00:00:00.000 As we celebrate America's 250th birthday this year, I'd like to ask you a question.
00:00:03.580 How much of the beef on America's grills actually come from America?
00:00:08.160 The answer is probably going to surprise you.
00:00:10.140 More than 85% of the grass-fed beef sold in grocery stores is not from America.
00:00:16.140 That's not good.
00:00:18.020 One of the reasons I like good ranchers is because of that number.
00:00:20.880 They partner with local farmers and ranchers to deliver 100% American meat straight to your door.
00:00:26.040 No imported mystery meat, just high-quality American beef, chicken, pork, and seafood raised right here.
00:00:33.680 I love what they're doing, bridging the gap between American families and American farms.

00:03:24.920 So it's Saturday afternoon, Twins Fall, Idaho. Very small little town. Great town. It's 2.30
00:03:31.080 in the afternoon. Jordan Salinas and his girlfriend are sitting in the drive-thru at the
00:03:34.640 in and out on Blue Lakes Boulevard. Their plan is just let's have some lunch, then we'll maybe go
00:03:41.180 ride some horses. And that's when people start running. They thought at first it was a kitchen
00:03:46.700 fire. That's what the mind does. It reaches for the ordinary explanation first, because the
00:03:53.060 ordinary explanation is always, well, almost always the right one. Employees are coming running out
00:03:58.920 the doors. People are crossing the road in a dead sprint. Kitchen fire has to be. Then pop, pop,
00:04:04.320 pop pop he gets out of the car he says it was automatic mechanical the only thing he remembers
00:04:12.380 from those seconds is his girlfriend saying don't don't what what honey out in that lot was a 24
00:04:19.760 four-year-old man with a rifle he had already fired into the restaurant he was firing at cars
00:04:25.580 cab driver was charging his tesla in the parking lot got hit a man named lane was just sitting at
00:04:32.540 the stoplight, watching the bullets go into the car directly in front of him.
00:04:36.560 And then the bullets started going the other direction, a pistol from the drive-through
00:04:39.820 line.
00:04:40.840 Then somewhere else in the same lot, an off-duty Idaho State Police Trooper doing exactly the
00:04:45.640 same thing.
00:04:48.320 He didn't like it when bullets started firing both ways, at least Salinas didn't.
00:04:54.460 He turned away from the restaurant, moved into the open parking lot, and killed himself.
00:05:02.540 Cohn said the shooter was focused on the man shooting back at him, and that's what let everybody else get out.
00:05:10.600 But three people still died.
00:05:13.300 Seven were wounded.
00:05:14.340 Two of them are critical condition.
00:05:16.580 One of the dead worked at the counter in a building that had just been open for nine days.
00:05:25.360 Jordan Salinas is 35.
00:05:27.540 He works in health care.
00:05:29.420 He lives in Kimberly.
00:05:30.320 and in 2021 he was there at a shooting at the boise town square mall that killed two people
00:05:37.120 it was then in there that he decided i'm not gonna that's not gonna happen again if i'm around it's
00:05:42.080 not gonna happen again he's decided he was gonna learn how to use a firearm so for five years he
00:05:48.120 drove out to the desert outside eden on weekends and he practiced five years every saturday he
00:05:55.400 He told the Idaho statesman he had never pointed a gun so much as an animal.
00:06:02.600 He said four words that he had run so many times in his head.
00:06:07.040 They had worn a groove inside of him.
00:06:09.160 Observe, orient, decide, act.
00:06:16.520 He's a citizen vigilante.
00:06:20.420 No.
00:06:20.940 Let me tell you a story.
00:06:25.400 Let me tell you who he used to be, up until recently.
00:06:30.500 Let me take you back to England, 1285, Edward I.
00:06:34.300 He signs the Statute of Winchester, and in it, a thing called the hue and cry.
00:06:41.480 What the hell is the hue and cry?
00:06:42.980 The hue and cry?
00:06:44.440 If you witnessed a felony, you were required by law to raise the alarm.
00:06:49.460 And then every able-bodied man who heard that alarm was required by law to drop whatever he was holding and join the chase.
00:06:58.280 Town to town, county to county, until the man was taken and handed over to the sheriff.
00:07:03.080 And if he got away because nobody came, the whole hundred paid for the crime out of their own pockets.
00:07:11.060 Your neighbor's stolen goods came out of your purse.
00:07:15.960 Same statute.
00:07:17.820 Every man was able to keep arms in his house
00:07:20.920 according to his means
00:07:22.940 and not for the king's army
00:07:25.120 but for exactly what happened Saturday.
00:07:29.680 That was the law 544 years.
00:07:33.680 For 544 years, that was the law.
00:07:37.620 There was no police force.
00:07:39.500 There was you and your neighbor.
00:07:42.680 You know that London didn't get a police force
00:07:44.500 until 1829. 1829. And the founding principle written down for that first force was this.
00:07:54.160 The police are the public, and the public are the police. Officers being only members of the public
00:08:01.200 who are paid to give full-time attention to the duties which they are incumbent on every citizen.
00:08:07.860 So police officers were just like you. I've said this so many times.
00:08:12.140 you're the first responder it wasn't until jimmy carter where first responders became the police
00:08:20.060 officers or the ambulance you had always been the first responder police just paid to do full time
00:08:30.120 what was already your job the badge is a new thing the citizen is the old thing so citizen
00:08:37.280 No, no. Saturday afternoon in that parking lot.
00:08:43.340 He had them both standing 45 feet apart.
00:08:46.980 Trooper on his day off, no uniform, no radio, no backup, no call.
00:08:51.260 And a health care worker from Kimberly who just wanted a burger.
00:08:56.980 Neither one of them was on duty.
00:09:00.360 Yet both of them were on duty.
00:09:07.280 I wish this was more of a story where the good guy wins, but not really, because three families got a knock on the door.
00:09:16.620 Two people are still in critical condition.
00:09:20.080 I don't think anybody in Twin Falls is calling this a victory today.
00:09:26.000 not all of us are capable of running into gunfire
00:09:37.020 and not all of us should be running at gunfire
00:09:39.620 everybody needs a gun
00:09:43.600 Salinas is not a hero because he had a gun
00:09:49.620 that's Idaho
00:09:50.440 half the parking lot had a gun
00:09:52.260 I can guarantee it
00:09:53.220 half the parking lot had a gun
00:09:55.960 This guy's a hero because for five years of Saturdays in the desert outside Eden, when nothing was happening, nobody was watching, there was no reason on earth to keep going out there, he did.
00:10:14.380 I've said this a million times.
00:10:17.540 Courage isn't manufactured in the moment.
00:10:21.740 It's withdrawn in the moment.
00:10:25.200 You can only take out what you've already put in.
00:10:33.480 It's an interesting side note to this story.
00:10:36.080 Within hours, the internet had the wrong man.
00:10:39.260 Police chief had to come out and say, no, this is on Sunday.
00:10:43.240 No, no, the name going out circulating online, that's wrong.
00:10:48.140 He had nothing to do with this whatsoever.
00:10:50.960 You have it wrong.
00:10:51.780 Thousands of people with all of the time in the world, every tool available to them, got it wrong.
00:11:00.520 One man with about four seconds got it right.
00:11:10.180 Observe, orient, decide, and act.
00:11:18.480 You know what our problem is?
00:11:21.780 Most of us stop and observe.
00:11:24.500 I mean, we are, I am a pro at observation.
00:11:28.120 I'm magnificent.
00:11:30.240 I could win medals at observing.
00:11:33.300 I think all of us could.
00:11:35.540 We are gold medalists in observing.
00:11:41.540 Because we haven't even thought about the other ones.
00:11:44.660 We just observe.
00:11:45.860 Oh, no, no, we observe and then we'll grab our cell phone and we'll record it.
00:11:51.780 You know, the rest of this isn't about talent.
00:11:55.520 It's habit.
00:11:57.320 And habit is only ever a thing that you did on a day when it didn't matter.
00:12:04.200 So you'd have it on the day when it did matter.
00:12:11.400 Things could have been a lot worse.
00:12:13.640 A lot worse.
00:12:16.740 In this small little town in Idaho.
00:12:21.780 If it hadn't been for one man.
00:12:27.180 Go find your desert.
00:12:30.880 Go out on Saturdays.
00:12:35.360 And do more than observe.
00:12:38.300 Life is not a spectator sport.
00:12:43.180 Our sponsor, This Half Hour's Relief Factor.
00:12:45.800 Pretty much everything in your life that has value comes with some kind of warranty.
00:12:49.640 Your car does, your refrigerator does, your washing machine does.
00:12:53.260 You probably paid extra to protect your television in your living room.
00:12:56.480 Sucker.
00:12:58.040 The one thing that you actually have to live in for your entire life doesn't have a warranty.
00:13:04.820 There's no warranty on this thing.
00:13:06.360 It's your body.
00:13:08.180 Most, you know, most of us take better care of the things we own than the things that we came in.
00:13:15.960 I learned that lesson the hard way.
00:13:18.020 Oh, my gosh.
00:13:19.640 I tell my kids, well, my kids know, my kids know, because their mother tells them all the time, your dad, see me, see me, I'm in good shape, see your dad, he never took care of himself, try relief factor, when your body, my hands were in so much pain, I could not paint, I couldn't draw, I couldn't do anything, and I really like handwriting notes,
00:13:46.100 I'm still a paper fiend.
00:13:47.680 Paper and pencil is my favorite tools.
00:13:50.760 Over half a million people have tried Relief Factor to get out of pain.
00:13:53.440 I'm one of them.
00:13:54.100 Two-thirds have gone on to order more.
00:13:56.060 I'm one of them.
00:13:57.140 You can get three weeks for just $17.76.
00:14:00.300 Just go to relieffactor.com or call 800-4-RELIEF.
00:14:03.420 800, the number 4-RELIEF.
00:14:05.280 It's relieffactor.com.
00:14:07.820 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:14:09.940 10 seconds, station ID.
00:14:16.100 All right, so I want to talk to you about something else.
00:14:28.860 Thomas Massey, who I really like.
00:14:30.900 I like Thomas Massey.
00:14:32.260 I don't know what is wrong with Thomas Massey lately.
00:14:34.820 I think Thomas has gone off the deep end.
00:14:38.620 But, you know, he's still my friend.
00:14:41.000 We can disagree on lots of things, and he's still my friend.
00:14:43.120 um he wrote don't fall for the fake fox gop outrage two weeks ago the house passed a bill
00:14:50.760 that greenlit the transfer of spanish territory to morocco every republican except for me voted
00:14:57.780 for it but now they're acting shocked at the at the invasion i read that and i'm like wait wait
00:15:03.620 a minute what so i looked up what he was um what he was doing because a lot of people were responding
00:15:11.100 See, we were involved.
00:15:14.920 Okay, the bill he voted against was H.R. 8595.
00:15:20.760 And it was the standard appropriations bill for State Department funding in 2027.
00:15:26.000 Massey was the only Republican to vote against it because he's unreliable, quite honestly.
00:15:32.480 However, if you read the bill, it has zero language related to Spain or Morocco.
00:15:40.140 not mentioned, not mentioned at all. Wait a minute. I saw the screenshot. I saw the screenshot.
00:15:48.400 Thomas Massey posted the screenshot of the bill. No, no, he didn't. No, he didn't. And he knows
00:15:54.180 better than this. He posted the screenshot of the committee report, which has absolutely
00:16:01.300 no staying power, no hold. No, there is no law in that. It that's, that's what the committee
00:16:08.540 he talked about. Then it goes and it's written into a bill. That wasn't in the bill. So he got
00:16:15.040 that part wrong. Now, what happened? Do you understand what I'm talking about here? What
00:16:28.120 I'm talking about is when the Moroccans invaded the territorial land of Spain and just took it
00:16:35.520 over and it looks now like the the government of spain may have been involved they say they're
00:16:41.720 investigating all of the uh the facebook posts but they may have been involved in this this was
00:16:47.820 coordinated by somebody it was coordinated ricky disagree with that no no i was just gonna say do
00:16:55.220 you mean the government of morocco may have been involved or the government yeah yeah yeah okay
00:16:59.160 Yeah, the government of Morocco.
00:17:02.340 And so they were absolutely involved in this.
00:17:04.960 And I think Spain just turned a blind eye to it.
00:17:07.560 I mean, they sent 61 soldiers.
00:17:08.880 So, I mean, I don't know what's happening with Spain other than they're socialists.
00:17:14.940 So what actually happened?
00:17:17.760 What was our involvement?
00:17:22.160 Our involvement, I think, was this.
00:17:29.160 because it was in the committee report that we say,
00:17:35.860 hey, you know what?
00:17:36.900 Maybe Spain should return that land to Morocco.
00:17:41.680 It's always been Spanish.
00:17:43.500 Maybe we should do that.
00:17:44.400 We support that.
00:17:45.800 But that wasn't in the bill.
00:17:48.820 I think Donald Trump has a very long memory
00:17:52.760 and can be a very vindictive guy.
00:17:55.980 and uh i have a feeling you know when we didn't get our you know our planes weren't allowed to
00:18:06.060 fly over spanish territory i think donald trump remembered that and if there was any indication
00:18:12.840 to our state department that this might happen we might not have made a phone call
00:18:20.140 i don't think we are involved but i think you know if you listen to what marco rubio said
00:18:26.720 where was it that he said this over in europe when he was like we're not going to get involved
00:18:31.020 in all this stuff we're just not going to do it where was that a few months ago munich that's
00:18:36.360 right that's right so he's in uh he's in germany and he's like we're just not going to get involved
00:18:40.880 in it well that was the one way of not getting involved we're not even going to make the phone
00:18:44.320 call i don't i don't know if any of that is true don't know if any of that's true i just know that
00:18:49.580 we didn't have anything to do with it. But that doesn't mean that we didn't turn a blind eye to
00:18:55.920 it. And Morocco, you know, I have to look up Morocco, because I've heard mixed reports on
00:19:00.940 Morocco. I've heard Morocco is not an extremist state. You know, Morocco is the first country in
00:19:08.360 the world that right after the Declaration of Independence was signed, they recognized us as a
00:19:14.200 state. Um, and they've always been very friendly to the United States. It is an Arab, uh, land.
00:19:22.960 Um, but I, at least it didn't used to be extremist Arab, but I don't know. I don't know
00:19:29.780 anymore. I haven't, you know, with all the things going on in the world, I haven't done my Moroccan
00:19:34.700 homework. Uh, and you know what? I don't think I'm going to. So I just don't care that much.
00:19:42.060 I really, I'm sorry, I'm going to let that one, I'm going to let that one go.
00:19:46.240 But I just wanted to point this out because this is how conspiracy theories start.
00:19:53.000 Somebody with some credibility, Thomas Massey, whom I like, says something that, unfortunately, Thomas, you know that's not true.
00:20:01.580 You know that's not true.
00:20:03.360 Now, you could have said, yes, but it was in the bill, so we were talking about it.
00:20:08.300 So a lot of members don't have a problem with that.
00:20:10.520 Okay, that's different.
00:20:12.060 That's different than everybody voted for this bill that says return the property.
00:20:17.160 That's not true.
00:20:19.320 And when you have one untruth, I'm going to call it what it is, a lie, even though parts of it could be construed as, well, maybe kind of, if you look at it this way, kind of true, that's the beginning of a conspiracy.
00:20:37.360 And we don't need anybody else discrediting the United States of America.
00:20:42.720 We're doing a fine job on our own.
00:20:45.260 We don't need anybody to dogpile, especially somebody who is a sitting member of Congress.
00:20:52.880 So, sorry, Thomas.
00:20:57.400 It's not right.
00:20:58.720 It's not right.
00:21:00.100 And, you know, we also have the press.
00:21:03.220 Can I please play the cut of RFK Jr. on CNN talking to Dana Bash?
00:21:09.960 I mean, he is pushing back on the vaccine research and the way the the way that CNN handled all of it.
00:21:16.180 Listen to this. This is our let me ask you something.
00:21:18.620 Do you see your job as ending vaccine hesitancy or do you see your job as telling the truth to the American?
00:21:25.860 I see my job as telling the truth. And the truth is that there is is study after study after study.
00:21:33.400 It's one of the most studied things out there in science.
00:21:36.320 You're repeating it like a parrot. You're repeating it like a parrot.
00:21:40.580 So I've actually read the science. You don't want to come back here and debate the science.
00:21:46.000 I'm not debating this. Of course you are.
00:21:48.180 No, because I'm not. All you know how to do is repeat things that people told you and say, trust the experts.
00:21:54.640 That's what you did during COVID.
00:21:56.840 Now we know that Andy Fauci, who was the expert, was lying about everything, about masks, about social distancing, about natural immunity, about the transmission from the vaccine, about the source of COVID.
00:22:10.580 He was lying and you were punishing people for not trusting the experts.
00:22:15.180 And now you're rolling out the experts again to talk about something that you have no personal knowledge of.
00:22:21.420 Okay, well.
00:22:23.720 That's what I do.
00:22:24.780 She went on to say, that's what I do.
00:22:26.500 And it is.
00:22:27.560 Anybody know who her husband is?
00:22:29.660 It is what they do.
00:22:31.400 All right, let me talk to you about chapter.
00:22:33.580 Have you ever looked at your credit report and found something that didn't belong?
00:22:37.740 Kind of a strange feeling.
00:22:38.740 Somebody somewhere out there has a file on you, and the information in that file is just wrong.
00:22:43.600 Now, let me ask you something.
00:22:44.920 What if that file wasn't about your credit?
00:22:49.160 What if it was about your health care?
00:22:51.420 One of my listeners called in to Chapter because the Medicare costs just kept going up and nobody
00:22:57.260 could tell him why. His Chapter advisor started digging and discovered the record being used on
00:23:02.620 him to make decisions about his coverage was actually incorrect. It wasn't right. It wasn't
00:23:07.160 him. He got it fixed. Chapter got it fixed and then helped him find better options.
00:23:12.800 Chapter's advisors aren't paid to push you towards one plan or another. They're just
00:23:16.500 there to help you find out exactly what makes sense for your situation so you have some peace
00:23:20.660 of mind. When somebody else is making decisions based on a file about you, it's probably worth
00:23:25.840 making sure they're reading the right file. They compare every medical plan nationwide. They've
00:23:31.140 saved people an average of $1,100 a year in health care savings in this audience. And it's free.
00:23:36.640 Takes 20 minutes. Dial pound 250. Say the keyword chapter. Pound 250. Keyword chapter.
00:23:42.560 Coming up, the first parent in U.S. history just got prison time for a murder his son committed.
00:23:46.880 Is this justice? Glenn's surprising answer when we return on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:23:51.320 Coming on, yeah.
00:24:14.900 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:24:16.660 You know, I'm glad to have Jason on our staff.
00:24:22.520 I really am.
00:24:23.360 I was listening to the Insider podcast here just as we were going on, Insider for Torch.
00:24:29.980 While we go into commercial break, the Torch continues on, and he kind of gives inside information.
00:24:34.280 He gave really great information about Morocco.
00:24:37.220 Morocco is one of the good countries.
00:24:39.060 It was going poorly, and as he pointed out, it has turned a corner,
00:24:44.060 And they started going against the Muslim Brotherhood, et cetera, et cetera.
00:24:47.200 So it is one of the good countries.
00:24:49.880 All right.
00:24:51.140 I want to talk to you about something that happened on Thursday.
00:24:54.660 And this I understand because a lot of people are thinking this is a really slippery slope.
00:25:01.080 And I am too.
00:25:02.760 I am too.
00:25:06.840 And I want to be really careful on what happened on Thursday because I am very concerned.
00:25:12.360 you open up a door and things get really bad. Thursday morning in Winder, Georgia,
00:25:19.840 55-year-old guy comes into courtroom. He's wearing a striped jail uniform, sentenced to 15 years in
00:25:26.380 prison for a crime he was never accused of planning, never accused of knowing about,
00:25:31.360 and nowhere near when it happened. But he was charged with murder. Two days earlier in the
00:25:37.560 same courtroom before the same judge, his 16-year-old son got life without parole for
00:25:42.660 committing it. Colin Gray, he's the parent. He's the first parent in American history convicted
00:25:49.880 of murder for what his child did. Here's what he actually did. May 2023, deputies knock on his door
00:25:58.080 because the FBI had passed along a tip that someone in the house had threatened online to
00:26:03.220 shoot up a school the boy denied it said his account was hacked the tip was never substantiated
00:26:09.400 but before the deputies left one of the one of them said to the dad make sure you secure your
00:26:14.700 weapons that's key remember that seven months later at christmas dad buys his 14 year old son
00:26:23.180 an ar-15 style rifle the gun he puts on a closet shelf no lock no safe an ar-15 he puts it into the
00:26:35.460 on the top shelf of the boy's bedroom in the boy's bedroom there are photographs of the parkland
00:26:41.880 shooter pinned to the wall now the boy didn't attend a single day of eighth grade last year
00:26:47.860 or that year his mother and sister both went to the dad and said you've got to lock the gun up dad
00:26:54.460 his mother testified it was obvious the boy needed help and her husband just didn't want to deal with
00:26:59.780 it now here's the really bad part weeks before the shooting the boy texted his dad and said
00:27:06.400 and i quote whenever something happens just know the blood is on your hands okay
00:27:14.460 So September 4th, 2024, that rifle kills two students.
00:27:18.700 I shouldn't say that.
00:27:19.800 That rifle in the hands of his son kills two students and teachers at Apalachee High School.
00:27:26.060 Now, a Barrow County jury took under two hours to convict on all 27 counts.
00:27:31.140 He faced 180 years.
00:27:32.960 Judge Nichols, or Nichols Prim, gave him 15.
00:27:36.700 And from the bench, he said, you were convicted because the warning lights were flashing brighter and brighter, and you didn't get him help, and you didn't remove the access to his guns.
00:27:49.520 Okay, so is this justice or a father doing time for his son?
00:27:54.740 This is not good in many ways, but let's understand the state of Georgia.
00:28:01.900 Okay, we make the case for the state.
00:28:05.680 Nobody charged this man with knowing a plan.
00:28:09.500 The judge said so out loud.
00:28:11.060 These were crimes of negligence.
00:28:14.000 The theory is that the father was told by law enforcement at his own front door that his son had been reported threatening a school.
00:28:21.840 He was asked to secure the firearms, and then he went out and he bought the boy a rifle and left it within reach.
00:28:28.260 Also, the mother and the sister said the same thing.
00:28:31.520 The boy sends him a text.
00:28:33.280 This is not the sin of the son visiting on the father.
00:28:37.920 This is a purchase and a decision of the dad.
00:28:41.540 And if it sounds like a theory some ambitious prosecutor invented in 2026, it's actually not.
00:28:49.980 It's the oldest theory written into law.
00:28:53.140 If you go back to the Bible, most of our laws are built around the Bible.
00:28:58.700 Exodus 21 has a rule about an ox that kills a man.
00:29:02.600 If the ox has no history, never heard anybody, out of nowhere, the ox goes and the ox is then destroyed and the text says specifically the owner's not guilty.
00:29:15.400 It's a tragedy, not a crime.
00:29:18.680 The next verse.
00:29:19.980 If the ox was known to gore and the owner had been warned and he didn't pen it, then the owner's own life is forfeited.
00:29:29.980 Same ox, same dead man, only thing moved between those verses is that somebody told the owner.
00:29:38.920 This is also in the code of, what is it, I can never say this, Ricky, we were just talking about it off air.
00:29:47.700 The code of Hammurabi.
00:29:49.180 Right, Hammurabi, yeah.
00:29:51.360 The code of Hammurabi is from Babylon, two centuries earlier than the Bible.
00:30:00.980 Law 250, an ox gore is a man in the street, no history, no case.
00:30:05.180 Law 251, if the ox was known as a gore and his city ward had made it known to him,
00:30:10.000 he didn't pad the horns or tie the animal up, he pays.
00:30:14.140 Two peoples, two gods, two different sentries landing on exactly the same hinge.
00:30:20.280 Not the damage, not the intent.
00:30:22.320 Notice whether somebody told you or not.
00:30:26.840 So now 4,000 years later, a judge in Georgia says the warning lights were flashing brighter and brighter.
00:30:33.400 And he's saying in modern English that the ward had made it known to him.
00:30:39.620 Now the case for the defense.
00:30:42.880 An ox is property.
00:30:43.860 14-year-old is not property.
00:30:46.380 The ancient laws work because an animal is an instrument, a dangerous thing left unsecured.
00:30:51.200 Swap in a human being who thinks and chooses, and that law buckles.
00:30:54.900 Because in the same courthouse two days earlier, Georgia took the position that the boy was a full moral agent, tried himself as an adult, buried him for life while the judge told him he seemed proud of himself.
00:31:08.340 So is he a full moral agent or was he more like an ox?
00:31:15.120 Some would say you can't have it both ways.
00:31:17.100 Either the boy freely chose to murder four people, in which his case is the choice and the cause, or he was a loaded weapon just left lying around.
00:31:29.160 What are we doing giving weapons life without parole?
00:31:35.200 Now, the common law calls it superseding cause, and it's not a technicality.
00:31:40.220 It is a legal expression of human dignity.
00:31:43.480 Every man is the author of his own acts and nobody else's.
00:31:46.900 This is the collective and the individual that we've been talking about.
00:31:50.140 We are all about the individual.
00:31:51.860 You cannot pass the law against the son.
00:31:56.080 But here's the harder problem.
00:31:59.220 Georgia has no safe storage law.
00:32:02.000 None.
00:32:03.140 Its statute on handling firearms to minors covers pistols.
00:32:07.340 The legislature specifically declined to extend it to long guns and specifically allows a parent to give a minor one.
00:32:14.340 Okay, so nothing against the law there.
00:32:16.360 Buying your 14-year-old a rifle in Georgia, it's absolutely legal.
00:32:19.680 Storing guns unlocked, absolutely legal in Georgia.
00:32:23.340 Two, two of the legal acts.
00:32:29.060 A jury constructed a murder out of, wait, what?
00:32:36.700 In Georgia, it's different.
00:32:40.300 If you're an accomplice to murder, you're a murderer.
00:32:44.840 Everywhere else, you're an accomplice.
00:32:47.380 In any other state, they would say the father might have been an accomplice
00:32:53.000 because he didn't plan it, but he helped.
00:32:59.360 He helped.
00:33:01.240 Negligence.
00:33:04.820 So remove the rifle or every gun in the house, counseling or commitment.
00:33:10.740 How many warning signs make a duty?
00:33:12.960 I mean, the warning lights were flashing.
00:33:17.040 It's a nice sentence, but is that the standard that can be given to somebody and say, hey, there's warning lights?
00:33:26.040 Well, I mean, I have been in the same situation with my kids at times, not this situation, but where you're like, I don't know what they're going to do.
00:33:33.640 And that's where I err in favor of safety.
00:33:38.880 If I thought they were a danger, I wouldn't give them a gun.
00:33:42.420 I would lock the gun up.
00:33:43.640 I would take the gun away.
00:33:45.000 I would get the kid counseling, any of that.
00:33:47.280 But dad didn't do any of it, okay?
00:33:50.260 So his father is serving 15 years for underestimating.
00:33:55.660 I mean, law enforcement got the same tip.
00:33:58.700 They investigated.
00:34:00.160 They couldn't substantiate it.
00:34:01.720 They closed the file.
00:34:02.880 So why is the dad more?
00:34:04.760 I mean, we could play this game all day, okay?
00:34:07.280 Because not one government employee is going to spend a night in jail.
00:34:09.980 But they knew just as much, didn't they?
00:34:17.620 Georgia makes it a felony to cause a child cruel or excessive pain through criminal negligence.
00:34:24.720 That's the law.
00:34:26.380 Criminal negligence.
00:34:28.220 It's a felony.
00:34:29.920 In 2014, the legislature added second-degree murder,
00:34:35.380 cause of death while committing an offense,
00:34:37.540 And it is murder, irrespective of malice, 10 to 30 years.
00:34:43.140 So what does all of this mean?
00:34:47.780 What all of this means is that I think this is a specific thing in Georgia.
00:35:00.180 The Constitution does carry a personal guilt principle.
00:35:05.420 Article 3 forbids corruption of blood, and the first Congress wrote the same guarantee
00:35:10.460 into every first federal criminal code in 1790.
00:35:14.760 Hang a man in the morning, and his children will still keep the farm.
00:35:18.660 It's only the guy who pulled the gun.
00:35:21.580 But that principle doesn't get Colin Gray out.
00:35:24.460 Corruption of blood is punishment for another man's crime because of a relationship.
00:35:29.960 He was punished for his own act or failure to act.
00:35:33.320 The Constitution shields you from your son's conduct.
00:35:37.240 It never shields you from your own conduct.
00:35:43.280 So where did the court go wrong, or did they?
00:35:46.500 I don't think they went wrong in the outcome.
00:35:50.360 They went wrong in the word.
00:35:54.300 Murder has always meant a guilty mind.
00:35:57.120 A statute producing murder convictions, irrespective of malice, hasn't expanded a crime.
00:36:03.880 It's hollowed out one and kept the label because the label is what juries react to.
00:36:09.640 Manslaughter is the honest name here.
00:36:12.860 It's what the Crumblies got in Michigan for roughly the same time.
00:36:17.220 Prim faced 180 years, imposed 15.
00:36:20.960 That's at the bottom of the range.
00:36:22.400 You know what that says to me?
00:36:23.280 that says the judge is applying a statute he's really uncomfortable with.
00:36:29.020 And here's where the real failure is.
00:36:31.980 The legislature.
00:36:33.980 If Georgia believes a warned parent must lock up guns,
00:36:38.280 Georgia should pass a law saying so.
00:36:41.300 Define duty. Define trigger.
00:36:43.760 Published in advance.
00:36:45.280 Instead, the legislature declined to write a rule
00:36:47.980 and the jury supplied it afterward on the worst facts.
00:36:51.520 Four coffins in the room.
00:36:53.480 That's not the rule of law.
00:36:55.200 That's the rule of aftermath.
00:37:00.180 And the slope, the thing that we're all worried about.
00:37:03.660 Nobody expands state power on a sympathetic case.
00:37:07.020 They expand it on a monster.
00:37:10.180 Then they keep the tool.
00:37:12.200 The next defendant won't have a shrine on the wall and a confession by text.
00:37:18.600 It'll be a divorced dad who missed what a counselor also missed.
00:37:23.280 Because this rule sets up, you know, lock up your guns.
00:37:31.580 It doesn't set that up.
00:37:33.360 It sets this up.
00:37:34.660 If the lights were flashing and you didn't do enough, you're tethered to the outcome.
00:37:39.120 Well, what is the definition of enough?
00:37:41.820 It gets defined by 12 people looking backward at the worst day of your life.
00:37:46.620 Colin Gray, I think, belongs in prison.
00:37:49.340 The Goring-Ox law has been right for 4,000 years, and he's on the wrong side of it.
00:37:54.280 But those old codes bothered to distinguish the ox nobody knew about from the ox that everybody did know about.
00:38:01.440 Because a free people have to say things out loud in writing before it takes a man and his whole life and throws him away.
00:38:10.980 Georgia, you need to say this out loud and write it down.
00:38:14.800 Otherwise, it will be the slippery slope.
00:38:18.680 when you write it down, then you can enforce it to the hilt.
00:38:24.160 This is complex because I almost said this was a mistake.
00:38:29.980 It wasn't.
00:38:30.680 Dad belongs in jail, but not the way they did it.
00:38:36.420 That opens the door for every divorced dad.
00:38:41.020 And divorced dads always get the shaft.
00:38:44.420 Georgia, correct this.
00:38:46.620 Call your legislature now. Correct this. Define it. Make sure 12 members of a jury aren't defining it every new case. Define this. Because believe me, some lawyer is going to be finding all kinds of stuff to use on possibly you in the future.
00:39:09.780 all right unfortunately here's the way they use the news usually works big story is everywhere
00:39:17.780 until one week it isn't one week it's on on the front page of everything the next week something
00:39:22.560 else happens and the cameras have moved on and the world starts talking about something new and
00:39:25.960 it's like the problem never happened you know uh the people living through those stories don't get
00:39:30.980 to move on so easily and that is certainly true in israel long after the headlines have faded
00:39:35.480 families are still living with the threat of terrorism.
00:39:38.440 Parents are still sending their children to school,
00:39:40.540 wondering what the day might bring.
00:39:42.080 Communities are still rebuilding,
00:39:44.020 and the next siren could come at any moment.
00:39:46.880 That's why I'm thankful for the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews,
00:39:49.740 and they don't just pack up when the cameras leave.
00:39:51.640 They're there every day, providing food and emergency aid,
00:39:54.780 bomb shelters, critical support to people who need it most.
00:39:58.360 Could I ask you to join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
00:40:01.180 just in praying for the people of Israel,
00:40:03.280 for protection, for peace, for strength, long-lasting peace.
00:40:07.580 Together, we can remind God's people that they are not alone.
00:40:11.400 Stand with the Jewish people in prayer.
00:40:14.140 Do it by visiting PrayIFCJ.org.
00:40:17.720 PrayIFCJ.org.
00:40:20.780 Glenn Beck.
00:40:22.020 a few years ago when the opportunity came to challenge roe versus wade the alliance defending
00:40:37.300 freedom was there right there in the thick of it just a few months ago they won a major free
00:40:42.620 speech case at the u.s supreme court on behalf of a christian counselor kaylee chiles and they
00:40:47.720 continue to take on the big business of our time, defending women's sports, protecting parents,
00:40:53.200 pushing back against the expansion of mail order abortion drugs, and standing up for God's design
00:40:58.500 for men and women. These battles don't end when the headlines fade. They continue in the courtrooms
00:41:03.800 and the legislature and the communities all across our country. That's why Alliance Defending Freedom
00:41:09.320 relies on people like you. Your support helps them defend the God-given rights and freedoms that so
00:41:14.780 many americans have simply taken for granted until now for a limited time every dollar you give to
00:41:20.680 adf will be matched that means 25 becomes 50 50 becomes 100 but only while the matching funds

00:41:35.340 join adf.com slash back
00:41:37.340 so this key the key to this story in georgia is really for me it falls on two two things
00:41:54.380 you're you're told your son is dangerous okay well can you prove it no the police can't prove it
00:42:00.400 but you're told then your wife tells you then your daughter tells you dad
00:42:04.320 to me he could have not done anything about that and he wouldn't have committed a crime i would
00:42:11.100 have called him into question but he wouldn't have committed a crime he then goes out and buys a gun
00:42:16.700 and puts it in his son's bedroom with the killers on his wall then his son texts him and says if
00:42:24.080 something does happen blood is on your hands do you not respond to that text do you not go into
00:42:29.740 the room and take that gun from him immediately that's the key to this story keeping yourself and
00:42:36.060 your family safe means being prepared for situations that can you know put you or them
00:42:40.200 in danger it means being prepared for all the situations you know even those situations where
00:42:45.220 deadly force is not needed in fact it's a real problem there are more of those than you think
00:42:49.880 and if you're a gun owner it's unfortunately easy to think a gun will provide you all the safety it
00:42:54.360 needs but you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody and i'm i'm not in

00:46:18.040 so bill maher uh definitely not a conservative um a couple of weeks ago came out and said hey
00:46:27.760 my vote is up for grabs if these socialists are the are the choice have you have you read what
00:46:35.160 they say you hear what they're for i'm not with them and apparently he said i went on vacation
00:46:41.320 and everybody was yelling at me,
00:46:42.880 how dare you?
00:46:43.380 You're a Republican.
00:46:44.500 He's like, I'm not a Republican.
00:46:46.200 I'm just not stupid.
00:46:49.600 So he reads a few sentences out loud on HBO
00:46:53.240 and his own audience gasps at this.
00:46:56.760 This is not a conservative audience.
00:46:58.640 It's not a church crowd in Tulsa.
00:47:00.860 It's Los Angeles,
00:47:02.080 an audience that shows up on a Friday night
00:47:03.920 to laugh at Republicans.
00:47:05.860 And Marr told them
00:47:06.720 the Democratic Socialists of America
00:47:08.300 have gone openly communist.
00:47:10.240 That when the president says it, it happens to be true.
00:47:15.060 And that his own party, being right now, his own words, is being colonized.
00:47:23.900 Then he read from a post of one of Mayor Mamdani's top aides urging people to vote for communist candidates.
00:47:29.800 And the room went deathly quiet. Listen.
00:47:33.260 Donald Trump has told one trillion lies.
00:47:35.880 But when he says the democratic socialists of America are actually communist, that's not one of them.
00:47:42.580 And it's not hard to prove it just by quoting the DSA and their candidates.
00:47:47.340 Let's just read the quotes.
00:47:49.200 The DSA platform says, your work, you work as much as you are able and no more than needed.
00:47:55.660 If that was any closer to Karl Marx's dictum from each according to his abilities to each according to his needs, they'd be sued for plagiarism.
00:48:02.880 plagiarism. Not to leave any doubt, New York Mayor Mondani once tweeted Karl Marx's words exactly.
00:48:10.620 They're not trying to hide it. Their most popular influencer, Hassan Piker, thinks communism is so
00:48:17.320 groovy. He laments the fall of the two of the most murderous regimes in history, the Soviet Union and
00:48:24.220 Chairman Mao's China. Mondani's aide, his top aide, Sia Weaver, said if you don't believe in the
00:48:30.480 government's sacred right to seize property it's over and impoverish the white middle class
00:48:36.760 what that's a that's a goal
00:48:40.200 he then um he goes on and the key to this the the reason the response to the gasp the most
00:48:52.060 important thing he said all night um he just read a tweet that said more people should vote for
00:48:56.860 communists. And it was from a democratic socialist candidate. Okay. And they went,
00:49:02.040 he looked at them and said, good. I'm glad you're shocked. People have to realize this is going on.
00:49:10.660 We're in a moment here right now. And Bill Maher may be the most important man on the planet
00:49:17.560 to stop this. This is something that I've been warning about forever. This is the reason I do
00:49:23.820 this job. If it wasn't for the people who are actually communist, actually socialist, actually
00:49:29.700 want to destroy our country, if they were just Democrats, I wouldn't be doing this job. I really
00:49:34.360 wouldn't. It's not worth it. It's not. These people are serious, and I've seen them coming forever.
00:49:43.300 But here's what I want you to understand in the moment. Nothing read was leaked. Nothing was hacked.
00:49:49.960 Nothing came from a whistleblower or an undercover camera or a dossier.
00:49:54.780 Everything he said in that entire monologue, and I urge you to go watch the whole thing and share it, is published.
00:50:01.780 It's sitting public.
00:50:02.940 It's sitting on a website with a nice red and white design and a friendly cartoon fist waiting for anybody in America or around the world to click on it.
00:50:12.360 The address of this program is dsausa.org.
00:50:20.620 dsausa.org.
00:50:21.900 Write it down.
00:50:23.360 It is the most effective thing in American politics right now.
00:50:27.080 And neither party wants to talk about it.
00:50:30.040 So let me tell you what's on it.
00:50:32.500 They call it Workers Deserve More.
00:50:35.480 It opens with a lovely little story about a day off in the world without capitalism.
00:50:39.960 You don't have debt.
00:50:41.180 You have no mortgage, no landlord, no health insurance because you don't need it.
00:50:46.360 Food, education, energy, medicine, transportation are no longer businesses.
00:50:50.700 You can walk your kids to school.
00:50:52.580 You can read a book.
00:50:53.900 You meet friends for dinner.
00:50:56.040 It reads like a brochure for a very nice retirement community.
00:51:00.160 And that's the point.
00:51:01.880 That's the part they want you to read.
00:51:04.540 Then scroll.
00:51:06.240 Under the headings of mass incarceration,
00:51:08.980 They don't say reform the police. They say demilitarize departments, break the police unions, and move the money as steps towards, their words, not mine, fully abolishing the police and prison system, end quote.
00:51:25.220 That's sign of a lunacy. That's just lunacy. These are lunatics.
00:51:29.040 But why stop there? Under working class democracy, they call for abolishing the Senate, abolishing the Electoral College, replacing the president and the Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by Congress, answerable only to Congress.
00:51:48.320 I want you to think about that one.
00:51:50.460 This isn't a policy proposal.
00:51:52.640 This is the removal of two of the three branches of the government of the United States.
00:51:57.280 This is a complete redo of the Constitution.
00:52:01.440 It's throwing all of it out and starting fresh.
00:52:05.580 You into that?
00:52:06.560 Democrats, is that what you want?
00:52:08.980 Under economic democracy, public ownership of the largest corporations and essential industries.
00:52:15.100 so they do want to own the machine.
00:52:21.600 Okay, under foreign policy, defund the Department of War.
00:52:25.380 Now listen to this.
00:52:26.520 I just want you to think,
00:52:28.020 what is the world's response for America
00:52:31.860 defunding the Department of War,
00:52:34.280 closing all of our overseas bases,
00:52:36.760 abolishing ICE,
00:52:38.260 an end to all detention and deportation,
00:52:41.440 amnesty for everyone regardless of status,
00:52:44.240 and end to sanctions on Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran.
00:52:48.080 Those three countries by name on their own website.
00:52:52.880 Wow, that's quite a world, isn't it?
00:52:55.960 And in the preamble, the sentence that ties the whole thing together,
00:52:59.460 they are building a party to draft a new constitution
00:53:03.580 and to create a new democratic socialist republic.
00:53:08.600 Not amend this, not to reform America, draft a new one.
00:53:14.240 now you share this with people i can guarantee you i can i can see it because i can see it in
00:53:20.720 my own family's eyes okay what they'll do is they'll roll their eyes they're like these are
00:53:25.320 fringe kids on the internet and they don't speak for anybody well the website answers that too
00:53:31.000 there's an author's note at the bottom the program was drafted between april and june of this year
00:53:36.760 by a committee elected through the process of their own 2025 national convention the committee
00:53:42.640 included members of their national political community,
00:53:45.620 their board of directors,
00:53:46.880 and leaders of their national committees.
00:53:49.020 They went to the NPC to amend, finalize, and approve.
00:53:53.000 This is not a blog post.
00:53:54.800 This was a ratified governing document
00:53:57.300 produced by leadership
00:53:58.700 for the purpose of guiding those who get their endorsement.
00:54:03.420 Okay?
00:54:03.960 And that endorsement is very important to some people.
00:54:08.680 This is not the Democratic platform.
00:54:12.640 We care about those, right?
00:54:14.700 You're supposed to care about those.
00:54:16.100 What's in there?
00:54:16.820 It tells you.
00:54:19.900 And this isn't a small organization anymore.
00:54:22.380 On the 4th of July, they announced they passed 121,000 members,
00:54:25.900 which, according to their own numbers,
00:54:28.100 makes them the largest socialist organization in American history,
00:54:31.720 larger than Eugene Debb's Socialist Party at its peak in 1912.
00:54:36.100 Also, the Marxist Unity Group faction,
00:54:39.740 The one that Marr named holds three of the 25 seats on that national board.
00:54:45.620 Five of their members won congressional primaries this year.
00:54:50.020 Now, the second thing you're going to hear is, you're taking this out of context.
00:54:52.920 You're exaggerating.
00:54:54.080 That's a right-wing talking point.
00:54:56.500 No.
00:54:57.020 No, actually, the loudest voices saying it out loud are right now have a D after their name.
00:55:02.420 John Fetterman on the Democratic Socialist agenda, quote,
00:55:06.220 This isn't a big tent.
00:55:07.540 It's anarchy.
00:55:09.100 And then the question he put to his own parties, why can't Democrats call this out?
00:55:16.660 Henry Cuellar of Texas, quote, I read their platform and it's radical.
00:55:23.780 He wants Democrats to reject it by name.
00:55:27.700 Now, he's got standing to say it.
00:55:30.020 He says they spent more than $20 million trying to primary him twice.
00:55:34.880 He beat them both times running on border security and oil and gas jobs in a Democratic primary.
00:55:40.440 Mark Kelly of Arizona warned that abolishing police, prisons and borders and defunding the Pentagon don't make sense and will cost his party seats.
00:55:49.460 Annie Andrews running for the Senate in South Carolina as a Democrat called the ideas un-American and unhinged.
00:55:56.020 Rahm Emanuel says it's a losing message anywhere outside of a few zip codes.
00:56:00.900 And Chuck Schumer, asked directly whether his platform belongs in the Democratic Party, wouldn't answer because that guy's terrified.
00:56:08.200 There's one more piece, and it's the part most people have not heard.
00:56:12.240 Last week, Fox reported that people identifying themselves as DSA's own international committee have signed on to a statement from a group called Friends of Socialist China, a pledge to support and defend Chinese socialism.
00:56:27.680 Which, by the way, I just want you to know that socialism is full-fledged communism.
00:56:32.760 They say they're not for communism.
00:56:34.640 Well, they don't.
00:56:35.680 But others say they're not for communism.
00:56:38.240 Yet, they describe China as socialist.
00:56:42.960 By the way, let's not confuse when I say they.
00:56:45.400 I mean the Democrats say they're not communist.
00:56:47.320 But you're in bed with socialists who describe themselves as communist.
00:56:52.520 At least half of them.
00:56:53.540 And they describe the record of the socialist countries as overwhelmingly positive and calls the idea that socialism produces oppression a piece of capitalist propaganda that needs correcting.
00:57:05.500 Some of those names have been on that list since 2022.
00:57:08.480 This is not an outlier.
00:57:10.160 In January, the DSA issued a formal statement demanding that Nicolas Maduro be returned to Venezuela.
00:57:15.580 A research institute report in February documented their delegation's meeting with Maduro and the head of Cuba, followed by campaigns back home pushing exactly the policy priorities those governments wanted, including taking Cuba off the terror sponsor list.
00:57:33.580 Prison camps and thought control are propaganda.
00:57:38.240 Really? Maduro should be restored. Have you talked to people who live there?
00:57:42.860 The Chinese model deserves defending their words, their letterhead, their website, not mine.
00:57:50.940 So here's where I'm landing on this, and it might not be where you would think.
00:57:55.500 We don't need to beat these people.
00:57:58.780 We need to provide the introduction to these people.
00:58:05.240 You know, they can't wait to tell you who they are.
00:58:09.040 Look at the numbers.
00:58:09.740 echelon insights asked voters last month the free market came back at 40 plus 41 capitalism
00:58:18.480 plus 20 the dsa minus 21 socialism minus 29 communism minus 73 when reuters and ipsos
00:58:29.560 asked at the end of july whether democratic socialists have good ideas 51 said few or none
00:58:36.300 But in the same poll, 47% of Americans said they don't really even understand what democratic socialist policies actually are, so they couldn't comment.
00:58:46.060 Half the country, half the country has not been shown this document.
00:58:50.700 Half the country have no idea.
00:58:52.880 And in that vacuum, all they've heard is libraries and fire departments and free health care and a nice story about a day off.
00:59:02.360 That's why the fight isn't an argument.
00:59:04.680 It really is a link.
00:59:07.420 When your brother-in-law tells you this is fear-mongering, don't debate him.
00:59:11.220 Don't.
00:59:11.980 Don't cite me.
00:59:13.480 I'm not the source.
00:59:14.440 I don't want to be.
00:59:16.100 Just send him the URL.
00:59:18.140 D-S-A-U-S-A dot org.
00:59:21.940 Let him find the words fully abolishing the police and prison system on his own screen, in their own typeface, their own logo at the top.
00:59:31.440 Let him scroll down to see the author's note and see that the leadership has signed off on it.
00:59:37.040 Because the moment somebody discovers this for himself, it stops being a talking point from a radio host and becomes something he knows.
00:59:46.040 That's why I've always told you, you have to do your own homework.
00:59:49.120 I discovered when I was 30 that there was very little that I actually knew myself.
00:59:54.240 I had been told a lot of things, but I hadn't earned the right to say that's something I truly believed.
00:59:59.920 It was something I had heard.
01:00:01.440 or something that I was taught.
01:00:03.820 I had to go out and find them for myself.
01:00:07.240 And that's the beginning of what was happening
01:00:09.040 in Mars' studio Friday night.
01:00:10.780 Nobody argued anyone into anything.
01:00:13.320 He just read out loud from a document
01:00:15.180 to a room full of people who thought they knew
01:00:16.940 what they were supporting,
01:00:18.020 and they made a sound, oh boy.
01:00:20.960 They wrote it down.
01:00:21.740 They put it on the internet.
01:00:23.040 They're proud of it.
01:00:24.440 All we have to do is introduce them
01:00:26.960 to the rest of America.
01:00:28.880 Let Americans read it.
01:00:31.440 D-S-A-U-S-A dot org.
01:00:36.040 More in a minute.
01:00:39.560 All right.
01:00:40.580 You know, ever notice how everything seems like a good idea at two o'clock in the morning?
01:00:45.200 You know, here's what I'm going to do.
01:00:47.100 I'm going to rearrange the garage.
01:00:49.040 Let's watch TV for five hours.
01:00:52.400 I should probably read about the Byzantine Empire.
01:00:54.960 Your brain has this amazing ability to convince you that sleep is the one thing that you can put off until tomorrow.
01:01:00.000 And then tomorrow shows up.
01:01:01.440 and you're just beat tired.
01:01:03.400 You're impatient.
01:01:04.160 You can't focus everything.
01:01:05.580 You'll know about the Byzantine Empire,
01:01:07.300 what you can kind of remember.
01:01:08.560 It's a little fuzzy now.
01:01:10.140 I mean, it shouldn't be this hard.
01:01:11.480 You spend the entire day paying the price for a decision
01:01:13.640 you made at two o'clock in the morning
01:01:14.960 or one that you didn't make.
01:01:16.480 You just thought, I got to get up and do something.
01:01:18.260 I'll read about the Byzantine Empire
01:01:19.560 because it's more useful than just laying in bed.
01:01:22.540 That's why I'm a fan of Z Factor.
01:01:24.300 It's from the same people who created Relief Factor,

01:02:18.080 um she has chosen to campaign with piker and ilan omar uh she's democratic socialist
01:02:26.380 socialist you know but she says she's not that kind of democratic socialist she doesn't want
01:02:31.020 she went on going that far really really because i've heard you when you're with the people who
01:02:39.040 agree with that kind of stuff and you say all of the things that they're saying yep that's our goal
01:02:45.560 but she says to you when she's running for election no i'm not that far but i am a democratic
01:02:52.240 socialist i got news for you you read that website would you attach your name to that would you say
01:02:58.640 yeah i would like them to endorse me nope i wouldn't i wouldn't i don't care how big your
01:03:05.360 tent is at some point your tent is your tent is too big your tent is too big would you say your
01:03:14.080 tent is just a big tent if you let clan members into it no no first of all you wouldn't have a
01:03:20.320 a tent because they'd be cutting it up and making new uniforms for everybody no it's not a tent
01:03:24.660 that's that's not something you do you don't invite the clan because the clan can help you
01:03:29.460 you decide that's a bridge too far the dsa wanting to destroy the united states of america and
01:03:37.120 restart it with a whole new system is a bridge too far no no she doesn't um and she's even
01:03:47.840 campaigning with piker a guy who said um you know america deserved 9-11 and and said communism is an
01:03:58.080 honorable goal and they quote you know killing capitalists is a choice what what in what world
01:04:09.680 is that just a choice i mean it is a choice it's a bad choice it's an evil choice it's choice that
01:04:15.680 should get you sent to prison but i guess if you've abolished all of the prisons that's not
01:04:19.320 going to happen uh she is um she is ahead now in the primary and anything that has gone to stop her
01:04:28.660 has only made her stronger because that's the only thing that that's the only thing that democrats
01:04:32.660 know how to do is get in bed with these people and then when they start to win then they try
01:04:37.720 behind the scenes to do every trick they can to stop them and that only makes her base stronger
01:04:42.340 because they're like, look, they're everything we told you they were.
01:04:45.820 So what's going to happen?
01:04:47.760 Who is she?
01:04:49.060 Why does this matter in Wisconsin?
01:04:52.120 What's a sewer socialist?
01:04:55.480 I'll explain.

01:05:10.160 That drawer, you know what I'm talking about, stuff with owner's manuals that you'll never,
01:05:14.460 ever read again, never. All the warranty papers for equipment, you don't even own any more
01:05:18.920 receipts you're afraid to throw away. Somewhere near the bottom is a copy of your business
01:05:24.300 insurance policy. Meanwhile, business changes over the years. You hire new people, you buy new
01:05:29.400 equipment, you take different kinds of work on, you grow as a business. But during that time,
01:05:33.500 that policy doesn't change, most likely. That's why I like SuperSure. They help make sure that

01:06:18.240 surging in american politics it's never been more urgent to teach the next generation the
01:06:22.540 founding principles that built this country join torch today at glennbeck.com
01:06:36.300 so i want to take this a step further here um the dsa i think was last week asked several questions
01:06:57.400 about their own platform and their their own chair um answered seven questions and i think
01:07:04.340 it's worth looking at these seven questions um abolish the senate does that really want to
01:07:10.940 replace the presidency in the supreme court abolish ice abolish borders defund the pentagon
01:07:15.780 abolish prisons government ownership of the largest corporation seven yeses to all of those
01:07:22.260 okay seven yeses on the senate they said well it's uh it's an old timey kind of worn out
01:07:34.060 idea and it came from the british house of lords and it was built to keep ordinary people from
01:07:39.560 having too much to say that's checkable i mean okay maybe let's check it shall we it's not true
01:07:46.340 um and it's easy to find this in philadelphia the delegates from delaware carried a written order
01:07:52.900 in their coat pockets their own legislator had legislature and their governor had forbidden them
01:07:59.300 to give up equal representation under any terms, under any bargain. No, this was not the Lord's
01:08:07.360 protecting privilege. This was the small guy. This was a small state saying, wait a minute,
01:08:12.480 wait a minute. If Virginia and Pennsylvania can just outvote us forever, we're not signing.
01:08:17.800 No second chamber with that in it. No country. That's the whole origin. It was leverage,
01:08:24.860 not aristocracy all of the rich people were living in these big states new york virginia
01:08:30.160 and the little states they were the poor farmers and they were like wait a minute
01:08:33.580 these states they have all the corporations they have everything there they'll just outvote us
01:08:38.920 no and as i told you last week the dsa plan has already been tried in america by americans on
01:08:46.500 purpose in 1776 in pennsylvania new constitution is coming uh for pennsylvania and they decide
01:08:54.900 no governor just one house no break of any kind just the house okay benjamin franklin thought
01:09:02.160 two chambers were absurd the snake with the head at each end pulling itself apart is you know one
01:09:07.460 of the cartoons that comes to mind inside of a year that single chamber required every voter to
01:09:13.440 swear a loyalty oath to Pennsylvania. If you refused it, you lost your vote. You're standing
01:09:19.400 in court. In some cases, you lost your property. The Quakers refused on religious grounds and they
01:09:25.640 were stripped. October 1779, a mob marched on the House of Philadelphia and a lawyer who committed
01:09:33.340 the crime of defending accused loyalists in the court, he barricaded himself in with about 20
01:09:40.680 friends. Gunfire from the windows, gunfire from the streets. Men died on the pavement. That lawyer
01:09:46.440 was James Wilson. He had signed the declaration. He would go on to sign the Constitution and sit
01:09:51.140 on the first Supreme Court. The House was known afterwards as Fort Wilson. Pennsylvania threw
01:09:58.120 that Constitution out. It was a disaster. They started it in 1776. By 1790, it was over.
01:10:04.360 The second chamber isn't there to protect the powerful.
01:10:08.140 It is there so a bad afternoon can't become law by sundown.
01:10:13.480 Now, in fairness, Nebraska has a single-house legislature since the Depression, and it works.
01:10:19.300 It's also nonpartisan, about the size of a large church congregation.
01:10:23.080 So the DSA is proposing the opposite of Nebraska.
01:10:26.600 They're proposing Pennsylvania, and that didn't work.
01:10:30.200 The next thing when you listen to these people is listen for their disqualifiers because they all use them.
01:10:36.220 And when in this questioning from the press, the DSA chairperson did the same thing.
01:10:44.060 Abolish ICE. Absolutely.
01:10:46.380 Defund the Pentagon. Yes.
01:10:48.480 Government ownership of large corporations. Absolutely.
01:10:52.480 No hesitation. No daylight.
01:10:54.400 Abolish borders. Abolish prisons.
01:10:56.740 It comes with two extra words attached.
01:10:59.320 Well, long-term, yes.
01:11:01.220 As part of a long-term plan, yeah.
01:11:04.840 That's not a hedge.
01:11:06.360 That's a schedule.
01:11:08.420 And for anybody who's listened to me for a long time,
01:11:11.240 oh, you're going to love this little romp through history
01:11:14.120 because there was a general of the Romans
01:11:17.700 who's remembered for never, ever fighting.
01:11:22.160 Hannibal was loose in Italy.
01:11:23.580 He was burning his way south.
01:11:25.840 Rome wanted a battle.
01:11:27.560 But Fabius refused to give him one.
01:11:30.720 He shadowed the army instead.
01:11:32.280 He burned the crops ahead of it.
01:11:33.960 He picked off stragglers, wore it down, never, ever meant him in the field.
01:11:39.300 Rome despised him for it.
01:11:41.660 They nicknamed him the Delayer.
01:11:44.000 It was meant as an insult.
01:11:45.820 So they set his strategy aside, and they marched out to meet Hannibal in the open
01:11:49.580 and buried a generation of their own young men in a single afternoon.
01:11:54.660 Then they went back to Fabius, and he won the war by refusing to fight it.
01:11:59.600 Why am I telling you this?
01:12:01.540 Because that takes us to London, 1884.
01:12:05.340 A group of socialists chose his name for their society, the Fabian Society, deliberately.
01:12:13.120 And they knew exactly what they were signaling.
01:12:15.100 Their coat of arms is a wolf wearing a sheep's clothing.
01:12:19.920 The stained glass window, the famous Fabian socialist stained glass window, they had it commissioned.
01:12:26.140 It shows the founders swinging hammers at the globe on an anvil while somebody else is heating up the world.
01:12:33.820 They're beating it into a totally different shape.
01:12:36.780 So when a party chair tells you that the borders and the prisons are a long-term project, believe her.
01:12:43.320 Gradualism is not an accusation you have to prove against these people.
01:12:48.000 it's a boast they've been making for 140 years three last question's already been answered
01:12:55.680 the last line on the item on the list was government public ownership of most large
01:13:02.760 corporations and they say absolutely this one has been run as a live experiment and we have the
01:13:09.340 receipts over and over and over again it never works russia winter after the revolution decrees
01:13:19.060 come in a rush factories belong to the workers now the land belongs to the peasants the bankers
01:13:24.680 belong to the states and to feed the cities armed attachments go out into the countryside to take
01:13:29.860 the harvest at whatever price the state names now put yourself on this farm you've got seed
01:13:37.140 and a season and a back that hurts most likely
01:13:43.800 because you're a farmer.
01:13:45.460 What's your incentive?
01:13:47.060 To plant more?
01:13:49.280 Because if you plant more, they'll just take more.
01:13:51.680 Plant less, they take less.
01:13:53.980 And you keep your family fed on what's hidden in the barn.
01:13:57.520 So every farmer did the same thing
01:13:59.480 because it's human nature.
01:14:01.160 Every single one of them independently arrived
01:14:03.520 at the same arithmetic.
01:14:04.980 Production didn't decline.
01:14:06.120 It collapsed.
01:14:07.960 And then came the famine that killed millions of the very people
01:14:10.660 who the whole thing was supposedly for.
01:14:13.860 By 1921, Lenin stood up and legalized private trade again.
01:14:17.720 Called it the new economic policy.
01:14:20.480 No, it wasn't new. It was the old one.
01:14:23.020 Peasants could sell their surplus.
01:14:25.260 Small shops started to reopen.
01:14:27.060 Private ownership came back
01:14:28.300 because the alternative was a country of corpses.
01:14:32.700 Four years from the decree to the reversal,
01:14:36.120 signed by the same man.
01:14:39.420 It's a man who burns his furniture to heat his house
01:14:41.980 and then goes out in the cold to buy more furniture.
01:14:44.680 What do you do?
01:14:45.380 What?
01:14:46.780 Public ownership doesn't generate anything.
01:14:49.620 It just transfers.
01:14:50.960 It moves what already exists from the people who made it
01:14:53.980 to the people who didn't make it.
01:14:55.260 And it works beautifully right until the making stops.
01:14:59.140 And then it needs somebody new to blame
01:15:01.140 and someone new to take it from.
01:15:03.240 And it requires guns to take it.
01:15:05.280 And the answer to all seven questions that they were asked from the DSA, not one of them creates a dollar.
01:15:15.120 Not one of them builds a house, a bushel, or a job.
01:15:18.420 Every one of them is a plan for taking from somebody else something that they built and giving it to somebody else.
01:15:27.740 We've been there before. It doesn't work out. It won't work out this time.
01:15:31.740 once people understand what democratic socialism aka communism actually is they're not they're
01:15:40.760 not interested they're not interested as i said a few minutes ago this is the best thing that
01:15:46.260 could happen to us i'm really optimistic i saw that i saw that um uh monologue from bill maher
01:15:53.940 and i thought that is fabulous that is fabulous he's not on my side i mean i could go on his show
01:16:00.980 He used to ask me to come on his show all the time.
01:16:03.600 I would always say no, because I'm not going to be on a show where, you know, you have, you know,
01:16:07.780 I'm going to play the Christian, and you're the lion, and we have all the spectators cheering when you eat me.
01:16:14.280 No, I'm not interested in that.
01:16:17.640 But this is all the stuff that he used to make fun of.
01:16:21.520 He used to make fun.
01:16:22.240 When I said, you know, Barack Obama, he's putting Chairman Mao on the Christmas tree,
01:16:27.040 and that's not just a joke.
01:16:29.440 That's not just a, oh, I'm going to show them, ha ha, I don't really believe in Mao.
01:16:33.540 No, no, those forces were in and around him.
01:16:38.520 And this all started to take root.
01:16:41.560 These guys have been around forever.
01:16:43.140 But this all started to take root once you put a community organizer in the White House.
01:16:50.220 And, you know, if you were paying attention and you're a catastrophist, I admit, I admit,
01:16:54.840 There's a lot of things that I said, you know, could happen that, thank God, they didn't happen.
01:17:00.660 But the general storyline did.
01:17:04.300 And that's because if you just take people at their word, if you just look for the signs, especially when you listen to politicians who say, I'm not that, but they're hanging around all of the people.
01:17:18.120 My mom used to say, show me your friends, I'll show you your future.
01:17:21.600 That's, I guess, what I remembered that everybody else in politics forgot.
01:17:26.580 There's a lot of stuff that our parents talked to us, our grandparents talked to us about.
01:17:30.340 They taught us little phrases that are true.
01:17:35.440 They were around forever because they were true, and they're true today.
01:17:38.980 Show me your friends, and I'll show you your future.
01:17:42.020 If your friends are those who are advocating for violence for the Palestinians, are advocating for Hamas and Hezbollah, your friends are in Iran and Venezuela and Cuba, I know who you are because those are your friends.
01:18:00.080 That is your future.
01:18:02.000 And as much as you want to say, nah, I'm not for that.
01:18:07.080 Well, but all of your friends are.
01:18:09.500 And I know you say that in front of me.
01:18:13.160 You know, it's interesting.
01:18:14.200 It's like all these Islamists who all claim they're for.
01:18:21.620 Yeah, I'm absolutely for you.
01:18:23.520 Yes, thank you.
01:18:25.260 LGBTQ.
01:18:26.580 Oh, I'm with the two-spirited people myself.
01:18:29.220 Oh, I've been there fighting for you.
01:18:31.200 But they'll never say that in their mosque.
01:18:33.280 They'll never say that to their own people.
01:18:35.700 Why?
01:18:36.940 Because that's not what they really are.
01:18:38.640 they're using you they're using you and you're just dumb enough to believe it
01:18:46.220 it's just time to wake up that's all it is wake up they now are telling you you don't need me or
01:18:55.020 anybody else to translate you just have to go to their own websites you just read what they say
01:19:01.460 now my guess is these websites are going to start to change and they're going to start taking some
01:19:07.240 of these, because I think these are going to become very unpopular. They're popular now
01:19:11.060 in the primaries. Let's see how popular they are in Wisconsin when Hong is actually
01:19:17.780 running for governor against somebody else that has some common sense and is not this person.
01:19:25.360 Wisconsin is going to be tough because Wisconsin, as I will show you, has been socialist. It's had
01:19:30.640 the first socialist mayors in the country. It's been socialist for a very long time. It's not
01:19:35.380 Minnesota. It's actually Wisconsin that is the head of this snake and has
01:19:39.500 been for the beginning, since the beginning. And they were all Fabian socialists.
01:19:46.240 When I talk to you
01:19:47.400 next hour about the sewer socialist, what is a sewer socialist?
01:19:51.440 Comes from Wisconsin. It's really important that you understand that. Because that's what
01:19:55.480 Hong is. She's a sewer socialist. She says she is. But
01:19:59.280 you have to remember, who are her friends?
01:20:03.580 Who is she inviting up on stage?
01:20:06.540 Why would she be with Piker?
01:20:08.580 Why would she be with a guy who says all of these horrible things?
01:20:13.380 Is she using him?
01:20:16.020 Or is she a sewer socialist that is actually a deep progressive?
01:20:23.820 That's my guess.
01:20:24.920 That's my guess.
01:20:26.620 But when you have to guess on who a person is,
01:20:30.060 and you're guessing what their character is,
01:20:32.520 and they're standing with people who absolutely hate America?
01:20:39.940 I don't think I'm going to guess in that direction.
01:20:42.220 I don't think I'm going to go, well, you know what?
01:20:43.480 I'm going to just let this one slide.
01:20:44.700 I think I'm going to go with her anyway.
01:20:46.720 I think you have to take those people seriously
01:20:48.720 because we've seen what's happening in our country.
01:20:52.200 More in a minute, let me tell you about real estate agents like trust.com.
01:20:55.260 A rookie real estate agent asks, how much is the house?
01:20:58.760 A good real estate agent asks, why has this been on the market for 60 days?
01:21:03.700 A rookie says, how fast can we close?
01:21:05.580 A good agent says, what problems haven't we found yet?
01:21:10.400 That's the difference that experience makes.
01:21:12.880 The best agents don't know, you know, just the answers.
01:21:16.660 They know which questions everyone else forgets to ask.
01:21:20.640 That's why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
01:21:23.060 They, you know, I wanted to help you connect with people that could actually help you sell.
01:21:28.280 and had earned their reputations by helping families
01:21:30.660 make some of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
01:21:33.500 They know their local markets inside and out.
01:21:35.480 They know how to negotiate.
01:21:36.600 They know how to spot potential problems
01:21:38.240 before they become expensive ones.
01:21:40.060 And when you're buying or selling a home,
01:21:41.720 the question you don't know to ask
01:21:44.300 can cost you a lot more than the ones
01:21:47.660 that you do know to ask.
01:21:49.140 Please check out realestateagentsitrust.com.
01:21:51.420 We'll show you how you can buy or sell a home
01:21:53.300 even in this tough market with the right real estate agent.
01:21:56.340 The name says it all.
01:21:57.220 realestateagentsitrust.com. You're going to be thinking about that for a couple minutes, huh?
01:22:06.800 Glenn Beck will be right back.
01:22:27.220 A lot of great responses from the insiders.
01:22:34.920 We have to approach the members of the DSA as enemies of the republic.
01:22:38.940 They don't deserve participation in an election.
01:22:41.460 Will we allow the CCP to participate in the election?
01:22:45.920 Look, if you are an American citizen, you have a right to run and you have a right to vote.
01:22:51.480 our problem is not the people running and it is not the dsa honestly our problem is the press
01:22:59.960 our problem is they have allowed these people to um embed and to hide and now that they are
01:23:08.100 um you know announcing who they are they still are not covering it um and this is an anathema
01:23:14.820 to America. It can't be. If that's unfortunately what we decide, that's where we're going.
01:23:23.000 I don't know how these people get in. There's some of them. I don't know how you're going to get
01:23:27.340 into Congress and give them a security clearance. You can't. You can't.
01:23:34.640 Really, it is the press that is keeping all of it quiet. I'm going to talk about Hong,
01:23:40.340 Francesca Hong. She is running for the governor of Wisconsin. And
01:23:48.100 she's interesting. She is interesting. Schellenberger is doing a deep dive into her
01:23:58.060 mental illness disorder that she has. We'll talk a little bit about that
01:24:03.000 until we wait for his report. Coming up next.
01:24:10.840 The last few years have taught me something that I don't think enough people want to admit.
01:24:15.600 The system we count on every single day in this country isn't as sturdy as it looks.
01:24:20.660 All it takes is a little trouble in the wrong part of the world and shipping bottleneck,
01:24:24.200 a shortage of one key ingredient, major disruption overseas, and everything changes.
01:24:28.960 And it's getting harder and harder to find the things that you need.
01:24:31.520 And when it comes to medication, that's not an inconvenience.
01:24:34.480 That's personal.
01:24:35.680 That's why I like Jace Medical.
01:24:36.920 They give you a way to prepare now instead of panicking later.
01:24:40.340 The Jace case provides prescription antibiotics and emergency medications for a range of situations.
01:24:46.680 And Jace Daily can help you get your backup supply of all your regular prescriptions for up to 12 months.
01:24:52.060 To me, that's peace of mind.

01:25:39.780 the fusion of entertainment enlightenment and empowerment this is the glenn beck program
01:26:02.720 Glenn Beck is on
01:26:04.260 Hello America
01:26:07.500 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program from the Mountain West
01:26:10.860 I want to tell you what happened yesterday in Milwaukee
01:26:14.420 You have a couple of races that are going to be decided here
01:26:19.780 One in Michigan tomorrow
01:26:23.240 And then next week you have another big one happening
01:26:27.220 Both Democratic Socialists
01:26:29.520 You have one happening in Wisconsin.
01:26:34.440 Now, Wisconsin, Trump won Wisconsin in 2024.
01:26:41.100 Yes, he did.
01:26:42.200 Why?
01:26:43.960 Because, metaphorically speaking, Trump spoke to the people of Wisconsin a language that they understand.
01:26:52.160 He spoke about the sewers.
01:26:55.300 Metaphorically.
01:26:56.020 I'll explain here in 60 seconds on what's really going on.
01:27:00.300 First, let me tell you about Rough Greens.
01:27:01.820 If you have a dog, you've probably done this.
01:27:03.440 You fill up the water bowl, you know, they take two licks, and then they walk away.
01:27:07.440 You find yourself saying, you know, something you never thought.
01:27:10.020 Go drink some water.
01:27:11.040 Go drink some water.
01:27:12.300 Other times, man, they're just lapping that up, and you can't stop with the water.
01:27:17.400 Hydration is one of the most important parts of keeping your dog healthy.
01:27:20.460 It's the most important part of you being healthy, too.
01:27:23.200 Water helps support everything from energy levels to joints to overall well-being.
01:27:27.700 That's Rough H2O from Rough Greens.
01:27:29.980 It is so good for your dog.
01:27:31.420 It's an easy way to turn the water your dog is already drinking into something even better.
01:27:35.720 Rough H2O.
01:27:37.140 It's the stuff that my wife insists it puts in my stuff.
01:27:40.320 I mean, it's not dog.
01:27:41.280 Well, it might be dog stuff.
01:27:42.480 I'm not sure.
01:27:43.380 But she puts the electrolytes and the minerals and everything else,
01:27:46.780 all those beneficial ingredients and the nutrients that help support healthy hydration.
01:27:53.100 Well, now you have it for dogs, too.
01:27:55.000 Just add it to your water bowl for your dog, and they get more out of every lap.
01:28:00.760 Sometimes the best thing you can do for your dog are the simplest.
01:28:03.160 It doesn't get much simpler than making the water they're drinking work a little harder.
01:28:07.380 One bag equals seven daily packs or a week's supply.
01:28:10.320 Buy two bags.

01:28:23.180 Yesterday afternoon in
01:28:26.920 Milwaukee, not the capital of Wisconsin
01:28:29.100 but in Milwaukee
01:28:29.900 a high school gym, bleachers
01:28:33.000 pulled out, doors propped open for air
01:28:34.840 crowd that
01:28:36.340 was skewing young, the kind of crowd that campaigns
01:28:39.180 a campaign that
01:28:40.660 prays for this kind of crowd, nine days
01:28:43.060 out from primary. And it was very American. Until you started listening. The frontrunner for the
01:28:53.420 governor of Wisconsin brought two guests to that gym. One was a congresswoman from Minnesota.
01:28:59.400 The other was a man who broadcast about 3 million people from a studio in Los Angeles.
01:29:04.160 When he was introduced, some of the people of the room came to its feet and he told them that
01:29:08.680 Wisconsin is the heart of the historic American socialist movement.
01:29:12.520 That's true.
01:29:13.680 He posted it, too, on his way in.
01:29:15.940 The People's Republic of Wisconsin.
01:29:19.200 So he's right partly about history, maybe more right than he knows.
01:29:23.660 And once you know it, the whole afternoon can read differently.
01:29:26.600 So let me fill you in on that so you can read the room and see what's really going on.
01:29:31.720 First, who got the standing ovation?
01:29:34.340 It's the guy that in August of 2019 on a live stream reacting to a Republican congressman named Dan Crenshaw, the Navy SEAL who lost an eye in Afghanistan.
01:29:45.540 He went on a live stream and praised the enemy fighter who took the eye, called him brave.
01:29:51.460 And in a language that I'm not going to repeat on the radio, nor would I do it in my private life.
01:29:56.180 And then he went on to say that America deserved 9-11.
01:30:00.580 Then he said, dude, I'm just saying it.
01:30:02.620 Okay, dude.
01:30:04.660 Well, Twitch suspended him for a week.
01:30:07.720 He walked it back on his uncle's show, called it satire,
01:30:11.900 said he should have used better language,
01:30:13.740 and then he clarified that he hadn't said Americans deserved it.
01:30:17.360 He said America deserved it, as though that were the repair.
01:30:21.800 Well, years later, he's still working that same material,
01:30:24.640 joking about a sequel.
01:30:26.700 He has aired Houthi propaganda on his stream,
01:30:30.160 the Iranian-backed outfit in Yemen shooting at civilian ships met it with sympathy instead of
01:30:35.960 scrutiny. Democratic congressman from New York, Richie Torres, wrote to Twitch and Amazon calling
01:30:43.220 him the poster child for the anti-Semitism that broke out after October 7th. Democratic
01:30:48.400 congressman in Illinois, Brad Schneider, said in March that when Democrats put this man on their
01:30:53.300 stages, the party forfeits the credibility to condemn bigotry on the right. The Democrats said
01:30:59.480 that not me the democrats said that and then you have the woman standing next to him she's the one
01:31:05.280 who was you know who described the murder of 3 000 americans as some people did something
01:31:11.660 okay well yeah they flew planes into buildings but reporter asked the candidate whether campaigning
01:31:19.400 with him was a risk a woman who wants to be the governor hung in in uh wisconsin
01:31:26.820 said, it's not a risk.
01:31:32.080 What would be a risk is to not build
01:31:34.380 the broadest coalition possible.
01:31:37.680 You know, I talked about this earlier.
01:31:41.420 Show me your friends and I'll show you your future.
01:31:43.500 Something all of our moms said, most likely.
01:31:47.980 So you should remember it.
01:31:49.840 And we should apply it today.
01:31:52.280 Let's look at our friends.
01:31:54.140 Coalition is the oldest word in the story
01:31:56.140 and Wisconsin really invented it.
01:31:58.920 Let me tell you who Wisconsin really is.
01:32:02.280 In 1910, a Milwaukee-elected pattern maker,
01:32:07.560 they elected him mayor.
01:32:10.220 His name was Emil Seidel.
01:32:12.700 He was mayor, the first socialist mayor
01:32:15.100 to run in a major American city,
01:32:17.260 same city that sent the first socialist to Congress
01:32:19.940 that same year.
01:32:21.160 And they kept electing socialist mayors
01:32:23.240 on and off for the next 50 years.
01:32:25.360 But here's what they were known as.
01:32:29.620 Sewer socialists.
01:32:31.460 They campaigned on sewers and garbage collection and water and milk inspection and paving, municipal housekeeping, okay?
01:32:40.120 Out of New York, the party's leading intellectual lawyer named Morris Hillquit,
01:32:45.080 he was a man who ran for office in New York over and over and over again and kept losing.
01:32:48.920 And he looked at Milwaukee winning, and he coined this as an insult, and it stuck.
01:32:53.840 but not as an insult.
01:32:55.500 They're nothing but sewer socialists.
01:32:57.600 You're not revolutionaries.
01:32:59.080 You're plumbers.
01:33:01.340 Milwaukee took that insult
01:33:02.720 and wore it like a jacket.
01:33:05.320 But Seidel, years later,
01:33:07.420 that's the mayor in Wisconsin
01:33:11.540 that kept winning.
01:33:13.580 He was writing a memoir.
01:33:15.360 It never got published.
01:33:17.180 I wonder why.
01:33:19.140 In it, he left a few lines
01:33:21.340 worth carrying to you today.
01:33:23.840 He said they wanted more than sewers.
01:33:26.480 Oh, so very much more than sewers.
01:33:31.960 Who are the they?
01:33:33.480 The socialist.
01:33:34.500 He.
01:33:35.020 He wanted more than sewers.
01:33:36.920 Oh, so very much more than sewers.
01:33:39.460 But that's the arrangement.
01:33:40.940 And it's held for 116 years.
01:33:44.000 The sewer wing wins the elections.
01:33:46.300 How did Donald Trump win in such a socialist place?
01:33:49.840 Well, there's lots of reasons.
01:33:50.820 but one is he could appeal to the sewer socialists
01:33:54.600 because he was effectively talking about the sewers.
01:33:57.200 He was talking about jobs.
01:33:58.360 He was talking about the price of gas.
01:34:00.160 He was talking about all those things.
01:34:02.420 And that's a sewer socialist.
01:34:04.180 That's language sewer socialists listen to.
01:34:06.620 Somebody who's going to go in and fix things.
01:34:09.460 The platform wing writes down what the movement is actually for.
01:34:14.540 The plumber knocks on your door.
01:34:16.600 The theorist keeps the plan.
01:34:19.580 And neither one of them is actually lying, exactly.
01:34:23.340 They've just divided the labor.
01:34:25.640 One is the front man.
01:34:27.540 The other is behind the scenes.
01:34:29.920 Hillquit never came to Milwaukee.
01:34:31.700 He sneered at it from 1,000 miles away.
01:34:34.200 But Sunday, the sneer flew in, took a microphone,
01:34:38.300 and a high school gymnasium in the suburbs of Milwaukee
01:34:41.440 and got a standing ovation.
01:34:43.780 And he didn't talk about sewers.
01:34:46.360 He said they were going to run up the numbers on August 11th and carry that into victory in November
01:34:50.940 until there would never be another Republican winning in Wisconsin ever again.
01:34:57.440 And then he said, it's not me, it's all of us.
01:35:01.060 Now, I want you to watch the division of labor in this campaign because it's textbook.
01:35:07.840 The ads and on the stump, all they're talking about is cost of living, child care, health care, wages.
01:35:14.400 She's a chef.
01:35:15.600 She washed dishes.
01:35:16.760 She is a single mom who couldn't find a place she could afford.
01:35:20.360 That's the sewer socialist.
01:35:22.340 And I don't say that with a sneer.
01:35:24.040 Those are real things in real lives.
01:35:25.680 And if my own party had better answers on the price of a house and a week of groceries,
01:35:30.260 you know, she'd be 20 points behind instead of 20 points ahead.
01:35:34.380 Why?
01:35:36.480 Because in June, she sat in that Los Angeles studio with Piker for 90 minutes.
01:35:43.100 And in a rapid-fire round, she said yes to state-run grocery stores, yes to cracking down on tech, yes to freeing Palestine, yes to a statue of Scott Walker built for the express purpose of letting people tear it down.
01:36:00.840 That's all more than sewers.
01:36:02.360 The last one was a joke, I think.
01:36:04.800 But that's more than sewers.
01:36:05.900 what you have to understand when when they say a broad coalition you have to understand a coalition
01:36:13.060 is not a guest list it's a contract you don't get somebody else's crowd for free you get it by
01:36:20.800 owing somebody something and when the man on that stage when you know what he was talking about
01:36:29.600 wasn't a budget line or a bill number.
01:36:33.580 He asked for the win itself.
01:36:37.240 And what does he believe?
01:36:40.140 You don't have to guess what the rest of the coalition wants
01:36:43.260 because they publish it.
01:36:45.160 We've been talking last hour,
01:36:46.520 the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America
01:36:48.500 sat on Fox a week ago,
01:36:49.940 went down the list on national television,
01:36:51.860 abolished the Senate, yes.
01:36:54.060 Replace the presidency, yes.
01:36:55.680 Replace the Supreme Court, yes.
01:36:57.260 Abolish ICE, yes.
01:36:58.580 Open the borders, yes.
01:36:59.700 Defund the Pentagon.
01:37:00.700 Yes.
01:37:01.620 Open and empty the prisons.
01:37:03.760 Yes.
01:37:05.180 Put the large corporations under public ownership.
01:37:07.780 Yes.
01:37:08.760 Nobody had to leak that.
01:37:09.840 Nobody hacked anything.
01:37:11.540 She said it out loud on a Sunday show.
01:37:13.420 And the plumber on your porch is still talking about your groceries bill.
01:37:19.760 That is the way socialist work.
01:37:27.300 Sewer socialists.
01:37:30.480 It's not a smear.
01:37:32.140 It's a tactic.
01:37:34.700 Now, if you're on my side on any of this, we're nine days away.
01:37:38.940 Don't spend nine days away celebrating.
01:37:41.120 The same polling that has her running away with the primary has November inside the margin in a state that decides presidencies by 20,000 votes.
01:37:50.980 A candidate you find easy to mock is not the same candidate or not the same thing as a candidate that's easy to beat.
01:37:57.620 She might be, but this is Wisconsin.
01:38:01.440 Ask anybody who's been through a Wisconsin November.
01:38:08.160 Now, why does any of this matter to a man today in Twin Falls
01:38:12.020 or a woman in Macon who's never cast a vote in Wisconsin?
01:38:22.240 Because we all have to learn this.
01:38:24.140 Sewer talk is your life.
01:38:25.840 It's your street, it's your water, it's your kid's school, the number at the bottom of your receipt.
01:38:32.220 Platform talk is about categories of people.
01:38:35.600 Who owns, who takes, who is owed, who has to be broken so the arithmetic works.
01:38:41.920 One of those is government.
01:38:44.840 The other one, every single time, every time it has been tried, ends up needing somebody to blame.
01:38:51.220 if somebody is just talking about the sewers that probably is a good thing
01:38:57.520 but you must then see who's standing around them the question to ask a candidate is not who she
01:39:05.780 stood next to on any given sunday because anybody can dodge that the question is mayor seidel's
01:39:13.920 question but instead of sitting there in a book for 114 years it's asked loud in public on record
01:39:20.440 before the ballots are counted or even cast.
01:39:23.320 When you do have power,
01:39:26.200 what is the much more than sewers to you?
01:39:32.520 And believe me, they'll tell you.
01:39:34.440 They'll tell you.
01:39:35.300 They always have.
01:39:35.940 They're telling you by who they stand around.
01:39:38.960 She's telling you by taking the Democratic Socialists of America endorsement
01:39:43.600 and running as a Democratic Socialist.
01:39:47.280 They'll tell you because they've written it down.
01:39:51.080 One of them wrote it down and left it in a drawer for 100 years.
01:39:54.380 But the other ones have written it down.
01:39:57.180 They're in their own party.
01:39:58.840 And they're talking about it openly.
01:40:00.360 They're proud of it.
01:40:01.420 See what they wrote down at dsausa.org.
01:40:05.860 And share that with your friends.
01:40:08.480 dsausa.org.
01:40:10.340 Back in a minute.
01:40:13.220 Ever notice how people brag about not sleeping?
01:40:15.540 I only got four hours last night.
01:40:17.660 Yeah, I only got three.
01:40:19.120 Well, congratulations. I guess you win.
01:40:22.540 Weariness has become the strange badge of honor.
01:40:25.200 Somehow we've decided that if you're exhausted all the time,
01:40:27.580 it must mean you're doing something right in the world.
01:40:30.220 I'm not sure that's true.
01:40:32.780 I think it might just mean we're all very tired.
01:40:36.000 The thing is, your body doesn't care how impressive your calendar looks.
01:40:39.380 It still needs real, restful sleep.
01:40:41.620 And when you don't get it, everything else starts to suffer.
01:40:44.020 Your patience, your focus, your mood,
01:40:45.580 even the little problems start feeling a lot bigger than they really are.
01:40:49.120 I'm a fan of Z-Factor. It's from the same people who created Relief Factor, and it's designed to
01:40:53.520 help people get the kind of deep, restorative sleep that your body's been asking for all along.

01:41:19.120 so you know what's going around on the internet and i want to be really careful on this
01:41:30.920 because this doesn't disqualify you at all from anything it just means you've had a problem
01:41:36.560 and when you're in public service we have a right to know how is that problem doing
01:41:41.480 and not as an accusation but just as a serious question francesca hong has been diagnosed with
01:41:48.860 bipolar disease. She's had a mental breakdown. She was placed in psychiatric hospitalization.
01:41:55.220 She did self-harm by cutting and experienced a lithium overdose.
01:42:02.200 And this is all coming from an interview she did in 2023, so she doesn't hide from it.
01:42:06.800 Lithium overdose sounds to me like this was a while ago because do they still use lithium very
01:42:13.020 often? I mean, maybe they do. I don't know. Now, Schellenberger is looking into this and not
01:42:20.940 because she's been in the hospital with mental illness. Mental illness is very, very common.
01:42:27.040 Have you watched the news? Have you talked to people on the streets? It's very common.
01:42:33.120 Bipolar disorder is a serious mental illness, but if it's being properly treated, what's the
01:42:40.220 problem with that. I mean, so the question really is, are you on medication? What medication? Are
01:42:47.440 you still taking that medication every day? How are things progressing? Great. That's fine.
01:42:55.200 I think it's not disqualifying. She needs to qualify herself. She needs to say, look, I have
01:43:02.740 this and it's a disorder and it can be very dangerous, but not if I'm on my medication.
01:43:09.320 and I've been on my medication. I've been fine for X number of years. You know, I'm an alcoholic.
01:43:15.200 I've had serious bouts of depression, but I know it. I know exactly what it is. I know when to have
01:43:22.460 it treated if I need it to be treated. I know what the warning signs are. I haven't had a serious
01:43:28.120 bout of any of that for 20 years. I haven't had a problem with my drinking for 30 years. Okay.
01:43:35.780 So I'm an alcoholic.
01:43:37.020 Yeah.
01:43:38.160 I guess you tie me down and pour whiskey down my throat.
01:43:41.600 But I've had many, many very stressful days, and I haven't, I've never broken.
01:43:49.540 Never have I had a relapse.
01:43:51.400 That doesn't mean I won't.
01:43:52.760 It just means I haven't.
01:43:53.680 I have a pretty good record of it.
01:43:55.140 Same with her.
01:43:56.040 There's nothing wrong with that.
01:43:58.460 Don't allow mental illness.
01:44:01.900 This bothered me when I saw this.
01:44:03.460 You know, she has mental illness.
01:44:06.620 Yeah.
01:44:07.400 Yeah, dude, so have a lot of people.
01:44:09.720 You know, she's cut herself.
01:44:11.280 Yeah, so have a lot of our daughters.
01:44:13.520 They've cut themselves too.
01:44:16.160 So this doesn't disqualify, but it does require us to be able to have an honest and fair discussion about it.
01:44:24.960 With her, she should ask, and she should be asked, and she should answer it fully once.
01:44:29.820 And we have the answer.
01:44:31.400 What else are you going to do?
01:44:32.160 You disagree with that, Ricky, or not?
01:44:34.580 Jason, love to have your thoughts on this too.
01:44:37.200 No, absolutely not.
01:44:38.300 There are several very successful people in media
01:44:41.400 who have struggled with bipolar disorder
01:44:43.800 and successfully treated it as well.
01:44:46.380 I think you're perfectly qualified to be a radio host
01:44:49.860 living with alcoholism and bouts of depression,
01:44:52.620 but I would not nominate you for politics.
01:44:57.460 Well, that's not because of my alcoholism.
01:44:59.800 And that's just because I would make a very bad politician.
01:45:03.300 I would not be good.
01:45:04.600 We'd run out of missiles.
01:45:05.520 And that has nothing to do with mental disorder.
01:45:07.920 That has everything with me just going, I've had it with them.
01:45:11.740 Oh, we're going to negotiate.
01:45:13.020 We're not going to negotiate.
01:45:13.860 We're going to negotiate.
01:45:14.620 We're not going to negotiate.
01:45:15.660 And we're talking France.
01:45:17.080 Missile, missile, missile, missile, missile.
01:45:18.720 It would be bad.
01:45:20.060 I do wonder if her mental disorder has influenced her politics.
01:45:24.520 I think that's also a question worth asking.
01:45:29.800 no i'm just thinking i think that is a fair question i don't know if she's going to give
01:45:39.200 you you know i don't know if she's going to give you i mean i guess if you asked if my alcoholism
01:45:47.200 has influenced my politics yeah it has it's made me more conservative it's made me believe in the
01:45:53.720 individual more uh so yeah and that's not a slam i mean just is what it is and i guess if she could
01:46:02.300 say yeah it did because i realized more people needed help on the streets and uh you know because
01:46:08.640 i experienced it i want to make sure that we have the best health care so i i'll bet you her answer
01:46:12.940 would be yes on that and it could be a very honest answer um anyway all right more in just a second i
01:46:20.900 want to show you the helping hand, the junior partner, if you will, and what that means in
01:46:27.580 politics in just a minute. Stand by. Everybody wants to change the world. Everybody. Almost
01:46:49.460 Nobody wants to change their password.
01:46:51.380 I get a message, you got to change your password.
01:46:53.340 Why?
01:46:55.460 Try to change it to exactly what I have.
01:46:57.260 Can't use that one.
01:46:58.220 Why?
01:46:59.500 Anyway, it's kind of human nature, I think.
01:47:01.700 You know, we dream about big things.
01:47:03.020 We argue about big things.
01:47:04.360 But, you know, life isn't changed by big things.
01:47:07.040 It's changed by a thousand small decisions that people actually follow through on.
01:47:11.760 That's why I like Patriot Mobile.
01:47:13.280 Switching your cell phone service provider, it's not going to make tomorrow's headlines.
01:47:16.880 But it is one of those small decisions that is easy to make and has an impact every single month.
01:47:22.120 One on your wallet, but also on our culture.
01:47:25.140 We have to change our culture.
01:47:27.180 And that's not going to happen in one big fell swoop.
01:47:28.960 It's going to change exactly the way it changed last time.
01:47:31.740 Except we weren't paying attention, and that's what changed our culture.
01:47:35.460 Now paying attention will change it back to a better culture.

01:48:14.600 I want to kind of stay where we were here for a second because the insiders, I'm reading
01:48:36.440 some of their messages and a lot of them say that mental illness is a disqualifier for
01:48:43.680 you to serve in uh you know for you to serve in in as a governor because i told you that hong and
01:48:53.540 this i think and ricky just verified this happened when she was 18 years old and the key there was
01:49:00.000 cutting i think um you know when she was 18 years old she was diagnosed as bipolar um she had it
01:49:07.060 treated she was cutting and it was it was bad and all indications are is that she got through that
01:49:14.100 and you know is on her medications I don't know I think this is something that you should ask
01:49:19.200 because bipolar is something that is is very very dangerous I mean Ricky you speak about whatever you
01:49:25.760 you know care to share but you have significant experience with bipolar disease yes not me
01:49:34.080 personally, let me clarify, but my brother, who's no longer with us, probably a victim of bipolar
01:49:40.020 disease and not letting it be treated. So, and I think there's many Americans out there who can
01:49:45.680 identify with my story, but I know firsthand that it's not something that you can take lightly and
01:49:50.980 it is extremely difficult to manage. People who are on lithium hate being on lithium and that's
01:49:56.700 why you see so many people um spiraling out of control with life decisions and you know many
01:50:05.660 people do not resort to violence but others that do suffer from this can and it should be very
01:50:11.760 carefully managed and monitored yeah and depending on how bad it is i mean jason you just said and
01:50:18.880 many of the insiders are echoing you you would not vote for somebody who's bipolar and even if
01:50:24.840 it was somebody you know i know ricky was joking at least i think that she wouldn't vote for me
01:50:30.300 because i'm an alcoholic and i've had bouts of depression etc etc and really serious bouts of
01:50:35.120 depression um when i was younger and um uh you know but as long as it's under control
01:50:42.940 why would that disqualify somebody i well i'm personally i just i i guess that's up to you
01:50:51.820 know various voters but personally i am not sure because if you have to take medication to control
01:50:58.080 something like that your mental state i don't know like what happens when you forget to take
01:51:02.840 that medication or who knows what or are you more prone to do more erratic things i i'm just i'm just
01:51:10.140 not i'm not risking that i'm gonna go with the candidate that doesn't have the issue personally
01:51:16.180 But the issue, I guess, really big and front and center right now is the full disclosure on it right now.
01:51:22.880 So, personally, I would say the best way to do that now for her and her campaign would be to come right out and discuss all those things.
01:51:30.660 Is it an issue if you miss your medication?
01:51:34.740 When was the last time you had an episode?
01:51:36.580 All those things need to be known.
01:51:39.060 Yeah, I think that needs to be known.
01:51:41.120 When's the last time you had an episode?
01:51:42.940 How under control is it?
01:51:44.300 How long have you been on the medication?
01:51:45.340 Do you miss days, et cetera, et cetera?
01:51:47.420 Ricky?
01:51:48.460 Yeah, I was going to ask you, Glenn, have we been here before in presidential history?
01:51:52.740 I know that there's a few.
01:51:54.300 I can't remember their names exactly.
01:51:55.520 Perhaps Lincoln.
01:51:56.320 I think JFK suffered from depression.
01:51:59.980 Lincoln was really bad.
01:52:01.180 I can't remember if they disclosed it or not.
01:52:04.360 Nixon was a raging alcoholic, from what I understand, in office.
01:52:09.400 Raging alcoholic.
01:52:10.280 um so i mean we've had bad we've had we've had bad and we've had you know people with
01:52:16.700 mental disorders as well i was just thinking as i was still listening to jason that i'm not sure
01:52:22.020 that the problem is um the politician you know if they have it under control um you know everybody
01:52:32.560 on my staff you i mean i know because you guys have said things before glenn you getting your
01:52:38.340 sleep? Are you getting this? You care about my health, you know, and you also care about the
01:52:42.660 company. And so you're, you know, you're always, you're always on me. Hey, can you get some more
01:52:47.600 sleep? You need to stop doing so much, blah, blah, blah. And you're doing it because you care about
01:52:53.760 me as a person, but also you care about the company. That is the problem I think we have now.
01:53:00.140 How many people would be around a politician that because they won and we can't lose them,
01:53:06.220 They're too important because what would happen if they are gone?
01:53:10.460 How many of the people around them could see them go into real problems and then cover it and not say anything and try to work around it?
01:53:20.300 That, I think, is the problem, is that we have no character anymore.
01:53:24.720 Part of life is that we have mental illness, we have physical illness.
01:53:30.820 I think they're the same thing.
01:53:32.180 What happens if you don't take your medication?
01:53:33.740 There are people who have serious problems if they don't take their medication.
01:53:37.700 You know, somebody who has a bad seizure disorder, they don't take their medication.
01:53:42.040 They're going to start having seizures all the time.
01:53:43.820 You want a president that's having a seizure, something could happen?
01:53:46.960 No.
01:53:47.900 But if you're on your medication and it's fine and it's stable, how about an airplane pilot?
01:53:53.280 You want an airplane pilot with bad seizures?
01:53:57.200 Is it under control with medication?
01:53:59.520 How's he doing with his medication?
01:54:01.360 As long as he's taking his medication, we're okay.
01:54:05.420 I mean, that's the problem.
01:54:07.280 The problem is in an airplane, the co-pilot is there and will take over.
01:54:12.440 And he's right there and he will take over.
01:54:15.400 And if the co-pilot starts to see something that is like, hey, dude, you don't seem yourself lately.
01:54:21.140 Are you taking your seizure medication?
01:54:23.800 Because everyone's life is at stake, he will tell the company.
01:54:28.700 He will tell authorities in the company, this guy is, there's something wrong with him, okay?
01:54:33.140 Because he knows it's a danger.
01:54:34.900 In our country now, the way it's set up, Joe Biden was a danger to our republic, a grave danger to our republic.
01:54:45.960 If something big would have happened and he had to make the decision, do you trust that he could have made the right decision?
01:54:54.300 I don't.
01:54:55.780 But everybody played politics with it.
01:54:57.640 So it's not the disorder. It's the disorder of our character, I think, that is the bigger problem.
01:55:07.080 Thoughts on that one? Right? Wrong? Jason?
01:55:10.260 No, yeah, I completely agree. And I was just about to say Joe Biden right when you brought him up right then.
01:55:16.440 I mean, that's one of the big problems right now in politics, especially when your side has picked the candidate you think is going to win.
01:55:23.300 they disclosure becomes something that just gets ignored every single time now so if there is an
01:55:30.820 issue i think a lot of voters just don't don't trust it especially after biden how many of them
01:55:35.320 after all these disclosures now we heard about well like oh yeah everyone knew everyone was
01:55:40.560 concerned they all covered it up they all covered it up the media the cabinet everyone no one was
01:55:47.260 going to say that oh yeah joe biden is a danger to the country don't worry because we're going to
01:55:51.100 be running the country for you. I mean, I can only imagine, I mean, as we get more and more
01:55:55.820 of these disclosures of, you know, the non-disclosure of whether it be mental state,
01:56:00.920 whether it be illness, whatever, they're just like, they're in win now mode. They're going to
01:56:04.680 be like, ah, screw it. We're just going to do what we want. We're going to put this person in
01:56:07.620 because we think we can win. I mean, yeah. It's amazing to me because I look at Donald Trump
01:56:17.100 and you've seen some physical changes in donald trump in the last year or so he's gained a little
01:56:23.900 weight um and he looks tired where i haven't seen him look tired before and i was thinking about
01:56:29.800 this the other day go back in time look at obama the first term no white hair he's fine to the end
01:56:37.980 he looks different you can see he aged same thing with ron reagan you could see his age
01:56:44.040 You don't really see the aging on Donald Trump.
01:56:47.320 I see the effects that it has taken on him.
01:56:51.080 He just, he looks tired.
01:56:53.640 But think, he's not had eight years.
01:56:56.880 He's now approaching 10 because he had four years of just hell,
01:57:01.960 then four years out of the office, but it was just as bad, if not worse.
01:57:07.020 And now he's doing it again.
01:57:08.340 He's going to have 12 years.
01:57:09.780 and if i honestly if i saw him and i thought oof he is not the same man we elected he is
01:57:18.080 uh he is really not as sharp as he used to be i'd say something because you want the president
01:57:26.520 of the united states the the guy who the guy who is in charge of the button you want our allies to
01:57:33.100 know what you might know do you know how how they'll take advantage of us that is the most
01:57:39.380 dangerous thing if I thought he was slipping at all I would say something you you have a
01:57:44.540 responsibility but do people feel that way anymore I don't know the media is the problem Ricky yeah
01:57:52.900 I was just gonna say I'm old enough to remember when the media and other politicians have tried
01:57:56.760 to invoke the 25th amendment on Trump for less evidence than we have on Ms. Hong or what they
01:58:02.900 perceived to be mental illness will they hold themselves accountable to their previous views on
01:58:09.000 how we should treat politicians who they believe are well wait wait but wait they're saying that
01:58:15.080 he is mentally unwell they're saying he is actively mentally unwell and nobody has made
01:58:20.720 that charge they're just bringing up that you know when she was 18 she had these problems
01:58:25.080 that's different than he's currently mentally ill i mean because if i saw that in president
01:58:31.460 Trump or any president. I'd say the same thing. Uh, guys, I think there's a problem here. He's
01:58:35.600 off his medication and, uh, it needs to be announced to the people. And it, this needs to
01:58:41.380 be over. The president needs to hand the reins over to the vice president, at least until he
01:58:45.820 gets better. I mean, that's what you would do. Any normal person should do that, but I don't
01:58:50.840 think we're talking normalcy anymore. Um, all right. I want to, I want to play something that
01:58:55.700 A lot of people are talking about, when we come back, possibly the worst national anthem ever.
01:59:05.880 And that's saying something.
01:59:06.920 And this time, it was not intentional.
01:59:09.120 It was just not good.
01:59:13.060 And we'll explain here in just a second.
01:59:15.140 First, let me tell you about the American financing.
01:59:19.060 You know what the bank is hoping you never do?
01:59:21.940 They're hoping you're bad at math, that you'll never do math.
01:59:24.160 They're happy if you just make mortgage payments every month and never ask yourself a single
01:59:27.680 question like, wait, how much of this payment is actually going toward the loan?
01:59:31.860 How come I'm paying 20%, 25% interest on my credit cards?
01:59:35.380 Is there another option here, better option?
01:59:39.180 Could you be saving me money every single month without changing my mortgage?
01:59:44.640 Yeah.
01:59:45.400 Most people don't ask those questions because mortgages aren't exactly dinner table conversation.
01:59:50.820 And most people think you get your mortgage and you leave it alone.
01:59:53.660 Well, that's not always true.
01:59:56.340 American Financing can help you.
01:59:57.800 They will take the time to look at your situation, answer those questions, help you understand what options are available.
02:00:03.580 If there is a way to lower your monthly payment or put you on a better home equity to be able to use that home equity and help pay down all of the things that are just rocket high interest rates, they'll do it.
02:00:17.640 They'll show you how to do it.
02:00:18.920 There's no upfront fees.
02:00:20.200 You can find out what you qualified for.
02:00:21.740 They're salary-based consultants.
02:00:23.120 they're helping the average person in this audience that does business with American
02:00:26.880 Financing. They're saving about $830 every single month. 800-906-2440. 800-906-2440.

02:00:53.120 Welcome to the program.
02:01:18.360 I have to tell you, all the women on my staff, and I have quite a few women on my staff,
02:01:25.000 they all want me to talk about Sophie Cunningham.
02:01:28.160 And strangely, so does Jason, but for entirely different reasons.
02:01:32.860 But, you know, I don't know if you guys know this, Ricky, but I am not good at sports.
02:01:41.980 I know nothing about sports.
02:01:43.900 So, Sophie Cunningham.
02:01:45.340 It's not really a real sport.
02:01:46.780 It's not really sports.
02:01:48.620 It's heroic.
02:01:50.180 Okay.
02:01:50.640 All right.
02:01:51.300 So I might talk about that on tomorrow's program,
02:01:54.380 but I've got to do a lot more research other than, you know,
02:01:58.100 what Ricky just said.
02:01:59.500 I need to understand that.
02:02:01.020 And I'm going to knock it up a level other than she's hot.
02:02:05.160 Let's do an interview with her, Jason.
02:02:08.120 I think that's fine to go there.
02:02:09.980 I mean, what's going on?
02:02:12.340 I appreciate it.
02:02:13.240 um all right so the the women's who knew they had a women's baseball league i thought that was a
02:02:23.460 movie with tom hanks um but uh there's a women's baseball league the pro baseball league opening
02:02:30.140 day uh game on saturday and martha reeves and i didn't listen to this because i saw it was really
02:02:37.120 bad i haven't heard it yet i saw it was really bad everybody's talking about it they listened
02:02:40.900 to it because i thought it was martha reeves i was going to listen to it if if they were making
02:02:44.580 fun of and but i thought martha reeves is a legend how bad can it be and that's when everybody
02:02:51.780 on my staff said oh worse than you can possibly imagine so let me be the judge of that here's
02:02:57.600 martha reeves opening day saturday for the women's baseball league oh say can you see
02:03:07.620 By the dawn's early light
02:03:11.960 What so proudly we hailed
02:03:16.640 At the twilight's last gleaming
02:03:21.360 Whose broad stripes and bright stars
02:03:26.060 Through the perilous fight
02:03:30.240 O'er the ramparts we watched
02:03:34.700 Were so gallantly streaming
02:03:39.060 And the rocket's red glare
02:03:43.920 The bombs bursting in air
02:03:47.680 Gave proof through the night
02:03:51.900 That our flag was still there
02:03:57.480 Oh, say does that star-spangled
02:04:02.940 All right, I don't know why she had to sing it on a paint shaker.

02:04:46.720 lost it and i'm like and nobody in my family or nobody in my nobody in my life has said glenn
