Sam Bushman and Sheriff Richard Mack react to the Democrats sweeping the midterms and what it means for America. They're joined by Buddy Mason of Revelation Gold Group to break down why the stock market surged 1,100 points on election night, how fickle voters swung from Trump to Democrats in two years, and why George Washington warned that political parties would destroy the country. Buddy explains why gold at $4,038 and silver at $52 are still good buys, how precious metals outperformed bonds during the COVID crash, why central banks worldwide are buying 1,000 metric tons of gold per year, and how the Roman centurion analogy proves gold holds its value across millennia. Plus, a warning about fake precious metals scams and how to get started at sheriffmacmetals.com.

[00:00:04] Broadcasting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West. You are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show.
[00:00:20] The party's over, ladies and gentlemen. Happy to have you along. I'm Sam Bushman, CEO of the Constitutional Sheriff's Abyss Officers Association. And good news, I've got the president and founder with me, the good sheriff, Sheriff Richard Mack, CSPOA.org. Become a member today. Also get a copy of his incredible book, More Relevant Now.
[00:00:39] than ever, the Democrat Murder of America. You ain't seen nothing yet. Watch them as they take power. How abusive and hostile to the way we live and the Constitution they will become. Demagoguery in the first degree. Daniel Perkins and Sheriff Mack wrote the book together, The Democrat Murder of America. MurderofAmerica.com to get your copy today. Sheriff, welcome, sir. Thank you, Sam.
[00:01:07] Thank you, Sam. I do want to be positive about one thing, as we're going to be talking about gold and silver here in a minute. The stock market loved what happened. One of the highest days in a long time, over 1,100 points for the Dow. The S&P is up a point and a half, a huge, huge. You know why, right? Huge.
[00:01:30] Huge. Yeah, I know why, but I don't know if it would fit everybody else's thing. Why do you think, by the way? This is really important, really quick. Well, first of all, we're getting the change of the war in Iran, and so that's a very positive move. Well, we'll see if they back out of the war from Iran or if they just kind of double down and support you.
[00:01:57] Right, but I think that's the opinion right now of people looking at it, that gas is going to go down and that we're going to get out of that war and that's going to save us a lot of time and money and blah, blah, blah. Yeah, I think a big reason is I think that people believe that there'll be less tariff tampering. It's one thing for Congress to set steady, constant, appropriate tariffs, which I support because they're constitutional. It's another for Donald Trump to run around like he's got a big samurai sword with tariffs, and that's kind of what's been going on.
[00:02:27] And so I think it's a tariff tampering back away from that idea that's really kind of bringing us forward. But let's bring our guest on, Buddy Mason, because he might have a tidbit on one last night and then two on the stock market and a gold and silver honest money approach to that. Buddy, welcome to Liberty Roundtable Live, sir. Well, thanks, Sam. Thanks for having me. Glad to be here. All right, let's talk about what happened last night first, then we'll get into gold and silver, sir. What do you think of last night? It was brutal.
[00:02:56] It was brutal for sure. Not the outcome I would have liked, but, you know, the thing that I don't get, and I'm not here exactly for political commentary, but I'm glad to chime in. You know, I understand liberals' positions. I don't agree with them, but I do understand them.
[00:03:16] But what I have a harder time understanding is when you look at last night, obviously two years ago, most of the same people, most of them are the same people voting. So that means there had to be a significant percentage of people that, you know, would vote for, say, Donald Trump two years ago, say, Governor Abbott in Texas two years ago.
[00:03:41] But now turn around and vote for somebody, you know, completely opposite. So it's the people in the middle, and they might call themselves moderates, but I just don't understand the moderate's position because there's no such thing as a moderate Democrat anymore. And so where that leaves you is, you know, really almost like, well, do you just not have any principles at all?
[00:04:06] Like, I almost understand the liberals' perspective more than I understand people that just jump from Democrat to Republican and back and forth as if these people think the same thing. Like, they agree on almost nothing. So it's almost like you've got to pick a side and stick with it. So I'm just kind of at a loss to try to figure that one out. All right. What do you think of that, Sheriff? I think he's got a valid point. And I think the problem is it's a lot of people not voting, and it's different people coming to the table.
[00:04:35] So it might not be the same people as he's suggesting, but it is true. A large percentage of that group has to be that kind of fickle to where they don't really have beliefs. They're just like, hey, somebody else fixed it. Oh, that didn't work. Well, let's just, you know, try somebody else. As you mentioned, the pendulum swings, right? Yeah, the pendulum goes from the left to the right because people keep floundering and looking for an answer, and the Democrats and Republicans never really come up with it.
[00:05:03] And I think while Buddy was talking, and hey, it's good to meet you, Buddy. You too. And here we are partners now. But I think really he really touched on the warning from General or General. Well, he was General, too, but President George Washington in his farewell address about the two-party system, about parties in general. Does anybody really know why we have parties? They're not part of our government.
[00:05:32] It's not guaranteed in the Constitution except for freedom of expression. But this is something the American people have got to stop. Washington warned us that we would be turning over the reins of government to unprincipled, ambitious, and cunning, and, in my opinion, totally corrupt people. And we saw that in the response from the Democrats. Oh, you better law your upper. Oh, we're here to save you. And, oh, we got a mandate.
[00:06:01] Why did the Democrats say Trump got a mandate two years ago? Why did they say we've got to work with the Republicans? We've got to make things better for everybody. No, it was just the opposite. We're going to fight those Republicans. It is absolutely true that people, both parties, are more true and loyal to their party than they are to our Constitution or to our country or to the American people.
[00:06:30] Tragic but reality. That's for sure, ladies and gentlemen. That's why I reject party. And I've gotten to the point where I refuse to vote for anybody that's part of a party. And so, therefore, I don't really have many people to vote for these days. It's sad but true. And I know people are saying, Sam, you just got to get along and go along, and parties are the way they are. But if you read George Washington's farewell address, you realize that parties will destroy the country. And the longer we vote for parties, the more we will destroy the country. And parties turn into factions. And that's what we're seeing now. You had MAGA against the old school or old vanguard Republicans.
[00:07:00] You had the whacked-out Democrats. You know, you had the kind of mainstream Democrats or the blue dog Democrats or the, you know, extreme AOC kind of Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters kind of psychotic Democrats. Then you had the crazy, you know, Muslim Democrats. I mean, it just goes crazy. But, folks, remember, we don't have Perry Mason with us, but we do have Buddy Mason with us. And that ought to take us away from politics, ladies and gentlemen, and focus on constitutional currency. He represents Revelation Gold Group.
[00:07:29] And I advocate for honest money regardless of who wins or loses. Perry, I mean, Buddy. Touche. Very good on the Buddy Mason. What do you think, though? I mean, look, constitutional money doesn't depend on party at all, does it? No, it doesn't. So one thing I did want to add on the market side, I was a financial advisor for about 10 years. And one thing I can tell you about the markets is they don't like uncertainty.
[00:07:56] And so even when the news is they would rather have good news or bad news, but some news just to kind of get an idea of kind of what's going on. And the markets tend to do favorably when there's some kind of decisions on things. And so I think that's part of what the less tariff tampering is what they're looking for right now. They're going, look, let's just bring back certainty in the markets. I do think the Democrats will do that, even though I don't believe they'll do it in the way that I would. I do think that they will settle a lot of those things down, though. Don't you think?
[00:08:24] Yeah, I think so. So, you know, when you talk about kind of gold and silver and precious metals, kind of what is causing kind of there's really kind of an uproar surrounding them right now. And it's kind of what's going on here domestically, but really all over the world. When people kind of look at, you know, global conflicts, you know, we call it geopolitical uncertainty. But what that really means is the world's a big fat mess.
[00:08:54] You know, we're talking wars and trade wars and all of that type of thing. And it just leads to a lot of uncertainty. I don't think that last night is actually going to fix any of that certainty. It's only going to create more uncertainty. And so when you look at that, you combine that with inflation. You combine that with the fact that we just eclipsed $40 trillion of national debt.
[00:09:17] And people are looking for just a safe haven, something not necessary to make them rich overnight or something like that, but something to just protect what they've worked so hard for or maybe even are currently still working for. And, you know, gold specifically has been a safe haven. It's been around for 5,000 years. It's mentioned over 400 times in the Bible alone. It's probably not going to go anywhere, and it's just something that people can count on.
[00:09:46] And I think that's where you're seeing a lot of people kind of inquire and have a lot of interest in it. Amen to that. And I will say that the reason I laughed is because, you know, the financial world has this interesting language about geo this and that, and you're like, hey, the world's gone to crap. I just had such a funny truism about the language the financial world uses versus you putting it in plain terms. Sheriff Mack, that was refreshing, sir.
[00:10:17] It was, buddy. Way to go. And, yeah, we're proud to be partners with Revelation Gold, and we're glad you're on the show to let everybody know. And maybe you ought to stay on an extra 10 minutes afterwards. Oh, he's going to stay on for the posse too, Sheriff. Yeah, he is. First part of the posse, yes. Oh, good. Perfect. Glad to. Because the posse webinar is right after this, and it's all CSPOA stuff.
[00:10:46] And obviously, your partnership is with CSPOA. And we hope that everybody in the country will do exactly what you said, and that is get some gold and silver and hedge your bets. Yeah. Now, you know, it's something I want to point out. Whenever we give these talks, I have to point out I'm not giving specific financial advice. Everybody's situation is different.
[00:11:14] We're not advocating that people take, you know, their life savings and put it in gold and silver. That wouldn't be a prudent thing to do. Neither would having all your eggs in any basket. You know, diversification is the name of the game when it comes to investing. Without knowing anybody's specific, you know, time horizon and risk tolerance and goals and objectives and all sorts of things,
[00:11:38] regardless of if it's me or anybody else, if somebody's giving you financial advice without knowing a whole lot about your individual situation, I'd be very cautious. But what I can say is I think we can make a pretty good case for why gold and silver and precious metals fits in as some piece. Rather, it be for some people, it might be 10 percent. Some people, it might be 5 percent. You mentioned kind of hedging your bets. And gold and silver have proven historically.
[00:12:06] And we encourage people to kind of do your own research. This is really kind of for educational purposes. But when you look at how gold and silver have performed, especially when the markets go down, you're going to find that they are a better hedge, particularly recently, than bonds have been. You know, the last major market correction we had was back in 2020 at the first quarter of COVID. And the market went down about 30 percent.
[00:12:33] Well, if you look in just about everybody's retirement program that they have like a 401k or something through work or what have you, about everybody has some kind of mix between equities, which are stocks and mutual funds and things like that, and bonds. And so bonds are that kind of hedging the bet part for most people. Well, when the market went down 30 percent, the problem was so did bonds. Now, they didn't go down 30 percent, but they still went down.
[00:13:00] So when the thing that's supposed to be kind of hedging you goes down with it, well, that's not a very good hedge. And if you look back, what did precious metals do during that period of time? They performed very, very well. So what we do advocate is if people will kind of do their research, you'll see that precious metals are a better hedge than bonds are against the market. It's true diversification because it's completely outside of the market.
[00:13:26] It's something that doesn't depend upon numbers on a screen. It's actual physical gold and silver is what we're talking about. And so it's something that you can hold in your hand. And that's what people get excited about. That in our high tech world of cryptocurrency and all of that, people like the idea of when we send them a FedEx insured package and it has real gold or silver bars or coins or bullion in it.
[00:13:53] And, you know, it's tangible and it's something real. Very different from, say, cryptocurrency. In fact, kind of the exact opposite. Speaking of that, sorry to interrupt real quickly. Speaking of crypto, I've never got into it, but it sure looks like a good idea. It has looked like a good idea for the last seven or eight years. However, whatever happened to the idea of digital dollar? Oh, it's coming, buddy.
[00:14:23] Everybody's talking. What happened to it? It's completely quiet now. Right. It's been kind of tabled. And there's some reservations about how that could not be such a good thing. And that's kind of why it is tabled. But, you know, it's funny, a lot of the people that are going kind of one direction on the cryptocurrency now are hedging their bets on really the exact opposite, which is physical precious metals.
[00:14:49] So they're doing, I mean, cryptocurrency, when you boil it down, I've been to seminars on this stuff and everything else, and I still can't fully explain it because it's created virtually out of nothing. Well, it's no different than the fiat dollar. It's all just fake money, ladies and gentlemen. And it will never replace constitutional currency. And it doesn't matter the manipulation, ladies and gentlemen. Buddy Mason with us, Revelation Gold Group. I think what they've got is they've got this digital dollar pretty much on the 10-yard line.
[00:15:16] And they're ready for a sneak attack right up the middle, buddy, to gain yardage. And so, yes, it is tabled right now. But make no mistake, these lame ducks will move that ball forward. Keep an eye on that, I'm telling you right now. When it comes to constitutional currency, remember, gold's spot right now is around $4,038. Silver's around $52. And so right now, in my opinion, it's a good buy. I know it's more expensive than we've seen over the last many years. It's kind of went up because of the war.
[00:15:43] Then it kind of settled back down a bit, way higher than we've seen for a long time. But it's off of its highs right now. And I think gold and silver will keep their value because they're still way out of whack and still undervalued. Avoid the stocks. Avoid the paper play. And take possession of your metal. Buddy Mason, Revelation Gold Group. What do you say to that advice? I say a little bit of beans, a little bit of Band-Aids, a little bit of bullets. And slowly but surely get constitutional currency because someday it will, pardon the pun, save your bacon. Sir?
[00:16:13] Well, you're not alone in that thinking. And one of the people or one group of people that are singing the same tune that you're singing are banks all over the world. The largest banks all across the world are buying gold at a record clip to the tune of about 1,000 metric tons per year. And they've been doing that for the last four years. Despite whatever, even when the gold was at its highest back in January, they're not slowing down.
[00:16:43] And so China is one of the countries that's doing that. In fact, they made their largest purchase of gold in the last many years just a couple of months ago. And so when you see that and when you see these major banks who supposedly have the smartest financial minds anywhere in the world, and they're literally trading American dollars, which they used to hold, and replacing that with physical gold. And it's got to make you wonder.
[00:17:11] That's because they listen to Liberty Roundtable and they know what we know. Maybe that's it. But, you know, it makes you wonder what do they know that we don't know or maybe that we should know. And sometimes, you know, if you're not an economic… You know, I don't mean to interrupt. They know what the founders knew, sir. Well, that's right. That's right. And so… I was joking about me taking credit. They know what the founders knew. And the founders are learning what God knew.
[00:17:36] And God knew that honest money, honest weights and measures, as the Bible calls it, is, you know what, it's been reality and stable and constant through the history of the world thousands of years, sir. These bankers aren't stupid. They're caught up on that. And our goal is to make sure that you're caught up on that, ladies and gentlemen. And that's why Revelation Gold Group is one of the solutions for you because they want you to take possessions of your metals. They want you to learn the truth and understand how to handle new mismatic coins if that's what you want to do.
[00:18:05] Invest in specialty coins. Or if you're just the flat, hey, I want dimes, nickels, halves, quarters, you know, that kind of stuff, then you can get some of the junk silver. I kind of find that comical. We say a pretty crisp dollar bill and junk silver. We're outside of our minds. They kind of got it backwards. When it comes to the truth, it's backwards, right? Right. So, you know, we talk a lot about inflation. But when you really look at it, it's not that the prices of everything have gone up.
[00:18:32] It's that the value of the dollar has gone down, which means you just need more and more dollars all the time to buy the same thing. You know, what anything is worth is just what can you get with it? What can you buy with it? And so the analogy that I like to give, which is a true one, is that 2,000 years ago, back in the Roman centurion days, a Roman centurion was paid with an ounce of gold.
[00:18:58] And what they could buy with that ounce of gold was a really nice Roman centurion outfit. They could buy a belt and they could buy a pair of sandals. Now, if you fast forward to, say, 150 years ago, what could you buy with an ounce of gold? You could buy a really nice tailored suit, a really nice belt, and a really nice pair of shoes. Now, fast forward to today. You just mentioned gold is sitting at about $4,000 an ounce.
[00:19:27] Well, what can you buy with one ounce of gold? Pretty nice suit for $4,000 and a nice belt and a nice pair of shoes. So what I'm getting at is the same ounce of gold buys you what it would buy 2,000 years ago, what it would buy you 150 years ago, and what it would buy you today. It hasn't changed in terms of what you can actually buy with it. That is not true, obviously, of our American dollar,
[00:19:54] where you just need more and more and more and more all the time to buy the same thing. Okay, buddy, real quick, Sam, before we leave, the same group of people in this audience won't be with us in the next hour. So why don't you tell everybody how everybody on our program gets gold and silver from Revelation Gold? Yeah. So the first thing we do is we really focus on education. So if you call us or contact us in some way,
[00:20:23] we're not going to start cramming gold and silver down your throat and try to high-pressure sales you or anything like that. We're going to provide you information. One of the things that we do is provide you a wealth guide. We also have a faithful steward guide because we really ultimately believe that our mission is really just helping people steward what God has entrusted them with. And so you're going to get a lot of information, and then we're going to lead you through the process at whatever speed that you want.
[00:20:52] We've set up a distinct URL or a landing page for your audience, which is just go to sheriffmacmetals.com, sheriffmacmetals.com, and you'll be able to put in some information, and we can send you those guides either electronically or in the mail, whichever you would like. And then we're going to follow up with you to whatever extent that you want just to educate you and continue to give you any information that you need.
[00:21:20] We believe that when people realize the store of value that gold has been for 5,000 years, when you see how it's a hedge against the market and against inflation, it sells itself. We don't have to strong-arm people into buying it. We just provide information, and people are able to make informed decisions on their own. Sounds great. All right. Share me the website again. Sheriffmacmetals.com.
[00:21:51] Sheriffmacmetals with an S dot com. Correct. So, ladies and gentlemen, listen, you've got a buddy in the gold and silver market, and he's there to advise you and help you understand what is best to do. Tell me the difference between Revelation Gold Group and the myriad of precious metals companies out there. There's a difference, and people need to know that difference, buddy. Yeah. Just a few weeks ago, just to try out one, you know, one of the things that I would caution people, if it seems, you know,
[00:22:19] it's the old saying that if it seems to be too good to be true, it probably is. If you see somebody that's advertising one ounce gold, Dan Perkins mentioned this to me. He found somebody that was advertising one ounce gold for $99 an ounce. When gold is $4,000 an ounce, nobody is selling you gold for $99. So, you know, some of it's common sense, but again... I'm sorry, they meant a gram. Right, right, exactly. The other thing is,
[00:22:48] even people that aren't disguising it by what the weight is, I went online, and I found somebody that was just selling silver at a pretty good discount to spot. Well, again, everybody, all the gold dealers buy the product at really about the same rate. So, nobody's got a monopoly on how they can buy it, which means they can't undersell it in a, you know, far discounted premium than everybody else. But this company was selling it at about 15 to 20% less,
[00:23:18] which is a lot than everybody else. So, I bought some just to test it out. And then I took it to a place where they could shoot a gun on it and see the silver content. The silver content was zero. It was completely fake. So, you've got to really be careful of who you deal with, that they're not, not only are they, you know, high pressure selling you, but in some cases, you're not even getting real precious metals. ladies and gentlemen, so they buy it, they tell you it's fake, they tell you not to buy it. That's why they're called revelation.
[00:23:48] That was a revelation to most folks. There you go. So, avoid that kind of stuff. Revelation gold group, sheriffmacmetals.com, or you can go, of course, to cspoa.com, become a member, and then get your precious metals. But you've got a buddy in the constitutional currency business, buddy Mason with us, ladies and gentlemen. I'm Sam Bushman. We lost the elections big time. If you're a conservative Republican, if you're mean, you don't believe in parties, you say, well, it's about time they got their heads handed to them.
[00:24:18] Maybe people will look in a Northern direction for true North, instead of these clown show parties. And maybe we can do the same thing with constitutional currency. Ladies and gentlemen, revelation gold group with us, buddy Mason. Thank you, sir. Sheriff Mac stay there. Mason will stay there as well. Cause we're going to move right into the CSPO a posse. I'm Sam Bushman. God save our constitutional Republic.
