00:02:49.360 and had plenty of stuff to talk about and without breaking a sweat i last night
00:02:55.940 a few things happen one i don't think i've ever made it to the end of a state of the union address
00:03:05.700 i don't think i've ever made it to the end especially one that was two hours long i've never
00:03:11.900 i you get 15 minutes into it and i'm like i can't take it anymore i can't take it anymore
00:03:17.980 when will this guy shut up that's what i'm saying about every single president that has ever
00:03:22.540 when will these people stop clapping sit down so we can get through this and when will this guy shut
00:03:27.740 up last night i was riveted absolutely riveted and i oh i have a lot to say we learned a lot
00:03:36.460 last night we'll get into that here in 60 seconds first let me tell you about the international
00:03:42.060 fellowship of christians and jews what does what does it actually mean in 2026 to stand with israel
00:03:48.880 in a world that feels increasingly unstable it's easy to stay the say the words well maybe not not
00:03:55.100 maybe not today not anymore i stand with israel oh good luck with that the headlines are constant
00:04:02.260 the threats are real the region around israel remains volatile and you may have lost friends
00:04:09.420 if you say yeah i believe jews have a right to live in their own nation and defend themselves
00:04:15.320 i don't necessarily have to agree with their wars i don't have to agree with the way they fight them
00:04:19.600 i don't have to go join them on that but i agree that they have a right to live oh my gosh when that
00:04:26.600 gets dangerous you know the world is in trouble the international fellowship of christians and jews
00:04:32.140 is providing tangible support they don't send bombs they build bomb shelters they deliver emergency
00:04:38.440 supplies they care for those who are at most risk in a shaking world standing with israel is a decision
00:04:45.480 to show up with real help when it matters most learn how you can bless israel and possibly be blessed in
00:04:51.440 return visit ifcj.org that's ifcj.org be the blessing live the word answer the call ifcj.org all right
00:05:00.660 i'm going to give you my overview and then i'm going to take it uh bit by bit uh and tell you
00:05:10.040 i guess there's places i just we just have to go you just have to go i just have to play the audio
00:05:16.980 because it was incredible last night last night was not a speech okay last night it was a mirror
00:05:24.700 and if you were watching carefully not through twitter not through the spin room not through cable
00:05:30.220 chyrons but actually watching the room you saw something that you should concern every democratic
00:05:38.280 strategist in america you saw something in the room that if you vote for the democrats should have
00:05:47.420 made you question who am i standing with the damage was not done by the president the damage was done
00:05:56.480 by the people who refused to stand or clap for the most obvious things
00:06:03.080 let me say something um plainly here this was the best speech president trump has ever given
00:06:11.540 i mean you want to talk about a mic drop and i urge you go back and look at the when he was walking out
00:06:18.000 i mean i think you will see it now when i point this out you will see it when he's walking out and
00:06:23.980 he's shaking people's hands on the way out the guy looks 20 years younger he looks like he's 60
00:06:30.460 when he walked he's walking out he walked in strong clear disciplined not tired not wandering
00:06:40.200 he was on prompter yes but he commanded the prompter unlike any time i've ever seen him give a speech
00:06:46.860 he had humor that landed he had key moments like the hockey team that was humor that was human that
00:06:55.580 was light that was confident the opening statistics i thought were overwhelming rapid fire border inflation
00:07:04.380 energy jobs there was a rhythm to this speech the most important thing is he did not look like he was
00:07:13.200 defensive and donald trump has has been on the defense for most of his presidency not necessarily this term
00:07:21.660 but last term and then when he was running for president and even towards the beginning of this first
00:07:29.700 or this second term he has been saying look it's going to be great
00:07:35.200 he no longer had to say that last night he was on the offense last night he looked certain
00:07:43.520 he knew what he had done and he was commanding as president of the united states but that's not the story
00:07:53.860 although that's big news that's not the story the story was the democrats
00:07:59.600 when you have a third of them not standing for the u.s hockey team
00:08:07.280 what is going on no real applause for the olympics or the world cup coming to america
00:08:17.340 muted response for the first world war ii veteran
00:08:22.740 um polite restrained clapping for the coast guard rescue mission what what
00:08:31.200 the moment that was the most powerful moment i have ever seen any president uh give other than
00:08:40.060 mr gorbachev tear down this wall there was no moment in presidential history in my lifetime
00:08:46.300 that was as strong as that until last night stand if you agree the first job of government is to
00:08:56.440 protect the american citizen and not foreign citizens that's the easiest applause line ever presented
00:09:06.940 in american politics that is you shouldn't even think you just stand up that's not even partisan
00:09:14.720 is the job of the american government congress to protect the american city a citizen or illegals
00:09:24.300 or foreign citizens
00:09:26.700 how what what happened
00:09:31.800 hesitation folding of arms looking down no one clapping no one standing up on that side of the
00:09:39.960 aisle it just play this out with me
00:09:44.720 that's something that even if you don't believe in you stand up for it's something that you you go
00:09:51.880 like i don't believe in this but this is going to look really really bad we all got to stand up
00:09:55.980 you don't damage your opponent when you do that you damage your brand this was the worst night for any brand
00:10:05.540 and maybe and maybe twice as bad for the night that coca-cola came out and said we're getting rid of the original recipe and we're going right for new coke
00:10:18.880 i mean that did brand damage like i've never seen before this i'm not sure the democrats survived the brand damage that they're doing right now
00:10:28.700 you know what i mean when you when you when you don't you can't stand for that
00:10:33.960 the american people last night were not watching like operatives
00:10:40.900 they were watching like parents
00:10:44.360 and parents understand instinctively
00:10:48.600 if you can't stand for protecting citizens something is very broken something is very wrong
00:10:56.040 the border section
00:10:58.460 was devastating to the democrats
00:11:01.760 angel moms
00:11:03.520 elizabeth stabbed 24 times
00:11:07.920 delilah
00:11:09.120 crushed by an 18 wheeler
00:11:11.600 now a little girl in first grade
00:11:13.680 kissing her father
00:11:15.300 you don't stand for that
00:11:18.280 calling for commercial license to be denied to illegal immigrants
00:11:23.040 because of her and calling it delilah's law
00:11:26.920 and you can't stand for that
00:11:29.160 you can't clap for removing
00:11:33.260 dangerous rapists and criminals from the country
00:11:36.820 think about this
00:11:38.200 we can disagree on immigration policy all you want
00:11:42.400 we can debate visa quotas
00:11:45.040 you can argue about asylum reform
00:11:47.260 but when you can't stand for deporting violent criminals
00:11:51.660 that's not a strategy
00:11:54.040 that's the end of your brand
00:11:56.400 that's moral confusion
00:11:58.260 i was stunned by that
00:12:03.240 because america looked at that and went
00:12:07.560 do these people hate our country
00:12:11.040 do they hate america
00:12:13.800 the average person
00:12:16.240 you had to walk away with that
00:12:18.700 the contrast on all of it
00:12:21.540 i mean the economic contrast
00:12:23.440 very sharp
00:12:24.420 he talked about you know
00:12:26.820 inflation
00:12:27.500 and how they drove up inflation
00:12:31.020 by spending too much energy
00:12:32.720 they drove up inflation
00:12:34.300 because they stopped drilling
00:12:35.880 you know
00:12:37.440 and he said
00:12:38.280 you caused this
00:12:39.440 your policies
00:12:40.620 your policies
00:12:40.720 caused this
00:12:41.920 i'm fixing it
00:12:43.600 crushing health care costs
00:12:45.660 everybody in the country knows
00:12:47.420 health care is being crushed
00:12:49.420 it's crushing people
00:12:51.720 you did
00:12:54.140 you promised
00:12:55.320 obamacare
00:12:56.240 you said
00:12:57.420 it would fix it
00:12:58.460 and it hasn't
00:12:59.300 it's made it worse
00:13:00.780 and i'm going in and fixing it
00:13:03.760 when he comes out
00:13:05.740 and he says
00:13:06.200 look
00:13:06.460 you're going to pay
00:13:07.580 what was it
00:13:08.440 the ivf thing
00:13:09.700 i got to get into that
00:13:12.400 when he talks about
00:13:14.580 any of the drug
00:13:15.480 drug costs
00:13:16.700 going from
00:13:17.300 four thousand dollars
00:13:18.640 to five hundred dollars
00:13:20.600 you can't stand
00:13:22.100 and applause for that
00:13:23.240 you can't
00:13:24.440 what
00:13:24.780 then taxes

00:15:04.700 401ks

00:15:10.060 I mean
00:15:11.080 I know
00:15:12.340 that
00:15:12.600 I know
00:15:13.100 that you
00:15:13.440 don't feel
00:15:14.080 it
00:15:14.340 and quite
00:15:15.240 frankly
00:15:15.660 it's hard
00:15:16.460 to feel
00:15:16.740 I
00:15:16.920 you know
00:15:17.500 I don't
00:15:17.980 feel it
00:15:18.320 when I go
00:15:18.700 to a
00:15:19.080 when I go
00:15:19.460 to a
00:15:19.720 fast food
00:15:20.280 restaurant
00:15:20.860 and I
00:15:21.360 I'm rolling
00:15:22.680 out of there
00:15:23.260 and it's
00:15:23.780 just Tanya
00:15:24.280 and I
00:15:24.640 and we've
00:15:25.040 just spent
00:15:25.340 35 bucks
00:15:26.120 at McDonald's
00:15:26.820 I have a hard
00:15:27.540 time going
00:15:28.080 inflation's
00:15:28.740 under control
00:15:29.380 so I get
00:15:30.680 it
00:15:30.940 if you're
00:15:31.800 trying to
00:15:32.200 buy a
00:15:32.500 house
00:15:32.800 I completely
00:15:33.560 get it
00:15:34.040 I don't
00:15:34.460 think
00:15:34.760 the average
00:15:35.560 person
00:15:35.980 feels it
00:15:36.720 yet
00:15:37.020 but I
00:15:37.540 don't
00:15:37.760 think
00:15:37.980 the average
00:15:38.420 person
00:15:38.820 has looked
00:15:39.300 at their
00:15:39.620 401k
00:15:40.600 either
00:15:41.040 how much
00:15:43.040 is the
00:15:43.400 average
00:15:43.800 401k
00:15:44.540 up
00:15:44.820 he said
00:15:45.460 since I
00:15:45.860 took office
00:15:46.300 the typical
00:15:46.780 401k
00:15:47.300 balance is up
00:15:47.920 by at
00:15:48.260 least
00:15:48.500 30,000
00:15:49.640 30,000
00:15:52.360 okay
00:15:54.220 you can't
00:15:56.380 applaud
00:15:56.780 for that
00:15:57.440 you can't
00:16:02.080 applaud
00:16:02.580 actually I
00:16:03.320 think I
00:16:04.200 think Elizabeth
00:16:04.820 Warren did
00:16:05.600 applauded for
00:16:06.940 the Wall
00:16:07.380 Street being
00:16:07.960 banned from
00:16:08.580 buying up
00:16:09.100 single-family
00:16:09.700 homes
00:16:10.140 she also
00:16:12.360 stood for
00:16:12.920 insider trading
00:16:13.880 they didn't
00:16:15.860 stand for
00:16:16.300 paying the
00:16:16.740 lowest
00:16:17.000 prescription
00:16:17.520 drug price
00:16:18.460 paid anywhere
00:16:19.540 in the
00:16:20.200 world
00:16:20.480 I have
00:16:21.200 always said
00:16:22.040 Democrats
00:16:23.140 why do you
00:16:23.900 have a
00:16:24.200 problem with
00:16:24.780 us overpaying
00:16:26.360 here in
00:16:26.660 America that
00:16:27.240 we're paying
00:16:27.720 the highest
00:16:28.200 drug price
00:16:28.820 in the
00:16:29.040 world
00:16:29.280 aren't we
00:16:30.360 the wealthiest
00:16:31.020 1% in
00:16:32.080 the entire
00:16:32.560 world
00:16:32.980 of course
00:16:33.440 we are
00:16:33.860 America
00:16:34.740 is when
00:16:35.620 you look
00:16:35.960 at it
00:16:36.220 globally
00:16:36.600 we are
00:16:37.360 the wealthiest
00:16:38.100 1% in
00:16:39.020 the world
00:16:39.380 you always
00:16:40.480 say the
00:16:41.120 wealthiest
00:16:41.540 1% should
00:16:42.440 pay more
00:16:43.040 well you
00:16:43.660 your drug
00:16:44.280 policy for
00:16:45.060 prescription
00:16:45.540 drugs the
00:16:46.460 way you
00:16:46.960 you allow
00:16:48.220 America to
00:16:49.660 have her
00:16:50.040 eyes pushed
00:16:51.020 in with
00:16:52.140 the thumbs
00:16:52.900 of the
00:16:53.900 insurance and
00:16:54.600 the drug
00:16:55.000 companies it
00:16:56.280 at least fits
00:16:57.280 your view that
00:16:58.400 the wealthiest
00:16:59.000 1% should
00:16:59.980 pay the
00:17:00.520 highest because
00:17:01.420 as a
00:17:02.720 collective
00:17:03.300 looking at
00:17:04.620 America even
00:17:05.260 the poorest are
00:17:06.200 among the
00:17:06.760 wealthiest 1%
00:17:08.000 in the
00:17:09.100 world but
00:17:10.940 he comes in
00:17:11.720 and he says
00:17:12.220 that's not
00:17:12.980 fair that's
00:17:13.840 not right
00:17:14.560 we should
00:17:16.160 not be
00:17:16.620 we're now
00:17:17.360 paying the
00:17:17.940 lowest and
00:17:20.680 you can't
00:17:21.680 recognize that
00:17:23.580 accomplishment
00:17:24.200 I mean you
00:17:29.420 can argue
00:17:30.220 policies you
00:17:32.100 can argue
00:17:32.780 whether any
00:17:33.520 of these
00:17:33.860 mechanisms will
00:17:34.820 work long
00:17:35.520 term that's
00:17:36.160 fair
00:17:36.520 but he
00:17:38.600 was offering
00:17:39.380 mechanisms
00:17:40.420 the Democrats
00:17:42.340 last night
00:17:43.160 offered facial
00:17:44.360 expressions
00:17:45.180 pins that
00:17:46.460 use the
00:17:47.540 full word
00:17:48.160 F ice
00:17:49.040 you see
00:17:50.200 Rashida
00:17:50.580 Tlaib
00:17:51.000 wearing a
00:17:52.220 pin that
00:17:52.640 said F
00:17:53.340 ice
00:17:53.960 that's
00:17:54.840 appropriate
00:17:55.600 they offered
00:17:59.560 angry
00:18:00.520 insults
00:18:01.880 screaming
00:18:02.600 on the
00:18:03.260 floor
00:18:03.680 I mean
00:18:04.820 I mean
00:18:06.500 do I
00:18:07.000 need to
00:18:07.360 go into
00:18:07.880 Joe
00:18:08.280 Wilson
00:18:08.680 do you
00:18:09.580 remember
00:18:09.820 what that
00:18:10.300 was all
00:18:10.660 about
00:18:11.020 under
00:18:11.860 Obama
00:18:12.280 during the
00:18:13.060 debate on
00:18:13.720 Obamacare
00:18:14.380 he said
00:18:16.240 look you
00:18:16.780 gotta pass
00:18:17.500 Obamacare
00:18:18.220 it's gotta
00:18:18.620 be done
00:18:19.200 because it
00:18:19.960 doesn't have
00:18:20.560 anything that
00:18:21.240 these people
00:18:21.760 say it
00:18:22.160 will it
00:18:22.660 will never
00:18:23.220 be used
00:18:24.060 to support
00:18:26.040 health care
00:18:27.540 for illegal
00:18:28.260 aliens
00:18:28.800 that's an
00:18:30.300 absolute blatant
00:18:31.040 lie it was a
00:18:31.960 blatant lie
00:18:32.520 then it's a
00:18:33.140 blatant lie
00:18:33.580 now look at
00:18:34.240 it but he
00:18:35.840 said that
00:18:36.380 and Joe
00:18:36.960 Wilson could
00:18:37.600 not take
00:18:38.280 it and so
00:18:38.880 he said
00:18:39.460 you lie
00:18:40.740 what happened
00:18:42.960 what happened
00:18:44.920 it was like
00:18:45.580 the whole
00:18:46.200 world caved
00:18:47.440 in
00:18:47.840 you can't
00:18:49.520 do that
00:18:50.000 how dare
00:18:50.940 you say
00:18:51.420 that
00:18:51.780 he had to
00:18:53.380 apologize
00:18:53.900 the next
00:18:54.500 day
00:18:54.800 the president
00:18:55.820 then accepted
00:18:57.320 his apology
00:18:58.240 but that
00:18:59.880 wasn't good
00:19:00.340 enough for the
00:19:00.840 Democrats
00:19:01.240 they didn't
00:19:02.080 accept it
00:19:02.820 you know
00:19:03.560 John McCain
00:19:04.320 everybody
00:19:04.940 was on
00:19:05.580 fire
00:19:06.120 because he
00:19:06.680 said two
00:19:07.160 words
00:19:07.520 you lie
00:19:08.420 last night
00:19:10.720 they were
00:19:12.040 screaming
00:19:12.640 you kill
00:19:13.780 Americans
00:19:14.520 from the
00:19:16.980 from the
00:19:17.780 floor
00:19:18.500 representatives
00:19:21.940 were screaming
00:19:23.120 you kill
00:19:24.340 Americans
00:19:25.080 and nobody
00:19:26.460 says anything
00:19:27.200 it was
00:19:31.220 incredible
00:19:31.720 when he
00:19:32.140 said
00:19:32.360 Republicans
00:19:32.800 voted for
00:19:33.440 tax cuts
00:19:34.180 and every
00:19:35.180 Democrat
00:19:35.680 voted against
00:19:36.660 them
00:19:36.900 they sat
00:19:38.120 when he
00:19:39.540 said stop
00:19:40.460 insider trading
00:19:41.640 in Congress
00:19:42.420 Elizabeth Warren
00:19:45.080 stood
00:19:45.580 Democrats
00:19:46.920 did not
00:19:48.020 when he
00:19:49.960 said we're
00:19:50.360 putting the
00:19:50.820 American
00:19:51.160 worker first
00:19:52.240 arms folded
00:19:53.300 do you know
00:19:55.520 what the
00:19:55.780 American voters
00:19:56.620 saw last
00:19:57.140 night
00:19:57.440 resentment
00:20:00.120 resentment
00:20:02.320 hatred
00:20:05.580 for America
00:20:06.600 it was the
00:20:07.260 most patriotic
00:20:08.900 speech I have
00:20:09.660 seen given
00:20:10.380 by a president
00:20:11.120 in a very
00:20:11.760 long time
00:20:12.460 and
00:20:14.600 they looked
00:20:16.700 like they
00:20:17.140 hated America
00:20:18.080 there's so
00:20:19.500 much more
00:20:19.900 I've got to
00:20:20.220 get into
00:20:20.580 let me take
00:20:21.040 a quick
00:20:21.340 quick break
00:20:21.900 tell you
00:20:22.520 about our
00:20:22.820 sponsor
00:20:23.220 our sponsor
00:20:24.180 this half
00:20:24.560 hour is
00:20:24.840 the
00:20:24.960 Burna
00:20:25.200 launcher
00:20:25.560 you're
00:20:26.480 hiking
00:20:26.740 with your
00:20:27.100 daughter
00:20:27.360 on a
00:20:27.640 trail
00:20:27.860 you've
00:20:28.100 walked
00:20:28.320 a dozen
00:20:28.960 times
00:20:29.500 you're
00:20:29.980 talking
00:20:30.180 about
00:20:30.460 school
00:20:31.000 you're
00:20:31.380 talking
00:20:31.660 about
00:20:32.080 you know
00:20:32.420 life
00:20:32.820 nothing
00:20:33.260 in
00:20:33.440 particular
00:20:33.880 then you
00:20:34.640 hear
00:20:34.780 footsteps
00:20:35.120 that don't
00:20:36.240 quite
00:20:36.480 match
00:20:36.840 yours
00:20:37.280 at first
00:20:38.000 you tell
00:20:38.420 yourself
00:20:38.860 it's
00:20:39.520 really
00:20:39.780 nothing
00:20:40.240 and then
00:20:41.440 it just
00:20:41.780 keeps
00:20:42.100 coming
00:20:42.400 you glance
00:20:42.840 back
00:20:43.180 you notice
00:20:43.500 the man
00:20:43.780 behind
00:20:44.060 you isn't
00:20:44.460 looking at
00:20:44.840 the scenery
00:20:45.220 he's not
00:20:45.840 checking
00:20:46.140 a map
00:20:46.540 he's not
00:20:47.040 passing
00:20:47.400 you
00:20:47.640 he's just
00:20:48.200 staying
00:20:48.520 right there
00:20:49.000 close enough
00:20:49.620 to notice
00:20:50.100 far enough
00:20:50.900 to deny
00:20:51.480 moments
00:20:52.520 like that
00:20:52.940 your brain
00:20:53.360 runs through
00:20:53.820 some options
00:20:54.400 pretty quickly
00:20:55.060 you could
00:20:56.020 panic
00:20:56.440 what are you
00:20:57.180 going to

00:21:57.000 last night
00:21:58.340 tech companies
00:21:59.760 building their
00:22:00.560 own power
00:22:01.200 plants

00:23:45.840 lives
00:23:46.460 and they
00:23:47.700 turn what
00:23:48.100 used to be
00:23:48.640 safe and
00:23:49.080 familiar
00:23:49.380 into something
00:23:49.920 unrecognizable
00:23:50.840 and after
00:23:51.720 the cameras
00:23:52.220 leave and

00:25:10.900 and continuity
00:25:12.700 that he is
00:25:13.820 moving in
00:25:14.940 this direction
00:25:15.980 and it's
00:25:16.960 all a plan

00:25:19.200 being executed
00:25:20.080 piece by piece

00:25:24.260 of it
00:25:24.780 the Democrats

00:25:27.060 fatigue
00:25:27.720 and defiance
00:25:28.780 you know
00:25:29.560 and they had
00:25:30.120 the state

00:25:41.120 it was insane
00:25:42.460 it was insane
00:25:43.720 here's the problem
00:25:45.800 for the Democrats
00:25:46.500 the country
00:25:47.300 is exhausted
00:25:48.800 we're exhausted
00:25:49.860 by inflation

00:25:51.700 by disorder
00:25:52.560 we're exhausted
00:25:53.640 by cultural
00:25:54.460 warfare
00:25:55.000 and when somebody
00:25:56.560 stands up
00:25:57.380 and can say
00:25:58.160 from 1776
00:25:59.660 to today
00:26:00.480 we built
00:26:02.900 a nation
00:26:03.440 for our
00:26:04.020 children
00:26:04.640 people lean
00:26:06.780 in
00:26:07.140 when the
00:26:09.680 response
00:26:10.240 is silence
00:26:11.640 people
00:26:12.580 notice
00:26:13.580 you don't have
00:26:15.300 to love
00:26:15.560 everything the
00:26:16.080 president said
00:26:16.640 last night
00:26:17.020 you don't have
00:26:17.320 to love
00:26:17.760 every word
00:26:18.240 he said
00:26:18.600 or how
00:26:18.820 he said
00:26:19.220 it
00:26:19.340 you don't
00:26:19.600 have to
00:26:19.860 you don't
00:26:20.260 have to
00:26:20.440 agree
00:26:20.560 with every
00:26:20.920 policy
00:26:21.420 this
00:26:22.200 was a
00:26:22.940 massive
00:26:24.160 strategic
00:26:25.100 mistake
00:26:25.700 okay
00:26:26.160 for them
00:26:28.420 to sit
00:26:29.180 every
00:26:30.240 single
00:26:30.740 time
00:26:31.220 and
00:26:33.460 and
00:26:36.100 not
00:26:36.800 stand
00:26:37.580 for
00:26:38.380 things
00:26:40.760 that are
00:26:41.060 obvious
00:26:41.480 and easy
00:26:42.320 is such
00:26:43.060 a missed
00:26:43.380 opportunity
00:26:43.800 they could
00:26:44.200 have stood
00:26:44.500 for the
00:26:44.760 veterans
00:26:45.140 they could
00:26:46.300 have stood
00:26:46.580 for protecting
00:26:47.260 citizens
00:26:47.980 they could
00:26:48.960 have stood
00:26:49.320 for lowering
00:26:50.040 drug prices
00:26:50.940 they could
00:26:51.740 have stood
00:26:52.220 for banning
00:26:53.020 congressional
00:26:53.680 insider
00:26:54.480 trading
00:26:55.100 they chose
00:26:56.700 not to
00:26:57.640 and when you
00:26:58.520 refuse to
00:26:59.140 stand for
00:26:59.800 things that
00:27:00.280 are broadly
00:27:00.960 popular
00:27:01.680 emotionally
00:27:03.660 resonant
00:27:04.880 themes
00:27:05.460 you don't
00:27:08.200 look principled
00:27:08.940 I don't
00:27:10.480 even think
00:27:10.800 you look
00:27:11.060 partisan
00:27:11.520 you look
00:27:13.100 anti-american
00:27:14.480 the democratic
00:27:16.620 party last
00:27:17.300 night did
00:27:17.740 more to
00:27:18.200 damage its
00:27:18.780 own brand
00:27:19.440 than any
00:27:20.280 attack ad
00:27:21.240 any other
00:27:21.980 politician
00:27:22.600 could have
00:27:23.080 ever done
00:27:23.700 they did
00:27:24.840 the brand
00:27:25.420 damage
00:27:25.920 themselves
00:27:26.860 americans
00:27:28.340 are not
00:27:28.780 going to
00:27:29.020 remember in
00:27:29.440 a week
00:27:29.880 the statistic
00:27:31.180 that he
00:27:31.700 said or
00:27:32.240 got wrong
00:27:32.720 they will
00:27:34.320 remember for
00:27:35.300 a very long
00:27:36.420 time who
00:27:37.420 stood
00:27:38.000 who clapped
00:27:39.660 and who
00:27:40.960 didn't
00:27:41.660 in a country
00:27:43.680 that is still
00:27:44.480 deep down
00:27:45.540 we want to
00:27:47.340 believe we're
00:27:48.220 on the same
00:27:48.800 team
00:27:49.360 in a country
00:27:51.400 where we
00:27:51.960 we still
00:27:52.860 believe we're
00:27:53.800 decent we're
00:27:54.560 good we can
00:27:55.400 save our
00:27:56.180 nation
00:27:56.740 refusing to
00:27:59.680 stand for
00:28:00.300 the for
00:28:01.120 the team
00:28:01.920 when it's
00:28:02.640 team
00:28:03.000 america
00:28:03.800 is not a
00:28:05.120 winning strategy
00:28:05.940 last night
00:28:06.960 was not a
00:28:07.520 speech it
00:28:08.080 was a
00:28:08.460 contrast it
00:28:10.020 was brilliant
00:28:11.160 one side
00:28:12.920 saying protect
00:28:13.800 the border cut
00:28:14.660 taxes lower
00:28:15.480 costs defend
00:28:16.320 retirement build
00:28:17.260 energy put
00:28:17.960 americans first
00:28:18.820 and the other
00:28:19.860 side saying
00:28:20.880 nope I
00:28:22.820 don't even
00:28:23.140 think that
00:28:23.540 that's our
00:28:23.900 job is to
00:28:24.520 protect americans
00:28:25.520 oh my
00:28:26.900 that is
00:28:28.360 truly remarkable

00:28:44.440 politics and
00:28:45.180 last night the
00:28:45.860 tone shifted
00:28:47.080 and if the
00:28:49.100 democrats don't
00:28:49.900 understand the
00:28:50.520 damage they did
00:28:51.180 themselves by
00:28:51.980 sitting down
00:28:52.940 when america

00:29:52.740 americans who
00:29:53.300 disagree with
00:29:53.840 policies that's
00:29:55.660 the way democrats
00:29:56.280 have always been
00:29:56.860 republicans always
00:29:57.600 been that we
00:29:58.260 just disagree on
00:29:58.880 policies second
00:30:00.280 option americans
00:30:01.620 who have lost
00:30:02.480 sight of america's
00:30:03.980 goal and her
00:30:05.460 people okay i have
00:30:10.100 to add a third
00:30:10.640 one people who
00:30:12.740 care more about
00:30:13.820 power money and
00:30:15.220 other outside
00:30:16.660 forces over
00:30:18.460 americans and
00:30:19.600 america
00:30:20.060 america i can
00:30:21.600 go deeper on
00:30:22.340 that people who
00:30:23.860 do not like or
00:30:26.040 love our country
00:30:27.560 but you're to
00:30:30.320 me i'm c or if
00:30:32.880 i add a d that's
00:30:35.480 what i saw last
00:30:36.340 night i didn't see
00:30:37.080 people who disagreed
00:30:37.940 with policies i
00:30:39.300 didn't see people
00:30:39.980 who have lost sight
00:30:41.040 of you know because
00:30:42.600 of donald trump and
00:30:43.560 they hate him so
00:30:44.160 much they've lost
00:30:44.780 sight of america's
00:30:45.860 goal they don't
00:30:47.400 like america that's
00:30:49.000 what i saw last
00:30:49.960 night that's what
00:30:50.700 i felt feelings i'm
00:30:53.040 sorry i know facts
00:30:54.480 don't care about
00:30:55.060 your feelings but
00:30:56.360 perception is
00:30:57.880 reality and when
00:30:59.940 you can cement
00:31:00.980 things with your
00:31:02.680 eyes with your
00:31:03.920 ears this was not
00:31:05.000 somebody telling you
00:31:06.040 this you experienced
00:31:07.860 it last night you
00:31:09.360 viscerally saw these
00:31:10.900 people say no it's
00:31:13.500 not our job to
00:31:14.300 protect americans
00:31:15.300 over illegals
00:31:17.020 what
00:31:18.360 it's jaw-dropping
00:31:21.280 absolutely jaw-dropping
00:31:22.960 can i add one thing
00:31:24.760 yeah
00:31:25.120 there were so many
00:31:27.520 human moments last
00:31:28.560 night that you'd
00:31:29.900 have to almost be
00:31:31.080 inhuman to not have
00:31:33.120 a response like
00:31:35.240 tearing up clapping
00:31:36.980 supporting smiling
00:31:38.640 and it made me think
00:31:40.680 that is it possible
00:31:42.080 that they hate trump
00:31:43.260 more than they love
00:31:44.380 the country and it
00:31:45.600 made me very sad
00:31:46.600 so give me one of
00:31:48.100 those give me one of
00:31:48.980 those you should play
00:31:49.640 something from from
00:31:50.600 last night give me one
00:31:52.220 of those moments um
00:31:53.660 let me look at the
00:31:54.720 cuts that we have
00:31:56.540 stalling vamping as
00:31:58.380 they say in our
00:31:59.240 industry
00:31:59.740 i'm gonna leave you
00:32:02.580 hanging there i'm
00:32:03.280 gonna leave you
00:32:03.540 hanging um the one
00:32:04.660 where we were talking
00:32:06.020 about uh the donald
00:32:08.340 trump introduces the
00:32:09.360 mom who lost that's
00:32:10.340 cut 11 let's play cut
00:32:11.540 11 please
00:32:12.100 and yesterday as you
00:32:15.460 probably saw at the
00:32:16.520 white house i hosted a
00:32:17.840 ceremony with americans
00:32:19.760 who lost their treasured
00:32:21.340 loved ones to the
00:32:22.960 scourge of illegal
00:32:24.480 immigration people came
00:32:26.880 into our country how we
00:32:28.160 allowed this to happen
00:32:29.140 with our open borders
00:32:30.260 these are the angel moms
00:32:32.400 and families that for
00:32:33.720 decades our government
00:32:35.420 betrayed and our media
00:32:36.920 totally ignored totally
00:32:38.560 and it was terrible hard to
00:32:40.600 believe actually in 2023 a
00:32:43.280 16 year old high school
00:32:44.560 cheerleader named
00:32:45.540 lizbeth medina was
00:32:48.900 supposed to perform in
00:32:50.100 her town's christmas parade
00:32:51.640 but she never arrived her
00:32:53.620 mother jacqueline went
00:32:54.800 home to look for her and
00:32:56.920 she found her lying dead in
00:32:58.320 a bathtub bleeding
00:32:59.900 profusely after being
00:33:01.780 stabbed 25 times
00:33:03.940 lizbeth's killer was a
00:33:07.580 previously arrested illegal
00:33:09.060 alien who had broken in
00:33:10.380 and brutally really just
00:33:12.240 brutally extinguished the
00:33:14.940 brightest light in her
00:33:16.240 family's life violently and
00:33:19.660 viciously her heartbroken
00:33:21.920 mother is in the gallery to
00:33:23.820 remind everyone in this
00:33:25.000 chamber exactly why we are
00:33:26.980 deporting illegal alien
00:33:28.400 criminals our country at
00:33:30.380 record numbers and we're
00:33:31.920 getting them the hell out of
00:33:33.640 here fast we don't want
00:33:35.080 how how how do you not feel
00:33:45.520 that how do you not stand with
00:33:48.620 that they can't they can't
00:33:51.540 because that's their that's
00:33:53.520 their their whole thing they
00:33:57.520 cannot admit that there's a
00:33:58.980 different remember i we talked
00:34:00.620 about this yesterday you have to
00:34:03.120 be able to hold if you're a
00:34:04.760 critical thinker if you're
00:34:06.880 expected to survive in
00:34:09.000 today's world or any world you
00:34:11.000 have to be able to hold two
00:34:12.620 thoughts at once you have to be
00:34:15.400 able to say okay the two things
00:34:18.880 that are true you know i think we
00:34:22.880 should be compassionate to
00:34:24.240 illegal aliens blah blah blah and
00:34:26.020 we should care about that and yada
00:34:28.040 yada yada and and what and we
00:34:34.640 should not have people who are
00:34:36.520 killing our children on the
00:34:38.820 streets we they should that is
00:34:40.700 easy to stand up for this guy
00:34:43.600 came in and killed and then he
00:34:46.140 follows it up with that's why we
00:34:47.760 have to get these violent
00:34:49.700 illegals off our streets right now
00:34:52.800 how do you not stand for that
00:34:55.000 americans don't understand that
00:34:58.940 and you know he was he he used
00:35:02.320 whether he knew it or not he was
00:35:03.960 using martin luther king last night
00:35:06.000 he was using martin luther king he
00:35:09.320 was putting good versus evil side by
00:35:13.180 side he was taking these vulnerable
00:35:16.320 vulnerable people who had experienced
00:35:19.300 something horrific that no american
00:35:21.580 should ever want anyone to go through
00:35:24.100 and he was saying here's what caused
00:35:28.240 it here's the solution
00:35:30.800 who agrees with me and by them
00:35:35.640 sitting martin luther king said when
00:35:37.960 you can put good versus evil on the
00:35:40.660 same screen and you can you can show
00:35:44.540 them to the american people and they
00:35:46.560 can see it side by side they'll pick
00:35:49.140 good every time and i'm not saying
00:35:51.000 that the republicans are good or right
00:35:52.580 about everything else that one is easy
00:35:56.000 and all of these were easy let me take
00:35:59.780 a quick break and i want to talk to
00:36:01.060 sarah and also to jason here in just a
00:36:03.580 second first let me tell you about
00:36:04.480 american giant long before algorithms
00:36:06.820 you know there were calloused hands
00:36:09.280 shaping steel and cotton and timber
00:36:12.560 into something lasting there were men
00:36:14.680 and women who measured twice cut once
00:36:16.540 and took pride in a finished product
00:36:18.540 that could they could be passed down
00:36:20.440 through generations not tossed out quality
00:36:23.000 back then was not a marketing term it
00:36:25.240 was a personal standard and somewhere
00:36:27.420 along the way we started optimizing for
00:36:30.100 speed and scale instead of durability and
00:36:32.460 things got cheaper and faster more
00:36:34.680 disposable and so we shipped many
00:36:36.740 manufacturing jobs overseas because it
00:36:39.520 was cheap american giant decided you know
00:36:42.500 what i think it's time to go in the
00:36:43.540 other direction and they build their
00:36:44.660 clothing here in america they work with
00:36:47.240 american factories and american workers
00:36:49.280 who still believe how something is made
00:36:52.880 actually matters from the fabric to the
00:36:55.640 stitching to the focus on craftsmanship
00:36:57.480 and long-term wear not just what looks
00:37:00.240 good on a website when production is close
00:37:02.820 to home standards aren't abstract they're
00:37:04.980 visible they're accountable because
00:37:06.920 something made with calloused hands tend to
00:37:09.800 last longer than something designed by an

00:37:27.080 now there's a point in almost every weight
00:37:40.060 loss attempt where you start questioning
00:37:41.700 yourself maybe you're eating better than
00:37:43.640 you used to you're trying to move more
00:37:44.980 maybe a big chunk of your day just opened
00:37:46.960 up and you no longer have any excuse
00:37:48.660 whatsoever not to actually go to the gym
00:37:50.560 and yet the scale barely moves for you or
00:37:53.440 it moves for a minute and then it creeps
00:37:55.260 right back it's usually when people assume
00:37:57.820 the problem is discipline but a lot of the
00:37:59.660 times it can be biology when your blood
00:38:02.440 sugar isn't stable your body keeps nudging
00:38:04.940 you to eat to snack to store energy instead
00:38:07.860 of burn it and you can fight that willpower

00:40:28.920 last night from the state of the union let's start with you sarah well mine is i felt that trump
00:40:38.100 from the apprentice was there last night especially yeah especially at the end when he was given the
00:40:45.340 fighter pilot the medal and he had melania do it i was like he wants a heart attack right now he wants
00:40:50.960 those ratings that was pretty impressive yeah he was i gotta tell you he was uh he the one thing
00:40:59.020 that you know ronald reagan was so good he was the great communicator because he was an actor
00:41:03.980 donald trump is not an actor although i would make the case he's a good comedian um he's a tv guy
00:41:10.880 he that came out last night that was the best produced tell that was great television last night
00:41:19.700 one of the things we were talking about in the meeting before the show was that moment that
00:41:24.980 sarah is talking about and and then also presenting the medal of freedom to the warrant officer i don't
00:41:32.920 want to say yeah or else jason will call me out who led the raid on maduro who is still injured
00:41:38.560 in a walker yeah and it's it was such an amazing television moment but i was i wondered
00:41:45.840 has any other president presented medals of freedom and medals of honor during state of
00:41:51.180 the unions before no he's the first to break precedent so rush limbaugh must have been the
00:41:55.960 first one he was in 2020 that was such a memorable moment i mean he has changed the state of the union
00:42:03.100 if anybody else can pull it off he's changed the state of the union they've always brought up let me
00:42:08.120 tell you a story and i've hated it every year i hate it let me tell you a story about little sally
00:42:13.160 muck and fudge who is uh you know has a child with no eyes she was born without eyes and so i've
00:42:18.300 been growing eyes in the basement of the white house because that's the american thing to do and i hate
00:42:23.360 those stories every time i hate those stories because i just feel we got it last night every story was
00:42:31.500 riveting every person was personal it was emotional it i mean he cracked the code on the state of the
00:42:40.920 union last night i think ricky i think you said it when he first came in he's like he should not give
00:42:45.780 another state of the union speech ever again because that was just rerun that one it was great it was
00:42:52.660 great you know who wrote that one they will never never say tell you but if i had to guess
00:42:59.180 hints of steven miller in there it was really really good and you notice he sticked to the prompter
00:43:07.180 he doesn't usually do that he usually is like on the prompter a bit and he'll just read blah blah blah
00:43:13.900 and then he'll riff last night he was the best i've ever seen him on prompter he stuck to the script
00:43:21.080 and his asides were critically important like you people are crazy these people are crazy
00:43:28.960 so powerful so powerful okay your phone calls coming up in just a minute uh and we have a lot
00:43:37.380 more to cover not just on the speech but everything else that's going on in the world coming up
00:43:42.340 back pain has a way of shrinking your world without you even noticing it first you start skipping walks
00:43:50.600 you used to enjoy you're sitting a little stiffer in your chair you're thinking twice about simple
00:43:54.820 things like tying your shoes or reaching for something on a high shelf it's not just discomfort
00:43:59.400 it's all the little adjustments that you avoid that are making it worse that's why i've been so

00:45:53.120 hello america the speech last night state of the union the best the president has ever delivered
00:46:02.060 but the speech wasn't the story the reaction was the story um when you have the democrats they cannot
00:46:08.900 stand for the country they won't clap for safety security they um they cause the inflation that they
00:46:16.880 now criticize they're offering outrage last night he was offering solutions and not just solutions like
00:46:25.360 hey this is what we're going to do in the future he was pointing out here's what i've done in just the
00:46:30.960 last year and the dividing line was stark and simple protect citizens or protect ideology homes for
00:46:39.200 families or homes for hedge funds energy independence or managed decline nation building for our children in our own nation
00:46:49.680 or applause lines for the base that's what it came down to last night and i want to take you through some of the
00:46:56.160 critical sections um because i saw things i've never seen a president do last night i saw some things
00:47:03.040 um that i don't think any other president maybe reagan but he didn't do it uh could have pulled off
00:47:09.440 the the brilliance of the speech last night was to compare and contrast and he did it brilliantly
00:47:18.800 and i'll give you the prime example of that in 60 seconds first let me tell you about rush tax listen
00:47:24.000 to what dr michael had to say about rush tax he said i spent my entire career taking care of other

00:47:33.840 didn't even fully understand i was completely helpless at least that's the way i feel a colleague
00:47:39.040 of mine heard rush tax on this program and he said you should call them i did and i wish i would have done
00:47:45.200 it six months sooner they told me exactly what was happening what my options were and what they were

00:48:35.920 so uh last night i want to start with the um audio which i have never ever seen anything like it
00:48:46.480 um he uh he is calling out where is that audio here okay this cut 13 listen to this where he is
00:49:01.440 just asking people just stand just stand if you believe this listen so tonight i'm inviting every
00:49:09.360 legislature to join with my administration in reaffirming a fundamental principle if you agree with
00:49:16.320 this statement then stand up and show your support the first duty of the american government is to
00:49:24.000 protect american citizens not illegal aliens they're not clapping the democrats none of them are standing
00:49:42.000 none of them and donald trump just motions towards them like look at that look at
00:49:48.960 this is the biggest political mistake i've ever seen a party make
00:49:58.880 in that shame you should be ashamed of yourself not standing up you should be ashamed of yourself
00:50:06.000 that is why i'm also asking you to end deadly sanctuary cities okay do you notice here i've
00:50:14.400 i've never heard the president speak so forcefully as i mean he was almost like this a couple of times
00:50:20.720 where you're like what what is happening it's because he was trying to drown out the shouts from the
00:50:28.400 high schoolers that call themselves congressmen who were shouting you kill american citizens i mean insane
00:50:37.920 stuff that's why he was shouting so loud that's why i'm introducing because he wanted to drown them
00:50:45.920 out i've never seen anything like it from a country that went from joe wilson saying you lie and the whole
00:50:52.560 nation stopped how dare you do that to the president united states i don't care if you disagree with him or
00:50:57.840 not you don't you don't disrespect the president in the state of the union to that i was surprised they
00:51:04.160 didn't start throwing things at him and i mean that sincerely i was shocked they didn't start throwing
00:51:11.040 things at him it was not a good look now do we have the uh do we have the
00:51:22.400 the uh place to where he is uh talking about here let's play cut 12 him calling for the you know for
00:51:33.440 ending the shutdown listen to this cut 12 as we speak democrats in this chamber have cut off all
00:51:41.360 funding for the department of homeland security it's all cut off it's all cut off they have instituted
00:51:48.960 another democrat shutdown the first one costing us two points on gdp two points we lost on gdp which
00:51:57.120 probably made them quite happy actually now they have closed the agency responsible for
00:52:03.360 protecting americans from terrorists and murderers tonight i'm demanding the full and immediate
00:52:09.680 restoration of all funding for the border security homeland security of the united states and also for
00:52:17.200 helping people clean up their snow we have no money because of the democrats and it would be nice
00:52:25.040 we'd love to give your hand to clean it up but you gave no money nobody's getting paid it's a shame
00:52:30.800 so you have to think about it we have in case you didn't know pretty large snowstorm out there
00:52:38.480 you know what he didn't say you want to be petty but accurate but anybody who thought he was
00:52:45.920 petty you know what he didn't say has been defunded secret service secret service dhs and secret service
00:52:56.640 as they continue to try to kill this president they're defunding secret service
00:53:03.600 i it it it to me that took a man much bigger than me because i would have said i've had attempt on my
00:53:14.640 life after attempt on my life and you people are responsible because you keep saying i'm a nazi
00:53:20.880 and you have the gall to cut the budget and stop paying secret service to protect not just me but
00:53:31.360 our our judges and some of you how dare you do that you have a responsibility to protect the constitutional
00:53:42.560 order he didn't say that and he would have had everywhere they just tried to kill him again
00:53:49.680 he'd have every right to do that every right now it's amazing to me how some some people are saying
00:53:57.440 you know well here he didn't he didn't get any of facts right he didn't get any of the facts right what
00:54:05.360 so let's let's look at what he said last night because a lot of them that they say he didn't
00:54:11.280 get right well it was mostly true but we don't have enough evidence yet okay that that doesn't make it
00:54:17.600 false okay the economy i had inherited a nation in crisis with stagnant economy inflation at record levels
00:54:24.560 uh yep yep the economy was was not growing um now bls said it wasn't stagnant um he says inflation is
00:54:40.080 plummeting core inflation down to the lowest level in more than five years in the last three months of
00:54:44.480 2025 it was down to 1.7 percent the uh bls says core cpi uh is at 2.5 to 2.6 year over year
00:54:54.160 uh december and january 26 the lowest in years but not at 1.7 gasoline he said now below 230 dollars
00:55:03.360 a gallon in most states a dollar 99 where i've seen it and a dollar 85 a gallon i saw at a gas station
00:55:10.880 in iowa the uh the press is saying that's false the national average is 292 to 295 well it's sure the
00:55:19.440 hell better than four bucks a gallon isn't it um and that was in february of 2026 no wide spread
00:55:28.720 sub two dollar and 30 cent prices no widespread he said i saw a gas station in iowa and in uh most states
00:55:39.040 it's two dollars and 30 cents that's not sub 230 is it interesting mortgage rates are the lowest in
00:55:47.120 four years and falling fast the annual cost of a typical new mortgage is down almost five thousand
00:55:51.440 dollars since i took office slight exaggeration is what they mark this rates fell in 2025 but not to
00:55:58.320 a four-year low across the board exactly notice that uh exact five thousand dollar savings not
00:56:05.040 independently verified at scale okay uh the stock market is at 53 all-time record highs
00:56:14.720 uh dow jones broke 50 000 four years ahead of schedule mostly true but exaggerated on 53
00:56:21.520 dow jones hit uh 50 000 in early february not at 53 000 that's not what he said he said the stock market
00:56:32.320 broke 53 records
00:56:36.800 did he not he wasn't saying it was at 53 000 um it just broke because he follows it all-time
00:56:43.040 highs jow jones broke 50 000 four years ahead okay even if it was 50 53 in 12 months i've secured
00:56:52.400 commitments for more than 18 trillion dollars new investments fact checkers unverifiable
00:56:58.960 i mean where is he getting that number well no into this quote no independent government or news
00:57:04.160 confirmation of exact 18 trillion figure in commitments okay but what is the figure that you
00:57:11.120 have if it's not 18 trillion what is the figure because when you look at those numbers and you add
00:57:17.840 them up and if they actually come through and this is all you need to say 18 trillion dollars okay
00:57:24.800 that's what he says but that money is trickling in there's maybe been a trillion of it that has come
00:57:30.880 in so far it's over five years we'll watch but if that happens then it's true um american oil production
00:57:39.520 is up by more than 600 000 barrels a day plausible but unconfirmed is the exact figure of 600 000
00:57:49.360 american natural gas production is at an all-time high true more americans are working today than
00:57:55.760 any other time in the history of our country 100 of all jobs created were in the private sector
00:58:00.400 true let me say that one again more americans are working today today than at any time in the history
00:58:08.400 of our country 100 of all jobs created were created in the private sector true why is that important
00:58:21.520 that's important because we're not growing the size of the government all the jobs that have been
00:58:27.680 created in the last you know during the last administration the vast majority of them were
00:58:32.480 all government sector they're not okay we cut the record number of job killing regulations lifted 2.4
00:58:40.480 million americans off of food stamps exaggerated snap rolls declined but exact 2.4 million record not
00:58:49.440 independently verified as largest one in one year okay all right um largest tax cuts in american history
00:58:59.120 no tax on tips no no tax on overtime no tax on social security interest on auto lines auto loans tax
00:59:05.680 deductible if made in america mostly true they say the typical 401k balance is up by at least 30 000
00:59:13.920 dollars fact checkers plausible strong 2025 market gains boosted balances but not exact averages increase
00:59:22.000 varies by source so we found another source that said it was what 23 000 the average is up 23 so
00:59:31.360 we're not sure 23 000 30 000 what difference does that make honestly because there's no verified number so
00:59:40.240 you can pick either and say either one of those is true and probably won't be wrong um or that wrong
00:59:46.960 the point is is that america's 401ks i didn't even think of that i didn't think that for the average
00:59:54.640 american 401k let's just use 23 000 did you know that nobody's checking their 401ks everybody checked
01:00:01.680 their 401ks in 2008 i heard every day do you know how much i've lost in the stock market you know how much
01:00:08.320 my 401k how am i going to retire in the last year if your 401k is up 23 000 or 30 000 that's a big deal
01:00:19.760 in one year the flow of deadly fentanyl across our border is down by a record 56 percent in one year
01:00:28.720 true uh the murder rate saw its single largest decline in recorded history it's the biggest
01:00:34.720 decline lowest number in over 125 years mostly true homicides fell 21 in 2025 across major cities
01:00:43.040 largest single year drop on record national rate likely lowest likely lowest since 1900
01:00:50.320 okay all right members of the somalia community uh have pillaged an estimated 19 billion dollars
01:00:58.240 minnesota california massachusetts maine even worse they say that's exaggerated real fraud cases existed
01:01:08.320 in feeding programs etc but the totals were in the hundreds of millions not 19 billion nationwide
01:01:13.600 i think we have that to play out yet and i don't think i take the press on their number more than i take
01:01:21.600 what the president is saying on the number i'm telling you right now a third of our debt a third of our debt
01:01:33.520 is going to in the end be because of fraud that's how big i think the fraud is in the united states
01:01:41.840 government i think a third of our debt not our deficit our yearly deficit what did he say yesterday
01:01:48.640 um i think he said uh didn't he say half or a third of our debt he said we would wipe out our national
01:01:59.120 deficit if we just eliminate the fraud we will wipe out our national deficit and we will balance the
01:02:05.600 books i think that is absolutely true absolutely true crime in dc is now at the lowest level ever
01:02:12.240 recorded and murders in dc this january were down close to 100 percent uh fact checked exaggerated
01:02:18.640 homicides homicides homicides are down sharply 67 percent year to date early 2026 versus prior january 2026
01:02:27.280 very low only one to two cases not almost no crime or exactly 100 percent that that's how they
01:02:36.080 not almost no crime or exactly 100 okay all right well we get it the point is is that when he said that
01:02:46.560 and he said crime is down dramatically we're at the lowest crime in over a hundred years
01:02:53.440 the murder rate is down the democrats didn't applaud
01:03:00.560 then we get to health care and i want to talk about that next first let me tell you about american
01:03:03.920 financing high interest debt has a way of turning your biggest asset into your biggest pressure point
01:03:08.800 your home is supposed to be a source of stability a place where you build equity a foundation for your
01:03:13.120 family but when credit card balances and other high interest that starts stacking up that monthly
01:03:18.480 mortgage payment can feel less like security and more like a tightrope you're making the payments
01:03:23.200 but a huge portion is going to interest you're working hard but it feels like you're running in
01:03:27.680 place for many homeowners there may be another way to structure it american financing works with you to
01:03:32.720 review your current loan and see whether consolidating high interest debt into a lower rate mortgage

01:04:44.640 agreement we now pay the lowest price anywhere in the world trump rx.gov then he told the katherine
01:04:51.440 rayner story ivf do you remember what ricky what was it that they said he was going to do with ivf
01:04:58.720 during the election do you remember democrats or republicans democrats i can't remember do i fail
01:05:05.680 this test no i i just remember because i thought it was lunacy they said he's going to stop all ivf
01:05:12.880 treatments he's going to ban it he's going to ban ivf what did he do he lowered the car and he said he
01:05:19.280 was going to do this and the media and everybody else twisted everything he was to say and saying
01:05:23.600 he's talking about banning ivf he had katherine uh rayner there last night woman who has been taking
01:05:31.440 ivf treatments four thousand dollars a treatment she just bought her treatment for under five hundred
01:05:39.840 dollars now you would think that anybody who cares about the country cares about the cost of living cares
01:05:46.320 about the average person and health care costs you would be thrilled with that as he said these
01:05:53.440 guys have been saying they're going to fix it forever they weren't interested in fixing it they
01:05:57.600 just grew the size of the corruption they weren't fixing it i fixed it and they would not go you know
01:06:05.360 what i got to give him on that one i got to give him that one that's fixed going from five thousand
01:06:10.240 dollars for ivf to 500 especially when i said he was going to stop all ivf treatments i gotta admit i
01:06:18.000 was wrong on that one americans saw a very stark contrast last night and uh it i've never seen anything
01:06:26.160 like it one side just is hateful dark doesn't seem to love america doesn't seem to even like america
01:06:35.840 and the other side's offering solutions and doing it all right let me tell you about the international
01:06:40.640 fellowship history has shown what happens when the world looks away bad things happen and they don't
01:06:46.640 happen all at once they happen gradually words turn into threats threats turn into actions and too often
01:06:52.240 the people who should have spoken up convince themselves that's not really my fight the jewish
01:06:57.680 people know that story better than anyone else and in a time when anti-semitism is rising again around
01:07:02.960 the world when hate isn't just whispered but shouted this is not a moment for silence or shrugs
01:07:08.640 standing with israel and with the jewish community is not about politics it's about refusing to repeat
01:07:14.960 the mistakes of the past it's about recognizing the seeds that were planted that got us to the holocaust
01:07:20.800 the first time and saying not this time the international fellowship of christians and jews provides shelter
01:07:27.760 food security critical aid to vulnerable jewish families including holocaust survivors and those
01:07:33.440 living under constant threat when history tests us it usually doesn't announce itself it simply asks
01:07:39.440 whether we'll look away or stand up learn how you can bless israel and be blessed in return

01:08:13.200 so last night at the state of the union uh the uh the president celebrated
01:08:19.040 the fentanyl decline and the murder decline listen cut seven
01:08:23.760 the flow of deadly fentanyl across our border is down by a record 56 percent in one year
01:08:45.360 and last year the murder rate saw its single largest decline in recorded history this is the biggest
01:08:52.400 decline think of it in recorded history the lowest number in over 125 years year 1900
01:09:03.280 so he goes on to say you know the problem is is in then some of these cities some of these states
01:09:08.480 they're just releasing these people and we're having to do it all over again a great example of this is in
01:09:14.800 happening in sacramento county we have the sheriff jim cooper on with us i saw this press conference with the
01:09:20.800 sheriff the other day where they have just california has just released this this this monster who i believe
01:09:28.800 got three life sentences three um the uh sheriff has said this is the monster that parents fear most a man
01:09:40.800 who lured kids as young as three with candy and toys then kidnapped and horribly horrifically
01:09:47.280 assaulted them yet the parole board just reaffirmed his suitability for release after serving only 27
01:09:54.880 years sheriff how is this happening it is insane when in california has to amend a law that allows these
01:10:04.240 predators early early release the majority of states excute heinous crimes like this such as murder and
01:10:11.600 child molest this program was meant for those who no longer pose a risk obviously mr funston does
01:10:21.440 so um why are they giving them early release because they're elderly but isn't that didn't they pass
01:10:28.880 this law and say elderly is now 50 and that's so ironic think about this to retire with social security
01:10:35.920 at 62 people work well into their 60s and 70s and that's the big issue and where's the moral compass
01:10:42.480 on this with the board of prison terms they read the report it was eight kids seven girls and one boy
01:10:49.040 the three-year-old victim who testified at my hearing uh took her from in front of her aunt's house took
01:10:55.280 her to his home bathed her molested her threatened to kill her with a knife if she told anyone
01:11:01.760 him he had toys barbie dolls and then dropped her off and told her again don't tell anyone i'll kill
01:11:09.200 you three years old he's about to go free another seven-year-old girl offered her candy in his car
01:11:18.400 and she went for it he pulled her in drove her molested her beat her gave her a bloody lip and then
01:11:26.000 pushed her out of the car 50 miles away from her house so when i'm reading these reports over this
01:11:32.720 weekend and i'm reading all all eight reports and i'm wondering how could anybody rationalize that this
01:11:39.040 person deserves to get out early she's not illing she's not in bad physical health uh we have a broken
01:11:46.080 system that needs to be fixed but they keep making it worse i mean it's not it's not like it's a broken fix
01:11:56.400 system that nobody will will fix their fixes are are seemingly going towards the the criminals and
01:12:05.600 not the victims well it's been that way here and that's that's the unfortunate part about it um
01:12:11.680 and we're trying to fight it so hopefully with your help and others uh making this known um they
01:12:17.280 will introduce a bill this year there's several bills introduced right now to change this law it's
01:12:22.240 got to change and like i said going back and reading those reports 30 years ago um what those
01:12:28.480 kids went through they were very resilient and they gave detailed descriptions and the four-year-old boy
01:12:34.640 picked funston out in a photo lineup four years old imagine the horrors he went through and to have
01:12:40.320 the resilience to pick that photo out says a lot about those kids and we have to make sure we protect them
01:12:47.200 and other kids sheriff if there's anything we can do if we can talk to you know the parents or the
01:12:54.880 survivors now that they're older um and help you with your campaign to get this changed you just
01:13:00.720 please let us know well i'll do anything to help you this is this is an abomination and i honestly
01:13:05.760 you know i feel for the the victims and the families because i don't know how you can think that this is
01:13:12.640 justice um but i also what came to mind immediately was you guys how how do cops and and deputies and
01:13:24.880 sheriffs handle doing all of this work to gather all of the evidence get this guy arrested
01:13:33.360 get it get enough information for the prosecution the prosecution brings it to a trial in california
01:13:41.120 which is hard they give him three life sentences and then they let him out i mean isn't it incredibly
01:13:49.440 frustrating for you guys do you ever look and go what why are we even doing this what what difference
01:13:54.240 it's very it's very frustrating when they make our job harder and the job of the perpetrator a much
01:14:01.600 easier to do that and that's what's troubling and it really has to change with this and really people
01:14:07.040 have to stand up and make their voices known but but i still go back to when you read the reports in
01:14:13.200 the board a parole hearing they read the exact reports i read how do you reconcile that he's a
01:14:19.120 changed individual he has remorse now of course you can have remorse you've been in jail you want to get
01:14:23.520 out how do you change that and that's what disturbed me a group of unelected individuals
01:14:29.920 made this decision consciously to choose him over the victims and that pisses me off it it is happening
01:14:39.440 all over the country and mainly in blue states where this is happening where it seems like the the
01:14:46.640 criminals the abusers are the ones that are are getting the brakes and never never anybody who is the
01:14:54.720 victim uh and you know and and all from people who claim to be for justice you know where we're
01:15:01.920 shouting for justice where's the justice in this one well we shouldn't be fighting for justice for
01:15:06.960 children children should be protected and multiple criteria used in which this board deem this monster
01:15:13.840 no longer a risk protecting truth is not rhetoric it is coming no that he he's remorseful he had a bad
01:15:21.120 childhood give me a break give me a break something like this and this is 30 years ago glenn so there
01:15:29.840 was no internet no phone really he was learning with candy the monster hey don't talk to strangers
01:15:35.040 don't take candy don't get in the car imagine he's out now with cell phones the apps on games it's
01:15:43.840 much easier to contact children and you see law enforcement nationwide doing investigations where
01:15:49.120 predators try and lure kids yeah but he's elderly so you know we've never had a case of a grandfather
01:15:57.760 molesting children what a bunch of bull crap that is yeah we have a lot of those and i'm 60 i know
01:16:05.360 he's 64 he's in he's in good shape so so like i said it's a get out of jail free card and that's what it
01:16:12.640 is and your listeners should be very angry well sheriff thank you for talking to us about this
01:16:20.400 just tell us what we can do what can the average listener do can they get involved can they help you in
01:16:25.200 in any way hanging off the top of your head no please make your voice known let your your
01:16:30.960 legislators know that you want this bill passed and please pray for the victims and what is the bill
01:16:37.920 that you're pushing uh there are actually several bills in the legislature right now but it's going
01:16:43.600 to be a battle because some folks don't want anybody held accountable
01:16:47.760 okay let's just say i don't understand that but there's so much i don't understand about today
01:16:57.680 um it doesn't yeah it does it defies common sense it does sheriff thank you for everything you guys do
01:17:05.200 thank you all your deputies and everybody you stay safe thank you thank you lynn appreciate you yeah
01:17:10.720 can we see if we can get those victims yeah i was just actually messaging the team to say we need
01:17:18.560 to get the bills that he's referencing up at glennbeck.com so the listeners that you do have
01:17:23.200 in california can help make a difference and those outside can uh you know still light up some phone
01:17:27.440 lines but you want to talk to some of the victims i want to talk to the victims because i think
01:17:31.440 you know you you it's one thing to it's one thing to read about it no there were some victims it's
01:17:37.440 another to actually hear from the victims and see what their life is like today and what that means
01:17:44.240 to them letting somebody out you know the justice the insiders want is millstone treatment
01:17:52.400 well you know if there is any if there is any reason for millstone it is for child molesting it it
01:17:59.040 absolutely is i mean that that just goes on and on and on and on generationally
01:18:07.440 it is such a horrific thing and i speak from experience coming from a family who uh
01:18:17.360 i had a grandfather who was scary as hell one grandfather was magic and santa the other
01:18:24.080 grandfather was scary as hell um and uh and he was one of those guys and nothing was ever done and
01:18:35.440 you know it's back in the 60s and early 70s everybody just kind of looked the other way
01:18:40.720 uh and um and it was all in family and just bad just really really bad i have zero sympathy for those
01:18:50.000 guys you know because show me how you're going to get better show me how do you prove you're not going
01:18:56.160 to molest another child i'm sorry you cross that line once you lose the right to ever be trusted with
01:19:05.440 that line ever again period because there is no test that shows oh you're you're free and clear of
01:19:12.640 that you're cancer free you're molestation free it doesn't happen you do not get the chance to be around
01:19:21.360 children ever again period i am so sick and tired this is this is what happened at the state of the
01:19:29.440 union last night this is the difference donald trump was saying do is the job of the government to
01:19:37.440 protect the american citizen or is it to protect the illegal alien when he said stand up if you agree
01:19:46.560 that the job of the government is to protect the american citizen first not the illegal citizen you
01:19:54.480 could not have you couldn't have had a bigger contrast no one on the democratic side stood up
01:20:03.360 we're talking about such bright lines right now when he was talking about the little girl that was
01:20:10.640 stabbed 27 times by an illegal alien and that's the kind of people we need off the streets and they would
01:20:18.560 not applaud how do you not applaud that how do you not stand up for that who are you representing
01:20:30.320 when you say you're for justice justice for whom
01:20:33.680 for whom the the molest the molestation guy in california the person that got in had absolutely
01:20:47.280 no right to be driving an 18 wheeler but it was your state because you have compassion you're looking for
01:20:55.440 justice you put a guy behind the wheel that couldn't speak a word of english and he almost kills a little
01:21:02.880 girl did you see her kiss her father last i'm gonna cry just thinking about it
01:21:09.920 the way she moved you could tell she'll never be the same and the way she kissed
01:21:19.200 her father how do you not have you don't have a heart you don't have a heart
01:21:26.880 democrats i i really don't care if you disagree with me on policies i don't care if you disagree
01:21:35.360 with me on tax policies and everything else but we're not talking about that stuff anymore we're
01:21:40.960 talking about good versus evil we're talking about protection of monsters
01:21:48.400 dennis brager said to me the other day this podcast that's out it'll be it's out for torch
01:21:58.320 insiders right now um and it'll be available everywhere on youtube and everything on saturday
01:22:03.120 and it's so worth watching but he said you know i had this woman come to me and she said i you know
01:22:10.640 you were against the death penalty and i've always disagreed with you dennis and she said but i'm not
01:22:15.600 i'm for it now and he said what changed your mind she said my brother was killed and i want the death
01:22:20.480 penalty and he said that's not the reason to be for the death penalty he's like it's not when it happens
01:22:27.840 to you it doesn't mean as much when you change your mind because it just happened to you
01:22:33.600 you you have to see the pain in others and it's as if the democrats just cannot see the pain
01:22:45.760 in the mothers all of those mothers that were there last night all of them that were crying that were
01:22:53.440 wounded because their precious child had been killed or wounded by an animal
01:23:00.160 and it's as if they just cannot relate to that pain but i guarantee if it happened to them oh they
01:23:09.280 would want that person to pay
01:23:14.960 more in a minute
01:23:18.320 you got to live your life strategically in order to succeed you know that if you're living with pain
01:23:24.320 that's slowing down what's the best thing you can do strategically we'll get out of pain
01:23:30.160 of course pain isn't just physical it affects your focus your energy your patience it changes how you
01:23:35.840 move through the day how you show up at work how you engage with your family you know if you're

01:24:39.600 remember irena zarutska she was the girl on the train uh came from ukraine her mother was at the state of
01:24:46.240 the union last night the democrats couldn't even stand for her as she is crying and weeping you
01:24:50.880 couldn't even stand with her and in north carolina that guy had been arrested 14 times but his mental
01:24:57.280 health took priority over the health of the community we're living in an insane time insane
01:25:04.160 times when you can rape children mutilate children you can stab people in the streets you can set them on
01:25:11.440 fire you can do anything anything and the democrats will stand with that person over the victim and
01:25:19.760 still cry that they are the ones for justice makes no sense and america's on to it
01:25:26.960 there's that moment when you're passing a tree line or a parked vehicle or a dimly lit corner and you
01:25:32.320 you feel like is there somebody that's behind there this is where the burner launcher comes in it's a
01:25:37.280 non-firearm self-defense option the fire's powerful tear gas okay designed to disrupt a threat and
01:25:43.040 create distance without using lethal force somebody steps out from behind that tree line boom you hit
01:25:47.200 them with that you're fine gives you an option you prefer something smaller more discreet for evening
01:25:52.240 walks or daily carry the burner compact launcher is the same non-lethal protection in a lighter easier
01:25:58.000 to carry profile it's what i carry the goal is not to expect trouble it's to walk a little more

01:27:10.080 last night at state of the union the president honored a lot of people including uh charlie
01:27:19.360 kirk's wife and i don't know if this is just me but every time i see her and somebody is honoring or
01:27:28.320 whatever they'll say something like and three months ago her husband was killed last night and
01:27:35.760 five months ago her husband was killed and every time i think five it's only been five months
01:27:45.040 five months like like time has no meaning to me anymore it's the weirdest thing i don't know if
01:27:52.080 you're like that but that seems like a lifetime ago it seems honestly like two years ago that happened
01:27:57.920 doesn't it is it just me five months now i tell you that because i want to give you perspective
01:28:05.680 on something i oh i am going there uh the the bride of charlie kirk in 60 seconds first let me tell you
01:28:17.200 about uh rough greens processed food is convenient the cheeseburger and fries that you're gonna eat on
01:28:24.000 the way home from work today might be delicious but let's be honest it it will be delicious but not
01:28:31.280 good for you you know what i'm saying dogs really get the raw end of the deal because their food is
01:28:36.160 processed and i don't even think it tastes good i mean uno hated it we had to hand feed him
01:28:42.400 at least with us we get flavored with our bad decisions your dog gets a scoop of dry
01:28:46.720 overbaked pellets that's been sitting in a bag for months the problem isn't just taste it's the nutrition
01:28:52.160 that's why they're out eating grass which has got to be worse the heat processing strips everything
01:28:57.120 away all the natural benefits your dog were designed to run on their bodies are not getting
01:29:01.840 what they need you see it the way they act the way they present themselves or coat their eyes everything
01:29:06.880 else this is a supplement rough greens that you sprinkle on top of your dog's current food probiotics
01:29:13.680 omegas vitamins minerals digestive enzymes the stuff that's alive put back into the food again

01:29:44.960 i have a lot to talk about today and i really really want to get to the somali thing and i really
01:29:50.000 want to get to ilan omar and really uh what's her name talib um
01:29:59.680 but there's something else that i'm not blind to and everybody is forcing everybody to get into this
01:30:10.160 fight and i'm not getting into the fight i'm just not going to do it and here's why
01:30:15.680 i have a policy on school shooters and i don't always hold to it but i try i don't want to mention
01:30:24.800 the name of school shooters because that's what they want that's what they thrive on is attention
01:30:32.320 to whatever it is they're wanting to talk about i'm not going to give it to them because i know that's
01:30:38.720 what they want but i do from time to time feel i should say something um
01:30:48.720 and not about the personalities but about principles if you've listened to this show
01:30:53.680 when we started you know the tea party started and that was all about politics and i said
01:30:57.840 the 912 project is not about politics it's about principles values and principles that's what this show
01:31:03.600 is if you and i'm not talking about you those who say you know glenn beck hasn't spoken out about
01:31:11.040 this and he's got to speak out about it go to hell who are you to tell me what i have to do
01:31:16.880 second thing you don't think if you don't know where i stand on issues especially when it is
01:31:23.760 regarding jews you don't know by now you've never listened to this show okay you've never listened to this show
01:31:30.320 um and if you think that you you are more outraged than i am have your children been dragged into it
01:31:43.520 have your children uh been questioned like why were they there you know he loves the jews and they were
01:31:49.760 suspiciously close to him when he died were your children brought into it because mine were for me it's
01:31:54.800 personal but that's no that's no business of yours or anybody else that's for me and my wife and my
01:32:02.000 family i want to talk to you about principles so let's let me lay out a couple of principles here
01:32:11.680 i've lived my life since i was 13 years old behind a microphone okay and i have been uh successful and a
01:32:23.280 failure and successful and failed and successful again okay i've lived long enough to see what fame
01:32:30.240 can do to me and to others and it's not the applause that's harmless on the surface not the money because
01:32:38.480 that's just paper on the surface fame is battery acid for the soul i've said that for a long time but
01:32:46.960 i want to go into this principle a bit fame burns slowly it doesn't scar all at once it corrodes you
01:32:54.400 from the inside it corrodes your identity if you don't know who you are before the spotlight hits you
01:33:01.600 that bright garish spotlight that spotlight will then tell you who you are and it will lie to you every
01:33:10.640 step of the way this is an important principle for you to understand because the spotlight is on all of
01:33:18.960 us my when i got into this i had to work to build an audience now members of my audience have an audience
01:33:27.680 okay you can have an audience this applies to all of us in this age of social media being the one
01:33:35.680 one is very dangerous and when i say the one the one that's trending the one that it's exposing the
01:33:43.040 one that is feared the one that's being debated about the one that is changing minds and hearts
01:33:49.120 the one whatever it is it's intoxicating and it feels like purpose it feels like destiny it feels like
01:33:58.880 righteousness yeah but it's a drug and it's interesting because you are both the user and the dealer
01:34:10.720 because media social media or mainstream media it's not you you are using the drug and it's lying to
01:34:17.520 you but you're also dealing the drug because you might have hit something that was honest but then
01:34:26.880 if things start to slide at all you have to find out what that next honest thing is that will take
01:34:33.760 you to the next level and that's really hard you have to be able to walk away from all of it you have
01:34:42.800 to be able to say it's not that important to me you have to be how many times have i offended this
01:34:50.480 audience how many times have you probably listened to the show and went what the hell is wrong with you
01:34:55.280 why would you say that do you not know who the audience is yeah i do i do and there have been
01:35:01.440 times when i've almost driven you away because i felt well a couple of times because i was arrogant
01:35:08.320 and i thought i knew better than you that was a huge mistake that's my fault that's stupidity
01:35:14.160 but other times like for instance when i printed um addicted to outrage thank you i can barely remember
01:35:21.520 because it sold like four books when i published addicted to outrage i knew it wouldn't do well i
01:35:28.000 knew it wouldn't do well but it was important for me to talk about what outrage can do to you
01:35:36.240 it was important for me to say you know what i've made mistakes and i've learned from it for me
01:35:41.920 but when you are when you're addicted to that high you addict others to that high as well you got to
01:35:52.400 keep the audience high which means you have to push harder you have to dig deeper you have to reveal
01:35:57.520 something darker something more shocking than what i told you yesterday something even more forbidden
01:36:03.360 because yesterday's outrage isn't a big enough drug that's what got me high yesterday it won't get me high
01:36:10.560 today today and sometimes that pursuit uncovers real corruption sometimes it does serve justice
01:36:18.960 but sometimes if we're honest it becomes escalation for the sake of escalation not because truth demands
01:36:26.560 it but because the machine demands it and once you walk down that road it's stopping walking down the
01:36:34.960 road is almost impossible okay you have no idea when i left fox it screwed with me for four years
01:36:43.520 hard it is so hard to walk away so hard roger rails told me you're not walking away nobody ever does
01:36:52.160 when he said that i realized oh my gosh i really now have to walk away because he's right nobody does
01:36:57.600 but when you walk away from just the outrage part not the fame just the outrage part i guarantee you
01:37:05.280 you're going to be accused of selling out if you show restraint you've been compromised if you choose
01:37:11.760 mercy you're protecting evil and it's the very crowd that lifted you up that will turn on you the moment you
01:37:19.920 refuse to go further one of the saddest things for me is you've listened to me for 25 or 30 years and
01:37:27.920 i can say one thing and all of a sudden you'll say you're a traitor and it's like what really is that
01:37:36.480 how shallow our relationship is
01:37:38.640 this is principle and here's the principle that i think we have to defend
01:37:50.240 and it goes right to the the bride of charlie kirk can we leave the grieving to their grief
01:38:00.640 you may not like somebody you may not trust somebody you might disagree with them you might
01:38:06.880 believe they're wrong about everything but grief is sacred ground and it's not battleground for
01:38:15.840 speculation if someone dies and you believe a crime occurred there's a process to that there are
01:38:23.760 investigators there are courts if you have evidence give it to the authorities if you have resources
01:38:29.280 quietly fund the pursuit of facts you don't conduct a trial through thumbnails and trailers
01:38:36.880 let me explain it this way
01:38:42.560 because i'm a former alcoholic dj let's say a small town family loses their father in an accident
01:38:50.880 suspicious however the town is divided rumors are starting to swirl and one local radio host like
01:38:59.040 me begins asking questions not with evidence but with feelings i don't know i feel and they're very
01:39:05.840 very guarded and careful they'll hint they'll imply they will build the audience on suspicion but
01:39:13.040 they'll never truly accuse because i'm gonna pay for that one in a court of law but i have this feeling
01:39:21.600 what happens soon the widow can't buy groceries without whispers every time she goes into the store
01:39:26.320 the children hear theories about their mom at school five months later nothing has been proven
01:39:33.520 but the damage is permanent and even if later the host says you know i was just asking questions the
01:39:40.960 community is fractured that damage is permanent that's the principle at stake free speech matters deeply i will
01:39:50.800 defend someone's right to say the things i will defend their right to say the despicable things
01:39:57.600 they've said about my children and me because they have a right to say it and the moment we start
01:40:03.760 silencing people that we disagree with we lose we lose our freedom we lose the republic but free speech is
01:40:11.120 not the same as moral obligation and responsibility free speech comes with responsibility and the first
01:40:18.640 amendment protects your right to speak it does not compel you to speak it doesn't sanctify escalation
01:40:28.880 it does not require you to monetize suspicion because there's a difference between investigation
01:40:36.240 and insinuation between courage and compulsion between truth seeking and audience feeding
01:40:45.200 and fame if you're not careful convinces you that every instinct must be broadcast i suffer with this
01:40:53.440 so badly i don't know i have this feeling i should say that no not everything you think not every suspicion
01:41:02.000 needs to be shared
01:41:06.800 not every silence is weakness sometimes it's strength sometimes restraint is the highest form of strength
01:41:17.200 we should be rallying around principles that make us more human not more viral decency process
01:41:25.280 presumption of innocence respect for grief it's been five months put yourself if this society can no longer
01:41:35.440 put itself in another man's shoes and see what those five months must be like and you were dog piling in the
01:41:44.880 first three weeks we're a lost society
01:41:52.080 once we normalize turning mourning into content none of us are safe from being content ourselves
01:42:01.120 the culture that rewards behavior like this
01:42:05.920 isn't just influencers it's us because we click we share we debate we fuel the machine we demand
01:42:14.400 people get involved and that demand creates supply
01:42:21.440 so instead of saying what the hell happened to fill in the blank of the influencer
01:42:28.160 what the hell has happened to the right or to the left maybe the question is what is happening to us
01:42:33.040 if we don't anchor ourselves in who we are and my opinion shouldn't matter more than your opinion
01:42:44.800 glenn's got to speak out on this because his opinion my opinion is no more important than your opinion
01:42:51.040 if you are waiting for me to endorse your opinion you're lost don't have power there's power in you
01:43:03.120 but you got to know these things before the likes before the numbers before the praise
01:43:08.960 or all of us are going to be swept by swept away by whatever gets the most reaction
01:43:13.360 truth requires patience justice requires evidence grief requires space these are not partisan values
01:43:24.560 these are civilization values if you lose the civilizational values it doesn't matter who wins the argument
01:43:33.280 let me switch gears and talk about the other one there's three of them i'm only going to talk about two of them
01:43:45.760 i do the other one next first
01:43:49.920 let me tell you about real estate agents i trust.com the difference between a good offer and a great offer
01:43:56.240 is usually negotiation anyone can submit a number on a house that's the easy part the hard part is knowing
01:44:01.280 when to push when to hold back how to structure the term so it actually protects you price is just one
01:44:06.960 line on the contract there's closing costs inspection contingencies repair credits timing possession in
01:44:13.600 a competitive market a strong negotiation can mean the difference between overpaying and walking away with

01:46:10.960 i don't even know if they all saw that
01:46:15.760 but there is a direct tie there but let me make another tie
01:46:23.200 what did they all have in common last night
01:46:25.600 what did everyone who was brought up
01:46:29.840 and he told a story of what did they all have in common that the democrats missed
01:46:46.640 the awakening of empathy
01:46:48.800 they all had stories that required empathy they all had stories that
01:47:01.200 i mean if you didn't if you weren't touched by at least one of those stories last night
01:47:06.640 i i i don't know what i don't know how you do it but they all were to awaken empathy in you
01:47:18.800 and there is a group of people in washington that are so dead inside that they cannot recognize that
01:47:26.960 because politics and ideology is more important than the humans

01:49:11.600 politics help us light the torch today at glennbeck.com torch
01:49:28.320 so we were talking uh just a minute ago um about principles over people and i said you know the
01:49:40.560 reason why i don't want to you know talk about people it sometimes there's a few few people that you
01:49:47.680 know supposedly you know are in our camp and i don't agree with them and you know there's lots of
01:49:52.960 people i don't agree with um some of the some of the people i really vehemently disagree with um but
01:50:00.720 it's their right to say it and i think it's you know despicable but it's their right and you know
01:50:08.000 i'm not going to change their mind and they're not going to change my mind um and i just would
01:50:14.560 suggest that we all use principles to be able to see the truth and we'll come to different conclusions
01:50:21.760 whatever but i also think that there are those who um i don't judge people for what they say
01:50:29.440 uh or their actions because i don't know them you know i said to you yesterday be careful of judging
01:50:35.360 people i told you a story personally of of how people judge me and they had no idea what was going
01:50:39.840 on in my life at the time so i don't want to get into people over principles because i have no idea
01:50:46.400 what's going on in their life uh and and and you know well i can't say you know these people were
01:50:55.120 good friends of mine i knew them i know them and i don't understand what's happening you know now
01:51:02.640 there's others that are not friends of mine um that i've never known and um you know i uh
01:51:09.200 uh and i want to talk about that because there are those who go awry um there are those who have
01:51:16.560 something going on in their life where they got lost because i've done that um and then there there's
01:51:22.560 there's others that got lost by fame or fortune and they haven't figured that out yet and then
01:51:27.920 there's the carnival barkers okay the loudest man in the room the one who intentionally shocks you
01:51:34.960 the one who says things decent people won't say not because it's brave but because it's shocking
01:51:42.800 this week christopher rufo looked deeply into one of those figures i'm not going to give you a name
01:51:49.360 because this guy i kind of well i'm not even gonna say that i'm not i'm i don't give out the names of
01:51:54.560 people who want me to say their names and if you stay on the surface and all you see is spectacle
01:52:03.200 you see clips you see outrage you see memes you see performance but when you dig and i mean really
01:52:09.760 dig you don't find rebellion what you find is wreckage and this is really important and this
01:52:18.560 is the reason why i really want to make it clear on on this particular individual what you're dealing
01:52:24.640 with you're finding when you look you find men who young men who have blown up their relationships
01:52:33.840 young men who have lost their jobs young men who have made themselves unemployable because they
01:52:40.160 decided to mimic a shock artist um and made that a substitute for building an actual real life okay
01:52:53.600 one of the largest known financial backers uh of this guy transferred 250 dollars 250 000
01:53:01.840 in bitcoin and then took his own life think about that think about that
01:53:10.320 at least two um mass shooters have been fans of this in particular in particular this individual
01:53:19.600 okay and fans of his content that's not politics that's not even activism that is gravity pulling
01:53:27.520 downward downward and here is the pattern that i think we need to all recognize
01:53:35.840 there's a skilled demagogue who understands something very old about human nature
01:53:41.840 if you give a young man a villain a grievance a permission to burn down everything they will mistake that for
01:53:51.360 your strength you just have to drop racial slurs you just have to mock jews you just have to joke about
01:53:58.880 violence against women some people treat that as ideology i don't i don't sickness uh death
01:54:09.600 but more importantly theater it's shock for profit it's the digital version of jerry springer except
01:54:16.320 of broken chairs it's broken futures he creates outrage the outrage creates clicks the clicks create
01:54:24.640 influence and the cost it's not paid by him he's a performer he makes the money
01:54:32.320 that's the part nobody really wants to talk about who actually pays the price because he keeps the
01:54:38.400 platform but they keep the criminal record he keeps the microphone but they lose their marriage or the
01:54:45.760 opportunity to marriage or the opportunity to have children he keeps the donations but they lose their
01:54:51.600 chance at a normal life and here's what's happening beneath all of it it's not a political movement it's not
01:54:59.680 politics requires responsibility it requires persuasion it requires the slow dare i say it adult work
01:55:09.520 of building coalitions and governing this is something else that really the left understands
01:55:15.520 really really really well this is digital nihilism it's selling permanent adolescence to men who are afraid
01:55:23.600 to grow up because they have been they've been told there's nothing for you it's peter pan for the resentful
01:55:33.520 honestly it is you don't have to build anything you don't have to take responsibility the system is rigged
01:55:39.280 stay angry stay aggrieved stay 17 forever we've seen the cycle before history is full of charismatic
01:55:46.880 men who fed on grievance and left nothing but ruins behind them not because they were strong
01:55:54.480 honestly most of them were really weak but they were convinced that they could convince other
01:56:02.000 others that destruction is power
01:56:07.520 there's really nothing rebellious about burning down your own future you know these rebels in portland
01:56:13.280 that are burning down portland nothing glorious in that you're burning down your own future you're
01:56:19.120 burning down your own city same thing in minneapolis it's despicable what's happening there is nothing
01:56:24.720 courageous about becoming unemployable at 28 because you wanted applause in the chat room real rebellion
01:56:34.080 real strength you know what that is doing the hard really hard things building a family having children
01:56:43.600 starting a business serving your country raising children that are better than you
01:56:49.280 my dad said to me once the goal of every father should be to raise a son who is better than he is
01:57:02.720 and in the hopes that he will figure it out maybe even 10 minutes sooner than the father did
01:57:12.800 i've thought about that every day with my children
01:57:22.640 did i do enough to have my kids want to be a better man or a better person than me
01:57:31.440 that's hard that's adult that's powerful that's what women want to marry
01:57:39.920 but it doesn't trend and that's the quiet tragedy here
01:57:48.400 young men who should be building are trained to sneer
01:57:54.320 men who could lead are being taught to perform outrage energy that could construct and build is
01:58:02.560 being redirected to burn and destroy and the man at the center of it he just moves on to the next
01:58:09.360 controversy
01:58:11.920 but the young man who copies him
01:58:14.560 is going to live with the consequences
01:58:16.800 i mean we all say that we hate that the elites get away with it but look at this look at this
01:58:22.080 those who follow these people they destroy their lives
01:58:28.960 the one who did the destroying he just moves on
01:58:30.960 that's the difference between a provocateur and a leader one harvests attention
01:58:40.640 the other helps others to build a future
01:58:43.840 if you happen to be a young man
01:58:52.320 and you are wondering what life is about life is about
01:58:56.160 being better tomorrow than you are today in one way shape or form anything
01:59:07.040 life is about mastering your emotions life is about being the master of your own life no matter what
01:59:15.680 anybody tells you you know i can always tell really successful people have something in common
01:59:22.400 they've had somebody in their life say you're not going to be able to do that
01:59:26.240 you're never going to be able to do that you'll never
01:59:28.240 make it successful men successful people they say oh yeah and i can guarantee you anytime somebody
01:59:36.560 has said that will never work doesn't mean they were wrong but anytime somebody has said to me that
01:59:43.040 will never work that's a stupid idea you can't do that i've done it
01:59:46.800 i've done it and they've given me the motivation to prove them wrong
01:59:56.800 why are you listening to the people who are saying burn your life down
02:00:00.720 there's nothing worth everything is in front of you we are living at the greatest stage of all mankind
02:00:08.240 we are witnessing miracles every day every single day and you can concentrate on what you don't have
02:00:16.160 you can concentrate on what has been done to you or you can honestly man up
02:00:23.280 and say you know what that was yesterday that's what somebody else wants me to believe about me
02:00:28.160 i know who i am i'm going to do it you can be a frenchman and give up or you can be an american and
02:00:38.880 say i'm going to cross that mountain even though everyone said i can't do it i'm crossing that mountain and
02:00:45.600 i'm going to do it when it's in snow you have to ask yourself do you want clicks or do you want a life
02:00:56.800 do you want followers or do you want friends
02:01:02.960 that you have to answer which is it that you want
02:01:07.120 make that decision
02:01:16.240 and you'll be on the road either to your own destruction or to becoming a very powerful man
02:01:21.840 back in just a minute let me tell you about patriot mobile it's strange how loyal we are to
02:01:26.160 companies that aren't loyal to us at all we stick with them for years we put up with the price increases
02:01:30.480 the dropped calls the automated customer service loops that drive us absolutely nuts
02:01:34.960 and all the while some of those companies are writing checks to causes that run directly against
02:01:39.440 the values that we hold loyalty if it means anything should go both ways i'm loyal to you
02:01:45.040 you're loyal to me it's good for both of us well there is a company that is in the mobile phone
02:01:50.400 business patriot mobile they offer nationwide coverage on the same exact networks but they have
02:01:55.760 competitive pricing u.s based customer service but more than that they they support organizations
02:02:01.440 that defend life religious liberty free speech are veterans you need a phone that's not negotiable
02:02:07.760 what is negotiable is who gets your business and what do they do with your business and your money
02:02:12.960 maybe it's time to be loyal to your values be as loyal to your values as you've been to your phone
02:02:18.640 company because companies notice when customers walk and sometimes the simplest way to send a message is to move

02:03:37.120 to argue and the first time last night we agreed really what did you agree on what i thought too
02:03:46.640 uh she said don't they're not standing up she said they're crazy and then the next line trump said you
02:03:53.520 people are crazy i said see you agree with me it was what she said it was it was amazing
