00:03:17.340 remember it's two weeks between the championship game and the super bowl i keep losing this week
00:03:21.320 first i don't know why it's losing this week not in this era days pass and you don't know but uh yeah
00:03:27.540 they get two weeks to to heal to get ready for the big game so i've got another week so there's a there's
00:03:32.800 a few things that are going on of note uh let's just first start with how i think how competent
00:03:41.020 this administration is all of the people that are being put into roles how competent they are
00:03:46.820 let's start with an interview with steven miller uh with jake tapper i mean you can see the disgust
00:03:55.620 in jake tapper's face he's he's he's pretty transparent listen to this how does president
00:04:03.700 trump make sure that the effort to deport people who are not in this country legally doesn't end up
00:04:10.340 hurting americans who want safe borders absolutely but also don't want to see even more higher prices
00:04:18.500 and groceries well i mean i'm sure it's not your position jake you're just asking the question
00:04:23.400 that we should supply america's food with exploitative illegal alien labor i obviously
00:04:30.220 that's what you're implying only one percent of alien workers in the entire country work in agriculture
00:04:36.000 the top destination for illegal aliens are large cities like new york like los angeles and small
00:04:44.140 uh industrial towns of course all across the heartland that we as we've seen with the
00:04:48.060 biden floods none of those illegal aliens are doing farm work those 30 000 legal aliens that
00:04:53.740 joe biden dumped into springfield i'm talking about the ones that no no no but i'm no no but
00:04:57.360 i'm explaining this it's important to understand now you're kind of changing the subject i mean
00:05:00.640 i'm talking about i will i will change the subject really i don't we don't have your audience i don't
00:05:06.560 want to have a third i'm talking about the ones that could that that work in the agriculture industry
00:05:10.260 you can come back and we can talk about the ones in the cities i swear i'll do the i'll do the
00:05:14.740 whole answer the illegal aliens that joe biden brought into our country are not full stop doing
00:05:19.940 farm work they are not the illegal aliens he brought in from venezuela from haiti from nicaragua
00:05:26.400 they are not doing farm work they're in our cities collecting welfare as for the farmers
00:05:30.740 there is a guest worker program that president trump supports over time as well we will transition
00:05:36.720 into automation so we'll never have to have this conversation ever again i think there's no
00:05:41.300 universe in which this nation is going to allow the previous president to flood our nation with
00:05:47.640 millions and millions of illegal aliens who just get to stay here uh i think that is a totally
00:05:52.360 reasonable answer and i really think that we should start asking people about farm labor and cheap labor
00:05:59.400 and they they're using that as a as a defense oh i'm sorry i didn't realize we were in the 1850s
00:06:06.460 again um okay so you have no no problem with exploiting people as long as they're out picking
00:06:13.320 your food okay i got it i just want to understand where you're coming from because that is what
00:06:19.520 they're arguing it's amazing too like the media really hates donald trump i'm not breaking news with
00:06:25.140 that um but they may hate steven miller more they can't stand him yeah and uh you know i will say you
00:06:33.420 might not agree with with steven miller's uh opinion on these things he knows this stuff really
00:06:38.280 well i mean oh yeah you're not gonna like he knows immigration issues these are the issues that got
00:06:43.420 him to the position he's in and you're not going to get on there and stump him on that stuff and i
00:06:49.220 think everyone needs to learn from what this administration is saying uh what they've been
00:06:54.640 saying for the last couple of days is are you okay i just want to be on the record with you
00:07:01.640 are you okay saying that we should exploit people for cheaper prices i just i because it puts you
00:07:09.500 it puts the democrats where they have always been since the 1800s yes it's going to affect our life
00:07:19.880 if we get rid of these slaves yes it's going to affect my lawn care prices it's going to affect my
00:07:26.780 food prices my orange prices okay that's fine i just want to make sure that i understand clearly
00:07:35.060 that that is where you stand because then we can take a conversation honestly now and we can talk
00:07:43.580 about two things is that right for you to think that or does that kind of put you back into the old
00:07:49.300 timey days with slavery because even if it's one of those things that even if it made the prices go
00:07:56.440 up slightly it would be the type of thing that i think americans would be okay with to they didn't
00:08:00.880 like the slavery thing i think we're off of that bandwagon so and it's and it's different than i mean
00:08:05.720 because i have an apple product okay i i have apple products in my house i know those are made by slaves
00:08:11.760 i hate that but it's the best product and how i justify it in my head and this is exactly the
00:08:21.180 thing they did in the 1800s as well i justified in my head is well i'll never be able to change
00:08:27.040 china i'm not going to change china and we're working to change china in any way we can but
00:08:32.940 yeah so context also matters there i mean a lot of the jobs that we again slavery it was a specific
00:08:39.520 thing yes we compare a lot of things to slavery to be clear even illegal immigrants working here
00:08:44.180 are not slaves no typically some of them are not some of them are but it is still exploitation of
00:08:50.800 people for cheaper prices and i will say especially when you're talking about china and products in
00:08:55.340 other countries you have to put context into it you know the pay that they get there if it were here
00:09:01.140 would be terrible if it's there lots of times it's the best job in the area that's not always true
00:09:06.660 but it is something that you have to consider okay so now let's go to the new press secretary
00:09:11.160 caroline levitt she was i thought really really good yesterday she did seem just a little nervous but i
00:09:17.960 mean when you're walking into a shark tank for your first day your first day absolutely but i thought
00:09:23.700 she did really well at first she started the press conference with some breaking news about the drones
00:09:29.660 cut three and before i turn to questions i do have news directly from the president of the united
00:09:35.160 states that was just shared with me in the oval office from president trump directly an update on
00:09:41.760 the new jersey drones after research and study the drones that were flying over new jersey in large
00:09:47.780 numbers were authorized to be flown by the faa for research and various other reasons many of these
00:09:55.880 drones were also hobbyists recreational and private individuals that enjoy flying drones
00:10:01.640 in meantime in the in time it got worse due to curiosity this was not the enemy a statement from
00:10:09.740 the president of the united states to start this briefing with some news how do you feel about that
00:10:14.840 that answer i mean you know me i i don't that's where you were that's kind of where i was kind of
00:10:23.120 where i figured it would land now i i that's those are words directly from president trump's mouth i don't
00:10:28.160 know why he'd lie about it and i don't think he would i don't think he would so um you know i'm
00:10:33.360 i'm not shocked by that where that lands i'm not satisfied and i know president trump is not satisfied
00:10:40.340 with these things either that's a good opening statement what i'd like to see is the transparency of
00:10:46.240 here are the documents from the faa approving these things i don't need to know what they were testing
00:10:54.540 but here's what they said the the biden administration decided to close that down
00:11:00.320 because or you know not tell you about this not spread these to the american people i don't know
00:11:06.820 why maybe it's they cause chaos but they were also very incompetent on a lot of things so i don't know
00:11:12.100 why it wasn't verified but i'd like to see the documentation that would it would help uh because
00:11:19.420 we don't trust anything anymore i i do trust donald trump to tell us the truth because i do believe
00:11:25.080 he um he answers to us i do believe that he doesn't have um an ulterior motive uh i think the
00:11:35.320 i think the shooting honestly proved that out for people i mean you were um i wouldn't say the biggest
00:11:43.560 you know theorist uh you know theorist on this but you were concerned and and and asked a lot of
00:11:48.680 questions yeah there are people who are much much more deeply into this than than you were um what's
00:11:54.340 the reaction from that side do they buy that i mean a lot of them like trump so no i think i i here's
00:12:01.180 where i would go in my mind is um uh well trump is saying that um because uh of national security
00:12:12.080 okay you can't say anything else you know what i mean yeah i think you gotta you you will go down
00:12:17.300 a road and that's why i say i would like to see the documentation just show me the documentation so
00:12:22.160 we can just write these things off we're talking to comer in uh next hour and uh it's the same kind
00:12:29.100 of thing i don't care if people are arrested anymore i just want to know the truth and i want to see it
00:12:34.980 in documents i want the proof of what was going on i want to know who was running the white house
00:12:43.200 and our country in the last six months yeah i think that is really important huge one it's like we get
00:12:50.080 we have these big things and we just kind of stop yeah like i i you know the uh there's some news on
00:12:55.680 this that broke the other day but like you know the lab leak covid situation yeah like just trying to
00:13:02.200 get away with this is that how this works like we just you know 25 million people died in the world
00:13:08.100 and we're just going to be like oh man remember that whole story about the pangolins like we're
00:13:12.800 just going to kind of shrug our shoulders and and let that go on we all lost a year of our lives and
00:13:18.000 we're just going to be like ah you know uh what's the big deal i mean i don't know exactly how you
00:13:23.420 punish them i think part part of this trump obviously is very focused on uh not only punishment but
00:13:28.760 also uh getting answers on this stuff but like we can't just let that go right same thing with this
00:13:33.520 i don't think he is i mean with the uh stopping all funding on everything to make sure for 90 days
00:13:39.960 we want to make sure this is all in line with the agenda of the united states um but also i think it
00:13:46.520 was over the weekend he stopped any communication from nih cdc any of these uh organizations you are not
00:13:55.100 to change your website you are not to make any statements on you know hey we just did a research
00:14:01.480 study this is nothing you do nothing until we get a handle on what's really going on yeah and i think
00:14:08.500 that's really good yeah i'm not saying that that wasn't a trump trump criticism i i just like it's a
00:14:13.260 society criticism like we do tend to just move on from this stuff and you know china especially here if
00:14:19.180 if the foundation of all of that chaos was them leading the letting this out of uh this lab which
00:14:25.620 i believe it was there has to be ramifications for that same thing with the last six months and i six
00:14:31.400 months isn't long enough but the last year year and a half of the biden administration where we have
00:14:35.900 multiple well-reported news stories saying that at least six people inside joe biden's inner circle
00:14:44.220 uh actively hid what he was doing behind the scenes so that he could win that election that's
00:14:51.080 not okay we have something has to be done about what happened there we need to know i want to know
00:14:57.780 every i want every single text from those six people when they were planning that out i want to know
00:15:03.460 i i want to know not only who ran the government but also who actually forced him out
00:15:11.760 who was the one that actually was it nancy pelosi was it kamala was it barack obama how did that
00:15:20.080 actually come down it's going to be an incredible i mean someone's going to write a book about it
00:15:23.720 i'm telling you this is this the corruption uh that has happened in the last four years
00:15:30.860 the american people may not understand it but they've got a pretty good gut they knew something is
00:15:38.380 really wrong uh and it you know i think that tulsi gabbard uh dni position if she i think she's going
00:15:48.140 to be the one that has the hardest time getting through i think everything else before this was
00:15:53.740 you know rookies compared to what they're going to do to her uh and this vote is secret
00:16:00.360 i got a problem with that uh we'll get into that here in just a second but that dni position is i
00:16:09.680 believe and cash patel's position at doj those are two of the most important or fbi the two of the most
00:16:17.100 important uh positions because they will you'll be able to see and they can unlock doors uh and we
00:16:27.080 have a chance at a church commission which must happen we'll get into that in just a minute let
00:16:33.240 me tell you about lear capital you know the way things are going in this country right now i mean
00:16:38.520 it is it is monumental and the momentum is monumental things are not only moving in a positive direction
00:16:47.160 but they are picking up speed uh we we have a chance of really saving our country but there is a
00:16:54.220 possibility of uh real pain as we do this this has to be played we talked to carol roth last week
00:17:00.320 and she said glenn it has to be played exactly right because interest rates if interest rates go up
00:17:09.040 uh that's real detrimental i mean joe biden all of the loans that we took they all expire in the next
00:17:17.440 four years what the what uh so we are this year going in having to ask the the world hey can you
00:17:27.300 refinance us for all of these trillions of dollars we're in a very precarious situation if anything
00:17:34.220 goes wrong we could collapse our dollar as the world reserve currency it is so important that you
00:17:40.400 understand what's going on and that you protect yourself i want you to get a uh a free report called
00:17:46.340 4200 gold that would be uh incredible and in a bad way too i mean you don't want to root for gold to
00:17:55.420 be 4200 because that means everything on earth is just on fire but there's a new report out that shows
00:18:02.120 you that there are a lot of people that are starting to say 4200 gold is headed that way in 2025 2026
00:18:09.000 i hope not but find out and protect yourself with gold or silver call your capital now 800-957-gold
00:18:16.540 800-957-gold ask how you can receive up to 15 000 in free gold or silver with a qualifying purchase
00:18:23.260 it's 800-957-gold call them now 800-957-gold 10 seconds station id
00:18:29.420 so i want to get into just a couple of other things that uh was said uh yesterday from caroline
00:18:46.920 uh levitt and uh because it it is a good basis of where where we have to go where we have to stand
00:18:55.560 first cut four on the reporter's question on truth biller thanks caroline a question that we've asked
00:19:01.140 uh your predecessors of both parties in this job when you're up here in this briefing room
00:19:05.840 speaking to the american public you view yourself and your role as speaking on advocating on behalf
00:19:11.940 of the president or providing the unvarnished truth that is you know not to lie not to obfuscate
00:19:16.520 to the american people i commit to telling the truth from this podium every single day
00:19:21.260 i commit to speaking on behalf of the president of the united states that is my job and i will say
00:19:26.680 it's very easy to speak truth from this podium when you have a president who is implementing policies
00:19:31.660 that are wildly popular with the american people and that's exactly what this administration is doing
00:19:37.320 it's correcting the lies and the wrongs of the past four years many of the lies that have been told to
00:19:42.900 your faces in this very briefing room i will not do that but since you brought up truth seek i would
00:19:48.260 like to point out uh while i vow to provide the truth from this podium we ask that all of you in
00:19:53.960 this room hold yourselves to that same standard we know for a fact there have been lies that have
00:19:58.720 been pushed by many legacy media outlets in this country about this president about his family uh and we
00:20:05.100 will not accept that we will call you out when we feel that your uh reporting is wrong or there is
00:20:11.280 misinformation about this white house so yes i will hold myself to the truth and i expect everyone in
00:20:16.640 this room to do the same this is a bad hire by trump is it it is uh she doesn't even know how to do
00:20:21.780 the job she's not even reading it yeah she you're right the job is to read every single word from the
00:20:26.480 book i know and never look up at the people you're talking to she was she didn't even look at the book
00:20:30.980 glenn what did anyone train her well why i think actually she she's kind of the old timey kind of
00:20:38.260 yeah she's going for the callback to the old timey press secretary by the way glenn uh you're a historian
00:20:43.800 of sorts yeah is it true that they ask every press secretary whether they'll tell the truth i don't
00:20:49.920 remember corinne john pierre getting that question maybe she did no i don't remember that they asked
00:20:55.280 reagan okay okay reagan's president then you go back to eisenhower okay asked eisenhower uh i know
00:21:02.680 they were all over uh calvin coolidge oh really yeah okay over him yeah i feel like there's a
00:21:09.580 couple gaps there you're not mentioning i don't know he said i've we've asked this of both parties
00:21:14.820 it's certainly possible that jen saki got that question just didn't make news because they all
00:21:19.820 believe she was going to tell the right can i can i get can i get the kjp video it's not that long ago
00:21:26.140 yeah it should be accessible to find it was she asked that question yeah maybe she was uh she went
00:21:33.080 into truth about a lot of things yesterday but truth will not be found if tulsi gabbard
00:21:42.200 uh is not confirmed or someone that you can really truly trust is going in looking for the truth that is
00:21:53.940 one of the most important positions and i'll explain coming up pat great joins us as well
00:21:58.140 this is glenn beck so i have to tell you i i i hope the trump administration somebody is going to start
00:22:09.480 uh meeting with the burner launcher people when it comes to putting burner launchers in our schools
00:22:14.860 i mean i don't want the federal government to do it but i'd like somebody of note to stand up this is

00:23:46.640 uh those hearings uh also tulsi gabbard her hearings begin tomorrow those are going to be open
00:23:52.800 um but the vote is in the skiff and here is here's the real problem tulsi gabbard has been charged by
00:24:01.640 president trump to go in and look at every single secret agency and find out what the black ops are
00:24:10.380 what have they been doing who is involved in any of this smear she's being smeared like crazy again
00:24:18.540 again by the intelligence community um and she's i think she's the most risky vote
00:24:26.420 um because it's it's a secret vote and it should not be a secret vote she is not she doesn't have any
00:24:34.100 high high top secret clearance yet she has none so she's not going to be divulging any secrets
00:24:41.880 and uh i want to know i may not have to hear everything if some things are sensitive uh then
00:24:51.220 you know i want security for the united states but this has been a secret vote since the department
00:24:57.360 of homeland security invented the job of department of national intelligence she oversees all the spooks
00:25:04.380 and uh i want to know how my representative is voting because without if they take a secret vote
00:25:11.680 then we don't know who's on our side who's not i want to be able to say wait a minute senator why did
00:25:19.080 you vote that way this is a way for them to be cowards and do things i mean the you don't understand how
00:25:26.300 many senators and congressmen have said to me in secret outside looking around being very paranoid
00:25:36.220 you carrying a phone and then say they are spying on all of us that has to stop this is oversight
00:25:46.080 so you might want to call uh your congressman uh and make sure that they vote or your senators and
00:25:53.380 make sure that they vote for tulsi gabbard uh and demand that it's not a secret vote you can make
00:25:59.280 a difference with that said before i go to pat uh let me just uh give you one other piece of news
00:26:05.100 uh that just came in from ron desantis who was on yesterday's program uh he said i want to i want you
00:26:13.360 to thank all the listeners of your program yesterday glenn who have supported uh the strong immigration
00:26:19.360 proposals in florida uh they called they wrote to the florida legislatures uh to uh insist on the
00:26:27.360 strongest law possible please keep up the calls and the letters for the provisions that are currently
00:26:34.300 missing from the legislature's latest bill so they started to make you made a difference yesterday
00:26:39.220 keep it up they're starting to move his way but you've got a lot of rhinos in florida that are
00:26:46.980 are trying to play the old game don't get desantis's bill through or you're going to lose florida you're
00:26:56.720 going to lose what you have the minute he's gone these weasels will come back in and screw it all up
00:27:02.380 again be strong and send a strong message to the legislature hello pat gray welcome hello glenn back
00:27:09.240 you just got back from uh mexico right i did yeah how was that uh it was awesome it was great it was uh
00:27:15.780 eye opening though um you know this it you realize just how much we take for granted oh yeah in the
00:27:24.240 united states every time i travel it's incredible back and go oh thank god i'm back in the united
00:27:28.440 yeah oh we jackie and i were both uh that way we nearly wept uh as we flew over the dfw area coming
00:27:37.060 back home it i mean it's it's so tragic to see what they have to put up with in mexico what do you mean
00:27:44.280 i mean it's it's a nation with incredible resources you know they have oil they have
00:27:49.340 agriculture they have very wealthy they could they could they but their leadership squanders it
00:27:56.440 because they're corrupt and uh you know it's pretty bad when you when the water is so bad
00:28:02.800 that you can't even brush your teeth with it you can't even put it in your mouth to spit it back out
00:28:08.360 because it's too dangerous to do that uh you can't even flush toilet paper down a toilet the
00:28:15.260 sewer system is so screwed up i i don't know how they put up with it i don't know why they put up
00:28:22.500 with it i i guess they're used to it now they don't they i mean again if we didn't have donald trump
00:28:29.480 we would be and eventually be in that situation and we just have to put up with it yeah they don't
00:28:35.520 have a donald trump and anybody who looks like could be a donald trump they're killed by the
00:28:39.720 cartels yeah it's true i mean it does show you what 50 or 100 years of socialism brings you yes
00:28:46.180 and corruption with corruption yes yeah and the cartels are in control of a lot of what happens
00:28:53.660 where did you go uh we went to uh valladolid first and then we went to tulum which are is tulum's
00:29:00.380 kind of a trendy new touristy area now oh well yeah you know you scream trendy i don't i know
00:29:06.000 right when people see me and hear me they think trendsetter he might not scream trendy but he does
00:29:11.960 scream tourist yeah when he's in when it's in mexico that i'm sure of so that's for sure military
00:29:17.660 presence there i know in cancun it's heavy yeah it's not as heavy as it is in cancun but they're still
00:29:23.840 pretty serious military presence you see him driving around in their in their humvees and the
00:29:29.240 jeeps uh with the ar-15s or ak-47s i'm not sure what they use and they're on the street corners on
00:29:36.540 the main strip uh where the tourists all walk down the street all day long um so there is a serious
00:29:43.980 presence but you can't even trust that no you can't and i was told when i was there hey don't ever
00:29:49.680 carry cash with you if you uh rent your car because when they pull you over they will find a
00:29:55.380 way to take it all from you uh i'm like well we have that in america it's called civil asset forfeiture
00:30:01.420 so i'm pretty used to that in mexico they have just called corruption yes and that's what they
00:30:07.680 give it a fancy name they said the cops are so corrupt there that that if you get pulled over and
00:30:12.560 they know that you have any sort of because they they offer to accept your ticket right then and there
00:30:18.080 and they usually find a way when they find that you have money to take it all so that is so can
00:30:24.320 you imagine living that way no i mean that's the that's where we were headed it is where we were
00:30:30.360 headed you couldn't trust the police you couldn't trust the fbi i mean i still don't i trust you know
00:30:36.920 my local police um but i don't trust the fbi don't trust the justice system i mean look at what
00:30:43.440 donald trump is taking on right now in this last week what it what what when you were on vacation
00:30:49.060 i'm assuming you saw some of it yes what were your what were your thoughts and did you hear anybody in
00:30:55.180 mexico say anything it felt too good to be true i mean the things that he was doing were
00:31:00.420 uh a dream just a few months ago right and remarkably he's still doing more every day every day come in
00:31:07.720 and we're like oh my gosh yeah you could tell doge is in effect with this oh yeah you know i'm sure
00:31:13.100 we'll get into it later fork in the road yeah this idea that like every single employee gets this email
00:31:18.140 say you can just respond resign to this email and then we'll pay you till september which you know may
00:31:24.160 get overturned in the courts but it's the exact thing that they did with twitter right like this
00:31:29.160 exactly started the same way it started the same way yeah the letter to the twitter employees and the
00:31:35.480 letter to the government employees started with a fork in the road yeah uh and uh and i think that's
00:31:41.660 great i don't have a problem with that i don't have a problem with it either i mean he's there's
00:31:45.180 some clause that you can pay um employees 25 000 to uh for them to resign like that's in the law it's
00:31:52.840 like the homeland security act for some reason it's in there uh but paying people till september would
00:31:57.760 go well over that for a lot of employees so they may have trouble with that particular part of it
00:32:02.320 but again all these things are getting pretty generous constantly yeah it's still generous
00:32:06.840 still saves what was it 150 million dollars a year oh it would save a fortune yeah it depends on how
00:32:12.660 many people take it right right um but i would take it if i were in the administration i'd be like you
00:32:17.780 know they're gonna find a way to cut i i've done my deal i mean unless you're hardcore i think i would
00:32:27.140 take it and i think of course this is part of the reason it's same thing elon musk did and the same
00:32:31.660 thing that he's doing here if you are an opponent of donald trump and are working at a job that you're
00:32:37.460 now executing policy that you disagree with i mean like look i'm sure there are good liberal workers
00:32:43.400 who are in there because they got in there and they wanted to do they wanted to change the world
00:32:46.760 and help people and they go in there and all of a sudden like they're cutting these programs
00:32:50.960 they probably don't want to stay in that job and so this gives them the opportunity to get out
00:32:55.440 of course there are millions and the majority are liberal in government they believe that government
00:33:04.580 is the way to fix things so they go into those government jobs yeah it makes sense we don't
00:33:09.680 believe that so we don't go into those jobs the private sector correct i get victimized by those
00:33:14.820 other people i know so i mean it's it only makes sense that our government is riddled with
00:33:21.860 uh socialist or big government people especially over the last few years with what's been happening
00:33:27.740 with our educational system they're just pumping them out like crazy yeah and this is a great way
00:33:33.620 to just you're gonna wind up getting i don't know how many people accept this a quarter i don't know
00:33:38.340 a lot probably a lot of people 10 i would think a lot i don't know whatever it is gonna be a large
00:33:43.120 raw number of people who are like you know what i'll get paid till september and i'll find a new gig
00:33:47.340 and like that's a great setup for somebody right i'd much rather pay them till september to do
00:33:54.280 nothing but there's an end date on it then continue to pay them for what they're actually doing because
00:33:59.700 whatever that is isn't working and it certainly beats severance if you get fired anyway um and we
00:34:04.680 give you two weeks and we say see ya yeah this is a way better option which was implied quite clearly
00:34:10.920 in the email yeah yeah you're probably gonna get fired anyway so you might as well take this
00:34:14.480 right and they probably are i i really think donald trump is serious this time about reducing
00:34:21.560 the size of government oh i really think he's going to yeah oh i i think he's serious about all of it
00:34:26.920 yeah i do too i mean he you know it takes on watching him now everything he told me over the summer
00:34:33.500 and during the election it it changes the way i viewed that i knew he intellectually was there
00:34:41.760 yeah but this shows that he not only was intellectually there he began planning this
00:34:48.280 a long time ago and has the basis covered the way he's doing things is is remarkable it's incredible
00:34:56.820 i mean he's said this a few times but i really think it's true i think he's he's had the most
00:35:01.820 consequential eight days in office ever in history oh yeah ever it's been intense it has been intense
00:35:08.580 and i i feel intensely good yeah uh and i will say like i feel like we've missed things i i at least
00:35:15.140 i know we have because i've we've talked about a lot of these things and i've it's impossible to do a
00:35:19.960 deep dive in all guys guys this is you and we the three of us were together during obama remember we
00:35:27.200 couldn't keep up with it the overwhelm because he overwhelmed the system the media can't keep up with
00:35:34.120 this we can't keep up with this because he's overwhelming the system it's brilliant it is using
00:35:40.480 cloward and piven in reverse against them against them i will say though this is the new norm isn't
00:35:46.800 it there's no way a democrat gets into office and doesn't do the same stuff now this is it that's why
00:35:51.560 that's why we have to win that's why we must win in two years we must win every single election
00:35:58.300 until the end of time and well no i mean no because if you can if you can codify these things
00:36:03.480 otherwise it's got to be backed up with legislation it has to be we have to stop this executive order
00:36:09.180 stuff yes uh to get a hold of the country we have to do it that way now but it's got to be codified
00:36:15.320 otherwise we're just going to keep doing this over and over again and no country will survive those
00:36:19.680 wild swings none of them pat good to have you back thank you very much pat gray on leash you can hear

00:39:13.420 kriston justice uh has just written a great piece he's going to be on with us tomorrow about
00:39:30.580 what's happening to tulsa gabbard they're just coming after her with all kinds of
00:39:35.620 smear tactics um and the she's going to go up for the uh hearing and she will be voted on
00:39:42.520 uh next week you'll see the hearing but not the vote um you'll get the raw number of the vote but
00:39:49.840 you won't get the committee vote because it's going to be voted on in the skiff and i don't know why
00:39:54.280 i think that is the coward's way out uh i think that's just i mean these people they are our eyes
00:40:01.760 and ears these are the people that oversee intelligence i want to know how they voted are
00:40:08.240 they voting for uh for transparency or not and i think that's reasonable to ask do you not still
00:40:18.640 yeah i think that's uh totally reasonable uh to ask um and i'm trying to understand the the vote here
00:40:25.660 and how how it works so they're going into committee yeah the committee run by republicans
00:40:30.600 so majority of republicans if this vote this vote will be secret from the committee the hearings will
00:40:36.580 be open then they go into a skiff and they vote the committee if she passes it means all of the
00:40:42.880 republicans voted for her if she doesn't it means uh one or two or you know many of them didn't vote
00:40:50.320 for her uh we'll know the number but we won't know who failed to stand up for her uh and then
00:40:56.940 it'll go right unless they say it and then it will go to the floor and if she passes and then that vote
00:41:02.900 will be open and you'll have everybody's name we'll get that one yeah and by the way just to remind you
00:41:07.400 how these things normally go avril haynes which was uh the she she won't she got uh it was 84 to 10
00:41:13.260 or yeah 84 to 10 was the vote it's not going to be this it's not going to be that way and you think
00:41:19.080 honestly again like if you're a democrat tulsi gabbard has changed on some things she hasn't
00:41:25.320 changed on this stuff she this was how she was when she was a democrat she is like you know very
00:41:30.900 consistent on this stuff she's like you know maybe we'll awoke into some of the woke stuff and all that
00:41:36.420 stuff but like it has nothing to do with her job here no she's still anti-war she's still you know
00:41:41.920 this is good as you're gonna do this is great for them yeah and i would i would assume you'd get
00:41:46.940 democrat votes for her but right now it doesn't seem that way you want to talk about vengeance
00:41:51.760 yeah they will make sure that she doesn't get through in any way and the the intel agencies
00:41:59.360 they are going to pull out every stop to stop her and smear her she has i think one of the most
00:42:06.380 dangerous jobs uh and the hardest to get job to be able to go in and say i'm exposing all of you
00:42:14.920 if you're doing wrong you might want to accept that resignation now
00:42:19.820 this is glenn beck i want to tell you why the berna launcher was created um the guy who actually
00:42:28.360 started a big second amendment guy carries a gun he was in uh his car and there was a road rager
00:42:33.780 that the guy just would not stop and uh so the guy who started berna uh pulled over and thinking
00:42:41.180 that he's just going to pass me well he didn't he pulled behind him he reached for his glove box
00:42:45.580 to grab his gun and then he thought no i don't want to have a gun fight uh this is just road rage
00:42:52.460 well he said it was the biggest mistake of his life because the guy just beat him to a bloody pulp on the
00:42:58.340 side of the road and he thought i i still wouldn't want to kill the guy but i i was stupid for not being
00:43:05.120 prepared at all one percent really requires um lethal uh defense one percent according to the cops
00:43:13.240 you have to have be prepared for that one percent but what about the other 99 of the times

00:45:22.740 uh his time you know in the in the spotlight in the electric chair uh we're going to be watching
00:45:30.660 this and see exactly how they cross-examine uh tulsi gabbard is tomorrow there's a lot going on
00:45:36.800 we have uh congressman james comber on with us he's from kentucky he is uh he's releasing a
00:45:44.940 or he released a book earlier this month uh all the president's money this is about biden and what
00:45:51.560 the committee found and how dirty was this thing i'd like to know are we pursuing any of these things i know
00:45:59.700 we can't necessarily put them in jail but i think all of this stuff has to be exposed so we're going to
00:46:07.000 talk about that we'll keep you up to date on everything that is happening live in uh 60 seconds
00:46:11.680 we begin first let me tell you about cozy earth i have to tell you i'm really spoiled and i am very
00:46:16.800 very grateful for being spoiled uh when uh somebody comes in and they want me to represent them if i don't
00:46:23.940 know who they are or i don't have any of their products they usually come in with their product
00:46:28.680 and say here try this uh it that's what happened with cozy earth i i'm i'm a sheet snob but i also
00:46:36.420 don't like really really expensive uh sheets because i think that's crazy uh and cozy earth came in
00:46:43.600 and i have never felt sheets like this uh and i mean it was crazy and i'm like okay all right
00:46:50.720 i probably could afford these but how much do they cost the nice thing is with 40 off they are
00:47:00.700 affordable and these are things that you're only going to get in the richest people's houses you're
00:47:06.040 going to get in the best hotels it's cozy earth and they make all kinds of stuff but their bedding is
00:47:11.440 really phenomenal actually all of it is but i want you to try their bedding it's a 10-year

00:47:36.700 slash beck all right let's go to uh james comer who is uh with us the congressman from kentucky
00:47:44.120 welcome congressman how are you i'm well thanks for having me on uh it is great to have you on i i want
00:47:50.680 to look at your book and what we found but i i want to frame it in a way of uh it's just frustrating
00:47:59.380 to talk about all this stuff that we know if nothing is going to change so tell me what you
00:48:05.980 found and how we can actually make sure this doesn't happen again on either side well we found
00:48:13.200 two things first of all obviously we found that the bidens were on the take uh what the media tried to
00:48:19.360 say about the bidens was they were in business like jared kushner and and donald trump right but what
00:48:26.380 we found in our investigation when we started subpoenaing bank records and things like this
00:48:30.760 and bank violations that was the big thing that suspicious activity reports was that they didn't
00:48:36.480 have a legitimate business they had all these llcs they had about 26 or 27 llcs and at least 20 of
00:48:45.600 them were flat out what's called shell companies they were not real legitimate businesses the banks
00:48:52.240 flagged them they said uh their client when they would ask hunter biden what is this llc he would
00:48:59.440 say it's an investment company and then the bank examiners would be communicating with each other
00:49:03.780 when we subpoenaed the emails from the bank and and they would say uh the client says this is an
00:49:10.220 investment company but it has no investments which which is a which is a shell company they were using
00:49:16.680 these shell companies to launder money from these foreign nationals and i would argue from the country
00:49:23.900 of china not from a chinese energy company like the media said according to tony babelinsky yeah it was
00:49:31.220 the chinese communist party just bribing the bidens they would then launder it in incremental payments
00:49:38.400 to 10 different family members so we found out first of all the biden family was on the take
00:49:43.660 and secondly we found out that the government knew about it that's the thing the government knew there
00:49:49.900 were four different government agencies investigating the bidens they were hot on the trail that was the
00:49:56.160 fbi the irs the department of justice and the securities and exchange commission all had ongoing
00:50:03.160 investigations and when when they would get to the point to where they would have to talk to joe because
00:50:08.800 none of this money would be happening without joe biden right and they were told to stand down
00:50:13.520 so we found out the biden's were on the take and the government knew it but there was a cover-up
00:50:18.220 now how does somebody get that kind of power to say stand down that's a great question and that's what
00:50:27.640 we call what i call the deep state these were deep state bureaucrats it wasn't necessarily
00:50:33.520 the christopher rays or the james comeys it was the the embedded bureaucrats the unelected bureaucrats who
00:50:42.440 actually run these government agencies and a lot of people think okay trump's won the election he's
00:50:48.200 come in he's going to put cash patel who who i love and i already communicate with and he's going to
00:50:53.100 he's the right guy for the job but cash is going to have to fire a lot of career people in the fbi and
00:51:00.100 and and you know the way the civil service laws are you can't fire them and that's what happened to
00:51:06.680 trump the first administration he wanted to fire some of these people in the you know the bill bars of
00:51:12.140 the world they would say oh you can't or they're going to this time they're going to try yeah they're
00:51:18.080 going to and and that's that's how you stop it because people think they shouldn't we need to
00:51:23.440 pass a law or fix this to where this doesn't ever happen again well the laws were in place the banks
00:51:29.740 notified the treasury that they thought the biden's were on the take the suspicious activity reports
00:51:36.220 that we got and i have a banking background i knew this was a big deal when we found out that
00:51:42.320 we're 150 of these suspicious activity reports i knew from being a director of a bank you don't issue
00:51:49.280 these things for for nothing because that's the bank examiners roll in when you issue one of these
00:51:54.660 and you certainly don't do it on a prominent client unless you know darn well they're committing
00:52:00.300 financial crimes and they had a you know it was reported 150 we found 170 on the biden's plus
00:52:08.300 another 50 that they were they were a part of that they were subject to so 220 bank violations
00:52:15.000 where the banks six different banks were notifying the federal government we think they're laundering
00:52:21.440 money we think they're violating the foreign agents registration act we think they're they're
00:52:26.380 violating the foreign corrupt practices act so the checks and balances were in place the government
00:52:32.160 agencies knew it but they were told to stand down and i believe and i write this in my book
00:52:37.400 that i don't believe they did it because they love joe biden i believe they they covered up for joe
00:52:44.300 biden because they hated donald trump and they didn't want donald trump to come back in office
00:52:49.280 and that's why they did it in my opinion uh also perhaps that uh the banks are getting an awful lot
00:52:57.580 of money um you know the the all the bailouts and everything else all the the cozy uh relationship
00:53:04.740 with the banks the fed and the and the federal government um bother me a great deal it because
00:53:10.980 they should have if they weren't getting any uh traction here and everybody was denying it
00:53:19.360 shouldn't they have come to the american people and said hey we just want you to know that we really
00:53:27.460 truly believe or we have canceled our business with this client um because of uh suspicious activity
00:53:35.500 or something like that shouldn't they have done that i can tell you the banks were scared to death
00:53:41.120 when i first when we flipped the house and i became chairman of the house oversight committee
00:53:46.320 one of the first meetings i had in january when we were still trying to get a speaker elected that
00:53:52.160 first week was with jamie diamond and i write about it in my book all all the president's money
00:53:57.160 and he's the ceo of jp morgan i knew jp morgan was one of the banks that had a bunch of
00:54:04.720 violations on the biden and i said i'm gonna hopefully have subpoena power in a week or two
00:54:13.020 and i just want you to know i'm gonna subpoena you and jp morgan for these bank violations and i
00:54:20.520 thought he would you know bark at me or whatever but he wanted me to have those banks and and the
00:54:27.020 other five banks you're talking about wells fargo you're talking about bank of america i mean they
00:54:32.280 wanted me to have because they were screaming they i mean you you don't issue a suspicious activity
00:54:38.640 report on someone and not get the bank examiners roll in but these banks were issuing dozens and
00:54:44.700 dozens and they had communicated amongst themselves and knew that other banks were doing the same thing
00:54:50.180 and they couldn't believe that the government wasn't doing anything and then that uh you know when
00:54:57.200 the laptop came out that uh you know they saw some of these emails on there that alluded to
00:55:04.820 the banks were after the biden and the media was saying oh there's nothing there it's rudy giuliani
00:55:10.440 making stuff up it's right wing uh crazy people like like comer saying the biden's are corrupt when
00:55:17.140 it's russian yeah collusion this is vladimir putin telling republicans what to say and i mean
00:55:24.340 to the banks i'll defend the banks in this they were very cooperative they turned over i mean they
00:55:30.120 gave us the biden bank records which which you think about the sitting president united states
00:55:36.140 the bank gave the house oversight committee wow the personal bank records of of hunter biden and jim biden
00:55:45.380 and all these shell companies or and that's how we that's how we found it out but you know how much
00:55:51.420 how much money are we talking 35 million dollars and and according to the irs whistleblowers they
00:55:59.320 never paid a penny of taxes on it now you know think about that the biden's would owe another 10
00:56:04.460 million dollars in taxes what hunter biden got prosecuted on was the one legitimate thing he did
00:56:12.220 so the one legitimate source of income that hunter biden had over a 10-year period that i've looked at his
00:56:21.240 bank record was from burisma burisma was a corrupt energy company in ukraine but it was a real company
00:56:29.420 and he was listed as a director even though he had no qualifications and they paid him an exorbitant
00:56:37.840 amount of money more than the directors of chevron exxon and mobile combined making a year he got
00:56:44.700 but but here's where he got he didn't pay taxes on it he got a w-2 on it and none of this other money
00:56:52.020 he got a w-2 on because it was it was laundered money but this was the one legitimate paycheck he got
00:56:58.300 even though it was unethical as hell and he just didn't pay taxes on it okay so what the biden's think
00:57:06.140 they don't you know taxes are only for the little people not not for the you know well i have not for
00:57:11.100 i have to tell you you're gonna have president after president after president do this stuff
00:57:15.740 if these people uh don't pay a price and whoever was involved but now they've all been uh you know
00:57:23.880 they've all been pardoned will we still move forward and expose all of the players and all everything
00:57:32.740 the people have to know this has to be on record and fully transparent
00:57:39.240 i'm begging bondi and patel to move forward on this i told them we will help on the house oversight
00:57:47.720 committee i've got you know i got fighters like marjorie taylor green and nancy mace and byron
00:57:52.940 donald and scott perry i mean andy biggs you know we want to keep moving forward but all we faced is
00:57:59.740 obstruction from the department of justice now that we have a friendly department of justice
00:58:03.780 you know if if they will will pursue this i the one set of bank records i could not get because of
00:58:11.400 you know and trump talks about this a lot presidential immunity we could not get joe biden's bank records
00:58:17.860 i would love to see joe biden's bank records because you know the the uh there were plenty of
00:58:26.180 allegations right that the fbi had that joe biden was taking bribes and things like that
00:58:32.700 we we found the money of the allegations to the biden but not to him jim biden the biden family
00:58:39.660 that's why joe joe biden had to pardon his entire family because of our investigation and and you know
00:58:46.760 somebody said well why why you know why didn't anybody go to jail we did the report and and we had
00:58:53.940 all we can do i'm a police officer can arrest someone but he can't sentence them to prison and
00:58:58.840 that's kind of like we were the police officers and and the prosecutors wouldn't take it the
00:59:04.300 prosecutors wouldn't take it they would just attack me and i wrote the book all the president's money
00:59:09.740 because the media would not cover this they would either say there was no evidence and and honestly a
00:59:16.900 lot of conservative media would would miss the point like when i'll give you an example and i write about
00:59:22.980 it in the book but
00:59:23.940 tony babalinski did a great job in a in a public hearing and he said that the money from china was
00:59:31.740 a bribe i mean this is the guy that was in the deal said the money from china was the problem is eight
00:59:37.920 million dollars and and but then he got into an argument if you'll remember with ocasio cortez
00:59:45.280 with aoc where she said rico wasn't a crime well that's all that was on the conservative media the clip of
00:59:52.860 babalinski getting into it with aoc which was good he made her look bad but at the end of the day
00:59:59.160 the the the message from the hearing should have been that the money wasn't from a chinese energy
01:00:06.000 company like the media said it was a money was a bribe from the chinese communist party okay hang on just
01:00:12.460 a second for one minute i want to come back and i want to ask you uh what are the steps and with them being
01:00:19.980 pardoned do you believe that you can uh call them in to congress for hearings and they have to testify
01:00:28.680 and if they don't what happens all right rough greens is our sponsor sandy wrote in about our dog's experience
01:00:34.320 she said our our dog beau is an 11 year old with arthritis in his joints and and along his spine
01:00:39.780 within three weeks of giving him rough greens we found him to be more energetic big improvement in our
01:00:44.860 lives and him to see him like this this exactly what we went through with uno uh rough greens is a

01:01:27.940 id we're talking to congressman uh james comer uh the uh congressman from kentucky he is the author of
01:01:45.700 all the president's money this is everything that came out of congress and the investigations
01:01:50.600 um to really detail exactly what was going on the bribes and everything else that because the
01:01:57.920 president's family now has been pardoned nobody apparently can go to jail so what are you what
01:02:05.160 are you hoping will happen well i'm hoping that uh first of all i want to see all the deep state
01:02:13.860 actors terminated and and i would love to bring them in for a public hearing to see who told them
01:02:21.780 to stand down if we could get uh testimony whether it's in a deposition or a public hearing to say
01:02:30.040 we were told to stand down by joe biden we were told to stand down by barack obama or george soros or
01:02:37.580 or whomever then i think that would uh help with with busting up the pardons you know at the end of
01:02:46.060 the day people make say joe biden didn't pardon himself well you know joe biden could easily have
01:02:52.220 a doctor go up and say he's got early forms of dementia and you you know by law you can't put
01:02:59.420 someone like that on right and they've got the her they got what robert her wrote as evidence you know
01:03:06.520 so so so uh but i think it's going to have to be the department of justice we could subpoena
01:03:12.320 the biden family but with the pardons i don't know whether they would hold up in court we've got to
01:03:18.420 have the department of justice get our back and and i think you know we've not pressed pam bondy
01:03:23.840 a lot because she's not been confirmed yet but we know she has ability to do it i've spoken to
01:03:29.700 president trump about it i mean i i think that you know the media is going to say oh this is
01:03:34.840 retribution on this it's it's accountability yeah it has to be done it has to be done we cannot
01:03:43.480 we cannot forgive i mean this started with the clintons i mean i'm sure people were doing it before
01:03:48.160 but the clintons exactly right and then joe biden just took it to a whole new level yes it's got to
01:03:55.700 stop there has to be accountability somewhere uh and where that's the business model yes that the
01:04:03.840 biden has learned from it was the clinton foundation yes and instead of putting it in a foundation
01:04:08.460 they just tried to put it in these shell companies like it was a you know like it was a legitimate
01:04:14.260 business enterprise like and that's what they would say oh we're doing exactly what jared pushner and
01:04:19.280 trump jr are doing this is an investment company but there was no investments they took the money
01:04:25.360 they laundered it and they stuck it in their personal accounts where they paid for vacations
01:04:30.860 luxury cars groceries you know just just basic living they were living off of our adversaries around
01:04:38.860 the world and and this is the the kicker that drives me crazy because joe biden wanted to double
01:04:43.820 the size of the irs to go after the tax sheets they did not pay a penny of taxes they easily owe
01:04:50.820 10 million dollars more in taxes and that to me is why he pardoned the spouses too he didn't just
01:04:58.140 pardon you know the siblings he pardoned their spouses because some of those incremental payments were
01:05:03.140 going to them as well 10 10 different biden family members including minor grandchildren at the time
01:05:10.200 got money uh james thank you so much for everything you're doing uh this is a book that everybody should
01:05:16.920 have i think in hardback uh fashion i mean you can read it online and you know and listen to it on audible

01:07:31.940 oregon taking on rfk jr but i mean he's even screaming at him it's a bizarre situation it is um
01:07:40.540 the the hearing has been interrupted several times by people screaming for i don't know save the
01:07:46.520 whales or you know uh you know stop you know toenail growth i don't know they don't say
01:07:53.440 there was a stop toenail growth guy i thought so yeah that was that was impactful he is right now
01:07:57.380 being asked questions by uh wyden uh let's listen in a bit never been very high and in 2018 two more
01:08:05.500 kids died following the mmr vaccine and the government of samoa banned the mmr vaccine
01:08:10.880 i arrived a year later when vaccination rates were already below the below any any previous level
01:08:19.540 i went there nothing to do with vaccines i went there to introduce a medical informatics system
01:08:25.940 i would digitalize records in samoa and make health delivery much more efficient
01:08:31.320 i never taught gave any public statement about vaccines you cannot find a single samoan
01:08:38.840 who will say i didn't get a vaccine because of bobby kennedy
01:08:42.400 he i went in june of 2019 the measles house break started in august
01:08:47.660 oh clearly i had nothing to do with the measles not only that
01:08:51.620 senator not only that if you let me finish
01:08:54.480 you have had some time if you let me finish so stupid there are 83 people died
01:09:02.120 when the tissue samples were sent to new zealand
01:09:05.720 not most of those people did not have measles
01:09:09.080 we don't know what was killing them the same outbreak occurred in tonga and fiji and no extra
01:09:15.300 people died there were seven measles outbreaks in the 13 years prior to my arrival would like to get
01:09:21.020 my time back the nominee wrote a book saying that people had been misled into believing that measles
01:09:28.980 is a deadly disease he's trying now to play down his role in samoa that's not what the parents say
01:09:34.440 that's not what governor green says it's time to make sure that we blow the whistle on actually what
01:09:39.840 your views are at least we're starting we need to move on to oregon from oregon
01:09:45.540 i will do nothing as hhs secretary
01:09:49.640 and makes it difficult or discourages people from taking anybody who believes that on a look at the measles book
01:09:57.780 you wrote saying parents have been misled into believing that measles is a deadly disease that's not true
01:10:03.800 we need to move on senator grassley again like if you these things could be interesting if people
01:10:09.960 actually wanted answers yeah but they're not they don't they just they just want to say their thing
01:10:13.880 right and it is it's it's same with every one of these hearings you know republicans are helpful
01:10:20.200 to rfk jr democrats are just giving a bunch of you know talking points against him and saying how evil
01:10:25.320 he is that you get very little out of these things you're sitting in that chair and it's and it's an
01:10:29.100 electric chair it just can they turn the juice up enough to kill you can they just that's all
01:10:35.820 they're trying to do they're trying to stop it and the other side's just trying to get it passed yeah
01:10:40.600 nobody's actually looking for truth i i i would like to hear you know the truth i'd like to find out
01:10:47.160 the truth the stuff that they they have been talking about i mean you know i have no problem
01:10:55.220 with vaccines at all i mean i had vaccines i had the polio oral vaccine when i was a kid
01:11:01.480 yada yada those vaccines have been in you know since the 1950s and we're fine when we started
01:11:10.480 requiring 80 vaccines that's when other things started to happen there is no reason why my kid
01:11:18.400 needs a hep a and hep b at birth they have zero chance of getting that zero zero so why do they
01:11:27.920 need that at birth well i mean it's obviously to protect you the rest of your life but yes i know
01:11:31.880 what you're saying it's yeah but we don't we don't need to put all of that stuff into our infant
01:11:37.340 children's arms in my opinion totally you should be able to say no i don't i don't want that of course
01:11:43.600 and and you shouldn't be called an anti-vaxxer for saying that and of course this is the easy
01:11:49.340 solution right i mean the bottom line is the easy solution is let people make decisions right
01:11:54.080 as to what they do why does my their own lives why does my infant need to have you know a vaccine
01:11:59.720 for chicken pox what we used to have chicken pox parties hey my son or daughter has chicken
01:12:05.820 do people really have them yeah oh yeah yeah get it out of the way you don't want them as an adult
01:12:11.160 as a i mean you know vaccines were created right like by scraping uh yes and like that's the initial
01:12:17.580 use of them was that the history um and uh the party thing is essentially the same idea right yeah
01:12:23.380 um you know look just like you're you're getting into to i think a level of specificity uh that is
01:12:30.520 unimportant at some level right like you whatever your views are whatever my views are on this stuff
01:12:35.600 i think the concern is with with him rfk is he has had activism to stop others from doing things
01:12:42.200 that was one of the things they just asked him about it they said hey you tried to prevent people
01:12:45.900 you filed a lawsuit to prevent people from getting access to these vaccines that they wanted to take
01:12:49.600 and he said well they shouldn't have wanted to take them basically because we've shown that it was
01:12:54.740 unnecessary it was the covid right actually that's the example they used although you know again he's
01:12:58.640 he's been an advocate for a long time but he was specifically talking about children
01:13:03.020 you know six-year-olds right but of course as you're talking about you want to make decisions
01:13:07.920 for your children you should be able to make decisions i do children except when except when
01:13:12.640 you don't like them no no no except when we don't we had none of the the government again yeah the
01:13:18.200 government should not have put that out for children they were not at risk for having covid
01:13:24.300 my problem is is that they endorsed it they said you have to have it uh they were pushing pushing
01:13:31.420 pushing not letting anyone with a different opinion pop their head up if it is if all of
01:13:37.620 the stuff yes if all of the stuff is out there and you have the freedom to read it yourself not
01:13:43.640 be called an anti-vaxxer not not called a a child killer or a grandma killer because you don't want
01:13:50.160 your kids uh to have the covid vaccine then i don't care i don't care do your own homework no one can
01:13:57.000 prevent that no one can prevent you be being called an anti-vaxxer when you know you have to
01:14:01.460 shrug that off and just not care about it right i think you're talking about losing your job yeah
01:14:06.460 when you're talking about losing getting kicked out of the military because you don't want to take
01:14:09.440 these things when the government is pushing it with the pharmaceutical companies that's the biggest
01:14:14.780 thing that has to happen pharmaceutical and the united states government they have to be
01:14:20.300 separate they cannot have this cozy relationship they can't spend most of their money you know
01:14:27.620 working to pass things for the fda for uh for these pharmaceutical companies but i mean he's gonna make
01:14:33.820 recommendations about whether things should be utilized or not yes that's i mean central to his
01:14:39.880 role yes right and if he gets confirmed and i think like i i think we as americans just need to
01:14:45.300 have the right to say yeah i don't care what you say like when they say when they give us the food
01:14:50.460 pyramid and i want to eat non-stop french fries i should be able to do that now he did make a comment
01:14:55.460 by the way in this uh in this thing basically saying hey my my boss really likes diet coke and hamburgers
01:15:00.700 at mcdonald's you should be able to eat them if he wants which is a really good sign yeah and i think
01:15:05.740 if that's the way he winds up doing this job he'll be fine i i do think it's important for trump to have
01:15:11.180 somebody i would argue maybe a staff of people looking at what he's doing on a daily basis because
01:15:17.060 many of we all know what his ideas on health are when it comes to let's say fossil fuel emissions
01:15:23.360 yes right there's a lot of things that worry me about rfk and do i think we could do better
01:15:27.940 yes i think however if he does the job the way he's saying he's doing the job here he'll be fine
01:15:32.520 i think uh trump is going to keep him on a tight leash he knows who he is yes you know what i mean
01:15:38.640 i think he does uh and he has he has said that you know that he is in for a specific job and that's
01:15:46.700 the job i want from him if he starts getting into global warming i mean all of that stuff trump will
01:15:52.720 stop that immediately and pull him yeah i think that's true i mean like you know you look back at
01:15:57.320 some of his previous views you can find all sorts of problems with him you know he was kind of praising
01:16:01.200 the covid lockdowns because of the effects it had on pollution right and hell and he was worried that
01:16:07.400 after the covid lockdowns which he by the way stated was helping to stop the spread of covid 19
01:16:12.800 uh he was in favor of them um but eventually obviously turned around on that position what
01:16:17.840 does he believe today he's got lots of changes you talked to him you went to an entire hour with i
01:16:21.840 talked to him about that he said he was fine with the lockdowns at first and then he saw how
01:16:28.380 how unbelievably draconian and uh fascist or communist it had become and he's not alone yeah he's not
01:16:37.020 alone a lot of people fine at the very beginning you know yeah well i mean i don't know if we were
01:16:41.820 fine but no but still when when the when the government said stay home we don't know what
01:16:46.900 we're doing i i thought that was a mistake for the economy i thought it was going to cost us
01:16:51.760 real problems sure but that seemed reasonable at first you know uh what was it 15 days to slow the
01:17:00.180 spread when it when it came past easter um like this is not good this is not good um and a lot
01:17:07.960 of people began to wake up and that's a really good thing and that's what he says was his turning
01:17:14.200 point on big government right and when that's if he's had that real transition i mean he obviously
01:17:18.800 was still running for president against donald trump and advocating for a lot of big government
01:17:22.580 positions so i mean i don't think the skepticism is as deep as maybe we find it right but in this
01:17:26.920 particular role if he happens to be uh if he does the role the way he's kind of saying he will do it
01:17:32.320 and my belief is he will kind of have to because trump will force him to i don't know that that's
01:17:38.720 inside of him at all frankly but trump will fire the guy yeah if he sucks so if that as long as he goes
01:17:46.340 into this with an idea of like he does he's got some really good things he's talking about some things
01:17:50.600 i really support but i gotta watch him like a hawk yeah as long as that happens i've had conversations
01:17:55.960 with the president that has made it very very clear he's in that's good for one job that's good
01:18:02.960 i yeah just a matter of how he executes that job yes it is all right back in just a second um you
01:18:08.620 know i have always uh run my company in my life by surrounding myself uh with people that are smarter
01:18:15.260 than than i am that's not difficult um but if you do that especially in places where you're not an
01:18:22.700 expert you don't know um you know if i if somebody you know wants to come in and tell me how to use
01:18:28.820 i don't know something as complex as a microphone you put it in front of your face i don't think they
01:18:34.680 have a lot to teach me but almost everything else in life i can learn a lot when it comes to real
01:18:40.540 estate i knew nothing i started working with the 500 best real estate agents in the country according
01:18:46.660 to the wall street journal and i learned from them i asked them questions i i found there is

01:21:23.700 i gotta tell you uh michael bennett from colorado the democrat is speaking now can we listen in a
01:21:42.740 little bit questions yes or no i've tried to ask these in a manner that's faithful to what you
01:21:48.540 actually said because i didn't want to have a debate about whether you actually said them
01:21:52.340 so i'm asking you yes or no mr kennedy did you say that covet 19 was a genetically engineered
01:21:59.880 bioweapon that targets black and white people but spared ashkenazi jews and chinese people
01:22:06.260 i i didn't say it was deliberately targeted i just i just quoted an nih funded an nih
01:22:14.960 published study did you say that it targets black and white people but spared ashkenazi jews
01:22:22.260 i quoted a study your honor i quoted an nih study that showed that i'll take that as yes
01:22:27.360 yes if he's quoting a study did you say that lyme disease is a is highly likely a materially
01:22:36.800 engineered bioweapon i made sure i put in the highly likely did you say lyme disease is a highly
01:22:43.340 highly likely militarily engineered bioweapon i probably did say that did you say that
01:22:50.080 and that's what i want all of our colleagues to hear mr kennedy i mean i want bennett he just i'm
01:22:57.100 sure he's not a dope but he i mean he sounds like herona a little bit don't you think i mean just
01:23:03.000 did you write in your book and i it's undeniable that african american african aids is an entirely
01:23:17.680 different disease from western aids yes or no mr kennedy i'm not sure if i made that i'll give it to the
01:23:25.060 chairman mr mr kennedy and my final question did you say on a podcast and i quote i wouldn't leave
01:23:32.500 it abortion to the states my belief is we should leave it to the woman we shouldn't have the
01:23:39.080 government involved even if it's full term did you say that mr senator i believe every abortion
01:23:46.460 is a tragedy did you say it mr kennedy this matters it doesn't matter what you come here and say
01:23:54.100 that isn't true that's not reflective of what you really believe that you haven't said over
01:23:59.540 decade after decade after decade because unlike other jobs we're confirming around this place
01:24:04.620 this is a job where it is life and death is bennett pro-life that i used to work for in the
01:24:10.680 denver public schools they asked families all over this they asked the question earlier they're trying
01:24:15.140 to frame him actually as a guy who is who may ban abortion but i think what they're trying to do here
01:24:21.060 is tickle the ears of pro-life senators who might be like wait a minute he said that um which again
01:24:27.700 i i as a pro-life person it does bother me i just don't think that he's saying he's not doing do those
01:24:35.800 things trump if he said you know what all abortion all the way up to birth trump's not gonna let him do
01:24:44.280 that of course i mean he had no power to do that either it's not going to happen the real question when
01:24:49.080 it goes to this and again i don't know if you if you care enough on this but like i know you do as
01:24:53.400 far as far as the issue but i'm saying generally when it comes to his approval you know when trump
01:24:58.000 came into office the first time he went through hhs and found he hired people who like a hawk went
01:25:05.760 through and found funding for abortion that was going overseas correct things like that he eliminated
01:25:10.840 it correct biden came in put it all back into off put it all back into effect the question is will
01:25:15.920 rfk jr as a guy who has been pro-choice his entire life is he going to doggedly search for such things
01:25:22.280 is he going to reverse those biden initiatives i mean it's not his priority will he just do what trump
01:25:27.740 wants i mean that's what he's kind of saying he will so i hope he that's true uh i think he will
01:25:32.500 because trump is going to give him room to run in show me the evidence come back to me within the
01:25:38.780 first two years and tell me why you think the best science out there why are we getting so sick
01:25:46.160 why uh what is our food doing to us what are our vaccines actually doing to us why are we so sick
01:25:52.520 that's what trump wants the rest of it the trump dogs i believe will be on i mean
01:25:58.020 trump is has shown himself to be very very aware of where the bad guys are hiding
01:26:06.100 this is glenn beck
01:26:09.720 this is glenn beck
01:26:09.760 this is glenn beck

01:26:39.880 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:26:42.520 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:26:45.300 Yeah.
01:26:47.200 Down the road
01:26:48.540 where shadows hide.
01:26:50.340 Feel the dark on every sky.
01:26:52.920 Stand your ground
01:26:53.940 when times get dark.
01:26:55.420 Gotta face the dark
01:26:56.680 and embrace the fire.
01:27:00.120 The Fusion
01:27:00.920 of Entertainment
01:27:02.000 and Enlightenment.
01:27:03.380 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:27:33.380 That I think has the fingerprints of Elon Musk, but I don't know.
01:27:38.500 And that is the federal government freezing most forms of financial assistance.
01:27:44.340 Freezing it for 90 days.
01:27:47.300 Okay, on the surface, when you are $4 trillion over budget, probably not a bad idea.
01:27:54.540 Can we hold off for 90 days and let's see what we're spending.
01:27:58.580 However, you know, Meals on Wheels, I don't know if they were involved.
01:28:04.340 But, you know, any government assistance from Meals on Wheels, that's not kind of that.
01:28:08.800 Really? I mean, unless Meals on Wheels, Hamas.
01:28:13.300 Anyway, we'll get into that here in just a second.
01:28:15.840 First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
01:28:19.020 We begin the show in 60 seconds.
01:28:20.920 Thank God we have a pro-Israel president back in the Oval Office.
01:28:24.080 That's one among many of the reasons I'm actually happy that Donald Trump is in office.
01:28:29.600 When he appointed Mike Huckabee, did you see what one of the first things Mike Huckabee said and did?
01:28:34.980 No longer the West Bank.
01:28:37.500 We will no longer call it the West Bank.
01:28:40.100 It's Judea and Samaria.
01:28:42.100 That's great.
01:28:43.120 That's huge.
01:28:44.900 As Christians, we need to recognize our brotherhood with the Jews.
01:28:48.520 We want to help them in their time of need, and the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is doing their part, not only in helping remember, but also providing food, shelter, and safety to Jews in Israel and around the world, including those remaining Holocaust survivors.
01:29:04.940 It was International Holocaust Remembrance Day last Monday.
01:29:08.680 Will you donate today?
01:29:10.700 You'd be helping to provide food, water, medicine, basic necessities to Jewish communities.
01:29:15.360 Give a gift to show people the support you have for the Jewish people by visiting supportifcj.org.
01:29:22.000 That's supportifcj.org.
01:29:25.060 Or you can call 888-488-IFCJ.
01:29:28.340 888-488-IFCJ.
01:29:31.060 Supportifcj.org.
01:29:33.500 Okay.
01:29:34.840 Where should we begin, Stu?
01:29:37.420 Should we start with the golden parachutes?
01:29:41.340 Ah, yes.
01:29:42.420 The email?
01:29:43.060 Yeah.
01:29:43.660 I mean, this is Doge entering the chat.
01:29:46.560 Like, this is, Doge has turned, I don't know if it's a fully powered battle station quite yet, but it's definitely powering up.
01:29:53.240 Yeah, it's, I mean, I think we're not far away from a million voices crying out and then suddenly being silenced.
01:30:01.960 It's kind of one of those things, because this is straight out of the Twitter playbook from Elon Musk.
01:30:06.600 I mean, it starts the same way.
01:30:08.560 In fact, do we have the Fork in the Road tweet?
01:30:12.240 Okay, so let me show you the Fork in the Road is an art piece that Elon Musk, I guess, financed in the, it looks like it's in the middle of nowhere.
01:30:24.180 It looks like a giant road and a giant fork sticking out of it.
01:30:28.560 Well, I had no idea this part of it.
01:30:30.880 Yeah, this is real.
01:30:31.920 I mean, I know the phrase, he put a fork in a road.
01:30:34.660 No, he put a giant, he had a road built where it Y's off and there's a gigantic fork sitting in the middle of it.
01:30:42.980 So this is a thing with him.
01:30:45.480 Kind of a fork in the fork.
01:30:47.860 Right.
01:30:48.300 Because the road forks by itself when it turns into the Y, but it's a fork in the fork.
01:30:52.800 Yes, thank you.
01:30:53.860 You don't have to bleep that on stations, so you know.
01:30:57.340 It feels close to it, but you don't have to.
01:30:58.740 Yeah, you use the F word a lot there.
01:31:00.860 I do.
01:31:01.200 So when he went to Twitter, he put a fork in the road memo out that said, hey, you might want to get out now because it's going to be a different place here.
01:31:16.540 So I'm giving you an opportunity to bail right now.
01:31:19.460 Just let me know.
01:31:21.400 And he said at the very beginning, it's a fork in the road.
01:31:24.980 They've just issued a memo that is almost exactly like it, except it's got a bunch of subsections, you know, one CV and, you know, a little more legalistic, a little more legalistic.
01:31:37.200 But Trump is offering people the money to to not be hit with a giant fork.
01:31:46.080 Yeah, it's it's it's sort of two approaches.
01:31:48.880 One is anybody who wants to leave right now will pay you to September.
01:31:53.760 So we'll give you a very nice eight, nine month ramp here to get a new gig.
01:31:58.640 If you don't want to work here, please go.
01:32:01.380 And of course, this combines with a hiring freeze.
01:32:03.800 Right.
01:32:04.220 So the idea is, I don't know, five, 10, 25 percent of people accept this deal and you shrink the government employment and then you don't rehire those people.
01:32:13.440 This is a way you cut.
01:32:14.640 This is the way he did it at Twitter.
01:32:16.800 And then secondarily, it's sort of carrot and stick approach.
01:32:20.020 The carrot is, hey, we'll pay you to September for no work.
01:32:22.600 It's great for you.
01:32:24.360 And then the stick is, by the way, if you stick around, we'll probably fire you anyway.
01:32:28.220 That's kind of what the tone of it is.
01:32:30.340 It is like, look, I'm sorry if you stick around, we're really going to be cutting.
01:32:33.800 So it might be you.
01:32:35.240 This is what it actually says.
01:32:36.380 During the first week of his administration, President Trump issued a number of directive directives concerning the federal workforce.
01:32:42.900 Among those directives, the president required that employees return to in-person work.
01:32:47.740 Do you know what that number is?
01:32:48.960 How many federal employees actually show up for work since the beginning of COVID-19?
01:32:56.500 You know, I don't know the number.
01:32:57.740 What is it?
01:32:58.180 Take a guess.
01:32:58.960 I mean, we're now many, many years past COVID-19, Glenn.
01:33:03.480 What is the number of federal workers that are actually showing up for work?
01:33:09.040 I have to guess it's very low.
01:33:14.020 But if I were just to guess without any pre-knowledge, I would have to say it was like 60.
01:33:19.240 Right?
01:33:19.680 I don't know.
01:33:20.820 I mean, 40% of people not showing up seems significant.
01:33:23.760 The number of people not showing up to work is 94%.
01:33:28.240 Only 6% of federal workers are showing up.
01:33:32.820 Even with the knowledge that it was going to be a low number, I'm shocked by that.
01:33:36.760 6%?
01:33:37.880 6.
01:33:38.700 No way.
01:33:39.760 It is 6%.
01:33:41.640 Certain categories?
01:33:43.280 I mean, like, you go to the Pentagon right now, it's 94% empty?
01:33:48.100 That can't be true.
01:33:48.800 I don't know about the Pentagon.
01:33:49.980 Okay.
01:33:51.100 So maybe there's certain areas of the government.
01:33:53.940 Well, I do know this also, that the mayor of Washington, D.C. said all of our businesses are dying.
01:34:02.000 And said this to Biden.
01:34:03.880 You have got to get people to go back into those buildings or let those buildings loose and let's bring other businesses into Washington, D.C.
01:34:13.040 Because we're holding them empty, essentially.
01:34:14.440 We're holding them empty so there's no business on the street.
01:34:17.280 Because nobody's coming in.
01:34:19.540 So restaurants are going out.
01:34:21.780 You know, shops just that aren't, you know, for tourists are all going out.
01:34:26.300 Now, if complete economic destruction happened to Washington, D.C., would you be able to tell the difference?
01:34:31.880 No.
01:34:32.280 I guess the question.
01:34:33.060 No.
01:34:33.160 We were just there.
01:34:34.140 I think if there was a raging wildfire, I'm not sure I could tell the difference.
01:34:38.860 Among those directives, the president required employees to return to work in person, restored accountability for employees who have policymaking authority.
01:34:48.460 Let me hang on.
01:34:48.920 And I think I hear the knives sharpening here, restored accountability for senior career executives and reform the federal hiring process to focus on merit as a result of the above orders.
01:35:01.300 The reform of the federal workforce will be significant.
01:35:06.920 Want out?
01:35:07.960 Yeah.
01:35:08.480 Take your out now.
01:35:09.820 And like it does a couple of things.
01:35:11.980 I would.
01:35:12.540 It's interesting because, I mean, he sent it to everyone.
01:35:15.600 Basically said none of you are essential.
01:35:19.780 Any one of you can be replaced, which is a message you send, an important message.
01:35:24.200 You're not too important, essentially.
01:35:25.400 I know you've worked here for three decades and you're a career employee and all that.
01:35:29.760 It doesn't mean anything anymore.
01:35:31.020 Okay?
01:35:31.560 That's one message it sends.
01:35:32.500 It also sends a message, I think, to, if you put yourself in a position of, you know, you're someone on the left who got into government because you have left-leaning ideas.
01:35:42.100 Why else would you get into government?
01:35:44.140 It's true.
01:35:45.040 It's one of our problems, by the way.
01:35:46.060 I can't think of a reason on the right why to get into government except to stop the people on the left.
01:35:50.800 And that is a real problem.
01:35:52.520 Yeah, it is.
01:35:53.040 Because it's the same thing with universities.
01:35:54.800 Like, you know, we don't go in there and we don't mix it up in those areas and then they take them over.
01:36:00.760 Yes.
01:36:01.080 But let's say you're someone who leans left.
01:36:04.800 You know, you get in there because you want to make, you think you support all these big taxes and big government programs.
01:36:10.080 And you're working on administrating them and now you realize, okay, Trump's coming in.
01:36:14.160 He's going to try to cut this anyway.
01:36:16.340 Do I really want to be here supporting, like, cutting people and not distributing this money I think is so important?
01:36:22.880 Maybe I do just take it, right?
01:36:24.340 Like, just because I'm opposed and I don't want to go through this agenda, I don't want to be responsible for these evil cuts.
01:36:29.940 So maybe I just take the money and leave.
01:36:32.000 I think if you're a career politician or a career, you know, government worker, if you've put in your time and they're going to give you, you know, a really good exit package.
01:36:46.020 I don't know if you're, if you've been there for 25 years, do I get, do I get my pension?
01:36:51.980 Yeah, you probably do.
01:36:53.420 Yeah.
01:36:53.580 So, you know, I would, I would definitely look at it.
01:36:56.760 If I had been there for a long time, I'd be like, I think I'm getting out now.
01:37:00.120 Because you just don't know.
01:37:01.600 Yeah.
01:37:01.840 I mean, you know, Vivek Ramaswamy said, we should just say everybody with an odd social security number and ends in an odd number, you're fired.
01:37:11.960 What helps him here, because there are dumb protections built into some of these places for civil service types that it makes it sometimes difficult to fire them.
01:37:21.960 And this is like sort of like the self-deportation option when it comes to the border, right?
01:37:26.920 You go, you go, just you, you take it.
01:37:28.660 It's optional for you.
01:37:30.800 And if they do that, you not only will likely get rid of more people that are trying to thwart your efforts because they're typically going to be more likely to take that deal.
01:37:39.300 But you also get a good portion of your cuts done without having to make the cuts.
01:37:43.900 Right.
01:37:44.440 There are some legal questions to this.
01:37:46.800 And, of course, it's going to get challenged.
01:37:49.140 There is a clause, I think it's in the Homeland Security Act, that allows the government to offer employees $25,000 to resign, essentially, if they want to make cuts.
01:37:59.400 So that much of it is pretty much straightforward protected.
01:38:03.200 When you say all the way to September, some of those numbers will go above $25,000.
01:38:07.300 And there they might get legal challenges.
01:38:09.940 That's amazing.
01:38:10.880 Yeah.
01:38:11.620 People would challenge it.
01:38:12.900 They're giving us more than $20,000.
01:38:14.900 You're giving us too much money.
01:38:15.900 That'll never happen.
01:38:16.820 But in reality, what it is, of course, is the left doesn't want these employees to go away.
01:38:21.060 They don't want the size of government to shrink.
01:38:23.500 So they'll find any legal loophole they can to challenge what he's doing.
01:38:26.380 Wouldn't it be fascinating to see the conversations of people right now in Washington, D.C.
01:38:32.880 that are those diehards?
01:38:36.220 I mean, because he's doing exactly what he's doing on the border to the government.
01:38:42.740 He is.
01:38:43.980 We're coming for the bad guys, and we're going to cut.
01:38:47.240 There's no more fooling around.
01:38:49.060 There's a new sheriff in town.
01:38:51.120 And he hopes, just like on the border, he's going to get the bad guys.
01:38:55.080 But a lot of people, as you just said, will self-deport.
01:38:58.260 I just don't want any part of it.
01:38:59.840 Yeah, I don't want any part of it.
01:39:00.880 I just want to go home.
01:39:01.260 Not to mention, nine months of pay, right?
01:39:04.880 Combine that if you happen to be an entrepreneurial type of leaving a job, getting paid for nine
01:39:10.000 months, and then getting another job.
01:39:11.620 Oh, if you could get-
01:39:12.600 I mean, it could be great for your finances.
01:39:13.820 If you had another job, if you knew you could get another job, you'd be stupid not to take it.
01:39:18.520 Yeah, to get paid for nine months for doing nothing.
01:39:20.180 Now, of course, it's taking it out of our pockets, which I'm not exactly thrilled about.
01:39:23.200 But long term, it's great.
01:39:25.100 Yeah, if he gets enough people, it's like $100 or $150 million a year is what they're
01:39:30.660 expecting to get out of this.
01:39:32.760 That's a lot of savings.
01:39:36.300 I mean, it's a drop in the bucket, unfortunately.
01:39:38.520 No, I know it is.
01:39:39.360 I know it is.
01:39:39.780 So $150 million a year is a pretty small rate of acceptance.
01:39:44.440 Is it a million or billion?
01:39:44.840 I have to look that up.
01:39:46.140 Yeah.
01:39:46.320 Because as I said that, I'm like, you know, you don't pay attention.
01:39:48.860 Million, billion, trillion, trillion, whatever.
01:39:50.500 It just doesn't matter anymore.
01:39:51.800 Just wait till the quadrillions hit.
01:39:53.180 Then you'll know.
01:39:53.800 Oh.
01:39:54.200 Then you'll know.
01:39:54.820 And million will seem like, you know, it's like it, you know, it used to be like, they're
01:40:00.100 a millionaire.
01:40:01.760 And then it became, they're worth like $100 million.
01:40:06.360 And then it became, they're a billionaire.
01:40:09.720 It's going to be soon, they're a trillionaire.
01:40:13.240 You knew we crossed that line when Bernie Sanders needed to take millionaires out of his
01:40:18.460 speeches because he used to say millionaires and billionaires.
01:40:21.760 And now he just says billionaires because he's a millionaire.
01:40:24.380 And it's like hilarious that Mr. Socialist with his multiple houses can't even criticize
01:40:30.600 millionaires anymore.
01:40:31.340 Because he's most likely a millionaire.
01:40:33.300 He is.
01:40:34.120 I mean, how does a socialist get that?
01:40:36.560 I mean, he's making a decent six-figure salary and has been forever.
01:40:39.880 He's got multiple houses.
01:40:41.120 Just the equity in those homes, I'm sure, makes him a millionaire.
01:40:44.740 You know, I mean, he's pretty, he wants to spend everyone else's money if he spends like
01:40:48.620 that, I guess, in his own life.
01:40:49.800 He doesn't seem to be all that, he doesn't seem to take advantage of like fancy cars or
01:40:54.620 anything like that that we know of.
01:40:56.360 But he's got a couple of nice houses.
01:40:57.940 Or hair products.
01:40:58.140 He doesn't need those.
01:40:58.820 He saves on hair products.
01:40:59.960 Saves a lot.
01:41:00.280 That's for sure.
01:41:00.760 All right.
01:41:00.880 Let me tell you about Relief Factor Sleep.
01:41:02.460 When you walk through your front door in the morning or out your front door, you hear the
01:41:05.660 birds singing.
01:41:06.200 Do you feel like, oh, you know what?
01:41:07.460 This is great.
01:41:08.160 Or do you feel like throwing rocks at him?
01:41:10.320 Shut up.
01:41:11.280 I couldn't sleep.
01:41:13.800 I mean, how you answer that question says a lot about the quality of sleep you get the
01:41:18.140 night before.
01:41:19.980 Relief Factor has Relief Factor Sleep called Z Factor.
01:41:24.240 It's developed by doctors.

01:41:35.180 By the way, as I'm talking about sleep, you don't want to live in my head.
01:41:39.840 There are so many things going through my head.
01:41:41.340 You know what's going through my head right now?
01:41:44.100 Snow White going to sleep.
01:41:46.080 I don't know why.
01:41:47.240 I just thought of Snow White going to sleep.
01:41:48.980 And then I started having this, oh, I hope that thing from Disney just is destroyed.
01:41:54.060 I hope they sell like a dollar's worth of tickets.
01:41:58.160 So just know, I struggle to be able to bring you this information.
01:42:02.740 It's Z Factor from Relief Factor.

01:42:21.900 800-4-RELIEF.
01:42:24.460 10 seconds.
01:42:24.900 By the way, Glenn, it is a billion.
01:42:37.040 $100 to $150 billion saved, yes.
01:42:39.600 Okay, thank you.
01:42:40.680 I thought it was a billion.
01:42:42.100 And I said million, and I'm like, no, it could be a million, but that's not impressive.
01:42:45.480 Anyway, I was busy thinking about Snow White.
01:42:47.780 God, I saw the poster for that walking into the movie theater.
01:42:52.480 I want that thing to bomb unlike anything else.
01:42:55.700 It's just so, she's been so in everybody's face about how much she hates this country.
01:43:02.200 She just despises conservatives or anything religious.
01:43:06.660 I don't know.
01:43:07.140 I can't remember all of her comments.
01:43:08.340 Yeah, all of it.
01:43:08.960 But they haven't been good.
01:43:09.960 No, no.
01:43:11.000 And the, you know, when you go back into production like three times for a movie, it usually doesn't
01:43:18.800 turn out well.
01:43:20.240 Usually doesn't turn out well.
01:43:21.420 No, no, that's true.
01:43:22.480 Like, you know, I heard there was like, oh, people were like, oh, gosh, Wicked is this woke
01:43:26.600 thing.
01:43:27.800 No, this one is.
01:43:28.880 Yeah, this one really is, I think.
01:43:31.120 The woke, I mean, Wicked doesn't seem to be particularly woke.
01:43:34.100 It just seemed like it was a Broadway situation.
01:43:36.420 But it did very, very well, and people really liked it, apparently.
01:43:38.540 This one doesn't seem like people like it.
01:43:42.160 The only woke thing in Wicked that I have found is in one of their songs where they say, you're
01:43:49.000 a, you know, it's a great communicator.
01:43:51.080 Yeah, popular, you know, or a great communicator.
01:43:54.580 Does that make you smart?
01:43:56.420 No.
01:43:57.600 Something like that.
01:43:58.320 It just means you're popular.
01:43:59.340 Yeah, it just means you're popular.
01:44:00.480 Yeah, yeah.
01:44:01.300 And that's about Reagan.
01:44:03.400 Yeah.
01:44:03.540 It drives me nuts.
01:44:04.240 I get, because that's when it came out.
01:44:05.660 I don't think people took that, though, from it these days.
01:44:08.080 No, they don't.
01:44:08.860 It was just a time capsule when it was written, you know.
01:44:12.840 And that's, of course, none of this adds up to the Emilia Perez movie that's out.
01:44:18.240 But this is that.
01:44:19.280 Did you hear, I read this story.
01:44:21.520 We haven't had a chance to even talk about it, and I haven't really read the story deeply.
01:44:25.540 But did you hear that people in Mexico were suing to get their money back?
01:44:32.720 Yeah, because it kind of has some anti-Mexico stuff in it, right?
01:44:36.200 Like, it kind of mocks them.
01:44:37.360 I am annoyed.
01:44:37.960 I believe it, like, says, oh, I could tell he was Mexican because he smelled like avocados
01:44:42.920 or something like that.
01:44:43.680 Like, there's lines like that in it.
01:44:45.440 I mean, it's supposed to be this sort of, like, you know, sassy take on whatever the
01:44:50.300 hell they're trying, whatever story they're trying to tell you.
01:44:52.800 We played a clip of it when it came to the gender stuff, which was horrible.
01:44:55.920 I mean, like, ideology in movies is bothersome.
01:45:00.660 The problem there was more that it was just the worst movie I've ever seen in my life.
01:45:04.260 Oh, yeah.
01:45:04.640 I don't.
01:45:05.180 Horrible.
01:45:05.660 It was so.
01:45:06.700 Horrible, horrible, horrible.
01:45:07.980 Poorly done.
01:45:09.040 And the fact that she's getting nominated for awards and stuff.
01:45:13.300 Of course.
01:45:13.320 You mean he?
01:45:14.520 Oh, yeah.
01:45:15.100 This is the trans one.
01:45:16.760 That's right.
01:45:18.000 That's just obviously advocacy.
01:45:19.380 We have Craig T. Nelson joining us here in just a second.
01:45:23.140 And I want to play.
01:45:23.880 He's in a new movie called Green and Gold.
01:45:26.180 And I don't want to waste a minute with him playing the trailer.
01:45:29.560 So here's the trailer for the movie he's in.
01:45:32.160 Listen.
01:45:32.840 For my grandpa buck, farming wasn't a job.
01:45:35.900 Easy, easy.
01:45:36.780 It was a sacred act.
01:45:38.800 I couldn't do farming anymore.
01:45:40.500 I was on my way out for some bigger dreams.
01:45:43.060 This ain't your land.
01:45:44.140 Well, when you don't pay your loan, it becomes my land.
01:45:47.740 How much do we owe the bank?
01:45:48.980 I will make a little wager with you.
01:45:51.060 Pack all the way.
01:45:52.120 I will give you another year, interest-free.
01:45:54.640 And if they lose, you sign everything over to me.
01:45:58.380 Take it.
01:46:02.860 Your granddaughter's really talented.
01:46:04.320 Yeah, I know that.
01:46:06.100 You do her and I will cut you like a ten-pointer.
01:46:09.240 Great.
01:46:10.840 You go chasing your hopes and your dreams and you forget who you are.
01:46:14.620 And you lose everything that's wild and free.
01:46:17.200 You still believe in what we're doing?
01:46:22.800 More than anything.
01:46:27.660 It's called Green and Gold.
01:46:29.120 It is about a farmer that bets the farm on the outcome of a Green Bay Packers outcome.
01:46:39.700 And his granddaughter wants to get as far away from there as possible.
01:46:45.020 I mean, it's a story that at least I grew up in a small town.
01:46:48.560 It's kind of the same story.
01:46:49.900 I didn't want to be around my grandfather's farm.
01:46:51.820 But now I realize my grandfather's farm was probably the best place I could have ever been.
01:46:56.300 And I would kill to live on my grandfather's street the way it used to be with the farmers.
01:47:01.900 And we are losing farms like crazy.
01:47:05.520 And this has been a passion project for Craig T. Nelson.
01:47:09.720 It started out as an independent, very inexpensive film.
01:47:14.460 And he got on set the first day and says, we need more cameras and good cameras.
01:47:19.720 Take it out of my wages.
01:47:21.640 And so it is high passion for everybody involved in this because they believe we're losing our farmland.
01:47:29.260 Green and Gold.
01:47:30.860 We have Craig T. Nelson on with us next.
01:47:41.600 This is Glenn Beck.
01:47:45.160 You know, if you're going to do something, do it right.
01:47:47.940 Do it right the first time.
01:47:49.320 There's a company, you know, I work with so many companies that advertise on this program.
01:47:56.240 And I select them.
01:47:57.680 I can turn them down and I turn down more business than we take.
01:48:01.960 Cozy Earth is one of those companies.
01:48:04.880 I didn't know anything about Cozy Earth.
01:48:06.820 I didn't find out until I came home after my first meeting with Cozy Earth that my wife is like, yeah, I have their pajamas.
01:48:13.260 And I'm like, oh, those pajamas.
01:48:15.820 They're really, really soft.
01:48:17.580 But Cozy Earth, what they bring to the table is just luxury like nothing.
01:48:23.200 Their pajamas, their bath products, their bedding is just off the charts great.
01:48:29.740 Oprah even says it's true.
01:48:31.740 Her favorite thing seven times, Cozy Earth.
01:48:34.460 Oh, great.
01:48:35.540 This is luxury that is affordable.
01:48:37.560 It's luxury because the quality and the craftsmanship and the way this company operates, it's really a great company.
01:48:44.820 The kind of quality that you only find, you know, in really rich people's houses or top hotels.

01:49:21.780 Welcome to the program.
01:49:24.160 We're glad you're here.
01:49:25.280 We have him on.
01:49:27.340 Let me do a commercial real quick here so I can get it out of the way because I don't want to interrupt our conversation with Craig T. Nelson.
01:49:33.020 And we're waiting for him to hop on the phone.
01:49:37.420 We're having a problem with his end of the phone.
01:49:39.460 Let me talk to you about American financing.
01:49:42.760 You know, banks look at us as numbers, names on a sheet, nothing more.
01:49:46.500 Banks, credit card companies, the government, faceless entities that want nothing more than your money and don't really care about what you're getting.
01:49:54.820 Is it good for your family?
01:49:56.600 You think the IRS really cares?
01:49:58.880 I would make an exception when I talk about banks.
01:50:01.700 I would say American Financing, you know, which is a loan service company.
01:50:07.420 They work with the banks, but they don't work for the banks.
01:50:10.120 They work for you, and you are not a number to them.
01:50:13.020 If you're a homeowner and you want to get out from under debt of that high interest debt, all you have to do is call American Financing at 800-906-2440.
01:50:22.900 800-906-2440.
01:50:25.060 We're AmericanFinancing.net.

01:50:34.380 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.
01:50:37.940 I think the last time I talked to this guy, he talked to me while I was doing the CNN TV show.
01:50:46.280 I'm not sure.
01:50:47.420 He has become – I mean, he writes, he directs, he produces.
01:50:52.440 He's an actor.
01:50:53.260 He is somebody that has grown from just an actor that you might see on television to done some incredible things.
01:51:02.960 He's currently doing Paw Paw in Disney Junior's animated series Pupstruction.
01:51:08.400 He's reprising – or is it reprising – reprising his role as Dale Ballard from Young Sheldon in its upcoming spinoff, George and Mandy's First Marriage.
01:51:19.680 He was Zeke Braverman in NBC's Parenthood.
01:51:24.600 He was in movies like The Family Stone, Poltergeist – I forgot about that – The Voice of Mr. Incredible.
01:51:31.780 Hayden Fox in Coach.
01:51:33.840 And he is now starring as Buck, a struggling Wisconsin farmer in the independent film Green and Gold.
01:51:42.140 Welcome to Craig T. Nelson.
01:51:43.880 Hey, Craig T. How are you?
01:51:45.860 Hi, Glenn Beck.
01:51:46.680 How are you doing?
01:51:47.500 I'm good.
01:51:48.840 I think the last time you were on the show, I apologize for wrecking your career by having you appear on my show.
01:51:55.900 But you proved me wrong.
01:51:57.660 I wasn't a curse around your neck because you are great.
01:52:02.160 Just great.
01:52:02.780 Oh, no.
01:52:03.700 Thank you.
01:52:04.280 I had such a great time with you.
01:52:06.200 It was a lot of fun.
01:52:08.840 I thought it was maybe Fox, but I'm not sure.
01:52:13.000 See, I thought so too, but Stu said it was CNN.
01:52:17.020 I think it was Fox as well.
01:52:18.580 Maybe it was, yeah.
01:52:19.020 Yeah.
01:52:19.380 Because I remember you being very brave coming on the show.
01:52:22.180 I remember going, this guy is over.
01:52:24.740 He's never going to work a day again in his life.
01:52:27.480 You were doing all those uncover and discover things.
01:52:31.660 Yeah.
01:52:31.800 We were getting into the deep state now.
01:52:33.820 I know.
01:52:34.680 Isn't it crazy how things have turned out now?
01:52:38.100 Yeah.
01:52:38.700 Yeah.
01:52:38.900 I mean, it's like completely revealed, right?
01:52:43.400 Yeah, it is.
01:52:44.460 And anyway, I don't know.
01:52:47.320 But I had so much fun with you.
01:52:49.160 Thank you.
01:52:49.620 Thank you.
01:52:50.100 So I want to talk to you about the new film that's coming out, Green and Gold.
01:52:54.160 This is a passion topic for me.
01:52:57.560 I'm a rancher.
01:52:58.400 And when I say a rancher, I own cattle and somebody else does all the work.
01:53:03.380 So I'm not really a rancher, but I live in a small town, you know, half the year of about 400 people.
01:53:09.640 And they're all farmers.
01:53:11.020 And we're losing that way of life.
01:53:15.000 And it is being destroyed.
01:53:16.600 And that's what this film is about.
01:53:19.580 Yeah.
01:53:20.560 Yeah, it is.
01:53:21.320 It's, you know, my family has a farm in South Dakota and they've had, it's been about 150 years spending in the family.
01:53:30.320 And then my wife has a family farm in South Dakota also, which is really, she comes from that environment.
01:53:40.480 And it's, it's one of those things that I think it goes unnoticed because the people that are employed in the task of doing the work don't have time to get out and say, hey, look at us.
01:53:59.460 Yeah.
01:54:00.040 You know, we're having a problem.
01:54:01.680 And what happens is it just, they get turned under like the, like the field, you know, they get plowed under and forgotten.
01:54:12.700 And it's a shame.
01:54:14.160 So this is, this is a movie about bringing that awareness, but also it's a, it's a bigger story than that, Glenn.
01:54:20.560 It's, it's about the heart and soul of who these people might be and are, I think.
01:54:27.960 I tell you, I, you know, Thomas Jefferson, when they were, you know, designing the jury, who's going to be in a jury box.
01:54:35.060 And some of the founders said, we should just have scholars, et cetera, et cetera.
01:54:38.800 And he said, I trust people that have their hands in the dirt every day.
01:54:43.000 I want the average person.
01:54:44.720 And there is something about that.
01:54:46.900 I think when we moved off of farms into cities, we lost a lot, a lot.
01:54:53.800 And we're about to lose all of it, I'm afraid.
01:54:55.980 Well, we lose where we come from.
01:55:00.260 Yeah.
01:55:01.080 And I think, yeah, go ahead.
01:55:03.960 I was going to say, it's also, though, an understanding.
01:55:05.980 I mean, when you, when you grow up on a farm, you live on a farm, you, you, you know where your food comes from.
01:55:11.340 You know, the circle of life.
01:55:13.380 You just, you just have a different, you know, you have to depend on God and your neighbor.
01:55:20.680 I mean, it's just lessons that you don't get necessarily, you know, living in the suburbs or the city.
01:55:27.740 Yeah, exactly.
01:55:29.200 And the values that they hold dear and that they, that they believe in are, you know, they're traditional.
01:55:39.480 And they mean something.
01:55:42.140 They may be conservative, but for them and their lifestyle, it's reflected in how they deal with each other.
01:55:51.920 And I think, I think all we can do, I think it's, it's great that we can somehow bring an issue to the floor that says something about these people and who they are.
01:56:08.600 Um, is it true?
01:56:11.440 I read that, uh, by the end of the film, everybody, it was a passion project for everybody.
01:56:17.820 Um, and on day one, you walked in and said, Hey, uh, you know, I, I, I, I know we're not putting a lot of money into this, but I think it should have, you know, different cameras or, you know, additional cameras, et cetera, et cetera.
01:56:33.420 And you just took it out of your, your salary because you believed in this so much.
01:56:38.900 Oh yeah.
01:56:39.960 Yeah.
01:56:40.380 Well, they didn't have the money to do what they wanted to do.
01:56:44.200 The cinema, as you know, um, the, the, the scope of the movie is the land and the land is what endears ourselves to who these people are and beauty of it.
01:56:56.160 And that kind of scope, you need, you need processing and you need the ability to go out and shoot it.
01:57:03.720 Right.
01:57:04.700 So they needed another camera.
01:57:07.360 So I said, yeah, I'm like, Hey, let's do that.
01:57:09.600 You know?
01:57:10.800 And, uh, boy, they did, they got a, they really got a, it's a beautiful film.
01:57:15.860 So, so, you know, we've, we've talked a little bit about message, but yeah, if you haven't seen the movie,
01:57:25.600 you know, I have, but most people can't see it yet.
01:57:29.800 Um, explain the plot, sell it to somebody who's like, okay, well, I like farmers, et cetera, but sell the movie.
01:57:37.720 A fourth generation guy, kind of a crusty guy.
01:57:41.720 I've been, you know, he's got a farm that he's trying to farm organically and he doesn't use machinery.
01:57:49.040 He's got some draft horses, but he has the best clover in the area and, uh, he's got the best cream and the best butter.
01:58:01.560 And he's proud of it.
01:58:02.960 And he's trying to make a go of it.
01:58:05.000 But the milk prices are rising and falling.
01:58:08.300 And sure enough, he's going to lose his place.
01:58:11.060 And he's trying to hold it together.
01:58:13.140 He's just trying to hold it together for his, got a granddaughter who's working on the farm.
01:58:19.100 And, uh, he's, uh, he's already lost a daughter, um, to a dream that she had and he doesn't want to lose a granddaughter.
01:58:28.500 So he's got pretty tight cramps on it.
01:58:31.020 Um, and so it's a story of, it's a story of trying to keep something you love and making a mistake probably in how you're raising your granddaughter and then, uh, seeing the repercussions of that.
01:58:47.740 And also bringing a guy to faith that, uh, is, I think one of those people that's, uh, hard to reach.
01:58:57.560 Um, so I, I really identified with it in that regard.
01:59:02.560 It kind of covers a wide range.
01:59:05.160 I, I, I related to, uh, I mean, I've had this conversation over and over again.
01:59:11.260 Um, my kids want to live in a city and I wanted to live in a city when I was a kid, but, uh, you know, we bought this ranch and I hope my kids will take it for generations because it, it is just a superior lifestyle.
01:59:27.540 I think you just, it's just more rooted in reality.
01:59:30.540 Um, but you know, sitting there looking at your kids and going, are they going to take this?
01:59:36.000 Especially if it's been in your family for, you know, generations.
01:59:40.960 It's kind of the Yellowstone story really without all the killing and stuff.
01:59:46.040 Yeah.
01:59:46.540 Without all the killing and yeah.
01:59:48.940 Right.
01:59:50.140 Yeah.
01:59:50.920 Right.
01:59:51.920 With all the drug running.
01:59:53.100 Yeah.
01:59:53.520 Right.
01:59:54.280 Yeah.
01:59:54.720 No, this is, yeah, it's about heart, you know, and it's also about trying to find it and that's what it's so, I love about the movie.
02:00:05.380 Well, I want to thank you for coming on the program and, uh, uh, enjoy talking to you again.
02:00:10.720 Uh, and, and thank you for your bravery.
02:00:13.420 I mean, you were brave when really no one was brave.
02:00:17.220 Do you think things are changing or is it just going out of Hollywood?
02:00:22.580 No, I don't think things are changing, Glenn.
02:00:26.640 I think what we're reading is, uh, is in the Bible and, um, and what we're seeing is definitely, uh, coming about.
02:00:41.020 It's, uh, it's, it's quite frightening for me.
02:00:44.840 Uh, uh, but it's a wake-up call, isn't it?
02:00:48.580 Yeah, it is.
02:00:49.400 I, I tell you, I, I am still there that we are living in, uh, those days.
02:00:55.860 Uh, uh, some of the, I feel like the Lord gave us a little bit of a pressure relief, but, uh, but now it's up to us.
02:01:05.260 I mean, he's only going to do what we can't do and we couldn't have averted that bullet, but he did.
02:01:09.920 Uh, and, uh, and now we're expected to do all the hard work and, you know, it's, uh, it's an amazing time to be alive.
02:01:20.700 It is, and we have to do the most with it and do what we can to, um, to get the message to people, you know, um, that we have to do something.
02:01:32.380 Craig T., thank you very much.
02:01:35.080 God bless you.
02:01:35.860 Thank you.
02:01:36.540 Good to talk to you.
02:01:37.640 You bet.
02:01:38.040 Good to talk to you.
02:01:38.920 Uh, Craig T. Nelson.
02:01:40.360 The name of the, uh, movie is Green and Gold.
02:01:44.100 It is coming to theaters nationwide on January 31st.
02:01:49.080 Uh, and I highly recommend it.
02:01:51.720 It's really good.
02:01:52.300 Several people on the staff and I have watched it and, uh, highly recommend it.
02:01:56.560 Really, really well done.
02:01:58.780 Uh, and a great story that you will relate to.
02:02:01.380 Green and Gold.
02:02:05.260 Can't believe he used to be a top 40 disc jockey.
02:02:08.900 But anyway, we still love him.
02:02:12.900 Glenn Beck will be right back.
02:02:31.380 I had to look it up, uh, when Craig T. Nelson was on with us, uh, last, it was 13 years ago.
02:02:41.340 It was on, uh, Fox and the headline the next day was Craig T. Nelson out crazies Glenn Beck on Fox.
02:02:51.680 Talk about fake news.
02:02:52.840 That's impossible.
02:02:55.360 They didn't know that at that time.
02:02:56.800 Okay.
02:02:56.980 Oh, okay.
02:02:57.260 But remember he was on, he was like, I don't, I don't know if I'm going to pay my income tax.
02:03:01.740 And I kept trying to throw him lifelines.
02:03:03.560 Like, no, you really, I mean.
02:03:05.900 Publicly should say you're going to pay your income tax.
02:03:08.440 He was like, nah.
02:03:09.240 Yeah.
02:03:09.520 And he was like, I, you know, they're spending all this money that I don't agree with.
02:03:12.840 And I have moral problems with it.
02:03:15.320 Why should I pay my income tax?
02:03:17.400 And that of course is crazy.
02:03:19.160 Uh, but look where we are now, you know?
02:03:22.420 Uh, and, and I have to tell you, I, uh, I think there's probably a lot of people that are really upset.
02:03:28.720 By the way, before I finish talking about it, you know how old he is now?
02:03:32.460 He was 67 when he was on the program last time.
02:03:36.340 Oh, wow.
02:03:36.720 He's 80.
02:03:38.000 Hmm.
02:03:38.900 Can you believe that?
02:03:41.140 Um, all right.
02:03:42.140 So, uh, um, RFK Jr. is finishing his, uh, confirmation hearings.
02:03:49.520 They're going to vote on him.
02:03:51.020 I think he's going to get through.
02:03:52.700 Yeah.
02:03:52.900 You interested in the percentages, chances on these guys.
02:03:55.140 Yeah.
02:03:55.280 So right now, uh, the markets are saying, uh, 89% chance for Cash Patel to get approved.
02:04:00.620 Oh, that's good.
02:04:01.320 Yep.
02:04:02.060 74% for RFK, which is pretty flat since the beginning of this hearing.
02:04:05.540 Uh, and then Tulsi Gabbard, 51% chance.
02:04:08.740 I think she's going to have a hard time.
02:04:10.100 Everybody else is in the high 90s or above.
02:04:12.100 So I think she's, I think she's the one that you might lose and she's the one I really don't
02:04:17.060 want to lose.
02:04:18.620 Um, because she's going in with a charge of open them all up.
02:04:23.200 Tell me exactly who the good guys and bad guys are.
02:04:26.260 Tell me what they've been doing with black ops.
02:04:28.360 And she will.
02:04:29.240 I mean, she's a Lieutenant Colonel, uh, and, uh, and very, very American.
02:04:34.340 I would not be surprised if she does not get through.
02:04:36.040 I was looking at the, just the committee members.
02:04:38.260 Oh, a lot of those people are not going to be, they're not.
02:04:41.040 You've got Cornyn, Collins.
02:04:43.840 Yeah.
02:04:44.620 Uh, Tom Cotton.
02:04:46.480 I don't think he's a huge fan.
02:04:47.780 Like Langford.
02:04:49.720 Yeah.
02:04:50.240 I mean, if you, you go down to that, you get onto that committee because you are maybe
02:04:54.360 a little leaning more toward hawkishness, right?
02:04:57.300 Yes.
02:04:57.500 Probably.
02:04:58.060 And it just, it's going to be tough, I think, to get her through.
02:05:00.280 It's possible.
02:05:01.420 I wouldn't be shocked.
02:05:02.080 I think you'd need democratic help.
02:05:04.040 And if I were a Democrat, I would be probably thrilled with her nomination.
02:05:07.360 Not because I think she's, uh, you know, some, uh, necessarily aligned, uh, uh, you know,
02:05:13.640 with everything that I believe in, but probably better than you're going to be able to do.
02:05:17.700 Nope.
02:05:18.660 You would want to thwart that every way you could.
02:05:21.560 Oh, yeah.
02:05:21.940 I mean, she ran for president as a Democrat.
02:05:24.980 How could, I mean, in your wildest dreams, you wouldn't believe Donald Trump would nominate
02:05:29.140 a person like that to a major port.
02:05:31.500 But I mean, he's done it twice.
02:05:32.360 But she sold us out.
02:05:33.600 She sold us out.
02:05:34.400 Yeah, that's true.
02:05:35.120 They don't like that.
02:05:35.280 And she is going to expose everything.
02:05:37.500 I'm telling you, she has the most dangerous job.
02:05:40.720 Cash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, possibly RFK.
02:05:46.300 Of course, Donald Trump.
02:05:47.680 I mean, you're seeing people that are going in and they are going to look in past the gates
02:05:54.560 of hell and say, you come this way.
02:05:58.640 I mean, they're going to expose things and it's extraordinarily dangerous because they're
02:06:05.200 all powerful people that they're going to expose.
02:06:07.960 She is on the front line because that's all cloak and dagger.
02:06:12.660 That's all in the shadows.
02:06:14.800 All right.
02:06:15.780 More tomorrow.
02:06:20.060 This is Glenn Beck.
