Time Text
Buck Sexton here in for Rush Hour 3 on the EIB, Open Line Friday, of course, because it's Friday.
800-282-2882.
I want to talk to you about, I said immigration, I kind of meant ISIS and immigration into Europe, and then maybe some other immigration as well as other topics.
I realize I have a lot more show planned for today than I actually have time to cover.
This tends to be an issue.
But first, I just want to say there is some breaking news that I'm seeing here on Fox that there has been a shooting at Dallas Love Field.
I have no further details right now other than that, but there's some sort of a shooting reported on Fox News right now at Dallas Love Field.
If I get any more information on that, I will certainly share it with you here.
That's all we've got to go on right now, and it's being obviously very closely monitored.
So there's another story about a terrorist cell that didn't really get very much attention, and I wanted to talk to you about it for a few minutes here because, well, one, there are a lot of concerns that ISIS cells, specifically in Europe,
although, as you know, there's plenty of reason to believe that ISIS cells would be able to penetrate our defenses here as well and get into the United States and engage in an attack similar to what has been seen in Paris and in Brussels and elsewhere.
But there was a series of arrests that occurred just earlier in the week, or was it last week?
They only knew about this terror ring in Germany because of a walk-in to a police station in France.
So there's a Syrian man in France goes in to speak to the French police, and he says that there are a number of individuals who are close to the sort of operational attack phase in Germany, and there was a cell that had at least three people who were arrested last week.
It's believed, by the way, that those three may be part of a I'm sorry, this Nude walked into the Paris police station in February and they've made these arrests.
But it's believed that they've just made the arrests.
That's the sort of the news, the recent news portion of this.
It's believed that between 10 and 20 people might be a part of this sleeper cell overall.
And there's also a sense that some of these it is believed that some of the members of this cell, the cell that could be planning mass casualty attacks in Europe, they used the migrant flow.
A few of the men who were detained in the last week were spending time in refugee camps.
Two of the three suspects had been living in refugee camps before their arrests.
So this is interesting and unnerving and anxiety-provoking for everybody, for our European allies and friends.
And also goes to show you that ISIS is still planning.
We keep thinking of ISIS in the context of whether they'll be able to hold on to Fallujah for a few more weeks or how long they'll be able to hold on to Mosul.
External operations, external terrorist plotting against us is something that is ongoing with the Islamic State, as well as against Europe, obviously.
But in the case of Europe, it seems to be a more imminent and a much harder to contain threat because they've allowed over a million refugees from primarily Middle Eastern countries to enter and stay.
And the vetting process that goes, when you're bringing in that many people, think about what the vetting process is really like, how thorough it could actually be, what kind of resources it would take for these European governments to, and forget about resources.
How would you even really do the due diligence?
Somebody says that my house was burned down.
I lost everything I had.
The Shabiha, Assad's thugs, killed most of my family, and I just got here with the shirt on my back.
Well, what do you say?
We're going to fingerprint you?
Okay.
Well, that doesn't really mean anything.
So this is a major concern that the Europeans have here.
And it also goes into how when you roll up a cell like this in Germany, and some of us had been saying, I remember months ago saying that I was worried that Germany was next just because of the refugee flow being used for ISIS infiltration.
When you roll up a cell like this, it's never people don't think of it as, oh, gosh, this was a near miss.
We're lucky.
We really got to pay attention.
They go, yeah.
It's sort of a minor news item, even when they're saying they think there might be 10 to 20 actual cell members at large, and there's some report or some concern, I should say, reported that they're trying to attack a major European soccer tournament this summer, and that's what they're waiting for to get maximum attention and obviously create as much fear and chaos as possible in Europe.
But this is one of those stories that much of the media just doesn't really like to touch or talk about because it does mean that you will recall some months ago, right after the Paris attacks, people said, well, what if the refugee flow is being used to infiltrate terrorists or has been used to infiltrate terrorists into Europe?
ISIS-trained, hardened jihadists into the heart of Europe, and they can go to any cities they want and they can plot and train and plan.
Well, maybe not train with like AH-47s, you know, firing into berms and building IEDs out in the open, but they can certainly get their hands on weapons and if they've already trained, they could create a mass casualty attack.
And looking at this now, this has happened.
I mean, one, there have already been mass casualty attacks in Paris and in Brussels, but also that the infiltration that has occurred is so widespread.
The European security and intelligence services have too much on their plates as it is.
And even if they know that someone's bad, keeping them under 24-hour surveillance is an incredibly labor-intensive, manpower-intensive operation.
And they can't do it with that many people.
They just simply don't have the personnel.
So even if they know somebody might be an ISIS terrorist and might be plotting and could be involved in either procurement of material and explosives or whatever the case may be, is just sort of a facilitator or perhaps an active and operational member of the cell.
While that's all going on, these European services are sitting around and they're like, we got so many of these.
What are we going to do?
You can't just lock people up because you think they might have done something wrong.
Other countries do that, but in Europe, they're still trying to avoid that, although give it some time.
If there are enough terrorist attacks, they might change their security posture pretty dramatically.
As they have in France, by the way, we're also not very much reported after Paris.
They were shutting down mosques left and right and going into them and seizing material from them and everything else.
That doesn't get reported in this country because we're supposed to be told, it's a one-off.
It just happened.
Bad things happened.
There are mass shootings here, too.
It has nothing to do with anything.
But it's also, I think, worth focusing on this for a few moments because we're often told in this country, you hear this narrative coming from the left all the time, that terrorism is an overhyped problem.
Why do we spend so much time talking about ISIS and the Islamic State and the threat from jihadists?
And you'll even see truly moronic analysis from some leftist sites out there that will talk about how, well, no, the real problem is like the lone white male gunman.
That's the real threat to peace and stability and democracy in the world, right?
And they'll start to try to crunch some numbers.
Or they'll say, you know, a majority of terrorism in this country is not committed by jihadists.
It's committed by, you know, whatever, either right-wing hate groups or eco-terrorists.
And all you have to do is actually look at the numbers and what you see is that, well, yeah, I mean, if you consider lighting a trash can on fire and saying, save the whales terrorism, then sure, a majority of terrorism is not jihadist related.
But the moment you look at lethality and also attempts to create massive lethality, kill dozens, perhaps hundreds, maybe even thousands of people attempts to do so, nothing even comes close to the jihadist menace.
It is far and away number one in the category.
And this is also like when you see analysis of terrorist acts in this country, casualties, and they start, they go, well, excluding 9-11.
Well, if you exclude 9-11, then our entire security posture vis-a-vis the terrorist doesn't make any sense, does it?
Why do we have all this?
Why do we go through all these processes?
If you exclude 9-11, why do we have the TSA?
Why do we have the National Counterterrorism Center, the Director of National Intelligence, the DNI, all these things that were created post-9-11 and all the different policies and procedures we've put in place, the billions and billions, really, when you add it up, it'll be trillions of dollars that have been spent either trying to fight jihadists abroad or prevent them from hitting us here at home.
And so then to just look at the casualty figures or look at successful terrorist attacks in this country, absent that context, yeah, sure, you could make this sort of case.
But it's just like what's going on right now in Europe.
They'll say, well, it's been a while since there's been a successful attack.
Each time they have to roll up a cell, you know, we're essentially, they're getting, to some degree, they're getting lucky.
In this case, it's because of a walk-in.
Otherwise, you probably would have had five or ten or who knows how many more of these either ISIS-affiliated and trained or just ISIS-inspired jihadis running around mowing down men, women, and children with AK-47s.
But wait, Europe doesn't allow guns.
Of course, they can get their hands on guns because bad guys don't care about laws about guns and building homemade explosives and doing all of this.
We just missed, we just made that, or they just made it not happen in Europe.
It is likely that that would have happened had they not gotten this tip.
And it is also likely, I think, that the media here doesn't really like to talk about this very much because they think they have a duty to keep the fear, not of, it's not even just the fear of ISIS in check, because I think that generally speaking, they'll talk about ISIS because it gets people's attention.
And it should get our attention because we're spending all this time and effort and resources, unimaginable amounts of resources if you really think about it.
I mean, every time you're in line at the TSA, just thank the jihadists for your delay and for the intrusion into your life and the massive expense of all of this.
But as you look at this, yeah, there's that concern.
There's the concern about tax.
There's also the concern that your son or daughter or you yourself listening may have to go back over there and go try to pull out this jihadist cancer at its base, at its core.
So it's understandable we would focus on that.
But one of the problems with reporting on ISIS attacks that were averted is it reminds us of all this.
And in this case, media doesn't want to talk about how, yeah, they've used the refugee flow to get in there.
You mean that having open borders can make you more vulnerable from a national security perspective?
You mean that that's actually a tactic that our worst, most bloodthirsty and maniacal enemies will use to hit us?
If it's happening in Europe, could it happen here?
You mean this is a real problem?
That's what people would think if this was reported on as it happens.
But instead, it's sort of a page C7 news item of another cell got rolled up in Germany.
We got this under control.
They got lucky that they rolled up this cell in Germany.
And we have to be lucky all the time.
They only have to be lucky once.
They are continuing to plot.
They are continuing to train.
They want to hit us.
And despite the claims of this administration and others as well, this is not a threat that we have been able to neutralize or keep under control or anything else.
800-282-2882, Buck Sexton here, Info Rush.
A lot of more coming.
Stay with me.
Buck Sexton here, Info Rush today on the EIB.
It's a pleasure to have with us one half of the filmmaking team, Stephanie Howard, who was involved with the making of The Weight of Honor, along with her husband Roger.
She spent the past four years working on this documentary.
It's about a topic that doesn't get much attention, that of caregivers for wounded vets.
Stephanie, thank you very much for calling in.
Hey, Buck, thanks for having me on, really and truly.
So please tell us a bit about this project.
What does it cover?
Tell me about the subject matter.
Well, the caregivers are the people who are sort of the unsung heroes behind the vets who we see are coming back wounded.
And some of them have, of course, physical wounds or emotional wounds or both.
And these people are the family.
They're part of the families.
They're the ones whose lives are continually having to change and adapt.
If you have, say, someone who comes back with wounds of amputation, there has to be a lot of cleaning and wound care.
If you have someone who's come back with TBI, sometimes those traumatic brain injury, sometimes those injuries don't show up for years.
And these families really don't get the recognition that I think they deserve.
And I think most people who see the film will agree with me.
Their lives are as different as those who are wounded.
How did this project come to be?
What was sort of the genesis of it all?
Well, it's rather interesting.
I've been asked that a lot.
About five years ago, I attended an event for wounded warriors and our wounded vets who came here to Santa Clarita, California at the request of another nonprofit organization.
And they went and they spoke in schools and that kind of thing.
And I met some of them, and they were just so inspiring.
So my friend who organized that event was having coffee with me a few weeks later, and I said, I know there's a documentary here, and there is a great story here, but not to take anything away from the vets, there's something else.
And I just don't know what it is.
And she said, well, no one has done anything about the caregivers.
And I said, the nurses and doctors?
And she said, no, the people who are family members who are taking care of these guys, and most of them are men, once they are released from the VA and they come home and they're outpatients.
So I started researching that and found all kinds of information and all kinds of families and individuals who are going through this.
And statistically, it's huge.
There are five and a half million caregiver families in the United States.
Over 1 million of those families are from post-9-11 wars.
And it boggles the mind to know that these people are within our population, and yet these families are rather invisible to us.
Now, what are some of the things that, you know, you talking about the numbers here, people that want to help?
I mean, I assume you're making this documentary to raise awareness.
Is there somewhere people can go?
Is there something people can do to help the families, as you say, to help the caregivers of these wounded veterans?
Well, we have some of the resources on our website.
The other thing is this.
We have been self-funding this film for the last four years that we've been shooting.
And when I say shooting, filming, our goal is to bring this information to a civilian audience.
If we do that, we need to raise some money to finish it.
And we will also have information there and available as part of the film.
But for now, people can go to the website, theweightofhonormovie.com, and we have a page of resources.
And people can click on those.
They have direct links and they can go from there.
By no means is this an exhaustive link.
Is this an exhaustive list of resources?
But it's a start.
So people can go to the Weight of Honor movie.
And when would this be, if you do get the funding you need, when would this be released?
Or when would people be able to see the full documentary?
We want to have it finished by the end of the year, which is why the fundraising is rather critical right now.
And then we would have it available and it would be out there by next spring.
We would do some theatrical runs where people could go and see it in a movie theater or we would be available for screenings to bring the movie to different organizations or to different communities.
And it will also be streaming.
I'm not sure if that will be on Amazon or on iTunes or what.
We have to make those deals yet, but we also hope to have it on our website as well as DBDs would be available.
All right.
Stephanie Howard, she is part of a filmmaking team with her husband, tackling the issue of those who are caring for wounded vets once they come back home.
The movie is The Weight of Honor.
She's asking for help with it.
If you can, go to theweightofhonormovie.com.
That is the website.
Stephanie, we appreciate you calling in, and we appreciate you dealing with and bringing awareness to this very important issue.
Thanks, Buck.
Thanks very much.
Hey, have a good weekend.
You too.
Thank you.
800-2822882.
We can take some calls on whatever you've got before we close out the show here coming up in a few minutes.
Buck Sexton, InfoRush Limbaugh today on the EIB.
And we're going to continue with a little more discussion of immigration.
Stay with me.
It's Buck.
I am back.
Please download my podcast.
Go to theblaze.com/slash Buck Sexton for more.
Also follow me on Twitter if you happen to be a Twitter person at Buck Sexton there or on Facebook as well.
You can follow the page.
I only post good things, things you'll want to read, things you want to know about.
It's Open Line Friday, so I feel like that's a good time to take calls.
Carla in Florida, what's up, Carla?
Well, first, I want to say I am an avid supporter of Donald Trump.
And the one reason, and there are many others, it's because of his stance on immigration, on illegal immigration and bringing more Muslims into this country.
Look at France.
You mentioned it earlier.
France, Germany, they're blowing up because of Muslim immigration.
And these Syrian refugees, not one person has tried to explain how they're vetting these people.
And Hillary Clinton wants to bring more in at $20,000 a pop.
And here's the problem.
People in America, I will be called a bigot.
Fine.
If you want to call me a bigot, because I say, hey, Muslims are the people, or I'm sorry, but it is Muslims that are trying to blow us off the face of the earth.
I'm an infidel.
But then I'm told I can't.
A portion of a subset of Muslims.
Well, all right.
Now, Buck, you just made my point because I didn't start off the conversation by saying, not all of them, of course.
Well, of course, not all of them.
But will Saudi Arabia take these refugees?
Is Iran taking any of these refugees?
Is Jordan?
No one.
And then liberals will tell me that I'm a bigot.
Well, I mean, I've actually been to the I've been to the refugee camps in Jordan, so I can tell you that they are actually taking a lot of refugees.
They've taken a lot of time.
Jordan's taking a lot of refugees.
Turkey's taking a lot of refugees, too.
So if we're going to keep it real here, Carla, I've got to keep it real with you.
There are other countries that have taken refugees.
We've actually taken very few Syrian refugees.
I don't even know the numbers off the top of my head, but it's very, very small.
Europe has taken a massive number of refugees.
Look, if all of a sudden the administration here or a Hillary administration said we're going to take in a million refugees to the Middle East with almost no vetting, yeah, that's insane.
And there would be some terrorists who would infiltrate in that number.
Could we take 10,000?
Could we take 20,000?
These are the sorts of numbers that have been discussed.
Would the vetting be perfect on them?
No.
Have there been refugees in the past from Muslim countries?
And one specifically, there was a case of, I believe, an Iraqi refugee.
I think the case was in Kentucky, was convicted on federal support to terrorism charges.
So that's happened before.
But we're talking about much smaller numbers in the context of refugees coming into this country.
And Trump has also, as I understand it, and you're a very avid Trump supporter, as you say, so you can tell me if this is incorrect.
He's walked back his Muslim ban comment to being, well, it was something do I consider to my understanding as the latest is, well, you know, we just need to make sure we don't let sort of terrorists in or something, right?
Or where does that stand now?
I know he's softened the, he's softened the tone on it.
That much is for sure.
Well, here's the deal with Donald Trump.
Mr. Trump will say what everybody else is thinking.
The same way with the Mexican judge.
Here's the deal.
Let me ask you this, and I want you to be perfectly honest.
When you're sitting in an airport and you're waiting on a plane, and let's say there are 10 Muslim men ready to get on that flight with you, can you honestly or can anybody else honestly say to me, oh, I don't think anything of it.
Or does your dander come up a little bit because it's Muslims that want to blow us off the face of the earth?
They want to destroy Israel.
Carla, I'm going to disappoint you here, but actually, actually, I've flown on lots of, I've flown on planes actually where I was pretty much at least the only visible or the only obviously non-Muslim passenger.
So no, it doesn't actually make me, that alone would not make me uncomfortable.
I mean, I think the percentage of Muslims who are pro-Sharia, something that Pew has done a lot of polling on around the world.
And it is very, it's higher than we'd like it to be in many countries, right, that believe in Sharia above any man-made law.
That's concerning.
But once you start whittling it down to the number that are actually jihadists who would harm people, blow up a plane, do that sort of thing, it's a very small percentage.
Now, a very small percentage of 1.6 billion people or so is still a pretty large number, but the numbers are such also that I think it's going too far.
And I can't be irresponsible and unfair and allow things to sort of float out there like, well, if I saw a few Muslims getting on a plane, it makes me worry.
The answer to your question, Carla, is it doesn't make me worry.
But then again, I also recognize that the jihadist threat to America is the primary ideological terrorist threat that we face by a large factor.
So it is a complicated discussion.
I appreciate that you're a Trump supporter and you think that he's trying to speak honestly about this stuff.
To be sure, I'm someone, Carla, who goes on TV and says after these attacks that it's obviously a terrorist attack.
I get called a bigot for that.
I've been called, I've had people tell me to my face that I'm white and non-Muslim, so my opinion on the matter doesn't matter, which is a pretty appalling thing to be said on TV.
Of course, you can say that to me or someone can say that to me, and there's no, that's not a problem.
If I had said anything sort of similar to somebody else, I probably would have been banned from television for some period of time.
The fact that I served in Iraq and Afghanistan, worked with counterterrorism services in my previous capacities at the NYPD and the CIA, that doesn't seem to matter to some people.
They just want to tell a story, and the story is that disaffection and dissatisfaction with life causes terrorism.
That's not true.
The precondition for the terrorism that we're talking about is a belief in radical in jihad, a belief in a strain of Islam that is alive and well, and that is all too real and a threat to us.
And even identifying that is a step that many are unwilling to take, unfortunately, in this country.
So that's my response to all of that.
But there is that.
Yeah.
What do we have here?
Stephen in, I thought it was Stephen in Berlin, like, oh, like Zoriel Berlin.
Like, ah, Gutenberg, Steven.
How are you doing?
But it's like, Connecticut, Berlin.
Hi, Steve, from Connecticut.
What's up, Steve?
The call is going to have to get to the point.
So with your CIA background, can you kind of expand a little bit on how SAP information would go from a secured network to an unsecured network?
And isn't the mere possession of that on her server automatically a crime?
Look, I can just tell you this.
I think I said this earlier on the show earlier in the week when I filled in on what was it, Tuesday.
If I had done any of the things that Hillary Clinton's already admitted to doing, I know I would be fired.
I know I'd be stripped of my clearance and my career would have been over in the agency, right?
So maybe people think they can overlook all of that.
But for somebody who holds yourself up as look at how awesome my resume is.
Well, for a normal person, you would have been fired from that job had anyone known what you were actually doing.
So you start there.
On the criminal side of it, the standard, the whole marked, whatever it's marked, and you're talking about different levels of, you know, very sensitive stuff down to the least sensitive, which would be confidential, whatever it may be marked as, or sorry, the fact that it's unmarked, I mean, is irrelevant.
And that's finally, I think that has seeped out enough that people are aware of this, and there's no longer confusion as to whether there's no longer confusion as to whether that's a real defense.
It's not a real defense, right?
Saying, because if unmarked classified meant that it's not classified, anybody who's worked at CIA, NSA, et cetera, FBI, you name it, could write a book at home and publish it and be like, well, it wasn't marked classified, right?
So it's just a nonsense excuse.
It has no meaning.
The issue comes into a sort of mens-rea sort of criminal state of mind question as to whether Hillary knew when she received this stuff it was classified or not.
She's essentially claiming a degree of ignorance on all this that's a degree of ignorance that she does not, she cannot legitimately claim because it would mean that she's an imbecile.
I mean, she must have known some of this stuff was classified.
I don't think Hillary Clinton is a dumb woman at all.
I think she's probably too savvy for her own good sometimes.
Can I ask one question?
Yeah, sure.
Go ahead.
If she was trained as like an original classification authority, wouldn't she have given like advanced training on what's classified and what's not classified?
Stephen, you sound like somebody who's held a security clearance.
You must have held a clearance yourself.
You're talking about being an originator.
Is that a fair statement?
No, no, it's not.
Just trolling through the internet.
Oh, you just read about this a lot.
All right.
Yeah, because you're busting out some of the lingo on me here.
No, of course.
Look, I was.
I couldn't hear what you said because we just crawled.
What did you say there?gov email address.
So to me, that means everything that she would expect with any sort of class or any sort of sensitive information would automatically be against her.
Apparently they found out about all this or the investigation kind of got kicked off because of that viral.
I just saw this reported last night.
The photo of her looking at her BlackBerry and using an unsecured BlackBerry.
They're like, wait, what?
That's how she's responding to emails to people?
Well, on what account?
At least I saw that reported.
I don't know if that really had as much weight in this as people are saying it does now.
I know there was also, of course, the hacker guy and the Benghazi investigation brought some of this up as well.
But no, look, I don't think it's possible that she wasn't aware that she was being look, you have to prove recklessness for her to be criminally charged.
And even if you could prove recklessness, would they be willing to criminally charge her?
And I think the answer to that is still probably no.
Absent leaks from the FBI and essentially like an FBI protest or walkout.
If something like that happened, then maybe you would see action.
But I don't know.
I'm not on the inside of that investigation.
I can't see what they're seeing.
There's the 33,000 deleted emails that she unilaterally deleted.
Remember, by the way, that's a lot of - I don't delete all my emails all the time, right?
Most people just leave that stuff.
You don't worry about this storage space.
If you've got a Hotmail or a Gmail account or whatever, I mean, they kind of just leave it, right?
She was a lean, mean, deleting machine.
So she was very into making sure that some stuff was not going to be FOIAable, if you will.
I think we just made up a word there.
But yeah, no, I think that Hillary, Hillary did things.
If she's not Hillary Clinton, violated the law.
Full stop.
But she's Hillary Clinton, so we'll see if the law is, in fact, applied equally.
I am still very, I still fall on the side of, I do not think the law will be applied in a fair fashion here.
But Stephen from Connecticut, thank you for calling in.
I've learned some new things today.
Like there's a Berlin, Connecticut, and there's a Delaware, Ohio.
This is a great thing we're doing the show.
I love learning American, learning American geography.
I need to know these things.
800-282-2882.
We'll continue on with some calls, some chats, some other fun stuff.
Buck Sexton here in for Rush.
Back in a few.
Buck Sexton here in for Rush.
We've got some calls going because it is open line Friday.
Scott in Georgia.
What is up, sir?
Hi there.
Phil in host Dittos.
Thank you.
I just wanted to make a quick suggestion.
You know, I think that this whole thing about having the server, I agree with you, they're not going to do anything about that.
But I think that the media is missing really what the big story here is, and that is that we see multiple times where giant contributions have gone into the Clinton Foundation.
And just shortly after a contribution is made, Saudi Arabia suddenly gets airplanes that they were denied.
You see Russian companies giving money to the Clinton Foundation, and then suddenly they're being sold American uranium.
And that's where the real story is: the Clintons are nothing but a money-making machine who have lived off the government their entire life.
And if she makes it into the White House, it's going to be the same thing all over again.
Buying a coffee with the president and then suddenly ending up with nuclear secrets.
It's government for sale.
And what's been so galling, I think, for a lot of us is to watch Hillary try to sort of match Bernie in sort of tone and tenor and approach in the earlier stages of the Democrat primary with how they're both for Main Street over Wall Street and all the big corporations and the money.
Hillary loves big corporations, you know, as I'm fond of saying, Hillary's for the little guy, as long as the little guy's got 250 grand to give her for a speech.
I mean, it's ridiculous.
The influence peddling that's gone on with the Clintons is on a scale and is so widespread as to be, as I've said, it's overwhelming.
It's hard to even know where to start with it because they've, and in the process, they've also turned a charity into a vehicle for personal branding and enrichment.
So these are deeply unethical people.
And that's why when people start to tell me, well, Trump is really bad and I'm a conservative, so I'm going to vote for Hillary.
I'm just like, well, what?
Well, how is that a good idea?
That I do not understand on any level.
But I do hear some out there who have platforms and followings and such will say that.
I just kind of lose my mind.
We could take another one.
Don in Florida, Orlando, to be more specific.
What's up?
Hey, I've been listening to your conversation about Hillary and the security thing.
I worked in classified documents for 25 years for the government.
I've signed many non-disclosure forms for all levels of clearance.
I'm wondering, if she were elected, would it be possible for somebody to initiate a class action suit for recall?
Because we represent millions and millions of citizens who have signed those forms, and she has cheated.
She has committed treason, and we know it.
So you mean people who have held clearances, if they all sort of banded together, could.
If they put out a class action suit and say, let's recall Hillary, I'd sign it because I know what those documents say.
Yeah, I don't know.
Look, this is, I've never heard anyone raise this before.
I don't know if you would have standing as sort of somebody who just had signed a national security NDA.
Well, I don't know I wouldn't, but somebody might and I could sign it.
Well, somebody might.
Okay, I'll take that.
It's definitely a possibility.
Look, I mean, what she's done is everyone I know who has held a clearance just sort of shakes their head and says there's no way that this is, there's no way that this would fly for anyone else.
But look, she's Hillary, so the rules are quite different.
Look, I mean, go into a court, hold your hand up and swear that you will tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, then get caught in a blatant lie and assume that they won't prosecute you for perjury.
Bill Clinton did it.
So, you know, the rules are not applied evenly.
The law is not applied evenly.
And when it comes to Hillary and the classified stuff, that certainly is the case, continues to be the case.
So, Donna, I'm fired up like you are, but I don't know if we'll be able to get a recall going with the class action effort with those who have had class action by those with classified.
It's some wordplay at work here.
I think I have to go in.
Yeah, yeah, I got to go to a break.
All right, Buck Sexton and for Rush.
Much more, not much more, a little more coming.
Stay with me.
Now, this is the saddest part of being on the EIB.
Well, I have to close it out.
You know, Uncle Rush gives me the keys to the EIB Ferrari, and I've been just tearing around the neighborhood, but now I have to give them back.
But it's been fun today.
As always, I appreciate Rush and the whole team letting me sit in and have some fun with all of you.

So with that, all my friends, all I have to do is bid you adieu, and I wish you all the very best.
