00:00:00.000
what you learned from the audience uh i learned there's a lot of drunks in this audience yeah
00:00:06.520
they are i mean you are ratings among the inebriated or formerly inebriated
00:00:12.300

00:01:44.060
welcome to the glenn beck program i can tell you why stew's in such a good mood today um you know
00:01:52.860
eagles broke another record yesterday and uh congratulations uh what record did they break
00:02:00.000
they uh they well they didn't exactly break a they allowed a record to be broken oh really what was it
00:02:07.500
that they had never lost to the jets in their franchise history yeah and then they finally did or
00:02:11.360
is it that they have the best record in the nfl which one first one okay the first one so they
00:02:16.980
beat them 12 out of 13 times but they did lose once in a i know i know embarrassing fashion but
00:02:23.340
still it was it was a it was a great record to be broken yeah you know i mean look fairness for
00:02:29.460
everybody you do you do and that's what that's must have i noticed must have been what they were
00:02:35.420
doing yesterday i i noticed that you're avoiding the real news today i am yes what is the real news
00:02:41.520
the real my gosh you're gonna play that the news from dr house father dr house father dr house father
00:02:51.560
real name dr zeke house father is this the team doctor of the new york jets no this is don't play
00:03:01.060
this game with me stew i'm you're starting to piss me off now dr house father as you clearly know
00:03:06.040
is the climate research lead at the payments company stripe stripe meaning the place that like
00:03:24.300
you swipe credit cards and they yeah they process they process credit card payments yes they've got why
00:03:30.260
they have a climate lead because when you can get somebody like dr house father on your staff
00:03:36.960
you just square you go you go who's the climate lead of uh square they'll pledge please don't play
00:03:44.860
that game with me like we don't know uh dr house father uh he is also the research scientist at the
00:03:51.720
independent erkeley uh berkeley earth uh or erkley birth or erkley birth right okay yeah
00:04:00.220
uh it's an organization that analyzes uh environmental data of course very independent
00:04:06.120
right i'm sure so independent here's what dr house father has said okay staggering i'm quoting
00:04:13.580
unnerving mind-boggling absolutely gobsmackingly bananas which i want the t-shirt i want the t-shirt
00:04:22.960
absolutely gobsmackingly bananas i yeah i want to say that in my daily life all the time he has said
00:04:30.820
global temperatures have shattered records and reached dangerous new highs over and over in the
00:04:37.700
last few months really yes and he and his fellow climate scientists at stripe have the place like and
00:04:48.160
just to be clear this isn't like visa or mastercard climate scientists these are the ones that process
00:04:54.460
the payments of visa and mastercard yeah yeah they're their climate science team yes okay okay
00:05:00.520
uh-huh so they said he said i've run out of adjectives uh adjectives to describe what they have
00:05:07.440
seen that's not true he had gobsmackingly bananas which is fantastic which is a great now data from
00:05:13.400
berkeley earth released on wednesday shows that september was an an astounding 0.5 degree celsius
00:05:23.580
almost a full degree fahrenheit hotter than the prior record and july and august were 0.3 degrees celsius
00:05:32.580
0.5 degrees fahrenheit hotter i mean can you yeah why why even continue civilization with a 0.3 degree
00:05:40.060
temperature rise i mean i don't even think it happened three months in a row three months in a
00:05:44.300
row okay uh-huh he says that now the stripe people i shouldn't say that like that the client the the
00:05:53.220
climate researchers at stripe said that 2023 is almost certain to be the hottest year since reliable
00:06:02.340
global records began in the mid-1800s wow so they were very reliable back then very reliable in the
00:06:09.680
mid-1800s if you go back to the mid-1800s people just nailed science all the time he said had a
00:06:14.100
problem well he said you know 18 1850s you know that's when we started keeping reliable but he thinks
00:06:20.720
it's the hottest it's probably been in the last 2000 years and maybe well before that that is
00:06:30.120
gobsmackingly bananas yeah now some people will say oh el nino yes that is one thing that i would say
00:06:37.180
yeah well first of all you're in america speak american now the baby has nothing to do with it
00:06:44.880
okay okay uh yes it's playing some role but the global temperatures that they've experienced
00:06:51.620
this year alone at stripe he said could not could not have occurred without the approximately
00:06:58.440
1.3 degrees celsius that's two and a half degrees fahrenheit of warning of warming to date now he
00:07:08.080
says this is coming from human sources like carbon dioxide and other greenhouse admissions so in
00:07:15.200
between processing the payment for my burrito at chipotle they decided to figure this all out
00:07:21.040
because that's impressive but you don't understand both of those things he has also figured out that
00:07:25.820
now there's increasing evidence because of the last three months that global warming has
00:07:31.780
accelerated over the last 15 years rather than at a gradual steady pace that's fascinating because
00:07:38.280
it's warming at a lower pace than all of their projections going back years and years and years
00:07:44.860
not true according to stripe and according to the payment processing company yeah they said it's not true
00:07:52.440
that's well it's an interesting thing because you have all the graphs back in the day i don't know
00:07:57.240
if they still do this because this has not worked out well for them yeah but they used to make long-term
00:08:00.720
projections based on what they thought was going to happen sure and uh what we found out is
00:08:05.180
what actually occurred with carbon emissions were higher than their highest estimates so there was
00:08:11.960
more carbon poured into the atmosphere than their highest estimates and then the warming
00:08:16.360
was lower than their lowest estimates so to me that seems like utter and complete and catastrophic and
00:08:25.540
gobsmackingly bananas failure he said but no there has been an acceleration over the past few decades in
00:08:33.320
total heat content of the earth's oceans where 90 percent of the energy is trapped trapped trapped our energy
00:08:41.720
has been trapped it's like held hostage by the oceans do they have a panic room do the oceans have
00:08:48.000
have panic rooms i don't i don't know then he has satellite measurements of earth's energy imbalance
00:08:54.840
it needs a chakra balancing oh really bring in al gore this is what you bring in al gore for the chakra
00:09:01.980
balance the difference between energy entering the atmosphere from the sun and the amount of heat
00:09:07.720
leaving shows a strong increase in the amount of heat again trapped over the past two decades
00:09:14.720
for for 20 years it's been trapped screaming to get out if earth's energy imbalance is increasing over
00:09:24.460
time it should drive an increase in the world's rate of warming he says there's a number of factors
00:09:30.840
driving the acceleration of warming now you need to hear this i need to hear the factors here the world
00:09:35.820
has made real progress in slowing down the growth of carbon dioxide this according to stripe
00:09:41.280
and other greenhouse gases however however for decades the air pollution from sulfur dioxide and other
00:09:50.960
hazardous substance in fossil fuels has had a strong temporary cooling effect on our climate but as countries
00:10:00.540
around the world hmm go ahead please finish as countries around the world have begun to clean
00:10:07.000
up the air uh-oh the cooling effect provided by aerosols oh that's what i thought you were getting to
00:10:14.640
has fallen by around 30 since 2000 so they told us yes to stop using aerosols right because it was
00:10:22.480
good for the environment and now they're saying the problem with the environment is that we've stopped
00:10:27.080
using aerosols aerosols aerosols have fallen surprising drastically in the past three years
00:10:33.120
um because we're phasing all of them out the reductions in that pollution on top of the
00:10:40.580
continued increase in the atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations mean that we're encountering some
00:10:46.300
of the unvarnished force of climate change for the first time varnished force of wow because we have
00:10:53.080
now stopped using aerosol which actually cooled the earth now we're seeing unprecedented growth
00:11:03.200
well you know i think i think dr head feather has won won me over house father i'm sorry house father
00:11:10.440
has won me over and you know what i think it's time to make some changes glenn you know you think about
00:11:16.640
what is really affecting this climate is these carbon emissions and a lot of that is by fossil fuel
00:11:21.660
and a big portion of that and probably the biggest portion of that is this you know industrial greed
00:11:28.540
where these companies are mining for all sorts of natural resources they're putting them into products
00:11:34.700
shipping them all over the world finally the truth and now they're making being made so easy to purchase
00:11:42.000
by these processing companies who come out here and they just make it so easy for these evil capitalists
00:11:48.760
to screw up the earth we should shut down every payment processing company to save the globe
00:11:54.880
because how are you possibly helping things if what you're doing is making capitalism easier for
00:12:01.920
people to participate in shut stripe down today that's not the here's his conclusion i don't know
00:12:08.700
where you got that oh that's different he says it's clear that we can control how warm the planet
00:12:13.180
gets over the coming decades now oh it's clear we can do that he found no he found the thermostat he
00:12:18.940
found the thermostat wow i thought there was climate models have consistently found the same ones that
00:12:24.500
said it was going to be warmer than it is now and the same ones that mispredicted how much carbon
00:12:28.120
would go in the atmosphere hostility consistently found that once we get emissions down to net zero
00:12:34.140
oh that should be easy wait wait wait wait soon as we get emissions down to net zero the world will
00:12:45.000
largely okay stop warming we've got some qualifiers in there we do all we have to do is completely wipe
00:12:54.860
out all industry industry all industrial movements uh-huh get rid of cars get rid of coal and i don't
00:13:04.340
mean get rid of cars like you know it i mean get rid of the electric cars because there's not enough
00:13:09.800
electricity produced to be able to plug in just california's cars oh okay that's it yeah so he says
00:13:18.580
so the world will not cool back down for many centuries once it's hot it's hot even if we're at net zero
00:13:28.200
unless unless the world powers join in in major efforts to remove more carbon dioxide from the
00:13:40.080
atmosphere than we add got it right so we we not only have to go to
00:13:48.540
net zero we then have to remove even more carbon dioxide which i think if i think if america just
00:13:59.660
holds its breath for like 10 years yeah nobody breathes out you can breathe in no breathing out
00:14:06.340
as long as we don't breathe out for about 10 years maybe maybe then america has done enough you know
00:14:13.360
what i think you're right and and we should highlight some success stories on this for example can i give
00:14:18.360
you one success story sure a huge success story yeah just one nation the nation of china that has
00:14:24.620
been leading the fight against climate change as al gore uh said in his movie and in speeches
00:14:29.920
joe biden says it too yeah yeah sure um china today generates enough power from clean sources
00:14:35.620
to power germany six times over that's up from only two times a decade ago in a few years china's clean
00:14:43.980
power generation will be equal to u.s's total electricity consumption i mean what a win
00:14:49.900
right that's incredible huge the clean energy i didn't realize they were that big win they're
00:14:54.100
really pumping out the solar panels sure solar generation and wind uh generation alone is about
00:14:59.140
to hit three times germany's total electricity consumption next year wow if china's power demand
00:15:03.820
had stayed at the 2009 level the massive increase in co2 free power generation would have made the grid
00:15:10.820
80 percent clean wow that's incredible that's nuts but wait a minute they sound like they might be using
00:15:17.940
a little more energy than they were yeah yeah the problem of course was that electricity demand
00:15:24.620
doubled and power clean power generation didn't keep up so the difference was delivered from coal and
00:15:33.140
overall co2 emissions went up by 90 percent but it's a huge win a huge win here we go thank you dr
00:15:42.000
brown feather for our father this is the best of the glenbeck program hello cody in virginia
00:15:50.100

00:16:53.120
just trying to get my life back on track and i'm just having to lay everything out on the table and
00:16:58.160
take inventory myself and everything that's going on and it's it's a lot it sucks doesn't it well it's a
00:17:06.260

00:17:18.580
somebody who has done this before um do it right be thorough uh and it's hard it sucks and you're just
00:17:29.360
i mean you just get it sometimes you'll just get beaten down by it don't just remember it is worth
00:17:36.660
it it is so worth it your life is going to become so much better when you get rid of all of that
00:17:43.940
garbage and it is it's hard and i don't mean just the garbage of drinking or smoking or whatever
00:17:48.400
i mean getting rid of the things that were pushing you in that direction face them head on it was
00:17:55.480
it's scary i know but you're going to discover some great things about you you're so right and
00:18:02.580
it's it's literally transpired into my life to where trash is actually piling up and you know basic
00:18:09.340
chores and and just functioning as a as a productive member of society has just uh i don't know it's it's
00:18:18.100
become like i've been mentally disabled and you know just trying to get on track before it's too late
00:18:23.900
you know because i don't want to lose everything that i have i've worked hard i've worked hard for
00:18:28.680
what i have good for you and i'm thankful for everything and thank you you bet make sure you
00:18:34.320
reach out i want to hear from you a year from now you know i want to hear how your life is going
00:18:38.320
yes sir i will thank you god bless uh i have to tell you that is you know what's really scary is most
00:18:45.420
people because i was this way you hang on to the things that you think you are you hang on to
00:18:54.940
um your struggles and your problems and the blame that you have given yourself or others have given
00:19:03.340
you or you've put on somebody else because it is a it's a defense mechanism that happens and when you
00:19:12.040
start to really you know recover and you have to take that inventory of yourself and deal with all
00:19:20.520
the things and then hopefully that leads to dealing with all the things you think you know you thought
00:19:25.700
you knew was true and it's scary when you take all of that stuff out because you feel like at least i did
00:19:32.760
i felt like maybe there's not anybody in there maybe this is as good as it gets i don't i mean i'm a
00:19:41.500
i've been hiding all of this because i don't think there's anything good in me and that is a
00:19:48.360
frightening terrifying feeling and i will tell you i felt that way for a long time and it stopped me
00:19:57.520
from really going because you'd hang on to things you'd be like no i want to hang on to this one
00:20:02.420
because it gave you an excuse but when you get rid of all of that stuff you begin to discover things
00:20:09.520
about yourself that you didn't know that are really really good really good uh let me go to
00:20:17.820
matt south carolina hi matt yeah hey glenn uh uh i got a serious question for you but i also have
00:20:26.200
kind of a funny statement uh my last name is uh franzese and uh when you had michael franzese on
00:20:32.720
uh you're pronouncing his last name wrong and i don't know if you realize that but i always do
00:20:37.900
funny i oh i always do it was funny we're not related uh my family's not related but
00:20:44.820
it's a mob guy and you're and you're saying his name wrong
00:20:47.760
well thank you for that it might be terrifying if the mob existed which it doesn't it does it does
00:20:55.300
not exist i'd be a big fan oh yeah yeah i'm a big fan of the mod if it existed but it doesn't
00:21:00.220
exist we know that go ahead so anyway uh i got my brother listed in upstate new york too he's up
00:21:06.120
in corning um but my serious question is is i've been i live in south carolina we've seen all these
00:21:12.780
things my friends and hearing all this stuff on the internet and things about these the southern
00:21:18.040
border and these middle-aged men or military-aged men coming across and and i'm hearing and seeing
00:21:23.480
stories and and things about you know them being put up in cities around america at the roosevelt
00:21:29.200
hotel a lot of them have these un cards that have money on them it's just i just want to see what
00:21:35.560
your take is on that and see what is there anybody looking into local uh police forces hopefully in
00:21:41.580
these cities you know like are they anyone paying attention i mean they're just gathering and yeah
00:21:49.720
are there people uh paying attention to that yeah people like you people like me people who are
00:21:56.460
paying attention and are concerned uh are there police that are looking into it i don't know if
00:22:03.040
they're looking into it but i'm sure they're aware of it in the cities where they're allowed to be aware
00:22:08.460
of things like that um and every every american every city should be concerned we've talked about it for a
00:22:14.760
long time that the un is helping on the other side of the border process people getting them ready
00:22:21.200
so they can come in and just have easy access to america you have ngos some of them funded by
00:22:28.040
people like soros uh that are doing the same thing helping moving people you know doing caravans all of
00:22:36.080
these things uh and their their goal is uh is not a stronger america there was a um let me see here
00:22:45.740
where is it here here's a listen to this one here's a biden's spokesperson john kirby uh just
00:22:53.500
this weekend listen to this cut 10 let me ask you about the southern border because obviously the
00:23:00.500
chaos there the openness you can argue about that but i mean record numbers of people showing up there
00:23:05.940
record numbers of people who are either on a terror list or associated with somebody who is a family
00:23:10.020
member and associate we're at record numbers for those how worried are you as somebody who is
00:23:15.660
your job is national security that we have an issue there with somebody who would be a bad actor a
00:23:20.100
copycat or a terrorist cell we're we're concerned about the potential spillover from the war against
00:23:25.940
hamas in terms of domestic security that's why days ago i mean within a day or two of the attacks the
00:23:32.000
president ordered the team the national security team and the department of homeland security to work
00:23:36.580
with state and local authorities to make sure that we have the intel picture in place to be able to
00:23:40.780
identify and potentially disrupt any domestic terror threat as a result of uh of what's going on
00:23:46.020
against hamas and i will tell you that even as we were speaking here this morning we simply don't
00:23:50.560
have any specific credible threat to speak to but that doesn't mean we're not looking very very hard
00:23:54.680
stop it really sincerely stop it so even just a few days ago we reached out to local authorities
00:24:04.460
make sure you have information on all those people that are coming in you just you make sure you really
00:24:10.720
you mean the what is it now how many millions have come across the border how many millions have we just
00:24:19.680
lost you know there was a report out this week i'll find it during the break there's a report out uh this
00:24:27.140
last weekend about the number of people that came in from iran that we caught just this week
00:24:34.500
iran coming across the board that's a that's a long walk from iran a really long walk why why why were
00:24:42.780
they coming over because i'll bet you if you're a persecuted person in iran and you get out you could show
00:24:49.980
up at our embassy someplace and i'll i'll bet you you could be fast-tracked why are they coming across the
00:24:56.920
border and this has been happening now for two and a half years so i appreciate what you've done john
00:25:03.020
in the last couple of days after the attack but i think americans would like to know you know who's
00:25:12.160
here and maybe you should uh solve that by first closing and securing the border are you with me on
00:25:19.460
this glenn uh over the past week or two john kirby starting to rise to the level of annoyance of like
00:25:26.440
a kjp for me like he's starting to get to that like upper echelon hall of fame level of just i can't
00:25:34.400
stand hearing a word out of his mouth because he's so annoying about everything he's at he's rising to
00:25:40.140
that level for me he's to me he is becoming baghdad bob yeah yeah yeah yeah you know i mean if if you're
00:25:48.220
old enough to remember who baghdad bob was was that the first war or the second that was the 2003
00:25:54.660
okay 2003 and he was a guy who's like look there's caves terror what oh no saddam hussein he's a great
00:26:05.040
guy rape his two sons what oh but it was also like the tanks are we have video uh video footage of
00:26:13.440
tanks 10 miles outside of baghdad and he's like they're not even in the country we've already
00:26:17.720
defeated them like it was that type of denial so bad which is hilarious and also very reminiscent of
00:26:23.020
what we're hearing now from people in the middle east are basically claiming none of these atrocities
00:26:27.440
occurred right and hearing in other uh areas here in the united states from our own people
00:26:34.640
what the border's secure what there's nobody coming what that's crazy talk but that's a conspiracy there
00:26:41.460
yes what it's baghdad bob we are we are at the point where i never thought america would be
00:26:48.780
and the one responsible for that is the one that is currently killing themselves and that is the
00:26:55.180
mainstream media you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program we have jeff in arizona hello
00:27:01.560
jeff welcome to the glenn beck program hey glenn thanks for taking my call i want to warn you you
00:27:06.540
thought tony had a big question for you i got a big one oh my they're gonna have to fire up those brain
00:27:11.120
cells here on monday morning all right so this addresses uh this addresses even the issue you were
00:27:16.780
discussing earlier about the u.s bonds and the interest on the u.s bonds and this is a suggestion
00:27:22.060
that would help save the u.s dollar from complete collapse and deal with our debt and that suggestion
00:27:27.740
is this we simply stop paying the interest on that portion a portion of the u.s debt and that portion is
00:27:36.660
the portion that's held by china now of course that is the dropping of a nuclear bomb in a financial
00:27:44.940
kind of war and there's a lot of discussion about financial war and also people might say well my
00:27:50.200
gosh you're going to destroy the u.s treasury bonds and so on no you give assurances to the rest of the
00:27:56.060
world that we are going to pay the interest on all of their bond debt held by all their sovereign
00:28:01.760
nations and why do you do this and what's the justification we all remember in the late 80s and
00:28:07.800
the late 90s financial war was waged against south africa because of their apartheid regime
00:28:12.720
we simply declare china a pariah state they are simply using slavery they they have active slavery
00:28:21.520
they use slavery in their economy they're an aggressive colonizer through force we've had
00:28:28.000
hippies complaining for decades about what happened in tibet they're doing that in nepal they're trying
00:28:33.660
to do in nepal exactly what russia is doing in ukraine just simply trying to take their land claiming
00:28:38.340
oh a bunch of these people are ethnic chinese so and one last thing to give you while you're you're
00:28:43.800
preparing a response to that idea i've reviewed this idea with significant conservative economists
00:28:49.620
including katherine austin fits and katherine austin fits actually agrees so even if you think that's a
00:28:55.240
great idea i think you should discuss it with carol at some point but it is a significant idea
00:28:59.240
just stop paying interest to china okay uh let me start here again cold start on this um you said what
00:29:11.160
what they're doing in nepal just taking land russia's doing that right you said so they're doing the same
00:29:18.740
thing as russia yeah it's like an aggressive colonization where they just simply claim that
00:29:24.840
they're not taking the land yet but they're simply trying to claim that oh we got a bunch of ethnic
00:29:29.000
chinese here we have a right to control your country right which russia is trying to do i'm just trying
00:29:34.540
to find the boundary here because this is what we did with swift and that is giving us a a bricks
00:29:42.200
organization that is going to challenge the dollar uh soon and they're replace replacing the swift
00:29:49.960
something that america thought could never be done the swift payment uh uh system which you know
00:29:56.480
it does almost all the payments uh internationally globally all over the world uh at least it did now
00:30:04.200
it's now you know now it's going to be replaced in some nations because we took that away from russia
00:30:11.400
and others immediately said well if they can do that there what happens if they get up on the wrong side
00:30:17.720
of the bed and they think that you know they can do it to us as well and they were all many of them
00:30:22.680
not all of them many of them were nations that you know we're not real positive about um but if you say
00:30:29.880
you're not going to pay the interest a couple of things happen you've broken a contract we when we got
00:30:37.360
into what new information do we have about china slaves we knew that going in that to me if if i were
00:30:46.800
somebody going to a bank and i said you know what i just found out that you were you know holding the
00:30:57.060
money and maybe involved with the jeffrey epstein thing so i'm not paying my interest to you you know
00:31:04.040
where i'd be homeless that's where i would be uh and you can't just break these contracts you just
00:31:12.720
cannot break a contract like that now if we're at war then maybe we do that but this would be an act
00:31:20.940
of war what you're sort of making my argument for me glenn because the truth of the matter is is fine
00:31:28.320
that's what those shots across the bow are with bricks these are shots across the bow of financial
00:31:33.340
war and we have a dollar that is about to go to zero and if we don't do something that's what's
00:31:39.720
going to happen and there is a realistic okay so i i don't want to basis for what i've said okay hang
00:31:45.280
on just a second hang on just a second i don't want to get into an argument with you but i do want
00:31:48.660
to push back uh a bit um the first thing if you want to save the dollar the first thing you do is
00:31:57.140
clean your own house up first before you say i'm going to declare war on china you would say i'm going
00:32:04.520
to declare war on uh maybe we we don't pay the salaries of everybody in congress and in washington
00:32:12.800
because they're the ones that are tubing this this and the federal reserve why would i go outside of
00:32:20.260
my own borders first and cause a war with russia when really i should clean out my own house first
00:32:27.140
agree with you on those points i do okay but you know china's coming after us
00:32:34.680
so is the federal reserve shots across the bow now i agree this would be the dropping of a
00:32:39.880
nuclear bomb in financial war this would be this would be a full-on financial war against china
00:32:45.340
clearly but the question becomes are we headed that way oh yes yes we are but i don't i i look
00:32:54.580
they invade taiwan i would consider it they you know uh they get into war with us i would absolutely
00:33:03.240
do it however uh i i don't really want to be the one that drops the nuclear bomb uh on china because i
00:33:10.820
don't think the rest of the world would believe us and the fastest thing we can do is get everybody
00:33:16.940
dumping our uh treasuries that they do hold then our dollar is over immediately and china
00:33:24.560
would convince half the world to do just that thanks for your call jeff seems to that we should
00:33:29.780
be there are differences and and just not paying i mean full faith and credit is a big deal and it
00:33:34.840
would really rock the world economy and ours really badly but taking steps to the direction of being
00:33:41.260
less economically tied to china uh is i think the right way to move i think you saw some of that with
00:33:47.420
in the trump administration yes but you can't really do that um at the with the spending that
00:33:55.880
we've had even if trump you know trump is not a debt guy he doesn't but he's not bothered by debt i am
00:34:02.080
but i buy into his theory to some degree and that is look you you cut your spending when you're at full
00:34:11.200
earning power well we're not even at full earning power if we get rid of all of these things we can
00:34:15.920
create businesses we can pay these bills and he's right however i'm not comfortable because it seems
00:34:23.180
that only happens when we have certain people in um and we just keep growing this debt the first things
00:34:30.680
that you you need to do is stop the accumulation of debt i just don't you cannot clean out your you
00:34:41.820
cannot clean out somebody else's house it's like after you know in 2008 right before the crash our
00:34:48.360
financial heads of all of our banks went over and lectured china on how you really need to run you
00:34:54.820
know look we have all the credibility we know how to run you know the banking sector and loans and
00:34:59.760
everything else and we crashed what an embarrassment they laughed at us when we were there because they
00:35:06.220
saw what was coming yeah i will also say if we're going to do this with china which i think is the
00:35:12.460
right thing to do one get away from china get away from yeah not not his policy yeah yeah i appreciate
00:35:18.500
the uh sentiment yes but i mean and if there's war yes maybe maybe yeah i mean i don't know but moving
00:35:24.660
away from from our economic ties with china is something that we should be pursuing however and this is
00:35:32.320
something that you know we were talking about with the house race you don't just do something
00:35:36.700
right you do something with a plan for what's going to replace it and you better have a replacement for
00:35:43.720
china because our entire way of life changes if we just cut them out completely right now everything
00:35:48.260
changes might i suggest a replacement for china uh india india is a a country that has much some
00:35:56.900
familiarity some friendliness to western values they at least they loved us when trump wasn't
00:36:02.180
office i mean they were like i mean right they loved us there you have a a large population a real
00:36:08.380
manufacturing base we should be doing everything we can to encourage india to be moving the the
00:36:14.680
right way for western values as much as we can control that with yes with carrots and then also
00:36:20.580
you know encouraging companies to do business with companies with countries like india that can
00:36:27.360
actually give us a lot of the stuff that we're getting from china but also in a way that makes a
00:36:31.880
heck of a lot more sense and obviously american manufacturing is another big part of this
00:36:35.300
increasing that and everything else but you're never going to replace china with american
00:36:38.720
manufacturing completely some companies will be able to do it certain products you can help on
00:36:43.000
certain things for defense purposes you should bring in internally more often but when you're
00:36:47.700
talking about wide-scale economic pursuits you got a country that's got over a billion people
00:36:54.160
and they don't hate america you know like embracing them and helping them through their troubles is
00:37:01.240
probably something we should be focusing on a little bit more uh quickly let me go to diane in
00:37:05.580
california hi diane good morning glenn happy monday thank you i have i have a question without the
00:37:12.540
that the normal argument that we're here that oh my god we'll never win another election but why
00:37:19.360
what is it going to take to get the majority of the republican party the 80 million people who voted
00:37:25.800
for donald trump to leave this party and become independents why hasn't donald trump become an
00:37:31.280
independent we've allowed rfk to take over that aspect of the three-party system now it's another
00:37:37.520
democrat regardless of you know all the nice things he says that people think are great which he is and
00:37:43.000
he's a democrat um what is it going to take to leave these rhinos and um never trumpers and people
00:37:52.180
that are feckless and refuse to fight for what we the people want like we want jim jordan every poll
00:37:59.280
says that yet they're fighting us what do we do to make that third party the strongest party of all three
00:38:09.300
well i'm going to say something really unpopular the last thing you do is start a third party
00:38:15.540
three or four months or six months before this election uh do not vote for rfk do not he is not
00:38:27.200
uh a constitutionalist he is a constitutionalist when he likes it um when he thinks he can fool people
00:38:36.280
who care about the constitution yeah he is really a dangerous candidate so don't do anything uh this
00:38:42.740
time but i will tell you i i think you know when you've got a four-year ramp up donald trump would
00:38:49.560
have been would have been smart i think uh if you can get enough uh democrats or sorry enough republicans
00:38:57.680
to leave um but it can't be about a person it has to be about an idea it has to be bigger than the
00:39:05.820
person involved donald trump doesn't need a third party he's winning by 40 points yeah right like
00:39:11.080
and you know again remember trump supported aggressively mccarthy right like i so i don't
00:39:17.180
i i understand that there's certainly different differences between rhinos and donald trump a lot
00:39:21.980
of them but i mean this was his pick he he harangued people on the house floor to vote for mccarthy
00:39:29.440
that was his pick and so now he's supporting jordan i think jordan would be an improvement over
00:39:34.360
mccarthy huge um but trump is you know huge um i know first of all trump it's hard to do it
00:39:40.840
with a third party which is one of the reasons why people continually fail at it even when they have
00:39:46.060
really high polls you know and there's a reason why trump goes to the republican party because that's
00:39:51.080
where he he can win and the structure is already built correct but that was at a time in 2016 where
00:39:57.800
we got to take over the republicans those mcconnells and the dirty ones they're never going to get out
00:40:05.220
they're never going to get out they are going to continue to try to do everything they can for their
00:40:11.240
little rhinoville uh i i am one that would love to see the big not before an election but the big uh
00:40:21.620
players in washington and i'd love it if you had a really really conservative republican i mean
00:40:27.580
democrat but i can't find one but people that would say i'm leaving i'm not playing this game anymore
00:40:33.260
because i think the republicans are so rotted from the inside a lot of people would follow and get out
00:40:40.500
and it needs to happen you've seen some of this i mean people have gone become independent even if
00:40:46.320
they're just voting for republicans still becoming an independent voter sends a message
00:41:16.420
nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nahaaah
00:41:18.780
nah nah nah nah nah nah lah nah 3 nah nah nah naha Nah nah nah nah nah nahahaaaaah
