You are entering the freedom hot.

It's a national emergency. It's a pandemic. The country is increasingly on lockdown. I will walk you through everything that is going on right now. What we are facing, what we should expect also.

In case anybody cares, there was a democratic debate last night. A little bit of that and some other things too.

Coming up. This is the Buck Sexton Show where the mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

One whole thing. Magnum mistake. Bring your greater America again. The Buck Sexton Show begins.

Former CIA analyst. He's a great guy. He's a Buck Sexton.

No. To unleash the full power of the federal government in this effort today, I am officially declaring a national emergency to very big words.

The action I am taking will open up access to up to $50 billion of very importantly, very important and a large amount of money for states and territories or localities in our shared fight against this disease.

In furtherance of the order, emerging every state to set up emergency operation centers effective immediate.

Welcome the Buck Sexton Show everybody. We are feeling like we're in a whole new world right now. That's understandable. I'm here in New York City. In fact, I'm in a mobile freedom hut in a sense.

We've had to set up at different locations to make sure we can do this social distancing and walking around a little bit just to do essential errands because I'm.

I'm hearing as much as I can to the requests of city authorities and health experts not to spend.

Time out there. In what it's increasingly feeling like the red zone. We are in for a tough eight weeks. At least.

I'm hoping that within the next two to three weeks people realize that this is manageable. But we are in for a tough a tough period here. There's no question about that.

You have cities across the country now Los Angeles, New York. About you are already having decided that restaurants need to shut down.

Public places need to close their doors. Market got absolutely crushed as soon as it opened this morning. We're in a tough spot.

We're going to get through it as a country and I want to try to mix realism with a necessary and very valid optimism as we spend time here together.

But for many of you, I'm just going to say this right now you team are my connection to the outside world. I am trying to stay locked down here for the foreseeable.

So this show behind behind the walls of a building that is increasingly surrounded by people who are trying to avoid even being on the street.

This show will be my outreach to the rest of the world. We're all supposed to keep away from each other. New York City just so you get some sense of those you live out in the country.

You see that many people you're in a rural area. There's a very different feeling and I think that's understandable. New York City is already about to become ground zero for this same city that was the ground zero for the 9-11 attacks is in the midst of becoming the single epicenter of this disease, which is changing our daily lives.

And who knows what the final economic impact of it all will be who knows where all of this is really going. At this point, all I can tell you is we've got to come together as a country and do everything that we can to help each other try to mitigate the risks to our economy to businesses try to do whatever we can to assist.
