00:00:30.000 Let me tell you about our sponsor.

00:00:31.020 It's Rough Greens.

00:00:31.900 Caring for your dog can be a lot of work.

00:00:33.740 I mean, it's such a hassle.

00:00:35.720 You know, you got to walk them, feed them, make sure they have water.

00:00:40.620 What a hassle.

00:00:41.640 And what do you get in return?

00:00:43.740 You know, okay, all right, unconditional love.

00:00:47.300 And the dog that just worship you and looks at you in the eye like, I just love you so much no matter what you do.

00:00:54.260 All right, so maybe it's worth it.

00:00:55.640 Anyway, if you're feeding your dog kibble food, there's no real nutrition left in that stuff.

00:01:03.060 It's all cooked out.

00:01:04.000 It's meant to sit on a shelf for up to two years because the government said that it'll be good.

00:01:08.640 Anyway, you need the supplements and everything to go back into it.

00:01:13.480 All the nutrition, all of the probiotics, antioxidants, everything.

00:01:17.420 You sprinkle that on your dog's food.

00:01:19.200 It's called Rough Greens, R-U-F-F-Greens.com.

00:01:22.160 If it's healthy for your dog, it's most likely in Rough Greens.

00:01:40.440 All right, big show.

00:01:41.960 Would you say this is a big show today, Stu, or just an enormous?

00:01:45.400 Oh, yeah, not on this program, but there's a really big show happening someplace.

00:01:53.580 In Branson.

00:01:54.100 Today.

00:01:54.820 Yeah, in Branson.

00:01:56.220 Yeah, thank you.

00:01:56.540 Huge show in Branson.

00:01:57.280 Thank you.

00:02:15.400 It's a new day.

00:02:41.260 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:02:56.360 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:02.840 Hello, America.

00:03:04.280 From behind my cardboard microphone, yes, it is me.

00:03:08.180 With somebody else's hands tied behind my back, we're glad you're here.

00:03:12.600 My name is Glenn Beck, and we have quite a program for you.

00:03:16.200 Wouldn't you say, Stu?

00:03:17.060 Big, big, big, huge.

00:03:18.420 Huge.

00:03:19.120 Enormous.

00:03:20.280 Enormous program coming up for you.

00:03:22.280 Not today, but one of these days, we'll spring that upon you.

00:03:26.000 Today, we'll take about two hours and 15 minutes of entertainment and jam-pack it into a three-hour period.

00:03:33.000 You don't want to miss a second of it.

00:03:34.920 Stand by.

00:03:35.620 Let me tell you about our sponsors.

00:03:37.640 Fourth of July weekend is finally upon us, and it means celebrating freedom.

00:03:41.300 And most important freedom that you have is the one that allows you to protect yourself and your family from all forms of danger.

00:03:47.840 But not all forms of danger require lethal force to deal with every, you know, you're not dealing with it every single time.

00:03:54.640 You know, I carry a gun, and it always bothers me.

00:03:59.100 You know, what will you do?

00:04:01.040 You're holding that gun. 1.00

00:04:01.980 And are you willing to actually pull that out and kill somebody? 0.99

00:04:05.800 Yeah, if they're threatening my life. 0.94

00:04:07.400 But then I always think of the heroes that are, you know, like in a 7-Eleven, and somebody's doing something, and they just take that shot and, you know, bring them down to the ground.

00:04:15.800 And everybody, you know, I don't know if I would ever have the courage to do that, because I'd be so afraid.

00:04:20.320 I'm going to hit the Doritos first, then I'll probably hit an innocent bystander. 0.66

00:04:27.060 Just, anyway, great alternative to this is the Berna Launcher, because it hits tear gas.

00:04:35.280 And so you're firing kinetic rounds and then tear gas, and you can drop somebody from 60 feet away, and it takes them about 45 minutes to recover.

00:04:46.280 Make sure you check the wind before you do that.

00:04:49.480 Berna Launcher, it is so much better than pepper spray or anything else.

00:04:52.920 You can keep it in your glove box.

00:04:54.380 My wife has it in her purse. 0.90

00:04:56.140 You can have the Berna Launcher and stay safe wherever you are without deadly force.

00:05:01.360 It's Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn, 4th of July specials, including 10% off your purchase.

00:05:08.800 It's the Berna Launcher, Berna dot com slash Glenn.

00:05:15.600 Well, I just don't know what to say.

00:05:18.360 I watched the president's speech last night, and everybody coming out and saying,

00:05:21.860 he could go after us.

00:05:24.560 He could just shut us down.

00:05:26.680 Now that the Supreme Court has ruled, Donald Trump, if he is elected,

00:05:30.720 he'll come in and he'll start putting people in jail.

00:05:35.040 I want you to remember that here for just a second.

00:05:37.320 We'll get back to it.

00:05:39.560 Here's what the president had to say last night at a press conference.

00:05:46.720 Scott Knight.

00:05:47.460 The presidency is the most powerful office in the world.

00:05:54.160 It's an office that not only tests your judgment, perhaps even more importantly,

00:05:59.160 it's an office that can test your character.

00:06:01.820 Yes.

00:06:02.120 Because you not only face moments where you need the courage,

00:06:04.640 exercise the full power of the presidency,

00:06:07.560 you also face moments where you need the wisdom

00:06:10.020 to respect the limits of the power of the office of the presidency.

00:06:13.700 Yes.

00:06:14.460 Stop there for a second.

00:06:15.580 So, Stu, what would some of those limits be?

00:06:19.600 Because it's an awesome responsibility to be president of the United States,

00:06:23.560 but you can't just do anything, right?

00:06:27.540 What would some of the limits be? 0.73

00:06:29.420 You couldn't just go out and kill people, right?

00:06:32.980 I don't know.

00:06:33.800 That's not what I've been hearing, Glenn, over the past 24 hours.

00:06:37.300 My understanding is the Supreme Court gave a, like, James Bond license to kill

00:06:44.120 to the president of the United States.

00:06:46.040 No.

00:06:46.780 No.

00:06:47.360 I don't think that's true.

00:06:48.720 But we'll continue to listen.

00:06:49.860 Yeah.

00:06:50.160 Immune, immune, immune, immune.

00:06:51.820 I didn't hear the whole speech, so we'll go on.

00:06:54.180 I was thinking, like, something smaller, like,

00:06:57.260 like maybe you say, hey, you've got student loans.

00:07:03.080 I can't help you with those.

00:07:05.060 That would be the constitutional thing.

00:07:07.320 But the president couldn't just say, I'm going to just, you know,

00:07:11.040 forgive all student loans, right?

00:07:13.300 Yeah, yeah.

00:07:14.460 That means you're thinking of the old-timey America.

00:07:18.220 There was a version of America where the, you know,

00:07:22.120 the head of the executive branch couldn't just spend $500 billion

00:07:26.020 on a whim without Congress.

00:07:27.860 But those days are long gone, Glenn.

00:07:30.420 Okay, but it would go to the Supreme Court.

00:07:32.020 It was wrong.

00:07:32.500 It would go to the Supreme Court, and then they'd tell the president

00:07:34.700 to stop, and he would.

00:07:35.620 Yeah, they'd shoot it down.

00:07:36.420 And, well, no, he would just do it again.

00:07:39.440 Oh.

00:07:39.860 Yeah.

00:07:40.200 Oh, it went to the Supreme Court already.

00:07:41.760 Yeah, and they shot it down.

00:07:42.720 He used to find the Supreme Court.

00:07:43.300 That's weird.

00:07:43.840 Yeah, so then he just did it again.

00:07:46.700 And then, but in a slightly different way, like 1% different,

00:07:50.880 and then sends it up through the courts again.

00:07:52.560 And again, it's going to get rejected again.

00:07:55.420 Huh.

00:07:55.720 But then he'll just do it again.

00:07:58.060 Right.

00:07:58.640 So that's weird.

00:07:59.720 It's an awesome power.

00:08:01.440 And, you know, it shows character, you know,

00:08:04.560 when you restrain yourself from doing those things that you can't do.

00:08:07.960 Anyway, I digress.

00:08:09.400 Back to the president.

00:08:10.840 To respect the limits of the power of the office of the presidency.

00:08:14.880 Limits.

00:08:15.420 This nation was founded on the principle that there are no kings in America.

00:08:19.840 Right.

00:08:20.240 Each, each of us is equal before the law.

00:08:23.600 No one, no one is above the law.

00:08:27.020 Okay, stop for a second.

00:08:27.980 Stop, stop, stop.

00:08:29.040 Stop for just a second here.

00:08:30.660 Stu, are we all equal under the law right now?

00:08:33.380 I mean, is that true?

00:08:35.280 It doesn't seem true.

00:08:36.020 Like, for instance, if you were held in contempt of Congress, right,

00:08:42.120 you'd go to jail, right?

00:08:43.460 Yeah.

00:08:43.740 Like Steve Bannon just went to jail yesterday.

00:08:46.660 Sure.

00:08:46.880 Another Trump advisor who said, no, I can't share that.

00:08:50.360 That's executive privilege.

00:08:51.600 They sent him to jail.

00:08:53.240 Navarro, yeah.

00:08:53.680 But, yeah, but it's, but it's all, it's all equal, right?

00:08:57.460 I mean, let's say somebody was, yeah, not releasing tapes of testimony.

00:09:07.020 And they say, well, that was executive privilege.

00:09:10.360 And they're in contempt of Congress.

00:09:12.520 They go to jail as well, right?

00:09:14.880 No.

00:09:15.040 No, I mean, I don't know what you're talking about specifically,

00:09:18.320 but what you just described does not sound at all like something that you would go to jail for.

00:09:22.360 Let's say that you were the head of the DOJ.

00:09:25.620 Right.

00:09:26.100 And Congress said, you have to produce this information.

00:09:31.160 And then you didn't.

00:09:32.360 Right.

00:09:32.680 You would be in contempt of Congress.

00:09:34.780 Oh, no.

00:09:35.480 No, you don't go to jail?

00:09:36.360 No, no.

00:09:37.300 That doesn't seem like a jailable offense at all.

00:09:39.640 Like, you know, it's like, I can see where you're getting confused here.

00:09:42.160 Like, for example, if you were to, like, riot at a federal building, right?

00:09:53.000 Right.

00:09:53.180 That's something you'd go to jail for.

00:09:55.840 It's wrong.

00:09:56.620 Right.

00:09:56.780 You don't do those things.

00:09:58.480 Right.

00:09:58.800 It's the darkest day.

00:10:00.040 And then there's another separate scenario where, let's say you were to riot at a federal building,

00:10:07.860 you don't go to jail for that.

00:10:10.080 Oh, wait.

00:10:10.400 There was just a federal building.

00:10:11.780 That was the first to jail.

00:10:12.100 If you riot at a federal building, you're going to jail.

00:10:14.500 But if you're just simply rioting at a federal building, you don't go to jail.

00:10:20.540 So is it kind of like, because it's a very subtle difference.

00:10:23.260 It's kind of like when you're praying in front of abortion clinic, you go to jail.

00:10:30.280 But if you burn down an abortion clinic, you don't go to jail.

00:10:35.420 Depends on, are you burning it down because they're not doing enough abortions? 1.00

00:10:39.640 If you burn it down because they're not frequently aborting enough kids, then yes, you do not go to jail.

00:10:45.460 But if you burn it down because you think they're doing too many abortions, then obviously you go to jail.

00:10:50.460 Okay, so if you burn down an abortion clinic, you would go to jail if you disagree with them.

00:10:55.960 But if you burn down the people's business where they were pro-life, you also go to jail.

00:11:06.660 They're pro-life, the owners of the business?

00:11:08.940 Yeah.

00:11:09.040 No, you would not go to jail for that.

00:11:10.960 Why would you go to jail for that?

00:11:12.140 Okay, I just want to make sure that I understand equal justice under the law, that we're all judged exactly the same.

00:11:17.800 Now I think we have it.

00:11:18.600 All right, go ahead with President Biden.

00:11:20.460 Not even the President of the United States.

00:11:23.980 Not even the President.

00:11:24.540 Today's Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed.

00:11:30.920 For all, for all practical purposes, today's decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a President can do.

00:11:39.980 Wow.

00:11:40.440 It's a fundamentally new principle.

00:11:42.860 Yeah.

00:11:43.040 It's a dangerous precedent.

00:11:45.140 Dangerous.

00:11:45.400 Because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law, even including the Supreme Court of the United States.

00:11:52.100 Wow.

00:11:52.660 Stop just a second.

00:11:53.840 That is news, isn't it?

00:11:56.080 I mean, especially to the Supreme Court.

00:11:57.760 That is news that no matter what the President does, even if it breaks the law, you're not going to have to pay a price for it.

00:12:07.720 I didn't know that.

00:12:08.820 I didn't know that.

00:12:09.580 See, what the left is afraid of right now is what they're saying is he's going to silence speech.

00:12:15.460 Donald Trump will silence any dissent.

00:12:18.440 And that's not happening now.

00:12:21.400 Or he would put his former allies, I mean, his former foes in jail.

00:12:31.600 You know, for instance, let's say you're running against a guy who Donald Trump didn't think he could beat.

00:12:36.760 Then he would just make up some charges and then get the guy arrested and then keep him, you know, in the court system until you finally got him into jail.

00:12:47.020 That's what Trump could do.

00:12:48.660 Trump could do that because of yesterday's rulings.

00:12:53.180 So that's pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty frightening.

00:12:55.960 You know, I think if we're really going to go all the way, what should be terrifying is that Donald Trump could just round up a whole group of people because he didn't like them.

00:13:08.260 You know what I mean?

00:13:08.860 Just round them up and then put them like in a concentration camp, kind of like FDR did with the Japanese. 0.94

00:13:17.320 And that wouldn't be illegal.

00:13:19.400 You know, he'd get out of office and he'd never pay the price that FDR had to pay, which was named our best president.

00:13:30.520 Well, yeah, that's over and over again by historians.

00:13:33.060 Yeah.

00:13:33.740 The guys who violate these are always the progressives, always the deep, deep progressives are the ones who violate all these things.

00:13:45.340 Now, when it comes to just killing people or doing something illegal, the Supreme Court case laid out, it must be constitutional.

00:13:57.060 So if the if the president acts in an unconstitutional way, then you can get him.

00:14:06.860 But unless it's unless it's unconstitutional, he can't do it.

00:14:12.260 So it would be unconstitutional to round up the people that disagreed with you.

00:14:17.480 It would be unconstitutional to silence those who oppose you.

00:14:21.560 It would be unconstitutional to go after your opposing political foe and try to put them in jail.

00:14:29.760 All things that Joe Biden is currently doing.

00:14:34.140 Yeah, I mean, it's funny.

00:14:36.320 This ruling is coming from Roberts, who's an institutionalist, right?

00:14:40.480 Like, if anything, we've complained about him a million times because he's so unwilling to shake up things just because, you know, it happens to be the constitutional way.

00:14:51.040 I mean, Obamacare is a great example of that.

00:14:52.840 Like, it's going to shake things up and I don't want to give the impression that we're, you know, too impactful on society.

00:14:58.240 He's always doing these things.

00:14:59.720 And that's, in a way, what this ruling is.

00:15:03.020 What he's saying is, hey, we shouldn't have, I mean, in a way, it's designed specifically to protect Joe Biden.

00:15:10.760 Because everybody knows if there's no immunity, what do you think Donald Trump's going to do when he's president of the United States after what he's just been through?

00:15:17.720 He's going to go in there and find every little thing that he can and go after Joe Biden on it.

00:15:23.180 He promised to do it with Hillary.

00:15:24.500 He didn't do it.

00:15:25.320 He now says he regrets not doing it.

00:15:28.080 And now they've done it to him.

00:15:30.280 So you think he's just going to sit back and be like, you know, let me show you what I'm going to do as president.

00:15:35.040 It's a shoulder shrug.

00:15:36.520 I don't think that's the way that's going to go down.

00:15:38.400 In a way, Roberts is protecting both sides from this back and forth that could easily come.

00:15:44.060 However, what the president has done is not constitutional and he should go to jail, not for the things that he's done in office.

00:15:53.260 I disagree with all of his policies, the whole thing of, you know, of, you know, taking away your student loans and things like that.

00:16:02.500 You know, that's unconstitutional.

00:16:04.140 But I don't think that's something that you go after.

00:16:06.600 However, the business dealings with China.

00:16:10.440 Yeah, I mean, I think that should be prosecuted.

00:16:12.940 At least as far as we know, none of that happened while he was president.

00:16:17.680 So that wouldn't be covered by this at all.

00:16:19.340 But what I think Roberts is doing here is just setting a high bar.

00:16:24.020 Of course, stop it.

00:16:25.200 Yes, you can go after a president for the worst things in the world.

00:16:28.160 However, there's a high bar for you to clear.

00:16:31.100 So don't bother bringing up your BS nonsense every 10 seconds because it's not going to work.

00:16:36.500 That is a that's a beyond the fact that we all knew what he said was true. 0.52

00:16:42.120 Official acts would be you'd be have immunity for like you're not able under the law, Glenn, to kill people.

00:16:51.180 Right. Like you don't just you can't just we like you couldn't send a drone to go start murdering people in other countries.

00:16:58.620 The president with his powers, his commander in chief has powers that we don't have.

00:17:04.360 Right. Like we all know that there is some sort of implied immunity for official acts.

00:17:08.460 So we all knew that we all knew unofficial acts would not be covered here.

00:17:12.620 There's nothing new in this ruling.

00:17:14.460 It was blatantly obvious.

00:17:15.840 Yet they have to do this charade every single time and act. 0.95

00:17:19.240 Oh, gosh, SEAL Team 6 might come and just start being utilized to kill people.

00:17:24.020 How many how many different layers of checks and balances would have to including SEAL Team 6 just going along with this, which they would not be covered to do.

00:17:35.240 They would all get prosecuted.

00:17:36.620 They'd all be put in prison.

00:17:38.380 But like we're supposed to believe that Donald Trump would be completely fine for doing this.

00:17:42.500 It's insanity.

00:17:43.160 All right. Well, let me just let me just end with this.

00:17:46.220 As the president is saying this, two things happened yesterday.

00:17:50.520 Christian pro-life father of 11 is now facing over a decade in prison.

00:17:56.060 He's going to be sentenced today for a peaceful protest in Tennessee.

00:18:01.140 It was a violation of the FACE Act.

00:18:02.680 You know, they were praying in the hallway.

00:18:04.660 What he said yesterday is this, quote, it's real easy for me.

00:18:09.320 I can go and go to battle and go to jail as an individual, and it's not a big loss.

00:18:13.520 The challenge comes when you're leading your family through it, when you're talking to your three-year-old and your 23-year-old and your other family.

00:18:21.240 Vaughn said that he wanted to pray to God, quote,

00:18:24.280 And get up ready to take on the day with whatever circumstances come my way with a humility and a grace and a spirit-led life that represents all of us in our society and represents him and our community around us.

00:18:40.880 How many politicians order their life after truth and justice versus power, greed, negotiation, and negotiating principles? 0.86

00:18:49.460 So here's a guy who said, I believe what I believe.

00:18:52.780 God will be with me.

00:18:53.820 I'm going to go to jail.

00:18:54.980 At the same time, Bannon also went to jail for a contempt of Congress.

00:19:02.680 There are now 15, I believe, 15 people in the Biden administration that have been deemed in contempt of Congress.

00:19:11.100 None of them are being prosecuted.

00:19:14.560 But Donald Trump's people are.

00:19:18.300 But Bannon said this, and I don't like Bannon.

00:19:21.380 I don't agree with Bannon on everything.

00:19:23.420 I think he's a thought leader that I really strongly disagree with many times.

00:19:29.980 But he should not be going to jail.

00:19:33.220 He said, I am proud to go to prison.

00:19:35.780 If this is what it takes to stand up to tyranny, if this is what it takes to stand up to the corrupt criminal DOJ,

00:19:45.760 if this is what it takes to stand up to Nancy Pelosi, if this is what it takes to stand up to Joe Biden, then I am proud to do it.

00:19:56.520 You have people crying that they might go to prison.

00:19:59.980 While they're putting prison people in prison for the things that they have done themselves.

00:20:09.900 Please, Mr. President, don't talk to me about out of control tyranny from the Supreme Court.

00:20:17.120 They've done exactly the opposite.

00:20:19.480 They have protected the presidency while they are dismantling the administrative state.

00:20:25.380 More in just a second.

00:20:26.500 First, I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have an art exhibit coming up.

00:20:32.140 I'm grateful because I meet so many people through that.

00:20:37.140 So many listeners.

00:20:38.040 But also this time, because we're having it at the studios in September 20 and 21st in Dallas, Texas.

00:20:44.280 I'm going to be surrounded by, gosh, I think 50 of some of the greatest artists in America.

00:20:49.700 And they're all painting scenes from American history.

00:20:54.600 It's really a different thing.

00:20:56.260 We'll talk about it later.

00:20:57.080 But anyway, one of the reasons I'm also grateful is because I can paint.

00:21:00.920 I have use of my hands again.

00:21:02.800 I used to not be able to use my hands every day because the pain was unstoppable.

00:21:08.920 100% drug-free daily supplement that I started taking, and I could not believe that it would work.

00:21:16.780 It worked.

00:21:56.420 Station ID.

00:21:59.420 You know, I was just talking about the American narratives in fine art.

00:22:11.980 This is something that I started working on last year and getting together with some of the biggest names and the best artists in the country.

00:22:24.740 I mean, I am taken aback by how people signed on for this when we started inviting people to be a part of it.

00:22:33.900 I thought, we'll never get him.

00:22:35.460 Well, we'll never get him.

00:22:36.420 Oh, my gosh.

00:22:36.900 We got all of them.

00:22:37.740 You can go to AmericanNarrativesInFineArt.com.

00:22:42.340 We're doing this exhibit at the studio.

00:22:45.120 These are artists that we have shared stories from the Mercury Museum.

00:22:49.540 We have shared artifacts and ask them, just take a piece of history and whatever story really speaks to you, take the artifact, paint something, paint the scene, and you're going to be able to see it.

00:23:05.880 And this art show is not being judged by art experts.

00:23:08.460 We want you to judge this.

00:23:10.380 To the person that, the artist that captured the most emotion and inspiration, that will be the winner of the art show.

00:23:20.440 And I want you to just check it out.

00:23:21.960 American Narratives in Fine Art.

00:23:23.660 It's happening September 20th and 21st at my Mercury Studios.

00:23:28.660 I'll be there all weekend.

00:23:30.320 I can't wait to see you.

00:23:32.300 Dallas, Texas, September 20th and 21st.

00:24:56.180 So there is a great article in The Federalist today that I think, it's in our show prep, you should read it.

00:25:18.700 The Federalist did a story, the death of the administration or the administrative state is just the beginning.

00:25:23.840 While the president and everybody else is saying, they're just, they're making it so easy to be a dictator, the Supreme Court is doing the exact opposite.

00:25:34.300 With Chevron deference, they have made it almost impossible for you to be a dictator because you, the government has to answer to the people.

00:25:45.760 And the elected officials are the ones that make the laws, not the administrative state.

00:25:52.100 That is fantastic.

00:25:53.880 And in this article, they talk about how Justice, I think it was Thomas, laid out a really cogent case for dismantling a lot of it.

00:26:06.520 And they think that that's the direction the Supreme Court is going, which would make it less powerful for a dictator.

00:26:13.800 Just wanted to throw that in there.

00:26:16.160 Throw this quick scenario by you.

00:26:17.600 And by the way, Pat Gray or Pat Gray Unleashed is joining us.

00:26:20.340 But Glenn, quick scenario.

00:26:21.960 Let's say you had a real fear that the next president of the United States might be Adolf Hitler.

00:26:28.940 Would you spend a lot of time criticizing the weakening of the executive branch with their agency power?

00:26:40.060 No.

00:26:40.820 No, right?

00:26:42.000 I would say any fence you could put around the administrative arm would be a good thing.

00:26:47.740 Right.

00:26:48.980 And yet they're doing legitimately both of those things.

00:26:51.700 They're like, oh, the Supreme Court is giving is taking away power from the executive and these agencies and these experts.

00:26:59.500 And by the way, we're we're terrified.

00:27:02.320 Hitler's going to come in and put all of his people in these agencies. 0.96

00:27:06.540 Right.

00:27:07.320 So they would have an unquestioned amount of power.

00:27:10.220 That's insane.

00:27:11.320 Right.

00:27:11.620 Wouldn't you want them to be weakened?

00:27:13.380 This works for everyone.

00:27:14.920 No matter who you're afraid of being president, you should want these agencies weakened.

00:27:19.040 And if they hadn't beaten down our logic over the last 20 years, this this stuff 20, 30 years ago, all would have been laughed at. 0.93

00:27:27.540 It's it's just ridiculous.

00:27:29.420 By the way, Jonathan Turley is joining us here in about a half an hour.

00:27:34.400 And would it be weird for me to say I just want to be his friend?

00:27:39.380 Would it be weird?

00:27:40.560 It's going to be weird now.

00:27:42.020 Yeah.

00:27:42.840 You just made it weird.

00:27:44.020 Once in a while.

00:27:45.120 Did I make it weird?

00:27:46.220 OK. 0.97

00:27:46.580 Well, I mean, I really just said I want to be a little pathetic friend phone calls. 0.95

00:27:51.520 You know what I mean? 0.99

00:27:52.340 Well, it is pathetic. 0.98

00:27:53.460 I mean, look at me, you know, but I just want to be in, you know, in his circle of friends. 0.98

00:27:58.100 He's like, hey, I'm kicking around an idea.

00:28:00.120 What do you think of this?

00:28:01.440 And I you know, I don't I don't I don't have to give him any advice or anything.

00:28:05.140 I just be like, ah, that's a good idea.

00:28:07.620 It's a good idea.

00:28:08.920 What?

00:28:09.180 Why?

00:28:09.480 Why?

00:28:09.760 Why would you say that's a good idea, Jonathan?

00:28:12.400 Wait, are you saying that you're going to be his friend to steal his ideas to look smart

00:28:17.600 on the air?

00:28:18.180 Is that what you're trying to do with this?

00:28:19.780 Well, no, a lesser man would do that.

00:28:22.280 Oh, yeah.

00:28:23.980 You just want to be his friend.

00:28:25.940 Yeah, I just want to be his friend.

00:28:27.160 I just want to be his friend.

00:28:28.060 Anyway, there's a couple of stories.

00:28:30.180 He's got a new book out on the death of freedom of speech and why it's an indispensable right.

00:28:35.420 We'll talk to him about that.

00:28:36.600 But also, he wrote an article this week.

00:28:39.360 Supreme Court just downgraded the insurrection to trespassing, which is so good.

00:28:46.160 May I ask, do either of you, have you ever heard of parading before January 6th?

00:28:54.080 Never.

00:28:54.800 Never is a crime.

00:28:56.620 Not milling or parading.

00:28:58.980 It's ever known crimes to me.

00:29:02.120 You know, you're milling around, you know, I've at least heard that.

00:29:05.940 I've never heard, oh, these kids are just out there parading.

00:29:09.360 I milled at a mall, I don't know how many times when I was younger, and I was never arrested

00:29:14.760 for it.

00:29:15.680 Correct.

00:29:16.360 And parading, doesn't parading sound like something like, oh, we got to get him on something?

00:29:22.400 Right.

00:29:22.940 That's exactly what it sounds like.

00:29:24.420 Yeah.

00:29:24.840 I mean, right?

00:29:25.580 It's just parading doesn't even sound like it should be illegal.

00:29:29.700 But it was a brilliant.

00:29:30.240 He had a parade.

00:29:31.020 He was throwing candy out to the kids and marching down the street with a flag.

00:29:35.980 Yeah.

00:29:36.280 That can't be done.

00:29:37.720 What?

00:29:38.080 It's a brilliant decision, though, because even if you did go into the Capitol building,

00:29:43.400 nobody made it to the Senate chamber or the House floor.

00:29:47.520 Nobody got there, right?

00:29:49.420 Well, no, no, no.

00:29:50.000 No, they got there eventually, right?

00:29:51.860 Yeah.

00:29:52.340 Into the House.

00:29:53.460 Not while they were there.

00:29:54.320 But to the House.

00:29:54.980 Right.

00:29:55.200 Not while they were there.

00:29:55.940 Correct.

00:29:57.140 So you have no idea what they were doing there.

00:30:01.360 They could have just been there to see the statues.

00:30:05.200 Well, I don't know.

00:30:06.240 I don't know.

00:30:06.940 Could have.

00:30:07.760 They were there to parade.

00:30:08.900 Well, could have.

00:30:09.100 They might have.

00:30:10.120 I don't think so.

00:30:11.100 By the way.

00:30:11.800 But I mean, we were necessarily stopping an event, right?

00:30:17.620 They're not necessarily trying to stop the event.

00:30:19.940 It seems like you could get them, yeah.

00:30:23.320 If they were, they should have just pulled the fire alarm, because that's not illegal.

00:30:28.700 That's definitely not illegal in the Jamal Bowman clause of the Constitution.

00:30:32.620 Right.

00:30:32.780 But it feels like you could, if you really wanted to slap some wrists of Graham, look,

00:30:37.780 we all know there's a separation here between people who committed violence against police

00:30:41.480 officers and people who just walked in a building.

00:30:43.920 And you can get some of them.

00:30:44.820 I don't even make that distinction anymore, because I'm so tired of it.

00:30:47.060 Really?

00:30:47.420 Yeah.

00:30:47.580 You're just tired.

00:30:48.360 Really?

00:30:48.720 It was no big deal.

00:30:50.140 It was fine.

00:30:50.760 It was fine.

00:30:52.540 Probably not the right approach.

00:30:54.640 It was fine.

00:30:55.300 Probably not the right thing.

00:30:56.120 It was fine.

00:30:56.360 Yeah, it was fine.

00:30:57.080 Right.

00:30:57.240 But like, you know, if you want to slap a wrist, you could say, all right, you're entering

00:31:00.860 an area you're not supposed to be in, a federal building.

00:31:04.060 A parade zone.

00:31:04.780 Yeah.

00:31:05.300 But like, they're just adding stuff on.

00:31:06.900 They're like, parading, milling, you know, just being kind of annoying.

00:31:11.560 Well, and even people who didn't go in the building have been charged and convicted

00:31:15.940 for that.

00:31:16.940 It's unbelievable.

00:31:17.820 Like, what?

00:31:18.600 Yeah.

00:31:19.040 Yeah.

00:31:19.580 Bizarre.

00:31:20.240 Again, they didn't have to do this, right?

00:31:23.640 They didn't have to overreach.

00:31:25.320 No.

00:31:25.520 You did have the overwhelming majority of people together saying, hey, this is bad stuff.

00:31:30.200 The people really responsible for it should pay for it.

00:31:33.260 Yeah.

00:31:33.420 And instead, they turn that into, what if we go after everybody and try to just overthrow

00:31:38.980 the Republican nominee so we don't have to actually win the election.

00:31:43.800 We just get it by default.

00:31:44.980 If you didn't do that.

00:31:45.980 And you didn't call it an insurrection.

00:31:48.100 You called it what it was.

00:31:49.140 It was a riot.

00:31:50.300 Okay.

00:31:50.660 It was a riot.

00:31:51.380 Everybody would be fine with that.

00:31:52.680 I think even on our side.

00:31:53.840 Totally.

00:31:54.520 Oh, yeah.

00:31:54.920 We would.

00:31:55.420 Yeah.

00:31:55.520 If it was fair justice, I'd be fine with some of those guys going to jail.

00:31:58.640 You bet.

00:31:59.000 Yeah.

00:32:00.040 By the way, I looked up parading.

00:32:02.260 It is a marching or moving around in a place in an ostentatious or attention-seeking way.

00:32:12.280 They, well, they did that.

00:32:14.260 I mean, can we get the Kardashians in prison for life on that one?

00:32:23.140 Wow.

00:32:24.000 Oh, man.

00:32:24.440 Wow.

00:32:27.460 Okay.

00:32:27.980 Anything else that is big that we should be covering today?

00:32:32.080 What was the big story on your show today, Pat?

00:32:33.820 Well, several things, but I'm interested right now in sort of the shift in the Democrat response

00:32:43.280 to last week.

00:32:44.240 Now it seems to be, okay, we're not getting rid of the guy.

00:32:48.380 We're going to make excuses for him.

00:32:50.840 Have you sensed that as well?

00:32:52.780 Well, I saw that he was over-prepared as well as under-prepared.

00:32:57.220 Right.

00:32:58.280 He was both over and under-prepared.

00:33:01.780 Yeah.

00:33:01.920 Yeah.

00:33:02.340 I saw that.

00:33:02.860 And it really hurt him to be both at the same time and plus the cold.

00:33:10.880 You know, when you got a cold and you're over and under-prepared, you're not going to do

00:33:15.380 well.

00:33:16.180 And then there's just the plain.

00:33:18.080 It was one bad night.

00:33:19.380 One bad night. 0.66

00:33:19.880 Get off his back.

00:33:20.360 Three and a half great years, Pat.

00:33:21.980 A great 50 years of public service and one bad night.

00:33:24.920 One bad night.

00:33:25.440 We're just going to toss this guy out.

00:33:26.560 I don't know.

00:33:26.800 He's amazing.

00:33:27.480 Tell that to Rick Perry. 0.55

00:33:28.280 Tell that to Rick Perry. 0.55

00:33:29.960 Rick had back surgery.

00:33:32.940 Yeah.

00:33:33.180 He took, you know, he took painkiller before he went on stage.

00:33:38.060 He couldn't remember one answer and he was doomed.

00:33:41.280 Yeah.

00:33:41.680 That's true.

00:33:42.120 You're out.

00:33:42.460 Yeah.

00:33:42.620 Plus I can show you another about 600 nights and days where he was just as bad, if not worse

00:33:49.140 than last Thursday night.

00:33:50.820 Yeah.

00:33:51.300 It's not one bad night.

00:33:53.560 Let's just make that really clear.

00:33:55.840 The guy has been declining for years now.

00:33:59.780 Yeah.

00:34:00.080 You know, the couple of things I keep thinking of, Pat, when it's related to this is number

00:34:03.900 one, how bad that interview with Robert Herr must be.

00:34:08.980 Oh my gosh.

00:34:10.120 You know, I was always...

00:34:12.060 I don't see it.

00:34:12.780 Obviously you're skeptical.

00:34:14.500 Why are they protecting this?

00:34:15.860 Well, we now know, right?

00:34:17.260 Like we now know it must have looked a lot like that debate and maybe worse.

00:34:21.000 Yeah.

00:34:21.180 And that's why they don't want that released and they're faking executive privilege on

00:34:25.560 this.

00:34:25.860 I mean, that is how bad must that be?

00:34:28.140 And secondarily...

00:34:29.160 Real bad.

00:34:29.780 Think of like, the more that I keep coming back to is the real indicator, because we've

00:34:33.540 all been on this bandwagon, right?

00:34:35.300 We were back in this bandwagon when he initially got elected, that he was too old for this job.

00:34:39.880 But the progression is considerably worse.

00:34:43.180 You watch 2019, 2020 debate footage.

00:34:46.280 Oh, it's a big difference.

00:34:47.280 Totally different.

00:34:47.560 Totally different.

00:34:48.400 We played him back to back earlier this week or maybe late last week and it's unbelievable.

00:34:53.260 He's a different person.

00:34:54.560 We're not talking Sarah Palin footage or Paul Ryan debate footage.

00:35:00.280 We're talking about 2020 debate footage is totally different.

00:35:04.480 The other one that really hits me is him skipping that Super Bowl interview.

00:35:09.860 Yeah.

00:35:10.300 I mean, the fact that they decided not to do an interview with the Super Bowl audience

00:35:17.300 right there.

00:35:17.800 The 100 million people watching.

00:35:19.160 It's CBS News.

00:35:21.160 Not exactly like, you know, you're talking to the Blaze here.

00:35:24.560 Uh-huh.

00:35:25.100 And they decided, you know what?

00:35:26.720 Let's just not expose him to 100 million people in this election season that we're actually

00:35:32.200 kind of behind in.

00:35:33.740 Yeah.

00:35:34.020 What do they know?

00:35:35.920 What have these people seen behind the scenes?

00:35:38.420 A lot.

00:35:38.880 Okay.

00:35:39.160 So here's the thing.

00:35:40.040 Here's the thing.

00:35:40.880 And Democrats, if you're listening, I want you to know the worst thing you could do,

00:35:45.160 the worst thing, it'll be my worst nightmare is if, if you just let him run.

00:35:50.440 Yeah.

00:35:50.660 Oh, yeah.

00:35:51.120 I agree.

00:35:51.580 If you don't replace him, that's a nightmare scenario.

00:35:55.060 I hope you replace him.

00:35:56.140 We all hope you replace Joe Biden immediately.

00:35:59.460 Please, anyone.

00:36:00.500 Yeah, replace him, replace him, replace him.

00:36:02.080 Now, with that being said, think about the mentality.

00:36:06.600 What you know, just as a, just as a human being, you saw him in 2019.

00:36:11.740 You saw him, you know, last, last week, uh, you're seeing him every day.

00:36:17.180 Everybody knows.

00:36:18.800 And you're saying four more years.

00:36:22.800 Nah.

00:36:23.600 It's a, you'd be lucky to make it four more weeks, four more years.

00:36:27.820 Yeah.

00:36:28.440 You know, you might want to say, Hey, we're going to up Kamala up on the ticket to make

00:36:33.420 sure everybody understands who Kamala is.

00:36:35.340 Cause she's great because she'll be the next president. 1.00

00:36:38.240 If he wins.

00:36:39.420 I don't think there's any doubt of that.

00:36:40.820 Yeah, no doubt.

00:36:41.740 And I, you know, a lot of people said this before going into 2020, there's no

00:36:45.680 way he lasts four years.

00:36:46.620 And I was like, yeah, but you know, he, he really wants it.

00:36:50.920 And you can't take that away from a president of the United States with that

00:36:53.740 desire to stick to power.

00:36:56.040 He and Jill both really want it.

00:36:58.080 And all the people around him, think of all these people, these people you look

00:37:01.780 at on TV and you're like, gosh, these, they're awful.

00:37:03.960 Like, why do they have these jobs? 0.86

00:37:05.060 People like Antony Blinken and Corinne Jean-Pierre and like all these just dolts.

00:37:09.620 The reason why their existence is notable in any way.

00:37:15.500 The only thing they'll ever have is Joe Biden's ear.

00:37:20.080 It's the only thing that makes them significant in life at all.

00:37:24.360 And if he goes away, they go away.

00:37:28.560 So they're going to fight tooth and nail to keep him in power no matter what.

00:37:33.920 Yep.

00:37:34.100 And that's why, like, you can't be certain is as obvious as it is that they should

00:37:39.340 switch him out.

00:37:40.300 You can't be certain they're going to do it.

00:37:41.800 And in the meantime, it's elder abuse.

00:37:44.040 That's what we need to.

00:37:44.940 Yeah.

00:37:45.220 It's elder abuse.

00:37:46.640 No, it's not.

00:37:47.740 It is the right thing.

00:37:49.140 You're right.

00:37:49.780 I mean, it's the right, yes, it's the right thing.

00:37:51.200 Keep going.

00:37:51.840 He deserves it.

00:37:52.420 Keep going.

00:37:53.840 He's been a great president.

00:37:55.080 You know, I just hope they don't switch him out.

00:37:57.640 I just hope, I hope, I mean, I hope they do, wait, I hope they do switch him out.

00:38:01.900 I mean, that's what I mean.

00:38:02.500 That's what I mean.

00:38:03.000 I hope they do switch him out.

00:38:04.320 Yeah, he's too good.

00:38:05.080 That's what I was trying to say.

00:38:05.920 Thank you, Pat, for correcting me.

00:38:07.560 You know what would help him?

00:38:09.620 Genucel.

00:40:08.760 Try not to think MAGA when you hear this story.

00:40:28.420 A lesbian couple was beaten by a group of men who they accuse of first making rude comments about their sexuality while they were out celebrating their birthdays.

00:40:38.020 Terrifying scenes captured in video show the couple surrounded by nearly a dozen men with one woman lying on the floor while another appears to be held back by one of the alleged attackers.

00:40:48.780 The assault came after one of the men allegedly made a rude comment about Emma McClain as she was walking in downtown Halifax with her girlfriend, Tori Hogan, after visiting a few bars and celebrating Emma's birthday on June 22nd.

00:41:03.560 Tori, upset about the slur, stood up for him and said, hey, watch your mouth. 0.94

00:41:07.580 That's my girlfriend. 1.00

00:41:08.740 And she followed the men to confront them.

00:41:10.620 Then a group of 10 men allegedly started beating Tori around 1030 at night and they're bruised.

00:41:19.520 Tori was I mean, it's it's bad.

00:41:22.120 It's bad.

00:41:22.700 Now, in a completely unrelated fact that I found in another story about this, the men were Syrian.

00:41:33.580 So.

00:41:36.020 But they're MAGA Syrians. 1.00

00:41:38.120 They're MAGA Syrians. 1.00

00:41:39.980 I mean, I have always said that Damascus is MAGA country.

00:41:43.300 It really is.

00:41:44.720 It really is.

00:41:45.760 The best thing about it is, you know, the low prices on gas there.

00:41:49.260 And I don't I don't mean, you know, like fuel.

00:41:52.420 I mean, like, you know, the gas, you know, Christians or something doesn't cost a lot of money in Syria.

00:41:57.500 It's great.

00:41:58.160 You know, even in that Assad economy. 0.89

00:42:03.620 But he's still digging his way out from the, you know, from the last dictator that was over there.

00:42:08.100 You know, he was left with a mess, left with a mess.

00:42:14.520 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:16.100 Let me tell you about our spotlight sponsor here for Blaze TV, and that is Jace Medical.

00:42:23.020 According to the University of Utah's Drug Information Service, total active drug shortages hit an all time high of 323 in this year's first quarter.

00:42:34.980 There are 48 new shortages of drugs recorded just this year through the month of March.

00:42:40.260 No doubt about it.

00:42:41.100 We are facing a serious situation if things get worse with the economy or with trade or God forbid we go to war.

00:42:49.080 How are you going to take care of your kids if you can't get basic medicines?

00:42:53.260 Here's one that you really need is the Jace case.

00:43:48.940 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:44:04.440 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:44:07.200 All right.

00:44:09.280 So did we decide it would be too weird for me just to say, hey, Jonathan Turley, I want to be your friend?

00:44:15.600 I mean, it would be a little weird.

00:44:19.120 Uncomfortable?

00:44:19.740 Yes.

00:44:20.200 Although it seems to me that it's not necessarily friendship you're looking for.

00:44:25.020 It's more like you want to talk to him off the air so you can steal his ideas and look smart on the air.

00:44:30.500 That's what it sounds like to me.

00:44:32.000 Well, that is so that is so offensive.

00:44:34.020 That is so offensive.

00:44:35.300 Really, it is that I just can't even I don't even want to respond.

00:44:38.260 I have to do a commercial to keep you employed. 0.75

00:44:40.000 And I don't know why you're employed with things like that.

00:44:49.140 No matter if I agree or disagree.

00:44:50.920 Jonathan Turley is up next.

00:44:53.520 First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

00:44:55.620 It is important to realize that change for the better starts with you.

00:45:00.600 What are you doing to help the country be a better place?

00:45:03.600 What are you doing to fight against tyranny of the left or tyranny of the right?

00:45:08.000 Anybody who is fighting against constitutional rights, we got to stand up against.

00:45:13.900 So far, a lot of that tyranny is happening on the left right now, especially the soft tyranny of public-private partnerships.

00:45:22.360 Patriot Mobile is not part of those public-private partnerships.

00:45:26.760 They're America's only Christian conservative mobile company.

00:45:29.460 And their mission is to passionately defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedom.

00:45:35.160 And they do that by offering a great service.

00:45:38.440 Your cell service, you will save a lot of money.

00:45:40.860 You have the same coverage because they're on the same three, you know, cell towers that everybody is on.

00:45:46.400 The same, the big mobile carriers, the three mobile carriers.

00:45:49.660 They piggyback right on that, and you're going to save money.

00:46:17.020 Jonathan Turley, welcome to the program, sir.

00:46:19.380 It is an honor to have you.

00:46:21.100 Thank you very much, Glenn.

00:46:22.600 I really appreciate you having me on.

00:46:25.020 Yeah.

00:46:25.820 You are one of those guys that I have been watching since the Clinton thing, when I think you first kind of really appeared in a big way.

00:46:37.080 And there are times, and this is always a judge to me of when somebody is speaking their truth, and I hate that word, their truth, those words, but when they're speaking from a position where they believe this is the way it is.

00:46:54.100 You piss me off sometimes, and you also really agree with me sometimes, or I agree with you sometimes.

00:47:02.180 And that's really the secret of the Constitution, right?

00:47:05.400 I mean, it cuts both ways.

00:47:07.240 It does, and I think that the point is, I think, profound that you're making, and that the key about our system is this level of civility that we can disagree on occasion,

00:47:21.940 but also recognize that we have certain core values.

00:47:25.320 That's sort of what my new book's about, that there are certain core values that bond us to each other, even when we vehemently disagree.

00:47:34.700 So is, would you say that that is the, because I've been trying to find what the problem is, and, you know, forgive me if you disagree,

00:47:43.560 but I think the biggest problem is this whole early 20th century progressive attitude that just goes beyond the Constitution and written, you know, our written principles.

00:47:55.180 But we don't agree on even the Bill of Rights anymore.

00:48:00.280 You can't, you can't, you know.

00:48:01.760 No, I agree with you, and it is coming from the left.

00:48:05.940 That's what my new book talks about, that I do believe that the greatest threat that we have faced, particularly for free speech, is found in the times we're living.

00:48:18.300 I think this is the most anti-free speech period in our history, and it is the most dangerous because there are differences.

00:48:25.940 And one is this alliance that exists now, that has never formed before, of the government, corporations, academia, and the media.

00:48:36.280 We've never had that before.

00:48:38.000 I mean, the sort of book goes through the, all the anti-free speech periods we've had.

00:48:43.000 We've never faced this organized effort.

00:48:48.260 And we can't assume that just because we survived earlier periods with our Constitution intact, that that's going to be how this all plays out today.

00:48:58.320 First of all, I love you, so I'm going to give you a piece of advice, because you are a constitutional scholar.

00:49:06.080 I'm a broadcast guy.

00:49:08.300 Three times now you've said, my new book, always say, my new book, The Indispensable Right.

00:49:14.800 That way you just keep name dropping all the time.

00:49:17.900 My new book, The Indispensable Right, talks about that.

00:49:20.660 Anyway, his book is The Indispensable Right, and it is about the First Amendment and how freedom of speech, there is this systematic effort to take it out.

00:49:33.020 So let's talk about that.

00:49:37.020 Well, you know, I'm still sort of amazed that we've seen this anti-free speech movement progress to where it is.

00:49:46.380 I have a long chapter in The Indispensable Right.

00:49:50.840 Did I do that one right?

00:49:52.440 Yeah, you did.

00:49:53.080 You did.

00:49:53.440 Very good.

00:49:54.380 But I have a long chapter, for example, on academia and higher education.

00:50:01.520 And I'm still surprised.

00:50:03.780 I've got a colleague who has drafted a new amendment to the First Amendment and has been praised for it on NPR and other news organizations.

00:50:12.020 It is, she maintains that the First Amendment is excessively individualistic.

00:50:18.200 Those are her words.

00:50:19.560 And so the new amendment would allow the government to curtail free speech in the interest of equity.

00:50:25.960 And other, you know, other professors have published anti-free speech books that have also been widely praised, saying that we have to get beyond individual rights.

00:50:37.320 Some Georgetown professors, a Harvard professor, a Yale professor, said we need to break away from what they call constitutionalism.

00:50:45.260 So there's this war on rights generally coming from the left.

00:50:49.740 It is very popular among academics.

00:50:54.820 And it's gaining steam.

00:50:56.840 And so they're raising a generation now of speech phobics, kids that have been told their whole lives that free speech is harmful and triggering.

00:51:05.600 So there's two parts to this.

00:51:09.760 And I think your new book, The Indispensable Right, talks about it, where, you know, you have this culture where we are teaching kids and everybody else, hey, that's harmful speech.

00:51:21.660 You can't say that.

00:51:22.660 Don't say that.

00:51:23.300 That hurts people.

00:51:24.220 Well, that could be a choice.

00:51:25.360 But that's not that that speech.

00:51:30.080 The only speech that needs to be protected is the speech that everybody disagrees with or finds offensive.

00:51:36.780 That's what that's what that's for.

00:51:38.760 You don't need to protect the nice, rosy speeches and the speech.

00:51:43.340 The other part of that is, as you say, is now being institutionalized.

00:51:49.020 But this really started with FDR.

00:51:52.160 It's taken taken some root with Cass Sunstein's works, hasn't it?

00:51:57.980 It has.

00:51:59.300 And what you're seeing is that it's now in vogue to be anti-free speech.

00:52:03.980 I'm a dinosaur in higher education.

00:52:06.140 I mean, most universities have purged conservatives, libertarians, Republicans from their ranks and self-reported surveys.

00:52:15.460 About 40 percent in one survey didn't have a single Republican on on the faculty.

00:52:21.340 There was a you know, the book talks about how, you know, the Harvard Crimson had this whole this piece, which wasn't intended to be hilarious.

00:52:30.660 But they they did this huge piece on the last Republican on the Harvard faculty in this department.

00:52:39.120 And it was like a 90 year old economist.

00:52:42.140 And they did everything but sort of poke him with a stick.

00:52:45.540 I mean, they were sort of fascinated about this is a real Republican still on Harvard's campus.

00:52:51.440 And what's a shame about that, and I go I go into this in an indispensable right, because I I went to University of Chicago and loved it, because when I went there, it was like the Star Wars bar scene is like every possible sort of view.

00:53:10.960 I actually lived in the in a way with the the Dorchester Cooperative where the book The Jungle was written and in the basement was a bunch of Trotskyites that would meet next door was a bunch of libertarians upstairs.

00:53:28.520 We had militant vegans and I loved it.

00:53:33.180 I thought we were absolutely insane, but I was fascinated to talk to people that saw what I was seeing and and but concluded something completely different from what I was concluding.

00:53:46.360 You don't get that anymore.

00:53:48.120 That is, no, I feel sorry for students today because it now the sole new sort of range of viewpoints goes from the left to the far left.

00:53:57.960 I think that is starting to change somewhat in public.

00:54:03.900 I don't it's not in academia and I don't know about your circles, but it is changing to where I once again have friends that are far left, you know, that we disagree with each other on a lot of things.

00:54:22.560 But neither of us believe that our view should be enforced, you know, and and and people silenced for their viewpoint.

00:54:32.520 The only way you learn and grow is if you have somebody say something that you are like, that's that's not right.

00:54:38.620 And then you're challenged on it or you challenge them.

00:54:41.760 And then you either discover you're wrong or they're wrong or there's something missing in the conversation that we both need to explore.

00:54:50.440 No, you're right.

00:54:52.500 I mean, the problem that I have is is how to regain greater intellectual diversity, particularly in higher education after this purging.

00:55:02.320 There's just simply very few alternative viewpoints.

00:55:06.780 And it is still a vicious environment.

00:55:09.780 You know, the book goes into stories.

00:55:12.660 Which book?

00:55:13.380 Which book?

00:55:14.180 The Indispensable Right goes into these stories of academics.

00:55:20.040 You know, there's one guy in North Carolina that they pursued for years.

00:55:23.560 He had to go to court three times to keep his job.

00:55:27.060 Then someone found out he made a joke to a bunch of friends at a lunch and he was put again under investigation.

00:55:34.520 And finally, they pressured him to resign.

00:55:37.140 And on the last day that he would be a professor, he went home and blew his brains out.

00:55:44.020 And he's not the only suicide.

00:55:46.720 What people don't understand is that if you are a dissenting voice today in higher education, they take everything away from you that intellectual values.

00:55:57.380 They take away publication opportunities, conferences, associations, and they strip you of everything you value.

00:56:07.700 And it has succeeded in silencing professors.

00:56:12.040 I've had professors send stuff to my blog, which is a free speech blog.

00:56:15.700 And these are, and I always write back, say, why don't you write this up?

00:56:21.400 And they said, look, you know, I'm 40.

00:56:23.620 I'm 50.

00:56:24.380 I can't lose this job.

00:56:27.020 And I can't be targeted.

00:56:29.220 I need to be able to publish.

00:56:31.640 And so it's been very successful.

00:56:33.680 What people don't understand is the reason that academic blew his brains out is that he went home and realized that today was going to be my last day to do the only thing I ever wanted to do.

00:56:46.120 That's the environment we're living in now.

00:56:48.560 It is fearful and it's chilling.

00:56:51.220 So it goes beyond.

00:56:52.840 Let's move out of academia and talk about this monster of public-private partnerships in social media, for example, where the government can come in and lay a heavy hand.

00:57:09.940 And sometimes they are willingly doing it.

00:57:13.360 Sometimes they're doing it because we've got to negotiate with the government on this, and it's much more important to just let this go.

00:57:20.340 I mean, it seems to me that the administrative state has found that we don't need Congress anymore.

00:57:28.860 We don't need to try to pass anything.

00:57:32.340 We can just get others in the private sector to do what we want them to do and silence people.

00:57:40.420 No, that's absolutely right.

00:57:43.400 And I go into a great depth about this alliance and how it is laid out.

00:57:50.340 It is the indispensable right.

00:57:51.940 And, you know, this partnership is really quite daunting, and it's been very successful.

00:58:02.060 And President Biden has played a big role in that.

00:58:05.260 I mean, Joe Biden is arguably the most anti-free speech president since John Adams.

00:58:12.060 And that may sound like it says a lot, but it's very true that John Adams was—

00:58:19.460 Hey, hold on, hold on just a second, because I want to make sure you're not interrupted during that.

00:58:24.460 I'm going to take a one-minute break, back with Jonathan Turley.

00:58:26.680 And I can't wait to hear how Biden even rivals John Adams coming up.

00:58:32.960 First, let me tell you about Lear Capital.

00:58:35.200 Are you comfortable with the way things are right now?

00:58:39.120 I will tell you, I haven't been for a long time because everyone is relying on the system to work.

00:58:46.840 Well, there's programs and systems, you know, and it'll hold the dollar together.

00:58:50.840 And, you know, for a long time, I said, we're going to lose our world reserve currency because you can't do to a currency what we're doing and then be the gold standard.

00:59:02.600 No, Glenn, that will never happen.

00:59:04.500 Well, it's happening now.

00:59:07.220 Saudi Arabia just pulled away from our deal of the petrodollar.

00:59:12.720 That makes us very vulnerable.

00:59:15.520 Please, protect the money that you have, even if it's 10% of what you have for retirement or whatever.

00:59:23.160 Please protect it.

00:59:24.480 Remember, everything's going to be paid out in dollars or gold.

00:59:28.740 And I can guarantee you the government's not going to be paying it off in gold.

00:59:32.760 They'll be paying it off in some sort of cryptocurrency from the Federal Reserve Bank.

00:59:38.260 Anyway, I want you to call right now.

01:00:00.800 800-957-GOLD.

01:00:03.740 10 seconds.

01:00:04.380 Station ID.

01:00:12.900 Jonathan Turley has a new book out called The Indispensable Right.

01:00:16.620 My gosh, I can't get him to stop saying that name.

01:00:19.360 The Indispensable Right, Free Speech in an Age of Rage.

01:00:23.200 And you just made a pretty remarkable statement that Joe Biden is up there with John Adams.

01:00:30.780 In case people don't know, explain John Adams.

01:00:33.680 You think, no, he's a founder.

01:00:35.760 Oh, yeah.

01:00:37.180 Explain John Adams and then compare him to Biden.

01:00:40.080 Well, you know, The Indispensable Right has a long treatment of our historical periods.

01:00:47.860 And probably the most interesting one is the earliest one of the Adams administration. 0.99

01:00:53.800 And John Adams was a terrible hypocrite. 0.93

01:00:55.920 You know, he was someone who praised the Boston Tea Party. 1.00

01:01:00.240 You know, this country was born in rage.

01:01:02.900 That's what the Boston Tea Party was.

01:01:05.100 And he praised it as a majestic moment.

01:01:07.760 But as soon as he became president, he proceeded to try to arrest and even execute political opponents.

01:01:15.180 And that included members of Congress, ministers, writers.

01:01:20.200 And they were all gathered up under the Alien and Sedition Acts. 0.92

01:01:26.160 And at the end of his life, he tried to sort of reverse engines and say that, you know, he sort of blamed it on others, which was rather pathetic.

01:01:33.840 What's fascinating is in the 1800s, Thomas Jefferson ran on free speech, on contesting Adams, who was seeking re-election because of his crackdown.

01:01:49.780 And he won.

01:01:50.800 And in fact, one of the things that I wrote a column recently is that if Trump was smart, he would have history repeat itself.

01:01:57.160 He would make free speech, one of the issues in this campaign, because Joe Biden is the most anti-free speech president since Adams.

01:02:06.320 You have a federal government.

01:02:07.060 And that's taking into consideration Woodrow Wilson?

01:02:11.520 Yes.

01:02:12.400 And the reason is that we've never had a censorship program like the one we're seeing today.

01:02:17.920 One judge referred to it as Orwellian.

01:02:20.200 And Joe Biden has been a critical role in that.

01:02:23.660 He gave a speech once and said that social media companies were, quote, killing people by not censoring more.

01:02:31.460 His administration has funded academic units and other efforts to target, identify individuals and groups.

01:02:42.020 These grants have gone to trying to squeeze off the revenue of people with opposing viewpoints.

01:02:48.980 His administration is a nightmare for free speech.

01:02:54.000 And if Trump was smart and the other people running against Biden, they would do what Jefferson did.

01:02:59.840 Because what I'm trying to get at in The Indispensable Right is that we are a divided country.

01:03:07.600 It's not the first time.

01:03:08.600 This is not our first age of rage.

01:03:11.260 But we still have something in our DNA.

01:03:15.040 And that is this idea of free speech that binds us.

01:03:20.380 And this is something that can unify the country.

01:03:23.280 Polls show that the public is against censorship.

01:03:26.360 They have opposed these efforts.

01:03:27.680 And I think that reflects something really profound.

01:03:32.500 And indeed, the Indispensable Right is going to get barbs from a lot, from many on the left.

01:03:39.380 Because it suggests, one of the things I ask in the book is,

01:03:43.600 we all agree that free speech is indispensable, which is a term used by Justice Lewis Brandeis.

01:03:51.400 But we can't agree about why.

01:03:54.140 And why do we continue to struggle with free speech after so many years?

01:03:59.360 And I think the answer is, we have a sort of original sin in our republic.

01:04:04.420 When the First Amendment was first drafted, it was the most revolutionary statement of free speech in the history of the world.

01:04:12.620 It still is.

01:04:13.540 That's why you have law professors trying to amend it.

01:04:16.320 It's still controversial.

01:04:18.500 The idea that you have this simple statement that Congress cannot abridge free speech.

01:04:24.960 Well, when that was written, many of the framers believed that free speech was a natural right given to them by God.

01:04:31.740 Okay, hold on just a second.

01:04:33.680 Hold that thought.

01:04:34.420 We're going to come back and get the rest of this from Jonathan Turley.

01:04:38.880 His new book is The Indispensable Right.

01:04:43.260 The First Amendment is under attack.

01:04:46.500 Why free speech is important, especially now in our age of rage.

01:05:15.580 Anyway, wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where your credit card balance wasn't hit with crippling compound interest?

01:05:21.760 Sounds nice.

01:05:22.400 Unfortunately, we don't live in that world.

01:05:24.200 And somebody who's had to use credit cards a lot, chances are pretty fair that you could end up in debt up to your eyeballs and entrapped.

01:05:35.320 Just don't know what to do.

01:05:36.300 Should you spend it on a credit card?

01:05:39.240 So many Americans now are like, I have no choice.

01:05:41.720 I have to live on a credit card.

01:05:44.380 And then the compound interest hits you.

01:05:47.120 Here's what I would like to do.

01:05:48.260 If you own your own home, and this isn't right for everybody, but please do your own homework.

01:06:22.280 So we're with Jonathan Turley, and because he has given me so much without him even knowing it over the years of understanding what's going on,

01:06:38.060 I wanted to give him the gift of selling a lot of books.

01:06:41.360 I'm trying to get him to say the name of his book, The Indispensable Right, as many times as he can in conversation.

01:06:47.240 And don't lose that skill, Jonathan.

01:06:49.640 He joins us.

01:06:50.600 We're talking about his book, The Indispensable Right, and that is freedom of speech.

01:06:55.040 And you were just going into freedom of speech and natural law.

01:07:01.280 Yes.

01:07:02.120 You know, what I really focus on in the beginning of The Indispensable Right is to look at how free speech was perceived and viewed.

01:07:13.660 And what the most revolutionary aspect of the American Revolution was that free speech was viewed as a natural right.

01:07:22.880 It was given to you by God, not by the government.

01:07:25.100 And that comes out in the writings of many people at the time.

01:07:29.540 And in my view, it's the correct one, that free speech is something that is quintessentially human.

01:07:37.800 And I talk about how we are hardwired, even physiologically, for free speech.

01:07:43.360 And if you deny someone free speech, parts of the brain actually shrink.

01:07:48.460 There's a physiological response, the denial of the ability to express yourself.

01:07:54.180 And that was captured early on.

01:07:57.620 But within a few years, the courts returned to this English-Blackstonian view of free speech, that it's valued because it helps democracy.

01:08:08.340 And obviously, it does that, but it does something much, much more.

01:08:13.160 And what I try to get at is why free speech is a natural right.

01:08:19.360 And, you know, the fact is, as I talk about in The Indispensable Right, you know, we overlap in DNA.

01:08:26.660 We have 60% overlap with a banana.

01:08:30.140 Does that make us talking bananas?

01:08:31.840 Is that what we are about, or is there something about human beings that require us to be able to project part of ourselves into the world around us?

01:08:43.160 And that's what is being protected.

01:08:45.960 But that's what was lost in the courts within a few years of our revolution.

01:08:51.240 And ever since then, we've been on this slippery slope where courts have done tradeoffs on what speech can be protected and when.

01:08:59.520 You know, I read, I don't remember where, but I read years ago, some of the dialogue back and forth at the time of the Alien and Sedition Act.

01:09:10.800 And they argued, the winning side argued, that the government just cannot be the arbiter of truth.

01:09:23.480 You know, there's too many strings and the questions will always go to the highest power.

01:09:32.060 And if you can't, if the government can say, you can't ask that question, or we have the truth and that is the truth, like they did in COVID, you're screwed because there's nowhere else to go.

01:09:43.980 That's right. If you want to see why free speech has to be viewed as indispensable and natural, just look around you.

01:09:54.740 Look what happened in COVID.

01:09:56.400 You know, I gave a speech recently in Chicago, and many of the leading scientists that were censored, banned, throttled, because they spoke against policies were there.

01:10:10.380 And they have been vindicated. Now, federal agencies are saying what they said.

01:10:15.900 But, you know, they have not been given back their positions on associations.

01:10:19.680 Some of them were fired.

01:10:20.760 And that's exactly what this book tries to get at, is that there's a danger to denying free speech.

01:10:28.740 And you saw that with COVID.

01:10:30.420 We needed to have that debate.

01:10:32.500 We needed to debate whether we should close all of our schools, unlike many of our allies in Europe.

01:10:36.940 We didn't have it because the media, the government, corporations shut down the debate.

01:10:42.460 Shut it all down.

01:10:43.560 Yeah.

01:10:45.020 Jonathan, let me switch gears here a bit.

01:10:47.760 The idea that the Supreme Court is setting up some Nazi regime is unbelievably, not just laughable, but so disingenuous when they are, you know, the Chevron deference.

01:11:04.580 And now they're saying that, oh, well, the Supreme Court yesterday came out and they made the president a king.

01:11:10.800 No, they didn't.

01:11:13.420 You if if you are doing something that is illegal and unconstitutional, you have impeachment and then you can go to trial.

01:11:23.200 Am I wrong on that?

01:11:24.860 What am I missing?

01:11:25.660 Oh, you're right.

01:11:26.440 You're right.

01:11:26.960 I wrote a column on my blog this morning responding to what the president said last night.

01:11:32.620 And the president, what the president said was untrue.

01:11:36.460 He was misleading the public as to what was said in the opinion.

01:11:41.300 He said, for example, the Supreme Court gave absolute immunity to presidents on all things and that they could now become effectively dictators.

01:11:50.540 That's not true.

01:11:51.660 The Supreme Court adopted the middle path.

01:11:54.080 It rejected the more extreme arguments presented by the defense.

01:11:58.880 It rejected the more extreme arguments being presented or were endorsed by the lower courts.

01:12:04.820 And instead, it said, look, we're going to divide this into three parts.

01:12:08.900 If this is a core constitutional function, there's absolute immunity to carrying out those functions.

01:12:15.080 That's consistent, as Chief Justice Roberts said, with the history of past cases.

01:12:20.000 This didn't come out of the head of Zeus.

01:12:21.580 What Robert said is that we've never been pressed on this point to come and delineate these things.

01:12:27.180 But he cited a great deal of cases, a great number of cases that support that.

01:12:32.480 The second part is when you have an official function that's removed from those core functions.

01:12:37.300 And the court said there's a presumptive immunity, which means a president can lose that immunity in court if the prosecutions can establish a case for it.

01:12:47.040 And then the third category is unofficial conduct and actions, and you have no immunity.

01:12:52.740 So it's vastly different from what the president and many people in the public have said.

01:12:58.300 But this is part of the age of rage, right?

01:13:00.640 This is part of the addiction.

01:13:02.100 It was triggered immediately if people said there will be death squads in the street.

01:13:07.960 And what concerns me is that many politicians are joining in on this in Congress, and it's reckless, and it's wrong, and it's dangerous.

01:13:18.000 This is what sends people to houses like Justice Kavanaugh trying to kill him.

01:13:21.960 So what is the solution to get back?

01:13:29.220 Because all of our institutions are teaching the opposite. 0.99

01:13:34.380 Our press, I think, is they're either just dumb as a box of rocks, have no intellectual honesty or curiosity, or just in on it. 0.87

01:13:45.800 And they think that the new way is to get rid of capitalism and the republic, for which it stands, and just create a whole new kind of, in my opinion, dystopian world. 0.97

01:14:00.680 How do we navigate our way through back to agreeing on principles?

01:14:07.800 You know, part of the reason, you know, The Indispensable Rights took 30 years to finish was that I didn't want to write a book until I could really deal with not just what free speech means, but how we can have a reawakening in this country to unite it around these core values, particularly free speech.

01:14:29.220 And I think we can.

01:14:31.040 And the book has chapters on the media, higher education, on Congress.

01:14:36.140 The media is going to hopefully correct itself because it's killing itself.

01:14:41.900 Media outlets are failing.

01:14:43.960 People are not buying it.

01:14:46.460 You know, the whole Let's Go Brandon movement was a criticism of the media as much as the president.

01:14:53.200 And you have new media emerging, much like at the beginning of our republic.

01:14:57.880 But I emphasize that we need to retake higher education.

01:15:01.140 We need to restore a diversity of thought, and it goes through various ways to do that.

01:15:07.000 One of the proposals I make, by the way, can be done very quickly in the new Congress if we have the votes.

01:15:13.100 And that is, pass a law that prohibits a single federal dollar from being used to support, including through grants, any organization trying to censor, target, or squeeze the revenue of opposing views.

01:15:29.840 It's to get the government out of the censorship business, to say you cannot spend a dime on those types of programs.

01:15:38.040 Now, that means that the agencies can speak in their own voice.

01:15:40.700 If Mayorkas wants to go on Homeland Security's website and say everyone's a liar, then God bless them.

01:15:46.600 That's fine.

01:15:47.280 What he can't do is to do what he's doing now, which is to use surrogates for censorship.

01:15:54.040 Congress can half that law easily, get the government out of censorship, and then we can turn to higher education.

01:16:01.040 And one of the things I propose is to say that you cannot receive federal funding from the U.S. government unless you meet 10 simple principles in the book on free speech.

01:16:11.500 You know, if these universities were committing racial discrimination, nobody would object to withholding federal funds.

01:16:18.040 And yet they can deny the core right of citizens of free speech.

01:16:23.320 And yet everyone says, well, that's their choice.

01:16:26.360 It's not their choice.

01:16:27.240 We're not a captive audience.

01:16:28.760 State legislators do not have to fund state universities who are barring the views of half of this nation.

01:16:39.000 Jonathan, we're out of time.

01:16:40.180 Would you come back and talk about those solutions at some point with us?

01:16:45.720 Of course.

01:16:46.440 I'd be happy to, Glenn.

01:16:47.440 Okay.

01:16:48.060 Great.

01:16:48.740 Jonathan Turley, the name of the book, again, he never mentioned it, The Indispensable Right.

01:16:54.360 It's available at bookstores everywhere.

01:16:56.680 Thank you so much, Jonathan.

01:16:57.820 Sincerely, from all of us doing what we do, you are always honest.

01:17:03.680 And we may not agree with each other all the time, but you have, it's good to hear somebody that you know they're not playing games.

01:17:14.420 This is what they really believe, and you're saying it.

01:17:17.340 Thank you.

01:17:18.360 God bless you.

01:17:18.900 Thank you, Glenn.

01:17:19.300 It was great to talk to you.

01:17:21.140 Great.

01:17:21.560 Thank you, Jonathan Turley.

01:18:52.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:58.220 You know, sometimes I read the news, and I just can't believe it.

01:19:14.420 It's like somebody's writing a fiction novel.

01:19:16.760 I mean, honestly, if I walked into a boardroom and I said, here's what the book's going to be about. 0.97

01:19:25.100 The president has an addicted son, and he's addicted to pornography and crack cocaine. 0.56

01:19:31.580 He's doing all kinds of shady business deals all around the world. 0.91

01:19:34.200 And he leaves his laptop at a computer repair store, okay?

01:19:40.340 And it has a bunch of emails on it, too, about, you know, giving 10% to the big guy.

01:19:44.060 And the big guy is the president.

01:19:46.660 Oh, and the president is senile, too.

01:19:49.640 Wouldn't you think they'd go, hmm, nobody's going to really believe that?

01:19:53.340 But that's reality.

01:19:54.800 What is unreal has become real now.

01:20:00.440 So how do we talk about what is real?

01:20:05.100 Well, I and my staff have been thinking about this for a long, long time, and we have to hit people where they live.

01:20:12.260 And how do you cut through and say, no, this actually matters, freedom of speech.

01:20:19.680 You know, usually people only learn it once they've run into that, you know, plate glass window.

01:20:25.360 And they're like, ow, that hurt.

01:20:27.380 Everybody else is going, I told you, that's a plate glass window.

01:20:30.100 You don't want to run into it.

01:20:32.460 Usually you have to be really hurt.

01:20:34.240 Well, I'd like to, I mean, are we hurt enough yet?

01:20:37.440 Can we all agree that things are not going well, and I don't really want to go down any further?

01:20:43.520 Does truth really matter?

01:20:46.780 And what is truth?

01:20:48.200 Is there truth?

01:20:49.420 Yes, there is truth.

01:20:52.900 I got together with one of my staff members, Michaela, who is just, she's just a brilliant, brilliant 20-something.

01:21:03.300 And I told her a story that was a fictional novel in my head for a long time.

01:21:10.660 And it's kind of like the Michael Vey series where teenagers can grow up with the characters over the course of the series, or, you know, kind of in a way, Harry Potter, I guess, where, you know, you just feel like it's your childhood.

01:21:22.860 The future feels so uncertain right now because we don't know truth.

01:21:28.680 And this generation is not keeping up with the news.

01:21:32.740 They're not being taught the truth in school.

01:21:35.280 They don't know the crisis we're in.

01:21:37.340 They never grew up in the America that was, you know, where the World Trade Centers were standing.

01:21:44.480 We can't forget about them.

01:21:46.680 We can't abandon them.

01:21:48.740 We can't let the left just choke them to death and choke their imaginations and their sense of adventure and spirit.

01:21:59.080 So we wrote the story, Chasing Embers.

01:22:03.000 It features real stories from history that weave into the characters' lives in the form of secret messages or codes and help the characters make life-or-death decisions.

01:22:13.620 It's historical fiction turned on its head where the characters and the setting is fictional, but the stories they tell are real because they're our American stories.

01:22:25.860 It's July 4th this week.

01:22:28.160 Give the teenager in your life the gift of our history in a way they have never really read it before.

01:22:34.920 If you talk to your kids and you're like, let me tell you the story, and they roll their eyes, give them this book.

01:22:40.360 They won't roll their eyes at the history in this book.

01:22:46.120 We have worked really hard and really tried to get into the minds of teenagers and how they relate to stories, how they access information.

01:22:58.000 But it will teach them the things that are important and that the truth is worth dying for, is worth struggling and living for.

01:23:07.140 Chasing Embers, it releases on July 23rd, but you can pre-order it right now at glennbeck.com.

01:23:14.960 And if you order it through glennbeck.com, the book will get there a couple of weeks early, so it'll be shipping next week to your home.

01:23:23.780 Get it at glennbeck.com or wherever you buy your books.

01:23:26.860 It's Chasing Embers.

01:23:28.900 My new book, Chasing Embers for young adults.

01:23:37.140 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:38.960 Let me talk to you about American Giant.

01:23:40.700 American Giant, there was a time when American Manufactory was the envy of the world.

01:23:46.180 That time has passed, unfortunately.

01:23:48.780 It was the quality the world trusted.

01:23:51.220 And you can trust it again with American Giant.

01:23:53.780 Because 11 years ago, American Giant set out to change it.

01:23:57.480 They started producing quality American clothing made with American cotton grown by American farmers.

01:24:04.080 Then it's all processed here in American.

01:24:06.540 America.

01:24:07.740 Then it was, you know, creating jobs for sewers and cutters and factory workers in towns all across America.

01:24:16.040 Celebrate Independence Day.

01:24:17.480 I ask you to support the vision of craftsmanship and the determination of American Giant.

01:24:22.000 They've got a great looking t-shirt in three colors.

01:24:24.460 It says American Made across the chest.

01:25:02.680 We can't compromise, we gotta stay together, if we're gonna survive, stay up straight, and hold the line, it's a new day, a time to rise.

01:25:27.680 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:25:43.820 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. We're glad you're here. Jill Biden is the one standing in the way, I guess, of Joe Biden saying, I'm not gonna run.

01:25:55.140 Okay, what does that mean? Are they in it together? Do they really believe that? Hunter is very vocal. You can't quit now, Dad.

01:26:05.320 I wonder why. We'll talk about that coming up in just a second. First, Jason from Texas wrote in that his nine-year-old Great Dane, who has a thyroid problem, up until recently, she would sleep 23 hours out of the day.

01:26:19.740 Who knows, getting to be there now. And that's before he tried Rough Greens. He said, I can't believe the difference. She's happy. She does the happy dance all the way to her bowl now. 0.90

01:26:30.240 She's so much more active. Even jumped on my shoulders twice last week. How? She hadn't been able to do that in almost five years. It's an amazing transformation.

01:26:39.640 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Rough Greens. Well, thanks for writing in and let me know your story. I appreciate it. It's not a dog food. It's a supplement developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black that you sprinkle on the dog's food.

01:27:22.440 All right. So, I don't know if you saw Vogue magazine. No. I don't even know where they sell those things anymore.

01:27:29.920 But Vogue magazine, Jill Biden was on the cover. And that's why they had to leave the debate. And the very next day, they had to be in New York with Annie Leibovitz doing a photo shoot with the whole family. And it was great.

01:27:46.240 So, she's on the cover and she's wearing a beautiful Ralph Lauren dress, which only retails for about $5,000. So, who doesn't have one of those in the closet?

01:27:57.140 You know, it's an interesting look. She's wearing a $5,000 dress on the cover. And then she talks about food prices.

01:28:09.980 And she knows that food prices are up and people are really struggling. But she's, you know, she's a down-to-earth Dr. B. She is. She's, you know, she teaches in Wilmington.

01:28:21.260 And she shops for her own groceries. And she's, you know, working at the community college. And she said, I assign my students articles instead of books because books are expensive.

01:28:32.580 Wow. That's how down-to-earth she really is. She's great. She's great.

01:28:35.840 Now, she's married to Joe Biden, who has always been incompetent. Let's be honest about it. Never really did anything in his life. That's why he's always a truck driver. 0.72

01:28:47.800 Or, you know, I was, you know, I taught constitutional law. No, he didn't. No, he didn't. He's done every job. He's lived in every neighborhood.

01:28:57.660 He's, you know, he was there marching with the civil rights. No, he wasn't. No, he wasn't. He was standing up for Martin Luther King, you know, when he was in Congress.

01:29:06.980 No, he got into Congress in the early 1970s. Martin Luther King was dead. I don't know if he notices that.

01:29:13.620 He's always, he's making stuff up about himself, I think, because he's a bit player in somebody else's show.

01:29:20.700 He's always been a bit player, and he wants to be the man. You know, he wants to, you know, give himself credit for something because he doesn't have anything real.

01:29:34.260 And I think, you know, he acted like a big shot and, you know, he's not Bill and Hillary Clinton.

01:29:40.100 And he's not as subtle at bribery and theft, I guess, in, you know, Chelsea's not a crack addict.

01:29:49.660 So, you know, but I think, you know, he was playing the big shot by going over to, you know, Ukraine and say, yeah, I'm not going to give him that, you know, billion dollars unless they fire this prosecutor.

01:30:01.580 He had to tell that story. He had to tell that story, even though it implicates him in crimes.

01:30:07.460 He had to tell that story because it made him a big man.

01:30:12.320 Now, everything's starting to fold in on him, and they, you know, they're going to get caught.

01:30:18.280 They're already, the loans, the kickbacks, you know, the 70 yellow flags from the Treasury and banks.

01:30:27.540 I mean, it can be unraveled fairly easy.

01:30:31.900 He doesn't have the capability of hiding it anymore, and she has to protect him and the whole family.

01:30:36.580 Can you imagine doing that?

01:30:39.040 They can't trust the Obamas to protect them.

01:30:42.340 I mean, Barack was running a lot of the show behind the scenes, but Michelle's not going to risk anything to save the Bidens.

01:30:49.000 And Jill knows if Joe doesn't control the Justice Department, they're sunk.

01:30:53.480 They're sunk.

01:30:54.020 I think she's trying to hold the crime family together as long as she possibly can, but also because she is, she's somebody who loves being the First Lady.

01:31:06.660 She loves it.

01:31:07.900 You know, it's the one thing I had respect for Michelle Obama.

01:31:11.900 She didn't love it.

01:31:12.660 Now, I lost respect because she actually hated it and didn't want to be, you know, was, was just didn't want to be in the White House because of all the oppression and blah, blah, blah. 0.70

01:31:24.780 But usually people who want it are dangerous when they have that much power.

01:31:28.580 You know, we've already had our first female president. 1.00

01:31:32.640 I don't know if people know that.

01:31:34.320 And this isn't a trick.

01:31:35.620 You know, it's not like, yeah, it's we actually had a female president for 17 months and it was in 1919 and it was Edith Wilson.

01:31:46.780 She actually became the acting president because she assigned herself. 0.91

01:31:52.680 I mean, she, her husband was trying to push the League of Nations, which then later became the UN and America wouldn't have it.

01:32:01.460 And so he got on a train and he was traveling coast to coast.

01:32:04.440 And I think he was in California.

01:32:05.640 And in the middle of the speech, he did what Joe Biden is doing now.

01:32:08.920 He just stopped.

01:32:13.400 And everybody freaked out and he couldn't recover.

01:32:15.320 And so they rushed him off stage, put him on a train, rushed him back to Washington, D.C.

01:32:22.100 And when I say rushed him back, put him on a train.

01:32:24.380 So it was days.

01:32:25.800 He gets back to Washington.

01:32:27.680 He has another stroke in the White House.

01:32:31.080 Edith is the only one that sees it.

01:32:34.100 She puts him in bed and realizes, oh, boy, we're in trouble here because, you know, we're going to have to leave the White House soon.

01:32:42.300 Now, she was she was born poor.

01:32:46.660 She grew up, I think, in West Virginia.

01:32:48.820 She married some old guy when she was young who owned the largest jewelry store, I guess, in in West Virginia.

01:32:58.860 And and so he was worth a lot of money.

01:33:01.840 So she married him young.

01:33:02.900 Then he died.

01:33:03.800 And then she decided, I want to date Woodrow Wilson because he's cool.

01:33:10.220 And Woodrow Wilson fell in love with her because she had a kitten face.

01:33:16.200 I don't know exactly what that means, Woody.

01:33:20.780 But have you seen the cat lady?

01:33:24.160 Anyway, so he.

01:33:26.320 You know, he marries her.

01:33:28.080 She just wants recognition.

01:33:30.020 She likes being someone.

01:33:33.320 OK, so she marries Woodrow Wilson.

01:33:36.000 And then a few years later, you know, he's he's having a stroke.

01:33:41.240 Well, she was never anyone.

01:33:43.940 And now her ticket to being someone just dropped almost dead.

01:33:48.800 So they were they were in the White House with her kittenish good looks and.

01:34:00.500 He's now in bed.

01:34:02.620 And everybody is talking in Washington, the cabinet, everybody.

01:34:06.100 Where's the president?

01:34:08.020 Now, Woodrow Wilson gave her the keys, literal keys to all of the safe and locked drawers and doors in the White House.

01:34:16.800 She would sit in on all of the war meetings and all meetings and she would just take notes.

01:34:24.100 Exactly what Jill Biden has been doing.

01:34:27.320 OK.

01:34:28.880 And then.

01:34:30.860 When he drops almost dead from a stroke, he's up in bed and she would go into the meetings and she would say, it's OK.

01:34:39.060 President sent me down.

01:34:40.420 I'll report to him.

01:34:41.800 I'm just supposed to take notes and talk to you about it.

01:34:44.000 And then I'll report on what he says so that she'd take notes and then she'd go upstairs and then she'd scribble stuff on the side of all of her notes.

01:34:53.880 And she'd say, it's shaky handwriting, you know, because he's but he's I went through it and this is what he wants you to do.

01:35:00.640 It wasn't what he wanted to do.

01:35:02.620 It's what she wanted to do.

01:35:04.140 She wrote the little notes and then she would go back and she would say, this is what he wants to do.

01:35:09.100 At one point, I think I'm probably wrong.

01:35:13.740 You have to look this up.

01:35:14.600 I think it was the Treasury secretary is one of the secretaries, somebody in the cabinet.

01:35:18.500 And they ordered a cabinet meeting to come together and didn't alert her.

01:35:24.520 She fired him.

01:35:26.220 Imagine the wife of the president. 1.00

01:35:28.000 She blamed it on Woodrow, but he wasn't he wasn't around.

01:35:33.180 He couldn't understand it for 17 months.

01:35:38.440 This went on.

01:35:40.480 And she was she called this her stewardship.

01:35:44.020 I'm just I'm just being a steward of the president.

01:35:46.340 I'm just, you know, the country's in need and the president needs some rest.

01:35:50.240 And so he's just giving me the stewardship.

01:35:52.740 She was actually the president of the United States.

01:35:55.440 She was the acting president of the United States, and she convinced the vice president

01:36:01.480 that the president didn't need to be replaced because, you know, they talked about what do

01:36:07.320 we we should probably have the vice president.

01:36:09.840 And she's like, no, he's going to be fine.

01:36:12.000 You know, just be a couple more.

01:36:13.300 It's always a couple more weeks.

01:36:14.820 Just going to be a couple more weeks.

01:36:16.520 He's just you know, he just needs some rest.

01:36:19.860 And, you know, he's working from the bedroom.

01:36:22.100 And, you know, I'm just helping.

01:36:24.260 It's my stewardship.

01:36:25.060 It's it's really my my sacrifice for the nation.

01:36:31.240 Well, eventually, the Congress got together of his own party and they marched to the White

01:36:41.840 House and they got the cabinet together and they said, Edith, I demand to see the president

01:36:47.780 right now.

01:36:48.420 She said, well, you can't.

01:36:49.260 He's sleeping.

01:36:50.140 Well, we don't care.

01:36:51.420 We need to see him right now.

01:36:52.840 Because she was telling the Democratic Party he's going to run for a neck for another four 0.62

01:36:59.280 years.

01:37:00.800 Now, what does that sound like?

01:37:02.620 So, Edith Wilson starts to register her husband, Woodrow Wilson, for a campaign.

01:37:11.580 He hasn't been seen in almost two years.

01:37:16.740 They said, you're going to let this run to run its course.

01:37:25.300 If you let us see the president right now and we won't kick him out of office, but he's

01:37:34.780 not running for president for a third term.

01:37:36.800 And this is going to come to an end.

01:37:39.500 That's finally what she agreed with.

01:37:42.300 She finally was like, OK, OK, OK, OK.

01:37:44.640 Now, up until her death in 1961, she said, oh, no, no, I I was never the president.

01:37:53.600 I was never the president.

01:37:56.300 But I did know him so well that I did.

01:38:00.820 You know, I just conferred that to the others that that's what the president would want and

01:38:08.160 would want to be doing right now.

01:38:10.100 But she was our first president.

01:38:11.880 Now, does any of that, any of that sound familiar?

01:38:17.920 Any of it?

01:38:18.720 Any?

01:38:19.360 Anybody?

01:38:23.740 So Jill Biden likes being the the first lady. 1.00

01:38:30.660 She's dangerously close to being POTUS, not FLOTUS.

01:38:35.000 And from apparently good sources around those who know, I don't put any stock into this,

01:38:47.500 but negotiations are underway.

01:38:49.780 And I do believe that just like negotiations were underway with Nixon, with Nixon and Watergate.

01:38:56.340 They said, OK, you're leaving because you don't have but we're not going to he's Ford

01:39:01.560 is going to pardon you so you don't go to jail.

01:39:03.680 And we're just going to walk away nice.

01:39:07.040 Well, Jill has some power. 1.00

01:39:10.780 She wants, apparently, protection from prosecution of the Biden family.

01:39:17.120 She wants two billion dollars presidential library fund. 1.00

01:39:23.040 And she wants a guaranteed book deal.

01:39:26.460 Now, I don't know if any of this is true.

01:39:29.480 But that's the kind of stuff that Edith Wilson would have done. 0.97

01:39:41.100 Building her her husband into something that he really wasn't.

01:39:46.540 To make sure that she is remembered and powerful and that she gets the credit she deserves.

01:39:58.800 We'll see.

01:39:59.560 I just thought it was an interesting history lesson today that maybe somebody might find a little familiar today.

01:40:07.320 All right.

01:40:07.800 Back in just a minute.

01:40:08.600 First, let me tell you about leave home gutter.

01:40:11.000 There is something that's pretty cool, sure fired way to make sure you were living in the future.

01:40:16.700 And that is getting gutters that don't need to be cleaned.

01:40:21.040 Now, I don't mind cleaning my gutters because I don't really clean.

01:40:23.720 My son cleans them, you know, and she my wife was like, honey, he's seven.

01:40:29.560 And I'm like, the ladder is not that tall.

01:40:31.260 It's fine.

01:40:32.160 Kids bounce.

01:40:32.800 Anyway, if you don't like cleaning out your gutters, get the new leaf filter from leaf home gutters.

01:41:09.520 10 seconds, station ID.

01:41:11.000 All right, Stu, welcome to the program.

01:41:25.100 Have a great program so far because you haven't joined in, but.

01:41:29.600 Try to avoid it as much as possible, but yeah, it's been fantastic.

01:41:32.400 The parts I've heard.

01:41:33.340 Yeah.

01:41:36.100 You've been sitting there the whole time.

01:41:37.500 You haven't been listening the whole time.

01:41:39.340 There's all sorts of other good shows that are on this time of day, so I've just been checking those out.

01:41:44.580 Right.

01:41:45.180 You know, but all right.

01:41:46.880 Well, is there anything that we've missed so far?

01:41:48.740 Yes.

01:41:49.100 You're like my favorite story of the day.

01:41:51.860 What is it?

01:41:52.500 RFK Jr. ate a dog.

01:41:55.160 Why aren't we talking about this?

01:41:56.780 I want to talk about RFK Jr. eating canines.

01:42:01.040 Okay, well, he did it in Asia.

01:42:04.960 Oh, well, there's a great excuse.

01:42:07.420 Well, no, I mean, it's not like he is out for Fluffy in the, you know, in your neighborhood

01:42:14.720 at night.

01:42:15.380 Well, I would say that about you, Glenn.

01:42:17.800 I would say that about you.

01:42:18.540 Glenn Beck is not going to go kill Fluffy in the middle of the night.

01:42:21.240 Why would I do that?

01:42:21.980 One indication is you've never eaten a dog.

01:42:24.400 You can say the same thing about myself.

01:42:25.800 I've never eaten a dog, so you could probably trust me around your dog.

01:42:28.940 Can you trust RFK Jr. around your dog?

01:42:31.240 Because he apparently was eating dogs all over the world.

01:42:36.520 He's got pictures of himself with a barbecued dog.

01:42:40.580 Now, this is not a picture he released, of course, mind you, but he apparently did this.

01:42:46.820 And shockingly, Glenn, it was the same year they found a dead worm in his brain, which

01:42:53.540 I, who would have seen that coming?

01:42:56.280 I don't know how it could have occurred.

01:42:58.140 So wait a minute, you're tying together a worm that he might have gotten while eating

01:43:03.820 dogs?

01:43:04.820 I'm not a scientist here.

01:43:06.760 Right, okay.

01:43:07.680 But yes, I'm tying those two things in.

01:43:10.800 I also love that he also had to have, his sister actually had to cut his comments from

01:43:19.720 an environmental documentary because they were just wrong.

01:43:23.660 Now, think about this. 0.96

01:43:24.620 This is a movie made by his sister, who's also a crazy liberal, talking about crazy liberal

01:43:32.060 environmental policies, and he was so wrong, they had to cut his comments out of the documentary.

01:43:39.040 What could that have possibly been? 0.58

01:43:41.420 Because he says crazy ass stuff about global warming all the time. 0.89

01:43:46.760 All the time. 0.94

01:43:47.900 And I don't know, how do you feel about asking a nanny to rub lotion on you?

01:43:52.820 Have you done that, Glenn?

01:43:53.740 How many times have you done it?

01:43:54.700 When you were eating dog, did you go and ask your nanny for lotion to be rubbed on you?

01:43:59.200 No, I have asked my dog to rub lotion on me, and it turned out to be barbecue sauce, which

01:44:04.680 then freaked me out a little bit.

01:44:06.640 You know what I mean?

01:44:07.480 Yeah.

01:44:08.300 That's a story.

01:44:10.040 That's another story maybe Vanity Fair can come up with.

01:44:13.000 I will say, Christy Noem's got to be pissed, right?

01:44:15.300 Like, she wrote this book, and she had this dog store, and she's just gone, and RFK Jr.

01:44:18.940 gets to eat dogs, and apparently he's going to get 10% of the vote, which is really unfair

01:44:26.720 when you think about it.

01:44:29.260 This guy is, and it, of course, doesn't even talk about all of his womanizing and all of

01:44:35.020 the other things that he's done.

01:44:37.540 The fact that he's being considered as a candidate, because I, look, you might like a viewpoint

01:44:42.840 or two of his, but it is amazing that this man is being considered a serious candidate.

01:44:50.060 I know he's not going to win, but I mean, he may be the highest third-party candidate

01:44:54.140 since Ross Perot.

01:44:55.220 Although, the picture of the barbecued dog in his hand may, may dent that just a tad.

01:45:03.400 Yeah, he's not going to do well with the, you know, the liberal animal lovers, the ones

01:45:07.480 that are like, you've got to set him free.

01:45:09.080 He's eating the dog.

01:45:11.320 And then all of the hunters and everybody else who just love dogs, you know, real people

01:45:16.120 that love real dogs.

01:45:17.660 Now, you're eating cat.

01:45:19.140 Have at it.

01:45:19.900 Have at it.

01:45:20.400 I don't want to eat one.

01:45:21.480 But if you want to eat the cat, you could eat every cat on the planet of any size.

01:45:26.480 Eat them.

01:45:27.240 Eat them.

01:45:27.720 Really?

01:45:28.700 Yes.

01:45:29.100 You're not just saying this to intentionally piss off cat owners like you do once or twice

01:45:33.380 a month.

01:45:34.500 Oh, my gosh.

01:45:35.400 Why would you say that?

01:45:36.900 I just thought.

01:45:37.340 Are you saying that cat owners are so, so mealy-mouthed and so wishy-washy and can't really

01:45:45.480 handle a joke about cats?

01:45:47.040 Is that what you're saying?

01:45:47.880 I'm not saying that.

01:45:48.840 It seems to be what you're saying, though.

01:45:50.820 No, no.

01:45:52.180 I'm not saying that.

01:45:53.120 I'm just saying I think we should try maybe a new American, you know, thing. 0.98

01:45:58.600 We can make hot dogs out of cats.

01:46:00.360 I'm just throwing it out there.

01:46:03.300 Throwing it out there.

01:46:04.700 But there's no pictures of me doing it.

01:46:07.320 Yeah.

01:46:07.740 There's no pictures of me eating cats like there are apparently of RFK eating dogs.

01:46:13.640 America's best friend.

01:46:15.980 Man.

01:46:16.900 Back.

01:46:18.160 Fitz.

01:46:19.560 Oh, my gosh.

01:46:20.820 Did he put some rough greens on that?

01:46:23.740 Let me tell you about Good Ranchers.

01:46:25.160 Now, Good Ranchers does not sell dog.

01:46:28.040 They don't.

01:46:29.320 Nope.

01:46:30.000 Nope.

01:46:30.340 They don't.

01:46:31.120 And this American 4th of July, why don't you sink your teeth into 100% American beef,

01:46:37.420 chicken, pork, seafood?

01:46:40.600 What is your traditional 4th of July?

01:46:42.420 Do you have a barbecue, Stu?

01:46:44.040 Yeah.

01:46:45.500 What do you have?

01:46:47.100 What do I have?

01:46:48.120 I'm a big fan of mac and cheese.

01:46:50.280 It's my barbecue.

01:46:50.720 Yeah, no, not you.

01:46:51.660 You're not an American. 0.99

01:46:52.920 You're a Canadian sports hero.

01:46:54.360 I don't even want to hear about it.

01:46:55.240 I mean, what do you grill for others that are coming?

01:46:57.700 Oh, you're asking if I do the work?

01:47:00.060 No, I don't.

01:47:00.760 We go over to other people's houses and they eat whatever they make.

01:47:02.920 Oh, my gosh.

01:47:05.120 You just hold on to anybody's coattails for a free ride, don't you?

01:47:09.660 My gosh, it's sick.

01:47:12.820 Good Ranchers, get American meat and get it like you've not had it before.

01:47:19.000 It is so good.

01:47:37.440 BlazeTV.

01:47:50.880 Well, it looks like Trump has asked for his verdict to be overturned because of the Supreme Court ruling. 0.96

01:47:56.800 And the crooked judge, judge crooked, always crooked, always bit crooked. 0.88

01:48:02.720 The crooked judge has said he's delaying sentencing while he investigates. 0.79

01:48:09.100 So we should see, you know, he's not going to he's not going to overturn himself because of that.

01:48:15.220 But, but it it is slowing that process down.

01:48:21.420 And that's probably the greatest gift that will keep on giving for Donald Trump until he can until he can win.

01:48:27.440 There's a couple of stories out that I think I think are very important here.

01:48:34.600 Yeah.

01:48:35.440 Glenn, one of them ties to what you're just talking about.

01:48:38.140 Donald Trump, obviously, one of the candidates in the presidential election coming up in November.

01:48:43.100 Another candidate is RFK Jr. who ate a dog.

01:48:47.140 You just said this.

01:48:48.840 We know.

01:48:49.680 No, he ate a dog.

01:48:50.760 Wait, but did I say that he consumed a canine?

01:48:53.800 Did I say, did I point that part of it out?

01:48:55.360 No, not in those words.

01:48:56.680 No, but eating a dog is pretty much the same.

01:48:59.420 You love this story.

01:49:00.920 By the way, you know when he texted this photo, you know why this is out right now?

01:49:04.380 No.

01:49:04.700 Just to show you his judgment.

01:49:06.240 He texted this photo last year in 2023.

01:49:11.940 The picture is a little old, but he actually texted it.

01:49:14.800 Why?

01:49:15.320 Well, I think who he texted it to was someone who we believe was a friend and a Democrat

01:49:19.300 who now does not want him to be president.

01:49:21.360 That's my guess.

01:49:22.040 Oh, my gosh, man.

01:49:23.540 Yeah.

01:49:24.280 But, you know, he ate a dog, Glenn, and this caused potentially a tapeworm that ate part of

01:49:31.800 his brain.

01:49:32.900 Now, you know, people say we don't pick our best as nominees for president, but, you know,

01:49:37.360 I think this stands in the face of that.

01:49:39.440 Right.

01:49:39.720 And we haven't ever had a president whose part of his brain was eaten by a tapeworm.

01:49:46.620 That is true.

01:49:47.620 I mean, that's equity, diversity.

01:49:50.080 That is a problem with what he himself has described as a protracted brain fog, which

01:49:56.420 is exactly what you want out of your president.

01:49:58.400 We just saw it on the debate stage the other night.

01:50:00.660 Protracted brain fog.

01:50:03.260 Right.

01:50:03.640 And that's because of the worm?

01:50:05.360 Well, there's a little bit of controversy on that one, because that's what I think.

01:50:09.140 That's what RFK Jr. says the cause is.

01:50:12.980 The family.

01:50:13.880 Let me just read the quote.

01:50:15.860 Because he said the tape.

01:50:17.240 This is a quote from the article.

01:50:19.080 He said the tapeworm consumed a portion of his brain and led to a protracted brain fog.

01:50:23.880 But more often, his family points to Kennedy's 14 years as a heroin user.

01:50:32.380 Now, I.

01:50:35.100 Wow.

01:50:35.740 I have never tried heroin.

01:50:37.600 And I have to admit, Glenn, maybe you have some experience in this area, but.

01:50:40.880 No.

01:50:41.320 No.

01:50:41.640 Never tried it.

01:50:42.440 I feel like, you know, who lives through 14 years of heroin use?

01:50:47.840 Is that a thing?

01:50:48.440 I don't know.

01:50:49.480 I don't know.

01:50:50.600 I don't know heroin users.

01:50:52.320 Maybe because they all die.

01:50:53.940 Yeah.

01:50:54.280 But I don't know.

01:50:55.940 I don't know.

01:50:56.560 14 years.

01:50:57.320 You know, that's left out on his resume.

01:51:00.660 Well, that and eating dogs.

01:51:02.380 Yeah.

01:51:02.620 Because I don't know if people know this.

01:51:03.620 He actually ate a dog.

01:51:06.000 Which gave him the tapeworm.

01:51:08.740 Which gave him the brain fog.

01:51:10.920 Which was probably actually caused by heroin use.

01:51:13.640 Right.

01:51:14.140 Which also, the dog eating probably was also brought on by the heroin use.

01:51:20.600 Yeah.

01:51:20.780 At some point, really, it kind of kicked in, dog.

01:51:23.520 Yeah.

01:51:23.900 That's true.

01:51:24.400 That's a good point.

01:51:25.640 Although, it does sort of, I mean, when you talk about a brain fog, if you think too much

01:51:30.860 about the dog that he ate, it might derail you from the fact that he kept a journal of all

01:51:38.580 the women he slept with while cheating on his wife that his wife later found and killed 0.68

01:51:43.440 herself.

01:51:44.060 That usually is something that's a little bit hidden.

01:51:48.120 Well, that's a novel happening there.

01:51:51.760 Yeah.

01:51:52.600 And a movie.

01:51:53.660 You know, a movie would be a good place for him to be.

01:51:56.360 The White House?

01:51:57.200 Not a good place for him to be.

01:51:58.960 Okay.

01:52:01.900 The transition from gas-powered automobiles to electric vehicles has been, you know, a

01:52:07.860 little slow.

01:52:08.440 A little slow.

01:52:10.020 And there's a new problem with the EV charging stations now.

01:52:14.320 You know, most people drive electric cars.

01:52:16.660 About 60% of them say they'd give their right arm to go back to a gasoline car.

01:52:21.040 But, you know, don't worry about that.

01:52:22.680 Don't worry about that.

01:52:24.120 They're expensive.

01:52:25.260 Don't worry about that.

01:52:26.120 They're unreliable.

01:52:26.960 Don't worry about that.

01:52:27.840 But they're environmentally friendly.

01:52:29.960 Well, not really.

01:52:31.300 Not really.

01:52:32.000 It takes more CO2 to make the car than it does a gasoline car.

01:52:40.260 And then, you know, you're charging it up using electricity.

01:52:43.480 And that electricity is coming from, oh, I don't know, where?

01:52:47.340 Where?

01:52:47.900 So, here's the latest problems.

01:52:53.540 Apparently, the problem is the power supply.

01:52:59.740 We don't have the power to be able to charge all of these.

01:53:03.440 It's just something that, you know, they didn't notice at the beginning when they were in.

01:53:08.800 They were like, you know, well, but we're going to build half a million charging stations.

01:53:12.120 Yeah, but they've only built seven of them so far.

01:53:16.720 Out of the half million, seven.

01:53:19.820 So, that's kind of a problem.

01:53:23.680 Eighty-four percent of fleet owners draw their grid power from a utility.

01:53:31.300 So, there's not a lot of solar panels or anything else that are helping.

01:53:35.160 Hang on just a second.

01:53:35.980 We have, who is this on the phone?

01:53:38.700 Hi, it's Bill calling from San Diego.

01:53:40.180 How are you?

01:53:41.220 Hi, Bill.

01:53:41.820 San Diego.

01:53:42.320 You were talking about electric cars.

01:53:44.580 I'm a Tesla owner.

01:53:46.140 And it does have some of its drawbacks.

01:53:48.000 But generally speaking, I like the automobile.

01:53:50.440 One of the aspects I do enjoy about it is the auto drive feature,

01:53:54.380 which allows me to read articles like about how RFK ate a dog.

01:53:59.340 This is very interesting.

01:54:03.840 I was going down the highway at 75 miles an hour

01:54:06.560 and learned that RFK Jr. had been on a heroin for 14 years.

01:54:11.480 Yeah, yeah.

01:54:12.040 And it had a battle.

01:54:12.900 I think the heroin had a battle,

01:54:14.580 like a civil war inside his brain with a tapeworm,

01:54:17.620 and the heroin won.

01:54:19.220 So, I thought that was interesting as a Tesla owner.

01:54:21.200 Thank you very, very, very, very much.

01:54:23.480 A satisfied Tesla owner.

01:54:25.380 By the way, they're saying that we're going to need,

01:54:27.160 if we're driving electric cars,

01:54:31.260 that we're going to need 3,360% more electricity

01:54:36.180 just to hit the Biden EV goals.

01:54:39.520 Now, that doesn't include all the electricity for AI

01:54:42.780 and all that stuff that's coming up.

01:54:45.080 A couple of other stories.

01:54:47.180 Now, Stu, would you be surprised if I said

01:54:50.380 the New York Times just ran a story

01:54:52.700 where their headline is,

01:54:54.340 France's far right is bad.

01:54:58.360 That's the actual headline?

01:55:00.080 That's the actual headline.

01:55:01.260 France's far right is bad?

01:55:03.640 Bad, yes.

01:55:04.840 Wow, that is the level of analysis we've stood.

01:55:07.500 We are in idiocracy, aren't we?

01:55:09.280 This has actually happened.

01:55:11.000 We've gone a step further,

01:55:12.980 but not as bad as MAGA.

01:55:15.980 So, it's bad.

01:55:17.580 But not as bad as MAGA.

01:55:19.100 Not as bad as MAGA.

01:55:20.380 Yeah, we're going to go into that

01:55:21.640 a little bit on tomorrow's program.

01:55:24.920 Another breaking story,

01:55:26.540 and this is going to be,

01:55:27.640 this is going to take you by surprise.

01:55:31.740 Numerous files of very disturbing child abuse

01:55:35.000 and child pornography

01:55:36.360 were found in the possession

01:55:39.140 of a member of the Idaho chapter

01:55:41.800 of the Satanic Temple.

01:55:45.040 Apparently, he's pled guilty.

01:55:46.840 Good job, Valley County Sheriff's Office.

01:55:49.600 They began investigating him,

01:55:52.560 and apparently,

01:55:55.060 I mean, I'm sure he's still a member

01:55:56.800 in good standing at the Satanic Temple,

01:55:58.920 but he's on his way to prison here shortly.

01:56:03.500 Also, July 4th cookout, record high.

01:56:07.620 Record high.

01:56:08.220 And found that you could feed 10 people

01:56:12.520 cheeseburgers, chicken breast,

01:56:14.360 pork chops, homemade potato salad,

01:56:16.540 strawberries, and ice cream.

01:56:18.440 And it's 71, 71,

01:56:22.020 who do we have on the phone now?

01:56:24.560 Hello?

01:56:25.320 Hello, my name is Daniel Coyne from Los Angeles.

01:56:28.620 Just want to say,

01:56:29.840 listening to your commentary about inflation,

01:56:31.880 it's really hitting families across the country,

01:56:34.460 especially this July 4th.

01:56:37.680 And, you know,

01:56:39.140 you read the cost of barbecue on 4th of July

01:56:43.660 really is skyrocketing right now.

01:56:45.820 One way to drop that cost is to eat dogs.

01:56:50.820 If you just consume your family pet,

01:56:55.060 like RMK Jr.,

01:56:57.460 you're able to just really bring it down,

01:57:00.400 let you get lots of potato salad.

01:57:02.200 But I'm sorry,

01:57:03.080 because you don't spend anything on a sink

01:57:05.600 or hot ties or anything.

01:57:07.240 You just,

01:57:08.040 you go right,

01:57:09.260 right to fluffy,

01:57:11.120 and you just throw,

01:57:12.660 throw fluffy right on the grill. 1.00

01:57:16.200 You can put it on a spigot

01:57:17.500 if you've got a rotisserie,

01:57:18.940 you're in the really evening cooking.

01:57:20.900 There's nothing like a good paw.

01:57:24.540 You just,

01:57:25.020 you just crunch on it

01:57:27.120 while you throw it back a Bud Light.

01:57:28.820 Right.

01:57:30.040 So,

01:57:30.760 happy 4th of July,

01:57:32.340 America.

01:57:32.920 Vote RFP Jr.

01:57:34.920 Thank you very much.

01:57:36.200 Back in just a second.

01:57:37.960 Oh my gosh.

01:57:51.860 I don't know,

01:57:52.360 a couple thousand,

01:57:53.120 maybe 3,000 agents around the country.

01:57:55.780 They don't work for me.

01:57:57.380 We just monitor them.

01:57:58.720 We went out

01:57:59.440 and we started doing a search

01:58:00.900 for the real estate agents

01:58:03.080 that have the best track records

01:58:18.840 They have the best business practices

01:58:21.260 and they're good people.

01:58:22.300 So we put them through everything

01:58:24.980 but a rectal exam

01:58:26.060 and that may be coming.

01:58:27.100 I don't,

01:58:27.440 I don't know.

01:58:28.620 John Wells is a guy

01:58:29.660 who interviews everybody

01:58:30.840 and it's like,

01:58:31.680 he is serious.

01:58:54.380 Among the dystopian ruins

01:58:55.940 of what was once

01:58:56.880 the United States of America,

01:58:59.080 two teenagers find themselves

01:59:00.720 on the wrong side

01:59:01.760 of the most powerful corporation

01:59:03.500 the world has ever seen.

01:59:06.740 They have one chance

01:59:08.380 to start a new life,

01:59:10.060 but it may cost them everything.

01:59:13.380 Chasing Embers,

01:59:14.640 Glenn Beck's first ever

01:59:16.040 young adult fiction novel.

01:59:17.940 Coming July 23rd.

01:59:19.520 Available for pre-order

01:59:20.820 at glennbeck.com now.

01:59:24.340 The previous content

01:59:25.880 identified as

01:59:26.820 conservative.

01:59:29.220 Oh my.

01:59:31.340 The Glenn Beck program

01:59:32.700 will be right back.

01:59:35.020 So I've just,

01:59:48.340 you know,

01:59:48.640 back to that

01:59:49.360 cookout cost.

01:59:51.340 Wasn't it Joe Biden

01:59:52.400 that said,

01:59:53.020 I think in 2021,

01:59:54.040 that you've,

01:59:55.580 you're saving money,

01:59:56.360 you're saving like 14 cents

01:59:57.840 or five cents

01:59:58.740 this 4th of July,

02:00:00.680 and so it's never been cheaper.

02:00:01.940 And we all went,

02:00:02.880 what?

02:00:03.400 Of course it's more expensive.

02:00:06.360 We now find that it is

02:00:08.240 the latest from a new report

02:00:10.520 from the American Farm Bureau

02:00:11.900 Federation.

02:00:13.140 Says this,

02:00:14.300 there is 5% increase

02:00:16.120 from last year,

02:00:17.620 almost 30% increase

02:00:19.320 from five years ago,

02:00:20.580 and it's a record high.

02:00:21.800 when Joe Biden

02:00:23.620 had his first,

02:00:24.600 you know,

02:00:24.900 just game-changing

02:00:26.020 14 cents savings,

02:00:28.060 it was,

02:00:29.480 I think,

02:00:29.660 $51

02:00:30.220 for,

02:00:31.780 you know,

02:00:32.160 the average picnic

02:00:33.500 for 10.

02:00:34.320 Now it is $71.

02:00:36.640 Oh my God.

02:00:38.140 The report found

02:00:39.320 that two pounds 0.87

02:00:40.000 of ground beef

02:00:40.660 now cost $12.77

02:00:42.140 on average,

02:00:43.120 an 11% increase

02:00:44.660 from last year.

02:00:45.980 Gee,

02:00:46.100 I wonder why

02:00:46.560 price of beef

02:00:47.680 is going up,

02:00:48.400 Stu.

02:00:49.260 One half gallon

02:00:50.260 of ice cream

02:00:50.860 now cost $5.65

02:00:53.140 up 7%.

02:00:54.900 Cost of lemonade

02:00:56.500 has increased

02:00:57.320 by 12%.

02:00:58.740 And pork chops

02:01:00.600 and potato chips

02:01:01.380 have also increased

02:01:02.740 by 8%.

02:01:04.120 So,

02:01:05.800 that's good.

02:01:06.760 That's good.

02:01:07.300 I think we're

02:01:07.800 on the right track,

02:01:08.540 America.

02:01:08.960 And we shouldn't forget

02:01:10.060 how much they bragged

02:01:11.860 about that,

02:01:12.640 whatever it was,

02:01:13.380 14 cents savings.

02:01:15.140 Like,

02:01:15.260 it was like a big deal.

02:01:16.780 They, like,

02:01:17.200 Kareem Jean-Pierre

02:01:18.080 came out

02:01:18.640 and presented it

02:01:19.580 to the media

02:01:20.440 and fawned over herself 1.00

02:01:22.180 for what a wonderful

02:01:22.980 job they were doing.

02:01:24.040 She said

02:01:24.480 it was proof

02:01:25.580 of Bidenomics

02:01:26.520 working.

02:01:28.040 Mm-hmm.

02:01:29.220 Mm-hmm.

02:01:30.380 The Harvard

02:01:31.380 Caps-Harris poll

02:01:32.600 found Trump

02:01:33.460 heavily favored

02:01:34.380 to win the election,

02:01:35.920 soaring 6%

02:01:37.420 after the latest

02:01:39.000 debate.

02:01:41.140 When asked,

02:01:42.560 52% of poll respondents

02:01:44.800 said Trump won

02:01:45.680 the debate.

02:01:46.480 22% said Biden won.

02:01:48.120 The rest,

02:01:48.700 26% said they were

02:01:49.600 unsure

02:01:49.940 or didn't know

02:01:50.520 who won.

02:01:51.040 I want to meet

02:01:51.700 those 26% 0.95

02:01:52.820 and then take them

02:01:54.460 into an island

02:01:55.320 where they can live

02:01:56.180 by themselves.

02:01:57.420 When asked

02:01:58.080 who they would

02:01:58.560 support for president,

02:01:59.640 47% said

02:02:00.860 they would support

02:02:01.420 Trump.

02:02:01.960 41% said

02:02:02.940 they would support

02:02:03.620 Biden.

02:02:04.440 You know,

02:02:04.680 the thing that's

02:02:05.080 going to happen

02:02:05.480 is there's just

02:02:06.060 not going to be

02:02:06.520 any passion

02:02:07.100 behind Biden.

02:02:09.180 I mean,

02:02:09.660 who's going to

02:02:09.980 go out and vote

02:02:10.480 for him?

02:02:10.740 You may not

02:02:11.100 vote for Trump,

02:02:11.700 but who's going

02:02:12.060 to go out

02:02:12.320 and vote for him?

02:02:12.980 You're going to

02:02:13.320 cross the street

02:02:14.080 to vote for him?

02:02:15.620 Yeah,

02:02:15.820 and again,

02:02:16.480 how do you

02:02:17.320 get him off 0.99

02:02:17.760 the ticket?

02:02:18.400 You know,

02:02:18.620 the other thing

02:02:19.400 too is like

02:02:19.880 I think that's

02:02:22.020 the truth.

02:02:23.620 It's not to say

02:02:24.500 that they won't

02:02:25.180 find a way

02:02:26.020 if they really

02:02:26.660 want to

02:02:27.140 because

02:02:27.640 they also

02:02:28.920 can't just

02:02:29.680 give $500

02:02:30.360 billion in

02:02:31.260 student loans

02:02:31.840 away.

02:02:32.260 So,

02:02:32.440 I mean,

02:02:32.620 like they

02:02:32.880 kind of

02:02:33.300 find ways

02:02:34.000 to do

02:02:34.320 these things

02:02:34.780 at times,

02:02:35.240 but like one

02:02:36.180 of the big

02:02:36.620 issues would

02:02:37.080 be campaign

02:02:37.560 finance,

02:02:38.220 which by the

02:02:38.880 way,

02:02:39.060 they passed

02:02:39.660 all these

02:02:40.000 laws on

02:02:40.520 campaign

02:02:40.760 finance

02:02:41.080 reform.

02:02:41.980 If Biden

02:02:42.520 has all

02:02:43.040 this money

02:02:43.560 in his

02:02:43.940 account,

02:02:44.520 like you

02:02:45.000 can't just

02:02:45.280 be like,

02:02:45.600 oh,

02:02:46.340 we're just

02:02:46.620 transferring

02:02:47.100 this to

02:02:47.660 Gavin.

02:02:48.780 Like,

02:02:49.020 that's not

02:02:49.480 really.

02:02:49.860 He can

02:02:50.200 transfer it

02:02:51.060 to the

02:02:52.400 DNC,

02:02:53.480 I believe.

02:02:54.080 Okay.

02:02:54.780 And I

02:02:55.140 believe he

02:02:55.920 could transfer

02:02:56.560 it to

02:02:57.420 Harris.

02:02:59.400 Okay.

02:03:00.400 Because she's

02:03:00.820 already on the

02:03:01.340 ticket in theory.

02:03:02.840 Right.

02:03:03.640 But there's

02:03:04.520 all kinds of

02:03:05.140 rules.

02:03:05.580 It can't be

02:03:06.100 used for,

02:03:07.120 I can't

02:03:07.480 remember what

02:03:08.600 it can't be

02:03:09.100 used for,

02:03:10.140 but it

02:03:11.000 will not

02:03:11.840 help him.

02:03:12.380 Transferring it

02:03:12.920 over to DNC

02:03:13.860 will not

02:03:14.480 help.

02:03:14.820 It would

02:03:16.020 help with

02:03:16.380 the house

02:03:17.160 races or

02:03:17.960 something like

02:03:18.480 they could

02:03:18.760 do other

02:03:19.400 things with

02:03:19.940 it.

02:03:20.520 But yeah,

02:03:21.020 maybe.

02:03:21.880 But they

02:03:22.580 are really

02:03:23.580 strict rules

02:03:24.280 on it and

02:03:24.820 you can't

02:03:25.400 transfer it

02:03:26.020 unless you're

02:03:26.420 on the

02:03:26.680 ticket.

02:03:27.100 So I

02:03:27.340 think that

02:03:27.820 it could

02:03:28.380 be transferred

02:03:28.880 to Harris.

02:03:30.620 And I

02:03:30.960 know we've

02:03:32.440 had this

02:03:32.780 bet going

02:03:33.320 on,

02:03:33.660 but it's

02:03:34.180 my belief

02:03:34.740 and has

02:03:35.600 been for

02:03:35.900 a long

02:03:36.140 time that

02:03:36.460 the most

02:03:36.820 likely

02:03:37.320 alternative

02:03:38.040 to Biden

02:03:38.720 is Harris.

02:03:39.560 I mean,

02:03:39.820 it sounds

02:03:40.500 crazy because

02:03:41.580 she's so 1.00

02:03:42.120 terrible,

02:03:42.500 but first

02:03:43.600 of all,

02:03:43.820 Gavin Newsom's

02:03:44.380 also terrible.

02:03:45.160 I don't know

02:03:45.460 why people

02:03:45.920 have lost

02:03:46.380 sight of

02:03:46.860 this.

02:03:47.040 I don't

02:03:47.060 know why.

02:03:48.080 And Gretchen

02:03:48.700 Whitmer, 0.99

02:03:49.320 she's awful. 0.98

02:03:50.460 Oh, 0.97

02:03:50.640 God,

02:03:51.220 she had one

02:03:53.020 good election

02:03:53.800 cycle that

02:03:54.360 was incredibly

02:03:55.180 well-timed for

02:03:56.160 her that she

02:03:57.300 did well in.

02:03:57.980 But she was a

02:03:58.660 disaster in

02:03:59.460 COVID and very

02:04:00.000 unpopular as

02:04:01.620 a governor.

02:04:02.920 She just had

02:04:03.480 one good

02:04:04.220 election cycle

02:04:04.780 where she

02:04:05.140 exceeded

02:04:05.460 expectations and

02:04:06.340 everyone's like,

02:04:06.800 well,

02:04:07.200 she's a warm

02:04:08.880 body,

02:04:09.440 which is more

02:04:10.720 than we have

02:04:11.220 to take it

02:04:11.820 now.

02:04:12.920 You want to

02:04:13.160 talk about

02:04:13.540 unpopular?

02:04:14.280 She's so

02:04:14.980 unpopular.

02:04:16.280 They couldn't

02:04:16.840 even find people

02:04:17.540 to kidnap

02:04:18.000 her.

02:04:18.240 The FBI

02:04:18.660 had to go

02:04:19.200 in and

02:04:19.560 just pretend

02:04:20.620 that they

02:04:22.360 were a

02:04:23.300 kidnapping

02:04:23.740 force.

02:04:24.700 I mean,

02:04:24.900 she's that

02:04:25.520 unpopular.

02:04:26.740 Yes,

02:04:27.160 you could make

02:04:27.580 fun of her.

02:04:28.600 She's not a 1.00

02:04:29.260 great candidate,

02:04:29.980 but what I will

02:04:30.400 say about her

02:04:30.860 is she's never

02:04:31.420 eaten a dog.

02:04:35.600 Not once.

02:04:36.540 We will

02:04:38.620 see you

02:04:39.200 tomorrow.

02:04:40.760 Stay safe

02:04:41.580 and may God

02:04:42.340 save the

02:04:42.940 Republic.
