Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.
00:00:04.640
She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column
00:00:10.960
Good thing Claudia is with Intact, the insurer with the largest network
00:00:18.320
and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.
00:00:20.720
I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.
00:00:44.080
Something what is happening on something happening?
00:00:53.680
Somebody pushed a button that shouldn't have been pushed.
00:01:01.440
No, somebody else came in here and pushed that button.
00:01:04.160
That was, I want everybody to know that was not me.
00:01:12.000
BJ, the producer, is accusing me of actually pushing a button
00:01:26.000

With Matt Gray, Jeff Fisher for Glenn and Stu today.
00:03:32.680
Hey, they had the National Day of Prayer yesterday.
00:04:00.440
But first, if you're buying or selling a home, you know, that's one of the most emotional
00:04:06.680
One of the most stressful things you'll ever do.
00:04:13.540
And when the stakes are that high, you don't want just any agent.
00:04:17.140
You want someone who actually knows what they're doing and actually cares about getting it right.
00:04:21.320
That's where Real Estate Agents I Trust comes in.
00:04:24.240
This is a network Glenn started years ago, and it pairs you with the top real estate agents in the country.
00:04:29.500
People who've been thoroughly vetted, who know what they're doing.
00:04:32.920
They've got strong track records of success, and they get results.
00:04:37.560
But even more than that, they're people who share your values.
00:04:41.520
You're not just a name on a spreadsheet to them.
00:04:43.780
You're a human being with a dream and a deadline.
00:04:46.480
So whether you're looking to buy your first home or to sell your last one or move across the country,
00:04:51.900
whatever it is, Real Estate Agents I Trust can connect you with someone who will fight for you
00:05:11.260
Okay, so yesterday was the National Day of Prayer.
00:05:22.200
They had the prayer breakfast outside, but it wasn't the—
00:05:28.640
Plus, Trump hasn't domed that yet, so he's getting ready to dome the—
00:05:56.780
They talked about putting in a stage concrete, and then they're going to have these giant tents
00:06:04.540
It'll be open unless they have an event, and then they'll bring the tents and stuff.
00:06:17.160
NFL stadiums definitely need to be dome, but that's another subject.
00:06:24.300
Dr. Phil was at the White House yesterday, and he was very complimentary of the president.
00:06:29.480
Mr. President, I can't tell you, first off, how proud I am to see religion coming back
00:06:42.320
And let me tell you, it's not a popular thing to do in America right now.
00:06:47.500
And Speaker Johnson is here, and you know he's a man of religion.
00:06:53.020
But, you know, I've sat with President Trump with no cameras around, nobody listening, nobody
00:06:59.940
And I'm telling you, this is a man of deep faith, a man of deep conviction.
00:07:05.480
And this is a man that wants this country to have a heart and have religion.
00:07:13.040
And God bless America for giving us President Donald Trump.
00:07:16.960
And when nobody's listening and nobody's looking, this man cares about every single person in
00:07:24.420
America, independent of race, color, creed, whatever.
00:07:37.080
And, you know, what's interesting about that is Dr. Phil's not the only one who has said
00:07:44.220
You know, Glenn has certainly said those kinds of things about pretty much everybody who
00:07:56.360
Bill Maher said that, you know, he didn't didn't do this for the cameras.
00:08:00.160
He didn't do this because, you know, he's trying to impress me.
00:08:07.020
And he even impressed Bill Maher that way because he is.
00:08:19.120
In a letter to wife, Abigail, John Adams wrote of his first national day of prayer.
00:08:25.720
Millions will be upon their knees at once before their great creator, imploring his forgiveness
00:08:31.640
and blessing and asking for his favor on the American cause.
00:08:36.720
Today, more than two and a half centuries later, in the heart of a free and proud America,
00:08:47.120
And I think God answered other prayers because he's put in an administration to run this country
00:09:04.580
So as we bow our heads in this beautiful day, once again, we have to trust our God because
00:09:12.820
our God knows exactly where we're going, what we're doing, knows every inch of our life.
00:09:20.620
And may he continue to hear our prayers to guide our steps and build up our beloved nation
00:09:29.920
We're in the process of doing some great things.
00:09:32.480
I get criticized no matter what, but that's for sure.
00:09:35.620
I just go forward because everyone knows we're right.
00:09:38.720
All we're doing is what they've done to us for 40 years, but we're doing it bigger and
00:09:54.640
They won't admit it, maybe some of them, but they know it's right.
00:10:06.140
And I wish they would, but they're not going to.
00:10:08.100
Also yesterday, we had so many members of this cabinet that were out speaking and doing
00:10:16.080
I mean, we got to get to the Stephen Miller stuff, too.
00:10:18.680
But yesterday, Tulsi Gabbard was on Megyn Kelly's show, and she talked about the new Ukraine
00:10:28.920
You know, this deal was very important to the president to get done.
00:10:34.820
A lot of work went into getting this deal signed today because he values the fact that
00:10:42.240
as he talked about earlier in the cabinet meeting today about how the American taxpayer
00:10:46.860
has provided overall, when you look at all of the aid that's been given to Ukraine since
00:10:56.020
And when you look at some of the deals that some of the other European countries made with
00:11:01.260
A, either they used frozen Russian money, so they weren't using their taxpayer dollars,
00:11:08.440
and they found a way to give them, you know, frozen money from Russian funds.
00:11:12.580
And in other areas, they said, okay, we'll loan you this money, and we'll figure out a
00:11:28.040
So President Trump understood that, was very, very, very bothered by it, that the American
00:11:33.960
people are just out of pocket on this without any means of any kind of repayment whatsoever.
00:11:42.780
And so this minerals deal is a way for the American people to get some form of, not return, but some kind of a repayment based on the taxpayer dollars that have been expended
00:11:55.000
and used to pay for someone else's government to be run, to pay for someone else's infrastructure, even outside of all of the weapons system.
00:12:02.840
Well, we still have communities here who have failing infrastructure, who have poisonous water, who have people still in Western North Carolina who are homeless and don't have the basic needs that they have.
00:12:17.600
And so this deal, yes, of course, he wouldn't have made the deal if they don't have these rare earthen minerals that still need to be mined.
00:12:30.520
He's not going to go and make a blind deal based on just a handshake.
00:12:34.740
And so this is a win for the American people, and it's a win for the Ukrainian people, because this joint partnership is something that is mutually beneficial for the people of both of our countries.
00:12:45.020
So keep that figure in mind, the $350 billion that we have poured into that country in both cash and weaponry.
00:12:59.220
So, wow, they must be really grateful for that, right?
00:13:02.640
Because we have kept that country sovereign, a sovereign nation.
00:13:08.280
We have stopped Russia from just overrunning Ukraine.
00:13:18.460
There was some Ukrainians that were speaking about it.
00:13:25.640
As the U.S. and Kyiv hammer out a mineral deal, Ukrainians from the mining heartlands have a message for Washington.
00:13:34.300
Alexander is a resident of Krivy Rih, a city near iron ore mining and processing plants.
00:13:40.060
From what I can see, they only want to take, not to give.
00:13:44.540
U.S. President Donald Trump has put pressure on Kyiv and threatened to stop the flow of military supplies.
00:13:50.100
Unless the U.S. gets some payback for the billions of dollars it spends in aid.
00:13:56.400
They would like to, but you cannot have dealings with that ginger guy.
00:14:06.420
About 40 miles north is the town of Shovtiewody, or Yellow Waters, where uranium and iron ore were mined for decades.
00:14:13.660
Ukraine has a proud history of mining coal and iron ore, and hopes to exploit seams of increasingly sought-after rare earths.
00:14:22.880
I hope that the people who are involved in this think about Ukraine and its people.
00:14:33.560
Because our mineral riches belong to the people.
00:14:41.720
Mineral revenues are a crucial pillar of the state budget.
00:14:45.400
President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday the negotiations on creating a mineral revenue fund had made progress.
00:14:51.320
Zelensky knows he must win Trump over after a difficult relationship so far.
00:14:56.480
But that there will be uproar at home if he makes a bad deal.
00:14:59.800
Ukraine said on Sunday there was now agreement that the deal would not seek to pay for U.S. aid provided to Kiev in the past.
00:15:06.500
Ukrainian legislator Ina Sovson said negotiators had to consider future generations.
00:15:11.720
It's also critically important when we are designing the future to keep in mind that people will live here in the future.
00:15:20.680
And we have to make sure that there are some economic prospects for this country as well.
00:15:25.600
Well, you want to make sure there's not Russian troops that are watching every movement you make,
00:15:30.100
that are occupying every city you live in, that are controlling everything you do as well.
00:15:44.800
What about the $350 billion that we have sent to you?
00:15:51.640
I mean, we were giving the money left and right.
00:16:04.780
Here's another $400 billion just to tide you over a little bit.
00:16:08.620
It was like twice a week for a while we were talking about these expenditures to Ukraine.
00:16:16.620
Congress would pass a bill for $50 billion here, $6 billion there.
00:16:21.480
And then Biden was sending another $400 billion, like you mentioned, $400 million here and another $300 million there.
00:16:28.820
And you didn't even notice the $300 million because the rest of the figures were so large.
00:16:33.800
It just seemed like we were sending them nothing.
00:16:36.040
No, Joe stopped by the ATM on the way to the Oval.
00:16:38.800
Picked up a quick $400 million, sent it to Ukraine.
00:16:46.820
And I would like to believe that the translator is the one that's saying those things.
00:17:04.380
You know, when war breaks out, when sirens wail, when elderly Jewish survivors are huddled in stairwells and children are rushed into bomb shelters, there's one group that's already there.
00:17:20.500
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, they don't wait for the dust to settle.
00:17:25.000
They bring food, water, medicine, and comfort right into the heart of the crisis.
00:17:33.300
Terror attacks, rocket fire, displaced families.
00:17:44.220
Every gift you give is a lifeline for someone who may have no one else.
00:17:48.560
Someone who still bears the scars of past horrors and now faces a new kind of threat.
00:17:53.540
When you support the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, you're not just giving aid.
00:17:58.780
You're doing that, but you're also doing so much more as well.
00:18:02.900
You're showing up in the middle of the chaos and you're saying you're not alone.
00:18:07.160
Show your support for Israel by making a life-saving gift today.
00:18:39.600
There's obnoxious eagles flying all over the place this week.
00:18:48.740
I mean, she was talking about the Ukraine minerals deal, which is really huge for us.
00:18:54.680
She also discussed U.S. funding of gain-of-function research.
00:19:03.060
And I don't think we paid nearly enough attention to it, especially since COVID-19 happened.
00:19:17.680
The thing that we are working with Jay Bhattacharya, the new NIH director on, with, as well as Secretary Kennedy,
00:19:27.120
is looking at the gain-of-function research that, in the case of the Wuhan lab,
00:19:34.940
as well as many of these other bio labs around the world, was actually U.S. funded.
00:19:41.140
And leads to this dangerous kind of research that, in many examples, has resulted in either a pandemic
00:19:52.480
Well, let me ask you specifically, because we already know that EcoHealth Alliance was partnering with this Wuhan lab
00:20:00.040
We just have never been able to have somebody say,
00:20:02.620
and it was that exact experiment that led to this COVID bug.
00:20:08.700
What's the new thing that you're digging in on?
00:20:10.700
We are working on that with Jay Bhattacharya, and look forward to being able to share that.
00:20:20.280
Between the gain-of-function research and what we saw with COVID-19.
00:20:23.820
I mean, that would be extraordinary, because just so the audience knows,
00:20:26.060
if that's true, if it was Peter Daszak's research with the Wuhan so-called Bat Lady that caused this pandemic,
00:20:36.280
The thing that he denied over and over and over
00:20:45.520
So is it any wonder that he sought a preemptive pardon for anything during a certain period of time
00:20:55.880
And then strong-armed and smeared people like Dr. Jay Bhattacharya,
00:21:07.400
And the reason why this is so important is not just what happened in the past.
00:21:11.860
It's because this gain-of-function research is happening in biolabs around the world.
00:21:19.460
we've probably talked about it on your show before,
00:21:21.660
when I warned against U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine
00:21:25.380
when the Russia-Ukraine war kicked off for this very reason.
00:21:29.380
Who knows what kinds of pathogens are in these labs,
00:21:32.520
and if released, could create another COVID-like pandemic.
00:21:38.960
You're, you know, trumpeting Putin's talking points.
00:21:44.080
simply for speaking the truth and stating facts,
00:21:46.900
that by the way are still on U.S. Embassy Ukraine's website today,
00:21:50.620
about how the U.S. has funded these biolabs in Ukraine.
00:21:57.160
in order to prevent another COVID-like pandemic
00:22:00.420
or another major health incident that could affect us in the world,
00:22:08.720
and provide the evidence that shows exactly why
00:22:23.020
any organism can acquire a new ability or a new property
00:22:46.100
be able to jump from animals to humans and vice versa.
00:22:52.080
I mean, they, oh, I think it was Obama that made Fauci stop.
00:22:58.320
He just started funding, sending money to other people.
00:23:05.240
Other labs that were using the money to do gain-of-function.
00:23:32.400
Because, you know, somehow COVID-19 got out of the lab and infected millions of people
00:23:41.340
And maybe it happened with something much more deadly.
00:24:08.200
And if you're not playing prize picks yet, you're missing out on half the fun.

00:46:11.360
Almost called you Stu, which would have been quite a compliment, but now it would not have.
00:46:34.140
We'll get into the Stephen Miller stuff and what he had to say to the media on immigration.
00:46:43.120
You know, most people don't find out they've been a victim of identity theft until it's too late.
00:46:55.840
And it's not always some hacker in a basement either.
00:47:02.400
Using your information in ways you've never imagined.
00:47:09.320
They keep watch over your identity in ways you couldn't do on your own.
00:47:13.760
If they detect suspicious activity, you get an alert.
00:47:17.480
And if your identity is ever stolen, they have a whole team of U.S.-based restoration specialists who will work to fix it.
00:47:27.940
Your personal information is everywhere all the time.

All right, so Stephen Miller, who is the Deputy Chief of Staff for President Trump, taking on media and reporters pretty much every day.
00:48:10.420
He laid into the media yesterday on the way they've been covering the Trump administration's attempts to get immigration under control.
00:48:17.960
It is a sad reflection on the state of our media and many of the outlets represented in this room that you obsessively try to shill for this MS-13 terrorist.
00:48:31.380
Well, no coverage occurred in your papers about any of the Americans that were raped and tortured and murdered by the illegals that Biden was importing into our country.
00:48:44.600
The Biden administration made the decision to give extensive due process to two trained de Uruguay terrorists that were apprehended at the border just a couple years ago.
00:49:02.840
The Biden administration and Border Patrol apprehended them and made the decision to provide them with extensive due process,
00:49:10.360
put them onto a program known as supervised release, and put them on ankle monitors so that they could go through a lengthy, legal, judicial determination as to whether these legal aliens who had just set foot on U.S. soil
00:49:24.180
might want to live in the United States for the rest of their lives.
00:49:30.100
What was the result of that choice that was made?
00:49:31.840
Those two men kidnapped a young girl named Jocelyn Nungary from her family.
00:49:47.260
That is what the Biden administration's policy was.
00:49:50.640
Most of your papers never covered her story when it happened.
00:49:53.580
To the extent that you covered it at all, it was because President Trump forced you to cover it by highlighting it repeatedly over and over again.
00:50:05.960
And each and every one of you that sides over and over again with these MS-13 terrorists, to the extent that you had the financial means to do so,
00:50:13.360
you all choose to live in condos or homes or houses as far away from these kinds of gangbangers as you possibly can.
00:50:20.320
If I offered any one of you a rent-free home with no taxes to pay in any of these gang neighborhoods,
00:50:26.680
and I said your neighbors are MS-13 terrorists or Mexican mafia or Sinaloa cartel or Tren de Uruguay,
00:50:35.060
But yet you, with your coverage, are trying to force innocent Americans to have these people as their neighbors
00:50:40.400
and that one day their daughter may be abducted from their home and raped and murdered.
00:50:45.000
So you're not going to get an ounce of sympathy from this administration or President Trump
00:50:48.700
for the terrorists who've invaded our homes and our country.
00:51:04.340
But what they keep coming back to is Maryland man.
00:51:11.260
And the only thing he did wrong, I guess, was getting a tattoo.
00:51:17.800
And that's why he's in prison in El Salvador right now.
00:51:33.400
He's pulled over in Tennessee with a whole carload of people in the van with him.
00:51:53.080
And he did not have, you know, I think we've cleared this part up.
00:51:58.500
He didn't have the M and the S and the 1 and the 3 on his knuckles.
00:52:01.960
But what he had was the marijuana plant, the smiley face.
00:52:19.320
I don't know why, but that's what they say it is.
00:52:26.880
he's had some fairly weird encounters with law enforcement.
00:52:36.940
Back in Tennessee in 2022, he gets pulled over by Highway Patrol.
00:52:45.500
Yeah, your driver's license, your registration, and your insurance.
00:52:58.860
The problem with my license, right now, it's suspended, right?
00:53:17.440
I feel like if you know you don't have something.
00:53:42.420
So, right now, I'm waiting for the paper for immigration before I go to the NBA.
00:53:51.240
Okay, now he's just told us he's illegally here.
00:53:53.700
He's got to go to immigration and work that out.
00:53:57.680
I thought he was going to play for the National Basketball Association.
00:54:52.180
He has no proof of insurance and it's not his car.
00:55:32.300
I have no proof of insurance and this isn't my car I'm driving with eight people in it.
00:55:44.420
Pay good attention to the lady sitting in the riders.
00:55:56.740
And she's doing everything in her power to be invisible.
00:56:59.380
So I go back, everybody's going back to the house.
00:58:41.700
I've never seen one with that many seats in it.
00:58:54.020
Eventually, the officer walks back to his car and another cop approaches him and he says,
00:59:02.920
They called in the drug sniffing dogs and the drug, you know, his fellow officers.
00:59:16.260
You've got a guy who's smuggling illegal aliens into the country.
00:59:24.360
And sometimes they do both, but they usually don't get a drug hit on these people.
00:59:29.480
I mean, so one of the cops knows exactly what's happening here.
00:59:38.260
And you've got eight people in the vehicle with an extra row of seats that was placed
00:59:59.060
They called the FBI, said, hey, we got this guy.
01:00:14.340
This whole thing happened in about an hour and a half to two hours.
01:00:59.220
If the FBI, you know, once they did that, then the FBI would say, let them go anyway.
01:01:13.680
You don't carry a fire extinguisher because you plan on starting a fire.
01:01:18.260
You carry it because if something ever sparks, you want to be ready.
01:01:22.720
That's exactly how the Berna Compact Launcher works.
01:01:27.100
It's a non-lethal self-defense tool that gives you real stopping power without the legal
01:01:35.920
It's small enough to carry discreetly, and it's light enough to go anywhere and powerful
01:01:51.020
So whether you're walking to your car late at night, hiking with your family, traveling
01:01:55.360
alone, or just answering a knock at the door, the Berna Compact gives you an edge when seconds
01:02:02.640
It's the kind of tool you hope you'll never need, but the minute you do, you'll be glad
01:02:08.740
The Compact Launcher is especially great for carrying in something like a purse.

An Oregon middle school teacher was awarded a massive payout.
01:02:52.100
It was something like $301,000, I think, after she won a lawsuit alleging that her students
01:03:01.280
Susan Bartley, 46-year-old teacher, sued the Portland Public Schools in 2023.
01:03:08.080
She claimed she got abuse from her students, and it began in the fall of 2021, continued
01:03:16.600
The teacher's lawyers allegedly provided more than 250 pages of emails, letters, declarations,
01:03:24.780
and excerpts from depositions to show that she was, in fact, harassed.
01:03:30.000
The Oregonian reported that an 8th grade boy allegedly demanded during a class that Barton, or Bartley,
01:03:39.300
referred to him by his new pronouns, which were reportedly a sexually explicit term.
01:03:52.440
Bartley allegedly confronted a student for using his cell phone during the class,
01:03:56.280
and the boy reportedly stuffed the phone down his pants and told her to come grab it.
01:04:06.240
Can you imagine treating a teacher like this when we were in school?
01:04:20.940
There was a number of teachers that didn't necessarily like me.
01:04:29.100
I mean, not even the douchiest of douchebags at my school would have tried something like this.
01:04:36.320
I mean, there's no way you're getting away with that.
01:04:48.160
The lawsuit alleged that a group of seventh grade boys surrounded her outside the Kellogg
01:04:57.920
And she said the boys recorded video of her buttocks with a cell phone and just said, you
01:05:18.360
Well, I bet some of the emails that you're talking about are probably her emails to the
01:05:23.880
school system, to the principal maybe complaining about this.
01:05:28.620
And they did nothing about it would be my guess.
01:05:35.640
I mean, I'm surprised it didn't go along, you know, some of the families of these students.
01:05:47.700
I think mom and dad need to fork over a couple of bucks, too.
01:05:57.460
She told the Oregonian, I continued to say, we need to address this head on.
01:06:07.040
When there were no consequences for the boys, they started harassing not just me, but the
01:06:19.140
So, I don't know if this is going on in a lot of school districts, but, you know, it's
01:06:30.000
I mean, somebody would have put the hammer down on anybody doing this back in...
01:06:37.880
Well, I mean, yours was obviously a lot longer than mine.
01:06:41.840
But back in your day, you know, maybe the coach comes along and straightens a couple of
01:06:55.080
What do you give the mom who gave you everything?
01:06:58.220
This Mother's Day, give her the gift of a lifetime.

And Jeffy has the fat five big stories for us today.
01:08:36.220
Horse racing's Triple Crown season begins tomorrow with the Kentucky Derby.
01:08:49.620
Now that guy, Steve Buddleman, has done that 29 other times.
01:08:53.760
So if you see him out there tomorrow, number 30 for him.
01:09:02.700
There's 23-year-olds competing for the 1.25-mile race.
01:09:29.740
And then the longest shot is this Neil Quiss that is 57-to-1.
01:09:36.640
And then there's another one 50-to-1, this Baeza, B-A-E-Z-A, however they pronounce it.
01:09:51.000
So it's the oldest continuously held sporting event.
01:09:54.000
And the first leg, obviously, of the Triple Crown.
01:10:12.780
But I will tell you, we did our show from the infield of Preakness.
01:10:20.060
There were a couple of people that were slightly inebriated.
01:10:35.360
He actually didn't, you know, contrary to popular belief, did not drink while on the air.
01:10:52.320
I mean, I know spring is in the air, and it's a celebration tomorrow, this weekend, but
01:10:57.580
it's Naked Gardening Day, and you need to get out there and celebrate.
01:11:03.760
Lawn Starter dug into the data to uncover the best cities in the United States for naked
01:11:10.040
And they analyzed 500 biggest U.S. cities using metrics like nudist populations, public
01:11:18.420
nudity laws, Google search interest, and even the forecast for World Naked Gardening Day.
01:11:48.080
And the number 1 city where you can be sure we're going to see all kinds of pictures of
01:11:53.620
naked gardening coming from their Instagram accounts.
01:12:01.660
Or where it's warm enough to actually garden naked?
01:12:08.720
You're doing a little naked gardening and celebrating Naked Gardening Day.
01:12:16.240
Just hashtag it, naked gardening, and I'm sure it will show up on your feed.
01:12:25.880
So there's probably not going to be a lot of naked gardening.
01:12:54.000
Well over 100 cities on the list for naked gardening.
01:13:15.700
I don't necessarily always celebrate on the actual holiday.
01:13:22.340
Who doesn't want to be out there pulling weeds naked?
01:13:46.480
Good rule of thumb here is wash them before you wear them.
01:13:50.580
I know you, like me, Pat, like to shop at thrift stores.
01:13:57.980
A helpful tip is to wash your newly bought clothes before wearing them, especially if they're
01:14:07.480
Now, they're telling you to wash your clothes, you know, even if they're brand new, for sure.
01:14:11.060
But especially when they come from a thrift store, you need to wash them right away.
01:14:15.400
And apparently, this TikToker, one never twoo one, preferred only to be referred to by a social media name, contracted a skin infection that he's blaming on the never washed thrift clothes.
01:14:30.020
He explained in his video that he contracted molluscum contagionism, a viral skin infection that consists of small raised bumps on the skin.
01:14:52.240
They just go away in, like, six months to two years.
01:15:01.940
They claim here that the skin disease has often spread through skin-to-skin or sexual contact.
01:15:08.540
The TikToker blames it on unwashed thrifted clothes.
01:15:15.600
The content – let's see, this Francis Kozen, a Cornell University senior lecturer in fiber science and apparel design.
01:15:28.900
Garments often are treated with a fabric softener, a stain-resistant or water-repellent coating, or an anti-mildew agent that can cause irritation, redness, or itching.
01:15:41.100
So, according to the Mayo Clinic, you don't want – that itchy, scaly, contagious ringworm, you don't want that.
01:15:49.220
And that spreads through clothing, towels, bedding.
01:15:57.700
Most importantly, it's coming from a thrift store, but even new stuff, you need to – you need to please wash them before you wear them.
01:16:06.040

So, Florida has a new bill out that could impact drinking water, and it's headed to Governor DeSantis' desk for his signature.
01:16:22.240
State lawmakers voted for a bill that would prohibit local governments from adding fluoride to the water.
01:16:28.240
Supporters, of course, argue that the government should not decide whether fluoride is added to the water.
01:16:32.260
And opponents' measure say it's going to – if they take it away, people are going to get more cavities.
01:16:38.540
And fluoridation has been one of the most effective and affordable public health measures in American history.
01:16:43.880
This bill takes a safe and proven and affordable public health tool and rips it away.
01:16:52.440
And according to some of the state representatives, it's not about fluoride.
01:17:00.860
But fluoride is used in 29 counties in Florida.
01:17:06.340
And DeSantis, you know, I don't know that he'll sign this bill because it's part of a bigger bill.
01:17:12.200
I mean, he wants the counties to stop using fluoride.
01:17:15.500
But as usual, it's not – the bill isn't just that.
01:17:19.040
It's in this – they've got it in this giant Florida farm bill, which has a whole bunch of other stuff in it.
01:17:25.140
And so we'll see if he actually will sign this bill.
01:17:30.060
I love the one Florida representative who said one of the things that they talk about in this bill would be that it would prevent labeling plant-based products as milk or meat.
01:17:43.000
But only if a number of other southern states also pass such legislation and they're talking about mislabeling and it's just another bogged down, you know, government bill.
01:17:53.820
And people are all upset and saying that I'm not confused whether it's almond milk or an impossible burger.
01:18:02.560
We don't need to have this kind of ruling over private companies.
01:18:10.160
So we'll see if DeSantis – if he signs the bill, it goes into effect July 1st.
01:18:13.920
Now, if they pass this, Florida becomes the second state after Utah to restrict fluoridation to their water.
01:18:23.440
I think you should be able to choose whether or not –
01:18:27.160
You should be able to choose whether or not fluoride is in your water.
01:18:44.320
I mean, you've got fluoride in your toothpaste if you want it.
01:18:50.000
Just ripping it away from people that's not in the water.
01:19:06.040
A Minecraft movie – has been in theaters – what, this is the fifth week, I think?
01:19:10.940
Made north of $380 million domestically and north of $816 million globally.
01:19:21.260
So the chicken jockey scene isn't only a chicken-centric moment from a Minecraft movie causing a sensation.
01:19:28.000
Jack Black's musical ode to the impossible-to-prepare-in-real-life dish Lava Chicken has made it into Billboard's Hot 100 chart at number 78.
01:19:39.180
The song Steve's Lava Chicken has been featured in 280,000-plus TikTok videos, streamed almost 22 million times on Spotify.
01:19:51.520
And according to Jason Momoa in the movie, it sucks butt, but it doesn't suck butt in real life.
01:19:57.800
It's 34 seconds long, which makes it the shortest song ever to make it onto Billboard's 67-year-old hot list.
01:20:04.580
And it's not the first song from a video game or movie to chart, and it's not Jack Black's first silly song.
01:20:11.140
Because his song Peaches, sung by the lovesick Bowser in the Super Mario Brothers, reached number 58 a couple years ago of the Hot 100.
01:20:21.940
So you're not the only people hearing the song in your feeds, in your TikTok feed.
01:20:34.360
I saw some Minecraft stuff in the house, because they love Minecraft.
01:20:42.740
But you didn't hear if it was obnoxious or not in your theater?
01:20:47.300
I didn't hear if they were obnoxious, because people were getting wound up.
01:20:50.240
That everybody was throwing popcorn around and having fun.
01:20:54.260
Heaven forbid these kids have fun in the theater, Pat.
01:21:18.360
As we celebrate the many pro-life victories going forth, rejoice.
01:21:22.500
Preborn's network of clinics have a unique opportunity to advance even further without political persecution.
01:21:29.340
Well, preborn is the greatest threat to the abortion industry.

Last year alone, preborn rescued over 67,000 babies, and they're putting a serious dent into the abortion tragedy.
01:21:38.580
But there are still thousands of babies who are slain every single day, and preborn's goal is to rescue all of them.

A little fun fact you can use at parties this weekend.
01:22:55.060
Tyler Shook, you know, he was drafted this weekend, this past weekend.
01:22:59.140
And not only is he going to be known for his beautiful wife, Jordan, that went viral from draft weekend.
01:23:11.160
And this is him getting the call for the draft.
01:23:30.720
So he played college in Oregon, Texas Tech, Louisville.
01:23:33.760
And he was a second round draft pick here this last draft going to the New Orleans Saints.
01:23:39.040
He will be the last player drafted born in the 1990s.
01:23:50.720
Because he's probably, you're what, 25 at least?
01:24:17.800
Go ahead and use that this weekend at your parties.
01:24:30.140
We've got Kamala Harris, who is seemingly, I don't know if she's on the campaign trail
01:24:42.100
I mean, we've been seeing her mug out there making her little speeches around.
01:24:50.100
In fact, please allow me, friends, to digress for a moment.
01:24:54.880
It's kind of dark in here, but I'm asking a show of hands.
01:25:23.920
She's talking about the elephants that got into a circle, right?
01:25:27.880
To protect their children that they didn't have.
01:25:29.960
And they didn't have to protect children from the earthquake.
01:25:34.620
If the earthquake is either going to swallow you or it's not.
01:25:56.060
Next week, there's another special surprise coming up on The View.
01:26:07.300
For the last four years, I've felt less welcome in my home.
01:26:14.440
Anybody who had common sense felt less welcome in their home the last four years.
01:26:20.640
Thank goodness we feel more comfortable in our home now.
01:26:25.180
Because common sense is beginning to return to the United States of America.
01:26:32.860
Some things are not returning to the United States of America.
01:26:35.940
Apparently, shipments are going to be down at the port of Los Angeles, they're saying.

Okay, so shipments from China are going to be affected,
01:29:48.460
according to the Port of Los Angeles, beginning this coming week.
01:29:53.500
The shipments from China are expected to plummet by 35%.
01:29:59.620
Oh, I have a story in front of me that says 65%.
01:30:14.060
I copied and pasted this story, and it said the cargo shipments from China to the U.S.
01:30:21.020
The shipments plummeted 65% in three weeks after the tariffs took effect in April.
01:30:34.360
And we haven't noticed much from that, have we?
01:30:40.960
They claim in this that they've called off about 80 trips from China to the U.S. this month.
01:30:46.480
So that's more than 60% cancellations during peak.
01:30:51.220
I mean, that's 60% more cancellations than during the peak of COVID.
01:31:12.480
They expect one-third fewer arrivals next week compared to the same time last year.
01:31:35.020
According to our own Port Optimizer, this particular official says, which measures the loadings in Asia,
01:31:43.880
will be down just a little bit over, 35% next week compared to last year.
01:31:48.620
And it's a precipitous drop in volume with a number of American, major American retailers,
01:31:54.260
stopping all shipments from China based on the tariffs.
01:31:58.120
So, that sounds like it's not China deciding they're going to send fewer products.
01:32:03.080
That sounds like it's our company saying, yeah, don't ship it here.
01:32:07.160
Because we don't want the tariff slapped on it.
01:32:17.240
Shipments from China make up about 45% of all business for the Port of Los Angeles,
01:32:23.340
though some transport companies will be looking to pick up goods at other points in Southeast Asia
01:32:30.680
Realistically speaking, until some accord or framework can be reached with China,
01:32:34.960
the volume coming out of there, with the exception of a few different commodities,
01:32:39.340
will be very light at best, according to this particular official.
01:32:44.540
Along with the lower volume of goods, he said he expects roughly a quarter of the usual number
01:32:50.080
of arriving ships to the Port to be canceled in May.
01:32:57.720
I heard one pundit talk about this, that they were willing to have this happen.
01:33:04.320
And if my daughter has to get one doll instead of eight dolls for Christmas, so be it.
01:33:12.280
Now, I will say this, this doesn't sound like there's going to be one doll.
01:33:17.200
Because now, if you go to the store now, and you, I don't know what product would be missing,
01:33:22.840
but if the shelf is empty, you're going to, people are going to start, and I say you,
01:33:28.220
people are going to start driving around looking for that product and buying more than one.
01:33:39.480
That's, I don't know what the word I'm looking for, not good.
01:33:48.040
You might want to dumb that down for the rest of us.
01:33:52.940
There's, you know, hopefully American businesses can pick up the slack here.
01:33:59.020
Maybe we can kick that into gear, which would be nice.
01:34:03.840
You know, I have a small business, the cookie company.
01:34:07.900
And we get a lot of boxes because we have to put our cookies into a box.
01:34:15.240
And then you send the box to people at various places all over the country.
01:34:20.500
Okay, but the boxes, we wanted to do an American company.
01:34:23.880
We wanted Americans to make the boxes that we ship our American product in.
01:34:33.380
And, in fact, we went with a couple of American companies.
01:34:37.420
But we were willing to pay a little bit more to be, you know, to be all American.
01:34:52.420
Because we're such a small company, didn't mean anything to them.
01:34:59.180
And they're like, yeah, well, that's what you got.
01:35:16.220
And so we went to another American company and had a similar experience with them.
01:35:25.700
But you've got to be able to get the product and have the product what you want.
01:35:29.740
And you've got to have enough of the product to serve your customers.
01:35:38.400
Even though, you know, we're not a company with 1,500 locations like some other cookie
01:35:45.580
And I'm sure that we're happy to box up those cookies.
01:35:57.600
And it makes it hard when a company is telling you, yeah, no, whatever.
01:36:16.640
So, you know, there are just various reasons why people turn to China for manufacturing.
01:36:22.660
Because in some cases, they don't want your business.
01:36:35.260
Also coming out of Los Angeles is that there are 50,000 county workers in Los Angeles that
01:36:46.940
Because of it, it closed libraries and disrupted some administrative operations in the county.
01:36:56.900
How do you function if your county library closes?
01:37:05.460
I don't know what I would do with my life if our county library closed.
01:37:20.600
I went out to complain to my lifeguard and he was off on a mental health day.
01:37:25.520
This is the kind of stuff that's going on in LA.
01:37:36.360
And the lifeguards are taking mental health days because of the dolphins on the beach.
01:37:39.860
And they're whining that nobody's making movies or TV shows there anymore.
01:37:44.320
They're passing new permitting processes, trying to get productions back into California and LA.
01:37:53.400
I think the state is trying to make a deal so that they have better taxed.
01:37:59.600
But Los Angeles City Council approved a measure to make the film permitting process less of a headache.
01:38:06.500
Slashing fees, location discounts, red tape cutting.
01:38:15.880
And they're doing that because everybody's going to the alternative.
01:38:20.600
That's what happens when you're too expensive and you don't care.
01:38:24.720
So they come to Texas and film their movie here.
01:38:37.440
Because they will offer you tax incentives and they won't charge you as much.
01:38:49.280
So they're starting to see the light in Southern California, are they?
01:38:55.240
But if they film the movie there, let's say they bring the movie industry back there.
01:39:01.180
What's going to happen when the actors find out the county libraries are closed?
01:39:14.220
I mean, I'm just a flux right now not knowing what to do for them.
01:39:18.880
I can barely finish the show just knowing that the county libraries in L.A. are closed right now.
01:39:23.700
I was trying to think the last time I was actually at a library.
01:39:26.840
That's what I was trying to think of the other day, too.
01:39:29.040
I remember now, and I bet you it's the same with you, because we, maybe not, but because
01:39:40.560
I didn't actually vote there because ours is in a school.
01:39:47.300
But the library's right there in the city building.
01:39:53.260
The only thing I've been to the library in the last 15 years for was an HOA meeting
01:40:02.060
I'm like, oh, so this is what the library looks like.
01:40:05.140
You didn't hang out and peruse some of the books or anything?
01:40:20.560
You know, a lot of people living with everyday pain just assume it's their new normal.
01:40:33.760
She was out for a walk when she got hit by a car.
01:40:36.520
And afterwards, she couldn't shake the pain in her lower back.
01:40:40.380
She tried everything, but nothing worked until her husband heard about Relief Factor.
01:40:48.960
Her pain began to ease, her range of motion improved, and that dark cloud of constant discomfort finally began to lift.
01:40:59.300
Today, Jenny's not just grateful, she's amazed at what Relief Factor has done for her.
01:41:04.540
So, if you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement, could help you feel and live better every day.
01:41:19.540
In a few weeks or even days, you'll feel the difference with Relief Factor.
01:41:27.800
Visit relieffactor.com or you can call 800-4-RELIEF.
01:41:47.720
All right, we've got to play this person who I'd never heard of until this week.
01:41:57.200
I'd never heard of her until she was canceled as the White House press party thing, comedian host.
01:42:08.020
So, it's the big dinner they have to mock politicians and laugh at themselves.
01:42:13.640
It's just a wonderful gathering where everybody just gets along for a night.
01:42:22.440
Anyway, she said something about the Trump administration being filled with murderers.
01:42:34.480
And so, Amber Ruffin showed up on the coven with the witch's brew that is The View.
01:42:43.100
And here's what she had to say to the witches at the coven.
01:42:46.480
People are saying that Trump did a bad job 100 days in.
01:42:51.780
This man has done everything he has set out to do.
01:42:59.300
And people who we know and love, our neighbors, are disappeared.
01:43:25.400
And they're being deported to where they came from.
01:43:34.920
Feel less welcome in my home than I did, you know, last year.
01:44:05.060
What about how we felt the last four years of this, of the nightmare that was the Joe Biden
01:44:12.080
Where you couldn't even define what a woman is.
01:44:15.080
Do you think we felt welcome in our country, those of us with common sense?
01:44:28.800
And if it was coming from Republicans about a Democrat.
01:44:33.500
You would just be berated on every newscast and every website.
01:44:42.360
You just, you probably wouldn't even have a job.
01:44:47.200
There were plenty of people being disappeared during the Joe Biden administration as far
01:45:01.520
Also, members of the Doge team sat down and they discussed the shocking things that
01:45:10.920
That lets you write in on the innards of what's happening with Doge.
01:45:23.940
In fact, payments to the Taliban in Afghanistan came up.
01:45:28.600
Yeah, so it was by far the least peaceful agency that we've worked with, ironically.
01:45:34.720
Additionally, we found that they were spending money on things like private jets.
01:45:37.940
And they even had a $130,000 contract with a former member of the Taliban.
01:45:54.200
And to Elon's point, there was not actually a clear description of what the contractor services
01:46:08.760
And you naturally have to ask the question, how did we get here?
01:46:11.380
Like, when the country was founded, there were only four agencies.
01:46:16.000
So there's been a 100x increase in the number of agencies since the founding of the nation.
01:46:20.320
And thanks to President Trump, he's now signed two executive orders to start to reduce
01:46:25.380
And the Institute of Peace was one of them, which is why our team went in to try and understand
01:46:29.000
And that's when we found all of the craziness, like the weapons in their armory.
01:46:41.100
So just a few hours after we got into their headquarters, we found that their chief accountant had actually
01:46:44.860
deleted over a terabyte of accounting records from several leaders.
01:46:47.680
So you'd have to ask the question, well, why would somebody do that?
01:46:50.500
And the Doge team, unfortunately, was able to recover that data with the help of a few
01:46:56.040
I think the most troubling thing was they received $55 million a year from Congress.
01:47:00.380
And any money that went unspent, instead of returning that to Congress, they would sweep
01:47:04.080
it into a private bank account, which had no congressional oversight.
01:47:07.940
And that's what they would use to fund things like events at their headquarters and the private
01:47:13.140
And so I think it's a great example because most Americans don't know what's going on at
01:47:18.500
And this is, I think, the most extreme case of some of the wasteful spend that we're finding.
01:47:29.860
They have loaded weapons in the department buildings.
01:47:42.880
They did delete a vast amount of financial information.
01:47:53.920
It's certainly illegal to delete accounting records that Congress would certainly want
01:47:58.100
to know where the congressionally appropriated funds are going from taxpayers.
01:48:04.860
And the left, the left continues to be pissed off.
01:48:13.540
That they're trying to recover information on where this money has gone.
01:48:33.460
But the amazing thing is, the headline on all of that will be,
01:49:00.020
Did you know that, just like here in the U.S., Israel celebrates their Independence Day?
01:49:04.080
In case you missed it, this year, Israel's Independence Day was just a few days ago, on May 1st.
01:49:08.780
But for the people of Israel, freedom is really nothing more than a daily struggle just to survive.
01:49:15.100
It's difficult to find moments of joy while there's so much suffering.
01:49:18.060
And the Israeli government relies on the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews for its ongoing help to make sure the elderly, the sick, the wounded soldiers, and impoverished families don't fall through the cracks.
01:49:29.020
We can't even imagine the courage of the Israeli people.
01:49:31.480
They're so brave and worthy of our prayers that we'd like to ask you for a gift to the fellowship today.
01:49:36.360
It'll provide life-saving aid, medicine, hearty meals, safety, and comfort.
01:49:40.960
And I believe when we bless God's people of Israel, we unlock God's blessing in our own lives as well.
01:49:45.380
So show your support for Israel by making a life-saving gift today.
01:50:30.400
Pat Gray, Jeff Fisher for Glenn, who is in Italy.
01:50:41.080
This is, it just goes to show the callousness of this administration.
01:50:46.680
First of all, people don't feel safe in their homes anymore, right?
01:50:53.480
Now, President Trump signed an executive order late last night terminating federal funding for National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service, otherwise known as PBS.
01:51:15.700
And nobody had the giblets to do it until Donald Trump.
01:51:23.920
Maybe we should do something about the federal funding.
01:51:38.260
If you can continue your biased journalism through private funding, go ahead.
01:51:45.240
I don't think I should be and you should be expected to pay for it.
01:51:51.140
NPR and PBS, which have long been targeted for cuts by conservatives, both receive partial funding through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting,
01:52:00.500
which the president argued is unnecessary in the current media environment.
01:52:17.620
I mean, we touched on, I don't know if we talked about it on or off the air, but Sheryl Crow was whining about living in Tennessee and how she doesn't feel safe at her home in Tennessee.
01:52:30.000
She could live anywhere on the planet, but I've decided where I live, I'm going to complain about.
01:52:35.120
She sold her Tesla and made a big deal about, you know, because of President Musk.
01:53:04.080
This program made possible through the donation, the generous gift of blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:53:11.880
If you're not getting your $50 million in federal funding, find it somewhere else.
01:53:23.640
Do your documentary shows, which many I've actually watched.
01:53:38.720
Yeah, well, they can also dry up and blow away.
01:53:48.740
Will they have anything else to listen to ever?
01:53:50.480
Yeah, there's a couple of things they could listen to instead of NPR or PBS.
01:54:01.740
They could listen to this show, the Glenn Beck program, right here.
01:54:09.820
Like, this show is free for the taking, for the listening.
01:54:22.480
You know, for right now, if you subscribe today, right now, on a platform of your choice,
01:54:30.260
Can you guarantee it'll always be free, though?
01:54:35.580
Well, I appreciate your effort, though, on our behalf.
01:54:46.740
Now, if it ever becomes problematic where you need more money to make it happen, could
01:55:05.620
Also, apparently, we've got a measles outbreak that continues and just is not subsiding.
01:55:11.600
The thing is, is we just had, this is around this neck of the woods here at Northern Texas
01:55:16.760
in Denton County, and they have confirmed a case.
01:55:29.800
And they have done a complete rundown of contact tracing.
01:55:39.260
Because this person went to a number of places in a couple of days, and then we found out
01:55:48.260
So, I mean, they list every place this person went to.
01:56:15.020
And it's not immediately clear if this person was vaccinated.
01:56:21.700
And up to 9 out of 10 people nearby will become infected if they are not protected.
01:56:33.600
I really seriously don't understand why we're treating this like it's a.
01:56:38.680
Like it's bubonic plague or it's Ebola or something.
01:56:46.620
And again, people had measles parties back in the day.
01:56:56.260
And because you want to get it as a child rather than as an adult when it could do more damage.
01:57:06.740
It's it's I mean, on my show a month or so ago, we highlighted the difference between the way we treat measles today as compared to like 1969, 1970.
01:57:18.340
When the Brady's bunch, the Brady bunch, did an episode.
01:57:24.920
We all got measles and we had a measles party and it was fun.
01:57:29.260
And we took the day off and we didn't go to school.
01:57:49.340
And I mean, one person has measles and we have to contact trace that person.
01:58:07.460
Now, was this guy in Denton who had measles, was he anywhere near, let's say, the Titanic?
01:58:13.000
You should stop using gender language because I don't know if it was a guy or a girl.
01:58:17.200
Were they anywhere near, for instance, the Titanic?
01:58:23.600
It's possible that they were, but that was not on the list.
01:58:27.240
That's close because I think it would be on the list.
01:58:43.200
They've got so much more information and so much more artifacts and stuff now.
01:58:48.100
They know a lot more about it now than they did back then.
01:58:52.620
I mean, do they have, like, lifeboat rides or anything at the?
01:59:00.180
And they've recreated, like, you know, that beautiful staircase that you see in Titanic, the movie.
01:59:04.160
They recreated that and some of the suites and they've got a lot of paraphernalia that didn't necessarily come from the Titanic because a lot of that is at the bottom of the ocean now and we don't have access to it.
01:59:18.540
Or authentic actual items from the twin, like the other boats that were just like the Titanic.
01:59:25.380
I think one was called the Olympic or something.
01:59:31.020
So, I mean, that makes it better than the certified replica.
01:59:33.660
Yes, because they were actually used at the time.
01:59:36.520
So, you see, and some of the things are actually from the Titanic.
01:59:40.940
For instance, there's a cup and a saucer that came from the Titanic because the person who presented them to authorities and passed it down through the generations stole it from the ship and got off the ship in Ireland before it sank.
02:00:13.020
But one of the things I found fascinating at the display was they talked about how well-stocked the ship was because, you know, there was a lot of rich people on it.
02:00:29.220
And I couldn't believe how much it cost for the third-class passengers.
02:00:33.760
It was $40 to get a third-class ticket, which at the time, adjusted for inflation, would be $940.
02:00:43.240
Which is why in the documentary, Jack was happy to win it in a card game.
02:00:49.580
First-class tickets were $3,300, which is the equivalent of $77,000 today.
02:01:01.000
That's why the Richie Hoity Toits were so hoity-toity.
02:01:04.400
They spent a lot of money to get on that bad boy.
02:01:06.600
And then, you know, as a result, most of them died.
02:01:13.960
Guggenheim went down with the ship, he and his wife.
02:01:16.940
He actually had a chance to get on one of the, and this is what you'll see if you go to the exhibit, and I highly recommend it.
02:01:24.860
But Guggenheim and his wife were at the lifeboats, and he was offered a place on the lifeboat, and he said, no, I will not take the life of some woman or child who should be getting my place just because I was a coward.
02:01:51.140
So she went back to the kitchen and made him lunch.
02:02:00.500
We just did the story about the guy who died, and they just auctioned off his letters.
02:02:07.580
He was one of the first ones that wrote a letter from the Titanic, and it talked about his life.
02:02:12.480
He was the first person to die that was a survivor from it.
02:02:16.980
He jumped in the water, rode on top of a lifeboat that was turned upside down, and then was rescued, and he suffered from damage being in that cold water for that amount of time, for his whole life.
02:02:39.240
One of the things they have at the display is this giant, it looks like an iceberg, but it was created because you can actually touch it.
02:02:50.100
So you can feel how cold it is because they've got it in liquid nitrogen.
02:02:53.960
And it was that particular display is 32 degrees.
02:02:58.700
The actual water was a little bit colder than that at 30 degrees.
02:03:21.180
And they talked about the provisions that they had on board, which included 75,000 pounds of fresh meat, 11,000 pounds of fresh fish.
02:03:31.820
4,000 pounds of salted and dry fish, 7,500 pounds of bacon and ham, 25,000 pounds of poultry and game.
02:03:42.140
40,000 eggs, 2,500 pounds of sausage, or as you would call it, Jeffy, breakfast.
02:03:58.480
That's what I figured when I saw the list of it.
02:04:00.480
I thought, this is just a good start for Jeffy.
02:04:10.280
Can't believe he used to be a top 40 disc jockey.
02:04:31.220
Crime is at an all-time high, and it might get worse before it gets any better.
02:04:34.960
You might already own a firearm, but we should always start with less lethal to avoid the financial and mental repercussions of pulling the trigger.
02:04:45.980
Berna's less lethal launchers are equipped with tear gas and kinetic ammunition and designed to incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes.
02:04:53.600
Berna, they're excited to introduce their all-new, sleek, compact launcher.
02:05:01.340
It's the same size as a smartphone, allowing you to conceal carry everywhere comfortably with confidence.
02:05:06.960
It fires at 400 feet per second with 41 joules per square inch of stopping power.
02:05:12.780
To stop aggressors in their tracks without having to deal with all the complexities of a homicide, Berna, legal in all 50 states, requires no background checks, and can be shipped directly to your door.

Because, Pat, the internet is a dumping ground.
02:06:32.220
Because she's an astronaut and people are jealous?
02:06:41.020
Who has been to space and because you haven't, you got to berate her for it.
02:06:47.940
And she said, look, the internet is a dumping ground for unhinged and the unhealed.
02:06:55.360
While she's felt battered and bruised, she kept looking to the light, Pat.
02:07:15.120
