The Glenn Beck Program - Take the Keys from Impaired Politicians Driving the Country! ｜ Guests： Kimberly Hermann & Chad Robichaux ｜ 8⧸31⧸23

00:00:00.000 We've got no room to compromise

00:00:15.100 We've got to stand together, it's the course of life

00:00:20.860 Stand up and say it'll hold the light

00:00:26.160 It's a new day I'm trying to raise

00:00:32.400 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:00:41.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:47.260 Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:49.960 We're glad you're here.

00:00:51.360 There is, there's something miraculous happening.

00:00:56.740 Truly miraculous.

00:00:58.740 And it happened on the Joe Rogan show.

00:01:03.520 Yeah.

00:01:05.140 60 seconds will take you there.

00:01:07.520 Good sleep is one of the key ingredients to a successful day.

00:01:10.480 If you're not getting good sleep regularly, your whole day can end up feeling like a never-ending schlog through thick mud.

00:01:17.560 Wouldn't it be nice just to be able to relax when your head hits the pillow at night?

00:01:21.580 Just so you can just slow down.

00:01:23.380 You don't want to take stuff that makes you sleepy and drowsy because it's, that's a drug and it just whacks you out the next day.

00:01:31.360 Here's something you can take 100% drug free.

00:01:35.640 It's a blend of natural ingredients designed to promote healthy sleep by reducing anxiety and distress and improving mood and promoting relaxation.

00:01:45.240 It's called Relief Factor Sleep.

00:01:47.960 Relief Factor Sleep.

00:01:49.260 Your first bottle is $19.95, $20 to get a feeling of great relaxation and contentment as you drift away into sleep and feel refreshed and rejuvenated the very next morning.

00:02:00.900 Unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800-4-RELIEF.

00:02:04.540 800-4-RELIEF.

00:02:06.600 It's Relief Factor Sleep at relieffactor.com.

00:02:10.900 Dream big and sleep tight.

00:02:12.720 I want to talk to you here about something that Billy Graham told me about five years before he died.

00:02:21.860 We became friends at the end of his life.

00:02:25.460 And I so admired him.

00:02:28.740 And at one point, I said, Billy, where are the people that are going to step up?

00:02:36.680 Where's the next George Washington, Abraham Lincoln?

00:02:39.540 Where's the next Billy Graham?

00:02:41.440 And he smiled and he said, God is tired of people like me getting credit for his work.

00:02:48.920 He said, it's not going to work this way this time.

00:02:52.400 He said, this time, people who are just regular people are going to do something that they may think is small and insignificant.

00:03:06.640 And they may not even understand it, but they feel compelled that they're supposed to do this one thing.

00:03:13.340 And they'll argue in their own head, say, that doesn't make any sense.

00:03:16.500 Why would I do that?

00:03:18.260 That's not going to change anything.

00:03:19.820 And he said, and if everybody who hears what they're supposed to do and does just that, nothing more, nothing less, just that, and remains faithful, he said, the lights will come on and you'll see a mosaic that God is working and everyone on earth will know.

00:03:41.000 Only the God of Abraham, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob could have done it. 0.99

00:03:44.340 That's what he told me.

00:03:45.740 It has lasted with me and I'm seeing that come to fruition right now.

00:03:52.500 Oliver Anthony was a guy who was at the end just a few weeks ago.

00:04:00.820 He was at the end sitting in his truck, weeping, completely broken.

00:04:06.900 Now he's on Joe Rogan.

00:04:11.960 He was on Joe Rogan and he's talking to Joe about the scriptures and Joe is listening.

00:04:21.500 And so are millions of Americans.

00:04:24.340 I think what Oliver Anthony just did is what our preachers are failing to do.

00:04:30.540 Our preachers, it's all gobbledygook.

00:04:36.500 It doesn't feel real to so many Americans.

00:04:40.840 But listen to this, Oliver Anthony on Joe Rogan.

00:04:45.640 I kind of had this breakdown moment and decided that I was going to let whatever ego I had go.

00:04:51.560 And just at this point, it's like I knew I didn't have much left in for me anyway.

00:04:55.240 And I wanted to serve whatever purpose it was that I was here to serve.

00:04:58.840 It's like you get this just overwhelming feeling in you.

00:05:02.240 I was just crying like a baby, just this very like warm feeling throughout me.

00:05:07.340 And that really hasn't gone away since.

00:05:11.620 Like I'm not the guy that can play in front of 12,000 people on guitar.

00:05:16.800 I would be like, I mean, I had never played a paid gig.

00:05:20.160 When we played the show at the farm market where Jamie Johnson showed up, that was my first paid gig.

00:05:24.840 Like I'm not a guy to go out and play live shows.

00:05:27.560 But I can tell you I was so like, I was just so at peace being up there.

00:05:32.720 Like it just felt like that's where I was supposed to be.

00:05:35.160 And with all of this, it has been like there's no way that Chris from six months ago could handle what's gone on the last two weeks.

00:05:41.460 But I feel just so empowered from all of it.

00:05:43.640 And I don't know, I'm telling you, like, again, I'm not I'm not anybody special.

00:05:50.180 And I'm certainly not here to preach to anybody.

00:05:51.760 But just from coming from somebody who was just really just in a really just up place, like, and I use that word just like with discretion.

00:06:00.560 But in this case, it describes like where I was like that guy found a lot of peace, like from this book and from looking at things in a different way.

00:06:09.060 Yeah, looking at things through the well, yeah, and I think for me, it was like I had been in, you know, I'd been in church growing up and I had been I'd been exposed to all that.

00:06:19.020 But I'd found a lot of a lot of theatrics and a lot of politics in church and in religion when I was younger.

00:06:27.000 And so it just immediately turned me off to it.

00:06:29.080 So if you can take us to, like, what was like the day you picked it up, what what was the feeling that you had, like what caused you to act, what what was it like when you did it?

00:06:40.560 Yeah, I mean, I'd been reading it here and there off and on.

00:06:43.480 And I had for like off and on for a long time, like because I again, I was introduced to it as a kid, but it was really just like I remember I went to the I went to the ER for everything that was going on.

00:06:59.000 I mean, I thought I was seriously going to die like I was having shooting pains up under my jaw, down in my wrist and my leg, like just cardiovascular 101 symptoms.

00:07:10.480 Of course, I'm 31. I had been like I could run four miles without stopping.

00:07:15.120 No problems. Like I knew my heart was strong, but I was just freaking out.

00:07:19.240 Yeah, but I went and did that. And I remember being in the truck after that, just like and I just yeah, I just had a breakdown moment.

00:07:26.480 I was just just crying and was just just I just felt hopeless, like like almost the way a child feels hopeless when they you know, like you can't find your parent or something like a like a four year old.

00:07:39.760 I can't find his parents or something. I was just like just didn't have anything left in me.

00:07:44.220 And hey, stop. Listen to what he's doing here.

00:07:48.360 This is a guy just weeks ago was feeling just like that just weeks ago that that's in itself a miracle.

00:07:57.800 He's a guy who has screwed up everything in his life.

00:08:03.900 He said up until he was about 30 and then things went awry.

00:08:07.980 I was the exact opposite. I was just crazy bad until I was about 30.

00:08:12.600 And then I tried to clean up my life.

00:08:14.560 And all he's doing now is he's sitting in the truck and he's completely broken.

00:08:24.740 How many of us can relate to this?

00:08:27.440 You're out of answers.

00:08:29.540 Now, listen.

00:08:30.160 I don't know. I just I just decided like right then and there I was like, I know I can't do this anymore.

00:08:37.880 And but I know I know that I can I know there's things that I need to do.

00:08:43.020 And I just I was just just told God I was like, just let me do it.

00:08:47.220 Like and I'll give all this up.

00:08:48.760 I'll give up the weed and I'll quit getting drunk and I'll quit.

00:08:51.260 I'll quit being so angry about things and I'll just like I'll just call it good.

00:08:57.440 Whatever I've done up from from up until I was 30 or whatever, 31, like we'll just call that good.

00:09:03.800 And I'll start over again and I'll make him the focus and not me.

00:09:08.480 And I just tried to tried to let my let my ego and everything that I was just let that go and just focus on.

00:09:17.180 Because because obviously, like, it's not just me.

00:09:20.580 I've seen it with even other people I know and I see it with celebrities and everything.

00:09:24.320 But I don't know. I just feel like we're in such a weird place right now in the world.

00:09:28.920 Stop for a second. What is he doing?

00:09:32.100 What's he doing right here?

00:09:34.580 This is the first step of Alcoholics Anonymous.

00:09:38.620 First step.

00:09:40.420 I give up.

00:09:42.080 I can't do it.

00:09:43.640 I completely give up.

00:09:45.300 God, I give it all to you.

00:09:46.820 I'll just we'll just call it start fresh.

00:09:50.780 That is without him knowing it.

00:09:53.080 That is the first step.

00:09:55.400 You cannot heal yourself until you get there.

00:10:01.840 This is the problem with our nation.

00:10:04.460 You can't fix it until we get there.

00:10:10.000 Lord, I give up.

00:10:11.380 I give up.

00:10:12.100 We've tried everything.

00:10:13.260 We've tried everything.

00:10:14.540 Everything we do seems to make it worse.

00:10:19.800 We've tried this.

00:10:21.260 We've tried this.

00:10:22.540 The only thing we haven't tried is humbling ourselves.

00:10:27.140 See, this is this is why humility is so important, because without humility, you can't get to where he is, which is completely broken.

00:10:39.600 Luckily, for me as an alcoholic, and unfortunately for my mom, who was an alcoholic, my mother's bottom was death. 0.98

00:10:51.140 She didn't have a place that was bad enough to break her until death.

00:10:58.240 I'm grateful that that wasn't my bottom line, and I've wondered for a long time.

00:11:05.760 Is that the bottom line for our country?

00:11:09.480 Is our country?

00:11:13.220 Are we so arrogant that we'll let it die before we say, okay, I give up?

00:11:22.300 I give up.

00:11:23.100 I just I just want peace in my life.

00:11:25.860 I just I want to be a decent person.

00:11:29.200 We want to be a good country, but we obviously don't know how to do it.

00:11:34.820 Now, listen to what he's about to do.

00:11:38.320 The next step.

00:11:40.160 Listen to this.

00:11:41.980 I feel like God's working through inadvertently through certain people to get to get his point across.

00:11:48.140 He is.

00:11:48.420 So take me to what what you did.

00:11:52.100 Did you start reading the Bible?

00:11:53.580 Like, what did you do?

00:11:55.300 I just changed my perspective.

00:11:59.480 You change.

00:12:00.520 I quit worrying about me, and I started worrying about what what it is that I'm supposed to do.

00:12:05.160 You know, like it talks in the Bible about about being a servant and, you know, giving up, I guess, my desire and my will and whatever it is that I that I want to do.

00:12:15.740 Like, I don't I don't know the best way to describe it, but it's about it's about trying to use what I have as a tool versus doing what I can in the moment to give what give myself whatever satisfaction that it is I'm trying to get.

00:12:30.740 You know, it's about letting trying to let go of your ego, I guess, in a way.

00:12:35.080 Hmm.

00:12:37.220 And I mean, people people pursue that mentality without faith.

00:12:42.300 I mean, it's the idea of there being something bigger than you.

00:12:44.860 But I think inherently all human beings idolize something like it talks in the Bible about false idols.

00:12:51.680 We all have false idols, like whether it's our phone or it's a celebrity or it's something we do or it's our addiction to food or drugs or whatever.

00:13:00.280 But like, it's very difficult for a human to be the biggest thing on their hierarchy.

00:13:05.080 There's always something above us.

00:13:06.420 Right.

00:13:06.640 Because we're always in pursuit of something bigger than whatever it is in that moment.

00:13:10.240 And I think for me, it was just about taking everything else, all the distractions and all the other things in my life away and just ensuring that at least. 0.96

00:13:18.760 And look, I'm we're all we're all we all sin and we all do stupid things like we're all just people. 0.80

00:13:25.160 Nobody's special or righteous. 0.86

00:13:26.600 People sometimes act like they're special and righteous, but we're all just the same thing.

00:13:29.940 Like, but it's just about trying to make that make that my idol, make make make God and the concept of what it is that he wants done on this earth.

00:13:40.220 My idol versus anything else.

00:13:42.100 Stop.

00:13:43.860 He's just completed the first two steps.

00:13:48.780 Step one, admit you're powerless over alcohol or whatever else it is and that your lives are unmanageable.

00:13:58.100 That's the first thing you have to do.

00:13:59.940 My life is completely out of control.

00:14:02.180 I've tried everything.

00:14:03.380 I'm broken.

00:14:04.760 I'm crying in my truck.

00:14:07.820 I can't do it.

00:14:09.560 I'm powerless over this.

00:14:11.020 I can't stop it.

00:14:13.380 Second step.

00:14:16.340 We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

00:14:23.720 He's saying there is a God.

00:14:26.600 There is a God.

00:14:27.680 And, and I've, I've followed other gods and all of these other gods are false.

00:14:34.240 They've only played into my problem because they feed my ego and what I want.

00:14:39.760 And only thing, only thing that is above humans is God.

00:14:45.600 And so I am powerless over my problem and my life is, is out of control and only a power greater than me can restore us to stand to sanity.

00:15:00.020 First two steps.

00:15:03.020 First two steps.

00:15:06.580 Now I'm going to take a one minute break and come back and show you he's completed the third step.

00:15:12.540 This is the fastest.

00:15:15.160 This is why AA works because it's, it's so obvious.

00:15:22.060 It's natural.

00:15:23.760 It's natural how it works.

00:15:26.020 When he gets to the fourth step, that's where trouble sets in.

00:15:32.460 But I want you to listen to the third in 60 seconds.

00:15:37.060 Tragic statistic.

00:15:39.300 Recent study of hundreds of post-abortive women found that 60% of them would have preferred to give birth.

00:15:46.060 60%.

00:15:48.140 Can you even begin to comprehend that?

00:15:53.160 How many women are just horribly scarred? 1.00

00:15:56.640 If they received more support from others or had a little more financial security, they would have given birth.

00:16:06.260 This is where pre-born steps in.

00:16:08.440 They're here for women during their darkest hour when deciding between life and death for their child.

00:16:13.900 But they're also there for them afterward.

00:16:17.860 Giving a woman a free ultrasound increases her chance to save the baby, doubling the chance she'll choose life.

00:16:24.600 And when she does, pre-born is there to help her for up to two years in additional support.

00:16:30.480 When you support pre-born, you not only support women, you empower them and you save lives.

00:16:36.260 Your donation of $28 will help a woman make a choice that she won't have to regret the rest of her life.

00:16:41.980 And it gives her the ultimate blessing, life.

00:16:45.280 Your love can save a life.

00:16:47.320 Dial pound 250 on your cell and just say the keyword baby.

00:16:51.860 Pound 250, keyword baby.

00:16:53.420 Pre-born.com slash back.

00:16:56.420 Pre-born.com slash back or pound 250, keyword baby.

00:17:00.380 Sponsored by Pre-born.

00:17:01.720 10 seconds, station ID.

00:17:13.560 Okay, so the third step.

00:17:15.760 Let's see if he makes it.

00:17:16.940 Like we all serve, we all serve some master whether we realize it or not.

00:17:21.100 So why not let it be the master that is above all?

00:17:24.700 And so when you made this transformation in your mind, did you then start reading scripture like regularly?

00:17:31.160 Like what did you start doing?

00:17:32.140 Yeah, well, it was different.

00:17:33.140 Well, what really, I guess it's like now I don't read it.

00:17:36.740 I don't read it because I feel like I should read it.

00:17:39.060 To be a better person, it's like now I try to read it for the guidance within it.

00:17:43.200 And I'm still in the infancy stages of a lot of this.

00:17:45.560 Like I've read a lot of Psalms, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes, and Luke, and there's other good books.

00:17:52.000 But just trying to, I don't know, like trying to restructure, I guess, on a granular level,

00:17:58.940 like I guess the neural pathways in my brain that have certain habits and certain ways of thought,

00:18:03.120 like I've tried to retrain that to, you know, like there's things it says,

00:18:08.320 like, and I'll be very brief with this, I promise.

00:18:11.000 But like one thing, ironically, it's Proverbs 4.20, which I thought you would like.

00:18:17.080 So if there's anything better.

00:18:18.440 Perfect.

00:18:18.840 Stop for just a second before we get to that.

00:18:21.680 He just completed the third step.

00:18:24.880 Okay.

00:18:25.120 First step, we're powerless.

00:18:27.300 Our lives are out of control and I have no power to stop it.

00:18:31.940 Second, there is a power greater than me.

00:18:35.160 There is a God, a God of your understanding, a power greater than me that will restore me to sanity.

00:18:43.000 Third step, I will turn my will and my life over the care of God as I understand him.

00:18:52.940 The first thing he said when we went back to this clip is, we all serve a master.

00:18:59.340 I just decided to serve the master, the God.

00:19:05.700 And now I'm reading scriptures.

00:19:07.960 So I get to learn his will, what he wants me to do.

00:19:13.780 Third step, made a decision to turn over our lives and our will over to the care of God as we understand him.

00:19:21.800 I'm telling you, God is working miracles.

00:19:26.580 This is why I've said, you want to save the country?

00:19:31.060 It's anyone who understands the 12 steps of AA.

00:19:34.420 It will get you there.

00:19:36.080 We need to do this as a nation.

00:19:39.660 But the fourth step is the really tough one.

00:19:42.560 Do we have time to go on to the, here's, I think he said it was Psalms 420.

00:19:49.040 Proverbs 420.

00:19:50.240 My son, pay attention to what I say.

00:19:52.740 Turn your ear to my words.

00:19:54.660 Do not let them out of your sight.

00:19:56.280 Keep them within your heart.

00:19:58.020 For they are life to those who find them and health the one's whole body.

00:20:01.580 Above all else, guard your heart.

00:20:03.540 For everything you do flows from it.

00:20:05.940 Keep your mouth free from perversity.

00:20:08.240 Keep corrupt talk far from your lips.

00:20:10.720 Let your eyes look straight ahead.

00:20:12.820 Fix your gaze directly before you.

00:20:15.120 Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.

00:20:19.020 Do not turn to the right or the left.

00:20:21.800 Keep your foot from evil.

00:20:23.960 But that's pretty big.

00:20:26.160 Yeah, it is.

00:20:27.840 Joe Rogan.

00:20:28.880 Wow, that's profound.

00:20:31.140 So listen to what he just said.

00:20:34.340 This, I think that this is the proverb that he would bring up.

00:20:40.040 Tells you everything you need to know about him and politics.

00:20:44.060 He has done everything he could to distance himself from the right and the left, mainly from the right, because those were the ones running to him with open arms going, you're one of us.

00:20:55.540 He's, I believe, being used by God.

00:21:00.360 And you're not going to make any inroads if you're Glenn Beck and your name is so associated with the right or, you know, you're Michael Moore and you're so associated with the left, whatever.

00:21:11.880 It's not going to happen.

00:21:12.780 Again, he's fixing his eyes on God, not turning to the right or the left.

00:21:19.420 And he will fulfill whatever it is he's supposed to fulfill, and he'll be shocked by it, as he already is shocked by it.

00:21:28.660 God works quickly when we are willing.

00:21:32.660 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:21:33.800 How often do you find yourself just going through the motions when it comes to feeding your dog?

00:21:38.920 Bowl is empty, grab the bag of kibble, fill her up. 0.95

00:21:42.140 Let me tell you something.

00:21:42.920 Last night, I had such a fun time with Uno feeding him.

00:21:48.360 Who wants dinner?

00:21:50.260 Who wants dinner?

00:21:51.500 And then filling it up, watching him with his nose in the bag.

00:21:55.980 Okay, okay, okay.

00:21:57.160 And then I put a couple of kibble in my hand.

00:22:00.880 He just sniffed them.

00:22:01.940 Didn't eat them.

00:22:02.540 Then I put the bowl up on the counter, and I put the rough greens on top of it, mixed it, now put it down in front of him, and he gobbled the bowl.

00:22:11.780 I love my dog.

00:22:12.960 I just love my dog.

00:22:14.760 And when you can make feeding him something fun, something that you enjoy, something that you know they're enjoying, it's just so great.

00:23:02.460 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

00:23:04.120 We're glad you're here.

00:23:06.460 We're just talking about this amazing appearance on Joe Rogan by Oliver Anthony.

00:23:12.940 Yeah, I didn't see it or hear it at all.

00:23:15.580 I had, you know, just seen some coverage of it.

00:23:18.540 And I want to give you the slightly different impression that I got without actually listening to it to the one that you received by actually listening to it.

00:23:25.780 Huh, okay.

00:23:26.300 So, you just played an incredible awakening of a person who's finding God, who's changing his life, who's really very, very humble about it, not preachy, just like I'm telling you what happened to me.

00:23:40.220 Here's what I got.

00:23:41.220 This is from Variety.

00:23:42.900 Rich men singer Oliver Anthony laments porn, prescription drugs, and more in strange two-hour Joe Rogan interview.

00:23:51.160 Wow.

00:23:51.760 Because he thought porn was bad and didn't think, didn't like prescription drugs.

00:23:59.480 It was strange, but like nothing about this, nothing about the really, and that's really the story.

00:24:05.400 The most important part of his story.

00:24:07.560 Yeah, because people obviously connected at some level with the lyrics of the first song that came out, and that's how people were interested in him.

00:24:15.480 But the real story here is him and his change, his awakening, the life that has gone from zero to 60 in a few weeks really quickly.

00:24:28.260 I mean, that's the incredible thing about this, why he's an interesting figure.

00:24:32.540 And the fact that, I mean, listen, everybody is feeling defeated right now.

00:24:38.380 Everybody is losing hope.

00:24:40.720 We're all, at least I've been in my truck crying my eyes out over the country and, you know, God, help us.

00:24:48.320 I mean, everything we do, we screw it up.

00:24:51.500 Help us.

00:24:52.320 Where are you?

00:24:52.900 Help us.

00:24:53.320 Help us.

00:24:53.680 Help us.

00:24:54.420 And he is answering those prayers, and you don't see it, but he is answering those prayers through individuals.

00:25:01.740 Because everything else is discredited.

00:25:04.940 So these individuals pop up, and you're going to see more and more of them popping up here and there.

00:25:10.940 And they may not become famous, because it's not about the fame.

00:25:15.040 It's about the message that he's sending.

00:25:17.420 And the message is, I'm there.

00:25:20.240 I am there.

00:25:21.880 Once you humble yourself and you're broken, I'm there for you.

00:25:26.200 And I will rush to your aid.

00:25:28.480 I just want you to know, if you're feeling like he was feeling, this message is for you.

00:25:37.640 You're listening to this program today for a reason.

00:25:41.440 Don't write this off as a coincidence.

00:25:46.400 There's a method.

00:25:49.960 It's why it's called a miracle.

00:25:52.400 You know, some people will say, you know, a miracle is merely a change of perspective.

00:25:56.560 I think it is.

00:25:57.360 I think it is.

00:25:59.440 You can look at a miracle and go, oh, well, it was just the winds that swept up the water because there was a really big storm.

00:26:06.380 That would help Moses get across.

00:26:08.500 Okay.

00:26:09.620 If that's what it was, fine.

00:26:13.140 Change your perspective on that.

00:26:15.900 Wow.

00:26:16.540 What a coincidence that was at that time.

00:26:19.680 What a coincidence it is.

00:26:22.620 You're struggling, perhaps, with something.

00:26:25.280 And right now, you happen to be listening to this broadcast and you're hearing his message.

00:26:31.380 I'm just amazed at how he performed the first three steps of the 12 steps of AA.

00:26:46.840 The next one is really, really hard.

00:26:49.900 The first one is I'm powerless.

00:26:52.720 I can't.

00:26:53.200 My life is out of control.

00:26:54.860 Second one is there's a power greater than me that can restore me.

00:26:59.040 All I have to do, third step, is make the decision to turn my will and my life over to the care of God as I understand him and follow what he says.

00:27:11.040 Then the fourth one, make a searching and fearless moral inventory of yourself.

00:27:19.780 Five, admitted to God, to ourselves, and another human being the exact nature of your wrongs.

00:27:26.220 Six, ready to have God remove all of these.

00:27:30.660 Seven, humbly ask him to remove the shortcomings.

00:27:34.800 Then you start to make amends for them.

00:27:37.860 Now, let me show you how this works in a nation.

00:27:44.980 Abraham Lincoln was not a deeply religious man.

00:27:48.260 In fact, he hated religion because his father was the kind of guy who would quote scriptures as he would beat him.

00:27:56.940 And so he went off on a dark, dark path.

00:27:59.940 Most people don't know this.

00:28:01.180 We don't, you know, we don't celebrate people's dark path, but we should at least understand how the person got there.

00:28:09.100 He was horribly abused by his father.

00:28:12.120 His father was a Bible-toting guy and would beat him because of the scriptures.

00:28:19.400 And Abraham Lincoln was like, I don't want anything to do with my father.

00:28:22.180 I don't want to ever be like my father. 0.99

00:28:24.160 And this is all garbage. 0.99

00:28:25.960 And so he rejected it. 0.99

00:28:27.120 And he became the only reason.

00:28:29.400 The only reason why maybe he changed at first was because he was afraid of syphilis, because he had whored around. 1.00

00:28:39.360 You ever heard that about Abraham Lincoln?

00:28:42.280 That's who he became.

00:28:44.520 Then he realized my life is becoming unmanageable.

00:28:48.180 And he didn't turn to God.

00:28:53.640 He just turned to higher values and principles and started to live those.

00:28:58.780 He still kind of, he knew God and he knew the Bible inside and out.

00:29:05.280 But he was not what you would call a practicing Christian.

00:29:11.160 He said, I wasn't Christian when the war broke out.

00:29:18.600 I wasn't Christian when my son died.

00:29:22.620 I became a Christian at Gettysburg.

00:29:27.520 That's where he makes the covenant.

00:29:30.920 That's where he asks America as a broken president, as somebody who has completely broken down.

00:29:41.160 And he sees what's happening.

00:29:44.580 And they can't make any progress.

00:29:48.260 The North is losing at this point.

00:29:52.300 Listen to what he said in his second inaugural address.

00:29:55.200 And tell me this isn't the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh step of AA.

00:30:01.300 Neither party expected for the war of this magnitude or the duration which is already attained.

00:30:08.800 Neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should cease.

00:30:15.980 Each looked for an easier triumph.

00:30:18.800 And as a result, less fundamental and astounding.

00:30:22.000 Both read the same Bible.

00:30:23.400 We pray to the same God.

00:30:24.900 And each invokes his aid against the other.

00:30:27.360 It might seem strange for any man to dare ask a just God's assistant in wringing their bread from the sweat of another man's face.

00:30:37.100 But let's not judge.

00:30:40.000 Or we will be judged.

00:30:42.440 But the prayers of both cannot be answered.

00:30:46.900 And neither of them are answered fully.

00:30:49.080 But the Almighty has his own purposes.

00:30:54.660 Quote,

00:30:55.540 Woe unto the world because of its offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come.

00:31:01.240 But woe to that man by whom the offensive cometh.

00:31:05.600 End quote.

00:31:06.260 If we should suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses in which the providence of God must needs come,

00:31:15.500 but which have continued through the appointed, his appointed time,

00:31:20.300 he now wills it to stop.

00:31:23.960 And that he gives to both north and south this terrible war as the woes do

00:31:30.360 by those whom the offense came.

00:31:34.280 Shall we discern then in any departure from those divine attributes that

00:31:41.400 that the believers in a living God always ascribe to him?

00:31:46.740 We hope, we pray that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away.

00:31:52.340 Yet, if God wills it continue until all of the wealth piled by the bondsman's 250 years of unrequited toil

00:32:03.720 shall be sunk.

00:32:05.960 And until every drop of blood drawn with the last shall be paid by another drawn with a sword.

00:32:12.540 As it was said 3,000 years ago, still it must be said,

00:32:15.240 the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous together.

00:32:18.440 He is saying, I surrender my will and the country must surrender their will.

00:32:28.120 And if it means we're destroyed because of our sins, we're going to be destroyed.

00:32:37.120 Now that seems like somebody who's giving up, right?

00:32:43.580 Say this all the time to people and they say, oh, so we're going to just give up?

00:32:48.440 No.

00:32:50.660 Accept the will of God and then do all that you can.

00:32:56.400 With malice toward none, with charity for all, with the firmness in the fight as God gives us to see the right.

00:33:05.720 So in other words, we're fighting as hard as we can and we're struggling to see the light and see the right.

00:33:12.400 But God's giving that to us.

00:33:14.800 So keep humble.

00:33:16.620 He says, let us strive on to finish the work we're in, to bind up the nation's wounds,

00:33:22.300 to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan.

00:33:28.500 To do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.

00:33:38.380 Everything you need to know about life and our country, because it's the same.

00:33:50.660 Because in this country, we the people are the country.

00:33:55.520 And because we the people have gone astray, our government has gone astray.

00:34:01.000 It's merely a reflection of us.

00:34:05.120 And let me tell you, with firm reliance on divine providence,

00:34:13.640 if every dollar and every success this country has had needs to go down the drain for us to do God's will,

00:34:27.520 for us to be a nation that is righteous and good and works to serve mankind,

00:34:35.120 so be it.

00:34:38.320 We'll make it.

00:34:40.000 Because we have God on our side.

00:34:42.800 Sorry, because we are on God's side.

00:34:46.560 Huge difference.

00:34:48.320 It seems like these days we almost do more online than we do offline.

00:34:54.100 Unfortunately, that frequency creates an illusion of security.

00:34:58.860 But it is an illusion.

00:35:01.260 Cybercriminals are constantly finding new ways to get a hold of your information,

00:35:06.680 and they'll exploit every advantage available to them.

00:35:09.560 That's why it's important that you have security with LifeLock.

00:35:13.960 Everything we do online at any time,

00:35:16.660 it's important to understand cybercrime and identity theft and how it affects our lives and how fast it is changing.

00:35:22.640 It's equally important to realize measures can be taken to help keep it from happening.

00:35:28.580 But nobody can stop all of it because it's changing all the time.

00:36:10.280 Alarming.

00:36:11.800 Yesterday, Mitch McConnell.

00:36:15.400 He's speaking to reporters, and here's what happens.

00:36:19.720 What are my thoughts about what?

00:36:22.140 Running for re-election in 2026.

00:36:25.960 Now he's frozen.

00:36:29.600 His eyes aren't moving.

00:36:33.140 Did you hear the question, Senator?

00:36:34.800 Running for re-election in 2026?

00:36:38.580 He's looking up at a corner.

00:36:41.300 All right, I'm sorry, you all, we're going to need a minute.

00:36:42.720 She seems...

00:36:44.720 She seems...

00:36:45.340 They seem like this has happened before.

00:36:51.800 They're not freaked out.

00:36:55.720 One of the aides is speaking to him.

00:36:58.020 Now he comes out of it a bit.

00:36:59.800 Okay.

00:37:01.180 Okay.

00:37:01.620 Somebody else have a question.

00:37:05.100 Please speak up.

00:37:06.180 Yeah.

00:37:06.540 What just happened?

00:37:08.660 How is that not your next question?

00:37:10.040 That is not the next question.

00:37:11.320 What just happened to you?

00:37:13.800 Where'd you go?

00:37:14.960 I mean, this is terrifying.

00:37:19.720 This is our country, people.

00:37:21.960 This is our country.

00:37:23.540 How everybody in Kentucky is not standing up and saying right now, come home.

00:37:29.420 Come home.

00:37:30.040 It's over.

00:37:30.580 It's over.

00:37:31.060 It's over.

00:37:31.820 It's sad.

00:37:32.520 Come home.

00:37:32.920 It's over.

00:37:33.920 It's really sad.

00:37:35.640 And it's terrible to watch that happen.

00:37:37.540 We'll all get there, I guess, at some point.

00:37:39.820 They're families.

00:37:41.160 But how can you let this go on?

00:37:43.180 And like, look, I understand there are calculations to be made with seats the way it works in Kentucky.

00:37:50.380 By the way, thanks to Mitch McConnell, largely.

00:37:52.280 He changed the law a couple of years ago so that the Democratic governor couldn't name the next senator.

00:37:57.840 You wonder if he knew that this was coming on with him at the time.

00:38:02.180 Well, I know he told me.

00:38:05.380 Glenn?

00:38:07.680 Glenn?

00:38:08.600 Hmm?

00:38:09.900 What just happened?

00:38:11.520 No, but it's like, wouldn't you say that?

00:38:13.520 Yes.

00:38:13.960 Of the 100%. 0.64

00:38:14.760 I mean, it's how do you not ask that?

00:38:16.800 And you give the aides come over and they know you could tell that this has happened before.

00:38:20.940 The first one tries to cover and say, oh, he just didn't hear you.

00:38:23.980 So she basically yells in his ear. 1.00

00:38:27.260 Yeah.

00:38:27.940 Hey! 0.99

00:38:29.340 Answer that question! 0.85

00:38:30.540 Did you hear that question about you running again?

00:38:33.000 And he is as if nothing has occurred.

00:38:36.800 No, he's like a seizure.

00:38:39.040 Mary has seizures.

00:38:40.020 And that's how we are with Mary.

00:38:42.340 When she'll freeze up and everyone will go, Mary's having a seizure. 0.83

00:38:47.140 And then we all just come and we just told her and we're just like, it's okay, Mary.

00:38:52.040 It's okay.

00:38:52.760 It's okay.

00:38:53.360 We prey on her and then she comes out of it. 0.64

00:38:56.300 She's fine.

00:38:57.640 But that was the exact...

00:38:59.920 I mean, you've seen it, obviously, this happen over and over again.

00:39:02.380 Is that what you just saw?

00:39:03.760 Is that this...

00:39:04.300 Would you think it is a seizure or...

00:39:06.660 It's some neurological something.

00:39:09.580 I don't know what.

00:39:10.440 But I mean, notice he did this in the first time.

00:39:12.600 We'd have to go back and look at the tape.

00:39:13.840 But I think when he did it last time, his eyes went up and to the right.

00:39:17.940 Yeah.

00:39:18.180 That kind of happened there too.

00:39:19.160 Yeah.

00:39:19.840 And it's a neurological event of some sort.

00:39:22.700 I don't know.

00:39:23.380 I'm not a doctor.

00:39:24.300 But it's disturbing.

00:39:26.140 Now, I don't know.

00:39:27.040 I'm suspicious.

00:39:28.420 It does...

00:39:29.200 You know, I don't know.

00:39:30.060 I'm no doctor.

00:39:30.740 But obviously, associating it with age, it does seem like this has been a long, slowing

00:39:34.880 process for him.

00:39:35.900 But this is not...

00:39:36.580 But it may not be.

00:39:37.320 What's happening with Mitch McConnell is not the same as the dementia in the White House.

00:39:43.960 No, no.

00:39:44.480 It's different.

00:39:45.060 It's worse.

00:39:45.360 It's much more close to the brain damage from our senator in Pennsylvania.

00:39:52.720 Or Feinstein.

00:39:53.520 Or Feinstein.

00:39:53.900 My gosh!

00:39:54.960 How many examples?

00:39:55.500 This is our country.

00:39:57.100 Would you let him drive?

00:39:58.620 Of course not.

00:39:59.720 Why?

00:40:00.200 He could hurt somebody.

00:40:02.080 He can hurt 350 million people.

00:40:05.480 Take the keys of our country away from these people.

00:40:09.440 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:40:11.200 Let me tell you about Grip6.

00:40:12.820 Grip6 is one of these companies that does things the American way.

00:40:16.840 Meaning, they do it the old-fashioned way.

00:40:19.860 They buy the materials and the workers all from America.

00:40:24.600 So, when you buy, let's say, their socks, you know that's coming from specially bred sheep

00:40:29.820 that are raised here in America.

00:40:32.660 And the people who sheared them are Americans.

00:40:34.720 And the American manufacturers who wash that wool and process it and weave it into socks

00:40:39.060 that keep your feet warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

00:40:41.960 It's an American business that tries to do things right by doing all of it in America.

00:40:49.760 Trust and hard-earned money belongs at companies like Grip6.

00:40:54.360 Go find them out.

00:40:55.500 Grip6.com slash back.

00:40:58.100 Grip6.com slash back.

00:41:11.460 We got no room to compromise.

00:41:16.380 We got to stand together.

00:41:18.300 It's the course of life.

00:41:22.380 Stand up, stand, and hold the light.

00:41:25.500 It's a new day, I'm trying to raise.

00:41:33.560 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:41:39.680 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:46.460 Holy cow. 0.89

00:41:47.540 There's a lot of evidence now that our president is involved and has engaged in bribery, selling

00:41:59.800 out our country, and lying to the American people about it. 0.79

00:42:03.600 And then the cover-up, which is probably the worst, perhaps, in American history.

00:42:09.780 I think it is, but I would like to go back to the records to make sure.

00:42:15.720 Some of the headlines today, Hunter Biden's firm, Joe's VP office, exchanged over 1,000 emails.

00:42:24.400 Remember, I'm not involved.

00:42:26.940 I have nothing to do.

00:42:27.980 I've not talked to his partners or his clients or anything.

00:42:30.540 Well, why is his business exchanging emails with the vice president's office when you

00:42:38.460 were vice president over 1,000 times?

00:42:41.860 Well, there is somebody on this, and they've gotten about 800 of them released.

00:42:48.080 The archives are like, no, these ones, these are super secret.

00:42:54.780 We can't let them out of my herd, national security.

00:42:58.520 Oh, okay.

00:43:01.260 All right.

00:43:02.140 Sure.

00:43:03.180 We're going to talk to you about the emails and then move on to all of the other evidence

00:43:07.920 that is rolling in.

00:43:09.060 It is really not looking good for the president, but you wouldn't know that if you're watching

00:43:13.820 mainstream media, so we'll go over it in just a minute.

00:43:16.980 We talked on the program yesterday about Jaden, the kid that got kicked out of school this

00:43:21.120 week for having a Gadsden flag patch on his backpack.

00:43:24.780 His teacher thought it was tied to the slave trade in America.

00:43:28.580 If we have time, I've got to go through this again because there's some new observations

00:43:32.620 on this.

00:43:34.240 Fortunately, Jaden is a Tuttle Twins fan, which means he's smarter than his teacher.

00:43:40.880 Maybe not smarter, just more well-read.

00:43:44.480 He's actually read things about our history, not just the bad things.

00:43:48.980 Let me ask you something.

00:43:49.840 How many other stories like this are going on in our schools right now that you haven't

00:43:53.500 heard of? 0.99

00:43:54.780 How many of our kids are being fed leftist garbage daily? 0.98

00:43:58.860 How hard is it to keep up with that and undo the damage? 0.96

00:44:02.840 Well, Jaden showed us it's not all that hard.

00:44:07.000 Tuttle Twins.

00:44:07.780 They're on a mission to teach kids from a young age to think for themselves, to learn from

00:44:13.040 true history so they can fight to keep their freedom.

00:44:16.400 If you want to make a difference in the lives of your kids, help them stand up for what's

00:44:20.860 right.

00:44:21.280 You need to act now.

00:44:22.440 Tuttle Twins has a back to school special.

00:44:24.820 It is 70% off their normal price.

00:44:27.940 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

00:44:29.360 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

00:44:30.880 Go there now before this offer runs out.

00:44:33.220 70% off.

00:44:35.200 Tuttle Twins Beck dot com.

00:44:37.100 All right.

00:44:40.680 We're going to Kimberly Herman now.

00:44:42.720 She is the Southeastern Legal Foundation General Counsel.

00:44:46.400 She is part of the legal group that filed the lawsuit to get Joe Biden's pseudonym emails.

00:44:54.480 Now, if you're taking this from the very beginning, I'm going to ask her to tell us what the pseudonym

00:45:01.120 emails and how common those are, et cetera, et cetera.

00:45:04.500 Hi, Kimberly.

00:45:05.000 How are you?

00:45:06.040 I'm doing great.

00:45:07.240 Thanks for having me on.

00:45:08.200 You bet.

00:45:08.620 OK, so we heard about Joe Biden using a pseudonym.

00:45:14.440 In fact, several pseudonyms when he was the vice president.

00:45:17.940 And we got this because of some of the emails on Hunter Biden's laptop.

00:45:22.800 Correct.

00:45:23.120 Correct.

00:45:24.380 That's correct.

00:45:25.460 We first learned about these in the summer of 2021 when Hunter Biden's laptop was exposed

00:45:32.000 and authenticated.

00:45:33.500 And John Solomon, New York Post, Daily Mail, you, lots of people covered these.

00:45:40.040 And we were really interested in them because why would a vice president need to use an alias

00:45:44.900 email address and forward government information to his son and his son's business partners?

00:45:50.380 And so we started asking the National Archives for the records all the way back in 2021.

00:45:56.140 So and they just released them.

00:45:58.480 So they're quick.

00:45:59.080 They have actually still not released them.

00:46:03.300 When we filed that initial request, they came back and said, whoa, whoa, we can't release

00:46:08.120 any of Joe Biden's vice president records till 2022.

00:46:11.860 Come back then.

00:46:12.740 So we waited.

00:46:14.440 We came back then and we've been waiting for 14 months.

00:46:18.280 They have acknowledged that about 5,400 of these potentially exist.

00:46:23.620 Wow.

00:46:23.800 Where what story was I reading today or maybe a couple of days ago that I thought a thousand

00:46:29.560 existed and 800 had just been released.

00:46:32.320 None of them have been released and there's 5,400 of them.

00:46:37.040 Yeah.

00:46:37.320 So none of these alias ones have been released.

00:46:40.340 I believe that our friends over, I believe in America First Legal, have also submitted some

00:46:46.660 FOIA requests and that they have been getting some some emails that they're not necessarily

00:46:51.500 the pseudonym emails.

00:46:52.880 Right.

00:46:53.100 OK.

00:46:53.460 OK.

00:46:53.860 He didn't always use the pseudonym.

00:46:55.980 He just used it sometimes.

00:46:57.320 Do you know how common it is for a president or vice president to have pseudonym emails?

00:47:05.160 I mean, other others have come out where they've said, you know, we know about how well, we

00:47:09.080 obviously know about Hillary Clinton's secret server.

00:47:13.900 That was an entire server.

00:47:16.040 There have been other stories out there that past presidents have used them, you know, use

00:47:21.920 them.

00:47:22.780 I don't think that you should be using them.

00:47:24.300 I think that there's legal, massive legal implications, but whether you use them or not, these emails

00:47:29.700 are still government records.

00:47:31.440 It was he was still the vice president talking about government information and forwarding

00:47:37.040 that on to people.

00:47:38.140 That makes it a government record.

00:47:39.920 It makes it subject to the Freedom of Information Act, which means that anyone in the public can

00:47:45.500 request that these records get released.

00:47:47.880 Now, we don't know what's in the pseudonym emails.

00:47:53.700 We're hearing now that we are seeing things from the White House coming out from the White

00:48:00.160 House that Joe Biden was involved with his son's firm.

00:48:07.520 They were getting invitations to things.

00:48:10.220 They were actually in communication on, you know, state dinners, et cetera, et cetera, and

00:48:16.560 played a role in those, which I think is extremely uncommon, I would imagine.

00:48:20.820 Um, but the, the pseudonym, you think that these are even more damning possibly because.

00:48:30.340 Yeah.

00:48:30.900 I mean, why else would you use a pseudonym?

00:48:32.540 Right.

00:48:32.940 And so we've been, we've been sending FOIA requests and trying to release as many documents

00:48:38.540 to the public as we can about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and Burisma and the other things

00:48:44.940 that happened in Ukraine, um, for, oh my gosh, three, four years now.

00:48:50.740 And we've seen in a lot of those records with official email addresses that those meetings

00:48:55.920 happened.

00:48:56.540 We've put them out on our website, John Solomon's put them out.

00:49:00.140 Um, he's done a lot of those FOIA requests that we've litigated.

00:49:03.640 And so those are damning enough.

00:49:06.940 Why else would you use a pseudonym if you're not doing something nefarious?

00:49:11.200 Now, maybe they'll come out and we will all learn that there's nothing important in

00:49:14.840 them.

00:49:15.340 Maybe they were personal communications.

00:49:17.720 5,400 of them?

00:49:19.200 I highly, highly doubt it.

00:49:21.560 Right.

00:49:22.040 Yeah.

00:49:22.260 I mean, I, I highly doubt it.

00:49:23.920 I can't speculate to what's in them, um, until we see them, but something just doesn't,

00:49:29.440 doesn't quite smell right.

00:49:30.860 Right.

00:49:31.160 And we know that because of another email, right?

00:49:34.800 We got the pseudonym, uh, we found out that the, that he was emailing in pseudonym because

00:49:41.040 of the Hunter Biden laptop.

00:49:42.560 We saw the, what was it?

00:49:44.540 Robin L Peters or something like that.

00:49:46.580 Um, Robert L Peters.

00:49:48.280 Um, and do we know that he did communicate with the head of Ukraine?

00:49:56.780 Um, under a pseudonym, he was doing some official business in Ukraine.

00:50:01.120 We think he was reaching out to the president or somebody like that.

00:50:05.920 Right.

00:50:06.500 I am sorry.

00:50:07.160 I have not followed this story.

00:50:09.180 Yeah.

00:50:09.820 There, there, there are some indications to that.

00:50:12.160 And there are various emails out there floating around.

00:50:14.820 We at SLS have not personally authenticated any of them.

00:50:19.020 Um, but there are stories out there and there are emails that we've seen out there, um, where

00:50:24.020 there are these types of communications happening and, you know, through the other FOIA work

00:50:28.680 that we've done over the last several years, we have seen evidence of those meetings.

00:50:33.180 We have exposed very key records.

00:50:36.240 One of them was a memo that came out just a few weeks ago, um, where you're taught, they're

00:50:41.700 talking about setting up these meetings.

00:50:43.460 And so there's really no question that Hunter Biden and Devin Archer and his other business

00:50:49.660 partners were getting access to top state department officials to talk about their business

00:50:56.140 dealings.

00:50:56.700 What influence it had on that.

00:50:58.720 I'll leave that to the congressional investigations and we'll leave that, um, to the people who

00:51:04.160 can actually do something about that.

00:51:06.360 Right.

00:51:06.920 Our goal here is to just really try to help restore some level of government integrity.

00:51:10.900 Either we have a FOIA or we don't.

00:51:13.460 Produce the records.

00:51:14.620 How unusual is this to be blocked, uh, with a FOIA like this for something that is emails?

00:51:24.280 So I, honestly, I wish I could say that it's unusual.

00:51:26.920 It has taken us seven years to get records from some government agencies in the past.

00:51:31.980 This is a fundamental problem that we have in our country, right?

00:51:35.340 We have those that are elected into office and they preach transparency and they say, we're

00:51:40.000 going to show you everything.

00:51:41.200 And then it's just stonewall, stonewall, stonewall, stonewall by all of the federal agencies.

00:51:46.600 And so this is a massive problem.

00:51:50.020 What is it that they have to hide?

00:51:51.600 We're still litigating lawsuits that we had against the DOJ and the FBI to try to uncover

00:51:57.200 what was actually happening with Russiagate, right?

00:52:00.020 Here we are all these years later.

00:52:01.620 Um, you know, we won't stop until we can expose the truth because the only way that we'll have

00:52:08.040 a Republic, the only way that we can rebuild this Republic is by truth and transparency.

00:52:13.640 So how is it that, I mean, we can change this.

00:52:16.720 How do we change this?

00:52:18.980 We just have to try to change the culture and we have to let, we have to let the federal

00:52:22.940 government know we as Americans have to let them know that we are not going away.

00:52:27.660 We know that we have the right to these records and we will ask for them and we will continue

00:52:32.080 to ask for them.

00:52:32.880 Fortunately, we have the courts.

00:52:35.480 And so now we've had a turn to the courts.

00:52:37.800 It's time intensive.

00:52:38.800 It's resource intensive.

00:52:40.180 It means that, you know, we have to continue to wait, but there, there is a way to get resolution.

00:52:45.600 And fortunately, um, we have a judiciary, a strong federal judiciary.

00:52:50.380 Thank you, President Trump, um, that we can then turn to.

00:52:54.600 So they now have, if I'm not mistaken, uh, the national archives and records has 30 days from

00:53:02.360 here to respond.

00:53:04.620 Yes.

00:53:05.180 Yep.

00:53:05.500 They've got 30 days from when they are served the complaint, um, to respond.

00:53:10.180 You know, we're really hopeful that they'll just come to the table and that they'll come

00:53:13.620 to us and say, we know we kept putting you off.

00:53:16.460 We're going to review the records.

00:53:17.800 We're going to produce them and that we don't have to continue to litigate it in court.

00:53:21.520 If they really fight hard in court to not turn these records over in a timely manner,

00:53:26.940 that is a signal in and of itself.

00:53:29.080 In my opinion, that there's definitely something in them that somebody does not want some of

00:53:35.560 the American public.

00:53:36.580 So it would be illegal for the white house to interfere with the, uh, archives and, and

00:53:43.120 records.

00:53:43.640 Right.

00:53:44.020 I mean, you can't have phone calls going back and forth from, you know, the, the Biden white 0.99

00:53:49.060 house saying, no, keep these.

00:53:50.760 They're supposed to just judge it coldly and, uh, and release what they have to release.

00:53:56.640 And if there is a national secret in there, then they can classify it, but there should

00:54:00.780 be no, uh, no political, uh, play in anything like this.

00:54:05.880 Should there, there, there really shouldn't be.

00:54:08.280 I mean, there are some exceptions for classified information and, you know, Joe Biden could then

00:54:14.040 determine that he would declassify them potentially.

00:54:16.960 And so there's obviously a process for that, um, as you mentioned, but there should not

00:54:22.220 be communications going back and forth.

00:54:25.040 You know, one thing that will be very interesting after all of this is to FOIA, any communications

00:54:30.160 about our FOIA.

00:54:32.700 That's something that's always really interesting to do because sometimes those communications

00:54:37.600 do happen.

00:54:38.260 And again, we, we just have to continue to fight, to expose all of this because hopefully

00:54:43.740 one day politicians will wake up and say, you know what?

00:54:47.380 They need business.

00:54:48.460 I really need to be transparent now.

00:54:51.040 Uh, this is an organization.

00:54:53.180 If you don't know the Southeastern legal foundation, um, you should, uh, it is SLF liberty.org.

00:55:00.520 If you are somebody who has resources and you're tired of all of this, put your money where people

00:55:08.380 are actually doing things to expose the truth and then putting those in the hands of people

00:55:14.480 who can enforce the truth and clean up all the bad things.

00:55:20.060 Uh, and that is exactly what Southeastern legal foundation does. 0.92

00:55:23.360 Uh, go to SF, sorry, SLF liberty.org.

00:55:28.140 That's SLF liberty.org.

00:55:31.140 General counsel, Kimberly Herman, Kimberly, thank you for everything that you're doing.

00:55:35.700 God bless you.

00:55:36.280 Thank you.

00:55:36.880 You bet.

00:55:38.680 Now let's say you have a credit card with a balance of $10,000.

00:55:42.700 Huh?

00:55:43.340 How much is it going to take to pay that off?

00:55:46.280 What's making the minimum payment faithfully every month?

00:55:49.240 How long is it going to tell you?

00:55:50.780 I'll give you the answer in five seconds, American financing, NMLS, one, eight, two, three,

00:55:57.540 three, four, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.

00:56:01.760 When we first, when we last left our program, I asked you how long would it take to pay off

00:56:06.960 a balance of $10,000?

00:56:09.480 The answer, eight and a half years.

00:56:12.900 Now this message from American financing, uh, this is, by the way, uh, eight and a half years

00:56:18.400 doesn't include any of the extra fees, uh, from compounding interest. 0.94

00:56:27.140 We're all so screwed. 0.99

00:56:28.320 So what do we do? 0.92

00:56:29.240 We just get a shovel and we just start taking some of the dirt away as much as we can, but

00:56:34.120 we have to do it wisely.

00:56:35.280 If you have debts that you're worried about, which is pretty much now every debt, you can't

00:56:40.840 afford not to call American financing and at least find out if you can get them to work

00:56:46.080 for you.

00:57:14.120 800-906-2440.

00:57:16.360 10 second station ID.

00:57:26.440 See, I'm, I'm just mixing the two Hunter Biden's Rosemont Seneca partners investment firm traded

00:57:32.400 more than 1000 emails with Joe Biden's office during his time as vice president.

00:57:38.400 Hundreds remain hidden because of executive privilege asserted by the white house.

00:57:43.280 This according to the national archives, the 861 emails that reference Rosemont Seneca were

00:57:50.800 sent or received by the office of the vice president between January 11th and December, 2013.

00:57:57.360 These are not pseudonym emails.

00:58:00.880 These are emails directly from the white house, from the office of the vice president to Rosemont

00:58:07.760 Seneca.

00:58:08.360 How could you possibly write a thousand emails to Rosemont Seneca and not know anything about

00:58:15.220 your son's business and him not getting any kind of special favors?

00:58:19.740 Uh, the, uh, white house refused to allow the release of 200 emails referencing Hunter

00:58:26.700 Biden's firm, citing executive privilege release would disclose confidential advice between

00:58:32.720 the president and his advisors.

00:58:35.440 So wait, was Rosemont Seneca advising the vice president on something?

00:58:40.060 Cause that's a quote release would disclose confidential advice between the president and his advisors.

00:58:50.340 Who in Rosemont is advising the vice president?

00:58:53.660 I mean, I Hunter Hunter Biden and his business associates frequently use their direct line of

00:58:59.940 communications with the office of the vice president to leverage access to the Obama white

00:59:03.880 house, the white house guest lists, seating assignments, and biographies of guests for various

00:59:08.720 official events, including the 2012 United Kingdom state dinner, the Turkey state luncheon, and the

00:59:15.020 2014 France state dinner were shared with the Rosemont Seneca employees.

00:59:19.940 One email contains an invitation forwarded to the white house for then vice president Joe Biden to

00:59:24.900 attend an event at UCLA, uh, for an international relations and invites then the second lady, 1.00

00:59:31.460 Jill Biden to participate in a world food program campaign invitations from the white house for

00:59:36.700 several events at Hunter Biden, presumably attended or had requested tickets for guests are also shown in

00:59:43.220 the national archives document dump.

00:59:45.760 This is remarkably amazing.

00:59:50.580 I mean, I'm not saying that we have irrefutable proof in a court of law yet.

00:59:56.000 We haven't seen these emails from the suit.

00:59:57.400 Correct.

00:59:57.680 Right.

00:59:58.240 But you are obviously in denial.

01:00:00.860 If you do not think he was breaking the law here, it just, there's way too much smoke.

01:00:07.500 You can sit here and still deny it.

01:00:10.040 Cause we don't have the irrefutable proof that is prepared for a court of law, but like you're just

01:00:17.140 in denial.

01:00:17.660 You're just, you're trying to come up, you're trying to hold out here until this proof does

01:00:21.560 eventually appear.

01:00:22.800 Hunter Biden received a notification from the state department with updates and arrival

01:00:27.860 information for the state luncheon.

01:00:30.660 Biden was involved in Hunter.

01:00:32.700 Biden was involved in planning a state luncheon with Chinese officials at the white house.

01:00:37.740 I mean, months before he traveled to the country to secure a lucrative deal with the Chinese 0.91

01:00:42.260 government.

01:00:43.360 This, this is crazy.

01:00:45.040 They did.

01:00:45.640 Obama said he'd have the most transparent administration ever.

01:00:49.080 This is very transparent.

01:00:50.060 Transparent in a written response to the request for the documents related to Hunter Biden, James

01:00:57.400 Biden, and their foreign business dealings.

01:00:59.680 The national archives noted the group that the email messages include January, 2011 guest

01:01:04.440 list for the China state luncheon event held emails obtained by the AFL reveal the broad

01:01:09.920 access Hunter Biden enjoyed to the, um, uh, official government channels while his father was vice

01:01:15.000 president.

01:01:15.380 He wasn't, he wasn't selling the illusion of access.

01:01:19.780 He had the access.

01:01:21.720 He was given the access.

01:01:24.420 And these are the official emails.

01:01:27.320 Yeah.

01:01:28.320 And like the, the only argument they have now is the, as if these things were like unrelated,

01:01:35.400 you know, they're going to try to say, well, yes, Hunter talked to these business associates

01:01:39.960 and Joe showed up to dinners with them at times and hung out with them for an hour, but they

01:01:45.340 were, you know, it's the only meal in history where you meet with a bunch of business associates

01:01:50.560 and business never comes up.

01:01:51.800 Like that's never happened in human history before this, but this particular dinner was

01:01:55.880 like that.

01:01:56.800 And there were, uh, apparently maybe as much as a hundred of these dinners and it never

01:02:02.560 hundred now.

01:02:03.200 It's incredible.

01:02:05.980 I, I, you have to just be in legitimate denial.

01:02:09.540 You know, you just want to find a way out of this for your own political side.

01:02:12.800 And look, that's not, it's been, that's happened before on both sides, but you have to be in

01:02:19.360 denial to think that this was not going on.

01:02:21.120 I mean, it's, we have way too much evidence at this point. 0.88

01:02:23.260 It's ridiculous.

01:02:23.960 And they keep going on television saying there's nothing tying this to Joe Biden Hunter. 0.90

01:02:28.680 Sure.

01:02:29.040 But not Joe.

01:02:33.200 Hey, we should always hope for the best, but we should also then do what we're supposed

01:02:38.680 to do and prepare for the worst.

01:02:40.700 Peace of mind is a lot easier to achieve when you've covered all your bases.

01:02:45.060 You know, that's one reason why, uh, I learned something really refreshing back in my thirties.

01:02:52.120 Lies make things so complex. 1.00

01:02:54.860 It's so much easier to tell the truth.

01:02:57.340 It really is.

01:02:58.680 And it's kind of like this with preparation, you know, being freaked out.

01:03:03.200 All the time about something is so much energy.

01:03:06.800 Just do what you're supposed to do and then let it go.

01:03:55.580 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:04:06.640 Let me give you some additional news here on the case into Joe and Hunter Biden.

01:04:13.780 Apparently, we now find out that top Justice Department officials were meddling in the criminal investigation

01:04:22.880 into Hunter Biden.

01:04:24.040 They showed favoritism.

01:04:25.740 Now, listen, listen to what they did.

01:04:27.120 This according to the Daily Mail.

01:04:28.400 Attorneys for senior IRS investigator Gary Shapely revealed a top justice official approached them in April, saying he wanted to investigate Shapely's claims of slow rolling and obstruction in the Hunter Biden case.

01:04:44.180 Associate Deputy Director General Bradley, I don't know, Weisenheimer, immediately met with Hunter's lawyers and his Delaware prosecutor and days later struck a sweetheart deal with President Sun getting blanket immunity and no jail time.

01:05:04.120 So this guy was sent out from the top of DOJ and said, hey, these guys are complaining, you know, that we're playing games.

01:05:18.740 What do you why don't you go talk to them?

01:05:21.220 So he went in and talked to them and he's like, hey, we're really concerned about this.

01:05:25.280 What exactly is happening here?

01:05:27.860 What was what was going on?

01:05:30.140 Then he went back to his boss at DOJ and said, they got pretty good evidence here that, you know, this has been slow rolling and they're not going to take it.

01:05:43.160 Then the next day.

01:05:46.120 That guy calls the lead attorney for Hunter Biden.

01:05:52.180 Then they all meet.

01:05:53.960 And the Justice Department puts together this blanket immunity, which at the time actually included blanket immunity on everything.

01:06:07.140 So this guy, Merrick Garland says, no, we're not involved at all.

01:06:12.020 Really?

01:06:12.540 Because somebody in your office went and met with the whistleblowers who a couple months later became whistleblowers, met with the whistleblowers.

01:06:20.860 Then he went to you, told you, then he went back out and he talked to Hunter Biden's lawyers.

01:06:28.440 And then that day or the next day, you guys put together a deal to absolve Hunter Biden from everything and try to jam it through.

01:06:36.820 And when you did, the judge wised up and the whistleblowers came out.

01:06:43.080 We now know that that is true.

01:06:49.020 You know, Stu, you said a minute ago, and I understand it.

01:06:51.520 I really do. 1.00

01:06:52.660 Because we're so stupid right now. 1.00

01:06:55.600 We're just at each other's throats. 1.00

01:06:57.680 And I don't mean, there are Marxists, Leninists that want a revolution and want blood in the streets.

01:07:04.720 When they say they want an end to whiteness, they mean it. 1.00

01:07:08.080 When they say they want an end to America, they mean it.

01:07:13.060 An end to our lifestyle, they mean it.

01:07:15.780 But that's not our neighbor.

01:07:17.760 I don't think that's not our average Democratic neighbor.

01:07:22.340 Our Democratic neighbor has not been hearing all of these facts.

01:07:27.520 So they don't know all of them.

01:07:29.740 And when we meet with our friends, or our former friends, or our family, or now some of us have former family, which is horrible, we don't listen because we've just argued back and forth.

01:07:45.520 But if we can get to a place to where we say, look, this is our country, this is our country, my country, and your country, we both have to live here.

01:07:57.620 And we have to have some basic rules that we agree with.

01:08:03.400 And let's start with Mitch McConnell.

01:08:05.980 I'm a guy who votes generally for the Republicans.

01:08:09.560 Everybody's saying, I'm only saying bad things about Joe Biden's age because I'm an ageist.

01:08:17.320 No, I'm not.

01:08:19.960 Look at the way he acts.

01:08:21.540 You and I both know.

01:08:22.460 Would you give him the keys to your car?

01:08:24.440 You wouldn't.

01:08:25.980 Now, I'm willing to admit my side has a problem with this.

01:08:31.360 Mitch McConnell.

01:08:33.140 And he's got to go.

01:08:35.100 If you won't give them the keys to your car, why would you give them the keys to your children's future?

01:08:47.920 We have to say to our friends, very calmly and rationally, how are you paying, have you paid attention to this at all?

01:08:57.880 Because I've tuned out so much, I know.

01:09:00.460 And have you paid attention because, well, let me just start here.

01:09:05.100 But if Donald Trump was taking money from China or Russia, would it matter?

01:09:18.140 I know it would because that's what that investigation was all about.

01:09:24.000 And that was proven to be false.

01:09:27.240 You can get into an argument about that later if you want, but just have your stats and all of the facts ready for that argument.

01:09:35.100 Great.

01:09:36.040 Because it would have with me, if he were selling out access or anything like that, if he were doing that with Russia, one of our enemies, I would have been there with you voting for impeachment.

01:09:49.900 I would have been the first one in line.

01:09:52.600 Just like I am with Mitch McConnell.

01:09:54.940 No.

01:09:56.100 It's wrong.

01:09:57.180 And we have to have certain things because this is all of our country.

01:10:00.660 Both of us, all of us, we have to live here.

01:10:10.020 Let me lay out some things here.

01:10:13.800 Let me show you what we do have.

01:10:17.220 And then take the president's statements.

01:10:23.120 I didn't know anything about my son's business dealings.

01:10:26.260 Here's a thousand emails from his office to his son's business partner.

01:10:33.360 His office was giving him government information on people that were coming to a state dinner that he would go to.

01:10:42.100 Hunter helped plan the Chinese visit.

01:10:48.480 And he was there to welcome.

01:10:50.700 And then a couple of months later, he gets.

01:10:52.540 Now, I'm not saying Joe's involved in that one.

01:10:54.480 But is that using, is that his family using access?

01:11:03.780 Yes.

01:11:04.760 Can I ask you this?

01:11:06.980 There's like nine family members now that are all involved that have offshore accounts.

01:11:15.300 Do you know anybody with an offshore account?

01:11:17.540 Because I don't.

01:11:18.580 And maybe there's a good reason to have an offshore account.

01:11:23.840 I don't know.

01:11:24.620 I don't know what it is, but maybe.

01:11:26.300 But we should ask, why is it that Joe Biden's family and relatives all have offshore accounts?

01:11:32.800 And what do those people do?

01:11:36.800 Now.

01:11:37.320 We can kind of guess what they do.

01:11:42.160 They must all be energy because they were receiving money that the banks, 70 notices from the banks, said to the government, red flag.

01:11:54.040 This looks like money laundering.

01:11:55.860 But they did nothing about it.

01:11:57.420 Treasury did nothing.

01:11:58.240 They sent this money over to those shell corporations and put all that money in the bank of the Bidens.

01:12:06.080 Can we just ask, what did they do?

01:12:08.940 Maybe they are energy experts.

01:12:11.480 And they all legitimately were on the payroll for Ukraine and China.

01:12:16.400 Maybe.

01:12:17.940 But that's, I don't see that on any of their resumes.

01:12:22.060 So what did they do?

01:12:23.820 What did they do to earn the millions from the foreign oligarchs? 0.97

01:12:33.900 We just have to start.

01:12:36.400 Look.

01:12:44.960 The line that changed my life was from Thomas Jefferson, and I've said it a million times.

01:12:50.760 Question with boldness, even the very existence of God.

01:12:55.900 Now, he's saying this because back then, you didn't question God.

01:13:02.620 That would make you a heretic. 0.98

01:13:04.960 You wouldn't question God.

01:13:06.720 What are you, an atheist?

01:13:08.120 No, I'm just questioning.

01:13:10.260 Question with boldness, even the very existence of God.

01:13:14.320 Four, if there be a God, he must surely rather honest questioning over blindfolded fear.

01:13:21.720 So, ask honest questions.

01:13:25.620 But then, when you get the answers, and they're provable to you,

01:13:33.500 and I know this in my own life because it brought me to Christ.

01:13:40.720 Gosh, I don't want to, really?

01:13:42.460 I've got to stop swearing?

01:13:43.600 I've got to care about other people and serve them?

01:13:47.460 I mean, I'm a whiner.

01:13:52.940 I don't want to do all that stuff.

01:13:54.780 I just want to be happy in my life.

01:13:57.180 Well, no, that's not the way it works.

01:14:01.520 And when I found that out, I didn't want to do it.

01:14:06.180 But I wanted to be happy.

01:14:09.920 I wanted my life to make sense.

01:14:11.620 So, okay, I'll do it.

01:14:14.440 And you don't do it like, okay, I'll do it.

01:14:17.120 But I remember laying in bed going, my whole life is going to change.

01:14:20.320 My whole life is going to change.

01:14:21.880 And it doesn't sound like a fun life because there's a lot of things that I like to do now.

01:14:26.300 I mean, come on, really?

01:14:28.380 Sin?

01:14:28.960 That's a pretty hefty word.

01:14:33.100 But I did it because it was true.

01:14:38.020 And so you were either somebody that is seeking the truth,

01:14:41.660 or you are deluding yourself because you want to be comfortable.

01:14:47.340 And that's why the truth shall set you free.

01:14:49.880 But it will make you miserable first because it will change your course.

01:14:53.280 If, and you know this to be true because I've paid a high price time and time again with audiences

01:15:00.860 for just saying what I believe and knowing that you're not going to agree with me.

01:15:05.360 Oh, well.

01:15:08.240 Live by the truth.

01:15:09.460 Ask your friends.

01:15:38.640 Can we just call a truce for a minute?

01:15:44.100 And I'll look at anything you put up about Donald Trump and his crimes or whatever.

01:15:48.800 Because maybe you know something I don't know.

01:15:52.680 But can we come together and just talk about facts for a second?

01:15:57.500 And I'm not going to bring opinions or anything.

01:15:59.220 I'm going to bring facts.

01:16:00.420 What do we know?

01:16:01.720 But we first have to admit to one another.

01:16:07.080 Will it make a difference?

01:16:09.260 If I present the facts, will it make a difference to you?

01:16:14.020 If it won't, well, then you're, I mean, then you're comfortable in your life and you're, you know, we all get what you deserve.

01:16:22.820 Um, but if you're an honest person, which I believe you to be, you look at the facts and you may share some facts of your own.

01:16:33.560 Might change my mind.

01:16:34.560 Might change my mind.

01:16:34.980 I don't know.

01:16:36.560 But that conversation has to begin.

01:16:40.360 America has got to come together.

01:16:43.220 Our government is involved in massive corruption, way beyond, way beyond, uh, Nixon.

01:16:53.400 And if we don't stop it, we don't survive.

01:16:58.500 And our children don't have a future.

01:17:01.660 And I don't care if it's left or right that's doing it.

01:17:05.140 I want all the weasels weeded out.

01:17:07.600 All of them.

01:17:11.380 Back in just a minute.

01:17:13.220 10 years ago, the parallel economy said that you and I, uh, couldn't do it.

01:17:17.900 There wasn't a parallel economy.

01:17:19.780 We began building one together.

01:17:22.220 One of the first into it was the blaze.

01:17:25.700 We disrupted the media.

01:17:28.280 Everybody said it couldn't be done.

01:17:30.380 Well, there's other companies that are really, it's very difficult, uh, to be a, to be a cell phone company.

01:17:38.200 Very, you know, it's, it's kind of, you know, cell towers and everything else.

01:17:41.640 Well, a company started this there and they're celebrating their 10th anniversary now.

01:17:46.760 And it is Patriot Mobile.

01:17:48.460 They offer nationwide coverage, giving you access to all three major networks, which means you're getting the same coverage that you're accustomed to.

01:17:55.180 But you don't have to put up with all the leftism and all of that stuff.

01:17:58.740 And you're saving money.

01:18:01.240 Switching is really easy.

01:18:02.600 Thanks to their 100% U.S.-based customer service team, you can keep your number, you can keep your phone, or you can upgrade.

01:18:10.060 They'll help you find the best plan for your needs, and you get the same coverage because they're on the same cell towers.

01:18:17.600 It's PatriotMobile.com slash Beck, or call 878-PATRIOT.

01:18:21.800 878-PATRIOT.

01:18:23.320 PatriotMobile.com slash Beck.

01:18:25.720 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:44.580 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:18:46.580 Last night on my Wednesday night special, we were talking about Hawaii and what's really going on in Hawaii.

01:18:54.980 And there's some really disturbing things that are happening.

01:18:59.320 And the government is almost 100% responsible for this.

01:19:05.400 The government and the response and the electric company, which is part of the government, they never prepared.

01:19:11.180 They had all kinds of warnings.

01:19:13.260 I mean, just I think it was like last year or the year before, they had another warning.

01:19:16.260 This was going to happen.

01:19:17.660 Here's what you need to do.

01:19:18.800 And they didn't do it.

01:19:20.300 They were more interested in green energy than fixing anything.

01:19:25.320 And so there's horrible fire.

01:19:27.480 And this could go down into just a horrible partisan battle.

01:19:32.480 But Hawaii is about to go into real suicidal kind of tendencies.

01:19:42.960 There's so many people that lived in this town, historic.

01:19:48.720 They've lost their heritage.

01:19:50.200 They've lost their house.

01:19:51.260 Many of them saw their relatives burned to death or, you know, couldn't escape.

01:19:56.860 And they've been waiting.

01:19:58.240 And I mean, it's they're already having I think they've had three suicides already from survivors.

01:20:04.460 It's going to get really bad.

01:20:06.240 And they're going to need, you know, mental health help.

01:20:12.680 And one of the things that we always talk about at Mercury One is we a we don't we don't put our signs up anywhere.

01:20:21.840 You know, people always put their signs up and, you know, Red Cross.

01:20:24.960 We don't do that.

01:20:26.060 We don't care.

01:20:27.020 We're we're we're just there to help and we're help.

01:20:30.260 We we help fund some of these other organizations that are local.

01:20:37.120 There's some something big that we can do to help.

01:20:41.020 But it's it's I mean, it's kind of along the lines, really, of the Afghanistan thing.

01:20:46.640 I mean, nobody's really going to do it.

01:20:50.640 I mean, they'll get government to help, but I'd rather have, you know, free people that just want to volunteer their time.

01:20:58.400 It'll change them.

01:20:59.320 It'll change you.

01:21:00.540 I'll tell you about that coming up in just a second.

01:21:03.520 Stand by.

01:21:06.500 You know, for years, we looked the other way as corporate America has pushed messaging that alienates us, attacks our values, our reason, our common sense, all of that.

01:21:15.900 Well, I want you to join me and millions of patriotic Americans who would like to do business with people that are not assaulting everything that we believe.

01:24:33.580 800-227-6100.

01:24:37.840 We welcome to the program a man whose name I have a hard time pronouncing.

01:24:44.620 It's Jip Decker.

01:24:46.900 That's true.

01:24:48.120 J.P. Decker is the Mercury One executive director.

01:24:51.260 He was a senior producer on this program for a long time.

01:24:54.740 Then he stabbed me in the back and went to work for Fox.

01:24:57.620 I told him not to, but he did.

01:24:59.460 And he was successful there.

01:25:00.540 But then he comes crawling.

01:25:03.680 Then he comes crawling back.

01:25:05.480 And I said, okay, I love people.

01:25:08.780 Charity.

01:25:09.720 Go be the executive director.

01:25:11.260 I did come back.

01:25:12.220 I mean, let's make that.

01:25:13.980 I came back.

01:25:14.380 You did come back.

01:25:15.480 I did come back.

01:25:15.980 I don't remember the crawling part.

01:25:17.840 But J.P., you were just in Maui.

01:25:21.040 And we were talking about this on last night's show.

01:25:25.840 And you told me, and it's strange.

01:25:31.760 There's a story in the New York Times today about how, you know, white people have just done Hawaii so badly.

01:25:39.080 And the same with Puerto Rico.

01:25:40.640 And, you know, it's all from the, I don't know, the Christian missionary.

01:25:44.160 I mean, it's just so convoluted.

01:25:46.400 And I know that some people in Hawaii and some people in other places that are faraway states think that we don't think of them as Americans.

01:26:02.620 And you were telling me that you had a hard time at the beginning because people just would look at you and go, oh, you're from the mainland.

01:26:12.540 And then that was a problem.

01:26:13.780 Yeah.

01:26:14.300 Oh, yeah.

01:26:14.660 Anytime, anywhere that I went to, the first thing they thought, I was going to bring wads of cash and buy them out.

01:26:20.960 I mean, and they said, oh, we've already had many people come in, nonprofits.

01:26:25.080 Everyone say, oh, yeah, as long as you put your logos up somewhere and make sure you tell people that we're the ones helping you, we will help you.

01:26:33.780 And I always would tell them there's no cameras.

01:26:37.240 A couple people, we didn't film until after we talked to them for a long time.

01:26:40.920 But I said, you know, we don't have cameras.

01:26:42.640 We're not here for that.

01:26:43.300 I'm here to ask how you're doing and how I can help as a nonprofit make Lahaina Lahaina again.

01:26:48.700 And that would disarm them and help them to know that I'm not in it for gain.

01:26:53.300 I'm in it to help.

01:26:55.380 Right.

01:26:55.480 And what we do at Mercury One is we'll go into these disaster situations when we're in Florida now, right?

01:27:02.220 Yeah, we are.

01:27:02.960 So we go into these disaster situations and we assess.

01:27:08.040 I mean, first thing we do is we go to our go-to partners that are always, you know, first in.

01:27:13.900 And we say, what do you need?

01:27:15.020 And we give them the supplies or whatever it is they need.

01:27:18.240 Then we go in and we find the locals that are actually doing something that they can do best more than anybody else.

01:27:28.420 And we are not there.

01:27:31.880 We never are there to get our pictures taken or hand them a giant check or anything.

01:27:37.900 We don't have a PR firm that is for Mercury One because we don't do that.

01:27:44.700 It's truly about helping and enabling people to help themselves.

01:27:49.180 Yep.

01:27:49.320 And when we went in, we helped, you know, provide food, water, you know, and this was through our partners, electricity and Wi-Fi.

01:27:57.100 But now there's a bigger problem.

01:27:59.120 And that's what we're focused on now, which is the mental health crisis that's happening there.

01:28:02.740 And it hasn't shown itself yet, but it will soon.

01:28:07.800 You know just what happened with COVID, how sketchy all of our families are right now because of mental illness or depression or things that our country and our world is going through a fundamental transformation, to quote Barack Obama.

01:28:28.300 And it is transforming us as people.

01:28:31.340 And we're not aware that we are so disconnected from reality.

01:28:38.820 And now add, knowing that your family burned to death in the house and you're a survivor, they didn't survive.

01:28:47.300 There's a lot of survivor's remorse going on with a lot of the people that I spoke with.

01:28:51.100 I mean, Glenn, all of us have been through some kind of traumatic experience.

01:28:54.760 Not like that.

01:28:55.440 Not like that.

01:28:56.360 And that's what a lot of the survivors were telling me.

01:28:58.620 They even said, I don't know how to help my brothers or my sisters or my family or my friends that were there.

01:29:05.560 And that is a problem, and that's why they feel left.

01:29:10.560 That's why they feel left alone, because they're so focused on helping each other.

01:29:15.120 And all the outside groups are saying, well, we'll give you this money, we'll give you this.

01:29:19.440 But they're not helping with the mental side of things.

01:29:22.240 They haven't even processed what they've been through, and it's been almost a month.

01:29:25.340 So you told me this last night live on the show, and I just had this feeling that, okay, that's what we should do.

01:29:33.540 And so what I want to ask is, if you are a doctor, you're somebody who you deal in PTSD, EMDR, any kind of trauma, and that's your deal, would you be willing to volunteer to be a part of our team?

01:29:56.940 We'd like as many as possible to go over and help them with mental health.

01:30:03.560 We don't – all we want them to see is people from the mainland that just love them and don't want anything from them.

01:30:13.020 We just came because we love you, and you're part of us, not only the human family, but the American family.

01:30:20.120 And I think – I'm getting goosebumps when I say this – I think we can make a real difference in just the love quotient to take this tragedy and turn it into an opportunity to heal much more than just Lahaina.

01:30:36.660 Yeah, there was a moment, quite a few moments, when the question that I would ask anyone that I was with was, how are you doing?

01:30:43.760 And that's all that mattered.

01:30:44.880 And they just would cry and tell me their story and their pain that they're going through.

01:30:48.600 And then they would tell me about the suicides that have happened already and that they don't want anyone else to die.

01:30:55.220 You know, it's amazing.

01:30:56.580 I remember on 9-11, I remember we went out that night.

01:31:04.240 We were in Tampa, and I think you were probably there, Stu.

01:31:08.060 Oh, yeah, we were together that night.

01:31:09.120 And that night, we went to Outback Steakhouse.

01:31:11.820 We went to Outback Steakhouse.

01:31:13.080 Yes, one of the weirdest dinners of all time.

01:31:15.140 Ever, ever.

01:31:15.940 It was so weird.

01:31:17.040 And I remember we got into the parking lot, and somebody was there, and one of us just said to that person, like, they were our old friends, but we didn't know them.

01:31:27.580 And we said, how are you doing?

01:31:30.400 And we sat, and they may have cried.

01:31:33.480 I don't remember, because it happened so often.

01:31:36.040 But we just saw each other, truly, as brothers and sisters, and we were all going through something.

01:31:42.660 Yeah.

01:31:43.200 And it's really important.

01:31:46.120 And they're not – I mean, can you imagine processing this, and where am I going to have my next meal?

01:31:54.300 Where am I going to sleep?

01:31:57.860 What about my clothing?

01:31:59.500 I don't have any documents left.

01:32:01.500 I don't have any pictures of my family.

01:32:04.180 I've got nothing.

01:32:06.120 Can you imagine just processing that, let alone what you probably saw?

01:32:12.460 And, you know, 10 years ago, where I'm from, Maura, Oklahoma, was destroyed.

01:32:18.560 My home, my family were safe, but everything was gone.

01:32:21.480 And within 12 hours, you said, JP, let's go.

01:32:24.560 And we went with one of our partners in Mercury One, and to see that firsthand, it still affects me, and I wasn't even there to see my town destroyed.

01:32:34.100 But, you know, these people are seeing something I've never seen.

01:32:39.120 When I was there, driving through it, the first time, Sean Foster, who was with me, we were driving through, we were shocked.

01:32:46.260 It is gone.

01:32:47.920 It's ashes.

01:32:49.000 It's really – I've never experienced anything like this except for when Joe Biden – no, except for the Yellowstone fires.

01:33:00.540 And I drove through right after the Yellowstone fire.

01:33:04.080 And when something has been made into ash, it is – the power of fire is overwhelming.

01:33:14.600 And that was just, you know, trees and, God forbid, some animals.

01:33:19.400 This is man.

01:33:21.940 Man.

01:33:22.760 Yeah.

01:33:23.560 Yeah.

01:33:23.920 And these kids have seen things that no one should ever see.

01:33:27.560 Okay, so we are looking for doctors that are trained, PTSD, counseling, EMDR, pastors that have dealt in trauma.

01:33:39.880 We would love you to join our team.

01:33:43.260 We'll set you up and get you there if you would just do a few days.

01:33:49.260 And it's not a vacation.

01:33:50.920 Right.

01:33:51.380 No.

01:33:51.760 But please contact us.

01:33:54.880 You can reach out to – the email address is communications at mercuryone.org.

01:34:02.540 That's communications at mercuryone.org.

01:34:05.940 I know we – do we have Chad on?

01:34:08.720 I haven't talked to Chad about this.

01:34:10.160 Have you?

01:34:10.460 I just got off the phone with him before I came in here.

01:34:12.960 Okay.

01:34:12.980 So Chad Robichaux is just fantastic.

01:34:16.540 He's with Mighty Oaks.

01:34:17.620 He helped – or we helped him in Afghanistan and other places.

01:34:23.700 And this is kind of what they do with people who are experiencing PTSD from being in battle overseas.

01:34:32.240 Chad.

01:34:33.860 Hey, Glenn.

01:34:34.980 We're going to find other ways to meet up, but glad to be on.

01:34:38.060 I know.

01:34:38.460 I know.

01:34:38.920 Every time we see each other, it's because there's something horrible that has happened.

01:34:44.240 Yeah, that's right.

01:34:45.360 So did JP get a chance to really explain this to you on what we want to do?

01:34:52.760 We want to send – if your team can spare anybody – I know you're all over the world and still in Afghanistan – if you can spare anybody that really can help on the spiritual healing needs and the trauma needs?

01:35:10.700 Yeah, you know, JP and I talked, and I went right to our – when this first kicked off, you know, my heart was right away like, hey, we have to get people out there and help.

01:35:20.880 And then you always had the concern, you know, am I going to be in the way?

01:35:24.240 Am I really needed?

01:35:26.020 You know, you don't want to clutter the – but after talking to JP and talking to other people on the ground there, there's a massive need for people to come in, volunteers to come in and just be with people, pray with people, help.

01:35:37.700 Give people some insights on, you know, how to move forward.

01:35:41.560 And so, you know, Mighty Oaks has done that all over the world.

01:35:43.840 We do that for our troops here.

01:35:45.240 And we've done that in partnership with you in Afghanistan and in Ukraine.

01:35:49.660 I have teams still working in Afghanistan and Ukraine right now.

01:35:51.980 But as we assess this, we certainly have the bandwidth to do it, something we're willing to take on and feel obligated to take on.

01:35:58.340 But this is our country and our fellow people and our fellow countrymen.

01:36:03.300 And, you know, Hawaii is not some far-off land.

01:36:06.060 No, it's ours.

01:36:07.240 And we want to go and help.

01:36:09.480 Chad.

01:36:09.940 Yes, so, JP, we're in.

01:36:12.480 Okay.

01:36:13.320 Let me ask you, can you give us something out of all the tragedy that you're involved in all over the world?

01:36:20.420 Give me something today that I can chew on all day and go, wow, that is really good to know.

01:36:27.160 Give me something good.

01:36:30.140 I mean, I think through the tragedy around the world, especially, I think, where I've seen it most is in Ukraine,

01:36:36.080 where you've seen people that literally lost everything, just like the people in Hawaii.

01:36:40.260 You see people at their most vulnerable time and their weakest moment find hope that they never found before,

01:36:46.640 find strength and resiliency they never found before.

01:36:48.480 And the way they find that is through community.

01:36:51.120 I think in most cases, people in America especially, but all over the world, we're getting busy lives

01:36:56.820 and we live our independent lives and we kind of don't wave at our neighbors.

01:37:01.200 And when crisis happens, I guess people come together and lock arms.

01:37:05.420 And it's actually a beautiful thing.

01:37:07.780 I was in a place called Kharkiv, Ukraine, in a bunker with 300 people.

01:37:12.940 And most of them had lost family members.

01:37:15.260 They lost their homes.

01:37:16.020 They lost their everything.

01:37:16.960 And I woke up in the morning and they asked me to come out from the bunker and be with them in this large open area they had.

01:37:24.300 They had 300 people in there all singing praise and worship.

01:37:28.280 And these aren't people that normally would, you know, church attenders or whatever, they're just worshiping God, people that lost everything.

01:37:36.120 And it just like took me back.

01:37:37.120 Like, how could these people be – it really just convicted me because I'm like, how could these people be so joyous right now in such a – the hardest moment of their life?

01:37:46.180 And they lost family members and everything.

01:37:47.580 And it's just people coming together, finding hope and locking arms and supporting each other and being there for each other.

01:37:53.580 And, you know, I think in those moments – and I know you're asking for volunteers and some people may be thinking, like, how do I even help?

01:37:59.080 What do I say?

01:38:00.220 And I was in that moment in Ukraine.

01:38:02.080 I'm like, they wanted me to get up and talk.

01:38:03.580 I'm like, what do I say?

01:38:04.800 And the only thing I could say in that moment was, I don't know what you're going through.

01:38:08.040 No one's ever attacked besides 9-11, but no one's ever – I never had to fight for my home and my family.

01:38:14.440 But all I can say is that we care.

01:38:16.760 People care.

01:38:17.920 And we're here.

01:38:18.500 I'm right here.

01:38:19.240 I came here to be with you from America to Kharkiv.

01:38:22.660 And I'm here with you right now to show you, if anything else, that people care.

01:38:26.280 And, you know, if volunteers go out there, sometimes you don't have to have all the answers, but you can just sit in front of someone and say, I came here because I care about you.

01:38:33.200 You're not alone in this.

01:38:34.380 I might not understand what you're going through, but I'm here with you.

01:38:38.040 And sometimes that's enough.

01:38:40.540 Chad, thank you.

01:38:42.260 Could I ask you to hold for one minute?

01:38:44.720 I want to ask you another question on the air, but it's not related.

01:38:47.720 Absolutely.

01:38:48.300 All right, great.

01:38:48.880 Hang on just a second.

01:38:49.640 Chad Robichaux.

01:38:50.820 He's the author of Saving Aziz, which is an amazing story out of Afghanistan.

01:38:56.880 And he is also the founder of the Mighty Oaks Foundation and a U.S. Marine Corps force recon veteran.

01:39:04.060 Okay.

01:39:05.020 JP, thank you very much.

01:39:06.240 Again, it's communications at mercuryone.org.

01:39:09.600 Let's go make a difference.

01:39:11.160 Do something good.

01:39:12.580 Despite the looming uncertainty of U.S.-China standoff, the war in Ukraine and China's property meltdown, investors are still hanging tight to gold.

01:39:22.880 And why not?

01:39:23.880 Central banks are buying.

01:39:25.300 Emerging markets are showing strong retail demand.

01:39:28.660 Gold just saw its longest winning streak since July.

01:39:32.220 Experts are even predicting now it'll reach a record of $2,250 an ounce soon.

01:39:37.120 That would be remarkable if that actually hit that.

01:39:42.840 You don't root for gold to go up.

01:39:45.300 I buy it as a hedge against insanity.

01:39:48.340 And everything that is happening now, right now, please, please consider putting your dollar into something solid, something tangible.

01:39:57.260 Please, if you right now go to Goldline and call them up at 866-GOLD-LINE, they have a deal going on where you can buy 25 quarter ounce gold Mayflower rounds and they will give you a whopping 25 one ounce silver Mayflower rounds free.

01:40:15.900 So you buy 25 of the quarter ounce gold, you get 25 of the one ounce silver for free.

01:40:23.480 Doesn't extend to IRA orders.

01:40:25.500 And as always, Goldline has your back on the economic roller coaster.

01:40:28.800 Find out if it's right for you.

01:40:30.540 Please call 866-GOLD-LINE, 866-GOLD-LINE or goldline.com.

01:40:35.960 10 seconds, station ID.

01:40:45.900 Hey, Chad, you've been over again and again and again in Ukraine, and I trust you.

01:40:53.360 And I don't know if you can say anything.

01:40:55.300 And if you say, I can't be frank right now, just say it.

01:40:58.740 Yeah.

01:40:59.620 But, you know, I saw an interview with Orban from Hungary with Tucker Carlson.

01:41:08.360 And Orban was clear.

01:41:09.960 He's like, you're not even close to these guys winning.

01:41:12.220 It's not even a question on Ukraine if they can win.

01:41:18.180 They can't.

01:41:18.920 It's futile.

01:41:21.560 Is that true?

01:41:22.580 Yeah.

01:41:23.700 You know, Ukraine, obviously, standing independently, has no chance to win.

01:41:29.520 Russia would take them in a day. 0.80

01:41:31.100 But I think what a lot of people don't realize, and people talk about the fear of World War III,

01:41:34.960 is that this actually is World War III.

01:41:36.600 In my opinion from being there, this is World War III.

01:41:38.960 It's just different.

01:41:39.440 And it's not World War II where you see people storming the beaches of Normandy.

01:41:42.760 This is a proxy war with 30 countries around the world fighting.

01:41:46.240 So Ukraine is just this massive place where you have Iranian drones killing Ukrainians.

01:41:53.120 You have U.S. drones killing Russians.

01:41:55.080 So this isn't what people see on the surface as a Ukraine versus Russian war.

01:42:02.520 This is, I would say, a proxy World War taking place on battlefield of Ukraine.

01:42:08.840 Can this be...

01:42:09.780 For me, it's much more complex.

01:42:11.920 Can this be played out without going to a World War that everyone would recognize as a World War or nuclear war?

01:42:22.200 It certainly can with a competent leader in the White House of the United States.

01:42:27.800 You know, you have President Biden making a decision to send hundreds of billions,

01:42:33.940 hundred plus billion, $130 billion there, which is provoking and prolonging this war.

01:42:41.540 I mean, it disincentivizes anyone to end it.

01:42:44.900 Zawinski's certainly not going to end it when he's getting, you know, over $100 billion from the United States.

01:42:49.800 Why would he? He's becoming one of the richest men in the world over it.

01:42:53.600 We know Vladimir Putin's not going to back down because of his pride.

01:42:58.220 So, you know, if a competent leader would be there in the White House, I think this thing could be over in two weeks.

01:43:06.480 And, you know, President Trump continues to kind of boast in the campaign trail that he could end this thing in a week or a day.

01:43:13.140 And, you know, I think he's right.

01:43:17.480 I think he could.

01:43:18.080 I think any strong leader that's willing to take the right stance in this, one, economically, like Reagan did against Gorbachev,

01:43:26.940 because Russia has one commodity, oil, for the sanction, to lead a sanction.

01:43:33.180 But also, I think you could use Article 5, NATO Article 5, in our favor.

01:43:40.240 We know Russia's committed war crimes. 0.75

01:43:42.080 You can move in a peacekeeping force, a humanitarian force for the people of Ukraine.

01:43:46.680 Wow.

01:43:47.000 And if you move that up with a ceasefire, then, you know, Putin would not risk Article 5 violations.

01:43:54.180 You could have a standstill there.

01:43:55.660 Chad, thank you.

01:43:56.720 Chad Robichaux, Mighty Oaks Foundation.

01:44:19.220 Whatever it is, you can do it, and you don't hurt.

01:45:22.220 People of Kentucky, please, for the love of Pete, just stand up and call Mitch McConnell's

01:45:39.060 office and say, we love Mitch McConnell, or we don't love Mitch McConnell, whatever.

01:45:44.000 This is not about politics.

01:45:45.460 It's about our country.

01:45:46.680 For the love of Pete, resign.

01:45:49.820 Resign.

01:45:50.220 At least the leadership, resign.

01:45:53.520 Yeah.

01:45:53.940 A hundred percent needs to be done today.

01:45:56.340 Should be done today.

01:45:57.080 Done today.

01:45:58.300 Man, obviously, is not capable of doing this job.

01:46:02.380 And look, there are always political considerations, right, that are involved in this.

01:46:07.180 We're adults.

01:46:08.240 We know this.

01:46:09.400 But the law was passed a couple years ago in Kentucky that the Democratic governor wouldn't

01:46:15.020 just be able to name a Democrat.

01:46:16.300 The Republicans will be able to put three people forward and he will choose from that group

01:46:22.100 of three people.

01:46:23.320 So you're going to get a Republican replacement.

01:46:26.060 It is time.

01:46:27.480 This poor guy who, I mean, we've had all sorts of problems with Mitch McConnell over the years,

01:46:33.400 but the man is clearly suffering and you have to do something.

01:46:37.840 It's got to be like a petite mall, you know, there's grand mall seizures and then petite 0.89

01:46:44.200 mall seizures and they don't, they just kind of like, you kind of freeze, you know.

01:46:49.200 You know more about this than I do.

01:46:50.740 I have two daughters with cerebral palsy, or I'm sorry, with epilepsy.

01:46:55.920 So I'm thankful I don't know that much about it.

01:46:58.100 But to me, you know, when I think of a seizure, I think of something a little more, almost violent,

01:47:04.080 right?

01:47:04.300 Well, that would be a grand mall.

01:47:05.700 Mary has grand malls.

01:47:08.400 And when, especially if she was off medication, they are severe.

01:47:12.740 When she was in the hospital before her brain surgery, they took her off all medication to

01:47:19.000 just see, you know, to monitor the seizures.

01:47:21.820 And we were in the room and she started having a seizure.

01:47:24.660 We've never seen that before.

01:47:26.460 And the whole family was freaked out.

01:47:28.420 We were like, what is happening to her?

01:47:31.360 What is going on?

01:47:32.680 And it's full grand mall and it is violent.

01:47:36.560 A petite mall is, it'll be like, my other daughter has petite malls. 1.00

01:47:42.740 And she is, you'll be talking to her and they don't last very long.

01:47:48.800 And you'll be talking to her and she'll just kind of be looking at you or staring off in

01:47:52.640 space.

01:47:53.060 And then she'll say, I'm sorry, what did you say?

01:47:55.640 And she just, it just shut down for a second.

01:48:00.200 Because he did sort of come back after it.

01:48:03.880 Sort of.

01:48:04.120 Sort of like he mumbled and he couldn't really form his words, but you could tell he once

01:48:08.880 again was having thoughts.

01:48:11.220 Here he is.

01:48:12.000 Here he is.

01:48:13.540 If you didn't see this.

01:48:14.440 Senator Daniel Cameron.

01:48:15.780 Do you have a comment on Daniel Cameron?

01:48:17.960 This is the second one.

01:48:19.160 Well, I think he doesn't address it on me very close.

01:48:26.040 Far and away the best candidate we could have nominated.

01:48:28.740 I mean, stop.

01:48:34.000 You know, the first question that put him into this, whatever this event is, was...

01:48:39.660 You're going to rerun in 2026.

01:48:40.800 Yeah.

01:48:41.020 How do you feel about 2026?

01:48:42.460 Which is laughable.

01:48:44.220 Comical.

01:48:44.720 If it was not so sad, it would be comical.

01:48:46.480 Like, they're asking him if he's going to run again?

01:48:48.400 The guy can't even stand there.

01:48:50.280 Term limits.

01:48:51.200 Term limits.

01:48:51.800 But in the meantime, please, for the love of Pete, you know what this is?

01:48:58.260 This is the people around these people.

01:49:01.520 It shows you the power of the machine.

01:49:04.820 It doesn't matter.

01:49:06.020 They don't care if the person is cognitively there or not.

01:49:12.100 It just runs.

01:49:13.560 They'd rather have somebody like that who's no longer capable of doing it themselves because then they can just do what they want.

01:49:24.080 And he gets the blame or he gets the credit.

01:49:27.580 But it's nobody.

01:49:28.260 You know, Stu and I were joking off the air today.

01:49:30.160 I'm thinking about running for John Cornyn's office.

01:49:32.880 Okay.

01:49:33.720 And but not by myself with Stu because Stu does, you know, he's like got that kind of mind where he likes to research and all of that stuff.

01:49:42.280 I don't.

01:49:43.960 But I'm good at giving speeches and stuff.

01:49:46.440 You give a hell of a speech.

01:49:46.840 Right. 0.99

01:49:47.240 I'd probably suck as a senator if it was just me. 0.98

01:49:50.440 But I think Stu and I would be good. 0.98

01:49:52.340 So I'm going to run.

01:49:53.400 But I just be honest with you.

01:49:55.620 I'm the guy saying it.

01:49:56.960 But this is really the guy who's really doing all the research.

01:49:59.740 And I'll be honest.

01:50:01.060 I'll probably outsource it to Bangladesh just so you guys know.

01:50:04.220 Right.

01:50:04.500 I mean, you can't be expected to do all of it.

01:50:07.040 It just seems like a lot of work.

01:50:08.620 Yeah, it does.

01:50:08.960 It would be nice if they were just honest about it.

01:50:10.520 But vote for us.

01:50:11.480 You know, I'd rather honestly, I'd rather have that approach.

01:50:14.520 If you were if everybody was just being honest.

01:50:16.600 Look, I'm I'm really good at this.

01:50:18.120 I'm not good at that.

01:50:19.400 You know, I'll be really, really.

01:50:20.860 I'm there on this, but I'm going to need some help over here.

01:50:23.880 Wouldn't that be great and refreshing?

01:50:25.660 Instead, what you get is.

01:50:29.920 And by the way, this is, of course, going to work out terribly for all of us.

01:50:33.780 You will be punished for what's going on right now, because if Mitch McConnell does step down

01:50:37.620 from leadership, likely Cornyn will run for it.

01:50:40.040 He's already said he will.

01:50:41.240 He'll probably win.

01:50:42.800 And he's already a terrible senator from Texas.

01:50:45.960 He used to be good at one point.

01:50:48.080 Way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way back.

01:50:50.520 I think maybe Kennedy was president.

01:50:53.640 I'm not sure.

01:50:54.460 Right.

01:50:54.880 Like, it's is he better than, you know, I don't know.

01:50:59.320 Biden?

01:51:00.620 Thank you.

01:51:01.360 How low our expectations are.

01:51:03.520 Right.

01:51:03.540 Like he's he's he's he has a terrible voting record.

01:51:06.580 He should be.

01:51:08.140 And it's embarrassing because it's Texas.

01:51:09.760 Right.

01:51:10.080 Like if if he was in Maine, I mean, you go, OK, right, whatever.

01:51:13.960 Fine.

01:51:14.220 But like the fact that you're getting this performance out of Texas and you're about to get it

01:51:18.560 nationwide, I will not be surprised at all if he actually wins, which is if he wins that,

01:51:24.020 I think we should run.

01:51:25.120 I think it should be.

01:51:26.860 Glenn Stu, you know, I mean, just Glenn Stu.

01:51:29.760 This is not a job I want.

01:51:30.960 Did you?

01:51:31.160 It's not a job.

01:51:31.880 I've worked closely enough with you.

01:51:33.620 Would we be willing to do it together?

01:51:36.200 Wouldn't we be willing to do it together?

01:51:37.800 Yeah, I guess.

01:51:38.700 Yeah.

01:51:39.000 If it would be good for the country, it'd be good.

01:51:40.840 Can we outsource it to Bangladesh?

01:51:42.700 No, not Bangladesh.

01:51:43.900 Maybe.

01:51:45.800 I mean, I'll go on Upwork and just post the job.

01:51:48.560 I'm like to say Texas senator to see if someone will take it for eight dollars an hour.

01:51:53.680 But it's just look, you said it before, Glenn term limits, term limits.

01:51:59.820 I know some people don't like it.

01:52:01.860 I will say it is among the most popular policy proposals in our discourse.

01:52:08.160 We're talking about 80% support across the board.

01:52:13.600 And honestly, it also, while it's more popular among Republicans, it is also very popular even among Democrats and also among independents.

01:52:21.820 You're talking about, you know, the easiest, the most common policy proposal is three terms in the House, two terms in the Senate.

01:52:28.660 That would get you 18 years in this job.

01:52:34.680 18 years in these two jobs.

01:52:37.540 You'd have a lot of influence.

01:52:38.840 You'd have 18 years.

01:52:40.080 That's plenty.

01:52:41.920 Plenty of time for you to do what you need to do and go live an actual life outside of Washington, D.C.

01:52:48.220 It would be a thing that would eliminate all of these situations, largely.

01:52:52.800 I mean, I guess someone could run for the first time at 80 and there could solve a problem.

01:52:57.400 But...

01:52:57.880 Well, you know what?

01:52:58.600 If they don't act to 80, then I'm fine.

01:53:00.000 If you can win at 80, you can win at 80.

01:53:01.640 Yeah.

01:53:01.940 You know what I mean?

01:53:02.380 But the problem is the benefits of the incumbency are so powerful and the system is set up to punish anyone who's not an incumbent when it comes to money and influence and all these other things that these guys just win.

01:53:19.040 I mean, Dianne Feinstein, everyone knew she was incoherent when she won last time. 0.98

01:53:24.020 This isn't something that happened in the middle of her term.

01:53:25.820 I think Mitch McConnell could run today and they'd still vote him in.

01:53:29.440 Yeah, it's probably true.

01:53:30.400 I think he could still vote him in.

01:53:31.580 Yep.

01:53:32.140 Even after this.

01:53:33.040 And that's a huge problem.

01:53:35.360 The founders wanted a system in which people basically showed up, voted a couple of times and left, right?

01:53:40.740 They would go back and have normal jobs.

01:53:42.840 We're not there.

01:53:43.700 I would like us to get back to that.

01:53:45.280 But certainly we can dissuade people from making the incredible lust for power their entire career, right?

01:53:54.100 Like, can we at least limit them from that?

01:53:57.080 And this is something that would pass easily in state after state after state.

01:54:03.720 It's something you could, and I think you would have to, amend the Constitution to put in.

01:54:07.480 I don't think you could just pass a law on it.

01:54:09.680 It probably wouldn't fail.

01:54:11.500 It would probably fail in the courts if you tried to just do it as a law.

01:54:13.940 You need to do it as an amendment.

01:54:15.940 But it's overwhelmingly popular.

01:54:18.800 And why these candidates are not out there picking a policy that is this popular and running hard on it.

01:54:23.820 For the same reason they don't say yes to voter ID.

01:54:29.320 It's also, across the board, Democrat, Republican, very popular, in the 80%, if I'm not mistaken.

01:54:37.180 And they don't do it.

01:54:38.260 Why?

01:54:38.580 Because they want it.

01:54:40.640 They want the gray areas.

01:54:43.300 That's why.

01:54:44.080 And I honestly would be fine.

01:54:46.580 Not fine.

01:54:47.220 But I would accept a proposal that grandfathered, and I mean grandfathered these people in.

01:54:53.160 Great, great, great grandfathered these people in that are already in office.

01:54:56.120 If you're going to vote for it, and it's going to be locked in the Constitution, we'll let you stay as long as you want to stay.

01:55:02.620 Fine.

01:55:03.080 I'd be fine with that.

01:55:04.040 I just want this to stop.

01:55:05.580 This is something long-term that is a massive problem in our country.

01:55:08.200 For that to happen, though, you would have to bribe their staff.

01:55:11.820 Because the staff is the one that would make the decision for them.

01:55:14.580 Yeah, it's true.

01:55:16.040 It's so sad.

01:55:16.660 Let me give you one thing.

01:55:17.900 Now, I read this story, and I thought, oh, of course.

01:55:22.340 Biden administration sends $250 million more to Ukraine, taking advantage of Pentagon accounting error.

01:55:30.580 Okay, so you're like, oh, well, that's quite a number, a $250 million accounting error.

01:55:37.240 Wow, that's bad.

01:55:38.820 Still help me out, seeing that I'm the guy who's talking, but you're the guy who does the research.

01:55:43.560 Let's see if you understand this the same way.

01:55:46.540 The Department of Defense had been calculating the price of the equipment provided to Ukraine by telling the cost of the weapon that it was replacing.

01:55:59.520 So, if you had a weapon, but it was $1,000 when you bought it, but it's going to cost $2,000 to replace it, we were counting the $2,000.

01:56:12.820 Okay?

01:56:13.640 Okay.

01:56:14.100 Right?

01:56:14.360 Isn't that how you'd read it?

01:56:16.540 It was replacing, instead of the price of the weapon, actually going to the Ukrainian troops.

01:56:23.560 So, we have given now $41 billion to Ukraine.

01:56:33.460 In arms, because we've given much more than that overall.

01:56:35.820 Right.

01:56:36.180 Yeah, in arms.

01:56:36.960 Okay?

01:56:37.280 41.

01:56:38.140 The accounting error is not $250 million.

01:56:41.880 It's $6.2 billion because of we were counting on replacing it, which we have to.

01:56:55.580 That's the right way.

01:56:56.620 That's not an accounting error.

01:56:57.700 That's the right way to account for something.

01:57:00.200 And somebody in the Pentagon said, you know, we can send more if we just count the value of the used weapon.

01:57:07.600 And so, they're counting it that way, which allows them to send, because it's already been authorized, another $6.2 billion.

01:57:17.340 That's outrageous.

01:57:18.980 That is absolutely outrageous.

01:57:21.560 Incredible.

01:58:35.740 Have you seen the videos of the drones slamming into the buildings in Moscow?

01:58:57.940 I mean, America would not put up with that for a day.

01:59:03.140 Washington, D.C. being hit by a drone attack from another country?

01:59:06.500 No.

01:59:06.800 No.

01:59:07.160 Not a day.

01:59:08.400 No. 0.99

01:59:08.760 And, you know, we think that Vladimir Putin is just a brutal, bloodthirsty killer, which he is. 0.90

01:59:17.640 But for him to be restrained like this? 0.88

01:59:22.120 Can you imagine New York?

01:59:24.680 Canada's lobbing drones over the border, and they're just going into our buildings in New York City?

01:59:29.740 We would have zero tolerance of that.

01:59:32.380 Right.

01:59:32.800 Zero.

01:59:33.260 And he did respond to Ukraine.

01:59:35.420 But the restraint we're talking about is not his restraint toward Ukraine.

01:59:38.660 They're probably ours.

01:59:40.520 They're probably ours.

01:59:41.820 I don't know where else they'd be getting them.

01:59:43.020 And, you know, our policy is we're not giving Ukraine any weapons that can reach past 100 miles inside Russia.

01:59:51.900 So this would be yet another violation of our own red lines.

01:59:56.700 You know what?

01:59:57.640 There's a chance that Vladimir Putin is remaining restrained until the next election is over.

02:00:05.580 There's a chance, if this guy just doesn't bumble it so horribly, that Putin is like, look, stay, stay, stay, stay.

02:00:17.640 Because if we elevate this thing, it will mean missile launches.

02:00:21.440 Stop.

02:00:22.580 Just put up with it.

02:00:25.080 See if Trump wins.

02:00:26.800 Because Trump will end it in a day.

02:00:28.660 He really will.

02:00:30.360 Because he speaks Putin's language.

02:00:33.160 Enough.

02:00:33.500 And Putin, he'll, Trump will know because he's a dealmaker.

02:00:40.680 Everybody has to win and everybody's going to have to take less than what they want.

02:00:46.800 Wow.

02:00:47.420 I don't think this would have started if Donald Trump were president.

02:00:51.660 I don't know that you can end this in a day.

02:00:53.780 But, you know, I like your optimism.

02:00:55.780 I like his optimism on this.

02:00:57.460 I want a deal struck.

02:00:59.060 And, frankly, like, my top priority is not what the lines are between these two countries.

02:01:03.920 No.

02:01:04.140 I want this to stop.

02:01:05.760 Yeah.

02:01:06.020 And I think that that is a switch that our military and leadership needs to change.

02:01:12.380 They need to flip that switch.

02:01:13.980 Our military.

02:01:14.900 Ukraine is firing, howitzers, 60,000 shells every day.

02:01:23.820 Do you know how many we can make in a month?

02:01:28.300 They shell 60,000.

02:01:30.740 Boom.

02:01:31.560 60,000 howitzers a day.

02:01:34.960 We're sending our supply over there.

02:01:37.040 How many can we restock with new?

02:01:41.460 So we need, gosh, I mean, a lot.

02:01:45.880 20,000 is our current capacity in a month.

02:01:50.960 In a month.

02:01:51.460 In a month.

02:01:52.260 This guy is doing to our reserve, our ammunition reserve, exactly what he did to the oil reserve.

02:02:00.820 There's going to come a time, and it's going to come soon, where America will not be able to respond.

02:02:08.200 So we need, they need 1.8 million a month, and we can do 20,000?

02:02:13.800 Is that good?

02:02:14.380 A month.

02:02:14.660 Is that good?

02:02:15.980 No, it's sustainable.

02:02:17.700 Would you say it's sustainable?

02:02:18.840 No, no, no.

02:02:20.240 And I know you're all about sustainability.

02:02:22.360 That's true.

02:02:23.060 So, no, not sustainable.

02:02:25.300 Suboptimal.

02:02:25.980 Okay.

02:02:26.620 Suboptimal.

02:02:27.060 Suboptimal.

02:02:27.300 Okay.

02:02:27.640 Not optimal.

02:02:28.320 No, no.

02:02:29.020 Suboptimal.

02:02:29.500 Suboptimal.

02:02:29.980 I got it.

02:02:30.360 Yeah.

02:02:30.760 Yeah, that's a problem.

02:02:31.640 In fact, you know, close.

02:02:33.520 No.

02:02:33.940 Not even close.

02:02:35.140 Not close to optimal.

02:02:36.040 No.

02:02:36.540 Wow.

02:02:37.200 Sad.
