00:07:09.120Do you really, I mean, does it matter what's happening to you?
00:07:14.760Does it matter what's happening on the other side of the world?
00:07:19.660Largely, it really has never mattered.
00:07:21.560I mean, I could make a case that it does because it has local impact.
00:07:25.500But really, essentially what I'm trying to say is it matters more what happens in your backyard than what happens over in the Strait of Hormuz.
00:07:35.140Now, what happens at the Strait of Hormuz can impact and affect your backyard and your gas tank and your wallet and everything else.
00:07:41.120So, yes, all of these things do have some sense of mattering.
00:07:46.020But it really, in essence, do they really add up?
00:07:51.420we were never meant to take in all of this information and yet we are so when we take
00:07:57.500in information on a daily basis when it comes from trump or cnn or ms dow or whatever they're
00:08:03.140calling it dnc 13 whatever they're calling it now uh it it's you have to take it all with a grain
00:08:10.360of salt so today as we hit the 60 day mark of the mou no matter it's whether it's trump or
00:08:19.860whether it's coming out of Anderson Cooper's mouth.
00:08:21.620Look, we've got to make sure that we take this stuff appropriately.
00:08:26.880And as I deal with all the information, maybe it's just a coping mechanism,
00:08:31.200but it's just a way that I've found to apply truth, logic, common sense,
00:08:35.180and above all, wisdom to the things that I'm hearing.
00:08:40.660I'm going to tell you how to dig into this and tell you how I do it
00:08:44.960and what I would recommend you do as well,
00:08:47.380Because it's not just what you hear on the radio now.
00:14:28.640But that's just a piece of the puzzle.
00:14:33.660We're also hearing inside about a back channel with the Iran Revolutionary Guard, the RGC, out there that's been taking place.
00:14:43.040We've got, see, even inside Iran, we've got this weird thing that's happening where you wonder who they're talking to.
00:14:50.020Because Iran comes out and says one thing and then in public and then may say another thing in private.
00:14:54.440And then there are other forces or factions or people left over in the IRGC or wherever they are that may, in fact, have a whole other idea of what they like to see done.
00:15:08.060And all of it, all of it is, all of it, it really, it amounts to lots of chaos, lots of confusion.
00:15:17.240And unfortunately, at the end of the day, it makes, because of the fog of war, makes things much more difficult, makes things much tougher, not only for the president, but for you and me, trying to figure out, trying to decide what in the heck, what is going on?
00:15:34.860so i'd like to give you a little bit of my uh technique my strategy of dealing with all of this
00:15:42.440um and give you sort of the the the way that i do it on a daily basis i don't know
00:15:48.420uh exactly how how glenn handles it but i i i will give you the way i've been dealing with it
00:15:55.000and the way that i i just because the sheer the nature of the sheer volume of everything that's

00:22:59.560all right let's talk elections and their consequences
00:23:24.320Justin Barclay in for Glenn today on the Glenn Beck program.
00:23:31.520You know, that's one thing to win an election, you know, because the campaigning is all, you know, that's all one piece.
00:23:38.400The other piece is you got to win the election once they count all the votes.
00:28:10.060This story is, again, just another, it's the latest,
00:28:13.900but you've seen this and covered with the Gateway Pundit over and over again.
00:28:18.520since 2020 and even before but what are we supposed to do with all this
00:28:24.660well you know that's a good question i think you know obviously voter id is a big part of it um
00:28:33.740you know if you're not asking for voter id for p in order for people to vote i mean it's it's
00:28:40.940ridiculous to think that our elections are secure they can't be secure so that's that's the first
00:28:46.040And then, you know, it's been my experience that mail-in voting, absentee voting, early voting, all of these additional practices that have been put in place, especially since COVID, have really created just an open door for fraudulent voting.
00:29:05.900I mean, it's really easy, at least in the state of Michigan where I live, for people to cheat elections.
00:29:16.040And we saw that with the GBI strategy story that I broke it in August of 2023, the fraudulent voter registration group that was operating in Michigan that was being funded by then Senator or candidate Senator Gary Peters and candidate Joe Biden.
00:29:34.740this is a democratic funded organization that was obtaining tens of thousands of fraudulent
00:29:42.520voter registrations and then putting them into our system and you know really a big part of the
00:29:48.600problem is that not only does the mainstream media not cover these stories but then when we
00:29:54.920cover these stories they immediately come out and try and find a reason why they're not legitimate
00:29:59.800it, which is what you're talking about in Minnesota. So all of a sudden the story becomes,
00:30:04.320um, the fact that James O'Keefe used the name of a voter in Minnesota. Really, you know what,
00:30:10.480there's no way to prove that that's, that's the person that they were talking about. He could
00:30:15.000have made up a name and it just happened to be the name of that person. We don't know,
00:30:18.620but that's not the story. I mean, people should be outraged to see a voter coming in with no
00:30:24.940voter id and then vouching for eight voters who also don't have voter id you know it's interesting
00:30:32.040patty mcmurray with the gateway pundit um you can follow her on x by the way patty loves truth
00:30:37.120patty i i i look at this and you just mentioned gbi strategies but the president just mentioned
00:30:43.080this in fact when he he came out and laid out the case for what what these issues are declassified
00:30:49.440a lot of these documents he mentioned that case uh specifically now it has roots here in muskegon
00:30:55.760michigan where i'm from but that case in fact uh it it spans the entire country this was happening
00:31:03.060this operation was happening all across the country yeah absolutely it was happening in
00:31:09.120multiple states which is which is really why um apparently the fbi came in and took over the
00:31:15.820investigation in michigan i mean it was a statewide investigation and you know like i
00:31:21.140mentioned earlier about it's not just the media it's also um you know people in in the democrat
00:31:27.020party and unfortunately that's just what it is um you know that when when we broke this story we
00:31:32.380first broke this story dana nestle our attorney general here in michigan immediately came out
00:31:38.080and tried to discredit the reporting um and her press secretary at the time said you know well
00:31:44.920you know, there's no evidence that even though tens of thousands, at least in Muskegon,
00:31:51.440application or false registrations were turned in, that it had any effect on the election.
00:31:57.600And they focused really on Muskegon in their response. They didn't talk about was that in the
00:32:04.980police, the Michigan State Police discovered that there were 68 additional cities for these
00:32:10.600packages were being mailed to throughout Michigan.
00:35:22.900A few years ago when the opportunity came to challenge Roe vs. Wade,
00:35:26.420The Alliance Defending Freedom was right there in the thick of it.
00:35:29.920Just a few months ago, they won a major free speech case at the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of a Christian counselor, Kaylee Childs.
00:35:36.940And they continue to take on the big business of our time, defending women's sports, protecting parents, pushing back against the expansion of mail-order abortion drugs, and standing up for God's design for men and women.
00:35:48.880These battles don't end when the headlines fade.
00:35:51.420They continue in the courtrooms and the legislature and the communities all across our country.
00:35:55.640That's why Alliance Defending Freedom relies on people like you.
00:36:00.020Your support helps them defend the God-given rights and freedoms
00:36:02.980that so many Americans have simply taken for granted until now.
00:36:06.960For a limited time, every dollar you give to ADF will be matched.
00:36:10.360That means $25 becomes $50, $50 becomes $100,
00:36:13.400but only while the matching funds last.
00:36:15.140So go to joinadf.com slash Beck or text Beck at 83848.
00:37:28.400And to be honest, I think it confuses most Americans because a large percentage, over 80 percent of all Americans agree with the president wanting to have forcing ID, forcing people to use ID in the voting places.
00:37:45.380And, you know, you talked about the solution.
00:37:48.080You know, the solution really is tightening up the voter rolls.
00:37:51.060That's where we're having a real problem. That's where we have all these voters that don't belong in the voter rolls.
00:37:56.680That's what makes it easy to cheat. It's also people that are coming in, obviously, and not being American citizens and voting.
00:38:04.040That's a real problem, which is what James O'Keefe was highlighting in his report.
00:38:08.940But, you know, the problem is, and people don't, you know, people don't really 100 percent understand how serious it is to have voter rolls that are mismanaged.1.00
00:38:17.820You know, Jocelyn Benson, the Department of Justice is demanding the voter rolls so that they can clean them off and get rid of the dead voters, the non-citizens.1.00
00:38:31.240That should make every single citizen in the state of Michigan really question her integrity and her intentions.1.00
00:38:38.660Why she wouldn't want to have her voter rolls cleaned off and have non-citizens taken off the voter rolls should really make everyone question her.1.00
00:38:47.820and she's running for governor and she'll be running her own election.
00:38:51.300But, you know, for instance, if somebody registers a non-citizen,
00:38:54.960it puts that person in danger of being denied citizenship.
00:39:01.000And that, you know, recently happened.
00:39:02.560I spoke with a woman whose husband came here from Romania,
00:39:05.120and all of a sudden they got a notification in the mail
00:39:09.480asking if he wanted to fill out his absentee ballot.
00:39:14.120Somebody had registered him to vote, so he reported it.
00:39:16.660And when he reported it, his file was flagged.
00:39:20.580And then they were, his whole entire citizenship case, which he had been working on for years, was put in jeopardy.
00:39:27.660So people don't understand how serious it is.
00:39:30.680If a homeless person, if somebody votes for a homeless person, and, you know, I'm working, we have all the documents in the 2020 election, as you know, in Detroit.
00:39:39.420And we're saying just incredible things as we go through.
00:39:42.620But one of the things that I've noticed is the frequency of turnover at these homeless shelters and the number of people that are being registered.
00:39:52.880And in Michigan, you can literally register from a park bench.
00:39:56.760You don't have to have, if you say that you sleep on that park bench, that can be your home where you register.
00:40:02.080You don't have to have a permanent residence.
00:40:06.880So these things are real problems, you know.
00:40:09.020And if somebody registers to vote and votes for a homeless person, that person can be charged for a crime.
00:40:14.200So they're putting a homeless person in jeopardy when that happens.
00:40:17.380I mean, there are a million ways that people can be put in jeopardy of committing crimes because other people are using their names to register them to vote.
00:40:25.340I think that's a real problem that people don't understand.
00:40:27.960I mean, it's not just that they're stealing elections through fake registrations, but they're also putting people in legal jeopardy when they use their names to vote.
00:40:37.820patty mcmurray is with the gateway pundit you can follow her there and also uh patty loves
00:40:45.260truth over on x patty it's always a pleasure thank you for your hard work anything uh quickly
00:40:50.800before we let you go that you're working on we ought to keep an eye out for absolutely the um
00:40:56.440as i mentioned we have almost one million documents in the 2020 election in detroit that
00:41:00.360were foyed we have a team of over 100 people that are going through those every single day
00:45:18.060He's a Republican, and there's a, like I said, there's a stack of them, of candidates in this race.
00:45:24.400This is the race to replace the very popular Byron Donalds.
00:45:27.580The question I have here is there are a lot of out-of-towners and former members of Congress from, like, other districts that have relocated to that area just to run.
00:45:37.640And you've got folks like, oh, I actually won't even say their names.
00:45:42.460But they think, I guess, they're running because they think it's a guaranteed seat, and I'm not really sure there's another district like it in the country with so many former elected officials out there from out of state relocating to try to run for the seat, whether it's power, whatever it is that they're after.
00:45:59.340And I'm just wondering, how often is it we see times like this where we end up with rhinos in places where we shouldn't?
00:46:05.940like i said one local conservative candidate born and raised there in southwest florida jim
00:46:11.460schwartzel is on with us now jim thank you so much for being here with us and again as i mentioned
00:46:15.840uh we're actually on the radio right now it's uh with jim on his radio station jim welcome in
00:46:21.840that's right justin um you're uh listening to 92.5 fox news in southwest florida
00:46:28.500and uh it is one of the most conservative areas of the country i even have another radio station
00:46:34.480we call trump country so and it's country music so it's uh it's uh we're a bastion down here of
00:46:41.620red and uh we have a whole bunch of blue state rhino uh candidates that have been failures in
00:46:47.780other states that have uh relocated here uh amazingly enough to try to run for congress
00:46:54.120what do you think that is they think it's because there's maybe it's a shoe-in it's such a red
00:46:59.020area that uh that that well if they win they'll obviously uh win the primary they'll obviously
00:47:05.500win the general is that is that what it is correct and we have a simple majority in florida so you
00:47:10.700don't there's no runoff and so these people think that they can come down here and try to buy one
00:47:16.880out of five votes and because 20 could win this election uh for byron donald's in 2020 he won with
00:47:24.58020.7 percent of the vote wow yeah i've seen this in other cases uh in places like michigan as well
00:47:32.940gem where you you you can see and they they easily do uh split that vote and there's several candidates
00:47:41.500in fact some of them are even a little kookier than others you know running as far out uh as
00:47:47.220they can um and then what happens is because we as conservatives we don't really necessarily know
00:47:53.920And it is like, you know, Democrats, they all sort of jump in line with each other.
00:47:57.660But with conservatives, it's kind of like herding cats.
00:48:01.260We all kind of know where we want to go.
00:48:03.900But that does split a vote in a primary like this, where instead of consolidating behind one candidate who you could you can be assured if they win is going to be your conservative representative.
00:48:16.260A lot of times we end up with people like, how do you get a Mitt Romney in a place like Utah?
00:48:22.580Yeah. Well, you know, I'm the local voice. I was born and raised here. I built my businesses here. I own radio and TV and a publishing company in Southwest Florida. And I mean, this is a beautiful place. I married my high school sweetheart, raised my kids. I serve this community. I have this community's best interest at heart. I've been here my entire life.
00:48:42.520we will keep this red and keep it local and we'll fight for southwest florida
00:48:47.100and we're not going to let someone just move in uh from someplace else uh one of my one of my
00:48:53.540opponents they were at uh one of these uh republican meetings and someone asked him a
00:48:57.520question you know can uh do you know the county commissioner oh yes i know him and the lady goes
00:49:03.640well what's his name you know and it's like she couldn't name it and she couldn't name any school
00:49:09.160board member she couldn't name any mayor i mean it was just these people are so new to southwest
00:49:15.200florida that they don't even know the directions to the beaches it it is unthinkable uh carpet
00:49:22.960baggers that's the name that uh we ought to bring that back in fact look i know that folks in
00:49:30.620southwest florida probably a lot of them see through some of this i would imagine what are
00:49:35.280you hearing from people on the ground? Oh, the groundswell is real. We feel it. I feel I feel
00:49:41.400the energy of the community behind me. And, you know, I mean, I've been a part of this community
00:49:46.860my whole life. I've been to, you know, charity balls and all this other kind of stuff and
00:49:52.800fundraisers and after hurricanes, raising money for people. And I was cooking food for the linemen
00:50:00.160after Hurricane Ian. And, you know, because they're out there trying to string the new
00:50:04.120power poles back up and so i this is you know they're taking shots at me you know they can do
00:50:10.280all the negative i've run i've run a really clean campaign uh we are we're just talking about what i
00:50:15.860do in this community and uh we're moving forward and we're gonna win this thing tomorrow what are
00:50:22.700you uh hearing as far as the biggest issues for folks i mean i i know that uh southwest florida
00:50:29.680is probably a little different than Michigan. Yet, I would imagine very similar. Making sure
00:50:35.560President Trump continues to have the, you know, the firepower to get things done. We got to make
00:50:41.700it through this, this next couple of years. Well, Byron Donalds is one of the biggest supporters
00:50:46.880of President Trump. And he's going to be our next Florida governor. I mean, he's going to be great.
00:50:52.400DeSantis was great. Byron's going to be even better behind him having that having that runway
00:50:58.160that de santis laid down for him and you know president trump needs the strongest supporters
00:51:03.160he can get in this seat because byron was one of those and i'm that guy um through and through
00:51:07.920in southwest florida yeah jim schwarzel's with us right now he's running by the way
00:51:12.840um in the district 19 down there southwest florida uh and jim for congress.com is the uh
00:51:20.780is the website um now i know because they've done a lot of chopping and i know ron de santis the
00:51:25.800Governor there did a lot of chopping, in fact, to the benefit of Republicans in some of these areas.
00:51:31.300How does that change? Does it change your district much?
00:51:33.320And from what I understand, it could net us quite a few more seats there in the House.
00:51:39.600Yeah, they're looking three to four seats to add up.
00:51:43.100And some of the races are going to be tougher than others, but that's going to be the general election.
00:51:47.480And, you know, once we've got to get through the primary and then in some of those tougher seats,
00:51:52.380I will be happy to campaign around the state to help some of our fellow guys who have tougher races for the general, because Southwest Florida is a huge Republican seat.
00:52:03.460And as you said earlier, it will be a Republican seat.
00:52:07.240But there are some that don't quite have the lean that's as far as that we need.
00:52:13.000And so we'll be working really hard to try to get as many members of Congress be read out of the state of Florida as we possibly can.
00:52:44.100I'm not a career candidate or a career politician.
00:52:48.700I'm here to serve the president and serve Southwest Florida.
00:52:51.900So we are we're going to push this thing through and we're going to be as hardcore as possible.
00:52:57.500We've got to get rid of this whole Democrat communist people and, you know, and get real Republicans, bright red Republicans that are going to support President Trump.
00:53:08.700I mean, we actually have one of the candidates in this race is being funded by an anti-Trump PAC, even though I said she.
00:53:17.280but it is a she but even though she will sit there and say all day long that she's for president0.99
00:53:22.200trump uh look at it this way uh she has a pack that's put 5.4 million dollars behind her in this
00:53:31.200race and they are anti-trump which is unbelievable jim schwarzel with us now in the 19th congressional
00:53:38.320district in florida um you just mentioned you are a businessman uh you you've made a living uh doing
00:53:45.020some really great things in southwest florida with with media radio and television and some
00:53:49.920of the most respected i'll just say in the in the entire industry right there um you didn't have to
00:53:56.020do this though and you know similar to the president what was it jim what what made you jump
00:54:03.000well things like the president i mean he is a businessman and our great senator rick scott
00:54:08.660from southwest florida he lives in naples and uh you know he's a businessman before he became a
00:54:13.840politician so i mean it's the same thing they they both want to serve this country it's about
00:54:18.580america first it's about southwest florida first and that's what you know that's what i'm here for
00:54:24.380and that's also what uh senator scott and president trump do i mean it's all america first we got to
00:54:30.660put america number one yeah i have family there um and by the way it's you know i love i do i love
00:54:38.760michigan you know but uh this is always in fact southwest florida has always could have been the
00:54:44.300the escape hatch you know the free state of florida is there waiting if we need it but
00:54:49.380it's a really unique area i mean you have in southwest florida as you know but folks listening
00:54:55.780may not the beaches which is what you sort of think about when you think of florida but there's
00:55:00.540lots of rural and farmland there uh in fact i have some family that have that go way back in that
00:55:06.980area well there's some beautiful you have all the hammocks of the oaks and i mean you've got
00:55:13.720some beautiful areas of southwest florida where we still could go on and fishing and you go on atvs
00:55:19.900and have a have a ball down here i mean it's a the southwest florida coast uh on the gulf of
00:55:25.280america i mean it is uh we've got a lot of backwater islands we got we got lots of things
00:55:30.320to do down here and it's a it's a beautiful area of the country and i get why people are moving here
00:55:34.960we have people moving here every day and we got to be smart about the growth smart about our
00:55:40.420infrastructure and uh who better knows it than someone who's lived there lived here their entire
00:55:45.360life and absolutely your election is tomorrow for the primary jim uh i know you got lots to do
00:55:53.000today but in in that short amount of time what's your your your ask for folks whether it be to
00:55:58.480visit the website to maybe get on the phone call you know get out to get out to vote get out to
00:59:05.240Not just, obviously, in the primary in Florida.
00:59:07.980But look at how the primary has had, not just on the Republican side, but also on the Democrat side, impact here in Michigan.
00:59:16.020In fact, we're going to talk to Mike Rogers coming up in a little bit.
00:59:20.100Mike Rogers is the candidate for Senate who is running out of Michigan, former congressman.
00:59:25.700And he is, he's a guy who, if you just put him up against the alternative, which is Abdul Rahman Mohammed El-Sayed, running as the Democrat, socialist, it's the red-green thing, right?0.95
00:59:42.240The commie-Islamist combination, a killer combination, literally.0.59
00:59:50.780um but now the polling and we'll talk about this a little bit later on in the program but0.72
00:59:57.120the pro the polling is showing that even though they were able to swing at that race as far left
01:00:06.600as they did that in the general things aren't looking so great for uh abdul i'll say it um
01:00:16.280We're starting to see, in fact, I think it was Kalshi who had one of those betting websites
01:00:22.220had shown some of the polling before they had the Democrat picked.
01:00:27.600And yet they had Mike Rogers solidified as the only Republican running.
01:00:33.200They showed the Democrat was going to win by quite a good margin.
01:00:36.380When Abdul won the Democrat primary, he sunk.
01:00:42.320those odds sunk because he became the nominee and then republicans and rogers surged much of it is
01:00:50.220because of the things that he said much of it is because of the things that he's done the causes
01:00:55.180he's backed you know when the ayatollah was taken out there's that infamous audio he's caught saying
01:01:02.740um you know i i don't know if we want to issue a statement on this there are people in dearborn
01:01:08.300that aren't happy about this aren't happy well you can't call evil and clearly call it out i don't
01:01:14.960know i you you got bigger issues well now haley stevens the congresswoman he lost to in that race
01:01:24.860interviewed uh fox i believe this weekend is calling on him to disavow this hassan piker guy
01:01:30.760the guy said yeah america deserved 9-11 and he hasn't he hasn't been able to do that yet you
01:01:35.900know, you talk about not quite getting over the finish line, but it's not like he won in a
01:01:39.460landslide. I mean, this was closer than anybody expected. And the electability case that you made
01:01:45.180during your campaign is now bearing out. I mean, more than half of the electorate in your state,
01:01:50.24054 percent, say they're concerned that al-Sayed's positions are too extreme. If you break it down
01:01:54.720further, twice as many Democrats are concerned that he's too extreme as Republicans who are
01:01:59.260concerned that Mike Rogers is too close to President Trump. Would you call on Abdul al-Sayed
01:02:05.160today to moderate on any specific issues? Well, look, you know, it certainly makes sense to
01:02:13.600get rid of this Hassan-Piker affiliation. I'm calling on that. I've continued to call on that.1.00
01:02:19.620My friend and mentor, Keith Williams, who is a Detroiter, who is chair of the Michigan
01:02:27.600Democratic Party Black Caucus, you know, he and I spend a lot of time together, you know,
01:02:34.340brainstorming, putting down some of these, you know, how do we build the American dream
01:02:39.220notions here in a place called Michigan. And look, any day of the week, you know,
01:02:47.020the Democratic plan, you know, if you're Alicia Slotkin or Abdul, you know, your plan for health
01:02:53.800care is better than Mike Rogers. Your plan for democracy is better than Mike Rogers.
01:02:58.460Yeah, your plan for jihad. That's what they're dealing with now, because all of these
01:03:04.200issues or subjects that they want to talk about
01:03:06.200completely off the table. They're off the radar
01:11:00.300Things he's been talking about today, just in the last episode, they hit on multiple
01:11:04.460different conversations you were having today.
01:11:06.720They were talking about, you know, well, they didn't mention Iran, but they kind of
01:11:10.560talked about the technology that's being used to really equalize forces.
01:11:14.220And, you know, you can draw that, the parallels with Iran, but they were talking about Ukraine.
01:11:18.380But in this last episode, they were talking about all these different things that are affecting public opinion, whether it's, you know, foreign money rioting out on the streets.
01:11:28.480You take that directly to Marco Rubio's Cuba report.
01:11:31.980They talked about honeypots directly to government officials and senators.
01:11:37.760And it's almost like now you draw the peril with Swalwell.
01:11:40.440everything that they're talking about in that show and it it's it's extremely troublesome and
01:11:46.600worrisome is happening right now and it seems like the government just does not care whether
01:11:52.040it's you know anti-ice groups just springing up out of nowhere or honey pots or you know foreign
01:11:59.380you know non-citizens registered to vote 250 000 in just four states you were just talking about
01:12:06.540that as well with one of your guests from gateway pun i mean this is just insane and it feels like
01:12:10.380they don't care jason i gotta ask you i don't know this was posted somebody on x old school
01:12:16.500eddie is the guy's name they said did you notice to your point summer is typically riot season
01:12:21.460however since usa id was defunded spLC indicted and that will being investigated
01:12:27.440things have been pretty calm this summer right just saying uh that's interesting i want to ask
01:12:34.360you two about uh this over the weekend and this is all about public opinion and how it gets shape
01:12:40.360one of the one of the warnings that we had about this is that you know when you hear stories
01:12:45.060no matter whether you agree especially if you agree with them right or or or not that information
01:12:50.760got to be careful with because so much is coming at us and this story about the aircraft carrier
01:12:56.400maybe you can help shine some light on it the USS Abraham Lincoln we've heard some stories coming
01:13:02.460out we did hear that one of the sailors I think jumped to his death and again I wonder and it's
01:13:08.160just during while we're seeing what we're seeing played out and how does how much of this does
01:13:16.420does this come from and again the the news media is complicit in in sharing these things and how
01:13:23.620much does that hurt us and our attempts to to get things worked out in in in iran it seems to me
01:13:31.160uh again just another one of these stories yeah i know it's tough out there but again um i don't
01:13:37.740know that this should be front page news. Yeah. I'm just now starting to get caught up on that
01:13:42.620story. I saw a glimpse of it when I was on vacation last week. And the first thing that
01:13:47.240popped into my mind was I've been deployed on some of these ships right during September 11th.
01:13:53.460I was actually deployed on a full carrier group during September 11th. And we went straight to
01:14:00.260Afghanistan right afterwards. So we were on the ships quite a while, missed multiple different
01:14:04.840port calls. And I will say that it is not uncommon at all for morale to drop, which you've been out
01:14:10.740of the boat for, you know, multiple months, sustaining combat operations. Things do slide
01:14:17.880within the ship, whether that is, you know, cleanliness or whatever. It usually doesn't
01:14:23.420happen long before everyone gets whipped up into shape. But that did not surprise me at all that
01:14:28.120things like that do happen. You can imagine being on a boat that has a couple, maybe a couple
01:14:33.860thousand people on it you know every single one of them by name because you see them every day
01:14:38.460for multiple months in a row and you also know them by their smell uh it is not it's it's not a
01:14:45.200it's not a happy time yeah it's it's not a happy time so no this doesn't surprise me but i think
01:14:50.300you make a good point though on you know in in this war with iran it feels like you know we are
01:14:56.860fighting multiple different you know opposition groups on this we're fighting the iranians you
01:15:01.640know we're fighting their entire coalition you know sometimes we're fighting you know the gulf1.00
01:15:05.560arab kingdoms that you know just want to run away and go back to status quo just as long as they can1.00
01:15:10.660i don't know do whatever they want to do and rely on us to protect them and we're also fighting
01:15:15.400democrats we're fighting never trumpers we're fighting uh the media take your pick and i loved
01:15:23.800what you said with we were never designed to get all of this information at once like we were never
01:15:28.400designed to hear the intricacies of every single strategy from the the the presidential's
01:15:35.060administration and you know all the different ploys all the different takes all the different
01:15:39.180you know maneuvers we were never designed to get all this at once typically this was through phone
01:15:44.120calls and eventually that would come to some kind of resolution but now we are getting it
01:15:49.140minute by minute it's absolutely insane and the other piece is that we all feel like we have to
01:15:54.740be involved we all need first of all we all need to have a say in it yeah our armchair quarterbacks
01:16:00.120we all have the answers and uh we all we should all be sitting in that situation room it's just
01:16:05.720it's really something i've got that clip coming up here in a little bit uh over the weekend um
01:16:11.500joey jones kind of goes off a little bit about some of it uh similar to what you had said but
01:16:16.140these are all uh these are all stories uh jason appreciate you hanging with us we're gonna tackle
01:16:22.220as we've still got more of the show to go.
01:16:24.360If you want to join us, 888-727-BECK, 888-727-BECK.
01:16:28.540Back right after this, Justin Barkley in for Glenn today on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:16:35.000Doesn't matter if you drive a truck or a Tesla.
01:16:38.700Raising good kids takes the same kind of love.
01:18:33.700I was happy to have it because the alternative was an MRE or something cooked by the Afghan guy who was too stupid to be given a gun, and they let him be the cook.1.00
01:18:42.620And so if I wanted something spicy, test my fate a little bit, I'd go get a bowl of whatever he made in that giant, you know, urn thing that he had.1.00
01:18:51.040How weak are you on TV complaining about tuna and noodles?
01:18:57.760You volunteered to serve your country.
01:19:00.300You can come back, get out of the military, and do like all of these Democrat veterans and complain about it and make commercials and be a sellout if you want to and come up with a new way of doing things.0.52
01:19:12.200The last Democrat president that I remember that was deploying troops, Barack Obama, had the army going to Iraq on patrol bases for 15 months at a time eating MREs.0.68
01:19:23.480I'm sorry, but you're a sitting duck on a patrol base in Iraq, in Afghanistan, a heck of a lot more than you are on a fortified Navy ship sitting in the water.
01:19:31.820You might have got bored, and I'm sorry.
01:19:33.880We did have more fun getting in firefights, I'll say that.
01:19:36.840But to sit there and say that it was terrible because you had a corn dog and a hot dog,0.55
01:19:42.240I would have traded a block of C4 to the Taliban for a hot dog by about July 2010.
01:19:48.520A little more, yeah, I mean, a little more fired up maybe than Jason.
01:29:55.320I mean, the other day just came out that he thinks bacon is toxic.
01:29:58.140I mean, this guy is not somebody you want to sit down and go to a, well, obviously a football barbecue with.
01:30:06.260Mike Rogers with us right now, the former congressman running for this Senate seat.
01:30:11.220I think it is so jarring for a lot of people because it is a lot of what we've seen come out about Abdul has been sort of it's anti-American at its finest.
01:30:24.140we have on the year of the 25th anniversary of september 11th we have some of the things that
01:30:32.240he's uh he's he's been noted the to uh the people he's been noted to hang around with
01:30:37.360very much supporters i mean these aren't just supporters these are people there
01:30:40.320with him on election night um he's so you know you know my mom said when i was a kid you know
01:30:46.520and and i heard this quite a bit growing up is just show us your your five your five closest
01:30:51.500friends will tell you who you know you're going to be this is a this is a warning to all of us
01:30:56.600uh mike but it's it's it's not just in the extremist of of those things that we hear that
01:31:03.200are so crazy to us but it is it's in the policies as well and these commie i call it that sort of
01:31:10.320a commie jihadi combo here is is all about death and the and the and really the the the juxtaposition
01:31:18.380the contrast is what you're trying to do is bring Michigan back on track. And I know you've been0.97
01:31:26.120talking a lot about it. The president has dealt quite a bit about bringing manufacturing back to
01:31:30.820the United States. And in fact, we've already seen some of that take its play here in the
01:31:36.600manufacturing here in Michigan with the big three. But how important is that? Again, not just looking
01:31:42.820at the past of a state like Michigan, but looking forward that we make things and we make them great
01:31:49.520in America again. Absolutely, and we have plans to do all of that. This is really about making
01:31:56.540sure we get back into defense industrial-based manufacturing here in Michigan. We had a quarter
01:32:01.620century of two Democrats in the U.S. Senate representing Michigan, and we've lost in that
01:32:06.120quarter century 200,000 manufacturing jobs. Our median wage has slipped below the national average.
01:32:12.580Remember, we were leading that metric not that long ago, and, I mean, every metric has gotten worse.
01:32:28.880And one of the things we're going to do is bring SHOP back and put it in every high school in Michigan.
01:32:32.720And why that's important is that helps us attract this next generation of advanced manufacturing of skilled trades that China can't steal and AI can't replace.
01:32:45.180And so we've got a really aggressive plan to make sure that we're competitive, our kids can read at grade level, that we're going to get kids exposed to the opportunities of the skilled trades through shop.
01:32:58.720And by the way, my dad was a shop teacher, so I come about this honestly.
01:33:02.720We all took, all five of us boys took shop, and man, it was one of the best things we've ever done.
01:33:07.480And so you start going down through the things that we're doing to make sure that Michigan is now not just trying to tread water,
01:33:15.920but try to excel to be the envy of the country when it comes to manufacturing.
01:33:20.120That's what my goal will be as the next United States senator.
01:33:22.880you know in addition to stopping somebody who wants to ban gas cars and loves ev mandates and
01:33:29.000wants to raise your taxes about ten thousand uh dollars for each family because he wants your
01:33:36.600private health care to be turned over to the government and so i i just he is not aligned
01:33:41.920with michigan and he can do all the cute videos he wants michiganers know it we've seen the polling
01:33:48.580reflect that specifically recently and uh i think there's some opportunities in there mike rogers
01:33:54.840with us right now former congressman running for senate here in michigan against the extreme uh
01:34:00.260abdul el sayed the the story continues to to play out in the polls but that's that's one thing the
01:34:06.340other thing is what people are are telling you in person and i know look a lot of the things in fact
01:34:12.040you just mentioned him a lot of the reasons why some of these socialist policies some of these
01:34:17.860ideas are are taking root with some young people's number one they don't have much they don't
01:34:22.520understand they don't have much a concept of in the context of history and how uh they've they've
01:34:27.940led to very bad places uh millions and millions dead throughout the years but the other thing is
01:34:33.580these very people on the left it's democrats who largely particularly in this state but also
01:34:39.560throughout the the country have been the ones to cause these problems now the arsonists are
01:34:45.620masquerading as the firemen and they say we're here to put the fire out and they're the ones
01:34:50.100that spark the flame yeah this is like uh chickens for chick-fil-a i mean it just makes no sense to
01:34:58.420me whatsoever why people would get schnookered so fast after the biden administration had the
01:35:04.440highest interest rates in generations by spending but remember when they dumped all of that cash
01:35:10.200into the economy, everything got more expensive. And by the way, that takes some time to get out
01:35:16.020of the system. I mean, they spent, what, $6 trillion in that time, more? And it's just
01:35:21.580staggering. And then they reduced American energy availability. So they purposely made your utility
01:35:29.440bills higher and your gasoline prices higher when they went through all that. Because remember,
01:35:34.580they were the ones that didn't want you to use any of that. And so I think the president back
01:35:39.480D.C. is trying to, under the surface here, make sure we have American energy, unleash it on the
01:35:45.300market, make sure that we've got a handle on it. I think he reduced the federal employment by well
01:35:51.100over 100,000 people that make, by the way, in D.C., over $100,000 a year. Anybody miss them?
01:36:00.600That's what I thought. Nobody missed them. They didn't even know they were there, half of them.
01:36:14.980We've got a housing bill that's going to get young people have the ability to save tax-free for a down payment of a house,
01:36:21.300get credit for your on-time rent payments, which, by the way, crazily enough, you don't get credit for them now when you walk into the bank.
01:36:29.500We're going to create an atmosphere where builders want to build.
01:36:42.140We want builders to take a risk, go in there, build homes, sell it to individuals.
01:36:46.280They'll be able to take 100% tax deduction on the money they make on those projects.
01:36:51.480So we're doing it the old-fashioned way.
01:36:53.400We're using conservative principles to encourage growth, to encourage people to want to come back to Michigan,
01:36:59.740and to encourage our kids not to want to leave Michigan.
01:37:02.700And this is a huge problem here where, you know, parents and grandparents tell me with tears in their eyes about their kids walking in saying, I just can't make it here.
01:37:11.400I got to go. And you can't make it expensive.
01:37:14.020You can't regulate manufacturers out of existence here and wonder why our median wage is going down.
01:39:54.040But the good news is there is big plans and things happening in D.C.
01:39:59.200And then when I'm going to get there to help, make sure we get those energy prices down, make sure that we face this growing age of first-time homebuyers, which is just tragic, I think.
01:40:12.180That's one way in America you can build wealth, is buy that house and pay it off over time.
01:40:16.420That is the best wealth builder somebody can have in America.
01:40:20.460And we've taken it away for so many people through regulations,
01:40:24.380hotting it about those high costs, making it damn near impossible to save for a down payment.
01:40:30.760Well, guess what? All the Democrats are trying to do is take more money out of your paycheck.0.99
01:40:36.120This whole Medicare for All sounds wonderful.
01:40:37.800I saw, on average, $10,000 in new taxes per family.
01:40:42.800Oh, and by the way, you still have an increase in your payroll tax.
01:40:46.920I mean, this thing is dangerous for your economic well-being.
01:40:52.160And we're going to take 70 million people covered by Medicare,
01:40:55.380and now all of a sudden 340 million people are going to get covered,
01:50:04.200And again, all of this was uncovered in those documents coming out today, declassified.
01:50:11.380The FBI had evidence the Chinese woman with direct ties to the country's intelligence service had potentially compromised a Democratic congressman from California with sex, foreign interns, and illicit donations while she was being recruited to become a bureau informant a decade ago, according to the bombshell memos that expose another threat to America's political system from Beijing.
01:51:07.400Why do we know that it's a same way we know that election issues of fraud is we did because it's everywhere.
01:51:15.340Why? Human nature. And if there is no accountability, we'd actually don't lock some of these people up.
01:51:24.240Then it'll just continue to happen. The payoff's too good.
