00:00:30.000 I want to talk to you a little bit about Ammo Squared.
00:00:32.020 Ammo is not something that you, you know, you just have.
00:00:36.420 It is something you need to stay on top of.
00:00:39.740 Life gets busy. Prices go up. Stores run dry.
00:00:42.720 Before you know it, your stockpile isn't a stockpile anymore.
00:00:45.220 It's just half an empty box in the closet.
00:00:48.580 That's where Ammo Squared changes the game for you.
00:00:51.060 You pick the calibers you want, and they've got over 70 to choose from.

00:03:22.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:25.540 Well, hello, America.
00:03:30.140 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:31.760 It is Tuesday, and we've got a lot to cover today.
00:03:36.120 We're going to take you into Coachella, Bernie Sanders.
00:03:40.040 I didn't get a chance to talk about that.
00:03:42.140 Women in Space today.
00:03:44.600 The Great Remake and how it is a little like the Nixon shock.
00:03:50.960 We'll get into that and so much more and what China is doing all in 60 seconds.
00:03:56.680 First, let me tell you about the burnout launcher.
00:03:58.580 It happened so quickly.
00:03:59.820 One minute, everything was fine.
00:04:01.420 And the next, you don't want to start a story like that.
00:04:05.320 Every day, if you happen to be looking, you'll see the headlines in the news reminding you how quickly everything can change.
00:04:11.060 It's just like that.
00:04:11.940 Things like violence don't announce themselves, you know, from the next till over.
00:04:16.400 They rarely give you any time to prepare, which is why it's important to be prepared ahead of time.
00:04:21.900 That's why I have the Berna launcher, and it's why I have one for each family member.
00:04:26.820 I believe in the Second Amendment.
00:04:28.840 But sometimes a firearm is not the right answer.
00:04:32.180 Maybe you're in California, you can't have a firearm.
00:04:34.500 Maybe you're in New York, can't have one.
00:04:36.080 Maybe, you know what, maybe you're a teacher in a school where you can't have a firearm.
00:04:40.860 I don't know why these aren't in all of the schools all across America.
00:04:44.240 Berna looks and feels like a gun, but it fires Connecticut pepper rounds from a CO2 cartridge.
00:04:49.820 It'll put a full-grown man dead in his tracks for at least 40 minutes, and that's enough time for police to come.
00:04:57.900 Do not leave your family safety up to chance.
00:05:00.400 Visit Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.
00:05:03.300 10% off your purchase, Berna dot com slash Glenn.
00:05:08.760 All right, let me take you on a little ride through history here.
00:05:13.220 Through the smoky rooms of the 1970s, actually 1971, into what we're experiencing today in the last few weeks with the markets.
00:05:24.200 It is a story of money and power and an idea to pull something off rare, something audacious, to remake the global trade and financial system.
00:05:36.720 That's what we're doing today, but we've done this once before because it's not a new story.
00:05:41.720 It's one that we've almost forgotten, and we can't forget this one because this is how things went wrong, how everything in America is broken, and maybe, just maybe, what we're doing now might fix it.
00:05:55.700 Let me start in August.
00:05:59.100 It's August 15th, 1971.
00:06:01.720 Did you know that France sent warships over to New York?
00:06:04.840 We had French warships.
00:06:07.200 I don't even know what those look like.
00:06:09.620 A little tugboat with, like, a pea shooter on it.
00:06:12.020 I'm not sure.
00:06:12.640 But French warships were in the harbor of New York demanding their gold back because of what Nixon did when he stepped to the microphone.
00:06:23.560 He said on April 15th, he announced what would be known later as the Nixon shock.
00:06:32.540 No more gold backing of the dollar.
00:06:34.720 10% tariff on all imports and wage price control to tame inflation.
00:06:40.780 Some call it a shock.
00:06:42.020 I think that's an insane understatement.
00:06:45.800 What he did was he broke the Bretton Woods system, that grand agreement that happened right after World War II, tying our dollars to gold and the stability, all nations' stability to gold and the U.S. dollar, and that crumbled overnight.
00:07:02.100 The dollar all of a sudden was free, free, and with it, it was free to change the world and everybody along with it.
00:07:09.420 Nixon said he wanted to save jobs and fix a $2 billion trade deficit.
00:07:15.200 But that's not true.
00:07:16.520 What Nixon was doing was paying for war and the great society.
00:07:20.480 Any of this sound familiar?
00:07:23.260 You know, save American jobs, fix a trade deficit, make sure that we don't go into debt anymore.
00:07:30.220 But what he did is unleash a storm that we're still weathering today.
00:07:34.860 You know, I'm not saying that everything was perfect before 1971.
00:07:39.740 Life never is.
00:07:40.720 But I want you to look at the numbers and tell me, was this a good shift or a bad shift?
00:07:47.360 In 1971, the top 1%, they held about 8% of the nation's income.
00:07:57.060 By 2010, the top 1% held 20% of the nation's income.
00:08:04.680 Their wealth climbing from 16% to now 23% last year.
00:08:11.520 The middle class, the heart of America, 61% of us in 1971, we had 61% of all of the income.
00:08:21.000 By 2021, they're half the country, scraping by with only 42%.
00:08:27.740 And the wages, they tell another tale.
00:08:30.240 From 1979 to 2024, productivity, how much we make, jumped 81%.
00:08:37.080 But the wages for the people who are making that barely budged.
00:08:43.720 Now, this is the wages for the bottom 90% of our country.
00:08:48.100 They didn't go up.
00:08:49.680 Well, I shouldn't say that.
00:08:51.040 From 1979 to today, they went up 29%.
00:08:54.380 The houses that cost three times your salary in 1971 now cost six times your salary today.
00:09:02.500 The debt has doubled from $0.60 per dollar to $1.20 by 2007.
00:09:12.360 If you check the charts, everything, everything started to break when Nixon cut the gold cord.
00:09:21.540 So, what happened?
00:09:23.240 Well, we birthed a new world.
00:09:26.320 Without gold, money supply ballooned.
00:09:28.600 The M1 money supply, so you know that's the money, that's the cash everybody has that's liquid.
00:09:34.940 That's in your checking account.
00:09:36.300 That's what's in your wallet.
00:09:37.880 That's what's available to you at an ATM.
00:09:41.360 It's whatever you buy pizza with, that's the M1 supply, okay?
00:09:45.820 That's not, I've got money in stock market or whatever.
00:09:49.620 You're available cash.
00:09:50.880 The supply ballooned 9% in 1972 alone.
00:10:00.880 That means printing more money.
00:10:04.080 We have more money chasing few goods.
00:10:07.180 That means inflation.
00:10:08.880 Inflation was up by 11%.
00:10:11.160 Financial wizards cooked up futures and options and everything else where all the things that keep busting, like 2008, all of those things that are just these, you know, it's just alchemy.
00:10:27.620 These financial wizards are like, I'm going to make gold.
00:10:30.660 And it's alchemy.
00:10:31.680 And they keep busting.
00:10:32.980 And we keep paying for it.
00:10:34.220 And they get richer.
00:10:35.060 Meanwhile, factories closed.
00:10:37.780 Manufacturing jobs fell from 26% in 1970 to 8% by 2020.
00:10:44.660 Globalization sent jobs to Japan, then China.
00:10:47.320 The trade deficit swelled to $13 billion by 1980.
00:10:53.020 Now, don't get me wrong.
00:10:55.060 Nixon didn't mean to break us.
00:10:56.680 What he was doing is he saw a world slipping, gold reserves shrinking against $14 billion in foreign dollars, and he acted like a, you know, a farmer burning the crops to save his crops.
00:11:13.560 The fire spread.
00:11:15.820 Stagflation came about.
00:11:17.360 9% unemployment.
00:11:18.860 Prices started to soar.
00:11:20.420 The oil crisis didn't help.
00:11:22.420 Quadrupling gas costs.
00:11:23.960 Confidence broke.
00:11:24.740 The middle class started its long slide into where we are now.
00:11:29.160 That's the history, raw and real, etched in the Congressional Budget Office numbers and Pew Research.
00:11:36.440 Fast forward to April 2025.
00:11:39.800 Now here's Donald Trump staring down a trade deficit of $971 billion.
00:11:49.060 Announcing tariffs, 10% on everybody and 125% on China.
00:11:55.680 The market does what a market does when it's spooked.
00:11:59.840 S&P 500 down 5.4% in a week.
00:12:02.840 Volatility.
00:12:03.820 Kind of like 87 or 88.
00:12:06.060 Treasury yields what we have to pay.
00:12:08.640 When we're borrowing money, we sell treasuries.
00:12:11.320 That's like going to the bank and asking for a loan.
00:12:13.600 Depending on your credit, what is your interest rate?
00:12:17.520 If you have bad credit, the interest rate is higher.
00:12:19.560 We are having bad credit.
00:12:20.900 It's up now to 4.49%.
00:12:23.140 That's a 50 basis point leap.
00:12:27.040 And people are starting to say, let's get out of this.
00:12:31.380 China is hitting back.
00:12:33.140 They are dumping our T-bills, our treasury bills.
00:12:40.020 Taiwan, stocks wobbling, consumers, people like you and me, bracing for higher prices.
00:12:45.680 University of Michigan survey says inflation fears are spiking.
00:12:50.140 It's Nixon.
00:12:51.680 This is Nixon.
00:12:53.380 But take a step back.
00:12:56.240 Trump's not stirring the pot.
00:12:58.300 What Nixon did was he took us off the gold standard so we could spend more money.
00:13:04.600 And to make us, this is what he promised the world, that he would make us consumers, not producers.
00:13:12.780 So we would consume what everybody else was producing.
00:13:17.440 So in a way, that was his plan.
00:13:20.880 And he got it.
00:13:22.700 But it cracked the system for the average person.
00:13:26.840 Nixon's tariffs lasted four months.
00:13:31.200 It didn't fix the core.
00:13:32.500 Trump is going bigger and bolder.
00:13:34.600 He says he's going to bring jobs home.
00:13:37.400 Could it backfire?
00:13:39.540 Yeah.
00:13:40.440 Yeah.
00:13:41.040 Tariffs might add another 1% to 2% to prices, maybe 3% to 5% on your Walmart card,
00:13:46.680 because everything from Walmart is coming from China.
00:13:49.400 The Peterson Institute, by the way, has run the numbers.
00:13:52.060 Higher yields could strain our $2 trillion deficit,
00:13:55.400 make mortgage prices higher.
00:13:58.940 The retaliation from China is real, and China is not blinking, and neither are we.
00:14:04.880 Now, do we stumble into recession, stagflation like the 70s?
00:14:08.760 I don't know.
00:14:09.800 In the 70s, real wages fell 5% in a year.
00:14:13.440 Here's the flip side.
00:14:14.620 If Trump pulls this off, if we start setting things right, where we mean what we say and say what we mean,
00:14:24.700 we get everything under control, we're not just spending, and we have no real assets that we actually are sitting on,
00:14:32.320 if wages rise 1% to 2% like the IMF predicts, if supply chains come home, we could see something new.
00:14:41.560 Not a return to 1971, but a system where the middle class isn't crushed, where houses don't cost your soul,
00:14:48.620 and where the top 1% don't control almost everything.
00:14:52.460 Even Bernie Sanders would agree with this.
00:14:55.280 But no, no, no.
00:14:55.920 He's not because he's busy at Coachella.
00:14:57.500 I'll get to that here in a second.
00:14:59.900 But here's the thing.
00:15:01.680 History is a very tough teacher.
00:15:04.540 Nixon's shock showed good intentions can spark long fires.
00:15:09.780 Inequality, debt, a hollowed-out heartland.
00:15:15.720 This is a very big stakes game.
00:15:19.340 But what has a higher cost is not trying to fix the system.
00:15:24.240 That's a slow bleed, and we're almost out of blood.
00:15:28.840 There have been 50 years to prove the point.
00:15:31.020 This doesn't work.
00:15:31.800 The system is broken, but it's not dead.
00:15:34.700 Imagine a world where our children's jobs actually pay enough,
00:15:38.360 where America is not just buying, but it's building.
00:15:41.680 That's the gamble, and that is the next generation's new American dream.
00:15:46.860 So we're at a crossroads like we were in 1971.
00:15:50.140 Hopefully we're wiser.
00:15:51.840 Trump's not Nixon.
00:15:52.940 He's got a history map, scars and all.
00:15:56.780 Will he fix what is broke?
00:15:59.060 I don't know.
00:16:00.760 Things are getting a little dangerous and tough.
00:16:06.160 This is where the big boys play.
00:16:10.100 This is why Trump earns the big money,
00:16:12.360 even though he doesn't actually take a paycheck for any of this.
00:16:16.960 But we're playing the highest stakes of a game.
00:16:20.540 Here's the latest from China.
00:16:24.100 And I don't know how many people are really focusing on this,
00:16:27.200 but this is the ball game.
00:16:30.100 China now says that they're going to cut us off on rare earth minerals.
00:16:39.000 Now, we have plenty of rare earth minerals.
00:16:46.780 There is a new space race.
00:16:49.180 Do you remember when JFK said this?
00:16:51.580 We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things,
00:16:56.060 not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
00:16:59.320 Apparently, even harder than saying decade, not decade.
00:17:03.580 I don't.
00:17:04.220 Anyway, I digress.
00:17:05.980 So this was really important because it was a space race.
00:17:10.180 This would change the world.
00:17:12.740 Whoever got to space first, got to the moon first, would change the world.
00:17:17.580 But there's a new race, and it is just as game-changing.
00:17:23.140 This one is even more critical, and that is the race for rare earth minerals,
00:17:28.340 the tiny elements that power everything in our future.
00:17:32.500 Right now, China has just pulled a giant gun, and they're holding it to our head.
00:17:38.100 They are threatening to cut off all exports of rare earth minerals.
00:17:42.440 And if we don't act with a JFK kind of moonshot, we will lose the AI race.
00:17:51.520 We'll lose quantum computing race.
00:17:53.900 We will lose every technological leap that is just over the horizon.
00:17:59.620 Rare earth minerals are not just elements and rocks in the ground.
00:18:03.320 They are the backbone to our modern world.
00:18:05.820 Everything from high-tech weaponry that will defend our skies to the smartphones that are in your pocket
00:18:14.420 to the wind turbine eyesores that the left loves so much and mean nothing,
00:18:21.520 and the quantum computers that will redefine what is possible.
00:18:26.840 Here's the deal.
00:18:28.140 In 2024, we produced 45,000 metric tons of rare earth oxide concentrate from the U.S.,
00:18:37.120 mostly in the mountain pass in California.
00:18:39.900 Sounds great, but we only refined about 6,500 metric tons of usable material.
00:18:47.140 6,600 metric tons is our demand every year.
00:18:59.360 So we're close, and yet so far away, because 70% of what we need still comes from China,
00:19:07.680 and Beijing knows this.
00:19:09.520 And this month, they've halted all exports, saying it's in their national interest to stop.
00:19:15.320 We knew this was coming.
00:19:17.880 We've talked about this for a long time.
00:19:19.920 Do not be held hostage.
00:19:22.760 They are weaponizing the rare earth minerals.
00:19:26.040 So what's at stake, and what do we do?
00:19:28.680 We'll do that in 60 seconds.
00:19:30.080 First, out on the wind-rustled prairies that still exist in this country,
00:19:34.100 between the veins and the arteries of American cities, towns,
00:19:37.340 and even just some wild spots in the road,
00:19:39.540 there still exist the men and women who have always made sure
00:19:43.080 that America's Supper was waiting for them on the table.
00:19:45.880 There are farmers and our ranchers,
00:19:47.800 and every day, through toil and sweat,
00:19:49.940 they raise the cattle and the pigs and the chickens,
00:19:53.020 all of the food that we have.
00:19:54.820 So you don't have to.
00:19:56.240 So I don't have to.
00:19:57.080 So we can go to the grocery store and fill our baskets.
00:20:00.140 But every year, there are fewer and fewer of them.
00:20:03.580 Meat gets shipped in from overseas.
00:20:05.420 Giant meat packing plants drive the small farms
00:20:08.020 and the small ranches out of business.
00:20:10.440 But don't worry, Bill Gates is here.
00:20:13.220 And Good Ranchers is here.
00:20:14.820 They're working to change it.
00:20:16.400 They source 100% of their meat from American farms and ranches.
00:20:21.180 Just real beef, real chicken, real pork,
00:20:23.820 born and raised and harvested right here in the United States.
00:20:27.400 So when you subscribe to Good Ranchers,
00:20:29.120 you're putting your money behind American agriculture.
00:20:32.940 I want you to go to goodranchers.com.
00:20:35.420 Subscribe and get your choice of protein for a year.
00:20:38.860 Stand with American ranchers and farmers.
00:20:41.280 We need these guys to survive.
00:20:42.980 It's goodranchers.com.
00:20:44.520 It's goodranchers.com.
00:20:46.340 American meat delivered.
00:20:48.340 10 seconds.
00:20:48.940 Station ID.
00:20:59.460 Okay, so everything we need.
00:21:01.300 Batteries for our cars.
00:21:03.820 Chips.
00:21:05.420 Everything that we need for quantum computing,
00:21:08.220 for AI, et cetera, et cetera,
00:21:09.600 it comes from rare earth minerals.
00:21:11.580 China now produces 270,000 metric tons a year.
00:21:16.060 That's 70% of what the globe consumes every year.
00:21:19.540 We're second at 45,000 tons.
00:21:23.580 But we're at the mercy of their refining.
00:21:25.920 It's like we have lots of oil, but no refineries.
00:21:28.920 I can't just pour raw barrels of oil into my car.
00:21:33.300 I need somebody to refine it, and we don't make refineries.
00:21:36.780 Here is the danger of globalism.
00:21:39.180 We gambled on a world where everybody plays fair, where supply chains are just a matter of efficiency.
00:21:44.620 But globalism has left us exposed, and we're handing all of the power over to China.
00:21:52.960 And that power is the power to choke us to death.
00:21:56.080 It was a reckless bet.
00:21:58.840 We all knew this was bad.
00:22:00.440 We have everything we need.
00:22:02.740 Mountain Pass in California, Bear Lodge in Wyoming, Round Top in Texas.
00:22:06.940 We have the talent.
00:22:08.620 MP Materials, Rare Element Resources, already stepping up.
00:22:12.520 MP Materials invested $2 billion to get 6,500 metric tons refined output.
00:22:18.080 They're ramping up.
00:22:20.080 Rare Elements Resources says with $500 million, they could have a full-scale plant running in 18 months.
00:22:27.080 We have all of the pieces we need.
00:22:29.580 We just need the will.
00:22:31.820 Experts estimate $10 to $15 billion to make sure that our full domestic supply chain,
00:22:39.060 refining plants, alloy production, magnet factories, everything, everything is done here.
00:22:46.520 And for the money, that it would be a rounding error in the federal budget.
00:22:51.700 We spend twice that on stupid crap every year.
00:22:56.420 If we can fund carbon footprint studies on, I don't know, turtles and elves,
00:23:04.820 I think we could probably fund this.
00:23:07.420 Because the timeline is so important.
00:23:10.320 If we use the mandate that we found in November, we could be self-sufficient in five years.
00:23:19.180 In five years, the whole world will be different.
00:23:23.020 Without a push from the federal government, we're looking at eight to ten years.
00:23:28.940 And that's way too late.
00:23:31.160 We lose.
00:23:32.040 We lose.
00:23:33.300 This is about the future right now.
00:23:36.820 We need somebody, President Trump, to stand up and define what is important to our future.
00:23:46.800 What are the important things that we have to do and we have to do right now?
00:23:51.720 Because jobs coming back is not enough.
00:23:55.380 The right jobs have to be here.
00:23:59.060 All right.
00:24:00.180 This is Glenn Beck.
00:24:02.640 Every day, there are men and women put on a uniform knowing that they might not come home.
00:24:07.940 Soldiers, police officers, first responders.
00:24:10.520 They all know the risk.
00:24:12.080 But they don't hesitate.
00:24:13.220 They go kick down doors that we wouldn't kick down.
00:24:15.740 I wouldn't.
00:24:17.360 When the unthinkable happens, when a hero falls in the line of duty, what happens to their family?
00:24:23.000 When a hero is horribly injured, what's next?
00:24:26.260 Well, that's where Tunnel to Towers comes in.
00:24:29.880 They step in to provide these families with mortgage-free homes, including smart homes where they're needed.
00:24:35.600 You know, somebody loses their legs, they're there.
00:24:38.180 And this isn't charity.
00:24:39.400 This is gratitude.
00:24:40.400 It's a promise that says, thank you for what you did your whole life.
00:24:44.940 Thank you for your sacrifice.
00:24:46.940 Right now, they could use your help because the need is growing.
00:24:49.820 Even with a small monthly donation, you can help make sure these families never have to worry about losing their home on top of losing the loved one.
00:24:57.540 America's heroes have given so much.
00:24:59.320 Together, we can say thank you in a lasting and meaningful way.
00:25:02.220 If we want our government to do less, we have to do more.
00:25:05.500 Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org.
00:25:09.380 That's T, the number two, T, dot org.
00:25:12.320 Issue two of Frontier Magazine about to come out.
00:25:20.300 You can get on board at blazeunlimited.com slash glenn.
00:25:24.880 blazeunlimited.com slash glenn.
00:25:40.760 Well.
00:25:42.320 My gosh, what a great moment for all of womankind yesterday.
00:25:49.200 One giant leap for women.
00:25:50.540 Wouldn't you say, Stu?
00:25:51.860 For womankind?
00:25:52.880 Yeah.
00:25:53.640 It was impressive.
00:25:55.200 Jeff Bezos, who's just all jacked up.
00:26:01.740 He's just all jacked up on some kind.
00:26:05.840 I don't know what, but.
00:26:07.440 I just want to have sex with my babe.
00:26:10.220 Uh, he's a little disturbing.
00:26:12.760 Yeah, but if you see my rocket ship, it's, it's made to look like one of my private parts.
00:26:20.100 Really?
00:26:20.780 It is, by the way.
00:26:21.900 It does look phallic.
00:26:24.240 You know how much thrust it has.
00:26:29.780 So, uh, he, uh, disturbingly, uh, was at the launch of the giant phallic symbol yesterday.
00:26:37.700 And I put women in there.
00:26:42.160 And so he had, uh, women, some, just some great, great women.
00:26:47.820 Uh, he, uh, he, uh, he put in his, his lover.
00:26:56.700 She's a what?
00:27:00.100 Uh, so she was in there.
00:27:01.880 And then, uh, and then he had Katy Perry and, uh, Gail King.
00:27:07.520 And I, uh, can we, can we focus on one little thing that bothered me from the coverage of
00:27:12.980 this?
00:27:13.280 Other than the fact that it was covered at all?
00:27:15.680 Um.
00:27:16.340 Yes, but my girlfriend isn't usually covered.
00:27:20.100 Which I love.
00:27:22.480 I don't have sex.
00:27:25.840 It's an interesting Bezos impression you've got working here.
00:27:28.940 Um, there's a lot.
00:27:30.360 I mean, doesn't he look like he's just about out of control with all of the steroids that
00:27:35.780 are raging through him?
00:27:38.220 Allegedly.
00:27:38.940 Yes.
00:27:39.380 Um.
00:27:39.840 Yeah.
00:27:39.860 All right.
00:27:40.100 Anyway.
00:27:40.360 It does feel like there's a, there's something, I feel like it's one of those, like, not quite
00:27:45.940 in GNC, but near GNC supplements.
00:27:49.800 Like there's a GNC and then there's also a stand outside of it that's not related to GNC,
00:27:54.720 but selling similar products that might not be legal.
00:27:57.720 Like, I feel like that's where he shops.
00:27:59.040 I don't know.
00:27:59.700 I could be wrong on that.
00:28:00.360 I mean, I, I, I'm not sure.
00:28:01.700 We don't know.
00:28:02.200 Allegedly.
00:28:03.080 Um, so, uh.
00:28:04.700 I get my steroids the same place that my main squeeze gets all of her plastic.
00:28:12.200 Um, they kept calling these women the crew.
00:28:16.840 I'm sorry.
00:28:17.480 What did Katy Perry do on this flight to be considered crew?
00:28:21.660 Am I, am I on the crew every time?
00:28:24.220 Are you talking about what she did to get on?
00:28:26.580 Let's not talk about that.
00:28:27.860 Cause that could be a whole nother story.
00:28:32.040 But like, when I'm on an American Airlines flight to Des Moines, am I on the crew?
00:28:37.960 No, you're not really the crew.
00:28:39.200 I'm just sitting there.
00:28:39.620 No, you're not the crew.
00:28:40.680 You're a passenger.
00:28:41.740 I'm a passenger.
00:28:42.300 You're a passenger.
00:28:43.200 Right?
00:28:43.720 Yeah.
00:28:44.020 So I don't think necessarily the crew is the right way to say it's an all-female crew.
00:28:48.300 Is it?
00:28:49.140 Do we have any of the audio of the, of the, the crew?
00:28:53.240 Those are like the guy parachutes.
00:28:55.520 There we go, the drug parachutes.
00:28:57.620 Just free-falling right there until those drugs came out.
00:29:01.120 Are they screaming?
00:29:01.780 Next will be the main parachutes that get pulled out.
00:29:09.160 Hear that screaming inside the capsule?
00:29:11.700 It's a very soft, soft cannon despite this sporty perception.
00:29:15.540 Oh my gosh, that is embarrassing.
00:29:16.000 There it is.
00:29:20.500 Are they screaming out of terror?
00:29:22.120 Or is they screaming out of like, you know, rollercoaster-ish joy?
00:29:28.220 Who cares?
00:29:29.360 I don't really.
00:29:34.580 I don't know.
00:29:35.580 I don't know.
00:29:36.420 But it, it's not a good look.
00:29:38.520 It's not a good look.
00:29:40.660 Now, his girlfriend said, everything is so nasty and so vitriolic nowadays.
00:29:50.180 I mean, if everybody could experience that peace that we had up there, the kindness and
00:29:57.480 what it takes to do what we did, the very world would be a better place.
00:30:04.520 Uh-huh.
00:30:05.280 Uh-huh.
00:30:07.540 Gail King said, I'm so proud of me right now.
00:30:12.740 The courage.
00:30:14.020 What?
00:30:14.740 What?
00:30:15.420 She's so proud of me?
00:30:16.820 Yeah.
00:30:17.200 We have that.
00:30:18.020 Go ahead.
00:30:18.260 But the best part was when we got back in our seats after Zero G's, Katie sang, What
00:30:23.640 a Wonderful World.
00:30:24.920 She did?
00:30:26.020 Oh, come on.
00:30:27.000 She sang, What a Wonderful World.
00:30:29.180 I see dreams.
00:30:30.380 Oh, yes, yes, yes.
00:30:31.680 Oh, God.
00:30:32.340 Because we'd been asking her to sing all the time and she wouldn't.
00:30:34.980 And she wouldn't.
00:30:35.920 And then, because everybody said, sing Roar, sing Fireworks.
00:30:39.220 And she said, it's not about me.
00:30:40.620 I wanted to talk about the world.
00:30:42.220 Wow.
00:30:42.700 And it was that nice.
00:30:43.400 I'd be praying for this thing to crash into a mountain on the way down.
00:30:47.020 If I was on that thing, I would be hoping for it to burn up in the atmosphere.
00:30:52.580 Oh, God, please don't sing again, Katie.
00:30:54.760 We missed the part of her actually saying, I'm so proud of me right now because it took
00:30:59.620 so much courage.
00:31:02.280 I mean, I...
00:31:03.780 Well, she was the crew.
00:31:07.080 She was probably the captain.
00:31:08.540 She still...
00:31:09.060 We know now she stood up.
00:31:10.680 She sat back down and she heard singing.
00:31:13.120 Yeah.
00:31:13.280 What else did she do?
00:31:14.520 Not much.
00:31:15.540 Not much.
00:31:15.840 I didn't think so.
00:31:16.620 Not much.
00:31:17.140 Now, I would say it is brave if we trusted those people to be the crew.
00:31:21.780 Well, then, yeah, it would be very brave to get on that thing.
00:31:24.480 It would be.
00:31:25.100 Like, Katie Perry is like my co-pilot.
00:31:27.380 Right.
00:31:27.860 Exactly.
00:31:28.520 I'd rather get on a submarine to the Titanic.
00:31:30.580 In an experimental small little sub?
00:31:35.440 Yeah, I think so.
00:31:36.820 So, I don't...
00:31:37.920 I mean, I guess there's some bravery if they actually were responsible for anything, but
00:31:42.180 I think they were just passengers.
00:31:43.760 Yeah, I think so, too.
00:31:44.740 Okay, you have some more video here?
00:31:46.680 Hey, Flynn up there.
00:31:47.860 Flynn, I got you.
00:31:49.200 I got you, Flynn.
00:31:51.300 Oh, the moon.
00:31:52.600 You guys, I have to tell you, look at the moon.
00:31:55.360 Look at the moon.
00:31:56.080 Look.
00:31:57.380 Wow.
00:31:57.700 Okay.
00:31:57.940 Look at the moon.
00:32:02.080 Who's that woman?
00:32:02.960 She's not even...
00:32:03.840 From the Bahamas.
00:32:04.760 She's not even mentioned in the history.
00:32:06.920 That's amazing.
00:32:07.960 Or her.
00:32:10.440 That's amazing.
00:32:11.560 That's a butterfly.
00:32:12.460 Oh, that's really cool.
00:32:14.360 So, you have that going.
00:32:16.800 I'm sure it's a cool flight.
00:32:18.460 I'm sure it was.
00:32:19.200 I'm like, it's a cool ride.
00:32:20.380 It's like going...
00:32:21.100 I'm sure it's on an amazing roller coaster.
00:32:23.140 Well, you know...
00:32:23.740 But I don't know that necessarily we should have been hearing about it at all.
00:32:27.220 I think Katy Perry said it best when she said, and I quote, I wanted to model courage.
00:32:33.240 Oh, my God.
00:32:34.000 And worthiness and fearlessness.
00:32:37.100 I feel really connected.
00:32:38.340 Wait, she wanted to model worthiness?
00:32:40.980 These are not...
00:32:41.480 Like, these aren't even sentences.
00:32:43.220 I wanted to model worthiness?
00:32:45.300 Was she worried of that free gift?
00:32:46.720 God, our society is...
00:32:47.960 Yes.
00:32:48.780 Yes.
00:32:49.400 She was more than worth.
00:32:52.420 She said, I feel...
00:32:53.360 What does that even mean?
00:32:54.080 Well, I'm sorry.
00:32:54.880 Wait, what does this mean?
00:32:56.600 Can we just dive into this?
00:32:57.840 What does it mean to model worthiness by taking a flight as a celebrity into a spaceship somebody
00:33:04.220 just let you get on?
00:33:05.520 How does that make you...
00:33:06.640 She had to work...
00:33:07.440 She was worthy to be a passenger on a ship?
00:33:10.160 Yeah.
00:33:10.460 She had to work to become famous so she could get on that ship that nobody else can.
00:33:16.220 Because she's super famous and because of her mediocre singing that she could get on a flight
00:33:21.880 owned by the guy who delivers all of our pet food?
00:33:25.360 Yes.
00:33:26.640 Now, she went on to say, and this is where her worthiness comes in.
00:33:29.800 She says, I feel really connected to that strong, divine feminine right now.
00:33:36.000 In the ship that looked like a giant penis that a guy built?
00:33:39.680 I think I'm going to ride!
00:33:45.400 We're going to be so connected tonight.
00:33:49.140 All right.
00:33:50.340 Okay.
00:33:51.160 Yeah.
00:33:52.340 So, that's great.
00:33:54.960 I think they were all very worthy of that flight.
00:33:57.720 I mean, I have no problem.
00:33:58.720 He wants to give the flights away to people.
00:34:00.200 Yeah, totally.
00:34:00.920 I mean, I'd love to...
00:34:01.700 I would go.
00:34:02.620 But I wouldn't come down going, I was so worthy.
00:34:05.860 I was so worthy and so brave.
00:34:08.200 So brave.
00:34:08.660 I think I model...
00:34:10.300 Worthiness.
00:34:11.440 Worthiness and bravery.
00:34:12.860 I wanted to model that.
00:34:14.820 That's why I was up...
00:34:15.880 You know, when we were up in the air, I was going...
00:34:17.320 Ah!
00:34:18.280 Ah!
00:34:20.080 That was...
00:34:21.160 I was...
00:34:23.540 That was good.
00:34:24.560 That was good.
00:34:25.120 Is this...
00:34:26.040 I honestly ask you this question.
00:34:27.900 Yeah, okay.
00:34:28.300 Is this in any way a newsworthy event?
00:34:33.500 Now, look.
00:34:34.100 It's an achievement...
00:34:35.100 Shooting...
00:34:35.720 Wait a minute.
00:34:36.160 Wait a minute.
00:34:36.620 Wait a minute.
00:34:37.000 Wait a minute.
00:34:38.080 Shooting celebrities into space?
00:34:40.280 Yeah.
00:34:41.000 If the thrusters kept going, yes.
00:34:43.620 Yeah.
00:34:43.840 I mean, it's like...
00:34:44.800 You know, we're just shooting them into space.
00:34:46.660 I think that's very newsworthy.
00:34:48.160 We're halfway there.
00:34:49.560 We just shouldn't return them.
00:34:51.160 So, this was a test flight.
00:34:52.200 Eventually, we'll just start picking celebrities to launch into the sun.
00:34:54.780 I hope.
00:34:55.340 I hope.
00:34:55.480 I don't...
00:34:57.000 There's been tons of people who have done this.
00:34:58.680 This was like, sort of like, quote-unquote, space, right?
00:35:02.940 Like, it was like a really...
00:35:04.660 I mean, I'm sure it was impressive.
00:35:06.160 It would be really fun to go on, I'm sure.
00:35:07.840 But it's like...
00:35:08.140 That would be great.
00:35:08.820 It's just a big, high flight.
00:35:11.480 Like, it wasn't like anything that hadn't been done before, right?
00:35:15.580 Like, it wasn't...
00:35:15.980 There was no...
00:35:16.940 No.
00:35:17.240 I guess just the fact that they put a bunch of people with vaginas on the flight,
00:35:20.520 that was the big notable thing?
00:35:21.700 That's a big thing.
00:35:22.380 That's a big thing.
00:35:23.220 Is it?
00:35:23.560 Yes.
00:35:24.040 Is it notable?
00:35:24.820 Do we care about that?
00:35:25.860 Yes.
00:35:26.920 Why?
00:35:27.360 Because...
00:35:28.760 Because...
00:35:30.180 Because they...
00:35:32.760 They don't represent mankind.
00:35:35.460 They represent womankind.
00:35:38.900 One big step for...
00:35:41.260 One small step for women.
00:35:43.140 One large step for womankind.
00:35:46.000 That's what happened yesterday.
00:35:48.060 If you don't think that's newsworthy, well...
00:35:49.860 I just feel like this was just Jeff Bezos looking to hook up with a bunch of people,
00:35:56.580 and we were all like, let's watch it on the news.
00:35:57.940 Why would you watch something to say that?
00:35:59.820 I mean, he put a bunch of people that he wants to sleep with on a penis.
00:36:03.480 Yeah.
00:36:03.840 And sent it into space.
00:36:05.180 I mean, it's...
00:36:05.880 Honestly, it is like a Austin Powers movie.
00:36:10.300 It really is like what you would see in Austin Powers.
00:36:14.140 And everybody would laugh.
00:36:15.580 And he's doing it.
00:36:16.620 And we're all laughing.
00:36:18.080 So, you know, God bless you.
00:36:19.860 There, Jeff, that's...
00:36:21.240 I mean, for him, I got...
00:36:23.480 No, look, he's a guy.
00:36:25.700 He does whatever he's doing.
00:36:27.540 You know, I mean, there's been questions about his personal life,
00:36:29.700 and maybe the supplements he's taking.
00:36:32.320 However, like, hey, you got a bunch of money?
00:36:35.060 This is how you want to spend it?
00:36:36.400 All right.
00:36:36.580 That's totally fine.
00:36:38.080 I mean, you know, I know that...
00:36:39.020 It's impressive technology, obviously.
00:36:40.600 It's not industry-leading technology.
00:36:43.440 No, it's not.
00:36:44.040 It seems like it's like third or fourth place technology.
00:36:46.520 But still, better than I could do.
00:36:48.060 It's the best way to pick up women, though.
00:36:49.500 It seems like an expensive way, I got to say, to pick up women.
00:36:53.360 Yeah, well, sure.
00:36:54.720 There's got to be something easier than sending them into space.
00:36:58.000 It's Jeff Bezos.
00:36:59.880 Yeah.
00:37:00.780 I mean...
00:37:01.380 I just figured these supplements could help with some of that.
00:37:05.260 His girlfriend doesn't look cheap, does she?
00:37:08.260 Oh, yeah.
00:37:08.620 It doesn't look like...
00:37:09.560 That's not a cheap date that's happening right there.
00:37:12.040 You're paying in all kinds of cash for dating that way.
00:37:18.800 Anyway, there is one other piece to this.
00:37:23.340 Bezos, as he's going to get his hot babe out of the capsule, here's what happens.
00:37:28.500 We love being able to share this experience with you, and thank you for sharing.
00:37:33.560 There's Bezos there.
00:37:34.800 How you feel out here with our audience.
00:37:37.000 He's looking.
00:37:37.620 He's running around.
00:37:38.260 It's been really, really incredible.
00:37:39.920 So, yeah.
00:37:40.140 That was a Biden-esque fall.
00:37:42.200 It was.
00:37:42.660 That's a huge fall.
00:37:43.920 Yeah.
00:37:44.060 I keep hearing he face-planted, which he sort of does, but it was a slow descent to the
00:37:52.200 earth with Bezos falling there.
00:37:54.800 It was like a fall onto the knee, onto the chest, onto the face, and the hands don't really
00:38:00.800 get there in time to stop it.
00:38:02.160 And that's kind of amazing, because he looks like he's in incredible shape.
00:38:06.080 Right.
00:38:06.440 Yeah.
00:38:06.820 I mean, considering all the time he seems to spend in the gym these days, you'd think...
00:38:11.980 I mean, because when Biden fell off the bike, it reminded me of that.
00:38:14.880 Remember how slow that happened?
00:38:16.280 It's like, he's seeing this coming, right?
00:38:17.840 We had full conversations in the time when it went from the bike standing up to the bike
00:38:22.020 being on its side.
00:38:22.900 You know, you should put your leg down.
00:38:24.080 You're going to fall.
00:38:24.980 Yeah, you're falling.
00:38:26.140 You should do...
00:38:27.300 Okay.
00:38:27.660 There it is.
00:38:28.340 Oh, there it is.
00:38:29.020 All right.
00:38:29.240 Let me tell you about Cozy Earth.
00:38:31.160 Have you guys slept on the sheets?
00:38:32.660 Oh, yeah.
00:38:33.780 Yeah.
00:38:34.140 They are awesome.
00:38:34.960 They are awesome.
00:38:36.040 Very, very nice.
00:38:37.020 Yeah.
00:38:37.380 Yeah.
00:38:37.600 I actually dislike you a lot.
00:38:39.200 Because I gave you Cozy Earth sheets?
00:38:41.980 Because I can't get out of bed.
00:38:43.460 Okay.
00:38:43.780 That's why I've been late.
00:38:44.760 I dislike them too, but for different reasons.
00:38:46.340 Oh, that's fair.
00:38:47.080 Exactly the kind of woman I'm looking for.
00:38:50.020 Cozy Earth is there to help you have a great night's sleep.
00:38:54.760 They make everything for their sheets.
00:38:56.200 Their pajamas are unbelievable.

00:39:00.000 Everything is engineered to regulate temperature, to wick moisture, to deliver the rest that
00:39:07.500 your body was made for.
00:39:08.820 It's made from a premium viscose from bamboo.
00:39:12.420 That does not sound like good.
00:39:15.580 It just doesn't.
00:39:16.480 They should drop this from the advertisement.
00:39:19.540 But it's...
00:39:20.060 I don't know how...
00:39:20.860 I mean, it's...
00:39:21.640 I mean, they're the softest things I have ever had.
00:39:24.260 I go home now, four o'clock in the afternoon.
00:39:26.800 I'll be in my Cozy Earth pajamas, like, all day.

00:40:08.400 Well, I guess we'll give you a minute to let all that sink in.
00:40:13.660 More Glenn Beck coming up.
00:40:26.120 Most people, probably you included, have locks on their doors at home.
00:40:30.820 You've got alarms on your cars.
00:40:32.520 You've got passwords on your phones.
00:40:34.040 All that protection that we think of all the time.
00:40:36.480 But what's protecting the title to your home right now?
00:40:39.260 And if the answer is,
00:40:40.160 Wait, is that something I need to even worry about?
00:40:44.500 Then you need to check out Home Title Lock right away.
00:40:46.740 Because you're in danger of literally losing your home to someone who wants to steal it.
00:40:50.720 And it's happening more often than you think.
00:40:52.500 Home title theft is a new but rapidly growing kind of crime.
00:40:55.680 One that doesn't require a break-in.
00:40:58.620 Just a few pieces of stolen data and a criminal with a computer.
00:41:01.340 And with the rise of AI, forging documents, faking signatures,
00:41:05.400 and transferring a home title isn't too hard anymore.
00:41:07.900 It's automated.
00:41:08.660 It's efficient.
00:41:09.720 And if you're not actively protecting your title, you may never see it coming.
00:41:13.300 That's why I use Home Title Lock.
00:41:14.620 That's why I encourage you to use it as well.
00:41:16.000 They have triple lock protection that gives you 24-7 monitoring into your home's title.
00:41:19.760 Instant alerts if anything changes.
00:41:21.880 And a U.S.-based restoration team.
00:41:24.200 Just in case something goes wrong.
00:41:25.860 And that's at no extra cost to you.
00:41:27.320 So fixing this, I will say, fixing this after it happens is not easy.
00:41:31.740 It's expensive.
00:41:32.820 It is exhausting.
00:41:33.520 And it's not guaranteed.
00:41:34.780 But stopping it before it starts, well, that's easy.
00:41:37.700 AI is changing the world.
00:41:38.760 Do not let them change the name of your home's title.
00:41:41.880 Go to HomeTitleLock.com.
00:41:43.640 HomeTitleLock.com.
00:41:44.560 Use the promo code Blaze.

00:41:49.100 It's HomeTitleLock.com.
00:41:50.640 The promo code is Blaze.
00:41:52.500 HomeTitleLock.com.
00:41:57.320 Shea writes in, watching the Blaze, Glenn, I agree with you, but Trump has to do something
00:42:13.120 big to help American people right now, or he will lose.
00:42:16.060 The tax cuts must come through.
00:42:17.780 Shea, I couldn't agree with you more.
00:42:19.740 I think tax cuts should have come before all of the tariffs and everything else.
00:42:23.360 That is up to Congress, and he needs to push for it.
00:42:26.740 Kara says, and dead silence from the hate the rich lefties.
00:42:33.140 Let's see.
00:42:33.860 S, in 1973, they started EPA standards on cars, so cars turned into crap after that.
00:42:39.140 And John said, opening up China for U.S. investments and getting off the gold standard
00:42:44.800 were the worst things Nixon did.
00:42:46.540 And that's saying a lot, because I think he did some really bad things.
00:42:49.300 By the way, today is tax day.
00:42:53.120 Don't you feel so charitable?
00:42:55.280 My gosh.
00:42:56.840 Salza dancer, Salza dancer, Salza dancer.
00:42:58.960 I just feel like celebrating, and I feel so charitable.
00:43:03.200 I almost feel like Mother Teresa today.
00:43:05.580 Now, you won't be working for yourself yet until the 20th or 23rd of this month.
00:43:12.540 That means everything you've done between January 1st and next week, you've only done it for
00:43:20.440 the federal government.
00:43:21.480 In the United Kingdom, you don't stop working for the government there until June 12th.
00:43:26.640 In Canada, June 13th.
00:43:29.520 You're working six months a year.
00:43:31.100 Let me ask you.
00:43:31.720 All the work that you have done from January 1st until next week, do you believe that your
00:43:41.440 government deserves that much?
00:43:44.180 Do you believe working for them, you've worked for them, you've worked for yourself, not at
00:43:50.300 all until next week.
00:43:51.540 You've worked to pay them from January 1st until next week.
00:43:57.200 Do they do enough to deserve that?
00:44:00.200 Time is money.
00:44:02.060 How much time are they worth?
00:44:05.280 Because I don't think it's worth this much time.
00:44:08.760 Do you?
00:44:10.220 By the way, that's just for the federal income tax.
00:44:13.420 That's not state or local or any other tax.
00:44:17.340 That's just the federal government.
00:44:19.660 This is Glenn Beck.
00:44:22.120 Let me tell you about Jace Medical.
00:44:23.560 They're doing their best to stay on top of your medical needs.
00:44:26.500 Their Jace case, for example, is a pack of antibiotics.
00:44:30.640 Excuse me.
00:44:31.580 I should stop doing the Jeff Bezos impression.
00:44:35.840 The medicine that you might need might be on back order or sitting on a cargo ship halfway
00:44:40.640 around the world.
00:44:41.320 That's why they have the Jace case, all the antibiotics that you need.
00:44:45.560 With what's going on with China, you might want to consider getting this now.
00:44:51.020 They also have the new parasite use case.
00:44:53.180 It is a 90-day supply of essential medications, including ivermectin and other anti-parasitical
00:44:58.100 pharmaceuticals designed for situations where you are, you know, where you can't wait.
00:45:03.600 Nobody wants to deal with that for very long.
00:45:06.760 Whether you're traveling, facing a supply chain delay, or just want to be ready for the
00:45:10.640 unexpected, peace of mind is right in your own hands.

00:46:37.100 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:46:41.280 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:46:48.300 Hello, America.
00:46:49.760 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:46:51.240 I want to talk a little bit about the economy, things that are going on on our campuses,
00:46:54.740 and a little blast from the past just to remind you, some things change, and some things never,
00:47:03.000 ever change.
00:47:04.020 We'll get to that here in just a second.
00:47:05.420 First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
00:47:08.540 It is easy to support Israel when things are, well, easy in the world.
00:47:12.740 But that's so rarely the case.
00:47:14.780 In the Bible, God tells us he will bless those who bless Israel.
00:47:18.180 And right now, they need support.
00:47:20.080 They need somebody to bless them.
00:47:22.140 And I don't know about you, but I think our country needs some blessings.
00:47:24.860 So can we get together and agree on, let's do what the Bible tells us to do?
00:47:30.020 Ever since October 7th, to even a greater degree than before,
00:47:34.260 danger isn't just a possibility for millions of Israelis.
00:47:37.780 It's a daily reality.
00:47:39.740 Their kids are on their way to school, and they've got to, there's a bus stop.
00:47:42.920 And the bus stop, it doubles as a bomb shelter.
00:47:47.320 You know, all the time, these bomb shelters are in use.
00:47:51.460 The sirens go off.
00:47:52.580 You don't know what it's like to live in Israel.
00:47:54.200 We would never put up with it.
00:47:55.760 If Canada was doing this to us, we would never put up with it.
00:48:00.280 Well, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is showing up,
00:48:03.220 and they're funding emergency bomb shelters,
00:48:05.620 providing food boxes for families trapped in war zones,
00:48:08.780 and helping the elderly evacuate to safety.
00:48:11.560 They're supplying protective gear to first responders,
00:48:14.580 meeting needs fast with the help of people like you.
00:48:17.460 If we want our government to do less and be less involved in some of these things,
00:48:21.280 then we have to do more.
00:48:22.660 Let's stand with God's people.
00:48:24.240 You're positioning yourself to receive blessing that God himself promised those
00:48:28.720 who would bless Israel.
00:48:30.260 Give a gift to bless Israel and her people by visiting supportifcj.org.
00:48:34.560 That's one word, supportifcj.org.
00:48:37.900 888-488-IFC-J.
00:48:40.360 888-488-IFC-J.
00:48:44.280 Welcome, Stu Bergier, our executive producer.
00:48:47.560 Glenn, I'm looking at some economic data.
00:48:50.180 I want to get your take on this.
00:48:51.160 Okay.
00:48:51.320 So this is the New York Fed's survey of regional manufacturers.
00:48:58.960 Okay.
00:48:59.380 Okay.
00:48:59.760 So asking manufacturers what they see going forward about six months.
00:49:05.840 What are you ordering?
00:49:06.840 What are you ordering?
00:49:07.660 Raw materials.
00:49:08.220 What are you expecting?
00:49:09.220 Okay.
00:49:09.440 Um, and so this is from, uh, Joe Wiesenthal.
00:49:13.840 He says, uh, basically every line, new orders, employment, et cetera, is going down with the
00:49:19.320 exception of prices, which are going up.
00:49:22.220 Now I'm looking at the data itself and you see, you know, general business conditions,
00:49:26.940 new orders, shipments, all of these are going down.
00:49:30.960 In fact, all three of those in particular are worse than at any point since even 2020,
00:49:36.300 including the COVID era.
00:49:37.320 So they were believing six months ahead, general business conditions worse than they thought
00:49:42.580 it was going to be even in 2020.
00:49:44.260 When you go to prices, you see it, yes, uh, ticking up, but now almost to the peak levels
00:49:51.000 of the Biden inflation era, um, prices paid and prices, uh, received.
00:49:56.860 So they think all of this is going up, um, capital expenditures down a number of employees
00:50:04.380 way down, uh, to the point of basically as low as 2020.
00:50:09.540 Um, all of these things are, and again, we should point out, this is not just generally
00:50:13.900 generalized people predicting the economy.
00:50:15.720 These are manufacturers.
00:50:16.640 These are the people that ideally would be helped by, uh, these types of policies.
00:50:21.020 And it might just be that it takes more time than this might just be other economic
00:50:24.440 factors.
00:50:24.960 There's, there's, there's so much to deal with when you're talking about an economy and
00:50:28.680 especially one that's, you know, on a global scale.
00:50:30.600 Do you have any sense as to what's going on here?
00:50:33.160 Shouldn't we be seeing, I mean, prices doesn't surprise me, right?
00:50:36.080 That they would be up, but shouldn't we be seeing more optimism from manufacturers?
00:50:41.520 Uh, no, here's, here's why.
00:50:45.400 Let's say you make, uh, let's say you make that computer and you make your, you, you make
00:50:51.840 it here in America and you're going to sell it, but you don't make any of the parts here.
00:50:54.920 You just assemble it here.
00:50:55.980 Okay.
00:50:56.360 Okay.
00:50:57.180 Um, are you buying a whole bunch of pieces to make that computer right now?
00:51:05.360 If you're ordering, are you like, let's stock up you doing that right now or not?
00:51:11.760 I mean, I would think probably not.
00:51:14.420 You're why?
00:51:16.400 Um, well, I mean, the prices are going to be higher and maybe the just generalized instability,
00:51:21.740 like not knowing what the future holds.
00:51:23.940 Okay.
00:51:24.400 I would say I'm not doing it because the price is so high.
00:51:29.220 And once I buy that, if the price comes down because of tariffs are relieved, then I'm stuck
00:51:36.740 with all of this stuff that I'm now going to have to pass on to the, I'm going to have
00:51:40.360 a hard time selling that stuff.
00:51:41.960 Okay.
00:51:42.420 Cause the price is so high.
00:51:43.680 So I'm hoping this is just my guess.
00:51:46.900 I'm hoping as somebody who is running manufacturing that I got enough on hand, let's not order
00:51:54.640 anything.
00:51:55.060 Let's not do anything.
00:51:56.380 Let's hope that these tariffs are going to come down to be more reasonable.
00:52:00.600 But as you do that, you know how long it takes to get stuff and to build stuff.
00:52:06.720 So you're looking six months out in the, into the future.
00:52:09.780 What you're saying is, I don't know what it looks like six months from now for me ordering
00:52:15.580 stuff, but in six months from now, I'm going to have fewer things on hand.
00:52:20.960 And if, if the tariffs haven't come down, I am going to have to pass those prices on for
00:52:27.400 a longer period of time because all of that buildup.
00:52:30.880 And at that price, I don't know how many people are going to be able to afford my product
00:52:35.140 because it has a lot of product that's from China in it.
00:52:38.900 So I don't know what to do.
00:52:40.900 I don't want to be stuck with all this expensive inventory and I'm hoping that things change.
00:52:46.580 So it's the instability, it is the not knowing what's going to happen with these tariffs that
00:52:53.360 I think is doing the biggest damage when it's coming to those numbers.
00:52:58.700 Does that make sense to you?
00:52:59.940 So to, to, because business owners are looking at their next six months, their next year,
00:53:03.240 where those prices have not hit average people at all.
00:53:07.540 Like they, at all.
00:53:09.100 Yeah.
00:53:09.180 I mean, a lot of these, the first, unless you're buying a car, right?
00:53:13.560 Right. Uh, because those went on a little while ago, right?
00:53:16.740 Yeah.
00:53:17.020 Um, cause you, you actually told me a story.
00:53:19.680 I think you were, you said you were talking to a friend of yours that was a car dealership
00:53:22.780 owner.
00:53:23.400 Yes.
00:53:23.940 And how does that affect them?
00:53:26.240 So he went and he just took all of his money.
00:53:31.620 Cause you know, dealerships run on, you know, mortgage, you know, a loan, a revolving loan
00:53:37.480 for, you know, they're not sitting around with all that cash.
00:53:39.920 And so they have to buy the product.
00:53:42.180 So it comes in from GM or wherever, and all that product is sitting there and they own
00:53:47.420 it.
00:53:48.000 They own it.
00:53:49.020 They owe the bank for it.
00:53:50.480 And they are hoping that that product will sell in the next 30 days, 60 days or 90 days.
00:53:56.520 Okay.
00:53:57.080 And the bank is expecting that to turn like that.
00:54:00.500 So you go out and if you were thinking ahead, you bought all of that product at the lower price
00:54:07.400 price in hopes that you could have two or three months of low price product sitting on your
00:54:14.380 lot in hopes that when people come in to buy stuff, you don't have to have your, you're
00:54:21.040 not tariff free, your, your tariff exempt because it was already here in the United States before
00:54:26.560 the tariff came on.
00:54:27.700 Right.
00:54:28.300 Okay.
00:54:28.520 So your tariff exempt, so your prices stay the same.
00:54:31.300 The problem is after three months, you don't have the cars.
00:54:37.200 So you'll have three month cushion in hopes that a, the economy doesn't go to crap.
00:54:44.080 So nobody's buying cars.
00:54:45.900 If people are going to buy cars, you have them at the right price.
00:54:49.380 You have them at the old price.
00:54:50.760 So you can sell them through.
00:54:52.200 If you don't sell them through now, you're on, now you're in real trouble because you
00:54:55.160 have three months, not one month.
00:54:56.680 You have three months of product sitting on your lot.
00:54:59.720 Okay.
00:55:00.200 That's a huge gamble.
00:55:02.340 So you're sitting there with all that product, hoping that that's going to sell at the old
00:55:06.780 price.
00:55:07.120 But if the economy goes down and everybody's like, I can't, I don't, I don't know if I
00:55:10.920 want to buy a new car, even at the old price, then they're in trouble.
00:55:15.000 And if they do sell through all of that and the tariffs are still high, now they've got
00:55:21.480 to buy all those cars at a higher price.
00:55:23.800 And can you get them on shore?
00:55:28.740 Who's going to order them?
00:55:30.940 You know what I mean?
00:55:31.900 Can you get them even to get across?
00:55:34.600 Are these companies even going to ship them and who are they going to ship them to?
00:55:38.280 Because how many are they going to buy?
00:55:39.460 How many people are going to buy it at, you know, 35, 25, 35, 50% more than what they
00:55:46.620 were paying?
00:55:47.740 Right.
00:55:48.220 Because, yeah, I think too, I'd be hesitant, right?
00:55:51.940 Because I think there's a chance this works out, you know, maybe like, because you imagine
00:55:57.560 if you have this big shipment coming from a place that maybe has some higher tariff rate
00:56:02.980 on it coming to the U.S. and you're like, I was, you know, talking to somebody who was
00:56:08.740 talking about delaying the shipments, like basically just saying, like, leave it there
00:56:12.060 for now.
00:56:12.940 Yeah.
00:56:13.400 Because we hope it's going to, this situation is going to change.
00:56:16.680 So you're like, ah, let's just hope, hold the, hold the, you know, the containers in
00:56:20.960 the port in, you know, wherever it was, Vietnam, and, and just wait.
00:56:25.420 And hopefully this clears up and then we can ship it because what.
00:56:28.820 And then what happens?
00:56:29.640 Well, well, then I guess then you have a lower supply of goods, right?
00:56:34.540 You have a lower supply of replenishing.
00:56:36.660 Yeah.
00:56:36.820 You're not replenishing.
00:56:37.920 But then when it's all, when the tariffs happen, now you have a glut.
00:56:42.180 You have all of those ports filled with stuff that now need ships to come over.
00:56:48.820 And because the shipping has been hurt because they haven't been shipping stuff, do they, how
00:56:56.380 long can you go holding those ships, you know, because they all have mortgages on those ships
00:57:01.980 too.
00:57:02.680 So if they're not in use in three months from now, what condition are those ship shipping
00:57:08.560 companies in to be able to say full steam ahead, open up all of the ports, open up all
00:57:14.600 the ships.
00:57:15.020 Do they, are they in any condition to be able to do that?
00:57:18.240 And so you have this glut on that side, then you have to get them across the country or
00:57:23.960 I mean, across the sea.
00:57:25.180 And then you have the same problem we had with COVID when COVID, when they open up the
00:57:29.600 ports again, then it was like, we couldn't move it fast enough.
00:57:33.140 Right.
00:57:33.380 We got bogged down with the trains.
00:57:35.040 I mean, yeah, this is going to be a real problem.
00:57:38.620 And that was a big part of one of the causes of the inflation, right?
00:57:41.640 What is that?
00:57:42.540 Yeah.
00:57:42.700 Um, so that, that's not good.
00:57:45.480 So what do you do?
00:57:46.720 I mean, obviously these, these policies are what they are, whether you agree with them
00:57:50.340 or not.
00:57:50.740 Is there anything else you can do to offset that?
00:57:54.000 Tax cuts and regulation cuts.
00:57:58.000 I can't believe the president is not pounding Congress on this.
00:58:04.360 You've got to, right now, all you have, if I'm, if I'm running a business right now,
00:58:08.820 I'm looking to assemble all these parts and I'm paying 25% more.
00:58:15.240 Okay.
00:58:15.800 I can't pass 25% onto my, my customer.
00:58:19.820 They, I mean, my product won't sell at 25, you know, unless it's, unless it's food and
00:58:25.320 then that'll be riots.
00:58:26.380 You know what I mean?
00:58:27.460 So I got to pass on 25% tariff.
00:58:31.180 Uh, is there anything I can cut to make that?
00:58:35.380 Well, if you cut regulation and you cut taxes, you ease that burden.
00:58:41.880 You give these corporations and you give, and you give the average person some relief.
00:58:48.020 The, the Republicans are only cutting that when they say they're cutting taxes, they're
00:58:52.140 only making the Trump tax cuts permanent.
00:58:54.660 This is infuriating.
00:58:55.760 Yeah.
00:58:55.780 It's all right.
00:58:56.560 You've already experienced that cut.
00:58:58.460 So you're not getting more cuts.
00:59:00.280 I mean, here we are in tax day.
00:59:02.720 There should, today is tax day.
00:59:04.940 The president should be all over television today talking about pushing a huge tax cut.
00:59:12.320 And we should be clear.
00:59:13.900 There is a contingency within the white house.
00:59:16.220 And I do not think Donald Trump is part of this contingency.
00:59:18.940 There's no way he is, but that they are floating tax increases on the rich people.
00:59:25.780 Again, that does not sound very Donald Trump ish.
00:59:27.860 I don't think that faction will win in this battle though.
00:59:31.760 Well, if it does, I will be critical of it.
00:59:33.740 And I'm sure you will be as well.
00:59:35.380 If you do tax increases at this point and tariffs, I don't know how you survive.
00:59:42.300 I don't know how the country survives.
00:59:44.040 Especially if you're doing it to the business owners.
00:59:46.040 Because that's, those are the people who pay the taxes.
00:59:48.180 Who pay that tax.
00:59:48.560 You know, you won't have the, you won't have the giant corporations.
00:59:51.360 You'll have every single middle, you know, upper, middle, upper income.
00:59:57.680 That is a, somebody who's an entrepreneur that's struggling to make ends meet.
01:00:02.180 Those are the people that are going to be hit.
01:00:04.940 IBM's not going to be hurt.
01:00:06.820 Apple's not going to be hurt.
01:00:08.400 They'll be hurt in the sales of their products because they're paying the tariff, but they're not going to be hurt in taxes.
01:00:13.540 They'll figure out a way to get, you know, get around the taxes.
01:00:16.700 They'll pay less tax or, you know, the same kind of tax they've been paying.
01:00:20.660 They'll find the loopholes.
01:00:22.180 It'll be the people who are in the middle who are struggling to keep their businesses open.
01:00:27.100 It will be exactly like COVID.
01:00:30.180 It will hurt the small business and it won't necessarily hurt the big business.
01:00:35.200 And the thing that's good about the tax and regulation cuts you're talking about is it does, it basically achieves part of the goal of the tariffs, which is it doesn't alleviate the burden on foreign countries, but it does alleviate the burden on Americans, right?
01:00:54.840 American business owners, American taxpayers.
01:00:56.800 Yeah.
01:00:56.980 And it does, it helps.
01:00:58.920 It's the second part of the tariffs.
01:01:01.980 It's right now we're all stick.
01:01:04.620 Yes.
01:01:05.240 Okay.
01:01:05.620 Move to the United States or we'll put you out.
01:01:08.020 Well, you know, okay, maybe, but can you give me a carrot too?
01:01:13.120 I need a carrot.
01:01:14.520 Here's the carrot.
01:01:15.520 You'll pay, you move it.
01:01:17.440 You won't pay the tariff and you move it here.
01:01:20.520 I'm going to have you pay the lowest income tax as a business in the world.
01:01:24.700 So there'll be no place better for your taxes than the United States of America.
01:01:29.880 That's why Texas is growing.
01:01:31.580 That's why Florida is growing.
01:01:33.080 That's, that's what the United States needs to do.
01:01:36.600 They need to make the income tax shockingly low.
01:01:41.780 So people will say, and the, and the regulation shockingly low.
01:01:45.860 So I don't have to have a whole bank of attorneys.
01:01:49.240 I don't have to do, I want to build a building.
01:01:51.460 What I have to do, a wildlife refugee and indigenous people's study for four years first.
01:01:58.600 I get what, what, I forget it.
01:02:00.780 I'm not going to do that.
01:02:01.680 Yeah.
01:02:02.180 People stop all the time.
01:02:03.440 That's the stuff they've got to cut.
01:02:05.740 I love that.
01:02:06.280 I also, you know, certainly the tax cuts and getting, getting them lower would be a great
01:02:11.580 outcome.
01:02:13.120 I, you know, I think that would excite people, right?
01:02:18.080 Right now there's a fear of these, of prices going up and economic activity cutting.
01:02:23.660 And remember, you know, again, this hasn't hit Americans yet at all.
01:02:27.700 I mean, none of this has hit Americans yet other than businesses.
01:02:30.160 And I, I, you know, you talk to business owners and they're freaked out about it, but like,
01:02:33.900 you know, the thing that got shipped, you know, from China is still in transit probably
01:02:38.940 by the time these higher tariff rates went into effect.
01:02:42.320 Like it's not even here yet.
01:02:43.700 So those, these prices have not even kicked in at some point, the American people are going
01:02:47.420 to start feeling them.
01:02:48.220 If you don't give them something to get excited about as well.
01:02:51.740 And I know we all know Trump wants to do this.
01:02:54.680 I mean, I don't know.
01:02:56.020 It's the first time I have seen him in this administration.
01:02:59.580 This time around, and he never does this.
01:03:02.580 So I, I, I, I'm going to sit down with him in the white house in a couple of weeks for
01:03:06.780 an interview.
01:03:07.160 And I can't wait to talk to him about this because he's, he's not, he, he, he has a
01:03:13.920 better gut on him and a better sense for the American people.
01:03:17.300 He's got to know how the American people feel.
01:03:20.700 Yeah, I'm sure he does.
01:03:21.720 So what, what is happening?
01:03:23.440 What, why aren't these things happening?
01:03:26.560 I mean, it's just going to be Congress is not doing it.
01:03:28.200 Which I mean, again, what I think the answer is with a three seat majority or whatever
01:03:31.600 it is, it's really hard to get these things, but then channel the channel that energy to
01:03:36.900 them and not on what is Trump doing channel it.
01:03:41.760 That's, that's the bully pulpit that he has back in just a minute.
01:03:45.900 You know, ever notice how nobody around you thinks there's a problem until there is.
01:03:50.380 You look at things like the national debt, current inflation, global instability, looming
01:03:54.980 trade war.
01:03:55.800 You start making changes.
01:03:57.300 You cut back a little, you get out some of those, you know, risky investments.
01:04:00.820 You start saving money, uh, you know, and then you, it gets worse and worse and worse.
01:04:05.720 And everybody's like, no, it's not so bad.

01:04:19.060 They should be asking themselves, what if you're right?
01:04:22.400 What if you're right?
01:04:23.440 Because here's the thing.

01:05:34.560 10 seconds, Station ID.
01:05:35.480 Quick question here for you, Glenn, and I have not seen any focus on this.
01:05:49.420 We need to cut spending.
01:05:51.360 And we know, the president's been very clear, he's not going after, despite what the left
01:05:54.880 says all the time, he's not going after your Medicare, he's not going after your Social
01:05:57.440 Security, these big entitlement programs.
01:05:59.100 So it's difficult to cut.
01:06:01.660 However, we did just have a president that spent multiple trillions of dollars on things
01:06:09.060 that are brand new.
01:06:10.160 People are not locked into it.
01:06:11.580 They don't expect it.
01:06:12.480 They're not lifelong entitlements.
01:06:13.880 Cut them all.
01:06:14.420 I haven't seen anybody on the right in Congress even bring this up.
01:06:18.380 No.
01:06:18.480 Why aren't they going after whatever, every dime that was spent by Biden that you can still
01:06:23.180 bring back in and end all the programs?
01:06:25.240 Some are.
01:06:25.980 Some.
01:06:26.520 Chip Roy is one.
01:06:27.480 Go back to the 2019 spending.
01:06:30.420 Yeah.
01:06:30.960 Just return the budget back to what it was in 2019.
01:06:35.840 That'll save you trillions of dollars.
01:06:38.960 Trillions.
01:06:39.880 Remember, we didn't go crazy until 2020.
01:06:42.460 2019, 2020.
01:06:43.940 Yeah.
01:06:44.140 So go back to the pre-COVID spending.
01:06:47.020 That would, that alone would bolster our dollar and bring our dollar back up.
01:06:53.500 It would help people buy our treasury bills.
01:06:56.980 Right now with China dumping and now the treasury saying, well, we might buy our own treasury bills
01:07:02.920 back.
01:07:03.480 With what?
01:07:04.460 With what money?
01:07:06.800 Be really very aware.
01:07:09.860 Be very, very aware on how high stakes this game is.
01:07:17.020 This is Glenn Beck.
01:07:22.300 Pain isn't just something that you feel.
01:07:24.880 This is something that takes.
01:07:26.700 It takes your energy.
01:07:27.640 It takes your sleep.
01:07:28.440 It takes your patience.
01:07:29.400 It takes your drive.
01:07:30.380 It takes your mood.
01:07:31.600 After a while, it starts to become your identity.
01:07:34.400 It takes your identity and replaces it with just pain.
01:07:37.120 That's who you are now?
01:07:39.900 Please say no.
01:07:41.100 A person just living with pain?
01:07:43.340 Please say no.
01:07:44.080 When pain becomes your norm, you stop doing things that you love.
01:07:49.920 You start, you start saying no to people.
01:07:53.500 You shrink your world to fit into that body that is always in that fight mode.
01:07:59.820 Listen, I was in that place.
01:08:02.900 I don't live that way anymore.
01:08:05.060 Please try Relief Factor.
01:08:06.720 It was built to target the root causes of pain.
01:08:09.640 That's inflammation from aging and exercise or just life.
01:08:13.480 And it's not a drug.
01:08:15.160 It's not a masking agent.
01:08:17.340 It was invented by doctors who wanted people like you and me to get their lives back.
01:08:22.920 Hundreds of thousands of people have tried Relief Factor and hundreds of thousands are still
01:08:26.780 taking it every single day.

01:08:58.440 Welcome to the Glenn Beck programs.
01:09:01.060 We're so glad to have you join us today.
01:09:04.220 It's tax day and our taxes are only going to get worse and worse and worse if we don't
01:09:09.960 control our spending and inflation.
01:09:12.540 I was looking at the budget deficit in 2019.
01:09:18.640 Just listen to, just listen to this, the 2019 deficit or let me see if I can find exactly
01:09:28.980 what I was talking about.
01:09:31.320 Yeah.
01:09:32.080 $2.7 trillion for in 2019, $2.7 trillion.
01:09:39.760 Inflation adjusted is $3.3 trillion today.
01:09:45.620 Excuse me.
01:09:46.740 Wow.
01:09:47.080 That's a happens fast.
01:09:48.160 Wow.
01:09:48.700 That happens fast.
01:09:50.900 $600 billion difference.
01:09:53.120 That's your Biden inflation era.
01:09:54.840 Yeah.
01:09:55.200 Right.
01:09:55.400 That's all that.
01:09:56.300 Yeah.
01:09:57.300 That, I mean, that, that says a lot, says a lot.
01:10:01.700 It does.
01:10:02.940 And what's fascinating is what's the cause of all of that?
01:10:05.440 Well, at least a lot of it was spending.
01:10:07.580 Spending.
01:10:08.080 Right.
01:10:08.100 Giant and, and multiple new bills.
01:10:10.540 I mean, Biden authorized about four to $5 trillion of new spending when he was in office.
01:10:18.340 They went for it.
01:10:19.320 Remember?
01:10:19.760 Like, this was not a, this is not a, you know, remember Biden was brought in as like a return
01:10:24.060 to normalcy.
01:10:25.020 Yeah.
01:10:25.200 And we're just going to, we're going to be sane people.
01:10:27.480 We're just not, we're going to go crazy.
01:10:28.620 We're not going to be AOC.
01:10:29.740 Right.
01:10:30.200 Remember he was going against Bernie Sanders, right?
01:10:32.620 We're not going to be like Bernie Sanders.
01:10:33.980 Well, then he was just like Bernie Sanders and did all the spending and really went for
01:10:38.680 it.
01:10:39.200 And I, I, you know, we brought this up before, but like, I just don't understand why Republicans
01:10:43.640 aren't looking at every single dime spent and saying, absolutely not.
01:10:49.200 This, these crazy bills that were passed, we can over, we can overcome them.
01:10:54.220 We can reverse them.
01:10:55.240 Trump cannot.
01:10:56.220 Trump can't by himself.
01:10:57.200 No.
01:10:57.840 I'm talking about the reconciliation bill that's going to go through Congress, which is, has
01:11:01.360 these tax cuts.
01:11:02.080 And part of the trick, as you've mentioned before, is they say tax cuts, but what they
01:11:05.820 mean is making the current tax rate permanent.
01:11:10.520 Yeah.
01:11:10.700 It's not a tax cut.
01:11:11.680 It's not a tax cut.
01:11:12.460 That's just the current tax rate.
01:11:13.840 It's not what the American people voted for.
01:11:16.100 No.
01:11:16.360 You know, Donald Trump said tax cuts and, and everybody interprets that as an actual
01:11:21.940 cut to the taxes I'm paying, not a, not an extension of the same tax I'm paying into
01:11:30.200 the years going forward.
01:11:31.900 We want a tax cut.
01:11:34.140 So these are the two things the right are talking about right now, apparently, which is
01:11:37.560 one, make Trump's previous tax rate, the ongoing tax rate permanent.
01:11:43.840 Which, which again, it won't do enough, would be better than raising it to the former rate,
01:11:49.180 but it's not enough.
01:11:50.080 Good enough with the tariffs.
01:11:51.580 You have to make, you have to attract people to start businesses and bring businesses here
01:11:57.580 by actually giving them the most competitive tax in the world.
01:12:03.720 Right.
01:12:04.440 And of course, obviously, when it comes down to prices, you have tariffs are a tax, right?
01:12:08.300 Right.
01:12:08.440 So you already have that.
01:12:10.160 That's a little bit of pain, as Trump's talked about.
01:12:12.100 So you need to be able to alleviate the pain, not by making the current rate go on.
01:12:17.680 That's not going to alleviate any of the pain.
01:12:19.560 The other proposal by the right seems to be making the tax rates permanent from the
01:12:24.880 Trump tax rates, except for the highest bracket and returning those to the old rates.
01:12:29.840 That's insane.
01:12:30.700 If those are the two proposals, we're in serious trouble.
01:12:32.900 We're in real trouble.
01:12:33.380 Part of the problem here, though, to be fair, is scoring this bill.
01:12:38.000 When they go, when it goes through this entire process, the reconciliation process, what the
01:12:42.960 reason why you need that is because you don't have to get 60 votes in the Senate.
01:12:47.080 So you have to go through this reconciliation process to get this passed.
01:12:49.740 So you only need 50 votes, which the Republicans have.
01:12:52.340 The problem with that is it has to have, it has to be a situation that lowers the debt,
01:12:58.380 the deficit on the country.
01:12:59.400 Right.
01:12:59.960 So that's the rule to only have to do with 50 votes.
01:13:03.180 I have that answer.
01:13:04.300 OK, well, I mean, my only point here was going to be what they're saying, what the way this
01:13:11.500 gets scored, right, is that they say the keeping the rates permanent is a cost because
01:13:19.300 if we didn't change the law, the rates would go up and we get more money from taxes.
01:13:23.380 That's how that's scored, which to me is unfair and ridiculous.
01:13:25.780 But when you can dive into these programs that Biden has passed and authorized a bunch of
01:13:35.000 spending, much of which has not gone out the door yet.
01:13:38.020 Yes.
01:13:39.000 You can go in there, cut slash all of that stuff.
01:13:42.460 Yes.
01:13:42.840 And make all sorts of savings against those BS cost increase.
01:13:49.000 Yeah.
01:13:49.180 I mean, I feel like Jeff Bezos is like, I don't want to have sex with that idea.
01:13:57.300 But yeah, that's that is the answer.
01:14:00.560 OK, so you got to say, OK, well, I can save you a lot of money.
01:14:05.200 How much was the, you know, Inflation Reduction Act, which Biden is on record saying it had nothing
01:14:12.440 to do with inflation, had everything to do with global warming.
01:14:15.260 Well, the president doesn't believe in that nonsense.
01:14:18.900 The Congress doesn't believe in that nonsense.
01:14:21.320 The Republican senators don't believe in that nonsense.
01:14:24.060 Why aren't you just cutting that?
01:14:25.520 Yeah.
01:14:25.780 And most of that has not gone out.
01:14:27.600 A lot of it has not gone out.
01:14:28.880 And the way, again, these things get scored is if the money if the money is expected to
01:14:34.160 be spent and you say now it will not be spent.
01:14:37.640 That is a good improvement on your scoring, like it's going to help you get across the
01:14:42.940 finish line and what they would say, pay for the tax cuts terminology I despise more than
01:14:48.400 anything in the world, but pay for the tax cuts.
01:14:51.280 You have to be able to get that thing to score out appropriately.
01:14:54.700 Republicans are flirting with an idea, which I think is the sane idea in reality, which is,
01:14:59.820 hey, well, we're this isn't costing us anything because we're just keeping the rates the same.
01:15:04.180 That is not the way that's typically scored, and we don't know how that will work in the
01:15:07.600 courts.
01:15:08.140 Seems like they're trying to do that, and it would help them become more aggressive with
01:15:12.540 rate cuts.
01:15:13.180 But like, you need the aggressive rate cuts.
01:15:16.200 The tariffs may help as well, by the way, with the scoring process, which is one of the
01:15:20.900 reasons it's been rumored that they're doing them.
01:15:22.840 Now, I don't know if that's accurate.
01:15:24.640 I kind of hope it is, because if it's just a scoring mechanism, maybe they go away.
01:15:29.760 We will see on that one.
01:15:30.880 I don't know.
01:15:31.300 But in theory, if the tariffs are bringing in a bunch of money, they could say, well,
01:15:36.160 if they put them in a bill, they could theoretically get the expected savings from that, expected
01:15:44.740 gains, excuse me, from that as far as revenue, and you could offset that with cuts.
01:15:49.520 That would be a positive way that this might play out.
01:15:53.080 So let me just, let me explain something on how things work, okay?
01:15:57.000 When people say, you know, tax cuts, that's only for the rich.
01:16:05.640 First of all, that's not true.
01:16:08.100 Second of all, because the really, really, really, really, really, you think George Soros
01:16:11.600 really is paying any taxes?
01:16:13.700 No.
01:16:14.100 Why?
01:16:14.440 Because he's not making an income.
01:16:16.360 So income tax doesn't affect him, okay?
01:16:20.780 He's living off of his capital gains, which is what, 15, 20%, I don't even know, 15 or
01:16:28.500 20% capital gains, okay?
01:16:30.640 He's not paying 50%.
01:16:33.300 So the uber, uber rich, they're not paying it.
01:16:37.200 And if you don't like that, then you have to change the law and make capital gains over
01:16:43.580 a certain amount income.
01:16:46.460 But that's the way the law is.
01:16:48.740 And that's never going to change.
01:16:50.060 Why?
01:16:50.640 Because the rich are all powerful and will call up every friend and every favor they have
01:16:57.340 and say, don't let that pass.
01:16:59.160 So they're not, that's not affecting them.
01:17:01.660 Who is it affecting?
01:17:03.260 It's affecting the people that might have a million dollars, okay?
01:17:08.020 Now you think that's a lot, but if you're a businessman, that's about what it takes to
01:17:12.840 run a business.
01:17:14.480 You've got to have the money to be able to open up the business, start the business and
01:17:18.220 hire people, okay?
01:17:21.400 Those are the people that are going to be hurt.
01:17:23.220 Those were the people that were hurt during COVID.
01:17:25.520 All of your local employers that were struggling to make ends meet might have had a business that
01:17:31.720 was doing a million dollars.
01:17:33.080 That doesn't make them a millionaire.
01:17:34.760 That means their business is doing about a million dollars.
01:17:38.680 And they're still living on the edge, even though they own a business and everything else,
01:17:43.820 but they're the ones who hire people.
01:17:46.280 If you cut their taxes, then they can hire more people and expand their business.
01:17:52.220 And if you cut their taxes along with the lower, you're going to have people that can buy
01:17:57.420 those products, go to those restaurants.
01:18:00.360 So what happens?
01:18:01.760 Well, it's nothing.
01:18:02.580 We just lose money because they're not paying their fair share.
01:18:05.520 No, you're expanding the base.
01:18:09.140 For every dollar that they are not spending going to the government, they're probably going
01:18:14.820 to spend it on their business to enhance their business, grow their business, which means
01:18:19.600 they will hire more people.
01:18:21.480 And those people now share the burden by paying taxes.
01:18:25.220 You end up making more, not less.
01:18:29.760 If you grow your way out of it, this is Donald Trump 101.
01:18:33.920 He knows all of this.
01:18:35.520 So why it's not happening, I don't know, but he knows all of this.
01:18:39.000 So you get more jobs, more tax revenue is collected.
01:18:43.460 When you spend less, you incur, just think of the United States as a, somebody coming into
01:18:51.320 a bank for a loan, you going into a car dealership to get a loan.
01:18:56.460 If your credit is 400, you're going to get a loan.
01:19:01.300 Maybe it'll be hard.
01:19:03.120 And what will happen?
01:19:04.340 Your interest rate will be through the roof.
01:19:06.620 We are somebody that's walking into a car dealership with bad credit.
01:19:12.700 We spend more than we make.
01:19:15.000 We don't look like we're good for it anymore.
01:19:17.860 We're on the decline.
01:19:19.620 They don't believe we're going to get another job.
01:19:22.580 They see their numbers.
01:19:24.720 Okay.
01:19:25.620 You want us to take that loan?
01:19:27.320 Well, we lose a lot of banks like China and Japan and Germany and everybody else that was
01:19:33.460 holding our treasuries.
01:19:35.620 China in particular is dumping.
01:19:37.540 So we've lost our biggest bank because we don't look dependable.
01:19:44.300 So when you go in and you really reduce your spending, all of a sudden the world says,
01:19:49.920 oh, well, they're serious about fixing their problem.
01:19:52.140 If you do just one of these things, tariffs, cutting spending, or taxes, it's not going
01:19:59.580 to solve your problem.
01:20:00.900 But cutting spending is the only one that will make people go around the world, oh, looks
01:20:06.600 like they're serious this time.
01:20:08.720 If we cut taxes, we cut spending, and then we cut regulation.
01:20:14.900 Well, we have to have regulation.
01:20:16.700 Do we?
01:20:17.380 How much regulation is enough regulation?
01:20:19.660 Because for everything that is set into regulation, that means every business, every person has
01:20:26.480 to file more paperwork.
01:20:28.180 You have to have more attorneys.
01:20:30.100 You have to have more people in between you and the thing you're trying to accomplish.
01:20:36.960 Time is money, and money is money.
01:20:40.640 I got to spend money on attorneys to make sure I'm in compliance with everything.
01:20:45.300 The more attorneys I hire, the less regular people I hire.
01:20:49.040 And I don't know about you, but I think America has far too many attorneys.
01:20:52.940 Attorneys don't build anything.
01:20:56.780 Attorneys are the no police.
01:20:58.460 They are there to say no so you don't get into trouble.
01:21:02.080 If you leave things up to an attorney, nothing's going to happen because they just view the world
01:21:08.520 differently than creators.
01:21:10.140 The creators come in, and they need good attorneys, but you don't want a buttload of attorneys because
01:21:18.680 now you're outnumbered, and they're going to say no, and you're spending all of your money
01:21:23.580 on attorneys.
01:21:24.640 That's not a good idea for any business.
01:21:29.060 And what is Congress?
01:21:30.520 It's filled with attorneys.
01:21:32.880 So we cut the regulation.
01:21:37.700 That means I have an easier time to accomplish my goals as a small business person.
01:21:43.480 I can start this because I don't need millions of dollars just to get through all the regulations,
01:21:49.820 all the hurdles that the government is going to do as a small business person or a big business
01:21:54.540 person.
01:21:55.020 If I'm a country that has to deal with more regulations than any other country in the world,
01:22:01.600 that's why Europe is dying.
01:22:03.660 You want to go ahead, wrestle through their regulations.
01:22:06.680 You'll never get anything done.
01:22:08.840 We're becoming that.
01:22:10.480 You have to cut that.
01:22:12.080 Then you cut the taxes on everybody.
01:22:18.160 You cut your spending, and then you have tariffs.
01:22:23.240 That's the package that Donald Trump was talking to us about.
01:22:28.240 He's done what he can do.
01:22:30.140 It's now Congress's turn to go in and just return us to the spending of 2019.
01:22:37.560 What's the problem with that?
01:22:40.260 Why is that so controversial?
01:22:43.080 Return us to the spending of 2019.
01:22:47.500 Back in a minute.
01:22:48.360 You know, it doesn't take much to lose control of your identity, maybe just a data breach
01:22:55.020 or a credit check that you didn't ask for.
01:22:57.120 One piece of personal information lands in the wrong hands, and suddenly someone else becomes
01:23:02.280 you, and they're opening accounts.
01:23:03.940 They're taking out loans.
01:23:05.040 They're pretending to be you while the real you is left to deal with all the wreckage.
01:23:09.300 You think to yourself, I'm careful online.
01:23:11.460 I don't click sketchy links.
01:23:12.860 That's great, but it's not enough.
01:23:14.520 The truth is, you can't do everything right all the time, and even if you did, you're
01:23:18.880 still going to get hit.
01:23:20.280 I mean, this has happened.
01:23:21.220 Tanya will call me once in a while.
01:23:22.500 She'll be like, hey, do you know?
01:23:24.080 I'm like, just don't click on it.
01:23:26.520 Okay?
01:23:27.040 Your data is everywhere.
01:23:29.300 Hospitals, banks, payroll systems, government databases.

01:24:08.240 Glenn Beck.
01:24:21.200 So what's the unhealthiest meal that you've eaten lately?
01:24:25.380 I don't even want to tell you mine.
01:24:27.760 There's very few that are actually healthy.
01:24:29.580 Tanya hasn't been home since Saturday.
01:24:31.340 Oh, gosh.
01:24:32.120 Yeah, it's ugly.
01:24:33.100 It's been ugly.
01:24:33.700 Lots of fried whatevers.
01:24:36.000 It's ugly.
01:24:36.500 You're supposed to eat five servings of fruits and vegetables in a day.
01:24:39.300 You've been hitting that number.
01:24:39.800 Not happening.
01:24:40.420 No?
01:24:40.940 No.
01:24:41.280 Even if you count like french fries as a vegetable?
01:24:44.240 Are they little orange slices that are covered, you know, the little orange, you know, like
01:24:47.840 and the sugar on it.
01:24:49.740 How about circus peanuts?
01:24:51.920 I think that's a vegetable.
01:24:52.780 Okay.
01:24:53.040 Okay, there we go.
01:24:54.360 Look, we're human and we don't always eat healthy.
01:24:56.420 That's, you know, I understand that.
01:24:58.080 But that's why Field of Greens exists.
01:24:59.740 And it's why doctors created it.
01:25:00.860 If you drink a delicious glass of Field of Greens every day, it's like a nutritional armor
01:25:05.500 for your body.

01:25:11.320 And we're talking about, you know, heart health group, lung and kidney group, metabolism,
01:25:15.860 even healthy weight groups, which I'm not always living up to that standard myself.

01:25:24.180 And if you're going to have that burger, you're going to have that chips in the middle

01:26:01.620 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:26:03.860 So Sarah just said in the break, she said, you know, it all sounds good.
01:26:09.280 She said what you just said.
01:26:10.560 I was like, okay, I got it.
01:26:11.880 Right, Sarah?
01:26:12.920 I got it.
01:26:13.700 It's great.
01:26:14.240 But the other side tends to do a really good breakdown also, so I get confused on which
01:26:20.140 side I should be with.
01:26:22.480 Well, who pays your paycheck?
01:26:24.820 But you know what?
01:26:26.620 It's great.
01:26:27.240 So let me give you the strongest argument against it maybe next hour.
01:26:33.600 Okay?
01:26:33.860 So I'll give you my argument and then the strongest argument against it, and let's take it from
01:26:40.040 there.
01:26:40.260 So you have both that you could look at, and gee, I wonder who's going to win on my talk
01:26:45.600 show.
01:26:46.500 But no, I'll be fair and try to give the best argument against it.
01:26:49.960 What are they called?
01:26:50.320 Steel man?
01:26:51.020 Are you going to steel man that argument?
01:26:52.940 I've never heard that.
01:26:53.720 Oh, really?
01:26:54.120 No.
01:26:54.620 It's like your argument.
01:26:56.340 It's a straw man.
01:26:57.120 Oh, steel man.
01:26:58.080 Oh, okay.
01:26:58.380 The best version of that argument.
01:26:59.960 So it's kind of like Bernie Sanders at Coachella.
01:27:01.960 He was a steel man.
01:27:03.400 Sort of, yeah.
01:27:04.760 No.
01:27:05.080 Was that the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen?
01:27:07.500 I think it was like sixth of this week.
01:27:09.680 Yeah.
01:27:09.940 Okay.
01:27:10.300 Yeah.
01:27:10.500 All right.
01:27:10.700 Maybe.
01:27:10.760 I just watched a bunch of women go into space and claim they were crew members and say they
01:27:14.020 were...
01:27:14.520 Very brave.
01:27:15.300 ...and worthy.
01:27:16.180 Yeah.
01:27:16.720 ...and worthy.
01:27:17.040 ...and examining their worthiness or something.
01:27:19.460 So, no.
01:27:20.280 I don't think Bernie's the craziest part.
01:27:21.420 You're right.
01:27:21.440 You're right.
01:27:21.760 Okay.
01:27:22.120 When you're right, you're right.
01:27:23.220 You're right.
01:27:23.640 You're right.
01:27:24.400 Nobody has to make a counter-argument.
01:27:26.180 Sarah knows which side is right on that one.
01:27:29.140 All right.
01:27:29.760 Back in just a second.
01:27:32.600 Wombs that might be sewed into men.
01:27:35.280 We have that for you.
01:27:37.160 And oh, so very much more.
01:27:39.640 Stand by.
01:27:40.940 This is Glenn Beck.
01:27:43.540 Let me tell you about the Berna Launcher.
01:27:45.760 The Berna Launcher.
01:27:46.720 Something goes wrong.
01:27:48.380 You either rise to the occasion or you fall to the level of your lack of preparation.
01:27:52.560 It's a hard thing to hear, but it's true.
01:27:54.540 Sometimes the situation just doesn't count for a firearm.
01:28:00.040 Some places won't let you carry one anyway.
01:28:02.740 But that doesn't mean you walk in unarmed.
01:28:04.360 The Berna Launcher is a non-lethal self-defense tool that gives you real stopping power without
01:28:09.400 taking a life.
01:28:10.640 It is legal in all 50 states.
01:28:12.460 If you're over 18, you can get one.
01:28:14.440 Looks like a handgun.
01:28:15.620 Feels like a handgun.
01:28:16.460 But it fires kinetic projectiles like chemical irritants like pepper and tear gas.
01:28:22.260 It is legal in all 50 states.
01:28:25.380 If you're over 18, you don't need registration or anything else.
01:28:29.840 You just order one online.
01:28:31.080 They'll send it right to you.
01:28:32.280 It is the option between do nothing and go too far.
01:28:36.980 If you've ever found yourself in a moment where the action is required, this is what
01:28:41.020 you want a Berna Launcher.
01:28:42.260 B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Beck.
01:28:44.200 Berna dot com slash Beck.
01:28:45.720 B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Beck.
01:28:48.740 B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Beck.
01:28:50.380 We'll be right back.
01:29:20.380 We'll be right back.
01:29:50.380 It should be done to be able to help our economy.
01:29:54.320 Tax cuts, cutting spending.
01:29:56.560 It's not that hard.
01:29:58.360 It's really not.
01:29:59.960 You just have to get out of the way and let people fix the problem.
01:30:04.880 We're going to talk about that, although people fixing the problem, I guess New York is, you know, that's full of people.
01:30:11.460 And they got rid of Andrew Cuomo.
01:30:14.240 It looks like he's back.
01:30:16.580 We'll give you information on that.
01:30:19.360 Also, sewing wombs into men.
01:30:24.020 What could possibly go wrong?
01:30:26.740 We begin in 60 seconds.
01:30:28.160 First, imagine for a moment you got out to dinner with your friends.
01:30:30.580 Everybody orders what they want.
01:30:31.980 You order what you want.
01:30:33.380 Ted's new girlfriend, Rita, orders what she wants, which is the most expensive and disgusting item on the menu.
01:30:39.380 It's a kale-infused cottage cheeseburger with soy fries.
01:30:42.680 And when the check finally arrives, you're not only getting charged for your meal, but you have to pay for Rita's, too.
01:30:50.180 You know, not only do you have to pay more for that, but your money went to something you really don't like and want to support.
01:30:57.300 Rita can pay for that, right?
01:30:58.660 Am I right?
01:30:59.140 Would you put up with that from your mobile phone company?
01:31:03.500 I mean, they're not only charging you through the nose, they're using your money to fund leftist causes, and it's much worse than the soy fries.
01:31:11.900 Patriot Mobile offers the solution.
01:31:14.100 They're on the same cell towers.
01:31:15.620 You're getting the same service, and their customer service is U.S.-based.

01:31:24.000 And they use a portion of what they make to donate to those causes and work for those causes.

01:31:43.380 Sorry, Rita.
01:31:44.100 You've got to pay for your own food.
01:31:46.600 All right.
01:31:48.800 Can't wait to get to Andrew Cuomo here.
01:31:50.640 I'm sure Stu has something to say about that.
01:31:54.000 Maybe a little bit.
01:31:55.120 I've been hearing some stuff.
01:31:56.580 Yeah.
01:31:56.980 He's trying to make a little bit of a comeback.
01:31:58.940 Yeah.
01:31:59.260 Yeah.
01:31:59.480 Sure.
01:31:59.640 You know, and obviously, we should make sure to welcome him with open arms.
01:32:04.320 Yeah.
01:32:04.420 We'll do that maybe in a minute.
01:32:06.060 I'm excited for it.
01:32:06.980 You can go through the whole welcome back Andrew Cuomo list, because I know you've got a long list of things that you can.
01:32:13.480 He's just great.
01:32:14.360 Excited about.
01:32:14.820 Mm-hmm.
01:32:15.260 So, the Trump administration has frozen billions of dollars in federal funding for Harvard, because the Ivy League is refusing to comply to, hey, let's not let people say, let's kill all the Jews on campus.
01:32:32.660 I don't know.
01:32:33.960 Seems pretty easy.
01:32:35.880 You know, if you want your money spent, you know, there, go ahead.
01:32:39.740 I'm really done with the university thing.
01:32:42.340 I'm way past that.
01:32:44.040 You know, Harvard, you know, you have more money than Jesus.
01:32:48.700 Okay?
01:32:48.980 And I know at the time, he didn't have pockets, so he didn't have a lot of money, but the guys who were out there collecting money for him, now they got a lot, and you have more.
01:32:59.580 I'm done bailing your ass out.
01:33:03.120 You don't pay taxes, and I'm still paying for you?
01:33:07.160 No.
01:33:08.140 You get no federal money.
01:33:10.020 Absolutely no reason for us to be giving Harvard one dime.
01:33:13.100 No, not a dime.
01:33:14.180 None of these Ivy Leagues.
01:33:15.700 No.
01:33:16.680 Not a single dime.
01:33:18.400 What do they have, $50 billion in endowment that they could just milk forever and let everyone go to the college for free if they wanted to?
01:33:26.600 I think it's more than that, Stu.
01:33:27.760 Is it more than $50?
01:33:28.680 You should look it up.
01:33:29.780 I think it's a lot more than that.
01:33:32.260 But these Ivy League schools, there's no reason that we are paying for them.
01:33:36.980 None.
01:33:38.340 None.
01:33:40.000 Why?
01:33:40.520 Why should we send them a dime?
01:33:42.200 Especially when they're doing the same thing.
01:33:44.040 You know, this is not new.
01:33:45.040 This whole thing, you know, of hating the Jews, this is exactly what they did in the 1930s.
01:33:50.880 You know, they were overlooking any kind of anti-Semitism, and it was all driven by elitism.
01:33:59.040 It was all driven by anti-Semitic thought.
01:34:03.760 There was even, you know, they embraced the Nazis.
01:34:06.440 Harvard, the person that was running Harvard, the Harvard president at the time, James Conant, you know, he was keeping ties with the Nazi-controlled universities.
01:34:20.700 And then he brought people in from the Nazi party, including a Harvard alumni and a Hitler confidant, to campus in 1934.
01:34:32.120 Well, anti-Nazi students were like, hey, this is a problem.
01:34:37.520 And so what did Harvard do?
01:34:39.960 Called in the police.
01:34:42.160 Beat the protesters.
01:34:43.540 Protests were suppressed.
01:34:45.440 They tore down the signs.
01:34:46.700 They arrested the demonstrators, you know, all because they had a Nazi on campus, and they thought maybe that's a bad thing.
01:34:57.160 So also, Harvard, who, by the way, Trump is thinking about defunding, thinking there should be no thought in that.
01:35:05.220 I'm sure there's no thought there.
01:35:07.460 I'm sure he's already went, I don't have to think about it very long.
01:35:10.040 Cut it.
01:35:10.420 But anyway, they worried back in the 1930s.
01:35:14.400 There were just too many Jewish students and just too many Jews that are, you know, teaching from all over the world that are now coming here.
01:35:23.020 We can't have all this, quote, Jewish thought.
01:35:26.840 Oh, okay.
01:35:28.400 All right.
01:35:28.880 That sounds.
01:35:31.520 Okay.
01:35:32.160 Then you have Columbia.
01:35:33.700 They were just as good.
01:35:34.840 They had Nicholas Murray Butler.
01:35:39.380 He had the Nazi ambassador on campus and then did exchanges with the Nazi universities.
01:35:48.000 And it was great because they had all these Nazis on the campus and they were good for the Jewish population.
01:35:56.420 They loved it.
01:35:57.760 They loved it.
01:35:59.680 And the Columbia University said, well, you know, we have academic ties.
01:36:04.780 We're not talking politics.
01:36:06.720 Okay.
01:36:06.980 Well, they're, do you know they're gassing the Jews over there?
01:36:11.060 And it started with the universities getting rid of the Jews.
01:36:14.540 Yeah.
01:36:15.040 Yale, they were big time in eugenics.
01:36:19.060 It's like Stanford.
01:36:19.720 They were the eugenics leaders.
01:36:21.340 And those guys all had ties with the, with only the best medical people in Germany.
01:36:28.100 So nothing has changed.
01:36:31.020 Nothing has changed.
01:36:33.100 This is who they are.
01:36:34.840 They're the elites.
01:36:36.480 And, and I say they're the elites, but not all the elites.
01:36:40.060 Like they didn't want to hire any of the elite professors that came from Heidelberg.
01:36:44.720 If they were Jewish and out of a job, they're not getting a job here because they're the wrong kind of elites.
01:36:50.380 We don't want to play golf with them or be around them or hear any of their Jewish thought.
01:36:55.740 This should be a no-brainer on several levels.
01:37:00.160 Why are we giving Harvard that is just making money hand over fist and putting it into a big endowment so they can, they can last forever.
01:37:12.720 They could live off their endowment forever.
01:37:16.200 Why are we paying them money?
01:37:18.040 Why?
01:37:18.360 I'll tell you why, because we're in bed with the, um, the educational industrial complex.
01:37:26.900 We're producing people the government wants produced.
01:37:30.380 That's why, that's why that's happening.
01:37:32.780 Period.
01:37:34.420 You know, these are the, these are the same kinds of people that brought in all of these, you know, operation paperclip people.
01:37:41.060 When, when we had, we win the war and we find some of the worst of the worst, uh, and we find them over in Germany.
01:37:53.060 And we're like, oh, we got to have that guy.
01:37:55.020 We got to have that guy.
01:37:56.240 Let me give you a couple of, uh, Herbert Strughold.
01:37:59.420 Uh, he was known as the father of space medicine.
01:38:03.980 Ooh.
01:38:05.220 Uh, how did he become the father of space medicine?
01:38:07.800 Well, uh, he oversaw all the experiments at Dachau where all of the prisoners were subject to extreme conditions, high altitude.
01:38:16.420 Hey, how high can we fly before somebody pops?
01:38:19.380 Uh, hey, let's put them outside, pour water on them and see how long it takes them to freeze.
01:38:23.600 Or let's just, just force seawater in them and see how long they can last with just seawater.
01:38:32.040 Okay.
01:38:32.780 They didn't end well for the patients that were there, but it didn't matter.
01:38:37.180 You know, Columbia didn't mind cause they're all Jews.
01:38:39.160 They're all Jews.
01:38:39.860 So we can get rid of those guys.
01:38:41.500 Um, so he is, uh, he's, he's one of the guys that oversaw all of the doctors.
01:38:47.280 Um, he then went to the air force school of aviation, uh, for medicine.
01:38:53.600 Uh, where he was the guy here in America that advanced all of our space medicine.
01:39:00.240 Um, he's the guy who said, Hey, you know, we did this with Jews.
01:39:04.400 We saw how high you could go before they popped before their heads exploded.
01:39:08.460 Uh, you know, what happens to them if they get really, really super cold.
01:39:11.820 So I kind of know I have a little expert, uh, expertise in this.
01:39:15.140 So, uh, let me design all of the regulations and all of the safety protocols, um, you know,
01:39:23.480 for Mercury and Apollo.
01:39:25.780 That's a, by the way, uh, he, uh, also, uh, he has an award named after him.
01:39:32.160 Uh, the Strughold award is still being given out.
01:39:36.100 Uh, but, uh, you know, don't worry about that.
01:39:41.020 Uh, so then you had the Surgeon General of the Third Reich.
01:39:43.780 He was brought over.
01:39:45.040 Uh, he's the guy who supervised all of the medical experience, including typhus and plague
01:39:50.100 weaponization.
01:39:51.220 Uh, he approved all the tests, exposing the prisoners to lethal pathogens in camps like
01:39:56.440 Buchenwald, um, high ranking SS kind of guy.
01:40:01.440 Don't worry.
01:40:02.300 He just came over.
01:40:03.140 He was just doing stuff with our, uh, with our, uh, with our medicine.
01:40:06.720 Kurt Blum came over.
01:40:08.120 He was great.
01:40:09.460 Nazi biological warfare guy.
01:40:11.520 He was the tippy top of that.
01:40:13.200 Uh, you know, strangely, all these guys worked at the concentration camps.
01:40:17.400 I don't know what, I don't know what was going on in those concentration camps, why they
01:40:20.380 were working there, but this guy was working at Auschwitz and other camps and he was just
01:40:24.760 exposing people to all kinds of biological.
01:40:26.440 He's the guy who came over here and he helped us, uh, uh, make aerosol, uh, bioweapons.
01:40:32.420 Isn't that great?
01:40:34.660 All these guys were academics.
01:40:37.520 All of them were academics.
01:40:40.220 All of this needs to be burned out of our society.
01:40:44.860 All of them.
01:40:46.820 We should not have any awards named after Nazis.
01:40:50.340 I'm sorry.
01:40:51.060 I'm not a guy for tearing down statues.
01:40:53.280 I want people to remember who these people are.
01:40:56.020 I want the building, you know, the names of all of the buildings in Stanford.
01:41:00.000 I want the building to remain with those names because I want everybody to know they named
01:41:05.900 them after the worst eugenicists in the world.
01:41:11.900 Stanford university.
01:41:13.920 And, uh, in the meantime, I don't think we pay for any of it.
01:41:16.860 Uh, myself, I don't think we pay for any of this stuff.
01:41:20.380 They haven't changed.
01:41:21.880 They're exactly the same people and they keep reintroducing the same pathogen.
01:41:27.580 Anti-Semitism over and over and over again.
01:41:31.860 No, by the way, I don't know if anybody's noticed.
01:41:35.660 They have plenty of money in their pockets.
01:41:38.520 How much money do we have in our pockets?
01:41:41.600 Okay.
01:41:42.300 None.
01:41:43.240 We're borrowing money to give money to people who have all the money.
01:41:47.900 I don't think so.
01:41:49.120 I don't think so.
01:41:49.640 Are we going to give, uh, grants to Bill Gates?
01:41:55.580 I don't think that would be very smart.
01:41:57.940 I bet you we're doing it.
01:41:59.600 Wouldn't be real smart, would it?
01:42:02.020 That's what we're doing.
01:42:02.960 Um, so we got that going for us.
01:42:07.700 Uh, let's see what else is going on.
01:42:09.760 Oh, um, while we're here on medicine and Nazis and universities, a transgender activist that
01:42:18.740 was employed as the community navigator for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, the Children's Hospital, um, suggested that women should be allowed to donate their wombs to be transplanted into transgender women, otherwise known as men, to allow them to give birth.
01:42:38.700 Now, I don't think you can just sew those parts in and it works, you know, I don't think so.
01:42:44.920 Might be a little more complex than that.
01:42:47.040 But what do I know?
01:42:48.380 I'm not a doc.
01:42:49.620 Oh, I am a doctor.
01:42:50.940 No, no.
01:42:52.740 So, Allison Kathleen Simpson reportedly made the comments that surfaced in a video on social media.
01:43:00.040 She said the possibility of womb transplants was theorized in the trans community.
01:43:05.200 Yeah, you know when they did this the first time?
01:43:07.520 1925.
01:43:08.400 You know where they did it?
01:43:09.640 Berlin, Germany.
01:43:12.160 Whoa, wait a minute.
01:43:13.200 Are you saying all of this sexology and transgenderism and all that stuff was being done in Berlin, Germany, right before the Nazis took over?
01:43:22.940 Yes, honey.
01:43:23.900 That's exactly what I'm saying.
01:43:26.300 It's exactly what I and you know what?
01:43:27.860 When the Nazis came in and they decided that this was unacceptable.
01:43:34.920 See, the homosexuals do have gay community.
01:43:38.440 You do have a reason to fear Nazis.
01:43:40.720 They're not your friends.
01:43:41.740 I don't know why you march for them.
01:43:43.740 You know, the new Nazis are just the Palestinians.
01:43:46.000 I don't know why you march for them.
01:43:47.260 But you do have a reason to be afraid of Nazis because they didn't like you very much.
01:43:53.180 And when it got completely out of control and all of the literature about sewing wombs into people were in the schools and the the sexology university, I think of Berlin.
01:44:08.600 All of this stuff was coming from them.
01:44:10.660 And it went and it permeated their schools just like it's doing now.
01:44:14.520 That's when the Nazis came to power.
01:44:16.460 And so many Christians were like, I, I can't fight this.
01:44:20.360 It's completely out of control.
01:44:22.200 You know what?
01:44:22.960 Who these guys will the first book burnings were all the burnings of the stuff that we're pumping into our society right now.
01:44:29.900 So you don't want to grow Nazis.
01:44:31.980 You might want, might not, might not want to be an extremist and then shut everybody down who says, hey, that's extreme because you produce extremists.
01:44:42.460 The natural consequence is the other side produces extremists.
01:44:47.340 And then all of us in the middle are like, oh, dear God.
01:44:52.240 That's what's happening.
01:44:54.700 So it's, it's good.
01:44:57.200 She went on in social media.
01:44:58.900 She said, I have these parts.
01:45:00.860 I don't want them.
01:45:02.360 I want you to have them because you need them.
01:45:05.380 What if I gave you my womb?
01:45:07.100 Well, if you did, he'd probably die.
01:45:12.480 I think his body would reject the womb.
01:45:16.980 That's what happened to the first guy they tried to sew it into in 1929, 1925 is when they started, you know, putting breasts on him and everything else.
01:45:23.980 And 1929, he finally, you know, he got that womb and they sewed it inside of him.
01:45:29.140 For some reason, the male body rejects a womb.
01:45:32.160 Who would have seen that coming?
01:45:33.580 And he died in 1929.
01:45:35.520 But, hey, let's do it again.
01:45:38.200 Because, what did she say?
01:45:40.340 The transgender community has been theorizing about this for a while.
01:45:47.100 Yeah.
01:45:47.760 Yeah, since the 1920s.
01:45:50.600 Not a lot has changed.
01:45:52.560 Science doesn't change.
01:45:55.680 Real science doesn't change.
01:45:58.760 A man will always be a man.
01:46:01.820 All right, back in just a second.
01:46:03.000 Imagine you leave the faucet running.
01:46:04.900 Just a drip.
01:46:05.320 It's barely noticeable.
01:46:06.520 You come back a few months later and your water bill looks like you've been running a car wash outside of your kitchen sink.
01:46:12.340 That's what high interest debt is like.
01:46:14.880 A few credit cards here, a personal loan there, a balance transfer that never got paid off.
01:46:19.520 It doesn't look like much until you realize you're pouring hundreds of dollars a month down the drain.
01:46:24.180 And that's where American financing comes in.
01:46:26.480 They're not trying to sell you anything.
01:46:28.120 They're not pushing products at you.
01:46:29.380 They're just helping you to find ways to get out of debt and start building up your financial house so you can have future success.
01:46:36.020 The call is free.
01:46:37.100 The process is simple, and the savings could be absolutely life-changing.
01:46:41.820 I mean, you wouldn't let your sink run all day, right, for months.
01:46:44.980 Why on earth would you let your money run that way?
01:46:47.040 Why keep throwing a money away on debt, money that could help you and your family in the years to come?

01:47:15.900 10 seconds, Station ID.
01:47:16.960 I'm going to go to, I'm going to talk to you about another taxpayer-funded debacle that should go away, and that's PBS.
01:47:35.720 I'm going to narrow that down quite a bit.
01:47:36.960 I know.
01:47:37.500 PBS and NPR.
01:47:39.880 Donald Trump is talking about ending the taxpayer funding for that.
01:47:43.860 There's no reason.
01:47:44.700 There is absolutely no reason.
01:47:47.860 You know, they're violating all of their non-commercial bullcrap.
01:47:52.000 They're not supposed to be able to talk about the benefits of a certain product.
01:47:56.800 They can say, paid for by people just like you, like, you know, George Soros Foundation.
01:48:05.080 That's all they can say.
01:48:06.020 They can't say the George Soros Foundation, which specializes in such and such and is making the world a better place.
01:48:12.720 They can't say that.
01:48:13.880 By law, they can't say that.
01:48:15.320 They've been saying that for years.
01:48:17.080 And they're making money.
01:48:19.220 Lots and lots of money.
01:48:21.480 Can we stop giving funding to people that are already making money?
01:48:27.720 Yeah, we did this with Big Bird.
01:48:30.640 Remember when Mitt Romney said something about PBS or something?
01:48:34.440 And then they were like, they're going to try to kill Big Bird.
01:48:37.100 It's like, well, Big Bird, they make billions of dollars a year.
01:48:41.120 Merchandising alone.
01:48:41.960 Hundreds of millions of dollars a year just on merchandising.
01:48:44.160 Merchandising.
01:48:44.760 Right.
01:48:44.980 Like, they should be able to function with a budget.
01:48:49.080 Yeah.
01:48:49.400 You know, like other people, like other sources.
01:48:51.220 I know we should run the blaze on just a fraction of Big Bird plush toys.
01:48:55.380 Oh, gosh, yes.
01:48:56.380 Yeah.
01:48:56.720 A hundred percent.
01:48:57.580 I don't know why they can't run their whole thing.
01:48:59.440 And that's the thing.
01:48:59.980 Like, do you have a list of things?
01:49:01.040 I have a list of things that are loosely in my head of what the government, we shouldn't even consider spending money by the government unless you hit certain things.
01:49:09.180 Like, for example, no one else can do it.
01:49:12.940 Right?
01:49:13.200 Like the military.
01:49:14.140 Yeah.
01:49:14.360 No one else can really do that.
01:49:15.540 Well, they can, but we don't want them to.
01:49:16.960 We don't want them to.
01:49:17.680 Yeah.
01:49:19.080 We expect and will afford ourselves and whatever program is being funded some level of inefficiency.
01:49:28.100 Like, the military is another good example of this.
01:49:30.700 Some people would argue medical research is.
01:49:32.900 Like, I'm kind of okay with the government and its military wasting some money on some new weapon system that doesn't wind up working out.
01:49:42.620 Yes.
01:49:42.880 I'm like, okay with them failing at that.
01:49:44.520 I want the DARPA stuff.
01:49:46.180 I want that in that particular.
01:49:47.520 Have to.
01:49:47.820 So that makes sense.
01:49:49.180 If, like, arts are a great example of what you should never fund.
01:49:52.700 Because, A, people already like doing them.
01:49:55.540 Right?
01:49:55.860 Like, they already, people do art all the time.
01:49:58.060 They pay to go do art.
01:49:59.880 They like doing art.
01:50:01.340 People enjoy it.
01:50:02.400 You don't need to pay for it by the government if there is already.
01:50:06.460 You know, I really like Dallas.
01:50:07.880 I like Texas.
01:50:09.140 You know, Rick Perry came to the Dallas people because Boeing rejected moving to Dallas because there wasn't enough arts.
01:50:15.140 And he came to the community and said, you need to build some stuff.
01:50:17.700 This is.
01:50:18.360 And they did.
01:50:19.740 The private.
01:50:20.740 Without any taxpayer funds.
01:50:23.500 All right.
01:50:23.740 Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.
01:50:25.620 There are certain jobs which simply must be done by professionals in order for them to be done right.
01:50:30.740 Sad but true.
01:50:31.400 Your airline pilot should have more experience than you.
01:50:36.820 You know, and he probably should have more experience than all of the missions he flew playing Star Fox on Nintendo 64 back in the day.
01:50:46.400 You know what I mean?
01:50:47.100 Your surgeon has to do a little bit more than just, I played Operation.
01:50:51.180 Real estate agents, okay, real estate agents, you know, they have to have more than just a, you know, a powder-coated metal sign with their name on it.
01:50:59.080 That's why I started Real Estate Agents I Trust.
01:51:01.580 We make sure that when you reach out, we hook you up with an agent that we've vetted, and I mean vetted hard.

01:51:14.780 If you're selling, they will fight to get you the best price.
01:51:18.320 If you're buying, they'll help you find the right place at the right time.
01:51:22.120 They're just certain jobs that, you know, need people that you can trust.

01:51:43.700 You know, we've been talking today because it's tax day.
01:52:01.680 We should all be offended on what our government is spending money on, all of us.
01:52:05.340 I mean, there are some good things, but there's a lot of stuff they shouldn't.
01:52:08.640 For instance, you know, we talked about Harvard.
01:52:10.520 Why are we giving money to Harvard or to Princeton or any of these universities?
01:52:15.000 Why?
01:52:16.080 Because the government is counting on them to teach them what to think so they can have more droids up at the State Department.
01:52:25.940 Honestly, that's why.
01:52:30.120 There's no reason that our government should be funding any of those universities.
01:52:35.340 None.
01:52:36.000 Zero.
01:52:36.520 They all have plenty of money.
01:52:38.340 You want to help out a welding school?
01:52:41.900 Okay.
01:52:42.520 Help that out.
01:52:43.420 Sure.
01:52:44.540 Not these Ivy League universities.
01:52:46.480 Not a dime should be going to them.
01:52:48.220 Trump's talking about cutting them off because of the anti-Semitism.
01:52:51.220 I think that's great, but I think we should also cut them off because we don't have any reason funding them.
01:52:57.760 They have money.
01:52:58.720 The United States government does not have money.
01:53:01.080 Then we move to he's trying to take on the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
01:53:07.480 You know whose idea that was?
01:53:08.880 I mean, not originally.
01:53:10.100 What a surprise.
01:53:11.420 It originated, you know, in the Wilson and FDR administrations.
01:53:15.600 But it was LBJ that started the Corporation for Public Broadcast.
01:53:22.260 Okay.
01:53:22.420 And you know why?
01:53:23.700 Because the elites said there's just too many people.
01:53:27.800 They're not going to be educated.
01:53:29.180 They're just going to be watching this crap on television.
01:53:31.740 So, it was the elites that got together and said, this is bad for society.
01:53:37.740 We've got to have something that no one will watch.
01:53:40.240 I'm right.
01:53:42.200 I'm right.
01:53:42.740 I'm right.
01:53:44.000 You know, so I started looking up some things about the founders.
01:53:47.360 How would the founders have felt about this public-private partnership in education, public-private partnership in media?
01:53:56.880 Here, listen to a couple of things.
01:53:59.420 Jefferson said, the man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.
01:54:09.900 Let me put that into contemporary.
01:54:12.500 The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who only reads social media.
01:54:20.420 That's absolutely true.
01:54:23.160 That's absolutely true.
01:54:25.060 James Madison, he's the architect of the Constitution.
01:54:33.920 No way he would have been for NPR and PBS and being funded.
01:54:38.880 No, absolutely not.
01:54:41.320 Because he talked about how you can't have the government paying for things that will compromise the ability to challenge the authority.
01:54:53.600 You can't pay somebody who's supposed to be the watchdog.
01:54:58.840 Okay?
01:54:59.400 John Adams, listen to this one.
01:55:01.820 Tell me this doesn't sound like today.
01:55:03.560 Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak.
01:55:12.420 And that it's doing God's service when it's violating all of his laws.
01:55:17.860 That is absolutely true.
01:55:20.600 They all just think that, you know what, we've got to help out all these poor little people.
01:55:26.000 Oh, yeah.
01:55:26.420 Quick example of this.
01:55:27.760 Because they just don't understand.
01:55:28.920 Yeah, quick example of this.
01:55:29.860 The SAVE Act, which the government is currently trying, the Republicans are largely trying to pass, with a couple Democrats actually on board, but not many, is basically a voter ID Act.
01:55:39.060 Hey, you have to have an ID when you go to the polls.
01:55:41.880 The government has to provide an alternative form.
01:55:44.480 Like, if you don't have a driver's license, they have to have some sort of system for you to get it.
01:55:47.620 So, if you can't afford it or you don't want to drive, you can still get one.
01:55:52.000 Basic, basic, basic thing.
01:55:53.740 This is one of the most popular arguments that we have in the media.
01:56:01.080 We see it all the time.
01:56:01.920 It's constantly on television.
01:56:03.080 However, it is one of the most popular proposals in all of policy discussions.
01:56:08.280 70, 80% of almost every single demographic.
01:56:12.040 Almost.
01:56:12.900 Yeah, almost.
01:56:13.800 Almost every demographic.
01:56:14.980 Yes, agree on this.
01:56:17.620 It's very popular across the board, even with liberals and even with Democrats, right?
01:56:24.100 However, what's fascinating about it is the groups that are on MSNBC telling you it's terrible for poor people.
01:56:32.300 Yes, Muffin.
01:56:33.200 Those people support it at lower rates than the people supposedly affected by it.
01:56:40.700 For example, white liberals support the policy for voter ID at lower levels than black liberals do.
01:56:49.100 Rich people support it at lower levels than poor people do.
01:56:52.440 The people supposedly victimized by this support voter ID at higher levels than the people warning you about it.
01:56:58.100 Listen, listen, listen, because those poor people don't understand.
01:57:02.500 They don't have the intelligence to understand.
01:57:05.580 That's exactly it.
01:57:06.660 Exactly it.
01:57:07.380 You know, we were thinking about this going back to shows of yours in the past when you used to explain this with the progressive movement and their view of sheep and ranchers.
01:57:18.700 You want to go through that?
01:57:21.220 Yeah, the ranchers real quick.
01:57:22.440 The ranchers are the progressives and they see everybody else.
01:57:27.720 They're either in the ranch house helping them and that's all their friends and all the other leads.
01:57:33.020 We all just go out.
01:57:33.980 We're taking care of these poor little sheep.
01:57:36.580 We make it easy for them.
01:57:38.120 And they see you as a sheep and they will brand you.
01:57:41.400 They will feed you and keep you until they lead you to slaughter.
01:57:45.620 They're in charge.
01:57:46.900 What happens to you, the sheep, doesn't really matter.
01:57:51.520 Yes, they're trying to keep the wolves from out of the pen because they lose power.
01:57:57.120 They lose money.
01:57:58.100 They lose whatever it is that the ranchers have if wolves come in.
01:58:02.480 So they'll keep you safe, but only because they're profiting on it.
01:58:08.160 That's 100% what they do.
01:58:10.680 It's how they view the world.
01:58:12.560 It is.
01:58:12.820 And they, it's important to note that generally speaking, they don't see this as awful as it sounds.
01:58:23.040 Right?
01:58:23.640 A lot of them see this as we are doing God's work.
01:58:27.620 They don't say it as God probably, but they're doing charity to sacrifice.
01:58:32.700 They care.
01:58:33.660 They're working hard to protect these people from their own stupidity.
01:58:39.420 Right.
01:58:40.020 That's how they see the world.
01:58:41.800 Yes.
01:58:42.420 I don't see the world that way.
01:58:43.660 I don't either.
01:58:44.240 I, at all.
01:58:45.040 I, in fact, you know, if you're going to be an idiot, you can be an idiot.
01:58:48.300 I'm not going to protect you from it.
01:58:49.480 Some of the people that you would say, oh my gosh, they're an idiot, turn out to be genius.
01:58:53.420 Yep.
01:58:54.180 Over and over and over again.
01:58:55.100 That's happened throughout history.
01:58:55.920 Oh, look at that guy.
01:58:56.580 Look what he's doing.
01:58:57.440 Holy cow.
01:58:58.220 Why didn't I think of that?
01:58:59.800 You know what I mean?
01:59:00.280 There's plenty of times, too, where it doesn't work out.
01:59:02.740 Right.
01:59:03.160 Right?
01:59:03.640 Yeah.
01:59:03.960 But that is your lot in life.
01:59:06.340 It's your role in your own existence is to figure that out.
01:59:11.220 It's not for some elite to figure it out for you.
01:59:13.400 Can I just tell you something?
01:59:16.220 I've always made fun of, you know what, natural selection.
01:59:20.280 Why do these people, why do these people who believe in natural selection, why are they
01:59:26.060 trying to tape monkey tails onto people?
01:59:28.400 You know, why do we have all these warnings like, don't use snowblower on roof?
01:59:31.600 Right.
01:59:31.760 Did I tell you this?
01:59:32.400 No.
01:59:33.460 Two winters ago, the snow was so high, it was above the roof line.
01:59:38.960 And I get an email from the guy who's trying to get the snow off the roof.
01:59:45.180 And he sends me an email of just these two holes at the end of the roof because he was
01:59:52.720 using the snowblower on the roof to remove the snow and he got, he passed the roof and
01:59:56.940 they just went down into the, all the way to the ground.
01:59:59.940 And I'm like, oh my God.
02:00:01.620 You're the guy.
02:00:02.340 I'm the guy.
02:00:03.120 I'm the guy.
02:00:03.920 Don't use snowblower on the roof.
02:00:05.340 I get it now.
02:00:06.700 I get it.
02:00:07.500 Well, but I mean, the snow broke his fall, so it's okay.
02:00:11.940 Yeah.
02:00:12.060 He was fine.
02:00:12.460 He was fine.
02:00:12.960 He was fine.
02:00:13.680 I worried about the snowblower myself.
02:00:15.300 He was ripped up in the snowblower and the snowblower now doesn't work.
02:00:18.700 Separate hole.
02:00:19.260 Yes.
02:00:19.600 Separate hole.
02:00:20.040 Totally separate.
02:00:20.520 Separate hole.
02:00:21.220 Yeah.
02:00:21.560 Yeah.
02:00:21.860 Yeah.
02:00:22.160 Yeah.
02:00:22.300 Yeah.
02:00:22.500 Yeah.
02:00:23.020 So, I mean, that is, that is the, the problem with all of this is, and that is, I mean,
02:00:30.380 look at how they treat Donald Trump and look how they treat Donald Trump supporters.
02:00:34.180 Those people are just too stupid.
02:00:38.000 I don't think the, I don't think the other side is stupid.
02:00:42.080 I think they're wrong.
02:00:43.680 I think there are people on both sides that are absolutely evil.
02:00:47.100 They know exactly what they're doing.
02:00:48.720 They're all in it for their own power, their own control, and they don't care about people.
02:00:54.440 I think that that's a reality on both sides.
02:00:58.560 But I don't think they're stupid.
02:01:00.080 I actually say all the time, I think they're genius.
02:01:03.080 The way they have pulled all of this off is genius.
02:01:08.020 And I think that's, I think that's only like that because we're busy building things.
02:01:14.780 They're spending their whole life in a think tank.
02:01:18.080 They're spending their whole life in a university.
02:01:21.200 We go out, we take the university, we take the knowledge that we gained from school, no
02:01:25.440 matter when you stopped.
02:01:26.560 And we go out and we try to apply that.
02:01:28.560 And we build something.
02:01:30.440 They are just think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think.
02:01:33.660 How do we destroy?
02:01:35.120 Think, think, think, think, think, think, think.
02:01:36.580 How do we destroy?
02:01:38.900 And then they twist that and pervert that into, no, I'm actually helping.
02:01:45.560 No, you're destroying.
02:01:48.400 You're destroying.
02:01:49.140 There is help to some degree.
02:01:53.360 And then it becomes destruction.
02:01:55.080 And it becomes destruction when you just think you know what's right, what's wrong, and everybody
02:02:00.520 else is wrong.
02:02:01.660 It becomes destruction when you think you are better than other people, that you know
02:02:08.700 so much more that you should tell others exactly how they should live their life.
02:02:13.360 You know, the problem with, for the left, with preachers, they see that and they're like,
02:02:19.180 who's that to say that's the way you should live their life?
02:02:21.740 It's some fake God.
02:02:23.520 What's your God?
02:02:25.380 Seriously.
02:02:26.000 Because you preach to me all the time exactly how bad of a person I am because I don't believe
02:02:31.260 in X, Y, or Z.
02:02:33.940 Well, what's your God?
02:02:35.960 Is it just you that can tell me that I'm an evil person because I won't accept your truth?
02:02:46.660 I mean, you know, at some point you have to say, look, I disagree with you, but you have
02:02:51.900 a right.
02:02:52.700 Otherwise, it just ends up in eliminating people.
02:02:56.600 So, you know, when I was growing up, people said this all the time, all the time.
02:03:03.360 I don't agree with you, but I agree with your right to say whatever it is that you believe.
02:03:08.940 I'll fight to the death for your right to believe.
02:03:11.180 That's when we all believed in the Bill of Rights.
02:03:14.680 When we believe in the Bill of Rights, and that's what brings us together, those protected
02:03:20.660 freedoms for you to say what you believe, not to destroy, not to kill, not to burn, but
02:03:29.120 to say what you believe and not force others to believe it, that's when we get along.
02:03:38.440 Because we have a free exchange of ideas.
02:03:40.340 You know what?
02:03:40.660 Convince me.
02:03:41.420 You know, Bob, for years I thought you were crazy, but you know what?
02:03:44.800 I think you're right.
02:03:48.020 That's how the world gets together.
02:03:49.420 That's not what the current group of elites wants to do.
02:03:56.780 And it's proven by just that poll, just by that information about, you know, they don't
02:04:03.840 want anybody to have ID, yet I'll bet you those are the same people that want us to have
02:04:08.780 the national real ID that want a database of everybody's name into a federal bank.
02:04:17.060 I'll bet you those same people, no, you can't have an ID to vote, but we need all of your
02:04:22.200 information in a central database in Washington, D.C.
02:04:25.680 Guarantee you, same people.
02:04:29.420 There's a big difference between panic and preparation.
02:04:32.340 Panic is what happens after the shelves are empty, after the power has gone out, after
02:04:37.540 you realize DoorDash isn't coming.
02:04:39.440 Wait a minute, what?
02:04:40.140 What's that about DoorDash?
02:04:41.760 Preparation, on the other hand, happens right now, and nobody makes it easier than my Patriot

02:05:36.020 And if we don't read it, we'll live it.
02:05:38.600 Stay sharp, friends.
02:05:43.020 Glenn Beck returns in a GIF.
02:05:45.320 So there's a new poll out about Donald Trump's approval ratings, and it is not good.
02:06:12.920 It is not good with independents, especially.
02:06:16.820 Yes.
02:06:17.400 He is.
02:06:18.720 He's now minus 22 among independents.
02:06:22.780 And on the economy, this is the part, because he's always had good ratings on the economy,
02:06:26.520 even when he wasn't a popular president.
02:06:29.340 In January, he was plus one among independents, and he is now minus 29.
02:06:35.020 Ow.
02:06:35.220 It is the way, his economic, this is Harry Anton, his economic net approval with independents
02:06:42.400 at this point in a presidency is so low, it has no historical analogy.
02:06:46.440 Oh my gosh.
02:06:48.260 Now, again, just because you usually get that sort of honeymoon period, which seemed like
02:06:53.120 he had there at the beginning.
02:06:55.220 I think he had more of a honeymoon period than most presidents.
02:06:58.280 Most presidents get a, ah, you know, give him a break.
02:07:00.580 There was enthusiasm, I would say.
02:07:03.420 Enthusiasm all across the board, with an exception of, you know, the diehard Bernie Sanders.
02:07:08.340 Of course.
02:07:09.620 And, but he had enthusiasm.
02:07:11.620 He's got to turn this around.
02:07:14.000 This has got.
02:07:14.580 And he can.
02:07:14.880 And it's just, it's not easy.
02:07:16.860 It is important to at least know what the floor looks like.
02:07:20.820 Congress has to do it.
02:07:23.440 If you missed any of the show today, we, we talked about, you know, what Trump has done
02:07:28.460 to turn it around, but he needs to turn the pressure up on Congress now to do the rest
02:07:32.620 with tax cuts and regulation.
02:07:34.260 It has to be done.
02:07:36.740 We also, by the way, talked about, uh, Bezos and his phallic, uh, phallic ship to space,
02:07:42.380 uh, with the women screaming all the way.
02:07:46.620 Uh, weird.
02:07:48.080 What a weird, so weird.
02:07:49.340 What a weird time to be alive.
02:07:51.160 Really is.
02:07:51.880 It really is a strange time.
02:07:53.080 It is.
02:07:53.340 That guy, a billionaire.
02:07:54.980 And you know, that's why he built that rocket to look like that.
02:07:58.760 It would be like, you know, and honestly, you think of Elon Musk as the guy who likes
02:08:02.940 to make jokes like that, which he does.
02:08:05.280 He does.
02:08:05.940 No, I think, I think, I think Bezos might not have been full-fledged, bad, crack, crazy
02:08:10.780 and, you know, and then I don't know what he's taking, but, you know, he's probably taking
02:08:14.240 some live forever kind of, you know, supplements.
02:08:18.080 Yeah.
02:08:18.640 You know, I don't have sex forever.
