00:00:00.000 Okay, let me tell you about Lear Capital.
00:00:02.520 Let's say that for some reason you know that your life is going to become a living hell, like Stu returns, okay?
00:00:10.720 And you know that's just going to be bad for you, bad for the country, bad for the monetary system, really.
00:00:17.140 What do you do?
00:00:18.080 Protect yourself with gold.
00:00:20.500 You could fire him.
00:00:22.540 That's just such a hassle in paperwork.
00:00:24.920 So get yourself some gold from Lear Capital.
00:00:27.820 I'm telling you, now is the time, gold or silver.
00:00:32.720 Now is the time.
00:00:35.820 Never hope that gold goes up, especially from here.
00:00:40.480 What are we at today?
00:00:42.100 It was $2,400 on Friday.
00:00:46.680 Yeah, right around there.
00:00:47.620 Yeah, you get gold up to $3,000 an ounce, and the world's absolutely on fire.
00:00:54.900 And we're almost there.
00:00:55.840 Go to Lear Capital, 800-889-3070, 800-889-3070.

00:02:13.840 Well, we dodged a bullet.
00:02:15.520 Maybe a really, really big bullet coming out of the sky with a thermonuclear warhead strapped to it.
00:02:21.780 The war in Israel has taken a blessed break.
00:02:27.700 Maybe we can walk away from this with Iran and just buy ourselves some more time.

00:03:44.700 Jason Buttrell joins us now.
00:03:47.040 Jason, welcome to the program.
00:03:48.760 Thank you, thank you.
00:03:49.200 And welcome back, Stu Bregeer.
00:03:51.000 Thanks, you're glad I'm here.
00:03:52.160 Well, that's one of us.
00:03:53.660 So, yesterday, Israel, Iran attacked over the weekend, and it was a significant attack.
00:04:05.480 Yeah.
00:04:06.360 You know that scene in war games where it shows all these missiles heading?
00:04:10.420 That's what it looked like.
00:04:11.820 It was insane.
00:04:12.640 350 missiles.
00:04:14.640 Missiles, drones, all that.
00:04:17.780 It was, yeah.
00:04:18.500 So, significant attack.
00:04:20.720 They're launching the missiles, some of them into space.
00:04:23.300 We have video.
00:04:24.120 Did we get the video in yet?
00:04:25.720 Should.
00:04:26.780 Of the, what do they call this?
00:04:30.080 The Sea Dome?
00:04:31.980 I think this, they have the Iron Dome, and then they have a-
00:04:34.620 Oh, it's the Aero system.
00:04:35.720 Watch this.
00:04:36.300 Watch this.
00:04:37.100 If you're watching the blaze.
00:04:39.380 There.
00:04:40.360 That is-
00:04:41.040 There's fireworks.
00:04:41.620 I feel like, I feel like a million voices were all screaming, and then suddenly silenced.
00:04:48.280 That is a hit in space.
00:04:52.040 Exo-atmospheric.
00:04:54.040 Wow.
00:04:54.660 So, that's the Aero system going up out of the atmosphere into space and hitting a missile
00:05:01.960 as it's starting to come back in.
00:05:04.720 I mean, it's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.
00:05:08.520 And I think this is the first time it was ever captured on film, right?
00:05:11.620 I think it's the first time it's seen.
00:05:12.420 This is the third interception in space, but the other two were last year when the Houthis
00:05:17.560 launched Iranian missiles against Israel.
00:05:20.360 So, just the weapon technology involved this weekend is nuts.
00:05:23.900 99 percent.
00:05:25.900 99 percent of these missiles.
00:05:27.860 We'll tell you what was going on, but the biggest thing you need to know is we could have
00:05:34.280 very easily been in World War III today.
00:05:39.100 I think because of the Aero missile system, which is a joint project between us and Israel,
00:05:45.880 that really, truly saved the day.
00:05:49.340 If these 300 missiles would have struck the ground, it would have been World War.
00:05:54.220 Absolutely World War.
00:05:56.120 Oh.
00:05:56.620 If a quarter of these missiles actually got through.
00:05:59.040 Yeah.
00:05:59.160 We're having a completely different conversation right now.
00:06:01.960 And so you know, there's no such thing as a small nuclear war.
00:06:07.700 If nuclear war.
00:06:10.460 No.
00:06:10.900 No.
00:06:11.220 There isn't.
00:06:12.320 Everybody thinks that, oh, well, we'll have a limited nuclear.
00:06:17.280 No, you don't have that.
00:06:18.820 Bolt out of the blue is how the U.S. Nuclear Command and Control refers to an unwarned large nuclear attack.
00:06:29.240 Um, and they think that it would hit the Pentagon, probably first would be the first strike, would be the Pentagon to disable.
00:06:38.660 And looking into what it would, what it would be like, um, just because of that one, it most likely would be the end of civilization as we know it.
00:06:54.320 The reality of our world in which we live, nuclear war, bad.
00:07:00.240 The day of nuclear Armageddon based on, uh, newly declassified documents, uh, written by, uh, Annie Jacobson.
00:07:09.800 Continue in just a second.
00:07:10.980 First, imagine living in a society that not only allows you to commit murder, but in fact encourages you to do it.
00:07:18.140 Even peer pressures you to do it.
00:07:20.440 We're not describing, uh, movies or anything else.
00:07:23.280 We're describing what happens every day at Planned Parenthood.
00:07:26.580 Preborn is out to change that.
00:07:28.360 Everything that you think of when you think of Planned Parenthood, preborn is the opposite of that.
00:07:33.820 And they offer free ultrasounds in cases where, um, you know, mom comes in and, and says, I, I, I just don't know what to do.
00:07:43.480 I want you to go to preborn.
00:07:45.580 They celebrate 200 miracles every day.
00:07:48.440 $28 a month could be the difference between life and death of a child.
00:07:52.560 When a mom meets her baby on ultrasound, here's the heartbeat.
00:07:55.780 There's a connection that doubles the baby's chance at life.
00:07:59.740 I want you to go to preborn.com slash back.

00:08:13.680 That is what happens with a one megaton bomb.
00:08:18.820 One.
00:08:19.080 That's what we may have avoided this weekend.
00:08:24.760 Thank God.

00:08:48.900 The economy is a mess.
00:08:50.880 We have debt hanging over our heads like crazy.
00:08:54.340 And you don't see anything changing anytime soon.

00:08:57.500 I want you to reach out to American financing because there is a path to freedom from debt.

00:10:08.340 Megan Kelly is coming up in just a few minutes.
00:10:10.460 She's going to talk to us about the Stormy Daniels trial, which is beginning in New York.
00:10:15.160 Gee, I wonder what's going to happen with a New York judge and a New York jury.
00:10:18.180 I just can't stand the suspense.
00:10:22.080 Over the weekend, a miracle happened.
00:10:25.560 I mean, really, honestly, this is a technological miracle.
00:10:31.300 What happened with Iran and Israel.
00:10:36.360 Iran sent 300 missiles and drones over to Israel from Yemen and from, I think, four or five different locations in Iran.
00:10:49.640 And 99% of them were shot out of the sky by Israel.
00:10:55.240 That's incredible technology.
00:10:58.680 It's called the AeroSystem.
00:11:01.300 Please, Jason Buttrell, who joins us, he's our head researcher on the program and also watches over military kind of stuff for us.
00:11:12.360 Please tell us we have the AeroSystem here.
00:11:14.300 I don't think we do.
00:11:16.580 Boeing was like the second half of the development of that.
00:11:19.600 So it's also an American.
00:11:21.080 We have dibs on it.
00:11:22.500 We have our own system, a different system that is kind of pre-deployed on naval ships all over the world.
00:11:28.520 So we do have the same capability.
00:11:30.760 That's the Aegis system.
00:11:32.220 Yeah.
00:11:32.680 Right?
00:11:33.160 That's not shooting things from in space.
00:11:36.400 It is.
00:11:37.740 Is it?
00:11:38.300 I don't remember.
00:11:39.260 There's two parts of it.
00:11:40.020 I don't remember the second part of it.
00:11:41.300 Because the Aegis system on ships is just a buttload of bullets coming out.
00:11:46.900 I mean, it's just round after round of big butt bullets.
00:11:52.200 Yeah.
00:11:52.440 It's called the BLB, buttload of bullets.
00:11:54.720 Yes.
00:11:54.880 That's what we call it, you know, in the military terminology.
00:11:57.560 Right.
00:11:57.580 Sure.
00:11:58.060 Yeah.
00:11:58.560 It was more than just the AeroSystem.
00:12:00.820 So this is what's so amazing.
00:12:02.040 To really get the scope of this, you have to look at this graphic, the IDF, submitted of where all this stuff.
00:12:09.040 All this ordinance was coming from.
00:12:11.720 Yemen, Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, all converging on multiple different fronts, all down on Israel.
00:12:19.280 But they have a three-pronged system.
00:12:21.980 The further one out is the Aero 2 and Aero 3 system.
00:12:25.540 That's the one shooting in space.
00:12:26.940 That's the one that can reach up and touch you in space.
00:12:28.720 The second one is called David Sling.
00:12:30.780 That shoots lower.
00:12:32.920 Yeah, I know.
00:12:33.400 They have such cooler names than ours does.
00:12:35.300 That shoots, like, cruise missiles or, like, missiles that are flying low to the ground.
00:12:39.340 Then you have the Iron Dome, which everyone is talking about.
00:12:42.240 All of those things were firing all at once going on over the weekend.
00:12:45.640 But you also had Israeli planes going up and firing on cruise missiles way the heck out there.
00:12:51.140 Then you had U.S. planes and planes from the U.K.
00:12:54.180 All of this converging in the skies over the Middle East over the weekend.
00:12:57.880 So is it that Iran's missiles suck so much, or is this as amazing as it sounds?
00:13:06.400 It's as amazing as it sounds.
00:13:08.640 So, I mean, cruise, these are current generation weaponry that we're talking about.
00:13:14.060 Iran is exporting some of this weaponry, giving it to Russia so Russia can attack Ukraine.
00:13:19.500 So this is amazing.
00:13:21.740 99%, you know, success rate does not happen.
00:13:25.540 It doesn't.
00:13:27.380 So, I mean, granted, there's, you know, great technology here.
00:13:30.380 But I think there's some God work going on as well.
00:13:33.480 I was going to say, isn't there scriptures when the whole world comes to attack that it is, that God just protects?
00:13:41.140 But it's like a dome over Israel.
00:13:43.940 It was so effective that I think that Iran probably is rethinking some of their first strike strategy against Israel.
00:13:53.020 Now, you know that they've all gamed this out.
00:13:54.620 And I'm sure part of this attack was that that goes into their plans.
00:13:59.460 Like, they know that they want to take out Israel.
00:14:01.900 If they had to, what do they need?
00:14:04.320 Well, they threw everything but the Ayatollah's kitchen sink at Israel over the weekend.
00:14:09.240 I think I was flying.
00:14:10.340 I think I saw that hit the ground.
00:14:11.800 The kitchen sink.
00:14:12.460 The kitchen sink.
00:14:13.200 They probably used that too.
00:14:14.060 Yeah.
00:14:14.520 With the disposal, which is weird.
00:14:16.260 So if you would have had one of these nuclear tipped, it, I mean, so all of that work for a nuclear weapon, you ain't going to deposit it through a missile, right?
00:14:32.060 Wouldn't that be the message that Iran would get?
00:14:34.400 You're not now.
00:14:35.260 Well, yeah, I mean, yeah, that's I don't, this set I ran back, I'm sure, like probably several years as far as whatever their eventual goal is.
00:14:43.780 And that right there is the problem because we know that they're not going to stop.
00:14:48.520 No.
00:14:48.640 So when you're saying, you know, when everyone's like pleading with her, when Biden was pleading with Bibi over the weekend to don't retaliate, on one hand, I'm like, yeah, because I don't want to see the Middle East completely change overnight.
00:15:01.840 And it's not just that.
00:15:03.240 But it's not just that.
00:15:04.080 If they retaliate, Iran has the ability to set Europe and America on fire in the streets.
00:15:12.920 Yeah.
00:15:13.100 And that's only a matter of time before it happens, but I don't know, I'd like to delay it as long as possible.
00:15:19.920 Yeah.
00:15:20.100 But if you're Israel, I mean, you're going, guys, like we've just look at the overall picture here.
00:15:25.760 Right.
00:15:26.000 They're surrounding them.
00:15:27.040 Look at that.
00:15:27.500 Look at that graphic of where all the missiles were coming from.
00:15:29.840 Israel is surrounded.
00:15:31.160 The strategy now, the international community is like, Israel, just keep your walls.
00:15:35.320 Just keep your walls up and you'll be safe.
00:15:37.500 When has that ever worked in military history?
00:15:40.540 Never.
00:15:41.680 Constantinople, Greece.
00:15:43.860 Troy, pick your time.
00:15:45.880 Your walls are an illusion.
00:15:47.360 They will keep you safe for a limited amount of time.
00:15:49.260 But the eventual goal of an invading army is to topple those walls.
00:15:53.980 That's Iran's plan.
00:15:55.660 So how long do you delay?
00:15:58.000 I mean, and if they decide that if Iran says, OK, we're not delaying anymore, that is when the entire region changes forever.
00:16:06.840 They've been playing this little proxy game for 40 years.
00:16:09.740 This is the first time, though, that they have not used a proxy.
00:16:14.880 Exactly.
00:16:15.340 Right?
00:16:15.700 Yep.
00:16:15.980 They're not used.
00:16:16.560 It was a ran.
00:16:18.340 No proxy.
00:16:19.280 It was a ran.
00:16:20.460 Yeah.
00:16:20.640 And so I saw, and honestly, I thank God that we are pausing, at least.
00:16:28.760 You know what I mean?
00:16:29.320 Yeah.
00:16:29.620 Um, because this will escalate into a world war that fast.
00:16:34.880 I just, everything in me says, once the Middle East is set on fire, Russia and Ukraine and everything else, it's just going to be just dominoes.
00:16:46.060 Um, because if the Middle East is on fire and Iran is losing, which they would, uh, they're just setting all of our countries on fire, you know, internally.
00:16:56.460 Um, so I, I'm, I was glad to see the pause.
00:17:00.240 However, I was a little disturbed that the news came out from the White House because that should have come out from the prime minister's office in Israel.
00:17:11.460 But instead, Joe Biden calls Bibi Netanyahu, who apparently the war ministry all voted to retaliate.
00:17:20.760 And then Joe Biden called and said, Hey, uh, we won't support you.
00:17:26.620 Don't, don't do it.
00:17:28.420 Don't retaliate.
00:17:30.040 That's what the White House is saying.
00:17:32.380 And so Bibi changed his mind.
00:17:34.240 Well, uh, gee, thanks for backing me into a corner.
00:17:39.480 I mean, it might be a corner I like to be in, but that's not the way you deal with an ally.
00:17:45.060 Is it?
00:17:45.660 No.
00:17:46.280 Yeah.
00:17:46.600 How they're dealing with this all across the board is not what you're supposed to do.
00:17:50.400 This attack happened.
00:17:51.700 And I a hundred percent believe this.
00:17:53.380 This attack happened because of the Biden administration's overall foreign policy within the Middle East.
00:17:59.500 When you, when you, when you refuse to stand up to their proxy Hamas, when you coddle them as they have things like this happen.
00:18:07.420 When you give billions of dollars back to Iran, when you try to go back into the JCPOA, the nuclear agreement with them, when you are doing everything possible to say, let's play nice.
00:18:19.600 Let's play nice.
00:18:20.100 When you refuse to stand up to a bully, this is the type of crap that happens.
00:18:23.700 And I'm not saying that we go off and militarily attack them.
00:18:27.120 There is a formula for dealing with this.
00:18:29.100 It was actually working.
00:18:30.240 The Abraham Accords was working.
00:18:31.640 When you abandon that, this is the type of crap that happens.
00:18:35.180 But if you could have the possibility of getting Trump back in and quelling all of this, I just, I just want to make it to, you know, January in case he wins.
00:18:47.420 If he doesn't win, it's, I mean, we're just going to keep seeing more and more of this because you're right.
00:18:52.920 It is our policies.
00:18:54.920 We are weak.
00:18:55.700 We don't command any respect.
00:18:58.320 And honestly, we're on the other side.
00:19:00.100 We're giving money to Iran.
00:19:02.440 So our tax dollars went to Iran and to Israel.
00:19:08.880 So you can feel good on April 15th today that you paid for both sides of this.
00:19:14.640 What do you guys make of the really strange way this all unfolded where it was like, hey, drones are going to be there in a few hours.
00:19:22.820 They're all coming.
00:19:23.420 I think that is, that's, that is in war.
00:19:27.620 Correct me if I'm wrong, Jason.
00:19:28.960 You would know more than, than I would.
00:19:31.040 But I think that was the signal from Iran.
00:19:35.920 Hey, we're going to do this.
00:19:38.600 Right.
00:19:38.840 We're going to, because otherwise you surprise.
00:19:41.760 You're like, hey, surprise.
00:19:43.920 But they let Israel.
00:19:45.800 They telegraphed it.
00:19:46.060 Yes.
00:19:46.380 They telegraphed it.
00:19:47.340 Let Israel know, prepare your people for this.
00:19:50.540 And then we're going to stop.
00:19:52.600 And that gives, that gives the Israelis an opportunity to say, okay, well, we stopped you.
00:19:59.760 Now don't do it again.
00:20:01.120 Right.
00:20:01.500 Because then their statement right after was like, hey, by the way, that's the end of this.
00:20:05.180 So you guys know, that's all we're doing.
00:20:07.000 We now feel the matter is settled.
00:20:08.740 Is it concluded?
00:20:09.360 Concluded.
00:20:09.840 Yeah.
00:20:10.000 I mean, so they're trying to say basically, hey, to our people, we did something.
00:20:16.160 And then to Israel, hey, we told you it was coming.
00:20:19.280 You blocked it all.
00:20:20.100 Let's just call this, call it a draw.
00:20:22.420 Now, of course, Israel, of course, gets the win here, right?
00:20:25.260 They wiped out important military officials and people they really wanted to target in Syria.
00:20:31.940 And they stopped the entire attack from Iran.
00:20:35.260 I mean, it's a massive escalation.
00:20:36.720 There's no way of denying that.
00:20:37.780 But like, maybe there's a chance for us to avoid a real inflammation of the entire region.
00:20:44.980 I think we did.
00:20:45.980 You think it's over?
00:20:46.780 You don't think it's over?
00:20:47.700 I mean, Netanyahu's been saying for years.
00:20:49.320 No, no, no, no, it's going to go back to terror.
00:20:50.260 It's going to go back to terror now.
00:20:51.780 The missiles, I think, are over.
00:20:53.100 I mean, Netanyahu has been saying for years he wants to basically go right after Iran directly,
00:20:57.840 believes they're doing all this.
00:20:59.000 He's been wanting this.
00:20:59.840 They are the head of the snake.
00:21:01.580 They are the problem.
00:21:02.420 It's true.
00:21:03.200 It's all up to Israel's response now.
00:21:05.000 Right.
00:21:05.400 And their perspective is completely different from ours.
00:21:07.260 So you don't believe that they are finished?
00:21:11.360 Well.
00:21:11.860 Because, I mean, according to the White House.
00:21:14.340 Yeah.
00:21:14.780 Well.
00:21:15.160 They're done.
00:21:15.720 I think that's what Israel is juggling right now.
00:21:17.880 Because it was heavily telegraphed.
00:21:20.180 They even told, Iran told Turkey that they were going to do this attack.
00:21:23.560 And then Turkey, you know, transmitted that to us.
00:21:25.580 Let me take a quick break and then we're going to come back.
00:21:27.380 Because I want to look at this from the Israeli point of view.
00:21:31.400 I'm glad that they're stopped.
00:21:32.840 But if I'm an Israeli, I'm like, go get them now.
00:21:36.280 They've just blown everything that they have most likely.
00:21:41.760 Let's go get them while they're weak.
00:21:43.920 We could overthrow them.
00:21:45.440 More in just a second.
00:21:46.620 But first, I know why you don't have CarShield.
00:21:50.600 I get it.
00:21:51.100 I do.

00:22:11.100 You don't have any of that stuff.
00:22:12.400 Well, then, what are you waiting for?
00:22:14.560 I don't understand why you don't have CarShield.

00:23:06.060 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:23:26.660 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:23:28.560 We're talking about what happened in Israel over the weekend.
00:23:30.700 99% of the missiles, over 300 of them were lobbed at Israel.
00:23:36.300 I have a friend who lives in Israel, and I said, you know, what is it like?
00:23:41.420 In this, which I'm going to share later on in the program, he said, what's it like?
00:23:47.120 It's exactly how it sounds, except you don't know if you can completely trust the IDF, the brass of the IDF, to actually do it.
00:23:58.260 You know they can, but are they going to protect you?
00:24:01.360 Are they going to do everything they have to?
00:24:03.160 Do you trust the politicians anymore to do what they have to?
00:24:08.260 I don't know how it feels in Israel.
00:24:11.780 The rest of the world is sighing a sigh of relief, but will Benjamin Netanyahu, a guy who was elected because he is a hawk,
00:24:20.260 is he going to just say no more?
00:24:25.160 I don't know how he can.
00:24:27.080 So just look at it from their perspective.
00:24:29.220 They, six months ago, they had the worst terror attack in, I think, in their history, the October 7th attack.
00:24:35.200 That was greenlit by Iran.
00:24:37.280 Hamas is a proxy of Iran being used as a proxy.
00:24:40.860 Hezbollah continues to attack them.
00:24:42.660 They were attacking them right before this attack happened.
00:24:44.540 Some of the missiles came from that direction as well.
00:24:47.160 Again, proxy of Iran.
00:24:49.520 Now, again, six months after that horrific attack, you're getting a conventional attack from mainland Iran.
00:24:56.360 And you can say, yeah, well, we shot down 99% of them.
00:25:00.100 They telegraphed the attack.
00:25:01.760 That's what all the experts are saying today.
00:25:03.740 And they're using that as a sense, you know, a way to de-escalate.
00:25:06.920 And I'm in that camp.
00:25:08.060 I'm like, let's de-escalate.
00:25:09.360 But if you hurt Israel, yes, you did stop that attack.
00:25:13.220 But what if five of those cruise missiles or a couple of those missiles that were intercepted in space came down and hit Tel Aviv?
00:25:23.100 That is a very real possibility.
00:25:24.920 That's what just happened.
00:25:25.860 They just, by the skin of their teeth, they stopped that attack.
00:25:29.640 Now, that also could have been an attack of probing how good their defenses are.
00:25:35.740 What can they, you know, withhold?
00:25:38.720 It cost Israel a billion dollars to stop those missiles.
00:25:44.360 A billion dollars.
00:25:45.700 What did it cost Iran?
00:25:47.580 How many more missiles do they have?
00:25:50.100 What else do they have in their arsenal?
00:25:52.260 Because you could go after them and maybe they don't have enough missiles or anything else to really retaliate.
00:26:02.000 But they will set the rest of the world on fire.
00:26:04.880 Yeah.
00:26:05.000 And think about, too, the situation for Netanyahu, who really does believe Iran is an evil on earth.
00:26:12.320 It is.
00:26:12.860 It is.
00:26:13.380 And he really does believe that.
00:26:15.000 But I'm setting that up because I want to follow it up with he's also had his share of domestic problems.
00:26:20.420 Yes.
00:26:20.720 Politically, they want to throw him in prison, which I know it sounds like a crazy thing.
00:26:25.280 It should never happen in a country when one party trying to throw the other party in prison.
00:26:29.100 It sounds crazy, but I guess it is real.
00:26:31.020 These things happen.
00:26:32.600 And he his foundation of his support that has not wavered behind him have been the Hawks.
00:26:39.280 Yes.
00:26:39.480 And it's like, you know, he has a real motivation to not just let these people down after Iran fires up.
00:26:45.440 What do you say he does?
00:26:46.840 Your prediction.
00:26:48.440 A limited response of some sort.
00:26:50.860 Jason.
00:26:51.620 I think a strike inside Iran does happen.
00:26:55.620 How do we respond?
00:26:56.960 Does it escalate or is it over?
00:26:59.080 Oh, no.
00:26:59.700 I think it will escalate.
00:27:02.140 How far remains to be seen.
00:27:03.840 God help us all.
00:27:04.900 But you didn't answer.
00:27:06.360 I don't have to.
00:27:07.100 I'm the host.
00:27:09.560 Let me talk to you about rough greens.
00:27:12.320 What are you feeding your dog?
00:27:15.160 I think Uno is.
00:27:17.820 There's something wrong with him now.
00:27:19.480 I don't know what it is, but he was behaving very, very weirdly all weekend.
00:27:24.480 He's going to the he's going to the vet today.
00:27:28.300 I hope we don't find out bad news, but we've been feeding.
00:27:32.020 And I think it's given him a longer and happier life because he went downhill really, really fast.
00:27:39.340 And that's not the way, you know, German shepherds really do it.
00:27:43.120 And he hasn't had any real pain until recently.
00:27:47.300 And he was like a puppy.
00:27:49.040 We started feeding him.
00:27:50.180 He was probably eight.
00:27:51.260 We started giving him rough greens and he went back to being like a three year old.
00:27:55.380 It was amazing.
00:27:57.060 Rough greens.
00:27:57.660 Try it with your dog, will you?
00:28:00.000 It's full of all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, everything your dog needs.
00:28:05.680 And Uno went from the pickiest eater to just gobbling this stuff down.
00:28:09.140 Rough greens.

00:28:18.520 Megan Kelly next.
00:28:19.300 It's a new day.
00:28:46.180 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:29:01.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:29:04.420 Hello, America.
00:29:08.180 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:29:09.900 Well, it's another chance.
00:29:11.880 This time they're going to get him.
00:29:14.640 This time they might.
00:29:16.380 Donald Trump is in front of a jury again.
00:29:20.460 They're actually selecting the jury today for his hush money case.
00:29:25.620 We have Megan Kelly to lay it all out and tell us exactly what to expect and what's going on in 60 seconds.
00:29:33.920 First, it started out just as a wild thought one day, just a casual suggestion over dinner and a glass of wine.
00:29:39.800 But then the following weeks and days, you both kept bringing it up.
00:29:43.400 And slowly the thought turned into an idea and that idea turned into a reality.
00:29:48.400 What if we sold the house and moved?
00:29:51.260 Now it's a certainty.
00:29:52.280 What you both want is now to find a great real estate agent to make that happen.
00:29:59.580 I started a company over a decade ago with my brother.
00:30:02.040 It's called Real Estate Agents I Trust because in my career, I've moved a lot.
00:30:07.140 And I got sick and tired of dealing with a hassle and not knowing how to interview and find the right real estate agent.
00:30:14.380 My company will pair you up with agents who will not only work their butts off to help you on both sides of buying and selling,
00:30:21.180 but also who know the people that you can trust to do everything that needs to be done.
00:30:25.980 You want it done?
00:30:27.060 Done right?
00:30:27.680 Done the first time?
00:30:29.740 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:30:30.760 The name says it all.
00:30:31.780 Just go there.

00:30:40.880 It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:30:43.400 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:30:48.840 Megan Kelly, welcome to the program.
00:30:51.100 How are you, Megan?
00:30:51.780 Hi, Glenn.
00:30:52.580 Good to see you.
00:30:53.160 How are you doing?
00:30:53.780 Well, good.
00:30:54.700 I mean, what's going to happen this time?
00:30:57.320 Are they going to get him this time?
00:30:58.840 They're going to get him.
00:31:02.440 And I don't know about you, but I don't know.
00:31:04.620 It's been, you can kind of laugh at it and it's kind of absurd.
00:31:07.580 But now that it's, I mean, the first criminal trial of Donald Trump has just begun.
00:31:12.880 They're in the courtroom.
00:31:14.620 The witnesses will be called eventually after they pick the jury.
00:31:18.780 And they're going to try to put this guy behind bars, potentially.
00:31:22.340 Eventually, they're 100% taking their best shot at stopping him from winning this race.
00:31:30.120 And it really, for me as a lawyer, it's been a very sobering morning.
00:31:34.720 I'm just disgusted.
00:31:36.380 I cannot believe we're doing this.
00:31:40.220 It's like Princess Diana behaving like a street whore.
00:31:46.740 That's what we're doing.
00:31:47.920 The United States of America doesn't do this.
00:31:50.020 And because we're in the hands of this scummy prosecutor, multiple, it's not just Alvin Bragg, but he's the lead on this.
00:31:59.400 We've gone down this road pretending a payment to a porn star who is threatening to expose an affair is a crime that warrants 34 counts.
00:32:13.260 And they're going to make it as sleazy as humanly possible.
00:32:18.580 We're going to hear about David Pecker, who ran the National Enquirer-owned AMI Media, and the catch-and-kill schemes to bury negative stories on Trump and to inflate stories on Hillary.
00:32:30.320 Great.
00:32:30.780 I can't wait to hear about Fusion GPS.
00:32:33.320 Was Trump the only one trying to get dirt printed on his opponent?
00:32:37.000 Because that's what this jury is going to be left with, that he worked with dirty magazines to get Hillary painted as fat and unwell and without talking about how his campaign was spied on.
00:32:50.900 She's been trying to get him impeached or thrown in jail, along with President Obama, for years.
00:32:56.040 Politics is disgusting and dirty and underhanded, and we wish it weren't so.
00:33:01.980 But guess what?
00:33:02.620 It's so.
00:33:03.220 Welcome to America.
00:33:04.860 And never before have we put somebody on trial for antics around it or a man on trial for not screaming from the rooftops.
00:33:14.020 I paid off a porn star so she didn't humiliate me with my wife.
00:33:18.720 We are embarrassing ourselves with this trial.
00:33:22.140 I feel appropriately disgusted.
00:33:24.700 What is the difference between this trial and the trial that didn't happen because I only lied about sex, you know, to save my marriage, to make sure I didn't humiliate my wife?
00:33:38.760 That's basically why Donald Trump perjured himself.
00:33:43.880 Not Donald Trump, but Bill Clinton perjured himself and nothing happened there.
00:33:50.220 Everybody just walked away.
00:33:51.400 What's the difference between these two?
00:33:55.420 One's a Democrat and one's a Republican.
00:33:57.200 Okay, that's what I thought.
00:33:58.500 That's what I thought.
00:33:59.080 Yeah, if you're a Democrat, you can lie.
00:34:00.920 Ask Fannie Willis.
00:34:02.200 Ask Nathan Wade.
00:34:03.420 It's fine.
00:34:03.840 You can lie on the stand-under oath like Bill Clinton did.
00:34:06.720 It's okay.
00:34:08.100 Just an affair.
00:34:10.020 Oh, wait.
00:34:10.840 That's what Trump was doing, too, allegedly.
00:34:13.520 Wait.
00:34:14.440 He was lying to cover up an affair.
00:34:16.560 In only one lane does it become a felony.
00:34:19.680 And just, you know, not to get too deep in the weeds, Glenn, but let's not forget what's really happening here is a misdemeanor bookkeeping snafu or error or misstatement that the statute of limitations had run on.
00:34:33.620 Right.
00:34:34.000 They reinvigorated a dead claim by saying, well, it was made to cover up an underlying felony, which was a campaign finance violation.
00:34:43.420 You made a $130,000 donation, quote-unquote, to your own campaign by paying off Stormy Daniels to win an election.
00:34:50.660 Well, guess what?
00:34:51.920 That's not a campaign finance violation.
00:34:54.180 The only way you get the campaign finance violation is if the payment could only ever have been made for one purpose, and that is to help your campaign.
00:35:02.480 Well, guess what?
00:35:03.300 Again, hush payments have been made by men to shut women up since the dawn of time.
00:35:07.360 It doesn't have to be to save one's campaign, and that is the relevant legal test, which Alvin Bragg should know because it's the reason the feds were not interested in pursuing this claim against Donald Trump.
00:35:19.480 So is it just a corrupt judge that is making all that?
00:35:24.080 Because the judge should have looked at that and said, no, you can't do this.
00:35:29.720 Yeah.
00:35:30.200 Yes.
00:35:30.560 I mean, it's not just because we've got Mr. Bragg.
00:35:34.600 But, yeah, the judge is a serious problem.
00:35:37.140 A nonpartisan judge would have thrown this out on the papers pretty easily.
00:35:41.420 And I do believe there's a very good chance that this will ultimately, no matter what happens with the jury, get thrown out on appeal, like most of the prosecutions against Trump, not the obstruction case.
00:35:53.340 But the J6 case could get thrown out soon, actually, if the Supreme Court throws out the obstruction charges in this other case that's going up involving J6 defendants, not Trump.
00:36:04.080 If the Supreme Court does anything on presidential immunity, and then even if he loses that J6 case, if there's a trial, I think it could get thrown out on appeal.
00:36:12.540 But he has to go through the humiliation.
00:36:15.980 We, we, America, have to go through the humiliation of this criminal trial first.
00:36:23.600 We just saw our former president dragged into a criminal courtroom today.
00:36:30.760 And in typical Trumpian fashion, he said, I'm proud to be here.
00:36:34.480 He said, I'm very proud to be here.
00:36:35.560 Well, that's smart.
00:36:36.360 Trump's smart.
00:36:37.000 He always does a positive spin on anything that happens to him.
00:36:40.500 But let's be honest, this is not a proud moment, not, not for him, not for us, not for his family.
00:36:47.820 I'm ashamed of us for doing this.
00:36:51.300 So what do you say about Donald Trump?
00:36:55.620 This is, you know, something that, you know, we would be disgusted by if it was something that was happening on the other side.
00:37:03.120 Bill Clinton comes to mind.
00:37:08.680 That we as conservatives would say, this guy, he shouldn't be doing this as president.
00:37:15.140 But I, in the Clinton case, it was illegal.
00:37:18.960 He perjured himself.
00:37:20.460 But there, there really isn't anything illegal here.
00:37:23.620 And if there was, it was, it's past the statute of limitations, right?
00:37:28.260 Well, there's such a difference between those two cases.
00:37:31.820 Let me tell you, Glenn, no one is allowed to lie under oath.
00:37:36.820 Correct.
00:37:37.320 It's a felony.
00:37:38.580 It's a felony.
00:37:40.020 It's perjury.
00:37:41.420 And a lawyer really isn't allowed to lie under oath.
00:37:45.960 You have additional duties of candor to a court before they admit you into the bar.
00:37:50.940 You swear not to do things like that.
00:37:53.040 So there are additional obligations on a lawyer, which Clinton was.
00:37:55.960 And on top of that, there are additional obligations as president.
00:38:00.400 He violated them all.
00:38:02.340 He committed a felony.
00:38:04.640 Donald Trump made a bookkeeping misstatement.
00:38:09.040 That's what he did.
00:38:10.860 And for that, he's being hauled into court.
00:38:13.040 There's just no comparison between the legal sins.
00:38:17.780 And look, I don't have any doubt Trump's going to be convicted.
00:38:21.400 And to be honest, I don't have any doubt Trump did this.
00:38:24.260 I don't really doubt that Trump didn't write down the hush money to Stormy Daniels, porn star, who was threatening to go to my wife and the media about an affair.
00:38:36.760 I mean, I probably did do that.
00:38:38.840 Well, there was another one that he paid off.
00:38:41.480 There was another one he paid off that it wasn't true.
00:38:45.240 So, I mean, we don't know.
00:38:47.040 Right.
00:38:47.480 The doorman?
00:38:48.280 Yeah.
00:38:48.500 Well, that's another piece of the AMI media piece of this case, which hasn't gotten as much attention.
00:38:55.320 But it's going to when you hear, I think David Pecker's going to take the stand.
00:38:59.660 The guy who ran AMI owned it.
00:39:01.240 He's going to take the stand and say, yeah, we caught and killed stories, including from this Karen McDougal, who was the 1998 Playmate of the Year, who allegedly had an affair with Trump and also took a payout from AMI to write health columns instead of take the story to a publication that would run with it.
00:39:24.140 This is what the allegation is that if you were a friend of Pecker, like Trump was, you could get this kind of thing done for you.
00:39:33.100 And that's what he was doing for Trump.
00:39:34.760 And we're going to have witness testimony to that effect.
00:39:37.800 And that's OK.
00:39:39.380 Is anyone shocked that Trump didn't want all of his affairs coming out?
00:39:43.020 No.
00:39:43.340 I don't care.
00:39:45.200 I'm sure he has had affairs.
00:39:47.340 I'm sure.
00:39:48.000 You know what?
00:39:48.640 I'm sure Obama did, too.
00:39:50.400 The sainted Obama.
00:39:51.680 And I'm sure Bill Clinton did.
00:39:53.120 And the only reason the Clinton thing became a story is because Linda Tripp decided to tape his lover and go public with the story.
00:40:00.760 It wasn't neither pair of the lovers wanted that public.
00:40:04.260 Linda Tripp brought it public.
00:40:05.800 And then Bill Clinton, rather than being a man and owning up to it, lied under oath.
00:40:09.480 So we're back to that problem.
00:40:11.140 But this is just we shouldn't be knowing about any of this.
00:40:13.920 We shouldn't be humiliating ourselves and getting neck deep into the gory details of it.
00:40:18.240 But the Democrats are going to be awash in in seedy Trump affair details for the next six weeks.
00:40:27.580 And it's anything but accidental.
00:40:31.060 How do you think this plays with the American people?
00:40:35.460 I think they're going to be disgusted like I am.
00:40:37.860 But unfortunately, I think the very group Trump is struggling with, women, former Republicans in the suburbs, like where I live, they're not going to like this, you know, because most of our husbands don't cheat on us with porn stars and playmates of the year.
00:40:58.920 Well, I would hope that it doesn't just, we don't, yeah, we're all cheating, but not necessarily with porn stars and playmates, you know.
00:41:08.820 Well, and there's also only so many playmates of the year.
00:41:11.680 They would be way too busy if everyone was cheating with them.
00:41:13.620 Yeah, way too busy.
00:41:14.540 I mean, I think most husbands don't cheat on their wives.
00:41:18.240 I don't think they do.
00:41:19.660 And so they're not going to like this.
00:41:22.580 You can't forget MAGA, okay?
00:41:24.660 I get, like, those guys who are out in front of the courthouse right now who are amazing, the pro-Trump guys with all their pro-Trump gear, and they're like the anti-Trump guy.
00:41:33.500 Did you see the guy with the flute?
00:41:37.040 He hates Trump.
00:41:38.340 It's like, liar, narcissist, felon, and then he's playing lovely flute, dude, it's like, God bless America.
00:41:45.920 Anyway, the hardcore MAGA, they're not going to care.
00:41:49.060 We all know nothing's going to change their mind.
00:41:51.800 I mean, most Republicans are on Team Trump and realize this is a political persecution.
00:41:55.840 But there is a group of independents now, center-right independents who used to be Republicans who don't like Trump.
00:42:02.840 And it would be very helpful to the Republican Party and Trump if those people could be more disgusted with Biden than with Trump.
00:42:08.880 Right.
00:42:09.420 And they might yet be.
00:42:11.720 But this is not going to help.
00:42:12.980 And I don't mean the conviction.
00:42:14.140 The conviction won't help either.
00:42:15.240 But six weeks of Trump's a sh** husband, that's not going to help.
00:42:20.560 Remember, you're on broadcast.
00:42:25.000 That's all right.
00:42:25.760 That's all right.
00:42:26.780 So, Megan, does he go to jail?
00:42:31.320 You said he's going to be convicted.
00:42:33.360 Does he go to jail?
00:42:34.180 And what would that mean?
00:42:35.380 How much time would he be facing for this?
00:42:38.360 He's not going to jail on this case.
00:42:40.600 He's not.
00:42:41.080 But you have lunatics like Andrew Weissman, who honestly, he's not a, like, this guy's got a very legitimate legal resume.
00:42:49.620 I realize, you know, he left the FBI and all that.
00:42:51.600 But he was general counsel of the FBI.
00:42:54.000 He was a U.S. attorney.
00:42:54.800 And he's out there saying nonsense like, well, Trump's a recidivist.
00:42:59.860 A recidivist is somebody who continues to commit crime after he's served time or been convicted.
00:43:04.660 You know, like, you just can't stop yourself from selling the heroin.
00:43:07.520 That's not Trump.
00:43:09.080 So, it is true that there's the potential for jail time if this judge somehow turns him into a repeat offender because he's facing three other criminal trials.
00:43:20.320 That's not happening.
00:43:21.760 So, I don't think he's going to jail for this one.
00:43:23.840 I think it'll be a matter of fines.
00:43:25.280 But that doesn't change much.
00:43:29.840 I mean, jail time would be far, far worse.
00:43:31.920 But they still have their conviction.
00:43:33.440 And the thing is, guys, half of independents and still one-third of Republicans are saying they like Trump, but they can't vote for a convicted felon.
00:43:46.100 And I was having this discussion with, actually, I think it was with you guys still.
00:43:49.920 You and Dave Marcus were on my show last week.
00:43:53.620 What if they mean it?
00:43:55.820 I know we don't think they mean it.
00:43:58.220 What if they do mean it?
00:43:59.840 What if they, because I even look at this case like, or this case, what if we're wrong?
00:44:05.900 What if we're downplaying this?
00:44:07.340 Like, everybody knows this is BS.
00:44:09.840 But we're wrong.
00:44:11.360 When we misread the polls, and we do often because who the heck knows what to believe on polls anymore,
00:44:17.960 we get burned.
00:44:20.220 And so today really could be day one in Trump losing this election.
00:44:27.820 It could be.
00:44:29.260 I don't think it will be.
00:44:31.260 But I recognize the danger of what they're doing here.
00:44:36.280 And, of course, we all know that's why they're doing it.
00:44:37.860 I was hoping that it was going to backfire on them.
00:44:42.220 I think it has to some degree.
00:44:44.280 I don't know when you add the actual felony, you know, to this.
00:44:49.520 Well, that's the question.
00:44:51.740 Is the backfire bounce already baked in?
00:44:58.060 Right?
00:44:58.500 Like, has he already gotten all the bounce there is to get from the outrage over resetting norms that have been in place for almost 250 years?
00:45:09.160 And that, of course, would be the Democrats' plan to boost him in the primary.
00:45:15.120 He'll get whatever bounce he gets from the backlash.
00:45:18.120 And then it wanes over the course of what they hoped would be four criminal trials.
00:45:24.160 Now it looks like just this one.
00:45:25.980 But this is their best shot.
00:45:27.600 Six weeks.
00:45:29.360 Disgusting man.
00:45:31.200 Horrid husband.
00:45:32.980 And now convicted felon.
00:45:35.980 They don't need to hurt him much.
00:45:37.840 You know, Joe Biden only won by 45,000 votes.
00:45:40.460 I know.
00:45:41.000 They don't need to hurt him much.
00:45:43.120 Megan Kelly, host of The Megan Kelly Show, follows this program on SiriusXM.
00:45:48.760 As always, Megan, good to talk to you.

00:47:01.500 So this isn't good.
00:47:12.200 It's not the way you want to start your day.
00:47:15.240 But hey, at least there's new nuclear war.
00:47:17.480 But then again, it is tax day.
00:47:19.340 I don't know how to balance this one out today.
00:47:21.780 It's a busy day.
00:47:22.660 It's a busy day.
00:47:23.420 Busy day.
00:47:24.000 Busy day.
00:47:24.560 There's a lot going on.
00:47:25.440 Yeah.
00:47:25.640 What do you think of that last point Megan made?
00:47:29.580 That there's a chance that these people who are saying that they may go and vote against Trump just because he was convicted of a felony.
00:47:36.020 There's definitely a percentage, and it's enough to swing the election if it's true.
00:47:39.800 Do you believe them?
00:47:40.920 I tend not to, but there is a chance, right?
00:47:44.240 They're just telling the truth.
00:47:45.200 As soon as they see felonies stamped on him, they're going to go the other way.
00:47:48.380 I could see 3%, 2% of the public feeling that way.
00:47:57.420 Maybe, you know, maybe as much as 5%, maybe as much as 5%.
00:48:02.060 That's huge though, 5%.
00:48:03.200 Yeah, because you're not really paying attention.
00:48:05.280 And there are those that are not paying attention.
00:48:08.000 Now, I can't imagine that you're for Trump and you're not paying attention to what's going on in the world.
00:48:14.880 You know what I mean?
00:48:15.440 Because the only reason why you would be, you know.
00:48:19.180 Every coalition though has tons of people who aren't paying close attention.
00:48:22.860 Every candidate that's ever run has had lots of people who just have vibes, right?
00:48:27.320 Maybe it's their family history.
00:48:28.860 Everyone's been a Republican forever.
00:48:31.120 Maybe it's just their general sense of the situation.
00:48:34.320 I mean, not everyone pays close attention.
00:48:37.220 It is, I mean, that person who's like, I'd probably vote for Trump, but he's a felon.
00:48:42.520 And so I'm not going to vote for him.
00:48:43.660 It doesn't mean necessarily they go to Biden though.
00:48:45.440 They could go to, you know, RFK.
00:48:46.980 They could go to nothing.
00:48:48.200 They might just not vote at all.
00:48:49.880 There's certainly people who will do that.
00:48:51.600 You just don't want to lose them.
00:48:53.400 He can't afford to lose a single person.
00:48:56.480 And I've been talking about this for weeks.
00:48:58.120 Like the election's closer than I think Republicans right now think of it.
00:49:03.380 Yes, I agree.
00:49:03.980 And it's shocking that it is.
00:49:06.240 Yes, I agree.
00:49:07.000 That part of it I agree with.
00:49:08.360 Yeah.
00:49:08.480 But I mean, you talk to, I talk to people all the time that are just like, well, Biden's
00:49:11.580 so bad.
00:49:12.740 Eventually people, people are not going to really vote for him again because he's so bad.
00:49:16.060 And he is that bad.
00:49:17.060 He does deserve to get zero votes.
00:49:19.340 Oh, he's worse than Jimmy Carter.
00:49:21.020 He is.
00:49:21.460 Oh, yeah.
00:49:21.820 Yeah.
00:49:22.520 Legitimately worse than Jimmy Carter.
00:49:24.020 And I don't know.
00:49:24.820 I mean, he hasn't been as successful passing reforms as LBJ, but he's in that category
00:49:29.840 of what he's proposing.
00:49:30.760 And he's overturning our system of government with stuff like the student loan stuff.
00:49:34.500 Yeah.
00:49:34.720 Doesn't even care about it.
00:49:35.680 No.
00:49:36.020 So I agree he should get zero votes.
00:49:38.440 The problem is basically these guys are tied.
00:49:41.720 I mean, you can look at it.
00:49:44.540 We're in the margin of error in almost every measure.
00:49:47.520 It's a terrifying way to look at it.
00:49:49.240 When it comes to personal defense, you have options, but the options are kind of on either
00:50:02.140 side of a wide spectrum.
00:50:03.620 On one end, you got guns and they'll definitely get the job done, but you're going to have

00:50:08.920 Don't pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody.
00:50:11.500 On the other hand, you have things like a knife or a taser or maybe pepper spray or brass
00:50:16.740 knuckles.

00:51:27.740 Yay, it's tax day.
00:51:32.180 I'm so excited.
00:51:33.720 Do you feel charitable?
00:51:34.440 I do feel charitable.
00:51:36.420 I know I'm helping out.
00:51:37.800 For instance, I'm getting people from other countries into our country illegally just by
00:51:43.780 giving my tax dollars to the charitable organization called the United States of America.
00:51:49.660 And they are giving those tax dollars of mine and yours to fly people here illegally.
00:51:56.380 And then set them up, get them, fly them to wherever they want to go, and then set them up.
00:52:02.060 Maybe use some of my town's dollars, my tax dollars for my towns, you know, just to have the town be able to have a little tent city for them.
00:52:11.280 Or maybe just take over like the YMCA so they can have a swimming pool too, wherever they're staying.
00:52:17.720 It's, man, do I feel charitable today.
00:52:20.120 Really feel charitable.
00:52:21.880 Or you really want to feel like you're doing good work.
00:52:25.640 Just think of the millions of dollars that your whole life you'll work, your entire life, and you'll never, you'll probably never, ever even pay, you know.
00:52:38.640 For even one of those programs.
00:52:39.840 One program or, or just one of the giveaways to people who went to college, uh, then went and to get their PhD or their doctorate.
00:52:50.600 And then they decided, ah, I can't pay it.
00:52:53.580 Um, and so you're paying for that.
00:52:55.480 Or they said they can pay it and they're just going to get it paid off anyway.
00:52:57.900 You know, they are totally planning on paying it.
00:52:59.680 Or those people that are now ripping us off in Ukraine.
00:53:03.360 I feel so good about those guys too.
00:53:05.160 Or the F-35, where only 25% of them are actually mission ready, but we paid for them.
00:53:12.840 Yeah.
00:53:13.220 I mean, if you think about that, like you've, every day you will work in your entire life, all the taxes you'll ever pay in your entire life.
00:53:19.920 Don't even add up to the amount of, um, weapons that fired in, at some Russian target and missed in the last month.
00:53:31.140 Just the ones that missed.
00:53:32.520 They didn't even do any damage.
00:53:33.520 It's just, in fact, all the taxes, your children and your grandchildren won't cover that either.
00:53:38.840 Isn't that great?
00:53:39.520 Like, does that make you feel really good about your country and the way it operates?
00:53:43.000 It does.
00:53:43.200 And it's about time people pay their fair share.
00:53:45.820 You know what I mean?
00:53:46.480 Yeah, they won't.
00:53:47.040 Gee, they won't pay their fair share.
00:53:49.320 Uh, gosh, darn it.
00:53:51.300 So those evil rich people, well, not the really rich people, you know, uh, not if you're really, really rich, like the Kennedys or Soros or somebody like that.
00:54:00.460 They're not going to pay their fair share.
00:54:01.780 They already paid it years ago and now they're in a trust fund.
00:54:06.600 So they don't make income per se.
00:54:09.960 So they don't have to pay income tax.
00:54:12.240 But we're going to use those people to try to make everybody hate the rich and then not go after those people.
00:54:19.420 But the people who are just like entrepreneurs, you know, that are just trying to just trying to start a business and, you know, hire people, uh, locally to do things locally.
00:54:30.180 It's I hate those people.
00:54:32.300 Anyway, uh, I don't know if you put up your tree or you have you filed for your extension yet?
00:54:37.420 You're going to be amazed to hear this.
00:54:39.380 And a lot of people have criticized me over the years and say, hey, you never file your taxes on time.
00:54:43.800 And, you know, this year I have to be honest with you.
00:54:47.320 I'm proud to say I filed my extension on time.
00:54:50.260 Wow.
00:54:50.600 That's, that's amazing.
00:54:51.400 First time in a long time.
00:54:52.300 He doesn't pay, he doesn't pay his taxes on April.
00:54:54.660 Never, never.
00:54:55.760 To be, please finish that sentence since we're on national radio.
00:54:58.060 I don't pay my taxes, uh, on April 15th.
00:55:00.540 On April 15th.
00:55:01.280 I pay them by the October 15th deadline.
00:55:03.500 Right.
00:55:03.780 But I do pay my taxes.
00:55:04.800 I want to make sure that's very clear to all our IRS listeners.
00:55:07.920 In fact, I know you well enough to know because you work with me.
00:55:12.340 I overpay on my taxes.
00:55:14.880 You overpay on your taxes.
00:55:16.800 Psychotic about it.
00:55:17.620 Whenever, whenever the, my accountant asks, hey, so this one is like kind of a borderline one.
00:55:22.540 Pay it.
00:55:23.260 Just pay it.
00:55:23.960 I know.
00:55:24.480 Mine's not even borderline.
00:55:26.020 I'm like, they're like, okay, well this one is pretty clear.
00:55:28.980 No, no, nope.
00:55:29.720 If it's not absolutely clear.
00:55:32.020 Right.
00:55:32.260 I don't want anything to do with it.
00:55:33.860 Everybody takes this.
00:55:35.260 I'm not taking it.
00:55:36.300 I'm psychotically defensive about it.
00:55:38.080 And I think, especially as a conservative these days, you have to be.
00:55:41.040 You have to be.
00:55:42.080 You have to be.
00:55:42.800 Well, they didn't, it's not like they spent, you know, what was it?
00:55:45.880 $85 billion on new.
00:55:47.760 Oh, the employees.
00:55:48.480 All the new employees.
00:55:49.720 Yeah.
00:55:49.760 And they're definitely going after George Soros with that.
00:55:52.520 Oh.
00:55:53.140 Definitely going to do that.
00:55:54.560 Oh, yeah.
00:55:55.420 Gosh.
00:55:55.720 Can you imagine all the pressure of these big left-wing donors right now?
00:55:58.560 They're probably shaking in their boots.
00:56:00.180 Right.
00:56:00.440 All these new, all these really rich people with all these questionable taxes.
00:56:04.860 You know, you never know.
00:56:06.000 I'm sure they're coming after you.
00:56:07.020 So now the average American, the average American pays one-fourth of their income in taxes every year.
00:56:14.440 That's 25 cents on every dollar.
00:56:16.560 Gee, I wish that were true.
00:56:19.040 I wish that were true.
00:56:20.380 But that's really not all you pay in taxes.
00:56:22.880 That's just to the federal government.
00:56:24.660 Okay.
00:56:25.180 So when you make money, you're taxed.
00:56:27.680 When you spend money, you're taxed.
00:56:29.840 When you don't spend money, you're taxed.
00:56:32.900 And sometimes you're taxed when you die.
00:56:35.620 I mean, I just love it.
00:56:36.800 I mean, this is really, and the whole thing is, it's actually legal, which is quite a racket if you can get that.
00:56:46.860 So we've put together a list of the five most immoral taxes that you're forced to pay.
00:56:52.360 And that's hard to do because I find all of them immoral.
00:56:55.300 But let's start with one that's not really considered a tax, but it is inflation called the hidden tax.
00:57:05.260 Let's say you have $10,000 sitting in a bank account or, you know, you've got it in your 401k and you're like, we're going to retire one day.
00:57:13.420 Honey, we're already 87 years old.
00:57:16.820 I know, but we're going to retire someday when we can afford it.
00:57:20.960 So you have that $10,000 sitting in the bank, you're saving up for the future, but the government doesn't stop spending money.
00:57:29.480 So the next thing you know, a gallon of milk costs twice as much as it used to.
00:57:35.360 Now that $10,000 in your bank account is worth a lot less.
00:57:40.860 So what does that mean?
00:57:42.300 Because the government can't control its spending, you're being punished for saving your money.
00:57:50.960 And it's legal.
00:57:53.120 Isn't that great?
00:57:54.560 Inflation rose another 3.5% year over year, which means I think the total now is like 18% inflation from when Joe Biden got in.
00:58:05.660 It's 18 or 22% inflation right around there.
00:58:09.580 So that's good.
00:58:12.760 So you're actually paying about 20% in hidden tax.
00:58:18.060 But they don't call it a tax.
00:58:19.820 Because they're absolutely immoral liars.
00:58:24.480 And that moves us on to the fourth most immoral tax, the death tax or the estate tax.
00:58:30.780 I like the estate tax because then I think it's only Bruce Wayne and his cronies that are going to get hit.
00:58:37.600 Who has an estate?
00:58:39.640 So maybe we should call it a death tax because the only reason why you're being taxed is because you died.
00:58:45.820 Now, the only reason this isn't in the top three is that most people don't pay it.
00:58:52.940 In 2024, only estates valued over $13.61 million can be federally taxed.
00:59:00.600 Yeah, but that's going to change.
00:59:02.720 That's going to come down.
00:59:04.020 And it's only the value of the estate over that amount that gets taxed.
00:59:08.880 So your estate is worth less than, you know, 13 point.
00:59:13.240 You can pass that down tax free.
00:59:15.940 Well, kind of.
00:59:18.600 First of all, still doesn't make it right.
00:59:21.820 When was the governor, when was the government given the power to tax the dead?
00:59:27.440 Well, they do have rights.
00:59:28.940 I mean, after all, many of the dead have voted for taxes after their death.
00:59:34.900 So no matter how much money you save up, they're going to get their grubby little fingers on it.
00:59:40.780 Now, coming in at number three is Stu's favorite, income tax.
00:59:48.760 Now, this one is so unconstitutional that they had to amend the Constitution to start doing it.
00:59:56.300 You make money, and then the government takes a portion of that money without telling you up front, using all sorts of complicated rules and regulations.
01:00:05.300 And then you have to file the return to prove that you're not illegal.
01:00:12.860 Now, no person is illegal, except for those who didn't file their income tax.
01:00:17.560 You have to prove you're not illegal when you file that.
01:00:22.220 But if you file it, you know, wrong, well, then the IRS can throw you in jail.
01:00:28.360 But they never do that.
01:00:29.900 It's not like they hired 87,000 IRS agents to go after small businesses and people like you.
01:00:36.160 That's just not happening.
01:00:37.500 Now, I know what you're thinking.
01:00:39.080 The government needs that money to function, that income tax.
01:00:43.240 Well, you know, the government first imposed the first income tax in 1862 to fund the Civil War.
01:00:50.700 So the government functioned for almost 100 years without tapping into your income directly.
01:00:57.100 And then after the war, the tax was repealed.
01:01:02.420 Yeah, until 1913.
01:01:05.040 So apparently they don't need it.
01:01:07.520 No, they don't.
01:01:08.720 So the government doesn't need the income tax to function.
01:01:12.900 But it does make up a big chunk of our federal revenue.
01:01:16.700 Fiscal year 2023, the government brought in $4.4 trillion in income tax revenue.
01:01:23.680 $4.4 trillion.
01:01:25.300 And you're like, wow, that's a lot.
01:01:26.940 That's a lot.
01:01:27.760 Yeah.
01:01:28.320 Half of it actually was from income taxes.
01:01:30.680 So, you know, I don't think they're going to be repealing the 16th Amendment anytime soon,
01:01:35.780 especially since the government spent $6.1 trillion.
01:01:39.940 Now, I'm not an economist.
01:01:45.340 I'm not an accountant.
01:01:48.180 I'm really, really pretty bad at just basic math.
01:01:51.900 But I think 6.1 is more than the 4.4 that the government, quote, makes.
01:01:59.160 And I know if I spend more than I make, eventually I get in trouble.
01:02:07.920 Good thing my income tax is paid for prisons, huh?
01:02:12.120 Number two, most immoral tax, the payroll tax.
01:02:16.080 At first glance, this might seem a lot like the income tax.
01:02:19.440 It's a tax the government quietly takes out of the money that you make every paycheck.
01:02:24.700 But this one is just a bit more sinister.
01:02:27.360 While the income tax funds a whole bunch of government spending, the payroll tax mostly
01:02:33.400 just funds two things, Social Security and Medicare.
01:02:37.460 And the vast majority of it goes to Social Security.
01:02:40.840 So if you're under 50, just relax.
01:02:43.900 You're never going to see that money again.
01:02:46.280 I've just turned 60.
01:02:48.040 I'm never going to see that money.
01:02:49.920 But actually, you would have never seen that money in the first place because payroll taxes
01:02:55.200 that are withheld from your paychecks.
01:02:58.160 In 2024, employees will pay 7.65% of their payroll tax into Medicare and Social Security
01:03:05.500 without really even noticing it.
01:03:08.300 But employers also have to match that tax.
01:03:11.460 So the real payroll tax is 15.3% out of an employee's salary.
01:03:17.300 And if you're self-employed, you get to pay that on your own.
01:03:20.400 So that's wonderful.
01:03:23.180 I mean, I don't know what I could do with 15%.
01:03:25.560 That's almost nothing, you know.
01:03:28.360 And it never gets discussed.
01:03:29.840 Yeah.
01:03:30.220 Like, they'll talk about adjusting the rates occasionally.
01:03:32.460 No.
01:03:32.780 They never talk about the payroll tax.
01:03:34.560 Which, by the way, regressive tax, not a progressive tax, a regressive tax.
01:03:38.300 Yeah.
01:03:38.660 That evil rich people pay a lower percentage than poor people.
01:03:42.360 Right, right, right, right.
01:03:44.340 Smart.
01:03:45.260 Immoral?
01:03:46.060 You bet.
01:03:46.500 Now, most immoral tax, what could it be?
01:03:50.020 I'll tell you in just a minute.
01:03:51.920 First, my cousin Vinny, you know, he wears concrete shoes and sleeps with the fishes these days.
01:03:58.300 And that ain't so good, see?
01:04:00.580 It's real uncomfortable like down there with it.
01:04:03.080 But cousin Vito, on the other hand, he wears a pair of my slippers to bed.
01:04:06.780 He sleeps on geezer dream sheets.
01:04:09.060 Lays his head down on a pillow every night.
01:04:11.800 Sleeps like a baby.
01:04:14.000 What a wise guy.
01:04:15.120 Bada bing, right?
01:04:17.040 Yeah, the left hates and tries to cancel my pillow all the time.
01:04:20.680 It's a shame because they make my night's sleep so much better.
01:04:26.020 You know, I couldn't sleep.

01:05:17.060 Promo code BECK.
01:05:17.780 Hey, so we're looking at some immoral taxes, huh?
01:05:46.120 It's tax days.
01:05:48.720 So the argument for property tax, you know, makes some sense.
01:05:53.620 It's the tax levied by the local governments, not the federal government.
01:05:57.440 It funds things like schools, roads, bridges.
01:06:01.780 Wait a minute.
01:06:03.540 Didn't they just vote in Congress to give teachers more money?
01:06:06.660 And they're always asking for money to build roads.
01:06:09.620 And, hey, don't think about it too deeply, huh?
01:06:13.480 Trade-off is insane because, you know, what most people think is the American dream is actually the New Deal redo of the American dream.
01:06:24.620 The idea of the American dream was being able just to make it, just to live your own life, being left alone, and maybe, you know, owning some property.
01:06:34.180 And then it became two cars and a garage, you know, a chicken and every pot and a house.
01:06:39.520 It's not really.
01:06:40.920 But we, the people, there is something about being a landowner that is very, very American.
01:06:47.640 But if you save up enough money to put a deposit down on a house, thanks to inflation, the house is smaller, the deposit is bigger, but it's yours, you know, once you pay off the mortgage.
01:06:59.860 Not so fast.
01:07:02.120 Skip a few decades ahead.
01:07:03.760 The mortgage is finally done.
01:07:05.580 Now you retire and you're not so big but very expensive inflation house.
01:07:09.800 You still have to pay property tax.
01:07:14.400 And that's for the school that your kids graduated from 20 years ago.
01:07:18.940 And to make matters worse, the tiny house you bought has just been reappraised and inflation never seems to stop.
01:07:27.420 So now it's double what you bought it for.
01:07:30.800 Sure, you could sell it, but it's your house.
01:07:32.780 You want to keep it.
01:07:33.580 In many states, property taxes are, you know, just a percentage of your home's appraised value.
01:07:40.280 So you're now paying double the taxes and you still don't have any kids in that darn school.
01:07:45.760 And the good news is the government's now starting to say, hey, what's it worth right now?
01:07:50.840 I mean, maybe we should tax you on everything you own.
01:07:56.780 It's gone up.
01:07:57.880 So not only will the local community be taking state income tax or property tax, but the federal government's going to do it too.
01:08:09.160 Isn't that great?
01:08:10.540 The whole thing sounds a little immoral, but especially the fact that you don't ever really own your land.
01:08:18.900 The minute you can't pay the tax, they foreclose and take it from you.
01:08:24.280 That seems a little immoral, like I'm not really pursuing my happiness then, am I?
01:08:35.040 Because I own nothing.
01:08:36.160 Oh, but I am happy.

01:10:40.740 Hey, you know what was so great when Congress sold you down the river on Friday?
01:10:50.280 Wasn't that great?
01:10:50.940 I loved that.
01:10:51.820 I loved that.
01:10:52.340 When they were like, hey, we don't want you checking on us if you don't have a warrant.
01:10:58.160 You better have a warrant.
01:10:59.820 Of course, the American people, screw those people.
01:11:03.460 Yeah, they gave that ability to them.
01:11:07.120 You know, so you got to have a warrant.
01:11:09.560 If I'm a member of Congress, where's your warrant?
01:11:12.020 Oh, sir, you're no longer a member of Congress.
01:11:15.260 What?
01:11:15.740 Oh, God, no.
01:11:17.060 So, they're going to try a redo today.
01:11:22.080 And I don't even understand.
01:11:23.760 Don't even.
01:11:24.860 It's a vote no on the motion to recommit.
01:11:29.600 I have no idea how Washington works.
01:11:33.440 Good thing Representative Anna Paulina Luna is there.
01:11:37.420 She's going to explain what is happening and what the odds are that, I don't know, maybe we could have one or two of our Bill of Rights, you know, enforced.
01:11:45.660 Not just for Congress and the special people, but also for us.
01:11:50.660 We go there in 60 seconds.
01:11:53.480 When bad things go down in this world, but what could possibly go wrong?

01:13:13.080 Congresswoman from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna, welcome to the program.
01:13:17.260 How are you?
01:13:18.500 Hey, Glenn.
01:13:19.200 Glad to be back.
01:13:20.100 Good.
01:13:20.360 I'm glad to have you and thank you so much.
01:13:22.460 I saw your letter that came out today.
01:13:25.400 Let me just read just a little bit of it.
01:13:27.260 Last week, we had the opportunity to reform and reauthorize a widely misused and abused system within FISA, Section 702.
01:13:36.100 You go on to talk about how, hey, Congress is now, they're protected, but you left everybody else out.
01:13:44.720 So what's happening today?
01:13:46.480 So basically what we did was we saw that there was this massive orchestrated effort and even from the intelligence community to really get members to vote for this version of FISA, which is completely unconstitutional.
01:14:01.020 We allowed the bill to come to the floor.
01:14:03.340 However, the warrant amendment that Representative Biggs had put forward that would require the federal government to get a warrant if they're going to surveil you, that actually failed by one vote.
01:14:14.320 And so that is something that, one, if you're a member of Congress and you're not supporting that, you need to find a different job.
01:14:20.520 But also, two, we weren't going to go down without a fight.
01:14:23.400 And so I did something that is not commonly done by the governing majority.
01:14:27.800 And I brought forward a motion to reconsider, which means I objected to them passing this out of the House and basically wanted to give everyone a second chance to reconsider their decision.
01:14:39.020 So what's happening today is at 630, we're going to have an opportunity to kill FISA.
01:14:43.240 That means that we're going to be voting on the motion to reconsider.
01:14:47.380 And, of course, members of the intelligence community are going to try to table that.
01:14:50.780 So we're urging all members to vote no on that.
01:14:53.180 And ultimately, that would allow us to bring it back and potentially put forward that amendment and fix it before we send it over to the Senate.
01:15:00.780 How long did you work in Washington before your head stopped hurting on just the, I got to vote no to be able to vote yes, to be able to reconsider, to not table it?
01:15:11.960 I mean, I don't even understand.
01:15:13.720 I don't even understand.
01:15:14.800 So you have to vote.
01:15:17.820 You have to vote which no to the first part?
01:15:23.180 Yeah, we have to vote no on the motion to table the motion to reconsider.
01:15:27.400 Jesus.
01:15:28.440 Ow!
01:15:29.500 So basically, if you want to get involved, I'm just, I'm in my own capacity.
01:15:33.160 I'm urging everyone to call your congressman and ask them to vote to kill FISA, and they'll know what that means.
01:15:38.040 Okay, vote to kill FISA.
01:15:40.520 That's all you have to say.
01:15:42.560 And where are you going to find, because it was 12 to 12, 212 to 212, I think, wasn't it?
01:15:50.040 That was on the amendment for the warrant.
01:15:53.540 So right now, in order for FISA to go down, we just need a simple majority, which means we need 218.
01:15:58.400 We need 218 members to stand together and say we will not go along with the unconstitutional surveillance of Americans.
01:16:05.520 I love this.
01:16:07.040 Thank you for fighting.
01:16:08.740 Sincerely, thank you for fighting.
01:16:10.600 So do you think you have the 218?
01:16:14.600 You know, I honestly don't know.
01:16:16.460 I don't want to sit here and give everyone false hope, but I did find a way to be able to get this letter to the Democrats over the weekend.
01:16:23.900 You know, they silo it so that we can't openly communicate some of these dear colleague letters.
01:16:28.040 And so I was able to reach out to some people.
01:16:30.140 So I think that you will see a change in that number.
01:16:32.920 But again, this is a simple majority.
01:16:34.280 So if we get the 218, we can kill it.
01:16:36.860 We can reform it and send it over before FISA lapses.
01:16:39.720 But I just want to remind people that, you know, for any member of Congress saying that this wasn't violated, that's a lie.
01:16:45.100 You know, the FISA court found that the federal government actually violated it over 278,000 times.
01:16:51.260 And this didn't just stop at members of Congress, journalists and political commentators.
01:16:54.820 I mean, it went into over 19,000 donors of congressional campaigns.
01:16:57.920 And even for some of the more progressive members of Congress.
01:17:01.540 I mean, we're talking about, you know, some of their protesters that had their civil liberties violated as well.
01:17:06.960 So I pointed that all out in the letter.
01:17:08.840 Wow.
01:17:09.120 So but it was only 200 and how many, how many thousand?
01:17:13.040 78,000 times.
01:17:14.400 Right.
01:17:14.780 So it's only it's only that.
01:17:16.000 Let me read this part.
01:17:16.740 The FISA court has documented many of these abuses.
01:17:19.440 According to FISA court, the federal government used Section 702 for searches for 141 racial justice protesters and political activist groups that organized protest searches based on witness report that two men of Middle Eastern descent were loading cleaning supplies into a truck searches for a state court judge who reported civil rights violations to the FBI.
01:17:43.020 The FBI conducted batch searches that included current and former federal government officials, journalists, political commentators.
01:17:52.240 Am I on that list?
01:17:53.680 And 19,000 donors to congressional campaign.
01:17:58.120 The FBI conducted a search on a member of Congress and a U.S. senator.
01:18:02.640 That's that's not good.
01:18:04.380 It's not good.
01:18:05.860 It's not good at all.
01:18:07.120 And we do have the opportunity to stop it.
01:18:09.300 We don't just have to accept what they're trying to shove down our throats.
01:18:12.740 But I will say that, you know, this, no matter what, will will end in two years and we have the opportunity to reform it then.
01:18:20.140 But I just I think it's really, really awful that people would throw the Fourth Amendment out, you know, out like that in the name of protecting America.
01:18:28.900 They take away your freedom.
01:18:30.820 Yeah.
01:18:31.100 I mean, isn't the amendment thing about what Congress cannot ever do?
01:18:37.000 I thought that was the whole point of that amendment process.
01:18:41.780 But maybe it's maybe it's me.
01:18:44.000 I mean, when they wanted to levy income tax, they had to vote for an amendment.
01:18:50.180 Why why why aren't they going for an amendment on this other than they know it will never work?
01:18:55.540 Why aren't they forced to go that way?
01:18:58.180 You know, Glenn, I've I've really had some kind of deep thought on the floor watching the board, because if I could just explain for a moment what happened, we saw members that, you know, the I'm going to call them the Intel bros had lined up that would.
01:19:12.900 If we were winning by a vote, they would have someone else go down and flip their vote.
01:19:16.240 And I watched members do this.
01:19:18.100 I watched them do this.
01:19:19.220 I had Senator Mike Lee standing next to me and we were seeing members flip their votes in order to intentionally kill it.
01:19:25.400 And when they had one more, you know, that would would join us, they would, again, have someone go and change their vote.
01:19:30.680 So the fact is, is that there is this unicarty that exists in Washington.
01:19:35.220 And I will say that there were Democrats that were actually standing with us on this.
01:19:39.460 And they even told us, you know, behind closed doors that, you know, there is that block that will ensure that the agenda, whatever it is, will pass no matter what.
01:19:48.360 And so when we're seeing this happening, when you're seeing how the control mechanism works and how it's in place, I just all I'm going to say is in my own capacity is it's so incredibly important that people are getting involved for this next election because there's a lot on the line.
01:20:01.420 And I think that, you know, we are seeing a massive identity crisis and change in the Republican Party, but it's for the better.
01:20:08.840 And this is just part of the growing pains.
01:20:10.300 But this can't continue.
01:20:12.120 Yeah, this is different than the Tea Party was.
01:20:14.900 This is this time it's real.
01:20:17.520 It's the people that are there like you are are actually committed to this.
01:20:22.920 And it's not just a populist thing.
01:20:24.980 It is an actual constitutional backing.
01:20:28.360 So I appreciate it.
01:20:29.780 And I thank you so much.
01:20:31.220 You bet.
01:20:31.920 Bye bye.
01:20:32.640 Please call your congressman today and tell them.
01:20:36.800 To vote no on FISA.
01:20:39.420 I was trying to yes on the recommit.
01:20:42.960 No on the.
01:20:43.720 I don't know.
01:20:44.900 Just no on FISA.
01:20:46.560 No on FISA.
01:20:47.760 Have you watched the octopus murders yet?
01:20:50.520 I have not heard about the octopus murders until today.
01:20:53.480 All these octopus.
01:20:54.440 They were all really.
01:20:56.100 Yeah.
01:20:56.620 All killed.
01:20:57.040 No, it is something on Netflix.
01:21:01.600 You have to watch it.
01:21:03.280 We're doing a podcast either this week or next week with the journalist and the documentarian that that are featured in this movie.
01:21:15.500 This documentary.
01:21:16.540 It's I think four or five episodes.
01:21:18.860 It's on Netflix.
01:21:19.640 It is terrifying, Stu.
01:21:23.120 Terrifying.
01:21:23.600 You first watch the first episode and you're like, I don't know.
01:21:27.760 I mean, it kind of sounds, you know, by the time you hit the third episode, you're like, oh, my gosh, dear God, this is what's happening right now.
01:21:36.080 So are you done with this series yet?
01:21:37.740 No, I've got one more episode, I think, left.
01:21:39.900 Do you have to watch the whole thing before you go through the sort of fact checking process.
01:21:45.500 Do you do this after every documentary that you watch?
01:21:47.960 I always do.
01:21:48.860 Yes.
01:21:49.360 After I watch it, I'm always concerned it's some like effort to make me think something.
01:21:54.020 So then I have to go read a bunch of stories about it.
01:21:55.860 But you can't do it beforehand because then it could wreck you spoiler.
01:21:59.500 So here's what here's what I do.
01:22:01.240 I this this time on this one.
01:22:03.900 Yeah.
01:22:04.300 All my fact checkers were the ones that saw it first and went, oh, we just fact check this.
01:22:09.940 You need to watch this.
01:22:12.120 And so that's why we're doing it.
01:22:13.940 We're doing a special on it coming soon.
01:22:17.280 And it is it's remarkable.
01:22:19.460 And it it happened during the Reagan and George H.W. Bush era.
01:22:26.660 I think it's I don't know because I'm not at the end, but I think it's still kind of going on.
01:22:30.960 And it's everything.
01:22:32.400 It's deep state.
01:22:33.660 It's deep state.
01:22:34.760 And how they how they get around things, how they are in bed with the drug cartels and and shipping of arms and everything else under the table.
01:22:48.140 It's remarkable, remarkable.
01:22:52.740 One guy, several.
01:22:54.000 Well, several people have died.
01:22:55.260 The one guy who started and did most of the journalistic stuff died, was killed.
01:23:02.540 He committed suicide, but he cut his wrists, each one, I think, like six times.
01:23:09.640 But he was they were cut so deeply that the tendons were cut.
01:23:14.340 So how did he cut the other?
01:23:17.240 How did he cut the other wrist?
01:23:19.760 Well, his mouth.
01:23:20.680 Yeah.
01:23:20.940 He held the knife in his mouth.
01:23:22.260 Yeah.
01:23:22.780 Then he went for the mouth.
01:23:23.620 And then there's bloody handprints like there was a struggle all over the bathroom.
01:23:28.500 Uh, but, uh, no, they, they, they investigated that quickly.
01:23:32.660 They shut that down quick.
01:23:34.000 Nope.
01:23:34.320 Suicide.
01:23:35.340 Wait, but the blood suicide.
01:23:37.560 But I mean, there's blood suicide.
01:23:40.120 You look a little depressed right now.
01:23:42.280 Are you?
01:23:43.240 You seem a little skeptical, uh, Glenn, of their analysis of that crime scene.
01:23:47.960 A little bit.
01:23:48.620 A little bit.
01:23:49.400 You need to watch that.
01:23:50.600 Yeah.
01:23:50.860 It sounds interesting.
01:23:51.720 Yeah.
01:23:53.080 Cause, uh, when you understand, you know, when, when you remember when Donald Trump said,
01:24:00.000 yeah, well, we've done bad things too.
01:24:01.300 And you're like, well, now hold on here.
01:24:03.700 Mm hmm.
01:24:04.700 Um, I'm not so sure I want to hold on anymore.
01:24:11.540 I mean, it's all of this stuff.
01:24:14.840 It, you know what it is?
01:24:16.000 It's the NSA, the, uh, the NSC, uh, the CIA, all of them.
01:24:22.580 They've just gone so dark.
01:24:25.640 We are in the golden era of, of, uh, documentaries as well.
01:24:30.140 We are.
01:24:30.520 We are in that period where like, there is just, there are, if all you watch was documentaries
01:24:34.880 all the time, you still couldn't get to the end of, of the list that you might have.
01:24:38.880 There's so many out on interesting topics too.
01:24:42.640 We, I think we've gotten to that point now where some of them aren't even good.
01:24:45.800 Like they're just churning out stuff because they want documentaries.
01:24:49.000 But I mean, who would have thought that documentary films would be this like massive industry?
01:24:54.820 I mean, it was forever.
01:24:56.140 There was none that got into theaters.
01:24:58.140 It was.
01:24:58.380 No, but I think that's because nobody wants to go.
01:25:00.660 You want to go on a Friday night to a theater to see a documentary?
01:25:04.340 No.
01:25:04.880 Yeah.
01:25:05.220 But you do want to watch it at home on a Friday night.
01:25:07.040 You want to watch, you want to watch it at home.
01:25:08.980 You, um, you know, I think the documentaries that television made, by the way, I've been
01:25:14.780 watching Monk just to clear my head.
01:25:16.960 Monk, the old series?
01:25:18.260 Yeah.
01:25:18.420 The old series.
01:25:19.560 I'm at the age now.
01:25:21.260 I'm at the age now.
01:25:22.340 I have to, my father used to watch Matlock.
01:25:24.680 I guess it's my age now to watch Monk.
01:25:26.900 I don't know.
01:25:27.580 Did they assign this to you?
01:25:28.840 Did Netflix make you watch it?
01:25:30.380 Made me watch it.
01:25:31.060 No, you know, I'm watching mindless stuff just so I can just clear my mind.
01:25:37.580 So I'll watch an episode of Monk and I'll be like, okay, I'm fine.
01:25:41.720 You know, I'm fine.
01:25:42.880 I'm mindless.
01:25:44.440 I'm not thinking about anything.
01:25:46.280 Right.
01:25:46.580 Except maybe how bad that show is.
01:25:49.440 Um, but, uh.
01:25:50.800 I thought it was a well-regarded series.
01:25:53.760 Series, no?
01:25:54.620 Might be.
01:25:55.420 Might be.
01:25:56.060 Not by me.
01:25:56.720 Not by you.
01:25:57.140 You don't like it, but you're watching it.
01:25:59.040 I'm watching it.
01:25:59.760 I mean, I don't, I, I don't, do I have to go into my analysis of Monk?
01:26:05.020 Because I don't think, I think I might be the only person.
01:26:08.100 You brought it up.
01:26:09.120 I didn't bring up Monk.
01:26:10.180 You brought up Monk.
01:26:10.840 And I don't even know why I brought Monk up now.
01:26:12.960 Oh, because I'm watching Monk and I'm realizing, wow, commercial television was really bad.
01:26:19.760 Really?
01:26:20.260 Okay.
01:26:21.620 Really bad.
01:26:23.380 Uh, because this, I think this was kind of a, an acclaimed show back in the 90s.
01:26:29.280 Wow.
01:26:30.220 Not good.
01:26:30.820 Not good.
01:26:31.600 But you continue to watch it.
01:26:32.900 Right.
01:26:33.480 There's a lot of episodes of it, if I remember right.
01:26:35.200 Yeah, but I mean, it, it makes me not think of nuclear war.
01:26:39.160 You know what I mean?
01:26:39.860 That's interesting.
01:26:40.520 There are a lot of shows available.
01:26:43.780 There's a lot of television to watch that's good.
01:26:46.000 I know, but it's good, but it's also pretty dark.
01:26:48.480 All the stuff is pretty dark.
01:26:50.260 Yeah.
01:26:50.440 This is, you got to go back to the 90s where it was really mindless.
01:26:54.400 Where you're like, oh, look, somebody murdered somebody.
01:26:57.620 Don't worry.
01:26:58.160 They're going to catch them in 45 minutes.
01:27:00.500 You know what I mean?
01:27:01.280 I mean, you said it was really dark and then you referred to wanting to watch murder stories.
01:27:06.860 Yeah, but they're happy murder stories.
01:27:08.920 You know what I mean?
01:27:09.380 Not for the person who was murdered.
01:27:11.140 No, but there's a whole cast of characters in there that are kind of silly and goofy.
01:27:15.400 Yeah.
01:27:15.640 You know, you're like, oh, what's the captain going to do this time?
01:27:21.820 So anyway, but I think we were watching documentaries.
01:27:25.660 They were just like on the History Channel and they weren't making good documentaries.
01:27:30.660 They were making the same thing.
01:27:32.160 In World War II, the Germans, you're like, okay, I've seen this a million times, but that's what they were doing.
01:27:38.540 Hang on just a second.
01:27:39.380 So you're right, golden era, because everything has become better.
01:27:45.520 All right, let me talk to you about Lear Capital.
01:27:48.060 The Biden administration, they're running the American economy and for them, it's like shooting fish in a barrel, except you're the fish.
01:27:57.720 I'm the fish.
01:27:58.900 Stu's the fish.
01:28:00.180 The American dollar is the barrel and it's being shot full of holes.
01:28:04.360 So it's going on.
01:28:05.920 It's good.
01:28:06.840 You know, it is.
01:28:07.260 They're engaged in ongoing war between bad foreign policy and bad domestic policy to see which one brings us down first.
01:28:15.400 May I suggest you have a firewall?
01:28:19.120 You get gold or silver.
01:28:20.960 I want you to call and find out about their wealth protection guide.
01:28:24.620 It's just information that you should read.
01:28:26.600 I'm a guy who always says, don't trust me.
01:28:29.600 Do your own homework.
01:28:30.960 I know that's not real popular in the administration now.
01:28:33.640 And for those with disinformation fears, I think you're smart enough to do that.
01:28:38.860 So do your own homework.
01:28:40.280 You can see what's coming our way.
01:28:42.120 It's not good.
01:28:43.480 Get your free wealth protection guide.
01:28:45.560 And Lear will credit your account $250 towards your purchase of gold or silver.
01:28:51.200 Do it today.
01:28:52.400 800-957-GOLD.
01:28:54.240 That's 800-957-GOLD.
01:28:57.480 800-957-GOLD.
01:28:58.980 Do it now.
01:28:59.640 10 seconds.
01:29:00.180 Station ID.
01:29:00.640 So I got a note from my producer of Studios America the other day.
01:29:14.120 It was Friday night.
01:29:15.380 He's like, oh, you got to check out this movie.
01:29:17.260 It's on, I think it was Hulu or Prime.
01:29:20.360 I don't know.
01:29:20.620 One of those services.
01:29:21.780 He's like, it's really good.
01:29:22.980 You got to check it out.
01:29:23.500 I'm like, all right.
01:29:24.100 I don't normally get recommendations from him.
01:29:28.060 And it's called Zone of Interest.
01:29:30.880 Hear this?
01:29:32.060 I click on it and I start watching it.
01:29:34.640 It is the story of the guy who ran Auschwitz.
01:29:41.140 That's a good Friday night.
01:29:42.320 Right.
01:29:42.940 Hey, honey.
01:29:44.000 Right.
01:29:44.480 He ran Auschwitz.
01:29:46.020 And it's the story of him and his family who built a nice little home on the house.
01:29:51.060 On the wall.
01:29:52.460 No, no, no.
01:29:53.240 Behind the wall.
01:29:53.540 Right behind the crematorium.
01:29:56.940 Yeah.
01:29:57.100 So it, it's like this, the whole movie is basically this sort of like boring family drama
01:30:04.380 about like where they're going to move and who's going to, is their mom going to come
01:30:08.100 live with them?
01:30:08.900 In the background, you just see smokestacks and like they're swimming in the river and
01:30:14.480 just ashes come by.
01:30:16.340 Yeah.
01:30:16.360 It's like it snows in their backyard.
01:30:18.600 It's horrible.
01:30:19.520 And like, that's a really horrible story.
01:30:21.400 I'm also quite concerned why it was a movie recommendation for me on a Friday night.
01:30:27.580 Why did I, well, I was like the target.
01:30:29.800 And it didn't come from me.
01:30:31.080 It didn't even come from you.
01:30:32.160 Wow.
01:30:32.560 By the way, of course, it's entirely in German.
01:30:35.100 So a subtitled Holocaust drama.
01:30:38.500 Yeah.
01:30:39.460 Oh, that's a Friday night.
01:30:40.480 For a Friday night entertainment.
01:30:41.020 No, that's a Friday night.
01:30:42.080 That's one you'll never forget.
01:30:43.640 What do people think of me?
01:30:46.000 Whatever it is, it's, it was actually interesting.
01:30:48.340 I tell you, I don't think I'd even watch that documentary.
01:30:51.120 And I've been to Auschwitz.
01:30:52.240 I saw that.
01:30:53.140 I know that story.
01:30:54.360 Oh, yeah.
01:30:54.780 It's incredible.
01:30:55.140 Oh, my gosh.
01:30:56.280 The kids, they would be working, the Jews would be working in the gardens and the kids
01:31:01.440 would be like, you're a dirty Jew.
01:31:03.200 And you're like, oh, what a happy little family right here.
01:31:06.240 It was weird.
01:31:07.260 Oh, you watched the whole thing.
01:31:08.620 Yeah.
01:31:09.000 Yeah, of course I did.
01:31:10.260 On Friday night.
01:31:11.420 Yeah.
01:31:13.520 What do they think of me?
01:31:14.980 Well, they got you right, I think.
01:31:16.500 Glenn Beck.
01:31:19.680 Imagine pizza without any toppings.
01:31:22.520 Imagine a big heaping handful of mashed potatoes.
01:31:26.680 No gravy.
01:31:27.760 Imagine an ice cream cone without ice cream.
01:31:31.100 It's depressing, right?
01:31:32.560 Now imagine your dog's food without any nutrition.
01:31:36.100 I'm glad we got off the ice cream part, but this isn't getting any better.
01:31:40.820 Unfortunately, if you're feeding your dog anything other than kibble food, it's pretty
01:31:45.460 much what they're getting every time you fill the bowl.
01:31:47.300 They're not getting any real nutrition.
01:31:50.040 Everything that is living has been cooked out of it and to have a long shelf life.
01:31:54.420 It can sit on the shelf for up to two years and not go bad.
01:31:57.180 That's saying something.
01:31:58.640 So what you do is you take your kibble food and you put some rough greens on top.
01:32:03.700 Now, this is an all-natural supplement that was developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
01:32:09.240 You sprinkle it on the dog food and it has all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, everything
01:32:14.800 your dog needs.
01:32:16.320 Rough greens.

01:32:36.360 Promo code is Glenn.
01:32:37.620 I have a friend in Israel who answered the question, what was that like?
01:33:00.080 He said, what was it like to have Iran launch drones and cruise missiles at you by the hundreds?
01:33:05.880 It's like it sounds.
01:33:07.220 Exactly like it sounds.
01:33:09.200 It's going to sleep after checking the news at the end of Shabbat, finding out we're on
01:33:12.840 high alert.
01:33:13.780 Public gatherings are canceled.
01:33:15.560 They don't know what's coming or when.
01:33:17.740 But something's coming and something's coming soon.
01:33:20.560 It's waking up around midnight to the news that they're on their way.
01:33:23.660 They'll be here in a few hours.
01:33:25.140 It's waking up again and a couple hours later to the sound of the air raid sirens.
01:33:28.840 They're here.
01:33:30.140 Running for the shelter.
01:33:31.320 Gathering up the kids along the way.
01:33:32.900 Praying the steel shutter and blast door close smoothly and you don't get stuck on some piece
01:33:38.080 of dirt or some dropped toy that you can't see in the dark.
01:33:42.460 They close.
01:33:43.560 Small sigh of relief.
01:33:45.020 It's wondering the whole time how long.
01:33:46.920 Because, you know, you have 60 seconds from the time the alarm sounds.
01:33:50.860 If it's the usual dumb missiles coming from Gaza.
01:33:53.800 But this is a different weapon.
01:33:55.460 Coming from other directions?
01:33:56.620 How many, how did the army set the warnings to go off?
01:34:00.960 Do we have the same 60 seconds?
01:34:02.640 More?
01:34:03.300 Less?
01:34:04.240 It's then hearing the detonations over your head and thinking those sound like interceptions.
01:34:09.240 Uh, uh, you think, maybe, rather than impacts.
01:34:16.580 You think, you hope, it's waiting with your scared children.
01:34:20.040 Going through your phone for updates that aren't coming in yet.
01:34:23.200 And raw data that hasn't been sorted into a picture that makes sense.
01:34:27.420 Trying to figure out how bad and if you should be doing something more.
01:34:31.580 Failing to find it.
01:34:32.680 It's waiting the standard 10 minutes and wondering again, because this isn't the usual thing.
01:34:38.420 Are those 10 minutes, does that still apply?
01:34:41.020 More or less?
01:34:43.040 But you can't hear any more explosions, so you think it's probably safe to get out now.
01:34:47.060 As safe as it gets.
01:34:48.840 And it's knowing you better get some sleep because tomorrow might be a long day and you'll need to spend time in the vicinity of a shelter.
01:34:55.800 And the kids are stuck at home.
01:34:57.320 And who knows if this is it for tonight.
01:35:01.100 Maybe there'll be more in the morning.
01:35:03.340 Who knows how the week develops.
01:35:05.440 It's knowing the IDF is up to the job, but also being sure, not being sure you can rely on the top brass.
01:35:12.580 It's being completely certain you can't actually trust the civilian leadership charged with making the decisions.
01:35:19.840 It's praying that God will protect his people.
01:35:22.740 It's reading the news and finding out the IDF had some help.
01:35:26.300 That's good, you think.
01:35:28.060 In that it means the West has not completely lost its compass.
01:35:31.600 Yes, yet.
01:35:33.100 Or at least not to the point where they'll let something like this go through unchallenged.
01:35:37.240 If only because the world has real interest in the region, not going completely up in flames.
01:35:43.940 At least you hope.
01:35:44.680 It's unending astonishment at the continued blame that falls from the West and all unhindered by any interception on your country and its leadership.
01:35:55.840 For having brought all of this around, as if Bibi is responsible for this whole mess.
01:36:02.120 It's the Jews, don't you know?
01:36:04.040 We wouldn't have all these problems with the Jews if it weren't for all these Jews.
01:36:07.840 But as Mr. Gutierrez of the UN is so fond of saying, these things did not happen in a vacuum.
01:36:15.200 The fine examples of homo allegedly sapiens Israel has been eliminating, whether in Gaza, Lebanon, or Syria, were not just there playing tourist.
01:36:26.540 They were not hardworking small business owners, dedicated teachers, or promising students.
01:36:32.500 They were all there doing one thing, preparing to kill as many Jews as possible.
01:36:38.080 Some actually went through with it.
01:36:39.880 Some absolutely would have, if not for a well-placed drone.
01:36:43.920 But, goes the trope, they must not be touched.
01:36:47.080 Certainly, not as long as they don't actually harm anyone.
01:36:50.580 Because, see, it might make them mad.
01:36:53.620 These people who are planning murder with everything they are, they might come and harm someone.
01:36:59.100 Mr. Obama has been saying this kind of thing, as has Mr. Biden, Ms. Harris, Mr. Macron, and the list goes on and on.
01:37:06.500 It never seems to end anymore.
01:37:08.580 Don't make them mad.
01:37:10.080 The people who are planning to kill you, don't make them mad.
01:37:13.080 They might then do something violent.
01:37:15.340 Excuse me?
01:37:16.940 Yes, yes, your neighbor who's building weapons to burn your children with.
01:37:20.740 Don't make them mad.
01:37:21.920 And certainly don't try to remove the threat.
01:37:24.400 They might do something that we all regret.
01:37:26.920 You might get hurt.
01:37:28.300 Yeah, we know.
01:37:29.180 We know.
01:37:30.560 But if you go after that psychopathic demon planning to hurt you, you'll get hurt.
01:37:35.660 Wait, what?
01:37:38.300 Well, it gets messier than the world really wants it to.
01:37:41.820 That's the rub, you see.
01:37:42.860 The world doesn't necessarily care if the Jews get killed.
01:37:46.920 Jews have been busy getting slaughtered this whole time,
01:37:49.600 including on the sacrosanct Ramadan holiday,
01:37:53.460 during which terror attacks happened on average of twice a week.
01:37:57.620 But Israel was supposed to be suspending offensive operations because,
01:38:03.000 you know, the terrorists might get mad.
01:38:05.880 Just yesterday, a 14-year-old shepherd's body was found.
01:38:10.260 He'd been murdered by terrorists, and the details are still unknown, mercifully.
01:38:14.480 For the crime of being a Jew in his own land.
01:38:19.040 For the record, no burning down Palestinian villages was almost certainly not the right response.
01:38:25.240 See the Bubba effect.
01:38:26.300 But all that is acceptable because, well, it's just a few Jews.
01:38:32.440 And anyway, their presence in Judea and Samaria is both temporary and illegitimate to begin with, right?
01:38:39.660 Yes, several nations helped the IDF down Iran's weapons en route last night.
01:38:45.900 Israel is grateful.
01:38:47.200 The few in Israel think they did so for the love of Jews.
01:38:53.160 They just don't want the world to be too impacted.
01:38:56.840 They don't want the monsters to get too mad.
01:38:59.940 Maybe because there's evidence that they have such monsters right there under their own beds.
01:39:06.560 So what's it like?
01:39:08.840 Well, Glenn, it's praying God will protect your children.
01:39:13.520 That's what it's like.
01:39:14.700 This was a miracle that happened.
01:39:20.160 99% of everything that was launched at them was taken out.
01:39:25.440 That is a miracle.
01:39:27.040 It's also a miracle that Israel hasn't responded.
01:39:32.860 However, the war cabinet had a very heated debate.
01:39:39.840 So far, no plans going forward, but I don't know.
01:39:45.280 If this were us, if Canada had launched 300 missiles that we shot out of space,
01:39:54.800 and even if a couple of them had landed, but we shot all of them,
01:39:58.680 do you really think the American people would be cool with a president who was like,
01:40:03.080 you know what?
01:40:03.980 It's just Canada.
01:40:05.180 We got them all.
01:40:06.100 We got all of them.
01:40:06.940 And they're fine.
01:40:08.880 I don't think so.
01:40:10.680 This is one of those weird things where our priorities do not match up with Israel's priorities.
01:40:17.300 If I were Israeli, I would be arguing, I'm sure, for a massive response to this.
01:40:23.260 As an American, my interest is to hope that World War III doesn't break out.
01:40:27.920 And so the fact that they shot all these down, I mean, you could fairly look at this and say Israel just won this back and forth, right?
01:40:36.440 Like they took out real military assets and felt very little destruction from it.
01:40:42.640 This is the way the New World Order works and has been working since Vietnam.
01:40:47.200 You don't go all out.
01:40:49.000 One country who wants out of it retaliates, but they warn you in advance, hey, we're going to tell you it and it's going to be coming around this time, so look out.
01:40:58.520 And then you're allowed to shoot them all down.
01:41:01.740 And then the loser, Iran in this case, walks away going, ah, victory to its people.
01:41:08.160 And the people cheer and everybody else goes.
01:41:11.820 Then that is what's happening.
01:41:13.600 Right.
01:41:13.820 That is exactly what's happening.
01:41:14.860 Now it's the question of the next step.
01:41:17.300 Right.
01:41:17.520 If I were Israel, see, this would be, again, our interests are not aligned.
01:41:23.280 If I'm Israel, I'm like, take them out.
01:41:28.520 You just showed the superior force here.
01:41:32.280 You just showed you can take them out.
01:41:34.560 Free the people of Iran.
01:41:37.140 Kill those guys.
01:41:38.800 Take them out.
01:41:39.460 You can do it now.
01:41:40.540 Certainly target any facility you believe has nuclear capability.
01:41:45.120 I mean, they could justify almost anything after this, which is understandable.
01:41:49.080 And how I would want it handled if I were Israeli.
01:41:51.980 I mean, we could say the same thing about Ukraine.
01:41:54.160 Right.
01:41:54.300 Like, if I was Ukrainian, I would be like, no, they're not taking Crimea and keeping it forever.
01:42:00.180 I don't want it.
01:42:00.880 I'm fighting for our land.
01:42:03.040 That's how I would feel if I were in Ukraine and I were Ukrainian.
01:42:06.920 I am not, however.
01:42:08.560 Right.
01:42:08.720 And my interest is I don't want nuclear war breaking out.
01:42:12.060 Correct.
01:42:12.320 So whatever border you have, I'm a little more open to.
01:42:16.520 It's weird that someone would attack Ukraine and take those cities or try to take and kill all those people.
01:42:27.080 And our interest is not aligned with Ukraine.
01:42:31.040 And yet we're like, hey, get them.
01:42:36.920 So we're pushing for nuclear war there.
01:42:40.600 But when Iran does pretty much the same thing, we're like, hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:42:45.960 Come on, guys.
01:42:47.360 I mean, the fact that we came out and basically made a statement saying we will not help you if you retaliate.
01:42:51.940 We prejudged their reaction, sending a massive signal to them once again, saying we will control your response to this if you want our help in any way, including arms sales.
01:43:06.060 Right.
01:43:07.620 We are doing that.
01:43:08.920 We are trying to exert our influence there publicly to them.
01:43:14.200 And it's fascinating.
01:43:15.340 We don't.
01:43:15.840 We do the exact opposite in Ukraine.
01:43:17.780 Exact opposite.
01:43:18.480 We say keep going.
01:43:19.500 You guys can win.
01:43:20.240 You got this.
01:43:20.900 You got this.
01:43:21.800 We'll get you everything that you need.
01:43:23.520 And they're threatening nuclear, but they don't have a record of using nuclear Russia.
01:43:29.580 They've had nuclear for a long time and they haven't used it.
01:43:32.680 Not to say that they won't use it, but not a big issue of restraint.
01:43:36.260 I don't think necessarily, but I mean, when it comes to Iran, they are all hepped up to use it.
01:43:42.560 Yeah, they want it.
01:43:43.980 They want to use it.
01:43:45.240 And, you know, speaking of those documentaries of Germany, where was Persia?
01:43:54.240 Oh, I remember.
01:43:56.400 Persia.
01:43:57.160 It was changed to Iran, wasn't it?
01:44:00.480 Oh, the name.
01:44:01.120 Yeah.
01:44:01.240 Why?
01:44:01.620 Yeah.
01:44:02.020 Do you remember why?
01:44:02.780 Well, I know that the translation means Aryan.
01:44:07.560 We're your Aryan nation.
01:44:10.700 So maybe because of the influence in Persia at the time where they all loved Hitler, maybe we should believe the Persians or the Aryans now saying we're going to burn Israel in the fury of the Islamic fires.
01:44:30.220 Maybe, maybe we should, maybe we should take them, you know, at their word.
01:44:34.880 Isn't it the fires of the Islamic fury?
01:44:37.780 I could be.
01:44:38.620 I don't remember which one.
01:44:39.660 Could be.
01:44:40.080 It was something like that.
01:44:41.060 It was something like that.
01:44:41.800 I just know they want to burn it all down.
01:44:44.020 Yeah.
01:44:44.620 Kind of like, hmm.
01:44:47.280 Oh, Hitler was into that.
01:44:49.320 He was.
01:44:49.840 Yeah, that's weird.
01:44:50.720 And then it was Iran, along with the Mufti, that got all of the plans for the concentration camps, and they were going to build them all over Iran to kill all the Jews.
01:45:05.160 Huh.
01:45:06.740 Well, good thing that the Mufti didn't have it.
01:45:08.740 Oh, wait a minute.
01:45:09.660 No, the Mufti.
01:45:11.320 Didn't he start Hamas?
01:45:12.600 Yeah, he started Hamas, which is funded by Iran, both of them loving Germany, hating the Jews.
01:45:21.360 Wow.
01:45:22.620 I just threw this one all together.
01:45:25.180 Maybe we should pay attention.
01:45:26.940 Maybe they are the bad guys.
01:45:29.780 If I was in Israel, I know that's what I'd be saying.
01:45:33.460 Get them while you can.
01:45:35.500 Unfortunately, that would be bad for us, so I'm not encouraging anybody.
01:45:43.360 Just stand here and just, like, freeze.
01:45:46.100 That's what you should do.
01:45:47.320 If I were president right now, I'd just be like, I don't hear you.
01:45:52.280 La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
01:45:54.000 Anyway, no matter how much we don't want bad things to happen, bad things happen.
01:45:58.840 There comes a day when a first responder or a military service member just doesn't come home.
01:46:04.480 Or maybe they do come home, but they're so severely injured that their lives and the lives of their families are never the same.
01:46:10.700 The Tunnel to Towers Foundation is there for these people.
01:46:14.260 For catastrophically injured veterans and first responders, they build mortgage-free smart homes,
01:46:19.640 allowing those heroes to move around more independently, more financially secure.
01:46:24.380 Their homeless veteran program helped over 3,300 homeless veterans alone.
01:46:30.720 It is an abomination that we have that problem.
01:46:35.140 They do so much more for people who put their lives on the line for our community and our country.
01:46:40.040 People who need our help now more than ever before.
01:46:43.780 Would you help them?
01:46:45.040 Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
01:46:48.700 That's T, the number two, T, dot org.
01:46:54.380 Our opinions weighing you down.
01:46:56.760 Call in and let it out.
01:46:59.040 888-727-BECK.
01:47:04.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:47:20.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:47:22.820 So, I'm going to be interviewing today, in just a few hours, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., which should be interesting.
01:47:35.060 Would be interesting, yeah.
01:47:37.520 Do you have to listen to his voice to hear the interview?
01:47:40.260 You do.
01:47:41.200 You do.
01:47:41.800 I'm out.
01:47:42.200 You do.
01:47:42.340 But the reason why I say it's going to be an interesting conversation, one of the just many reasons it'll be interesting is I'm going in for an injection in my back today.
01:47:55.540 Okay.
01:47:55.780 And they put me under with Profefol, and I guess, like, is that the true serum?
01:48:02.620 And, like, something that is also used as true serum.
01:48:05.520 Okay.
01:48:05.940 And you're not supposed to do anything after.
01:48:08.600 You're not supposed to sign any contracts, do anything of importance.
01:48:12.800 You're really supposed to go home and sleep.
01:48:15.600 But I'm going to get off the table and come right back and do an interview.
01:48:19.080 So, this might be a very interesting conversation.
01:48:22.940 So, Bob, can I call you Bob?
01:48:26.880 Oh, that could be interesting.
01:48:28.260 Yeah, it could be interesting.
01:48:29.040 Well, this is, of course, a person who famously called both you and Rush Limbaugh traitors that should be treated like traitors.
01:48:36.600 Yeah.
01:48:37.060 The Constitution has a designated treatment for traitors.
01:48:40.580 Yes.
01:48:40.980 It's death.
01:48:41.580 Death penalty.
01:48:41.880 So, yeah, that's, of course, fascinating.
01:48:43.740 Big supporter of the Green New Deal, I know.
01:48:45.760 Yeah.
01:48:45.820 Big universal health care supporter.
01:48:47.720 Huge universal health care.
01:48:48.800 Yeah.
01:48:49.380 Real conservative guy.
01:48:51.540 Someone conservative should be thinking about giving their vote to.
01:48:54.700 Yeah, I mean, I think he'd be, honestly, I think he'd be a great answer to Joe Biden, but I can't understand why.
01:49:02.060 You mean if a Biden voter who didn't want to vote for Biden would consider him?
01:49:05.600 Yeah, he'd be great.
01:49:05.880 But I don't know why you would consider yourself conservative and then vote for a guy who's all big government.
01:49:12.780 Yeah.
01:49:13.900 Really a fascinating thing.
01:49:15.320 In fact, I mean, if you want to vote for the guy who Barack Obama was looking at for his Environmental Protection Agency head, that's a guy.
01:49:24.420 This is a guy you might want to consider as a conservative.
01:49:26.880 Yeah.
01:49:26.980 Because he's a real, real.
01:49:28.080 Real good.
01:49:28.880 Right down the line.
01:49:29.780 Yeah.
01:49:30.060 He's a right down the line conservative.
01:49:31.760 He called for me to be treated as somebody who was committing treason because of my point of view on global warming.
01:49:40.340 Right.
01:49:40.640 So he's very open-minded, very open-minded.
01:49:44.900 Big Hugo Chavez supporter, too.
01:49:47.460 Thought he did a great job in Venezuela.
01:49:49.980 Went on and on and on and on and on about his wonderful—
01:49:52.840 It's going to be an interesting interview today.
01:49:55.920 Jack some proof serum into it.
01:49:57.280 The Glenn Beck Program.
