00:00:00.000
Let me tell you about Father's Day. It's coming up.
00:00:11.200
I'm not wearing this out without my wife going,
00:00:21.740
Founded on the idea of making an American difference.
00:00:35.180
Great kind of just golf clothing, you know, casual clothing.
00:01:14.940
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:27.960
According to Gallup, the poverty rate of $30,000 doesn't cut it anymore.
00:01:36.740
In fact, for a family of four, they're saying now that people need at least $85,000 just to get by.
00:02:10.260
First of all, we avoided that funding crunch, you know, that catastrophe that would not ever happen without the Secretary of Treasury and the President deciding not to pay our bills.
00:02:28.060
And the Republicans, they're saying there's just all kinds of wins there, you know, like many more omnibuses, CBO found it's going to it's going to affect food stamps.
00:02:45.880
In fact, it's going to it's it's going to expand food stamps.
00:02:50.520
So all the things that I gosh, I wish I hadn't been right on McCarthy, all the things I thought about McCarthy and then hoped, well, no, maybe he's different.
00:03:10.620
And there are people like Mike Lee and Ted Cruz and others who are standing up and saying, not on my watch.
00:03:23.440
I don't know about you, but I like comfortability.
00:03:29.040
You know, when I sleep, when I'm when I'm with a towel, you know, I have a towel.
00:03:50.420
A washcloth is more absorbent, but they're huge.
00:03:57.360
And you're like, OK, well, I need another towel.
00:04:00.020
If you would like really great towels for twenty five dollars.
00:04:03.480
My pillow dot com has a six towel set right now.
00:04:07.860
They're machine washable, durable, come in multiple sizes and styles.
00:04:16.900
Get the clearance price of twenty five dollars on this towel set.
00:04:27.180
Check out eight hundred nine six six thirty one seventeen.
00:04:36.720
But the strategy now is to make sure that the United States Senate is fully informed before
00:04:41.380
its members vote on this and to make sure that the United States Senate has the opportunity
00:04:45.300
to cast votes on a few amendments that identify some of the more egregious errors.
00:04:51.320
You could either call them drafting errors if you wanted to assume good faith on the part
00:04:55.640
of those who wrote them, or you could call them efforts to repair malicious damage inflicted
00:05:02.260
by whoever wrote this, trying to make virtually every cost savings measure in this bill
00:05:14.920
So my personal favorite in the sense of it really getting me worked up is this section
00:05:24.760
Section two sixty five nullifies completely the regulatory pay as you go measure or pay
00:05:32.740
The red pay go provision is section two sixty three.
00:05:35.020
Then a two sixty five, just after the provision that promised to bring about accountability for
00:05:40.600
government as it expands the regulatory footprint.
00:05:44.720
It says, oh, by the way, the director of President Biden's Office of Management and Budget, Shalonda
00:05:52.460
Young, may at her sole discretion decide not to follow these.
00:06:00.780
And, you know, Glenn, the funny thing is I discovered this about forty eight hours ago and
00:06:05.180
it was Tuesday morning when I was reading through that particular provision and discovered, oh,
00:06:11.460
And a lot of people aren't going to read this or understand what it means.
00:06:16.400
By the end of the day, Shalonda Young herself, OMB director at a White House briefing, came
00:06:21.340
out and said, yeah, of course I will use that provision and I will use that provision to defend
00:06:27.320
and prop up President Biden's regulatory agenda.
00:06:30.740
So they're not even being mysterious about this.
00:06:34.220
So this regulatory accountability, it was supposed to start with and end with the Reigns Act,
00:06:39.080
which would put Congress back in charge of making the law instead of allowing law to be
00:06:42.700
made by unelected, unaccountable, bureaucratic pinheads.
00:06:46.760
They stripped that out and they put this one in as a replacement with Kevin McCarthy, who
00:06:55.560
I've long really liked Kevin personally, but he came out and said, yeah, we didn't get
00:07:02.080
We didn't even get a short term Reigns, which is something they should have used as a fallback,
00:07:06.120
which I'd suggest, and at least reign for the duration of the Congress.
00:07:09.500
But we did get something almost as good as that, which is this regulatory PAYGO feature,
00:07:18.940
What is the regulatory PAYGO, the one you just talked about?
00:07:24.740
Okay, so it would require the administration, each time it issues a new regulation, to establish
00:07:30.480
what the cost of it would be and to ensure that they're not increasing the net cost of
00:07:37.580
See, this may seem odd to put in a debt ceiling deal, but it actually makes perfect sense
00:07:42.220
because we can't get out of our debt crisis solely by cutting.
00:07:49.040
Our debt is so huge that we need to grow at the same time we cut.
00:07:53.320
And so what we're left with is no real cuts, at least not very much, and I'll go over that
00:08:00.000
And the pro-growth stuff doesn't work either because it was built to fail.
00:08:05.260
I think he was deceived by someone giving him bad advice, but it is what it is, and I'm
00:08:10.080
pushing the amendment today to strike Section 265 to make this thing at least less bad.
00:08:16.900
Okay, so, Mike, you know, we've got Romney's coming out of our nose in Washington.
00:08:25.460
Are you going to be able to get enough Republicans to help?
00:08:31.340
Look, I'm whipping the vote among Senate Republicans.
00:08:36.440
I believe that we're going to have at least 20 no votes.
00:08:48.380
What would be an even better outcome, Glenn, is we get through some of this and we start
00:08:54.800
voting on some of these amendments to strike some of the more egregious provisions and also
00:09:00.300
at the same time highlight the bill's deficiencies.
00:09:03.540
And in the process, perhaps either repair it so that it actually does something good, or
00:09:09.000
alternatively, if it can't be repaired, defeat this thing so that we can go back to the drawing
00:09:16.020
There's no reason we have to be up against this false deadline established by Janet Yellen.
00:09:21.400
We're just days away from the moment when we're going to start receiving these quarterly
00:09:26.920
tax payments that once they're in, will take us into mid to late July before we have to
00:09:36.600
But there's no reason we have to act at this moment between now and Monday.
00:09:41.060
So, you know, you've got Mitch McConnell standing there saying we're going to pass it today.
00:09:53.080
And I respectfully, but very, very strongly disagree with him.
00:09:57.880
Look, we've got to make sure that the American people and those they elected to represent them
00:10:05.380
And I believe a lot of the people who voted for this last night, at least the Republicans,
00:10:13.520
They had been fed misinformation, perhaps in good faith.
00:10:16.920
I don't know, by Republican leadership over there.
00:10:20.420
But, you know, Glenn, something interesting happened.
00:10:26.980
71 House heroes who emerged, despite aggressive efforts by Republican leadership and the news
00:10:38.900
More Democrats voted for this bill in the House than Republicans.
00:10:44.540
I have heard, I don't know if this is true, but I have heard that there were earmarks given
00:10:59.980
But what I do know is more of them voted for it than did Republicans, and more Republicans
00:11:07.180
And yet this was an effort that was supposed to be some sort of win.
00:11:10.240
And within minutes after that vote was cast and the result was known, you had Democrats
00:11:16.420
in the House saying things like, OK, I guess we can gloat now.
00:11:19.700
We can finally gloat now that this has passed, that we totally played them.
00:11:29.200
Because I swear to you, we have the IQ among all Republican leadership, in my opinion.
00:11:36.580
We have the IQ of a dog and a dumb dog, possibly a dead dog at that.
00:11:42.800
Look, I won't speak to their IQ, and I don't know that that is the problem.
00:11:48.980
I think that the problem is they're too eager to hear what they want to hear, that something
00:11:53.320
can be done easily, that there can be a kumbaya moment that's not going to have problems with
00:11:58.700
And so sometimes they look the other way when it comes to the language.
00:12:03.920
I mean, I appreciate you're being much more Christlike than I am by, you know, you're not
00:12:10.480
But how dumb do you have to be to fall for the same trick every time since the day I was
00:12:17.740
Look, Glenn, you're not going to tell me Santa Claus isn't real again, are you?
00:12:21.080
Because that really upsets me when you go there.
00:12:24.360
Look, let's get back for a second to the spending issues.
00:12:28.160
Because this is another glaring omission, something that irritates me to no end what
00:12:33.620
They're claiming that this thing saves between, I don't know, $1.5 and $2 trillion.
00:12:42.920
Look, in year one, the Limit Save Grow Act, the one passed a few weeks ago by the House,
00:12:47.800
would have saved about a trillion dollars in the first year alone.
00:12:51.000
That's how you tell whether it's serious is what it does in the first year.
00:12:54.660
Because that's the one that's immediately under our control as we're doing this thing.
00:12:58.520
It's the same Congress acting in the same moment, in the same legislation.
00:13:02.160
This one, do you want to know how much it saves in year one?
00:13:08.180
$12 billion as compared to about $1.2 trillion.
00:13:14.960
And some would say even more because the expense, the cost of the Green New Deal tax credits
00:13:20.580
adopted by the Democrats, which they were clawing back, which they were going to halt,
00:13:25.640
are now understood as likely to be even more expensive than we expected.
00:13:30.140
But this one saves only about $12 billion, possibly as few as six.
00:13:37.280
You know, they claw back $28 billion of unspent COVID funds.
00:13:41.920
And then they immediately create a new slush fund in the Department of Commerce for $22 billion.
00:13:51.560
They're just moving it there so they can spend it somewhere else.
00:13:54.860
I mean, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:13:57.060
There shouldn't be any slush funds for any department.
00:14:03.660
What, Mike, what does the Commerce Department do?
00:14:09.540
And in this provision, I believe the language is something along the lines of establishing
00:14:15.220
business, necessary hot tech business infrastructure.
00:14:22.300
I think, honestly, it's there to serve as a slush fund to make sure that they have money
00:14:37.840
So, first of all, I hope and pray that senators will pay attention today, that they will continue
00:14:49.100
to read the bill, that they'll study the bill, that they will listen to arguments being made,
00:14:53.840
that when those of us who are proposing amendments and demanding that they be debated and voted
00:14:59.300
on, well, pay attention carefully to what's being said and ask the question, is this really
00:15:07.260
Not just what they deserve, but what they desperately need right now.
00:15:11.620
And secondly, anyone who has the ear of a United States senator, as most constituents do in one
00:15:23.340
way or another, reach out to them and ask how they're voting and express your views about how
00:15:30.300
If you feel, as I do, that this bill is a whole lot of smoke in mirrors and that it doesn't really
00:15:36.160
save anything and that it may end up costing more money, let them know.
00:15:40.700
Yet another point, they promised work requirements.
00:15:42.940
There were work requirements attached to Medicaid, attached to food stamps, and attached to another
00:15:47.820
federal welfare program called TANF in the original Limit Save Grow Plan.
00:15:54.200
Would have saved money and would have also helped people get out of poverty, making poverty temporary
00:15:59.360
rather than tolerable and sustainable long-term as poverty.
00:16:03.560
This is a pro-growth and pro-human thriving sort of measure.
00:16:09.760
They said, oh yeah, we've got work requirements until you read the fine print.
00:16:13.080
And you see that they stripped out all of the Medicaid work requirements.
00:16:17.040
The TANF requirements are essentially awash, essentially meaningless at best.
00:16:23.040
Then you've got the food stamp work requirements.
00:16:26.560
Those appeared at first blush to do something to save money.
00:16:31.020
And then we found out last night that according to the Congressional Budget Office, it actually
00:16:38.320
It's going to cost us a couple of billion dollars, not save us anything, but cost.
00:16:42.520
Yeah, but we're saving money with the IRS though, right?
00:16:49.600
Okay, so I think it's less than $2 billion out of $80 billion.
00:17:01.480
That is not just a drop in the bucket, that is a drop in the ocean as far as we're concerned.
00:17:06.300
It still puts us in a position where we've deployed this veritable army of people to harass
00:17:18.600
The last thing Thomas Massey was on yesterday said, this is going to avoid an omnibus bill.
00:17:25.240
And I've heard now that people are saying, no, this is going to cause another omnibus bill.
00:17:33.220
He's one of my favorite people in all of Congress.
00:17:46.480
Look, everyone makes mistakes from time to time.
00:17:52.480
This provision he's talking about that supposedly bring about an automatic 1% cut.
00:17:56.420
Now, it might have that effect if the 1% cut kicked in on October 1st, the day after Congress
00:18:03.020
failed to adopt a spending bill or a series of spending bills.
00:18:10.120
So that three-month interregnum between Congress's failure to pass something and the moment the
00:18:15.000
1% cut kicks in, during that period, there's going to be enormous groundswell pressure from
00:18:22.660
the Uniparty, from Washington Swamp, that will encourage Congress to pass a giant, bloated,
00:18:33.260
Or perhaps a large CR with some omnibus-like creatures dwelling within it.
00:18:41.160
Either way, we're going to spend more money, not less, as a result of this.
00:18:47.380
We will, hopefully, the phones will ring in the Senate today.
00:18:57.500
And thanks so much for keeping America informed.
00:19:06.540
Don't waste your dime on Mitt Romney's of the world.
00:19:18.100
If pain has gotten aggressive with you, you get up in the morning, it's kicking you around
00:19:31.500
Debilitating pain make you feel like doing nothing other than turning over in bed and going
00:19:45.040
So it was developed by doctors to not whack you out.
00:19:51.480
And hundreds of thousands of people have ordered Relief Factor.
00:20:09.680
You know, I think the only way this happens is if the phone lines are overwhelmed.
00:20:30.380
But if the phone lines are jammed, if people are calling the Capitol today to talk to their
00:20:36.500
congressmen, their senators now, but kick the butt of all those that didn't, or call and
00:20:43.260
thank the 70 that said, I'm not voting for this.
00:21:04.380
But, you know, at best case scenario, they're being duped.
00:21:19.880
I mean, the fact that they're, you know, you think, okay, we spent a bunch of money on
00:21:26.040
The fact that there's, you know, $28 billion left sitting around doing nothing, obviously
00:21:33.100
that should just go back to either pay them the money we borrowed back or as a tax rebate
00:21:38.960
Like, what do you mean going to a slush fund for another department that doesn't even know
00:21:45.260
I mean, the fact that that is in there, the fact that only $2 billion of $80 billion.
00:21:48.460
How much money is sloshing around in the administration where they're accomplishing anything they want
00:21:59.600
You've got to call your senator and say, no, no, don't vote yes on this.
00:22:08.280
I will remember when you come up for re-election.
00:22:21.260
The older you get, the more distance you put between who you are now and who you were then.
00:22:29.020
It's kind of a shame because I have favorite memories and I want to remember them.
00:22:34.260
Those memories that were caught on film or videotape, if you haven't looked at them,
00:22:39.320
especially if you're keeping them in the basement, the attic, or the garage,
00:22:51.220
And it makes a difference to future generations to know where they came from,
00:22:56.320
to know who these people were, to see how we lived.

00:23:27.560
All right, I think it's time to subscribe to Blaze TV.
00:24:03.200
You know, I was just doing that commercial for Legacy Box a minute ago.
00:24:07.500
And I can't tell you how important it is to save your history
00:24:18.340
We are entering a time, you know, I was talking to James Lindsay yesterday on the air,
00:24:24.600
and he was talking about how white extremists and, you know, white supremacists
00:24:33.940
are going to become synonymous with Christian nationalists.
00:24:39.440
Now, how do you decide what a Christian nationalist is?
00:24:45.260
Well, whoever is in charge gets to decide the meaning of those words.
00:24:48.940
And it is now trending towards anyone who believes in the superiority
00:24:55.800
or the divine appointing, if you will, of the United States of America,
00:25:03.720
that God was involved in writing our Constitution and Declaration of Independence.
00:25:14.180
Now, it doesn't give a special right to lord over everyone, which we are doing.
00:25:19.940
But I believe that we were saved by God several times.
00:25:25.960
This time, I think, you know, as we're praying, God's like,
00:25:34.640
I mean, I think he's going to, until we get it,
00:25:43.080
Anyway, what I just said to you will be deemed Christian nationalism.
00:25:55.760
and I believe in the influence of God on our founding and our country,
00:26:03.740
Not this arrogant, we'll tell everybody else how to live.
00:26:07.700
I don't have any intention of turning anyone into,
00:26:22.260
I will live my life in a way to be a good example.
00:26:26.040
And if you're interested on what makes me that way,
00:27:01.460
of things that will all be deemed Christian nationalist.
00:27:10.420
because they show the difference between good and evil.
00:27:17.060
They show when we are building our house on sand
00:27:46.120
All the tickets for the museum in Idaho sold out.
00:28:32.800
is not going to be lost in some boating accident.
00:28:37.440
It'd be horrible if I went out on a fishing boat
00:28:51.320
but they might all be lost in a boating accident
00:29:16.300
I don't advise you to bring your little kids to,
00:44:09.180
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:44:26.820
So why is everybody so hopped up on on war in Ukraine?
00:44:41.140
I have Chad Robichaux joining me here in just a second.
00:44:49.440
But I want to start with a couple of theories, a couple of facts that you don't know, probably.
00:44:59.300
Why are we so seemingly eager to go to war in 60 seconds?
00:45:10.220
It seems like it wasn't that long ago when the third rail for conversation in business was the same at the dinner table, religion and politics.
00:45:18.020
If you were smart in business, you left that stuff alone and focused on making your customer happy.
00:45:23.760
Do appeal to everyone because everybody needs a light bulb or everybody needs a cell phone.
00:45:33.880
But then the rise of wokeness murdered that notion in our society.
00:45:38.880
And just like in the 1930s, in other places, everything became political.
00:45:53.220
The only person that's going to fire me is you.
00:45:59.640
Well, with the cell phones, there is a group of people that were sick of every time they picked up their phone, if they were using Verizon, they were making a contribution to Planned Parenthood because that's who they were donating to.

I think one of the bravest and most honest speeches given by any president in the last 70 to 100 years came from Dwight Eisenhower.
00:47:06.880
Here's just a clip of what he said in his farewell address.
00:47:12.660
In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.
00:47:24.280
The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
00:47:31.840
We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.
00:47:40.880
This was used as, you're a conspiracy theorist if you believe in that.
00:47:46.900
And I always remember hearing the vast right-wing, the military-industrial complex.
00:48:11.220
It would be the way, usually when there is a collapse of trust, a trust implosion, I've talked about it for years,
00:48:18.900
trust implosion is usually the last sign before a country goes to war, and then it resets everything.
00:48:27.020
We just want to go to war to collapse the old system into a new system, and nobody will say anything because they just want the war to stop.
00:48:41.680
There's lots of money coming back into the United States.
00:48:45.440
Your tax dollars going to oligarchs and then coming back here.
00:48:59.120
I will tell you that the military-industrial complex, the educational-industrial complex, which he also warned about,
00:49:08.860
and the scientific-industrial complex, which he also warned about,
00:49:14.440
those three things and what he warned is happening.
00:49:19.620
Back in March, the Pentagon announced a budget for a whopping $842 billion.
00:49:28.140
It expanded authority for multi-year contracts for the supply of aircraft, ships, and ammunition.
00:49:35.460
Guess where the majority of that money is going to go to?
00:49:40.760
Defense contractors, otherwise known as the military-industrial complex.
00:49:46.280
CBS just did a story that said half of the Pentagon's budget, half, will go to defense contractors.
00:49:55.540
Meanwhile, some of our soldiers have to have food stamps.
00:50:01.040
Surprise, surprise, CBS found that these defense contractors are gouging the government with insanely inflated prices.
00:50:09.180
Do you want to know why Ukraine is so important?
00:50:15.760
The Pentagon granted companies unprecedented leeway to monitor themselves.
00:50:21.540
Instead of saving money, Assad told us the price of almost everything began to rise.
00:50:27.200
In the competitive environment before the companies consolidated,
00:50:31.860
a shoulder-fired Stinger missile cost $25,000 in 1991.
00:50:37.600
With Raytheon now the sole supplier, it cost more than $400,000 to replace each missile sent to Ukraine.
00:50:46.600
Even accounting for inflation and some improvements, that's a seven-fold increase.
00:50:55.760
Now, since when has technology made things more expensive?
00:51:14.960
CNN reported that Ukraine has asked for 500 Stinger missiles.
00:51:30.220
That's $20 million every day we're giving to Ukraine just in Stinger missiles.
00:51:38.840
Last year, the Pentagon had allocated nearly $1.5 billion just to restock our own troops with that weapon.
00:51:53.240
The United States is giving these defense contractors all of this money.
00:51:59.940
Do you know some of the stuff from Ukraine was just found on our border?
00:52:08.320
Defense contractors are making record-shattering profits.
00:52:14.440
Now, we looked at the list of the top 10 contractors in the country.
00:52:19.780
Stu, when I say the military-industrial complex, who do you think?
00:52:35.100
Do you know four of the top 10 are pharmaceutical companies?
00:52:44.360
Two of the four were the largest vaccine providers.
00:52:48.600
Moderna, which partnered with the government, creating the mRNA COVID vaccine.
00:52:53.780
Two of the four were the COVID vaccine providers, and four of them are pharmaceutical companies.
00:53:06.000
Is that just a one-off because of COVID, or what's the reasoning for that?
00:53:10.020
I mean, well, they have to make sure everybody's inoculated.
00:53:15.940
Now, they do have a bunch of other vaccines that the military members receive, right?
00:53:24.760
Pharmaceutical companies and the guys making the Stinger missiles.
00:53:29.540
Again, when one missile costs $400,000, how could these programs possibly be costing this?
00:53:36.200
Remember, who was the harshest on getting the vaccines?
00:53:49.880
I don't know what it is, but the government has partnered with all of these people, and they are bilking you.
00:53:58.180
They are taking your money and transferring that wealth, not to the poor, but to the uber-rich.
00:54:10.500
The military-industrial complex, the scientific-industrial complex, and the educational-industrial complex.
00:54:21.980
They, I mean, think of this, everything, just the military-industrial complex, pandemic response, vaccines, forever wars.
00:54:36.700
When Biden announced his presidential transition team, it was discovered that one-third of his Pentagon team came from organizations financed by defense contractors.
00:54:47.080
Once he became president, he began filling top Pentagon positions with weapons suppliers.
00:54:53.260
Last year, Biden traveled to Lockheed Martin, the largest defense contractor in the country, to cheer him on as they made the Javelin missiles to be sent to Ukraine.
00:55:06.840
The figurehead-in-chief or the owner of the companies that are now making billions off of this war?
00:55:12.380
Twenty-five members of Congress sat on the National Security Committee.
00:55:18.680
At the same time, those 25 members traded financial assets with the defense industry.
00:55:26.140
You imagine how rich you can be if you know a giant contract you've just been a part of approving is going and nobody else knows it,
00:55:34.240
and it's not illegal for you to use that insider information?
00:55:38.500
This is how these people go to Washington and become rich.
00:55:45.800
They're trading on insider information, and they're being led by the nose.
00:56:04.920
And the only way to stop it is to give the purse strings back to Congress as dictated in the Declaration or in the Constitution of the United States.
00:56:24.360
The purse strings go to the branch that is the closest to the people, the House.
00:56:37.120
I feel like we do actually have some good Republicans in there.
00:56:47.060
Those are people that stood up and said, nope, we're not passing it because this is a game.
00:56:53.640
Those 70 members, and I think there were 43 Democrats.
00:56:58.780
We'll have to look at why they said they weren't going to, because some of them were like, you know, it's not enough communism.
00:57:06.800
However, I think we have people fighting for us.
00:57:12.360
Everything you're hearing about this bill is garbage.
00:57:17.700
You know, if I'm going to understand a bill, I'm going to go to Mike Lee.
00:57:22.360
Mike Lee is, I mean, Mike Lee is the guy in the Senate everybody goes to.
00:57:43.980
All of the little things, you know, we had Thomas Massey on and bless his heart.
00:57:59.340
We are, if you don't act today, you may lose your country tomorrow.
00:58:08.780
And I think there are far too few people in America that believe that could be true.
00:58:13.660
But I, as sure as I, I, I said in 1999, within 10 years, there'll be blood bodies and buildings in the streets of this city, New York City.
00:58:27.000
And it will have the signature of Osama bin Laden on it.
00:58:36.760
I'm telling you, one day you're going to wake up and you're going to realize it's gone.
00:58:46.360
Stand up today and call your senator and tell your senators, call all of the Republicans.
00:58:57.980
I will remember how you voted and all of my friends.
00:59:03.600
And I will, I will make sure we remind everybody.
00:59:18.880
No, no more out of control spending because I can, I would bet you, I can't guarantee.
00:59:27.380
I would bet you, I'd bet you my house that all this money sloshing around, going over to Ukraine, a lot of it is being used to literally dismantle our country from our enemies.
00:59:45.480
And there's too many slush funds, and all of those dollars have your name on it.
01:00:02.120
Our sponsor this half hour is American Financing.
01:00:04.500
The Federal Reserve has continued to raise interest rates.
01:00:07.560
It looks like they're going to do it again this month, which means that money's going to get harder and tougher for you.
01:00:16.580
If you were a business, with the amount of money that the United States has to finance for the slush funds, you think you're going to get any of that money from a bank?
01:00:27.840
No, they're going to make it really hard for you, and your credit card bills are going to go up to the moon, Alice.
01:00:34.320
You don't need to be tacking additional years into paying those things off, especially when you don't know how bad things are going to get economically over the next few years.
01:00:45.140
Now, this may not be right for everybody, but I certainly would consider it.
01:00:48.980
If you have high-interest credit cards that you're just paying the minimum payment on, you are going to really, really struggle as this interest rate continues to go up.
01:01:00.660
And right now, American Financing is saving people between an average of $700 to $1,000 a month.
01:01:07.740
Plus, you could be able to delay up to two mortgage payments, close in as little as 10 days, and get that credit card off your plate.

01:01:45.900
Stu, you said something to me in my ear as we were going, and I cannot remember what.
01:01:52.960
Yeah, you nodded and you said yes, and then, of course, obviously you weren't listening to me at all.
01:01:57.660
I just wanted to point people to all this information that you did.
01:02:01.640
You did, and this is available on the full show that you did this week, YouTube channel, Blaze TV.
01:02:10.760
Yeah, this was the military-industrial complex.
01:02:14.280
I don't remember what we even called it, but it was like, you know, who's really running the country?
01:02:23.980
Lindsey Graham, do you know, found an incredible quote from Lindsey Graham.
01:02:30.700
He said, if the best friend of a defense contractor could be a senator, his name would be Lindsey Graham.
01:02:49.180
Like, if there was a contractor voting for this stuff in the Senate, his name would be Lindsey Graham.
01:02:58.320
It is a weird brag, but he loves it, and it's another money-laundering system.
01:03:14.680
A money-laundering system that risks World War III?
01:03:30.600
They've killed hundreds of thousands of people.
01:03:37.600
Russia came to us, and I'll show you last night.
01:03:41.400
They came, and they wanted a deal with the United States, and all they wanted was, you're not going to make them a NATO country.
01:03:53.120
Instead, Biden, when they came and made a deal, Ukraine and the Russians had a deal, and we said no.
01:04:02.000
Boris Johnson comes back in and says, absolutely not.
01:04:13.320
Now, I want you to think of it from Russia's point of view.
01:04:16.560
What they're saying is, you cannot put those missiles, and you cannot have a NATO country in right on our border.
01:04:24.780
Now, let's just say roles are reversed, and we're not talking even missiles, which I think are worse.
01:04:30.380
We're saying, you know, the borders are out of control.
01:04:34.720
We need to take a 100-mile or 50-mile swath of certain parts of Mexico.
01:04:43.460
And then Mexico is like, we've got to fight back, but we can't fight America.
01:04:47.720
And Russia starts to arm them with the latest, greatest technology.
01:04:53.140
And then they start using that technology in our cities.
01:04:58.120
And then they say, we're not just going to stop there.
01:05:04.740
And Russia was saying, oh, and the toppling of the American government is what we want.
01:05:10.440
Do you think we would sit around and not use everything?
01:05:23.140
Let me tell you about realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:05:32.380
If you're looking for somebody, this doesn't cost you.
01:05:35.380
These agents have been fully vetted by my crew.
01:05:42.500
I'm paying for this stupid ad, so I can do whatever I want.
01:06:06.540
And you still have 30 seconds to talk about the collapse of all society.
01:06:18.180
And then we talk over it, and you don't ever hear it.
01:06:25.520
Or you can see the whole show on Blaze TV and also Glenn's YouTube channel.
01:07:03.700
I was talking to somebody yesterday from Sweden.
01:07:08.580
And she was in the office, and I said, how are things going with ESG?
01:07:14.420
And she said, nobody in Europe really even understands it.
01:07:18.600
And I said to her, who do you know that is speaking out?
01:07:33.700
And if it wasn't for Russell Brand, and quite honestly, you, this audience, I don't think
01:07:47.300
But, you know, all of this stuff, what you're being told is not true.
01:07:55.040
And the military-industrial complex, the scientific-industrial complex, and the educational-industrial complex, all making money from the government.
01:08:04.400
And with this new budget deal, we'll make even more money and grow even bigger.
01:08:22.540
And I just, I don't know how, when you are against war.
01:08:27.180
First of all, I don't know what happened to all the anti-war people.
01:08:36.240
When we righteously wanted to strike back after 9-11, all these, not in my name.
01:08:46.260
Okay, now I can understand maybe Iraq, but Afghanistan?
01:08:50.460
And that's not, you know, saying for the strategy was pretty poor.
01:08:59.340
Because you don't believe a damn word you're saying.
01:09:06.480
And they're not coming, and they're like, I'm all of a sudden a conservative.
01:09:15.040
And they're like, I can't be what they say is a liberal.
01:09:20.600
I can't be a Democrat because that goes against everything I've always believed.
01:09:28.560
Where are the people that understand, as I explained, Ukraine with our own border?
01:09:37.320
If we, just to protect ourself, we said we're going to take, I don't know, 20 miles past
01:09:44.180
our border, and we're just going to annex it because it's chaos, and we need to be on
01:09:51.120
You know this is never going to happen, but let's say we did that.
01:09:56.880
Yes, so let's just say we did that, okay, for our own security as a nation, because
01:10:15.080
And Mexico couldn't defend themselves against us.
01:10:18.220
And so Russia stepped in and said, this is an abomination.
01:10:22.740
Even if we all knew, yeah, it really was wrong of us to do that, but we did it for the right
01:10:33.800
Russia starts arming the Mexicans and training the Mexicans.
01:10:39.200
And we should point out, too, an important part of this, publicly.
01:10:42.760
Not like leaking in arms in some proxy situation that we're like, we don't know what you're
01:10:50.220
Openly doing press conferences and bragging about it.
01:11:09.640
So then let's say Mexico, with the help of Russia, comes, takes back some of that territory,
01:11:24.780
And it was all being financed and run by the Russians who were openly saying,
01:11:35.560
Do you think we wouldn't use nukes if we had to?
01:11:41.820
We would declare war on the Russians in a heartbeat if that was the situation.
01:11:48.400
Why is it so unreasonable to think that with all that we are doing, that they're not,
01:11:58.160
Because I don't think we'd have that restraint.
01:12:01.280
And if they're bad, I don't, I'm not sticking up for Putin or the Russians.
01:12:07.980
But I mean, like, if you look at, if you kind of look at this as pretty obviously would
01:12:12.160
turn into World War III if we actually got into a war with Russia.
01:12:17.100
And the end of the dollar and everything else, because the dollar collapses.
01:12:22.060
We have no armaments because what have we been doing?
01:12:26.820
And what is stopping this, the only thing stopping it right now solely is the restraint
01:12:32.640
of Vladimir Putin, which, by the way, is not something I can depend on.
01:12:42.040
He just went in and invaded a country completely, in a completely ridiculous fashion and an illegal
01:12:49.820
I mean, this invasion, I can't say enough how much I hate it.
01:12:54.100
That being said, if this same scenario played out the other way, we would 100% be at war
01:13:01.200
with the, we would be outwardly saying we were at war with Russia.
01:13:06.940
Now, they haven't acted that way yet, thankfully.
01:13:10.680
They have said, they've had officials come out and say, we are at war with the West.
01:13:14.140
We are at war with these, with the United States.
01:13:23.780
We forced other countries to isolate them and cut off their oil.
01:13:42.800
And, and I don't know, let's, let's, let's think about it in another way.
01:13:47.920
Ronald Reagan, in his prime, one of the best, certainly the guy who you maybe most credit
01:13:57.400
A guy who really knew this issue, was really strong on it.
01:14:01.780
And I have as much faith in a president to, to execute something like this as I could possibly
01:14:09.160
If he were there, maybe you could make the argument, well, this is, this is a very slippery
01:14:18.720
But, you know, if anybody could do it, it's Ronald Reagan.
01:14:21.640
Instead, we have Joe Biden and Kamala Harris attempting to walk this line.
01:14:27.740
And this Pentagon, which is a different situation than it was back in the day.
01:14:33.440
Maybe we will, maybe God will bless us to avoid a World War III scenario.
01:14:38.580
But man, I, I, I mean, it's going to take him to avoid it.
01:14:47.420
But at least I'd have some faith that he'd make the best decisions possible.
01:14:53.640
And even if you don't think like it's something that's intentional, just the, the bumbling
01:14:58.580
idiocy of these people, they can't do anything right.
01:15:04.900
And we're trying to micromanage World War III on the backs of these buffoons?
01:15:09.140
Can I just do a Red Cell session with you right now?
01:15:13.880
It's a war gaming thing that the government does with fiction writers.
01:15:18.780
And they're just like, think of the different possibilities.
01:15:22.360
Well, so let me, let me Red Cell game this out as someone who wishes our country ill and
01:15:32.620
We've got a problem with, you know, these Republicans and the Trump supporters and the
01:15:38.520
people who are for the Constitution and they're gaining steam and it's, it's not
01:15:49.680
Well, put the screws to him some more, but that's not going to be enough because people
01:16:00.440
Well, Woodrow Wilson, he said he wasn't going to get us in.
01:16:04.240
If you just elect him again, he wouldn't, he would keep us out of the war.
01:16:07.100
And then right after he was elected, he got us into a war, which allowed him to then say
01:16:17.740
And so he could silence all of the people who were against the war and he put them in
01:16:25.040
Now the next president came in and pardoned them, but he put them in prison.
01:16:29.620
So you want to silence people, you want to collapse the economy, you want to be able to have military
01:16:54.060
Wilson had control of the justice department and everything else.
01:17:01.360
I've talked about this before, but nobody knows it.
01:17:08.540
And, uh, it's this gigantic explosion of all of these munitions and the munitions blow up
01:17:15.980
because there was a German saboteur that came in and set fire to the place.
01:17:21.380
Well, it was right before the election and Wilson was saying, we can't go to war.
01:17:25.180
And so I can't, I can't have a German saboteur be responsible for that.
01:17:30.380
So he blamed the corporations that don't care about people's safety because it works with my
01:17:44.140
And then the world kind of forgot about it until, until December 7th, the Pentagon had
01:17:57.220
Cause he said, I want to round up all these Japanese, their enemies.
01:18:12.740
You're telling me there's not going to be a spy.
01:18:15.000
Well, no, I'm not telling you that, but I'm telling you the majority are good Americans
01:18:24.340
And he comes out and says, December 7th, you know, we saw what could be done and there
01:18:31.780
And if you remember Black Tom, we have the report now on what really happened.
01:18:45.120
And he used that 20 years later to round up the Japanese.
01:18:52.580
And he did it with the entire industrial complex backing him up.
01:18:58.440
He did it with the entire government backing him up.
01:19:03.960
So you're saying that a lot of the stuff related to Ukraine is out of the never let a crisis
01:19:11.900
I think this is the biggest money laundering scam ever.
01:19:20.620
Because there was obviously a very real event with Russia invading.
01:19:37.360
I think they are doing it to grow the military industrial complex as well and the scientific
01:19:45.540
They're also I mean, this is pure speculation, but I don't trust that there's not a lot of
01:19:53.100
money and a lot of weapons being sold on the black market or coming back here in the form
01:19:59.920
of cash from offshore accounts into accounts of Americans.
01:20:05.480
This is redistribution of wealth, except all these stupid Marxists that are for all of
01:20:11.620
these people are like, yeah, we're going to get it.
01:20:15.900
But it's not going to be the power of the money.
01:20:18.140
All of it is going to the top, making the rich and the evil rich.
01:20:31.100
Back in just a second, Michael lives in Connecticut.
01:20:33.580
He used to play a lot of tennis, at least he used to, until he started having a regular
01:20:42.620
Then eventually he couldn't play at all anymore.
01:20:48.300
When he heard me talking about on this show relief factor, he decided he'd give it a try.
01:20:54.140
Michael, I'm glad that you took it, and I'm glad you wrote in.
01:20:58.040
He said, after a few weeks, he started to feel better, decided to go out and play tennis again.
01:21:27.260
So, I want to take you back, what was it, a week and a half ago?
01:21:56.120
He has a plan to kill the president or kidnap a member of the president's family, shoot up the White House, and take over.
01:22:08.180
He comes in, and he tries to bash through the gates of the White House with a U-Haul truck.
01:22:25.780
Then, all kinds of things I've never seen before happen.
01:22:29.360
He is in his car, and as he gets out, he is holding a Nazi flag and waving that around.
01:22:43.800
He's a legal citizen here, but he's from India.
01:22:50.000
The prosecutor drops the charges on the attempt to harm or kill the president or his family, and they just charge him with mischief and property damage.
01:23:07.040
Now, the prosecutors argued last week that he needs to remain behind bars.
01:23:15.680
Due to his anti-democratic views, he expressed in a speech inside the defendant's journal.
01:23:23.900
No, that's not why he should remain behind bars.
01:23:30.580
No, the fact that he took that belief and went to the White House to kill the president.
01:23:52.140
We'll keep following it, quite honestly, so you don't have to.
01:24:30.580
What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:24:55.100
You should, because everything you're hearing in the media and from McCarthy and all of these people about how great this is, absolutely wrong.
01:25:06.720
In fact, he is the go-to guy in the House and the Senate.
01:25:10.940
Everybody goes to him and says, hey, what does this really say?
01:25:15.400
He is beside himself with what is actually in this bill.
01:25:25.540
He says there's 20 senators right now lockstep.
01:25:36.320
They will not vote for it on the Republican side.
01:25:57.000
Remind them they work for you and they're coming up for a job review soon.
01:26:24.020
Goldline is celebrating Memorial Day for the whole week with a special offer to both their new and existing clients with just this spending bill.
01:26:37.480
The cuts in one portion are negated in the very next section where it's like, yeah, the White House sole discretion.
01:26:45.580
They can they could stop that last thing that we were saying.
01:26:49.080
We don't even need we're not even going to read it.
01:26:51.720
You could have six trillion dollars spent by January 2025.
01:27:07.240
Well, they're not going to nobody's going to pay for that.
01:27:14.640
They're going to have to just write an IOU because they're already through all your Social Security money.
01:27:21.660
The right and I owe you to the Federal Reserve.
01:27:25.980
The banks and they'll print the money and then they'll spend it.
01:27:30.260
And then you're they're going to spend it and expect you to go out and buy things.
01:27:34.060
But you don't have any money because already if you're living at fifty five thousand dollars a year, you are already over the new poverty.
01:27:47.360
It's actually thirty three thousand dollars a year is the poverty line.
01:27:50.620
But, you know, people generally say fifty thousand and you can kind of make it family of four.
01:28:07.860
Goldline celebrating Memorial Day this week with special offer to both new and existing clients.
01:28:12.820
Sometimes I forget I'm in a commercial with every tube of twenty five of Goldline's popular one quarter ounce Mayflower gold round.
01:28:19.680
You'll you're going to receive at no charge either five of the five ounce silver American flag bars or you can opt to receive twenty five of the one ounce Liberty Bell silver rounds.
01:28:32.720
When it comes to gold by as small as you possibly can, when it comes to silver, maybe the five, maybe the five ounce bar.
01:28:42.560
I like the one ounce Liberty Bell silver rounds and silver is going to play a role in a transition period.
01:28:53.100
I think eight six six gold line eight six six gold line or gold line dot com.
01:28:58.500
Stu, do you have on your to do list to prepare for, you know, trouble?
01:29:11.300
Now, I'm asking you as an alcoholic to prepare for trouble.
01:29:22.280
Now, remember, I'm an alcoholic whose faith also restricts alcohol.
01:29:40.360
If there is no painkillers, it is also, you know, not as good as rubbing alcohol, but tastes better.
01:29:52.860
And there's going to be a lot of people that are just going to want to trade for alcohol.
01:29:59.200
Now, tell them that you have it buried in a backyard, some far, far away place from your house.
01:30:07.180
We have to start thinking about trade and trading, you know, and you can get Bud Light cheap right now.
01:30:13.380
So go out and buy Bud Light is what Glenn Beck just said.
01:30:19.340
And there were only like 10 made or something like that.
01:30:25.720
I think that there was a few of them that were made.
01:30:29.120
Because didn't he come up with a tray of a bunch of them?
01:30:38.540
I just think that is an important piece of American history.
01:30:42.160
But obviously, you know, you don't necessarily want to go with the carbonated beverage route for your particular needs here.
01:30:48.340
Would that be something that would be allowable, you know, faith wise for you?
01:30:52.620
Like, is there like if you're using it for medicinal purposes?
01:31:14.540
No, but you really think that that is something.
01:31:21.320
I mean, there's not a lot of people that are thinking this way.
01:31:35.980
You you have if if they don't pass this, you actually have a secretary of our treasury and
01:31:45.160
a president that might actually default on the the the debt.
01:32:03.700
Well, you would not pay other bills for us, right?
01:32:06.500
Like you would just make sure our creditors got their money.
01:32:13.280
When you when you have a problem of financially for a month, you make sure your credit cards
01:32:17.300
are paid, your mortgages paid, your car payments paid.
01:32:21.720
Maybe you don't do those extra things that month.
01:32:23.580
If you're cutting corners, maybe you don't go buy new clothes that month.
01:32:29.780
You because you just don't you don't raise the debt ceiling, period.
01:32:40.220
Do you think thirty one point four trillion is enough?
01:32:42.720
Is that what you're trying to tell me right now?
01:32:44.420
I mean, more is always better, you know, but I'm thinking no.
01:32:49.440
Like, you know, and like if we were in a rational society where we could say, all right, let's
01:32:55.420
say thirty five trillion, but it it will be constitutionally guaranteed we could never
01:33:01.300
Like something crazy like that, which would never happen.
01:33:03.700
But if that were to be true, like you could make the argument.
01:33:07.060
We've gone a long way down this really wrong road.
01:33:14.600
Take a few steps to slow ourselves down and then turn around and go the other way.
01:33:17.460
Stay away from that thirty five trillion number at all costs.
01:33:23.360
I mean, all these deals don't plan to actually keep us under some future debt limit number.
01:33:30.140
It's just a negotiation point to do a little bit of cost cutting around the edges.
01:33:34.840
And if you talk to Mike Lee, you're not even really getting that.
01:33:39.820
But like if they were trying to sell this to us, Glenn is like, OK, look, the president
01:33:45.120
of the United States told us he wasn't going to talk about this.
01:33:48.560
He spent ninety seven days not even negotiating.
01:33:50.560
The only reason we're close to this deadline at all is because of him saying, no, I won't
01:33:56.160
So considering we started with absolutely nothing, the fact that we reclaim two billion dollars
01:34:12.620
And you said, all right, look, they had 80 billion.
01:34:17.540
We don't have any power to do with this by our by ourselves.
01:34:22.700
So look, we take the small win here and fight it out later on.
01:34:28.220
So the IRS, we just got two billion dollars, but not really two billion dollars.
01:34:33.420
They were given, what, 87 billion dollars per new workforce?
01:34:43.060
Think about what they can buy with 78 billion dollars.
01:34:55.100
The IRS, just in the last two years, has spent over 10 million dollars on weaponry and gear.
01:35:05.020
They also began hiring agents that will carry guns and make arrests with job openings now in all 50 states.
01:35:16.120
Broken down, 2.3 million has been spent on ammunition alone.
01:35:20.900
The remaining has gone into shields, rifles, and tactical shotguns.
01:35:27.660
If someone breaks the law, I guess it's a tax law.
01:35:35.500
Open the books, broke down the numbers, indicating 4,500 guns, over 5 million rounds of ammunition have been stockpiled.
01:35:46.800
There are now more federal agents with arrest and firearm authority, 200,000, than there are U.S. Marines, 186,000.
01:36:01.180
I think they can, you know, we lasted this long without SWAT teams for the farmers and the tax accountants.
01:36:14.400
I have to tell you, I told you today that I'm in the middle of acquiring a lot of history.
01:36:43.660
I can't remember the name of the Catholic Church, but it was the Catholic Church.
01:36:51.420
Nagasaki was where Christians hid out for years, up until like 1900.
01:36:58.920
So all the underground church in Japan was in Nagasaki.
01:37:01.780
And then when it became legal, the Catholics built this giant cathedral there.
01:37:18.680
And you should see the pictures of this cathedral before and after.
01:37:42.200
And you know some of the other things that I'm trying to acquire now that are...
01:37:50.100
I mean, we've done museums before that were really good, but the level that this is at now is really getting insane.
01:37:58.440
And we're taking a lot of it, not all of it by far.
01:38:03.040
You'll probably see maybe 2%, 1%, 2% of the museum's collection.
01:38:11.560
And I have a family member, an uncle, who's a history teacher.
01:38:15.560
He was down here, I don't know, two years ago now.
01:38:19.140
And you took him on a tour of the museum, which is, what, half the size of what it is now?
01:38:26.320
And he was completely blown away about all the stuff that was in there.
01:38:31.180
You'll learn more about history just in that 90 minutes that you're there than you'll ever...
01:38:36.300
You've ever learned in your life, most likely, unless you're a...
01:38:39.140
Well, I think even if you went to school, but if you went to school recently, especially.
01:38:42.840
But I am really becoming concerned that this is not going to be able to be seen soon.
01:38:49.880
I really think that we are headed down a road where this stuff could be claimed.
01:39:01.420
It would be claimed as the government just coming in and saying, those are...
01:39:17.380
And they're generally in the later afternoon or early, early morning or later at night for a few days are left.
01:39:35.200
And I mean, this was a test to see if I could put it on the road year round.
01:39:42.340
Some of the things we have to do to protect it and everything else, and I'm just not sure.
01:39:50.020
Pray that it's not lost in a horrible boating accident, because that would be...
01:39:54.120
Well, take a very big boat and a very big lake, but it could happen.
01:39:57.460
It's really irresponsible for you to take them out on the water.
01:40:04.980

First of all, there was the story we haven't covered yet about Joe Biden.
01:41:47.020
The new things that are out now about Hunter Biden are extraordinarily disturbing.
01:42:00.300
Ray, yesterday, met with Congress from the FBI because the Congress had a confidential source from the FBI
01:42:14.000
that that was a trusted source of the FBI that came in and filed a report and said,
01:42:22.900
your vice president, Joe Biden at the time, is taking bribes.
01:42:32.180
So, the House said, you've got to come and bring that document.
01:42:39.240
Man, the FBI stonewalled, stonewalled, stonewalled.
01:42:41.580
Well, last night was, or yesterday was the last day.
01:42:45.580
And Christopher Ray said, well, you can come to my office and see it.
01:42:57.880
But we're also going to press charges on contempt with you.
01:43:19.260
I don't have any inside intelligence tells us today.
01:43:31.320
In fact, they started to discredit the confidential human source.
01:43:37.100
So, somebody they trusted, when he filed this, they started to discredit him.
01:43:49.640
If the Justice Department is burying things and discrediting people that have evidence that, hey, corruption is happening, that's just as bad.
01:44:02.360
So, Biden, whether he committed bribery or not, I don't know.
01:44:06.460
But what did the FBI and Justice Department do when they got that information?
01:44:15.720
An interesting addition to the Ray thing, too, is right now, like, you know, the Trump team is saying, like, look at Ron DeSantis.
01:44:28.020
And DeSantis' team is like, wait a minute, Trump, that was your nominee.
01:44:36.220
We should just point out, the one senator who did vote against Christopher Ray, one, was Rand Paul.
01:44:43.180
And so, if you want to give him some, anyone credit on that particular issue, it's Rand Paul.
01:44:48.120
All the candidates that are currently in the race, they don't get to really talk about that.
01:44:51.100
Can I ask you, how weird is it that Donald Trump is saying that New York was better than Florida in deaths and COVID?
01:45:02.120
As a man who happens to be the purveyor of Andrew Cuomo was awful.com, please don't get me started on this particular point.
01:45:18.460
He's just saying it because right now he's in a war with DeSantis.
01:45:21.420
He was much more honest back when he was criticizing Cuomo.
01:45:25.620
He doesn't believe Cuomo is better than anybody.
01:45:29.780
But it's the game that we're going to play here for the next year.
01:45:35.500
I love it when we have infighting and we're shooting each other.
01:45:42.160
You wouldn't think something so simple would be so difficult to accomplish.
01:45:53.000
I think you should be born old because once you have wisdom, then you're ready to do stuff.
01:46:00.800
Anyway, there's something called relief factor sleep, just like the regular relief factor that you take to help with your pain.
01:46:10.900
I will tell you, as parents, my wife and I have had a hard time sleeping recently.
01:46:15.900
In fact, my wife said to me, I don't think I've really slept well for maybe three days.
01:46:23.400
I asked her next day, did you get any sleep last night?
01:46:35.800
Call 800, the number four relief, 800, the number four relief, relieffactor.com.
01:46:47.760
Head over to blazetv.com slash Glenn and get a subscription to Blaze TV.
01:47:05.800
I didn't realize how bad this was until they said, OK, 30 seconds.
01:47:18.820
Stu and I are actually sitting here going, all right, so where do we go?
01:47:30.440
They're going to eat the rich there in the first place.
01:47:32.600
But St. Kitts, very affordable global citizenship package.
01:47:41.480
Yeah, because I feel like, because you're always like, oh, we got to go to like Israel
01:47:47.560
I would rather be vaporized while I'm standing.
01:47:52.500
While I'm with a bunch of people going, yeah, we're going to fight and stand for what is.
01:48:05.680
See, I've learned this from my many, many years as a sports fan, Clinton.
01:48:09.700
And you know my two main teams, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Toronto Blue Jays, which have
01:48:19.320
Eagles fans, anywhere you walk in an Eagles shirt, around here, really anywhere in America,
01:48:25.100
you're likely to get hit in the head with a brick.
01:48:29.460
Toronto Blue Jays fans, never, they don't care at all.
01:48:33.140
No one hates the Blue Jays because they're completely irrelevant.
01:48:38.560
Who would even, who even knows that St. Kitts is a place, let alone a place where people
01:48:49.540
He lost the travel brochure and the passport application in a boating accident.
01:48:59.440
You've got some, I mean, they're going to invade everybody else.
01:49:03.940
Everyone's going to talk about the big ones with all the weapons.
01:49:06.440
We're just going to be this nice little island and we're going to go to the beach and eat
01:49:09.500
a couple of coconuts and pineapples or whatever's there.
01:49:14.600
And, you know, very affordable packages, quote unquote.
01:49:18.080
Quote, so look, this is, if you need me, just go to St. Kitts or Nevis.
01:49:34.160
And this company that is providing this tour for us, I don't even know.
01:49:43.580
I just met them, you know, in happenstance and they're like historians that do like history
01:49:56.620
Sounds like the beginning of a Nicolas Cage movie.
01:49:59.840
So anyway, so I was talking to these guys and, you know, we started talking about the
01:50:04.700
world today because in Scotland, they're starting to make the 15 minute cities where you're
01:50:11.420
not, you, everything is there in 15 minutes of what you want.
01:50:18.820
You don't need to go anywhere that you can't walk within 15 minutes.
01:50:23.540
And I said, this is really getting weird and spooky.
01:50:26.540
And, uh, and he said, uh, well, it's not very much longer before you're not traveling internationally
01:50:46.060
He said, it's clear the groundwork that they are laying now over in Europe that you might
01:50:51.640
be able to take a vacation, but you have to save your carbon credits.
01:50:55.620
So maybe you go to Europe once, or maybe you just stay in your own country or your own
01:51:02.320
region that this, that all of this stuff is coming down because of the carbon situation.
01:51:11.780
And I keep thinking that, you know, I, I, I've, I've tried to get a passport to Israel
01:51:21.760
Um, but, uh, you know, the beach watching the mushroom cloud and in the distance, I
01:51:27.840
Uh, but I, I really don't think there's not, I think wherever you are is where you will
01:51:35.480
So if you want to, you know, if you're someplace and you're like, I, I don't mind living here
01:51:40.060
for the rest of my life and everything I have is within a 15 minute walk.
01:51:45.320
And I think when this by 2030, I think when this really hits, that's the way life's going
01:51:50.720
to be soon as, especially as soon as you get cars that, you know, everybody can shut
01:51:56.960
off, which is why I always have the nav system removed from my car.
01:52:05.100
Um, and a Faraday cage, you can buy them for your car.
01:52:09.320
I'm just saying, it's just bizarre that we're talking about this stuff.
01:52:14.260
I mean, I think it's fascinating to look at, but it's also like weird, you don't know where
01:52:19.420
And I think if you like, you get to that point where it just feels like you have no idea what's
01:52:27.160
Like it used to be, I think that we lived in a predictable place for a very long time.
01:52:31.480
And I think that's exited, it's exited the building.
01:52:33.940
But we, we lived, honestly, if you're my age, you are the luckiest generation of, of humans
01:52:48.080
Well, I mean, it doesn't have to be, but I'm saying historically where we are right now,
01:52:53.640
certainly up to this point, up to this point, you are the, you grew up after the world wars
01:52:59.780
and sure we had the scare of the Soviet missiles and we have had other wars, et cetera, but look
01:53:06.780
at the 1950s and the sixties and even the seventies and eighties in America where we were really
01:53:17.180
You can say that all the way into the nineties and with, uh, technology, I think up until
01:53:25.140
2010, you know, when the iPhone came out, because that I think was poison to the society and our
01:53:32.900
children, you know, when we had social media and, and everybody starts looking down at their,
01:53:38.640
Um, but that period, I mean, what an unbelievable time period we have been blessed to live in.
01:53:49.940
And, and if, if we're not willing to not go to target in defense of that, well, I mean,
01:53:59.220
there's nothing, nothing would ever make you stand up, you know?
01:54:07.260
What if, what if, what if your pharmacy is CVS inside of target?
01:54:24.720
Are you allowed to walk into target to get your medication at night wearing a mask?
01:54:30.080
Well, not a mask mask, you know, you don't, you want to protect yourself from sunglasses.
01:54:35.660
I saw somebody with a, with a, with a bag, a target bag the other day, and I just looked
01:54:42.040
at, I knew, I knew them and they're walking, you know, walking into their house and I just
01:54:47.820
And I just point at the bag and they're like, all of a sudden like, Oh crap.
01:54:54.000
And I said, I rolled down the window and I said, don't let me ever see you with a target
01:54:58.920
And there might be somebody that's wearing dark glasses and a hat carrying a bag that
01:55:04.100
might look like you, but that's the only way I ever want to see you wearing a target
01:55:11.360
And now technically they, this is not supposed to start.
01:55:27.200
Because I think that there is a, an interesting part of this in that these companies have all
01:55:32.500
seen what's happened the last couple of weeks with Bud Light and Target.
01:55:35.580
And they've all had for six months, this plan to be super woke as they enter this month.
01:55:45.320
And now I guarantee a lot of them are wrestling with what do we do?
01:55:49.360
Like one company that I, that I won't mention, um, put, because I don't know this to be a hundred
01:55:56.020
percent true, but decided to post, uh, a single post about pride month rather than changing
01:56:06.300
And I know this for somebody who works there, but like, I don't have it confirmed enough
01:56:11.980
But it was, they were like, they had a plan to change the logo.
01:56:15.980
And because all this stuff happened, they decided, you know what?
01:56:19.100
We'll put out one on June 1st and then we'll act like it never happened.
01:56:24.440
So they're still kind of checking the box with the pride month, but it's not going to be
01:56:28.180
beating you over the head every time you go to their account for the 30 days.
01:56:31.000
Now, I'm not saying that that's, uh, you know, a, some sort of solution or anything,
01:56:36.140
but it is interesting that these, some of these companies are actually feeling the pressure
01:56:39.620
and saying, Hey, like, let's, let's, we actually feel, we feel the conservative complaint here
01:56:48.220
Cause usually they don't, they just don't care.
01:56:51.440
Uh, you know, who really had it made, who really had it made too bad.
01:56:55.580
They're so woke because they'd go, Oh man, let's reintroduce the NBC Peacock for pride
01:57:09.060
I was thinking about, can you, what about Skittles?
01:57:18.480
It feels like something that might not taste as good as you think it does.
01:57:38.240
Hey, let me just give you a couple of things here on the Bud Light.
01:57:41.540
Uh, Bud Light has just for, uh, for, you know, wonderful pride month, uh, has just
01:57:50.640
$200,000, uh, to the NGLCC in support of its community of color initiative designed to support
01:58:00.020
and grow the success of minority LGBTQ plus owned businesses through certification scholarship
01:58:08.140
So, Bud Light has, uh, just done that in absolutely related news.
01:58:14.020
Anheuser-Busch now sees $27 billion, uh, of their value gone.
01:58:21.680
What's the appropriate window to look at the stock price?
01:58:24.880
Because obviously it's not, it's gone on paper.
01:58:27.020
Uh, like if you were to look six months from now and it was still down this percentage,
01:58:30.260
you'd be like, wow, that was a really impactful event.
01:58:33.400
Uh, Target now ninth straight day, $13 billion now for, uh, Target.
01:58:39.580
I was looking at that stock too, um, earlier today as we were kind of look, doing the prep
01:58:43.980
and you see it's pretty much flat for the past six months until this starts.
01:58:52.380
When you look at the Walmart stock, um, I was like, well, how does that compare?
01:58:57.880
Because of course we should all know that Walmart does a lot of this crap too, but you look
01:59:03.520
Um, it was about, I mean, it was down actually going into this period and has now pretty much
01:59:10.700
If you go to the same, about the same date, it's down a little bit.
01:59:13.360
So this is not just normal movement of, of these big box stores.
01:59:17.700
And those big box stores like Target, um, that are convenient and cheap should be going
01:59:24.280
up in value because people are needing cheap stores.
01:59:31.300
By the way, uh, don't forget your children's school is also have, has a whole month of pride
01:59:39.340
Uh, you might want to, you might want to go and opt out of those, uh, activities at your
01:59:49.240
Cause that one is, you know, that stuff could be happening and you don't even know about
01:59:53.820
Uh, it particularly if you're going, I mean, public school is where that's going to be the
01:59:57.580
big thing, but I wouldn't even rule it out in some private schools.
02:00:01.280
There are all kinds of private schools that are doing it.
02:00:06.860
She wrote in about her dog's experience with rough green.
02:00:09.040
She said, I'm a very happy to say my dog actually eats this product willingly.
02:00:14.060
I have tried vitamins, probiotic supplements, but she always turns her nose away and refuses
02:00:24.700
I'm really impressed by the ingredient list compared to other supplements as well.
02:00:36.940
So I brought it to my vet and said, what do you, what do you think?
02:00:41.240
And she looks at it and she's like, this is fantastic.
02:00:45.940
Uh, so Uno's been taking it now for several years and he had more energy as a puppy.
02:00:55.660
He's getting kind of old for a German shepherd, but he's slowing down, but I haven't seen any
02:01:02.700
Um, and I think it's rough greens, rough greens, R U F F greens.com slash back rough greens.com.
02:01:11.060
You just pay for shipping rough greens.com slash back or call eight three, three G L E N N 33.
02:01:40.900
We're, uh, we're very, uh, glad that you, you, uh, tuned in today.
02:01:49.360
Yeah, they're, uh, they've been working on this for a while now and no one seems to really
02:01:56.060
And it's weird that it's not a bigger story just from, it's just interesting.
02:02:08.260
I don't think people actually believe there's alien life.
02:02:12.560
They think we're going to find out that it's going to be military technology or something
02:02:28.600
Except this film was, uh, taken in 63 and, uh, and then I think the archives had it and
02:02:37.120
then it was used when they opened up the panel again in the 1970s because nobody believed
02:02:44.300
the first panel and they use that film and they said, yeah, it looks like, um, quote,
02:02:52.900
Kennedy was probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy and that two gunmen likely
02:03:01.120
That's a quote from who the, uh, I can't remember what the name of the report is.
02:03:06.580
Somebody's shouting it right now in their office or their car, uh, how special committee
02:03:11.280
on, uh, assassinations, uh, in 1978 that saw this video, but we haven't seen this video.
02:03:21.620
And now the family is trying to get the video back.
02:03:24.460
They're like, uh, you were supposed to return it to us and you, we've never gotten in.
02:03:32.400
I mean, it's, it's just, it's, we've learned so much that honestly, I thought all was crazy
02:03:52.900
Uh, he's the one actually running, uh, the government.
02:04:05.000
They've already come down here and they're doubling as humans.
02:04:08.300
I feel like that would be a better explanation as to what's really happening.
