00:00:00.000 i mean i'm not trying to bum people out i'm just i think you did no i think you are i just i'm
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 0.52
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 0.52
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 0.98
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 0.99
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 1.00
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 0.97
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 0.96
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 0.98
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 0.63
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 0.73
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
00:29:08.760 the best of the greg back program
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
00:30:07.980 and the more i realize that
00:30:10.540 there is a god
00:30:14.980 and almost everything in my life
00:30:18.960 uh
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
00:30:27.600 um you know
00:30:29.240 uh so
00:30:30.660 it's a good thing that i didn't i don't get my way all of the time
00:30:34.520 although that one i'm still a little
00:30:36.280 you know upset about god but
00:30:38.360 um
00:30:39.540 i know that everything in my life that i have thought it has to happen this way
00:30:46.040 or i want it to happen this way
00:30:48.260 when it doesn't happen
00:30:49.820 i uh
00:30:51.420 it takes me a while but i usually look back and go
00:30:54.980 holy cow
00:30:56.220 look how that worked out
00:30:58.360 and the biggest example for me
00:31:00.140 is donald trump
00:31:02.240 look how that worked out
00:31:04.280 i didn't see anything but disaster coming
00:31:07.540 but look how that worked out
00:31:09.800 um
00:31:11.400 when when we have joe biden not winning
00:31:13.880 i would have really liked
00:31:15.420 donald trump to be president of the united states today but
00:31:18.500 uh that's not the way it worked out
00:31:20.720 we have joe biden as president
00:31:22.820 but even this will work to
00:31:26.360 god's advantage
00:31:28.040 in some way or another we will look back
00:31:30.180 and we will say
00:31:31.380 wow
00:31:31.960 never thought that
00:31:34.140 you're an amazing audience
00:31:40.000 people have told me
00:31:44.720 you know
00:31:45.280 you attract who you are
00:31:47.240 i don't think so
00:31:48.820 i don't think so
00:31:49.860 because i think as an audience
00:31:51.040 you are much better than i am
00:31:52.260 uh
00:31:53.520 you're amazing
00:31:54.220 you have
00:31:55.940 helped rescue people
00:31:57.020 from afghanistan
00:31:58.120 i mean
00:31:58.540 you have played the role
00:31:59.840 of oscar schindler
00:32:00.700 even though you don't know that
00:32:02.320 you have
00:32:02.840 you give and serve
00:32:05.520 when there are hurricanes
00:32:06.440 and disasters
00:32:07.060 and nobody ever
00:32:07.960 points that out
00:32:09.160 nobody ever says anything
00:32:10.660 you spring into action
00:32:13.180 whenever there is a need
00:32:14.960 i am constantly
00:32:18.320 amazed by your tenacity
00:32:20.100 even in the face
00:32:22.400 of your heartaches
00:32:23.760 and your worries
00:32:24.700 and your disappointment
00:32:25.760 disappointment this week
00:32:30.600 was kind of huge
00:32:31.300 i'm not sure
00:32:32.320 i'm not sure if it's because
00:32:34.340 we just hoped
00:32:35.120 for more
00:32:36.000 or we expected more
00:32:37.300 for sure
00:32:37.820 um
00:32:39.320 we painted a bright horizon
00:32:41.740 of political hope
00:32:43.460 and while there was
00:32:45.220 some good news
00:32:46.120 the red wave didn't happen
00:32:47.860 like we hoped for
00:32:49.040 but let's wait
00:32:51.100 till it's all
00:32:51.720 counted
00:32:52.140 and done
00:32:53.000 because i think
00:32:54.480 there are many
00:32:54.860 bright spots
00:32:55.740 as well
00:32:56.440 i think the biggest
00:32:58.700 disappointment for me
00:32:59.660 this week
00:33:00.080 is to realize
00:33:01.100 there are so
00:33:01.940 many people
00:33:04.060 who see a
00:33:05.560 completely
00:33:06.300 different
00:33:07.180 future
00:33:07.940 for america
00:33:08.960 and i mean
00:33:09.620 it's not like
00:33:12.120 you know
00:33:12.680 this was as close
00:33:13.620 as we ever got
00:33:14.540 to a real debate
00:33:16.060 and i've said
00:33:17.640 for years
00:33:18.060 i would love
00:33:18.820 i'd love
00:33:19.580 mike lee
00:33:20.120 or ted cruz
00:33:21.200 and bernie sanders
00:33:22.280 to debate
00:33:22.880 and let's debate
00:33:24.020 real socialism
00:33:25.080 you know
00:33:26.000 let's really debate
00:33:26.900 what the left
00:33:27.480 wants to do
00:33:28.200 and and really
00:33:29.180 go deep
00:33:29.920 and then let
00:33:30.700 people choose
00:33:31.360 this is the closest
00:33:32.880 we've ever been to that
00:33:34.060 and people are
00:33:35.040 hurting
00:33:35.700 and i i just
00:33:39.420 can't get my arms
00:33:40.260 around how many
00:33:40.880 people can choose
00:33:41.880 darkness
00:33:42.540 and chaos
00:33:43.920 but i'm sure
00:33:45.100 they feel the same
00:33:45.760 way about us
00:33:46.460 one of the
00:33:49.020 discussions that we
00:33:49.700 had on our
00:33:50.180 election coverage
00:33:51.020 on the blaze
00:33:52.080 was whether
00:33:52.680 biden biden
00:33:54.100 was the worst
00:33:54.700 president in history
00:33:55.840 oh there was an
00:33:56.960 argument for
00:33:57.500 woodrow wilson
00:33:58.140 i'll let you know
00:33:59.340 but that can be
00:34:01.860 debated in a dozen
00:34:02.800 different ways
00:34:03.540 but regardless
00:34:05.660 if biden is the
00:34:06.660 worst or not
00:34:07.200 we are surely
00:34:07.880 living in what
00:34:09.160 is a very
00:34:09.840 complicated
00:34:10.600 complex
00:34:11.360 and challenging
00:34:13.100 time to say
00:34:14.080 the least
00:34:14.600 and that
00:34:15.640 leaves i think
00:34:16.960 almost everybody
00:34:17.940 in america
00:34:19.100 overwhelmed
00:34:19.760 and exhausted
00:34:21.200 and as we
00:34:23.760 discussed the
00:34:24.240 politics of the
00:34:24.920 moment
00:34:25.300 and we
00:34:27.720 we saw that
00:34:29.220 the politics
00:34:29.880 of the moment
00:34:30.680 are horrendous
00:34:31.960 i think it was
00:34:34.100 jason whitlock
00:34:34.840 that brought up
00:34:35.560 with tears in
00:34:36.140 his eyes
00:34:36.660 the evil
00:34:38.340 that surrounds
00:34:39.100 us
00:34:39.540 and how insidious
00:34:40.620 it is
00:34:41.160 how blatant
00:34:42.340 it is
00:34:43.180 and many of
00:34:46.080 our fellow
00:34:46.440 americans
00:34:47.100 are willing
00:34:48.780 to choose
00:34:49.520 that
00:34:49.980 it's no longer
00:34:51.140 you know
00:34:52.280 safe
00:34:53.320 rare
00:34:54.080 and legal
00:34:54.880 it's i
00:34:55.920 celebrate
00:34:56.580 come on
00:34:57.360 let's all go
00:34:58.020 have an abortion
00:34:58.740 and not just
00:35:00.300 an abortion
00:35:00.980 but in
00:35:03.060 after birth
00:35:04.080 abortion now
00:35:05.100 i can't believe
00:35:09.000 how many people
00:35:09.600 are choosing
00:35:10.140 this with
00:35:11.120 their eyes
00:35:12.080 supposedly
00:35:12.600 wide open
00:35:13.280 it is truly
00:35:14.140 like they
00:35:14.560 have scales
00:35:15.080 on their
00:35:15.440 eyes
00:35:15.760 and they
00:35:16.720 are destroying
00:35:17.440 the world
00:35:18.300 that we
00:35:19.960 have struggled
00:35:20.760 to pull
00:35:21.400 ourselves out
00:35:22.460 of this
00:35:22.940 darkness
00:35:23.360 for centuries
00:35:25.100 and so
00:35:28.400 many of us
00:35:28.880 are running
00:35:29.160 around trying
00:35:29.560 to put
00:35:29.860 out fires
00:35:30.440 that it
00:35:30.780 seems to
00:35:31.200 be gobbling
00:35:31.860 up our
00:35:32.240 world
00:35:32.560 if we
00:35:32.920 if we
00:35:33.960 lose focus
00:35:34.580 on the
00:35:34.860 bigger
00:35:35.060 picture
00:35:35.440 so how
00:35:38.700 do we
00:35:39.060 lift
00:35:39.460 ourselves
00:35:39.960 up out
00:35:40.760 of
00:35:41.080 immorality
00:35:41.800 and anger
00:35:42.460 and arrogance
00:35:43.140 and greed
00:35:43.960 and hatred
00:35:44.600 and jealousy
00:35:45.360 and fear
00:35:46.240 that is
00:35:47.680 gripping our
00:35:48.160 nation
00:35:48.440 and the
00:35:48.720 world
00:35:49.040 i mean the
00:35:51.940 culture is
00:35:52.620 crumbling
00:35:53.000 around us
00:35:53.940 i just had a
00:35:55.120 conversation with
00:35:56.020 my wife
00:35:56.600 yesterday and
00:35:57.600 said honey it
00:35:58.560 is everywhere
00:36:00.240 it is everywhere
00:36:01.980 there is no
00:36:02.840 space
00:36:03.440 there is no
00:36:04.540 place where
00:36:05.780 you are safe
00:36:06.780 it's everywhere
00:36:08.080 but now is the
00:36:12.660 time we need
00:36:13.100 to focus
00:36:13.760 more than
00:36:14.620 ever on
00:36:15.100 things that
00:36:15.580 are real
00:36:16.220 eternal
00:36:17.540 true
00:36:18.700 things we
00:36:20.760 taught we
00:36:21.280 were taught
00:36:21.760 when we
00:36:22.080 were kids
00:36:22.460 things of
00:36:23.060 god
00:36:23.440 we need
00:36:24.840 to pay
00:36:25.120 attention to
00:36:25.700 our spiritual
00:36:26.560 self
00:36:27.140 and not
00:36:28.300 trust the
00:36:29.120 doctrines of
00:36:29.860 man anymore
00:36:30.840 we have to
00:36:33.300 seek
00:36:33.820 and delight
00:36:37.080 in the
00:36:38.000 truth
00:36:38.460 we need
00:36:40.800 to find
00:36:41.140 our joy
00:36:41.800 in truth
00:36:42.680 we have
00:36:44.680 to turn
00:36:45.160 away
00:36:45.640 clearly
00:36:47.140 from the
00:36:47.660 deception
00:36:48.140 that is
00:36:48.720 all around
00:36:49.360 us
00:36:49.760 i'm not
00:36:51.980 angry with
00:36:52.660 those people
00:36:53.420 who voted
00:36:53.880 to kill
00:36:54.240 babies after
00:36:54.880 birth
00:36:55.320 but i will
00:36:57.480 stand against
00:36:58.200 what they do
00:36:58.900 and what they
00:36:59.460 believe and i
00:37:00.240 will call them
00:37:00.800 out as an
00:37:01.320 example of
00:37:01.840 what happens
00:37:02.440 when people
00:37:03.000 lose their
00:37:03.480 way from
00:37:03.980 truth and
00:37:04.620 decency
00:37:05.180 and god
00:37:05.760 and i
00:37:06.560 know i
00:37:07.380 am on the
00:37:07.920 right side
00:37:08.420 of history
00:37:08.960 because we
00:37:10.060 have been
00:37:10.800 here before
00:37:11.620 we fought
00:37:19.620 a battle
00:37:20.080 this week
00:37:20.660 the smoke
00:37:21.940 hasn't even
00:37:22.380 cleared yet
00:37:22.960 we don't
00:37:24.440 know what
00:37:24.680 the count
00:37:25.040 is
00:37:25.360 but one
00:37:28.920 battle is
00:37:29.360 not a war
00:37:29.920 and if
00:37:31.680 you stop
00:37:32.160 fighting this
00:37:33.360 battle at
00:37:33.920 any point
00:37:34.540 we will
00:37:36.460 lose the
00:37:36.880 war
00:37:37.120 we just
00:37:38.940 have to
00:37:39.180 be smarter
00:37:39.820 we have
00:37:41.520 to be
00:37:41.760 kinder
00:37:42.320 we have
00:37:44.240 to never
00:37:44.680 play that
00:37:45.620 game
00:37:46.080 because once
00:37:46.840 you start
00:37:47.380 walking into
00:37:48.140 evil it
00:37:48.780 will suck
00:37:49.480 you in
00:37:49.900 because it
00:37:50.680 is dark
00:37:52.160 if we want
00:37:54.600 to save
00:37:54.940 our way
00:37:55.360 of life
00:37:56.460 we have
00:37:56.960 to lift
00:37:57.520 ourselves
00:37:58.040 up out
00:37:58.880 of this
00:37:59.460 world
00:37:59.840 even this
00:38:00.440 america
00:38:01.080 that was
00:38:02.180 so noble
00:38:03.000 lift ourselves
00:38:04.900 out of
00:38:05.820 that because
00:38:06.700 it's going
00:38:07.440 down into
00:38:08.180 places we
00:38:08.840 don't want
00:38:09.580 to go
00:38:10.120 and it
00:38:11.980 means giving
00:38:12.720 away all
00:38:14.060 of our own
00:38:14.540 shortcomings
00:38:15.200 and foibles
00:38:15.840 we can't
00:38:18.140 focus on
00:38:19.080 the lack
00:38:19.940 of nobility
00:38:20.720 of others
00:38:21.360 because that
00:38:23.620 assumes that
00:38:24.140 we're noble
00:38:24.800 and I don't
00:38:25.540 think I
00:38:26.020 am
00:38:26.300 we have
00:38:28.900 to lift
00:38:29.440 ourselves
00:38:30.040 and our
00:38:31.400 families
00:38:31.940 to a more
00:38:33.540 noble place
00:38:34.500 we must
00:38:35.780 emotionally
00:38:36.340 mentally
00:38:36.840 spiritually
00:38:37.560 rise above
00:38:39.960 the
00:38:40.460 immorality
00:38:41.940 that is
00:38:42.420 penetrating
00:38:43.320 every
00:38:44.220 surface
00:38:44.940 of our
00:38:45.440 country
00:38:45.820 as we
00:38:48.540 live in
00:38:49.400 the world
00:38:49.940 but focus
00:38:50.760 beyond the
00:38:51.660 world
00:38:52.060 and if
00:38:54.160 we do
00:38:54.500 this in
00:38:55.300 the right
00:38:55.920 spirit
00:38:56.560 and align
00:38:57.680 our hearts
00:38:58.360 with his
00:38:58.820 will not
00:38:59.240 ours
00:38:59.640 we will be
00:39:00.820 blessed with
00:39:01.320 the charity
00:39:01.900 and the
00:39:02.480 humility
00:39:02.980 and the
00:39:03.580 generosity
00:39:04.160 and the
00:39:04.760 kindness
00:39:05.240 and the
00:39:05.780 self-discipline
00:39:06.760 and the
00:39:07.520 peace
00:39:08.140 inside of
00:39:09.240 ourselves
00:39:09.720 peace on
00:39:10.840 earth
00:39:11.080 goodwill
00:39:11.560 toward men
00:39:12.140 that doesn't
00:39:13.760 mean there
00:39:14.100 won't be
00:39:14.440 any wars
00:39:15.640 it means
00:39:16.380 there will
00:39:16.800 be peace
00:39:17.520 in our
00:39:18.120 hearts
00:39:18.700 and that
00:39:20.760 is what's
00:39:21.280 needed to
00:39:21.780 overcome the
00:39:22.540 darkness
00:39:23.060 around us
00:39:24.140 after a
00:39:30.160 tough week
00:39:30.580 I asked
00:39:31.280 you I
00:39:31.500 did this
00:39:32.240 this morning
00:39:32.720 I said
00:39:34.020 you know
00:39:34.360 Lord I
00:39:34.820 haven't talked
00:39:35.280 to you as
00:39:35.580 much as I
00:39:36.040 needed to
00:39:36.440 this week
00:39:37.000 I apologize
00:39:38.280 for that
00:39:38.940 let God
00:39:43.080 and others
00:39:43.500 know through
00:39:44.040 your prayers
00:39:44.740 and your
00:39:45.280 actions
00:39:45.720 that you
00:39:46.580 are serious
00:39:47.540 about prevailing
00:39:48.640 against the
00:39:49.380 status quo
00:39:50.100 steal yourself
00:39:53.060 ask God
00:39:54.400 to enlighten
00:39:55.000 your mind
00:39:55.460 and send
00:39:56.000 you all
00:39:56.360 the help
00:39:56.740 you need
00:39:57.280 today
00:39:58.120 our job
00:39:58.880 is not
00:39:59.260 just to
00:39:59.760 save the
00:40:00.200 republic
00:40:00.620 today our
00:40:01.900 job just
00:40:02.500 as importantly
00:40:03.820 is to
00:40:04.460 prepare
00:40:05.020 ourselves
00:40:05.840 and those
00:40:06.640 around us
00:40:07.340 for what
00:40:07.980 is coming
00:40:09.140 we have
00:40:11.340 to be
00:40:11.660 ready
00:40:12.180 and worthy
00:40:13.400 for the
00:40:14.120 tasks ahead
00:40:14.900 I don't
00:40:18.140 know what
00:40:18.440 I actually
00:40:18.920 believe about
00:40:19.620 the times
00:40:20.100 that we're
00:40:20.360 living in
00:40:20.920 because I
00:40:21.400 think people
00:40:21.900 have thought
00:40:22.580 these things
00:40:23.300 many times
00:40:24.440 and they
00:40:25.360 were always
00:40:25.820 wrong so
00:40:26.340 we're probably
00:40:26.900 wrong if you
00:40:27.600 think maybe
00:40:28.300 maybe but
00:40:30.740 if it is
00:40:31.440 we were the
00:40:33.140 ones chosen
00:40:34.040 to prepare
00:40:35.600 the way
00:40:36.100 and that's
00:40:37.160 not going to
00:40:37.460 be done with
00:40:37.900 anger and
00:40:38.400 hatred
00:40:38.740 we have
00:40:42.800 to rejoice
00:40:43.420 in our
00:40:43.960 agency
00:40:44.640 and by
00:40:47.520 example
00:40:48.000 leave
00:40:48.460 lead those
00:40:49.700 who want
00:40:50.480 it to
00:40:51.660 value their
00:40:52.640 agency
00:40:53.200 increase our
00:40:54.880 faith in
00:40:55.360 God and
00:40:55.880 in those
00:40:56.320 who are
00:40:57.140 choosing a
00:40:57.860 righteous
00:40:58.160 path
00:40:58.680 I don't
00:41:00.060 have any
00:41:00.820 enemies
00:41:01.440 you are
00:41:03.340 not an
00:41:03.860 enemy of
00:41:04.760 mine
00:41:05.220 you may
00:41:06.740 be an
00:41:07.080 enemy of
00:41:07.580 his but
00:41:08.560 he solves
00:41:09.260 that but
00:41:10.620 I will
00:41:11.180 not go
00:41:11.980 with you
00:41:12.520 down a
00:41:13.060 path
00:41:13.520 I'm not
00:41:20.300 going to
00:41:20.620 I'm I'm
00:41:21.720 going to
00:41:21.940 make the
00:41:22.260 choices I
00:41:23.000 can make
00:41:23.820 I'm not
00:41:25.200 going to
00:41:25.520 make the
00:41:25.840 choices for
00:41:26.480 others
00:41:26.900 we have to
00:41:30.740 take care of
00:41:31.280 our daily
00:41:31.760 needs
00:41:32.220 we have
00:41:33.780 to look
00:41:34.240 for the
00:41:35.000 needs in
00:41:35.760 others
00:41:36.260 we have
00:41:38.060 to be
00:41:38.640 surrounded
00:41:39.400 by people
00:41:40.300 of like
00:41:40.900 mind
00:41:41.380 hear me
00:41:43.720 on that
00:41:44.420 so don't
00:41:47.120 let the
00:41:47.500 events of
00:41:48.080 this week
00:41:48.580 stop you
00:41:50.000 in any
00:41:50.460 way
00:41:50.780 cloud you
00:41:51.980 slow you
00:41:52.460 down
00:41:52.860 confuse
00:41:53.400 you
00:41:53.920 you must
00:41:56.480 become
00:41:57.080 who you
00:41:57.800 have been
00:41:58.260 called to
00:41:58.820 be
00:41:59.160 and here's
00:42:01.260 the good
00:42:01.480 news
00:42:01.780 you know
00:42:03.200 the founders
00:42:04.040 saved this
00:42:04.640 country
00:42:05.100 or started
00:42:06.560 this country
00:42:07.240 with under
00:42:08.540 20%
00:42:09.320 no matter
00:42:13.980 how you
00:42:14.420 look at it
00:42:15.020 win or
00:42:15.380 lose
00:42:15.740 50%
00:42:16.820 of the
00:42:17.440 country
00:42:17.820 knows this
00:42:19.020 is wrong
00:42:19.600 knows what's
00:42:21.440 happening
00:42:21.800 there are
00:42:22.980 those who
00:42:23.540 are claiming
00:42:24.080 it's
00:42:25.300 spiritual
00:42:26.060 darkness
00:42:26.640 but they
00:42:27.920 are
00:42:28.900 on the
00:42:29.860 side
00:42:30.320 of
00:42:30.880 taking
00:42:32.200 people's
00:42:32.700 choice
00:42:32.980 away
00:42:33.380 and I
00:42:34.340 mean
00:42:34.640 their
00:42:35.160 choice
00:42:35.580 to live
00:42:36.080 their
00:42:36.300 life
00:42:36.780 not their
00:42:37.520 choice
00:42:37.800 to kill
00:42:38.200 a baby
00:42:38.620 but their
00:42:39.440 choice
00:42:39.760 to live
00:42:40.380 their own
00:42:40.960 life
00:42:41.440 to have
00:42:42.200 their own
00:42:42.680 opinion
00:42:43.160 to follow
00:42:44.120 the dictates
00:42:44.880 of their
00:42:45.220 conscience
00:42:45.720 that
00:42:47.100 that is
00:42:49.480 the dark
00:42:50.080 side if you
00:42:50.780 are trying
00:42:51.200 to squash
00:42:51.900 those things
00:42:52.740 God does
00:42:56.040 not call
00:42:56.780 us as a
00:42:57.480 collective
00:42:57.880 he calls
00:42:58.600 us each
00:42:59.260 in our
00:43:00.220 own time
00:43:00.880 as an
00:43:01.640 individual
00:43:02.200 find strength
00:43:04.160 in him
00:43:04.820 strength
00:43:05.880 and hope
00:43:06.980 in one
00:43:08.820 another
00:43:09.180 because there
00:43:10.320 are millions
00:43:11.120 all around
00:43:11.800 us
00:43:12.240 just like
00:43:13.400 you
00:43:13.740 that are
00:43:15.620 standing
00:43:16.400 up
00:43:16.960 na-na-na-na 0.55
00:43:18.960 na-na-na
