00:00:43.100 Did you see what Sweden is doing, Stu, with the storage of food?
00:00:49.220 Did not.
00:00:50.980 Yeah, they decided that they were going to start for the next, I think, five years, start storing grain.
00:00:58.480 Because they think that there's a real problem and the Swedish people will need grain to be able to survive.
00:01:06.640 So, that's good.

00:02:09.780 It's a new day, a time to raise.
00:02:18.460 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:27.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:29.980 Well, hello, America.
00:02:33.760 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:35.340 We have a lot to talk about.
00:02:37.200 We're going to start with the Surgeon General issuing a new warning about the public health.
00:02:43.980 It is time we look at not only climate change, but also we look at gun control as public health.
00:02:55.380 Public health.
00:02:56.340 When the government says it's a public health concern, what they mean is it's a lack of control of the public.
00:03:06.640 And they're going to institute some things that will control the public.
00:03:10.340 That's what public health means when it's coming from these people.
00:03:14.380 We'll talk about that coming up in just a second.
00:03:16.540 First, Bill wrote in with an interesting story about his experience with Relief Factory.
00:03:20.980 He says, for quite a while now, Bill used a walker or a cane.
00:03:24.900 He said he used it everywhere he went because he had such pain in his knees, he could barely walk.
00:03:32.480 The good news is, call it good news, he had a knee replacement surgery all scheduled and he was ready to go in.
00:03:39.880 But then one day, after almost three weeks of trying something called Relief Factor,
00:03:44.140 Bill walked into the surgeon's office without a walker, without a cane.
00:03:48.100 By the end of the consultation, the surgeon agreed, okay, we're going to cancel the operation.
00:03:53.020 I'll be here if you need me.
00:03:54.240 Call me if you need me.
00:03:55.880 So far, he hasn't needed the surgeon.
00:03:58.360 Bill got his life back with Relief Factor.
00:04:01.140 If you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement, might help you feel and live better.
00:04:07.680 Join the over a million people who've turned to Relief Factor, just like Bill.
00:04:13.520 I want you to do me a favor and go to relieffactor.com.
00:04:17.360 relieffactor.com.
00:04:19.300 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:20.720 1-800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:22.200 You'll save on your first order.
00:04:23.780 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:25.560 relieffactor.com.
00:04:27.480 All right, we're going to talk about the coming debate, which happens tomorrow.
00:04:33.520 I'm going to give my quick little dissertation on what I think Donald Trump should do to win tomorrow night
00:04:43.340 and to change the game even more than he already has.
00:04:47.400 That's coming up in about an hour.
00:04:48.820 We're going to talk about the WikiLeaks deal.
00:04:50.700 We have a theory.
00:04:52.120 We have a theory.
00:04:54.960 Let's see if it plays through.
00:04:56.640 We have our staff looking into things.
00:04:59.660 They've been looking into it yesterday and all day and all night,
00:05:03.020 and now they're just trying to button up a few things.
00:05:07.040 So far, I can only present it as a theory.
00:05:09.220 Maybe in an hour we'll be able to show you some facts on that.
00:05:12.240 But we'll get that to you here in just a minute.
00:05:15.000 Also, we're going to talk about the elections that happened yesterday.
00:05:23.340 And let's start with the Surgeon General.
00:05:26.640 The Surgeon General has come out and declared climate change a public health emergency.
00:05:35.560 He has also claimed that racism is a public health emergency.
00:05:41.060 Now, when you have a public health emergency, you know, i.e. COVID, the government can claim all kinds of powers.
00:05:50.060 If it's a public health emergency, they're using this language very, very carefully.
00:05:57.680 Now, here's what he said yesterday.
00:06:01.500 Cut for Surgeon General announces firearm violence being a public health emergency.
00:06:08.380 Today, for the first time in the history of our office, I am issuing a Surgeon General's advisory on firearm violence.
00:06:15.560 It outlines the urgent threat firearm violence poses to the health and well-being of our country.
00:06:21.840 As a doctor, I've seen the consequences of firearm violence up close in the lives of the patients I've cared for over the years.
00:06:29.420 These are moms and dads, sons and daughters, all of whom were robbed of their physical and mental health by senseless acts of violence.
00:06:37.620 Unfortunately, the problem has continued to grow.
00:06:41.060 The Surgeon General's advisory lays out the approach we can take to address firearm violence as the public health crisis that it is.
00:06:48.820 This includes implementing community violence prevention programs and firearm risk reduction strategies,
00:06:55.400 improving access to mental health care for those exposed to or at risk for firearm violence,
00:07:01.020 and expanding research funding to inform and evaluate our prevention strategies.
00:07:06.080 Hang on just a second.
00:07:07.180 Hold on.
00:07:09.240 Did he just say that it would expand mental health access for those who have created gun violence or who had participated in it or had access to guns?
00:07:27.080 It's interesting.
00:07:28.840 Anyway, so there's Dr. Murthy coming on, and he says,
00:07:33.780 I just want people to walk, you know, through their neighborhoods and feel safe.
00:07:38.480 Yeah, so do I.
00:07:39.900 So do I.
00:07:41.220 What's changed?
00:07:42.580 What's changed?
00:07:43.240 Why has it gotten so dangerous to walk through our neighborhoods?
00:07:47.120 There's some other things that are going on that I would call a crisis,
00:07:49.840 but he doesn't want to talk about that.
00:07:52.620 He wants to talk about the evil gun and those who want guns.
00:07:57.260 And it's a public health crisis.
00:08:00.440 Now, let me give you another story before I get into the main point here.
00:08:04.420 Delaware, the state legislators yesterday sent doctor-assisted suicide bill to the governor to sign.
00:08:12.160 This would be the 11th state to approve doctor-assisted suicide.
00:08:17.740 Okay, let's look at those 11 states.
00:08:21.500 What 11 states has doctor-assisted suicide?
00:08:26.280 California, Colorado, Oregon, Vermont, New Mexico, Maine, New Jersey, Hawaii, Washington, and Washington, D.C.
00:08:38.700 Stu, I'm noticing a pattern here, and I don't know exactly what it is.
00:08:41.900 What do those 11 states have in common?
00:08:45.060 Great vacation locations?
00:08:46.340 No, no, no, no, no.
00:08:49.180 I wouldn't put New Jersey in the same category as Hawaii.
00:08:51.900 Really?
00:08:52.840 Yeah, yeah.
00:08:54.960 They're all the most progressive states we have in the Union.
00:09:00.340 Okay?
00:09:01.140 So, they're the same ones that are fighting for the death of babies.
00:09:06.300 They are the same ones that are now going to the opposite end and saying also the death of old people or anybody sick that wants to die.
00:09:15.580 Okay.
00:09:16.300 Okay.
00:09:16.660 All right.
00:09:18.240 Now, let me tie these two stories together.
00:09:21.100 May I?
00:09:21.620 Have you ever heard anyone tell the American people that this is science and those that don't understand it are going to be swept aside in history as those being on the wrong side of history?
00:09:42.220 Have you heard anyone saying, well, to kids, you know, you understand things that your parents don't understand because, well, they don't get it.
00:09:53.940 It's a new generation, right?
00:09:56.560 Have you ever heard anyone saying, if you don't join us, you're against us, right?
00:10:07.860 Okay.
00:10:10.580 Let me read something to the doctors in medical profession from Dr. Wagner.
00:10:22.480 Colleagues, sweep aside all those who do not wish to understand the sign of the times.
00:10:29.520 Over the course of these weeks, it has been with emotion and gratitude that we have observed the German national awareness of itself and the value of its blood.
00:10:40.820 In every hamlet, every walk of life, in all the professions, we are witnessing the awakening of the people and rejection of mistakes coming from liberal and formal and foreign elements.
00:10:52.380 When they say liberal, by the way, they mean classical liberalism.
00:10:55.820 They mean that you as an individual matter, not the kind of liberalism that's now being preached.
00:11:04.400 Liberalism meaning you have an inherent right to choose for yourself.
00:11:14.040 Let's see.
00:11:15.020 He says a few professions participate in the grandeur and the future of this nation as much as the medical profession does.
00:11:22.080 And none is so rife with the Jews, nor hopelessly invaded by foreign thinking.
00:11:27.960 Now, you could say, well, I mean, in today's world, we're almost there saying the Jews here in America.
00:11:35.300 But you could also say, instead of foreign thinking, MAGA.
00:11:40.360 People who believe in the Constitution, that believe that we are a republic.
00:11:45.720 The PhDs that are Jewish hold the leading chairs of medicine in universities.
00:11:53.800 They are sterilizing the medical art and impregnating generations of young doctors with a mechanist way of thinking.
00:12:03.220 Okay.
00:12:07.340 They've already taken care of this in the universities.
00:12:12.260 And anybody who is a conservative is is talked about like that.
00:12:18.760 They just they don't get it.
00:12:20.660 They're living in the past.
00:12:21.920 They hate people.
00:12:23.840 They hate children.
00:12:25.020 They are a threat to our democracy.
00:12:28.200 Right.
00:12:29.760 Jewish colleagues sit at the places of honor in doctor societies and associations.
00:12:34.000 Now, again, this one they've already taken care of here in America.
00:12:37.040 There's no one who is a conservative that has been honored and is sitting in high places in any of these organizations.
00:12:45.440 They're making a trumpery of the honor of the medical profession as they are systematically annihilating our code of ethics.
00:12:56.060 Do we have two ethics, two set of ethics in this country?
00:13:00.980 I think we do.
00:13:04.320 I think we have the progressive code of ethics and then the traditional American code of ethics.
00:13:14.400 Let's see.
00:13:15.880 We are indebted to them for ever growing mercantilism, meaning capitalism, unworthy of our profession.
00:13:23.680 So capitalism shouldn't play any role because of it.
00:13:26.840 We shall be impoverished.
00:13:27.980 Impoverished, our credit with the people will collapse.
00:13:31.080 So because of capitalism, the people will be impoverished.
00:13:37.400 You can't have that.
00:13:39.080 You need a socialized system.
00:13:42.200 Have we heard that from anyone?
00:13:45.360 German doctors, this we know.
00:13:48.800 Those responsible for the situation are foreigners.
00:13:51.520 They alone have led us this way.
00:13:52.980 They have been opposed to any German thinking in our organizations.
00:13:57.980 So could that be said by people who are MAGA or people who are constitutionalists or people who are classical liberals?
00:14:06.380 Yeah.
00:14:07.340 Yeah.
00:14:08.200 We've been opposed to any of this new think in all organizations.
00:14:13.400 But we have welcomed every Marxist proposal, but they have welcomed every Marxist proposal and every Jewish member or measure that came along.
00:14:24.080 We have not.
00:14:26.680 We have not.
00:14:27.560 They have.
00:14:28.040 That the medical profession should constitute a Judeo-Masonic enclave at the heart of Germany cannot be allowed to happen.
00:14:42.500 Honor and sense the duty that obliges us to put an end to this scandal.
00:14:48.220 It is for this reason we are appealing to the entire German medical profession.
00:14:54.540 Clean up the administration of our organizations.
00:14:57.440 Sweep aside all those who do not wish to understand the new way of thinking.
00:15:03.860 Does that sound familiar?
00:15:05.960 For we wish to work together towards the reestablishment of a new medical profession for the welfare of the people and the honor of the German doctor.
00:15:18.020 Okay, so they the medical associations listen to this and then they begin to they again begin to socialize the medicine and that's when they get into euthanasia and it's a public welfare project.
00:15:43.880 That's what this is.
00:15:44.880 It is for the good of the German people and those who are suffering.
00:15:51.740 Okay.
00:15:53.420 They're just unproductive people and they're suffering and we should help them meet the Lord.
00:16:03.780 Now.
00:16:05.200 They go on.
00:16:07.060 They start liquidating people.
00:16:10.400 People become suspicious.
00:16:12.860 What does the government do?
00:16:14.020 The government comes out and says we're not doing any of that.
00:16:18.600 That's not true.
00:16:20.360 Does that sound familiar?
00:16:23.500 How many times have we heard we're not doing that?
00:16:27.440 That's not true.
00:16:28.440 That's a conspiracy theory.
00:16:30.460 And even Hitler himself comes out and says this is an affront to the German ethics.
00:16:35.940 We are not killing children and behind the scenes.
00:16:41.460 That's exactly what they're doing.
00:16:44.940 Then they start a new campaign and they start to go after the universities and and culture and they start producing movies and films that are showing how insensitive it is for you to judge people that want to die.
00:17:02.620 And there was a there was a there was a new movie that was released by Goebbels from propaganda called I accuse.
00:17:14.840 And this was about a doctor whose wife and this was about a doctor whose wife was dying and he gave her, you know, life ending medicine out of compassion and he was prosecuted for it.
00:17:28.820 Persecuted is the way it is made to believe in the movie.
00:17:33.420 And he says, you accuse me of this.
00:17:37.000 I accuse you of having no heart.
00:17:40.460 Euthanasia becomes popular and there's new passports for death and then they develop public private partnerships for death.
00:17:54.180 For instance, the charitable organizations that would take old people and children out of the hospitals and kill them.
00:18:01.400 It was the community labor service.
00:18:03.480 It was the nonprofit association for financial questions.
00:18:06.480 It was the Patients Transportation Corporation that did all of these things, not the government.
00:18:13.180 Oh, surely not the government.
00:18:18.980 They created a system.
00:18:22.260 Where the scariest were not the black coated SS officers.
00:18:29.300 The scariest were the ones wearing the white coats.
00:18:33.800 It was the doctors and nurses that first laid all of the foundations for what the Nazis are best known for.
00:18:45.260 I warn you, you cannot make medicine political.
00:18:51.080 You cannot take political matters and bring them in to the system of medicine.
00:18:59.480 But that's exactly what we're doing.
00:19:02.020 And may I ask, do you think you or your family can afford, in every way that that is meant or conjures, can you and your family afford another four years of this?
00:19:16.480 All right, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
00:19:20.980 It is pre-born.
00:19:22.140 Since the overturning of Roe versus Wade a couple of years ago, we've passed the 65 million mark on abortions and thousands more babies are killed every day.
00:19:31.880 It's a staggering number.
00:19:34.500 God only knows what those children would have gone on to do with their lives if they had gotten to live them.
00:19:39.440 Pre-born is the largest pro-life organization in the country.
00:19:44.300 Pro-life, I believe, as I just shared with you, is possibly the most important thing you can stand for right now.
00:19:54.280 You take this block away and everything else collapses.
00:19:58.260 Every day, pre-born sponsors free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born.
00:20:07.620 When a mom sees her unborn child on that monitor, she hears that heartbeat.
00:20:11.660 She's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.
00:20:15.540 I know because I was one of them that actually was in this situation.
00:20:20.260 A 14-year-old girl in Texas was pregnant.
00:20:24.160 She didn't know what to do.
00:20:25.420 She actually decided to save the baby, but she couldn't keep it.
00:20:30.560 We now have Rafe, our son.
00:20:33.120 We were there in the delivery room because of that brave, brave mother.
00:20:38.820 There are other options.
00:20:41.100 Please, if you can make a donation of $28, that'll buy an ultrasound.
00:20:45.800 The government is not working on saving babies.
00:20:49.200 And a donation of $1,000, $2,000, $20,000, all gifts are tax deductible.
00:20:54.320 And we'll reach eternity.
00:20:57.020 Get involved today.
00:20:58.760 Donate.
00:20:59.200 Take a stand.
00:21:00.100 Dial pound 250.
00:21:01.220 Say the keyword baby.
00:21:02.460 That's pound 250, keyword baby.

00:23:18.280 Back with more in a minute.
00:23:22.640 You know, I don't know about other radio shows.
00:23:28.500 I don't listen to, you know, other radio shows at all.
00:23:32.420 I just don't have time.
00:23:33.960 I'm just trying to read all the time.
00:23:36.220 But we are doing a lot of things right now with nonprofit groups.
00:23:43.920 And we're doing them because I don't want to sell you products unless they really, really help.
00:23:49.240 But also, I think that there are things that we need to stand for that will bring favor in the eyes of God.
00:23:54.940 Abortion is one of them.
00:23:55.920 The other one is standing up for the Jews.
00:23:59.280 Making your choice right now on who you will be.
00:24:03.560 Will you cower when they come for the Jews or the Christians?
00:24:07.580 Or will you stand up right now before it gets that bad?
00:24:11.840 Make a stand today with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
00:24:17.080 This is an opportunity for us to be able to let the people in Israel, we stand with them.
00:24:22.620 Now, that doesn't mean we're with them in war or anything else.
00:24:25.200 It means we're not going to let them be rounded up again.
00:24:29.460 Sign the pledge.
00:24:31.820 SupportIFCJ.org.
00:24:32.760 It's going to be shared with the Jewish people at the end of the month.
00:24:35.760 SupportIFCJ.org.
00:24:36.780 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:25:05.180 We're glad you're here.
00:25:06.140 We say hello and welcome to Mr. Pat Gray.
00:25:09.540 Hello.
00:25:09.760 Hello, Pat.
00:25:10.400 What's on your mind today?
00:25:13.060 Well, the Trump VP candidate is one of the things that's on my mind.
00:25:20.040 Supposedly, he's already decided.
00:25:22.400 Then he's narrowed it to three.
00:25:24.900 I'll get a lecture.
00:25:25.420 I'm going to get a lecture from Stu.
00:25:26.820 From Stu.
00:25:27.280 Really?
00:25:27.940 He's going to flip on you.
00:25:29.300 This is fake.
00:25:30.280 It's all fake.
00:25:31.040 It's all fake.
00:25:31.860 And Donald Trump will tell you who he's picked when he wants to tell you who he's picked.
00:25:36.580 No, I want to guess on it today.
00:25:38.060 This is a game show.
00:25:38.580 It's going to be today.
00:25:39.500 It's reportedly coming today.
00:25:40.800 It might be at the convention.
00:25:42.320 Might be after the election.
00:25:44.460 I don't know.
00:25:45.340 Maybe it's going to be last week.
00:25:46.840 He told us every day.
00:25:48.580 There's a new freaking report.
00:25:49.560 It's true.
00:25:49.620 Then it's like, it's down to four.
00:25:50.920 Because he's an entertainer.
00:25:52.160 It's down to nine.
00:25:53.620 Yes.
00:25:54.260 Right.
00:25:54.600 Why are we falling for this?
00:25:57.380 Donald Trump controls this information.
00:25:59.880 He will let you know when he's ready.
00:26:01.860 That's the entire story.
00:26:03.460 Hang on just a second.
00:26:04.360 Hang on.
00:26:04.600 This is like being angry at the end of The Apprentice.
00:26:08.600 I mean, why are we watching this?
00:26:09.800 He's already made his decision.
00:26:11.120 We already know who he's going to pick, right?
00:26:13.380 Right.
00:26:13.660 Why do they keep the music going?
00:26:15.660 This is good.
00:26:16.520 This is what Donald Trump does really well.
00:26:19.100 He keeps people engaged.
00:26:20.940 I don't think this is a problem.
00:26:22.400 It's a problem for us looking at the news and going, well, that's probably true.
00:26:27.720 Yeah.
00:26:27.980 It's a problem for the media.
00:26:29.520 And I believe, my belief is, this is just him screwing with the media constantly.
00:26:35.480 He has different people in his administration leaking different things.
00:26:39.380 They all back up each other's sources.
00:26:40.840 Yeah, no, I did hear him say that.
00:26:42.480 And they're just telling the media just to screw with them over and over and over again.
00:26:46.380 And then every day, we should know better.
00:26:49.040 Like, we should know better to actually.
00:26:52.040 I will tell you.
00:26:52.900 Listen to it, even though it's fun to speculate on.
00:26:55.920 He also speculates as trial balloons.
00:27:00.660 He also likes to see.
00:27:02.100 If you've ever seen him speak.
00:27:04.000 I've watched him from behind the stage.
00:27:06.280 So I've seen him.
00:27:08.080 And I just, he is so brilliant.
00:27:11.400 I watch him and he'll throw things out and he'll gauge the reaction.
00:27:17.360 And I'll look at him watching the audience.
00:27:20.540 And people think that he's, you know, just standing there like Caesar.
00:27:24.340 Yes.
00:27:24.820 Say, oh, my minions.
00:27:26.560 He's measuring their response.
00:27:29.420 That's what Donald Trump does and entertains.
00:27:33.280 So I think it's a combination of those two.
00:27:35.780 So who do you think it's going to be?
00:27:37.820 He's already made his decision.
00:27:39.580 Did you know that?
00:27:40.920 He made his decision.
00:27:42.220 The next day it was down to three.
00:27:43.880 And then today it's down to four.
00:27:45.560 And then the rumor was yesterday that it's Vivek Ravaswamy again.
00:27:49.580 Right.
00:27:49.820 Who he's already publicly ruled out.
00:27:51.960 No.
00:27:52.340 He's already said it's not him.
00:27:53.760 Right.
00:27:54.160 But now it might be him.
00:27:56.360 Do we not?
00:27:57.300 It's so insane.
00:27:58.700 I know.
00:27:59.880 I know.
00:28:00.180 I just hope it is somebody that could be the president of the United States next election.
00:28:04.980 Yeah, for sure.
00:28:05.560 I just hope he is, you know, and we talked about this yesterday.
00:28:08.780 J.D. Vance would be a really good torchbearer to make Donald Trump's legacy, not just the two terms, but the be able to make it more than the man.
00:28:24.040 So Reaganism became a movement where Donald Trump is a movement.
00:28:30.320 However, nobody's really been able to do it except for Donald Trump.
00:28:34.260 And it would be nice to have somebody as the VP who can make this a movement.
00:28:41.220 So Donald Trump is known for more than just being, you know, a two term president that was very good.
00:28:47.940 He'll be known as a movement.
00:28:51.720 That's a really interesting point you bring up there, because Reaganism was a movement because of its overwhelming success.
00:28:59.880 Right.
00:29:00.020 It was so good.
00:29:01.500 Yes.
00:29:01.700 And it had a really, really strong intellectual backbone.
00:29:07.380 Right.
00:29:07.540 There was think tanks and magazines and all the intellectuals who had the support beneath that.
00:29:13.460 That's not exactly the profile of Trumpism.
00:29:17.720 Right.
00:29:18.260 And I think one of the.
00:29:19.320 Well, now.
00:29:20.000 Right now.
00:29:20.580 That's what I'm saying, though.
00:29:21.700 Right.
00:29:21.960 The weakness and maybe something that hurt Reaganism as a long term movement was his VP was not a Reaganite.
00:29:30.420 Correct.
00:29:31.020 So when after the two massive successful terms, his VP takes over and like, ah, yeah, we might just raise taxes now and undid a lot of the things because he wasn't a believer in that philosophy.
00:29:43.780 I don't know.
00:29:44.200 I think there's a lesson there for Trump.
00:29:45.760 Like, I would want someone who believes intellectually and can carry that torch this next election.
00:29:50.800 Yes.
00:29:51.920 And I think we have a chance of winning 12 years.
00:29:56.640 I mean, you know, Republicans always screw it up.
00:29:59.300 But if Donald Trump picks the right person to be at his side and passes the torch to that person at the end of his term and that person believes in the things like small government, et cetera, et cetera, we could win 12 years and that would change everything.
00:30:16.120 Remember, the reason why we set this course back in the 1930s, Wilson started it, but then they had 12 solid years of FDR.
00:30:29.860 And it was those 12 years that locked everything down.
00:30:33.960 That's why it should be Ron DeSantis.
00:30:35.420 It's not going to be, but it should be him.
00:30:38.000 Set him up for 2028.
00:30:39.160 Yeah, I agree.
00:30:39.620 Would have been great.
00:30:40.360 Now, he says he doesn't want it.
00:30:41.940 Yeah.
00:30:42.120 I mean, why would you not, though?
00:30:43.760 Seriously.
00:30:44.380 How could you not draft him?
00:30:46.120 Because you're the guy for sure in 2028.
00:30:48.420 It's the same reason you don't want the job as head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.
00:30:53.180 It's like you go to the Lakers and you win.
00:30:56.340 It's LeBron's accomplishment, not yours.
00:30:59.200 If you go there and you lose, it's your fault.
00:31:02.500 And it's the same thing here.
00:31:03.920 Like, this is Trump's thing.
00:31:05.500 And I think DeSantis sees himself, while aligned with Trump on a lot of things, as a different person, different movement.
00:31:12.580 Like, he's his own guy.
00:31:14.340 And he thinks he's got a big future.
00:31:16.260 And why would I go in there?
00:31:17.300 This is going to be Trump's thing, not mine.
00:31:19.000 He ran this year, though.
00:31:20.200 So, certainly, he's going to run in 28.
00:31:22.380 You'd think.
00:31:22.880 He is going to run in 28.
00:31:24.180 And that sets you up.
00:31:25.680 Well, Cruz didn't run, though.
00:31:27.420 Like, Cruz didn't come back.
00:31:28.640 A lot of those guys from 2016 didn't come back.
00:31:31.460 I mean...
00:31:31.700 He will.
00:31:31.980 He probably will.
00:31:33.680 Yeah, he will.
00:31:35.780 And I think that he needs the credibility of being outside of the Republican establishment.
00:31:43.940 You know?
00:31:44.340 I think this race hurt him on that.
00:31:47.740 I think he, you know, had a little bit of the Nikki Haley kind of feel.
00:31:52.820 Not him personally.
00:31:54.060 But the feeling that I heard from so many people is he's surrounding himself by so many really bad people.
00:32:00.940 They're all the GOP-ers.
00:32:02.520 He's going to change.
00:32:03.520 He's going to change.
00:32:04.260 He needs to cement that he's not going to change.
00:32:06.980 He is not part of the old GOP.
00:32:09.720 And if Donald Trump does his job, he will have destroyed the old GOP.
00:32:17.600 Destroyed it.
00:32:18.200 And I don't think there could be anything better than destroying those old dinosaurs that think we're living in 1951.
00:32:26.340 Because we're not.
00:32:27.320 I don't know if you know that.
00:32:28.400 What would be the decisions you'd make if you're Trump to make this decision?
00:32:33.020 Obviously, you want someone who could be president if they needed to be.
00:32:35.800 And as we just talked about, you'd want maybe a person who's going to be available to win in 2028.
00:32:42.080 But what else?
00:32:43.080 What other decisions will you make?
00:32:44.220 One thing I think is interesting about Vance, and let me throw this out at you.
00:32:48.480 They talk about the vice president all the time of hitting a certain constituency, right?
00:32:53.280 And everyone's like, well, Vance doesn't do that.
00:32:55.220 He doesn't have Marco Rubio, maybe Hispanic vote, or all these little calculations.
00:33:00.660 You don't need it.
00:33:01.700 And I don't think you need it.
00:33:02.700 First of all, I think at the end of the day, Trump should make this based on his legacy and what he wants later.
00:33:09.360 Because honestly, it's probably not going to make a difference as to whether he wins or loses.
00:33:13.620 But one quick thing on Vance.
00:33:16.200 Vance is from Ohio, which used to be the swing state, right?
00:33:20.780 Like, I mean, in 2004, it was the swing state.
00:33:23.640 Here, we don't think of it as a swing state anymore.
00:33:25.680 It's a red state.
00:33:26.640 However, the three most important states in this election are all right there in that region in which J.D. Vance wrote a book talking about all the problems of this region.
00:33:42.040 He knows those voters really well.
00:33:45.960 And I'm talking about Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania.
00:33:49.180 He knows them really, really well.
00:33:51.200 He can connect with those voters probably as good as anybody.
00:33:54.960 And like...
00:33:55.760 Maybe better.
00:33:56.360 If Trump wins Georgia, if he wins Nevada, if he wins Arizona and doesn't win those three states, he still loses.
00:34:05.380 He has to pick off one of those three.
00:34:08.420 And I don't know, Vance makes some sense from that perspective.
00:34:11.240 Yeah.
00:34:11.460 I think J.D. Vance makes the most sense out of all of them.
00:34:15.220 Although, J.D. has told me that he hasn't talked to Trump about it at all.
00:34:19.920 So...
00:34:20.240 Yeah.
00:34:20.560 But maybe that's because Trump has already...
00:34:22.080 That's just like Donald Trump has already made his decision and he also has 14.
00:34:24.540 Yeah, I know.
00:34:25.020 I know.
00:34:25.460 None of that stuff makes any difference.
00:34:27.280 I know.
00:34:28.280 Do you agree with that?
00:34:29.060 Is that a sensible direction?
00:34:32.660 I mean, like Marco Rubio, I still come back to he's not fundamentally Trumpian, right?
00:34:38.860 Like it's not who he is.
00:34:40.040 And also Donald Trump would have to move.
00:34:42.460 And I just don't believe Donald Trump is going to move for his vice president.
00:34:45.260 He wouldn't really have to move, though.
00:34:46.240 He just changes his...
00:34:47.560 He just has to change it.
00:34:47.700 He wouldn't actually have to physically get in a movie truck and get a U-Haul and unload
00:34:52.700 Mar-a-Lago.
00:34:52.840 That's not...
00:34:53.980 Do you think he's going to...
00:34:55.160 Do you think he'd use a U-Haul truck?
00:34:56.780 Yeah, I think so.
00:34:57.580 I see him as more of a...
00:34:59.460 More of somebody who just, you know, hires beacons.
00:35:02.220 Yeah, Mayflower beacons.
00:35:03.700 He may box it all up himself, but...
00:35:06.460 I'm sure he would.
00:35:07.160 I don't know if he'd drive the truck.
00:35:08.480 It would be a really funny way to unveil the reality show.
00:35:12.860 Really would.
00:35:13.140 Like he's...
00:35:14.200 I'm going to make it at Mar-a-Lago and then you just pull up and there's just
00:35:17.440 moving trucks out in front and he's just taking some of his possessions up to whatever
00:35:22.900 house is closest by.
00:35:24.200 It would be hilarious.
00:35:25.080 So funny.
00:35:25.760 Yeah, it would be.
00:35:26.880 So, Pat, who do you think?
00:35:28.820 Who should it be?
00:35:30.240 Well, it should be DeSantis.
00:35:32.040 It's not going to be.
00:35:33.040 But out of the reported possibilities, what do you think?
00:35:36.660 I'm kind of leaning toward Rubio.
00:35:39.320 I mean, it's not a crazy choice.
00:35:41.440 We really liked Rubio 10 years ago.
00:35:44.820 We loved him 10 years ago when we sat down with him.
00:35:47.220 Yeah.
00:35:47.620 And he's been on the show recently.
00:35:49.940 He's right on a lot of things.
00:35:51.900 I don't see him as aligned, particularly on things like Ukraine with Trump.
00:35:57.900 That's true.
00:35:58.200 I mean, they're pretty far away.
00:36:00.080 That is true.
00:36:00.620 It seems like on that stuff.
00:36:02.340 But, again, the vice president very likely in a Trump administration will have basically no input.
00:36:08.940 Right?
00:36:09.080 Like, it's Trump's administration.
00:36:10.700 This is a secondary role.
00:36:12.200 It's going to be chosen for other reasons.
00:36:14.000 But wait.
00:36:14.900 That's why you get somebody who is on the same page with you.
00:36:18.460 Yeah.
00:36:19.180 I mean, he's going to be fighting so many forest fires that he has got to have a vice president
00:36:25.360 that can drop in and go, Mr. President, I'll take that right there.
00:36:29.900 What is the plan?
00:36:30.720 What do you want me to accomplish?
00:36:32.360 I got it.
00:36:33.480 And then go do those things while he's concentrating on other things.
00:36:37.680 He needs a strong vice president.
00:36:40.100 And the country needs a strong vice president because that vice president is going to be the one
00:36:46.520 that will be running against, I don't know, maybe Hillary Clinton in the Democratic Party
00:36:53.660 in four years from now.
00:36:55.900 I mean, why not?
00:36:56.720 She's not that old yet.
00:36:58.040 She's only in her 70s.
00:36:59.280 She did a great op-ed yesterday in the New York Times about, she's apparently the only
00:37:03.020 person who's ever debated both of these guys, Trump and Biden.
00:37:06.420 Oh.
00:37:06.900 And so she wrote this horrible op-ed about it.
00:37:09.240 Maybe we can go through it later.
00:37:10.260 But I just want to get Pat on the record.
00:37:12.320 Are you denying bergamentum?
00:37:14.200 Yes.
00:37:15.560 Yes.
00:37:15.820 I want to get you on the record.
00:37:24.040 Are you saying, because this is all the rage now, that Hillary Clinton is going to be the
00:37:28.820 nominee to step in at the very last minute?
00:37:31.260 No.
00:37:31.980 The Democrats hate Hillary.
00:37:33.200 Nobody's stepping in.
00:37:33.660 They hate, first of all, it's going to be Biden unless he's stepping in.
00:37:36.540 Nobody's stepping in.
00:37:37.120 Right.
00:37:37.340 No one's stepping in.
00:37:38.060 Okay.
00:37:38.280 But also, the Democrats don't even like Hillary Clinton.
00:37:41.100 They can't stand her for losing to Trump.
00:37:44.020 I'm guessing that that came from Hillary Clinton.
00:37:48.340 Yes.
00:37:48.580 She's like, you know, I've heard that I'm going to be the one.
00:37:51.940 You know, so.
00:37:52.580 All right.
00:37:53.000 Back in just a minute.
00:37:54.040 Thank you, Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:37:55.700 You can hear the podcast every day on Blaze TV live before this program, but also wherever
00:38:01.520 you get your podcasts.
00:38:03.160 What are your plans for the 4th of July?
00:38:05.800 What are your plans for the 4th of July?
00:38:08.420 I hope you're doing something fun.
00:38:10.100 We're doing something fun.
00:38:11.580 I hope you're not doing kind of what we're doing right now.
00:38:15.100 We have been remodeling this ranch now forever, and we're still two weeks away, two weeks
00:38:23.720 away, and I hope that's true because I'm having a family reunion here, and my family is hard
00:38:29.680 enough to deal with, but without, you know, boxes and everything else.
00:38:34.160 So we're spending 4th of July, you know, trying to finish the house and unbox things.
00:38:41.220 It's really, really great.
00:38:42.700 Anyway, if you are looking to buy or sell a house and you have to move, I know it's a
00:38:48.700 nightmare.

00:39:01.160 neighborhoods are worth, know what's going on in those neighborhoods, knows the schools,
00:39:05.320 et cetera, et cetera.

00:40:06.800 Maybe you've done the research on the stuff you buy at the store.
00:40:09.380 You don't buy Bud Light.
00:40:10.500 Maybe you skip the Disney movies these days because of all the woke stuff.
00:40:14.120 And that's understandable and it's helpful, frankly.
00:40:16.560 But what about your investments?

00:41:45.180 Hello and welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:41:47.300 We're glad you're here.
00:41:47.980 Um, so I saw the new Kevin Costner movie, Horizon, uh, last night.
00:41:54.700 This is Horizon American Saga chapter one.
00:41:57.980 Yeah.
00:41:58.700 And I think there are four chapters of this, uh, and Costner has sunk, I think, $38 million
00:42:04.120 of his own money into this.
00:42:06.820 And, uh, it's long, it's three hours long, but worth every minute.
00:42:12.740 The first 10 minutes of this movie, you will say, I, what the hell is going on?
00:42:16.800 I don't even understand.
00:42:17.840 I was so confused by the first 10 minutes, um, because they're setting up the largest
00:42:24.220 saga I have ever seen a movie try to do outside of Star Wars.
00:42:29.020 Okay.
00:42:29.500 Or the Lord of the Rings, you know, where they're always introducing new characters and you're
00:42:33.380 like, wait, who are these people?
00:42:35.360 Um, and the, the first 10 minutes you're, you're meeting all of these different people
00:42:40.980 and you don't know what, it just kind of drops into a story and it is the American story.
00:42:46.140 And I, after watching this, a couple of things came to mind.
00:42:50.000 Kevin Costner is possibly the only person alive today that can do the American West, the pioneer
00:42:59.660 story, the story of, you know, 1860s America with cowboys and Indians and tell it honestly
00:43:08.380 and accurately.
00:43:09.400 It's the most accurate depiction of that time period I've ever seen.
00:43:15.320 It, it's not woke at all.
00:43:17.880 In fact, it starts with an Indian massacre from the Apaches who the Apaches were really
00:43:22.300 bad at the time, but also shows good Indians and good white guys and bad white guys.
00:43:27.740 It's an epic, epic story.
00:43:31.140 Um, the other thing I thought of was move aside, uh, Clint Eastwood.
00:43:36.400 I love Clint Eastwood Westerns, especially the later ones.
00:43:40.540 Uh, Kevin Costner has made Clint Eastwood look like John Wayne movies.

00:45:42.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:45:50.080 Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:45:52.080 We're getting a couple of decisions.
00:45:54.080 One of them is a big one that we have so far from the Supreme Court.
00:45:58.080 It is the social media.
00:46:00.080 Does the government, can the government instruct social media what to do?
00:46:07.080 It's a big one and from the looks of it as it was starting to come out,
00:46:11.080 doesn't look like it's going to go well for the right.
00:46:15.080 We'll explain, go through it, and also the debate tomorrow.
00:46:19.080 I want to spend a few minutes on what I think Donald Trump should say in the debate,
00:46:25.080 how he should play this in the debate.
00:46:28.080 We'll give you all of that and so much more.
00:46:31.080 This hour we begin in 60 seconds.
00:46:34.080 Our sponsor this half hour is Patriot Mobile.
00:46:37.080 I have a challenge for you.
00:46:39.080 If you could change your mobile plan, would you?
00:46:42.080 You could get in there and fiddle around with, you know, everything.

00:47:49.080 All right, let me first go to Stu, who is monitoring what's coming out of the Supreme Court today.
00:47:56.080 Tomorrow and Friday are going to have, there's going to be a lot of activity at the Supreme Court.
00:48:01.080 And we will try to go over them the best we can because they are coming out live.
00:48:06.080 One just was released about three minutes ago.
00:48:09.080 Can you tell us anything about that, Stu?
00:48:11.080 Yeah, this is Murthy versus Missouri.
00:48:14.080 This is a court case that was, we've talked about it.
00:48:18.080 It was about basically whether the government going to social media companies and trying to get them to censor what they called misinformation was a violation of the First Amendment.
00:48:29.080 And this is not going to be a good ruling.
00:48:32.080 I think this is going to be pretty bad.
00:48:34.080 Hang on.
00:48:35.080 Hang on just a second.
00:48:36.080 Sarah, can you call Sarah Kolk and see if she can get the AG of Missouri on the phone to go through this with us?
00:48:42.080 Yeah, it'd be interesting.
00:48:43.080 Yeah, that'd be great.
00:48:44.080 So this is, to give you an easy basic sense, this is a 6-3 decision.
00:48:50.080 The three in dissent who opposed it were Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch.
00:48:55.080 So that's not necessarily a good thing.
00:48:57.080 That's not good.
00:48:58.080 It was written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett.
00:49:01.080 She, it's seemingly mostly about standing.
00:49:06.080 So that's, you know, just whether they were able to bring the case at all.
00:49:11.080 And that is not necessarily something that would decide this.
00:49:14.080 However, reading through the actual ruling here, it does seem to have bigger ramifications than that.
00:49:24.080 Barrett writes, platforms had independent incentives to moderate content and often exercise their own judgment.
00:49:31.080 To be sure, the record reflects that the government defendants played a role in at least some of the platforms moderation choices.
00:49:37.080 But the Fifth Circuit, by attributing every platform decision, at least in part to the defendants, glossed over complexities in the evidence.
00:49:43.080 Now, there is a case years and years ago, Glenn, called Bantam Books v. Sullivan.
00:49:50.080 This is in the 60s.
00:49:51.080 Yes.
00:49:52.080 And they ruled that, yes, informal and indirect efforts by the government to suppress speech basically can violate the First Amendment.
00:50:02.080 So the precedent here should have leaned our way.
00:50:06.080 It does not look like it turned out our way here.
00:50:09.080 So, and we have one other one coming in.
00:50:13.080 It's only going to be, it looks like two today.
00:50:15.080 So I'll give you the details of this here in a second.
00:50:18.080 Do you know which one it is yet?
00:50:20.080 Hold on.
00:50:23.080 If you give me about 30 seconds.
00:50:25.080 Boy, this is, yeah, this is an absolute gut punch to those of us that have to deal with social media and deal with the government.
00:50:34.080 This is an absolute gut punch.
00:50:37.080 We are being so suppressed right now.
00:50:40.080 And it's all because of the election.
00:50:43.080 I mean, we can't get any of our documentaries.
00:50:45.080 Google is just blocking us every way.
00:50:47.080 YouTube blocking us in every way.
00:50:49.080 I've told you before, my Facebook page down 95% in traffic, yet I'm having the best three, four years of my career bigger than when I was at Fox.
00:51:03.080 How is that possible that all of a sudden my Facebook just in one month, just boom, and then stays there?
00:51:11.080 How is that possible?
00:51:12.080 How is that possible?
00:51:13.080 How is that possible?
00:51:14.080 There's only one reason we're being suppressed and every, but did you hear what Instagram was doing to Tucker Carlson?
00:51:20.080 If you went and looked for Instagram and Tucker Carlson, you would find a whole bunch of other Tucker Carlson's before you would find him.
00:51:28.080 That's weird.
00:51:29.080 Um, and then when you did find him and you tried to subscribe or follow him, it would pop up a box that said, are you sure you want to follow Tucker Carlson?
00:51:41.080 This site has, uh, published many false, uh, facts and, uh, you know, red herrings or whatever.
00:51:50.080 Uh, excuse me.
00:51:54.080 I don't see that on anybody else's page from the left.
00:51:58.080 No one.
00:51:59.080 Keith over in.
00:52:02.080 I mean, I'm just trying to think of the worst of the worst.
00:52:05.080 Joy read.
00:52:07.080 Nope.
00:52:08.080 That doesn't show up on joy read.
00:52:10.080 This is all happening and it's happening all over the globe.
00:52:14.080 This is why Elon Musk was in so much trouble in, uh, Brazil recently because he was standing up against and saying, no, you, you cannot tell me what to do and what not to do.
00:52:25.080 So, uh, this is, this is bad for people who believe in freedom of speech and believe in, uh, the government.
00:52:35.080 Not being able to coerce people into silencing others on their platform.
00:52:41.080 I got to tell you, if the gut United States government called me and said, Hey, you need to, um, you need to silence.
00:52:49.080 Whomever whomever whomever on our site.
00:52:53.080 Uh, I would be stunned.
00:52:56.080 I mean, if Donald Trump did that, I would say, no, I've actually had a Republican at one point kind of try to do that with me.
00:53:07.080 And, and I said, this is when I was running the blaze and they called me and I said, uh, no.
00:53:16.080 Well, look, we're friends.
00:53:18.080 Everything else is, and I said, absolutely not.
00:53:20.080 I don't tell people what to do, what to say.
00:53:23.080 That's their opinion.
00:53:25.080 If they've said something that is inaccurate, please let me know.
00:53:29.080 I will pass it on to them and ask them to make sure that they correct any error, but that's it.
00:53:36.080 That's it.
00:53:37.080 Uh, this is a whole different ball game in a whole different world.
00:53:43.080 All right, Stu, do you have, do you have it?
00:53:46.080 Yes.
00:53:47.080 It's a Snyder versus us.
00:53:49.080 This is not, um, you know, one that was highly talked about in the media.
00:53:53.080 I would say, um, it is a six, three decision on conservative liberal lines.
00:53:57.080 Again, I use air quotes for that.
00:53:59.080 When I consider John Robertson, the conservative majority.
00:54:03.080 Um, however, uh, uh, Jackson, Sotomayor and Kagan are the three dissenting here.
00:54:08.080 It's about bribery case.
00:54:10.080 Basically like we all know you're not allowed to, uh, bribe someone for a policy in the future.
00:54:16.080 The question was, can you essentially say thank you for a policy with a gift?
00:54:22.080 Oh my gosh.
00:54:23.080 Um, and no, well, no.
00:54:26.080 And that's almost, that's true.
00:54:27.080 Almost everywhere.
00:54:28.080 The question though, was whether the federal government was the one to decide that.
00:54:31.080 And the court ruled, this is up to state and local legislatures, uh, to decide.
00:54:36.080 That's good.
00:54:37.080 That is really good.
00:54:38.080 I mean, obviously.
00:54:39.080 That is really good.
00:54:40.080 I mean, no one is, I think, I don't think it's a good idea, uh, to, uh, to, to encourage such behavior.
00:54:46.080 But obviously like, you know, there are, uh, some exceptions I suppose to that, but the question is who's going to be, you know, thinking about and designating the punishments for these things.
00:54:58.080 And it should not be overwhelmed by the federal government.
00:55:00.080 It should go to the local officials.
00:55:02.080 All right, back in just a second.
00:55:04.080 And we'll talk about the, the debate.
00:55:06.080 Um, let me tell you about my pillow.
00:55:08.080 It's hard to keep a good company down, especially one that puts out really good products consistently the way my pillow does.
00:55:15.080 I, I wear their slippers almost all the time.
00:55:20.080 Now I've been singing their praises of their pillow, especially their new one.
00:55:23.080 I like their old one.
00:55:24.080 The new one is even better.

00:56:29.080 Station.
00:56:30.080 All right, tonight on my Wednesday night TV special.
00:56:44.080 Have you ever wondered why our entire economic system is now based on massive debt and neither the Republicans or the Democrats ever seem to care about doing anything about it?
00:56:55.080 All of the experts now, everyone is saying the new target for inflation appears to be 3% rather than previous 2% inflation.
00:57:06.080 So why are they, why are they fine with prices going up 3% every year?
00:57:12.080 Food, gas, energy, already becoming scarce due to the rest of us getting priced out.
00:57:18.080 So why is the green agenda making everything more scarce?
00:57:22.080 And in the middle of all of this, neither party ever attempts to fix our border and immigration.
00:57:27.080 Oh, they talk about it, but they never actually do it.
00:57:30.080 Well, there's an answer for all of these things.
00:57:33.080 But why, why the Chinese farmers?
00:57:36.080 Do you know how much, how many businesses and land have been sold in the last few years alone to foreign entities?
00:57:46.080 It is mind blowing.
00:57:48.080 I'm going to show you some graphs tonight.
00:57:50.080 One of them is about the average household wealth.
00:57:54.080 And it is disappearing.
00:57:56.080 And the government and the top 1% elites are sucking it up like a giant vacuum.
00:58:02.080 It's a theft of the nation.
00:58:05.080 And the middle class is now on life support.
00:58:08.080 And we're being pushed into a two class system, elites in government, and then the rest of the serfs.
00:58:14.080 Don't miss the Wednesday night special at 9pm Eastern Blaze TV on my Thursday night program and Wednesday night program.
00:58:23.080 Thursday will be on the YouTube channel if you can see it.
00:58:26.080 American elites have built a caste system for you.
00:58:29.080 That's tonight.
00:58:31.080 Now, let me just let me be so bold to address how I think President Trump should handle the debates with Joe Biden.
00:58:43.080 Let me play cut six here.
00:58:47.080 This is Joe Biden's campaign spokesperson talking about his accomplishments.
00:58:52.080 Here we go.
00:58:53.080 I think you've got to, first of all, take a step back and look at what President Biden has done for the economy.
00:58:58.080 He's created over 15 million jobs.
00:59:00.080 GDP has been at a record high.
00:59:02.080 Unemployment's been low, especially among black Americans and Hispanic Americans.
00:59:06.080 So you will see President Biden talking about his accomplishments.
00:59:11.080 Uh huh.
00:59:13.080 Now, Donald Trump could come in and debate with Joe Biden.
00:59:20.080 I wouldn't.
00:59:21.080 I wouldn't.
00:59:22.080 I wouldn't debate with Joe Biden.
00:59:24.080 I wouldn't debate with Joe, with Jake Tapper.
00:59:27.080 I would just say, look, what was your question, Jake?
00:59:32.080 It was about Ukraine and what we're going to do in Ukraine.
00:59:35.080 OK, I'm not going to debate a guy on foreign policy.
00:59:40.080 He's responsible for the disaster of Afghanistan, for the Taliban being back for the Russia Ukraine war for the Middle East.
00:59:51.080 The Russia Ukraine and now the Middle East has brought our gas prices, our food prices and inflation to record highs.
01:00:00.080 So I'm not going to I'm not going to even talk about what he's doing.
01:00:05.080 I'm just telling you right now, the American people cannot take it anymore.
01:00:10.080 The American people cannot afford these kinds of decisions coming again.
01:00:16.080 Well, what do you talk about?
01:00:18.080 You know, he's created X number of jobs.
01:00:20.080 No, he hasn't.
01:00:21.080 And have the facts.
01:00:22.080 The New York Times even says the the the Los Angeles Times just reported and you could find them.
01:00:32.080 There's been no job growth in California.
01:00:36.080 The last year of all of the reported job growth in California was bogus.
01:00:41.080 If you look at our job growth right now, you know who is getting jobs illegals.
01:00:48.080 You know who's not?
01:00:50.080 There has not been any job growth since this man got into office with Americans other than part time jobs.
01:01:01.080 More and more people have to take part time work, work to three, even for jobs just to support the family.
01:01:09.080 They can't afford rent.
01:01:11.080 Why?
01:01:12.080 Why did all of this happen?
01:01:14.080 Because of his policies.
01:01:17.080 So don't ask me to debate him on any of these things.
01:01:20.080 He's so wrong.
01:01:21.080 It's not worth anyone's time.
01:01:23.080 Here's what I promise the American people.
01:01:26.080 Your inflation is going to take a while to turn around.
01:01:31.080 But I I agree it exists.
01:01:34.080 This man told you it didn't exist.
01:01:37.080 It exists and it's dire and we're losing the dollar because of his relationship with the Saudis and all of the problems that we have had here.
01:01:50.080 We're going to lose the dollar.
01:01:52.080 I will tell you that I and I've done it before.
01:01:56.080 I have created jobs.
01:01:58.080 I have helped you and you know the best way the president can create jobs get out of the way.
01:02:04.080 This president creates jobs that are all in the United States government.
01:02:09.080 I'd like to make the unemployment rate in the United States government high.
01:02:14.080 I would like to make the employment rate for citizens of this country very low.
01:02:22.080 What's that mean?
01:02:24.080 It means the government's not going to be spending all the money creating new jobs in the government.
01:02:30.080 We're going to cut that.
01:02:32.080 I would I would I would this guy is a real estate mogul.
01:02:37.080 I would say right now you can't afford housing.
01:02:41.080 Well, I will tell you there's a place where you're going to be able to buy housing dirt cheap.
01:02:46.080 And that is in the suburbs of Washington, D.C.
01:02:51.080 Because I'm going to cut this government size so dramatically that houses will be up for sale like never before.
01:03:00.080 It will be a mass evacuation of Washington, D.C.
01:03:06.080 Only rivaled by the mass evacuation of California that these policies from the left have caused.
01:03:15.080 I would just talk about gas prices, food prices, jobs, no matter what the what the question is.
01:03:24.080 These are the actual facts.
01:03:27.080 You know, were you better off when I was in charge of the economy?
01:03:34.080 Let's take covid out of it on both sides.
01:03:41.080 Were you better off now or before covid?
01:03:46.080 Were you working?
01:03:47.080 Did you have hope that the government is creating these jobs by spending the money that they take from you?
01:03:56.080 And that's not creating any new wealth.
01:03:58.080 The way to create jobs for the government, the president to do it is free the people to work the way they want to work.
01:04:07.080 Reduce all of the all of these ridiculous climate changing global warming all these special favors to unions.
01:04:21.080 Let people work and create.
01:04:24.080 Let them let them let them choose the path and design their own life.
01:04:30.080 It's their life, not the life of the government of the United States of America.
01:04:35.080 Let them free them to make their own decisions, free them.
01:04:40.080 I have so much belief in the American people that they can dig out of any hole.
01:04:47.080 Do we need to talk about the greatest generation?
01:04:50.080 Dig them out of every hole.
01:04:54.080 The government didn't do that.
01:04:56.080 The people did.
01:04:58.080 The people did.
01:04:59.080 Well, we're in trouble again.
01:05:01.080 And the world is being divvied up between Marxist and globalists and those who want power for themselves.
01:05:11.080 I think I've taken it on the chin here long enough and I'm only getting hammered the way I am because I am the biggest obstacle standing in the globalists way.
01:05:25.080 I don't believe that any of this stuff is good for America.
01:05:31.080 And I'm sorry, you know, I keep hearing America first is so, you know, Nazi or whatever.
01:05:38.080 It's not.
01:05:39.080 I love my country.
01:05:41.080 I believe my country is the greatest beacon of freedom.
01:05:46.080 How do I know that?
01:05:49.080 Where do all the people around the world have always wanted to go to America?
01:05:53.080 They recognize the freedom here that we are now on the edge of losing.
01:05:58.080 So they can talk a good game.
01:06:01.080 I'm going to actually do these things.
01:06:04.080 Anybody who didn't vote for me last time because you didn't think that I would do the things I said I was going to do.
01:06:09.080 I did them.
01:06:11.080 I did them.
01:06:12.080 Was your border more secure?
01:06:14.080 Was our world more secure?
01:06:15.080 Were your classrooms more sane for your children?
01:06:20.080 And could you afford groceries?
01:06:22.080 Glenn Beck.
01:06:24.080 That's what I think he needs to say in tomorrow night's debate over and over and over again.
01:06:30.080 Keep bringing it to where people live.
01:06:33.080 All right.
01:06:34.080 Rough greens.
01:06:35.080 So maybe you're one of the ambitious people who actually make your own dog food at home.
01:06:38.080 Congratulations.
01:06:39.080 Yeah, I tried doing that for a while.
01:06:42.080 No, no, too much work.
01:06:44.080 Kibble food just doesn't cut it because all the good stuff is cooked out in the manufacturing process.
01:06:50.080 And there's got to be some way to get your dog all the nutrition he needs where you can afford it.
01:06:56.080 I mean, I like to make my dog food myself.
01:06:59.080 I feed him chicken and it's raw chicken because dogs have an enzyme that they can just handle raw.
01:07:06.080 Who can afford chicken for the family?
01:07:08.080 I need something that I can afford that will actually feed my dog in a good way.
01:07:15.080 Well, you can buy whatever you want for kibble food and then put rough greens on top.
01:07:21.080 It has all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics that your dog needs to stay healthy and even get healthy even if you think they're already.

01:07:44.080 I don't think there is.
01:08:09.080 Another moment like this in my lifetime, like what comes tomorrow with Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
01:08:17.080 This if Donald Trump plays his cards right, he is going to clean the floor with Joe Biden and not because Joe Biden is mentally incapable.
01:08:30.080 My don't believe that is.
01:08:32.080 I don't believe that we should be hanging our hat on that because they've always they juice him up before these things.
01:08:39.080 They always do.
01:08:40.080 He's not the same person he is on the campaign trail, giving speeches, whatever.
01:08:45.080 He will be sharp tomorrow.
01:08:48.080 I believe Donald Trump just needs to not fall into the trap.
01:08:55.080 They need him to fall into.
01:09:00.080 He he has got to remember that Jake Tapper and Joe Biden.
01:09:07.080 Whether they actually are colluding or not, I highly doubt.
01:09:10.080 But CNN has done it before.
01:09:14.080 It doesn't matter what they say.
01:09:17.080 This is a chance to look at all Americans, not just MAGA supporters, not people who just voted for him the first time.
01:09:23.080 All Americans.
01:09:25.080 The case that he has tomorrow that I have not seen before.
01:09:29.080 The clearest cut even more than Reagan with Jimmy Carter.
01:09:34.080 Reagan and remember, that was fairly close.
01:09:38.080 Reagan did not have the proof.
01:09:43.080 That he could do it as president.
01:09:45.080 Donald Trump does.
01:09:50.080 And it was four years ago.
01:09:52.080 People remember that they remember that as being able to afford their groceries.
01:09:57.080 You know, life was, you know, Joe Biden campaigned on a return to normalcy.
01:10:03.080 Well, really?
01:10:05.080 Is this normal?
01:10:06.080 Is any of the stuff that you've seen normal?
01:10:09.080 You not being able to afford your house or an apartment.
01:10:13.080 Sixty one percent of Americans cannot afford the rent for an apartment.
01:10:19.080 Sixty one percent.
01:10:22.080 Is that the normal you were looking for?
01:10:27.080 Because I don't believe it was.
01:10:30.080 You going in and not being able to afford groceries for your children or gas to get them to school.
01:10:37.080 Is that the normalcy that you were looking for?
01:10:41.080 This is all Donald Trump has to do.
01:10:44.080 And Donald and Joe Biden's going to try to make it about him.
01:10:48.080 And I think Joe Donald Trump needs to fight his natural instinct of defending himself, making it about him.
01:10:59.080 This is this is this election really is all the interference is about him.
01:11:08.080 But his most effective way of dealing that with that is is what he's always said over and over again.
01:11:14.080 I am only a target.
01:11:17.080 Because I'm standing in the way where they want to get to you.
01:11:23.080 I'm standing in their way to control you.
01:11:27.080 That's why I'm a target.
01:11:29.080 And I'm happy to be that target for you.
01:11:32.080 But I just want you to really understand.
01:11:35.080 The economy.
01:11:37.080 And I want to talk to people who didn't vote for me before.
01:11:41.080 You may not like me.
01:11:42.080 That's fine.
01:11:43.080 I do some things and I say some things that are crazy from time to time.
01:11:47.080 You know, I'm an entertainer.
01:11:49.080 I came from television.
01:11:50.080 OK, but I'm also a businessman.
01:11:53.080 And I want to recognize that as a businessman, no business can be done when no one has any money to buy anything.
01:12:06.080 So even the businessmen who aren't getting payoffs or in public private partnerships with this government, they all recognize that there's trouble because you can't afford to buy any of the products that you might want to buy.
01:12:25.080 And you're being forced to buy products that you don't want to buy.
01:12:29.080 Did anybody notice that?
01:12:32.080 What was it?
01:12:33.080 I don't want to say the airline because I don't remember which one it was exactly, but one of the airlines now charging a new green fuel tax.
01:12:40.080 They now have raised the prices of their flights because of green energy and green fuel that they're having to buy for their airplanes.
01:12:50.080 OK, I love the planet and clean water as much as you do.
01:12:54.080 But we have to prioritize.
01:12:57.080 And food and the well being of our people.
01:13:02.080 He's bailing out people for for student loans.
01:13:08.080 They agreed to take on.
01:13:10.080 They want they sought them out.
01:13:12.080 Nobody forced you.
01:13:13.080 It's not like a medical condition where you're like, I've got to get a college degree or I'll die.
01:13:18.080 No, they agreed.
01:13:21.080 And while they have been busy bailing them out, nobody's bailing you out.
01:13:27.080 Nobody's bailing out the average person, Republican or Democrat.
01:13:32.080 You're working, you know, for GM.
01:13:34.080 They're not bailing you out.
01:13:36.080 They'll bail GM out, but they'll bail GM out because they're forcing you to make green cars, green energy cars and electric cars that have no future.
01:13:47.080 And you know this if you're working on the assembly line, you know it.
01:13:59.080 So I want to talk to people who voted against me the first time or, you know, voted against me the second time.
01:14:08.080 I just want to have you look at the bottom line here.
01:14:12.080 Do you fear our government is going into war that we are going to be in a global war?
01:14:21.080 I have shown you my credentials.
01:14:23.080 I brought peace to the Middle East.
01:14:26.080 I brought an end to wars.
01:14:29.080 Have the wars gotten better or worse since I left?
01:14:36.080 And ask yourself that question for everything.
01:14:41.080 And then ask why have they spent so much time and money to destroy me?
01:14:47.080 Because I stand for the exact opposite of what they stand for.
01:14:53.080 I stand for you, the average American, the Democrats and the Republicans.
01:15:00.080 They say it's wrong for us to say America first.
01:15:03.080 Well, men, women and children first into the lifeboats and then get the lifeboats away from the masses that are struggling to keep their heads above water because they will overturn all of the lifeboats and everyone will be dead.
01:15:22.080 America is a lifeboat.
01:15:27.080 The people that ran the white star line had to hide the fact that it was women and children first.
01:15:34.080 Oh, and the guy from the white star line.
01:15:38.080 Because that's offensive.
01:15:41.080 Who's first the banks, the businesses or you?
01:15:48.080 Who's first the global economy, the global governance, the global mandates or America?
01:15:58.080 We are the lifeboats.
01:16:01.080 And they are swamping all of the lifeboats with what they're doing on the border.
01:16:07.080 He says that he's always this is the latest.
01:16:11.080 He always wants he's always wanted to do something about the border and secure the border.
01:16:16.080 Well, what's stopping you, Mr.
01:16:19.080 President?
01:16:20.080 Because I had it secure.
01:16:22.080 We didn't have these problems.
01:16:25.080 And again, let me ask the average voter, Republican and Democrat.
01:16:29.080 Do you feel our country is safer today from terrorists or not?
01:16:35.080 Were you safer back in 2018 than you are now?
01:16:39.080 Are your cities safer?
01:16:46.080 It's it's not a just a long series of ups and downs.
01:16:50.080 These ups and downs are being caused by policies.
01:16:56.080 And Donald Trump should say my policies, you've seen them in action.
01:17:03.080 You may not like me, but what policies did I enact?
01:17:09.080 You say it's the Supreme Court and I would not get into any of this, but you say it's the Supreme Court because these guys just judged what you can and can't do.
01:17:21.080 No, California has more abortion now than it did before Roe versus Wade was overturned.
01:17:27.080 New York, the same.
01:17:29.080 Abortions are actually up.
01:17:31.080 So he's not taking your right away.
01:17:34.080 He's saying that nobody in black robes should decide.
01:17:39.080 What you as a state and a local community do, just like I'm saying, no one should decide in government what your business has to do.
01:17:55.080 Most important thing Donald Trump needs to do tomorrow night is make sure that he makes this about the voters.
01:18:08.080 Of all sides, independents, Democrat Republicans, he has an opportunity to really enlarge the tent, but he has to be compassionate and recognize this time.
01:18:21.080 The first one was about him this time.
01:18:24.080 It's about the struggles of the people.
01:18:27.080 If he can have the compassion, which I know he has, the guy is completely different in person.
01:18:36.080 He is a good, compassionate man.
01:18:39.080 If he can come across with what I've seen in private with him, if he can not be mean, not snarky, but sad, sad for the country, sad for what people are going through.
01:18:54.080 And say, I'm not only going to protect and serve the Constitution of the United States, I will protect and serve the people of the United States.
01:19:07.080 They are first.
01:19:12.080 I think there is a historic opportunity for him to shut this down and turn the tables over.
01:19:20.080 If he can appeal like Reagan used to, if he can appeal to those Democrats that are disenfranchised, those independents that are tired of all of this stuff.
01:19:36.080 He can expand his base a great deal.
01:19:41.080 And tomorrow, I think, is the is the debate that's going to matter.
01:19:46.080 I mean, ending in a tie is not good enough.
01:19:50.080 And Jake Tapper and Joe Biden have enough of the same points of view that they can make it that.
01:20:00.080 Forget those two even exist on the stage.
01:20:04.080 You know who you are, Donald Trump.
01:20:06.080 You know who you serve the American people.
01:20:09.080 You know what your policies are.
01:20:11.080 Don't get into it with him.
01:20:13.080 Don't.
01:20:14.080 It's not worth it.
01:20:15.080 It's not worth your time.
01:20:16.080 There's 24 fact checkers from The New York Times.
01:20:19.080 Do you think they're really going to look at the facts?
01:20:21.080 No.
01:20:22.080 So don't do it.
01:20:24.080 Speak on the things that you absolutely are rock solid on.
01:20:31.080 And that's not necessarily every policy.
01:20:34.080 That's not necessarily even though you are good at the policies.
01:20:38.080 It is on the values and the principles of serving people and freeing people so they can chart their own course and build wealth again.
01:20:49.080 Just talk about the principles.
01:20:54.080 And I think you will win.
01:20:56.080 Back in just a second.
01:20:59.080 All right.
01:21:00.080 Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
01:21:03.080 It's Good Ranchers.
01:21:05.080 Good Ranchers is is there for not only our ranchers.
01:21:10.080 It is so important what is happening.
01:21:12.080 The government is, you know, with this ear tag thing.
01:21:15.080 You don't probably pay attention to this at all, because, you know, most people think we get our meat from the grocery store in styrofoam.
01:21:21.080 It they come from farms and a good portion of our meat is no longer coming from America because people like Bill Gates and the United States government are putting these small ranches out of business.
01:21:34.080 And they're tagging and making the farmers by really expensive ear tags.
01:21:39.080 We already can track wherever where all the cows are from.
01:21:43.080 We don't need the expensive RFID.
01:21:45.080 It's just another way to hurt the ranchers.
01:21:48.080 Well, good ranchers is standing up with the good ranchers of America.
01:21:52.080 And they buy all locally sourced from local ranches and they buy the meat.
01:21:59.080 And then it's the meat, the chicken, the seafood, the brats, the sausages, whatever you want.
01:22:05.080 You can get it American made and support the ranchers, support the paralyzed veterans, because every box that is sold, they also donate money to the paralyzed veterans as well.
01:22:18.080 And you in the long run are going to save a lot of money because it's going to get expensive to buy meat.
01:22:27.080 So get the best meat you can get.
01:22:30.080 Get American meat.
01:22:31.080 Do the thing that will support, especially for July 4th.
01:22:34.080 If you order one of their boxes now, you'll get free brats for a year with your subscription.
01:22:39.080 Make this independent Independence Day unforgettable with food that brings everybody together and flavors that honor the spirit of America.

01:24:51.080 I can't remember what you asked me.
01:24:53.080 Can you hold that over till the top of the hour about the debate?
01:24:56.080 I thought you had a really good question.
01:24:57.080 Let's do it.
01:24:58.080 About the debate.
01:24:59.080 We'll do that.
01:25:00.080 And also, Julian Assange.
01:25:03.080 Hmm.
01:25:05.080 My spider senses are tingling.

01:25:14.080 Coming up.
01:25:16.080 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:19.080 I want to talk to you a little bit about the Berna launcher.
01:25:26.080 The Berna launcher is really spectacular.
01:25:29.080 It is an answer for anybody that maybe doesn't feel comfortable carrying a gun.
01:25:36.080 This is something that's legal in all 50 states.
01:25:38.080 I mean, if I were in New York City or Los Angeles or Gary, Indiana, any really pretty much any place now in America, I would have a Berna launcher and I do have a Berna launcher.
01:25:48.080 In my car, if I were in New York where you couldn't carry a gun, I'd have it in my my the back of my jacket.
01:25:55.080 Because it's legal in all 50 states.
01:25:58.080 You don't have to have a permit for it.
01:26:01.080 No background checks.
01:26:02.080 Nothing.
01:26:03.080 And it stops bad guys in their tracks.
01:26:05.080 It launches kinetic rounds and then also tear gas rounds if you want or pepper spray rounds up to 60 feet away.
01:26:13.080 It'll stop people for about 45 minutes.
01:26:15.080 The Berna launcher.
01:26:17.080 My wife has it.
01:26:18.080 My kids all carry one.

01:26:56.080 And hold the right.
01:26:59.080 It's a new day.
01:27:01.080 I turn the right.
01:27:07.080 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:27:16.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:21.920 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:24.820 Well, Julian Assange is free after 12 years on the run.
01:27:29.720 I happen to agree with Julian Assange in many, many aspects.
01:27:35.020 I thought what he did was expose the dangerous truth about who we were becoming.
01:27:41.520 But it was also a national security risk, etc., etc.
01:27:44.880 So now the Biden administration and the DOJ just forgive him.
01:27:50.520 And he's free.
01:27:53.260 And all kinds of machinery went into work all across the globe to allow him now to just be free.
01:28:00.660 What? Did he exchange anything for that?
01:28:05.460 What was the cost of that freedom?
01:28:07.840 While everybody is celebrating, something doesn't feel right.
01:28:10.820 I want to talk to you about that in 60 seconds.
01:28:12.860 First, our sponsor this half hour is American Financing.
01:28:18.120 Look, I want you to call if you are worried about losing your house.
01:28:22.040 If you are worried now about your credit card debt and everything that is going on with your credit cards right now because the interest rate is so high.
01:28:32.700 I want you to consider making your mortgage work for you, OK, you've got to get out from underneath this debt and things are going to get worse.
01:28:43.900 Now, you could still be planning for a long term and setting up your financial future and getting out of debt an easy way.
01:28:52.840 And that is by calling American Financing.
01:28:55.960 Give American Financing a call.
01:28:57.520 Let one of their dedicated mortgage specialists help you examine all of the options so you don't have to walk around with all of this stress.
01:29:05.500 There are ways around it.
01:29:07.720 You still have to pay for the debt and everything else, but you don't have to pay 30 percent interest on that debt.
01:29:13.700 Your mortgage can be made to work for you.
01:29:15.980 And the average person now that calls American Financing is saving about $10,000 to $12,000 a year.
01:29:24.120 That's quite a raise.
01:29:25.980 Call American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.
01:29:34.520 NMLS 182334, NMLSConsumerAccess.org.
01:29:37.680 APR for Rates in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.
01:29:41.380 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
01:29:45.980 So many people now today are celebrating Julian Assange's release of freedom after about 12 years on the run and time spent in prison.
01:29:59.100 I'm one of those people that I'm not giddy about it, but I actually fall now closer into Julian Assange's camp because what he did release.
01:30:11.660 Some called him a free speech warrior.
01:30:15.780 Some called him a dangerous activist that put our military and national security at risk because he hacked and then published millions of documents on WikiLeaks.
01:30:27.240 So how did this happen?
01:30:29.940 Well, he just pled guilty to espionage as part of a deal with the U.S. Justice Department.
01:30:36.340 Now, I don't know if you know this, but espionage can actually carry a death penalty.
01:30:44.380 And espionage is a really big deal.
01:30:48.400 But the DOJ under Biden has just said, well, time served.
01:30:58.860 For what they've been saying is the largest espionage case in our country's history.
01:31:05.040 I just I just I just I just want an understanding.
01:31:08.200 I'm not necessarily disagreeing with Julian Assange being, you know, freed and allowed to go.
01:31:16.040 But really?
01:31:17.720 I mean, that seems very magnanimous.
01:31:22.900 And it was the Biden DOJ and Biden came out yesterday and wanted to make it very clear he had nothing to do with the deal.
01:31:29.520 He doesn't know what's on his son's laptop.
01:31:31.520 He's never been involved with his son's business.
01:31:34.180 He has no idea what the Justice Department is doing.
01:31:37.900 They had no, no information about the Mar-a-Lago thing.
01:31:42.360 They're not trying to cancel your your gas stove.
01:31:46.720 There's nothing further from the truth.
01:31:48.380 And they had nothing to do with this deal with Julian Assange.
01:31:54.240 Now, I find that hard to believe only because you would think the president of the United States, you might want him to weigh in on this.
01:32:03.700 But maybe Joe is just completely out to space and out to lunch.
01:32:09.000 And he doesn't he can't string three words together.
01:32:12.360 He's just a nice old man that doesn't understand.
01:32:15.940 Maybe, maybe.
01:32:19.820 But there was a deal made.
01:32:21.740 We know that.
01:32:23.140 And it was made in secret.
01:32:25.140 Now, this, according to The New York Times, a quote, a secret hearing.
01:32:31.240 Don't like it already.
01:32:33.120 A secret hearing paved the way for his release.
01:32:36.600 In the end, the choreographed multinational dance that led to his release took place behind closed doors at a secret bail hearing in London last Thursday, according to British officials.
01:32:52.020 Now, the Aussies were involved in this.
01:32:55.780 The British were involved in this.
01:32:58.440 The Americans were involved.
01:33:00.700 And my spider senses are tingling a bit.
01:33:03.680 Now, this morning, early, we may have gotten maybe a tip or it was a mistake, an accident.
01:33:17.540 The ex-account and wokeness noticed something odd early, early this morning while you were asleep.
01:33:27.700 All 20,000 leaked DNC emails have just been removed from WikiLeaks.
01:33:34.740 Huh.
01:33:40.880 Now, they say this is and wokeness that this is part of the deal with Biden's DOJ and everything now makes sense.
01:33:48.820 Well, I don't know if that's true.
01:33:51.520 My team did verify that while other hack archives on WikiLeaks are still up, including Hillary Clinton's emails, when you click on the DNC archive, it does produce a server error or error.
01:34:07.500 OK.
01:34:09.020 They're all gone.
01:34:10.540 That's odd.
01:34:11.220 But maybe it just is a server error.
01:34:14.000 Is this proof the DOJ coerced to Sange to cover up their embarrassing secrets in exchange for him is freedom?
01:34:22.800 No.
01:34:23.960 Today, it's a server error.
01:34:27.180 Now, I've had server errors before.
01:34:31.600 And my company can fix them pretty quickly.
01:34:37.100 So, is this just a server error that's going to be fixed and all of those will be returned?
01:34:44.000 And we asked WikiLeaks to confirm if this was just a technical glitch or more evidence of a politically motivated and corrupt DOJ.
01:34:54.320 We'll let you know if they come back to us with a response.
01:34:58.140 But my gut says something very dirty happened here and we'll never actually know what happened in that secret meeting.
01:35:06.380 Unless.
01:35:08.460 Somebody from WikiLeaks gets their hands on some more documents.
01:35:12.420 Then maybe we will know.
01:35:14.000 Wouldn't it be nice to be able to trust law enforcement officials?
01:35:20.840 To be in it for the law and not for themselves or for their cronies?
01:35:26.120 Wouldn't it be nice?
01:35:27.420 I'd like that.
01:35:28.480 I'd like that on both sides.
01:35:29.700 I'd like that not to happen with the Republicans.
01:35:31.540 I'd like that not to happen with the Democrats.
01:35:33.100 But maybe, maybe that's too much to hope for.
01:35:38.020 But we'll find out starting with the debate tomorrow night.
01:35:41.920 There are some, by the way, reports that some of those emails have been taken down.
01:35:48.240 The DNC emails.
01:35:50.980 So I don't know if that's part of this.
01:35:52.680 I, you know, again, I'm not necessarily going to go to.
01:35:55.040 I mean, I think if I go to WikiLeaks, I'll have federal agents at my door tomorrow.
01:36:00.220 So I'm not, I'll let your other employees check that out for you.
01:36:03.000 But yeah, they already have.
01:36:04.900 They already have.
01:36:05.500 They are down.
01:36:06.360 They are down now.
01:36:06.960 Okay.
01:36:07.500 I thought you thought you said those were still up.
01:36:09.180 My mistake.
01:36:10.120 By the way, I'm the debate.
01:36:11.380 Hillary Clinton's Hillary.
01:36:13.240 We're right.
01:36:14.420 That's what I was saying.
01:36:15.420 There are reports now that those have been taken down.
01:36:17.540 Oh.
01:36:17.940 So that'll be, who knows?
01:36:20.300 Okay.
01:36:20.520 That holds up.
01:36:22.080 We will see.
01:36:22.460 Okay.
01:36:22.840 That's interesting.
01:36:23.640 Question on the debate, though.
01:36:24.460 You mentioned this.
01:36:25.620 And, you know, a lot of the coverage has been a little weird of the WikiLeaks thing.
01:36:29.500 And the WikiLeaks thing has really switched over the years, right?
01:36:32.740 Like, it was really conservatives at the beginning who were opposed to him.
01:36:37.200 Yes.
01:36:37.580 Liberals loved the guy because Bush was president.
01:36:39.960 Over time, that's really sort of changed.
01:36:41.920 Right now, you know, Assange seems to be getting relatively positive press coverage.
01:36:46.840 And as you've pointed out many, many times, you know, watch the other hand.
01:36:50.220 Yes.
01:36:50.440 What else is going on in these situations?
01:36:52.740 You've trained us all to think this way.
01:36:55.600 And I was watching with the debate, and I had a question because I'm doing a show on
01:36:58.340 Studios America tonight on expectations for this debate and focusing on, like, are Biden's
01:37:05.760 expectations too low and all of these things.
01:37:08.120 And one question keeps popping into my mind, and I just don't have the right answer on
01:37:12.020 it yet.
01:37:12.440 I don't know.
01:37:13.240 I don't know what it is.
01:37:14.200 And I think that you, maybe you do.
01:37:16.080 Let me ask you this.
01:37:18.340 We're leading up to this debate.
01:37:20.400 Trump is saying, has been, you know, everyone's been saying for a very long time, Trump has
01:37:27.280 an advantage over Biden here.
01:37:29.220 He's, he, you know, Biden is bumbling and incoherent and all of these things.
01:37:34.780 This is what the right has been saying, and there's been criticism as to whether you should
01:37:38.500 try to lower expectations about that.
01:37:40.140 But, like, you can see that would be the obvious goal of Biden here, right?
01:37:45.320 Like, he wants to go into this debate looking like he, he's just, I don't know.
01:37:51.840 I mean, who knows if he's going to be, Donald Trump's a wrecking ball, and I don't know if
01:37:55.580 he'll be able to be amidst his debate.
01:37:57.080 You know, that's what you do before a debate.
01:37:59.880 You lower your expectations, you raise the other person's expectations, and hopefully
01:38:03.420 you can outdo those expectations.
01:38:06.800 But there has been, Glenn, non-stop coverage from the mainstream media on one specific thing
01:38:14.280 leading up to this debate, which is how intensely Joe Biden has been preparing for it.
01:38:21.040 Like, he is, um, he's got every aid around him, he's doing debate after debate after debate,
01:38:28.260 intense policy preparation, he's doing all of the stuff, and with Donald Trump, it's like,
01:38:35.180 oh, he's at a rally, he's not even doing any mock debates, he's barely, and he's doing some,
01:38:39.560 you know, policy stuff, but that's about it.
01:38:41.120 But with Biden, it's like raising expectations as if this man is going to be the sharpest man
01:38:47.040 you've ever seen, this is the best that Joe Biden can possibly do, because he's done all
01:38:53.360 of this prep leading up to this debate.
01:38:55.940 Why would the mainstream media be framing this in this way?
01:38:59.740 Well, I mean, I hate to go back to our bet, um, but I do think that this was planned this
01:39:14.880 early, um, to, uh, give an opportunity for him to succeed or fail disastrously, and then
01:39:25.420 having to, uh, replace him.
01:39:28.360 I think there is a chance of that, but there's also, uh, an equal chance perhaps that it's
01:39:36.340 not a, some conspiracy or anything else.
01:39:38.740 It is just doing the old playbook of the president is, um, in, you know, really in touch with the
01:39:46.800 facts and he's working hard to make it look, I mean, he might be sipping Jell-O right now,
01:39:52.240 we don't know, um, but to make him look vigorous, he's doing all of this stuff at Camp David.
01:39:59.440 He might be sleeping the whole time.
01:40:01.280 I don't know, but that's what you want to say.
01:40:04.620 That's what they said about Jimmy Carter, that he was at Camp David preparing for his
01:40:08.500 debates with Ronald Reagan.
01:40:10.180 And what happened?
01:40:12.860 This is why I gave the advice to Donald Trump that I just did a little while ago.
01:40:18.340 And that is, um, make it about the things that, you know, make it about our principles.
01:40:27.340 Don't make it about the facts and figures.
01:40:30.140 Jimmy Carter came in and he was a wonky guy and he could remember the farm bill and all
01:40:37.600 the details of the farm bill and this and that where Reagan at first was being told by all
01:40:44.280 the advisors, make sure you know this, you know, this, you know, this, and they said
01:40:49.720 to Ronald Reagan, which should be said to Donald Trump, let Reagan be Reagan, let Trump be Trump.
01:40:58.440 And it was Roger Ailes who said to him, look, you're Mr.
01:41:03.280 Reagan at the time, you, uh, you're, that's not why people like you.
01:41:11.320 They don't come to you for, you know, all the facts and figures.
01:41:14.840 They come to you because of your vision and your ideals.
01:41:19.640 You maybe believe in five different things, but those five things will answer the farm bill.
01:41:27.200 You believe in farmers and that farmers should be set free and they shouldn't have the government
01:41:33.880 breathing down their neck.
01:41:35.340 And if you get a foot off of the neck of our farmers, that they're going to be able to find
01:41:41.140 a way because they're the hardest working Americans out there.
01:41:46.480 Talk about that if he brings up the farm bill.
01:41:50.080 So if it is the old strategy of Joe Biden having all the facts and figures to try to make
01:41:56.520 Donald Trump look like he doesn't know what's going on, Donald Trump should stand on that.
01:42:02.940 Look, he's, he's making it all about numbers.
01:42:05.640 Okay.
01:42:06.880 Here's the number you need to care about.
01:42:08.540 Are you better off than you were when I was president?
01:42:11.600 Are you better off right now?
01:42:12.840 You're paying lower gas prices.
01:42:14.340 Do you feel safer?
01:42:15.720 How's, how's, how's your personal economy going?
01:42:19.100 Do you feel more confident that next year is going to be good if he wins?
01:42:24.000 That's the only numbers I really care about.
01:42:26.520 Because I work for you.
01:42:29.920 But let me tell you about the vision for America and what America first really means.
01:42:37.880 That is the home run.
01:42:40.480 And it will make Biden look maybe competent, but unrelatable.
01:42:47.800 Nobody is going to sit there and listen to a guy who, A, has his record.
01:42:54.040 And I don't think Trump needs to keep pointing it out other than how much is your gas right now?
01:42:59.660 Let's talk about green energy.
01:43:01.440 You oppose the green energy bill.
01:43:03.800 And would you pull us out of the Paris Accords?
01:43:05.840 Yeah, in a heartbeat.
01:43:06.960 Let me ask you, how much did you, the American viewer, how much did you pay for gas today, yesterday, the day before?
01:43:14.760 How much, how much do you believe that the future is going to be cars run on batteries?
01:43:24.860 Did you know we spend, I don't know how many billions of dollars to create a whole system of chargers all across the country?
01:43:32.560 We have six as of, no, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was updated early last week, I forgot.
01:43:38.800 We now have seven chargers for something that cost us billions of dollars, and they won't be installed until 2030, if then.
01:43:49.100 Do you have confidence in the government, or do you have confidence in yourself and your neighbors and your community?
01:43:54.820 That's what Donald Trump has to do.
01:43:58.540 And unless they're setting Joe Biden up for a failure to replace him with God only knows who, maybe they're just playing the old game.
01:44:09.780 But the people will see through it.
01:44:12.080 I think that explanation makes sense at most times, right?
01:44:16.600 They've been trying this thing where they say, well, yes, Joe Biden looks like a bumbling fool when you see him on camera.
01:44:23.680 But when he's off camera, he's incredible.
01:44:26.840 He's amazing.
01:44:28.080 I don't know if he's just allergic to the camera or what, but when you can't see him, he's incredible.
01:44:34.520 But that doesn't necessarily work as a preview to a debate when you have an ending to it.
01:44:41.480 So, okay, hang on, let me get your opinion on it here in a sec.
01:44:44.320 Let me just break for 60 seconds and I want to get your opinion on it.
01:44:47.920 When was the last time you cleaned out the gutters on your house?
01:44:50.920 Yeah, I know, I forgot I even had gutters.
01:44:53.680 It has gutters and you got to clean them out.
01:44:56.240 Otherwise, you're going to have a problem with your foundation.

01:45:01.420 Here's a better solution than getting up on the ladder.
01:45:04.140 Have your son do it.
01:45:05.400 Okay, that's why I had, you know, that's why I have children.
01:45:08.640 But if you want to, you know, like I don't want to use my son for all of the chores, the dangerous ones.
01:45:14.260 Okay, whatever.

01:46:05.080 Station ID.
01:46:05.520 So what conclusion do you draw from that, Stu?
01:46:18.700 I don't know that I have the right answer.
01:46:20.400 I think there's something to the idea that perhaps the group of people inside the Democratic Party who are looking for a potential replacement
01:46:33.740 are leaking this to the media, trying to build expectations that he's very, very prepared.
01:46:39.500 And if it goes poorly, they have that ripcord.
01:46:43.380 Yeah, that makes sense.
01:46:44.400 Kind of makes sense to me, but I don't know that that's right.
01:46:49.120 I just, you know, the whole part of me also thinks the reason they scheduled this early, this debate this early,
01:46:55.980 is just because of the amount of time that will go by for people to forget it.
01:47:00.500 I mean, we're going to be, we're going to have this debate tomorrow and then in a week beyond July 4th, you know, break.
01:47:08.780 And there's plenty of months to go.
01:47:11.260 There's only one reason to do the debates this early.
01:47:15.340 A, and they're all the same, A, let, give people enough time to forget about it if it's bad.
01:47:26.380 If it's really, really bad, give us time to replace him.
01:47:31.180 All of these things that you don't do a debate before a convention.
01:47:36.980 The other reason is, well, because we don't know if he's bad now, can you imagine what he's going to be like in six months?
01:47:43.300 Okay, and that's a real possibility as well.
01:47:45.820 But they're all, none of those things are good.
01:47:48.800 You can't come up with a good reason why he wanted to debate now instead of in the fall.
01:47:54.420 So I think you have to put some eggs in the basket of, yeah, there are people that want to replace him.
01:48:00.620 And this may be the opportunity.
01:48:08.260 There is really something frustrating about knowing that you need to get a good solid night's sleep, and yet you're completely unable to do it.
01:48:19.080 Lots of things can make it hard to fall asleep and stay asleep.
01:48:22.160 Stress from the day, relentless thoughts from a restless mind.
01:48:25.620 If that's happening to you and it's happening regularly, that's worse.
01:48:31.100 If you have problems falling asleep, you can go to the doctor and you can get a prescription for Ambien, which, I mean, good luck.
01:48:38.160 If you want to be driving to the grocery store at 3 a.m. in the morning, you know, naked, you just don't know what you're going to do on Ambien.
01:48:44.940 Really dangerous stuff.
01:48:46.880 Or you could do it the natural way.
01:48:49.000 This is where Z Factor can really help.
01:48:51.620 It's from the makers of Relief Factor.

01:49:29.400 Tonight, I'm going to explain the economy.
01:49:56.040 Explain not just the economy, what's happening to our country, the fundamental transformation.
01:50:03.160 Our whole economic system is now based on massive debt, but neither the Republicans or Democrats seem to care to do anything about it.
01:50:12.640 All the experts say that the new target for inflation, the target should be 3%.
01:50:18.440 That means you lose three cents on every dollar, you know, every single year.
01:50:24.660 That adds up pretty quickly.
01:50:26.000 You've already lost 24 cents on every dollar that you had in 2020, if you still have that dollar.
01:50:31.820 Food, gas, energy becoming scarce because we're being priced out, and they're making things more scarce.
01:50:40.860 In the middle of all this, nobody is really even talking about actually fixing our border in immigration.
01:50:48.400 We're selling farmland, and even public lands are being sold to foreign countries.
01:50:57.580 It is a theft of a nation.
01:51:00.920 The middle class is now on life support.
01:51:03.440 So why is all this happening?
01:51:06.800 Why?
01:51:07.900 And can it all be tied together?
01:51:11.620 And what do you need to know so you're not a victim?
01:51:15.100 Tonight, Wednesday night special, 9 p.m. on Blaze TV, and then tomorrow on my YouTube channel,
01:51:21.440 American elites have built a caste system for you.
01:51:25.340 That's tonight, Blaze TV, 9 p.m.
01:51:30.320 All right.
01:51:32.080 You know, the debate is happening tomorrow, and all Donald Trump has to do is just quickly
01:51:39.320 don't dwell on them.
01:51:42.160 The failures just continue.
01:51:44.440 I mean, war.
01:51:45.640 I had the Middle East all sewed up.
01:51:47.760 He's got it into war.
01:51:49.100 His solution is to build a big Gaza float, a big floatie out there, and it doesn't work.
01:51:58.100 It's a disaster.
01:52:00.180 I mean, because everything this guy has touched is a disaster.
01:52:06.080 I actually think the Gaza Pier is a perfect microcosm of his entire presidency and every
01:52:12.420 one of his policies.
01:52:13.900 Yeah.
01:52:14.240 I agree.
01:52:15.140 The Pier is so fascinating because it hits every little aspect of one of these Biden
01:52:22.620 proposals and how it works out.
01:52:24.300 It starts with these sort of supposed good intentions, the good, warm feelings, right?
01:52:31.440 Like, he's going to save these people.
01:52:33.300 He's going to bring in—it's not the evil Jews.
01:52:36.700 He's instead going to go help these people.
01:52:39.380 He's going to—he cares so much about the Gazans that he's going to build a pier, and
01:52:46.080 he's going to get them all this aid, and it's not enough.
01:52:49.600 Of course, the Jews should do more, but still, it's incredibly impressive what he's trying
01:52:54.640 to do.
01:52:54.940 And then you get the gushingly positive media coverage, right?
01:52:59.880 Like, not only the caring reasons and all these incredible—the heart of Joe Biden, but
01:53:07.200 also the sort of innovative and novel approach.
01:53:12.360 Look at this approach.
01:53:13.580 He came up with a pier.
01:53:15.760 This is incredible.
01:53:17.240 And really doing what our military is meant to do, and that is just to serve the people
01:53:22.100 and feed them.
01:53:22.880 Yes.
01:53:23.360 Help.
01:53:23.460 You know, to help, not to kill, not to kill, but to help.
01:53:26.920 Now, every one of these proposals that follows this timeline also includes some legalistic
01:53:34.060 rule bending, right?
01:53:35.620 Because, of course, in reality, you know, you can't actually just give away all this money
01:53:41.580 for student loans, for example, right?
01:53:43.560 You have to come up with some, well, there was a bill that Bush passed for military citizens
01:53:50.320 back in 2005, and we're just going to use that and expand it to 1,000 times its size.
01:53:57.200 Like, there's always some legalized rule bending.
01:53:59.040 Here, it's they promised and promised and promised and promised no boots on the ground.
01:54:05.960 Over and over.
01:54:06.640 We are not going to put any boots on the ground.
01:54:08.860 We're not going to do that.
01:54:09.400 That's a red line.
01:54:10.220 There's no way we're going to do that.
01:54:11.740 So what we're going to do is put boats on a pier 50 feet from the ground.
01:54:17.700 That's, we sweat, they're floating.
01:54:21.720 The feet in the boots are floating.
01:54:24.680 So we're totally justified here.
01:54:25.960 No, you don't even need boots.
01:54:26.960 You should dip your toes in the water.
01:54:28.980 We recommend that.
01:54:29.940 You don't even have boots.
01:54:31.040 That's the next one.
01:54:31.960 You don't even have boots.
01:54:32.840 These soldiers are in sneakers.
01:54:34.480 What are you talking about?
01:54:35.560 We've all given them, we've given them sneakers to go on the soil.
01:54:39.260 But like, again, like they're always trying to come up with some crazy justification for
01:54:43.780 these things.
01:54:44.280 And it's always some legalistic thing that doesn't actually make sense.
01:54:47.240 Everyone knows is false, but like, we're all just accepting this with the pier, right?
01:54:51.700 Oh, you're not going to get involved.
01:54:52.780 You're not going to put our soldiers on the ground there.
01:54:54.820 Okay.
01:54:55.280 But they can just sit, you know, 10 feet offshore.
01:54:58.280 And while they're touching equipment, the people on the ground are also touching equipment.
01:55:05.820 The same piece of equipment as it rolls out, we're touching one side, they're touching
01:55:09.600 the other, but that doesn't count as boots on the ground to this particular administration.
01:55:13.440 Then, of course, Glenn, you get it massively expensive and way over budget.
01:55:20.860 Two hundred and thirty million dollars that we know of just to build the pier that obviously
01:55:28.700 was never going to solve the problem anyway.
01:55:31.220 That's a whole other aspect.
01:55:33.440 Now, it could have, but they didn't calculate for waves.
01:55:36.420 Right.
01:55:36.680 Which is something you should calculate for when building something on an ocean.
01:55:43.080 No, not, not.
01:55:44.160 It's not an ocean.
01:55:45.100 It's the Mediterranean Sea.
01:55:46.580 And that's very different.
01:55:48.080 It's true.
01:55:48.540 And they expected it to be smooth as glass.
01:55:51.980 And the Navy, you know, this is a naval project.
01:55:54.480 They know this is completely unexpected.
01:55:57.640 Yeah.
01:55:58.120 And of course, they'll blame them as well.
01:55:59.900 But, you know, massively expensive, massively over budget, costing way too much for what
01:56:05.520 it even could theoretically do.
01:56:07.320 But then you get to the next step, which, of course, is it's immediately shown to doing
01:56:11.220 to be doing much less good than was ever promised.
01:56:15.520 Right.
01:56:16.640 Immediately.
01:56:17.380 The first estimate of how much aid got to the Gazans was literally zero.
01:56:25.120 No aid had gotten to the Gazans.
01:56:27.840 They were, when they did get ships off of this pier, they were being intercepted by
01:56:33.260 gun-toting terrorists on the way.
01:56:37.420 So none.
01:56:38.360 Were they Gazans?
01:56:39.400 Were they Gazans?
01:56:40.380 Were they Gazans?
01:56:41.140 I mean, if they're terrorists, they must be Jews.
01:56:43.200 No?
01:56:43.880 I mean, I think that's how this government at this point is operating.
01:56:47.660 Okay.
01:56:48.100 Yeah.
01:56:48.320 You can make a good point.
01:56:49.740 It's the Jamal Bowman thesis.
01:56:51.820 But I mean, at some level, it is pretty impressive that they continue to do this.
01:56:55.280 And, like, you know, the failures are massive.
01:56:58.240 Amazing.
01:56:58.660 They were supposed to get two million meals a day off of this pier.
01:57:02.580 Now, at no point was that ever moderately realistic.
01:57:08.580 It was never going to happen at any time.
01:57:11.560 However, they have not even come close to doing two million meals on any day.
01:57:17.620 At no point did they come close to two million.
01:57:19.900 Two hundred and fifty meals.
01:57:22.220 I would not.
01:57:23.720 I mean, again, the initial in congressional testimony, the initial estimate was zero.
01:57:29.580 Now, they're now counting meals just getting off the pier.
01:57:33.240 That's their new metric.
01:57:34.440 Oh, it's just, well, we got these meals off the pier.
01:57:36.300 We handed them to them.
01:57:37.240 Who knows what happens after that?
01:57:39.080 That's their new measure of success.
01:57:40.800 But wait, that was the whole reason to build the pier.
01:57:43.800 So you knew who it was going to.
01:57:45.620 Right.
01:57:45.720 It wouldn't fall in the hands of the terrorists.
01:57:48.080 And, of course, they do know who it's going to.
01:57:50.260 And, shockingly enough, a lot of times it is terrorists.
01:57:52.520 And there's not always the Venn diagram of the Palestinians and the terrorists.
01:58:00.960 There's a bit of an overlap.
01:58:02.700 I don't know if anyone's noticed this.
01:58:04.140 Huh.
01:58:04.680 Yeah.
01:58:05.440 But not full.
01:58:07.160 So maybe we're targeting, I don't know, the very small percentage of people who weren't cheering on October 7th.
01:58:13.160 But those people are not the ones getting the food.
01:58:17.060 So it's not working at all.
01:58:19.880 Then we get to the next step here, which is the pier is literally crumbling into pieces.
01:58:25.640 In front of our eyes, it's breaking apart.
01:58:28.840 It is a catastrophe.
01:58:30.940 They didn't plan for waves, as you pointed out, Glenn.
01:58:34.040 And they are saying now the entire pier feels like it is a bunch of metal Legos that are pieced together and constantly smashing into each other as the waves come in.
01:58:45.620 Do you, at any point in this scenario, think of, and I don't know why, it's unreasonable to do it, but feel like we've become the old Soviet Union?
01:58:54.880 Gosh, it does feel, that's exactly, this is exactly the type of crap they did, right?
01:59:00.660 They'd have these big, high-minded initiatives.
01:59:03.320 They would fail miserably.
01:59:05.040 No one would ever be held accountable for the failure.
01:59:07.820 I mean, I bring this up again to you, my friend, Glenn, and I know you hate, despise this point, but I'm going to say it again.
01:59:14.500 Again, $230 million.
01:59:17.940 Every April 15th, you will pay taxes for your entire life and not make enough money and pay enough money into this government to pay for one of the metal Legos on this freaking Gaza pier.
01:59:30.260 All your efforts for your entire life will not cover one of these metal Legos they're putting together in Gaza so they can give money, or at least a valuable aid, to terrorists.
01:59:46.340 Like, this is how incomprehensible this crap is and why it should never, ever happen.
01:59:51.940 And then we are just getting to this point now because they've already had to shut down the pier for 18 full days where nothing happened and no one could go on it because it was so unstable.
02:00:06.640 They've now shut it down for 18 days in various days whenever the weather gets bad.
02:00:12.340 They're bragging about that, by the way.
02:00:14.000 We can see the weather coming, so we can shut down the pier whenever needed.
02:00:17.460 Oh, great.
02:00:18.540 Wow.
02:00:19.020 Now they're finally acknowledging that this is not going to work, that this is going to be a failure.
02:00:24.280 We're going to have to take it down, and there will never be any accountability for the failure, and they will just, the media will pick it up and say,
02:00:34.120 the problem was just that method.
02:00:37.920 We need to find another way to do the same thing, and these Republicans are opposing that.
02:00:44.160 So, all this whole story leads to the evil conservatives are the bad guys.
02:00:50.260 You know what's really weird is, I think we, because there was a big war, I'm just telling you a fantasy story here.
02:00:57.560 Okay.
02:00:57.800 There was a big war a long, long time ago in Europe, and it destroyed almost everything.
02:01:03.180 And there was a place in this little hamlet of a country named Germany that the Americans couldn't go, but the people were starving to death.
02:01:15.040 But if we crossed that line, we would then probably start another war with our allies.
02:01:22.440 And so, we couldn't cross over and put any boots on the ground.
02:01:27.520 And we promised we wouldn't put any boots on the ground.
02:01:30.420 And there were a lot of really bad guys, terrorists and everything else, that were there on the ground.
02:01:36.200 And so, we devised this plan.
02:01:38.540 Now, this is going to sound all old-timey.
02:01:40.440 But we devised a way to just drop food from the sky.
02:01:46.540 What?
02:01:47.600 Yeah.
02:01:48.380 And then, you know, sometimes the bad guys, Germans, Russians, whatever, sometimes they got it.
02:01:54.380 But most of the time, because it was such an overwhelming supply, it got to the right people.
02:01:59.880 And we saved all those people from starving.
02:02:02.260 Now, we can't do that, of course, because...
02:02:06.080 Well, I don't think I need to go into all of the details on why we couldn't do that again, but we can't.
02:02:14.280 But it's so much better to put ships just off the coast where they have terrorist boats and build something that absolutely had no chance of working from the beginning, spending a lot of money, and not helping the starving people.
02:02:31.760 Yeah.
02:02:31.940 It's so much better.
02:02:32.960 So much better.
02:02:33.560 We should point out that the people they were trying to help are firing missiles at the pier.
02:02:38.060 That's a whole other aspect of this, but that's part of this as well.
02:02:40.640 We didn't do that.
02:02:41.760 No.
02:02:41.960 We didn't do that back in this storytime war.
02:02:47.320 We didn't.
02:02:48.780 All right.
02:02:49.120 Back in just a second.
02:02:50.180 First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
02:02:53.700 It is Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
02:02:55.560 I want you to meet an American hero.
02:02:57.260 It's U.S. Army Major Jonathan Turnbull.
02:02:59.900 During a tour of duty, Major Turnbull was severely injured during an attack from an ISIS suicide bomber.
02:03:05.660 Left eye completely lost.
02:03:07.640 His right was punctured after more than 20 surgeries and countless hours of painful rehabilitation.
02:03:13.620 Thank God he's still alive and well, but his life was completely changed.
02:03:18.080 That's where the Tunnel to Towers Foundation paid off his mortgage, gave him a specially adapted smart home designed specifically for his needs.
02:03:27.300 Now he can move around his home more easily now.
02:03:29.820 Peace of mind that he should have.
02:03:33.780 And all of our veterans should have after they come back and defending our country at such a high cost.
02:03:40.100 But we have veterans that are homeless.
02:03:43.440 We don't give them hotels in New York.
02:03:45.320 No, we give illegals, but we won't give our veterans a hotel in New York.
02:03:49.960 Can't do that for some reason.
02:03:52.620 That's why Tunnel to Towers is here, because the government never does the right thing, in my opinion.
02:03:56.680 Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
02:04:00.580 Leave the work up to the people who actually care and can make a difference.
02:04:04.740 Tunnel to Towers, T2T.org.
02:04:08.040 Would you help our veterans in so many different ways and help America never forget the cost of freedom?
02:04:17.360 It's $11 a month I'd like to ask you for, but if you can do just, you know, one month, that would be fine as well.
02:04:23.020 Ninety-five cents of every dollar goes directly to these programs.
02:04:27.740 It's T2T.org.
02:04:31.580 The previous content identified as a rant.
02:04:35.800 You're welcome, or we're sorry.
02:04:38.700 The Glenn Beck Program.
02:04:40.680 We'll be right back.
02:04:42.280 So coming up on Saturday, this Saturday, wherever you get your podcasts,
02:05:10.600 go to my feed and look for episode number four of The Beck Story.
02:05:16.000 It is my new Backstory History podcast series.
02:05:20.140 This season, we are doing, I think, eight episodes, and it all is about the experts.
02:05:28.660 How did we get here?
02:05:30.420 How are we listening to these experts who are constantly steering us wrong, and yet they don't have any accountability,
02:05:40.160 and we just put up with it?
02:05:42.660 How did that happen?
02:05:44.440 So episode number four takes a deep dive into the American education.
02:05:49.100 We knew, as founders, we knew that the success of the republic depended on having an educated, engaged citizen,
02:05:58.920 but they couldn't have imagined how the U.S. education system would morph into something that de-emphasized reading, writing,
02:06:07.600 and arithmetic, and biblical values, to the progressive-dominated system today that's hyper-focused on identity politics
02:06:15.440 and radical left-wing agendas, and it's crazy.
02:06:19.140 How did we get here?
02:06:21.060 Well, we start with the early progressives, the early 1900 college professor named John Dewey.
02:06:28.000 The first season of the Backstory.
02:06:32.420 Progressivism, how it developed a cult of expertise, and how this obsession continues to drive the left-wing quest for control.
02:06:41.480 All of these episodes get to the root of what's really happening in America and how to fix it.
02:06:47.060 Don't miss episodes one, two, and three of the Backstory, available now.
02:06:50.160 Episode four, this Saturday, wherever you get your podcasts.
02:06:58.000 The Glenn Beck Program.
