Transcript

00:00:00.000 This winter, take a trip to Tampa on Porter Airlines.
00:00:05.400 Enjoy the warm Tampa Bay temperatures and warm Porter hospitality on your way there.
00:00:11.360 All Porter fares include beer, wine, and snacks, and free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi on planes with no middle seats.
00:00:18.780 And your Tampa Bay vacation includes good times, relaxation, and great Gulf Coast weather.
00:00:25.160 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.
00:00:30.000 So let me talk to you a little bit about pre-born.
00:00:32.040 We learned, if we learned anything from this election, we learned how important it is for us to fight, fight, fight.
00:00:37.980 We learned also how desperately the left wants to fight to take babies and kill them,
00:00:45.540 which is why every day Pre-Born Ministries fights for those babies and those moms.
00:00:51.520 Pre-Born's network of clinics is positioned to the highest abortion areas,
00:00:55.620 and they are fighting for moms who are deciding between life and death for their unborn children.
00:01:00.000 By introducing a mom to her child on a free ultrasound, they double the chances that the mother is going to choose life.
00:01:06.440 Then they show those babies and their mothers God's love by providing additional assistance for up to two years.
00:01:13.780 So when those on the left shout abortion, we have to shout life, but we have to put it into action.
00:01:20.340 If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?
00:01:24.740 Your tax-deductible donation of $15,000 will place an ultrasound machine in a needy woman's center,
00:01:33.380 saving countless babies for years to come.
00:01:35.880 To donate, hit pound 250.
00:01:38.320 Say the keyword baby.
00:01:39.380 That's pound 250, keyword baby.

00:03:11.600 Let's go through them one by one, shall we?
00:03:13.960 And his vow to now close down the Secretary, sorry, the Department of Education.
00:03:21.940 That's good news.
00:03:24.940 I believe it will happen.

00:04:31.240 Hello, Stu. How are you?
00:04:32.760 Very well, Glenn.
00:04:33.880 Exciting things happening.
00:04:35.160 Exciting things, right?
00:04:36.840 Yeah.
00:04:37.280 I mean, shutting down the Department of Education?
00:04:39.520 No, you don't believe that.
00:04:41.640 Well, I mean, I don't – I'm skeptical whether it will actually occur.
00:04:46.480 I am excited about the prospect of a president who actually wants it to happen.
00:04:51.000 I feel like it's been – we haven't heard that really since Reagan.
00:04:53.880 So I'm excited about that.
00:04:55.500 But, of course, Reagan famously did not actually achieve this goal.
00:04:59.140 Of course.
00:04:59.620 Of course.
00:05:00.380 Reagan also said that he was going to make Jerusalem the capital of Israel.
00:05:10.080 Exactly.
00:05:10.660 And he didn't do that.
00:05:11.440 I will also say one of the central parts of education policy for Republicans for as long
00:05:15.940 as I've been aware of politics have been the idea of, you know, school choice.
00:05:23.300 And nothing ever happened until the past couple years.
00:05:27.720 Right?
00:05:28.300 Like, now we've come further on school choice than at any other point in my lifetime.
00:05:33.440 Yep.
00:05:33.620 I'm really excited about that.
00:05:35.400 I think his appointments around this area will be really interesting.
00:05:39.000 So here's what he has said.
00:05:40.600 First, let's start with his plan to overhaul leftist colleges.
00:05:44.540 Cut five.
00:05:46.180 Tuition costs at colleges and universities have been exploding.
00:05:50.660 And I mean absolutely exploding.
00:05:53.680 While academics have been obsessed with indoctrinating America's youth,
00:05:58.440 the time has come to reclaim our once great educational institutions from the radical left,
00:06:04.580 and we will do that.
00:06:05.980 Our secret weapon will be the college accreditation system.
00:06:10.800 It's called accreditation for a reason.
00:06:13.940 The accreditors are supposed to ensure that schools are not ripping off students and taxpayers,
00:06:19.940 but they have failed totally.
00:06:21.500 When I return to the White House, I will fire the radical left accreditors that have allowed
00:06:26.500 our colleges to become dominated by Marxists, maniacs, and lunatics.
00:06:32.840 We will then accept applications for new accreditors who will impose real standards on colleges
00:06:39.460 once again and once and for all.
00:06:42.580 These standards will include defending the American tradition and Western civilization,
00:06:47.440 protecting free speech, eliminating wasteful administrative positions that drive up costs
00:06:53.840 incredibly, removing all Marxist diversity, equity, and inclusion bureaucrats,
00:07:00.500 offering options for accelerated and low-cost degrees, providing meaningful job placement
00:07:06.920 and career services, and implementing college entrance and exit exams to prove that students
00:07:13.080 are actually learning and getting their money's worth.
00:07:16.360 Furthermore, I will direct the Department of Justice to pursue federal civil rights cases
00:07:21.560 against schools that continue to engage in racial discrimination,
00:07:26.420 and schools that persist in explicit, unlawful discrimination under the guise of equity
00:07:32.640 will not only have their endowments taxed, but through budget reconciliation,
00:07:38.620 I will advance a measure to have them fined up to the entire amount of their endowment.
00:07:44.940 Oh, my.
00:07:45.420 A portion of the seized funds will then be used as restitution for victims of these illegal
00:07:50.500 and unjust policies, policies that hurt our country so badly.
00:07:55.940 Colleges have gotten hundreds of billions of dollars from hardworking taxpayers,
00:08:00.320 and now we are going to get this anti-American insanity out of our institutions once and for all.
00:08:08.020 We are going to have real education in America.
00:08:12.100 Oh, yeah.
00:08:16.380 Again, we need some porn music for this stuff.
00:08:18.980 I mean, this is just, oh, say it again, Donald.
00:08:23.100 That is a very, very clear, I think.
00:08:27.580 Yes.
00:08:28.060 The clearest I have, I've heard him, and the most passionate that I have heard him.
00:08:34.420 These are not campaign promises.
00:08:36.720 He doesn't need to make these promises anymore.
00:08:39.880 These are, here's what we're doing right now.
00:08:43.720 And one other thing I'll be doing very early in the administration is closing up the Department of Education in Washington, D.C.
00:08:57.940 and sending all education and education, work and needs back to the states.
00:09:04.200 We want them to run the education of our children because they'll do a much better job of it.
00:09:10.540 You can't do worse.
00:09:11.620 We spend more money per pupil by three times than any other nation, and yet we're absolutely at the bottom.
00:09:21.580 We're one of the worst.
00:09:23.180 So you can't do worse.
00:09:24.240 We're going to end education coming out of Washington, D.C.
00:09:28.700 We're going to close it up, all those buildings all over the place, and yet people that in many cases hate our children,
00:09:35.320 we're going to send it all back to the states.
00:09:39.900 Again.
00:09:41.540 Oh, yeah.
00:09:43.460 Love that.
00:09:44.860 I think that is really exciting.
00:09:47.920 Now, do you think he won't do it, or do you think he won't be able to do it?
00:09:57.180 I mean, I hope that it would happen.
00:10:00.040 But, I mean, if you're focusing on the natural levels of pessimism that I have when it comes to anything going on in Washington.
00:10:08.960 You are a little black rain cloud.
00:10:10.480 Well, I mean, look, I'm trying to be realistic here, you know, but I think that there is, I think, it's interesting because Trump, when he puts his mind to it, he can accomplish anything.
00:10:23.440 But there are certain things that he says that are things I think he likes and wants, but aren't central focuses of his life.
00:10:31.140 For example, we know the border is, right?
00:10:33.720 There's no question he's going to do stuff on the border.
00:10:35.620 Another example I would use would be term limits.
00:10:40.800 He talked often in speeches about term limits in 2016 and 2017.
00:10:45.460 I think you, wait, wait, wait, hang on just a second.
00:10:48.460 I think to compare Donald Trump's 2016 version, you're looking at a new 2.9 version of Donald Trump, almost a 3.0.
00:11:02.580 He's not the same guy.
00:11:04.820 It's true.
00:11:05.620 I'm not, it's not even a criticism of him, though.
00:11:07.800 No, I know that.
00:11:08.220 It's just like when you have, you can only focus on so many things.
00:11:12.900 You can only get so many things done.
00:11:16.100 Typically.
00:11:16.820 Maybe he's going to come up with a whole new way to do it.
00:11:18.820 Maybe he's putting all these people in, you know, that are going to be able to kind of shepherd these things so he doesn't have to focus on them all the time.
00:11:24.820 Now that is.
00:11:25.500 You're bully pulpit.
00:11:26.560 You really can only push for one or two things at a time.
00:11:29.700 I don't know.
00:11:32.160 I find these videos that he's putting out to be almost like a fireside chat.
00:11:36.980 Mm-hmm.
00:11:37.860 Uh, and he's putting them out for a reason.
00:11:39.660 Have you ever seen a president do this as president elect?
00:11:42.040 No, I like it.
00:11:43.040 I love this.
00:11:44.320 I like it.
00:11:44.740 I love this.
00:11:45.500 And, uh, he's putting these out one after another after another because he is preparing the Washington swamp and America.
00:11:57.500 These are massive changes coming our way, and we're going to need your support.
00:12:02.900 Um, and he has told me, I've got to do all of this in a hundred days, Glenn.
00:12:07.420 I've got a hundred days to do it.
00:12:08.980 He's right on that.
00:12:09.760 Yeah.
00:12:09.900 That's the way he should be thinking.
00:12:11.200 Yeah.
00:12:11.340 But it's a lot to do.
00:12:12.960 It is.
00:12:13.620 But, but do you remember that first bill that Barack Obama, uh, put in that we looked at?
00:12:20.240 It was one of the first healthcare bills or the, it was TARP.
00:12:24.220 And then there was, there was something else.
00:12:27.000 And remember, we stimulus plan, was it a stimulus plan?
00:12:29.460 That's it.
00:12:30.160 $780 billion.
00:12:31.020 Yeah.
00:12:31.220 And it was like 2000 pages.
00:12:32.900 And we went through it paper.
00:12:35.640 I printed it and said, somebody, I didn't know how long it was.
00:12:38.360 Would you print this up?
00:12:39.860 Let me read this.
00:12:40.460 And it's, it was sitting on our, our kitchen table in our studios in, in New York city.
00:12:46.060 Remember?
00:12:46.980 And I, and I looked at that and I went, this is not about stimulus.
00:12:51.320 This is about fundamental transformation.
00:12:54.600 Okay.
00:12:55.080 And they just loaded that bill with everything.
00:12:57.900 The reason why I bring that up is because that showed to me that they did something we never did.
00:13:04.700 And that is plot the entire course.
00:13:09.140 They knew exactly what they wanted to do.
00:13:11.980 Okay.
00:13:12.800 And they never told us Donald Trump is the first one that I'm seeing doing this.
00:13:18.120 He didn't even do this in 16.
00:13:20.000 He made promises in 16 and he believes in keeping promises, but he didn't get everything done.
00:13:26.040 He has the Congress and the Senate right now.
00:13:29.800 He can make the right appointments right now.
00:13:34.020 If he fails to make the right appointments, that's going to be a problem.
00:13:39.400 Because if he has any internal fighting, they are going to unleash on him.
00:13:47.460 Yeah, I think that's true.
00:13:50.300 And if he has anybody on his own side fighting against him, which he did have last time.
00:13:56.580 Definitely did.
00:13:56.880 Yes.
00:13:57.620 He's got, there is a mandate here and the Republican should be reminded of that.
00:14:02.880 And he should not put anybody in any position that doesn't understand MAGA.
00:14:09.300 This is where we're going.
00:14:11.920 This truly is fundamental transformation.
00:14:15.320 This is a reset back to the Constitution in as many ways that I have ever seen.
00:14:21.920 This is as impactful as what FDR did in the opposite direction in 12 years.
00:14:28.760 That's interesting because part, and let me, I'm playing devil's advocate here because
00:14:36.000 I have the same level of hope here for what might happen.
00:14:41.040 But I want you to know though, I don't hope.
00:14:45.160 I believe I know.
00:14:46.820 I believe I know.
00:14:47.820 In talking to him, he's not the same guy.
00:14:52.580 I'm not, that's not what I'm saying.
00:14:53.940 I'm not saying the same guy.
00:14:54.880 I'm just saying it's hard.
00:14:56.040 Oh, I know that.
00:14:56.740 That is a difficult thing to do, getting rid of the Department of Education.
00:15:00.040 Like, Ronald Reagan really believed that.
00:15:02.780 I know that.
00:15:03.360 He really did.
00:15:04.220 That was not a fake thing.
00:15:05.600 I know.
00:15:05.820 He talked about it for decades.
00:15:08.220 I know.
00:15:08.620 Leading up to his presidency.
00:15:09.980 It wasn't even one term off and he's planning like maybe Donald Trump has done here.
00:15:14.800 It was, I mean, this is what this man was known for for multiple decades.
00:15:18.360 And still it was hard to do.
00:15:19.300 Not Department of Education.
00:15:20.820 That was central to his talks in like 1960s, the 60s.
00:15:24.380 No, no, no, it wasn't.
00:15:25.900 The Department of Education was started by Jimmy Carter.
00:15:28.740 Right.
00:15:29.040 I'm saying.
00:15:30.180 Yes.
00:15:30.700 Yes.
00:15:31.040 Education.
00:15:31.780 Consistent policies on education.
00:15:33.520 You're right.
00:15:33.780 Yes.
00:15:33.980 Yes.
00:15:34.280 Yes.
00:15:34.380 Sorry.
00:15:34.740 I'm not being clear.
00:15:36.280 But regardless of that, I have hope and optimism for what he can do.
00:15:42.500 But like when you're talking about this is somebody who's, you know, who's going to do
00:15:46.780 whatever MAGA thing he, what, I mean, his appointments so far have been pretty normal.
00:15:51.900 It makes me nervous.
00:15:53.040 Like pretty, like Marco Rubio as Secretary of State is like, I mean.
00:15:57.260 I wanted Richard Grinnell.
00:15:59.120 Any Republican president in that field could have listed Marco Rubio as Secretary of State.
00:16:07.140 It's like, I don't even think, I'm not saying it's a bad pick, but like it is not particularly
00:16:12.720 consistent with like what I hear from the audience at times about like how against Ukraine
00:16:17.360 funding they are.
00:16:18.180 How against Ukraine and the WEF and the United Nations?
00:16:27.140 Yeah.
00:16:27.400 I mean.
00:16:27.520 I mean, I want somebody in the UN that wants to shut it down.
00:16:32.040 I mean, and Elise Stefanik is a normie Republican pick.
00:16:35.440 And I don't think that's bad.
00:16:37.320 I thought she was really, really good on a lot of things.
00:16:41.520 I'm not even against either of these picks, but like Marco Rubio, I'm borderline on.
00:16:47.560 That's, that's a disappointing pick.
00:16:48.680 And we've had Rubio on the show.
00:16:49.600 We like Marco.
00:16:50.040 I like Marco Rubio, but I don't want him as a Secretary of State under Donald Trump where
00:16:54.980 we're doing funny.
00:16:56.340 I want Richard Grinnell.
00:16:59.060 Yeah.
00:16:59.400 I want the guy who will walk in and say, hey, by the way, just got off the phone with
00:17:04.080 the president.
00:17:04.580 We're going to make a deal here or I'm going back to tell him we don't have a deal.
00:17:09.200 And instead of sending a signed deal to him, we're going to be sending aircraft your way.
00:17:15.540 You know what I mean?
00:17:16.880 I want somebody who's going to walk into the EU and say, you are either paying your way.
00:17:22.300 What he said, he means you're either paying your way or we're done.
00:17:27.820 I want that guy.
00:17:29.960 And I'm not sure Marco Rubio is that guy.
00:17:32.760 He could be.
00:17:33.860 Yeah.
00:17:34.120 Maybe he could surprise us.
00:17:35.660 And he's, yeah, he's obviously, I mean, he was under serious consideration for vice president.
00:17:39.980 Right.
00:17:40.160 At least by all the reporting.
00:17:41.280 But it's just, it's interesting.
00:17:43.060 And I think like part of the things with Trump is this is, I think, consistent with him.
00:17:48.360 And again, I'm not, this is not, I'm not being critical here.
00:17:51.000 I'm just trying to state what I think is actually true.
00:17:53.620 Yeah.
00:17:53.760 Which is a lot of what Donald Trump says is a negotiation.
00:17:58.100 And we all know that going back to the art of the deal, right?
00:18:01.140 Like, you know that.
00:18:02.420 And when he says Kim Jong-un is my best friend, he doesn't mean it, right?
00:18:07.460 He doesn't also mean the next day when he says, we're sending, we're going to go nuke, you know, North Korea tomorrow.
00:18:13.920 He doesn't mean either of those things.
00:18:15.460 They're both different pieces.
00:18:17.620 I think this is fascinating.
00:18:18.600 I want to go through the things that he has said, and I want you to point out what you think is a negotiation.
00:18:25.420 I don't always know, but I can guess to me.
00:18:28.620 You can guess.
00:18:28.680 We know that those two positions can't be true, though.
00:18:31.620 Like, and this is a 2016, or 21st term reference here.
00:18:36.120 But like, saying you're going to, you know, we're going to, you know, blast North Korea, like, you know, you've never seen.
00:18:44.220 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18:44.660 And also, like, we're great friends.
00:18:46.420 I love the guy.
00:18:47.300 Right.
00:18:47.520 Like, those aren't.
00:18:48.060 I know that.
00:18:48.600 Those are two, obviously.
00:18:50.200 But I think there's a difference the way he deals with dictators.
00:18:53.980 I think that's true.
00:18:55.180 He knows because he's a private businessman who has bullied his way in very good negotiating ways.
00:19:04.600 He has, he's used that as a businessman.
00:19:08.960 He knows who these people are.
00:19:10.980 Okay.
00:19:11.540 And so he knows these are the things I would hate in business, and I've done them to people who think they're all that, and I always win.
00:19:21.720 I think that's different.
00:19:22.720 I think that's different than what he's doing on, for instance, the Department of Ed.
00:19:28.220 But, like, I think it's consistent with what you would do with Marco Rubio or Elise Stefanik.
00:19:33.120 You're picking people who are maybe more hawkish than you to send a message of being hawkish, while at the same time maybe trying to implement a more, say, J.D. Vance-ish type forward policy.
00:19:46.040 I don't think, maybe, maybe, maybe, that could be.
00:19:49.120 I don't want to, I'm going to give this man the benefit of the doubt, because in 16, I didn't, and I was shocked by what he got done.
00:19:57.160 Yeah.
00:19:57.540 And what he meant.
00:19:59.000 And now I really think that he means every word he says on these policies.
00:20:04.720 These are scripted.
00:20:06.100 These are not campaign promises.
00:20:07.960 This is, here's what we're going to do.
00:20:09.980 So, I take them literally, not just seriously, but literally, but I could be wrong, but the only, my only thing on some of his appointments is, what does he know that I don't know about Marco Rubio?
00:20:28.580 What does he know that I don't know?
00:20:29.920 All right, back in just a second.
00:20:31.920 Silver is on the rise just since January of 2024, which is when I started talking to you about Lear Capital.
00:20:37.760 The price of silver has risen 39%.
00:20:41.640 This is an unprecedented rise.
00:20:44.060 Supply is dropping.
00:20:45.360 Demand is soaring right now.
00:20:46.860 Experts think that it is going to get a whole lot higher in the short term.
00:20:51.240 They think that it could go somewhere between up, between 60 and 100%.
00:20:56.740 Kind of like, you know, you should buy Bitcoin, Glenn, when it was 30 cents.
00:21:03.240 Yeah.
00:21:03.840 Thanks a lot.
00:21:05.620 Please.
00:21:06.140 There's a ton of industrial demand.
00:21:08.920 Solar energy, electric cars, new battery technology, all of these require huge amounts of silver.
00:21:14.180 And just in case you haven't been paying attention, it isn't just here at home.
00:21:18.060 China is buying massive amounts of it as well.
00:21:21.060 You need to be building a hedge against insanity of a falling U.S. dollar.
00:21:25.100 Unless we turn this economy and start building things here, we are not going to be able to make the payment on the debt soon.
00:21:37.640 Lear Capital, 800-957-GOLD.
00:21:40.400 800-957-GOLD.
00:21:43.120 They're the only gold company with a 24-hour risk-free purchase guarantee.
00:21:47.200 Ask them how you can get up to $15,000 in bonus gold or silver with qualifying purchase.
00:21:52.900 It's Lear Capital, 800-957-GOLD.
00:21:56.800 10 seconds.
00:21:57.440 Station ID.
00:21:57.920 So, Marco Rubio, though, is – he's been for the money going to Ukraine, hasn't he?
00:22:14.240 Isn't he?
00:22:14.600 Certainly much more positive on it than a J.D. Vance.
00:22:19.980 You know, this is – he's been pretty – I mean, Rubio's been pretty consistently hawkish since the time he's come into the public eye, which is, I think, pretty consistent with the Republican Party.
00:22:30.600 I think he's been in that general vicinity.
00:22:33.740 But, like, this – and, again, it's important to note the sort of, like, anti-Ukraine funding element of the Republican Party, which is significant, is not universal in the Republican Party to this day.
00:22:47.600 Like, that is – it's not like a, I don't know, lower taxes versus higher taxes type of thing.
00:22:52.460 I mean, there is a decent amount of disagreement inside the Republican caucus when it comes to that issue.
00:22:58.060 But I think we're – you know, he's been much more on the hawkish side.
00:23:01.940 I think it's consistent with – with, I don't know, a pre-Trump Republican position on a lot of those issues.
00:23:11.600 Would you agree?
00:23:12.800 Yeah.
00:23:13.540 I don't think he's Nikki Haley.
00:23:16.600 I don't think he's Nikki Haley.
00:23:19.080 Yeah.
00:23:19.420 I mean, he has warned, let's not put all of our eggs into one basket in Ukraine.
00:23:24.580 I think that's true.
00:23:25.420 So, we'll see.
00:23:27.480 More in a minute.
00:23:30.340 Glenn Beck.
00:23:31.940 All right.
00:23:33.940 Let me tell you about Rough Greens.
00:23:35.200 Most dogs can't vote.
00:23:36.520 I know.
00:23:37.020 It's a fact.
00:23:37.980 Even though they're citizens.
00:23:39.480 I mean, you know, born here.
00:23:41.080 My dog can't vote.
00:23:42.280 German Shepherd, actually, from Germany.
00:23:44.120 So, he's like, I can't vote.
00:23:46.800 I don't really care.
00:23:47.640 Anyway, I think he would have voted for Trump.
00:23:50.920 But, you know, he would have done it, you know, for reasons like they're eating the dogs, you know.
00:23:56.200 But, it doesn't matter.
00:23:57.700 Knowing your dog is a Trump supporter, doesn't that kind of make you want to give him the best nutrition so he can lead a healthier and happier life?
00:24:04.820 I mean, let's face it.
00:24:06.000 I love my dog.
00:24:06.740 Even if he would have voted for, you know, Kamala.
00:24:09.980 Probably would have sold him.
00:24:11.600 But, I'd still love him.
00:24:13.060 You know, I'd miss him.
00:24:14.440 Folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to have cats all voted for Kamala.

00:24:55.780 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:25:19.560 I've already decorated my Christmas tree.
00:25:21.680 Have you?
00:25:22.320 Really?
00:25:22.920 Yeah.
00:25:23.320 Oh, I'm so.
00:25:24.200 I'm in.
00:25:25.020 I'm in.
00:25:25.780 We spent the weekend decorating Christmas tree.
00:25:29.240 And it was fun.
00:25:32.480 It was fun.
00:25:33.460 And, you know, I just feel like we should just take this time and enjoy this time.
00:25:39.000 Let's just be normal for a while, you know?
00:25:42.240 So, feels good.
00:25:44.380 Christmas is coming.
00:25:45.900 And so is the latest effort from my daughter.
00:25:52.880 It's Cheyenne Grace.
00:25:54.360 This is her singing, I'll be home for Christmas with the Czech, I don't know, Philharmonic or whatever it is, National Orchestra.
00:26:04.220 I have no idea.
00:26:05.000 They're very picky on their name and I don't really care.
00:26:07.480 And they're way over there and I'm over here so I don't care.
00:26:10.220 You've used them for their instruments and now you can say whatever the hell you want.
00:26:14.400 And now I don't care who they are.
00:26:16.980 But they're fantastic.
00:26:18.860 And this is all standards that you'll be able to sing along with and done in the traditional style.
00:26:26.600 So, my wife sent me a social media post of you listening, I guess, for the first time to something, one of the songs, and your daughter over your shoulder.
00:26:35.820 Very, very nice.
00:26:36.740 I like your little relationship with your – I mean, I don't like you, but I like you and your family.
00:26:41.320 Thank you.
00:26:41.800 You know?
00:26:42.300 Thank you.
00:26:42.640 I don't know how to –
00:26:43.380 There's a warm part I have for your family and then I think you're involved and then I don't like it.
00:26:48.940 Yeah.
00:26:49.260 But generally speaking – no, this is going to be great.
00:26:52.280 It's a great – I still haven't heard it.
00:26:53.840 You haven't sent it to me, obviously.
00:26:55.100 I know.
00:26:55.120 I haven't sent it to you.
00:26:55.760 Like, that's too much of a hassle for you to actually let me hear it.
00:26:59.100 Yeah.
00:26:59.620 But what I've heard of it –
00:27:00.480 I did send it to Pat.
00:27:01.940 I just didn't send it to you.
00:27:04.440 It's interesting.
00:27:05.220 Anyway.
00:27:06.280 All right.
00:27:07.020 Let's go back to what we were talking about here a minute ago.
00:27:11.280 And that is some of the picks that Donald Trump is making.
00:27:14.960 He is putting his cabinet together.
00:27:16.640 And some of the people that he has chosen – you know, I like Marco Rubio.
00:27:23.300 Yeah.
00:27:23.640 I don't – I wanted somebody stronger in the Department of State and here's why.
00:27:30.540 You've got to fire everybody for the first two floors.
00:27:33.560 You know, the top two floors, all of them gone.
00:27:36.320 Yeah.
00:27:36.540 All of them.
00:27:37.100 Fire.
00:27:37.540 Bye-bye.
00:27:38.200 Hey.
00:27:38.940 Hey, what floor are you on?
00:27:41.220 I'm on eight.
00:27:42.500 Oh.
00:27:43.600 You're fired.
00:27:44.820 I don't care what you do.
00:27:46.540 You're fired.
00:27:47.600 This is something that, by the way, Donald Trump known for.
00:27:50.080 Yes.
00:27:50.300 In fact, the thing he was most famous for until he became president of the United States.
00:27:54.820 You're fired.
00:27:56.000 I think it's interesting because with Rubio, you think of – he strikes me as a guy who
00:28:00.720 will competently do this job, right?
00:28:03.220 Like he's probably competently manage the State Department.
00:28:08.200 He doesn't strike me as a guy who's going to come out and blow out the first two floors.
00:28:11.960 I know.
00:28:12.200 Yeah, I know.
00:28:12.680 He doesn't strike me as that guy.
00:28:13.740 And that's the problem.
00:28:15.760 I think he could effectively manage the State Department.
00:28:19.360 Here's the problem.
00:28:20.320 The State Department, a lot of that is CIA bullcrap.
00:28:25.380 Okay?
00:28:25.700 A lot of this, what the State Department does is really not what you think the State Department – hey, I'm here to make a treaty.
00:28:33.600 I'm here to – no.
00:28:35.880 No, you're not.
00:28:37.500 It's CIA bullcrap.
00:28:39.480 Let the CIA be what the CIA is.
00:28:42.600 And let's get all of these people who think they know better than every president they've ever served out of there.
00:28:52.500 I want them out of there.
00:28:53.860 They've been there for 100 years.
00:28:56.620 They keep doing the same bullcrap.
00:28:59.200 Hey, let's – you know what we need?
00:29:00.700 We need a foreign war.
00:29:02.280 That's what we need.
00:29:03.260 You know, I'll tell you what, if we keep the world destabilized, then we're going to be in power.
00:29:10.220 No.
00:29:11.820 No.
00:29:12.720 That doesn't work.
00:29:14.040 That only creates enemies all around the world.
00:29:17.780 Let's be friends to everyone unless they're enemies of ours.
00:29:22.740 And if they attack us, buh-bye.
00:29:25.960 Stay out of everybody's business.
00:29:28.180 I don't see Marco Rubio as that guy.
00:29:30.260 Now, that may not be what Trump wants to do.
00:29:33.200 It may be, and he knows something about Marco Rubio that I don't know.
00:29:36.720 Yeah, and Rubio, I think, has changed a little bit in his policy platform over the years.
00:29:42.660 And I hate to throw him under the bus because I actually –
00:29:45.020 Definitely not throwing him.
00:29:46.340 We've met with him a million times, and I like him.
00:29:47.900 Yeah, and I don't think – I mean, I wouldn't say at all that we're throwing him under the bus.
00:29:51.480 I find the pick to be interesting, though.
00:29:53.380 Like, I think it's the type of thing that an old-school Republican who is skeptical of Donald Trump
00:30:03.080 and afraid he's going to pick crazy people in every role would be calmed by, right?
00:30:08.660 Like, I think you would say –
00:30:10.460 I think a George Bush would be calmed by this.
00:30:13.120 Yeah.
00:30:13.520 And I don't like that.
00:30:14.300 I think that if you are a foreign ally, you might look at this and be like, wait a minute,
00:30:21.040 they told us he was going to pick all crazy people, and Marco Rubio is totally an expected type of pick
00:30:27.080 for a Republican president.
00:30:28.540 So I think from that perspective, like, that can make you nervous or that can make you hopeful.
00:30:33.640 Right.
00:30:33.900 I think that, you know, Rubio – and I did look back at his Ukraine funding, by the way.
00:30:38.280 I would say, if you follow the pattern, early on he supported some of the funding
00:30:42.280 and I think became more skeptical of it as it went on.
00:30:44.400 Okay.
00:30:44.840 So that's not completely inconsistent with Trump's position.
00:30:48.080 And here's why.
00:30:50.220 I'm protective of Donald Trump.
00:30:52.500 Yeah.
00:30:52.880 I feel like, no, no, no, please, don't.
00:30:56.080 They might be an enemy of yours.
00:30:57.860 You know what I mean?
00:30:58.600 Because the last time, he didn't know who to pick.
00:31:02.560 He said, I didn't know who to pick.
00:31:04.400 I had to pick all these people, and I didn't know who.
00:31:06.600 I didn't know the players.
00:31:08.280 You know, and now he still has to pick, like, 4,000 people.
00:31:14.100 Minimum.
00:31:14.860 The number's probably closer to 20,000.
00:31:17.600 You can't pick that many.
00:31:19.000 Make sure the big ones are solid in your camp.
00:31:23.660 And maybe they are.
00:31:24.880 I don't know.
00:31:25.440 I think Rubio – I mean, look, Rubio is under serious consideration for the vice presidential slot
00:31:29.980 by all reporting.
00:31:32.240 I think he is pretty aligned with Donald Trump.
00:31:35.240 I think he pretty much is.
00:31:37.020 It'll just be interesting to see because these – as we've seen with Trump, at times,
00:31:40.680 these relationships tend to crumble a little bit after a positive start.
00:31:44.780 So, I don't know.
00:31:45.540 I don't know if they're so closely aligned.
00:31:48.400 But if you're taking a role like Secretary of State, Glenn, I mean, you know, you are taking
00:31:53.260 a role that is under, quite clearly, the President of the United States.
00:31:58.680 Your job is to execute the policy of the President.
00:32:01.540 Your job is not to go out there with your own views and –
00:32:06.400 Uh-huh.
00:32:06.840 I know that.
00:32:07.740 I know you know that.
00:32:09.140 But, like –
00:32:09.240 They don't know that.
00:32:11.060 That certainly –
00:32:11.680 Everybody on the top two floors needs to know that on their way out with their box of stuff.
00:32:18.100 And then you go, oh, why was I fired again?
00:32:21.400 Oh, I thought I knew better than the President.
00:32:24.060 I get it.
00:32:25.260 Well, I guess I'm going back to Omaha.
00:32:29.300 So, let me ask you this, Glenn.
00:32:30.760 Yeah.
00:32:31.280 The Senate Majority Leader.
00:32:33.780 You've got John Thune.
00:32:35.660 You've got John Cornyn.
00:32:37.840 And Rick Scott.
00:32:38.900 Now, I think we –
00:32:40.420 So, that is – that is just – I pray for a quick death when it comes to Cornyn.
00:32:49.780 I expect death but not to come rapidly.
00:32:56.140 For yourself, by the way, you should point out, you're talking about yourself dying.
00:32:58.780 Yeah, maybe I have, you know, third stage cancer, you know what I mean?
00:33:04.520 Just about to go into fourth, okay?
00:33:06.600 And then I have somebody who I'm like, okay, I might have a cold from time to time.
00:33:13.420 With Scott.
00:33:14.180 With Scott.
00:33:14.740 Okay.
00:33:15.100 Okay.
00:33:16.640 I want J.D. Vance.
00:33:20.720 That's who I want.
00:33:21.720 I want the President to say, J.D., here's what you're going to do.
00:33:26.620 You're going to go in and you're going to do what John Adams did.
00:33:29.320 And you're going to sit in that chair and you're going to say, hey, you know what?
00:33:32.720 It's the highest ranking member of the Senate.
00:33:35.360 That'd be me.
00:33:36.980 So I'm setting the agenda.
00:33:39.580 Now, maybe he will do that if whoever is selected doesn't play ball.
00:33:46.160 But Donald Trump cannot have anyone.
00:33:49.560 Just on the appointments.
00:33:51.760 You know, remember, they'll drag things out and drag things out and drag things out.
00:33:55.300 And then you miss your window of opportunity.
00:33:57.660 Donald Trump right now is saying, all of these have to be approved right now.
00:34:02.700 Get this off.
00:34:04.180 You've got to do it in a recess.
00:34:07.120 Recess appointments.
00:34:08.480 Do it.
00:34:09.620 Get it done right now.
00:34:11.920 Yeah.
00:34:12.120 And if they don't, they're going to tie up all the rest.
00:34:16.340 He's got to have these appointments.
00:34:18.580 It strikes me.
00:34:19.640 And you tell me if I'm reading this situation wrong.
00:34:22.000 It strikes me as Donald Trump thinks getting the recess appointment possibility where he can name all these other people is more important than who the actual Senate majority leader is.
00:34:33.500 Yes.
00:34:33.740 And then he's willing to go with any of them if they'll give him that piece.
00:34:38.240 I think so.
00:34:38.860 And I think if he does not come out and say he wants Rick Scott to get this job, there's no chance of it happening.
00:34:47.380 I think Donald Trump has to actively.
00:34:49.520 I think he's trying to let the system play itself, not create any enemy.
00:34:55.820 I think that's what you're saying.
00:34:57.180 Not create any enemies.
00:34:58.980 But I hope he has in his back pocket.
00:35:02.320 You screw with me.
00:35:03.740 And I'm sending J.D. Vance in.
00:35:06.300 That's what I'm going to do.
00:35:07.700 Because we have no time.
00:35:09.920 Remember, 100 days to fundamentally strip all of this stuff out.
00:35:17.640 That's going to be hard.
00:35:18.820 The Democrats right now, they've been working for the last year on trying to figure out how to cement this plan into place that they have.
00:35:27.660 So he's not only got to go find everything that they every button and lever and everything that they've turned up, turned down, shut on, shut off, turned on.
00:35:38.140 He's got to go in there and find all of it and then rip it out.
00:35:42.980 He has 100 days to get these people in line and working if he doesn't get that.
00:35:51.520 So he's got to play hardball from the very beginning.
00:35:54.320 And there's nobody better at playing hardball than Donald Trump.
00:35:57.240 And there's nobody better at negotiating.
00:36:00.120 So if he is quiet on the Senate, believe me, he remembers what a pain in the ass Mitch McConnell was.
00:36:12.220 Okay.
00:36:12.560 He knows that.
00:36:13.980 So if he's being quiet, I trust him as a negotiator.
00:36:18.880 He's got these guarantees.
00:36:20.800 He's got something up his sleeve that, oh, you want to screw with me?
00:36:25.360 Okay.
00:36:26.060 You go ahead.
00:36:26.880 You go ahead.
00:36:27.480 I'm going to leave you alone.
00:36:29.120 You can do your job.
00:36:30.520 But if you don't follow and get this stuff done, I'm building a building over your house.
00:36:38.540 That kind of thing.
00:36:39.600 You know what I mean?
00:36:40.040 Yeah, because look, a part of this dance is picking your battles.
00:36:46.900 Right.
00:36:47.360 And it strikes me, I could be wrong on this, but it strikes me as that Donald Trump has
00:36:53.080 not identified Senate majority leader as a top tier battle for him.
00:36:58.600 I think it is.
00:37:00.940 In hearing him when we're out on the campaign trip.
00:37:03.660 Well, Rick Scott is not a top tier priority so far.
00:37:06.660 I know.
00:37:07.400 I know.
00:37:07.840 But he has said on the campaign trail, I have to have the Senate.
00:37:14.740 I have to have it.
00:37:16.300 We have to get these things through quickly.
00:37:18.660 So it is, I know it is a top priority.
00:37:22.180 So again, my only critique is, what does he know that I don't know?
00:37:27.740 He's got something up his sleeve.
00:37:29.780 It strikes me as he sees Thune, Cornyn, Scott, whatever.
00:37:35.020 Whatever.
00:37:35.200 Give me what I want.
00:37:36.160 I can work with any of them.
00:37:37.800 I don't want to sit here and use my capital to pick out of that group.
00:37:42.560 Yes.
00:37:42.980 Like, so just give me what I want and I need out of those guys and I'll work with whoever
00:37:48.080 wants it, whoever's going to get it.
00:37:49.400 So he's doing the carrot right now.
00:37:51.280 Whatever.
00:37:52.560 What's his stick?
00:37:53.640 Yeah.
00:37:53.920 Okay.
00:37:54.260 Because he has a stick.
00:37:55.520 You know, he does.
00:37:56.420 All right.
00:37:56.740 Back in just a second.
00:37:58.500 This year, we've got a lot to be thankful for.
00:38:01.380 Like maybe the world isn't coming to an end right away.
00:38:04.180 I mean, that's a nice thing.
00:38:05.600 Maybe, maybe, maybe I'm just saying, maybe Jesus is like, you know what?
00:38:10.460 I'm going to take a little rest.
00:38:12.020 I'm not coming back right yet.
00:38:14.560 This Thanksgiving, but then again, maybe he is.
00:38:16.820 This Thanksgiving season and the rest of the year, we're going to be especially grateful
00:38:21.360 for the meat we put on our plates, especially if that meat is from Good Ranchers.

00:39:27.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:39.740 If you own your own home, I have a question for you.
00:39:42.920 Do you like owning that home?
00:39:44.660 No.
00:39:45.600 Glenn doesn't like owning it.
00:39:47.140 I don't know.
00:39:47.880 Always stuff to fix.
00:39:49.200 Yeah, it is.
00:39:49.760 Lawns to mow.
00:39:50.860 Oh, you're really convincing me on this one.
00:39:53.100 Believe me, homeownership is not always the easiest thing in the world.
00:39:57.320 However, you don't necessarily want to throw away all the cash that you're putting into
00:40:00.540 that home.
00:40:01.040 You want to be able to sell that home later on to someone else.
00:40:03.400 But what if someone has already taken possession of your home?
00:40:07.760 Are they going to mow the lawn?
00:40:08.760 They don't.
00:40:09.500 You still mow the lawn.
00:40:10.440 You still fix the stuff.
00:40:12.140 They just get all the money out of the house.
00:40:14.080 It's called home title theft.
00:40:15.180 It's a great deal for cybercriminals.
00:40:18.800 Fantastic line of work if you happen to be a cybercriminal overseas somewhere.
00:40:22.920 But, you know, maybe if you happen to be a homeowner, you want to prevent that cyber
00:40:27.940 thief from taking control of your home.
00:40:29.380 And that's why you should get home title protection from Home Title Lock.
00:40:33.740 When no one's watching out for your home's title, it's really just a matter of time until
00:40:37.240 one of these thieves targets you.
00:40:38.740 It's happening.
00:40:39.500 It is real.
00:40:40.140 It is something that's going on across the country, but you can do something about it.
00:40:43.820 Don't fall prey to these thieves.

00:41:07.180 So, Sarah, who orchestrates and selects our music, does a little more than that.
00:41:28.260 Sarah, what do you think of the pick so far?
00:41:31.740 Um, I'm not pro-Kamala at all.
00:41:36.880 I'd never wanted a female president.
00:41:38.600 I'm not very feminist, but I love that he, Trump, is putting very strong women in very
00:41:44.000 big positions.
00:41:45.080 It makes me, I don't know, feel really good about it.
00:41:48.340 Chief of Staff.
00:41:48.820 What do you mean?
00:41:49.520 What do you mean?
00:41:50.540 It's almost like behind every good man is a good woman.
00:41:53.760 And now he has a bunch of them behind him.
00:41:56.080 And I think it's a really good choice.
00:41:59.340 Interesting.
00:41:59.780 Yeah, it is interesting.
00:42:01.000 I'm trying to wrap my arms because what you're saying, you know, what I know of you is you
00:42:05.960 don't care if it's a man or a woman.
00:42:07.760 You don't care.
00:42:08.220 You're not a feminist like that.
00:42:09.520 It's got to be a woman.
00:42:11.160 Just give me the one who has the best qualifications.
00:42:14.160 Absolutely.
00:42:14.840 The one thing I will say is I don't want a female president ever.
00:42:18.040 Why?
00:42:18.400 It's so interesting.
00:42:20.380 Because I know what I would do with a nuke button.
00:42:22.560 And I don't think that's a good idea.
00:42:25.100 I swear, the only people who don't want female presidents are women.
00:42:28.620 I swear, Sarah Gonzalez is, of course, here at The Blaze.
00:42:34.300 This is a very long, this is like one of the first things she ever said to me when I first
00:42:37.280 met her is that she didn't want a female president.
00:42:40.080 I don't know.
00:42:41.920 I've heard that a lot.
00:42:43.120 Yeah.
00:42:43.520 From women.
00:42:44.020 It's interesting.
00:42:45.020 It's interesting.
00:42:45.600 So I think this is, I think you're right.
00:42:48.700 And it's like, he's a really bad sexist and Nazi.
00:42:53.580 He's terrible at it.
00:42:54.420 He's putting all these really strong women in and Jews.
00:43:00.560 It's like, I don't think Hitler would have done that.
00:43:02.980 I'm just saying.
00:43:03.580 He's, you know, he's, they criticize him all the time for, you know, his business acumen
00:43:08.680 isn't all that it's cracked up to be.
00:43:10.620 And when they say he wants to be Hitler, I will say there is evidence he's actually really
00:43:14.920 terrible at being Hitler.
00:43:16.160 If that's what he's trying to do, he is awful at it.
00:43:20.580 You know, I, this, he really needs to understand that the, naming Jews and women to high level
00:43:28.060 positions is totally dismantling his idea of being Hitler.
00:43:31.840 Why can't he get this?
00:43:33.460 I don't understand.
00:43:34.200 All right.
00:43:34.700 Florida, Michael Waltz, national security advisor.
00:43:39.400 Also Lee Zeldin.
00:43:41.180 That's cool.
00:43:41.800 To lead the EPA.
00:43:43.640 I like that.
00:43:44.920 I think I like that.
00:43:46.340 I think I like that too.
00:43:47.840 A lot.
00:43:49.100 However, I am worried.
00:43:50.360 Stop picking them from Congress.
00:43:52.260 Please stop picking them from Congress.
00:43:54.520 Yeah.
00:43:54.660 The Glenn Beck program.
00:43:59.580 It's hard right now to have financial peace of mind when our country, even the world is
00:44:03.440 in turmoil and chaos.

00:44:12.740 You're like, ooh, talk to me about tariffs.
00:44:16.260 Trump being in office will fix it.
00:44:19.060 Maybe it won't, but I think it will, but it's going to take time.
00:44:21.860 Being prepared for the worst while hoping for the best is a virtue way to hedge against
00:44:27.120 economic disaster is with gold or silver precious metals.

00:46:00.640 Hello, America.
00:46:03.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:46:05.280 Oh, it's about to get hot and steamy in here.
00:46:07.600 No, seriously.
00:46:08.400 Hot and steamy.
00:46:10.160 We have sexy, sexy tariff talk coming up.
00:46:15.200 Yeah.
00:46:16.300 Let me say it again.
00:46:18.240 Tariffs.
00:46:18.720 Aw, yeah.
00:46:22.040 It was actually the original name for the show.
00:46:24.680 Working title was Tariff Talk.
00:46:26.180 But we thought it was too sexy.
00:46:27.900 Yeah, too much.
00:46:28.580 We thought too many people would tune in and go, I gotta hear tariff talk.
00:46:32.620 Aw, yeah.
00:46:35.660 We're gonna go to that here in just a second.
00:46:37.820 Stand by.
00:46:39.140 My Patriot Supply is our sponsor.
00:46:42.160 And we have reached the point where you need to take a moment, put your hands on your knees,
00:46:46.160 stare at the ground, take a deep breath for a moment,
00:46:48.100 take another deep breath, let out a huge sigh of relief, feels good, okay?
00:46:54.860 We didn't burn the country down yet.
00:46:58.540 So, don't lose that feeling of relief, but I said yet.
00:47:03.820 The left has plans.
00:47:05.980 I don't know what they have planned, but, you know, these next few weeks, it could be kind of dicey.
00:47:12.960 So, storing emergency food in your home is the right thing to do.

00:47:58.320 I think he's, I think, I think his last name says everything.
00:48:04.060 Peter Sénon, which I believe is French.
00:48:08.960 What's happening?
00:48:10.540 Sexy, sexy tax tariff talk.
00:48:15.880 From the Heritage Foundation, a visiting fellow, we have Peter Sénon.
00:48:21.140 How are you, Peter?
00:48:22.960 I am great.
00:48:24.160 I appreciate that introduction.
00:48:25.920 Yes, it is that sexy.
00:48:27.860 Yeah.
00:48:28.340 Oh, I know.
00:48:29.060 Everybody says it.
00:48:29.940 Everybody says it.
00:48:30.640 So, without getting it too steamy in here, let's go over the tariffs because I've always been against tariffs.
00:48:38.980 However, I might be wrong.
00:48:43.340 Donald Trump is making a good case when he's talking about getting rid of the income tax because tariffs will raise the prices of things, especially if he does it the way he's talking about doing it.
00:48:56.380 Um, but if he is getting rid of or lowering the income tax to, you know, 10 percent, it's such a boon for the economy that we could make up that deficit and become a very powerful nation again.
00:49:13.920 Tell me I'm wrong.
00:49:15.280 That's absolutely correct.
00:49:16.600 Yeah, no, you're absolutely right.
00:49:18.040 And economists, you know, the vast majority of economists go after tariffs.
00:49:22.180 They attack Trump over tariffs.
00:49:23.320 And I think they are looking at the trees for the forest here, because if you replace a tariff, which is basically a sales tax, but it's one that focuses on imported goods.
00:49:36.220 If you replace that with either reducing or, you know, in our dream scenario, abolishing the entire income tax is absolutely rocket fuel for the economy.
00:49:45.960 Yeah, hold on.
00:49:46.720 The reason is because.
00:49:48.060 He just said abolish the income tax.
00:49:50.040 We, I mean, pay attention, Sarah.
00:49:52.200 This is, he just said abolish income tax.
00:49:56.680 Oh, yeah.
00:50:00.460 All right.
00:50:01.200 Go ahead.
00:50:02.020 All right.
00:50:02.340 Go ahead.
00:50:02.560 Yeah.
00:50:02.860 So you can cue up the, uh, right.
00:50:05.340 Uh, the background music.
00:50:06.460 So, yeah.
00:50:07.100 And he actually floated abolishing it with Joe Rogan a couple of weeks ago.
00:50:10.960 Mm-hmm.
00:50:11.760 You know, he had been going after he said no tax on tips and then no tax on overtime, no tax on first responders, no tax on social security.
00:50:18.460 And it was kind of like, he was really flirting with just breaking up with the income tax altogether.
00:50:24.120 And when he was on there with Rogan, that's exactly what he did.
00:50:26.640 He said, you know, we, maybe we should go back to the 1800s.
00:50:31.040 Uh, when, you know, that was before we had an income tax.
00:50:33.500 It's also before we had a Fed.
00:50:34.700 And back then, the federal government had to live off tariffs.
00:50:38.760 And that was the greatest period, not only of economic growth, but of cultural achievement.
00:50:44.680 It is astounding what we, everything Elon Musk does was invented in the 1880s.
00:50:52.560 Computers, magnetism, rockets, uh, what's his, uh, Hyperloop.
00:50:57.080 Every single thing came out of there.
00:50:59.580 It was really the golden age of humanity.
00:51:01.880 And the key there was that we did not have an income tax.
00:51:04.780 We did not have a regulatory state.
00:51:06.860 We did not have a Fed.
00:51:08.380 So if Trump can take us back there and all we have to do is like an 8% sales tax on Chinese stocks, that is the deal of the century.
00:51:17.280 Okay.
00:51:17.420 So let's go over the, who pays the tariffs, American companies or the foreign country?
00:51:24.140 Interestingly, during Trump's first term, he put tariffs on China and China actually paid about 80% of those.
00:51:33.200 So it would issue subsidies to Chinese exporters so they could maintain market share and keep their prices low.
00:51:40.400 So the Chinese government paid the tariffs.
00:51:43.140 So if he does it again, he's talking about hitting China with something like 60% tariffs and then between a 10 and 20% tariff for everybody else.
00:51:53.360 Now, given Trump's style, he is not going to come in and do that across the board.
00:51:58.540 He's going to come in and use that as a club, right?
00:52:01.760 So the Europeans specifically, they act like a fortress.
00:52:05.280 They are brutal to outsiders.
00:52:08.220 If you want to export the Europe, they will, they put you over a barrel.
00:52:12.040 You know, Beryl, you remember a couple of years ago with Brexit, the first thing the European Union did was sat them down and said, nice economy you got here.
00:52:19.920 Be ashamed if something happened to it.
00:52:21.760 We're going to need a payment from you every single year.
00:52:24.800 It is literally the mafia.
00:52:26.580 They do that to Norway, Switzerland, all these countries have to fork over billions of dollars to get access to the European market.
00:52:33.560 Now, imagine if we did that.
00:52:34.720 Imagine if we call up Mexico or Canada.
00:52:36.620 We say, hey, listen, we got this beautiful economy.
00:52:39.960 You guys are selling into it.
00:52:41.300 Here, why don't you write me a check for $50 billion to keep access?
00:52:44.960 That's exactly what the Europeans do.
00:52:46.640 So the first thing Trump's probably going to do, given what he did last time, is he'll call up Europe and he will do the exact same thing.
00:52:53.760 He'll say, you know, I got a 20% tariff burning a hole in my pocket.
00:52:57.400 I need you to do something for some things for me.
00:53:00.220 But anyway, even if he does end up applying those to all foreigners, the Europeans are not going to cover the exporters because they're in a deep fiscal hole.
00:53:11.000 They don't have the money.
00:53:11.700 They're already bankrupt.
00:53:12.740 They're not going to do what China did.
00:53:14.540 But a lot of those tariffs, especially the ones for China, are probably going to keep getting paid by China because exports to America are what they live on.
00:53:22.700 If they lose that, the game's over.
00:53:24.560 And we should not be empowering them, quite honestly.
00:53:28.100 Now, here's why I have possibly turned around.
00:53:33.100 I'm willing to listen to tariff talk because in my cute little head, I keep thinking that when you have an extra $20,000 or $30,000 that you're pulling in every year,
00:53:51.220 whatever it is you were paying in income tax and everything goes down that's made here in America, if you're not paying that income tax,
00:54:01.420 you have a lot of extra buying power, which means most Americans will spend that and we'll grow our economy, which will put more taxes.
00:54:12.020 Well, we don't have tax, so that wouldn't work.
00:54:13.760 How does it work when you don't have taxes?
00:54:18.260 Go ahead.
00:54:18.700 So, just kind of running through the numbers.
00:54:22.340 So, the first thing that happens is if you get rid of the income tax altogether, so I estimate you get about a 20% jump in incomes in the U.S.
00:54:33.020 So, that would be something like $15,000 for a typical family.
00:54:36.760 So, that's what you get off the bat.
00:54:38.500 The typical family currently in America pays about $18,000 in income tax.
00:54:43.320 So, you save that.
00:54:44.420 And then you knock off about $3,000 for the tariffs.
00:54:47.500 There's a variety of estimates on that, but that seems to be the cluster.
00:54:50.720 So, you get a $15,000 raise because the economy is growing faster.
00:54:54.960 You get an $18,000 raise because you don't have to, you know, send your income tax to the government.
00:55:00.580 People don't realize how much they're paying to the government, right?
00:55:02.740 A lot of it is hit.
00:55:03.920 But at any rate, you know, you've got the guy where they call it withholding.
00:55:08.780 Anyway, so that's $33,000.
00:55:09.900 You knock off $3,000 for the tariffs.
00:55:11.180 You're looking at a $30,000 raise per year, $25,000 a month.
00:55:15.320 Now, currently, the median American take-home is about $58,000, okay, which is about $76,000 minus the income tax.
00:55:24.180 So, you go from taking home $58,000 to taking home $88,000, right?
00:55:29.620 That is a massive difference.
00:55:30.900 So, that sort of sets the stage.
00:55:32.120 But the next one happens is exactly what you just mentioned.
00:55:35.380 Hold on.
00:55:37.260 You go from $58,000 to $88,000.
00:55:41.900 Oh, yeah.
00:55:44.800 Ding-dong, pizza delivery man.
00:55:48.520 Anyway.
00:55:49.060 Why is that the part you like so much in his movies?
00:55:51.540 I don't know.
00:55:51.600 It's interesting what he's excited about.
00:55:53.600 I don't know.
00:55:54.160 Okay.
00:55:55.580 All right.
00:55:56.380 Go ahead.
00:55:58.600 All right.
00:55:59.360 No, I love it.
00:56:00.920 And it's true.
00:56:01.980 I mean, you know, if you're making $88,000, you can go to Vegas, and things happen in Vegas.
00:56:05.680 Yeah.
00:56:06.500 Right.
00:56:07.440 Right.
00:56:07.940 Creating jobs.
00:56:09.760 That's correct.
00:56:11.860 Yeah.
00:56:12.340 Well, and so that's the fun part, right, is you mentioned earlier that if you're not paying income tax, then production in the U.S. is cheaper.
00:56:19.880 So instead of the Chinese stocks coming in, you know, they used to come in for whatever, $6.
00:56:25.820 Now they're coming in at $9.
00:56:27.480 Fine.
00:56:27.960 But China's paying for that, so they're probably still coming in at $6.
00:56:31.020 But meanwhile, American factories can make stocks for less because they are not paying the income tax.
00:56:37.800 There's a very good chance that we're going to steal a lot of that manufacturing, even if the Chinese government pays for the tariffs.
00:56:44.880 And that means also because the economy, we're building factories, we're doing things ourself because we can, everybody's pay goes up because we need more workers, right?
00:56:59.300 Exactly.
00:57:00.420 Exactly.
00:57:00.980 And then if you do mass deportations, then those jobs will actually go to Americans.
00:57:04.420 So you've got two possibilities, right?
00:57:06.320 One of them is that China covers the tariffs, in which case it's a free lunch for us.
00:57:11.940 You know, China's what, sending us about $500 billion.
00:57:15.360 Well, their share would be, let's say, $300 billion.
00:57:17.720 So that would be fantastic.
00:57:19.040 Thank you very much.
00:57:19.900 Or China does not cover the tariffs, in which case Chinese goods are priced out of the market.
00:57:25.260 American goods pay no income tax, so they're cheaper.
00:57:27.620 By the way, every headquarter on Earth would try to move to the United States.
00:57:31.700 If you're paying no income taxes in the single biggest economy on Earth, everybody is going to be moving here, including the Chinese companies.
00:57:39.420 So, right, the worst case scenario, the Chinese don't cover it, and then they get out-competed, and all those jobs come back to America.
00:57:47.260 And if it's only Americans living here, then Americans are going to be swimming in jobs.
00:57:50.920 I mean, this is just, this is big.
00:57:56.560 How much?
00:57:57.920 Oh, yeah.
00:57:58.360 I mean, he has only kind of floated this on the Rogan show.
00:58:03.000 How real do you think this is?
00:58:05.160 Because I know he loves tariffs.
00:58:07.300 I know he loves tariffs.
00:58:10.140 He loves tariffs, and he hates the income tax.
00:58:13.500 So it's beautiful.
00:58:14.720 It's like a, just like the perfect mutant president that we can talk about.
00:58:19.100 Peter, isn't the complication here, though, that he can essentially do what he wants with tariffs, but he can't do what he wants with the income tax?
00:58:29.800 And that becomes the heavy lift here.
00:58:32.900 Right.
00:58:33.480 So he would need Congress to play ball on the income tax, and Congress is very tight, as we're all discussing at the moment.
00:58:40.820 There's a ton of rhinos over there.
00:58:42.080 So that's going to need, you know, the pressure and the passion that people showed during the campaign, where millions of Americans showed.
00:58:51.320 Yeah, we're going to have to put that on the rhinos.
00:58:52.860 Yeah, I think that if he did, you know, a tour, even, and it was just all about income tax, you just have to say to people, you go from 58 to 88 in take-home pay.
00:59:08.320 I think a lot of people will be like, you know what?
00:59:11.420 I love that.
00:59:12.860 I agree, but you're not going to get, obviously.
00:59:15.120 So in theory, you could put it into a reconciliation bill, right?
00:59:17.980 You could put at least a massive reduction.
00:59:20.880 Yeah.
00:59:20.980 You couldn't, you know, not a constitutional amendment, unfortunately.
00:59:23.640 That's what I would prefer, repealing the 16th.
00:59:26.000 Yeah, me too.
00:59:26.840 But you could capture Americans' imagination with this.
00:59:31.540 Yeah.
00:59:32.220 I think that's pretty, that would be pretty great.
00:59:35.100 I do think you'd have issues with some of these, as you, you know, point out, rhino-type Republicans that, who complain, would complain about all sorts of things, including deficit stuff, right?
00:59:47.700 Like they would say, or we're going to lose all this income.
00:59:49.860 All right.
00:59:50.100 So let me take a break, and then let's talk about the deficit, Peter, all right?
00:59:53.980 Peter St. Onge, he is, I'm not going to hold it against him for being French.
00:59:58.740 I mean, somewhere in his past, somebody had sex with a Frenchman.
01:00:01.840 Okay, let's move past that.
01:00:04.360 He's with the Heritage Foundation, a visiting fellow.
01:00:07.140 This is definitely the weirdest interview he's ever done.
01:00:09.800 He's regretting every minute of this.
01:00:11.520 He's like, this is the end of my career and my credibility.

01:01:14.500 10 seconds.
01:01:15.180 Station ID.
01:01:26.340 Okay, I think I got this number from you, Peter,
01:01:30.000 but tariffs would bring in about $900 billion, almost a trillion dollars.
01:01:40.380 But we're spending now, I don't even know how much, $4 trillion a year, some crazy number like that.
01:01:48.380 So how do you bridge the gap?
01:01:49.800 Six and a half, yeah.
01:01:51.480 Six and a half.
01:01:53.040 Okay.
01:01:53.740 All right.
01:01:54.180 Good.
01:01:54.520 So there's a bit of a gap there.
01:01:57.300 There's a five and a half billion dollar, trillion dollar gap.
01:02:03.800 Yeah.
01:02:04.400 So income tax itself is taking about two and a half trillion.
01:02:07.760 And then you've got payroll, you've got excise, things like gasoline, cigarettes, whatnot.
01:02:17.080 You've got capital gains, corporate income tax.
01:02:21.300 Those hopefully would be folded into an income tax repeal, those last two.
01:02:26.440 You put it together and you're looking at about $2.4 trillion in lost revenue.
01:02:31.180 And then you've got 900 in tariffs coming in for it.
01:02:34.780 So you've got a gap of about 1.5.
01:02:36.380 Now, if the economy grows 20%, then you're going to get about $500 billion more from payroll tax and from excise.
01:02:47.380 So you're looking at a net loss of $1 trillion.
01:02:50.880 Now, I personally would prefer to get rid of the payroll tax as well.
01:02:54.060 Yeah, me too.
01:02:54.660 The payroll tax is, yeah.
01:02:55.960 It's not as bad as the income tax.
01:02:58.200 Right, because the income tax is on top of it.
01:03:01.340 It also varies with how much you produce.
01:03:04.040 The payroll tax is a flat tax.
01:03:08.200 So, you know, in a perfect world, we're not taxing work at all.
01:03:11.760 We're taxing bad things, not good things.
01:03:13.920 But in the grand scheme, you know, in terms of incentives, get rid of the income tax first.
01:03:18.840 And then we can have the next conversation, which would be getting rid of the payroll tax.
01:03:22.740 So if we just get rid of the income tax, we're talking about 2.4 net of the tariffs.
01:03:28.200 Net of the economic growth, you're talking $1 trillion.
01:03:31.740 So you'd be cutting $1 trillion out of a budget of about $6.5.
01:03:36.360 Now, Elon is, you know, he's talking about Doge, his Department of Government Efficiency, and he's floating $2 trillion.
01:03:43.180 So I haven't seen the math on those.
01:03:45.180 I don't know where that's coming from.
01:03:46.940 I, you know, agree wholeheartedly.
01:03:48.980 I'm certain that we can cut much more than that.
01:03:51.640 The easy part is just cutting out the parts of the military that invade foreign countries.
01:03:56.840 So bring them home, put them on the border, put them in the Coast Guard, convert the Navy ships into Coast Guard ships that patrol our waters, stop invading other countries.
01:04:05.400 That'd be a very easy $800 billion if we look at countries like Japan or UK, which have, you know, UK has a functioning military.
01:04:14.360 It's got a Coast Guard, although it doesn't use it.
01:04:17.040 It's got nuclear weapons.
01:04:18.440 It's got the whole kit.
01:04:20.060 And they spend less than $100 billion.
01:04:22.200 So that's very easy.
01:04:23.820 Of course, you can cut welfare for able-bodied people, which, you know, the government tries very, very hard to hide how much it spends on welfare.
01:04:31.420 But it's easily over a trillion.
01:04:34.020 The cost of illegals themselves, which very conservatively is about $150 billion a year, maybe closer to $300 billion by some estimates, because, again, they're trying to hide the costs.
01:04:45.180 Pharmaceutical, right, there is a – that's going to be coming into focus with RFK here, but there is a ton of waste and corruption in pharmaceutical payments.
01:04:55.580 Those are something like 20% of our economy.
01:04:57.360 So you can go through those, but really, you know, if you sort of zoom out, you're very familiar with the Tenth Amendment.
01:05:04.440 There are precisely four agencies that are authorized, right, state, justice, defense, treasury, with post offices.
01:05:11.780 And so, strictly speaking, if we had a Supreme Court that actually read the common-sense language in the Tenth Amendment, almost the entire thing is gone.
01:05:24.060 You would slash everything.
01:05:25.200 Personally, I would keep Social Security and Medicare because they've already been paid for.
01:05:29.200 That's a complicated issue, I think.
01:05:30.700 You've got to make sure that people are protected because they already got ripped off on the way in.
01:05:35.300 But aside from that, almost everything they do, these – from DEI to just – to the Federal Reserve, all of that is unconstitutional.
01:05:44.140 You slash that down and you are – gosh, you're probably more than $3 trillion down.
01:05:48.560 So do you think we have a shot at doing that?
01:05:52.360 Is he putting the team in around him to do something like this?
01:05:57.060 So the closest we have – I follow Polymarket very closely.
01:06:01.340 They've got odds on pretty much everything out there.
01:06:04.120 And the sort of tip of the spear on income tax repeal is starting with tax on tips, right?
01:06:10.740 That was the one that he most clearly promised.
01:06:13.680 And so that's kind of a proxy for whether we're going to start hacking away at the income tax.
01:06:20.040 So tax on tips is currently running 38% on Polymarket.
01:06:23.580 That's the number I'm watching.
01:06:25.340 That's encouraging because it means it's not just talk that, you know, people with capital behind them believe it's real.
01:06:32.160 But for sure, Congress is going to have to play ball if we're going to get a pig.
01:06:35.760 Yeah.

01:08:37.460 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:08:39.800 I've already decorated my Christmas tree.
01:08:41.560 I can't wait for Christmas.
01:08:44.260 And we have a Christmas album coming out.
01:08:47.020 And it has all of the Christmas standards on it.
01:08:50.200 You're going to love it.
01:08:52.120 It is Cheyenne Grace.
01:08:54.100 That is my daughter.
01:08:55.800 Just say no.
01:08:56.900 But I will tell you, I was...
01:09:00.940 I told her.
01:09:01.740 I am not going to put an album for sale on my show if it sucks.
01:09:10.180 I'm sure I'm into nepotism, but good nepotism.
01:09:13.600 You have to earn it.
01:09:15.320 So it's really good.
01:09:16.620 So it comes out in a couple of weeks.
01:09:18.360 We'll let you know.
01:09:19.500 Maybe as early as next week you'll be able to get it.
01:09:21.880 Most producers are able to know the release date of the album.
01:09:24.880 I know.
01:09:25.000 Well, you know, I was a little busy.
01:09:27.740 Oh, really?
01:09:28.460 I was a little busy.
01:09:30.100 So we were talking about the average person's take-home pay going from $58,000 to $88,000.
01:09:40.140 Oh, yeah.
01:09:41.020 What is this music?
01:09:44.240 Is this supposed to be like 70s porn music?
01:09:46.580 I do.
01:09:47.320 Yeah.
01:09:48.560 There's no women singing in 70s porn music.
01:09:51.500 Are you hearing the women?
01:09:53.360 Oh, there it is.
01:09:54.140 Yeah.
01:09:54.660 What is this?
01:09:55.180 Well, I don't know.
01:09:56.480 I'm not up on my...
01:09:58.040 70s porn music.
01:09:59.840 Oh, yeah.
01:09:59.860 You've never heard a parody of a...
01:10:02.860 In fact, you...
01:10:03.220 I have.
01:10:03.700 I thought this was pretty close, but...
01:10:05.200 It's not...
01:10:05.720 No.
01:10:06.140 What is this?
01:10:07.040 What is she singing about, Sarah?
01:10:08.940 She's just singing...
01:10:10.320 All right.
01:10:13.400 Stop.
01:10:14.180 So Stu, of course, is a little black rain cloud on the $58,000.
01:10:20.700 The average person's take-home pay, $58,000 to $88,000.
01:10:27.240 Okay.
01:10:27.760 Yeah.
01:10:27.920 Let me just lay this out briefly.
01:10:29.440 All right.
01:10:29.740 Go ahead.
01:10:29.920 Okay.
01:10:30.580 I like going from $58,000 to $88,000.
01:10:34.360 Oh, yeah.
01:10:34.800 You do like it.
01:10:35.420 Like, that's good.
01:10:36.340 You do like it.
01:10:36.540 I'm very much...
01:10:38.000 He wants it.
01:10:39.540 I am...
01:10:40.140 Look at the way he's dressed.
01:10:42.880 I...
01:10:43.920 StuDoesMerch.com has mugs that say, repeal the 16th Amendment.
01:10:47.880 Yeah, I know.
01:10:48.200 I know.
01:10:48.440 I know.
01:10:48.760 I know.
01:10:49.100 I know.
01:10:49.580 You're for it.
01:10:50.200 I'm for it.
01:10:51.040 Yeah.
01:10:52.300 I...
01:10:52.820 If...
01:10:53.740 If you can, do the three things needed in this plan.
01:10:57.420 One, eliminate the income tax.
01:10:59.560 Yeah, I think you could do that.
01:11:00.520 Two, cut spending by multiple trillions of dollars.
01:11:05.800 I think you might be able to do that.
01:11:07.680 You do those things, you can have any tariff you want.
01:11:10.300 I'm fine.
01:11:11.040 I don't even...
01:11:11.600 I don't like tariffs at all.
01:11:13.140 Mm-hmm.
01:11:13.520 And I would be...
01:11:14.300 I would be completely for eliminating all of them.
01:11:17.120 Right.
01:11:17.480 So...
01:11:17.600 However...
01:11:18.240 Yeah.
01:11:18.520 If you can do all that, I'm completely fine with whatever...
01:11:21.480 You can put 1 trillion percent tariffs on Chinese whatever goods, whatever you want.
01:11:27.620 Right.
01:11:27.860 I'm fine with it if you can do those other two things.
01:11:31.020 I'm...
01:11:31.420 Can we be honest about this?
01:11:34.380 Isn't it a bit of a fantasy to get those two things done?
01:11:37.460 I want these things to...
01:11:40.060 Lots of things are fantasies, too.
01:11:41.940 Until they come true.
01:11:42.820 I was surprised that...
01:11:44.120 I never thought it would have happened to me.
01:11:47.160 Oh, mister, he doesn't know porn.
01:11:49.180 He knows all the tropes.
01:11:50.960 And so it's interesting how you could just immediately go into the exact porn.
01:11:55.160 Oh, hey, the pizza delivery guy.
01:11:56.940 The thing he brought up over and over again.
01:11:58.940 All right, stop.
01:11:59.820 Apparently, his favorite part of all the movies is when the pizza shows up.
01:12:02.960 What a surprise.
01:12:05.600 He stops there.
01:12:06.820 He doesn't even make it to the sex.
01:12:08.580 He stops at the pizza.
01:12:09.880 That's exactly right.
01:12:11.700 Wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:12:13.060 Can you put the camera back on the pizza?
01:12:16.200 What's happening?
01:12:17.020 That looked good.
01:12:18.980 All right, anyway.
01:12:20.140 But I mean, come on.
01:12:21.900 Do we really...
01:12:22.860 May I say three words to you?
01:12:23.520 What I'm concerned about here, Glenn?
01:12:25.180 Two words, two letters, may I just say?
01:12:28.300 Yeah.
01:12:28.640 Roe versus Wade.
01:12:30.960 I would have said the exact same thing about Roe versus Wade being overturned.
01:12:34.580 Let me give you two other words.
01:12:35.520 That's true.
01:12:36.640 Three words.
01:12:37.960 President Donald Trump.
01:12:39.740 I would have also told you that would not occur in 2015.
01:12:43.820 I would have said that.
01:12:44.880 So it's...
01:12:45.800 So, look, miracles happen.
01:12:47.720 Yeah.
01:12:48.160 I agree with that.
01:12:49.140 Yeah, they do.
01:12:49.440 And maybe...
01:12:50.360 But it does, to me, noting my experience of the past 40 plus years of life, seems highly,
01:13:01.240 highly suspect that those two things will get done.
01:13:04.120 I have a feeling that the world's changed.
01:13:07.720 Mm-hmm.
01:13:08.400 And everything that we've known from experience...
01:13:11.360 Maybe you're right.
01:13:12.100 ...should go, buh-bye.
01:13:13.640 I like your world better than my world.
01:13:15.600 Yeah.
01:13:15.680 I want to make sure I'm clear on that.
01:13:17.440 But, like, what I'm concerned about here...
01:13:19.520 Mm-hmm.
01:13:20.100 ...is that you need...
01:13:22.480 Like, I would be surprised if they can't get a tax cut done.
01:13:26.560 They'll get something done.
01:13:27.900 Yeah.
01:13:28.060 ...on taxes.
01:13:28.540 They get a reconciliation bill.
01:13:29.720 They get one shot at that.
01:13:30.780 They have 50...
01:13:32.120 They are going to have 53 senators.
01:13:33.800 What part do you not think the American people will embrace 58,000 to 88,000 in take-home
01:13:42.780 pay?
01:13:43.340 I think they'll like that.
01:13:44.440 I think they'll...
01:13:44.860 They will love that.
01:13:45.960 What they will not like is hearing about all the programs that will go away.
01:13:50.160 Uh-huh.
01:13:50.480 And all the single...
01:13:51.840 And all you'll have to say is $58,000 to $88,000.
01:13:57.820 And, yes, I'm sure Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski and a bunch of other rhino senators will go
01:14:04.840 along with it.
01:14:05.080 If people stand up the way they've stood up, this is a positive thing to rally about.
01:14:09.040 I agree.
01:14:09.360 You don't think there would be marches all over?
01:14:12.220 You don't think he would just pack people by the buttload into stadiums across...
01:14:18.900 And just say, call your congressman.
01:14:22.760 Call your senator.
01:14:24.400 He would be able to rally American people like nobody else.
01:14:29.300 I mean, look, you need, what, 80%?
01:14:32.820 You need...
01:14:33.900 What is the percentage you'd need to cut the federal budget?
01:14:39.000 What do you mean?
01:14:40.000 Cut the federal budget.
01:14:41.100 For instance, Calvin Coolidge did this.
01:14:46.240 He cut the federal budget by 50%.
01:14:49.720 Yes.
01:14:50.160 And then he cut the budget again by 50%.
01:14:53.760 Incredible.
01:14:54.320 And he lowered the income tax from, like, 95% to, like, 5%.
01:14:58.840 You don't have to sell me on the Calvin Coolidge presidency.
01:15:01.820 I love Calvin Coolidge.
01:15:03.060 What do you...
01:15:03.480 I don't...
01:15:06.420 You know, what do you need to...
01:15:08.420 It's not like...
01:15:09.240 Who is listening to this show?
01:15:11.960 I don't know.
01:15:12.440 You don't have to sell me on Calvin Coolidge.
01:15:15.160 Oh, yeah.
01:15:16.300 Talk some more, Calvin Coolidge.
01:15:18.600 Is that before or after the pizza shows up?
01:15:21.580 Oh, my gosh.
01:15:22.780 What a nerd program this is today.
01:15:25.060 I would love Calvin Coolidge to come back to life and his policies to be passed.
01:15:31.180 But that's all that Donald Trump is saying.
01:15:33.380 Let's do Calvin Coolidge.
01:15:34.760 That gave a...
01:15:35.760 It was hard to...
01:15:36.760 In 1920...
01:15:37.400 Calvin Coolidge is known as a great president to conservatives because he accomplished something
01:15:41.840 very difficult.
01:15:42.780 You know why he did?
01:15:43.840 And I'm acknowledging that this is difficult.
01:15:45.260 Do you know why he did?
01:15:46.720 Because Woodrow Wilson, the progressive, just started gobbling everything up and everybody
01:15:51.880 went, I don't want that.
01:15:53.940 That was the uniqueness of Calvin Coolidge.
01:15:58.000 He was put into a situation where they scared the hell out of every American.
01:16:04.140 And they were like, okay, this isn't going to work.
01:16:06.900 I don't like that.
01:16:08.180 And that's why he put that in.
01:16:09.920 Why he was able to put that in.
01:16:11.920 I like...
01:16:12.760 And by the way, just let me just say the roaring 20s.
01:16:17.320 Yes.
01:16:17.660 At the beginning, nobody had a telephone, refrigeration, electricity.
01:16:21.940 By 1930, almost everybody had that.
01:16:25.720 I'll note, we're currently in the 20s.
01:16:28.620 It would be a nice little retro thing to have another roaring 20s.
01:16:32.380 It would be a great way to kick it off.
01:16:33.900 I am, of course, support these ideas.
01:16:37.080 Because, you know, and I think it's better than previous approaches, right?
01:16:41.880 Where previously it was like, well, what if we only increase the budget by 1% a year?
01:16:46.560 And in 10 years, we would be able to balance the budget.
01:16:49.440 Like those type of approaches, which are kind of technically maybe accurate, they don't inspire
01:16:56.280 anybody.
01:16:56.960 There's no excitement behind that.
01:16:59.200 This is what I've been asking for since 2010.
01:17:03.260 Who is stepping up with a moonshot idea?
01:17:07.280 Who is stepping up?
01:17:08.440 And Donald Trump is.
01:17:09.440 He's stepping up and saying, see that space that everybody says we can't get to?
01:17:13.940 We're going there.
01:17:15.760 I like it.
01:17:16.520 I like it.
01:17:17.540 I want it to happen.
01:17:18.420 I'm a bit skeptical that it can.
01:17:19.860 But hey, I've been totally skeptical that it will occur.
01:17:23.920 Right.
01:17:24.140 And I'm concerned because, look, we know that Donald Trump likes tariffs.
01:17:27.720 I am not a tariff guy.
01:17:30.200 But the problem is like you have two very difficult things to do, which is cut multiple
01:17:35.220 trillions of dollars from a budget, which there's been no appetite.
01:17:38.520 By the way, we should also note here that Donald Trump ran on multiple times, not digging
01:17:44.880 in to massive programs that are the massive major cause of our debt.
01:17:49.920 Things like Medicare, Social Security, Medicaid.
01:17:52.860 He doesn't want to touch those programs, which is OK.
01:17:55.480 I mean, he won the election on it.
01:17:57.040 I get it.
01:17:57.500 But like you can't cut 70 percent, 75 percent of your budget unless you touch those programs.
01:18:03.220 So wait, what do you say about this?
01:18:06.200 What do you say if Donald Trump proposes anyone making under $100,000 a year and we're not going
01:18:14.340 to combine salaries?
01:18:15.240 If you're married, we're not going to we're not going to punish you with a combined income.
01:18:20.500 OK, so 50K a person, 50K a person, 58K, you know, is the average salary, 58K, you know,
01:18:27.720 times two.
01:18:28.920 We're only going to count.
01:18:30.820 We're going to count both of you under 100,000.
01:18:33.260 You pay zero income tax.
01:18:35.280 Everybody above them pays a flat tax of 15 percent.
01:18:42.400 Yeah.
01:18:43.080 Thank you, Sarah.
01:18:44.060 All right.
01:18:44.760 Everybody wins in that.
01:18:46.940 Everybody wins.
01:18:47.760 I love it.
01:18:48.280 I love it.
01:18:50.000 First of all, you know what the media is going to do with that claim.
01:18:52.540 Who cares?
01:18:53.280 The media doesn't matter anymore.
01:18:55.660 I think I think there's something to that, but I think there would be a lot of it would
01:19:00.980 be difficult for a lot of these, let's say, purple state, purple district representatives
01:19:07.140 to go along with such things when their programs are being cut.
01:19:10.520 But OK.
01:19:11.420 All right.
01:19:11.780 We go through that process and we do that.
01:19:14.600 You know, I don't see how you cut the trillions of dollars out of the budget without touching
01:19:20.200 the programs that Donald Trump has promised not to touch.
01:19:23.160 So that would be a difficult thing to deal with.
01:19:25.660 And second, beyond that, he can just do the tariffs.
01:19:29.540 And the problem with the tariffs are if you go through this fantasy league situation where
01:19:33.540 all of this goes comes true and all of our wildest dreams are here and now you're depending
01:19:38.080 on tariffs to fund the government.
01:19:41.180 That's fantastic, except for the fact that if the tariffs work and we move all of our
01:19:46.600 manufacturing back to America, there's no one paying tariffs anymore.
01:19:50.640 So then you have no income there either.
01:19:52.780 So now you're cutting another 75 percent off, which, again, I'm probably fine with, but
01:19:57.160 I don't know that America is.
01:19:58.500 This is the reason why I want tariffs and I'm for tariffs in the first place.
01:20:03.240 We've got to build our manufacturing base back.
01:20:06.760 So if you just go, let's say you let's say you say you pay tariffs, you pay nothing here.
01:20:13.000 If you make it here, everybody moves back.
01:20:15.600 You give them a 15 percent income tax when the tariffs don't work anymore.
01:20:20.640 They're still they're not going anywhere because nobody's offering a 15 percent corporate tax.
01:20:28.500 Nobody.
01:20:28.980 So you're then reinstituting the you do in theory, you address that when you get there.
01:20:35.720 And probably the answer to all of this is there are less extreme options that sort of balance each
01:20:40.180 other out.
01:20:40.520 Right.
01:20:40.860 I don't really like that.
01:20:42.080 I don't either.
01:20:42.920 But I mean, we're not going to move all of our manufacturing back.
01:20:46.500 Like, obviously.
01:20:47.520 And nor that would that even be a good thing, frankly.
01:20:49.820 I mean, like if anything, we've learned that maybe having diversity of where places are,
01:20:54.840 where things are made is probably a good thing.
01:20:56.900 Right.
01:20:57.200 Yeah.
01:20:57.380 Because if we get a bad president here that says, hey, I'm going to shut down this industry
01:21:01.420 because I don't like it.
01:21:03.000 We want to make sure we that stuff is still being made somewhere in the world because Donald
01:21:07.340 Trump will not be president forever.
01:21:08.560 Think of that statement.
01:21:10.360 Yeah, you have to know one in their right mind.
01:21:13.800 Twenty five years ago, 30 years ago, any time in America would have said, well, except for
01:21:19.840 prohibition when the progressives were doing it.
01:21:22.980 Yeah.
01:21:23.100 Nobody would have ever said, well, they're going to destroy this industry.
01:21:27.280 They're just going to destroy it.
01:21:28.480 Nobody.
01:21:28.880 You didn't have that fear of the government.
01:21:32.300 You shouldn't have that fear.
01:21:34.920 It's crazy.
01:21:35.880 But I do have that fear.
01:21:37.340 I know.
01:21:37.780 That's why I worry about all this stuff whenever.
01:21:39.960 That's why this stuff has to be passed into law.
01:21:42.240 Yes.
01:21:42.540 Not just executive order.
01:21:44.240 All right.
01:21:44.420 Back in just a second.
01:21:45.360 Let me tell you about the Ministry of Preborn.
01:21:47.160 They are fighting for the lives of babies and they are fighting for the lives and the souls
01:21:51.380 of moms.
01:21:52.240 You know, about 68 percent of moms that go in and have an abortion don't want to.
01:21:56.860 They just feel alone.
01:21:58.660 They feel like they don't have anyone in their life that will help support them.
01:22:02.700 That has to come to an end.
01:22:04.900 We have to change the hearts and minds in this country, not the laws, the hearts and minds.
01:22:09.640 I'm proud to partner with Preborn because every day they sponsor free ultrasounds for
01:22:14.760 women as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born.
01:22:19.720 When a mom sees her unborn baby on that monitor, she hears the heartbeat.
01:22:23.440 She's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.
01:22:27.160 So would you donate twenty eight dollars?
01:22:29.820 Twenty eight bucks would save a baby, at least double the chances of that baby living.
01:22:35.220 Would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?
01:22:38.540 If you've had a great year, tax deductible donation of fifteen thousand dollars will
01:22:43.060 place an ultrasound machine in needy women's centers, saving countless babies for years
01:22:48.120 to come.
01:22:48.620 Donate.
01:22:49.000 Just dial pound two fifty.
01:22:50.300 Say the keyword baby.
01:22:51.260 That's pound two fifty keyword baby or go to preborn dot com slash back.
01:22:55.460 That's preborn dot com slash back.
01:22:57.360 All gifts are tax deductible and preborn has a four star charity rating.
01:23:01.780 Fight for babies.
01:23:03.760 Fight, fight, fight.
01:23:05.900 Sponsored by Preborn.
01:23:06.840 You're listening to the swingin' sounds of Glenn Beck.
01:23:11.000 Sit tight, boys and girls.
01:23:12.800 We'll be right back after these messages.
01:23:31.120 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:23:32.980 We're glad you're here.
01:23:33.600 Let me play a couple of pieces of audio that came out yesterday.
01:23:39.380 Let's play cut one.
01:23:40.340 This is from CBS News.
01:23:42.300 On the campaign trail, President-elect Donald Trump repeatedly promised to launch what he
01:23:46.440 calls the largest deportation operation in American history, targeting undocumented
01:23:51.300 immigrants.
01:23:52.240 By the way, there are roughly 11 million undocumented immigrants living in this country today.
01:23:56.920 And the CBS News analysis found it would cost up to $216 billion over Trump's next term to
01:24:03.540 deport them all.
01:24:05.060 Just to break that down, that's $54 billion per year.
01:24:07.920 Oh, no.
01:24:08.160 For comparison, last year's budget allocation for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement
01:24:11.900 was just $9 billion.
01:24:14.000 But beyond the price tag, the bigger question is, how exactly would these massive deportations
01:24:20.180 work?
01:24:20.840 Trump has said he'll deploy the National Guard to detain undocumented immigrants, tap into
01:24:25.440 local law enforcement to keep track of them, and ramp up workplace raids.
01:24:30.100 He has pledged to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which allows the president to detain
01:24:36.720 and remove immigrants during wartime.
01:24:39.240 The last time it was used was during World War II for the internment of Japanese Americans.
01:24:43.920 By who?
01:24:44.120 Of course, Congress later apologized and provided reparations for Japanese internment.
01:24:48.820 By who?
01:24:49.240 Who did they apologize for?
01:24:49.260 What was the action?
01:24:50.380 Acknowledging that it was rooted in racial prejudice.
01:24:53.220 Right.
01:24:53.520 By who?
01:24:53.940 By who?
01:24:54.540 Yeah.
01:24:54.840 They never mention that.
01:24:56.140 Yeah, I know.
01:24:56.340 They just name him the best president of all time.
01:24:58.360 You know, Donald Trump needs to have, needs to not take credit for this one thing being
01:25:04.580 the biggest, even though I think it will be the biggest.
01:25:07.180 He needs to say, how are we doing this?
01:25:09.760 Exactly the way Bill Clinton did this.
01:25:12.060 He deported 11 million people in eight years, and nobody said a word.
01:25:19.660 Most people don't even know Bill Clinton deported more people in the United States than any other
01:25:27.460 president by far.
01:25:30.160 And nobody said anything then.
01:25:32.140 Why are we talking about this now?
01:25:33.820 You know how I'm going to do it?
01:25:35.020 Exactly the way Bill Clinton did it.
01:25:37.360 I'm just going to take the recipe from the Democratic Party.
01:25:41.880 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:25:43.940 Let me tell you about Jace Medical.
01:25:45.400 Trump is going to be back in office, and it's excellent news for the country.

01:27:57.000 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:01.980 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:28:05.320 So he hates women so much, Donald Trump, that he is, I'll tell you, he is going to just keep them in the kitchen or his cabinet or as chief of staff, which no woman has ever done before.
01:28:22.600 He hates them that much. He's going to give them those positions.
01:28:26.060 He hates minorities. He hates the brown folks so much that he's going to make Marco Rubio the secretary of state, which he would then be the highest position Hispanic in the U.S. government.
01:28:43.740 I'm just saying, that's how much he hates.
01:28:47.220 Man, is he a bad Hitler.

01:29:48.400 Hello, Stu.
01:29:49.300 Hi, Glenn.
01:29:50.360 Yeah, yeah.
01:29:51.360 I love this week.
01:29:54.240 Last week was great.
01:29:56.040 This week's shaping up to be another great week.
01:29:58.160 Today's one week since the election.
01:29:59.980 Oh, darn it.
01:30:00.560 I think about that week and all the wonderful things that have happened.
01:30:02.940 There's a lot to be thankful for as we approach Thanksgiving.
01:30:07.340 If I had to ask you, Stu, what is the thing that you are most grateful for?
01:30:11.840 I think the thing I'm most grateful for, Glenn, is the fact that the thing that really cost Kamala Harris the election was the view.
01:30:23.860 I freaking love it.
01:30:27.100 I think that's absolutely true as well.
01:30:29.620 You remember, it was on the view where they said, what would you change?
01:30:33.960 I don't think anything.
01:30:35.680 You know, I just, it was perfect.
01:30:37.960 I don't, would you, every woman at home was like, oh my God.
01:30:41.780 She doesn't go to the grocery store.
01:30:44.980 It's fantastic.
01:30:45.720 Yeah, that, how many times, Glenn, did we sit on here yelling about the one question with the, somebody needs to ask.
01:30:54.260 Right.
01:30:54.580 Is what, give me one single example of something you would change, something you oppose, something you went to Biden and said, hey, you got to change this man.
01:31:02.660 And he wouldn't do it.
01:31:03.440 We didn't think there would be a reporter in the world that would ask her that question.
01:31:07.660 And do you remember when it happened, we were live on the air.
01:31:10.340 Yeah.
01:31:10.620 When it happened.
01:31:11.680 And I was shocked.
01:31:13.380 Yeah.
01:31:13.840 The, the one person who finally stepped up with the correct question, the most basic, obvious question that needed to be asked to Kamala Harris was somebody on the view.
01:31:24.340 I don't remember who it was.
01:31:24.980 Was it Sonny?
01:31:25.560 I don't even remember who it was.
01:31:26.640 Yeah, I don't know.
01:31:26.960 I don't remember all their names.
01:31:28.160 But, like, it was incredible.
01:31:31.520 And so, really, like, this went immediately into Trump ad after Trump ad after Trump ad after Trump ad.
01:31:38.900 Uh-huh.
01:31:39.380 And it, I think, arguably, was a key, was the difference.
01:31:45.040 It was at least a key thing.
01:31:46.500 No.
01:31:46.640 Because they tried to hide that fact for a long time.
01:31:49.960 She's, she's the change candidate.
01:31:51.580 We talked about this on and off the air.
01:31:53.500 How can you convince the American people that the vice president of the United States is not the change candidate?
01:31:59.920 Why isn't this working?
01:32:00.980 This should be obvious.
01:32:02.760 And the, what we came down to was someone needs to get her on the record saying what she would change.
01:32:08.480 And the answer was she couldn't think of anything.
01:32:11.720 After having three months to prepare for that question, she had nothing.
01:32:17.860 And what's interesting about this, and one of the, I think, the, I think the truth of that moment is the left-leaning media ecosphere all knew what they had to do.
01:32:32.420 They all understood their role here.
01:32:34.640 They all knew, just like I know, just like you know, just like everybody in the audience knows, Kamala Harris has absolutely no ability whatsoever to think on her feet.
01:32:45.500 They all knew that.
01:32:47.440 They all were 100% in on the same information that any human being should be able to suss out from watching her for 10 seconds.
01:32:55.840 She can't do this.
01:32:57.780 So, they very carefully catered and tailored their interviews to make sure she would never be put in that position.
01:33:09.440 They were very, very careful with what they asked her, how they asked her the questions.
01:33:16.040 When they asked difficult questions, quote unquote difficult questions, they would provide answers in the questions so that she could latch on to what they said and she could just go along with it.
01:33:25.500 They did everything they could to massage those interviews to get her through her weak points.
01:33:32.780 They knew where her weak points were.
01:33:34.580 And while the left is wrong on a lot of things, they're not idiots.
01:33:37.560 The problem is the view are idiots.
01:33:40.760 Every single person on the cast is a moron.
01:33:43.580 And those people, those idiots, didn't understand the game.
01:33:49.440 They were so stupid.
01:33:50.960 They thought the pitch of Kamala Harris as this strong, independent, brilliant woman was real.
01:33:57.000 They thought to themselves, oh, we can ask that question.
01:33:59.420 That's an easy question.
01:34:00.340 Of course she'll have an answer for it.
01:34:01.020 If you were asking a hard question and you're the view and you want that candidate to win, you'd say, I'm going to ask you a hard question.
01:34:08.360 You know, you might want to think about, you know, what you would do differently.
01:34:12.060 Yeah.
01:34:12.460 And then you would ask that question.
01:34:14.280 They would leak it to them in advance.
01:34:15.840 Yes.
01:34:16.180 Off record.
01:34:16.880 One way or another.
01:34:17.760 That's what they did with the debate.
01:34:19.760 I mean, why not?
01:34:21.360 The view, that's how stupid they are.
01:34:23.740 They actually thought she'd be able to answer that.
01:34:27.200 Yeah.
01:34:27.360 And can you imagine how all of their hearts sunk when she said, really nothing?
01:34:32.940 They all must have gone, oh, dear God, I'm stupid, but not that stupid.
01:34:36.380 And then when they saw their stupid faces in tens of millions of dollars of ads against their candidate, when they're telling everybody in there, oh, this is going to be Hitler.
01:34:49.860 The reason Adolf is in power is you, dummy.
01:34:53.360 I love every bit of this.
01:34:58.620 I really wish I had Elon Musk money because I would just do an ad.
01:35:02.880 I'd buy up every single ad on ABC that hour for, you know, for weeks just gloating.
01:35:10.540 Hey, you know those women on the couch?
01:35:12.860 Boy, they're brilliant.
01:35:14.220 Oh.
01:35:14.960 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:35:16.340 Whatever campaign money Donald Trump has, right, they should do a giant thank you to the women of The View for their role in getting Donald Trump elected.
01:35:27.440 I love this narrative.
01:35:29.240 By the way, I'm not the only person thinking, James Carville came out in an interview and said that was the key moment in the campaign.
01:35:35.560 The big mistake she made was not having an answer to that question, and it was The View.
01:35:40.120 How did you not have an answer?
01:35:42.360 It's just, it's incredible.
01:35:44.980 Because, I guess, because she really was going to do the same thing.
01:35:50.280 And it wasn't her doing it.
01:35:52.520 It was whoever is running this country right now.
01:35:55.020 So, you know, whoever the president is, whether that's Barack Obama or a committee and a star champ, I don't know who actually is running the place.
01:36:03.460 But she was like, well, I'm just going to keep doing what, you know, what we're doing now.
01:36:09.340 I mean, this is a great plan.
01:36:11.520 And she didn't, she really.
01:36:13.440 I mean, she is, you'd think she's aware enough to know that's a problem.
01:36:16.880 I mean, if you watch her ads, though, I think she did.
01:36:20.060 She said stuff like she was going to be tough on the border.
01:36:22.620 Those were written for her.
01:36:23.920 They were, but she knows the approach.
01:36:26.740 She knows that what they were trying to do.
01:36:30.040 The reason why she wasn't doing interview after interview after interview at the beginning is she knew her own weakness.
01:36:35.320 She knew that this was the.
01:36:37.780 She thinks she's in a friendly room.
01:36:39.680 Right.
01:36:40.260 And she is in a friendly room.
01:36:41.500 Yes.
01:36:42.140 But the friendly room is dumb.
01:36:44.400 It's a bunch of dumb idiots.
01:36:46.760 You know.
01:36:47.320 Who don't know the game.
01:36:48.120 They don't understand it.
01:36:49.100 They are the victims of the Democrats here.
01:36:53.560 Because the Democrats and Kamala campaign tried to manipulate their dumb voters into thinking, actually, she's tough on the border.
01:37:04.480 Actually, she's really smart.
01:37:05.960 Actually, she's a strong, tough woman.
01:37:07.720 All the dumb things.
01:37:08.740 But what they didn't realize is the view is they're dumb.
01:37:11.880 They are the dumb voters.
01:37:13.700 They're the victims.
01:37:14.960 They're the people falling for your messaging, not helping you along with it.
01:37:18.640 They're morons.
01:37:20.060 And they all fell for it.
01:37:21.620 And they sunk the campaign.
01:37:23.380 And I love it so much.
01:37:25.300 I can't even describe how much I love it.
01:37:28.680 I love the fact that Joy Behar is in the middle of getting Adolf Hitler, quote unquote, elected.
01:37:37.940 It's so amazing.
01:37:40.140 I don't think it could have come out any better.
01:37:42.260 Do you know why?
01:37:43.600 You know why people are so stupid?
01:37:45.880 No, seriously.
01:37:46.680 Why they're so stupid on the other side?
01:37:48.840 Because they haven't had themselves thrown up against the wall for the last 20 years.
01:37:54.040 Nobody has thrown them up against the wall.
01:37:57.080 Nobody has challenged them in any real way.
01:38:00.500 Because they've controlled all of the institutions.
01:38:04.780 And so they knew, well, it doesn't matter.
01:38:08.420 Orange man bad.
01:38:09.820 And you'd get an honorary doctorate from Yale.
01:38:12.980 And your dumb audience will clap for you.
01:38:14.700 Correct.
01:38:15.020 And everybody just keeps, because you're not challenged, you don't have a chance to actually, in your own head, fight that battle.
01:38:25.860 You're not thinking about, well, what happens if I say that?
01:38:29.220 And if I say that, then this is going to happen and this is going to happen.
01:38:32.520 Because you're protected by everybody in these institutions.
01:38:37.180 They didn't realize those institutions were over.
01:38:41.620 They were over.
01:38:43.280 They were so bloated, so fat, so arrogant, because no one's challenged them.
01:38:52.200 They just were living in their own little dummy bubble.
01:38:56.060 And when all of a sudden Joe Rogan comes up and he's like, yeah, I got 100 million people watching this.
01:39:04.500 And they're like, well, we got 20 million to watch a debate, which everybody in America was supposed to watch.
01:39:12.860 It's over.
01:39:14.360 It's over.
01:39:15.120 Yeah.
01:39:15.800 It's fantastic.
01:39:17.360 It's really a legitimately positive.
01:39:19.000 But watch what they're doing now.
01:39:20.240 They're not going to get smarter because there's no honest questioning even now.
01:39:25.100 They're still in the same bucket going, you know what?
01:39:30.180 They're Nazis.
01:39:31.720 They're just all Nazis.
01:39:33.240 Half the country is a Nazi.
01:39:35.080 What it's been is essentially to expand the accusations of racism and sexism to Hispanics and black people.
01:39:42.120 Yes.
01:39:42.460 Right now they're racist.
01:39:43.780 You're running out of people to call racist.
01:39:46.540 You're running out of people.
01:39:47.760 And people have pointed this out a few times over the past couple of weeks.
01:39:51.340 But there was this big piece.
01:39:52.540 It was Matthew Iglesias who wrote it.
01:39:54.000 Somebody wrote it about how, like, hey, you know, the left missed essentially this giant shift into what people care about, the podcast world and those types of things, those types of audiences.
01:40:04.860 And the right essentially successfully built some level of ecosphere outside of just talk radio with podcasters, people like Joe Rogan.
01:40:14.500 And one of the answers to this was, hey, like, well, we need to come up with our own left-leaning Joe Rogan.
01:40:21.660 And people pointed out, though, guess who that was?
01:40:26.380 Joe Rogan.
01:40:28.060 Joe Rogan was the left-leaning Joe Rogan until you people all went insane.
01:40:32.520 He was endorsing Bernie Sanders for president.
01:40:36.700 And what did they do when he did that?
01:40:39.700 They bashed Bernie Sanders and said the correct response to Joe Rogan is to ostracize him because he says things that are mean sometimes.
01:40:48.780 And they attacked him and they wouldn't go back on his shows.
01:40:51.820 And people who did go on his shows got ostracized.
01:40:54.340 And they did this so consistently and went so insane with things like, you know, women playing or men playing in girls sports and all this.
01:41:03.840 And he's taking horse medicine.
01:41:05.620 And horse medicine and all this stuff.
01:41:07.160 They went so insane.
01:41:08.180 They turned their left-leaning Joe Rogan into right-leaning Joe Rogan.
01:41:13.480 And they turned left-leaning Elon Musk into right-leaning Elon Musk.
01:41:18.920 They did this to themselves.
01:41:20.420 Back in just a second, let me tell you, there's a break-in every 26 seconds in the U.S.
01:41:25.860 Now, did I, you know, has it happened to you yet?
01:41:30.060 I don't know.
01:41:30.740 It hasn't happened to me yet.
01:41:32.120 But, you know, the back of the napkin math, that's over 3,000 break-ins a day.
01:41:37.540 I don't want to roll the dice.
01:41:39.320 Let me tell you about SimpliSafe.

01:42:34.500 10 seconds, Station ID.
01:42:35.460 Here's the view discovering that he got three.
01:42:55.920 You know, a lot of people thought that when he talked about mass deportations, he wasn't being serious.
01:43:02.640 I don't know how many times he had to say it for people to realize he was being serious.
01:43:07.220 Well, if you thought he wasn't being serious, the appointment of Tom Homan today as border czar,
01:43:13.140 and he will be in charge of a mass deportation program, the largest the country has ever seen, they say.
01:43:19.060 And now Stephen Miller, as Deputy Chief of Staff, should let you know that he was absolutely serious.
01:43:26.180 And when you talk about mass deportations, people think, oh, it's just going to be the criminals.
01:43:31.260 There's not enough criminals, aliens in the federal prison system for it to be mass deportations.
01:43:38.700 What it means is grandmothers.
01:43:40.580 What it means is brothers and aunts.
01:43:43.300 What it means is abuelos y abuelas.
01:43:46.220 It means dreamers.
01:43:47.400 It means family members.
01:43:49.520 It means your colleagues.
01:43:51.120 It means your friends.
01:43:52.360 It means people who are part of the society.
01:43:54.860 And look, America, you know, those of you who voted for Trump, this is what you wanted.
01:44:00.320 This is what you voted for.
01:44:01.900 You screwed around and you're about to find out.
01:44:04.560 No, we're not.
01:44:05.020 We didn't screw around.
01:44:06.000 We're all for that.
01:44:07.040 We're all for that.
01:44:07.900 You're here legally.
01:44:09.340 I love you.
01:44:10.120 You be my friend, my neighbor, anything.
01:44:12.100 If you're here illegally, you can go out and then come back in legally.
01:44:16.580 You're going to be put to the back of the line.
01:44:18.560 But you can do that.
01:44:19.420 I'm fine with that.
01:44:20.520 I have no problem.
01:44:22.440 I have a problem with an open border where we don't know who anybody is.
01:44:26.720 And if you're here illegally, bye-bye.
01:44:29.620 And by the way, stop this crap.
01:44:31.560 You don't know what it's going to be like.
01:44:32.960 You have no idea.
01:44:33.680 Bill Clinton is the president who deported more people than anyone, any other president by far.
01:44:44.560 And he deported 11 million illegals.
01:44:49.900 So I don't remember the 90s being internment camps.
01:44:53.720 Do you?
01:44:54.120 Do you remember that?
01:44:55.260 In fact, the Democrats supported those policies at the time.
01:44:57.460 You're already seeing it.
01:44:58.940 People are already leaving.
01:45:00.900 The people in Mexico, remember there were 150,000 in Mexico that the Mexicans had held back
01:45:06.620 because the Biden administration said don't let them cross, hold them until the election,
01:45:11.220 and then they can cross.
01:45:12.760 Most of those people turned around and went away because they realized, oh, I'm not going in now.
01:45:19.300 I'm going to be shipped back.
01:45:21.360 Hello?
01:45:22.780 That's how it works.
01:45:24.680 Yeah, when you don't put up a giant sign that says, please come here, you generally speaking are going to solve a decent portion of the problem.
01:45:33.500 It takes more than just tone.
01:45:35.500 But, I mean, we saw this at the beginning of the Trump administration.
01:45:38.760 When the tone was right, people just decided they didn't want to come.
01:45:43.580 And, look, I love this pitch here of like, we're talking about grandmas.
01:45:48.500 Have grandmas broken the law?
01:45:50.100 Grandmas that break the law get treated like regular, you know, grandsons that break the law.
01:45:56.980 It doesn't matter what your title is.
01:45:59.320 Are you here illegally?
01:46:01.440 If you're here illegally, you shouldn't be here.
01:46:03.800 That's all.
01:46:04.820 This is a basic concept.
01:46:07.040 It doesn't matter what, you know, what level of maternity or paternity you've found yourself in.
01:46:12.620 The bottom line is, if you've broken the law by coming here, then, yes, you do need to leave.
01:46:18.240 And, yes, he was serious about that.
01:46:19.860 I don't think anybody was downplaying how serious he was about kicking people out that were here illegally.
01:46:26.880 Well, then you were a moron, which makes sense because you're watching The View.
01:46:31.000 By the way, let me play this.
01:46:33.080 This is CNN's fear of Elon Musk.
01:46:36.360 Listen to this.
01:46:37.080 Mar-a-Lago has basically been brimming for the last two days, I'm told, with two kinds of people.
01:46:42.560 Those angling for a job and those who are trying to influence Trump into hiring their picks.
01:46:48.240 But one person has loomed over all of that.
01:46:51.300 His name is Elon Musk.
01:46:52.540 Oh, my.
01:46:53.100 Multiple sources tell me tonight that Musk has been seen at Mar-a-Lago nearly every single day since Donald Trump won.
01:46:58.920 Oh, no.
01:46:59.340 Dining with him on the patio at times.
01:47:01.920 Today, they were seen on the golf course together.
01:47:03.760 Musk has been in the room when world leaders have called Trump.
01:47:07.600 And tonight, we've learned he's also weighing in on staffing decisions, making clear his preference for certain roles even.
01:47:13.860 Publicly, tonight, Elon Musk is backing Florida Senator Rick Scott as the next leader of the Republican conference to replace Mitch McConnell.
01:47:21.580 Which he didn't get.
01:47:22.200 While Musk himself is still not expected to take any kind of formal position inside Trump's administration, given how complicated it would be with his companies,
01:47:29.540 What's becoming clearer tonight is that he doesn't really need to, with one source telling me Elon Musk is having just as much influence from the outside.
01:47:37.880 Wow, how bad is that?
01:47:41.180 The Edison of our time is trying to help the president recreate the golden era that Edison benefited from, and so did all of us.
01:47:55.020 Wow, that's a problem.
01:47:56.860 Not Elon Musk.
01:47:58.740 Not a guy who I disagree with a lot on some things and agree with a lot on some things.
01:48:05.380 Probably one of the more reasonable billionaires out there.
01:48:10.220 Yeah.
01:48:11.880 Sucks.
01:48:12.700 I'm glad he's there.
01:48:14.820 I'm glad he's there.
01:48:16.620 And it's not being hidden.
01:48:18.940 Donald Trump is not having secret meetings.
01:48:22.340 You know, it's open for everybody to see.
01:48:25.880 He shouldn't be ashamed of that relationship.
01:48:29.280 And Elon Musk, I mean, he just doesn't care.
01:48:32.580 And neither does Donald Trump.
01:48:35.380 Glenn Beck.
01:48:37.580 You know what is a really great feeling?
01:48:42.080 Talking a bunch of crap to the guys about being a great shot and then actually being a great shot.
01:48:49.900 It requires practice and a lot of it.
01:48:52.620 And that can get expensive if you're having to use ammunition all the time and go to the shooting range.
01:48:56.980 But it's worth it, you know, to show off the guys.
01:48:59.520 I'm just saying it's expensive, but worth it.
01:49:01.340 The good news is with Mantis X, you can cut out a lot of the expense and the time at the gun range as well.
01:49:07.920 It's a high tech, easy to use system used widely first by the Marines and now the entire military.

01:50:01.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:50:13.760 We're glad you're here.
01:50:16.260 There are so many good things that have happened.
01:50:23.260 We have some good appointments going on.
01:50:26.180 And we, I think, have, we've restored our confidence in the, the election process.
01:50:33.760 I mean, unless you listen to these kooks on the other side that are now just making stuff up.
01:50:38.620 Uh, we had enough Republicans there and they had enough Democrats there with attorneys to be able to stop any cheating either way.
01:50:50.380 It's not the best system, but at least we have confidence in the system.
01:50:54.660 I think that is fantastic.
01:50:56.980 We also learned how to play the game a little better.
01:51:00.160 You know, we, we sucked at, at getting the vote out.
01:51:03.920 Not anymore.
01:51:05.860 Moms for Liberty is one of those organizations that really worked miracles.
01:51:12.040 Tina Deskovich is with us now.
01:51:14.660 She's the co-founder of Moms for Liberty.
01:51:16.820 Hi, Tina.
01:51:18.040 Good morning, Glenn.
01:51:19.120 How are you?
01:51:20.380 I'm fabulous.
01:51:21.460 How are you?
01:51:21.960 I'm really good.
01:51:22.900 You've been, you've been spending some time down in Mar-a-Lago.
01:51:26.640 Yes.
01:51:27.120 I'll be there again this week.
01:51:29.200 Yeah.
01:51:29.520 And how is the president?
01:51:31.800 Um, you know, he's fabulous.
01:51:34.400 I know.
01:51:35.160 I know.
01:51:35.480 So, um, so let's talk a little bit about the election wins that you guys helped come true.
01:51:44.800 Yeah, it's, it's really remarkable, you know, Moms for Liberty, most of us, just moms haven't
01:51:49.200 really been involved in politics before or elections.
01:51:51.960 And so, uh, we took a big risk this year, I would say, and invested $3 million in Arizona,
01:51:58.780 Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin.
01:52:00.520 And we put the money behind our moms and to see what they could do.
01:52:04.800 We targeted 200,000 moms in each state that aren't really voting.
01:52:10.140 They voted maybe once, maybe not at all in the last four years.
01:52:13.960 And, uh, we spent six months courting them, sending them videos and information on the
01:52:19.400 Title IX rewrite, on things going on in their local school districts that would, uh, enrage
01:52:24.300 any parent that's paying attention.
01:52:25.880 And then for, you know, the last two months before the election, we worked to turn them
01:52:29.780 out.
01:52:30.260 And the results so far are remarkable.
01:52:33.760 It's almost shocking.
01:52:35.180 For example, in Georgia, um, they, uh, broke records, I think with 73% voter turnout overall.
01:52:42.180 And our early vote turnout alone of those 200,000 moms was 75%.
01:52:47.880 So we don't even have a day of election results yet.
01:52:50.740 So we know we activated brand new voters across all four states.
01:52:54.160 It's remarkable.
01:52:54.960 Um, so you invested $3 million in your get out the vote, uh, effort, just in Arizona,
01:53:02.940 Georgia, North Carolina, and Wisconsin.
01:53:05.500 Um, which state do you think you had the bigger impact in or were you worried most about?
01:53:11.640 Um, I think we had the biggest impact in probably two states.
01:53:15.780 I would say Georgia and, um, I'd say Georgia and North Carolina, Arizona being very close,
01:53:22.600 uh, in third place.
01:53:23.840 Wisconsin, it's still hard to gauge.
01:53:26.060 Uh, there wasn't as long of an early voting period and a male voting period.
01:53:29.140 And so, um, we still beat the state average, uh, before election day even started with our
01:53:35.700 early voting, but it's, it was down by 40, you know, I think 46% we had our, of our, um,
01:53:41.020 non-voters plus their voter records in Wisconsin are terrible.
01:53:44.100 Uh, people, uh, people, we know people that left the state three years ago that were still
01:53:48.560 registered there actively to vote while registered in other states.
01:53:52.000 And so it's a little harder to track in Wisconsin.
01:53:54.620 So, uh, tell me, um, your feeling on Trump actually getting rid of the department of
01:54:02.660 education.
01:54:04.260 We're pretty excited around here.
01:54:06.560 You know, moms for liberty was founded to get education, uh, back front and center in
01:54:11.560 the conversation, both locally and nationally, you know, year after year, we were watching
01:54:16.000 presidential debates where education wasn't even discussed.
01:54:18.680 And, uh, you know, it's been in decline since the department of education was created, you
01:54:23.700 know, two thirds of American kids can't read on grade level, lowest math and reading scores
01:54:27.800 in the history of the United States.
01:54:28.960 And so the only solution is to dismantle the department of education.
01:54:33.360 If you're watching on X and other places, uh, the president is putting out his videos,
01:54:38.080 uh, directly speaking to the American people saying it's time to dismantle it and put education.
01:54:43.000 I do want to say Glenn, though, I was even at church on Sunday and people were pulling,
01:54:46.560 no, he can't really dismantle the department of education.
01:54:48.880 What will kids do?
01:54:49.920 What about education?
01:54:50.740 I'm like, no, no, no, you don't understand.
01:54:52.640 It belongs with the states.
01:54:54.060 It belongs locally.
01:54:55.380 It belongs with the parents.
01:54:56.660 And so, um, I think we have to educate America on what this really means.
01:55:00.540 It is a good thing for our country and our kids.
01:55:03.300 So let me give you, let me give you something from the Washington post in 1978.
01:55:07.780 Okay.
01:55:08.520 A department of education was the op-ed, uh, with a question mark.
01:55:12.360 It didn't exactly come as an earth shaking surprise that president Carter last Friday
01:55:15.820 asked Congress to create a department of education.
01:55:17.840 The creation of such a department separate from, uh, Hugh, H E, uh, H E W was explicit
01:55:24.600 Carter campaign pledge, blah, blah, blah.
01:55:27.160 Uh, it goes into all of this stuff and it said, um, uh, let's go back for a moment to
01:55:34.120 the argument about, uh, zooming into the stratosphere budget.
01:55:38.180 After all, the same argument can be made about the various armed services that were gathered
01:55:42.260 into the defense department.
01:55:44.540 Um, uh, they also talk about the labor department, the commerce department.
01:55:49.360 We don't cite the labor and commerce departments casually to the extent that they are basically
01:55:54.620 one constituency organizations of government.
01:55:58.060 They provide another cautionary note.
01:56:00.380 One of the principal risks of creating a creature of its clientele, the clientele would not necessarily
01:56:07.280 be the school children and their parents affected by the federal government's education programs.
01:56:12.060 Much more probably, uh, would be the national education association, the organizations of
01:56:19.320 teachers and school administrators who already exert a great deal of influence on education
01:56:24.920 policy in Washington.
01:56:26.000 In a way, this would be giving them their own department.
01:56:29.900 So here's the Washington post in 1978 saying, this is going to create a problem with the labor
01:56:35.120 unions.
01:56:35.780 They're going to take over and this is only to benefit them, not the kids.
01:56:41.700 Now the Washington post would say the opposite, but what they predicted back then came true.
01:56:47.780 One hundred percent.
01:56:48.960 Just look at the photographs of Randy Weingarten and other teachers union leaders at the white
01:56:53.660 house all the time, hug in the neck of Jill Biden and Joe Biden.
01:56:57.620 Uh, they are fierce allies.
01:56:59.720 99% of the funds that they donate to candidates go to Democrats, um, coming out of the NEA.
01:57:06.220 You know, you can track all of that.
01:57:08.020 Uh, it's really disgusting.
01:57:09.500 It is a department of the teachers union and it's not acceptable.
01:57:13.520 I mean, like I said, you know, kids can't read, kids can't do math and, uh, it's time
01:57:18.340 to dismantle it and return it where it needs to go.
01:57:20.480 So you've decided, um, as moms for Liberty to launch your own book series, um, and try
01:57:27.380 to get these into the schools.
01:57:29.100 Your first one, uh, launches this week, uh, and it's, uh, Libby justice goes to Williamsburg.
01:57:37.480 Tell me about it.
01:57:38.600 Oh, we are so excited.
01:57:40.080 So Tiffany, my co-founder, her last name is justice.
01:57:43.060 Uh, and so Liberty justice is the perfect name for our main character.
01:57:46.760 Her brother is link Lincoln.
01:57:48.380 Uh, we named him after my first grandson, his name is Lincoln and these two go on adventures
01:57:54.460 and Glenn, we need quality literature so bad for our children.
01:57:58.040 And the first one they go to is Williamsburg, Virginia.
01:58:00.880 And she learned how to public speak from Patrick Henry and Gowan pamphlet.
01:58:04.840 And if you don't know who he is, you need to buy our book because he's a historical figure,
01:58:09.020 uh, right there in Virginia.
01:58:10.340 Also, we are very excited.
01:58:12.840 We're hoping this will be a series of many books and we'll be in link, uh, travel around
01:58:16.360 with their family to other historical sites and learn about the Patriots and the founders
01:58:20.540 of our country and have respect for them as the heroes that they are.
01:58:23.480 I mean, in that I'm, I'm calling them the, the Trump fireside chats where he's explaining
01:58:29.660 everything that he is going to do.
01:58:31.420 Um, he talks about this, that we have to bring under control our education system.
01:58:37.820 So we learn about our founding.
01:58:39.640 Again, we learn about the principles of who we were, not just all this DEI crap that's
01:58:46.100 got to go.
01:58:47.180 Um, I, I think we're, I think we are entering a new golden age of America.
01:58:52.760 If, if we remain calm and, uh, well thought out and well prepared for what the left is going
01:59:00.760 to do.
01:59:02.120 And we stay focused on the things that are important.
01:59:04.760 Don't get, as my mom would say, too big for our britches.
01:59:07.520 Yes.
01:59:08.000 Yes.
01:59:08.540 You know, it's important that we stay focused on, on God and our country and the, on our
01:59:13.760 families and, uh, don't let power or success or control of all three branches of government
01:59:19.380 go to, go to our head.
01:59:20.720 You know, I, I, I don't, I'm optimistically cautious, but I think it's important that we
01:59:25.820 put the important things first.
01:59:27.740 Tina, thank you so much.
01:59:28.760 God bless you.
01:59:29.300 Thank you, Glenn.
01:59:30.720 You bet.
01:59:31.200 Moms for Liberty co-founder.
01:59:34.260 Let me tell you about American financing.
01:59:36.280 I want you to consider doing something radical, something crazy, something so nuts.
01:59:39.960 No one will even believe you're doing it.
01:59:41.960 You ready?
01:59:43.120 I want you to start getting yourself out of debt.
01:59:45.420 Yeah, I know.
01:59:46.440 Crazy.
01:59:47.120 Oh, those people are weird.
01:59:49.480 More than that.
01:59:50.340 I want you and your family to have your financial house in good working order.
01:59:54.200 Here's the thing.
01:59:54.980 Before you panic, I don't want you to do it alone because this is exactly the sort of thing
01:59:59.820 that American financing does best.
02:00:01.800 Over the last two decades, American financing has been helping people like you get to where
02:00:06.640 they need to be.

02:00:10.080 So give American financing a call.
02:00:11.840 You might be surprised at the options that you didn't even know you had from mortgage,
02:00:16.180 refi, to other forms of debt consolidation, even accessing the high equity that you have
02:00:21.180 in your home to pay off high interest debts.
02:00:23.600 American financing could be saving you hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as a thousand.

02:01:02.280 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
02:01:21.120 We're glad you're here.
02:01:23.880 I want to play a piece of audio here.
02:01:25.820 This is Oprah denying she's been paid by the Kamala campaign.
02:01:30.440 Listen.
02:01:30.840 Hey, Oprah, good morning.
02:01:33.600 How are you, darling?
02:01:35.140 You're looking very good.
02:01:36.120 How do you think the election went?
02:01:37.860 Not talking about the election.
02:01:39.420 Thank you very much.
02:01:39.940 Oh, is it true that they paid you a million dollars for the endorsement for Kamala?
02:01:43.580 Not true.
02:01:44.620 Not true.
02:01:45.180 Okay.
02:01:45.740 I was paid nothing ever.
02:01:48.180 Okay.
02:01:49.040 So she was paid.
02:01:50.520 She looks great.
02:01:51.700 She looks like, I think most people look like when they just rolled out of bed and don't
02:01:55.520 expect a camera on their face.
02:01:57.000 Yeah.
02:01:57.300 It's kind of really unfair to do this to people.
02:01:59.480 Totally.
02:01:59.800 But so she was just asked, were you paid?
02:02:04.620 Because it looks as though Harpo was paid a million dollars to produce that crappy thing
02:02:12.040 that did nothing.
02:02:14.220 And I don't know.
02:02:15.860 I'm not an attorney, but she might have had to have been paid.
02:02:21.520 So if she hasn't been paid, well, then you might, well, it might be a contribution in
02:02:28.000 kind.
02:02:28.780 Right.
02:02:28.920 Like, so the way that that campaign finance law works, like it's not her saying you need
02:02:34.160 to pay me a million dollars for an appearance.
02:02:36.260 Supposedly, at least the accusation is that her company produced it.
02:02:40.140 And you might say, well, they should have just taken zero dollars if they really cared, but
02:02:44.240 they can't take zero dollars.
02:02:46.040 They supposedly have to, they have to charge a market rate for what they're doing.
02:02:52.360 Because if not, then it's essentially a donation.
02:02:54.620 Like, so they would have, every campaign would find ways around this, right?
02:02:58.380 You can't, you can only give a certain amount to a campaign.
02:03:01.340 Well, what if I give you a stadium for free?
02:03:05.440 I own a stadium.
02:03:06.320 I'm giving you a stadium for free.
02:03:07.440 Well, that would be a donation to the campaign.
02:03:10.580 They're getting something that should cost them money that doesn't.
02:03:13.280 So in theory, if she actually produced this event, she would need to charge.
02:03:17.260 Now, I don't know.
02:03:17.940 Does she need to charge a million dollars?
02:03:19.240 Maybe she could have charged less.
02:03:20.820 And the other side of this too is Oprah's a billionaire.
02:03:22.980 Does she really care about a million dollar payment?
02:03:26.800 Like, I think she would, she probably donated a fortune to super PACs, probably much more than
02:03:32.500 a million dollars.
02:03:33.300 So I don't know.
02:03:34.680 I'm not saying that these people aren't selfish and terrible in many, many ways, but it seems
02:03:38.340 odd that she would do that.
02:03:40.220 It seems like.
02:03:40.880 Yeah.
02:03:40.900 Cause she did, I mean, she just didn't, she, she, she doesn't need the money.
02:03:45.640 No, she's got plenty of cash.
02:03:47.440 Now there's something interesting that I found that, you know, they blew a billion six.
02:03:52.860 They're now saying it was a billion six.
02:03:55.340 Oh, wow.
02:03:56.040 You're saying on the campaign?
02:03:57.260 Uh, a billion six.
02:03:59.620 In what?
02:03:59.960 Four months?
02:04:00.680 Yeah.
02:04:01.560 So that's what they had in the Harris victory fund.
02:04:04.440 It's all gone.
02:04:05.220 They're still missing 20, uh, 20 million.
02:04:07.520 They they're in the whole 20 million and they're sending an,
02:04:10.900 email to donors now and listen to this.
02:04:13.160 I think this is hysterical.
02:04:14.860 Is there anything we can say to convince you to make a contribution to support the
02:04:19.100 Harris fight fund program today?
02:04:21.880 Does that not sound desperate?
02:04:23.500 Is there anything we can say to you?
02:04:25.200 Fundraising emails are pathetic.
02:04:26.760 First and foremost, we want to acknowledge the fear, confusion, and sadness.
02:04:30.400 Many of you are feeling at this moment, but would you give a minimum of $50?
02:04:35.520 But what if we told you, um, that as you read this, there are U S Senate and house races that
02:04:42.000 are either too close to call or within the margin of recounts for certain legal challenges.
02:04:47.040 What if we told you that they all need our help to get across the finish line?
02:04:52.300 And what if we told you that your support today would help make sure we succeed and count every
02:04:57.380 vote in these final races?
02:04:58.840 They're still lying.
02:05:01.180 They're trying to make up the $20 million and they don't have it.
02:05:05.580 Remember the last time in 2016, no, sorry, 2012, Obama went into the hole and why did the,
02:05:17.120 uh, DNC suddenly throw their weight behind Hillary instead of Bernie?
02:05:23.980 Because the Clintons bailed them out with like 20, uh, $20 million.
02:05:28.620 The Clintons gave it to them.
02:05:31.300 So she had, she had them in her control.
02:05:36.220 Now they're 20 million in the hole after $1.6 billion and the nerve of the people on the
02:05:44.360 left, they're saying, Donald Trump, he's got all this money left over.
02:05:48.620 You can't, we, we got odd that because he's just going to give it to all of his friends.
02:05:54.200 What?
02:05:55.000 He's going to give it to him.
02:05:55.780 No, that's what you do.
02:05:57.380 That's what you do.
02:05:59.020 Just, they're just projecting.
02:06:00.600 They said that about the green energy stuff too.
02:06:03.640 We've got to spend this quickly.
02:06:06.020 Otherwise he'll just assign all of this money and give it to his pals.
02:06:10.880 Again, that's what you do.
02:06:12.640 How about not spending it?
02:06:16.780 Yeah.
02:06:17.220 How about that?
02:06:18.440 We're multiple trillions of dollars in debt.
02:06:21.060 Maybe apply it right to the debt.
02:06:22.700 I mean, that's one way to do it.
02:06:24.300 Right.
02:06:24.660 You know, of course, a lot of this money probably was just printed.
02:06:28.040 You'd be just returning it, uh, to whoever created the incinerator.
02:06:33.020 Right.
02:06:33.700 Uh, but it'd be better.
02:06:35.000 And that was, uh, that's true.
02:06:36.960 A lot of these programs would just be better off if you just threw them in the incinerator.
02:06:40.960 If you just threw the money in the incinerator rather than locking in these programs for years
02:06:44.200 and years and years and years and years, which is an incredible admission because at the end
02:06:48.840 of the day, these programs do basically no good and then we get locked into them and have to keep
02:06:54.040 spending at those levels, which brings me back to my skepticism on this government.
02:06:58.280 What if we told you that Mussolini was coming back from the dead
02:07:04.660 and was going to be his new vice vice president, would you donate then?
02:07:16.660 The Glenn Beck Program.
