The Glenn Beck Program - The US Has Been in Decline. Can Tariffs Bring Renewal？｜ Guests： Stephen Moore & Hiram Sasser ｜ 4⧸3⧸25

00:00:00.000 When I found out my friend got a great deal on a wool coat from Winners,

00:00:03.760 I started wondering,

00:00:05.460 is every fabulous item I see from Winners?

00:00:08.520 Like that woman over there with the designer jeans. 1.00

00:00:11.240 Are those from Winners?

00:00:12.760 Ooh, or those beautiful gold earrings.

00:00:15.240 Did she pay full price?

00:00:16.580 Or that leather tote?

00:00:17.580 Or that cashmere sweater?

00:00:18.820 Or those knee-high boots?

00:00:20.260 That dress?

00:00:21.040 That jacket?

00:00:21.720 Those shoes?

00:00:22.380 Is anyone paying full price for anything?

00:00:25.800 Stop wondering.

00:00:26.980 Start winning.

00:00:27.900 Winners.

00:00:28.480 Find fabulous for less.

00:00:30.000 Let me talk to you about Ammo Squared.

00:00:31.740 Welcome to the future.

00:00:33.760 If you're the type of person who likes having a stockpile of ammunition, I am.

00:00:38.400 And unless you own your own warehouse and have a ton of disposable income at any given moment,

00:00:42.780 it's not easy to do.

00:00:43.960 So let me give you something that will really help you.

00:00:46.720 There's a company in Idaho called Ammo Squared.

00:00:49.280 And since 2015, they have helped over 80,000 of their members automatically stockpile ammunition.

00:00:56.060 You just sign up, pick what ammunition you want from over 70 different calibers, set an automatic buying budget, and set up shipping.

00:01:05.440 Over time, your ammo will accumulate, and Ammo Squared will store it in their climate-controlled warehouse until you want them to ship it.

00:01:12.380 There are no minimums, no extra fees, which means it's perfect for small budgets or for anybody who wants to build up a stockpile, which I just think is really, really smart.

00:01:23.100 It's the easiest way to prepare without any of the hassle.

00:03:16.440 When times get down, gotta face the dog and embrace the fire.

00:03:22.360 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:03:26.560 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:32.460 Hello, America.

00:03:33.840 Today, we're going to talk a lot about the tariffs and what they mean to you.

00:03:38.740 You can expect your grocery bill to jump about 5%.

00:03:42.320 If you're spending about $150 a week, that's going to be now $157 a week,

00:03:47.880 which is not easy for the average American to do.

00:03:51.160 We're already struggling.

00:03:52.660 You're an average American.

00:03:53.820 It's hard for you to pay for the grocery bill.

00:03:56.880 So another $7 a week.

00:03:59.500 That's according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.

00:04:02.020 We're going to get into some of this, but I want to tell you why it's happening.

00:04:07.100 Because it is a choice of pain now or pain later.

00:04:13.080 And I'll show you what the choice is before us.

00:04:16.340 And we're also going to go through everything that it means to you and your budget and your family all this hour.

00:04:23.380 So stand by first.

00:04:24.440 Let me tell you about Rough Greens.

00:04:25.680 If I dared you, if I double dog dared you, would you eat a bowl of cereal that had been sitting outside for a year?

00:04:32.300 I mean, I know.

00:04:34.760 Uh-uh.

00:04:35.340 I wouldn't.

00:04:36.240 I wouldn't.

00:04:36.780 Um, now your dog might eat it.

00:04:39.740 After all, he eats kibble food and that sits on a shelf or has to sit on a shelf for years without changing.

00:04:45.160 So here's the thing.

00:04:46.480 Real food, it spoils.

00:04:48.280 It goes bad.

00:04:49.960 Processed food just sits there full of weird fillers and cooked beyond the point of usefulness as any kind of food.

00:04:57.060 What will bring your dog's food back to life?

00:04:59.860 Rough Greens.

00:05:00.620 You just dip a little scooper into it and you sprinkle it over your dog's food and presto chango,

00:05:06.120 you've got all kinds of vitamins and minerals and probiotics and antioxidants and everything else

00:05:10.120 that is good for you and good for your dog so he can have a happy, healthy life.

00:05:28.260 All right.

00:05:29.180 Let me get straight to the point on, uh, and I, I, I hesitated.

00:05:33.900 I didn't know where to start today.

00:05:35.360 Do I start with the pain that is coming or do I start with a true, true story about the

00:05:42.440 pain that is coming either way so you can then take all of the facts and put them together

00:05:48.760 and go, okay, which pain do I want?

00:05:51.260 So I'm going to start with that.

00:05:53.040 I'm going to show you the two choices that are in front of us.

00:05:55.600 The United States and the rest of the Western world are at a crossroads, um, today.

00:06:02.680 And Donald Trump is the only one that is actually addressing this.

00:06:07.060 Everything else, every other politician has not told you these things.

00:06:13.300 The choices that we are going to make today will shape the future for generations to come.

00:06:19.000 The American people elected Donald Trump in 2024.

00:06:23.600 Why?

00:06:24.920 Because for nearly 20 years, the right track, wrong track indicator, you know, that poll,

00:06:30.320 it's been underwater for 20 years.

00:06:33.060 Plus, more people are feeling that we're on the wrong track than the right one.

00:06:38.080 Even in the latest polls, like the March, 2025 Gallup survey shows the highest right track

00:06:45.160 number in years, but it's only at 42%.

00:06:49.500 So that means 58% say we're still on the wrong track.

00:06:54.460 And I think that's because we all sense it.

00:06:57.140 We know it.

00:06:57.820 We see, we're not believing that our kids are going to have a brighter future than we had.

00:07:02.220 Um, and we know it.

00:07:03.860 It's just, it's in the air.

00:07:05.500 We know we're a declining civilization.

00:07:08.680 Okay.

00:07:10.240 We also know what we've been doing is not working.

00:07:14.500 It's not working when you have a Republican.

00:07:16.340 It's not working when you have a Democrat.

00:07:18.700 That's why Donald Trump was put in because instinctively, we know this isn't working.

00:07:25.480 Let's try something different.

00:07:27.960 Now, our spending is out of control.

00:07:30.440 Our kids don't have the promise of a better life that we used to.

00:07:33.820 Our cities are decaying.

00:07:35.020 Crime is going up.

00:07:35.960 And much of the leadership in the West, including the Democratic Party here, definitely those in the left, certain Republicans, the global elites, like the World Economic Forum.

00:07:46.520 All they've been doing, and hear me closely, because here's choice number one, is managing our decline.

00:07:53.420 They no longer believe that this system of freedom and capitalism and everything else works.

00:08:01.440 That's why they've tried to change everything.

00:08:04.140 That's why the World Economic Forum is doing what it's doing.

00:08:07.060 They don't believe this works.

00:08:08.960 So they are managing our decline.

00:08:11.120 We've slowly been getting worse and worse and worse, and the average American, I'm convinced, doesn't want this.

00:08:18.460 I don't want this.

00:08:20.180 So let me lay out the choices that are in front of us and the stakes.

00:08:25.720 Okay.

00:08:27.460 The everyday person wants a better future for their children.

00:08:31.600 But let's face the reality of where we are.

00:08:36.440 The U.S. national debt is at $35 trillion as of today.

00:08:41.780 The annual deficit is averaging $1.5 trillion over the past decade.

00:08:48.360 That's 100% of every dollar, every penny that the United States makes.

00:08:53.980 That hasn't been seen since World War II.

00:08:59.020 We're now spending over a trillion dollars a year just on interest payments.

00:09:05.360 That's more than we spend on education and defense.

00:09:09.960 And remember, we're way number one in the entire world on both of those things.

00:09:16.600 It's not sustainable.

00:09:18.600 You know it, and I know it.

00:09:20.300 But the lies from the politicians on both sides have been,

00:09:24.220 Oh, you know what?

00:09:24.900 We're going to figure this out.

00:09:25.820 No, we're going to get better.

00:09:27.120 It hasn't gotten better.

00:09:28.460 None of it gets better.

00:09:29.660 It only gets worse.

00:09:30.780 And we're seeing it now in the decay of our cities, of our institutions, of our children's education.

00:09:39.020 We even see it in depression levels.

00:09:42.200 Okay?

00:09:42.440 People are not feeling like it's a bright future in front of them.

00:09:45.460 The International Monetary Fund warned in 2024 that the unchecked debt could lead to a fiscal crisis within a decade.

00:09:54.380 Boy, that's positive.

00:09:56.340 Spiking inflation, interest rates, and leaving our kids with a hollowed-out economy.

00:10:02.600 Do you want that?

00:10:04.860 The promise of a better life in the West is fading.

00:10:09.440 Do you look over at Europe and see what's happening in Europe and go,

00:10:12.320 You know what?

00:10:12.760 They're on the right track.

00:10:13.540 Do you know what?

00:10:15.080 Germany's going to be around for a while. 0.99

00:10:17.500 England, no rush to get over to England to see, you know, jolly old England,

00:10:21.600 because they're going to be like that for a long time.

00:10:23.640 I don't feel that way.

00:10:24.780 Do you?

00:10:27.120 In 1990, 60% of 30-year-olds earned more than their parents did at the same age.

00:10:34.440 That's all adjusted for inflation.

00:10:36.260 1990.

00:10:37.380 By 2019, that number was 50%.

00:10:40.820 That's according to a study from the National Bureau of Economic Research.

00:10:44.980 Today, it's lower.

00:10:47.180 Our kids are facing stagnant wages, growing at 3.5% a year.

00:10:52.040 That's barely above the 2.4% inflation.

00:10:55.860 Housing, the median home price now is $420,000.

00:11:01.220 That's six times the median income, according to the National Association of Realtors.

00:11:09.680 It used to be a three-to-one ratio that we had in the 1980s.

00:11:13.980 Our cities are crumbling.

00:11:16.640 2023, the American Society of Civil Engineers gave the U.S. infrastructure a C-grade.

00:11:23.220 How many times have we had an infrastructure package?

00:11:25.280 Are we doing anything that's real?

00:11:28.940 No.

00:11:30.420 Do you realize how bad just our air traffic control system is?

00:11:36.700 It's like from the Soviet era.

00:11:40.640 They're estimating a $2.6 trillion investment gap over the next decade.

00:11:46.920 Homelessness is up 18% since 2019.

00:11:50.760 650,000 people on the streets every single night.

00:11:55.960 Crime in major cities in Chicago, Philadelphia.

00:11:59.080 Violent crime rates up 5% since 2019.

00:12:03.180 Leadership in both the U.S. and across the West.

00:12:07.040 They're more focused on globalist agendas than they are any of these problems.

00:12:12.660 And all of their agenda items make these problems worse.

00:12:16.760 Agree or disagree?

00:12:20.760 The Great Reset.

00:12:22.040 All of that rhetoric pushed centralized control and sustainabilities over your individual liberty.

00:12:30.580 And that has caused massive distrust.

00:12:34.720 So as the Democratic Party's focus on expanding social programs,

00:12:39.520 they have added $6 trillion to our debt since 2010.

00:12:45.260 Some Republicans have gone along.

00:12:47.260 Why are they expanding this cushion for homelessness and everything else?

00:12:53.600 Because they are managing the decline.

00:12:57.840 We're going to have all these people out of work.

00:12:59.680 We're going to have all these people.

00:13:00.540 And so it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

00:13:03.740 You'll have to listen to the whole show today because in hour three,

00:13:06.500 I'm going to show you what we need to be doing for the future.

00:13:09.380 And it's a speech that I would love the president to hear and give.

00:13:13.300 But this isn't a conspiracy.

00:13:16.080 All this stuff that's going on, this is all data.

00:13:19.200 The WEF's own 2023 report called for global governance to address climate and inequality.

00:13:26.920 They're going in a different direction.

00:13:29.960 68% of Americans in a Pew Research poll this last year prioritize national sovereignty over global cooperation.

00:13:38.140 So the people in these countries, especially ours, want the individual sovereignty.

00:13:45.640 But the elites want global control.

00:13:50.240 People feel managed, not led.

00:13:52.840 And that's true.

00:13:53.720 We are being managed to our own demise or decline.

00:13:57.420 So all of these things that are coming out, I'm so frustrated because all the things that were considered conspiracy theories

00:14:05.080 that dragged my name through the mud for I don't know how many years.

00:14:09.780 They have all been dismissed.

00:14:11.260 I've been dismissed.

00:14:12.160 Everything else.

00:14:12.860 You've been dismissed because you knew these things to be true.

00:14:16.520 It turns out they're all true.

00:14:19.160 Twitter files revealed government pressure on social media.

00:14:22.740 Censor speech confirmed by court documents in Missouri versus Biden.

00:14:27.420 The 2020 lab leak theory about COVID-19.

00:14:30.720 Misinformation.

00:14:31.740 You're dangerous. 1.00

00:14:32.480 You want to just kill grandparents if you believe that. 0.99

00:14:35.740 Now, Department of Energy, the FBI, everybody is saying, no, no, no. 0.94

00:14:39.700 It's worse than what they were saying.

00:14:43.360 And I want to make sure.

00:14:44.820 There are some evil people, I think.

00:14:46.920 Some evil politicians, evil corporations, et cetera, et cetera.

00:14:50.580 Most of them, I think, just have self-serving motives or some of them have self-serving motives.

00:14:59.000 I think most of them actually just are going along with it.

00:15:01.700 They're just going along because that's what humans do.

00:15:04.160 Look at COVID.

00:15:05.440 How many people just like, I don't know.

00:15:06.920 I'm just going to go along with it.

00:15:08.000 I'll wear the mask.

00:15:12.380 Or they actually genuinely believe that the principles that built our nation and built the West no longer work.

00:15:21.100 But I don't buy that.

00:15:22.820 And neither do you.

00:15:23.780 And if they thought you were with them, they wouldn't be hiding all of their actions or silencing any dissent.

00:15:33.520 They know you're not for it.

00:15:36.540 So they just need to get that decline locked in.

00:15:41.120 And once that decline is locked in, and we are very close, that's why it's going to hurt so much when we turn this ship.

00:15:47.360 Because they're not going to give up.

00:15:50.880 They need that decline.

00:15:53.780 2024 YouGov poll found 62% of Americans believe free speech is under threat.

00:16:00.040 55% thinks elites are out of touch.

00:16:03.300 You have Millay, whose election saw 56% voter support.

00:16:08.860 What is he doing?

00:16:09.740 He's turning the ship.

00:16:11.660 Now others are saying, wait, we've got to eject all of this stuff that we've been doing for the last 100 years and go back to the principles.

00:16:19.580 Okay, because centralized and unchecked spending and globalized control just doesn't work.

00:16:27.220 It doesn't.

00:16:27.920 Okay, Bill of Rights, free markets, individual liberty, the rule of law.

00:16:35.760 These have been treated as like curiosities, not our bedrock anymore.

00:16:40.980 They're just like, oh, that's cute.

00:16:42.020 Look at that.

00:16:43.420 No, it's not cute.

00:16:44.480 That's what built us in the first place.

00:16:47.620 You know, 45% of Americans now self-center because they have a fear of backlash.

00:16:53.240 They don't say what they believe.

00:16:55.100 45% of us don't say what we believe because we're afraid it'll come back to haunt us.

00:17:02.840 The Second Amendment.

00:17:04.960 40% of Americans live in states where you can't have a gun or it's so restrictive you don't buy a gun.

00:17:12.060 The Tenth Amendment reserves the power to the states, yet federal spending now accounts for 25% of every dollar of our GDP.

00:17:19.660 Wow.

00:17:23.940 So where does this leave us?

00:17:26.200 Well, let me pause and I'll take you to the tariffs and deregulation and the tax cuts.

00:17:31.300 All the things that everybody's freaking out about.

00:17:33.580 And honestly, I am concerned about it, too, just as much as you are.

00:17:37.480 I am concerned about it.

00:17:39.940 But I want to take you there because I want to show you the choice that is in front of us.

00:17:44.880 Let me first tell you about my Patriot supply.

00:17:46.920 I just got back early this morning from time traveling to the future.

00:17:51.560 And wow, it's not good.

00:17:55.400 It's not good.

00:17:56.800 Donald Trump turns out to be an amazing president.

00:17:59.180 But the AI Donald Trump, not really.

00:18:01.840 It wasn't necessarily good.

00:18:03.600 Power grids failing.

00:18:05.840 Grocery store shelves empty.

00:18:07.500 Why?

00:18:08.100 Because we didn't make this turn.

00:18:10.780 Americans didn't understand. 1.00

00:18:13.200 So how are you doing in the future?

00:18:15.360 Well, it turns out you were fine because you stocked up on the long-term emergency food and the power supplies from my Patriot supply.

00:18:21.920 So you're riding out the apocalypse just fine.

00:18:24.380 You even told me it was kind of fun, which I'll admit was a little weird hearing from you.

00:18:28.460 But your future told me, hey, remind the past you to get my Patriot supply.

00:18:36.180 So here I am doing that.

00:18:37.480 You're welcome.

00:18:38.200 Your future self thanks me already.

00:18:40.180 Already thanked me earlier, which actually hasn't happened yet.

00:18:44.240 Don't wait.

00:18:45.260 Get your emergency food now.

00:18:46.720 Their new Grid Doctor 3300, an amazing solar generator with EMP Intercept technology.

00:18:52.240 Now at mypatriotsupply.com.

00:18:54.100 Put the power in your own hands at mypatriotsupply.com.

00:18:58.780 10 seconds.

00:18:59.740 Station ID.

00:19:00.160 Okay, the 10% tariffs on imports, 54% on Chinese goods, yada, yada, yada. 0.51

00:19:18.800 This is all to aim to bring parity in the world, to have us stop being raped.

00:19:25.860 And when you saw those charts that he put out yesterday, if you did, it shows how are we possibly the bad guys here?

00:19:32.660 Because we're not charging anything that they are charging.

00:19:36.860 Nothing.

00:19:37.420 It's not even close.

00:19:38.420 However, it's going to raise your price.

00:19:40.940 Groceries, 5%.

00:19:42.140 Cars, $1,000 to $2,000.

00:19:44.600 That's according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.

00:19:47.140 It's going to be a bumpy road.

00:19:48.820 And saboteurs are among us.

00:19:50.900 Entrenched bureaucrats, globalist elites, the people who don't believe that American principles actually work.

00:19:57.940 There are some in our own party, the Republican Party, if you happen to be a Republican.

00:20:01.900 The question is, do they accept the reality of where we are and the choice in front of us?

00:20:18.800 Do they have a better and bold idea that they'd like to share with the rest of the class?

00:20:25.880 Because the choice in front of us is really stark.

00:20:28.720 Do we manage our decline or do we take a hard path to rebuild?

00:20:35.200 One of the two.

00:20:37.440 Decline means more debt, projected to hit 122% of GDP by 2035.

00:20:43.320 More decay, a future where our kids do not inherit a strong nation, but a much, much weaker nation if it's still a nation.

00:20:51.880 And the hard path means short-term pain, higher prices, market volatility, big time.

00:20:58.720 You know, I don't know if you saw the market dropped.

00:21:01.400 S&P 500 dropped 2.8% after the announcement yesterday.

00:21:05.000 And the risk of a trade war, which is real and not good.

00:21:10.080 Okay.

00:21:12.160 Those are the bad things.

00:21:14.420 But what else could it mean?

00:21:16.320 Donald Trump is betting on this is the chance of renewal.

00:21:21.880 This is our last chance to change direction.

00:21:25.520 If tariffs work, U.S. manufacturing will grow.

00:21:29.380 And I want to talk about that later.

00:21:31.500 Jobs are flat.

00:21:33.000 12.9 million right now.

00:21:35.300 Could raise by a million in five years with deregulation and everything else.

00:21:40.860 Farmers could see a $16 billion boost as food production rises 10% in the next four years.

00:21:47.760 Tax cuts, like reducing the 22% rate to 20, could save you $1,600 a year.

00:21:53.980 But that requires Congress.

00:21:55.360 And it's not just about economics.

00:21:57.040 More importantly, this is about our future.

00:21:59.800 Does America chart a new course?

00:22:03.160 Our kids need to be healthy, educated, and grounded in truth, not fantasy.

00:22:07.740 Right now, 25% of our kids are obese.

00:22:11.600 15% of 15-year-olds can't read.

00:22:16.040 They need to know the difference between right and wrong.

00:22:18.820 Yet 40% of Gen Z believes the truth is subjective.

00:22:23.400 The need for resilience, the kind that comes from failing and getting back up, not from participation trophies.

00:22:30.120 20-24, University of Michigan study found 60% of young adults lack coping skills.

00:22:37.180 60%!

00:22:38.980 That's up from 45 from 10 years ago.

00:22:43.540 We cannot hand our children a broken system and then also not give them any skills to fix it or the courage to try.

00:22:53.260 So here's the question.

00:22:54.960 Are you willing to pay the price today for a chance at their success?

00:23:00.260 The road is going to be tough.

00:23:02.020 The dangers ahead are real and they're tough.

00:23:05.280 Maybe a recession.

00:23:06.520 Unemployment.

00:23:07.880 I mean, it could grow.

00:23:09.580 The payoff could be bad.

00:23:12.620 But the payoff might be our only chance to survive.

00:23:16.420 It could be that we have a strong, leading America by 2030.

00:23:21.680 More jobs, less debt, cities revitalized, kids that can thrive.

00:23:26.500 You know, the Bill of Rights being our bedrock again.

00:23:30.060 Opportunity, self-reliance.

00:23:32.180 That's what's at stake.

00:23:34.640 We have to choose now.

00:23:36.100 Decline is very easy.

00:23:37.640 It's what we've been doing.

00:23:38.500 Just keep doing the same thing.

00:23:40.500 Renewal is going to be hard.

00:23:42.200 But that's what made us great in the first place.

00:23:44.860 I bet on our kids.

00:23:47.560 I bet on freedom.

00:23:48.760 I bet on the principles that built this nation.

00:23:52.300 But it's going to be a schlog.

00:23:53.780 It's going to be a fight.

00:23:55.860 But I don't know.

00:23:57.660 I think this is a fight worth having and doing.

00:24:04.200 This is Glenn Beck.

00:24:07.480 You know, my grandfather was the best storyteller ever.

00:24:11.620 You know, I don't know if your grandfather was a great storyteller.

00:24:14.680 The time when he got his first car.

00:24:16.820 The time he built his house all by himself.

00:24:18.620 When they actually did it.

00:24:20.180 Or that story he'd tell about the war whenever grandma wasn't around.

00:24:23.740 You know?

00:24:24.980 Those stories all exist.

00:24:26.780 But only in our memory now.

00:24:28.420 And as your family historian.

00:24:30.520 And if you're listening to this program, that's probably who you are.

00:24:33.780 You have the responsibility to pass those stories down to the next generation.

00:24:37.240 And our kids are not sitting at the dinner table listening to the old stories anymore.

00:24:41.480 In a similar vein, you have the responsibility to preserve all of the old memories from your family that you can.

00:24:47.760 Including the pictures, the old VHS videotapes.

00:24:50.740 And the best way I know to do that is Legacy Box.

00:24:53.420 It is incredibly easy.

00:25:34.800 Steven Moore was in the Rose Garden yesterday for Liberation Day.

00:25:48.320 He is a guy who has traditionally been against tariffs.

00:25:51.380 And this was very bold yesterday what the president did.

00:25:55.660 I am nervous about it.

00:25:57.340 I've had this conversation with the president.

00:25:58.960 I'm not a fan of tariffs.

00:26:00.660 But I think he's earned the right to.

00:26:03.360 I mean, he's the president.

00:26:04.320 Everybody elected him.

00:26:05.660 And everybody knew tariffs were his favorite word.

00:26:09.760 So he's got to do what he feels is best.

00:26:12.800 It could work.

00:26:13.840 It could lead to real trouble.

00:26:16.500 Steven Moore is with us now.

00:26:18.400 Hi, Steven.

00:26:18.880 How are you?

00:26:20.200 Hi, Glenn.

00:26:20.880 Good to be with you.

00:26:21.860 I was there yesterday.

00:26:23.060 And I agree 100% with what you just said.

00:26:25.940 This could work.

00:26:26.960 Or it could be a disaster.

00:26:29.920 And I think probably in the end of the day, I think it will work.

00:26:33.340 But, you know, the Dow futures are down another 1,000 points and the Nasdaq's crashing.

00:26:39.660 So, you know, the market is very negatively.

00:26:42.480 Does that actually matter in the short term that the Dow is down?

00:26:46.520 I mean, that's the company's, you know, I know that affects everybody's, you know, 401k and everything else.

00:26:52.240 But I think people right now are more concerned with, what is this going to cost me in groceries?

00:26:56.700 What is this going to cost me in gas?

00:26:59.120 So talk to me about that level.

00:27:03.300 Yeah.

00:27:03.900 So, I mean, the market does matter because it's a kind of forward-looking indicator of where the economy's headed.

00:27:09.520 But you're right.

00:27:10.000 Mostly what people care about is, you know, what will this mean for gas prices and what will it mean for going to the store and groceries?

00:27:16.780 And that's hard to predict.

00:27:19.120 Listen, I think my summary, and we talked about this the other day on your show, is that Trump is right that it is not a level playing field.

00:27:28.180 And it is true that these other countries have been ripping us off.

00:27:31.680 And, you know, I've been doing a lot of interviews, as you can imagine, over the last 24 hours on this.

00:27:36.500 And, you know, especially with a lot of the foreign press, like BBC and Australia and news and, you know, the French news agency.

00:27:44.740 And they're so indignant, you know, about, oh, my gosh, Donald Trump's causing a trade war.

00:27:49.080 I'm saying, wait a minute.

00:27:50.120 First of all, our tariffs are one-third as high as yours are.

00:27:52.580 So how is it Trump's causing a trade war?

00:27:54.760 I mean, you're the ones.

00:27:55.900 All you have to do is play by the rules.

00:27:57.460 Okay, so let me ask you that.

00:27:59.800 Because when he put out those charts, I was like, oh, my gosh, how are we possibly the bad guys?

00:28:05.280 But then I see on X something that said in a community note, no, that's not true.

00:28:10.460 They just made some calculation up, and that's not what we actually pay, which is true.

00:28:16.360 Those numbers that the Trump administration put out were a bit exaggerated.

00:28:20.860 They weren't exactly accurate.

00:28:22.820 But that doesn't negate the point that I was making, that they do charge a lot higher terrorists than we do.

00:28:32.300 We're the freest trade nation in the world.

00:28:34.020 Now, I happen to think that we benefit from that.

00:28:35.980 But here's the way I see it, Glenn.

00:28:38.540 If Trump can pull this off, and he may well, and he can get these other countries to do what they should do, both in terms of their own interests, but also in terms of treating the United States fairly, then it would work out really well.

00:28:52.640 In other words, it would benefit everybody.

00:28:54.400 We would have freer and fairer trade.

00:28:56.500 And the freedom to trade is at the core of what economics is all about.

00:29:00.500 If you and I trade, Glenn, and I give something to you and you give something to me, by definition, we're both better off.

00:29:07.200 And so I do hope that we – I hope that outcome happens.

00:29:11.060 But I'm nervous about it.

00:29:12.360 I think that we're already seeing – so, for example, the – I have about six or seven manufacturing companies that are part of my institute, and they're good supporters of what I do.

00:29:24.920 And they're frantic right now because they're saying, look, we get our aluminum from Vietnam.

00:29:32.020 We get our parts from Mexico.

00:29:34.580 I mean, our economy is highly globally integrated, and that makes it – it's the reason we have the most efficient economy in the world.

00:29:42.380 So now they're running into supply chain problems because they don't know if they can get the aluminum.

00:29:47.380 They don't know if they can get the parts.

00:29:48.760 So the factories are only running at, say, half capacity.

00:29:54.300 So there is going to be – I want to be clear about this.

00:29:57.040 There will be short-term pain, no doubt about it.

00:30:00.040 The question is, how long will that last, and when do we get to the good part where these other countries start cooperating and we create more jobs here in America?

00:30:08.100 Do you believe Europe when they say, fine, and we're going to unleash our own war back on you?

00:30:14.240 If that happens, then we're in a trade war, and that's really, really bad.

00:30:17.820 Do you believe –

00:30:18.600 Well, that's bad for everybody.

00:30:19.540 But it would be insane for the Europeans to do that because, listen, Trump – again, I said this on your show the other day, but I'll say it again.

00:30:27.200 But Trump is a master negotiator.

00:30:30.060 You have to read his book, The Art of the Deal.

00:30:32.500 By the way, I would recommend that to anybody in their 20s or 30s, you're getting your career started.

00:30:36.800 Read that book because Trump is so insightful in that book, and it's very simple, Glenn.

00:30:41.300 If you and I are at the negotiating table and we're negotiating something and you have leverage over me, you're probably going to win that negotiation, right?

00:30:49.140 And if I have leverage over you, I'm probably going to win the negotiation.

00:30:53.380 The United States has leverage.

00:30:55.020 We are the biggest economy in the world.

00:30:56.340 Every country in the world has to trade with the United States.

00:30:59.260 In other words, if China couldn't trade with the United States, their economy would go into a Great Depression.

00:31:04.020 You know, there's no way they could survive without access to America's market.

00:31:07.760 Trump understands that.

00:31:09.120 He's using that leverage and American power to force countries to do things they should do anyway.

00:31:15.400 What I'm here to tell you, though, is, boy, this could cause some – this could cause some pain.

00:31:19.980 I mean, we could – you know, people lose money in their 401ks.

00:31:22.920 They don't spend as much money.

00:31:24.240 Factories can't get their – you know, maybe workers get laid off.

00:31:27.100 Maybe prices rise.

00:31:28.320 Restaurants, yeah.

00:31:28.380 So there will be a short-term adjustment.

00:31:31.180 Stephen, what would you think our goal is here?

00:31:35.340 Because I saw the results of, you know, these tariffs being talked about.

00:31:39.040 Israel came out and said, well, we're wiping it to zero, right? 0.70

00:31:41.340 And, like, for me, that's a great outcome for this policy.

00:31:45.140 Yes.

00:31:45.560 I would love that.

00:31:46.540 But is that the actual goal of the policy?

00:31:48.600 Because if the policy is to bring jobs and manufacturing back here, if everyone wipes their tariffs to zero, which would be my preferred outcome, wouldn't affect that, right?

00:31:59.280 Like, what is the goal here?

00:32:00.200 It is – I mean, I think it's mostly to do just that so that we have a level playing field and that countries stop, quote, ripping us off, as the president would say.

00:32:11.760 And that would mean we would be able to – you know, for example, our agriculture industry, you know, we are the breadbasket of the world.

00:32:17.720 We have the most productive farmers.

00:32:19.480 We have the most productive farmland.

00:32:20.820 And we produce a lot of wheat and a lot of corn and a lot of barley and a lot of beef and dairy products.

00:32:27.660 And it is true. 0.71

00:32:28.360 A lot of these countries, you know, keep that out.

00:32:30.880 They won't – I mean, Canada does have very high tariffs on our agriculture products.

00:32:35.380 So imagine now Canada eliminates those tariffs.

00:32:39.940 Guess what?

00:32:40.420 We're going to have a lot more production here.

00:32:42.580 And our farmers are going to do a lot better.

00:32:44.980 Right.

00:32:45.180 But they're going to pay a heavier price because then their farmers are in trouble.

00:32:48.800 I mean, this is a very complex kind of situation.

00:32:51.840 Except that our farmers are much more – you know, that's the point.

00:32:54.800 We are the most – in a free trade world, we win.

00:32:58.140 Why?

00:32:58.700 Because we have the best technology.

00:33:00.960 We have the best workers.

00:33:02.040 We have the best, you know, CEOs of companies.

00:33:05.360 So we will continue to dominate the world economy in a free trade environment.

00:33:10.700 And that's what Trump is saying.

00:33:12.020 And there's no question that – you know, let me put it very simply.

00:33:16.300 You know, we import a lot of coffee beans from Brazil.

00:33:22.860 Why?

00:33:23.620 Because they have the best coffee beans, right?

00:33:25.440 Right.

00:33:25.660 We sell a lot of, let's say, microchips to them.

00:33:29.180 Why?

00:33:29.640 Because they don't make microchips, and we do, but they make good coffee.

00:33:33.060 I mean, that's the whole basis of what trade is about.

00:33:35.900 In countries, it's called – the term for this in economics is comparative advantage.

00:33:41.680 If you produce something really well, and I produce something very well, it makes sense

00:33:48.080 for not both of us to make both things.

00:33:49.900 You make, you know, the apple – you grow the apples, and I grow the bananas.

00:33:54.720 And then we're both better off, and we trade.

00:33:57.040 And that's the essence of economics.

00:33:58.580 And we don't want to be Fortress America, although, you know, we could be.

00:34:03.200 You know, the United States is the biggest market in the world by far.

00:34:06.520 And one of the things that has made America – many, many things have made America the

00:34:10.740 most powerful and prosperous country in the world.

00:34:13.000 But one of them – think about this, Glenn.

00:34:15.180 The United States is one giant free trade zone.

00:34:18.620 You know, South Carolina can't put a tariff on North Carolina, right?

00:34:22.740 And so that's one of the reasons we've – you know, we are so prosperous.

00:34:28.140 You know, the apples from Washington State are produced in Washington, and then, you

00:34:32.180 know, the microchips are made in Texas.

00:34:36.720 Stephen, I was saying just a minute ago that what people have to understand is there

00:34:41.980 is half of the world – Western world, maybe more than half – is just managing the

00:34:47.780 decline of the West.

00:34:49.540 That's what they're doing.

00:34:50.220 That's right.

00:34:50.340 And Donald Trump is standing up and saying, no, I don't believe that.

00:34:55.540 I think we need to go the 100% opposite direction.

00:34:59.420 We need to reinvent ourself.

00:35:01.240 And so he is shedding all of these things from the last 100 years because they have to

00:35:07.540 be shed.

00:35:08.860 But especially Europe and anybody who's in with the WEF, they are saying, well, but we're

00:35:16.300 never going back to a free society with, you know, the Bill of Rights and all of these

00:35:21.520 things.

00:35:22.120 It's got to be a globally run, managed society.

00:35:26.660 And so that's the real choice here.

00:35:28.540 It's not whether I pay more for my eggs or my car now, although that's the way it'll feel

00:35:34.680 to a lot of people.

00:35:35.500 It is actually, is there a free and leading America in five years, or do we just continue

00:35:44.740 down the managed decline?

00:35:47.220 Look, I'm very bullish on the United States.

00:35:50.140 I really am.

00:35:51.300 I mean, we dominated the Internet age.

00:35:54.240 We created these incredible companies like Google, Amazon, NVIDIA, these companies that

00:36:02.140 became trillion dollar companies, you know, just our Magnificent Seven have more market

00:36:06.460 value than every single company in Europe combined.

00:36:09.920 So we have so dominated the technology sector.

00:36:12.920 The big next thing, you see, if I have one problem with Trump is saying, what it does,

00:36:18.600 manufacturing jobs, of course, we want a manufacturing sector. 0.99

00:36:21.460 We don't want manufacturing workers to lose their jobs.

00:36:23.560 Of course not.

00:36:24.200 But the future, who's going to lead the world in the next 25 years is robotics, artificial

00:36:31.180 intelligence, and all that thing.

00:36:32.620 We have to win that war like we won.

00:36:35.440 We totally dominated the Internet age.

00:36:37.940 And the way we did that, by the way, is we deregulated.

00:36:41.280 We took away the lawsuits.

00:36:43.140 We took away the taxes and said, go at it.

00:36:45.300 It was like the Wild West.

00:36:46.700 Remember in the early 90s when the Internet was first there?

00:36:50.000 And we we spawned thousands and thousands of companies.

00:36:54.120 I want to I'm worried a little bit that Trump is looking in the rearview mirror.

00:36:57.820 I'm on the board of a company.

00:36:59.900 I think I may have mentioned this to you.

00:37:01.780 That is that we we build houses with robots. 0.93

00:37:06.440 It's the most incredible thing.

00:37:07.940 I mean, robots build the houses and we can do it at 40 percent less expensive, 40 percent

00:37:13.160 less cost, et cetera, et cetera.

00:37:14.900 But, you know, what does that mean about the future of construction jobs?

00:37:17.880 You know, maybe they're not going to be around because these robots are going to build.

00:37:21.580 So I want to make sure we're creating the jobs of the future, not the jobs of the past.

00:37:26.420 I have to tell you, Stephen, it's so amazing you said this.

00:37:28.780 I have I worked on something last night based on a question that Stu asked me yesterday on

00:37:33.900 what what should we be building?

00:37:35.860 And I want to send this to you some of my notes for my monologue in hour three today.

00:37:40.260 I'd love to get your opinion before I go on the air with it to see if I'm missing or

00:37:44.540 if I'm on on the right track, because I am exactly the same place.

00:37:48.880 We if it means bringing back old jobs and we're like Pittsburgh is going to come back

00:37:53.240 with a steel industry, we're just going to build another declining Pittsburgh.

00:37:58.000 Exactly.

00:37:58.820 Yep.

00:37:59.680 And that's why we know we need to make one of the biggest problems in our country.

00:38:03.860 It's something you and I have talked about over the years is our education system.

00:38:07.280 Yes, we're not producing kids that can read and do basic math.

00:38:12.180 We've got Houston.

00:38:13.700 We got a problem in this country.

00:38:15.140 We need the most skilled, most intelligent, best equipped workers in the world.

00:38:19.940 And we will continue to lead.

00:38:21.440 And look, I'm very, as I said, I'm bullish.

00:38:23.720 Europe is still living in the 20th century.

00:38:26.940 Oh, yeah.

00:38:27.340 They're barely in the 20th century.

00:38:30.060 None of it worked.

00:38:30.800 Right.

00:38:30.960 I mean, Germany has been in deindustrialized.

00:38:33.780 And that is by the choice of the elites.

00:38:38.120 Exactly.

00:38:39.140 Yeah.

00:38:39.600 I mean, they thought the future was windmills. 1.00

00:38:42.480 How stupid is that? 0.99

00:38:45.180 Well, Holland's been on that for a while. 1.00

00:38:51.320 Stephen, great to talk to you.

00:38:52.780 Thank you very much, my friend.

00:38:53.880 Appreciate it.

00:38:54.300 Thank you.

00:38:54.620 Bye bye.

00:38:55.580 All right.

00:38:56.180 Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

00:38:57.500 Time for Mr. Beck's famous pop quizzes.

00:38:59.600 Are you ready?

00:39:00.040 Here we go.

00:39:00.620 Get your pencils out.

00:39:01.560 It will be on the test.

00:39:02.300 If your phone company donates to groups that attack your value, should you A, keep paying

00:39:07.160 them anyway, B, pretend it's not happening, or C, make the switch to a company that shares

00:39:12.400 your values?

00:39:13.020 B sounds pretty good.

00:39:14.380 I mean, that's the one where I just ignore it?

00:39:16.120 Okay.

00:39:16.620 No.

00:39:16.900 No?

00:39:17.320 No.

00:39:17.700 That's not the.

00:39:18.580 Oh, okay.

00:39:19.140 Yeah.

00:39:19.740 Nice little dunce cap.

00:39:20.860 We're going to put Stu in in the corner.

00:39:23.100 A plus if you answered C.

00:39:25.200 Patriot Mobile stands for your values, and they will help to fund conservative causes.

00:39:30.140 And they fight for all of these things in person.

00:39:33.820 This is what they do.

00:39:35.340 By the way, my mom switched to Patriot Mobile last night.

00:39:37.860 Did she?

00:39:38.200 Last night.

00:39:38.600 She's on board.

00:39:39.440 Wow.

00:39:39.860 Yeah.

00:39:40.240 I don't know.

00:39:40.720 She apparently wanted to fund abortion all this time, but now I finally figured it out.

00:39:44.340 Well, if I were your mom, maybe.

00:40:01.400 This is Glenn Beck.

00:40:03.800 From Angel Studios, the studios behind Sound of Freedom, comes The King of Kings.

00:40:19.000 This is a new movie.

00:40:19.800 A father tells his son the greatest story ever told.

00:40:22.500 And what begins as a bedtime tale quickly becomes a life-changing journey.

00:40:27.320 Through a vivid imagination, the boy walks alongside Jesus, witnessing his miracles and facing his trials with him and understanding the ultimate sacrifice.

00:40:37.380 King of Kings invites us to rediscover the enduring power of hope, love, and redemption through the eyes of a child.

00:40:43.940 Got a great cast.

00:40:45.700 Pierce Brosnan's in this thing.

00:40:46.920 I mean, this is a great cast.

00:40:48.780 Ben Kingsley, Uma Thurman, Forrest Whitaker.

00:40:51.540 I mean, these are just to name a few.

00:40:53.280 The movie is also filled with beautiful animation, and it's the perfect movie to watch this Easter with the entire family.

00:41:00.680 You know the way Christian movies used to be?

00:41:02.740 They were terrible.

00:41:04.040 Yeah, kind of like Snow White is now?

00:41:05.740 Yes, kind of.

00:41:06.440 We've reversed places here.

00:41:07.880 Angel Studios has been a huge part of that, and they've proven that not only does it have to be that way anymore, you can actually make great Christian movies,

00:41:15.300 but they just keep pumping these things out, and they're fantastic.

00:41:17.880 I encourage you to see The King of Kings.

00:41:20.260 It's in theaters Friday, April 11th.

00:41:55.620 You're richer than you think.

00:41:56.680 You know, Steve, it was a really good point, and Stu asked me yesterday, when we're bringing jobs back with AI, what jobs are we bringing back?

00:42:15.740 Are we bringing back a bunch of jobs that are going to just be taking over by robots?

00:42:18.940 And I want you to know, when we're talking about the future, here's 1947, this is a newsreel, 1947, about the kitchen of the future.

00:42:28.800 Homes for those who want something better.

00:42:31.760 New homes, which we can expect to be the best products of the new scientific age, and at the lowest possible cost.

00:42:39.540 These sidewalls have no limitation as to style, size, or geographical location.

00:42:44.680 For example, this is the Woodbury Gardens development in Long Island, where wide use of asbestos cement shingles is made.

00:42:53.320 Uh-oh.

00:42:54.380 And here in the Southern Homes development, these colorful sidewalls add beauty to the community.

00:43:01.060 This contemporary home shows how modern asbestos materials can be adapted to any style or design.

00:43:07.900 Wow.

00:43:08.540 Notice how the asbestos cement sidewalls help add dignity and charm.

00:43:13.020 Dignity.

00:43:13.400 Dignity and charm.

00:43:14.300 Oh, gosh.

00:43:14.600 Isn't that great?

00:43:15.220 Our typical country went away from all that.

00:43:17.860 Sure.

00:43:18.440 We didn't want dignity or charm.

00:43:20.280 Nope.

00:43:21.580 Asbestos was banned in, what, the 1970s because, I don't know, it makes your lungs stop working.

00:43:28.740 Oh, well.

00:43:29.460 So.

00:43:30.300 But the beauty of the community.

00:43:31.820 No, it was dignity and charm.

00:43:33.180 Okay.

00:43:33.520 Not in your death.

00:43:35.080 But while your house had dignity and charm, your death was, no, I had no dignity to it at all.

00:43:41.360 So I want to be really careful.

00:43:43.160 When you look to the future, it's really easy to go, this is, here comes the jobs of the future.

00:43:49.440 But I've, I've really done some homework.

00:43:52.480 I mean, I've been following AI for a very long time and I've been talking bits and pieces about what we should be building.

00:43:59.300 And so I want to talk to you about that because when Donald Trump says, let's bring our jobs back, we should not be bringing steel jobs back.

00:44:07.000 That doesn't mean steel mills are not part of our future.

00:44:12.340 They should be.

00:44:13.040 But listen, it'll happen at the top of our three, right at the beginning of our three.

00:44:17.980 If you happen to be listening to the radio program or the top of three of the podcast today, stand by.

00:44:24.200 All right.

00:44:24.460 Going to talk about judges that are absolutely out of control and what can be done about it.

00:44:29.260 Next.

00:44:29.700 This is Glenn Beck.

00:44:38.540 What's the best steak you've ever had?

00:44:40.920 Do you remember?

00:44:41.740 Do you remember?

00:44:42.760 Can you see it in your mind?

00:44:43.920 Can you smell and taste it?

00:44:45.780 There it is right on your plate.

00:44:47.220 Now, imagine that, you know, that steak came from a herd of cattle raised on a small ranch right here in the United States.

00:44:54.180 Doesn't have a bunch of antibiotics or vaccines or anything else strange in it.

00:44:57.800 It's just good American grass fed grain finished beef.

00:47:07.140 that we talked about last night on our wednesday night special it was all about the out of control

00:47:12.540 judges that are they're all from the left this is all so well planned and coordinated it's really

00:47:20.460 sick because it's the same people that we have found since we were you know digging into the

00:47:24.920 tides foundation exactly the same people they're just wearing a different you know hello my name

00:47:31.100 is name tag but it's the same group of people what how do we stop them i have uh hyrum sasseron he's

00:47:39.320 from the first liberty institute he's a executive general counsel the judiciary is growing out of

00:47:46.520 control and what do we do about it constitutionally what can we do about it what should we do about

00:47:53.560 it also steve dace will join me this half hour so stand by first let me tell you god's word is very

00:47:58.740 clear when it comes to his relationship with the nation of israel he says in the scriptures

00:48:02.340 i will bless those who bless you well for years the fellowship of christians and jews has been working

00:48:08.480 to be a part of that blessing bringing aid and food and security to jewish families in crisis

00:48:12.880 this has been especially true over the past year and a half since the horrific hamas massacre of

00:48:18.280 october 7th and they've been able to do this because of help from people just like you right now jewish

00:48:23.580 people in israel and indeed around the world face anti-semitism war and persecution they need a way out

00:48:29.620 of the struggle and that means we have to do more if we want our government to do less we have to do

00:48:34.560 more one act of kindness one moment of faith in action on your part can meet all the world to one of

00:48:41.300 our brothers and sisters over in in israel please check out the international fellowship of christians

00:48:46.700 and jews today do what you can do what you feel compelled to give a gift to bless israel and her

00:48:51.320 people by visiting support ifcj.org that's one word support ifcj.org or you can call 888-488-IFCJ

00:48:59.760 888-488-IFCJ

00:49:02.680 Hiram Sasser is with us first liberty institute executive general counsel

00:49:06.540 uh on the judiciary last night um i showed you some of the names and organizations that are funding

00:49:14.480 this judicial coup against trump and that is exactly what it is and it is well orchestrated

00:49:21.180 well planned and well funded what do we do about it Hiram welcome to the program

00:49:26.380 hey thanks for having me you bet so uh last night i kind of went through these and it is sickening

00:49:32.040 to see how well planned this is and it has nothing to do with anything other than uh thwarting donald

00:49:39.760 trump and his agenda it doesn't have anything to do with the actual law or or anything else these are

00:49:44.480 the same people that were planning for his impeachment before he took president the first time

00:49:50.120 you know what i always find amazing is that everybody thinks that this is like a practice right

00:49:56.220 like we get to run our plays and there's no opponent going to be on the other side right

00:50:00.200 i mean there's there's a team on the other side they're very smart and they're well organized and

00:50:05.620 they and they work really hard for the things that they that they believe in and so we have to work

00:50:10.040 doubly hard look the the nationwide injunction thing has really gotten out of control i mean in the

00:50:16.160 20th century it sort of kind of emerged in the 60s you'd have a few here and there uh i think a

00:50:22.900 couple against president reagan a few against uh uh president clinton uh by this by this time in

00:50:29.700 by this time in biden's administration there were only three there's like 159 now well that's right

00:50:36.440 well look they're they they're they've really ramped up the cost what's fascinating by the way glenn is

00:50:41.840 that the left complained about nationwide injunctions when they were applied when you know all like you

00:50:47.700 basically 14 of them were applied uh uh to the biden administration uh there's a lot of what

00:50:55.700 people don't understand really is that there's only two there's only two institutions that can fix this

00:51:01.480 problem of nationwide injunctions either the supreme court's gonna have to put an end to it which they

00:51:06.160 can or congress is gonna have to put it into it which they can uh but but there there's no way 0.97

00:51:12.740 really uh from from a legal standpoint to stop until we get to one of those one of those two

00:51:17.660 inflection points but what's what i think is very very critical is is that if you would look like you

00:51:23.560 look at judge katzmerrick for example when he enjoined the fda's uh approval of of of abortion drugs

00:51:31.640 what one of the things that he did was he actually halted his order for a week to allow for an emergency

00:51:39.420 appeal by the united states like what judge bosberg was doing you know turning turn the planes around

00:51:45.340 i mean that's that's just that that that's that's beyond the pale he you even with the power to issue

00:51:52.360 a nationwide injunction a district court judge should give the government the opportunity to do

00:51:57.760 an emergency appeal in order to be able to have somebody else grade their papers and and unfortunately

00:52:03.140 that's this isn't about the rule of law this is about trying to control the policy and that's the

00:52:07.660 right i mean when you know the the left cheered when uh joe biden didn't just go against the

00:52:14.280 district court he went against the supreme court and said well they told me i couldn't spend this money

00:52:19.420 which is clearly unconstitutional um and uh you know we're just going to give all these uh refunds

00:52:25.560 and pay all these people's uh school uh school bills he couldn't do that and then when the supreme

00:52:31.340 court came out he said i'm just going to find another way to do it he did it over and over and over

00:52:35.040 again i don't have a problem if you are violating the constitution if president trump is violating

00:52:40.180 the constitution that is the supreme court's job to say hang on you can't do that it is not the

00:52:47.200 district court's place to stop an administrator from doing administrative work it is the supreme court's

00:52:56.380 place and uh i mean i suppose you you as a district uh judge could get involved um i don't think you

00:53:04.020 should at least at this kind of level that they are you know no no district court said hey you got

00:53:09.340 to turn the enola gay around no the president that's his responsibility to do that not court congress yes

00:53:17.080 not a court how far out of control is all of this just to put it into perspective for the average person

00:53:25.740 well look what's what's going on is that you have one one judge uh issuing an injunction against the

00:53:34.540 entire united states government that that is embodied in the power of one man the only person

00:53:40.940 who's elected by the entire nation and the entire executive branch is housed in one person and the people

00:53:49.020 that that person decides to employ in order to in order to effectuate policy then you have this one

00:53:55.300 district court judge not elected by anybody right who's telling that person what to do look that the

00:54:01.420 what really needs to happen is the supreme court needs to put a clamp on this uh and and and at the

00:54:08.180 very least all these decisions they need to be they need to be put on ice until they go to the u.s

00:54:14.000 supreme court for the final resolution now if the court says hey i agree with that judge that's fine

00:54:18.100 that's the supreme court and then congress can step in and fix it but that's that's the real that's

00:54:23.460 where where the rubber meets the road is that you're and and the left remember they complained

00:54:29.080 remember during the biden administration it's all about forum shopping do you remember all the

00:54:32.060 yeah remind people yeah i yeah look all they all the left complained about as well you know anytime

00:54:39.740 anyone wants to sue the biden administration you know they go to texas you know and and and they go

00:54:45.220 find some district court judge in texas well i've noticed that i've noticed that none of the people

00:54:49.660 on the left are suing the trump administration they're not filing their cases in texas right

00:54:53.960 they're going to find they're going to go find their judges and and and here's the fascinating part

00:55:00.140 you remember all those attacks on judges i mean judge katzmerrick and amarillo had a a billboard

00:55:06.620 just outside his neighborhood to remind his kids of what a horrible person he is all right and and and

00:55:13.940 we don't you don't see the federal yeah i never saw the federal judges association issue a statement

00:55:18.360 defending the judicial independence of judge katzmerrick uh and that's why judge ho actually

00:55:24.380 resigned recently from the fifth he's around the fifth circuit judge ho resigned from the federal

00:55:28.740 judges association because he didn't he basically couldn't stand what he said was he couldn't stand

00:55:34.740 the hypocrisy of what was going on with with the fact that they now issued a statement trying to

00:55:41.720 defend the independence of the judiciary because of you know all this rhetoric about uh these judges

00:55:46.860 are uh you know that that's a threat to judicial independence it the hypocrisy runs thick here

00:55:53.160 there the the left is against injunctions until they're for them they're they're against judicial

00:55:59.200 independence until they need it they are they are constantly switching sides just because it's about

00:56:06.320 a fight about power and and whatever gives them the power so look bottom line is this it's up to

00:56:13.280 congress there's a bill in front of congress they're debating it now hopefully that they can address

00:56:17.500 nationwide injunctions look one last thing i'll say glenn is this when we represented navy seals

00:56:22.420 to sue the united states navy because of the covet vaccine mandate violating their religious their

00:56:28.020 religious objections to the to taking the vaccine we had navy seals uh we didn't do a nationwide

00:56:34.920 injunction at first liberty uh we actually did the did the right thing we filed a class action lawsuit

00:56:40.700 we followed all the rules of filing a class action lawsuit and that's and that's how we were able

00:56:45.460 to win and we defeated the navy there is a way to do this right getting rid of nationwide injunctions

00:56:50.640 it's not gonna it's not gonna hamstring anybody everybody can do it the way we did it at first

00:56:55.160 liberty and still win yeah i tell you it's but it's you know and i know it's not about winning uh this

00:57:00.040 is just about destruction this is just about uh hobbling this administration so we can't get anything

00:57:05.940 done and they'll just keep moving on from one another they've already planned like i think like

00:57:09.600 another hundred uh lawsuits by the end of the year he hasn't done anything yet and uh and they've

00:57:17.140 already like yeah you know wait until you see what's coming next fall how did what what what are

00:57:21.600 you talking about how are you planning all these lawsuits in advance well it it will it look it's

00:57:26.900 called lawfare this is uh yes the the left has always been has always been better at it have you

00:57:33.020 noticed you know you know they always have to now they have to attack the left has to attack the

00:57:36.740 supreme court you know we had to come out in great defense of judicial independence you know

00:57:40.860 the left loves judicial independence for their district court judges but they never talk about

00:57:44.300 it for the supreme court they don't mind the protesters outside uh justice kavanaugh's house

00:57:49.940 you know with his daughters like looking out the window to see people like chanting you know death to

00:57:54.680 their dad right like the left doesn't care about the attacks of the supreme court why because they

00:57:59.500 don't feel like that that those are that they own that court anymore but if you go back in time

00:58:04.560 when when the left had a had a stranglehold on the u.s supreme court oh it's gone back 20 20 years oh

00:58:10.420 oh the american bar association the aclu all they ever talked about was judicial independence all they

00:58:15.620 ever talked about was defending the judiciary look it's not about principle for the left it's just about

00:58:21.480 power and on our side we have we have fought principally and with principles in order to try to

00:58:30.320 advance the the missions that we want to advance in court and it's time that the supreme court put a

00:58:35.120 clamp down on some of the nonsense or congress but one of those two we're going to have to do it

00:58:39.460 hyrum thank you so much hyrum sasser he is the first liberty institute executive general counsel

00:58:44.660 you can find their website and support them first liberty.org or on x at first liberty um let me go to

00:58:52.260 steve dace quickly he's uh kind of waiting here to to uh chat with us about the same thing you

00:58:57.760 you you know and i know it's time for something to happen you have a plan steve well let's go back

00:59:07.100 to the conversation you were just having a few minutes ago with hyrum who i have also known for

00:59:11.120 years and have an immense amount of regard for yeah so let's say you can get a you can get a congress

00:59:16.740 who can't even decide when they should vote who should vote can they vote okay and it's now on a

00:59:21.780 three-week break effectively let's say you could get them to limit these kinds of federal national

00:59:29.060 injunctions okay when is to stop the left from just marching right into a federal court and putting

00:59:36.780 an injunction on that okay hey judicial review nothing nothing nothing because we're back to the

00:59:43.440 same place we always are they're outside of their constitutional limits glenn you you can't quote

00:59:49.560 laws to men with guns the old saying says about marxists right okay and so they're going to have 1.00

00:59:54.880 to be put back in their place okay there's no there's no way around this other than showing the

00:59:59.320 american people they don't have this power and acting accordingly all right so i want to talk to you

01:00:03.560 about that give me one minute i'm coming back with steve dace for more on this uh but first let me tell

01:00:08.080 you about simply safe you and your spouse out for the evening enjoying the rare dinner on the town when

01:00:12.880 you get a text from the babysitter i just heard a weird noise outside i mean how many times honestly

01:00:18.980 that has happened to us before my wife you know now that the kids are older she's like whatever 1.00

01:00:23.180 uh but your your heart stops for a minute you know and then you open up your simply safe app and you

01:00:28.840 begin checking things around the house the doors are all locked the windows secure nothing is going

01:00:33.040 on outside the motion sensors haven't gone on nothing unusual and that's when you see it there is

01:00:39.020 somebody out there they maybe they're even wearing a mask it's that same raccoon that you've seen

01:00:44.840 before back to help himself with another trash can you text back relax everything is fine it's uh

01:00:51.420 it's just a raccoon go back to enjoy your dinner because simply safe has you covered that's the way

01:01:26.100 then back to steve steve i have to tell you the last night show i did on this it was so unbelievably

01:01:40.760 frustrating because i feel like i've had this same conversation about these same people for the

01:01:46.720 last 25 years and they just keep reinventing themselves putting a new mask on and saying no

01:01:53.300 we're not that we're now this they just keep changing names but it's the same people and same money behind

01:02:00.060 it how do we stop it because congress is not going to this is not correct just to reinforce your point

01:02:06.700 look at all of the greatest gains until obamacare all the greatest gains are left made in this

01:02:11.800 generation glenn yeah all came from judicial fiat things people at the time would not have voted for

01:02:17.240 yes engel versus vital in the 60s taking a prayer and god out of schools pleiler versus doe in the 80s

01:02:23.360 you have to taxpayer subsidize the children of illegal aliens roe versus wade in the 70s kilo versus new

01:02:29.380 london you don't have any private property rights on and on and on and on it goes and that's because

01:02:34.200 what hyrum said a few minutes ago is 100 correct you're dealing with people whose only metric is 0.73

01:02:39.260 power and control and so they will do what they want and then come up with a process to palpatine

01:02:45.020 it and say i will make it legal that's what they do we cannot play within some rules of a quorum of

01:02:51.420 decorum and um and and social compact in the midst of a color revolution okay so how do we do it without

01:02:58.020 becoming them you simply it's simple but it's not easy the president of the united states is going

01:03:04.320 to have to fulfill jefferson's prophecies about the courts and do something we haven't seen done

01:03:09.640 since lincoln issued the emancipation proclamation he is going to have to just ignore their orders

01:03:15.520 and carry out with the people elected him to do and then if the other side wants to have an

01:03:20.920 impeachment of trump they want to have elections trump could take your take your case to the people

01:03:25.640 and you say listen i get to interpret the constitution too the courts get to the legislature

01:03:31.780 does you the people are sovereign you are the final interpretation of what the constitution means

01:03:37.800 if you like my interpretation where i think i'm acting on the power you granted me government by the

01:03:43.180 consent of the governed to carry out your ideology and your wish list vote for my people if you disagree

01:03:49.360 if you think i've exceeded my mandate that the courts are supreme that the unelected judges

01:03:54.320 are the final barometer for what the constitution does or doesn't says there's a political party for

01:03:59.700 that vote for them and hand it over to the people that's what has to be done here and what are the

01:04:05.680 odds that's going to happen if he doesn't do it glenn i'll go back and re-rack all the conversations

01:04:11.740 you and i had about firing fauci in mid to late 20 and what that would do to his administration if

01:04:17.900 they didn't do that and get off of this scandemic and re-rack them it's the same game all right just

01:04:23.340 when you want to put down a populist uprising get unelected public officials to do it because

01:04:29.540 they're not accountable to the people yes so use use the unelected intelligence community for a

01:04:34.000 russia collusion hoax use unelected public health sector bureaucrats for a scandemic and now use

01:04:39.820 unelected judges all right they will still borne this presidency if he does not do this they won't

01:04:47.040 stop until they're stopped we live in a really scary time really scary time it should not come to this

01:04:52.460 let me i want to make sure your audience understands i'm not happy to be advocating

01:04:56.440 this this is not i know this is supposed to work but there's a reason john adams said this constitution

01:05:01.400 is only for a moral and religious people yes these are people that are not moral nor religious they

01:05:06.480 are law unto themselves and so therefore it will take extraordinary steps that get us all

01:05:11.540 uncomfortable in order to stop them otherwise they're going to end our way of life for good

01:05:15.740 steve thank you so much steve days he follows this program on the blaze tv network um thank you so much

01:05:20.820 god bless you we'll be listening today you know if you look at some of these judges i pointed this

01:05:25.300 out last night let me just give you first of all the dc district court judge james bozberg

01:05:29.460 picked by obama he was the guy on the fisa court that approved four applications that were sent to the

01:05:37.960 fisa court under false pretenses to make sure that he wiretapped uh donald trump okay then when he found

01:05:45.780 out that kevin clinesmith the fbi attorney had changed the facts he didn't punish him he gave

01:05:53.060 him a suspended sentence and they did nothing to change the fisa courts okay so that's that guy

01:05:58.860 then you have anna reyes she's another dc district court judge appointed by joe biden she's the one who 1.00

01:06:05.080 tried to stop the transgender troops in the military to band them banning that she volunteered her legal 0.76

01:06:12.500 services in 2020 for the biden campaign she has donated over 38 000 to democrats maxed out

01:06:18.120 contributions to biden in 2020 she has been associated with all kinds of activist groups

01:06:22.940 pro-abortion pro-illegal immigration pro-dei you name it then there's a judge theodore chang another

01:06:29.360 obama appointee he's the one trying to reverse the trump uh shutdown of usa id long history of donating

01:06:37.420 to the democratic party candidate and causes back in 27 he was the first or twice sorry 2017 he was

01:06:44.840 the first judge to block trump's travel ban on the muslim majority countries he also was the one who 0.79

01:06:51.940 issued the injunction against the trump administration's fda rule that made the abortion

01:06:56.140 drugs uh you had to pick them up in person couldn't be received by mail and then there's my favorite judge

01:07:02.440 that's involved in this amir ali born and raised in canada by egyptian parents he just became a u.s

01:07:10.220 citizen in 2019 he's now on the federal bench wow and they say immigrants can't make it here

01:08:53.860 let me talk to you a little bit about these uh tariffs here because if you're the average person

01:09:15.460 you are concerned about your grocery bill your car whether this could spiral into something as bad as

01:09:20.580 the great depression you know smooth holly that's what happened uh we had two uh senators i think

01:09:26.780 they were both from utah that uh did smooth holly that those were their names they put together this

01:09:32.660 act on tariffs uh then europe spiraled and said oh right oh yeah america well we're doing this and

01:09:39.020 then all hell broke loose and it was really really bad so could that happen okay let me explain first

01:09:46.760 of all what's happening the tariffs 10 on all imports gas is an oil is not included so you start

01:09:54.920 to see rising gas prices at the gas pumps you might want to ask yourself why because uh that's not

01:10:00.880 included in any of these tariffs 54 on chinese goods that's going to hit them hard their taxes on

01:10:07.160 stuff that we buy from other companies and countries and the companies from those other countries are going

01:10:12.940 to pass that on to you that cost so expect your your grocery bill to maybe be up by five percent

01:10:19.740 that's if you're spending 150 a week that's 157 now that's not good why because we import 60 percent

01:10:28.780 of our fruit 40 percent of our vegetables there's no reason for that 20 percent of our beef there's

01:10:34.260 absolutely no reason for that a new car that is going to might cost you a thousand to two thousand

01:10:40.380 dollars more if you're driving a regular american car or i mean made a foreign car uh repairs are

01:10:47.140 going to go up five to ten percent because 40 percent of our auto parts are imported a lot of this stuff

01:10:53.860 is going to go into a supply chain problem uh used cars here's good news i think uh used cars could rise

01:11:01.080 five percent in value that means your fifteen thousand dollar civic might hit fifteen you know seven fifty

01:11:08.080 goes up a little bit uh you're going to feel this at the store higher prices on food and clothes and

01:11:13.740 electronics and it's a punch in the gut let's be let's not be the new york times and say there is no

01:11:20.440 problem egg prices no they're absolutely down you just don't understand you're going to feel this one

01:11:26.740 you're going to feel it okay so why is it happening why is he doing this well we have kept our tariffs low

01:11:34.840 traditionally uh we average 2.6 percent others like india charge 17 percent brazil 13 percent eu is

01:11:43.560 at 5.4 percent that's all according to the world bank these are not the trump numbers these are world

01:11:49.100 bank numbers okay uh and it's a little imbalanced i mean you know you're charging me five and a half

01:11:54.880 and i'm charging you 2.6 why would i do that so we've been played what he's trying to do is level

01:12:02.760 the playing field make american goods competitive and bring jobs back here to america so we're not

01:12:08.080 just buying everything from around the world we're also selling to the rest of the world it has to be

01:12:13.400 that way the white house says it's about protecting our economy uh and not just playing tough and i believe

01:12:20.040 that he he is looking to go back to the 1800s where we had high tariffs and it helped us grow four

01:12:27.440 percent a year and we built industries from scratch okay that's before we had the income tax and that's

01:12:35.160 one of the problems here you want to do that fine but you can't have the income tax you know and by the

01:12:41.920 way congress you make me sick you're you're leaving for three weeks and you don't have uh you don't have

01:12:47.620 the it just not even passing you know they keep calling it a tax cut you're not even passing

01:12:53.180 the bill that will keep the taxes as low as they are now it's not a tax cut taxes are going to go

01:13:00.060 up next month unless they do or next year unless they do something about it and so they're calling

01:13:05.520 it a tax cut it's not a tax cut and we actually need a tax cut but are you going to do anything

01:13:13.400 so the president needs a lot of things his hope is to boost manufacturing and farming and and jobs

01:13:20.940 uh but it could backfire i just i want to shoot straight with you i support the president i'm

01:13:27.180 giving him the benefit of the doubt but i want you to know it could backfire um the s&p dropped what

01:13:34.040 almost three percent uh the dow is down today full-blown trade war you know cut 10 off of the s&p 500

01:13:42.120 that matters to you this according to the federal reserve that matters to you because it's going to hit

01:13:46.440 your 401k um and smooth holly 1930 this tank global trade 66 percent that's what really deepened the

01:13:57.280 great depression so let me just show you some things that you should watch for that will say

01:14:01.480 oh this is not good unemployment rising above 4.5 it's now 4.1 now that's according to the bureau of

01:14:08.420 labor statistics inflation going past four percent from 2.4 that won't be good for the economy

01:14:17.040 what's really going to be bad is if china and the eu retaliate if they target our 150 billion dollars 0.95

01:14:25.620 in exports like soybeans farmers could lose 10 billion dollars that means fewer jobs less money

01:14:30.840 in your pocket higher grocery bill everything okay farmers and ranchers might see a silver lining

01:14:37.580 however because tariffs make imported food pricier so demand for our crops and our meat could rise the

01:14:45.920 demand by about five to seven percent that would add eight billion dollars to the farmers in the first

01:14:51.880 year according to the farm bureau but scaling everything up is going to take time one to two

01:14:57.320 years for crops two to three years for cattle three to five for new processing plants according to

01:15:02.600 purdue university and if it works the u.s food output would be really good it'd be 10 percent in

01:15:09.680 four years that would create another half million jobs 16 billion dollars more for the farmers and no

01:15:15.900 subsidies on that that's just actual they're working they're making more money that's hope for the rural

01:15:20.780 communities more stable incomes more local spending and more independence because we're not depending on

01:15:26.820 everybody else to send us their food tax reform and regulation keys to making this work you know if 0.97

01:15:35.560 i were the president today because it's the cherry trees are in bloom up in washington dc i would be in

01:15:40.880 front of those cherry trees with an axe and say the only time that a president had an axe and a cherry

01:15:47.500 tree was when he was going to cut it down something that didn't happen but nobody knows because our

01:15:51.740 education system is so screwed up but i'm a president i'm not going to chop down the cherry

01:15:57.380 tree i am going to chop regulation in half and it begins today that's the kind of stuff that spurs 0.56

01:16:05.960 spurs people on to start their own business to do things when you know it's not taxes that stop most

01:16:14.020 people from doing things it's regulation i just can't get it done because the government's in my way

01:16:19.040 every step of the way and if we don't cut taxes and we don't cut regulations then you're just going

01:16:24.660 to be stuck with a higher cost so here's the best case scenario three to five years u.s production

01:16:31.380 ramps up more food more cars more goods made here jobs grow maybe a million new ones if regulations ease

01:16:38.240 your grocery bill stabilizes as imports drop wages rise currently growing at 3.5 but that's barely above

01:16:45.600 inflation the trade deficit shrinks making our economy stronger less reliant on foreign goods

01:16:51.660 that is so important it's not the 1800s but global supply chains are too complex right now but targeted

01:16:59.640 tariffs paired with smart policy could echo that growth like we were forced to do better trade deals

01:17:05.940 with japan in the 1980s now here's the thing that you have to ask yourself am i for this or against

01:17:15.360 this am i willing to take the bet that president trump who told us he was going to do tariffs is 0.99

01:17:21.380 right on this we've tried it the other way for a hundred years and it keeps biting us in the ass 0.98

01:17:26.480 everything has to change he's trying to change everything are you willing to do that you're probably 0.98

01:17:33.420 going to pay more for the next one to two years it could be rough but the payoff could be great

01:17:39.660 i mean

01:17:43.260 we you know that we've lost 20 of our food processing since 2000

01:17:50.000 20 of our ability to process our own food is gone since 2000 i don't know i think that's a

01:18:01.780 troubling thing you know the fact that 90 of our rare earth minerals all come from china

01:18:09.280 90 of all of our medications come from china or india that's not a good thing i don't want the 1.00

01:18:17.280 government building any of that stuff i want private sector to build it but i need the government

01:18:23.280 to say okay you want to play ball that way we'll both go to zero tariffs we'll both go to zero tariffs

01:18:29.740 i don't charge you extra you don't charge me extra we're fine but we're not playing this game

01:18:36.280 anymore with you we've been screwed and it's been our fault we've accepted it we've been screwed for 0.83

01:18:42.200 decades now on this so you want to play that game we'll play that game and we hold more cards than you do so

01:18:49.820 go ahead have at it that's a very dangerous game but should we play it or should we just stay at the

01:18:57.560 status quo i'm more of a gambler on things i i'm not sure i know the the odds of the table and that's

01:19:07.480 what i always say risk big win big risk big lose big you just have to know the odds are in your favor

01:19:12.840 before you put you know the money down on the table what are the odds that this will work i don't know

01:19:18.260 it makes sense to me but it goes against everything i've ever said and ever believed and ever written

01:19:24.440 about tariffs so i don't know and i honestly i've been thinking about last few days am i giving

01:19:30.380 am i am i willing to give this guy the benefit of the doubt because it's donald trump i don't think

01:19:38.260 so i think i'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt because he's the guy we have always

01:19:42.980 wanted we've wanted a really hard nose twitchy eye negotiator somebody that just makes everybody at

01:19:50.680 the table go don't don't mess with him he just might do it okay so that's what he is he's the

01:19:55.440 best negotiator maybe in the business in the world today he is a great businessman he his gut has been

01:20:03.660 right so many times when i thought his gut was absolutely wrong it turns out oh wow it is like

01:20:09.840 that okay he's made mistakes um but he's also the only guy who i really truly believe that i can point to

01:20:18.620 at that scale that that i can say i know he truly loves the country i know he has taken it up the

01:20:27.360 butt with his own business for so long by trying to be president of the united states he has just been

01:20:34.560 screwed over and over and over again with his own business it's not about him getting rich it's not 0.75

01:20:41.800 about him it is about the country he's the guy i was looking for as a negotiator he's the guy i was

01:20:47.900 looking for as a businessman he understands it he clearly understands the odds he's not an attorney

01:20:55.040 he's not a politician he's a businessman i think that's why i'm willing to give him the benefit of

01:21:01.760 the doubt and i do it looking him right in the eye saying i don't necessarily agree on this but

01:21:08.080 you're the expert on this so i think i'm gonna bet on you

01:21:13.100 he knows that if this does not work he's done he's done but so does the left and that's why the

01:21:23.020 left is doing everything they can to thwart him to use the the the judges and everything else because

01:21:30.080 this has to all happen quickly and so anything that throws this and slows this down brings us back to

01:21:38.360 listen to today's first hour monologue on the podcast brings us back down to the two choices

01:21:44.340 we have we are they're gonna break out and do something very different which is what i usually

01:21:50.660 do in my life break out and say you know what it's not really working the way i think it should and i see

01:21:56.700 trends and i'm gonna go this way and it's usually high risk but it's paid off for me in the past

01:22:04.200 it's also bitten me in the butt a couple of times donald trump is that guy saying this doesn't work 0.72

01:22:11.680 the system that we have built does not work the principles do work the free market the principles 0.81

01:22:21.080 of you know america uh the bill of rights all of those things work but we haven't been doing those

01:22:27.160 things so how do we get us back to those principles because the other choice is let's manage the

01:22:34.080 decline why do you think that our our education system is so bad right now it's not just because

01:22:42.460 of uh hey let me say let me say this this way what is the worst thing a teacher can say that every

01:22:48.640 teacher says to our children almost every day get your pencils out because this is going to be on the

01:22:54.840 test that's the worst thing that's how you know your teacher is not teaching the right things

01:23:03.720 because what they're saying is i have to teach you to memorize this write it down because it's on the

01:23:10.080 test they're not teaching you to think they're teaching you what to memorize why is that happening

01:23:18.100 that's happening because we all wanted in the progressive era all little workers that would do

01:23:23.400 exactly what the boss said to do because we have an assembly line just i told you put this in this slot

01:23:29.660 move this way do this in this amount of time and that's what we churned out we can't churn that out

01:23:35.400 anymore we need kids that can think that's your choice do you want to go back to more of this managed

01:23:46.820 decline or do you want to take bold moves and change everything most people are not like me i am

01:23:56.140 a guy who takes risks i'm a guy who's like i'd rather i'd rather risk and have what i really think

01:24:03.500 is desirable because i think we can do it i know we can do this if we all choose that more in a minute

01:24:11.700 you know these days the average credit card interest rate is over 20 that means if you're

01:24:17.300 carrying any sizable balance you're almost certainly throwing away thousands of dollars every year just to

01:24:22.880 pay on that interest that's no way to live and you'll never get out of it it's like us paying you

01:24:27.360 know a trillion dollars on our national debt it's not good you're never going to get out from

01:24:32.000 underneath it i wish there was something big like american financing where we could go to them and

01:24:37.040 say hey we're going to put the national parks up you know we're going to put that up we're going to

01:24:40.440 stop our spending and we're going to put those up because you're going to give us a loan for those

01:24:44.320 national parks at half the interest rate we're paying right now which would save us money which would

01:24:50.080 allow us to pay off our debt but there is no american financing at that level because the

01:24:55.980 government you can never trust them to do that but american financing knows you're motivated because

01:25:02.100 you can't just print money so you're motivated so they'll find the ways for you to get out of that

01:25:08.620 high interest debt so you can pay it down and start doing the things you need to do in your own life

01:25:14.440 it's american financing 800-906-2440 800-906-2440 it's americanfinancing.net nmls182334 nmlsconsumeraccess.org

01:25:37.840 i know

01:25:54.480 stew and i are having a fascinating conversation we have to have on the air uh because he's you know

01:26:00.800 he's like why are you being so deferential to donald trump on this particular issue and i think

01:26:06.540 it's because the decision was made on elect election day he wasn't subtle about about tariffs

01:26:12.120 sure now is not the time to back off let him do what he said he was going to do a year from now

01:26:18.740 it's not working we're gonna have another conversation

01:26:22.200 let me tell you about uh you know home title lock here for a second uh you always lock your doors when

01:26:29.380 you leave your house right you always set your alarm too for good measure you're very interested in

01:26:33.840 making sure that your house is safe but what about your home's title are you keeping an eye on that

01:26:38.360 as well i bet you're not it's part of the home that no one ever thinks to protect until it's too too late

01:26:53.860 restore it at no extra cost home title theft or house stealing as it's often called is not only not

01:26:59.240 going away it is becoming a lot more common every day home title lock wants to give you 30 free day

01:27:04.020 full days of triple lock protection plus a free title history report it's a huge deal

01:27:08.680 use the promo code blaze when you sign up at home title lock.com ai is changing the world don't let

01:27:13.840 it change the name on your home's title home title lock.com the promo code is blaze home title lock.com

01:27:30.440 match all week she was so focused on visualizing that she didn't see the column behind her car

01:27:35.640 on her backhand side good thing claudia's with intact the insurer with the largest network of auto 1.00

01:27:41.900 service centers in the country everything was taken care of under one roof and she was on her way in a

01:27:46.680 rental car in no time i made it to my tournament and lost in the first round but you got there on

01:27:52.740 time intact insurance your auto service ace certain conditions apply

01:28:16.680 you got to face the dog embrace the fire

01:28:42.960 the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment this is the glenn beck program

01:28:53.220 hello america i want to talk to you about the time beyond the tariffs what america must build now

01:29:03.000 we're going to do that in just a second first let's just start with this concept america was built on

01:29:07.760 hard work independence and fiscal responsibility how many of those things do we have in our

01:29:13.060 government right now everything that you and i enjoy in this country right now is is because it

01:29:18.120 was built slowly on the backs of those who came before us but today reckless government spending

01:29:24.440 terrifying global agendas has driven our dollar so far into the ground that it's questionable if it'll

01:29:29.820 even ever be able to recover at this point some things like your retirement savings for instance

01:29:35.580 are too important just to be left to chance which is why you need to consider investing a portion of

01:29:41.200 what you have saved into precious metals like gold or silver listen i want you to do your own homework

01:29:47.080 i always have told you that but it is important that um you don't wait around too long on this gold

01:29:53.540 isn't getting any cheaper and it's going to get far more expensive as time marches on please

01:29:58.600 call lear capital today call them at 800-957-gold 800-957-gold ask them for your free 4200 gold

01:30:06.440 report and when you call also find out about how you can get extra 15 000 in free gold or silver with a

01:30:12.620 qualifying purchase so call 800-957-gold call them today 800-957-gold all right there there are uh three

01:30:21.640 things that i want the president of the united states to uh stand hard on right now if i if i were if i had

01:30:28.320 his ear and i was like okay mr president here's what you do he'd look at me like what the hell 0.54

01:30:32.280 glenn you think i'm gonna listen to you but let me give him some advice anyway i want the president

01:30:39.260 to hammer three things first today i would urge him to take an axe to the regulations today in

01:30:47.340 breathtaking ways that's that's number one well i want him to show up actually with an axe and say

01:30:55.500 i am going to cut regulations so we make this country more competitive no need for this government

01:31:02.800 to get into your way of your dreams the states want to do that's fine you know if you're obviously

01:31:10.160 going to pump poison into the you know into the rivers and everything else then we're going to get

01:31:14.120 involved in that but no more of this over regulation and i'm cutting them today in breathtaking ways

01:31:20.660 and then i want him to shame the congress you know congress is going out on like a three-week

01:31:26.580 vacation now i don't i mean must be nice guys uh wow insider trading and unlimited vacations it seems

01:31:33.560 uh at some point they're going to come back and they're going to make those tax cuts that we got

01:31:39.400 eight years ago permanent that's not what we voted for we didn't vote for that we voted for

01:31:45.560 significant tax cuts we want you to reduce the deficit we want you to give us significant tax

01:31:52.100 cuts we want you to um uh get out of our way and donald trump said the last thing we have to do is

01:32:01.160 raise tariffs well he raised tariffs yesterday congress shame on you be bold see the times that

01:32:07.340 we're in we're in bold times do you have any courage to be bold at all okay so he wrote we raised the

01:32:14.600 tariffs and what everybody is saying is great this is going to bring back american manufacturing

01:32:18.240 that instant instinct is right we have to bring jobs back to america we have outsourced way too

01:32:25.360 much we've hollowed out our middle class and all we are now is on a on managed decline that's really

01:32:32.300 what the course is managed decline donald trump is trying to flip that we have made ourselves so

01:32:38.340 vulnerable to foreign supply chains uh you know that at best you know they don't care about us 1.00

01:32:45.860 at worst some of these foreign supply chain providers that i mean they want to destroy us 1.00

01:32:50.620 so what are we doing so here's the truth if all we have to do is chase the old jobs we're going to

01:32:58.640 end up building the ghost towns of opportunity for tomorrow you just you can't do it because the the

01:33:06.020 the factories with lights on but no people on inside that's that's coming okay this time when the

01:33:14.320 factories come back they're not bringing back the same jobs they're going to be done by robotics

01:33:20.020 sensors ai systems and if we don't think bigger and broader and bolder we are going to miss the

01:33:27.360 opportunity to build the nation that doesn't just survive it's the nation that leads we have to stop

01:33:35.080 thinking about america's future like it's a rerun of 1954 it's not gm's not coming back the big

01:33:42.060 factories aren't coming back like that and the goal is never to return to the past do you think in 1954

01:33:47.160 they were like oh man if we could just have those big factories you know mill in those cotton no 1.00

01:33:53.660 they weren't thinking like 100 years ago why are we the goal is not to return to the past the goal

01:34:02.020 is to build what the world needs tomorrow and make sure we're the ones that are controlling it

01:34:09.180 so when we talk about bringing jobs back what are the jobs we should be looking for what do we build

01:34:15.460 well first of all we build chip foundries okay not one not two dozens of them all over the country

01:34:22.260 dozens of chip factories because every single car every missile every drone every phone every

01:34:28.260 satellite every ai model depends on those chips we must control the chips right now the majority of

01:34:37.360 high-end chips come from taiwan which is a hundred miles off the coast of a very aggressive and unstable

01:34:44.140 china do you think if things get tough we're going to have we're going to have access to those chips

01:34:51.720 and we can't just have taiwan come in and say oh we're going to build one factory here no dozens of those

01:34:58.400 factories redundancy you know having everything coming from taiwan that's not a supply chain that's a hostage

01:35:05.500 situation ready to happen we need to bring the entire chip ecosystem home that means the raw materials the

01:35:14.300 design the fabrication the packaging the protection that's sovereignty that's bringing america into the

01:35:21.960 future not back to 1954 another thing and i wouldn't mind going back to 1954 on this one because we at

01:35:29.240 least got this one right we need to build nuclear power period and not the cranking you know the

01:35:37.460 creaking concrete dinosaurs of the cold war we need to build small modular reactors we have them now ai optimized grid

01:35:46.460 systems next generation thorium designs that are faster that are cheaper that are cleaner that are safer

01:35:54.020 why do we need them because of the data centers these data centers are going to eat up so much of our

01:36:02.700 electricity if you don't build these things now and you want to stay competitive with ai

01:36:07.280 as a nation you're going to be having brownouts because the the data centers are going to need

01:36:13.840 them so if we are ahead in ai but we didn't build enough electricity you're going to be living in

01:36:20.100 brownouts that's not a good idea that's not how we lead if you want to run the data centers the

01:36:26.380 factories the server farms the electric vehicles all without choking our air and all without depending on

01:36:32.720 any foreign oil nuclear is not an option it's the foundation and if we would if we would pursue this

01:36:42.560 new technology it's already here if our government would help by just deregulating not the crazy

01:36:49.780 stuff well actually deregulating the crazy stuff not the protections against the crazy stuff make sure

01:36:56.880 these things are safe but build them then serve server farms i don't want the government building 0.95

01:37:02.600 a single server farm not one but i do want the government and this would create a lot of jobs

01:37:08.120 to build data fortresses okay server farms domestic cloud infrastructure let the private sector fill the

01:37:16.880 buildings with the latest and the greatest let them carry all the risk let them oh gee this is something

01:37:21.880 brand new we got to get rid of all that good they carry all of that but but perhaps it is the

01:37:27.100 government's job to build a fortress around those centers to protect it that's where the real money can 0.98

01:37:34.700 come in and businesses will say i want because they're protecting it it's safe here the backbone of

01:37:43.440 every single ai model every defense system every modern company it's all going to be on data period

01:37:50.600 and we're hosting far too much of it uh right now on foreign owned systems or in single points of

01:37:58.160 failure not a good idea we need hardened distributed secure computing across the country our future should

01:38:06.320 not be held uh together by luck some band-aids and third-party logins what are we doing so forget about

01:38:13.940 building you know the new gm plant of the future these are the things that we should be focused on

01:38:20.140 we need to build robotics hardware because while ai is the brain robotics is the body and whoever builds

01:38:28.720 the controls uh whoever builds the body controls the labor of the future okay because it's not going to be

01:38:35.480 you working on an assembly line it will be a robot china is pouring billions of dollars into robot manufacturing

01:38:43.920 if they control the means of automated production they control the next industrial revolution have

01:38:50.380 you seen their docs compared to our docs we're not doing anything because of all of our labor unions

01:38:55.320 china doesn't care about the labor unions okay i don't think that's a good thing i don't like china's model 0.99

01:39:01.540 but if we don't understand that they will put us out of business if we don't adapt to what is happening

01:39:09.640 we are going to be left in the dust all of this stuff is not worth anything all the pain that you

01:39:16.340 will be feeling at the grocery store and everything else all of the arguing all the fighting that we

01:39:21.560 have done to try to save our country is over in the next five years if we're not understanding what

01:39:28.120 i'm saying to you right now we cannot allow china to lead in uh in ai or automation from agricultural 0.99

01:39:39.160 bots to surgical systems it has to be led by us we also need to create new jobs in rare earth processing

01:39:48.760 and strategic minerals refining right here we have to do it even if it costs us more for a while

01:39:55.620 these are the jobs that must be brought to america we must create them finding the mining the

01:40:03.020 refinery of our own rare earth minerals because you can't build a single solar panel you can't

01:40:09.140 build uh an electric motor a wind turbine a guidance system without these materials because

01:40:15.580 you can't build the chips and right now china controls about 90 percent of all of the global

01:40:21.360 refinery we dig the ore here and then we send it to them that's not just bad policy that's national

01:40:28.720 suicide what are you doing we need to mine smarter refine cleaner and stockpile strategically we need

01:40:37.340 to build next generation alloys and materials because very soon ai is going to start discovering

01:40:43.000 new substances that we never would have thought of it's going to look at the periodic tables and it's

01:40:48.040 going to say why are you using steel you want to build a steel plant why take this this this combine

01:40:52.940 it in this way and it's going to make something that's twice as light and three times as strong

01:40:57.620 stronger than carbon fiber heat resistant self-healing all of that stuff is coming

01:41:04.500 these are going to change the way we build planes buildings armor spacecraft maybe even the way we

01:41:11.840 heal the body profound change is here before 2030 we should not be watching any of this from the

01:41:19.560 sidelines the united states of america needs to lead it if we are going to be have another great

01:41:26.040 renaissance and have you know what donald trump says this new golden age we have to be leading this

01:41:33.700 stuff we have to be building biomanufacturing domestic pharmaceutical productions um you know

01:41:41.420 the next war may not be fought with bullets it might just be fought with a virus antibiotics hormones

01:41:48.760 vaccines 90 of our active pharmaceutical ingredients still come from china and india

01:41:55.740 that's madness that's madness that's a chokehold we need redundancy we need it here we need it now

01:42:04.760 we need to build vertical farms regenerative uh agriculture ai powered food networks you you can't

01:42:16.520 eat patriotism i want the farms to survive i want american domestic products here but we have to see

01:42:23.220 what's over the horizon and start building those jobs it would be like if i'm saying you know what

01:42:29.060 farmers we're going to bring back the jobs of the farm of the old days and i send you a horse

01:42:34.260 and a plow to strap you wouldn't want that we must think differently

01:42:40.100 you know in a crisis if all of our our ports are down our shelves are empty in days

01:42:47.060 we need cities to grow their own food farms that rebuild the soil systems that ensure that every 0.91

01:42:55.080 american can eat and a quick reminder here uh you know with with uh very few exceptions here uh when i

01:43:03.820 say we need to build i i don't mean the government uh with very few exceptions like defense the private

01:43:11.880 market does all of this what the government can do is reduce our taxes reduce the taxes on builders and

01:43:19.840 entrepreneurs reduce the regulations help us help you

01:43:25.760 i don't care what's happening on the other side of the globe i don't

01:43:30.860 we need to build freight infrastructure

01:43:34.160 we need to build corridors that let us move our supplies and our our goods across the country

01:43:41.720 without ever having to touch a foreign port and we don't need better roads my gosh how many times

01:43:48.580 we have to put we need more resilient roads do you know some of the concrete some of the things that

01:43:53.720 are being produced now in other countries that we're so far behind on

01:43:57.620 yes maybe we build a steel mill from time to time but not the ones we remember we build automated

01:44:04.820 modular ultra clean micro mills that forge the next generation of steel in smaller batches closer to

01:44:12.280 where it's needed because the future is not about bulk it's about agility it's about speed it's about

01:44:18.240 precision that is the new industrial revolution the question isn't will america bring jobs back the

01:44:25.640 question is will america build what the future depends on if we get stuck in this trying to

01:44:33.220 resurrect the past we're going to be outpaced by nations that are inventing right now they're

01:44:39.260 inventing what's next tariffs are just a tool a lever but they're not vision we need to think like

01:44:46.600 builders again like pioneers like people who understand that the goal is not just to have a job

01:44:52.560 the goal is to have the capacity to survive to compete and to lead let's build what matters

01:45:00.780 not nostalgia not for headlines but because the future can't wait and if we're not leading that

01:45:11.320 if we're not shaping the future believe me someone else will i want us to do it back in just a minute

01:45:19.680 imagine you wake up one morning you reach out for your phone you see an email notifying you

01:46:28.800 i want to thank stew for inspiring that yesterday i was on his show and he asked me you know these

01:46:45.420 jobs coming back you've talked about let's not build the next generation of war plane that comes

01:46:51.020 out in 10 years because that's a waste of money and he i've been saying that for a while and he said

01:46:56.160 so what are we what jobs are we bringing back great question hadn't really thought about it

01:47:01.420 until then it is a big concern yeah it is should be i mean am i wrong to think about because i was

01:47:07.620 thinking about this a little bit after we talked yesterday that maybe you know the focus on all of

01:47:13.540 this trade policy because i like nerdy policy stuff and so i like talking about this stuff but at some

01:47:19.000 level whatever this is is going to be dwarfed by whatever thing we're looking at with ai in the next

01:47:25.200 few years right oh yeah i mean the effects of it if we do it right we do it right and your your

01:47:30.720 point on energy i think is so good it not only connects it's one thing china has on us yeah it's

01:47:37.000 but it not only connects with what we need it also totally connects with his mission donald trump

01:47:41.820 meaning meaning his mission his mission he's been talking about energy independence he's been

01:47:45.860 talking about all this and it also connects with the global warming nuts yeah yeah it's true okay

01:47:50.760 it's zero emissions yeah and it's safer the new stuff is so safe yep i mean yeah it's the safest

01:47:58.720 form of energy ever developed even with the old stuff this is not the old stuff and we're gonna

01:48:05.680 need it we need it quite clear we're gonna need it anyway so that's a really good way to look at this

01:48:12.000 and i think uh you know it's a it's also to me one of the things that is it feels a little defense

01:48:17.960 tariffs feel a little defensive to me it feels like you're just you're like well you're doing

01:48:21.820 this to us so we're doing this to you in a way like we're allowing every one of these countries

01:48:26.140 to set american policy right right like why well we should be doing that but he's also saying um

01:48:33.180 because he's changing it because he's going to change the way america is working he's saying it's

01:48:38.460 because we're going to change our tax policies we're going to change the uh our attitude towards just

01:48:44.380 managing decline just making every american a consumer no that's not going to work i mean it is

01:48:51.680 part of a bigger strategy yeah i think i think that's true um but i like going on offense too

01:49:00.220 but i think your approach is really a more of an offensive one we go when we try to solve these

01:49:04.700 problems um without letting other countries kind of like paste their bad policy onto ours right let's

01:49:13.260 just lead right and and it's possible donald trump is the one guy that can actually do what i just

01:49:18.820 said i'd love to hear him give a speech like that here's what we're going to do now these are the jobs

01:49:24.660 we're bringing to america this is glenn beck the heartbeat is that first sound of life the first sign

01:49:34.680 that there is a genuine god-created miracle in motion but for thousands of babies in the womb that

01:49:40.240 tiny little heartbeat is silenced before it even has a chance to be heard imagine a woman alone 1.00

01:49:46.080 scared pregnant all by herself she didn't have anybody in her family to console her help her

01:49:52.040 she's been told you know abortion's the only real option she's been told by some that she should be 0.61

01:49:58.420 proud of it she didn't want to do this she doesn't know what to do she has no connection to that little

01:50:03.760 heartbeat going inside of her that's where pre-born comes in they give mom a free ultrasound because 1.00

01:50:10.680 when mom hears the heartbeat she is twice as likely to choose life they also go beyond that because they

01:50:18.900 know mom is in a desperate situation she wouldn't be there if she wasn't she doesn't feel like she has

01:50:23.480 any way to deal with this she doesn't have any way to take care of the child whatever it is 1.00

01:50:28.760 that's why pre-born is there for up to two years after she's given birth that's compassion that

01:50:34.980 saves both the baby and the mom use the keyword baby at pound 250 please just donate 28 bucks base

01:50:49.920 blaze tv.com slash glenn and save 30 bucks off your subscription to blaze tv

01:50:53.760 okay question for you glenn on the tariffs there's uh we saw israel for example go to zero percent

01:51:18.100 um yes now again israel has a very complicated relationship with us right now they'll do

01:51:22.320 whatever we want here's i think because of hamas and and the other the ontario governor just said

01:51:27.440 we'll go to zero if trump will go to zero there we go okay great so i see that and i say yeah that

01:51:32.040 would be a good outcome if what the plan is here right is we have these big uh threats so we say

01:51:39.780 are reciprocal tariffs because we don't think the thing these trade deals are fair and our goal is

01:51:45.500 hey you drop all your tariffs we'll drop ours and we have we both have zero and trump has said

01:51:51.700 that type of thing before yeah if that's the goal i am still nervous about these means right because

01:51:58.500 i think there's some harm that could come along with them but like i'm with him on the goal on

01:52:02.020 that completely okay so is that the goal that's path one or is it path two which is to return all

01:52:09.780 these jobs to the united states because if tariffs are zero by definition those tariffs would then not

01:52:16.580 impact jobs moving back to the united states they can might come for other reasons but like it won't

01:52:22.500 be because of tariffs so either tariffs are a good policy to get jobs back here or we want we're using

01:52:29.140 tariffs as a threat to get to no tariffs but that won't help us get jobs back here which one of those is

01:52:35.180 the goal let me restate your question and see if you agree with this okay it's like me saying

01:52:43.960 does donald trump want the rare earth minerals and the air base state or space from greenland

01:52:54.200 or does he just want a 51st state

01:52:57.800 right okay i mean i think that which one is his goal i think it's greenland yeah right no i mean

01:53:06.200 yeah he wants a 51st state and he wants it so does he want greenland to be the 51st state or does he

01:53:11.560 want the air the you know would he just say would if greenland said hey we don't want to be your 51st

01:53:17.320 state but here's the here's our rare earth minerals you will sell it directly to you and uh you can put

01:53:22.840 any base you want up here which one does he want would it be over with greenland would he be happy with

01:53:29.560 one or the other um yeah i guess at least partially happy right i mean but one but but in that case the

01:53:39.960 they align if we get the 51st state we get the rare earth minerals in these they they don't align

01:53:45.800 that the outcome from these two policies is the opposite they are the one is one if he hates the

01:53:53.640 free trade stuff one of these if canada goes to zero and we go to zero it's more of the free trade

01:53:58.680 stuff right it doesn't help jobs come back here in theory in this world which i don't necessarily

01:54:04.520 agree with but in this world if we go to zero percent but more jobs go overseas i think in this

01:54:09.880 case it's a win either way it's a win they disagree with each other no no no no you're not going to get

01:54:17.480 the same outcome right you're going to get one or the other but both of them are win you're not used to

01:54:22.440 this i think none of us are because republicans don't think this way okay maybe we're always like

01:54:27.320 we're a lose-lose and the and the democrats are always like hey if you do that we win but if you take

01:54:33.880 that road which we really don't want we win you know what i mean so i'm not sure that you can i

01:54:40.280 don't i'm not donald trump

01:54:44.520 let me tell you a story i heard about him okay uh and i haven't checked this with him yet so take

01:54:50.280 it with a grain of salt i heard it from somebody who it's a legend who was in the room okay well

01:54:55.240 that's even more than that so uh donald trump owned the um new york plaza okay and uh that's a big

01:55:06.680 old very expensive hotel okay i mean just to own and to take care of

01:55:12.920 it's very expensive it's like a whole city block it's enormous i would not want that on my balance

01:55:19.160 sheet you know because it's just something's wait i got to repair something what is that going to

01:55:24.280 cost anyway that's the way i think um so he was going to sell it and his team knew that they were

01:55:30.840 going to sell this hotel and uh he had the japanese come in and they had all been prepared to sell that

01:55:38.520 hotel okay and everybody meets with donald trump before and they say okay we're selling the plaza

01:55:46.280 don't let them leave until they agree to buy the plaza hotel donald trump comes in he sits down in

01:55:52.760 the room and uh one of his team starts talking about the plaza and he listens to him for maybe 10

01:55:58.440 minutes and uh he says you know what let me just excuse me just to his own person excuse me just a

01:56:05.080 second forget about the plaza i'm developing this new property right off the river just about six

01:56:13.480 blocks from here 10 blocks from here it's enormous we haven't even broken ground on it yet um and i'm

01:56:20.680 looking for an investment and he actually sold them that and when they walked out trump's team was like

01:56:29.960 what what did we just what happened here we were right we lost the we didn't sell the plaza we didn't

01:56:34.760 sell the plaza right he said i got into it i wanted to sell them the plaza but the minute i'm sitting

01:56:40.840 there listening to them and looking at them and listening watching them listen to you i realized

01:56:45.480 they're never going to buy the plaza so i said okay here's another deal i can offer them and he said

01:56:53.160 i just changed the plan i don't know if you can ever because you could say wait a minute wait a minute

01:56:59.080 wait a minute our goal was to get the plaza no his goal was to win his goal was to get the money to

01:57:08.280 further his industry okay his plans yeah and i'm not sure if you can ever understand when it's when

01:57:17.640 we're in negotiation i don't know if you can ever this count him you know and go i know what he's

01:57:24.360 thinking because i don't think you do know what he's thinking and i think you're right that's that's

01:57:27.800 my question is i don't know what he's thinking here um i i mean i i do worry that we get a little

01:57:32.600 bit into uh i mean we should know at some level what our what our president is thinking i i think

01:57:37.320 that's what's not an unreasonable request here's what his staff would tell you not his presidential

01:57:42.040 staff his staff on the real estate development and everything else uh i don't know what he's

01:57:48.680 thinking but i know it'll be good because they know his yes they know his goal is to further the

01:57:56.920 trump corporation you know make it bigger better yeah i agree and i think that can be said for the

01:58:02.680 first president since maybe ronald reagan i think i can say i don't think this guy has an ulterior motive

01:58:08.680 on anything he may have ideas that i don't agree with sure but he loves the country and wants he's

01:58:15.240 just trying to do what's right for the country and i don't think that's that debate here at all for

01:58:20.040 me at least i mean i think obviously the left thinks he's correct he's fascist super correct but i

01:58:25.640 don't think i've been able to say that about any president so i think i would feel like i would be

01:58:29.960 on on his real estate team if i was sitting in the room and i'd be like what the hell we were just

01:58:35.480 we're not going back to the plaza yeah but i i mean as a person who's not on his real estate team i

01:58:40.520 think it's and just a citizen of the country i think it's okay to ask questions about this of course

01:58:45.240 it is of course it is i'm just saying and his real estate team would have gone i don't know what 0.86

01:58:51.000 he's doing but he's doing something basically yeah let him shut up shut up yeah you know what 0.81

01:58:57.320 i mean and that's what and i've been in the room with you when you've done stuff like that where

01:59:00.920 you're just like i don't know where he's going with this but okay let's see what happens i can't

01:59:05.000 wait to see how all this plays out my my only issue is i think in a lot of these a lot of this i understand

01:59:11.000 right like where usually he is looking for a win-win situation but the question is i don't even know

01:59:16.200 what he considers the win like i think america coming uh back i think in what way i think i think

01:59:25.640 if we had total free uh tariff free world real true free trade be a huge win so for the whole world

01:59:34.040 and us but would that would mean fewer manufacturing jobs in the united states yeah and he would consider

01:59:40.040 that a win i think because he also understands i mean look what he's doing with high tech look what

01:59:45.000 he's doing with ai sure he's hanging out with elon musk do you think elon musk they're sitting there

01:59:49.960 talking on the golf course yeah it's an odd couple you think well they're because he doesn't play golf

01:59:54.840 so elon has nothing to do but drive the cart and talk and think okay right um and you know he's not

02:00:02.560 saying you know what i can't wait till we rebuild those steel factories in pittsburgh trump's not a dummy

02:00:08.280 he knows those kinds of jobs are not coming back he just needs america to to uh uh be prosperous

02:00:18.200 free because if we then dominate on uh chips and everything else that's why he's going after greenland

02:00:27.360 um if we dominate on those things a free market is great for the united states if not fine bring the jobs

02:00:37.540 back i personally think he's a little of both i personally think he is bring some of the jobs back

02:00:45.460 we have to be able to build our own ships we have to be able to build our own chips we have to be able

02:00:51.820 to build and make our own medicine you know what i mean so there are some manufacturing jobs that i

02:00:57.580 think he would take that keep the tariff high to make those jobs come back because we have to be

02:01:03.000 self-sufficient on some things and usually the approach on that is is targeted tariffs right yes

02:01:07.580 um that's not what what we've had here no but nobody started to negotiate yet right so maybe that's

02:01:12.700 what he's leading i don't know again i'm these are open questions for me and i know you're trying to

02:01:16.900 translate as much as i am you know we we had this conversation earlier um because i got off and he

02:01:23.040 was like i've never seen you give stew said this to me i've never seen you give so much deference

02:01:28.340 to a president yeah because i mean you know again you're someone who has been i mean you're i mean

02:01:35.940 i hate to say this too because it's too complimentary but it's like you're a thought leader

02:01:39.200 on as part of the conservative movement and have been for 20 years that's just a true it's just a

02:01:45.240 true statement i know the world i'm not interrupting him because it hurts him to say that it does i hate

02:01:49.680 it and i don't think it's good for the country to be clear but like people come to you to see how

02:01:56.400 you approach these situations and you get to get they listen to this show to get your analysis on

02:02:01.460 what the president is doing as for one thing and your analysis at one point today seemed to be

02:02:07.600 basically like my entire life i've thought that this was a bad idea but donald trump's doing it so

02:02:13.400 i'm going to let him do it and i'm just going to give him the benefit of the doubt well that's i mean

02:02:17.000 that's a way that's a kindergarten simple simplification yeah i get your point very very

02:02:22.420 very bluntly it's simple intentionally it's you so i am trying to you've kind of taken all that

02:02:28.600 good glow away yes exactly i have to it's part of my job um but you know i that being said people

02:02:36.820 come to you to know and and when you're saying hey i'm giving trump deference here i'm giving him

02:02:41.720 the benefit of the doubt i mean are you just doing it blindly yeah i'm doing it because he is he's one of

02:02:48.200 the best businessmen and negotiators on the planet if not the best sure okay yeah very good he has

02:02:53.420 proven to me over and over and over again that uh his gut is really very good doesn't make it

02:03:00.220 infallible it just means it's very very good um he is also offering something that is very big and bold

02:03:09.200 not what i would offer not that is the the conservative you know a dream come true um but

02:03:18.700 he offered it up the american people voted let me say it this way yeah you and i have been together

02:03:26.500 for a long time and you and i know when i have an idea on something and it's big you know i'll go

02:03:34.960 into a room and and i'll bring everybody in and usually almost everybody advises me don't do that

02:03:43.800 right does occasionally it happens okay when i'm in that game changing mode where i'm like you know

02:03:50.520 what let's leave fox let's start our own thing let's whatever everybody advises me not to do it

02:03:57.600 i was a proponent of one more contract with them yeah i said at the time and i was like yeah let's do

02:04:02.540 two more years i know so so but when we're in we have that discussion openly yeah okay but when

02:04:10.660 we're done we walk out of the office and somebody says to you stew did you tell him i mean that's

02:04:17.220 insane what what do you what do you say your uh context again you're saying this is the this is

02:04:23.440 somebody who was outside of that room and you know well this is you know i say this is glenn's

02:04:27.960 way of thinking and and and it's important you know like we we have the decision is made it's it's

02:04:33.200 the same thing as you're if you're the vice president we've talked about this with the

02:04:35.500 vice president before if you disagree with the president of the united states you say it to him

02:04:39.440 in private but you're part of the administration it's part of your job to go along with the big

02:04:43.460 choices it never helps a company if you have somebody on the outside that won't get on the

02:04:48.720 team they'll just be like uh that's not gonna work it's not gonna work you're like you're not

02:04:52.940 helping doesn't okay doesn't help that's what i think america needs to understand we had that

02:04:58.860 meeting in november he's been saying all of this stuff that's true he's been promising this forever

02:05:06.200 forever i cannot say he's hitting us by surprise or no so we all decided now let's be the company

02:05:13.380 and the company employees that go okay i'm still not sure but i'm giving him the benefit of the doubt

02:05:20.660 because we all decided in that meeting now if it doesn't work that doesn't mean we go he's a

02:05:27.620 genius look we're all poor didn't it work out well no it didn't um right we we hold him accountable

02:05:35.100 for his decisions and his performance after you let you help get it done yeah you let him go with

02:05:41.640 the vision that we all agreed on and signed up for and then hold him accountable when it's done

02:05:48.960 it worked or it didn't work i believe there's a chance that it works it's not the option i would

02:05:54.800 choose but i think it could work and what i know won't work is what we've already been doing for the

02:06:01.320 last you know 100 years this whole thing it all has to dramatically change i know that doesn't work

02:06:09.680 and i haven't heard anyone who's in power have a better idea i'm staying with the thing that we all

02:06:15.980 agreed to in november all right let me tell you about uh real estate agents i trust this company

02:06:21.560 that i started uh years ago real estate agents you know it's not just somebody who shows you a house
