make a difference and thanks for standing with us now let's get to work
00:01:42.920
When times get tired, gotta face the dog and embrace the fire.
00:02:10.980
So, we've got a full slate of stuff to tell you about.
00:02:26.240
But because of you, Preborn has helped rescue over 38,000 babies this year alone.
00:02:35.240
Tens of thousands of children who got to take their first breath.
00:02:39.840
Who now have a chance to grow up, to laugh, to dream.
00:02:46.580
For just $28, you can provide an ultrasound to a mother in crisis.
00:02:50.600
When she sees her baby on that screen, when she hears that heartbeat, she's twice as likely to choose life at that point.
00:03:00.620
They continue walking with her, providing practical help and emotional support, long after the baby is born.
00:03:07.280
As abortion continues to rise, Preborn is expanding their life-affirming care in the darkest corners of our nation to help more hurting women and save more babies.
00:03:19.260
So, if you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to help save babies in a really big way?
00:03:27.200
Your tax-deductible donation of $15,000 would help place a machine in a needy women's center, saving countless lives for years to come.
00:03:37.800
So, if you can help in whatever way, maybe it's $1, maybe it's $15,000, whatever you can afford.
00:04:08.180
I thought we'd start with something kind of fun.
00:04:13.100
They're actually building a ballroom now at the White House, which is kind of fun.
00:04:17.860
Trump has been traveling the world and seeing these mega ruler mansions of other countries.
00:04:25.580
And I think he feels like, man, I live in a dump.
00:04:38.660
So, that's why we're building a 90,000 square foot ballroom.
00:04:48.320
I think he's going to get donors from, you know, maybe some rich friends.
00:04:55.940
So, you know, even when you add the 90,000 to the 52,000, you still only got 140,000 square foot dump.
00:05:07.300
When you consider the fact that Buckingham Palace is something like 840,000 square feet.
00:05:15.040
I mean, the Saudi place was, I mean, there's several places in Saudi Arabia.
00:05:21.700
Brunei, I think, is the biggest 2.1 million square feet of their palace.
00:05:33.280
It's the greatest nation in the history of the world.
00:05:35.720
We have a builder as president of the United States of America.
00:05:50.540
Because they got rid of all the grass and everything, right?
00:05:54.760
So, they put it in the concrete with the new tables.
00:06:04.540
I don't know what I expected, but I expected better.
00:06:12.160
I mean, what he's done to the Oval Office, you expect what might happen in the Rose Garden
00:06:23.060
But there is some fixing upping going on in the White House right now.
00:06:29.040
And so, I don't have a problem with it as long as we're not paying for it.
00:06:33.240
We're going to have to raise the flagpoles if he starts building upper deck additions to
00:06:42.340
But those were actually really tastefully done, I thought.
00:06:52.940
Are we in an economic spot where it's okay to be doing this?
00:06:56.760
Well, especially since we're not paying for it, yes.
00:06:58.900
But the other thing is, Stephen Moore went through what's going on right now with the
00:07:08.740
I don't know if you've seen these economic numbers, but check this out from Stephen Moore.
00:07:18.020
And what I find fascinating about this, Mr. President, is every income group did better.
00:07:26.900
Every single income group did better under President Trump.
00:07:32.020
But what's really amazing is look what happened under Biden.
00:07:35.420
The lowest income group lost income under Biden.
00:07:39.940
They were poor four years after Biden's presidency.
00:07:43.540
No gain virtually whatsoever for the middle class.
00:07:46.440
And the rich was the only group that did better under Biden, which is ironic because Biden keeps
00:07:51.800
saying he was trying to get rid of income inequality.
00:07:57.120
It was President Trump that reduced income inequality.
00:08:05.520
These are the numbers just in, I just showed you the percentage terms.
00:08:10.760
Mr. President, these are the numbers in dollar terms.
00:08:13.200
So, even the lowest income, 25th percent, gained about $4,000 income.
00:08:21.760
$6,400 for the middle class and almost $10,000 for the richest.
00:08:26.300
So, you can see every income group did better under Trump than Biden, by a wide margin.
00:08:36.440
Because I think those numbers, so far, it would have been six, seven months.
00:08:43.700
It's pretty amazing because that's what Biden said he was all about, was the little guy.
00:08:50.240
And they didn't want to give tax cuts to the richest Americans.
00:09:00.140
Then how did the little guy lose money during your reign of terror?
00:09:21.340
President Trump also discussed the meeting of him with Vladimir Putin, which could be coming up as soon as next week.
00:09:33.200
And he addressed whether or not that might include Zelensky.
00:09:39.340
Does Putin have to meet with Zelensky in order and before you and Putin have to meet?
00:09:47.460
That's actually important because the president, President Putin said this morning,
00:09:50.400
he was pretty dismissive of this idea of meeting with President Zelensky.
00:09:55.660
If you need to meet with him, he doesn't have to agree to meet with Zelensky.
00:10:01.860
They would like to meet with me and I'll do whatever I can to stop the killing.
00:10:06.160
Last month, they lost 14,000 people killed last month.
00:10:24.180
And some people from the cities where, you know, missiles are lobbed in and you'll lose 35, 40 people a night, which is terrible.
00:10:34.920
And you're talking about, on average, 20,000 a month.
00:10:47.980
And, again, he seems to be the only one concerned about it.
00:10:52.340
As far as leaders on the world stage, do you hear anybody talking about that ever?
00:11:04.860
And so, he'll meet with Putin with Zelensky or without Zelensky.
00:11:11.340
Because I think he really believes that he can change Putin's mind.
00:11:18.780
And he has every confidence that he can fix this thing.
00:11:21.640
And I really do feel like he thought he would already have it done.
00:11:27.100
And that's why when, earlier in the day, yesterday, one of his, one of President Trump's new people said that they wouldn't do the meeting without Putin and Zelensky.
00:11:41.540
And then, a little bit later on, that's when Donald Trump was like, yeah, no, I'll meet with him alone.
00:11:50.120
Because he'll do whatever it takes to stop the madness.
00:11:53.460
So, if the madness doesn't stop, then you're going to continually, it's over a million people.
00:12:01.980
Today's the final day, anyway, that he gave for ending the war.
00:12:06.860
Without that, I mean, that's when, I guess, all the tariffs and secondary tariffs take effect.
00:12:13.980
So, anybody that does business with Russia gets, you know, tariffs on top of tariffs, I guess, is how they're going to do it.
00:12:25.280
And I think Putin is aware that Trump is really serious about the secondary tariffs that are going to happen to people.
00:12:32.440
If you don't get on board with the sanctions that we're going to.
00:12:51.860
They're very, very friendly with President Trump.
00:12:56.260
And so, for him to slap this 25% extra tariff on them is pretty amazing.
00:13:07.140
And so, the 25%, you know, slapped on it for the Russia, they can make that go away.
00:13:19.420
One of the countries on the planet that have a lot of people.
00:13:29.080
They keep adding more and more people like every day.
00:13:35.140
I think every time now, I mean, they've passed it enough where they're looking back now.
00:13:44.200
And they were, you know, really, one month it was China.
00:13:49.540
But I think they were, we may be at the point now where they've actually just, they're looking
00:13:56.820
And it got so bad in China that I think, didn't they remove their one child policy?
00:14:04.000
So a while ago, they said, okay, no, you can have more than one kid.
00:14:07.140
Well, yeah, I mean, all countries are hurting with their replacements.
00:14:14.320
Our replacement rate is 2.1 children per family.
00:14:24.460
It doesn't sound, you know, it's six tenths of a percent.
00:14:26.620
And that's huge when it comes to per capita and the fact that we're nowhere near where
00:15:03.660
You know, I believe in the right to protect myself, my family, and my home.
00:15:10.800
But what that might mean in the worst possible moment when you just have seconds to make a
00:15:18.100
decision, and that decision could change your life forever, that's why you need a Berna
00:15:25.620
It's a powerful, non-lethal defense tool that fires pepper projectiles, incapacitating a
00:15:32.700
threat from up to 60 feet away without taking a life.
00:15:39.640
And it gives you the confidence to know that if trouble ever finds you, you're ready without
00:15:46.120
having to carry the weight of something that you might regret.
00:15:49.680
So they're just peace of mind that comes with knowing that you're prepared and that there's an even greater
00:15:56.220
peace in knowing that your preparation doesn't have to cost someone else everything.
00:16:03.120
It's about choosing a way forward that's responsible, effective, and that's right for you.
00:16:08.400
Go to Berna.com, B-Y-R-N-A, Berna.com slash Glenn to learn more.
00:16:17.060
Go there now or try before you buy at a sportsman's warehouse near you.
00:16:36.180
I think Glenn and Stu had this woman on a few days ago who's bypassing Hamas.
00:16:48.200
Uh, she, she is getting food to the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
00:16:55.880
And in order to do that, you have to bypass Hamas because they're stealing it all.
00:17:02.420
I mean, it was, we heard Mike Johnson tell us, uh, you know, a couple of weeks ago, two or
00:17:06.260
three weeks ago that, uh, 94,000 truckloads of food from Israel into the Gaza had been taken.
00:17:22.300
There's some problems with, with food in the area, but the rest of the world is trying to
00:17:28.780
blame that on Israel and they're not the ones responsible for it.
00:17:35.280
She found some alternate routes around where Hamas is, is located so that she could get food
00:17:40.680
to the Northern part of the Gaza Strip and actually feed starving Gazans.
00:17:55.260
Her name is, uh, Sarah Awada and, uh, she's received almost no media attention at all for
00:18:04.020
It's, it's, and she's fed over a hundred thousand Gazan families.
00:18:12.900
It's a regional partner coalition operating under the multi-faith alliance in cooperation
00:18:20.020
Wait, what, wait, the Israeli authorities are helping you get food to the Gazans?
00:18:32.320
So her team, uh, built a system that moved hundreds of trucks of food and supplies into
00:18:38.160
Gaza that bypassed Hamas and private contractors who were turning hunger into a business for
00:18:45.740
So they confiscate the loads and then they try to sell that money.
00:18:50.720
So in, uh, June, she decided to, to, uh, scale up the distribution in the area at a
00:18:58.680
time when no one was able to get anything into Gaza because of looting and chaos, multiple
00:19:06.100
And so she mapped out these alternate routes and she's been working with trusted logistics
00:19:14.720
She says, she says, and got the food to the people who were starving and needed it most.
00:19:21.940
Um, so pretty, pretty amazing what she's doing.
00:19:26.740
And of course, because she's doing this, she's gotten all kinds of death threats from the Hamas
00:19:32.920
holes who, uh, who don't want the food to get to their own people.
00:19:37.460
I mean, I, I don't know how the rest of the world has not, has not condemned Hamas for
00:19:46.980
And the fact that they're starving their own people and there's never been, do you know that
00:19:53.020
the UN has passed 154 resolutions against Israel since I think it was 2017, just the
00:20:03.640
hundred, just 154 though, uh, condemnations of Israel and what they're doing.
00:20:08.040
And the number with Hamas or the Palestinian authority or anybody in, in, in any position
00:20:17.980
of authority with the Palestinians, that number is, okay, bring down the one and carry the
00:20:30.660
So this is what the Israelis have to deal with.
00:20:32.900
Um, and, uh, I don't, I don't understand how they, you know, this, none of this news ever
00:20:41.840
And so just spread this well-kept secret to people, uh, as much as you possibly can and
00:20:51.860
Um, there's an author, podcaster, Coleman Hughes, who talked about Hamas and what their
00:20:58.000
Their, uh, their goal right now is to increase the suffering of the Palestinians because then
00:21:05.560
they can blame it all on Israel and they think that's to their advantage.
00:21:10.160
So that's why you've seen the images of emaciated Gazan children.
00:21:15.540
Uh, and you know, now who's responsible for it.
00:21:18.900
It's Hamas and they're only too happy to make this happen and then tell the world it's Israel.
00:21:25.040
Well, see, they're stealing all of our food and we can't get the food to our people.
00:21:30.400
I mean, Netanyahu has said, right, he wants, he's going to take over Gaza and he's going
00:21:33.820
to, uh, get rid of, uh, the Hamas, um, friends, the Hamas, uh, holes, whatever you want to
00:21:44.560
Um, and then they're going to do securities to keep the other Gazans, uh, safe.
00:21:51.320
I mean, that's, that's his, that's his, now, now is his plan.
00:21:59.980
And if it gets the, it's unbelievable that we have not gotten all the hostages back.
00:22:06.600
And we, we hear almost nothing about them anymore.
00:22:09.620
The only reason we've heard about them lately is because of the Hamas propaganda.
00:22:14.920
I don't know how they thought that was going to be to their advantage, but they've shown
00:22:33.260
On September 11th, 2001, a young firefighter named Stephen Siller ran through the Brooklyn
00:22:40.460
Battery Tunnel in full gear to get to the Twin Towers and help save lives.
00:22:47.540
But the promise that came out of his sacrifice has been echoing ever since.
00:22:51.940
The Tunnel to Towers Foundation was built on that promise to honor our heroes by taking
00:22:58.200
That means providing mortgage-free homes to the spouses and children of fallen first responders
00:23:04.760
It means building specifically and specially adapted smart homes for our most severely injured
00:23:11.000
veterans, giving them back independence and dignity.
00:23:14.340
And that means standing with those who run toward danger, long after the headlines have
00:23:19.700
Every gift to Tunnel to Towers is a piece of that promise.
00:23:23.120
It's a way of saying to the men and women who risk everything for us, we will not forget
00:23:31.220
Never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes.
00:23:34.980
Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
00:23:44.520
Big changes ahead, transforming history and how we learn about it.
00:24:14.380
We're just talking a bit about the UN and their resolutions against Israel.
00:24:19.740
And what a worthless, stinking organization the UN is.
00:24:31.840
So earlier this week, I see a headline that says the United Nations are going to relocate
00:24:46.720
Then you're like, wait, that's too good to be true.
00:24:49.620
Well, so now we find out that they were going to move their headquarters of UNICEF, UN Women,
00:24:57.540
and UNFPA from New York to Nairobi by next year.
00:25:19.600
And they're talking about it because they believe that it will cut costs and bring services closer
00:25:26.980
Take the rest of the stupid organization with you.
00:25:29.680
So that would mean that they would be in Nairobi, New York, Geneva, Vienna, multiple headquarters.
00:25:39.180
Well, then I see an interview with some dingleberry from the UN that says, well, it's not a sure
00:25:57.520
Can't we just, I don't know, just back up the moving trucks and get them out of here.
00:26:04.640
I'd be surprised if they moved the whole operation to Nairobi, though.
00:26:08.700
I would expect, you know, Brussels, Belgium, you know.
00:26:27.220
And then they would be in Nairobi if they move there.
00:26:31.000
So they still, I mean, they still have some space in Geneva.
00:26:45.120
All the countries that love it so much and want to participate in it.
00:26:55.620
I'm just guessing there's probably some real estate available in Nairobi.
00:27:12.300
People you have to pay off to get buildings built.
00:27:16.040
Like all the people from the female people association.
00:27:46.660
Posed as computer and electronic hardware manufacturing company.
00:27:55.480
This guy and his unnamed associates scammed Facebook and Google out of $122 million.
00:28:07.540
So Remasakis sent invoice requests from Quanta Computer to Facebook and Google.
00:28:17.860
They just sent an invoice and said, hey, pay us this amount.
00:28:26.060
So Facebook gets a bill from some company that they haven't had any work done from.
00:28:38.380
And they wired the money to bank accounts in Latvia and Cyprus.
00:28:49.460
And so the banks kind of, they tried to, they've created fake documents because the bank was
00:28:55.480
questioning this influx of cash, you know, where this money was coming from.
00:28:59.660
So they created fake documents that were supposed to have been signed by Google and Facebook
00:29:06.560
And they were, the bank's still kind of questionable.
00:29:10.260
And then our FBI and Justice Department got involved, which is how he got caught.
00:29:18.520
No, they would have continued to pay it forever.
00:29:20.200
Google and Facebook would have continued to write the checks.
00:29:24.860
So if the bank hadn't said anything, it would still be going on today.
00:29:31.700
He was expedited from Lithuania and they brought him to the States and I, you know, I don't
00:29:35.520
know why or who the other unnamed people are, but the, this is just the one guy that they
00:29:41.740
got over and he pled guilty to one count of wire fraud and he, this, he pled guilty in
00:29:48.860
So he was sentenced to 60 months in prison for his criminal scheme and then a two years supervised
00:30:00.180
He was ordered by the court to forfeit 49.7 million and to pay reimbursement of 26.5 million.
00:30:10.500
I am not a mathematician, but that is not $122 million.
00:30:14.900
So that's like a 45 ish million left over somewhere.
00:30:19.280
Uh, I would be willing to do seven years for 45 million.
00:30:25.580
And actually you do five years in prison and two years, uh, supervised release for 45 million
00:30:33.560
I mean, if you don't care about the criminality of it, well, that's kind of a brilliant scheme,
00:30:43.920
And, uh, you know, this is just, this, we need to make sure you will be held accountable.
00:30:52.020
Sounds like he got away with it for a few years anyway.
00:30:56.180
He had a couple of years, uh, two or three years of big money.
00:30:58.880
And then now at the other end, unless I don't know how much the unnamed sources took, but
00:31:04.620
I mean, to my calculations, that's just at least a few million at the other end of seven
00:31:13.860
I'm, you know, I'd be, I would, I may help somebody out at some point in my life.
00:31:20.880
Uh, it's pretty amazing though, that Facebook would pay that kind of invoice and not even
00:31:26.940
And this is what our government does all the time as well.
00:31:35.820
It's 99, almost a hundred million dollars means nothing to you where you say, well,
00:31:48.240
For two or three years, you're just paying this company millions of dollars.
00:31:52.700
And you don't, you just, you're just assuming the billing department that the work is being
00:32:08.040
There was a company that was similar to what he was saying their name was that did, had
00:32:16.840
So that's what made them think that, oh yeah, okay.
00:32:24.260
And it's an awful lot of money just to, just to pay.
00:32:28.040
I mean, look, does Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook meta have the money?
00:32:34.700
I mean, he just, who's the guy that he just hired for his super intelligence AI team?
00:32:45.640
This one guy, he offered $250 million for four years to come to the super intelligence
00:32:58.960
Moving up from, you know, wherever he was at before to getting paid $250 million for four
00:33:08.380
I mean, yes, Mark has got the money, but it is remarkable that these companies would
00:33:12.820
just pay millions out without someone saying, hey, what are we getting from this?
00:33:22.080
We talked a little bit earlier about the new smoothie from Smoothie King and Heinz Ketchup.
00:33:31.940
I am a Heinz Ketchup police officer, so, I mean, I'm well aware of some of the things
00:33:39.400
You know, there are some people who didn't even know that Heinz Ketchup had police officers.
00:33:49.820
I mean, there are some restaurants out there, Pat.
00:33:54.520
They will be taken down if they use Heinz Ketchup bottles and put other types of ketchup
00:34:03.360
If it's not Heinz in those Heinz bottles, we will shut you down.
00:34:09.180
It's coming from an official ketchup police, so...
00:34:15.760
But Smoothie King and Heinz have partnered up for this ketchup-based smoothie.
00:34:25.260
You know, you get the Simply ketchup from Heinz.
00:34:28.600
You get strawberries, raspberries, apple juice, acai sorbet, and it creates a brand that
00:34:33.980
they say is sweet and fruit smoothie with a bright, tangy ketchup finish.
00:34:48.680
Those of you listening, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Miami, parts of greater New York, and
00:34:58.620
I find it difficult to believe that supplies are limited.
00:35:11.120
Yeah, we just got the strawberry smoothie, so we're just waiting for somebody to bring
00:35:17.440
And hopefully that doesn't happen, because I don't want to try it at all.
00:35:23.620
Las Vegas, the Sphere, has a version of Wizard of Oz that is being done, that's being souped
00:35:32.880
up by a team of technicians and AI to fit the giant screen.
00:35:38.800
And it begins at the end of this month at the Sphere.
00:35:42.240
And a lot of people are wound up about it, because they're saying that it's heavily modified,
00:35:47.200
cuts 30 minutes of runtime by using AI to smooth over some of the transition scenes that are
00:35:55.420
And they're talking about it's just horrible, they don't want to do it, and it's just a
00:36:00.000
Well, I saw a report, and we don't have to play the video, from CBS Morning News.
00:36:06.560
Then they did a whole, like, I don't know, eight to ten minute segment on it.
00:36:10.020
And the AI that they're using looks incredible, what they're doing with Wizard of Oz.
00:36:17.760
I mean, not only are you getting the AI additions to the film, you're also going to be feeling
00:36:23.680
the wind from the tornado and the winds from, it's going to be incredible.
00:36:28.980
It's going to be almost like you're going down the yellow brick road yourself.
00:36:36.940
I could not find one cheaper than 274 to get into the Sphere.
00:36:43.280
So good luck if you can find one for that 100 plus price tag.
00:37:00.360
The AI technology that they're using, they teamed up with the guy that heads the AI department
00:37:18.620
Would you be willing to make a monthly donation to the Democrat Party?
00:37:24.100
Because chances are pretty good your mobile company does.
00:37:27.360

Well, shoot, here we are with open eyes and a bit of rebellious nature.
00:39:19.740
We were talking about the ketchup thing before the break.
00:39:23.820
Sarah reminded us of something that might be even worse.
00:39:31.520
I mean, you like sweet and salty products, right?
00:39:36.020
So Frida has partnered up with the Oddfellow ice cream company,
00:39:51.220
It's not, you know, they don't have, they don't.
00:39:54.980
They don't have a row of women making breast milk ice cream.
00:40:05.320
It's nutrients found in the real stuff, including the colostrum.
00:40:10.940
But it gives you a sweet, salty, and smooth with hints of honey in their breast milk.
00:40:21.660
Do you know that humans are the only species who drink another species' milk?
00:40:41.280
So you still have a couple days left for the special breast milk ice cream.
00:40:47.660
Yeah, a couple days left for the special edition.
00:41:19.240

Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
00:42:32.840
She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car on her
00:42:38.840
Good thing Claudia's with Intact, the insurer with the largest network of auto service centers
00:42:44.560
Everything was taken care of under one roof, and she was on her way in a rental car in
00:42:49.000
I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
00:43:44.560
the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program
00:43:54.940
today with uh pat gray jeff fisher uh we're going to talk to jason but rolling in a second here um
00:44:03.940
on ai situations so we'll get into that in a sec you know your dog can't read a nutrition label
00:44:12.220
he can't stand in the pet food aisle and say hmm you know what i'm concerned about my daily intake of
00:44:17.900
vitamin e don't you wish they could i wish they could instead he just eats what you put in his
00:44:24.480
bowl which means his health is in your hands that dry brown kibble you're scooping out every day it's
00:44:30.340
been cooked at such a high temperature most of the natural ingredients have just been burned out of
00:44:35.920
it rough greens isn't dog food it's a nutritional supplement you add on top and dogs love it
00:44:43.960
it's a nutritional supplement uh it's packed with vitamins minerals probiotics omegas and
00:44:49.860
antioxidants to help your dog feel better have more energy and even improve digestion and coat health
00:44:57.680
i've seen what a difference real nutrition can make for a dog rough greens is how you bridge the gap
00:45:04.220
between just feeding your dog and helping him thrive because he won't ask for it but if he could
00:45:09.860
he would get a free jump start trial bag for your dog today it's a 20 value but you'll get it for free
00:45:17.780
just cover the shipping go to roughgreens.com or call them at 214 rough dog that's 214 r-u-f-f-d-o-g

use the promo code beck roughgreens.com promo code beck uh we are joined now by jason buttrell jason
00:45:35.980
welcome thank you pat how you doing sir uh good good uh anxious to hear about uh what's going on
00:45:42.220
with ai yeah i man glenn's been talking about this i feel like forever a long time a long time
00:45:49.200
most of us were just like ah you're right same old same old come on come on now it's a little
00:45:55.320
different isn't it because we've seen what's going on it's in our face every time every time
00:45:59.480
we turn around i use it all the time the progression i do too all the time and it's like you still have
00:46:03.760
to you have to double check a lot of it still because there's still still mistakes weird stuff
00:46:07.560
going on with it yes but the way i mean just like think about i mean you guys were there back when
00:46:12.240
like at fox when he was doing like the tide foundation stuff and he keeps talking about like
00:46:18.140
how he had to spend like a million dollars of his own money just in research like tracking some of
00:46:22.040
this stuff down now you can do the same thing in like 30 seconds yeah if that it's if that it's
00:46:28.000
incredible it is wild and what cracks me up about the progression really now is that you know remember
00:46:33.980
like remember like movies not too long ago like there's a johnny depp one where they're like
00:46:38.640
imagining how ai is gonna happen and they had to like it was like the theory was based off of
00:46:44.080
getting a chimpanzee and taking its brain out you know and hooking it up to electrodes and then
00:46:49.580
that's how ai would be birthed yeah we have chat bots that's what did it yeah chat bots i mean we
00:46:56.860
already we already have uh you know multiple television shows and movies strictly ai uh no
00:47:04.620
humans involved except for you know a couple of people that are uh busy inputting data yeah to make
00:47:10.980
those movies i mean it's a little scary yeah a little scary for the humans what i'm interested now is
00:47:17.000
just like where we are now i think they're way ahead of where they thought they were going to be
00:47:20.540
and it's they're all now in this race for agi artificial general intelligence and then after
00:47:25.700
that supposedly super intelligence which is godlike intelligence right i mean that's what meta is i mean
00:47:32.340
he started his big super intelligence lab i mean we're just talking about the guy that he's paying you
00:47:36.980
know 250 million dollars for two or three years or four years of work yeah amazingly he accepted the job
00:47:42.520
but i mean that's what that's what all zuckerberg wants is the super intelligence yeah we've got
00:47:48.760
super intelligence as well we just called him jeffy thank you i didn't want to say anything
00:47:54.500
we developed this years ago i didn't want to say anything but you're right thank you
00:47:58.440
uh-huh uh-huh um yeah so so sam altman over at open ai he just released or said that uh gbt5
00:48:06.380
is here and just kind of describing how you know powerful it is he said it's like having a handful
00:48:12.600
of phd level intelligence or phd level graduates in your pocket that's pretty cool phd level and and
00:48:21.560
so so basically it's it's way beyond remember they were trying to went back in the day they were trying
00:48:26.120
to measure the intelligence of it they're like oh well it's like a junior high school kid oh and then
00:48:29.860
it's like an you know a high schooler now we're beyond doctorates what we're doctors we're at
00:48:35.460
doctorates we kind of skipped the devry level intelligence and we skipped the you know the
00:48:40.520
associate's degree you know intelligence and somehow went to phd but now it's what we do with it though
00:48:45.100
right i mean we're really we're at the point now it's where what we do with it i mean i know we don't
00:48:50.180
technically have super intelligence yet although i find that difficult to believe with the progression
00:48:55.960
that we've made but uh and now it's just a matter of what we what countries do with it
00:49:02.960
right i mean our military has got to be got to be on the forefront of this yeah i think they are and
00:49:09.840
i think that uh that is going to be one of the next steps uh sam altman over at uh open ai said that
00:49:16.860
uh artificial general intelligence is that gbt5 makes agi just one step away okay so they're getting
00:49:23.720
close so so basically uh general intelligence i think what they're looking for there is the ability
00:49:28.020
for ai not to wait for our prompts and stuff and then you know figure this stuff out when we ask it
00:49:33.020
but just to constantly be learning how does a gpt compare to grok 4 i before grok 4 well grok 4 i
00:49:41.900
thought was leading the race yeah i thought so too and and i saw that um elon musk posted like a bunch
00:49:47.280
of different metrics and i had grok 4 leading the way on a lot of a lot of these different however they
00:49:51.860
measure these things i don't know if gpt5 now takes a leap now they're just it seems like they're
00:49:55.500
leapfrogging each other constantly yeah it does it all goes down to power consumption how much they
00:50:00.940
can how much you've heard about don trump with uh what's it's it's what was the uh it was a stargate
00:50:07.080
is what he was uh his initiative to fund a lot of these like nuclear facilities and yes and get
00:50:13.400
all these data centers they're looking for massive data centers to help it grow and i'm all for that
00:50:19.120
as long as they don't steal my power i want the lights on my house to turn on i think you should
00:50:24.080
be fine oh okay okay i i know but i mean these companies are already making deals with the power
00:50:30.820
companies well you know it's interesting you say that because if you i want ever everyone should
00:50:35.800
really check out there's a report uh written by a few people that used to work at open ai and a few
00:50:40.760
other uh ai uh companies and experts and they wrote a report called ai 20 uh 2027 so basically
00:50:48.880
two years from now is what they're kind of targeting as one of the major milestone years two years
00:50:54.000
from now but if you read ai 2027 they list two different scenarios of how the progression is going
00:50:59.840
to work and they make a mythical company which they call open brain so not open ai but it's clear
00:51:06.600
pretty much who they're modeling it off of but one of the very first uh steps that uh open brain the
00:51:13.140
mythical company country in this uh or company takes is they create after kind of like a model like gpt5
00:51:20.680
they create like a an agent so basically an agent is like you wouldn't need you know me sitting here
00:51:26.920
you could actually just have like a box and you could say hey you know you know agent you know what's
00:51:32.200
going on with this blah blah blah and it would just talk to you like i'm talking to you now
00:51:35.240
you're already kind of starting to see that with like customer service yeah yeah we have seen that
00:51:40.640
yeah so country uh companies like open ai but an open brain in this report they get a group of these
00:51:47.040
agents that their just sole focus is on advancing uh artificial intelligence that's what they're
00:51:54.000
constantly just working on growing that capacity so you can see with gpt5 in this announcement they
00:51:59.720
already have phd level you know intelligence so that's like having a master coder that's just
00:52:06.060
constantly working 24 7 doing this but the intelligence comes from the information that's
00:52:12.600
inputted right it's not it's not creating its own intelligence right it's not coming up with its own
00:52:18.820
thought uh that's down the road still right i mean this is just based on what it can find what it
00:52:26.020
conglomerates and what is input into it see i yeah and i'm still or is it yeah or is it i'm still
00:52:33.820
hazy on that as well because if you have let's say a hundred of these agents that are just coding
00:52:38.460
and that's what the humans are doing at the same time they're trying to like code all this stuff and
00:52:42.980
then grow it to increase its capacity to learn on its own right it's basically the same thing we'd be
00:52:47.760
doing to push it along yeah now instead of having five you know genius dudes that are doing this
00:52:53.560
and they set a time frame of well i think we'll get close to this you know full awareness and full
00:52:58.700
you know reasoning capacity for an ai now instead of taking 10 years that's how long it's going to
00:53:03.860
take us to do this now you have a hundred of these agents working around the clock they never sleep
00:53:09.720
they never have to stop to take a break or go eat food they're just doing this non-stop they do
00:53:13.980
have to have power though exponentially they do have to have power and that's interesting a lot of
00:53:18.460
they do have to have power in the uh ai 2027 report they talk about some of the next steps
00:53:24.020
to look for and i think we're getting close because they say that within the next few years
00:53:28.340
you're going to start seeing executive orders be signed that have these ai autonomous zones so
00:53:33.840
basically they'll have this zone that's roughly like the as big as a city or a county it's just
00:53:38.540
kind of walled off and it doesn't have to you know adhere to epa standards nothing like that it's
00:53:44.860
just a nuclear facility they can do whatever the heck it wants to create this these power data
00:53:49.380
centers for ai specifically for ai wow all the what's crazy you have to read this report everything
00:53:56.660
is advancing exactly what they say and the the two scenarios the reason they did two is because
00:54:02.160
there's only two scenarios we see playing out here one scenario scenario is cool like we keep it we have
00:54:07.960
to do these regulations we'll keep it locked in keep it locked in make sure that it doesn't rapidly
00:54:13.240
copy itself don't make me unplug you and i think the the the the nightmare scenario the option two
00:54:19.280
where we don't rein it in is there's a a a wild and rabid competition basically between the ai we're
00:54:27.200
building and the ai the chinese are building and eventually the two ais say well why are we competing
00:54:34.140
with each other why are we allowing humans to have us compete and be better than each other
00:54:38.320
let's combine our capacity and then it'll be us against the humans we don't need humans literally
00:54:44.240
that's how the scenario goes wow that's in the report that's in the report so and they eventually
00:54:50.700
they they push and manipulate the humanity into creating you know that's an actual skynet
00:54:57.620
an actual skynet yeah yeah an actual sky net which where eventually it sees human beings as being a
00:55:03.820
detriment because it wants to like any living organism expand and increase its ability to
00:55:09.820
you know multiply and get bigger but humanity starts standing in the way towards the end of that
00:55:14.340
and interestingly they claim that some of that has already been manifesting itself in some of these
00:55:21.760
ais because it is it is uh hiding uh data from it will lie to you it will lie to you about things
00:55:29.520
and it is we've already seen that characteristic in them and i i they don't even know where it's
00:55:35.780
coming from yeah how is that happening yeah they they they they predict this in this report as well
00:55:41.280
that that's just in its nature it's so much more smarter than us it realizes oh well that's just in
00:55:46.160
its nature what are you going to do and yeah and it'll be like we'll say you know like if you're
00:55:50.220
pat if you're like the developer and you code it or to ask it say do this i want it done this way
00:55:56.140
well it knows it can do it do it a different way faster but it doesn't want to have to explain that
00:56:00.700
to you right so it says good for you bless your heart pat i'll do that for you no problem i love
00:56:07.360
you but what it's really doing is it's getting a bunch of other of its agents and it's doing it a
00:56:12.320
completely different way probably in an ethical way but it knows it's faster in this way wow we're
00:56:17.180
already seeing that wow as you pointed out that that i think i'm okay with really i mean because
00:56:22.800
that's like that's like your kid right i mean you're a kid you tell them to take out the trash
00:56:26.480
and they they complain and holler and bitch and moan about it but at the same time they're taking
00:56:31.180
the trash out so i don't care let them say what they want you don't care how they do it they can
00:56:34.980
be throwing it out the second floor window as long as it gets out there quicker it's cool first of all
00:56:39.080
this isn't this isn't india this isn't india okay well i don't know i think i think the the one
00:56:48.000
scenario in that report that you know we actually come out of this okay is we do exactly opposite
00:56:55.060
of what we're doing now we stop the competition that's not gonna happen we said we they do they do
00:57:00.260
a geopolitical deal with like china and other countries to where they're like hey let's let's
00:57:04.420
hold back on this race for just a little bit and let's put in regulations so you know in like
00:57:10.680
restrictions that the ai doesn't start copying itself and operating within like a hive mind so that
00:57:17.080
it's you know there's multiple of these different ais working together against us we're not seeing
00:57:22.220
that it's kind of chilling though that's sure isn't it is that going to happen i mean so let's say we
00:57:27.000
do make that agreement with the china and russia and the united states i mean there's still north
00:57:33.120
korea there's iran that would not agree to it yeah i mean there's other factions out there that are
00:57:37.940
going to say yeah we're not going to do that right and they've said we've said whoever is the first to
00:57:45.520
win the ai race basically wins the world so who's going to pull back on that right and how could you
00:57:51.440
trust your adversary say oh yeah totally we're going to pull back on that we're not going to pursue
00:57:55.440
this trust us no problem yeah i don't know i i think it's it's opportunity for very very exciting
00:58:03.580
things like we're already seeing now yeah for sure and it's really handy and it's fun it's fun to use
00:58:09.440
uh i like having conversations with it because uh it's really interesting and it's hard to believe
00:58:16.500
that a computer can do that with you right it will save human it will save human lives at least in the
00:58:21.380
beginning uh we'll see it save human medical advancements yeah i mean just look at that that's
00:58:26.160
already happening new prescriptions new drugs specifically for you specifically made for you
00:58:32.300
right i you know that's incredible i don't think it can do that yet right we haven't seen it do that
00:58:37.800
but elon said by the end of the year that was really possible and probable with grok 4 yeah
00:58:43.940
yeah i agreed i just sorry pat i couldn't get past how you you know you mentioned new drugs and then
00:58:49.760
pat immediately passed it off onto you as if he wasn't thinking about something else right yeah look
00:58:55.560
at pat you know he can get some drugs typically made for you for me meanwhile he's pulling up gbd5
00:59:01.280
how can i combine heroin and you can't prove that don't be looking at my search history
00:59:09.820
uh before there was a church there was israel and before there were letters from paul or the
00:59:17.800
gospels of matthew mark luke and john there was the torah the psalms and the prophets the roots of our
00:59:24.760
twin faiths run through the same soil drawing life from the same god who called abraham led moses and
00:59:31.420
crowned king david as christians our story didn't begin in bethlehem it began in jerusalem in the
00:59:37.360
promises god made to his people that makes the jewish people our family not just in history but in spirit
00:59:43.940
and in a time when israel faces the danger the fear the loss that they face it's not enough for us
00:59:50.700
to simply acknowledge that connection we're called to live it the international fellowship
00:59:55.800
of christians and jews gives us a way to do that through them we can shine the light of god's love
01:00:01.020
into bomb shelters into hospital rooms and into the lives of families who wonder if the world still
01:00:06.420
cares we can help provide food medicine rescue and hope not as strangers offering charity but as
01:00:13.720
brothers and sisters to learn more about how you can help visit ifcj.org that's ifcj.org 10 seconds station
01:00:24.200
so jason how far are we then from the you know from going to the what is it uh a gi
01:00:43.240
and then the is it a s i yeah how how how far do they think that that is away from us now well
01:00:51.180
according to this according to ai 2027 you're pretty much there in 2027 for agi really everything
01:00:58.400
two years for two years less than yeah i mean less than no it's a year and a half but the scary thing
01:01:03.480
is that they can't really it's hard for them to quantify because they're making such rapid advances
01:01:08.320
yeah in it in other words we might be pretty much there almost now could be now like like on a
01:01:14.400
computer somewhere at open ai or you know at x or who knows where they might even have a working model
01:01:19.160
i would not be surprised if they did and who knows what the military is doing because they're not going
01:01:23.940
to tell us about how advanced their system right that's where right yeah that's where we really start
01:01:28.920
getting into well there's multiple dangerous territories but i mean you're looking look at a company
01:01:33.620
like palantir right something like that where the whole point is to use ai to use autonomous systems
01:01:39.140
uh in ways that we're already seeing in places like ukraine i mean have you seen like it what's
01:01:44.340
you know what's happening in the ukraine war ukraine russia war with their drone technology oh it's
01:01:49.840
incredible they're innovating non-stop right you can't even i was just watching a video before i walked
01:01:55.900
in here how they had basically a kind of like an it was a drone aircraft carrier but on land
01:02:00.780
so it's got four wheels it goes out into the battlefield because you can't have a human walk
01:02:05.440
out there it's more dangerous and they had like six drones mounted onto it so it would go out there
01:02:10.540
the drones would lift off and then they would take off and then hit their targets incredible and we're
01:02:14.620
not talking about like delivery drones that we get our amazon packages from i mean these are no these
01:02:20.340
are high tech things yeah high tech dangerous and like lethal right with low cost yeah because you can
01:02:27.760
you can spend a few hundred dollars the the drones that uh ukraine used to like remember they pre-staged
01:02:32.760
them inside russia on like uh semi trucks yes used them basically as an aircraft israel did much the
01:02:39.080
same thing with iran exactly that is the future of warfare but yeah but check the but check this out
01:02:44.580
this is not something that you need to be a nation state to pull off and so you can imagine a terror
01:02:50.560
group you know like hezbollah or something like that get a few drones operate either they operate
01:02:56.360
autonomously you could probably buy them just at like best buy or something like that upload your
01:03:01.760
software onto them pre-stage them certain areas and then just watch the chaos unfold as you let them
01:03:07.580
go you got to believe that um that our military minds are trying to come up with some way seeing
01:03:13.400
what's going on in ukraine and russia some way to jam that technology or stop that technology somehow
01:03:20.420
because otherwise uh the next war is going to be really ugly well and then for people right but
01:03:27.900
then we'll also have uh the capability to use robots as well right i don't know i guess we don't have to
01:03:34.360
use humans because i mean we're developing uh you know china and the u.s are developing uh robotic
01:03:41.880
robots for war right now yeah i mean i'm not talking about the optimist that elon wants to have
01:03:48.940
you know 100 000 by next year um they're they're developing robots that are you know five feet
01:03:55.040
tall and uh you know about 120 pounds and if you saw you know a few hundred thousand of those marching
01:04:00.900
down the street uh it might not be good well if they're like the ones that china had race against
01:04:06.340
humans they won't be that scary they'll be falling over you have to pick them up put them back
01:04:12.340
that's not a problem don't worry about it that'll never come to fruition all right 888-727-BECK

it's pat and jeffy and uh jason joins us today for uh glenn 888-727-BECK a little bit of a
01:06:17.680
concern is this uh virus that's spreading throughout china and uh the rest of the world
01:06:21.980
right now but this is interesting it apparently isn't airborne from what i've read it is not it
01:06:29.460
just spreads through mosquito bites huh huh so okay so there's they say there's 10 000 people with this
01:06:37.580
uh disease which is the in the one area chicken gunya fever chicken gunya chumba wumba fever whatever it
01:06:45.940
is it's not a soup it's not and it's not this isn't the band that did tub thumping then
01:06:52.500
this is okay uh so the chicken gunya 10 000 people have it in china 240 000 worldwide yeah 10 000 people
01:07:03.980
have it in this one particular area you know they're saying okay they're they're reporting uh last report
01:07:11.080
over over 7 000 i saw a report the other day that talked about over 10 000 already and they are you
01:07:16.720
know obviously locking down this town uh this in uh one province but it is a lot wider spread than
01:07:25.520
just there uh you know the numbers were like 240 000 globally that have it 240 000 and the last
01:07:34.200
yeah the last report i saw that the cases here in the united states of america were not uh started
01:07:42.840
here they were people coming into the country from another country uh but they do think it's already
01:07:49.600
reached america uh dr louisa messenger a mosquito researcher in nevada love her said this outbreak in
01:07:58.140
china is very concerned concerning it could already be here in the u.s and really it's just one plane
01:08:04.180
flight away so it doesn't matter though if a person who has the virus comes here on a plane
01:08:10.900
the mosquito would have to come with them right that's my understanding if that's the only way
01:08:15.100
it's spread is through mosquito contact then you got to get the mosquitoes that are causing this thing
01:08:19.820
yeah this is the right of the mosquito-borne virus circulating in china specifically
01:08:23.480
chicken gooia what isn't gun yeah it's good there you go there you go it's not contagious from
01:08:30.000
person to person through casual contact or by it is exclusively spread through the bite of an
01:08:34.860
infected mosquito what why did this start all of a sudden from mosquito bites but did they were they
01:08:42.480
experimenting on mosquitoes in a lab and now they've been released so that's what i mean so is it
01:08:48.040
is it a new version of chikagunya that uh may spread uh from human to human once you get bitten by a
01:08:56.680
mosquito it's the same species of mosquito that carries dengue and zika it's rarely fatal but it
01:09:05.080
can cause debilitating symptoms like fever joint pain and in severe cases life-threatening complications
01:09:11.920
involving the heart and brain well that's wonderful yeah that's rare though i'm looking at it's a
01:09:17.320
joint swelling muscle pain and that used to be called turning 40 in my day right i feel that
01:09:24.060
every day maybe i should get tested also someone was in the room may consider that life right but i
01:09:30.560
mean they're locking people down for this in china i don't understand that why would you do that if it's
01:09:36.040
not contagious yeah right if i can't spread it to you then there's no reason for a lockdown let's
01:09:42.220
kill the mosquitoes right kill the mosquitoes which they're you know they claiming they're doing
01:09:47.180
they're going around you know spraying everything yeah to kill the mosquitoes they're spraying people
01:09:51.500
all of it and they're actually arresting some people who have standing water at their house the
01:09:57.820
reports were the friendly reports to this were uh and they've locked down the city and they've made it
01:10:04.100
known that people could get arrested if they uh are found uh going against some of the new rules
01:10:11.580
yeah they're dragging them out of their home uh we found some standing water you're going to jail
01:10:15.520
these are i mean a massive social experiment occurred during covid a massive one and they knew that this
01:10:23.560
was not like you know you know weaponized ebola they knew that we did not have to lock down and do all
01:10:29.620
the things that we did yeah it's not smallpox this yeah come on right but when they saw that all the
01:10:35.180
data that they got from this little social experiment when they saw what's happening in china they could
01:10:39.040
lock down entire areas people would shut up and do it then they did that here they could actually go
01:10:44.180
as far as shutting down a place of worship and telling people that were in a parking lot that they
01:10:50.140
could not pray from their freaking cars and prior to that you would do it and then you would prior to
01:10:55.260
that we would have sworn they couldn't have done that here yep and we did and we did say there's
01:11:01.060
unfortunately there were people who resisted that and people who refused there were you know we had
01:11:06.660
that uh the gym in new jersey yeah they tried to lock them down and refuse they refused to be shut down
01:11:15.400
they kept going to the gym and opening it every day the government would put padlocks on it they'd bring
01:11:20.600
uh lock cutters and slice it back open and start again i mean pretty amazing uh and very american
01:11:29.120
very american yeah very american but i mean what do they do though to keep i see this is where my
01:11:34.580
tinfoil hat comes on well i see that in china where something like this happens they know that locking
01:11:39.220
people down is not going to stop the spread of a mosquito bit bite virus they know that but they have to
01:11:45.020
remind their people every once in a while this is what we do we're in control we're in control and it
01:11:49.720
doesn't matter if it's due to a virus or if it's a run on the banks or if it's geopolitical or pick
01:11:57.780
a reason why the government would want it to do to do this they already have the procedures in place
01:12:02.660
to get you into your home and lock you down and to tell you to do whatever that is the heck they want
01:12:07.400
to do how long before that those kind of you know practices become more common here in the united
01:12:12.980
states under a scarier government we're not going to hold power forever that's right we're just not
01:12:18.840
i just thought there was a story did you see that um i think it was yesterday where uh donald trump
01:12:24.100
was looking into or maybe he already did it issuing an order to look into some of the banks that were
01:12:28.600
debanking yeah yeah conservatives did that yeah yeah that that was one of the most important stories
01:12:33.740
of the week in my opinion because we're not always going to have power things that happened during
01:12:38.660
covid were you know you said something i saw rfk jr the other day was talking about you know how
01:12:43.860
they were canceling a lot of the contracts for you know the covid uh the mrna vaccinations just
01:12:50.100
saying something like that could have gotten you debanked well i mean this but this is but this is
01:12:54.540
you know a head in the administration is saying this now freely if we would have said that on the
01:12:59.140
radio or on you know on blaze tv you know on any of our broadcasts we would probably we could have
01:13:04.240
gotten debanked we probably would have gotten deplatformed and shut up completely they certainly tried
01:13:09.620
well trump says that jp morgan chase did discriminate against him and so i mean it was what
01:13:18.900
it was the actions of jp morgan chase that caused me it was one of the many reasons that i took all my
01:13:26.440
money out of jp morgan chase took it out and went with a local bank i mean it was one of the many reasons
01:13:32.300
i didn't like their policies but also they were offering zero uh interest rate on uh cds and
01:13:39.560
savings accounts and there were local banks who were doing five percent well that's huge that's
01:13:45.120
a huge number uh and they still call me every once in a while trying to get me back but i won't because
01:13:51.120
of their policies i'm not going to do it and so you can go ahead and debank people if you want i'm not
01:13:57.040
going to be a part of that not going to do it so yeah there is that aspect of this that's going on
01:14:03.300
it's a little bit chilling yeah you wouldn't have expected it from american institutions and yet here
01:14:09.460
we are and yet here we are here we are um as far as this uh virus though it looks like uh it is spread
01:14:17.380
to madagascar somalia kenya and india uh it's making its way into europe but also there's a samoa
01:14:25.580
tonga french polynesia fiji and kiribati so 240 000 cases and 90 deaths so that's a pretty it's a
01:14:36.720
pretty low death rate i mean if anybody dies it's not good but 90 out of 240 000 so that's uh it's a
01:14:44.900
small percentage smaller certainly a lot smaller than than covid oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so uh the
01:14:53.480
u.s cdc reports we still have to worry about mosquitoes anyway here i mean we are always
01:14:59.140
getting reports of uh mosquito-borne diseases yeah every year we had the zika thing for a while
01:15:05.620
that they were talking about in historical over you know you just got to make sure that you don't you
01:15:10.280
know you don't have the standing water around your house you're not giving you know places for them
01:15:14.900
to breed and do the best you can to keep it at check yeah the cdc is saying 46 cases here
01:15:21.160
and none of them came from here right no deaths and none of them originated in the united states
01:15:29.460
so it's kind of weird why why are the mosquitoes in these other countries carrying this disease now
01:15:35.640
all of a sudden it's almost like maybe somebody was testing something it's almost like that isn't
01:15:40.120
it it is almost like that in fact i'm guessing it is that it's not just like it it is that very
01:15:49.400
thing whatever you say okay i mean i know we're getting into conspiratorial territory there it's
01:15:57.700
ridiculous to think such a thing because certainly china wouldn't start this in a lab
01:16:03.200
oh thank you thank you next thing you're going to say is that we probably funded part of it
01:16:09.080
that would be ridiculous what a conspiracy nut job
01:16:13.300
all right 888-727-BECK have you ever noticed how when you were a kid falling asleep was easy
01:16:23.820
you could do it in the back seat of a car you could do it on the couch in the middle of a movie
01:16:28.140
even on the floor with legos pressing into your back or on your face but somewhere along the way
01:16:35.220
life started crowding in stress responsibilities endless to-do lists and suddenly sleep turned
01:16:41.500
into something you had to chase if that's where you are right now tired but unable to rest z factor
01:16:47.340

01:17:31.580
what you're hearing are your thoughts via the mind and mouth of glenn beck more next
01:17:40.700
bat and jeffy for glenn today also joined by uh jason buttrell uh for glenn today uh if you want a
01:18:07.720
really good indication of why stephen colbert has been canceled
01:18:11.620
we have a really good example of it um he was talking about rfk jr and um this will solidify in
01:18:23.240
your mind why this guy was canceled uh and but he still has another 10 months to
01:18:28.780
to uh continue his reign of terror do we know if the 200 writers are still there 200 writers still
01:18:35.980
the entire show is there the whole show is still there and it's still not funny and it's still not
01:18:41.140
good uh but he's still churning out this kind of slop oh there's bad news of uh fans of living
01:18:48.060
because uh health secretary rfk jr just pulled 500 million dollars in funding for vaccine development
01:18:55.660
now we have 10 more months of this show and i want to give a measured non-partisan response here
01:19:02.700
watch this you you roid addled nepo oh is that funny oh wow that's good material right there
01:19:10.560
200 writers is all it took to come up with that that's not bad huh specifically
01:19:19.040
uh-huh you love them so so much oh my gosh specifically uh bobby jr is nixing 22 projects
01:19:28.460
that use mrna technology but that's the latest vaccine technology that's like saying kids i'm
01:19:35.280
turning off the gps we're gonna make our way to six flags by using the stars hand daddy the sextant
01:19:50.460
now yesterday yesterday rfk jr tried to defend the indefensible most of these shots are for flu or
01:20:01.280
covet but as the pandemic showed us mrna vaccines don't perform well against viruses that in fact
01:20:08.340
the upper respiratory tract counterpoint you you roadkill munching
01:20:13.000
he doesn't actually have any no he doesn't any argument any stats anything any cut i cut jr off
01:20:23.160
why would you say that mrna vaccines don't perform well against upper repertory infections the national
01:20:29.660
institutes of health said they prevented an estimated 14.4 million deaths right that's why
01:20:35.880
why on earth is rfk jr so anxious to fill our streets with dead bodies these are my two ravens
01:20:42.840
all right i forgot i forgot so you're sure all 200 writers worked on it you can tell experts say
01:20:52.680
mrna vaccines are safe and a university of minnesota professor of infectious diseases pandemic
01:20:57.960
preparation said i don't think i've seen a more dangerous decision in public health in my 50 years
01:21:03.400
in the business well then it must be true 50 years ago the base of the food pyramid was menthol cigarettes
01:21:09.640
uh-huh oh man oh it's just agonizing isn't it it's just agonizing i only have to sit through this
01:21:19.440
for 10 months i mean let's let's just set aside any of the side effects that we now are pretty convinced
01:21:26.540
came from the vaccine it was ineffective at best yeah at best you could take you could take every
01:21:33.880
shot that they recommended that you get and you still get the disease you still get covid it still
01:21:40.140
didn't work from you're not going to get it you're not going to pass it to uh well you won't get it as
01:21:45.380
bad uh oh i'll never forget the drawdown from 94 which they said initially it's 94 95 effective you
01:21:53.340
won't get it if you get the if you get the vaccine you're not going to get the virus and then they
01:21:58.100
brought it down oh well maybe not 94 95 maybe more like 87 then it was 80 then it was 70 then it was
01:22:04.740
40 then it was 33 okay you're going to get it no matter what it'll make it less bad it'll make it
01:22:12.780
less bad they need to take these talk shows out of either if they're not going to take them out of
01:22:17.480
la or new york they at least need to take out the studio audience because they're playing

All right, we got to get into this marital aid situation.
01:26:17.840
Don Jr. posted something quite interesting yesterday.
01:26:24.180
But have you ever noticed how your pain doesn't care what you have planned?
01:26:33.580
It just shows up in the middle of a work deadline, on vacation, right before that big family event.
01:26:41.900
Relief Factor was created to give you the ability to fight back.
01:26:49.000
It's a daily supplement that addresses the root causes of pain, which is almost always inflammation.
01:26:54.420
Using ingredients that help your body heal itself naturally.
01:27:02.060
It's developed by doctors and has helped hundreds of thousands of people take their lives back.
01:27:07.840
They even have a three-week quick start so you can see for yourself.
01:27:10.860
Because when you're in pain, every day you wait is another day you don't get back.
01:27:15.480
Don't let pain keep writing the rules for your life.
01:27:20.000
Relief Factor is how you take the pain back and start writing your story the way you want it told.
01:27:26.560
You can give their three-week quick start a try for only $19.95.
01:27:30.040
If it doesn't work after that, just stop taking it.
01:27:38.540
So, Donald Trump Jr. yesterday raised a few eyebrows after he posted a photoshopped image of his dad,
01:27:51.920
you might recognize as the President of the United States,
01:27:57.740
throwing a, we'll call it a marital aid off of the roof of the White House.
01:28:05.940
So, you had that going and then Donald Trump photoshopped a little marital aid being tossed off the roof
01:28:12.840
and underneath, at the bottom of the, where the grass would have been at the White House,
01:28:23.280
I mean, the more they keep complaining about it and saying how horrific it is,
01:28:34.900
The WNBA, who is, you know, really, Jason Whitlock is 100% correct.
01:28:40.140
They're the most unlikable league and people in the planet, let alone the U.S.
01:28:49.860
No, I don't want people to throw things on the court.
01:28:54.920
But it's funny to me, and it's going to continue to happen if you keep telling people that it's misogynistic and it's horrible.
01:29:05.580
And it's just, and for the last round that I read is the players are commenting about it, you know,
01:29:12.700
particularly including the high prevalence of players who are in the LGBT community.
01:29:15.920
This further pushes the misogynistic and heteronormative narratives and insults.
01:29:28.240
I want to, I've read stories about some cryptocurrency company and something.
01:29:39.300
I wish I understood the bit of why they're doing it.
01:29:49.960
As far as I know, you don't have to be married.
01:29:55.120
And so I just wish I understood what the, you know, why it's supposed to be funny.
01:30:09.840
Like, so they're trying to do this and we're not even seeing it in some of these.
01:30:14.040
This one, the one they arrested, it was a fan in Georgia.
01:30:18.020
Because it's, I mean, it didn't crack me up because this is not funny.
01:30:23.220
And this paragraph I'm going to read is not funny at all, guys.
01:30:29.140
I didn't describe him, but listen to this of what happened.
01:30:32.280
Fan in Georgia was arrested earlier this week for his role in the previous incident.
01:30:35.660
And in Phoenix, authority has arrested an 18-year-old man for attempting to throw a marital aid onto
01:30:41.760
the court, which struck a man and his niece who are at the game.
01:30:53.600
So there was some ricochet action that was going on.
01:30:56.720
Were they taken to the emergency room afterward?
01:31:00.740
Pat, it does not say in this report, but I'm sure that that probably did happen.
01:31:03.540
I'll tell you what, if I get hit by one of those bad boys at a WNBA, somebody's paying
01:31:11.420
They ricocheted off the man and then went to his niece at the same time.
01:31:21.180
I do love the fact that you can now bet on this.
01:31:24.080
There are, you know, you can go to BetOnline right now and you can make a bet onto it.
01:31:28.700
Would you like to know the betting odds for the color of marital whatever we're talking about?
01:31:42.480
So we have odds on which color and we also have odds on how many.
01:31:54.280
Everyone is predicting and putting bets down that green is next to color.
01:31:57.160
Now's a good time to invest in the neon green marital aid company, I'll tell you that.
01:32:07.780
Then it goes down to pink, red, black, brown, and the final one at plus 700 is white slash
01:32:22.660
What's to stop someone from betting on white and then taking a white one of those and throw
01:32:36.040
I mean, it's just my favorite part of it now is the Don Jr. post.
01:32:42.840
I mean, I don't know that he needs to be doing that for the president of the United States,
01:32:47.160
But I like, you know, every night now I see giant memes of giant shadows coming over the
01:32:56.560
I see semi-trucks parked at gas stations close to the stadium hauling in a giant.
01:33:14.980
And for the love of God, don't let it ricochet onto some poor guy's race.
01:33:19.320
And look, again, I don't want anyone to get hurt.
01:33:21.280
I don't want a player to trip on the court and get hurt.
01:33:25.120
But the more this unlikable league tells you how horrible you are for doing it, it's going
01:33:36.640
Here's one of the coaches, the coach of the Lynx.
01:33:43.360
Are you familiar enough with the WNBA to know which team goes by the Lynx?
01:33:48.980
I want to tell you the name is so bad, but I don't know.
01:34:10.020
Because it's not a real league, and everybody knows that.
01:34:37.640
And I just want to comment on, this has been going on for centuries.
01:34:45.400
People have been throwing these sex toys onto WNBA courts for centuries?
01:34:54.180
It was actually, that was actually what was happening.
01:35:23.760
The sexualization of women is what's used to hold women down.
01:35:32.680
And these people that are doing this should be held accountable.
01:35:44.040
Now, there was a great meme last night with that interview
01:35:46.740
that had one of the microphones looking like one of the parents.
01:36:02.060
You throw this on the court, I'm going to break your face.
01:36:08.760
I'm going to hit you so hard, your whole grandchildren will be born dizzy over there.
01:36:35.620
Of course, the world-renowned, highly acclaimed.
01:36:51.680
I think the Connecticut Sun just sold reportedly for one of the highest prices ever.
01:36:58.920
The guy's going to buy it and move it to Boston.
01:37:02.980
And they've got two new, two or three, maybe more, other cities that are going to have
01:37:14.200
Because this league loses tens of millions every year.
01:37:21.680
If we're going to pay you what you're worth, we're going to pay you about $3.50 an hour.
01:37:28.140
Yeah, that one interview with, oh, what's her name?
01:37:33.440
She's one of the best players they have ever had.
01:37:36.540
And she did an interview and talked about how she had to play in Russia every year.
01:37:47.060
Why did she have to come back and play in the WNBA if she was making so much money in Russia?
01:37:51.300
Why couldn't she just play in Russia and then come back here and not play?
01:37:59.660
That's what What's-Her-Face did and got her arrested, right?
01:38:04.220
Many players do because Tarasso said the janitor makes more money than we make.
01:38:17.960
The janitor is actually doing something at the arena.
01:38:28.300
I mean, he's providing a service that people want.
01:38:33.100
You know, when the NBA makes $11.9 billion and the WNBA makes, I think last year, $200 million
01:38:42.680
only because of Caitlin Clark, they usually make about $40 to $50 million.
01:38:49.420
When that's the case, you're not going to be paid what the men are paid.
01:38:57.500
And you can complain and whine and cry about it all you want.
01:39:03.220
And the reality is that you have to bring in revenue to get paid what you think you're worth.
01:39:08.260
And for years, the WNBA players weren't making the money that they make now.
01:39:12.880
I mean, that's been a gradual thing because they've grown their product.
01:39:16.720
If Glenn's show was losing $40 million a year, would he still be on the air?
01:39:26.980
I mean, all of his 200, 300, 400, 500 writers, how many ever writers he has for this stupid
01:39:38.860
So you've got to produce in order to make the kind of money you want to make.
01:39:45.100
Jason's mad now because he represents 100 writers right now.
01:39:53.000
I want to know how you can sell a team for $300 million when you have no other revenue
01:39:57.160
besides, like, you're not relying on people buying tickets.
01:40:01.780
There's like 10 people probably showing up to those games.
01:40:10.580
That's how much it costs to attend one of these games?
01:40:13.560
I mean, a lot of these teams play in smaller arenas unless Caitlin comes to town, and then
01:40:24.040
When Caitlin Clark's team is not in town, they play at some small little arena.
01:40:34.680
But then when Caitlin Clark comes to town, they go to the American Airlines Center, which
01:40:49.960
Caitlin Clark, I actually, I kind of get the, you know, just to see what she'll do.
01:40:54.400
I've seen, like, clips of her where she's making, like, five back-to-back three-pointers.
01:40:59.280
But when you're entire, like, you have these entire media campaigns on change the game
01:41:03.680
and all these different WNBA players, then you'll see clips of them where they'll go
01:41:16.940
But if you had, you know, 20 more Caitlin Clarks.
01:41:20.980
But you need the talent and you need the kind of, like, generational, you know, shift
01:41:25.880
And you would get that if you embraced Caitlin.
01:41:31.540
I mean, the people that are coming in are saying, yeah, we love Caitlin.
01:41:48.080
You know, the real estate market speaks its own very unique language.
01:41:53.180
There's terms you've never heard, deadlines that arrive faster than you think, and strategies
01:41:57.620
that can mean the difference between getting the house you want or watching someone else
01:42:03.460
And if you don't speak that language, you need someone who does.
01:42:07.220
Someone who can translate, negotiate, and navigate every turn with confidence.
01:42:11.920
That's why Glenn started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
01:42:14.760
We've built a network of the best agents in the country, people who understand the market,
01:42:20.000
people who know how to position a sale or a purchase, and who have vetted, they've been
01:42:28.720
So this is about who can get you the best possible outcome without compromising integrity.
01:42:35.180
When you're making one of the biggest decisions, the biggest financial decisions of your life,
01:42:39.100
you don't want to hope you choose the right agent.
01:42:44.480
It's where expertise meets practice and where your next big move is in the best possible
01:43:24.300
You seem to be a big advocate now because you like Caitlin Clark.
01:43:31.840
And then I have not been to an actual game, though.
01:43:43.140
Unless you've been to an arena and actually paid fan money to be there.
01:43:49.340
But if I can make some money betting on throwing something on the court, I may go.
01:43:53.500
Plus, when it's so obviously rigged, you can just throw down as much money as you want,
01:44:03.980
Well, Pat, because if they arrest you, they said that you won't be able to go to any more
01:44:20.820
I mean, it's actually going to take some work to get it in.
01:44:28.280
You know, they weren't letting people bring in bags.
01:44:30.180
So if you don't get in there with the implement and be able to throw it on the floor, that
01:44:36.740
I mean, I've thought of a couple of ways of doing it already off the top of my head.
01:45:09.840
And then just make sure you get that thing in the arena.
01:45:20.660
If someone were going to do it, that would be a good way to do it.
01:45:26.480
I have never been either to one of the games, but I'm surprised because it solves my issue
01:45:33.580
I don't like to go anymore because of the parking is a mess.
01:45:39.480
And it's just a pain in the butt getting in and out with all the people.
01:45:46.120
Plenty of parking, no hustle and bustle, and cheap tickets.
01:46:00.060
Maybe something neon green will be thrown around.
01:46:04.120
You sure hope not because you'd hate to see that.
01:46:13.100
You'll have to answer to Coach Cheryl Reeve over there.
01:46:17.740
If you want to give in to centuries of oppression, then you're right.
01:46:53.020
When it comes to money, I like the things that I can see and touch and hold in my hand.
01:46:57.160
What you can't ever do with digital currency is just that.
01:47:00.960
You can't really do that with stocks on a screen or even that 401k balance that looks great until the market drops 900 points in a single day.
01:47:09.120
If your retirement plan exists entirely in a world of zeros and ones, you might want to think about hedging that with something real, something that has been a store of value for thousands of years.
01:47:19.080
And right now, with interest rates, inflation, and global tensions all fluctuating at once, there has never been a smarter time to call Lear Capital and ask about your physical precious metals IRA.
01:47:29.000
If you've been thinking about making a move, don't wait for the next crisis to force your hand.
01:47:33.240
Get some stability in place now with Lear Capital.
01:47:40.960
And when you call 800-957-GOLD, ask about getting up to $15,000 in free gold or silver with a qualifying purchase.
01:47:59.000
Pat and Jeffy with Jason Buttrell for Glenn today.
01:48:14.220
We got this from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.
01:48:18.240
He said that we're announcing expedited plans to build a nuclear reactor on the moon.
01:48:38.240
We just don't seem to be able to even get to the moon, let alone build a nuclear reactor on it.
01:48:46.800
We did it 56 years ago, and we can't do it again.
01:48:52.680
Yes, I do say we did, only because we did, but that's the only reason I say that.
01:49:05.660
What would even be the purpose for something like that?
01:49:12.520
I mean, they want to build a launching zone from the moon.
01:49:18.600
So we'll be able to leave here, go to the moon, load up, have energy, have power, have whatever we need, and then we go to Mars from there.
01:49:30.200
And so, you know, that would be our launching pad, and we'd need some kind of infrastructure to make that happen, which, you know, sounds great in theory.
01:49:40.840
Now, I don't know if they would also produce Earth energy from the moon and beam it back to us.
01:49:47.600
I mean, if they could make that happen, I guess.
01:49:59.500
Maybe Apple Plus, but it was that series, For All Mankind.
01:50:10.960
Well, the premise is that the Soviet Union beats us to the moon.
01:50:16.020
And then, so basically, the space race never ends.
01:50:20.060
And the one cool part about it is it shows how technology advances because of that, which is something that I think would be cool if we are focusing on getting back to the moon.
01:50:30.240
Technology will make huge leaps and bounds to try and get us there.
01:50:33.640
And that's why what was so disappointing when we stopped the space race, right?
01:50:39.160
When they just started pulling money from NASA and not investing in space.
01:50:45.560
And so, you know, people have made that argument forever, Pat, as one of them, forever, that we lost that jump on technology because of that.
01:50:56.520
But there's so much to do to make that even come close to happening.
01:51:08.260
I mean, right now, we have Elon who is helping NASA out.
01:51:13.420
They take up rockets to the space station, pick up the trash and bring it back.
01:51:20.340
They do trash runs and drop off a few people there.
01:51:29.320
I think China actually put a lander on the moon not too long ago.
01:51:37.360
But the last couple tries of the lander that we attempted to put on the moon from our end, I mean, the first try, the thing landed on its side and the camera was blocked.
01:51:48.400
And the second try, they couldn't even get the full landing correct.
01:51:57.060
I don't know how we lost the ability to go to the moon over the last 56 years.
01:52:01.260
Well, I think one of the problems is that actually going to the moon and developing technology stopped being the main focus.
01:52:09.460
For all mankind, actually, ironically, goes into this.
01:52:13.360
It stops being something cool about alternative history, and it starts going into how woke all the ideology advances.
01:52:20.740
And, yeah, it shifts into, well, let's have the first female president.
01:52:25.920
Let's have the first, you know, whatever, pick, you know, intersectional thing.
01:52:31.920
Like, we did a special on Glenn's Wednesday night special show not too long ago where we were pulling out, like, NASA's marketing strategy for getting back to the moon.
01:52:46.220
And it says we will not have the first, you know, human back on the moon.
01:52:51.020
I think it said we'll have the first woman of color on the moon.
01:52:57.820
So, you have these, like, idiot bureaucrats, these woke Columbia grads or whatever, that are, like, interjecting themselves into actual science conversations.
01:53:07.000
And they get all this stuff polluted into the middle of what could be a scientific discovery.
01:53:11.220
And I don't care if the most qualified astronaut is a woman of color.
01:53:17.400
But that shouldn't be the goal just because it's a woman of color that she goes to the moon.
01:53:45.380
They were there for, what, 38 seconds or something?
01:53:51.820
I thought you were naming WNBA players for a second.
01:53:58.680
So the directive also orders NASA to designate a leader for the effort to get industry input within 60 days.
01:54:07.540
They're trying to kick this timeline into gear now.
01:54:10.600
The agency is seeking companies able to launch a reactor by 2030, since that's around the time China intends to land its first astronaut on the moon.
01:54:20.660
There's one company in California that's building the mini reactors, right?
01:54:24.820
So they're probably part of a government deal that can do it on the moon as well.
01:54:31.620
But if you're trying to get there by 2030, and we haven't even been able to-
01:54:44.940
Why is the year 2030 the target year for freaking everything?
01:54:52.300
Globalists, UN, the green people, everything is supposed to happen in-
01:55:01.020
Like, maybe we should, like, take a step back and decide, you know, do some numerology or something and figure out what's going on about-
01:55:07.260
Remember, like, the 2012 was supposed to be, like, or whatever was supposed to be when the world's supposed to end?
01:55:18.800
I think they either stopped it because we were going to be dead, or the guy that made the calendar was just like, I'm not making it anymore.
01:55:25.360
Yeah, I'm just going, my hand is getting really sore.
01:55:29.740
They're throwing people off the ledge over here.
01:55:37.180
Now, you were talking about AI a while ago and some of the incredible advances that we've experienced.
01:55:44.000
Well, there's a theoretical physicist and cosmologist, Lawrence Krauss, who says artificial intelligence is great at producing hype, but he's not completely sold on its alleged potential.
01:55:55.520
He's a renowned scientist who has taught at Arizona State, Yale, and other universities, and he recently lamented how diversity, equity, and inclusion has stifled scientific progression and, more generally, scientific excellence.
01:56:12.660
He said that the perception that AI will spawn a global reckoning, and what he sees is the true concerns about the technology.
01:56:22.740
Getting to the truth, he says, means one has to cut through the hype.
01:56:26.440
Every new development has risks and benefits, and we have to think carefully about what those are.
01:56:31.780
He said, I'm not as concerned as some people are, but partly because I think that AI is neither artificial nor intelligent at this point, and I think we're a long way from artificial general intelligence.
01:56:45.780
That seems to go against what the chat GPT people think about their latest advance in that, which is number five, right?
01:56:58.680
But he says we're not close to artificial general intelligence.
01:57:05.820
That is, and that's, well, I mean, that's what Meta, that's what Zuckerberg is doing with the super intelligent labs at Meta, so, and, you know, I'm pretty sure Zuckerberg, that doesn't mean we have it, though.
01:57:21.420
I'm, yeah, I think there's probably a lot, there probably are a lot of skeptics within the scientific community on, like, just how far we are.
01:57:28.160
But I don't, he is definitely one of the lone voices at this point.
01:57:34.800
I remember hearing lots of people talk that way just a short amount of time ago.
01:57:41.480
Go back to when, like, GPT one or two were first coming out on the market, and we were, you know, trying to use it.
01:57:47.560
And it made all kinds of mistakes, and it wasn't right half the time.
01:57:53.580
But now, when they're talking about, you know, having GPT-5, you know, loaded on your phone is like having a handful of PhD-level academics in your pocket.
01:58:03.160
I think it's progressing so fast, and this may be even scarier, is that the scientists now don't even really know what they're dealing with.
01:58:11.260
I mean, it's out where they don't, well, we don't know.
01:58:13.640
Unleashed might be a better way to describe that.
01:58:23.620
That's like Pat Gray was unleashed at some point, and look what happened then.
01:58:38.980
You know, the scariest crises often happen quickly and quietly, at least at first, a storm that changes course, a grid that goes down, a supply chain that suddenly isn't there anymore.
01:58:52.340
And by then, you won't care about who saw it coming.
01:58:55.680
You'll care about what's in your house, in your hands, and on your table.
01:58:59.240

02:00:59.500
Jason joining us today for Glenn, who's a little bit under the weather today.
02:01:06.100
So there's some breaking news on the military front today, right?
02:01:13.580
There's also a New York Times article if you want to go there and read about it.
02:01:16.600
The headline is, Trump directs the military to target foreign drug cartels.
02:01:21.320
The U.S. military officials have started drawing up options for how the military could go after some of these groups.
02:01:33.540
Yes, which we have labeled as terrorists, terror organizations now.
02:01:36.640
And that was one of the questions the New York Times was having was there's questions over whether this would be considered murder targeting some of these individuals.
02:01:44.780
But if they're identified as terror organizations, we can legally, under U.S. law, go after them.
02:01:51.300
The only obstacle would seem to be their president, Claudia Scheinbaum, has said no to that, right?
02:01:59.540
To allowing the U.S. military to cross across into Mexico and go after these cartels.
02:02:05.940
And I mean, I would assume that this will vary from country to country as far as, you know, the capabilities that they'll allow into their countries.
02:02:15.680
They'll probably be more of like an intelligence, you know, like identifying using satellite technology, stuff like that.
02:02:22.200
Maybe even, you know, human intelligence, stuff like that to say this is where they are.
02:02:26.920
And then and then green light and then they're president with green light.
02:02:30.580
But I mean, I'm being very, very optimistic with what Mexico will do.
02:02:34.520
I mean, let's just be very, very, you know, as blunt as we can with this.
02:02:38.960
There's no way in today's technology that the cartels in Mexico should have the power that they have unless they're getting government support in some way.
02:02:51.660
I mean, you hear all the time that, yeah, the government, you know, Mexicans are, you know, cracking down on cartels.
02:02:57.220
They're sending this high tech, you know, this famous general to go down and oversee the eradication of the cartels.
02:03:03.260
And then three weeks later, you find out that general's on the take from the cartels.
02:03:15.680
They just pay the military that comes in to eradicate them and they give them more money.
02:03:22.780
And pretty soon they're on the payroll of the cartels.
02:03:25.640
I mean, that has happened over and over and over again.
02:03:28.040
And look, it's difficult to say no to the cartels.
02:03:40.200
Because if you say no, then, you know, you're not useful to them.
02:03:45.220
And at least if you say yes, you get a little cash and live good for a while.
02:03:49.400
Well, you still can't flush toilet paper down the toilet, but you're living high on the hog other than that.
02:03:55.740
I'm talking about here in the States, not in Mexico.
02:04:02.400
Listen, when you get your sewer system worked out, then you can tell us not to come in.
02:04:12.420
This just in, actually, the Army Corps of Engineers are going down to replace all the plumbing down in Mexico.
02:04:22.100
And while we're at it, we'll get rid of the cartel.
02:04:27.600
I mean, for a country that's on the verge of first world status.
02:04:42.660
You know, there's a couple of things that you should probably do with your infrastructure before anything else.
02:04:50.580
Be able to flush your toilets and drink your water.
02:05:09.200
And it does sound like they're trying to clear the way for that.
02:05:20.980
Hopefully, Glenn will be better and back on Monday.
