00:00:00.000 Claudia was leaving for her pickleball tournament.

00:00:02.080 I've been visualizing my match all week.

00:00:04.640 She was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column

00:00:07.680 behind her car on her backhand side.

00:00:10.960 Good thing Claudia is with Intact, the insurer with the largest network

00:00:14.320 of auto service centers in the country.

00:00:16.320 Everything was taken care of under one roof,

00:00:18.320 and she was on her way in a rental car in no time.

00:00:20.720 I made it to my tournament and lost in the first round.

00:00:24.240 But you got there on time.

00:00:31.520 Uh, finally, um, there is a way for you to get away, uh, from, uh,

00:00:36.400 bugs and fire ants and everything else that is like, so man,

00:00:40.640 you just walk outside in Texas and the bugs are not good.

00:00:45.920 Uh, and if you have them invading your house, it's really not good.

00:00:49.440 Um, spiders everywhere, ants, uh, you know, uh,

00:00:54.880 all kinds of stuff in your house.

00:00:56.160 Look, Moxie is a professional way to really get help. 1.00

00:01:36.640 We push back against the lies, the censorship,

00:01:54.080 Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us

00:01:58.080 break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.

00:02:02.880 This isn't a podcast.

00:02:04.320 This is a movement, and you're part of it, a big part of it.

00:02:07.680 So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up,

00:02:14.480 Together, we'll make a difference.

00:02:16.480 And thanks for standing, Willis.

00:02:17.840 Now let's get to work.

00:02:46.480 Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh.

00:02:55.600 Down the road, where shadows hide, feel the dark on every side.

00:03:00.960 Stand your ground, when times get dark.

00:03:03.480 Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

00:03:08.200 of entertainment and enlightenment, this is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:19.660 Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. There is a new poll out. It is,

00:03:24.340 it's disturbing. In 2001, are you proud to be an American? Extremely proud to be an American

00:03:33.460 in 2001. Democrats, 87 percent. Republicans, 90 percent. Extremely proud to be an American.

00:03:41.860 2025, with a 51 percent drop. 38 percent of Democrats, sorry, 36 percent of Democrats say

00:03:51.140 they're extremely proud to be an American. Republicans hover around the same, up two points.

00:03:57.020 It's 92 percent. We are a split nation, and the question is why? Well, because there's two

00:04:03.140 Americas, and they're both kind of true, we'll explain in 60 seconds. Stand by. First, let me

00:04:09.960 tell you about our sponsor this half hour. It's the Berna Launcher. When was the last time that you

00:04:14.240 left your house thinking, I might get attacked today? Now, right? Probably never. That's a

00:04:20.000 problem in some ways because danger doesn't announce itself. It doesn't send you a courtesy

00:04:24.560 text to say, hey, by the way, today's the day. That's why you should always have a Berna Launcher

00:04:28.760 with you in your car, in your purse, whatever. It's an, I'm not judging you. You can have a

00:04:33.540 Merce. The non-lethal defense tool that packs enough punch to shut down an attacker instantly

00:04:39.200 without taking a life and without a legal nightmare that can come from using legal force. And now,

00:04:44.700 the new Compact Launcher makes it even easier for you to carry. It fits better in your belt,

00:04:49.460 under your bag, or, you know, in your, under your jacket. It is smaller, it is sleeker, it is more

00:04:55.300 concealable, and that matters because you can't defend yourself with something that you left at

00:05:00.520 home. The Compact Berna Launcher. Get one right now. There's nothing more American than Berna. They're

00:05:05.820 manufactured right here in the U.S. Starting tomorrow, they're offering a 10% off for the

00:05:10.700 American people at Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com, or you get 10% off at Sportsman's Warehouse or Berna 0.79

00:05:16.660 retail location near you. 10% off at Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com. Let's say hello to Stuber here,

00:05:26.040 our executive producer. Hello, Stu, how are you? Hello, Stuber here. Welcome back to you. Thank

00:05:31.940 you. Yes. So, 87% of the Democrats in 2001, extremely proud to be an American. Now, 36%.

00:05:41.720 It's a slight drop off? Slight, slight. No way to keep a country. No way to keep a country. No. Now,

00:05:49.100 the number for Republicans, relatively consistent, right? Actually up, I think slightly. Up two

00:05:54.840 points. Yeah. Now, was this in the aftermath, immediate aftermath of September 11th? Is that

00:06:00.540 why it's so high with Democrats? Maybe. I mean, maybe, maybe. I think that, I mean, let's look at

00:06:07.120 this, though. You know, before September 11th, you know, we all thought that we were all pretty

00:06:13.400 much the same. We all thought we were pretty much the same, and there were those that, you

00:06:16.200 know, were on the fringes. But in the last 25 years, I mean, what have you heard about? If

00:06:20.760 you're a Democrat, what have you heard about? You've heard about the genocide of indigenous

00:06:24.960 peoples. You've heard about the massacres and the forced removals and the trail of tears

00:06:29.100 and the boarding schools and the broken treaties and slavery and the legacy of racism and colonialism

00:06:36.120 and his imperialism and the annexation and the taking of Hawaii and the conquest of the

00:06:41.280 Philippines and Puerto Rico's now a colony and all the CIA-backed coups and the inclusion 0.99

00:06:47.440 or exclusion in the internment camps and the Chinese Exclusion Act and the Japanese Americans

00:06:52.720 and the Muslim surveillance and how anti-Muslim we are. We're all really afraid of all Muslims.

00:06:59.960 The anti-labor repression, the Ludlow massacre, COINTELPRO, the labor organizers and civil rights

00:07:10.220 activists that have just been oppressed the whole time, and women were denied their vote

00:07:14.420 until 1920, and there were restricted roles in the workforce and politics and reproductive

00:07:19.580 rights and all of the... What did we do on HIV? We did nothing on HIV. And homosexual rights, 0.99

00:07:26.740 my gosh, we're still throwing people off of buildings if you're a homosexual and trans. 1.00

00:07:31.220 Don't even get me started with trans. And then the environmental exploitation, the rivers that have 1.00

00:07:36.980 been set on fire, the poisoned communities. Look at Flint, Michigan, and the land is stripped for profit.

00:07:42.980 Now we want to sell our own national parks. The medical racism, the abuse, and the Tuskegee

00:07:48.800 experiment, and forced sterilizations, and the racial bias in health care that's still evident today,

00:07:54.880 you know. Suppression of dissent with the Palmer raids, and McCarthyism, and the surveillance of

00:08:00.140 civil rights leaders, and the protest criminalization. You can't even go out now and set any fires on the

00:08:05.800 streets without being deemed a radical or revolutionary, and they want to throw you in jail just for

00:08:12.040 breaking into a Macy's. And capitalism, it's nothing but an exploitation. Capitalism inherently generates

00:08:20.420 inequality and alienation and commodifies every human relationship. You know, the state is nothing

00:08:27.800 more than a tool of class denomination, and the police and the courts and the military, all they do

00:08:32.540 is protect the elite interest, not the public welfare. They're against you, you know, be afraid of the

00:08:37.640 police. And private property and wealth is just hoarded by the wealthy, their inherited wealth, the land

00:08:44.760 monopolies, the billionaire class accumulation. It's just fundamentally unjust. And then we have a two-party

00:08:51.560 system. It's nothing but a managed illusion. Real power resides with donors, lobbyists, the unelected

00:08:58.180 bureaucrats, the military, permanent war economy, the prison industrial complex, the gender and patriarchal 0.99

00:09:06.100 control, the surveillance capitalism, and let me, don't even get me started on the genocide,

00:09:12.860 the climate genocide. That's all you've heard for 25 years. That's all you've heard. And some of that

00:09:22.980 stuff is true. Some of it is true. But tell me, where is the perfect nation? Where is the nation that is

00:09:37.680 better than that? Where is the nation that has corrected itself over and over and over again?

00:09:46.320 You know, we've been told over and over about how bad America is, how America is just broken.

00:09:54.960 Let me ask you, what would your life be? How different would your life be if America hadn't existed?

00:10:03.580 Because you live in a world now that America built. Not alone, not uniquely, but decisively.

00:10:19.500 Decisively, we change the world forever. And in many good ways. You know, you've grown up only

00:10:27.860 hearing the sins. Can you pause for just a minute today? Just a minute. Because the nation's story is

00:10:34.480 not propaganda. It's proof. Yes, it's brutal. Yes, it's flawed. Yes, it's ugly. Yes, it's undeniable.

00:10:47.100 But there's also some undeniable truths. That one country rooted in liberty reshaped the planet,

00:10:54.460 yes, for good. I mean, most people likely think World War II was just a foregone conclusion. 0.70

00:11:04.120 If they even studied it. If they even know who Hitler was. If they know what fascism, what the

00:11:11.140 difference between fascism in 1930 and fascism today. It wasn't a foregone conclusion. Without

00:11:21.460 America, Hitler wins. Japan keeps the Pacific. Fascism becomes the dominant force of the 20th 0.82

00:11:27.400 century. Oh my gosh, we just went over and all we tried to do was just kill the Japanese. We just 1.00

00:11:33.120 wanted to vaporize the Japanese. Do you know what the Japanese military did? They were worse than the 1.00

00:11:38.700 Germans, but we never focused on that, did we? America mobilized faster, produced more, fought longer

00:11:47.440 than anyone else. We built more tanks and planes than the Axis combined. We led the invasion 0.83

00:11:54.780 that broke the Nazi grip. We dropped food as well as bombs. Did you know that? We did something 0.89

00:12:03.320 even rarer. We didn't conquer. We rebuilt. And while communism tried to replace fascism, we were the

00:12:19.120 ones on the front line and stood our ground again. For 45 years, we held the line. Not with brute force

00:12:25.200 alone, but with ideas, with culture, with freedom, with genes, with music, with hope. If you think

00:12:34.740 communism is great, talk to somebody who lived under communism. You've been lied to your whole life.

00:12:41.140 Your school, while you say America is just indoctrinated people, try your school. Try your university.

00:12:49.380 Question things. Why do you question power, but you don't question the power of the university?

00:13:02.240 The Soviet Union collapsed because people wanted what America had and not genes. They wanted freedom.

00:13:11.300 They wanted the freedom to express themselves. They wanted freedom to be able to create their own music,

00:13:16.560 to live their own life, to buy the things they wanted, to own something.

00:13:24.180 Do you know that before America's rise, extreme poverty was the norm?

00:13:29.180 Extreme poverty. Kings had jewels.

00:13:34.040 Nobody else had jewels. You had dirt.

00:13:36.740 And you didn't even own that dirt. And then came the engine of capitalism.

00:13:41.260 It pioneered. It scaled. It was exported by the U.S.

00:13:46.540 Yes, we did export capitalism. Oh my gosh, that was just nothing but exploitation.

00:13:52.400 No, it wasn't.

00:13:54.580 It was innovation. It was supply chains, trade routes, machines, markets, standards.

00:14:01.960 It was also charity.

00:14:03.600 Over a billion human beings lifted from starvation-level poverty.

00:14:09.880 Let me say that again.

00:14:11.340 Over a billion humans lifted from starvation-level poverty in just 50 years.

00:14:19.460 You know, here behind me is a potbelly stove, an old stove.

00:14:25.680 You know where that potbelly stove came from?

00:14:28.200 That potbelly stove behind me, I don't know if you can see it.

00:14:31.160 We're sitting over there in the corner, right there.

00:14:33.140 That old potbelly stove. You know who invented that?

00:14:35.340 Ben Franklin.

00:14:36.700 You know what else Ben Franklin did? 0.98

00:14:38.540 Ben Franklin, oh, he's a monster.

00:14:41.160 Ben Franklin also developed what's called the patent.

00:14:44.440 Do you know what a patent is?

00:14:46.860 Do you know that America invented the patent?

00:14:49.800 It was Ben Franklin that said, we have to have a patent.

00:14:53.260 Why?

00:14:53.920 Because you want to talk about exploitation.

00:14:55.560 Before America, you could invent something, and you had no power to keep it.

00:15:01.260 There was no such thing as your invention.

00:15:04.360 You could invent it, but some rich guy would come and steal it right from underneath you.

00:15:11.760 And they would get rich, and you would get nothing.

00:15:14.260 You led your life in poverty because you couldn't invent and then scale anything.

00:15:21.380 You would invent, somebody else would steal it, they would get rich.

00:15:26.640 It was Ben Franklin, one of our founders, that said, this exploitation has got to stop.

00:15:31.840 And he, when he took and invented thing after thing after thing, like the potbelly stove,

00:15:36.400 which brought heat into people's houses. 0.99

00:15:39.800 Do you know what the number one cause of death for women was? 0.99

00:15:43.500 At the time, the number one cause of death for women was burning to death

00:15:49.260 because they would cook over the fire in the house,

00:15:53.380 and their dress or their clothing would catch fire, and they would burn to death.

00:15:57.120 The number one cause was burn to death.

00:16:02.620 Potbelly stove kept that fire tamed.

00:16:05.740 It heated the house.

00:16:07.840 It gave you something to cook on without the open flame.

00:16:13.240 And do you know how much money Ben Franklin made on this?

00:16:15.420 Oh my gosh, the exploitation.

00:16:17.400 None.

00:16:18.180 Why?

00:16:18.560 Because he refused.

00:16:19.600 The guy who invented the patent decided not to patent it

00:16:23.640 because he felt it was right to give this to the world.

00:16:28.380 It was his choice.

00:16:30.200 It wasn't the government telling him.

00:16:31.780 It was his choice because not only did he believe in the wealth of nations with Adam Smith,

00:16:37.980 he also believed in moral sentiments.

00:16:41.580 You had to be good and decent.

00:16:45.660 How about the Green Revolution?

00:16:47.380 No, not the one you think about.

00:16:48.880 The Green Revolution, an American scientist.

00:16:52.600 An American scientist saved up to 2 billion lives with seeds.

00:16:57.820 That's the real Green Revolution. 0.92

00:16:59.780 Today, your phone is made in Asia. 1.00

00:17:02.640 Yeah, I know you hate this global thing.

00:17:04.760 You hate the American system.

00:17:06.460 It was made in Asia.

00:17:08.240 It was shipped to you globally, sold online, all through systems created by American globalization.

00:17:17.760 We wrote the operating system for modern freedom.

00:17:22.400 Every modern democracy borrows from our Constitution.

00:17:24.780 Our founders invented a government designed to limit power.

00:17:31.440 And what have you done on the left?

00:17:33.840 You have only grown the power.

00:17:37.220 You know, there used to be a thing that the right did.

00:17:40.340 And the left used to be for small government.

00:17:43.640 For human rights.

00:17:45.840 For constitutional rights.

00:17:47.180 You're not for that now.

00:17:48.180 You're not for the separation of powers. 0.59

00:17:51.960 You're for consolidating all of the powers.

00:17:55.400 Are you for the free press while you silence people on X?

00:18:00.340 Regular elections.

00:18:01.640 Due process.

00:18:02.560 This didn't come from perdition.

00:18:04.380 It didn't come from a king.

00:18:06.240 It came from America.

00:18:08.040 All of those things.

00:18:09.820 Jefferson.

00:18:10.420 Hamilton.

00:18:11.000 Madison.

00:18:11.380 They didn't just write rules.

00:18:14.340 They lit a fuse.

00:18:16.860 From Tiananmen Square to Tehran.

00:18:19.240 Dissidents quote our words.

00:18:21.540 They hold our flags.

00:18:23.240 That's not nationalism.

00:18:24.700 That's impact.

00:18:31.320 You are told today we never walked on the moon.

00:18:34.620 And you think you're educated?

00:18:37.080 Talk to somebody about the mirrors and the laser systems that we have on the moon now.

00:18:44.740 How'd they get there?

00:18:47.100 What movie were they put in?

00:18:51.120 Americans made this happen.

00:18:53.880 You're online today because the Pentagon that you hate so much built the internet.

00:18:59.000 You carry a supercomputer in your pocket because of the moonshot and Silicon Valley.

00:19:04.780 You know the phrase app store, cloud, AI, all American inventions, all of them.

00:19:14.020 When new therapies or treatments are pioneered, mRNA, robotic surgery, cancer breakthroughs.

00:19:20.820 They usually start here.

00:19:22.420 And I'm just getting started.

00:19:29.080 Ten seconds.

00:19:30.460 In just a minute, let me come back to you.

00:19:32.200 Let me do a 60-second commercial and then I'll come back to you in ten seconds.

00:19:35.100 First, you want to fix your day?

00:19:37.300 Start with your night.

00:19:38.900 You and I both know what it's like to feel when you wake up exhausted.

00:19:42.560 You hate that.

00:19:43.320 You drag through the morning.

00:19:44.320 You lose focus in the afternoon.

00:19:45.740 Then you crash only to toss and turn all over again.

00:19:48.160 It's a cycle and I hate it.

00:19:49.800 It's why the makers of Relief Factor created Z Factor.

00:19:53.680 It's a natural, non-habit-forming sleep supplement that helps you fall asleep faster,

00:19:58.160 stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling actually rested, not groggy, not foggy.

00:20:03.180 You know, no need to be in a wrestling match with your mattress every night.

00:20:07.900 One good night of sleep could change your entire outlook.

00:20:10.440 But I want you to imagine a week of good sleep.

00:20:15.780 A month of good, six months of good sleep.

00:20:18.740 That could happen and it'll change your life forever.

00:20:21.320 So if you're tired of staring at the ceiling, waking up at 3.17 a.m.,

00:20:25.740 counting the hours until you have to pretend to function, try Z Factor.

00:20:40.080 Ten seconds, back to you.

00:20:53.140 You know, you hate America, I understand.

00:20:55.780 On this Fourth of July weekend, I ask you just to think, to ask questions.

00:21:00.020 Where did your music come from?

00:21:02.400 Because every beat of rebellion you ever heard in a song, that's America.

00:21:06.960 Jazz, blues, rock, hip-hop, all born here.

00:21:10.720 Not sanitized, raw.

00:21:13.120 Stories of injustice, identity, longing, faith, grit, all of it.

00:21:18.660 No empire in the history of the world has ever given a loudspeaker to its critics.

00:21:24.520 And when the world broke, America opened its doors.

00:21:32.280 Do you think we hate foreigners?

00:21:34.900 We just hate, we don't want any immigrants here. 1.00

00:21:37.140 We've always opened our doors. 0.99

00:21:38.500 Jews fleeing programs.

00:21:40.540 Vietnamese, the boat people. 1.00

00:21:42.100 Cubans escaping communism.

00:21:44.420 Ukrainians escaping bombs.

00:21:46.540 This is not a myth.

00:21:47.800 The Irish coming here because of the potato famine.

00:21:52.860 The Chinese coming. 1.00

00:21:55.880 These are all real lives, saved by a real idea that here you can chart your own course.

00:22:03.040 You can begin again here and have a chance.

00:22:08.180 Yeah, and I know.

00:22:09.580 I know.

00:22:10.340 We are a horrible, horrible place.

00:22:12.440 You know how I know?

00:22:14.060 Because here's the truth no activist wants to admit.

00:22:16.520 America ended its own original sin through war with itself.

00:22:23.620 No nation fought a bloodier war, a bloodier battle to abolish slavery than America did.

00:22:30.260 And we didn't get it perfect.

00:22:32.200 But we got better.

00:22:33.760 By choice, not by conquest.

00:22:35.840 By choice.

00:22:36.640 And unlike many other nations, we didn't bury our sins. 0.94

00:22:39.180 We faced them.

00:22:40.900 We faced them.

00:22:41.760 It might take us a while, but we faced them.

00:22:43.820 Tell me the other countries that tear themselves apart like we do just to be better.

00:22:49.100 The Civil Rights Act, the voting rights, fair housing.

00:22:51.740 These were all laws, not won by a coup, but by principle.

00:22:57.840 Even the loudest critics, Zinn, Chomsky, Malcolm X, they're all protected by American law.

00:23:05.220 In other countries, they'd be jailed or they'd be dead.

00:23:09.440 Here, they're assigned in classrooms.

00:23:14.500 Tell me about how hateful we really are.

00:23:19.220 What if America never existed?

00:23:22.960 What if it never existed? 0.94

00:23:25.240 Germany and Japan are fascist empires. 0.97

00:23:27.680 South Korea is nothing but a gulag. 0.95

00:23:29.920 There's no internet, no moon landing, no iPhone.

00:23:32.540 The world doesn't know the word freedom.

00:23:35.300 They only know the word order.

00:23:38.940 You didn't grow up with rights.

00:23:42.640 You would grow up asking for permission.

00:23:45.820 Final thought on this next.

00:23:49.320 This is Glenn Beck.

00:23:54.000 History doesn't always move slowly.

00:23:56.380 Sometimes it rushes at you fast.

00:23:58.740 Prices spike, currencies shake.

00:24:00.300 Politicians make sweeping decisions that ripple through the markets before you've even finished your first cup of coffee.

00:24:07.120 If you've ever looked around and thought, you know, I'm not sure my retirement plan is built for this, you're not alone.

00:25:08.160 Something new is coming that's not only going to change history, but also the way we learn about it.

00:25:13.100 You can follow along at glennbeck.com.

00:25:31.380 Let me pick it up where I was.

00:25:34.560 I was, I'm talking about a new poll that has come out that shows that Democrats now, it's quite remarkable, have gone from 87%, very patriotic, extremely proud to be an American, 87%, to now 36%.

00:25:57.860 That's a drop of 51 points.

00:26:00.660 Republicans, 90%, yes, in 2001.

00:26:05.860 Republicans, 92%, yes, today.

00:26:09.700 A 51% drop.

00:26:12.300 Why?

00:26:12.960 Because all you have heard is all of the bad things about America.

00:26:16.960 That's all anyone has allowed you to focus on, the bad things.

00:26:21.220 And I'm here to tell you that America has been very, very bad at times, but also America is good.

00:26:28.700 Now, I just, I just pointed out some things like the real green revolution, not the one you think of, but the real green revolution, where American scientists were the ones who fed the world.

00:26:42.800 Now, wait a minute, Glenn, hang on just a second, fed the world, that means GMOs.

00:26:47.560 Yeah, it does.

00:26:48.680 It does mean GMOs.

00:26:50.740 And you know what?

00:26:51.580 We did our best at the time, and now we are questioning that.

00:26:56.080 We're now questioning, going, I don't know if that was such a good idea.

00:26:59.260 See, this is the key to America.

00:27:02.000 America is not good because she's perfect. 1.00

00:27:04.740 No country is perfect.

00:27:06.040 We are certainly far from perfect, but it's good because it's capable of self-correction.

00:27:15.320 It paid in blood for people it would never meet because it fights its own darkness all the time.

00:27:24.480 It keeps the light on for others.

00:27:26.640 The left has only taught you America's sins, that's it.

00:27:32.640 And you should hear them.

00:27:34.200 And I can outdo any of those on the left.

00:27:36.820 I can tell, I'll tell you stories about America that will make your hair turn white.

00:27:41.260 Look at mine.

00:27:41.800 Why do you think it's white?

00:27:42.840 I'm actually 23 years old.

00:27:45.920 I just know the stories of America, but I also know the good stories.

00:27:50.480 You should hear the bad stories, but don't stop there.

00:27:52.720 You should hear the good, the bad, and the ugly.

00:27:55.180 You deserve the full truth.

00:27:58.300 This broken, striving, maddening republic changed the world, and it still can for good.

00:28:08.560 It gave you the life you live right now.

00:28:13.780 America didn't just happen to history.

00:28:16.480 It made history, and it's worth knowing why.

00:28:21.140 There are things that you don't even understand today.

00:28:23.600 I don't even understand today.

00:28:25.320 Have you ever heard the phrase, hey, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater?

00:28:28.680 Do you know why that is?

00:28:30.960 I can't even understand that.

00:28:32.440 Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

00:28:34.500 Why would I throw the baby out with the bathwater?

00:28:37.100 Because when people used to take baths, the water would get so nasty and dirty.

00:28:43.840 It would start with dad, because he was out working all the time.

00:28:46.560 Then mom would take a bath in dad's water.

00:28:49.200 And then the children would take the bath.

00:28:51.440 And there was usually eight of them.

00:28:53.560 And then the baby would take the bath.

00:28:55.540 The last one to get the bath would be the baby. 0.98

00:28:58.360 By the time the baby was in the bath, the water was so nasty and dirty that you'd just dump it out.

00:29:06.440 You couldn't see anything in the water because it was so nasty.

00:29:09.360 In other words, there might be something good in there.

00:29:13.800 You just can't see it.

00:29:16.620 You live in a world where you don't even understand that phrase.

00:29:22.880 You don't even.

00:29:23.760 You know why?

00:29:24.640 Because we have indoor plumbing and running water.

00:29:28.160 Do you ever wonder why they don't have it in China?

00:29:31.720 Do you ever wonder why they don't have it in Africa? 0.79

00:29:35.480 Do you ever wonder why it is all throughout the Western world?

00:29:38.880 Because the Western world had standards.

00:29:42.220 And I don't mean hygiene standards.

00:29:44.620 We had standards for safety.

00:29:48.840 We had standards for plumbing and electricity.

00:29:55.180 We built these things.

00:29:57.700 And then we created the standards.

00:29:59.640 And because we had law and order and people just weren't just breaking into stores because I got an axe to grind.

00:30:08.840 And because there was relatively equal justice compared to the rest of the world.

00:30:14.200 That's the important part.

00:30:15.580 Compared to the rest of the world.

00:30:17.860 We had standards and we could build where everyone else was just trying to survive.

00:30:27.360 So this July 4th, this Independence Week, I would suggest you spend more time thinking about what your life, as you're eating that hot dog.

00:30:41.320 Yeah, you can think, I wonder if there's a tooth in this hot dog.

00:30:44.320 Or you can think, my God, look at the system that is bringing all of this food to my table.

00:30:51.580 Have you ever thought?

00:30:53.200 Do you remember?

00:30:54.480 I'm 60.

00:30:55.700 I'm just 60.

00:30:57.380 I remember a time when you didn't get strawberries in the winter.

00:31:02.260 You didn't have year-round seedless watermelon.

00:31:06.380 You didn't, you had seasonal fruit.

00:31:11.600 What was in season?

00:31:14.540 I'm 60.

00:31:18.840 A hundred years ago, most people didn't have fruit.

00:31:26.600 They didn't have electricity.

00:31:28.780 They didn't have running water.

00:31:31.740 And look at the world today.

00:31:34.080 Do you think that just happened?

00:31:36.860 Before you burn this system down to the ground, before you start to say, I want to give the means of production to the people, because communism is swell.

00:31:48.900 Maybe you should ask, how swell is it over in former communist countries?

00:31:56.600 Russia.

00:31:59.900 How swell is it in Venezuela?

00:32:02.360 How swell is it in Cuba?

00:32:10.480 A lot of things have happened.

00:32:13.860 And a lot of good things have happened because this country existed.

00:32:17.540 So, let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

00:32:22.720 Did you see the, how do you say his name?

00:32:28.960 Mom Donnie.

00:32:30.280 Mom Donnie.

00:32:31.560 Did you see him yesterday talking about means of production and everything else?

00:32:36.160 I mean, this guy's a communist.

00:32:37.440 All he wants to do is seize the means of production, Glenn.

00:32:40.160 Are you upset?

00:32:41.220 That's all he wants to do.

00:32:42.400 I think that's a fascinating one because he's so comfortable in his communism that he doesn't even change the wording of it.

00:32:49.680 Like, lots of people on the left offer to seize the means of production, but they always word it in a way that isn't quoting Marx.

00:32:57.940 Like, yes.

00:32:59.060 Mom Donnie's like, everyone around him thinks it's a good idea.

00:33:02.400 So, he's totally fine saying it that way.

00:33:04.420 It's amazing.

00:33:06.760 I also loved him because you were talking about how, you know, you can improve things and how America has improved things.

00:33:14.660 I would argue that the fork is one thing that has been a solid improvement that America has adopted.

00:33:22.940 And Mom Donnie was, I don't know, was doing an interview or something where he was just eating, I think it was rice and beans or something like that with his fingers.

00:33:33.860 Did you see this?

00:33:34.820 Do we have the clip?

00:33:35.440 Well, that's what you can hear.

00:33:36.760 The third holy grail of taboos in American politics.

00:33:40.560 You have socialism, you have Islam, and then you have Palestine. 1.00

00:33:43.400 And you are really going for the trifecta.

00:33:45.680 Let's go, baby.

00:33:46.540 Let's go.

00:33:47.080 So, tell me, why is Palestine a part of your politics?

00:33:50.720 When you grow up as someone, especially in the third world, you have a very different understanding of the Palestinian struggle.

00:33:59.080 Now, of course, he didn't grow up in the third world.

00:34:01.320 No, he just said he did.

00:34:02.980 No, he grew up as a rich kid.

00:34:04.200 It's got nothing to do with the third world.

00:34:06.000 He's eating as if he was in the third world, eating squishy, gross foods with his fingers.

00:34:12.320 Um, and, uh, it really, honestly, socialism, Hamas, uh, less offensive to me than his eating style.

00:34:22.900 Uh, that's, I actually, I would.

00:34:25.700 No, he's eating with his hands because that's the way he grew up as a poor kid in Kenya or wherever he grew up.

00:34:31.340 No, he grew up as a rich kid.

00:34:34.540 Again, like, there are certain foods you can eat with your fingers.

00:34:37.720 Uh-huh.

00:34:38.440 Sandwiches, pretty much designed.

00:34:40.100 Right.

00:34:40.200 Uh, a hamburger, uh, designed to eat with your fingers.

00:34:43.920 I mean, chicken nuggets, uh, you know, eat those with your fingers.

00:34:47.220 Rice, it's just too slimy and squishy, and, uh, no, you shouldn't eat it with your fingers.

00:34:52.780 Do you know, do you know one reason why you don't want to eat stuff that's squishy and wet and everything else?

00:35:00.460 Is because the stuff you have on your hands, it might have been around squishy and wet stuff earlier in the day.

00:35:08.500 Yeah, yeah.

00:35:09.580 And you just don't want that on your food.

00:35:13.300 Dude, I mean, uh, it's, uh, it's hard to talk, it's hard to talk about, but you really, you know, there's another thing.

00:35:23.680 There's another thing Western culture brought to the fore, uh, for, and you know what, you know, who's really good at it?

00:35:29.540 Like, Jews, wash your hands. 1.00

00:35:32.880 You know why they didn't have, you know, didn't, the plague didn't hit them as much as everybody else? 0.98

00:35:37.940 Well, it's because they invented the plague.

00:35:39.920 Or, they knew, wash your hands all day long and wash your hands before you eat.

00:35:49.600 We didn't know that.

00:35:51.000 We didn't know that.

00:35:51.840 Nobody knew that.

00:35:52.620 And now we're going, we, we want to hold up a culture that says, oh yeah, just, you know, uh, yeah, you're out here on the street.

00:35:59.380 You're just buying street food and just, just take some of that and then eat it with your hands.

00:36:03.760 Cause what could have possibly gotten on your hands before you were in the streets, eating the street food with your hands?

00:36:13.460 I mean, I mean, Glenn, you, we used to work in New York City, just walking through there, the air that hits your hands is more toxic than anything that happened in Chernobyl.

00:36:25.760 Do you remember, do you remember, I was very proud of myself.

00:36:29.220 I could get from Radio City Music Hall to Time Warner on the subway without touching anything.

00:36:37.760 Do you remember that?

00:36:38.820 Yes.

00:36:39.640 Do you remember I had a system I could get from my office.

00:36:43.160 I could wash my hands, get from my office, all the way downstairs into the subway, onto the subway, take a couple of stops, get off, get out into Columbus Circle, get onto the elevator, get all the way up to my office.

00:37:01.160 And I wouldn't have to, I hadn't touched anything.

00:37:03.500 However.

00:37:04.100 That is an art form.

00:37:05.560 Just the, whatever toxic fumes were going through the subway, you'd still probably wash your hands because.

00:37:11.780 Oh no.

00:37:12.460 You mean the guy who was really, really sick that was standing right next to you going, that guy?

00:37:19.320 You mean there might be something?

00:37:20.540 No, I wanted to eat.

00:37:21.840 I wanted to go right up to the cafeteria and just eat with my hands.

00:37:25.320 Yeah.

00:37:26.180 No.

00:37:26.340 Well, you watch the video and the video is actually like legitimately gross to watch, but like as he's eating this stuff, he's, like if you put your hand in a, like if you figure, like there's a bowl of like egg yolks, right?

00:37:41.040 And you put your fingers in the egg yolks, right?

00:37:43.240 And you took your hands out, like they'd be on you and you'd like have to, you'd almost like shake, you'd want to shake off what was on your hands, right?

00:37:50.520 Like, that's what he's doing as he's eating.

00:37:52.740 Like, because all the stuff is on the sauce and the rice and it's on it and he's just like, like even he knows it's awful.

00:37:59.820 Stop.

00:38:00.100 And like, look, there was probably a time where this was the best way of doing things.

00:38:05.040 Now we have forks, okay?

00:38:07.420 Now we have spoons.

00:38:09.220 Now we have all sorts of different things that make that process.

00:38:12.540 Who are you to say that one culture is better than the other?

00:38:15.120 One culture is better than the other. 1.00

00:38:17.000 That's how I said it right there.

00:38:18.520 I just said it.

00:38:19.720 Our culture is awesome and I don't apologize for it.

00:38:23.500 Don't feel bad about it.

00:38:25.040 Don't feel like I need to apologize for it.

00:38:27.140 And if you don't like it, you want to eat with your hands, go live where they eat with their hands.

00:38:31.820 You want to eat with your hands, eat with your hands in your home.

00:38:34.600 I don't really care.

00:38:35.880 Yeah.

00:38:36.020 But don't try to tell me that that is better than everything.

00:38:39.660 Don't.

00:38:40.100 Don't.

00:38:40.440 Don't try to tell me that America is a horrible place that has not brought any kind of anything but human suffering.

00:38:48.040 All we've done is human suffering.

00:38:50.040 Forks.

00:38:50.400 Don't.

00:38:50.740 Okay. 1.00

00:38:51.040 You're ignorant. 1.00

00:38:52.020 Yeah. 1.00

00:38:52.440 Yeah.

00:38:52.620 You must ever have forks.

00:38:53.660 I'd like to remind you about forks.

00:38:55.500 Okay.

00:38:56.060 All right.

00:38:56.440 Thank you for boiling it down to the important stuff.

00:38:58.380 Now let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

00:39:01.140 It is a legacy box, you know, digging through your attic.

00:39:03.840 You ever feel like an archaeologist?

00:39:06.400 You go through, oh, wow.

00:39:07.480 Old ski goggles.

00:39:08.440 I remember those.

00:39:09.140 Got to save those.

00:39:09.880 High school trophy with water damage.

00:39:11.700 Single roller blade.

00:39:12.840 Don't know what happened to the other one.

00:39:14.600 Then buried deep in a box, you find the good stuff.

00:39:17.000 The tapes.

00:39:17.560 The old family films.

00:39:18.820 The photos from before any of us had a camera in our pocket.

00:39:22.380 But here's the problem.

00:39:23.120 Those memories, they're fading.

00:39:24.400 The tapes, they deteriorate.

00:39:26.300 The photos discolor.

00:39:27.460 The machines that play them break down.

00:39:29.180 I don't even have some of the machines on some of the tapes that I've had.

00:39:32.260 I don't even know what kind of machine that was that recorded that.

00:39:36.340 Legacy box is there.

00:39:37.680 And if you send them your old media, tapes, reels, prints, they digitize it all by hand.

00:39:42.820 Right here in the U.S.

00:39:43.860 They send everything back to you, the originals.

00:39:46.900 And then they send everything back to you on a thumb drive or the cloud or both.

00:39:50.560 The quality is excellent.

00:39:51.840 The process is super easy.

00:39:53.920 You don't just preserve memories.

00:39:55.340 You resurrect them.

00:39:57.400 So if you've got a box full of history gathering dust, open it up.

00:40:31.540 Glenn Beck is back in a sec.

00:43:02.100 I think that would bring us.

00:43:03.480 That's how you solve a problem like that.

00:43:07.240 You know, it's funny.

00:43:08.060 Stu and I have been together longer than we've been with our wives.

00:43:12.460 It is sad.

00:43:13.880 And as revolting as Mom Donnie's eating style. 1.00

00:43:17.160 But yes, it is true. 0.71

00:43:23.380 It's nice to have you back.

00:43:24.860 You're coming up here next weekend, aren't you?

00:43:26.660 I can't wait.

00:43:27.500 I've been, you know, I've never seen the ranch in person all these years, you know, never been invited.

00:43:34.860 And so finally you've invited me up there and I appreciate that.

00:43:38.720 And I'm excited to see it early.

00:43:40.560 Never invited.

00:43:41.340 Yeah.

00:43:41.780 Never invited.

00:43:42.740 You know.

00:43:44.760 Never once.

00:43:45.720 It's more, I mean, when you come up, you're like, this looks like a Motel 6.

00:43:51.160 Yeah.

00:43:51.760 It looks different on TV.

00:43:53.300 Yeah.

00:43:53.880 It looks spectacular on TV.

00:43:56.520 No, it's really not.

00:43:58.380 The mountains and stuff, that's just actually a parking lot.

00:44:01.400 It looks very much like a Motel 6.

00:44:03.400 So when you get here, don't be too disappointed.

00:44:05.800 You know, don't be like, wait, I thought it was a ranch.

00:44:08.400 It is.

00:44:08.700 I've mailed things to you.

00:44:09.980 It's a ranch style motel.

00:44:12.160 It's a totally different address when I sent things to you.

00:44:15.060 Why is that?

00:44:15.700 Yeah.

00:44:16.060 Yeah.

00:44:16.660 Yeah.

00:44:17.040 Don't, don't, don't pull that.

00:44:18.700 Don't pull that.

00:44:19.260 I've never given you the address.

00:44:21.120 You have no idea what the address is.

00:44:23.440 This is Glenn Beck.

00:44:28.320 Let me tell you about, Chip Royce coming up in a second.

00:44:30.480 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

00:44:33.140 Could you live without a phone?

00:44:34.260 I mean, really?

00:44:35.060 Think about it.

00:44:35.660 No GPS, no email, no texting your family, no news, no camera, no podcast, nothing.

00:44:41.740 Oh my gosh, that sounds like a dream come true.

00:44:44.460 Maybe it is just literally me.

00:44:47.440 Most Americans would say that's a non-starter.

00:44:49.760 We rely on our phones to navigate our life.

00:44:52.020 You know, what if I told you there was a company that you pay every single month that's taking

00:44:56.280 your money and using it to support causes that are actively undermining your values,

00:45:01.380 undermining the country?

00:45:02.780 Would you still feel comfortable picking that phone up and paying every single month?

00:45:06.320 Well, you don't have to.

00:45:07.860 I mean, if you switch, you can switch right now to Patriot Mobile.

00:45:12.060 This is a company that gives you the same great cell service.

00:45:14.540 They use the same cell towers as major carriers, so you get excellent coverage, performance.

00:45:20.280 They donate a portion of every dollar they make to pro-life causes, veterans, first responders,

00:45:27.140 organizations that defend religious freedom and constitutional rights.

00:45:30.240 They're out.

00:45:31.120 You're actually putting their time and their money where their heart is, where your heart is, really.

00:45:35.740 So start supporting a company that shares your values.

00:45:38.960 Use Patriot Mobile.

00:46:52.080 Hello, America.

00:46:53.680 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:46:55.200 We're so glad that you've tuned in today.

00:46:56.760 We've got a lot on our plate.

00:46:57.980 Chip Roy is joining us about the big, beautiful bill.

00:47:00.700 What the hell is this?

00:47:02.660 Oh, my gosh. 0.99

00:47:03.680 I'm so sick of this thing.

00:47:05.660 We're going to talk to him.

00:47:07.000 Where does he stand?

00:47:08.120 What should we know about it?

00:47:09.400 What's good?

00:47:09.880 What's bad?

00:47:10.400 And is it going to pass?

00:47:11.560 We go there in 60 seconds.

00:47:13.700 First, realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:47:16.680 The hard part, you know, of moving is not packing all the boxes.

00:47:19.820 It's not the truck rental or the forgotten spatula or the eight hours of where's the Wi-Fi?

00:47:25.420 When are they coming to connect us?

00:47:28.000 The hard part is finding the right real estate agent, somebody who just won't list your home,

00:47:32.420 but it will actually sell your home and sell it the right way.

00:47:35.200 You want somebody who knows the market, understands your timeline,

00:47:38.700 and isn't afraid to get their hands dirty when the negotiations get tough.

00:47:42.660 That's why I recommend realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:47:45.420 I recommend it because it's my company.

00:47:47.640 It's a service, a free service my brother and I created to connect you with the best agent in your area.

00:47:53.220 People who have been vetted for excellence, track record, and character.

00:47:57.400 You don't need to guess.

00:47:58.780 You don't need to hope your neighbor's cousin's friend is actually good at selling houses.

00:48:03.340 You just need to go to the website, tell them where you're moving, where you're moving from,

00:48:08.180 where you want to move to, and they'll connect you with somebody who has proven to deliver.

00:48:13.440 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:48:14.360 That's realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:48:16.720 Chip Roy is with us from the great state of Texas.

00:48:20.740 Chip is a congressman, and welcome to the program.

00:48:23.840 How are you, Chip?

00:48:24.440 Well, Glenn, I'm just continuing to work through and trying to deliver for the American people,

00:48:31.740 but it's getting hard.

00:48:32.520 I'm with you.

00:48:32.900 I'm tired of this bill right now.

00:48:35.040 Yeah, you're living the dream, brother.

00:48:36.660 You are just living.

00:48:37.760 Who doesn't want your job?

00:48:39.520 My gosh, what a glorious, glorious, fun-filled life you must live.

00:48:45.260 So tell me.

00:48:46.640 There's no sarcasm at all in what you're just saying.

00:48:48.900 None at all.

00:48:49.340 Tell me, has this thing gotten better or worse?

00:48:57.760 Unfortunately, Glenn, I believe it's gotten worse.

00:49:00.160 Now, we've not seen the final product out of the Senate.

00:49:02.920 We don't have the text.

00:49:04.140 We've got to review it.

00:49:05.600 I try to be level-headed through these things.

00:49:08.040 I have enormously strong and good friends in the administration

00:49:11.080 who, in good faith, want to see this pass,

00:49:14.440 just as you do, just as I do, just as the American people do.

00:49:17.340 They want to see us move forward legislation to make tax cuts permanent,

00:49:22.380 to deliver on the border funding that we need.

00:49:25.700 You know, Stephen Miller is a longtime friend I've known for 25 years.

00:49:29.020 Russ Vogt is a longtime friend I've known for 25 years.

00:49:32.080 We've been working together in the trenches for as long as I can remember.

00:49:35.560 We all want to deliver.

00:49:37.540 The problem is the swamp is going to swamp.

00:49:39.680 And right now we have a bill that, in my estimation, violates the House framework,

00:49:46.060 but more importantly, would add significantly to the deficits.

00:49:50.680 Now, we have differing views.

00:49:51.980 More than it did.

00:49:53.980 More than it did, right?

00:49:56.360 By quite a bit, in my view.

00:49:58.580 And, look, there's going to be a debate about this,

00:50:01.220 about tax cuts and revenues and all this stuff.

00:50:03.760 And I get it.

00:50:04.320 It's baselines, you know, CBO, all these different things.

00:50:08.160 I'm just telling you, Glenn, as objectively as I can.

00:50:13.120 I look at the math, and I look at how you factor in economic growth, which I'm doing,

00:50:18.300 factor in revenues and expenditures,

00:50:21.580 and what we're doing on mandatory spending, which is not enough.

00:50:26.100 The fact that we're only repealing half of the Green New scam, if we're lucky. 0.98

00:50:31.100 The fact that we're continuing to allow Medicaid to go to illegals

00:50:36.220 because of some arcane Senate rules.

00:50:38.540 The fact that we're continuing to allow Obamacare subsidies to fund transgender surgeries.

00:50:44.500 The fact that we are going to, in my estimation,

00:50:48.640 have probably a couple of trillion of deficit spending in the first four years,

00:50:53.180 which means you're going to have more interest,

00:50:55.660 which means it's going to stack up, all to get savings in the out five years.

00:51:00.600 That's not what you and I signed up for.

00:51:02.620 Now, I'm looking at this trying to say, okay, the president wants the tax cuts.

00:51:07.280 So do I.

00:51:08.260 The president wants borders.

00:51:10.640 So do I.

00:51:11.440 I think the president wants us to repeal the entirety of the Green New scam. 1.00

00:51:15.420 I think the president wants us to get good reforms.

00:51:18.300 Be careful.

00:51:19.220 Like, handle Medicaid appropriately and all of that for our American citizens

00:51:22.980 that are vulnerable or depend on it.

00:51:24.480 But we haven't delivered because the Senate has a bunch of people in it

00:51:29.180 who don't want to deliver, and they're hiding behind the parliamentarian,

00:51:32.700 and they're delivering as a subpar product that I didn't come to Washington to sign up for, Glenn.

00:51:38.440 All right, so let me ask you this.

00:51:39.980 They're hiding behind the parliamentarian.

00:51:41.800 Is that, I mean, they say there was a change in the bill because Medicare paid to illegals

00:51:52.560 and the parliamentarian said you've got to keep it in there, some arcane, you know, rule or whatever.

00:51:57.640 Couldn't the Senate Republicans just ignore that?

00:52:01.060 Is it fair to overrule the parliamentarian?

00:52:03.880 What?

00:52:04.980 They could overrule the parliamentarian.

00:52:07.140 They could make a choice if they wanted to do so.

00:52:09.440 Now, you know, then they'll say, well, some of these things take 60 votes and so forth.

00:52:13.400 If they want to address this, they can address it.

00:52:16.660 But the real issue here is that behind closed doors,

00:52:20.840 what you know is that there are senators who don't want to make the reforms,

00:52:24.960 don't want to make the changes.

00:52:26.820 They're making their own policy choices based on what they want, right?

00:52:33.160 You've got Lisa Murkowski right now.

00:52:35.620 Instead of wanting to reform Medicaid, she wants to get a special carve-out 0.99

00:52:41.100 for additional spending for people in Alaska.

00:52:45.200 You've got, you know, Tillis.

00:52:47.260 You've got others.

00:52:48.420 They want us to go the wrong direction when it comes to Medicaid reform.

00:52:53.860 And, Glenn, I've got to be honest.

00:52:55.780 How many times have you and I been on the phone over the last decade

00:52:58.220 talking about shutdown fights on discretionary spending?

00:53:01.280 Like every two years.

00:53:02.520 Oh, I know.

00:53:03.420 Countless times.

00:53:05.520 Every time we have one of those fights, the people in this town say,

00:53:09.400 Chip, you need to shut up because the real problem is mandatory spending.

00:53:14.680 It's Medicare, Social Security, Medicaid.

00:53:16.400 It's not fighting over all this stuff.

00:53:18.840 You're wasting our time.

00:53:20.660 I didn't think it was a waste of our time.

00:53:22.040 I didn't think we should be funding weaponized government.

00:53:24.160 I didn't think we should continue to, you know,

00:53:25.960 jack up spending for the alphabet soup of regulations killing America.

00:53:30.020 But I said, okay, guys, here we are.

00:53:32.260 We're going to do this reconciliation package.

00:53:34.980 We're going to reform Medicaid, right?

00:53:37.340 We had to fight like cats and dogs to get the reforms and the work requirements we got out of the House.

00:53:42.340 It was good, not great.

00:53:44.780 The Senate, now they're working through it, and they're fighting every inch.

00:53:48.720 And it got actually a little better in certain respects thanks to Rick Scott.

00:53:52.700 He's been fighting hard, Mike Lee, Ron Johnson.

00:53:55.300 We got a little bit more in what's called provider taxes.

00:53:58.420 But overall, we're not meeting the moment.

00:54:01.280 We're not getting enough Medicaid reform.

00:54:03.040 We're getting the watered-down stuff on illegals. 0.90

00:54:07.180 How about remittance taxes, Glenn?

00:54:09.200 We passed a measure in the House to tax money going from America, from people here illegally, back to their own countries.

00:54:16.700 The Senate watered it down and got rid of like two-thirds of it.

00:54:20.180 It's crazy.

00:54:20.740 Why?

00:54:21.260 Why?

00:54:21.680 Why?

00:54:22.220 Why?

00:54:22.420 Because they don't like the policies, Glenn.

00:54:26.900 Because here's the thing.

00:54:28.340 There were bankers, banks, who came in and said, guys, this would be really hard on us if we had to enforce this policy of money flowing from our banks and institutions to Mexico and to, you know, Colombia and places.

00:54:42.980 We really need to carve out so that banks aren't going to be attacked by this.

00:54:47.660 And then they go, but it would be way too burdensome on the people who come here.

00:54:51.720 And they're honest and they're working hard.

00:54:53.680 They want to send money to their families.

00:54:55.360 Look, you and I both have a heart as people of faith.

00:54:58.040 We want to say, hey, I get it.

00:55:00.580 You got an honest person here who's following the law.

00:55:02.700 They came here legally.

00:55:03.480 They want to send money back home to their country.

00:55:06.060 They can still do that.

00:55:07.840 They can still find a way to do that.

00:55:09.640 But we're taxing.

00:55:11.140 And the Senate said, no, we're not going to do it.

00:55:13.480 But the biggest thing at the end of the day, deficits go up.

00:55:17.000 And I didn't sign up for deficits to go up.

00:55:20.320 We're not doing it.

00:55:20.920 You're not going to vote for this.

00:55:22.260 You're not voting for this.

00:55:23.140 I cannot vote for this as it's currently structured.

00:55:26.660 If we can come to some agreement.

00:55:28.600 Look, and Glenn, this is important.

00:55:30.700 The president rightly wants us to find a way to get a bill done.

00:55:34.940 I get that, man.

00:55:36.060 I want to deliver. 0.99

00:55:37.020 For six months, I've been busting my butt. 0.63

00:55:39.060 I voted for a bill that came out of the House that I didn't like, that wasn't good enough. 0.94

00:55:42.540 But I thought it was an important step.

00:55:44.520 I worked to come up with a budget framework with Jody Arrington and others to figure out how to get this done and get it out of the House.

00:55:51.560 I think we made progress.

00:55:53.680 We did get Medicaid reforms that were good.

00:55:55.640 We did get some tightening down on the Green News scam when others didn't want to do it.

00:56:00.080 But we're now fighting a Senate that's watering down important stuff, and importantly, the way they concoct the tax and spend policies overall, I can't look at this in any way objectively without telling my voters, the people that sent me to Washington to represent them, the deficits will go up.

00:56:18.580 Now, last point.

00:56:19.680 The president and the administration will say, look, guys, don't worry about all that.

00:56:23.240 We'll make it up with tariffs, and we think higher economic growth.

00:56:27.360 Well, two things.

00:56:28.740 Number one, on the economic growth front, we assumed growth in our bill, Glenn.

00:56:34.720 We assumed 2.6% growth.

00:56:36.800 Now, you might say, well, gosh, we can do three or four.

00:56:39.200 Yeah, but we have to do a 10-year budget.

00:56:41.620 2.6% growth is a lot higher than what we've been experiencing the last two decades on average.

00:56:47.840 We picked a sweet spot of 2.6% growth.

00:56:50.400 It is true that if we have 4% growth for a decade, we will have much more revenue.

00:56:55.180 I hope that's true.

00:56:56.920 You hope that's true.

00:56:58.360 And if it is true, then great.

00:57:00.620 It's gravy that will give us money to buy down the debt and save money and get the deficits down further.

00:57:07.640 But I can't budget to 3.5% growth when we've been sitting at 2% growth.

00:57:13.120 It'd be irresponsible.

00:57:14.880 So I'm with you, Chip.

00:57:16.700 I'm with you.

00:57:17.380 And I've said this for a long time.

00:57:21.360 The Republicans are going to lose.

00:57:23.000 They are going to lose.

00:57:26.140 And they're going to lose because you're just not delivering for the American people what you promised you would.

00:57:32.700 Donald Trump seems to be.

00:57:34.360 You know, at least he's trying.

00:57:36.260 He's doing a lot of the things he promised he would do.

00:57:38.980 I don't see that happening with the Republicans.

00:57:40.960 And so, you know, I don't know what the midterm is going to look like.

00:57:47.500 But I will tell you this.

00:57:48.620 He has to have that tax cut.

00:57:51.320 He's got to have it.

00:57:52.840 If we don't get that tax cut, everything the Republicans have been trying to do or the Republican voters have wanted, it's over.

00:58:01.220 It's over.

00:58:01.820 Because the economy will spiral out of control without that tax cut.

00:58:06.320 Agree or disagree?

00:58:08.040 I do agree that we must deliver on the tax cut, and I believe we will.

00:58:12.180 When push comes to shove, there's no way that we're going to get to December and not provide an extension of the tax cuts that were so important in 2017.

00:58:22.340 Now, I want to remind everybody, the corporate rates were made permanent already, right?

00:58:28.240 What we're talking about dealing with is the expiration of certain personal tax issues, marginal rates, but also child tax credits, also the standard deduction, et cetera.

00:58:38.720 Now, I'm not sure how – you know, I've got different views on different ones of those policies.

00:58:43.700 But overall, we want to ensure that that money is staying in the pockets of the American people.

00:58:48.840 We have to deliver on that.

00:58:50.460 But I will tell you this, if we don't address the inflation tax, if we don't address the extent to which people are fleeing American bond markets because we're so irresponsible, then we're going to be doing a disservice to our kids and grandkids who can't afford a house.

00:59:06.840 They can't buy a house because the mortgage rates are too high.

00:59:09.120 They can't afford it now, Chip.

00:59:10.800 They can't afford it now.

00:59:14.000 So I think what we need to do – like, I'm prepared to go back to the drawing board today.

00:59:19.040 I don't need to go home tomorrow or the next day.

00:59:21.460 Let's just – let's get busy.

00:59:23.480 We've been working on it.

00:59:24.840 Let's tighten down some of the spending.

00:59:27.080 Let's tweak what we've been doing and get the tax policy done and get it set.

00:59:31.180 Let's go back to the House bill, for example, that we passed.

00:59:34.380 It was a good, solid bill.

00:59:35.580 We've got to get rid of some of these ridiculous things like Medicaid for illegal aliens, like pork that's going to Alaska, like specific giveaways.

00:59:50.060 And, you know, get rid of those things. 0.81

00:59:52.200 Go back to the House bill.

00:59:53.900 Make sure the Inflation Reduction Act is getting terminated and make sure this map adds up.

00:59:58.940 We'll deliver on the tax cuts, deliver on board, deliver for the president.

01:00:02.000 I'm prepared to do that, but I'm not going to swallow a crappy bill because the Senate tries to jam me with it before July 4th.

01:00:09.620 I have to tell you, I don't know how it is unpopular to say, no, we're not giving illegals any of Medicaid. 0.87

01:00:17.480 We're not.

01:00:17.960 I mean, do you remember – who was it that was in Congress when Barack Obama talked about Obamacare and he said, you lie, Joe Wilson, wasn't it?

01:00:26.340 And everybody had a cow. 0.97

01:00:27.980 Well, look at what we're doing now.

01:00:29.560 Look at what we're doing.

01:00:30.980 Well, look at what we're giving illegals. 1.00

01:00:32.760 No.

01:00:33.260 The answer is no, no, no, no, no.

01:00:35.320 And I don't understand how that is not so simple.

01:00:38.220 I don't understand any Republican that doesn't understand the Green New Deal.

01:00:43.740 No.

01:00:44.920 No.

01:00:46.080 USAID.

01:00:46.760 No.

01:00:47.600 Doge.

01:00:48.460 Cut it. 0.63

01:00:49.720 Why can't they see what – I just – there is – I mean, to tell you – Chip, I'm sorry.

01:00:56.360 I don't mean to take this out on you because you're one of the good guys.

01:00:58.620 You've been trying to do this.

01:01:00.140 We are in – we are in between a rock and a hard place.

01:01:03.540 The president has to have what the president needs to get the economy going.

01:01:07.520 We wait until January.

01:01:09.780 You're right on top of the midterms.

01:01:13.140 You haven't – the president is not turning this economy around fast enough because he 0.52

01:01:18.660 can't get anyone in Congress to do jack crap on anything. 0.99

01:01:24.120 You need to cut the frickin' spending and the waste and the garbage. 0.98

01:01:29.560 And I tell you, I am with Elon Musk 100%.

01:01:33.860 100%.

01:01:35.400 You are one of these weasel Republicans who don't – who just go along and just be like,

01:01:41.660 you know what, we're going to add another $5 or $6 trillion to our debt.

01:01:46.700 I'm done.

01:01:47.640 I'm done.

01:01:48.120 And Elon has said, I will – if it's the last thing I do, I will make sure none of

01:01:52.600 these people get reelected.

01:01:54.160 That's not going to be good.

01:01:55.540 That's not going to be good for the republic, let alone the Republican parties.

01:02:00.780 But you know what?

01:02:01.780 I've had enough.

01:02:02.680 I've had enough.

01:02:03.220 And I think the American people have too.

01:02:05.460 Glenn, I can just tell you this.

01:02:07.160 July 4th is obviously Friday, Independence Day, 249 years ago.

01:02:12.620 And we always celebrate it.

01:02:14.480 We celebrate their courage.

01:02:15.860 And we celebrate Lexington and Concord.

01:02:17.780 And we celebrate all that they stood for.

01:02:19.860 We celebrate the men that stormed the beaches in Normandy.

01:02:22.480 And we celebrate all of the great courage that our men and women in uniform have done

01:02:26.680 to fight to give us this country.

01:02:29.060 How can I say, no, sorry, I'm going to vote for this bill because there's going to be some

01:02:33.440 political pressure.

01:02:35.140 When I regale the boys at the Alamo sitting there taking bullets knowing they were going

01:02:40.500 to die or those that ran into a wall of bullets in Normandy.

01:02:43.440 Look, we have to deliver.

01:02:45.360 We have no choice.

01:02:46.560 We all agree on that.

01:02:48.180 I'm sure I'm going to get labeled, you know, any number of things that I'm not delivering

01:02:54.360 on the president's agenda, that I'm jamming up a bill.

01:02:56.880 Look, and I get it.

01:02:58.360 And I'm not going to get defensive about it.

01:03:00.340 The president wants his bill and he's right to want his bill.

01:03:03.040 But Congress has to deliver a bill worth sending him.

01:03:05.700 And I'm prepared to stay here until we do.

01:03:07.680 But I'm not going to vote for a bill because I'm being told I have to, because a bunch 0.99

01:03:12.240 of frickin losers who are swamp creatures who want pork and giveaways and don't have 0.99

01:03:17.280 the cojones to stand up and deliver for the American people and to actually reduce spending 1.00

01:03:22.920 and not hide behind the parliamentarian, not hide behind tax cuts. 0.97

01:03:26.520 They want to hide behind the tax cuts to tell me and the border to tell me you got to vote

01:03:31.000 for this bill and don't worry about the spending. 1.00

01:03:32.980 No, kiss my ass. 1.00

01:03:34.260 I'm going to stand up and fight for the border and the tax cuts and the spending cuts. 1.00

01:03:39.980 We've got to do it.

01:03:41.900 It was very reminiscent of Daniel Boone there for just a second.

01:03:46.580 It was or Davey.

01:03:47.820 I'm sorry, not Davey.

01:03:48.840 Davey Crockett, not Daniel Boone.

01:03:51.220 So thank you for that.

01:03:53.440 Chip, God bless.

01:03:55.040 Have a great holiday.

01:03:57.600 Stand firm in what you believe in and just keep fighting.

01:04:00.360 I appreciate the attitude that you have towards the president.

01:04:04.040 Give the president what he needs.

01:04:05.620 Fight for the president what he's asking for.

01:04:08.120 But you've got to fight the swamp at the same time.

01:04:10.720 Have to.

01:04:11.260 Have to.

01:04:11.820 Thank you, Chip.

01:04:12.420 Appreciate it.

01:06:12.620 We're going to have a bill?

01:06:13.300 I mean, this is the one thing that bothers me about all this.

01:06:15.700 This is just a fake deadline.

01:06:18.280 Like, this is just a day they made up.

01:06:20.460 It doesn't need to be done by July 4th.

01:06:22.160 Get it right.

01:06:22.680 Hang on just a second.

01:06:23.600 Hang on just a second.

01:06:24.560 Yeah.

01:06:24.920 I agree with that.

01:06:26.060 But we keep putting it.

01:06:27.700 We've got to have one by Valentine's Day.

01:06:29.720 We've got to have one.

01:06:30.840 We've got to have one by Memorial Day.

01:06:33.340 We've got to have one by July 4th.

01:06:35.140 We have to have one by, you know, Labor Day.

01:06:37.980 We have to have one by Christmas.

01:06:40.080 We have to have one.

01:06:42.100 That's the whole thing that you're, the point you're making.

01:06:44.860 But I would like to say we should put a timeline on it. 0.99

01:06:49.860 Get your ass in gear. 1.00

01:06:51.700 I want to see the president go up to Capitol Hill and kick ass. 1.00

01:06:56.660 And kick ass on the right people. 1.00

01:06:59.020 Kick ass on the people who, like him, are trying to save the country just as much as he is. 1.00

01:07:04.360 Kick ass on the right people. 1.00

01:07:06.300 I'd like to see that. 1.00

01:07:09.660 I'd like to see that.

01:07:10.580 I'd like to see that this week. 1.00

01:07:12.000 I'd like to see some fireworks, you know, in the halls of Congress coming from the president's mouth to their ass. 1.00

01:07:21.120 This is Glenn Beck. 0.99

01:07:24.680 Okay, let me tell you about the Berna Launcher.

01:07:29.840 You can live in a good neighborhood.

01:07:31.240 You can be careful.

01:07:32.100 You can do everything right and still find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time.

01:07:36.480 Sometimes bad things just happen.

01:07:38.140 And when they do, the difference between a close call and a tragedy may come down to one thing.

01:07:42.820 Are you ready?

01:07:44.180 Were you ready?

01:07:45.680 I carry a Berna Launcher and my wife carries a Berna Launcher.

01:07:48.540 I have one in the kids' cars because, you know, not because I'm looking for trouble, but because I'm not naive and neither is my family.

01:07:56.880 This is a non-lethal defense tool that helps stop a threat fast without taking a life and without having to live with the weight of that decision forever.

01:08:04.320 And now their new compact launcher, Berna, has made that protection even more practical.

01:08:10.200 It's smaller, more discreet, easier to carry, which means I'm much more likely to have it with me.

01:08:14.820 When I need it.

01:08:15.940 I hope I never do, but hope is not a strategy.

01:08:18.700 Preparedness is.

01:08:20.240 There is nothing more American than a Berna.

01:09:03.620 I'm glad you're here.

01:09:05.040 My, oh, my.

01:09:06.680 What a difference a day makes.

01:09:09.280 Especially if you work for Jaguar.

01:09:12.540 You're in trouble, huh?

01:09:14.200 I guess it was a bad idea to put all your eggs in that one electric car basket.

01:09:19.840 Now, they're blaming the tariffs from the president.

01:09:23.320 Although, I think they sold a total of, what, four cars in all of Europe. 0.95

01:09:29.560 Nobody wants your crappy electric cars. 0.97

01:09:32.280 Nobody wants it. 0.97

01:09:37.760 No.

01:09:39.020 Pretty much not anything else.

01:09:41.420 Maybe that, what is it, the Ramona?

01:09:44.480 What is that other, the truck that, I can't remember.

01:09:48.180 I see them now from time to time.

01:09:49.860 And they're kind of good looking.

01:09:52.740 You know what I'm talking about, Stu?

01:09:53.840 Electric truck?

01:09:54.800 The Rivian you're talking about?

01:09:55.780 Yeah.

01:09:56.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:09:57.360 Rivian.

01:09:57.700 I don't know if they're any good, but, you know, people are buying those.

01:10:01.600 That's all I see.

01:10:02.700 We're not going to buy your Jaguar electric.

01:10:06.940 No.

01:10:07.260 And it wasn't just the Jaguar, like, going electric.

01:10:10.120 It was that really ultra-woke ad campaign and the whole package, right?

01:10:15.180 It was the whole thing.

01:10:16.380 No.

01:10:17.140 That had nothing to do with it.

01:10:18.640 They were spot on the money with their clientele on that one.

01:10:21.860 Okay, good.

01:10:22.340 Good luck, Jaguar.

01:10:23.840 Good luck with that.

01:10:25.560 We have Justin Haskins on.

01:10:27.700 Now, he is our republic president.

01:10:29.780 He is also the editor-in-chief of StoppingSocialism.com.

01:10:34.400 Justin, I don't want you to be a downer here.

01:10:37.460 You can't be a downer.

01:10:38.380 I mean, it's the last day before the holiday for me, you know, and I just want to go out

01:10:45.080 thinking about, hey, we're close to having a communist as a mayor in New York, you know?

01:10:49.900 So let's keep it happy.

01:10:51.480 Let's keep it happy.

01:10:52.860 I don't know if that's possible.

01:10:54.040 I don't think that's possible.

01:10:56.640 I never agreed to this.

01:10:58.620 You're just changing the rules on me when I come on the show in front of millions of people?

01:11:02.980 I don't know.

01:11:03.400 That's not fair.

01:11:04.960 You know, I could say the exact same thing.

01:11:06.760 I never agreed to this.

01:11:08.060 I don't think that's possible.

01:11:09.320 And what I'd be talking about is having a communist as a mayor in New York City.

01:11:15.300 What the hell is wrong with us, man?

01:11:17.780 What is wrong with us? 0.56

01:11:20.160 Oh, there's so much wrong with us.

01:11:22.220 Yeah.

01:11:22.380 I know.

01:11:23.560 Can we talk a little bit about the steps the president has taken here to go full steam ahead

01:11:28.640 with AI?

01:11:29.800 Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

01:11:32.120 Yeah.

01:11:32.820 I went to see the movie F1 yesterday, and I didn't pay attention to this, and I don't

01:11:37.120 want to.

01:11:37.760 But go ahead.

01:11:39.460 This is actually great news.

01:11:41.100 I actually have great news for you, Glenn.

01:11:42.920 I think this is really good.

01:11:44.160 Really?

01:11:44.360 Um, yes, I really do think so.

01:11:48.120 The Trump administration is completely reversing course on everything that the Biden administration

01:11:54.020 did when it comes to their support for AI.

01:11:57.040 Um, and in some ways, artificial intelligence, there are a lot of threats, a lot of problems

01:12:02.620 that might come about with the AI revolution.

01:12:05.380 We talk about that many, many times.

01:12:07.800 Okay.

01:12:08.160 But let's put all of those scary things aside for just a minute and just talk about-

01:12:13.740 Let's pretend there is not a monster in the closet.

01:12:16.220 Oh, got it.

01:12:16.720 Okay.

01:12:17.160 I'm there.

01:12:17.720 I'm there.

01:12:18.080 Let's just agree that China's version of that monster, if they develop it first, would 1.00

01:12:25.660 be far worse for us than if America is the one creating that monster.

01:12:30.100 I think we can at least agree with that.

01:12:32.020 We don't want the Communist Party version of the monster.

01:12:34.220 Sure. 0.71

01:12:34.700 Okay.

01:12:35.100 Sure.

01:12:35.500 So what is the Trump administration doing to help, to help the United States win the

01:12:40.500 AI race with China?

01:12:41.760 Well, there's going to be a bunch of executive orders that are going to come out.

01:12:44.720 We think sometime later this month, there's been some leaks to various media sources like

01:12:50.560 the Wall Street Journal and Reuters and others where we're, we're now learning what's going

01:12:54.140 to be in these executive orders.

01:12:56.300 Basically what they're designed to do is make it possible for AI infrastructure, data centers,

01:13:02.680 all these essential things that are needed for America to win the AI race to be built 0.94

01:13:07.780 in the United States.

01:13:08.880 The Biden administration made those things a regulatory nightmare.

01:13:12.820 The Trump administration, what they're going to do is they're going to make it easier to

01:13:16.660 build power plants, especially for artificial intelligence and emerging technologies.

01:13:21.400 They're going to create a nationwide Clean Water Act permit because you need lots of water

01:13:27.920 to run data centers to help cool them so that we can streamline those, the approval process

01:13:35.980 for using water, which is actually a huge barrier to building these data centers.

01:13:42.400 They're going to give priority to shovel ready transmission projects. 0.99

01:13:45.940 So we're talking about building transmission lines related to AI infrastructure.

01:13:49.880 That's a huge, huge part of it that nobody ever talks about, but you can build power.

01:13:54.020 He told me when I was, go ahead, go ahead, don't finish.

01:13:57.920 No, I was just saying, you can build all the power centers you want, but if you don't get

01:14:00.540 the power from one place to where you're actually using it, it doesn't matter.

01:14:04.620 So you need these transmission lines.

01:14:07.220 He also said to me when we were in the White House that he was going to clear the, clear

01:14:12.600 the road for everybody that, you know, if you are one of these, one of these, you know,

01:14:18.080 server farms, companies are building it.

01:14:20.340 You can build your own nuclear power plant.

01:14:23.900 Is he doing that as well?

01:14:26.120 Yeah.

01:14:26.460 All we, we suspect, we don't have the final official text, but we suspect that all of

01:14:31.320 that is going to be included in it.

01:14:33.400 And that was a huge news story that no one paid attention to, by the way,

01:14:38.140 that interview that you had with Donald Trump.

01:14:40.940 I know.

01:14:41.480 Just amazing.

01:14:42.120 I thought that was like the, I thought that was like the biggest revelation in any presidential

01:14:47.400 interview for like 20 years.

01:14:50.640 I bet when he said that out loud, I'm like, oh my gosh, I can't believe he just said this

01:14:56.700 and nobody picked it up.

01:14:58.800 Nobody did.

01:14:59.620 It was crazy.

01:15:01.340 Yeah, I know.

01:15:02.620 It's, it's almost as though the mainstream media doesn't like you or something.

01:15:06.020 I don't know.

01:15:06.580 Yeah, no, I think, I don't think they want to be, I don't, I don't think they want to

01:15:10.640 be in trouble with all their green energy friends, you know, suddenly having to report

01:15:15.180 that nuclear power is maybe the greenest energy out there.

01:15:19.060 But anyway, go ahead.

01:15:21.160 100%.

01:15:21.640 I mean, nuclear energy is going to be the future of the AI revolution.

01:15:27.000 I really, I think the AI revolution is going to force nuclear energy to be the future of

01:15:31.700 America rather.

01:15:32.300 But another, another big part of this is federal land, the department of defense, department

01:15:37.580 of interior, they're going to open up federal land for use for AI infrastructure and other

01:15:43.680 things so that you don't have to worry about local regulatory burdens and state regulatory

01:15:48.620 agencies and all of that.

01:15:50.100 So in other words, we're going to build, we're going to build all this stuff right in the

01:15:53.320 middle, right on top.

01:15:54.920 You want to know why they're controlling the water.

01:15:56.400 They want to build it on top of old faithful.

01:15:59.820 That's what you're saying.

01:16:01.380 That's what you're saying.

01:16:02.180 They're just going to build them right in the middle of the national park and the national

01:16:05.660 forest.

01:16:06.180 And we're not going to be able to hunt or fish ever again.

01:16:08.640 I see what's happening here.

01:16:09.960 I do.

01:16:10.900 Well, I mean, it would reduce those crazy lines at all the national parks, I think.

01:16:15.440 I mean, maybe that's something.

01:16:17.580 I don't know.

01:16:19.240 It would.

01:16:20.100 It would slow down all of the people that are being, you know, trampled to death by buffalo

01:16:24.940 because they're trying to feed them sandwiches because they think they're zoo animals.

01:16:28.500 See, you're, you're, I've always said you're a glass half full kind of guy, Glenn.

01:16:34.620 You really are.

01:16:35.600 I've always said that.

01:16:36.680 That's me.

01:16:37.360 That's me. 1.00

01:16:38.280 Fewer deaths of stupid people. 1.00

01:16:41.340 Yeah. 1.00

01:16:41.820 So look, this is all great.

01:16:44.300 This is all great for America because we need energy, dramatic, huge, massive amounts of

01:16:50.520 energy in order to win the AI race.

01:16:53.380 And we have to win the AI race or else we're talking about a true existential threat to the

01:17:00.360 country.

01:17:00.820 If China wins the AI race, we are in massive trouble. 0.64

01:17:04.520 And the only way we're going to win it is if we build out AI infrastructure and we clear

01:17:09.820 all of the regulatory nonsense and we allow for domestic energy production, again, in the

01:17:14.820 United States with an all of the above approach.

01:17:17.560 And that is exactly what the Trump administration wants to do.

01:17:21.920 There's this incredible report that the MIT Technology Review published based on some

01:17:28.300 estimates from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

01:17:30.720 And what they found was that by 2028, this was their projection, by 2028, the power going

01:17:36.680 to AI-specific purposes will rise to between 165 and 326 terawatt hours per year.

01:17:44.460 That's more than all electricity used by U.S. data centers for all purposes.

01:17:49.580 And it's enough to power 22% of U.S. homes, 22% of U.S. homes.

01:17:54.620 This is by 2028.

01:17:55.620 So when you go forward another five, six, seven years and you start getting into the

01:18:01.380 2030s, massive amounts of power are going to be needed.

01:18:05.360 We're talking about, you know, for example, Google's former CEO, Eric Schmidt, says 99%

01:18:12.800 of all energy generation in this country will go to AI at some point in the future.

01:18:18.400 So we have to do this if we're going to win the AI race.

01:18:21.900 And that is exactly what the Trump administration is doing.

01:18:25.660 So massive step forward.

01:18:28.380 Where do we stand with the Blackburn bill where, you know, along with Ted Cruz, they're trying

01:18:35.760 to make sure that the states have the rights to do state regulation on AI.

01:18:41.500 Are we going to get that in or not?

01:18:43.500 My understanding is, I was looking at this before coming on to the show, so I have to

01:18:50.400 look into it further.

01:18:51.620 But my understanding is that the effort to kill state AI regulations in the big, beautiful

01:18:58.960 bill has died in the Senate, that they're not going to allow that to happen, which I

01:19:04.360 think is a very good thing.

01:19:06.260 But we got to look into that a little bit more because I think that just is breaking,

01:19:10.720 actually.

01:19:11.100 Uh, Justin, what do you have planned for the holiday?

01:19:17.460 What do I have planned for the holidays?

01:19:19.820 Wow.

01:19:20.360 I wasn't expecting that hard to explain.

01:19:21.940 Are you going to be campaigning for the, you're going to be campaigning for the New York

01:19:25.200 mayor, or?

01:19:27.980 I would love to campaign for the New York mayor.

01:19:30.980 I'm all for it.

01:19:32.380 I'll join you on that one.

01:19:33.560 I mean, look, what's going on in New York is, is so, it is, it is the product of decades

01:19:43.740 and decades and decades of extremism, a culture of extremism in nature, in the country's higher

01:19:52.520 educational institutions, but especially in New York, the public school system, all of

01:19:57.480 these left-wing propaganda outlets, many of which have been funded by the Chinese Communist

01:20:03.780 Party and others for, and other foreign agents, um, in the United States, breeding this, this 0.80

01:20:10.600 insanity.

01:20:11.360 And what we're seeing is the end result of it. 0.64

01:20:15.100 It's a full-blown communist.

01:20:17.780 This is the thing that's so crazy to me is they, they, we, we talk about a democratic socialist

01:20:22.640 or some people just call him a socialist or whatever, because he describes himself that

01:20:27.500 way.

01:20:27.880 I have done lots and lots of work on socialism.

01:20:30.440 The democratic socialists of America is a communist organization.

01:20:35.200 They're Marxist, the vast majority of them.

01:20:40.300 I, I, are you, I mean, I'm amazed again, we, we, we talked about all of this stuff in propaganda

01:20:47.520 war or last book that we did together.

01:20:49.980 We talked about, uh, Neville Singham.

01:20:53.120 We talked about this.

01:20:54.580 I mean, the Chinese propaganda war, everything that is happening right now.

01:20:58.460 I mean, I kind of feel like, Hey, you know, I guess America, you should have read the book

01:21:02.820 because here it is.

01:21:06.060 I feel the same way, Glenn.

01:21:09.980 I look, look, the, the book, the book outlined very specifically how Neville Singham, who is

01:21:17.220 this tech billionaire, who's in bed, a communist, whose wife is one of the founders of code pink 0.61

01:21:23.500 has been funneling massive amounts of money from the Chinese communist party.

01:21:28.460 And this doesn't just come from us.

01:21:30.280 The New York times has said this funding massive efforts in New York city and all over the country

01:21:37.060 in these pro-Palestinian groups, the more radical ones, um, including many of the groups that

01:21:42.580 are tied to, uh, mom, Donnie.

01:21:45.820 So for example, one of, one of the examples of this is there's an organization that's called

01:21:52.840 students for justice in Palestine.

01:21:55.580 And this is a radical left-wing group.

01:21:58.660 Uh, mom, Donnie actually created the chapter, the college chapter at when he was going to

01:22:04.680 college for this organization.

01:22:06.480 Okay.

01:22:06.920 He's going all the way back into his early twenties.

01:22:09.660 Well, then that national organization is been funded by Neville Singham, who is in bed with

01:22:15.780 the Chinese communist party.

01:22:17.580 And, and, and people have known this, uh, insiders have known this about Neville Singham.

01:22:22.120 You've been talking about him for a while.

01:22:23.660 We put all of this stuff in, in the book, propaganda wars, warning about how China is going to have 0.94

01:22:29.580 a significant impact, um, on politics in the United States, on our rights, on all kinds

01:22:37.360 of different issues through this, these radical campaigns that they're putting forward.

01:22:42.800 And mom, Donnie is the perfect example of that.

01:22:46.260 Not just because you have people campaigning for him and there's rioting in the streets and

01:22:51.740 all this other stuff, which is tied to Neville Singham, but also because they've been creating

01:22:55.980 these environments that breed someone like that.

01:22:59.760 That's the whole point.

01:23:00.780 And people who would vote for someone like that.

01:23:03.040 And that's why the propaganda wars matter so much.

01:23:06.940 Thank you so much, uh, Justin.

01:23:08.620 I appreciate it.

01:23:09.260 I, you know, I want to just take a giant chalkboard from the, you know, 2009, 2010 years where I

01:23:15.260 talked about how they were all going to work together.

01:23:17.020 I just, I just want to put a big magnet of his face on it because that's it.

01:23:22.820 That's exactly what I was talking about.

01:23:25.060 Here it is in one man.

01:23:27.940 There it is.

01:23:28.820 And, you know, if you haven't read propaganda wars, uh, is the last book that, uh, Justin

01:23:34.180 and I did together.

01:23:35.080 You need to read it.

01:23:36.780 Uh, I mean, everyone can tell you about what's just happened and what it all means maybe.

01:23:42.220 Um, but I pride myself in being able to, I shouldn't say that because it's not me.

01:23:48.240 I don't take pride in the Lord has given me a, uh, is, is given me an ability and he is

01:23:55.560 also, uh, prompted me at times to be able to tell you what's coming next.

01:24:02.080 Um, and that's what you need.

01:24:04.420 Everybody can tell you what just happened, read our books and listen to the programs and

01:24:09.360 we'll tell you what's coming next.

01:24:11.080 All right, sponsor this half hour is tunnel to towers.

01:24:13.660 When a service member first responder lays down their life in the line of duty, like

01:24:18.520 what happened in Iowa, I'm sorry, in Idaho, three firefighters, uh, were injured.

01:24:23.860 One is still in critical condition.

01:24:26.380 What about the family?

01:24:27.880 What happens after the headlines fade?

01:24:30.280 Everyone has to go back to living their lives.

01:24:33.060 That's where tunnel to towers steps in.

01:24:35.260 They pay off the mortgages of families of fallen heroes.

01:24:37.820 So when a young widow, uh, loses her husband, she doesn't have to worry about losing her 0.98

01:24:42.400 home or a child doesn't have to pack up and move in the middle of their grief.

01:24:45.980 They also build smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans, homes that, uh, they can live

01:24:51.940 in with dignity and, and, uh, autonomy and, and, and hope they're committed to never forgetting

01:24:58.880 nor leaving families behind.

01:25:01.540 That's what tunnel to towers does. 0.63

01:25:22.140 This is Glenn Beck.

01:25:36.300 Imagine waking up one morning and pouring a cup of coffee and sitting down to check your

01:25:39.920 email and you find out that someone else now owns your home, not because you sold it, not

01:25:46.000 because you missed a payment, but because some hacker halfway around the world forged your

01:25:50.560 name and filled in, uh, filed it, uh, you know, all in the wrong places for you.

01:25:56.340 Um, this is basically what happens when you've been screwed over with home title fraud.

01:26:01.240 It sounds kind of ridiculous, something out of a bad crime movie, except it's happening

01:26:05.900 right now to real people because your home's title, the document that proves you own your

01:26:09.800 home is stored online.

01:26:11.400 And if it's online, it can be stolen.

01:26:12.920 And once it is stolen, uh, good luck with that because these criminals can take out loans

01:26:17.520 against your home.

01:26:18.300 They can drain your equity and they can leave you with the bill.

01:26:21.760 And you may not even know it's happening until the foreclosure papers show up in your mailbox.

01:26:26.500 That's why I always talk about home title lock.

01:26:28.180 They monitor your title 24 sevens.

01:26:30.000 You don't have to worry about it.

01:26:31.180 Uh, everything that they do.

01:26:32.860 I mean, if it even looks suspicious, they alert you and make sure that they get it all

01:26:36.680 shut down.

01:26:37.780 You may occasionally forget where you parked.

01:26:39.960 That's fine.

01:26:40.580 But, uh, you prefer not to lose track of who owns your home.

01:26:43.980 This is just a basic homeowner's tip if you've never dealt with it before.

01:26:47.580 So try to avoid it.

01:26:49.620 Uh, AI technology right now is changing the world.

01:28:15.380 today.

01:28:15.640 Let me talk to you a little bit about a Berna said it before.

01:28:18.480 It's worth repeating.

01:28:41.480 I mean, I don't even put the pepper rounds.

01:28:42.980 It's like pepper rounds are for wusses.

01:28:45.900 I'm going for the tear gas.

01:28:47.600 And then also the kinetic rounds that just pack a punch.

01:28:51.620 Berna launcher can be taken anywhere, all 50 states.

01:30:08.660 Diffusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:30:11.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:30:18.520 Hello, America.

01:30:19.960 I want to talk to you a little bit about the truth and the courage to speak it

01:30:23.120 and the lies and the ignorance that surely follow.

01:30:26.620 The only forever war that I am for.

01:30:30.880 There is one that America should be engaged in, a forever war. 0.82

01:30:34.740 And I will explain to you in 60 seconds.

01:30:36.820 First, Adult Life is just one long mystery novel called Who Stole My Sleep?

01:30:43.060 What's Happening to Me?

01:30:44.600 The older you get, the less you sleep.

01:30:46.340 And it's like, come on, man.

01:30:47.900 Teenagers don't need it. 0.83

01:30:49.080 I need it right now.

01:30:50.360 I'm a tax-paying citizen.

01:30:52.340 You close your eyes and bam, your brain decides to hold a 2 a.m. inner dialogue

01:30:56.780 that you just can't stop.

01:30:58.520 You're like, okay, stop it, stop it, stop it.

01:31:00.360 And so you could take all kinds of drugs, which I tried in my 20s and 30s,

01:31:05.100 which really was not a good idea.

01:31:08.740 But now you can try something from the makers of Relief Factor.

01:31:12.740 They created Z Factor.

01:31:14.400 It is a non-habit-forming, natural sleep supplement designed to actually help you fall asleep.

01:31:21.700 Not lightly nap, not lay in bed thinking about taxes.

01:31:24.780 Real sleep with Z Factor.

01:31:26.980 You will fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling like a human being again.

01:31:31.900 Not an under-caffeinated gobbling.

01:31:33.920 The best part here is you don't need a prescription because it's all natural.

01:31:37.380 So I want you to go to relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com,

01:31:41.000 and get 1995 Z Factor, a 30-day supply.

01:31:45.840 Visit relieffactor.com or call 800-4-RELIEF.

01:31:48.920 800, the number 4, RELIEF.

01:31:50.880 249 years ago, I think it is tomorrow, right?

01:31:58.460 Is tomorrow the second or is it the first?

01:32:01.200 What day is it today?

01:32:03.640 Today is the first.

01:32:04.240 Tomorrow is the second.

01:32:04.640 So it was 249 years ago, tomorrow, that somebody sat alone in a one-room hotel room

01:32:15.840 and scratched out the words, when in the course of human events.

01:32:20.980 Those are the first six words of a document that is so dangerous, still today, so revolutionary.

01:32:28.700 It was whispered in those candlelit rooms by men who knew, knew that if I sign this document,

01:32:36.600 that's a death warrant. 0.73

01:32:38.060 I'm dead. 0.97

01:32:38.960 I'm dead.

01:32:40.680 When in the course of human events.

01:32:45.200 Shh.

01:32:47.060 Jefferson wrote them.

01:32:49.180 33 years old.

01:32:51.660 Adams would later say, you do well to revere Jefferson, but he didn't write alone, basically.

01:32:56.800 I was there too, and so has Ben Franklin.

01:33:00.140 The ideas were forged in the minds of men like Franklin, who was old enough to know better,

01:33:05.640 and Adams, who was stubborn enough not to care, and they weren't perfect men.

01:33:14.040 I love this about the left.

01:33:15.600 They try to make you think that, yo, you think they're perfect.

01:33:18.240 I don't think they were perfect.

01:33:20.560 I mean, Ben Franklin used to walk around naked in his house a lot.

01:33:25.400 That shows, I mean, for as smart as that guy was, it shows maybe he had a lack of mirrors,

01:33:30.740 but they weren't perfect.

01:33:32.920 They owned slaves.

01:33:33.780 They argued.

01:33:34.640 They compromised.

01:33:36.300 How does that make them different than us?

01:33:38.840 I mean, we should be able to relate to them.

01:33:44.240 What is it that we tolerate right now?

01:33:46.160 What is it that we compromise on?

01:33:47.940 What is it, what are our failures that future generations are going to go,

01:33:52.160 pfft, these people just didn't get it?

01:33:54.720 Perhaps what we should notice is that they, unlike most of us,

01:34:01.300 they were willing to gamble their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor for something

01:34:06.960 that had never, ever been done before.

01:34:10.740 Something entirely new.

01:34:12.480 The idea that rights don't come from a government or from a king or from a parliament.

01:34:20.940 They don't come from the majority voting.

01:34:23.780 Everyone has certain rights.

01:34:26.560 You know, for all these people who are, you know, going in Macy's and burning downtowns and then stealing clothing,

01:34:34.420 and they're like, go because I've been oppressed.

01:34:37.360 You can't.

01:34:38.080 I've got rights, you know.

01:34:40.080 Yeah.

01:34:40.880 Yeah.

01:34:42.020 You know who the first people were to articulate those rights?

01:34:45.380 You know the only country that actually has stood for those rights?

01:34:48.540 And we're imperfect.

01:34:51.300 That idea came from the founders that you say you hate.

01:34:58.100 But the actual rights come from God, which you dismiss.

01:35:04.560 Think of this.

01:35:06.680 Just ponder this for a second.

01:35:08.560 That all men are created equal.

01:35:11.940 That their rights are given to them by a creator.

01:35:16.340 It's not a political assertion.

01:35:19.020 That's a genius.

01:35:20.460 That's eternal truth.

01:35:24.100 That's theological dynamite.

01:35:26.900 Lobbed straight into the thrones of Europe. 0.93

01:35:31.100 All over the world.

01:35:32.440 It's still dynamite.

01:35:37.020 They knew what they were doing.

01:35:40.340 And I don't mean like, they knew what they were doing.

01:35:42.220 No, they knew that the British crown had the largest military force in the world.

01:35:48.540 And these guys, they were farmers.

01:35:51.940 They were printers.

01:35:52.920 They were lawyers.

01:35:54.380 They were a ragtag collection of intellectual and idealists facing down an empire where they said,

01:36:04.200 the sun never set on the British Empire.

01:36:07.460 Meaning, the colonialism was everywhere.

01:36:11.540 You could not escape England.

01:36:13.980 And yet, they declared it.

01:36:16.060 We're leaving without apology.

01:36:18.100 And they said that when a government becomes destructive of the ends of liberty, life, and the pursuit of happiness,

01:36:25.260 it's not only the right of the people, it's their duty to throw it off.

01:36:30.820 Wow.

01:36:32.180 And you know what's amazing?

01:36:33.540 That's not rebellion.

01:36:36.220 That's not revolution.

01:36:39.080 That's responsibility.

01:36:42.620 That kind of language today, that didn't have you flagged, shadowbanned, labeled an extremist.

01:36:48.920 In most countries, disappeared.

01:36:50.760 But that is the foundation of what we call America, the American experiment.

01:36:58.960 And it's just that, an experiment.

01:37:00.500 We didn't know if we could get it right, and we haven't gotten it right.

01:37:03.820 But isn't it worth experimenting?

01:37:05.740 Isn't it worth trying to get that concept right? 1.00

01:37:08.740 When you fail on that concept, you're like, that's a stupid idea. 0.99

01:37:12.120 That's not a stupid idea. 0.99

01:37:13.180 That's the greatest idea of all time.

01:37:14.800 Why are so many people willing to just quit?

01:37:20.700 The experiment is self-rule.

01:37:23.780 It's not perfect.

01:37:24.840 It never has been.

01:37:26.280 Slavery, Jim Crow, internment camps, assassinations.

01:37:29.860 My God, forgive us for what we have done.

01:37:34.300 But at the same time, what nation has done more to correct its own errors?

01:37:39.740 What people have shed more blood, not for conquest, but for freedom?

01:37:44.800 Twice in the last century, we crossed oceans, not to claim territory, but to liberate that territory.

01:37:52.720 Our sons and daughters fought and bled on foreign soil to push the darkness back,

01:37:58.420 to fight against Nazism and fascism and communism.

01:38:02.300 And here we are.

01:38:07.920 Here we are today.

01:38:09.980 After 249 years tomorrow of that experiment, standing at the lip of the very abyss those men feared.

01:38:20.000 A godless chaos rising in the east,

01:38:23.080 and a cold, atheistic utopia clawing at the foundations of the Western world.

01:38:32.300 Islamism and communism, two ideologies that have killed tens of millions of people, 0.99

01:38:38.140 now dressed all in new robes, selling old lies.

01:38:41.500 And we can't even teach a child where their rights come from.

01:38:49.040 We've replaced Jefferson and Adams with TikTok influencers and bureaucratic groupthink.

01:38:54.680 We're raising generations to not even know the truth about their own identity,

01:39:02.140 but to question their identity.

01:39:04.040 And they could be, oh, you're a funny, funny colored unicorn today.

01:39:08.840 What do you want to be tomorrow?

01:39:11.640 We don't teach them anything about truth or their inheritance, most importantly.

01:39:16.540 Their inheritance.

01:39:17.500 What good are hot dogs and fireworks if the soul of the nation is up for auction?

01:39:25.480 What is the meaning in 4th of July if we've forgotten the why,

01:39:33.040 if we don't even call it Independence Day anymore?

01:39:37.160 Most people don't even know who we fought against for independence.

01:39:41.800 They think we fought for independence.

01:39:44.140 Most people think we fought the South. 1.00

01:39:47.500 And yet we'll light the sparklers and blow our fingers off because we're just that stupid. 1.00

01:39:55.560 This Independence Day weekend, would you do me and yourself and your country a favor 1.00

01:40:03.100 and read the words out loud, speak the words out loud,

01:40:09.320 when in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bans

01:40:16.280 which have connected them with one another

01:40:18.000 and to assume among the powers of earth the separate but equal station

01:40:23.860 to which the laws of nature and nature's God entitle them.

01:40:29.100 A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires

01:40:32.020 that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

01:40:36.240 What are they saying?

01:40:40.920 Look, we want to be decent people.

01:40:44.740 We want to be decent people and we have to separate

01:40:47.660 but we believe it's only right that we tell you why we have to separate.

01:40:52.500 And it's not because of all the bad things you've done.

01:40:54.900 We'll get to those later.

01:40:56.140 It's because we're different and you don't understand.

01:40:58.920 You have been telling us all of these things we no longer believe in.

01:41:03.980 We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal

01:41:09.320 and they're endowed by their creator with certain unalienable, unchangeable rights.

01:41:14.820 And just among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

01:41:20.420 That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men 0.96

01:41:24.640 deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

01:41:28.500 My gosh, read those words and let your children hear

01:41:32.680 what thinking and courage sounds like.

01:41:37.300 That to secure these rights, I'm telling you,

01:41:40.880 the king who thinks that your government was given to you by God

01:41:45.780 and you are the ruler and you will tell everybody what to think,

01:41:49.660 what to do, what to buy, what to sell, what to tax, what not to tax,

01:41:53.740 who gets land, who doesn't get land.

01:41:56.200 No, no, no.

01:41:58.280 Governments are instituted among men 0.98

01:42:00.520 deriving their powers, their just powers

01:42:04.480 from the people.

01:42:06.740 And that government is only there established by those men

01:42:10.060 to protect the rights that God has given each of those men.

01:42:14.980 Let them feel the chill that runs down the spine

01:42:18.500 when Jefferson writes,

01:42:20.180 Governments are instituted among men deriving their just powers 0.97

01:42:24.060 from the consent of the government or from the governed.

01:42:27.960 Let them hear the words of responsibility.

01:42:32.860 What responsibility sounds like with courage and freedom?

01:42:39.640 That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these rights,

01:42:44.800 it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it

01:42:48.860 and to institute a new government,

01:42:52.180 laying its foundation on such principles

01:42:54.120 and organizing its powers in such form

01:42:56.280 as to them shall seem most likely

01:42:58.900 to affect their safety and happiness.

01:43:01.020 In other words,

01:43:01.700 you have the right,

01:43:03.180 you have the responsibility

01:43:04.180 to stop tyrants.

01:43:06.500 And if the government has gone bad

01:43:09.100 to throw that government off

01:43:10.420 but reconstitute a government

01:43:12.720 that will do a better job

01:43:15.060 at protecting those rights,

01:43:16.520 not to form a communist government,

01:43:18.700 not to do anything else,

01:43:20.140 but you want a new government?

01:43:22.320 Fine.

01:43:23.220 Let's find the way to make men more free. 1.00

01:43:27.620 This is not a metaphor.

01:43:29.520 This is a declaration of war

01:43:31.220 on tyranny in all of its forms.

01:43:33.580 I mean, I said yesterday,

01:43:36.220 freedom isn't free.

01:43:37.980 It was paid for by somebody's blood,

01:43:40.000 but you have to remember,

01:43:40.820 they paid for their freedom,

01:43:42.080 not for our freedom necessarily.

01:43:43.960 It comes a time we have to pay for our freedom

01:43:46.260 and God forbid that it comes down to blood,

01:43:49.100 but at least shake off the apathy.

01:43:54.360 We must renew this promise

01:43:58.060 of this experiment of America.

01:44:00.300 We need to fight for it as well

01:44:02.560 an out-of-control government

01:44:04.100 that seeks to rope us into forever wars

01:44:07.160 over and over again.

01:44:08.300 We're all against forever wars.

01:44:09.860 I'm against it.

01:44:10.620 I hate them.

01:44:12.240 But there is one forever war

01:44:14.300 that is required in a free society,

01:44:16.880 a different kind of forever war.

01:44:20.560 A war against ourselves,

01:44:22.120 a war against human nature in each of us.

01:44:24.880 Because of human nature,

01:44:26.120 we get fat, we get lazy,

01:44:27.760 we get tolerant of abuses.

01:44:29.180 Let your children hear you speak these words,

01:44:34.960 and when you speak them,

01:44:36.640 ponder them yourself.

01:44:38.920 Prudence indeed will dictate

01:44:41.060 that governments long established

01:44:43.080 should not be changed

01:44:44.400 for light and transient causes.

01:44:47.140 And accordingly,

01:44:48.200 all experience has shown

01:44:49.580 that mankind is more disposed to suffer

01:44:53.400 while the evils are sufferable

01:44:55.060 than to right themselves

01:44:56.480 by abolishing the forms

01:44:57.960 in which they're accustomed.

01:45:00.100 But when a long train of abuses

01:45:01.920 and usurptations

01:45:03.040 pursuing invariably the same object

01:45:06.120 invinces a design

01:45:07.280 to reduce them

01:45:08.300 under absolute despotism,

01:45:11.100 it's their right,

01:45:12.720 it's their duty

01:45:13.800 to throw off such government

01:45:15.540 and to provide new guards

01:45:16.980 for their future security.

01:45:19.100 In one paragraph,

01:45:20.700 they make the point twice,

01:45:22.260 and they tell us,

01:45:23.920 look, we've studied people,

01:45:25.660 we know you're going to get fat 0.99

01:45:27.280 and lazy and apathetic, 0.99

01:45:29.600 and you're not going to want 0.74

01:45:30.480 to do stuff for transient causes

01:45:32.460 because this is really not good.

01:45:35.120 But when push comes to shove

01:45:37.060 and everything is moving

01:45:38.720 towards absolute despotism,

01:45:41.620 absolute tyranny,

01:45:43.860 then you must stand up.

01:45:45.900 I ask you to ponder this,

01:45:50.980 this particular part

01:45:52.700 when a long train of abuses

01:45:54.040 and usurptations,

01:45:56.400 prudence will indeed dictate

01:45:58.100 that governments long established

01:45:59.420 should not be changed

01:46:00.100 for light and transient causes,

01:46:02.000 and accordingly,

01:46:02.720 all experience has shown

01:46:03.780 that mankind is more disposed

01:46:05.520 to suffer while the evils

01:46:06.780 are sufferer than to right themselves.

01:46:08.540 Aren't we exactly the same people

01:46:14.320 that their experience

01:46:15.980 was talking about?

01:46:17.940 Aren't we the people

01:46:19.420 that are more disposed to suffer

01:46:21.300 than to right ourselves

01:46:23.640 because we're too comfortable

01:46:25.180 or we're too afraid

01:46:26.240 just to stand up

01:46:27.280 and simply say no to lies?

01:46:32.380 No, there is a difference

01:46:34.380 between men and women.

01:46:36.020 No, communism is to be feared.

01:46:42.780 It's killed over 100 million people

01:46:45.500 in the last 100 years. 0.98

01:46:47.600 No, Muslims aren't bad. 0.97

01:46:50.360 Islamism is. 1.00

01:46:52.620 It's evil. 1.00

01:46:55.980 No, you can peacefully protest

01:46:59.080 any time, any place,

01:47:00.680 and I will fight to the death

01:47:02.720 for your right to do that.

01:47:03.880 But when you start burning cities

01:47:05.560 down to the ground,

01:47:06.840 no!

01:47:11.820 We're just a few days away,

01:47:14.240 and we mark our 249th birthday.

01:47:17.440 Maybe, just maybe,

01:47:19.180 this year,

01:47:20.300 can we stop asking

01:47:21.100 what America was

01:47:22.460 and start deciding

01:47:24.140 what America will be

01:47:25.920 before it just slips quietly

01:47:29.520 into history

01:47:30.220 in the dark of apathy

01:47:31.660 and ignorance

01:47:32.320 because the only thing

01:47:34.120 more dangerous

01:47:34.880 than tyranny

01:47:35.620 is the people

01:47:38.520 who have forgotten

01:47:39.220 what it took

01:47:39.980 to break its chains.

01:47:45.320 Every time you pay a bill,

01:47:46.700 you are casting a vote,

01:47:47.780 not on a ballot,

01:47:49.280 but with your money.

01:47:50.660 And if you're still using,

01:47:52.200 you know,

01:47:52.440 one of the big wireless companies,

01:47:53.800 chances are

01:47:54.300 your dollar is voting

01:47:55.320 for things you don't believe in,

01:47:56.820 like abortion,

01:47:58.700 CRT in schools,

01:48:00.100 radical political agendas,

01:48:01.720 the destruction

01:48:02.220 of traditional values.

01:48:04.160 I mean,

01:48:04.400 you can't always control

01:48:05.200 where your money goes,

01:48:06.140 but when it comes

01:48:06.780 to your phone bill,

01:48:07.720 I mean,

01:48:07.980 you absolutely can.

01:48:09.160 And Patriot Mobile

01:48:09.860 is the only Christian conservative

01:48:12.120 wireless provider

01:48:13.080 in America

01:48:13.700 and probably the world.

01:48:15.460 They use the same cell towers

01:48:17.180 as the major carriers,

01:48:18.360 so you're going to get

01:48:18.860 great coverage

01:48:19.480 and performance,

01:48:20.020 but they donate

01:48:21.240 a portion of every dollar

01:48:22.500 to pro-life causes

01:48:23.480 and religious freedom groups

01:48:24.740 and veterans

01:48:25.380 and first responders.

01:48:27.400 And they put their money

01:48:28.700 and their labor,

01:48:30.600 their time

01:48:31.280 where their mouth is.

01:48:32.540 They volunteer their time

01:48:34.320 for these things

01:48:34.960 and switching is easy.

01:48:36.040 You can keep your phone,

01:48:37.420 you can even keep your number

01:48:38.480 if you want.

01:48:39.320 Just stop funding

01:48:40.360 the things that are

01:48:41.240 trying to destroy us.

01:48:43.200 Stop funding the people

01:48:44.160 who hate what we stand for.

01:48:46.800 Every dollar is a vote

01:48:47.840 for something

01:48:48.780 one way or another.

01:48:50.460 Make your vote

01:48:51.440 and your dollar count today.

01:49:23.360 you know,

01:49:24.700 Ketanji Brown

01:49:25.360 didn't know what

01:49:26.220 didn't know

01:49:28.220 what a woman is. 1.00

01:49:30.460 She's not a biologist.

01:49:31.460 But maybe we should

01:49:31.880 I know she's not a biologist,

01:49:34.460 but maybe we should

01:49:35.460 maybe we should help

01:49:37.660 Ketanji

01:49:38.660 and send her 0.83

01:49:39.040 just a video

01:49:39.740 of the women,

01:49:40.820 the Swiss women's

01:49:41.780 soccer team

01:49:42.420 playing against

01:49:44.800 the 15-year-old boys.

01:49:46.040 Didn't work well.

01:49:49.240 Didn't work well.

01:49:49.640 I don't know.

01:49:49.980 Did you see this?

01:49:51.480 I didn't see this.

01:49:52.380 This is a new one

01:49:53.060 because this has happened

01:49:53.880 before.

01:49:54.240 This is a new one.

01:49:54.700 Wow.

01:49:55.100 No, no.

01:49:55.580 This is a new one.

01:49:56.540 This is a new one.

01:49:58.520 They had

01:49:59.280 this is the

01:50:01.620 EUFA

01:50:03.060 Women's Euro 0.82

01:50:04.260 competition

01:50:05.100 and

01:50:07.160 they decided

01:50:09.060 they were going to play

01:50:09.640 15-year-old boys

01:50:10.560 and they lost

01:50:11.400 and they lost.

01:50:12.280 How badly?

01:50:14.460 Let's see.

01:50:15.020 Do I have

01:50:15.880 because I mean

01:50:16.760 I was very,

01:50:17.500 very public.

01:50:18.420 I don't know

01:50:18.740 if I have

01:50:19.160 the final score

01:50:20.360 here.

01:50:21.740 Yeah.

01:50:22.300 Seven to one.

01:50:23.600 Seven.

01:50:24.660 Not even close.

01:50:25.140 Seven to one.

01:50:25.700 No.

01:50:25.940 Seven to one.

01:50:26.420 Yeah.

01:50:27.660 Not even close.

01:50:28.320 But the WNBA 0.88

01:50:29.380 should be paying

01:50:30.120 being paid

01:50:31.360 as much

01:50:31.800 as the NBA

01:50:33.400 for sure.

01:50:34.380 Oh, yeah.

01:50:34.700 Absolutely.

01:50:35.500 And you know what?

01:50:36.580 I think

01:50:37.180 Mike Tyson

01:50:38.120 fighting a woman 1.00

01:50:39.380 is totally fine.

01:50:41.560 It's totally fine.

01:50:42.740 What could go wrong there?

01:50:44.300 He's been accused

01:50:44.900 of worse,

01:50:45.340 but yeah,

01:50:46.100 it's true.

01:50:48.020 I mean in the ring.

01:50:49.400 I mean in the ring.

01:50:50.180 This is Glenn Beck.

01:50:53.880 All right.

01:50:54.460 Let me tell you

01:50:54.920 about real estate agents

01:50:55.880 I trust.

01:50:56.620 You know the drill.

01:50:57.520 Your real estate strategy,

01:50:58.960 if it starts with

01:50:59.920 the words,

01:51:00.820 you know,

01:51:01.060 my cousin,

01:51:02.080 Ronnie,

01:51:02.640 he just got his license.

01:51:04.260 I'm begging you,

01:51:04.960 stop.

01:51:05.500 Rethink.

01:51:06.140 Maybe rethink

01:51:06.820 your old life.

01:51:08.000 Selling your home

01:51:08.960 or buying one

01:51:10.000 is far too important

01:51:11.320 to hand it over

01:51:11.860 to somebody

01:51:12.300 just because,

01:51:13.040 you know,

01:51:13.400 they showed you

01:51:14.160 a PowerPoint

01:51:14.660 on their phone

01:51:15.440 at Thanksgiving.

01:51:16.640 You need a real pro

01:51:18.340 and this is why

01:51:19.060 I recommend

01:51:19.480 real estate agents

01:51:20.320 I trust.

01:51:20.940 This is my company.

01:51:21.900 That's why I recommend it,

01:51:22.920 of course,

01:51:23.300 but I actually believe

01:51:24.260 in my company.

01:51:24.660 I believe in all

01:51:25.380 of my sponsors

01:51:26.000 or I wouldn't tell you

01:51:27.040 about them,

01:51:27.440 but I'm really excited

01:51:28.640 about real estate agents

01:51:29.580 because this one

01:51:30.780 really has changed things.

01:51:32.760 For me,

01:51:33.380 my brother and I

01:51:34.960 started it.

01:51:35.720 I didn't know.

01:51:36.680 He didn't know either.

01:51:38.360 How do you hire

01:51:39.220 a real estate agent?

01:51:40.920 You know,

01:51:41.300 what are the best practices?

01:51:44.500 How do you know

01:51:45.140 what one is good?

01:51:46.580 Well,

01:51:46.760 we started working

01:51:47.300 with the 500 best

01:51:48.160 real estate agents

01:51:48.940 in the country

01:51:49.480 according to

01:51:49.940 the Wall Street Journal

01:51:50.600 and we learned from them

01:51:51.700 and then we started

01:51:52.260 finding those people

01:51:53.420 and we went out.

01:51:54.520 I mean,

01:51:54.720 we vet these people

01:51:55.580 six ways to Sunday

01:51:56.580 and then it's a free

01:51:57.620 service to you from me.

01:51:59.220 You just tell me

01:52:00.040 where you're moving

01:52:00.640 and where you're moving

01:52:01.880 to and from

01:52:02.540 and we'll find

01:52:03.420 the right real estate agent

01:52:04.480 if we have one

01:52:05.240 in your area.

01:52:06.320 We probably do.

01:52:31.580 A little window

01:52:32.580 popped up

01:52:33.440 saying free

01:52:34.760 but freedom

01:52:37.500 ain't what it used to be.

01:52:40.080 There's pieces of you

01:52:41.980 all over the coffee shop.

01:52:44.460 This song was inspired

01:52:45.900 by something

01:52:46.700 that happened

01:52:47.160 on the show

01:52:47.600 last week

01:52:48.420 and a listener

01:52:48.900 sent this in

01:52:49.800 and it's amazing.

01:52:52.700 I want to talk

01:52:53.100 to you about it here

01:52:53.660 in a few minutes

01:52:54.260 just before I leave.

01:52:55.740 Dr. Mark Skousen,

01:52:56.880 friend of the program,

01:52:57.720 friend of mine,

01:52:58.520 America's economist,

01:53:00.860 he's written a new book

01:53:02.680 on the greatest American

01:53:04.920 and the greatest American,

01:53:06.920 he says,

01:53:07.940 is Ben Franklin

01:53:08.640 and I tend to agree

01:53:10.020 with him.

01:53:10.500 He's at least

01:53:11.060 in the top five

01:53:12.320 greatest Americans.

01:53:14.540 Welcome to the program,

01:53:15.600 Mark.

01:53:15.720 How are you?

01:53:17.220 I'm doing well.

01:53:19.340 We're out here

01:53:20.740 in the Mediterranean Sea

01:53:22.060 right now

01:53:22.620 on a Forbes cruise

01:53:23.780 but isn't this

01:53:24.820 great technology

01:53:25.860 that even Ben Franklin

01:53:27.360 would love?

01:53:29.440 You know,

01:53:30.180 I don't think

01:53:30.900 people really understand

01:53:31.960 the genius

01:53:32.820 of Ben Franklin.

01:53:34.360 I mean,

01:53:34.760 there's this great

01:53:36.060 article

01:53:36.940 in the Times of London,

01:53:39.460 I don't remember when

01:53:40.280 but he was going back

01:53:41.520 to London,

01:53:42.100 he was going to

01:53:42.480 challenge the king

01:53:43.300 and he was going back

01:53:44.620 and they said,

01:53:45.600 don't let his boat

01:53:46.540 come in to dock

01:53:47.900 because he's been

01:53:49.300 working with electricity

01:53:50.380 and he's got a ray gun

01:53:51.880 and he's going to

01:53:52.940 vaporize,

01:53:54.020 you know,

01:53:54.840 all of London.

01:53:56.180 I mean,

01:53:56.560 he was,

01:53:57.580 he was the Elon Musk

01:54:00.380 of his day

01:54:01.320 but he was almost

01:54:02.700 more magical

01:54:03.700 because people

01:54:04.560 didn't understand it

01:54:05.700 back then.

01:54:07.300 What did you find

01:54:08.420 in writing this book

01:54:09.220 about Ben Franklin

01:54:10.000 that you think

01:54:10.580 most people

01:54:11.160 just don't know?

01:54:12.880 Well,

01:54:13.440 this is the thing,

01:54:14.460 so when I wrote

01:54:15.460 The Greatest American

01:54:17.020 I thought to myself,

01:54:18.880 everybody,

01:54:19.680 lots of books

01:54:20.500 have been written

01:54:21.000 on his biography,

01:54:22.880 so what I did

01:54:23.940 was I came up

01:54:25.360 with 80 chapters

01:54:26.720 on how he

01:54:28.780 is the most modern

01:54:30.240 of all the founders

01:54:31.800 and how he could

01:54:34.260 talk about

01:54:35.920 the modern issues

01:54:37.080 of today

01:54:37.660 whether it's trade

01:54:38.820 or taxes

01:54:40.080 or inflation

01:54:41.420 or war,

01:54:43.440 discrimination,

01:54:45.180 inequality.

01:54:46.520 I have a chapter

01:54:47.900 on each one

01:54:48.780 of these

01:54:49.240 in The Greatest American

01:54:50.820 and, you know,

01:54:51.920 he was the jack 0.82

01:54:52.680 of all trades

01:54:53.560 and the master

01:54:54.260 of all

01:54:55.040 on top of it.

01:54:56.200 So,

01:54:56.600 one of the things

01:54:57.760 I thought

01:54:58.360 would be really cool

01:54:59.460 is if you put

01:55:01.460 my book

01:55:02.200 on every coffee table

01:55:04.460 in America

01:55:05.300 and people

01:55:06.720 came in

01:55:07.360 to visit,

01:55:09.040 they would look

01:55:09.940 at this book

01:55:10.760 and there might

01:55:11.380 be an argument

01:55:12.120 as you say

01:55:13.160 as to who

01:55:13.760 is the greatest

01:55:14.440 American,

01:55:15.200 whether it's

01:55:15.520 George Washington

01:55:16.380 or Elon Musk

01:55:17.380 or what have you.

01:55:18.280 when they see

01:55:19.760 the picture

01:55:20.440 of Ben Franklin,

01:55:22.000 they sit there

01:55:22.900 and nod their head

01:55:24.380 and say,

01:55:25.660 wow,

01:55:25.960 this is the guy

01:55:26.860 I want to sit down

01:55:27.960 with and talk

01:55:29.620 to and have

01:55:31.640 a beer with

01:55:32.560 because if you sat

01:55:34.220 with some

01:55:35.100 of the other founders,

01:55:36.040 they would get

01:55:36.780 an argument

01:55:37.280 with you

01:55:37.900 or they would

01:55:38.520 refuse to answer

01:55:39.520 the question

01:55:40.320 or what have you.

01:55:41.480 But Franklin

01:55:42.060 was willing

01:55:42.760 to talk

01:55:43.600 to a janitor

01:55:45.220 as well

01:55:45.860 as the king

01:55:46.460 of France

01:55:47.120 and that's

01:55:48.060 pretty unique.

01:55:49.940 Yeah,

01:55:50.300 yeah,

01:55:50.500 he could.

01:55:51.100 He was an amazing guy.

01:55:53.420 So tell me,

01:55:54.160 in your research

01:55:55.200 of him,

01:55:55.820 you know,

01:55:56.260 you always hear

01:55:56.900 that,

01:55:57.240 oh,

01:55:57.320 Ben Franklin

01:55:57.820 was a notorious 0.97

01:55:58.740 womanizer 0.98

01:55:59.420 and everything else

01:56:00.480 and he abandoned

01:56:02.880 his wife,

01:56:03.880 I think Deborah,

01:56:04.640 was that her name?

01:56:06.340 Yes,

01:56:06.780 Deborah,

01:56:07.260 correct.

01:56:08.140 Did that,

01:56:09.200 what's true

01:56:10.180 and what's not true

01:56:11.000 about that?

01:56:12.720 So he certainly

01:56:14.380 was the most,

01:56:16.460 liberal-minded

01:56:18.600 when it came

01:56:19.300 to the sexual

01:56:19.940 revolution.

01:56:20.760 That's why I say

01:56:21.460 he was the most

01:56:21.920 modern of the founders

01:56:23.000 because he was

01:56:25.080 not prudish

01:56:25.920 like John

01:56:27.040 and Abigail Adams

01:56:28.240 who thought

01:56:28.920 he was a reprobate 0.97

01:56:31.280 and a sinner 0.98

01:56:32.200 and not a churchgoer

01:56:34.660 and stuff like that.

01:56:36.340 So yes,

01:56:37.060 he was,

01:56:39.120 the ladies loved him

01:56:40.760 and he loved the ladies.

01:56:42.100 There's no question

01:56:42.900 about that,

01:56:43.900 that he was a bit

01:56:44.500 of a playboy.

01:56:45.240 And in fact,

01:56:46.100 he even admits

01:56:46.940 in his autobiography

01:56:48.580 his errat

01:56:50.160 of having

01:56:51.000 an illegitimate

01:56:52.460 child,

01:56:53.360 William.

01:56:55.120 But then he settled

01:56:56.320 down,

01:56:56.800 he married Deborah

01:56:57.680 and yes,

01:56:59.200 Deborah and him,

01:57:00.480 they did separate

01:57:01.920 because,

01:57:03.840 and it was really

01:57:04.680 more her fault

01:57:05.740 than his

01:57:06.360 because when he

01:57:07.400 went to London

01:57:08.220 as the London agent,

01:57:09.460 she had

01:57:11.720 an extreme

01:57:12.660 aversion

01:57:13.380 to going

01:57:14.320 out on

01:57:15.520 the seas,

01:57:16.760 it was a dangerous

01:57:17.700 time period.

01:57:18.800 So it's kind of like

01:57:19.460 people don't like

01:57:20.300 to fly on airplanes

01:57:21.700 today.

01:57:22.320 So they did

01:57:23.380 grow apart,

01:57:24.240 there's no question

01:57:25.060 about that,

01:57:25.900 but they maintained

01:57:26.880 their love

01:57:28.440 for each other

01:57:29.340 and as a matter of fact,

01:57:30.680 when Franklin died,

01:57:31.840 he's buried

01:57:32.480 right next to Deborah.

01:57:33.900 So I think

01:57:34.980 that's an indication

01:57:36.120 of their love

01:57:38.320 and so forth,

01:57:38.860 but they were

01:57:39.320 very different

01:57:40.000 personalities.

01:57:41.060 She was very

01:57:41.900 focused on

01:57:43.920 more of the

01:57:45.200 home issues,

01:57:46.600 she was not

01:57:47.280 a public intellectual,

01:57:49.160 she would not

01:57:49.780 feel comfortable

01:57:50.600 in the same

01:57:52.220 conversations

01:57:54.400 that Franklin

01:57:55.160 would have

01:57:56.160 with scientists

01:57:56.900 and with public

01:57:58.560 figures and stuff

01:57:59.560 like that.

01:58:00.140 So they definitely

01:58:01.200 differed in their

01:58:02.060 personality.

01:58:04.100 The story

01:58:05.760 about his son

01:58:07.020 William is one

01:58:08.700 of the saddest

01:58:09.420 chapters.

01:58:10.200 I mean,

01:58:11.220 you know,

01:58:11.860 Thomas Paine

01:58:13.980 kind of looked

01:58:14.520 at him as a

01:58:15.400 father figure

01:58:16.180 and he,

01:58:17.560 you know,

01:58:17.780 Ben Franklin

01:58:18.200 did have a son

01:58:19.020 William,

01:58:19.420 as you said,

01:58:20.540 and they

01:58:22.480 had a really

01:58:24.920 bad falling out.

01:58:26.000 Can you quickly

01:58:26.460 tell that story?

01:58:28.600 Yeah,

01:58:28.840 so I have a

01:58:29.440 chapter on

01:58:30.540 that very

01:58:32.100 issue because

01:58:33.380 who were

01:58:35.000 his enemies

01:58:36.160 and he did

01:58:36.800 have a number

01:58:37.440 of enemies

01:58:37.980 including John

01:58:39.100 Adams at one

01:58:39.920 point.

01:58:40.840 They didn't get

01:58:41.420 along,

01:58:41.860 but in the

01:58:42.200 case of

01:58:42.700 William,

01:58:43.760 he,

01:58:44.540 Franklin,

01:58:45.160 arranged for

01:58:46.260 William to be

01:58:48.120 the governor

01:58:49.440 of New Jersey

01:58:50.260 and he

01:58:51.240 maintained his

01:58:52.220 loyalty.

01:58:53.560 He was a

01:58:54.060 loyalist,

01:58:55.160 Billy was,

01:58:55.940 throughout the

01:58:56.740 American Revolution

01:58:59.100 and at the

01:58:59.880 end of the

01:59:00.420 American Revolution

01:59:01.360 or during the

01:59:02.720 American Revolution,

01:59:04.200 Franklin writes

01:59:04.940 his son and

01:59:05.880 he said,

01:59:06.780 it's one thing

01:59:07.680 to,

01:59:08.540 we can differ

01:59:09.600 on various

01:59:10.440 issues,

01:59:11.020 but when you

01:59:12.540 actually raised

01:59:14.600 money,

01:59:15.800 raised armaments

01:59:17.680 to attack me,

01:59:20.680 this was beyond

01:59:22.780 the pale,

01:59:23.560 this is not

01:59:24.180 something that

01:59:24.840 you should have

01:59:25.460 done.

01:59:25.780 And then at the

01:59:26.780 end of his

01:59:27.380 letter he says,

01:59:28.320 this is a

01:59:29.680 disagreeable

01:59:30.540 subject,

01:59:31.380 I drop it.

01:59:32.480 So you can

01:59:33.020 feel that

01:59:33.800 emotion,

01:59:34.500 that anger.

01:59:35.500 And yes,

01:59:35.900 he removed

01:59:36.560 him from

01:59:37.060 his will.

01:59:39.640 So there

01:59:40.680 were,

01:59:41.640 you know,

01:59:41.880 Franklin got

01:59:42.640 along with

01:59:43.240 almost everyone.

01:59:44.580 I have a

01:59:44.920 whole chapter

01:59:45.520 on how to

01:59:46.100 deal in

01:59:47.260 The Greatest

01:59:47.760 American,

01:59:48.320 how to deal

01:59:49.040 with enemies

01:59:50.560 and how to

01:59:51.320 make your

01:59:51.760 enemies your

01:59:52.280 friends.

01:59:53.220 But this

01:59:53.720 was one

01:59:54.240 example where

01:59:55.220 he just

01:59:55.800 couldn't cross

01:59:56.580 over and

01:59:57.660 forgive him

01:59:58.300 for what

02:00:00.220 William had

02:00:01.560 done.

02:00:02.080 So it's a

02:00:02.920 tragedy,

02:00:03.760 just like you

02:00:04.280 say.

02:00:05.260 I think I

02:00:06.140 would have a

02:00:06.480 hard time doing

02:00:07.020 that too if my

02:00:07.880 son was raising

02:00:08.520 funds and

02:00:09.260 military against

02:00:11.240 me.

02:00:11.620 It would be

02:00:11.940 kind of hard

02:00:12.640 to forgive.

02:00:13.720 Mark, thank

02:00:14.280 you so much

02:00:14.680 for your work.

02:00:15.280 It's always

02:00:15.580 good to talk

02:00:16.120 to you.

02:00:16.680 The name of

02:00:17.320 the book is

02:00:18.700 by Mark

02:00:20.480 Skousen and

02:00:21.240 it is called

02:00:21.740 The Greatest

02:00:22.300 American.

02:00:22.740 It's all about

02:00:23.240 Ben Franklin.

02:00:23.940 If you don't

02:00:24.400 know anything

02:00:24.720 about Ben

02:00:25.120 Franklin,

02:00:25.440 you will fall

02:00:25.980 in love with

02:00:26.540 him.

02:00:26.940 You will

02:00:27.200 absolutely fall

02:00:28.060 in love with

02:00:28.460 him.

02:00:28.580 He was

02:00:28.900 fantastic.

02:00:31.280 Mark Skousen

02:00:32.020 is the author.

02:00:32.720 The name of

02:00:33.080 the book,

02:00:33.420 again,

02:00:33.920 The Greatest

02:00:34.720 American.

02:00:35.560 Back in just

02:00:36.040 a minute.

02:00:36.880 Let me tell you

02:00:37.380 about Relief

02:00:37.840 Factor.

02:00:38.360 What are you

02:00:38.640 planning to

02:00:39.120 get up to

02:00:39.480 this weekend?

02:00:40.840 Simple question,

02:00:41.720 friend texts

02:00:42.260 you, family

02:00:42.780 member calls,

02:00:43.520 hey, you

02:00:43.880 want to go

02:00:44.180 for a hike?

02:00:44.880 Hey, you

02:00:45.260 want to go

02:00:46.060 water skiing?

02:00:46.800 Want to hit

02:00:47.120 the range,

02:00:47.680 play a little

02:00:48.040 pickup?

02:00:49.100 Yeah, maybe.

02:00:51.420 Not this

02:00:52.080 weekend.

02:00:52.780 Not because you

02:00:53.280 don't want to,

02:00:53.880 but because maybe

02:00:54.420 you're thinking

02:00:54.900 about your

02:00:55.560 back or maybe

02:00:56.340 it's your

02:00:56.680 knees or the

02:00:57.280 fact that you'll

02:00:57.820 pay for it

02:00:58.280 tomorrow if you

02:00:58.820 say yes today.

02:01:00.260 And over time,

02:01:00.900 you start saying

02:01:01.400 no and no to

02:01:02.060 more plans and

02:01:03.020 start saying no to

02:01:45.080 This is Glenn Beck.

02:01:47.360 When I found out

02:01:56.860 my friend got a

02:01:57.660 great deal on a

02:01:58.640 wool coat from

02:01:59.260 Winners, I started

02:02:00.640 wondering, is every

02:02:02.380 fabulous item I see

02:02:03.580 from Winners?

02:02:04.660 Like that woman 1.00

02:02:05.440 over there with

02:02:06.120 the designer jeans.

02:02:07.400 Are those from 0.99

02:02:08.200 Winners?

02:02:08.920 Ooh, or those

02:02:09.880 beautiful gold

02:02:10.480 earrings?

02:02:11.380 Did she pay full 0.96

02:02:11.960 price?

02:02:12.740 Or that leather

02:02:13.180 tote?

02:02:13.740 Or that cashmere

02:02:14.340 sweater?

02:02:14.960 Or those knee-high

02:02:15.560 boots?

02:02:16.400 That dress?

02:02:17.020 That jacket?

02:02:17.860 Those shoes?

02:02:18.880 Is anyone paying

02:02:20.080 full price for

02:02:20.860 anything?

02:02:21.840 Stop wondering.

02:02:23.100 Start winning.

02:02:24.040 Winners.

02:02:24.620 Find fabulous for

02:02:25.660 less.

02:02:28.020 Use that down

02:02:30.200 with your latte

02:02:30.980 and dreams.

02:02:33.420 Click to connect

02:02:35.160 on that public

02:02:36.200 screen.

02:02:38.560 A little window

02:02:39.900 popped up

02:02:40.800 saying free.

02:02:43.420 But freedom

02:02:44.860 ain't what it

02:02:45.920 used to be.

02:02:47.020 There's pieces

02:02:48.380 of you

02:02:49.300 all over

02:02:50.360 the coffee

02:02:51.000 shine.

02:02:53.020 What?

02:02:53.280 That's where

02:02:53.800 we're long

02:02:54.760 and still

02:02:55.340 starting to be

02:02:56.400 cut.

02:02:56.780 So, this is a

02:02:58.400 weird, this is a

02:02:59.060 weird thing.

02:03:00.780 So, this song

02:03:01.860 comes from,

02:03:03.880 I think, a

02:03:05.420 commercial that I

02:03:06.280 was doing last

02:03:07.040 week.

02:03:07.660 And I was

02:03:08.280 talking about,

02:03:09.200 you know, how

02:03:09.820 you leave little

02:03:12.720 pieces of you here

02:03:13.640 and there and

02:03:14.180 something else.

02:03:14.920 and I said,

02:03:15.860 wow, somebody

02:03:16.420 should write this

02:03:17.540 into a song.

02:03:18.800 Well, listeners

02:03:20.020 started writing

02:03:20.700 this and, you

02:03:21.360 know, taking

02:03:21.740 AI and writing

02:03:22.940 into a song.

02:03:23.520 And then Chris

02:03:24.380 Brady, I think it

02:03:26.000 was Chris, it

02:03:26.480 may have been a

02:03:26.980 listener, but I

02:03:27.480 think it was

02:03:27.780 Chris, took

02:03:29.200 and put this

02:03:31.200 and made this.

02:03:33.180 Now, this is

02:03:33.840 100% AI.

02:03:35.860 Listen to this.

02:03:36.460 Would you know

02:03:38.920 that's AI?

02:03:40.740 I mean, without

02:03:41.660 prior knowledge,

02:03:43.540 no, I would.

02:03:44.660 No.

02:03:45.080 If I heard this

02:03:45.960 on, like, you

02:03:46.640 know, a country

02:03:47.760 station, I would.

02:03:49.320 I mean, other

02:03:49.880 than the lyrics

02:03:50.500 are a little

02:03:50.980 strange than

02:03:52.840 that.

02:03:53.060 Right, because it

02:03:53.680 came from, like,

02:03:54.760 I think I was

02:03:55.320 doing, like, a

02:03:55.820 Rough Greens

02:03:56.340 commercial and it

02:03:57.240 was doing it all

02:03:57.940 in tongue-in-cheek

02:03:58.900 and, you know,

02:04:00.280 and so, but, I

02:04:03.140 mean, listen to

02:04:03.660 that.

02:04:03.980 Now, here's the

02:04:04.780 problem, there's

02:04:06.040 two of these

02:04:06.540 songs.

02:04:06.800 Another one came

02:04:07.500 in, and

02:04:08.420 listen to this

02:04:08.940 one.

02:04:15.340 I like this one.

02:04:29.560 I like this one.

02:04:30.280 Look, her voice.

02:04:34.780 I mean, now, Chris

02:04:55.060 Brady, who has

02:04:56.100 run Glenbeck.com

02:04:57.460 since, like, I

02:04:58.300 don't know, 2000,

02:04:59.060 he is, he's

02:05:01.560 worked, he's

02:05:02.340 worked for me, I

02:05:03.300 think, longer than

02:05:04.160 anybody except for

02:05:05.120 he used to, and

02:05:07.360 I keep him locked

02:05:11.100 up in a cage in

02:05:12.460 Tampa Bay, because

02:05:14.620 he's a, he's a

02:05:16.020 very sarcastic guy,

02:05:17.500 very funny guy, and

02:05:21.280 when you let him

02:05:23.200 off a leash, God

02:05:24.860 only knows what

02:05:25.400 happens to your

02:05:26.020 whole company, you

02:05:27.040 know what I mean?

02:05:27.440 So, uh, he's, he's

02:05:30.180 now, I think he, is

02:05:31.560 he the one who

02:05:32.060 wrote this at

02:05:32.780 Glenbeck.com that I

02:05:33.900 have a dilemma

02:05:34.620 now?

02:05:35.120 Can you take me

02:05:36.440 through this?

02:05:37.000 Now, Glenn faces a

02:05:38.460 dilemma.

02:05:39.280 He is two

02:05:39.800 recordings of this

02:05:40.740 brand new song, but

02:05:41.640 can't decide which he

02:05:43.060 prefers.

02:05:44.460 Right.

02:05:44.860 That's where you

02:05:45.400 come in.

02:05:46.320 Listen to both

02:05:46.980 songs and vote in

02:05:47.940 the poll below at

02:05:49.040 Glenbeck.com.

02:05:50.640 So, you got to do

02:05:51.660 that.

02:05:51.940 Go vote.

02:05:53.400 Go vote.

02:05:53.880 Go vote.

02:05:55.100 This is for Chris

02:05:55.740 Brady.

02:05:56.140 So, Chris Brady can

02:05:57.040 say, no, I think, I

02:05:59.140 think I'm better than

02:05:59.960 the listener that sent

02:06:00.780 that one in.

02:06:01.520 Yeah.

02:06:02.080 I think that's what, I

02:06:02.740 think that's what he's

02:06:03.340 doing.

02:06:03.680 I think that I'm not

02:06:04.480 sure.

02:06:04.960 Probably.

02:06:05.520 That's usually what's

02:06:06.320 going on.

02:06:06.780 There's some contest

02:06:07.620 he's got in his mind.

02:06:09.220 Um, I, uh, there's

02:06:13.520 some, I love you,

02:06:15.080 Chris, but some blood

02:06:16.680 sport competition is

02:06:18.100 going on in his mind

02:06:19.140 that he's trying to

02:06:19.880 solve.

02:06:20.200 He is.

02:06:20.600 And he is probably

02:06:22.000 taking whoever sent

02:06:22.880 that second song in,

02:06:23.960 he's probably tracked

02:06:24.980 them down and he's

02:06:26.200 like mounting a

02:06:27.160 digital campaign

02:06:28.080 against them.

02:06:28.780 Oh, he's ruined.

02:06:29.640 He's already getting

02:06:30.200 the person.

02:06:30.680 The person's already

02:06:31.200 fired from their

02:06:31.880 whatever job they

02:06:32.640 had.

02:06:33.300 There's a, there's a

02:06:34.280 SWAT situation coming

02:06:35.740 later this afternoon.

02:06:37.000 No, it's my song

02:06:38.040 pieces of you.

02:06:38.840 That's better.

02:06:40.620 Uh, it is.

02:06:42.160 You, you said this

02:06:43.280 off the air just

02:06:44.100 somebody, uh, a few

02:06:45.280 minutes ago, but they,

02:06:46.340 they, did they do

02:06:47.100 some sort of testing

02:06:48.080 on, on a bunch of

02:06:49.260 songs with it?

02:06:50.580 So if you, you

02:06:51.860 know, we're in, we

02:06:52.600 used to be a music

02:06:53.300 radio, so you know

02:06:54.140 this, they used to

02:06:54.840 test music and they

02:06:55.820 would test, they're

02:06:56.360 called hook testing

02:06:57.220 and the, you know,

02:06:58.300 pieces of you and

02:07:00.100 it was better than

02:07:01.220 that, but they, they,

02:07:02.280 they take, take the

02:07:03.680 very, the essence of

02:07:04.720 the song, the hook

02:07:05.280 part of the song and

02:07:06.480 they run it and they

02:07:07.520 test it with, you

02:07:08.420 know, thousands of

02:07:09.140 people and then they

02:07:10.220 come up with, you

02:07:11.000 know, the hundred

02:07:11.540 best songs, you

02:07:12.740 know, for the

02:07:13.160 playlist and, uh,

02:07:15.100 they just did a

02:07:16.740 hundred songs.

02:07:17.560 I don't remember

02:07:18.140 exactly how many of

02:07:19.340 them were AI, but

02:07:20.780 let's say out of

02:07:21.640 a hundred, maybe

02:07:22.100 twenty-five of

02:07:22.880 them or whatever

02:07:23.340 and they tested

02:07:24.880 them all and the

02:07:26.860 top seven were AI

02:07:30.740 written, produced,

02:07:33.620 sung, 100% AI, the

02:07:37.280 top seven.

02:07:40.280 Do you remember

02:07:40.900 when we used to

02:07:41.620 say, oh, AI will

02:07:42.640 never be able to do

02:07:43.640 that because it

02:07:44.480 doesn't understand

02:07:45.220 love.

02:07:45.720 It doesn't

02:07:46.400 understand the

02:07:47.440 feeling of music.

02:07:48.900 Well, apparently it

02:07:49.740 does.

02:07:51.200 Apparently it does.

02:07:52.140 That's incredible.

02:07:52.780 And I think, especially

02:07:53.660 when you don't know,

02:07:54.380 it's only when you

02:07:55.680 know right now, at

02:07:57.920 least that you get

02:07:58.560 turned off by it.

02:07:59.440 I feel like when

02:08:00.060 people, like if

02:08:01.200 people are watching

02:08:02.080 a movie and they

02:08:02.860 realize it was a

02:08:03.560 hundred percent AI,

02:08:04.320 they'd be like, oh,

02:08:04.960 I don't want to watch

02:08:05.960 that or whatever.

02:08:07.340 Like there's some

02:08:08.320 pushback when

02:08:09.020 commercials come out

02:08:10.040 and they're AI and

02:08:11.100 you'll see every

02:08:12.120 comment under them

02:08:12.980 or like people going,

02:08:13.740 oh, this is AI slop

02:08:15.120 and they get all

02:08:15.720 angry about it.

02:08:16.900 But it's only

02:08:17.540 because they, you

02:08:18.500 know, when they

02:08:19.100 know it, they don't

02:08:20.380 like the fact that

02:08:21.340 it's AI.

02:08:22.000 But when they don't

02:08:23.140 know it, a lot of

02:08:23.800 times they just

02:08:24.640 choose that one

02:08:25.540 because they think

02:08:26.200 out of merit.

02:08:28.100 Man, I've only got a

02:08:29.120 couple of minutes

02:08:29.600 here and I'm in a

02:08:30.260 Sophie's choice of

02:08:31.240 which story to tell.

02:08:32.420 There's two great

02:08:32.940 AI stories to tell.

02:08:34.880 Let me tell the

02:08:36.040 future AI.

02:08:37.880 Right now, you're

02:08:38.900 saying that, you

02:08:40.120 know, you rejected,

02:08:42.460 but try this on

02:08:43.320 for size.

02:08:44.740 Let's say you

02:08:45.420 start watching a

02:08:46.100 movie on Netflix

02:08:46.740 and this is in the

02:08:49.000 future.

02:08:49.540 It is coming.

02:08:50.840 You're watching a

02:08:51.640 movie on Netflix or

02:08:52.520 Apple or whatever

02:08:53.220 and it is watching

02:08:54.960 you as well.

02:08:57.060 And it can see

02:08:58.660 your eyes.

02:08:59.340 It can see your

02:09:00.540 heart rate.

02:09:01.200 It can see your

02:09:01.760 blood pressure.

02:09:02.380 It can see everything.

02:09:03.520 Okay.

02:09:03.780 It knows when you're

02:09:04.980 engaged.

02:09:05.460 It's like Santa

02:09:06.120 knows when you're

02:09:06.720 asleep, knows when

02:09:07.620 you're wide awake.

02:09:09.140 And you're watching

02:09:10.640 it and your friend is

02:09:11.960 watching it on their

02:09:12.760 device someplace else.

02:09:14.440 You're going to get

02:09:15.240 two different movies

02:09:16.220 because AI eventually

02:09:17.920 will write it in real

02:09:19.460 time based on your

02:09:21.100 reaction, your blood

02:09:22.340 pressure, your

02:09:23.020 heartbeat, your

02:09:24.680 engagement, where

02:09:25.700 you're viewing the

02:09:26.660 screen.

02:09:27.040 It will notice what

02:09:28.380 you're noticing.

02:09:29.180 So let me just say

02:09:30.120 this.

02:09:30.460 So for guys, it'll

02:09:31.480 all be bikinis. 1.00

02:09:34.000 That's all it'll be.

02:09:36.080 Not much of a plot

02:09:37.360 either.

02:09:37.700 Probably just another

02:09:38.820 bikini movie.

02:09:39.960 But it will tailor make

02:09:42.280 it in real time to you.

02:09:45.700 With the same actors,

02:09:47.680 with the same basic plot,

02:09:49.940 but it will...

02:09:50.760 Everything.

02:09:51.740 But it will tailor it to

02:09:53.080 you.

02:09:53.640 So it'll all be

02:09:54.740 customized to you.

02:09:56.380 Isn't that incredible?

02:09:56.960 And for a while,

02:10:00.240 AI is going to destroy

02:10:04.200 a lot of people's jobs.

02:10:05.160 Just like when machines

02:10:06.540 started making clothing.

02:10:07.880 You know, everybody

02:10:08.300 wanted a machine-made

02:10:09.260 shirt because they were

02:10:09.920 all perfect.

02:10:10.580 They were all exactly

02:10:11.200 the same.

02:10:12.000 Then eventually, we got

02:10:13.420 to a place where we're

02:10:14.060 like, you know,

02:10:14.560 handmade really is much

02:10:15.800 better.

02:10:16.860 And handmade perfection,

02:10:18.720 that is the best.

02:10:20.260 We're just in the

02:10:21.040 machines making it first,

02:10:22.700 so it's better.

02:10:23.600 But it'll flip back

02:10:24.580 around.

02:10:24.920 rot it beyond.

02:10:27.200 And it'll flip back

02:10:27.680 around.

02:10:28.080 Okay,

02:10:28.200 so we're just going to

02:10:29.200 go around.
