Transcript

00:00:00.000 This winter, take a trip to Tampa on Porter Airlines.
00:00:05.460 Enjoy the warm Tampa Bay temperatures and warm Porter hospitality on your way there.
00:00:11.420 All Porter fares include beer, wine, and snacks, and free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi on planes with no middle seats.
00:00:18.840 And your Tampa Bay vacation includes good times, relaxation, and great Gulf Coast weather.
00:00:25.240 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.
00:00:30.000 Currently, there is a war being waged in America.
00:00:34.520 It's a war that you probably don't know much about.
00:00:37.540 It threatens our sovereignty, our economy, our individual rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
00:00:43.540 It is being waged by corporations and the elites all across the world.
00:00:48.000 And the effects of this war can already be seen in places like France, Ireland, and the Netherlands.
00:00:54.680 It is not the war of free speech.
00:00:57.020 It's not the war against religion.
00:00:58.840 Believe it or not, it is the war on beef.
00:01:03.060 Using climate change as a shield, this war seeks to control all food production.
00:01:10.300 Major players, including politicians and megacorporations, all at the expense of the small American farms and the small farms all around the world.
00:01:20.220 One rancher has been speaking out about this for quite some time.
00:01:23.540 And he's here to talk about what you can do to stop it.
00:01:27.500 He's a cattle rancher that believes in private property rights.
00:01:31.780 He is the committee chair of R-CALF USA.
00:01:37.060 His name?
00:01:38.120 Shad Sullivan.
00:01:38.900 Before we get to Shad, when you are faced with a situation where you might have to shoot somebody in self-defense, God forbid this ever happens, in defense of your family, you have to make a decision like this fast.
00:01:52.560 Are you willing to face the legal consequences?
00:01:54.840 Are you willing to shoot that person?
00:01:57.900 Does it call for it?
00:01:59.580 Do you have it right?
00:02:00.840 The legal consequences, the moral consequences are overwhelming.
00:02:05.000 I carry a gun, so I feel comfortable that I can make that decision.
00:02:10.060 But I wouldn't mind it sometimes having something that maybe is less than lethal to start with.
00:02:16.880 Then I, you know, the pepper spray, whatever.
00:02:19.140 I want to introduce you to the Burna Launcher.
00:02:22.540 It is the best non-lethal alternative that I've ever heard of.
00:02:26.540 It's legal in all 50 states.
00:02:28.600 No permits or background checks required.
00:02:30.880 It can be used by all ages over 18.
00:02:33.740 And it is.
00:02:34.420 It has powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds.
00:02:38.100 60-foot range.
00:02:39.960 One shot can take out an attacker out of the game for about 40 minutes.
00:02:44.040 I don't know.
00:02:44.600 I think you'd be safe.

00:02:52.000 Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.
00:03:09.360 Chad, thank you for coming in.
00:03:11.100 Thank you.
00:03:11.620 My pleasure.
00:03:12.240 I appreciate it.
00:03:12.980 Yeah.
00:03:13.340 You wrote an amazing letter that I think was so well thought out and talks about what people are facing.
00:03:24.160 I don't think the average person has any idea of the war on food that's happening right now.
00:03:29.600 None.
00:03:30.280 None whatsoever.
00:03:31.520 And I first saw it because, you know, I say I'm a rancher.
00:03:35.980 I'm not.
00:03:36.660 Right.
00:03:36.760 I own a ranch and the cattle, and then I watch other people make magic happen.
00:03:43.500 I get it.
00:03:44.260 But it is a hard life, but it's a good life.
00:03:49.760 It's a good life.
00:03:49.980 You understand how you just understand life when you're dependent on the land, on God.
00:03:59.600 And, you know, the environmentalists that say, you know, we have to preserve this land.
00:04:06.720 There's no better conservationist than a rancher or a farmer.
00:04:12.100 That's right.
00:04:12.520 They know the soil.
00:04:13.560 That's right.
00:04:14.040 Okay.
00:04:16.300 Talk about, let's start in California.
00:04:20.880 Okay.
00:04:21.100 Let's go back to, when was it, 2008, I think, yeah, 2006, Proposition 2.
00:04:28.020 That passed.
00:04:29.300 Tell me what that did.
00:04:31.000 The way I understand that proposition was is 63% of the voters voted in favor of requiring cage size requirements for chickens and hogs and such as that.
00:04:46.800 And so that did go ahead and pass, but we knew, you know, we know that that wasn't the end intention.
00:04:55.040 Yeah.
00:04:55.320 The end intention was no animals at all.
00:04:57.400 And so they came back.
00:04:59.000 This movement, this anti-animal ideology that is just sweeping across the earth right now.
00:05:06.180 Explain anti-animal ideology.
00:05:07.900 Well, in order to gain control of production and consumption, they have to have control of food production.
00:05:18.760 Right.
00:05:19.160 And the very ground level of food production is farmers and ranchers, right?
00:05:23.400 And what do farmers and ranchers have?
00:05:25.420 They have land because it takes land and natural resources to grow our food.
00:05:30.320 And it doesn't matter if you're talking about pigs, cattle, vegetable crops, whatever it is.
00:05:39.320 And so the anti-animal ideology is a freedom taker.
00:05:44.960 That's what it all amounts to is liberty and freedom.
00:05:48.360 And in order for them to have, and when I say them, I say, I mean the global elite to have control of all production and all consumption.
00:05:56.620 They have to have control of that production.
00:06:00.540 They have to have control of the land.
00:06:03.400 And so that is where the anti-animal ideology starts.
00:06:07.980 But it tends to run downhill into individual ideologies.
00:06:15.680 You know, there are ideologues out there who don't believe in eating meat.
00:06:19.220 They believe that cattle are harming the land.
00:06:22.260 They don't like that.
00:06:24.460 And so the global elite have used those ideologues as foot soldiers for their ultimate goal, which is total control.
00:06:33.980 Right, global warming being used.
00:06:35.780 Back then it was global warming.
00:06:37.340 When I was growing up, it was acid rain.
00:06:40.240 Okay, when I was growing up, it was global cooling.
00:06:42.420 Okay, global cooling and then acid rain.
00:06:45.340 Then we had global warming.
00:06:47.240 And they realized that the majority of the world's population wasn't going for it.
00:06:53.060 So they changed it to climate change.
00:06:55.660 And, you know, this movement has been in the works for generations.
00:07:01.280 But it's increasing because of our ability to learn, you know, the Internet.
00:07:08.220 You know, the Bible talks about all of this and the days that we live in.
00:07:13.500 So it's gaining like fire in certain ways.
00:07:19.100 And I see Americans starting to wake up and say, you know, there's something not right about this.
00:07:24.280 And so...
00:07:24.900 But the hour is growing late.
00:07:26.080 Yes.
00:07:26.520 Really late.
00:07:27.200 It's very late.
00:07:27.840 So, California just passed Proposition 12.
00:07:32.640 Right.
00:07:33.100 And if I'm not mistaken, didn't Massachusetts also pass something like this?
00:07:39.080 I don't know about Massachusetts, but they tried it in Oregon.
00:07:42.680 They tried it in Colorado with the PAWS Act that would make, you know, any kind of action.
00:07:51.900 If I needed to palpate a cow or pull a kef out, they made that a felony.
00:07:57.160 They tried to make that a felony.
00:07:58.620 It did not pass in Colorado.
00:08:00.440 And I can speak for Colorado because that's where I'm from originally.
00:08:04.580 Only because we are a one ballot initiative state.
00:08:09.320 So we can only have one question on the ballot.
00:08:11.940 And they had two.
00:08:13.180 And so it did not get out of committee.
00:08:15.160 But they're coming back.
00:08:16.400 And they're coming back with a vengeance through all states.
00:08:18.880 So you said in 2006 we knew that this wasn't going to end.
00:08:22.540 Sure.
00:08:22.880 Explain what California just did and why it affects all of us.
00:08:26.240 Well, with the passage of Prop 12, that would inhibit importers into California.
00:08:35.580 That would regulate the people who sell into California under the same rules, which would eliminate, you know, a lot of transactions that they need for their economy.
00:08:47.160 And what they said was the pens have to be even bigger.
00:08:50.220 Yeah.
00:08:51.300 And they want the hogs to be able to turn around.
00:08:56.500 And that apparently the ranchers are saying that's dangerous for the pigs.
00:09:01.080 That's right.
00:09:01.480 But everything has to be augmented.
00:09:06.140 It would cost thousands of dollars for anybody to take these rules on.
00:09:10.820 My first reaction was, good, then let California live in California and no rancher should be changing anything.
00:09:22.280 Let them feel the full ramification of this.
00:09:25.160 That's right.
00:09:26.620 But then what do the ranchers do?
00:09:28.440 That's exactly right.
00:09:29.660 Right.
00:09:29.860 And, you know, California is one of our largest agricultural production states in the union.
00:09:36.380 In many ways, they are.
00:09:37.940 And there are vast ranches out there that this affects all of them, you know, all production.
00:09:44.820 You know, the beef cattle industry is the last bastion of freedom.
00:09:48.900 And so their ultimate goal is to get to us.
00:09:53.220 And that's how they're doing it is on the lower levels through, you know, chicken, pork, and those other means of production.
00:10:02.360 When you say this is the last bastion of freedom, what do you mean by that?
00:10:07.740 Well, as of right now, every center of production in agriculture is vertically integrated.
00:10:16.440 We've lost the hogs.
00:10:19.380 China owns the hog production in the United States.
00:10:22.140 We've lost the chicken and poultry sectors to corporate control.
00:10:30.080 We are importing 74%.
00:10:34.040 74% of our lamb is imported into the United States.
00:10:38.580 We used to have 56 million head of lamb three generations ago in the United States.
00:10:46.440 Now we have 5 million head.
00:10:48.840 Wow.
00:10:49.240 Yeah.
00:10:49.560 Now, wait a minute.
00:10:50.700 And that is because of regulation, just because you can't make a living at it?
00:10:55.500 What is it?
00:10:56.300 Well, there's a plethora of reasons that come into it.
00:11:00.140 You know, droughts may have an effect.
00:11:02.760 But the overall mechanism here that we've seen come into play is corporate control.
00:11:09.760 They, and that's what we're really seeing as a symptom of what's going on in California.
00:11:16.220 This corporate control has emboldened, their power has become emboldened.
00:11:24.320 And so the symptom of it is, hey, you're going to produce as we see fit, or you're going to get out of the game.
00:11:30.280 And see, it's a very convoluted and complex issue, because on one side you have these ideologues, and then you have, on the other side, you have this takeover of corporate control in the United States.
00:11:43.280 And when they come together, it's just like a snowball headed for hell.
00:11:46.440 And it gets very complex.
00:11:48.400 These issues that we're talking about are so complex, and I don't understand them all.
00:11:53.200 I understand my perspective of it.
00:11:56.600 I think the Lord has given me a good sense of where it came from and where it's going.
00:12:02.120 It's not something that I set out to learn, but my family was affected by a land taking in 1999, and it opened my eyes to a corrupt system.
00:12:14.500 And I was just a young man then.
00:12:15.980 And that's how I came to be an advocate for freedom and liberty, because what they did to my family was absolutely everything opposite.
00:12:28.020 So I didn't understand, until I started selling cattle, I didn't understand what a mafia system it really is.
00:12:41.500 I mean, the farmer, the rancher, is held at gunpoint by, is it three or four companies?
00:12:49.540 Four companies.
00:12:50.440 And they process almost all of the meat.
00:12:55.440 And so if you're not selling to them, where are you going to process?
00:12:59.840 Well, that's the question, right?
00:13:02.000 That's the question.
00:13:02.780 And so I have been in, I mean, the only way to become wealthy in ranching or farming today is to start wealthy.
00:13:14.640 You know, and then that, you know, in time, that'll go away.
00:13:17.420 That's right.
00:13:17.840 But there's, we're to the point, I think it was this year or last year, where it costs more to feed the animal than they were willing to sell or buy at.
00:13:29.720 Absolutely.
00:13:30.120 And, you know, there has to be some common sense.
00:13:34.200 And the prices keep going down in one year.
00:13:37.380 It'll be, oh, well, it was a drought.
00:13:39.160 Oh, well, this was happening.
00:13:40.640 Oh, well, this was happening.
00:13:42.480 It never seems to go up and have really good years several in a row.
00:13:47.400 It's all down.
00:13:48.280 And it's, you can't convince me there's no collusion there.
00:13:52.840 No, there's total collusion.
00:13:54.140 And I'll tell you this, the global elite, in fact, an individual from the World Wildlife Fund said, we have to use collusion in order to implement this agenda.
00:14:07.840 And so they are using the corporate packers, you know.
00:14:12.000 And the corporate packers are volunteering for it, obviously.
00:14:15.820 There's four main packers control 85% of the supply chain in the beef industry today.
00:14:23.460 Two of them are foreign-owned, National Marfrig and JBS.
00:14:27.560 Why would we do this?
00:14:29.040 Why do we do this?
00:14:29.940 Well, it all comes down to that complexity that I talk about that is to weaken a nation.
00:14:39.860 And you're seeing it all over.
00:14:43.060 So there is a movement to get regional and local packers.
00:14:49.860 But it's my understanding that is really expensive and hard to build.
00:14:55.740 And you don't build them overnight.
00:14:57.280 But that's a bunch of ranchers getting together and saying, we've got to cut this beef ourselves.
00:15:05.340 We've got to package this beef ourselves because we can't.
00:15:08.840 We're getting robbed and being driven out of business by these giant companies.
00:15:13.440 Yes, sir.
00:15:13.980 If there was anything that COVID did positive for us, it opened Americans' eyes to the instability of concentration.
00:15:21.700 Yes.
00:15:21.860 And, you know, since then, the farm-to-table movement has been enormous.
00:15:28.180 It's been a blessing.
00:15:29.020 It's been a blessing for my family.
00:15:30.580 It's been a blessing for millions of other families.
00:15:33.420 Not only producers, but consumers.
00:15:35.440 Because they say, hey, we don't trust this system.
00:15:37.880 How do we come together with the consumer?
00:15:40.420 And that has taken place.
00:15:41.560 And there is, the USDA has come out with programs since COVID that allows for regional and local expansion of our meatpacking supply.
00:15:51.840 And I do think that we have been more competitive against the big four packers than ever before.
00:15:59.020 Now, we should break those packers up.
00:16:01.640 We have law antitrust laws.
00:16:03.060 Oh, my gosh.
00:16:03.620 Yes.
00:16:03.760 The Clayton Antitrust Act, the Sherman Antitrust, the packers in stockyards.
00:16:07.640 The fact that those packers, I think two of them, are the leading people on fake meat should tell you everything you need to know.
00:16:17.160 Just last week, Tyson, you know, announced a partnership with fake meat, you know.
00:16:23.140 And they are huge investors.
00:16:25.300 The problem with, you know, as I say, it was a gift.
00:16:31.220 It was something that COVID gave us was that expansion of those local and regional packing facilities and the ability for us to take our product and sell it locally.
00:16:42.580 But now they're coming in and saying, oh, we got the EPA.
00:16:46.660 We got to go by their environmental regulations.
00:16:48.680 So now there's local and regional packing companies that are going to have to spend millions and millions on wastewater treatment plants in their own organization.
00:16:57.880 And so what does that do?
00:16:59.040 That puts us back out on the street and more dependent.
00:17:01.720 So we have to get on top of all of these things.
00:17:04.280 There's a lot of legislation that's coming and coming forward.
00:17:08.880 You know, it's a it's a farm bill year, you know, hopefully.
00:17:13.600 And there are good things happening.
00:17:16.500 But it's because of a small group of people saying we cannot.
00:17:21.660 Our our country cannot sustain.
00:17:25.060 And I hate that word, but it's a word.
00:17:27.260 It's been stolen from us.
00:17:28.920 But we can't not sustain what's going on.
00:17:31.520 We have to be able to feed our own country and others to have some food security, which is national security.
00:17:38.200 It is.
00:17:39.400 I mean, people don't understand how, you know, we think of ourselves as the breadbasket of the world or not.
00:17:47.880 We're not.
00:17:49.720 And that's by choice.
00:17:51.500 We could be.
00:17:52.260 We could be absolutely by choice.
00:17:55.720 And I don't think people understand.
00:17:58.620 You know, I said this a few years back when I first came on with, you know, ESG and and the World Economic Forum and what they were talking about in Agenda 21 at first.
00:18:11.580 Now it's Agenda 2030.
00:18:12.700 Millions of people will starve to death all over the world.
00:18:17.440 I mean, it will be the worst famine in human history if these people get their way.
00:18:26.580 Overnight.
00:18:27.680 Yes.
00:18:28.440 Overnight.
00:18:28.880 Because what people don't realize is there are so many facets to getting this food across the country.
00:18:36.560 You know, here we have an attack on our energy supply.
00:18:40.420 What does energy do for Americans?
00:18:42.860 Everything.
00:18:43.760 You look around this room right here.
00:18:46.100 We cannot live without oil.
00:18:48.060 Every single thing.
00:18:49.800 We cannot live without those truckers.
00:18:52.260 Those truckers are a huge part of our operations.
00:18:55.380 They shut down for one day.
00:18:57.640 I'm telling you, store shelves go empty overnight.
00:19:01.280 We have no idea.
00:19:02.360 They are restocked.
00:19:03.940 I think it's what is it?
00:19:04.840 The average is three to five times a day.
00:19:08.200 They're restocked.
00:19:09.500 I mean, people don't understand how fast this can go away.
00:19:14.080 During COVID, I went up to my local bigger grocery store and they have a beautiful meat aisle.
00:19:21.900 And it was empty.
00:19:23.980 And I said, well, how do you, what do you guys do here?
00:19:28.340 And they said, well, we stock it at 630 in the morning and everybody's figured out that the shelves are going to be empty by 730.
00:19:35.340 It's empty.
00:19:36.260 They did it once a day.
00:19:37.860 Unbelievable.
00:19:38.120 It was unreal in America that we would have during that COVID issue that we would have people in bread lines.
00:19:45.480 Yeah.
00:19:46.260 You know, in America that we would be destroying our harvests in America, the land of plenty.
00:19:55.920 You know, and that's, that's something that kind of got me going.
00:20:00.280 And I was like, this, this isn't the way it's supposed to be in our country.
00:20:04.060 And this is all coming from elites.
00:20:06.840 85% of elites and super elites, super elites are ones that went to Ivy League colleges and have a doctorate.
00:20:15.920 The, just the elite are making $150,000 a year.
00:20:23.240 They've gone to college, have one postgraduate degree and they're involved in the companies or countries.
00:20:33.740 You, they just did a poll on those people.
00:20:38.540 80 plus percent say that Americans should not be allowed to eat beef or meat of any kind.
00:20:47.820 85%.
00:20:49.500 I think people would be shocked to know that our world, and I don't think they actually mean it.
00:20:56.060 Otherwise, why is Zuckerberg building a ranch where he's feeding his cows macadamia nuts?
00:21:01.480 Well, we have to remember what Klaus Schwab said in 2023 at Davos, and he said, you will enjoy meat as a treat.
00:21:07.860 Yes.
00:21:08.280 But not for sustenance.
00:21:09.760 And we know beef is really the only animal that can provide total and 100% sustenance to human life.
00:21:17.060 These elite that you talk about, you know, I, I hearken back to my dad.
00:21:21.700 He's, he's gone now and, but he was a self-made rancher, started with nothing.
00:21:26.780 And, and, and I can say this because this is our business, but we did it with cattle and it was hard and we're not done doing it.
00:21:34.480 But he always, on his deathbed, we have an old bunkhouse sitting out there and, uh, that was the original homestead house.
00:21:42.380 And in the last days of his life, I'd take him, wheel him over there.
00:21:46.800 And, and he said, I said, dad, what are we going to do?
00:21:49.660 And he says, son, we'll never change America until they sit in the dark, cold and hungry.
00:21:55.160 And that's the truth.
00:21:56.260 And he, he came from a place of suffering.
00:21:58.660 So he understood that.
00:21:59.680 But I think about these elites that you talk about and they, I, I think about them at the same time.
00:22:05.300 I think about all those people in those temperatures, pulling calves and breaking ice up to the Northern tier last week.
00:22:11.100 I think about somebody on the side of a road with a flat tire, those elites couldn't even change a flat tire.
00:22:16.920 They couldn't do this most simple things that require real life.
00:22:20.580 And here they are, uh, demanding and dictating how we're going to produce and consume not only in America, but across the world.
00:22:29.040 But what you're seeing in Germany, in Ireland, in the Netherlands, that's coming here.
00:22:35.100 We're on the cusp of it.
00:22:36.680 People don't understand.
00:22:38.000 Netherlands, that is the bread basket of Europe.
00:22:41.680 The biggest exporter of, of, uh, agriculture products.
00:22:45.400 So you shut the Netherlands down and Europe begins to starve, but they're doing it in country after country.
00:22:53.320 And they are ahead of us.
00:22:54.640 And most people in America see these, you know, farmers and these radical farmers, as they're called.
00:23:00.900 They're not radical.
00:23:02.120 What are they asking for?
00:23:03.160 Oh, I, you know, under the UN rules, they, they regionally and incrementally push that ideology.
00:23:15.760 And that's what you're seeing happen in the European Union.
00:23:18.660 And they use it in the African Union.
00:23:20.640 The only reason they haven't started it here when they have started it, but they haven't won.
00:23:25.780 And we're not going to let them win is because the American cattle rancher owns his land.
00:23:30.460 We have a constitution that guarantees property rights.
00:23:35.440 And that is the foundation of everything.
00:23:37.240 That's the only thing that's going to protect us.
00:23:39.060 That's what's happening in the Netherlands.
00:23:40.480 That's exactly what they're taking that farmland away.
00:23:42.440 They're taking that farmland away.
00:23:43.660 And we have to, we have to get on board and understand that the found our founding fathers and their creation of this living document, we call the Constitution of the United States is the only way we save this country.
00:23:57.060 And we save it through private property and private property.
00:24:00.120 It doesn't have to be land.
00:24:01.680 It might be your coat.
00:24:03.120 It might be a gun.
00:24:04.360 It may be, it was whatever allows you to put food on your table.
00:24:08.900 That is the foundation of what we're talking about.
00:24:11.220 All of these issues that we talk about, and it doesn't matter if it's in the ag industry, the beef industry, oil, energy, all of it.
00:24:18.800 Everything we talk about goes back to liberty and freedom.
00:24:21.600 Are we able to produce it the way we see fit?
00:24:24.060 I want to talk to you about Relief Factor.

00:25:21.840 ReliefFactor.com.
00:25:23.220 Talk to me about NACs, National Asset Corporations.
00:25:30.420 Thankfully, it has been withdrawn.
00:25:35.240 The application has been withdrawn by the New York Stock Exchange, but I don't think that's the end of it.
00:25:41.520 Because this is the loss of land and rights.
00:25:46.920 Yes.
00:25:47.100 So talk about what that is.
00:25:49.100 Well, the natural asset companies, the New York Stock Exchange petitioned the Securities and Exchange Commission to create what they call natural asset companies.
00:26:01.780 And they are so convoluted and so complex, it's hard to understand.
00:26:06.960 But the basic is, is they would take control of our natural outputs.
00:26:12.640 In other words, they would monetize and quantify our air, our water, anything productively tied to the land.
00:26:20.360 And so at the end of it, in the beginning of it, it would affect really state and federally owned lands.
00:26:27.860 Those lands that have been given over to conservation easements.
00:26:33.860 Private lands, you could enroll your private land into it.
00:26:38.180 But the gist of it is, is they end, the end result is they take control of the management of those natural outputs.
00:26:45.720 And then they can dictate how you produce on that land.
00:26:49.580 Right.
00:26:49.680 You could be a cattle rancher, you know, and cattle farts, apparently the bane of everybody's existence.
00:26:54.960 Right.
00:26:56.220 And they can come by the air rights, the assets.
00:27:01.200 That's right.
00:27:01.640 And say, you are polluting too much.
00:27:04.460 We need clean air here and basically shut you down.
00:27:07.400 That's right.
00:27:08.300 Because they, they have under, in, under this rule, the rules of management would have to be follow sustainability.
00:27:17.020 Right.
00:27:17.560 And so what is sustainability?
00:27:18.720 It's what I've been talking about all day here.
00:27:21.280 It's consumption and production control.
00:27:23.160 That's all it is.
00:27:24.660 You know, when, when this is a global move to take possession of our lands, these are land grabs.
00:27:31.640 And it didn't start here.
00:27:33.280 I mean, we have national heritage areas.
00:27:35.420 My, you know, I was part of an organization that defeated one in Southeast Colorado in 2014.
00:27:41.040 And the only reason we knew about it, Glenn, was it was leaked from the National Park Service to an individual.
00:27:46.340 They weren't going to tell us about that.
00:27:47.960 You have conservation easements that people are going into, farmers and ranchers are going into under the guise of protecting their future rights on these lands.
00:27:58.060 That's not what it's doing.
00:27:59.280 It's giving their future rights away.
00:28:01.620 They're the last, they're the last owners that have productive principles, not the future.
00:28:06.860 I know, I'm afraid.
00:28:08.400 I live in the middle of a national forest.
00:28:11.560 I have 1,100 acres in the middle of a national forest.
00:28:16.700 So I have a state road that goes through it so I can get to it.
00:28:21.220 But I am terrified that that land is not going to be mine.
00:28:27.000 Absolutely.
00:28:27.900 And I'll tell you what, under some conservation easement contracts, my neighbor can put a conservation easement on his ranch and under that contract, it can say no oil wells pumping in the view shed.
00:28:41.600 Well, what does that do to you?
00:28:42.880 It ends up kicking you out because nobody's going to come drill for oil on your land.
00:28:47.900 You know, they make all of these very corrupt principles and they hide them in these contracts.
00:28:54.440 And I, you know, in my country where I grew up, southeast Colorado, all ranch country, thousands of farmers and ranchers put their land in easements.
00:29:04.180 And my dad was like, don't, don't do it.
00:29:07.720 You're, you're dictating from the grave.
00:29:09.940 Yes.
00:29:10.620 You know, it is so wrong.
00:29:13.520 When you, when you say we are putting this land in conservation from here on out, you're going to be long dead.
00:29:23.260 You'll have no right to do anything.
00:29:26.420 You shouldn't destroy it and you can't lock it up.
00:29:31.480 You can do neither of those.
00:29:33.380 It's in the name of the dollar though.
00:29:35.540 That's the problem.
00:29:37.060 I can conserve my land and I can do that as, as, as we pass it down from generation to generation.
00:29:45.160 I don't need somebody paying me to do that.
00:29:47.580 Correct.
00:29:47.960 I can do that.
00:29:48.980 So when we have all of these cattle men and women, I know going across Florida, everybody's talking about how many people are moving in and we got to put these lands in conservation easements.
00:29:59.300 Dadgum, do it yourself.
00:30:00.560 Don't, don't take the dollar to dictate from the grave that nobody can do anything with this land down the road.
00:30:08.460 You, you can do that yourself.
00:30:10.240 You don't need the money.
00:30:11.380 You're there.
00:30:12.220 And so here we are talking about conservation easements.
00:30:17.000 You know, we have the American Prairie Reserve in, in Montana, totally controlled by the World Wildlife Fund.
00:30:25.640 The World Wildlife Fund is, is interested in management of the natural asset companies.
00:30:30.780 You see how this is all interwoven and inter, intertwined at these non-governmental environmental or extreme environmental organizations are, are so heavily funded that we can't compete.
00:30:45.500 And now you have what they call public-private partnerships.
00:30:49.520 They're the most dangerous thing on earth.
00:30:51.680 It's fascism.
00:30:52.460 It's fascism.
00:30:53.360 It's any ism that you want to put.
00:30:56.800 It is total fascism.
00:30:58.740 And that's, you know, I know people think I'm a little bit crazy.
00:31:01.740 No.
00:31:02.080 And I'm fine with that.
00:31:03.140 Yeah, me too.
00:31:03.620 If I can save my country and let my son taste the taste of liberty, taste the taste of freedom, I'm okay.
00:31:11.760 Because what's happening, it's two plus two.
00:31:13.980 You don't have to be a smart man.
00:31:15.260 I'm not a smart man.
00:31:16.680 I saw what was happening back in 1999, and then we come in in about 2010, and they start talking about the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef.
00:31:25.980 And when I hear global, and I knew that they were stealing the word sustainable, I knew we were in trouble.
00:31:31.860 And I'm telling you, our trade organizations have signed on to these sustainability models, and they did it without knowing what true sustainability meant.
00:31:42.960 There's only one sustainer, and it's not the global elite.
00:31:47.620 We are in trouble, and I'm telling you, they're pushing since the delineation of the natural asset companies.
00:31:56.880 They're coming out stronger than ever.
00:31:58.340 They're pushing for global control through sustainable development, and it's not good.
00:32:05.920 What should the average person do?
00:32:08.740 We can do a lot of things.
00:32:10.480 Number one, we can dedicate ourselves to the U.S. Constitution, that living document.
00:32:16.200 We have to learn it.
00:32:16.900 Number one thing.
00:32:18.140 We have to do it, Glenn.
00:32:19.620 We have to do it.
00:32:20.460 We can support legislation by our state and national leaders that are actually on our side.
00:32:27.000 Most of them are not on our side, even the Republicans.
00:32:29.900 I say Republicans, Democrats, wings on the same bird.
00:32:33.360 But there are a few Republicans out there that treasure liberty.
00:32:36.840 So we have to support them, and we have to help them.
00:32:39.740 We have to run for our local governments.
00:32:41.980 Because they've infiltrated, cleared out.
00:32:45.160 These extremists, these ideologues, they're patient.
00:32:48.320 They're so patient.
00:32:49.560 And they've infiltrated, cleared to the lowest levels.
00:32:52.300 They're in our churches now.
00:32:53.540 You're seeing it.
00:32:53.860 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:32:54.620 You're seeing it.
00:32:56.740 They're absolutely everywhere, and you're right.
00:33:00.340 They're patient.
00:33:02.080 I mean...
00:33:03.180 It's all about incrementalism.
00:33:04.720 Yeah.
00:33:05.100 And all of a sudden, if you're not paying attention, you find yourself going, wait a minute.
00:33:09.560 When did that change?
00:33:10.740 Yeah.
00:33:11.280 What happened here?
00:33:12.780 Exactly.
00:33:13.740 And they're now so bold, talking in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon, about taking five dams down.
00:33:23.700 What happens to the farmer and the rancher in high desert with no water?
00:33:30.100 Yep.
00:33:31.520 It's an unbelievable movement.
00:33:33.620 But we can support local.
00:33:37.240 We can buy local, American-made products.
00:33:40.600 And that's why it's so important for us to re-implement mandatory country-of-origin labeling.
00:33:46.420 Everything we buy in the United States has a country-of-origin label on it, except beef and pork.
00:33:54.440 We have to do that.
00:33:55.660 A little flag means nothing.
00:33:56.780 Product of USA, that means nothing.
00:33:58.440 It means nothing.
00:33:59.040 That means cut in the U.S.
00:34:00.520 They can repackage it.
00:34:01.600 They can cut it, put it in another box, and it becomes a product of the USA.
00:34:06.820 It is so deceptive because, you know, I have a lot of friends across this country, and most of them are cattle ranchers.
00:34:13.180 And we're not on the same side as these issues.
00:34:15.200 I'm not a loyalist.
00:34:18.380 I want to do what's right for the future.
00:34:21.420 What do you mean?
00:34:22.920 Well, a lot of people are loyal to their trade organizations.
00:34:30.600 And you can see that here in Texas, big.
00:34:32.640 You know, there's one of the largest trade organizations here is a great organization that provides a lot of good things, but they've signed on to the sustainability model.
00:34:44.200 But their members don't understand that model, but they're loyal, and I call them organization loyalists.
00:34:53.260 And I'm not that.
00:34:54.240 I don't want to be that.
00:34:55.380 I want to be an independent producer.
00:34:56.740 We all should be independent.
00:35:00.500 I mean, you know, I was a Republican and not a Republican.
00:35:05.240 I'll vote for Republicans.
00:35:07.120 But I'm not loyal to the institution.
00:35:09.860 That's the problem.
00:35:11.120 We need to be loyal to the Constitution and to God.
00:35:16.120 Those two things, that's where your loyalty goes.
00:35:18.420 God and the Constitution, because freedom comes from God.
00:35:20.920 Our true freedom comes from God.
00:35:23.000 And, you know, I don't...
00:35:26.740 I'm not against those people.
00:35:28.100 I'm just saying, wake up.
00:35:29.540 Because those things that you are voting for, that you don't understand, are going to put you out of business.
00:35:37.280 See, tyrants have no loyalty, Glenn.
00:35:39.900 At the end, one tyrant's going to kill the other.
00:35:42.540 They don't care.
00:35:44.680 And so this loyalty, movement of loyalty amongst these people to depend on trade organizations
00:35:52.460 to keep them in business is going to come back to bite everybody.
00:35:56.740 Because they are being...
00:35:59.000 It's a pay-to-play system, Glenn.
00:36:01.020 It's a pay-to-play system.
00:36:03.380 And the global corporations are paying these trade organizations right now.
00:36:09.200 USDA, United States Department of Agriculture, the...
00:36:13.800 I'm trying to think of what program that is.
00:36:18.980 I can't think of it right now, but...
00:36:21.260 That's right.
00:36:22.160 Anyway, they partnered up with all of these trade organizations and media outlets.
00:36:30.580 Farm Journal.
00:36:31.480 USDA pays Farm Journal $40 million to promote the Carbon Solutions Program.
00:36:38.180 Oh, my gosh.
00:36:39.000 They paid ADM, Archer Daniel Midland, the largest ag company in the world, $90 million.
00:36:47.560 South Dakota State University, $50 million.
00:36:51.220 What are they going to do?
00:36:52.960 They're pushing that ideology.
00:36:55.140 They're pushing that sustainable development control mechanism that teaches our kids in the university system.
00:37:01.860 It's done a disservice to us.
00:37:03.520 I will tell you that when I was reading the World Economic Forum's farming and food distribution plan,
00:37:11.860 it's one of the most arrogant things I've ever seen.
00:37:15.340 That by 2030, we will completely redesign from seed to fork the entire food production industry.
00:37:26.340 And I thought, that took us hundreds of thousands of years to perfect and to get it this close.
00:37:35.840 It's not perfect, but to get it this close.
00:37:38.040 And you're just going to arrogantly a bunch of eggheads say, you know what?
00:37:42.560 We're going to do it completely different.
00:37:44.620 That's nuts.
00:37:45.660 Who else did that?
00:37:48.160 Mao, Hitler, Cuba.
00:37:52.440 They all did it.
00:37:54.380 You got caught with seeds, they killed you.
00:37:57.560 You get caught growing a garden in Cuba, they killed you on the spot.
00:38:03.060 We are on the cusp of something very dangerous if Americans don't wake up.
00:38:07.960 And I don't say that to scare people because the truth is, you know, it's a day by day.
00:38:14.060 I say it because independent production, independent consumption, independent thought is so important, especially right now.
00:38:26.340 Tell me about the mRNA vaccine Bill Gates wants to give all the cattle.
00:38:32.380 Well, I don't have a lot of knowledge on that.
00:38:34.440 I know there was one state that had a bill presented that would try to stop that.
00:38:44.740 We do not do that in the beef industry, cattle industry now.
00:38:48.080 I'm not saying the technology is not there.
00:38:50.100 I don't know.
00:38:51.240 That's not my area of expertise.
00:38:53.240 But we don't do that.
00:38:54.600 Now, somebody asked me here a while back about vaccines in cattle.
00:38:58.580 I will tell you from my knowledge and my experience, and I'm what they call, I'm the middle man, I'm a stalker guy.
00:39:05.820 So there's several segments.
00:39:07.440 There's a cow-calf segment, stalker segment, feedlot segment.
00:39:10.440 I'm the guy in the middle.
00:39:12.640 And there are vaccines that we have to give our cattle.
00:39:16.280 You know, one of those is blackleg.
00:39:17.920 That's a spore in the ground that can kill cattle quickly.
00:39:21.620 We have to do that.
00:39:23.400 Some of these other vaccines, I don't do.
00:39:26.260 I don't participate in any of it.
00:39:27.840 I don't know where the mRNA stuff is going.
00:39:31.200 I think the technology is there.
00:39:34.080 We know the technology is there.
00:39:37.200 But it is dangerous.
00:39:39.000 It's very dangerous.
00:39:40.440 And, you know, is it a part of the ESG, the radio, you know, RFID?
00:39:49.320 They're trying to implement that without the will of the people right now in the beef industry.
00:39:52.700 RFID, ESG, where all these cattle have to have an RFID tag to travel interstate.
00:40:00.940 You have to register your premises.
00:40:02.740 Who else did that?
00:40:04.060 You know?
00:40:04.240 And so, there's so many complex issues that are interwoven into this diabolical web of sustainability.
00:40:13.600 And it's dangerous.
00:40:17.160 It's very dangerous.
00:40:18.180 And you know what?
00:40:18.780 It's a freedom killer.
00:40:21.100 They're all freedom killers.
00:40:22.740 And I like to tout that I'm a freedom maker, not a freedom taker.
00:40:26.900 I've never served my country in the military.
00:40:28.880 So, I guess this is kind of my way of serving my country is to make sure that, you know, we can produce independently under the guise of our own thought, you know, not under independent production or not under the sustainable development.
00:40:47.620 You know, people don't know under the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef you have to produce as they see fit or you get out of the market.
00:40:55.920 That happened in Brazil under the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Soy.
00:41:00.720 What does that mean?
00:41:02.600 What did they do in Brazil?
00:41:05.980 So, they sell all of their soy to the European Union.
00:41:10.080 And in order to be able to sell, you had to be a member or a part of the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Soy, which means that you produce that soy as they tell you to produce.
00:41:20.480 They're pushing the same thing in the United States under the Global and U.S. Roundtables for Sustainable Beef.
00:41:27.420 You get on board or you get out of the market.
00:41:29.580 Now, here in the United States, they say, oh, Chad, you're wrong.
00:41:33.240 That's a voluntary program.
00:41:35.800 Well, I'll tell you, it's voluntary until it's not.
00:41:38.380 And those programs have already been employed in the Netherlands, in Germany, across the European Union.
00:41:48.500 And you're seeing what's happening.
00:41:50.080 These farmers are revolting.
00:41:52.260 Their freedom has been taken.
00:41:53.640 What little freedom they had.
00:41:55.740 They weren't like the United States.
00:41:57.440 So, we have to get on top of this and we have to wake our friends up.
00:42:03.280 And it's all interwoven into the property rights discussion.
00:42:08.400 It's all interwoven into the free market capitalistic system, into the Constitution, into liberty.
00:42:16.840 We have to wake up, you know.
00:42:19.180 What is the first, what are we going to see?
00:42:22.560 Because they're ahead of us in Europe.
00:42:24.540 What are we going to start seeing?
00:42:26.160 Or has it been held together enough to not make that big of an impact yet?
00:42:32.320 I think that we're immediately going to start seeing those production regulatory mechanisms come about.
00:42:40.980 And they're starting through the RFID, ESG, in the beef cattle.
00:42:47.960 You know, we, there are a lot of cattle traded interstate in the United States.
00:42:54.580 Millions upon millions of head.
00:42:56.980 And once you start putting that data information out there, I think we're in trouble.
00:43:05.000 Why?
00:43:08.080 Why tagging them?
00:43:09.660 My dog has a...
00:43:10.780 Well, they're saying it's for disease traceability.
00:43:13.540 But we have an adequate system that traces disease.
00:43:19.360 If they were worried about disease traceability, why did we move our disease laboratory from Plum Island to Manhattan, Kansas, in the middle of cattle country?
00:43:28.700 We did that.
00:43:29.320 And foot and mouth has escaped that laboratory off of Plum Island off the coast of New York before dissipated out in the ocean.
00:43:39.860 But we've moved that laboratory that contains all these deadly diseases into Manhattan, Kansas, right in the middle of beef cattle country?
00:43:48.480 Are you kidding me?
00:43:50.440 It's not...
00:43:51.280 All of this is not...
00:43:54.000 If, but when.
00:43:57.780 They have to take control somehow.
00:44:00.100 And that's what this is.
00:44:01.680 Data mining.
00:44:02.540 All of it.
00:44:03.300 Glenn, it's all so convoluted and confusing.
00:44:06.000 I hate to think about it.
00:44:07.380 I know.
00:44:07.820 I know.
00:44:08.100 You know?
00:44:08.580 I know.
00:44:08.980 I've been doing this for a long time.
00:44:10.700 I know you have.
00:44:11.200 I know.
00:44:11.640 You know, you see with your brain and not with your eye.
00:44:16.440 Our brain constantly senses what's happening around.
00:44:20.460 And how and what we see not only depends on the strength of our own eyes, but the brain fills in certain things and it helps us make optimal decisions.
00:44:32.620 This is why you need as much vision field and peripheral vision as possible.
00:44:36.960 Vision is so important to humans that almost half of our brain's capacity, 25% of all of the energy that we expend every day, is powering our eyes.
00:44:48.740 It's an amazing thing.
00:44:51.140 Rodenstock, really well known all around the world.
00:44:54.220 They have come up with what they call biometric intelligence, intelligent glasses.
00:44:59.460 Your brain will adapt to them nearly instantly.
00:45:02.840 If you've ever put on new glasses and you're like, oh, I got to get used to these.
00:45:05.860 It's instant with this.
00:45:07.840 They feel so natural, relaxing.
00:45:10.680 The way they make the lens, it's like a hot knife through butter.
00:45:14.520 And you'll have a seamless visual experience and visual acuity like you haven't experienced before since wearing glasses.
00:45:21.040 Biometric intelligent glasses with artificial intelligence from Rodenstock.

00:45:41.160 Let's talk about labeling here for a second.
00:45:46.460 Grass-fed.
00:45:47.520 I raise grass-fed beef.
00:45:49.320 Me too.
00:45:49.820 But then I sell them and I know they go to a feedlot.
00:45:54.120 Okay.
00:45:54.660 And now they're eating grain and whatever.
00:45:56.460 And it can still say grass-fed beef, even though at the end they got big and fat and everything off of corn.
00:46:05.920 Yeah.
00:46:06.420 So the label means nothing.
00:46:07.840 It's grass-finished beef.
00:46:09.460 Finished.
00:46:10.200 Right?
00:46:10.720 That you have to look for.
00:46:11.820 You know, I'm not an expert in that area.
00:46:14.080 I know what I do is I actually finish mine on grass.
00:46:19.900 Southeast Colorado is, you're able to do that because our grass is so powerful.
00:46:24.960 But as far as the labeling of grass-fed, you know, there are supposed mechanisms in there through the organic movement that would guarantee that.
00:46:38.320 But, you know, I question that because isn't corn a grass?
00:46:44.560 Yeah, it is.
00:46:45.760 So can you, you know, I don't know.
00:46:48.200 I don't know.
00:46:48.920 So what I'm getting to is like the made in USA, that label, product of USA, that label means nothing.
00:46:56.320 Nothing.
00:46:57.560 Does organic mean anything?
00:46:58.920 What does organic mean?
00:47:00.060 Well, I mean, if you ask me, the corn is growing out of the ground.
00:47:03.200 We finish them on corn.
00:47:04.200 That's organic to me.
00:47:05.460 Right.
00:47:05.920 You know.
00:47:06.500 Right.
00:47:06.760 So I don't know.
00:47:08.600 I'm not an expert in that.
00:47:09.960 So there's a new one, low-carbon meat.
00:47:15.220 What is that?
00:47:17.380 That is what I'm talking about through this carbon credit system that the USDA is coming out with.
00:47:24.240 And I have ranchers that are neighbors that are participating in a program, a low-carbon credit program, through the USDA, getting paid to monitor their carbon emissions.
00:47:40.560 And now, how do you do that?
00:47:41.540 I don't know.
00:47:42.580 To me, it's a lot like going down to 7-Eleven and airing up your tire for 25 cents, paying 25 cents for air in your tire.
00:47:50.480 I mean, it's very confusing to me.
00:47:53.080 We have to have cattle to create this.
00:47:58.120 This carbon is good, right?
00:47:59.760 Yeah, carbon is what makes everything grow.
00:48:01.540 You know, we have to have this.
00:48:03.560 They say it like it's a bad thing.
00:48:06.440 And under proper regenerative practices, we know that we're better than carbon neutral.
00:48:15.260 Right.
00:48:16.060 We're carbon beings.
00:48:18.100 Yes.
00:48:18.820 We're carbon beings.
00:48:20.440 I wish I was a scientist, but I'm not, Glenn.
00:48:23.980 I don't wish I was a scientist if I had to play the game that they're playing now.
00:48:28.660 I know my grandfather, he was a farmer.
00:48:32.900 And I remember him saying, all these elite scientists and everybody with all of their college degrees come in.
00:48:44.780 They don't have any idea what it's like to stick their hand in the dirt.
00:48:50.180 No, none.
00:48:51.660 Everything they're preaching is wrong.
00:48:53.620 They have no stake in the game.
00:48:55.640 Yeah.
00:48:55.840 They have no stake in the game.
00:48:58.380 And if they were put under pressure, they wouldn't win.
00:49:03.600 They wouldn't.
00:49:04.180 They could not, you know, put some of these guys out on the land and say, hey, in six months, bring us a crop.
00:49:11.420 They couldn't do it.
00:49:12.240 Oh, no.
00:49:12.900 They couldn't begin to do it.
00:49:14.560 I think I hearken back to my great-great-grandmother who was here in Texas.
00:49:20.020 And her husband died the same week as her eight-year-old daughter.
00:49:24.500 And on his deathbed, he said, take those boys and go to Colorado.
00:49:27.740 And you know what she did, Glenn?
00:49:28.880 She took seven boys and a girl and she went to Colorado and she dug her own house.
00:49:34.400 She dug it out of the ground.
00:49:36.460 A dugout.
00:49:37.560 Covered it with sod.
00:49:38.880 She dug their own well.
00:49:40.580 You think these people could do this now?
00:49:42.620 No.
00:49:43.740 Everything is so easy for us.
00:49:45.920 We've had the best life.
00:49:47.620 But now we have people who want to take that from us.
00:49:52.000 Tell me about in Colorado.
00:49:53.140 I was looking at a piece of land in Colorado.
00:49:56.260 It was a little town, actually.
00:49:58.240 And they said, you have to be really careful here because you don't own the water.
00:50:07.240 And I said, well, what does that mean?
00:50:10.760 Yeah.
00:50:11.020 And they said, well, in Colorado, even the water that falls as rain.
00:50:16.580 That's correct.
00:50:17.240 The water belongs to the state.
00:50:19.760 It belongs to somebody.
00:50:22.440 Somebody down.
00:50:23.380 But not you.
00:50:24.080 But not me.
00:50:24.780 I can remember when my dad, and this gets into some very convoluted and confusing stuff,
00:50:30.900 but I can remember my dad told me in the 1950s, he says, I remember when they came and stole
00:50:35.640 our water.
00:50:36.680 And I said, what did that mean, dad?
00:50:38.520 And he said, well, we owned our water under the ground until the 1950s.
00:50:43.080 And the state come in and said, no, that's not your water.
00:50:45.640 You have the right to use it, but it's not yours.
00:50:48.000 They have what they call preemptive rights.
00:50:50.440 And so some of these rights go back to the 1870s.
00:50:53.960 Those people still own their water rights.
00:50:56.520 But over the years, the need for water in Colorado has increased because of the front range increase
00:51:04.980 in population.
00:51:05.680 And so in my county, Crowley County, Colorado, they came in three different times.
00:51:12.140 And Aurora, Colorado, Denver, bought the water from the farmers that owned it from those preemptive rights.
00:51:18.780 So now when you sell your water rights, it's worth a fortune.
00:51:21.940 That water must go to feed the people, right?
00:51:27.900 So no longer, our county is no longer irrigated.
00:51:31.400 It is now dry land and there's no farming left.
00:51:34.620 And it became one of the poorest counties in the nation because we sold our water.
00:51:38.900 Some of the older generations kept that water.
00:51:42.080 But any water that is produced in Colorado that flows, flows out of the state, belongs to
00:51:48.680 somebody or somebody else.
00:51:50.340 Kansas came in and sued Colorado for their water down the Arkansas and the Republican
00:51:57.260 Rivers.
00:51:57.780 I think that was Nebraska.
00:51:59.860 And Kansas won that lawsuit.
00:52:02.420 So now any well that is irrigation well must be augmented.
00:52:06.520 They must keep track of that.
00:52:07.980 It's paid for.
00:52:09.880 You cannot capture your water in the big cities off of your houses.
00:52:14.900 That water must go into a tributary because it is owned by someone else.
00:52:18.200 Water law in Colorado is, if I was a young person, would be a great thing to get into.
00:52:24.020 It is enormous.
00:52:25.360 And I grew up and my dad told us, he said, kids, water's worth more than oil and gold.
00:52:31.120 He pounded that into our heads.
00:52:33.880 And it is.
00:52:34.680 And luckily, we have good water where we're at, but we don't have any water rights.
00:52:38.140 We just have the right to use it.
00:52:39.300 I was walking on a golf course once with a, I don't play golf and neither did he.
00:52:43.220 We were just on a golf course.
00:52:44.780 We're walking on this golf course and he's a multi-billionaire.
00:52:52.140 And he said, Glenn, buy water.
00:52:56.800 Yep.
00:52:56.960 That's all he said.
00:52:57.740 And then he turned around and started walking.
00:52:59.220 And I said there for a second, I'm like, I don't know what that means exactly.
00:53:02.960 And I walk, I run back up next to his side as he's walking.
00:53:06.420 I said, why do I feel like somebody who was walking a golf course with Rockefeller Senior?
00:53:14.580 Yeah.
00:53:15.160 And he said, buy oil.
00:53:16.580 And he said, because it is the next oil.
00:53:19.420 But he said something interesting to me.
00:53:21.280 He said, do not be the owner of the water.
00:53:25.420 He said, you will be an oil company.
00:53:29.440 You will be demonized and torn apart.
00:53:32.300 He said, you need to be somebody who is searching for water or purifying water.
00:53:39.080 He said, otherwise, you might as well be an oil guy.
00:53:42.160 Yeah.
00:53:42.600 I can see that.
00:53:44.460 Yeah.
00:53:44.640 Water is a huge thing in Colorado.
00:53:46.760 And, you know, here we go again under the America the Beautiful executive order 14.008, the 30 by 30, you know, Biden's America the Beautiful plan is supposed to take control of all conservative 30 percent of the land and water and water by 2030 across the United States, only to be followed up by the U.N.
00:54:12.940 50 by 50 by 50 resolution, you know, take conserve 50 percent of the water, the world's water and lands by 2050.
00:54:21.980 Totally changes us.
00:54:23.540 Oh, totally.
00:54:24.600 Let me ask you this.
00:54:25.560 I was at another friend who has probably 5,000 head of buffalo.
00:54:32.660 Wow.
00:54:32.960 And it's an amazing sight.
00:54:36.820 It's an amazing sight.
00:54:38.440 And we were talking and you could see that one doesn't really look like bison.
00:54:44.060 That one looks more like a cow.
00:54:45.600 A cattle.
00:54:46.460 Yeah.
00:54:46.860 And it's all from the inbreeding of, you know.
00:54:49.580 Sure.
00:54:50.360 And I said, where do you get the pure buffalo to start with?
00:54:57.220 And he said, you don't.
00:54:59.780 And I said, why not?
00:55:00.800 And he said, the government is the only owner of all bison, pure bison.
00:55:07.680 I did not know this.
00:55:09.000 Yeah.
00:55:09.120 And he said, they're Yellowstone.
00:55:11.320 And when they have to thin the herd, we'd take them.
00:55:15.420 We'd take them so we could we could bring that animal back and they won't do them.
00:55:21.840 He said, destroy them.
00:55:22.640 They'll destroy them before they'll ever get rid of them.
00:55:25.680 And to me, that said something about and then living next to them as a BLN, BLM.
00:55:32.300 They're not good conservationists.
00:55:34.740 They're not good landowners.
00:55:36.200 They're not good for animals.
00:55:39.080 No, they're not.
00:55:40.540 They're absolutely not.
00:55:41.520 They're fork-tongued.
00:55:44.780 That's no surprise to me.
00:55:47.320 I know that if you, you know, those management skills of those people I've often questioned because that's where really my advocacy started and was watching them try to manage my family.
00:56:00.920 What happened to your family?
00:56:02.000 Well, I grew up on a ranch in southeast Colorado.
00:56:07.340 We owned a ranch, but we also leased a big ranch.
00:56:10.280 And back in 1992, my dad decided he would buy that ranch.
00:56:15.320 And so within that parameter, it was fairly large.
00:56:22.180 There was 12,000 acres that belonged to the state of Colorado.
00:56:26.440 And it was in 160s, 320s, but it was unfenced.
00:56:30.900 And so the state came to us and said, hey, if you're going to buy this ranch, we want our 12,000 acres in one block.
00:56:37.120 And we want that block here.
00:56:39.560 And it happened to be over the main water source.
00:56:43.240 And so it stopped the sale of the ranch.
00:56:46.020 And they knew that we kind of—
00:56:50.540 How could they just declare that that's where they wanted it?
00:56:54.160 Yeah, that's the question.
00:56:55.060 And that's exactly why my dad said, ah, we're going to kind of back out of this.
00:56:59.000 But to make a long story short, in two weeks, they owned the ranch, the state of Colorado.
00:57:04.220 They're not supposed to be in the ranching business.
00:57:05.860 They're not supposed to be competing.
00:57:08.180 And now they own multiple ranches in partnerships with organizations like the Nature Conservancy.
00:57:15.680 And that has spread wildly in Colorado.
00:57:20.600 And so that's what happened to me.
00:57:22.980 That's what happened was that land taking.
00:57:24.880 And now we've got another deal coming on that Colorado passed through legislation that we needed to be 100% renewable by 2030.
00:57:34.180 So now we have companies, mega companies like XL Power coming in and saying, hey, we're going to put this power line across your ranch.
00:57:42.500 And we're going to pay you this much.
00:57:44.340 You don't have the right to negotiate with us.
00:57:48.200 We're going to take this land this way.
00:57:50.460 Here's what we're going to pay you.
00:57:52.820 And you've got to keep your mouth shut.
00:57:54.260 That's what's happening to me right now on our ranch in Colorado.
00:57:58.320 And no negotiations.
00:58:00.480 I said they offered us a dollar amount a year ago.
00:58:03.780 And I said, no.
00:58:04.840 No, thank you.
00:58:05.700 We've been here for four generations.
00:58:07.440 We've put the time and effort into our ranch.
00:58:10.220 We've put the time and effort back into our local community, which is most important for us, the youth of our community.
00:58:17.820 And you're going to tell us that if we don't take what you offer, we're going to eminent domain you.
00:58:24.100 That's what they told us.
00:58:25.540 And that's what they're trying to do.
00:58:28.040 No negotiations.
00:58:29.180 Is this even America?
00:58:31.080 Is this even America?
00:58:32.520 Not anymore.
00:58:33.100 Not anymore.
00:58:34.180 Not anymore.
00:58:35.560 I mean, my dad is rolling in his grave over a lot of things.
00:58:38.500 And there was a lot of things that happened over the last, since he's died in our country, that probably would have killed him.
00:58:47.120 And it's all interwoven, Glenn.
00:58:49.200 That's what you have to understand, is it is all that one-way ticket.
00:58:55.280 It's funny because people think this is about Biden and Trump or Democrats and the Republicans.
00:59:00.920 No.
00:59:01.140 It's not.
00:59:01.720 No.
00:59:01.840 It's the elites against the people.
00:59:04.080 Even the socialists and the Marxists are going to be very surprised.
00:59:08.520 They're not going to be the winner in the end.
00:59:10.580 No.
00:59:11.000 It's the giant corporations in bed with the governments of the world.
00:59:16.120 Absolutely.
00:59:16.840 And that pay-to-play system, that's why I always said, which I never will, run for legislation.
00:59:22.480 The first thing I would do is end lobbying.
00:59:25.240 This lobbying power is so enormous in the United States.
00:59:29.260 We can't do that.
00:59:30.040 We cannot keep a free country under pay-to-play.
00:59:34.340 We cannot do that.
00:59:35.600 We have to end that.
00:59:36.780 And these corporations that have taken total control of everything below them, you know, it's a real problem.
00:59:48.380 We better get on top of it.
00:59:49.700 But I think, you know, there was one individual here a while back that said, fundamental change.
00:59:56.540 And here we are.
00:59:59.580 Maybe he didn't have enough time in office to produce that fundamental change, but it's being done now.
01:00:06.260 We have, if we don't stop at this election, the world will be just a very different, it's not just America.
01:00:14.080 It's the whole world.
01:00:14.820 It's the whole world.
01:00:15.740 Whole world.
01:00:16.640 We know that.
01:00:17.680 We know that, you know, we know what the Bible says, and guess what?
01:00:21.900 Our enemies know what the Bible says.
01:00:23.520 And so they have to move fast.
01:00:28.200 And they are moving fast, Glenn.
01:00:29.880 Yeah, I know.
01:00:30.400 You know, it's a crazy place.
01:00:33.660 The only thing I worry about is my kid.
01:00:36.180 You know, what is going to happen to my kid?
01:00:37.920 And I hearken back to those images that we see on TV and in movies with them loading them on cattle cars.
01:00:48.640 And it comes to my mind often.
01:00:51.540 My son is an only child.
01:00:53.700 Well, he's got an older sister, but she's 30 years old.
01:00:56.700 She's out of the house.
01:00:58.380 So we're raising him as an only child.
01:01:00.240 And if I was to die, you know, what would he do?
01:01:05.620 What would he do?
01:01:06.800 That's why we have to ensure this protection that the Constitution gives us for individual liberty.
01:01:14.340 We have to do it.
01:01:15.780 Whatever it takes, we got to do it.
01:01:18.200 These guys down at the border, as far as I'm concerned, they're heroes today.
01:01:23.080 They're saying, no, we're not going to do this.
01:01:24.840 We're not going to destroy our country.
01:01:27.140 And that's a whole different convoluted mess.
01:01:29.400 But it's all part of it.
01:01:31.200 It's all part of the movement to destroy America.
01:01:35.080 You know, we have to be, we have to carry out our fiduciary duties as citizens.
01:01:43.920 Yeah.
01:01:44.460 We have to, Glee.
01:01:45.460 Yeah.
01:01:45.680 And do it in a way, we can be angry, as the scriptures say, we can be angry, but we cannot sin in our anger.
01:01:55.960 There is righteousness in our anger.
01:01:57.960 Yeah.
01:01:58.100 We can be angry, and we can protect our families as we need to protect them.
01:02:05.500 But we want to, if we're going to save America, and that's what ultimately we're trying to do, is save our country.
01:02:15.120 The greatest country on earth.
01:02:17.220 The beacon on the hill.
01:02:18.380 It is everything they say it is.
01:02:19.960 And the blood shed that these men and women, millions of men and women spilled their blood so we could sit here and talk like this without reprise, hopefully.
01:02:34.700 You know?
01:02:35.620 Yeah.
01:02:36.440 It's a big deal.
01:02:38.560 The good news is, we know how it ends.
01:02:42.000 I don't know what it's going to be like to get to that part, but evil is always conquered, and these rights are, they belong to him, not to us.
01:02:55.700 Amen.
01:02:56.120 And he's just not going to, I mean, we may lose them, but they'll be found by others someplace else, and freedom will not go away.
01:03:05.280 It just won't.
01:03:06.600 Yeah.
01:03:07.640 Chad, thank you so much.
01:03:09.460 Well, I hope you enjoyed it, and I sure enjoyed the conversation.
