00:00:00.000 Election Day doesn't clear your calendar for you.
00:00:02.460 It'd be nice if it did.
00:00:03.660 Unfortunately, you still have to go to work.
00:00:05.160 The kids still have to get to someplace, and somebody else might get sick, or the car won't start.
00:00:09.500 And that super important meeting runs long.
00:00:12.040 None of those things care that this was the day you planned on voting.
00:00:15.700 So don't build a plan that only works if everything goes right.
00:00:19.480 Early voting is available everywhere.
00:00:21.800 If it's available where you live, find out when it starts.
00:00:24.600 Know where you need to go.
00:00:25.840 Look at your calendar.
00:00:26.660 Pick a day when you can actually get it done.
00:00:29.040 because voting is important enough to treat it like something you intend to do,
00:00:33.260 not something you hope you'll have time to do.
00:00:36.300 Go to GOPVotes.org right now.
00:00:39.000 Find out when you can vote.
00:00:40.780 Make your voice heard.
00:00:41.960 It's easier than ever.

00:00:59.040 We'll be right back.
00:01:29.040 The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment.
00:01:43.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:46.900 Glenn Beck is on.
00:01:50.240 Hello, America.
00:01:53.000 Before we say anything, it's Friday.
00:01:57.720 Welcome.
00:01:58.300 Glad you're here.
00:01:59.600 We've got a lot to talk about today.
00:02:01.300 We've got some breaking news.
00:02:03.560 We have the Deputy Attorney General on in just a little while.
00:02:07.560 He's going to talk about what's happening in Florida.
00:02:10.160 It's an exclusive, why the DOJ is suing California over non-citizens on their voter rolls.
00:02:15.380 That's coming up.
00:02:16.040 You won't hear that anyplace else.
00:02:17.420 Something else you won't hear anyplace else.
00:02:20.140 Yesterday, an update on what I told you about yesterday,
00:02:23.340 about the, oh, the wonderful, wonderful banking system
00:02:27.960 and our federal government
00:02:29.060 and how they have been tracking people.
00:02:31.140 I have an update on that and a serious one.
00:02:33.160 So we've got that coming up.
00:02:34.200 Don't miss that.
00:02:35.560 We'll do that here in just a second.
00:02:36.880 And I want to start with,
00:02:39.360 I think the future is here.
00:02:42.140 The future is now.
00:02:43.780 When I was growing up, we were promised a few things.
00:02:46.700 We were promised fat pills and flying cars.
00:02:51.020 we have the fat pill and apparently now we have the flying car talk about that coming up in just
00:03:00.660 a second first let me tell you about mercury one there's a terrible lie that people are starting
00:03:04.460 believing in this country and it is that ordinary people cannot make a difference anymore that the
00:03:09.140 problems are just too big the institutions are too powerful and the best you can do is watch
00:03:13.860 everything fall apart i reject that completely and i have 15 years of proof 15 years ago we started
00:03:19.440 mercury one with a really simple belief that when good people are given the opportunity to do
00:03:24.100 something extraordinary they will do you realize that this audience has saved far more people than 0.87
00:03:31.680 oscar schindler saved in world war ii you have saved christians and jews and yazidis from being
00:03:40.700 killed far more than oscar schindler ever did you know that the world doesn't know that but you
00:03:47.840 should know that and that's all through mercury one through our american journey experience you're
00:03:52.240 helping preserve the history that the next generation desperately needs to understand
00:03:56.680 we're celebrating 15 years with a special anniversary gala it is happening next saturday
00:04:01.580 a week from tomorrow we have some tickets that we've made available for 250 i would love to see

00:04:18.140 It pays our light bills and everything else. Get your tickets now at mercuryone.org. That's
00:04:22.880 mercuryone.org. We'll see you Saturday. All righty. So yesterday, I told you what the banks were
00:04:29.840 doing. Yesterday, I told you that the DOJ had released some information that looks like the
00:04:37.420 banks were targeting people through the federal regulators. They were targeting people that were,
00:04:43.820 you know, buying MAGA hats, red MAGA hats. You bought a MAGA hat, you were on a list with the
00:04:49.180 federal government, and you could lose your bank account. They were tracking about 700,000 people
00:04:56.020 in America. It is the worst abuse of the Constitution I have ever seen in my lifetime,
00:05:03.020 and I told you this is not something that you should care about as a conservative
00:05:06.680 or a liberal or an independent.
00:05:09.800 You should care about this because you're an American.
00:05:13.600 This has got to stop because it will fall into somebody's hands,
00:05:17.360 either the left or the right or the middle.
00:05:19.080 It doesn't matter.
00:05:20.220 Somebody who is craven for power, if this is not punished.
00:05:25.380 Yesterday I told you this was about reputational risk.
00:05:29.320 What is that?
00:05:30.900 Well, let me tell you what it is not anymore.
00:05:33.100 Despite the lack of coverage, the federal government took the word reputational risk away from those people who regulate our banks.
00:05:42.380 In April, a rule went into effect.
00:05:46.180 Regulators can no longer punish a bank over something called reputational risk.
00:05:51.980 They can no longer pressure your bank to close your account because of your politics or your faith or your speech or any other thing that is legal that Washington doesn't like.
00:06:04.240 Then in June, the Fed, the FDIC, and the comptroller of the currency went through their guidance on lending, risk management, even cybersecurity, and struck the term out of every federal document.
00:06:19.740 they put the reason in writing they said quote reputational risk can be misused by supervisors
00:06:27.420 to push banks into cutting off people and legal businesses over constitutionally protected
00:06:32.840 beliefs that is the government admitting what the government did this is this is the answer
00:06:43.040 to the cancer. Reputational risk is the idea that banks should decide who gets to be a customer
00:06:50.240 based partly on what that customer may or may not believe in, and what that customer may believe
00:06:57.920 might make the bank look bad. Who's it going to make it look bad to? The federal government,
00:07:03.520 because the federal government says, you know what? We think carbon is really bad. We think
00:07:10.160 fossil fuels are really bad. We think red hats are really bad. And so if you loan to those people, 1.00
00:07:16.380 we'll punish you because that's not creating a beautiful and equitable society.
00:07:22.660 All right. Nobody wants their bank, you know, financing a crime ring, but these aren't crime
00:07:29.860 rings. Okay. A bank is supposed to judge you on questions with answers. Do you pay back the loan?
00:07:38.240 Yes or no.
00:07:38.900 Do you have collateral?
00:07:40.160 Yes or no.
00:07:41.700 You know, is your business making money?
00:07:43.800 Yes or no.
00:07:44.400 Show us your books.
00:07:46.380 Can you prove these things in your book?
00:07:48.400 Yes or no.
00:07:49.700 You can't prove your reputation to somebody who has already decided they don't like you.
00:07:54.700 How is the oil and gas industry going to prove their reputation to a bank when the federal government has already said, no, we don't like oil and gas?
00:08:05.640 Well, I'm sorry, you may not like it, but it's legal.
00:08:08.100 But as long as there's reputational risk for the bank, if the government says we don't like that and you're going to put your reputation at risk with us, they can fine them.
00:08:20.000 So there's no number.
00:08:21.700 There's no standard.
00:08:23.000 There's no appeal to any of this.
00:08:25.780 Reputation is whatever the person holding the clipboard says it is.
00:08:30.300 And when the person that is holding the clipboard is a federal examiner for the banks who can make your bank's life absolutely miserable, the bank gets the message without anybody having to write a law.
00:08:44.080 And that was the genius of it, and it came from the WEF. 0.55
00:08:49.440 Congress never voted to cut off gun dealers.
00:08:52.300 Congress never voted to starve oil and gas. 0.51
00:08:54.940 No senator stood up and said, let's make it hard for a Christian charity to keep a checking account.
00:09:01.020 Nobody had to. 0.97
00:09:02.540 It's run by bureaucrats.
00:09:05.060 This is Woodrow Wilson's dream come true.
00:09:08.900 This is the progressive way of governance.
00:09:12.640 You want Marxism? This is it.
00:09:15.160 You don't elect these people.
00:09:16.880 You don't even know who the regulators are.
00:09:18.880 You don't know whose office to call.
00:09:22.660 An examiner would just ask,
00:09:24.300 are you sure this customer is worth the risk to your reputation?
00:09:27.440 That's a threat.
00:09:28.220 And the banker who has a family, has a mortgage, has a boss, has shareholders, knows exactly what that question means.
00:09:36.760 Then came ESG, and ESG took that soft lever and bolted a motor to it.
00:09:43.920 The biggest banks in America signed on to a global climate alliance backed by the United Nations.
00:09:51.540 That's where your financial institutions come in.
00:09:55.000 They signed on to this.
00:09:56.820 They knew what they were doing, and they built scores, ESG scores, climate scores, social scores, and suddenly reputation had paperwork.
00:10:08.060 It had a spreadsheet.
00:10:09.580 It looked like science.
00:10:11.760 But it was the same question.
00:10:13.080 Do we like you or not?
00:10:14.920 If you drill for oil, you're a risk.
00:10:17.140 If you made rifles, you're a risk.
00:10:19.000 If you bought a red hat, you're a risk.
00:10:21.480 You ran the wrong kind of charity or said the wrong thing on a podcast, you're a risk.
00:10:26.820 Not a risk to the bank's money, a risk to the bank's standing with the people who will never deposit a dime in any of their banks.
00:10:35.020 That's a velvet rope, and it never slams the door.
00:10:39.640 It just quietly never lets you in.
00:10:42.980 Your loan gets slower.
00:10:44.720 Your terms get worse.
00:10:46.380 Your account gets reviewed.
00:10:47.860 And one day, a letter arrives saying your relationship with the bank no longer fits the bank's risk appetite.
00:10:54.300 No reason, no hearing, 30 days, move your money.
00:10:59.720 This is the way it happened in Germany, I warn you. 1.00
00:11:01.620 This is what happened in Germany with the Jews. 0.97
00:11:04.440 People think that censorship is taking your microphone. 0.86
00:11:07.960 In a modern economy, the fastest way to silence somebody is make sure that they can't pay anybody.
00:11:13.360 No payroll, no rent, no card processing.
00:11:16.300 You say anything you want.
00:11:18.200 You just can't stay in business if you say it.
00:11:21.120 And it's not because the people reject you.
00:11:23.680 It's because the unelected bureaucrats have decided you can't stay in business.
00:11:32.040 Okay, so this is good news, actually.
00:11:34.220 This is really good news.
00:11:35.880 Don't celebrate, but it's good news.
00:11:39.300 And here's why.
00:11:42.400 The Trump administration signed an executive order to stop all of this.
00:11:49.860 And they went in and they removed all of the language, but a rule written by one administration can be erased by the next administration.
00:12:00.860 An executive order can be reversed with a signature, and the banks still have their own policies, their own pledges, their own alliances.
00:12:09.200 Taking the clipboard away from the examiner doesn't erase what the boardroom learned.
00:12:14.680 fair access to banking act has been kicking around congress for years now it would make
00:12:21.680 this protection law real law the kind that doesn't change when the white house does
00:12:28.460 and that's what needs to happen until that passes your access to your own money is only as safe as
00:12:34.620 the next election and i warn you you think that the democrat the republicans did nothing and oh
00:12:40.500 well the Democrats won't pass it let me tell you something or the Republicans won't pass it the
00:12:45.820 Democrats will pass the opposite of this they were the ones that did this to your bank in the first
00:12:52.440 place so if you don't if you're thinking well I don't need to vote for the Republicans they piss
00:12:57.940 me off well at least you'd have two more years you'd have two more years of at least trying to
00:13:06.560 get something done because if you put a congress that is a democrat and a um and a senate that is
00:13:13.860 democrat there is no chance in hell your protection is coming none zero
00:13:20.060 there's something you can do today that doesn't require anyone in washington and that's this
00:13:31.960 know where your money sleeps at night. Ask your bank what alliances it has joined. Ask whether it
00:13:39.060 is ever closed an account over politics or faith. I will tell you that they will say no.
00:13:44.760 Look at the local bank or the credit union down the street, the one where the loan officer knows
00:13:49.860 your name and keeps your loan instead of selling it to a committee in another time zone. That's
00:13:55.740 really important and you can find those banks a free person is judged by what he does not by who
00:14:03.500 is upset about it and that goes for your bank and it goes for your neighbor and it goes for you the
00:14:10.000 next time you're tempted to write to somebody or write them off because the crowd has written them
00:14:15.620 off. Right now, the clipboard is wrong. Because of Donald Trump, right now, make sure it stays
00:14:26.540 gone. There's your update on the banks for today. Now, I want to talk to you about flying cars. Let
00:14:33.140 me first take 60 seconds. Chapter. There is a reason car salesmen want you to buy the car
00:14:39.800 before you leave the lot. The longer you have to consider your options, the more likely you are to
00:14:43.400 ask questions. And questions aren't always good for the person who's trying to sell you something.
00:14:47.620 Now, Medicare, open enrollment has begun. And if you're eligible for Medicare,
00:14:51.740 you're going to hear a lot of people telling you, act fast, act fast. I'm telling you,
00:14:55.360 no, no, no, no, no. Act smart. That's why I recommend Chapter. Their licensed Medicare
00:15:01.260 advisors help you compare your options without pushing you towards one particular plan. And
00:15:05.560 right now, demand is so high that even after tripling their advisor capacity,
00:15:10.040 chapter is experiencing longer wait times. This is an amazing company. I've been telling you that
00:15:15.040 I've been talking about since they started. This company was started by a couple of guys
00:15:22.360 in Silicon Valley who saw their parents ripped off because these Medicare advisors were just
00:15:28.160 trying to push them into the thing that they were selling. And they realized our parents have just
00:15:35.120 lost all this money. They can't afford their Medicare, their Medicaid and their, um, our
00:15:40.500 Medicare, and they can't afford the prescription drugs and they can't see the doctors they need to
00:15:44.760 see. And they got pissed and they were like, okay, we're going to do something about it.
00:15:48.700 So they put together a proprietary system. It can check every single provider. It can check
00:15:55.040 every, all coverage. So they talk to you and they find out who your doctors are, what your problems
00:16:01.480 are, what your medication is, and then they find the right plan for you. The average person is
00:16:05.620 saving, I think, $1,100 every year. Dial pound 250, keyword chapter. They're the only ones that
00:16:11.140 can do this. Pound 250, keyword chapter. Act now before you're left overpaying for the wrong
00:16:17.060 coverage for another year. Pound 250, chapter, 10-second station ID.
00:16:31.480 do your own homework. Find out what your bank believes. Find out what your bank is doing about
00:16:41.720 it. Now, the reason why you don't have to pull your money is what I just told you.
00:16:49.480 Don't, first of all, when you walk into your local bank, do not accuse your local bank
00:16:56.720 from doing anything. Your local people have no idea about any of this. I'm not even sure. I'm
00:17:03.960 not sure even at Citibank and JP Morgan, how many people up at the very top are aware of all of the
00:17:13.000 ins and outs of this. This was the top of the financial community, and I think they did it in
00:17:20.560 Paris. Jason, correct me if I'm wrong. I think they did this in Paris. They got together a few
00:17:26.400 days before the climate accord in paris this is why this is why donald trump was like we're out
00:17:31.700 of the paris accords that was a financial deal and it was done with all of the financial tippity
00:17:38.500 top leaders um back in the mid 2000s um and they put it all together and then everything was built
00:17:47.340 off of them so the financial sector had something to do with it your local banker doesn't probably
00:17:53.800 know any of this as my guy said at u.s bank he's like glenn i can tell you i can promise you we
00:18:00.420 don't know we get all of these things in it says we need this information we need this information
00:18:06.180 we need information he's like we didn't we weren't told it was because of hats we were told an
00:18:11.900 investigation is going on we need these records so there is a there is a communication breakdown
00:18:19.120 that we have to figure out and solve.
00:18:22.760 I will tell you, I want a bank who is standing up and saying,
00:18:28.340 America, help us pass this law.
00:18:32.800 The president just signed it in.
00:18:36.300 If you want this to stop,
00:18:39.380 then you have to get Congress and the Senate to pass this law.
00:18:45.180 Right now, none of this is happening.
00:18:47.160 And I have to tell you, we're going to talk to, in just a second, we're talking to Trent McCotter.
00:18:53.980 He is the acting deputy attorney general.
00:18:56.480 So he's number two at the DOJ. 0.95
00:18:58.780 I'm going to talk to him about California and what they're doing in California with the non-citizens on the voter rolls. 0.84
00:19:03.740 But I'm going to ask him this, too. 1.00
00:19:05.200 I have to tell you, I think people are going to go to jail on this.
00:19:10.320 I do think people are going to go to jail on this.
00:19:13.960 So that is good news.
00:19:15.820 You need to be aware, and you need to start doing your own homework.
00:19:20.060 But the most important thing you can do, God, I hate saying this,
00:19:24.860 is call your frickin' senator and your congressman and tell them
00:19:29.160 you want this executive order to be codified. 0.85
00:19:36.800 More in a minute.
00:19:37.820 All right, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
00:19:39.980 It's Real Estate Agents, I Trust.
00:19:41.900 Never confuse a good price with a good deal.
00:19:44.920 You can buy a used car for $500.
00:19:47.420 You can feel like a genius right up until the transmission falls out onto the highway.
00:19:51.240 You can get a great deal on a vacation rental and then discover the Ocean View Advertise requires you to stand on the toilet and lean out the window with binoculars.
00:19:59.320 Sometimes what you don't know ends up costing you the most, and that's especially true in real estate because the price of a house is only part of the equation.
00:20:07.280 There's a condition of the property, the neighborhood, the market, the negotiations.
00:20:10.960 You know, I have to tell you, I had a real estate agent help us buy a house in Florida, and she knew exactly what was going to be built in our area.

00:21:51.960 This is a private partnership for carbon accounting financials. This is what the DOJ,
00:21:57.980 this is what we have found out, and I hope the DOJ is all over this.
00:22:01.200 this is what we found out this is part of it that it lets them go and say hey i can't you've got a
00:22:09.060 maga hat you know you're an oil company i can't finance you because of reputational risk it's a
00:22:15.040 private organization has nothing to do with the government the ones in the united states that are

00:22:54.240 I am expecting big things out of the DOJ, and I'm already starting to see them, and I have a feeling a lot of stuff is coming our way.
00:23:01.000 And thank God, finally, our DOJ is moving.
00:23:04.740 Trent, welcome to the program. I'm so glad you're here.
00:23:08.580 I want to talk to you about California and what is happening in California.
00:23:13.060 You guys just put a list of more than 20,000 names that you say are non-citizens or likely non-citizens who got mail ballots.
00:23:20.240 You gave the state of California 48 hours. Tell me about this situation and how confident are you that the list will move fast enough before the election?
00:23:34.320 Well, thanks for having me. Yeah, California is the worst of the worst when it comes to allowing illegals to vote. 1.00
00:23:39.960 So you referenced the letter I sent a couple of days ago. We've actually been in talks with California for months now. 0.91
00:23:44.600 We've practically begged them to help us clean up their voter roll.
00:23:48.640 As you say, we've got tens of thousands of names that we believe to be illegal voters.
00:23:53.260 We sent that to them, and you won't believe this.
00:23:55.320 Their response to that was that they wouldn't open the encrypted drive we sent them for network security issues, they claimed.
00:24:01.000 So it's kind of ironic.
00:24:02.100 They care a little bit more about the integrity of their network than about the integrity of their voting roll.
00:24:07.540 It's unbelievable.
00:24:08.320 So they wouldn't open – wait, you wouldn't – they wouldn't open up what you sent them because they thought maybe you were trying to hack them?
00:24:15.860 Is that what – is that what they were saying?
00:24:17.180 Yeah, something like that.
00:24:18.660 Yeah, we sent them an encrypted drive, and they wrote back and said, we won't open it because we're not sure it's secure.
00:24:23.600 I mean, at this point, they take willful blindness to a new level.
00:24:28.520 Wow.
00:24:29.140 So you're not asking them to purge the roles.
00:24:32.240 What are you asking them to do?
00:24:33.640 so we asked the court now that we filed our lawsuit to say that the individuals that are
00:24:40.720 on this list that their votes should be set aside just temporarily to confirm whether they're
00:24:46.400 citizens this happens all the time in other contexts in elections you know you might cast
00:24:50.900 a provisional ballot a provisional ballot for example we'll wait and see okay are you allowed
00:24:55.720 to do that oh you are okay good now we'll count the ballot oh wait no you're not okay well in
00:25:00.220 that case, we won't. So we're not trying to strike votes or anything like that. It's just give us a
00:25:04.140 little time to confirm these people are citizens. And remember in California, they don't give us
00:25:09.600 the election results until like six months after the fact anyway. So there should be plenty of time
00:25:13.460 for this to happen. The DHS floated a number that was almost up, I think it was like 190 or 200,000
00:25:20.860 voters. What happened between the number of 190 and 20,000? Well, so we're being conservative
00:25:28.580 here. This is kind of our floor. These are the ones that we're the most confident about,
00:25:33.000 the ones where we feel like they're going to come back and say, yep, pretty much everyone
00:25:35.940 on this list, not a citizen, because we didn't want them to, of course, raise that kind of
00:25:39.340 process objection. Okay. What happens? I mean, it's going to court. It's a California court.
00:25:49.980 I mean, what's going to happen there? Right. It's a California court. It's in the LA district.
00:25:55.840 And we're going to move quickly on this one for obvious reasons.
00:25:58.920 And so we're going to be, as the complaint itself says, we're going to be seeking preliminary relief, trying to get the court to rule quickly and have California not just respond, but, of course, set aside these ballots so we can confirm these folks are, in fact, citizens.
00:26:11.060 uh what is happening with the um with the can you even talk about the cases that you've already done
00:26:18.340 with the you know uh you know where they were handing out uh ballots uh you know for homeless
00:26:25.500 people etc etc yes surprise surprise that was also california right they had folks in california
00:26:33.680 you get paid to harvest ballots you get paid by the ballot so what do you expect to happen
00:26:38.140 Oh, of course, that's right.
00:26:39.120 They're going to go out there and fake signatures.
00:26:41.620 They had homeless people signing for other people who are real voters, and they got caught doing it.
00:26:46.260 That's a criminal case.
00:26:47.300 I think there are three defendants in that case.
00:26:49.040 That's all public.
00:26:50.220 So they can come in.
00:26:51.740 They can make their defense, but the allegations are pretty striking.
00:26:56.840 How bad is it in California?
00:27:00.700 It's probably worse than you could imagine is how I would put it.
00:27:03.380 They are by far the worst from what we can tell because it's a combination of things, right? 1.00
00:27:07.360 Like they won't work with us at all to try to purge non-citizens from their roles. 1.00
00:27:12.480 They send ballots to everyone, whether you ask for it or not. 0.94
00:27:15.500 So there's a zillions of ballots out there floating around in the ether, in the mail.
00:27:19.220 And then they refuse to do anything in terms of state law to ensure that people who are
00:27:24.460 already on the roles are people who are allowed to be on there.
00:27:27.500 So like perfect storm.
00:27:28.680 And then when we actually cooperate, try to get them to cooperate, we send them letters,
00:27:33.080 send them demands.
00:27:34.120 They just thumb their nose at it.
00:27:35.400 And so it shouldn't be surprising that they probably have tens of thousands of illegals on their voter rolls.
00:27:40.480 And then those people get ballots.
00:27:42.840 Ballots are mailed to them.
00:27:45.700 And how does that happen?
00:27:47.180 Is that nefarious or just a mistake? 0.90
00:27:51.660 Well, I think there's some top-down decisions being made here out in California because of how they think that these illegals will vote.
00:27:59.100 And also, some states could claim ignorance. 0.63
00:28:01.120 Well, they told us they were a citizen, so we keep them on the list.
00:28:04.760 But in California, that's why we sent them the list, the one that they refused to open, by the way, and say, well, you can't claim ignorance anymore.
00:28:11.340 You know who these people are.
00:28:12.760 We will help you investigate them.
00:28:14.900 The United States government has excellent resources available.
00:28:17.780 We've helped dozens of other states clean up their roles.
00:28:20.540 Why is California so obstinate?
00:28:24.040 Can I ask you about Jack Smith a little bit?
00:28:26.620 But nine FBI people who worked on Jack's misclassified documents case just sued, saying they got fired in February for nothing more than just being assigned to that case.
00:28:38.020 What's your read on that?
00:28:40.260 Yeah, there's no right to have a government job, right?
00:28:43.540 So I did look at the complaint they filed.
00:28:45.980 I'll be a little careful, I suppose, since it's just a brand new suit.
00:28:49.060 But their argument is that they have a property right in their federal job.
00:28:52.620 Nobody has a property right in their federal job.
00:28:54.800 If you don't do a good job, then you'll get fired.
00:28:57.360 And also this idea that they were retaliated against, I feel like we're being gaslit here.
00:29:01.980 They were retaliated against for the acts against the president of searching his home.
00:29:06.780 Probably the man who's been retaliated against more than anyone else in American history.
00:29:10.580 So there's a little bit of irony there.
00:29:12.040 Maybe not a little, probably a lot of irony with them bringing a lawsuit claiming retaliation of all things.
00:29:17.540 So Trent, maybe I'm wrong.
00:29:21.340 And I don't even know if you can comment on this.
00:29:23.200 But I feel as though there is a change in the DOJ, or maybe you guys have been working for really hard a long time on a lot of stuff, and you finally have the cases that you can file.
00:29:40.140 But I have a feeling that the DOJ is about to—we're about to see a different DOJ get really serious about putting people at least in court for a fair trial, if not in jail.
00:29:53.200 am i reading this right is there is there things are the are things bubbling behind the scenes
00:30:01.760 absolutely so it's a little bit of both to be honest glenn we have been working
00:30:05.520 a lot of these cases for a while now they take a while to develop but we've also got a renewed
00:30:10.000 sense of urgency now attorney general todd blanche she's a great leader we cut through the red tape
00:30:15.360 we cut through the delay we want results we want movement and we want cases to go where they should
00:30:20.160 right like we follow the facts we see what happens and that means in these cases a lot of times that
00:30:26.320 you might see something happen in the public proceedings and if something's not there then
00:30:30.240 okay we won't go there we'll spend our time on something else but when you have that mentality
00:30:34.240 of we only got so much time left two years and however many days left in the administration
00:30:39.600 it's a huge motivation and attorney general blanche knows that and he's got that mentality
00:30:44.240 and everyone else in the building recognizes it i am glad to hear that um but we've been talking
00:30:49.680 in the last couple of days about Jack Smith and the banking stuff.
00:30:54.200 And I hope anyone who is involved in this is going to court.
00:31:00.500 I hope that there are going to be cases filed on this,
00:31:04.340 and we're not just going to end this again with just a hearing from Congress.
00:31:09.520 Yeah, I mean, I think the Jack Smith team had no limits.
00:31:13.080 We just found out about the phone records being recorded of Susie Wiles,
00:31:18.220 of all people, the chief of staff to the president of the United States, one of the most respected
00:31:22.280 people in Washington, D.C., and FBI Director Patel has already taken swift action there,
00:31:27.560 but that's just the beginning on that sort of thing. So I should say we shouldn't be surprised,
00:31:31.900 right, about the bank records, about who's buying MAGA hats. They keep records of that sort of
00:31:36.540 thing. We shouldn't be surprised, but yet somehow every day I feel like we learn something new,
00:31:40.580 shocking. And let me go back to California quickly. Are we going to see something before
00:31:46.660 the election? Is there enough time before the election? Well, we're moving this case as fast
00:31:51.860 as we can. We expect a ruling from the court before the election. And as I said, even if
00:31:56.880 somehow it drags out, California usually doesn't give us results for another month or two anyway.
00:32:01.560 So if we can set aside and segregate these ballots, we should have plenty of time to
00:32:05.700 go through and confirm whether they're citizens or not. I don't know what California is scared of.
00:32:09.700 you know what they're afraid good for you for not saying it i'll say it they're afraid they're
00:32:17.120 afraid they're going to start losing if they if they stop rigging elections uh trent thank you
00:32:22.120 so much i really appreciate it god bless godspeed to everybody in the doj keep up the keep up this

00:32:45.520 Somebody, you know, walks into your driveway at two in the morning wearing a ski mask, carrying
00:32:49.440 a crowbar. Well, I mean, that's probably a good time to stop worrying about your manners. But
00:32:53.120 here's the thing. Most criminals are not looking for a fight. They're looking for an opportunity,

00:33:54.600 Back in a moment.
00:34:02.100 There is nothing more important than what we can do right now than to vote.
00:34:13.280 Our families and neighbors should join us in vote.
00:34:16.240 I've said many times elections are local, but what does that mean?
00:34:19.720 So many Americans walk in and make their choice at the top of the ballot and then they guess down the rest. 0.92
00:34:24.700 Frankly, that's why our local governments are so screwed up.

00:35:18.720 So I want to give you a little inside baseball here.
00:35:25.320 You might have listened to that interview and you heard me ask some questions and you're 0.98
00:35:29.160 You're probably like, well, that's a stupid question, or that's a, what is he saying there? 0.98
00:35:34.480 I want to show you how things work. 0.99
00:35:38.720 We have the DOJ on about California.
00:35:42.600 That's what they come on to talk about.
00:35:45.680 And that was the first time that information has been, you know, heard.
00:35:53.480 That was an exclusive interview.
00:35:55.860 So we needed to cover the California thing that was important.
00:35:58.260 But I also wanted to talk about a couple of other things.
00:36:01.980 Now, you heard me say, you know, I have this feeling.
00:36:07.400 Well, I got this feeling from something that happened later on the show a couple of days ago, three days ago.
00:36:14.800 I had John Solomon on.
00:36:16.400 So I have John on, and he tells me some stuff.
00:36:19.420 And we immediately reach out to some people who are, you know, sources of ours in the government.
00:36:26.480 and we said, hey, we just found out some stuff.
00:36:30.300 And they were like, yeah, let's not, you know,
00:36:35.120 we're not, nobody's ready to talk about any of that stuff yet, okay?
00:36:39.400 So I'm asking him to see if he'll go on record.
00:36:43.740 I want you to know what I was talking about.
00:36:46.520 Listen to John Solomon and what he said earlier this week,
00:36:51.500 just a couple of days ago on this program.
00:36:54.180 This is good news about the DOJ.
00:36:55.860 Listen, all of a sudden you've seen north of 100 non-citizens charged with voting.
00:37:00.940 You got a major criminal investigation in New Jersey about maybe systemic non-citizens getting on the board.
00:37:07.020 You've seen some new actions taken to protect our voting machines.
00:37:11.080 The intelligence that we made public was six years old, but nobody ever acted on it until Donald Trump gave his speech.
00:37:17.640 You heard the other day that John Brennan in a court filing said he was told by prosecutors he's a target.
00:37:24.320 You only give someone a target notification if they're about to be indicted.
00:37:27.900 I see an awful lot of activity in the grand jury talking to defense lawyers, looking at activity and behavior by James Comey and his inner circle.
00:37:38.380 I didn't see that activity for much of the last first 13 or 14 months of the Trump presidency, except in the FBI.
00:37:45.000 The FBI was always churning, but it seems to me that the Justice Department is in a different gear, and that gear has been kicked in for different reasons.
00:37:54.180 understand my questions now um and i have a feeling we're going to be seeing these things
00:38:03.020 soon sooner rather than later not before the election but it's coming the doj has changed
00:38:08.980 ricky do you have any comment on this yeah i'm going to try to be careful i did have a source
00:38:13.440 inside the government um who i spoke to right after your aura ring rant about um the government
00:38:21.980 polluting with private industry, basically spying on citizens. And I was like, what are you guys
00:38:28.040 going to do about this? This is crazy. What can you do? And they were essentially trying to very
00:38:33.500 carefully tell me, there is stuff happening behind the scenes that you don't know about that we try
00:38:39.800 to not tell you because we don't want to jeopardize the case. We don't want to tip off the people that
00:38:45.640 they're investigating. And they don't want to be perceived as being political ahead of the midterms.
00:38:51.980 That the news that we know about Brennan right now that you heard from John Solomon is actually a leak from the deep state inside the DOJ to the media sources trying to alter the outcome of that case.
00:39:05.820 Trying to prepare people.
00:39:07.780 So when you hear me this today and I'm like, OK, look, the president took care of this.
00:39:13.300 You need to move, you know, with the senator, the senators and congressmen.
00:39:17.560 and I sound like I feel like there's some things coming on.
00:39:22.420 It's because I am pretty confident some things are going on
00:39:26.400 in multiple areas that are going to make us very happy.
00:39:31.080 Now, if we're sitting here in spring and nothing's happening,
00:39:34.840 well, then shame on me. Shame on me.
00:39:38.340 your back keeps a receipt for pretty much everything you do trust me i know from experience
00:39:51.820 eight hours in a chair three hours in an airplane that box you should have asked somebody to help 0.99

00:41:17.560 Na na na na
00:41:19.460 Na na na na
00:41:24.780 the fusion of entertainment enlightenment and empowerment this is the glenn beck program
00:41:38.480 hello america it's friday so last hour i was talking to you about the banking situation and
00:41:49.860 And how people, the government has been tracking people with red MAGA hats.
00:41:56.600 This is from the Biden administration.
00:41:59.620 They're tracking about 700,000 Americans.
00:42:02.260 They were closing bank accounts if they disagreed with you.
00:42:06.100 And I told you that this was all part of something called reputational risk.
00:42:10.500 This is something I wrote about in my book, The Great Reset.
00:42:13.860 Came out right around the time.
00:42:15.300 And this was the book that was the first to come out and really expose all of this.
00:42:21.640 And it was called Conspiracy Theory and everything else.
00:42:23.880 And people didn't believe it.
00:42:25.320 You need to, if you didn't get The Great Reset, you need to buy The Great Reset today.
00:42:31.080 Because this is happening.
00:42:33.740 And the government, as I said last hour, if you missed it, you need to go back and listen to glenbeck.com slash Torch or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:42:41.820 But I'll tell you, today is a day Torch is worth its price for the monthly subscription times 10.
00:42:50.060 Because I haven't had time to go through everything.
00:42:52.900 We're going to go through this probably next week.
00:42:56.360 But if you're concerned about your bank and your money, all during the commercials,
00:43:01.000 we have, Jason has been filling you in on all of this information,
00:43:04.620 that it's all in Glenn AI, all of, it's in all of our archives.
00:43:08.920 We'll assemble it for you next week.
00:43:10.820 But if you're really concerned about your bank, go back and listen to today's show at glenbeck.com slash torch and hear what's happening on the Insider Show because we're giving a lot of information.
00:43:24.640 But I will tell you there is good news.
00:43:28.040 The president has signed an executive order to stop all of this reputational risk.
00:43:33.380 They've gone in to the FDIC and banking and all the regulations and removed any language on reputational risk.
00:43:40.240 but if the democrats get back in that will all go back in because nothing's been codified
00:43:47.180 and it is extraordinarily that you don't talk to me about fascism unless you understand
00:43:52.720 what reputational risk is in the financial community so we'll get into that more next uh
00:43:58.420 next week probably on monday we're going to try to really distill it all for you so you have a
00:44:02.960 here's what i need to do if i'm concerned about these things we'll give you a list
00:44:07.720 We've been promised the fat pill, which we now have,
00:44:11.120 and we've been promised the flying car, which apparently we now have.
00:44:15.380 I have to tell you, we are living in the future.
00:44:18.300 It is officially here, and it's, I think, largely due to one guy, Elon Musk.
00:44:24.440 We're going to start there here in 60 seconds.
00:44:26.860 Somewhere in human history, somebody invented the dishwasher.
00:44:31.320 You know, imagine his neighbors.
00:44:32.520 You mean you're going to build an entire machine, hook it up to the plumbing,
00:44:36.400 run electricity through it and you know we won't have to wash any of our dishes we don't have to
00:44:42.020 wash a fork yeah yeah god bless that man you know some jobs are just too tedious which brings me to
00:44:48.860 cleaning out your gutters you climb up a ladder you scoop out a bunch of rotten leaves and you
00:44:53.260 hose everything down and then you wait for the trees to drop another load of garbage on them
00:44:56.780 that's why i like leaf filter their micro mesh gutter protection system it stops you from having

00:45:35.700 Okay, let me, if you happen to be watching us today online or wherever you're watching us,
00:45:41.020 let me play the Tesla Flying Roadster.
00:45:44.860 Yesterday, Elon Musk came out and said,
00:45:47.380 yeah, I decided to combine the car company with SpaceX, and here's what we have.
00:45:53.220 And it's now driving up a straight wall and now upside down.
00:45:58.820 And then flies exactly like Marty McFly's DeLorean.
00:46:04.520 I mean, that is one of the most incredible things I have ever seen.
00:46:08.580 And now in slow motion, it shows.
00:46:12.160 I mean, that's Marty McFly, isn't it?
00:46:16.380 Isn't that the flying DeLorean?
00:46:18.480 Jason? Ricky?
00:46:21.080 It's absolutely incredible.
00:46:22.580 One of the most incredible things, so as it's driving up, it starts, you know, like a normal car, and then it drives up this curve, and it's now vertical.
00:46:36.080 It's not horizontal, and it's driving like at 25 miles an hour, and it's driving vertical.
00:46:41.080 That's because it has these jets from SpaceX that is pushing it towards the wall, and then it comes up to the top, and it runs out of road.
00:46:52.580 and it looks like it's free falling and spinning down
00:46:56.080 and the jets are actually controlling it
00:46:59.420 to level it out and then land the car.
00:47:02.820 It's unbelievable.
00:47:07.280 Can I tell you what?
00:47:08.460 I just love Elon Musk.
00:47:12.580 I think he is the most amazing man alive today.
00:47:18.020 He is Nikolai Tesla.
00:47:20.080 You know, I tweeted something when the president gave him the science award recently, and he said he's Thomas Edison.
00:47:26.380 He's not Thomas Edison.
00:47:28.320 He's Nikolai Tesla.
00:47:29.940 And there's a huge difference between the two.
00:47:33.720 I got to write a book about those two because I hate Thomas Edison.
00:47:38.020 Thomas Edison was a salesman, and he was a good manager.
00:47:42.120 And he would hire people like Nikolai Tesla, who worked for Edison for a while.
00:47:48.380 and he hired people like that to continue to do experiments and he would say look we're gonna
00:47:54.940 we're gonna do this Elon Musk is the guy with the ideas Elon Musk is the guy with who's saying no
00:48:02.040 this is the way we do it SpaceX is his the car company is his and he said I decided to put these
00:48:09.240 two together and I went to them and I said let's make a flying car and he said it might be because
00:48:14.760 I'm crazy, but no, it's because I think Elon Musk is the quintessential American dreamer.
00:48:29.240 I haven't seen an American dreamer like this. You know what the difference is with America and all
00:48:35.240 other countries, all other countries, and we were becoming like this until him, all other countries
00:48:41.380 tell you no there are limits you can't do this you can't do this you can't do this
00:48:45.560 elon musk says why not let's try that we got a rocket company i got a car company we can put
00:48:54.340 these together i know we can make a flying car here's how we do it and he does it and even in
00:49:00.520 the intro when he's saying we're going to show this he's like this may not work he's like this
00:49:06.500 is this one is automated he said this car will not be automated it'll be the only non-automated
00:49:12.100 product that we make if we ever release it he said but this one is he said because we don't
00:49:17.320 want to kill somebody because we're not sure that it's going on this test actually work and so he
00:49:25.260 does it anyway there's nobody that takes these kinds of risks and that's what americans were
00:49:32.700 We were risk takers.
00:49:34.780 You know, I got to tell you, I am, when it comes to danger, I'm a wussy.
00:49:41.000 I am just, I don't like danger.
00:49:43.300 I don't like danger.
00:49:44.680 When it comes to risks, I'll disrupt everything, especially my own life.
00:49:49.460 I will disrupt all the time.
00:49:51.900 And I like the cutting edge.
00:49:54.080 I like living on the edge on technology and what's coming in the future, et cetera, et cetera.
00:49:59.320 I'm fascinated by it.
00:50:01.000 but when it comes to real danger, I don't think he's afraid.
00:50:08.800 I think he would be the first in his rocket.
00:50:12.060 Honestly, I think it's an insurance company that says,
00:50:14.760 no, no, no, no, you're not getting into the rocket.
00:50:18.560 Because everything, so I was talking to somebody and they said,
00:50:22.260 do you own SpaceX or Tesla stock?
00:50:25.820 And I said, yeah, damn right I do.
00:50:28.920 And do you think that's, I mean, I think maybe it's overrated. 0.90
00:50:31.740 I said, really?
00:50:33.340 You want to sell yours to talk to me?
00:50:34.900 Because I'll buy it at a discount if you want to get out.
00:50:38.540 And they said, well, what do you think?
00:50:39.980 I mean, overrated, what do you think is too high of a price?
00:50:42.640 I said, I'm holding onto that stock unless Elon Musk has a terminal illness.
00:50:52.040 Then I'm selling it.
00:50:53.560 Because it is all based on him.
00:50:57.740 It's the only company that I've ever seen that if that guy dies,
00:51:03.080 you know, good luck for SpaceX and everything else
00:51:06.360 because it'll become kind of, I bet it will become like Walt Disney
00:51:09.940 and it will become protective.
00:51:13.440 It will become, you know, what would Elon do?
00:51:17.000 How did Elon think, et cetera, et cetera.
00:51:19.480 And then you can't run a company like that.
00:51:21.860 This guy is absolutely incredible.
00:51:24.280 Let's play number nine here.
00:51:27.260 This is the Flying Roadster jumping over a bunch of cars and trucks.
00:51:36.320 Look at that.
00:51:38.700 Play that again.
00:51:39.900 There it is in slow motion.
00:51:41.520 So like Evil Knievel, except there's no ramp.
00:51:46.420 It's speeding towards these cars and a truck, and it just jumps up.
00:51:52.260 it makes a couple of 360s in the air and then lands softly on the tires
00:51:58.980 i've never seen anything that incredible
00:52:03.060 it's amazing absolutely amazing i you know what on my bucket list of people to meet is elon musk
00:52:15.880 i've met him before but i've never sat down and really talked to him i don't think i could talk
00:52:20.020 to him. I think I would be a bumbling idiot. I think I would, have you ever met anybody where 0.99
00:52:24.360 you're just like, you're just enamored by them and you just think that they're so smart and you're
00:52:29.700 like, I think that's what I would, I would come off. Like he would look at me and go, are you
00:52:35.700 autistic? Uh, I, cause I don't know. I don't know if what I would say to him. Cause I just think he
00:52:43.040 is the most incredible man alive today. I really do. I think he is one of the most important human
00:52:50.280 beings on the planet today because of what he's done for liberty, for the republic, for freedom,
00:52:56.600 for free speech, for believing in no boundaries again. That was the thing about America. We didn't
00:53:04.440 believe in boundaries. We're like, what the hell? Do it. What do you think the Wright brothers were
00:53:09.800 like you know the Wright brothers do you know when the Wright brothers first took off they took
00:53:15.660 off and they took off and they were headed toward a sand dune okay and they take off and it starts
00:53:22.340 to fly and it's really great and all of a sudden they're like go for it man just go for it and so
00:53:28.280 they pull up and it goes over the sand dune and now you're over the water you're over the ocean
00:53:33.560 And they're like, I don't know, it's going to crash in the ocean.
00:53:37.300 Okay, just keep going.
00:53:39.780 I mean, that's who we used to be.
00:53:43.120 Explorers and people who never said, no, I think that's, I don't think we should do that.
00:53:49.580 I think that's too far.
00:53:51.500 I think that's, no.
00:53:54.000 What do you mean, no?
00:53:56.020 I'll strap myself into it.
00:53:57.740 You don't want to do it?
00:53:58.620 That's fine.
00:53:59.160 I believe in this.
00:53:59.860 I'll strap myself into it.
00:54:04.320 I can't believe, I mean, when I was growing up, you know,
00:54:07.740 I grew up in the time of the Jetsons.
00:54:10.580 And when I was growing up, everybody said, oh, the future, you know,
00:54:13.740 by 2020 we'll have, you know, or by the year 2000 we'll have flying cars
00:54:18.200 and no one will be fat because there will be a fat pill.
00:54:21.960 And we didn't get any of that.
00:54:24.460 We're getting it now.
00:54:26.240 We're getting it now.
00:54:27.000 A flying car.
00:54:30.100 And none of that could have been done without AI.
00:54:32.740 There's no way that, there's no way a guy is sitting in that.
00:54:37.460 You know, what confused me about this, he said, this won't be something, this will not be autonomous.
00:54:43.540 This will be something where it requires a person inside the car.
00:54:47.920 Really? Because a person is going to be able to do that?
00:54:52.660 I mean, I can understand I'm pushing launch and land or flip, but I don't think a human could do that.
00:55:02.140 I don't, it's happening too fast.
00:55:04.920 I mean, you don't even see it until they slow it down.
00:55:06.800 Play that again, jumping over the car.
00:55:08.400 When you look at it in, play the other one.
00:55:11.840 Yeah, there.
00:55:12.960 Okay, there it is in real time.
00:55:14.200 You think a human is doing that?
00:55:15.640 No way.
00:55:18.140 Look at it in slow motion.
00:55:19.300 Look how many things have to happen.
00:55:20.820 Those jets are spiraling around the car to direct exactly how it's flowing.
00:55:27.260 It's incredible.
00:55:31.720 here's a real question when can i have one
00:55:39.400 when can i buy this when can i buy i gotta tell you elon because i'll write to elon once in a
00:55:48.240 while and i'll be like when are the robots i want a robot i want the robot because i want a robot
00:55:53.960 for our museum i want to keep it in the box and i want to put it in our museum because it's the
00:55:59.200 first. It's the first. But I also want a robot. You know, I want some sort of a, I need a device
00:56:08.440 where I can shoot it and kill it if I have to as well. Don't think I won't be unarmed around that 0.99
00:56:13.640 thing. But I really want one. And everybody's like, everybody's family's like, you want a robot?
00:56:19.760 Glenn, you don't want a robot. And I'm like, I want a robot. I want a robot. And so I write to
00:56:27.600 elon occasionally like how do we get on the list he's like glenn there is no list when they come
00:56:32.260 out they're going to come out in 2027 first year uh 2028 i think he said the first year 2027 it'll
00:56:38.200 all go to industry mainly uh tesla and spacex he said but it'll all be for industry and i'm like
00:56:46.980 you can count me as an industry i mean i'm in what what kind of industry are you like radio
00:56:52.600 industry we need robots and i'm like just i just want i just want to be on the i just want to be
00:56:58.500 on the i want a robot i want a robot but they're coming they're coming i mean think of that
00:57:05.040 the jetsons had flying cars nobody was fat no mr spacely was fat wasn't he
00:57:12.780 uh and then they had the what was the maid's name the the robot that was a maid we're almost there
00:57:19.860 guys. Yeah, Rosie.
00:57:21.700 Rosie the robot, right?
00:57:24.120 We're there.
00:57:29.460 I mean, I guess it's just like the eight-year-old kid in me
00:57:31.780 that is so excited about this, but I just
00:57:33.520 I'm so excited
00:57:35.660 that we're inventing again.
00:57:37.860 I'm so excited that we're exploring
00:57:39.680 again, that we're doing these
00:57:41.400 amazing things. This is
00:57:43.600 what America is.
00:57:45.960 Ricky.
00:57:47.460 Oh, BJ's telling us to wrap it up, but 0.94
00:57:49.640 I have been begging to get your reaction to a negative Nancy who says that's just a marketing 1.00
00:57:54.260 stunt and the technology is old.
00:57:56.320 Just nobody ever thought of bolting it on a car.
00:57:59.100 So no big deal.
00:58:00.100 Not really a flying car.
00:58:02.100 Oh, yeah.
00:58:02.740 Yeah, I'm going to.
00:58:04.040 Oh, I'll answer that here in just a second.
00:58:06.280 First, let me tell you about relief factor.
00:58:08.700 Your body is fearfully and wonderfully made.
00:58:11.380 It is.
00:58:12.460 It's what scripture tells us.
00:58:14.100 The more we learn about the human body, the more extraordinary that statement becomes.
00:58:18.040 Your heart beats a thousand times every day without giving thought.
00:58:22.000 Your immune system constantly working to protect you.
00:58:24.400 Your body has an amazing ability to heal and repair itself.
00:58:28.040 But that doesn't mean our bodies don't sometimes need help.
00:58:30.420 As we get older, as we play a lot of sports in our life, as we injure ourselves,
00:58:35.760 aches and pains become more and more common.
00:58:37.820 The inflammation, that's part of the body's natural healing process.
00:58:41.520 Maintaining a healthy inflammatory response is important.
00:58:44.540 And that's one reason why I recommend Relief Factor.
00:58:46.920 It's a drug-free supplement designed to support your body's natural inflammation, inflammatory response, and help with everyday aches and pains.
00:58:54.260 And over a million people have tried Relief Factor, and two-thirds of them have gone on to take more.
00:58:58.320 If you're dealing with frequent pain, I encourage you to give Relief Factor a try.
00:59:03.420 It's their three-week quick start.
00:59:04.740 It's $17.76, special price for their 250th, or our 250th.
00:59:11.040 It's Relief Factor.
00:59:12.400 See why people say it has given back their lives.

00:59:34.900 So what is the comment here that this isn't anything exciting? 1.00
00:59:39.500 Yeah, here's a mean old Karen. 1.00
00:59:41.420 She says, this is a marketing stunt.
00:59:42.800 The technology is quite old.
00:59:44.680 Just nobody ever thought of bolting it on a car because it's pointless.
00:59:49.920 Glenn.
00:59:52.380 Okay.
00:59:53.320 Give me the second sentence again.
00:59:55.380 Or the one where she says, but nobody's not new technology.
00:59:58.180 Nobody ever thought of bolting the old technology on a car because it's pointless.
01:00:03.520 You used a fan suction.
01:00:04.700 Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
01:00:07.120 nobody ever thought of bolting it to a car that's the point nobody ever thought of bolting it
01:00:24.840 to a car. 0.99
01:00:28.660 I mean, how dim-witted do you have to be 0.99
01:00:34.220 to not understand that's usually 0.99
01:00:37.260 how great leaps are made?
01:00:39.860 Somebody takes something that somebody else has done
01:00:43.140 and they're like, hey, wait a minute.
01:00:45.340 Let me dumb it down for Karen. 1.00
01:00:47.960 You have peanut butter in my chocolate. 1.00
01:00:51.560 it. I'd like a pineapple pizza, please. I'd like a hot honey pizza, please. I just had hot honey
01:01:08.040 pizza for the first time. Nobody ever thought of putting honey on top of the pizza. It's one
01:01:15.840 of the greatest pizzas I've ever had. Now, I don't put the flying car in the same category as hot
01:01:24.140 honey pizza, but it's the same concept, Karen. No one ever thought of putting those two things
01:01:32.100 together. You are so, wow, wow. You really don't get it, do you, Karen? And then she goes on,
01:01:45.020 and it's pointless it's pointless it's pointless you know talk to me in 25 years
01:01:52.820 talk to me in 25 years do you know what that flying car it let's say that this stabilizes they
01:01:59.540 they pursue it etc so there's a lot of ifs but that's like saying you know the helicopter
01:02:07.380 leonardo da vinci drew one up it's pointless what are we gonna do with the little whirlybird thing
01:02:14.100 Oh, I don't know, Karen.
01:02:16.000 Wait until somebody else thinks about putting that to use.
01:02:20.760 Okay, let me tell you about rapid radio. 1.00
01:02:23.020 People, just stupid people piss me off. 1.00
01:02:26.680 Rapid radios. 1.00
01:02:28.660 Everybody used to want a CB.
01:02:31.640 CB.
01:02:33.760 Now they want a phone without a cord. 0.51
01:02:36.920 Pointless.
01:02:38.860 Truckers had them.
01:02:40.020 Families had them.
01:02:40.780 Half the country was driving around calling them things like rubber duck and bandit.
01:02:45.720 You know, you could be rolling down the interstate, somebody, you know, talking to you that you've never met, warning each other about speed traps and traffic jams and blah, blah, blah.
01:02:55.020 I don't know.
01:02:55.640 There was something wonderfully American about that in the open road.
01:02:59.020 Complete strangers helping each other out and a little bit of freedom on the airwaves.
01:03:02.180 But I'd like to see some of that come back.
01:03:04.120 But, you know, rapid radios is a much better idea.
01:03:07.320 It's just a walkie-talkie.
01:03:08.700 It's pointless.
01:03:09.200 It's not a walkie-talkie, Karen.
01:03:11.500 Somebody said, why don't I take LTE and put it together with a walkie-talkie,
01:03:16.400 and now I can be in Hawaii and talk to somebody in New York City on a walkie-talkie, Karen.
01:03:23.920 It's called Rapid Radios.

01:03:33.800 Last week, we exposed the DSA's global network to Torch Insiders.
01:03:37.060 Then they said, get it out in front of the paywall.
01:03:39.200 Watch it now on Glenn's YouTube and glennbeck.com.
01:03:41.300 Okay, now this is not going to sound
01:04:08.920 like a Good News Friday kind of thing, okay?
01:04:11.300 because we're going to talk about abuse of children.
01:04:14.000 However, the reason why we're having Ryan on
01:04:18.020 is because I think it is a good news thing
01:04:20.960 because something is being done about it.
01:04:26.980 You know, he is the CEO of Teacher Freedom Alliance,
01:04:29.580 national organization, helps teachers leave their unions
01:04:32.320 and defends their right to do so.
01:04:33.920 Let me just celebrate in my head for a minute just on that one.
01:04:38.820 um he also served as oklahoma state superintendent of public instruction where he found uh and fought
01:04:45.380 the teachers unions over curriculum school choice parental rights uh one of the most outspoken
01:04:49.760 education officials in the country um he has written a column for town hall that he contrasts
01:04:59.400 chris hansen you know to catch a predator with the predators in the classroom now i i worked in
01:05:05.260 new york for a while and the teachers unions had like a full floor of bill you know of a building
01:05:10.880 with nothing but these teachers who had been accused of the worst stuff ever and they were
01:05:17.000 just they had to be there between school hours and they would just sit in this room and they would do
01:05:21.740 nothing all day and get paid for it and it's and they you know it's if you've ever thought the
01:05:27.720 Catholic church was bad with moving predators around. Meet your teachers' unions. Ryan is with 0.75
01:05:35.520 us now, Ryan Walters. Hello, Ryan. How are you? Great to see you again, Glenn. Thanks for having
01:05:40.880 me on. Good to see you. So do I have this right? Is there anything there that needs correction?
01:05:48.240 No, sir. I mean, what you see here is examples of how the teachers' unions fight
01:05:54.600 to keep all of their members in the classroom and it doesn't matter what they've done it doesn't
01:05:59.920 matter what they're accused of you see in new york examples of they call them rubber rooms right it's
01:06:03.980 like well they can't be around kids they did something terrible but we'll stick them in this
01:06:08.460 room and still pay for them so you have that example of taxpayers continuing to pay for
01:06:14.840 predators in the classroom but then you have a secondary problem as well which is in so many
01:06:19.880 states, they allow this pass the trash, where they started an investigation of a teacher,
01:06:24.960 the unions become involved, and so the teachers end up being allowed to resign. Investigation
01:06:29.720 stops, and then guess what that teacher does? Gets another job down the road and molests another 0.95
01:06:35.220 child. This is prevalent all over the country. It's got to stop. Several states take aggressive
01:06:40.920 measures there, but it's absolutely outrageous. People know that term, pass the trash. That's
01:06:45.660 exactly what they're meaning by that. So, you know, what's amazing to me is, you know, a lot
01:06:50.320 of people on the left will scream about the Catholic church and they have every right to
01:06:53.780 scream about what happened with the Catholic church, but then they will just turn a blind eye
01:06:57.680 to this. And it is, it is exactly the same thing. One in 10 kids experiences sexual misconduct by a
01:07:04.680 school employee. One in 10. How is that not in the headlines all the time? How do most people
01:07:12.300 not know that? I don't know how this isn't one of the biggest stories in the country. And again,
01:07:19.420 the reason why is you've got the liberal media bias, of course, and they're in bed with the
01:07:22.540 teachers unions. And so they don't want to expose and peel back the problem, which is, again,
01:07:26.180 these unions are there to say, hey, look, we're here to protect you no matter what. We're going
01:07:30.600 to keep your job no matter what. And so they go in, they negotiate these types of agreements with
01:07:35.700 districts. We caught hundreds of these folks in Oklahoma where once we started to investigate,
01:07:40.440 we go well why were they at five districts in six years and again the issues are they build out
01:07:45.760 these processes and procedures makes them incredibly difficult to fire and so then and
01:07:50.680 we ended up holding administrators accountable to saying you don't stop an investigation because
01:07:54.800 someone wants to quit you need to go figure out did they molest a child did they endanger a child
01:08:01.880 and that person number one doesn't need to be teaching again number two should be turned over
01:08:06.380 to law enforcement and prosecuted the fullest extent of the law. But you just see this hasn't
01:08:11.580 been happening across the country. And again, the liberal media don't want to expose that the
01:08:16.100 biggest child predator ring out there is in the school system being protected by and set up by
01:08:21.860 processes by the teachers unions. And so why doesn't this happen? Why aren't these administrators
01:08:29.480 doing that? Well, for them, there are a couple of things. Number one, they don't want the headlines.
01:08:35.780 You know, resigning quietly at a board meeting, you know, signing off on, you know, these teachers aren't coming back is a lot better for them.
01:08:44.760 They see as the headlines of teacher found in these inappropriate situations with multiple children.
01:08:50.200 So they just pass the track.
01:08:51.980 They just move it on to the next district and hope that it never comes back to bite them.
01:08:55.380 And so if there were whistleblowers in those schools, wouldn't that make the administrators less likely to do it?
01:09:08.520 Because if they are afraid of bad press, I don't think there's, I mean, it's bad press to have a teacher abusing a child.
01:09:19.040 it's worse press to have the administration just shove it under the rug fire them and let them go
01:09:25.380 teach at another school isn't it that's right and you know and from our you know when i was at the
01:09:30.740 state department oklahoma you know we had parents obviously turned these uh you know turning these
01:09:35.540 situations but we also had a lot of good teachers that said hey you need to look at this i don't
01:09:39.680 know what my district's doing but this is we've heard about this the stories are rampant you know
01:09:44.840 can you go and investigate this? And then so many times when a district pushes under the rug,
01:09:49.740 now these teachers that flag this behavior now are set up with a situation of, do I continue to
01:09:54.700 speak out publicly and fear retribution from the union, retribution from my bosses, or do I go
01:10:01.040 about my day? And so the reality is, is because of the power that these school administrators,
01:10:06.640 teachers unions have over the districts, you know, a lot of times teachers turn into the bad
01:10:10.860 teachers. And again, what happens next? They don't follow. They don't know necessarily what
01:10:15.820 happens, but also they know if they continue to speak out publicly, again, the unions come after
01:10:21.040 them as taking on their own and going after their own union membership. So Ryan, is this something
01:10:27.120 that you guys can help people do? I mean, they obviously need people who want to say something.
01:10:34.260 They need somebody on their side. Absolutely. That's what we do at the Teacher Freedom
01:10:40.200 alliance is we want good common sense teachers to go in first you know teach the curriculum the way
01:10:44.320 it should not not pushing a left-wing agenda number two is to be whistleblowers is to go in
01:10:49.400 and make sure that what we're doing is protecting all students making sure that what we're doing is
01:10:54.180 protecting those teachers legally when they speak out on issues like this when they're able to come
01:10:58.520 forward and help protect kids and i think it's so essential when we talk about the overall mission
01:11:03.380 of what's being done here the teachers unions injected one billion dollars into politics since
01:11:08.920 2015, a recent report showed. So our partner organization, the Freedom Foundation, has got
01:11:15.000 300,000 union members to lead the unions, costing the unions $870 million. That's $870 million.
01:11:23.740 They can't go in and push policies like this, push the left-wing agenda. So we've got to get
01:11:28.200 folks to lead the unions to decrease their power. And then number two, we've got to mobilize our
01:11:32.880 good teachers through organizations like ours to say, when you're doing the right thing, we've got
01:11:36.760 your back. Parents have your back. Taxpayers have your back. But again, right now they are going up
01:11:41.320 against a multi-billion dollar industry in the teachers union that takes no prisoners. If you
01:11:46.060 speak out against them, if you speak out against what they're doing and how they're spending and
01:11:50.340 the advocacy that they're pushing, they come after you. They dox you. You're targeted in the teacher's
01:11:55.540 lounge. You may not get a job. You may get fired. These are things we've got to be able to continue
01:12:00.760 to do to get our schools back on track or protect the good teachers in the classroom, work with
01:12:04.920 parents work with the communities to ensure that this doesn't continue to happen you have 300
01:12:10.600 300 000 people you have helped leave the teachers unions um uh that is a significant number talk to
01:12:19.860 the teacher right now that feels like i i can't leave the teachers union they'll destroy me talk
01:12:27.020 to that person well let me tell you we have your back uh we want parents communities want
01:12:34.800 good teachers in the classroom. You know, I would say, you know, join our organization,
01:12:38.160 the Teacher Freedom Alliance. We'll give you liability insurance to make sure you're protected
01:12:42.680 there. We'll give you your professional development free of DEI, free of left-wing biases. So you can
01:12:48.200 go in and be the best teacher you can. But I'm going to say, don't leave the classroom. We need
01:12:52.360 great people like you teaching the next generation. We're not willing to give our schools over
01:12:57.860 to a radical Marxist organization like the Teachers Union. We will fight for you. And there
01:13:03.600 are millions of parents and taxpayers around the country that want you in the classroom for the
01:13:09.040 next generation of kids. So join the Teacher Freedom Alliance. We'll have your back. But I'm
01:13:13.520 going to tell you, we work with so many conservative groups across the country that say, yes, these are
01:13:17.760 the type of teachers we want in the classroom. We've got to take our schools back from this
01:13:21.900 radical leftism being pushed by the teachers union. So you're the type of folks that we need.
01:13:26.460 And there's so many young people out there that want to develop their God-given talents. And they
01:13:30.540 want teachers like you that they're seeing at school every day. Here's how big this problem
01:13:36.380 is, America. Los Angeles, just Los Angeles, has set aside $750 million to pay for abuse claims.
01:13:48.820 700. A, who's paying that bill? And is anyone being held accountable?
01:13:55.580 Who's paying that bill? It's the taxpayers. You know, I mean, that's what's, you know,
01:13:59.360 the other part of this is you're endangering kids, but you're seeing these payouts that are
01:14:03.640 happening that's going, hey, this isn't just money, you know, it's not growing on trees here.
01:14:07.360 This is taxpayer dollars that are going in because these districts haven't, number one,
01:14:12.420 done a good job of ensuring the people that they're hiring are of high quality. Number two,
01:14:17.100 they are not dealing with these problems as they arise. I mean, listen, that's the number one
01:14:21.900 priority of the school. Those kids are in your care during the day. They've got to be protected.
01:14:27.580 that is number one. No parent should have to fear that their child's going into school today
01:14:32.220 and could be a target of a sexual predator. Parents should not have to worry about that.
01:14:37.260 But because schools haven't done their jobs, because unions have protected them,
01:14:40.820 that is a real fear here in America today. And I would say most of your viewers, if
01:14:44.640 they know somebody that knows somebody that has dealt with a teacher that was inappropriate with
01:14:49.260 a child, when you look at the statistics, that bears out. And so it is such a troubling endemic.
01:14:54.360 And then you see, you know, Glenn is crazy to me. You see this Hollywood film and they demonize Chris Hansen. You know, he's the bad guy here. You know, the guy that's actually confronting these child predators. We need more confrontations of child predators, especially when they're in our school systems with children all day away from their parents.
01:15:10.580 This should be of the highest priority for schools to ensure the safety of the students there every day.
01:15:17.160 Has anybody tried to sue the teachers' unions, not just the school district, the teachers' unions, for supporting all of this stuff, for putting people in rubber rooms, for not firing people, not pursuing?
01:15:30.720 Is anybody suing them, and has anybody been successful?
01:15:34.660 Because the real cancer here, I believe, is the teachers' union.
01:15:38.720 No, and I'm glad you said that because, yeah, that's peeling back the onion. They're really
01:15:44.580 the ones that have set up these protocols and practices. They're the ones that advocate for
01:15:48.020 this. As far as I know, Glenn, there's been no successful challenge there. We've looked at that
01:15:52.680 as well to say, listen, at what point does accountability come to a system that's built
01:15:56.820 to protect the perpetrator over the victim? I mean, and that's what you got to look at here
01:16:01.600 is if you're a child, if you're a parent, and this happens to you, why is everything set up
01:16:06.020 to make it incredibly difficult for justice to occur, for that individual to be removed and to
01:16:11.620 never be in the school system again, and frankly, be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
01:16:16.240 Why does this continue to happen? Why are DAs not more aggressive on this front?
01:16:20.400 Why do we see repeat offenders in a school system? I agree. That's something that we're
01:16:25.060 always looking at too. We're one of the legal angles here to hold those individuals responsible
01:16:28.940 for these behaviors. If you look at the way the system is set up, it is absolutely set up
01:16:34.480 to make it incredibly difficult to fire teachers, even with the worst accusations before them.
01:16:40.960 Ryan Walters, he is with the Teachers Freedom Alliance CEO. He is a guy who has been fighting
01:16:50.700 for your kids in the classroom for a very, very long time. I want you, if you're a teacher,
01:16:56.540 please explore this. The cancer in our classrooms is the union. I believe in unions when they're
01:17:05.180 balanced. I believe in capitalism when it's balanced, when everybody is operating on good
01:17:11.080 faith and everybody's trying to do the right thing for everyone involved. The balance in the
01:17:16.280 teacher's union is so far skewed that there is no justice. There is absolutely nothing but control
01:17:24.320 and politics and a
01:17:25.840 craven power for
01:17:28.040 I mean a
01:17:28.800 craven pursuit of
01:17:32.020 power. Get out
01:17:34.120 of your teacher's union. Please 0.55

01:17:39.480 teacherfreedomalliance.com
01:17:41.920 be a leader
01:17:43.900 be a groundbreaker, be ahead
01:17:46.120 of the curve. Thank you so much Ryan
01:17:48.000 I appreciate it. God bless. Thank you.
01:17:51.420 Let me tell you
01:17:52.200 about Patriot Mobile. There was a time when you know
01:17:54.120 who you were doing business with, you knew the man who owned the hardware store, you knew the man
01:17:57.880 that, you know, the family that ran the local restaurant. And if you didn't like how somebody
01:18:01.800 treated you, you know, what they stood for, you took your business someplace else. That was just
01:18:05.520 common sense. Somewhere along the way, we handed more and more of our economy over to these giant
01:18:10.640 corporations that don't share our values. And then we act surprised when they use the money
01:18:14.580 and influence to advance things that we disagree with. You still have a choice. That's why I want
01:18:19.960 you to look at Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile is a Christian conservative wireless provider
01:18:23.480 that supports the values that you care about,
01:18:26.660 faith and family and freedom and the Constitution.
01:18:29.500 They offer coverage on all three major networks,
01:18:31.820 competitive plans, and American-based customer support.
01:18:34.860 You can even keep your existing number and your phone,
01:18:37.320 and you're supporting a company that actually shares your principles.

01:20:06.080 underestimate republicans by two to four points well remember all that blue that was on the map
01:20:11.660 before all that blue went bye-bye see you later adios amigos sayonara those democratic chances
01:20:19.060 and those Democratic hopes down there into Lake Erie.
01:20:22.960 Look at this.
01:20:23.680 Now what we're dealing with,
01:20:25.000 if in fact the polls underestimate the Republicans,
01:20:28.180 is 53 Republican Senate seats
01:20:30.940 compared to 47 Republican seats.
01:20:33.220 So a very clear Republican win in the Senate
01:20:35.320 if the polls are underestimating the Republicans
01:20:37.540 like perhaps they did in 2020,
01:20:40.500 like they did in 2016, so on and so forth.
01:20:43.400 If the polls undershot the Republicans
01:20:45.480 by greater than three points,
01:20:47.300 well, that's all you need.
01:20:48.300 That's all you need for Republicans in order for them to actually probably hold on to the U.S. House of Representatives.
01:20:55.440 They would likely win 218-plus House seats.
01:21:02.720 Let's just, I'm not going to say anything.
01:21:07.260 Don't say anything.
01:21:09.100 You had me at 218-plus House seats.
01:21:12.980 We're just going to leave it there.
01:21:15.240 Oh, yeah.
01:21:16.540 Oh, yeah. 0.99

01:23:17.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:23:23.680 Hello America, it's Friday and my favorite history geek in the world is joining me in 60 seconds.
01:23:34.980 Stand by. First, let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.
01:23:37.660 We live in the most convenient civilization in human history.
01:23:41.300 You can order replacement toothbrush at midnight and somebody will leave it on your porch before you finish breakfast.
01:23:46.800 You can have groceries delivered without leaving your couch.
01:23:49.660 There are people who haven't set foot in the store for years and somehow their refrigerators are always full.
01:23:54.100 We got the flying car yesterday.
01:23:58.420 However, there is a catch.
01:23:59.640 All of that convenience depends on an enormous system working exactly the way it's supposed to.
01:24:03.780 And the trucks have to run.
01:24:05.020 The warehouses have to operate.
01:24:06.420 nilon musk needs to be alive now the power has to stay on the roads have to remain open and that's
01:24:11.920 why i recommend my patriot supply they offer emergency food kits with up to 25 years of
01:24:17.700 shelf life packed in convenience stackable containers you can store until you you know
01:24:22.080 need them and you can get a four-week supply or even a three-month supply so if your family has
01:24:27.020 you know food available when the stores don't um that's a good thing keep it to yourself
01:24:31.800 preparewithglenn.com go there now you can save almost 300 in a complete bundle don't wait for
01:24:37.360 the forecast to send everybody running into the stores don't be that person preparewithglenn.com
01:24:42.380 keep your winter prep bundle available in your home right now preparewithglenn.com brad melzer
01:24:49.440 my man how are you uh good to see you brother it is uh it's really good to see you i wish we were
01:24:56.420 uh in the same room together because i i'm i'm a little geeking out i know you have the right
01:25:00.440 brother's book out today and i think it is so appropriate because of the flying car did you see
01:25:06.240 that brad with elon musk i literally was like i almost thought it was like you planned it because
01:25:11.660 i was like when we were figuring out when we should talk i was like i said to my wife when i
01:25:16.540 saw last night i was like this is iron man this it's literally using you can see right there as
01:25:23.020 it goes out it yes you know the it's like he just needs repulsor rays and that's it i can hear the
01:25:28.640 Jetson's music. I can hear the Iron Man theme. It is real. And then my second thought was,
01:25:35.360 my first thought was how cool. My second thought was, are people going to be doing this on the
01:25:40.660 roads? Because if they are, we're all screwed. We're screwed. We're totally screwed. Yeah. 0.94
01:25:45.880 So let me ask you this. I said last hour that I think Elon Musk is single-handedly
01:25:56.440 bringing back the excitement of invention,
01:26:01.960 of being an American with no limits.
01:26:05.980 He is, you know, Trump said he is the Edison of our day.
01:26:10.900 He's not.
01:26:11.520 He is the, you know, the Tesla of our day.
01:26:15.080 He is an incredible mind that is changing everything.
01:26:21.040 Do you think history will remember him this way?
01:26:23.820 so he i think he's complicated i think he his technology is you know no one can touch it it's
01:26:30.760 right there's no doubt about it you can't look at that video of the car um i used to have a tesla
01:26:37.780 right i know what it's like to drive them what i will tell you is um he's complicated because of
01:26:45.200 you know i when i wish he had more empathy i just do i'm just being honest because you you know we
01:26:52.040 love each other and we're always honest about it i think that history is full of of complicated
01:26:56.920 people and we can't have them all be the way we want but i think that's honestly going to be one
01:27:01.800 of the things that you look at that we're all trying to square and and the wright brothers
01:27:06.020 listen they had that too right the wright brothers watched this amazing technology they had they
01:27:12.520 built this thing out of a beauty and love for creation and then they turned it over and said 0.82
01:27:17.540 wait, World War I, they're going to use it to kill people. So it's complicated, right? And I know we
01:27:23.100 always want to make our history simple, but you and I know better than just about anybody that
01:27:27.960 whenever we try and put someone up on the platform and make them perfect, only God's perfect.
01:27:34.480 Oh, I don't think he's perfect. I don't think he's, yeah, I don't think he's perfect by any
01:27:38.520 stretch of the imagination and i you know i have um i have often said that elon musk uh is
01:27:45.920 is absolutely incredible but also could be responsible for creating the end of the world
01:27:56.120 i mean well you know someone sent me yesterday and tesla was like that tesla was like that
01:28:01.980 someone sent me last night when that clip ran it was the scene from the matrix
01:28:07.080 and there's this moment where Keanu Reeves is talking to Morpheus and they're talking and he
01:28:14.140 says, remember the moment? We don't know when it was, but it was the moment when AI took over.
01:28:20.300 We don't know who took action first, us against them or them against us. And the headline of
01:28:25.360 the Matrix thing said, remember when you saw this movie and you thought it was fiction?
01:28:29.980 And it was one of those moments that just hit me, right? I mean, it hit me. And as someone who's a
01:28:35.680 writer, my books have trained AI. Your words have trained AI. And you can write like Brad Meltzer
01:28:43.280 now. You can go in and a friend of mine said to me, watch this. And this is a couple of years ago.
01:28:47.140 And he said, and he took a paragraph and said, write it more like Brad Meltzer. And I read it
01:28:51.380 and I was like, this isn't great, but it's not bad. It was just like me. And so, you know, again,
01:28:58.300 every great technology in the history of MAM has been used for good and it's been used for bad.
01:29:05.680 And I just hope we have the right things in place to make sure that we don't – we see it coming.
01:29:13.440 Yeah, we don't.
01:29:16.080 I'm with you.
01:29:17.080 I'm with you. 0.89
01:29:18.060 Let me go to the Wright brothers for a second.
01:29:22.940 You hear this.
01:29:24.100 There's three people, I think, three different – one in Europe, I think, one in South America, and then, of course, the Wright brothers that all say they came up with the airplane first.
01:29:34.960 Do we know that the Wright brothers came up with the airplane first?
01:29:39.000 Listen, I believe the Wright brothers came up.
01:29:41.320 There are stories of other people, right?
01:29:43.360 And even before the Wright brothers, there's a guy named Otto, I think it's Lilienthal,
01:29:47.580 I pronounced it correctly, from Germany.
01:29:49.560 They used to call him the flying man.
01:29:51.480 And he was the first guy who built like a glider, and he would jump off a high spot
01:29:57.200 and go for 10, 12 seconds gliding down.
01:30:00.380 One of the great inspirations for the Wright brothers, they used to watch him and say,
01:30:03.580 look what he's doing this flying man in germany is actually flying and obviously all he was really
01:30:08.420 doing was gliding and there are people who say it i don't believe it i think the right brothers
01:30:13.980 are the first ones to prove it the first ones to show it what's amazing is if i you know if i had
01:30:20.300 a mentor the auto the flying man just just as a footnote eventually dies he dies trying to fly
01:30:26.580 and the right brothers see this and if if i'm if i have a and you know me long enough to know
01:30:32.580 if I have this thing that I want to do and my mentor dies doing it, I'm probably like, you know
01:30:37.880 what? Maybe I should pick up a new hobby. But the Wright brothers are like, no, it's up to us now.
01:30:43.860 Maybe get a new mentor.
01:30:45.920 Right. A new mentor, new thing to do. How about walking? Maybe walking instead of flying. But
01:30:50.280 the Wright brothers, what I love about them is they have all these people across the world
01:30:54.000 competing against them. They have in the United States, there's people who have government
01:30:57.560 contracts. There's millionaires who have money. There's all these people because at that time,
01:31:01.900 no one thinks anyone can fly nobody they think it's truly impossible the Wright brothers in fact
01:31:07.560 at the start they basically say let's bring some people out to watch us do our thing Glenn five
01:31:14.220 people show up five I have more people in my book signings and I didn't you know and I didn't create
01:31:18.780 the airplane but yeah because no one thinks it could be done and then the Wright brothers beat 0.94
01:31:24.460 the millionaires beat the men with the government contracts beat the German who's out there trying
01:31:29.580 to do it himself. They beat everybody, two brothers from the middle of the country. And 0.51
01:31:34.720 what I love is, this is the 40th book in our kids' book series. And we actually gave America
01:31:41.060 the chance to vote. We said, you pick who you want. You can pick anybody. And it came down to
01:31:46.480 Taylor Swift, LeBron James, and the Wright brothers. And I had the same exact reaction,
01:31:54.900 which was, I know who's going to win here. I know who's going to win. And America picked the
01:32:00.020 Wright brothers. And I actually think, and you know this, when America votes like that,
01:32:05.880 it means something. And I love the fact that of all the famous people they can pick and the
01:32:10.860 millionaire overpaid athletes and everyone they could choose, they chose two brothers from Ohio
01:32:15.720 who had nothing but teamwork and ingenuity and perseverance. And that says something. Those
01:32:21.580 values endure those values matter and we know that you know there are key values that americans
01:32:28.380 truly still hold on to and i think we owe it to our kids today to bring them ourselves into that
01:32:33.900 age of inspiration because we're in an age of anger right now we're in an age of fighting and
01:32:37.900 division we need to show our kids an age of inspiration and use our own sense of ingenuity
01:32:43.180 our own sense of collaboration and give our kids better heroes so was so
01:32:49.380 were it was it a race like it's a race now to ai to fly did did the rich people that the
01:32:58.700 inventors think we are on the verge of flight it just was the rest of the people that didn't and
01:33:03.980 if so what set the wright brothers apart when they didn't have any of the resources
01:33:09.660 to be able to do it?
01:33:11.860 This is a super question.
01:33:13.560 So let's talk about where it comes from.
01:33:15.340 Why are the Wright brothers the Wright brothers?
01:33:17.240 When they're kids growing up in Dayton, Ohio,
01:33:20.200 their father comes home one day.
01:33:22.020 The boys are seven and 11 years old.
01:33:24.280 And the dad opens his hand and says, here you go, boys.
01:33:26.780 And he throws this toy helicopter.
01:33:29.020 It's a, you know, we call it a helicopter,
01:33:31.080 but it's a propeller with a rubber band on it, right?
01:33:33.980 Like, and just goes whipping into the air.
01:33:36.180 But these boys at seven and 11 years old
01:33:38.600 become obsessed with it.
01:33:39.660 They start timing how long it'll stay in the air,
01:33:42.500 how high it will go, they measure it.
01:33:44.240 If we wind it higher, will it go higher?
01:33:46.740 And that's why they fall in love with flight.
01:33:49.000 But why do they learn to build?
01:33:50.860 It's their mother.
01:33:52.100 It's their mom who's the tinkerer.
01:33:53.720 Her father was a builder
01:33:55.420 and she used to build their sleds, build their toys.
01:33:59.160 One of the great American things, 0.97
01:34:00.440 building things for ourselves.
01:34:02.200 And that's when they come home one day,
01:34:04.440 one of the boys has taken apart the family sewing machine.
01:34:07.780 Now I can tell you growing up,
01:34:09.660 may my mother rest in peace if i took apart the sewing machine my mother would have murdered she'd 1.00
01:34:14.660 kill me right like that she would kill it right the wright brothers parents come home and they're
01:34:19.640 like fantastic fantastic and they nurture that love of curiosity they nurture that love of building 0.95
01:34:26.460 and tinkering that's why the wright brothers the wright brothers and the reason why the wright
01:34:30.880 brothers can do what no one else can do is because they have that and what they see is is everyone
01:34:36.520 else is basing it on wingspan and how big it is. And that's what flight's got to be. The glider in
01:34:42.340 Germany, they're trying to make it wider and taller. But the Wright brothers start studying 0.95
01:34:46.980 kites. They start studying birds. They're like, these things look different. A bird is a weird
01:34:52.480 object, but somehow it's staying aloft and it can turn. And they realize that one wing goes up
01:34:57.780 and one wing goes down. And when it turns, it looks like a windmill. That's the key observation
01:35:04.320 that the Wright brothers build their entire plane around
01:35:07.060 is that birds are doing this.
01:35:10.480 And so if birds can do this,
01:35:12.020 and if animals can do this,
01:35:13.600 then certainly we can.
01:35:14.640 And nobody else thinks we can.
01:35:15.920 The people building it certainly think they can,
01:35:17.560 but nobody in the world thinks that flight
01:35:21.120 is ever, ever going to be possible.
01:35:23.980 But these two brothers in Ohio prove everybody wrong.
01:35:28.360 Brad Meltzer is the author of a book series
01:35:31.180 sold well over 10 million books now.
01:35:34.320 We Are the Wright Brothers is the latest in the series.
01:35:37.580 They're great for kids to teach principles and to teach history.
01:35:41.920 They're really, really great.
01:35:46.680 Somebody just called me last hour, wrote into the show, and said about Elon Musk,
01:35:53.020 this isn't new.
01:35:54.340 He just took all the thrust from SpaceX, and then he bolted it to a car.
01:36:01.060 it's like yeah that's how inventions work you know nobody starts from scratch and says i've got
01:36:08.300 something entirely new they usually take and correct me if i'm wrong most inventions come
01:36:14.180 from wait a minute that idea that idea and that idea put them together and what do we have
01:36:21.020 listen the wright brothers they're in what they do is all these other millionaires all these other
01:36:27.780 people have government contracts they're building engines and they're testing these big engines
01:36:31.840 and the Wright brothers are like we don't have the money to do that we can't build another engine and
01:36:37.480 another engine and another engine so what they start building are little toy ones little tiny
01:36:42.240 little versions of it and then they they build this little wind tunnel in their bicycle shop
01:36:47.120 it's like in the bicycle shop where they're building and by the way the only reason that
01:36:51.560 they have a bicycle shop is back then it's the time where you know those old timey bikes where
01:36:56.420 it's like a giant wheel in the front and a tiny wheel in the back and god knows why anyone thought
01:37:00.260 that was a good idea but eventually they start they start making these two-wheel bikes right
01:37:06.400 these two the bike bicycles that we know them today are two-wheel bikes and and they and everyone's
01:37:11.820 like oh i want a two-wheel bike and that becomes the craze that everyone wants a two-wheel bike
01:37:17.080 as we know bikes today and the wright brothers and that was right brothers no the wright brothers
01:37:21.960 are no that they see what's happening and the wright brothers say wait a minute if everyone
01:37:25.360 wants these two-wheel bikes, there's going to be a lot of broken two-wheel bikes. So they open up
01:37:30.880 a bicycle shop to repair them. And that's where they start really honing their skills as builders.
01:37:36.940 And it's in this bicycle shop that you can still go visit when you go to Dayton. You can still go
01:37:41.640 see it. In this bicycle shop, they build tiny little versions and they start building on what
01:37:47.900 other people are doing. Oh, this flying man in Germany built a glider. Let's build our own
01:37:52.700 glider let's see how we can get it to stay aloft and then we'll build it to scale and so obviously
01:37:57.760 you know knowledge is always something where you're building on top of each other one of the
01:38:02.220 first things the right brothers do is they write to the smithsonian and they say listen we don't
01:38:06.900 have any books can you send us some books on flying and on birds i love that i love that they
01:38:13.040 use other people's knowledge to build on that knowledge because that's the only way we all go
01:38:17.660 forward it has to yeah it has to uh brad hang on just a sec i gotta break for one minute back
01:38:22.400 for Brad Meltzer.
01:38:23.760 The new book is
01:38:25.080 We Are the Right Brothers
01:38:26.540 available everywhere
01:38:27.360 for your kids now.
01:38:28.640 Let me tell you about Mercury One.
01:38:29.960 There are some rooms
01:38:30.680 you walk into
01:38:31.300 that just make you feel better
01:38:32.340 about the future.
01:38:33.260 Not because, you know,
01:38:34.320 of the building
01:38:34.860 or how fancy the event is,
01:38:36.080 but because the people
01:38:36.820 in the room,
01:38:37.640 they share your values,
01:38:39.060 that people believe
01:38:39.920 in something bigger
01:38:40.700 than themselves,
01:38:41.880 people who have done something.
01:38:43.260 They haven't given up
01:38:44.000 on each other
01:38:45.380 and haven't given up
01:38:46.180 on the idea of America.
01:38:47.940 That's the kind of room
01:38:48.920 that I always want to be in,
01:38:50.200 and that's why I'm so excited

01:39:45.860 Back in 10 seconds after station ID.
01:39:50.720 so brad um how concerned are you about ai how concerned are you about you know what we started
01:40:10.540 talking about when you were talking about elon musk these guys they're they all are
01:40:16.760 lacking human empathy. They all are like this, it seems. And some of them are so arrogant and also
01:40:29.860 have this thing about living forever and they seem to be godless, meaning they don't believe
01:40:38.320 in the soul, which if you're godless, then what is your connection to humans and the soul and
01:40:44.260 everything else. How concerned are you that we are on the edge of something really bad?
01:40:50.700 For exactly the reason you said. And I think right now, if you look at what AI is doing,
01:40:56.900 it's making us angry, right? Social media is making us angry. Politicians are making us angry.
01:41:03.540 Even cable is making us angry. Why? Why do AI companies and social media want us so angry?
01:41:09.340 because angry people vote, angry people watch,
01:41:13.540 angry people will scroll endlessly on their phone.
01:41:17.300 And to me, this is quote, Glenn,
01:41:20.240 that has been haunting my brain.
01:41:22.560 And it says, be the reason people believe in good.
01:41:26.460 Be the reason people believe in good.
01:41:29.660 And to me, that's what my mission
01:41:31.900 with this kids book series has always been, right?
01:41:33.760 It's not to teach kids history,
01:41:35.360 but it's to show you and your kids how to make history.
01:41:38.660 And what I worry about AI, and I think it's exactly what you were getting at, is we're so worried about racing forward for me, me, me, me, me, look what I can do to me. I'm going to live forever. I'm going to do this. I'm basically stronger and bigger than God, as opposed to saying, should we? Should we be doing this? And is this better for everybody?
01:41:59.560 And I can tell you as a writer who's fed the AI platform, I tried, it was really fascinating. I tried to see if AI, someone challenged me and said, can AI write one of your books? So I had done a book on Simone Biles, a kid's book. I am Simone Biles. We did it to teach kids about mental health, kids struggling with mental health.
01:42:17.980 and I gave it all of my research.
01:42:21.920 I put it into AI.
01:42:23.760 I said, just use my research only
01:42:25.920 and see if you can do the book.
01:42:28.280 And it says, okay, let me plot the book out for you.
01:42:30.280 And it gives me an outline,
01:42:31.300 which I don't outline anymore.
01:42:32.360 I know how the book's going to go,
01:42:33.500 but I'm like, okay, that's fair.
01:42:35.040 I said, do you want me to write the first few pages?
01:42:36.780 I say, sure.
01:42:38.120 So writes the first few pages
01:42:39.720 and it says where she grew up.
01:42:41.860 And then her mother, you know,
01:42:43.400 she has to go live with,
01:42:44.800 her mother abandons her
01:42:45.760 and she has to get adopted by her grandparents.
01:42:47.440 I say, stop here. I said, but show me how she knows she's loved by her grandparents. I said, but only use the research I gave you that I know it can be counted on, not stuff from the internet. And the AI came back to me and said, oh, her grandfather pats her on the head and says, I love you, which never happened. And I said, why did you make that up? That's a lie. It's not even right in history. 0.63
01:43:11.300 and it said, oh, that's a literary flourish.
01:43:13.500 And I'm like, oh my gosh.
01:43:14.460 I'm like, stop lying
01:43:15.560 and give me only the answers based from my real race.
01:43:18.900 And it couldn't do it.
01:43:20.060 And eventually I kept trying to give it hints.
01:43:21.680 I'm like, it's when she comes out of the,
01:43:23.680 she's with her grandmother,
01:43:24.880 she comes out of the shower, something with her hair.
01:43:26.980 And what this answer was,
01:43:28.800 it's a moment where after she's adopted by her grandparents,
01:43:32.180 she comes out of the bath
01:43:33.500 and her grandmother braids her hair
01:43:35.400 and combs her hair and braids it.
01:43:37.780 And that feeling she has
01:43:39.300 When her grandmother's arms are around her, that feeling of love fills her up.
01:43:45.520 But AI couldn't recognize that because it hasn't ever loved before.
01:43:49.680 And to me, as someone very smart said, my daughter said, AI is the smartest thing, but it has no taste.
01:43:58.920 Brad, thank you.
01:44:00.560 God bless you.
01:44:01.220 We'll talk again.
01:44:02.120 We are the Wright Brothers, available everywhere you get books and get it for your kid.
01:44:06.560 All right.
01:44:07.760 Let me tell you about Friend Factor.
01:44:09.300 You have an entire world outside your front door.
01:44:12.260 You have your job, your friends, your responsibility, your interest,
01:44:15.000 and a thousand different things competing for your attention every day.
01:44:18.280 But your dog, his whole world is a lot smaller.
01:44:20.860 There's the house, there's the backyard, maybe a favorite park, a few toys.
01:44:24.060 Above all, there's you.
01:44:25.800 You're the center of his world, the person he waits for, the person he trusts,
01:44:29.020 the person he depends to take care of him.
01:44:31.080 It's a pretty big responsibility.
01:44:32.620 And as our dogs start to slow down,
01:44:34.420 they experience the same challenges that we do as humans, as we start to.
01:44:39.300 slow down, reduce mobility, difficult doing things that used to come easily.
01:44:43.760 That's why I want you to know about Friend Factor.
01:44:45.380 It's a daily supplement developed for your dog by the founders of Relief Factor,
01:44:51.220 designed to support your dog's joint health, mobility, health, inflammatory response.
01:44:56.660 It's a simple way to help support your dog's comfort and activity as he ages.
01:45:01.920 You know, there's nothing sadder than watching your dog when they can't get into the car anymore.
01:45:06.500 They can't just jump into the back of the truck.
01:45:08.080 At least that wasn't for mine or being able to watch him walk up the stairs anymore.

01:46:13.100 uh for all the behind the scenes but uh speaking of that uh ricky uh well let me get into this
01:46:19.420 first uh jason play that clip from elon musk we were talking about the car you know the flying
01:46:25.200 car and i think elon musk yes yes yes he could very well turn out to be the antichrist let's
01:46:33.280 just admit it let's just admit it yes he could however getting to that place is kind of exciting
01:46:40.640 you know might end horribly we might all be beheaded and have to take you know the mark
01:46:46.100 in our forehead but until that time he is a remarkable guy um and you know yesterday the
01:46:54.840 Flying Car was released.
01:46:57.240 This is him in 2018.
01:46:59.620 For anybody who thinks, oh, well, he just put a bunch of stuff together.
01:47:03.440 This is him in 2018 explaining with Joe Rogan the Flying Car concept.
01:47:08.780 Listen to this.
01:47:09.960 We're going to put rocket thrusters on it.
01:47:12.300 For real?
01:47:13.160 Yes.
01:47:13.500 What are they going to burn?
01:47:14.720 Nothing.
01:47:15.960 Ultra high pressure, compressed air.
01:47:18.760 Whoa.
01:47:19.540 Just air?
01:47:20.080 Cold gas thrusters.
01:47:21.860 Do you have to have air tanks or are they sucking the air out?
01:47:24.540 Okay.
01:47:25.260 Yeah, it's an electric pump.
01:47:26.640 Whoa.
01:47:27.320 Pump it up to like 10,000 PSI.
01:47:28.940 And how fast?
01:47:31.100 So you already know.
01:47:32.200 How fast do you want to go?
01:47:34.780 He knew exactly how to do it.
01:47:37.380 He knew exactly how to do it back in 2018.
01:47:40.360 And so he got together.
01:47:41.920 I love the opening yesterday when he was talking.
01:47:43.960 He was like, you know, it could be that I'm crazy.
01:47:49.560 But I had a car company and a rocket company.
01:47:51.620 And I decided, hey, let's build this.
01:47:53.280 And so we do.
01:47:54.120 and it's an amazing thing.
01:47:57.060 And you can get his Roadster
01:47:58.440 if you put down, what is it, $50,000?
01:48:00.900 You can get the Roadster.
01:48:01.900 You can be on the list for the Roadster.
01:48:04.540 And if you want the Roadster,
01:48:09.240 what do they call it, Ricky?
01:48:12.100 If you want the thrust package, it's like...
01:48:15.180 The thrust package, okay.
01:48:17.360 Ricky has been, unbeknownst to her,
01:48:20.000 innocently all day, 0.97
01:48:21.080 talking about the suck and thrust package, 0.98
01:48:24.480 which I would like you to stop saying 0.96
01:48:28.340 because I have to call HR.
01:48:30.000 I would too.
01:48:30.560 I would too.
01:48:32.840 But anyway, so that is, I guess,
01:48:36.940 if you get it with a thrust package,
01:48:38.680 which is zero to 60 in less than a second,
01:48:42.460 you have to put a $250,000 deposit.
01:48:46.360 But it looks absolutely incredible.
01:48:49.760 I mean, I don't know when you'd ever use it, but it is absolutely incredible.
01:48:56.120 Now, speaking of those packages, Ricky and Michaela, is Michaela on the phone?
01:49:06.760 Hi, Michaela.
01:49:08.240 Hi, Glenn.
01:49:10.180 Hi.
01:49:10.820 So I found out, you know, about four o'clock my time this morning that you and Ricky tend to find socialist men hot.
01:49:26.660 Michaela, give the context.
01:49:30.160 The context for this is that we have a group text where the team for Glenn chats.
01:49:36.060 and we were talking about how Hassan Piker is actually really not that intelligent. I said,
01:49:41.820 I listened to a whole interview. I actually watched a whole interview with Hassan Piker
01:49:45.880 and I said, he's really just good looking and radical, but he's not bright at all.
01:49:50.800 And everyone said, he's good looking. Michaela loves communists. I said, there's no way he gets
01:49:56.720 away with being who he is. He streams seven hours a day if he's not good looking. No one's doing
01:50:02.120 that with an unattractive overweight communist that's not happening he has to be good looking 0.94
01:50:06.940 or the whole thing falls apart so wait a minute so wait a minute are you alleging now that you 0.86
01:50:12.480 didn't find no no no that you didn't find him hot i do i think you find him hot the things that i
01:50:19.580 brought on national radio to talk about are so embarrassing yeah i know i know that's what i do
01:50:25.920 for a living um and then and then is it true that you went the step further and talked about mom
01:50:33.900 donnie the same way i i don't spend hours doing this i mentioned a couple days ago that i think
01:50:41.580 that he's also a nice looking man which is also how he gets away with being so radical i said he's
01:50:48.060 nice looking he's charming when you listen to him he seems kind it's just all of his ideas are bad
01:50:53.400 or evil so what you're saying is ricky then twisted this because there's a difference between
01:51:00.280 saying he's a nice looking man and hot no ricky would never twist anything i want that on the
01:51:07.880 record that's right girl now it is interesting because wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute
01:51:15.480 wait a minute wait a minute there is something wrong here because if you find this guy there's
01:51:20.740 one thing to say no he's a good looking guy I can understand it but one thing to say uh he's a good
01:51:26.120 looking man and I don't know I I think he's kind of hot because there's nothing hot about mom Donnie
01:51:31.480 the the guy is there there's no woman that is attracted to somebody who's like you know what
01:51:37.520 I'm gonna do a rap album let's do a rap and then oh oh oh I got an idea let's do a grocery store
01:51:44.820 too. The guy is so non-male. He is such a wuss in life. I mean, he could approach me. Look, 0.99
01:51:57.620 I am the biggest wuss in the world. I would never worry about crossing the street if Mom Donnie was 0.98
01:52:05.480 coming my way. If he was looking menacing, I'm going to be so menacing. I'm going to just,
01:52:10.940 i'm gonna get i'm gonna go approach glenn beck like i'm gonna beat the snot out of him i'm not 0.89
01:52:16.220 crossing the street i'm not crossing the street i know how to throw a punch more than that guy does
01:52:21.720 and i don't know how to throw a punch the guy is not a guy he's not so i don't know how anybody
01:52:28.140 finds i don't know how any woman is attracted to i gotta do a grocery store and i've been living
01:52:35.220 off my mom's money my whole life come on we're talking about hot should we bring jason in
01:52:41.080 yes we should and we should talk about aoc and his crush on her that little weirdo socialist girl
01:52:48.120 let's jason hang on just a second wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute
01:52:53.080 jason with sunglasses on or without sunglasses sunglasses on preferably right sunglasses on
01:53:02.760 okay okay you can understand you can understand that you're talking or not talking oh gosh not
01:53:11.200 talking sunglasses i agree with him that's our point it's like they okay biology says women 0.99
01:53:22.420 like dudes with beards and like darker skin typically it's like uh it goes back biology
01:53:29.320 says that yes it's anthropological biology stuff we like beards handsome darker features that's
01:53:38.080 like we're attracted to that what i'm not attracted to is a single word that comes out of their mouth
01:53:43.420 just like jason no but but but listen listen there's a guy who can walk up to you and then
01:53:50.560 there's a guy who swishes up to you i'm sorry but there's nothing there's no biological juice that
01:53:58.440 should be running in your body with a guy who's swishing up to you hey girl what do you say we
01:54:04.280 go to the grocery show and go shopping i'm gonna save all kinds of money because it's on the
01:54:08.680 taxpayer it's not happening there's no there's no biological juices running there none let's just
01:54:16.000 pretend he's a constitutional conservative then he's kind of hot right and there it is
01:54:22.480 well no wait wait a minute wait a minute hang on just a second let's just say this
01:54:27.920 a constitutional conservative is not like i can't make it i just can't make it everybody's
01:54:34.720 against me the whole system is rigged against me a constitutional conservative is like get out of
01:54:40.960 my way i'll show you how we can do this yeah that's kind of hot we didn't it's kind of hot
01:54:46.660 For a guy, I would think that's kind of hot.
01:54:49.360 I didn't get the no talking option that Jason got.
01:54:53.340 Okay, so wait a minute.
01:54:55.340 Wait, wait, wait.
01:54:56.120 But I'm not talking about talking.
01:54:58.140 I'm not talking about talking.
01:54:59.840 He's got the no talking and the no sunglasses.
01:55:02.220 You could put no talking and no sunglasses on Mondani,
01:55:06.660 and he's still having to saunter up to you.
01:55:10.100 You know, he's still having to walk across the room to you.
01:55:13.280 He still needs to move.
01:55:16.660 The very serious point that Michaela has been trying to make is 1.00
01:55:20.800 liberal women are prey to these, 0.91
01:55:26.680 I guess you want to call them beta boys, fine, 1.00
01:55:28.580 but the guys that are pretty good looking with a beard
01:55:30.800 and really bad ideas. 1.00
01:55:32.640 Liberal women are prey to them. 1.00
01:55:34.300 Michaela and I have a force field 1.00
01:55:36.080 where we can objectively observe,
01:55:40.080 that's a pretty good looking guy,
01:55:42.180 while also turning away from the bad ideas.
01:55:45.020 That's the lesson here.
01:55:46.660 and i completely understand i completely understand that if he wasn't so swishy
01:55:55.560 i don't know i don't know women i just don't know what is attractive to a guy who's gonna
01:56:02.480 throw you in front i don't care what you do with i don't care what you do with the women just leave
01:56:07.260 me alone i i mean and if you don't think about the girl i'm donnie what's attractive about the
01:56:15.920 girl, AOC, who just yesterday said
01:56:18.040 women can't go to college because 1.00
01:56:19.880 the government won't pay for it. Literally every 1.00
01:56:21.980 woman on this staff went to college. 1.00
01:56:24.260 Government didn't pay for it. We're doing fine.
01:56:25.760 You want the truth? I'm going to give you the
01:56:27.700 truth. What's so attractive?
01:56:29.740 Her ass. 1.00
01:56:31.740 Okay. 1.00
01:56:33.620 I mean, no, I'm being serious.
01:56:35.580 Look, guys.
01:56:37.360 Yes! Guys.
01:56:39.660 Okay, Shane Gillis.
01:56:40.720 We are built.
01:56:43.380 I know. I kind of agree
01:56:45.680 with Shane Gillis guys are built and it is a cross we bear and I'm not saying that women are
01:56:52.840 responsible for any of that I'm saying men still have a huge responsibility control yourself animal
01:56:58.800 okay that's what but guys are visual for a reason for a reason it's an animal thing to keep the
01:57:07.900 species running I don't know what's happening to guys but we got you know usually guys have
01:57:14.720 Guys only think about sex all the time.
01:57:17.080 Have you ever watched Everybody Loves Raymond?
01:57:19.220 That's the truest comedy ever on television.

01:59:23.440 That's an actual picture?
01:59:25.240 I don't want to know how you know.
01:59:26.760 I watched a music video two days ago.
01:59:28.120 I'm writing an article about his rap career right now.
01:59:30.580 That's why I watched it all.
01:59:32.720 And you could read about it on lindbeck.com.
01:59:35.200 If that's how you get around that with your husband,
01:59:37.620 honey, I'm writing an article on this.
01:59:39.960 This is my word.
01:59:41.700 I'm doing important work for America right now.
01:59:46.920 I know.
01:59:47.840 We all are.
01:59:49.800 Michaela, God bless you.
01:59:50.940 Thank you for letting me do this to you.
01:59:53.520 And, Ricky, you deserve every word of it.
01:59:55.340 All right, let me tell you about pre-born.
01:59:58.120 If you live in a world that is constantly trying to put a price on about everything, your house has a price.
02:00:05.500 Your car has a price.
02:00:06.380 Even your home, your time has a price.
02:00:08.780 According to somebody who's willing to pay you for it, you know, that's what your time is worth, okay?
02:00:15.540 There are those things that we value that cannot be measured in dollars, and that's most of the things that are important.
02:00:22.380 The value of a human life depends on who you ask.
02:00:24.920 It's a terrifying thought.
02:00:25.920 If a human life only has value and somebody decides it does, then nobody has a guarantee that our own life is going to be considered worth protecting.
02:00:32.680 Human life has inherent value because it was created by God, and no one can create life except him.
02:00:39.100 Unfortunately, a lot of people can take that life.
02:00:42.240 That's why I support Preborn.
02:00:43.700 They provide free ultrasounds and compassionate support to women facing unplanned pregnancies.
02:00:48.620 Will you join Preborn as they work to rescue 50,000 more babies?
02:00:52.640 That's what we've done this year, 50,000.
02:00:54.540 This show alone, for $28, it'll sponsor an ultrasound and help save a baby's life.
