00:07:10.840So how do we solve all this? What do you do? Let me tell you a story. September 26, 1983. I don't know if you've heard this story before. I know I've told it before, but three weeks earlier, the Soviets had shot down a Korean airliner.
00:07:26.120If you're my age, you remember it. 269 people, KAL 007. It included an American congressman. Moscow was convinced Reagan was looking for an excuse and the KGB was hunting for any sign of a first strike.
00:07:41.300South of Moscow, in a bunker, a 44-year-old lieutenant, his name was Sanislav Petrov,
00:07:48.080he was on duty, and his job was to watch new satellite systems that were built to see American missiles
00:07:54.300the moment they left the ground, but it was all brand new technology.
00:07:57.220It was after midnight, siren went off, red light lit up on the wall, launch.
00:08:03.080One American missile, then another, then five.
00:08:07.720The computer rated its own confidence at the highest level.
00:19:39.580I've seen a couple of returns from counties that matter, but I've not been able to dissect
00:19:43.400the data to understand who's coming out, like which age brackets are coming out.
00:19:47.440We've seen a very large turnout over the two weeks of early voting from a lot of voters who had not previously voted that we didn't see in Democrat or Republican primaries.
00:19:58.840So we've got some newbies, you know, that are showing up.
00:20:01.540We've seen a lot of turnout from younger generation.
00:20:06.080A lot of Gen Xers that have turned out.1.00
00:20:08.280We've been lower with the older age group.0.76
00:20:10.760So I'm hopeful that we're going to get a big Republican wave from our older turnout, our older voters, our rural voters who traditionally still like to vote on Election Day.0.51
00:20:20.060So that's the hope. But, you know, we've got to watch the numbers. It's still early here at 9 a.m. in Texas.
00:20:25.100You know, I'm concerned, Chip. I mean, Tal Rico is I mean, is an absolute sham and a lie.
00:20:33.520Everything that he says that, you know, oh, I'm not for that.
00:21:29.640You know, I'm one of those people, and I think you largely agree with this, that believes, you know, we are effectively at war, right?0.96
00:21:35.580There is a war raging with the Red-Green Alliance wanting to attack Western civilization, and that is a mix of Marxism, Islamism, and the whole thing.0.90
00:21:43.220And what we're seeing out of Tallarico is the embodiment of the sort of modern New Age Democrat, whatever you want to call it.0.89
00:21:49.860By the way, it's fully fraudulent, right?
00:22:25.300These are all things that are baby steps
00:22:27.080towards getting inflation and getting interest rates in check. The third bucket is where I'm
00:22:32.080the most concerned, right, which is meeting the American voters where they are. None of them like
00:22:37.100Tallarico, really. What's happening is where people are just frustrated. They're frustrated
00:22:42.100about affordability. And so we just got to meet them where they are. And I'm hopeful, you know,
00:22:47.240we've had some of that. Some of us have been trying over the last two weeks. Midterm elections
00:22:51.120are what they are. But we got to remember that we're trying to change the trajectory of the
00:22:55.440country, Glenn. We've been doing that for a while. This president has done it better than any of us
00:23:00.040could have even predicted 12 years ago in terms of changing the trajectory. We've now got a rally
00:23:05.820around that. I've got less than a minute here, Chip. Tell me, give me the pitch to somebody who
00:23:10.700is frustrated, who feel Republicans let them down. I'm not going to go out and vote. Give me the pitch.
00:23:16.620Why should they go out and vote? Well, look, you know, as we've always said, we have the worst
00:23:21.320form of government except for all the others. And this Republican Party that's currently got
00:23:26.440the majority and has had now for 21 months, we have made extraordinary changes. We have made
00:23:31.560extraordinary steps forward. As I said, securing the border, the economy's trending in the right
00:23:36.040direction, moving American manufacturing back, a stronger military enlistment and recruiting is up.
00:23:40.420We're re-stabilized the Western Hemisphere. We're attacking the cartels. We're stopping fentanyl
00:23:44.600from flowing into our communities. We've been rooting out all the woke garbage. But yes,1.00
00:23:48.940we have not gotten prices where they need to go. Yes, the president has picked a fight with Iran
00:23:53.620because he's taking a hundred-year view to try to cut the head of the snake off over there.1.00
00:23:57.460Whether you agree with it or not, it was a reasonable thing to do. We have got to fight
00:24:01.760hard over the next two years for the rest of this presidency to get prices down, to get housing
00:24:06.720affordable, healthcare affordable, food affordable, gas and diesel prices down. We can do that. Let's
00:24:12.460get a refining capacity up here. Let's do the right things for the country. Look, we can do it,
00:24:17.000But you've got to let us finish the job.
00:24:18.560That would be my pitch if I were on the ballot.
00:24:20.300That's my pitch as an American, and that's my pitch as someone who has been working with the administration in Congress and still has two months left to try to finish the job through Christmas.
00:24:30.800I'd like to have you back on win or lose here this week and have you talk about what the Republicans should be doing and what's next for you.
00:24:40.600Because you are one of the more powerful voices in Texas, and I'm bummed that you're not on the ballot this time.
00:24:47.000but I'm interested in where you're going next as well.
00:24:50.620So let's have you back on later this week.
00:25:12.600We're just trying to push Republicans out to vote
00:25:15.120because we need a few more of them to vote today.
00:25:17.000Yeah, I know. You know, I saw numbers that shows that Republicans are leading today early. There are more Republicans coming out. But just to make sure that we're ahead and to win, we need a lot more Republicans because we count on the Republicans coming out today, right?
00:26:00.700The difference between the two of us, it couldn't be more immense.
00:26:03.860this idea of him being a socialist, Marxist, anti-constitutional guy who has nothing in common
00:26:11.820with most Texans. He's more of a California guy. He represents the values of California.
00:26:17.060And I'm a constitutional conservative, believe in free markets, believe in opportunity,
00:26:21.920individual rights. And there's literally nothing we agree on. Although right now during the general
00:26:28.060election, he switched every single one of his views and he's no longer for trans and kids.
00:26:33.620He's no longer for boys and girls sports.
00:26:35.400He's no longer for a state income tax.
00:26:36.960He's no longer for he wants to secure the border.
00:26:39.960He's not against the oil and gas industry trying to destroy it.
00:26:42.400But previously, until he got into this general election, he actually voted for all of those things and even tried to pass bills to do some of those things.
00:26:49.920So, you know, he's run a very dishonest campaign trying to deceive the voters because he knows that he cannot win if he tells the truth.
00:26:57.520And so he hasn't told the truth about me or about him.
00:27:00.300So what happens if he wins today to everything that we've done for border security here in Texas?
00:28:52.100What's his name is now a senator from Missouri.
00:28:56.080And there's only two of you guys in the country that we're actually doing, I think, the constitutional heavy lifting for the entire country.
00:30:22.060Yeah, that sums him up the entire campaign. He's got to get elected. So he lies about his positions. He runs commercials saying, oh, I can't believe they think Ken Pax is lying about me saying I'm for transitioning children and I'm for boys and girls sports.
00:30:35.880well guess what he voted for all of that and he talked about it often it was a big part of you
00:30:41.660know what he what he pushed in the legislature and what he talked about in in interviews so
00:30:46.780you know he's he's a con man and he's lying about all of his positions right now because he's got
00:30:52.200to get elected and then he can go back and be the mandani of of texas and that's what he will be i
00:30:57.300promise you if republicans don't take this seriously we're going to end up with a mandani
00:31:01.500in the U.S. Senate from Texas, canceling out every vote that Ted Cruz makes and making sure
00:31:06.780that we don't have any good judges, federal judges from Texas, because he can blue slip them.
00:31:10.860Okay. Let me ask you, you get into the Senate. How are you going to hold the squishy Republicans
00:31:17.840feet to the fire on things like the SAVE Act? Well, I mean, to me, that's like, first of all,
00:31:23.140the most important bill that I've seen in decades, because we don't fix the elections
00:31:27.080nationwide and allow these democratic states to cheat we're going to lose the country anyway so
00:31:33.500i'm gonna i mean i'm pretty serious about that i i want to understand why any republican would
00:31:39.160not be for that i i guess first i'm going to have conversations like what can you say to me that
00:31:45.200says explains why you would not want to protect our elections from voter fraud and if they try
00:31:51.580to tell me there is no voter fraud i'm gonna say look i know there is because i prosecuted in texas
00:31:55.680just because they don't prosecute in your state
00:31:57.680doesn't mean you don't have voter fraud.
00:39:23.040And you can make an argument, given the state of Michigan's recent voting history, you maybe needed a bridge Republican like him before people would come to people like us.
00:39:37.380And so, he is providing, I guess we would call it a safe harbor for people to say, at some point, sanity has to win here.
00:39:44.500And I, you know, we've been waiting, you know, when you do what you and I do for a living every day, you ask yourself all the time, like, what's the rubber band moment?
00:39:51.160I mean, when does this get pushed so far that regardless of whether you like Donald Trump or not, or whatever your pet issue or cause is, you're just like, I can't do that.
00:40:00.540And I think what would be fascinating tonight is if, say, it's 51-49 at the end of the night, Republicans in the Senate, and Michigan is the 51st state.
00:40:09.160Because I think that would be one of the biggest storylines we've had in recent memory in a midterm election, where essentially the normie Michigan just got together and said,
00:46:59.100We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.
00:47:03.880But to keep this fight going, we need you right now.
00:47:07.060Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast?
