0:33T's and C's apply. All right, second hour of Clay and Buck comes in right
0:38now. Thanks for being here with us.
0:40Calling out the top of every hour, manufacturing delusion, manufacturing delusion, how the left uses
0:45brainwashing, indoctrination, and propaganda against you.
0:48My book took 18 months to write, six months for the CIA to queer.
0:52That's why I've been talking about this forever.
0:53It is finally out today.
0:55You can have it delivered to your home tomorrow.
0:56You can download the audio book now.
0:58Now, well, wait till after the radio show, of course.
1:01But today, I mean, you can download the audio book.
1:03I read it, so it's in my voice.
1:05I had a tiny bit of a cold, so if I sound a little husky,
1:08it's not because I'm trying to sound more literary.
1:09I had a little bit of a cold when I did the recording.
1:13But, you know, Clay and I are two guys who do a lot of media
1:16but also write our own books, so this is my book offering for all of
1:21you. Please go check it out.
1:22Let's beat that John Meacham book.
1:24He's a Trump hater. He's a smug lib, and he has a book out today.
1:27So that's in your hands, my friends.
1:30And, yeah, let's also, I think you'll find some interesting stuff in the book historically.
1:37Like, I talk about really the origin of the secret police as we know it,
1:44Clay. Just like a couple little, you know, leaving some breadcrumbs here.
1:46The origin of the Gestapo and also of the Cheka and the Okrana, which were
1:55different versions of under the Tsar and then post -Tsar Russian Soviet, later Soviet secret
2:01police, started with Ivan the Terrible, Clay.
2:04Ivan the Terrible in the 16th century had a group that was loyal only to
2:11him called the Oprychniki, and they dressed in all black, and they rode around on
2:16black horses, and they had severed dogs' heads that they carried on their saddles just
2:23to scare the crap out of everybody.
2:25And they had total extrajudicial authority to terrorize, kill, torture, loot anybody who they deemed
2:36to be an opponent of Ivan, an opponent of his monarchy, of the regime.
2:43And the Nazis and Stalin, they were very aware of this.
2:47This is history that people forget about, but this was very real.
2:50So anyway, if you like history, because I'm talking about the current stuff, if you
2:53like history, it's in the book, and you'll find some really cool stories.
2:57I threw in some CIA stuff.
2:58I talk about Nigeria. I think I have to share a photo, Clay.
3:02I didn't put it in the book, obviously.
3:03I haven't shared it yet, of me in the Wesley Snipes VIP lounge 20 years
3:06ago in Abuja, Nigeria. Yeah.
3:09It was quite a – in front of an oil painting of Wesley.
3:13It's true. They had a big oil painting they commissioned because he went there.
3:17So that was – and this was one of these things, too, where, Clay, I
3:20was so junior and so young that when I told my office, hey, I'll go
3:24wherever, like, one of the bosses, who was kind of a salty old guy, was
3:28like, all right, nobody wants to go to Nigeria on this minute.
3:31Like, we'll send you. And when I was over there, people found out back home.
3:35They were like – you're like a trainee.
3:37What the hell are you doing there?
3:38You should be in, you know – you should be eating crumpets with the ambassador
3:42in London or something. Like, what are you doing?
3:44It was pretty funny, actually.
3:45They're like, do you want to – are you okay?
3:47Do you want to come back?
3:48You've only been – no, I'm good.
3:49I actually had a really interesting experience there.
3:51I got to do crazy – you know, Clay, it's kind of like – How
3:54long were you in Nigeria?
3:56About six weeks. Oh, that's a pretty long time.
3:59Yeah. Oh, no, I was there, like, for a while.
4:02Yeah, yeah. It was not a quick – it was not a quick visit.
4:06And moving around the country.
4:08So that was my first experience overseas with the agency.
4:12It was pretty fun, pretty cool stuff.
4:14And obviously, Nigeria is – and Trump just – we had missile strikes there recently.
4:18We actually just had, Clay, I think in the last few days, U .S.
4:24forces arriving in Nigeria. Now, they're on a training and assistance mission.
4:29But, I mean, those Delta guys or those SF guys, depending, sometimes, you know, the
4:34training, quote -unquote, is a little more than just training, if you know what I'm
4:39saying. So, yeah. Anyway, they're in Nigeria.
4:42So that's in the book.
4:43And there's some other kind of fun little background stuff that I haven't talked about
4:48before. You know, Afghanistan, Iraq, all that good stuff.
4:52Anyway, Clay, so it all ties in.
4:54And now let's talk Trump.
4:56Speaking of international relations, here is Trump on Air Force One last night.
5:00But AOC was in Munich, and we discussed that.
5:06Was the answer actually – people say it was Kamala -esque.
5:11But was it worse than Kamala?
5:13It's worse. Because Kamala – I think – because she'd never even answered it.
5:16It just turned into words.
5:18I think it's worse because some of the things that Kamala would stumble over –
5:24and everything else were, I can't believe I'm defending Kamala on this, but were questions
5:34that she may not have expected.
5:36And to me, when you stumble over questions that are self -evident, again, we even
5:43tried to give AOC some cover here to some extent.
5:46She went to a foreign affairs event and knew she was speaking there.
5:52If you are going to a foreign affairs event and know you are speaking there,
5:58you should know the 10 most likely things that you're going to be asked and
6:02have a good answer for them.
6:05Getting asked, as you well know, because you just came back from Taiwan, getting asked
6:09what America's response should be in the event that Taiwan is invaded by China is
6:17a foundational question of American foreign policy that has been discussed for generations.
6:24And she's been elected and in Congress since 2019.
6:30So the idea that she doesn't have an answer to that question, I think, is
6:34worse. It would be like Kamala going to a pro -choice rally and not having
6:42an answer ready for what she thinks on abortion.
6:45And I think even Kamala Harris watched that answer and was embarrassed by it.
6:52Let me say this, too.
6:54It must be blowing up on AOC in a negative way because she called the
7:01New York Times last night.
7:02Did you see this? And gave a statement, basically, on what she was trying to
7:10say in that statement. And when you call Pravda and you tell Pravda, hey, I
7:16need to address something that's being talked about here, I think it's evidence that it's
7:21even registering on the Democrat side.
7:24I might have gotten this wrong when I said, hey, if you're a left winger,
7:28you're not even going to hear about this.
7:30I think on social media, partly because Elon has the ability to have a free
7:36marketplace, I think AOC's answer was so bad it was getting attention.
7:39I'll also say this. I think some of AOC's rivals that expect that she may
7:46run for president in 2028 see it as an opportunity to kind of kneecap her
7:53with the donor class and just say this is not someone with the depth of
7:58knowledge to be able to be a forward -thinking leader of the party.
8:03So I think maybe what I miscalculated was how other Democrats out there might have
8:10seen it as such a bad answer that they can curry favor in the quiet
8:15primary that's going on right now where everybody tries to convince people that they should
8:21be the one getting donor dollars.
8:24So I do think it managed to register.
8:27Producer Greg is out today.
8:29But his mix, which we played yesterday, of Miss South Carolina and AOC was very
8:37well received on social media and has been ricocheting around there as well.
8:44So I do think that this kind of blew up on AOC in a way
8:49that she did not anticipate.
8:52And that is the reality there.
8:56And speaking of the – what were you going to hit us with?
9:02So – well, no, I was just going to say, Clay, Trump weighed in on
9:09this. Yes, I saw it.
9:11That's what we were initially going to.
9:12Yes, that's right. Yes, Trump weighed in on what AOC says.
9:15Here we go. Play – we'll play Trump talking to this.
9:18Clip one. I watched AOC answering questions in Munich.
9:22This was not a good look for the United States.
9:25I watched Gavin Newsom answering questions in Munich.
9:29And this was a bad look for our country.
9:31This was a bad – these two people are incompetent.
9:34And at least Hillary's competent.
9:36She's just Trump deranged. She was so deranged.
9:39She is an angry woman.
9:42But I watched the other two speaking and answering basic questions.
9:46Look, Gavin has destroyed California.
9:49And AOC, I never heard her speak very much.
9:51And they started answering questions.
9:53She had no idea what was happening.
9:55She had no idea how to answer, you know, very important questions concerning the world.
10:03I think that here is my thought in general.
10:07And I think it ties in with Gavin Newsom going after Ted Cruz.
10:12Whatever you think about J .D.
10:14Vance, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, I could run through a long list.
10:21They are really smart dudes.
10:24I mean, if you just had a quiz bowl and you got Marco Rubio, J
10:31.D. Vance, Ted Cruz, and Josh Hawley.
10:34And I mentioned those four because I think there's a decent chance they're all going
10:38to run in 2028. Also, I know them personally.
10:41They're really smart dudes. AOC, not very smart, I don't think, Buck.
10:47And every time she answers questions, now she's...
10:52skilled on social media uh and there is a degree of uh of of panache
11:00and talent that is based on that but when you have any depth of knowledge
11:05that's required to analyze issues she doesn't have it and look Barack Obama and Hillary
11:11Clinton you disagree with them I think they're actually pretty smart people I'll give you
11:15another couple of Rahm Emanuel sounds like he's going to run in 2028 you may
11:20or may not agree with him I think he's a pretty smart guy Jasmine Crockett
11:25AOC Gavin Newsom did you see him coming after Ted Cruz because Ted Cruz called
11:31him his story uh historically illiterate did you see that yes of course well and
11:37it just proved proved how historically illiterate uh it's crazy Gavin Newsom for those of
11:44you who didn't see it maybe we have the audio uh or we can pull
11:48it because Ted Cruz a part of the iHeart Network on his verdict podcast he
11:51was walking through Ted Cruz and basically saying like he's historically illiterate he doesn't understand
11:58um the history of federal and state I'm paraphrasing but federal and state power and
12:04how that interaction occurs and Governor Gavin Newsom or his staff grabbed that and said
12:13this is a new low even for Ted Cruz how dare he attack me for
12:18being dyslexic and I'm sorry like we use that phrase all the time we talk
12:25about uh historical illiteracy and how it is so significant in this country that nobody
12:30understands anything based on history and therefore does such a poor job as a result
12:36and Gavin Newsom wanted to be victimized and said that that was an attack by
12:42Ted Cruz on the fact that he was dyslexic first of all did you know
12:45Gavin Newsom was dyslexic I had no earthly idea that Gavin Newsom was dyslexic I
12:51mean no one knows no one knows that Gavin Newsom is dyslexic so so the
12:56the idea even that he was being attacked based on his dyslexia I I would
13:01be stunned if Ted Cruz knows anything about Gavin Newsom's dyslexia but the fact that
13:06Gavin Newsom saw that as an attack again I wonder Gavin Newsom AOC Jasmine Crockett
13:14uh Kamala how actually intelligent are these guys Kamala did Kamala fail the bar exam
13:20the first time in California or am I making that up she failed it I
13:23mean I I don't know I would bet money the answer was yes let me
13:28see look up come did Hillary fail the bar exam you were saying Hillary was
13:33so smart I want to point this out I think she hold on I think
13:36she failed like three times Clay okay I'm not sure how many times she failed
13:39I think what I will give defense as a warrior here is what I care
13:45about is the first time you take the bar because you spend months preparing for
13:49it months studying for it all of those things I took back -to -back she
13:54failed it Kamala failed it the first time passed on her second try to be
13:57fair it's the California bar I think is a is supposed to be a pretty
14:00hard one so I that's not if you know we got to be real here
14:05you fail the bar exam the first time that you take it everybody out there
14:10who is a lawyer knows this you spend months preparing for it studying for everything
14:15else I was going to give people passes if they fail I've taken two bar
14:19exams in my life I'm two for two U .S.
14:21Virgin Islands and Tennessee back -to -back years but the second year that I took
14:26the bar exam I was practicing law full -time so sometimes people fail bar exams
14:33if you're practicing law full -time and trying to remember all of the details and
14:38study for it to pass I'll sometimes give you a pass on that if you
14:43fail the bar exam the first time that you take it I think it's an
14:47indictment of you personally uh just to be clear Hillary Hillary failed she passed the
14:52Arkansas bar failed the DC bar but I bet she was doing full -time work
14:58when she took the DC bar small measure of of credit to Hillary there studying
15:04for the bar exam is hard and it has you can be a some of
15:08the most brilliant lawyers in America right now if they took the bar exam would
15:12fail it because you have to memorize all this random stuff that you will never
15:16actually use once you begin to practice law I think there's a decent chance I
15:22would fail the bar exam if I took it tomorrow because I've been 20 barred
15:26for 20 some odd years but you just have to study and memorize a lot
15:29of things that you would never apply otherwise um failing the first time is an
15:33indictment I think so uh not surprising we're having AI wars here producer Ali I
15:41just typed into Google did Hillary fail the bar and the AI from Gemini says
15:46yes Hillary failed the District of Columbia bar exam on her first attempt in 1973
15:51although she did not pass the DC bar she had a successful legal career and
15:56passed the Arkansas bar so after I don't know the math on this usually and
16:02I don't know the math back in 1970s after like five years they would let
16:06you wave in so a lot of people don't have to take bar exams after
16:10you've practiced full -time for five years or so uh so I don't know what
16:14she was trying to do there we'll do research on what the Hillary bar passage
16:19is but I think Hillary is quite a bit smarter than Kamala.
16:22I would put a lot of money on that.
16:23Do you remember, this is always a fun one, do you remember how everyone was
16:25saying George Bush was so dumb because of his grades at Yale when he was
16:28running against John Kerry, and then they realized that his grades were better than John
16:32Kerry's at Yale at like the same time?
16:34That was great. By the way, look at somebody's, I mean, to be fair, when
16:39you're 50 or 60 and people are looking at your college grades, it's a weird
16:43thing to do, I think.
16:44Look, although get good grades while you can.

19:59We're joined by Congressman Jim Jordan of Ohio.
20:03Congressman, always a pleasure. Thank you for coming to hang out on Clay and Buck
20:07once again. And I know you have some new reading material, especially because having been
20:14a doubter of the 104 -mile -an -hour serve, we know you're not a doubter
20:18of the soon -to -be bestseller manufacturing delusion, Congressman.
20:22So I'm glad you have your comment.
20:23Congrats. Congrats. Thank you. I look forward to reading every single word and learning.
20:31No, I've heard you talk about it and some of the things you cover in
20:33the book, so I am excited about getting the chance to look through it.
20:37Thank you. I talk about the origin of the assassin, Nazari Ismailisak.
20:41They talk about, like, there's cool stuff in there beyond just the political commentary and
20:45some of the, you know, sort of psycho -political analysis stuff.
20:49Anyway, so please go get your copies, everybody, manufacturing delusion.
20:52Congressman, how are we doing?
20:55I mean, you know, we just, I want to take a step back.
20:57It's been a year of Trump, and we were ready to say, you know, the
21:02call to balls and strikes on stuff.
21:04On the big policy issues, everything looks great.
21:06On the immigration issue, things have been phenomenal at securing the border.
21:11Deportation is obviously ongoing. Democrats want to hold up a portion of government funding over
21:16the, like, can you explain what the heck is going on with that?
21:20Yeah, this is the crazy left again.
21:22You know, they did it for 43 days last fall on, you know, on Obamacare,
21:27you know, where everything they told us turned out to be false.
21:29Like your plan, keep your plan, like your doctor, keep your doctor, premiums will go
21:32down. You know, they were 0 for 3, but they want to shut down the
21:35government for 43 days. Same mindset here.
21:37They're saying, oh, unless you change policies on how you go get people who are
21:42in this country illegally, we're going to shut the government down, which is exactly what
21:46they did. But they forget to...
21:47To address, and you guys were talking about this last week and doing a great
21:51job, until they address the sanctuary jurisdiction crazy policies that are out there, I don't
22:00know how you get a handle on it because what's happened in now almost a
22:04third of the country, 18 cities, 11 states, three counties, and the District of Columbia
22:09representing 31 percent of the population of our great country.
22:12So in roughly a third of the country, left -wing political officials tell their local
22:18law enforcement don't work with federal law enforcement.
22:21When you have in your jail, in your detention center, an illegal migrant who's also
22:27been charged with some other crime, when a detainer is sent there from the federal
22:31government saying just, hey, if you're going to release this guy, let us know.
22:34Give us a call. We'll come pick him up there at the jail or at
22:38the detention center. But instead they say, no, we're going to release him to the
22:41streets. And 17 ,000 times that we know of, bad guys were released to the
22:46streets in one year's time, 2025, and many of them went out and did crimes.
22:52I mean, one guy was released, and the very next day he killed an individual
22:55who was under a detainer.
22:57So until we address that, I don't know how you solve this because that whole
23:02policy creates this environment, this framework, where you get the bad things that have happened,
23:07the tragic things that happened like we saw up in Minneapolis.
23:10We're talking to Congressman Jim Jordan.
23:13Congressman, appreciate you coming on.
23:14You just – we had a conversation about this, and I think it's really important
23:18for people out there. Supremacy clause says that the federal government gets to make decisions
23:24on immigration. You and I talked about this, but I want to hammer it home
23:27here. We talked on this program.
23:29You probably came on and talked about it with us.
23:31And I know a lot of people in Texas came on and talked about it,
23:35the fact that Texas wanted to secure their border, and the court said Texas can't
23:40do it because the state cannot make immigration policy the federal government does.
23:45I don't understand, and I think it's a really easy legal argument to tie together,
23:50why Texas couldn't take that act.
23:52And all of these, as you just said, 31 percent of the country, states, cities
23:56and states that are blue, think that they can basically implement their own immigration policy.
24:02I think the courts have to make this determination.
24:05Great point, and we're going to try to help them by passing legislation out of
24:08our committee next week, which would address that fact and say, no, no, federal law
24:12preempts. And if you have a state that says – let's say you've got a
24:15county in California that says, no, we're a conservative.
24:17Our sheriff, we want to work with federal law enforcement in the situation I just
24:20described. We want to work with them.
24:22And they say, well, no, no, you can't do that because of state law.
24:24We want to be able to say, no, if that federal – if that county
24:27sheriff or that county jurisdiction wants to work with the federal government, they can go
24:30ahead. And we will step in and represent them and defend them if, in fact,
24:34the state comes after them.
24:35So that's part of what we want to pass in our bill next week, not
24:38to mention if you're one of these states and you have sanctuary city policies, there
24:43should be some ramifications in the federal funding that comes in certain grant programs to
24:46your state. And then finally, we want to put in the bill as well, if
24:50you're a family or an individual who's been harmed by someone who was let out,
24:56who should have been not released to the streets but released to ICE, if they
25:00let that individual out and they do something harmful to you or your family, you
25:03have a private right of action.
25:05That's the only way I can see that we can address this problem and deal
25:09with what, again, 31 .5 % of the United States population is living under as
25:14we speak. That's how important this is.
25:17And, again, as I said, if we don't address this, I don't know how you
25:20get a handle on all this situation.
25:23How are we doing when it comes to maintaining control of the House?
25:28I know we're early, but we are in a midterm cycle.
25:31How do you see this?
25:32What do you feel like are the top issues?
25:35Obviously, Trump administration is dialing in here on the economy, affordability, but also able to
25:41look at some pretty impressive numbers on GDP.
25:43And, obviously, the stock market has been rocketing up.
25:47So what do you see as the central – is it just going to be
25:49the economy, immigration, election? Is health care going to play a bigger role as we
25:54move along? How do you see it?
25:57In a general sense, I think modern -day campaigns are pretty basic.
26:01Go tell the people what you did.
26:02We ran for the job.
26:03You guys elected us. Here's what we did.
26:05We did what we said.
26:06And you can say we've secured the border.
26:07We've cut taxes, record tax cuts, record time in securing the border.
26:11We gave school choice to parents in the big, beautiful bill.
26:13And we can rattle off all the things we've done.
26:15And then I think it's always important in modern politics to remind the voters what
26:21happens if the left gets back in charge.
26:23Never forget to remind the voters the left is crazy.
26:26It's crazy to defund the police.
26:28It's crazy to say you want to abolish ICE.
26:29It's crazy not to have a border, which is all the things that were taking
26:32place under the previous administration.
26:33It's crazy to shut down the government for 43 days.
26:35It's crazy to have this sanctuary city policy where you release bad guys onto the
26:41street who do harm to people in those communities when you could have turned them
26:45over to federal law enforcement.
26:46So I think we have to remind the voters of that as we move forward.
26:50And then also, underscore, I do think the economy is improving.
26:53We had 4 .3 percent growth last quarter.
26:56Stock markets had 50 ,000.
26:57I mean it's like unbelievable what we're seeing.
26:59So remind the voters of that as well.
27:01But that's what campaigns are.
27:03We're going to say one thing.
27:03They're going to say another.
27:04We're going to have the debate and the people get to decide.
27:07But I feel like we've got a good story to tell, particularly when we also
27:11remind the voters, remember what happens when the left's in charge.
27:14We can go back. back to that if they if they if they won this
27:17midterm i think this important argument you just made um and let me give you
27:21an example that i think you're going to be nodding your head at because it's
27:24just across the potomac from where you are abigail spanberger got elected in virginia she
27:29ran 100 as a moderate as a no -nonsense mom who just wants to be
27:34a normal leader she has gotten in office and in her first month in virginia
27:40they're trying to knock republicans down to one congressional seat they have embraced far left
27:47-wing crazy town agendas tax increases have come across she in one month has demonstrated
27:54that she is actually a radical leftist i like what you said jim because trump
27:58is maybe the most transactional president that we've ever seen in that he said here's
28:04the list of things i'm gonna do this is what i'm gonna run on and
28:08then he got into office and he basically just went right down the list check
28:11check check check check whereas they lie and do the opposite of what they claim
28:16they're going to do great great point and and you could add to that list
28:19of what governor spanberger is focused on too is taking away people's second amendment rights
28:23in the state of virginia so it just she ran as the quote moderate governor
28:27who is you know had a background in the cia and working in in the
28:31military she ran as that individual and gets in and does all the left -wing
28:34things and there you're right on the on the redistricting they're looking to take a
28:38six five six democrats five republicans virginia to ten to one and they got all
28:44this this these spider you know these links coming out from northern virginia all over
28:48the state so yeah that that i think again remind the voters this is who
28:52the left is and the left now controls the democrat party and they will go
28:57for all these all these crazy policies i still maybe we talked about this before
29:02but sarah huckabee sanders a few years ago i use this all the time but
29:05i thought it was well done she gave the response to the state of the
29:08union and her best line was when she said the divide in america today is
29:12normal versus crazy and you can go down the list of all the crazy policies
29:15the left has i think it's always important to remind the voters that that's the
29:19case and when you do the vast majority of voters are common sense people and
29:24they'll elect republicans congressman um to that to that end of normal versus crazy we
29:29started off the show talking about the horrific shooting um in rhode island involving a
29:36clearly i mean you just look at a photo of the guy the guy's deranged
29:39i thought the guy's clearly not yeah okay clearly not yeah kills his own family
29:43the whole thing a horrible horrible situation horrible story we know that there have been
29:47a series of these shooting shootings uh you know high profile mass murder shootings involving
29:53these uh individuals who are psychotic and who are you know self -identify as trans
29:58and the whole thing do democrat colleagues in congress really believe this transgender ideology stuff
30:07on in on the on the whole in general or are they just too scared
30:12of the 10 to 15 percent of the radical left of their party like i'm
30:18just wondering if you can give us some context here for you know does hakeem
30:22jeffries really think there's no difference between a man and a woman that babies are
30:25assigned gender at birth does he believe that if you sit down over tea with
30:29him or coffee or whatever is he like yeah babies get assigned gender at birth
30:32because i want to see congressman jeffrey say that if he believes that yeah i
30:37think the vast majority don't believe that i but i i think again we're back
30:42to the energy in their part has embraced this you know this whole transgender thing
30:50and a host of other crazy policies and that that's that's the energy so that's
30:55where they get the financing that's where they get those uh the campaign bodies it's
30:59dry it's driven by politics so i do think that's the case um again it's
31:04just like time and time again we see these these crazy things happen and and
31:08the left will go defend uh the the transgender policies out there that that seem
31:12to be part of this so um i i don't think they they buy it
31:16but i do think it's driven by the hard left and the politics that are
31:20associated with that good stuff as always have you been watching the winter olympics how
31:26do you think you'd do as a curler i'm fascinated by the whole thing so
31:31i'll click it on and watch a little bit of it and then of course
31:34the controversy you know that was unbelievable like his what his finger i think it
31:38was the canadian i forget what team like his finger touched an extra little pusher
31:42a little spin or something like wow um go go go figure so yeah i'm
31:47fascinated by it but i i actually prefer the sports where they're like like the
31:51cross -country skiing like that is just those people are just tough so i kind
31:55of like watching some of that did you see the video of the guy running
31:58uphill on skis at a six minute mile pace i mean that is one of
32:03the craziest things i've ever seen no kidding no kidding so those guys are amazing
32:07and and the speed skating this uh this uh the stoles guy i think has
32:12uh won so many medals he he's like old school i saw this piece in
32:15the wall street journal he's like old school he went back to the old coach
32:18who just like train hard train harder than everybody else and that's how you win
32:21not so much of you know rest this day and do this and do that

34:37uh okay a little bit of information we have not talked nancy guthrie today at
34:43all because frankly there has not been very much story uh evolution advancement here but
34:51there's been a lot of talk about a glove that they found uh this is
34:55according to matt finn at fox news sheriff nano tells fox news that one glove
35:01recovered about two miles from nancy guthrie's home did not match dna in nancy's home
35:07and also didn't have a hit on codis uh that is buck they did a
35:12dna test they found dna they still have no idea who at least according to
35:17this they still have no idea who was potentially in nancy guthrie's home it is
35:23a little bit strange clay to see how much media coverage kind of ongoing media
35:28coverage this gets with almost nothing happening it's just it's just the speculation olympics people
35:35have no idea it's just people showing up on tv explaining the basics of procedure
35:40which i'll be honest with you you know if you watch enough law and order
35:44and csi you already know about 80 80 of that stuff and then just people
35:48saying here's my theory i i don't know why there's that much fascination with that
35:54speculation but look we just want this woman to be returned home safe and sound
35:58i just from a news coverage standpoint it's remarkable to me clearly this is getting
36:03ratings but people are watching this um you know like a war is about to
36:09start or something i mean there's such a fascination and there's not anything happening women
36:14love true crime i mean that that is that is a 100 data analyzed truth
36:22women not say some men don't too but if you go look at all these
36:27podcasts that are true crime if you go look at all the television uh shows
36:32that are true crime based women are obsessed with crime stories so my bet would
36:39be that if you break down because they don't put on these stories constantly unless
36:45there is some direct connection uh to the ratings right people say oh they're just
36:51throwing like no they're i mean fox news msnbc and cnn are in the ratings
36:56business this stuff rates highly i think it's women women are obsessed with true crime
37:01stories now the problem uh leaving aside the actual crime that took place is what
37:07you're hitting on most true crime stories have evolution there is a plot point you
37:13learn more information as you go along i don't know that we know anything more
37:19really right now than we knew what is it she disappeared about 17 days ago
37:26something like that i don't know that we know much more than what we knew
37:29the day or two after this happened um is there even a primary you're following
37:35this more closely than i am is there even a primary theory right now about
37:38what happened like when i mean the most common theory that is far and away
37:42i think the most common theory has been that savannah guthrie's family was involved at
37:47least online that has been specifically shot down by the sheriff they're saying we have
37:53investigated everybody involved in the family there are zero connections to the family the family
37:59is not involved but when i look online that's been the one that people are
38:03talking about the most again according to the sheriff that is not true uh so
38:07anyway that that glove did not at least on the public commentary changed the trajectory
38:13of this story very much.
38:14When we come back, Texas Senate voting has begun in the primary.
