00:02:05.400 Tara Reid. Oh, by the way, welcome. It's Pat and Stu today for Glenn, who's not in today. Hopefully

00:02:12.380 be back tomorrow. Tara Reid had some interesting things to say about Joe Biden. We'll get into

00:02:20.180 that. Joe Biden's got some interesting things to say about a lot of stuff. Share that with you as

00:02:25.760 well. Coming up and it'll start in 60 seconds. Terry wrote in about her dog's experience with

00:02:33.080 Rough Greens. She writes, my two dogs have been on Rough Greens for four months. I no longer have to

00:02:37.900 give Tilly an allergy pill that she previously needed. And I stopped a probiotic I was using

00:02:42.820 because Rough Greens already has it. And Tucker, who wasn't eating much at all, now has a great

00:02:48.060 appetite. Thank you, Rough Greens. Is that what Tucker Carlson's doing now? He's eating Rough Greens.

00:02:52.820 Wow. I mean, it's been a big change. Thanks for writing in, Terry. Dog food is dead food. Everybody

00:02:58.120 knows that. Nutrition isn't brown. It's green. Fortunately, naturopathic doctor Dennis Black

00:03:03.040 invented the solution. It's Rough Greens. Rough Greens isn't a dog food. It's a supplement.

00:03:07.520 You sprinkle on the food and it's full of vitamins and minerals, probiotics and antioxidants,

00:03:12.580 things that are going to make your dog healthy and happy. Most dogs love Rough Greens right off the

00:03:44.300 Biden accuser, Tara Reid. Now, she claims that Biden pushed her up against a wall 0.87

00:03:49.580 and sexually assaulted her.

00:03:53.360 And had a contemporaneous witness, we should note. At the time, she told someone at the time

00:03:58.980 it happened. Right. So which kind of lends it some credibility. Well, it's the ultimate

00:04:04.180 credibility to every case against every other guy. Yes. Right. Like that's what that's the

00:04:09.740 whole game. Yes. Well, this week on social media, she said that if something happened to

00:04:16.560 her, she's not suicidal and all roads lead to Joe Biden. So she's apparently a little nervous

00:04:25.920 about, uh, where she stands with the supposedly most powerful man on earth. Um, Reid alleged

00:04:35.780 during the, uh, of course, 2020 presidential election that in 1993, then Senator Biden forced

00:04:42.780 himself on her, uh, while she was a staffer in a deserted hallway of a Senate building

00:04:48.880 and, uh, and sexually assaulted her. Um, she said, I want to make something clear. If something

00:04:55.640 happens to me, all roads lead to Joe Biden, Joe Biden and DNC political machine threats,

00:05:03.640 bullying, and intimidation over the last three years will not work. I am not suicidal. I should

00:05:09.880 not be under investigation, nor am I a foreign agent. I'm a private citizen. I was a former

00:05:16.920 staffer of Joe Biden's that was chosen to step forward to tell the truth that has chosen. She

00:05:23.560 wasn't chosen by somebody. She chose the tactics use using intimidation and bullying to silence 0.99

00:05:29.540 me and suppress me using DOJ and FBI and social media will not work. Leave me alone. I didn't

00:05:37.360 realize she was being hassled this way or intimidated. Uh, hadn't read that in the past.

00:05:42.780 She's had all sorts of problems. I know Glenn did a podcast with her, um, not too long ago.

00:05:47.960 Uh, it was a little while. I think, uh, let's see. Well, the, the title of the podcast on YouTube

00:05:53.960 is we'll effing destroy you Tara Reid punished for exposing Biden. So I think she's been talking

00:06:00.660 about this a little for a while now. Uh, if you want to check that out, it is available on YouTube

00:06:05.120 for everybody. Um, you know, look, it's really hard to go back multiple decades to litigate one

00:06:12.760 of these situations. It is. Yeah. It does. It's impossible to prove. It's impossible to prove,

00:06:17.340 but we're seeing this with E Jean Carroll right now, right? Like, you know, I don't know what did

00:06:22.600 something happen with her and Donald Trump? I don't think so, but how would we know it was 30 years

00:06:28.500 ago? Right. And how would you know? Um, but I will say that, uh, if you look at the hypocrisy

00:06:35.580 of the situation from the left and the media who constantly tell us we should either believe all

00:06:41.380 women, I guess they've backed off of that one a little bit. They haven't been saying that quite

00:06:44.780 as often, but that was their initial pitch. Just believe women, whatever they say, whatever a woman 1.00

00:06:48.540 trust them by their genitals. If they happen to have a certain type, uh, then believe them. Now, 0.97

00:06:55.300 of course they don't have to have that type to be a woman and, uh, you should also believe them,

00:07:00.280 I guess. But, uh, unless they, of course, commit a mass shooting as a transgender person, 1.00

00:07:04.740 then they're not transgendered that then they were lying the entire time. I don't know their rules 0.97

00:07:09.400 anymore. I've lost track of them, but they make them up as they go. That is. And so you never really

00:07:15.040 know what the rules are. Uh, it depends on the circumstance. It depends on what benefits them

00:07:20.940 at that moment. That's what it depends on fundamental principle at play. Yep. What

00:07:26.420 benefits them at this moment to, to, to entertain Tara Reade's claims do not benefit them at this

00:07:34.440 moment. Now there may be a time in the future they may decide, you know what? We don't want

00:07:37.960 Joe Biden anymore. We want Gavin Newsom. We want Joe Biden to lose. Then they will take Tara Reade's

00:07:42.140 claim seriously. Yep. That's when that will happen. It's what happened. And it'll just come up

00:07:46.380 like out of the blue. Like they just realized, Oh wait, Tara Reade claims that she was sexually 1.00

00:07:53.640 assaulted by Joe Biden. We should look into that. We should. Of course. It's very serious. It's what

00:07:59.300 happened basically with, with Bill Clinton, right? Bill Clinton was the darling. They ignored all the

00:08:05.460 very credible accusations against him for years and years and years and years and years. They blew it

00:08:10.460 all off. It was right-wing conspiracy back then. Yeah. And then, uh, the 2016 election happens.

00:08:17.660 They have no longer have a use for Hillary Clinton. She's gone. The me too thing is the thing they want

00:08:24.420 to push at this time. So then they decide to, you know, toss Bill Clinton aside largely. And that's

00:08:31.140 basically what's happened. Yep. You know, now he's no longer, he's not protected like he once was.

00:08:35.760 Nope. Not at all. No longer useful. Wow. Um, also Biden, apparently his speech writers have

00:08:44.900 decided that it's time for him to start addressing his age in a funny way, you know, and his mental

00:08:52.180 acuity in a funny way. I've already thought it was pretty funny, frankly. Did you? It's been

00:08:58.000 hilarious at times, though also really disturbing at times. Yes. Yes. Uh, because I'm not sure

00:09:05.500 there's anything funnier than the leader of the free world being completely incompetent. I mean,

00:09:12.960 that's a scream to me when you start joking about that yourself. Uh, that's really funny. Uh, but the

00:09:19.740 guy is going to be 82 years old when the election rolls around. And so I guess they, they've decided

00:09:27.060 that his approval rating is so low now that they should maybe start acknowledging it and then own

00:09:34.240 it. And I think they, they believe that maybe that'll get people, uh, back in, uh, or get him

00:09:40.960 back in their good graces. I don't know. Even Democrats, I, I think are a little leery right

00:09:46.900 now of him. Yeah. I mean, the polling is certainly showing. I saw, uh, among blacks, 55% plan to vote

00:09:54.240 for him. Do you see that? I mean, that's a horrific 55% for a Democrat. It's usually in 0.66

00:09:59.920 the nineties. Yeah. Now it wasn't even in the nineties for him. It was in the eighties before

00:10:04.660 this, but that's still seen a major drop off way below. Now this is an ABC Washington post

00:10:10.000 poll, which you should take as seriously as you take other polls. I mean, it's not like a crazy

00:10:15.400 pollster or anything that's going to give you hard right wing results. It is, I would say a really

00:10:20.680 bad poll for Biden in that it's not exactly in line with, uh, with most of the other pollsters.

00:10:26.860 It's much, much worse. That being said, it's still the 36% approval rating is way under, what

00:10:32.700 is it like 43%? 42, 44 is usually where he is now. He's been in the thirties and 36 is you're

00:10:39.920 bordering on that point where they start thinking maybe we should run somebody else. I mean, I think

00:10:46.080 that number is probably 30. You start seeing, uh, you start seeing, um, approval ratings,

00:10:51.840 you know, in the high twenties. I will not be surprised at all. If somebody else big gets

00:10:56.420 in the race. And I mean, you, you see the impact that RFK jr has had, you know, this is not a

00:11:01.040 guy who's seen, he has no real campaign put together. He's just a guy who, you know, he's,

00:11:06.220 he's obviously got a big media personality, but he's not a guy who has put together a serious

00:11:10.380 campaign apparatus and he's still showing up at 21, 22%. Yeah. That's a catastrophe for a sitting 1.00

00:11:15.840 president. Like if, if, you know, Gavin Newsom got in, maybe you'd expect that, but the poll

00:11:23.520 that they, that showed, uh, Gavin Newsom or excuse me, RFK jr at 21 or 22%, the same poll

00:11:29.760 had Ron DeSantis at lower than that. It had low DeSantis at like 18. So like the idea that

00:11:38.200 RFK jr is making more inroads than Ron DeSantis, I don't think is actually accurate in the, in

00:11:44.940 the longterm, but you know, I mean, DeSantis hasn't even announced yet. There's a million

00:11:48.040 asterisks to that, but we talk about DeSantis all the time and RFK jr is not really seen as

00:11:53.200 a major threat. If you put a guy like, you know, if you start seeing approval ratings in

00:11:58.400 the 29, 28 area, you'll see potentially somebody like Gavin Newsom who really wants this. It's

00:12:05.420 blatantly obvious. This guy wants this job and he doesn't want to wait. I don't think,

00:12:09.940 I don't think he wants to wait until 2028. No. This, he thinks this is his time. And you

00:12:15.080 know what? Usually, usually when you have that feeling, you better go for it. How many times

00:12:22.280 have we seen candidates be like, you know, I don't know. I'm going to wait four years.

00:12:26.660 Bad idea. If what your goal is, is to, uh, to become president of the United States, usually

00:12:34.160 that's a failing strategy. I mean, Chris Christie's probably the perfect example of this. You go back

00:12:38.160 to when he was first kind of hitting the scene and everyone was talking about him and he was

00:12:42.560 the hot thing on the conservative side. Yep. And then he was like, you know what? I'm going

00:12:46.780 to wait. And then he waited and he made no impact whatsoever. And he's, and we found out

00:12:52.380 who he really was. That's the problem. A lot of it is like, unfortunately the people who get

00:12:56.940 excited about you eventually learn who you are. You better jump in now. And you know, look,

00:13:03.320 if you don't think you can do the job, uh, you know, you shouldn't jump in, but if you believe

00:13:07.600 you you'd be best person for the job and understand why you'd want to jump in to the race. If you think 0.99

00:13:13.700 you have a path to the presidency, the issue here, of course, you know, on the Republican side is you

00:13:19.040 get so many people in there. I don't know that we learn anything. You know, I think you want to have

00:13:23.220 a situation where, you know, look, Ron DeSantis hasn't been tested at this level. He's never run a

00:13:29.760 national campaign like this. He hasn't been tested at this level. We need to see if he can handle

00:13:33.980 the heat. I think he can, you know, but who knows? Donald Trump, we obviously know what we have

00:13:38.960 there. There's a bunch of other people who have jumped in, um, which is who knows, but I think,

00:13:44.180 you know, these polls are really, really bad. The one that I think is really notable. The part of

00:13:48.820 that ABC poll is the part where they're talking about mental acuity, mental sharpness. Yeah.

00:13:53.940 32% believe mental Joe Biden has the mental sharpness it takes to serve effectively as

00:14:02.440 president, which means 32% 68% do not. That's that's amazing. That's incredible, especially

00:14:13.120 in this era of hyper partisanship where people basically will just click the button of their

00:14:21.340 guy. You know, you don't normally see things like 32% for a candidate because, you know, 47,

00:14:28.320 48% are going to vote for the Democrat no matter who it is. So the fact that only 32% believe he can

00:14:34.820 actually do the job and a significant portion of Democrats will vote for him anyway is amazing.

00:14:40.900 But I think perhaps the most amazing part about that is, you know, look, Donald Trump is by far,

00:14:47.040 I think the leader in the Republican primary, most likely to win the primary. He is 76 years old.

00:14:55.480 He's not 60. He's not 55. He's 76. Joe Biden's 80. They're separate. They're the same era. They are

00:15:03.760 four years separated. And what it tells you is that this is not about age. Donald Trump has a 22 point

00:15:10.520 lead when it comes to the mental acuity standard. They say a 54% says Trump has the mental sharpness

00:15:18.660 needed. Only 32% of Democrats. Remember, a large portion of that 54% despise Donald Trump with every

00:15:25.040 fiber of their being. And they're still saying, yeah, obviously he's sharper than Joe Biden right

00:15:30.840 now. Obviously. This shows it's not about age. Yeah. It's about the fact that everyone has eyes and

00:15:38.240 ears cognitively declined a lot. And it's not just you. It's not just me. It's not just everybody

00:15:44.540 who listens to conservative talk. Democrats too. They notice it too. They know what we know.

00:15:49.240 You can't help but notice it now. You can't help but notice it. I mean, he's babbling. We'll play some

00:15:54.820 audio in a minute of him babbling about infrastructure, the debt limit, his poll numbers,

00:16:02.600 and he just can't get through things. He just can't do it. And I think that it's finally starting

00:16:08.740 to have an effect even on his base. We'll get to that coming up in one minute.

00:16:15.400 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today. Hopefully, Glenn will be back tomorrow. Joe Biden on MSNBC

00:16:22.040 talking about the infrastructure and so brilliantly. He's really good here.

00:16:29.440 Mr. President, there is a lot we can cover. But I want to start with maybe your most ambitious

00:16:36.560 agenda item, and that's your infrastructure plans. This is something you have wanted to do for decades,

00:16:43.240 rebuild America, bring jobs back. But it's going to take time to implement it. People haven't seen it

00:16:49.580 a year from now. What will Americans see? Well, they're going to see bridges that didn't exist before

00:16:55.540 that were shut down. You're going to see, for example, you're going to be able to get an Amtrak

00:17:00.540 and instead of going through the tunnel of Baltimore at 30 miles an hour because nothing's been done

00:17:05.360 under the Chachaspeak Bay for, under the Baltimore, the Baltimore area for 80 years, they're going to be

00:17:13.480 able to go through it 100 miles an hour. They're going to see more, they're going to see railroads

00:17:18.760 going from Syracuse all the way down to New York, upstate New York. Anyway, to the city. But I guess

00:17:27.460 what I'm saying, what I think they're going to see is movement. How can we be the most successful

00:17:34.440 economy in the world without the first-rate infrastructure?

00:17:38.100 I think that what you're going to see is people in the Baltimore River, the water that's around

00:17:53.000 Baltimore. I don't know what it's called, but something. It's called, and a lot of things

00:17:58.600 haven't been built under that water for a long time.

00:18:02.220 Really?

00:18:02.740 Yeah.

00:18:03.200 Wow, that's terrible.

00:18:04.320 You're kidding. You haven't built anything underneath the Chesapeake Bay for a while?

00:18:09.380 Huh.

00:18:10.640 I think it's time to do that again.

00:18:12.540 I should tell you, I do have a condo there.

00:18:15.220 Really? Under the Chesapeake Bay?

00:18:16.660 It is beautiful.

00:18:17.600 I'll bet that's nice.

00:18:18.260 It's beautiful.

00:18:19.100 Especially this time of year.

00:18:21.000 This time of year.

00:18:21.700 It's when the blood in the water just curdles just enough for you to kind of cut through

00:18:26.840 it and get down to that front porch, which is really nice.

00:18:31.180 It's really, I've been, I mean, this is just, this is embarrassing.

00:18:34.440 Again, people don't believe that he has the mental acuity to do this job.

00:18:38.520 They also believe his physical health is terrible.

00:18:40.620 He's 30 points behind Trump when it comes to the physical health poll.

00:18:45.320 Well, people see him walk.

00:18:47.300 And when you see him walking out to the helicopter or wherever he's going or walking up onto a

00:18:52.980 stage, he tries to do that little trot thing where he moves his arms really fast.

00:18:56.600 So it looks like he's, he's jogging.

00:18:59.780 That's exactly what he does.

00:19:01.220 Yeah.

00:19:01.380 He just moves his arms.

00:19:02.860 Like we know you're not jogging.

00:19:04.900 Okay.

00:19:06.320 That's stupid.

00:19:08.060 That's right.

00:19:09.120 And, and he's lost every time he, he gets off stage, unless Jill is there to guide him

00:19:15.620 or somebody comes up and guides him, he doesn't know where to go.

00:19:19.200 He doesn't know what to do.

00:19:20.200 He doesn't know where to turn.

00:19:21.460 And you know, they've told him over and over and over before the event, okay, Mr. President,

00:19:26.640 you're going to exit stage left and just walk down the stairs and we'll be there for you.

00:19:32.100 And he turns the wrong way every time.

00:19:34.080 I mean, you saw the card that they took the photos of and they gave the question in advance

00:19:38.620 from one of the reporters.

00:19:40.320 Yeah.

00:19:40.380 One of the other cards had, you know, a, an outline of who was there.

00:19:44.740 And the first person on the list was you, like you, like as in Joe Biden, it just said

00:19:49.760 you on the, on the card.

00:19:51.060 Like he had to remember that he was there.

00:19:53.260 Oh man.

00:19:54.120 I mean, that is not, that's not good.

00:19:56.960 No.

00:19:57.520 Um, you know, remember, uh, Richard Lewis, the comedian.

00:19:59.900 Yeah.

00:20:00.180 Um, yeah.

00:20:00.760 He was a big guy in the eighties.

00:20:02.120 He's on Curb Your Enthusiasm to this day.

00:20:04.480 Uh, but he just came out with a video where he talked about how he has Parkinson's and he

00:20:09.360 said the, the way that he discovered it was he was, his feet, he noticed his feet were

00:20:14.460 shuffling when he was walking around.

00:20:16.100 And obviously I'm not saying that Joe Biden has Parkinson's.

00:20:18.700 God forbid, I hope he does not.

00:20:19.840 But like, he has that same vibe with like this, the walking, when he walks from the,

00:20:27.260 you know, uh, Marine one to, to the press, he shuffles, he shuffles.

00:20:32.200 He, it's not, I mean, it looks, it looks like there's a real problem there.

00:20:37.300 It does.

00:20:37.760 And I am not the only one who's noticing this.

00:20:40.580 You're not hateful for noticing it.

00:20:42.900 It does not mean that you dislike older people.

00:20:45.180 If you happen to notice it, it's fair for a citizen of a country to expect their leader

00:20:50.500 to be coherent.

00:20:51.600 That is a fair request.

00:20:53.700 It's a fair standard.

00:20:55.300 It's one that we should expect our leaders to hit.

00:20:57.120 You don't think you're being a little too picky there?

00:20:58.600 No.

00:20:58.880 I know.

00:20:59.660 Okay.

00:21:00.220 No.

00:21:00.700 I mean, obviously in California, you have, uh, Dianne Feinstein who can't even make it 1.00

00:21:05.760 to work anymore.

00:21:06.600 Right.

00:21:07.180 Uh, you have other.

00:21:08.820 It's sad.

00:21:09.120 It's just really sad.

00:21:10.220 The whole situation is that John Fetterman, who's not old, obviously has, is completely

00:21:14.840 incompetent to do this job.

00:21:16.180 The Democrats are built on people that have absolutely no ability to do their jobs.

00:21:19.540 And when they do them, it's worse.

00:21:21.460 I'd rather have people who just go stay at home.

00:21:24.240 The best Senator in the Democratic side right now is Dianne Feinstein. 1.00

00:21:28.440 Yeah.

00:21:28.720 Cause she doesn't go up and she doesn't screw anything up.

00:21:31.260 She just stays home. 1.00

00:21:32.580 I hope she stays in office for a hundred years. 0.99

00:23:10.660 888-727-BECK.

00:23:12.780 We were sharing some of the Joe Biden interview on MSNBC the other day, and he spoke about

00:23:21.980 the debt limit, which was brilliant, other than the fact that just about every word out

00:23:28.080 of his mouth was a complete lie.

00:23:30.660 Other than that, it was really good.

00:23:32.140 Is that important when you talk about the debt limit?

00:23:33.820 Do you have to say things that are true?

00:23:35.220 Well, you should.

00:23:36.060 Okay.

00:23:36.300 I don't know that you have to, but I'd prefer it, but I'm picky like that.

00:23:40.840 So this is just a personal preference issue.

00:23:42.940 Basically, yes.

00:23:44.300 And here's how that went.

00:23:45.800 You have a very strong economic recovery story to tell.

00:23:50.060 Pause it for just a second if you can.

00:23:51.380 Hold on.

00:23:52.120 What?

00:23:52.620 You have a very strong economic recovery story to tell.

00:23:57.580 Now, what planet are we discussing?

00:24:01.200 This is for Venus.

00:24:02.260 Venus.

00:24:02.820 Yeah, that's true.

00:24:03.480 Venus was in a really, they had a really tough time.

00:24:05.500 COVID hit them hard.

00:24:06.640 It did.

00:24:07.340 It killed everybody there.

00:24:08.560 Yep.

00:24:08.900 They're all gone now.

00:24:10.360 Every single Venetian is dead.

00:24:13.880 Every one of them.

00:24:14.680 Oh, really?

00:24:14.960 Yeah, all of them.

00:24:15.600 Is that what they're called?

00:24:16.320 Yeah, Venetians. 0.60

00:24:16.940 Venetians.

00:24:17.380 Yeah.

00:24:18.880 So, economic recovery, what are you talking about?

00:24:23.160 We've got rampant inflation.

00:24:24.980 We've got, I guess, the employment numbers have been okay, if you're not a black person,

00:24:31.080 because those numbers are really low.

00:24:33.400 Record lows, I believe.

00:24:35.500 And he's about to claim that they're incredibly high.

00:24:38.680 Well, so do you have to say, is the difference between low and high important when you're

00:24:43.500 talking?

00:24:44.120 Somewhat.

00:24:44.640 I'd say there's...

00:24:45.160 As a linguist, Pat.

00:24:46.280 Yeah.

00:24:46.700 Is that something that is important?

00:24:48.340 I'm going to say yes.

00:24:49.160 Okay.

00:24:49.660 Yeah.

00:24:50.040 All right.

00:24:50.440 There's more.

00:24:51.560 However, in less than four weeks, the government's going to run out of money.

00:24:56.560 And so many of these economic wins could fall by the wayside.

00:24:59.920 What?

00:25:00.120 As president, what are you going to do to help us avoid default?

00:25:05.180 Look.

00:25:05.800 Look.

00:25:06.640 Not a single solitary Congress has ever reneged on a debt.

00:25:10.260 The debt is not a debt that I accumulated.

00:25:12.460 The debt is not a debt that occurred over the last several years.

00:25:15.720 It's 200 years, the debt.

00:25:17.740 200 years.

00:25:18.660 And the idea that we wouldn't pay our debt is just bizarre.

00:25:24.040 It's estimated that if we didn't pay the debt, we'd lose 750,000 jobs.

00:25:28.240 We'd have a recession.

00:25:29.200 It would be a disaster.

00:25:30.540 Pause it again for a second.

00:25:31.840 I can't.

00:25:32.100 You've got to go through this piece by piece because the lies...

00:25:35.960 Nobody is suggesting we should renege on our debt.

00:25:39.860 No.

00:25:40.340 Who is saying, yeah, we need to default on our debt?

00:25:43.500 And even if they did that, there are certain things that must be done even then.

00:25:48.520 Even if they did decide, yeah, we're going to go into default here, they still have to pay Social Security and Medicaid payments and payments interest on loans and all of those things.

00:26:00.400 Constitutionally, they still have to do some things.

00:26:03.340 Yeah.

00:26:03.900 I mean, they have to.

00:26:04.680 My understanding, kind of the way this is set up, is it's basically the last thing.

00:26:10.200 Right?

00:26:10.340 They can't.

00:26:11.220 They can't.

00:26:12.000 Right.

00:26:12.680 There is...

00:26:13.500 The debt cannot be questioned.

00:26:15.900 Essential things have to still happen.

00:26:18.360 Essential things have to happen.

00:26:19.820 All of the bells and whistles would stop.

00:26:22.440 But tons of other things would stop, too, before we got to defaulting on the debt.

00:26:27.160 I mean, that's just...

00:26:28.020 Chances of that happening are...

00:26:29.820 It's almost zero.

00:26:30.540 Basically zero.

00:26:31.360 I mean, you should not be worried about it.

00:26:32.620 It should not be something that anyone is worried about.

00:26:36.100 And he's acting as if Republicans are suggesting it.

00:26:39.020 Right.

00:26:39.320 You know what we should do is default on the debt.

00:26:41.240 Right.

00:26:41.520 This is straight out policy.

00:26:42.540 It's not even what they are doing, which, of course, is just trying to negotiate for the most minor requests to keep this debt slightly less terrible.

00:26:54.040 No one...

00:26:54.600 We should point out, there are levels of this.

00:26:56.500 No one is suggesting we live within our means.

00:27:00.220 The Republicans aren't even suggesting that.

00:27:01.720 No one is suggesting it.

00:27:03.680 No, literally no one is suggesting we cap spending where it is.

00:27:09.240 No one is suggesting it.

00:27:11.080 Okay.

00:27:11.380 As far as the official proposals, I'm suggesting it, but no one real is suggesting it.

00:27:16.960 What the Republicans are suggesting is a moderate increase in our spending every year.

00:27:22.600 Not even a decrease.

00:27:24.020 Not a decrease.

00:27:25.160 Yeah.

00:27:25.360 Not a hold the line.

00:27:27.420 Not a we must spend less than we take in.

00:27:29.920 None of those things that you would do at your house.

00:27:32.880 None of those proposals are even being floated by the right wing party.

00:27:37.860 None of them are even being considered.

00:27:41.240 What they're asking for is, hey, what do you think that maybe we don't spend as much as planned going forward?

00:27:51.880 Which is, of course, an increase of several percent per year.

00:27:56.380 And they're saying like one percent per year.

00:27:59.160 Wow.

00:28:00.020 Not a decrease of one percent.

00:28:01.780 No.

00:28:02.260 An increase.

00:28:02.800 An increase.

00:28:03.200 An increase.

00:28:03.660 A one percent.

00:28:04.840 This is a very rational, reasonable proposal.

00:28:08.480 And by the way, we should also note one that they have no expectation of actually passing.

00:28:13.140 Yeah.

00:28:13.360 Which is what he's about to say.

00:28:16.120 And he calls it ridiculous.

00:28:17.480 And the idea is someone for the first time is saying, unless you pass this ridiculous budget I have, which is the way I would characterize what the Republican MAGA budget is.

00:28:30.720 Unless you pass this budget, we're not going to increase the debt limit and we're going to go bankrupt.

00:28:37.080 We're going to.

00:28:37.820 The United States of America is going to renege for the first time.

00:28:40.760 No.

00:28:41.140 Not what they're saying.

00:28:41.920 No.

00:28:42.520 Lies. 0.99

00:28:42.860 And you just can't.

00:28:43.880 No one's ever tied them together before.

00:28:46.340 I've said to the Republican leader, here's the deal.

00:28:50.900 Take the debt limit.

00:28:52.340 Pass it like you did four, three times when Trump was president and he increased the whole national debt for 200 years by 40 percent.

00:29:02.320 Republicans would argue, though, that Donald Trump, at the very least, they would say, played ball.

00:29:08.740 You're not willing to play ball.

00:29:10.520 Play ball.

00:29:11.840 Play ball.

00:29:13.880 Could there be?

00:29:14.920 Stop for a second.

00:29:15.760 Could there be an interview where someone is more leaning into what she wants the answers to be?

00:29:23.480 No.

00:29:23.600 She's just like, she actually almost laughs at her own question there.

00:29:28.180 If you see her facial expressions, if you happen to be watching on Blaze TV, you'd see them.

00:29:32.060 But if you're listening on radio, she's like almost smirking.

00:29:36.640 She's like almost giggling at her own question.

00:29:39.120 Look, I know this is ridiculous, but I have to say it.

00:29:41.340 It's like that type of vibe.

00:29:42.700 And of course, you know, he because it's not a real question.

00:29:45.780 He's just going to say whatever he wants to say to get himself out of it.

00:29:50.380 It's a look.

00:29:51.480 Look, the debt ceiling was created for a reason.

00:29:54.060 Is it the best?

00:29:55.040 Look, should you just live within your means?

00:29:56.980 Yes.

00:29:57.840 Should you just have a balanced budget?

00:29:59.260 Yeah.

00:29:59.760 Should we have a budget at all?

00:30:01.660 Yeah.

00:30:02.140 Yeah.

00:30:02.620 That's another good one.

00:30:03.640 That's another good idea.

00:30:04.460 How long has it been since we had a budget?

00:30:05.380 Right.

00:30:06.720 And if you're going to have a debt ceiling, why was it created?

00:30:09.440 It was created for moments like this.

00:30:11.680 It was not created like maybe a debt ceiling should be created, right?

00:30:16.780 Which is, hey, we can't go above this number.

00:30:19.900 That would be crazy.

00:30:20.600 Let's set a big number.

00:30:21.960 Let's never go near that.

00:30:23.660 Let's never get over a trillion dollars.

00:30:25.320 That would be nuts.

00:30:26.560 Let's make sure we stay away from that.

00:30:28.200 That might be a debt ceiling. 0.63

00:30:29.600 This is a little more like the NBA salary cap where everyone seems to be able to fit everything

00:30:33.820 in.

00:30:34.060 You know what I mean?

00:30:34.620 And so this situation here where Biden, this new version of the debt ceiling is just, let's

00:30:43.520 just check on ourselves a little bit.

00:30:45.960 You know, when we hit this number, let's examine what's going on for a second.

00:30:51.380 That's really it.

00:30:53.320 That's really it.

00:30:54.160 And even that is insane to the Democrats to even consider thinking about addressing

00:31:00.160 why we keep bumping into this debt ceiling every few months.

00:31:03.480 And keep raising it.

00:31:04.820 And keep raising it.

00:31:06.240 How do you keep raising a ceiling?

00:31:09.200 I mean, a ceiling is a ceiling.

00:31:10.660 It's supposed to stop you.

00:31:11.820 That is the point.

00:31:12.520 At the point.

00:31:13.300 And at the point where you hit that ceiling, you don't then just bust through the ceiling,

00:31:19.240 which we do every single time.

00:31:23.320 Republicans and Democrats alike.

00:31:25.000 They just bust through it every single time.

00:31:28.000 All right.

00:31:28.220 He had more.

00:31:29.220 He ballooned the debt.

00:31:31.320 He created unemployment.

00:31:32.920 Look, when I came to office, we had incredibly high unemployment.

00:31:36.900 We're in a situation where we were had very little movement on anything going on.

00:31:43.260 Wait, what?

00:31:44.240 Look at the employment right now.

00:31:46.240 I mean, wait a minute.

00:31:47.440 There's just today.

00:31:48.880 Wait, this is the typical thing that Democrats have tried to do, where they just basically

00:31:53.700 take the depths of COVID and act like the reason that they got turned around was because

00:31:58.700 of them.

00:31:59.120 Yes.

00:31:59.580 Despite the fact, I mean, in all the exceptions we could obviously note, it's such a dumb

00:32:03.820 argument.

00:32:04.360 We don't even need to outline how stupid it is.

00:32:06.560 I mean, it really is that ridiculous.

00:32:08.940 But to say that nothing was going on, we're spending like $5 trillion.

00:32:13.880 What do you mean nothing was going on?

00:32:15.580 All we were doing was sending money and printing it and sending it out the door to people.

00:32:19.560 We spent $5 trillion in that era with both Republicans and Democrats on board for it, we

00:32:24.800 should note.

00:32:25.740 Now, of course, he kept going after the COVID emergency was over and kept spending, which

00:32:30.120 is why we got all this inflation.

00:32:32.100 But I doubt that's part of his analysis here.

00:32:34.740 Yeah, and then he lumps in the, and he cut the deficit by $1.7 trillion.

00:32:41.580 Well, that just ended the COVID spending.

00:32:45.680 Right.

00:32:46.260 That's exactly right.

00:32:47.900 And he just was given the vaunted, now, as you know, the Washington Post, not exactly

00:32:51.880 a right-wing publication, and they do their fact-checking and they give you the Pinocchios.

00:32:57.240 They just gave him the very rare bottomless Pinocchio, literally gave him a bottomless Pinocchio

00:33:03.380 because he's said this lie so many times.

00:33:06.760 They refuse to continually keep fact-checking it because he just keeps saying it, even though

00:33:11.060 everyone knows it's not true.

00:33:12.360 The bottomless Pinocchio from the Washington Post for this claim.

00:33:16.120 And he keeps saying it again.

00:33:17.600 I'm sure that the pushback is coming.

00:33:19.820 I can't wait.

00:33:20.300 Oh, sure.

00:33:20.980 Yeah.

00:33:21.860 There's more.

00:33:22.300 There's just today, 250,000 new jobs, highest participation in 75 years of women in the 0.92

00:33:30.660 job market, lowest unemployment rate for African Americans.

00:33:34.100 Things are moving.

00:33:35.460 As I said, you have a very strong economic recovery story.

00:33:38.760 Why?

00:33:39.120 But this is a very volatile Congress.

00:33:41.760 There are members of Congress that might be okay with us defaulting.

00:33:45.640 I don't think it could hurt you more politically.

00:33:49.160 Given that, are you prepared to invoke the 14th Amendment and blow through the debt ceiling?

00:33:54.520 I've not gotten there yet.

00:33:56.040 And here's the deal.

00:33:57.260 Here's the deal.

00:33:57.940 I think that, first of all, this is not your father's Republican Party.

00:34:03.020 This is a different...

00:34:03.700 Oh, my gosh.

00:34:04.360 No, sir.

00:34:04.900 A different...

00:34:05.720 No, sir.

00:34:06.480 No.

00:34:06.740 And I think that we have to make it clear to the American people that I am prepared to

00:34:13.140 negotiate in detail with their budget.

00:34:15.980 How much are you going to spend?

00:34:17.360 How much are you going to tax?

00:34:18.400 Where can we cut?

00:34:19.280 For example, in the first two years of my administration, I cut the debt by $1.7 trillion.

00:34:25.800 There it is.

00:34:26.560 There it is.

00:34:26.760 1.7 trillion anybody's ever done in history.

00:34:29.280 Oh, my God.

00:34:29.680 Their budget goes in.

00:34:32.200 There's no possible they can pass their budget.

00:34:35.580 Zero.

00:34:36.320 Really?

00:34:36.560 Zero possibility.

00:34:37.760 They cut...

00:34:38.640 They cut 200,000...

00:34:40.500 Anyway.

00:34:41.140 200,000?

00:34:41.840 I shouldn't get going on.

00:34:43.360 Because you don't know what you're talking about.

00:34:45.280 That's his way of getting out where he's going.

00:34:46.860 He doesn't know what he's talking about.

00:34:47.600 They cut 200,000.

00:34:49.480 No, two...

00:34:51.020 Because he...

00:34:51.740 Embarrassing.

00:34:52.680 He doesn't know the number at all.

00:34:54.920 He can't keep numbers in his head.

00:34:56.420 He's the worst.

00:34:57.160 Let me give you some numbers if you'd like.

00:34:58.840 All right.

00:34:59.320 Biden says he's cut it $1.7 trillion.

00:35:02.600 He claims it's a record.

00:35:03.620 The Congressional Budget Office, the official scorekeeper in February 2021, had already estimated the budget deficit would fall dramatically in 2021 and 2022 because emergency pandemic spending would lapse.

00:35:13.980 The combined 2021 and 2022 budget deficits were projected by the CBO to be $3.31 trillion.

00:35:21.820 In November, the CBO said the combined deficits were, in fact, $4.15 trillion.

00:35:26.860 What happened?

00:35:27.460 Biden enacted additional pandemic relief funds and other new policies, resulting in more modest decline in the deficit.

00:35:34.840 Okay?

00:35:35.020 It was projected to be much more than $1.7 trillion before he got into office.

00:35:40.240 Wow.

00:35:41.240 For instance, the deficit was projected to be about $1 trillion in 2022, and it turned out to be $1.375 trillion.

00:35:48.700 So he added $375 billion.

00:35:50.800 It was supposed to decline $875 billion in 2021, but it was only $360 billion.

00:35:58.560 So half a trillion dollars worse than projected.

00:36:02.020 He's on TV bragging about it over and over again.

00:36:05.220 No pushback from the person who was interviewing him.

00:36:08.460 No.

00:36:08.940 In fact, she's playing along.

00:36:10.740 Like, oh, I know you've done such a great job on the economic recovery.

00:36:14.660 It's such a, you've got so many wins in the economy.

00:36:17.280 What?

00:36:18.240 What wins does he have?

00:36:20.520 Incredible.

00:36:21.340 Incredible.

00:36:21.880 888-727-BECK.

00:36:26.440 All right, your credit card debt is getting more expensive all the time.

00:36:29.980 And if you're only able to make the minimum payment each month, it can be overwhelming trying to find a way out of debt.

00:36:35.120 It's going to take years because most months you're not even touching the principal balance.

00:36:39.200 Well, if you own a home, there's a better way.

00:36:41.800 Tapping into your home's equity to pay off high interest debt can make a lot of sense.

00:36:45.780 And it can save you a ton of money, both in the short and long term.

00:36:49.380 And to help set that up, we love recommending American Financing.

00:37:35.160 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:37:36.380 When was the last time you checked the legal title to your home?

00:37:51.480 And by, you know, checked, I mean, made sure it's still in your name and not the name of some criminal.

00:37:55.620 It's called home title, excuse me, home title theft.

00:37:58.340 And it is a nightmare for you and for everyone around you if it hits you.

00:38:02.480 So our home's title are, they're all online now.

00:38:05.300 And so a criminal can access and forge your signature.

00:38:08.180 It's a race against time, you know, to stop him or her, I will say.

00:38:12.560 Sometimes there's female criminals too. 1.00

00:38:14.640 But they take out loans against your home.

00:38:16.620 They can sell it out from underneath you.

00:38:17.840 They can make it so you don't have a home anymore.

00:38:20.500 When's the last time you checked your home's title?

00:38:21.820 I'm guessing it's never.

00:38:23.100 Maybe like when I bought the house.

00:38:24.780 That's not going to work in this environment.

00:38:26.680 Home title lock demonstrated to me how online criminals can get you.

00:38:29.360 In minutes, they found the title to my home and forged my signature, slating me for all sorts of financial collapse.

00:38:37.760 I didn't want that to happen.

00:38:38.720 Luckily, they're friendly and they weren't actually stealing my home.

00:38:41.860 They're just showing me how easy it was to be stolen.

00:38:43.980 Home title lock helps shut this kind of thing down. 0.94

00:38:46.180 It's what they do and they do it better than anyone.

00:38:48.420 This is not the kind of thing you want to find out about after the damage is done.

00:38:51.360 So be proactive and stop the crime before it happens.

00:39:14.760 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today.

00:39:16.620 Hopefully, Glenn returns tomorrow.

00:39:18.920 The day after tomorrow is a big day because that's when Title 42 ends.

00:39:26.080 And we're expecting probably a little more business at the southern border than, well, we've ever probably received in the history of this nation.

00:39:38.320 There are caravans on the way.

00:39:40.840 There are people lining up.

00:39:43.420 There are tens of thousands already in El Paso.

00:39:48.200 Have you seen the scenes from El Paso, Texas?

00:39:51.060 It's incredible.

00:39:51.800 And what's going on there?

00:39:52.740 The fact that it's an American city is one of the most...

00:39:55.440 It's outrageous.

00:39:56.960 It's repulsive.

00:39:58.300 I mean, it's something you'd expect from a third world country. 1.00

00:40:01.260 And here we are looking at this happening in not only our country, but the state we're sitting in.

00:40:06.640 The fact that this is going on here in Texas or anywhere in America is disgraceful.

00:40:11.700 And they've declared a state of emergency in El Paso.

00:40:17.160 That's how bad it is.

00:40:18.580 They just, I mean, I don't know how their services aren't completely overwhelmed.

00:40:23.320 Well, I think they are.

00:40:24.340 I think they're completely overwhelmed by the deluge of illegals who have crossed the border and are now just camped out. 0.52

00:40:32.100 It's outrageous.

00:40:33.440 Title 42 is still in place.

00:40:35.340 That's the key thing here.

00:40:36.740 Right.

00:40:37.000 This hasn't even happened yet.

00:40:38.760 Yeah.

00:40:39.080 Now, I will say, I was listening to a little of the New York Times podcast today.

00:40:43.320 And I do this to torture myself every morning.

00:40:45.940 I'm a masochist.

00:40:46.980 And I want to make sure I feel real pain every day.

00:40:50.500 And I do this...

00:40:51.140 It's a good way to do it.

00:40:51.660 It's a good...

00:40:52.020 It's a very good way to do it.

00:40:53.220 And they said, will it be easier or harder for you to get into the United States after Title 42 goes down?

00:41:00.460 And guess what their answer was?

00:41:03.460 Harder.

00:41:03.860 Harder.

00:41:04.300 Harder.

00:41:04.820 Oh, it's going to be so hard once Title 42 goes down.

00:41:08.220 Now, of course, then they went to explain basically 9 million exceptions to whatever pitch they were trying to give that would make any person who comes to the border easily able to cross it.

00:41:19.760 But they want you to know it's going to be a lot harder.

00:41:22.760 I can't wait for this.

00:41:23.540 A lot harder.

00:41:23.940 Because, you know, they've been saying they've got a year to prep for this.

00:41:26.280 They've had plenty of time to put the plan in.

00:41:29.360 Let's see how this goes this week.

00:41:30.540 It's going to be fascinating to watch.

00:41:32.020 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:35.620 We are here.

00:41:36.540 It's spring.

00:41:37.560 It's the delightful time of year when you go from freezing all the time to boiling alive in your own sweat.

00:41:45.240 At least in Texas, that's where we are.

00:41:47.000 We hit 90-something the other day.

00:41:49.900 And you remember what it's like down here in the summer.

00:41:53.400 If you want to be comfortable, you need Tommy John underwear.

00:41:56.240 When you wear Tommy John, it's so much cooler.

00:41:58.540 It makes everything better.

00:41:59.820 And Tommy John underwear is lightweight, breathable, has four times the stretch of competing brands.

00:42:04.920 They've got dozens of comfort innovations.

00:42:07.940 And Tommy John keeps you looking and feeling cool all season long.

00:42:10.820 From lounging at home to that outdoor spring and summertime fun.

00:42:14.560 This is why Tommy John doesn't have customers.

00:42:16.060 They have fanatics.

00:42:17.040 They've sold over 17 million pairs because people absolutely love their underwear and their loungewear.

00:42:21.980 Their loungewear is underrated.

00:42:23.580 It's just fantastic.

00:42:24.940 Tommy John's best pair you'll ever wear.

00:43:03.380 We've got to stand together.

00:43:07.880 It's the course of life.

00:43:09.440 Stand up, stand, hold the line.

00:43:16.520 It's a new day, I'm trying to rise.

00:43:22.480 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:43:30.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:36.260 Good news.

00:43:39.440 Got a solution to the border situation.

00:43:43.780 This is exciting.

00:43:45.340 Since Title 42 ends on Thursday, day after tomorrow, this is very timely information.

00:43:50.860 We'll share it with you.

00:43:51.740 60 seconds for a minute.

00:43:56.080 Most things that happen to your car, you know, that have to be fixed aren't covered by insurance.

00:44:01.940 And they're covered maybe by your warranty if you happen to have one.

00:44:04.820 But when your warranty runs out and something goes wrong, it's usually a disaster.

00:44:10.440 Because you're about to be out a lot of money.

00:44:13.080 So what do you need to do?

00:44:14.160 How do you fix this?

00:44:15.520 Well, you need CarShield.

00:45:05.940 All right, so just in time, and again, they've had a year to plan for this.

00:45:13.600 They've known for a year this was going to happen, that Title 42 would end.

00:45:18.660 And so they've been planning it for a long time and they came up with the perfect solution here to fix the whole border crisis, really.

00:45:25.280 I have to admit, and I'm a little embarrassed now to say this, but I was a bit skeptical they had a plan.

00:45:30.520 I was too.

00:45:31.500 It didn't seem like they had any idea what they were going to do here.

00:45:34.760 Right.

00:45:35.000 And I was worried that when Title 42 comes down, that we'd have this huge flow of migrants over the border and it would be a real disaster. 1.00

00:45:44.060 Breathe easy.

00:45:45.700 Okay, everybody.

00:45:47.000 This is new from Bill Malugan.

00:45:48.900 He's from Fox News and he does a great job covering the border.

00:45:53.520 He says, per multiple Border Patrol sources, last night, Border Patrol leadership made the decision to authorize all Border Patrol sectors to begin.

00:46:03.580 And before I give you the big reveal here, one of the big concerns was, they have these facilities, they're already packed with these new people about to come over the border.

00:46:13.740 What do they do with these new people?

00:46:15.120 They'll be overflowing.

00:46:16.000 They'll be overflowing.

00:46:16.760 With people.

00:46:17.260 Right.

00:46:17.560 And you have to come up with a solution to that problem.

00:46:20.040 Okay.

00:46:20.260 Do you have more space?

00:46:21.300 Do you ship them to other places?

00:46:23.100 What do you do?

00:46:23.640 So, again, this is from Border Patrol leadership.

00:46:28.000 They've made the decision to authorize all Border Patrol sectors to begin safe street releases.

00:46:34.800 Safe?

00:46:35.420 Safe street releases.

00:46:37.740 Now, I don't know about you, Pat.

00:46:38.960 I would be against dangerous street releases.

00:46:41.540 I would, too.

00:46:42.140 I don't want that.

00:46:42.600 Like, if you're releasing illegals into oncoming traffic. 0.93

00:46:45.400 Right.

00:46:45.920 That would be bad.

00:46:46.460 Let's say you've got a helicopter, you put migrants in it, and you drop them from 50 feet down to the highway. 1.00

00:46:51.260 Onto a freeway.

00:46:51.700 I would be very, very against that.

00:46:53.280 Yeah, I'm not for that.

00:46:54.320 That's not a good policy.

00:46:55.200 That's not what's happening here.

00:46:56.700 Okay.

00:46:56.900 That's not what's happening here.

00:46:58.320 All right.

00:46:58.380 What's happening here are safe street releases.

00:47:02.700 Good.

00:47:02.900 These are releases to the street that are safe.

00:47:06.980 Where there's no oncoming traffic.

00:47:09.360 No!

00:47:09.920 None.

00:47:10.000 It's not in the middle of a road.

00:47:11.760 Okay.

00:47:12.020 That's not what they're talking about.

00:47:13.220 So, essentially, they might put you on a sidewalk, right, where it's safer than on the street itself.

00:47:19.920 Well, this, they, he outlines what this means.

00:47:22.700 This means in coming days, we will likely begin to see mass releases of migrants at bus stops.

00:47:29.080 Bus stops?

00:47:29.800 Bus stops, for example.

00:47:31.400 All right.

00:47:31.840 Gas stations.

00:47:33.200 Uh-huh.

00:47:33.540 So, if you haven't worked in a gas station or own a gas station, you're going to get some new customers.

00:47:36.880 They won't have any money, but they'll be there to potentially help your, you know, if you needed a border of people around your gas station to block other customers because you thought you had too many customers for some reason, maybe this would be helpful.

00:47:51.820 Also, supermarkets.

00:47:53.420 And, again, this is happening in communities across the border as the legal crossings continue to surge to record highs ahead of the Title 42 drop in two days.

00:48:05.540 Well, I will say, it's happening a lot in El Paso right now.

00:48:09.840 There are, there are illegals all around grocery stores, gas stations, parking lots, bus stations.

00:48:19.940 They're everywhere.

00:48:20.580 Churches.

00:48:21.460 Churches.

00:48:21.940 They're often around churches, and one of the interesting things about this, I guess there's a little quirk, a little cutout in law, because, as you know, this government really respects religious liberty.

00:48:33.340 Big time.

00:48:33.880 I don't know if you knew that.

00:48:34.720 Oh, of course.

00:48:35.340 Okay.

00:48:35.860 Everybody knows that.

00:48:37.100 Hugely protective of religious liberty.

00:48:39.220 So, what happens is migrants gather around churches, and they stay outside on the sidewalk right by the church. 0.76

00:48:48.660 And then, if someone comes by, a border patrol or a police officer, to try to bring them in, they jump over the fence, and then they stand on church property.

00:48:58.140 And, therefore, since they're at a, quote, house of worship, they can't be brought in.

00:49:03.260 Oh, they've got sanctuary.

00:49:04.360 They've got sanctuary in the sanctuary.

00:49:06.080 Actually, outside the sanctuary.

00:49:06.920 It's like the hunchback of Notre Dame.

00:49:07.780 Pretty much.

00:49:08.780 It's essentially the same story.

00:49:10.380 Yeah.

00:49:10.620 So, this is great.

00:49:13.040 Safe street releases.

00:49:14.500 Uh-huh.

00:49:14.960 And sanctuary.

00:49:16.240 Good.

00:49:16.560 Not sanctuary cities, but just, like, you're near a sanctuary, so you can't be brought in.

00:49:21.280 Mm-hmm.

00:49:21.760 And this is only going to be an issue if they run out of space, which they already are, before Title 42 even goes down.

00:49:29.540 And there's hundreds of thousands of people across the border waiting to come in, in two days.

00:49:33.860 Some estimates have it up to 750,000.

00:49:38.660 750,000.

00:49:40.640 All at once.

00:49:41.640 We're already setting records.

00:49:44.000 There was a, there was, now, look, there are peaks.

00:49:46.760 There are peaks and valleys to immigration.

00:49:48.340 We know that.

00:49:48.900 Mm-hmm.

00:49:49.400 In fact, there was a big peak in Trump's, one of his last years in office, in 2019.

00:49:55.460 There was, you know, normally Trump would be around, I'm just eyeballing this graph here,

00:50:00.540 you know, 25,000 to 30,000 per month, monthly apprehensions at the border.

00:50:07.520 25,000 to 30,000, which is a lot.

00:50:09.540 Mm-hmm.

00:50:09.800 Okay?

00:50:10.360 However, it peaked much higher than that.

00:50:13.660 In the, let's say, spring of 2019, that number hit, rose all the way up to about 100,000.

00:50:21.360 100,000, Pat.

00:50:22.680 Yeah, that's a lot.

00:50:23.400 In one month, about 130,000.

00:50:26.420 That's a lot.

00:50:27.000 And then it came back down to the normal levels of about 20, you know, 30 or 40,000 down to 20,000.

00:50:34.840 That's where it basically hit and bottomed out in the COVID era, rose up to normal levels again at the end of Trump's time.

00:50:42.780 Well, in month one of Joe Biden, he was at about 75,000.

00:50:49.480 And then month two, it was about 105,000.

00:50:52.940 And then month three, if you remember the peak being 130,000 from the Trump era, month three of Joe Biden was 175,000.

00:51:01.420 And you think, wow, that's because it only, that only happened in one month of Donald Trump that he hit 130,000 apprehensions.

00:51:07.880 And so far, the 175 is only one month of Joe Biden.

00:51:11.680 That's true.

00:51:12.360 That's true.

00:51:12.840 And if I stop telling this story right now, that will still be the case.

00:51:16.240 It sounds pretty good for Joe Biden.

00:51:17.680 For Joe Biden.

00:51:18.320 No, because month, let's see, four was 180,000.

00:51:23.980 Month five was another 180,000.

00:51:27.220 Month six was 190,000.

00:51:29.940 Month seven was 215,000.

00:51:33.400 Month eight, 210,000.

00:51:36.180 So an improvement from the previous month.

00:51:37.880 Oh, good job.

00:51:38.500 Well, there you go.

00:51:39.140 Yeah, there we go.

00:51:39.880 Good job, Joe Biden.

00:51:41.600 Now, then it dropped down, actually, a little bit and bottomed out.

00:51:46.060 Remember, the bottoming out for Trump was about 20,000.

00:51:48.620 The bottoming out for Biden was 160,000.

00:51:52.700 Okay.

00:51:53.260 Then it continued to rise.

00:51:54.520 So the bottom was higher than the highest level for Trump.

00:51:59.960 Yeah.

00:52:00.100 Biden has only been as low as 160,000 since this ramp up happened one time, where Trump

00:52:07.960 had only been as high as 130,000 one time.

00:52:11.200 So they're pretty much equal, of equal footing.

00:52:14.380 Then, by the way, it went up again.

00:52:16.140 Then, I should point out, in early 2022, it hit 230,000, and then 240,000, and then 245,000.

00:52:27.560 But then, after that, dropped back down to 220.

00:52:30.660 Oh, well, they've taken care of it.

00:52:32.540 Again, wow.

00:52:33.260 Great job.

00:52:33.840 That's a lot like the gas prices.

00:52:34.900 Right.

00:52:35.200 It's kind of like the gas prices.

00:52:35.560 You know, it went up to like $5 a gallon, and then they came way down.

00:52:39.800 It's like $4 a gallon.

00:52:41.000 To like $4 a gallon.

00:52:41.900 And now, we're all just sitting here going, now, that's normal.

00:52:44.420 Yeah, that's fine.

00:52:45.620 I should point out, by the way, it went up again.

00:52:48.100 It went up, you know, when it bottomed out at 210,000 or so, then it went back up to 230,

00:52:55.440 235, 235, then 255, which was actually the peak.

00:53:01.460 And it's now settled in only at like 190,000.

00:53:06.240 Again, 60,000 worse than the worst month of Trump that only happened once.

00:53:12.680 But they inherited a terrible problem on the border, and that's why the border's a mess.

00:53:18.400 Actually, it did not.

00:53:20.440 The border, well, look, the border, if we were to take Biden out of this chart, we would look

00:53:26.300 at Trump's performance on the border and say, you know, we wish we did better than that.

00:53:31.460 Right?

00:53:31.820 Yes.

00:53:32.120 Because, look, I'm not even comfortable with 30,000 a month.

00:53:35.940 That's not a lot.

00:53:37.060 That's still a lot.

00:53:38.080 But it's, you know, in comparison to other presidents, it's not terrible.

00:53:43.140 And certainly, in comparison to Joe Biden, it's not terrible.

00:53:46.160 You know, I mean, for a guy who sat here and has told us over and over again, this crisis

00:53:50.920 does not exist, here we are.

00:53:54.180 We're in the middle of it.

00:53:55.060 And it's about to get much worse.

00:53:56.600 I don't know that people realize what we're about to be seeing, Pat.

00:53:59.360 I mean, you said 750,000?

00:54:02.360 By some estimates, that's what they expect.

00:54:05.020 That's incredible.

00:54:06.160 Yeah.

00:54:06.500 And what do we do?

00:54:07.480 I mean, we are going to be...

00:54:08.340 I don't know.

00:54:08.900 How many border agents do we have?

00:54:10.240 20,000?

00:54:11.100 Something like that, yeah.

00:54:13.040 I mean, that'll just overwhelm the system. 0.92

00:54:15.720 You just can't handle that kind of invasion is what it would be at that point.

00:54:22.020 I mean, what can you call it other than an invasion of 750,000 people?

00:54:28.800 It's like, okay, well, none of them are armed, so it's not an invasion.

00:54:33.160 That makes it almost worse, because if it were armed, you'd be fighting back against it.

00:54:38.120 We're not fighting back.

00:54:39.940 We're not doing anything about it.

00:54:41.860 Yeah.

00:54:42.380 The new plan, by the way, other than the Safe Street release program, which is going to be great,

00:54:47.340 I was listening to this amazing podcast from the New York Times that I mentioned earlier,

00:54:55.360 and they were going through this program that they supposedly put in, and they've said multiple

00:54:59.420 times that they've had a year to plan for this.

00:55:02.340 This is not going to be as bad as everyone was expecting.

00:55:04.200 They've been able to plan, which is great, you know?

00:55:07.380 Then they went through their plan, and their plan is you can fly here instead of coming

00:55:13.500 into the border, because that will lower the border, you know, confusion and congestion.

00:55:25.420 It will lower that, because you're flying to, let's say, you know, Cincinnati.

00:55:30.600 You've flown into Cincinnati, or you've flown into Miami.

00:55:33.820 And I can do that without papers?

00:55:35.400 Well, you have to know somebody here.

00:55:38.060 That's a big part of it.

00:55:39.240 You have to know somebody here.

00:55:40.780 So you can fly in.

00:55:41.460 Not only anybody in Mexico, Central and South America knows anybody here.

00:55:45.560 What are the odds?

00:55:46.180 And of course, they don't even have to be legal here.

00:55:48.180 They just have to be here.

00:55:49.160 They know somebody.

00:55:49.760 So you come here, you can fly in instead of coming to the border.

00:55:52.320 That's one of the reasons, ways you can do it.

00:55:54.780 And they're also saying, if you are coming from, let's say, Guatemala, you're going to

00:55:59.780 pass through Mexico.

00:56:01.120 You have to ask Mexico first for asylum. 0.97

00:56:03.680 Now, in a different world, I think that's probably an improvement to the policy.

00:56:09.760 You should have to, right?

00:56:10.780 If you're walking through Mexico, you should have to ask Mexico first. 1.00

00:56:13.260 Of course, in reality, what happens is Mexico just comes up with their system to just say

00:56:17.440 no immediately so you can come to the border.

00:56:19.460 How are we going to prove that they actually did this?

00:56:21.780 We don't know.

00:56:22.900 And of course, there's no country in between Mexico and here.

00:56:25.960 So anyone from Mexico is exempt from this. 1.00

00:56:28.580 They can just come in because they're from Mexico. 0.96

00:56:31.800 They didn't have another country.

00:56:32.640 Also exempt anyone with children.

00:56:37.240 So if you show up as a family, we can't separate a family.

00:56:42.100 Of course not.

00:56:42.640 No.

00:56:43.040 Of course not.

00:56:43.480 So what we'll do is just let them all in.

00:56:45.620 That is literally the policy.

00:56:47.380 Now, of course, this not only will invite families to come, it will also create a market for children.

00:56:56.600 Because if you can show up with a kid, you get in.

00:56:59.660 So if you're a coyote, you're a drug cartel, what do you now have an incentive to collect,

00:57:07.340 to give to people crossing the border?

00:57:09.960 Children.

00:57:11.060 Okay.

00:57:11.420 So now I've created the market for children.

00:57:14.060 And then finally, none of this applies for people, residents of a country who we have bad relations with.

00:57:23.400 And the example they use, I kid you not, is Russia.

00:57:28.740 So if a Russian immigrant is coming across the southern border of the United States,

00:57:34.420 we just let them in because we don't have any diplomatic relations with Russia right now.

00:57:39.800 Solid.

00:57:40.280 We're currently funding the opposition to Russia in a war where we're sending billions of dollars of missiles to them.

00:57:49.380 And we're going, our answer here is, oh, well, anyone who shows up over the, and I don't know if you know this,

00:57:54.620 there's not really a straight line here for a Russian immigrant to cross the Mexican border.

00:57:59.800 But if they do that, we're like, okay, come on in.

00:58:02.220 We can't fly you home.

00:58:04.100 I would imagine that would apply then to Iran.

00:58:07.980 Iran.

00:58:08.300 Venezuela, maybe.

00:58:11.120 There's some other policies potentially that apply to Venezuela.

00:58:13.520 China? 0.73

00:58:14.180 China.

00:58:14.960 I don't know.

00:58:16.340 Do we have real diplomatic relations with China at this point?

00:58:19.800 It certainly doesn't seem like it.

00:58:21.540 Amazing.

00:58:21.860 So all of this is going on, and then their answer, when all of these people come in and they have no place to put them,

00:58:27.940 is the, quote, safe street release.

00:58:31.080 It shows the planning that's been going on for the last year, doesn't it?

00:58:34.340 I mean, it shows.

00:58:35.460 Sure does.

00:58:35.780 Just how well thought out this whole thing is.

00:58:38.160 888-727-BECK.

00:58:40.480 More coming up.

00:58:43.180 All of this indicates just why Joe Biden is so darn popular right now.

00:58:50.980 He was asked by Stephanie Ruhle about his polling numbers.

00:58:55.580 They discussed him, the polling numbers, because, man, what a tough interview she gave him the other day.

00:59:01.460 It was brutal.

00:59:04.340 You know, after talking about his policy victories, his economic plans that have been so good and how bad Republicans are,

00:59:12.840 they got into his polling numbers.

00:59:15.520 You're talking about real practical solutions when you reference insulin that you've come up with.

00:59:22.020 Why do you think you don't get more credit for it?

00:59:23.980 Why do you think your polling is where it is?

00:59:25.660 Well, I don't think, Pete, by the way, every major one who won re-election, their polling numbers were minor now.

00:59:31.660 Put polling aside then, right?

00:59:33.160 Sentiment in this country, despite all these wins, is not very good.

00:59:36.240 I think all they've heard is negative news for three years.

00:59:39.340 Everything is negative.

00:59:40.240 I'm not being critical of the press, but you turn on the television, the only way you're going to get a hit is if there's something negative.

00:59:46.680 What are you talking about?

00:59:47.960 Are you kidding me?

00:59:49.440 That's number one.

00:59:50.060 But number two, I think we're in a situation where you have much of what we were able to do.

00:59:54.840 This is legitimately one of the worst interviews I've ever heard.

00:59:57.920 I know.

00:59:59.260 Stop for a second.

01:00:00.260 This is legitimately one of the worst series of questions I've ever heard in my life.

01:00:07.080 It's amazing.

01:00:07.380 I mean, Jill Biden could be doing this interview. 0.99

01:00:09.320 If you told me Jill Biden, if I read the transcript and you told me the interviewer was Jill, I would actually believe it.

01:00:16.240 Look, why aren't you getting so much credit for all the wonderful things you're doing?

01:00:19.180 It's a comic book question.

01:00:21.760 If you did a sketch comedy show about a terrible interviewer, you'd put these questions in, right?

01:00:27.500 You've done so many amazing practical things that have made lives better.

01:00:32.900 Why don't people understand?

01:00:35.720 What the hell kind of question is that?

01:00:37.560 All the negative coverage he gets?

01:00:39.480 Do you remember 2016 to 2020?

01:00:44.880 Are you kidding me?

01:00:46.320 Apparently not.

01:00:46.960 I mean, Donald Trump, what was it, 95% negative coverage in the mainstream media?

01:00:52.940 Something right around there, yeah.

01:00:54.800 And this, we need to take more time with this particular clip, Pat, because we need to dive

01:01:00.600 into his central claim here.

01:01:02.300 Because even when he's getting an interviewer that could honestly be married to him, he's

01:01:08.400 still lying.

01:01:09.480 Yes.

01:01:10.180 He's still lying.

01:01:13.400 What?

01:01:14.200 This woman will take anything you're saying and spin it to a positive. 1.00

01:01:19.540 Why buy they're lying?

01:01:21.380 But that is really what he's doing.

01:01:24.080 Are you saying the polling numbers that he spouted weren't exactly right?

01:01:28.740 Like every incumbent president is at a really low number at this point in their presidency.

01:01:36.100 That's not accurate.

01:01:37.100 In fact, we should go through each one.

01:01:39.180 Let me bring up all of them for you since polling, modern polling existed and show you

01:01:44.980 how accurate this claim is.

01:01:46.760 Because Joe Biden says things that aren't true often.

01:01:49.340 Wow.

01:01:50.000 And I know that's a surprise.

01:01:51.340 Yeah, that's a stunning, stunning surprise.

01:01:54.220 But this one may be one of his least accurate claims in history.

01:01:58.220 I don't know that he's ever missed by this much.

01:02:01.220 It's really, really bad.

01:02:02.600 Was this fact checked on any of the, like, PolitiFact or Washington Post?

01:02:06.220 I don't know.

01:02:07.100 I mean, they were, the Washington Post just gave him a bottomless Pinocchio for his other

01:02:11.240 claim.

01:02:11.660 I have not seen if they fact checked this one yet.

01:02:14.220 But it's just not reality.

01:02:15.540 It's not what happens.

01:02:16.520 Of course, not everyone has the approval ratings and the differential that Joe Biden has.

01:02:22.000 It's, he's in a catastrophically bad position.

01:02:24.940 Now, he is counting 100% on the fact that Donald Trump will run, and then he will again receive

01:02:33.200 95% negative coverage, which will give Joe Biden 95% positive coverage, and he will be

01:02:39.220 able to stay in his basement and win this election.

01:02:41.040 That is what he's depending on.

01:02:42.340 That is his plan.

01:02:43.580 He does not plan on doing anything positive for the country or changing anybody's mind

01:02:49.180 about him.

01:02:49.640 He just wants you to forget about him.

01:02:51.940 So that is what he's going to attempt to do.

01:02:55.120 It is, uh, it's the typical disgraceful activity by the media.

01:02:59.220 But I'm honestly less worried about Biden in this one than the interviewer, who is just

01:03:03.960 horrific.

01:04:44.340 We were going through the, uh, polling.

01:04:46.880 The poll question that Stephanie Ruhle asked, uh, Joe Biden about.

01:04:52.460 You know, you've done such great things.

01:04:55.660 Why don't people love you like I do?

01:04:59.400 Why?

01:05:00.320 Why can't they understand what you've done for them?

01:05:04.280 It's essentially what she's saying.

01:05:05.880 She's not singing it, but it's essentially a love song.

01:05:08.260 Yeah, it is.

01:05:09.000 You know, it's like, why don't people appreciate you like I do?

01:05:12.080 And I honestly think, listening to this, this is her idea of a tough question.

01:05:16.220 This is her idea of pressing him, right?

01:05:18.700 Yeah.

01:05:18.960 She says, you're brilliant.

01:05:20.780 The things you've done are brilliant.

01:05:22.220 You're incredible.

01:05:23.580 But your numbers aren't all that good.

01:05:26.140 Why don't they understand the incredible things you've done?

01:05:29.560 That is like, that's her way of asking a quote-unquote tough question to Joe Biden.

01:05:33.700 Yeah.

01:05:33.980 We should go back and play it again.

01:05:35.480 And here's that portion of the interview.

01:05:38.720 You're talking about real practical solutions when you reference insulin that you've come up with.

01:05:45.280 Why do you think you don't get more credit for it?

01:05:47.240 Why do you think the polling is where it is?

01:05:49.040 I don't think people, like every major one who won re-election, their polling numbers were minor now.

01:05:54.620 Put polling aside then, right?

01:05:56.440 Sentiment in this country, despite all these wins, is not very good.

01:05:59.500 I think all they've heard is negative news for three years.

01:06:02.640 Everything is negative.

01:06:03.500 I'm not being critical of the press, but you turn on the television, the only way you're going to get a hit is if there's something negative.

01:06:09.900 You know, you don't, anyway.

01:06:12.480 That's number one.

01:06:13.440 But number two, I think we're in a situation where you have, much of what we were able to do only is going to come into play now.

01:06:23.840 For example, I met today.

01:06:25.740 I set up what they call a second cabinet.

01:06:29.140 Within my cabinet, I have an enforcement group.

01:06:31.720 They're the ones going out, making sure that we're getting the roads built, the highways built, and getting the lead pipes out of every neighborhood so people aren't dying or getting very sick.

01:06:45.980 They're the ones who are making sure that people begin to know what's happening and what's happening.

01:06:51.620 It's going to take time to get this done.

01:06:54.480 And so until we, unless we can make it clear to the American people what it is that we've actually done.

01:06:59.720 All right, stop this.

01:07:00.140 Okay, enough.

01:07:01.640 Now, you may know that if you're in a major city, you do see people beaten to death with lead pipes.

01:07:07.020 So there are some people who die from lead pipes.

01:07:09.480 With lead pipes.

01:07:10.120 He's right on that one.

01:07:11.120 Yeah.

01:07:11.340 And we get those lead pipes out.

01:07:12.800 They will hit them with other pipes, but they won't be lead pipes.

01:07:15.840 And that's important to make sure.

01:07:18.040 The claim on the election is one of the most ridiculous claims I've ever heard in my life.

01:07:23.860 He does not have approval ratings similar to other presidents.

01:07:27.480 Now, his claim was every president who has won re-election had numbers right around where I am.

01:07:35.760 Okay.

01:07:36.280 So let's just examine this.

01:07:37.680 Let's examine.

01:07:38.080 First of all, let's take the people who have lost re-election.

01:07:42.540 Okay.

01:07:43.300 Donald Trump did not win his re-election campaign.

01:07:48.900 The way, let's look at the split here.

01:07:51.440 You want to be obviously above water.

01:07:54.020 You don't want to be below it.

01:07:54.980 You don't want to be a minus number here.

01:07:56.480 You want to be a plus number.

01:07:57.860 Plus number would be, okay, you've got a higher approval than disapproval.

01:08:01.680 A minus number would be you have higher disapproval than approval.

01:08:04.480 Okay.

01:08:04.760 You want to be plus in these numbers.

01:08:07.220 Okay.

01:08:08.000 Biden is minus 10 at this point in his presidency.

01:08:11.360 Minus 10.

01:08:12.400 Trump was also minus 10 at this point in his presidency.

01:08:15.300 Now, think for a second of what they say about Donald Trump.

01:08:18.140 95% negative coverage, right?

01:08:20.160 Yep.

01:08:20.760 The person they've called literally Hitler.

01:08:22.800 They were in the middle of impeaching him twice.

01:08:26.560 Twice in this moment in between impeachments.

01:08:28.860 He was called the worst president of all time by every media source every single day.

01:08:35.540 He was minus 10.

01:08:36.940 Biden is also minus 10.

01:08:38.340 Jimmy Carter is the only other one here that did not win.

01:08:44.880 Well, it's not the only other one, but he was minus 12 and Biden was minus 10.

01:08:49.060 So, this doesn't help Biden's claim here.

01:08:53.080 I'm just giving you perspective, okay?

01:08:54.840 Because his claim was everyone who won re-election had numbers like he has, okay, at this point in his presidency.

01:09:01.480 Now, Gerald Ford also did not win re-election.

01:09:05.020 However, he was plus 2.

01:09:07.860 Biden is minus 10.

01:09:09.040 So, a 12-point split between Gerald Ford, who lost, and Joe Biden.

01:09:15.180 Let's go now through what he actually claimed.

01:09:17.320 People who have actually...

01:09:19.120 Oh, I should point out also, this one's not even fair, but George H.W. Bush.

01:09:23.380 Now, George H.W. Bush did not win re-election either.

01:09:26.580 However, he was plus 55 at this point in his presidency.

01:09:29.700 That's right, because it was after the Gulf War, the first Gulf War.

01:09:34.520 And his approval ratings were pretty good, actually.

01:09:37.360 But he was...

01:09:38.120 So, that's a 65-point split between him and Biden.

01:09:42.180 Okay, now we'll go to Barack Obama.

01:09:44.020 He was in this administration.

01:09:45.600 You'd think he might remember it.

01:09:47.000 Well, Barack Obama was plus 8.

01:09:50.720 An 18-point split between him and Joe Biden.

01:09:54.420 George W. Bush.

01:09:55.480 Now, this is not right after 9-11.

01:09:57.000 This is way after 9-11.

01:09:58.300 George Bush was plus 38.

01:10:01.200 So, a 48-point difference.

01:10:03.460 And you're not even using his worst approval rating, are you?

01:10:07.060 No, his current.

01:10:07.460 It's not the 36%.

01:10:09.080 No, this is an average.

01:10:10.040 You're talking the 43 or 42 or whatever it is.

01:10:12.840 I should point out, it's an average.

01:10:13.920 His approval rating on average right now is 42.6%.

01:10:17.040 His disapproval is 52.5%.

01:10:19.640 So, about 10 points.

01:10:21.740 Bill Clinton.

01:10:23.260 Clinton was plus 13, Biden minus 10.

01:10:26.200 A 23-point gap.

01:10:28.860 Ronald Reagan.

01:10:29.660 Now, Reagan was, you know, at this point in his presidency, remember, this is before the miracle really kicked in.

01:10:37.340 And he started sweeping to a massive re-election.

01:10:40.740 He was still only minus 4 at this point.

01:10:44.540 Biden minus 10.

01:10:45.460 A 6-point gap with Reagan.

01:10:47.380 But that's probably his best argument here for someone who was re-elected.

01:10:51.180 Okay, he's still 6 points behind him.

01:10:53.780 Richard Nixon won re-election.

01:10:56.440 He was plus 19.

01:10:58.380 So, a 29-point gap between Nixon and Biden.

01:11:03.380 Lyndon Johnson, who didn't run, but he was plus 29.

01:11:07.700 So, a 39-point gap.

01:11:09.420 That's unbelievable.

01:11:11.020 LBJ was plus 29?

01:11:12.940 Plus 29.

01:11:13.900 Again, I think one of the...

01:11:15.480 My gosh.

01:11:16.720 Underrated as one of the worst presidents of all time.

01:11:18.820 Oh, yeah, absolutely.

01:11:20.020 Really, no one really brings him up.

01:11:21.620 He's bottom three.

01:11:22.420 But he's a bottom three type of guy.

01:11:24.000 Yeah.

01:11:24.760 John F. Kennedy, of course, did not wind up running for re-election.

01:11:28.500 But he was plus 39, so a 49-point gap between him and Biden.

01:11:32.820 Wow.

01:11:33.680 Dwight D. Eisenhower, plus 55, so a 65-point gap.

01:11:38.780 And then Harry Truman was plus 30, so a 40-point gap.

01:11:42.780 So, that's what Biden was saying.

01:11:44.000 He was about the same as every other president who won.

01:11:47.500 I mean, the statement is...

01:11:48.700 Within 65 points.

01:11:50.220 Maybe, maybe you could say he was about the same as Reagan.

01:11:54.200 Maybe.

01:11:54.860 I mean, again, it's a six-point gap.

01:11:56.440 You could say, okay, they were close.

01:11:59.360 That's the only one that fits his argument at all.

01:12:02.720 Every other one he's wrong on.

01:12:04.160 And lying by 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 points.

01:12:08.880 He is...

01:12:09.840 It's incredible.

01:12:10.600 Despite the fact that he's completely incompetent, he might be just more of a liar.

01:12:15.220 Oh, I think he is.

01:12:16.640 I think almost every word out of his mouth during that interview was a lie.

01:12:22.400 I mean, he just non-stop lied about everything.

01:12:25.780 Yeah, and you really shouldn't have to lie when you have an interviewer who seems to worship you.

01:12:31.680 Right.

01:12:31.960 Seems to worship the ground you work on, walk on.

01:12:35.100 I mean, it's despicable.

01:12:36.040 This interview, every question is set up as if, you know, he is being asked it by a family member.

01:12:43.740 And that's not the way this is supposed to work.

01:12:46.500 It's absolutely embarrassing.

01:12:48.000 She should be ashamed of herself.

01:12:50.280 But I'm sure she's very proud of the interview.

01:12:52.660 And I bet she got congratulated by all her contemporaries.

01:12:57.320 I bet she got congratulated by the staff members that set it up.

01:13:00.080 Oh, yeah.

01:13:00.580 The people that gave her access.

01:13:03.140 This is Stephanie Rule. 1.00

01:13:04.160 I don't really know her background.

01:13:05.820 I assume she was a former Democratic operative.

01:13:09.940 I mean, I just, by these questions, I assume that.

01:13:12.280 I don't know.

01:13:13.380 I don't know.

01:13:14.040 Maybe she's done good interviews before.

01:13:16.060 There is a, like, sort of a tactic that some interviewers do where they will essentially kiss your butt to get to certain pieces of information.

01:13:26.140 Maybe that's what she was trying to do here. 1.00

01:13:27.940 To me, it does not appear that way at all.

01:13:29.660 I mean, I, you know.

01:13:30.400 No, she just loves the guy.

01:13:31.980 It seems like she just loves the guy.

01:13:33.100 And, you know, her only questions are, like, why isn't your messaging of all your brilliance catching on?

01:13:38.520 It should catch on more because you're so great.

01:13:40.320 It's like the American people are so stupid that they don't see your brilliance, that they don't see all the great things you've done for them.

01:13:46.440 Yeah.

01:13:47.220 I mean, you've raised inflation by, what, six percentage points or more?

01:13:55.180 And that means more money in people's pockets.

01:13:57.280 It's like, wait a minute.

01:13:59.460 It's not the way this works at all.

01:14:01.520 I don't think that is right, exactly, but wow.

01:14:05.520 If you were hoping there was going to be some glimmer that the media was going to turn itself around, it's hard to see it when you watch stuff like this.

01:14:13.860 This is embarrassing.

01:14:15.900 Embarrassing.

01:14:16.300 And this guy has not faced any tough questions other than occasionally Peter or Steve Doocy.

01:14:24.080 Which one is it?

01:14:24.840 Peter.

01:14:25.140 It's Peter Doocy.

01:14:25.960 Peter Doocy, who is there every day.

01:14:28.300 And he actually asks tough questions to KJP, which she basically ignores or reads the answers to out of her book.

01:14:34.640 Yeah.

01:14:35.600 And again, this was part of that interview as well.

01:14:39.100 There is something personal that's affecting you.

01:14:41.040 Your son, while there's no ties to you, could be charged.

01:14:44.020 Your son, while there's no ties to you?

01:14:47.900 There's no ties to his son?

01:14:49.980 He has no ties to his son.

01:14:51.600 Wow.

01:14:51.980 That's pretty weird, since they just went on a European trip together.

01:14:56.360 And, you know, just DNA.

01:14:58.020 Like, there's got to be some ties.

01:14:59.080 Yeah, there's some ties.

01:14:59.920 There are some ties.

01:15:01.400 And now he's, the reason she says that, I'm sure, is because he has said they didn't even talk about his business dealings, which is an absolute lie.

01:15:10.940 And we know that from the emails now.

01:15:13.300 It's proven multiple times that that's just a complete lie.

01:15:16.220 Yeah.

01:15:16.360 Your Department of Justice, how will that impact your presidency?

01:15:20.040 First of all, my son's done nothing wrong.

01:15:21.820 Now, stop.

01:15:22.380 Stop.

01:15:22.700 I trust him.

01:15:23.520 Look, there are a lot of things you can say.

01:15:25.380 As a father, I can understand not wanting to destroy your kid in a public interview.

01:15:31.300 I get it.

01:15:32.060 Like, if that was happening to me, I'm sure I would come up with some magical way.

01:15:36.420 But not, my son's done nothing wrong.

01:15:39.280 The man is on film.

01:15:40.920 Yeah.

01:15:41.320 Doing drugs off of prostitutes.

01:15:44.880 Yeah.

01:15:45.580 Right?

01:15:46.080 Not only that, but we know about the drug.

01:15:48.360 I mean, the gun charge as well.

01:15:50.880 The gun charge.

01:15:51.640 The, how about just the racist texts?

01:15:54.800 Yeah.

01:15:55.160 You know, the tons of racist texts.

01:15:57.640 I will also note that he wound up hooking up with his dead brother's wife and then cheated

01:16:06.180 on her with a stripper. 0.93

01:16:08.300 I guess.

01:16:08.620 That's not wrong.

01:16:09.660 Impregnated the stripper.

01:16:10.980 That's not wrong.

01:16:11.740 Gave you a grandchild that you're now abandoning.

01:16:15.180 He tried to claim that he wasn't the father and had no responsibility toward the two of

01:16:20.700 them.

01:16:20.880 Yep.

01:16:21.280 Lied until it was proven by DNA science.

01:16:24.200 Yeah.

01:16:25.360 Yeah.

01:16:25.740 And nothing, he's done nothing wrong.

01:16:28.480 I mean, that is.

01:16:29.420 It's ludicrous.

01:16:30.340 Like, you could say, look, my son's had tons of problems.

01:16:33.340 They're well documented.

01:16:34.280 He wrote a book about it.

01:16:35.620 Yes.

01:16:35.920 He's trying to do his best and I'm rooting for him.

01:16:38.880 But of course, his, whatever legal trouble he may wind up bumping into has nothing to

01:16:43.720 do with our presidency.

01:16:44.480 And I think the American people will look at the situation and judge us by what we've

01:16:48.640 done in office, right?

01:16:49.360 Like, that's a generic boilerplate answer that any human being should be able to come

01:16:54.780 up with on the fly.

01:16:56.360 And his is, he's done nothing wrong.

01:16:58.400 What are you insane?

01:17:00.240 He's on video doing things wrong over and over and over and over again.

01:17:05.540 How can you say he's done nothing wrong?

01:17:08.840 Wow.

01:17:09.320 It's like.

01:17:10.000 You're pretty judgy.

01:17:11.840 That's true.

01:17:12.540 Yeah.

01:17:12.780 Wow.

01:17:13.100 I am judging him.

01:17:14.500 All right.

01:17:14.920 Triple eight, seven, two, seven.

01:18:45.620 Uh, it is Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn back program.

01:18:48.660 Hopefully, uh, Glenn will return, uh, tomorrow, not positive on when he, um, uh, returns,

01:18:54.600 but hopefully, uh, tomorrow meantime, uh, we've got, uh, a Washington post, uh, Kaiser

01:19:02.320 family foundation.

01:19:05.140 Yeah.

01:19:06.100 Paul that, uh, that finds, well, according to the Washington post, most Americans support

01:19:11.540 anti-trans policies.

01:19:14.160 Uh, of course, that's the Washington post spin on the issue.

01:19:19.080 Um, I call them, uh, pro children and pro women policies that most Americans support.

01:19:29.000 Most Americans don't believe it's even possible to be a gender that different differs from that

01:19:35.240 assigned at birth.

01:19:36.160 57% of adults said a person's gender is determined from the start with 43% saying it can differ.

01:19:46.460 That's only 57, 43.

01:19:48.320 I mean, while it's most Americans, that's still not probably where it should be.

01:19:54.640 Yeah.

01:19:54.880 I gotta say, I'm not overwhelmed with that number.

01:19:57.960 No.

01:19:58.140 Like, yes, obviously people, I mean, and to me, it just seems completely obvious that of

01:20:03.440 course, the majority of people agree that men are men or women and women, you know, and

01:20:08.040 you find that out when you're bored.

01:20:09.660 That seems to be, it's the, been the truth forever.

01:20:12.320 Yeah.

01:20:12.540 And now that it's a 57, 43, that's not exactly a good outcome in a poll.

01:20:18.740 No, but it's better than, I guess, maybe I would expect from the media coverage who, who

01:20:23.180 treated as if it's blatantly obvious that gender affirming care, which is the opposite

01:20:28.000 of what it means is the only way to go.

01:20:30.860 It's the only thing you can do.

01:20:32.120 You have to affirm that they want to be the other gender than they are. 1.00

01:20:36.080 Of course, affirm it.

01:20:37.260 What else would you do but affirm?

01:20:39.780 It's, it's insanity.

01:20:41.300 Now, as far as sports are concerned, uh, there's more agreement on that more, more than six

01:20:48.060 in 10 adults.

01:20:49.700 So 60%, uh, in this poll said trans girls and women should not be allowed to compete in girls

01:20:56.660 and women's sports, including professional college, high school, and youth levels.

01:21:03.860 So 60% say, you know, let, let women compete against actual women. 0.83

01:21:10.860 So biological women compete only against biological women. 1.00

01:21:14.420 Hmm.

01:21:15.220 And then maybe you can create a trans category.

01:21:17.620 If you want to compete in sports, um, seven in 10 adults, 70% said they oppose allowing

01:21:25.700 children age 10 to 14, get access to medication that stops their body from going through puberty.

01:21:32.840 So 70% say, yeah, puberty blockers, eh, probably not a good thing.

01:21:39.940 That should be a little bit higher too.

01:21:41.720 Yeah.

01:21:41.960 70%?

01:21:43.140 It's, you know, maybe better than you'd expect by listening to the media coverage, but not

01:21:46.680 good enough for a civilization.

01:21:48.780 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:21:50.160 Let's be blunt.

01:21:50.820 Sweating is embarrassing.

01:21:52.220 I'm not a fan of it.

01:21:53.280 Uh, of course we know Jeffy.

01:21:54.560 So we know what sweating is, uh, just constant flop sweat.

01:21:58.860 And of course we live in Dallas, which means that for eight months of the year, it's like

01:22:03.220 living in a volcano, a very humid volcano.

01:22:05.880 Uh, so are you going to have to just accept that you're going to sweat all the time?

01:22:09.940 No.

01:22:10.320 Sweat block wipes at night.

01:22:11.940 Uh, and you don't have to worry about it during the day.

01:22:14.580 Uh, it's, you know, look, sweating can be embarrassing.

01:22:17.180 It can be uncomfortable.

01:22:18.340 I know Jeffy, Jeffy uses these things, right?

01:22:20.120 Doesn't he?

01:22:20.700 Yeah.

01:22:20.880 And he really loves them.

01:22:22.720 Um, you know, and believe me, we've seen Jeff, we've known Jeffy for a long time.

01:22:26.140 I met him when he lived in Florida and he was just a ball of sweat, a giant ball of sweat.

01:22:31.760 And now he's not, which is incredible.

01:22:34.080 I mean, I would have never thought there was a product on the market that could have solved

01:22:36.780 that problem.

01:22:37.380 I will tell you.

01:22:37.960 And he'll, he'll just sit there and sweat.

01:22:40.060 Oh yeah.

01:22:40.680 Oh yeah.

01:22:41.140 On TV, on camera.

01:22:42.540 It's amazing.

01:22:43.120 Uh, sweat block.

01:23:48.960 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:23:58.260 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

01:24:00.880 888-727-BECK.

01:24:03.860 Uh, we're going to get into, uh, neo-Nazis.

01:24:05.900 And apparently this shooter from, uh, the Allen premium outlet mall, uh, shooting the other

01:24:15.320 day was a neo-Nazi, a Latino neo-Nazi who also play, uh, praise the trans mass murderer. 0.69

01:24:21.940 Uh, tell you about that coming up in one minute.

01:24:24.880 Well, let's talk about, uh, Goldline.

01:24:30.740 Hey, how's that dollar doing today?

01:24:34.280 Huh?

01:24:35.240 Is that right?

01:24:37.920 Goldline has a special this week to prepare for what I like to call the coming debt ceiling

01:24:44.320 carnage.

01:24:45.480 Uh, the carnage is coming.

01:24:48.080 Did you see, uh, Janet Yellen?

01:24:50.900 She was talking about how, well, it would cause a constitutional crisis if they, you know,

01:24:55.700 just said, uh, uh, don't worry about Congress.

01:24:58.520 She said, quote, Congress just has to do its job.

01:25:02.900 Congress.

01:25:04.460 Secretary Yellen is doing its job.

01:25:07.680 By trying to stop the out of control spending, that's going to end the dollar that you know

01:25:14.560 very well is true.

01:25:16.880 Oh, these people.

01:25:18.800 Anyway, she said, it'll just put us into a tailspin.

01:25:22.680 Hmm.

01:25:23.200 And so it'll work out for you guys too.

01:25:25.180 That way.

01:25:25.840 Hmm.

01:25:26.600 Goldline's popular one quarter ounce Mayflower gold rounds are available after being out of

01:25:31.300 stock for almost a month.

01:25:32.800 With every quarter ounce gold Mayflower acquired, you're going to receive one

01:25:37.380 brilliant uncirculated silver Kennedy half dollar at no extra charge.

01:25:42.280 And with each full tube of 25 gold quarter ounce Mayflowers acquired, you'll also receive

01:25:48.700 a special unique gift from Goldline.

01:25:51.460 Call now.

01:25:52.400 Find out what it is, how you can protect some of the money that you have.

01:25:57.660 Please consider it.

01:25:58.800 It's right for my family.

01:26:00.560 It might be right for yours.

01:26:02.620 866-GOLDLINE.

01:26:04.380 866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.

01:26:07.380 So we got some indications right away, really, that this guy was maybe a neo-Nazi.

01:26:17.620 And I thought, well, he's Latino.

01:26:21.020 Could he really be a neo-Nazi white supremacist?

01:26:23.720 I don't think it follows that if he's a neo-Nazi, he's a white supremacist necessarily.

01:26:30.080 Although, I guess Nazis tended to be sort of white supremacists.

01:26:34.960 Yeah.

01:26:35.440 I mean, obviously, that was pretty central to their ideology, though not every fascist

01:26:40.440 organization has been white or based on white supremacy.

01:26:44.840 Also, I just heard, who was it?

01:26:47.940 Oh, it was KJP calling this guy a extreme right-winger.

01:26:54.320 That is not a right-wing.

01:26:57.040 It's not on the American right-wing.

01:26:59.640 Thank you.

01:27:00.100 If you're a Nazi, that is not a right-wing ideology.

01:27:07.560 That is a left-wing ideology.

01:27:10.960 In Europe, it might be right-wing because you've got communism on one side and fascism on the

01:27:16.200 other.

01:27:16.440 That's not the case here.

01:27:17.420 No, and that's why I completely reject what they're trying to do here, which is tie the

01:27:22.920 American Republican Party, the conservative movement, Donald Trump specifically, to this

01:27:29.120 guy or to white supremacy in any way.

01:27:31.840 I mean, it's got nothing to do with what I believe.

01:27:33.760 It's got nothing to do with what you believe.

01:27:35.480 No.

01:27:35.680 I mean, just centrally, the Nazi movement was, yes, based on white supremacy, which is something

01:27:43.080 I completely reject and think is an abhorrent ideology, but also it was connected to complete 0.85

01:27:48.820 centralized government control, which obviously is the antithesis of everything we talk about

01:27:55.140 every day.

01:27:55.700 Yeah.

01:27:55.920 It's the exact opposite of what I want out of a government.

01:27:58.760 We want small government.

01:27:59.840 It's what the left wants.

01:28:01.320 They want more control over your life.

01:28:02.920 They want the government to control every aspect of every day.

01:28:06.260 But can you argue with any, can any coherent person argue that the Nazis were like, you 0.88

01:28:11.220 know what, let everyone, live and let live.

01:28:14.480 You know, just do what you want to do here in Nazi land. 0.94

01:28:17.660 That's not how that worked.

01:28:19.520 Not at all.

01:28:19.960 No.

01:28:20.580 In fact, the government that I want would be incapable of doing the things the Nazis did 0.96

01:28:25.880 because they wouldn't have the power needed to do it.

01:28:29.360 That's what's, I think, really nice about the conservative movement.

01:28:32.960 You know, we want a government that is limited in scope.

01:28:35.680 So, therefore, it cannot make moves like the Nazis did. 0.84

01:28:40.040 Not even just, of course, obviously, the murderous tendencies of a lot of these people,

01:28:46.480 but also just their government policies, which included, by the way, government health care,

01:28:51.940 government jobs, government cars.

01:28:55.420 Gun control.

01:28:56.500 You know, government vacations.

01:29:00.840 Massive environmental policy.

01:29:03.000 You want to talk about really one of the first major movements in environmentalism

01:29:07.460 was the Nazi party in Germany.

01:29:10.500 They are the basic creators of many of the tenets of what, you know, of the opposition

01:29:17.680 to deforestation that we see today.

01:29:20.000 They were heavily involved in the environmental movement.

01:29:23.820 Now, again, once the war hit, they kind of, they abandoned a lot of those big statements.

01:29:29.000 They valued the war and taking over the world at a higher level. 0.93

01:29:33.960 But they were big-time innovators at that time and were praised by people all over the world.

01:29:41.120 The same way that it's happening now, they were praised by people all over the world for these policies.

01:29:46.640 The government policies, how they were moving into a new world,

01:29:51.840 understanding a new economy, similar to the praise you hear about China today.

01:29:56.920 That was the same stuff that was being hit to Germany back in the day.

01:30:02.200 They were seen as a rising star.

01:30:05.260 And until they started, you know, attacking everybody around them, really nobody questioned it.

01:30:10.040 And honestly, as we know, even when they got into the Holocaust,

01:30:12.820 there was plenty of denial by the mainstream media here.

01:30:16.780 Major institutions in the media here.

01:30:19.460 So, this is what they're trying to do, I guess, with the shooter, because the shooter,

01:30:24.740 we don't know this, we should point out, we don't have this independently confirmed.

01:30:29.640 What we do have are media reports of the social media postings.

01:30:34.020 Now, we can't get the Nashville shooter manifesto.

01:30:37.340 But apparently, we know everything about this guy that happened more recently in Texas.

01:30:41.480 That's all a bit out there.

01:30:43.000 And so...

01:30:44.040 Interesting, isn't it?

01:30:44.880 Yeah, very interesting.

01:30:46.020 What they're saying, he was a member of something called the Right Wing Death Squad,

01:30:50.000 which, you know, if you're a member of any wing's death squad,

01:30:53.600 you may want to reconsider your membership.

01:30:55.980 Yeah, please.

01:30:56.980 It's a Patton's due safety tip.

01:30:59.120 You know, if death squad's in your name, probably not a good thing.

01:31:02.800 But he was a guy who apparently posted photos of Nazis in complimentary ways.

01:31:10.960 He said something about how Joseph Mengele was one of his heroes.

01:31:15.080 This is not a good person in any way, shape, or form.

01:31:18.480 Well, he was nuts.

01:31:19.640 And also nuts.

01:31:20.480 He acknowledged online that there was something wrong with him.

01:31:23.500 And he was right, obviously.

01:31:25.380 And he was kicked out of the military because there was something wrong with him.

01:31:26.960 He was.

01:31:28.180 He served in the U.S. Army, but was removed due to mental health concerns in 2008.

01:31:34.360 So, that gives you a little idea of what was going on in this guy's head.

01:31:40.920 Yeah.

01:31:42.480 Just a tad bit of an idea.

01:31:44.480 And this happens over and over again.

01:31:46.600 You know, mental health, obviously, is one of those things that gets tossed around

01:31:49.860 after every mass shooting.

01:31:51.640 And it is really important to deal with.

01:31:53.400 I do, I tend to believe that even if you were to make real inroads on the mental health thing,

01:32:02.100 you'd still have a tough time stopping mass shootings.

01:32:04.560 It's just really difficult to stop.

01:32:06.860 And when you have a country that has, obviously, access to guns,

01:32:09.960 we have a Second Amendment that guarantees your right to get them in most circumstances.

01:32:13.740 It is really difficult.

01:32:15.840 It's really good.

01:32:16.580 And people are like, whoa, what about Japan?

01:32:19.400 They don't have mass shootings.

01:32:21.920 Look, if you want to do fantasy football SimCity,

01:32:25.400 we can all create this fake country that doesn't exist, that has no guns in it,

01:32:29.660 and try to implement these policies from the beginning and see what happens.

01:32:32.740 I mean, you can have North Korea probably has very few mass shootings, I'd imagine,

01:32:36.020 except from the government.

01:32:37.180 In fact, all the worst mass shootings in history are from the governments.

01:32:40.640 All of them.

01:32:42.140 But, you know, sure, maybe, you know, you could do that.

01:32:44.680 If you want to lock down a population, you want to take away their rights.

01:32:47.720 Japan isn't North Korea, but they have a different culture.

01:32:50.700 They have higher suicide rates than we do here, because that's what's in their culture.

01:32:55.280 In Arab nations, what do you see? 0.66

01:32:56.760 You don't see maybe as many mass shootings, but what you see are a lot of explosions at Sbarro.

01:33:01.340 You know, and we've seen more of the approach of running a bunch of people over at festivals in Europe than you've seen here.

01:33:10.380 We've seen a little bit of that here.

01:33:11.560 We saw a little bit of that here in Texas, potentially, recently, and another terrible incident from this weekend.

01:33:18.480 But, like, you know, look, obviously guns are part of our culture, and it's the type of thing that gets lots of attention.

01:33:24.460 Maybe you try to reverse that.

01:33:27.040 Now, mental health would go, I think, a longer way to prevent suicide, which is a much bigger part of gun violence.

01:33:33.720 It's a much, much more significant issue than mass shootings.

01:33:37.900 Mass shootings are bad.

01:33:39.680 We want to stop them.

01:33:40.660 We'd love to get the number to zero.

01:33:43.260 I think the FBI estimates about 100 people per year die in mass shootings.

01:33:46.840 That's bad.

01:33:47.840 I want it to be zero.

01:33:48.560 However, in reality, getting a 100 to zero, even if you completely eliminated it, would not be a significant change in the gun violence numbers.

01:33:59.400 We have about 40,000 gun deaths per year.

01:34:02.180 More than half of them are suicides.

01:34:03.960 No one ever talks about that.

01:34:05.480 Right?

01:34:05.640 No one ever even mentions it.

01:34:06.900 We all talk about the 100 deaths that happen in mass shootings.

01:34:10.240 Perhaps that's a bad focus.

01:34:12.040 Perhaps that's a really terrible way of handling this.

01:34:13.940 And it's funny, the one thing we give attention to is the one thing that is furthered by giving attention to it.

01:34:20.480 Right?

01:34:21.320 These mass shooters, over and over again, are trying to get attention and set records and do all these things to give themselves the glory.

01:34:30.440 And then what do we do?

01:34:32.000 It's the one thing we talk about constantly.

01:34:34.000 And this particular person might have set records, too, had it not been for the hero cop from the Allen Police Department that ran toward the gunfire, as opposed to what happened in Uvalde.

01:34:48.960 He ran toward the gunfire and put an end to him and his rampage, which, you know, yes, thank heaven for that.

01:34:57.760 But, was this guy a citizen?

01:35:03.180 Because he wrote in his final post that he had been thinking of moving back to Mexico.

01:35:09.920 Which makes me wonder, was he illegally here?

01:35:12.620 I don't know.

01:35:13.400 And we know that was the case in another shooting recently here in Texas.

01:35:17.460 Yeah, with the Cleveland shooting.

01:35:18.880 In Cleveland, Texas.

01:35:19.480 Or the illegal alien killed five, a family of five of his next-door neighbors. 0.61

01:35:26.280 After being deported four or five times.

01:35:28.060 Yeah.

01:35:28.640 We should point out.

01:35:30.060 Right.

01:35:30.560 And we also have a situation, we mentioned the attack, which we don't know for sure if it was a attack or if it was just a terrible mistake of some sort.

01:35:44.820 So, this car that bolted, I don't know if you, there was video of this, it's horrific, of a car, or it's actually an SUV, kind of just careening through a bunch of people sitting on the sidewalk.

01:35:57.380 And, I mean, it's just like body parts go everywhere.

01:36:01.300 I mean, it's like this guy at full speed blows through and just hits these people.

01:36:05.480 I guess he blew a red light.

01:36:06.940 The question was, is it just some terrible, terrible accident of some sort?

01:36:09.820 Was it a drunk driving incident or was it someone who wanted to kill these people for whatever reason?

01:36:14.760 Yeah, because the article I just read this morning said that he lost control after running a red light.

01:36:20.700 Yeah.

01:36:21.120 And then the car rolled, right?

01:36:24.440 The SUV rolled over?

01:36:26.780 Yeah, well, it rolled over as he was hitting.

01:36:28.360 As he was hitting.

01:36:29.040 Yeah, he basically hit the curb and that made him roll over.

01:36:32.520 I mean, it is a horrific.

01:36:33.820 But we don't know for a fact he did it on purpose.

01:36:36.520 They just, they kind of suspect.

01:36:37.780 They suspect it.

01:36:39.400 Now, it may very well be.

01:36:41.100 I think he's been uncooperative.

01:36:42.780 Yes, which makes you think it wasn't like, you know, a mistake.

01:36:46.940 And it could have been, a drunk driving would, you know, could also explain it.

01:36:50.760 But it does seem like, I don't know, to me it seems like it may have been intentional.

01:36:53.920 We don't know why, though.

01:36:55.020 We don't have any reason to understand, you know, it was a similar motivation as what it seems like it was in Alan.

01:37:01.740 But, like, let's step back from this for a second.

01:37:04.100 How do you stop these things?

01:37:05.100 How do you stop gun violence?

01:37:06.000 How do you lower gun violence?

01:37:07.780 They're going to say, take away the guns.

01:37:09.580 So, let's say you stopped new purchases of AR-15s.

01:37:14.800 Okay?

01:37:15.040 That's one of the things they want to do.

01:37:16.420 Now, we've already done this back in 1994 to 2004.

01:37:19.180 The government's own study said it did nothing for gun violence rates.

01:37:22.460 What it did do is have people buy less, fewer AR-15s, but more other weapons.

01:37:27.480 So, actually, at the end of the day, at the end of the 10 years, more guns were on the streets than before.

01:37:33.180 More people, there were more guns purchased, more guns in ownership than before.

01:37:37.080 So, likely, we'd see the same thing.

01:37:39.020 So, some idea of going from 400 million guns that we currently have on the streets to, let's say, 420 million guns, unlikely to reduce gun violence because there's fewer guns on the streets.

01:37:49.660 Well, it wouldn't because the Democratic battle cry is more guns, more killings.

01:37:55.820 Right.

01:37:56.360 So, obviously, there'd be more killings if they get rid of some of these guns.

01:38:00.380 Yeah.

01:38:00.600 I mean, you and Pat are aware of people who have purchased AR-15s, not personally like yourself, but you know people who have done it.

01:38:07.740 I do know people who have done that.

01:38:09.320 And those guns are a couple grand, right?

01:38:11.820 Yes.

01:38:12.380 A couple thousand dollars?

01:38:13.640 Now, that was years ago.

01:38:14.860 I heard about a person who bought it at the wrong time, and it was an $1,800 purchase.

01:38:22.100 $1,800.

01:38:22.740 For that particular weapon.

01:38:24.380 I don't know.

01:38:24.880 I don't know as many people as you do that happen to have purchased these.

01:38:29.440 That person also lost it in a massive body of water, though.

01:38:33.920 He doesn't know where.

01:38:35.320 That's terrible.

01:38:36.240 A lot of people, I've noticed, have lost their guns in big bodies of water.

01:38:41.680 I don't know how many times we have to say it.

01:38:42.820 There's no reason to bring your guns on a boat like that.

01:38:44.980 You shouldn't need to.

01:38:45.500 You don't need to bring your entire arsenal.

01:38:47.080 You don't need to.

01:38:47.780 You want to bring one gun for protection?

01:38:49.200 Sure.

01:38:50.280 Because if you tip over and capsize, you're going to lose all your weapons.

01:38:55.740 That's right.

01:38:56.300 And that's not good.

01:38:56.960 So, and that's a terrible, terrible thing.

01:39:00.700 Terrible.

01:39:01.020 You don't want that to happen.

01:39:02.200 No.

01:39:02.400 So, people, if they spent, let's say, $2,000 on a gun 10 years ago, my guess is probably

01:39:11.440 more expensive now.

01:39:13.180 But you can get, how many guns?

01:39:16.500 For $2,000?

01:39:17.220 For $2,000.

01:39:17.960 You know, five, six, seven, eight.

01:39:20.140 I mean, it depends on what you're buying, obviously.

01:39:22.000 Pretty good guns.

01:39:22.500 Good guns.

01:39:23.140 You know, for $200, $220, something like that.

01:39:25.260 Many of the biggest mass shootings in history did not use AR-15s.

01:39:28.900 They used other guns.

01:39:29.600 So, you can buy, instead of having one AR-15, you could have five, six, seven guns.

01:39:33.400 You can buy extended magazines.

01:39:34.680 You can do all the things that the left hates, but just times five or six or seven.

01:39:39.640 So many unintended consequences when Democrats do stupid things like this.

01:39:44.200 And so, it doesn't work at all.

01:39:46.460 No.

01:39:46.560 But one thing that might work, let me just throw this out there.

01:39:49.420 Let's take a quick break.

01:39:50.840 Yeah.

01:39:51.080 And we'll come back in 60 seconds.

01:39:52.560 Let me throw this one out there. 0.99

01:39:54.300 Now, it used to be concepts like the customer is always right shaped the way that we did

01:39:58.480 business.

01:39:59.420 Companies weren't ideologically captured by wokeism, and taking care of the customer's

01:40:03.900 needs were more important, frankly, than finding ways to show your leftist credentials.

01:40:09.340 That's a dead world.

01:40:10.320 We don't live there anymore.

01:40:11.220 But every once in a while, if you look in the right place, you can find a company that

01:40:14.300 still wants to do business the American way.

01:40:17.820 Patriot Mobile, America's only Christian conservative wireless provider, offers dependable

01:40:47.200 helping, you know, the non-woke people win in these school board elections.

01:40:52.120 And that's incredibly important.

01:41:22.120 888-727-BECK.

01:41:24.200 So let's put the gun deaths in three buckets here for a minute.

01:41:27.500 Mass shootings, suicides, and all their violence, gang violence, inner city violence that we've,

01:41:34.080 you know, is really common.

01:41:34.960 I see you're skimming over accidents, accidental deaths, accidental shootings.

01:41:39.020 It's probably more than the mass shooting thing, but also-

01:41:41.980 It probably is.

01:41:42.660 It is, but, you know, again, a small piece of the puzzle.

01:41:45.120 Yeah.

01:41:45.700 So the suicides, I think the mental health stuff could really make a difference there.

01:41:49.700 You know, I mean, again, these are usually people who don't, aren't trying to do harm

01:41:53.960 to anyone.

01:41:54.680 They just feel lost and despondent.

01:41:57.360 Mental health can really help there.

01:41:58.740 And I think we can improve that.

01:42:00.180 And that's part of the solutions that the conservatives usually talk about.

01:42:03.880 When you talk about actual gun violence, I think just enforcing the laws that we currently

01:42:08.680 have would go a long way.

01:42:10.100 Let me give you a picture of this guy in, near the border who ran over all these migrants.

01:42:15.340 Here's his rap sheet.

01:42:16.200 Criminal history includes aggravated, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, assault against

01:42:22.240 elderly or disabled, assault causing bodily injury to a family member, assault of a public

01:42:28.240 servant, burglary of a vehicle, assaulting, excuse me, assault causing bodily injury, criminal

01:42:35.580 mischief, driving while intoxicated, evading arrest, detention, interference with public

01:42:41.960 duties, obstruction or retaliation, possession of marijuana, resisting arrest, search or transport

01:42:48.060 and theft of property.

01:42:49.520 Is that everything?

01:42:50.200 Because I heard it was like 40.

01:42:51.620 There were like, there were like 40 items on his rap sheet.

01:42:54.560 There's so many.

01:42:55.100 Yeah.

01:42:55.280 This is just part of it.

01:42:56.440 This is just what it includes his criminal history.

01:42:58.740 The point here is a person with this profile should not have the ability to run anyone over

01:43:03.420 because they're behind bars and their car is not, right?

01:43:08.640 You can't drive when you're put away for the rest of your life because you've done things

01:43:12.780 like this.

01:43:13.900 And this is the case with many gun crimes where the left says they want gun control, but do

01:43:20.360 they?

01:43:21.440 Because gun control means enforcing the laws after they're passed.

01:43:26.200 We have a lot of laws that tell you whether you can have a gun or not.

01:43:29.280 And when criminals, particularly in inner cities, get caught violating these laws, Soros-based 0.60

01:43:34.580 backed prosecutors come in and they say, ah, it's a misdemeanor.

01:43:38.340 You're free to go.

01:43:39.700 And then they go out and kill people.

01:43:41.240 And then they say, wow, this gun violence is out of control.

01:43:44.040 If you could, let's say, shave 10% off of the murders in that bucket, the gang violence

01:43:50.340 and inner city murder and all those terrible things, it would do much more difference than

01:43:55.820 getting the mass shooting number to zero, right?

01:43:59.820 It would do much more for our country that would be positive.

01:44:03.760 More people would be alive.

01:44:05.420 And that's a priority of mine.

01:44:07.460 I know that for the left, when you think of abortion policy, you might think it's not,

01:44:11.480 but they tell me it is a priority.

01:44:13.740 Why wouldn't they care about that?

01:44:15.020 How many times have we heard?

01:44:16.580 If it saves one life.

01:44:19.980 This would save many more than one.

01:44:22.000 Many more than one.

01:44:22.560 Just keep these people who have violated the law this many times, get them out of our faces.

01:44:28.680 Stop having them harass us on subways, for example.

01:44:32.780 And maybe the bad things you keep complaining about wouldn't happen so much.

01:46:12.920 Pat and Stu on the Glenn Beck program.

01:46:15.980 You know, I'm getting tired of these right-wing kooks and their conspiracy theories.

01:46:20.840 Thank you for saying this.

01:46:21.880 Thank you.

01:46:22.380 I think it has to be said now.

01:46:23.960 It really does.

01:46:24.640 Yeah.

01:46:24.840 With this gas stove thing.

01:46:27.320 Conspiracy.

01:46:27.760 It's so ridiculous.

01:46:30.140 They're making things up out of thin air.

01:46:33.080 No one's opposed to gas stoves.

01:46:35.280 Nobody is coming after your gas stove.

01:46:39.640 Please.

01:46:40.120 I mean, listen to these commentators telling you about it.

01:46:44.500 You might think that the U.S. government is coming for your gas stove.

01:46:48.400 That is a new and absolutely ridiculous one.

01:46:51.580 Fox News and Republicans are up in arms because they say the government is coming to take your stoves.

01:46:57.540 What Republicans are saying is, damn it, they're going to take your gas stove.

01:47:01.760 The GOP has been stoking a ridiculous new freakout about gas stoves.

01:47:05.720 No one is taking your gas stove.

01:47:07.120 The right-wing freakout over the use of gas stoves is merely the latest in a long series of made-up cultural battles designed to enrage and rile up their right-wing and paranoid base.

01:47:18.340 Republicans are prone to conspiracy theories, whether it's, you know, the kooky like JFK Jr.'s coming back from the dead to run with Trump or the sort of duplicitous like this administration's coming to take away your gas stoves.

01:47:32.740 Republicans have turned a government warning about your health into a lie about Democrats trying to take your stoves.

01:47:39.840 You get some bureaucrat saying something that has no power and then suddenly.

01:47:44.240 And then suddenly.

01:47:45.920 You have Ron DeSantis, so I'm going to protect your gas.

01:47:48.600 Everybody's going to be talking about gas stoves, gas stoves.

01:47:51.440 It's so stupid.

01:47:52.480 New York City is moving to snuff out gas stoves.

01:47:56.620 New York becoming the first state to ban natural gas and other fossil fuels in most new buildings, including gas stoves.

01:48:03.300 The new law requires all electric heating and cooking in new buildings shorter than seven stories by 2026.

01:48:09.120 Governor Kathy Hochul and the Democratic-controlled state legislature approved a bill on Tuesday prohibiting the use of fossil fuels for heating and cooking.

01:48:17.440 The law is the first statewide ban in the nation and goes into effect in 2026 for buildings under seven stories.

01:48:25.900 Like a house would be a building under seven stories normally.

01:48:29.640 My house is eight, but some people have seven-story houses or smaller even.

01:48:35.020 Some people only have five stories in their house.

01:48:36.920 Yeah.

01:48:37.260 I've heard that.

01:48:38.340 I haven't obviously seen one, but I've heard that.

01:48:42.460 This is incredible.

01:48:43.700 And the speed of this, I think, is what's most amazing.

01:48:48.200 Like it used to be, I remember listening to Rush Limbaugh in like the, you know, I don't know, mid-90s.

01:48:55.620 And he was talking about how he thought that, you know, mark my words, they're going to come after your SUVs.

01:49:03.480 They're going to start saying global warming is this thing.

01:49:06.000 And they're going to try to change your cars and get rid of the combustion engine.

01:49:09.680 He was doing that in the early 90s.

01:49:10.480 And I remember listening to that thinking, come on.

01:49:13.300 I know.

01:49:14.480 What are they, we're going to take cars away from Americans? 0.97

01:49:17.420 Like it just didn't seem possible.

01:49:18.880 And again, I was young and naive at the time, you know, to be clear.

01:49:23.840 He was obviously very right on that.

01:49:26.500 And, you know, but that took time, you know, I mean, electric cars, you know, we didn't really start seeing massive government subsidies for electric cars for decades.

01:49:37.860 I mean, this montage came from what, maybe two weeks ago, three weeks ago, a month at the most.

01:49:43.080 Yeah.

01:49:43.300 And then a month later.

01:49:44.160 And now already, New York has banned them.

01:49:47.040 Yeah.

01:49:47.640 In new buildings.

01:49:48.700 This is something the left likes to do.

01:49:51.200 You know, they like, there was a, there's something I was reading recently and it's related to the concept of stray voltage.

01:49:57.520 Do you remember this from the Obama era?

01:49:58.720 Um, it was a concept that they used internally to try to introduce into the public conversation ideas that were thought to be crazy, right?

01:50:11.500 You're never going to get something, no one's going to, even the left would reject us if we did this.

01:50:15.200 And the con, the way they did it was to float completely ridiculous things that were way outside the Overton window, right?

01:50:25.280 Way outside the conversation, the back and forth.

01:50:27.560 We're talking about electric cars.

01:50:28.600 Oh, we want gas power cars, blah, blah.

01:50:30.180 That's normal.

01:50:32.040 Gas stoves.

01:50:33.280 Like, no one was even talking about that.

01:50:35.280 And, you know, if you think about gas stoves to, to get, to sort of, you know, I don't know, boil down the preconceptions a month or two ago, you'd think of people who want gas stoves.

01:50:46.760 Typically, I would say typically they were on the left, right?

01:50:50.580 People who were foodies, you know, who really cared about what kind of, you know, way you were heating your food.

01:50:56.580 Now, if you love to cook, you probably prefer gas, but, like, that was kind of the, it was part of the food culture, the foodie culture.

01:51:03.400 A lot of that is left-wing, not exclusively, but a lot of it is.

01:51:07.100 And those are the people who are typically talking about high-end kitchens who want this specific way to, to heat, you know, to heat your food.

01:51:15.020 You know, I don't know.

01:51:16.220 The average American is, you know, making some spaghetti on a pot.

01:51:19.740 They don't care if it's electric or not, right?

01:51:21.760 Just so it heats up and boils the water.

01:51:23.440 So, I don't think, I think if anything, if there was a lean there, you'd think maybe it was even to the left.

01:51:29.680 So, what the concept of stray voltage was and these associated ideas is to take an idea that's way out of the conversation and intentionally introduce it in an extreme way that will make everyone go crazy, right?

01:51:44.340 So, you intentionally say the left might be banning gas stoves, way past what anyone would say is normal.

01:51:51.540 And what's the response to that?

01:51:53.440 And this is the key part.

01:51:55.160 Conservatives, like us, say, what the hell?

01:51:59.280 We told you these people were crazy.

01:52:01.080 They want to ban gas stoves.

01:52:03.180 And we go nuts.

01:52:04.740 And we say, look what the president's going to do.

01:52:06.800 Look what the left is going to do.

01:52:08.780 We raise our voices.

01:52:10.420 We throw our arms up.

01:52:11.600 We do all those things.

01:52:12.680 And then the left, who would normally maybe say, wait a minute, I'm not getting rid of my gas stove.

01:52:17.980 I love my gas stove.

01:52:19.360 They see the reaction from the right and automatically take the opposite side of it.

01:52:24.480 And that moves what was a 90-10 issue in favor of gas stoves into your typical political issue where it's 50-50 roughly.

01:52:35.540 So, they take something that's way out of the mainstream and turn it into a 50-50 issue, which is half of the work they need to do.

01:52:41.400 And they get it all done at once by just intentionally taking the hit of looking crazy for a couple days.

01:52:48.400 And in that period, they just say it's a conspiracy theory.

01:52:51.000 What are you talking about?

01:52:51.580 It's a conspiracy theory.

01:52:52.560 So, everyone on their side lines up and say, well, you know what, actually, just so you know, I mean, gas stoves are a real problem.

01:52:58.300 There was this one study one time that's obviously terribly designed, and don't look at it very closely, but it said that it was bad.

01:53:04.060 They did the same thing with partial birth abortion. 1.00

01:53:06.860 It was outrageous.

01:53:08.300 That never happens.

01:53:09.300 Yeah.

01:53:09.460 That doesn't happen.

01:53:11.080 Stop it.

01:53:11.780 And then the right started saying, well, yeah, it does happen.

01:53:16.180 And once is too much.

01:53:18.020 Can we stop?

01:53:19.160 Can we agree that when you're one inch from the birth canal, you're a baby, but when you're one inch out, you are, and then you're not when you're inside the birth canal.

01:53:31.360 Right.

01:53:31.560 I mean.

01:53:32.300 Seems like a basic request.

01:53:33.860 Yeah.

01:53:34.140 And we said it loudly and passionately, like we probably should, right?

01:53:37.480 And then Democrats just switched and they're like, oh, yeah, we'll, you should always be able to have an abortion whenever you want. 0.93

01:53:43.600 Yeah.

01:53:44.280 And I, you know, I, it's a real thing that I think the conservatives have to deal with because obviously it is, it is appropriate.

01:53:51.640 Complete.

01:53:51.900 I mean, drag queen story hours.

01:53:53.500 Another example of this.

01:53:54.860 I mean, no one was talking about drag queens to kids.

01:53:57.940 Nobody.

01:53:58.260 Five years ago.

01:53:59.020 Nope.

01:53:59.480 And all of a sudden it became this issue.

01:54:00.940 And nobody was talking about drag queens.

01:54:02.120 Yeah.

01:54:02.280 Five years ago.

01:54:02.960 No.

01:54:03.280 In fact, drag queens existed. 1.00

01:54:05.260 Yep.

01:54:05.460 They were out there.

01:54:06.120 They were doing their thing.

01:54:07.180 They were.

01:54:07.440 We didn't talk about it.

01:54:08.160 They were in clubs designed for adults and no one cared.

01:54:11.120 No one opposed it.

01:54:12.220 I mean, you know, you might not go engage in it.

01:54:14.400 It might not be your thing.

01:54:15.580 But like, honestly, have you ever heard a conservative say, you know what I'm really opposed to?

01:54:19.600 A drag queen in a bar for 21 and older. 0.99

01:54:22.700 No.

01:54:23.100 No.

01:54:23.380 I have not.

01:54:24.260 I have not heard word one of opposition to that.

01:54:27.360 And yet it's so far afield now that numerous actors, musicians, and comedians just participated in an online telethon called Drag Isn't Dangerous with actress Charlize Theron, who went so far as to say it's really in all seriousness.

01:54:50.620 There are so many things hurting and really killing our kids, and we all know what I'm talking about, and it ain't no drag queen. 1.00

01:54:58.880 Because if you've ever seen a drag queen lip sync for her life, it only makes you happier. 1.00

01:55:04.440 It only makes you love more.

01:55:06.340 It makes you a better person.

01:55:11.360 What?

01:55:12.160 That's how far it's gone the other direction.

01:55:14.700 Not only is drag, are drag shows not harmful to anybody, but they're actually good for you.

01:55:21.820 And I'd like to leave Charlize Theron out of this because I'm morally opposed to criticizing the star of Atomic Blonde.

01:55:28.880 But what I will say is that, you know, I think another example of this is transgender children.

01:55:34.480 Right?

01:55:34.620 Like, even, and we talked about a poll earlier, where still most of the left opposes these surgeries and treatments, quote unquote.

01:55:44.680 For surgery, it was 70% opposed.

01:55:46.200 70%.

01:55:47.060 So, of the left, it's probably a 50-50 issue, honestly, at this point.

01:55:51.020 But still, that used to be a 90-10 issue, the 95-5 issue.

01:55:55.380 Of course, you don't carve up children because they think they're the other gender.

01:56:00.020 What the hell are you talking about?

01:56:01.440 That's what that was, forever.

01:56:03.400 And then, they leaked into, it wasn't, they didn't go for a little bit.

01:56:07.640 They went for all of it.

01:56:09.060 They went for every little bit of it.

01:56:11.640 We're going to go after kids, and we're going to transition kids at five years old. 0.82

01:56:15.100 And, of course, what do we do?

01:56:17.300 Rightly, we stand up and say, absolutely not.

01:56:21.360 No.

01:56:22.340 That's crazy.

01:56:23.480 You're trying to screw with our kids.

01:56:25.220 We're going to protect our kids.

01:56:26.440 And then, what happens on the left?

01:56:28.540 They go from people who probably would have agreed at one point, but then they oppose us, right?

01:56:35.020 Because we're saying one thing, they have to take the opposite side.

01:56:38.200 And that pulls this agenda from a 5-95 issue to a 30-70 issue in weeks, in months.

01:56:47.240 Exactly right.

01:56:47.980 I mean, it really is.

01:56:49.560 And I don't know exactly how to disarm it yet, honestly.

01:56:52.320 I mean, we have to keep fighting.

01:56:53.700 We need to just ignore these things.

01:56:54.940 What are the numbers on keeping sexually explicit materials, books or magazines or whatever,

01:57:03.020 out of the hands of four, five, six, and seven-year-olds in schools?

01:57:07.120 What do you think the polling on that was a short while ago?

01:57:10.720 It had to be 98 to 2.

01:57:12.300 It had to be.

01:57:12.860 And now what is it?

01:57:14.180 You've got people saying, yeah, they're burning books.

01:57:16.460 They're burning books.

01:57:17.740 No.

01:57:18.320 We're keeping books out of the hands of children.

01:57:20.140 You can still get the book anytime you want.

01:57:22.540 Go get the book.

01:57:23.180 In fact, even at a store or a library, wherever adults are buying things, that's where you

01:57:30.000 can find it.

01:57:30.500 As you point out, adults are the ones buying them.

01:57:32.860 Kids can actually still even get them.

01:57:35.700 I mean, we're not even saying they can't get them.

01:57:37.620 We're just saying the parent has to actually buy them for them, not the school.

01:57:40.780 Right.

01:57:41.140 Again, I don't agree that parents should buy these books for kids, but they could.

01:57:46.360 I don't think that anyone would be able to stop them.

01:57:49.520 They could.

01:57:49.900 But so this is a massive, massive problem right now with our discourse.

01:57:56.720 And it's the way the left moves the ball constantly on these social issues.

01:58:00.480 They're good at it.

01:58:01.140 I mean, they thought this out well and they predict, they can predict what we're going

01:58:05.720 to do.

01:58:06.560 And I'm not willing to change what I'm going to do.

01:58:08.760 I'm not going to sit here and go, oh, well, I'm going to ignore it because that'll get

01:58:10.920 back at them.

01:58:11.380 No, I'm not going to ignore it.

01:58:12.640 We have to draw lines.

01:58:14.340 And I do think that some of these issues have been more stingy to move.

01:58:21.380 I mean, difficult.

01:58:22.700 Right.

01:58:22.860 Like they're trying to move this on like, you know, women sports and men playing and

01:58:29.140 they're saying they're trans.

01:58:30.020 And it's like American people like largely have said no to that so far.

01:58:34.520 So far.

01:58:35.100 Yeah, they have.

01:58:35.660 Um, and that might be because there was such a movement to protect women and there rightly 0.92

01:58:42.460 should be.

01:58:43.200 Yep.

01:58:43.440 Yeah.

01:58:43.720 And you guys passed title nine 50 years ago for a reason to protect women sports. 0.99

01:58:50.700 So what happened to that?

01:58:52.180 And a large contingency of the people who care about that are still in the Democratic Party.

01:58:55.700 I mean, I think that's partially what you're seeing with the big poll numbers for RFK Jr.

01:59:00.240 Like he represents us in some ways an older school Democrat.

01:59:04.880 Democrat, right?

01:59:05.900 A person who would be opposed to the Ukraine war, right?

01:59:09.100 Like that's, that's what the Democrats would always say.

01:59:11.260 Like, right.

01:59:11.660 It would always be like, oh, we're the ones worried about communism and Russia.

01:59:14.780 And, and, you know, that's why we're on Ukraine side.

01:59:17.280 And then they would be like, now they've just changed to hawks.

01:59:20.600 And all of a sudden they're skeptical of Russia and all these things they never were.

01:59:24.900 There's a lot of people still left in the Democratic Party who are like, wait a minute,

01:59:27.660 I don't want war.

01:59:28.800 I don't want to be funding a war.

01:59:30.320 What party is this?

01:59:31.520 And they're seeing what Biden's doing and running from it to really anyone who will

01:59:37.380 oppose it.

01:59:38.140 And RFK Jr.

01:59:39.100 Is the only one there.

01:59:40.440 You know, he's interesting.

01:59:41.760 Yeah.

01:59:42.080 Of course, he's also got the Kennedy name, which helps.

01:59:44.420 Triple eight, seven, two, seven.

01:59:45.660 Beck, more coming up.

01:59:46.680 I don't know about you, but I tend to think that I can immediately tell quality work when

01:59:52.160 I see it.

01:59:52.840 You know, you think about buying and selling houses.

01:59:55.300 What does it take to become a real estate agent these days?

01:59:57.340 You know, you get to pass a test.

01:59:58.340 They slap a credential on you.

01:59:59.980 Well, you need more than that.

02:00:01.700 And that's why realestateagentsitrust.com exists.

02:00:05.080 They screen these agents in advance.

02:00:07.200 Your biggest purchase is on the line, a life-changing purchase perhaps, or a sale.

02:00:11.900 And you're going with someone you clicked on on the internet?

02:00:14.900 Well, if you click that on a realestateagentsitrust.com, that's going to work for you.

02:00:19.840 Not just some crazy ad.

02:00:21.560 I'm talking about a place where they go and they take a long time sorting through real

02:00:25.280 estate agents for performance, for personality, for everything.

02:00:29.240 Can you trust somebody who is a real estate agent?

02:00:31.580 Well, you can find the person you can trust at realestateagentsitrust.com.

02:00:35.280 The name kind of says it all.

02:00:37.000 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

02:00:38.020 Go there now, whether you're buying or selling.

02:00:40.940 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

02:00:42.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

02:01:01.560 Welcome back.

02:01:02.300 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn.

02:01:03.840 We hope he's back tomorrow.

02:01:06.040 I want to tell you to make sure you subscribe over at youtube.com slash StuDoesAmerica.

02:01:09.900 Do a show, of course, every night, 8 p.m.

02:01:11.940 Eastern.

02:01:12.260 If you happen to have a show, a network that canceled your favorite 8 p.m.

02:01:17.080 Eastern show and you're looking for something to watch at 8 p.m.

02:01:20.120 Eastern, make it StuDoesAmerica. 0.99

02:01:23.280 We would appreciate that, of course.

02:01:25.020 It's a good idea.

02:01:25.800 It is available on BlazeTV, blazetv.com slash Glenn.

02:01:28.980 Also, in just a few minutes, I'm going to be on the podcast with Megan Kelly.

02:01:33.080 She is a big podcast.

02:01:35.020 I think it's the number two podcast in all of the news right now.

02:01:38.520 And I'm going to be, I mean, obviously, it was in anticipation of my appearance today,

02:01:44.660 which is why it's so high.

02:01:45.980 I'm pretty sure.

02:01:47.380 They've been anticipating it for like a year or two?

02:01:50.360 Yeah.

02:01:50.940 Look, I've been on it a couple times.

02:01:52.400 So I'm really, it's really, I am actually the number two podcast.

02:01:55.140 That's the way I look at it.

02:01:56.000 But anyway, I'll be on with Megan here in just a little bit,

02:01:58.140 talking about the news of the day as well.

02:02:00.920 Make sure to check that out if you listen to her podcast, which you should.

02:02:04.720 But if I may just say, young man, there's a place you can go.

02:02:12.180 I said, young man, when you're short on your dough, you can stay there.

02:02:20.540 And I'm sure you will find many ways to have a good time.

02:02:27.880 What I'm talking about, Stu, is it's fun to stay at the YMCA.

02:02:33.260 I will say, until you said the words like that,

02:02:35.780 I didn't realize how creepy the song actually is.

02:02:38.540 It is kind of creepy.

02:02:39.900 Yeah, okay.

02:02:40.880 But a fun little incident at the YMCA,

02:02:44.880 an Ohio man was just charged earlier this year

02:02:47.280 for exposing himself to multiple women in one instance

02:02:51.320 with little girls present.

02:02:54.960 However, he was let go by the judge with no penalty,

02:02:59.500 no consequences, no jail time, no fine,

02:03:01.920 because when he exposed himself,

02:03:05.660 he's so fat that you couldn't see his genitalia clearly.

02:03:10.780 Oh.

02:03:11.400 Okay, so yeah.

02:03:12.600 Wow.

02:03:13.160 If you're really super fat, I guess it's okay.

02:03:15.520 Hey, honey, I'm not going to jail.

02:03:16.940 Really? Yeah.

02:03:17.780 Yeah, because I was so fat.

02:03:21.220 I don't know if you feel good about that at the end of the day.

02:03:23.200 No.

02:03:23.980 No, comp.

02:03:24.480 No.

02:03:25.160 No.

02:03:25.880 No.

02:03:26.760 No.

02:03:27.080 No.

02:03:27.360 No.

02:03:27.440 No.

02:03:27.620 No.

02:03:27.780 No.

02:03:27.940 No.

02:03:28.780 No.

02:03:29.240 No.
