The Glenn Beck Program - The ATF's New 'Gun Show Loophole Fix' Is Unconstitutional in SO MANY Ways ｜ Guest： Vivek Ramaswamy

00:00:00.000 It is a fascinating conversation.

00:00:02.100 We'll talk more about it here coming up in just a second.

00:00:04.820 First, let me tell you about Rough Greens.

00:00:06.860 You want to do the right thing for your dog.

00:00:08.660 You love your dog as much as I love Uno.

00:00:11.780 I don't understand it when people have dogs and they don't take care of them.

00:00:18.960 Anyway, all of the good things our dogs do for us, you want to make sure he's healthy and happy.

00:00:25.840 I couldn't get Uno to eat ever.

00:00:28.100 We kept going to the vet and she'd say, he's got to gain weight.

00:00:32.700 He's got to gain weight.

00:00:33.540 I'm like, I can't get him to eat.

00:00:35.440 We have to hand feed him.

00:00:37.180 So when naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black came into my office and he told me, you know, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants.

00:00:42.980 I said, will he like his food?

00:00:46.080 He said, yeah, they usually go crazy for it.

00:00:48.700 Well, I put a bowl down and he did.

00:00:50.880 He went crazy for it.

00:00:52.260 He runs to his bowl now.

00:00:53.460 Actually, he's kind of slowly walking to his bowl lately, but I really believe it's changed his life.

00:01:01.380 It's Rough Greens.

00:01:02.800 R-U-F-F-Greens.com slash Beck or call 833-GLEN33.

00:01:06.820 That's 833-G-L-E-N-N-33.

00:01:09.660 833-GLEN33.

00:01:11.120 Rough Greens.com slash Beck.

00:01:12.480 We got no room to compromise.

00:01:30.220 We got to stand together.

00:01:32.320 It's going to survive.

00:01:36.260 Stand up, stand, and hold the line.

00:01:39.200 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:53.840 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:00.980 Well, we found out yesterday that the trial in Georgia with Donald Trump is going to be televised and streamed live.

00:02:08.740 However, reporters are not allowed to use any electronic device to be able to record it.

00:02:16.200 What the hell?

00:02:17.540 What the hell?

00:02:18.060 What?

00:02:19.640 Oh my gosh, nothing.

00:02:21.500 Even the simple things that are not political just don't make sense to me anymore.

00:02:27.080 Oh, and the ATF has finally closed that gun show loophole.

00:02:32.180 It's just going to require a little bit more paperwork for you.

00:02:36.000 Wait until you hear what the ATF is doing.

00:02:40.680 They are putting together a national registry, which Congress has always said no to, is absolutely unconstitutional.

00:02:52.820 But they're going to do it anyway.

00:02:56.420 They've already started.

00:02:57.500 We'll tell you that.

00:02:58.280 And also the people who were convicted yesterday.

00:03:01.200 A terrorist was convicted yesterday because he removed a fence, Stu.

00:03:07.500 He removed a fence.

00:03:09.340 Now, he got, what is it, 37 years, right?

00:03:15.040 He was 18 years.

00:03:16.820 I was going to say 15 or 17 years.

00:03:20.000 17 years.

00:03:21.500 So he's got 17 years.

00:03:24.000 The guy who burned down a police station burned it down in, I think it was Minneapolis.

00:03:31.600 He got four years.

00:03:32.460 But this is much more serious than burning a police station down.

00:03:38.040 I'm legitimately shocked he got any years for burning a police station down.

00:03:41.960 Amen.

00:03:42.420 I feel like that's progress.

00:03:43.700 It's almost good news.

00:03:45.140 We begin.

00:03:45.820 You're a progressive.

00:03:46.860 Yeah.

00:03:47.140 We begin in just a second.

00:03:49.020 Dolores wrote in about her experience with Relief Factory.

00:03:51.280 She said, I started taking Relief Factory not long ago.

00:03:54.400 So far, it has completely stopped the arthritis pain in my hands.

00:03:57.880 They were so bad.

00:03:58.920 It was impossible for me to do my sewing.

00:04:01.880 Not anymore.

00:04:02.820 Thank you so much, Relief Factor.

00:04:05.120 Dolores, thank you for listening.

00:04:06.920 Thank you for giving Relief Factor a try.

00:04:09.260 I'm glad you're getting your life back.

00:04:11.360 It is.

00:04:12.060 I mean, for me, it's a miracle.

00:04:14.180 I was in pain constantly.

00:04:16.160 I still have pain from time to time when it gets really bad.

00:04:19.540 But most of the time, I mean, I couldn't paint.

00:04:23.940 And most people don't know I'm a painter.

00:04:26.520 Yes, that's right.

00:04:27.460 Claude Monette and I have a lot in common.

00:04:32.220 Anyway, I had a really hard time because my hands would hurt so much.

00:04:37.940 I can paint now.

00:04:39.560 Relief Factory, much to the chagrin of really pretty much every person in the art world.

00:04:45.300 ReliefFactor.com.

00:04:46.660 It's ReliefFactor.com.

00:04:48.540 Go there now or you can call 800, the number 4-RELIEF.

00:04:51.880 800-4-RELIEF.

00:04:53.200 ReliefFactor.com.

00:04:54.420 Feel the difference.

00:04:55.480 Okay, so now here is the thing.

00:05:00.060 There is this gun show loophole.

00:05:02.300 You know that, Stu, right?

00:05:03.600 Huge loophole.

00:05:04.800 Almost all guns are bought through the gun show loophole.

00:05:08.580 Unless they're ghost guns.

00:05:11.840 Those are the only two types of guns.

00:05:13.520 Yeah.

00:05:13.680 But the kids in the mystery van have already unmasked the ghost gun.

00:05:19.440 That's true.

00:05:20.320 Okay, so.

00:05:20.900 Yeah.

00:05:21.060 And they would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for those pesky kids.

00:05:24.660 So the gun show loophole.

00:05:26.720 Do you know what it is?

00:05:29.300 Yes.

00:05:29.880 Yes, go.

00:05:30.420 The gun show loophole.

00:05:31.880 Yes, go, go.

00:05:32.580 It is when you go to a gun show.

00:05:34.840 Go, Speed Racer.

00:05:36.100 And there is someone there selling a private seller.

00:05:39.240 Go, Speed Racer.

00:05:40.340 Who is selling their guns.

00:05:41.740 And because they're a private seller and not a business, they don't have to go through all of the background checks.

00:05:48.160 Go, Speed Racer.

00:05:49.600 Go.

00:05:50.240 You got it.

00:05:50.840 Okay.

00:05:51.020 Very small percentage of guns sold this way.

00:05:53.240 Like, very small.

00:05:54.920 Yes.

00:05:55.320 Very small.

00:05:55.880 And basically what he said is absolutely right.

00:05:58.680 It's a private seller.

00:05:59.800 So if I have a gun to sell and I'm not a gun, you know, a gun store, I don't have my license, my FFL, I can sell my gun.

00:06:10.600 But it's a private transaction between two people.

00:06:14.140 Okay.

00:06:15.120 Well, you now have to prove that you're not in business looking for profit on your gun.

00:06:25.880 Now, hang on.

00:06:27.640 Hang on just a second.

00:06:30.720 I'm a capitalist.

00:06:33.040 Okay.

00:06:34.780 And I'm looking for profit.

00:06:36.520 I don't know about anybody else, but I think pretty much everybody, when you go to work, how dare you look for profit when you're at work?

00:06:44.000 I mean, that's why we go.

00:06:45.680 Yes.

00:06:46.000 Okay.

00:06:46.400 If I have a gun and it's worth more than I paid for and I can find somebody that wants to pay for that gun, bro, okay.

00:06:56.960 I mean, honestly, somebody just called us and said, you want to sell your house?

00:07:01.660 And I'm like, no.

00:07:03.940 We live in our house.

00:07:05.040 Yeah, we live in our house.

00:07:05.960 And they were like, but you were selling it.

00:07:07.760 And I'm like, yeah, we were.

00:07:09.580 And then it didn't sell.

00:07:10.760 So we remodeled.

00:07:11.700 And now we love our house.

00:07:12.920 So no, we don't want to sell.

00:07:15.060 Well, what would it take?

00:07:15.940 I came up with an enormous, crazy, outrageous number.

00:07:21.000 Okay.

00:07:21.100 Because you would, in theory, move out if they hit this.

00:07:24.060 You want to give me a crazy amount of money.

00:07:26.320 I'm like, I'm out of there tonight, man.

00:07:28.820 Right.

00:07:29.960 So, I mean, that's what you're looking for profit.

00:07:32.720 Right.

00:07:32.940 Are you looking to profit off your home?

00:07:34.960 Yes.

00:07:35.560 Oh, God.

00:07:35.940 Yes, I am.

00:07:37.100 So here's, and I'm not actually looking for it.

00:07:39.980 If you have a gun and somebody said, man, I just love that.

00:07:45.160 Would you ever sell it?

00:07:46.720 Well, I mean, for the right price.

00:07:48.280 How dare you?

00:07:49.200 What do you mean the right price?

00:07:50.840 You're a businessman now.

00:07:52.180 Yes.

00:07:52.460 You're a gun seller now.

00:07:53.840 Yeah.

00:07:54.160 Okay.

00:07:54.720 So all of this is happening because the 2022 new law that was passed.

00:08:04.860 Yeah.

00:08:05.680 Yeah.

00:08:06.160 It was passed.

00:08:07.260 And it is, what is it called?

00:08:08.580 The, it's like the really super good and safe law.

00:08:13.180 I don't have it in front of me here, but it was a, it was a new law passed by Congress

00:08:19.480 to keep us all safe, keep it all.

00:08:22.900 I mean, the common sense safety laws, you know, and basically what it said is the exact

00:08:30.060 same thing, it says in every piece of legislation.

00:08:34.020 Now, the secretary of the ATF, the head of the ATF can decide on the rules.

00:08:42.760 We just want you to keep us safe.

00:08:44.640 And so the ATF has said, oh, okay, well, we're going to keep you safe by closing that gun show

00:08:51.300 loophole by making sure anyone who ever sells a gun has to prove to us that they're not profiting

00:08:59.680 off of it.

00:09:01.820 Which is an insane standard.

00:09:03.580 I mean, how would you, how would anyone even prove that?

00:09:06.280 Insane.

00:09:06.720 I mean, yeah, you can say I bought it for this and I see they're like, they're doing,

00:09:10.380 they do this with tickets sometimes, right?

00:09:12.240 Where you buy tickets and they say you can't sell them for above face value.

00:09:16.520 Is that the standard they're going to use for this?

00:09:18.540 I mean, well, because obviously like a, a gun might depreciate after you buy it, right?

00:09:25.600 So do you have to figure out what the, like, well, that sounds like you'd be a business.

00:09:30.180 I mean, honestly, that's much more business-like, you know, I'm like, I don't know.

00:09:35.080 I mean, I looked on the internet, probably you could get one for about this price.

00:09:40.280 You know, I'll sell it to you for a little bit less or a little bit more.

00:09:46.020 That's what the average person would do.

00:09:47.780 But if I have to go, well, now, wait a minute, let's really look into it.

00:09:51.460 Doesn't that make me more of a business?

00:09:53.600 Seems like it.

00:09:54.400 Seems like it.

00:09:55.320 Seems like it.

00:09:56.020 Okay.

00:09:56.840 So this is, I love, I love this.

00:09:59.880 This is from the ATF director.

00:10:02.360 An increasing number of individuals engaged in the business of selling firearms for profit

00:10:07.400 have chosen not to register as a federal firearms license, licensee, as required by law.

00:10:14.240 Instead, they've sought to make money through the off book, illicit sales of firearms.

00:10:22.060 They're illicit?

00:10:22.720 Yeah.

00:10:23.320 Well, yeah, of course they are.

00:10:24.540 Yeah.

00:10:24.760 So why wouldn't you just go after the people doing the illicit things?

00:10:28.220 If it's already illegal.

00:10:29.900 That's not what illicit means.

00:10:31.940 Illicit means something else.

00:10:33.940 Okay.

00:10:34.260 It doesn't mean that it's illegal.

00:10:36.480 I don't know.

00:10:36.960 I guess it doesn't have to be illegal.

00:10:39.060 I guess it does.

00:10:39.840 Forbidden by law.

00:10:41.320 Look it up.

00:10:42.380 Forbidden by law, rules, or custom.

00:10:45.200 Okay.

00:10:45.580 So maybe they could go with a custom.

00:10:48.320 See?

00:10:48.880 And that's what businesses do.

00:10:50.660 They do custom things.

00:10:52.320 Right?

00:10:53.060 Yeah.

00:10:53.420 That's a different usage of that word.

00:10:55.200 Well, okay, Webster, thank you for stopping by.

00:10:58.740 So they make money.

00:11:01.200 So notice it is clearly, they are clearly going after and saying, these people are trying to make money

00:11:11.420 on the off-book illegal sale, illicit sale, of firearms.

00:11:17.720 These activities undermine the law, endanger public safety, create significant burdens on law enforcement,

00:11:26.520 and are unfair to the many licensed dealers.

00:11:28.740 I didn't read that before.

00:11:32.340 And make it unfair to the many licensed dealers who make a considerable effort to follow the law.

00:11:40.840 So now they're doing this.

00:11:42.240 Now they're good people.

00:11:42.540 Yeah, because the FFL is so, they're really working hard to keep us safe.

00:11:48.940 They've been vilifying these people who are selling guns for decades.

00:11:51.820 What?

00:11:51.940 And now they're the good guys?

00:11:53.460 For this particular moment?

00:11:54.620 What a crap heap.

00:11:56.960 ATF has issued rules that would apply more security checks on gun owners and sellers who use unregulated

00:12:02.780 stabilizing braces to effectively transform pistols into more deadly rifles.

00:12:08.440 So here's what they have to do now.

00:12:11.140 To be able to enforce this, they have to have a gun registry.

00:12:15.220 And the ATF has started a federal gun registry.

00:12:21.980 Can't do that.

00:12:23.820 Congress has been against that since 1791.

00:12:27.540 It's constantly, constantly in a new...

00:12:30.900 They don't care.

00:12:32.820 This is why you have Congress, you have the presidency, and the Supreme Court.

00:12:41.060 All of our problems stem around two things.

00:12:45.280 One, Congress has stopped doing their job.

00:12:51.720 And I'll tell you why they did it.

00:12:53.680 Because they just want to be re-elected.

00:12:56.520 That's it.

00:12:57.420 They don't want to do anything unpopular.

00:13:00.420 They just want to be the ones that you call up and say,

00:13:03.920 Hey, good job.

00:13:05.020 Or, you gotta stop these guys.

00:13:08.000 So they can be the police.

00:13:10.640 Except, they're not really the police.

00:13:12.940 Have you seen Congress actually go after the bad guys in the government?

00:13:18.120 I haven't.

00:13:19.120 Have you actually seen them stop really bad things?

00:13:22.600 Because I haven't.

00:13:24.120 What they did was say,

00:13:26.180 You know what?

00:13:27.160 We're going to pass that good and plenty law.

00:13:30.640 That everybody should be good and have plenty of everything.

00:13:34.000 And we're going to transfer that good and plenty law for interpretation by the secretary of that division of the United States government.

00:13:46.560 So, the cabinet secretary, who, you know, the good and plenty law now enables, he's like, good, okay, I'll tell you how we're going to make everybody good.

00:13:57.860 We're going to shoot you in the head if you're bad.

00:14:00.240 I mean, this is obviously an exaggeration, but that's what the secretary can do.

00:14:06.860 The secretary makes the law and the enforcement and everything else.

00:14:11.660 That is the job of Congress.

00:14:15.020 Congress, the reason why we're having these problems is because they didn't want to be held responsible for anything.

00:14:21.680 They gave up their power, and they gave it to the administrative state, which now means the presidency, the administrative state, is actually the state.

00:14:36.660 Congress is just like something you would put in your curio cabinet.

00:14:40.960 It was something, honestly, I should have all of the members of Congress and the Senate, and I should lock them in the American Journey Experience vault.

00:14:49.180 It's a cute little curio from a time gone by that is no longer of any use.

00:14:56.400 Let's just put it on the shelf.

00:14:58.280 That's really what it is.

00:15:00.600 And the reason why you feel so powerless is because of that.

00:15:06.700 When I say the ATF director, you know his name?

00:15:11.380 When I say, you know, the secretary of defense, do you know his name?

00:15:18.580 Maybe, maybe, most don't.

00:15:21.400 He's doing something wrong.

00:15:23.640 We got to get him out of there.

00:15:25.780 What power do you have?

00:15:27.780 What power do you have?

00:15:29.540 You have the power of Congress going to Congress and say, you got to remove this guy.

00:15:35.160 Oh, that's happening all the time.

00:15:36.620 Look at how corrupt and how out of control our government is.

00:15:42.440 They won't cut anyone's salary.

00:15:45.180 They won't fire anybody.

00:15:47.260 They won't hold anybody responsible for anything.

00:15:50.760 That's why you feel so powerless.

00:15:52.640 That's why your entire life feels like you're standing in line, get ready to get your driver's license.

00:15:58.020 And when you get, and you've been there for three hours, and you get to the front of the line, and they're like, this window's closed.

00:16:05.920 And you're like, wait, but hold it.

00:16:08.340 You have nobody to go to because their word is the law.

00:16:18.220 This is what's happening.

00:16:19.500 This is unconstitutional in a myriad of ways.

00:16:26.980 This is why we need the RAINS Act.

00:16:29.940 And I know this is like, oh, he's talking about the RAINS Act.

00:16:34.760 Wake me up when he stops.

00:16:37.180 The RAINS Act gives the power back to Congress.

00:16:42.380 Why do you want Congress to have that power if they're so bad?

00:16:46.060 Because they are so bad, they never get anything done, which allows the states and you to regulate your life.

00:16:59.720 It allows you and your city to regulate instead of the government saying, yeah, we're going to put everybody's name on a registry.

00:17:07.580 By the way, this is so inflammatory.

00:17:12.360 They know what this causes.

00:17:17.080 This causes all kinds of agitation.

00:17:20.820 This causes all kinds of distrust.

00:17:23.960 And they're never going to come for guns.

00:17:30.180 Do you believe they'll come for guns?

00:17:32.820 They'll actually go door to door?

00:17:35.840 God, I hope not.

00:17:37.220 Because that's what?

00:17:38.360 Right.

00:17:38.820 I don't want to live in a world.

00:17:40.000 That's what?

00:17:40.900 What happens?

00:17:42.360 I, the worst things possible happen.

00:17:45.000 Okay, good.

00:17:45.720 Thank you.

00:17:46.340 He's being very, very careful, which I never am.

00:17:50.080 That's why he'll be testifying against me at some point.

00:17:53.420 Oh, I can't wait.

00:17:54.360 I know.

00:17:55.100 But you're right.

00:17:57.120 Americans, there's, there's 350, almost 400 million guns now.

00:18:03.500 I think it is 400 million.

00:18:04.860 Yeah, 400 million guns.

00:18:07.820 We're not Sweden.

00:18:08.960 We're not Australia.

00:18:09.820 That ain't going to work.

00:18:14.600 Americans do know their First Amendment rights.

00:18:17.660 And you're just never going, unless you want a civil war.

00:18:23.120 So, if they want to come and get the guns, they are declaring war on the American people.

00:18:30.680 That's scary.

00:18:34.420 But I mean, they, like, this is something they say.

00:18:37.280 They always say, oh, we love the Second Amendment.

00:18:39.740 What are you talking about?

00:18:41.120 And then they do this stuff all the time.

00:18:43.940 You know the main difference between somebody who does something full-time and somebody who only does it, you know, as a hobby?

00:18:50.640 Well, I do this full-time.

00:18:53.660 Stu looks at his job more of a hobby.

00:18:57.680 Which one do you want?

00:18:59.400 You know, don't answer that question.

00:19:00.620 So, in the field of real estate, you want somebody, you know, that has maybe gone into the Hall of Fame.

00:19:08.800 You know what I'm saying, Stu?

00:19:09.860 Oh, yeah.

00:19:10.560 Yeah, sure.

00:19:11.400 That sounds...

00:19:12.360 Because it's hard to get in there.

00:19:14.300 It is hard to get in there.

00:19:15.620 That's why you shouldn't be in there.

00:19:16.920 I know.

00:19:17.100 We always thought it was hard to be in there.

00:19:20.700 Wow, someday you could be in the Hall of Fame.

00:19:23.780 No, apparently it's not like, you know, the NFL Hall of Fame.

00:19:27.580 Every organization has a misstep, you know, and this is just their very public misstep.

00:19:31.920 I was talking about real estate agents.

00:19:33.580 Can you please?

00:19:35.480 So, I started this real estate...

00:19:45.180 You'd be able to trust somebody.

00:19:46.280 I swear to you, I saw...

00:19:49.840 Oh, what was it?

00:19:52.340 I saw something just recently from a real estate ad where it was, again, no master bedroom.

00:19:57.620 It was owner's bedroom.

00:20:02.600 And I...

00:20:04.060 Master.

00:20:05.800 Master bedroom.

00:20:07.660 I can't take it.

00:20:09.840 Owner's bedroom.

00:20:10.940 I know.

00:20:11.200 And if I go into...

00:20:12.760 If I go into a house and I'm walking around with a real estate agent and they say, this

00:20:17.340 is the owner's bedroom, I don't trust them anymore.

00:20:19.840 I don't trust them anymore.

00:20:21.360 Unless they look at me and go, this is the owner's bedroom.

00:20:41.160 10 Seconds Station ID.

00:20:51.920 This is a fascinating story from earlier this week, Glenn, that I don't think we touched

00:20:54.900 on.

00:20:55.540 But if you remember back to the Heller decision, this was the big gun rights decision back in,

00:20:59.280 was it 2008, 2009, in that region?

00:21:01.300 It allowed guns.

00:21:02.520 You could actually have a gun in your house and you could defend yourself.

00:21:05.380 Yeah.

00:21:05.820 And this was a DC-based ruling.

00:21:08.220 Yes.

00:21:08.420 Now, of course, what do these cities do when they get a bad ruling from the Supreme Court?

00:21:11.680 They just try to go around it.

00:21:13.800 They go around the Constitution, around the courts, and pass laws that everyone knows are

00:21:17.800 also unconstitutional because of the previous ruling, but they do it anyway.

00:21:21.840 New York is in the middle of doing this as well right now with guns.

00:21:25.800 But so they passed all these laws and they made it very difficult for people to own guns.

00:21:30.300 One woman, she's Maggie Smith, she's going from North Carolina, she's driving through

00:21:33.800 DC, gets pulled over.

00:21:35.300 Oh boy.

00:21:35.680 Normal stop in 2014.

00:21:39.360 And she has no criminal record.

00:21:41.460 As she gets pulled over, she tells the officers, by the way, I have my weapon in the car.

00:21:46.180 They promptly arrest her.

00:21:47.860 They seize her gun.

00:21:49.160 They take her to jail.

00:21:50.900 Another guy, Gerard Casignol, he's from Maryland.

00:21:55.020 He was driving home from his job in Northern Virginia when he got pulled over in the district.

00:21:58.940 When police asked whether he had a gun in the vehicle, he said yes.

00:22:02.320 Gave them the combination to the lock safe where he kept it.

00:22:05.000 Oh my gosh, it was even in a lock safe.

00:22:07.000 Dragged to prison.

00:22:08.640 By the way, they lost their jobs, had all sorts of, lost a security clearance in one

00:22:13.060 of these cases.

00:22:14.400 Finally, this is wound through the courts.

00:22:15.860 They've complained about this, filed a suit against DC, and were awarded $5.1 million

00:22:21.220 this week.

00:22:22.980 I mean...

00:22:23.300 Good.

00:22:23.720 Good.

00:22:24.420 Good.

00:22:24.700 At least there's some...

00:22:26.700 Each?

00:22:26.740 Each?

00:22:26.800 I think it was $5.1 million total for six different people.

00:22:30.460 Oh, that's not enough.

00:22:31.640 But at least it's something.

00:22:32.780 Yeah.

00:22:33.140 At least it's something.

00:22:34.600 And at least kind of a good news at the end of that.

00:22:37.000 And, of course, yet another precedent may now have to break with another new law.

00:22:41.340 But at least now we're aware that you're not allowed to do those sorts of things.

00:22:46.900 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:22:48.880 I told you earlier this week that, you know, about that young kid, Jaden, who had his Gadsden

00:22:52.900 flag patch on his backpack in Colorado, everywhere now.

00:22:56.600 Story has been viewed millions and millions of times.

00:22:59.640 But here's the most interesting thing about that story.

00:23:01.780 In the end, the school reversed its policy.

00:23:05.300 Why?

00:23:06.240 Why?

00:23:08.060 Because he was informed and his mom was informed.

00:23:13.440 We can reverse woke programming in schools if kids and parents stand up and know what they're

00:23:20.100 talking about.

00:23:21.540 It has to come from a place of being really informed.

00:23:25.620 Jaden pushed back because he knew the truth.

00:23:28.000 And one of the reasons he knew the truth was because he's been reading Tuttle Twins books.

00:23:34.060 I mean, this is the best endorsement ever.

00:23:37.100 If you want your kids and your grandkids to be pushing back against the stuff in a healthy

00:23:41.660 way, you need to get them reading the Tuttle Twins books.

00:23:45.880 Make a difference in the lives of your kids right now.

00:23:48.540 Help them stand up for what's right.

00:23:50.860 Act now.

00:23:51.400 Tuttle Twins back to school special.

00:23:53.100 70% off their normal price.

00:23:55.320 That's TuttleTwinsBeck.com.

00:23:57.660 Do it now.

00:23:59.360 TuttleTwinsBeck.com.

00:24:02.160 Of course, one of the main reasons you know about that story is because of the Blaze.

00:24:05.820 BlazeTV.com slash Glenn.

00:24:07.540 Promo code is Glenn.

00:24:09.160 Save 10 bucks.

00:24:09.760 Okay, so the Department of Justice has successfully convinced a jury to convict five pro-life activists

00:24:27.920 for demonstrating at a controversial abortion clinic.

00:24:31.920 Now, this abortion clinic is, there is footage of one of the, I guess, nurses telling this

00:24:41.800 patient that you really got to take the Xanax before you meet with the doctor.

00:24:45.300 Take the Xanax.

00:24:46.440 Takes the Xanax.

00:24:47.620 That is the nurse giving this woman Xanax before she goes to meet to give her final decision

00:24:55.540 on abortion.

00:24:56.320 I don't know.

00:24:58.120 I don't know.

00:24:59.160 That seems a little wrong, you know.

00:25:02.800 So, one of the women, Lauren Handy, she's 28 years old.

00:25:07.860 She, you know her because she was the one who came in and said, hey, I have a bucket here.

00:25:17.600 And, uh, in the bucket are babies and it comes from this abortion clinic and no one did anything.

00:25:29.540 She was investigated.

00:25:31.520 No one did anything about the abortion clinic.

00:25:33.860 Okay.

00:25:34.680 That's illegal in, I don't know how many different ways.

00:25:37.820 So, she went to this clinic and she took, uh, John, uh, John Hinshaw.

00:25:46.960 He's 67 years old.

00:25:48.880 Heather Idoni.

00:25:50.220 She's 61.

00:25:51.240 William Goodman, 52.

00:25:52.980 Herb Garrity, 25.

00:25:55.040 They each got a $350,000 fine and now are facing 11 years in prison.

00:26:05.360 So, let me see if I have this right.

00:26:07.020 You can, you can beat within an inch of his life, Andy, no, and there's no penalty.

00:26:19.440 You can riot in the streets, set fire to buildings, no penalty.

00:26:25.680 One person got, uh, a fine and four years, was it four years, uh, in jail because they burned

00:26:38.220 down a police station.

00:26:39.680 Four years.

00:26:40.480 However, if you move a barrier or a fence at the Capitol, you'll get 17 years because you're

00:26:51.020 a terrorist.

00:26:52.300 You moved a fence.

00:26:55.740 Now, they say because he was a ringleader moving the fence.

00:27:02.480 Okay, what about the guy we have on video that the Department of Justice isn't even looking

00:27:09.900 for that actually cut the fence and rolled it up on video?

00:27:16.900 We have it.

00:27:18.660 Now, he's, they're not even looking for him.

00:27:21.020 Um, now, a leading, I'm sorry, leading medical groups for OG, OBGYN, they have just explicitly

00:27:38.460 endorsed abortion without restrictions.

00:27:41.820 Now, remember, Democrats will tell you, nobody's, nobody's asking for that.

00:27:48.740 Nobody's asking for that.

00:27:50.560 These are the same people that said it was the Republicans and the conservatives that wanted

00:27:54.780 to reimagine the police and fire all the police.

00:27:58.960 No, no, no, not, not true.

00:28:01.020 Not true.

00:28:02.860 The OBGYN said abortion is safe.

00:28:06.100 It improves and saves lives.

00:28:08.680 It improves and saves lives, lives.

00:28:14.600 What was it, 60% or was it 80%, Stu, that, uh, of women who have had an abortion, I think

00:28:21.820 it's 80%, said that they would, uh, they wish they wouldn't have aborted the child if they

00:28:26.980 had some lifeline, if they had somebody in their life that said, please don't do this,

00:28:33.280 if they had, if they had a way to be able to afford the baby.

00:28:36.760 So, it's not improving their life.

00:28:41.760 And it's certainly, I mean, you can't say you're saving lives because you're killing it.

00:28:47.180 So, even if it does save mom, it's a wash.

00:28:51.400 And it must be available, I'm quoting, without restrictions, without limitations, and without barriers.

00:29:03.820 It's just as critical as any other part of health care.

00:29:10.560 Huh.

00:29:10.940 That's, uh, that's fascinating.

00:29:14.920 Uh, it is commonly used, those who say they want, uh, to restrict access, commonly used

00:29:24.180 to strip access to abortion from, uh, patients such as theirs and prevent clinicians from providing

00:29:33.020 people with evidence-based health care.

00:29:39.180 Evidence-based health care.

00:29:43.000 What kind of health care is not evidence-based?

00:29:47.480 I would say, I would say abortion.

00:29:51.120 You're claiming that's not a baby.

00:29:53.140 It is.

00:29:54.160 You're claiming that it, you know, it's not human.

00:29:56.540 It is, uh, you're, you're, you're even saying no restrictions, no limitations, so I can kill

00:30:04.140 that baby at the moment of birth.

00:30:06.240 No, that's not evidenced health care.

00:30:09.420 That's infanticide.

00:30:11.460 That's murder.

00:30:12.880 That's what that is.

00:30:14.780 The, the vast majority of people do not agree with this.

00:30:20.780 Vast majority.

00:30:22.280 What's the number on that, Stu?

00:30:24.460 For the, you know.

00:30:26.160 Almost at birth.

00:30:27.600 No restrictions.

00:30:28.640 I will say there's polling all over the place on this issue.

00:30:31.080 I think the, the poll you're talking about is, um, the number was 33% said the abortion

00:30:37.200 was wanted.

00:30:38.400 43% said it was accepted, but inconsistent with their values and preferences.

00:30:43.060 24% said, uh, the abortion was unwanted or coerced.

00:30:47.700 So it's 67% say they're, they had a problem with it later.

00:30:52.940 Okay.

00:30:53.440 But I'm asking, I'm sorry.

00:30:54.780 Thank you for that.

00:30:55.780 Okay.

00:30:55.960 I'm, I'm at a new number.

00:30:57.600 Sorry.

00:30:57.960 I was looking up the old number.

00:30:59.140 Yeah.

00:30:59.500 I want a new number.

00:31:00.580 Uh, and you probably know this off the top of your head.

00:31:02.920 The number of people that are for late term abortions.

00:31:07.720 Oh yeah.

00:31:08.060 It's very low.

00:31:08.920 Um, third term abortion.

00:31:10.520 I want to say it's 14%.

00:31:11.520 I want to say it's 14%.

00:31:12.340 14.

00:31:13.540 Um, yeah, it's, it's about 80% are opposed to it.

00:31:16.780 When you talk about second, uh, trimester, uh, abortion, the number against it is, I think

00:31:23.080 67%.

00:31:24.320 So it's overwhelmingly, uh, the only time you see it at all approved is in that first trimester.

00:31:30.760 And the number is, is slightly positive.

00:31:33.140 And apparently, uh, apparently the, uh, American college of obstetricians and gynecologists, that's, they represent 60,000 OBGYNs, uh, here in America and South America, 60,000.

00:31:52.420 They're fine.

00:31:52.940 They're fine.

00:31:53.560 You know, they're fine.

00:31:54.660 They're fine.

00:31:55.560 You know, what do people know?

00:31:57.380 What do people know?

00:31:58.100 We're doctors.

00:31:59.060 We know that we can kill the baby at, or just before birth, no limitations, no barriers.

00:32:08.440 That's insanity.

00:32:10.040 Yeah.

00:32:10.640 I mean, no one really supports that.

00:32:12.080 Uh, so looking at it here, um, one of the most recent polls from Gallup, uh, for, so 60% approve in the first three months of the pregnancy, only

00:32:22.320 28% in the second and only 13% in the third.

00:32:27.320 That's, that number's bounced between eight and 14 for a late term abortion.

00:32:32.100 But I mean, only, only psychotic abortion supporters believe this.

00:32:39.980 Even when you talk about pro-choice people, the overwhelming majority of pro-choice people oppose this thing that is central to democratic policy.

00:32:50.980 So, and they lie about it every time.

00:32:53.400 Yeah.

00:32:53.520 They lie about it every time.

00:32:54.440 We saw Jen Psaki and Al Franken both come out the other day and say, no one supports this.

00:32:58.740 And then, of course, it's easy to point out that the dozens and dozens and dozens of Democrats on record, a major, uh, you know, uh, OBGYN group is now coming out and saying that.

00:33:09.900 I mean, this, and, and this isn't something we looked up to say, no, Jen Psaki is wrong.

00:33:16.300 This is today's news.

00:33:18.260 This is today's news.

00:33:19.640 So they told you yesterday, nobody is for it.

00:33:22.400 Here's major medical groups saying they want unlimited, no barrier abortions.

00:33:32.260 And by the way, it's when you look globally, every European country looks at this differently than we do.

00:33:39.420 I mean, basically every single one wants restrictions, more restrictions than we have.

00:33:44.940 Quite honestly, you know why?

00:33:46.500 Because we have lost our souls.

00:33:49.080 Yeah, it's hard not to see it any other way.

00:33:52.100 You have to, it's, it's, it's the same way I look at people back in the times of slavery.

00:33:56.080 And you're just like, well, how did you sit here and justify, ah, those people have different color skin.

00:34:00.460 We should, we should imprison them and make them work on our farms.

00:34:03.140 I can.

00:34:03.380 It's like, how, how did anyone look at that as possible, as an okay thing to do?

00:34:07.820 I can understand.

00:34:09.220 I don't agree with it, but I can understand first trimester, you know, 12 weeks, below 12 weeks.

00:34:16.060 I can, I can understand.

00:34:18.440 Because you're like, ah, well, it doesn't really look like a baby yet in most of that

00:34:21.600 time.

00:34:22.320 I mean, I disagree.

00:34:23.520 Yeah.

00:34:23.840 But I can understand your point of view.

00:34:26.700 Okay.

00:34:27.260 There is no medical reason to kill a baby just before birth.

00:34:35.860 None.

00:34:36.380 None.

00:34:36.720 You're going to have to birth it anyway.

00:34:38.920 It's not going to stay in there forever.

00:34:40.580 It's just going to be dead.

00:34:42.440 You just, it's just a question of whether you want this thing to be alive or not.

00:34:45.720 That's it.

00:34:46.380 When you're talking about third trimester, there's really no sane line there.

00:34:50.380 No.

00:34:50.640 It's just people who don't want to think about it, which I guarantee was the same thing back

00:34:54.580 in the day with slavery.

00:34:55.560 Oh, yeah.

00:34:55.960 They were like, I don't even think about it.

00:34:58.100 I guarantee that's how a lot of people felt.

00:35:00.240 They just didn't want to talk about it.

00:35:01.360 They didn't want to think about how horrible it was.

00:35:03.240 It was something they just kind of hoped they never had to really deal with.

00:35:06.300 Obviously not, you know, the majority of people didn't have slaves themselves.

00:35:09.280 It was just a, you know, a law that was around and like, ah, people just kind of accepted

00:35:14.300 it as part of what we did.

00:35:16.560 And that's the same thing with abortion.

00:35:18.380 When you, when people think about it, when you really get them down and ask them, 13%

00:35:23.600 of people support this.

00:35:24.920 And that's, by the way, 10, 12 weeks before the line the Democrats want, right?

00:35:31.060 Like the Democrats are saying, we want it to the last minute.

00:35:33.720 The third trimester is a three month period.

00:35:37.500 You might include, you might get someone who thinks, I guess in the seventh month, it's

00:35:40.720 okay.

00:35:41.120 I mean, I think you're crazy, but okay.

00:35:43.000 That's a different line than someone who's saying six seconds before birth, it's okay.

00:35:49.220 And that's where the Democrat party is legally.

00:35:52.200 And no matter what they tell you, and this is, this is a blood sport.

00:35:58.640 This is there, there, it is craven.

00:36:01.420 It is craven, a bloodlust.

00:36:05.020 There is you, I'm sorry, but you cannot go here and, and not see evil on the other side.

00:36:13.520 I can understand disagreements.

00:36:15.480 I can understand compassion at a certain point, you know, Hey, if she was raped or she incest

00:36:21.580 and yeah, I understand, but I'm not going to force my viewpoint on, again, I, I disagree.

00:36:31.120 It hurts me to disagree with that.

00:36:33.880 It really does.

00:36:34.580 Cause the compassion side of me kicks in, but, and only because I don't know the baby.

00:36:39.980 That's the only reason why is cause you don't, you don't see the baby.

00:36:43.680 You don't think you only see the suffering at 15 weeks.

00:36:47.620 Babies.

00:36:48.940 Now we now know they feel pain.

00:36:54.080 So you're going to cut up a baby that feels the pain.

00:36:59.380 I'm sorry.

00:37:00.360 Comprehensible.

00:37:00.900 There are incomprehensible.

00:37:01.900 As you point out, there's nuanced parts of this conversation, right?

00:37:04.520 Like, you know, pre heartbeat is an, is one.

00:37:07.280 Yes, it is.

00:37:08.220 The morning after pill is another one.

00:37:09.760 You don't even know you're, if you're pregnant or not, there's all sorts of nuanced parts of

00:37:13.700 this conversation.

00:37:14.720 This isn't, this is not one of them.

00:37:16.360 This is not one of them.

00:37:17.820 It's just, it's disgraceful.

00:37:19.200 And it's, it's honestly revolting.

00:37:20.940 And this is happening because too many of us would not say anything in the past.

00:37:29.620 This happened.

00:37:30.780 This got here because people quite honestly, like me in positions like this failed to say

00:37:38.960 anything because it was controversial.

00:37:42.560 Nobody wanted to talk about it.

00:37:44.340 It would hurt the ratings, whatever.

00:37:46.380 Not the sexiest programming.

00:37:47.720 Yeah, it's not.

00:37:48.640 And it would drive people away in droves and may still be doing that.

00:37:52.580 But it is here because of people like me that failed.

00:37:57.540 Don't make that.

00:37:58.660 Don't make that mistake.

00:38:00.520 We've got to, this is a good time.

00:38:03.460 It's, we can look at this as a bad time or a good time.

00:38:06.220 This is a good time.

00:38:07.400 Evil is becoming so clear.

00:38:09.580 That we have to stand up and say something.

00:38:12.140 And that's the only way things are going to change.

00:38:15.200 And this is not your fault, by the way.

00:38:17.380 I know.

00:38:18.100 It's all of us.

00:38:19.100 I'm taking my part.

00:38:20.660 I know.

00:38:20.860 Yeah.

00:38:21.080 And that's good.

00:39:48.900 Glenn Beck.

00:40:05.620 So, Walt Disney, they are turning that company right around, I'll tell you that.

00:40:11.180 They've learned a lesson.

00:40:12.100 According to Variety, they have just made Biden's former national press secretary a vice president

00:40:20.720 of media relations.

00:40:22.640 Now, why would an entertainment company hire a political guy from this White House?

00:40:31.320 I mean, the only reason why you would hire somebody from the White House is because you're

00:40:35.480 looking for insight or you're looking for protection or you're looking just what's coming, how do

00:40:42.060 I navigate all of this?

00:40:43.620 But this guy is going to be responsible for developing the cross-brand messaging and communication

00:40:49.520 strategies for Disney and all of their properties.

00:40:52.720 Are you kidding me?

00:40:54.760 Disney, I think within 10 years, Disney could be a thing of the past.

00:40:59.740 Could happen sooner.

00:41:00.780 Could happen a little later.

00:41:02.260 But if they stay on this path where, you know, Snow White comes out and goes, yeah, that story

00:41:07.380 was crap in the old days.

00:41:10.140 That's why I'm beer drinking and I'm a guy.

00:41:13.740 And we got rid of the prince and the seven dwarves.

00:41:17.640 They're all tall, skinny.

00:41:19.940 Nothing wrong with them.

00:41:21.520 I mean, you know, except the fact that one of them is heterosexual.

00:41:27.320 It's over.

00:41:28.020 The Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:30.980 Stu, do you ever go to the range?

00:41:32.400 Do you ever shoot a gun?

00:41:34.120 Yeah, occasionally.

00:41:35.380 Occasionally?

00:41:35.980 Occasionally.

00:41:36.320 Are you a good shot?

00:41:37.500 I would not say that.

00:41:38.700 Okay.

00:41:39.000 I mean, I don't want to say I'm terrible, but, you know, for my level of experience, I

00:41:42.280 think I'm all right, but not as good as you.

00:41:44.320 Definitely.

00:41:44.640 So, thank you for telling me that.

00:41:48.300 So, if I am ever robbing houses, I'll know I could be shot in the head, in the foot, you

00:41:53.500 could shoot yourself.

00:41:54.840 Oh, all that is very possible.

00:41:56.000 Yeah, very possible.

00:41:57.180 Look, you have to be a good shot.

00:42:00.120 If you own a gun, you owe it.

00:42:02.660 If you're a hunter, to the animal.

00:42:04.960 You owe it to yourself.

00:42:07.020 And if you're not a good shot, you don't know what you're doing, it's just not a good

00:42:11.960 thing.

00:42:12.440 Mantis X can help you practice.

00:42:15.000 I mean, you know, Stu and I have done this in the studio where, you know, just like taking

00:42:19.720 the gun and without any bullets in it and dry firing it.

00:42:25.600 And Mantis X will help you get better.

00:42:28.400 Ninety-four percent of shooters improve within 20 minutes.

00:42:31.160 The Marines are now using this.

00:42:33.260 The military is using this because you don't have to use ammo.

00:42:37.780 You can.

00:42:38.300 But it's like having an instructor right by your side.

00:42:40.960 It's going to save you a ton of money.

00:42:42.560 You're going to get better.

00:42:43.760 It's Mantis X dot com.

00:42:45.860 Mantis X dot com.

00:42:48.180 We've got no room to compromise.

00:43:13.220 We've got to stand together.

00:43:15.180 It's going to survive.

00:43:16.360 We've got no room to compromise.

00:43:18.180 Stand up, stand up, stand up, hold the line.

00:43:24.000 It's a new day I'm trying to raise.

00:43:29.900 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:43:37.800 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:43.580 Hello, America.

00:43:44.740 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:43:46.100 We're glad you're here.

00:43:47.280 Today, I want to do something because I do not want my influence to influence how you decide

00:43:57.680 to vote.

00:43:58.360 This is your decision.

00:44:00.440 But I want to bring you the full story on everyone.

00:44:05.020 Vivek, who I really like, have been a friend of the show for a long time, a lot of the audience

00:44:10.280 just loves the guy, is going through a time where people are asking questions about him and some

00:44:17.560 of them are a little confusing.

00:44:18.680 So I asked Vivek on and I always do this to every guest.

00:44:22.680 If I'm going to be tough on him, I let him know this is not going to be a walk in the park.

00:44:28.040 I'm going to ask him the tough questions.

00:44:31.080 Vivek from Vivek 2024 in 60 seconds.

00:44:35.380 Mike Lindell is a pretty stand-up guy.

00:44:39.380 You know, I didn't know this, but Alan Dershowitz, who is on my podcast this weekend, and it is a mind-blowing podcast.

00:44:45.780 Uh, he's representing Mike Lindell now.

00:44:49.220 He's, I mean, yeah.

00:44:51.260 These people are just going after any and everyone.

00:44:55.500 Anyway, Mike Lindell wants you to celebrate the, uh, I think it's 20th anniversary of MyPillow.

00:45:01.940 You helped build it.

00:45:03.040 So he wants to give all kinds of specials and get back to you and say thank you.

00:45:08.500 Right now, he's got the towel set on.

00:45:45.520 I know we only have a few minutes, so I want to get right into some of these things, uh,

00:45:49.460 and it might take more than one episode here.

00:45:52.700 Uh, first of all, hello.

00:45:54.360 And my first question.

00:45:55.660 Good to talk to you.

00:45:56.100 Yeah.

00:45:56.400 My first question is, please, will you verify that it is the Vake like cake?

00:46:03.680 That is correct.

00:46:05.660 Thank you.

00:46:06.300 It is the Vake like a Karamaswami.

00:46:08.000 Okay.

00:46:08.500 Okay.

00:46:08.640 That one is an easy one, Glenn.

00:46:09.680 Yeah, well, I know.

00:46:10.520 I know.

00:46:10.820 Well, they're going to get harder from here.

00:46:12.960 Um, Wikipedia editor alleges that you paid to have your Wikipedia page edited to remove

00:46:20.920 you receiving the Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans and your role in Ohio's

00:46:27.640 COVID-19 response team.

00:46:31.040 Is that true?

00:46:32.480 Hang on.

00:46:32.900 Is that true?

00:46:33.760 And if it is, why?

00:46:35.280 So before I ran for president, there were a lot of falsehoods on my Wikipedia page and

00:46:41.920 it was clearly missed.

00:46:43.120 It was clearly being, and it is actively over the course of this campaign been manipulated

00:46:48.380 by opposition research.

00:46:49.680 It said things like at times me being born in India, my wife and facts about her that

00:46:55.120 were incorrect up to and including her name.

00:46:57.460 And so before I ran, yes, I wanted to make sure that the public was aware of exactly what

00:47:03.140 the right facts were.

00:47:04.260 The fact of the matter is the Ohio COVID-19 response team wasn't actually ever a formally

00:47:10.140 titled body.

00:47:11.760 There was a lieutenant governor in Ohio who remains a friend of mine to this day who asked

00:47:16.600 me if he could call me from time to time to get basic advice through the process.

00:47:22.200 I said, sure, I would.

00:47:23.380 I helped him with the reopening plan.

00:47:26.100 That was a short version of the help that I provided him.

00:47:29.360 So I'm actually proud of that.

00:47:30.340 You know, when a lot of these states were going through lockdown, there was a path to

00:47:34.220 reopening.

00:47:34.780 I'm a business guy.

00:47:35.520 He called me for advice on that.

00:47:37.280 I was pro reopening.

00:47:39.220 And, you know, to this day, people can call him.

00:47:41.100 I'm sure he would say the same thing.

00:47:42.680 Did you ever phone calls about it?

00:47:44.300 Did you ever go for lockdowns, mandates?

00:47:48.820 Nope.

00:47:49.240 None of that.

00:47:49.940 Absolutely not.

00:47:50.720 Okay.

00:47:50.980 I've been dead set against it.

00:47:52.260 And I was a force for good in the state of Ohio here.

00:47:55.200 So John Husted, I'm sure, would confirm that, who was the person on the receiving end of

00:47:58.960 those phone calls that I made.

00:48:00.000 Why wouldn't you just have them?

00:48:02.460 I mean, because you were on the response team as much as there existed a response team.

00:48:07.380 You did get the Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans.

00:48:11.380 It's easily findable on the Internet.

00:48:13.260 But why would you remove those things instead of clarifying?

00:48:19.420 I think the truth is that that headline was itself generated to create this appearance

00:48:26.360 that we're somehow manipulating this.

00:48:28.160 There was about five other just outright false things.

00:48:31.460 And you know what?

00:48:32.040 I wasn't micromanaging what exactly this page is edited or not.

00:48:36.320 What you want is actually a statement of what's important coming up first in your heading.

00:48:40.740 So if somebody else has gone out of their way in the early paragraphs of your description

00:48:45.740 to the world at the age of 37, having achieved a lot of things, and then the first thing is

00:48:50.980 some random scholarship you got at the age of 24, that's manipulation.

00:48:55.660 And one of the things I've learned in this process, Glenn, is there's a lot of left-wing

00:48:59.900 media manipulation, but there's media manipulation 360 degrees driven by not just fake news media,

00:49:06.440 but a lot of fake establishment candidates, too, who are threatened by my rise.

00:49:10.860 And literally, Wikipedia, even to this day, it's like a war on my Wikipedia page.

00:49:14.940 No, I know.

00:49:15.540 Please.

00:49:16.220 And so my view is, we've got to just speak the truth.

00:49:19.520 Okay, so...

00:49:20.040 I've actually been completely transparent about this silly Soros scholarship that's a brother

00:49:25.620 of George Soros, not related to him, at the age of 24 that I want easily Googleable, a

00:49:32.080 generic scholarship that I would have had to have been a fool to turn down at the age of

00:49:35.720 24 from a guy who's long dead, who's a totally different person from George Soros when I'm

00:49:41.320 in my early 20s.

00:49:42.340 Okay.

00:49:42.760 And I don't cast a spurs on others, but there are other candidates who have gotten a $160

00:49:46.560 million loan from Soros, others who have been endorsed.

00:49:50.440 And so, you know, I think that we can play this silly game, but I think it's important that

00:49:53.640 we stick to the facts.

00:49:54.340 Okay, so it is George Soros' brother, and they are not...

00:49:58.040 I mean, they are related, they're related, but they do not share the same outlook on taking

00:50:07.300 over the world, is my understanding.

00:50:10.200 That's correct.

00:50:10.620 Now, the...

00:50:11.520 That's correct.

00:50:11.620 But there is something here that you, when in answering this, you said, I took the money

00:50:17.160 at a time when I was young, I didn't have a lot of money, but at that time, at 24, I

00:50:22.200 think you were making $2 million a year.

00:50:25.800 Well, there's a small little fact there.

00:50:28.540 One is, that was the following year that I made it.

00:50:31.320 So at the time that I applied for the scholarship, I got my first big...

00:50:34.620 The first big payday ever I got is actually the year-end bonus that I got the year that

00:50:39.800 I applied for that scholarship.

00:50:41.700 It wasn't a need-based scholarship.

00:50:43.200 So one thing I'll say, Glenn, is even if I did have a million dollars post-tax in the

00:50:47.120 bank account, I still would have been a fool to turn down $50,000 of a merit-based scholarship

00:50:52.620 that other kids who are going to Yale Law School were winning.

00:50:55.640 Whether or not you have that money, I'd still say, advise the 24-year-old version of myself

00:51:00.160 to take it.

00:51:00.960 But I did see that false headline.

00:51:02.920 How do people know this, Glenn?

00:51:04.360 It's worth double-clicking on that.

00:51:06.300 People know this because I released 20 years of tax returns in the early weeks of this campaign,

00:51:11.060 something that no presidential candidate has ever done.

00:51:13.720 And this is unprecedented transparency.

00:51:16.360 And, you know, of course, no good deed goes unpunished.

00:51:18.680 But we're actually running this campaign with unprecedented transparency because that's the

00:51:23.720 way we're going to run the government.

00:51:25.020 So I published something that, you know, from Trump on down, nobody's ever done it.

00:51:29.360 Put up 20 years of tax records, someone as wealthy and successful as I've been, that's

00:51:33.740 against the better advice of advisors.

00:51:35.600 I said, no, we're going to do that.

00:51:37.300 Someone then picks on that and says, oh, well, didn't that year you earn it?

00:51:40.640 You get paid the year-end bonus.

00:51:41.820 That was the first year I ever made real money.

00:51:43.720 That was after I had applied for that scholarship.

00:51:46.440 But I'll always contend with the facts.

00:51:48.660 And those are the facts there, Glenn.

00:51:49.960 So the next question that's being brought up is the WEF tried to name you as a young global

00:51:55.820 leader.

00:51:56.340 You were on their website.

00:51:57.540 You eventually had to sue.

00:51:59.200 I'm not going to ask this question because it's already been asked and answered on this

00:52:02.760 program.

00:52:03.140 And you can find that on this program.

00:52:06.160 We went into great detail about it.

00:52:07.800 And we sued them and won since then is the answer and held them accountable to make sure

00:52:13.260 they would never do it, not just to me, but even people like you, Glenn, or people like

00:52:17.420 Elon Musk or others who have also been opponents that they've tried to name in different capacities.

00:52:22.240 Well, here's the thing that I hard commitment from them.

00:52:24.740 Here's the thing that I take issue with.

00:52:26.660 Um, I believe it came from your camp that I was also nominated for some award or something

00:52:32.180 from, uh, Soros or the WEF.

00:52:35.400 And, uh, I can tell you that's not true because I mean, I would have taken it because I mean,

00:52:40.900 do I get to go over to the ski lodge?

00:52:43.500 What?

00:52:44.100 Face off for the Elon, Peter Keel, a bunch of these other folks have been named on there.

00:52:49.860 And I thought last time when you and I spoke on the air, you referenced them referencing

00:52:53.960 you in some way, but the whole, yeah, no, their hatred, their hatred, their hatred.

00:52:58.160 No, I mean, it's not a big deal.

00:52:59.300 I, I, I know.

00:53:00.240 Anyway, um, there's a clip going around recently of you asking Al Sharpton, uh, on MSNBC, people

00:53:07.260 are using this clip to claim that you at least used to be a Democrat.

00:53:12.040 Were you, did you switch?

00:53:14.520 What made you switch?

00:53:16.480 Yeah.

00:53:16.880 So I will tell you, I'm not, I did not come out of the birth canal spouting Republican

00:53:20.680 talking points.

00:53:21.400 That much is for sure.

00:53:22.560 So that clip from 2003, when I was 18 years old in my freshman year of college, I wasn't

00:53:28.220 a Republican.

00:53:29.060 That's for sure.

00:53:30.120 Now, MSNBC hosted all the Democratic primary candidates.

00:53:33.480 I said, you know what?

00:53:34.120 I'm going to go check it out.

00:53:35.100 I asked him a question and I said, Hey, why should I vote for you in the primary?

00:53:39.320 If you know, you're the least experienced, which is inexperienced, experienced politician,

00:53:43.360 which is a funny question and ironic on many levels, given that I'm an outsider running

00:53:46.820 now.

00:53:47.580 But the truth is I didn't vote Democrat.

00:53:49.480 I voted libertarian that year.

00:53:51.200 You want to know why?

00:53:51.700 I didn't love George Bush.

00:53:52.740 I was dead set against many of the George Bush policies.

00:53:55.560 I was against the war in Iraq at that time, as I am today.

00:53:59.580 I went on to be against the 2008 bailouts.

00:54:02.260 That's why I didn't vote for John McCain or Barack Obama.

00:54:04.900 I was disillusioned Glenn from both parties.

00:54:08.240 And so in that election in 2004, I voted for the libertarian candidate because I couldn't

00:54:11.780 stand John Kerry or George Bush.

00:54:13.580 I came to my views and I was disillusioned from politics for most of my 20s.

00:54:19.340 Obama, McCain, Obama, Romney, even I didn't find these figures inspiring, but I came to

00:54:26.200 my views through my experiences.

00:54:28.180 Glenn, when I was a biotech CEO, when I had to make or was supposedly forced and I refused

00:54:33.920 to do it to make a statement on behalf of Black Lives Matter while I'm developing medicines

00:54:38.720 that are saving people's lives and I refused to do it, and that puts me in a difficult position

00:54:43.640 in my industry as a leader.

00:54:45.760 Those are the kinds of experiences that shaped my vehemence in crusading first, not even in

00:54:52.460 politics, but against this trend of woke capitalism and stakeholder capitalism and ESG,

00:54:58.040 say separate business from politics.

00:55:00.200 That's where I began, not in partisan politics.

00:55:02.900 And even now, I'm not a party man, Glenn.

00:55:05.460 I'm using the Republican Party as a vehicle to advance a positive, nationalistic, pro-American

00:55:11.500 vision for this country.

00:55:13.380 And so, you know, if people want somebody who was born in Republican jerseys and talks in

00:55:17.980 Republican talking points, I'm not their guy and I wasn't at the age of 18 either.

00:55:22.040 I'm somebody who thinks independently.

00:55:23.900 I'm a patriot who cares about this country and speaks the truth.

00:55:26.880 And you know what?

00:55:27.420 If I'm 18 years old and I'm exploring in college, yes, if there's a forum where somebody

00:55:31.660 who disagrees with me, Al Sharpton, shows up, I'm going to go up, show up, ask questions.

00:55:36.480 And yes, I did vote libertarian that year, guilty as charged.

00:55:39.320 That's just part of who I am and people should know it.

00:55:41.780 I need to know, because I respect your time and I did this with Donald Trump and I had to

00:55:46.000 leave questions on the table, but we'll have you back.

00:55:49.800 Do I have two more minutes with you or four more minutes?

00:55:53.100 I actually reserved 20 minutes for this.

00:55:55.460 Okay.

00:55:55.800 I'm in good shape.

00:55:56.300 All right.

00:55:57.440 So let me go back to this.

00:55:59.320 In 2016, you not only were against Donald Trump, but you actually made donations to

00:56:06.120 somebody who is viriently anti-Trump, a friend.

00:56:10.220 Let me just correct you there on 2016.

00:56:12.180 I was not anti-Trump.

00:56:13.040 I just didn't vote in 2016 because I was deeply jaded and skeptical of all politicians.

00:56:20.740 As I told you heading into then, I judged based on results and he delivered for this country

00:56:25.720 and I voted with him with pride in 2020.

00:56:28.040 So you gave $2,700 to act blue.

00:56:31.920 I'll tell you what that was.

00:56:32.840 Okay.

00:56:33.100 Yeah.

00:56:33.320 I had no idea who this individual was.

00:56:36.100 She's in the biotech industry.

00:56:38.160 And you know, I'm a biotech CEO, right?

00:56:39.780 I'm invited by the biotech industry association's head of a friend of a friend saying, there's

00:56:45.080 this doctor who's running for Congress.

00:56:46.600 Would you come?

00:56:47.160 They dragged me out to a fundraiser.

00:56:48.700 I showed up state as long as, as minimal time as I could, but that was the entry ticket

00:56:52.620 to go in.

00:56:53.200 And I frankly regret doing it because it's raised so many questions afterwards.

00:56:57.920 I wasn't plotting to be a politician back then, but the fact of the matter is if you're

00:57:01.900 a CEO, you get dragged around a lot of fundraisers in New York city.

00:57:04.760 That was the one I got dragged into and the ticket price is one that I wrote to get in.

00:57:09.060 So that's the long and the short of it.

00:57:10.720 I think I've, I couldn't even tell you the name of the person who it was.

00:57:14.000 Okay.

00:57:14.940 In the debate, you said that Trump was quote, the greatest president of your lifetime.

00:57:20.760 I said the 21st century is what I said.

00:57:23.380 Okay.

00:57:23.540 All right.

00:57:23.880 21st century.

00:57:24.560 That's fine.

00:57:25.000 For a lifetime.

00:57:25.660 Reagan was also during my life.

00:57:27.480 Okay.

00:57:27.900 Greatest president in the 21st century.

00:57:30.700 If he's so great, why bother running against him?

00:57:35.860 Well, look, this is a good question.

00:57:37.840 Go ahead.

00:57:38.220 And I believe I can take the America first agenda further because I've got fresh legs because

00:57:44.880 I hope to God that my best days are still yet ahead of me.

00:57:48.380 I can see a country whose best days are still yet ahead of itself.

00:57:52.460 And look at the way we're running this campaign.

00:57:54.500 Glenn, this can't be a 50.1 election.

00:57:57.180 I am the only candidate in this race who can win in a landslide.

00:58:01.540 We've gone to the South side of Chicago.

00:58:03.180 We've gone to Kensington in the middle of the inner city of Philadelphia.

00:58:06.600 We're bringing young people, Glenn, along in droves.

00:58:10.240 I have over a hundred thousand small dollar donors in this campaign.

00:58:13.580 I mean, 40% of them, more than that, are first time ever donors to the GOP.

00:58:19.820 Many of them are young.

00:58:21.480 And so for so many reasons, this cannot be a razor thin margin.

00:58:25.380 Unlike many people, I actually do believe Donald Trump can defeat Joe Biden, but I think it'll

00:58:30.060 be razor thin and tight.

00:58:31.820 And I think it is dangerous for this country if we get to a place where CNN and MSNBC are

00:58:36.800 trotting out the winner the Monday after the election.

00:58:39.580 This can't be one of those.

00:58:40.800 This has to be a Reagan 1980 style moral mandate.

00:58:45.280 I think I'm the only person who can deliver that by bringing young people along, leaving

00:58:50.000 no state, no city left behind, no American left behind, a multi-ethnic working class coalition

00:58:56.460 is what we're building.

00:58:57.540 And I will take Trump as my most important advisor and mentor in that first year in the

00:59:02.440 White House.

00:59:02.960 I'm convinced of that.

00:59:03.960 And I think that's the relationship I'd like to have with him as we leave this country.

00:59:07.400 So you say you have, and now I'm out of time.

00:59:11.240 Can you wait 60 seconds?

00:59:13.260 I hate to do that.

00:59:14.260 Or do you have to go?

00:59:15.100 Yeah.

00:59:15.840 I'm good.

00:59:16.560 Okay.

00:59:16.860 Wait 60 seconds.

00:59:18.000 Let me do a quick commercial.

00:59:19.260 Then I, one more question.

00:59:21.480 Let me paint a happy picture.

00:59:22.820 And I, I'm not usually one known to do that, but I think you'll like this one.

00:59:27.700 Picture this.

00:59:28.260 You wake up in the morning, you don't hurt.

00:59:30.100 You go about your day.

00:59:31.040 You play with your kids, your grandkids.

00:59:32.700 You, you go play golf or you're digging around in your garden, whatever you stand on the

00:59:37.420 dance floor with a person that you love and you don't hurt.

00:59:42.860 That's the key.

00:59:43.700 You don't hurt.

00:59:44.800 You don't have to think, Oh, am I going to pay for this tomorrow?

00:59:48.160 Relief factor exists to give you back the life you love.

00:59:52.300 So you've been living with pain for your, you know, any extended period of time.

00:59:56.440 Please try something new.

00:59:58.040 Try relief factor.

00:59:59.760 Three week, quick start 1995.

01:00:01.180 It's trial pack.

01:00:02.660 It attacks inflammation in our body, which is the major source of pain, uh, in four different

01:00:08.340 directions.

01:00:08.920 Ibuprofen really does it one way.

01:00:10.560 About 70% of the people who have ordered relief factor now over a million go on to order more

01:00:17.300 month after month, relieffactor.com 800, the number four relief, 800 for relief.

01:00:22.960 It's relieffactor.com 800, the number four relief, relieffactor.com.

01:00:27.540 Feel the difference.

01:00:28.620 10 seconds station.

01:00:29.480 Vivaik, I'm going to ask that we have you back, uh, at some point, uh, because I have,

01:00:43.120 I have more questions and I want to make sure that you have a fair hearing and that the tough

01:00:47.900 questions are asked, uh, of you.

01:00:50.040 Yeah.

01:00:50.340 Here's one.

01:00:51.160 I want to be very delicate on, and this is my, my question.

01:00:55.500 Um, you know, I was in Iowa and I saw people.

01:00:59.040 Uh, you know, react to you and they reacted really well.

01:01:03.100 What you may not have seen was afterwards, I asked some of the leaders and I asked people

01:01:08.500 that watched and they said this, I love him, but he doesn't have a chance because he's not

01:01:13.700 Christian and I don't think people are ready for a Hindu, uh, uh, president.

01:01:20.840 You are going to have pushback if you don't already from Christian groups that, that may

01:01:26.740 not, or they'll sit out.

01:01:28.400 You can't lose the Christian vote.

01:01:30.180 You say you believe in the same one God, but that's not Hindu.

01:01:37.620 So Glenn, what I've said is we share the same value set in common.

01:01:42.140 My faith is there is one true God.

01:01:44.140 And yes, that is Hindu.

01:01:44.980 There's many branches of Hinduism, Catholicism to evangelical Christians in the Christian

01:01:50.200 tradition.

01:01:50.600 There are many branches of Hinduism.

01:01:52.760 The one I've been raised in, it is a widespread mainstream view is one true God.

01:01:58.800 That's my worldview.

01:02:00.020 But more importantly, this is a Judeo-Christian nation founded in Judeo-Christian principles.

01:02:05.320 It's the fact of history.

01:02:06.860 I think we need a commander in chief who shares those values in common.

01:02:10.160 And as somebody who has been educated in Christian high school has, if I may say it, Glenn, myself,

01:02:15.280 read the Bible more closely than most of my Christian friends, I can say with certitude

01:02:21.900 that we share the same value set in common of sacrifice, of duty, of a belief that God

01:02:28.720 put each of us here for a reason, that we're here for a purpose, that there's more to life

01:02:34.480 than just the aimless passage of time.

01:02:37.300 Think about the common thread from the Old Testament to the New.

01:02:40.400 God told Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac.

01:02:42.880 He didn't make him follow through with it.

01:02:44.680 In the New Testament, God sacrificed his own son.

01:02:48.040 That value of sacrifice, that is woven into the fabric of this country.

01:02:53.220 It is woven into my own upbringing and value set, the same values we raise our two sons in.

01:02:59.080 And I think, Glenn, especially because I'm a little bit different, I'm a little younger.

01:03:03.020 I'm the youngest candidate to run.

01:03:04.580 I'm of a different generation.

01:03:06.280 Yes, I'm of a different faith nominally.

01:03:09.080 I think I'm in a better position to defend religious liberty, to actually make concepts

01:03:14.380 like faith and patriotism and hard work and family cool again, actually, for the next generation

01:03:21.580 of Americans.

01:03:22.440 I take that responsibility seriously.

01:03:25.480 So no, I'm not qualified to run for pastor.

01:03:28.600 I can't.

01:03:29.360 That wouldn't make any sense.

01:03:30.300 But when I'm running for commander-in-chief, the question is, do we share the same value

01:03:35.660 set that this nation was founded on?

01:03:37.840 In my case, the answer is yes.

01:03:39.540 We live our life accordingly.

01:03:41.700 And the standard I want everyone, including every Christian in this country to hold me

01:03:45.680 to is, do I want my two sons to grow up and be like him?

01:03:50.920 Whoever that is in the White House.

01:03:52.220 I think that's a standard we should apply.

01:03:54.300 If we're being really honest, it's been a long time, at least I'll speak for myself,

01:03:58.160 where we've had a president where I could, without holding my nose, tell my kids the

01:04:01.440 same two things.

01:04:02.440 And I think a lot of Christians across the country would say the same thing.

01:04:05.720 That's the standard that I'll ask to be held to.

01:04:08.080 Vivek Ramaswamy, I'd love to have you back.

01:04:10.100 I've got some questions on China and everything else, but thank you so much for answering these

01:04:14.260 questions.

01:04:14.700 You bet.

01:04:16.320 Vivek Ramaswamy.

01:04:17.820 Vivek like cake.

01:04:19.080 Can people please get it right?

01:04:23.740 Vivek Ramaswamy.

01:04:30.220 Cheryl wrote in about her dog's experience with Rough Green.

01:04:32.860 She says, I was actually skeptical that this would have any effect on my dogs, but the difference

01:04:37.460 is unbelievable.

01:04:39.000 I ordered it when my 11-year-old dog had to have surgery and wasn't doing well.

01:04:43.540 Within a week's time, she was playing like a puppy.

01:04:46.140 I am totally amazed how much better both of my dogs' digestion has been as well.

01:04:52.940 Thank you, Rough Green.

01:04:53.860 Cheryl, thanks for writing in.

01:04:55.380 This is exactly the experience that I had with Rough Green.

01:04:58.600 I didn't know if it would make a difference.

01:05:00.400 I just wanted my dog to eat.

01:05:02.760 And this, I knew, made him eat his food.

01:05:05.840 But the difference that he had in energy and his health, I think it gave him at least a

01:05:14.840 year, maybe two years of good health, where the other dogs who have not been eating this

01:05:20.360 in my household, they slowly declined over several years.

01:05:27.180 He's just, he's older than, he's the oldest German Shepherd we've had, and he's just started

01:05:32.860 to decline.

01:05:35.260 And I owe it, I believe, to Rough Greens.

01:05:50.980 That was a fascinating conversation, I thought.

01:06:05.680 I wish we had more time to go deeper, because I had a few follow-up questions on each of those

01:06:12.300 things.

01:06:13.200 But we just had Vivek, like cake.

01:06:16.820 Okay?

01:06:17.500 Like cake.

01:06:18.120 People are saying it, Vivek, so much that I even started to question myself.

01:06:23.260 That's why I led with, please verify, Vivek like cake.

01:06:27.760 Yes, that's it.

01:06:28.560 You knew this because you've had him on long before he was running for a reason.

01:06:32.100 And I asked him, and he said, Vivek like cake.

01:06:34.980 Exactly.

01:06:35.600 And, you know, we had him on.

01:06:36.580 It's interesting to see him kind of explode onto the national scene after having a long

01:06:42.280 experience with him before this.

01:06:44.460 Like, we knew this guy, and like, he's got a look.

01:06:47.060 You might not like him.

01:06:48.340 You might not think he's old enough to be president.

01:06:50.940 You might not like some of the policy proposals he puts out there.

01:06:54.880 But look, he's, number one, he's really good at this.

01:06:58.260 I mean, we've seen candidates over the years who have tried to communicate conservative principles

01:07:03.640 and have done, they haven't done one-tenth of the job that Vivek Ramaswamy does on this

01:07:08.820 stuff.

01:07:09.040 He's really good at this stuff.

01:07:11.220 He's good at running for president.

01:07:12.340 He's going to be difficult to deal with in every one of these debates for these other

01:07:17.500 candidates.

01:07:18.380 And the other thing is, he really does have something to add to this conversation.

01:07:22.360 He does come from a different perspective.

01:07:24.220 He's a smart guy who does have a lot to add to this conversation.

01:07:28.160 Whether you think he should be president of the United States is another story.

01:07:32.040 You might like Trump better.

01:07:32.940 You might like DeSantis better.

01:07:34.240 You might think he's too young.

01:07:36.120 There's a million things you can come up with.

01:07:39.560 But I would love to get to a point where primary season wasn't the dumbest season.

01:07:45.940 Where every single time you disagree with somebody who you agree with on 95% of stuff,

01:07:52.200 you have to freak out with and call them communists or fascists or whatever.

01:07:55.720 It's like, we have a wide menu of candidates that go from very, very conservative to libertarian

01:08:03.360 leaning to very moderate.

01:08:06.400 And that's a good thing.

01:08:07.580 Look at these people and make a decision based on what they're doing and what they say they

01:08:11.380 want to do with the country.

01:08:12.980 And you don't need to be, you don't have to treat everybody who likes another candidate

01:08:17.140 like, you know, we're in the middle of the Cold War.

01:08:20.280 I have to tell you, I don't think that there was a single person on that stage.

01:08:25.300 Well, except for the guy from South Dakota, North Dakota, because I just don't know anything.

01:08:30.480 You don't know anything about it.

01:08:31.080 He has a good record as governor.

01:08:32.540 He's very popular there.

01:08:34.520 I don't know.

01:08:35.080 I'll have to look into it.

01:08:35.900 Okay.

01:08:36.140 But anyway, I'd vote for any of them.

01:08:41.080 I don't, there's many that I don't, I don't want to vote for Asa.

01:08:44.480 I really don't want to vote for Chris Christie.

01:08:46.840 But I will vote for them as opposed to anyone that is a part of what is happening right now.

01:08:54.020 They are, the other ones will just give us more time, maybe four more years.

01:08:59.880 But at that same time, unless, this is what is at stake, this particular election, I believe.

01:09:06.440 We are deciding right now whether what George Bush told me in the Oval Office 2005, six, somewhere in that area, he said, it was the day Barack Obama said, I just fly jets into Pakistan and I bomb Pakistan.

01:09:27.240 And I thought that that's not good.

01:09:30.160 That's an ally right now.

01:09:31.800 That's not good.

01:09:33.020 And I said that to the president and he said to try to reassure me, he said, Glenn, don't worry.

01:09:39.460 No matter who sits behind this desk, they'll have the same advisors, the same advice, and they'll realize they don't really have any other choice than this one.

01:09:50.820 And I walked out going, that was terrifying.

01:09:55.620 Why do we have a president then?

01:09:57.640 Didn't make you feel better?

01:09:58.640 No, it didn't make me feel better.

01:09:59.960 And this is what Donald Trump did.

01:10:03.560 He said, yeah, I've seen what you guys have advised us into.

01:10:08.800 And no, thank you.

01:10:10.360 I'm going this way.

01:10:11.800 We are deciding whether and the three that I think would actually make a difference.

01:10:19.560 And I'm not I want you to know, I trust you to make the decision.

01:10:26.620 I have my own opinions.

01:10:29.160 I, you know, I'll know who I'm going to vote for in the end and I'll vote for him just like you do.

01:10:35.240 I don't want to influence your decision.

01:10:38.100 I just want to bring you the information because I trust the American people.

01:10:43.980 So.

01:10:45.840 I look at these guys, I'd vote for any of them, but there are three or there's three of them that I would go.

01:10:52.260 Yeah.

01:10:52.780 OK.

01:10:54.440 Be happy to pull the lever.

01:10:57.160 And all of them have one thing in common.

01:11:01.580 They are challenging the system, the entire system.

01:11:05.800 Now, whether they actually get in there and do it and close the Department of Education, I don't know.

01:11:13.360 I didn't think Donald Trump would ever make Jerusalem the the capital of Israel officially.

01:11:21.060 Never thought that would happen, but he did.

01:11:23.260 And the only thing that changes our course and gets us off the course of total destruction is one that cleans house in the administration.

01:11:38.580 A president who becomes all powerful, you know, makes his administration even more powerful does not help us at all, because the next one that gets in just going to, you know, reverse all of the the edicts.

01:11:56.140 And everybody in the administrative state will fight against that president like they did with Donald Trump.

01:12:01.520 So we are deciding right now, are we going to rebalance the power and put the power of lawmaking back into the hands of Congress where it belongs?

01:12:15.940 Get rid of this all powerful state.

01:12:19.040 And I do want a powerful president, but I want a powerful president that deals with the administrative state.

01:12:27.520 That's his realm.

01:12:30.020 The president needs to say gone.

01:12:33.480 These are gone.

01:12:34.540 I'm firing these people.

01:12:36.780 Now, I don't know if we can.

01:12:38.700 I mean, that's you know, you have to fill probably four to ten thousand jobs as a president.

01:12:46.100 I don't know if you can fill all those people without having bad people get in can be very difficult, very difficult.

01:12:54.040 And look, I think, you know, Ramaswamy has his strong points.

01:12:57.160 I think he'd probably be pretty good at putting together an organization like that.

01:13:01.240 He's done it, obviously, in the private sector as well.

01:13:04.140 It's hard.

01:13:04.920 It's hard, though.

01:13:05.700 But I mean, again, I think it's hard for any of them.

01:13:07.640 Yeah.

01:13:08.020 He doesn't have the background of, you know, of thinking about government all the time and having all those relationships.

01:13:14.760 Probably a good thing, as you know, maybe a lot of people would argue with that.

01:13:17.680 Donald Trump had that going in.

01:13:19.240 Right.

01:13:20.640 But like you look at Ramaswamy and you say, OK, he's the type of candidate.

01:13:24.780 I think he's good enough at this as far as running for president.

01:13:27.800 Like I thought his debate performance was actually weaker than I thought it would be knowing him.

01:13:33.620 Because he was a little obnoxious.

01:13:35.240 He was a little a little over the top.

01:13:37.300 Maybe a few too many Red Bulls before the event.

01:13:39.700 And, you know, like he wanted to, I think he was so worried about, I need to make an impact because no one knows who I am.

01:13:44.080 Right.

01:13:44.400 That he came out essentially loud and tried to do that.

01:13:47.020 Yes.

01:13:47.460 And he didn't realize that all the other candidates apparently decided they were going to come after him.

01:13:52.860 Yeah.

01:13:53.100 So it made it very easy.

01:13:54.540 You know, I've talked to a couple of people who said, I kind of found him annoying in the debate.

01:13:58.880 But when I've seen him in interviews since and said, you know, I really like him.

01:14:03.420 He's really smart.

01:14:04.340 He's really quick.

01:14:06.040 And there's a lot to like there.

01:14:08.460 On the other hand, like we have to get to a point where we can look at these people and say, hey, like, let's say Donald Trump wins the president.

01:14:15.180 He's obviously the heavy favor to win the nomination.

01:14:17.260 Let's say he becomes president.

01:14:18.540 Like someone like Vivek would have something really important to offer to that administration.

01:14:22.840 We don't need to make them into the enemy.

01:14:25.580 That's why I don't that's why I don't like the feud between DeSantis and Donald Trump.

01:14:30.720 Yeah.

01:14:31.120 Don't stop it.

01:14:32.100 Don't do that.

01:14:32.760 It's silly.

01:14:33.300 We need each other.

01:14:34.800 Like you have to be able to criticize someone you're running against for president.

01:14:39.800 You should be able to say.

01:14:41.280 But not destroy them.

01:14:42.500 I had this problem with Donald Trump's administration.

01:14:44.340 Trump should be able to say, I have this problem with the way DeSantis has run Florida.

01:14:47.940 Like that should all be on the table.

01:14:49.360 It gets idiotic this time of year.

01:14:51.900 Yeah, everyone gets on their teams.

01:14:53.500 And like I saw some of this, Glenn, in reaction to your Trump interview, actually, because people who like maybe DeSantis or like Vivek were like, well, you didn't go hard enough on Donald Trump.

01:15:04.280 Why did Glenn, you know, your interview, I think you'd say this, was much more difficult on Vivek than it was on Trump.

01:15:14.840 Now, you've had.

01:15:15.360 I went harder on Vivek because that's what I was going for.

01:15:19.780 Right.

01:15:19.940 Donald Trump, first of all, anyone that can navigate nine minutes with Donald Trump and get four questions in, you belong in the Radio Hall of Fame.

01:15:33.140 OK, you you don't have any idea what it's like to have nine minutes and four questions.

01:15:40.520 He goes.

01:15:40.680 And you're talking to Donald Trump.

01:15:42.820 I got four questions in.

01:15:44.880 Yeah.

01:15:45.900 And I didn't go hard.

01:15:47.800 I mean, I thought I asked him some really revealing questions.

01:15:54.220 They weren't tough, but they were not softballs.

01:15:57.460 Hey, how'd you feel about the bad guys?

01:16:00.580 Wasn't that.

01:16:01.320 However, I saw a line.

01:16:04.120 A lot of people are saying you weren't tough on Donald Trump on covid.

01:16:07.920 Well, for two reasons.

01:16:08.980 One, I've already done that in an hour long sit down with him.

01:16:13.260 Already done that interview.

01:16:14.100 I've done that interview.

01:16:15.060 And I'll do that again because I think there's some follow up on it.

01:16:18.820 But when you have the president of the United States in the news for being booked, the first one to be booked and it's the next day, that's the topic of nine minutes of the things that come off of that.

01:16:34.740 I will ask him more about Fauci and covid, but I also am more interested in what is he going to do in the future now that you you see what happened to you, what happened to the country?

01:16:56.540 If there was ever another pandemic, what would you do?

01:17:01.340 Would you ever do those things again?

01:17:04.740 Where did it go wrong?

01:17:06.640 And he seems to be saying the answer to that would be no.

01:17:08.900 I mean, he's saying we will not comply with these regulations that a lot of people point out.

01:17:13.340 He was very supportive of many of them at the time.

01:17:15.960 Right.

01:17:16.740 And look, those are.

01:17:17.740 But that like that's the type of thing that a primary is for.

01:17:21.180 Right.

01:17:21.560 Like we talk about conservative principles all the time.

01:17:24.320 It's easy to say conservative principles are better than what Joe Biden is doing.

01:17:28.380 What the interesting part of this process is to be able to look at each individual's approach to these things and try to decipher which one you think is best.

01:17:38.980 And, you know, that shouldn't be blood sport.

01:17:41.380 Not just that.

01:17:43.160 If you can trust if you can trust them, if you can believe them, do they have the record necessary to, you know, to earn your support?

01:17:51.280 You know, people like to be I don't like the idea talking about loyalty when you're talking about your vote.

01:17:56.980 They need to earn your freaking vote.

01:17:59.420 Every one of these guys needs to go out there, including, you know, and ladies, Nikki Haley, has to go out there and earn your freaking vote.

01:18:05.940 It's not theirs to lose.

01:18:08.320 It's yours to give.

01:18:10.560 And so looking at this process as something where you are able to keep your mind open and listen to these people and not make it seem like it's, you know, Eagles Cowboys.

01:18:19.980 That's not how this should feel.

01:18:21.540 It should feel like you're trying to understand which one is better.

01:18:24.560 Obviously, in the Eagles Cowboys example, the Eagles are better.

01:18:28.420 And and I will tell you, we have great candidates and America.

01:18:34.940 I think conservatives know that we're seeing it just in not research, just just reading, you know, views from our our chats, you know, at Blaze TV and and reading things that people write.

01:18:50.760 But we've never seen our audience more well balanced in a primary ever.

01:18:58.700 Yeah.

01:18:58.920 Really interesting.

01:18:59.720 Really interesting.

01:19:00.700 I've never seen a candidate who has divided the audience like the vague has.

01:19:05.080 What does that mean?

01:19:06.040 I've never seen as close to a 50 50 split of people who love the guy and hate the guy.

01:19:10.700 And it's fascinating to me because you think that was that way would cruise.

01:19:14.160 And I don't think it was 50 50, you know, you know, it was our audience was overwhelmingly pro cruise during the primary.

01:19:21.120 And when that was over, when the primary was over, they became they got on the board with Trump and said, hey, we're big fans of Trump.

01:19:28.680 You know, even with Donald Trump, there was always a split on Donald Trump and a passionate split and continues to this day.

01:19:36.020 Right.

01:19:36.380 Though at this point, it's overwhelmingly positive for Donald Trump, as opposed to at the beginning, it was overwhelmingly negative.

01:19:41.720 That is switched.

01:19:42.820 The vague comes right out of the chute.

01:19:44.160 And I feel like half the people love him and half the people don't like they can get that number to 70 30.

01:19:50.920 He can win.

01:19:51.760 I mean, general population.

01:19:54.360 You're not doing anything if you're you're liked by everybody.

01:19:58.240 Yeah.

01:19:58.660 You're just not doing anything, at least not doing enough to be able to save the republic.

01:20:02.680 Like, you know, you've got to have opposition in all things.

01:20:07.880 So it'll be interesting to watch.

01:20:10.740 But I want your continued input and advice, because all I want to do is ask the questions that you want asked and answered and not just from the opposing point of view, but also to highlight the strengths of each of these individuals.

01:20:30.440 I'm trying to give a balanced look at each person and persuade your overlords that you are on their side.

01:20:37.500 Oh, yeah, of course.

01:20:38.320 Yeah, absolutely.

01:20:39.200 Sure.

01:20:39.600 I mean, George is calling me a little while.

01:20:42.160 I just don't know if it's Bush or Soros, but one of them is calling me when one of our service members dies.

01:20:48.420 By the way, I wore if you're watching the blaze, I wore this sweatshirt today just to be ironic with the fake.

01:20:57.540 I'm wearing a London School of Economics sweatshirt.

01:21:00.140 Anyway, one of our service members is injured catastrophically or dies in the line of duty.

01:21:06.640 Our veterans who have returned home to this country and end up homeless on the street.

01:21:10.940 Who is reaching out with a deserved helping hand to get them back on their feet?

01:21:15.320 I'll tell you who it is.

01:21:17.120 It's Tunnel to Towers.

01:21:18.880 This is one of the best charities, I think, out there.

01:21:22.220 More of your dollar goes directly to the people you're trying to help than, I'd say, 99% of charities.

01:21:30.560 $11 a month is what they're asking if you will help.

01:21:35.840 Do good for the people who have done good for us.

01:21:39.980 Tunnel to Towers, T2T.org.

01:21:42.840 Find out all about them, Tunnel to Towers, at T2T.org.

01:21:47.500 Glenn Beck.

01:22:04.220 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:22:05.800 I'm glad you're here.

01:22:06.360 By the way, I think the political comment of the week has got to go to Ron DeSantis, who said, if you loot, we shoot.

01:22:18.480 I mean, that is, thank you.

01:22:21.220 Thank you.

01:22:21.780 If you go into one of those abandoned houses, you never know what's around the, inside the doors.

01:22:26.700 You better be careful.

01:22:27.420 Here in Florida, you might have, they might have a gun.

01:22:28.960 Yeah.

01:22:29.080 Be careful.

01:22:29.700 You loot, we shoot.

01:22:30.520 By the way, you could tell by the fact that there's no coverage of this hurricane and what the response was.

01:22:36.760 Yeah.

01:22:36.860 It must have gone really well.

01:22:38.020 Yeah.

01:22:38.320 Because we hadn't heard word won about it.

01:22:40.100 And Joe Biden is, all of a sudden, he's taking a real interest in this one.

01:22:44.300 He's going down there to check off.

01:22:47.080 Embarrassing.

01:22:47.520 It's really bad.

01:22:48.980 Really bad.

01:22:49.740 Well, that's what campaign season is all about, I guess.

01:22:52.920 I want to tell you about my, my podcast that comes out tomorrow with Alan Dershowitz.

01:22:58.080 It is compelling.

01:23:00.420 I ask him to take on every legal argument, both sides, for all of the indictments on Trump.

01:23:06.280 And he doesn't.

01:23:07.260 I'll tell you about it coming up.

01:23:08.800 The Glenn Beck program.

01:23:09.920 This weekend, we celebrate the men and women who get up every day and work.

01:23:15.020 American Giant was founded to keep Americans working, whether to allow a clothing company, a factory to close.

01:23:24.100 A company was created so Americans could take pride in a hard day's work.

01:23:28.460 They started producing quality American clothing with American cotton and American workers.

01:23:34.040 For Independence Day, they created a t-shirt that says American made across the chest.

01:23:38.980 And then made a lot of them.

01:23:41.600 They sold out in a couple of days.

01:23:43.540 It's back starting today and limited qualities, quantities are available now.

01:23:48.660 The tag at the bottom of the hem of the t-shirt says, when you buy American made, you create jobs for the sewers, the cutters, the factory workers in towns and cities all across the U.S.

01:23:59.840 It's more than an income, jobs, pride, purpose, and the stitch that puts people together.

01:24:06.360 Buy American made t-shirt at American-Giant.com slash Glenn today.

01:24:12.360 That's American-Giant.com slash Glenn.

01:24:20.900 We got no room to compromise.

01:24:38.380 We got to stand together.

01:24:40.500 It's going to survive.

01:24:44.420 Stand up, stand and hold the line.

01:24:47.300 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:25:01.980 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:25:08.760 Hello, America.

01:25:09.920 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

01:25:11.080 Yesterday, I released a podcast for Blaze TV and audio listeners.

01:25:18.040 You can get it at Blaze TV now.

01:25:20.000 It is with Alan Dershowitz.

01:25:21.840 It comes out wherever you get your podcast on Saturday.

01:25:24.960 But I asked Alan, can you please explain all of these indictments, all of these seven cases against Donald Trump?

01:25:33.940 Give me both sides of what's happening, and then tell me what you think is going to happen.

01:25:40.180 It was unbelievable.

01:25:44.060 Unbelievable.

01:25:45.280 You don't want to miss this.

01:25:46.320 We're going to go through some of it here in 60 seconds.

01:25:49.860 Ministry of Preborn is out to save babies from the horror of abortion, and they're doing an amazing job.

01:25:55.820 60% of women who've had an abortion admit after the abortion they would have preferred to give birth if they had more support.

01:26:06.560 Man, that is why Preborn is there.

01:26:10.960 They are there for women in their darkest hour.

01:26:13.700 They are not condemning them.

01:26:15.840 They know that most of them don't want to do this, would rather not do this.

01:26:21.080 They don't want to choose death for their child, but they don't know what else to do.

01:26:28.340 Well, the first thing is, make sure that mom understands that's the baby, so they have an ultrasound that introduces her to the baby, doubling the chances that she will choose life.

01:26:37.120 And when she does, Preborn is there to help with up to two years of additional support.

01:26:42.560 And I mean, brand new baby clothing for two years, books, support, come in for counseling.

01:26:49.280 I mean, it's really an amazing ministry.

01:26:52.360 If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?

01:26:56.880 Your tax-deductible donation of $5,000 would sponsor Preborn's entire network for 24 hours, helping rescue 200 babies.

01:27:06.460 To donate, dial pound 250 on your cell and say the keyword baby.

01:27:09.640 That's pound 250, keyword baby.

01:27:12.240 Or go to preborn.com slash Beck.

01:27:15.720 $28 is what an ultrasound costs.

01:27:18.280 Just to $28 can save a baby's life.

01:27:22.800 Go to pound 250, keyword baby.

01:27:24.540 Or preborn.com slash Beck.

01:27:27.480 Sponsored by Preborn.

01:27:30.780 Real quick, I just want to give you an update.

01:27:34.180 Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, 81, had another public freezing episode on Wednesday.

01:27:44.120 We talked about this.

01:27:46.460 Kentucky, it's up to you.

01:27:49.380 You've got to stand up and just say, come home.

01:27:52.060 Come home.

01:27:53.880 His attending physician said in a statement that the senator is medically clear to maintain his schedule.

01:28:02.520 I've consulted with Leader McConnell and conferred with his neurology team.

01:28:09.080 After evaluating yesterday's incident, I have informed Leader McConnell that he's medically clear to continue his schedule as planned.

01:28:16.780 Quote, occasional lightheadedness is not uncommon in concussion recovery.

01:28:23.240 He wasn't lightheaded.

01:28:27.920 He was having a neurological event.

01:28:31.840 We are all very, very clear on this.

01:28:35.080 My gosh, what these people won't do.

01:28:38.400 That's incredible.

01:28:39.740 It's amazing that anyone would believe that.

01:28:42.560 Look, it's obviously he's had serious, serious problems.

01:28:46.900 And, you know, people are like, oh, well, he just had this concussion because he fell down.

01:28:50.620 That's part of it.

01:28:52.080 That's part of what happens when you get old.

01:28:54.200 When things go downhill, you have falls that cause more problems.

01:28:59.000 And then you try to rehab from that.

01:29:00.960 And then new problems appear.

01:29:02.240 This is why getting old is very difficult.

01:29:04.040 Right.

01:29:04.660 It's like, you know, you're you're 35 years old.

01:29:08.020 You go in and you can have pneumonia, bad pneumonia and you're fine.

01:29:13.340 You go in at 70, you have bad pneumonia.

01:29:16.180 It'll kill you.

01:29:17.620 It's a good shot.

01:29:18.780 It kills you because it starts.

01:29:21.680 Everything starts to decline.

01:29:23.240 And when you hit those things, you break a hip.

01:29:26.720 Some people don't ever really fully recover.

01:29:29.700 You get a concussion.

01:29:30.840 It's not like even if he fully recovered, he's 81.

01:29:36.720 He's 81.

01:29:38.760 I mean, he's not going to come back and be like, you know what?

01:29:41.960 I feel 30 again.

01:29:43.460 He is not.

01:29:44.680 Yeah.

01:29:44.940 And this is not an ageist thing.

01:29:47.520 This is would you give him in that condition?

01:29:52.320 Would you give him the keys to your car?

01:29:56.040 Absolutely not.

01:29:56.900 Why not?

01:29:57.560 Because he would crash it.

01:29:58.580 And hurt himself and others or others.

01:30:02.200 Okay.

01:30:02.640 And and or others.

01:30:05.140 Why would we give him the keys to our future?

01:30:12.040 You don't think that a mistake can happen.

01:30:15.140 You don't think.

01:30:15.800 I mean, the guy you're in serious negotiations.

01:30:19.980 I mean, think of the room that he's in.

01:30:23.200 He's there with with Feinstein and and and Fetterman Fetterman and the president.

01:30:30.000 And he's got to be thinking on his feet.

01:30:32.340 My gosh.

01:30:33.040 It would just be it would just be silent maybe for an hour.

01:30:35.660 It could be.

01:30:36.500 And look, this is not an anti Mitch McConnell sentiment.

01:30:39.780 I have plenty of problems with his policies and the way he does business.

01:30:43.920 But I will tell you, the people who look like they might take over for him if he leaves leadership are as bad or worse.

01:30:49.940 So I'm not necessarily this is not about about a policy change or I don't like Mitch McConnell.

01:30:55.660 It's sad.

01:30:56.820 Like, it's sad when people go through this.

01:30:58.640 It's really sad when they go through it publicly.

01:31:00.260 But don't you have something else you want out of your life?

01:31:03.800 Like, I just don't understand this constant lust to hold on to power.

01:31:08.980 Don't you want to spend time with your family?

01:31:11.200 Anything.

01:31:11.480 Is there anything more important than being into another freaking committee meeting?

01:31:16.240 Like, is there nothing else you want out of life?

01:31:18.320 I mean, I know we're self-deluded a little bit and, you know, overstate our importance.

01:31:22.300 But, you know, I know how important this job is.

01:31:26.480 Maybe too much.

01:31:27.520 You know, maybe I like.

01:31:28.320 Yeah.

01:31:29.520 But we know we have a job to do.

01:31:34.260 But honestly, if it comes down to it, my family comes first.

01:31:38.060 Yeah.

01:31:38.240 My family comes first.

01:31:39.440 I love you guys, but you lose.

01:31:40.580 Yeah, you lose.

01:31:41.520 And you would understand that.

01:31:42.960 And you would say the same to us.

01:31:44.200 Yes.

01:31:44.800 So that's the way it's supposed to go.

01:31:46.940 Right.

01:31:47.180 And like, this is a grandpa, maybe a great grandpa, who's got how many years of mobility

01:31:53.300 left?

01:31:54.400 I mean, seemingly almost none.

01:31:56.020 He's falling over and having concussions.

01:31:58.180 That's so sad.

01:31:58.980 Why wouldn't you, why would you claw and hold on to power instead of doing something that

01:32:05.780 you can actually, this is the end of your life.

01:32:08.500 I mean, I hate to tell everybody this.

01:32:09.820 We all die.

01:32:11.020 I know.

01:32:11.380 I got to tell you, you know, I've been saying here recently, you have 4,000 weeks.

01:32:16.200 Your life is 4,000 weeks for the average life.

01:32:19.140 That takes you to about 76.

01:32:20.740 Okay.

01:32:21.000 Average person.

01:32:22.240 4,000 weeks.

01:32:23.660 I'm down to under 1,000 weeks left.

01:32:27.100 Okay.

01:32:27.620 Good God.

01:32:28.080 It's terrifying.

01:32:28.900 It's terrifying.

01:32:30.080 1,000.

01:32:30.620 And I don't want to be terrified.

01:32:32.100 I just want to get, I want to start checking the boxes.

01:32:34.300 Yeah.

01:32:34.480 Do things that you enjoyed that you think are important.

01:32:36.760 Yesterday, I went and I watched my son's first college football game as a coach and it didn't

01:32:46.780 go well, but, you know, it's a turnaround team.

01:32:50.280 Yeah.

01:32:50.620 You know, turnaround year.

01:32:51.740 All new coaching staff coming in.

01:32:53.460 Yeah.

01:32:53.700 Rebuilding.

01:32:54.200 But it was the greatest thing.

01:32:57.100 It was the greatest thing to stand there and see him, you know, with his coaching stuff

01:33:03.580 and he, like, it's like crazy.

01:33:06.200 It's incredible.

01:33:07.380 I'm there and I get, Tanya gets a text message, said, you have to see this.

01:33:13.100 This is dress rehearsal for opening night for my daughter who is in Oliver.

01:33:21.500 And I listen to this, like, 30 seconds.

01:33:23.980 I listen to this and I'm like, what the, who, what?

01:33:28.220 Listen to this.

01:33:47.280 What?

01:33:48.080 How?

01:33:51.500 What is that?

01:33:58.520 Whose child is that?

01:34:00.020 It's not my child.

01:34:01.240 What?

01:34:02.140 How is that possible?

01:34:03.180 Yeah.

01:34:03.540 Our opening night is happening at a place called Artisan.

01:34:08.380 And I mean, and honestly, I really feel like I have important things left to do, at least

01:34:20.100 for me, but if my daughter said to me, dad, I just, I just need you by my side, gone.

01:34:28.060 I'm gone.

01:34:29.200 My son, my two other daughters, gone.

01:34:33.260 Gone.

01:34:34.900 I'm going to prioritize that over everything else.

01:34:38.180 Especially at my age.

01:34:39.780 I mean, I mean, I'm still relatively young.

01:34:43.140 I'm not in good shape, but I'm, you know, 59.

01:34:47.200 Yeah.

01:34:47.560 The 4,000 weeks is for average health individual.

01:34:50.200 That's not you.

01:34:51.100 I've got to like, I mean, like I've got maybe 10 minutes, 10 minutes.

01:34:54.440 So let me take this 10 minutes and share something that I think is really important.

01:34:58.920 I want you to listen to what Tucker Carlson just said on the Adam Carolla show, talking

01:35:06.360 about what he thinks is coming.

01:35:09.420 Listen to this and the conviction of this statement.

01:35:13.920 So they can't lose.

01:35:15.560 They will do anything to win.

01:35:17.400 So how do they do that?

01:35:19.000 They're not going to do COVID again.

01:35:20.320 I know everyone on the right is afraid they're going to do COVID and mask mandate.

01:35:22.960 They're not going to do that.

01:35:23.700 They can't do that.

01:35:24.460 If they've already been exposed, that won't work.

01:35:26.620 There's going to be.

01:35:27.380 No.

01:35:27.640 What are they going to do?

01:35:28.500 They're going to go to war with Russia.

01:35:29.720 It's what they're going to do.

01:35:31.080 There will be a hot war between the United States and Russia in the next year.

01:35:36.080 Really?

01:35:37.400 Yes, of course.

01:35:38.520 They want it anyway.

01:35:40.000 I don't think we'll win it, but that's a separate analysis.

01:35:43.400 But I think it's a political matter.

01:35:45.340 They need to declare war footing in order to assume war powers in order to win.

01:35:51.520 I believe that.

01:35:52.520 And I think the evidence suggests that's true.

01:35:54.040 So if you're worried about our politics getting like even more vicious than it already is and people being hurt in our politics, which is entirely possible, you should be worried about the prospect of an open war.

01:36:07.840 We're already at war with Russia.

01:36:08.900 Of course, we're funding their enemies.

01:36:11.620 So we're fighting Russia.

01:36:12.840 But I mean, an open battle with Russia where we say we're at war with Russia.

01:36:16.920 I think that could easily happen.

01:36:19.300 You know, I think we could tonk and gulf our way into it where all of a sudden missiles land in Poland.

01:36:24.180 The Russians did it.

01:36:25.000 Our NATO allies have been attacked.

01:36:26.200 We're going to war.

01:36:26.820 I could see that happening very easily.

01:36:29.120 So if you're worried about that, you need to put as much pressure as you possibly can on the Republican-held Senate to force a peace, which can be done.

01:36:38.260 The United States could force a peace in Ukraine tonight.

01:36:40.240 We're funding one side.

01:36:41.340 There is no Ukrainian army outside of NATO.

01:36:44.340 If NATO withdrew its support for Ukraine, Ukraine would crumble in a day.

01:36:47.520 So we are the only power in the world that can bring both sides to the table to force a peace, which will be unsatisfactory as all forced pieces are.

01:36:57.020 Like each side will give more than it wants.

01:36:58.540 But that's the only option.

01:37:00.540 Otherwise, I would bet my house on it.

01:37:03.160 We are going to war with Russia.

01:37:06.000 And of course, the stakes are everything.

01:37:09.080 Our life on the planet.

01:37:10.400 I mean, these are the two biggest nuclear arsenals in the world facing off against each other.

01:37:15.980 Wow.

01:37:16.660 Okay.

01:37:17.520 I really like Tucker.

01:37:18.340 I really hope he's wrong.

01:37:19.620 I hope he's wrong.

01:37:21.520 I hope he's wrong.

01:37:22.060 I'll take mask mandates all day, by the way.

01:37:23.680 I've never hoped for a friend of mine to be a shill for Putin more than right now.

01:37:29.120 You know what I mean?

01:37:30.080 It's like, I really like him, but I want him to be so wrong.

01:37:34.560 Maybe he's just hanging out with Putin.

01:37:36.320 Maybe that's it.

01:37:37.060 Yeah.

01:37:37.180 I mean, it's, you know, but it is, it is what I told you before Trump lost the election.

01:37:46.000 I said, here's what's coming and we've done all of them except for the last one, war.

01:37:54.500 He said, war will come and that's when it's lights out.

01:38:00.300 That's when it all changes.

01:38:02.640 And that's the way it always works.

01:38:04.820 I mean, that's what, that's what Neil House said to us on Monday show.

01:38:11.300 The guy of the fourth turning.

01:38:12.580 He's like, it's war.

01:38:13.940 And the way he's talking there, you know, I do believe that, that this administration wants this war.

01:38:23.980 We've, we've, we've seen it.

01:38:25.920 They keep doing the things that Russia keeps saying.

01:38:29.200 That's a red light.

01:38:30.080 They're doing the things that they said would cause world war three.

01:38:34.440 And, uh, I mean, I just, I, I pray that is not true, but man, I don't put it past people.

01:38:42.080 Yeah.

01:38:42.360 I don't put it past people.

01:38:43.480 And forget whether, let's just say they don't want this.

01:38:46.580 They don't want war.

01:38:47.460 They, they're sane in some way.

01:38:49.540 They're also incredibly incompetent.

01:38:52.500 Like they're really bad at this.

01:38:54.320 And so whether they want it or not, I'm terrified of them slipping into it in a way that they're not even intending, you know, how bad at this, you know, how they said that Russia is backed into a corner because they don't have the troops.

01:39:08.360 They don't have the missiles, et cetera, et cetera.

01:39:11.820 Yeah, they, they do.

01:39:13.840 They, they have enough, but if they're backed into a world war, they will result to even tactical nukes.

01:39:22.520 Okay.

01:39:23.280 They've said they would.

01:39:24.320 Tactical nuke is still a nuclear weapon.

01:39:26.720 Okay.

01:39:27.560 The, the other side is us.

01:39:32.220 If we're losing a war and it means we use the worst of the weapons, but it means the saving of the Republic, you don't think we would use them?

01:39:45.160 We, we don't have the shell.

01:39:47.440 We don't have just even the howitzer shells.

01:39:49.480 Now we don't have the people.

01:39:52.980 To be able to run our army on, you know, what?

01:39:57.720 At least one front.

01:40:00.960 You think that's where it would end.

01:40:03.360 It would be a two front war in a heartbeat, in a heartbeat.

01:40:06.780 I think what he's talking about here, because, you know, people who are more in favor of the Ukraine war than Tucker is, or, or you are, a lot of times we'll, we'll say, well, what are you going to do?

01:40:17.100 Just let Russia roll over Ukraine.

01:40:19.420 You know, look, that would be ugly.

01:40:21.260 And they would do it.

01:40:22.300 And there'd be a lot of dead children, right?

01:40:24.600 Like all it's, that's true.

01:40:26.980 That being said, what we're arguing for, I think here, correct me if I'm wrong.

01:40:31.560 It's a third option.

01:40:32.240 It's a third option, right?

01:40:33.260 I don't want that to happen at all.

01:40:34.660 I don't think, like, I look, I think Ukraine has a real beef on what's gone on with Crimea and what's gone on in this war.

01:40:40.440 This is not, they're, they're in the right on that, I believe.

01:40:43.420 But all that being said, our priority as the United States of America needs to be avoiding World War III.

01:40:49.960 Yeah.

01:40:50.280 Mutually assured destruction.

01:40:52.840 And like the lines between Ukraine and Russia, while important to Ukraine and important to Russia, is not the top priority of the United States of America.

01:41:02.520 No.

01:41:02.720 We need this to stop so it doesn't spiral out of control into a place where people are firing nuclear weapons at each other.

01:41:09.360 That, it needs to stop.

01:42:25.880 I mean, you know, Joe Biden can relate to anybody, you know?

01:42:41.440 You've lost your house in a fire.

01:42:43.600 He almost lost his kitchen.

01:42:46.200 Same exact thing.

01:42:47.160 You lost your son at war.

01:42:49.460 His son, for some reason, was in a flag-draped coffin coming back after he died from cancer in a hospital here in America.

01:42:59.260 But, why quibble?

01:43:01.640 And now, Florida, talking to victims about the hurricane, he can relate.

01:43:07.920 Listen.

01:43:08.240 I didn't know anything like that, but I lightly struck my house.

01:43:11.500 We had to be out of that house for about seven months.

01:43:13.700 It was repaired because so much damage was done to the house, and half the house almost collapsed.

01:43:19.160 Wow.

01:43:20.340 Lightning struck.

01:43:22.120 It almost collapsed the house out for seven months.

01:43:26.560 This guy is never at his house.

01:43:28.560 He's never at his house.

01:43:29.740 Between the kitchen fire and the lightning strike.

01:43:32.540 My gosh.

01:43:32.820 He's not even at his house when his son is chatting people in China that he is in the house.

01:43:37.520 Yeah, that's crazy.

01:43:38.140 We find out that he's not in the house.

01:43:39.320 Not in the house.

01:43:40.240 Not in the house.

01:43:40.920 Incredible how that works.

01:43:41.520 It is incredible.

01:43:41.860 I mean, remember, you kind of brushed over that whole thing where he had the kitchen fire.

01:43:47.000 He almost lost his Corvette in that incident.

01:43:49.760 His classic Corvette.

01:43:50.720 Wait a minute, just a second.

01:43:51.700 I know he didn't lose a child, but you're saying the Corvette was at stake?

01:43:56.860 Yeah.

01:43:57.560 And this is a, you know.

01:43:58.240 I mean, I don't know about you, but a 1971 Corvette?

01:44:02.860 I'd lose my children like that over a Corvette.

01:44:06.300 It's obviously more important, you know, from a collector's perspective.

01:44:09.820 And he didn't have fire suppression or, like, really good security around that vet?

01:44:17.240 Apparently not.

01:44:18.360 Wow.

01:44:18.860 Yeah, it was a close call.

01:44:19.640 What is he thinking?

01:44:20.920 It was a close call.

01:44:22.000 Yeah.

01:44:22.200 It really was.

01:44:23.000 I mean, I keep my vet in a play.

01:44:27.180 I keep it in a vault because not because of the secret documents that I have, you know, all around, just laying around next to the Corvette in boxes.

01:44:36.400 But just in case lightning strikes, you know, I want to make sure that it's safe.

01:44:42.500 So, anyway, I am releasing a podcast tomorrow.

01:44:47.900 It's already available for Blaze TV subscribers.

01:44:50.760 It is everything you need to know about all of the indictments on Donald Trump.

01:44:56.980 I can't keep them straight.

01:44:58.400 There's seven of them.

01:44:59.840 There's two just on January 6th.

01:45:01.880 Four indictments.

01:45:02.540 And then the other three are civil.

01:45:03.720 Yeah.

01:45:04.080 Trials.

01:45:04.380 Well, there's seven trials.

01:45:05.540 Yeah.

01:45:05.740 Yeah.

01:45:06.380 So, I mean, he's got quite a calendar.

01:45:09.440 He does.

01:45:10.100 He does.

01:45:10.920 And I'm going to play some of these bits from Alan Dershowitz when we come back.

01:45:17.160 But this is a must listen to.

01:45:19.080 He said, I've been given on my podcast, I've been given bananas.

01:45:24.280 And I said, what?

01:45:25.300 And he said, for Banana Republic.

01:45:27.320 He said, you get to 10 bananas and you're done as a country.

01:45:31.020 He said, we have six.

01:45:32.300 And in the next few weeks, we could have seven or eight.

01:45:36.420 We are close to losing the Republic.

01:45:39.360 And they all revolve around these cases.

01:45:43.220 And he takes us through each of the cases.

01:45:46.060 And it is fascinating to listen to Alan Dershowitz.

01:45:50.360 That is the podcast.

01:45:51.740 Wherever you get your podcast, it's available tomorrow.

01:45:55.140 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:45:56.380 And, of course, available today if you're a Blaze TV subscriber.

01:45:59.140 Ten years ago, the parallel economy that you and I are building now with millions of other Americans gained a new company in its ranks.

01:46:19.520 But unlike a lot of the big mobile companies, they're not sending your money to fund leftist causes.

01:46:25.300 When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you are getting the same great service because they're on the same tower.

01:46:40.320 Plus, they're taking some of their profits and they're supporting free speech, religious freedom, sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, our military veterans.

01:46:49.140 They're helping us at Mercury One all the time.

01:46:51.780 This is a great company.

01:47:28.060 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

01:47:31.400 Well, CNN has a new CEO.

01:47:35.620 He used to be with the BBC.

01:47:38.420 And the good news is he was the guy that was in charge of the BBC that nixed the investigation segment about the pedophile Jimmy Saville,

01:47:50.460 who was a big, big, big, big, big, big star in England.

01:47:55.960 He was like a, for a long time, he was like the number one disc jockey on BBC and became huge charity guy and was, you know, helping them build children's hospitals.

01:48:08.980 And the BBC finds out, um, he's molesting the children in the children's hospitals and they nixed the profile.

01:48:18.860 They, they, the investigative report, they said, no, we're not reporting on that.

01:48:23.180 The guy who made that decision is now running CNN.

01:48:25.860 Oh, I did not realize that.

01:48:29.780 Wow.

01:48:29.940 I mean, cause his, he goes back to, uh, the times he was at the New York times for a while.

01:48:34.420 He was at the BBC.

01:48:35.200 Yeah.

01:48:35.420 Um, you know, he's, I was talking to Steve Krakauer yesterday who covers the media, you know, wrote a book about it.

01:48:42.460 Um, and he was saying the guy's known as sort of like more of a businessman, like he's not known as a guy who's making major editorial decisions.

01:48:49.080 We'll see how, if that holds or not.

01:48:50.960 But if he's making decisions like that.

01:48:52.840 Yeah.

01:48:53.100 It feels like that's the type of thing you do once and you never get another job.

01:48:56.760 Yeah.

01:48:57.080 Let alone the leadership job.

01:48:58.500 Like, they're like, I'm sorry, you can't work at Nathan's hot dogs.

01:49:01.160 That's not, I can't, I'm sorry.

01:49:03.260 Your judgment is way too poor.

01:49:05.420 We would, we would be using our product and we'd always be thinking about you and Jimmy Seville and we just don't want anything to do with it.

01:49:13.060 Um, the, uh, the Federalist has been, uh, punished again.

01:49:20.000 Uh, they will not address, um, anything, anything.

01:49:25.240 Uh, apparently Instagram has slapped a false label on a report that, that was exposing the 14th.

01:49:35.420 There are 14 American cities that are part of C40 and that is the, you know, the, the group of mayors that have said, you know, one of our, I'm going to get this exactly right.

01:49:45.220 Uh, uh, uh, uh, one of our, uh, one of our big plans or our aggressive goals.

01:49:53.520 Yes.

01:49:54.060 Aggressive goals that we've signed on to is that you have zero meat eaten in your city.

01:50:00.080 Zero meat.

01:50:01.920 This has, this is the, in their words, a desired goal.

01:50:09.080 And, uh, they keep getting fact checked on this as that's not meaning that they want to get rid of meat.

01:50:16.460 What do you, desired, desired goal, desired goal.

01:50:22.780 I mean, it's like my desired goal is to be number one in the ratings.

01:50:27.860 Well, no, that's not what he wants.

01:50:30.320 He doesn't want to do.

01:50:31.920 What are you talking about?

01:50:33.220 He doesn't want to be number one.

01:50:33.720 No, of course not.

01:50:34.380 No.

01:50:34.700 He wants to be last.

01:50:36.500 Well, what?

01:50:38.000 Because I think their, their line was, it wasn't a formal policy proposal.

01:50:42.640 Yes.

01:50:43.040 Right.

01:50:43.240 Like it was just a goal that they wanted.

01:50:44.980 Yes.

01:50:45.380 And they didn't necessarily identify exactly how they would get there, et cetera, which is a really stupid distinction.

01:50:51.820 Yeah.

01:50:52.100 It's a distinction without a difference.

01:50:53.600 It's an ambitious target.

01:50:55.200 Yeah.

01:50:55.360 An ambitious target means your goal.

01:50:58.540 It means a desired goal.

01:50:59.980 And if you miss the target, you're at least in the area.

01:51:03.240 You're going in that direction.

01:51:04.600 Right.

01:51:05.260 Right.

01:51:05.380 Right.

01:51:05.400 I mean, it's just crazy.

01:51:07.660 I think we use this analogy at the time, but it's like, if you tell your wife, like, look,

01:51:10.640 I have an ambitious target to hook up with our babysitter.

01:51:14.340 I don't have a formal policy.

01:51:15.840 I didn't ask her out on a date.

01:51:17.500 Right.

01:51:17.920 You know, she just, look, when she comes over, you know, I, you know, it's my target.

01:51:21.900 Yes.

01:51:22.180 It's an, it's an ambitious target.

01:51:23.340 She, she might not even go along with it.

01:51:24.780 So it might not happen.

01:51:25.580 Right.

01:51:25.960 But you know, that's generally speaking what I want to do.

01:51:28.060 And I want you to know, I'm working towards that.

01:51:30.220 I mean, I'm putting in place different restrictions and everything else for you, for her to be here

01:51:34.920 when you're not.

01:51:36.720 Right.

01:51:37.140 Like when, for example, when she's not even watching the kids, I just have her come over.

01:51:40.120 But how dare you accuse me of, my gosh.

01:51:44.520 It's just like so ridiculous.

01:51:45.820 If you're the woman in this situation, you might have questions about such behavior.

01:51:51.000 Yeah.

01:51:51.680 As we should.

01:51:52.980 Marcy Parker Darwin has announced that Peanut, her chicken, has just turned 21,

01:52:03.120 which makes Peanut the chicken in Michigan the oldest chicken in the world that we know of.

01:52:09.820 We know of.

01:52:11.480 21.

01:52:12.000 Because a lot of, a lot of them don't get carded.

01:52:14.420 Uh, I know.

01:52:16.060 I know.

01:52:16.520 But yeah, he can, but Peanut can drink.

01:52:19.560 Can drink.

01:52:19.980 Can drink.

01:52:20.520 So that's good.

01:52:21.500 You got to give Peanut a beer, don't you?

01:52:23.200 I would.

01:52:23.880 On his 21st birthday.

01:52:25.160 I would.

01:52:25.620 You got to see.

01:52:26.220 You got to do it.

01:52:27.540 Oh man, PETA is going to be all over you for just even suggesting that as a, what you claim

01:52:32.520 to be a joke.

01:52:33.460 It'll give me a vegan beer.

01:52:34.900 Yeah.

01:52:36.660 It's okay.

01:52:38.620 Yeah.

01:52:39.440 So there you go.

01:52:40.780 So 21 year old chicken in Michigan, the happy birthday to Peanut.

01:52:45.080 Happy birthday.

01:52:46.560 Um, here's another story.

01:52:48.020 California woman.

01:52:49.600 Now I want you to listen to this and tell me what sticks out to you.

01:52:53.120 Okay.

01:52:53.600 California woman known for her involvement in a failed multimillion dollar horse show that

01:52:58.860 made headlines a decade ago has been charged, uh, with trying to hire somebody to kill

01:53:04.720 her husband.

01:53:05.840 Hmm.

01:53:06.580 Okay.

01:53:07.140 I have questions already.

01:53:08.560 Okay.

01:53:08.760 What are the questions?

01:53:09.780 What failed multimillion dollar horse show?

01:53:13.500 Are you speaking of?

01:53:14.320 Let me give you the headline.

01:53:15.240 The headline is woman behind the infamous.

01:53:19.300 Okay.

01:53:19.780 Which implies that we should know about.

01:53:21.380 Right.

01:53:21.680 Right.

01:53:21.980 Okay.

01:53:22.760 Woman behind the infamous acrobatic horse show.

01:53:28.100 Oh no, no.

01:53:30.220 Acro woman behind the infamous acrobatic horse show fiasco.

01:53:36.740 Oh my gosh.

01:53:37.980 Arrested.

01:53:38.540 This sounds like I want to see like a fire festival documentary on this now.

01:53:42.900 What is this?

01:53:43.700 Right.

01:53:44.460 Right.

01:53:44.740 This sounds incredible.

01:53:45.600 Right.

01:53:45.840 It does.

01:53:46.500 Doesn't it?

01:53:48.200 Acrobatic horse show fiasco.

01:53:50.300 You have to go.

01:53:50.940 That's a good band name.

01:53:52.020 You have to.

01:53:54.400 Rolls right off your tongue.

01:53:56.140 The acrobatic.

01:53:58.100 Horse show fiasco.

01:53:59.580 I would totally see that in life.

01:54:01.540 I'd see that.

01:54:01.760 I'd see that movie.

01:54:02.660 Yeah.

01:54:04.160 Okay.

01:54:04.680 So this is how it's brought up.

01:54:06.820 Like three quarters of the way through.

01:54:08.960 After that headline.

01:54:09.900 Right.

01:54:10.360 Three quarters of the way through.

01:54:11.700 Married in 2011.

01:54:13.020 After talking about her trying to kill her husband.

01:54:15.720 Right.

01:54:16.140 Married in 2011.

01:54:17.320 The Remleys made headlines a year later after they organized an elaborate multi-million dollar 45 show equestrian acrobatics show.

01:54:29.440 What what happened?

01:54:32.500 Like the horses were doing flips.

01:54:34.960 The extravaganza was canceled after just a few performances, however, and its crew and performers were left empty handed.

01:54:43.080 And then it goes back into their attempted divorce and she couldn't divorce him.

01:54:48.620 So she was going to kill.

01:54:49.440 I want to know what acrobatics were they trying to get the horses to do?

01:54:57.060 Was it a tightrope act?

01:54:59.640 Was it what was it like Cirque du Soleil?

01:55:03.240 But it was with horse.

01:55:05.040 What happened?

01:55:05.960 Did he did a horse, a Clydesdale, wrap himself in a giant ribbon and spit?

01:55:12.000 I don't know.

01:55:13.200 What's the name?

01:55:14.040 What's the lady's name again?

01:55:15.040 Wait, the performance was called.

01:55:16.820 Dying to watch this now.

01:55:17.900 Valatar.

01:55:18.460 V-A-L-I-T-A-R.

01:55:20.600 Right?

01:55:21.360 I could care less about the husband.

01:55:22.980 Right.

01:55:23.500 She goes to jail.

01:55:24.300 I want to know about the acrobatic horse show.

01:55:28.580 Fiasco.

01:55:29.280 Wow.

01:55:29.640 So there is an article from the San Diego Union Tribune.

01:55:32.800 Okay.

01:55:33.840 Valatar's epic collapse.

01:55:35.320 Okay.

01:55:35.960 All right.

01:55:36.480 So tell us.

01:55:37.500 What were they doing?

01:55:39.140 How did we miss this?

01:55:41.020 America.

01:55:41.800 We don't have our priorities right.

01:55:43.680 We've been going on and on and on.

01:55:45.280 Ah, Biden did this.

01:55:46.480 Biden did this.

01:55:47.400 An acrobatic horse show?

01:55:50.480 That's an ambitious target.

01:55:52.220 Yes.

01:55:53.100 They're not planning on doing it, but it's an ambitious target.

01:55:56.000 Ambitious target.

01:55:56.820 Valatar, set in a fantasy kingdom of sleek stallions and acrobatic equestrians,

01:56:01.520 was touted as a matchless spectacle.

01:56:03.960 Still, even before the November 16th world premiere, this is 2013, by the way, under a

01:56:09.040 massive crimson tent at the Del Mar fairgrounds, the Rancho Santa Fe producers were planning

01:56:14.180 a 10-month five-city U.S. tour.

01:56:16.900 Mark and Tatiana Remley predicted a hit.

01:56:19.360 It's like Cirque du Soleil with horses.

01:56:22.320 Okay.

01:56:22.900 I got it.

01:56:23.800 All right.

01:56:24.980 Wait.

01:56:25.500 This can't be real.

01:56:25.940 I got to see this.

01:56:28.600 This is our nation's top priority needs to be bringing this back.

01:56:32.120 I don't know what it is, but I got to see it.

01:56:33.600 I mean, that's like, you know, by the end of the decade, we'll put a man on the moon and return.

01:56:38.520 I want an acrobatic.

01:56:40.240 That's a goal for America.

01:56:42.700 I can't believe this.

01:56:43.600 Cirque du Soleil with horses.

01:56:45.120 How do they hang on to things?

01:56:46.720 They don't have hands.

01:56:47.880 This is.

01:56:51.600 I mean, it's got to be under the underarm, right?

01:56:53.660 Like, you got to kind of like.

01:56:54.600 Oh, well, you imagine they're on the blocks and then they jump down on the trampoline and

01:56:59.940 then they kind of gallop back up to the block.

01:57:01.780 This would be incredible.

01:57:03.080 And then they jump down and they gallop back up on the block.

01:57:04.900 Free this woman so she could start the show again.

01:57:06.840 I mean, maybe your husband don't let the husband get killed until we get the plans.

01:57:12.740 Oh, this is that.

01:57:13.380 This is not the framing of this article.

01:57:15.480 I have questions with it says, what type of show was it?

01:57:19.300 A disaster.

01:57:22.200 Valatar only had a five day run.

01:57:24.520 The Remley's putting it down after it's November 20th performance.

01:57:34.180 God, journalism used to be fun.

01:57:35.980 Oh, my gosh, because it didn't matter.

01:57:39.060 Look it up on it.

01:57:40.460 Wait, is there more?

01:57:41.760 Insiders now say the real spectacle unfolded offstage and will soon move center stage as

01:57:45.440 lawsuits filed against the couple of race questions about the ill-fated show.

01:57:48.940 The Remley's did not respond, but legal documents and people associated with Valatar describe

01:57:52.900 a couple with lofty ambitions, but limited abilities.

01:57:58.080 I, you know what?

01:57:59.020 I have no sympathy.

01:58:00.460 You're invested.

01:58:01.540 You lost your money in a Cirque du Soleil with horses.

01:58:07.600 I don't have sympathy.

01:58:09.020 You're like, the horses are doing acrobatic tricks.

01:58:13.160 I can't believe it actually went off.

01:58:15.700 Like, it had five performances.

01:58:18.700 You got to look it up.

01:58:19.780 See if you can find it on YouTube.

01:58:22.480 Now, listen to this.

01:58:23.200 The wife is experiencing extreme financial strain.

01:58:27.540 She's unable to maintain her realistic monthly expenses of just $12,000 a month, much less

01:58:35.860 than what she's accustomed to at $50,000 a month.

01:58:39.660 She has no income, but she has this great idea.

01:58:43.040 In addition to the monthly stipend of $12,000 a month, Ms. Remley demands access to one of

01:58:50.240 their homes, two of their trucks, an ATV, and their pet parrot.

01:59:00.440 She denies she tried to have her husband killed.

01:59:05.180 Back in just a minute with the answer, is this on YouTube?

01:59:08.240 If you're a gun owner, and these days you probably should be, you have a responsibility to be

01:59:14.120 proficient in your shooting.

01:59:15.600 And that means practice, practice, practice.

01:59:17.780 But it's really expensive.

01:59:19.980 I mean, it used to be fun to go to the shooting range and spend an afternoon.

01:59:25.140 I mean, my kids and I, we do that all day.

01:59:26.900 We don't do that now.

01:59:28.080 I mean, you can't.

01:59:29.600 I'm crying.

01:59:31.060 Every time that I shoot a bullet, I'm like, ow, that hurt.

01:59:34.300 Did it hit you?

01:59:35.040 No.

01:59:35.800 It's just so expensive.

01:59:38.240 It's insane, thanks to over-regulation and inflation.

01:59:43.600 Thank you very much, federal government.

02:00:31.940 Married in 2011, the Remleys made headlines a year later after they organized an elaborate

02:00:53.200 multi-million dollar 45 equestrian acrobatics show called Valatar.

02:01:00.560 Now, we have apparently found a commercial for this.

02:01:04.320 I haven't seen it yet, but I'll describe it if you're listening on the radio.

02:01:08.100 Go ahead and play that.

02:01:09.260 Valatar.

02:01:12.800 Okay.

02:01:13.700 Horse digging.

02:01:14.680 Horse digging.

02:01:15.140 Mystical.

02:01:15.980 Mystical.

02:01:16.820 Mystical.

02:01:18.180 Right.

02:01:19.160 Now just a picture of a horse and a woman.

02:01:21.620 Magical.

02:01:22.480 Magical.

02:01:23.400 Okay.

02:01:24.380 Now a woman just riding a horse.

02:01:26.260 Man and horse.

02:01:27.020 Man and horse.

02:01:27.080 Defy gravity.

02:01:29.220 Defy gravity.

02:01:29.880 Experience the undiscovered Valatar.

02:01:33.740 Coming in 4th and 16th to the big top at the Del Mar Fairgrounds.

02:01:36.680 That does not look good.

02:01:38.020 Try the other one, too.

02:01:39.080 You don't think so?

02:01:40.440 It looks great.

02:01:41.300 It looks to me like the, you know, what's that castle place where you get a drumstick?

02:01:47.780 Medieval Times.

02:01:48.460 Medieval Times.

02:01:48.800 Okay.

02:01:49.020 It looks like that.

02:01:51.300 Hang yourself.

02:01:52.160 Go ahead.

02:01:52.440 Okay, so now we're starting.

02:01:58.180 No, no, no.

02:01:59.440 This is not what I paid for.

02:02:01.440 First of all, it's a skateboarder who was doing one of those tricks.

02:02:05.160 This is people riding a horse and somebody doing like a, you know, it's not even Cirque

02:02:13.300 de Soleil.

02:02:13.900 It's like a, it's like a pole dance.

02:02:16.820 There's an awful lot of skateboarding in this commercial.

02:02:19.580 November 16th.

02:02:20.620 So it seems to be, the really disappointing part about it is it seems to be the humans

02:02:24.560 doing the acrobatics and not the horses.

02:02:26.040 That's not what I was promised.

02:02:27.520 I want an elaborate multi-million dollar equestrian acrobatics show.

02:02:33.040 I want the horses to do the acrobatics.

02:02:37.440 That's how, that's how you really nailed this.

02:02:39.040 No wonder it failed.

02:02:39.960 People showed up and they were like, where, why is it, why aren't the horses doing the

02:02:42.660 skateboarding?

02:02:46.240 No wonder this thing collapsed.

02:02:49.000 Gosh, I mean, they really missed the boat on that.

02:02:51.020 They really did.

02:02:51.720 You know, I've really rarely seen horses doing any sorts of acrobatics and that'd be something

02:02:56.740 I'd be interested in taking in.

02:02:57.840 Now I have seen them do a water polo and, you know, water acrobat, you know, the, what

02:03:04.300 do you call those things?

02:03:05.360 Aquatic.

02:03:06.000 Wait, you've seen horses play water polo?

02:03:08.120 Yeah.

02:03:08.280 They all drowned, but.

02:03:12.740 Did that show get canceled too?

02:03:14.440 It did.

02:03:16.540 This one's about to be after that line.

02:03:19.160 This one's about to be.

02:03:22.860 Can't you see them all their heads coming up out of the water and then they, they swim

02:03:27.120 back in like a star, you know, like they used to be beautiful to be just takes training.

02:03:32.280 Horses are smart animals.

02:03:34.020 You know what I mean?

02:03:34.720 We've become dolphins can do it.

02:03:39.380 We're too soft in this country now.

02:03:40.980 We are.

02:03:41.400 You know, we, we, we don't, we don't have the appetite anymore to see horses hang from

02:03:45.580 trampolines with their armpits.

02:03:47.020 I was.

02:03:49.500 Can you imagine a horse now?

02:03:51.320 Seriously.

02:03:52.400 Imagine a horse on the parallel bars.

02:03:54.460 Oh yeah.

02:03:55.240 Right.

02:03:55.900 Right.

02:03:56.300 Yes.

02:03:57.580 And perfect landing.

02:04:01.460 That would be incredible.

02:04:03.520 All four hooves are down on the ground.

02:04:06.540 He's standing.

02:04:07.280 Look at that is a, that's a golden medalist parallel bar Arabian.

02:04:13.680 None of that is, is in this show.

02:04:15.700 Wow.

02:04:15.860 No wonder it failed.

02:04:16.800 We could get the painted ponies to do this.

02:04:19.460 It would be unbelievable.

02:04:22.040 All right.

02:04:22.860 Have a great weekend.

02:04:24.460 God bless.

02:04:25.180 God bless.
