00:00:00.000 I want to talk to you a little bit about Mantis X.
00:00:03.140 Mantis X is a way for you to get really, really good at gunplay.
00:00:10.080 Yeah, that's right.
00:00:11.520 She's got to take you off the streets.
00:00:14.040 Anyway, it is a great way for you to fire your gun and get better at it without using ammunition or using ammunition if you want.
00:00:23.980 You could dry fire in the house at any time.
00:00:26.820 You just put Mantis X on the back of your barrel, on the bottom of your barrel, and it measures exactly what you're doing every time you pull the trigger.
00:00:34.400 And it shows you in real time and then shows you how to fix it.
00:00:37.760 94% of the shooters improve within 20 minutes.
00:00:40.920 I know I did.
00:00:41.760 It's really, really great.
00:00:42.980 Start improving today.
00:00:44.120 Get yours at MantisX.com.
00:00:46.640 That's MantisX.com.
00:00:50.260 It's Monday.
00:00:52.040 Stu's got another holiday.
00:00:53.880 It's always gone, it seems.
00:00:55.680 But the old, reliable Pat, like old Yeller, who tomorrow, when Stu gets back the next day, will take Pat out into the barn.
00:01:06.300 And I don't want to do it.
00:01:07.740 I don't want to do it.
00:01:10.040 You just have to.
00:01:11.400 Have to put you down.
00:01:12.240 Yeah, you just have to.
00:01:12.680 Stand up, stand and hold the light.
00:01:38.920 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:52.420 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:00.040 Hello, America.
00:02:01.600 Well, we've got lots to report today.
00:02:04.460 Biden continues to go down in polls.
00:02:09.480 He's now at 31%.
00:02:11.720 There's never been anybody who's won re-election at 31%.
00:02:16.700 But he might, you know, because people are so passionate about him, so passionate about him.
00:02:24.500 They're now asking him to resign over and over and over again.
00:02:29.060 I'm seeing this everywhere.
00:02:30.760 I want to talk to you a little bit about, you know, the American dream and how he put a stake in the heart of it.
00:02:36.060 Uh, boy, speaking of steak, I need one.
00:02:40.500 Uh, and Russell Brand might need one as well.
00:02:45.420 Ah, Burger King and HelloFresh have now come off of his program.
00:02:53.680 What's happening to Russell Brand, he is not alone.
00:02:57.900 Uh, there are other people that are being, uh, destroyed right now.
00:03:02.900 Uh, and it seems like it all has to do with, I don't know, the Great Reset and Dark Future.
00:03:11.360 I begin there in 60 seconds.
00:03:13.460 Remember when you were a kid, you hit the ground running in the morning, didn't stop till evening?
00:03:17.740 You slept, you know, all night long?
00:03:20.560 Ugh, great sleep is wasted on, especially teenagers.
00:03:24.580 They sleep and sleep and sleep and sleep.
00:03:26.720 And like, get out of bed for the love of Pete!
00:03:29.720 And I get to the point where, I'm my grandfather.
00:03:35.260 And I never understood why my grandpa was up feeding the chickens at 4 o'clock in the morning.
00:03:39.620 Grandpa, even the chickens are asleep!
00:03:43.700 That's because the older you get, the, you know, the least, the less you sleep.
00:03:49.300 At least it seems to me, because it's, sleep is, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
00:03:54.200 The whole time.
00:03:55.500 If you need a good night's rest, may I suggest Relief Factor Sleep.
00:04:00.560 Relief Factor Sleep.
00:04:02.400 It's just like the regular Relief Factor you take for pain.
00:04:05.600 100% drug-free, so it's not going to whack you out or anything like that.
00:04:09.600 It just promotes healthy sleep.
00:04:11.760 By reducing anxiety, distress, improving your mood, promoting relaxation.
00:04:15.800 And you don't feel it in your system.
00:04:18.580 Unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:22.080 That's 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:24.700 Relief Factor.com
00:04:26.320 Hello, Pat. How are you?
00:04:30.560 Oh.
00:04:31.840 Yeah.
00:04:33.140 Where do I begin?
00:04:34.300 I know. I was up in Idaho this weekend for my son's football game.
00:04:41.240 How'd that go?
00:04:41.980 It's a, you know, it's a rebuilding year.
00:04:44.020 Yeah.
00:04:44.220 It's a rebuilding year.
00:04:46.200 Pat, so rebuilding year.
00:04:50.300 But if my son says to me one more time, I'm just so tired, Dad.
00:04:56.980 What?
00:04:58.140 You don't know what it's like.
00:04:59.400 I get up at 6 o'clock in the morning.
00:05:01.840 I got to get in.
00:05:03.280 I get to work and everything is just, you know, I got to get it done.
00:05:06.820 Got to get it done.
00:05:07.540 I'm racing around all day.
00:05:09.260 Then I go to school.
00:05:09.940 You don't know what that's like at all.
00:05:11.300 Yeah.
00:05:11.440 And then I get home, you know, like at 8 o'clock.
00:05:13.780 I just power eat and I'm right back to bed.
00:05:16.480 Then the next morning I do it all over again.
00:05:18.220 And I'm like, oh my gosh, how are you doing it?
00:05:23.800 Oh.
00:05:24.380 It's a miracle.
00:05:25.080 It is.
00:05:25.820 Seriously.
00:05:26.320 A miracle.
00:05:26.860 A 19-year-old kid to be able to do that?
00:05:29.720 That's incredible.
00:05:30.940 Wow.
00:05:31.340 Wow.
00:05:32.000 You know, does everybody's teenager piss them off?
00:05:37.220 I think probably, yeah.
00:05:38.300 Yeah.
00:05:38.440 Okay.
00:05:38.840 Okay.
00:05:39.020 Yeah.
00:05:39.240 Okay.
00:05:39.720 Okay.
00:05:40.020 I know because I have older daughters that I do know that, you know, because one of my
00:05:47.340 daughters used to always say, my child will never lay spread eagle in the grocery store.
00:05:53.060 And I'm like, hmm, okay.
00:05:54.380 All right.
00:05:54.880 Yeah.
00:05:55.380 Yep.
00:05:55.620 I'm a bad parent.
00:05:56.720 I'll tell you that.
00:05:57.580 It's only bad parents that have.
00:05:59.060 And then when her child was spread eagle in the grocery store, I was lucky enough to be
00:06:04.760 there and just walked by her and said, what a bad parent.
00:06:09.700 I wouldn't, my kid would never.
00:06:12.920 She slugged me, but it was worth it.
00:06:15.960 It was absolutely worth it.
00:06:17.680 Anyway, welcome to the program.
00:06:19.240 We're glad you're here.
00:06:20.720 I've got a really important story today that you probably are not going to read any place
00:06:26.500 else unless you're a total geek.
00:06:29.060 You know, like me and my staff, the G20 met earlier this month in India and, you know,
00:06:37.920 love it.
00:06:38.540 Love it.
00:06:39.060 Couldn't get enough of that G20 news.
00:06:41.560 This is probably the biggest meeting for global economic superpowers that occurs every
00:06:47.280 year.
00:06:48.220 Russia and China did not attend.
00:06:51.100 So the U S and India took a larger role in the G20 meetings.
00:06:55.980 And at this year's event, the G20 produced a statement called the G20 New Delhi leaders
00:07:02.960 declaration.
00:07:04.540 Now, when I first read that, I thought New Delhi, where's a new Delhi?
00:07:09.220 I love delis.
00:07:10.280 And then I realized they were talking about India.
00:07:12.900 So I lost interest for a while in it.
00:07:15.360 The G20 published a rough outline of its policy plans and priorities for member nations.
00:07:20.840 Now, keep in mind, these are the priorities that the countries agreed on.
00:07:26.060 And it's a general consensus on the declaration.
00:07:30.600 The reason why the new Delhi declaration is important is because it provides an exceptional
00:07:37.200 look into the globalist great reset playbook for next year and longer.
00:07:44.360 And all of this is leading to the all incredibly important United nations meeting, uh, in September
00:07:50.920 called summit for the future where a new, oops, where a new, a new international pack will
00:08:00.080 be formally approved.
00:08:01.280 Now, this is them showing their cards.
00:08:06.040 All we have to do is look at them and take them seriously.
00:08:10.760 So what's in the declaration?
00:08:13.620 Well, it's, uh, to say it's radical is kind of an understatement.
00:08:18.760 It's the great reset on steroids.
00:08:22.240 It's 37 pages long.
00:08:24.580 You know, our guy's got our declaration done in one page.
00:08:27.620 If you can't do it in one page really can't be done.
00:08:30.620 You know, uh, it's 37 pages long.
00:08:33.860 Each page containing a numerous bullet point agenda item for creating the new world order.
00:08:40.760 There are literally hundreds of points in the document.
00:08:43.820 So I, I mean, you don't expect me to go through all of them.
00:08:46.880 Do you, I mean, on my own, I would never inflict that on you, but please don't make me do that.
00:08:51.740 Here are just some of the highlights.
00:08:54.200 Point number one, an international commitment to dramatically scale back the use of private
00:09:01.220 and public lands.
00:09:02.880 Yeah, the G20 is committed to restoring by 2030, at least 30% of all degraded ecosystems and scaling
00:09:15.700 up the efforts to achieve land degradation neutrality.
00:09:20.180 So that, that means is, have you degraded your land, Pat?
00:09:27.760 Hmm.
00:09:28.720 I, yes.
00:09:30.560 Yes, you have, you have, you have, there's cement on it and the house and right.
00:09:35.520 Yes.
00:09:35.940 People.
00:09:36.720 Yes.
00:09:37.360 Yeah.
00:09:37.700 Well, we're going to have to, we're going to have to reduce that just a little bit.
00:09:42.480 Now, uh, number two, a commitment to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030.
00:09:51.360 Now I have been up at night every night thinking about the loss of biodiversity.
00:09:56.260 I think we all have.
00:09:57.140 Sure.
00:09:57.520 We have.
00:09:57.900 This would mean not only the end of land development, but also the return of land that's currently
00:10:06.540 occupied to you by humans to nature.
00:10:11.160 Got it.
00:10:12.040 Mm hmm.
00:10:12.700 Okay.
00:10:13.320 Mm hmm.
00:10:14.060 So, uh, like all land that's currently occupied by humans.
00:10:17.840 Not all, but 30%.
00:10:20.240 Oh, 30% of the land needs to be, you know, returned.
00:10:24.040 Get out of here.
00:10:24.800 Uh, and they, they're not going to do anything with it.
00:10:27.700 They're just going to return it to its natural utopian, you know, garden of Eden state.
00:10:33.300 I'm sure.
00:10:34.020 Okay.
00:10:34.580 Uh, I don't know how we're going to feed the world's hungry.
00:10:37.420 You know, when we return 30% just back to nature.
00:10:40.860 Uh, but this is what we warned about in dark future.
00:10:45.560 In fact, uh, I wouldn't mind just calling these the top 10 things that we told you about in
00:10:53.500 dark future that are now happening.
00:10:55.780 Uh, all right.
00:10:56.840 So, uh, number three is a plan for international governance for AI.
00:11:05.280 According to the document, member nation should ensure that AI is developed responsibly, which
00:11:12.940 means among other things, designers take ethics and biases into account.
00:11:19.960 So in other words, we hate conservatives.
00:11:23.760 Let's put that into the machine.
00:11:26.580 It'd be good for the elites.
00:11:28.500 Uh, you know, um, and it would be good for us too.
00:11:31.700 If we just had the same understanding of ethics and biases, but we don't, this is a way for
00:11:37.800 them to use AI now globally to promote ESG, DEI and, uh, other social justice.
00:11:46.300 Furthermore, the nation's committing to promoting AI that is designed to accomplish the United
00:11:53.360 Nations sustainable development goals.
00:11:55.540 Yeah.
00:11:56.560 So we got those 17 sustainable goals.
00:12:01.720 Uh, the foundation of the great reset agenda, 21 agenda, 2030, and nearly other, every other
00:12:08.460 agenda.
00:12:09.480 These globalists, uh, have, uh, now number four, again, we predicted that, uh, the fourth thing
00:12:16.160 we predicted in dark future, expanding the international tax system and building publicly regulated,
00:12:24.600 controllable, digital, public infrastructure.
00:12:29.040 Finally.
00:12:30.260 Haven't we been saying that?
00:12:31.580 Oh, I could just play it, pay a global tax.
00:12:34.500 The late forties.
00:12:36.080 I think it's when we started saying that we did.
00:12:38.220 We were, we, well, we weren't even kids back then.
00:12:41.200 No, we were 20 years away from being kids, but we knew, we knew that's what we wanted.
00:12:47.800 Uh, unfortunately I had a lapse of sanity and in dark future, I said, this was bad.
00:12:53.780 And warned against it.
00:12:56.180 Uh, number six things we predicted in dark future, additional regulations for cryptocurrencies.
00:13:04.160 So we can get those right out of, you know, we don't want any cryptocurrency.
00:13:09.000 Well, we want digital central digital, uh, banking currency.
00:13:13.000 You know, that would be a really, really good.
00:13:15.860 Seventh thing we predicted in dark future, a goal of increasing social protection programs
00:13:21.460 like universal healthcare and implementing policies to make social security benefits portable
00:13:28.480 between nations.
00:13:31.160 So.
00:13:32.760 Wow.
00:13:33.360 Wow.
00:13:34.040 So we could, we could continue what we're doing in Iran.
00:13:37.040 I mean, uh, Ukraine and probably Iran in Ukraine.
00:13:40.600 I could just pay everybody's social security.
00:13:43.620 Number eight, enhancing the power of the world health organization in future pandemics and
00:13:50.000 public health emergencies.
00:13:51.960 What a dream come true.
00:13:53.040 That'll be, huh?
00:13:54.340 Ninth thing we predicted that has now come true in dark future trillions in new climate
00:14:00.500 related spending programs.
00:14:02.880 Now, who do you think is gonna, I mean, who has the printing press, you know, who can do
00:14:08.980 that?
00:14:11.240 Yeah.
00:14:12.120 Ten additional collaboration and research for introduction and adoption of central bank digital
00:14:19.120 currencies.
00:14:19.760 But remember that is nothing more than nobody.
00:14:31.280 Then it's a conspiracy theory.
00:14:36.400 My gosh.
00:14:38.980 This is the beginning of dark future.
00:14:43.980 I wanted you to know if you haven't read dark future, you need to read it.
00:14:49.140 It is happening and it is happening faster than, than you can imagine this, this whole
00:14:56.260 ESG thing.
00:14:57.760 It's not over.
00:14:59.120 It's just been renamed.
00:15:01.240 That's it.
00:15:02.240 And they're destroying people like Russell Brand.
00:15:05.920 They're destroying him.
00:15:07.260 Now, I'm not saying that he didn't do something bad in the early 2000s.
00:15:11.580 I don't know.
00:15:12.320 He was a dirtbag.
00:15:13.320 He said he was a dirtbag.
00:15:15.940 So I don't know.
00:15:17.080 It was all consensual though.
00:15:18.360 Right.
00:15:19.040 And he hasn't, I don't even think he's been charged yet.
00:15:23.280 Um, and if he is even charged, so we don't know, but they are destroying him.
00:15:30.440 Every, every form of every platform and every form of income he has is being taken.
00:15:36.500 Have you ever heard of parliament, uh, passing something and reaching out to Elon Musk at
00:15:45.920 Twitter because he won't ban him.
00:15:49.440 Everybody else is banning him because, you know, they're under the ESG thumb.
00:15:55.100 Elon Musk won't do it.
00:15:56.840 So parliament, parliament reached out and said, Twitter, you're going to have a problem in
00:16:04.060 England if you don't follow the rules here.
00:16:07.000 Wow.
00:16:07.880 I mean, that is chilling, chilling.
00:16:11.060 Yeah.
00:16:11.660 Chilling.
00:16:12.800 When the guy hasn't been found guilty of anything.
00:16:16.740 No.
00:16:17.180 And I'm not saying he's innocent.
00:16:19.020 He might be, but he might be guilty.
00:16:21.520 Right.
00:16:21.740 You can't, you prove it.
00:16:23.420 I've never, I've never seen this before.
00:16:26.200 Yeah.
00:16:26.360 That's never.
00:16:27.200 And the reason why is because he was a very effective voice on ESG in Europe.
00:16:34.760 Very, very effective voice.
00:16:37.640 And you can't have that.
00:16:39.540 Can't have that.
00:16:40.960 So they tried to call him a conspiracy theory and everything else.
00:16:44.300 Nothing stopped him.
00:16:45.640 So now this is going to stop him.
00:16:49.600 Wow.
00:16:50.580 It's, it's terrifying.
00:16:52.920 And that's not all that's happening.
00:16:55.900 I'll get into that here in a second.
00:16:57.460 I want to also talk to you about Bidenomics.
00:17:02.200 And remember.
00:17:03.340 How well it's working.
00:17:04.520 Yeah.
00:17:05.060 Yeah.
00:17:05.460 It's really working well.
00:17:06.480 That and the border.
00:17:07.440 Yeah.
00:17:07.700 Oh my God.
00:17:08.140 Really well.
00:17:08.680 Shut down.
00:17:09.300 Yeah.
00:17:09.480 Shut down.
00:17:09.860 And Ukraine.
00:17:11.160 Oh, yeah.
00:17:12.580 That is working really.
00:17:14.140 Money well spent.
00:17:15.660 Amen, brother.
00:17:16.800 Amen.
00:17:17.400 And you know, he reduced the deficit too.
00:17:19.540 Oh, yeah.
00:17:20.200 Yeah.
00:17:20.700 Yeah.
00:17:20.880 So we got inflation.
00:17:22.620 It's brought it way down, way down.
00:17:25.680 So anyway, we're going to talk a little bit about Bidenomics and the price of your car,
00:17:29.700 the price of your house, the price of everything.
00:17:32.860 What's happening?
00:17:34.340 That more in a minute.
00:17:36.440 As far as my dog Uno is concerned, I'm the master of the house.
00:17:41.720 Yeah, it's not actually.
00:17:43.500 Now, my wife is the master of that.
00:17:45.720 I answer to the dog after my wife.
00:17:49.080 He's a German shepherd.
00:17:50.220 He doesn't speak any English, which I really like.
00:17:54.020 Keep him away.
00:17:54.880 And, you know, any dog, you just speak German, give German commands to your dog.
00:18:00.340 You know, they can't speak a language, but they're freaked out.
00:18:03.140 Even they know, oh, dear, you're not a German, are you?
00:18:07.060 Because they're freaked out because Germans are spooky.
00:18:09.020 Anyway, as the master of this dog, I'm responsible to make sure he gets the best nutrition in his diet or he'll eat me.
00:18:18.900 So I want to look for something that will lead to the happiest and healthiest life that that he can possibly lead.
00:18:26.800 And that's why I have rough greens.
00:18:28.980 It's not a dog food.
00:18:30.040 I sprinkle it on the dog food.
00:18:31.480 Remember, brown food, dead food.
00:18:33.480 You want the greens.
00:18:34.660 You name it.
00:18:35.540 If it is healthy for your dog, it's probably in rough greens and they have a special for you right now.
00:18:39.720 They'll give you your first trial bag free.
00:18:42.300 You just pay for shipping at roughgreens.com slash back or you can call 833-GLEN-33.
00:18:48.600 They're going to give you the first trial bag for free.
00:18:50.720 Just pay for shipping 833-GLEN-33.
00:18:53.580 That's 833-G-L-E-N-N-33.
00:18:56.920 Roughgreens.com slash back.
00:18:59.580 Ten seconds.
00:19:00.740 Station ID.
00:19:05.540 So I don't know.
00:19:13.180 I think I have a problem with this.
00:19:15.920 Um, YouTube demonetized Russell Brand last week and now the, uh, and now YouTube's competitor rumble.
00:19:28.100 They're under attack from a group called the news movement.
00:19:31.960 We're going to get into that a little later.
00:19:33.940 The news movement, uh, a TikTok channel called its advertisers to tell them their contact was, uh, content was appearing alongside brands videos and asked if they would be pulling it.
00:19:48.340 Many of the brands, the news movement contacted didn't offer any con comment.
00:19:54.940 They're like, I don't know anything.
00:19:57.600 I don't know.
00:19:58.440 I don't know.
00:20:00.420 Yeah, but did they call you?
00:20:01.800 I don't know.
00:20:03.860 It's the, what, what exactly is the news?
00:20:06.620 I don't know.
00:20:07.320 I don't know.
00:20:07.780 We're just not saying.
00:20:09.740 So that's good.
00:20:11.000 So that's good.
00:20:11.760 So we've got some, uh, you know, we have some organized brown shirts.
00:20:16.600 Uh, apparently here's some, uh, more good news, Texas, the Biden administration, the harm reduction program, uh, is, uh, really, really doing well here.
00:20:32.680 According to the, uh, the Dallas express since last year, the harm reduction El Paso Alliance has received nearly $800,000 from the department of health and human services as part of the nation's first federal harm reduction program.
00:20:51.080 The, the, the group, which got $800,000 from the administration distributes smoke kits.
00:21:03.460 Uh, the kits include a small cylinder made of glass.
00:21:11.820 Now that's against the law to pass out crack pipes, but the Biden administration does.
00:21:21.060 He doesn't seem to care about that, uh, so much.
00:21:25.020 So yet another attack on Texas again, the, everything that we're talking about with the great reset, everything that's going on is to make sure that you own nothing.
00:21:39.880 And how do you do that?
00:21:41.880 We told you in the first book, the great reset, they have to impoverish you.
00:21:47.880 Well, how do you do that?
00:21:49.940 Well, they're doing it.
00:21:50.780 And I'll show you how they're doing it.
00:21:52.740 And, and it's really critical that you understand how they're doing it.
00:21:57.160 Because if you don't, you're just going to get pissed at everybody or whoever the media tells you to blame for the problems you're having financially.
00:22:07.920 Also, they want to reduce our interaction with nature.
00:22:14.020 I'll give you a clear cut example on that or two in just a second.
00:22:20.860 Stand by.
00:22:21.800 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:22:48.200 Now for five consecutive quarters now, credit card balances have done nothing but go up overall, and they're increasing at some of the largest rates in 20 years.
00:23:05.100 This has been brutal, I think, for most Americans that are struggling with inflation, rising rates, and just generally how expensive everything seems to be in America.
00:23:16.060 So if you're one of those people, let me give you a possible path out American financing.
00:23:23.440 They're helping people just like you get out from underneath that debt burden and start to realize significant savings.
00:23:29.700 Imagine saving $700 every month.
00:23:32.500 It'd go a long way, wouldn't it?
00:23:34.620 Well, that's what they're helping the average customer save every single month through things like mortgage refi.
00:23:41.580 Unlike credit card debt, your mortgage interest is tax deductible.
00:23:45.520 That stretches the savings out even further.
00:23:48.880 See what they can do for you.
00:23:50.300 Call them.
00:23:50.760 No strings attached.
00:23:51.700 It's American financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, Americanfinancing.net.
00:24:00.960 Check out my show, Pat Gray Unleashed, every weekday from 7 to 9 Eastern, live, or anytime and anywhere you get your podcasts.
00:24:09.280 Oh yeah, yeah, there's no, this is, I'm telling you, who even notices things like inflation?
00:24:27.580 You know what I mean?
00:24:28.980 Go Bidenomics.
00:24:31.620 The, uh, remember, the idea is that you will own nothing.
00:24:37.000 You'll own nothing and you'll like it.
00:24:40.880 So, what are the things that you just think you're never going to get people out of their home?
00:24:47.200 Never going to get people to stop driving cars?
00:24:50.980 Well, well, now let's look at this for a second.
00:24:53.860 The home affordability index has fallen from 169 point average in 2020 to 87.8 points as of July.
00:25:07.880 That's according to the National Association of Realtors.
00:25:11.320 One key driver of the expense is, of course, inflation, which peaked at 9.1%.
00:25:20.740 Both housing and automobiles now are mostly unfortable to American households.
00:25:29.720 And why is that?
00:25:31.320 Well, the government spent an awful lot of money and the feds had to raise the rates.
00:25:38.440 That's how most people, they don't go out and buy a house or car with cash.
00:25:42.080 Which, the Biden administration has introduced, I would say, a lot of high spending bills.
00:25:50.900 We have the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan.
00:25:56.520 Then you have the Inflation Reduction Act, which he says, I wish we wouldn't have named it that because people think it's about inflation and it's not.
00:26:07.540 It's a Green New Deal.
00:26:09.240 That was $750 billion in new spending.
00:26:13.240 $370 billion for that going towards green initiatives.
00:26:17.220 And then the Fed was like, hey, we're going to have inflation.
00:26:23.720 And so they've brought the Fed rate up to 5.5.
00:26:28.420 Now, that's the amount they loan to the banks.
00:26:33.920 Not you.
00:26:34.420 You're not getting 5.5.
00:26:36.780 So as housing becomes unaffordable, what's it look like?
00:26:42.280 Well, in most markets across the U.S., home prices have risen between 10% and 15% just in the last couple of years.
00:26:53.240 The median home price in July was $412,300.
00:27:00.400 That's insanity.
00:27:03.300 That's insanity.
00:27:05.340 Half a million dollars almost for the average house?
00:27:10.340 That's crazy.
00:27:11.360 Mortgage rates were 6.92.
00:27:16.720 So you're paying 7% on your mortgage compared to 2020 when the median home was $300,000.
00:27:27.340 Plus, I refinanced just a couple of years ago at like 2.8 or something.
00:27:32.920 The average at the time was 3.17.
00:27:35.760 6.1.
00:27:36.920 Wow.
00:27:37.480 Yeah.
00:27:37.840 That's crazy.
00:27:38.460 And still, historically, that is low.
00:27:40.980 But we haven't seen that in a long time.
00:27:42.960 In a long time.
00:27:44.520 Okay.
00:27:45.960 $412,000 for the average house.
00:27:48.800 Who can afford that?
00:27:50.900 Real wages have been downgraded by inflation.
00:27:54.500 The median weekly real earnings for both wage and salary workers, according to the Federal Reserve of St. Louis, has declined 7.1% in the second quarter of this year.
00:28:10.820 7.1% in the second quarter of this year.
00:28:14.380 7.1% in the second quarter of this year.
00:28:16.440 Also, you want to buy a car?
00:28:18.440 You have the high interest rates.
00:28:20.500 You have...
00:28:21.000 How much is the average car now?
00:28:22.680 I have no idea.
00:28:23.080 I think it's over $30,000.
00:28:23.980 Over $30,000.
00:28:24.560 Oh, it's got to be over $30,000.
00:28:26.260 Yeah.
00:28:26.900 Easily over $30,000.
00:28:28.040 I remember when I was growing up, a Mercedes, which I didn't know anybody who had a Mercedes or anything.
00:28:33.740 No, I didn't either.
00:28:34.540 It was like $30,000 or $20,000.
00:28:36.480 I think it was $20,000.
00:28:37.480 Yeah, probably more like $20,000.
00:28:38.360 Yeah, $20,000.
00:28:39.780 The price of auto insurance is now up 19.1%.
00:28:45.640 Why is that?
00:28:50.700 Why is that?
00:28:52.320 Why is it up?
00:28:53.260 A lot of tickets.
00:28:54.240 A lot of speeding tickets.
00:28:55.160 No, no, no.
00:28:56.220 No, it's not that?
00:28:56.900 Not that.
00:28:57.200 Oh, okay.
00:28:57.620 I'm sorry.
00:28:57.820 No, that's you.
00:28:58.480 That's you.
00:28:59.400 It's a little close to home.
00:29:00.800 Yeah, no.
00:29:01.960 What is it?
00:29:03.440 People stealing cars.
00:29:04.800 People breaking into cars all over the country, breaking their glass.
00:29:08.360 Having to be repaired over and over and over again.
00:29:11.340 So, the crime that the left brought us and the inflation that both the right and the left have brought us,
00:29:22.160 but now crazy from the left.
00:29:26.340 And so, what's happening?
00:29:28.840 Nobody's buying cars, which is hurting Detroit and hurting the workers.
00:29:36.640 And new home construction is crashing.
00:29:41.520 It's down 33% from last year at this time.
00:29:45.980 But don't worry.
00:29:48.760 There's a lot of, you know, jobless construction workers out there.
00:29:53.040 And we're importing millions of new hardworking illegals.
00:29:59.380 So, that's going to make that even better for the construction workers.
00:30:03.720 By the way, how much does it take to now qualify for a mortgage?
00:30:11.940 $104,000 for you to even qualify.
00:30:16.600 Our national debt is now $33 trillion last Tuesday.
00:30:22.220 More than $5 trillion over Biden's term.
00:30:25.900 Far greater than the $2.48 trillion increase seen under Donald Trump.
00:30:31.640 And the $4.3 trillion under Obama.
00:30:36.880 In eight years?
00:30:38.520 In eight years.
00:30:40.540 $5 trillion in two.
00:30:43.540 Wow.
00:30:43.880 So, you know.
00:30:47.340 Yeah, but he told us over the weekend, he just hasn't been getting the message out.
00:30:50.700 He's got to get the message out to people about it.
00:30:52.520 I'm trying to help him.
00:30:53.760 I'm trying to help him.
00:30:56.480 And I'm sure he'd thank you for this.
00:30:58.240 Yeah, thank you.
00:30:59.340 So, there's another story.
00:31:01.780 Remember, the whole goal is you don't own anything.
00:31:05.440 And the only way they can make that happen is if you just can't afford anything.
00:31:10.540 And so, you'll have to go to renting.
00:31:12.560 You'll rent your car.
00:31:14.360 You'll take an Uber.
00:31:15.680 You won't drive.
00:31:17.880 You'll rent a bike.
00:31:19.640 You'll rent a house.
00:31:22.520 All of it.
00:31:23.660 And you won't have any place to go because they want to reclaim the national parks and 30% of the country.
00:31:34.880 So, they don't want you driving very far.
00:31:37.220 Another reason for electric cars, 400 miles tops.
00:31:40.420 They don't want you driving across the country.
00:31:43.220 You won't be flying across the country.
00:31:46.780 And in something that I'm sure has nothing to do with anything that I just talked about, La Jolla Beach in San Diego.
00:31:55.420 Known for its beauty and rugged rocks.
00:32:00.600 Mainly, what people really love, the sea lion population.
00:32:05.220 I know I love that.
00:32:06.600 I love that.
00:32:07.400 Well, they're now going to ban and protect the sea lion population in San Diego.
00:32:18.720 San Diego, the 8-0 vote in the city council said they're going to close the beach.
00:32:28.240 Close the beach in La Jolla, but just for seven years.
00:32:33.620 Oh, okay.
00:32:34.800 So, just seven years to stop the spread.
00:32:39.300 That's all that is.
00:32:41.720 All that is.
00:32:42.440 What happens after seven years?
00:32:43.760 The sea lions have had enough babies in order to repopulate the beach?
00:32:49.060 Yeah, of course.
00:32:49.740 Of course.
00:32:50.800 Yeah.
00:32:51.040 Of course.
00:32:51.920 And anybody who stands in the way, of course, you know, you're a problem.
00:32:57.340 By the way, Gavin Newsom kind of hit the panic button over the weekend.
00:33:03.040 He found out that his son listens to Joe Rogan and said that, you know,
00:33:09.820 I really worry about the misinformation and the disinformation from Rogan, you know,
00:33:15.220 about what's happening to our country.
00:33:16.740 I worry about these micro cults that my kids are in.
00:33:21.880 So, really, it's a micro.
00:33:23.760 If you listen to Joe Rogan, you're in a micro cult.
00:33:28.300 Ha.
00:33:29.560 I didn't realize that.
00:33:33.020 By the way, speaking of Joe Rogan, did you see what he did over the weekend?
00:33:38.080 I did not.
00:33:38.720 Well, we told you last week that the House and the Senate or the Assembly and the Senate,
00:33:45.200 they voted to pass something really special, and it was only waiting for Gavin Newsom's signature.
00:33:54.360 It passed overwhelmingly, and it was just say no to parents being notified.
00:34:02.200 You couldn't, you were not allowed to tell a parent if your kid was going to be, you know, have a sex change operation,
00:34:13.940 and the bigger part of it, the teeth, if your parent did not affirm your treatment,
00:34:22.800 you could be arrested, the kids could be taken away.
00:34:27.220 Now, I thought there was no way.
00:34:29.440 Like, Gavin Newsom's not going to sign that?
00:34:32.100 Gavin in California, when it passed the House and the Senate, he's going to stand in the way of it?
00:34:38.180 Everybody thought it was a foregone conclusion.
00:34:40.280 Hmm.
00:34:40.720 Yeah, he vetoed it.
00:34:47.940 Now, I'm not saying that he's going to be running for president.
00:34:52.460 But with the rest of the news coming out this weekend about how bad Joe Biden is performing in the polls,
00:35:01.460 I'm not not saying that either.
00:35:06.580 I want to talk to you about the parallel economy here that we're building all the time in America and on this program.
00:35:12.040 And one of the best examples of the kind of company that belongs in that kind of an economy is Patriot Mobile.
00:35:19.320 For a decade, they have been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider.
00:35:24.480 The only one.
00:35:26.660 And I've been proud to partner with them since almost day one.
00:35:30.320 Patriot Mobile offers dependable nationwide coverage so you can access any of the three major networks that everybody's on.
00:35:37.720 But you don't have to worry that part of your bill is going to fund leftist causes.
00:35:41.480 You not only get great service at a great price, but you're also sending a message to the rest of the country
00:35:47.400 that you believe in and support free speech, religious freedom, sanctity of life, the Second Amendment,
00:35:53.700 and our military veterans and first responder heroes.
00:35:57.120 Their 100% U.S.-based customer service team is going to help make switching easy.

00:36:26.020 You know, I didn't know this, but Elon Musk apparently is even better than everyone thought at building cars
00:36:51.180 because they're actually rolling hospitals, apparently.
00:36:55.780 Here is cut three.
00:36:58.520 AOC's reason for buying a Tesla.
00:37:01.480 You were quoted back in July saying you look forward to buying a union-made electric vehicle,
00:37:06.220 but you buy, but you currently have a non-union-made Tesla.
00:37:10.960 UAW already makes some electric vehicles.
00:37:13.620 So why wasn't that?
00:37:14.700 Is it a problem with the quality?
00:37:17.400 Is it a problem with the style?
00:37:18.640 Is the market just not there?
00:37:20.460 No.
00:37:21.020 Our car was purchased during the pandemic when travel, before a vaccine had come out.
00:37:27.200 So travel between New York and Washington, the safest way that we had determined was an EV,
00:37:31.720 but that was prior to some of the new models coming out on the market that had the range available.
00:37:38.160 But we're actually looking into trading in our car now.
00:37:41.560 So we're looking into it, and hopefully we will soon.
00:37:44.660 Oh, that's great.
00:37:45.560 So it was the safest way to travel, which, you know, you wanted to be safe in that little bubble.
00:37:54.200 You know, and that's, you can't buy American and be safe.
00:37:57.760 No.
00:37:58.160 Not from the pandemic.
00:37:59.420 No.
00:38:00.060 So some of the other models weren't out.
00:38:02.540 Now, I don't know which models those were because all those electric vehicles were out,
00:38:09.960 and they were still sitting on the lot for a very long time.
00:38:13.600 Everybody was like, no, don't you have something like something we want?
00:38:18.240 No, we have the, you know, the electric vehicles still sitting here, still on sale.
00:38:22.720 I'll tell you that right now.
00:38:24.620 Okay, good, good, good.
00:38:28.460 Let's see.
00:38:29.600 We have Joe Biden over the weekend, speaking of vaccinations.
00:38:33.900 Cut five.
00:38:35.220 So I'm running again, and you may have noticed a lot of people are focused on my age.
00:38:41.100 Well, I get it.
00:38:42.300 Believe me.
00:38:43.320 I know better than anyone.
00:38:46.320 But there's something else I know.
00:38:49.620 When I came to office, this nation was flat on its back.
00:38:53.620 I knew what to do.
00:38:55.280 I vaccinated the nation and rebuilt the economy.
00:38:58.220 Mm-hmm.
00:38:58.640 You did?
00:38:59.940 Yeah.
00:39:00.520 Vaccinated the nation.
00:39:01.780 Oh, he's maybe the economy of Ukraine?
00:39:05.340 Yeah.
00:39:05.720 Yeah.
00:39:06.040 So he's rebuilding that.
00:39:07.720 Yeah.
00:39:07.860 So he's doing that.
00:39:08.940 That's really.
00:39:09.800 Yeah.
00:39:10.280 So he vaccinated the nation and rebuilt the economy.
00:39:15.460 He's done some other things.
00:39:17.060 Some other things.
00:39:18.600 You know, he's turned schools and teachers against parents.
00:39:24.640 Here's our education secretary speaking to the Associated Press.
00:39:30.600 Listen to this.
00:39:31.500 You've said that public education and public schools are under attack.
00:39:36.100 I'm wondering whether this is something that other education secretaries have had to grapple with.
00:39:41.140 You know, I've been in education, you know, about 25 years.
00:39:49.740 Not including the time I was in higher ed as a student.
00:39:54.480 I've never seen it where it is now.
00:39:58.980 There was civility.
00:40:01.320 We could disagree.
00:40:03.380 We could have healthy conversations around what's best for kids.
00:40:08.440 I respect differences of opinion.
00:40:11.100 Do you?
00:40:11.600 No.
00:40:11.760 I don't have too much respect for people that are misbehaving in public and then acting as if they know what's right for kids.
00:40:18.760 There's a team that's fighting for kids and there's a team that's fighting against kids.
00:40:22.520 Right.
00:40:23.000 Uh-huh.
00:40:23.340 Right.
00:40:23.940 And it's the teachers.
00:40:24.920 It's the teachers.
00:40:25.520 He goes on to say the teachers are the ones who know what's best for their kids.
00:40:28.020 That's right.
00:40:28.660 Of course.
00:40:28.980 Because they're with them every day.
00:40:30.260 Unlike the parents.
00:40:31.300 Right.
00:40:31.760 Who are with them, what, a couple times a month?
00:40:33.880 Right.
00:40:34.220 Maybe.
00:40:34.720 Maybe.
00:40:35.140 And if you're lucky.
00:40:35.980 Men don't care about them that much.
00:40:37.080 Yeah.
00:40:37.420 I've got mine in a homeless shelter.
00:40:40.160 Is that where you put your kids?
00:40:41.680 I visit them once every six months.
00:40:42.540 Yeah.
00:40:42.940 Okay.
00:40:43.820 I'm like, hey, one of these kids is mine.
00:40:48.080 If you claim to be mine, come on down.
00:40:50.760 And then eventually one of the kids, you know, strolls down like, hi, dad.
00:40:55.640 And I'm like, hey, good.
00:40:57.180 Glad to see you're still alive.
00:40:58.540 Get back to the shelter.
00:41:00.260 And how could I possibly know what's best for my kids?
00:41:04.280 Well, you can.
00:41:04.820 And he loves, you know, civil debate.
00:41:08.500 As long as you agree with them.
00:41:10.780 Right.
00:41:11.240 He loves it.
00:41:12.300 We have civil discussions.
00:41:14.120 Mm-hmm.
00:41:14.920 Mm-hmm.
00:41:15.440 Get out.
00:41:16.960 Get out.
00:41:18.320 You don't care about your kid.
00:41:19.940 Only the teachers care about the kids.
00:41:22.060 And me.
00:41:23.300 And I count my time in education while I was going to school, too.
00:41:27.000 I was in education.
00:41:28.520 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:29.480 So, you thought back to school.
00:41:33.100 You thought that was going to be a load off your mind when you were gone.
00:41:36.100 No.
00:41:36.500 Mm-mm.
00:41:37.080 No.
00:41:37.520 Back to school with your kids?
00:41:39.020 Load off your mind?
00:41:39.840 No.
00:41:40.400 Neither.

00:43:25.880 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:33.400 Now, this is coming as a shock.
00:43:35.600 Please pull over.
00:43:36.580 If you're driving, I don't want you to just go into shock and, you know, drive into another.
00:43:42.060 Please, please practice listening to this show with safety.
00:43:45.800 Would you please?
00:43:46.480 Here's the shocking news.
00:43:50.100 Biden's disapproval rating has hit its highest mark of his presidency.
00:43:57.240 His disapproval rating.
00:43:59.080 It is, wow.
00:44:01.320 Not good.
00:44:02.300 Not good.
00:44:02.680 And so some are saying, Mr. President, you should resign.
00:44:08.880 Another amazing op-ed coming from the left saying, you really should resign.
00:44:17.880 Hmm.
00:44:18.680 I wonder if that would happen.
00:44:21.000 We'll talk about that coming up in 60 seconds.
00:44:23.280 First, last month, an enormous amount of data was stolen from two of the most popular casinos
00:44:29.020 in America, MGM Resorts and Caesars Entertainment.
00:44:33.320 Social security numbers, driver's license numbers, loyalty member cards included.
00:44:38.320 And while I'm sure that the cyber criminals involved have nothing but the best intentions
00:44:43.240 with that information, they could commit identity theft.
00:44:49.040 Right?
00:44:49.540 Everything you have is online all the time.
00:44:55.440 You don't wait for somebody to steal your personal information and steal your identity.
00:44:59.740 Start protecting yourself from it.
00:45:01.720 You just don't do that.
00:45:03.400 It's really important to understand that there are measures that you can take right now to
00:45:09.060 help it keep it from happening.
00:45:11.600 And this is LifeLock by Norton.
00:45:14.200 LifeLock.
00:45:15.020 If you install LifeLock, you can save so much money and hassle.
00:45:18.780 Nobody can stop everything.
00:45:20.420 But LifeLock by Norton is the best in the business.

00:45:43.560 Glenn.
00:45:45.100 Thanks for sitting in.
00:45:46.800 Oh, Pat.
00:45:47.600 Happy to do it, Glenn.
00:45:52.460 Where is Stu?
00:45:54.060 Where did he go?
00:45:54.960 You don't even have any idea.
00:45:56.220 He didn't even say anything to me.
00:45:58.320 He was just like, gone.
00:45:59.820 Thursday, just like, I gotta leave.
00:46:02.160 Okay.
00:46:03.700 Is he having surgery again?
00:46:05.240 Is he finishing off that surgery?
00:46:06.880 That's really...
00:46:08.500 President Biden's disapproval rating hit the highest mark of his presidency in a new poll.
00:46:14.560 What a surprise.
00:46:15.980 Also showed the support by essential voting blocks is slipping.
00:46:21.240 Biden's disapproval rating ticked up to 56%.
00:46:24.720 And I am shocked that it is that low.
00:46:28.900 Think about it.
00:46:29.480 I mean, honestly.
00:46:31.040 With the way things are.
00:46:31.920 Tell me what he has accomplished.
00:46:34.480 Honestly, and I mean this sincerely.
00:46:36.160 Can you think of anything that his, you know, his voting base would say, well, he did this.
00:46:42.480 Yeah.
00:46:42.580 They'll tell you he's created 13 million jobs.
00:46:46.180 No.
00:46:46.760 Which is BS.
00:46:47.580 No, but I mean...
00:46:48.260 Of course.
00:46:48.820 No, but I...
00:46:49.420 That's what they'll tell you.
00:46:50.260 But what I'm saying is, somebody that is actually...
00:46:53.520 Is there any way to actually have a real...
00:46:56.660 Absolutely.
00:46:57.200 There's nothing.
00:46:57.960 There's nothing.
00:46:58.780 Not unless you're a total moron.
00:47:00.660 A real buffoon.
00:47:02.020 You have to be...
00:47:03.420 You have to have all the intelligence of a bathroom bowl brush to believe this guy's
00:47:07.320 doing a good job.
00:47:08.000 Huh.
00:47:08.500 Yeah.
00:47:08.880 I would think that there would be something.
00:47:10.820 No.
00:47:11.200 No.
00:47:11.740 Nothing at all.
00:47:12.900 Wow.
00:47:13.100 Well, that's why he trails even in the Washington Post-ABC News poll.
00:47:16.840 Did you see the results in that?
00:47:18.500 Yeah, but it's...
00:47:19.180 42%.
00:47:20.140 52 to 42, Trump leads.
00:47:22.260 Yeah.
00:47:22.720 You think that's reliable?
00:47:24.760 It's Washington Post-ABC News.
00:47:27.440 And certainly not slanted toward...
00:47:29.020 No.
00:47:29.760 ...Trump.
00:47:30.240 Yeah, certainly not slanted towards Trump.
00:47:31.900 I mean, they have been wrong in the past.
00:47:33.400 Yes.
00:47:33.520 But all polls have been.
00:47:34.760 Yeah.
00:47:35.260 Yeah.
00:47:35.720 So maybe this is what...
00:47:36.720 Let's see it.
00:47:37.320 Let's see it again.
00:47:38.480 Yeah.
00:47:38.520 Yes.
00:47:38.660 Let's see it happen again.
00:47:40.580 I mean, it probably is an outlier, because he's probably not up by 10.
00:47:43.580 But I think that Biden's in trouble, and that's why you're hearing the scuttlebutt in
00:47:47.080 the Democrat Party.
00:47:47.920 Right.
00:47:48.120 You also have him slipping with voters 18 to 24.
00:47:51.940 Yeah.
00:47:52.200 He only has a 46% approval rating.
00:47:56.240 Latinos, 43%.
00:47:58.540 Independents, who are going to decide the general election, at 36%.
00:48:04.120 Yeah, it's not good.
00:48:05.000 Trump's lead in the GOP primary has surged ahead.
00:48:09.380 He is now leading by 43 points.
00:48:11.760 That is...
00:48:12.320 It's incredible.
00:48:13.600 Incredible.
00:48:14.620 Incredible.
00:48:15.620 He's the first choice among national Republican primary voters at 59%.
00:48:20.720 So, now, this is what you're starting to see from people who love Joe Biden, because, you
00:48:28.380 know, he was just out of the Congressional Black Caucus, which he thought he was at last
00:48:33.620 week.
00:48:34.580 Yeah, he did.
00:48:34.800 But it was the Congressional Latino Congress, right?
00:48:39.560 Yes.
00:48:39.860 Hispanic Congress.
00:48:40.680 Yes, but he called them the Black Congress.
00:48:43.260 So, I don't know if he thought he was at the Hispanic conference this time, but he was
00:48:49.880 talking about LL Cool J, who...
00:48:52.340 He's brilliant in it, too.
00:48:53.600 He's brilliant with it.
00:48:54.780 I think he's going to get a lot of support after showing how hip he is.
00:48:58.840 Have you heard it?
00:48:59.860 Yeah.
00:49:00.460 Oh, I haven't heard it.
00:49:01.480 Oh, you haven't heard it?
00:49:02.180 Oh, no.
00:49:02.460 I've just read about it.
00:49:02.960 Oh, it's really good.
00:49:03.760 No, it's good.
00:49:04.680 Yes, we do have it.
00:49:06.880 It is...
00:49:07.800 The two of the great artists of our time representing the groundbreaking legacy of hip-hop in America,
00:49:13.280 LLJ Cool J.
00:49:17.780 By the way, that boy's got...
00:49:20.580 Uh-oh.
00:49:20.820 That man's got biceps bigger than my thighs.
00:49:23.320 I think he's...
00:49:24.100 Wait, what?
00:49:25.640 And MC Light.
00:49:26.780 Both of you.
00:49:27.460 Thank you.
00:49:27.960 Okay, so LLJ Cool J.
00:49:32.800 J.
00:49:33.220 He knows him.
00:49:34.400 He loves him.
00:49:35.040 Oh, he loves him.
00:49:35.820 He's got all his earlier works.
00:49:37.880 Can I ask?
00:49:38.840 Mm-hmm.
00:49:40.540 When he sees somebody, a man in particular...
00:49:45.320 Yes.
00:49:46.040 This is a thing now.
00:49:47.300 Always?
00:49:47.700 Always.
00:49:48.580 Every time he has to mention their biceps.
00:49:52.940 Yeah.
00:49:53.340 Or feel them.
00:49:54.780 Yeah.
00:49:54.960 Or say that, I wish I had you as my...
00:49:58.720 I'm blocking for me when I was...
00:50:01.560 Because you're really hot.
00:50:06.020 I mean...
00:50:07.220 Really hot.
00:50:08.480 Yeah.
00:50:08.800 Wow, I haven't heard the really hot part.
00:50:10.840 Well, I'll find it and play it for you.
00:50:12.860 Okay.
00:50:14.100 That's incredible.
00:50:15.200 And then, again, with the boy.
00:50:18.640 Yeah.
00:50:19.320 And he does that all the time.
00:50:20.600 But he caught himself this time.
00:50:21.980 Did you notice that?
00:50:23.320 That boy...
00:50:25.200 Man, I'm not a racist.
00:50:26.960 Wait a minute.
00:50:27.520 I just showed my racist tendencies there.
00:50:30.620 Man, I meant...
00:50:31.900 Wow.
00:50:33.200 Amazing.
00:50:33.800 Wow.
00:50:34.060 It's amazing.
00:50:35.220 And then, to screw up his name when it's in front of him in the teleprompter, I don't
00:50:40.300 understand that.
00:50:41.700 You know they went over this with him.
00:50:43.420 You know they did.
00:50:44.280 Because his aides prepare him for this stuff.
00:50:48.440 He has aides?
00:50:50.520 Not that kind of aides.
00:50:51.740 Oh, okay.
00:50:52.260 Yeah.
00:50:52.500 The people who help him, maybe that's a better way to put it.
00:50:55.060 He's sicker than I thought.
00:50:56.600 Yeah, I know.
00:50:57.080 He does not have a...
00:50:57.920 Okay, thank you.
00:50:58.140 So far as I know, he does not.
00:50:59.460 But to then screw up the name, what is the deal?
00:51:04.980 How big do they have to make the font for this guy?
00:51:07.940 I mean...
00:51:08.620 I mean, as a guy who screws up names all the time, I'm not gonna...
00:51:11.960 But please!
00:51:12.500 But LL Cool J is not hard.
00:51:16.060 It's not that hard.
00:51:16.660 It's not that hard.
00:51:17.280 Yeah, okay.
00:51:18.140 Well, he's hip.
00:51:19.300 Anyway, there is a...
00:51:21.820 There's an opinion now from Newsweek.
00:51:25.140 Mr. President, you're going to lose to Trump.
00:51:27.400 We're begging you to step down.
00:51:30.400 Wow.
00:51:30.780 This is Newsweek.
00:51:31.600 Listen to this.
00:51:32.180 Wow.
00:51:32.500 The old rule about incumbents was that if they're under 50 points in approval, they're toast.
00:51:38.100 President Joe Biden is under 40.
00:51:41.100 There's almost no chance he's going to win.
00:51:43.740 I've never heard of an incumbent pulling under 40 points who went to win the re-election.
00:51:50.060 When it comes to Joe Biden, three in six recent polls had him in the 30s.
00:51:54.540 In one recent poll, President Biden was an abysmal 32%.
00:51:59.080 Sorry, but that's unrecoverable.
00:52:02.600 You're just telling yourself sweet little lies if you think he can win with those numbers.
00:52:08.420 I know what everyone in Washington is going to say next.
00:52:11.960 But that's not fair.
00:52:13.600 He passed so many bills.
00:52:15.820 No one's passed this much legislation since Grover Cleveland or something.
00:52:20.860 He passed the semiconductor bill.
00:52:23.380 I got bad news for you.
00:52:25.760 If you're a Democrat, no one cares about the semiconductor bill or any of the other bills that helped his donors so much.
00:52:33.720 And coincidentally, a couple of other Americans as well.
00:52:37.600 Even if you love those bills, no American even knows about them.
00:52:42.740 On the other hand, if you're a Republican, Biden is a godsend, especially if you're MAGA.
00:52:50.880 There is no way Trump can beat anyone else.
00:52:54.560 Another poll found that 59% of Americans think Trump should end his campaign immediately and quit life.
00:53:02.940 And quit life or quit for life?
00:53:05.940 What do you mean quit life?
00:53:07.200 Okay, they didn't say the last part.
00:53:09.960 No, that's what he meant.
00:53:10.960 But they might have well have said it.
00:53:13.680 I've never seen a number that bad.
00:53:16.060 In that same poll, Trump came in at an abysmal 33% approval.
00:53:21.320 And how did Biden do in that poll?
00:53:24.580 Worse.
00:53:25.880 At 32.
00:53:27.860 MAGA should be doing everything they can to keep Biden in the race.
00:53:32.760 He's their only hope.
00:53:35.380 President Biden needs to step down immediately.
00:53:37.320 This is Newsweek needs to step down immediately and give someone else a chance to do what they what they will.
00:53:46.340 And certainly they'll be able to accomplish a trounce of Trump in 2024.
00:53:52.000 I'm a progressive.
00:53:53.340 So even if I get my wish and President Biden were to step down, I'm not overly fond of any of the corporate Democrats we have to choose from.
00:54:03.520 But if you're being honest, they would at least all beat Trump with a stick.
00:54:08.360 Not because they're so great, but because Trump is infinitely worse and the American people know it.
00:54:14.860 Trump is also polling at 33% and six out of 10 Americans despise him.
00:54:19.980 Yet Biden is still losing to him.
00:54:23.340 If you spend any time listening to people in the power of politics or media, you'll have heard some version of the talking point that Joe Biden is the only one that can beat Trump.
00:54:35.120 It's nonsense.
00:54:36.700 Based on what the data is and what they're I don't understand how they're making this claim.
00:54:42.980 The truth is the exact opposite.
00:54:45.800 Biden is the only person who can't beat Trump.
00:54:49.240 My left foot could beat Trump.
00:54:51.840 An open dumpster fire can beat Trump.
00:54:55.840 This is when the D.C. establishment will huff.
00:54:59.500 He beat him last time.
00:55:01.020 Yes, Joe Biden won the Electoral College by 44,000 votes in three swing states.
00:55:07.000 You know what that means?
00:55:08.120 It means he almost lost to a complete buffoon who said we should inject disinfectants into our bodies to cure COVID.
00:55:16.180 This is so maddening.
00:55:17.560 It is Biden won by the skin of his teeth to that ignoramus.
00:55:22.300 And that was when he was 10 to 15 points higher in approval.
00:55:27.920 Let that sink in.
00:55:29.440 He was at least 10 points higher and he barely won last time.
00:55:34.560 Spare me the useless talking point of how he won by 7 million votes.
00:55:38.600 That's true, but you wanted that to matter.
00:55:44.060 Maybe you should have passed the Freedom to Vote Act.
00:55:48.200 Wow.
00:55:49.460 Jeez.
00:55:49.900 But President Biden barely tried.
00:55:52.360 His donors apparently didn't press him on that one.
00:55:54.700 And God help the Democrats if the Republican nominee isn't Donald Trump.
00:55:58.220 Then Biden has mathematically a 0% chance of winning.
00:56:02.940 Not even close.
00:56:03.900 Not within miles of close.
00:56:06.240 Joe Biden sees the same numbers we see.
00:56:08.660 His team puts out talking points about how this is the most important election of our lifetime.
00:56:13.400 How democracy is on the line.
00:56:15.280 They're right.
00:56:15.880 Yet Biden sees the same devastating polling results we see and concludes his ego concludes that he is more important than the election.
00:56:26.280 And according to his own logic, democracy itself.
00:56:30.040 I'm putting forward a petition asking Joe Biden to drop out of the race because unlike the president, I actually do believe democracy is on the line.
00:56:38.480 I don't want to go into that fateful election with a hobbled candidate whose chances of winning are so low.
00:56:44.520 Why would we voluntarily make that mistake?
00:56:48.120 You can hate the messenger and you can think that an incumbent can win even though they're in the 30s in approval.
00:56:54.820 But that isn't going to change the inevitable.
00:56:57.660 Joe Biden is going to lose this election.
00:57:00.720 We need a new candidate.
00:57:02.800 What are people going to understand?
00:57:04.640 We're not a democracy.
00:57:06.940 Never.
00:57:07.280 That's what you pulled out of it.
00:57:08.640 They're not.
00:57:09.040 That's what I pulled out of it.
00:57:09.800 They're not.
00:57:10.020 That's what you pulled out of it.
00:57:11.220 That's part of what I pulled out.
00:57:12.760 Yeah.
00:57:12.880 It drives me out of my mind.
00:57:15.040 I know it does.
00:57:15.980 Out of my mind.
00:57:17.080 Drives them crazy too.
00:57:18.480 I'm with you.
00:57:19.300 Adults should understand that.
00:57:20.760 I got it.
00:57:21.560 I got it.
00:57:22.320 I got it.
00:57:23.080 But the other thing is, I think Biden's their best chance even though he's so compromised.
00:57:31.720 If Gavin Newsom gets into this race, I think he loses by even more than Biden would.
00:57:37.780 Because you've got California as an example.
00:57:39.920 I mean, California is a, talk about a dumpster fire.
00:57:44.240 That's the very definition of a dumpster fire.
00:57:46.840 Show the city, show Los Angeles and San Francisco and what those cities have become under this guy.
00:57:52.120 I think a Republican crushes Gavin Newsom.
00:57:55.960 What do you say about Michelle Obama?
00:57:58.540 Oh, that's, that's the one problem spot where if she decides to run, she wins.
00:58:05.700 That's my fear.
00:58:07.360 And she's maybe worse than Joe Biden.
00:58:10.860 Not even maybe.
00:58:12.040 Yes.
00:58:12.280 Oh no, she is.
00:58:13.580 Except for the fact that I think she has her faculties.
00:58:15.900 But those faculties are frightening because she hates America.
00:58:20.100 Yeah.
00:58:20.320 And she's a Marxist.
00:58:22.880 Yeah.
00:58:23.160 Oh yeah.
00:58:23.320 She's definitely, she's much more hardcore than her, than her husband.
00:58:27.300 Yes.
00:58:27.660 She's, she's Hillary Clinton on steroids.
00:58:31.060 So yeah, I'm very much hopeful that she still isn't interested in running for office.
00:58:37.040 I'm with you on that hope.
00:58:38.200 I hope we can dream.
00:58:39.540 We can dream.
00:58:40.440 This may come as quite a shock to you, but I'm not an expert on everything.
00:58:44.740 No, I'm not.
00:58:45.460 In fact, there are quite a, quite a few areas of life I'm completely clueless, clueless about.
00:58:50.500 And one of those used to be how to buy and sell houses.
00:58:54.520 In my line of work, I've had a lot of that because for a while there, I couldn't really keep a job.
00:59:00.320 And it used to frustrate me to no end because I didn't know how to find the most competent agent.
00:59:07.720 No idea what to do about it.
00:59:09.780 I started real estate agents, I trust.com company.
00:59:13.260 I started years ago with my brother and we'll pair you up with the best real estate agents in the area.
00:59:18.400 If you're moving from and then the one you're moving to people who are the people that know the real estate game inside and out.
00:59:26.000 Now, how could I do that?
00:59:27.260 How could I start this company?
00:59:28.580 I didn't even know what it took because I spent about five years working with the 500 best real estate agents in the country.
00:59:37.340 According to the Wall Street Journal, I learned from them.
00:59:40.740 Many of them are referred to you as somebody that can help you buy or sell your house.
00:59:49.940 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:59:51.220 Go there, find the right real estate agent for you.
00:59:54.940 Realestateagentsitrust.com.
00:59:56.580 The name says it all.
00:59:58.160 10 seconds.
00:59:58.780 Station ID.
00:59:59.240 So, you don't think Gavin Newsom would win?
01:00:15.400 I don't.
01:00:16.400 I really don't.
01:00:18.360 He's got too bad a track record.
01:00:21.060 If you compared that against anybody in the country, but especially Florida, you've got no chance.
01:00:29.040 Not sure I agree with you.
01:00:30.040 Have you seen San Francisco?
01:00:31.600 Have you seen Los Angeles?
01:00:33.080 Oh, no, I have.
01:00:33.380 I have.
01:00:33.820 Do you know that, what, three million people left the state under his watch?
01:00:39.240 Oh, I do.
01:00:40.080 I do.
01:00:41.240 But there's a lot of people that will just say anybody but Trump.
01:00:46.560 Yeah, they will.
01:00:47.360 Yeah, that's true.
01:00:48.100 And they haven't had their lives destroyed by Gavin Newsom.
01:00:50.960 Only Californians have.
01:00:52.380 Yeah.
01:00:52.960 But Californians, I think they understand it.
01:00:56.760 I don't know if they care about it, but they understand what he's done to their state.
01:01:00.980 And that's why so many of them left and came here.
01:01:06.460 I just think that Gavin Newsom, what he did over the weekend was so important.
01:01:11.920 Oh, that was definitely a calculated move.
01:01:14.440 Oh, big time.
01:01:15.620 Absolutely a national move, not a California move.
01:01:18.500 Yeah, there's no way.
01:01:19.500 I mean, there's no way.
01:01:21.020 No.
01:01:21.980 Democrats, here's another story from The Hill.
01:01:24.740 Democrats who believe former President Trump is unelectable in 2024 may have to pin their
01:01:29.780 hopes on his personality and past conduct rather than his actual policies.
01:01:36.940 Trump may simply be too disliked by too many people to prevail in a general election.
01:01:41.960 And the combined weight of two impeachments, the legacy of January 6th and four criminal
01:01:47.600 indictments could sink him.
01:01:49.080 But it is noticeable that on three of the most controversial issues facing the nation, abortion,
01:01:55.300 immigration and the war in Ukraine, Trump is either trimming his sails into electable shape
01:02:01.360 or public opinion is shifting in his direction.
01:02:04.240 Some Democrats now worry that their party colleagues are being far too complacent about President Biden's
01:02:11.300 chance of victory if Trump is his opponent, given the multitude of challenges the incumbent
01:02:17.060 is facing.
01:02:17.940 This is something that I have not seen with an incumbent president ever before, ever before.
01:02:26.460 You don't you just don't do this to an incumbent.
01:02:29.940 Yeah, they are sending the signal party.
01:02:32.560 Yeah.
01:02:32.980 First, they're begging him to drop out.
01:02:36.260 Yeah.
01:02:36.460 His his supporters and the establishment in the press are giving him a kind exit.
01:02:45.060 You've accomplished so much.
01:02:47.300 You're so great.
01:02:48.520 You should exit.
01:02:49.700 Right.
01:02:50.340 The next thing is they begin to shove.
01:02:53.560 Right.
01:02:54.360 They're trying to do it gently right now.
01:02:56.260 Yeah.
01:02:56.820 And and who is the Washington Post reporter that supposedly a CIA insider?
01:03:03.940 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:03:04.640 And he sent the message last week.
01:03:07.420 You need to go.
01:03:08.800 Yeah.
01:03:08.960 And everybody knows that he's the guy that you would go to deep state CIA type that you
01:03:15.160 would go to.
01:03:15.960 And he wrote the article.
01:03:17.120 Yeah.
01:03:17.400 Time to leave.
01:03:18.320 Yeah.
01:03:18.520 You know, bless your heart.
01:03:19.680 You've done a great job, but it's time to go.
01:03:22.000 So that this is the Hill.
01:03:24.120 That was the Washington Post.
01:03:26.380 Yeah.
01:03:26.880 And it was Newsweek.
01:03:28.480 The one I read just for this.
01:03:30.600 I mean, there's a lot.
01:03:33.120 They're in trouble.
01:03:33.900 There's a lot.
01:03:34.360 I firmly believed he was going to be the nominee.
01:03:37.900 I'm starting to doubt that now they they might force him out, but they better do it
01:03:43.240 quick because there's a deadline in some states coming up in October.
01:03:47.220 So they'd have to do it right away.
01:03:49.000 What about giving Barbara Boxer's seat to Kamala?
01:03:53.800 Yeah.
01:03:54.160 Appointing a new vice president, Gavin Newsom, and then retiring.
01:04:00.980 I could see that happening.
01:04:04.660 I could see that happening.
01:04:07.340 Yeah.
01:04:08.080 Back in just a second.
01:04:18.220 The Glenn Beck program.
01:04:20.260 That was a trick.
01:04:21.400 I meant Feinstein and Pat walked right into it.
01:04:25.220 Anyway.
01:04:25.700 Anyway, life was a lot simpler before cars.
01:04:30.980 You know, we were just riding horses.
01:04:32.560 And back then, you know, you're a horse overheated.
01:04:36.500 You know, you didn't have to bring him to some shop to repair him.
01:04:39.360 You know, you just shot him.
01:04:40.700 Let's just say, yeah, bullets were cheaper back then.
01:04:43.040 Nowadays, a million things can go wrong and fixing it can be complicated and really expensive.
01:04:48.080 In fact, it usually is.
01:04:49.460 But when you enroll with CarShield, you're getting a protection plan that starts as low as $100 a month.

01:05:31.960 Listen to all your favorite conservative voices at BlazeTV.com, promo code Glenn.
01:05:37.280 So I've got, I've questioned many questions about Canada.
01:05:53.960 You know, I, I grew up right by the northern border.
01:05:57.300 Uh, and especially, you know, we had problems with the Canadians coming across that border, you know, in droves.
01:06:05.280 And, uh, and then just, you know, go into like the Kmart and Walmart and getting deals and then just coming right back across their border.
01:06:14.280 It was crazy.
01:06:15.420 Anyway, um, you know, I've always, I've always thought Canadians had some common sense to, I don't think that's still true.
01:06:23.460 Um, because some of the things that are going on, there's good news and bad news coming out of, out of Canada.
01:06:31.660 Ezra Levant is with us now.
01:06:33.320 He's a rebel news founder.
01:06:34.780 It's kind of like the blaze up in Canada.
01:06:37.020 He is the host of the Ezra Levant show.
01:06:40.000 Uh, and, uh, and he's here to tell us the happenings this weekend.
01:06:43.900 And let's start with, um, the big standing ovation that was, was given to a Canadian Nazi.
01:06:56.120 Ezra.
01:06:57.180 Glenn, it's absolutely crazy.
01:06:59.060 Uh, Yaroslav Hanka is the name of a former Nazi SS officer.
01:07:06.580 So I'm not just talking about some regular GI in the Wehrmacht who was conscripted and just fought in a tank.
01:07:12.560 I'm talking about someone who volunteered to be part of Hitler's elite Nazis in Ukraine.
01:07:19.900 Now he's 98 years old and he's been living a very low profile life in Canada.
01:07:25.860 So unlike some other Nazis, he hasn't been hunted down by the Mossad.
01:07:29.520 Imagine how surprised he must've been to receive a phone call that he would be the honored guest in parliament when Justin Trudeau welcomed Vladimir Zelensky on Friday.
01:07:41.440 And he was just like in your American state of the union address where they point the camera at someone in the audience and they give him a shout out and everyone gives him applause.
01:07:50.640 They literally did that for Yaroslav Hanka, a 98 year old Nazi SS officer, but they didn't introduce him that way, Glenn.
01:07:59.080 They said he, quote, fought the Russians.
01:08:04.460 Well, the Nazis did that.
01:08:06.220 Hitler did that.
01:08:07.480 That's right.
01:08:08.140 Amongst other things, you know, they also fought the Poles.
01:08:11.560 They also fought the Jews.
01:08:13.300 And this guy, Hanka, couldn't believe it.
01:08:16.080 He's been hiding in Canada for 70 years.
01:08:19.400 And then in the twilight of his life, he's cheered and he raises his fist and he gets a standing O.
01:08:26.880 But later on, and I did a little bit of digging here.
01:08:30.480 I thought, well, who is this guy?
01:08:32.240 And he was one of 2,000 Nazis that sort of sneaked into Canada after the war.
01:08:38.240 They went to Argentina and other Latin American countries and 2,000 of them came to Canada.
01:08:43.140 And don't tell me they didn't know.
01:08:46.220 Don't tell me you don't have a guest of honor at our version of a State of the Union address where the entire parliament is assembled.
01:08:53.840 Don't tell me when Vladimir Zelensky comes, they have a very high security vetting everybody rule.
01:08:59.820 Don't tell me they didn't know who this guy was.
01:09:02.560 They absolutely knew who he was, Glenn.
01:09:05.560 Here is the interesting thing to me.
01:09:08.600 They cheer in parliament an actual SS Nazi.
01:09:14.560 And yet they accuse, what, half of Canada, anybody who stood behind the truckers, they accuse them of Nazis and threaten to put them all in jail.
01:09:26.020 Well, that's a good way to understand Justin Trudeau.
01:09:28.440 He calls himself a male feminist.
01:09:30.360 But he admits that he sexually assaulted a woman named Rose Knight.
01:09:34.720 He just said, oh, she experienced it differently.
01:09:37.300 He calls you a racist.
01:09:39.680 But he's the guy who dressed up in blackface so many times he says he lost count.
01:09:44.380 He calls everyone he doesn't like a Nazi, including Jewish people.
01:09:48.000 He called a Jewish MP a Nazi.
01:09:51.320 He called a black MP a Nazi.
01:09:53.900 But he's the one leading the standing ovation for an actual Nazi, not Nazi linked or Nazi vibes.
01:10:03.260 This guy was out there with his gun obeying their Fuhrer.
01:10:08.180 And it's just incredible.
01:10:09.820 And the kind of mop up work that the media party is doing, Glenn, is just incredible.
01:10:15.160 And do you think for a second that Trudeau will stop calling people Nazis?
01:10:20.260 It's such a total meltdown.
01:10:22.720 Now, Trudeau's taken a day off from question period today.
01:10:25.440 Normally, he goes into Parliament and answers questions.
01:10:27.960 He can't be bothered.
01:10:29.140 He's got other things to do.
01:10:30.400 By the way, this is one week after he accused the country of India of murdering a Canadian.
01:10:37.680 And his deputy actually suggested that India might be sabotaging Trudeau's plane to kill him.
01:10:44.380 Canada is becoming a failed state.
01:10:47.220 We're falling apart economically.
01:10:48.760 The only countries in the world that we have stronger relations with now than we did 10 years ago are Cuba and Ukraine.
01:10:56.540 It's a mess up here, Glenn.
01:10:58.040 Same.
01:10:58.320 But it's well, we're going the same route.
01:11:01.000 I don't even know if we have good relations with Ukraine.
01:11:04.000 I mean, we're sending them money.
01:11:05.220 But I think they come over and they're like, well, you pigs, they still eat.
01:11:09.660 Give me more money.
01:11:11.900 Now, there there was some good news I saw on Friday and then again on Saturday.
01:11:18.880 Parents were marching, something you don't see in America anymore, because January 6th scared the pants off of people.
01:11:27.160 And so now they're not going out and marching.
01:11:29.520 But no matter what Trudeau did to the truckers, you had people out on the streets marching against what's being done in their schools.
01:11:38.740 Oh, it's amazing.
01:11:40.880 It was called the Million Person March.
01:11:43.920 It was parents marching to protect their kids from gender ideology in schools.
01:11:49.220 And here's the crazy thing.
01:11:51.080 The leader of this march was a Muslim immigrant to Canada.
01:11:55.520 And what's so interesting is some of the parents who care the most about their kids come from abroad.
01:12:01.860 They're newcomers to Canada and they have family values and they don't understand gender ideology.
01:12:06.900 I think the most iconic picture from those and I don't know if there was quite a million people.
01:12:12.840 That would be an awful lot for a country as small as Canada.
01:12:15.360 But there were hundreds of thousands.
01:12:17.420 We had 14 reporters in seven cities and it was eye popping.
01:12:22.620 It really was comparable to the trucker convoy.
01:12:26.000 The most iconic picture was a Muslim woman wearing a hijab, holding up a sign that said,
01:12:34.020 don't trust anyone who tells you to keep secrets from your parents.
01:12:38.680 It was something like that.
01:12:39.720 I don't have the picture in front of me.
01:12:40.960 And that's what it is.
01:12:42.160 Across Canada, our provincial governments are introducing laws that would require schools to tell parents
01:12:49.040 if their minor children were switching genders, changing their name, changing their pronouns,
01:12:55.860 just to let parents know.
01:12:58.180 Because until this point, it's being kept a secret between sex ed counselors at school and the kids.
01:13:05.480 And that's so gross.
01:13:07.180 Keeping secrets about sexual matters from your parents.
01:13:10.040 That's something that you used to arrest people for a decade ago.
01:13:15.120 So public opinion polls show that about 80% of Canadians support the parents' right to be informed.
01:13:24.160 But Trudeau called those people transphobic.
01:13:27.220 No surprise.
01:13:28.740 So where is Trudeau?
01:13:30.300 Because he's kind of, I think, kind of like our Gavin Newsom.
01:13:33.860 The guy's bat crap crazy.
01:13:36.440 And where is he in his cycle?
01:13:39.340 I mean, do you have a, do you have term limits on him?
01:13:42.920 And when is he up for re-election?
01:13:45.520 We do not have term limits.
01:13:47.680 He has been prime minister for eight years.
01:13:50.340 And his father, Pierre Trudeau, was prime minister for 16 years.
01:13:55.500 And I fear that Justin Trudeau wants to equal or better his father.
01:14:00.120 Now, there is some hopeful news, though.
01:14:02.280 He's had so many missteps.
01:14:03.700 And by the way, it all started when the truckers made him blink.
01:14:07.360 He overreacted.
01:14:08.720 He declared martial law.
01:14:10.280 He deployed riot horses.
01:14:12.900 He seized bank accounts of his political opponents.
01:14:16.200 And he felt pretty proud of himself.
01:14:17.900 But that marked, I think, the end of the honeymoon.
01:14:21.280 And he's been on decline in the polls ever since.
01:14:24.180 The latest polls put him 15% behind the new conservative party leader.
01:14:29.940 Wow.
01:14:30.460 Who, again, was installed because the truckers, because the old conservative party leader wouldn't even meet the truckers.
01:14:36.560 And so the conservative caucus threw out their old leader.
01:14:40.260 And they chose a leader who's got a little bit more courage.
01:14:43.080 So those truckers, I think, really not only helped end the lockdowns, but I think they put Canada on a more hopeful path.
01:14:50.720 Now, it's very dark right now.
01:14:52.080 But Trudeau is 15% behind the polls.
01:14:56.600 He's alienating so many different communities.
01:14:59.280 And I have to think that, you know, a lot of people were sort of in love with Trudeau.
01:15:05.320 And when you fall out of love with someone, it often turns to hate.
01:15:09.260 It's not just neutrality.
01:15:10.780 I think people feel duped by him.
01:15:13.560 People who were enthralled by him feel that they were tricked and hoodwinked.
01:15:18.660 They realized that he is an odious man.
01:15:21.520 He's an actor.
01:15:22.300 Like many male feminists, he was faking it.
01:15:24.860 I think he's going to be thrown out.
01:15:26.280 I sure hope so, Glenn.
01:15:28.020 Well, that would be good news for the United States as long as he's replaced with somebody better and not necessarily, you know, we could do worse.
01:15:35.420 I don't know how, but I think the devil has some time on his hands.
01:15:39.760 You know, I'm sure he would take the job in either of our countries.
01:15:43.980 Ezra, thank you so much.
01:15:45.200 I appreciate everything you guys do up in Canada.
01:15:47.800 Thank you.
01:15:49.140 Thanks, my friend.
01:15:49.920 You bet.
01:15:50.260 Bye-bye.
01:15:50.920 All right.
01:15:51.300 Let me tell you about Goldline.
01:15:52.620 Just when you thought it couldn't be another interest rate hike, the Federal Reserve comes out and says,
01:15:57.720 there's a need for another one later this year.
01:16:02.720 Oh, good, good, good.
01:16:04.900 Now, maybe you're comfortable letting this blind person juggling chainsaws micromanage our economy,
01:16:11.280 but frankly, it makes me a little bit worried because it's almost as if they have no idea what they're doing.
01:16:17.820 And I said, almost.
01:16:20.800 Yeah, I should correct that.
01:16:22.540 No, they don't know what they're doing.
01:16:24.420 Here's the thing.
01:16:25.140 The coming tide of economic problems is going to be severe.
01:16:30.940 Build a hedge around yourself.
01:16:33.140 Make sure that you have something left after this storm appears and then goes away eventually.
01:16:40.200 Goldline can help you.
01:16:41.100 For every full ounce of fractional gold Eagles purchased, you're going to receive a free 110th ounce Platinum St. Helena Trust Series coin.
01:16:52.000 This is available now at 866-GOLD-LINE.
01:16:56.200 866-GOLD-LINE or goldline.com.
01:17:00.640 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:17:02.940 Well, hello and welcome to the program.
01:17:22.460 There's a couple of things going on.
01:17:24.540 Rite Aid is going out of business, closing hundreds of stores.
01:17:29.100 It is mulling bankruptcy right now.
01:17:31.840 Gee, I wonder what could be causing that.
01:17:35.420 I have no idea.
01:17:37.420 Amazon has also announced that television shows and movies on its prime video service are going to include now limited advertisements.
01:17:47.860 I mean, isn't that what we were paying for?
01:17:51.820 Yeah, I thought so.
01:17:52.520 $8.99 per month or if you're a prime member, you get it for $14.99 a month or $139 annually.
01:18:01.100 I thought that's what we were paying for.
01:18:03.040 Yeah, that's the impression I was under is that $15 a month were so you didn't have to put up with commercials.
01:18:09.080 Now that's going up another $3 a month.
01:18:12.500 Well, $2.99.
01:18:14.240 So essentially, you're going from $15 to $18.
01:18:16.760 And that might not seem like a lot to many, but for my wife, that's going to be...
01:18:24.240 I'm not paying $18 to come and do this wrong.
01:18:27.900 What was she going to say?
01:18:29.500 I'm not paying $18 a month to come and do this wrong.
01:18:33.860 Yeah, okay.
01:18:35.380 Your wife is frugal.
01:18:38.180 She is frugal.
01:18:39.120 A little bit frugal.
01:18:40.320 Good word for what she is.
01:18:42.540 Yes.
01:18:43.140 Yeah.
01:18:43.540 Why do you say it that way?
01:18:45.160 Very, very frugal.
01:18:46.080 She's kept you out of the poorhouse.
01:18:47.540 She has.
01:18:48.280 She has.
01:18:48.860 Many times.
01:18:49.520 She has.
01:18:50.240 Many times.
01:18:50.740 The first time I met you, Pat's wife was making his shirts.
01:18:57.420 I met him first.
01:18:58.220 Not all of them.
01:18:59.000 Not all, but the one...
01:19:00.140 But many of them, yes.
01:19:01.040 The one I met you when you were wearing, when we met you, was a homemade shirt.
01:19:06.260 That is true.
01:19:06.920 And I thought that was...
01:19:07.860 That is true.
01:19:08.060 It was quaint.
01:19:09.600 I thought, no, that is really...
01:19:12.140 Wow.
01:19:12.740 You thought it was adorable, if I remember correctly.
01:19:15.040 It was adorable.
01:19:16.340 It was adorable.
01:19:17.220 Yeah.
01:19:17.560 So to say she's frugal is...
01:19:19.560 It's a massive understatement.
01:19:21.280 I'm not going to pay $18 to $18 to $18.
01:19:24.380 Okay.
01:19:24.980 Yeah, I know.
01:19:25.800 And you know what?
01:19:26.600 This does start to add up.
01:19:28.020 All the...
01:19:28.740 Does it?
01:19:29.260 All the services we have?
01:19:30.060 Sure it does.
01:19:30.740 Yeah.
01:19:31.260 What services do you have?
01:19:32.720 Well, we've got Amazon.
01:19:33.760 We've got Netflix.
01:19:34.580 Okay.
01:19:35.180 All right.
01:19:35.580 Disney Plus.
01:19:36.440 Yeah.
01:19:37.300 Hulu.
01:19:38.860 Blaze.
01:19:39.380 No, Blaze.
01:19:40.620 Obviously.
01:19:41.300 Obviously.
01:19:41.720 I get a little bit of a discount on that one.
01:19:43.400 Yeah, right.
01:19:43.960 Sure.
01:19:45.240 But...
01:19:46.600 Do you watch like the...
01:19:49.060 Paramount?
01:19:50.000 Yeah.
01:19:50.680 Yes.
01:19:50.980 Okay, so you're...
01:19:52.020 There's quite a few.
01:19:52.900 Yeah, there's quite a few.
01:19:53.800 That's adding up a great deal.
01:19:56.440 Yeah.
01:19:56.960 Do you watch movies on demand?
01:19:59.700 Yes.
01:20:00.360 Yes.
01:20:00.680 You do.
01:20:01.000 But, well, I try to anyway.
01:20:03.100 It'll be like the weekend and we'll be looking for something, desperately searching for something
01:20:08.840 to watch because we've seen everything.
01:20:10.740 Yeah.
01:20:10.960 So then I'll go to the movie, the iTunes movie thing, and click on something.
01:20:15.300 Let's watch this.
01:20:16.280 This looks really good.
01:20:17.540 I'm not going to pay $4.
01:20:19.120 Oh, great.
01:20:19.960 It's $4.
01:20:22.120 It's $3.99.
01:20:24.280 It's under $4.
01:20:25.780 You could go to the movie theater and spend much more.
01:20:28.440 Yes.
01:20:28.940 Yes.
01:20:29.200 And that's what I try to tell her.
01:20:30.380 But I'm not going to pay that in my home because it's crazy.
01:20:33.180 Yeah.
01:20:34.460 Okay.
01:20:35.420 Jeez.
01:20:36.480 It's agonizing.
01:20:37.600 Yeah.
01:20:38.160 Yeah.
01:20:38.340 It's agonizing.
01:20:39.180 Yeah.
01:20:39.340 You know how hard it is to find things to agree on?
01:20:42.760 Oh.
01:20:43.740 Oof.
01:20:44.060 Add kids into the mix and it's deadly.
01:20:46.440 It just doesn't happen.
01:20:47.520 It's like, okay, I'm not going to spend another 45 minutes trying to decide.
01:20:51.980 I mean, it's horrible.
01:20:54.160 It is.
01:20:54.720 There's got to be, I mean, you know, been here before.
01:20:59.640 There's got to be a way because people are going to start really having problems.
01:21:05.080 This is why I've said to Daily Wire and everybody else, we've got to figure out a way.
01:21:10.340 I don't care who gets it.
01:21:11.420 I'm not trying to make money off of Ben Shapiro or anything else, but we've got to figure out
01:21:17.100 a way where we can come together and have a package for everybody, but nobody will do
01:21:23.840 it.
01:21:24.420 Nobody will do it.
01:21:25.580 Nobody will do it.
01:21:26.900 Yes.
01:21:27.740 And it's like, guys.
01:21:28.540 With the writing on the wall like it is?
01:21:30.400 I think.
01:21:31.300 I think.
01:21:31.780 Because you're going to have to start making choices.
01:21:33.880 Yeah.
01:21:34.120 You know, people already have.
01:21:35.700 Yeah.
01:21:35.900 You know, what are you going to get rid of?
01:21:37.120 Well, and you talked about the censorship earlier in the show and what's happening.
01:21:41.420 The people being canceled, they could easily do the same thing to a full network.
01:21:45.800 They could shut down the full network because of what you're.
01:21:48.780 So that's why you created the blaze.
01:21:50.840 Right.
01:21:51.100 So they couldn't get to us.
01:21:52.340 Right.
01:21:53.120 You've got to have a place.
01:21:54.520 Right.
01:21:54.840 Where free speech is still a thing.
01:21:57.120 And that's, you know, that's the blaze.
01:21:58.980 And I hope you join us.
01:22:00.800 Because I know, I know money is.
01:22:03.560 Every time you open your wallet, it sounds.
01:22:05.420 I'm not going to pay $8.
01:22:06.900 I'll pay your money.
01:22:07.760 I'll pay your money.
01:22:08.180 Yeah.
01:22:08.740 Sounds exactly like.
01:22:10.300 Yeah.
01:22:10.580 Every time you open the wallet.
01:22:11.940 Yep.
01:22:12.260 So I know it's expensive.
01:22:13.420 But, but join us at blaze tv.com blaze tv.com.
01:22:18.980 Uh, and, uh, seriously, the alternative is that you don't hear conservative voices anymore.
01:22:26.520 That's what they're doing to, uh, Elon Musk right now, what they're doing to Russell Brand.
01:22:33.800 Yeah.
01:22:34.360 And they did somebody else to this weekend that they started to attack.
01:22:38.240 I mean, they're just, they're just one by one, picking us off one by one.
01:22:43.240 We got to stand together.
01:22:45.380 Uh, blaze tv.com join us now and save use the promo code, uh, Glenn and save blaze tv.com slash Glenn promo and the Glenn back program a little while ago.
01:23:01.160 Um, you know, I was talking to a friend and they said, Hey, do you know?
01:23:04.680 And I said, you know, you can find whatever you want, wherever you are.
01:23:08.700 If you go to this new website called public square.com.
01:23:11.840 And this is, if you remember Stu or Pat, you were there.
01:23:15.180 Um, this is very much like the marketplace that I started when we started the blaze, except it was just too, it was too early, uh, for anything like that.

01:24:40.900 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:25:05.820 This is the Glenn Beck program.
01:25:13.240 Hello, America.
01:25:15.320 Gentlemen, I know 80% of you are already thinking about the Roman empire, but we're going to talk about the Roman empire in 60 seconds.
01:25:27.760 Shooting guns is actually a lot of fun.
01:25:30.700 Um, now you could tell that to your California friend and they're, they're not blessed their heart.
01:25:35.360 They just don't think so, but it is, but it's not only just fun.
01:25:39.660 It's serious and an important responsibility.
01:25:43.580 If you're a gun owner, you have to do this.
01:25:46.020 You need to be proficient with your firearms, the ones that you own.
01:25:49.340 And that requires a lot of practice, but with ammunition prices going through the roof, you know, do you have time and the resources to go to the gun range?
01:25:58.460 This is why I recommend you get the Mantis X Mantis X high tech, easy to use system, widely used by the military and helps improve your shooting quickly.
01:26:10.740 You attach it to the, uh, the, the, uh, barrel of the firearm, connect it with an app on your smartphone or your tablet.
01:26:18.100 And then whether you're firing actual rounds or even dry fire practicing, it'll give you instant feedback on what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong.
01:26:27.160 And then how to correct that 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes.
01:26:33.400 Uh, when I went to the range after using Mantis X for a while, I could not believe how much better I was and how my skill had not perished at all.
01:26:43.420 It had actually gone up.
01:26:44.940 Start improving today.
01:26:46.680 Get your Mantis X at mantisx.com.
01:26:50.100 That's mantisx.com.
01:26:55.000 Spencer Clavin is a friend of the program.
01:26:58.640 His, uh, his father is a dear friend, uh, Andrew Clavin.
01:27:02.720 And, uh, Spencer is probably one of the more brilliant people I happen to know.
01:27:07.860 He wrote the book, how to save the West.
01:27:11.500 Uh, and, uh, we wanted to get him on, uh, today to talk a little bit about, you know, the Roman, the Roman empire.
01:27:17.520 Cause we've been thinking about it a lot, Spencer.
01:27:21.020 We have.
01:27:21.940 Yeah.
01:27:22.660 It's a pleasure to be back.
01:27:23.940 And I think this will fill our quota for the entire week.
01:27:27.000 You know, I mean, you are the, you're the one guy that probably does think of the Roman
01:27:32.640 empire.
01:27:32.920 I don't understand.
01:27:33.920 I don't understand.
01:27:34.820 I never think of the Roman empire.
01:27:37.500 I'm glad you, I'm glad you can admit that.
01:27:39.400 Yeah.
01:27:39.580 Yeah.
01:27:39.660 I'm glad you can admit that.
01:27:40.740 I said, put me in coach.
01:27:42.800 You know, I'm ready as I've been.
01:27:43.980 Yeah.
01:27:44.080 Okay.
01:27:44.620 All right.
01:27:45.080 So are we, are we repeating the pattern of the Roman empire?
01:27:52.580 Well, there's a good case to be made that the pattern we're actually repeating is the
01:27:58.420 pattern of the Roman Republic at its, at its very end, right when it became an empire.
01:28:04.320 We in America are a Republic.
01:28:06.480 That's how our nation was founded.
01:28:08.100 That's the regime our founders put in place and they put it in place for a very specific
01:28:13.360 reason because they had studied ancient history as well as more recent history.
01:28:17.880 And they knew that all sorts of forms of tyranny can come into place with all different kinds
01:28:24.340 of government.
01:28:25.120 You can even have a tyranny of the mob under democracy.
01:28:28.200 You can, of course, have the tyranny of a monarchy, which they had just escaped from.
01:28:32.040 And in order to preserve American liberty against those forms of tyranny, they created
01:28:38.220 this threefold government.
01:28:40.000 The three different branches of our government are meant to balance the different powers that
01:28:44.900 compete against one another so that individual Americans can be free.
01:28:49.620 The only way that you can destroy that kind of system is from within.
01:28:53.880 Republics die by suicide.
01:28:55.540 And in Rome, what happened is a very small coterie of elites, of well-heeled, rich, well-to-do
01:29:02.820 people got together among their cronies and conspired to deprive large masses of the
01:29:08.220 citizenry from their birthright, from the lands that they were supposed to have access to
01:29:12.180 after their military service.
01:29:14.140 And no, imagine that.
01:29:16.680 And it's impossible, of course, for us to think about this happening in America, you know,
01:29:21.400 a small group of elites getting together and rewarding it over the people.
01:29:25.540 That would never happen here.
01:29:27.080 No.
01:29:27.220 But of course, that's exactly what we're starting to look at.
01:29:31.020 And it's part of why guys like me, and I think you as well, you know, are so concerned
01:29:35.720 about the way that the Davos crowd and these, you know, sort of hoity-toity upper-crust
01:29:41.080 elites are trying effectively to take control away from the people.
01:29:45.540 So what caused the downfall of the Republic?
01:29:49.040 What was it besides the elites?
01:29:52.040 The people had to be probably like we are now.
01:29:56.640 That's right.
01:29:57.600 Well, this is part of why elite capture is so poisonous for republics.
01:30:03.960 You know, Machiavelli, the great Renaissance-era thinker in political philosophy, looked back
01:30:11.760 on the Roman Republic, and he said, were the elites or the people worse?
01:30:15.240 It's kind of hard to tell who was more to blame.
01:30:18.500 But ultimately, he said it was the elites who failed most because in their failure, they
01:30:24.020 not only discredited themselves, but the entire system that they were supposed to represent.
01:30:29.300 And that is also what happened in Rome, that public trust started to drain, to hemorrhage
01:30:36.520 out of these republican institutions.
01:30:39.040 And by the time the era of Julius Caesar came along, Plutarch, one of the great essayists
01:30:44.300 of antiquity, said, there were many observers who thought there would be lucky if nothing
01:30:49.460 worse than a tyranny emerge from this situation.
01:30:52.400 You start to get populist rulers who agitate the crowd.
01:30:55.740 It becomes very, very easy for one person or one group of people to effectively promise
01:31:01.880 the people that they'll give, you know, they'll give them everything they want.
01:31:05.600 They'll give them all their land, all their money back.
01:31:07.100 They'll just take it out of the hands of the elite.
01:31:08.820 And then you have a populist uprising, which eventually turns into a monarchy or a tyranny,
01:31:14.440 which is what you got after many, many years of civil war in Rome.
01:31:18.480 Yeah, I can kind of relate to all of that.
01:31:21.640 Where are we on this?
01:31:23.800 Where are we on this cycle?
01:31:25.740 Well, one thing I think it's important to bear in mind so that we don't despair here
01:31:31.040 is that this is not an ironclad prophecy.
01:31:35.860 These things don't always happen exactly the same way.
01:31:38.380 History doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme.
01:31:40.860 And so I would propose that in many ways at home, what we're looking at is this kind of
01:31:47.540 decay of a republic at the point at which the people begin to become fed up.
01:31:54.260 There is an enormous mass of populist energy, not just on the right, also on the left, with
01:31:59.560 people feeling that both political parties have completely failed to serve their interests
01:32:04.960 or even to offer them a solution to the problems that they refuse to acknowledge and in many
01:32:10.240 cases undertake to make worse.
01:32:12.720 And so that populist energy is now, I think, brewing in our country in some very dangerous
01:32:18.860 ways.
01:32:19.400 We've seen the way that, you know, when people take to the streets, as in 2020, for example,
01:32:24.020 things can get really hairy really quickly.
01:32:26.680 It doesn't mean that we are doomed, I don't think, to tear our government down to the studs and
01:32:32.900 institute a monarchy.
01:32:34.080 But it does mean that very careful and serious engagement with the legitimate concerns of
01:32:39.640 those people that feel underserved by the government is the only way for anybody to take serious
01:32:44.860 political power in this country right now.
01:32:46.680 And I think that explains a lot of what you're seeing in the presidential race as well.
01:32:51.120 Has anyone gotten to this point and turned it around?
01:32:55.660 Yeah, it's a great question.
01:32:57.240 We talked about this when I went on your podcast.
01:33:00.380 I mean, I think that the Romans got to this point several times before it all collapsed
01:33:05.980 and did turn it around.
01:33:07.300 And the way that they did that was by a meeting between the elites and the people.
01:33:13.100 Several times in Rome's history, the people clamored again in the way that they did at
01:33:18.580 the end for more rights, for more attention, for to be given what they believed was their
01:33:24.400 due as Romans.
01:33:25.760 And it was not that they simply, the elites then just rolled over and gave citizenship to
01:33:32.660 everybody that wanted it and just kind of answered every populist claim.
01:33:37.480 But they understood that they were now responsible.
01:33:40.980 They had what you might call now a noblesse oblige, a sense that as elites, they had an obligation
01:33:45.580 to listen to the voice of the people and to negotiate.
01:33:48.200 And one thing that's true about America is we are not going to get rid of elites altogether.
01:33:55.080 It's a mistake to think that what's coming up next is, well, we'll just have a bright
01:33:59.760 new future of equality for all.
01:34:02.120 In every respect, everybody's going to be the same.
01:34:04.060 There are always going to be elites because there are always going to, even in a meritocracy,
01:34:08.560 people are going to rise to the top.
01:34:10.260 The key is to replace our current elites who have no interest in negotiating with the people
01:34:15.880 with elites who have a sense of responsibility toward those people that they are elevated
01:34:20.780 above.
01:34:21.280 And that's that kind of negotiation can turn this thing around.
01:34:24.220 It did in Rome, men several times before the end.
01:34:28.000 And it could for us, too, if we have a little bit of help from upstairs.
01:34:32.300 How how do you convince people?
01:34:35.240 Have you have you thought about this, Spencer, on the the way we have been brainwashed?
01:34:40.980 I look at the 1930s and I think we are repeating many of those same mistakes.
01:34:47.320 And I never understood how the German populace could go from, you know, decent people with
01:34:55.040 a republic to 15 years later, the Nazis.
01:34:59.740 How did that happen?
01:35:00.760 I understand it much more now.
01:35:03.480 All you have to do is start pitting people against each other and and telling bigger and
01:35:10.440 bigger lies.
01:35:11.200 And people tend to believe them.
01:35:13.560 Right.
01:35:14.380 Yes.
01:35:14.940 I think about this a lot.
01:35:16.460 And it's something that is discussed at the beginning of Plato's Republic.
01:35:21.180 Actually, Socrates says, well, if you won't listen to persuasion, then I have no way of
01:35:26.540 convincing you.
01:35:27.300 If people are actually dead set against hearing because they've been brainwashed, then it becomes
01:35:34.320 very, very difficult to break through that cloud of lies.
01:35:38.240 But I go back again and again to something that Alexander Solzhenitsyn said.
01:35:42.220 And here's a guy who lived through a far worse version of this kind of brainwashing, you know,
01:35:47.480 dissident in the Soviet regime, a prisoner in the gulag.
01:35:51.160 And he gave a speech in which he said, live not by lies.
01:35:54.840 And what he personally concluded in that speech is that the only thing that can undo that kind
01:36:01.780 of spell of media deception, of educational brainwash, all of that stuff is a personal
01:36:09.160 non-participation in lies.
01:36:11.780 Every one of us that thinks that something is up, something is going wrong has to be forthright
01:36:17.200 and open about that because the hypnotism that happens when everybody is kind of towing
01:36:23.000 one dishonest line, isn't just about people believing these lies.
01:36:28.200 It's also about cowardice.
01:36:29.680 It's also about people that say, I think there's something wrong with this, but I'm afraid of
01:36:33.200 what's going to happen if I speak up.
01:36:36.200 Solzhenitsyn said that one man who refuses to say that lie can turn the world upside down.
01:36:42.460 And I think courage really is the virtue that we are most in need of right now.
01:36:47.300 It's not that you need to be brilliant and see perfectly to every truth that has been
01:36:51.860 concealed.
01:36:52.600 It's just that you need to state forthrightly what you believe, that men can't turn into
01:36:57.300 women, that socialism has failed everywhere it's tried.
01:37:01.100 I mean, these things have become incredibly costly to say.
01:37:05.020 But saying them is our only hope of breaking that spell of lies.
01:37:10.340 When Rome saved itself, did it have a savior, if you will, somebody who stood up and could
01:37:20.700 talk common sense to both sides of the room?
01:37:25.200 Because I don't see that on the horizon.
01:37:27.800 The way things are going politically, I don't see somebody that can unite everybody.
01:37:36.120 That is a huge problem for us.
01:37:38.240 I agree with you.
01:37:39.320 I mean, Rome did have these heroes that would emerge throughout time, and they really rooted
01:37:45.180 a lot of their history in these great men.
01:37:48.560 Some of them were from before the Republic, and then they carried on this tradition, people
01:37:53.120 like Scipio Africanus, you know, that they could look up to and who was rooted not in
01:37:59.200 his love of party, but in his love of Rome itself and in the service that he had given.
01:38:03.340 And one really important way that they encouraged this was that they understood that Roman citizenship
01:38:10.480 was not just a kind of good, a goodie bag that you got born into.
01:38:15.420 It was also a series of responsibilities.
01:38:17.400 And so they encouraged and honored people who went above and beyond in fulfilling those
01:38:21.880 responsibilities in showing bravery in wartime, showing wisdom in moments of political crisis.
01:38:28.020 One of our major problems in America is that we don't afford honor to people that do that
01:38:33.320 sort of thing.
01:38:33.900 We don't afford honor to honest people.
01:38:35.560 We don't celebrate honesty, or indeed, we don't celebrate bipartisanship.
01:38:40.380 All of these things are dishonorable in our public life.
01:38:44.020 And that's part of why you're seeing the failure of a lot of our leadership class.
01:38:49.260 It may be that this current class of leaders that is represented really by Joe Biden and
01:38:56.460 even to a certain extent by Donald Trump, that, you know, this is an old guard passing away.
01:39:01.980 It's taking a long time to pass away.
01:39:03.600 We may hope that, especially at the local level, in the way that red states and governors
01:39:08.220 of red states have succeeded, that there's a majority coalition growing who can find leaders
01:39:14.740 from a slightly younger generation.
01:39:16.720 But I agree with you that it's not hopeful among the people currently in power.
01:39:20.840 All right.
01:39:20.980 More with Spencer Clavin here in just a second.
01:39:23.500 Standby.

01:39:41.460 Yeah.

01:39:49.020 Well, I know that.
01:39:50.340 Yeah.
01:39:50.480 I mean, it's kind of redundant if it was like sheet sheets, so.
01:39:54.160 It is.

01:40:32.200 10-second station ID.
01:40:33.940 So, we're talking to Spencer Clavin, who is a historian, a great writer, and somebody
01:40:51.440 who really just buckles down and studies it so the rest of us don't have to.
01:40:55.440 And, Spencer, I have read that the society always starts to, when it starts to dismantle
01:41:08.360 itself, it goes into what used to be called sexual perversions, and men become much more
01:41:16.200 effeminate, and it's almost a loss of the sexes.
01:41:23.720 Is that true?
01:41:25.960 It's certainly a hallmark of this kind of dysfunction.
01:41:30.540 There's a guy called Rob Henderson who writes about what's called luxury beliefs.
01:41:34.760 And what I suspect is that this kind of extravagant, crazy, and totally unreality-based sexual psychosis
01:41:44.400 that we're going through, this is the kind of thing you can only indulge in when you're
01:41:48.060 rich, fat, and happy.
01:41:49.100 Then you can sit around and say, well, men and women, they're really the same, and they
01:41:52.740 can change into one another.
01:41:53.880 These things become incredibly difficult to maintain when the rubber meets the road.
01:41:59.840 And there's actually a story in Dionysius of Halicarnassus, who was a great historian from
01:42:07.320 the ancient world, who writes about a tyrant in a little island that was kind of obscure,
01:42:13.420 but who, when he took control, one of the things this tyrant did to make sure that nobody would
01:42:19.020 ever rise up against him is he ordered that all the boys should be taught like girls in
01:42:24.720 school, and that they should be made effeminate through their training.
01:42:28.340 And this is how he thought that he could stay secure in his tyranny, as if he kind of sanded
01:42:33.240 down the rough edges of masculinity.
01:42:36.200 There's a good argument to be made that a generation of weak and effeminate men is one
01:42:42.340 of the best ways to put a tyranny in place, to encourage men to abandon their aspirations to
01:42:50.840 manhood and masculinity, to shame them for trying to take sovereignty over their own lives.
01:42:55.840 These sorts of things are an excellent way to keep a population docile, and they're also an
01:43:00.800 excellent way to render yourself weak to invasion from outside, which is eventually what that
01:43:05.660 tyrant succumbs to, is that people who had not been trained under his oppressive regime
01:43:10.120 took up the call of manliness and overthrew him.
01:43:14.860 So, yeah, I do think that when you're sort of easygoing, when everything is looking great,
01:43:19.720 when you're on top of the world, you can sort of indulge in these obscure theories about
01:43:26.160 masculinity and femininity, but the less you have available to you, the less defense you
01:43:31.860 have available to you, the more you're going to start to realize that actually men need to
01:43:36.380 be men and women need to be women.
01:43:37.740 Boy, boy, boy.
01:43:38.640 I mean, everything you're saying is playing out.
01:43:42.100 Is there a place in the Roman Empire or the Roman Republic's history that we haven't repeated
01:43:50.200 yet, that you might say to yourself, when I see this, I'll know?
01:43:55.500 Well, Appian, who is the historian of this kind of period when the Republic fell apart, said that
01:44:04.280 when it was really over is when Romans took up swords against one another, because he mentions,
01:44:10.460 you know, before this, there were all of these different negotiations between the elites and
01:44:13.660 the people, but it wasn't until civil bloodshed in the era of the Gracchi, when people started to kill
01:44:21.060 their leaders in order to get rid of them, that things were destined to fall apart.
01:44:27.020 And whereas we have had violent riots, whereas we did, you know, have January 6th, and we have had
01:44:33.520 the riots of 2020 and all of this kind of political upheaval and uprest, formalized political violence,
01:44:40.340 where you decide who's going to rule by killing people, is when you really start to think things
01:44:45.840 are falling apart.
01:44:46.800 So, thank God we're not there yet.
01:44:49.360 Yes, we're not there.
01:44:51.120 Yes, I'm going to leave it at that.
01:44:52.480 We're not there yet.
01:44:54.200 So, I'd love to have you back on, because, you know, a lot of people are talking about,
01:44:58.700 you know, the glory days of the Roman...
01:45:00.740 I don't...
01:45:01.880 I'm not sure I know what the glory days of the Roman Empire really were, but maybe we can
01:45:09.220 explore that next time you're on.
01:45:11.400 We'll discuss it next time.
01:45:12.520 And there's a good case to be made for Augustus, but we'll leave that for another day.
01:45:16.740 All right.
01:45:17.140 Thanks a lot.
01:45:17.900 Appreciate it, man.
01:45:18.580 Thanks, Clint.
01:45:19.180 You bet.
01:45:20.240 Spencer Clavin, this kid is amazing.
01:45:24.220 I say kid.
01:45:25.200 This guy is amazing.
01:45:27.280 The son of Andrew Clavin, and his book, How to Save the West, is tremendous.
01:45:34.420 I was reading it.
01:45:35.560 Didn't even look at the author.
01:45:37.240 I was just reading it, and, you know, Spencer Clavin and I didn't even put two and two together.
01:45:41.200 I get about halfway through, and I bring it in to the producers, and I'm like, we got
01:45:44.620 to get this Spencer Clavin on.
01:45:45.920 And they all looked at me and went, this Spencer Clavin?
01:45:49.180 You know who that is?
01:45:50.520 And I'm like, yeah.
01:45:53.680 Of course I do.
01:45:55.240 Who doesn't?
01:45:55.960 Who, yeah.
01:45:57.000 Mm-hmm.
01:45:57.300 Do you think I'm a dummy?
01:46:00.080 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:46:02.540 Alicia lives in California.
01:46:04.160 She wrote in about her experience using Relief Factor to fight her pain.
01:46:07.120 She says, I'm a grocery store worker, and I work a lot of double shifts.
01:46:12.140 At 52, I don't get much of a rest from my bad knees.
01:46:16.440 For years now, I've literally been limping to and from the bed.
01:46:20.360 But I heard you talking about Relief Factor.
01:46:21.940 I thought I'd give it a try.
01:46:23.420 Glenn, just a few days into Relief Factor, and the pain has already decreased substantially.
01:46:28.920 I'm so thankful for this amazing product.
01:46:31.760 Alicia, thank you.
01:46:33.320 Thank you.
01:46:35.640 If you are in pain, and you want your life back, and you think you've tried everything,
01:46:40.740 you haven't tried this, and about 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.
01:46:46.400 So you might be part of that 70%, but you'll know within three weeks of taking it.
01:46:52.060 If you're not seeing any relief in three weeks, you're probably not going to see any relief.
01:46:56.280 But 70% of the people go on to order more at ReliefFactor.com.
01:47:01.240 ReliefFactor.com.
01:47:02.720 800, the number 4 relief.
01:47:04.900 800, the number 4 relief.
01:47:07.680 ReliefFactor.com.
01:47:09.120 Feel the difference.

01:47:19.500 Well, this is significant.
01:47:35.240 Bob Menendez addresses the bribery charges against him.
01:47:39.580 Let's just listen in just a little bit.
01:47:41.080 That is fascinating, especially the way he tells that story, and he's weaving it well.
01:47:47.620 And that was live.
01:47:48.540 Yeah.
01:47:49.060 Yeah, that was live.
01:47:49.700 That's going on right now.
01:47:50.820 Yeah.
01:47:51.040 You know what?
01:47:51.440 We're going to just check in from time to time.
01:47:53.620 You know, if something is breaking on that, we're going to check in right now.
01:47:57.200 It's the darkest day of having a super song.
01:47:59.480 Okay.
01:48:00.100 So, wow.
01:48:01.600 Phew.
01:48:02.160 We'll keep you up to speed on that.
01:48:03.920 I'm starting to lose track of all the people that are accused of bribery.
01:48:08.400 Yeah.
01:48:09.540 Yeah.
01:48:09.840 You know what I like?
01:48:11.080 What?
01:48:11.480 Not taking bribes.
01:48:12.920 I like that.
01:48:13.540 In a candidate?
01:48:14.400 You do?
01:48:14.820 Yeah, I do.
01:48:15.800 Are you that picky?
01:48:16.660 I, yeah.
01:48:18.100 Wow.
01:48:18.300 Well, I know I'm not voting for Poe.
01:48:19.940 Wow.
01:48:20.620 But I just hope I'm not voting for a traitor.
01:48:23.640 You know what I mean?
01:48:24.600 Somebody who just sell our secrets or-
01:48:26.580 Man, that's a pretty high standard, though.
01:48:28.200 Yeah, it is.
01:48:29.360 Somebody who has not committed treason is what you want.
01:48:33.760 Yes.
01:48:34.720 I'm pretty firm on that.
01:48:36.220 I'd also like somebody that doesn't have Swiss bank accounts or offshore accounts.
01:48:42.460 Huh.
01:48:42.960 What about gold bullion that they're getting from?
01:48:45.520 Don't like-
01:48:46.340 Where are they getting it from?
01:48:47.500 Well, from like Egypt.
01:48:48.740 Let's say it's Egypt.
01:48:49.780 No.
01:48:50.240 I don't.
01:48:51.020 I mean, from the-
01:48:51.620 In exchange for sensitive American information.
01:48:54.740 No, I'm no.
01:48:55.560 Uh-uh.
01:48:56.000 Really?
01:48:56.320 Yeah, I am.
01:48:57.580 I am against that.
01:48:58.920 Now, he did take gold bullion.
01:49:00.680 I mean, the only person you could elect would be the Pope, right?
01:49:06.960 No, I don't know if he's clear of all those things.
01:49:09.400 Yeah, that's true.
01:49:10.680 It's what I don't know.
01:49:12.900 So, we have Bob Menendez, who is the senator from the great state of New Jersey.
01:49:19.100 Mm-hmm.
01:49:19.560 Who would have seen corruption coming out of New Jersey?
01:49:21.960 Chairman of the very powerful Foreign Relations Committee.
01:49:25.220 Yeah.
01:49:25.480 He just temporarily stepped down while the charges are going on.
01:49:31.260 Well, they hung jury last time.
01:49:33.200 Hung, yep, in 2015.
01:49:35.260 So, this isn't the first time he's run into problems.
01:49:38.140 It probably won't be the last.
01:49:41.180 Well, it could be.
01:49:42.140 It could be.
01:49:42.900 Yeah, if he's convicted.
01:49:44.220 Yeah.
01:49:44.320 He could just wind up in prison for the rest of his life.
01:49:46.620 Right.
01:49:47.140 Which would be nice for him.
01:49:48.480 Yes, wouldn't it, though?
01:49:49.360 I would like that.
01:49:50.220 Yeah.
01:49:50.560 I would like that.
01:49:51.120 Uh, it's amazing, though, that even Democrats are saying, you need to resign.
01:49:56.280 Because, and I think that is because, not because they have ethics all of a sudden, or
01:50:00.600 they care about the country.
01:50:02.220 It's because he might lose the election.
01:50:04.100 He's underwater now against the potential opponent that would be running against him for the office
01:50:10.540 in New Jersey.
01:50:11.520 But, um, he only got $480,000 into his bank account from the Egyptians.
01:50:19.840 Oh, I see.
01:50:20.720 I look at bribery, you know, a lot more than $400,000.
01:50:24.500 Well, yeah, you would think.
01:50:25.540 Well, they did throw in some gold bullion.
01:50:28.140 No, it was just like a coin or something.
01:50:30.480 No, like two bricks.
01:50:31.800 Two bricks of gold.
01:50:33.540 Uh-huh.
01:50:33.740 Wow.
01:50:34.100 So, that's, uh...
01:50:34.900 Then he did get a Mercedes-Benz, but it was just a C-class.
01:50:38.100 Oh, well, a C-class doesn't even count.
01:50:39.760 If I'm committing treason, I'm holding out for S-class.
01:50:43.180 Yeah.
01:50:43.720 At least.
01:50:44.000 And even the $550,000 or $650,000.
01:50:46.020 Yes.
01:50:46.560 You know, and the A-B, something, whatever that system is that makes it even better,
01:50:52.500 I want that.
01:50:53.560 Then they put $70,000 into his wife's account.
01:50:57.580 But he didn't know that.
01:50:58.540 He didn't know.
01:50:59.240 Who knows what their wife is doing all the time?
01:51:01.240 He swears he's never talked to his wife about business deals in Egypt.
01:51:05.580 Or political deals.
01:51:07.080 Yeah, he's never...
01:51:08.260 See, he doesn't know anything at all about her business.
01:51:10.840 No.
01:51:11.100 She was just...
01:51:12.220 She happened to be doing business where he was doing business in Egypt.
01:51:17.060 And they happened to send that to her.
01:51:20.020 But he has...
01:51:20.840 What?
01:51:21.180 He didn't take that $70,000.
01:51:22.660 It was her.
01:51:23.160 Right.
01:51:24.080 I mean, who among us?
01:51:25.740 Who among us?
01:51:26.400 Who among us?
01:51:27.020 Hasn't had $70,000...
01:51:29.200 Put in your wife's account.
01:51:30.460 Yeah.
01:51:30.840 And you didn't know about it.
01:51:31.860 You didn't know about it.
01:51:32.640 You had no idea.
01:51:33.680 Oh, honey, you do...
01:51:34.800 You have a $70,000 bank account?
01:51:39.240 Well, of course I do.
01:51:40.480 Well, of course you do.
01:51:41.160 Sweetheart, I've got one.
01:51:42.740 Silly of me.
01:51:43.440 I've been working in Egypt.
01:51:44.900 I know I didn't tell you, but that's only because I didn't want to compromise you and
01:51:48.800 have to have you say, wait a minute, I'm working.
01:51:52.200 That might look bad.
01:51:53.480 Yeah.
01:51:53.940 You know?
01:51:54.440 Right.
01:51:55.240 And it's so much less than you got.
01:51:57.300 You got the $480,000 that was stuffed into envelopes and hidden in clothing and closets
01:52:02.760 and safes all around your house.
01:52:05.820 Yeah.
01:52:05.980 So he didn't even put it in the bank?
01:52:07.620 No.
01:52:08.240 Huh.
01:52:08.780 He didn't.
01:52:09.440 Huh.
01:52:09.560 Well, because that can be tracked down.
01:52:11.620 You know, if you're...
01:52:12.280 Well, sure it can.
01:52:13.480 You know what I mean?
01:52:14.000 Sure it can.
01:52:14.800 And you don't want that seen by others.
01:52:16.620 They might misconstrue it.
01:52:17.840 They might think there's something nefarious going on.
01:52:20.460 Right.
01:52:21.000 Mm-hmm.
01:52:21.340 I just haven't gotten to the bank yet.
01:52:23.140 Right.
01:52:23.440 With my gold bullion bricks.
01:52:27.400 I, you know, I'd like a job like that.
01:52:30.480 I'd like a job like that.
01:52:31.820 Where...
01:52:32.120 Where I just, you know, steal, like, your show prep.
01:52:38.160 Right.
01:52:38.600 And then I give it to somebody else and they give me a gold brick.
01:52:41.740 Mm-hmm.
01:52:44.680 I'm just saying.
01:52:45.760 Yeah.
01:52:46.200 America, I'm open to that.
01:52:47.860 Are you really?
01:52:48.240 I'm absolutely open to that.
01:52:49.760 You will take bribes.
01:52:50.780 I will take bribes.
01:52:51.780 To get to my show prep.
01:52:52.480 Yeah, I'll steal your show prep.
01:52:54.440 Really?
01:52:54.780 And give it to somebody else.
01:52:55.920 Now...
01:52:56.200 It's kind of interesting because here's a whole list of my show prep that I see in your show prep.
01:53:01.860 Yeah, I know that.
01:53:02.340 Mine's also included.
01:53:03.600 Yeah, I know that.
01:53:04.220 So you kind of got it for free.
01:53:05.360 I don't know that...
01:53:05.900 No, I'm not just taking it.
01:53:07.520 I'm not just taking it to use for myself.
01:53:09.520 I'd be taking it and selling it to others.
01:53:12.520 Okay.
01:53:12.800 Yeah, you got to add that extra step.
01:53:15.060 I don't have an offshore account yet, but I do have a closet and I can fit pretty large envelopes into the closet.
01:53:23.320 Do you have any socks that you can stuff cash into?
01:53:26.020 I guess.
01:53:27.020 I mean, I've never tried, but I'm new at this.
01:53:30.180 You could look in your sock drawer for cash.
01:53:31.900 Now, I don't have to do crack off the belly of a hooker.
01:53:36.460 Not necessarily.
01:53:37.800 Only if you want to.
01:53:38.760 That's optional.
01:53:39.680 Okay.
01:53:40.080 We'll give that to you.
01:53:40.740 And I want to do it only on Russian foreign nationals.
01:53:44.120 Okay.
01:53:44.740 Yeah.
01:53:45.220 All right.
01:53:45.720 Or Ukrainians.
01:53:47.760 Yeah.
01:53:48.480 That makes sense.
01:53:49.040 That would be good.
01:53:50.060 Or strippers from Arkansas, let's say.
01:53:52.660 Or that, you know.
01:53:54.400 But they tend to have babies.
01:53:56.280 Anyway, that's oddly specific.
01:54:00.180 So Menendez...
01:54:01.880 I mean, they don't have anything on him.
01:54:04.760 No, besides all this.
01:54:06.860 Yeah.
01:54:07.540 Besides the $480,000 they found.
01:54:10.020 Right.
01:54:10.460 The Mercedes he's driving.
01:54:12.640 The gold bullion in his possession.
01:54:15.340 Right.
01:54:15.800 And the $70,000 in his wife's account.
01:54:19.000 They got very little on this guy.
01:54:20.260 Right.
01:54:20.280 So what you're saying is there's no evidence.
01:54:22.800 Yeah.
01:54:23.400 There's no evidence yet.
01:54:25.720 No evidence.
01:54:26.260 No evidence.
01:54:27.400 No evidence.
01:54:30.560 This has got to stop.
01:54:31.920 If these guys can continue one after another.
01:54:35.620 Yeah.
01:54:36.340 To take foreign money.
01:54:39.460 I mean, it's not even like...
01:54:40.620 To do favors for them.
01:54:41.440 Yeah.
01:54:41.820 I mean, it would be bad if it was like, you know, coming from, I don't know, the Rockefellers
01:54:47.740 or, you know, the Dow Chemical Company or whatever.
01:54:53.360 Right.
01:54:53.580 But it's coming from foreign governments.
01:54:56.340 Really bad.
01:54:57.300 Really bad.
01:54:58.100 Really bad.
01:54:59.000 There's a couple of things.
01:54:59.980 That's one of the things.
01:55:01.240 The other is, can we stop electing people who have been mentally compromised?
01:55:06.940 It's just a thing of mine.
01:55:08.660 I might be alone on that where I want my elected officials, especially in really high places...
01:55:14.280 Are you saying Menendez is not...
01:55:15.980 To have their mental faculties.
01:55:17.360 No, I'm going beyond Menendez now.
01:55:19.260 This is a little extra thing for some other officials in our government.
01:55:23.820 You want them to be...
01:55:24.820 I want them to be fully capable mentally.
01:55:26.920 Well, what about Feinstein?
01:55:28.800 Yeah.
01:55:29.120 Okay.
01:55:29.780 She's not really, you know...
01:55:32.020 All there.
01:55:32.900 Yeah.
01:55:34.200 What about if we replace her with Kamala Harris?
01:55:38.040 If the president just says, Kamala, you are too important for this nation...
01:55:42.120 Mm-hmm.
01:55:43.140 We need you in a really...
01:55:44.880 Yeah.
01:55:45.560 We need you in that...
01:55:46.820 In another...
01:55:47.680 In another role.
01:55:48.700 Yeah.
01:55:49.240 Not...
01:55:49.800 A role that's not the vice presidency.
01:55:51.440 We called Canada, and they didn't have any room for you, but one in California.
01:55:58.120 Right.
01:55:58.640 But one...
01:55:59.140 Yeah.
01:55:59.620 And then you take the California governor...
01:56:02.580 Right.
01:56:03.000 ...and you move him in...
01:56:04.840 To...
01:56:05.480 To the vice presidency.
01:56:08.320 Huh.
01:56:08.840 Huh.
01:56:09.960 What an idea.
01:56:10.960 Yeah.
01:56:11.840 What an idea.
01:56:12.560 Because then you could get...
01:56:14.240 You could get, like, 10 years...
01:56:16.940 A term of, like, 10 years, not just eight.
01:56:19.720 Right.
01:56:20.520 You know?
01:56:21.480 Huh.
01:56:22.540 And then you have, let's say, that California governor maybe making sort of national moves,
01:56:28.260 like vetoing a bill.
01:56:29.800 Everybody knew he was going to sign, but then he didn't.
01:56:32.980 Right.
01:56:33.720 Because he's considering now...
01:56:34.760 That's weird.
01:56:35.440 That's just like what happened with Gavin Newsom last weekend.
01:56:39.080 It is like that.
01:56:39.780 Just a couple of days ago, he was supposed to sign in, you know, you will turn in your
01:56:44.120 children if you decide to do anything against having gender surgery.
01:56:48.820 We cut off her breasts.
01:56:50.440 Now!
01:56:51.680 And, you know, if you were a parent and didn't say, yes, sir, they'd take your kid away.
01:56:58.720 You could go to prison.
01:57:00.220 But he didn't sign that.
01:57:01.480 No.
01:57:01.920 Strangely.
01:57:02.320 That is strange.
01:57:03.500 Yeah.
01:57:03.820 Almost like he was preparing for something else.
01:57:07.460 Yes.
01:57:07.720 Like on a national level.
01:57:08.920 Like kind of a national thing.
01:57:10.440 Huh.
01:57:11.020 Yeah.
01:57:11.560 Or, you know, it is strange.
01:57:15.520 Inspector Clouseau used to say, strange.
01:57:19.480 Uh-huh.
01:57:19.980 Uh-huh.
01:57:21.040 Sure is.
01:57:21.540 And I think you know what I'm saying there.
01:57:24.300 Then maybe somebody talks Biden into resigning.
01:57:27.980 No.
01:57:29.260 After you've made those two moves.
01:57:31.620 No.
01:57:31.760 Why would you do that?
01:57:32.500 I mean, that would be silly.
01:57:33.220 No, he's beloved.
01:57:34.900 Everybody.
01:57:35.720 And he's vigorous.
01:57:36.720 His doctor said he's totally vigorous.
01:57:39.640 Yes.
01:57:40.120 For an 80-year-old man.
01:57:41.720 Yes.
01:57:42.340 He has the body of a 79-year-old.
01:57:44.960 Well.
01:57:45.520 But the mental capacity.
01:57:47.220 Of a four-year-old.
01:57:48.340 Or a 114-year-old.
01:57:50.040 Okay.
01:57:50.500 All right.
01:57:50.900 One of the two.
01:57:51.500 Good.
01:57:51.820 Thank you.
01:57:52.320 All right.
01:57:53.020 Let me tell you.
01:57:54.120 Oh, by the way, we got the numbers in from the border.
01:57:58.000 Oh, and they're good.
01:57:59.100 Yeah, they're great.
01:57:59.980 They're good.
01:58:00.580 He did his job.
01:58:02.760 Only 304,000 people came across the border illegally last month.
01:58:08.940 It wasn't a million.
01:58:11.000 No, it wasn't a million.
01:58:12.180 It wasn't five million in a month.
01:58:14.400 It was not five million.
01:58:16.100 So he's doing pretty well.
01:58:17.260 The border is secure.
01:58:18.860 Yeah.
01:58:19.500 I think you might be wrong.
01:58:21.400 I think you might be wrong.
01:58:23.900 I don't know what gives you that impression.
01:58:25.620 That's weird.
01:58:25.860 Well, how much did you say?
01:58:27.160 It's a weird take.
01:58:27.640 How many did you say?
01:58:28.700 Over 300,000.
01:58:29.960 It was 304,000, I think.
01:58:32.740 304,162.
01:58:35.740 But can you be specific on that?
01:58:37.460 I can't.
01:58:38.020 I can't get any.
01:58:38.760 Okay.
01:58:39.160 All right.
01:58:39.500 Now, I'm just rounding up.
01:58:40.700 All right.

01:59:39.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:59:42.160 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
02:00:01.340 Tomorrow is a big day in Washington.
02:00:03.840 They start debating four government spending bills.
02:00:07.920 The Republicans are preparing for this tomorrow.
02:00:11.220 Defense, state, homeland security, and agriculture.
02:00:14.700 I don't want them in really in any of those things.
02:00:18.640 Well, defense, but other than that, state department, no, not their budget.
02:00:22.980 Homeland security, no.
02:00:25.400 Agriculture bill?
02:00:26.700 I mean, I want to see what's in it, but I don't think they're going to be helping the farmers out.
02:00:31.980 They never do.
02:00:33.260 No, they never do.
02:00:34.000 I don't know why they'd start now.
02:00:35.140 Yeah.
02:00:35.280 So, they're also going to be, you know, maneuvering back and forth on Ukraine aid.
02:00:43.900 Republicans, um.
02:00:46.020 We just haven't given enough yet to Ukraine, you know?
02:00:49.620 Well.
02:00:49.980 That's my problem with it.
02:00:51.140 Let's just, everything that comes in, we should probably send to them.
02:00:57.360 Right?
02:00:57.840 I mean, let's put them first.
02:01:01.440 Even more than we're doing now, I mean.
02:01:03.600 Because they're only getting a few billion dollars a week.
02:01:07.660 Who can make ends meet on that?
02:01:10.500 Nobody.
02:01:11.140 Well, I will tell you this, that when I look at all the things that we have to do as a nation,
02:01:16.380 I think, can we issue some IRS guidance to taxpayers who might receive 1099Ks for ticket sale proceeds?
02:01:31.700 Scalpers, you know what I mean?
02:01:33.260 Wow.
02:01:33.640 How often have we talked about that?
02:01:35.120 That's been one of our main issues.
02:01:36.920 When I thought about, you know, all the things that we should fix, especially with the IRS, I'm like, go after the scalpers.
02:01:44.380 Go after the scalpers.
02:01:45.660 Yeah.
02:01:46.440 Yeah.
02:01:46.660 I think we've all had enough of the scalpers and the scalping situation.
02:01:51.460 Well, Taylor Swift has.
02:01:52.660 Well, then if she has, then so have the rest of us.
02:01:57.300 I think as Taylor Swift goes, so goes America.
02:02:00.560 That's my motto.
02:02:02.100 It's becoming more and more true every day, actually.
02:02:04.280 Oh, I know.
02:02:05.340 Did you see the coverage of her at the Chiefs football game because she was there to cheer on Travis Kelsey?
02:02:12.020 That's all I saw a weekend was her cheering.
02:02:15.900 It's weird now if they're dating because now each of them has a tight end.
02:02:25.160 Huh?
02:02:26.100 Pretty good.
02:02:26.900 Wait a minute.
02:02:27.420 Pretty good.
02:02:27.880 Pretty good.
02:02:28.320 I mean, for me, a sports joke, that's pretty good.
02:02:31.160 That's pretty good.
02:02:32.000 It's pretty good.
02:02:32.740 That really is pretty good.
02:02:34.340 Yeah, so anyway, thank you.
02:02:38.540 Better late than never, but it had to be done.
02:02:40.900 Well, not really.
02:02:41.780 So I saw that the president was coming out and saying that he's tired of high ticket sales,
02:02:49.960 high priced tickets for concerts that we should all be able to enjoy.
02:02:53.440 Right.
02:02:53.760 And that's why he is proud to announce the new guidance to scalpers.
02:03:00.900 And I thought, man, he is on it.
02:03:02.740 He has got his finger on the pulse.
02:03:04.480 Yep.
02:03:04.900 You know, he is going for the average person.
02:03:07.620 You know, gee, how am I going to afford this $4,000 ticket to see Taylor Swift?
02:03:13.640 And, you know, that's if I, you know, you know, if I get it from a scalper, otherwise they're $3,000 a ticket.
02:03:21.560 I mean, how much are her tickets?
02:03:23.880 I know she tried to keep them.
02:03:25.460 She tried to keep them down at one point.
02:03:27.820 I think you can get them for, you can get into the building for about three or 400.
02:03:33.020 Wow.
02:03:33.380 So you can't see the stage.
02:03:35.360 You got that going for you.
02:03:36.280 You're actually cleaning up.
02:03:37.380 Yes.
02:03:38.200 But you're in the building.
02:03:40.560 What do you want?
02:03:41.020 Sure.
02:03:41.560 Sure.
02:03:41.960 Now, I don't know if you know this, but there's rumor going around and the New York Times wants to squash this rumor about Ron DeSantis.
02:03:53.320 DeSantis, when he was at Guantanamo Bay, he would feed people insure with a tube down their throat.
02:04:04.220 And he would do it, I guess, just for kicks.
02:04:07.460 I'm not sure.
02:04:08.940 But this is from one of the detainees in Guantanamo Bay.
02:04:14.840 Ron DeSantis was responsible for it.
02:04:16.940 He said he tied him to a chair.
02:04:18.520 He was crying and screaming.
02:04:19.860 His tubes were shoved down his throat.
02:04:21.580 Wow.
02:04:21.920 And then he shoved down the dietary supplement insure.
02:04:27.280 And that's, so there's one guy.
02:04:31.000 They've checked with everybody else.
02:04:33.060 No, didn't happen.
02:04:35.220 But it did happen to this guy.
02:04:36.440 Well, he says it doesn't, but the New York Times is reporting saying, you know what?
02:04:42.160 Hey, I don't think so.
02:04:44.760 I don't think so.
