probably print more of these things when it actually comes out. So please go pre order on the site. You can preorder the Kindle, I think, whatever. Preorder whatever you can. But there's a whole chapter on weaponized law, because this is not a new thing. But it has been, it has been done in totalitarian societies. That's what I start with. There's this belief that the law is something that, that totalitarian regimes abandoned. That's actually not true. They mutate, bastardize, you know, transform in the service of evil, the law. But they use the law as a tool. Certainly they did in Nazi Germany. And even the Soviets, the Soviets had a constitution and, you know, that was completely ignored. But they try to take the beginnings, the, the foundations of, of legal rationale and use it for their own purposes. I bring this up one, because I wanted to tell you about the book and I'm very excited. I'll get to do like, signings. I'll go hang out with you in places across the country, I think. But again, January is when the book actually officially will be released. But I just hope a lot of you buy it. You want me to write a second book? A lot of you got to buy this one because, man, this took a lot of work. I tell you, this took a lot of work. And a lot of people in this business, I'm not going to name names. A lot of people in this business, they like, pay someone to write their book for them. I just don't agree with that. I don't, I don't like, I don't know, unless you're a former president or something, and everyone assumes somebody else is just writing your ghost, writing your memoir. I write my books. Clay writes his books. Of course, his book Balls is coming out too, so you should buy that. But you got two guys who actually go through that whole process, so it is a true labor of love for us. All right, why am I talking about it today, though? This appeals court has just denied the Trump effort to toss an 83 million dollar judgment in the Eugene Carroll case case that just happened today. There's so much that's wrong here. Okay? There's so much about this that is just. But this is Democrat jury, Democrat City, Democrat, judge, judges, multiple judges now going through this, and they're just waging political warfare through the legal system. Has nothing to do with anything else. And, you know, the judges that are looking at this, they're not applying the law. What they're doing is wrong. What they're doing is grotesque. But let's start with this. $83 million for. For defamation. How do you come to that figure? 83. Can someone defame me and give me $83 million? I'll take it. They can say whatever they want, but they got to give me $83 million. Okay. That is a vast fortune. That is a tremendous. $8 million would be a big defamation. You know, that's like a pretty major. I think Trump got, what, 14 million from CBS News. Check me on that one, guys. I think it was 14 million, something like that. That's for a corporate organization intentionally defaming him. But Trump, $83 million. You just start with that figure and you say this is a scam. I mean, this is absurd. Absurd. How do you. Why not $8 trillion? I just would want to. I'd want to ask these judges. The three judge panel. U.S. court of Appeals for the Second Circuit says the jury's damage awards are fair and reasonable. What planet do they live on? What planet are these people living on? These judges and the jury? They're living on planet I hate Trump. That's it. That's it. Everything else is irrelevant. There is no logical way to get here in 2023. This is the Washington Post. A jury found that Trump had sexually abused Carol, awarded her $5 million in damages. 2nd Circuit rejected Trump's appeal in that case. And then you've got this one. A jury concluded Trump defamed Carroll and ordered him to pay $83 million. Trump's filing has called this a grossly excessive, compensatory and punitive damages. Of course it is. But that's the point, right? That's the point. You know, I always say the process is the punishment. Well, in this case, the price tag is the punishment. And just as we saw with the Letitia James scam. I don't even remember. What was that, guys? Hundreds of millions of dollars. Hundreds of millions of dollars to take from Trump and the organization trying to bar his sons from being able to practice law in this. I mean, sorry to be officers of a company, not to practice law. Officers of the company in the state of New York. What world are these people living in where they think that this is fair or this is just. And that's Just on the scale of the punitive damages here. That alone should be considered laughable to any reasonable person. But remember, Trump Derangement Syndrome is real. It should be classified in the dsm, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders. It should be in the dsm. They should put the trans thing back in the dsm. Gender dysphoria, that's one thing. And then you should have Trump Derangement Syndrome in there, too, because people are just. When it comes to this guy, they are absolutely nuts. They will forget about everything. They will abandon everything. In fact, I talk about this kind of mass hysteria and mass mobilization and the wonderful book Manufacturing Delusion, which you should all go check out and get a pre order of. This is one of the things I write. So there's the weaponized law. There's also just engendering, if you will, or creating mass delusion, mass hysteria. And they've done this against Trump such that you can't even begin to reason with people that are in the grips of this, even though here we are, he's president. Like, look, look at, look at the country. Actually, things are going great as relatively speaking. There's still a lot of problems. But from the perspective of what decisions are being made by this administration, the first year up to September, you know, September 8th today, the first year, it's an AA minus, maybe for Trump, you know, maybe AA minus, can't give an A plus because that's perfect. It's really good. He's done a really good job and the economy is doing very well and the country is doing very well overall. And yet they're still in the grip of Trump Derangement Syndrome. I go to E. Jean Carroll's specific suit here as well. So on the $83 million, this has just been upheld. He's supposed to write her a check for $83 million because he said that, you know, she, I think he said something like, she's not my type and that she's lying. So now if you profess your continued innocence about a sexual assault from 30 something years ago, 30 something years ago, no criminal, you know, no criminal trial, no criminal charges filed, you perform, confess your innocence, you can be sued into, into destruction essentially. Now, well, Trump's got enough money that he can pay this. But. And then the other part of this, that I think everyone forgets, this was only possible because the State of New York changed the statute of limitations for adult sexual assault cases. It was, it would have been three years. This is civil, remember, this is not a criminal. This is Not a criminal thing. This is a civil thing. They extend that. They gave a one year like statute of limitations holiday. And this is, by the way, I'm just going to tell you this is, it's wrong. What they, I think it's unethical to do that. The Trump team brought this up and said that this is, this should be unconstitutional. You're changing the status of the law. And it was used very clearly to go, I mean, to go after Trump here. I know they're going to say, oh, but it was going to be, it was in process beforehand. Eugene Carroll filed her lawsuit day one that this statute of limitations holiday went into effect. But I mean, you could create that statute of limitations holiday in any number of contexts and you effectively negate the whole statute of limitations where you can go to somebody and say it's, you know, if you accuse me of this is what they did to Kavanaugh. Right. If you accuse somebody of something from 40 years ago now and that there's no evidence for, well, there's also no evidence for them to be, for it to be exculpatory because you can't immediately, you can't call the witnesses, you can't bring together. Now, Kavanaugh actually did to some degree because one, that was a complete and utter lie. Unless someone's a moron, they could see through the whole thing. But he also had his, his calendar and there were some things that he could show. But it's really hard to prove. You didn't do a thing to somebody 30 years ago when it's just you saying something and they're saying something. How is Trump supposed to prove that he was innocent of this? How is that supposed to happen? How was he supposed to even make the case? Someone says there's no, there's no footage, there's no proof. There's. Oh, but that. The whole point is that they hate Trump. The whole point is weaponized law. The whole point is that he has to now write an $83 million check to a woman who went on CNN and said, and I quote, some people think rape is sexy. End quote. That is what she said. You can pull the audio on that on cnn. And I remember watching in real time as Anderson Cooper's face just went, okay, now this woman's going to get an $83 million check. She's going to have multi generational wealth bestowed upon her for this whole thing and defamed her. How did he defame her? Trump doesn't agree with what she said. That's defamatory. Look, this. We're going to have to have a big cleanup of the law in this country and of people who are in positions of authority. They have to be removed by whatever processes. This goes, even to the stabbing, the fatal stabbing of this brutal murder of this Ukrainian girl, where the judges and the people. You have to start saying, who allowed this? Who signed off on this? Who were the people in this chain of events, whose job it was to be just and fair and decent with regard to the law. And they just abandoned all of that because they like a person or don't like a person. The judge that let that maniac free, she. She. Some. Something in that guy she saw, she goes, he needs a 15th or a 14th chance. I see something in him that makes me think I'm gonna give him the benefit of the doubt. And the judges in this case, with looking at the E. Jean Carroll case, they go, hmm, I'm looking at Trump and I'm thinking, no benefit of the doubt. Not that there should be any doubt in this, but no, I'm going to go against Trump on this one. Something I see in him that I don't like. That's not the way it's supposed to be. It is not supposed to be left up to the politics of these individuals to determine what is just, what is fair, and what is within our system. And this is why Trump has to. And the people that are entrusted by this administration have to take a strong hand in cleaning up this mess, stopping this madness. Remember, happening again. Just because lawfare against Trump failed in this last election does not mean that the people engaged in it should avoid accountability and consequences under the law. And that is something we should apply to all of this going forward. All right. There was another terrorist attack in Israel this morning. It happened at a bus stop outside Jerusalem when a Palestinian gunman opened fire on civilians, killing six and wounding scores more. It's been more than 700 days since Hamas terrorists first attacked innocent Israeli civilians and taking more than 200 hostage. No one wants the current conflicts in that region to subside more than the average Israeli citizen. Whether it's Hezbollah, the Houthi rebels, the Hamas terrorists, or the nation funding all their efforts, Iran. Israeli citizens are under constant threat of attack. As a nation, we've been supportive and generous, and we continue to be of our ally, Israel and the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is the nonprofit organization that has built an incredible partnership for us to help those in need throughout Israel. Your donations to IFCJ provide critical first aid and emergency services. Now, is your time to help Israel's innocent and most vulnerable. To rush your gift, call 888-488-IFCJ.

All right, welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. And I've got some, some news to dive into with you here. Also going to get some of your Talkbacks and call so 800-282-2882 if you want to chat live here on the show. This is coming in. Let me see, last hour or so from the ap. Supreme Court cleared the way for federal agents to conduct sweeping immigration operations in Los Angeles. A victory for President Trump's administration. The high court conservative majority. Oh, of course they got to say that, right? They got to throw that in there. Lifted a restraining order from a judge who found that roving patrols were conducting indiscriminate stops in and around L. A. The order had barred immigration agents from stopping people based solely on race, language, job or location. Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that the broad order went too far in restricting how Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent carrier. Okay, so the point here is, the point here is a win for Trump at the court. The Supreme Court, thank heavens, because of Trump's first win in the first term. And I will just remind everybody there were some things that needed to be finished here in term two. There was unfinished business from term one, but one place where Trump delivered very well and more than delivered saved us from a fate of who Lord knows, is putting some, some good, well, some decent judges, some very good judges. Depends who we're talking about. But across the federal judiciary and some, some picks on the Supreme Court obviously made a big difference. Right now we would be in a situation where we would be losing the anti Trump resistance. Right. If Trump had lost let's say Hillary had been president. Hello, Hillary. Remember Hillary. If Trump had lost and Hillary had been president, we would be sitting here and they would be rubber stamping all this anti Trump madness. You'd have, you'd have any random Obama, Biden or Hillary, in that case, Hillary appointee. Right? Because assuming Hillary won just those four years, those judges would just be shutting down everything that Trump does. They would be trying to nullify via judicial decree this last election because Trump won that first term. We now are in a place where at least there's some sanity at the Supreme Court. At least the Supreme Court isn't going to allow the outright steamrolling of Trump and his agenda and immigration enforcement. This is critical. This is at the top of the list of things that needs to get done. And you know, we've been talking a lot about, about crime. Criminal justice day on the show. No matter where you live, there's a chance you become the victim of a robbery, a home invasion. The stats just show this two home break ins every minute of the day on average. It's critical that you are able to protect yourself and you have the right tools to do so. You can get them from our friends at Sabre, the number one pepper spray brand trusted by law enforcement. Sabre is spelled S A B R E and the website is saber radio.com look, we've got one of pretty much all their products here in this house. Clay and Lara and his family, they've got Sabre products. These guys are trusted. They know what they're doing. They've been at this for 50 years. Non lethal self defense. That really works. From Sabre. Their pepper gel launcher is the best. Go get the bundle right now. You'll see. Go to sabre radio.com that's sabre radio.com youm'll save 15% there. Or call 844-824-SAFE. All right, welcome back in everybody. Lines open, 800-282-2882. I'm going to get some talk facts here and let's do it, shall we? B.B. jerry who listens on 710W O R but he's in Westchester, New York. Play it. Hey, Buck, Jerry from Westchester, New York here where the the gun laws are slightly less draconian than in the city. But you know, as an example of the left's perverse relationship with gun laws, you know, I have a Benelli M4 automatic semiautomatic shotgun and if I put a collapsible stock on and get caught in New York state, I'll go to prison. You know Ruin my life. Yet someone can commit a crime with a gun in the city and be released the next day. Yes, that is true. What you're talking about is, is the reality, in fact, New York, where you see these people who are released because no cash bail, right? And the jailbreak bill that Cuomo, supposedly the savior of New York from Mamdani, by the way. Mamdani's gonna win. Sorry, I love New York. I still have family in New York. Mamdani's gonna win. It's just. This is just gonna happen. But Cuomo pushed that jailbreak bill and hat tip. My Good friend on 710 WR, Mark Simone, for reminding New Yorkers and people in the tri State area about that, that it was Cuomo who was the, the, you know, the brain, so to speak, behind that disaster. But in New York for it, for a time, they had the. They had a practice of. So I've traveled before with my gun and, or with a handgun. And there's this whole thing where you have to check it in A lot of you, you all know this, but in case anyone doesn't know those, you have guns, know this. You check it in at the counter beforehand. Like it's skis, you know, like it's a special luggage. Even though it's this little case, you have to show it to them. They take it, and then you go to the next place. And then they, you have to go to the special luggage area so they know that you have a firearm. Even it's kept in the luggage area of the plane, you obviously can't take it on board with you. In New York, there were a number of cases. This is a true story. Where people whose flights were diverted to New York for weather were arrested and threatened with prosecution for illegal handgun possession. Now, that's because you can fly to a state, you know, if you fly to Florida and you're from, I don't know, just Alaska, where I know they've got pretty friendly carry laws. If you fly from Alaska to Florida, Florida is like, oh, you're allowed to have a gun. You're allowed to have a gun. You know, enjoy. Here's your gun. There's no problem in New York, you have to be a permitted individual. In New York City, where the airports are LaGuardia and JFK, you have to be a permanent individual or else it's a felony. So they arrested people diverted to the airport. This is true. You can check this out to the airport for weather reasons, just to make it. Make a stand about, you know, illegal guns. Now I think in those cases, they ended up not actually taking them all the way through to prosecution, but it just goes to show you the mentality. I know somebody who was arrested for having a registered, but then the Registration lapped. Elapsed 20 gauge shotgun in New York City for bird hunting. Okay? It was, you know, like a really nice gun from what I remember. And the guy would go out and do, you know, bird hunting, skeet shooting, whatever, with a 20 gauge, not even a 12 gauge. Arrested, arrested. Had to work it out. You know, it had been registered, but it had lapsed or some problem. This is the kind of stuff that they do. But if you're a gang banger, if you're a guy who's, you know, on arrest number 20, the DA is like, what are we going to do? Actually incarcerate this person? Let him go. Maybe he'll show up to court eventually. This is. This has got to stop. This is crazy. Let's do. Trent from Denver listens on Freedom 93.7cc. Hit it.

I love the idea. I love the idea. Can we get there? A lot of people in this country voted for Kamala. Just remember that. A lot. A lot. Kamala Harris. And they would do it again. Now, I understand midterms, Congress. My point is merely, there's a lot of bad judgment out there on politics. And people, they. They have this ideological and tribal affiliation with being a Democrat. And what the Democrat party actually stands for today, what it has become does not matter to them because it is about their own personal branding. Oh, I'm a good person. I care, you know, free Palestine. What do you care about? You think the Palestinians, you think these people that are all whining about how we got a free Palestine, you think the Palestinians care about them or would care about them? This is. It's all just for show. It's all just a game to a lot of these individuals. And this has been pointed out by many others and many, many times over. But I'll just say it. You know, there's such a close correlation between people who become obsessed telling everybody how much they care about issues that they can't do anything about and that don't have any impact on their life whatsoever and people that want to ignore that they're not being a good husband or wife, son or daughter, colleague, neighbor, parishioner, whatever. They don't want to deal with the things that they could actually do things about in life that would matter. I know this is every lib that you know, right? That are, you know, putting the, putting the Ukrainian flag up and that put the black square up after BLM and that told everybody they double masked and that say they wish they could pay higher taxes, but they don't. You can give whatever you want to the government. There's like a little form when you do your taxes. If you do your taxes, you can give whatever extra you want. It's like, it's like when they do a mandatory 20 tip in a lot of restaurants in south beach now they do this and then they have a little thing that's additional tip. And a lot of people are like now it's one thing if you want to do that, right? But it always, you have to click out of the additional tip now. So like what a 30, 40, 50 tip? What, what is, what is acceptable? I'm actually somebody, I just want them to just start like, just give me the bill that you want, the money that you want and you know, stop asking me to do math. Really. Like I don't want to do math anymore when I'm out at restaurants anyway. I think that we have reached a point where people are seeing increasingly that the Democrat party cannot be trusted with power at all. And they have gone insane, really. And I really mean this. I would not have made this argument certainly in the early 2000s the same way when there was, there was broader agreement on some things. But in the last 10 years things have really gone, really gone off the rails. But yes, to impeach judges to do this I think would be a great goal to have. But it's very complicated because there are these people who would rather pretend that they care about. About it used to be a long time ago, right? The snide comment was, oh, you just want to save the whales, right? You know, I actually love animals, so saving the oils probably be a nice thing to do. But the point is, or save the rainforest or save the whatever. But you're not actually doing anything to do anything. These people that are saying this, right, the Greta, what's her name? Greta Thun. Thunberg. Thunberg, who is now taking up Palestine. Of course she. It was climate change, now it's Palestine. She is a perfect avatar for this malady on a global scale. But take it all the way down to the individual ok, this is, this is unfortunately the psychological condition of the modern Democrat, leftist, however you want to describe it in America. Communist. I love that one because it upsets them. So of course I should say it. But the singular, the singular thing that you have in common for so many of them is this desire to tell everybody how much they care about things that don't matter so they can avoid having to take accountability and responsibility for things that do matter. And once you start to apply that logic to all this. It's true on the crime issue as well. It's true on the crime issue. Oh, you know, I think we should have more social justice and I think we should have, you know, 30th chances for violent offenders. And Ellison. Well, hold on a second, hold on a second. You know, are you doing anything to make your neighborhood safer? Are you, are you advocating for now? I'm talking about people who say that, you know, who say, let's say, live in Malibu and they're advocating against Trump in D.C. or they're advocating against what Trump wants to do in Chicago. You say, you know, what, what? Oh, you mean you're safe to begin with. So you're safe to begin with. So you pretend that you care so much about what's going on with other people and are making them less safe in the process, but it makes you feel good. It makes them feel good. I wish we still had the term limousine. Limousine liberal was such a, was such a nice pejorative. But limousines aren't really a thing anymore. I was always kind of anti limousine. I only wrote in them a couple of times in my life. Like special occasion stuff, you know, going to prom, right? People get. We get a limo to go to prom. They weren't that comfortable. It was kind of a funny thing.

You're in a limo, right? It was always a. And you realize you're sitting sideways or sometimes back to the. And the seats weren't very comfortable. So they've changed all that. But limousine liberal was a, Was a great. And they always had that. Did anyone ever drink, you guys know what I mean? They always had the. Was it whiskey or. I don't know what, whatever liquor and those little glass decanters or whatever you call them that would. Did anyone ever drink that stuff? Every limo I was ever in, I looked at that stuff, I was like, is that just apple juice? What is that? Of course, I would never drink, especially underage. But yeah. So this is something that we're now seeing more and More from the Democrat Party. And they keep digging deeper into all of this. And I think that it's going to become very apparent to people that what this. What this talkback gets to is we just. We just need to do everything possible to keep these people out of power because they make everything worse. They don't have good ideas and they're not helpful. And when they're in charge, bad things happen to people. Truly bad things happen to people. So we got to work with everything that we have to make sure that it doesn't happen. I mean, think about how much better the country is right now than if we had a president Kamala Harris. That could have happened. I know we think now, oh, Trump, you know, kicked her butt and he won so much, which is true. But it was a closer thing than it should have been. Much closer thing than it should have been. All right, look, every. You know, you know what I did yesterday? I watched the US Open and a true story. My amazing wife, amazing wife Carrie. So fantastic. Great mom, great wife. She just decided to surprise me, surprise my brother, who was watching the US Open with me with wings. She made homemade wings. They were like Korean sticky barbecue wings with the chicken wings that I just got in my box from Good Ranchers. And these wings were absolutely delicious, by the way. Man, they were good, Good Ranchers. Their proteins are from American ranchers and farmers. No antibiotics, no hormones, no seed oil. It's kind of food you want to feed your family. It's what I just ate yesterday. My brother and I and Carrie got in on you. We polished off those wings. But I've also got fantastic bone in New York strips. My box just came on Friday. My Good Ranchers box just arrived. I look forward to it every month. I have, like, a little place in my freezer that I clear out. I mean, it's a whole shelf just for my good ranchers. It's a good rancher shelf. You know, different. Different shelf for ice cream, obviously, but my good rancher shelf is where I keep my proteins. It's so delicious. The chicken, the beef, the pork, top quality stuff. And I go through it every. I eat it all every month, and I get my box every month. We subscribe to Good Ranchers in this house.

Want to remind you all to drink some Crockett coffee, my friends? I've got my overmountain club mug in my hand right here, Crockett Coffee. And you could subscribe. We got mushroom coffee that if you've never tried, it's really cool. But also light roast, medium roast, whole bean, ground bean, K cups, all that stuff. We're actually working on a new exciting product now too, because we're trying to do more and more stuff. And part of our mission is to be sponsors on various conservative shows and podcasts out there, which we're already doing. And we're going to be doing more and more of that so that we can help the conservative economy flourish in media. Because telling you those Madison Avenue ad buyers, and they're still, we're still blocked out on that stuff, but whatever, you know, we keep fighting through things. It's how we are. It's always been, it's been good, I think as a conservative to be in the opposition, to be the counter, the counter regime, the counter revolution, since I was, I don't know, 14 or 15 years old. So pretty used to it at this point. But yes, I think something interesting was said by a lot of things actually interesting said by Trump at the Museum of the Bible speech. But he spoke about, and this is cut 31 team, he spoke about something that we should speak about more frequently. And I think in particular this week, people are going to want to talk about it. Play 31 and I created the first ever Department of Justice task force to eradicate anti Christian bias. And for those people that are a little bit naive or not well read, there is a tremendous anti Christian bias. We don't hear about it, we don't think about it. You hear about anti Semitic, but you don't hear about anti Christian. They have a strong anti Christian bias, but we're ending that rapidly. I will tell you, it's a whole. We're in a much different world today than we were one year ago. Now this has been real in the universities and for a long time. I think William F. Buckley wrote God and Man at Yale. I don't even know how many, how many decades ago. The anti Christian approach of these institutions, these universities is something, you know, the anti Semitism which ties very much into the Israel, Palestine situation that you've seen a lot of obviously since October 7th. But the anti Christian sentiment coming from the top of the administration all the way down, particularly at these so called elite schools. It's been very real for a long time. But here's what's so critical about what Trump is doing. He is taking the approach that we cannot allow institutional capture to just continue as it is. Because what you have is a situation where even when Democrats lose elections, they keep a lot of their power because they have been intentionally seeded into, integrated into the HR departments and the university admissions committees. And you go to all these places. It reminds me of the, this, you know, I learned about the first time I really read about Soviet political officers was on the Hunt for Red October, which is, I still think the best Tom Clancy book. Because, you know, I'm a big Clancy fan. Tom Clancy fan. And it's probably why I joined the CIA. Is Tom Clancy books pretty remarkable to think about that in retrospect. Clancy and Crichton were the two authors that I read in grade school that I really, really liked. And I was just, just tearing through those books. But you remember from the Hunt for Red October, there's this little person whose job, and this was true in Soviet society, whether it was in a corporation or on ship, there was a person who was the political officer and they were just there to, to shout down wrong think and to punish wrong think from anybody. And we've had that in the, well, in the PC and DEI era of America. There are people who exist in these institutions who are there to punish wrong think. And by the way also to attack enemies of the leftist regime, including Christians, including believing Jews, right people that are not secular leftists of Jewish faith. Like this has been the move, this has been what they are doing and Trump is working to set this right and it is the first time any Republican has really made this part of the mission. It is absolutely essential. I've got another this is a troubling one. Another story to talk to you about a crime score that will tie into that murder of that young Ukrainian girl. We'll talk about it in a couple minutes.
