Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show podcast.

0:04.8

Thanks for rolling with us here on the second hour of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.

0:10.0

Friday, always fly by fast. You want to call us 800-282-2882.

0:16.0

And I have to tell you, it is remarkable how quickly a mass casualty terror attack has fallen out of the headlines.

0:28.0

Not just here in New York City, but across the country. It was just days ago there was a terrorist on a New York City subway who tried to kill a whole lot of people just going about their day-to-day lives here in the morning rush hour in Brooklyn here in New York.

0:44.0

He was caught, a lot of reporting about that and obviously the day of the incident it was the dominant news story for good reason.

0:51.0

But there's no aftermath discussion. There's no panels I'm seeing on TV or elsewhere wondering what could have been done to prevent this or what ideology is behind this.

1:04.0

What's the motive? And as I've been saying on Twitter and elsewhere, I would ask you right now, what is the official motive for the killing in Walkishah?

1:16.0

That mass murder in Walkishah, the Chrisis parade, has they ever told this? I think the answer is quite clearly no.

1:23.0

They had not. Can any of you without googling it, remember the name of the killer in Walkishah?

1:31.0

The answer is almost overwhelmingly going to be no unless you maybe live in the area and it was something that was geographically closer to you or God forbid you knew someone who was affected that day.

1:42.0

You all know the name of Kyle Rittenhouse, of course. And he was somebody who we were told was a mass shooter, a white supremacist.

1:52.0

And if you even tried to raise money for his defense, you were targeted by social media, speaking of Twitter and all the rest of it.

2:01.0

And people lost their jobs for raising money. Kyle Rittenhouse was 100% not guilty. Found not guilty in a court of law was not guilty to any reasonable person.

2:10.0

But for months, the media ran with the story that he was a somehow a white supremacist shooter, even though the people that he shot were also white, didn't matter.

2:19.0

It doesn't matter. This is about narrative folks. It's about what they want to tell you is the storyline here. It's about what they want to focus on.

2:25.0

The biggest editorial decisions that are made every day are not even in the specific words used to describe certain incidents.

2:32.0

It's what they talk about and for how long and what they don't.

2:36.0

So just remember that as we sit here, it's Friday, there was a terrorist attack in New York City on the subway and they use the term the FBI is using the term terror attack.

2:45.0

And there's no no panels on the rise of terrorism in America, domestic terrorism, Clay none of it. Okay.

2:52.0

I want to point that I also wanted to say that the crime situation in cities is intolerable and because it keeps getting worse and it's top to bottom.

3:01.0

It's violent crime. It's everything you can imagine quality of life crime, simple shoplifting.
