00:04:01.400 Great to have you with us. Uh, it's Pat and Stu for Glenn this week on the Glenn Beck program.

00:04:11.120 Uh, you know, a lot of people have been debating whether or not, uh, the overturning of Roe v. Wade,

00:04:16.040 uh, was worth it. And I mean, I know I've heard you say this, Stu. I've said it on my show,

00:04:23.380 uh, Pat Gray Unleashed, which happens right before this particular program or anytime you want on,

00:04:28.340 uh, on demand. But of course it was worth it. If it saves babies' lives, it's worth a few seats in

00:04:37.620 Congress. What? Yeah. Wait, I don't understand. Staggering. But elections are important. And they

00:04:43.420 are. They are. They are. What's more important than an election? Could it be, I don't know,

00:04:48.360 human life. Yeah. Babies' lives. Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's fascinating. I mean, first of all,

00:04:52.140 you got to start at the beginning. Was it really the cause of what happened during the election? And

00:04:56.560 maybe we should go even a little more basic than this, Pat. And I would love to get your take on this.

00:05:02.760 The, the right is generally speaking, really frustrated with the results from this election.

00:05:07.300 And I think with some good reason, I think everyone kind of expected and hoped for better

00:05:13.420 results than we got. Yeah. So I get that. But we got caught up in the furor of the last few months

00:05:19.100 because before this, nobody thought the Republicans were going to regain the Senate. Yeah. You know,

00:05:25.080 in fact, after the Dobbs was overturned, there were, there was high hopes on the left that they were

00:05:32.020 going to win the House. Right. And look, they almost did. Yeah. There's no, there's no doubt

00:05:36.660 about it. This was not a blowout by any means, but like Republicans cleared the hurdle they needed

00:05:42.360 to clear, which was get the House so you can stop the worst instincts of the Biden administration.

00:05:48.180 Right. That was the low, they had to clear that hurdle for this not to be a catastrophe.

00:05:52.960 Unfortunately, they did. They did that. Right. They got the House. Now you look, you can look at this

00:05:59.300 and say, okay, well they, you know, this wasn't the biggest, uh, wave election that we were hoping

00:06:05.300 for. I mean, when you look at wave election, it's a little bit weird to look at it as far as just

00:06:09.480 seats gained. Right. Because look, you know, yes, 2010 was a wave, right. Where you got 60 something

00:06:15.900 seats, but they were starting from a much worse position. Like they started at like a hundred, I

00:06:21.460 don't know, 179 seats or something before that election. They were, they had been devastated in 2008.

00:06:26.960 So they got that. Yes. They made major gains in 2010. They made solid gains in 2014 as well.

00:06:33.540 And this one, you know, a much smaller gain, uh, when it comes to seat total, but look,

00:06:40.480 the main thing is you got control. That's what you had to do. You had to make it. So it was not

00:06:45.980 unified government behind Joe Biden so they could get two bills passed, which means, uh, and just

00:06:51.800 getting control, uh, committee chairmanships. Yep. It means being able to stop bills. Uh,

00:06:57.600 you don't have to pass any of the Biden, uh, agenda and the investigations that are going

00:07:02.920 to come from this. Right. And you might say, well, that's not enough. And, but you have to

00:07:06.100 understand what was the upside here. The best case scenario, the best case scenario was, uh,

00:07:12.300 you know, control of the house and the Senate, but still you weren't going to be able to do

00:07:17.180 anything with that. Now the, the, except stop certain, the only thing that they judicial

00:07:22.440 appointments and that's a big one, but that's really the only thing that they had a chance

00:07:26.680 for that they, that they didn't get. Now I think, and we've talked about this on the air before as

00:07:31.740 well, there was a possibility if they did well in this election and got to 54, maybe 55 seats,

00:07:38.780 which was, you know, maybe the upside of what people were hoping for. If they were able to do

00:07:43.400 that, there was a chance in 2024 at a filibuster proof majority, which would be very, very difficult

00:07:47.900 now. That would be, you know, because they only got to maybe 50, maybe only 49 seats in the Senate.

00:07:54.680 And this last race with Herschel Walker is really important. But that being said, they cleared the

00:07:59.260 lowest hurdle. And you know, the, the, the theory here from this Politico op-ed is basically like,

00:08:06.720 look, is there some evidence that the, that abortion and the overturning of Roe versus Wade

00:08:13.640 was one of the reasons Republicans underperformed. And I think you can look at this. If you look at

00:08:18.520 the, the evidence, there's some evidence pointing to that being part of it. Like, you know, the,

00:08:24.680 the New York times did a thing about this and you'd expect the New York times to blame abortion

00:08:28.440 here, but they, they had some, they had some relatively compelling evidence showing where

00:08:34.840 certain states where abortion really wasn't on the ballot. There was no risk of abortion rights 0.70

00:08:42.560 going away. In those states, Republicans tended to perform pretty well. New York is an example of

00:08:48.720 this, right? There was no, obviously New York's not getting rid of abortion rights. You know,

00:08:53.340 they want you to be able to abort, I think teenage years. Is that the current line for New York? I'm

00:08:57.600 not sure. Yeah. I think 17, 17. Okay. And you'd say once you can vote, they can't abort you

00:09:02.120 because they want their voters. So, but up to 17, 364 days, they can abort you. And that's not going

00:09:09.140 to change in New York. So abortion really wasn't much of a topic there. And there Democrats did very

00:09:15.900 poorly. Republicans did very well. The, there are other pieces of, in Virginia, a state with,

00:09:22.720 that didn't have a gubernatorial race, nothing really on the ballot for abortion. Republicans did 1.00

00:09:26.620 pretty well. Florida. Florida, yes, they, you know, Ron DeSantis is a big part of this story. But one of

00:09:32.660 the things they did was pass a 15-week ban. So that's, that storyline's kind of already gone. They've

00:09:38.080 already had their abortion debate. They had a 15-week ban. And so that one wasn't really on the ballot.

00:09:44.000 Republicans did very well. Texas, there wasn't going to be much of a change in Texas. Republicans did

00:09:48.320 very well. In purple states, where abortion could go either way, Democrats tended to do much better

00:09:55.420 in places like Pennsylvania, Arizona, for example. And so that was part of the theory. Do I buy that

00:10:03.080 entirely? Not really. I don't, I think it's, might be part of the story. But do you think, Pat,

00:10:09.360 that it, this was the determinative factor in this election? Determinative? I, maybe not. No. Yeah.

00:10:18.520 I think it factored in. Factored in. Maybe one of, one of many things. But I don't care. Candidate

00:10:22.700 quality is another one. Yeah. You know. Definitely. That was an issue. Yep. There's a lot of things. If we

00:10:27.000 would have had a better candidate than, than Dr. Oz in Pennsylvania, for instance, I, I think they

00:10:32.980 easily defeat John Fetterman. Yeah. I mean, remember Dr. Oz was the better of the two candidates.

00:10:38.540 Right. In that race. Like, he performed, he outperformed the gubernatorial candidate by almost

00:10:42.880 10 points. Jeez. So, like, it was, that was not, again, that's a big, I think that's a bigger part

00:10:47.980 of this. But let's just say, Pat, for argument's sake, let's say for argument's sake, it was actually

00:10:54.760 all abortion. Right. Let's say the only reason Republicans would have had a wave election, they 0.95

00:11:01.840 would have had 230 seats in the House, and they would have had 53 senators, and that, and the only 0.99

00:11:07.840 reason that didn't happen was we overturned Roe versus Wade. Yeah. I'm giving that to you on a

00:11:13.660 silver platter. Do you take that trade? Do you take the trade where you overturned Roe versus

00:11:19.560 Wade, but you lose three or four seats in the Senate, and 15 seats in the House? Okay, let

00:11:27.040 me think. Yes. Okay. Wait, you didn't take much time on that. I want to make sure you get

00:11:30.320 enough time. Okay, wait. Yes. I'm not rushing you, Pat. Okay, wait. Let me, okay, yes. Yeah,

00:11:34.260 okay. So, yes. Yeah. It's absolutely an acceptable trade-off. 100%. I would trade, how many elections

00:11:42.020 would you trade to overturn Roe versus Wade? Right. I mean, in theory, all of them, right?

00:11:45.860 Yeah. Now, of course, eventually you lose enough elections, and, like, the Constitution

00:11:50.200 gets amended with abortion in it. So you can't lose forever, I suppose. But, like, in theory, 0.66

00:11:55.760 I don't care. An election? Yeah. Who cares? Honestly, who cares? You're talking about 63

00:12:03.160 million lives. Right. Right? Worldwide, it's 1.5 billion. I mean, that is staggering. Even

00:12:10.680 hearing that number is so incredibly despicable. But still, here in the United States, where

00:12:16.260 these elections might do some difference, and Roe versus Wade counts, 63 million lives

00:12:22.740 that should be here are not because of abortion. And the fact that we can decrease that number

00:12:28.300 by almost, I mean, you know, the first month they talked about potentially 10,000 abortions

00:12:34.160 avoided. And this is before a lot of states changed their laws. It took them time after

00:12:40.620 Roe versus Wade, and there was a waiting period and all these other things. Even with people

00:12:45.760 changing from state to state and wanting to go, about 10,000 lives, they believe, were saved

00:12:50.420 in that first month. Incredible. Yeah. Has there been a more impactful Republican policy

00:12:57.120 ever? Most of them are terrible and don't do anything. Right. Like, if the entire policy

00:13:03.100 from beginning to end was to save 10,000 lives, it would be the best thing the Republicans have

00:13:07.500 ever done. No question. And it's like, it's inexplicable to think you should care about some

00:13:14.060 Senate seat or some congressional seat if this is what is on the table. And, you know, Pat,

00:13:21.580 I remind, I remind the people in the media trying to sort this out. The point of being, of winning

00:13:29.940 an election is not to get Nancy Pelosi another year of $200,000 salary. It is not so some,

00:13:40.480 so Matt Gaetz can go, you know, to a nice dinner with, you know, with a lobbyist. I don't know. I'm

00:13:47.020 just picking Matt Gaetz because I wanted to pick a Republican. But you get my point. The point is,

00:13:51.900 for things like this, to win policy issues like this, to make a difference, to save human lives

00:14:01.660 like this. You trade, I can't even think of what the number would be when it comes to House seats

00:14:08.800 or Senate seats to get that done. It was a 50-year goal of the party. And we didn't even think it was

00:14:16.740 possible. That's true. Right up to, and including the day of the announcement. Actually, it was leaked.

00:14:23.740 But up until then, there was no way did I think Roe v. Wade was going to be overturned. I didn't

00:14:31.240 shoot that high for the Republican Party at any time in my lifetime. I never thought they would

00:14:35.180 do it. This was like a miracle to us. Yeah. This was a miracle. And yeah, for that miracle,

00:14:40.960 I'd trade a few Senate seats. What on earth do you try to win elections for? Yeah. Why do you do it?

00:14:46.180 Why do we care? Why do people donate? Why do people knock on doors? Why do people show up at the polls?

00:14:51.180 For the babies. To win, to save little kids. And is this the only issue? No, but it is the most

00:14:58.620 important. Is there a more important issue that you could, that you could care about than baby's

00:15:05.780 lives? I mean, it almost seems ridiculous to have to say it. I know. Like, yes, I care about my,

00:15:11.620 my tax rates. Yeah. Yes. Not as much as your babies? No. Right. Do I want them to be 37%

00:15:17.360 instead of 39.6? Sure. Of course. That would be wonderful. And yes, I care about those things.

00:15:24.020 They are important. But I mean, we talk about like, hey, you know, CRT being taught in schools,

00:15:32.640 at least the kids are alive. Yeah. Right? I mean, yes, CRT being taught in school,

00:15:38.440 really big issue. We should really care about that. Make sure we do not teach overtly racist content

00:15:45.240 in our public schools. Sure. Important. But you know what? I think we got to make sure the kids

00:15:51.500 are alive to hear it first. Yeah. That's a good safety tip to me. Yeah. 888-727-BECK. More coming up. 60 seconds.

00:16:00.340 You know, the expression, um, if it saves one life, how much more does that apply to 10,000?

00:16:15.820 10,000 lives they estimated were saved. In one month. Just in the first month. Yeah.

00:16:19.520 So that's a pretty big deal. That's a lot. And you know, we do look at these other topics and they

00:16:25.460 are very important. But like the border, for example, what do we care? Why do we care about

00:16:28.720 the border? Well, we don't want, for example, people crossing the border and committing crimes.

00:16:33.120 Like what if someone murders someone, like some criminal drug dealer crosses the border,

00:16:39.240 murders someone? Well, yes, that's incredibly important. But like, if we don't let the person

00:16:45.600 be alive, we don't even, it never becomes an issue, I suppose. We don't, that person didn't

00:16:50.820 even get a chance to create a life in which others mourned when they died. I mean, it's such

00:16:56.820 a fundamental issue and so obvious. Yeah. That it's, of course you take it. And when it comes

00:17:05.720 down to, I think like there's a real, this is something that is being created right now by

00:17:11.100 the media, Pat. What they want to do is communicate to people on the right, Republicans in power,

00:17:18.280 that if you go hard on the abortion issue and you try to say, hey, we shouldn't be killing any

00:17:23.560 babies. Sorry. If you do that, it's going to cost you politically. And they know that these

00:17:28.360 politicians are incentivized to keep themselves in power. So they're hoping they will create this

00:17:33.060 fear among Republicans that they will run from the abortion issue. And that's because that's what

00:17:39.020 they care about. They have this cult, this cult where ending baby's lives is the most important

00:17:44.060 thing you could ever talk about. And it cannot go away. That right to end baby's lives can never

00:17:48.320 go away. Got to be the most important thing ever. And like, I will be honest with you. Like, I mean,

00:17:52.040 I, you know, Florida passed a 15 week abortion ban and like, look, is that better than the situation 1.00

00:17:58.300 that we had before? Sure. A hundred percent. It's better. It's better than what we used to have.

00:18:02.400 And I'm glad they passed something, but like, did we fight 50 years to eliminate 6% of abortions?

00:18:08.740 No. Did we, was it a 50 year battle so that 94% of abortions can remain in place? Was that what we

00:18:14.100 were doing? Because if that's what we were doing, we were really kind of wasting our time. Maybe,

00:18:18.240 maybe not actually. Now that I think about it's still a lot of lives, but still that can't possibly

00:18:23.100 be the end goal of this. Yeah, I know. It's, I understand that maybe that's all you can get

00:18:27.320 done in Florida. It's at least seeming, it used to be a purple state. Doesn't seem like it is

00:18:32.560 anymore. Now it's pretty much Alabama. Yeah. But Hey, like, you know, look, I don't know

00:18:39.340 that a 15 week, the Lindsey Graham bill of like, let's just do 15 weeks. So we don't have to talk

00:18:43.740 about it. People keep asking me uncomfortable questions about babies living. So please let's

00:18:47.840 just pass. I don't like that. I don't like being asked questions about babies living. It makes me

00:18:52.680 feel uncomfortable. How dare people ask a U S Senator about babies lives? How dare they?

00:18:57.100 If we just banned 6% of them, then we don't have to talk about it anymore. Okay. Thanks,

00:19:02.220 Lindsey. By the way, can I remind people that Lindsey Graham is a Senator from South Carolina? 0.78

00:19:07.720 If Lindsey Graham was the Senator from Maine, I'd say, all right, we got a Susan call. I got it.

00:19:13.740 You know, of course, do we, should we really have a, let me give you another example, Pat,

00:19:19.580 you might think of, uh, did you know that Mitt Romney is up for reelection in 2024?

00:19:24.720 Yes. Did you know that? I do know that. Did you know we have Mike Lee as a Senator in Utah?

00:19:30.760 Were you aware of this? It shows what they could have. They could have somebody really good.

00:19:34.200 Yeah. Instead, they have someone with one of the lowest conservative review scores

00:19:38.720 in the entire Senate in Utah. Well, his name is well known. So what? How about getting somebody

00:19:48.040 who actually cares about conservative values in that seat? And that's something that like, I,

00:19:53.260 I understand when people say, well, Susan Collins, like, you know, that's all we can get in Maine.

00:19:59.140 And that may very well be true. And honestly, there have been times like, for example,

00:20:04.060 some of these bills that went through the Senate, I was happy to have Susan Collins in there instead 1.00

00:20:07.120 of a Democrat. And when it was a 50-50 Senate, you could have easily lost that if you had a Democrat

00:20:12.760 in that seat. So sometimes you got to deal with crap. You know, no offense to the Collins family,

00:20:17.700 but her, her voting record is crap. And so sometimes you got to deal with that in a state 0.99

00:20:23.460 like Maine. You don't have to deal with that in Utah. You don't have to deal with that with

00:20:26.940 in South Carolina. You don't have to deal with that, Pat, in Texas when you have John Cornyn

00:20:33.700 as one of your two senators. Yeah.

00:20:35.520 There's no reason for such things.

00:20:38.380 And yet so many states have that. South Carolina, Utah, Texas, you just mentioned, Alaska. Why?

00:20:45.120 Yeah. Why, why? Murkowski, really?

00:20:47.880 You know, we couldn't do so much better. When one out of five babies are aborted in this country,

00:20:52.100 I mean, it's a Holocaust. Let's just call it what it is. That is, you know, six, 0.96

00:20:59.200 what else has taken 63 million lives?

00:21:01.480 I, yeah, like, for example, you know, we talked to, I know you talk about them as well. Preborn,

00:21:06.960 you know, preborn.com slash stew. You can go there and donate if you, if you wish. This is not a paid

00:21:10.900 commercial. But like, they're doing incredible work on this front. And they point this out

00:21:15.300 when they talk about this issue, that one out of five babies never gets the chance to see the

00:21:20.920 outside of a womb. How on earth can that be a thing in a civilized country? How can that possibly 1.00

00:21:28.520 be true? And yet it is. That is not okay. And you know what? You got to trade. I'm so,

00:21:35.580 I'm really sorry. We lost district 18. If that's what happened, but I'll take that trade any day.

00:21:58.520 And welcome. 888-930-727-BECK. Is it 888-727-BECK? It's Pat and Stu for Glenn and joined by

00:22:11.460 Jeffy to chew the fat a little bit. Hey, Jeffy. How you doing? I just wanted to stop in. I want

00:22:17.120 to stop in because in light of uncertainty around Twitter and out of an abundance of caution, I want

00:22:23.660 to come on and say that I'm pausing my Twitter account at JeffyJFR. Oh, wow. Right now. Wow.

00:22:29.620 Really? Wow. Now we should be clear. We didn't ask you. Yeah. Well, they've reinstated Trump and the

00:22:35.140 Babylon Bee. Yeah. Oh my God. Kathy Griffin, Jordan Peterson, Project Veritas. I... Not only that.

00:22:41.960 Security concerns, Stu. Security concerns. You have security concerns. I do have security concerns. And what

00:22:46.540 about them asking Twitter employees to work? Right. I mean... Not only work, they asked them

00:22:52.400 to work extremely hardcore. Yeah. I... You can't abide it. I'm pausing. You can't abide it.

00:22:58.620 There are lines in our society. You know, you can ask someone to work and the proper way to

00:23:05.860 ask them is to ask them to work occasionally. Thank you. Yeah. Moderately and not always all the

00:23:15.280 time. You know what I mean? I think it's too much to ask for them to work every day. While

00:23:18.700 they're at work. Yeah. While they're... It's too much to ask them to work that whole time.

00:23:22.920 Yeah. Ask them... Thank you. You can ask them to come in. Uh-huh. You can ask them to come

00:23:26.860 in? Once a month. Okay. Once a month. All right. For a meeting. Okay. The rest of the time,

00:23:31.500 they should be at home. Why can't we do the meeting on, you know, Skype or Zoom? I'm not saying you

00:23:37.060 should do this. I mean, just for the savings as far as the climate goes, you should not ask them

00:23:43.080 to come in. Right. At all. I'm saying legally, you should be... You are able to ask them to

00:23:47.740 come in once a month. Now, there should be still food available for them if they decide

00:23:51.200 to come in or not. Of course. Of course. The chef never gets a day off. Of course. You

00:23:54.300 know? That's true. The chef never gets a day off. No. Nor should he or she. None of the

00:24:00.300 people complaining about their work conditions ever care if the chef gets a day off. No,

00:24:03.860 they do not. They don't care about that at all. In fact, they'd rather the chef not have

00:24:07.540 a day off. No. So... You should be there. If they want to come in at midnight and work

00:24:11.020 the overnight, there better be prime rib being carved right front of them. Yes. There

00:24:15.100 better be there with my coffee. Thank you. Yes. Exactly. Okay. Okay. So now, we should

00:24:19.460 point out, for people who don't know, Jeff Fisher, host of Chew in the Fat, is a man known

00:24:25.440 throughout all of society as a man who takes deeply difficult, principled stands on an everyday

00:24:34.240 basis. Yes. And the fact that he's willing to... You're pausing... I'm pausing my Twitter

00:24:38.760 account. He's pausing his Twitter account. Wow. What a sacrifice. I know. What a sacrifice.

00:24:45.840 Okay. That's good. I'm going to come back. I'm going to start tweeting again. Wait, you're...

00:24:49.440 Yeah. At JeffyJFR is my Twitter account. Oh, you're done now? JeffyJFR. Is active

00:24:53.560 again? That's a big enough stand. Okay. Yeah, I'm good for it. No problem. That was a good

00:24:56.920 enough stand. Well, it's kind of like CBS, their stand. Thank you. Yeah. CBS took a stand

00:25:00.680 on Friday night that they were going to do the exact same thing that I just did. Oh, wow.

00:25:04.640 And they lasted 40 hours. Copycat. I mean, that is pathetic. They lasted 40 hours. What?

00:25:10.200 This is so weird. It is. Like, first of all, again, this guy should be a liberal icon. We

00:25:16.400 lose sight of this because he says, like, you know, things about free speech that I guess

00:25:22.380 is now exclusively a right-wing issue. It's free speech. Yeah. Which, by the way, thank you

00:25:27.580 for that left. Like, thank you for giving that one to us. We'll take it. We'll take it.

00:25:31.500 We're excited about that. But, like, because he says things about free speech, he's now

00:25:35.360 some conservative, I guess. The guy who created the largest electric car company in the world.

00:25:41.400 And created a space rocket company so we could leave the Earth and live on Mars.

00:25:47.780 In case global warming gets really bad. Yeah. Right? Yeah. That's a big part of the reason

00:25:51.940 why he's doing it. Yeah. So that guy, that guy who's been berating us about climate all of

00:25:57.700 this time is a right-wing hero because he wants people to be able to tweet their jokes.

00:26:02.540 Right. Like, well, what? But not Alex Jones, my friend. Not Alex Jones. That's true. He's a hard

00:26:07.420 no on Alex. I mean, look, I don't. Which is ridiculous. Come on. Elon is, I, I generally

00:26:13.340 speaking like the guy because I like the fact that he's sort of the, a billionaire in the way

00:26:18.060 that I would want to be a billionaire if I were a billionaire, which is just doing all the

00:26:21.500 crazy things you want with no care of the consequences. You know, like, so what? Like,

00:26:26.160 I'm going to make, you know, I'm selling flamethrowers now. I'm flamethrowers. Okay.

00:26:30.940 That's not what you're, okay. Like, I like that. He's got any perfume. Did you purchase

00:26:34.600 any of his perfume? I did not. I did not. He comes up with a joke and the next day it's

00:26:38.100 like a feature in his car, right? Like, it's like, like, there's some parts of that that

00:26:42.560 I think are just funny and like, it's like how you'd want to do it. I think I'll buy Twitter

00:26:46.260 now. Yeah. It's going to be 44 billion. Yeah. That's all right. Like, look, no one hates the

00:26:52.140 Dallas Cowboys more than the person speaking. I literally despise everything about this

00:26:57.860 team. However, I will say that one of the criticisms is like, oh, Jerry Jones is just

00:27:03.360 so involved. He's, he's involved with his team. He's always making these moves and he's

00:27:06.940 got to not be involved. Screw you. I paid how many billions of dollars to own this thing?

00:27:11.240 I'm going to do whatever I want. If I want to sign a Megan Fox to be a wide receiver because 0.95

00:27:16.740 I think she's hot, I'm going to do it. 0.99

00:27:18.360 Actually, I'm not opposed to that.

00:27:19.520 See? I'm not opposed to that. You should do that. Right. You should do that.

00:27:24.020 Well, what do you mean I don't want to be, and that's the same thing with him. Like,

00:27:26.240 so I like that about him. Yeah. But like he, his, this whole thing that he's, he's the icon

00:27:31.940 of free speech. I mean, I, like, I don't know. I don't know if that's true, right? Like he,

00:27:37.740 because he really, his stance was basically like, well, the, the, the Sandy Hook stuff was really

00:27:42.180 bad. So therefore I'm not going to let him on.

00:27:43.780 For the kids. Right. He's, he's saying that that's why he won't, he's been a hard no on Alex,

00:27:47.420 no matter what. Right. And you know, look, it was really bad. I, you know, I tend to agree

00:27:52.040 with that analysis though. I mean, he has apologized for it. He's been sued for billions

00:27:56.440 of dollars. I don't know what else he's supposed to do.

00:27:58.720 That's the argument to the people that are arguing to Elon to let him back on. It's like,

00:28:02.780 dude, where's, if I thought you were free speech, what are we doing? He's apologized. He said,

00:28:07.380 he's sorry. You've got other liars. Um, I don't know, Joe Biden. On the, uh, on Twitter,

00:28:13.100 you've let back on what's going on. Yeah. They all, people from across the spectrum don't

00:28:18.080 necessarily understand his line, which is, again, it is a difficult job, right? To run one of these

00:28:23.720 tech companies. If you're going to have this rule where you say, oh, well, I'm going to moderate

00:28:26.680 certain content, you're never going to get that line. Right. It's never going to happen.

00:28:30.360 Correct. I mean, it seems to me there's a pretty bright line. If you're running for president of the

00:28:33.920 United States, you should be able to get an account. Like, honestly, like if you're just

00:28:38.100 some guy who wants to just get, get, be run for president just because you want to tweet

00:28:42.380 terrible racist things, pretty much you should just be able to be out loud on Twitter. A public

00:28:47.220 official should be on there. We should know what they're thinking. Absolutely. I don't know why

00:28:50.840 the Democrats don't want Trump on. I mean, it's like the best thing that could happen to Democrats

00:28:55.740 is having Donald Trump on Twitter. Absolutely. I think that's a, that's a hidden. They really want

00:29:00.180 him on. You'd think, I think it is. I think, you know, uh, publicly, oh, we hate him and we don't

00:29:06.480 want him on Twitter. But secretly they want him. Absolutely. Yeah. I think so too. Yeah. I mean

00:29:10.540 that their life revolved around his tweets. Are you kidding me? The whole thing about Alex Jones is

00:29:15.240 some of us don't like what he says. So what would that's free speech, right? You have to be able to

00:29:21.720 say things other people don't like. Otherwise there's no effort there. There's no, there's no issue

00:29:27.480 with free speech. If everybody says beautiful, wonderful, fabulous things that everybody loves,

00:29:32.520 there's no reason to get excited about free speech because nobody will ever deny you that.

00:29:38.440 And a lot of people claim that Alex had a lot of theories, right?

00:29:42.500 Well, not that one, but yes, some, a lot of people do, do claim that. Some people do claim that. But

00:29:48.020 like, for example, think about this from our perspective for a second. If your political opponent

00:29:52.860 is doing things on social media that embarrass them or anger other people, other voters,

00:29:59.360 moderate voters, you would encourage that behavior. Like if you had a switch right now

00:30:04.760 that said AOC could stop tweeting, would you pull it? I would be no. I'd ask her to tweet 0.70

00:30:09.000 twice as much. The more AOC can tweet, the better it is for conservatives. More Instagram lives.

00:30:13.900 Yes. Keep talking about how you don't understand what a garbage disposal is. Absolutely. Keep going

00:30:18.760 and blabbing as much as possible. If AOC is the face of the Democratic Party, it's nothing but good

00:30:26.360 for conservatives. And like, look, I know a lot of people love Donald Trump. There's tons of them.

00:30:31.420 We also understand that a lot of people hate him and a lot of moderates won't even consider voting

00:30:36.020 for Republicans if he's the guy. That's just true. And so if you're a Republican, you, you know,

00:30:44.600 I mean, a lot of Republicans say, please stop the tweeting, please. You're great. You've got great

00:30:48.740 policies. You're doing great things. You look at what you're doing on the border. Keep doing that.

00:30:52.200 Stop the tweeting. Stop just doing this. It doesn't help. Like they, they just gave that

00:30:57.780 to conservatives. They said, okay, now I can't tweet anymore. Yeah. Now look, it's sort of a silly

00:31:03.220 debate because he just posted stuff on truth social and then all the reporters screenshot it and posted

00:31:08.420 on Twitter anyway. Well, not CBS while they were taking their stand. CBS did not do that.

00:31:12.920 And that was a solid 40 hours. And that me when I took my stand. Wow. I mean, I didn't, I didn't

00:31:18.540 report what Trump was saying. You were, that was brave. Well, are you thinking about writing a book

00:31:23.260 about the period where you paused your Twitter account? That's a good idea, actually. It is.

00:31:28.820 That is. You too can take a stand. That's what reporters do is they take these brave stances and

00:31:33.460 then they write books about those brave stances. That's a good idea. Yeah. Like that's what they did

00:31:37.340 with Sam Bankman Freed. Like they all took these brave, like this man, a leader among men.

00:31:42.920 Yes. A man who is here to save our world, our planet. Oh, what? He screwed everybody

00:31:49.620 out of $50 billion? Oh. Oh. Oh. We have a podcast about the rise and the fall of Sam Bankman

00:31:55.020 Freed. Hosted by the same reporter who built him up eight months ago. Now that reporter is

00:32:02.180 going to make millions of dollars telling you the story they should have told you originally.

00:32:05.940 Oh, that's just agonizing. How do they even pull this crap off? How much did you lose

00:32:11.800 on FTX? How much? Nothing. I had nothing in FTX, thankfully. Nothing. Nothing. I had

00:32:17.040 not one dime in FTX. I did not even have an account. I lost $8 billion. Did you?

00:32:20.940 $8 billion? $8 billion. Wow. Oh, $8 million. Not billion. Oh, $8 billion.

00:32:25.640 I made billion. You had $8 billion in FTX. Oh, cut me short. Yeah. And you're still

00:32:29.520 here doing this? Wow. Really? It's interesting. You did not live the lifestyle of a billionaire.

00:32:33.740 No. You know? He didn't. I tried to hide it. Yeah. Good for you. You know. You're still

00:32:37.740 one of those guys. You know what? You're like, what's his face? You know, from Omaha. The

00:32:41.920 Omaha Oracle. Oh, yeah. Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett. Warren Fat Piece of Crab Buffett.

00:32:47.400 He drives the same vehicle he drove in 1947, and he lives in the same mud hut that he built

00:32:57.080 in 1948. He does live in the same mud hut. It's only been remodeled a hundred times.

00:33:04.160 Slightly. Slightly. Now it's an 85,000 square foot mansion, but it is. But it's the same mud hut 0.99

00:33:10.600 that he built in 1948. Okay. That's exactly what they do for Warren. That's unbelievable.

00:33:21.880 It is. All right. So I do have some good news, though. Okay. For you, Pat, and maybe for you,

00:33:26.640 Stu, it could bring you back to what you consider is the dark side now. Researchers at the University

00:33:32.840 of Washington's Institute for Health, and I love them, they've released a new study saying

00:33:37.700 health effects associated with the consumption of unprocessed red meat. Oh, yeah. It's not

00:33:44.940 as bad as everybody said it was. Yeah. In fact, it may have little or no ill health benefits.

00:33:50.480 So we're back to eating meat. No bad benefits. First of all, Jeffy, you don't even stop eating

00:33:55.580 meat for the broadcast. You literally eat like steak fingers in the middle of your podcast.

00:34:02.940 Had you paused red meat? There's little or no health risks. Yeah. Okay. So I'm just saying

00:34:07.140 I haven't had any red meat today. I have not either. That's brave. By the way, this was the

00:34:14.380 state of the science beforehand. If you go back, remember we interviewed the guy, Aaron Carroll,

00:34:19.820 I think is his name. He wrote a book called The Bad Food Bible, which is a great book if you like

00:34:26.100 reading about this sort of stuff. But it goes through all of the dumb health advice we get on food,

00:34:31.060 about these foods you're not supposed to eat, and goes through the actual evidence on them. And

00:34:35.420 there's a whole chapter on meat where it goes through all of the evidence and it shows

00:34:39.900 little to maybe slightly positive effects for eating some red meat. Like if you overdo it,

00:34:46.560 yes, it can be a problem. Well, that's everything though. Yeah, that is kind of. And that's kind

00:34:49.840 of the whole, you kind of read that in the entire book. Everything in moderation. That should be the title

00:34:53.360 of my book life story. It's everything in moderation. Because it's the opposite of what you've done in your life.

00:35:00.040 Is that why? That's how I live my life. I would, I would, like, Pat.

00:35:04.520 Everything in moderation. That's how I've lived my life.

00:35:08.520 I would 100% read a biography.

00:35:12.720 From Jeffy? Oh my gosh, it would be incredible.

00:35:16.080 Seriously, Jeffy. Everything in moderation. That would be funny.

00:35:19.800 You should do an autobiography of your life and tell real stories from your life.

00:35:24.700 I love it. And it should be entitled

00:35:27.300 Everything in Moderation.

00:35:30.000 More coming up. I would read that in a second.

00:35:31.920 Glenn Beck Program.

00:35:33.800 Miss a day, miss a lot.

00:35:35.680 Visit BlazeTV.com today

00:36:11.940 we're going absolutely hardcore,

00:36:13.800 Twitter style,

00:36:15.360 when it comes to eating food this week.

00:36:17.640 Is there any, like,

00:36:19.080 is there a special treat

00:36:20.920 that one would recommend

00:36:22.380 if you were going to, like,

00:36:23.520 let's say go to someone's place

00:36:25.060 that's making Thanksgiving dinner,

00:36:26.620 you wanted to bring along something

00:36:27.880 that they would enjoy

00:36:28.760 as part of the meal,

00:36:29.780 maybe a dessert of sort.

00:36:31.220 Is there any...

00:36:32.020 Is there any recommendation

00:36:33.860 I might have?

00:36:34.540 Any recommendation you might have?

00:36:35.200 As far as a dessert item.

00:36:36.520 Yeah, like that you could bring to, like,

00:36:38.040 a big Thanksgiving gathering

00:36:39.100 that everyone would be, like,

00:36:39.800 blown away with.

00:36:40.820 Let me see.

00:36:41.600 You know, is there anything like that?

00:36:42.500 Oh, you know what?

00:36:43.460 Keksi cookies are a really good way to go.

00:36:47.060 Really?

00:36:47.500 K-E-K-S-I.

00:36:49.100 Keksi.com.

00:36:50.960 And you could get, like,

00:36:52.600 the sweet potato pie cookies.

00:36:54.720 So delicious.

00:36:55.900 Made with real sweet potatoes.

00:36:58.260 Marshmallows, chocolate in there.

00:36:59.820 Oh, man.

00:37:00.820 Fantastic.

00:37:01.000 And then now we got the ginger cookies.

00:37:02.880 These are traditional in my family

00:37:05.020 for generations.

00:37:06.960 I think dating back to the late 30s.

00:37:08.800 Really?

00:37:09.140 My wife has made these for Christmas.

00:37:11.140 But now they're for everybody.

00:37:12.700 It's so good.

00:37:14.040 Anyway, plus we got a big sale coming up.

00:37:16.340 We'll tell you about it.

00:37:17.340 That happens on Friday,

00:37:18.640 Black Friday sale.

00:37:19.720 Oh, cool.

00:37:20.020 But if you want to get them right now,

00:37:21.840 Keksi.com.

00:37:22.700 Very cool.

00:37:23.260 Thanks for asking.

00:37:24.100 That would be a recommendation

00:37:25.940 that I might have.

00:37:26.960 That you might have.

00:37:27.540 Because I don't like pumpkin pie

00:37:28.520 that much anyway.

00:37:29.240 You know, the pie thing is, like,

00:37:30.860 I'll always eat a slice of pumpkin pie

00:37:33.000 and a slice of, we have apple crumbs,

00:37:34.460 the other big one we always have

00:37:35.600 at Thanksgiving.

00:37:36.200 Oh, okay.

00:37:36.500 And I'll always have some of them

00:37:37.760 no matter what.

00:37:38.700 Whether I feel like it or not.

00:37:39.940 I have to do it.

00:37:41.040 Yeah.

00:37:41.200 I feel like I owe it to the pie.

00:37:44.000 I don't know what, I mean,

00:37:45.040 like, God made pumpkins for a reason.

00:37:47.260 I can't, I mean,

00:37:48.220 carving weird faces in them wasn't it.

00:37:50.460 It's almost like you're poking your fingers

00:37:52.560 in the eye of the pilgrims

00:37:53.800 if you don't.

00:37:54.500 Right.

00:37:54.900 Yes.

00:37:55.080 Right?

00:37:55.520 It's like that.

00:37:56.100 That's how I feel.

00:37:56.880 Yeah.

00:37:59.240 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:06.220 Here it is.

00:38:06.840 The show with Pat and Stu.

00:38:09.200 And you.

00:38:10.940 Great to have you with us.

00:38:12.600 Thanks for being here.

00:38:13.820 We still have all kinds of things

00:38:16.100 to talk about.

00:38:16.940 I can't think of any of them right now

00:38:18.780 off the top of my head,

00:38:19.820 but I know there's a bunch.

00:38:21.880 Actually, our governor

00:38:23.260 of the great state of Texas,

00:38:25.760 Greg Abbott has declared Joe Biden

00:38:28.620 in violation of the U.S. Constitution

00:38:30.640 over the southern border,

00:38:32.460 which is good

00:38:33.620 because he's planning to take action

00:38:36.380 at the border

00:38:36.940 that the federal government

00:38:38.460 just won't do.

00:38:39.900 He's actually talking about

00:38:41.340 building the wall,

00:38:42.400 but by doing that,

00:38:44.740 you know,

00:38:45.040 with state funds

00:38:45.860 rather than federal government funds

00:38:48.160 because the federal government

00:38:49.120 is not doing their job.

00:38:50.140 And so he has declared it

00:38:53.000 an invasion,

00:38:54.780 which allows then states

00:38:56.300 to take over

00:38:57.040 and handle the border

00:38:58.800 themselves

00:38:59.700 because the federal government

00:39:01.120 isn't doing it.

00:39:02.620 That'll be interesting.

00:39:03.920 I know that this has not been

00:39:06.000 treated well in the courts,

00:39:08.600 these efforts,

00:39:09.240 in the past.

00:39:10.380 I hope this one is treated

00:39:11.540 a little bit better.

00:39:12.460 Yeah.

00:39:12.740 Hopefully it'll come before

00:39:13.780 a judge that Trump appointed

00:39:15.500 and maybe there'll be

00:39:16.600 some common sense involved.

00:39:18.060 We'll see.

00:39:18.580 We got that coming up

00:39:20.180 and much more

00:39:21.460 on the radio show,

00:39:22.760 which begins in just seconds.

00:39:24.480 We'll see you next time.

00:39:48.580 What you are about to hear

00:40:14.700 is the fusion of entertainment

00:40:16.380 and enlightenment.

00:40:18.560 This is the Glenn Back Program.

00:40:24.060 So what's going on

00:40:25.020 at the southern border?

00:40:26.660 We'll get into that.

00:40:27.700 A lot is going on

00:40:29.120 at the southern border.

00:40:30.420 That and much more

00:40:31.840 coming up in one minute.

00:40:38.360 If you're pretty much

00:40:39.500 like everybody else out there,

00:40:40.740 you'd probably like to

00:40:41.800 just always be able

00:40:42.840 to get into your car,

00:40:44.220 start the ignition,

00:40:44.920 and go about your merry way

00:40:46.320 without ever having to worry

00:40:48.080 about getting repairs.

00:40:49.720 Unfortunately,

00:40:50.200 your car may have other plans

00:40:51.680 and let's face it,

00:40:53.160 you obviously have no idea

00:40:56.120 is going to happen.

00:41:44.240 So, this is what

00:41:49.960 the Biden administration

00:41:52.320 says about the U.S. border.

00:41:54.800 The border is secure.

00:41:58.500 Okay.

00:41:58.960 The border is secure.

00:42:01.340 The border is secure.

00:42:04.980 Okay.

00:42:05.520 That's Alejandro Mayorkas

00:42:07.300 who is trying to sell us

00:42:09.720 on the fact

00:42:10.380 that the border

00:42:10.940 is secure.

00:42:12.460 Now, only 250,000 people

00:42:15.300 breached it last month.

00:42:17.080 Yeah.

00:42:17.680 They came in contact

00:42:18.560 with the border agents anyway

00:42:19.860 and that's about

00:42:20.600 it's about three to one

00:42:22.600 not coming in contact

00:42:24.380 as come in contact.

00:42:25.820 So, what does that say

00:42:27.420 about the actual numbers

00:42:28.660 of people that cross the border?

00:42:30.640 750,000 in a month, perhaps?

00:42:33.180 Give or take.

00:42:33.860 Give or take.

00:42:34.740 Yeah.

00:42:34.900 And this all comes

00:42:35.580 from a man 0.83

00:42:36.040 whose last name

00:42:36.780 sounds like a flavor

00:42:37.720 brand of Greek yogurt.

00:42:39.840 Yes.

00:42:40.160 Doesn't it?

00:42:40.520 It does.

00:42:41.220 Couldn't you go by

00:42:42.040 Mayorkas yogurt?

00:42:43.180 I'd like the Mayorkas. 1.00

00:42:44.200 Yeah.

00:42:44.900 Do you have phage

00:42:45.660 or Mayorkas?

00:42:47.340 It just feels like

00:42:48.500 It does.

00:42:49.540 That's all I think about

00:42:50.240 when I hear the guy's name

00:42:50.920 is Greek yogurt.

00:42:51.640 I don't know why.

00:42:52.640 But it is,

00:42:53.680 I think I probably

00:42:54.380 should be thinking

00:42:54.920 more about the border.

00:42:56.300 Probably.

00:42:56.620 Because he does not

00:42:57.240 do a good job.

00:42:58.180 No.

00:42:58.380 This seems to be

00:42:59.100 one of the top targets

00:42:59.860 of Republicans.

00:43:01.040 And it should be

00:43:01.960 because it's asinine

00:43:04.880 what they're saying

00:43:05.700 about the border.

00:43:06.620 And that's why

00:43:07.220 Governor Greg Abbott

00:43:08.180 just sent a letter

00:43:09.640 to President Joe Biden

00:43:10.740 declaring Texas

00:43:11.600 was escalating

00:43:12.620 its border security efforts

00:43:13.920 by invoking

00:43:14.680 Article 1,

00:43:16.980 Section 10,

00:43:18.240 Clause 3

00:43:18.920 of the U.S. Constitution,

00:43:20.340 which enables states

00:43:22.040 to protect their own border

00:43:23.760 against invasion.

00:43:25.700 And in this case,

00:43:26.860 by the Mexican drug cartels.

00:43:28.380 And I'm sure

00:43:31.520 the federal government

00:43:33.220 will fight Texas

00:43:34.320 every step of the way.

00:43:35.980 But Abbott has even said

00:43:38.560 he's going to build

00:43:39.180 a border wall.

00:43:40.120 A border wall

00:43:41.060 like former President Trump

00:43:43.500 was talking about

00:43:44.280 building on the southern border.

00:43:45.940 Yeah, I mean,

00:43:46.280 one of the things

00:43:47.040 that was sort of lost

00:43:47.800 in the election win

00:43:49.420 with Ron DeSantis

00:43:51.240 doing so well in Florida

00:43:53.420 was how well

00:43:55.300 Republicans did in Texas.

00:43:57.020 I mean,

00:43:57.140 Greg Abbott won

00:43:59.180 by 12 points

00:44:00.020 over Beto O'Rourke,

00:44:00.980 a very well-funded opponent,

00:44:03.280 even though obviously

00:44:04.080 Beto's terrible

00:44:04.960 in every way.

00:44:05.880 Yeah, he still had

00:44:06.680 a lot of money.

00:44:07.360 Tons of money,

00:44:08.440 lots of notoriety,

00:44:09.920 you know,

00:44:10.360 big-time name recognition,

00:44:12.520 incredibly favorable

00:44:14.360 treatment from local media

00:44:15.980 in every city in Texas.

00:44:18.220 Even in Texas,

00:44:19.020 he gets great coverage.

00:44:19.840 And still,

00:44:20.600 Abbott blew him out.

00:44:21.620 And you know,

00:44:21.960 it's interesting,

00:44:23.180 you look at

00:44:23.840 those two options,

00:44:25.960 what do they have

00:44:27.120 in common?

00:44:28.100 Well,

00:44:28.320 they took big stances

00:44:29.260 on the border.

00:44:30.580 Yeah.

00:44:30.800 Both DeSantis

00:44:32.300 and Abbott

00:44:33.100 both were

00:44:34.080 sending migrants 1.00

00:44:35.860 up to random places

00:44:37.720 to make a statement.

00:44:40.420 Now,

00:44:40.760 of course,

00:44:40.980 the Arizona governor

00:44:41.720 did that as well,

00:44:42.580 but he was not running

00:44:43.420 for re-election.

00:44:45.780 But he,

00:44:46.820 you know,

00:44:47.160 he won his last election

00:44:48.060 by I think 14 points

00:44:49.160 Ducey in Arizona.

00:44:51.800 But in,

00:44:53.160 both in Texas

00:44:53.900 and Florida,

00:44:54.780 big wins for Republicans.

00:44:56.440 Big wins.

00:44:57.340 People love the fact,

00:44:59.060 I certainly do,

00:45:00.180 that they are giving New York

00:45:01.700 a taste of what it's like

00:45:02.860 to be a border city.

00:45:04.220 Yeah.

00:45:04.500 New York City has a taste,

00:45:05.980 just a tiny little

00:45:07.180 bite-sized taste,

00:45:08.720 like the fun-sized candies

00:45:10.500 you get at Halloween.

00:45:11.460 Yeah.

00:45:11.800 Not even,

00:45:12.140 not even like the snack size,

00:45:14.160 but the fun size.

00:45:14.740 Yeah,

00:45:14.840 the fun size.

00:45:15.580 It's a little teeny,

00:45:16.300 one bite,

00:45:16.940 and it's over.

00:45:18.580 They've had,

00:45:19.320 what,

00:45:19.500 24,000 illegals

00:45:20.720 sent their way.

00:45:21.800 Which is,

00:45:22.620 you know,

00:45:23.200 I mean,

00:45:23.560 that's significant,

00:45:24.720 but they're having

00:45:25.640 a cow over it.

00:45:27.760 They can't handle it.

00:45:29.560 They're trying to get Biden

00:45:30.580 to declare an emergency

00:45:32.120 for them

00:45:32.800 because they're in such

00:45:34.120 dire straits

00:45:35.660 because a few thousand people

00:45:37.440 have been sent their way.

00:45:39.280 I mean,

00:45:39.640 try to deal with what

00:45:40.840 Texas and Arizona

00:45:42.300 and California

00:45:43.160 have dealt with

00:45:43.900 for 40 years now.

00:45:46.520 And that's a border

00:45:47.820 that is nowhere near secure.

00:45:49.880 And a border

00:45:51.360 that brings across

00:45:52.440 a lot of drugs

00:45:53.880 and even some,

00:45:55.400 some people

00:45:57.900 on the terror watch list,

00:45:59.380 which it was 98

00:46:01.340 last month alone.

00:46:04.320 98 people

00:46:05.620 on the terror watch list

00:46:06.800 crossed the border.

00:46:07.600 Just the 98.

00:46:08.400 Yeah.

00:46:09.020 Nothing to worry about.

00:46:10.300 I mean,

00:46:10.480 it would take thousands

00:46:11.580 in order to do any harm,

00:46:13.200 right?

00:46:13.920 No,

00:46:14.440 wait.

00:46:14.700 There were 18

00:46:15.980 on 9-11.

00:46:18.680 So,

00:46:19.960 I guess maybe

00:46:21.200 they could do some damage.

00:46:22.280 I know the number

00:46:22.680 is really far.

00:46:23.620 It's the highest

00:46:24.120 we've seen it.

00:46:25.260 It's the highest

00:46:25.740 they've ever encountered.

00:46:27.680 And it used to be that,

00:46:29.960 and it probably still is,

00:46:31.020 where Democrats say,

00:46:31.840 oh,

00:46:32.000 that doesn't happen.

00:46:32.900 No,

00:46:33.160 they're not.

00:46:33.500 There's no terrorism

00:46:34.460 coming across

00:46:35.080 the southern border.

00:46:36.280 Really?

00:46:37.520 98

00:46:38.000 in one month.

00:46:39.500 It's really amazing.

00:46:40.660 And it's got to stop,

00:46:43.660 and that's why

00:46:44.460 Governor Abbott

00:46:45.300 is trying to take

00:46:46.300 some measures

00:46:47.700 in order to

00:46:49.200 calm it down

00:46:50.540 a little bit.

00:46:51.380 And you know,

00:46:52.040 Title 42

00:46:53.160 is about to end, too.

00:46:54.800 The COVID restriction

00:46:56.580 on border crossings.

00:46:58.220 They're going to,

00:46:58.580 that's going to

00:46:59.800 transpire,

00:47:01.960 expire,

00:47:02.940 not transpire,

00:47:03.660 but expire.

00:47:05.080 Is it December?

00:47:06.080 I think it's coming up here

00:47:08.160 very shortly.

00:47:09.420 And so,

00:47:09.780 they won't be able

00:47:10.260 to keep people

00:47:10.800 in Mexico

00:47:11.280 due to COVID.

00:47:12.240 That's over now.

00:47:14.140 So,

00:47:14.820 it's going to get even worse.

00:47:15.960 How ridiculous

00:47:16.480 was that whole scenario

00:47:17.800 where,

00:47:18.900 okay,

00:47:19.240 so the,

00:47:20.100 the,

00:47:20.500 the pandemic occurs.

00:47:22.220 Of course,

00:47:22.560 Mexico does 0.92

00:47:23.160 basically nothing.

00:47:24.200 They take almost

00:47:24.720 no steps whatsoever

00:47:26.040 at the beginning of this,

00:47:26.960 and they were

00:47:27.360 absolutely ravaged

00:47:28.740 by COVID.

00:47:29.400 I mean,

00:47:29.620 they had,

00:47:30.380 they weren't even testing.

00:47:31.600 Theirs was worse

00:47:32.440 than ours, right?

00:47:33.000 Much, yeah.

00:47:33.380 I mean,

00:47:33.780 it's,

00:47:34.580 you know,

00:47:34.840 the official number

00:47:35.840 is lower,

00:47:36.620 but they were doing

00:47:37.820 almost nothing

00:47:38.540 to monitor it.

00:47:39.220 So,

00:47:39.740 we don't,

00:47:39.940 we don't know

00:47:40.400 how bad it actually got,

00:47:41.680 but there were times

00:47:42.200 where the entire country

00:47:43.120 was testing positive

00:47:44.000 at like 25%.

00:47:45.380 It was like,

00:47:46.280 insanely high.

00:47:47.900 And,

00:47:48.320 you know,

00:47:48.420 it's kind of what you'd

00:47:49.200 expect in some ways

00:47:50.720 of a,

00:47:51.060 of a country

00:47:51.520 with a,

00:47:51.960 a inferior health system.

00:47:54.480 And not to say

00:47:56.460 that ours was a magical

00:47:57.520 success here,

00:47:58.320 but we,

00:47:58.860 you know,

00:47:59.400 had,

00:47:59.840 had more luck

00:48:00.840 than a lot of

00:48:01.400 Central and Southern

00:48:02.320 America did.

00:48:03.180 So,

00:48:03.460 the border was a

00:48:04.340 pretty important part

00:48:05.440 of keeping

00:48:06.600 the virus under control.

00:48:08.420 You didn't want people

00:48:08.920 crossing the border

00:48:10.240 without bringing the virus

00:48:13.100 into the country,

00:48:13.860 especially if we got it

00:48:14.760 under control.

00:48:15.760 And I kept saying,

00:48:16.600 you know,

00:48:16.720 at the time it was like,

00:48:17.580 okay,

00:48:17.800 well,

00:48:18.300 let's say we

00:48:19.000 do all these restrictions

00:48:20.540 and it works perfectly

00:48:21.800 and COVID goes away

00:48:23.340 because everybody

00:48:24.080 is masking up

00:48:25.900 and,

00:48:26.320 and,

00:48:26.740 and this is pre,

00:48:27.740 pre vaccine,

00:48:28.680 but like,

00:48:28.980 you know,

00:48:29.240 masking up and,

00:48:30.120 and staying away

00:48:30.860 from each other

00:48:31.320 and social distancing

00:48:32.120 and not going to work

00:48:33.060 and not eating inside

00:48:33.880 and all the things

00:48:34.400 they wanted us to do.

00:48:35.440 Well,

00:48:35.720 what happens when you

00:48:36.480 leave the border

00:48:37.000 wide open?

00:48:38.720 Nothing.

00:48:39.560 It doesn't do us

00:48:40.460 any good at all

00:48:41.500 because then you have

00:48:42.700 people bringing in

00:48:43.540 the virus anyway

00:48:44.700 and we start this whole

00:48:46.240 thing over and over again,

00:48:47.360 but the Democrats

00:48:48.000 never cared

00:48:49.080 about that.

00:48:50.200 In fact,

00:48:50.360 they fought

00:48:50.980 against the COVID

00:48:52.800 restrictions on the border

00:48:53.880 over and over again

00:48:54.680 and while they were

00:48:55.820 making sure

00:48:56.600 our teachers

00:48:58.140 and our

00:48:59.340 first responders

00:49:01.560 and all of these things

00:49:02.540 were getting fired

00:49:03.260 from their jobs

00:49:04.100 because they didn't

00:49:04.680 take the vaccine,

00:49:05.720 they were not requiring

00:49:06.800 the vaccine

00:49:07.380 for illegal immigrants

00:49:09.060 being allowed

00:49:09.520 into the country.

00:49:11.120 Yeah.

00:49:11.280 Now,

00:49:11.520 why on earth

00:49:12.260 we actually do

00:49:13.760 have a legitimate

00:49:14.960 constitutional right

00:49:16.380 to tell

00:49:17.500 citizens of other countries

00:49:19.860 if they're going

00:49:20.660 to come into

00:49:21.140 our country,

00:49:21.680 we can put

00:49:22.300 all sorts

00:49:23.020 of crazy

00:49:23.600 restrictions on them

00:49:24.380 because we are

00:49:24.980 a sovereign nation

00:49:25.900 and so you might

00:49:27.200 not like,

00:49:27.700 you know,

00:49:28.000 vaccine requirements

00:49:29.360 as I do not like

00:49:30.300 vaccine requirements,

00:49:31.200 but we absolutely

00:49:32.880 have the right

00:49:33.640 to put vaccine

00:49:34.360 requirements on

00:49:35.100 people visiting

00:49:35.680 this country.

00:49:36.520 We do not have

00:49:36.860 to let anybody

00:49:37.300 in here if we

00:49:37.800 don't want to.

00:49:38.440 We are a sovereign

00:49:39.080 nation.

00:49:39.980 Now,

00:49:40.080 you might think

00:49:40.700 that's a dumb idea

00:49:41.540 which I would agree

00:49:42.180 with you,

00:49:42.600 but like,

00:49:44.020 we have all sorts

00:49:45.160 of vaccine requirements

00:49:46.220 for people

00:49:46.840 visiting the country

00:49:48.460 way before COVID

00:49:50.220 was a thing.

00:49:51.180 Yeah.

00:49:51.320 Like,

00:49:51.560 we don't want

00:49:52.540 people bringing in,

00:49:53.240 you know,

00:49:53.700 all sorts of

00:49:55.360 different diseases

00:49:56.380 that are hot spots

00:49:58.860 all around the world.

00:50:00.720 We don't want people

00:50:01.180 bringing them in here,

00:50:01.980 so we require that

00:50:02.980 and that's totally

00:50:03.700 our right as a country,

00:50:04.800 but yet the Democrats

00:50:06.140 were like,

00:50:06.520 no,

00:50:06.760 just like,

00:50:07.200 we got a pandemic

00:50:07.920 going on.

00:50:09.000 We're ruining the lives

00:50:10.440 of all of our citizens,

00:50:11.720 but if you want

00:50:12.560 to come in here

00:50:13.040 illegally,

00:50:13.500 you don't have

00:50:14.020 to get the vaccine.

00:50:14.700 Don't worry about

00:50:15.080 that at all.

00:50:15.660 Just come on in.

00:50:17.180 I just don't

00:50:17.860 understand it.

00:50:18.920 Don't understand it.

00:50:20.100 Obviously,

00:50:20.460 what they're saying

00:50:21.080 is not true.

00:50:21.900 Yeah.

00:50:22.140 They don't actually

00:50:23.280 care about these things.

00:50:25.400 They've got other

00:50:25.940 things at play

00:50:26.720 and they've been

00:50:28.320 working these same

00:50:29.280 agendas for a long

00:50:30.220 time,

00:50:30.600 but it is,

00:50:31.920 it's really weird

00:50:33.140 to watch it play out

00:50:33.980 in real time

00:50:34.520 because they don't

00:50:35.320 even try to square

00:50:36.420 the circle.

00:50:36.880 They don't try to

00:50:37.680 close the loop here.

00:50:39.260 They don't try to

00:50:39.720 make any of this

00:50:40.380 make sense.

00:50:41.720 No,

00:50:42.020 they really don't.

00:50:43.040 They really don't.

00:50:43.780 Did you get the,

00:50:44.520 did you get the boosters?

00:50:46.740 I got a booster.

00:50:48.500 Oh,

00:50:48.740 you did?

00:50:49.500 Last year.

00:50:50.240 Up to three.

00:50:50.780 Up to three shots?

00:50:51.720 No,

00:50:51.740 two.

00:50:52.700 Okay,

00:50:53.060 so you got the,

00:50:53.800 you're fully vaxxed.

00:50:55.160 Yes.

00:50:56.460 And I got one booster

00:50:57.520 before the Omicron thing

00:50:59.320 and I will say,

00:50:59.820 look,

00:51:00.200 I don't,

00:51:02.000 I literally don't care

00:51:04.040 if you get your vaccine

00:51:05.040 at all.

00:51:05.620 I don't care what

00:51:06.440 you do with your life.

00:51:07.340 I don't care what

00:51:07.940 medicine you take,

00:51:08.900 whether,

00:51:09.220 and you shouldn't care

00:51:09.980 if I do.

00:51:10.420 No one,

00:51:12.600 no one cares.

00:51:13.340 And my,

00:51:13.620 you know,

00:51:13.880 I don't,

00:51:14.700 there's no reason

00:51:15.400 to talk about this.

00:51:16.100 People have made

00:51:16.520 their mind up

00:51:16.960 or they've already

00:51:17.520 had it at this point.

00:51:18.460 I mean,

00:51:18.580 we're so far beyond

00:51:19.640 the point where

00:51:20.080 this makes any point

00:51:20.900 to talk about.

00:51:22.140 But,

00:51:22.560 but I did get the,

00:51:24.980 the,

00:51:25.540 I got the Johnson 1.00

00:51:26.060 and Johnson one

00:51:26.620 initially.

00:51:27.540 So I had the one shot.

00:51:29.040 Right.

00:51:29.420 And then I got the one booster

00:51:31.180 before Omicron.

00:51:32.280 And I don't know.

00:51:32.720 I mean,

00:51:32.940 who knows what happens

00:51:34.200 with this stuff?

00:51:34.520 I will say I did sit in here

00:51:35.660 with one Glenn bank

00:51:36.820 with COVID

00:51:38.680 unknowing to me

00:51:40.120 in this little tiny room

00:51:41.500 we sit in

00:51:42.040 and him blabbing

00:51:43.540 and screaming 0.96

00:51:44.140 and yelling 0.83

00:51:44.700 two feet away from me

00:51:45.940 for,

00:51:46.580 for three shows.

00:51:49.040 And you did not get it.

00:51:49.900 Three shows.

00:51:50.480 He,

00:51:50.660 nine,

00:51:51.180 nine hours of radio

00:51:52.620 and I did not get it.

00:51:53.940 So if there's any,

00:51:55.160 I don't know

00:51:55.840 if that had anything to do,

00:51:56.720 whatever,

00:51:57.260 who cares at this point,

00:51:58.240 but get it or don't.

00:51:59.160 Well,

00:51:59.360 you had it too.

00:52:00.040 So you've got natural immunity

00:52:01.280 and yes,

00:52:02.240 I got it before the vaccines

00:52:03.420 even came out.

00:52:04.160 Right.

00:52:04.640 And like,

00:52:05.180 look,

00:52:05.880 everyone,

00:52:06.780 the vaccine thing

00:52:07.660 is just so beat to death

00:52:09.220 at this point in my mind,

00:52:10.220 but it's like,

00:52:10.860 you know,

00:52:11.600 nothing worked fully.

00:52:13.520 Right.

00:52:13.960 Like you had,

00:52:14.620 I think when you look at death

00:52:16.100 and both natural immunity

00:52:18.340 and the vaccine

00:52:18.820 seem to work really well

00:52:19.740 against death

00:52:20.360 and,

00:52:20.600 and,

00:52:20.940 and hospitalization.

00:52:22.620 Yeah,

00:52:22.880 it did.

00:52:23.360 Once Omicron hit

00:52:24.580 both the vaccine

00:52:25.900 and all,

00:52:27.540 we should note

00:52:28.000 also natural immunity.

00:52:29.760 Yeah.

00:52:29.980 We're out the window.

00:52:30.680 Glenn got it twice.

00:52:32.060 He got it the first time

00:52:33.020 and then he had natural immunity.

00:52:34.500 He had a really bad case

00:52:35.580 the first time.

00:52:36.260 I mean,

00:52:36.420 he was in real,

00:52:37.660 a really,

00:52:38.500 really rough spot

00:52:39.460 the first time he got COVID.

00:52:40.900 Yeah.

00:52:41.200 And then he got it again

00:52:42.620 the next year.

00:52:43.600 And it wasn't nearly as bad.

00:52:44.700 It wasn't as bad

00:52:45.440 because he had some natural immunity.

00:52:46.660 just wasn't.

00:52:47.280 It cut through all of the stuff

00:52:48.340 when it came to transmission.

00:52:49.640 I mean,

00:52:49.760 it came,

00:52:50.060 it cut through all of it.

00:52:50.960 Yeah.

00:52:51.240 But I mean,

00:52:51.680 regardless.

00:52:52.940 But it didn't matter as much

00:52:53.440 because it was much milder.

00:52:54.800 It was much milder.

00:52:56.020 So.

00:52:56.660 Look,

00:52:57.840 you know,

00:52:58.060 this is the thing.

00:52:59.420 And,

00:52:59.660 you know,

00:52:59.940 I talk about this.

00:53:00.780 A lot of people around here

00:53:01.600 who are,

00:53:02.040 you know,

00:53:03.020 totally against getting

00:53:04.240 the COVID vaccine.

00:53:05.080 And like,

00:53:05.660 that's,

00:53:06.200 you're right.

00:53:07.020 As a human being,

00:53:07.940 you should be able to make

00:53:08.640 your own freaking decisions.

00:53:09.800 And the reason why

00:53:11.140 I think people get so crazy

00:53:12.540 and passionate about,

00:53:13.480 about this stuff

00:53:14.260 is because you're asking them

00:53:16.760 to do something

00:53:17.260 they don't want to do

00:53:18.360 and forcing them to do it,

00:53:20.940 threatening them

00:53:21.640 with their livelihood

00:53:22.660 to get it or not.

00:53:23.480 That was always the issue.

00:53:24.440 Not whether or not you got it.

00:53:25.620 Yeah.

00:53:25.820 It's whether or not

00:53:26.640 the government forced you

00:53:28.120 to get it.

00:53:28.740 Yes.

00:53:29.380 I mean,

00:53:29.640 look.

00:53:29.840 Which should never have happened.

00:53:31.920 Medicine should not be

00:53:33.700 a political issue like this.

00:53:35.280 Right.

00:53:35.440 It's dumb.

00:53:36.420 Just get it if you want to get it.

00:53:38.040 Right.

00:53:38.340 You know,

00:53:38.540 how many medicines

00:53:39.120 are you taking, Pat?

00:53:40.100 I don't know if you're like me.

00:53:41.060 I'm getting old.

00:53:41.840 I'm in my mid-40s right now.

00:53:43.360 So I have a giant pack of pills

00:53:45.940 that you're taking

00:53:46.520 like every day.

00:53:47.200 Vitamins and nutrients

00:53:48.260 and minerals and medicines

00:53:49.680 and I don't even know

00:53:50.460 some of it.

00:53:51.460 I don't even think it's real.

00:53:52.640 I think my wife

00:53:53.360 is just slipping in

00:53:53.860 like Pez candies in there

00:53:55.020 at this point

00:53:55.360 just to fill up the box.

00:53:56.680 Yeah.

00:53:56.860 But the bottom line is like

00:53:58.200 we don't need to discuss

00:54:00.400 every freaking medicine we take.

00:54:02.780 That's what you do

00:54:03.560 when you get older

00:54:04.200 and you're a guy.

00:54:05.200 Every time you see

00:54:06.100 your old friend

00:54:06.540 you're like,

00:54:06.900 hey.

00:54:07.420 My liver pills.

00:54:08.600 Oh,

00:54:08.680 you guys taking that

00:54:09.480 new liver pill?

00:54:10.480 Oh,

00:54:10.940 it's wonderful.

00:54:11.980 It's doing wonders.

00:54:12.860 My liver feels better

00:54:13.920 than it has

00:54:14.680 since I was in my 60s.

00:54:17.280 That's what

00:54:17.860 every conversation becomes.

00:54:19.840 That doesn't have

00:54:20.780 to be our society.

00:54:22.700 888-727-BECK.

00:54:35.440 Pat and Stu for Glenn today.

00:54:37.340 Let's go to Brian

00:54:38.280 in Ohio.

00:54:40.440 Hey, Brian.

00:54:41.160 You're on the Glenn Beck program.

00:54:43.820 Hey,

00:54:44.420 can you hear me?

00:54:45.280 Yep.

00:54:45.940 Through the miracle

00:54:46.560 of modern technology.

00:54:48.380 Yes,

00:54:48.820 yes.

00:54:49.420 Wonderful.

00:54:50.260 Now,

00:54:50.440 I just had a theory

00:54:51.380 I wanted to run by you guys.

00:54:53.020 You're going to think

00:54:53.600 I'm trying to be silly,

00:54:55.640 but I think I might be

00:54:56.740 on something there.

00:54:58.220 First off,

00:54:58.920 let me say

00:54:59.480 that I do believe

00:55:00.680 as far as the

00:55:02.280 Paul Pelosi attack

00:55:03.460 that they

00:55:03.960 wore both

00:55:05.220 in their underwear.

00:55:05.960 That's a strong stance.

00:55:10.420 I do believe that.

00:55:12.180 I do believe that

00:55:12.980 to be true.

00:55:14.180 And just to cut

00:55:15.120 to the chase here,

00:55:16.140 I think that there

00:55:17.020 was something going on

00:55:17.960 between the two gentlemen

00:55:19.000 and the assailant

00:55:21.740 came over,

00:55:22.560 you know,

00:55:22.940 to have a sexy time.

00:55:25.440 We'll just say that.

00:55:26.280 And that's why Paul Pelosi

00:55:32.880 didn't sound irate

00:55:35.600 or screaming or anything

00:55:37.260 and kept his composure

00:55:38.880 when he called 911.

00:55:40.560 And obviously,

00:55:41.500 when the cops

00:55:42.220 did finally show up,

00:55:43.440 once again,

00:55:44.440 like everyone says,

00:55:45.360 he didn't run out the door

00:55:46.420 and get behind the cops.

00:55:48.340 He went back

00:55:48.920 to the assailant.

00:55:49.880 So, yeah,

00:55:50.160 I think

00:55:50.420 they were making

00:55:53.120 a little gay. 0.62

00:55:54.200 Thank you very much.

00:55:56.540 I mean, look,

00:55:57.060 I don't think there's

00:55:58.080 look,

00:56:00.460 there was an initial report

00:56:01.700 that said they were

00:56:02.480 in their underwear.

00:56:03.300 There was one initial report

00:56:04.380 that was retracted

00:56:05.180 within an hour or two.

00:56:06.700 And really,

00:56:07.560 there hasn't been

00:56:08.020 much more about that.

00:56:08.960 Look,

00:56:09.120 the bottom line is

00:56:09.680 we have that

00:56:10.700 we're going to have

00:56:11.280 video evidence of this

00:56:12.680 and eventually

00:56:13.100 we'll probably know

00:56:14.060 a lot more of the answer.

00:56:15.260 I will say

00:56:15.820 we've got the

00:56:16.680 we've got the cops

00:56:18.540 body cams, right?

00:56:20.520 Yeah,

00:56:20.980 eventually we're going

00:56:21.660 to see that.

00:56:22.280 Eventually we'll see that.

00:56:23.000 I think.

00:56:23.440 But there's also

00:56:24.080 there should be

00:56:24.700 security cameras

00:56:25.480 from the house

00:56:26.100 that we'll see that as well.

00:56:27.500 Exactly.

00:56:28.000 Now,

00:56:28.220 if they were

00:56:28.540 in their underwear together,

00:56:30.420 you would think

00:56:31.020 that he wouldn't have

00:56:31.980 broken into the house, right?

00:56:33.200 Paul Pelosi

00:56:33.660 would have let him in.

00:56:34.560 It wouldn't make much sense

00:56:35.900 to even break the window.

00:56:37.320 Now, you know,

00:56:37.620 look,

00:56:37.880 everyone pointed out

00:56:38.360 the glasses on the outside.

00:56:39.380 All these things,

00:56:39.980 there's a million theories

00:56:40.940 out there.

00:56:41.540 I will say

00:56:41.980 one of the things

00:56:42.720 that feeds these theories,

00:56:44.480 right or wrong,

00:56:45.480 is, for example,

00:56:46.260 what happened

00:56:46.600 with the NBC reporter

00:56:47.580 who came out

00:56:48.540 and said,

00:56:49.040 hey,

00:56:49.560 looks like Pelosi

00:56:50.980 opened the door

00:56:51.640 and then walked back

00:56:52.280 over to his attacker

00:56:53.800 where then they had

00:56:54.600 this interaction.

00:56:57.280 That whole thing

00:56:59.960 that he said

00:57:00.780 and was,

00:57:02.060 by the way,

00:57:02.420 not a live

00:57:03.340 off-the-cuff thing.

00:57:05.040 It was a produced report

00:57:06.520 built with graphics

00:57:08.560 and all sorts.

00:57:09.960 I mean,

00:57:10.140 you know,

00:57:10.500 look,

00:57:10.840 not everybody in the audience

00:57:12.040 goes through TV broadcasts

00:57:13.540 every day,

00:57:13.840 but like when you want

00:57:14.660 to get a graphic made,

00:57:15.840 when you're doing

00:57:16.380 a recorded piece,

00:57:18.180 this goes through

00:57:18.800 all sorts of layers

00:57:20.220 of checking.

00:57:21.180 It doesn't just

00:57:21.660 get on the air.

00:57:23.440 You have to go,

00:57:24.260 there's people

00:57:24.940 who look at it,

00:57:26.140 especially at a place

00:57:26.860 like NBC News,

00:57:27.860 there's people

00:57:28.140 who approve it.

00:57:29.540 When we were at CNN,

00:57:31.020 good God,

00:57:31.700 to get a recorded

00:57:32.680 piece on the air.

00:57:33.720 Whenever we would go

00:57:34.480 to, you know,

00:57:35.220 we would go to get

00:57:35.820 something done

00:57:37.740 in the edit room,

00:57:39.260 I mean,

00:57:39.660 they had the editors

00:57:40.440 basically reporting

00:57:41.540 to higher authorities

00:57:43.740 when they thought

00:57:44.460 we were doing something

00:57:45.760 that wasn't accurate

00:57:46.520 and then we would get

00:57:47.080 called in and we would say,

00:57:48.060 well,

00:57:48.200 can you back this up?

00:57:48.980 And we'd have to take out

00:57:49.740 the documentation

00:57:50.320 and show them that we could,

00:57:51.640 yes,

00:57:51.880 back this up.

00:57:52.700 There's all sorts of layers.

00:57:53.840 So this goes on.

00:57:54.500 Then this guy gets suspended

00:57:55.500 and then while he's still

00:57:57.560 currently suspended,

00:57:59.540 we have the other reporting

00:58:03.380 coming out that,

00:58:03.960 yes,

00:58:04.140 this is what happened.

00:58:05.180 He came to the door

00:58:06.240 and then he opened the door

00:58:07.540 and he went back

00:58:07.940 toward his reporter,

00:58:09.240 his attacker.

00:58:11.100 Now,

00:58:11.360 the reporter at the time

00:58:12.540 gave an explanation

00:58:14.340 for why this could occur

00:58:15.560 that was not,

00:58:16.380 not,

00:58:17.980 you know,

00:58:18.640 egregious

00:58:19.300 or not

00:58:20.420 conspiratorial.

00:58:22.340 Not at all.

00:58:23.720 Police did not know

00:58:25.400 his mental state

00:58:27.440 at the time

00:58:28.040 indicating like

00:58:29.480 maybe Pelosi

00:58:31.140 had already been

00:58:31.620 hit in the head

00:58:32.380 with a hammer already

00:58:33.240 and he didn't know

00:58:34.320 what anything was going on.

00:58:35.360 Right,

00:58:35.540 like totally believable

00:58:37.140 but when you,

00:58:38.760 and that may be the cause

00:58:39.740 but when you go

00:58:40.700 and then you

00:58:41.200 silence a reporter

00:58:42.780 for no reason,

00:58:44.180 give no explanation,

00:58:45.860 think of the things

00:58:46.840 that reporters 0.82

00:58:47.980 demand explanations

00:58:49.000 of.

00:58:49.320 All the time

00:58:49.780 when people get fired

00:58:50.580 they demand explanations.

00:58:52.040 If someone makes

00:58:52.740 an accusation

00:58:53.560 against a man

00:58:54.960 in power,

00:58:55.560 some woman 0.52

00:58:56.040 who the guy says

00:58:57.400 he doesn't even know,

00:58:58.500 he's forced

00:58:59.500 to make a statement

00:59:00.320 because the media

00:59:00.960 demands it.

00:59:02.080 Yet,

00:59:02.700 the media never gives

00:59:03.780 explanations for the

00:59:04.500 crap they do.

00:59:05.380 When they have

00:59:06.240 the Me Too person

00:59:07.060 in their organization,

00:59:08.460 they say nothing.

00:59:10.080 They say nothing

00:59:10.840 and no other media

00:59:11.700 organization bothers

00:59:12.760 them about it

00:59:13.640 because they know

00:59:14.520 next time it's probably

00:59:15.540 going to be them.

00:59:16.680 So they all work together

00:59:18.120 to make their lives easier

00:59:19.520 and destroy everybody 0.90

00:59:20.980 else's lives.

00:59:22.360 So now this poor reporter

00:59:23.960 who did nothing

00:59:24.960 but report the facts

00:59:26.760 of the situation

00:59:28.200 now backed up

00:59:29.220 by multiple other

00:59:30.220 mainstream media sources,

00:59:31.560 he's still suspended

00:59:32.700 and his reputation

00:59:34.080 has been destroyed.

00:59:35.200 I would not be surprised

00:59:36.560 to see Miguel Amager

00:59:37.880 fired from now on.

00:59:40.500 Sometime in the near future

00:59:41.720 we'll just hear,

00:59:42.380 yeah,

00:59:42.540 he's been let go.

00:59:43.400 And there's no reason

00:59:45.340 for it.

00:59:46.700 Absolutely no reason

00:59:47.780 for it.

00:59:49.540 Crazy.

00:59:50.380 It really is.

00:59:51.360 I mean,

00:59:51.560 and it just,

00:59:52.200 like you said,

00:59:53.000 it just leads you

00:59:53.760 to believe that there's

00:59:54.460 something else going on.

00:59:56.940 Stop contributing

00:59:57.900 to the conspiracy theories.

00:59:59.340 Tell us what really

01:00:00.000 happened then.

01:00:01.220 Show us the video.

01:00:57.460 By the way,

01:00:57.940 I think we're going to do

01:00:58.520 this week

01:00:58.940 an election wrap-up

01:01:00.760 Q&A

01:01:01.200 on the YouTubes.

01:01:02.960 So go there

01:01:03.460 and subscribe

01:01:03.940 and if you click

01:01:04.720 the little bell

01:01:05.200 they'll alert you

01:01:05.780 when we're doing a live

01:01:06.500 you can ask your questions

01:01:07.300 whatever you want

01:01:07.880 as it comes to the election

01:01:10.100 kind of looking back

01:01:10.860 and wrapping it up

01:01:11.820 before we go to the holidays.

01:01:12.880 What do you think

01:01:13.400 are the odds

01:01:14.120 that Herschel wins

01:01:15.120 in Georgia?

01:01:17.580 I would say

01:01:18.780 I mean,

01:01:21.700 I think it's pretty close

01:01:22.500 to 50-50.

01:01:23.060 I think he has a chance.

01:01:24.000 I think the

01:01:24.920 sort of common

01:01:26.800 knowledge,

01:01:28.460 the common

01:01:28.960 take on this

01:01:30.100 is that

01:01:30.520 because Kemp

01:01:31.540 isn't there

01:01:32.120 to help him

01:01:32.740 he'll wind up losing

01:01:34.080 but you know

01:01:35.900 I mean

01:01:36.160 However,

01:01:36.520 the independent

01:01:38.400 or libertarian

01:01:39.280 whoever else was running

01:01:40.280 isn't there either

01:01:41.480 to hurt him

01:01:42.420 and he took what

01:01:44.500 2% of the vote

01:01:46.180 I think?

01:01:46.640 Something like that

01:01:47.140 2.1%

01:01:48.600 But

01:01:49.560 the other thing is

01:01:51.220 now the Senate

01:01:51.960 not on the line

01:01:53.520 so perhaps

01:01:54.520 there's not

01:01:55.020 quite as much

01:01:55.680 focus on that.

01:01:56.720 I think in a

01:01:57.280 normal race

01:01:59.780 where

01:02:00.560 people

01:02:01.420 it's still

01:02:02.380 a leaning

01:02:03.000 red state

01:02:03.740 I think

01:02:04.220 you saw that

01:02:05.080 in the gubernatorial

01:02:05.960 race

01:02:06.700 Kemp did a good job

01:02:08.180 I think he's a pretty

01:02:08.740 good governor

01:02:09.200 and has a pretty

01:02:11.280 good record

01:02:11.760 people would

01:02:12.840 remember that

01:02:13.520 he got yelled

01:02:15.120 at by President

01:02:16.140 Trump for opening

01:02:16.940 too early

01:02:17.620 people forget

01:02:20.100 that

01:02:20.420 so he had

01:02:21.540 a good record

01:02:22.380 through COVID

01:02:22.920 he's had a good

01:02:23.720 record as a governor

01:02:24.480 and he

01:02:26.460 won easily

01:02:27.380 I mean

01:02:27.800 blew out

01:02:28.300 Stacey Abrams

01:02:29.080 so

01:02:29.980 I think

01:02:31.300 in a normal

01:02:32.220 race

01:02:32.740 that's

01:02:34.100 sort of

01:02:34.740 still where

01:02:35.700 there's still

01:02:36.460 a lean to the

01:02:37.120 red for Georgia

01:02:37.900 and in a

01:02:38.680 lower turnout

01:02:39.480 race

01:02:39.940 with the

01:02:40.320 Senate

01:02:40.680 not on the

01:02:41.260 line now

01:02:41.840 I think

01:02:42.120 he's got

01:02:42.380 a chance

01:02:42.820 I think

01:02:43.180 you know

01:02:44.400 he might be

01:02:44.760 the slight

01:02:45.160 underdog

01:02:45.620 but he

01:02:46.580 I think

01:02:46.960 he has a

01:02:47.320 real chance

01:02:47.700 of winning

01:02:47.980 that race

01:02:48.400 and if

01:02:48.660 the Republicans

01:02:49.120 take

01:02:49.360 I mean

01:02:49.880 one thing

01:02:50.160 I will

01:02:50.380 say

01:02:50.620 to

01:02:51.420 Republicans

01:02:52.460 who are

01:02:52.700 frustrated

01:02:53.180 maybe in

01:02:53.840 Georgia

01:02:54.080 and saying

01:02:54.440 oh gosh

01:02:54.880 I don't know

01:02:55.160 if I want

01:02:55.360 to go out

01:02:55.600 and bother

01:02:55.920 here

01:02:56.220 I understand

01:02:56.980 that

01:02:57.320 but remember

01:02:58.100 this is

01:02:58.540 a Senate

01:02:59.380 term

01:02:59.700 this is

01:03:00.100 six years

01:03:01.060 this is

01:03:01.840 a seat

01:03:02.240 in the

01:03:02.680 bank

01:03:03.000 when 2024

01:03:04.260 comes

01:03:04.860 right

01:03:05.720 that's a

01:03:06.160 big deal

01:03:06.880 it's a seat

01:03:07.280 you don't have

01:03:07.780 to win

01:03:08.200 in 2024

01:03:08.800 it's already

01:03:09.500 there

01:03:09.780 in 2024

01:03:10.300 and 2026

01:03:11.960 when you're

01:03:13.340 fighting for

01:03:14.100 control of

01:03:14.580 the Senate

01:03:14.800 that's an

01:03:15.320 election

01:03:15.560 you've already

01:03:16.160 won for

01:03:16.640 both of

01:03:17.000 those two

01:03:17.360 cycles

01:03:17.760 when we

01:03:18.980 talked about

01:03:19.320 this

01:03:19.560 and Warnock

01:03:20.200 is such a

01:03:20.900 radical

01:03:21.240 so bad

01:03:21.780 too

01:03:22.060 you want him

01:03:23.020 in there

01:03:23.240 for six

01:03:23.620 more years

01:03:24.000 the guy

01:03:24.580 ran over

01:03:25.020 his wife

01:03:25.700 well

01:03:26.220 that's

01:03:26.420 her foot 0.98

01:03:27.080 wait

01:03:28.880 he ran

01:03:29.780 over his

01:03:30.140 wife's

01:03:30.440 foot

01:03:30.660 yeah

01:03:31.020 he did

01:03:31.600 intentional

01:03:32.160 I believe

01:03:33.120 so

01:03:33.340 yes

01:03:33.640 apparently

01:03:34.980 it was

01:03:35.380 intentional

01:03:35.760 they were

01:03:36.100 in a little

01:03:36.420 I mean

01:03:37.160 this is

01:03:37.840 this is

01:03:38.880 bad

01:03:39.220 this is

01:03:40.520 all the

01:03:40.780 people talk

01:03:41.560 about

01:03:41.880 in this

01:03:42.400 election

01:03:42.700 is who

01:03:43.140 did what

01:03:43.580 to the

01:03:43.880 person's

01:03:44.380 ex-wife

01:03:44.840 which is

01:03:46.500 a bizarre

01:03:46.900 way to go

01:03:47.460 but you know

01:03:48.380 if we remember

01:03:49.540 this election

01:03:50.180 Pat started

01:03:50.880 in the bank

01:03:52.340 36 to 29

01:03:54.040 Democrats

01:03:54.520 with the lead

01:03:54.940 they were up

01:03:55.760 by seven

01:03:56.320 coming into

01:03:57.040 the election

01:03:57.520 wow

01:03:58.060 so that

01:03:59.400 padding

01:03:59.900 makes a

01:04:00.340 big difference

01:04:01.200 yeah

01:04:01.540 so really

01:04:02.340 I mean

01:04:02.660 making sure

01:04:03.200 Herschel Walker

01:04:03.700 can get this

01:04:04.240 seat is still

01:04:05.120 a massive

01:04:06.120 focus

01:04:06.520 it's only

01:04:06.960 three weeks

01:04:07.740 away

01:04:08.000 something like

01:04:08.340 that

01:04:08.480 and it's

01:04:08.940 a big deal

01:04:09.560 for 2024

01:04:10.520 when Republicans

01:04:11.920 have a little

01:04:12.440 bit better

01:04:12.920 chance

01:04:13.420 of winning

01:04:14.580 back the

01:04:15.100 Senate

01:04:15.300 yeah

01:04:15.580 in fact

01:04:15.900 they should

01:04:16.700 unless things

01:04:18.540 go terribly

01:04:19.240 wrongly

01:04:19.800 terrible

01:04:20.420 for them

01:04:21.260 in the next

01:04:21.560 couple years

01:04:22.100 they should

01:04:22.520 easily win

01:04:23.780 back the

01:04:24.120 Senate

01:04:24.760 in 2024

01:04:25.780 the map

01:04:26.560 favors them

01:04:27.640 in a big

01:04:27.980 way

01:04:28.260 the question

01:04:29.160 is

01:04:29.540 what happens

01:04:30.560 over the next

01:04:30.920 couple years

01:04:31.380 if we have

01:04:31.960 economic problems

01:04:32.780 if we kind

01:04:33.220 of see

01:04:33.440 what we

01:04:33.740 the situation

01:04:34.400 we have

01:04:34.740 here

01:04:34.960 and of course

01:04:35.620 we should

01:04:35.960 note

01:04:36.180 good candidates

01:04:36.880 are picked

01:04:37.880 in the primaries

01:04:38.500 which is vitally

01:04:39.160 important as we've

01:04:39.820 seen here

01:04:40.280 if that happens

01:04:41.580 Republicans will be 0.92

01:04:42.340 heavily favored

01:04:43.000 they were the

01:04:43.540 underdog coming

01:04:44.340 in to this

01:04:45.420 if you took out

01:04:46.380 Joe Biden's

01:04:47.260 performance

01:04:47.660 and just said

01:04:48.940 okay what's the

01:04:49.540 state of play

01:04:50.060 here

01:04:50.300 you'd say

01:04:51.040 okay Democrats

01:04:51.700 have a big

01:04:52.240 edge going

01:04:53.080 into this

01:04:53.620 race

01:04:54.200 just because

01:04:54.860 of the map

01:04:55.360 nothing to do

01:04:56.080 with any

01:04:56.800 rules they broke

01:04:57.720 nothing to do

01:04:58.240 with any

01:04:58.620 you know

01:04:59.060 underhanded

01:04:59.740 tactics

01:05:00.180 just the fact

01:05:01.180 that they

01:05:01.640 start up

01:05:02.160 36-29

01:05:03.020 and a tie

01:05:04.760 is a loss

01:05:05.560 for Republicans

01:05:06.420 50-50

01:05:07.200 is a loss

01:05:07.740 yeah

01:05:08.300 so you know

01:05:09.680 there's a real

01:05:10.240 there's a real

01:05:10.840 situation there

01:05:11.520 where

01:05:11.700 so they actually

01:05:12.480 had to in reality

01:05:13.700 win 12 seats

01:05:15.720 right

01:05:16.800 11 seats

01:05:17.840 no

01:05:18.800 they had to get

01:05:19.420 to 12 right

01:05:20.100 if they were

01:05:20.540 29

01:05:21.060 if they were

01:05:22.160 at 29

01:05:22.820 well they have

01:05:23.480 to get to

01:05:23.760 22

01:05:24.200 they had to

01:05:24.660 win 22

01:05:25.180 seats to get

01:05:25.760 to 51

01:05:26.220 22

01:05:26.660 right

01:05:27.100 jeez man

01:05:27.760 yeah they're

01:05:28.360 right

01:05:28.740 I'm thinking

01:05:29.320 40

01:05:29.740 yeah

01:05:29.980 no

01:05:30.280 50

01:05:31.560 yeah

01:05:31.900 so yeah

01:05:33.260 my math was

01:05:34.000 ever so slightly

01:05:34.820 off

01:05:35.180 well you're

01:05:36.280 maybe we're

01:05:36.600 thinking of

01:05:36.900 the filibuster

01:05:37.240 maybe that's

01:05:37.680 why Republicans

01:05:38.560 didn't win

01:05:39.320 because their

01:05:40.260 math was off

01:05:41.120 as well

01:05:41.620 yeah

01:05:41.860 they're thinking

01:05:42.100 we'll get to

01:05:42.840 40

01:05:43.180 we'll be fine

01:05:43.660 it'll be good

01:05:44.480 yeah no

01:05:44.920 you gotta get

01:05:45.400 above that

01:05:45.820 and that's

01:05:46.500 gonna be big

01:05:46.880 with judges

01:05:47.300 here

01:05:47.880 I mean over

01:05:48.420 the next few

01:05:48.920 years

01:05:49.200 unfortunately

01:05:49.760 there's really

01:05:51.240 no path

01:05:51.920 for Republicans

01:05:53.040 to block

01:05:53.600 judges

01:05:53.940 even if they

01:05:54.520 got to 51

01:05:55.180 it would be

01:05:56.000 difficult

01:05:56.380 because people

01:05:57.020 like Mitt Romney

01:05:57.720 or Susan Collins

01:05:58.520 could just

01:05:58.880 approve them

01:05:59.420 or Lisa Murkowski 1.00

01:06:00.100 and will just

01:06:01.480 approve them

01:06:02.060 so you weren't

01:06:03.560 safe unless you

01:06:04.200 got to 54

01:06:04.800 55

01:06:05.520 really to

01:06:08.240 block most

01:06:09.020 of these people

01:06:09.580 but look

01:06:10.440 the bottom

01:06:11.580 and I think

01:06:12.500 people are super

01:06:13.180 negative about

01:06:13.720 the election

01:06:14.120 they should be

01:06:15.080 in a lot of

01:06:15.540 ways

01:06:15.840 it was an

01:06:16.740 underachieving

01:06:17.520 election

01:06:18.340 but the bottom

01:06:19.580 line is

01:06:20.120 Democrats are

01:06:21.340 bragging about

01:06:22.220 losing

01:06:22.720 they have

01:06:23.600 they have a

01:06:23.740 worse situation

01:06:24.760 in January

01:06:25.840 than they

01:06:26.220 do right

01:06:26.580 now

01:06:26.860 and they

01:06:28.660 are bragging

01:06:29.200 about this

01:06:29.540 as if this

01:06:29.980 was some

01:06:30.320 incredible

01:06:30.980 achievement

01:06:31.480 when their

01:06:32.400 own polling

01:06:33.160 in the

01:06:33.620 summer

01:06:33.940 showed that

01:06:35.360 they had a

01:06:35.780 really good

01:06:36.200 chance

01:06:36.460 almost a

01:06:36.920 50% chance

01:06:37.660 of winning

01:06:37.940 the house

01:06:38.380 and an

01:06:39.480 80 or 90%

01:06:40.200 chance of

01:06:40.760 winning the

01:06:41.180 Senate

01:06:41.400 and a chance

01:06:42.460 of that

01:06:43.320 looking really

01:06:44.100 good

01:06:44.360 in fact

01:06:44.640 maybe 53

01:06:45.360 54 seats

01:06:46.340 Nancy Pelosi

01:06:47.240 herself said

01:06:48.380 they were

01:06:48.600 going to

01:06:48.800 hold the

01:06:49.180 house

01:06:50.340 even the

01:06:51.600 house

01:06:51.960 she said

01:06:52.560 they were

01:06:52.740 going to

01:06:52.900 hold

01:06:53.100 they did

01:06:53.460 believe that

01:06:54.040 and they

01:06:54.720 didn't get

01:06:55.100 what they

01:06:55.320 wanted

01:06:55.520 you know

01:06:55.720 it's such

01:06:56.100 a weird

01:06:56.380 way that

01:06:56.700 we judge

01:06:57.640 elections

01:06:58.140 Pat

01:06:58.380 it's like

01:06:58.920 the only

01:06:59.520 way we

01:06:59.820 judge

01:07:00.020 elections

01:07:00.480 is what

01:07:01.640 was the

01:07:02.140 preconceived

01:07:03.260 notion

01:07:03.720 a week

01:07:04.140 beforehand

01:07:04.600 yeah

01:07:05.440 right

01:07:05.800 like

01:07:06.020 if we

01:07:06.700 look at

01:07:06.920 the

01:07:07.040 preconceived

01:07:07.540 notion

01:07:07.860 three months

01:07:08.660 beforehand

01:07:09.060 this was

01:07:09.400 a great

01:07:09.820 result

01:07:10.240 for

01:07:10.520 Republicans

01:07:11.300 because

01:07:12.280 the

01:07:12.880 thought

01:07:13.600 was

01:07:13.860 they were

01:07:14.080 going to

01:07:14.220 lose

01:07:14.340 the

01:07:14.460 House

01:07:14.620 and the

01:07:14.900 Senate

01:07:17.240 a week

01:07:17.680 before

01:07:18.020 it looked

01:07:18.300 like they

01:07:18.480 were going

01:07:18.660 to win

01:07:19.000 at least

01:07:19.980 the

01:07:20.140 House

01:07:20.500 and maybe

01:07:21.700 the Senate

01:07:22.180 although that

01:07:23.560 was still

01:07:24.420 a 50-50

01:07:25.780 type of

01:07:26.180 scenario

01:07:26.500 I think

01:07:26.980 the final

01:07:27.680 538 model

01:07:28.500 had it

01:07:28.820 at 59-41

01:07:29.980 but a week

01:07:30.860 beforehand

01:07:31.300 it was

01:07:31.680 50-50

01:07:32.260 basically

01:07:32.700 for Republicans

01:07:34.140 to win

01:07:34.520 and the

01:07:35.360 House is

01:07:35.760 disappointing

01:07:36.140 because the

01:07:36.600 margin is

01:07:37.060 so bad

01:07:37.560 I will say

01:07:38.540 the margin

01:07:39.000 look they

01:07:39.960 got control

01:07:40.500 that's what

01:07:40.800 they needed

01:07:41.060 to do

01:07:41.420 they should

01:07:42.280 have been

01:07:42.500 able to

01:07:42.780 get to

01:07:43.140 230 seats

01:07:44.500 without

01:07:44.920 really that

01:07:45.600 much

01:07:45.780 difficulty

01:07:46.220 and they

01:07:46.960 blew some

01:07:47.400 really close

01:07:48.040 seats

01:07:48.400 and what

01:07:48.720 and you

01:07:49.080 know

01:07:49.160 it's funny

01:07:49.540 because when

01:07:50.040 you look at

01:07:50.440 the actual

01:07:50.960 final vote

01:07:52.020 count

01:07:52.320 they did

01:07:53.680 pretty well

01:07:54.140 I mean you

01:07:54.780 could see a

01:07:55.420 red wave

01:07:55.920 appearing in

01:07:56.700 the popular

01:07:57.800 vote count

01:07:58.680 in the House

01:07:59.040 which by the

01:07:59.560 way we should

01:08:00.100 note means

01:08:00.720 nothing just

01:08:01.260 like the

01:08:01.520 popular vote

01:08:02.000 count in the

01:08:02.340 presidency means

01:08:02.960 nothing but

01:08:04.140 it is a

01:08:04.860 set usually

01:08:05.300 you get a

01:08:05.620 sense of how

01:08:06.100 the election

01:08:06.500 went by

01:08:07.020 looking at

01:08:07.600 the popular

01:08:08.280 vote count

01:08:08.720 in the House

01:08:09.100 and Republicans

01:08:09.940 are going to

01:08:10.300 win that

01:08:10.600 probably by

01:08:11.340 almost four

01:08:11.940 points which

01:08:12.960 is a pretty

01:08:13.400 solid margin

01:08:14.460 the issue

01:08:15.800 was that

01:08:17.300 they did

01:08:17.720 it in the

01:08:18.100 dumbest

01:08:18.480 possible way

01:08:19.280 which is

01:08:20.020 if you look

01:08:21.040 at like a

01:08:21.500 typical race 0.95

01:08:22.120 they'd be

01:08:22.420 expected to

01:08:22.860 win by 20

01:08:23.420 in a bright

01:08:25.040 red district

01:08:25.520 they won

01:08:25.920 that race

01:08:26.240 by 30

01:08:26.640 in a typical

01:08:27.820 race they were

01:08:28.380 supposed to

01:08:28.960 lose by 30

01:08:30.100 in a bright

01:08:31.060 blue district

01:08:31.680 they didn't

01:08:32.320 lose by 30

01:08:32.840 they lost by

01:08:33.460 20 or 10

01:08:34.320 but that didn't

01:08:35.740 change anything

01:08:36.420 and then in the

01:08:37.020 purple districts

01:08:37.800 where maybe it

01:08:39.340 was a toss-up

01:08:39.880 they lost by

01:08:40.460 like two

01:08:40.840 so they

01:08:42.200 wound up

01:08:42.500 losing a lot

01:08:43.100 of those

01:08:43.320 purple districts

01:08:44.180 that they had

01:08:44.720 a chance to

01:08:45.280 win or like

01:08:46.040 a race where

01:08:46.680 they were

01:08:46.940 they were an

01:08:47.520 underdog by

01:08:48.060 eight points

01:08:48.680 and wound up

01:08:49.540 losing by

01:08:50.200 five points

01:08:51.140 instead

01:08:51.520 well they

01:08:52.180 picked up

01:08:52.880 some points

01:08:53.960 but they

01:08:54.240 didn't change

01:08:54.680 the seats

01:08:55.140 and so they

01:08:56.220 didn't really

01:08:56.880 get all that

01:08:57.560 much for that

01:08:58.440 four-point

01:08:58.900 victory

01:08:59.260 they did it

01:08:59.680 in an

01:08:59.920 incredibly

01:09:00.700 inefficient

01:09:01.320 way

01:09:01.800 which is

01:09:02.920 an interesting

01:09:04.140 story like

01:09:04.660 that's the

01:09:05.040 thing with

01:09:05.380 New York

01:09:05.820 where they

01:09:06.480 wound up

01:09:06.800 you know

01:09:07.300 winning some

01:09:07.920 seats but

01:09:08.440 they wound up

01:09:08.860 doing very

01:09:09.500 well in

01:09:10.820 bright blue

01:09:11.540 districts

01:09:12.100 keeping it

01:09:12.960 really close

01:09:13.520 we saw that

01:09:14.200 with the

01:09:14.420 gubernatorial

01:09:14.940 race where

01:09:15.340 kokel which 0.76

01:09:16.120 you'd expect

01:09:16.820 a governor

01:09:17.360 in New York

01:09:19.700 to win by

01:09:20.200 20 points

01:09:20.800 only won by

01:09:21.280 five but

01:09:22.280 what does

01:09:22.460 that do

01:09:22.700 for you

01:09:23.140 nothing

01:09:23.920 not much

01:09:24.660 nope

01:09:25.060 right

01:09:25.300 and it

01:09:25.600 makes you

01:09:25.900 feel good

01:09:26.420 and it

01:09:27.060 probably helped

01:09:27.760 them win some

01:09:28.240 of the

01:09:28.400 congressional

01:09:28.740 seats

01:09:29.180 right so

01:09:30.140 it probably

01:09:30.520 did some

01:09:31.380 damage there

01:09:32.180 which that

01:09:32.760 was really

01:09:33.060 positive

01:09:33.480 did some

01:09:34.060 damage in

01:09:34.380 the state

01:09:34.680 house as

01:09:35.240 well

01:09:35.480 but at

01:09:37.060 the end

01:09:37.260 of the

01:09:37.460 day

01:09:37.800 making a

01:09:39.320 blowout

01:09:39.720 election

01:09:40.200 a close

01:09:41.020 election is

01:09:42.040 not all

01:09:42.660 that much

01:09:43.000 of an

01:09:43.180 accomplishment

01:09:43.520 you don't

01:09:43.820 get too

01:09:44.100 excited about

01:09:44.680 that

01:09:44.940 you know

01:09:46.040 what there's

01:09:46.520 something to

01:09:46.960 say for

01:09:47.700 the change

01:09:48.280 in florida

01:09:48.900 because florida

01:09:50.220 was considered

01:09:50.800 purple until

01:09:52.160 fairly recently

01:09:53.480 i mean ron

01:09:54.100 de santis won

01:09:54.680 by 0.4

01:09:55.960 percent

01:09:56.260 right

01:09:56.640 last time

01:09:57.980 yeah

01:09:58.420 and then this

01:09:59.200 time he

01:09:59.920 wins by

01:10:00.480 20 so

01:10:02.220 that's a

01:10:02.940 major change

01:10:03.760 plus they got

01:10:04.420 change

01:10:04.720 they got

01:10:05.300 republicans

01:10:05.920 all throughout

01:10:06.380 the state

01:10:07.060 and did

01:10:09.020 really well

01:10:09.860 i mean there

01:10:10.220 was a red

01:10:10.820 wave in

01:10:11.640 florida

01:10:12.120 and they

01:10:12.700 some of

01:10:13.080 that the

01:10:13.940 hispanic

01:10:14.480 support

01:10:14.860 republicans

01:10:15.640 were looking

01:10:16.000 for actually

01:10:16.760 occurred

01:10:17.040 it happened

01:10:18.220 in florida

01:10:18.600 yeah you

01:10:19.280 know republicans

01:10:19.800 were trying to

01:10:20.240 flip three 0.59

01:10:20.720 seats in

01:10:21.240 south texas

01:10:22.960 and uh

01:10:23.980 were unable

01:10:25.020 i think they

01:10:25.440 got one of

01:10:25.980 the three

01:10:26.420 but made

01:10:27.280 some real

01:10:28.000 inroads

01:10:28.380 there but

01:10:29.360 in florida

01:10:30.140 and arizona

01:10:30.660 you saw some

01:10:31.140 pretty significant

01:10:31.920 gains when it

01:10:33.140 comes to the

01:10:34.080 hispanic vote

01:10:34.720 in california

01:10:35.320 as well

01:10:35.680 the other

01:10:36.400 thing that

01:10:36.680 was great

01:10:37.040 about florida

01:10:37.700 is we used

01:10:38.780 to mock

01:10:39.220 and make fun

01:10:39.920 of them

01:10:40.240 they were

01:10:40.640 they were

01:10:41.080 the butt

01:10:41.420 of the joke

01:10:42.100 about elections

01:10:43.360 for years

01:10:44.780 i mean anybody

01:10:45.660 remember the

01:10:46.580 2000 election

01:10:47.400 i mean florida

01:10:49.020 was they were

01:10:50.220 incompetent they

01:10:51.140 didn't know what

01:10:51.580 they were doing

01:10:52.160 they had the

01:10:52.720 hanging pregnant

01:10:54.100 chads remember

01:10:55.660 all that now

01:10:56.740 they fixed that

01:10:57.560 and like the

01:10:58.200 next day when

01:10:59.680 you're supposed

01:11:00.140 to know uh

01:11:01.440 all of the

01:11:02.180 election results

01:11:03.120 they knew

01:11:03.700 the election

01:11:04.260 results so

01:11:05.240 they really

01:11:05.800 fixed a lot

01:11:06.720 isn't that

01:11:07.060 interesting

01:11:07.440 process

01:11:07.960 how does

01:11:08.520 that happen

01:11:09.020 how does

01:11:09.340 such a crazy

01:11:10.060 thing happen

01:11:10.560 mysterious concept

01:11:12.440 of how to

01:11:12.920 change you know

01:11:13.760 count some votes

01:11:14.640 the night of

01:12:09.260 right

01:12:09.600 it's still

01:12:10.120 uncalled

01:12:10.820 because of that

01:12:11.580 two weeks

01:12:12.600 later

01:12:13.260 how is that

01:12:13.860 possible

01:12:14.380 how is it

01:12:14.880 even possible

01:12:15.320 they have

01:12:15.700 up to a

01:12:16.360 month to

01:12:16.860 do it

01:12:17.100 it's in

01:12:17.380 state law

01:12:17.920 so why

01:12:19.720 why are they

01:12:20.640 going to rush

01:12:21.040 they're going to

01:12:21.320 stay there all

01:12:21.760 night when they

01:12:22.160 got a month

01:12:22.580 why would they

01:12:23.360 why would

01:12:24.100 and of course

01:12:24.460 they have

01:12:24.760 you can

01:12:25.360 votes can show

01:12:26.420 up late

01:12:27.060 as long as

01:12:27.460 it's postmarked

01:12:28.240 on time

01:12:28.640 which is

01:12:28.980 completely

01:12:29.540 ridiculous

01:12:30.120 yeah

01:12:30.600 now if you're

01:12:31.100 alaska

01:12:31.640 you know

01:12:32.620 you maybe

01:12:33.040 you forgive

01:12:33.680 it a little

01:12:34.080 bit

01:12:34.220 there's a

01:12:34.480 still a

01:12:34.760 house race

01:12:35.180 that's uncalled

01:12:35.760 in alaska

01:12:36.140 though the

01:12:36.420 democrats

01:12:36.680 going to

01:12:37.080 win it

01:12:37.440 well alaska

01:12:38.080 is the size

01:12:38.560 of asia

01:12:39.200 so it

01:12:39.840 takes a while

01:12:40.760 and there's

01:12:41.140 like four

01:12:41.660 roads

01:12:42.080 so i can

01:12:43.280 understand why

01:12:43.800 it takes a

01:12:44.180 while for

01:12:44.580 votes to

01:12:44.940 come in

01:12:45.240 there

01:12:45.440 california

01:12:47.300 excuse

01:12:48.220 votes there

01:12:48.680 by election

01:12:49.240 day

01:12:49.800 period

01:12:50.180 yeah

01:12:50.780 absolutely

01:12:51.380 should be

01:12:51.780 the case

01:12:52.220 triple eight

01:12:53.220 seven two

01:12:53.780 seven

01:13:20.120 last few

01:13:20.500 seconds there

01:13:21.140 that's true

01:13:21.940 they played

01:13:22.300 a good

01:13:23.000 eighth of a

01:13:24.120 quarter

01:13:24.440 of solid

01:13:25.640 football in

01:13:26.100 that game

01:13:26.760 winning 17

01:13:27.280 to 16

01:13:27.760 i mean that's

01:13:28.400 a sign of a

01:13:29.200 championship team

01:13:29.840 though they play

01:13:30.340 crappy and

01:13:31.080 still win

01:13:32.960 way to go i

01:13:33.460 don't know if i

01:13:33.780 could take two

01:13:34.340 super bowl wins

01:13:34.920 in the same

01:13:35.280 year or same

01:13:36.480 same lifetime i

01:14:35.020 say this pat

01:14:35.560 our football is

01:14:38.240 still a lot better

01:14:38.800 than the world's

01:14:39.400 football they had

01:14:40.480 the world cup is

01:14:41.900 going on i guess

01:14:42.580 in cutter and

01:14:43.860 they were like hey

01:14:44.520 two days before

01:14:45.220 they're like hey

01:14:45.840 no beer at the

01:14:47.000 stadium and

01:14:48.120 everyone's like

01:14:48.880 wait a minute

01:14:49.300 what first of

01:14:50.380 all budweiser's

01:14:51.140 been supporting this

01:14:51.860 event for like a

01:14:52.500 hundred years it's

01:14:53.800 like they're the

01:14:54.140 biggest sponsor and

01:14:55.640 secondly like how

01:14:56.600 can you watch

01:14:57.180 soccer without

01:14:57.920 alcohol it's

01:14:59.100 unwatchable even if

01:15:00.580 you're hammered

01:15:01.160 how imagine going

01:15:02.320 to a soccer match

01:15:03.240 sober no one's

01:15:04.380 ever seen a soccer

01:15:05.500 match sober before

01:15:06.600 it's never occurred

01:15:09.200 never happened i'm

01:15:10.280 talking even like

01:15:11.120 little league soccer

01:15:12.240 even if your kid is

01:15:13.460 playing you know it

01:15:14.300 you're hammered in

01:15:15.000 the stands just to

01:15:17.020 try to find some

01:15:17.980 level of enjoyment of

01:15:19.140 this terrible kicking

01:15:20.120 sport and it's so

01:15:23.040 frustrating i've tried

01:15:24.200 to watch a little

01:15:24.880 soccer because people

01:15:25.840 just or you gotta

01:15:26.740 watch it in order to

01:15:28.100 appreciate it pat that's

01:15:30.360 the only thing you have

01:15:31.240 to watch it to

01:15:32.040 appreciate so i've

01:15:33.220 tried to watch a

01:15:34.380 couple of soccer

01:15:34.980 matches i did not 0.65

01:15:36.340 appreciate it it

01:15:37.300 frustrated the heck

01:15:38.420 out of me you kick

01:15:39.420 the ball you kick it

01:15:41.260 back then you kick it

01:15:42.700 really far down the

01:15:43.720 field then somebody

01:15:44.420 else kicks it way far

01:15:45.360 back yeah what about

01:15:47.280 the subtleties of a

01:15:48.540 game yeah the

01:15:49.980 subtleties of the game

01:15:50.860 don't lead to goals

01:15:52.280 like is it yes it's

01:15:54.160 interesting to see a

01:15:55.300 play broken down that

01:15:56.440 leads to something

01:15:58.100 right but like the

01:15:59.340 fact that the ball went

01:16:00.400 from the middle of the

01:16:01.540 field to slightly one

01:16:02.780 side of the field or the

01:16:03.600 other not it's a

01:16:04.580 subtlety that's not

01:16:05.480 interesting not exciting

01:16:07.020 by the way us plays

01:16:09.220 uh wales today at one

01:16:11.260 o'clock eastern time i

01:16:12.860 believe oh wow i'm

01:20:19.400 of course columbine um you had a shooting at colorado springs last year and another one this year

01:20:25.960 the suspect uh in the shooting at club q was identified um i don't even say his name

01:20:33.180 um but he was identified by police they don't they don't necessarily have a motive

01:20:38.760 yet apparently he's not talking to police

01:20:41.740 um

01:20:43.880 huh wonder if that'll continue that's interesting

01:20:47.760 uh after entering the nightclub though he immediately opened fire before at least

01:20:53.020 at least two people inside the club confronted and fought him

01:20:57.800 i mean that's really something a couple of heroes here yeah and a couple of people who did this

01:21:03.660 you know without being armed right and it sort of puts in the focus of how horrible the duvalde

01:21:10.640 situation was when you had right actual law enforcement heavily are doing nothing doing nothing

01:21:16.440 really really makes the that situation seem even more frustrating when you do see that this is the way

01:21:22.440 a lot of times it does stop obviously we have seen many many shootings be stopped by

01:21:27.320 citizens with weapons themselves which has been been something that the media doesn't usually like

01:21:34.520 to talk about but we also have seen it just people rushing rushing a shooter and right some of them

01:21:40.000 you know paying lost their lives yeah doing that but they've been able to stop it as well

01:21:44.260 but these uh these people uh accosted him one of them took a handgun from him and hit him in the head

01:21:52.820 with it and that stopped the shooting yeah and they held him down until i guess police showed up

01:21:58.400 which police i guess got there pretty quickly too uh so just uh a great effort from two people just

01:22:07.160 happened to be at the club as far as we know yeah uh now of course the media is trying to make this

01:22:12.180 into um you know this was this is basically the conservative ideology in action oh geez which it

01:22:18.300 is not um we might want to note that conservative uh individuals we say law and order a lot murder

01:22:25.500 would fall outside of that particular paradigm seems that way you know usually you'd say murder

01:22:31.460 bad you know it was mentioned it actually in a very important book uh that took many conservatives

01:22:36.380 oh really called the bible uh and yeah they specifically say i don't know much about it

01:22:42.320 yeah just it's an old book but it it's in there it says don't don't murder really it says like you

01:22:48.840 shouldn't do it i think is and a lot of conservatives you think follow that you know the word

01:22:52.880 you ever hear the word shout i have says thou shalt not not not murder okay so don't do that don't

01:23:01.220 and everyone knows not to do it it's not part of the conservative ideology even if you don't

01:23:05.100 necessarily agree with whatever was going on in the club if you go and murder people at the club

01:23:10.140 you are way way way worse than anything that's ever happened in any club right you are uh the lowest

01:23:19.220 form of human being possible committing the worst crime you can commit and here's the thing

01:23:24.640 one Wednesday once you go through a trial i hope the ending is you are executed that's what i hope

01:23:30.320 happens if you happen to be the person who goes in and does something like this in a club no matter

01:23:34.060 what they're doing in the club you are an enemy to all humanity my guess is 99.999 percent of all

01:23:41.380 conservatives would agree with that yes i think so uh it's interesting because police are trying to

01:23:46.380 decide whether this was a hate crime uh as if you know it's a strange concept to me like other

01:23:52.960 shootings are done with a lot of love yeah very love and care how many love and tender care yeah uh

01:23:58.660 they're not hate that's has nothing to do with it uh i'm shooting out of love here in in this

01:24:03.720 particular shooting and look it is the media every single time there's a mass shooting tries to say

01:24:10.660 it's conservatives until the facts come out and that's disproved like they just try to grab the

01:24:14.580 news headlines they do it every single time no matter what the cause is yes they always do the

01:24:18.740 same thing and i think like when you see a situation like this where a a lgbtqqia2 plus

01:24:25.860 uh club is is targeted like you know a lot of people are gonna that's not that's gonna be a lot

01:24:32.420 of people in the middle even some conservatives gonna be like god i hope this isn't someone

01:24:35.280 who thinks drag shows for children are bad and is trying to make some statement it's understandable to 0.99

01:24:42.080 think about that though if you do remember the pulse nightclub shooting which was universally

01:24:47.060 promoted as a conservative trying to kill gay people what it was not yeah what i'm not being

01:24:51.440 that case after all right after all of uh the evidence came out that was actually not what

01:24:56.140 happened at the pulse nightclub shooting so we look we don't know where this is going to go

01:25:01.560 obviously the the sensible thing to do is to wait and understand the details of the case before you

01:25:08.420 form of course the left is not going to do that they're not going to do that they only do that

01:25:12.660 they only do that in cases like you know uh pelosi right where they they don't know we don't know

01:25:18.080 what's going on they're like you gotta wait till all the details come out you gotta wait you gotta

01:25:20.660 wait you gotta wait because this could be bad for us well i prefer to wait for both like i'm not

01:25:24.380 guessing at what was going on at pelosi's house i want to know the information i want to know what

01:25:29.860 the investigation shows i want to know what the video shows and the same thing here i want to i do want

01:25:34.680 to know what this person's motivation is i will never say his name because i don't want

01:25:37.820 someone to get to to chase the glory in this way but these things do happen and whatever the

01:25:45.040 motivation is you know i know i know of no conservative who would do anything but shun

01:25:51.080 this type of activity and want it punished to the fullest extent of the law and apparently the guy's

01:25:56.540 just crazy he held his his mother hostage last year with some kind of bomb threat and there was a

01:26:05.080 standoff with police last year and so the guy's obviously just nuts was that a hate crime too or

01:26:12.940 was that done with love i don't know i don't know mom so that was a loving okay why why let me ask

01:26:19.200 you this pat why why why why was this person not in jail not in jail yeah it's a good question i feel

01:26:27.180 like when it like again i keep coming back to and i use you often as the example when i think this

01:26:31.920 of this but like you drive 27 miles an hour in a 25 mile an hour zone and you get pulled over for

01:26:38.060 right right yes and you get you never get off they never say yeah a little written warning for you

01:26:43.880 virtually every time every time they give you a ticket i feel like if i did something like

01:26:49.700 got in a standoff with police over a bomb threat i would be in jail for a really long time like i i would

01:26:57.600 expect to be in jail yeah for a long time yeah it seems like everyone else who does this just just

01:27:03.300 out oh he's out he can go yeah but you know go buy a gun yep um you know and it's not this is not a

01:27:10.140 criticism of of our second amendment rights which are incredibly important but like we do have

01:27:13.960 limitations on them when you commit felonies usually like right you don't allow that anymore

01:27:18.840 but this guy i don't know we don't even know if this guy bought a gun or if it was legal or what

01:27:22.300 but like why was he outside and able to do anything why was he able to enter a club yeah

01:27:28.440 seems like a pretty egregious crime when you're holding your mother hostage yeah and threatening

01:27:33.000 her with some kind of bomb material yeah and it seems serious and like while the republicans are

01:27:38.220 going out of their way and i think this is smart to say the hunter biden investigation well that's

01:27:42.900 that's about joe biden and his financial crimes and they're serious and i think that's a smart focus

01:27:47.200 for them to to be on but it's like i think to myself like let's just say i decided to have kind

01:27:53.260 of a crazy weekend and i just lined up prostitute after prostitute and did drug after drug off of

01:27:59.600 their naked bellies and decided to film myself on my cell phone camera naked most of the time naked 0.67

01:28:05.980 most of the time doing drugs uh hook it up with hookers and then i decided you know what i'm also

01:28:12.980 going to do i'm going to record that on my phone i'm going to store it on my laptop they're going to

01:28:17.180 drop my laptop off at a computer repair shop and then leave it there forever leave it there

01:28:21.880 forever so it gets leaked to the press okay the fbi has a copy of it i feel like i might get in

01:28:27.060 trouble for such things i know that's not the big story when it comes to hunter biden but i feel as

01:28:33.900 if i myself might run into a little legal trouble if i did all that stuff and also by the way one of

01:28:42.660 the women i was hooking up with i impregnated and then just left them so they had to have the 1.00

01:28:46.940 doesn't seem to be any consequences for this guy for crimes no right like i understand that like

01:28:53.260 someone hooking up with a hooker or doing drugs is not as big a deal as billions of dollars being

01:28:59.800 shuttled between joe biden and his i understand those are bigger issues but like why aren't there

01:29:06.220 consequences why what like some of this stuff happened in red states it's not like it was all

01:29:13.900 bright blue states why aren't there consequences for like the boring stuff that hunter biden was

01:29:19.300 doing like hookers and and and and blow and all the other things he was doing like i feel like i

01:29:25.140 would get in trouble for it do you think you just get away do people we should have asked jeffy when

01:29:29.880 he was in here do people get away with that like if you're if you are hooking up with hookers you're 0.92

01:29:36.400 doing drugs you're committing financial fraud you've got gun crimes you're lying on federal forms

01:29:43.960 right to acquire a firearm do people just routinely get away with that i don't think so i feel like i

01:29:51.300 would definitely get in trouble i'm pretty sure you would and so would i but i guess if you're a

01:29:56.840 president's son that gives you maybe that's is that it yeah i guess so is he just special in some

01:30:01.960 way he's special because you know they talk about this all the time when they talk about uh you know

01:30:06.060 well we need to we need to keep there's uh our prisons are there's a higher proportion of uh of 0.88

01:30:13.240 african americans in prison and we need to make sure that we we we have to stop that this is the prison 0.99

01:30:19.040 industrial complex you know this left-wing argument that comes all the time what they leave out of that

01:30:23.480 argument is a large reason why there is a a a a problem with this is because you're enforcing the

01:30:34.380 gun control laws liberals passed when when you say anyone that does you know doesn't go through all

01:30:41.340 the perfect processes uh for uh for gun crime when they don't go through that process correctly

01:30:48.500 a lot of times what you're doing is just scooping up 18 year olds in cities who are want to be kind

01:30:56.020 of fake gangbangers and probably are never going to use the gun but went and got a gun in some illicit

01:31:00.640 way and then they wind up in prison these are all left-wing laws that wind up gun control scooping up

01:31:07.960 african americans and putting them in prison for long periods of time because the left has decided

01:31:13.180 that's what they're going to do with these laws and you know hunter biden doesn't get

01:31:17.760 punished for them i mean i understand why someone who's saying wait a minute why is hunter biden

01:31:22.880 getting away with this and my teenage son who got messed up i mean mixed up with the wrong crowd for

01:31:27.320 a couple months and got caught with a gun oh it's a legitimate point it's a legit point it is it is a

01:31:33.020 legit point that many on the left have it's a it's a different uh it's a different society for those of

01:31:40.480 us who are not among the elite it's sad but apparently true uh triple eight seven two seven

01:31:47.040 beck more coming up

01:31:48.700 uh you know the shooting that uh doesn't seem to be getting any attention is what happened at the

01:32:04.440 university of virginia where uh three black football players were shot and killed what was five injured

01:32:11.620 or something to that effect um and the media is not interested in that one at all they just don't

01:32:18.040 care uh it's just another black on black crime and i guess you just ignore that it's unbelievable

01:32:25.360 really unbelievable um and they're they're not even they're not even talking about the gun used or

01:32:32.560 whether there should be gun control because of this or i i just don't hear virtually anything about it

01:32:39.800 it's really amazing it really is and these things come and go they come and go as they as they do because

01:32:48.020 of how they serve the left-wing cause if they serve the left-wing cause they stay around for a very long

01:32:53.160 time if they do not they go away almost immediately that is absolutely the state of our media right

01:32:58.440 now if uh i mean like the most egregious example of all time i believe pat tell me if you if you

01:33:05.680 think there's a better one the most egregious example of all time is the 2017 baseball shooting

01:33:10.940 where a bernie sanders campaign volunteer took a you know i think it was an ar-15 i don't remember

01:33:17.680 but took a long rifle yeah to uh to a baseball field to murder 10 percent of elected republicans

01:33:26.260 in washington dc obviously he didn't succeed but he certainly tried he was shooting almost 10 percent

01:33:31.560 of them yes they were that's what he was trying to do kill every single player yeah on the field and

01:33:35.620 again almost killed uh scalise scalise he survived they all survived thankfully but you know that

01:33:41.940 and that story came and went in an incredible think about this i mean like we still like look

01:33:48.460 there are terrible things that have happened in our history the gabby giffords thing is one of them 1.00

01:33:53.520 it was a terrible terrible tragedy was not done by a right winger it was done by a man an insane 0.53

01:33:57.720 person who believed gabby giffords had some effort some world effort against grammar or something it

01:34:03.420 was something to do with grammar it's a weird conspiracy theory about very bizarre very strange

01:34:08.300 had nothing to do with right wing nothing to do with it ideology that thing is still out there i

01:34:13.480 mean look there's a real strong argument that a big portion of the reason why mark kelly is going to be

01:34:17.620 a senator and not blake masters is because there's a lot of built-in sympathy for this family who went

01:34:21.820 through a real tragedy yeah but it had nothing that story is still talked about constantly they're doing

01:34:29.240 another series with her about this now jeez where you know steve scalise never had anything like this and

01:34:37.540 and it was this was a and they tried to even convince people it wasn't a politically motivated

01:34:41.640 shooting and they tried to do everything they could to convince people specifically asked for

01:34:47.640 the republicans where are the republicans where are they and went there with the purpose with the

01:34:53.100 intent of shooting them and that's not politically motivated right where we think of the nancy pelosi

01:34:59.480 thing the nancy pelosi thing was well let's just say it's absolutely as described on the surface

01:35:04.500 right a person who let's just say we don't even know this but really didn't like nancy pelosi for

01:35:09.900 political reasons broke in wanted to hold pelosi hostage let's just say it was the left-wing dream

01:35:16.540 of this scenario because this is what they would want to happen even if that was true it's nowhere near

01:35:24.000 the sort of story impact as trying to murder 25 republicans at the same time right right all while

01:35:33.620 they're on the baseball field in a point in a pre-planned attack by somebody it's nowhere near

01:35:38.460 that story it's bad but it's not that story you know it's you know it's it's similar to the

01:35:44.660 kavanaugh uh threat that went on and nobody talks about that nobody cares today they didn't even talk

01:35:52.000 about it on that weekend's sunday shows the we it brett kavanaugh was almost murdered

01:35:59.780 it's a person was arrested for attempted murder of a sitting supreme court justice

01:36:06.800 and that weekend it was not brought up on any of the sunday shows

01:36:13.700 that's amazing that's amazing absolutely incredible it's like i you don't want to keep fighting

01:36:21.240 the same battles you don't want to keep fighting and saying hey the double standard exists i swear

01:36:26.860 it does this is a you know scientific consensus has science has been settled on this one pat you

01:36:33.040 pretty much yeah it's it's it's despicable i mean to the point where laurie lightfoot who you might

01:36:38.240 recognize as the mayor of chicago talking about the shooting in colorado springs and she made the

01:36:46.200 point that uh she's sick of this stuff that's not the word she used but um she claims to be sick and 0.99

01:36:55.920 tired of people being shot wow why don't you do something about your own town then uh and it was

01:37:06.000 obviously mentioned on twitter multiple times um hey how come you're not sick of this stuff in

01:37:12.060 chicago where 615 people have been murdered this year alone 615 and it's about 50 to 60 to 70 shot

01:37:25.240 every single weekend uh so you might i don't know they're very selective about what they're sick of

01:37:34.720 and what they're not sick of and yeah that's very selective that's really pathetic i mean it's like

01:37:39.640 does is do any of your advisors say laurie laurie come on come on not done no no you can't

01:37:45.500 it's hard to believe they don't right you know i mean come on i understand you got to do this thing

01:37:50.180 where we all tweet about the story in the news today but like come on you can't possibly think

01:37:54.660 it's appropriate for you to talk about other people having murder problems we are literally

01:38:01.060 known as the murder capital of the world you can't i mean i just doesn't work you just can't do that

01:38:08.340 it really doesn't the glenn back program

01:38:15.940 pat and stew for glenn uh joe biden turned 80 yesterday wow that's great great accomplishment

01:38:31.640 80. oldest president of course in the history of the country uh by a lot um they used to complain

01:38:40.360 because ronald reagan was 77 at the end of his presidency uh they were all freaked out about that

01:38:48.640 this guy's 80 yeah oh and it's fine the new york times is talking about how

01:38:55.400 oh yeah he's still according to experts in aging he still has a lot going in his favor

01:39:03.980 they don't say what but but that he has a lot going for himself a lot going in his favor yeah

01:39:12.680 yeah i mean i guess he probably has excellent doctors around him well maybe we're paying for

01:39:17.100 incredibly solid health care for him which is good sure he can still walk sometimes sort of sort of

01:39:24.060 kind of shuffles around but he's still mobile so i guess he's got that he can shake hands with the

01:39:29.940 air uh when he has no idea where he's going or where to turn or how to get off the stage he does

01:39:36.860 that a lot which is cool and i will say like you know i think it's pretty easy to say okay well 80

01:39:42.460 years old it's too old to be president a lot of people are making that argument which you know i'm

01:39:46.400 it's something to talk about but not everybody is like joe biden and completely out of it i mean

01:39:51.220 trump is almost 80 yeah uh you know and i think but in much better shape much i mean he's not

01:39:58.280 exactly in the best physical shape of the world but no but mentally mentally he's much more on top

01:40:03.120 of it yeah and but i mean i won't even use him as an example we talked to alan dershowitz last week

01:40:09.080 now alan dershowitz we should point out this got this got lost because it came out either the day

01:40:13.660 before or the day after the election i can't remember but the central accuser

01:40:17.840 in the entire jeffrey epstein saga virginia juffray uh-huh basically released a statement

01:40:28.580 saying i might have misidentified alan dershowitz yeah oops uh-oh oh okay that's a little accusing

01:40:37.540 him for years accusing him for years he was really magnanimous about it though right he was he was

01:40:43.320 because i think he sees it as a bigger story yeah um than just himself but i mean i i he he was

01:40:50.800 basically canceled for this you know he part and i think it was also partially because he had

01:40:55.160 occasionally defended donald trump which people did not like on the left but he they took the

01:41:00.360 opportunity to take these accusations seriously and run him out of all sorts of institutions he had

01:41:06.540 been part of for decades and uh does he get his reputation back i don't i don't know i think because

01:41:12.420 i i was in election hell and completely missed the story i didn't even see it and so if we if we

01:41:18.960 didn't see it and where we're watching the news every day i gotta imagine the average person did not

01:41:23.520 see it but the reason i bring dershowitz up is we had him on the air the other day he went through

01:41:27.320 this entire saga again talked about all sorts of constitutional issues as it relates to the

01:41:32.100 president these ongoing investigations blah blah blah blah he's 84 and like i wouldn't agree with

01:41:37.960 alan dershowitz on policy wow right like he would not be but he is absolutely uh mentally agile enough

01:41:45.880 to be president of the united states now i would he would pass all sorts of liberal things i wouldn't

01:41:50.440 want but he's absolutely like i mean the man talks circles around pretty much everybody in the world

01:41:55.820 yeah and he's 84 years old so it doesn't have to be this way it just is this way with joe biden

01:42:01.100 right he's 80 years old and he he has the mental acuity acuity of 180 year old and that's a problem

01:42:08.440 yep you know i you wonder how these things how bad things happen i mean the guy is look he's on he's on

01:42:15.720 the edge here he does not you know is it possible possible that they came to him and said hey you did

01:42:25.740 pass a bill for the student loan to uh relief they signed it remember and he said oh yeah and then

01:42:31.900 went out in front of the american people were like we signed a bill to resume to stop uh student loans

01:42:36.520 from needing to be paid and it passed by a couple of votes like is that possible that they just lied

01:42:42.480 to him and said hey joe you remember you signed that bill i doubt it or is he just lying i think he's

01:42:48.680 just lying i i think the more likely makes things up yeah it's not the scare that's the best outcome

01:42:53.660 yeah the the thing we can all root for is our president is lying to us that's the best possible

01:42:58.640 answer for some of the stuff he's just a bad politician lying to us all the time knowing that

01:43:04.820 i mean he knows i mean everybody knows that the student loan relief program was completely

01:43:12.340 unconstitutional every single person in the media every single person in washington they all know

01:43:20.500 with 100 certainty that this is an unconstitutional plan they all know it they did it to try to buy

01:43:27.520 some votes before the primaries and they all know that if it gets in front of the courts it will be

01:43:32.520 destroyed because it obviously obviously is not the way you're supposed to pass a law if it was

01:43:38.920 if it were why on earth did donald trump do any of the things he tried to pass why did he try to

01:43:44.020 repeal obamacare why didn't he just say yeah yeah you don't have to you don't have to you don't have

01:43:47.920 to do it anymore why didn't they just do that well they had to go through congress to try to do it and

01:43:52.840 it failed right uh and they were unable to do it why why did they do these things this way well

01:43:59.400 they followed the rules largely sometimes they didn't and they got they got shot down in the courts and

01:44:05.660 they should have been shot down in the courts but like we all know that you can't just pass a

01:44:10.640 one trillion dollar bill without asking anybody like what what kind of you can't just say one day

01:44:18.460 we're just going to spend a trillion dollars obviously that has to go through congress everybody

01:44:22.900 knows that why did the biden administration try to push for a stimulus package or try to push for

01:44:29.920 obamacare why didn't they just do it because they couldn't do it everyone knew they couldn't do it 0.91

01:44:34.760 and and lee this it was the same thing that happened with daca and many other things they

01:44:40.260 just decided to do it anyway and then eventually got shot down on the courts at least giant chunks

01:44:43.960 of it did they just they they don't care it's like it's like one of their main donors um sbf or

01:44:51.840 whatever his name is sam bankman freed who supposedly had 16.5 billion dollars even more than that at one

01:45:00.060 point i think they said he was worth 30 billion and then he went down to 16.5 billion then he lost

01:45:04.740 99 of his wealth from there on 96 of his wealth whatever it was uh and i mean i think a lot of

01:45:13.880 people probably knew ftx was just a paper tiger too uh you know the overseer of enron the guy who

01:45:22.900 oversaw the enron process the collapse said the collapse said he's never seen anything like this

01:45:30.980 yeah this is this is incredible he says i have 40 years over 40 years of legal and restructuring

01:45:36.000 experience i've been the chief restructuring officer and or chief executive officer in several

01:45:40.120 of the largest corporate failures in history including enron never in my career have i seen

01:45:45.400 such a complete failure of corporate controls and such a complete absence of trustworthy financial

01:45:51.140 information as occurred here that's amazing goes on to talk about how um uh that they valued the

01:45:57.800 cryptocurrency now this is incredible because they claimed 5.5 billion dollars they were holding

01:46:03.000 in cryptocurrency so that was what their claim was 5.5 billion dollars okay the actual number

01:46:08.340 659 000 oh my gosh how on wow on earth i had not heard that figure yet how on earth um

01:46:18.940 wow they say uh the ftx group did not maintain centralized control of its cash cash management

01:46:28.720 procedural failures included the absence of an accurate list of bank accounts can you imagine

01:46:35.740 this company was running they didn't even know what their bank accounts were wow um goes on to talk

01:46:42.300 about how uh you know in the bahamas ftx group funds were used to purchase homes and other personal

01:46:49.560 items for employees and advisors uh they didn't include um they did not include uh appropriate books

01:46:57.920 and records security controls are you supposed to should you do that i think you should i think

01:47:03.080 they they ask you that's weird no it might be a little bit too much it's too much yeah that's too much

01:47:07.160 i don't want to uh they they talk about how um they were transferring large amounts right before

01:47:14.960 all this came out which is always a big red flag my i think my favorite example though is this pat

01:47:19.520 you know you gotta get a good you gotta get a good accounting firm you know you can't you're running

01:47:23.340 a big multi-billion dollar company you gotta have a good accounting firm right you know the oh yeah

01:47:26.740 the blue chip ones yeah um now they did have an accounting firm um prager metis

01:47:33.300 it was a firm this is this is a quote from the the document from the new ceo the guy who

01:47:39.000 unwound enron uh prager metis a firm with which i was not familiar which is a bad sign if the guy

01:47:46.960 who's like in charge of all these things has never heard of your accounting firm i was not familiar

01:47:51.180 with and whose website indicates that they are quote the first ever cpa firm to officially open its

01:47:57.820 metaverse headquarters in the metaverse platform decentraland

01:48:02.500 they were a metaverse accounting company oh my gosh

01:48:09.280 so it didn't really exist it didn't exist in the real world but i guess they were bragging about

01:48:16.120 being in the metaverse and like you know you let's pick the one in the metaverse man let's do that

01:48:21.800 they you know they there's a i saw an interview with uh one of the i talked to the the first

01:48:28.220 uh mainstream reporter ever assigned full-time to crypto this lady named laura shin she was a 1.00

01:48:33.800 she wrote a really good book about the founding of ethereum she has a really uh you know deep history

01:48:38.480 she's talked to all these people she talked to caroline ellison the the girlfriend yeah who's 0.95

01:48:43.320 running alameda she's she knows all these people has talked to them all and she said like they did

01:48:47.980 they spoke a good game i mean they talked a good game but you you go back and you looked at

01:48:51.780 some of their quotes now where they just look completely insane why would anyone entrust money

01:48:56.520 with these people she talked to her enron executives talked a good game yeah and they did they did talk

01:49:03.920 a good game in fact they actually i mean it's i think a different story in that enron was a was a

01:49:09.360 story of people who got over their skis but were very very intelligent smart people who were very

01:49:16.660 accomplished and did a lot of amazing things in their lives this guy's like not he's not in that

01:49:20.920 category he's just i mean it seems like for all the things you could say about enron and i read the

01:49:26.060 the book back in the day that the smartest guys in the room which the documentary were but yeah and

01:49:32.660 that was the accusation the documentary was called smartest guys in the room and the documentary gives

01:49:37.640 this like oh it was george bush it's like a totally different story than the book but you read the book

01:49:43.200 and you realize there definitely were people in enron who bent the rules and tried to take advantage of it

01:49:50.080 and tried to hide things there were also a lot of people who were just really good and and were

01:49:55.500 doing really good things and were really smart and really accomplished and you know maybe weren't

01:50:00.380 completely aware of all the things going on in the company at the time yeah with ftx i'm sure that

01:50:06.020 situation exists at some level but the people at the top seem to be very very involved in this

01:50:10.440 to the point of like there's inner there's an interview i had recently seen with some uh capital

01:50:15.640 advisor guy who talked to sam bankman freed at the beginning of the ftx thing when they were still

01:50:20.160 forming it and they were saying that like they would start this is when i think before ftx even

01:50:24.880 existed it was like the alameda days and they were talking about how at the end of the day they try to

01:50:31.100 make the book square up but sometimes it doesn't like they can't make it square up so they just go on

01:50:34.940 to the next day like there's a hundred thousand dollar gap which at that point was a lot of money for

01:50:39.340 them and yeah we couldn't make it work so we just went on to the next day and kind of just

01:50:42.900 couldn't we couldn't really figure out what happened because they were so that's kind of

01:50:47.120 important his brilliance quote-unquote was the fact that he didn't care about he'd show up to

01:50:51.700 meetings and shorts and messy hair there's real stories of major executives coming in i've never

01:50:57.300 seen him with well-kept hair no no that was his shtick yeah right yeah i'm too smart i don't have to

01:51:02.780 care i'm not part of your corporate world like these people would come in to invest billions of

01:51:07.640 dollars and he would fall asleep on a beanbag chair outside the office and they would let all

01:51:14.460 these executives in walk right past him asleep in the beanbag off a chair shuttle them into the

01:51:20.940 office make them sit there for 20 minutes while he was sleeping through the window they could see

01:51:24.320 him sleeping in a beanbag chair and then he'd like wake up and stumble in and just start and like this

01:51:29.440 was part of his magic he was so smart he didn't care about your conventional thinking pat oh man that's

01:51:36.420 not who he was no he was above all that he was so smart in one famously recorded um conference call

01:51:42.800 he made a presentation to uh to investors while playing video games at the same time like so the

01:51:50.400 entire time they knew he was playing video games he was like you know not looking at the scam he's

01:51:54.540 looking at the playing the games but like talking at the same time and made a presentation though this

01:51:58.540 this look he had played video games and still make a presentation we must give him a billion dollars

01:52:03.340 these idiots who you know honestly deserve it but the average customers don't they got screwed 0.76

01:52:09.400 and they were believed it was real largely because of the institutional investors who put money into

01:52:14.680 it the big super bowl commercials like i don't know like i have a belief like that like you see

01:52:19.180 someone they've invested all this money in a super bowl commercial you think there's something

01:52:22.240 there apparently there wasn't wow 888-727-BECK more patents do for glenn coming up

01:52:28.940 okay uh patent stew for glenn on the glenbeck program we were just talking about sbf uh sam bankman

01:52:40.400 freed uh because he was quite a genius so a wonder kid big democratic donor too we haven't even included

01:52:47.060 that donor yeah yeah yeah 40 mil he was gonna he was going to second only to george soros george soros

01:52:53.080 was one sam bankran freed two and he was promising a billion dollars if donald trump was the nominee to

01:52:59.300 fight against him he's going to donate a billion dollars to democratic causes thinking that's probably

01:53:03.440 not going to happen now yeah that's why they're that's why the left is really mad at him

01:53:06.940 they thought they had a billion dollars in their pocket but no now they don't have nothing

01:53:10.940 that'll have to be george soros now or you know uh what's his face warren buffett warren fat piece

01:53:19.220 of crap buffett maybe he'll come forward with a billion dollars if trump runs i don't know but

01:53:25.480 it's not going to be sam bankman freed because he doesn't have it i'm pretty sure pretty sure

01:53:31.160 they have not yet indicted him they haven't even charged him with anything yet have they

01:53:34.760 not yet but they i mean i he's in big trouble i mean yeah it takes a while to unwind this stuff

01:53:40.640 and understand what's going on right i mean so they don't charge them necessarily immediately

01:53:44.240 but i don't see how he avoids this he doesn't really think he's done anything like criminal

01:53:48.420 though does he yeah he's made some mistakes yeah he basically said you know i blew it i didn't

01:53:52.820 realize i was too focused on other things didn't realize yeah yeah you know how much risk we had

01:53:57.620 i mean he's trying to worm himself out of it but look this is i don't think it's going to happen

01:54:02.020 really yeah i think he's even with democrat help but even with democrat help i think he's still

01:54:05.620 going to get charged all right back here tomorrow see you then this is the glenn back program
