Transcript

00:00:00.000 I think today was the most intense I've ever heard our audience.
00:00:08.000 Would you agree with that?
00:00:09.460 As far as, as far as, on a myriad of subjects.
00:00:12.920 I've heard them intense on, you know, this or that.
00:00:16.320 But there were like six or seven times.
00:00:19.040 We are all at the end of our ropes, it feels like, at the same time.
00:00:23.220 And I think the audience reflected that today.
00:00:25.200 And it's nice that it wasn't at the end of their rope on, you know, on, we can't do anything.
00:00:33.440 They were in their rope saying, this is happening in my community.
00:00:37.660 I'm trying to stop it.
00:00:39.220 I need other people to help stop it.
00:00:41.620 They're aware of things.
00:00:43.580 There were no questions on, at least I didn't think.
00:00:48.180 I don't understand X, Y, and Z.
00:00:51.740 The calls that came in today were people that understood the problem, may not know how to fix it, but they understood the problem.
00:00:57.600 They're watching these things.
00:00:59.180 Yeah.
00:00:59.420 It says something about the state of affairs right now.
00:01:01.400 It does.
00:01:01.980 And it's, it's, it's good in some ways that people are up on this stuff.
00:01:06.440 But man, it's, it's a scary time.
00:01:08.080 So if you are a hawk, today is a podcast you might want to skip.
00:01:13.360 Because I don't think so.
00:01:14.700 I think, I think it's good to be pushed.
00:01:16.680 You know, I, I was reading an op-ed this weekend from a very big hawk, more hawkish than I am, certainly.
00:01:22.380 And I mean, I like to read other perspectives.
00:01:24.840 I think we saw some of this from the callers today.
00:01:27.140 Like the Ukraine thing in particular is difficult for people not to see what they oppose, but to see what they're for.
00:01:33.340 And we tried to explore that today.
00:01:35.000 Yeah.
00:01:35.460 That's a good way of putting it.
00:01:36.660 So, we talk a lot about what's happening in Ukraine and the money we're sending over there.
00:01:41.260 And Joe Biden just popping up in the Ukraine today, which was, oh, so, but such a blessing.
00:01:47.120 Maybe he can make it to Ohio at some point.
00:01:50.140 By the way, subscribe to the podcast, this one, and Stu Does America, both available every day,
00:01:54.340 as well as heading over to the YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Glenn Beck, youtube.com slash Stu Does America.
00:02:00.260 Subscribe, rate, and review.
00:02:02.280 Here's today's podcast.
00:02:03.240 Okay, so the president is over now, and he's in Ukraine, and wow, we are going to be there indefinitely, it seems.
00:02:32.140 Here is President Biden about the money going to Ukraine.
00:02:37.600 Cut 11, please.
00:02:39.160 And to deliver much-needed humanitarian assistance as well as food, water, medicine, shelter,
00:02:45.060 and other aid to Ukrainians displaced by Russia's war,
00:02:48.220 and provide aid for those seeking refuge in other countries from Ukraine.
00:02:53.520 It's also going to help schools and hospitals open.
00:02:56.000 It's going to allow pensions and social support to be paid to the Ukrainian people,
00:03:00.380 so they have something, something in their pocket.
00:03:02.900 Wait, wait, what?
00:03:03.440 It's also going to provide critical resources to address food shortages around the globe.
00:03:07.700 Okay, so wait, so wait, so wait, so wait, so wait, so we're sending, what, money for food shortages all around the world,
00:03:16.840 all around the world.
00:03:18.040 We're also paying Ukraine's pensions?
00:03:21.560 Social Security is on the ropes here, and we're now paying the Ukrainian pension fund.
00:03:31.240 Did you approve this?
00:03:32.720 Because I didn't.
00:03:33.960 Have we even discussed this?
00:03:36.200 This is the first time I've heard it.
00:03:37.920 That's my money and your money, our country, our children's lives at stake here.
00:03:44.600 And nobody seems to be talking about it at all.
00:03:47.440 It doesn't matter.
00:03:48.400 When you listen to what they said over the weekend,
00:03:51.500 this is the foreign minister from Ukraine.
00:03:56.160 What is victory?
00:03:58.060 Cut one.
00:04:01.360 But for us, there is a short notion of victory,
00:04:07.620 and that's full restoration of Ukraine's territorial integrity.
00:04:11.980 Okay, not going to happen because of Crimea.
00:04:14.700 And there is a long victory, which includes compensations for the damage inflicted,
00:04:18.880 accountability for operators of crimes,
00:04:22.460 and most importantly, Russia must change.
00:04:28.520 Okay, may I just say,
00:04:30.860 we are repeating to the letter World War I.
00:04:35.360 The elites, the Fabian socialists,
00:04:38.580 got together with all of the big socialists in the West,
00:04:43.860 and they all got together and said,
00:04:45.600 you know, if we kind of push this along,
00:04:48.200 it'll be a quick war,
00:04:49.860 and we'll be able to collapse all of the old regimes,
00:04:54.640 and we'll be great,
00:04:58.180 and we'll have this new utopian world.
00:05:01.040 So what happened?
00:05:01.840 Well, it wasn't quick.
00:05:04.060 It killed millions,
00:05:05.360 changed the history of Europe.
00:05:08.540 It did collapse some of the old empires,
00:05:12.240 if that's what you were excited about,
00:05:14.520 but at what cost?
00:05:15.780 And then at the end,
00:05:17.100 what did they do?
00:05:19.140 The same people who started the war
00:05:21.500 got together and said,
00:05:23.020 now we're going to punish Germany,
00:05:24.620 and we're going to make them pay,
00:05:26.620 and we want all the land that they claim is theirs.
00:05:31.840 And we're going to take it.
00:05:33.700 And they're going to pay us.
00:05:35.980 And what did that do?
00:05:37.440 Set up World War II.
00:05:39.100 We're doing the same thing.
00:05:43.400 Exactly the same thing.
00:05:46.340 And the people were not for the war.
00:05:49.340 In fact, they elected a president who said,
00:05:52.380 if you elect me for a second term,
00:05:54.620 I will not send your boys into war.
00:05:57.800 And what did he do?
00:05:59.740 He waited a full three, six months?
00:06:02.460 What was it, Stu?
00:06:03.280 Do you remember?
00:06:04.120 Before Woodrow Wilson sent all our boys to war.
00:06:09.400 We have got to wake up.
00:06:12.680 By the way, Lindsey Graham,
00:06:14.880 he's now saying that we have to send fighters.
00:06:17.260 We've got to send the jets.
00:06:18.480 We have to send the jets.
00:06:20.180 Really?
00:06:20.920 Because Putin has just said,
00:06:23.220 that's our final straw.
00:06:25.040 If you put Western jets in Ukraine,
00:06:30.820 that is the final straw.
00:06:34.300 Because you don't need jets to defend Ukraine.
00:06:37.540 You need jets to fly into Russia
00:06:39.940 and hit targets in Russia.
00:06:41.420 Which I can understand why they'd want to do that
00:06:43.080 to win a war.
00:06:44.320 But I can also understand how,
00:06:46.720 I don't know, if you're Russia,
00:06:48.440 you're going to see that as a big problem.
00:06:50.540 And this is one of the biggest issues with this, Glenn.
00:06:52.360 And I don't see how this escalation stops.
00:06:54.720 Is that both sides have arguments
00:06:56.880 that you could see from their perspective,
00:06:59.160 they're not going to want to give up on.
00:07:00.440 You mentioned Crimea is not going to happen.
00:07:02.140 But if you were Ukraine,
00:07:04.240 if you're a Ukrainian citizen,
00:07:05.700 you're like, well, wait a minute.
00:07:06.740 They just took that.
00:07:08.220 What do you mean it's not going to happen?
00:07:09.620 It is going to happen.
00:07:10.640 We're going to go in there and get it.
00:07:11.880 And there's going to be this constant push
00:07:13.620 to be able to hold those lines.
00:07:15.980 Then they can have their constant push.
00:07:18.460 I'm not involved in their constant push.
00:07:21.280 But that's not what,
00:07:22.340 I mean, unfortunately, you're not,
00:07:23.460 well, actually, fortunately,
00:07:24.580 you're not president.
00:07:25.220 But unfortunately,
00:07:26.340 someone better than the current president
00:07:27.700 is not president.
00:07:29.120 Because he's currently doing that
00:07:32.080 with no seemingly,
00:07:33.880 no limiting principle whatsoever.
00:07:35.740 He keeps putting down these lines of like,
00:07:37.640 well, we're not going to send jets,
00:07:38.780 we're not going to send tanks,
00:07:40.140 and we're not going to send missiles.
00:07:41.160 All these things have happened
00:07:43.200 with the exception of planes.
00:07:44.420 And now we have Republicans saying
00:07:45.740 we should be sending the planes.
00:07:47.600 So at what point does Biden fold on that?
00:07:51.400 Well, I don't know.
00:07:53.380 Because during this global security conference
00:07:57.960 in Munich,
00:07:59.540 the Chinese are talking now
00:08:04.340 about giving weapons and ammunition to Russia.
00:08:06.840 And the United States came out over the weekend
00:08:11.140 and said,
00:08:12.380 they better not do that.
00:08:15.600 Excuse me?
00:08:17.380 You better not do that.
00:08:19.960 That is a line for us.
00:08:23.240 Wait a minute.
00:08:24.360 Wait a minute.
00:08:25.680 Not only are we sending over tanks,
00:08:29.720 missiles, bullets, guns,
00:08:32.260 we're now paying for their social security.
00:08:36.840 We're, I mean,
00:08:38.520 we are the Ukrainian government.
00:08:42.600 We're over there.
00:08:44.560 And can you imagine if Brezhnev
00:08:46.300 would have shown up in Hanoi?
00:08:51.760 He would have just shown up in Hanoi in Vietnam.
00:08:55.000 We all knew that Russia was involved.
00:08:58.200 We all knew they were giving.
00:08:59.940 But if he would have said,
00:09:01.540 you know what?
00:09:02.880 We're with you till the very end.
00:09:04.920 And the very end,
00:09:06.480 we look at this as regime change in Washington.
00:09:11.040 Do you not think we would have gone to war?
00:09:13.640 Do you not think we would have been justified
00:09:15.520 to include Russia in that?
00:09:19.380 Of course we would.
00:09:22.160 We have our president in Ukraine today
00:09:25.860 saying we are with you in this fight.
00:09:29.060 And this fight is unlimited
00:09:31.160 and it will only end with regime change.
00:09:36.520 What the hell do you think that means to Russia?
00:09:39.680 And now, after we're sending all this,
00:09:42.940 we actually think we have the right
00:09:46.900 to tell China,
00:09:48.940 don't send any military aid to Russia.
00:09:53.200 Who the hell do we think we are?
00:09:55.760 We're on the wrong side.
00:09:59.220 We, this is the beginning
00:10:00.940 of real darkness.
00:10:04.060 We are on the wrong side.
00:10:05.960 And I'm not saying China and Russia
00:10:07.640 are the right side.
00:10:09.900 We should not be involved in this.
00:10:15.700 This is, this is,
00:10:17.720 this should terrify people.
00:10:19.480 We're sending the fighter jets.
00:10:21.120 You know it's coming.
00:10:21.920 And that's the, the final straw for Putin.
00:10:25.460 We're telling China that, you know,
00:10:29.040 we're going to hold you to a different standard.
00:10:32.360 Meanwhile, Putin's cronies are threatening
00:10:35.440 to nuke England.
00:10:37.920 They said London will turn to dust
00:10:40.740 and they will burn in hell
00:10:43.800 and be destroyed in flames
00:10:45.720 if we send any more weaponry,
00:10:48.660 if they do.
00:10:49.340 So, what does the UK do?
00:10:52.400 They issue a national warning message
00:10:55.940 of world war.
00:10:58.380 This is the first time
00:11:00.600 they have done this
00:11:01.780 since early in the Cold War.
00:11:06.000 But,
00:11:07.440 Russians,
00:11:08.340 who are kind of on our side,
00:11:10.800 said,
00:11:11.440 they are serious about pointing missiles
00:11:14.600 towards Great Britain.
00:11:15.880 And so, the UK,
00:11:17.820 quote,
00:11:18.280 has to be prepared
00:11:19.720 for a nuclear war.
00:11:22.620 No, they don't.
00:11:24.200 No, they don't.
00:11:25.680 We can stop this madness
00:11:27.380 right now.
00:11:32.420 They,
00:11:32.740 I am not
00:11:35.560 for Russia
00:11:36.600 or Putin.
00:11:38.480 But I am
00:11:40.000 for
00:11:40.680 this insanity
00:11:42.920 to stop.
00:11:45.700 I don't know
00:11:47.100 other than
00:11:48.140 what I have
00:11:49.680 told you long ago
00:11:52.700 would happen.
00:11:53.660 These progressives
00:11:54.680 do the same thing.
00:11:56.140 They take it up
00:11:57.080 to a certain point
00:11:58.240 and right at the moment
00:11:59.660 of collapse,
00:12:00.920 soon as there's no trust,
00:12:03.200 what do they do?
00:12:04.480 They have to have a war
00:12:06.180 to be able
00:12:07.060 to justify
00:12:08.000 all of the massive changes
00:12:10.320 that they're going
00:12:11.000 to make
00:12:11.440 to society.
00:12:13.100 Because by the other
00:12:14.120 side of the war,
00:12:15.160 you won't really
00:12:16.500 even care
00:12:17.480 if you get
00:12:18.100 your freedoms back.
00:12:19.200 You just want
00:12:19.760 the bloodshed
00:12:20.580 to stop.
00:12:21.700 That's their theories.
00:12:25.900 And these people
00:12:27.480 are going to do it.
00:12:29.200 These people
00:12:30.060 are crazy enough
00:12:31.360 to do it.
00:12:33.820 I mean,
00:12:34.380 we don't even know
00:12:35.100 who blew up
00:12:35.960 the pipeline.
00:12:37.080 Who blew it up?
00:12:38.800 If it wasn't us,
00:12:40.180 who was it?
00:12:41.560 I mean,
00:12:41.920 the Western
00:12:42.580 detectives
00:12:45.980 went in.
00:12:48.360 What was it?
00:12:48.860 Sweden?
00:12:49.460 Norway?
00:12:50.080 They went in.
00:12:50.840 They said it wasn't Russia.
00:12:52.300 Germans said
00:12:53.040 it wasn't Russia.
00:12:54.260 So who was it?
00:12:55.780 China?
00:12:58.500 India?
00:13:00.900 Iran?
00:13:02.660 There were only
00:13:03.460 about five countries
00:13:04.680 that can do it.
00:13:05.940 And on the list
00:13:06.780 of five,
00:13:07.620 only two of them
00:13:09.340 are Axis.
00:13:11.020 Only Russia
00:13:11.980 and China.
00:13:13.420 Explain that.
00:13:15.360 So was it
00:13:16.220 England that did it?
00:13:18.160 And we didn't
00:13:19.040 know anything about it?
00:13:20.320 Who did it?
00:13:21.680 Who did it?
00:13:22.920 And why would you
00:13:23.820 do it?
00:13:26.240 These questions
00:13:27.820 have got to be
00:13:29.000 answered right now.
00:13:30.880 We are
00:13:31.660 marching
00:13:32.340 toward war.
00:13:34.000 and I've
00:13:35.880 never lived
00:13:36.860 in a period
00:13:37.840 of time
00:13:38.620 ever
00:13:39.040 where I have
00:13:40.220 seen
00:13:40.620 my country
00:13:41.940 so detached
00:13:43.500 from the people
00:13:44.960 in the country
00:13:45.820 and they are
00:13:47.600 just
00:13:48.100 leading us
00:13:49.440 into places
00:13:50.800 none of us
00:13:51.540 want to go.
00:13:52.300 Did you want
00:13:52.820 an oil crisis?
00:13:54.360 Or did you want
00:13:55.440 to remain,
00:13:56.500 you know,
00:13:57.000 the biggest producer
00:13:58.120 of oil
00:13:58.860 and have our gas
00:13:59.960 prices low?
00:14:01.160 Were you for that?
00:14:02.540 Were you for that?
00:14:03.220 Are you for this
00:14:04.220 gas stove thing?
00:14:05.340 No matter what they say
00:14:06.260 that is true.
00:14:07.940 They're going after
00:14:09.000 natural gas.
00:14:11.280 So do you want
00:14:12.160 to get rid
00:14:12.860 of natural gas
00:14:14.060 as well as oil?
00:14:15.720 Because I don't.
00:14:17.760 Do you want
00:14:18.720 all of these
00:14:19.520 all of these
00:14:20.580 men
00:14:22.240 wearing skirts?
00:14:23.740 That was the
00:14:24.180 latest story.
00:14:25.360 A guy wearing
00:14:26.240 a skirt,
00:14:26.880 he's a teacher
00:14:27.480 in kindergarten.
00:14:28.580 Did you ask
00:14:29.660 for this?
00:14:30.880 Because I didn't.
00:14:33.220 I don't know
00:14:34.660 Democrats
00:14:35.200 that asked
00:14:35.960 for this.
00:14:37.040 Where are the
00:14:37.700 Democrats
00:14:38.240 that are against
00:14:38.960 war?
00:14:41.280 Did you ask
00:14:42.660 for a war
00:14:43.400 with Russia?
00:14:44.280 Because I didn't.
00:14:49.760 They're ignoring
00:14:51.040 us and taking
00:14:52.360 us down a path
00:14:53.640 that they
00:14:54.680 are designing.
00:14:55.580 and we
00:14:58.680 have got
00:14:59.720 to stand
00:15:00.840 up.
00:15:01.420 You've got
00:15:02.260 to call
00:15:02.880 every congressman
00:15:03.940 and every senator
00:15:04.720 you know
00:15:05.300 and say
00:15:06.240 the hell I
00:15:07.720 will.
00:15:08.360 I am not
00:15:09.540 sending my
00:15:10.320 child to war
00:15:11.740 and I want
00:15:12.700 you to stop
00:15:13.240 sending my
00:15:14.180 money
00:15:14.780 to Ukraine.
00:15:17.920 Oh well
00:15:18.760 then we'll
00:15:19.160 just empower
00:15:19.860 Putin.
00:15:21.820 You know
00:15:22.580 what?
00:15:23.920 Putin's really
00:15:24.820 smart.
00:15:25.800 Really smart.
00:15:27.640 He may be
00:15:28.540 crazy.
00:15:29.320 He's definitely
00:15:30.020 a killer.
00:15:30.880 Cold-blooded
00:15:31.540 killer.
00:15:33.100 But he's
00:15:34.080 lasted this
00:15:34.780 long.
00:15:35.520 He seems
00:15:36.340 to have
00:15:37.100 you know
00:15:37.640 less syphilis
00:15:39.340 than the last
00:15:40.240 mad dictator
00:15:41.380 that tried to
00:15:41.980 take over
00:15:42.400 the world.
00:15:44.460 I don't want
00:15:45.500 to give him
00:15:46.120 any help
00:15:46.960 but I also
00:15:50.100 don't think
00:15:50.940 World War
00:15:52.040 Three
00:15:52.680 will end
00:15:53.940 well.
00:15:58.360 This is
00:15:59.480 the best
00:16:00.060 of the
00:16:00.440 Glenn Beck
00:16:00.740 program.
00:16:04.940 Welcome to
00:16:05.800 the Glenn Beck
00:16:06.560 program.
00:16:07.120 We're so glad
00:16:07.940 you're here.
00:16:09.180 Pat Gray
00:16:09.960 joins us
00:16:10.520 from Pat Gray
00:16:11.600 Unleashed
00:16:12.560 and
00:16:13.840 Pat we're
00:16:15.440 just talking
00:16:16.060 about how
00:16:16.700 grateful we
00:16:17.680 are that
00:16:18.180 Biden is in
00:16:19.300 charge and
00:16:20.140 the people
00:16:21.000 in our
00:16:21.300 Pentagon the
00:16:21.820 people who
00:16:22.240 brought us
00:16:23.060 you know
00:16:24.320 Afghanistan
00:16:25.000 and did such
00:16:27.560 a good job
00:16:28.060 there.
00:16:28.480 Oh yeah
00:16:28.720 they did.
00:16:29.200 Such a great
00:16:29.580 job.
00:16:30.040 They did and
00:16:30.360 let's never
00:16:30.820 forget.
00:16:31.780 And so now
00:16:33.220 they're maneuvering
00:16:34.900 us into a
00:16:36.140 new war
00:16:36.920 with Russia
00:16:38.280 and it
00:16:39.600 feels as
00:16:40.300 though we're
00:16:40.600 going for
00:16:41.020 China too.
00:16:41.820 It does
00:16:42.320 doesn't it?
00:16:42.920 Yeah.
00:16:43.320 Yeah.
00:16:43.740 I'm a little
00:16:44.580 disappointed that
00:16:45.640 we've only given
00:16:46.580 200 billion
00:16:47.880 dollars to
00:16:48.700 Ukraine so far.
00:16:50.140 I think it
00:16:52.660 should be at
00:16:53.380 least double
00:16:53.860 that maybe
00:16:54.340 triple.
00:16:55.160 Do you?
00:16:55.560 Yeah.
00:16:55.700 I think we
00:16:55.940 should hit the
00:16:56.280 trillion dollar
00:16:56.760 mark.
00:16:57.460 Okay.
00:16:58.020 Yes.
00:16:58.180 Are you
00:16:58.760 supporting
00:16:59.180 Vladimir Putin?
00:17:00.080 No I'm not.
00:17:00.820 No I am not a
00:17:01.620 Russian agent.
00:17:02.640 Yeah.
00:17:02.960 And so I'm
00:17:03.480 going to say
00:17:03.780 we should have
00:17:04.240 maybe it should
00:17:04.820 be around
00:17:05.160 two trillion.
00:17:05.880 Anything less
00:17:06.280 than three trillion
00:17:07.000 is basically
00:17:07.860 Russian propaganda.
00:17:09.040 Yes.
00:17:10.360 I mean I
00:17:11.140 think we can
00:17:12.280 get there now
00:17:12.760 that we're
00:17:13.020 paying you
00:17:13.680 know for
00:17:14.600 their social
00:17:15.440 security.
00:17:16.780 Yeah.
00:17:17.400 We can't even
00:17:17.940 pay for our
00:17:18.620 own social
00:17:19.620 security.
00:17:20.140 Which is
00:17:20.420 going insolvent
00:17:21.240 in nine
00:17:21.860 years.
00:17:22.200 Yeah.
00:17:22.680 And now we're
00:17:23.100 paying for
00:17:23.480 Ukraine.
00:17:24.080 Yeah.
00:17:24.320 That's a really
00:17:24.720 good idea.
00:17:25.300 I like that.
00:17:25.960 I do like
00:17:26.560 that.
00:17:26.820 I do like
00:17:27.320 that.
00:17:28.320 There's a
00:17:29.080 story from
00:17:30.260 the Australian
00:17:31.420 broadcasting
00:17:32.180 company.
00:17:33.240 What would
00:17:33.960 war with
00:17:34.540 China look
00:17:35.260 like for
00:17:35.880 Australia?
00:17:36.620 Australia.
00:17:37.900 And I think
00:17:38.320 it's a four
00:17:38.720 or five
00:17:39.020 part series
00:17:39.800 and it's
00:17:40.800 talking to
00:17:42.120 all their
00:17:42.380 military
00:17:42.880 experts
00:17:43.560 who say
00:17:44.620 and I
00:17:45.680 quote
00:17:46.080 I don't
00:17:47.300 think
00:17:47.640 there
00:17:47.860 if I
00:17:48.760 say
00:17:49.040 quote
00:17:49.440 I don't
00:17:50.340 think there
00:17:50.700 is any
00:17:51.060 credible
00:17:51.600 chance
00:17:52.260 that
00:17:52.500 America
00:17:53.040 with or
00:17:53.760 without
00:17:54.120 Australia's
00:17:54.900 support
00:17:55.200 could win
00:17:55.720 a war
00:17:56.220 with
00:17:56.660 China.
00:17:57.080 So we
00:18:00.220 have that
00:18:00.860 going for
00:18:01.280 us.
00:18:01.720 And they
00:18:01.940 just
00:18:02.180 outline
00:18:02.760 what is
00:18:03.720 it going
00:18:03.960 to mean
00:18:04.280 to
00:18:04.480 Australia
00:18:05.060 and they
00:18:06.460 also say
00:18:07.140 this is
00:18:07.520 why all
00:18:08.020 of our
00:18:08.320 ambassadors
00:18:08.820 are
00:18:09.220 everywhere
00:18:09.940 especially
00:18:11.340 in China
00:18:11.980 trying to
00:18:12.620 defuse
00:18:13.340 any
00:18:14.160 possible
00:18:14.680 war
00:18:15.120 with the
00:18:15.440 United
00:18:15.660 States
00:18:16.100 and
00:18:16.280 China.
00:18:17.280 So
00:18:17.440 it's
00:18:18.380 good.
00:18:19.000 It's
00:18:19.100 good.
00:18:19.640 Yeah.
00:18:19.740 Things are
00:18:20.080 going
00:18:20.220 really
00:18:20.460 well.
00:18:20.940 Really
00:18:21.180 well.
00:18:21.760 Yeah.
00:18:21.920 I was
00:18:22.200 really
00:18:22.400 excited
00:18:22.720 to see
00:18:23.040 the
00:18:23.180 president
00:18:23.520 in
00:18:24.440 Ukraine
00:18:24.880 today.
00:18:25.540 I think
00:18:26.100 that was
00:18:26.440 great.
00:18:26.780 Do you
00:18:27.220 think
00:18:27.520 that was
00:18:28.040 just a
00:18:28.760 whistle
00:18:29.240 stop
00:18:29.760 on his
00:18:30.440 way
00:18:30.800 to
00:18:31.080 Palestine
00:18:31.840 because
00:18:32.880 he
00:18:33.680 thought
00:18:34.060 that's
00:18:34.660 where
00:18:34.840 the
00:18:35.020 train
00:18:35.440 crash
00:18:36.180 was?
00:18:37.220 And
00:18:37.320 that's
00:18:37.540 why
00:18:37.680 he
00:18:37.800 hasn't
00:18:37.980 paid
00:18:38.160 attention
00:18:38.520 to
00:18:38.780 it.
00:18:39.040 Right.
00:18:39.420 Yeah.
00:18:39.680 Yeah.
00:18:40.000 He
00:18:40.200 didn't
00:18:40.420 go to
00:18:40.780 Ohio.
00:18:41.600 Instead,
00:18:42.160 he went
00:18:42.480 to
00:18:42.640 Ukraine.
00:18:43.220 Oh,
00:18:43.380 if it
00:18:43.620 was
00:18:43.760 actually
00:18:44.200 in
00:18:44.440 Palestine,
00:18:44.900 he'd
00:18:45.040 be
00:18:45.140 all
00:18:45.300 over
00:18:45.500 it.
00:18:45.720 Oh,
00:18:46.000 yeah.
00:18:46.660 We
00:18:47.180 would be
00:18:47.800 paying
00:18:48.000 their
00:18:48.140 pensions
00:18:48.540 right now.
00:18:49.080 Yeah.
00:18:49.160 Yeah.
00:18:49.180 Yeah.
00:18:49.320 It's
00:18:50.300 amazing
00:18:56.780 anybody
00:18:56.960 in the
00:18:57.360 government.
00:18:57.840 Oh,
00:18:57.980 by the
00:18:58.200 way,
00:18:58.400 they
00:18:58.520 changed
00:18:58.860 their
00:18:59.080 mind
00:18:59.420 on
00:18:59.620 Friday
00:19:00.080 on
00:19:01.080 helping
00:19:02.020 FEMA
00:19:03.400 being
00:19:03.860 sent to
00:19:04.340 it.
00:19:04.460 Yeah.
00:19:04.640 They
00:19:04.760 changed
00:19:05.140 that.
00:19:05.540 I wonder
00:19:05.800 why that
00:19:07.280 changed.
00:19:08.460 I wonder
00:19:08.660 why that
00:19:08.960 changed.
00:19:09.840 They
00:19:10.280 announced
00:19:10.580 it and
00:19:10.900 everybody
00:19:11.080 was like,
00:19:11.560 excuse
00:19:12.200 me?
00:19:13.760 And so
00:19:14.460 they changed
00:19:15.200 their mind.
00:19:15.760 Oh,
00:19:15.940 you know
00:19:16.280 what?
00:19:16.560 We just
00:19:17.040 found this
00:19:17.600 little clause
00:19:18.680 in here.
00:19:19.460 It says
00:19:20.060 we can
00:19:20.440 go over
00:19:20.740 and help.
00:19:21.660 So that's
00:19:22.280 big of
00:19:22.580 them.
00:19:22.940 Nobody
00:19:23.100 knew about
00:19:23.540 that before.
00:19:24.240 I'm
00:19:24.280 sure.
00:19:24.500 I didn't
00:19:24.740 know
00:19:24.920 about
00:19:25.140 that.
00:19:25.580 It was
00:19:26.600 on the
00:19:27.120 back of
00:19:27.540 the
00:19:27.760 doctrine.
00:19:29.600 When
00:19:29.880 have they
00:19:30.200 ever
00:19:30.480 helped
00:19:30.880 a local
00:19:32.240 municipality
00:19:32.820 before?
00:19:33.580 It's
00:19:33.700 never
00:19:33.920 happened.
00:19:34.280 I don't
00:19:35.040 think.
00:19:35.440 I'm
00:19:35.820 continually
00:19:36.840 fascinated
00:19:37.420 about how
00:19:37.840 this is
00:19:38.120 the one
00:19:38.560 time in
00:19:39.340 American
00:19:39.860 history
00:19:40.260 where the
00:19:40.740 media is
00:19:41.240 siding
00:19:41.500 with the
00:19:42.000 company.
00:19:42.520 I know.
00:19:43.300 What is
00:19:43.600 going on
00:19:44.440 with that?
00:19:45.640 I mean,
00:19:45.940 no environmentalists
00:19:47.220 yelling and
00:19:47.840 screaming about
00:19:48.660 this disaster.
00:19:49.720 They don't
00:19:50.440 care at
00:19:51.020 all.
00:19:51.360 Can you
00:19:51.840 believe these
00:19:52.360 right-wingers
00:19:53.000 think this
00:19:53.380 is Chernobyl
00:19:53.960 2.0?
00:19:54.500 All the
00:19:54.800 testing from
00:19:55.380 the company
00:19:55.820 said it
00:19:56.160 wasn't.
00:19:57.100 Wait a
00:19:57.560 minute.
00:19:57.760 You never
00:19:58.180 believe the
00:19:58.740 company.
00:20:00.260 What is
00:20:01.340 happening with
00:20:02.180 this?
00:20:02.740 It's
00:20:03.180 fascinating how
00:20:03.780 this stuff
00:20:04.060 happens.
00:20:04.540 And why?
00:20:05.060 Is it because
00:20:05.520 Ohio's a red
00:20:06.300 state?
00:20:06.940 Is that what
00:20:07.820 it is?
00:20:08.640 Or it has
00:20:09.560 something to
00:20:10.060 do with
00:20:10.600 the railroad.
00:20:12.060 I mean,
00:20:12.740 one of the
00:20:13.540 speculation is
00:20:15.880 one of the
00:20:17.120 reasons why
00:20:18.380 FEMA said
00:20:20.980 they wouldn't
00:20:21.880 come in.
00:20:22.760 Again,
00:20:23.400 speculation.
00:20:24.500 is because
00:20:25.120 the governor
00:20:28.040 wouldn't
00:20:29.840 declare
00:20:30.360 something
00:20:31.040 where it
00:20:33.460 could be
00:20:35.340 argued to
00:20:35.980 protect the
00:20:37.380 railroad from
00:20:38.840 any kind
00:20:39.680 of lawsuits.
00:20:41.380 So if
00:20:42.420 he called
00:20:44.180 them in and
00:20:45.260 it was
00:20:45.800 declared a
00:20:47.800 national emergency,
00:20:50.080 the railroad
00:20:51.000 might be able
00:20:52.440 to skirt its
00:20:54.020 responsibility.
00:20:55.260 So when he
00:20:56.640 called them in,
00:20:57.520 but not under a
00:20:58.400 national emergency,
00:20:59.460 that may have
00:21:01.140 been the reason
00:21:01.800 why FEMA said
00:21:03.200 we can't go
00:21:04.160 because you
00:21:06.100 need, I don't
00:21:07.320 remember what
00:21:07.760 it is, but
00:21:08.120 DeWine would
00:21:08.680 not give
00:21:09.480 them the
00:21:11.060 one piece
00:21:11.700 they needed
00:21:12.400 to be able
00:21:13.220 to declare
00:21:14.000 so it would
00:21:15.140 wipe, possibly
00:21:16.300 wipe the slate
00:21:17.160 from the train
00:21:17.700 company clean.
00:21:19.080 Does that make
00:21:19.660 sense?
00:21:20.020 Yeah, it makes
00:21:20.420 sense.
00:21:20.700 Although, you
00:21:21.100 know, I think
00:21:21.760 about every oil
00:21:22.620 spill that happens,
00:21:23.700 right?
00:21:24.020 Like they are
00:21:25.500 happy to bring
00:21:26.240 in all this
00:21:26.680 assistance.
00:21:27.100 And it's not
00:21:27.500 like, you
00:21:28.260 know, the big
00:21:28.860 oil company gets
00:21:29.740 a pass.
00:21:31.120 I'm not sure
00:21:32.300 if it's named
00:21:33.800 a national
00:21:34.400 emergency, though.
00:21:35.500 Yeah.
00:21:36.240 So, I mean,
00:21:37.120 when the oil
00:21:38.240 spill happened,
00:21:39.460 remember, under
00:21:40.420 Obama, was that
00:21:41.220 declared a
00:21:41.840 national emergency?
00:21:42.860 Off the top of
00:21:43.340 my head, I
00:21:43.560 don't remember.
00:21:44.080 Yeah.
00:21:44.600 The other thing
00:21:45.400 is that this
00:21:47.260 railroad was
00:21:49.220 owned by Warren
00:21:50.300 Fat Piece
00:21:50.940 of Crab
00:21:51.300 Buffett.
00:21:51.940 Maybe that has
00:21:52.540 something to do
00:21:53.340 with it.
00:21:53.820 That's right.
00:21:54.140 Is that his
00:21:54.680 official name?
00:21:55.480 Is that his
00:21:56.060 middle name?
00:21:56.760 Yeah, Fat
00:21:57.280 Piece of Crab.
00:21:58.300 Yeah, a lot of
00:21:59.080 people didn't
00:21:59.440 know that.
00:21:59.780 I didn't know
00:22:00.520 that at all.
00:22:01.320 Yeah.
00:22:01.600 Yeah.
00:22:01.920 I didn't know
00:22:02.360 that.
00:22:02.540 Yeah, that's
00:22:02.800 interesting.
00:22:03.300 Yeah.
00:22:04.140 Is that part of
00:22:05.040 the reason?
00:22:05.160 I mean, I didn't
00:22:05.480 name him.
00:22:06.080 You know, it's
00:22:06.460 his parents'
00:22:07.140 fault.
00:22:07.500 Yeah.
00:22:07.820 I mean, I don't
00:22:08.540 understand why
00:22:09.340 you would strap
00:22:11.140 your child with
00:22:11.980 that, but they
00:22:12.540 did.
00:22:13.020 So, what am I
00:22:13.700 going to do
00:22:14.020 about it?
00:22:14.460 Here's the
00:22:14.900 paragraph I
00:22:16.860 was talking
00:22:17.480 about.
00:22:17.820 It is unknown
00:22:18.380 what changed
00:22:19.060 in the time
00:22:19.640 since these
00:22:20.220 remarks, but
00:22:21.200 the governor
00:22:21.700 did confirm
00:22:22.620 he would
00:22:23.100 preemptively
00:22:23.820 file a
00:22:24.440 document with
00:22:25.100 FEMA to
00:22:25.800 preserve our
00:22:26.560 rights in
00:22:27.220 case we need
00:22:28.000 their assistance
00:22:28.520 in the future.
00:22:29.920 DeWine has
00:22:30.400 not declared
00:22:31.280 the crash
00:22:31.860 aftermath to
00:22:32.840 be a federal
00:22:33.700 disaster, perhaps
00:22:34.820 because of
00:22:35.360 concerns that
00:22:36.020 doing that
00:22:36.560 could shield
00:22:37.160 the Norfolk
00:22:37.740 Southern Railway
00:22:38.840 from liability.
00:22:41.200 Let's say, for
00:22:41.900 example, the
00:22:42.520 railroad stops
00:22:43.460 paying for
00:22:44.020 whatever reason,
00:22:44.880 DeWine said,
00:22:45.640 we're still
00:22:46.540 going to go
00:22:46.920 after the
00:22:47.400 railroad, but
00:22:48.400 we want to
00:22:49.000 make sure that
00:22:49.840 there will be
00:22:50.280 support for
00:22:50.820 the people if
00:22:51.480 that support
00:22:52.080 does, in fact,
00:22:52.800 stop from
00:22:53.480 the railroad.
00:22:54.140 Yeah.
00:22:54.320 I mean, you
00:22:54.960 know, the
00:22:55.340 wrangling here
00:22:56.040 shows how
00:22:56.660 complicated and
00:22:57.940 idiotic our
00:22:58.820 system is,
00:22:59.820 right?
00:23:00.140 Like, that
00:23:00.500 this stuff has
00:23:01.280 to be part
00:23:01.800 of it.
00:23:03.020 But, like,
00:23:03.620 these people are
00:23:04.480 going back and
00:23:05.200 saying, like,
00:23:05.560 hey, we can
00:23:06.040 still smell, like,
00:23:07.100 it smells like
00:23:07.600 battery acid around
00:23:08.580 here all the
00:23:08.980 time.
00:23:10.080 Is that bad?
00:23:10.960 Is that bad?
00:23:12.000 And, like, you
00:23:12.640 know, I have
00:23:13.880 this whole thing
00:23:14.660 where, like, I
00:23:15.100 can't breathe and
00:23:15.980 I've got this
00:23:16.580 burning in my
00:23:17.140 lungs and in my
00:23:17.880 nose and in my
00:23:18.520 throat.
00:23:19.920 You know what
00:23:20.500 that is?
00:23:20.900 Climate change.
00:23:21.620 Yeah.
00:23:21.880 It's climate change.
00:23:22.640 The New York
00:23:22.880 Times are like,
00:23:23.300 what are these
00:23:23.660 conspiracy theorists
00:23:24.820 on the right
00:23:25.300 talking about?
00:23:26.060 Wait a minute.
00:23:28.060 Like, every
00:23:29.120 single time a
00:23:31.240 company spills, like,
00:23:33.200 six ounces of
00:23:34.420 window cleaning
00:23:35.420 fluid on their
00:23:36.380 floor, we get the
00:23:37.400 Aaron Brockovich
00:23:38.220 treatment from the
00:23:39.160 media.
00:23:39.580 Except this one
00:23:40.620 time.
00:23:41.440 This one time,
00:23:42.260 they're just like,
00:23:42.720 oh, we, this
00:23:43.600 company, wow.
00:23:44.840 They're doing a
00:23:45.460 great job.
00:23:45.880 Look at all the
00:23:46.340 testing numbers.
00:23:47.140 These people are
00:23:48.080 lunatics.
00:23:49.000 Where did this come
00:23:49.840 from?
00:23:50.700 It is such a weird
00:23:51.840 thing.
00:23:52.160 I kind of assigned
00:23:53.840 it in my head.
00:23:54.720 I think it's public
00:23:55.000 private partnerships.
00:23:56.800 Maybe.
00:23:57.380 I had to sign it to
00:23:58.800 maybe a defense of
00:24:00.420 the Biden
00:24:00.900 administration and
00:24:01.580 their handling of
00:24:02.340 it.
00:24:02.900 We're like, oh,
00:24:03.940 well, everyone's
00:24:05.040 complaining about
00:24:06.100 Chernobyl 2.0 because
00:24:07.340 they don't like
00:24:07.820 Biden.
00:24:08.340 They don't like
00:24:08.740 Buttigieg.
00:24:09.980 And in reality, this
00:24:11.400 is nothing.
00:24:11.800 They've tested
00:24:12.300 everything.
00:24:12.840 Everything's fine.
00:24:13.880 And I think that's
00:24:14.440 what they're trying to
00:24:15.440 push on the people.
00:24:16.360 But the people are
00:24:16.920 living there.
00:24:17.720 They have nostrils.
00:24:19.480 Like, I don't know.
00:24:20.340 They also have
00:24:21.680 rashes that hurt a
00:24:23.200 lot.
00:24:24.060 But I've heard those
00:24:24.680 are safe to scratch
00:24:25.540 though now.
00:24:26.700 You can go ahead
00:24:27.620 and scratch your
00:24:28.900 rash.
00:24:30.340 Did you see Cincinnati
00:24:31.380 is cutting off the
00:24:32.260 drinking water from
00:24:33.680 the Ohio River?
00:24:34.660 Just as a precaution
00:24:35.540 though.
00:24:35.720 Yeah.
00:24:36.160 I mean, there's no
00:24:37.240 reason that we
00:24:38.760 would think that
00:24:39.540 anything was
00:24:40.440 happening there.
00:24:41.660 But no big deal.
00:24:43.240 Yeah.
00:24:44.260 And the latest,
00:24:46.180 and by the way,
00:24:46.700 we want to hear
00:24:47.180 from you at
00:24:48.180 727-888-727-BECK.
00:24:53.480 I give out our
00:24:53.960 phone number so
00:24:54.520 rarely.
00:24:55.900 888-727-BECK.
00:24:57.700 Today, we're going
00:24:58.140 to take your phone
00:24:58.680 calls.
00:24:58.980 And I'd love to hear
00:24:59.740 from people who
00:25:00.800 are experiencing
00:25:01.440 this firsthand.
00:25:02.500 Did you see the
00:25:03.080 railroad came out
00:25:03.880 and said,
00:25:04.820 yeah, when we
00:25:07.020 asked people to
00:25:08.360 sign that legal
00:25:09.400 waiver, that
00:25:10.880 was a mistake.
00:25:13.860 Who put that in
00:25:15.180 there?
00:25:15.640 We didn't know
00:25:16.320 that was in there.
00:25:17.240 Does anybody
00:25:18.420 believe that?
00:25:20.360 I don't.
00:25:21.520 No.
00:25:22.140 Surprisingly.
00:25:22.860 I mean, look,
00:25:23.480 the automatic
00:25:24.860 defense of a
00:25:25.760 company, right,
00:25:26.380 is going to
00:25:27.080 come and say,
00:25:27.900 hey, get
00:25:28.140 everyone to
00:25:28.460 sign a waiver.
00:25:29.220 You know, I
00:25:29.500 mean, like,
00:25:29.820 that's going to
00:25:30.360 be automatic
00:25:31.100 whether they
00:25:31.780 have real
00:25:32.320 responsibility or
00:25:33.160 not.
00:25:33.820 Here, they
00:25:34.360 obviously do
00:25:34.900 have responsibility
00:25:35.480 as they, you
00:25:36.420 know, cop to
00:25:37.320 at this point.
00:25:38.160 I mean, they
00:25:38.480 are putting a
00:25:40.080 bunch of money
00:25:40.520 into this and
00:25:41.040 supposedly, you
00:25:42.160 know, doing
00:25:43.220 these things to
00:25:43.980 repair the damage
00:25:45.080 that they obviously
00:25:45.820 are responsible
00:25:47.160 for here.
00:25:48.380 So, like, you
00:25:50.540 could see them
00:25:51.060 coming in there
00:25:51.580 and just kind of
00:25:52.060 default judgment
00:25:53.000 of just like,
00:25:53.520 hey, everyone
00:25:53.880 signed this
00:25:54.340 thing, but like,
00:25:55.060 you can't deny
00:25:55.600 it afterward.
00:25:56.780 So you are,
00:25:57.480 let's say you
00:25:58.000 are the, one
00:25:59.740 of the governors
00:26:00.260 involved in this
00:26:01.060 and they had to
00:26:02.160 both sign off on
00:26:03.280 setting it on
00:26:04.460 fire.
00:26:05.320 And I've seen
00:26:06.760 some stories now
00:26:07.520 that people are
00:26:07.960 like, they
00:26:08.340 shouldn't have
00:26:08.740 set it on fire.
00:26:09.580 Well, the
00:26:10.420 choice was we
00:26:12.640 can roll the
00:26:13.520 dice and hope
00:26:15.700 that it doesn't
00:26:16.720 explode.
00:26:17.600 And if it does
00:26:18.820 explode, it
00:26:19.660 could send
00:26:20.360 shrapnel for at
00:26:21.900 least a mile in
00:26:23.840 every direction
00:26:24.740 or a controlled
00:26:26.580 burn, a
00:26:27.180 controlled burn.
00:26:28.040 To me, there
00:26:28.980 would be no.
00:26:30.180 Yeah, me too.
00:26:30.980 I would say
00:26:31.740 controlled burn
00:26:32.540 when you, I
00:26:33.840 mean, I don't
00:26:34.300 know much about
00:26:35.020 it, obviously.
00:26:35.760 Yeah.
00:26:35.920 I mean, yes,
00:26:36.460 do I give
00:26:36.900 those two options.
00:26:37.640 Sure.
00:26:38.260 Yeah.
00:26:38.420 Sounds a lot
00:26:38.780 better.
00:26:38.860 You haven't, you
00:26:39.780 haven't tried to
00:26:40.780 control many toxic
00:26:41.700 spills?
00:26:42.240 No, I mean, a few.
00:26:43.420 A few, yeah.
00:26:44.080 A few.
00:26:44.700 Yeah, I've done
00:26:45.200 17, so.
00:26:46.480 Okay, so you're
00:26:47.000 much more experienced.
00:26:47.920 I'm going controlled
00:26:48.640 burn every time,
00:26:50.180 which I've done
00:26:50.640 in the past.
00:26:51.340 Pete Buttigieg,
00:26:52.460 how many controlled
00:26:53.820 burns has he,
00:26:55.220 or has he,
00:26:56.780 when he was
00:26:57.240 mayor?
00:26:57.880 Yeah.
00:26:58.260 South Bend?
00:26:58.840 When he was mayor
00:26:59.520 of South Bend.
00:27:00.100 He didn't have
00:27:00.400 any controlled
00:27:00.780 burns, but he
00:27:01.200 did put decorative
00:27:01.900 lighting up on the
00:27:03.200 bottom of a bridge.
00:27:03.980 It was beautiful.
00:27:04.700 It was very, very
00:27:06.100 decorative.
00:27:06.480 If you kind of
00:27:07.040 look at the night
00:27:07.580 sky, some of the
00:27:09.180 trees as it was
00:27:09.840 flashing, it kind
00:27:10.480 of looked like a
00:27:11.220 controlled burn,
00:27:12.240 maybe.
00:27:13.160 And by the way,
00:27:14.060 the only reason
00:27:14.680 If your eyes were
00:27:15.260 blurry.
00:27:15.800 Yeah.
00:27:16.180 And I should point
00:27:16.680 out the only reason
00:27:17.160 I remember he put
00:27:18.000 up that decorative
00:27:18.540 lighting, obviously
00:27:19.320 wouldn't be a main
00:27:20.040 topic because it's
00:27:20.780 not really a big
00:27:22.180 accomplishment.
00:27:24.200 But I do remember
00:27:25.020 it because Joe
00:27:25.780 Biden and his
00:27:26.640 campaign pointed out
00:27:27.720 what a joke
00:27:28.440 Buttigieg was by
00:27:30.360 pointing out his
00:27:30.900 only accomplishment
00:27:31.660 was that he put
00:27:32.320 up decorative lighting
00:27:33.120 under a bridge.
00:27:33.760 I remember that
00:27:35.180 ad.
00:27:36.040 And, you know,
00:27:36.880 it's strange that
00:27:38.540 he hasn't put any
00:27:40.540 lighting like
00:27:41.360 underneath the
00:27:42.280 wreckage, you know
00:27:43.220 what I mean?
00:27:43.440 That'd be cool.
00:27:44.120 To highlight at
00:27:45.460 night, it would be
00:27:46.260 really cool.
00:27:47.360 With the rainbow
00:27:48.100 colors in the water,
00:27:49.220 it would be really
00:27:50.060 pretty.
00:27:50.480 It would.
00:27:51.020 Do you see J.D.
00:27:51.780 Vance take the
00:27:52.480 stick and pull it
00:27:55.100 across?
00:27:55.500 He takes a stick and
00:27:56.760 puts it in a creek
00:27:57.680 and pulls across and
00:27:59.100 it just looks like an
00:27:59.920 oil spill.
00:28:00.640 Everything comes up
00:28:01.420 and I'm like, J.D.,
00:28:04.040 the answer there is
00:28:05.320 don't do that with a
00:28:06.660 stick.
00:28:07.120 Right.
00:28:07.840 You're fine.
00:28:08.840 That's step one.
00:28:09.920 I mean, all the
00:28:11.460 water, it's all
00:28:12.540 gone down to the
00:28:13.340 bottom of the
00:28:14.260 don't just drink
00:28:15.400 from the top.
00:28:16.440 What a dummy.
00:28:17.260 Yeah.
00:28:17.840 Really?
00:28:19.040 Really.
00:28:20.220 Really stupid.
00:28:20.620 I mean, isn't step
00:28:21.320 one just to go to
00:28:22.040 all the people in
00:28:22.620 this town and just
00:28:23.120 be like, look,
00:28:24.240 we've got rooms for
00:28:25.100 you at Disneyland.
00:28:25.940 We're going there
00:28:26.620 right now.
00:28:27.160 You can just go
00:28:27.580 there.
00:28:27.860 You can just stay
00:28:28.400 there as long as
00:28:29.020 you want.
00:28:29.580 I mean, the fact
00:28:30.180 that they're telling
00:28:30.660 people to go back
00:28:31.540 to these homes when
00:28:32.460 they're still smelling
00:28:33.500 the stuff, at least
00:28:34.360 get them out of the
00:28:35.300 area if they want to
00:28:37.040 go.
00:28:37.560 Right.
00:28:37.900 Yeah.
00:28:38.060 Yeah.
00:28:38.240 Can I tell you something?
00:28:39.280 We are looking at an
00:28:41.100 American war zone.
00:28:42.400 Okay.
00:28:42.920 And honestly, how many
00:28:44.640 people are in that
00:28:45.360 town?
00:28:47.420 I don't know.
00:28:48.260 I don't know.
00:28:48.820 It's very small.
00:28:50.020 Look at it.
00:28:50.500 Is it even 5,000?
00:28:51.940 No, I don't even
00:28:52.700 think it's that big.
00:28:53.480 Is it?
00:28:53.740 4,718.
00:28:54.960 That was a pretty
00:28:55.400 good guess.
00:28:55.820 That was an
00:28:56.200 incredible guess.
00:28:58.160 Are you an expert
00:28:59.220 on East Palestine?
00:29:00.340 4,000.
00:29:01.300 How many?
00:29:01.840 4,718.
00:29:03.100 As of 2021, it could
00:29:04.320 be 5,000 exactly right
00:29:05.800 now.
00:29:05.940 He went over.
00:29:07.280 He went over.
00:29:08.640 Oh, that's right.
00:29:09.760 Yes.
00:29:10.860 He can't go over.
00:29:12.840 Anyway.
00:29:13.180 So the yodeling climber
00:29:14.440 just fell off the cliff.
00:29:15.680 Wouldn't it be a better
00:29:17.380 use of our money just to
00:29:18.840 buy all of their land,
00:29:20.280 their property, and
00:29:21.360 everything else?
00:29:22.140 Yeah, it would.
00:29:22.220 That would be a great
00:29:22.800 PR move.
00:29:23.280 Sending it over to
00:29:25.040 Ukraine?
00:29:26.600 Yep.
00:29:27.360 Now, a lot of people
00:29:28.660 may not choose to do
00:29:30.020 that, as a lot of
00:29:31.180 times this happens, but
00:29:32.240 you offer it, yeah.
00:29:33.300 Possibility, right?
00:29:34.000 Offer them the buyout.
00:29:34.500 Here's the option.
00:29:35.440 At least say, hey, the
00:29:37.140 next three months are on
00:29:38.540 us, and we'll figure out
00:29:39.680 the rest a little bit
00:29:40.580 later.
00:29:40.880 And that's what a lot
00:29:41.300 of the people want.
00:29:42.200 Yeah.
00:29:42.440 Buy my place so I can
00:29:43.700 get out of here.
00:29:44.620 Because they've
00:29:45.580 destroyed the town.
00:29:46.700 How are you going to
00:29:47.360 sell this house
00:29:48.160 eventually?
00:29:48.660 You're not.
00:29:49.180 You're not.
00:29:50.560 No.
00:29:50.760 What are the Zillow
00:29:51.400 values of these homes?
00:29:51.580 Hey, I've got some
00:29:52.400 property backs up to
00:29:53.680 the back fence of
00:29:54.860 Three Mile Island.
00:29:56.480 Oh, okay.
00:29:57.640 And that would be
00:29:57.920 much better.
00:29:58.680 It would.
00:29:59.160 Much better.
00:29:59.880 It would.
00:30:03.640 You're listening to
00:30:04.700 the best of the
00:30:05.400 Glenn Beck Program.
00:30:10.040 Let me give you a
00:30:11.260 couple of quick facts
00:30:13.140 here that you should
00:30:14.200 know about.
00:30:15.000 There are states
00:30:15.820 currently working on
00:30:17.540 anti-ESG,
00:30:19.180 legislation.
00:30:20.660 And these are the
00:30:21.300 states that we are
00:30:22.340 monitoring that are
00:30:23.640 currently working
00:30:24.500 seriously on either
00:30:26.660 anti-ESG legislation,
00:30:29.980 either state contracts,
00:30:33.820 state pensions, or
00:30:35.600 fair access.
00:30:36.880 Some of them are
00:30:37.240 working on all of
00:30:37.900 them.
00:30:38.040 Fair access is really
00:30:39.160 important to ask to
00:30:40.320 make sure it's in.
00:30:41.220 That gives you the
00:30:42.320 opportunity to not
00:30:43.820 have to wait for your
00:30:45.380 attorney general.
00:30:46.440 You can sue if they
00:30:48.440 are using anything
00:30:49.680 other than a credit
00:30:50.920 score to give you
00:30:53.220 credit or if they're
00:30:55.060 looking at any ESG kind
00:30:56.620 of stuff to give you a
00:30:57.480 score of any kind.
00:30:59.180 Wyoming, North Dakota,
00:31:00.700 South Dakota, Montana,
00:31:02.180 Missouri, Arizona,
00:31:03.600 Minnesota, Mississippi,
00:31:05.480 Virginia, South Carolina,
00:31:08.040 Arkansas, Oklahoma,
00:31:09.520 Kansas, Pennsylvania,
00:31:11.020 Texas, Idaho, New
00:31:12.540 Hampshire, Florida,
00:31:13.520 Tennessee, West
00:31:14.600 Virginia, and
00:31:15.500 Pennsylvania.
00:31:16.580 All of these are the
00:31:18.660 ones that are doing
00:31:20.780 something.
00:31:21.780 So get involved at your
00:31:23.360 state level.
00:31:24.720 Now, fair access.
00:31:26.600 This is the legislation
00:31:27.760 that empowers you to
00:31:30.640 actually fight ESG.
00:31:32.620 And what it is, is they
00:31:34.080 have to disclose to you
00:31:35.780 that they are using ESG.
00:31:38.260 So there's no guesswork.
00:31:40.300 Right now, they don't have
00:31:41.280 to disclose that.
00:31:42.580 So you're turned down
00:31:43.420 for a loan.
00:31:44.600 You don't know why.
00:31:46.780 If they're using anything
00:31:48.540 other than your financial
00:31:50.660 records to make a decision,
00:31:52.920 you deserve to know that.
00:31:54.820 So you can, A, not use
00:31:57.820 that organization, that
00:31:59.460 bank or whatever, ever
00:32:00.720 again, tell your friends
00:32:02.480 that that's what they do
00:32:03.580 and sue them.
00:32:06.960 If you don't have fair
00:32:08.640 access, you can't sue
00:32:10.440 them.
00:32:11.240 And that is really
00:32:12.660 important.
00:32:14.080 So far, there are only
00:32:15.260 three states that are
00:32:17.980 fighting with this, and
00:32:19.700 that is Nebraska, North
00:32:21.420 Dakota, and New
00:32:22.460 Hampshire.
00:32:23.200 They've had their
00:32:24.060 hearings on the fair
00:32:25.060 access bills, two just
00:32:27.220 last week.
00:32:28.600 Bankers are adamantly
00:32:30.540 opposed to this, and
00:32:31.840 they are very well
00:32:33.260 organized.
00:32:34.720 You need to stand up
00:32:36.180 for fair access.
00:32:37.360 Florida is probably the
00:32:41.580 best.
00:32:42.100 There are other states
00:32:43.800 that are at some point
00:32:46.400 with a fair access bill,
00:32:48.380 and you need to get
00:32:49.440 involved.
00:32:50.540 Tennessee, Oklahoma,
00:32:52.400 South Dakota, Utah,
00:32:54.040 Iowa, Arkansas, South
00:32:55.520 Carolina, Kansas, and
00:32:58.420 Montana.
00:32:59.340 Also, there is an ESG, an
00:33:02.180 anti-ESG bill in
00:33:03.580 Indiana that could use
00:33:04.900 some help.
00:33:05.440 It's Indiana HB 1008, and
00:33:09.720 it relates to state
00:33:10.760 pension funds not being
00:33:12.260 invested in ESG.
00:33:13.980 This bill is much more
00:33:16.120 limited in scope compared
00:33:17.420 to the fair access type
00:33:18.900 legislation.
00:33:19.540 This only protects state
00:33:21.600 pension funds, still a
00:33:23.980 step in the right
00:33:24.660 direction, and it's
00:33:27.380 similar to what they
00:33:28.580 passed in West
00:33:29.280 Virginia, but they're
00:33:30.580 working with the
00:33:31.380 treasurer in Indiana on
00:33:32.760 this bill right now.
00:33:34.720 It would be very, very
00:33:35.900 helpful if anybody in
00:33:37.680 Indiana would contact
00:33:39.240 their state legislator and
00:33:40.920 their governor and let
00:33:42.700 them know they want to
00:33:43.560 see Indiana Bill HB
00:33:45.160 1008 pass.
00:33:47.640 Let me go to Matthew
00:33:49.500 in Tennessee.
00:33:50.220 Hello, Matthew.
00:33:50.900 Welcome.
00:33:52.280 Hey, Glenn.
00:33:53.020 Thanks for taking my
00:33:53.720 call this morning.
00:33:54.720 I'm out here driving a
00:33:55.860 big rig, coming in from
00:33:58.240 Atlanta, Georgia, back to
00:33:59.380 Tennessee.
00:34:00.000 I just want to share what
00:34:00.900 I see traveling all over
00:34:02.060 the country.
00:34:02.800 I travel everywhere from
00:34:03.920 Miami, Florida, up to
00:34:05.100 Delaware.
00:34:07.460 Every single place I
00:34:08.840 travel in America is
00:34:10.260 running on a short
00:34:11.060 staff.
00:34:12.880 Nobody's working.
00:34:14.520 I've been driving a
00:34:15.480 big rig for 12 years
00:34:16.640 out here.
00:34:17.060 And before COVID, you'd
00:34:19.880 get the morning rush
00:34:20.920 when people are going
00:34:21.660 to work, people are
00:34:22.460 taking their kids to
00:34:23.220 school and stuff, and
00:34:24.120 then it would be dead in
00:34:25.040 the mornings, and then
00:34:25.860 you'd get a little bit of
00:34:26.700 rush at lunch.
00:34:27.580 And then the same thing
00:34:28.740 in the evening, ever
00:34:30.040 since COVID, the roads
00:34:32.320 are packed all day.
00:34:33.700 I'm in Atlanta.
00:34:35.040 You can be in Atlanta on
00:34:36.260 a Wednesday at 930 in
00:34:39.740 the morning, and it's
00:34:40.840 rush hour.
00:34:41.840 Nobody's working.
00:34:43.320 Everywhere I go,
00:34:44.340 nobody's working.
00:34:45.120 And the places that I
00:34:46.120 travel, I talk to all
00:34:47.040 these people, and they
00:34:48.440 can't even get
00:34:49.020 applicants.
00:34:50.280 You know, where I work,
00:34:52.020 I haul for my plant, and
00:34:53.880 we can't even get
00:34:54.800 applicants for high-paying
00:34:56.440 jobs.
00:34:57.100 I know.
00:34:57.360 And, you know, where
00:34:58.800 does it go from here?
00:34:59.800 I'm 36, and I've been
00:35:01.500 working since I was 15.
00:35:02.680 I'm a truck driver, and I'm
00:35:03.640 a yard.
00:35:04.900 And, you know, I've got a
00:35:06.540 great life, but everywhere
00:35:07.540 I travel, nobody's willing
00:35:09.160 to work.
00:35:09.680 You go out to eat, you
00:35:10.840 short-staff, you know,
00:35:12.080 everywhere I travel to, I
00:35:13.860 just got fuel at Pilot.
00:35:15.880 When you go in, there's two
00:35:17.100 people working behind the
00:35:18.080 counter, playing on their
00:35:19.040 cell phones, and I need a
00:35:20.260 receipt, and they say,
00:35:21.020 hey, there's a self-checkout
00:35:22.220 open.
00:35:22.740 You know, it's like work
00:35:23.780 ethics went out the window,
00:35:25.060 and nobody's willing to
00:35:26.000 work.
00:35:26.560 Well, I tell you.
00:35:27.340 I don't have to go from
00:35:27.680 here by the time I'm my
00:35:28.740 parents' age.
00:35:29.620 Well, it's going to go way
00:35:31.820 before then.
00:35:33.820 This is what you get when
00:35:36.560 you have big government
00:35:37.340 handouts, but it's more
00:35:38.520 than that.
00:35:39.360 This, again, is something
00:35:40.780 that I talked about 10
00:35:42.200 years ago, and when I was
00:35:44.240 kind of standing alone
00:35:45.420 saying, I don't agree with
00:35:47.420 universal basic income, but
00:35:49.040 we have to discuss it,
00:35:50.420 because that's what's
00:35:51.980 coming.
00:35:52.880 Because of the tech
00:35:54.460 revolution, more and more
00:35:56.220 people are going to find
00:35:57.660 themselves unemployed.
00:35:59.920 And Yuval Harari, who is a
00:36:02.140 guy who everybody in the
00:36:04.040 elite class just loves,
00:36:06.140 calls them useless
00:36:08.560 people, what are we going
00:36:10.500 to do with all of these
00:36:12.120 useless people?
00:36:14.900 There's a lot of useless
00:36:16.280 people right now.
00:36:18.260 There's going to be more,
00:36:19.400 in the words of the
00:36:20.920 elites.
00:36:22.260 We cannot lose our work
00:36:24.620 ethic.
00:36:24.960 We have to be people
00:36:26.520 that think differently
00:36:30.360 and encourage our kids
00:36:33.980 and everybody else
00:36:34.860 to work, but it's an
00:36:37.480 uphill battle, because
00:36:39.020 society is not putting
00:36:40.540 any stock into that
00:36:42.720 now.
00:36:43.360 Derek in Colorado,
00:36:44.680 welcome to the Glenn Beck
00:36:45.480 program.
00:36:46.900 How are you doing, Glenn?
00:36:48.440 Good.
00:36:48.860 Hey, so I just wanted to
00:36:51.300 go back on your comments
00:36:53.100 you made earlier about
00:36:54.160 Ukraine and how we're
00:36:56.900 giving another half a
00:36:58.240 billion dollars to them
00:36:59.480 and we as the people
00:37:01.000 that they care about so
00:37:02.180 much have no right to
00:37:03.600 even vote on this.
00:37:05.240 Right.
00:37:05.420 And it's just giving it
00:37:06.680 away, giving it away.
00:37:07.960 And it's like, I guarantee
00:37:09.060 over 80% of Americans
00:37:12.320 would say no.
00:37:13.380 I agree too.
00:37:14.120 It is not our fight.
00:37:16.020 Um, and the fact that
00:37:18.340 we're weaponizing them
00:37:19.260 too.
00:37:19.620 What does that tell
00:37:20.180 in Russia?
00:37:20.740 What's it telling about
00:37:21.420 a Chinese spy balloon
00:37:22.800 flying over all of our
00:37:23.880 states, looking at our
00:37:24.760 military bases, telling
00:37:25.760 getting intel on what we
00:37:26.780 don't have and what we're
00:37:27.560 getting rid of.
00:37:28.300 The world is preparing
00:37:29.440 for war.
00:37:30.320 The American people are
00:37:31.520 asleep.
00:37:32.560 The world is preparing
00:37:34.000 for war.
00:37:35.340 And it's a war, not
00:37:36.780 just with Russia, but it
00:37:38.240 is becoming increasingly
00:37:39.900 a war with China as
00:37:42.420 well.
00:37:43.440 That's a war.
00:37:44.420 no one walks away
00:37:45.960 from unharmed.
00:37:47.680 Uh, that's a war we
00:37:48.720 do not walk away from,
00:37:50.280 uh, in any kind of
00:37:52.200 leadership role.
00:37:53.520 And, uh, you, if you
00:37:55.460 read the papers, this
00:37:56.820 is, this is why you,
00:37:58.540 you know, pay for me
00:37:59.640 with your time.
00:38:00.960 Uh, we read those
00:38:03.180 papers.
00:38:03.600 We look at the news all
00:38:05.020 around the world and
00:38:06.360 everyone in every, uh,
00:38:09.760 continent is preparing
00:38:11.780 for war and we're
00:38:13.980 asleep at the switch.
00:38:15.040 And the reason, the
00:38:17.160 reason why I think is
00:38:18.340 because the Democrats
00:38:19.660 have changed Congress
00:38:21.020 so much to where
00:38:22.380 there's really no
00:38:23.260 debate.
00:38:23.840 Do you remember the
00:38:24.660 lead up to the war in
00:38:26.580 Iraq, even the
00:38:27.540 Afghanistan war, every
00:38:29.540 war I've ever seen,
00:38:31.040 you have the debates
00:38:32.780 on the floor and they
00:38:34.540 call each other names
00:38:35.700 and you're not
00:38:36.360 patriotic and you're
00:38:37.500 patriotic and blah,
00:38:38.860 blah, blah.
00:38:39.260 You're a warmonger.
00:38:40.620 All of that used to
00:38:41.980 happen.
00:38:42.780 That's not happening
00:38:43.820 now.
00:38:45.240 You're not going to
00:38:46.260 Congress and talking
00:38:47.280 about all of this
00:38:48.180 stuff.
00:38:48.620 It's just being done by
00:38:50.560 the president and the
00:38:51.700 administration.
00:38:52.620 That's a dictatorship.
00:38:54.440 That's why you must
00:38:56.380 call your congressman
00:38:57.940 and senator and saying,
00:38:59.840 I will not send my
00:39:01.720 family to war.
00:39:03.100 I will not support
00:39:05.220 this.
00:39:05.680 I will not send my
00:39:08.080 children to fight a
00:39:09.280 war with Russia and
00:39:11.480 Ukraine and and
00:39:13.000 China.
00:39:13.560 I won't do it.
00:39:15.420 Not this war.
00:39:19.020 You got to call them
00:39:20.080 and tell them you
00:39:21.040 demand a debate on the
00:39:22.720 floor of the house,
00:39:23.520 at least for no other
00:39:25.640 money spent on this.
00:39:27.320 So that's a good step
00:39:28.140 because I think a lot of
00:39:28.960 the time we've been
00:39:30.480 talking about this has
00:39:31.340 been what we shouldn't
00:39:32.160 do.
00:39:32.740 And I wonder what we
00:39:34.520 should do.
00:39:35.400 What we should do is
00:39:36.220 pretty complicated,
00:39:37.240 right?
00:39:37.500 It's not easy, I think,
00:39:39.200 unless if you know,
00:39:40.180 especially now, because
00:39:41.380 what would you do here?
00:39:43.720 What would I do?
00:39:44.300 You would say I would
00:39:45.000 say debate.
00:39:45.740 That's a good step.
00:39:46.560 I would say to the
00:39:47.300 Ukraine, congratulations.
00:39:49.440 You've got enough money
00:39:50.540 from the United States
00:39:51.600 and enough support.
00:39:52.820 You are going to have
00:39:53.840 to stand on your own
00:39:55.080 now.
00:39:55.580 You're going to have to
00:39:56.200 do it.
00:39:56.620 You got to wear the big
00:39:57.620 boy pants.
00:39:58.200 This is not our fight.
00:39:59.640 We support you, but this
00:40:01.140 is not our fight.
00:40:02.220 So what does that look
00:40:02.680 like?
00:40:02.840 And I would also say
00:40:04.360 we are not for regime
00:40:06.620 change.
00:40:08.100 I mean, if Putin falls,
00:40:09.940 Putin falls, but that's
00:40:11.360 not the end game here.
00:40:12.900 We can say that.
00:40:14.540 Like, you know, as a
00:40:15.340 commentator, you say,
00:40:16.700 would I like Vladimir
00:40:17.540 Putin to not be at the
00:40:18.660 head of Russia?
00:40:19.860 Although I will say, I
00:40:21.640 mean, there's a big
00:40:22.080 profile in the New York
00:40:22.800 Times today about some
00:40:23.580 of the people who are
00:40:24.700 pushing him from the
00:40:26.640 hawkish side.
00:40:28.220 And if one of them get
00:40:29.280 in control, we might be
00:40:31.260 happy with Putin.
00:40:32.780 Yeah.
00:40:33.080 So we know here, but
00:40:35.060 like, you know, Putin is
00:40:36.100 Putin.
00:40:36.680 He's not good.
00:40:37.560 We don't like him.
00:40:38.480 Right.
00:40:38.640 That doesn't mean that we
00:40:39.540 should be publicly calling
00:40:40.700 for regime change.
00:40:41.680 He's an evil.
00:40:42.500 We know.
00:40:43.420 Right.
00:40:43.820 And there's value to
00:40:45.280 that.
00:40:45.580 Correct.
00:40:45.920 But OK, let's play this
00:40:47.080 out, though.
00:40:48.280 You you say you don't
00:40:50.320 want to give money to
00:40:51.480 Ukraine, weapons to
00:40:52.380 Ukraine anymore, which I
00:40:53.880 can sympathize with
00:40:55.100 significantly here.
00:40:56.440 But OK, let's say we
00:40:57.680 stop doing that.
00:40:58.540 Let's say we ramp it down
00:40:59.640 over the next, I don't
00:41:00.400 know, a couple of
00:41:00.840 months.
00:41:01.520 Right.
00:41:01.800 Goes away.
00:41:02.340 They've got zero
00:41:02.940 dollars coming in from
00:41:03.700 the United States.
00:41:04.600 Right.
00:41:05.380 Probably a lot of other
00:41:06.680 countries, you know,
00:41:08.620 follow our lead on that.
00:41:09.920 Right.
00:41:10.840 So what happens?
00:41:12.280 I mean, that's Ukraine
00:41:13.140 loses.
00:41:13.520 Right.
00:41:14.180 Probably Russia takes
00:41:15.260 Ukraine.
00:41:17.040 Probably.
00:41:17.720 Probably.
00:41:18.280 Right.
00:41:18.660 I mean, and I don't
00:41:19.780 even mean just the
00:41:20.720 eastern.
00:41:21.680 No, probably.
00:41:22.620 Probably the United
00:41:23.660 States withdraws.
00:41:25.060 Probably they win
00:41:26.560 Russia.
00:41:27.460 And that's a it's a
00:41:28.740 big thing, obviously
00:41:30.140 terrible for Ukraine.
00:41:31.460 But let's not even
00:41:32.080 think about you.
00:41:32.860 The future for Ukraine
00:41:33.780 for a second here.
00:41:34.940 Think about it from our
00:41:36.440 perspective.
00:41:36.840 So now you have Russia
00:41:38.020 who I think can
00:41:39.280 somewhat, somewhat
00:41:42.980 legitimately say they
00:41:44.320 defeated the United
00:41:45.060 States in a war.
00:41:46.240 Right.
00:41:46.800 Well, the Taliban have
00:41:48.500 said that.
00:41:49.020 So we're not breaking
00:41:50.240 new ground here.
00:41:51.240 No, that's true.
00:41:52.580 And so they now are
00:41:54.300 pressed up against the
00:41:55.580 borders of NATO.
00:41:56.380 Do we think that Putin
00:41:57.280 just stops there?
00:41:58.200 Is that our hope?
00:41:59.280 They just stop that
00:42:00.100 would be our hope.
00:42:01.740 But he hasn't acted
00:42:03.000 against a nation of
00:42:04.800 NATO.
00:42:05.380 Right now, if he goes
00:42:06.940 after NATO, then we
00:42:08.020 have treaties.
00:42:08.640 But I would like to
00:42:09.720 open up NATO as well.
00:42:12.020 I mean, we've provided
00:42:13.100 a lot of defense for
00:42:15.460 Europe and it has been
00:42:16.860 very important to do
00:42:18.100 so.
00:42:18.480 And I am not for, you
00:42:19.880 know, getting rid of
00:42:21.760 NATO, you know, just
00:42:23.560 wholesale.
00:42:24.960 However, the world is
00:42:26.840 changing and the United
00:42:28.040 States is changing and
00:42:29.820 Joe Biden is acting like
00:42:31.500 it's 1944.
00:42:32.500 And in his mind, it
00:42:34.060 might be 1944.
00:42:36.020 He is acting like we
00:42:37.860 have all of the power,
00:42:39.240 all of the clout and
00:42:40.400 all of the money.
00:42:41.520 We don't.
00:42:42.620 Couldn't you describe
00:42:43.180 what you're you're
00:42:44.520 talking about here is
00:42:45.120 just retreat.
00:42:45.700 I mean, we're letting
00:42:47.920 them have Ukraine with
00:42:49.400 no fight pushback.
00:42:50.400 Again, I'm pushing back
00:42:51.440 on you here for to
00:42:52.760 explore these boundaries
00:42:53.940 because they're difficult
00:42:54.620 to define.
00:42:55.580 But like if your your
00:42:57.460 answer here is is they
00:42:59.000 can have Ukraine and
00:43:01.080 maybe we shouldn't
00:43:02.220 really have NATO or
00:43:03.300 maybe we should reconsider
00:43:04.220 where NATO is and those
00:43:05.180 lines are and how much
00:43:05.980 we should be defending
00:43:06.600 these countries.
00:43:07.340 Where does where where
00:43:08.200 does Putin stop if
00:43:09.660 this is our defense?
00:43:11.300 No, I wouldn't say
00:43:12.260 that we were rethinking
00:43:13.640 about NATO as we
00:43:15.580 were doing this.
00:43:16.600 You wouldn't publicly
00:43:17.160 announce it, but you'd
00:43:18.140 say that you're saying
00:43:19.000 that that's something
00:43:19.520 that should be
00:43:20.000 considered.
00:43:20.460 Yeah, I wouldn't have
00:43:21.060 publicly announced any
00:43:22.080 of this.
00:43:22.640 No, I'm with you on
00:43:23.700 that.
00:43:23.940 I mean, none of this
00:43:24.860 should have been
00:43:25.460 publicly announced.
00:43:26.620 American tank.
00:43:28.260 You know, that's about
00:43:29.200 it should have been
00:43:29.860 confusing to the enemy
00:43:31.060 if they saw one.
00:43:32.080 Our president can't
00:43:33.160 be it can't be seen
00:43:34.920 in Ohio to help
00:43:37.520 people that are
00:43:38.280 victims, but he'll go
00:43:39.880 over and pledge that
00:43:41.820 we're going to pay for
00:43:43.180 all of their social
00:43:45.000 programs over in
00:43:46.180 Ukraine.
00:43:46.460 He's there today in
00:43:48.580 Ukraine, in Kiev.
00:43:50.820 What the what the
00:43:52.400 hell is that?
00:43:54.840 I'm just I'm sorry.
00:43:56.300 I don't care about our
00:43:57.960 good name in the world
00:43:59.260 anymore because we
00:43:59.880 don't have a good name.
00:44:01.020 We don't have a good
00:44:02.320 name anymore.
00:44:03.360 So people don't trust
00:44:04.880 us.
00:44:05.120 We have got to pull
00:44:07.420 back and protect
00:44:10.220 our country and
00:44:12.640 our rights or
00:44:14.320 we are just going
00:44:15.520 to just deflate
00:44:17.860 everything.
00:44:18.860 We're just bleeding
00:44:20.360 out all over the
00:44:21.620 table.
00:44:22.440 Should some
00:44:24.340 of our approach
00:44:25.980 here be related
00:44:27.300 to trying to
00:44:28.880 force Ukrainian
00:44:30.240 and Russian hands
00:44:31.740 into some sort of
00:44:33.480 yes, peaceful
00:44:34.360 solution?
00:44:34.880 Yes, it should be.
00:44:35.820 We don't because
00:44:36.740 Ukraine says we're
00:44:37.660 not going to negotiate
00:44:38.460 at all, even about
00:44:39.780 Crimea.
00:44:40.540 Well, and like I
00:44:41.300 understand that from
00:44:42.020 their perspective, but
00:44:42.720 if they want our money,
00:44:43.460 they may need to do
00:44:44.120 those.
00:44:44.440 That's probably the way
00:44:45.520 I would I would end
00:44:46.700 it.
00:44:46.960 Look, you guys get
00:44:48.060 together and you work
00:44:49.280 this out.
00:44:50.580 Otherwise, I'm pulling
00:44:51.680 I'm pulling the money
00:44:53.020 and Russia.
00:44:54.460 We're still going to
00:44:54.940 blockade you, but you
00:44:57.200 guys have to work this
00:44:58.360 out.
00:44:58.660 Putin would be
00:44:59.300 incentivized if the
00:45:00.500 United States were
00:45:01.840 bluffing or
00:45:04.020 and saying we are going
00:45:06.840 to stay there.
00:45:07.660 We're going to do it.
00:45:08.240 But we're going to
00:45:08.860 give this a chance
00:45:09.600 to work out and
00:45:10.780 we'll honestly broker
00:45:11.900 a deal that's going
00:45:12.820 to be good ish for
00:45:14.520 both sides.
00:45:16.540 That's the only way
00:45:17.360 to get out of it at
00:45:18.700 this point.
