Glenn Beck is back with a special Q&A with all of the hosts of the Glenn Beck Program. He talks about the results of the mid-term elections, why it's so close in some states, and why we should all be worried about it.
00:07:40.020I just would like to say to the mainstream press and everybody else that if it didn't come out our way, we were supposed to be in the streets today rioting.
00:17:19.040And yet you look in every one of these red states, you start in Texas and you go up the middle of the country, the Rocky Mountain states, Great Plains, the Deep South.
00:17:30.420And you look at the departments of health, the departments of education, and they're still promoting versions of CRT.
00:17:51.160We have it in terms of the electorate that certainly doesn't want Democrats, and those are safe states in that respect.
00:17:59.360But name me another governor who's doing that.
00:18:02.180And I think that needs to be our focus.
00:18:03.900And obviously the school boards and county positions, and then not just the elections, but the off-season game every day in between the elections.
00:18:48.420But she's competitive in a purple state and has everyone's attention and eyes on her in the entire country.
00:18:59.040And that's only because she's just not going to have people violate the Constitution and tell her what, you know, the new word of the day is.
00:19:08.420And I think that's winning in any red state.
00:19:17.360And that's really the model going forward.
00:19:19.680We could have a discussion on how we could win a presidency with the electoral map that the Democrats have built.
00:19:27.180And what do you do with blue states that seem to be impervious to facts and reason and economic conditions and crime?
00:19:34.600But what I want to know first is within our own sphere of influence in a state like Idaho, why is there the transgender agenda being taught within the public schools there?
00:19:47.380You know, why doesn't North Dakota, which just won 90 percent GOP majorities in both houses, why doesn't that look more like Florida?
00:19:55.160And, you know, that gets into some of what you're talking about, the leadership races at the federal level, but it's true in the state level as well.
00:20:03.440These are all things I think we have a lot more influence over than the R versus D generic fight.
00:20:09.480I think we need to clean our own house first and take the red states red before we could radiate our influence off to maybe the swing states.
00:20:18.640Well, I will tell you that I think it's going to come down to red states being the block for the republic.
00:20:26.960And if the red states aren't really strong and strong through and through, they're going to get crushed.
00:20:32.880You know, this administration is doing everything they can to federalize everything they can.
00:20:38.760And if you don't have red states fighting back, I mean, look, the people who voted for, you know, abortion, you can kill the child after birth that that went through it.
00:20:53.160People who are voting for that kind of evil and then don't see a problem with Fetterman.
00:21:00.800You know, I got to tell you, you're in the wrong place.
00:21:03.600You got to get we've got to strengthen these red states.
00:21:28.920You know, when we were talking pre-election and we were reading the tea leaves thinking they would win a lot of these states, win large majorities.
00:21:37.880There was a part of me that was concerned that it would create this massive rhino caucus of blue state Republicans that would constantly be looking over their shoulders with tenuous control, trying to pander to them.
00:21:49.780And I think in many ways this just reaffirmed what what many of us are thinking is that we need some sort of de facto national divorce that we don't really have the ability to save them.
00:22:01.440But we need to save ourselves, save our own life, liberty and property from the blue state morass, from the federal tyranny.
00:22:23.320Unfortunately, in some blue states, as we're seeing with the leadership of the House here in Texas, the rhinos get in.
00:22:31.780You know, they they just they don't run as a Democrat because you'll never win as a Democrat.
00:22:36.920And so they just run as a Republican and they become these wishy washy rhinos that stand in the way of a lot of really good things.
00:22:45.060And this really needs to be the focus of, I think, conservative media, conservative influence.
00:22:52.080This is where we can have an outsized share of influence rather than focusing 100 percent on the D.C. soap opera.
00:22:59.320Look, they're going to say we don't have enough power or control to do what we want there.
00:23:03.160Well, in a state like Texas, why do they give half the chairmanship to the Democrats?
00:23:09.300You know, why do you have weak leadership as speaker?
00:23:12.240And these are the things we need to start pushing legislation.
00:23:16.140I mean, I think this is an area where Trump could be very helpful rather than just holding, you know, election rallies, hold legislative rallies, rally behind bills to ban grooming in Texas.
00:23:28.320Like Brian Slayton wants to do for Texas to build the wall.
00:23:33.340Legislation to nullify any federal unconstitutional act.
00:23:56.380We don't have to wait for a trifecta in Washington, which might not ever materialize or work for us.
00:24:02.800We could fortify the roots of liberty right now in a number of states.
00:24:07.700So let me go to the national here for just a second.
00:24:12.780The I believe and I'd love to hear your your thoughts on this.
00:24:16.600I believe the Republicans when and if they get the House need to come in like just as a storm and not start with the the hearings, but start with legislation, common sense, big, bold legislation.
00:24:36.860One right after another, even if it won't pass in the Senate, just pass them, pass them, pass them, pass them.
00:24:45.280So that way you can say, really, I'm a do nothing Congress.
00:24:48.760We've done all these things and these were all good for the economy.
00:25:11.520So in this case, yeah, I mean, all the stuff on energy, getting rid of every global warming regulation, defunding grooming throughout the federal government.
00:25:19.740Then you go on to medical freedom, getting rid of the biomedical security state, the emergency powers of the president.
00:25:25.780You go on to getting rid of liability protection for big pharma.
00:25:30.340You know, let the Democrats run on being the party of the big pharma.
00:25:34.380You defund all the surveillance, the surveillance state.
00:25:38.760You know, there's there's a lot of evidence that the abortion issue might have worked against Republicans in some states.
00:25:44.600But what if they fortified themselves by being the champion of real privacy against the government, the biosecurity state and just the surveillance in general?
00:25:54.760You know, selling off federal land, that's going to be a big one.
00:26:24.440And, you know, in a sane world, people wouldn't have voted for the Democrats in that environment.
00:26:29.140But we can't afford to pull any punches we do have and can throw, given the firewall they've built up culturally, structurally, politically, electorally,
00:26:41.400and education system, we can't afford to miss an opportunity.
00:26:45.680So, Daniel, I want to talk to you because I think there's a lot of people, I know I am, I am ready to hold their feet to the fire every step of the way.
00:26:53.960So, I read Rick Scott's 26, you know, policies that he would want to, that he was pushing for, education, Department of Education closing, U.S. military zero diversity training,
00:27:09.500and no affirmative action federal funding, strict mandatory minimum sentences required where a police officer is shot,
00:27:20.440any attempt to deny our Second Amendment freedom, opposed and stopped.
00:27:24.980There are some, there's stronger things from Rick Scott.
00:27:28.420And I would love to see Rick Scott be the guy to challenge Mitch McConnell, because I think McConnell needs to go.
00:27:34.980Whether he's minority or majority, he needs to go.
00:27:39.840Who is, is McCarthy a guy that we can trust?
00:28:40.000It's something you couldn't define 10 years ago, maybe even five years ago.
00:28:44.880This feudalism, transhumanism, this private-public partnership to literally control every aspect of our lives and destroy life as we know it.
00:28:56.200I just don't hear a throbbing heartbeat in someone like Kevin McCarthy that he understands that that's what's going on.
00:29:04.220Who has it that the people could get on the phones and just burn up the phones and tell Congress, their local congressman, enough is enough.
00:29:27.580He is someone that has been more vocal.
00:29:30.220I don't know if he wants to run for leadership, but he's kind of in the Freedom Caucus leadership.
00:29:34.800See if we can get Chip Roy on the phone.
00:29:36.100I know Jim Jordan said he wouldn't challenge Kevin McCarthy, so it's going to have to be someone who's willing to do it, and maybe it would be a guy like Chip.
00:30:20.800I think they are, especially because they are upset about the underwhelming results, which I think, again, in my own devilish way, I think it does work to our favor.
00:30:32.740Because a large majority, a big victory, I just think it would have put a Band-Aid on the problems we've always had with this party.
00:30:43.080People thought when Trump won in 2016, it would flush it out.
00:30:46.200But the truth is, we still, to this day, have the same leadership.
00:30:49.920I mean, these are the same guys that drove people to, you know, eschew all the establishment candidates during that presidential election and go to Trump.
00:31:00.180And yet, somehow, they're still flying and kicking.
00:31:39.880It seems like decades since that was a reality, but that feels pretty good right now, doesn't it?
00:31:45.640Because if there's one thing you can expect this year, it is the unexpected.
00:31:50.360And that's why American Home Shield exists.
00:31:52.720As a member of American Home Shield, you will know your budget, your time, and let's be honest, your sanity, all covered.
00:31:59.860Choose a plan from American Home Shield and keep your budget goals in check this year.
00:32:04.900They offer a choice of three great plans to help cover the cost of repair and replacement parts of any major home system and appliance, no matter their age.
00:32:14.540So keep your home up and running and on budget with American Home Shield.
00:32:19.560Right now, take $50 off their most comprehensive plans ever.
00:33:10.300Well, first of all, you know, I think what we've learned in the past several election cycles is that our election officials can control the narrative.
00:45:42.020You'll have a few votes, um, popping in from the smaller counties around the state.
00:45:46.240But Maricopa is, of course, the big prize, and it is trending big-time GOP.
00:45:51.280So, we're hoping, um, the next night or two to have some big changes and big numbers to announce for Republicans.
00:45:58.320Can I ask, the way they count the votes there, is it kind of like, do you remember, uh, I don't know, if you've ever been to, like, a party and somebody puts, like, an orange under their neck and then you have to pass it to the other person?
00:46:13.340And then they have to pass it to another.
00:46:15.320Is it kind of like that in Maricopa County?
00:46:17.720Is that how they're counting the votes?
