The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ 8⧸23⧸24

00:00:00.000 Hey, on today's podcast, a few questions about the DNC.

00:00:04.900 Like, for instance, did you notice Kamala Harris didn't bring up anything that she has done in the last three years?

00:00:11.980 Any employer would go, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know you did that a long time ago, but what have you been doing the last three years?

00:00:18.320 She didn't bring that up. Why, I suppose.

00:00:21.500 Also, the news on RFK. Is he announcing he's going to join with Trump sometime today?

00:00:27.680 Find out on today's podcast.

00:01:44.400 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:01:49.140 I say hello and welcome to our executive producer, Mr. Stubergeer.

00:01:53.640 We were both up late last night.

00:01:55.120 You were up later than I was.

00:01:58.160 Yeah, it was a lot to talk about last night.

00:02:01.500 We had Blaze TV coverage.

00:02:02.940 It was a crazy night and a bizarre, bizarre moment in our history.

00:02:09.300 But Kamala Harris had her big speech. 1.00

00:02:11.400 Yeah, she did.

00:02:13.080 She did a lot to get that nomination, Glenn.

00:02:15.360 She kind of stood back and watched it all happen.

00:02:18.540 Yeah, she did.

00:02:19.640 She worked hard for it.

00:02:20.700 Not a single vote, but she worked hard for it.

00:02:23.680 I have to tell you, it was, you know, I just watched it.

00:02:29.860 My head just about exploded.

00:02:31.440 I had vivid dreams last night, you know, four hours of fitful sleep, and I'm ready.

00:02:38.680 Let's go.

00:02:39.840 The new normal is here.

00:02:41.820 Let's do it.

00:02:42.760 So, she accepted the nomination last night, and it was a beautiful moment.

00:02:52.220 Cut 29, please.

00:02:53.900 And so, on behalf of every American, regardless of party, race, gender, or the language your

00:03:10.720 grandmother speaks, on behalf of my mother and everyone who has ever set out on their own

00:03:21.120 unlikely journey, on behalf of Americans like the people I grew up with, people who work hard, chase

00:03:31.920 their dreams, and look out for one another, on behalf of everyone whose story could only

00:03:41.620 be written in the greatest nation on earth.

00:03:46.080 Oh, my.

00:03:46.560 So passionate.

00:03:47.260 Surely she believes that.

00:03:48.240 I accept your nomination to be president of the United States of America.

00:03:54.920 It's a loud crowd.

00:03:56.620 I mean, you got to give it to them.

00:03:57.680 It was quite the show.

00:03:59.260 No, it was quite the show.

00:04:00.560 She did a very good job.

00:04:02.040 It was a nice performance.

00:04:04.180 None of it was real.

00:04:05.380 None of it was really accurate.

00:04:07.140 I mean, I couldn't take when she said, you know, the greatest country in the world.

00:04:11.140 Excuse me?

00:04:13.260 Excuse me?

00:04:15.820 How could you possibly say that after the years of things that you've said, which were exactly

00:04:22.240 the opposite?

00:04:23.240 Yeah.

00:04:23.800 It was, there were times that I thought it could have been delivered by Ronald Reagan.

00:04:28.680 The policies that when she was, not even policies, the outline of, you know, we're low taxes.

00:04:39.580 We're, you know, we're for the family.

00:04:43.400 We're for all of, could have been Ronald Reagan.

00:04:45.940 We love our troops.

00:04:46.680 We are.

00:04:47.100 We're pro-military.

00:04:48.140 We're pro-police.

00:04:50.220 Oh, my gosh.

00:04:51.600 Who are these people?

00:04:52.640 I could not believe it.

00:04:54.160 I couldn't believe it.

00:04:55.300 And so, just a reminder before we go in, cut 31, please.

00:04:59.660 Let me just give you a little flashback.

00:05:01.840 Here's Kamala telling you the truth.

00:05:05.400 And yeah, I am radical.

00:05:07.540 I do believe that we need to get radical about what we are doing and take it seriously.

00:05:12.280 Right.

00:05:13.020 Okay.

00:05:13.660 All right.

00:05:14.080 So, she is radical. 0.59

00:05:17.920 Now, let me give you some of the things that she's radical on.

00:05:22.660 Uh, first, let's see here.

00:05:27.520 How about this one?

00:05:28.800 Cut 18.

00:05:30.800 Opportunity is not available to everyone.

00:05:34.380 That's why we will create what I call an opportunity economy.

00:05:39.480 An opportunity economy where everyone has the chance to compete and a chance to succeed.

00:05:47.700 Whether you live in a rural area, small town, or big city.

00:05:57.500 And as president, I will bring together labor and workers and small business owners and entrepreneurs

00:06:06.060 and American companies to create jobs, to grow our economy, and to lower the cost of everyday needs like health care and housing and groceries.

00:06:18.560 We will provide access to capital for small business owners and entrepreneurs and founders.

00:06:25.520 And we will end America's housing shortage.

00:06:32.560 Yeah.

00:06:34.280 Um, she's going to end America's housing shortage. 1.00

00:06:38.100 And one of the ways she's going to do that is to have the right to housing and health care. 1.00

00:06:47.800 Now, that was exciting.

00:06:49.860 Um, because I heard that the day before from our vice president, as I pointed out to you yesterday,

00:06:55.480 that was the exact language that is in the Soviet constitution.

00:07:01.620 You have a right to housing and health care.

00:07:05.820 And we all know how good that health care and housing really was in the Soviet Union.

00:07:10.800 When, when she talks about providing housing, um, that is not a right.

00:07:19.000 That is, that is an American dream, not a right. 0.73

00:07:22.180 But they're changing that when she talks about, I'm going to lower the cost of everyday items.

00:07:29.120 She's not talking about by increasing growth.

00:07:33.340 She's talking about price controls, something else that comes from communist nations.

00:07:39.680 It is extraordinarily dangerous.

00:07:42.740 Um, the, the lies that were told yesterday, but I'll get into those here in just a second.

00:07:48.620 Um, here she is.

00:07:50.100 Now, see if this doesn't sound like Lindsey Graham. 1.00

00:07:54.100 Cut 22.

00:07:56.540 As commander in chief, I will ensure America always has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world.

00:08:08.040 Neocon, neocon.

00:08:09.920 And I will fulfill our sacred obligation to care for our troops and their families.

00:08:17.780 And I will always honor and never disparage.

00:08:21.480 Stop.

00:08:22.240 Stop.

00:08:24.360 Stu.

00:08:25.200 Who's administration said, if you don't put this untested, uh, unknown experimental drug in your body, you had to be removed from the military.

00:08:41.760 Who was that?

00:08:43.000 Which administration?

00:08:43.940 I'm trying to remember.

00:08:44.980 There was a, a, a president.

00:08:46.880 Uh, I think his name was Biden.

00:08:48.700 Um, but I mean.

00:08:50.020 Who's his vice president?

00:08:51.720 That's, you know, history has lost that, unfortunately.

00:08:54.740 Yeah, it's weird.

00:08:55.680 It's a fact that no one knows these days.

00:08:57.840 Yeah, no one knows anymore.

00:08:59.720 That is just weird.

00:09:01.420 Don't talk to me about respecting our military when your administration won't even admit that anyone died in Afghanistan.

00:09:12.020 Don't talk to me about, uh, being strong and a leader of NATO and you would never leave your allies behind when you didn't even tell England we were leaving, just leaving Afghanistan, leaving them in the lurch. 0.53

00:09:29.560 Oh, it's, it's, it's so maddening.

00:09:31.640 All right, go ahead.

00:09:32.340 Finish.

00:09:32.620 And their families, and I will always honor and never disparage their service and their sacrifice.

00:09:47.780 This is a Democrat?

00:09:51.320 No, this is a show for the Reagan Democrats.

00:09:55.440 That we lead the world into the future on space and artificial intelligence, that America, not China, wins the competition for the 21st century, and that we strengthen, not abdicate our global leadership.

00:10:15.120 Trump, on the other side.

00:10:16.940 Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, that we don't advocate, uh, or abdicate our, uh, our global position as a leader.

00:10:28.800 That's America first. 0.98

00:10:31.320 Okay?

00:10:32.280 That's America first. 0.98

00:10:35.440 What are you talking about?

00:10:37.420 We're just another country, just like every other country, and we are just, you know, maybe it's time for the, the hegemony to end.

00:10:46.940 The Americans have been trying to lead the world for the rest. 0.74

00:10:51.100 Who are we to do that?

00:10:53.620 Oh, my gosh. 1.00

00:10:54.920 I just, I can't, I can't put into words how stupid you have to be to buy any of this. 1.00

00:11:05.220 This was an absolute show last night. 1.00

00:11:08.740 They are hoping that in the next 12 weeks, nobody gets a chance to ask her a question.

00:11:15.560 That she is on teleprompter the entire time. 1.00

00:11:19.720 Remember, six weeks ago, even the press thought she was an idiot. 1.00

00:11:25.700 Even the press thought that she was, uh, uh, horrible to her staff and a horrible person. 1.00

00:11:34.980 Now she's Mother Teresa.

00:11:37.320 Except Mother Teresa with nuclear armaments that are going to, she's going to be strong. 0.59

00:11:43.380 Now listen some more.

00:11:44.720 Trump, on the other hand, threatened to abandon NATO.

00:11:53.300 He encouraged Putin to invade our allies.

00:11:58.140 Said Russia could, quote, do whatever the hell they want.

00:12:03.720 Uh-huh.

00:12:04.160 Five days before Russia attacked Ukraine, I met with President Zelensky to warn him about Russia's plan to invade.

00:12:13.520 I helped mobilize a global response over 50...

00:12:17.020 Stop.

00:12:18.380 Stop.

00:12:19.240 Okay.

00:12:19.900 All right.

00:12:20.540 You got to go back a little bit because I want to make sure you mobilize.

00:12:23.800 I mobilize that is the next sentence I want to take apart.

00:12:27.000 So, five days before, she went and met personally with Vladimir, uh, uh, Zelensky to, to warn him of Russia's plans.

00:12:41.100 Everyone knew of Russia's plans.

00:12:44.280 Everyone knew.

00:12:46.340 This was not a hard thing to figure out.

00:12:48.480 When your administration was saying, oh, you know what?

00:12:53.080 We're going to let them into NATO.

00:12:54.820 We're going to let them into NATO.

00:12:55.860 We're going to let them into NATO.

00:12:57.460 And Russia's saying, the only thing we want is you not to let them into NATO.

00:13:02.480 We're going to let them into NATO.

00:13:03.980 It didn't take a genius to figure out what they were going to do.

00:13:09.180 Now listen to the rest of it.

00:13:13.300 Five days before Russia attacked Ukraine, I met with President Zelensky to warn him about Russia's plan to invade.

00:13:21.760 I helped mobilize a global response over 50 countries to defend against Putin's aggression.

00:13:29.320 Stop.

00:13:30.700 Now, Stu, what was different about this coalition that we had never, ever seen before?

00:13:38.940 Do you remember?

00:13:41.860 What was different about the coalition?

00:13:44.500 Uh-huh.

00:13:45.060 That we had never seen before.

00:13:46.840 Yeah.

00:13:47.280 You're going to have to remind me on that one.

00:13:49.180 Okay.

00:13:50.620 Do you remember McDonald's?

00:13:52.440 Yes.

00:13:55.320 All the big companies.

00:13:56.700 It was.

00:13:57.820 Yes.

00:13:58.520 Universal.

00:13:59.080 It was a coalition of countries.

00:14:02.220 And countries, when she put that coalition together, that's when gas prices went through the roof. 1.00

00:14:11.760 Okay.

00:14:12.260 Between them shutting off all of our pipelines and then saying, Russia can't buy, we can't buy any Russian oil, which never worked.

00:14:22.340 Because we're going to collapse their economy.

00:14:24.700 Oh, good.

00:14:25.340 Good.

00:14:25.980 Yeah.

00:14:26.420 Maybe somebody should try that.

00:14:27.740 Oh, they're doing it themselves with our economy.

00:14:30.480 Um, what, what was different about this coalition is when it came together, it involved the largest corporations in the world and McDonald's walked away from every asset they had in Russia.

00:14:46.140 They said at first, they can't be a part of the blockade.

00:14:50.640 They can't.

00:14:51.180 They have too much money, too many resources there, and they've worked too hard to grow McDonald's in Russia.

00:14:57.820 And then two days later, after the big banks and the Harris administration came in and put the screws to them, they were like, you know what, we're just going to walk away from all of those.

00:15:09.760 We're just going to walk away.

00:15:11.780 I'd love to know, Kamala, what those negotiations were like.

00:15:16.500 What did you promise McDonald's?

00:15:19.020 How did you get everyone on board?

00:15:22.520 How?

00:15:22.960 Through threats, intimidation, ESG, and the World Economic Forum.

00:15:30.960 That was the first time we saw what a global government could possibly do.

00:15:37.560 But I digress.

00:15:39.340 Last part.

00:15:40.860 Defend against Putin's aggression.

00:15:44.640 And as president, I will stand strong with Ukraine and our NATO allies.

00:15:50.940 Listen to that crowd.

00:15:56.040 I will stand strong with Ukraine.

00:15:59.240 Ukraine's not a popular thing.

00:16:02.000 But they cheered.

00:16:04.500 I'm reminded of the Star Wars line.

00:16:08.700 And this is the way democracy ends.

00:16:12.760 So Labor Day is just around the corner.

00:16:16.460 And you know what that means.

00:16:17.740 Barbecue.

00:16:18.620 Yeah.

00:16:19.320 Uh-huh.

00:17:23.960 Now back to the podcast.

00:17:26.080 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.

00:17:31.120 I don't know if you saw, but the teachers' union heads were speaking at the DNC.

00:17:39.220 Now, what's interesting about these people is they kept our schools closed.

00:17:45.720 They were the ones who fought to keep our schools closed.

00:17:50.740 And Weingarten said that Trump was an existential threat to democracy.

00:17:56.280 And she said the Trump administration, you know, closed schools. 0.96

00:18:06.280 And I don't know if she remembers, but she said Trump was reckless, callous, and cruel and wanted to kill old people and teachers by reopening the schools. 0.73

00:18:19.560 But that's not the thing anymore. 0.98

00:18:23.140 Also, on stage, so you know, Randy Weingarten is an absolute socialist, an absolute tyrant.

00:18:30.720 And we now have evidence of it because we've seen what they do.

00:18:35.240 Joining Weingarten on the stage was the National Education Association president, Becky Pringle.

00:18:41.120 Well, who could hate somebody named Becky, right?

00:18:43.860 That sounds normal.

00:18:45.820 Well, she said, Harris will strengthen our schools, support our educators, and help our students live into their brilliance.

00:18:54.920 I don't even know what that means.

00:18:56.380 But Donald Trump and J.D. Vance are not just wrong.

00:19:00.040 They're dangerous.

00:19:01.240 Now, dangerous to whom?

00:19:03.040 Dangerous to whom?

00:19:04.300 Perhaps to good old Becky and her plans?

00:19:07.340 She delivered an absolutely unhinged speech last month, and she said the public education needed to be transformed, I'm quoting,

00:19:20.900 into something that it never was designed to be, a radically, racially, and socially just and equitable system that prepares every student.

00:19:34.080 You know, I don't think we need that.

00:19:36.240 I think we need more math and reading, you know?

00:19:39.040 I think that would probably be, you know, really, really good.

00:19:43.600 So, they're the freedom party, and they're the party to make sure your kids are educated.

00:19:50.500 But educated in what?

00:19:53.000 The most important line that was said all last night, and it was said a few times with a few speakers,

00:19:59.480 we will not go back.

00:20:02.620 What do they mean by that?

00:20:03.780 Well, the teachers' unions will not go back to a time when they can't talk to your kids about gender.

00:20:10.800 They won't go back to a time where you can't have drag queen story hour.

00:20:16.100 They will not go back.

00:20:17.620 It's a new era in America.

00:20:19.720 It is the fundamental transformation of America, which has now been done, and they will not go back.

00:20:27.740 I think we should just, you know, keep that in mind.

00:20:32.660 Let me go to another Becky. 0.95

00:20:35.480 She's in Kansas.

00:20:37.480 Hello, Becky.

00:20:39.700 Hello.

00:20:40.480 I listen to you every day.

00:20:42.540 Thank you.

00:20:43.400 And I just have to tell you what I was thinking.

00:20:45.820 I watched last night with an open mind, and when she started railing against Trump, she is so divisive.

00:20:53.620 She's not a uniter.

00:20:55.160 How can she say that she wants to do something good for America when she rails against Trump? 0.96

00:21:01.080 She's railing against at least half the nation. 0.56

00:21:04.020 How can she say she loves America when she spouts so much hatred?

00:21:08.180 And I want to say something about that van that was sitting out front with the abortion, doing abortions and vasectomies. 1.00

00:21:16.140 I wrote this this morning, and I feel like God gave me this.

00:21:20.960 Before you have an abortion or a vasectomy, think about this.

00:21:26.480 The life that's been created is half you. 1.00

00:21:30.080 Would you want to kill yourself or have someone kill you?

00:21:33.500 What if it is your only chance to ever have a child? 0.66

00:21:36.500 Someone who would grow up and achieve the things you didn't or couldn't, and someone you could pass things on to.

00:21:43.460 What if the life that is being ended is the child who would grow up and develop the cure for cancer?

00:21:49.540 What if the life that is being ended is your grandchild?

00:21:53.040 Would you say, stop, don't do it?

00:21:55.740 Just being able to bring a life into the world is a gift.

00:21:59.840 That precious gift you created may even be your only chance to make your life count for something.

00:22:06.240 Don't pass it up.

00:22:08.600 Thank you so much, Becky.

00:22:10.200 I appreciate it.

00:22:11.380 Where do we go next, Sarah?

00:22:14.700 I've got such a small screen.

00:22:16.460 Yeah.

00:22:18.160 Go ahead.

00:22:18.840 Yeah, they're working through them here, Glenn.

00:22:20.940 But, you know, the answer to her question, like, how can she say this?

00:22:24.700 It's called lying.

00:22:27.880 That's how she says it.

00:22:29.080 She says she knows one thing is true, and she says the opposite of it with a cold lack of conscience.

00:22:37.180 That's what she does. 1.00

00:22:38.360 That's what you saw last night.

00:22:39.580 It's what you saw the entire four days, Glenn.

00:22:41.240 She, yesterday, the head of the ADL was walking into the convention and said,

00:22:53.680 I never thought I would see, after 50 years of fighting anti-Semitism in America,

00:23:00.160 I could not have imagined a time where Jews would have to meet in a secret location in Chicago at the DNC.

00:23:10.200 Foxman said he didn't see this coming.

00:23:13.500 Well, I know you didn't.

00:23:15.280 I know you didn't.

00:23:16.020 Because I told you this was coming.

00:23:18.460 And you said that I was a Nazi sympathizer.

00:23:21.300 You said that I was spreading propaganda and fear.

00:23:25.020 When I said 15 years ago, we're going to see the same kind of hatreds on our streets that we have seen back in the 1930s.

00:23:34.360 When I told you that was going to come from the Democratic Party, I think you called me an anti-Semite.

00:23:41.820 So who's your friend now, Abe?

00:23:45.120 Who's your friend now?

00:23:47.300 You surrounded yourself with people who despise Israel and really don't care for the Jews.

00:23:55.020 He said, I know in my heart that in the future, it will be better for Jews in America than it is today. 0.98

00:24:02.740 But I fear it will never be the same.

00:24:05.120 No, it won't be the same.

00:24:07.060 It won't be the same.

00:24:08.300 You know why?

00:24:09.140 Because we've let millions of people in from the Middle East that are trying to transform our country. 1.00

00:24:16.520 But, you know, hey, don't worry about it.

00:24:18.460 By the way, the uncommitted delegates, they camped outside the DNC, dozens of them.

00:24:25.400 They would not vote for Kamala Harris at the convention roll call.

00:24:30.060 And they kind of did a sit-in.

00:24:32.420 And you'll never guess what they were for.

00:24:34.680 Yeah, they wanted a Palestinian to speak and to speak on the main stage.

00:24:44.300 And the DNC wouldn't give it to them because that would expose who they are.

00:24:48.920 All of these people that they have empowered are working with the people that love Hamas and Hezbollah and hate Jews. 0.74

00:24:58.880 I mean, I don't know how this is so hard to get.

00:25:05.220 You know, they're doing vasectomies and they're passing out trans literature.

00:25:10.180 Do you think the Gazans and Hezbollah and Iran will be for that? 1.00

00:25:17.440 We've got to wake our neighbors up.

00:25:19.080 We've got to make sure they're at the poll.

00:25:22.580 Let me go to Florida and Alberto.

00:25:26.020 Hello, Alberto.

00:25:27.440 Alberto, how are you?

00:25:28.880 How are you going?

00:25:29.960 Very good.

00:25:30.760 Very good.

00:25:31.240 Thank you.

00:25:31.940 Thank you for everything that you do.

00:25:33.540 I will tell you that you need to read very carefully Romans chapter 1.

00:25:40.140 And we are living, as Paul wrote back then to the Romans, but of course that letter is always, you know, it obviously can be related today.

00:25:48.580 We are dealing with a group of people that do not respond to debate and normal conversations.

00:25:56.500 And it is because they have reprobate minds.

00:26:00.180 That is from the original Greek of the New Testament, reprobate minds. 1.00

00:26:05.660 Your Bible version may not use the word reprobate, but that is really the original Greek word, which means that it's a non-functioning mind.

00:26:13.740 You cannot get through to them unless the Lord himself does divine intervention.

00:26:19.620 It's just very clear.

00:26:20.720 This is basically evil having taken over individuals who can no longer see the light.

00:26:26.180 Romans chapter 1, I would start around verse 18 through to the end of the chapter.

00:26:37.160 And it talks about how it starts with homosexuality, and it goes into transsexuality, and then it goes into the reprobate mind in which basically the mind no longer functions.

00:26:50.700 Now, different Bible versions may not use reprobate, but that is, it basically means from the original Greek, it's a mind that no longer works unless there is divine intervention from the Lord himself.

00:27:02.660 Yeah, because of that, when they knew God, they glorified him, not as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

00:27:14.360 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of an uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things.

00:27:28.540 Wherefore, God also gave them up to uncleanliness through the lusts of their own heart to dishonor their own bodies between themselves, who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the creator, who is blessed forever. 0.92

00:27:45.960 Amen.

00:27:46.180 This is the cause God gave them up unto vile affections, for even their women did change the natural use into which is against nature. 0.99

00:27:58.960 And likewise, also the man, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned their lust toward one another, men with men, working that which is unseemingly, unseeming, yeah, unseemingly, and receiving themselves that recompense of their error which was met.

00:28:19.500 Boy, you're right, this is it.

00:28:21.060 They even did, as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to retrobate mine to do these things which are not convenient, being filled with all unrighteousness, fortification, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, and whisper.

00:28:41.160 Backbiters, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventor of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, unmerciful.

00:28:55.920 Boy, you are, you're right, that is the time we're living in right now. 0.56

00:29:01.460 Thank you so much.

00:29:02.280 Let me go to Roy in South Carolina.

00:29:04.380 Hello, Roy.

00:29:06.340 Hey, Glenn, good morning.

00:29:07.480 You know, she was spouting the things that basically the right is spouting, uniting America, stronger things, you know.

00:29:17.340 And so what will happen is, like Rush Limbaugh used to say, the low-in-permission voters cannot see through that.

00:29:27.420 And, you know, my biggest fear is that this is a shoo-in for her because of what she has spouted.

00:29:32.160 And so unless Trump can truly stay on task and on focus and be disciplined on the issues and not personalities, I don't think we have a chance to win this.

00:29:47.620 Well, I'm not going to, you know, count him out or count her out.

00:29:54.620 This is a fight, and it's going to be a very, very close fight.

00:29:57.420 I think you're right.

00:29:58.600 He does have to stay on message.

00:30:01.800 But, you know, if you look at what he has been saying recently, he's been very compassionate.

00:30:11.960 He's been very clear on what he's for.

00:30:16.120 But you're right.

00:30:17.340 She's saying she's for all the same things.

00:30:20.440 So if you are a low-information voter, you don't really pay attention at all, you think all of this stuff is true.

00:30:28.600 Or if you're a high-information voter, but your information all comes from the left-wing media, it all comes from mainstream.

00:30:37.980 If it's coming from the mainstream media, you're not hearing stories that you need to know about.

00:30:42.940 They're keeping things from you, so you can cheer when they say we're going into Ukraine, and we're going to stand by them until the very end, and the cheers grow louder.

00:30:59.500 Let's see.

00:31:00.920 888-727-BECK.

00:31:03.520 Did they burn the vasectomy van, Stu?

00:31:07.300 I don't know, Glenn.

00:31:09.220 I'm very distraught.

00:31:11.240 It was such a wonderful place to alter your body at the convention.

00:31:17.320 Now, was the vasectomy van and the abortion hut the same?

00:31:21.840 Was this the same vehicle?

00:31:24.060 I'm not sure.

00:31:25.360 I don't know if they were using the same rusty tools.

00:31:29.340 But, you know, because I like to get all my surgeries done in the back of a food truck.

00:31:34.540 Yep.

00:31:34.740 But, you know, I think that's really nice.

00:31:37.520 Well, the best abortions come along with a grilled cheese. 1.00

00:31:40.620 So, I think, yeah, you can get them right off the side of a truck.

00:31:43.860 All right.

00:31:44.360 Yeah, that's, you know.

00:31:46.000 I think there's a little too much pessimism here.

00:31:48.200 And let me call this out a little bit, because I understand where the previous caller is.

00:31:53.300 And I think there is something to be said for it.

00:31:56.280 If she's coming in with a new approach, Donald Trump had a, you know, a war machine designed to defeat an enemy called Joe Biden.

00:32:06.000 And he has to switch gears here.

00:32:07.720 He has to find a completely different gear.

00:32:09.840 If he can't do that, he will lose.

00:32:12.460 I think that is true.

00:32:13.560 If he can't figure out a way to push her off of her spots and take her out of her comfort zones, he probably will lose.

00:32:20.900 But this is his job.

00:32:22.620 And honestly, with Trump being a somewhat unique candidate, in a way, it's the campaign's job.

00:32:29.060 We all know what Donald Trump does.

00:32:30.460 He does some things really, really well, some things not so well.

00:32:33.240 I think if you're depending on Donald Trump to be on message for 10 straight weeks, you're probably in some trouble.

00:32:39.900 Donald Trump is going to have some days where he's excellent and stays on message, some days where he's off his message and he's going on other things.

00:32:46.860 That's part of what you have with Donald Trump, really high highs and really low lows at times.

00:32:52.020 But the campaign does have to figure out a way to essentially shame the media into making these off-the-cuff moments happen.

00:33:02.660 And it's not going to be easy, but it is, as an opposing campaign, their job.

00:33:08.600 And they've got to figure it out.

00:33:10.520 And I would assume they have a plan.

00:33:12.500 I think it partially starts today with the RFK Jr. speech.

00:33:15.720 I mean, I think that's step one.

00:33:17.320 I think that's a really big thing.

00:33:19.220 I think it's a really big thing.

00:33:20.020 In a race this close, I think it is.

00:33:22.060 Yeah.

00:33:23.220 And especially all of the independents that are very, very left are calling out the Democratic Party and saying the people who say they love democracy, they're kicking us off the ballots everywhere.

00:33:35.920 They're filing lawsuits to keep us out of the race.

00:33:39.660 I mean, that's what dictators do. 1.00

00:33:43.400 They arrest the people that they can't stop, and they just make sure that you can't get on a ballot if you do run.

00:33:55.400 It's remarkable.

00:33:57.440 It's Iran. 0.91

00:33:58.980 It's Russia. 0.81

00:34:00.140 It's the way it's always worked for dictatorships.

00:34:02.900 Let me just give you a little bit of perspective here on what happened, especially last night.

00:34:14.500 First of all, did you hear the rumors that, like, everybody, including George W. Bush, was going to show up and speak last night?

00:34:21.600 Now, where did those rumors come from?

00:34:25.600 Why was Taylor Swift rumored to be there?

00:34:27.980 Why was Beyonce rumored to be there?

00:34:30.220 George W. Bush rumored to be there?

00:34:32.860 Well, because it drives eyeballs. 0.98

00:34:35.780 Where do you think those rumors came from?

00:34:39.000 The people who wanted Americans to watch.

00:34:42.440 Okay.

00:34:43.160 So you're being manipulated again by these people yesterday.

00:34:47.720 But so who showed up this week?

00:34:50.080 Well, the, you know, usual household names.

00:34:53.320 It really is just the usual.

00:34:56.500 Oprah Winfrey, Steph Curry, John Legend, Eva Longoria, the ever-lovable Mark Hamill, Octavia Spencer, Spike Lee, Kerry Washington, and Little John.

00:35:11.660 Also, Mandy Patinkin was there.

00:35:14.340 Still looking for that six-fingered man.

00:35:17.380 Uh, Rosario Dawson was there. 1.00

00:35:21.440 Fat Joe, Cheryl Lee Ralph, uh, Tony Goldwyn, Wendell Pierce, and Sean Austin, otherwise known as Samwise Gamgee.

00:35:33.420 Now, did we have that many celebrities, uh, at the RNC? 0.74

00:35:38.780 No.

00:35:40.400 Is this really, I mean, you didn't expect Oprah Winfrey?

00:35:44.280 You didn't expect Mark Hamill, uh, John Lennon.

00:35:48.920 We know who these people are.

00:35:50.840 We know who they are.

00:35:52.720 Okay?

00:35:53.340 Now, let's look at, uh, the RNC.

00:35:56.980 The household names.

00:35:58.380 Kid Rock.

00:35:59.800 Russell Brand.

00:36:02.000 New name.

00:36:03.060 New name.

00:36:04.480 Dana White.

00:36:06.300 Hulk Hogan.

00:36:07.660 Jason Aldean.

00:36:09.400 And, of course, you had Lee Greenwood, who, uh, and then Chris Jansen, a country music singer.

00:36:14.660 And Savannah Chrisley, a reality TV star.

00:36:18.040 Okay.

00:36:19.140 So, we had less celebrities.

00:36:22.040 Uh, and the assumption is the culture makers are all on the left.

00:36:26.620 And, of course, Hollywood was all in for the Democratic Party.

00:36:30.560 But if that's the case, where was Taylor Swift?

00:36:36.000 Where was Billie Eilish? 1.00

00:36:38.840 Where was Beyonce?

00:36:40.440 She was rumored to be there.

00:36:43.660 Did you hear how she responded to that rumor?

00:36:46.500 She didn't say, oh, no, I would have loved to be there, but I couldn't.

00:36:50.200 She said, I was never going to be there.

00:36:53.700 That seems a little hostile.

00:37:00.560 Especially when you realize it costs Democrats nothing.

00:37:04.620 Celebrities to join the Democrats, it costs them nothing.

00:37:08.400 It actually helps them in their world.

00:37:11.860 And celebrities showing up to the Republicans, it costs them everything.

00:37:17.700 Everything.

00:37:19.580 Russell Brand has doubled down.

00:37:23.880 So, it's a miracle that the RNC had as many celebrities as it did.

00:37:28.620 And it's also strange that the DNC didn't pull out more A-listers.

00:37:34.100 So, culturally, the DNC underperformed and the RNC overperformed in terms of expectations.

00:37:43.400 So, what does all of this mean?

00:37:46.800 The DNC, the celebrities that were there, were mostly the establishment culture makers.

00:37:52.940 The only one you were missing that you would expect is George Clooney.

00:37:56.480 You know, they're all, they're the same people, okay?

00:37:58.860 They have forever and relentlessly been DNC culture makers, okay?

00:38:10.020 But I take Dana White over Mark Hamill every day of the week.

00:38:18.580 It's tiny.

00:38:20.240 It is tiny.

00:38:21.940 But I feel the wind shifting.

00:38:26.000 Something is happening.

00:38:27.680 They've overplayed their hand for too long.

00:38:32.140 People, when you have RFK and his very, very, very, very liberal vice president saying,

00:38:43.560 we're going over to Trump.

00:38:45.360 And they get pounded for it on social media.

00:38:48.780 And they say, don't talk to me about that.

00:38:51.400 These people are currently suing us to keep us out of the race. 0.96

00:38:56.500 The people who care about democracy are suing us.

00:39:01.280 You have the Green Party saying the same thing.

00:39:06.640 Somebody I never, ever, ever, ever, ever thought I would want to interview

00:39:12.220 or would want to come on the show to interview

00:39:15.260 is RFK's running mate.

00:39:19.760 I found out this morning she's been trying to get on the show for a couple of days. 0.96

00:39:27.720 I said, absolutely put her on the show.

00:39:30.160 I'd love to talk to her.

00:39:31.900 We don't have a lot in common.

00:39:33.360 But do you see how it's breaking down?

00:39:35.640 Then the thinking people, the thinking people are all starting to say, yeah, yeah, yeah, 0.98

00:39:44.420 I know about Donald Trump, but I'm not buying into your bull crap anymore on who you are 0.96

00:39:51.440 because at least he tells us who he is. 0.97

00:39:55.840 You're not telling us who you are.

00:39:58.040 You're doing all of the things that you're accusing him of doing.

00:40:03.020 You know, he could, this was last night, he could weaponize the Department of Justice.

00:40:09.160 No!

00:40:10.640 Well, I can't imagine that happening in America.

00:40:14.940 He's not going to do that.

00:40:16.760 You're doing that.

00:40:19.020 There's a change.

00:40:20.580 There is a change.

00:40:22.240 We just cannot give up hope.

00:40:25.260 We cannot give in.

00:40:28.340 Fight, fight, fight.

00:40:31.220 Steve in Ohio, you're on the Glenn Beck program.

00:40:35.500 I'm calling about the Kamala's talk on the children and parents' rights not being able to be involved in their gender assignment.

00:40:45.140 Uh-huh.

00:40:46.660 Yeah, it drives me crazy.

00:40:48.800 You know, I raised two boys, and as teenagers, they didn't know what they wanted for breakfast half the time,

00:40:53.980 much less make decisions that affect their life for the rest of their lives.

00:40:58.020 It just drives me crazy.

00:41:00.740 Yeah, but remember, as she said last night,

00:41:04.820 she is for the freedom for each individual to make decisions in their own life.

00:41:13.040 Now, that doesn't include parents when, like you said, kids don't know, you know, a lot of kids, you're like, no, don't, no, no.

00:41:23.140 You can't wear boots and a swimming suit.

00:41:25.160 But yet they can decide their long-term future of never being able to have children again.

00:41:32.600 I got news for you.

00:41:33.540 When I was 16, I never wanted children.

00:41:37.280 I didn't want children.

00:41:38.180 I didn't want children when I was, you know, 20.

00:41:41.820 Then I started having children, and I love it.

00:41:45.260 And now that I'm 60, I wish I would have had more.

00:41:48.840 You can't make a decision when you're 12 about having children.

00:41:54.000 Thank you so much.

00:41:54.960 I appreciate it.

00:41:55.700 By the way, do you notice that they're running the same campaign that they did last time, a return to normalcy?

00:42:03.980 That's what they said Joe Biden was.

00:42:07.000 And then Joe Biden put a radical as his underticket.

00:42:12.180 Okay?

00:42:13.000 Now that radical is trying to tell you she's normal, and she puts somebody who's even more radical under her.

00:42:23.040 This is the Overton window.

00:42:25.700 Let me go to Al in Florida.

00:42:27.460 Hello, Al.

00:42:29.020 Hello, Glenn.

00:42:29.840 How are you?

00:42:31.120 I'm great.

00:42:32.420 Good, good.

00:42:33.220 And I have to tell you, Glenn, just for a minute, I go to several people to decipher the news of the day and to give me a context, and you are at the very top of the list.

00:42:42.900 So I really appreciate what you do and what you guys go through.

00:42:46.400 It's very kind.

00:42:47.260 Yeah.

00:42:47.980 It's very kind.

00:42:48.960 We do it prayerfully, and we do it with you in mind.

00:42:53.460 So thank you.

00:42:54.120 And you do, my friend.

00:42:55.800 You really do.

00:42:57.120 Last night, I was concerned.

00:42:59.500 Not frightened, not shaken, but concerned.

00:43:02.400 Because what I saw was an unintelligent, dishonest, disingenuous, completely misguided and unsympathetic, power-hungry communist manage a coaching and even motivational teleprompter speech given a similarly misguided audience.

00:43:22.580 But it was delivered impressively.

00:43:26.080 The only thing that I have to say, Glenn, is vigilance because we have to remember the context.

00:43:34.800 She's giving this speech in contrast to, forgive me, a demented fossil, someone who is just cognitively impaired.

00:43:43.520 So we're used to Joe Biden.

00:43:46.620 And then someone can string words together, and all of a sudden, they're Winston Churchill.

00:43:55.140 I mean, I did this from the beginning.

00:43:57.600 I don't want to be self-serving, but I wrote.

00:43:59.660 I'm a singer-songwriter.

00:44:01.120 I wrote the original song, Bidenomics.

00:44:04.140 It's out there.

00:44:04.980 It's on the screen.

00:44:05.520 I wrote the song.

00:44:07.460 And it's a country two-stop.

00:44:08.880 It's fun.

00:44:09.220 I'm not saying it to promote anything, so forgive me.

00:44:11.780 But this was years ago.

00:44:13.480 I saw this coming, and it has everything in it, from Iran to Carrie Lake.

00:44:17.640 And it's just, you know, we know their lies, Glenn.

00:44:20.720 We know it.

00:44:21.420 We see it.

00:44:22.100 We're informed.

00:44:23.360 But, you know, snake all the time and have a way of, you know, impressing upon the impressionable.

00:44:29.720 And that's my concern.

00:44:31.300 And that's my call, I think, for this more than anything.

00:44:33.840 Thank you very much.

00:44:34.660 I really appreciate it.

00:44:35.920 I have to tell you, I want to give credit where credit is due.

00:44:38.720 They will never do this for us.

00:44:40.220 But that was an impressive speech last night.

00:44:42.500 It was written, I think, by Ronald Reagan.

00:44:46.160 It wasn't written by a Democrat, surely.

00:44:48.620 Or it was written, and they were like, let's put this in.

00:44:53.940 But she delivered it very, very well.

00:45:00.120 Okay, we know she can read.

00:45:01.620 We know she can read and say those things out loud and sound like they're genuine.

00:45:10.680 But she cannot do that when it's not written for her.

00:45:14.300 And that will be Donald Trump's job and, quite honestly, the press's job to get her to sit down for several interviews.

00:45:23.360 She has multiple questions to ask, like, what are your policies?

00:45:30.580 What are your policies?

00:45:32.660 Their platform talked like seven times about, in Joe Biden's second term, you didn't even take time to change that.

00:45:40.380 It was incredible.

00:45:41.380 It was like I was reading John Roberts' decision on Obamacare.

00:45:46.820 Except they had time to change it.

00:45:50.060 He didn't.

00:45:51.380 Na, na, na, na.
