00:01:39.240
well stew thank you so much for filling in for me yesterday uh it uh i had horrible allergies uh
00:01:50.740
last week and they turned into something with my vocal cords and i've got the weeniest vocal
00:01:56.740
cords in the world uh and um i took a couple of days off and i feel much better today so thank you
00:02:03.280
for that yeah welcome back thank you uh boy there's a lot you missed what oh i know and we've got a lot
00:02:09.920
on the plate and i just i want to start with this and i don't want to make this self-serving i want to
00:02:15.040
make sure that this is understood that we are we are um making sure that everyone understands
00:02:23.180
basic terminology basic systems of government and you can come out with the absolute facts
00:02:33.600
and you decide which is which okay uh the washington post came out yesterday with a story glenbeck
00:02:41.540
is resurrecting rhetoric that is long falsely targeted democratic presidents uh this is
00:02:48.880
strangely after what 12 weeks out 15 weeks out the book on uh the great reset the washington post
00:02:58.380
has decided to not do a book review because it's pretty clear the guy didn't read the book
00:03:02.320
um but it's not a book review it's instead an attack on me again calling me father coglin which i
00:03:10.520
oh if anybody but you progressives knew who he was it would be so effective but only you guys know
00:03:19.060
who he is because you gave birth to him anyway um the washington post says according to the right
00:03:25.680
wing commentator glenbeck president biden is a fascist in his latest book beck and co-author
00:03:32.320
justin haskins warned that biden is aligned with a cabal of international elites plotting to create a
00:03:39.180
new kind of fascism that resembles nazi era controls on businesses in germany how is biden promoting
00:03:47.840
this takeover as far as beck and haskins are concerned it's through his build back better economic plan
00:03:55.440
isn't that ridiculous those are just efforts to combat climate change and coronavirus mask and vaccine
00:04:03.240
mandates is that what the build back better plan is because i think the people you know maybe all
00:04:13.580
around the world involved in the economic forum let's say the prime minister of japan who also ran on his
00:04:22.080
build back better plan or the build back better plan that boris johnson ran on
00:04:29.820
i don't think it's about mask mandates but maybe that's just me this alleged plot no it's not an
00:04:39.660
alleged plot it's right there if you read the book you'd see the about 50 page of fine print
00:04:45.180
footnotes quoting them you're not having to look at a conspiracy theory anything i'm just quoting
00:04:52.720
whitehouse.gov treasury.gov w-e-l w-e-f.org that that's all i'm doing so it's not really my theory
00:05:02.760
anyway it would uh the alleged plot would probably surprise biden biden is surprised every day he still
00:05:12.600
wakes up uh his support for labor unions increase corporate taxes and higher minimum wage are widely
00:05:21.340
opposed by the very same bankers and big businesses that beck and haskins assert are backing the fascist
00:05:27.680
scheme this guy has this guy is living in 1972 he has no idea what's happening in the current business
00:05:36.240
world or he's just he's either a useful idiot or he's a propagandist uh even if beck claims don't make
00:05:45.420
sense they don't make sense how do they not make sense that's weird you know it doesn't make sense
00:05:53.100
that it's the number one best-selling book in the nation has been for weeks and yet i'm 15 on the new
00:05:59.980
york times bestseller list that doesn't make sense the fox news host is the sixth most popular talk radio show
00:06:09.120
in the country wow actually i think i'm 15th in the new york times and i believe i'm 12th in talk radio
00:06:19.260
uh blah blah blah blah equally important beck is tapping into deep historical vein of conservative
00:06:26.600
thinking right-wing media used remarkably similar and sometimes even harsher rhetoric against franklin
00:06:34.660
delano roosevelt in the 1930s conservative commentators frequently compared roosevelt
00:06:40.560
to the tyrannical adolf hitler benito mussolini and joseph stalin who were terrorizing their countries
00:06:47.260
and menacing the world during his pregnant uh presidency first of all you wouldn't know that
00:06:53.340
joseph stalin was terrorizing his people because the new york times was covering up all of the atrocities
00:07:00.020
the new york times was saying that stalin was great time magazine mussolini he's great
00:07:08.100
so before we move on let's figure out what fascism actually means now from uh miriam webster
00:07:21.040
uh you have a political philosophy a movement or regime such as that as the fascisti
00:07:29.280
uh that exalts nation and often race above the individual and stands for centralized autocratic
00:07:36.380
government headed by a dictatorial leader severe economic and social regimentation
00:07:42.960
and forcible suppression of opposition okay who's suppressing the opposition
00:07:52.260
who's the one calling parents who stand up and say i don't think this should be taught
00:07:59.820
who's the one defining them as terrorists who's the one that says now i love pesos what a joke
00:08:09.440
by the way have you seen his new building in virginia the the new it's again phallic shaped i don't know
00:08:16.620
what the deal is with this guy but it's more like a pig uh it's a like a anyway um so i don't know
00:08:25.840
what it is about these guys where they seem to miss in fact just yesterday do we have uh jen saki
00:08:33.140
on um on twitter and how we really should are we gonna still talk to these people are we still
00:08:42.340
gonna make lists of who should be banned and not listen the surgeon general has said that
00:08:47.200
misinformation about covet amounts to a public health crisis yeah i'm wondering regardless of
00:08:52.940
ownership would the white house be interested in working with twitter like it has in the past
00:08:58.260
to continue to combat this kind of misinformation um or are we in a different part of the pandemic
00:09:04.640
where that kind of partnership is no longer necessary well i think we engage regularly with all
00:09:10.360
social media platforms about steps that can be taken that has continued and i'm sure it will
00:09:14.900
continue uh but there are also reform stop what is she saying what is she saying we contact
00:09:22.180
social media regularly and they have said it in the past to give them lists of names of people that
00:09:30.560
should not be taken seriously and maybe the algorithm should be changed by the way stew did you
00:09:36.440
see i gained a hundred thousand followers on twitter just last night isn't that crazy isn't that nuts
00:09:43.820
no i did not see that yeah wow yeah people all over the country conservatives are finding
00:09:49.820
that their twitter numbers just went up overnight huh it's really weird anyway fascists believe now this
00:09:57.640
is according to wikipedia now tell me this is wikipedia remember run by marxists okay this is wikipedia
00:10:05.820
help me out stew on what you think maybe uh the washington post is missing here
00:10:14.380
uh fascists believe that liberal democracy let me define that liberal uh democracy means people who
00:10:24.080
believe in the maximum amount of freedom before anarchy okay it's not like liberal in our current
00:10:32.360
political sense that was fdr that changed that okay he changed it to get rid of the constitutional
00:10:39.800
argument so a liberal democracy is what i believe in okay um the fascists believe that a liberal democracy
00:10:50.080
is obsolete now which side is it that says ah that's an old dusty document the founders you know are
00:11:00.220
irrelevant all of the constitution is irrelevant who is that second sentence they regard the complete
00:11:09.280
listen to this they regard the complete mobilization of society under a totalitarian one party state
00:11:17.880
as necessary to prepare a nation for armed conflict and to respond effectively to economic difficulties
00:11:26.960
now how many times have you heard them say global warming this is a war how many times have you heard the
00:11:38.260
biden administration say about the great reset that this is going to be a war that lasts for decades
00:11:47.220
why is he saying that because he needs to let's see complete mobilization of society
00:11:56.700
under a totalitarian one party state does anybody doubt does anybody doubt that the fascists
00:12:05.880
or i should say the progressives in either party wouldn't mind offing the other party and just say
00:12:13.200
yeah it's all republicans and all democrats you'd have a few republicans but you'd have the majority
00:12:20.760
of the democrats you'd certainly have aoc and bernie and everybody else okay uh they also say a fascist
00:12:30.340
state is led by a strong leader okay they got me there okay uh and martial law government composed of
00:12:37.120
the members of the governing fascist party to forge national unity and maintain a stable and orderly society
00:12:44.580
i would say that that's what happened during covid uh fascism rejects assertions that violence
00:12:57.360
huh and that weird like violence on january 6th was negative but violence for blm
00:13:07.760
was not negative they view political violence and war as a means that can achieve national rejuvenation
00:13:17.600
hmm mark my words that's going to become very important this fall it might even happen after the
00:13:27.380
supreme court issues all of its rulings they are going to go bat crap crazy and i believe they're going
00:13:35.140
to just try to burn this whole thing down they also advocate a national economic self-efficiency
00:13:42.420
through protectionist and economic interventionist policies what have you been hearing lately
00:13:49.920
the lie from them this global thing is not working we've got a we've got a really come back to our
00:13:57.980
nation i mean i'm saying that for common sense but what they're saying is that's why we have to
00:14:04.640
globalize even more through the great reset they're using the terminology but they're saying but we're gonna
00:14:12.220
we're gonna globalize even more we're just gonna cut half the globe out
00:14:15.560
um they uh the extreme authoritarianism and nationalism often manifests a belief in racial purity
00:14:26.680
or a master race now i think the fascist that's why the book says 21st century fascism not 20th century
00:14:40.240
because the fascists then were saying jews and by the way fascism doesn't always include race
00:14:49.600
doesn't it often leads to that because people are generally evil that want to rule everybody's lives
00:14:58.460
um and generally nuts and so they have to get rid of people and so they just get rid of more and more
00:15:05.360
people anyway you don't have to do that but it also depends on who the fascist is
00:15:12.560
that generally comes from a socialist standpoint you know marxism hatred of the jews kind of goes
00:15:27.140
hand in glove but mussolini didn't mussolini didn't hate the jews in fact he really really uh despised
00:15:35.940
hitler for that and you know what's weird is it's almost let me read this again uh the extreme
00:15:43.460
authoritarianism and nationalism of fascism often manifest in a belief of racial purity and a master
00:15:49.580
race kind of like white people are bad no matter what they do and black people or people of color
00:15:58.880
are good no matter what they do so we've lost all reason and we've lost martin luther king's idea
00:16:08.940
of race doesn't matter who's pushing that race matters and that there's a bad race who's pushing that
00:16:21.060
is that the left or is that the right hmm also fascist regimes have been led to commit genocides massacres
00:16:35.340
forced sterilization who was that the left or the right was that the liberal democratic person or was
00:16:45.240
that the progressive that did the i don't know what you're missing washington post other than logic
00:16:54.840
facts history but it's good to know that i must be getting under your skin i must have for you to get
00:17:05.180
a call to say hey would you write something on this book uh for you to get that call from i don't know
00:17:10.460

00:17:36.480
you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program
00:17:42.980
i know what you're thinking glenn you seem more confident today yes well my friends that started
00:17:56.940

00:18:03.960
the sweat block wipes are applied at night and protect you from embarrassing or uncomfortable
00:18:08.900

block also try the deodorant stick best i've ever tried get it all today 20 off sweatblock.com promo
00:18:50.460
code beck or at amazon all right so stew i need you to stay with me here um because this is this is
00:18:57.120
probably a story that no one is paying attention to and i think it's really important japan said that
00:19:05.920
they would be the first great reset full adopter okay and that made me curious a few months ago when
00:19:15.440
i found that out i'm like hmm why well i now know why they are in serious serious financial straits
00:19:22.880
they have been for a while this is this is not a new problem this has been going on the decline of japan
00:19:29.240
since the 90s well i read a story um what was it thursday or friday that the japanese yen
00:19:37.060
has fallen to its lowest level against the dollar in more than 20 years
00:19:42.580
this means it takes more yen to buy a dollar as of friday the 22nd it was more than 125 yen
00:19:53.240
to buy a dollar normally only people who are like trading in currencies actually care about this
00:20:00.520
but the why behind the crash is why you need to care okay because it could very easily lead
00:20:12.520
to the crash of our treasury bonds and let me explain how a treasury bond our debt
00:20:19.580
we issue treasury bonds every time our government spends money and we have trillions of these out
00:20:28.580
and nobody is buying them okay the days of us living high on the hog and ah somebody will take this
00:20:36.060
crap those days are over okay the the japanese are the largest holder of u.s treasury bonds in the world
00:20:45.620
they hold more than china more than any european country more than any other entity except the u.s
00:20:55.000
federal reserve why does the u.s federal reserve own so many treasury bonds they never did that
00:21:01.960
before they had to start do it doing it because no one in the world would would raise their hand in
00:21:09.960
auction and say i'll take some of that american crap okay so no one was buying it so the fed put
00:21:17.400
trillions of dollars of our debt and they bought that debt by printing money okay japan is number two
00:21:27.600
japan holds two trillion dollars of our debt now the story that i read on thursday or friday was that
00:21:37.500
the prime minister had called janet yellen and called the president and said we need a bailout
00:21:43.440
you you got to help us out you you have to shore up the yen or we are done well uh we didn't do that
00:21:53.760
we said we can't do that and there's a couple of reasons why we can't so with them being the largest
00:22:03.380
holder they've been they are um they're playing a game here it's a shell game the whole world is on
00:22:10.060
this shell game they have two trillion dollars in treasuries and they're forced to sell those bonds
00:22:16.900
to shore up their currency this would cause our fed to print more money to put bill or trillions into
00:22:28.340
buying those bonds which would now be on the market so inflation could go to 20 percent
00:22:34.420
that's the story you'll hear if you pay attention to bloomberg but that's that's just a small part
00:22:42.020
of what's going on we know that japan has the worst demographics in the world it's the oldest
00:22:50.620
population in the developed world 3.4 retirees over the age of 55 for every one worker under the age of
00:22:59.600
30 so that one worker is expected to work to support 3.4 people nobody's entering the workforce if
00:23:10.600
you're young you're not going into the marketplace the japanese stopped having kids after the asian
00:23:16.520
miracle ended in 99 and japan's economy crashed remember the stories where they can't get guys to
00:23:22.560
be even interested in sex consider this toyota and honda the two best made best-selling brands
00:23:30.700
in the world right testaments to japanese ingenuity and manufacturing except the japanese demographics are
00:23:38.540
so upside down virtually no hondas or toyotas are actually made in japan anymore more than a decade ago
00:23:47.120
both companies realized they couldn't find any workers and that's why they're here in the u.s
00:23:52.740
indonesia and the philippines these companies were not alone in the past 20 years japan has lost
00:24:01.220
almost its entire manufacturing base does any of this sound familiar
00:24:07.540
save a few technology sectors like motherboards and microchips microchips everything else is not made
00:24:17.500
in japan this means their taxable income is gone and as they move overseas where labor is available
00:24:26.640
and costs were lower some of the profits flow home to japan but most of the revenue generated stays
00:24:32.420
in countries where manufacturing is occurring so they had to make up the shortfall what do you do
00:24:38.500
they had a plan they started selling more and more japanese bonds to cover their deficits
00:24:47.160
between the massive welfare state and the tax base so they they just started selling bonds
00:24:54.840
this is where we're at japan has the person the highest personal income taxes in the g7 it also has the
00:25:06.540
highest debt to gdp in the developed world our debt to gdp is 130 that's the highest we've seen
00:25:17.020
since world war ii japan's debt to gdp is 253 okay that's double ours so their economy was collapsing
00:25:32.660
they had to sell bonds then they got to the place we are and they were like nobody's buying our bonds
00:25:38.480
so what did they do now remember this just was stated by the biden administration as something
00:25:48.020
that is coming our way what they did so the country wouldn't collapse they went and they sold japanese
00:25:57.540
bonds to investors in japan at zero percent interest now why would a company take something where i'm not
00:26:06.680
going to grow on my money and lock my money into a japanese bond for 10 years why would you do that
00:26:12.580
because the government mandated it if you were a retirement fund you had anything to do with japan
00:26:23.500
you were investing you had to put a percentage into government bonds so they bought these government bonds
00:26:34.180
which allowed them to then print more yen and then what did they do they took that money and they
00:26:41.620
bought our government bonds which were returning about two percent interest to them now that two percent
00:26:50.300
interest think of this that's coming out of your pocket so we're paying them um interest on two
00:26:57.560
trillion dollars in treasuries is about 40 billion dollars a year so we're sending 40 billion dollars and
00:27:03.860
that's fine that's a deal we're you know we're buying turtle tunnels i mean you know we need those
00:27:10.540
things but japan's entire defense budget is 47 billion dollars so we are in effect funding 40 uh 40 billion
00:27:23.140
of their 47 billion in defense but then we also provide about 10 billion dollars a year in discounts for guns
00:27:31.820
and ammunition and everything else so we are paying 100 percent of their military this isn't by accident and
00:27:40.100
it's not a bad deal actually our government is more than happy to do that because japan is the most
00:27:50.460
important strategic defense partner when it comes to containing china or defending taiwan we have 55 000
00:27:59.820
u.s troops stationed in japan japan is the only foreign country in the world out of which the u.s has
00:28:09.060
permanently operated a u.s carrier battle group so back to the end being in free fall to keep their bonds
00:28:19.860
at zero percent and then make that arbitrage thing work japan has to continue to buy its own bonds
00:28:29.460
but that's through quantitative easing printing so they print more yen to buy their bonds
00:28:36.660
um and anytime the yield goes above zero they're in trouble they're creating artificial demand for their
00:28:44.960
bonds when they when the yield on the japanese government government bonds went to one percent two
00:28:54.220
percent our 10 year bonds would not be able to service that debt so our bonds they no longer have the 40
00:29:05.300
billion dollars for their military etc etc they have a debt of 253 percent it would cost them uh it would
00:29:13.680
cost them to pay interest on their debt more than they ever collect in taxes so to pay the debt
00:29:20.920
they have to print currency buy the bonds buy ours and we buy theirs and it just starts all over again
00:29:30.780
because we have to print money they have to print money and so it goes into this inflation death spiral
00:29:37.840
and that's where they are right now they're the beginning of the inflation death spiral so here's the
00:29:46.240
problem with all of this if they collapse i mean really collapse who can bail them out
00:30:00.020
we'll we're close to a death spiral so who bails them out and what happens when next september
00:30:12.140
president z goes in front of his you know people's congress and says okay everybody vote i am dictator for life
00:30:23.920
when that happens and japan if japan is out we are so weak with everything else that is going on
00:30:35.080
do you think we're going to save taiwan how would we even do that how would the west protect australia
00:30:45.740
by the way all of this is happening because the fed said and the treasury said we can't bail you out
00:30:57.560
but what you probably don't know that we reported on um about three months ago
00:31:22.540
we're in q2 seven trillion dollars they've burned through already
00:31:29.040
prepare for impact prepare for impact because it is happening the reason why they said they'd be
00:31:39.700
number one on the uh on the boat for the great reset is because if we say jump
00:31:46.940
they are forced to say how high but we no longer have enough juice to tell anyone to jump because we
00:31:59.380
need all of that juice ourselves the best of the glenbeck program
00:32:06.400
welcome to the program nikki haley how are you thank you my friend it's great to be with you
00:32:15.740
good to see you great to see you um so i want to talk to you about a couple of things i've got a
00:32:20.520
lot to run through uh with you um but let's start let's just start with the news around the world
00:32:28.480
what the hell is happening with ukraine this does not feel right it doesn't feel good it shouldn't feel
00:32:36.420
right and it shouldn't feel good um you know this is a bigger fight than just russia and ukraine this
00:32:42.180
is a fight for freedom and how we handle this matters you know we saw how horrible we handled
00:32:49.640
afghanistan we can't continue to have those blunders because when afghanistan fell it let every um
00:32:57.680
corrupt dictator around the world say this is a weak america we better move now while we can and
00:33:03.560
that's what we're seeing happen okay so do you think we should be fighting actually in their fighting
00:33:09.000
americans should not be in their fighting no and and ukrainians haven't asked us to but when you
00:33:14.720
see a freedom loving country trying to protect their own turf we should give them every ounce of
00:33:21.680
ammunition they need we should be pulling in and i'm glad to see nato pulling in their weight because
00:33:27.400
that was hugely important they need to be giving everything and we all need to go and support
00:33:32.800
zelensky to win this fight on freedom and when he wins no other dictator will try and do this again
00:33:39.460
okay so um i agree that we should not go in i'm a little concerned that joe biden was saying hey we
00:33:45.520
can't let anybody take these old airplanes because that might rope us into it and then we're now openly
00:33:52.340
saying oh yeah and we're just leaving them at the bus stop there in ukraine i mean what are we
00:33:58.280
what happened to where it's foolish biden's running scared he's been running scared from
00:34:03.200
the beginning if he had done sanctions before putin moved in we wouldn't have seen this president trump
00:34:08.660
had said that we would send them equipment and ammunition in march of last year when they had
00:34:14.260
already started doing biden stopped it we were supposed to send another group in june of last year
00:34:19.240
biden stopped it all because he thought it would cause putin to react look at what happens when you
00:34:25.540
don't stand strong if you stand strong before conflict the conflict never happens why is putin
00:34:31.640
keep saying that we're on the edge of nuclear war because he has nothing left i mean look is that a
00:34:37.940
is that a i mean so does that make him more believable he doesn't he doesn't want to die and he
00:34:44.740
listen but at the same time let's not ignore him this is a real danger this is something that's serious
00:34:51.880
it's why ukraine needs to win and win strong if putin feels like there's a window he's going to
00:34:58.420
keep going if we can stop him where he's at then he'll start to retreat the key to that is
00:35:03.960
one making sure that ukrainians aren't begging for help that they get the help that they need
00:35:09.720
including the planes including the anti-air defense systems that they're constantly begging for but also
00:35:15.700
making sure we hit putin where it hurts he can't continue a war if he's got the money to fuel it
00:35:21.480
and we have to sanction the energy companies and biden still won't do it okay so so there is there was
00:35:28.300
talk last week that after the french election that europe was going to say no more oil from uh from
00:35:35.980
russia do you believe that is that in the works i think the u.s needs to be pushing them that way
00:35:41.420
there's not an option for them to continue getting oil from russia it puts us all in danger for them
00:35:46.700
to do that are they going to struggle yeah a little bit can we double down and start you know exporting
00:35:53.140
liquefied natural gas can we help them go and find other avenues to get it just like poland and
00:35:58.160
lithuania are getting it from australia yes we can that's what has to happen it's not but they're not
00:36:03.400
going to do that this biden administration will not release any kind of sanctions if you will on our
00:36:11.880
own companies to go and get more liquefied natural gas to to go get anything even for for our own self
00:36:20.860
we're shipping our own strategic oil reserve to europe because biden's scared of the climate change
00:36:27.320
people like he's scared of the green new deal um you know people that fight for that and we're seeing
00:36:32.820
it and it's making america weak i mean it's a serious issue what we've got right now but we can
00:36:38.140
right the ship that's the biggest thing i have faith we can right the ship and that first starts by
00:36:43.760
do we win these elections in november but more importantly what do we do when we win we have to
00:36:51.700
prove we deserve to be there so when republicans take control of the house and senate which i am all
00:36:56.920
over the country trying to help candidates when they take it what do they do you don't just say no to
00:37:02.440
biden what do you say yes to you say yes to making sure that we're exporting more liquefied natural
00:37:08.380
gas that we're opening up our energy reserves you say yes to we're going to stop all this wasteful
00:37:12.900
spending you say yes to the fact that we're going to be strong abroad by having a strong voice against
00:37:18.460
terrorism and all dictators that try and threaten america or say death to america we can start doing
00:37:24.400
things you say yes to yes we're going to take care of our children's education and we're not going to let
00:37:29.160
all these teachers unions do it we've got to start saying yes to a lot of things and not just say no
00:37:34.340
to biden so how do we say yes to the end of inflation how is this one going to be solved because it
00:37:40.960
we're we're close to the death spiral here on inflation i mean glenn it's so bad that
00:37:48.040
the average family is spending five to six thousand dollars more a year now when michael and i were raising
00:37:55.580
our children if you told us we had to spend five to six thousand more a year do you know where we'd
00:37:59.740
get it from a credit card and do you know what happens to families when that happens that's the
00:38:05.300
fear i have is what about these families who are just trying to make it through today the way you do
00:38:11.440
that is first of all yes we open up our energy sector and we make sure something like that works
00:38:16.760
but you stop this wasteful spending do you know in the last spending package
00:38:20.740
republicans and democrats passed 5 000 earmarks totaling 10 billion dollars you want to hear
00:38:29.460
what some of that was 12 million dollars for a baseball park in new york 20 15 million dollars
00:38:37.280
for new jersey to apply to get the world cup six and a half million for golf courses in colorado
00:38:42.920
this is our republicans and democrats doing this glenn that is not okay you can't say and go on tv
00:38:49.600
and scream that inflation is terrible and turn around and co-sponsor an earmark and open that back
00:38:54.140
up where were our republicans in this why did they allow this to happen we had stopped earmarks well
00:38:59.640
it's kind of where i am with the republican party in whole i don't see i see a few um that are standing up
00:39:07.820
and are fighting the good fight but then you see people like mitch mcconnell i mean uh you know you
00:39:14.340
you've got to clean out these these federal agencies term limits term limits you have to
00:39:21.700
just clean them out well you're not going to be able to do that if you have a president
00:39:25.140
without the congress congress has to do it and you could have you know control of the congress with
00:39:31.820
republicans but do they even get it do you know what else congress can do put controls on our border
00:39:38.840
they can fix this border crisis where is congress that's what i'm going to keep saying is we need
00:39:45.400
the fighters we need those that understand that you have to make so much noise the people will
00:39:51.520
follow you if you do that but you can't go on this runaway spending where our debt's more than our
00:39:56.480
economy do you know we're having to borrow money to make our interest payments oh yeah our kids and
00:40:01.600
grandkids will never forgive us for this we have got to right the ship for the good of our country for
00:40:07.300
the good of the world for the good of the next generation it's it's time for all this to stop
00:40:12.140
so what are the things that you do um you're the founder of stand for america and you go out and you
00:40:18.220
try to promote good policies and also the right candidates you just endorsed sarah palin why
00:40:25.760
couple of reasons first of all when i was running for governor the first time
00:40:30.340
um there were five candidates i started as the fifth out of five um had the least amount of money the
00:40:36.820
least name id um and i got up to the second position um i was running against lieutenant
00:40:42.860
governor a congressman an attorney general a state senator got up to the second position
00:40:47.960
and sarah palin without telling her staff called me the day before and said her todd called and said
00:40:57.040
we're coming to south carolina we're gonna endorse nikki and she did an in a life pro-life speech in the
00:41:04.960
morning she did an nra speech in the afternoon and she came and endorsed me in the evening and helped
00:41:10.320
push me over the the deep end so first i'll tell you um my loyalty to her will always be strong but
00:41:15.980
secondly it's because i believe in her she had a voice that matters glenn she was canceled before we
00:41:23.820
ever talked about cancel culture she was vilified by the media before we ever had all this happen and
00:41:30.020
she was a great governor she understood the value of a dollar she understood what real families went
00:41:36.400
through and she and i they called us the rock star sisterhood we related on so many levels because the
00:41:43.040
establishment denied me and the resistance didn't think i was cool enough or fit the mold for them
00:41:48.900
and sarah went through the same thing and you know we need her voice in congress i would love to see
00:41:56.240
her walking the halls of congress and reminding them of what the tea party was all about and how
00:42:01.260
taxed enough already is happening again i would love for her to talk about what energy opening up
00:42:06.400
our energy policies and really doing that she's the right person i'd love to have her back she in
00:42:11.700
arizona where is she sarah yeah she's in alaska she's back in alaska she's in alaska um all right so
00:42:17.820
who is the who's the candidate that you have seen that went that you've said oh my gosh this is a
00:42:26.120
new breed you know i think there's been a few in the last cycle it was the victoria sparks it was the
00:42:32.740
um it was the nicole maliotakis it was the nancy mace there were a lot of just fighters just had good
00:42:40.760
fighters about them now we're seeing different ones in terms of like morgan latrell in texas wesley
00:42:46.860
hunt in texas like those were fantastic tony gonzalez in texas we just um did him as well monica de la
00:42:54.040
cruz we're looking at her hard you know there's some really good ones here in texas but around the
00:42:59.400
country we're seeing some really great ones and so i just um endorsed or tiffany smiley in washington
00:43:06.480
state you know a lot of people are throwing washington state away if anybody can win in
00:43:11.280
washington state it's tiffany smiley and so we're we're not just going after the easy races we're going
00:43:17.280
after the ones that can really be difficult it's why we endorse jack cittarelli in new jersey for
00:43:21.860
governor he lost by one percentage point we almost had it it's why we endorsed glenn youngkin in
00:43:26.680
virginia it's because we know when we get in there you got to push these people over the finish line
00:43:32.720
like sarah palin pushed me because when you see those fighters when you see those people that can
00:43:38.040
really move the ball that you know they're not just going to bring good policy but they're going to
00:43:42.520
bring good fight and they're not going to be afraid to stand up to the establishment those are the
00:43:47.680
people we want so i i i'm sure i disagree with elon musk on a lot of stuff i'd vote for him in a
00:43:56.300
heartbeat and because he a he's tony stark i mean he's just he doesn't care um but the the other thing
00:44:04.140
is is he has a vision of where things are going you listen to him and then you listen to anybody on
00:44:11.640
television anybody in congress or in the white house and there's no vision there what do you
00:44:18.840
think about him taking over twitter i love it it's a win for freedom it's an absolute win for freedom
00:44:24.940
of speech but what i love is elon musk is not afraid to rattle the cage now maybe when you have that much
00:44:31.280
money you can rattle all the cages you want i'm grateful for him and now my question is who's next
00:44:36.380
let's keep going he kind of said that yesterday let's not stop with with him yeah and you know
00:44:41.560
what there's there's facebook there's instagram there's the big media you know that we need to
00:44:46.360
go and rattle those cages let's do it and elon musk has been the start let's not that let that be the
00:44:52.260
end yeah i don't think it will be you know i was thinking about this morning we're at the end of that
00:44:57.640
of that cycle that pendulum cycle and i think 2024 the pendulum starts to swing back to individual
00:45:04.420
liberty so we're almost there oh we just have to make it yes like 2030 we just have to make it
00:45:10.220
and things will swing back and be good let me ask you a question about education because we've seen
00:45:15.140
over the past couple of years i covet i think presented with all of its horrible negatives
00:45:20.020
a unique opportunity for conservatives to communicate what they believe is right when it
00:45:26.200
comes to education in a proactive sense right people saw what was going on they had to they were
00:45:30.740
forced to watch the zoom classes and saw the crazy stuff that was being taught and also that
00:45:35.460
the schools wouldn't open up a lot of conservatives responded to that by saying we got to open these
00:45:40.360
schools up and of course that was the right argument but isn't there more that we can do here isn't this
00:45:44.880
a unique opportunity to talk about school choice and freedom for kids abolish the second of the
00:45:50.420
department of ed abolish the department of ed you know but it goes before that right so look at
00:45:55.680
pre-covid pre-covid 65 of fourth graders were not proficient in reading pre-covid 66 of eighth graders
00:46:05.640
were not proficient in reading or math think about that incredible we had a problem before covid so
00:46:11.480
don't let them say that covid brought this on no we already had a problem with the establishment
00:46:15.840
in education before so now you go and you look at the fact that in rural south carolina where i was
00:46:21.920
born and raised covid hits think of a child where both parents had to work here is this kid using a
00:46:29.720
screen he's never used before used by way of a hot spot on a school bus down the street now think he's
00:46:38.220
in third grade what's he learning reading fractions science do you think the teachers unions are going to
00:46:44.960
tell his parents to hold him back they're not so what happened after two years of lost education
00:46:51.940
when we were already behind in math and reading who is going to stand up for these kids and then you
00:46:58.600
take it a step further that those kids in rural south carolina when all the wealthy families got to put
00:47:06.300
their kids in private schools where did the rest of the kids go that's my issue is one let's go back
00:47:14.100
and fix what was already broken you've got some kids don't push them through to the next grade don't
00:47:18.820
push them through later if a child can't read by third grade they're four times less likely to graduate
00:47:23.840
high school then we need to open up school choice we need to open up charter schools and we need to go
00:47:29.460
put the blame where it belongs which is on the teachers unions and the democrats that wanted covid money
00:47:35.180
more than they wanted to teach our kids and we have to hold them accountable so i've been saying
00:47:39.380
lately if you're a teacher you can be a great teacher but if you're a member of the teachers
00:47:43.700
union i'm sorry you're part of the problem you don't have to be a member of that union stop
00:47:51.140
it's exactly right your voice will be loud enough without the union the union is just making money off of
00:47:57.280
you the union in california basically made sure that they open schools for one day just to get the
00:48:03.700
covid money one day what did that do for a child nothing but it got them the money they wanted
00:48:09.360
we've got to start telling teachers we want to empower you but the unions aren't going to be the
00:48:14.820
way to do that the people are going to be the way to do that would you be for abolishing the department
00:48:19.460
of education i think it's completely messed up we need to bring it down and start it back over and
00:48:23.940
the way we start it back over is give the states control give the states control over because they
00:48:29.360
already have that you don't need them to i don't need an office in washington dc no let me tell you
00:48:34.640
as governor we did education reform every governor in the country could make an impact because what
00:48:39.760
the department of education does is says if you take this money if you teach this class we'll give
00:48:44.960
you this much money if you teach critical race theory we'll give you this much money if you teach
00:48:48.800
this we'll give you this much money states right now are teaching to the money they're not teaching
00:48:53.560
to the children states need to control education we don't need it controlled from dc because one size
00:48:59.360
does not fit all right and the way to do that is to abolish the department of ed no strings nobody's
00:49:07.320
answering the phone in washington dc it's bloated it's bureaucratic and it's lost sight of children
00:49:12.400
always good to see you nikki nikki haley former u.s ambassador to the united nations uh former south
00:49:18.400
