Summary
Should Donald Trump be the next president of the United States? Should he be the president as an old man like this? Should he even be a candidate at all? Is he on the short list for the 2020 Republican presidential nomination? And what are the chances that he s actually a serious contender?

00:00:00.000
Today is a fun Friday broadcast. We have Bridget Phetasy joining us to talk about
00:00:04.900
the old man. We all know he's an old man and he's doing old man things. Should he be the
00:00:12.220
president of the United States as an old man like this? He's completely checked out. We also have
00:00:19.100
J.D. Vance on to talk about meetings that he had with Trump yesterday in Washington, D.C.
00:00:24.240
that went very, very well. Looks like the Republicans are starting to come together.
00:00:28.360
Then we have a scientist on, Charles Bueller. He has been searching for a way to put objects
00:00:40.620
into space without propellant. He has come up with something now. He works with NASA. He's
00:00:48.460
got his own company that has been researching this now. He's been working on this with others
00:00:54.660
around the world for about 10 years now. And they have actually can move things without any
00:01:04.500
propellant. Like your airplane, you'd be sitting in the engine, but there is no engine. They don't
00:01:10.940
even know exactly how it works. It seems to be defying all physics. I have never found myself
00:01:19.280
in an interview where I didn't even know where to begin. I thought I understood some of the
00:01:27.040
ramifications of it. Um, but as we got into it, no, I, no, I don't. Uh, we could go to the moon
00:01:35.620
in two hours. Uh, we could go to Mars in five days. It's remarkable technology and a remarkable
00:01:45.840
discovery. Uh, and that's all on today's podcast. First, let me tell you about pre-born. It is hard
00:01:52.360
to believe, but this month marks two years since Roe versus Wade was overturned. We still celebrate that
00:01:59.640
decision, but at the same time with a good comes a lot of bad. The number of abortions actually has
00:02:05.060
increased after Roe increase last year. They were at the highest since 2012. There's a lot of work to
00:02:12.360
do. The problem is, is this, um, this abortion drug. Now they can mail it to you. You don't really need a
00:02:19.620
doctor. I mean, it's, it's crazy. This, this summer, we are going to find out if, uh, the abortion cult
00:02:27.620
will win on that front. There's a chance that that changes in the Supreme court as well.
00:02:34.740
But pre-born is the largest pro-life organization in the country, and they're leading the charge to
00:02:39.740
put an end to the atrocity of abortion. Every day they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as
00:02:46.480
providing them help for up to two years after the baby is born. And you are the key. When a mom sees
00:02:52.620
her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears the heartbeat, she is twice as likely to consider
00:02:57.140
choosing life for her baby. If you have the means, would you contribute $28 a month? That is
00:03:04.660
the price of one ultrasound. You could be saving 12 babies every year. Or if you have the means and
00:03:11.100
you'd like to make a real leadership, uh, uh, donation, please do. You can help them. A donation
00:03:18.320
of 5,000 will sponsor ultrasounds entire nation national network for 24 hours. This is the largest
00:03:24.720
network in the country right now. You can donate dial pound two 50, say the keyword, baby pound two 50
00:03:44.640
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:03:48.840
JD Vance is on the phone with us. JD Vance, Senator from Ohio, also on a short list, uh, for Donald Trump.
00:03:58.020
Uh, I'm sure he's going to, he's just dying to talk about that because they always are. Everybody
00:04:03.180
who's on the short list. They're like, Oh, please ask me about that. So go ahead. Spill it. Spill the
00:04:08.980
beans. My favorite topic. I said this, I have not talked to Trump about it. Uh, yes. You know,
00:04:20.340
we, we, I'm aware that they're, they're looking at me and I think that they're probably looking at 20
00:04:24.820
other people and I'm sure he'll make his decision. Um, and if it's me, then, uh, like I said,
00:04:30.560
repeatedly, I'd be interested in it. Cause I think it's important to help him because if he doesn't
00:04:34.080
win this election, this country's in a tough spot. So now that's pretty much it. You, you were in the
00:04:39.980
meeting with him yesterday, right? I was. Yeah. Yeah. Cause he said the guy I'm going to pick
00:04:46.240
is most likely in this room with us right now. So I didn't see that, but, um, unfortunately for the
00:04:53.400
odds makers, there were like 49 other people in the room. So it doesn't help. Yeah. Um, but
00:04:57.920
let me just sort of set the stage. I mean, one, it was a very positive meeting and you, you obviously
00:05:05.680
have people who are more allied with the president and his agenda, you know, like me and Bill Haggerty,
00:05:11.700
Marco Rubio and so forth. And then you, you also have people in the room who are very, you know,
00:05:16.240
even in the last couple of months have been very critical of the president. And I think what you saw
00:05:21.440
is just a recognition that we have to unify as a Republican party and win this election. And look,
00:05:26.180
there are guys that are, there are guys that are running that I wish their primary opponents had
00:05:30.800
won. And I wish we had a different candidate representing the Republican party, but there
00:05:35.420
isn't a single person running, at least in the Senate, who I would rather have a Democrat take
00:05:39.640
their spot. The other thing that's really interesting, Glenn, is, is just you to realize that the internal
00:05:44.560
psychology of Republican senators right now is they're looking at every single one of these
00:05:50.860
Senate ballots and the polls suggest that whether it's by five points or 15 points,
00:05:56.920
our Senate candidates are running behind Donald Trump in the core battleground state. So if we
00:06:01.300
actually want to take back the Senate with a solid majority, we need the president to help us close
00:06:06.640
the margin between our guys and his margin. And I think he will help us do that as we get down the
00:06:12.520
stretch here. But there's just a recognition here that he's tapped into something, especially in this
00:06:17.580
cycle. And if we can get that, that thing to reverberate to the benefit of our Senate candidates,
00:06:23.140
you know, we can win a major, major victory in the United States Senate.
00:06:27.580
And he was really kind of conciliatory yesterday. He seemed to be in good spirits and,
00:06:36.140
you know, recognizing that we, you know, we don't all agree on everything. At least that was the
00:06:41.800
impression I got from his conversation. Would you, would you agree with that?
00:06:47.420
I agree with that, Glenn. I mean, look, he was, he was extremely friendly. He was obviously in a good
00:06:51.860
mood. I think, you know, he, he made us, he was very friendly to Mitch McConnell, of course, who's not
00:06:59.000
always been the best ally of Donald Trump. He was friendly to everybody in the room. And, you know,
00:07:04.820
he said like, look, even when we disagree, our disagreements pale in comparison to the Democrats.
00:07:10.920
And we're at this stage, you know, and I've done this now twice, Glenn, I've been in politics for
00:07:16.660
two cycles where right now we're sort of in the hurt feeling stage where a lot of people who didn't
00:07:22.660
win primaries, grassroots activists, donors, state chairman, and so forth, they're kind of frustrated
00:07:29.000
and they're exhausted from the primary season. And they're not thinking about the future.
00:07:33.580
And I just think, you know, Trump is maybe the only guy in the party who can sort of stand before
00:07:38.420
everybody and say, look, yeah, maybe your guy didn't win. Maybe things haven't always,
00:07:42.780
we haven't always agreed on everything, but, but now it's time to save the country. And to do that,
00:07:46.780
we have to win. He said yesterday that he was, and I'm going to get to something that you want to
00:07:52.200
talk about the DEI programs going away, which is so important. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
00:07:57.420
We'll get to that in a second, but one more question on this meeting yesterday with Trump.
00:08:00.340
Um, he said that he, uh, wanted to abolish the income tax and replace it with tariffs.
00:08:12.440
So that was not in our meeting. I think that may have been in another meeting at that day. I saw the
00:08:17.760
headlines, uh, but that was not an, in our meeting. I mean, look, this is a fascinating proposal and we
00:08:25.220
could talk, uh, for a while about it, but you know what we have to sort of think about when we tax
00:08:30.840
something, we get less of it and we should ask ourselves, what do we, you know, we have to raise
00:08:35.960
revenues for the military and social security and so forth. Like what do we actually want to raise
00:08:40.840
revenues from? And, and my, my view would be, we want to tax production less. We want to tax making
00:08:48.040
stuff in China more. Well, that's what a tariff fundamentally does. So whether you get rid of
00:08:52.500
the whole income tax, I think it's a really smart idea to say, we want to reward people for making
00:08:58.500
things. We want to reward productive work. We don't want to reward making stuff in the home country of
00:09:05.700
our chief rival. And that's, I think fundamentally where Trump's head is on this matter.
00:09:10.240
Well, I tell you, there is, I mean, if I think if we don't take control of the Senate and the house
00:09:16.480
and, and, and the white house, uh, we're just going to be treading water at best. If they win
00:09:23.660
those, uh, we are, we're done. Uh, they have, they have put so many, uh, uh, deadly fruit trees in all
00:09:34.700
of our agencies and all of our government that I just don't see us being able to survive it. The
00:09:41.020
fundamental transformation will be finished in the next term. And you have introduced legislation
00:09:46.860
to dismantle all of the federal DEI programs from the federal government. Uh, thank you.
00:09:56.000
Yeah, we, we have, and to your point about the Senate, Glenn, this, you know, the Senate's in
00:09:59.820
the personnel business. We approve all of the political appointees. And if you want to root out
00:10:04.260
the deep state and the bureaucracy, you need political appointees who are aligned with the agenda.
00:10:08.920
And what this legislation does, and I'm not an idiot, Joe Biden, I can sign it. Uh, but Donald
00:10:14.240
Trump would, and what it would do is, is really destroy the diversity, equity and inclusion
00:10:22.000
bureaucracy that exists in our country. And people say, well, you know, who, who doesn't like
00:10:25.960
diversity, right? Doesn't diversity just mean, um, you know, you have a Mexican restaurant down
00:10:30.700
the street. No, no, no, no. The way that our federal government has interpreted this is to
00:10:35.700
explicitly allow racist decision-making, primarily targeting white and Asian Americans now in the
00:10:42.440
21st century, but explicitly racist decision-making and contracting and hiring in the provision of
00:10:48.980
grants. Uh, some of these programs, by the way, have been held flatly illegal by the federal courts.
00:10:53.680
For example, uh, there was a farm program that explicitly excluded white Americans from the
00:10:59.660
provision of farm assistance for our farmers. And that's ridiculous. You can't discriminate whether
00:11:04.780
black or white against people on the basis of skin color. This would proactively root this stuff
00:11:09.600
out of our government. And it's a very important first step to getting basic merit back in our
00:11:14.700
federal system, Glenn. Yeah. And I, you know, I don't think that even black farmers, uh, would,
00:11:20.200
would have wanted that. I mean, you know, maybe some would, but, you know, farmers rely on each other
00:11:26.360
and they need to help each other. Cause you know, if Bill's crop is down this year, it might be
00:11:31.980
my crop down next year. So we're all in this together. The last thing you want are now new
00:11:38.740
racial barriers between neighbors where he gets the help from the government and we don't,
00:11:45.540
it's not a good idea. It's not a good idea at all. And to your point about how black farmers feel
00:11:51.880
about this stuff, if you look at public polling on this, what you consistently find is that black
00:11:58.440
Americans and most white Americans don't like racial quotas. They don't like racial discrimination,
00:12:05.000
whether it benefits them, their, their group or harms their group. The one group of Americans
00:12:11.060
that seems to really like racial quotas are very high education, white Americans. That is the one
00:12:18.660
group. That is the one group that seems, by the way, they're not going to lose out, uh, when the quota
00:12:24.340
system comes because they pull all the strings, but they're not doing it for the good of the country.
00:12:30.540
I think they're fundamentally doing it because they look down on, um, they look down on, on white
00:12:37.380
Americans who don't have their same educational status. And a lot of, you know, one of my theories,
00:12:42.700
Glenn, is that a lot of what is broken about America is high education whites who really
00:12:48.960
hate lower education whites. And I think you, you see that as a main driver of a lot of very stupid
00:12:55.800
public policy and frankly, a lot of very evil public policy in this country. So we got to root
00:12:59.800
it out. We got to be proactive about it. That's what I'm trying to do. I mean, it's, it's really,
00:13:04.540
I mean, this, it wasn't like this before because our education system was, was much more local,
00:13:11.400
you know, um, and in, and not as, uh, you know, you, you didn't have all of the smart people going
00:13:19.640
to this one college. And so they were only surrounded by really, really smart people and
00:13:24.720
then get married to the same kind of thinking some, you know, you, you would have, um, a great
00:13:30.740
disparity in, in education and experience in families all the time. But now the elites, they wouldn't
00:13:40.280
marry into a farming family. They, they don't understand it. They don't like it. Generally
00:13:44.700
speaking. No, that, that, that's right. Uh, Glenn. So there is this, this real classism,
00:13:51.500
right? I think that's a much bigger problem than racism in modern America, but it's actually made
00:13:55.980
our education system much stupider because to your point, you know, you used to have, of course,
00:13:59.880
you'd have, you know, the smart kids would become doctors and lawyers and engineers and the kids who
00:14:05.140
didn't like school as much would do something else, but sort of everybody lived together and work
00:14:09.520
together. And it was, it was a good community kind of work together. When you silo people by
00:14:15.140
education, what we find is that we send people to colleges and they don't get good training and
00:14:21.040
useful skills. They increasingly get indoctrinated into how to be crazy people. So even the educational
00:14:27.360
institutions stop serving their function when you stratify this thing in such a ridiculous way.
00:14:33.280
And I think you're certainly seeing evidence of that in our country right now.
00:14:36.140
So what are the chances that this even passes this legislation? I know Biden won't sign it,
00:14:45.920
Um, I, I look, I don't think it's going to get out of the Senate. I think the house would support
00:14:49.140
this. Uh, but what we're trying to do is plant seeds, Glenn. One of the things that happened in
00:14:53.140
the, in the 2016, uh, campaign is Republicans really expected Trump to lose. And so when he actually
00:14:59.880
won, there wasn't the foundational work that had been done to make the, the, you know,
00:15:05.720
to just pass a bunch of really good legislation, we're trying to do that. We're trying to set up
00:15:10.260
the next administration for success. And at the very least have a debate about what kind of country
00:15:15.020
we want. Do we want a country that discriminates based on race? I think the answer is no. And I
00:15:19.500
think 90% of people agree with me. Do you believe that the, the next administration can, uh, fire
00:15:28.040
enough people to make a difference in the deep state? I do, Glenn, but it will be one of the most
00:15:34.320
important fights. I mean, I think the two things that hopefully president Trump does in his second
00:15:39.340
term, and I know he wants to do, but will cause massive backlash from the media is we need to deport
00:15:45.700
a large number of the illegal immigrants who have come here over the last few years. Uh, and we also
00:15:50.760
need to really root out the federal bureaucracy to make it more responsive, to make it more,
00:15:56.700
to make it smaller, uh, but to really make it democratically accountable to the people's elected
00:16:01.500
president, the media is how about the stuff. They'll call it fascism. They'll call it every name
00:16:06.360
in the book. It's the opposite. It's the opposite. Exactly. It's, it's accountability, right? That is
00:16:13.040
the opposite of fascism. And it, frankly, we have fascism at the bureaucratic level where people's
00:16:20.280
lives are controlled by people they never elected, right? That that's democracy. That's Republican
00:16:25.000
form of government. So look, this is the most important thing structurally that we have to fix
00:16:29.720
at the government. I think Trump is committed to it. And I think the question is, do you have enough
00:16:34.420
Republicans in there who have the willpower and the courage to fight alongside of them? And I think
00:16:40.580
that's the big question. Yeah. Well, we've, we've got a lot of people like you where, when we did the
00:16:46.100
tea party thing years ago, we didn't, we didn't have, we just didn't have the people in there who
00:16:51.680
really, truly had the foundation that they'd been thinking about for a long time. Um, and I think we
00:16:57.520
do now, we have a lot of really good people. We need more, but this is the best chance, uh, of success
00:17:04.100
that I've seen in, in a very long time. Um, the tea party turned out to be, you know, we were really
00:17:11.580
fighting the, the deep state in the Republican party. And I think that one is on its last legs.
00:17:20.840
Look, we, we, we need to win that. We need to win the fight one. And if we don't, I really do think
00:17:25.220
we could lose our country. Yes, I agree. Uh, JD, thank you very much. I appreciate it. Senator JD Vance,
00:17:31.180
uh, from Ohio. Uh, this is a, um, a good seed planting because DEI does need to go from all
00:17:39.880
of our federal agencies and federal programs. Thank you so much, JD. Appreciate it.
00:17:46.640
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.
00:17:53.580
Well, I am, uh, I'm so excited and, and just, we're about to geek out, um, uh, with Charles,
00:18:00.040
uh, Charles Bueller. He is, uh, the founder of Exodus Propulsion Technologies, uh, NASA X, uh,
00:18:08.920
electrostatics and surface physics laboratory as well. He's an engineer. He believes he's found a
00:18:15.200
way to overcome earth's gravity. This is crazy. Welcome. Welcome, sir. Hey, thank you. Thank you
00:18:23.640
for having me. So can you explain this as much as you can in layman's terms, uh, on what you,
00:18:30.840
what you've discovered? Uh, sure. I do have to caveat first that this is, uh, not sanctioned
00:18:39.140
by NASA. This is work that we've done outside of NASA as a team. Oh, they were made up of a lot
00:18:45.200
of scientists and engineers throughout the aerospace industry, but, uh, this is not NASA work and
00:18:50.640
there's several reasons for that. Okay, good. I'm actually, I'm actually happier about that. I like
00:18:56.060
private industry coming up with things. Okay. So Charles, tell me what you've done.
00:19:02.380
Well, we've been, uh, exploring, um, propellantless propulsion for several members of our team for
00:19:08.480
several years. Gosh, I've been doing it for 25 years. My colleagues been doing it for about 15 years
00:19:14.080
or so. But when we joined forces in 2016, we were able to see some magic happen. And then we didn't
00:19:21.940
really understand it until about 2018. Um, and that's when we kind of hit the ground running once
00:19:28.180
we understood it. And then, uh, we didn't come public with it until earlier, earlier this year.
00:19:33.820
So when you say you really didn't understand it, the articles that I've read say you still
00:19:40.060
don't fully understand what's going on because it seems to break the laws of, of physics and gravity.
00:19:47.840
That's correct. So when I say, we understand it from a classical point of view, but we know that
00:19:53.260
can't be the full picture. There's got to be some kind of mechanics involved, but we at least know
00:19:58.840
enough to do some engineering around it based on the conservation of energy laws. And we've tested
00:20:05.660
that. And we've made about 1500 test articles in the last eight years. So we're learning. We learn
00:20:14.380
every, you know, we learn every day because we tested about every day. So what this would allow
00:20:19.960
at scale, um, and if you could do it, not in a vacuum, but space is a vacuum. So we could,
00:20:29.500
Well, that's this, you know, we need that theory verification, you know, to prove that it is
00:20:35.900
actually a separate course that we have not yet seen in nature. So to do that, no one will believe
00:20:42.260
you until you actually do it in space and see it move.
00:20:44.460
Sure. So, so you, but you have found a way, I mean, when we think of sending things into space,
00:20:51.440
we think rockets and that is probably one of the more, more dangerous moments, uh, when you're going
00:20:58.000
into space is all of that thrust behind you coming from, uh, propellants. Um, and, uh, and you found a
00:21:08.140
way now to possibly put rockets into space without it really being a rocket. What, what is it that
00:21:19.240
Well, that's the nice thing about it. It doesn't, uh, use propellant and, you know, propellant with
00:21:27.380
propulsion. So you can imagine the skin of your aircraft being the thruster, if you will. It's a
00:21:33.680
paradigm shift in the way we think about transportation. It does seem to violate a lot of old classical laws
00:21:39.400
like the rocket equation and other classical mechanics. So those equations are, gosh, almost 400
00:21:44.600
years old. We have a lot of new physics since then. And I think this is taking advantage of
00:21:49.420
some of the, not the 20th century quantum mechanics as much, but more of the 19th century
00:21:53.780
E and M physics, electricity and magnetism. So you're right. It will replace rockets because
00:21:59.420
about 90% of the rockets by mass and volume is just fuel. Right.
00:22:04.200
If you get rid of all that, if you get rid of all that, then you could theoretically start
00:22:08.900
from Earth and go straight into space and then back and forth all over.
00:22:13.500
That is crazy. That will change everything. So, so when you say the skin of the plane or
00:22:22.180
the rocket or whatever you're talking about, is it kind of like static electricity? Is that
00:22:27.720
what you're, I mean, I just don't even understand at all.
00:22:33.180
Well, well, it turned out initially we thought, I thought for 20 years that it had to do with
00:22:40.660
electromagnetism. So that's electricity and magnetism together. But we found out in 2018,
00:22:46.260
it was really just a static electricity effect, which meant no current and the charges are static.
00:22:52.040
That's a big distinction. It just happened to be the area of expertise that I am at NASA
00:22:56.220
is being electrostatic expert for the agency. So once I knew that that's what it was,
00:23:00.880
it was able to hit the ground running and to get thrusters that in theory should be able
00:23:05.920
to lift under their own weight on Earth, provided they didn't have to carry anything yet.
00:23:11.440
We're still working on getting it stronger, but that's essentially the gist of it.
00:23:15.760
Static electricity itself has energy because there's energy between charged particles.
00:23:21.380
We're all familiar with the Coulomb energy, you know, like particles, like positive particles
00:23:26.160
repel, you know, negative particles repel, but plus and minus attract.
00:23:30.880
We're all familiar with that aspect of static electricity. What this has shown is that there
00:23:37.700
is what we call electrostatic pressure in the presence of the field. It's basically
00:23:42.260
the pressure itself, which is not something I invented that's been around for 100 years or so,
00:23:49.400
but the pressure itself can act in such a way that if it's unbalanced, it can give you a net momentum
00:23:56.640
transfer to your system. That's what's new. And how exactly this does this, I don't know.
00:24:03.460
I'm not sure if I'll ever know, but it seems to work. So this is easy to manufacture. It's easy to test.
00:24:10.380
Now, we've done all the tests we've done in vacuum or the lab. Now it's time to take the next step,
00:24:16.020
you know, put it lower a little bit and see what it does.
00:24:18.920
Dr. Buehler, can I ask, I'm looking at a chart of your success and it looks like in 2021,
00:24:25.680
you just had phenomenal success. It just skyrockets up to just over a G of thrust.
00:24:32.720
What happened at that time where you just exponentially started getting, having more and more success?
00:24:38.960
Well, we know that static electricity, this force, is based on asymmetrical capacitance.
00:24:49.000
Now, asymmetrical capacitors have been around for 100 years. People have seen thrust in them,
00:24:53.980
but they've been kind of ignored from the scientific community because of an ion wind effect.
00:24:58.240
You do it in air. But if you ignore that and if you actually test it in vacuum and test it correctly,
00:25:04.080
you'll see that you'll get the thrust actually in the opposite direction of the ion wind.
00:25:07.980
But that's a geometry effect. So, you know, parallel plate capacitors are parallel. If you
00:25:14.840
change the dimension of one of them, you'll get a thrust. So that's a geometry effect. But there
00:25:20.980
are many ways to make an asymmetrical capacitor other than geometry. So that's what we've explored
00:25:26.900
and that's what we've uncovered. And that helps. It makes things smaller, miniature,
00:25:31.580
makes things two-dimensional, if you will, and lighter. So that's the big advancement that
00:25:37.800
we've made. Are there any videos that you guys have made showing this at all yet?
00:25:46.540
We have a couple on our website. We're going to put a few more on in the next couple of weeks.
00:25:51.600
But yes, so what we're doing now is we're trying to make videos to show people how to build these.
00:25:57.720
That's really the only way to get it out there, to kind of show people how this is done.
00:26:01.160
So we have a couple of videos that we made, I don't know, five years ago, six years ago,
00:26:05.080
that show the thrusters moving in air. So we have to encapsulate them in styrofoam. So it doesn't
00:26:12.300
look very pretty, but styrofoam is a great diagnostic. It's light. You know, it stops corona, what we call
00:26:18.960
corona from happening, which is a gas breakdown. We don't want any sparks or discharges or current.
00:26:23.460
So we encapsulate everything. Styrofoam is light. It's a good source for that. So those videos are
00:26:29.960
online. You can take a look at those. Okay, so that's at exoduspropulsion.space. Easy for me to say.
00:26:39.160
Easier for you to type. Yeah. So tell me the ramifications. If this is found to be
00:26:49.600
what you think it might be, tell me how our life and the things that it could do and would change.
00:27:02.400
Well, clearly, it would revolutionize transportation as we know it. All forms of
00:27:08.480
transportation. Cars, boats, trains, planes, everything would change. You wouldn't need an
00:27:14.660
engine. You wouldn't need a combustion engine or to burn fossil fuels. You wouldn't need
00:27:21.480
propellers or wheels or tires. It would just revolutionize everything.
00:27:27.680
Yes, it would revolutionize everything if we can get this above, much above unity. Right now,
00:27:32.220
we're sort of hovering around unity, but you need a little bit more to carry something.
00:27:38.680
Unity. Well, we define unity as the thrust needed to lift up the weight of the thruster.
00:27:46.340
Okay. So you need to add more so you can put a body or stuff or whatever in that thruster. Okay.
00:27:57.420
Okay. Okay. So that's what we need. So we need at least a double or triple the factor just so we can
00:28:03.700
lift up the power supplies for and carry load, payload, whatever that is. So that's what we're
00:28:10.520
working toward. But right now- I have to tell you, go ahead.
00:28:15.320
Well, I'm just saying right now, we are above lunar unity. So for the moon, and NASA is very
00:28:20.740
interesting to go back to the moon as others are, we actually have way over lunar unity. So in theory,
00:28:27.040
we can send objects to the moon using conventional rockets today and actually make spacecraft also be
00:28:34.260
the hovercraft for the lunar surface. Never actually have to touch the surface unless they
00:28:39.680
want to. That's very exciting. You don't want to touch the dust. You don't have to. You can just
00:28:45.500
hover above it and you can travel with the sun. There's a lot of cool things you could do with
00:28:50.640
this technology, but a great demonstration of it would be on the moon.
00:28:53.400
So this would help, like, because as I understand it, one of the reasons we want to go to the moon
00:29:01.040
again is we need a staging station if we wanted to go to any of the outer planets. This could make
00:29:10.040
that- we wouldn't have to have that step if you didn't need the propulsion, if you didn't need,
00:29:18.700
you know, some propellant that you would have to get off the moon. Correct?
00:29:23.380
No, you're absolutely right. Right now, NASA's aim is to go to the South Pole to extract water.
00:29:30.080
Part of that water could be used for propulsion. It could split up the hydrogen and oxygen. But you
00:29:35.980
wouldn't need to do that with this technology. You would just go to the moon, and then when you get
00:29:39.880
tired of going to the moon, you can go to Mars. Right now, we can go to the moon, theoretically,
00:29:43.520
in about two and a half hours. It's a very slow acceleration. Wait, wait, wait. Wait, wait,
00:29:49.500
wait. What did you say? Well, since it's a constant thrust, theoretically, we should be able to put our
00:29:58.760
thrusters in space and get to the moon in under three hours with the accelerations that we have.
00:30:03.840
That's huge. We can get to Mars in about five to six days. That's very rare. Oh, my gosh.
00:30:16.520
You're streaming the best of the Glenn Beck podcast. To hear more of this interview,
00:30:22.000
find the full episode wherever you get podcasts. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Hello, America.
00:30:28.200
It's Friday. Good thing the G7 summit, where all of the big leaders get together and, you know,
00:30:37.640
have a powwow and talk about what we're going to do to cause some more war and higher inflation.
00:30:43.900
They got together and they were watching just a fantastic skydiving event that was done for them.
00:30:52.800
Now, remember, just remember, these are the ones that are always saying global warming, global warming.
00:31:01.320
So not only did they fly over in their own planes to get together, but then they sent an airplane up
00:31:10.060
with people in it to jump out for their entertainment. So I'm taking them seriously. But they're all standing
00:31:17.420
there in an open field watching these guys come down except for except for Joe Biden. He watches for a
00:31:25.180
while and then he decides squirrel and he starts to meander and walk away from and it's it's incredible
00:31:36.500
footage to watch because you can see none of the prime ministers or presidents know what to do as he
00:31:45.260
just wanders off. He's facing the wrong direction. And you see Prime Minister Maloney from Italy.
00:31:55.180
She's the only one that gracefully knows how to get him out. She kind of backs up and then grabs him
00:32:01.820
and like over here, Mr. Brown, we got cookies. Who wants a cookie? Look at cookies. Say cookie.
00:32:06.980
It is. It is. It is horrifying how bad he is. And then he puts his glasses on at twice the speed
00:32:16.900
that it takes to for him to sit down at ceremonies. I don't know if you remember that footage from
00:32:24.560
earlier this week, last weekend, where he was trying to sit down and look like he crapped his pants.
00:32:29.280
He didn't crap his pants. He was just deciding, should I sit down or not? Maybe I should stand.
00:32:55.920
OK, that's that's what was going through his head. He didn't know whether he was starting to sit down
00:33:03.040
and then he's like, oh, nobody else's. You just stand up, man. You just stand right back up. It's
00:33:07.680
no big deal. We've all done it. Whoops. But he just froze like I'm thinking when he's putting his
00:33:13.880
sunglasses on. He's like, I've got to lift my arm. The pressure on my sunglasses enough to keep him
00:33:21.660
held up so I can put him now on my face over my ears. Done.
00:33:33.180
What do they honestly, what do they jack him up with? Because they've got to jack him up with
00:33:39.420
something. Because there's no way that's not the guy who speaks to us in like major interviews or,
00:33:45.660
you know, when he comes in to address Congress for the State of the Union, he's like, hey, man,
00:33:51.420
I got to tell you, everything's going great. I mean, the state of our economy is great.
00:33:55.260
I don't know what they're putting him on, but that ain't Joe Biden.
00:34:01.140
What we're seeing now. Yeah, shocking. Shocking. I mean, you look at, I mean, in the interviews,
00:34:06.860
he's with it. But when he gets on a stage, maybe it's maybe he's just allergic to stages.
00:34:11.300
I don't really know what it is. But he'll just have that reboot. Or in this case, it was a field.
00:34:15.220
In this case, it was a field. But yeah, it's like, it's that, remember that when he was just,
00:34:20.260
when he got stuck in that one facial expression, when he was at that, what was that event at the
00:34:25.060
White House or whatever for, was it Juneteenth? He just, it was stuck. It was like everything just
00:34:30.200
stopped. And can you, can you play that? Do we have that video from earlier this week? I'm not sure
00:34:34.940
we still have it. But that video of him and the Juneteenth celebration, that happened actually last
00:34:39.860
weekend. The weekend before was, I'm going to sit. So it's once a week, we're getting these major
00:34:52.560
things. And he was standing at Juneteenth, and everybody was moving with the music and everything
00:34:57.100
else. He had that Joker smile on him. Go ahead and roll that, will you? He had this Joker smile on
00:35:04.480
his face. No, that's not it. But that's another great one too. He has this Joker smile on him
00:35:12.880
that doesn't move. He's like, I'm happy, I'm happy to be here and everybody's happy. Jill told me to
00:35:19.840
keep smiling. So I'm smiling, smiling. That's all I'm doing now is smile, smile, smile. She didn't tell
00:35:25.140
me to move and smile. I'm just smiling and not moving. That's just creepy. It is creepy.
00:35:34.740
He is, you know who looks more lifelike? The audio animatronic Joe Biden. It'll be the only one in
00:35:43.460
Disney that's like, man, they nailed him. They didn't get better. He just always looks like he's
00:35:49.540
auto animatronic. I'm a robot. I don't want to like presume. I don't want to try to guess on what
00:35:57.240
might be wrong with him, but my father had lupus and he would have like little like micro strokes
00:36:02.800
and he would just, it was just all of a sudden he would just like check out. He would just kind of
00:36:06.540
stop and like kind of gaze. And what he was doing, he was having like little micro strokes. And that is
00:36:11.580
eerily similar to what I saw from him. Well, this is, I mean, um, one of my daughters,
00:36:19.500
you know, Mary, she has significant strokes and are significant seizures. Um, and this,
00:36:27.140
this really cutting edge, um, procedure that I wouldn't have done. She chose, she chose to do it
00:36:35.920
because I would have been too afraid because they said to her, you may, may wake up and you may not
00:36:40.560
recognize anybody. You may not be able to speak or know people's names. I mean, we don't know what
00:36:47.260
we're doing here and, but we think we know what we're doing, but we don't. And brave girl, she was
00:36:55.820
like, do it. I don't want to live like this anymore. Just do it. And so they did. And she was seizure
00:37:02.240
free for about two years. And, uh, and now they've, they've come back, um, pretty hard and hers are
00:37:09.180
really getting grand malish. Um, my other daughter has seizure where she is like Joe Biden, but just
00:37:17.960
very short period of time where she just like, and you're like, hello, hello, what? And we didn't,
00:37:27.940
for a long time, didn't know there were seizures kind of probably like your dad. We didn't know,
00:37:31.740
just thought he just kind of drifted, you know, for a minute and yeah, but that's not, I think he's
00:37:37.380
just gone. I think he's just gone. Uh, here's Biden yesterday, promising Ukraine a lot more money.
00:37:46.360
By the way, the idea that we had to wait till we pass the legislation overall, even held up by a
00:37:52.800
small majority of our Republican colleagues was just terrible. And, uh, there's a lot more money
00:37:59.800
Can you stop? Can you stop? Can you, can you stop play that again? I want you to listen to what
00:38:04.420
the president of the United States just said. Listen again, by the way, the idea that we had
00:38:10.600
to wait till we pass the legislation overall, even held up by a small majority of our Republican
00:38:17.680
The idea that we had to wait for Congress to pass this before we could do it is just horrible.
00:38:30.260
That's the constitutional process, dude. He's complaining that you have to wait before you
00:38:39.260
spend money on something that's controversial. That, what is that? That's the cry of a dictator.
00:38:45.640
Now you can say, because of our system, we had to wait. And, you know, it's just the way,
00:38:53.440
you know, a Republican, a democracy, it's not pretty all the time, but it's, as Churchill said,
00:38:59.460
it's the worst until you compare it to everything else. And then you realize it's the best.
00:39:05.200
It's the best of the worst. You know, sorry, we had to delay on that, but we have certain things
00:39:10.080
we have to do, but the money's there now. No, he's saying the very idea that we had to wait.
00:39:19.240
Do you know that famous speech from FDR, you know, a date which will live in infamy.
00:39:23.640
Do you know what that speech was? That speech was for the president to make his case in front of
00:39:31.740
Congress to go to war. There was never a clearer, at least, you know, in the last hundred years,
00:39:40.080
there's no clearer declaration of war than bombing Pearl Harbor, right? Bombing all of our ships.
00:39:48.440
Today, we would have just launched. The president back then, this is how far we've drifted. The
00:39:55.280
president back then, even after Pearl Harbor, went the very next day to Congress and gave that speech.
00:40:02.460
And then they voted. The very idea that we have to vote on things in Congress. I've done everything
00:40:11.120
I can to make Congress and the Constitution just, you know, a rubber stamp, but I'm not there yet.
00:40:17.940
So let me promise you that there's a lot more money coming. Oh my gosh.
00:40:23.080
He does these, you know, that's an interesting point you made, Glenn, because I've caught him
00:40:26.620
doing that in the past. These very fundamental beliefs of our country, the United States,
00:40:31.120
they clearly just do not believe in. Like every time he threatens us with the F-15 remark that
00:40:36.900
he's said about 16,000 times, I never really got annoyed that it was a threat. I never really
00:40:41.960
took it that way. What really annoyed me was he is making fun of the fundamental, you know,
00:40:47.880
right of self-defense that we have in this country. The fundamental right that if there ever
00:40:52.260
becomes a tyrant, you have the tools to stand up and push back and say, no, you have that
00:40:57.080
right to put, you not only have the right as this, as it says in the Declaration of Independence,
00:41:02.980
you have the duty to overthrow the shackles of a tyrant. And you're right. But, you know,
00:41:12.680
Jason, as somebody who is in Afghanistan right after 9-11, I don't know. On those F-15s,
00:41:22.840
everything that we, you know, everything that we threw at them, they're still in charge of
00:41:27.540
Afghanistan, aren't they? Yeah, I don't think F-15s help them out too much. Neither did the
00:41:32.800
Northern Vietnamese. I mean, history is full of insurgencies that have been successful. You know,
00:41:38.580
on this Ukraine funding thing, we've done multiple different shows on some of this stuff. And what
00:41:45.440
will shock you, if you just kind of look and try to trace some of these funds, whether they're
00:41:50.440
coming from Congress or some other agency within this government, it is everywhere. Like, just look
00:41:56.500
at the news. You'll look, it's like, oh, Secretary Blinken was in Ukraine yesterday and he just promised
00:42:00.860
$200 million. Yeah, like, where'd that come from? I don't, Congress didn't approve that. And then
00:42:06.000
you'll hear at the exact same time the Pentagon did. That's the Chevron case. Yes. That's the
00:42:11.000
Chevron case. They can't do that. Only Congress has the purse strings. Only Congress can issue more
00:42:19.800
spending. It must start in Congress. We've completely disregarded the Constitution. It's not
00:42:27.600
only hanging from a thread. I think the thread is so frayed that it is broken and we're not even using
00:42:36.040
it at all. Or we are the closest that we've ever been to absolutely destroying everything that
00:42:43.300
everybody worked and died, died for. Anyway, so he's promising more money, but don't worry,
00:42:50.580
the experts get it. Here is Janet Yellen telling us that, you know, you just don't get it. You don't
00:42:58.380
understand. We're smarter than you. Cut nine. All Americans, both those who are well off and those
00:43:05.800
who are near near at the bottom of the income distribution are better off now. Their wages
00:43:11.500
