00:03:46.800 chuck so uh this new bill in california where hey insurance companies you got to pay out you got to

00:03:54.760 pay out okay all right okay that might sound good but see it's all in the balance here

00:04:02.800 although it's california you're not going to have any insurance and i'll explain and because you're

00:05:31.160 you don't get it do you you just don't get it california uh they're they're they're uh now

00:05:38.500 talking about and i had to check see if this was a april fool's joke but it's not they're they're

00:05:43.580 passing a new bill now where insurance companies have got to pay out if you put a claim in okay

00:05:52.020 all right good and they can't wait they can't hold you back they can't hang on just a second they can't

00:05:59.740 they can't hold back if you have the claim they can't hold back okay good that's what you might

00:06:06.140 be thinking good and it is good if you're really sick and you need something that's good but have

00:06:12.740 you seen the scams that are happening in our country right now not everybody now i say that

00:06:20.780 and i have to say at the same time have you seen the insurance companies lately some of them just like

00:06:25.560 to screw you to the wall so what is the answer well let me tell you the tale of two stories one is

00:06:33.420 how a lot of people see the insurance company they imagine the insurance company as a giant grumpy

00:06:39.520 dragon that is sitting on a pile of gold just waiting there i'm a dread we gotta have the i'm a

00:06:45.320 dragon i like gold i'm not gonna let anybody have my gold okay and you're the brave you're the brave

00:06:53.020 knight why won't this go away you're the brave knight i thought of the rest of the day i'm gonna

00:06:57.440 be doing the show in a cave you're the brave knight who's been paying this dragon monthly a tribute every

00:07:03.220 month and the dragon said you know i'm gonna take care of you and then when a disaster happens you go

00:07:10.980 to the dragon and he's supposed to swoop in and save you with all of the gold sounds like a great deal

00:07:17.060 right but here's the catch dragons like gold so when you come running and screaming hey i need help

00:07:24.780 my house is burned down the dragon's like yeah i said i i set it on fire of course i'm fire breathing

00:07:31.000 dragon i set it on fire and i'm not going to pay for anything either is the dragon the only one in

00:07:35.160 the cave he's the only one in the cave yeah speaking i don't know why he could fly outside the cave i don't

00:07:39.180 know why you can fly to the guy and still be in the cave but he's a big dragon okay big dragon okay

00:07:42.900 uh so he's like i'm not really sure that that was actually a fire well i'm not sure that was a fire

00:07:50.580 you know did you fill out form 37b in triplicate and i'm going to need six weeks to think about it

00:07:56.240 while i sit on my pile of gold that's the way most people think of insurance companies that they're

00:08:01.460 sitting on a pile of gold and uh they're never going to help you and they just have you file out

00:08:06.580 all kinds of forms now part of that is true with some insurance companies some insurance companies 0.93

00:08:15.560 suck others don't should they suck no are we going to cure this by saying everybody has to be paid 0.56

00:08:29.020 and immediately and we can't we can't stall or anything at all no that's not going to solve it 0.99

00:08:36.520 it's going to make it worse now here's the way i look at an insurance company imagine insurance company

00:08:44.180 as a massive neighborhood potluck where everybody in the community has to bring a dish that's their premium

00:08:51.120 you come on in you got to bring a dish and i prefer if you're really really fat because you like to eat

00:08:57.640 you bring a bigger dish okay but everybody brings a dish and the head chef let's call her carla hey 0.99

00:09:05.380 i'm carla back here just managing the potluck that's all i'm doing everybody comes in and has to contribute

00:09:11.320 something and maybe you bring a ten thousand dollar casserole i don't know because you've got a bigger

00:09:16.540 house and you're i don't know super super fat okay somebody else brings a five thousand dollar salad 0.98

00:09:22.840 which i would never ever what's a five thousand dollar salad what i mean how could it possibly be

00:09:28.040 that much i would question the salad and i wouldn't need it anyway but i'd say to myself it's five

00:09:32.320 thousand dollar it's got to be a good salad but then i'd realize it's a salad anyway let's not focus

00:09:37.540 on the salad here the idea is that everybody brings something in and puts it at the table

00:09:42.100 and if your house burns down like in a california wildfire or you need surgery after breathing in too much

00:09:48.900 smoke you can take a big helping from the potluck table to cover all the costs that's the way

00:09:54.680 insurance is supposed to work with the idea that not everyone is going to need a plate at the table

00:10:03.520 that big at the same time because if everybody says i need that too i want to eat like the fat fat fatty

00:10:11.340 over there and they don't need to eat like the fat fat fatty then what happens nobody has food

00:10:17.980 eventually you run out of carla is a little smoked all right i'm just sitting here back back here 0.59

00:10:24.620 smoking cool cigarettes wondering what the hell how am i supposed to feed all these people

00:10:28.580 she has to have enough food on the table for everybody who needs it 1.00

00:10:34.160 but she also knows she's got to run the potluck next week too

00:10:40.120 so if you let everybody take everything that they want whenever they want the table will be empty

00:10:47.340 in about an hour there's nothing left for the disaster carla has to be a little stingy 1.00

00:10:53.160 i know your house burned down but i need to make sure that your house actually did burn down

00:10:58.600 before i give you some more mashed potatoes let me just check on that first she's not trying to rip 1.00

00:11:04.860 you off if she's with a good insurance company she's making sure the potluck just doesn't turn 1.00

00:11:10.460 into a free-for-all where the table gets cleared out and the whole system collapses now let's bring in 0.96

00:11:15.980 luigi hey it's me luigi i love shooting people in the head on the street okay anytime you have a ballot 0.96

00:11:23.460 measure where you're making that guy the good guy your state has a problem 0.96

00:11:29.060 so it's not a new potluck rule here carla you can't make wait anybody wait for their plate

00:11:37.440 for the insurance okay or the food you can't you can't say no to anybody who's hungry

00:11:42.820 okay well i've got a hundred people right here and they're all telling me they're hungry

00:11:48.260 and they're all telling me it's an emergency and i know some of them are going to take some of that

00:11:52.640 food and put it into a purse and hold it for later and that's not what this is about i gotta feed the

00:11:58.980 people who are hungry but if i have to serve everybody right away no questions asked okay

00:12:04.140 then i run out of food and guess what then i don't have any food for anybody

00:12:07.980 carla's not wrong she's been running the numbers

00:12:14.260 it's actually bad sous chef he's an actuary named dave he's got a spreadsheet

00:12:21.520 anyway he's looking at dave says you know after the 2018 campfire i mean we served up 12 billion

00:12:29.200 dollars worth of plates to victims uh we can't do this anymore because we only had that much because

00:12:35.940 70 percent of the folks at the potluck didn't need a plate that year they brought their own casseroles

00:12:41.900 and salads but they didn't their house didn't burn down they didn't they didn't come starving at the

00:12:46.540 table if everybody is starving at the table and they all come in to cash we're not going to have

00:12:54.080 enough food that's what insurance companies are and california just doesn't seem to understand this

00:13:04.280 insurance is almost a casino

00:13:08.100 the way bad insurance runs they run it like a casino where the house always wins no matter what

00:13:18.360 you're like bing bing bing bing i won and it's like nope sorry sorry you didn't win uh

00:13:24.900 glitch in the machine somebody make this guy go away that's the way bad insurance run

00:13:32.140 but in insurance it's not a guarantee it's a bet that this company is taking on you

00:13:40.500 that's why you know back in the old timey days when you know we were sailing across

00:13:44.800 the sea and i don't know there were mermaids and sea monsters that would take down the ships back i'm

00:13:50.940 talking the old old timey days you know back in like the 1940s and you had to have insurance for

00:13:57.300 your ships and there were these you know english guys who were like well this is my ship and i'll

00:14:02.540 guarantee that ship and it's got some so there's some tea on it and maybe some snuff lots of snuff on 0.93

00:14:08.820 it somebody had to underwrite that in case the ship went down so the snuff people didn't go out of

00:14:16.720 business so the tea people didn't go out of business but if all the ships claim to have gone down

00:14:23.660 the guy who's underwriting all of the insurance doesn't have any more money left so then nobody

00:14:31.180 gets any money it's a bet the problem is our government has made insurance so deeply in bed

00:14:40.960 with the government and then you have these politicians who let's be honest are only attorneys

00:14:47.080 that's all they are their attorney have you ever liked an attorney honestly have you ever

00:14:53.360 except for on tv maybe you liked an attorney on tv but you don't like attorneys you might like them

00:14:59.980 until you find out they're an attorney he's a really good guy then i found out he was an attorney

00:15:04.280 but nobody wants to hang out with attorney nobody wants to work for a company run by attorneys

00:15:10.480 i don't even think attorney firms want to work for attorney firms because they're all run by attorneys

00:15:15.220 they don't know how to do anything except say no

00:15:20.240 oh gosh that's what our states are like they're all run by attorneys

00:15:26.520 and these attorneys think they can craft some legalese that will make everything right you can't

00:15:33.000 if our society is rotten to the core then our businesses are going to be rotten to the core and

00:15:39.600 no amount of fancy 500 attorney words are going to fix that

00:15:44.940 everything we have in our society is built on trust

00:15:50.800 you know why the insurance company is going out of business because it can't trust that there aren't

00:15:58.700 people bilking the system you know why you don't have why you get really upset

00:16:05.240 when your mother is sick and you can't get the insurance that that was promised to you

00:16:09.800 because you have insurance companies that are bilking the system 1.00

00:16:13.740 everybody has to play fair but california are you really this stupid you just 1.00

00:16:21.460 what was it like 40 of the people whose house burned down 1.00

00:16:26.840 was because they didn't have insurance because these evil insurance companies canceled

00:16:31.340 because you can't control the fires every year everybody's house seems to burn down or slide

00:16:37.040 into the ocean from mud

00:16:38.400 you can't the insurance companies can't afford it

00:16:43.260 and you won't let them raise the rate so they're just like okay well then i'm not doing business here

00:16:47.860 what do you think's going to happen on this

00:16:49.900 now some of this might be needed i don't know i'm not from california don't care to be from california 0.85

00:16:55.340 don't read that much about california because they're all insane

00:16:59.100 but what do you think's going to happen with this

00:17:04.480 here's what's going to happen they're going to raise the rates and then you're going to say you

00:17:09.860 can't raise the rates and then when you force them to make sure that everybody gets coverage

00:17:15.260 and you can't ask any questions and so fraud goes through the roof

00:17:18.240 then what will happen is they'll go out of business or they'll say we're going to go out of business

00:17:23.780 because california is telling us we can't raise the rates

00:17:27.660 so we're going to get out and then you know what those attorneys will do you can't leave california

00:17:32.540 you can't leave

00:17:34.620 and then what happens

00:17:36.740 i don't know how this story ends we should look into carl marx i bet he has a good ending for that

00:17:42.840 story let me tell you about pre-born

00:17:44.820 case you still might be on the fence whether

00:17:47.540 joe biden was a guy that was a good president or not here's a little fun fact for you

00:17:51.680 his administration loosened all kinds of restrictions on the chemical abortion pill

00:17:56.100 didn't require the nih to report the injuries it was causing to the women who took it

00:18:00.420 and now to this day this little pill is bringing death to babies and injury

00:18:04.240 and death to moms and some of them are teenagers 1.00

00:18:07.260 pre-born is about changing the hearts and minds of people

00:18:11.120 when it comes to the abortion issue you're never going to outlaw it

00:18:14.080 you never we have to change hearts

00:18:16.640 by showing an unexpecting or an expecting mother

00:18:20.760 a free ultrasound of her unborn child

00:18:23.780 she sees the unexpected

00:18:25.380 and that is wow it's not just a lump of flesh

00:18:28.020 it's it's actually a child

00:18:29.520 and that increases the chances

00:18:31.380 dramatically that she's going to choose life

00:18:33.980 for that baby

00:18:34.620 they're doing god's worth the work on earth every single day

00:18:37.860 and they need your help because

00:18:39.100 most women are choosing abortion 1.00

00:18:41.820 because they just don't think they can afford the baby

00:18:43.700 they have no help or support at home

00:18:45.300 and that's why pre-born is there for up to two years after the baby is born

00:18:48.620 and i've seen them change lives

00:18:50.880 one ultrasound is 28 dollars

00:18:53.300 140 helps rescue five babies

00:18:55.520 you're not going to regret the choice to save lives

00:19:11.160 10 seconds station idea

00:19:12.300 it was a complicated analogy

00:19:23.580 and a lot of that was right 0.99

00:19:24.860 purely shooting out of my butt 0.99

00:19:26.440 so did that make sense 0.99

00:19:27.560 was that

00:19:28.000 did I get that right

00:19:29.280 I think so

00:19:30.960 well yes it was a journey

00:19:32.700 I will say

00:19:34.060 that's not a good review

00:19:35.420 it was like

00:19:36.120 it's not a good

00:19:36.640 I wouldn't eat at that restaurant

00:19:38.080 with

00:19:38.460 it was a journey

00:19:40.340 it was like the last season of game of thrones

00:19:42.420 I was a little

00:19:43.260 I was a little confused

00:19:44.380 but you got us there I think at the end

00:19:46.820 all right

00:19:47.380 okay

00:19:47.760 all right

00:19:48.400 uh

00:19:49.620 am I reading this wrong

00:19:50.820 what's happening in California

00:19:51.840 no I think you're right

00:19:52.940 I mean it's shocking

00:19:54.180 shocking

00:19:55.200 they just don't get it

00:19:56.660 and I'm really disgusted

00:19:58.880 by the hero worship 1.00

00:20:00.700 of this loser 1.00

00:20:01.560 it's really revolting 1.00

00:20:03.820 I don't even want to say his name

00:20:04.980 but the fact

00:20:05.900 they're really making him

00:20:06.820 on the left

00:20:07.220 he's just a celebrity

00:20:08.140 in a lot of circles

00:20:09.080 he's just this like great guy

00:20:10.340 who did this great thing

00:20:11.240 he just murdered a dad

00:20:12.120 on the side of the

00:20:12.700 as he's walking on the sidewalk

00:20:14.300 murdered a father

00:20:15.700 so let me just ask

00:20:16.640 because the whole show today

00:20:17.860 is just

00:20:18.160 can we think these things through

00:20:19.260 can we just

00:20:19.700 I just

00:20:20.240 critical thinking

00:20:21.800 we just have to ask some questions

00:20:23.400 so let me just ask you some questions

00:20:24.780 when did it become okay

00:20:27.760 just to gun somebody down on the street

00:20:29.680 because 0.96

00:20:30.220 you feel

00:20:31.820 they

00:20:32.560 and when I say they

00:20:33.780 I don't mean

00:20:34.680 them

00:20:35.320 that individual

00:20:36.460 but somebody they

00:20:38.380 work with

00:20:39.600 some industry

00:20:40.480 they are in

00:20:41.860 somebody they represent

00:20:43.020 that it's okay 1.00

00:20:44.180 to kill them 1.00

00:20:45.220 I mean 0.99

00:20:46.460 it's certainly not

00:20:47.740 Glenn

00:20:48.040 I mean

00:20:49.060 and in a

00:20:49.760 right 0.99

00:20:50.020 in a pathetic 0.99

00:20:50.980 way 0.98

00:20:51.580 and I don't mean this

00:20:52.400 with any

00:20:53.340 like direct

00:20:54.680 like line

00:20:56.160 for this being true

00:20:57.400 but like

00:20:57.900 when it happened

00:20:59.280 there was this thought

00:21:00.340 that I think

00:21:00.680 it went through

00:21:01.060 everybody's mind

00:21:01.800 which was like

00:21:02.800 this kid's

00:21:04.600 dad

00:21:05.780 was denied a claim

00:21:08.060 by this company

00:21:09.580 and this CEO

00:21:10.880 had some

00:21:11.960 hand in it

00:21:12.860 it wasn't even

00:21:14.500 close to that

00:21:15.520 it was this like

00:21:16.480 really poorly

00:21:18.260 thought out

00:21:19.240 generalized

00:21:20.460 awful 0.95

00:21:21.340 liberal 0.78

00:21:21.860 critique

00:21:22.420 of healthcare

00:21:22.940 the healthcare

00:21:23.940 industry

00:21:24.320 and it was like

00:21:25.220 he even said

00:21:27.160 in his manifesto

00:21:28.380 I'm not the best

00:21:29.620 guy to explain it

00:21:30.480 because I don't really

00:21:31.020 understand it

00:21:31.640 but this is terrible

00:21:32.560 yeah

00:21:32.940 like I'm sorry

00:21:33.640 if you're not the best

00:21:34.360 guy to understand it

00:21:35.120 maybe you don't murder

00:21:35.780 people on the side of the road

00:21:36.620 like would it be okay

00:21:37.380 for me

00:21:37.840 after that explanation

00:21:38.940 of insurance 0.96

00:21:39.500 to go murder 0.94

00:21:40.060 somebody in the street

00:21:40.980 no

00:21:41.280 maybe

00:21:42.160 well it would be me

00:21:43.680 I was going to say

00:21:44.100 maybe the person

00:21:44.680 that helped write

00:21:45.180 that analogy

00:21:47.000 but that would be me

00:21:47.900 so would it be okay 1.00

00:21:48.700 for me to kill my 0.99

00:21:49.500 I'm confused 0.99

00:21:50.980 I'm confused again

00:21:51.880 you're deep into

00:21:52.740 another analogy

00:21:53.440 I will say

00:21:54.320 you've talked so much

00:21:54.900 about AI

00:21:55.440 run it through AI

00:21:57.500 please

00:21:57.980 next time you're

00:21:58.860 running a manifesto

00:21:59.660 can you put it

00:22:00.200 through chat GPT

00:22:01.220 let Grok have a shot

00:22:02.580 at it

00:22:02.920 so at least it makes

00:22:04.020 some freaking sense

00:22:04.940 at least it looks

00:22:06.060 like you've thought

00:22:06.680 about this

00:22:07.080 after taking a man's life

00:22:08.240 you know

00:22:08.840 there are going to be

00:22:10.260 times where people

00:22:11.460 let's say

00:22:11.840 let's say

00:22:12.540 truckers

00:22:14.540 go on strike

00:22:15.460 and that makes

00:22:16.900 the price of your eggs

00:22:17.820 go up

00:22:18.240 and everything else

00:22:19.120 goes up

00:22:19.620 okay let's just say

00:22:20.660 yeah that happens 0.98

00:22:21.560 and your family

00:22:23.800 is really struggling

00:22:24.760 and you are barely

00:22:26.060 making it

00:22:26.820 and you know

00:22:28.500 you lost your house

00:22:29.620 because you couldn't

00:22:30.320 afford food

00:22:31.280 and the house

00:22:32.600 you had to buy

00:22:33.300 the food for the family

00:22:34.280 so you lost your house

00:22:35.200 would that make it

00:22:36.280 okay to go up

00:22:37.020 to some random 0.91

00:22:37.760 trucker and shoot 1.00

00:22:38.660 them in the head 1.00

00:22:39.300 no

00:22:40.180 right

00:22:40.980 that's what we're

00:22:42.120 talking about here

00:22:43.200 and I don't understand

00:22:45.040 when did that

00:22:46.600 become okay

00:22:47.640 for half the nation

00:22:49.000 when did that

00:22:50.340 become okay

00:22:51.300 so okay

00:22:52.200 that one of the

00:22:54.180 50 states

00:22:55.320 can introduce

00:22:56.560 a bill

00:22:57.240 where that guy

00:22:58.220 is referenced

00:22:59.020 in a positive way

00:23:00.260 I mean

00:23:05.540 that's going to be

00:23:10.100 the theme of the show

00:23:10.820 how do we even

00:23:11.540 talk to each other

00:23:12.300 honestly

00:23:13.220 how do we talk

00:23:13.960 to each other

00:23:14.400 I'm going to show you

00:23:15.600 how we can talk

00:23:16.320 to each other

00:23:16.880 hopefully on a few

00:23:17.860 issues today

00:23:18.680 just stick around

00:23:20.560 we've got a lot more

00:23:22.780 and most of it

00:23:23.740 will be understandable

00:23:25.060 coming up

00:23:26.280 this is

00:23:33.040 Glenn Beck

00:23:34.720 all right

00:23:36.160 I want to talk to you

00:23:36.760 about the

00:23:37.620 International Fellowship

00:23:38.460 of Christians and Jews

00:23:39.440 if you're like me

00:23:40.300 you're a firm supporter

00:23:41.340 of the Jews 0.57

00:23:41.840 in the state of Israel

00:23:42.640 and most of the time

00:23:43.560 that manifests

00:23:44.320 in the way you say

00:23:45.600 the way you say

00:23:47.540 it

00:23:47.640 and how you pray

00:23:49.400 but if I told you

00:23:50.860 that there was a way

00:23:51.460 to stand up for Israel

00:23:52.300 with real tangible action

00:23:54.060 on top of the things

00:23:56.000 that you say

00:23:56.480 and the things

00:23:57.020 that you pray

00:23:57.780 would you do it

00:23:59.380 it's one thing

00:24:00.920 to stand up

00:24:01.400 against the rise

00:24:01.980 of anti-semitism

00:24:02.880 both in our country

00:24:03.640 and around the world

00:24:04.240 ever since the heinous acts

00:24:05.400 of October 7th

00:24:06.500 over a year ago

00:24:07.500 and that's incredibly

00:24:08.940 important to stand up

00:24:10.100 and say it

00:24:10.600 but also our spiritual

00:24:11.580 brothers and sisters

00:24:12.400 over the Middle East

00:24:13.180 still face significant

00:24:14.500 security threats

00:24:15.360 every single day

00:24:16.800 from their enemies

00:24:17.520 and that's true

00:24:18.740 all over the world now

00:24:20.900 the International Fellowship

00:24:22.400 of Christians and Jews

00:24:23.360 is on the ground

00:24:24.100 in Israel

00:24:24.700 and they know this

00:24:25.440 better than anyone else

00:24:26.800 and they need your help

00:24:27.700 they're providing

00:24:28.580 Israelis with life-saving

00:24:31.180 security essentials

00:24:32.080 things like bomb shelters

00:24:33.160 armored security vehicles

00:24:34.380 ambulances

00:24:35.000 firefighting equipment

00:24:36.120 flak jackets

00:24:37.300 bulletproof vests

00:24:38.380 give a gift

00:24:39.500 to bless Israel now

00:24:57.340 slash glenn

00:24:58.380 I want to talk to you about

00:25:19.640 can we just talk about

00:25:22.080 common sense today

00:25:22.880 just common sense

00:25:24.780 and critical thinking

00:25:26.380 I think that's the problem

00:25:28.220 with our nation

00:25:28.720 nobody understands

00:25:30.120 critical thinking

00:25:31.040 so let's take one story here

00:25:32.920 and this is the

00:25:34.360 the woman who got hit

00:25:36.140 by the bus

00:25:36.660 Virginia

00:25:37.080 how do you say her last name

00:25:38.220 Jaffray

00:25:39.080 Jaffray

00:25:39.720 okay she's the one

00:25:41.680 okay she's the one

00:25:41.700 that was in the picture

00:25:44.420 with Jeffrey Epstein

00:25:45.800 at I don't know

00:25:48.900 the island or someplace

00:25:49.900 with Prince Andrew

00:25:52.120 okay

00:25:52.700 and I believe she's a victim

00:25:54.720 I don't have anything

00:25:57.060 to back that up

00:25:57.980 other than

00:25:58.540 I believe

00:25:59.680 I believe Prince Andrew 0.99

00:26:01.200 is an absolute dirt bag 0.99

00:26:02.840 and I believe 0.99

00:26:03.980 you know

00:26:04.500 that Jeffrey Epstein 0.62

00:26:05.760 was also a major dirt bag

00:26:07.700 and so why was this young girl

00:26:09.320 with Prince Andrew

00:26:11.360 with his arm around her

00:26:13.100 you know

00:26:13.620 standing in somebody's house

00:26:16.260 I mean it just

00:26:16.940 I don't

00:26:17.380 I'm sorry

00:26:17.840 okay

00:26:18.980 but that's me making a judgment

00:26:20.700 that's not legal

00:26:21.420 that's just me making a judgment

00:26:22.700 okay

00:26:23.340 so the story came out yesterday

00:26:25.640 and it is everywhere now

00:26:27.160 and everybody is like

00:26:28.820 you know

00:26:29.200 you know 0.98

00:26:29.640 the FBI is trying to kill her 0.99

00:26:30.860 so 0.91

00:26:31.040 she can't make it to the testimony

00:26:33.060 what

00:26:33.560 I knew Jeffrey Epstein

00:26:35.860 wasn't dead

00:26:36.440 he's driving a bus

00:26:37.300 in Perth Australia

00:26:38.900 he's

00:26:39.780 what

00:26:40.020 you don't

00:26:43.140 you don't buy that

00:26:43.920 no

00:26:44.220 strangely I don't

00:26:45.780 it would be an interesting twist

00:26:47.320 to the story

00:26:47.840 it really would

00:26:48.840 now she apparently has

00:26:50.040 four days to live

00:26:51.420 from what date

00:26:53.660 what

00:26:54.200 what is the

00:26:55.360 okay

00:26:55.900 let me just

00:26:56.440 yeah

00:26:56.800 that's a weird part

00:26:58.160 I agree

00:26:58.460 okay

00:26:58.840 let me just give you

00:26:59.960 some questions

00:27:00.840 and this does not mean

00:27:02.180 that she's not telling the truth

00:27:03.660 that she's not got four days to live

00:27:05.560 or two days

00:27:06.760 at this point

00:27:07.160 I don't know how many days she has

00:27:08.660 okay

00:27:09.040 it

00:27:09.740 it doesn't mean that I don't believe the story

00:27:12.160 it just means

00:27:13.120 can

00:27:13.920 can we just stop

00:27:14.900 and ask some critical questions

00:27:17.280 and I'm going to do this to every story today

00:27:19.360 okay

00:27:20.060 the article mentions

00:27:22.560 Lady Victoria Hervey

00:27:24.380 as the source of the claim

00:27:26.560 that

00:27:27.640 she only has four days to live

00:27:29.600 now

00:27:30.400 I don't know

00:27:31.160 Lady Victoria Hervey

00:27:32.740 do you

00:27:34.040 I know

00:27:35.240 Hervey Villages

00:27:36.540 the little

00:27:37.160 the plane

00:27:37.900 the plane

00:27:38.480 from Fantasy Island

00:27:39.340 I don't know who this woman is 1.00

00:27:40.800 so who is she

00:27:42.400 what's her relationship

00:27:43.440 to this woman

00:27:44.580 does she have a history

00:27:46.720 of reliable

00:27:47.440 reporting

00:27:48.440 does she have

00:27:49.460 any bias

00:27:50.380 she's a lady 1.00

00:27:51.520 does she have a problem 0.97

00:27:52.620 with Prince Andrew

00:27:53.400 I don't know

00:27:54.200 but that's the first question

00:27:56.960 we should ask is

00:27:57.660 who is this woman 1.00

00:27:59.020 that's claiming

00:27:59.760 all of this stuff

00:28:00.680 then the next question is

00:28:02.800 are there any primary sources

00:28:04.960 of the accident claim

00:28:06.460 well

00:28:07.660 no

00:28:08.980 no

00:28:10.020 uh

00:28:10.440 her spokesperson

00:28:13.240 they

00:28:15.380 they said

00:28:16.160 you know

00:28:16.580 that

00:28:16.780 she's in the hospital 0.93

00:28:18.300 okay

00:28:19.340 can we get some

00:28:20.820 independent verification

00:28:21.880 of any of this

00:28:22.660 I believe she's in the hospital

00:28:23.660 I believe she's sick

00:28:24.480 don't get me wrong

00:28:25.240 but what

00:28:27.860 happened

00:28:28.660 why is there a lack

00:28:31.040 of official evidence

00:28:32.120 or statements

00:28:32.940 from any authorities

00:28:34.140 the article notes

00:28:35.400 that as of March 31st

00:28:36.800 2025

00:28:37.200 there are no official

00:28:38.540 there is no official

00:28:39.700 evidence or statement

00:28:40.820 from authorities

00:28:41.780 well

00:28:43.360 wait

00:28:44.200 okay

00:28:45.500 what could explain

00:28:47.760 that

00:28:48.320 and does that have

00:28:49.900 an impact at all

00:28:50.760 on you believing

00:28:52.000 this story

00:28:52.680 or not

00:28:53.520 what specific

00:28:55.380 details

00:28:56.180 are missing

00:28:57.240 about the

00:28:57.900 action

00:28:58.220 the accident

00:28:59.020 and why might

00:29:00.400 they not be

00:29:01.000 available

00:29:01.480 the exact date

00:29:02.940 the location

00:29:03.860 the official

00:29:04.680 police report

00:29:05.500 they're not there

00:29:06.340 they're not

00:29:07.020 it's not been

00:29:08.060 released

00:29:08.500 what

00:29:08.980 now

00:29:10.880 is this

00:29:12.600 due

00:29:13.180 to

00:29:13.940 a lack

00:29:15.300 of

00:29:15.780 paper

00:29:17.820 maybe

00:29:19.800 they're run

00:29:20.380 out of

00:29:20.800 ones and zeros

00:29:22.920 to write up

00:29:23.700 a report

00:29:24.280 in Perth

00:29:25.060 I don't know

00:29:25.600 what the situation

00:29:26.420 is in Perth

00:29:27.660 I mean it could

00:29:28.220 be bad

00:29:28.600 is there no

00:29:29.400 media access

00:29:30.380 and how is

00:29:31.660 how

00:29:32.040 the description

00:29:33.100 of the accident

00:29:34.200 how plausible

00:29:35.680 is it

00:29:36.220 they claim

00:29:38.320 that she was

00:29:38.900 hit by a

00:29:39.460 school bus

00:29:40.200 traveling at

00:29:41.000 110 kilometers

00:29:42.880 at 70 miles

00:29:43.880 an hour

00:29:44.240 okay

00:29:44.800 I could see

00:29:47.380 that happening

00:29:47.960 but I think

00:29:49.160 the big story

00:29:49.920 there would also

00:29:50.700 be in Perth

00:29:51.620 there was an

00:29:52.500 out of control

00:29:53.040 school bus

00:29:53.600 going 70 miles

00:29:54.740 an hour

00:29:55.080 were there kids

00:29:55.900 on board

00:29:56.420 what happened

00:29:57.140 there

00:29:57.540 you know

00:29:59.440 should do

00:30:00.080 some injuries

00:30:00.900 not just

00:30:01.420 with a person

00:30:01.980 they hit

00:30:02.640 but they say

00:30:04.140 that she had

00:30:05.080 severe injuries

00:30:06.020 like kidney

00:30:06.640 and renal

00:30:07.240 failure

00:30:07.720 okay

00:30:08.840 that seems

00:30:10.440 like it could

00:30:11.460 happen

00:30:11.760 at 70 miles

00:30:12.480 an hour

00:30:12.780 you're hit

00:30:13.460 by a bus

00:30:14.060 but is it

00:30:14.620 is 70 miles

00:30:16.280 an hour

00:30:16.580 realistic

00:30:17.080 for a school

00:30:17.640 bus

00:30:17.920 in a residential

00:30:18.700 area

00:30:19.300 and and

00:30:21.300 and really

00:30:22.140 I mean

00:30:22.700 okay

00:30:23.540 I guess

00:30:23.800 maybe four

00:30:24.460 days to live

00:30:25.240 they can't

00:30:25.680 keep you

00:30:26.180 you can't

00:30:26.740 keep your

00:30:27.000 kidneys going

00:30:27.580 for more

00:30:27.940 than four

00:30:28.360 days

00:30:28.620 I don't

00:30:28.960 know what

00:30:29.280 else is

00:30:29.660 wrong

00:30:30.000 she looks

00:30:30.560 bad

00:30:30.920 I've seen

00:30:31.340 the post

00:30:31.840 of her

00:30:32.100 she looks

00:30:32.580 bad

00:30:33.080 but

00:30:34.660 do we

00:30:37.180 believe

00:30:37.620 this

00:30:38.060 do we

00:30:38.860 just go

00:30:39.360 on

00:30:39.720 and start

00:30:40.580 making

00:30:41.160 accusations

00:30:41.980 one way

00:30:42.780 or another

00:30:43.140 see this

00:30:44.340 is why

00:30:44.880 when they

00:30:46.060 don't

00:30:46.520 release

00:30:47.000 the information

00:30:47.840 about

00:30:48.740 Jeffrey

00:30:50.900 Epstein

00:30:51.320 and they

00:30:52.440 say that

00:30:52.860 he hung

00:30:53.240 himself

00:30:53.620 with a

00:30:53.900 paper sheet

00:30:54.540 this is

00:30:55.200 what happens

00:30:55.780 this is

00:30:56.780 what happens

00:30:57.280 people

00:30:58.860 don't

00:30:59.380 believe

00:30:59.740 anybody

00:31:00.580 and so

00:31:01.260 then they

00:31:01.600 start

00:31:01.920 I mean

00:31:02.340 this is

00:31:02.660 the disturbing

00:31:03.220 part of this

00:31:03.800 story to me

00:31:04.360 is see

00:31:05.060 the FBI

00:31:05.500 is trying

00:31:05.820 to kill 1.00

00:31:06.140 her 1.00

00:31:06.520 or she

00:31:07.720 can testify

00:31:08.660 on anybody

00:31:09.480 else

00:31:09.880 they want 0.99

00:31:10.320 her dead 1.00

00:31:10.740 wait

00:31:11.700 wait

00:31:12.080 now we're

00:31:12.720 on to

00:31:13.000 Kash Patel

00:31:13.920 wants her 1.00

00:31:15.820 dead 1.00

00:31:16.140 now I

00:31:18.520 can't

00:31:19.000 explain

00:31:19.720 why

00:31:20.680 Kash Patel

00:31:21.600 and why

00:31:22.300 Pam Bondi

00:31:22.940 have not

00:31:23.680 released this

00:31:24.520 but I don't

00:31:25.600 think I'm

00:31:26.080 on the train

00:31:26.800 yet of

00:31:27.460 Kash Patel

00:31:28.460 is driving

00:31:28.980 a school

00:31:29.380 bus in

00:31:29.860 Perth

00:31:30.320 I don't

00:31:31.600 I don't

00:31:32.000 I don't

00:31:32.440 see that

00:31:33.320 as a

00:31:33.840 logical

00:31:34.260 place

00:31:34.940 seems

00:31:36.520 busy

00:31:36.980 too busy

00:31:37.920 to have

00:31:38.460 a second

00:31:38.900 job

00:31:39.340 for example

00:31:40.260 especially

00:31:40.580 that far

00:31:40.960 away

00:31:41.220 is there

00:31:42.900 is there

00:31:43.360 anybody

00:31:43.960 is there

00:31:44.840 anybody

00:31:45.260 with any

00:31:46.000 narrative

00:31:46.640 at all

00:31:47.240 any eyewitness

00:31:48.100 accounts

00:31:48.660 to any

00:31:49.660 of this

00:31:50.820 the police

00:31:51.200 did say

00:31:51.820 that there

00:31:52.180 was a minor

00:31:52.740 crash that 1.00

00:31:53.400 happened

00:31:53.780 that's not

00:31:54.240 a minor

00:31:54.520 crash

00:31:55.000 is it

00:31:56.740 I mean

00:31:57.360 you could

00:31:57.840 get banged 0.62

00:31:58.260 up by a

00:31:58.660 minor crash

00:31:59.300 it doesn't

00:31:59.540 mean you

00:31:59.700 have four

00:31:59.960 days

00:32:00.120 70 miles

00:32:00.880 or 70

00:32:01.680 kilometers

00:32:02.300 you know

00:32:03.500 that's not

00:32:05.220 a minor

00:32:05.480 crash

00:32:05.820 with a

00:32:06.100 school bus

00:32:06.720 no one

00:32:07.260 knows

00:32:07.560 what that

00:32:08.080 speed

00:32:08.480 that is

00:32:08.860 it could

00:32:09.300 be three

00:32:09.640 miles

00:32:10.460 an hour

00:32:10.820 you're right

00:32:11.800 that's the

00:32:12.200 problem

00:32:12.600 until we

00:32:13.360 find out

00:32:13.720 that should

00:32:14.060 be in the

00:32:14.360 story too

00:32:14.860 why are

00:32:15.340 they only

00:32:15.600 using

00:32:15.900 kilometers

00:32:16.400 bring in

00:32:16.760 some

00:32:16.920 scientists

00:32:17.300 see if

00:32:17.640 they can

00:32:17.860 convert it

00:32:18.380 or at

00:32:18.600 least get

00:32:18.840 close

00:32:19.320 no one

00:32:19.860 knows

00:32:20.100 nobody

00:32:20.360 knows

00:32:20.720 you're

00:32:20.980 right

00:32:21.200 I do

00:32:23.340 think

00:32:23.720 to the

00:32:24.320 four days

00:32:24.940 thing is a

00:32:25.380 weird one

00:32:25.840 did you hear

00:32:26.440 it anywhere

00:32:26.940 that she

00:32:28.240 has four

00:32:28.880 days to

00:32:29.320 live in

00:32:29.840 a quote

00:32:30.300 maybe I

00:32:31.340 missed it

00:32:31.820 but like

00:32:32.660 where I

00:32:33.280 saw it

00:32:33.740 was from

00:32:34.100 the dad

00:32:34.800 who said

00:32:35.360 she has

00:32:35.940 four days

00:32:36.840 well that

00:32:39.280 what

00:32:39.700 four days

00:32:40.200 until she

00:32:40.480 leaves the

00:32:40.780 hospital

00:32:41.260 four days

00:32:43.060 until what

00:32:43.780 four days

00:32:45.280 to live

00:32:45.760 really

00:32:46.160 I don't

00:32:46.720 know

00:32:46.940 it's a

00:32:47.380 very

00:32:47.580 I don't

00:32:48.080 know

00:32:48.300 this is

00:32:49.380 this is

00:32:49.860 the problem

00:32:50.140 with anything

00:32:50.560 Epstein

00:32:50.900 I think

00:32:51.860 yes

00:32:52.340 any

00:32:52.880 any little

00:32:53.560 shred

00:32:54.400 of something

00:32:55.520 and people

00:32:55.920 are so

00:32:56.340 desperate

00:32:56.760 looking for

00:32:57.380 any truth

00:32:58.020 here

00:32:58.320 that they

00:32:59.380 just jump

00:33:00.100 on anything

00:33:00.940 and it

00:33:01.360 blows up

00:33:01.780 now that

00:33:02.080 could be

00:33:02.380 exactly as

00:33:03.120 reported

00:33:03.660 although it's

00:33:04.280 reported

00:33:04.640 different ways

00:33:05.640 in several

00:33:06.160 different

00:33:06.520 publications

00:33:07.140 so it's

00:33:07.580 hard to

00:33:07.900 know

00:33:08.220 even what

00:33:08.960 you're

00:33:09.080 supposed to

00:33:09.500 here's

00:33:09.980 the thing

00:33:10.440 we can't

00:33:11.300 always

00:33:11.780 answer

00:33:12.300 all of

00:33:12.660 the

00:33:12.760 questions

00:33:13.080 we can't

00:33:13.620 tell you

00:33:13.940 what's

00:33:14.260 true

00:33:14.640 okay

00:33:15.560 on this

00:33:16.020 one

00:33:16.160 no

00:33:16.360 we can't

00:33:17.400 we don't

00:33:18.000 have

00:33:18.160 any of

00:33:19.380 the facts

00:33:19.700 on this

00:33:20.020 one

00:33:20.200 but we

00:33:20.920 can say

00:33:21.520 hang on

00:33:22.200 let's

00:33:23.180 ask some

00:33:23.600 critical

00:33:23.920 questions

00:33:24.460 and if

00:33:25.480 you're

00:33:25.600 not

00:33:25.840 using

00:33:26.180 critical

00:33:26.580 thinking

00:33:26.980 if

00:33:27.280 you're

00:33:27.420 not

00:33:27.660 asking

00:33:28.100 questions

00:33:28.880 like

00:33:29.560 why are

00:33:30.980 all these

00:33:31.320 things

00:33:31.600 left out

00:33:32.220 why is

00:33:33.120 this not

00:33:33.560 you can

00:33:34.180 jump to

00:33:34.540 a conspiracy

00:33:35.040 theory if

00:33:35.640 you want

00:33:35.980 but you

00:33:36.820 might also

00:33:37.320 want to

00:33:37.640 just go

00:33:38.020 until I

00:33:38.640 find these

00:33:39.240 things out

00:33:39.820 I'm not

00:33:40.840 going to

00:33:41.040 go online

00:33:41.640 and pass

00:33:42.180 this off

00:33:42.700 as see

00:33:43.020 I told

00:33:43.320 you space

00:33:43.760 aliens

00:33:44.140 were real

00:33:44.680 maybe space

00:33:47.200 aliens were

00:33:47.780 driving the

00:33:48.280 bus I

00:33:48.700 don't know

00:33:49.240 but because

00:33:50.560 I don't

00:33:51.020 know I

00:33:51.700 don't think

00:33:52.060 I'm going

00:33:52.320 to go on

00:33:52.860 and dogpile

00:33:54.000 on that

00:33:54.720 right now

00:33:55.520 this is

00:33:56.700 where

00:33:57.080 our

00:33:58.160 responsibility

00:33:59.080 as human

00:34:00.180 being

00:34:00.540 kicks in

00:34:01.220 we see

00:34:02.700 things that

00:34:03.300 we think

00:34:03.640 are outrageous

00:34:04.280 and because

00:34:04.800 they're

00:34:04.980 outrageous

00:34:05.440 and because

00:34:05.960 the algorithms

00:34:06.920 reward you

00:34:08.080 for being

00:34:08.540 outrageous

00:34:09.060 you just

00:34:10.160 post it

00:34:10.740 I mean I've

00:34:11.860 done this

00:34:12.200 myself

00:34:12.480 I'm not

00:34:12.800 lecturing

00:34:13.160 to you

00:34:13.600 I'm lecturing

00:34:14.040 to myself

00:34:14.520 as well

00:34:14.820 I've done

00:34:15.100 this myself

00:34:15.680 I've seen

00:34:16.700 things and

00:34:17.040 I'm like

00:34:17.280 that's

00:34:17.600 crazy

00:34:18.340 well Glenn

00:34:19.520 did you

00:34:19.960 stop and

00:34:20.360 think maybe

00:34:20.720 it's too

00:34:21.040 crazy

00:34:21.400 well no

00:34:23.580 I mean usually

00:34:25.040 things I think

00:34:25.680 are too

00:34:25.980 crazy actually

00:34:26.640 end up

00:34:26.980 happening

00:34:27.320 and that's

00:34:28.040 another

00:34:28.320 problem

00:34:28.880 and again

00:34:30.320 that's the

00:34:30.980 problem with

00:34:31.880 our media

00:34:32.760 and our

00:34:33.900 governments

00:34:34.460 and our

00:34:36.040 our banks

00:34:37.580 our corporations

00:34:39.020 our churches

00:34:40.580 in some cases

00:34:41.600 they're not

00:34:42.880 telling you the

00:34:43.520 truth

00:34:44.020 well that's

00:34:46.020 just a

00:34:46.320 conspiracy

00:34:46.880 what that you

00:34:47.920 didn't tell me

00:34:48.320 the truth

00:34:48.820 now or

00:34:49.840 when you

00:34:50.740 said

00:34:51.440 ESG

00:34:52.500 was a

00:34:52.920 conspiracy

00:34:53.680 when were

00:34:55.000 you telling

00:34:55.320 me

00:34:55.440 because I'm

00:34:55.820 confused

00:34:56.200 here

00:34:56.460 that's

00:34:56.980 the way

00:34:57.160 we like

00:34:57.540 it

00:34:57.860 only

00:35:00.680 critical

00:35:01.240 thinking

00:35:01.640 is going

00:35:02.260 to get

00:35:02.460 us out

00:35:02.820 of this

00:35:03.240 and we

00:35:03.660 have to

00:35:04.080 do

00:35:04.360 critical

00:35:05.360 thinking

00:35:05.780 on everything

00:35:06.640 that we

00:35:07.200 see

00:35:07.620 I mean

00:35:08.880 it's

00:35:09.140 I don't

00:35:12.120 I don't

00:35:12.780 know

00:35:13.000 have you

00:35:21.460 Elon Musk

00:35:22.320 and his

00:35:23.920 venture

00:35:24.280 capitalist

00:35:24.740 friend

00:35:25.160 found

00:35:25.540 he came

00:35:25.920 in

00:35:26.080 volunteered

00:35:26.580 for you

00:35:27.300 know

00:35:27.400 social

00:35:27.640 security

00:35:28.100 to try

00:35:28.800 to clean

00:35:29.140 it up

00:35:29.440 they don't

00:35:30.600 strike me

00:35:31.200 as deep

00:35:31.860 conservatives

00:35:32.580 and they're

00:35:33.880 on stage

00:35:34.620 and they're

00:35:35.160 explaining what

00:35:35.900 happened to

00:35:36.980 social security

00:35:37.880 and half

00:35:40.300 the country

00:35:40.880 is just

00:35:41.380 say they're 0.53

00:35:41.780 liars

00:35:43.940 liars

00:35:44.460 or even 0.99

00:35:46.460 better

00:35:46.800 so what

00:35:47.980 they gave

00:35:48.500 that

00:35:48.800 social

00:35:49.160 security

00:35:49.780 you know

00:35:51.400 numbers

00:35:52.060 and and

00:35:52.900 the benefits

00:35:53.520 to people

00:35:54.060 who just

00:35:54.520 came here

00:35:55.060 illegally

00:40:43.460 first round but you got

00:40:45.140 there on time intact

00:40:46.460 insurance your auto

00:40:47.720 service ace certain

00:40:48.960 conditions apply

00:40:49.740 yeah i got uh i got some

00:41:05.320 common sense for you uh right

00:41:06.980 here uh that we're going to

00:41:08.840 talk to you about uh tesla

00:41:10.300 also uh the third term did you

00:41:13.240 see what the new york times

00:41:14.360 said about donald trump in the

00:41:16.200 third term thing i actually

00:41:17.460 found this fascinating you

00:41:19.740 know he's been he's been

00:41:20.620 like you know i could go for

00:41:21.780 a third term i don't know

00:41:23.000 who knows maybe well the

00:41:25.340 constitution says no uh i

00:41:27.680 know steve bannon says you

00:41:29.180 know there's ways to do

00:41:30.100 things yeah there's lots of

00:41:31.080 ways to do things if you

00:41:32.100 don't care about the law uh

00:41:34.780 you know um but uh anyway

00:41:37.340 uh do you see what they

00:41:39.620 said new york times said

00:41:41.000 they thought it was a

00:41:43.320 possibility he was just

00:41:44.340 saying this so he doesn't 0.72

00:41:45.340 become a lame duck in the

00:41:47.480 last two years yeah that's a 0.95

00:41:50.260 that's really smart of them

00:41:51.540 that's very smart no you

00:41:53.480 don't think so i mean it's an

00:41:55.760 argument it's an argument

00:41:57.200 is it the argument i don't

00:41:58.820 know is it the true thing is

00:41:59.880 it the thing we should be

00:42:00.700 doing or is it a thing to

00:42:02.720 say that's what i feel like

00:42:04.360 we're always in this world

00:42:05.520 now where we found a thing to

00:42:07.160 say a thing look yes i guess

00:42:10.740 it would be at a political

00:42:12.080 advantage to him if people

00:42:13.340 thought he was running for

00:42:14.300 a third term and he

00:42:15.140 didn't actually mean it

00:42:16.180 and that you know because

00:42:17.700 you're right the the lame

00:42:19.140 dunk thing is a problem for

00:42:20.800 presidents a great way to

00:42:22.700 solve that uh uh you know i

00:42:24.880 guess could be this if you

00:42:26.120 then in addition to that on

00:42:29.200 the other side the other

00:42:30.160 track is that it's you're

00:42:31.440 right not not

00:42:32.460 constitutional well and a

00:42:34.220 problem i mean even the fake

00:42:35.780 stuff they're trying to do

00:42:36.600 with like oh well we're gonna

00:42:37.520 put him as secretary of

00:42:38.560 state and then we're gonna

00:42:39.340 change the law to change

00:42:40.860 the order of of of

00:42:42.780 succession and then we're

00:42:44.040 gonna have both the

00:42:44.680 president and the vice

00:42:45.480 president step down at the

00:42:46.560 same time it's like what are

00:42:47.900 we doing i would love the

00:42:49.800 president i would love the

00:42:51.540 president and john quincy

00:42:52.580 adams did this and john

00:42:54.280 quincy adams is the reason i

00:42:55.760 believe we got rid of

00:42:57.080 slavery it wasn't abraham

00:42:58.780 lincoln john quincy adams

00:43:00.260 because john adams was so

00:43:02.120 against uh slavery he taught

00:43:04.140 his sons to be against

00:43:05.260 slavery and john quincy adams

00:43:06.720 was the president couldn't

00:43:09.220 make the moves on slavery

00:43:10.580 knew it had to come from

00:43:11.920 the house of representatives

00:43:12.920 so he went and he served

00:43:15.440 not as the speaker of the

00:43:16.700 house just as a

00:43:17.820 representative the president

00:43:18.940 of the united states became

00:43:20.620 a congressman that was up

00:43:22.160 for re-election every two

00:43:23.340 years but he's the guy who

00:43:25.260 actually changed uh got

00:43:27.920 got abraham lincoln to be

00:43:30.040 who he was when he stood up

00:43:31.980 and was you know trying to

00:43:33.420 keep the country together it's

00:43:34.860 an amazing story um i would

00:43:37.100 love to see donald trump run

00:43:39.040 for congress and then be

00:43:40.840 elected speaker of the house

00:43:42.120 oh that would be fun that

00:43:44.020 would be oh that would be

00:43:45.300 fascinating it would be fun

00:43:46.760 again he doesn't even have

00:43:47.620 to run for congress to be

00:43:48.540 speaker of the house that's

00:43:50.700 right that's right it could

00:43:51.500 be anybody that's right um i

00:43:52.700 mean it's unlikely that that

00:43:53.800 happens but it could think

00:43:55.040 he's gonna lose and there's

00:43:56.840 no way i mean he'd pick a

00:43:58.180 district he would go into

00:43:59.040 win for sure yeah but still i

00:44:00.600 mean he wouldn't even need to

00:44:01.420 run um and i i think the

00:44:03.520 republican party would embrace

00:44:04.660 it honestly i just you know

00:44:06.580 again i we don't need to he's

00:44:09.100 doing let him do his job yeah i

00:44:10.720 feel like this is just a it is

00:44:12.100 a distraction it might be a

00:44:13.240 distraction on his part to the

00:44:15.120 media that's why still that's

00:44:16.860 why i have some critical

00:44:17.740 thinking coming your way on

00:44:19.140 this and also the tesla and the

00:44:21.780 social security scams that we

00:44:23.800 found out about yesterday coming

00:44:25.200 up this is glenn back you know

00:44:28.360 you never know what's gonna

00:44:29.640 happen the future is

00:44:31.060 completely open-ended every day

00:44:32.820 you have to climb out of bed

00:44:33.860 knowing that pretty much

00:44:35.220 anything could happen given

00:44:37.180 that why wouldn't you do

00:44:38.640 everything you can to make sure

00:44:40.000 you're at least prepared for the

00:44:41.180 things that you see as

00:44:42.240 possible you know there's things

00:44:44.100 that are just you know highly

00:44:45.900 highly unlikely um but so such a

00:44:50.540 bad impact like you know fire

00:44:52.720 insurance you've got to have

00:44:53.880 fire insurance right because it's

00:44:56.480 catastrophic if it happens but

00:44:58.300 it's unlikely to happen well one

00:44:59.900 thing that's not unlikely to

00:45:01.140 happen is somebody in the family

00:45:02.320 gets sick while you're on

00:45:03.320 vacation now let's let's

00:45:05.980 increase the odds of not

00:45:07.120 happening let's say you it

00:45:09.380 night and you're in some place

00:46:46.540 Hello, America.

00:46:47.500 A lot to get to.

00:46:48.220 We're going to get right to it in 60 seconds.

00:46:49.900 First, one of the most valuable assets you'll ever have, maybe the most valuable, is your

00:46:54.380 identity.

00:46:55.180 Not just because it's what ties you to all your money, either.

00:46:57.960 It's what ties you to your good name, your credibility in the world.

00:47:01.280 And you need to understand that there are people absolutely positively, people out there

00:47:05.060 right now who can't just wait to steal all of that from you.

00:47:08.400 So cybercrime is not getting less common.

00:47:12.120 It's getting more common.

00:47:13.720 We live in a technological age.

00:47:15.660 And every day, every day, the tools for finding and stealing your identity get a little more

00:47:21.560 sophisticated, a little bit easier to use.

00:47:24.120 The only thing standing in that gap is the security you and I use and what I recommend,

00:47:59.500 So I couldn't sleep last night.

00:48:01.520 I was, my head was just spinning all night just thinking about stuff.

00:48:05.200 And I couldn't get, I couldn't get a couple of stories out of my mind.

00:48:08.260 First, the social security thing we're going to talk about.

00:48:10.440 That Elon Musk was in Wisconsin along with a buddy of his, a guy who volunteered as a big CEO of a venture capitalist thing.

00:48:18.760 And volunteered because he wants to clean up the government and all of the waste and the graft and everything else.

00:48:24.020 And they made an announcement, we'll play for you, about social security.

00:48:27.680 The other thing, Wisconsin has a big vote today.

00:48:32.220 And this could mean the balance of the House, Republican, Democrat.

00:48:39.400 And we'll see.

00:48:41.240 And we'll see what happens today.

00:48:42.560 How many people are going to be out voting?

00:48:45.020 We're going to talk to Ron Johnson about it here in just a second.

00:48:48.920 And the importance of it.

00:48:50.260 If you happen to be in Wisconsin, probably a day to go out and vote.

00:48:54.340 Not probably, definitely a day to go out and vote.

00:48:57.680 Then I was also thinking about the protests again on Elon Musk.

00:49:02.440 I just can't get past these things.

00:49:04.360 Because these are global protests.

00:49:06.340 And this is what kept me up.

00:49:08.060 These are global protests.

00:49:11.080 These are demonstrators outside of Tesla showrooms.

00:49:16.400 We've seen fires.

00:49:17.880 We've seen people burning the cars and the lithium batteries.

00:49:22.840 But we're seeing them all over the world.

00:49:28.640 So, can we just stop?

00:49:30.840 Today's theme of the show is just, can we think?

00:49:33.460 Ask some critically thinking questions.

00:49:35.840 Can we do that?

00:49:37.460 Before we accept this story, let's ask some things.

00:49:40.200 This is what really kept me up last night.

00:49:42.140 Can anybody tell me what these protesters are responding to?

00:49:48.460 And I'm not talking here in America.

00:49:49.760 I'm talking about in England, in Germany, wherever a Tesla showroom is, people are protesting.

00:49:57.180 I would just like to know, what are the people in England protesting?

00:50:01.840 What policy?

00:50:03.720 What decision?

00:50:04.560 Because Musk isn't pushing a global war.

00:50:09.720 He's not erecting the tariffs.

00:50:11.740 I mean, I would understand it if people in Europe were protesting on the tariffs.

00:50:15.320 Because that would actually affect the average person.

00:50:19.740 Okay?

00:50:21.540 Here's what he's doing.

00:50:24.180 He's helping lead a department focused on the United States federal budgeting and efficiency.

00:50:30.880 Why would anyone in Germany or Sweden or Ireland care?

00:50:40.860 Why?

00:50:42.240 I mean, I looked last night.

00:50:44.300 I tried to find, has there been anything like this in history?

00:50:48.020 No, you can go to, you know, people protesting the nukes and war and everything.

00:50:53.100 But not this.

00:50:53.940 There's nothing where a domestic policy dispute has all of a sudden swept the globe.

00:51:02.020 So why would they care about this so deeply?

00:51:06.100 Hmm.

00:51:07.220 Getting out of NATO?

00:51:08.580 Okay.

00:51:10.760 Even if they were saying, you know, Greenland, America just wants to buy Greenland.

00:51:16.940 And they're out, you know, protesting.

00:51:18.480 Okay, I can see that for some degree.

00:51:20.020 But I can't see people in, I don't know, whatever city Greenland has, or the people in Denmark, you know, rising up and saying,

00:51:31.740 this policy that Elon Musk is doing in the United States, trying to make the government more efficient, that's just outrageous.

00:51:39.400 Come on, Sven.

00:51:40.400 Let's go out and burn a Tesla.

00:51:42.300 Makes no sense.

00:51:43.320 Have you ever seen a protest in foreign countries over a U.S. cabinet appointment?

00:51:50.460 Ever.

00:51:51.120 In your life.

00:51:53.120 Not over war.

00:51:54.320 Not over climate treaties.

00:51:56.100 Not over global trade.

00:51:58.380 But over something that deals with cutting our budget that will not affect really anybody overseas.

00:52:07.360 Yeah, it's unprecedented.

00:52:09.440 It does.

00:52:10.020 It's never happened.

00:52:11.640 One, so who benefits?

00:52:15.020 That's the first.

00:52:16.520 The first question is, have you ever seen this before?

00:52:20.280 Second, why would anybody in Europe care about this?

00:52:24.520 Three, who benefits?

00:52:28.260 Well, let's look at Tesla.

00:52:29.840 This is the company that made electric cars mainstream.

00:52:34.460 It jump-started the global EV race.

00:52:37.800 When everybody was saying, we've got to have electric cars, we're like, no, hydrogen would be even better.

00:52:41.640 Got to have electric cars.

00:52:43.180 Well, they don't work.

00:52:44.280 Here comes Elon Musk and he starts Tesla.

00:52:47.700 He not only develops solar panels, battery storage, charging infrastructure, things environmentalists have been begging the world to adopt for decades.

00:52:58.420 Okay, and then, wait, all of a sudden, the very people who claim climate change is the greatest, I'm quoting them, the greatest threat to humanity are now trying to cripple or even burn down the company doing the most to solve it.

00:53:13.640 That doesn't make sense.

00:53:14.500 Does that make sense to you?

00:53:17.540 That's not activism.

00:53:20.180 That's contradiction. 0.99

00:53:21.700 It's a mental illness, really. 0.87

00:53:23.580 That's what it is. 0.98

00:53:24.320 It's a mental illness.

00:53:25.360 If that makes sense to you, then you should see a doctor.

00:53:28.620 If you believe in saving the planet, how does driving the number one force for clean energy or torching lithium batteries help you at all?

00:53:38.460 How does boycotting EVs help you?

00:53:41.660 Terrorizing people that bought Tesla EVs.

00:53:45.240 How does that help you?

00:53:46.500 How does trying to destroy the most innovative clean energy company in the world move us toward your goal?

00:53:54.200 Answer, it doesn't.

00:53:55.900 It doesn't.

00:53:56.440 So, let's ask a deeper question.

00:54:00.100 Are all of the claims you've made since the 1980s, 90s, how we're all five years away from something worse than World War II?

00:54:09.600 You know, we're all going to die in a fiery flood.

00:54:12.680 Is that true?

00:54:13.860 Any of that?

00:54:14.620 Or is this about control?

00:54:15.760 Because if we only have five years to do something, why are you stopping Tesla?

00:54:20.080 Why would you do that?

00:54:21.080 We only have five years.

00:54:22.580 These guys are helping us.

00:54:24.340 It doesn't make sense.

00:54:26.440 Elon Musk did not become controversial when he built Tesla or when he launched rockets or when he championed electric energy.

00:54:36.520 When did he suddenly become controversial?

00:54:39.720 And it's not Donald Trump.

00:54:41.260 It's when he stood up and defended free speech.

00:54:48.700 That's when they turned on him.

00:54:50.980 When he bought Twitter and exposed the censorship that we now can prove happened.

00:54:57.660 When he said he wouldn't be a pawn for either side.

00:55:01.620 That's when it happened.

00:55:03.460 That's when the outrage machine flipped on. 0.99

00:55:05.440 They had to put him out of business.

00:55:06.840 Have to put him out of business.

00:55:09.340 And when people try to justify it, they usually pivot to one word. 0.98

00:55:14.060 Well, he's a fascist. 0.57

00:55:16.240 So, let's ask some questions on that one. 0.91

00:55:18.520 Well, this isn't about Tesla.

00:55:20.020 It's about stopping Musk. 0.99

00:55:21.180 He's a billionaire fascist. 0.98

00:55:23.000 Okay. 0.99

00:55:23.580 All right.

00:55:25.620 Let's think about that for a second.

00:55:28.680 What do you think?

00:55:29.880 I feel like, you know, I feel like Montoya and the six-fingered man.

00:55:34.960 You keep using that word.

00:55:36.560 I do not think it means what you think it means.

00:55:38.460 What does fascism mean?

00:55:40.320 What is a fascist?

00:55:42.480 Is it simply somebody with a lot of money and a large platform?

00:55:46.360 Is that what it is?

00:55:47.240 Is it somebody who questions centralized authority?

00:55:52.560 Is it someone who wants less government interference, not more?

00:55:56.700 Because none of those things are the definition of fascist.

00:56:01.440 Traditional fascism is defined by state control, forced conformity, censorship, and the silencing of dissent.

00:56:09.640 That's what a fascist does.

00:56:11.460 So, will you recognize you don't understand the word fascist or fascism? 0.62

00:56:17.900 And maybe you can pick another word, but that one, you know, I could call my car a horse or a goat all day long.

00:56:26.100 It's not going to make it a horse or a goat.

00:56:28.160 It's still a car.

00:56:29.400 So, you can call him a fascist all you want, but it doesn't make him a fascist.

00:56:33.760 Let's find another word that might work for you.

00:56:37.160 Maybe political opponent is better.

00:56:43.640 By the way, Musk, that fascist, is the one being protested, censored, and attacked for trying to create platforms where dissent is allowed.

00:56:54.200 How? 0.93

00:56:55.480 Don't you have a headache?

00:56:56.540 If you're on that side, don't you have a headache?

00:56:58.540 We should bring our friends aspirin.

00:57:00.500 You've got to have a headache.

00:57:01.800 This is heavy lifting you're doing.

00:57:03.840 So, here's the question.

00:57:04.660 Is he really a fascist, or is he a powerful figure who doesn't obey the approved narrative?

00:57:12.360 Because that's what it is.

00:57:13.560 That's the same thing with Trump.

00:57:14.700 He doesn't care what the approved narrative is.

00:57:17.500 He's just going to do it, whether you like it or not.

00:57:20.640 That doesn't make you a fascist.

00:57:22.800 It makes you a fascist if you're telling everyone they must conform.

00:57:26.580 If somebody is a fascist for promoting open dialogue, transparency, and government accountability, what do you call the people who are trying to shut him down by any means necessary, including violence?

00:57:41.040 See that?

00:57:42.480 Because if you take the word fascist away and you apply it to him, there's no word for the people who are actually trying to silence people through violence or terroristic activities.

00:57:51.900 There's no word.

00:57:53.040 You've taken the word.

00:57:53.820 And, you know, the worst thing is, and I said this about racism, how many years ago?

00:57:59.420 30 years ago?

00:58:00.680 Can we stop calling everybody a racist?

00:58:02.340 Stop calling everybody a racist.

00:58:03.900 Just like in the 90s.

00:58:05.040 You're overusing that word.

00:58:07.260 It's going to let real racists go by the wayside because it will have no meaning anymore.

00:58:13.960 The same thing with fascists.

00:58:15.400 What do you do when actual fascists arrive?

00:58:19.660 So let's get back to the root.

00:58:22.000 These protests, they don't make any sense.

00:58:25.000 Let's ask some more questions.

00:58:26.680 Who's organizing these protests?

00:58:28.640 Who's funding these protests?

00:58:31.260 Who gains power or influence if Tesla's brand is damaged?

00:58:35.820 If Musk is silenced?

00:58:37.760 Or if the public believes the world is against him?

00:58:41.240 Because regular people do not throw together rallies on a Saturday across the border, across the ocean to protest over American federal staffing decisions.

00:58:55.380 It doesn't happen.

00:58:57.500 You know what I'm really upset about?

00:58:59.380 Have you seen what they've done?

00:59:01.100 They're cutting some teacher salary over in Ireland.

00:59:04.860 Oh, okay.

00:59:06.660 I don't care.

00:59:08.220 I don't live in Ireland.

00:59:09.460 I don't care.

00:59:10.060 It doesn't affect my life.

00:59:11.240 At all.

00:59:12.780 So how is this affecting their life?

00:59:15.480 It takes planning.

00:59:16.980 It takes money.

00:59:17.800 It takes messaging.

00:59:19.180 It takes media amplification.

00:59:21.520 It takes global coordination.

00:59:24.440 Gee, that doesn't sound like a grassroots operation at all, does it?

00:59:30.700 And if the protests are being driven by a narrative and not facts, then isn't it fair to ask this question?

00:59:36.820 What narrative are we being sold?

00:59:38.640 And who's paying for all that advertisement?

00:59:42.580 See, we're living in an age now where perception is power.

00:59:47.720 That's it.

00:59:48.220 One viral video can topple a reputation.

00:59:51.400 One headline can shape an election.

00:59:53.740 And if you can convince the public that even climate heroes are suddenly now villains just because they challenge a certain system, not even the one you say is the most important of all time.

01:00:07.160 Then you can control almost any story.

01:00:09.900 And they know that.

01:00:10.940 So here's the challenge for you today.

01:00:14.600 I think you're going to love it.

01:00:18.060 This is for you and the people you love.

01:00:21.220 Think.

01:00:23.820 Think.

01:00:25.060 Ask.

01:00:26.180 Question with boldness.

01:00:28.040 Is this protest helping the environment or hurting it?

01:00:32.000 Is this outrage spontaneous or coordinated?

01:00:35.260 Is the word fascism being used to reveal the truth or to shut down a conversation?

01:00:41.660 And most importantly, are we now burning down the lifeboats just because we don't like the captain of the ship?

01:00:48.900 Because if we are, we might win the argument today.

01:00:53.860 But did you see the end of Titanic?

01:00:56.280 Maybe we should maybe we should watch that.

01:01:02.300 I'm the king of the world.

01:01:03.940 Was that Elon Musk?

01:01:05.500 Did he actually sink that ship?

01:01:07.780 Might be. 0.98

01:01:08.500 He's a fascist, you know. 0.97

01:01:09.680 And the number one thing that fascists do sink big ships. 1.00

01:01:15.180 OK, they never done that.

01:01:16.280 But since we're redefining the word fascist, they sink big ships back in a minute.

01:01:22.100 If you're living day in and day out with aches and pains, you're probably, you know, you know, you know what it's like.

01:01:27.220 You know what it's like pulling a plug on you.

01:01:29.720 Your energy is slowly just draining out of you.

01:01:33.320 Doesn't do a lot for your your mood either or your outlook on life at all.

01:01:38.380 I know exactly what it's like to feel.

01:01:40.580 And you've tried everything.

01:01:41.980 Nothing is working.

01:01:42.820 That's why I'm telling you relief factor is different.

01:01:45.040 Please try it yourself.

01:01:46.060 It doesn't work for everybody.

01:01:47.060 I'm straight up with you on that.

01:01:48.720 It works for about 70 percent of the people who try it.

01:01:51.080 That may not be you.

01:01:52.100 But it might be.

01:01:53.160 And if you're like me and it works, you can get out of pain.

01:01:57.560 The best thing is it's not a quick fix.

01:01:59.640 It's a long term solution to help you get out of pain and stay out of pain.

01:02:02.980 And it's helped a ton of people.

01:02:04.460 And you might be the next one.

01:02:06.340 Try it.

01:02:06.880 1995.

01:02:07.760 Try the Relief Factor three week quick start.

01:02:10.140 Less than a dollar a day.

01:02:11.320 1-800-4-RELIEF.

01:02:12.560 That's 1-800-4-RELIEF.

01:02:14.520 Or go to relieffactor.com.

01:02:17.700 10 seconds station ID.

01:02:19.000 Let me get into the SSI thing here.

01:02:34.380 The Social Security insurance.

01:02:35.820 So Elon Musk and a friend of his, they were out in Wisconsin doing a rally or a town hall, and they were talking about how what they found in Social Security is just horrible.

01:02:51.220 The government was giving away Social Security numbers, and it wasn't haphazard.

01:02:56.760 It was planned.

01:02:58.220 People were coming across the border, and they were handing them a Social Security number.

01:03:01.660 And it was clear that, I don't remember the numbers, but it's a very high number.

01:03:05.280 We are paying people who came here illegally. 1.00

01:03:07.660 We're giving them Social Security.

01:03:09.420 When our old people can't afford to eat, we're just giving this away to people who are here illegally. 1.00

01:03:17.740 That's crazy.

01:03:19.280 Crazy.

01:03:20.640 So, you know, we don't survive as a nation without some accountability and without some common ground.

01:03:29.520 And I don't know, again, when did it become okay to cheer or jeer for somebody who's stopping corruption in our government?

01:03:45.840 When did it be okay?

01:03:47.500 I mean, how did we get here?

01:03:48.440 How did we get to the point to where people actually cheer the idea of our government secretly and denying it, if you ask them, giving taxpayer-funded benefits like Social Security to millions of people who are here illegally? 0.98

01:04:03.780 And most people don't even blink now.

01:04:06.220 How did we get—forget politics.

01:04:08.540 Forget red team, blue team.

01:04:10.840 Just let me say this.

01:04:12.700 Just ask your friend, ask yourself this question.

01:04:14.940 If the people you trusted the least were doing this, would you be okay with it?

01:04:21.600 That's to my side.

01:04:23.240 Would you be okay with it?

01:04:24.900 I would be fine if you had an Elon Musk in there doing this. 0.81

01:04:28.780 Be totally fine.

01:04:30.000 And exposing all of this?

01:04:31.140 Yep.

01:04:32.420 It's not a gotcha.

01:04:33.420 It's a principle.

01:04:34.620 It's critical thinking.

01:04:35.580 Would you be okay?

01:04:38.260 You know, critical thinking really needs to make a comeback.

01:04:40.720 Because when we stop thinking critically, we start defending nonsense because our side is doing it.

01:04:47.720 And we lose something bigger than an argument.

01:04:50.240 We lose trust.

01:04:50.980 We lose connection.

01:04:52.160 We lose the ability to have any kind of honest conversations with the people that we love.

01:04:57.140 So how do you talk to your friends and your family who just don't seem to see what we see?

01:05:01.600 Well, it doesn't start with confrontation.

01:05:05.780 It starts with curiosity.

01:05:08.220 Which brings us to questions you can ask.

01:05:12.180 You ask them, can we just look at this as if we didn't know who was in office?

01:05:17.380 Because then we can find our principles.

01:05:19.320 Would you still feel like this was okay?

01:05:22.280 What's the limiting principle here?

01:05:26.420 If this is allowed for the government to deny that they're doing this, but give all of this money, all of these benefits to people who are here illegally while denying they're doing it, and it's not within the bounds of the law.

01:05:39.660 If we can just do this now, is there any limiting principle?

01:05:43.240 What can't we do?

01:05:45.420 What happens to a country when the law no longer means what it says?

01:05:50.140 Don't accuse.

01:05:50.920 We just need to start inviting people to answer these questions.

01:05:54.340 Show respect for their mind. 0.93

01:05:56.080 Because deep down, most people do not want to be hypocrites. 0.95

01:05:58.980 They don't. 0.92

01:05:59.580 And that's the conflict that they're having in their head right now.

01:06:03.660 They want to be consistent.

01:06:05.520 They want to be fair.

01:06:07.560 But sometimes they just need a little help connecting the dots.

01:06:10.220 So what they'll say is, well, Trump did.

01:06:12.480 You just stop them right there.

01:06:13.960 It's not about Trump.

01:06:15.280 It's about policy and principles right now.

01:06:17.600 Can we judge this on its own merit?

01:06:20.020 But the dishonest ones will end the conversation there.

01:06:24.720 And they'll want to just go back into the outrage machine. 0.71

01:06:28.540 But you stay in reality.

01:06:29.980 Because we can't see our neighbors as enemies just because they see the world differently.

01:06:35.080 But the first step to helping each other is ask honest questions.

01:06:39.540 Have the courage to listen to their answer.

01:06:42.820 Not be thinking, oh, good, they said that so I can say.

01:06:45.240 Just listen.

01:06:45.820 Even when it makes you really uncomfortable.

01:06:48.480 Because we have to find our way back to truth.

01:06:51.460 We have to find our way back to the actual law.

01:06:54.240 We have to find our way back to logic.

01:06:56.500 Because it's not political.

01:06:59.820 It's just about right and wrong.

01:07:02.160 And if we can't do this, then the fight isn't about left versus right anymore.

01:07:07.160 It honestly isn't even about good and evil.

01:07:09.660 It's about sane versus the insane.

01:07:18.120 This is Glenn Beck.

01:07:21.000 Senator Ron Johnson is with us next.

01:07:22.960 NMLS 182334.

01:07:24.480 NMLS consumeraccess.org.

01:07:26.100 APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

01:07:29.900 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

01:07:33.580 Boy, it's not fun to think about.

01:07:34.720 But the truth of the matter is a lot of people are just going to look at you as a meal ticket, you know.

01:07:39.480 The bank, credit card companies, they don't really care.

01:07:43.300 As long as they're getting their money, I mean, they do care.

01:07:46.580 I mean, they care if you're struggling, you know, make everything work at the end of every month.

01:07:51.340 No, wait.

01:07:52.020 No, they don't.

01:07:52.980 They don't.

01:07:53.560 They're never with you on those nights when you just can't sleep.

01:07:56.580 They're not like, you know, I'm your bank and let's work this out.

01:07:59.320 They're not.

01:08:00.620 It's kind of the way it goes in the world of finances today.

01:08:03.160 But American Financing doesn't feel that way.

01:08:05.840 That's why their mortgage consultants are salary-based and not commission-based.

01:08:10.880 That way, they can get around to the most important thing, which is helping you get debt-free.

01:08:16.660 They can help you build a stable financial house.

01:08:20.820 By the way, they've been doing this for a long time.

01:08:23.280 Since 1999, they've seen a lot of competitors in the field come and go.

01:08:26.820 They've learned the secret of success early on.

01:08:29.040 And that's put you, the customer, first every time.

01:08:31.800 Call American Financing, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

01:08:37.520 It's AmericanFinancing.net.

01:08:39.560 Big election in Wisconsin today.

01:08:41.520 We'll talk to Senator Ron Johnson about it next.

01:08:43.800 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:09:05.700 Thank you so much for listening today.

01:09:07.400 We've got a great show for you.

01:09:08.840 Not today, of course, but maybe sometime later this week.

01:09:11.340 We have Senator Ron Johnson on with us.

01:09:14.680 He's going to be joining us in just a few minutes.

01:09:16.920 He is obviously a Republican from Wisconsin, the big vote.

01:09:21.780 And what the Supreme Court would mean for the rest of the country, a liberal Wisconsin Supreme Court.

01:09:27.840 What would it mean for the rest of the country?

01:09:29.620 Donald Trump is very, very clear on all of this.

01:09:33.400 There's a very important election for a state Supreme Court on April 1st.

01:09:36.840 That's today.

01:09:38.640 Brad Schimmel is running against radical left liberal Susan Crawford, who has repeatedly given child molesters, rapists, women beaters, and domestic abusers light sentences.

01:09:49.100 She is the handpicked voice of the leftists who are out to destroy your state and our country.

01:09:54.520 And if she wins, the movement will restore our nation.

01:09:57.540 It will bypass Wisconsin.

01:09:59.620 All voters who believe in common sense should get out to vote early for Brad Schimmel.

01:10:03.960 By turning out to vote, you'll be helping to uphold the rule of law, protect our incredible police, secure our beloved constitution, safeguard our inalienable rights, and preserve liberty and justice for all.

01:10:13.740 So, so important, please, Wisconsin, get out and vote today for Brad Schimmel.

01:10:21.060 That's from the president.

01:10:22.860 Okay.

01:10:23.580 Did you see that Elon Musk was out doing this as well?

01:10:26.840 I mean, he's passionate about it as well.

01:10:30.140 Yeah.

01:10:30.800 Really passionate about it.

01:10:32.060 Really fired up.

01:10:32.880 And they've spent a lot of money.

01:10:34.280 They're really focused on it.

01:10:35.420 It's an important election.

01:10:36.760 Senator Ron Johnson is with us now to tell us why this is so important in Wisconsin.

01:10:41.100 What does it mean to the rest of us?

01:10:43.300 Senator?

01:10:43.740 How are you?

01:10:44.180 Well, if Susan Crawford wins, we'll retain the radical left majority on the court that was established in 2023 when George Soros and crew came in and pretty well bought that Supreme Court race, spending tens of millions of dollars. 1.00

01:11:00.700 They, over the last two years, they've redistricted our state assembly and state senate.

01:11:06.220 So our majorities in those chambers have shrunken.

01:11:09.120 And if they retain that radical left majority on the court, they will redistrict Derek Van Orden and Brian Stiles' congressional seats, really put those things in jeopardy.

01:11:21.000 If they put those in jeopardy with such a slim majority with such a slim majority, we could lose the majority in the second half of Trump's term.

01:11:28.460 And I just think I would then be sitting for a third impeachment trial for Donald Trump.

01:11:34.700 And he'll basically have two years where he can be effective, and then the second two years is just going to be a you-know-what ride for the president.

01:11:42.740 So this is crucial.

01:11:43.760 So in addition to that, they'll overturn voter ID law.

01:11:48.040 They'll probably overturn any election integrity measure because Democrats want to cheat in elections. 1.00

01:11:53.020 And we just may take Wisconsin off the map in terms of battleground state for the 10 electoral votes for a Republican president.

01:11:59.440 I mean, that's how serious this is, not to mention the fact they overturned Act 10, Act 10, which is Governor Walker's signature achievement,

01:12:06.320 saved Wisconsinites hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars in tax payments, that type of thing.

01:12:12.560 So it's just a crucial election.

01:12:14.720 And the good news, Glenn, is that this shouldn't be that hard.

01:12:18.460 If you were one of the 1.7 million Wisconsinites that voted for President Trump, 1.7, he's a record vote-gater in Wisconsin.

01:12:27.020 Our last Supreme Court judge in 2023 got 800,000 votes.

01:12:32.040 That's a 900,000 vote difference.

01:12:33.900 So if you want to see President Trump effective and you voted for him, get out and vote.

01:12:39.240 I mean, we should be logging 1.5, 1.6 million votes.

01:12:44.740 So if you voted for him, use your text change, use your email change, talk to everybody you know that also voted for Donald Trump and get out and vote now.

01:12:54.740 We have to win this election.

01:12:55.960 I don't think I've ever heard, Stu, have you ever heard a state Supreme Court election be this, trumpeted like this, is so important to the nation.

01:13:07.160 And that's why it's the most expensive ever, right?

01:13:09.520 More money being spent on this because so many people are focused on it.

01:13:12.760 I think maybe that's because George Soros is on one side and Elon Musk is on the other side.

01:13:17.480 Okay, okay, yeah, that's fair.

01:13:19.060 They don't exactly have to pinch pennies.

01:13:21.980 You know what I mean?

01:13:23.740 Guys, this started with Eric Holder, who started taking over all these district attorneys.

01:13:30.860 And, you know, George Soros funding these district attorneys that wouldn't prosecute crime.

01:13:35.640 I mean, this is, the left is very smart.

01:13:37.800 They're relentless.

01:13:38.400 So through stealth, they've taken over school boards.

01:13:41.800 Again, they've gotten their radical left ideology infiltrated into every institution of this country, particularly our legal system.

01:13:47.980 These radical left judges, I mean, those are the ones that are issuing nationwide injunctions against the actions that a duly elected president was elected to enact, right?

01:13:59.380 I mean, they're frustrating those attempts.

01:14:01.260 Same thing's happening in the Wisconsin court.

01:14:02.800 So they're the ones that, again, turned the 2023 Wisconsin Supreme Court race into the most expensive race in history, over $50 million.

01:14:11.940 They're going to double that now.

01:14:13.380 So all Elon Musk is doing is trying to level the playing field.

01:14:17.020 He's doing it brilliantly, by the way.

01:14:18.780 I mean, it's brilliant what he's doing.

01:14:21.360 I just hope and pray that he's successful.

01:14:23.760 What is he doing?

01:14:25.380 Explain what you mean by that.

01:14:26.580 So he offered to pay people to sign a petition against activist judges.

01:14:33.760 People who signed up for that petition were then eligible for a drawing to win a million dollars.

01:14:38.540 I was at his town hall event where he gave up $2 million checks.

01:14:42.800 And, of course, our attorney general challenged that.

01:14:45.860 But even the radical left Supreme Court turned back that challenge.

01:14:50.100 So Elon Musk, the publicity he's getting for the million-dollar checks dwarfs the cost of the million-dollar checks.

01:14:58.260 I mean, he's getting millions of dollars of publicity.

01:15:00.840 And so hopefully enough Trump voters are paying attention and will get off the couch, get out and vote, and secure this Supreme Court seat.

01:15:11.960 How are the numbers on early voting?

01:15:13.540 Well, not good, quite honestly.

01:15:17.140 I mean, Elon said at the event on Sunday night that the 85-cent betting chance that Brad Schumel is going to lose.

01:15:24.400 That's why this is a real rallying crime.

01:15:26.000 Holy cow. 0.89

01:15:26.300 There's no reason we shouldn't win this thing just running away if those 1.7 million Trump voters are serious about letting Trump be Trump and honoring his promises.

01:15:36.620 It is amazing to me what the left is doing through the court system.

01:15:45.540 And, I mean, you know, we've seen George Soros coming for a long time.

01:15:48.980 And now he's just – it's almost like he – it's almost like nobody pays even attention to him.

01:15:53.780 What he has done to our country, how he has destroyed our states and many of our cities.

01:15:59.440 I mean, look at what happened in New York.

01:16:01.400 Look at what happened in Los Angeles.

01:16:03.220 Look at what happened in Minneapolis.

01:16:05.360 Look at what happens wherever his fingers are, the destruction that comes with it.

01:16:11.840 And nobody says anything about George Soros.

01:16:14.680 And yet Elon Musk is this boogeyman.

01:16:20.240 That's because the corporate legacy media, there are a bunch of leftists themselves.

01:16:24.020 But it's also because as conservatives, we really don't want to have to deal with government.

01:16:29.420 We just want government off our bat.

01:16:31.100 For liberals, getting into government, getting control of our lives, that's their lifelong ambition.

01:16:35.800 So it's not a level playing field.

01:16:37.520 It's not a fair fight.

01:16:39.260 And so what happens – we saw this under Reagan.

01:16:41.520 You know, we elect Ronald Reagan.

01:16:43.300 He drops tax rates down to 28%.

01:16:45.100 We kind of, you know, clap our hands together and say, okay, we solved this problem.

01:16:50.520 They're defeated.

01:16:51.360 No, the left is relentless.

01:16:52.700 And, again, they do it through stealth.

01:16:54.840 So they infiltrate every institution.

01:16:58.240 And we just – we don't even see it coming.

01:17:00.740 We didn't see the Supreme Court race in 2023 coming.

01:17:03.440 We haven't seen in even conservative school districts the radical leftists take over school boards and city councils and county boards.

01:17:11.460 So, again, government is everything to leftists, to conservatives.

01:17:16.480 We just want it off our bat.

01:17:17.640 So we don't – we just don't pay the attention to it as the left does.

01:17:21.960 And that's what's happening in Wisconsin right now.

01:17:23.420 The 1.7 million voters for Trump, they just aren't – they haven't paid enough attention to it right now.

01:17:29.340 But now is the time to wake up, pay attention to it, and secure this Supreme Court seat.

01:17:34.120 Yeah, I think this is your last chance to wake up in Wisconsin.

01:17:37.400 I mean, you know, it's over today.

01:17:39.280 So get out and vote.

01:17:41.220 Senator, thank you.

01:17:42.220 Thank you for everything you've done in the Senate and protecting our nation and your state.

01:17:47.240 We appreciate it.

01:17:48.040 God bless you.

01:17:48.840 Thanks for having me on.

01:17:49.720 You bet.

01:17:50.300 Ron Johnson, the senator from Wisconsin.

01:17:54.500 Boy, I tell you, that is – it's amazing how this just never, ever ends.

01:18:02.580 It just doesn't ever end.

01:18:05.060 And I think that's the problem with most people.

01:18:06.900 It's like, you know what I did?

01:18:08.460 I fought really hard.

01:18:09.520 I've lost friends.

01:18:10.760 I've lost – but, you know, can I just have my life back?

01:18:13.480 I'm sorry.

01:18:14.080 The answer is no, not really.

01:18:16.460 This is your life.

01:18:17.440 I mean, this is your life.

01:18:18.380 This is your responsibility.

01:18:20.160 If you lose your country, you lose your ability to worship God.

01:18:24.080 You lose your family.

01:18:26.080 Because if you lose your right to worship God, what happens to your family?

01:18:28.980 We've seen what the godlessness of this society so far has done to our children.

01:18:36.160 So, I mean, I've always said God, family, country.

01:18:40.680 It's actually, I think, country, God, family.

01:18:45.460 It might be country, family, God.

01:18:47.200 I don't know.

01:18:48.260 God's in last place now?

01:18:49.760 Gosh.

01:18:50.080 Well, if you don't have – if you don't have – if you don't have country, you won't

01:18:55.160 have God.

01:18:56.180 Yeah.

01:18:57.840 So, and maybe it's country, God, family.

01:19:00.920 And also, that's not true.

01:19:02.600 I mean, like, how many – how many people – how many Afghanis have we talked to over

01:19:07.600 the years that are better at worshiping their God and risking their lives?

01:19:11.720 Country.

01:19:12.120 If you're not participating – if you're – if the godly people don't come out and participate,

01:19:16.140 your country is going to go to hell.

01:19:17.880 You can be godly in a place that does – that where a government tells you you can't.

01:19:21.200 Really?

01:19:21.500 Is this what we're doing?

01:19:22.060 Yeah.

01:19:22.580 I know what you –

01:19:23.500 Oh, I just want to have some critical questions, Glenn.

01:19:25.500 I thought that's what the show was all about.

01:19:26.760 You said critical thinking.

01:19:27.960 I'm being critical of you.

01:19:28.980 That's what you wanted, right?

01:19:29.740 No, that's not what I'm saying.

01:19:30.500 You wanted criticism of you.

01:19:33.420 That's how I took critical thinking.

01:19:35.160 I've got a critical question for some critical thinking.

01:19:37.280 Why the hell are you still here?

01:19:38.140 Why are you still talking? 0.58

01:19:39.040 That's a fair point.

01:19:40.080 It is, right?

01:19:40.720 That's actually what I'm asking myself, too.

01:19:42.220 I think I win that one.

01:19:43.220 Stand by more in a minute.

01:19:46.060 All right.

01:19:46.640 Well, do some critical thinking on sports instead.

01:21:17.340 We'll see you next time.

01:21:47.340 Winners find fabulous for less.

01:21:58.700 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:22:01.180 I want to play a couple of things.

01:22:02.560 First of all, I want to, Stu, if you will, we're going to describe this video here.

01:22:06.880 Okay.

01:22:07.200 This is a vandal working some artwork on a Tesla.

01:22:13.480 Go ahead.

01:22:13.860 Play this.

01:22:15.300 There he's describing.

01:22:16.860 He's getting out of the car.

01:22:18.920 He's hiding.

01:22:20.080 He's hiding now.

01:22:23.260 Again, these people don't realize that Teslas have cameras all over them.

01:22:28.160 Every angle. 1.00

01:22:29.120 Just so stupid. 1.00

01:22:30.300 Okay. 1.00

01:22:30.600 So he's hiding.

01:22:31.800 And now he was caught on camera.

01:22:34.240 And so the person that, who had the Tesla, whose car was keyed, he confronted him in the parking lot.

01:22:42.540 This is satisfying.

01:22:43.760 Listen to this.

01:22:44.640 Free service.

01:22:45.700 Free service.

01:22:46.640 How about you pay for the repairs?

01:22:48.920 Write a check.

01:22:49.680 You just bought a Tesla.

01:22:50.720 I can wipe it off.

01:22:51.500 No, no, no.

01:22:52.600 It's not a key.

01:22:53.220 It is a hate crime, sir.

01:22:54.540 It was a crayon.

01:22:55.060 It is a hate crime.

01:22:56.400 Listen.

01:22:57.080 Did you write a swastika on there?

01:22:58.700 I'm sorry you're upset.

01:22:59.880 Did you write a swastika?

01:23:00.660 It didn't even work.

01:23:01.880 It doesn't work.

01:23:02.340 Did you write a swastika on the...

01:23:04.300 It's a key, sir.

01:23:05.200 We see it on the video.

01:23:06.100 It's not a key.

01:23:07.020 Did you...

01:23:07.440 Is it a swastika?

01:23:08.140 I'm probably putting my keys in my pocket.

01:23:09.400 Is it a swastika?

01:23:10.500 Have you looked at your car?

01:23:11.540 Is it a swastika?

01:23:12.220 Is there a key mark?

01:23:13.760 Is it a swastika?

01:23:14.660 That's impossible.

01:23:15.060 It's at the police right now.

01:23:16.540 It's being fingerprinted.

01:23:18.160 What do you mean it's being fingerprinted?

01:23:19.680 Because they were trying to track you down.

01:23:22.080 Thankfully, Facebook tracked you down.

01:23:23.820 Uh-huh. 0.59

01:23:24.120 So your business, your freaking livelihood, everything now.

01:23:27.780 Listen. 0.86

01:23:28.040 Because you chose to write a...

01:23:30.120 So you tell Facebook that you're sorry for writing a swastika on a Tesla.

01:23:34.940 Listen.

01:23:35.880 I said, I'm sorry.

01:23:38.140 For what?

01:23:38.480 And I apologize.

01:23:39.800 I have nothing against your car, and I have nothing against you.

01:23:42.980 So why would you write a swastika on a Tesla?

01:23:45.820 Obviously, I have something against Elon Musk, but that's not the way to show my...

01:23:49.020 So Elon Musk owns that car?

01:23:50.700 No, he owns the company.

01:23:52.600 Because it was bought and paid for a long time ago.

01:23:55.080 That's why it's misguided, and obviously, I did not intend to do that.

01:23:58.540 Look at the total change.

01:24:00.660 Yeah.

01:24:00.900 What do you mean it's at the police?

01:24:01.880 Why do the police have their fingerprinting it?

01:24:04.380 Aye, boy, was that...

01:24:06.040 Oof.

01:24:06.480 Wow, I feel completely different.

01:24:08.700 Yeah.

01:24:08.900 I mean, like, his explanation at the end there is a good one for, like, a mean tweet.

01:24:15.200 Right?

01:24:15.380 Like, you know, you're right.

01:24:17.400 I shouldn't...

01:24:18.080 I got it carried away, and it's not...

01:24:20.260 I'm upset I shouldn't have done that.

01:24:22.400 When you're keying a car...

01:24:23.800 Yeah.

01:24:24.100 I mean, he says he wasn't keying it.

01:24:25.620 I don't know what the truth is on that.

01:24:27.180 A lot of people have crayons in their pockets as adults.

01:24:29.200 Yeah, right.

01:24:29.900 Come out of the car with the crayon.

01:24:31.420 With the crayon.

01:24:31.900 Holding it like a key.

01:24:32.960 Yeah.

01:24:33.280 One other thing.

01:24:34.140 This is from Wisconsin.

01:24:36.460 This is the founder and CEO of equity firm Valor Integrity Equity Partners with Elon Musk

01:24:41.800 on stage.

01:24:42.960 Listen to this about Social Security.

01:24:44.940 When we saw these numbers, we were like, what is this?

01:24:47.740 In 21, you see 270,000 people goes all the way to 2.1 million in 24.

01:24:54.140 These are non-citizens that are getting Social Security numbers.

01:24:59.300 Yeah.

01:24:59.780 This is a mind-blowing charge.

01:25:01.400 Yeah.

01:25:01.600 Just...

01:25:02.280 This literally blew us away.

01:25:04.440 When you come in the country, if you're illegal, there's a couple ways to come in.

01:25:07.720 You come in through a port of entry, and you can tell them you're afraid.

01:25:10.960 They'll give you an asylum case.

01:25:13.300 You'll get an interview.

01:25:14.320 Then you get in.

01:25:15.360 That's one way to do it.

01:25:16.220 Another way to do it is to just go to the border.

01:25:19.300 Literally, this happened.

01:25:20.060 I talked to Border Patrol myself.

01:25:21.420 Elon was there, too.

01:25:22.780 I went to Laredo, and I went to Bronzeville.

01:25:25.820 Elon went to Eagle Pass.

01:25:27.640 You walk up to a Border Patrol officer, and you tell them you want to come in.

01:25:31.580 They have a couple of choices.

01:25:33.080 They could charge you with a misdemeanor or a felony under 1325, or they can make an

01:25:37.660 administrative offense, like a parking ticket, basically.

01:25:40.220 They were told to do that, make an administrative offense under the last administration.

01:25:44.040 And then you go walk across the border.

01:25:46.500 They do what's called a release of your own recognizance, and they give you an NTA, a notice

01:25:52.320 to appear, which is to appear at a judge.

01:25:54.240 The wait times on judges are like average six years.

01:25:57.280 Look at Garak.

01:25:57.800 You'll see it on immigration judges.

01:25:59.060 There's only 700 of them.

01:26:01.140 This is 5.5 million people.

01:26:03.180 Okay?

01:26:03.640 So what happens then?

01:26:04.980 Once you're in the country, and you've got asylum, through one of these pathways, and

01:26:09.040 we map the whole thing out, you can apply for a work document.

01:26:14.340 You file a 765.

01:26:16.460 It's the work form.

01:26:17.680 You get this form called the 766.

01:26:19.940 That's the authorization.

01:26:20.760 And then Social Security Administration automatically sends you in the mail your Social Security

01:26:26.160 number.

01:26:26.860 No interview.

01:26:27.920 No ID.

01:26:28.720 There are millions of people getting Social Security through that process that just came

01:26:35.520 across our border illegally.

01:26:37.360 This is Glenn Beck.

01:26:39.460 We'll be right back.

01:27:09.460 Oh, yeah.

01:27:15.280 Down the road where shadows hide.

01:27:18.500 Feel the dark on every side.

01:27:21.140 Stand your ground when times get dark.

01:27:23.580 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

01:27:28.180 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:27:32.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:27:35.840 You know, we are now living in a world where it is totally acceptable, even celebrated, to

01:27:43.840 key somebody's car, you know, to torch a Tesla, to beat a woman in a parking lot, all because

01:27:49.320 she drives something made by the wrong billionaire, I guess.

01:27:53.240 That's not a protest.

01:27:54.400 That's not justice.

01:27:55.220 That's just flat-out violence.

01:27:57.400 It's hate wrapped in the language of virtue.

01:28:00.800 And we're going to talk about that.

01:28:02.680 Stu's going to tell us how much virtue you have when you burn a Tesla.

01:28:06.080 I mean, environmental virtue.

01:28:08.460 Because I love these.

01:28:09.720 Environmentalists are the ones who are like, we got to burn these Teslas down to the ground.

01:28:12.800 Really?

01:28:13.100 How much damage are you doing to the planet?

01:28:14.880 I just want you to know, it's kind of like a nutrition box on the side of what you're about

01:28:19.860 to eat.

01:28:20.280 Let me just be that little box for you to show you how many calories you're going to

01:28:24.600 put up into the atmosphere.

01:28:26.600 You burn that Tesla.

01:28:27.700 We'll do that here in just a second.

01:28:29.200 First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

01:28:31.200 It'd be great to do business with a company that represented your best interest.

01:28:35.040 I mean, wouldn't it?

01:28:36.560 Well, hopefully you feel that way if you're a member of the Blaze TV.

01:28:40.120 We try to do the right thing and try to represent your interests.

01:28:43.840 It's a curious thing, though, in a day and age where we have so many choices that we

01:28:47.400 still do business with companies that don't represent our values at all, as well as represent

01:28:53.420 our interests, not even best interests.

01:28:56.520 Take your mobile phone company, for instance.

01:28:58.800 If you're going through the big boys, chances are pretty good you're supporting some of the

01:29:01.840 things with your money that you do not want to support.

01:29:04.580 If you're with Verizon, congratulations, some of your money is going to Planned Parenthood.

01:29:08.700 With Patriot Mobile, on the other hand, you're actually supporting things you believe in

01:29:12.080 because it's a Christian-owned company with awesome cell phone coverage, great U.S.-based

01:29:16.900 customer service, and they take a portion of the money that they make out of their profit

01:29:21.680 and use it to support amazing causes.

01:29:24.780 And they're all up front about it on the front page of the website.

01:29:27.540 You don't have to do it.

01:29:28.540 They're not hiding it at all.

01:29:30.220 They're proud of it.

01:29:31.580 You can have the same great cell service.

01:29:33.640 Talk to an American every time you need customer service and save money.

01:29:37.720 Plus, you know where the money's going to.

01:29:39.680 It's going to a good place.

01:29:40.740 The choice is obvious.

01:29:42.020 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

01:29:53.760 So, you know, you don't have to like Elon Musk.

01:29:56.440 You don't have to drive a Tesla.

01:29:58.460 But when you start cheering for people to be attacked for what they drive, what they say,

01:30:03.600 or who they voted for, you might have lost the plot.

01:30:06.760 But I'm not sure the left gets that.

01:30:09.800 Now, they're just going more and more insane.

01:30:11.560 I mean, the minute you were on the wrong side of Martin Luther King, I mean, it's a pretty good. 1.00

01:30:18.640 What did Martin Luther King said?

01:30:20.440 What did he say?

01:30:21.200 Oh, the opposite?

01:30:22.680 No, I'm pretty sure I'm on the right side then.

01:30:24.700 I mean, who thinks that?

01:30:26.320 Who thinks that?

01:30:28.160 Martin Luther King didn't say, you just got to hurt them and beat them in the streets until they agree with you. 0.72

01:30:33.360 Can you imagine Martin Luther King? 0.99

01:30:34.760 Yeah, you know what I got to tell you, we're going to beat the snot out of those people every day until we get our way. 0.90

01:30:41.640 No.

01:30:42.740 In fact, he said the opposite.

01:30:43.920 Hate cannot drive out hate.

01:30:45.280 Only love can do that.

01:30:46.580 So, when did the left flip the script?

01:30:49.320 When did rage become righteousness now?

01:30:54.000 When did we start thinking that violence was a valid argument?

01:30:57.660 I mean, this is incredible.

01:31:01.220 We just played this video of this guy who sneaks out of his car, doesn't know that Teslas have cameras all over them, sneaks out of his car, and he's keying the side of a Tesla.

01:31:12.040 They catch him, and he's like, what?

01:31:14.440 What?

01:31:14.900 No, I, what are you talking about?

01:31:16.680 Come on, man.

01:31:18.320 And he's an adult.

01:31:20.180 He's an actual adult.

01:31:21.640 This isn't a 20-something.

01:31:22.800 This guy, how old do you think he is, Sarah?

01:31:24.500 35?

01:31:25.320 40?

01:31:25.680 I was even going higher, maybe 50.

01:31:28.340 Yeah.

01:31:28.720 I mean, this is an adult.

01:31:32.180 You know, this is much bigger than Teslas.

01:31:35.340 This is about the idea that violence is okay if your cause is just enough.

01:31:41.380 You know, if you're allowed to destroy somebody else's property or their body, you can do it as long as you feel like you're the victim.

01:31:51.180 And I get it.

01:31:51.980 Some people are angry, I guess.

01:31:53.520 I'd hate to live my life.

01:31:54.600 Wouldn't you hate to live your life that way all the time, being so angry all the time?

01:32:00.160 The second you use force to silence or punish somebody for thinking differently than you, you're no longer the good guy.

01:32:06.380 I don't know if you catch that yet. 0.98

01:32:10.800 You're a bully with a slogan. 1.00

01:32:12.380 That's all you are. 0.99

01:32:13.100 So, today, I've been trying to concentrate on how to talk to your friends.

01:32:19.160 How do you, you know, how do you talk to people who defend this kind of behavior?

01:32:24.240 How do you talk to your family?

01:32:25.360 Because I know I have members of my family that, you know, they don't listen to me.

01:32:28.980 You know, because I'm Glenn.

01:32:32.700 You know what I mean?

01:32:33.380 Nobody in my family is impressed by me.

01:32:36.220 Nobody.

01:32:38.340 And, you know, it's good because it keeps you humble.

01:32:41.060 But, you know, they don't listen to me.

01:32:43.260 I don't have my, nobody in my family is like, well, ask Glenn because I bet he was there and saw that.

01:32:49.740 No.

01:32:50.780 No.

01:32:51.560 We saw it on CNN.

01:32:52.720 That's enough for us.

01:32:53.680 Okay.

01:32:54.160 All right.

01:32:54.560 Well, okay.

01:32:57.440 We have to start asking people.

01:33:01.500 First of all, we have to decide if we're going to be friends with our family or not.

01:33:05.420 Because I think anybody, it's a cult that tells you not to be friends with your family.

01:33:10.860 That's what a cult does.

01:33:12.260 A cult says, divorce yourself from your family.

01:33:14.780 Don't talk to your family.

01:33:15.980 If they disagree with you, if they don't believe in what we believe, get away from them.

01:33:20.560 And never talk to them again.

01:33:21.820 That's a cult.

01:33:23.480 That's a warning sign.

01:33:25.400 Okay.

01:33:26.260 So, let's be the opposite.

01:33:28.660 Let's make sure everybody knows we love our family.

01:33:31.460 We want to be with you.

01:33:33.540 But, you know, we don't want to disagree with you.

01:33:37.320 But we're also not going to avoid the truth.

01:33:41.120 But I really want to understand, if you're for all this Tesla stuff, and you'll say, well, I'm not for all of it.

01:33:48.140 Well, I mean, you kind of, you know, you kind of have to take all of it here.

01:33:55.160 Because this is all one in the same now.

01:33:57.440 It's the same package.

01:33:59.720 Ask them, would you feel good about this if this was done to your car?

01:34:06.280 Now, who could say yes to that?

01:34:09.660 Would you feel good if that was happening to your sister?

01:34:13.020 Would you feel good if that 61-year-old woman in Phoenix, if that was your sister or your mom?

01:34:21.820 Would you feel good about that?

01:34:24.260 Nobody would.

01:34:25.580 Nobody would.

01:34:26.920 So, how is it you're standing by and saying it's okay?

01:34:30.380 Let me ask you, is violence the answer when you don't get your way?

01:34:37.960 Because this is what I always heard from the left.

01:34:40.920 You know, war is just violence, and you don't get anywhere with violence.

01:34:44.320 Well, okay.

01:34:46.040 Do you guys remember saying that?

01:34:47.320 Because it turns out I think you're right, kind of, you know?

01:34:50.400 War is different, but we've made a lot of mistakes in war.

01:34:54.660 So, why did you leave that?

01:34:56.740 Why did you abandon that place?

01:34:58.060 Why did you abandon that place?

01:35:00.980 What happens when the other side starts doing the same thing back to you?

01:35:04.100 Are you going to be okay with that?

01:35:05.780 Or are you only okay with it on your side?

01:35:08.820 Because if your ideology only works when it's enforced by fist or fire, then your philosophy doesn't work, okay?

01:35:18.000 You don't win the hearts and minds of people with hatred.

01:35:20.740 You don't fix injustice by committing your own injustice.

01:35:24.680 Now, I know that's not what we're being taught in schools now.

01:35:28.720 The only way to be an anti-racist is—the only way to not be racist is to be an anti-racist, right?

01:35:35.340 Or pro—what do they call it?

01:35:37.640 Yeah, I think you're right.

01:35:38.500 The only way to not be a racist is to be an anti-racist.

01:35:41.960 Not being racist is enough.

01:35:44.120 It is enough.

01:35:44.780 It is not enough, okay?

01:35:46.920 You don't build a better world by burning something down in somebody else's driveway.

01:35:52.600 You don't.

01:35:53.520 And we have to stop pretending that this is okay.

01:35:55.880 And you just have to start asking, because it's not okay.

01:36:00.240 It's never okay.

01:36:01.280 It's not from anyone.

01:36:02.320 It wasn't on January 6th.

01:36:05.200 Why are you okay with people doing things that are violent now?

01:36:08.880 You weren't for January 6th.

01:36:10.320 I'm here to tell you I proudly was against January 6th on January 6th and the 7th and the 8th.

01:36:17.280 And I still am today, for anybody who is there, actually committing violence.

01:36:23.040 Hmm.

01:36:23.520 Where are you?

01:36:26.520 Because I'm against this violence, and I was against that violence.

01:36:29.720 And if we can't say that out loud anymore, then we're not a movement.

01:36:33.660 You're not a movement anymore.

01:36:36.060 You on the left, you're no longer a movement.

01:36:38.760 You're a mob.

01:36:39.760 That's all you are. 0.99

01:36:41.840 And you're really half a step away from not being a mob, but terrorists.

01:36:46.800 That's scary.

01:36:49.480 Come back to common sense.

01:36:50.960 Come back to reality.

01:36:52.240 You know that's wrong.

01:36:53.520 You know it's wrong.

01:36:55.940 Do unto others.

01:36:57.500 Do unto others.

01:36:59.060 Is that, would you be happy if my side were doing it to you?

01:37:02.980 No, you wouldn't.

01:37:04.920 So why tolerate it?

01:37:06.760 Stand up.

01:37:08.040 It's okay.

01:37:08.820 It's okay to stand up and say, I mean, I did this yesterday.

01:37:13.360 We, I mean, Stu and I, it's going to become very unpopular.

01:37:16.600 I don't think it is now, but it's going to become very unpopular to say these things.

01:37:20.260 But the third term, you know, Donald Trump.

01:37:23.500 I'm talking about, you know, possibility of third term.

01:37:26.380 The, the New York Times is, is saying today, he's just doing that.

01:37:30.400 So he won't be a lame duck in the last two years.

01:37:32.300 Maybe, maybe.

01:37:34.280 But I, I think there are some people around him that are absolutely serious.

01:37:37.780 I think Steve Bannon is one of them.

01:37:39.300 He's dead serious about, you know, there are ways.

01:37:42.300 No, no, there, there are not ways.

01:37:44.380 There are not ways.

01:37:45.320 You know, Roger Ailes said to me at one point, he said, Glenn, we all love the Constitution.

01:37:48.820 But there are things that we have to do from time to time.

01:37:51.580 And I'm like, no, there's not.

01:37:53.140 There's not things we have to do.

01:37:54.500 We always have to abide by the Constitution.

01:37:57.620 That's, that's, that's the answer there.

01:38:00.180 And this, and this is going to get hard for a lot of people.

01:38:02.440 Because I really, truly believe Donald Trump is the only one with the backbone, the spine, the vision to stand up and to withstand all of the punches that he has received.

01:38:15.480 Can you name one other person that could go through everything that he's gone through and actually turn out to be nicer?

01:38:24.660 Because I don't know a soul.

01:38:26.420 I'm, I believe, I can't tell you that the election was stolen in 2020, but I can't tell you it wasn't.

01:38:36.300 I just think it was unfair.

01:38:38.220 I don't, I think something was hinky about that.

01:38:40.740 It's actually turned out to be a blessing that he had those four years away so he could, you know, get his sea legs.

01:38:45.940 But, and I also believe that by 20, by 2028, that's not enough time to fix the country.

01:38:53.500 And it's not enough time to finish the job.

01:38:55.500 It's going to take eight to 12 years.

01:38:58.040 And I also believe extraordinary times call for extraordinary men.

01:39:01.840 So I believe all those things about Donald Trump.

01:39:06.900 Now, a separate question.

01:39:10.200 You can believe all those things and not be against Donald Trump or anything else, not be un-American and say, no, you know, we don't bend or break the Constitution to keep my preferred leader in power.

01:39:24.420 Because if you break the Constitution to do that, then you've already lost the country you're trying to save.

01:39:30.860 Now, if you want to change the Constitution, that's legal.

01:39:33.800 That's what you have to do.

01:39:35.400 But if you want to find a little trick to make it happen, then I can't go with you there.

01:39:39.700 Because you're not saving the country.

01:39:41.860 You're destroying the Constitution.

01:39:44.520 As I look at this, there are, we have to reroute ourselves back into principles.

01:39:50.500 So let me give you some principles on this one.

01:39:52.520 Principle number one.

01:39:53.880 Do the ends ever justify the means?

01:39:56.680 When it comes to power, do the ends ever justify the means?

01:40:00.820 No.

01:40:01.220 So letting your guy break the rules today sets a precedent for the other side to do the same tomorrow, only worse, with no resistance.

01:40:10.120 Power grabs are never one-time exceptions.

01:40:13.240 They become habits. 0.99

01:40:14.540 And they always come around and bite you in the butt. 1.00

01:40:17.560 Take Venezuela. 0.99

01:40:18.800 You remember Hugo Chavez?

01:40:20.420 He rewrote the Constitution to stay in power for the people.

01:40:24.920 And every but one of his supporters cheered when he did it.

01:40:28.980 By the time his successor, Nicolas Maduro, took over, the economy had collapsed, elections became a sham, and millions were forced to flee.

01:40:37.360 And the same crowd that was cheering for Chavez for the third term for Chavez, guess what?

01:40:43.160 They were imprisoned, silenced, or exiled under the very rules they helped rewrite.

01:40:49.020 It doesn't work out well.

01:40:51.640 Principle two.

01:40:53.040 If you love the Constitution, you don't make exceptions for your guy.

01:40:58.000 If you love the rule of law, my guy broke the law, he's got to go to jail.

01:41:03.260 Constitution is not a menu.

01:41:04.720 It's not like I'll have a little of that and a little of that.

01:41:06.620 No.

01:41:07.620 This is one of those restaurants you walk into and they're like, there are no substitutions.

01:41:12.960 You don't get to pick the parts you follow based on your convenience or your loyalty.

01:41:17.640 Your loyalty is to the law, is to the Constitution.

01:41:20.620 And if you start saying, well, just this once, if you make exceptions like that, what you're doing is you're loosening all the bolts on the wings of an airplane.

01:41:29.120 Well, just this one bolt.

01:41:30.880 No, no, no.

01:41:31.800 Let's not take that one bolt because somebody else will say, yeah, let's just loosen this bolt.

01:41:36.380 Just this one time.

01:41:37.320 Eventually, you fall out of the sky.

01:41:40.940 The nation's not held together by personalities.

01:41:43.120 It's held together by principles.

01:41:44.780 And that's why we're in the trouble we're in because not enough people understand no man is above the law.

01:41:50.420 They certainly didn't understand that under Biden.

01:41:52.500 No man is above the law, period.

01:41:56.500 Principle number three.

01:41:59.160 You got to ask yourself this question.

01:42:02.020 Would I like this if it were somebody I despised?

01:42:06.720 Would I like it if Joe Biden or Barack Obama was trying to change the rule so he could find a way to run a third term?

01:42:16.600 No, I wouldn't.

01:42:19.780 So, no.

01:42:21.940 If I don't like it, if the other guy does it, that I can't like it, it's not right for me.

01:42:27.580 And it might work out for a while.

01:42:29.100 You could get your policies and your judges.

01:42:31.340 You might get your revenge.

01:42:32.580 Maybe even get healing out of it.

01:42:34.260 The whole world is great.

01:42:36.080 But what happens when that guy is gone?

01:42:39.520 There are no term limits anymore.

01:42:41.260 Who says that there are term limits?

01:42:43.180 You can't ignore these things.

01:42:44.520 Somebody, Newsom, AOC, or worse, comes along, seizes the president, declares they're not leaving either.

01:42:52.100 This is what the Democrats do.

01:42:54.440 You know, if they would have changed the number of the Supreme Court, how do you think that'd be working out for them right now?

01:43:00.800 I don't think it'd be working out well.

01:43:04.100 They would have handed us the key.

01:43:06.100 But there is no key to this engine, okay?

01:43:10.280 The country's engine only works with principles.

01:43:13.420 It decays.

01:43:14.240 It enslaves.

01:43:15.200 It destroys without those principles.

01:43:18.640 We're either guardians of that document or we're not.

01:43:22.660 And if the Constitution cannot restrain your favorite leader, it can't restrain the worst one.

01:43:28.000 You've got to ask yourself, would I be happy with anyone else doing what I'm asking him to do?

01:43:35.820 Would I be happy with that?

01:43:37.460 Would I be happy with my side keying the cars, the sides of cars?

01:43:42.580 No.

01:43:43.520 Would I be fine with their side keying cars?

01:43:45.540 No.

01:43:45.900 You might win today, but you don't want to give your enemies weapons that will destroy you tomorrow. 0.88

01:43:52.740 You know, if your house is infested with rats and you love your house, do you burn down your house to kill the rats?

01:43:59.000 No.

01:44:00.360 Wanting a third term to fix the system is like setting your own house on fire because you saw rats in the walls.

01:44:05.440 A fire's going to kill a rat, sure, but it also destroys your home.

01:44:08.420 The foundation leaves you nothing, no roof to protect you.

01:44:13.240 The Constitution is your house.

01:44:15.540 You don't burn it down to save it.

01:44:18.020 And the last principle is, the easiest one to remember, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

01:44:24.020 If the answer is no, I wouldn't want them to do that to me, then it's not right.

01:44:28.200 That's it.

01:44:30.280 Life is not that complicated.

01:44:32.300 Back in just a second, let me tell you about Lear Capital.

01:44:34.680 When a storm comes along, you're always going to be glad if your house is built on a solid foundation,

01:44:39.400 something that can withstand the wind and the rain and the chaos.

01:44:42.800 How about your financial house?

01:44:44.180 It needs to be built on solid foundation, something that can withstand things like the dollar losing its value.

01:45:38.280 10 seconds.

01:45:38.980 Station ID.

01:45:39.480 How much time do we have here, Sarah?

01:45:51.420 I want to get into your calorie counting.

01:45:55.600 Yes.

01:45:56.200 Of Tesla's burning.

01:45:58.820 Yeah, when you go to the side of whatever you're eating, they have that nice little breakdown of all the nutritional facts.

01:46:05.500 That's kind of what I decided to go for.

01:46:07.140 And when it comes down to when you burn a Tesla, what does that mean for your beloved environment?

01:46:14.300 Now, I'm guessing, by the way you say it, that it's not good for the environment.

01:46:18.740 No.

01:46:19.540 Really?

01:46:19.880 I would tend to agree with that analysis.

01:46:22.660 One kind of, this isn't part of this particular analysis, but just to add on, give you a taste.

01:46:28.000 Each Tesla fire that breaks out can use as much as 36,000 gallons of water to put away.

01:46:40.960 This happened, there was one in, I think it was Alabama back in 2023.

01:46:44.700 It was a fire.

01:46:45.660 You know, these are specialized batteries.

01:46:47.680 There's a lot going on in a Tesla.

01:46:49.080 You don't want them to catch fire.

01:46:50.160 Oh, I know.

01:46:50.440 If you can help it.

01:46:52.340 And it took 36,000 gallons just to put out the fire.

01:46:56.320 You know, I have a ranch, and it's all solar.

01:47:00.080 And we were talking about, some experts came out, said, you need lithium batteries.

01:47:03.540 You've got to put lithium batteries here.

01:47:04.940 And I said, I live in the middle of a forest.

01:47:07.940 One of these things go off.

01:47:09.300 I burn the entire forest down.

01:47:11.720 There's not enough water to put them out.

01:47:13.360 And they said, no, you just build a giant concrete crypt.

01:47:18.580 Oh.

01:47:18.960 And you put them in there.

01:47:19.760 And I'm like, oh, it's just that easy.

01:47:21.400 Just like Chernobyl.

01:47:22.680 It was just that easy.

01:47:23.400 Just like Chernobyl.

01:47:24.640 That should tell you something about them.

01:47:26.780 Yes.

01:47:27.300 You just put them in a crypt.

01:47:28.700 Oh.

01:47:29.180 Oh.

01:47:29.820 Okay.

01:47:30.520 No, I don't think so.

01:47:32.300 Again, if you don't set them on fire, Tesla seemed to do pretty well. 0.98

01:47:36.300 There was an issue back in the day, we used to talk about it, where they would have

01:47:39.100 some issues with seeing spontaneously combusting.

01:47:42.540 But that seems to have gone away.

01:47:44.040 That's gone away.

01:47:44.640 That's good.

01:47:45.160 It's a positive development.

01:47:46.320 It is a positive.

01:47:47.360 So try not to do it on your own, I would say.

01:47:50.900 Stay away from letting them on fire.

01:47:52.180 All right.

01:47:52.360 So we're going to go through that calorie count here in just a second.

01:47:54.840 See how healthy it is to protest and burn cars down.

01:47:59.160 Because it's good for the environment.

01:48:00.660 At least that's what I heard Stu say.

01:48:01.980 It's good for the environment.

01:48:03.700 More in just a second.

01:48:09.800 This is Glenn Beck.

01:48:12.540 You know, one of the reasons why I like to be prepared is because I really don't like

01:48:20.520 surprises and I don't like, you know, you get so upset and so wigged out if something

01:48:27.180 is thrown your way and you didn't see it coming.

01:48:31.080 The people who do the best in emergency situations without fail are the ones that can remain calm.

01:48:37.580 They're the people who, you know, remain calm and they're most likely to be the ones that

01:48:42.620 make it through it and they're most likely to be the ones that were prepared for any bad

01:48:47.240 thing to happen in the first place.

01:48:48.780 You're that prepared person.

01:48:50.440 So whether you're stocking up short-term emergency food or looking for long-term survival food,

01:48:55.160 My Patriot Supply is the place you want to go if you're that prepared person.

01:49:35.860 There is something very, very important going on.

01:49:52.140 We want to make sure we address it properly.

01:49:54.900 Cory Booker is on the floor of the Senate and he's filibustering.

01:50:02.020 Well, he's not actually filibustering because he's not stopping a bill or anything.

01:50:05.260 He's just talking and he's been talking since last night.

01:50:08.120 At length.

01:50:08.780 Yeah.

01:50:09.240 It's like, you know, Mr. Smith goes to Washington.

01:50:12.080 Yeah.

01:50:12.280 It's like Mr. Smith goes nowhere.

01:50:15.940 But so can we just, because it's important that we hear.

01:50:20.000 Yeah.

01:50:20.160 Just give me just a little bit.

01:50:23.100 Oh.

01:50:23.640 Oh, really?

01:50:24.960 Oh, that's too bad.

01:50:25.720 We don't have it.

01:50:26.480 Oh, gosh.

01:50:26.980 That's a real disappointment.

01:50:28.160 I thought it was right there on the back screen there.

01:50:29.760 I see it, sir.

01:50:30.520 I mean, he looks like he's, there it is.

01:50:32.840 Just give me a little bit of it.

01:50:33.860 Yeah.

01:50:35.260 You have it?

01:50:36.100 No, apparently not.

01:50:37.340 We do not have it.

01:50:38.060 I will say it doesn't look a lot like Cory Booker.

01:50:40.520 He's lightened his tone a bit.

01:50:42.820 Yeah.

01:50:43.180 He looks more like Senator Chris Van Hollen.

01:50:45.060 He does look almost exactly like Senator Chris Van Hollen from Maryland.

01:50:49.360 I don't know.

01:50:49.800 Maybe Mr. Smith had to go to potty.

01:50:52.240 I don't know.

01:50:52.880 Maybe he had to go.

01:50:53.440 Yeah, that's true.

01:50:53.960 Yeah.

01:50:54.240 Mr. Smith had potty breaks.

01:50:55.520 He did.

01:50:56.180 He did.

01:50:56.620 Well, no.

01:50:57.140 No, he didn't.

01:50:57.620 No, he didn't.

01:50:58.180 No, he didn't.

01:50:58.400 That's what a filibuster was really.

01:50:59.500 A filibuster.

01:51:00.160 Yeah.

01:51:00.640 Yeah.

01:51:00.860 You have to keep talking.

01:51:01.620 Yeah.

01:51:01.780 Keep talking.

01:51:02.340 Yeah.

01:51:02.540 Keep talking.

01:51:04.000 And they do important work at.

01:51:06.200 Wow.

01:51:06.480 That's great.

01:51:07.080 Okay.

01:51:07.380 I think we got it.

01:51:08.140 That was more than I needed.

01:51:09.480 Yeah.

01:51:09.580 Yeah.

01:51:09.880 It was important to check in.

01:51:10.860 We got it.

01:51:11.420 Okay.

01:51:11.780 So I'm waiting for the nutritional value of burning Teslas.

01:51:16.640 For those who believe that, you know, global warming is an existential threat.

01:51:23.060 The.

01:51:23.560 The.

01:51:24.220 Greatest.

01:51:24.760 That we are.

01:51:25.240 Existential threat.

01:51:25.660 We only have five years to stop producing pretty much all of our, our, our, our, our

01:51:36.960 carbon emissions.

01:51:38.440 Yes.

01:51:38.820 But it's just like all of it.

01:51:40.580 Okay.

01:51:41.000 We're at a tipping point almost here.

01:51:42.680 Well, we're at a tipping point.

01:51:43.720 We can't go back.

01:51:44.480 And last thing you want to do when you're on a tipping point, you just don't even want

01:51:47.060 to, you just don't even want to breathe, you know, don't want a breath to come in just

01:51:50.640 because you can fall right over the tipping point.

01:51:52.260 You don't want that.

01:51:53.060 You don't want that.

01:51:53.600 Now, speaking of that, um, what kind of positive things does burning Teslas do?

01:51:59.460 Let's think about the, uh, the options here.

01:52:01.520 What do you have to do?

01:52:02.180 You could drive a gas vehicle like we have forever.

01:52:04.580 Yes.

01:52:05.040 We know that's bad.

01:52:05.640 That would be bad.

01:52:06.060 That would be bad.

01:52:06.860 Now you may, let me go through the numbers on a driving a gas powered vehicle, manufacturing

01:52:11.160 nine metric tons of CO2 equivalent.

01:52:13.440 Wow.

01:52:13.820 Okay.

01:52:14.100 Wow.

01:52:14.320 That's bad.

01:52:15.220 Uh, the operation.

01:52:16.380 I don't buy.

01:52:16.820 That's why I don't have it.

01:52:17.800 Well, I, I still have a gas guzzling car, but I have a bigger one.

01:52:21.560 Yeah.

01:52:21.720 You, you increase it.

01:52:22.620 Your, your numbers would be higher.

01:52:23.880 I will say, knowing Glenn and his car collection, it would definitely be a little higher.

01:52:27.540 A tad higher than his numbers.

01:52:29.040 You know, Jay Leno and I were talking about one of his cars just the other day.

01:52:32.400 It gets two miles a gallon.

01:52:34.300 Two.

01:52:34.500 And I'm like, wow, I'd like to achieve that someday.

01:52:37.920 Two full miles.

01:52:38.600 Two full miles.

01:52:39.800 Downhill.

01:52:40.500 Downhill.

01:52:40.980 Yeah.

01:52:41.300 Yeah.

01:52:41.540 Yeah.

01:52:41.920 Of course.

01:52:42.560 Yeah.

01:52:42.640 It's not on.

01:52:44.040 Yeah.

01:52:44.140 Okay.

01:52:45.740 So, uh, manufacturing nine metric tons of CO2 equivalent operation of that vehicle, about

01:52:50.620 31 tons.

01:52:52.120 And then the end of life as they, you know, you put it in the junkyard and all those other

01:52:55.840 things.

01:52:56.100 You got two more metric tons.

01:52:57.980 Total of 42 tons of CO2 equivalent.

01:53:02.480 42 tons.

01:53:03.540 Now that is, as we know, the thing that's going to kill all of us.

01:53:07.580 Yeah.

01:53:07.740 That's, that's the, that's, it's, that's Bigfoot.

01:53:10.640 It's the, it's the Bigfoot that's coming in with a Bigfoot, a carbon foot, and just stuffing 0.72

01:53:15.960 it down your throat. 0.74

01:53:16.880 It's good. 0.99

01:53:18.160 We're all going to die. 0.98

01:53:19.220 We're all going to die. 0.56

01:53:20.040 That's how bad that is.

01:53:21.040 That's why we have electric cars.

01:53:22.880 That's why we have electric cars.

01:53:23.740 Now, let me take the alternate scenario.

01:53:25.980 Okay.

01:53:26.200 Now, hang on just a second.

01:53:27.200 Give me the number again.

01:53:28.340 So I just have it written down.

01:53:29.460 Cause I just want to show.

01:53:30.300 I want to do the math here.

01:53:31.500 Sure.

01:53:31.780 Yeah.

01:53:32.120 42.08 metric tons.

01:53:34.420 42.08 metric tons.

01:53:38.160 Okay.

01:53:38.360 Got it.

01:53:38.760 Okay.

01:53:38.920 That is for operating a gas powered vehicle.

01:53:41.580 Hate those things.

01:53:42.700 Then.

01:53:43.600 Yeah.

01:53:43.780 Then you have, let's say you're like, I want to be environmentally safe.

01:53:47.520 I want to buy a cool Tesla.

01:53:48.760 Yeah.

01:53:48.920 You buy a Tesla Cybertruck, right?

01:53:50.600 Okay.

01:53:50.820 Those are the ones they've been mainly lighting on fire.

01:53:52.760 There's been a various attacks on all sorts of cars, of course, but the Cybertruck, I

01:53:56.580 think has been the biggest target.

01:53:58.080 Sure.

01:53:58.220 So you buy a Cybertruck.

01:53:59.580 Uh, then someone comes and lights it on fire and destroys it.

01:54:03.960 Then you, what do you have to do?

01:54:05.900 You got to still get around, right?

01:54:06.960 So you replace it with another Cybertruck.

01:54:09.020 Okay.

01:54:09.400 How does that look for the environment?

01:54:11.000 Yeah.

01:54:11.140 So you're manufacturing a Cybertruck, 22.5 metric tons of CO2 equivalent.

01:54:16.100 22.

01:54:16.700 22.

01:54:16.920 Then the fire impact, just setting it on fire by itself, just that day.

01:54:22.120 Just that day.

01:54:22.600 Another five metric tons.

01:54:24.520 Five metric tons.

01:54:25.420 Yes.

01:54:26.000 Now, again, to real-

01:54:26.980 Almost a quarter of making it.

01:54:28.420 Almost a quarter of making it.

01:54:29.500 Yeah.

01:54:29.600 And half, more than half of making a gas powered vehicle.

01:54:33.620 Ha.

01:54:34.040 Okay.

01:54:34.360 More than half.

01:54:35.320 Okay.

01:54:35.740 Okay.

01:54:36.040 All right.

01:54:36.260 Now, five metric tons for the fire itself, all the things that go into the-

01:54:41.400 Now, did you figure out how much the big, huge fire truck that's just burning diesel fuel

01:54:45.940 like crazy?

01:54:46.420 I think that's, I mean, I guess technically that's, I don't know if that's included or

01:54:49.380 not in this analysis.

01:54:50.720 Maybe not in Alaska and Hawaii.

01:54:52.480 Not in Alaska and Hawaii.

01:54:53.400 Okay.

01:54:53.500 Next, you got to replace it with another Cybertruck.

01:54:56.280 So, that's got to be manufactured.

01:54:57.340 Another 22.5 metric tons of CO2.

01:54:59.800 Yeah.

01:55:00.340 Then, you're going to operate that Cybertruck for the life of the vehicle while you have

01:55:04.220 it.

01:55:04.360 12.17 metric tons of CO2.

01:55:06.700 And then the end-of-life replacement, as it kind of degrades, you have another two metric

01:55:11.020 tons.

01:55:11.700 Total emissions, 64.17 metric tons of CO2 equivalent.

01:55:17.100 Now, it seems, it seems.

01:55:20.760 It seems.

01:55:21.080 I'm not a mathematician.

01:55:22.020 No.

01:55:22.580 Okay.

01:55:22.820 But I am a thinker.

01:55:25.680 You are.

01:55:26.160 And it seems like 64.17 is a bigger number than 42.08.

01:55:35.340 Glenn, very, very good.

01:55:37.440 I didn't go to school for it, but, you know, hey, I know smart people.

01:55:40.380 You might recognize it as about a 50% increase in emissions.

01:55:44.320 So, that's kind of, you'd think a really bad thing.

01:55:47.200 Bad thing to do.

01:55:48.180 Really bad thing.

01:55:49.100 Especially if we're on the edge.

01:55:50.620 However, we have another scenario here, which I feel like is maybe a little bit more likely.

01:55:57.180 Okay.

01:55:57.600 All right.

01:55:57.880 Because the person, let's say you start off, you buy a Cybertruck.

01:56:02.220 Someone comes, lights it on fire as your family looks in horror.

01:56:06.160 Hopefully not on the inside of it while it's lit on fire.

01:56:08.360 Yeah, well, serve them right.

01:56:10.820 They voted differently.

01:56:11.620 Right.

01:56:12.140 Yeah.

01:56:12.460 You may be like, you know what I want to do with my next vehicle?

01:56:14.880 Not get another Cybertruck.

01:56:16.180 I might want to instead just get a gas-powered vehicle next time.

01:56:19.800 Right.

01:56:20.080 If you do that, you've got the Cybertruck originally manufactured for 22.5 tons, the fire impact five more tons, the replacement gas vehicle manufacturing of nine metric tons, the replacement gas vehicle operation of 31 tons, the replacement gas vehicle end of life at two metric tons, a total of 69.58 metric tons.

01:56:39.740 Is that still bigger than 46, 42.0?

01:56:42.940 Yes, it is.

01:56:43.600 Zero.

01:56:44.280 It is.

01:56:45.060 Seven.

01:56:45.260 That's weird.

01:56:46.060 It is a lot higher.

01:56:47.240 So, I mean, and if you kind of look at another kind of interesting way to look at this is you've got about 40, it's about 40, let's see, Cybertruck and a gas-powered vehicle really about equal.

01:57:01.620 I mean, it's actually the Cybertruck.

01:57:02.940 If you drive it for a lot longer, you can get to the positive side on the Cybertruck.

01:57:07.480 But generally speaking, for the first at least seven years of its life, which is when the average person owns their car for, it's going to be worse for the environment, even without setting it on fire.

01:57:17.140 And then you set it on fire, it gets a lot worse.

01:57:18.540 How's it going to be worse?

01:57:19.360 It's got that free electricity.

01:57:21.220 Yeah.

01:57:21.620 Well, first of all, no, it doesn't.

01:57:23.240 But secondly, it also takes a lot more to manufacture.

01:57:27.180 I don't know if you caught that number.

01:57:28.960 Manufacture, more than double as far as CO2 equivalent.

01:57:31.800 I saw that, but it doesn't count.

01:57:34.240 Oh.

01:57:35.180 See, you got me on that point.

01:57:36.580 And again, critical thinking.

01:57:38.040 Thank you.

01:57:38.520 I was just blurting out these numbers, and you critically thought of my numbers and then just ask a question.

01:57:43.920 And what are the batteries made?

01:57:44.320 Are the batteries made here or are the batteries made in China?

01:57:47.320 I don't know.

01:57:47.760 It's a good question.

01:57:48.480 I would say probably, well, knowing the tariff situation, I think the tariffs would hit batteries, wouldn't they?

01:57:54.740 Yeah, I think so.

01:57:55.880 I know Tesla actually did write a letter kind of saying, hey, like, can we not have tariffs on our cars, maybe?

01:58:03.440 They did attempt that.

01:58:04.520 I don't know if theirs is built in China, though.

01:58:06.620 I know they have a huge manufacturing here in Texas.

01:58:09.580 Yeah, right.

01:58:10.320 And in other parts in the country.

01:58:11.860 But everybody else's battery is made in China, so that's good.

01:58:14.520 Because, I mean, they're so good for the environment over there.

01:58:18.300 They are.

01:58:18.620 I trust them with batteries.

01:58:22.080 You know, batteries and rivers, I bet China does well.

01:58:25.400 And viruses.

01:58:26.260 And viruses.

01:58:26.700 I'm big on the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

01:58:29.280 Yeah, right.

01:58:29.560 I was looking because they did put, and this is Biden, by the way, put 100% tariffs on Chinese manufactured electric vehicles.

01:58:41.640 Because, again, a totally defensible thing for Donald Trump to do, right?

01:58:49.500 He has a real issue with China and believes that they're a major foe.

01:58:53.260 He has been pro-tariffs his entire adult life in the public.

01:58:57.640 Everyone knows he's been for tariffs since the 80s.

01:58:58.980 His first word was tariff.

01:59:00.440 Yes.

01:59:00.920 Like, no, mommy.

01:59:02.440 Mommy.

01:59:03.200 Tariff.

01:59:04.240 So we know that from him.

01:59:05.720 Right.

01:59:05.860 Is it a defensible thing from Joe Biden to do?

01:59:09.400 Because you're telling me the greatest existential threat is not China, but it is global warming.

01:59:17.120 And then China is producing a couple of actually really nice electric vehicles, but many that are terrible and low price, but would be great for the quote unquote environment.

01:59:28.900 How do you know?

01:59:29.540 Why would you not?

01:59:30.180 How do you know what electric vehicles China is?

01:59:33.820 Well, there's one that's pretty cool.

01:59:36.580 What is it?

01:59:37.300 It's a Lotus.

01:59:38.900 That's English.

01:59:40.180 It is English.

01:59:41.980 Manufactured in China.

01:59:42.980 This one particular. 1.00

01:59:44.120 Oh, those rat bastards. 1.00

01:59:45.040 Right. 1.00

01:59:45.460 They got China. 0.83

01:59:46.100 They got England too. 0.65

01:59:47.280 Wow.

01:59:47.360 So these people, I mean, let me, Glenn, do we have sad puppy dog music?

01:59:52.480 Yeah.

01:59:52.880 Do we have some sad music?

01:59:54.320 Is this going to be, are people going to cry because maybe the Lotus that don't have a Lotus?

02:00:01.880 There are Lotus, there are Lotus owners or people who want to buy Lotuses or Lotus Eye.

02:00:07.960 Lot Eyes.

02:00:08.520 Lot Eyes, which they want to get the brand new Lotus Elettra.

02:00:13.960 Wow.

02:00:14.320 Which is available in theory right now, but can't be imported in the United States because

02:00:18.480 it's these 100% tariffs.

02:00:20.000 Yeah.

02:00:20.320 And we're talking about a car that should be like $120,000, but instead is looking at $229,000.

02:00:27.900 Sounds specific.

02:00:29.040 It doesn't sound, sounds a little like he's been looking into this.

02:00:32.900 I know.

02:00:33.320 I mean, you know, I'm just saying it's a pretty cool looking car.

02:00:35.920 I was at a friend's place on Saturday and I was just stopping by and seeing he has an

02:00:41.060 exotic car, you know, place and I just love going to look at his cars and I went in and

02:00:46.400 there was a Lotus and I knew Stu was looking at a Lotus and I didn't know anybody about it.

02:00:49.280 I mean, I just think they're cool.

02:00:50.340 Yeah.

02:00:50.440 I just never seen one and I just, I saw one and I'm like, oh, he's looking for one, but

02:00:55.780 it was the little small sports car, which you're not looking.

02:00:58.180 Cause I thought to myself, this is not going to go over well with Lisa.

02:01:03.180 Right.

02:01:03.600 She's not going to say yes to this, but you were looking at an SUV.

02:01:07.000 Yeah.

02:01:07.240 They just, they released like that SUV type of thing called the Electra.

02:01:10.880 I talked to the guys about it.

02:01:12.480 They were like, it is fantastic.

02:01:13.900 They're making one.

02:01:14.780 It looks incredible.

02:01:15.480 They're making one special edition just for America.

02:01:20.080 Yes.

02:01:20.520 The carbon is the carbon.

02:01:22.760 Again, I don't know much about this, but yeah, but they said they were making one just

02:01:25.960 for America and I told him and I said, I know what he makes.

02:01:28.880 He's not going to be able to buy one.

02:01:31.360 Thank you.

02:01:32.560 I mean, you could do something about that.

02:01:34.280 I couldn't, I couldn't, I'd like to, but then you'd be in bed giving money to China. 0.87

02:01:38.260 You know, what, what, you know, what would I be thinking?

02:01:40.560 No, no, not going to do it.

02:01:42.920 He said, you're just not going to get one.

02:01:44.400 That's what they say.

02:01:44.940 I mean, there's a few of them here, but you can't, they won't even sell them to you because

02:01:48.640 of the, of the crazy tariff situation right now.

02:01:52.100 Again, I actually like the tariffs on China.

02:01:54.500 I think there's a much clearer argument for it.

02:01:57.300 Right.

02:01:57.520 I mean, like, you know, when you're talking about, again, a tax is an inefficiency in

02:02:01.660 the market, right?

02:02:02.380 That's what a tariff is a tax and taxes and inefficiency in the market.

02:02:05.220 So you're creating an inefficiency in the market.

02:02:07.460 You have to have a justification for that.

02:02:08.860 What is it?

02:02:09.340 Well, it might be to return manufacturing to the United States.

02:02:12.360 Right.

02:02:12.580 Or it could be, we have a foe in China.

02:02:15.340 We do not want to help them in any way.

02:02:16.900 And I think that's incredibly defensible.

02:02:19.100 So what happens tomorrow at four o'clock?

02:02:21.580 Because four o'clock tomorrow is when he's saying tariffs are coming.

02:02:24.580 And they're saying he didn't do it today because of April Fool's Day.

02:02:28.160 Okay.

02:02:28.460 Hang on.

02:02:28.700 That's actually the reason.

02:02:29.440 That's actually smart.

02:02:30.040 Kind of funny.

02:02:30.560 The guy, he thinks of everything, doesn't he?

02:02:33.700 All right.

02:02:34.340 Hang on.

02:02:34.780 We'll come right back and we'll talk about what happens tomorrow at four o'clock.

02:02:38.580 Simply safe.

02:02:39.300 I want to read what a police officer recently wrote into simply safe.

02:02:42.720 He said, I have worked everything from burglars, home evasions, smash and grabs, assaults to horrific murder cases.

02:02:49.840 No one should be without an alarm system.

02:02:51.900 And simply safe fits the bill perfectly.

02:02:55.220 I can't tell you how much peace of mind I have when I leave my home with my wife there.

02:02:59.900 Traditional security systems usually take action after somebody has broken into the home.

02:03:05.420 That's probably a little too late.

02:03:06.980 But simply safe, state-of-the-art equipment and monitoring plans, they guard live.

02:03:12.820 They guard and protect with their fast protect monitoring before the burglaries even in your home.

02:03:20.140 It could be out on the front lawn and it will talk to a live person will say, hey, dude, what are you doing?

02:03:25.020 What are you doing?

02:03:25.340 Get away from the window.

02:03:26.260 Get away from the window.

02:03:26.980 Police have already been called.

02:03:28.020 I've got your picture.

02:03:29.520 Simply safe doesn't do long-term contracts, so you don't have to worry about that.

02:03:33.080 It's unbelievably easy to set it up yourself, but they'd be happy to do it if you want that as well.

02:03:38.200 And there's a 60-day satisfaction guarantee.

02:03:57.940 You know, the left's got a road map straight off a cliff.

02:04:05.220 Let's take the right trail.

02:04:08.680 Glenn Beck returns shortly.

02:04:10.440 Toronto.

02:04:23.960 There's another great city that starts with a T.

02:04:27.200 Tampa, Florida.

02:04:29.420 Fly to Tampa on Porter Airlines to see why it's so T-rific.

02:04:33.480 On your way there, relax with free beer, wine, and snacks, free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi, and no middle seats.

02:04:40.920 You've never flown to Florida like this before, so you'll land in Tampa ready to explore.

02:04:46.980 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.

02:04:51.620 Tomorrow, Donald Trump is calling this Liberation Day.

02:05:05.760 It's going to be a hard one to sell.

02:05:07.500 If all these things come through and you don't have other countries starting to back up,

02:05:13.160 it could be a very scary few weeks.

02:05:16.640 Maybe.

02:05:17.560 I don't know.

02:05:18.180 Because I don't see him backing off.

02:05:19.400 Tomorrow, 4 p.m. Eastern, he is going to lay out the tariffs.

02:05:25.300 The specifics on the tariffs are uncertain still.

02:05:29.380 He may adopt tomorrow an even more aggressive approach than previously anticipated.

02:05:35.020 Initial discussions suggested tariffs were on 10 to 15 countries,

02:05:41.500 but statements from the White House indicate the measures are going to apply globally,

02:05:46.500 affecting every U.S. trading partner we have.

02:05:49.400 He is expected to implement a 25% tariff on all imported automobiles,

02:05:55.620 trying to get people to move their manufacturing back here.

02:05:59.960 And if that is your goal, that is an effective way.

02:06:03.240 But there's going to be a lot of pain in that goal.

02:06:06.420 I mean, you know, have you even thought of parts?

02:06:08.420 I mean, you have a Honda.

02:06:10.720 Where is that part?

02:06:12.160 Is that part from overseas or is that part made here?

02:06:14.960 Or a Chevy.

02:06:16.140 Yeah, Chevy.

02:06:16.900 Same thing.

02:06:17.380 Even if you have an American car, lots of these parts are made in other countries.

02:06:21.240 And this is just going to get harder and harder.

02:06:23.800 I mean, if there's a tariff on any of these cars that you might have,

02:06:28.840 parts are going to get very expensive.

02:06:32.440 A couple of interesting things about the timing of this.

02:06:34.960 One is they, Donald Trump initially wanted to do it on April 1st,

02:06:39.760 but then was like, I don't really want to make it on April Fool's Day.

02:06:43.120 People might not know if it's real or not.

02:06:44.940 So that's really actually the reported reason why they moved it to April 2nd.

02:06:49.540 The other thing, as you mentioned, 4 p.m. Eastern.

02:06:51.480 Of course, that's when markets close.

02:06:52.940 So they're not going to put them on until after the markets are done for the day.

02:06:58.100 So they can't react in real time to it.

02:07:00.780 That's smart.

02:07:01.240 Hopefully have a little bit of time to kind of think it over.

02:07:03.240 Yeah.

02:07:05.240 It's interesting that he does that at 4 o'clock so the markets are closed.

02:07:09.020 That shows you probably not going to be small tariffs.

02:07:14.140 No.

02:07:14.500 I mean, and if you thought the markets were going to skyrocket because of them,

02:07:17.000 it wouldn't be a consideration to do it at 4 p.m.

02:07:19.580 No.

02:07:20.540 It could be a tough couple of days.

02:07:22.080 Fascinating.

02:07:22.700 Fascinating.

02:07:23.320 Well, we'll see you tomorrow.

02:07:24.900 It's going to be interesting to see how we work all of this out, isn't it?

02:07:27.620 This is Glenn Beck.
