Let me tell you a little bit about rough greens.
00:00:01.840
As a dog owner, how often are you thinking about the food that you're giving your best friend?
00:00:09.840
Since I don't have to hand-feed the dog anymore, I think very little of it.
00:00:15.520
And the reason why I don't have to hand-feed him is because I'm putting rough greens on top.
00:00:19.900
And I know it has the vitamins and minerals and probiotics and everything else that he needs to lead a healthy and happy life.
00:00:29.780
He's getting older, but I think rough greens has given him a longer life.
00:00:35.800
I know a healthier life, but try it on your dog.
00:00:41.720

00:01:48.200
Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:02:13.740
First, I have to tell you, things are on the edge.
00:02:19.920
And if we become an unstable nation, it is most likely that we will lose our reserve currency status.
00:02:29.020
Which means our dollar will become Venezuela overnight.
00:02:32.660
And the reason why I know that's true is because they've always told me we'll never lose our world reserve currency.
00:02:47.720
We already have actors all over the world moving in that direction.
00:02:55.740
They can help you build a protective hedge against economic insanity.
00:03:01.760
I want you to call them today, get their book on how you can, you know, how you can build that hedge and why it's a good idea.
00:03:12.320
Lear Capital will also credit your account $250 towards your purchases because you're a listener of mine.
00:03:28.760
All right, so Friday afternoon, we haven't had a chance to chat about this.
00:03:36.320
Friday afternoon, RFK came out in Arizona and endorsed Donald Trump.
00:03:44.300
And it was, I mean, his speech, which immediately was cut off by CNN, was, I thought, tremendous.
00:03:59.800
He hit all the, I think, very true notes about free speech and the left and the way the media is reacting.
00:04:06.800
You know, I'm not the biggest RFK Jr. fan in the world, but it's a very positive development for Donald Trump and his campaign.
00:04:14.180
And, you know, look, you're talking about a race where probably the entire range of outcomes is Trump plus four to Trump minus four.
00:04:22.040
And in a race like that, if you can pull a point away, maybe a point and a half because of RFK Jr. dropping out and endorsing you, that's a big development in a campaign.
00:04:32.800
Everyone's trying to downplay it, but I don't think that's the right way to look at it.
00:04:35.660
No, and I think it's more than just his voters.
00:04:40.320
I think this will affect a Kennedy endorsing Donald Trump.
00:04:45.500
That's insane, especially this Kennedy, who's as far left as you can get.
00:04:52.700
Because this Democratic Party needs to be stopped.
00:04:56.860
This Democratic Party is not a friend of democracy.
00:05:12.240
He's making the statement, this party is corrupt and you can't be a part of it.
00:05:18.180
Look how they tried to stop me and they say they're defending democracy.
00:05:24.380
How long will it be before the Green Party does the same thing?
00:05:28.660
You know what the Democrats are doing to the Green Party?
00:05:32.280
It's now going to the Supreme Court, they hope.
00:05:36.880
The lawyers challenging the national Democrats to keep the Green Party off the Wisconsin ballots.
00:05:45.340
They think the Supreme Court is going to pick this up and decide quickly because here's what the Democrats are arguing.
00:05:58.660
I don't know that I've heard this specific argument here now.
00:06:06.420
But remember, that was credited partly to Hillary's loss, that the Green Party was on the ballot.
00:06:12.900
So they made sure, let's get them off the ballot.
00:06:18.080
Four years ago, the Wisconsin Elections Commission denied the Green Party a spot on the 2020 ballot because of a paperwork issue.
00:06:31.120
They always find the paperwork issues, as they did with Cornel West recently in this election.
00:06:38.560
So this time, they're adding a requirement laid out in the U.S. Constitution.
00:06:50.680
14 years a resident of the United States and a natural-born citizen.
00:07:08.460
Now, that's certainly how they've been acting, not only this year, but many, many years.
00:07:12.480
But that's their actual argument, is you have to be a Republican or a Democrat?
00:07:25.700
It doesn't seem like they're exactly the party of democracy.
00:07:32.240
They try to jail their competitors, and they do everything they can to stop any other competitor from getting onto the ballot.
00:08:02.860
Now, it is amazing to me how these guys are choosing to stand up for democracy.
00:08:12.240
The Democrats have just won another legal challenge to keep Cornel West off the ballot.
00:08:32.220
They're all complaining that the Democratic Party is shutting us down.
00:08:41.400
I think you're going to see some Democrats who are kind of those Reagan Democrats wake up to some of this.
00:08:52.100
And they wouldn't necessarily wake up with the Green Party.
00:09:05.460
I think, you know, you have, when you look at it, I mean, I think you can look at it a bunch of different ways.
00:09:10.220
I mean, there's a transactional part of this, which is, you know, can't be ignored, where this is a good thing for RFK, right?
00:09:23.020
He's been, he is going to, I mean, he's being welcomed like he's a rock star by the Republicans.
00:09:36.380
That had already happened when he launched his campaign against Biden back in the day.
00:09:41.920
He's got nothing left to lose from those people.
00:09:44.240
I think there is a difference between running against Biden and declaring your support for Hitler.
00:09:55.860
I mean, that is a line, I think, that you do not cross.
00:10:03.580
I mean, that's probably about the extent of it.
00:10:06.060
He's already lost every connection in the party.
00:10:08.800
And I think, look, he's been embraced for a solid year by the right, like, in ways that they would normally not do with someone with his set of viewpoints.
00:10:20.960
And, look, with Donald Trump, I think he sees an opportunity to do a lot of the things that he thinks are important.
00:10:26.640
And I don't have any problem, I have no problem with him on a panel looking into all kinds of stuff with pharmaceutical companies.
00:10:37.700
I have a problem with a panel that is completely staffed by clones of him and socialists.
00:10:48.520
But that will never happen because they're in bed with the pharmaceutical companies.
00:10:51.960
And at the end of the day, Donald Trump has the power here.
00:10:55.740
If RFK Jr. starts doing stupid crap, he can just fire him.
00:11:04.380
If it starts getting out of hand, fire the guy.
00:11:09.880
And so this is, you know, something that I, you know, if I'm Donald Trump, I'm 100% embracing this because you're going to get some benefit out of it.
00:11:20.800
I personally think this is a massive, I think this is a really big deal because I think this is a domino.
00:11:27.080
People are seeing the arrest in Paris of, you know, another kind of Elon Musk and seeing people like Vindman coming out and saying, Elon Musk, you should be very afraid because they're going to do it to you too.
00:11:47.140
I mean, they're seeing the clamping down of freedom of speech.
00:11:50.180
They're seeing the same conditions in this country that are coming from London.
00:12:05.720
But you combine all of these, plus Kennedy, Cornel West, and the Green Party, proving that this is not a party that celebrates democracy.
00:12:23.440
And I think you're going to start peeling people away like crazy.
00:12:27.120
I think this is the beginning of the unraveling because of their arrogance.
00:12:31.800
Now, if you watched his pulling out of the race and his endorsement of Donald Trump, I thought it was fascinating.
00:12:43.620
I happen to disagree with you, Stu, on he has nothing to lose.
00:12:46.700
One of the things he said was, the only thing that gives me hesitation is because of my family.
00:12:54.260
I know what is going to happen to my wife and my children because of this decision today.
00:13:01.800
I think, you know, you do run a grave risk in this society if you're A, a Kennedy, period.
00:13:14.120
If you're a Kennedy that runs against Biden, period.
00:13:19.460
And the third one is you're a Kennedy, you leave the party, and you endorse Donald Trump.
00:13:26.520
I think that's an incredibly brave thing to do myself.
00:13:31.500
There is something to lose, which is Secret Service protection.
00:13:48.920
The phrase has troubled liberals who think it is a call for a return to an America before the civil rights, gay rights, and women's rights.
00:13:57.740
But I have a more generous interpretation, one that is truer to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today.
00:14:04.840
Make America Great Again recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and belief in itself.
00:14:13.440
It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows.
00:14:18.460
It could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present.
00:14:21.900
Yet at the same time, it could celebrate its successes.
00:14:26.380
It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world's most vibrant middle class, an idealistic belief, though not consistently applied, in freedom, justice, and democracy.
00:14:37.480
It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology, and it was the healthiest country in the world.
00:15:00.460
And if anybody in the press would actually talk to Trump supporters or actually feel what's going on in those rallies, you would know that as well.
00:15:11.760
But the press and this government, this regime, is pushing people into darker and darker places.
00:15:21.800
They are, in Europe, they are starting to listen to Nazis, which is on the left, by the way.
00:15:31.300
Conservatives in America want freedom, maximum freedom and individual liberty.
00:15:42.320
My response to RFK Jr. on X from this weekend next.
00:15:48.500
First, let me tell you about Relief Factor Sleep.
00:15:50.940
Getting poor sleep isn't just an inconvenience.
00:15:55.700
For one thing, ruining your day and having you groggy all morning or sleepy in the afternoon, it's also terrible for your health, and it can be dangerous.
00:16:08.260
Ever fall asleep while you're driving because you got such terrible night's sleep the night before?
00:16:12.480
If you're somebody who has difficult sleeping, if you find that to be extraordinary, that you just can't fall asleep, may I suggest you try Z Factor.
00:16:27.180
We used to call it Relief Factor Sleep, but it's a 100% drug-free way to help you fall asleep faster, sleep better, and stay asleep longer.
00:16:38.680
Z Factor uses a formula of four natural ingredients to calm your mind, relax your body so you can ease into sleep, sleep sounder, and sleep through the night.
00:16:58.340
You just go to relieffactor.com, call 800-4-RELIEF, 800-4-RELIEF, 10 seconds, station ID.
00:17:16.000
So I wrote a response to RFK when he published that.
00:17:24.280
I read it, and I thought it was important to respond to him for what has happened this weekend.
00:17:35.340
I wrote, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., yes, thank you.
00:17:43.120
The self-examination of our wrongs have made us better, more clear, and empathetic.
00:17:49.620
But the hatred of our country, the hatred that so many try to push, is an infection in our family of man.
00:17:58.580
We have all engaged in it at times, either to win an argument or out of the spirit of anger and divisiveness.
00:18:06.020
We all must correct our ways, ask for forgiveness, and begin again.
00:18:11.420
It is driving a wedge that we must remove to come together.
00:18:15.760
And the only way we can come together is to rediscover the reason most of our families came here in the first place.
00:18:22.960
Like it or not, they are the same capitalized revolutionary works of our founding fathers.
00:18:30.140
They are the same principles that your father, Martin Luther King, and Lincoln espoused.
00:18:39.480
Yes, we have never met our goals in all men are created equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights.
00:18:48.560
If we could all truly come together, equal and not separate, so many Americans are tired of being told to hate our country, hate our history, and hate our neighbor.
00:19:05.800
And we come together to march on in hopes of making a more perfect nation.
00:19:12.360
Opposition in all things is found in the scriptures.
00:19:16.560
Our diversity allows us to be strong, but only if we unify as work and work is one.
00:19:28.560
Not in talent, not in wealth, failure, or success, but in mind and spirit.
00:19:35.380
We come together to be free and be a beacon of hope for all mankind that, yes, you can pursue your happiness here in America.
00:19:48.340
We need to chart our own course and inspire others.
00:19:53.540
However, without our rights, which are outlined and codified in the Bill of Rights, this cannot be done.
00:20:06.240
Their tools are lies, hatred, distortion, and fear.
00:20:13.640
The world needs empathy, forgiveness, and truth.
00:20:24.000
Let us rebuild, and with the lessons of the past in mind, build anew.
00:20:33.540
Are we willing to align ourselves with the principles that so many men and women died for?
00:20:38.780
I, for one, am ready, and I begin by recognizing you, RFK Jr., and I do not agree with many things that you say.
00:20:49.960
But I need to recognize I know the risk you are taking, the loss of so many friends and family,
00:20:56.060
and the sacrifice your family will be forced to make due to your words and actions today in endorsing Donald Trump.
00:21:06.600
You have willingly gone into the lion's den for love of country.
00:21:11.860
No man risks his entire life of comfort for nothing.
00:21:16.280
No man risks his life and is willing to be shot and or die for principles he does not believe in
00:21:26.820
I believe your actions may place you in your uncle's inspirational book,
00:21:32.940
but many names will be listed from these times.
00:21:40.360
Let us come together where we can and work all the rest out as friends and Americans later.
00:21:58.080
We had the assassination attempt, and then we had the RNC, and everybody's feeling good.
00:22:07.460
Then we had Biden quit, and Kamala come in, and we went through a two-week cycle at the end of her, you know, DNC convention.
00:22:23.220
Immediately after that, without a day's break, RFK comes in, and we're in a Trump cycle again.
00:22:44.780
Labor Day is right around the corner, and that means Good Ranchers.
00:22:51.200
Right now, when you subscribe to any of their boxes, you're going to get a free add-on for an entire year.
00:22:58.560
That's a year full of chicken breasts, Angus ground beef, applewood bacon, or wild-caught salmon with every single order.
00:23:06.580
And when you use my code GLEN, you'll also get $25 off your first box and free express shipping.
00:23:12.140
That's up to $400 in savings, and you can do the one-time purchase.
00:23:17.280
But if you're anything like me, you're going to want to start a subscription.
00:23:21.420
It's the place to get steaks, burgers, chicken, pork, seafood, because they source everything here in America.
00:23:28.540
So you're getting top-quality meats at a great price, and you're not buying meat that's coming in from China or overseas.
00:23:41.360
Use the promo code GLEN, grab this Labor Day special, and enjoy great savings while supporting Americans' farms and ranches.
00:23:58.440
You can get $30 off your annual subscription to Blaze TV.
00:24:23.500
And how, you know, there's no risk for him going to the Republicans at this point.
00:24:32.760
And Kamala Harris didn't even return his phone calls, right?
00:24:34.660
But when you said that, I immediately thought his political risk, which I think is true.
00:24:41.480
I don't think there's political risk to this move.
00:24:44.120
However, when it comes to the fact, and we kind of just brushed over this, I think it's important to highlight, there's no justification to remove Secret Service protection from RFK Jr. right now.
00:24:54.700
First of all, he's still a candidate in a bunch of states.
00:24:57.700
He's keeping himself on the ballot in, honestly, most of the states that he's going to be in.
00:25:04.720
He talked about some outlying possibility of how he could still become president in his speech.
00:25:10.060
And he's still going to be on the ballot in Michigan because he can't pull himself off of it.
00:25:16.520
But beyond all that, obviously, the risk to RFK Jr., after what we saw in Pennsylvania, after what we've seen through the Kennedy family through all these years, is legitimate and undoubtedly increased after what he's done here.
00:25:31.660
So when it comes to risk to his life, there is risk there.
00:25:35.380
And the fact that they pull his Secret Service protection immediately is there's no justification for it unless you want the man to have something terrible to happen to him.
00:25:43.840
Which, of course, is actually the answer, probably.
00:25:47.620
We welcome Pat Gray in from Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:25:55.400
Did you happen to – did you see the New Republic where they've come out and said that Kamala Harris is a historic figure that surpasses John F. Kennedy and Obama?
00:26:16.960
I'm expecting the Nobel Peace Prize nomination at any moment.
00:26:24.800
It's been the most amazing transformation of the perception of somebody in world history.
00:26:31.900
I mean, this woman had – was it 28% approval?
00:26:39.900
And now she's better than the second coming of Barack Obama.
00:26:45.500
She's the first coming of, I don't know, the angel of light.
00:26:58.340
The division in our country was overcome during her electric speech on Thursday night, largely due to her leadership.
00:27:07.300
So that healed the wounds and the division, she said, or he said, the writer.
00:27:13.100
For my entire adult life, there have been two Democratic parties.
00:27:28.940
And it is not the one that you remember, not the one that our grandparents voted for with Roosevelt, certainly not the John F. Kennedy.
00:27:40.500
I don't think John F. Kennedy would even be welcome in the Democratic Party today.
00:28:00.560
Oh, Ronald Reagan wouldn't even recognize Republicans.
00:28:04.840
This party is so Marxist in the Democrats now that the Communist Party of America doesn't ever have to come up with a candidate because the Democrats are always perfectly acceptable to them.
00:28:19.540
They've been endorsing the last few candidates, the Communist Party of America.
00:28:34.120
Between her and Tim Walz, it is the socialist ticket.
00:28:40.600
By the way, it's also the biggest liar ticket I've ever seen.
00:28:47.780
Apparently, on his bio, he years ago put that he was the outstanding young Nebraskan.
00:28:59.400
Uh, and, uh, uh, he was named that by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.
00:29:05.240
The problem is the Chamber of Commerce, the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce did all their research.
00:29:28.260
I have many times, in the middle of just paragraphs I'm writing, just wrote that I won an award in Nebraska.
00:29:34.960
I think almost all of us have at one point or another.
00:29:39.440
I will say, did they start the search for VP saying, can we find someone worse than George Santos?
00:29:53.160
Every day there's another story about how this guy made up another lie about his life.
00:29:58.820
I mean, I guess, considering the president is Biden, who also does quite a bit of this thing, maybe it fits.
00:30:05.120
But I can't believe how many things and how many dumb things there are.
00:30:10.060
Like, who cares if you won an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce?
00:30:23.780
You know, and the residents of Berkeley are like, we get it.
00:30:28.640
I mean, we're really known as the communist town.
00:30:32.640
So we see why she would run away and say that it's Berkeley.
00:30:47.800
And it was amazing the way the story was written.
00:30:50.400
I think it was the New York Times maybe that wrote that one.
00:30:52.880
And it's like, it's not, do you believe this terrible lie by this candidate running from their past?
00:31:09.580
So if she needs to say Oakland to win, oh, well, what can you do?
00:31:21.380
I mean, Bill Maher came out, and he was really upset.
00:31:23.940
And he said, I think her not talking to the press is worse.
00:31:30.140
Worse than Donald Trump saying the press is an enemy of the people.
00:31:54.400
And one of the anchor, I think it was for CBS, said.
00:32:14.260
There was a statement that that's not what she believes in anymore.
00:32:17.280
It came from an unnamed, unknown source in the middle of the night.
00:32:28.000
And Cotton correctly called it out and said, because I think Carl said, you know, she says
00:32:42.000
It's all been just little leaks from like interns that are unnamed.
00:32:47.860
And it's fascinating to watch how this stuff is treated.
00:32:51.380
In 2019, she came out with a million far left policies that she's now reversed via statement
00:33:06.880
And the media has dutifully accepted all of those and gone on without asking with J.D.
00:33:13.580
Vance, with Tom Cotton, with Donald Trump and attacked them for lying about her current
00:33:20.360
Like they've taken the point of defense of these unnamed statements.
00:33:25.740
On the other side of things, Project 2025 is launched by the Heritage Foundation.
00:33:35.160
In fact, publicly denounces it over and over and over again.
00:33:38.880
To the extent they shut the entire program down and fire the guy who's at the head of
00:33:45.600
And after all of that, they're still holding him responsible for Project 2025.
00:33:56.080
I actually feel bad for the Heritage Foundation.
00:33:58.560
I do too, because there's nothing radically in it.
00:34:01.060
The good faith effort to drop some policies, whether you like them or not.
00:34:05.360
But like, how can he be held responsible for this?
00:34:11.800
He hasn't cut his wrist, stick his finger into his veins, and then written it out in
00:34:25.000
They are just, it is amazing what they're trying to get away with.
00:34:29.340
And by the way, the House, members of the House now, the Democratic side, are all saying,
00:34:35.740
no, Kamala was just throwing things out there when she was talking about, you know, price
00:34:44.980
Yeah, they're behind the scenes saying that, saying that, like, don't worry about it.
00:34:53.880
Like, it would be very difficult to get that passed, I think, depending on what the makeup
00:34:58.380
And I think it would probably, you know, there's at least a possibility that the Supreme Court
00:35:01.580
would overturn it even if they did get it passed.
00:35:03.560
But like, why isn't she held responsible for these things?
00:35:07.840
Their goal with 100% certainty is to get her in under any circumstance.
00:35:13.020
The media will do anything they can to get him in.
00:35:15.340
But what's amazing to me, if you believe in that statement, then why isn't she coming
00:35:25.440
It's like she won't come out on stage and say them.
00:35:29.220
I mean, you shouldn't believe them anyway because of what Stu just said.
00:35:32.740
They will do anything to make sure she's elected and they'll erase all of her past.
00:35:43.780
It's almost as if she's sitting there going, I'm not saying that.
00:35:52.860
It's very reminiscent of Biden just running his campaign from his basement in 2020.
00:36:01.920
I mean, Biden, people are like, oh, he's just staying in the basement.
00:36:07.180
I mean, you remember him saying, hey, you ain't black if you don't vote for me.
00:36:12.860
Because he was doing interviews from the basement.
00:36:14.960
At least he was doing something in the basement.
00:36:35.660
Companies were not ideological captured by wokeism.
00:36:39.940
And taking care of the customer's needs was more important than showing your leftist credentials.
00:36:46.420
These days, the business world and the tech sector in particular is morally barren and a wasteland.
00:36:53.780
And it is filled with companies that march to the beat of the drums like DEI and companies that have made it very hard for you to spend dollars with them with a good conscience.
00:37:03.660
But every once in a while, if you look at the right place, you'll find a company that still wants to do business the American way.
00:37:13.840
And unlike Big Mobile, they won't send your money to Planned Parenthood or other leftist causes.
00:37:18.400
Right now, when you make the switch to Patriot Mobile, you're going to get a whole month for free.
00:37:24.680
They're America's only Christian conservative mobile phone company.
00:37:48.400
Hey, you know, if you are thinking about your home, you might be thinking about some repairs around there.
00:38:04.100
You might be thinking about, I got to get that done.
00:38:06.160
There's the honey-do list that's 55 miles long.
00:38:13.920
And you might think, well, my wife's not going to notice if I protect the home's title.
00:38:22.980
She's going to care a lot if this thing goes wrong.
00:38:25.040
Because if home title theft happens to you, you're going to be hearing about it all the time.
00:38:31.240
You're talking about your accounts being emptied out.
00:38:36.200
You could owe hundreds of thousands of dollars to lenders for loans you never took out.
00:38:47.480
They can borrow against your behalf, your equity on your behalf.
00:38:52.660
Bottom line is, at the end of the day, HomeTitleLock.com protects you from this.
00:38:56.660
You can make sure your title is safe if you use the promo code BLAZE.
00:38:59.640
If you do that, they're going to send you a complete scan of your title.
00:39:01.760
So, this is important because if you don't get that, you don't know what's going on or what's happened in the past.
00:39:10.600
Well, this stuff comes back and bites people all the time.
00:39:17.440
You get the 30 days of triple lock protection free at HomeTitleLock.com as well.
00:39:45.000
The withdrawal of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the presidential race and his endorsement of former President Donald Trump was yet another extraordinary moment in an election that has been anything but predictable.
00:39:55.120
Only a year ago, it would have been unthinkable that a sitting president would effectively be forced off a ticket and replaced by a candidate who did not secure a single vote for president.
00:40:09.980
Now, the nephew of John F. Kennedy, the son of Robert F. Kennedy, has not just withdrawn from the Democratic Party, but endorsed the Republican nominee.
00:40:19.580
Amidst all the claimed joy of the Democratic National Convention, there is a sobering reality that is being ignored by the ecstatic press and pundits.
00:40:34.260
There's an old expression that a conservative is just a liberal that has been mugged.
00:40:39.080
Kennedy has not become a Republican, but rather joined the roughly half of Americans now identifying as independents.
00:40:47.240
While this country is solidly under the hold of a duopoly of power in the two main parties, only 25% of the country identify as Democrats and 25% as Republicans.
00:40:58.900
I come from a politically active liberal Democratic family in Chicago.
00:41:03.860
I spent much of my life working for liberals since I first came to Washington in 1970s.
00:41:16.540
Where they once defended free speech, Democrats have rallied behind censorship and blacklisting of those with opposing views.
00:41:23.800
They've sought to block dozens of Republicans from ballots, including former President Trump.
00:41:28.720
To make matters worse, they've done so in the supposed name of democracy.
00:41:33.480
These actions were raised by Kennedy in his powerful and poignant withdrawal speech.
00:41:39.200
He detailed how the Democratic Party moved to stop him from running against President Biden in the primary, including efforts to block him from ballots.
00:41:50.660
After harassing candidates like RFK and Minnesota Representative Dean Phillips, the Democratic leadership then simply installed their choice at the convention in an unprecedented bait and switch.
00:42:04.640
There could have been a substantive primary that would expose the diminished mental state of Biden and allowed for a Democratic choice on the best nominee.
00:42:16.260
But instead, the Democrats prevented such choices from being made and selected a leader with all the transparency and deliberation of a party in a party of Congress in China.
00:42:28.520
Kennedy said the Democratic Party has shoved him and voters into the arms of Donald Trump.
00:42:34.480
He said, I began this journey as a Democrat, the party, my father, my uncle.
00:42:38.980
I pledged allegiance, but I end as an independent.
00:42:43.860
And they have replaced common sense, honestly, with joy, I guess.
00:43:04.420
Because that's going to make pharmaceutical companies very, very rich.
00:43:10.220
And they'll tell you exactly what you can and cannot put into your body, which is which is really good.
00:43:19.280
Anyway, Jace Medical is here so you can ensure that you have the medication on hand that you want to use.
00:43:29.680
And it's a personalized emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.
00:43:37.640
And it provides five life-saving antibiotics for emergency use.
00:43:41.480
You just fill out a simple form online and you'll have it just in case you need it.
00:43:45.780
And there are add-on options like ivermectin or Tamiflu.
00:43:53.380
They have a special running through the 31st where you can enter.
00:44:00.260
You could win a Jace case for the rest of your life.
00:45:01.400
We have kind of a sketchy interview happening or not happening
00:45:11.500
And he's in a part of the country where he doesn't have real good cell service
00:45:19.780
We'll see if that happens in just a couple of seconds
00:45:24.760
Plus, so much more on today's program that you just don't want to miss
00:45:37.280
Do you remember what it was like voting for Ronald Reagan?
00:45:39.980
Do you remember how good you felt about that decision?
00:45:44.520
Wouldn't it be amazing if you could vote for him again?
00:45:54.840
And you can vote for the Gipper at the box office
00:46:12.340
I don't know if he's going to be able to pull this off
00:46:20.220
Because he thought, I'm not going to be able to nail it
01:01:50.580
and the democratic party has now become the neocon party it's become the party of war the
01:01:57.780
party and we're spending twice in in in real dollars we're spending twice on our military
01:02:04.280
when we were at the height of the cold war and that money is not being spent for national defense
01:02:09.580
it's being spent for national for international domination and it's not a good policy it's not
01:02:15.940
working well robert i appreciate you pulling off to the side of the road and i know you've you got
01:02:21.260
to get back on the road so thank you for talking to us and and uh thank you for your courage um
01:02:26.820
yeah i i think your speech on friday which cnn broke away from almost immediately uh i thought
01:02:33.220
it was very powerful very powerful thank you thank you very much glad to talk about it yep uh let me
01:02:41.200
talk to you about lear capital um you know no matter who gets into office we have a real problem
01:02:49.400
because of our deficit um we have a real problem because we don't have the credibility we had
01:02:55.600
uh with the dollar around the world and you have bricks now coming together uh trying to stop it you
01:03:01.320
also have the pressure from china i don't know if you've seen what china is doing lately but they are
01:03:07.200
preparing themselves i think for war um it truly truly terrifying they are cutting us off on essential
01:03:16.400
items this will not bode well for the united states please because of the terrible mismanagement of our
01:03:23.820
economy um we are facing the loss of the world's reserve currency so would you please call today lear
01:03:32.940
capital and find out if gold or silver is right for you it's lear capital they have thousands of five
01:03:38.640
star reviews uh they've had three billion dollars uh in uh in trusted purchases so please go to lear
01:03:47.440
capital all you have to do is call them now at 800-957-GOLD 800-957-GOLD do that today 800-957-GOLD
01:04:13.160
i thought that uh uh rfk coming on and talking about his uncle and his father not being welcomed
01:04:26.060
and the fact that he is recognizing uh that the democrats and i think the republicans the old
01:04:34.700
republicans uh are the same on war i mean i used to be a guy who's like you know let's go to war
01:04:41.480
we gotta stop them uh no no we really don't need to bring democracy uh any place else people have to
01:04:49.280
earn that themselves and you and i both stew have really changed in the war department wouldn't you
01:04:56.220
agree i think so yeah uh you know i'm certainly the parties have been seemingly switching on that
01:05:02.500
topic i mean i think you're what you've said before is maybe the biggest part of that interview where
01:05:08.120
he you know he's been accused of abandoning what his family believed and i think he sees it the exact
01:05:15.140
opposite way with a lot of evidence a lot of evidence yeah yeah and he he compiled some of it
01:05:21.680
all right we want to talk about freedom of speech there was the arrest of uh the ceo of telegram
01:05:29.340
uh this is a free speech flashpoint uh this might be a problem down the road and also democrats
01:05:39.720
threatening elon musk with the same treatment we'll give that to you in a minute glenn beck
01:05:46.560
you know um i have a german shepherd uno and he's probably going to be our last dog because they are
01:05:54.860
just so heartbreaking uh you know every 10 to 12 years we lose a dog and it's just so heartbreaking
01:06:03.700
to lose them um and we want uno to live as long as possible he is slowing down so much now but he's
01:06:11.880
13 i think that's the oldest that we've had any german shepherd um and he doesn't have the pain in his
01:06:18.840
hips or maybe it's just starting i'm not sure um but uh i just love him i just love him and i want the
01:06:26.200
best for him and that's why when we feed him we put on the food we sprinkle on rough greens which
01:06:33.060
is something that we uh we know we brought to the vet and said is this good to put on his food and
01:06:39.740
she read all the ingredients she's like are you kidding me if you can get your dog to eat this this
01:06:44.060

01:07:07.540
well yesterday's another step was taken towards totalitarianism that is a little frightening for
01:07:27.300
anybody who's paying attention uh telegram was founded in 2013 by a russian entrepreneur
01:07:34.840
his name is pavel durov uh he it is now one of the world's largest communication tools uh it's a
01:07:42.180
little like signal to where you can communicate with each other in with encryption um and it is
01:07:50.200
central to everyday life in places like russia ukraine india uh in fact russia has had a problem
01:07:57.880
because ukrainians are using that i believe for military um and so it's you know keeping things it's it's
01:08:07.420
allowing them to communicate with each other but it wasn't putin that arrested the uh entrepreneur and
01:08:24.040
i i don't even know what to say when they said a few weeks ago when that official said i'll come after
01:08:34.040
elon musk you you know no matter where you are we'll get you um that was a real problem
01:08:41.100
and then uh they said well that was just a guy who he went rogue that was that really wasn't from us
01:08:47.820
i didn't believe it at the time and i certainly don't believe it now so they became uh they they
01:08:55.160
went after this guy he comes into uh france and they arrest him
01:09:00.180
okay well that's a that's really kind of really not uh helpful here so the the russian embassy in
01:09:13.020
paris is demanding that the french government explain itself and you know i guess they are uh duroff
01:09:21.540
was detained by the national anti-fraud office over the alleged facilitation of various crimes including
01:09:29.540
terrorism narcotics trafficking and fraud on his platform he allowed an incalculable number of
01:09:36.680
offenses and crimes to be committed for which he did nothing so wait so he's an accomplice to all
01:09:45.540
of those things is that what you're saying france now this has you know disturbed a lot of people
01:09:55.300
the you know the head of rumble said i'm a little late to this but for good reason i've just safely
01:09:59.640
departed from europe france has threatened rumble and now they've crossed a red line by arresting
01:10:05.220
telegram's ceo reportedly for not censoring speech rumble will not stand for this behavior well elon musk
01:10:13.620
is also very concerned elon musk um tweeted out uh yesterday it is vital to the support of free speech
01:10:24.260
that you forward x posts to people you know especially in censorship heavy countries so he's
01:10:32.680
saying they're going to be hidden if you see a tweet you've got to send it yourself this is what i've
01:10:39.600
been talking to you about the blaze we are going to be censored and we already have been censored so
01:10:46.400
much and suppressed so much um you know we're having again last year was a great year for us
01:10:54.460
this year we're breaking all kinds of of records better than when we were at fox bigger uh impact
01:11:02.620
than when we were at fox it's really quite astonishing especially when you look at our facebook
01:11:09.020
numbers we're losing people on facebook we can't we can't get any traction on facebook why is that do
01:11:19.480
you suppose because they're silencing the vote uh they're silencing the voice during the vote that's
01:11:27.540
exactly what's happening and it's it's only going to get worse um alexander vindman do you remember
01:11:33.800
him stew what do you what is he best known for he was the guy who was calling out trump right um was
01:11:45.480
he right he wasn't the whistleblower was i he yes he was okay he was the guy who said uh you know i was
01:11:53.660
listening in to that perfect phone call uh with ukraine and uh he said you know i want you to root out all
01:12:02.520
that corruption and look into joe biden and under oath he said well he didn't actually say that but
01:12:10.340
uh you know it was inferred oh okay by whom you so this guy is i think just a really bad guy
01:12:20.200
he came out uh and said while duroff holds french citizenship he's being arrested for violating french
01:12:28.400
law this is broader implications for social media including twitter uh there's a growing intolerance
01:12:35.920
for platform disinformation and malign influence and there's a growing appetite for accountability
01:12:43.440
musk should be afraid that's a threat that's a threat there's a growing intolerance for platforming
01:12:53.420
disinformation really not with the american people with the elite ruling class yes there is
01:13:03.040
uh a growing appetite for accountability so what we're going to put people in jail
01:13:10.280
huh and why is why is elon musk the target here why is that why are you going after him and not
01:13:22.320
zuckerberg who we found out from cbs news uh in 60 minutes this weekend uh that um you know
01:13:31.300
new mexico the ag there again is accusing meta of failing to address child explore uh exploitation
01:13:40.540
i mean really really bad things are happening on instagram and facebook and zuckerberg is already i mean
01:13:51.820
they know how to fix this but he doesn't want to hurt the advertising revenue and so your kids are
01:13:58.960
being served up horrible horrible things horrible things um yeah go ahead let's play the sound on this
01:14:06.880
facebook and instagram new mexico's attorney general is accusing the social media giant
01:14:12.540
and its ceo mark zuckerberg of enabling child sex abuse and trafficking on its sites
01:14:18.380
cbs news senior business and technology correspondent jolene kent reports on the undercover investigation
01:14:24.360
that used ai it was shocking quite frankly to see the explosion of sexual interest in these in these
01:14:34.460
kids almost immediately new mexico attorney general raul torres says his investigation into meta
01:14:40.340
found that facebook and instagram's algorithms created a marketplace for the sexual exploitation of
01:14:46.020
children the civil lawsuit alleges meta enabled adults to find message and groom minors soliciting
01:14:52.680
them to sell pictures or participate in pornographic videos law enforcement set up an undercover operation
01:14:58.780
using test accounts like this one showing ai generated photos of a fictional 13 year old girl from
01:15:05.300
albuquerque the complaint says followers flooded the account with unsolicited messages filled with pictures
01:15:12.260
and videos of genitalia which she received at least three to four times per week
01:15:17.080
you know we are sitting here and they're talking about mis and disinformation while our children uh are being
01:15:27.740
abused in schools uh by facebook instagram they're concerned about misinformation that is the biggest problem
01:15:37.400
we have is misinformation so they'll go after elon musk why not go after uh why not go after sky news
01:15:44.760
listen to this report cut 13 listen to this report uh about uh well a mostly peaceful riot listen to
01:15:55.060
this last hour they've given us an update that they've made 38 arrests and recovered four knives
01:16:01.280
and they said a man believed to be in his 20s has been stabbed his injuries are not life threatening
01:16:07.420
but overall it's been a really peaceful and enjoyable day
01:16:10.960
it ends up that there were four people stabbed okay 36 arrests like three people in the hospital
01:16:27.960
but other than that it's been just a mostly peaceful event
01:16:32.120
that's like saying you know uh yes uh the bomb was dropped in uh hiroshima and uh all these people died
01:16:47.600
and left you know their shadows burned on the sidewalks but other than that it was a beautiful day
01:16:56.100
sun was so bright yeah temperatures were you know in the 70s if you exclude that 5 000 degree time period
01:17:07.540
uh really bumps up the average which is unfortunate yeah i mean it's it's incredible just incredible
01:17:15.660
and we're starting to see more and more uh people um now we're seeing it in
01:17:23.720

01:18:50.000
he's being arrested because he wouldn't provide his information
01:19:24.340
this is in new jersey in america you don't say papers please
01:19:30.520
no i don't have to give you any information no i'm going to arrest you unless you give me the
01:19:37.040
information no you you can you can be in the water without a beach pass you can fish and you can surf
01:19:44.920
yes but you can't walk across the beach to get there well what am i going to do take a helicopter
01:19:54.980
it is not and uh that's incredibly disturbing and how many of these things have happened right i mean
01:20:01.520
this was happening all throughout the covid period where they were arresting people for going on the
01:20:06.480
beaches and happening to people 90 year old people who are praying in front of an abortion clinic yeah
01:20:12.880
you know yep getting literally getting 10 years in prison it's insanity i know you've been covering
01:20:20.280
the the people who are around the world who have been you know arrested for tweets yes arrested for
01:20:26.860
just you know emails they've sent with words they're not supposed to say now some of that stuff is not
01:20:33.100
covered i guess by their constitution certainly is covered by ours and i think the freedom of movement
01:20:37.940
is something that's pretty fundamental to the uh to the united states of america it's pretty
01:20:44.060
remarkable all right back in just a minute now let's say you're in an emergency situation you have
01:20:49.120
to protect yourself or your family from somebody dangerous you're driving down the street and a bunch
01:20:54.400
of knotheads are in front of you and you're you know i know that your your instinct would be i'm just
01:21:02.480
going to drive through them um but then you're in trouble and you you know you don't want to pull
01:21:09.380
a gun because that's that's worse but how do you get out of that well you could open your window a
01:21:15.160
crack and you can safeguard yourself and your family from these knotheads by firing tear gas at them
01:21:23.420
that incapacitates a person for about 40 minutes so it would probably do the job and you'd be able to go
01:21:30.900
home uh this is a berna launcher and cops are starting to use this it's way beyond a taser and
01:21:37.700
uh and certainly better than pepper spray um and they also have their high capacity mission 4 rifle
01:21:43.460
with maximum projectile speed it's back in stock and ready to ship now it's berna b-y-r-n-a.com

01:22:23.000
i don't think i've ever had my son rafe on the uh show before but he's up in
01:22:28.680
washington dc he was um with the the families of the fallen um military at
01:22:37.980
um at the abbey gate it's the anniversary of the afghanistan withdrawal and the chaos there
01:22:46.540
um so he was with the families today um because i couldn't make it and uh they just laid a wreath with
01:22:57.980
uh donald trump we're gonna probably check in with him and and see how what that felt like
01:23:16.780
it was three years ago we got on the air and said this gotta stop
01:23:23.020
it's gotta stop and we were the ones that flew most of the people out the government worked
01:23:32.420
against us and it was it was our people at the abbey gate it was people that had been uh removed from
01:23:40.860
one of our flights before and they were in you know flight for their life the taliban now knew who
01:23:48.700
they were because the state department gave them all the information uh and they were up pressed up
01:23:54.460
against that abbey gate and that was our plane load of moms and kids and families that were blown up
01:24:03.180
and then biden doesn't even recognize the families it's really a it was a dark day a really dark day
01:24:11.260
but trump is at least uh marking it with the laying of the wreath uh for those soldiers with their
01:24:19.420
families today the glenn beck program let me tell you about my patriot supply there may come a time

We are at the third anniversary of the Afghan withdrawal and the loss of life and the Taliban
01:26:54.420
taking all of our equipment and taking the country over.
01:27:05.720
He was with the president today laying a wreath at the Fallen Soldiers Memorial.
01:27:14.860
And he's going to talk to us about that coming up in just a second.
01:27:19.220
Also, the Pentagon was, you know, insisting that there was no chaos on the ground.
01:27:27.560
Well, unfortunately, some memos have been unearthed that show that the administration was doing
01:27:34.580
everything they could to lie to the American people about what was really going on.
01:27:44.600
So I've been aware of the good that American financing is doing in people's lives for a long time now.
01:27:54.160
That's why I've been so happy to partner with them throughout the years.
01:27:57.700
And if you've been listening to me when I ran about them, but you haven't given them a call yet,
01:28:07.500
It'll take you max 10 minutes, but you'll be glad you did.
01:28:10.980
You have no idea of the money they could be saving you every single month and every little bit counts.
01:28:17.020
For over two decades, American financing has been helping people just like you to get where they need to be.
01:28:23.520
And they could help you and your family as well.
01:28:28.260
You might be surprised at the options you didn't even know you had from mortgage refis to other forms of debt consolidation,
01:28:34.540
even accessing the high equity you have in your home to pay off the high interest debts.
01:28:40.020
American financing could be saving you hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as a thousand.
01:28:45.280
Call American financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to Americanfinancing.net.
01:28:56.740
APR for rates in the five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.
01:29:00.500
Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
01:29:04.080
So the Biden Pentagon was insisting that the withdrawal wasn't chaotic, but through Freedom of Information Act,
01:29:18.260
we finally have the emails that were going to Kirby.
01:29:23.180
And he was receiving briefings from diplomats and military officials there on the ground that were frantic to, quote,
01:29:33.580
stabilize the crisis, particularly at the Kabul airport where the evacuations of Americans were taking place.
01:29:49.660
Even as people were falling from the sky as they were holding on to the tires of U.S. airplanes,
01:30:00.820
But there's just another example of them asking you, telling you, to not believe your eyes.
01:30:08.000
Meanwhile, the Taliban on the third anniversary, they are ruling Afghanistan.
01:30:18.460
They just banned women's voices and bare faces in public.
01:30:47.620
If you remember the Abbey Gate, the Abbey Gate was protected by our boys.
01:30:58.880
And I know because our people were talking to them shortly before the gate was blown up.
01:31:09.080
They were trying to get somebody to allow the people that we had on a plane.
01:31:22.420
They then handed all of their documents to the Taliban at the airport.
01:31:27.380
We got those guys away from the Taliban as fast as we possibly could.
01:31:45.760
Let me give you one of the parents speaking about this during a Fox News interview.
01:31:54.300
Has anyone reached out to you from the administration?
01:32:17.100
If you remember, let me remind you because the press won't, Kamala Harris was deeply involved
01:32:31.200
Let me take you back to an interview with CNN in 2021.
01:32:50.620
This is a president who has an extraordinary amount of courage.
01:33:00.820
That's what you were told in 2021 by Kamala Harris.
01:33:04.080
She was the last person in the room, and she was comfortable with all of the decisions.
01:33:13.200
Well, my son, who I don't think has ever been on the air with me before, is in Washington, D.C.
01:33:20.440
He's representing our family that couldn't be there to lay a wreath with the president.
01:33:29.300
Well, I got to say, this is the oddest one-on-one time I've ever had with you, but I'm good.
01:33:37.980
Uh, so you were, uh, where was it at, um, Arlington?
01:33:44.660
We, uh, I'm currently still at Arlington, uh, the memorial.
01:33:47.960
We were, uh, there at the tomb of the unknown soldier.
01:33:51.380
And I mean, it was, it was peaceful and beautiful.
01:33:55.440
The, the, the, the ceremony, um, with the families, just spending time with them.
01:34:05.160
I went up and I was able to just, um, express my gratitude to their, their lost and loved
01:34:12.180
ones who sacrificed and unfortunately lost their lives in service of freedom and true freedom
01:34:21.080
and wanting to share that with not just other Americans and in defense of this country, but
01:34:27.720
with the rest of the world who, and I just was touched to hear, uh, to talk to them today.
01:34:35.380
Well, um, I'm glad you were, I'm glad you were there and had a chance to, uh, tell them that
01:34:47.200
And, uh, and I think we're going to see them, uh, are they not, are they coming down to Dallas?
01:34:55.020
I think we're going to be doing an interview with all of them.
01:34:58.440
Um, uh, I don't know if you've heard any of that.
01:35:01.300
I believe they're coming out to Utah for, uh, for that interview.
01:35:05.180
Um, that's, that's all I've heard about it though.
01:35:17.880
I've learned that good people there, they tend to go really unnoticed.
01:35:26.080
Just walking through the, um, the cemetery here and up to the tomb and, and watching
01:35:33.360
the ceremony, just the, the deeds of every, everyday people who risk so much just for
01:35:50.040
And it really, I mean, it really puts things into perspective, what we, what we have here
01:35:58.940
and not just with our country, but with our family.
01:36:04.760
I mean, how many, the people and listening to them and just, I mean, there were tears.
01:36:10.820
Yes, but there was also some happy moments and remembrance of, of family.
01:36:27.500
Um, I want to spend just a minute to thank you for what you did all those years ago, three
01:36:39.240
Um, we just had a, uh, board meeting with Mercury one and, uh, we are hoping to be out
01:36:55.240
I believe we are the only, um, NGO, if you will, that is still in Afghanistan, but there
01:37:04.760
are still people there that we have made promises to, and, uh, we won't leave until they leave.
01:37:12.320
Um, but we are, we are still on the ground in Afghanistan and that is all thanks to you.
01:37:18.640
I can't imagine what it is like for our operatives to be in that country and in and out of that
01:37:28.560
Um, but I thank them and I thank you for making it possible.
01:37:36.500
Uh, also this week, I'm going to be up in Washington, DC.
01:37:40.640
My son's actually going back with me to Washington.
01:37:44.680
Um, we're going to be at the moms for Liberty summit.
01:37:51.300
It's me and, um, oh, and Tulsi Gabbard and the president.
01:38:13.860
Um, we're marching for children to the, um, to the altar of Liberty, if you will.
01:38:21.880
Um, the, uh, Jefferson Memorial, and it's kind of a hard memorial to get to.
01:38:42.120
He was the guy who wrote the declaration of independence.
01:38:45.660
And it is time that we, um, stop this independence movement where the, the state is saying you're
01:38:59.020
Uh, and you could come on over here and we'll be mom and dad for you.
01:39:02.740
No, no, somebody's got to stand for our kids in school.
01:39:08.080
Somebody's got to stand for our kids in the hospital.
01:39:10.800
Somebody's got to stand for our kids when it comes to, um, uh, pedophilia, uh, drag queen
01:39:17.740
shows, somebody's got to stand for our children.
01:39:21.160
So March for children, it is in Washington, DC at the Jefferson Memorial, uh, on Saturday.
01:39:30.400
All you have to do is go to, um, moms for liberty, moms for liberty.org and find out all of the
01:39:38.600
And I'll see you in Washington, DC this weekend.
01:39:42.260
In, uh, uh, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
01:39:46.460
It's international, um, support for, uh, Israel with Jews and Christians.
01:39:54.800
This is something that I think is so profoundly good.
01:39:58.940
Um, you know, we cannot, we can't ask for God's help if we're not doing everything we can to live
01:40:14.180
Uh, and we have to be people of merit and, uh, you know, he's very clear.
01:40:24.980
Those who don't, you know, some trouble coming our way.
01:40:27.900
The international fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on the forefront of helping
01:40:33.460
the Jewish nation to be able to, uh, just survive what the world does.
01:40:40.080
We're partnering with them today, uh, and it's life-saving donations that you could make.
01:40:46.020
You'll help provide emergency food as well as critical security needs.
01:40:50.440
Things like flak jackets, firefighting equipment, armored vehicles, bomb shelters.
01:40:59.420
Please help the international fellowship of Christians and Jews.
01:41:02.640
They're asking 500 of my listeners to join the fellowship and me by donating $150 to meet
01:41:11.200
And thanks to a generous IFCJ supporter, your, your gift is going to be matched.
01:41:27.920
So I know I believe Boeing when they say, no, no, no, they're, everything is fine.
01:41:46.660
I believe Boeing, their new Starliner is the future.
01:41:51.240
Uh, I believe, I believe NASA when they said, no, they're just doing some extra.
01:41:59.000
It had nothing to do with, you know, uh, Boeing almost killing all of the people on board
01:42:09.740
Uh, and they've decided now to stay until March.
01:42:13.260
This was an eight day mission and now they're staying till March.
01:42:20.940
Well, um, I mean, they just love it up there in the first place.
01:42:28.000
I hear, um, but, uh, that and, uh, SpaceX, that damn Elon Musk can't get his dragon capsule
01:42:40.620
Isn't it just like Elon Musk, Stu, to screw this up, to make those poor Boeing astronauts
01:42:52.780
You can't, anything to, to further his own interests.
01:43:01.340
Imagine how hard it must be for the government to admit they have to rely on Elon Musk.
01:43:07.160
And even in this situation, not to mention how damaging it is to Boeing.
01:43:10.840
I mean, you've mentioned this before, but it's like, this is an American institution
01:43:13.960
that has crumbled to the ground in front of our eyes.
01:43:18.560
I remember, I remember when they launched the, uh, the, the new spacecraft, the Starliner.
01:43:24.460
And I thought, boy, there better not be a challenger thing happened with this thing
01:43:36.820
They're not sure that it won't burn up on re-entry.
01:43:41.700
And you could see, look, you can understand from NASA's perspective, obviously, if they
01:43:46.400
allow them to come back down on this thing and it, and there's a problem, they're going
01:43:53.100
So I can understand them trying to, uh, to, to do everything they can to go with a more
01:43:59.460
But you know, the fact that Boeing, this is Boeing, this is like a Kleenex type of brand
01:44:17.500
And the way Boeing, have you noticed Boeing is just kind of dropped out of the news?
01:44:25.200
But I mean, but I haven't heard anybody saying, well, there goes Boeing.
01:44:32.160
It's been, uh, it's not like when they were in trouble because, you know, doors were falling
01:44:41.420
You launched people into space and you can't bring them home.
01:44:50.340
That's what Trump means by make America great again.
01:44:55.340
Let's have our, you know, our beloved American companies not go down the crap hole for DEI.
01:45:10.820
That basically like this was, it was advertised as a test flight.
01:45:14.940
They said that flying through space is difficult.
01:45:18.820
It's the first time they've ever, ever put a capsule up there with people on it.
01:45:26.160
They had a couple of thrusters that went out that, you know, they, and a little helium leak.
01:45:30.620
Well, I remember, I remember when the government, which screws up everything.
01:45:34.400
I remember the government when they put John Glenn up in that first space capsule.
01:45:50.040
But I mean, Elon Musk obviously had a ton of efforts blow up on the way, you know, like, I mean, this is not an easy thing to do.
01:46:02.000
This is, I mean, again, I'm just parroting their PR department here.
01:46:05.320
I'm not necessarily making this argument myself.
01:46:07.180
But I mean, there is, it is obviously a really hard thing to do.
01:46:14.940
They think, I mean, Boeing straight out believes there's no problem here, that they should be able to come back at this thing.
01:46:21.100
NASA is, they're saying NASA is being overprotective.
01:46:25.660
Or is it maybe the astronauts going, I'm not getting into that damn thing.
01:46:30.680
By the way, speaking of the government ruining everything, Ford has admitted now that the strategy of embracing hybrids over fully electric cars will now cost the company as much as $1.5 billion in additional expenses.
01:46:49.360
The Ford EV division is on pace to lose as much as $5.5 billion this year.
01:47:07.940
I am so happy with this, this Green New Deal and DEI.
01:47:18.380
Sometimes the answer to your problem that you're dealing with is staring you right in the face.
01:47:23.500
You either don't notice it or you've been ignoring it all along.
01:47:26.840
If you're one of those people who lived with frequent or even constant pain, you might have gotten to that point where you just kind of accept how life is.
01:47:37.200
I know I was there, but I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be that way.
01:47:41.380
The answer may be right in front of you right now.
01:47:49.140
I listen to the commercials every day, and I was like, yeah, I'm not going to try that.
01:48:03.940
70% of the people who try it go on to order more every month.
01:48:08.420
It's a 100% drug-free daily supplement that helps your body fight that pain.
01:48:12.800
And developed by doctors, it uses a unique formula of natural ingredients to address the inflammation in your body, which is where the pain starts.
01:48:27.740
Glenn's new book, bestseller, Chasing Embers, is out now.
01:48:31.600
You can get it at glennbeck.com or wherever you get your books.
01:48:51.020
This is a trivia question that only the deepest of fans and maybe one or two people on my staff could ever answer.
01:49:00.180
Who is the program director for the Glenn Beck program?
01:49:04.940
If you're ever in some sort of trivial pursuit with us, the answer would be Dom Theodore.
01:49:17.220
And he has been, and his county, have been fighting this giant EV battery plant with a company that has ties to the CCP.
01:49:30.980
In fact, I think that's not even fair to say it has ties.
01:49:36.720
It's subsidized by the CCP, and they just declared that in a Thera filing just a few weeks ago, officially.
01:49:47.200
So they finally admitted it after lying all this time.
01:49:50.100
All right, so we've talked about this before in the past, and the reason why I'm talking to you today is you've got a couple of things that are good news, but also J.D. Vance is doing a rally at the farm where you guys first had the rally, right?
01:50:09.760
The farm is right across the street from the proposed site, and this has been sort of ground zero in the battle.
01:50:18.680
It's the Majestic Farisian's Horse Farm, and we do indeed have Senator Vance coming in tomorrow at a big rally there, and we want to invite everyone to attend.
01:50:30.520
And you know, Glenn, how this got started, it was really Goshen being caught in another lie that drove this.
01:50:38.500
Because just a few weeks ago, President Trump was speaking in Grand Rapids and made some remarks about returning jobs to America and bringing jobs back from China.
01:50:52.240
Goshen, in their arrogance, puts out a press release claiming that somehow President Trump supported Goshen.
01:51:00.060
Well, this is where President Trump's mean tweets come in handy, because just a couple of weeks later on Truth Social this past week, he, of course, addressed that and said, no, I don't support this.
01:51:15.380
It's going to put our little community here in Michigan under the thumb of the CCP in Beijing.
01:51:20.720
And so, you know, thankfully, President Trump came and cleared that up really quick.
01:51:27.280
And then on top of it, that helped us secure this rally tomorrow with J.D. Vance.
01:51:33.480
So we're excited to have him here, and we want to make sure that, you know, that the place is packed.
01:51:39.640
We really want to show Goshen that, you know, how much Michigan doesn't want them here.
01:51:44.940
And so this is at the Majestic Farigian's Horse Farm.
01:51:56.540
If you want more information, we have posted the link, and you can also register.
01:52:01.480
It's not required, but we'd like people to register for headcount.
01:52:04.400
And that can be found on our website, protectmecosta, M-E-C-O-S-T-A, dot org.
01:52:15.740
So if any of the listeners want to join us tomorrow, doors open at 1030, and Senator Vance will be speaking around 130.
01:52:27.220
We want a big showing tomorrow, Glenn, to really, really bring home the message that the CCP is not welcome here.
01:52:34.400
Let me just use the world's most expensive paging system to say, Ricky, Ricky, will you just tweet that out for me, the address and all of the information?
01:52:47.180
So that's just so she can hear me down the hall.
01:52:51.280
Anyway, so do you think you're winning on this?
01:52:59.260
We had some really good news in the last few months.
01:53:02.000
I think the last time we spoke, you and I, about this was when we were going into the election, the recall elections.
01:53:10.180
And I'll have you know, we won every one of the recalls in the last cycle.
01:53:15.060
And we picked, you know, there were two seats that were ineligible for recall in the last election.
01:53:19.800
Well, in the August primaries, we actually picked up another seat in Green Charter Township.
01:53:28.500
And we ran candidates, no Goshen candidates, against all of the county commissioners.
01:53:34.800
And I'm proud to say that we have now a majority of the Mecosta County Commission as well.
01:53:41.180
In many cases, most of these elections, the primary is the general because they're all Republicans.
01:53:51.020
You know, the other thing I want to mention, Glenn, we talk about this often.
01:54:00.400
When you look at the number of people, the talent that have come together in this cause, it's amazing.
01:54:09.560
And the fact, you know, that I happen to live here and I work for you, you know, I mean, this has brought us so much access to so many things.
01:54:18.020
And that's God, you know, my friend, Ormond Hook, who you met a while ago, he's helped us, you know, fight this battle.
01:54:28.980
And, you know, he said he likes to say it like this.
01:54:33.820
God, you know, has brought together an amazing collection of talent here to fight this battle.
01:54:43.940
And, you know, it's just an awesome thing to see when you see it in action.
01:54:49.840
And, you know, you've always said that the solution is going to be divine intervention.
01:55:12.360
It is to stop the CCP from coming into this town.
01:55:16.940
And literally in their bylaws, they will have classes to recruit people into the Communist Party.
01:55:28.040
I mean, it's really a remarkable thing that, you know, these commissioners thought that they could get by their own town.
01:55:36.220
But this is what it really looks like when you take control of your country again.
01:55:43.260
You just start with your commissioners and your city council and you flip that.
01:55:49.000
You start with your school board and you flip it.
01:55:53.820
It's going to happen from the bottom up, never the top down.
01:56:01.660
So, Stu, I read a story today and I just thought it was important to share.
01:56:16.560
And she's now going to the gun range to make sure that she can protect herself.
01:56:23.800
And she's, I don't know, do you know Tiffany Santos?
01:56:31.960
Well, she's taking up shooting lessons to protect herself against men who are really unable to resist her undeniable beauty.
01:56:43.840
She said in an interview, being too beautiful brings a lot of risks.
01:56:55.040
And I read that this morning and I thought, boy, I can relate.
01:57:08.520
No, being too good looking, Stu, is just a curse.
01:57:26.060
You know, I have to carry a gun because I'm too beautiful.
01:57:31.860
Legitimately like, don't hate me because I'm beautiful.
01:57:46.580
Everybody recognizes me for my beauty and my humility.
01:57:58.060
Did you know that last year alone, there were over a million reports of identity theft?
01:58:02.580
We depend on the digital world, both in our personal lives and in business.
01:58:07.200
And one of the things that comes along with that is increased vulnerability of cybercrime.
01:58:13.680
It's important to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.
01:58:19.920
Lots of places can even accidentally expose your personal information.
01:58:23.720
That's why LifeLock monitors millions of data points a second to look for risks to your identity.

I just want to remind you that China is cutting off our military from a key mineral.
01:59:50.300
We can't do it for ourselves because, well, the red tape, you know, the environmentalists, all of that.
01:59:56.980
So we can't get this mineral that we need to make critical, you know, military weapons.
02:00:09.420
By the way, did you see in Kansas that a court has just said that illegal machine guns, not so illegal.
02:00:19.680
They said that ban on machine guns is unconstitutional.
02:00:23.700
There was a woman who was charged with possessing a machine gun, and the judge said, no, uh-uh.
02:00:37.620
I think the entire time it's been unconstitutional.
02:00:40.320
There was a case about three or four years ago in Texas where they tried to do the same thing, and it did not wind up working out.
02:00:46.740
I mean, it just seems like they've just drawn this line of, well, we don't really want those guns, so therefore they're unconstitutional.
02:00:58.700
I don't think it started with the gangsters in Chicago, you know, the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and Al Capone.
02:01:06.940
You know, they had machine guns, and everybody was like, oh, my gosh.
02:01:09.680
And Hoover, one of the great constitutional minds of the last century, you know, he got everybody together to ban them, just to fight crime, and it kind of stuck.
02:01:23.120
Yeah, there's this weird thing that wound up being a positive ruling generally for the Second Amendment, which was, you know, you're able to maintain a firearm for personal defense in private ownership, which happened, what was that, 2008, 2009?
02:01:39.580
But in there was this weird, I'll never understand how it actually works, but it's this sort of common use idea that if a gun is in common use, then it's okay.
02:01:49.740
Which doesn't make any sense, because obviously every new gun, for example, is not in common use yet, so you automatically could theoretically be banned.
02:02:00.140
There's so many holes in the, and it's so circuitous in the way they come around trying to justify why it's okay to ban machine guns and not other weapons.
02:02:09.680
Can you imagine how the left's head will explode if this stands?
02:02:21.820
By the way, another part of this is, it seems, you know, I've seen multiple examples of this, you know, where they test these weapons, and what they find is that people are far more accurate with guns that aren't machine guns.
02:02:36.600
So, people trying, you know, it's much harder to hit individual targets, and you wind up just wasting a bunch of bullets if you're trying to hit them.
02:02:44.600
Now, again, like, I understand the arguments against them.
02:02:48.920
I understand how politically harming it would be to a party arguing for this.
02:02:55.600
Luckily, we are not in the position to try to get, to need to get elected, so we can just actually stick by the Constitution.
02:03:06.480
The Second Amendment is clear that you can't just make these sort of determinations, and we keep trying to find this weird middle ground where we're actually for the Second Amendment, but we're not going to allow machine guns.
02:03:18.620
No, but, you know, from the other side, are we, you know, are we responsible enough?
02:03:29.420
Because this is where, you know, this whole system, yeah, this whole system breaks down if you're not a moral group of people.
02:03:38.860
You know, capitalism will give you drugs and pornography and everything bad if that's what you as a people want.
02:03:45.040
The invisible hand of the market will come and choke you to death if that's what you want, and it does.
02:03:52.080
And freedoms to have guns, it's a huge responsibility.
02:03:57.140
And luckily, there are enough people that own, I mean, there are 300 million plus weapons in our country that are legal, you know, and you're not seeing everybody go and taking those and using them.
02:04:15.340
And the good news is, Stu, I guess this is good news, looks like knife deaths are on the rise in places like New York.
02:04:35.480
I will say it's breaking news to me, if that's true, that migrants are not able to get guns because they seem to be able to get plenty of them and bring them across the border with them.
02:04:44.120
But I will say, if you remember the words of scholar Al Sharpton, who once said that you, what will happen if people start killing people with knives?
02:05:00.980
So get ready to cut that steak with a spoon because that's on the other side.
02:05:07.900
It'll be more of a spork because you can gouge people's eyes out with a spoon.
02:05:14.240
So, by the way, and our thoughts are with Anthony Fauci, who's just gone home from the hospital where he had West Nile virus.
02:05:24.820
He's going to make a full recovery, and I'm actually, sincerely happy to hear that because I want him at tip-top health while we try him and throw him in prison.
02:05:42.760
I would say there's a lot of support in this country for that particular initiative.
