00:00:05.780
starting to prepare myself for worst case scenarios that's my no and you're preparing
00:00:09.780
me and i appreciate that because i prepared everybody for a huge blowout and i sincerely
00:00:15.180
regret it now because you did say the congress uh the house is going to be 432 to 3 and that
00:00:22.040
did not that was a little it was a little high it was optimistic it was a little high but i still
00:00:28.120
have hope i mean you know on today's podcast hello everybody today's podcast uh we're talking to
00:00:33.900
you know stew and his little stooge in florida i was like oh i think it's still gonna be okay
00:00:40.900
not in florida in arizona i think it's still gonna be okay yeah really my stooge but that's a
00:00:47.720
another situation uh we also have uh bill o'reilly on the program today bill o'reilly i thought was
00:00:53.820
pretty fascinating and and how he was talking about the 2024 situation i thought as a good
00:01:00.660
friend of donald trump i thought it was amazing amazing that's fascinating i i was kind of surprised
00:01:07.220
to see him go there a couple a little surprised yeah but it was interesting analysis um and my
00:01:13.200
analysis of the trump versus desantis thing i think you need to hear we start the podcast off with that
00:01:20.000
chip roy makes some news on the show too yeah uh because the the leadership of the republicans
00:01:25.960
is a little bit up in question and chip roy makes that pretty clear and i don't even know it was such
00:01:30.560
a packed show today i don't even know if we had a chance to promote that benjamin netanyahu i talked
00:01:35.180
to him yesterday and remember when that used to be like a really big deal we spent weeks uh promoting it
00:01:43.640
uh yeah yesterday i talked to benjamin netanyahu for an hour and what he had to say about um kanye west
00:01:52.020
and uh and anti-semitism what he said about the war with ukraine and russia is very important and the
00:02:00.920
stories he told about donald trump and um you'll be interested to hear the part about barack obama as
00:02:09.160
well uh all of that is on tomorrow's podcast right here where you get your podcast or it's available
00:02:15.700
right now on blaze tv so here's the friday podcast right after we tell you about relief factor if you're
00:02:21.340
one of the millions of americans who suffer from daily pain just try this please just try this if
00:02:27.620
everybody would just try this i wouldn't have to say it every day you know what i'm saying thanks to
00:02:32.100
relief factor hundreds of thousands of americans have gotten control of their pain i had a hard
00:02:40.500
time with my pain in my hands i couldn't paint i couldn't write i couldn't i couldn't do anything
00:02:47.240
with my hands not real good then i tried relief factor because my wife forced me to uh i didn't
00:02:53.720
think it would work for me because you know it's like ibuprofen 800 except better oh so it still
00:03:01.380
won't work but it's a bigger dose no it actually attacks inflammation four different directions
00:03:07.240
where ibuprofen only attacks it one different direction um and it works for me i don't know
00:03:12.820
if it's going to work for you but that's why they have the three-week quick start 1995 if you want to
00:03:16.400
find a drug free and natural way to get your life back relieffactor.com that's relieffactor.com
00:03:21.880
you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program
00:03:32.420
i'm going to say this before he uh he comes on uh chip roy is a congressman from texas
00:03:42.300
i hope that someday he decides to either run for the governor of texas or uh better yet for john
00:03:49.280
cornyn uh and uh his seat in the senate chip roy welcome to the program sir how are you
00:03:56.920
good morning glenn i'm i'm doing great uh unfortunately i'm in dc and not texas but
00:04:01.740
yeah that's the job i signed up for so here i am so i saw a tweet from you i will not support anyone
00:04:06.960
for gop leadership position that does not one stop the mandates ensure that we don't draft our
00:04:12.900
daughters uh stop abortion travel funds and who will not use the power in the of the purse on these
00:04:19.780
continuing resolutions or omnibus bills um do you think that if we gain control of congress that
00:04:28.540
there uh the leadership is there in kevin mccarthy or so look glenn here's here's the deal here's what
00:04:37.520
the score is right now um kevin mccarthy does not have 218 votes here uh to gain the speakership
00:04:45.660
so the question is going to become is are we going to rally around someone else or is kevin going to
00:04:52.100
demonstrate that he's got a vision and a plan to carry this country forward now i would argue um that
00:04:58.520
should have happened six months ago a year ago two years ago uh but here we sit and you know there's a
00:05:04.220
lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth about the fact that we're sitting at i don't know what we're
00:05:08.580
going to have gained maybe eight or nine or ten seats we don't know yet somewhere around 220 222
00:05:12.940
and we thought we would gain another 15 seats over that and that's bad but that's not really the
00:05:20.340
problem the problem is watching somebody like ron de santis lead against this woke indoctrination this
00:05:26.860
woke garbage by radical stand up against covet tyranny lead his state forward and then absolutely clean
00:05:34.100
up in florida while we're all looking for table scraps in washington because we put out a commitment
00:05:39.720
to america that said nothing that didn't you know create any environment to have the american people
00:05:47.300
rally around us so the question before the republican conference right now is what are we going to do
00:05:53.020
it is time for leadership it's time for us to stand up and offer an agenda that will inspire the
00:05:59.420
american people if we're given the gavels we have to use them so um what is what are the conversations
00:06:06.480
like in washington um are they are they actually buying into this uh this lie that uh you know you
00:06:15.140
you can't go the way of trump or de santis you've you've you've got to just toe the line and be more
00:06:20.100
reasonable right now there's some people who are saying that as you would expect right because it's
00:06:26.140
always the case you got the mitt romney's writing op-eds in the wall street journal with a bunch of
00:06:30.180
tired old rhetoric right he wants to go back to 20 years ago and talk about comprehensive immigration
00:06:35.540
reform and how we need to talk about you know uh a new strategy on energy and talks about carbon
00:06:40.900
capture all these kind of crazy instead of just stand up stand up and fight for the america that the
00:06:46.220
american people want us to fight for right and ron de santis did that uh donald trump did that in 2016
00:06:52.400
i don't particularly enjoy the fact that he's taking shots at de santis i think that's stupid
00:06:56.320
uh but at the end of the day what the american people want is leadership and ron de santis
00:07:01.800
demonstrated that and i will tell you that the movement of the republican party towards securing
00:07:07.100
the border and standing up uh against cartels and to stand up against the flow of fentanyl into our state
00:07:12.160
and country is why we actually did pretty well with hispanics nationwide and yes i wish we would have
00:07:17.380
won three seats in south texas but we won one we won a state board of education see we won a texas
00:07:22.360
state rep seat uh cassie and myra both got over 40 percentage points better o'rourke dropped in his
00:07:27.640
performance between 2018 and 2022 in south texas by a lot uh abbott uh moved the needle we've got
00:07:34.400
more work to do though and you you do that by standing up and actually securing the border and
00:07:39.520
demonstrating that that we're going to lead and take out the cartels and here's the key in washington
00:07:44.200
you have to use the power of the purse to do it yes not heard kevin mccarthy or any other of our
00:07:51.400
so-called leaders in this town saying yes we will use the power of the purse to force joe biden to
00:07:57.120
the table to do his constitutional duty to secure the border i've not heard him say we'll use it or
00:08:01.760
the ndaa to force them to the table to say we will end vaccine mandates i haven't heard him say that
00:08:07.300
we'll use the power of the purse to force them to the table to make sure that american energy is
00:08:10.600
opened up instead of being attacked so that we don't end up burning furniture in the fireplace like
00:08:15.400
the people of germany are going to do this winter that's the kind of leadership the american
00:08:18.900
people expect well i i will tell you the this omnibus thing if if if congress passes the rest
00:08:26.620
of the uh the omnibus for the entire year they're out of their mind they're out of their mind pass it
00:08:33.820
for a couple of months or three months and then go to work on a real budget and start uh the
00:08:40.880
appropriations committees again and use the power of the purse because it is that is the one tool
00:08:47.900
the constitution was written so you guys are thrown out every two years you have to run every two
00:08:54.020
years that way if you're not doing your job we can throw you out well the reason why we can throw you
00:09:01.420
out and know if you're doing your job or not is because you guys were the ones that had the control
00:09:06.780
of all of the spending well you're not doing that now and you have to do it otherwise we have 87 000
00:09:14.780
new irs agents otherwise we have you know vaccine mandates you guys can stop all of this stuff
00:09:21.620
dead in its tracks constitutionally if you will take control of the purse this is exactly right
00:09:29.560
federalist 58 james madison what did he say he said that the power of the purse was the most effective
00:09:36.180
tool you could give to the people's house to constrain an executive branch that is engaging in tyranny
00:09:43.200
over the people now that's my paraphrase it's not exact wording but that's roughly what he said
00:09:46.900
and that's the truth and we have to use it instead of republicans go cowl in the corner and go oh my
00:09:51.820
god they're going to claim shutdown no make democrats be the ones who own and suggest they shut down
00:09:58.040
our job is to put forward any kind of spending mechanism that does the work the american people
00:10:02.660
want us to and then go message the hell out of it unapologetically and unafraid
00:10:06.240
that's what leadership does you go into the room you sit down with the conference you say the
00:10:11.880
american people want us to secure the border what are we going to do we can't just pass a bill kevin
00:10:17.600
says oh let's have hr1 be a border security bill so what that'll die in the senate and joe boden won't
00:10:22.440
sign it so what are you going to do you you should use the power of the purse what about vaccine mandates
00:10:27.820
i had a hearing yesterday we held a hearing while all this crap's going on in washington about oh who's
00:10:32.940
going to be in what these homecoming court you know elections we held a hearing with dr scott atlas
00:10:39.460
dr jay batacharya dr martin koldorf about the truth about covid we need to know the truth about the
00:10:46.860
tyranny over the people and we talked about vaccine mandates we asked every one of them is there any
00:10:52.620
reason to have a vaccine mandate on our men and women in the military or nurses or young kids they all
00:10:57.800
said no with no caveats yet we're firing people right now a republican party with leadership would
00:11:05.800
fight that and they would fight it and not give a damn about what that means electorally and you know
00:11:11.840
what that would mean electorally good things it would chip thank you so much let us know um you know
00:11:19.800
who the fighters are that uh are kind of gathering around so we can show them our support and uh as a
00:11:26.280
people not as a show but as a people and uh and let us know uh how we can help the american people
00:11:33.400
republicans are finished finished if in the next two years they don't start doing something
00:11:41.580
well we'll we'll be we'll be glad to do it happy to come back on happy to tell you i'll communicate
00:11:46.600
the bottom line is kevin mccarthy does not have 218 and we are working right now to either put someone
00:11:52.740
else up or demand that we get the kind of changes that are necessary in order for someone to have
00:11:57.380
218 and the bottom line is you got a lot of good warriors in this town freedom caucus centric uh guys
00:12:04.220
like bob good guys like matt gates guys like uh you know the the whole freedom caucus won't rattle them
00:12:09.840
all off who are who are having good conversations about what we need to do and we'll keep you all
00:12:14.740
posted so chip i'm i'm i understand that uh if uh the senate is bombarded if we would get the senate
00:12:23.500
uh and say move away from uh uh mitch mcconnell it will make a huge uh difference it would pressure
00:12:34.360
anywhere who do we call do we call our local congressman do we call uh kevin mccarthy's office
00:12:40.920
what what what has to happen what would be the best use of people's time every member of the united
00:12:46.600
states house of representatives need the american people to uh have uh called their office and told
00:12:52.460
them that they want to change that they want leadership they want a fresh vision for where
00:12:57.660
republicans are going to take this country to set the stage for 2024 because it's now or never right
00:13:04.000
now is the time and lord willing we're going to have the gavels we need that we need that pressure i would
00:13:08.860
do it in the senate i would do that in the house if you're listening across the entire country call
00:13:14.300
your congressman or congresswoman and tell them you want to see a change in washington and let that
00:13:21.460
you know have the impact that i think it will so should they say we want to change in washington but
00:13:26.300
we want a change of leadership i would say that uh that we need new leadership in washington new
00:13:32.180
leadership okay thank you chip i appreciate it thanks glenn you bet congressman chip roy uh from the
00:13:38.220
great state of texas i always forget this how many senators do we have in texas two if two and
00:13:43.340
then one of them i know one of them's ted cruz yeah um who's it the other one is it's hard he's only
00:13:49.600
been in there since i was like a kid i think yeah john john john corman for corman corman something he's
00:13:58.080
he's so dynamic so dynamic and so notable and part of leadership yeah um you know i i just i if we
00:14:06.320
can't remember his name perhaps i can always remember chip roy's name yes that's a name i always
00:14:11.180
remember yeah and i'm just yeah it'd be interesting to see you know maybe someday we could have two
00:14:18.340
senators that represented texas it would be nice i know we're supposed to have two i know we have one
00:14:23.000
yeah yeah do we have a second i'm not sure i'm not seem like it most yeah i don't uh i don't see
00:14:28.520
him doing anything well anything that is of great note for the constitution or the republic so works
00:14:34.380
very closely with mitch mcconnell here's the thing that's important i'm telling you i i have not said
00:14:39.060
this to you uh over the last probably five or six years call your congressman because honestly i'm sick
00:14:45.120
of it i'm sick of it but if we concentrate right now in the next couple of weeks and you
00:14:52.780
call and call and call if they feel the republicans all across the country calling and saying we want
00:15:03.200
a change in leadership of the gop and we want to see action if we hold their feet to the fire
00:15:10.780
i have talked to enough congressmen like chip just said enough congressmen and enough senators to know
00:15:18.460
that will make a difference they're gonna hate you but you call call call call tweet do everything
00:15:28.020
you can to get this out put as much pressure right now because if we don't have leadership if we keep
00:15:36.020
with the same leadership that you know donald trump had remember these both of these guys are the ones
00:15:42.720
that were in office with donald trump they were the problem how come kevin mccarthy never gets labeled
00:15:50.180
like that how come he never gets labeled like that he's the guy call and demand a leadership change
00:15:59.940
you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program
00:16:06.560
mr bill o'reilly welcome to the program sir your thoughts on the week well it's not good
00:16:30.940
um not good for america and uh as you pointed out uh the arizona thing is they should um now go to
00:16:42.000
the federal level and maricopa county should have federal monitors there for the next election in two
00:16:48.120
years uh overseers they obviously can't do it i mean it's just like you know hitting a baseball some
00:16:54.740
people can't hit a baseball no matter what you do they're not gonna be able to hit it right and
00:16:58.760
you know the problem is is i disagree with you it should not go to the federal level just because
00:17:03.440
the feds are out of control and we won't don't want to do anything that federalizes an election
00:17:08.220
the state's got to get its crap together florida did it certainly arizona can do it okay well we
00:17:14.020
have a gentleman's disagreement yeah you've got to have accountability there and there is no
00:17:18.560
accountability and that's why this is happening you put a federal monitor in there from the federal
00:17:23.280
election commission the fec okay to oversee what they're doing and you provide another level of
00:17:30.900
protection for all americans if you just let them do it they can't do it back can't well the good news
00:17:39.160
is and apostrophe p and they can't do it in nevada either i don't i don't i don't i don't accept the
00:17:46.920
word can't there is do or do not and they choose to not do it no they can do it i don't believe
00:17:53.160
they're corrupt in that way i just believe they're incompetent incredibly incompetent
00:17:58.120
and well look we're not going to resolve that i mean you have your opinion i have mine
00:18:03.320
but it is horrible for the united states to have these two states nevada and arizona tiny states
00:18:12.800
not being able to count their votes yeah there was a huge election in brazil that was pretty uh
00:18:18.760
close and uh gee they counted the whole country in three hours yeah and that includes the amazon
00:18:23.980
jungle right exactly right exactly right what else back what else you want i want to know i i want to
00:18:32.100
know are do you think we're going to control the senate the house what we are who's we is there a
00:18:37.380
mouse in your pocket yes there is a mouse in my pocket i happen to be on the side of freedom
00:18:42.500
freedom i happen to be on the side of freedom if there's one word that comes to mind beside
00:18:48.160
scraggly beard uh when i say glenn beck it's freedom all right okay all right so my count is 220
00:18:56.140
republican and they get the house by a meager two votes at this point could be wrong but i think that's
00:19:04.740
the way it's going to play out 220 seats go to the republicans um and i don't know what the
00:19:12.380
corresponding number is for democrats but i do believe the gop will control uh the house the
00:19:18.960
senate um you know i don't know where walker gets 40 000 votes i don't know where he gets it that that's
00:19:25.780
what i'm looking at here so you okay you're gonna run off and and some people that voted the first time
00:19:31.220
around won't show up okay i know that um but it's probably going to break both uh warnick um walker
00:19:39.180
along those lines so where where does herschel get and remember we had a you know i almost admitted you
00:19:46.120
were right i barely i was very close to doing that because you said walker would win and i always had
00:19:51.040
a suspect there but i want walker to win i want him to win because it's so important to um neuter
00:19:59.680
the biden administration did you see him with the body language and hey here i am i'm president
00:20:06.620
biden you didn't get me oh you didn't get me oh i drove me nuts it's not what he said it was his
00:20:15.020
demeanor like i won i know which in a way he did um but not really no i think i think democrats won
00:20:25.640
in spite of him um it was the independent vote now that we know broke um by four points for the
00:20:35.000
democrats that's what did it the overall vote in the house is five percent plus gop which you know
00:20:43.140
when you compare the last nbc news poll which was totally bogus um it shows you that most americans
00:20:50.540
wanted republicans to control the house the problem was the individual districts um so more
00:20:58.540
americans by a fairly significant number voted for house republicans but there's biden up there
00:21:05.160
who is absolutely destroying the fabric of the american economy um and which shocked me and and shock
00:21:13.180
does not um a word you usually use it would shock me is that so many millions of americans voted against
00:21:20.820
their own self-interest i mean i'm sitting there going do you not see your wallet can you not count
00:21:28.100
the money in your wallet it is far less than it was two years ago so that that is something that causes a
00:21:36.380
lot of people uh uh concern and and questions so explain that okay i will thank you for asking and
00:21:45.820
this is my column on sunday at noon on billoreilly.com where everybody should check in with us please
00:21:51.640
it's all about january 6th and i never thought it would be i thought that was in the past in history but
00:22:02.580
it isn't so many independent voters are still furious about what happened on january 6th and as you know
00:22:13.500
in every single house race senate race deniers deniers deniers that's what they were campaigning on not
00:22:23.780
the economy not the border not violent crime it was all deniers uh january 6th blank and they
00:22:32.560
bought it these independent voters which probably many of them lean left anyway bought it but that is an
00:22:41.000
open wound in america i thought it was stitched up but it isn't it isn't the the pictures and the
00:22:50.460
remembrance of january 6th not for the republican side they've kind of reconciled okay it happened we
00:22:57.440
don't like it but now we're going to move ahead and try to improve the country but for the independent
00:23:03.200
voters exploited by the huge money behind the democratic movement that january 6th thing did it
00:23:12.280
it was an abortion it was that i live in new york and zeldon lost okay to hockle incomprehensible
00:23:21.440
talking about people voting against their own self-interest nine out of ten african americans in new
00:23:27.320
york city voted for hockle and there are dead bodies in every black neighborhood stacking up
00:23:34.180
because hockle will enforce the law they're voting against their own safety but every blank and
00:23:42.000
commercial that you saw on television was zeldin's a denier zeldin's this zeldin's trump zeldin's a nazi
00:23:50.880
the whole thing and i i'm going are you kidding this isn't going to work it worked i i find that
00:24:01.820
incomprehensible um but if that is true bill there's no other rational explanation back
00:24:09.900
people are getting hammered by the economy they can't will continue to get hammered by it
00:24:16.480
okay the violent crime where i live you can see it and the border arizona how many more illegal
00:24:26.560
migrants do you want arizona how many more do you want and you don't vote for the republicans
00:24:33.300
who would stop it what's the matter with you okay you know i'm sitting there going oh my god
00:24:39.700
all right so bill if that is true that january 6th was what people were actually voting and
00:24:49.160
independence you can't win without independence can't right absolutely what does that mean then
00:24:55.980
for 2024 because that wouldn't go well for donald trump but it's two years hence word of the day
00:25:03.800
hence two years hence and it won't be i i don't think but it all depends on who the republicans run
00:25:12.480
so if they run trump forget it so it's wait wait wait what did forget what forget it's going to be
00:25:18.380
january 6th election denier boom boom boom that's the whole campaign right okay nothing else i mean we
00:25:27.380
could be in a depression we could be in a herbert hoover territory and it'll still be that if it's
00:25:34.100
desantis the only other viable republican at this point desantis can counter as he did in florida
00:25:41.780
so florida there was a red wave and in your state texas there was a kind of a mini red wave there
00:25:48.920
desantis can do that trump cannot do it and that is something that all the mega people
00:25:56.560
um need to consider i mean you're saying this you're a good friend of donald trump i consider
00:26:02.960
donald trump a friend governed very well he did that's another thing that drives me absolutely up
00:26:09.480
the wall that if you compare his four years of governance to biden's two years yeah it's just
00:26:15.660
not even on the same not even close not even close but he couldn't get away from the past trump
00:26:23.000
he can't leave it and that will doom him so what is your advice to because my advice to both parties
00:26:34.760
is uh to both ronda sanus and donald trump i started the show with this please don't eat each other we
00:26:41.400
we need both of you we need both of you don't eat each other that's insane um i saw your interview
00:26:48.720
with trump uh it was a you know that you did uh during the election night right um and i don't
00:26:57.440
know if donald trump is capable of disciplining himself and it's always been that way beck you
00:27:04.920
saw the show i did with him almost a year ago you saw it with your own eyes it was a totally different
00:27:12.720
donald trump because we talked about his administration issues i told him i'm not
00:27:19.120
getting into the election so you know because it's me he didn't go there and and it would if he had
00:27:25.480
just could capture that but i don't think he's capable of doing it there's no gain for donald trump
00:27:34.380
saying ron de sanctimonious no gain he gains not one vote he gains no good will to do it so why would
00:27:45.140
you do it and that is the mystery of the universe so as a friend of his what do you tell the supporters
00:27:54.640
of both ron and uh donald trump who truly believe that they are fighting for the soul of america
00:28:03.180
how do we how do we how do we as people deal with this possible fight coming well voters have to make
00:28:12.940
up their own mind on who they want to uh lead them i mean i never intrude on that i'm not going to
00:28:19.120
endorse de santis or trump one or the other right i'm going to do what i always do i'm going to say
00:28:25.480
this is effective this isn't effective you know i was wrong about the red wave and i that just pains
00:28:31.460
me so much to say it because i based my analysis on facts but emotion ruled again it was just like
00:28:40.240
the election of 2020 emotion put biden in the white house and in 222 emotion stopped the red wave
00:28:50.220
so i'm saying to myself okay so now we're the united states of emotion we're no longer rational
00:28:57.020
voters who evaluate effective governance it's all about emotion propaganda manipulation now money
00:29:04.620
and that's very very frightening should be to everybody
00:29:13.300
it's been an exhausting week i imagine for you as well as everybody else um
00:29:23.800
it has uh it has put us through the ringer um and i i've been thinking about you a lot
00:29:31.480
um this week when i did the the coverage uh it was it was difficult to do our election night coverage
00:29:41.240
because immediately natural man's instinct is to immediately uh find fault and blame
00:29:50.220
and uh and declare the path we must go on the older i get the more uh i realize how foolish i was to
00:30:01.100
you know demand that this path be taken or thinking that in my arrogance that i was right about everything
00:30:20.920
i mean honestly if i would have gotten everything i
00:30:23.920
would have wanted i would have been married to farrah fawcett for a while
00:30:30.660
it's a good thing that i didn't i don't get my way all of the time
00:30:39.540
i know that everything in my life that i have thought it has to happen this way
00:30:51.420
it takes me a while but i usually look back and go
00:31:15.420
donald trump to be president of the united states today but
