Transcript

00:00:00.000 That was my father's day.
00:00:01.480 I watched sports and I cooked out and then went in the pool with the kids.
00:00:06.700 Like it was very much the day that you have.
00:00:09.400 Luckily, I skipped the, I used to hate the mowing the lawn part of every dad's life.
00:00:16.600 My dad actually owned a landscaping company when I was a kid and that was his big, big thing.
00:00:22.900 He didn't have the Hustler turf though.
00:00:24.700 He didn't have that going on for him.
00:00:26.720 So, you know, his life was somewhat miserable.
00:00:28.560 If you have Hustler turf, it's a lot of people like mowing their lawn because you could do it like nine seconds.
00:00:34.800 Hustler turf has these zero turn lawnmowers.
00:00:37.780 They're amazing.
00:00:38.640 They've been perfecting them for over 55 years.
00:00:41.380 Professional landscapers and homeowners now buy Hustler because of their durability and heavy duty construction.
00:00:47.120 You're not going to find any flimsy things stamped on Hustler.
00:00:50.740 But you can go now and get your Hustler.
00:00:53.220 Go to hustlerturf.com.
00:00:55.220 Get the lawnmower that's going to make you want to mow your lawn.
00:00:57.920 Hustlerturf.com.
00:00:59.420 It's hustlerturf.com.
00:01:01.100 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:29.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:36.340 With Pat and Stu today, we've got a great show lined up for you.
00:01:39.380 Glenn returns tomorrow.
00:01:41.080 But in the meantime, a lot to talk about.
00:01:45.420 Is COVID-19 over?
00:01:48.080 Dave Portnoy from Barstool Sports declared it such.
00:01:51.960 Oh.
00:01:52.700 And had his account suspended, of course, because of it.
00:01:55.900 You can't do that.
00:01:57.160 You cannot.
00:01:58.040 And he's the official declarer, too.
00:02:00.140 He is.
00:02:00.560 I believe, yeah.
00:02:01.500 So, good thing Jack shut him down right away.
00:02:05.280 Also, some controversy about just a tragic accident.
00:02:10.080 Or was it?
00:02:11.400 Was it a terrorist act at the gay pride parade?
00:02:15.260 We'll get into that and lots more in 60 seconds.
00:02:21.800 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:24.080 Since the pandemic started, one-fifth of homeowners have refinanced their homes.
00:02:28.660 That's incredible.
00:02:29.240 20%.
00:02:29.800 Look, it's a smart decision.
00:02:31.240 If you haven't been able to do that yet, you could be missing out on hundreds of dollars per month.
00:02:36.180 The question is, if you're one of the 80% who hasn't gotten around to it yet, what are you waiting for?
00:02:42.160 Interest rates are still at very impressive lows.
00:02:44.560 You might see those go up in the future here.
00:02:48.340 I know.
00:02:48.800 That's what I'm expecting.
00:02:50.040 American Financing is there for you.
00:02:52.260 You can do this today.
00:02:53.600 They're going to go over your finances with you.
00:02:55.920 See if something like a refinance or a consolidation loan would help you out.
00:02:59.820 There's no obligation, no upfront or hidden fees.
00:03:03.220 Maybe, best of all, there's no pressure.
00:03:04.960 Very easy.
00:03:05.560 American Financing isn't working for the banks.
00:03:07.660 They're working for you.
00:03:08.940 It's pretty normal to think about things like pay raises rather than trimming costs.
00:03:13.360 But you know what?
00:03:13.840 It comes to the same thing.
00:03:15.260 It's the same dollar in your pocket.
00:03:17.320 Don't be one of those 80% who aren't doing this.
00:03:19.800 Call American Financing today.

00:03:47.420 Slash.
00:03:48.300 Slash.
00:03:49.560 Co.
00:03:51.260 Just look it up and ask Jeeves.
00:03:55.480 All right.
00:03:56.360 You heard about the tragedy.
00:03:57.620 No doubt in Fort Lauderdale at the LGBTQQIA2 plus pride parade.
00:04:04.040 You doing double Q there now?
00:04:05.500 Yeah, yeah.
00:04:06.080 Oh, yeah.
00:04:06.420 Because I've noticed the Q is sort of a controversial part of the acronym, if that's what it is.
00:04:15.540 LGBTQIA2 plus was that way for a while.
00:04:18.660 And when you look at what the Q means, it would give you several things.
00:04:22.020 Yeah.
00:04:23.380 Queer.
00:04:24.020 Yes.
00:04:25.400 Questioning.
00:04:26.140 Yes.
00:04:26.400 Isn't there one more or two?
00:04:27.840 I only know about queer questioning, which is why I always do the two Qs.
00:04:30.900 So you double Q.
00:04:31.520 I am upset that some people leave out either the queer or the questioning.
00:04:38.760 I don't think either group should be left out.
00:04:41.760 And it's deep within me, so I say it correctly every time.
00:04:47.860 LGBTQIA2 plus.
00:04:50.900 Yes.
00:04:51.280 And plus is much worse than the Q.
00:04:54.560 Because plus seems to just say everything else.
00:04:57.020 It says everybody else.
00:04:57.660 Whatever else.
00:04:58.080 So why do they just call it plus?
00:04:59.140 Because we don't know what else there is right now, but we're going to discover it soon.
00:05:02.820 Okay.
00:05:03.360 So.
00:05:03.780 So can we, so anything that we discover, we have to put in there.
00:05:06.640 Oh, absolutely.
00:05:07.640 Yeah.
00:05:07.900 With another letter.
00:05:08.620 Because it would be easy to just say, how about L plus?
00:05:11.700 Right.
00:05:12.100 That would cover G, B, T, Q, I, A, 2.
00:05:14.620 Because we know about them, so you must use their letters.
00:05:18.220 Okay.
00:05:18.920 Yeah.
00:05:19.320 That's like when they were doing this AAPI hate.
00:05:24.000 AAPI?
00:05:24.520 Yeah.
00:05:25.320 Which is?
00:05:26.380 I'm sorry, you don't know.
00:05:27.500 Do you not know?
00:05:28.640 I do not know AAPI hate.
00:05:30.400 Okay.
00:05:31.040 Asian American and, of course, Pat.
00:05:33.700 Oh, Pacific Islander.
00:05:34.740 Pacific Islanders.
00:05:35.480 Yes.
00:05:35.900 Yes.
00:05:36.440 Now, Atlantic Islanders, we don't care if you hate them.
00:05:40.140 Okay.
00:05:40.360 If you are from an Atlantic-based island, if you're from Bermuda, we can hate you all we
00:05:45.940 want.
00:05:46.220 Ha.
00:05:46.860 That's totally fine.
00:05:47.940 But if you're in the Pacific Ocean.
00:05:49.860 Then no.
00:05:50.360 Then, and that island sits there, absolutely hate is bad.
00:05:54.780 Now, they should do AAPI plus hate, and then we'd know, you know, if you live on the outer
00:06:01.980 banks on an island, you cannot be hated as much.
00:06:08.540 Okay.
00:06:09.180 Okay.
00:06:09.680 Yeah.
00:06:09.920 But as of right now, if you're living on, let's say, Tybee Island off the coast of Savannah,
00:06:15.780 Georgia, you can be hated.
00:06:17.820 Wow.
00:06:18.640 Absolutely fine to hate those people.
00:06:20.300 But if you're in Tonga, absolutely not.
00:06:21.680 If you're in Tonga, no.
00:06:23.020 Absolutely not.
00:06:23.940 Those are PIs.
00:06:25.320 And PIs cannot be hated.
00:06:26.960 Yeah.
00:06:27.180 So, that's how we get LGBTQQIA2+.
00:06:32.300 And, you know, some of the lesser known people in that group, the intersex and the asexual,
00:06:41.020 I don't think they get enough airtime.
00:06:43.600 I really don't.
00:06:44.680 I don't think they, and that's a hate in and of itself.
00:06:46.940 Now, on your show, Pat Gray Unleashed, you did do a 14-part series.
00:06:50.100 I did, yes.
00:06:51.140 On intersex and asexual.
00:06:52.420 And then a 17-part series on asexual.
00:06:55.260 Yes.
00:06:55.640 Yes.
00:06:55.880 Yes, and so you've been giving them the attention they deserve.
00:06:58.960 I've tried to make up for it.
00:07:00.860 But I'm only one person, and the mainstream media will not cooperate.
00:07:04.940 They don't care.
00:07:05.540 They don't care.
00:07:07.000 A lot of times, they'll just say the LGBT community.
00:07:10.000 Yeah, they will.
00:07:10.500 Which is disgusting.
00:07:11.880 It's despicable, and it's hateful.
00:07:13.420 Because if you don't throw the plus in, then you're really, I mean, at least the plus gives
00:07:17.660 you plausible deniability.
00:07:19.340 Some coverage.
00:07:20.500 Like, well, we just included them in the plus.
00:07:23.140 Right.
00:07:23.680 Right?
00:07:24.120 Yes.
00:07:24.400 Uh, but no, not, not the media lately.
00:07:26.880 They've been saying LGB, remember, LGBT, because I remember when we started The Blaze, it was
00:07:33.460 GBTV, and everyone pointed out that we should just add an L and make it LGBTV.
00:07:39.280 Right.
00:07:39.860 It would make it a lot easier, and we'd probably get, like, funding from the government for our
00:07:44.220 evil right-wing conservative news source.
00:07:46.440 Sure.
00:07:46.740 It could have worked.
00:07:48.080 But we didn't do it.
00:07:49.080 We did not.
00:07:49.660 We did not do it.
00:07:51.660 Um, so, as we celebrate this month, you know, it's not a day.
00:07:56.560 It's not a week.
00:07:58.300 We have to celebrate an entire month.
00:08:00.840 That's, uh, that's how seriously we take LGBTQQIA2 plus month.
00:08:06.820 Uh, Pride Month is fantastic, and at a Pride celebration, though, they had a real bad tragedy,
00:08:13.340 uh, where a truck ran into a crowd of people, killed one of them, badly injured another.
00:08:20.340 Uh, that person's in the hospital.
00:08:21.800 So, immediately, the Democrat mayor of Fort Lauderdale jumped all over it as a terrorist
00:08:30.120 attack.
00:08:31.020 Hmm.
00:08:31.860 And so did everybody on Twitter.
00:08:35.060 All the left-wing idiots on Twitter were talking about the terrorist attack, the right-wing extremists,
00:08:40.380 the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, over and over and over and over.
00:08:43.660 It turns out the person who did it got his foot stuck between the brake and the gas pedal
00:08:49.880 was, is actually a gay person who was participating in the parade and was, in fact, a member of
00:08:59.260 the gay chorus and was wearing the t-shirt of the gay chorus and just accidentally did
00:09:04.620 that.
00:09:04.800 I mean, it's really sad.
00:09:06.300 But for everybody to jump to the conclusion immediately that it's some white, enraged,
00:09:13.960 homophobic person, just not true.
00:09:16.840 Just not accurate.
00:09:18.220 No, it's very typical, though, right?
00:09:20.960 So typical.
00:09:21.860 There's no reason to believe when a car accident happens that it's terrorism.
00:09:27.560 Let's see.
00:09:28.000 Right.
00:09:28.320 There's no reason to believe that.
00:09:30.240 But that's all that these groups seem to care about.
00:09:32.800 They don't care about the actual people involved.
00:09:35.540 Not in the least.
00:09:36.300 They only care about whether they can use it on Twitter to score points, retweets.
00:09:41.680 I don't even understand it.
00:09:43.540 It's so crazy.
00:09:45.260 It's the same thing with Black Lives Matter.
00:09:48.440 Black lives are like nine zillionth on their list of priorities.
00:09:52.320 That I promise you.
00:09:53.500 They don't care.
00:09:54.460 No doubt about it.
00:09:55.220 It has nothing to do with black lives.
00:09:56.580 We obviously, like if it had something to do with black lives, they would be focusing
00:10:00.460 on the 99% of murders that aren't police officers.
00:10:05.080 Obviously, they don't care about this.
00:10:09.100 This is something completely different.
00:10:11.460 And we're supposed to play along with it and act as if this is an honest, earnest effort
00:10:17.500 when clearly it's not.
00:10:19.220 Clearly, it's not.
00:10:19.920 The mayor of Fort Lauderdale, Dean Trentalis, said this is a terrorist attack against the
00:10:27.800 LGBT community.
00:10:29.800 I'm sorry.
00:10:30.820 Again, leaving off.
00:10:31.980 The QQIA 2 plus?
00:10:33.780 Thank you.
00:10:34.300 Yes, exactly.
00:10:35.420 So those people weren't victimized in this?
00:10:37.360 I guess not.
00:10:38.220 Just the lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and trans people were.
00:10:42.300 They were the only ones, terrorists.
00:10:44.160 Terrorized.
00:10:44.540 So no one who was questioning was victimized in this attack?
00:10:47.280 No.
00:10:47.600 Okay.
00:10:47.940 Nor the queer.
00:10:48.980 What about the two-spirit?
00:10:50.340 No.
00:10:50.900 They were not victimized.
00:10:51.680 And again, I will point out, and I don't want to out you on the air.
00:10:55.200 That's not my goal here.
00:10:56.320 Obviously, we're doing the show.
00:10:57.940 We work together.
00:10:58.920 But your series on two-spirits was only eight episodes long.
00:11:02.240 Much shorter than your asexual or...
00:11:05.240 And I don't even know what your pansexual series was.
00:11:08.440 I barely could...
00:11:09.120 I missed it.
00:11:09.960 I missed a couple of shows, and it was over.
00:11:11.620 Yeah.
00:11:12.100 I know.
00:11:12.440 I'm sorry.
00:11:13.040 I apologize for that.
00:11:13.340 You clearly...
00:11:14.740 I'm working on eight more episodes.
00:11:17.320 Okay.
00:11:17.680 It'll be part two.
00:11:19.100 That just hasn't happened yet.
00:11:20.620 Oh, okay.
00:11:21.080 But it's coming.
00:11:21.720 Okay, good.
00:11:22.240 It's coming soon.
00:11:23.360 So he says, this is a terrorist attack against the LGBT community.
00:11:27.760 This is exactly what it is.
00:11:29.680 Hardly an accident.
00:11:30.920 It was deliberate.
00:11:32.800 It was premeditated.
00:11:34.440 Oh, my gosh.
00:11:35.480 And it was targeted against a specific person.
00:11:38.260 Luckily, they missed that person, but unfortunately, they hit two other people.
00:11:43.640 He's alluding to the fact that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was in the area.
00:11:48.540 Right.
00:11:49.000 And I think he's saying they were trying to kill her.
00:11:51.820 This is bizarre because he's providing specifics.
00:11:54.500 Yeah, right.
00:11:55.160 Of the mindset of the attacker.
00:11:57.020 That he's just making up.
00:11:58.160 He's just making them up.
00:11:59.680 He doesn't know anything about the mindset of the attacker because there wasn't an attacker.
00:12:05.180 Right.
00:12:05.520 And Justin Knight, who is the president of the Fort Lauderdale Gay Men's Chorus.
00:12:11.480 Oh, my God.
00:12:12.700 Only gay men are involved in this chorus.
00:12:14.940 So no L's.
00:12:15.760 No.
00:12:16.100 No B's.
00:12:16.980 No T's.
00:12:17.840 No Q's.
00:12:18.560 No other Q.
00:12:19.360 No I.
00:12:20.080 No A.
00:12:20.720 No two.
00:12:21.380 And no pluses.
00:12:22.380 Right.
00:12:23.100 That's a hateful organization is what that is.
00:12:24.940 It is.
00:12:25.560 It is.
00:12:26.460 And yet, somehow, he was allowed to speak.
00:12:28.260 He said, our thoughts and prayers are with those affected by the tragic accident that
00:12:34.060 occurred when the Stonewall Pride Parade was just getting started.
00:12:37.780 Our fellow chorus members were those injured and the driver was also a part of the chorus
00:12:45.020 family.
00:12:46.420 To my knowledge, this was not an attack on the LGBTQ community.
00:12:50.260 We anticipate more details to follow and ask for the community's love and support.
00:12:55.560 So the guy, the driver, who supposedly was the, you know, hate-mongering terrorist is actually
00:13:04.580 part of the gay men's chorus.
00:13:07.060 I just, and this all came out pretty quickly, too, and yet people are just still sticking
00:13:13.920 with their agenda of trying to make this out to be some sort of white supremacy, which,
00:13:18.140 as we know, is the greatest threat that mankind faces today.
00:13:23.260 Along with climate change, yes.
00:13:24.500 Along with climate change.
00:13:25.780 Caused by straight white men and their white supremacy.
00:13:29.680 Exactly.
00:13:30.280 But they caused the climate change, which is also a huge threat.
00:13:34.060 Yes.
00:13:34.820 To the LGBTQIA2 plus community.
00:13:37.940 Well, more to that community than any other.
00:13:40.720 Disproportionate.
00:13:41.220 Disproportionately.
00:13:41.500 Can I throw in disproportionate?
00:13:42.600 Thank you.
00:13:42.920 Whenever you throw in disproportionate, then you know you're being smart.
00:13:46.740 You're being empathetic.
00:13:50.060 And you're certainly woke.
00:13:51.400 Yes.
00:13:51.780 So I always try to throw in disproportionately.
00:13:53.720 Because most, and they always talk, they're like, well, look, the genocide of violence against
00:14:01.480 the LGBTQQIA2 plus community and POCs across the world is disproportionately, it's like, if
00:14:11.120 it's a genocide, you don't need the word disproportionate.
00:14:14.360 Right?
00:14:14.740 Like that, they were never like, you know what?
00:14:16.160 Hitler is killing a lot of Aryans, but disproportionately, he's focused on Jews.
00:14:21.500 Like, that's not how that works.
00:14:23.180 Right.
00:14:23.580 It's really, you never need to make the disproportionate addition to a genocide.
00:14:31.620 Now, I don't mean to call you out, Stu, but you just made the, you just made the mistake.
00:14:37.180 Oh, no.
00:14:37.480 What did I do?
00:14:38.340 Of calling people POCs.
00:14:41.380 Right.
00:14:41.780 People of color.
00:14:42.500 Right.
00:14:42.820 Yes.
00:14:43.420 You left out the black and indigenous people in the POCs.
00:14:48.240 It's BIPOC.
00:14:49.280 Thank you.
00:14:49.800 It's B-I-P-O-C.
00:14:51.620 That's true.
00:14:52.260 It's the black indigenous people of color.
00:14:55.760 If you would.
00:14:56.800 Now, is it?
00:14:57.640 From now on, if you could just call them BIPOCs, I would appreciate it.
00:15:00.860 I believe, by the way, it's just BIPOC.
00:15:02.920 Okay.
00:15:03.260 A BIPOC.
00:15:04.040 Because that would be people of colors.
00:15:05.640 That's true.
00:15:06.360 And that's not, you can't pluralize that one.
00:15:08.680 That's true.
00:15:09.560 Which is hard to do.
00:15:10.440 So, the BIPOC.
00:15:11.600 Yes.
00:15:12.240 Yes.
00:15:12.560 And so, black, indigenous, and then people of color.
00:15:16.740 People of color.
00:15:17.520 Again, that's, the people of color is another scam.
00:15:19.680 It's a plus.
00:15:20.620 It's like black indigenous plus.
00:15:22.520 Yeah, what colors are we talking about?
00:15:23.800 BI plus.
00:15:24.100 And that used to be the knock on saying colored people.
00:15:27.060 You weren't supposed to say that.
00:15:28.560 Right.
00:15:28.900 People of color or colored people because the comeback would be, oh, what color are they?
00:15:34.320 What?
00:15:35.400 I don't know.
00:15:36.360 Just all people of color.
00:15:37.720 Right.
00:15:38.100 Non-white people.
00:15:39.160 I don't know.
00:15:40.840 So.
00:15:41.300 Certainly not white people.
00:15:42.380 They're not involved in the plus.
00:15:44.020 No.
00:15:44.760 No.
00:15:45.280 Now, if they happen to be, let's say, two-spirit or questioning their two-spiritness, then they
00:15:52.160 can be involved.
00:15:53.040 White people are allowed to be involved in the group.
00:15:57.160 As long as they have some different sexuality, yes.
00:16:00.520 Some alternate lifestyle, yes.
00:16:04.080 Then it's okay to include a white person.
00:16:05.820 But don't you dare.
00:16:07.800 Don't you dare come to me, some cisgendered white person.
00:16:11.080 Don't you do it.
00:16:13.520 Cisgendered and straight.
00:16:14.560 I don't want to hear it.
00:16:15.480 I hate cisgendered white male men.
00:16:18.200 I hate them.
00:16:18.880 Don't we all?
00:16:19.320 You know, they've ruined everything and they don't deserve to have the plus.
00:16:23.520 They don't.
00:16:24.320 They don't deserve it.
00:16:25.040 They don't deserve to be involved in the plus.
00:16:26.240 Unless, of course, then, you know, they happen to be LG.
00:16:29.640 They identify as LGBTQIA2 plus or black.
00:16:36.740 If they identify as black, then it's fine.
00:16:38.960 Right.
00:16:39.940 As white people, if they identify as black, then that's okay.
00:16:45.780 Much more identity politics coming up in 60 seconds.
00:16:49.160 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today.
00:16:58.900 888-727-BECK.
00:17:01.840 I got a little song from the Gay Men's Chorus.
00:17:06.660 Actually, they were out encouraging people to get vaccinated.
00:17:11.440 So you got a couple of great agenda items.
00:17:14.080 You have the LGBTQIA2 plus community singing.
00:17:19.180 And you have the vaccination thing being drummed into our heads, which is incredibly important.
00:17:25.220 Not enough vaccination songs out there.
00:17:28.840 Not nearly.
00:17:29.480 We need more of them.
00:17:29.960 There's only about 15,000.
00:17:31.840 And we need more of them.
00:17:33.740 And here's one of them.
00:17:36.100 Beautiful.
00:17:36.940 It's absolutely beautiful.
00:17:38.160 Vaccinate.
00:17:39.000 Vaccinate.
00:17:39.980 Make an appointment.
00:17:41.820 Make an appointment.
00:17:43.300 Vaccinate.
00:17:44.260 Make an appointment.
00:17:46.280 Vaccinate.
00:17:47.640 Vaccinate.
00:17:48.680 Get rid of COVID.
00:17:50.380 Okay.
00:17:50.920 Vaccinate.
00:17:51.980 Vaccinate.
00:17:53.020 Get rid of COVID.
00:17:55.300 Get rid of COVID.
00:18:00.280 Shots in the arm do hurt.
00:18:01.680 Gotta make time to go.
00:18:02.280 Gotta make time to go.
00:18:04.360 Just a quick shot.
00:18:05.800 Just a quick shot.
00:18:07.340 Gonna make you.
00:18:08.940 Get you to the clinic.
00:18:10.140 Now is the time to vaccinate and take back our world.
00:18:14.200 Mmm.
00:18:14.600 This is.
00:18:15.620 Is it good, right?
00:18:17.060 Don't take home.
00:18:18.040 Please let me mask.
00:18:19.260 We got to hurry.
00:18:21.760 Vaccinate.
00:18:22.780 Vaccinate.
00:18:23.520 Make an appointment.
00:18:25.000 Yeah.
00:18:25.400 Wow.
00:18:25.920 Vaccinate.
00:18:27.040 Vaccinate.
00:18:27.820 Make an appointment.
00:18:29.320 What a dumb society we have.
00:18:31.260 Oh my gosh.
00:18:32.220 All right.
00:18:32.820 Again, I'm not against the vaccines at all.
00:18:35.500 No.
00:18:36.000 I'm really not either.
00:18:37.140 I'm just hesitant.
00:18:38.380 I'm vaccine hesitant.
00:18:39.780 That's.
00:18:40.000 And you know what, Pat?
00:18:40.840 That's okay.
00:18:41.560 That's in.
00:18:41.960 You're in the plus.
00:18:42.960 That puts you in the plus.
00:18:43.940 Does it?
00:18:44.200 You can.
00:18:44.580 You can.
00:18:44.840 You can't participate in that choir because that's only for gay men.
00:18:47.600 Right.
00:18:48.100 But if it was an LGBTQQIA2 plus chorus.
00:18:52.660 Then I can participate.
00:18:53.920 Yeah.
00:18:54.340 But like I don't understand.
00:18:56.300 Just.
00:18:56.700 Just stand by your product.
00:18:58.120 Like the product.
00:18:59.220 Mm-hmm.
00:18:59.800 Product works.
00:19:00.400 People are going to want to take it.
00:19:01.140 And by the way.
00:19:01.640 Mm-hmm.
00:19:02.120 Two thirds of adults have taken it.
00:19:04.140 Right?
00:19:04.380 Like so it's not like.
00:19:05.760 They act as if 4% of people.
00:19:07.980 I know.
00:19:08.520 Have had a vaccine.
00:19:09.540 They're like we got to get it to 10.
00:19:10.860 We must get it to 10%.
00:19:12.800 Two thirds of people who are eligible to take this vaccine have taken it.
00:19:17.260 What did you expect?
00:19:18.400 100%?
00:19:19.360 Did you really expect this?
00:19:21.320 I don't know what they expected.
00:19:23.040 And in the beginning, if I'm not mistaken, didn't Fauci say we need to get to around 70%?
00:19:28.720 Yeah.
00:19:29.020 Well.
00:19:29.240 And that was his goal.
00:19:30.140 He's come out and said he was lying about that.
00:19:33.060 I mean he's come out and admitted that he was telling a little fib to the American people.
00:19:38.440 Gosh.
00:19:38.840 That actually heard amenities more like 80 or 90%, not 50 or 60% as he was saying earlier on.
00:19:44.740 Which is like inexcusable.
00:19:47.280 It is.
00:19:47.740 This guy.
00:19:48.320 He's done this several times.
00:19:49.240 Well and he's admitted the lies about the masks.
00:19:50.380 The masks.
00:19:50.840 The same thing.
00:19:51.460 Yeah.
00:19:51.600 He's had several of these.
00:19:52.860 And it's really bad.
00:19:55.260 I mean the last thing.
00:19:56.420 The only thing you can't do is tell people information you know to be untrue.
00:20:01.080 I think everybody would understand if people made mistakes.
00:20:04.080 And they did.
00:20:04.720 Right?
00:20:04.880 But yeah.
00:20:05.820 And if you would have said it in the first place, if you would have said, look, we don't
00:20:09.540 have all the answers yet.
00:20:10.960 Yeah.
00:20:11.220 Okay.
00:20:11.500 We're looking into it.
00:20:12.620 But this disease is too new.
00:20:14.660 And we don't know all of facts yet.
00:20:17.320 Yeah.
00:20:17.500 You want me to guess?
00:20:18.300 I'd say maybe 60 or 70%, but we don't know.
00:20:20.840 Yeah.
00:20:21.020 Like, okay.
00:20:22.260 I think if you communicate your lack of certainty, people can make decisions on their own.
00:20:29.440 But that's the last thing they wanted.
00:20:30.840 They can trust you.
00:20:31.620 The last thing they wanted.
00:20:32.020 If you're just honest with us.
00:20:33.840 But he hasn't been from the start.
00:20:35.520 No.
00:20:35.840 There's been multiple cases of this.
00:20:37.720 And again, I can totally excuse people for saying something that they thought was true
00:20:43.240 at the beginning and it turned out to not be true.
00:20:46.160 You know.
00:20:46.960 There are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
00:20:49.360 Yeah.
00:20:49.480 Was that a lie?
00:20:51.180 No, that was not a lie.
00:20:53.700 Right.
00:20:54.040 But the left certainly labeled it as such.
00:20:57.340 Whereas now, oh, these things just evolve.
00:21:01.060 They just didn't know at the time.
00:21:03.400 You can't say something you know to be untrue and act as if it's true for some other associated
00:21:10.980 agenda and then act like we're supposed to trust your every word and hang on it.
00:21:16.040 Like, that's just not going to happen.
00:21:17.680 People learn.
00:21:18.340 I know the government hates that, but this is what happens.
00:21:24.980 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:21:27.200 So when it comes time to buy or sell a house, what's your plan?
00:21:33.280 Do you even have one?
00:21:34.000 I mean, in this market, you really need to have one because the market is going freaking
00:21:37.580 crazy when it comes to housing prices.
00:21:39.960 And that's why this is such a massive deal.
00:21:42.460 If you're talking about one of your largest financial transactions you'll ever have in
00:21:47.360 your entire life, you'll ever go through, and you're in the middle of this market, well,
00:21:51.100 you better take advantage of it.
00:21:52.440 If you are selling a house, you better get that best price.
00:21:54.940 You better know when to hold out for a better offer.
00:21:57.440 Maybe not to fix that thing that they're requesting you fix because it's too good of a market.
00:22:02.960 You don't have to deal with that stuff right now.
00:22:04.300 If you're buying, you don't want to overreach.
00:22:06.240 You need a real estate agent on your side.
00:22:09.180 You need someone who knows the market, who's going to be able to take advantage of a very
00:22:12.880 unique situation that's going on right now with an exploding housing market and so much
00:22:17.900 going off the market so quickly.
00:22:19.680 I mean, you list a house and two days later, it seems like it's gone.
00:22:24.420 Realestateagentsitrust.com is the place to go to find that person.
00:22:26.600 Go to realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:22:28.680 The name kind of says it all.
00:22:31.500 realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:22:32.480 This is Glenn's company.
00:22:33.480 He started it to find the best real estate agents in your area.
00:22:36.920 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:22:40.080 Check out my show, Pack Ray Unleashed, every weekday immediately preceding this one, 7 to
00:22:44.760 9 Eastern, or anytime and anywhere you get your podcast.
00:22:55.080 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today.
00:22:57.380 There's an interesting poll, and there have been several of them, and each of them has found
00:23:01.680 about the same percentage of people who believe that Donald Trump will be reinstated as president
00:23:09.720 this year.
00:23:12.460 Okay.
00:23:14.960 No.
00:23:15.920 That's not going to happen.
00:23:17.720 It can't happen.
00:23:18.900 There is no constitutional mechanism by which this would happen.
00:23:23.240 Even at this point, if they found 9 million ballots, and it was proof positive, and the
00:23:32.160 Biden administration came out and said, yeah, we did it.
00:23:34.780 That was us.
00:23:35.600 We planted all of this.
00:23:37.900 These are where we put the ballots.
00:23:39.300 Here's the footage of us doing it.
00:23:40.720 You really shouldn't have done it.
00:23:41.760 Thinking back at that moment, we were very passionate.
00:23:43.620 You know, we thought we could live with it, but now we can't.
00:23:45.360 We can't.
00:23:45.860 I'm so sorry.
00:23:46.980 We feel guilty about it.
00:23:47.640 Yeah.
00:23:47.960 You still couldn't.
00:23:48.620 There's still no mechanism to get Donald Trump to be, like, there's not a way for that to
00:23:53.020 occur, unless Joe Biden somehow got rid of, like, Kamala Harris steps down, Joe Biden
00:24:00.440 names Donald Trump as vice president, and then he steps down, Biden steps down.
00:24:05.220 That's about the only way you could get him into becoming president of the United States.
00:24:08.380 Which probably isn't going to happen.
00:24:09.400 I'd say it's unlikely.
00:24:10.580 Less than 30%.
00:24:11.780 Yeah.
00:24:12.620 More than unlikely, him being reinstated this year is impossible.
00:24:16.420 Unless, again, like you said, the unlikelihood of Biden firing Kamala Harris and putting...
00:24:25.240 You can't even fire Kamala Harris, really, can he?
00:24:27.380 She'd have to step down.
00:24:28.740 She was elected.
00:24:29.440 He would, right?
00:24:30.160 Right?
00:24:30.840 So you can't just fight...
00:24:31.920 But she'd have to step down.
00:24:34.060 He'd have to select Donald Trump and then Biden...
00:24:36.460 Who's then vice president.
00:24:37.560 And then Biden would have to step down.
00:24:39.500 Okay.
00:24:39.800 So that's probably your best chance.
00:24:41.740 Or you got a military coup.
00:24:44.020 Those are about your two possibilities.
00:24:46.080 That means there is no constitutional...
00:24:48.400 There's no way to make that happen.
00:24:50.840 And, you know, we've seen some people argue that that's a good thing for the country.
00:24:54.620 Would not be a good thing for the country.
00:24:56.340 No.
00:24:56.440 We do not need a military coup in this nation.
00:24:59.080 You know, look, I would like my taxes to be lower.
00:25:03.880 I would like spending to be lower.
00:25:05.460 There's lots of things.
00:25:07.120 Lots of things.
00:25:07.900 Here.
00:25:08.420 But that's not...
00:25:09.780 Would we love it to happen?
00:25:11.020 Yes.
00:25:11.680 We should be clear, though.
00:25:12.640 On these polls...
00:25:13.460 And, you know, I'm a fan of polls, generally.
00:25:16.900 Unlike many people, probably in the audience.
00:25:19.500 They are, at times, inaccurate.
00:25:21.860 But, generally speaking, I think they provide value.
00:25:26.140 In a situation like this, they don't provide value.
00:25:28.760 Because I don't actually think 30% of Republicans believe that Donald Trump is going to be reinstated this year.
00:25:37.800 What happens in these situations is you have people who look at the question and just answer it based on the fact of, do I think it's good for Donald Trump?
00:25:48.340 Right?
00:25:48.760 I like Donald Trump.
00:25:50.420 Is this good for Donald Trump?
00:25:51.900 Yes.
00:25:52.500 What does this pollster want me to say?
00:25:55.220 You know what I mean?
00:25:55.580 They want me to say, well, of course, Donald Trump has no chance of being president again.
00:25:59.960 Well, I say he does.
00:26:01.260 I mean, you go back to the polling during the George W. Bush administration.
00:26:04.640 I think it was 45% of Democrats said they believed George Bush was responsible for 9-11.
00:26:13.660 Wow.
00:26:14.100 It was much higher than 30.
00:26:15.620 I think it was a plurality of voters said he was responsible for it.
00:26:20.720 And meaning, and not just like, okay, well, he should have done more to defend, but like, he was actually involved in the planning of 9-11.
00:26:29.900 45% of Democrats said that.
00:26:33.140 So, a lot of these polls where you're asking these outlier sort of things, almost always designed to try to make Republicans look bad.
00:26:44.480 Right?
00:26:44.960 There's a certain percentage of people that will just side with their guy no matter what.
00:26:50.740 And that's all that's telling you, I think.
00:26:53.380 And Trump kind of toys with people's emotions a little bit.
00:26:56.560 Like in an interview last week with Hannity, he said while his campaign did not win the 2020 election, he added, but let's see what happens on that.
00:27:07.200 What do you mean, let's see what happens on that.
00:27:11.640 Yeah.
00:27:12.240 Nothing's going to happen on that.
00:27:13.560 Yeah.
00:27:14.000 The best way for Donald Trump to be reinstated as president of the United States is to run in 2024 and win.
00:27:19.060 And win.
00:27:19.620 Right?
00:27:19.840 Like that is the overwhelming favorite to get the nomination if he decides to run.
00:27:25.980 And then he would be in a battle with Joe Biden again, and he'd have a chance of winning it.
00:27:31.900 Yes.
00:27:32.200 That is a legitimate chance.
00:27:34.120 The way that Donald Trump could actually be president.
00:27:37.160 But it won't happen this year or next year or the year after that or the year after that.
00:27:43.160 Right.
00:27:43.320 But the year after that is when he'd run again and could win.
00:27:46.080 And then in 2025, you know, on January 20th, he could be sworn in again.
00:27:50.280 That's the only way this can really happen constitutionally.
00:27:52.980 So, you know, is it fun to think, well, gosh, he's going to get in in August like they've been saying.
00:28:00.260 Yeah.
00:28:00.700 It's kind of fun to fantasize about that.
00:28:03.140 It's just not going to happen because it can't.
00:28:05.640 You know, they did a straw poll at the Western Conservative Conference.
00:28:10.600 Just see the results of that.
00:28:12.480 Do you read about this?
00:28:13.240 Do you see this in the paper today?
00:28:14.540 Do you see this?
00:28:16.340 Did you read about that?
00:28:17.760 Ron DeSantis beat out Donald Trump ever so slightly.
00:28:21.080 Apparently, you can vote for more than one person.
00:28:23.580 And so he got DeSantis got 74.1 percent.
00:28:27.300 Trump got 71.4 percent.
00:28:29.800 So they were neck and neck.
00:28:31.020 Basically, this is a question of whether you think this nominee would be acceptable to you.
00:28:35.900 Yeah.
00:28:36.440 And either one of them would.
00:28:38.520 It's not entirely shocking that someone like Ron DeSantis would have a higher number than Trump on that because people who like Trump like DeSantis.
00:28:46.580 And there's some people who don't like Trump and are not going to like Trump.
00:28:49.860 And DeSantis, people call him a professionalized version of Trump, right?
00:28:54.560 Where he's like more of he's got more of that like more traditional, yeah, more traditional politician stuff.
00:28:59.860 But also enough of Trump in him to.
00:29:02.040 Yeah.
00:29:02.180 He likes to fight with the media.
00:29:03.560 He likes the kind of big splashy stuff that the base likes.
00:29:07.360 You know, there's a lot of similarities there as well.
00:29:09.500 And they seem to like each other.
00:29:11.080 Yeah.
00:29:11.960 So it's not shocking, but it is interesting.
00:29:15.340 I mean, again, that's not how you vote.
00:29:17.340 You don't get to vote for like all.
00:29:19.360 I'd like all these people who would be acceptable to me is not how we vote.
00:29:22.780 You have to pick one.
00:29:23.740 And again, that comes down to passion where Donald Trump does.
00:29:26.700 Oh, so well.
00:29:27.540 But the top 10 looked like this.
00:29:29.840 Ron DeSantis, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz.
00:29:33.500 I was kind of surprised Cruz was still third.
00:29:36.240 Mike Pompeo, Tim Scott at number five.
00:29:39.660 Then you had Kristi Noem and Tom Cotton tied.
00:29:43.380 And then Rand Paul, Donald Trump Jr.
00:29:47.520 And Dan Crenshaw and Mike Pence.
00:29:50.920 I think Mike Pence kind of pissed some people off because he was near the top of this list before.
00:29:57.540 But not now.
00:29:59.580 Now he's down at number 10.
00:30:02.560 Very interesting.
00:30:03.220 Going to the Cruz thing for a second.
00:30:05.500 Really, he's done an amazing job.
00:30:08.280 He's done like a Taylor Swift.
00:30:10.060 I used to be country and now I'm pop music star thing here.
00:30:14.440 He's really reborn as a totally different.
00:30:17.500 As a Trump guy.
00:30:18.000 I mean, he was a guy who the Trump fans hated.
00:30:22.660 I mean, believe me, as a guy who really liked Ted Cruz.
00:30:26.640 And when we went out, we followed him on the campaign a couple times.
00:30:30.180 We covered him.
00:30:31.400 We talked to him endlessly.
00:30:33.280 He, I mean, to tell you that he was the most despised man in the universe to anyone who liked Donald Trump would be an understatement.
00:30:42.520 I mean, at one point, they hated him.
00:30:46.240 And he, in a period of a couple years, was able to transition from, like, the most hated guy to one of the most loved.
00:30:53.760 Yeah.
00:30:53.900 I really, it really is incredible.
00:30:56.140 I mean, I don't know what that, I'm not sure exactly what that says.
00:31:00.240 It might just be that the audience, you know, the voters weren't as, they didn't really hate him as much back then.
00:31:07.340 They were just mad at him at that moment.
00:31:09.620 And, you know, he was able to convince them he really is on their side.
00:31:13.260 You know, it could just be that.
00:31:14.840 But it is, I don't, I can't remember a lot of examples of what he's been able to accomplish there with the base.
00:31:21.880 It's been pretty impressive as a political effort.
00:31:25.200 Because you would, you know, during the campaign, you would say he was anti-Trump, right?
00:31:30.240 Yeah, certainly.
00:31:31.220 He was running against them.
00:31:32.020 He's actively trying to stop him from being president.
00:31:34.640 Yes.
00:31:35.080 But now, I think you'd call him a Trump ally.
00:31:37.540 Oh, totally.
00:31:38.280 I mean, Trump endorsed him.
00:31:39.540 Yeah.
00:31:39.720 Right, for his race.
00:31:40.640 Yes.
00:31:41.080 They were very, very friendly throughout the 2020 race.
00:31:44.960 And, like, Cruz is not unique in that way.
00:31:48.360 There's a lot of people who went through that transition between 2016 and 2020.
00:31:53.540 I think what I find amazing about it, though, is, like, Cruz was really the example of that person.
00:32:01.840 Like, he would, you know, to the point of, like, you know, they outwardly hated each other.
00:32:07.040 I mean, Donald Trump was saying his dad killed Kennedy.
00:32:09.740 They were at the point where, I don't know how it could have got worse.
00:32:13.740 And that's, I mean, he was basically calling his wife ugly.
00:32:17.440 Right?
00:32:17.900 Remember this?
00:32:18.420 Oh, yeah.
00:32:18.840 We were at that point in the relationship.
00:32:20.840 That's not a good point in a relationship.
00:32:23.560 And they were able to patch things up.
00:32:25.680 And, look, there's bigger issues, right, than personal insults.
00:32:28.300 The country's on the line here.
00:32:29.740 And I think, you know, a couple of adults can make that determination and move past things.
00:32:34.180 But it's really been an incredible few years here to watch that transition occur.
00:32:39.740 Yeah.
00:32:40.300 It really has.
00:32:41.360 And really, I think now Cruz is one of the guys who you'd look at and say if, again,
00:32:47.920 I don't think anyone has a chance if Donald Trump runs.
00:32:50.960 Oh, I don't either.
00:32:52.040 So, right off the bat, I mean, if Donald Trump decides to run, it's over.
00:32:54.980 It's over if he decides.
00:32:55.000 It's over, including DeSantis, including Cruz, any of them.
00:32:57.300 Right.
00:32:57.660 But if Donald Trump decides not to run, who, let's just say Trump is going to probably
00:33:04.260 endorse someone, right?
00:33:05.620 Who's he going to endorse?
00:33:06.860 Assuming, right, that it's not Ivanka Trump or Donald Trump Jr., which I don't necessarily
00:33:13.560 think is in the cards at this point.
00:33:15.900 If it's not one of his kids, one of his family members that he'd obviously be supporting,
00:33:19.900 who would it be?
00:33:21.700 And at this point, it could be Cruz over DeSantis.
00:33:24.500 I mean, those would be the top two guys you'd think, though.
00:33:28.160 Definitely.
00:33:28.680 Yeah.
00:33:29.020 One or the other.
00:33:30.460 Right now.
00:33:31.080 I definitely wouldn't go with, I don't think he'd endorse Pompeo.
00:33:34.900 Although he's, Pompeo, they have a good relationship, I think.
00:33:38.360 And I just don't think Pompeo, and I like Pompeo, generally speaking.
00:33:43.000 We liked him when he was a congressman, you know.
00:33:45.360 He doesn't seem to me to be the dynamic speaker and communicator that you'd necessarily think
00:33:52.680 is going to win a presidential election.
00:33:54.320 Right.
00:33:54.560 And he's not, he was never like, I don't think a huge, hugely high on the passion list
00:33:59.620 for Trump supporters.
00:34:00.540 He was always good, and I think people liked him, but he was never like, you know, I live
00:34:05.460 and die with the Mike Pompeo, you know, way of doing business.
00:34:09.480 I don't think there was ever that, ever that excitement from the base, where DeSantis has
00:34:15.600 that excitement.
00:34:17.000 You know, everyone I talk to, whenever we talk about what's coming up in 2024, people
00:34:22.860 act like DeSantis is a sure thing.
00:34:24.380 I would, I would have a little bit of caution on that, in that, like, we are far away from
00:34:30.100 the election.
00:34:31.200 Number one, you have the possibility of Donald Trump running, which again, I think means that
00:34:36.020 Ron DeSantis is not probably running and probably almost no one is running, right?
00:34:40.360 Like, he's just going to clear the field if he decides to run.
00:34:43.300 Now, DeSantis could be his VP.
00:34:44.840 People like the Trump-DeSantis possibility.
00:34:46.880 But DeSantis is also, let me ask you this, just as an observer, Pat, you're watching
00:34:53.100 these things, you don't care about the outcome, you're just a political observer here for a
00:34:56.440 moment.
00:34:57.040 Is DeSantis peaking too early?
00:35:00.100 Uh, maybe.
00:35:00.980 I wonder, you know, he's done a lot of really big, splashy things that have excited the base.
00:35:06.720 And look, I like what he's done.
00:35:08.260 I like DeSantis.
00:35:09.520 I'm a fan of the way he's handled COVID.
00:35:11.660 Like, I'm, I'm wondering though, like, it's hard to maintain this pace for multiple years.
00:35:19.060 Yeah.
00:35:19.180 For three more years.
00:35:20.520 Three more years.
00:35:21.040 I mean, the things he's doing, like, these kind of big, splashy things where it's like,
00:35:24.680 you know, we're taking on big tech and we're putting prayer in schools and we're, you know,
00:35:28.020 no COVID vaccines and vaccine passports on cruise ships and all these things that the
00:35:33.600 base obviously is a fan of.
00:35:35.540 Big sort of like big announcements, these big policies.
00:35:38.160 And Abbott has done a bunch of them here as well in Texas.
00:35:41.920 You can't keep that pace up.
00:35:44.080 There's just, you can't do two of those a week until 2024.
00:35:47.680 There's going to, I mean, there's just not enough laws.
00:35:50.860 Yeah.
00:35:51.280 Uh, thankfully.
00:35:52.700 So, I, I wonder if, if he's peaking too early or is, you know, maybe not, maybe you have
00:35:59.840 to just get out ahead of this stuff and, and see where things take him.
00:36:02.520 I think, you know, DeSantis is a smart guy, a young guy, he's energetic, but I mean, do you
00:36:07.520 think there's anything to that?
00:36:08.620 Is that something you'd be, if you were his advisor?
00:36:10.680 He's a little bit concerned about it.
00:36:11.820 Yeah.
00:36:12.340 Yeah.
00:36:12.720 Cause you're right.
00:36:14.120 He's at the top of the heap now, but that's hard to maintain.
00:36:17.420 888-727-BECK.
00:36:21.140 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:36:23.640 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:36:30.300 888-727-BECK.
00:36:32.700 Uh, is it me or has, uh, Dr. St. Anthony Fauci's narcissism gotten even more out of control?
00:36:42.080 Hmm.
00:36:43.260 The guy is, first of all, he says he is science.
00:36:48.320 So, I mean, there's no arguing with him, right?
00:36:51.640 He's, for some reason, gotten super sensitive lately.
00:36:56.440 Yeah.
00:36:56.840 And, and maybe it's because he knows he lied and people are calling him on it and he didn't
00:37:01.160 like it.
00:37:01.620 So, he's trying to put it back on everybody else for how dare you, how dare you question
00:37:07.620 me, I am science kind of thing.
00:37:09.620 Yeah.
00:37:10.100 He's been doing a lot of that lately.
00:37:11.400 A lot.
00:37:12.720 Uh, he was talking to Kara Swisher on Kara's podcast, which, you know, who doesn't listen
00:37:21.440 to that?
00:37:21.900 It's my favorite Kara-based podcast.
00:37:24.460 Is it?
00:37:25.100 Yes.
00:37:25.380 It's my third favorite Kara-based, yeah.
00:37:28.540 Um, but he proclaimed that all of his critics are all bad faith partisans unfairly attacking
00:37:35.480 him.
00:37:36.500 Wow.
00:37:37.620 And then he started talking in third person, which I love.
00:37:40.900 You know, there's, there's not a problem when you start referring to yourself in third
00:37:45.780 person.
00:37:46.840 He said, no, we're not kidding.
00:37:49.100 Fauci does have blood on his hands.
00:37:51.720 Not only was his handling of the pandemic deeply politicized, shown even more so by
00:37:56.400 the release of his emails, uh, but now, uh, Fauci, uh, let's see, where was it that he
00:38:03.920 was referring to himself in third person?
00:38:06.480 Yeah, I'll have to find that.
00:38:08.060 Um, but he is, he, it's basically how dare you question me on anything regarding the way
00:38:16.900 I've handled this particular pandemic.
00:38:18.840 Like, you know, I just, I don't know why anyone thinks this is an effective tactic.
00:38:23.100 You know, even if you just say, look, yeah, I screwed some stuff up.
00:38:26.200 I did some stuff I wish I didn't, you know.
00:38:27.980 But then you've admitted that you've made mistakes.
00:38:29.700 Right.
00:38:30.060 And I guess you can't do that now.
00:38:31.180 Can't do it.
00:38:32.180 And to, to be fair, if it's, you know, if he did admit it, then people would hammer him
00:38:36.180 for the mistake.
00:38:37.380 Like, there's just not, I mean, he's not in a position to win at this point.
00:38:40.400 That, that's probably true.
00:38:41.320 But maybe just get off TV for five minutes.
00:38:43.120 Maybe something like that.
00:38:43.760 Yeah.
00:38:43.940 How about that?
00:38:44.320 Our sponsor, uh, this half hour is, uh, is of course our friends at rough greens, rough
00:38:53.920 greens has been, I want to say feeding our dogs, but that's not exactly right.
00:38:58.380 It's not a dog food.
00:38:59.820 It is something you sprinkle on top of the dog food.
00:39:02.260 So it makes, it's the difference between my dogs being excited to eat or, you know, walking
00:39:07.880 up to the bowl and sniffing and then walking away and looking at you and like, why isn't
00:39:11.040 the rough greens on here right now?
00:39:12.760 That's what I want.
00:39:14.120 Um, it's very good for them.
00:39:15.340 It's chock full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, omega oils, all the stuff that your dog, you
00:39:20.620 know, needs.
00:39:21.720 Um, but really when you put it on top of the food, you'll realize how much they love it
00:39:25.880 because they go for it.
00:39:26.880 And I guess it's because it's, you know, it's something that their bodies actually really
00:39:31.260 crave and you're giving them something that's really healthy.
00:39:35.020 Unlike human beings, when you need food and it's actually healthy, it's the stuff you
00:39:39.720 avoid, apparently dogs don't do that.
00:39:41.960 But the good thing is you can get a free bag of rough greens for your dog to try out.
00:39:45.560 I have to do is pay for shipping.

00:40:09.720 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:40:37.580 This is the Glenn Beck program.
00:40:46.040 Maybe the most un-American, unconstitutional situation, uh, thus far.
00:40:54.760 Um, you, I mean, I think we've touched on this, uh, but it's been several months now and,
00:41:03.700 uh, $85 million still resides with the FBI rather than American citizens.
00:41:11.980 Uh, we'll tell you about a civil asset forfeiture story that just keeps getting worse all the
00:41:18.820 time.
00:41:19.340 Coming up in 60 seconds.
00:41:20.920 The Glenn Beck program.
00:41:26.840 So yesterday I had the most stereotypical father's day humanly possible.
00:41:34.160 I, I actually did fall asleep watching golf on television.
00:41:38.960 So the most standard thing you could possibly do.
00:41:42.940 And then in addition to that, we grilled out, that's what you do on father's day, a little
00:41:49.120 grilling out, did a little falling asleep, watching golf.
00:41:52.420 If you want to grill out though, and do it right, you need to have a rec tech.
00:41:56.560 Uh, you can control the whole thing from inside.
00:41:58.800 So you can be like, well, I don't know if I would, I would recommend falling asleep while
00:42:02.880 using your rec tech.
00:42:04.300 Uh, but you can control it from inside the air in the house, in the air conditioning on
00:42:09.060 your phone, get the exact temperature that you want for your, for your grill.
00:42:13.880 And then you're out there enjoying the food and you get to kind of celebrate the indoor
00:42:20.800 air conditioning and golf time inside while all that stuff is happening.
00:42:25.220 You can't beat that.
00:42:26.600 Uh, it's really amazing.
00:42:28.400 Follow rec tech on all their social media and sign up for their newsletter.
00:42:31.760 It's R E C T E Q rec tech, rec tech with a Q at the end, R E C T E Q.com, R E C T E
00:42:39.620 Q.com.
00:42:40.820 All right.
00:42:59.680 Uh, hundreds of people who store valuables in a safe deposit box may never see their cash
00:43:06.480 again or their precious metals or their heirlooms, unless a, uh, federal judge finally intervenes
00:43:15.480 this week.
00:43:16.340 Now, a couple of months ago, we told you about this, uh, seizure from the FBI at the U S private
00:43:22.760 vaults, the US PV.
00:43:24.780 So some families and some private citizens have gotten together to sue the government for the
00:43:30.400 content contents of about 800 deposit boxes that were taken.
00:43:36.260 Everything in them was just taken by the FBI FBI in March in a raid of the storage provider.
00:43:43.160 Um, and the provider was indicted for conspiracy to sell drugs and launder money.
00:43:49.240 Now, none of these other Americans who had their valuables in the safety deposit boxes has been
00:43:54.500 charged with anything.
00:43:56.180 And some of them have hundreds of thousands, if not into the millions in these safety deposit
00:44:01.380 boxes.
00:44:02.000 Now, if you don't trust a bank, where are you going to put your money?
00:44:05.320 Probably one of the likely places would be a safety deposit box thinking, okay, it's going
00:44:09.760 to be safe here.
00:44:10.880 Now, not from, not from the FBI, not from the federal government.
00:44:14.540 I mean, who would have thought that the FBI would pull off the largest bank heist in American
00:44:20.940 history?
00:44:21.740 That's just unconscionable.
00:44:24.560 How can this stand?
00:44:26.160 And it does time after time, but usually this involves, you know, people traveling like you're
00:44:31.200 on the freeway, you get pulled over by state police.
00:44:34.100 Uh, they, for some reason, decide to search your vehicle and do so, uh, and find 10,000
00:44:43.060 or 20,000 or 30,000 in cash.
00:44:45.260 And they just take it or you're at the airport and the TSA confiscates it.
00:44:50.040 Both of those situations have happened many, many times.
00:44:53.580 This is the first one I I've known of where, you know, you just got your valuables put in
00:44:59.300 a safe place and the FBI comes and takes it anyway.
00:45:01.960 Even if you're not accused of a crime, convicted like that should be the standard to me, not
00:45:09.760 even charged.
00:45:10.680 You could say all you want.
00:45:11.840 I'm going to put my stuff in a safe place.
00:45:14.580 However, if, uh, you are convicted of a crime and, you know, deemed that these were ill gotten
00:45:23.020 gains, right?
00:45:24.400 Like your money's never in a safe place, right?
00:45:26.380 Like that's the legal system.
00:45:27.920 If you get convicted of a crime, they may take your stuff, especially if you got them
00:45:31.760 through the, that, that, you know, some illegal way.
00:45:35.360 But to do it when you're not even convicted is completely, it's criminal to me when you're
00:45:42.180 not accused.
00:45:43.480 Yeah.
00:45:44.260 Like that's just an allegation of wrongdoing here.
00:45:47.120 It's just theft.
00:45:47.820 It's straight up theft and it's grand larceny.
00:45:54.280 I mean, this is a lot of money they're taking from people.
00:45:57.700 Um, the asset list in the seizure notice discloses more than a dozen boxes containing more than
00:46:07.660 a million dollars each in cash and many more in six figures.
00:46:11.460 Others list jewelry, collectible coins, gold and silver, precious items.
00:46:16.000 And so people have millions of dollars worth of things in these safety.
00:46:21.480 That's what a safety deposit box is for, right?
00:46:24.980 You put valuables in it, stuff that you want to be kept safe.
00:46:30.340 And you never think, well, if the FBI raids the owner of this place, I'm going to lose all
00:46:35.240 my money.
00:46:36.580 You would never think that.
00:46:38.540 Why?
00:46:39.180 Because this is the United States of America, right?
00:46:42.760 I don't even know that there's precedent for this in the Soviet Union.
00:46:46.800 I, I mean, maybe, maybe they did this kind of stuff.
00:46:50.080 I don't know that people had that kind of wealth to be taken from them, uh, in the Soviet
00:46:54.940 Union, but, uh, I, there's no redress here.
00:46:59.160 They, they sue and they just tell you, nope, sorry, uh, you can't have it.
00:47:04.780 So you just hope a federal judge finally intervenes and says, give them back their money now,
00:47:10.900 uh, or face the consequences.
00:47:15.240 But I don't know what your recourse is.
00:47:17.520 If the judge doesn't step in, you're just out of everything you had saved up in these
00:47:23.000 things.
00:47:23.320 It's, it's really something else.
00:47:25.520 It's incredible.
00:47:26.120 It's incredible that this stuff happens routinely in the United States of America.
00:47:29.660 And, and, and it's also one of those things, uh, somewhat like critical race theory, right?
00:47:34.640 That has been going on over the past couple of months.
00:47:37.160 When people realize what this is, they generally speaking are on the right side of the issue.
00:47:43.880 You know, like people, people look, oh, I'm being trained in my office and they're saying
00:47:48.180 I should disavow my whiteness.
00:47:50.820 You know, even not only white people, but African Americans and Hispanics and everybody else
00:47:57.760 looks at this and say, okay, that's just racism repackaged, right?
00:48:02.340 Like, uh, it does, that's a critical race theory, which is a catch all at this point.
00:48:07.120 And, and, and probably, you know, catches too much at times.
00:48:11.260 But the bottom line is people can inherently recognize that it's wrong without even thinking
00:48:16.720 about it.
00:48:17.180 And, you know, it's the same thing with like, Hey, I'm, I went to watch my daughter's track
00:48:20.400 meet this weekend and she lost by, uh, 15 lengths to a boy, right?
00:48:26.320 Like, you know, people just inherently can say, all right, this is wrong.
00:48:31.760 And, and, and when people are awakened, uh, to this type of thing, to use the woke terminology,
00:48:37.860 uh, they are generally speaking, uh, on the right side of it.
00:48:42.600 Yeah.
00:48:42.720 They're generally left or right, right?
00:48:44.360 They're outraged either way.
00:48:45.220 But I think the same thing exists with, with this, when it comes to, um, this theft, this,
00:48:52.440 this is really theft.
00:48:53.480 And it's, it's happened to tons of people, people who haven't even been accused of crimes,
00:49:00.340 having their livelihoods, their money taken away from them for absolutely no reason at
00:49:06.780 all.
00:49:07.160 I don't know how you could be okay with it really.
00:49:09.140 And maybe you're just, you think, ah, they're rich people, they, whatever.
00:49:12.340 I don't care what happens to them, but some of these clients are not wealthy.
00:49:16.960 Uh, two new clients have just been added to the amended complaint.
00:49:21.600 They already, you know, they had a lot of the people already on the complaint.
00:49:24.760 Now they've got other clients like this couple who was storing $2,000, $2,000 in cash and 20,000
00:49:33.200 in silver.
00:49:33.940 So a total of $22,000.
00:49:36.100 It's their nest egg for retirement.
00:49:38.780 $22,000.
00:49:41.420 Uh, that's pretty modest.
00:49:43.580 And now the FBI has confiscated that and they don't have that retirement nest fund, nest egg.
00:49:49.580 Uh, they've got a telecommunications executive that just jumped on board.
00:49:53.240 A hundred thousand.
00:49:54.040 He had a hundred thousand dollars worth of gold and 63,000 in cash intended as a rainy day fund.
00:49:59.940 And just taken from him, just taken.
00:50:03.160 And again, remember no charges against any of these people have been filed.
00:50:08.580 Now he's not the guy, cause you say telecommunications executive.
00:50:11.800 He's not the guy that came up with robo calls, did he?
00:50:13.920 Cause if that's him, then he deserves it.
00:50:16.560 It's all, it all should be taken as far as I know.
00:50:19.180 Now that's not constitutional still, but I still would root it.
00:50:22.060 I would root for it in a big way.
00:50:23.960 Uh, no, I mean, how many, this is happening so much.
00:50:26.880 We've talked about this, this, there was a guy in Chicago who was, he worked on cars.
00:50:32.740 His, his livelihood was, he worked on cars.
00:50:35.240 He would go help out people.
00:50:37.320 Um, and sometimes he'd come off away from where he worked.
00:50:41.900 Um, he had this customer who came in, um, who had, uh, who had the car, um, uh, brought
00:50:50.100 it in, dropped the car off, needed to go back to work.
00:50:52.260 So as a, as a business owner trying to help his customers, he drove the guy back to work
00:50:58.240 in the process of driving them back to work, they got pulled over and the passenger in
00:51:04.200 the car had drugs in his pocket.
00:51:06.540 Now, no one accused the driver who was just a mechanic of being in the responsible for
00:51:13.800 the drugs that were never accused of a crime at all, but they, it took his car in the back
00:51:20.480 of his car was all of his, uh, equipment to help people fix their cars.
00:51:24.960 So he lost his tools.
00:51:26.480 He lost his car for years and they kept fining him to get his own car, uh, out of, uh, being
00:51:35.420 impounded based on nothing.
00:51:38.460 He had done nothing wrong.
00:51:39.740 They didn't even, it wasn't like a bad accusation.
00:51:43.060 It's hard to communicate how ridiculous this is because it wasn't like they said, oh, he
00:51:46.840 was really responsible for the drugs.
00:51:48.380 We know it with no evidence.
00:51:49.700 That would be bad enough.
00:51:50.900 They weren't even saying he was responsible.
00:51:53.120 They weren't saying he was responsible.
00:51:54.720 They weren't saying, oh, you guys are really hiding it.
00:51:56.380 This is a drug operation.
00:51:57.940 None of that.
00:51:58.720 They knew he was innocent.
00:52:00.740 They knew it.
00:52:02.100 And they still find this guy tens of thousands of dollars.
00:52:06.900 He's a working man.
00:52:08.020 He doesn't have tens of thousands of dollars to get his car out from impound.
00:52:11.020 And all of his tools, it ruined his business.
00:52:15.580 It ruined his life.
00:52:17.340 And why?
00:52:18.420 Unreal.
00:52:19.440 Why?
00:52:20.080 It's unbelievable because they, law enforcement agencies want the ability to confiscate this
00:52:26.780 so that they can fight the war on drugs.
00:52:29.020 That's what they, that's their excuse.
00:52:30.440 And they want, they like the money that comes along with this.
00:52:32.920 They love the money that comes along with it.
00:52:34.900 You know, and look, I'm as pro police as they come, but you gotta be able to convict a
00:52:40.300 person of something if you're going to take their stuff.
00:52:43.820 Not just charge, but convict them before you confiscate their property.
00:52:48.460 Yeah.
00:52:48.880 And this is, they've now gone to the place where they're evading these bans.
00:52:53.820 So people learn about this civil asset forfeiture and they're like, this is wrong.
00:52:59.220 This is America.
00:52:59.880 This should not happen.
00:53:00.900 Right.
00:53:01.040 So many states have now gone to the point where they've passed laws saying you can't do this
00:53:05.840 without a conviction or at least an accusation of wrongdoing.
00:53:09.120 seems to make a lot of sense, but there's a hole in these laws where if they go to, like
00:53:15.680 basically there's a hole that says, if you work with the federal government, so let's
00:53:20.060 say the federal government is in the middle, an agency is going through, they're in the
00:53:23.340 middle of an investigation and they need assistance from the state.
00:53:28.760 If it goes through the federal government and they do the civil asset forfeiture thing,
00:53:33.900 the state gets to keep, you know, I think it's 80 percent, 80 percent of the money.
00:53:38.880 Yeah.
00:53:39.220 Right.
00:53:39.720 Yep.
00:53:39.920 So what these states are doing that have bans on civil asset forfeiture is they're taking
00:53:45.720 the investigation all the way up to the point where they're going to seize the stuff.
00:53:49.640 And then they're like, oh, we need help from the feds.
00:53:53.420 So the feds come in, they take over the investigation, actually seize it and seize the property.
00:53:59.840 And then the state gets 80 percent of the money anyway.
00:54:02.940 This is how they're getting around these bans.
00:54:05.160 This is something that is blatantly wrong.
00:54:09.540 And it's not just in liberal states.
00:54:11.980 No.
00:54:12.200 This is happening in Texas, in Utah.
00:54:14.620 Texas is actually really bad with the civil asset forfeiture.
00:54:18.020 Yeah.
00:54:18.340 And what was the figure we had, I think last week, it was $20 billion, I believe, that's
00:54:25.820 been confiscated in the last 10 years.
00:54:27.880 20 billion.
00:54:28.400 So it's like $2 billion a year.
00:54:30.940 $2 billion?
00:54:32.940 And most of these people, if not all of them, are not even charged with a crime?
00:54:37.620 Yeah.
00:54:38.080 It's unbelievable.
00:54:38.700 And look, they do get drug dealers.
00:54:40.760 They do.
00:54:41.660 And they can point, you know, to police can come to you and say, look, this is a really
00:54:46.040 valuable thing because if we wait until they're convicted, you know, then they're going to
00:54:52.000 find a way to hide all this money and we're not going to get any of it, which is understandable.
00:54:55.800 And there's legitimate argument to be made there.
00:54:58.800 However, this is the type of place that is innocent until proven guilty.
00:55:03.960 That's the basis of our system.
00:55:06.400 So you err on the side of letting guilty people get away with certain things if it's going
00:55:12.000 to protect innocent people.
00:55:13.100 Exactly.
00:55:13.940 That's how far we go that far normally.
00:55:16.880 And we've given up on that with civil asset forfeiture.
00:55:20.060 That's not that's not it's not good.
00:55:22.840 And I will say the only reason I think people care about this so is so little is because
00:55:27.980 the name is so boring.
00:55:30.700 Civil asset forfeiture is the least sexy thing in the world.
00:55:34.420 It should be called federal theft of private citizens property.
00:55:39.660 You need something catchy.
00:55:40.840 Maybe that would get somebody's attention.
00:55:42.980 You need something catchy.

00:57:02.540 The Biden administration wants you to support or wants you to report radicalized friends
00:57:21.940 and family members, which is, yeah, that's great.
00:57:26.560 It reminds me of that see something, say something time period of the right after the Patriot Act
00:57:34.680 was enacted.
00:57:36.700 And you were supposed to be watching your neighbors for suspicious activity and then reporting them.
00:57:42.340 Well, Biden's administration has announced their plans to create ways for Americans to report
00:57:47.000 radicalized friends and family to the government in an effort to fight domestic terrorism.
00:57:53.060 Because we all know that there's a whole bunch of white supremacists lurking in neighborhoods
00:57:59.800 all over America.
00:58:00.800 How many of you have in your neighborhood?
00:58:03.660 Probably.
00:58:04.040 I believe 11.
00:58:04.980 11.
00:58:05.500 Yeah.
00:58:05.920 Yeah.
00:58:06.780 That's probably a small number.
00:58:08.380 I'll bet that's on the conservative side.
00:58:10.200 Yeah, that's true.
00:58:11.340 In a conversation with reporters, one senior administration official explained the importance
00:58:15.500 of stopping politically fueled violence before it starts.
00:58:19.480 So we're going to do future crimes here.
00:58:22.320 We will work to improve public awareness of federal resources to address concerning or threatening
00:58:27.160 behavior before the violence occurs.
00:58:29.560 The official cited the Department of Homeland Security's, if you see something, say something
00:58:34.800 campaign, which was so great and so successful, narc on your neighbors.
00:58:41.380 It really works well.
00:58:43.060 Ask Germans.
00:58:44.500 They love it.
00:58:46.220 They love it.
00:58:46.920 This involves creating contexts in which those who are family members or friends or co-workers
00:58:54.020 know that there are pathways and avenues to raise concerns and seek help for those they
00:58:59.380 have perceived to be radicalizing and potentially radicalizing towards violence.
00:59:05.180 Biden began his presidency with a stark warning in his inauguration speech about the rise in
00:59:11.100 political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will
00:59:18.360 defeat.
00:59:19.460 I can't tell you the number of white supremacists that I run into on a daily basis.
00:59:25.120 It's just...
00:59:25.420 Well, all of them.
00:59:27.040 All of the white people.
00:59:28.380 All of the white people that I run into.
00:59:29.680 Have you seen any white people today?
00:59:30.800 White supremacists.
00:59:31.880 Yes.
00:59:32.300 Thank you.
00:59:32.580 That's how this works.
00:59:33.640 Thank you.
00:59:34.300 And are they all radicals?
00:59:35.780 Yeah.
00:59:36.140 Yeah.
00:59:36.440 Most of them are on the right.
00:59:38.520 So you know they're radicals.
00:59:39.680 Yeah.
00:59:40.540 That's how...
00:59:41.460 It's a great way to do this because there was this idea that you had to prove that someone
00:59:46.020 was a racist, was a white supremacist, with evidence.
00:59:50.400 And now we've got...
00:59:51.160 We've passed that.
00:59:52.160 We no longer need to do that.
00:59:53.400 We just need to see that they're white and we know.
00:59:55.820 And you know.
00:59:56.580 You know that they're racists because of their skin color.
01:00:01.440 We can generalize.
01:00:02.600 And this is a theory...
01:00:03.640 People might not understand this.
01:00:04.780 This is a highly advanced theory.
01:00:06.020 But what we could do is we could generalize based on skin color.
01:00:11.200 And that's good.
01:00:12.240 And whenever you can take a skin color and take certain characteristics you assign to
01:00:18.180 that skin color generally...
01:00:19.480 Like you would stereotype an entire...
01:00:20.980 Yeah, you'd stereotype.
01:00:21.400 Yes, that's perfect.
01:00:22.180 ...group of people based on their race.
01:00:23.520 And you'd assume things about them, usually negative.
01:00:26.520 Almost always negative.
01:00:27.240 Yeah.
01:00:27.520 You assume negative things about them because their skin color...
01:00:30.540 Okay.
01:00:30.900 ...is a certain hue.
01:00:32.440 Right.
01:00:33.060 And then you know...
01:00:33.480 In this case, like a beige or a...
01:00:35.380 A beige, peach-ish...
01:00:36.340 Casper-like...
01:00:37.540 Sure.
01:00:38.240 ...tone to it.
01:00:39.160 And then you know these bad things apply to them.
01:00:41.680 Not because they've actually done them, but because their skin color looks a certain
01:00:47.300 way.
01:00:48.060 And that is a great advancement in our society.
01:00:52.580 What a wonderful achievement that we've been able to come to this point where we can
01:00:57.600 tell so much about a person based just on the color of their skin.
01:01:01.060 And if you can lock up all those white people, you know, with the beige-ish, Casper-like hue
01:01:06.380 to their skin.
01:01:07.440 Yeah.
01:01:07.620 If you can lock them up before they do the radical thing, then you just...
01:01:12.260 I mean, you save civilization a lot of trouble.
01:01:15.020 It's the same thing with Asians, by the way.
01:01:17.260 This is a...
01:01:18.180 Because Asians, they seem to achieve too much.
01:01:20.760 That's true.
01:01:21.200 And the only way they can do that is Asian supremacy.
01:01:23.980 And look, some of them look maybe white.
01:01:26.320 I will tell you this, what I learned a while ago was that Asian intelligence comes through
01:01:32.440 white supremacy.
01:01:33.740 It does.
01:01:34.400 Yeah.
01:01:34.640 I've heard that, and it does seem like it does.
01:01:37.780 It does.
01:01:38.000 So, it's all part of the same problem.
01:01:41.380 We're doing a great job here with this country.
01:01:43.780 Oh my God.
01:01:44.120 We're doing a great job.
01:01:45.280 Aren't we, though?
01:01:45.820 We solved so many issues just by making lots of decisions based on skin color.
01:01:50.180 Who thought it could have been that easy?
01:01:52.620 But there it is.
01:01:53.700 We're back there again.
01:01:54.780 Good job, America.
01:01:58.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:02:05.520 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:02:08.120 888-727-BECK.
01:02:12.540 A couple of Republicans, in fact, several Republicans, are calling for President Joe Biden to undergo
01:02:19.800 a cognitive assessment?
01:02:21.900 What?
01:02:23.340 Why the hate?
01:02:24.860 Why?
01:02:25.360 Where is that coming from?
01:02:26.640 He does not need a cognitive assessment.
01:02:30.560 No, he does not.
01:02:31.680 We know exactly what the abilities are, and they're low.
01:02:35.520 We do not need to be assessed.
01:02:37.620 We've seen him operate in public.
01:02:40.500 In a letter dated June 17th, Jackson and his colleagues noted Biden agreed to such an assessment
01:02:46.560 and detailed several examples of where Biden's mental decline and forgetfulness have become
01:02:52.740 more apparent over the past 18 months.
01:02:54.560 Oh, I'll not hear about it.
01:02:56.180 I will not hear of it.
01:02:58.420 In March...
01:02:59.440 I love this.
01:03:00.640 He forgot the names of the Pentagon, the Department of Defense, and the Defense Secretary.
01:03:09.580 Do you remember that moment?
01:03:10.960 I think I might have that moment here somewhere.
01:03:13.780 That's not that many people, though.
01:03:15.900 Do you really need to know the names of all the people you work with?
01:03:20.800 No.
01:03:21.180 Not all of them.
01:03:22.700 Right.
01:03:23.120 Or some of them.
01:03:24.100 Do you need to know any of the names of the people you work with?
01:03:27.120 I think the answer to that is no.
01:03:28.820 Here's one of those circumstances.
01:03:30.060 And I want to thank the former general.
01:03:34.080 I keep calling him general, but my guy who runs that outfit over there.
01:03:40.560 That's good.
01:03:41.320 That's good, right?
01:03:42.360 That's good.
01:03:42.820 That's sharp.
01:03:43.800 That tells you, okay, a guy knows what he's talking about.
01:03:46.020 He knows that there's a person who runs that outfit over there.
01:03:49.480 He can't remember the name of the outfit, which is the Pentagon.
01:03:53.120 He can't remember the Department of Defense, and he can't remember this defense secretary's name.
01:03:58.320 And he knows certain things about this person, like he was a general at one point, for example.
01:04:03.900 Yes, he does.
01:04:04.580 And he's saying the things he knows about the person in hopes it will cue his brain to come up with his name or where he works.
01:04:12.500 And it's not working.
01:04:13.320 Or what he does.
01:04:13.800 And it is not working.
01:04:14.720 It does not work.
01:04:15.960 So there was that.
01:04:17.080 There was misidentifying the time of day and Democrat members of Congress.
01:04:22.120 In February, that happened.
01:04:23.280 In May, confused the dates of riding an Amtrak train and the death of his mother.
01:04:30.120 He botched the first line of the Declaration of Independence in March of 2020.
01:04:34.760 He's done that several times, actually.
01:04:36.360 He's messed up the Declaration of Independence.
01:04:39.160 I don't know how many times.
01:04:40.420 One of them was, you know the thing.
01:04:43.780 You know the thing, yeah.
01:04:45.780 Truth, justice, and fair.
01:04:47.720 You know the thing.
01:04:49.840 And then another time, it was et cetera.
01:04:53.180 So he just got to the place where, oh, man, or et cetera.
01:05:00.040 And that was it.
01:05:01.220 Yeah.
01:05:01.400 And I've seen reporters now come out publicly and say, we've never seen an administration like this where the aides will shut down the president of the United States attempting to answer questions over and over and over and over again.
01:05:15.320 They'll go to him, they'll ask him a question, and they'll just say, stop.
01:05:19.920 His own aides will say, stop.
01:05:22.820 Yes.
01:05:23.300 Like he's a kid running into the street.
01:05:25.360 Well, you were on vacation last week.
01:05:26.760 Did you see the time in Europe where he's under this big tent?
01:05:31.640 There's a bunch of reporters shouting at him under the tent, and he's kind of shuffled along a little bit, and he starts to stop and address some of the things they're saying.
01:05:44.500 Am I wearing pants?
01:05:46.040 Right.
01:05:46.460 Where's my pudding?
01:05:47.600 And Jill comes running up, grabs him by the arm, and pulls him away from everybody.
01:05:54.380 This is one of those things where we're just going to find out in five years or 10 years that he was completely lost.
01:06:02.000 Right.
01:06:02.300 And that he was medicated at times, and that got him through some of these difficult situations.
01:06:07.300 But for the most part, he was just incapable of carrying out his responsibilities.
01:06:13.200 I definitely think there's going to come a time where we find this out.
01:06:16.880 Has to.
01:06:17.440 And again, the alternative is worse.
01:06:20.220 Kamala Harris, who is not having these problems, thankfully, as an individual, I don't want her running the show.
01:06:29.080 No.
01:06:29.260 So Joe Biden, even though I know he's a little on the slow side these days, is a much better option for the United States of America than letting Kamala run the show.
01:06:39.460 That being said, it's terrifying that our president is in this state.
01:06:44.460 And look, he's not, and when I say completely gone, he's not completely gone in every moment.
01:06:49.420 As you point out, sometimes maybe he's medicated, maybe he's fine some of the time, but clearly he has, he has wires that do not touch each other anymore in the brain.
01:07:01.000 They're supposed to communicate with each other, and they're like three inches away from each other now, and the electricity does not bridge that gap.
01:07:09.500 It just doesn't happen.
01:07:10.520 So, sure, is it embarrassing?
01:07:14.220 Is it sometimes even humorous when he comes out and he can't understand what he's saying?
01:07:19.840 You might say that.
01:07:21.340 But when he's in a meeting with Vladimir Putin, God only knows what comes out of that.
01:07:27.200 What does he blurt out that he's not supposed to?
01:07:30.300 What can't he remember when he needs to remember?
01:07:33.760 Well, you had that weird situation, and he admitted to it, where, I told him, I told Putin that there's 16 things we don't want you to attack.
01:07:45.320 And then everything else is fair game?
01:07:47.520 Everything else?
01:07:48.660 What?
01:07:49.160 Plus, we gave you a list of the places we're vulnerable.
01:07:53.540 Right.
01:07:53.840 Please don't attack us there.
01:07:55.240 You shouldn't attack us there, okay?
01:07:58.060 We'd appreciate it if you wouldn't do that.
01:08:01.280 Don't, don't, please.
01:08:02.820 We have one password for all of our computers, but don't go after the nuclear.
01:08:08.780 Don't use that computer.
01:08:10.380 Don't do that one.
01:08:11.220 Now, it is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on all of them, but don't use, you can use that on our financial system.
01:08:18.600 You can use it on our electricity grid, but please, not our nuclear codes.
01:08:24.180 Okay, well, that should work out well.
01:08:27.280 Now, he said it was emergency, which I don't know what that means, really.
01:08:30.920 I mean, we can't, okay, so we're not supposed to hack your emergency.
01:08:35.620 Emergency, don't do that.
01:08:36.580 We're not supposed to hack transportation.
01:08:38.120 They're not supposed to hack, I don't remember them all, but there were 16, and he laid it
01:08:43.140 all out for them.
01:08:44.220 So Putin knows exactly where we're vulnerable right now and exactly where to attack.
01:08:48.300 Plus, we didn't say anything about any of the other infrastructure, so you can attack that
01:08:53.100 at will.
01:08:53.680 Yeah, go ahead.
01:08:54.200 Go after all of our private companies and their information.
01:08:57.760 What does that matter?
01:08:58.620 Yeah.
01:08:58.980 Some dumb private company.
01:09:00.260 Don't worry about that.
01:09:00.280 Some stupid bunch of our citizens, millions of our citizens lose their identities.
01:09:05.340 Ah, who cares?
01:09:06.920 Don't come after our pipeline.
01:09:08.820 It seems to be what they were basically saying.
01:09:10.760 Like, okay, leave our infrastructure.
01:09:12.460 You can just take what you need to take from everyone else, you know?
01:09:16.340 I mean, that's not what a president is supposed to do.
01:09:21.460 No.
01:09:22.600 Look, I understand that some of the stuff can just get partisan and people just say bad things
01:09:29.440 about the guy they don't like.
01:09:30.460 Look, I think Joe Biden is, if he were completely coherent, would still be a terrible president.
01:09:35.320 I'm not hiding the fact that I think he sucks, but go beyond this for a second.
01:09:39.880 Like, we did, you know, one of the first things we did, merchandise-wise, was on stewdoesmerch.com,
01:09:48.620 by the way.
01:09:48.960 You can go pick up your merch there.
01:09:50.380 We did a shirt based off of, remember the Seinfeld episode where, you know, George's dad
01:09:56.700 is saying, he's saying, Serenity Now, over and over again in the back of his car.
01:10:03.240 It's a very famous episode.
01:10:04.320 He's, Serenity Now!
01:10:05.400 Every time he gets in trouble, he has a bad thought.
01:10:07.400 He just says, Serenity Now!
01:10:08.720 Oh, that's what we did with Joe Biden.
01:10:11.120 Serenity Now!
01:10:12.720 He's just in the back of a car.
01:10:14.880 Serenity Now!
01:10:16.180 Please bring the serenity to me so I can govern.
01:10:20.120 That is not the place you want your country to be.
01:10:23.980 You don't want the leader to have to beg and scream in hopes that serenity comes to visit
01:10:29.760 him.
01:10:30.800 That is not, it's not a promising thing for our future.
01:10:34.420 And I do worry about it quite a bit.
01:10:36.880 I mean, I, I, the, the, the negative consequences coming out of that are an unknown, no, a known
01:10:46.060 unknown, I believe, as Donald Rumsfeld used to say.
01:10:48.520 We know it's possible.
01:10:49.560 We just don't know how it's going to manifest itself.
01:10:51.300 We know it's going to happen.
01:10:53.180 We know the risk is there.
01:10:54.680 We don't know what thing he's going to blurt out, what mistake he's going to make, what
01:10:59.040 moment he needs his engine to run, and it doesn't.
01:11:04.040 Yeah.
01:11:04.180 And that's terrifying.
01:11:05.720 I mean, can you imagine?
01:11:08.140 You got this brutal killer across from you, sitting three feet from you, and he's, you
01:11:18.540 know, still got all his faculties.
01:11:20.480 And then you've got Joe Biden sitting there, who is completely diminished in his abilities.
01:11:27.740 I mean, I, I wouldn't have had that great of confidence in him 30 years ago, because he's
01:11:32.880 not the kind of guy I think that you want dealing with, uh, heads of state who are, who
01:11:39.280 are enemies.
01:11:40.380 Uh, I don't think he's strong enough.
01:11:42.140 I don't think he has the right ideology, but certainly now that his faculties are so diminished,
01:11:47.720 it is frightening what's going on between the two of them.
01:11:51.940 And you're, you're going to leave him in there with that guy by yourselves, by themselves.
01:11:57.760 I, I don't have any confidence that he can pull that off.
01:12:01.000 None.
01:12:02.160 And you know, this is why we begged and pleaded during the election, during the campaign,
01:12:07.640 that this guy is not capable of handling this job.
01:12:11.320 And I think that's gotten even, even more clear to, uh, everyone, but here we are.
01:12:18.360 And he's in the middle of negotiating details and treaties and, and trying to tell world leaders
01:12:25.700 that we're not going to put up with your nonsense when he's just incapable of doing it.
01:12:30.500 When you can't even remember the name of your defense secretary.
01:12:34.020 And I want to thank the, the, uh, the former general, I keep calling him general, but my,
01:12:39.620 my, uh, the guy who runs that outfit over there, uh, I want to make sure we thank the secretary
01:12:47.100 for all he's done to try to implement what we just talked about, but I can't remember
01:12:52.420 his name, but I want to thank whoever he is.
01:12:58.440 It's not exactly heartfelt.
01:12:59.820 And I think he used to be a general, I keep calling him a general, but he's not one.
01:13:06.420 Sir, his name is captain crunch.
01:13:08.120 You're talking to a cereal box.
01:13:13.600 Is he the one who keeps making the mistake with all the berries?
01:13:17.340 Yes.
01:13:17.920 Oops.
01:13:18.260 All berries.
01:13:19.040 All berries.
01:13:19.680 I don't believe that you keep messing up like that.
01:13:23.200 I, at some point it happened on purpose.
01:13:25.280 Right.
01:13:25.600 I, I think that's what I, I think that after 30 years of oops, all berries, I think the
01:13:35.580 captain is doing it on purpose.
01:13:37.820 That's right.
01:13:38.800 Honey.
01:13:39.040 He's like a berry terrorist or something over there in Crunchville.
01:13:46.640 All right.
01:13:47.500 Triple eight.
01:13:48.620 Seven, two, seven.
01:13:49.560 B E C K.
01:13:55.600 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
01:13:59.420 Triple eight, seven, two, seven B E C K NFL football player, Cole Beasley, who's a
01:14:05.280 Wes Welker, like a slot receiver sort of guy, meaning he's white, meaning he's, yes, he's
01:14:12.700 white.
01:14:13.040 He's slow.
01:14:13.960 He's white.
01:14:14.780 And he's on a football field and no one can explain it, but he's really, he's really
01:14:18.340 pretty darn good.
01:14:19.260 He is.
01:14:19.480 He went to SMU, I believe here in Texas.
01:14:21.440 And he's a, yeah, he's a good player.
01:14:23.560 He played, he was with the Cowboys for a while.
01:14:25.380 He signed a big contract with the bills.
01:14:27.100 So he's with the bills now and the bills are saying that if you don't get vaccinated,
01:14:33.220 that could affect your, your position here.
01:14:36.440 And so he is saying he's not getting vaccinated and he'll retire before he gets vaccinated.
01:14:42.540 It feels pretty strongly about it, I guess.
01:14:44.700 And I'm not sure if it's that he's nervous about the vaccine or he's got some sort of
01:14:49.860 principle against the vaccine.
01:14:52.040 I don't know.
01:14:52.640 I don't, he didn't really explain, but he did say,
01:14:55.380 I don't play for the money anymore.
01:14:57.220 That'd be nice.
01:14:58.300 Wouldn't that be nice?
01:14:58.980 That would be nice.
01:14:59.660 That'd be great.
01:15:00.420 I don't work for the money anymore.
01:15:01.800 I don't need it.
01:15:02.580 I don't need it.
01:15:03.140 I just do it for fun.
01:15:04.220 That'd be great.
01:15:05.380 My family has been taken care of.
01:15:07.840 Find me if you want.
01:15:09.140 My way of living and my values are more important to me than a dollar.
01:15:12.700 I'll be outside doing what I do.
01:15:14.480 I'll be out in public.
01:15:15.280 Look, if you're scared of me, then steer clear or get vaccinated.
01:15:20.200 I may die of COVID, but I'd rather die actually living.
01:15:24.940 So he's saying, you know, if you're so worried about it, but you're vaccinated, why would you
01:15:29.820 worry about it?
01:15:30.980 And I think that's a pretty good point.
01:15:32.340 Isn't the vaccine supposed to protect you from people who have COVID?
01:15:36.960 That is the point of it.
01:15:38.260 Seems like it.
01:15:39.280 And look, it does.
01:15:40.760 In my view, it does.
01:15:42.400 So I don't understand the messaging of this from the beginning.
01:15:45.420 I don't know why they've focused on people.
01:15:48.360 Like everyone's always talking about how are we going to get these people vaccinated?
01:15:51.000 Look, the pandemic ends the day everyone can get the vaccine and they can choose whether
01:15:58.120 to get it or not.
01:15:58.800 And, you know, we talked about the Dave Portnoy thing.
01:16:01.480 Maybe we'll play that coming up.
01:16:02.460 But it's like, you know, it's not over in the fact that there's still, I mean, I think
01:16:07.600 90 people died yesterday.
01:16:09.480 90.
01:16:10.140 Now we were at a point where-
01:16:11.180 Countrywide?
01:16:11.520 Yeah.
01:16:11.900 We were hitting 4,000 a day at one point.
01:16:14.460 Wow.
01:16:14.780 We're down to 90.
01:16:16.580 The lowest number since March 2020.
01:16:19.380 Now that's not over, right?
01:16:20.820 People are still dying.
01:16:21.900 It sucks.
01:16:22.680 Like we don't, you know, but overwhelmingly these people are the people who didn't get the vaccine.
01:16:27.000 And at some point you have to say to people, like, if you don't want to get the vaccine,
01:16:30.840 okay, don't.
01:16:32.640 And by the way, the people who don't like the vaccine get to say to people who do like
01:16:36.500 it, because they get the vaccine if you want.
01:16:38.220 But I mean, I think it's going to do these terrible things to you, right?
01:16:40.860 Like at some point you get to make your own decision as to what your risk tolerance is
01:16:45.520 and the way you want to live.
01:16:46.940 And I think we're at that point.
01:16:47.940 And I think that point is absolutely when the vaccine is available to anyone who wants to
01:16:52.140 get it for free, by the way, which it is right now.
01:16:55.160 Yep.
01:16:55.740 We're at that point.
01:16:57.080 We are.
01:16:57.760 And yes, there are risks, you know, at some point there could be, you know, variants that
01:17:02.220 there are all sorts of things.
01:17:03.700 You can come up with a million different scenarios.
01:17:05.680 But the bottom line is unless you want a society that does not operate, unless there are zero
01:17:11.360 deaths from anything, you're going to have to get to, you're going to have to set some
01:17:15.020 sort of standard here.
01:17:16.100 And the standard is like, we have something that's pretty non-effective in this.
01:17:20.720 We, ever since we started using it, our, you know, the deaths have fallen by over 90%
01:17:25.420 and we just need to sit here and say, look, if Cole Beasley doesn't want to get it, she
01:17:31.480 doesn't want to get it.
01:17:32.400 That's all.
01:17:33.220 Right.
01:17:33.320 Let people make their own freaking decisions.
01:17:35.380 If the Buffalo Bills are all vaccinated around him.
01:17:37.680 What does it matter?
01:17:38.540 Yeah, it doesn't matter.
01:17:40.240 There's little to no risk, you know?
01:17:42.260 And even if you do get it, there's probably, you're probably not going to the hospital
01:17:45.380 or anything like that.
01:17:46.680 Uh, but we just can't, we can't live in a sane society, apparently.
01:17:50.320 Apparently not.
01:17:51.580 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:03.360 Ah, it's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:06.120 888-727-BECK.
01:18:08.380 Uh, got some things on the COVID front.
01:18:11.080 Uh, we've got this Barstool Sports, Dave, Dave Portnoy, uh, celebrating the end of COVID-19.
01:18:18.340 And then they took him off of Twitter for it.
01:18:20.200 It's just so ridiculous.
01:18:21.240 The things that are going on right now, it's just unbelievable.
01:18:23.540 We'll get to that and much more in 60 seconds.
01:18:30.080 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:32.240 So when they're looking at the rest of 2021, uh, some market experts think it's pretty unlikely
01:18:37.020 that mortgage rates are going to stay down in the 2% range.
01:18:40.080 Do you think?
01:18:40.800 I don't know.
01:18:41.240 I kind of think that that's going to be everlasting.
01:18:44.260 Uh, it doesn't seem possible that rates are this low.
01:18:47.160 And with the amount of money we're spending right now, just devaluing our currency, you
01:18:52.300 know, this stuff is around the corner.
01:18:54.460 You know, these rates are going to go up eventually.
01:18:56.100 So if you're looking to refinance the mortgage, uh, on your home, uh, maybe refinance the
01:19:00.920 mortgage you already have, maybe, uh, consolidate a loan, uh, with other debt from credit cards
01:19:06.700 and all this other stuff, this might be a great time to do it.
01:19:09.840 Why not look into that?
01:19:10.840 Like, let's say right now, uh, you want to be saving as much money as possible, uh, every
01:19:16.180 month.
01:19:16.520 I know I do.
01:19:17.780 Uh, American financing is there for you.
01:19:19.900 They work for you, not the bank, which is why you're never going to feel like you're being
01:19:23.700 pushed into anything.

01:19:28.900 from family owned business that has been helping people just like you make the best of their
01:19:33.820 finances for over a couple of decades.

01:20:12.020 It's Patton and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program, 888-727-BECK.
01:20:17.800 The president of the EU, uh, not a scary organization at all.
01:20:23.640 I've always loved the European Union, haven't you?
01:20:27.820 Just the precursor to one world government.
01:20:30.620 It's just, it's awesome.
01:20:32.280 And to hear the president of the EU explaining how you in Europe can get your life back to
01:20:40.200 normal in that German accent she has, that just sounds so soothing to me.
01:20:45.400 Um, here's what she says, uh, is important to get your life back here.
01:20:51.940 Here she comes.
01:20:53.560 Good morning.
01:20:54.460 Good morning.
01:20:55.200 How are you?
01:20:56.100 Good to see you.
01:20:57.340 Before Easter, we promised to the Europeans that we will do everything possible so that
01:21:04.000 they can gain back, um, some normality when, uh, planning for their, uh, well-deserved
01:21:10.800 summer holidays.
01:21:12.260 So on Monday, the European Parliament and the European Council signed the regulation for
01:21:19.020 the EU digital COVID certificate.
01:21:21.860 Oh, good.
01:21:22.360 It is applicable from the 1st of July on, but if you want to, as a member state, you can
01:21:27.600 sign up early voluntarily.
01:21:29.100 And that's what Belgium did.
01:21:32.400 Belgium allows us as of today, um, to, uh, travel with a certificate and they issued with
01:21:39.340 a certificate and here is mine.
01:21:43.100 So everyone who is fully vaccinated or tested negative or has recovered from COVID can get
01:21:52.980 one and, uh, we have right now 15 member states that have already signed up and from the 1st of
01:22:01.140 July, all 27 member states have to apply these EU digital certificates for the COVID.
01:22:10.120 I am planning now to start my tour through 27 member states for the next generation EU,
01:22:16.080 our, um, recovery and resilient plan.
01:22:18.880 And I'm very curious to test and to see how this certificate will work.
01:22:24.480 Thank you.
01:22:25.280 That's wonderful.
01:22:26.100 All right.
01:22:26.720 That's great.
01:22:27.400 She held hers up.
01:22:28.220 Can I just take a picture of that?
01:22:29.520 Uh, yes.
01:22:30.600 Is that okay?
01:22:31.140 Yes.
01:22:31.660 That's fine.
01:22:32.420 That's fine.
01:22:33.320 So essentially what she's saying is, uh, you must have your papers.
01:22:39.760 They'll be digital, but you must have some.
01:22:43.700 We have a ways of making you have your papers.
01:22:47.720 Please.
01:22:49.140 It's great.
01:22:49.980 I love it.
01:22:50.560 She, at least she said, please.
01:22:52.160 That's nice.
01:22:52.960 I don't think she did actually say, please.
01:22:55.040 I think I gave her too much credit there.
01:22:57.200 Ursula von Ursula Gertrude von der Leyen.
01:23:01.360 I'll say too, like, you know, there's been this thing where in, in entertainment, they haven't
01:23:08.540 wanted to use, like, let's say Muslims as villains because, you know, as you know, Pat, Americans
01:23:15.560 would immediately just start killing Muslims in the streets if they saw, you know, a villain
01:23:20.760 on 24 was actually Muslim and not backed by some German.
01:23:24.240 It's always a German or a Serbian or a Serbian.
01:23:28.060 You can be Serbian.
01:23:29.400 Yes.
01:23:30.020 To be a victim on TV.
01:23:31.340 To be the, uh, to be the villain on TV, you have to be Serbian or German.
01:23:34.800 Well, I don't know.
01:23:35.580 Now, look, the Germans did a lot.
01:23:38.260 They did.
01:23:38.660 To earn, uh, some, uh, some of the criticism, uh, but the, it's been so long since I've
01:23:45.120 seen a villain without a Russian or German accent.
01:23:48.720 Whenever I hear it, I just assume they're a villain.
01:23:52.240 You've done the reverse.
01:23:53.520 You've, you've told me you've tried so hard to make me, uh, not want to be manipulated
01:23:57.800 into thinking that Muslims could possibly be terrorists that now you've made me believe
01:24:02.540 all Serbians are terrorists and all Germans.
01:24:05.580 All of them.
01:24:06.960 Yep.
01:24:07.580 It's sad.
01:24:08.480 And will forever be.
01:24:09.980 It's always going to be that way.
01:24:12.300 You could be saying the nicest things in the world with that accent and it's going to
01:24:16.400 sound creepy in some way.
01:24:18.280 Now, I think.
01:24:19.060 No question.
01:24:19.640 The heavy lifting in this front was done by a man named Adolf long ago, but there is
01:24:23.960 something just about that accent.
01:24:26.420 It ain't the farfing noogen.
01:24:29.100 You've just done a Volkswagen commercial, but it sounds like you're threatening genocide,
01:24:33.140 doesn't it?
01:24:33.520 Oh, by the way, don't look back at the history of Volkswagen.
01:24:37.140 Uh, so definitely don't look back at that.
01:24:43.800 You're not going to want to know that, but, uh, enjoy your meep meep car.
01:24:47.720 Uh, it's, it's, it's, it is a, uh, I mean, look, a country certainly, uh, with their own
01:24:57.480 sovereignty has, uh, the right to require whatever they want.
01:25:02.360 I mean, frankly, if, if what, if there are countries that do all sorts of really terrible
01:25:07.640 things, uh, with the letting, not letting people in for, for tourism, uh, they can do
01:25:14.240 really whatever they want on that front, uh, as a sovereign nation, as we would protect
01:25:18.200 our right to do whatever we want.
01:25:20.200 And though you think with, we have something in common with the Western world, right?
01:25:26.240 Like we're supposed to have some sort of shared principle structure.
01:25:29.520 And, you know, I, it does make you nervous when, when Germans go down this road, it hasn't
01:25:34.700 turned out well in the past.
01:25:36.020 Right.
01:25:36.740 And when Europe as a whole is going down that road, it's a little, it's a little unnerving,
01:25:41.720 I'd say.
01:25:42.980 And it makes you wonder if this administration will do the same thing because this administration
01:25:49.140 is definitely influenced by European movements.
01:25:52.880 I mean, the Democrats are all about the European socialism.
01:25:57.860 They love it.
01:25:58.340 Yeah.
01:25:59.140 And it's weird.
01:25:59.740 Like the vaccine passport thing, there are things, there are real reasons to fear elements
01:26:04.120 of that.
01:26:04.740 Mm-hmm.
01:26:06.540 International visitors.
01:26:08.900 I mean, we banned all visitors from under the Trump administration from many countries,
01:26:15.540 right?
01:26:16.580 Right.
01:26:16.820 Because it's our freaking sovereign right to do so.
01:26:19.640 And we have that right.
01:26:21.340 And if we want to say we don't want anyone, like for example, Brazil has been in a nonstop
01:26:26.400 catastrophe from COVID for a very long time.
01:26:28.760 And we've said, eh, maybe we don't want any Brazilian tourism at the moment.
01:26:33.280 I think that's totally justifiable.
01:26:34.800 It's just kind of prudent.
01:26:35.460 Yeah.
01:26:35.820 Right.
01:26:36.320 Yeah.
01:26:36.480 So in some ways, I guess you could, they blocked almost all travel to Europe for a long time
01:26:43.260 from outside of it.
01:26:44.820 And this is their way of supposedly opening things up.
01:26:48.440 They have the right to do that.
01:26:49.640 I mean, I just don't know if it makes a lot of sense in the grand scheme of things.
01:26:53.980 And it's also going to be completely unmanageable.
01:26:56.420 You know, I went on a flight, you know, when there was more of a active COVID situation.
01:27:03.420 This is, I guess, late last year, mid to late last year.
01:27:06.720 And there was, I went to a state that had a quarantine for outside visitors.
01:27:13.420 And it was one of the first flights I took.
01:27:15.760 And I was supposed to, when I flew in, you know, I guess lock myself in a house for God
01:27:21.860 knows how long.
01:27:22.480 Two weeks, 14 days or whatever.
01:27:24.320 I wasn't even going for two weeks.
01:27:25.620 I was only going for a few days.
01:27:26.900 It's like, well, I mean, basically you're saying I have to go directly from the airport
01:27:30.480 to a house and stay inside the house for the entire trip.
01:27:33.400 And are you saying that you didn't do that?
01:27:34.400 No, of course not.
01:27:35.060 That's not what I'm saying.
01:27:35.660 But I did have, I was traveling with a companion who decided not to do that.
01:27:40.600 Really?
01:27:40.940 Yeah.
01:27:41.660 I found it to be very shocking that they would, they would.
01:27:44.880 Now you didn't follow suit and leave quarantine.
01:27:46.760 No, no, no.
01:27:47.140 I did everything exactly by the book.
01:27:49.360 So I want to make sure that part is on the air, on record.
01:27:52.240 Because what state was this?
01:27:53.600 It was a, I can't remember the state, Pat.
01:27:55.320 You can't remember the state?
01:27:56.620 Oh, gosh.
01:27:57.020 It was a state.
01:27:58.000 It was one of the states.
01:27:59.720 That I know.
01:28:00.380 It was in the United States.
01:28:01.880 One of the states.
01:28:03.380 Was it one of the contiguous states?
01:28:05.100 It was one of the contiguous states.
01:28:06.600 Okay.
01:28:06.900 I believe it was on the eastern half of the United States.
01:28:09.760 That's all I remember.
01:28:10.680 Huh.
01:28:10.920 Like a New York or Connecticut kind of state.
01:28:13.600 Yeah.
01:28:13.680 And we should really leave my experience.
01:28:15.240 Who cares about what I did?
01:28:16.400 Let me tell you about my companion.
01:28:17.600 All right.
01:28:17.920 What did your companion do?
01:28:18.720 So my companion was wondering what, like, this situation doesn't make any sense.
01:28:25.000 What do you mean?
01:28:26.200 How are you going to tell me?
01:28:28.440 How are you going to enforce the idea?
01:28:31.280 This is what my companion was saying.
01:28:32.680 How are you going to enforce a quarantine from someone who's visiting as a U.S. citizen inside the United States?
01:28:40.060 Like, are you-
01:28:40.540 That's a good question.
01:28:41.000 Are you carding everyone everywhere they go?
01:28:46.280 Obviously not, right?
01:28:47.800 There's a lot of-
01:28:48.360 So you were just supposed to voluntarily do this.
01:28:51.140 Yeah.
01:28:51.400 So you basically-
01:28:52.180 Nobody checked up on you.
01:28:52.600 You get off the plane and there's a person there with a clipboard and says, yes, where are you staying?
01:28:57.920 And it's interesting, as my companion realized, if you just walk by that person, they don't know if you're from that state in the contiguous states or not.
01:29:07.980 They just walk, you kind of walked right by that person.
01:29:11.100 So you just followed your companion's lead on that?
01:29:13.200 No, I-
01:29:14.080 You reported.
01:29:14.700 I reported.
01:29:16.120 But my companion did not.
01:29:18.600 Wow.
01:29:18.980 And I, you know-
01:29:19.800 Your companion's a rebel.
01:29:20.860 My companion's very rebellious.
01:29:22.340 And my companion looked, though, at the law before this trip and realized that the-
01:29:27.920 I think the fine was $500 if you were to get caught.
01:29:30.900 Now, what-
01:29:32.700 Again, what-
01:29:34.340 I don't do these things, but this companion said, what exactly-
01:29:39.200 Think about the risk profile here.
01:29:41.300 You could either not have the trip that you're taking because you're stuck inside a house and can't do anything the entire time.
01:29:46.940 Or you could risk a $500 fine.
01:29:50.020 Now, a $500 fine is not nothing.
01:29:51.540 That's 500 bucks.
01:29:52.540 But what has to happen for you to get fined for $500?
01:29:55.680 You have to, I guess, have a separate interaction with the police.
01:29:59.440 Like, maybe if you were to get pulled over, maybe if you started a bar fight, like, they're going to card you, realize you should have been quarantined, and then add on a $500 fine, I guess, would be how this would happen.
01:30:10.720 I don't even know how it would happen.
01:30:13.420 That would be bad for me because I start so many bar fights.
01:30:16.180 You're a huge bar fight.
01:30:16.940 Guys, why you go on vacation is to start bar fights.
01:30:19.520 Nothing better than a good old-fashioned bar fight.
01:30:22.260 That's Pat Gray.
01:30:23.180 Yeah.
01:30:23.440 You know?
01:30:23.880 It's me.
01:30:24.280 So, I know my companion thought to themselves, like, what if I just continue to keep walking here and don't alert them of my status in the state, and everything worked out fine for my companion.
01:30:41.180 I felt stupid because I was inside the whole time, and they went out and did whatever they wanted, and everything turned out fine.
01:30:46.460 But you pulled up in quarantine.
01:30:47.960 Was it quarantine?
01:30:48.820 Yeah.
01:30:49.420 If I even took the flight.
01:30:50.520 You know, I could have been a dream.
01:30:51.460 I think only my companion went, now that I think about it.
01:30:55.320 I may not have gone on this trip at all.
01:30:57.100 That's really weird.
01:30:57.840 Yeah.
01:30:58.180 No, it's a crazy time.
01:30:59.240 It was a crazy time.
01:31:00.080 Were you feverish during this particular time?
01:31:01.680 No, no.
01:31:02.480 Maybe you had COVID while you were traveling.
01:31:04.840 You know what?
01:31:05.260 I know I didn't.
01:31:06.200 No.
01:31:06.500 That I do know because I got it later.
01:31:08.760 Right.
01:31:09.080 But it is one of those things where these things are, like, the mask mandate in Texas was an example of this.
01:31:15.220 Because I stand by my belief to this day that literally zero people in the state of Texas were actually fined under the mask mandate.
01:31:24.480 I think the number is zero.
01:31:26.320 And I think that was by design.
01:31:27.620 By design.
01:31:28.320 I think that it was like, hey, mask mandate.
01:31:31.040 And it's like, well, how are we going to reinforce this?
01:31:32.900 We're not.
01:31:33.340 We're not going to.
01:31:33.840 We're not.
01:31:34.200 We want people to know that we think they should wear them.
01:31:36.640 Right.
01:31:36.720 But we're not actually going to do anything.
01:31:38.620 Yes.
01:31:38.740 Now, private businesses can do what they want to do.
01:31:41.000 Some towns, I believe, probably did fine them under their town or county statute.
01:31:46.000 That may have happened.
01:31:47.020 But as far as a statewide mandate, it was a mino, a mandate in name only.
01:31:53.700 Yeah.
01:31:54.180 And, like, that doesn't mean that I liked it.
01:31:56.820 But you see these things.
01:31:57.960 People do it all the time.
01:31:58.660 I still see signs on buildings here.
01:32:00.880 Mask, strongly recommended.
01:32:02.440 And then you go in there and literally no one, including the employees, are wearing them.
01:32:06.300 Right.
01:32:06.460 They just want to say they're doing something at this point.
01:32:10.180 You know, is the pandemic over?
01:32:12.400 Well, people are still dying.
01:32:14.000 You should be careful, especially if you haven't been vaccinated.
01:32:16.400 You should be careful.
01:32:17.900 But on the other side of that is, as a society right now, we are at a point in which people
01:32:27.820 can take these treatments.
01:32:29.340 Maybe you believe it's hydroxychloroquine, right?
01:32:31.220 Mm-hmm.
01:32:32.120 Then you take on the risk of taking hydroxychloroquine, which is, I mean, risk-wise, I think, very
01:32:37.820 minimal.
01:32:38.320 Whether, how much it will do, it does seem to help in certain circumstances.
01:32:41.340 Maybe that's what you think it is.
01:32:42.320 The bottom line is, all of these treatments are available for everyone now.
01:32:45.500 Mm-hmm.
01:32:46.220 So, we are at the, that's what my definition of over is.
01:32:50.320 Right?
01:32:51.200 Yeah.
01:32:51.500 There's a way for people to avoid this if they want to avoid it.
01:32:54.160 They don't have to avoid it, but they, if they want to avoid it, they can avoid it in
01:32:59.560 most circumstances.
01:33:00.380 And you're not going to have zero deaths.
01:33:03.180 It's going to take a long time to get to zero.
01:33:05.600 Yeah.
01:33:05.820 But, I mean, from 4,000 a day to 90?
01:33:08.980 90.
01:33:09.320 And I think the average is something like 300 now.
01:33:12.980 Now, the flu is like 100 a day.
01:33:16.440 So, if we're down to, I mean, we did 90 yesterday.
01:33:19.840 Now, 100 a day spread over an entire year, right?
01:33:22.720 So, you're saying maybe 30 or 40, 365, you know, 365 days.
01:33:26.440 So, say 36,500 deaths for the flu is a median number.
01:33:30.780 Probably an average number for the flu, yeah.
01:33:32.780 Except it's been eradicated since COVID.
01:33:34.800 Yeah.
01:33:35.060 I mean, it's been almost none the last year.
01:33:37.000 Yeah.
01:33:37.320 But, okay.
01:33:38.600 All right.
01:33:38.960 So, that is something that we have all sort of designated that we can go on with life.
01:33:45.820 In that scenario.
01:33:47.440 It sucks.
01:33:48.420 I keep thinking to myself, like, maybe we should, instead of saying the flu is nothing,
01:33:54.100 maybe we should start considering a big issue, right?
01:33:56.760 Like, I think 36,000 people dying here sucks.
01:33:59.380 Let's try to get that to zero, too.
01:34:00.680 Yeah.
01:34:01.040 That's a lot.
01:34:01.520 But, I mean, look, we have, we don't have a treatment.
01:34:04.220 We don't have a 95% flu vaccine.
01:34:06.020 We do have several of when it comes to, you know, the products of Donald Trump's Operation Warp Speed.
01:34:14.780 And, not that anyone in the media will ever give him credit for it, but we do have that.
01:34:20.800 We've had success with it.
01:34:22.620 And, at some point, people get to make their own decisions.
01:34:25.320 They're big boys and girls.
01:34:26.640 Mm-hmm.
01:34:27.140 You know?
01:34:27.600 And that's, I think, a fair definition of over.
01:34:30.060 Yeah.
01:34:30.180 Whether you can choose to get the virus or not is a good definition of over.
01:34:35.940 888-727-BECK.
01:34:41.140 According to a recent study, 330 million people across 10 countries became victims of cybercrime
01:34:46.420 just in the past year.
01:34:48.060 And another 55 million actually had their identity stolen.
01:34:51.320 55 million.
01:34:52.180 This costs, of course, people money.
01:34:56.340 It also costs up, you know, a lot of their time.
01:34:59.960 Cybercrime victims collectively spent almost 2.7 billion hours trying to resolve their issues.
01:35:07.040 I don't want to deal with that.
01:35:09.180 It makes me glad that something like LifeLock is available.
01:35:12.120 It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.
01:35:16.160 Every day, we put our information at risk on the internet.
01:35:18.640 That LifeLock helps detect a wide range of identity thefts and, you know, they'll send
01:35:22.780 you alert.
01:35:23.280 Plus, you have access to a dedicated restoration specialist if you become a victim.
01:35:27.700 No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses.
01:35:31.380 But you can keep what's yours with LifeLock by Norton.

01:36:03.580 You know what hasn't worked real well is the Chinese vaccine.
01:36:08.580 That does not seem to be going well.
01:36:11.540 It's not going well in Chile where they're using it.
01:36:14.380 It's not going well in Indonesia.
01:36:16.020 In fact, 350 doctors and medical workers in Indonesia have caught COVID-19.
01:36:22.840 Dozens have been hospitalized since getting vaccinated.
01:36:25.840 Do you believe that the freaking Chinese, after the way they handled the outbreak of
01:36:29.180 this thing, and maybe it came from a lab, very possible, came from one of their labs
01:36:33.480 as a screw-up or worse, and now they're providing the world with crappy vaccines to solve it.
01:36:41.280 It's incredible.
01:36:42.080 I mean, I hate when people say, and I do it sometimes, like, oh, you know, the vaccines have been successful.
01:36:47.120 Well, let's be careful here.
01:36:49.140 What's come out of the United States has been successful.
01:36:52.340 Yes.
01:36:52.800 What's come out of Great Britain, mostly successful, but like maybe not quite as much.
01:36:57.140 Less successful than the U.S.
01:36:57.940 But still pretty good.
01:36:59.160 Yeah.
01:36:59.540 The AstraZeneca thing's been pretty good.
01:37:01.420 The Chinese one, even the Russian one, has seemingly been pretty solid.
01:37:07.580 The Chinese, the two from Chinese, Sinovac, Sinopharm, have been...
01:37:12.080 Not good.
01:37:13.400 Have not worked very well.
01:37:15.100 I mean, in some cases, like, only 50% or less.
01:37:17.820 Yeah.
01:37:18.600 Which, again, maybe it's helping on the margins.
01:37:21.560 It seems like it does not...
01:37:23.240 I will say it does not seem like the immunity lasts very long.
01:37:26.420 No, no, it doesn't.
01:37:28.620 It seems like they have had real problems with that.
01:37:33.440 And a lot of these countries that embrace the Chinese technology are learning how that works.
01:37:39.880 Not so well.
01:37:41.140 Not so well.
01:37:42.780 So it's important.
01:37:43.680 That's why I think it's important to point out when you talk about, you might talk about the vaccine.
01:37:47.960 Talk about it as the product of Donald Trump's Operation Warp Speed.
01:37:54.480 Because they will not give him an ounce of credit for this.
01:37:58.120 In fact, they just blame him for everything.
01:38:00.300 When he deserves virtually all the credit.
01:38:02.880 For politicians, he deserves all of it, in my view.
01:38:05.440 Yes.
01:38:05.780 Along with the other, you know...
01:38:07.180 The researchers and the...
01:38:08.680 Yeah, obviously.
01:38:09.920 Like, the big pharmaceutical companies that produce these things deserve a lot of credit for it, too.
01:38:13.720 But he took all the red tape out.
01:38:15.440 He provided funds to spur this thing, to get it going, the seed money, to get everything started.
01:38:22.760 He's the one that cleared the path for them.
01:38:25.440 Yeah, you can overdo it by giving politicians credit for such things.
01:38:29.400 There's a lot of factors.
01:38:30.660 But when it comes to what he could have done in that scenario, he did very well.
01:38:35.780 And now it's just like Biden gets all of the credit for it.
01:38:39.720 I mean, look, people talk about this all the time.
01:38:41.720 Like, Donald Trump's anti-vaccine.
01:38:43.680 How can that be possible?
01:38:44.920 The man...
01:38:45.800 He is not anti-vaccine.
01:38:46.960 Operation Warp Speed.
01:38:48.140 And, by the way, after having COVID, he still took the vaccine.
01:38:52.980 Right.
01:38:53.280 As he was leaving the White House.
01:38:54.400 He still took it.
01:38:55.380 Right.
01:38:55.700 Why did he take it?
01:38:57.680 That's right.
01:38:59.240 I don't understand.
01:39:00.680 He still took it.
01:39:02.000 We do forget that.
01:39:02.900 That he actually got the vaccine in addition to pushing it forward.
01:39:07.620 Wow.
01:39:08.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:39:10.560 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:39:19.340 Glenn's back tomorrow morning.
01:39:21.840 888-727-BECK.
01:39:24.120 Stu and I have just been ruminating on the fact that there's some strange things going on here with the vaccine.
01:39:31.500 Because I think we all cheered when President Trump cleared the way for this to happen.
01:39:39.960 Right?
01:39:40.280 Everybody wanted it.
01:39:41.140 It's a big part of his re-election campaign.
01:39:42.640 Huge.
01:39:43.800 And his claim that we're going to have a vaccine by the end of the year.
01:39:48.000 And the Democrats were apoplectic.
01:39:50.520 You can't have a vaccine by the end of the year.
01:39:53.020 That's ridiculous.
01:39:54.500 You're insane.
01:39:56.260 And he did it.
01:39:58.040 They produced it.
01:40:00.040 Three American companies came up with it.
01:40:03.020 You got the Pfizer.
01:40:04.360 You got the Moderna.
01:40:05.740 And you got Johnson & Johnson all coming up with a vaccine within a year.
01:40:10.600 Incredible.
01:40:11.260 How did that become a bad thing then?
01:40:13.260 I don't know.
01:40:13.660 It's weird.
01:40:14.540 The way the politics have played out on it are very strange as well.
01:40:17.160 And that, like, I'm generalizing overwhelmingly in that, like, the vast majority of every party is fine with the vaccine.
01:40:28.240 But I'm just, when there is, there is opposition everywhere.
01:40:30.580 And vaccine opposition has never been a very partisan issue.
01:40:34.040 I mean, the most famous people in the United States that oppose the vaccine are Jetty McCarthy.
01:40:40.000 And Jim Carrey.
01:40:40.680 Jim Carrey, when they were married in particular.
01:40:43.300 Yep.
01:40:43.520 And in addition to that, RFK Jr.
01:40:45.500 Oh, yeah.
01:40:46.360 Big time leftists.
01:40:47.560 Big time leftists.
01:40:48.800 I mean, hardcore leftists that have been running, you know, anti-vaccine stuff for a very long time.
01:40:54.400 And, like, again, if that's you, that's whatever.
01:40:56.300 You do, like, this is America.
01:40:58.220 You get to choose what you want to do with yourself, right?
01:41:00.940 Like, you should be able to choose.
01:41:02.380 So, I'm not.
01:41:04.220 My body, my choice.
01:41:05.540 There you go.
01:41:06.020 Should certainly apply to vaccines.
01:41:08.000 Certainly should.
01:41:08.580 However, just think of the politics now for a moment here.
01:41:12.720 We have basically a lot of people who are saying the vaccine, you got to get vaccinated, got to get vaccinated.
01:41:19.580 A lot of them are Democrats.
01:41:21.180 And none of them will give Donald Trump any credit for it.
01:41:25.080 Not one ounce of credit.
01:41:25.700 One ounce of credit for this coming across.
01:41:28.480 On the other hand, you have a lot of people who really love Donald Trump who say the vaccine is bad, but won't give Donald Trump any blame.
01:41:36.680 Which is very, it's very weird.
01:41:38.900 Like, it seems to me that if you think the vaccine is bad, you should think probably Donald Trump was a bad president.
01:41:46.100 Right?
01:41:46.340 Like, to the point of saying, like, here's a guy who pushed through.
01:41:49.400 This thing I think is really bad.
01:41:51.080 Certainly if Joe Biden came up with a vaccine and you thought it was bad, you'd give Joe Biden blame.
01:41:55.720 I would.
01:41:56.300 Right?
01:41:56.460 I also, I think the vaccine has been good.
01:42:00.120 And I give Donald Trump credit for that.
01:42:02.120 And they keep saying, like, well, he had no, he had no ability, he had no plan to roll this out to people.
01:42:06.880 He had no plan.
01:42:08.120 What are you talking about?
01:42:09.240 He had over a million people a day being vaccinated when he left office.
01:42:14.540 Go back and watch the 60 Minutes with the guy, the general, because they ran, he was a guy who was, you know, military experts on logistics.
01:42:25.280 They put a guy from the military in charge of logistics during the Trump administration.
01:42:29.760 They interviewed him on 60 Minutes.
01:42:31.160 He went through the entire plan.
01:42:32.140 It was incredibly detailed.
01:42:33.540 Just what they talked about in 60 Minutes.
01:42:35.480 All the incredible challenges of getting all this vaccine out as fast as possible to people, making sure that everyone can get it who wants to get it.
01:42:42.280 All that stuff happened.
01:42:43.180 And even Fauci said, yeah, no, we had a plan.
01:42:45.620 Of course we had a plan.
01:42:46.680 They were just lying about this, the incoming administration.
01:42:51.700 And now Biden gets all the credit from the left and the media for their amazing job to get this done.
01:42:58.440 Two thirds of adults are vaccinated already.
01:43:02.100 And we're, Donald Trump is just sitting down here in Florida being like, wait a minute.
01:43:06.620 Like, you guys all said this couldn't happen.
01:43:10.120 You had people like Kamala Harris who were coming out saying, if Donald Trump is involved, I'm not taking that vaccine.
01:43:15.400 That sounds terrible.
01:43:16.340 Like, they were doing all the things they're blaming the right for now.
01:43:19.480 Yeah.
01:43:19.980 Yeah.
01:43:20.120 And, you know, Trump, who deserves an incredible amount of credit for this, ending a pandemic, not just for the United States, but all around the world.
01:43:31.760 Yeah.
01:43:31.980 It might be his, the best part of his legacy.
01:43:34.920 It might be, it might be the biggest thing he did in office because nobody else has pulled that off.
01:43:41.800 No other politician in the history of the world has been able to oversee from zero to vaccine in under a year.
01:43:52.780 Yeah.
01:43:53.040 The next closest vaccine to be developed and available and distributed was four years.
01:44:00.760 Yeah.
01:44:01.400 The mumps.
01:44:01.940 Mumps.
01:44:02.420 Yeah.
01:44:02.760 The mumps was something like four years.
01:44:03.940 It's like 10 and I think that's the next fastest.
01:44:06.280 And I don't even know that I would even say it was fully distributed in four years.
01:44:09.840 I think they came up with it in four years.
01:44:11.080 That's incredible.
01:44:11.420 I mean, think about this, Pat.
01:44:12.460 It's a miracle.
01:44:13.520 You go back to, we're in Pride Month.
01:44:15.400 I don't know if you've noticed that at any one of the, any building you've ever walked into.
01:44:19.680 But we're in Pride Month right now.
01:44:21.220 And I did a show on this right before vacation in that there's still this belief that Ronald Reagan never said AIDS until 1987.
01:44:30.080 Never even said the word AIDS.
01:44:31.260 It's a lie.
01:44:31.700 It's not true.
01:44:32.540 Absolutely.
01:44:32.820 He increased funding by incredible amounts for research on AIDS throughout his administration.
01:44:40.220 And, you know.
01:44:40.700 He doubled or tripled it every year.
01:44:42.440 Yeah.
01:44:42.840 Every year in office.
01:44:43.780 It was incredible.
01:44:44.380 I mean, like, they poured money into this.
01:44:46.460 And you should also point out that none of the journalists asked him any questions about AIDS throughout the entire 1984 campaign.
01:44:52.440 Not one question in any debate about AIDS.
01:44:54.540 Because people forget nobody talked about it until later.
01:44:57.800 Because they didn't understand it.
01:44:59.040 They didn't know what it was.
01:44:59.960 But the most fascinating part about this is it took them four years to find out and figure out what the virus was that was causing it.
01:45:11.300 Think about that in the COVID era for a second.
01:45:14.140 It took them not four years to come up with a vaccine.
01:45:16.380 It took them four years to figure out what the virus was.
01:45:20.520 They were just seeing people die.
01:45:21.880 And they're like, AIDS, I guess, immune.
01:45:24.180 I don't know.
01:45:24.900 Like, it's something with their immune system.
01:45:26.620 And who was head of the National Institute of Health at that time?
01:45:30.140 I'm trying to think.
01:45:31.060 I can't think of the name.
01:45:32.020 What's that guy's name?
01:45:34.420 Doctor.
01:45:35.340 Faust.
01:45:35.940 Faust.
01:45:36.260 Faust.
01:45:36.600 Faust.
01:45:36.620 Faust.
01:45:36.660 Faust.
01:45:37.180 Faust.
01:45:37.780 Faust.
01:45:38.180 I can't remember.
01:45:40.080 It's not important to the story, obviously.
01:45:41.780 But it was hard, right?
01:45:44.800 Coming up and figuring these things out is really difficult.
01:45:48.920 To find out what the virus is, then come up with a solution for it, go through multiple rounds of testing, and get it fully distributed to the United States.
01:45:58.860 And by the way, we're at, I think, almost 90% now of people above 65 years of age have had the vaccine.
01:46:05.720 And that's really the main population we're talking about, right?
01:46:09.040 Yeah.
01:46:09.240 You know, there's people with associated comorbidities and stuff that are also important.
01:46:13.820 But, like, what you're talking about, it's been mostly the elderly people who have died from this disease.
01:46:19.040 And 90%, almost, I think it's 88%, have been vaccinated above that age group.
01:46:24.200 That's a freaking miracle.
01:46:26.400 It is.
01:46:26.860 It's a miracle that that's happened in a year.
01:46:29.260 There is nothing about the history of science that would say this could happen this quickly.
01:46:35.720 And Donald Trump gets zilch when it comes to credit for it.
01:46:39.820 Zilch.
01:46:40.740 He is, he is, they act as if he never cared about anyone dying from this virus from day one.
01:46:48.780 Because they pull out something he said in February of 2020 where he didn't think it was a big deal.
01:46:53.800 No one thought it was going to be a big deal in February of 2020.
01:46:56.380 Including Anthony Fauci.
01:46:57.820 Including Fauci.
01:46:58.540 You can quote from the same era telling people in the United States, not only publicly, but also in his private emails, that it's not really a big risk right now for America.
01:47:08.280 Could turn into one.
01:47:09.760 But right now it's not a big risk.
01:47:12.140 So, again, and this is, I guess, typical with the press.
01:47:15.720 It's just interesting to see how the supporters and the people who are in opposition of Trump.
01:47:21.060 Like, I mean, Trump, you listen to Trump talk about the vaccine and he wants credit for it.
01:47:24.680 You know, I mean, Donald Trump comes on and he's like, look, I did this incredible thing.
01:47:29.500 Talk about it.
01:47:30.320 Like, you know, he likes that.
01:47:31.880 And he deserves it.
01:47:33.120 Yeah, he does.
01:47:33.620 But, you know, he's, I think, conflicted because I think a lot of his base is, you know, not so enthused about the operation.
01:47:42.840 And, you know, they paid attention to the side effects.
01:47:45.120 And there's been a lot of coverage about the side effects and whether or not 4,000 plus people have died, which is a pretty high number when you're talking about vaccines.
01:47:55.120 Yeah.
01:47:55.340 But, again, when you look at the rates, it's important to look at the rates.
01:47:58.980 People die all the time with or without COVID, with or without vaccines.
01:48:03.040 Right.
01:48:03.200 And you look at the rates of overall death and the people who are in the vaccinated group are dying at a lower rate, lower rate than normal, lower rate than normal.
01:48:13.100 That is what I mean.
01:48:14.700 And what about the number of people that have grown tails?
01:48:17.200 That's a higher rate than that's a higher rate.
01:48:18.800 Yes, there are way more tails.
01:48:20.380 And a third eye is that higher to third eyes about average.
01:48:23.500 Yeah, about average.
01:48:25.120 Now, fourth eye, that's almost definitely the Moderna vaccine.
01:48:29.080 Oh, wow.
01:48:29.780 If you have a fourth eye right now and you're like, wow, my vision's incredibly good.
01:48:35.200 And then look in the mirror.
01:48:36.100 There are four eyes on your face.
01:48:38.340 That's you definitely got.
01:48:39.720 You got the Moderna vaccine.
01:48:41.120 If you get the second shot, it goes away.
01:48:42.800 Remember that.
01:48:43.500 Oh.
01:48:43.780 It's only if you have one shot of Moderna do you get four eyes.
01:48:47.000 Oh, you don't.
01:48:47.460 If you get the second one, those two eyes fade away.
01:48:49.440 But you might not want to lose the vision gains.
01:48:51.240 They're incredible.
01:48:52.620 You're like at 80-20.
01:48:53.940 I might just keep it at one shot.
01:48:55.640 Yeah.
01:48:56.040 I mean, you look a little strange.
01:48:58.020 But I mean, you put a visor on, people aren't going to be able to tell.
01:49:02.100 And you can see.
01:49:03.400 I mean, miles, Pat.
01:49:05.000 You can see miles away.
01:49:06.600 Oh, wow, really?
01:49:06.840 Yeah.
01:49:07.380 The two extra eyes make that big a difference?
01:49:09.340 Yeah, because they have different zoom lenses.
01:49:11.500 Oh.
01:49:11.720 It's like your iPhone.
01:49:12.460 If you look at your iPhone, this one has three cameras on it.
01:49:15.300 Oh, yeah.
01:49:15.480 And it's like this.
01:49:16.140 And you can see the third eye, and all of a sudden, you can zoom in.
01:49:18.140 So you put a fourth camera in there, and it'd be really...
01:49:20.740 You can see the moon.
01:49:23.540 It's true.
01:49:24.260 From inside the building, I'm saying.
01:49:25.600 I could see the moon with two eyes, but you can also see it.
01:49:29.300 I'm talking about inside this building, you can just point it up.
01:49:32.920 Right.
01:49:33.200 And you can see the moon with it.
01:49:34.180 And you can just see right through x-ray vision.
01:49:35.720 Yeah.
01:49:36.280 It's a little awkward walking through department stores, but other than that...
01:49:39.820 So stupid.
01:49:43.960 All right.
01:49:44.740 888-727-BECK.
01:49:46.640 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn.
01:49:50.740 Oh, man.
01:49:52.240 You know, part of the big blockbuster action movie where everything goes really quiet,
01:49:56.660 and then out of nowhere, there's like a huge blast of noise from the trombones and the drums,
01:50:01.260 and you know the monster is about to come crashing through buildings and tearing everything up.
01:50:07.100 That's sort of where we're at with the financial world right now.
01:50:09.380 If you're even slightly paying attention, you've noticed that we're headed for all sorts of economic trouble,
01:50:15.320 and probably it's not that far away.
01:50:18.020 So it begs the question, what are you going to do to prepare for that?
01:50:20.800 Do you have the lowest interest rate you can get on your mortgage, for instance?
01:50:24.200 We think these rates are going up.
01:50:25.380 I think they're going up at least.
01:50:26.960 It certainly seems like with the amount of spending that we're doing right now and printing of money,
01:50:30.880 there's nowhere else for them to go.
01:50:32.520 And they're already so low.
01:50:33.940 So why not ask the questions you need to be asking and see if refinancing is right for you?
01:50:39.600 The mortgage experts from American Financing are in it for you, not the bank,

01:51:45.000 We have a few Nancy Pelosi sucks pens still available.
01:51:49.360 Andrew Cuomo is awful.
01:51:50.360 T-shirts.
01:51:51.120 Yeah.
01:51:51.240 All sorts of very fun things where I say bad things about liberals on shirts.
01:51:55.460 So, it's all there and you can load up on that stuff as well.
01:51:58.400 And you can load up on cookies, right, Pat?
01:51:59.840 Yes, you could.
01:52:00.560 You could go to Kexi.com and load up on all kinds of delicious cookies.
01:52:05.600 The salted caramel ones, the Texas sheet cake.
01:52:08.580 It's just so good.
01:52:09.940 For Father's Day, we had the bacon maple, which I didn't think was going to be that great.
01:52:13.500 I'm like, eh, I don't know if you should do that.
01:52:15.360 Yeah, the salty sweet, the meat on the cookie thing.
01:52:18.720 Yeah, I'm not usually a fan, but she went to the kitchen and baked it, brought it home.
01:52:24.200 Try this.
01:52:26.080 Okay.
01:52:26.820 Yeah, it's really...
01:52:27.800 And I was stunned.
01:52:29.380 It's really good.
01:52:30.400 Anyway, Kexi.com.
01:52:31.580 Yeah.
01:52:32.180 Very cool.
01:52:33.060 Highly recommended.
01:52:34.000 Something else happens today.
01:52:35.500 Yeah.
01:52:35.920 That's pretty momentous.
01:52:37.140 Really big thing going on today.
01:52:38.520 In fact, the new show in Rush Limbaugh's time slot here on Premier Radio Networks,
01:52:44.520 Clay and Buck, Clay Travis, Buck Sexton.
01:52:47.980 If you don't know these guys, you're going to get to know them.
01:52:50.240 And it's really important that you do because there's no one going to ever replace Rush Limbaugh.
01:52:56.380 It's not possible.
01:52:57.660 Not a thing that can be a thing.
01:52:59.420 Yeah.
01:53:00.040 But him and him unfortunately leaving us far too early creates a massive hole in the conservative movement.
01:53:13.200 I mean, Rush was the conservative movement in so many ways.
01:53:18.100 And I think you're really going to like Clay and Buck.
01:53:20.460 I know if you don't know Clay Travis, he's a guy who's been on the sports side for a long time.
01:53:26.300 And...
01:53:26.700 With the organization called Outkick.
01:53:28.260 Outkick.
01:53:28.620 He started that.
01:53:29.340 Yep.
01:53:29.580 And he does a lot.
01:53:31.100 He's been really prominent over the past couple of years.
01:53:34.240 And a guy who just will say what he feels is right and does not care.
01:53:38.040 And we need more of that.
01:53:39.620 Buck Sexton is the same way.
01:53:40.760 He was here at the Blaze and we're really proud of Buck and that he was here at the Blaze.
01:53:44.520 He went to Premiere Radio Networks to do the night show for several years.
01:53:47.940 And now it's moving into the slot with Clay in Rush's time slot.
01:53:52.500 So if you're listening to the network feed, it's the show that's about to start.
01:53:54.960 And I will say we need a great couple of voices in that time slot.
01:54:01.900 And these guys are really smart.
01:54:02.980 They do not care.
01:54:05.740 You know, Buck has been a friend of ours for a long time, you know, here at the Blaze from many years ago.
01:54:12.260 Clay, we've watched from afar, had him on the show a couple of times as well.
01:54:16.080 And he's a really good voice.
01:54:17.640 And I just think it's an incredible...
01:54:19.480 It's an incredible opportunity for these guys, but a real necessity for the conservative movement to have strong voices in the slot held by Rush Limbaugh.
01:54:28.460 And I know they know this as well.
01:54:31.200 You can't replace Rush.
01:54:32.740 But as they've been saying, inspired by Rush.
01:54:35.300 You know, this is going to be...
01:54:36.660 It's something really important for all of us if we care about conservative principles.
01:54:43.920 And today's the very first day, so you don't want to miss it.
01:54:47.400 It should be great.
01:54:49.040 Clay and Buck coming up next on most of this radio station.
01:54:53.780 I'm pretty excited about it.
01:54:54.920 It should be interesting to watch.
01:54:56.540 Have you watched...
01:54:57.720 Did you watch any of the sports, by the way, this weekend?
01:54:59.280 Did you watch...
01:55:00.280 The golf thing was interesting in that Jon Rahm, who was leading a tournament...
01:55:04.820 Oh, yeah, because he just had COVID, right?
01:55:06.000 He was leading a tournament and then found out he tested positive for COVID in a sport which he can play by himself outdoors.
01:55:14.300 Like, maybe, I don't know, clear the course and let him go by himself.
01:55:17.320 Whatever it is, you should have let him go.
01:55:18.760 Let him finish.
01:55:19.540 Yeah.
01:55:19.740 He wound up with two amazing putts late in the U.S. Open yesterday to win, which is sort of, you know, a little justice there for him.
01:55:28.420 I'm winning a much bigger tournament.
01:55:30.820 That was kind of nice to watch.
01:55:32.920 Every once in a while, you get a positive story.
01:55:35.120 Yeah.
01:55:35.300 And LeBron's out of the playoffs, so you get more than one positive story.
01:55:38.640 And in the first round, which was awesome.
