00:02:10.420
narrowed things down quite a bit i heard from a ton of people that this was the best uh look at
00:02:19.220
the candidates they had ever seen i think this is the new way to vet your candidates it was
00:02:25.500
really really good uh and you had one day just listening to these guys and they all revealed
00:02:33.360
themselves one way or another either you know for good or for ill but it was fascinating to watch
00:02:40.780

so our sponsor this half hour is relief factor gary is 71 he's a grandfather not only that he actually
00:03:25.340
actually just recently adopted his granddaughter and takes care of her full time i can think of a
00:03:34.120
president who might do that as well maybe learn from gary's example but maybe that's just me of
00:03:40.720
course i don't know if i want joe biden adopting a seven-year-old girl that might never forget this
00:03:45.440
anyway gary was having a hard time keeping up with her for quite a while because he was in severe pain
00:03:51.580
with his joints then he heard me talk about relief factor and it worked for him these days i'm happy to
00:03:57.220
report gary not only keeps up with his seven-year-old granddaughter but he is actually able to take care of
00:04:02.740
her full-time better than ever gary and his granddaughter they got their lives back three

bag of relief factor at relieffactor.com 800 the number four relief 800 the number four
00:04:33.760
so stew i have to start with this because this is uh something that is really heavy on my heart
00:04:49.320
uh it's going to affect everything i do today because i'm a little scatterbrained because of
00:04:55.540
this my mouth is dry because of this do you remember the day stew do you remember the week of shows
00:05:03.100
that uh happen in north north richland hills in uh texas just outside of dallas
00:05:12.100
and they were my wife and i going down to this little town called north richland hills
00:05:20.260
and this very very brave young girl i think she was 15
00:05:36.580
she she couldn't abort the baby and she didn't know how to give the child up
00:05:43.200
and that day when her mother found out she was pregnant
00:05:48.580
she happened to be listening to this program and tanya and i had been looking to adopt a child
00:06:02.080
tanya came on that day and we were talking about some reality show where
00:06:07.820
you could adopt a child and i said would you ever be on that show she says no you don't adopt them
00:06:16.000
and uh this woman who is in texas she just laughed and thought i like that lady
00:06:22.300
and then her daughter called her and said mom i couldn't face you i had to stop at a pay phone
00:06:35.620
maybe two years before when tanya and i were trying to get pregnant
00:06:38.820
and uh i never figured out how that worked but anyway
00:06:42.100
i thought i knew but she said no that's not the way we do it anyway
00:07:00.480
because we were both i said to her over and over again i can't wait to see your eyes
00:07:08.980
in my prayers i i thought i heard something along the lines of you ego maniac it's not about you
00:07:58.040
and i has i have been convinced that he was going to be a leader of men
00:08:15.560
he sees what happens to leaders in this country
00:08:29.320
ever since he was a little boy i stopped saying it to him
00:08:32.160
because he would say no no no no no and he'd get very upset i'm not going to be a leader i'm not going to be a leader or no i'm not a leader of men
00:08:46.900
i said well we'll just see what god has in store
00:09:06.900
when i say picked up i mean literally picked up his his friend is a lineman
00:09:28.280
and it would be hard for you to believe that i don't know
00:09:42.160
that means an eagle picked up your ball on the fairway
00:09:48.700
you know double eagle means it took two of them
00:09:51.060
maybe they were tossing them back and forth with their claws
00:10:02.700
the coach pulled him off the field at the tryouts
00:11:07.840
i could have thrown it over those mountains there
00:11:49.400
i'm gonna i'm gonna apply for a job to be on the radio
00:48:46.300
nothing but a rah-rah for president putin which
00:48:55.780
wanted to spend some time on tucker carlson because
00:49:33.300
testament and he said that's amazing the way he
00:49:36.620
was telling it is so funny when you somebody who
00:49:39.400
is actually actually read it and is interested in
00:49:44.280
reading it all of the things that they find that
00:49:47.840
they discover he's like this is the greatest it's
00:49:54.880
um and then he started on the old testament and he
00:49:59.640
is in leviticus now which is oh so fun but he's actually
00:50:08.380
i just want you to know god is using him there is something
00:50:15.600
different about tucker carlson uh and it you know we were not the
00:50:22.640
best of friends 10 years ago uh we didn't really know each other
00:50:27.300
um we respected each other for what we had done but we disagreed on a lot of
00:50:32.780
stuff and vehemently 10 years ago on a lot of stuff
00:50:36.940
that has changed uh and i and i think it became
00:50:42.080
because i started really watching him then in fox news
00:50:54.720
and god is using him he has moved on him greatly
00:51:04.940
really good is going to come of uh of what tucker is doing i think
00:51:28.440
and i've met with four that i think absolutely 100 percent get it
00:51:38.400
tucker is one of them uh he was very very clear on things
00:51:44.840
when he was asking i think it was nikki haley he said hey
00:51:48.220
did we blow up the nord stream that's something that i would ask
00:51:52.340
but i wondered as he asked it if i were nikki haley if i were
00:51:56.440
if i would answer that as a presidential candidate just because of the ramifications
00:52:01.660
of that as a presidential candidate so i asked tucker on this
00:52:06.940
here's what he said in our one-on-one interview cut one
00:52:17.080
absolutely blew up the nord stream pipeline of course we did yeah
00:52:20.160
absolutely did well yeah and and i think it's a big deal i mean
00:52:24.280
on many levels it was an environmental catastrophe
00:52:26.900
i mean like a profound environmental catastrophe
00:52:29.400
it's also an act of vandalism which i'm against
00:52:35.700
and more than anything it was an attack on our closest nato ally
00:52:39.320
germany which used that pipeline to fund its entire manufacturing center
00:52:45.120
this is insane behavior and i don't know why no one's been held accountable
00:52:49.260
yes we did it whether it was through poland or norway
00:52:51.720
a nato nation did it with our assistance and approval
00:52:54.980
and like everyone knows it everyone's afraid to say so why
00:52:58.760
can you say that i just did well no but i mean i'm unemployed
00:53:04.480
i mean as a i mean what are the ramifications of
00:53:11.100
and thank god that that uh russia has not retaliated
00:53:15.980
this is the biggest this is the worst act of war i have ever seen us make
00:53:31.140
it really is like i'm god i can do whatever i want
00:53:35.060
there are no consequences all the rules don't apply to me
00:53:37.580
and when you adopt that attitude when there's no humility at all
00:53:41.140
or long-term thinking this is you know people who don't have like a stake in
00:53:47.300
they just don't care and when they start to behave like that you can actually
00:53:50.760
wreck the whole thing you can take a country down doing stuff like that in my
00:53:58.900
completely determined to suppress the truth listen
00:54:04.300
and i really thought tucker and i don't know if you were
00:54:07.600
if there was a turning point with you there was with me when i realized oh my
00:54:13.360
gosh none of these people in the media actually care or are intellectually
00:54:19.020
curious at all they're just typing away doing their thing reading a
00:54:24.820
prompter nobody is actually saying i because i really thought
00:54:28.260
if i could make the case which you did every night you were making a great solid
00:54:37.740
you disagree you go well that can't be right let me
00:54:41.500
look it up let's do some investigative work on what he just said
00:54:45.420
they don't do that and that shocked me shocked me but then you have to wonder
00:54:50.360
why so it's like no one in washington or in the media is ever triggered is
00:54:57.280
ever outraged by a lie so i can come out here and tell the most
00:55:00.720
preposterous lies say the most lunatic things you know climate you're driving
00:55:05.700
a suburban is causing more hurricanes in florida
00:55:08.680
well they say that every fall right and that's like insane there's like there's
00:55:13.780
no evidence that's true there's a ton that's evidence is not true nobody cares
00:55:17.300
but when you say something true yeah that's that's actually true right
00:55:21.800
completely true people become hysterical and call for your murder and
00:55:25.780
certainly call for your de-platforming so then what conclusion do you reach
00:55:29.540
the media are completely determined to suppress the truth the true things that
00:55:37.720
matter that's kind of why they exist they are the gatekeepers that prevent
00:55:44.220
cut three here's tucker on what he saw at the summit and the candidates
00:55:50.420
that i found surprising when you got up this morning yeah did you imagine
00:55:56.320
that you would see not one but two presidential candidates light themselves
00:56:02.960
on fire in front of you when i get up this morning as every morning when i wake up i
00:56:07.920
don't imagine anything right i haven't had a drink in 21 years and
00:56:11.860
every single morning i wake up hungover i feel like i've had a quarter stoli and a
00:56:16.560
six pack of some rotten beer i just feel horrible every morning and so i put my
00:56:22.640
pants on a shuffle downstairs and got coffee and uh so i didn't think about it
00:56:29.080
asa scott who was the first and i really like i mean i like them all like
00:56:34.820
they like they're good with people that's why they're in this business so
00:56:37.520
i like all of them uh but no i i i do think that republican voters or the system
00:56:46.100
controlled by the republican party doesn't ask a lot of a lot of its
00:56:50.460
candidates it's like enough to say certain to repeat certain bumper stickers
00:56:55.240
from the 80s peace or strength lower taxes whatever right i'm all i'm for all
00:56:59.800
that by the way but they don't like no one ever gets
00:57:02.820
pushed very hard right and so it doesn't take much i was
00:57:06.560
certainly not acting on a hostility but if you're just like well what do you
00:57:08.860
mean uh and then people say oh you're so mean really you're trying to run my
00:57:17.280
country yeah do you know what i mean yeah it's like i live here i have four
00:57:22.320
children i can't go anywhere like what do you mean you're trying to run the
00:57:25.300
country and you're mad that i'm like trying to get you to be more precise
00:57:28.420
about your answers that you should have memorized already right because you're
00:57:32.120
presuming to represent me last cut this is uh tucker in my uh special on
00:57:40.080
blaze tv you can watch it it's about i think it's just over an hour
00:57:45.120
tucker and i just having a one-on-one uh he went on to talk about mike pence what
00:57:51.880
he was most surprised about with mike pence listen to this the mike pence
00:57:56.320
religious freedom stuff i have to say you know spun me up it did it did i you
00:58:00.940
can't can't be like well i'm for religious freedom except for like
00:58:03.700
priests who say things the government disagrees but they can be arrested
00:58:06.080
huh you know and it'd be fine if it was almost any and i'm i'm holding him to an
00:58:12.000
unfair standard but if you hold yourself up as a christian leader who's in favor of
00:58:15.880
religious freedom well then you kind of have to defend religious freedom whether
00:58:18.300
it's popular it's not no freedom nobody nobody has to defend my right to say
00:58:25.640
chocolate's delicious yeah okay if it's popular you have to and i don't think
00:58:32.680
even our side understands that i stand i i was uh when bill maher said you know i
00:58:39.520
think the uh the saudi or the the hijackers were brave braver than our five
00:58:45.180
fire pilots i disagreed with that 100 but when abc fired him i stood up for him and
00:58:51.500

welcome to the glenn beck program uh so reading some of the uh some of the reviews of what happened is
01:02:02.020
is amazing to say the truth uh uh or to say the least um the the summit that you saw hopefully on
01:02:16.800
friday or can see i think changed everything just absolutely everything on the way these things are done
01:02:26.540
we've always gone to mainstream media this isn't mainstream media and the difference was remarkable
01:02:34.200
would you agree with that stew oh my god yes 100 it was a totally different experience and i think
01:02:41.420
voters potential voters people on the right that are interested in the differences between these
01:02:46.660
candidates actually got something out of it which is so totally different than every other campaign
01:02:52.860
event that i've seen over the past 20 years like it it was like you got to see uh people pressed on
01:02:59.520
not the differences between you know conservatives and you know the left or what the mainstream media
01:03:05.920
wants them to be or some dumb scandal that the left has been obsessing about for years and years and years
01:03:11.860
and years and years and years and what was tweeted by this candidate instead what you got was a discussion
01:03:16.680
about the differences between conservatives which is of course how everyone in a primary needs that's
01:03:23.220
the information you need to make your decision done by a group of people and in this case tucker
01:03:29.080
carlson on stage that that uh are not fans of the status quo you know it was it was answering what
01:03:38.280
the people i think want to know the people who go to vote for republican time and time again
01:03:43.060
and are always let down when they go to washington and i i thought it was fantastic let me give you
01:03:48.640
some um comments graham allen said congratulations to the blaze for an amazing job showing the country
01:03:54.320
the future what a master class in showing that mainstream media is dying and needs to be put out
01:04:01.260

01:07:22.040
way home to pack and then on his way to college and i guess i i will see you at college this will be
01:07:28.980
the last time i see you well yeah you won't see me probably till either abilene christian when we come
01:07:34.040
down and we whoop jason's home team okay all right uh he uh he has um he's just been um brought on as a
01:07:46.580
uh assistant to the offensive coordinator yeah i'll be i'm like his right hand man so like the
01:07:52.920
assistant to the offensive coordinator so when he's calling the plays i'm gonna be like right behind
01:07:57.080
him helping writing down everything he says what the plays and then in between i'm getting everything
01:08:02.000
ready seeing what worked best and what can we do so is there any trepidation of doing this seeing
01:08:07.740
that you're my son and i don't mean politically like we usually mean it i mean like there's no sports
01:08:13.500
in your blood at all with me no you've never thrown a ball with me no i think it was grandpa
01:08:20.100
i have thrown a ball but not very well if that's what you want to call it
01:08:26.120
um but no yeah it's uh it's definitely interesting because i mean we're just not very
01:08:34.060
sporty you know just more of the arts and whatnot and so this has been a bit of a almost like an
01:08:39.140
uphill challenge without being able to know a whole lot and having to hit the ground running
01:08:43.760
or sprinting yeah and yet um it's happening i don't know how it happens to because you weren't
01:08:51.640
even around remember i talked to you when he was young i'm like you're in a football or something
01:08:55.060
because there's not a chance and what is he gonna you know what is he gonna end up being like
01:08:59.420
without with a dad like me and he just did it himself yeah it's incredible it's an amazing it's
01:09:06.400
amazing story i don't know right what it feels like that you've already accomplished more
01:09:09.540
athletically than your dad and you're you just graduated high school uh but that is pretty it's
01:09:14.480
pretty uh it's a pretty impressive i should point out actually sorry i should point out i did it in
01:09:18.780
two years you had all four and i did it in two you know i've had 59
01:09:24.280
uh and that uh still doesn't help i think it's a good it's an interesting summary of your
01:09:31.400
parenting rafe for all these years that he described it as a uphill battle um so that's
01:09:37.080
what you've brought to his life not even keeping the ground flat but actually made it an uphill well
01:09:41.740
you know what i am i am thrilled because my son is very well-rounded very well-rounded um uh and he
01:09:51.480
can now do the football thing which i can't do but he can also uh you know uh
01:09:59.240
do other things i guess that i taught to taught him no i mean you know the one thing that that i am
01:10:08.480
really proud of is all my kids have a very eclectic uh look at almost everything uh and could do
01:10:17.080
almost anything i mean your musical taste who are your favorites uh frank sinatra dean martin so
01:10:24.960
any like the rat pack pretty much but then it also goes over to like luciano pavarotti um and then
01:10:30.860
also just acdc is my favorite rock band of all time so i mean yeah i'll listen to anything except
01:10:37.460
for death metal pretty much yeah that's a good thing so let me ask and you don't have to get into
01:10:43.200
this you've had a rough couple of years personally yeah what got you through it and now to a point to
01:10:53.260
where you're actually not like freaking out oh i'm freaking out oh are you what got you what got
01:11:01.000
you through that to a point to where now you are on your way to college uh and have confidence in
01:11:08.000
what you're going to do i guess just keeping one foot in front of the other not looking over at the
01:11:13.680
big picture stuff and just it's just one day at a time it's not going to be i know i know it was
01:11:19.400
never going to be easy but instead of looking at like hey i need to get to here and this these are
01:11:24.500
all the challenges i need to get through it it's just this is the challenge for today this is the
01:11:30.900
next challenge and just keep letting them come and as they come on and go you and i both have
01:11:36.760
talked for since you were little about being a leader of men and that you always said i don't
01:11:42.340
want to be a leader of men no i said i wanted to be sam from the uh from the book of mormon i never
01:11:47.120
wanted to be uh wanted to be nephi and uh is that still on uh and uh
01:11:54.220
and there's that's because of what you saw happen with us with you yeah yeah um and let me ask you
01:12:04.440
do you find it ironic that as a coach you'll be a leader of men
01:12:08.980
i guess kind of just a little bit it's uh i can't hear him yeah go ahead lost his mic i guess
01:12:18.020
kind of but it's um i don't know it's more exciting now because i've had time to develop
01:12:23.740
into mature and during that time i've just been able to i guess more accept it and more i don't
01:12:30.740
know i love working with people i don't see it as leading people i see it as helping others and
01:12:34.640
helping those around me you're gonna do well my son i don't have any parting words for you other
01:12:40.380
than i love you and uh take care on your trip and i'll see you there in a couple weeks okay
01:12:49.200
it's weird sorry doing that on the air here but uh
01:12:57.780
yeah everybody has to do it with their son at some point and
01:13:05.120
we were talking about the blaze media summit and what is happening and i was telling you about a guy
01:13:12.520
who was riding a motorcycle across the country and it happened and he was watching you know the tweets
01:13:19.400
and listening to it and uh he said he stopped out outside of a navajo indian reservation and it was
01:13:26.760
small bed and breakfast and the guys were talking about it in the morning and he said i about spit
01:13:31.840
my orange juice out the coverage wasn't just going viral on social media it was literally everywhere
01:13:36.500
even in this little small town and breakfast but it was also and this is the important part for the
01:13:41.660
the republicans to hear it was also very relatable what tucker was bringing out of these interviews
01:13:48.460
was exactly what i was seeing in the small towns and even the indian reservations
01:13:53.500
when tucker told pence that america the america we remember is now collapsing
01:13:58.960
and asked why ukraine is somehow more important i remember the conversation i had
01:14:04.360
with a navajo nation mom of six she had moved off the reservation due to the crime and the rampant
01:14:10.920
meth problem then i spoke to a woman in her 60s in another small town that lamented that the days
01:14:17.020
where her small town was full of job opportunities and promise were over she told the stories of the
01:14:22.760
old factory and how crime didn't even really exist then came the layoffs then came the shuttered
01:14:28.520
businesses then came the epidemic of meth and drugs from the southern border this is the america the
01:14:35.900
elitist left wants us to pretend does not exist but it is also the america that was talking about
01:14:43.700
debating and sharing clips from blaze media summit i spoke to them the media should be terrified
01:14:51.380
the mainstream media is over and i think that's what we i think that's what we felt and anybody who is
01:14:58.760
watching it it was really strange you know i started doing the uh blaze in what 2010 or 11
01:15:05.640
and uh it's finally now hitting the place to where the mainstream media fox is people know what fox is now
01:15:18.060
uh and it's it's hit a tipping point this is really really good for america really good for america
01:15:28.880
um because i think you got an honest debate yeah i mean last week competition is always good right
01:15:37.280
it's always something that's it's important and it's it's good to see that there's some competition
01:15:40.980
out there and not only just to other you know networks that might call themselves you know conservative
01:15:46.340
but also just to the fact that the mainstream media has dominated this part of the structure of our
01:15:52.760
country for a really long time you know if you think about a primary you're trying to make a decision
01:15:57.480
in a primary right one of the big issues is ukraine right you have a couple different versions of that
01:16:02.220
argument you have an argument where you know where tucker has kind of been the main advocate of the
01:16:06.400
uh skeptical argument toward funding ukraine and if you go back i think to if you go back to like
01:16:12.080
for example 2014 russia invades crimea the conversation on the right was largely about how
01:16:18.780
barack obama abandoned his own red line and did nothing about it right and in that period of that
01:16:25.700
decade that conversation has really kind of changed where there's still a lot of people who kind of
01:16:31.500
want that more healthy uh you know version hawkish defense if you will and then there's a but i think
01:16:37.780
there's far more people now specifically in the primary voter group that are really skeptical about
01:16:44.460
any of this and getting involved in any of it and if if these candidates had gone on to i don't know
01:16:50.800
meet the press or some other you know left-wing media organization and and this conversation would
01:16:57.900
have come up it would have been think of someone who's hawkish someone like mike pence would have been
01:17:02.840
asked a question of why do uh why do other people that are crazy in your party disagree with joe biden's
01:17:09.180
position on this right that's essentially the tone of the questioning that would hit mike pence correct
01:17:14.300
he would be asked he would be asked to essentially bash his other candidates by saying why they're so
01:17:19.380
wrong instead this debate gave voice to that other more skeptical view and press those candidates on
01:17:26.840
that so we were able to learn the difference between them we were able to see the nuances in their
01:17:31.640
positions we were able to see if they could defend those positions and americans who are voting in
01:17:36.500
these primaries actually got something out of it because of that and we we also got a chance to see
01:17:41.340
the different sides of them as well i mean you know we didn't see oh i want to know the softer side what
01:17:47.380
does he read to his children i didn't care about any of that but after ramaswamy came off he sat down
01:17:52.840
with me while we were waiting for um um uh desantis to come on and i said to him i said you just said
01:18:03.520
and i've heard you know you were the strongest so far saying that you would just shut down the
01:18:08.980
department of justice the fbi i said how are you going to do that he said i'm coming in with a clear
01:18:14.440
sided view of shutting down most the most of the administrative state uh first of all i'm going
01:18:22.000
to do it on strong legal authority so i i'm a unique combination i like to brag a lot i don't like to
01:18:28.380
brag a lot but i'm a ceo but i also studied the constitution deeply and the supreme court right now
01:18:34.420
shares my view of the constitution the u.s president already has statutory authority the
01:18:40.260
presidential reorganization act of 1977 says you can shut down redundant agencies
01:18:47.900
well when i look at what the dea does and what the u.s marshals do there's my legal justification
01:18:54.740
for shutting down the fbi without asking congress for permission or forgiveness civil service protections
01:19:01.380
protect against individual firings for employees for supposedly political reasons they don't apply
01:19:08.100
to mass layoffs and mass layoffs are exactly what i'm bringing to washington dc holy cow is that strong
01:19:16.820
and i think it might be things like that that donald trump might have heard from the summit
01:19:22.100
that made him come out this weekend and say you know ramaswamy might be uh a good vice presidential
01:19:28.260
candidate and he said it'll i i'm considering uh tim scott or vivek and i think vivek would make a great
01:19:36.520
vice president uh because he comes at it as a 30 what is he 37 yeah 37 year old man who is
01:19:44.920
very accomplished and gets it quickly it's interesting too one thing strategically from
01:19:51.260
him that i you're not seeing from a lot of the other candidates is boldness i i think that when
01:19:55.920
you're at a guy who doesn't you know no one knows who vivek ramaswamy was in a national on the national
01:20:01.520
level other than the fact he's been on this show a bunch of times i know he's been in tucker a bunch of
01:20:05.100
times and he had some two conservatives that really follow the stuff he had some uh uh some
01:20:12.460
notoriety but like when you're coming into a race like this and you're at one and two percent to
01:20:17.420
start which of course would wear where he was you think being bold would be the strategy right find
01:20:23.580
out what your principle is what do you really believe how can you accomplish that and don't
01:20:27.260
be scared to say it and i think you see some of these other candidates who have been floundering
01:20:31.500
around two and three percent playing a pretty pretty conservative if you will game like not
01:20:38.220
really coming out and saying much of anything i i don't know if they're assuming they're thinking
01:20:42.760
maybe donald trump will flame out and that's when they're going to turn their engines on but man
01:20:46.800
how many times has that been predicted it's it's a it's a fascinating thing to watch where ramaswamy's
01:20:51.800
been the one guy you could say okay you listen to him and and you might i mean i know a lot of people
01:20:56.700
have constitutional uh doubts as to whether he could actually get these things done in the way
01:21:01.940
he's talking about it but at least he's putting ideas out there that are innovative and bold and
01:21:07.940
give people something to talk about where a lot of these candidates don't seem to be doing that at all
01:21:11.820
let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour it's pre-born one of these days maybe in our lifetimes
01:21:18.600
it is possible you will see the abolition of abortion um and the only way that really happens is if we
01:21:25.580
change people's hearts the history books of our future are going to write around about the
01:21:29.700
generational trauma the breakdown of families the destruction of basic morality and how one day it
01:21:36.540
all came to an end but for now we're still in that historic era the ministry of pre-born stands every
01:21:43.720
day for the helpless among us but they don't only mean the helpless babies the unborn they provide
01:21:51.120
free ultrasounds and postnatal help for up to two years for the moms they this is what is moving the
01:21:59.020
needle tremendously when an expecting mother comes in and she hears the heartbeat for the first time
01:22:05.700
chances are she's going to choose life for that baby when when you can be a part of that it is so
01:22:12.300
satisfying someday when people ask you know what did you do when all this was going on or your grandkids
01:22:17.880
your grandkids can say my grandparents helped save a life through pre-born it helped save many lives
01:22:25.320
and it turned the tables it turned the tide one ultrasound is 28 bucks dial pound 250 say the keyword
01:22:33.860

01:26:12.420
Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:26:20.500
I want to just touch base on something quickly.
01:26:24.540
The White House said, no, no, this was a mistake, and maybe it was.
01:26:28.760
But it was an important mistake from Kamala Harris.
01:26:33.280
Here's what she said over the weekend in Baltimore about the Inflation Reduction Act.
01:26:44.500
When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles and reduce population,
01:26:49.520
more of our children can breathe clean air and drink clean water.
01:26:55.660
Now, to be fair, they say that she meant reduce pollution, not population.
01:27:01.940
But I think there's some others that might disagree with that.
01:27:05.240
However, let's put into perspective as well, she's talking about the Inflation Reduction Act.
01:27:14.160
So she's talking about spending more on things the government is going to do,
01:27:20.200
and that somehow or another that's going to reduce inflation?
01:27:26.480
And an important thing to point out about the population in 60 seconds.
01:27:33.460
First, let me tell you about our sponsor, This Half Hour.
01:27:46.400
You'll get an email if you want it, but you can just go to their website and just look for news.
01:27:53.140
The American banking landscape is on the cusp of a seismic shift.
01:28:01.260
Even if you haven't subscribed to their free newsletter, market updates,
01:28:07.040
Just get this or go to their website and look in their news section.
01:28:12.080
In the article, they suggest that bank failures may not be over.
01:28:17.640
Half of the country's banks will likely be swallowed up by competitors.
01:28:23.880
Until there's only four or five banks that are left.
01:28:26.780
And those banks will be the banks of the Federal Reserve.
01:28:32.500
Maybe it's time to take charge of your own bank.
01:28:35.760
Give the folks over at Goldline a chance to find out
01:28:39.380
how to protect your money using precious metals.
01:28:44.380
Goldline has a special this week on their quarter ounce gold Mayflower coins.
01:28:49.400
With every 20 of their quarter ounce gold Mayflower coins acquired,
01:28:53.860
you're going to receive at no additional charge,
01:29:38.160
When we invest in clean energy and electric vehicles
01:30:01.340
that she may have meant pollution in this speech,
01:30:05.380
but they actually do intend on reducing the population.
01:58:29.160
in not really questioning her on on ukraine now
01:58:32.200
again she has a pretty standard uh 2012 view of
01:58:38.840
relatively hawkish but they didn't get into that
01:58:41.240
topic at all and they didn't get into the topic
01:58:43.520
about the disney situation where she was talking
01:58:48.340
south carolina those are the two things i thought
01:58:50.240
she was sort of vulnerable on because they didn't
01:58:52.820
go in that in those directions i thought she handled
01:58:54.580
herself really well actually i i thought she helped
01:58:58.860
um it wasn't a breakout performance but i thought it
01:59:05.180
yeah you might you might say that it's uh the only reason why i said it was
01:59:09.160
neutral is because that's what i expected her to do
01:59:11.240
she's a good candidate yeah and tim scott is too they're both good candidates
01:59:15.060
yeah um and i thought they were i grouped them together but i thought they
01:59:18.040
were right around the same area maybe haley a little bit better you thought
01:59:20.820
maybe scott was a little bit better but i thought they were right around the
01:59:23.640
so vivek was the first time that i saw a and maybe not this time but maybe next
01:59:31.500
time uh a future president of the united states and maybe this time i mean he's
01:59:36.760
growing rapidly uh in stature uh you know i would expect somebody like
01:59:43.900
vivek generally to do you know one percent the first time he's out he's not he's doing
01:59:51.160
fairly well in the polling and some polls one poll has them up to ten percent
01:59:55.040
um let's see how those hold and let's see what really happens
01:59:58.860
um but he was young energetic really buttoned up on all of the issues
02:00:06.620
um very very clean uh far as his messages there wasn't a lot of political speak and
02:00:16.200
gobbledygook i thought he just delivered it he's good at this glenn he's good at
02:00:22.180
this he's yeah he's good at doing this he and if you don't what you didn't see on
02:00:26.360
stage or in the interview that glenn did with vivek right after uh his uh his
02:00:31.480
performance uh in the uh tucker interview he's also backstage working the
02:00:36.360
crowd he knows how to do this he's good at it he was a good communicator before he
02:00:41.860
started running for president and he's he's fit into this role really well i think
02:00:44.780
for a lot of people who probably had never seen him uh before or didn't know
02:00:48.360
anything about him if that was your first experience with him you're probably
02:00:51.420
pretty impressed like the guy at speak take out his policies which some of
02:00:55.320
which you might like someone but you don't we're just talking about
02:00:57.660
performance here and i think quite clearly he had one of the best
02:01:00.440
performances of the weekend he's the type of person that is i think
02:01:03.600
is breaking out as a candidate he's having a moment and we all knew
02:01:08.140
it wasn't going to be a two-person race we all knew at some point someone in
02:01:11.360
that other group was going to have a moment and it seems like this is the
02:01:14.360
beginning of vivek's now so we'll we'll keep our eye on him uh the
02:01:19.320
other thing is you should know that he got us i think he was the first of the
02:01:23.200
day to get the standing ovation uh and um and he's a hindu and this was an
02:01:29.320
evangelical uh gathering uh he made quite an impression on these people all
02:01:38.520
unfortunately that's a big deal no i thought it was interesting his answer to
02:01:42.380
that we should come back and talk about his when you asked him directly about
02:01:44.940
that after the event it was interesting yes i thought it was really good and then
02:01:48.140
we'll get to ron desantis and his performance in just a second
02:01:50.760
if your car is no longer covered under its warranty
02:01:53.600
you know what that makes you makes you beholden to the car mechanics
02:01:58.120
it means that whatever they want to charge you when your car goes kaput they're
02:02:02.120
gonna you're gonna have to pay for it because what else are you gonna do
02:02:04.780
you need your car car shield offers affordable protection plans to fit every
02:02:17.100
you don't have a warranty you're really gonna love car shield
02:02:21.460
count on car shield to help take care of you when you're on the side of the
02:02:24.780
road and the car breaks down as well every protection plan includes coast to
02:02:29.840
and trip reimbursement at no extra cost and if you lock in your price today by
02:02:34.540
joining your price will never go up car shield dedicated to protecting what you
02:03:00.940
this is the Glenn Beck program talking about uh Vivek Ramaswamy um he said to me when i said you
02:03:22.740
know you were standing in front of a bunch of evangelicals uh how do you think you
02:03:26.420
did and he said you know i'm hoping people think about it i was raised uh christian uh in in christian
02:03:32.820
schools he said my family was hindu and he said uh but we have the same values we love america we
02:03:40.100
love the ten commandments we have the values that created this country he said and that's what we need
02:03:46.580
to defend and we both believe in one god um and uh god can use anyone and he said i don't think
02:03:53.860
there's anybody better to push off the idea of christian nationalism by using somebody who will
02:04:01.460
defend christians and uh the nation uh first uh than a guy who isn't christian i thought that was
02:04:10.500
brilliant it was an interesting point uh and then the last one was uh ronda santis who came in uh he
02:04:15.700
was the last one of the thought he did really well but he did really well too uh you know again people
02:04:19.700
like to say he's not a good candidate but like there's this weird thing going around that he's
02:04:23.940
not i thought he did very well he has obvious knowledge of the issues uh he can speak about them
02:04:29.460
clearly uh concisely and with a little bit of a exclamation point here and there and i thought he did
02:04:35.780
very well uh i thought he helped himself as well uh he needed to do i mean he you know people are
02:04:41.940
talking about his his candidacy and decline which is really weird because he's been at around 20 for
02:04:47.380
months he hasn't been improving or closing the gap with trump but he hasn't his support hasn't dwindled
02:04:53.380
either and i thought you know as for a first event i thought he did very well i thought he did very
02:04:59.220
well he's the candidate to beat um you know behind um trump yeah donald trump um i thought he handled
02:05:07.780
himself very well he looked very very presidential uh and i think uh it makes a lot of sense that
02:05:14.180
donald trump would come out and say the two guys i'm considering as my vice president would be uh tim
02:05:20.900
scott from south carolina that would make sense and vivek ramaswamy and this something i said a couple
02:05:26.660
of weeks ago and i think vivek will be the the nominee if he chooses from the nominees i think he will
02:05:34.100
he'll pick vivek ramaswamy as uh his running mate which i think would be really exceptional program
