00:00:05.400 Enjoy the warm Tampa Bay temperatures and warm Porter hospitality on your way there.
00:00:11.360 All Porter fares include beer, wine, and snacks, and free, fast-streaming Wi-Fi on planes with no middle seats.
00:00:18.780 And your Tampa Bay vacation includes good times, relaxation, and great Gulf Coast weather.
00:00:25.160 Visit flyporter.com and actually enjoy economy.
00:00:30.000 Let me tell you about the Berna Launcher.
00:00:31.460 They are the sponsor of Blaze TV and this broadcast, and help keep us in your home and accessible everywhere.
00:00:41.140 Even if you've had an ounce of gun training, you know the old rule, when you shoot, you shoot to kill.
00:00:47.620 Do not pull your gun unless you plan on, if you're target practicing, fine.
00:00:53.060 Other than that, you pull the gun to kill somebody.
00:00:56.600 Well, I don't know.
00:00:58.360 Is there anything in between?
00:01:00.820 With everything that is going on, I like the Berna Launcher.
00:01:05.140 The Berna Launcher, I have it.
00:01:07.080 I have it with my firearms.
00:01:08.960 My wife has it.
00:01:10.120 My kids have it.
00:01:11.280 Now they're over 18.
00:01:12.300 But it is a great compliment to my firearms.
00:01:16.040 Situations where you would just like some tear gas, or you want to be able to hit a kinetic round at them.
00:01:23.040 It looks just like a gun.
00:01:25.320 And you pull that trigger 60 feet away.
00:01:29.520 You hit within six feet.
00:01:31.800 Tear gas hits them.
00:01:33.120 And I'm telling you, that incapacitates people for about 40 minutes.
00:01:38.880 Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.
00:01:41.860 I'm proud to have them on as a sponsor.

00:02:53.040 And hey, you sick, twisted freak.
00:02:55.500 Welcome to the program.
00:02:56.780 There is a lot of good eating on the plate today.
00:03:01.000 A presidential historian has now revealed that Jill Biden is the reason that Joe Biden is running.
00:03:09.760 So now they're taking on Dr. Jill.
00:03:14.100 Hmm.
00:03:15.000 Also, Nate Silver said, yeah, he's not going to win.
00:03:18.980 If he's the guy, he's just not going to win.
00:03:23.400 Media freaking out just a little bit.
00:03:26.400 And they should be.
00:03:28.220 By the way, New York should be freaking out.
00:03:31.140 There's more on the news of the fallout of that Trump verdict and penalty.
00:03:39.280 It's going to be over $400 million once it's all said and done, unless he can get that reversed.
00:03:45.560 But it's going to cost the state of New York much, much more than that.
00:03:49.800 Oh, also, Joe Biden was ranked by historians, presidential historians, and Joe Biden is 15th out of all 48, or no, 46.
00:04:05.060 He's 14th, Glenn.
00:04:06.540 Oh, I'm sorry, 14th.
00:04:07.280 You should know this, because 15th is Woodrow Wilson.
00:04:10.500 Oh, Woodrow Wilson?
00:04:11.260 Yes.
00:04:11.600 Where's Ronald Reagan?
00:04:12.480 Ronald Reagan is 16th.
00:04:14.280 16th?
00:04:15.360 16th.
00:04:15.900 Come on.
00:04:16.660 Yeah.
00:04:17.320 This is ridiculous.
00:04:19.940 We'll talk about that and so much more in 60 seconds.
00:04:22.120 First, Linda wrote me.
00:04:23.740 She said, Lucy, her dog, just had her 11th birthday in September.
00:04:29.440 Since trying Rough Green, she now waits impatiently for her meals.
00:04:33.120 She initiates playing with her Frisbee, something she hasn't done in years.
00:04:37.060 And she's my walking partner again.
00:04:39.160 It's like the clock has turned back for her.
00:04:41.420 Thank you so much for Rough Greens.
00:04:43.920 Linda, thank you for listening and writing in.
00:04:46.260 Thank you for having your dog just try out Rough Greens.
00:04:48.680 I'm glad to see she's doing exactly like Uno did when he first started taking Rough Greens.
00:04:53.380 I think it bought him, I don't know, I think it bought him the best years of his life, but it might have extended his life as well.
00:05:01.140 He is getting so old now.
00:05:03.220 He's already the oldest German Shepherd we've ever had.
00:05:06.280 And I think it's all because of Rough Greens.
00:05:09.140 It's not a dog food.
00:05:10.260 It's a supplement developed by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black that you sprinkle on the food.
00:05:14.980 Remember, brown food is dead food.
00:05:16.460 You want the green stuff.
00:05:17.820 And the folks at Rough Greens want you to have a first trial bag absolutely free.
00:05:21.660 So you can see if your dog likes it as much as Uno does and as much as Lucy does.
00:05:27.500 Rough Greens.
00:05:28.040 R-U-F-F-Greens.com slash Beck.
00:05:30.640 Rough Greens.com slash Beck.
00:05:32.300 Get your first trial bag free.
00:05:33.900 You just pay for shipping.
00:05:35.180 833-G-L-E-N-N 33.
00:05:37.820 833-GLEN 33.
00:05:39.800 It's roughgreens.com slash Beck.
00:05:44.980 Presidential historian said one of the main driving forces behind President Joe Biden's decision to run for re-election was his lovely wife, Dr. Jill.
00:05:55.700 Uh, he noted that both, uh, former presidents, Harry Truman and Lyndon B. Johnson decided to leave office because their wives were like, I've had enough of all of this.
00:06:06.180 If you look at Lyndon Johnson, it wasn't because of Vietnam.
00:06:09.460 It wasn't because of anything else.
00:06:11.100 He wasn't really healthy, high blood pressure and everything else.
00:06:13.840 And Lady Bird was like, you're going back to Texas.
00:06:16.760 And that's why he didn't run for a second term.
00:06:20.500 Uh, the same.
00:06:21.420 It wasn't because he completely destroyed our future economic prospects by Elvis program.
00:06:25.380 No, no, no.
00:06:25.760 It wasn't because of the constant N-words?
00:06:27.580 No.
00:06:27.880 That wasn't it?
00:06:28.260 No.
00:06:28.420 Okay, I just want to make sure I understand with Lyndon Johnson why he didn't run.
00:06:31.720 Yeah, no, it wasn't.
00:06:32.740 It wasn't that.
00:06:33.400 Uh, and with, uh, with Truman, he could have run, uh, but, uh, his wife, Bess, was like, I, we gotta get out of here.
00:06:43.460 And what's amazing is the two of them got into their old car and drove back to independence.
00:06:51.060 Drove back themselves.
00:06:52.600 He did.
00:06:53.260 What a difference.
00:06:54.620 Uh, there was.
00:06:56.120 And he had never been on the highway system before.
00:06:59.280 They, the highways were just starting and he was like, I gotta try out some of these highways.
00:07:04.480 And so he did look at the way our presidents live in luxury now for the rest of their lives.
00:07:10.200 Um, so the, the guy, the presidential historian said, um, that she doesn't want to go because she has just started to teach in Virginia Community College and that's her home.
00:07:28.680 Um, and she likes it.
00:07:30.180 And she said, she's been taking all of the slings and arrows of the last year's attacks.
00:07:37.380 Uh, and she's been taking it on the chin and she's put up with so much.
00:07:42.580 She's, this historian actually said that, uh, at the last minute, just when you get all the delegates, you're going to say, I'm going to open it up to a bunch of people.
00:07:54.940 Well, no, she wants, get this.
00:07:59.380 She wants to stay.
00:08:00.600 She wants some sense of revenge.
00:08:02.940 Revenge.
00:08:05.500 Revenge on who?
00:08:09.020 And isn't revenge, aren't we, isn't everybody saying to Donald Trump, he'll just be about revenge.
00:08:15.100 What the hell is going on here?
00:08:18.160 And this, I mean, to me, this shows elder abuse.
00:08:21.380 It shows they don't care.
00:08:24.140 None of them care about the husband, the father, the grandfather.
00:08:28.540 None of them care.
00:08:29.880 It's just about them.
00:08:31.360 Um, it's crazy.
00:08:33.840 It's absolutely crazy.
00:08:35.400 And he's going to lose, which just makes me think Michelle Obama.
00:08:42.580 No, you're not taking my thousand dollars.
00:08:45.520 Oh my gosh.
00:08:46.140 That, uh, it, yeah.
00:08:48.080 I mean, you mentioned Nate Silver's analysis of this, which is, is pretty thorough.
00:08:51.700 And he, again, is not like some Trump supporter.
00:08:54.480 He's a guy who wants the Democrats to run a good candidate.
00:08:57.740 He said, if you asked me a year ago, I would have told you Joe Biden was a reasonably,
00:09:01.360 clear favorite in the event of a rematch against Donald Trump.
00:09:05.160 But Biden's situation has become considerably worse.
00:09:08.220 If he were 10 years younger, he still might be a 65, 35 favorite.
00:09:13.580 But in this campaign, he is substantially encumbered by his age.
00:09:18.520 Personally, I crossed the Rubicon in November, concluding that Biden should stand down if he
00:09:22.340 wasn't able to run a normal re-election campaign, meaning like little things like the Super Bowl
00:09:28.380 interview.
00:09:29.300 It's remarkable he didn't do that.
00:09:30.960 I know.
00:09:31.380 Remarkable.
00:09:31.820 Like, it's just an incredible opportunity.
00:09:35.020 It would be easy.
00:09:36.700 It's not like he would probably be able to pick the person who interviewed him.
00:09:41.980 Right?
00:09:42.160 Like, it would be as easy as it can be.
00:09:46.460 And he refused to do it in front of the largest audience in the world.
00:09:49.300 It's like the, you know, the Macy's Day Parade interview they always do with the president.
00:09:54.320 What are you going to have to eat today?
00:09:56.940 You know, it's that kind of stuff.
00:09:58.160 I mean, you'd expect it to be slightly tougher than that.
00:10:01.180 But not much.
00:10:01.940 Not for him.
00:10:02.140 Not for the media.
00:10:02.840 Especially when they want him desperately to win.
00:10:06.680 Right?
00:10:06.800 Like, if you're cheering on a particular candidate, you're likely to get a favorable interview.
00:10:13.840 And they still wouldn't go with it.
00:10:16.680 Nate Silver, at the end of this analysis, which is worth reading, but at the end, he just
00:10:20.600 asks for the challenge.
00:10:21.840 Did you read the challenge part of this article at the end?
00:10:24.060 No.
00:10:24.560 He says, a simple challenge to the White House.
00:10:26.860 Could I or other critics and 75% of Americans be wrong about this age issue?
00:10:30.940 Sure.
00:10:31.500 I'm wrong about a lot of things.
00:10:33.000 But if we're wrong about this, it ought to be easy to prove it.
00:10:35.580 Here's what I propose.
00:10:36.840 Over the course of the next several weeks, Biden should do four lengthy sit-down interviews
00:10:41.840 with non-friendly sources.
00:10:44.080 Non-friendly doesn't mean hostile.
00:10:46.060 Non-partisan reporters with a track record of asking tough questions would work great.
00:10:50.220 A complete recording of the interview should be made public.
00:10:52.460 The interviews ought to include a mix of different media.
00:10:56.220 For instance, Biden could pick these four.
00:10:58.460 One.
00:10:59.120 A lengthy sit-down interview with the Washington Bureaus of the New York Times or Washington
00:11:02.560 Post.
00:11:03.600 Like, every, even like Donald Trump was doing those interviews with Maggie Haberman, right?
00:11:08.120 Yes.
00:11:08.700 Two.
00:11:09.340 An interview with 60 minutes, making up for the interview Biden ought to have given to
00:11:13.780 CBS during the Super Bowl.
00:11:15.200 Okay.
00:11:15.940 Three.
00:11:16.400 An interview with some sort of center-right print or digital outlet.
00:11:19.560 This could be, say, the Wall Street Journal op-ed page or even a team of writers at the
00:11:23.320 dispatch.
00:11:24.560 Four.
00:11:25.020 Wildcard.
00:11:25.580 Take your pick.
00:11:26.300 Bonus points for Fox News, though I doubt Biden would do it.
00:11:28.940 Go on Ezra Klein's podcast.
00:11:30.400 Go on Rogan.
00:11:32.020 You know, etc.
00:11:33.980 Those are four super basic things that a person running for president of the United States
00:11:41.040 should be able to do without thinking about it, right?
00:11:44.120 Yes.
00:11:44.440 These are not big asks by Nate Silver.
00:11:47.160 These are things that just show this man has the competence level to handle basic questioning.
00:11:53.480 With the exception of Rogan.
00:11:55.480 Right.
00:11:55.780 Which would be a little bit out.
00:11:56.500 Okay.
00:11:56.720 Would be out there.
00:11:57.580 But that was Arsenio Hall.
00:12:00.680 Right.
00:12:00.800 I mean, that's what Clinton broke the barrier.
00:12:03.520 He said, I'm not just going to sit with the big news people.
00:12:06.600 I'm going to sit with people that people actually listen to, watch, or admire.
00:12:11.120 Right.
00:12:11.400 Okay.
00:12:12.340 So Clinton did that.
00:12:13.900 And I think pretty much every president has done that.
00:12:17.220 I mean, Donald Trump went on to The Tonight Show and had him mess up his hair.
00:12:21.220 Right.
00:12:21.640 And that was more of a, you know, a fun, like, and Rogan goes back and forth, right?
00:12:25.480 He has some serious stuff.
00:12:26.720 He has some funny stuff.
00:12:27.400 Or if you want to just go to someone independent, like a Barry Weiss or, you know, Michael Schellenberger
00:12:31.620 or somebody who would just be independent.
00:12:35.120 Right.
00:12:35.360 Like, ask some questions that maybe were out of the mainstream that he wasn't getting from
00:12:38.480 everybody else.
00:12:39.080 Like, I think that those are basic things anyone running for president should be able
00:12:43.740 to do those things without question.
00:12:44.840 I would do an interview, a straight interview with him, and I would only ask questions about
00:12:50.700 his success or failure.
00:12:52.880 I wouldn't, I wouldn't slant it.
00:12:54.840 I wouldn't play gotcha.
00:12:56.120 Nothing.
00:12:57.360 Tell me about binomics and why it's working.
00:12:59.980 And I would go down into the weeds.
00:13:02.400 Yeah.
00:13:03.100 And show why it's not working.
00:13:04.860 It's not working.
00:13:06.500 But let him answer for it.
00:13:07.420 And he can't, he wouldn't be able to go.
00:13:10.180 There's no way he could do 45 minutes with me.
00:13:13.160 There's no way.
00:13:13.680 Oh, God.
00:13:14.040 And me saying, with both my arms tied behind my back, not trying to do gotcha or anything,
00:13:20.300 he could not handle a 45 minute interview with me, a recovering alcoholic DJ.
00:13:28.520 Come on.
00:13:29.380 You're right.
00:13:29.940 Come on.
00:13:30.260 He wouldn't even consider it.
00:13:33.040 No.
00:13:33.680 Remember, Barack Obama did one of those Super Bowl interviews with Bill O'Reilly.
00:13:38.540 Yeah, I know.
00:13:38.940 Like, this is not a foreign concept.
00:13:42.840 Everybody who runs for president is expected to be able to answer some tough questions.
00:13:47.900 This guy has done almost none of them.
00:13:49.800 Did you see, and I think it's in this article, where they talk about, here we go.
00:13:55.180 Biden has done fewer interviews than any recent president.
00:13:57.700 It's not close.
00:13:58.780 By this point in their presidencies, Barack Obama had given more than 400 interviews.
00:14:03.420 And Trump had given more than 300.
00:14:05.600 Biden has given fewer than 100.
00:14:07.640 And a bunch of them are softball interviews on Conan O'Brien's podcast or Jay Shetty's mindfulness podcast.
00:14:18.540 He's not even doing this job.
00:14:23.740 Is anyone noticing this?
00:14:25.480 The man is not even doing the job.
00:14:28.300 I love it.
00:14:28.800 I love it when Stu expresses what I express about two hours earlier when I'm reading the news.
00:14:35.640 And that is, I can't.
00:14:41.080 We all do that now.
00:14:42.820 It's like, I put, I can't.
00:14:45.900 It's incredible.
00:14:47.020 Like, I just can't believe we're in this situation where we have someone who, again, the number in this poll was 75%.
00:14:55.120 We've seen it as high as 86% are saying that he's too old to do this job.
00:14:59.900 Yeah, I know.
00:15:00.300 We all look at this and understand what's happening.
00:15:03.400 And we're like, let, it's like, hey, we're driving 85.
00:15:07.540 Is that a big stone wall in the middle of the highway?
00:15:11.240 Should we accelerate?
00:15:13.420 What should we do?
00:15:14.180 Should we get off this exit?
00:15:15.260 There's a McDonald's right here at the highway pass.
00:15:19.340 We could just go through, get a couple burgers.
00:15:21.360 Or we could just gun it at the stone wall that is just somehow in the middle of the highway.
00:15:26.860 You know what?
00:15:27.140 I think maybe we could get him to accept this.
00:15:30.540 Coffee and cars with comedians and the current president.
00:15:34.880 But he has to drive to the coffee shop.
00:15:38.040 No, you're going to kill somebody.
00:15:40.920 You can't put that man on the road.
00:15:42.460 Yeah, I mean, so we have a virtual Jerry in the car.
00:15:45.580 Right, okay.
00:15:46.300 We don't want to kill Jerry Seinfeld.
00:15:47.840 No.
00:15:48.120 But no one would give this man the keys to their car.
00:15:51.900 If he came over to your house and he said, you know what?
00:15:55.140 I'm driving home.
00:15:56.200 I'm just going to drive home.
00:15:57.760 In his car.
00:15:59.020 Right.
00:15:59.180 We would all say, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:16:02.640 We'd act like he was drunk.
00:16:04.060 We would act the same way.
00:16:05.660 So if he came over and had five or six cocktails in an hour,
00:16:08.360 we would act like we act with our grandparents.
00:16:12.580 Okay?
00:16:13.220 That's what we would do.
00:16:14.260 We would act the same way we act with our grandparents when they hit that point.
00:16:20.420 No, grandpa, you can't drive.
00:16:22.520 And everybody in America, on all sides, this is not political, on all sides, we know that.
00:16:30.940 We know it.
00:16:33.020 But we're giving him not the keys to our car.
00:16:36.200 We're giving him the keys to the nuclear briefcase.
00:16:39.840 Oh, my God.
00:16:40.860 Okay?
00:16:41.420 And asking him to micromanage a war between Russia and Ukraine.
00:16:47.320 Like, that couldn't spiral out of control and get us involved in it anyway.
00:16:50.240 No, I mean, the only thing that could be worse is, like, you know, something between, I don't know, Iran and Israel.
00:16:57.460 Or China and us.
00:16:59.780 I mean, look at what's happening.
00:17:01.620 Seriously.
00:17:02.280 The guy, we would never let him drive a car.
00:17:05.260 Never.
00:17:06.380 Never.
00:17:06.660 The only thing that saves fellow drivers is that his Corvette is so packed with boxes of documents,
00:17:11.220 he can't get into it to drive it.
00:17:12.820 Here's what I would, here's what, here's all my interview would be.
00:17:15.820 I've reviled, I'm not going to ask him about any, I'm just going to sit.
00:17:18.340 No more Vitanomics now?
00:17:19.340 Nope.
00:17:19.640 I'm going to sit him in a driver-simulated, you know, car.
00:17:23.480 You know those cars that look just like you're in it and you can feel it moving.
00:17:26.700 You can feel it moving.
00:17:27.540 I'm going to have him do a couple of laps in that.
00:17:32.700 And let's see how competent he is.
00:17:35.600 Okay?
00:17:35.820 If he can't drive a computer-simulated car, and I would use a real car, but as Stu said,
00:17:43.760 he'd probably kill people.
00:17:46.180 Mm-hmm.
00:17:48.740 And the entire news media would unite to say,
00:17:51.120 well, George Washington couldn't drive a car either!

00:18:06.620 Yes.
00:18:07.320 And, you know, I would just want to take a moment here and thank the federal government
00:18:10.700 for forcing us to run that disclaimer, because we all know what it means.
00:18:14.620 We all know what it means.
00:18:15.800 And we're all calling that number and writing down the MLS thing.
00:18:20.640 We thank you for keeping us safe.
00:18:23.940 Gosh, I love this government.
00:18:25.400 They're so great.
00:18:26.700 Always looking out for us, as is American Financing.
00:18:29.720 Let me tell you how American Financing is helping people.
00:18:33.400 They have been helping people just like you save money for 25 years.
00:18:36.840 They save customers an average of $854 a month last year by tapping into their home's equity
00:18:43.920 to pay off the high-interest debt.
00:18:46.560 This is from this audience, $854 from the people in this audience that called them.
00:18:53.020 And a lot of people that are calling American Financing now feel like they're trapped.
00:18:57.300 They have nothing else they can do.
00:18:58.780 They're about to lose their house.
00:19:00.120 They're about to lose everything.
00:19:01.860 And they call American Financing.
00:19:04.000 You would be surprised what they can do for you.
00:19:08.400 $854 every single month.
00:19:11.220 That's a $10,000 raise.
00:19:13.380 And that's just the beginning because you can also write that credit card interest off now
00:19:18.340 that you've rolled it into your mortgage.
00:19:20.540 It's a 10-minute call to see if they can do the same for you.
00:19:23.800 800-906-2440.
00:19:26.700 800-906-2440.
00:19:29.680 Go to American Financing, 800-906-2440, or AmericanFinancing.net.

00:20:39.980 His first interview since coming back from Russia.
00:20:42.540 Yeah.
00:20:42.800 And all the controversies.
00:20:44.860 Did you know he was criticized by Jon Stewart last night on The Daily Show?
00:20:48.700 No.
00:20:49.140 Which, I mean, they've had a history.
00:20:50.440 I would like to see him respond to this report.
00:20:54.880 Remind me of that.
00:20:55.780 I'll see if I have time.
00:20:57.380 I'll throw that in.
00:20:58.120 Yeah.
00:20:58.300 I have a lot of questions.
00:21:00.760 And, you know, Tucker and I are friends.
00:21:03.720 But I wrote to him when I found out this was happening.
00:21:07.300 And I said, I'm not going easy on you because you're a friend.
00:21:11.620 I just want you to know I am your friend.
00:21:14.060 But I'm also going to ask you the tough questions because I think people are confused.
00:21:19.680 I'm confused at times on what he means by what he's saying.
00:21:24.440 Like, you know, grocery stores are great and the streets are clean.
00:21:28.340 Yeah, of course.
00:21:30.060 Because they'll throw you off a rooftop.
00:21:33.740 Yeah, of course.
00:21:34.100 He knows this, right?
00:21:35.040 Yeah, he knows it.
00:21:35.540 He knows it.
00:21:36.000 So I'm interested to see how he explains it.
00:21:38.540 And like, yeah.
00:21:39.140 I mean, because he's getting beat up by, of course, obviously the left.
00:21:42.160 But, I mean, even some elements of the right.
00:21:43.780 And he doesn't care about that.
00:21:45.120 You know, that's one of the things I think is interesting about Tucker is when he does these interviews, he's happy to get the tough questions.
00:21:50.980 Oh, he is.
00:21:51.220 He really – like, I've seen him in those – we've seen him multiple times in these situations.
00:21:55.220 And he's like –
00:21:55.980 He does not shy away.
00:21:57.080 He doesn't care.
00:21:57.480 All he wants is the same thing I want.
00:21:59.480 All I want is a fair shake.
00:22:01.720 Yeah.
00:22:01.980 Yep.
00:22:02.220 I want somebody who's going into it open-minded that will say, all right, and I will.
00:22:07.280 If I don't buy into it, I'm going to talk to him a little bit about Dugan, because Dugan wrote this piece to him about him.
00:22:15.620 And I sent it to Tucker, and I said, have you read this?
00:22:19.240 This isn't good.
00:22:20.860 With Dugan embracing him and saying, look, he is now part of our movement.
00:22:25.940 That's not good.
00:22:27.180 That's not good.
00:22:27.860 So I want Tucker's response to that.
00:22:30.520 And I also want to – what does it feel like to be in a country where the guy you're talking to could have you killed or disappeared at any moment?
00:22:42.240 What does that feel like?

00:25:02.060 Hello, America.
00:25:03.240 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:25:04.940 Well, the presidential greatness ratings and rankings are finally in.
00:25:12.140 Yes, yes, the president and executive politics section of the American Political Science Association,
00:25:24.000 which is the foremost organization of social science experts in presidential politics,
00:25:30.200 as well as super, super smart scholars who are much more smart than you are, dummy.
00:25:37.700 They published a peer-reviewed academic research in key related scholarly journals and academic presses,
00:25:44.860 and 525 respondents were invited to participate.
00:25:50.480 Here we have the best presidents ranked in order.
00:25:58.100 525 were asked.
00:26:00.220 I think 154.
00:26:03.920 154.
00:26:05.020 Usable responses were received.
00:26:07.140 So, in other words, there were some that were like,
00:26:09.340 No, they used all those.
00:26:13.920 All right.
00:26:14.600 So, number one, Abraham Lincoln.
00:26:17.740 Don't think we can argue with that.
00:26:19.980 He's in the top five.
00:26:21.440 Yeah, top five.
00:26:22.640 I think, I don't know if I'd put him one, but...
00:26:24.840 Who would you put as one?
00:26:26.480 Probably Washington.
00:26:27.780 I would, too.
00:26:28.320 Me, too.
00:26:28.700 But, I mean, that's not a knock on Lincoln.
00:26:31.240 No.
00:26:31.460 No.
00:26:32.540 No.
00:26:32.660 But Washington was the one that demonstrated how to use power, how to get rid of power, how to go home.
00:26:40.800 You know, the two terms thing is all because of him.
00:26:44.120 I mean, he is...
00:26:45.460 But he's a reluctant president.
00:26:48.980 Just like Michelle Obama.
00:26:50.840 Okay, so they have to...
00:26:54.560 They still...
00:26:55.400 Number one is Lincoln.
00:26:57.560 Number two...
00:26:58.760 This is unbelievable.
00:26:59.700 ...is Franklin Roosevelt.
00:27:01.460 Oh, come on.
00:27:02.360 Stop it.
00:27:02.900 That's completely ridiculous.
00:27:03.720 He is one of the absolute worst.
00:27:05.880 He's bottom five.
00:27:07.120 Bottom five, for sure.
00:27:08.480 Well, if you'll notice the pattern here as we go on, the pattern is the scholars seem to love those who they can't get past.
00:27:17.640 You can't get past Lincoln.
00:27:18.920 You can't get past Washington.
00:27:20.320 You can't throw them into the dustbin.
00:27:22.320 Or you'll look like you're complete frogs.
00:27:24.640 They want to.
00:27:25.500 You know they want to.
00:27:26.260 But they want to.
00:27:26.680 They want to.
00:27:27.320 And so, if you look at the pattern of everybody that doesn't really make sense, it's because they fundamentally changed our systems.
00:27:39.900 FDR fundamentally changed.
00:27:42.120 We were this close to a dictatorship.
00:27:44.640 Mussolini said he's cut from our cloth.
00:27:47.140 Hitler said he's cut from our cloth.
00:27:49.600 He was going for this great state.
00:27:52.200 So, FDR.
00:27:54.360 Then, number three is Washington.
00:27:57.320 Under FDR.
00:28:00.360 That's, I mean, that's insanity.
00:28:02.600 It's insanity.
00:28:03.180 By the way, FDR, huge racist.
00:28:05.320 Huge racist.
00:28:06.400 Did not invite, what's his name, the runner, Jesse Owens.
00:28:12.180 Oh, yeah.
00:28:12.580 Didn't invite him.
00:28:13.460 Only medal winner.
00:28:15.100 Well, not invite.
00:28:15.640 The biggest and most important medal of that.
00:28:18.720 Of all time, maybe.
00:28:19.480 Wasn't invited.
00:28:22.360 Let's see.
00:28:23.060 So, Washington, then Theodore Roosevelt.
00:28:25.080 Another progressive.
00:28:25.960 Come on.
00:28:26.540 Come on.
00:28:27.140 Jeez.
00:28:27.700 Like, Theodore Roosevelt does not even belong anywhere close to the top of this list.
00:28:31.960 No.
00:28:32.040 I mean, he was, you know, you've mentioned this a million times.
00:28:34.880 Obviously, I mean, the man started the progressive party.
00:28:36.800 Of course, they love him.
00:28:38.620 But still, like.
00:28:39.900 Massive eugenics.
00:28:40.720 You could say he did incredible things in his life.
00:28:43.520 Oh, yeah.
00:28:43.700 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:28:44.380 Like, as a person?
00:28:45.340 Like, yeah.
00:28:46.220 But, like.
00:28:46.480 But what did he do?
00:28:47.500 What did he do as president?
00:28:49.000 What is he most famous for for doing as president?
00:28:51.760 I mean, he was, he, well, he really, like, continued what Wilson was doing, who's coming up soon in the countdown.
00:29:00.180 But continued that move in a way to make progressivism the homespun philosophy.
00:29:08.800 But as a president, as a president, he's responsible for the national parks.
00:29:15.040 He's, he's responsible.
00:29:16.720 Why is that scene as such a big accomplishment?
00:29:19.660 Because.
00:29:19.800 Hey, we fenced off a bunch of grass.
00:29:22.760 Because.
00:29:24.040 Remember the Ken Burns documentary?
00:29:26.120 The slogan for that documentary was America's greatest accomplishment.
00:29:30.140 What are you talking about?
00:29:31.340 The guy put a bunch of, what, fences around grass where animals can stay?
00:29:39.700 Well, there's gates, too, so that you could pay to get in.
00:29:42.060 Oh, wow.
00:29:42.740 Don't forget that.
00:29:43.520 What a thing.
00:29:44.360 I mean, we've, how many medical innovations have we created?
00:29:47.560 We've saved the world how many times?
00:29:49.460 They're like, oh, gosh, when they put those park benches out there, that was really a good thing that America did.
00:29:55.080 Hey, look, picnic tables.
00:29:57.240 But again, look at the two.
00:29:59.160 You've got Lincoln and Washington.
00:30:00.640 We understand.
00:30:01.340 Mm-hmm.
00:30:01.720 Okay?
00:30:02.720 Roosevelt and Roosevelt, they're both progressives.
00:30:06.260 They're both progressives.
00:30:07.360 Totally.
00:30:07.480 They're all about state power.
00:30:08.900 Yes.
00:30:09.120 Uh-huh.
00:30:09.640 Then Jefferson, another one you've got to go, okay, well, yeah, I mean, he wrote the Declaration of Independence.
00:30:15.260 Kind of a big deal.
00:30:15.880 Yes.
00:30:15.920 I think that's kind of a big deal.
00:30:17.000 Mm-hmm.
00:30:17.520 Then Truman.
00:30:18.480 But again, we should also point out, all these people were saying, oh, well, you know, they've got to throw them in,
00:30:22.600 are also the people that I guarantee some of these historians, if you looked at their Twitter feeds,
00:30:29.040 would be advocating for the tearing down of their statues.
00:30:33.140 Oh, for sure.
00:30:34.080 Like, I guarantee in 2020, go back and look at their George Floyd feeds at the time,
00:30:38.420 as they were encouraging Washington and Jefferson.
00:30:41.420 Washington and Jefferson.
00:30:42.340 And Lincoln.
00:30:42.880 Statues to come down.
00:30:43.560 And Lincoln's maybe the hardest argument to make on that one, but still.
00:30:47.840 Truman told them they wanted to bring it down in New York, in Washington, D.C.
00:30:50.380 And Franklin, they wanted to bring his statues down.
00:30:53.180 Harry Truman's a surprise, too, since he dropped the bomb on Japan.
00:30:56.200 Not only that, but he's the guy who said yes to Israel.
00:30:59.860 Yeah.
00:31:00.320 Right.
00:31:00.840 So, I mean, I'm shocked at him.
00:31:02.620 That's surprised.
00:31:03.260 Yeah, surprised.
00:31:03.680 Then number seven, Obama.
00:31:05.800 Oh, jeez.
00:31:06.200 Come on.
00:31:06.660 That's incredible.
00:31:07.280 Up to nine places since last time.
00:31:09.900 Just stupid.
00:31:10.820 You know why?
00:31:12.200 Sassanine.
00:31:12.920 Michelle Obama for president.
00:31:14.400 No, don't you?
00:31:15.640 Yeah.
00:31:16.040 Just stop trying to take my money.
00:31:17.280 Who's losing $1,000?
00:31:19.180 No!
00:31:19.320 No!
00:31:20.020 Yes.
00:31:20.800 Starting to think about just, I just want to push.
00:31:22.540 That's all I want is a push.
00:31:23.980 Like, we need, like, you know, Gavin Newsom or something to be the nominee, so I at least
00:31:27.260 don't have to pay $1,000.
00:31:29.040 Then Eisenhower.
00:31:31.220 Now, Eisenhower oversaw the building of the industrial military complex.
00:31:38.120 Yeah, but he bashed it at the end.
00:31:39.440 He did.
00:31:40.040 I know.
00:31:40.640 He said, we just built it.
00:31:42.820 You're going to have to deal with this.
00:31:45.040 Be afraid.
00:31:45.880 I just put this thing together for you that you're going to have to deal with for the rest
00:31:49.080 of America's existence, but look out for it, because it's really powerful and bad.
00:31:53.940 So, look what we have.
00:31:54.880 We have Obama built giant government, Eisenhower, giant government, then number nine, L.B. Johnson.
00:32:02.680 That might be the biggest abomination of them all.
00:32:04.820 Oh, my God.
00:32:05.120 Are you kidding?
00:32:05.600 I didn't see him at number nine.
00:32:07.240 Number nine.
00:32:08.400 A top ten president.
00:32:09.680 He is legitimately within the conversation for the worst president of all time.
00:32:15.100 No question.
00:32:15.600 It is.
00:32:16.260 It's in the conversation.
00:32:17.780 Now, you might say Woodrow Wilson, and I probably am going to lean that way, but if
00:32:22.680 you want to come up with, if you're coming up with, this is what I need to do at the top.
00:32:25.740 We need to do, like, we should get all the Blaze people to come in to give us the top
00:32:29.260 five worst presidents of all time, because L.B.J., to me, is on that list.
00:32:33.840 If he's not number one worst of all time, he's in the top two or three.
00:32:37.360 It's Wilson.
00:32:38.780 I'm not going to rank them, except Wilson is number one in all of them.
00:32:42.040 Yeah, of course.
00:32:43.320 It's Wilson, Obama, L.B.J., Biden.
00:32:49.940 I'd put Biden in there.
00:32:50.800 Biden might be number one or number two now.
00:32:53.220 Yeah, for sure.
00:32:54.620 It is Jackson, Andrew Jackson.
00:32:57.660 I put Carter in the conversation for that.
00:32:59.480 Carter, but Carter is almost like a hapless dupe compared to these guys.
00:33:04.460 But still, that's really bad.
00:33:05.540 He started the Department of Education, so he built the great state.
00:33:09.140 Look at everyone they like wanted a dictatorship.
00:33:13.920 All of them.
00:33:15.180 They didn't call it that, but that's what they wanted.
00:33:17.940 They built this deep state.
00:33:20.760 Then Kennedy is at number 10.
00:33:22.400 He's up four, which I find interesting, because Kennedy is probably the only one
00:33:27.260 that wouldn't be allowed in the Democratic Party now.
00:33:30.960 All the ones we just mentioned, they'd still love, and they'd bring them in.
00:33:34.320 Kennedy, no way.
00:33:36.240 Kennedy wanted to break up the military-industrial complex.
00:33:39.800 Kennedy cut taxes like nobody's business.
00:33:43.340 I mean, he was practically Ronald Reagan in comparison.
00:33:47.640 Then James Madison comes in after Truman, Eisenhower, Obama, Johnson.
00:33:55.520 L.B.J.?
00:33:55.900 Oh, my gosh.
00:33:57.100 Then James Madison.
00:33:58.220 Okay, yeah, the guy who wrote the U.S. Constitution.
00:34:01.540 Let's put him.
00:34:03.260 11th.
00:34:03.700 11th.
00:34:04.120 Behind a guy who created a bunch of programs that are completely bankrupting us.
00:34:08.920 Yes.
00:34:09.060 Right?
00:34:09.220 Like, we are all aware as to why we're going to soon be spending a trillion dollars a year
00:34:15.460 in just interest.
00:34:17.460 Because of L.B.J.?
00:34:18.780 We're like, oh, yeah, bye-bye.
00:34:19.900 You know, the good thing about it, the redeeming quality, he was an incredible racist.
00:34:23.380 And he was a drunk driver.
00:34:25.420 Let's put him at number nine.
00:34:27.640 Gosh, number nine.
00:34:29.460 Then, after Madison, then comes Bill Clinton, then comes John Adams, then comes Biden.
00:34:39.580 So we have 14.
00:34:41.340 Accused rapist followed by.
00:34:43.420 Hey, and Biden at 14 is, look, I don't know.
00:34:48.740 It's so outrageous.
00:34:49.060 The Barack Obama thing is so expected, it didn't surprise me at all, right?
00:34:53.940 I mean, you do have to say, there is, at this point with historians, there is, you know,
00:35:00.460 kind of a magic around him because he was America's second black president.
00:35:04.220 Right.
00:35:05.100 And ahead of the first black president now.
00:35:07.820 It's weird.
00:35:08.520 But, like, you know, you kind of understand the recency bias thing in these things is
00:35:12.500 always big, right?
00:35:13.460 Like, Biden being there is not all that shocking because of its recency bias.
00:35:20.540 Obama, I'm expecting.
00:35:21.740 And, you know, the end of this, of course, everyone probably knows by now is Trump and
00:35:25.220 last, which is also part of the recency bias, right?
00:35:27.500 Like, once the next president gets in that's a Republican, they're all going to say, oh,
00:35:32.020 well, that he's even worse than Trump.
00:35:33.460 Like, we all know that's going to happen on these lists.
00:35:35.900 But it's like the Obama thing.
00:35:39.700 OK, first black president, like they got their Obamacare.
00:35:43.320 There's things that, you know, they're going to like, what on earth argument is there for
00:35:47.380 Joe Biden with a 37 percent approval rating to be the 14th greatest president of all time?
00:35:53.800 You're not going to.
00:35:55.020 Absurd.
00:35:55.380 The rest of the list is not going to improve your mood.
00:35:59.100 By the way, we should, you know, tomorrow I'm going to have a poll ready with all the
00:36:03.540 presidents and you just, you just rank them.
00:36:07.220 OK, if you don't know who they are, you know, because like Polk, I don't know.
00:36:11.700 What did Polk do?
00:36:12.820 I don't know.
00:36:13.120 Mexican-American War.
00:36:15.100 OK, so he's bad.
00:36:16.660 By the way, it's also Tuesday.
00:36:17.860 This will be James K. Polk Tuesdays.
00:36:19.760 Right.
00:36:20.180 Just pointing that out.
00:36:21.380 That for historians, the police might not recognize that.
00:36:25.180 Rutherford B. Hayes.
00:36:26.800 What did he do?
00:36:27.740 All kinds of things.
00:36:28.900 You guys into Chester A. Arthur now.
00:36:30.480 Chester A. Arthur.
00:36:31.420 Yeah.
00:36:31.740 I mean, there's some that we would just, we'll cut the list down.
00:36:36.840 You're going to just eliminate Chester A. Arthur?
00:36:39.960 No, I'll leave them all in there, but you don't have to vote for him.
00:36:42.940 Don't do what you do when you're voting for judges.
00:36:45.340 Like, I don't know.
00:36:46.820 So you're Republican or Democrat.
00:36:49.020 Whatever.
00:36:50.380 Let's do five best, five worst.
00:36:52.540 Right?
00:36:52.800 That's all you really need, right?
00:36:54.060 Five best, five worst.
00:36:54.660 I'd like to see top ten.
00:36:56.020 Top ten, bottom ten.
00:36:57.200 OK.
00:36:57.500 OK, we'll do that.
00:36:59.020 All right.
00:36:59.780 Back in just a minute.
00:37:00.760 Thank you, Pat, from Pat Gray.

00:37:17.480 It might be somewhere in between those.
00:37:19.780 And we'll find out with Tucker live today at 2.30 Eastern.

00:37:40.020 About ten years ago, I think.
00:37:41.600 If you're looking to buy or sell a home or both, you need great real estate agents.
00:37:47.440 And sometimes you'll need one in one city and one in the other.

00:37:57.300 Realestateagentsitrust.com can help you.
00:37:59.580 Now, not in every market because we don't have people in every market.
00:38:02.720 We don't just – I think we have a waiting list to be on this, you know, list of this roster of real estate agents.
00:38:10.880 I think we have a list now, a waiting list of like 10,000.
00:38:15.420 We don't just approve people.
00:38:18.020 And we keep the number down so we know exactly who these people are and we can monitor them.
00:38:23.400 So, if you're looking to buy or sell a home, get the right real estate agent.
00:38:27.900 It's a free service to you.

00:38:37.000 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:38:39.160 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
00:39:00.760 Glad you're here.
00:39:01.440 You know, I'm just looking at this crazy, absolutely crazy poll that,
00:39:09.160 where Joe Biden is in the middle of the pack of the greatest presidents ever.
00:39:16.420 I mean, this – you know, you can't do anything because you ask people for the greatest president of all time now on conservatives,
00:39:23.020 and I bet some would say that it's Donald Trump.
00:39:25.920 Right, which is – first of all, he's a one-term president so far.
00:39:29.220 Right.
00:39:29.700 He did a lot in one term.
00:39:32.460 He exposed a lot in one term.
00:39:35.200 He recognized the state of Israel and the capital being Jerusalem.
00:39:40.240 That was very good.
00:39:41.300 His Israel stuff, he does not get enough credit for.
00:39:43.160 Yeah, his Middle East policy, he doesn't get enough credit for.
00:39:46.380 His oil policies, he doesn't get enough credit for.
00:39:51.440 But again, like, there's recency bias on both sides, right?
00:39:54.300 Like, we're probably also going to say that Biden and Obama are the worst presidents of all time,
00:39:59.480 which – again, they're on the running.
00:40:01.280 Well, it depends on what you're –
00:40:02.960 I mean, what is it that you are trying to go?
00:40:05.200 If you're saying – what makes the best president?
00:40:09.180 A constitutional president that lives within his means?
00:40:15.080 Adams doesn't do well on that.
00:40:16.780 I mean, Adams was the first to do, you know, the censoring of the press and putting political foes, you know,
00:40:23.720 and trying to silence them with the Sedition Act.
00:40:26.420 Yeah.
00:40:27.040 But I mean, like, if you look at, like – like Barack Obama, for example, Obamacare,
00:40:31.320 you would say maybe – you want to say the most central part of his presidency, if you want to point to one thing.
00:40:36.380 And that was – it's really, really bad.
00:40:38.380 But there's no way to argue it's worse than what LBJ did.
00:40:42.120 And I mean, it's – the Great Society is – I mean, like, we are – it's like he just added on a little bit of extra seasoning to the terrible recipe when you compare Biden to LBJ.
00:40:55.740 Yeah, I think the LBJ's policies are the worst.
00:40:58.720 And it happened because you had an assassination and you were at the end of the civil rights movement and it was –
00:41:08.400 By the way, he, we should also note, was one of the main opponents of –
00:41:12.920 No, he stopped the Republicans doing it from – in 1959.
00:41:17.280 But how – I mean, like, how does a guy – after you're tearing down statues of George Washington,
00:41:22.420 how do you put LBJ in the top 10 as a guy who stopped that entire movement?
00:41:28.420 Because race isn't as important to them as big government.
00:41:33.380 They just want big, oppressive, controlling government.
00:41:39.240 And so all this stuff about race is garbage.
00:41:42.760 The guy was using the N-word till the day he died.
00:41:45.800 He was an absolute racist.
00:41:48.540 The Great Society.
00:41:50.180 What were the effects?
00:41:51.180 Oh, I don't know.
00:41:52.180 Destroy the black American family.
00:41:54.620 So it just depends what are we judging this on.
00:41:59.180 If you're – if you are a scholar, you're probably saying which one has moved us closer to utopia with a controlling system.
00:42:08.060 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:42:10.180 All right, let me tell you about Rough Greens.
00:42:11.780 Owning your dog is a lot of responsibility.
00:42:14.440 Taking care of their basic needs isn't always as simple as it might seem.
00:42:18.200 That's why we always say no to the kids.
00:42:20.160 I want a dog.
00:42:21.360 No.
00:42:21.800 Feed Uno and take care of him for two months straight.
00:42:26.980 You do it, we'll get a dog.
00:42:29.280 No.
00:42:30.780 You have to really pay attention.
00:42:32.820 And when your dog doesn't eat like Uno didn't, we tried everything.
00:42:37.040 And then we tried Rough Greens.
00:42:39.040 Rough Greens was created by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
00:42:42.560 And it's full of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, antioxidants, you name it.
00:42:46.060 It's healthy for your dog.
00:42:46.980 It's probably in Rough Greens.
00:42:48.100 Now, this isn't a food.
00:42:48.940 This is something you sprinkle on his kibble food or whatever he's eating.
00:42:52.540 And dogs love it.
00:42:54.320 It's like dog crack.
00:42:55.660 He eats everything in his bowl now.
00:42:58.160 And we've seen a tremendous difference in his activity level with Rough Greens.

00:44:07.720 Oh, my gosh.
00:44:08.260 Are we this stupid?
00:44:10.020 Are we this?
00:44:10.920 I forget it.
00:44:11.660 I know the answer to that.

00:45:49.220 Forget about those.
00:45:50.120 Who's on your top five best presidents?
00:45:52.900 Mine?
00:45:53.440 Yeah.
00:45:55.100 Okay.
00:45:56.460 George Washington, of course.
00:45:58.300 Their greatest president.
00:45:59.400 Greatest American.
00:46:00.060 I'm going to have to go with James Madison.
00:46:08.620 I'm going to have to go with Reagan.
00:46:13.300 And I'm going to have to go with Calvin Coolidge, the most underrated president.
00:46:17.640 Yes, yes.
00:46:18.460 And Donald J.
00:46:19.860 Trump.
00:46:20.500 And Donald J.
00:46:21.240 Trump.
00:46:21.460 I told you you couldn't use him, but you went ahead and did it anyway.
00:46:24.180 Okay, then I'm going to go with, I'm going to have to go with Harding, who died in office,
00:46:36.660 but he was, he's ranked by the liberals as one of the worst presidents, but of course,
00:46:42.740 the liberals are crazy, but I like him.
00:46:47.120 Now, I'm going to say this, the thing that's most amazing about that poll, because we just
00:46:52.620 wrote something in our hotline this morning about this, that this is almost hilarious,
00:46:57.920 that they rank Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton as greater presidents than Ronald
00:47:04.900 Reagan.
00:47:05.440 I know.
00:47:06.000 Incredible.
00:47:06.640 The man who won the Cold War, who revived the American economy, rebuilt America.
00:47:11.480 I mean, as I said, you know, this says much more about American scholars and university
00:47:19.880 professors than it does about who's a good president and who's not.
00:47:22.440 But if you look at their list, it really is, the ones they favor the most are the ones who
00:47:29.280 made the most advances for an end to constitutional, you know, balance.
00:47:37.480 Of course.
00:47:37.980 Yeah.
00:47:38.120 So, you know, for example, I would say, I think you and I, we've talked about this over
00:47:42.400 the years, Glenn, I think you and I agree that our worst president was Woodrow Wilson.
00:47:46.620 Yes.
00:47:47.520 Who gave us the quote, progressive movement, put us into World War I.
00:47:52.660 I don't believe we should have ever been in World War I.
00:47:54.700 Me neither.
00:47:55.940 And so I think Wilson's one of the worst.
00:47:59.580 And, you know, FDR is one of the most overrated as well.
00:48:03.960 But he was a racist and and, you know, and not a not a great guy.
00:48:09.820 I think, you know, he was OK in in World War II.
00:48:13.360 He gave people hope with his speeches, et cetera, et cetera.
00:48:16.300 But he created this giant state and he also welcomed all the communists into our into our
00:48:24.180 country, in our government.
00:48:26.100 Yep, he did.
00:48:29.060 And and we wouldn't have, you know, two trillion dollar deficits today if it were not for FDR.
00:48:36.500 So your worst, the worst.
00:48:39.360 Give me the top five worst.
00:48:41.680 Well, Wilson, obviously, I think I don't know the 19th century presidents that well.
00:48:49.180 Yeah.
00:48:49.340 So I can't say I mean, Buchanan was awful, horrible president.
00:48:53.800 I think Jimmy Carter has to be one of the worst.
00:48:57.260 And LBJ, you know, did you say LBJ was pretty, pretty bad president?
00:49:04.780 I would say, you know, you said I couldn't say Biden, right?
00:49:09.240 Well, you're going to anyway.
00:49:11.140 I think Biden really is a truly horrible president in every way.
00:49:15.600 In every way.
00:49:16.180 He's much worse.
00:49:17.740 You know, I didn't think we could get he could be worse than Obama, but he has been.
00:49:21.880 Yeah.
00:49:22.900 Well, he's I mean, I think he's doing all the things that Obama wanted to do and not get
00:49:28.060 credit for.
00:49:29.020 It's the third term.
00:49:29.880 And now they want Obama fourth term with with with bringing in Michelle.
00:49:34.680 I have a thousand dollar bet riding on this with Stu.
00:49:38.120 He says, no way.
00:49:39.500 I say that's the plan.
00:49:43.020 Yeah.
00:49:43.420 Well, great minds think alike.
00:49:45.160 Yeah.
00:49:45.600 By the way, I pray that, you know, when I say my prayers that night, you know, I say,
00:49:49.600 please keep Joe Biden healthy.
00:49:51.160 Please, please, please.
00:49:52.280 No, no stroke.
00:49:53.140 No, nothing.
00:49:53.740 We want to run against Joe Biden.
00:49:56.340 All right.
00:49:56.900 Let's talk a little bit about because the the left is all talking about how wonderful
00:50:02.560 this is.
00:50:03.200 This economy is.
00:50:04.240 And I've been saying recently it's because, well, if you look at what the upper crust is
00:50:10.480 happening to them, they're not affected as much by any stretch of the imagination by the
00:50:17.260 by inflation.
00:50:18.840 But especially if you're a giant corporation or you're in with the cool kids, you're making money hand over fist.
00:50:26.620 But you say the stock market is not actually doing as well as everybody thinks.
00:50:32.660 Yeah.
00:50:34.220 So if you look at one of the first rules of investing is you're you have to take a look at your
00:50:40.420 after inflation rate of return on your money, not your before inflation rate of return.
00:50:45.880 So, you know, how much can you buy with the money?
00:50:49.660 You know, that you're making.
00:50:51.880 And so we've had inflation is up 20 percent since since Biden came in office in his first
00:50:58.640 three years.
00:50:59.140 That's a dismal, dismal record.
00:51:01.000 It's Jimmy Carter levels of inflation.
00:51:03.840 And so the stock market is up, you know, under over that period by about 28 percent.
00:51:09.980 But 20 percent of that 28 percent.
00:51:12.560 I mean, you know, so two thirds of that is just due to the higher prices.
00:51:16.720 So when you adjust it for inflation, the stock market is up about eight or nine percent under
00:51:23.140 Biden in real terms.
00:51:25.460 You know what the number was, Glenn, for Donald Trump?
00:51:30.340 20?
00:51:31.540 Guessing.
00:51:32.160 32.
00:51:32.740 32.
00:51:33.060 32.
00:51:34.100 Holy cow.
00:51:34.920 So, you know, so, you know, about three to four times higher rate of returns.
00:51:39.820 Now, look, the market's doing well this year.
00:51:42.580 I mean, there's no doubt about that.
00:51:44.000 How?
00:51:44.220 There was a funny article in the Wall Street Journal yesterday or this morning, I guess
00:51:49.220 it was saying, you know, gee, the economy's saying exactly what you were just kind of
00:51:53.220 spoofing.
00:51:53.740 You know, economy's doing so well.
00:51:54.860 Why are people so unhappy?
00:51:56.280 Right.
00:51:56.540 Well, because this is the most important number.
00:51:59.400 In fact, I saw President Trump last week and I showed him this chart that really tells
00:52:04.400 the whole story.
00:52:05.820 So under Donald Trump, one of the things we were proud of was that the median income in
00:52:12.540 the United States for a family, the median means is, you know, people are exactly in the
00:52:16.700 middle.
00:52:17.220 They saw a $6,000 increase in the real incomes, which is big.
00:52:22.360 That's a big number over, you know, four years.
00:52:25.260 You know what the number is under Biden so far?
00:52:28.180 No.
00:52:29.480 Negative 2,000.
00:52:32.180 Wow.
00:52:32.740 Wait, wait, negative what?
00:52:34.680 Negative 2,000.
00:52:36.940 So what I'm saying is, and this is something nobody in the media seems to get, there's
00:52:41.780 a reason Americans are unhappy because they're poorer today than when Biden came into office,
00:52:47.020 period.
00:52:47.460 Hard stop.
00:52:47.860 Everybody knows that.
00:52:49.420 Yes.
00:52:49.920 Everybody knows that.
00:52:51.100 So when you look at all of this, I mean, I would think that this would be a real, in
00:52:58.120 any other time in my life, this would be an open and shut gate.
00:53:01.340 For sure, Joe Biden would be losing, right?
00:53:06.240 Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
00:53:07.740 At any other time.
00:53:10.260 What can they do to juice this?
00:53:14.640 To make people feel in the short term.
00:53:18.340 And have you heard of anything?
00:53:20.080 Are they, what are they doing?
00:53:21.840 What's the Fed doing?
00:53:23.580 Treasury?
00:53:24.780 Right.
00:53:26.120 So that's a great question.
00:53:28.200 I get, I get asked that question all the time.
00:53:30.400 What are they going to try to do to juice the economy?
00:53:32.880 And the first obvious thing, and I'm not saying, I'm not making accusations here.
00:53:38.340 I'm just saying it's a possibility that the Fed under Jerome Powell will juice the economy
00:53:43.960 with a huge deluge of money.
00:53:45.940 You know, and in the short term, that makes people feel richer, right?
00:53:49.280 Of course, pretty soon people realize it's just inflated money that they're getting.
00:53:54.160 So, you know, keep an eye on that.
00:53:56.520 Does the Fed start really lowering interest rates and pumping trillions of dollars more
00:54:01.040 money into the economy?
00:54:02.100 That's what they did in the first two years of the Biden administration.
00:54:05.360 The second thing they're doing is priming the pump by massive increases in government
00:54:09.620 spending and debt.
00:54:10.460 You know, there's, Biden is not just the most financially responsible president in history.
00:54:17.880 He is by far the most financially responsible president.
00:54:21.460 We've increased the debt by, I know these numbers are incomprehensible, but a $6 trillion
00:54:27.540 increase in three years in our national debt.
00:54:30.240 I mean, even nobody's ever come close to that.
00:54:34.040 And by the way, we're not in a war.
00:54:35.340 I know my check.
00:54:36.960 It's not like World War II.
00:54:38.720 What is it?
00:54:39.180 Where is all that money going?
00:54:40.300 It'd be one thing if we're borrowing for, you know, to fix our roads or better hospitals
00:54:44.780 or better schools.
00:54:45.960 What have we gotten for that $6 trillion?
00:54:48.160 Oh, windmills and yeah, these that nobody wants to buy.
00:54:52.320 Right.
00:54:52.640 So it's, it's been, and did you know, by the way, Glenn, this is something that sticks in
00:54:57.680 my throat.
00:54:58.580 Um, did you know there was a 350 billion, I didn't say million, billion dollar green
00:55:06.820 energy slush fund run being run out of the white house.
00:55:09.780 Do you know that $350 billion?
00:55:13.740 What, how, how, this is the so-called inflation reduction act.
00:55:19.860 It created a $350 billion program where the white house just passed out money.
00:55:25.540 No, I'm not done yet, Glenn.
00:55:27.400 Do you know who runs that program?
00:55:30.800 You're not going to believe this.
00:55:32.620 John Podesta.
00:55:34.420 Oh my gosh.
00:55:36.440 John Podesta.
00:55:37.340 How much do you think he knows about energy policy?
00:55:39.640 He's just a political hack.
00:55:41.700 So they have a $350 billion slush fund.
00:55:45.940 Where do you think that's money?
00:55:47.120 Money is going.
00:55:48.060 It's going to every democratic operative.
00:55:50.420 It's going to every green energy group.
00:55:52.660 It's going to all these businesses that have, you know, giving campaign contributions to
00:55:57.100 Biden.
00:55:57.700 This is the biggest graft in the history of the United States.
00:56:03.220 Well, you're not improving my mood much.
00:56:05.900 Uh, all right, let me ask you.
00:56:09.120 350, but I work at the heritage foundation.
00:56:10.960 We're the largest conservative think tank.
00:56:13.880 $350 billion.
00:56:15.400 That's like 3000 heritage foundation.
00:56:18.380 See, that's the scariest thing to me.
00:56:21.560 All this money that's sloshing around.
00:56:23.640 I know, you know, I can't prove it.
00:56:26.480 My gut just tells me a lot of this war money is going all over the world, setting up new
00:56:34.320 little NGOs and little things that help them.
00:56:37.440 I mean, I would be shocked if we find out in the end that that's not what happened to
00:56:43.760 a lot of that money.
00:56:44.560 Of course, of course it's it.
00:56:46.820 It's going into the hands of it's a pay to play operation.
00:56:50.260 And that's why the Democrats, you know, if you've been noticing, they're raising three
00:56:54.600 times as much money as the Republicans are right now.
00:56:57.420 Well, you can raise a lot of money if you're passing out $350 billion.
00:57:02.340 Jeez.
00:57:03.860 Uh, all right.
00:57:04.940 Can, can I ask you two questions?
00:57:06.540 I'm trying to tear you up.
00:57:07.380 I know, no, you're not doing it.
00:57:09.100 Um, all right, give me, give me a minute.
00:57:12.120 I want to ask you two questions on Trump.
00:57:13.980 One of them is about the $355 million.
00:57:17.800 He had 400 million in cash.
00:57:19.720 That's, that's gone now.
00:57:21.020 He's got to actually step up with that money to put it in a bond, even if, you know, he
00:57:26.920 does go to trial again.
00:57:28.800 Um, that's a lot of money to lose.
00:57:32.460 Uh, and I also want to talk to you about debt spending with Donald Trump.
00:57:36.020 We'll do that in 60 seconds.
00:57:37.640 Stand by.
00:57:38.440 Got a challenge for you.
00:57:39.680 If you're like most people, there are probably some things you'd change about your mobile
00:57:42.740 plan.
00:57:43.100 If it wasn't a big hassle, right?
00:57:44.760 You'd get in there, fiddle around with it, maybe save some money in the process.

00:58:48.840 10 seconds.
00:58:49.400 Station ID.
00:58:49.820 So with the Democrats getting all of this money, uh, and out raising the Republicans,
00:59:06.360 you know, in a big way and Donald Trump having his cat, what he said he had 400 million in
00:59:13.160 cash, that's all gone, uh, because of these judgments.
00:59:16.680 Uh, what is your, what, what I'm sure he doesn't let you in on all of these.
00:59:23.320 Maybe he does, but how are you feeling about his ability to run?
00:59:29.080 Well, um, I don't know about his personal finances, so I can't really talk about that.
00:59:33.800 Um, I mean, I think as 90% of Americans that this is the most, one of the most outrageous
00:59:38.280 verdicts ever, as you know, as you know, this was a, a victimless crime.
00:59:44.760 If it was a crime at all, no one, no one has ever been prosecuted or even found guilty
00:59:51.840 if they were, uh, for this particular crime in 70 years, nobody.
00:59:57.300 No.
00:59:57.900 And here's the thing.
00:59:59.440 Let's say that, uh, you know, I come to you and say, you know, I've got this great property
01:00:04.100 and I want to sell it to you, Glenn.
01:00:06.240 And, uh, and, and I've, I appraised it at $5 million.
01:00:09.880 Right.
01:00:10.080 So do you want to buy it for me?
01:00:12.160 And, uh, are you just going to say, oh yeah.
01:00:15.100 Okay.
01:00:15.460 If you say it's worth $5 million, I'll, you know, I'm going to say, let me look at it.
01:00:19.820 Let me review it and see, and I'll get somebody else to evaluate that.
01:00:24.140 That's how it always works.
01:00:25.560 Of course.
01:00:26.940 And, and people will, um, you know, overestimate the value of it's like when you buy a house,
01:00:32.200 you bid below the asking price.
01:00:33.800 Right.
01:00:34.280 And you also go, you do have a house doctor come in and make sure that everything is working,
01:00:38.820 blah, blah, blah.
01:00:39.180 So the idea that, um, and by the way, people, the people bought these properties for, from
01:00:43.900 Trump made money.
01:00:44.920 They didn't lose money.
01:00:46.020 They made money.
01:00:46.900 So I, my head is twisted around.
01:00:49.580 I don't understand how this is fraud.
01:00:51.880 But, and, uh, so what is the effect, what is the effect, um, uh, on New York state?
01:00:58.300 I mean, Hochul came out and said, the big deal.
01:01:00.480 Yeah.
01:01:00.760 Did you see that, uh, a couple of major investors today, just a leery and a couple others said,
01:01:06.940 um, we're out of here.
01:01:07.900 And by the way, the last thing New York needs right now is more people to leave more of,
01:01:13.060 and incidentally people like Donald Trump who built, you know, he, he built, you know,
01:01:18.660 so many of these properties, he helped build New York.
01:01:21.320 And this is the way they repay him.
01:01:23.400 I mean, do you remember, you know, the story about the skating rick, they couldn't, they
01:01:27.980 couldn't get it together.
01:01:29.220 You know, he walked, he, it was taken years to do this and he came in and he got it done
01:01:33.380 in six months.
01:01:34.360 So, uh, no good deed ever goes unpunished in politics.
01:01:38.320 This is a very scary, as you know, I think while you're by the way, it's just a personal
01:01:44.100 story.
01:01:44.460 I worked for Trump.
01:01:45.300 I was one of his economists.
01:01:46.820 I swear to God, but I'm not making this up.
01:01:49.180 Sometimes I wake up in a cold sweat in the middle of night and I am, I have this dream
01:01:53.920 that I go to the door in the middle of night, somebody's pounding on my door.
01:01:57.500 I open it up and there's three FBI agents with machine nuts there, uh, to haul me.
01:02:01.620 I mean, I feel like we're living in the Soviet union, the way they're going after anybody,
01:02:06.220 not just Trump, but anybody who supported Trump.
01:02:09.140 Oh, I know, I know.
01:02:11.160 So, uh, thank you by the way for this, Stephen, and thank you for still standing up.
01:02:16.360 There's a lot of people that are bailing because they don't want the hassle.
01:02:20.620 And, uh, I know that, uh, and it's not hassle.
01:02:23.320 It's the potential of gulag if this continues.
01:02:27.240 Uh, and it's, it's frightening.
01:02:28.940 Can I just say one thing, Glenn, cause it's important.
01:02:30.620 And Trump says this and people kind of laugh, the left laughs at him, but it is true.
01:02:35.620 They're not just going after him.
01:02:38.420 Oh, I know.
01:02:39.120 They're going after anyone who supports him or work for him.
01:02:43.000 And it's not just him.
01:02:44.560 It's anyone that opposes and has any kind of impact in, in look at Elon Musk.
01:02:51.340 He buys Twitter and that's when seven federal investigations start on him.
01:02:57.300 Right.
01:02:57.880 I mean, they'll do it to anybody.
01:02:59.840 They'll do it to anybody.
01:03:00.980 And they are, and they are, uh, Stephen, let me, um, we have to have you on more often.
01:03:05.900 I keep saying this every time you're on, but, um, but, uh, let me ask you one thing that
01:03:11.120 we can't handle is giant debt and Donald Trump doesn't have a problem with debt.
01:03:16.960 Um, he wants to grow it.
01:03:18.680 And so you pay for that debt and I get that, but we've got, is he going to get in and just
01:03:23.360 continue this kind of spending?
01:03:26.140 Well, you know, first of all, I, I admire so much of what Trump did.
01:03:29.700 For our economy and for our country.
01:03:31.440 And, and, but you're right.
01:03:32.700 You know, the one issue he was not good on is he, he, he did not cut the budget.
01:03:37.180 I want to see the budget cut.
01:03:38.620 You do.
01:03:39.040 Um, but yeah, but if you're growing the economy, you know, that helps a lot in terms of reducing
01:03:45.460 the burden of the debt.
01:03:47.220 Um, he will, uh, get better trade deals.
01:03:49.920 He's going to get control of the border.
01:03:51.300 He's going to produce American energy.
01:03:53.100 He's going to do all these things that are so good for the economy.
01:03:55.560 But I hate to tell you this, you know, politicians love to play Santa Claus, you know, they love
01:04:01.320 to pass out other people's money.
01:04:02.980 So at some point that kills us to lower the debt is to, is to get more revenue in by growing
01:04:08.240 the economy faster.
01:04:09.300 It was the same thing that Reagan did.
01:04:11.640 However, uh, at some point we've spent too much and we're, I mean, we just cannot keep
01:04:17.680 up with this kind of, uh, spending.
01:04:20.500 Steven Moore, uh, thank you so much.
01:04:22.920 Always good to talk to you, my friend.
01:04:24.500 God bless you.

01:04:39.300 Glenn Beck.
01:04:46.760 If you're hoping that any day now this federal government is going to write the ship on the
01:04:50.980 economy, I hope you pack to lunch because you're going to be waiting a long time for
01:04:55.040 that.
01:04:55.740 The unfortunate truth is not only is the government not going to do that, they're trying to do
01:05:00.300 the exact opposite.

01:05:06.900 in the other direction.

01:06:17.760 Carol Roth, a former New York Wall Street banker who, you know, woke up and went, who?
01:06:25.600 What am I?
01:06:26.720 Am I on the wrong side?
01:06:29.480 And she has done an awful lot of good.
01:06:32.500 She's the author now of You Will Own Nothing, former investment banker.
01:06:37.340 She we have her on because I want to talk to her about BlackRock's new voting system.
01:06:42.060 But she has a couple of things I want to let you know.
01:06:44.880 First, she has a new newsletter out.
01:06:47.000 Carol Roth dot com slash news.
01:06:49.960 Sign up for it.
01:06:51.220 Carol Roth dot com slash news.
01:06:53.820 Carol, I wanted to start with you because you are a former New York investment banker.
01:06:59.060 What is the fallout going to be on this Donald Trump conviction and three hundred and fifty five million dollar fine?
01:07:11.440 Never been done before.
01:07:12.740 Not even with the Gambino crime family.
01:07:15.300 They never did this.
01:07:16.900 Yeah.
01:07:17.000 OK, so I'm just going to correct San Francisco investment banker because I don't want to lump myself in with all of those New York investment bankers.
01:07:23.560 Like that's any better.
01:07:24.500 So this the implications of this are horrifying for everybody who is in business.
01:07:35.880 When you think about presenting your company in the best light, whether it is a startup firm, a venture capital firm, a private equity firm, real estate holdings, any publicly or privately held company that has adjusted EBITDA.
01:07:55.200 They are saying, you know, here's what we think the business is, but we're going to put this in the best light and what this particular judgment has done, in my opinion, has said, you know, even if somebody hasn't gotten hurt, even if, you know, the bank that you've presented this to or the investors said, hey, we made a ton of money.
01:08:13.760 We're not a counterparty to the suit that the state can come in and say, well, we don't think this is right.
01:08:21.100 We've done our own calculations.
01:08:22.680 We've seen that you have some numbers that you got wrong here and we're going to charge you with fraud civilly, not criminally civilly, and then put in some insane judgment that is basically like sticking your finger in the air and seeing which way the wind blows because there is no actual damages.
01:08:42.900 The bank has said that they were not victimized, that they made a ton of fees, and so who really is the counterparty here?
01:08:52.840 They're saying that there was some sort of ill-gotten gain.
01:08:55.200 They made this up, and this has an incredibly disturbing implication for any business.
01:09:02.240 If this is the standard, then basically I would say every business in the United States, somebody needs to be thrown in jail and assessed hundreds of millions of dollars
01:09:11.700 because this happens throughout all of business.
01:09:15.400 I will tell you, if Elon Musk was still in California, I bet he'd be shaking in his boots because if this could happen in New York, it could happen in California,
01:09:24.960 and they're already going after him with all kinds of stuff.
01:09:28.840 Even if you're on the right side currently, if your company ever falls against the state on anything,
01:09:36.160 you're opening up yourself for the end.
01:09:40.300 I mean, how much of an impact will this have on businesses being and locating themselves in New York?
01:09:49.180 Well, that's the interesting question because everybody thinks that it can't happen to them.
01:09:54.720 Oh, it's Donald Trump.
01:09:56.140 He's done all of these things that we've heard about in the media.
01:09:59.280 This can never happen to me, and there's a lot of ego and a lot of hubris, particularly with the financial services and other companies that are based in New York City.
01:10:09.480 We have seen some level of exodus based on crime, taxes, and other decisions.
01:10:15.840 So obviously the ones who have been savvy have already gotten out of there or started to decouple from New York.
01:10:21.960 But I think when something like this happens, they see this big personality, and they say it can't happen to me.
01:10:32.060 But why not?
01:10:33.560 Why can't it happen to you?
01:10:34.820 If you go against whatever the narrative is, if you go against the state and you say something that they don't like,
01:10:42.560 this is, as we've talked about before, sort of a soft form of social credit.
01:10:47.660 You are not aligned with what we want, so we are going to find ways to penalize you financially.
01:10:54.360 It's terrible.
01:10:54.640 And it is absolutely terrifying.
01:10:57.360 All right.
01:10:57.760 So let me talk to you here.
01:10:59.840 We have about six minutes here to talk about this.
01:11:03.840 Justin Haskins, who is my co-writer of my book, we talk about ESG and all of this stuff all the time, go back and forth.
01:11:14.000 If you think I'm a pessimist, he's even more of a pessimist.
01:11:20.640 But he wrote to me the other day, and he's like, Glenn, this is great news.
01:11:24.320 The U.S. ESG bills and the European ESG collapse, and now companies are getting out.
01:11:30.660 Even BlackRock says they're getting out of it.
01:11:32.540 And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, we're entering the time of an election, and this is also what every progressive institution does.
01:11:44.540 They are exposed.
01:11:46.560 Oh, we're not going to do that with your gas stove.
01:11:49.540 And then they do it anyway in another form.
01:11:52.460 Are you – I mean, we should celebrate that we have them on the ropes, but we cannot let the pressure up.
01:11:59.960 We have to pursue them because they're trying to make an escape.
01:12:04.280 Yeah, I think this is the absolute perfect analogy, and I know, Justin, we have some conversations offline as well about all of this stuff.
01:12:11.640 And I do think there are a lot of things to celebrate because of the work that you and Justin have done, Glenn, your audience has done in raising awareness, some of the state-level leadership.
01:12:23.080 We are seeing a lot of shifts happening.
01:12:26.640 We saw JPMorgan, PIMCO, State Street all extract themselves from the Climate 100-plus pledge, which is basically financial institutions cracking down on companies and trying to push them into this ESG, these directives.
01:12:44.580 And so we just saw that happen this week.
01:12:46.840 And part of that is because they are afraid of the legislation and being hit with lawsuits.
01:12:53.580 In fact, BlackRock, which shifted from the U.S. being part of it to just Europe being part of it, within – they cited lawsuits, potential lawsuits as one of the concerns.
01:13:05.020 So this is, you know, coming from the New York Times, coming from the mainstream media, they are scared.
01:13:09.300 But it's not enough.
01:13:11.020 And, you know, that goes back to this new BlackRock voting initiative, proxy voting initiative, where they don't want to be the ones to take the blame and say, well, we're not pushing this.
01:13:21.900 You're voting for it.
01:13:23.180 And instead of, you know, going ahead and giving you the ultimate choice on how to vote, they're going to give you options.
01:13:31.540 But of their options, almost all of them have to do – I know this is going to shock you, Glenn – with climate or climate impact or environment or social – I know, it's a social responsibility.
01:13:42.440 So I could have Soviet communism, Chinese communism, or –
01:13:50.000 North Korean.
01:13:50.660 Or North Korean communism.
01:13:52.680 But I can choose.
01:13:53.800 I can choose.
01:13:54.080 You get a pick.
01:13:54.680 Got it.
01:13:55.120 All right.
01:13:55.920 Wow.
01:13:56.300 That's quite a choice.
01:13:59.000 So go ahead.
01:14:00.860 I was going to say, and it's – the way they're doing it is obviously they've been paying attention to your program because they're trying to really manipulate you in one direction or another.
01:14:10.520 They have this one choice that's called the ISS, Catholic Faith-Based Policy.
01:14:17.280 Oh, my gosh.
01:14:17.540 So you're going, oh, okay, that's great.
01:14:19.260 That's going to be aligned potentially with my values and patriotic values.
01:14:23.100 But what they say is, quote, that it's aligned with social responsibility and, quote, the active ownership and investment philosophies of – I'm sorry – broadly consistent with the objectives of socially responsible shareholders as well as the teachings of Catholicism and Christianity.
01:14:39.940 And then they talk about, you know, social, environmental impacts.
01:14:44.000 Social justice.
01:14:45.060 Yeah, that they're going along with, you know, the social and environmental philosophies of Catholic-based teaching.
01:14:51.600 Yeah.
01:14:51.800 I mean, they're really trying to make sure that you don't read this and say, oh, this is going to be aligned with my values.
01:14:58.500 But they're just pushing this in a different way to manipulate you.
01:15:01.420 So now they can say that you're the one that voted for this.
01:15:04.780 Unbelievable.
01:15:05.660 So damn evil.
01:15:07.720 It is.
01:15:08.420 I'm looking at all of the things that are happening, like the farmers.
01:15:13.080 You know, that's kind of calmed down now over in Europe because the politicians said, you know what?
01:15:18.960 You're right.
01:15:20.160 You're right.
01:15:20.560 We're not going to push those things.
01:15:21.860 We're going to hold.
01:15:22.680 We're going to hold.
01:15:23.340 There's an election coming up this summer.
01:15:25.360 Yeah.
01:15:25.580 And after the election, we'll bring that back up.
01:15:27.740 But I think you're right.
01:15:28.620 And I think these farmers just might be dumb enough to think that they won, but they didn't win.
01:15:35.540 You cannot.
01:15:36.880 This is like, you know, any good war strategy.
01:15:40.880 You cannot let them regroup, fall back and regroup someplace else.
01:15:48.040 You must pursue them at some point because they're going to keep doing it over and over.
01:15:54.040 They'll just pop up someplace else or under a different name or another new way to manipulate the reality.
01:16:02.360 And you have to, if you don't pursue them, you have to start all over again.
01:16:06.380 Yes.
01:16:06.900 Well, the farmers have obviously been very brave and they have been leading the way.
01:16:11.640 And yeah, I think that they may have won the battle, but they haven't won the war.
01:16:16.640 There was an article that came out in the Financial Times this morning about here in the U.S.
01:16:21.760 about the amount of investment dollars that keeps increasing in terms of buying up farmland and that the average age of farmers here in the United States is 58.
01:16:31.620 I would imagine that there are similar demographics and issues going on around the world.
01:16:36.100 So, you know, they may be placating and saying, OK, we're going to drop this.
01:16:41.980 But we know through the fight against natural asset companies, you know, some of these other proposals that are coming to the table and things that they keep moving around that they're finding other ways to achieve their objectives.
01:16:53.580 I think the good news is, is that we are having an impact, whether it's the farmers, whether it's the listeners here using their voice.
01:17:02.060 But I know it seems exhausting, but you've got to devote some part of every week to advocacy because we're in a situation where you could, like you said, you cannot let up.
01:17:12.680 They're on the ropes.
01:17:13.460 But if you let them get that second win, they're going to come back and, you know, go back at you with some jabs and a right hook.
01:17:20.860 Carol Roth, thank you so much.
01:17:22.200 God bless.
01:17:23.080 We'll talk to you again soon.
01:17:24.440 Carol Roth, the author of You Will Own Nothing.
01:17:26.500 She also has her new newsletter out.
01:17:29.160 You can find it at carolroth.com slash news.
01:17:33.500 Back in just a second.
01:17:34.720 First, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
01:17:38.600 Israel is our historic and many ways spiritual allies.
01:17:43.800 We trace the roots of our faith to that land and those people that makes them our brothers and sisters.
01:17:51.500 Those brothers and sisters in the spirit have been caught up in a war that they didn't start.
01:17:57.980 It's been going on since Abraham.
01:18:01.420 Now, families are being torn apart.
01:18:04.760 Israel is having a tough go of it right now.
01:18:08.280 And that's why I have officially partnered with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
01:18:14.200 They are in the middle of it every day.
01:18:16.400 And I've watched these people over the years.
01:18:18.700 I've done several projects with them and helped them raise money before.
01:18:21.940 But I wanted to bring them to the forefront so you understand what they do.
01:18:26.240 They are distributing essentials like food and medicine and emergency supplies.
01:18:31.460 The need is great.
01:18:33.800 So would you go to supportifcj.org?
01:18:40.100 Supportifcj.org.
01:18:41.560 Your donation is urgently needed.
01:18:43.740 They're having a matching now, dollar for dollar.
01:18:45.840 So you'll double your investment in this group.
01:18:51.160 I want you to do your own homework.
01:18:52.660 Don't take my word for it.
01:18:53.960 I want you to go to their website and look at it.
01:18:57.280 Supportifcj.org.
01:18:58.700 That's supportifcj.org.
01:19:02.760 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:19:23.800 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.
01:19:25.500 There's a couple of things going on today.
01:19:27.480 Spanish conservatives have won the local election as socialism and the socialists retreat from there.
01:19:36.640 This is a very big deal in Spain.
01:19:40.380 Socialism is neat still in Spain.
01:19:44.220 Communism or fascism, eh, you know, this is not for everybody.
01:19:48.480 But the Spanish kind of think it's okay.
01:19:50.680 Um, we, uh, we also have, um, the WHO director.
01:19:59.760 He's very upset.
01:20:01.160 He says conspiracy theories are going to derail his global pandemic treaty.
01:20:06.100 Um, it's a pact with the future, uh, and it's mission critical case.
01:20:11.980 We have any, anything else that might pop its ugly head.
01:20:16.020 Uh, and what it does is it gives, uh, the WHO pretty much control over every nation state, uh, should they decide that there's a reason.
01:20:28.000 Um, and, uh, they'll just, you know, they'll take control.
01:20:31.420 Everything will be fine.
01:20:32.420 You know, they'll control the horizontal and the vertical.
01:20:35.320 Um, but, uh, don't worry.
01:20:37.000 Don't worry.
01:20:37.440 Everything's going to be good.
01:20:38.640 Everything's going to be good.
01:20:39.600 Uh, meanwhile, the Senate is trying to pass a bill, uh, now, or I should say it's being proposed.
01:20:46.560 There are some that are trying to pass it.
01:20:48.180 It says all treaties, all treaties, uh, must go through the Senate.
01:20:53.140 I don't know if you need a bill as much as the constitution, which states that clearly.
01:20:59.880 But, uh, we'll see.
01:21:03.580 Well, let's just kind of like our border where Joe Biden just needs the Republicans to pass this so he can shut the border down.
01:21:11.380 He's been wanting to do it the whole time and he can't.
01:21:13.860 Yeah.
01:21:14.100 And then now all of a sudden he's saying he may just do an executive order to shut the border down.
01:21:18.900 Oh, well, it's weird.
01:21:20.400 It's like, it's almost like he had that power the entire time.
01:21:23.440 That is weird.
01:21:23.940 Uh, Brockton high school in Brockton, Massachusetts, the largest public school in the state of Massachusetts, 3,500 students.
01:21:33.540 Apparently they're having a problem with student violence.
01:21:35.740 Now, what could have gone wrong here?
01:21:37.660 What do you think could have gone wrong with a public school losing control over the students?
01:21:45.540 Uh, they say they have experienced a disturbing increase in the incidents related to violence, security concerns, and substance abuse.
01:21:54.820 Huh?
01:21:56.020 Huh?
01:21:57.580 Uh, apparently many teachers broke down in tears, uh, at the level of school violence there.
01:22:04.040 Uh, gee, I mean, what, what's happening in our society that would cause a breakdown in the schools and loss of authority in schools?
01:22:12.540 So they are now asking for the National Guard to be put in the hallways of this school to bring it under control.
01:22:22.740 Uh, and, and I think this would be great.
01:22:26.680 What could possibly happen?
01:22:29.760 Vladimir loves this.
01:22:32.300 Uh, oh yeah, that's, uh, that's good.
01:22:34.600 That's good.
01:22:35.560 Um, that's good.
01:22:39.160 I don't think there's a, is there anything else to say on that, Stu, except that's good?
01:22:44.100 No, it seems, I can't wait to see how it all turns out.
01:22:46.940 Yeah, me too.
01:22:48.700 Secretary of State Antony Blinken, uh, has urged the State Department now to stop using problematic terms like manpower and, of course, that problematic mother and father words.
01:23:06.840 Uh, those are very problematic, but don't worry.
01:23:10.460 At any time, we could call out the National Guard and we'll get all this under control.
01:23:14.700 I feel better about that already.
01:23:16.560 By the way, Tucker Carlson, a live interview with me today at 1.30 Central, 2.30 Eastern.

01:26:02.780 All righty.
01:26:03.620 So, um, what's going to solve our problems here?
01:26:08.900 Well, let me give you this story.
01:26:11.220 Russian police investigate alleged LGBTQ propaganda at My Little Pony event.
01:26:17.980 Ah.
01:26:18.680 Yeah.
01:26:19.280 Finally.
01:26:20.060 Yeah.
01:26:20.900 Police in Moscow were called to investigate an event dedicated to the cartoon series My Little Pony.
01:26:27.760 Mm.
01:26:28.420 Mm-hmm.
01:26:29.460 Bronies?
01:26:30.600 Well, yeah.
01:26:31.560 Are these bronies?
01:26:32.000 Bronies were there, yeah.
01:26:33.060 Uh, the event, the Mi Amor convention, was shut down by organizers early on Saturday after officers arrived at the venue.
01:26:42.520 Police were unable to find any evidence of LGBTQ plus propaganda at the event, which was considered an illegal activity in Russia.
01:26:51.880 The police received a complaint complaining that our event promoted non-traditional relationships and related symbols, adult contents for minors, and general horror and darkness, event organizers wrote on the Russian social media.
01:27:07.480 Two police checks did not uphold these complaints.
01:27:10.780 My Little Pony.
01:27:11.780 My Little Pony is a toy line and media franchise developed by the company Hasbro.
01:27:18.640 The Moscow event was dedicated to the cartoon series, which focuses on the power of friendship and targeted to an audience under the age of 10.
01:27:27.280 Although the convention, although the convention catered to its many adult fans, the logo of the convention in the Russian capital was a pony with a mane styled in the colors of the Russian flag, not the rainbow.
01:27:40.200 My Little Pony has prompted anxiety in Russia as the count of the country's authorities cracked down on the local LGBTQ plus community with Russian movie database, changing the cartoon series rating to an adult only 18 plus in December, 2023.
01:28:01.200 In November, 2023, a Russian court declared the global LGBTQ plus movement, an extremist organization.
01:28:12.240 Since then, at least three people have been arrested and served time in prison for displaying rainbow colored items.
01:28:21.200 Because my understanding of the brony culture, and perhaps you can jump into this a little more deeply than I can.
01:28:28.660 But, like, it's been essentially adopted by some of the LGBTQQIA2 plus community.
01:28:35.920 Hey, stand in line. Noah's first in that line.
01:28:38.660 But, like, My Little Pony itself is just a cartoon for little girls, basically.
01:28:45.000 Or so they'd have you think.
01:28:46.320 I mean, maybe they have embraced this. They're like, hey, look, we're getting extra people buying our crap.
01:28:50.580 Like, let's do bread.
01:28:51.680 But generally speaking.
01:28:52.760 This is part of that LGBTQ propaganda. We must censor this show quickly.
01:28:57.640 I just feel like maybe, I don't, again, if, just because some other group is utilizing this material doesn't necessarily mean that's what the material is designed for.
01:29:11.240 Okay, so let me ask you.
01:29:13.360 Is this how you want to solve problems going forward?
01:29:19.960 As we look at, well, here, can we go to SOT1, I believe it is.
01:29:30.440 Yes.
01:29:31.140 Listen to this, SOT1.
01:29:33.240 We want to warn you that these videos are disturbing.
01:29:37.380 And store managers and employees tell us that this same man has been accused of doing the same thing at other antique shops in the area.
01:29:45.300 But employees here at Antique Gallery say he didn't buy or steal anything, but they're hoping he'll be caught.
01:29:52.680 Cameras capture this man in a kilt looking around an antique booth.
01:29:57.620 He grabs an item off a shelf.
01:30:00.300 He's then seen walking behind a birdcage.
01:30:03.500 He appears to put the item under his kilt before putting it back on a shelf.
01:30:08.200 Another camera shows a woman walking into a booth.
01:30:11.400 The man comes up to her, whispers in her ear, then leaves.
01:30:15.360 He appears to grab another item off the shelf and puts it under his kilt, once again, returning the item.
01:30:21.560 More cameras capture the man repeating the disturbing acts.
01:30:25.040 What did they do with those products?
01:30:28.100 They threw them away, mostly.
01:30:31.140 Mostly?
01:30:31.840 Golden hopes the man doesn't come back.
01:30:34.740 Yeah, so am I.
01:30:36.000 First of all, that wasn't a kilt.
01:30:38.420 That isn't a kilt.
01:30:39.700 That was a little schoolgirl dress.
01:30:42.260 Okay?
01:30:42.500 And he was inserting these items into orifices under the skirt.
01:30:51.300 Okay?
01:30:52.180 Now,
01:30:52.860 what do we do about that?
01:30:59.000 What's this caused by?
01:31:00.700 I think you just burn the store down.
01:31:02.240 If I'm the owner of that store, I'm just burning it to the ground after that incident.
01:31:05.520 I gotta tell you, it makes me not want to walk into any antique store again.
01:31:08.920 Or any other store.
01:31:10.160 Right.
01:31:10.580 People are weird.
01:31:11.600 Okay?
01:31:11.820 So, I believe that the news anchor there, KPRC, it's the NBC station in Houston, either has no concept of Scotland at all and doesn't have any idea that that's not a kilt.
01:31:32.540 Kilts look very, very specific.
01:31:35.060 That's a little schoolgirl dress.
01:31:37.500 Okay?
01:31:37.620 Is that what, I mean, when I think schoolgirl dress, I'm thinking like a plaid.
01:31:41.980 And that's plaid.
01:31:43.040 Was it plaid?
01:31:43.540 Yeah, it was black and white plaid.
01:31:46.860 Okay?
01:31:47.480 And see, those aren't folds.
01:31:49.040 Those are little waves of the skirt.
01:31:51.540 Okay?
01:31:52.240 That's a skirt.
01:31:53.280 That is a skirt.
01:31:54.520 Yeah, I wouldn't describe that as a kilt.
01:31:56.380 In Texas, you know, a guy wearing a kilt kind of stands out.
01:32:02.940 Now, maybe in New York.
01:32:04.620 Definitely in Scotland, no.
01:32:06.600 No.
01:32:07.020 Okay?
01:32:07.820 But a kilt is different than a skirt.
01:32:11.760 We are now embracing guys and turning a blind eye to guys who are in skirts.
01:32:20.040 That's okay.
01:32:21.200 That's all right.
01:32:22.220 That's okay.
01:32:23.420 Why?
01:32:24.720 Because your sexual perversion is okay.
01:32:27.680 It's okay.
01:32:28.760 I want to dress like a little schoolgirl, and I'm a 45-year-old bald man.
01:32:33.640 Okay, come on in.
01:32:35.700 We've lost all shame, and we've lost all perspective on right and wrong.
01:32:44.520 Our whole society has been perverted.
01:32:47.560 Now, the reason why I bring this up here is because Vladimir Putin would use the government
01:32:54.480 and muscle to make sure none of that's going on.
01:32:58.720 I don't want stormtroopers in the streets.
01:33:00.800 Now, this guy, I would like him to be arrested if, you know, he is found.
01:33:06.860 The story ends with him, the store owner, what do you hope happens to him?
01:33:10.800 I just hope he doesn't come back.
01:33:12.780 What?
01:33:13.560 No, I would like the guy to go to jail or at least pay some fine.
01:33:17.640 I don't know what law he's breaking by sticking things up his butt and putting them back on
01:33:22.760 the shelf, but there's got to be something.
01:33:24.720 I'm sure there is.
01:33:25.960 You're not allowed to do that.
01:33:26.880 Someday, this society, if we remain free, someday there will be an old law on the books that
01:33:33.760 was put in around 2025, and it was don't insert things into your butt and put it back on the
01:33:41.020 shelf, and people will look at that and go, those were crazy days, like no spitting while
01:33:47.100 tying your horse to the saloon.
01:33:49.500 It'll look like that.
01:33:50.400 It'll date us because this is when America lost her mind.
01:33:53.980 I don't want goon squads.
01:33:59.420 I don't want what's in Russia.
01:34:02.560 I've never wanted that.
01:34:04.980 But if you don't have any right or wrong in your society, and your society, the major organs
01:34:15.720 of it, the media, the news media, film industry, and your government.
01:34:23.980 Does not have some sort of moral lines there on what's right and wrong.
01:34:33.640 If your educational system is saying, hey, there's no such thing as right and wrong, you
01:34:40.180 cannot have a civilization.
01:34:42.800 This is what happens.
01:34:44.100 Now, I never thought we would have to have a law against guys dressing up as little school
01:34:53.400 girls and putting items off the shelf into their orifice, and then putting them back on
01:34:59.860 the shelf.
01:35:00.240 I never thought we would have that problem.
01:35:03.240 So why are we having that now?
01:35:06.520 What's changed now?
01:35:14.100 Well, there's a few things that have changed.
01:35:20.960 I think the biggest thing is shame has been turned into fame.
01:35:27.700 We have lost our moral compass.
01:35:32.100 We don't even have a compass anymore.
01:35:34.540 We don't know what direction.
01:35:35.920 We're in the woods.
01:35:36.800 We have no direction where we're headed.
01:35:39.920 Could be a happy place.
01:35:41.820 Could be a cliff.
01:35:43.140 My bet is the cliff is just ahead.
01:35:46.440 But we have no moral compass to show us the difference of right and wrong, north and south,
01:35:54.240 up and down.
01:35:57.040 Then we've lost all of the institutions that would enforce actual laws, not Catholic laws
01:36:09.260 or Presbyterian laws or Mormon laws or any of that.
01:36:12.480 Actual, right and wrong, well thought out, well crafted laws.
01:36:19.960 Don't steal.
01:36:22.040 Don't kill.
01:36:24.540 Don't lie.
01:36:27.760 All of our laws are based on Moses and his Ten Commandments.
01:36:34.960 It's all based on Judeo-Christian theology.
01:36:41.880 It's not a theological regime.
01:36:45.760 I don't want a theological regime.
01:36:48.880 But the only way freedom works, you only have two choices.
01:36:53.940 This ends two ways.
01:36:56.500 You restore personal responsibility.
01:36:59.760 And you empower in the private sector only.
01:37:06.760 You build up and empower those organizations and those churches that are teaching something
01:37:17.600 that has value and makes people a better person.
01:37:23.880 Something that you're striving to be better.
01:37:27.820 You're striving to be more noble.
01:37:30.160 We're not striving to be more noble.
01:37:32.340 We're now seeing who can be more outrageous than the guy in the little schoolgirl skirt stuffing
01:37:37.660 stuff up his butt.
01:37:38.760 And believe me, within a month, maybe within an hour, we'll find that person.
01:37:47.040 Because somebody will accept that as a challenge.
01:37:50.000 There is no low that is low enough.
01:37:56.220 We've stopped looking up.
01:37:59.340 We first just gaze at ourselves like narcissists in the mirror.
01:38:05.260 It's just us.
01:38:07.360 It's me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
01:38:10.380 And then when we see people getting popular because they do awful things,
01:38:15.100 and we're driven to make it more about us,
01:38:18.640 well, I can do that.
01:38:19.620 Or I can even do worse.
01:38:21.020 You either restore personal responsibility, and the best way, our founders said,
01:38:31.060 is through churches.
01:38:34.520 Because churches, when done correctly in the Judeo-Christian world,
01:38:43.120 churches teach people you answer to God.
01:38:47.520 I do this job, I live a clean life, I pay my taxes,
01:38:55.200 not because I'm afraid of the government.
01:39:00.000 I do it because, in a different sense of the word fear, I fear God.
01:39:08.680 I want to be on His side.
01:39:10.800 So I comply to His rules, which also kind of are reflected in government laws.
01:39:21.300 But, see, we're not making laws anymore.
01:39:24.380 Now we have the administration making up new guidelines,
01:39:29.840 making up new rules.
01:39:32.940 They're not laws.
01:39:34.680 They're new rules, new guidelines.
01:39:39.740 And those don't reflect anything, anything,
01:39:44.300 that the vast majority of people agree with.
01:39:51.160 And they're only making our country worse.
01:39:54.020 And by increasing the power of one man or the administration,
01:40:01.040 you have a greater chance of becoming exactly what Vladimir Putin did.
01:40:09.100 One way or another.
01:40:10.520 You say you don't want religion.
01:40:12.160 Well, I've got news for you.
01:40:13.880 Wokeism is a religion.
01:40:15.500 I know, because I wouldn't be played by the rules,
01:40:20.120 so I've been excommunicated in all the cool places.
01:40:24.680 It's a religion.
01:40:27.540 America is not a place where we have a state religion,
01:40:32.480 be it wokeism or Christianity.
01:40:38.260 We worship God.
01:40:40.000 And in this country, that is a Judeo-Christian God.
01:40:45.980 All of our laws and our whole system is built upon that.
01:40:50.380 That's not bigoted.
01:40:52.440 That helps people become more Christ-like.
01:40:55.920 And if you're really Christ-like, you're not accusing people.
01:40:59.820 You are helping and loving people.
01:41:04.600 Unless you live out in the sticks,
01:41:06.420 it's not really the best idea to practice training with your guns
01:41:09.440 out in the backyard, you know.
01:41:11.900 But you can use the Berna launcher.
01:41:14.680 And that's good,
01:41:15.460 because not every self-defense situation can you find in the handgun.
01:41:21.860 You know, there are different situations.
01:41:23.920 And especially now, you're driving down the street,
01:41:26.720 and there is, you know, all of a sudden you're surrounded by a mob.
01:41:30.740 What are you going to do?
01:41:31.700 You're going to shoot?
01:41:33.000 Oh, that'll go well for you.
01:41:34.400 Now, would I shoot tear gas at that mob?
01:41:40.520 Yeah, yeah, I would.
01:41:41.920 I probably would.
01:41:43.300 That way, I can go away, and nobody's dead.
01:41:46.240 How's that?
01:41:47.460 Berna is that system.
01:41:49.580 It looks just like a gun.
01:41:51.420 But once that bullet leaves your gun,
01:41:53.800 you can't take it back.
01:41:54.940 With Berna, your safety comes at a much lower price.
01:41:58.220 And it's made right here in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
01:42:00.760 And everybody over 18 can use them.
01:42:03.220 There's no license.
01:42:04.420 There's no restrictions.
01:42:06.100 Cops are using this.

01:42:21.660 Oh, my gosh.
01:42:31.820 You know, I was reading that story from the New York Times
01:42:34.780 about how people are just tired of this on the left.
01:42:38.080 Let me just give you a couple of highlights
01:42:40.600 from the sound of yesterday.
01:42:45.980 Let's see.
01:42:46.660 How about cup two, please.
01:42:48.580 Elizabeth Warren.
01:42:50.640 Why do you think that people,
01:42:53.260 all these polls show like a lot of voters
01:42:55.100 look back on the Trump years
01:42:56.580 and they think,
01:42:57.920 they didn't like a lot about it,
01:42:58.940 but they think the economy was good
01:43:00.460 in the Trump years.
01:43:01.820 And I know that like we weren't,
01:43:02.900 well, at the end, clearly.
01:43:04.460 And then at the end when COVID happened
01:43:07.240 and they figure, oh, well,
01:43:09.560 COVID happened all around the world.
01:43:10.840 And so, of course, the economy went.
01:43:12.580 Are you tired of the answer, orange man?
01:43:17.540 Tired?
01:43:18.740 How about this one?
01:43:19.620 Here's Pelosi.
01:43:20.780 Listen to this.
01:43:21.660 Conspiracy theory.
01:43:22.980 Misinformation.
01:43:24.000 Putin is probably the richest person in the world.
01:43:27.780 Probably the richest person in the world.
01:43:30.360 Forget all these ratings that people have.
01:43:32.360 The richest person in the world.
01:43:34.340 He's also the most,
01:43:36.580 well, not the most evil,
01:43:38.060 stiff competition for that honor,
01:43:39.700 but nonetheless among the top three or four
01:43:44.360 most evil people in the world.
01:43:47.280 What does he have on Donald Trump
01:43:49.380 that he'd have to constantly be catering to Putin?
01:43:53.380 What do you think?
01:43:54.040 We're all wondering this question, Speaker.
01:43:55.480 This is a conspiracy theory now.
01:43:58.080 Again, saying that Trump is financially
01:44:00.960 being blackmailed by Putin
01:44:04.400 or Putin is blackmailing Trump.
01:44:06.600 What is it?
01:44:08.020 Not even financially,
01:44:09.420 just some sort of information.
01:44:11.120 Some information.
01:44:11.820 This goes back to the pee tape type stuff, right?
01:44:14.020 Correct.
01:44:14.240 Like, he's got something on him.
01:44:15.880 Of course, it doesn't explain
01:44:17.300 why Trump's policies while in office
01:44:19.780 were much more stringent on Russia
01:44:21.560 than either the predecessor,
01:44:23.340 either predecessor, really,
01:44:25.080 of his presidency.
01:44:26.660 And one more.
01:44:27.240 It's 13 seconds.
01:44:28.120 Do I have time?
01:44:28.980 Cut four.
01:44:30.100 Do you think that Ukraine
01:44:31.300 can survive a year
01:44:32.840 this year
01:44:34.340 on the battlefield
01:44:36.640 without American aid?
01:44:38.260 Kamala.
01:44:39.160 Ukraine needs our support
01:44:40.300 and we must give it.
01:44:42.580 We must give it.
01:44:44.280 I don't know.
01:44:45.380 Crisis after crisis.
01:44:47.200 Blame game.
01:44:48.700 Who else is sick of it?
01:44:50.240 What do you say
01:44:50.720 we don't play it anymore?
01:44:52.260 No.
01:44:52.740 I know.
01:44:55.200 She likes school buses.
01:44:56.360 Yellow school buses.
01:44:57.700 Back in a minute.
01:45:01.160 Glenn Beck.
01:45:05.240 What if I told you
01:45:06.520 that it's not only possible
01:45:08.340 to get rid of that pain
01:45:09.380 you've been carrying around
01:45:10.160 for so long,
01:45:10.720 but you could actually
01:45:11.380 potentially go back
01:45:12.360 to feeling the way you used to?
01:45:14.160 Remember those days?
01:45:15.400 Back when you didn't have
01:45:16.160 to check with your body
01:45:17.060 before everything that you did
01:45:18.380 and you're like,
01:45:18.900 I don't know.
01:45:19.420 Is it worth it
01:45:20.300 if I do this and tomorrow?
01:45:22.740 If you're suffering from pain
01:45:24.480 all the time,
01:45:25.120 I was there with you.
01:45:26.080 My hands were in a world of pain
01:45:27.880 every day.
01:45:30.040 I started taking Relief Factor
01:45:31.560 and found relief there
01:45:32.420 that I never thought I would.
01:45:34.280 It's a daily supplement
01:45:35.440 that helps your body
01:45:36.320 fight pain
01:45:37.000 by fighting inflammation.
01:45:38.360 Now, it hasn't taken away.
01:45:39.300 It has taken away
01:45:40.220 all the daily pain,
01:45:41.620 but once in a while
01:45:42.420 I'll still get pain.
01:45:43.820 It's not a miracle,
01:45:45.740 although for me
01:45:46.640 it has been a miracle
01:45:47.920 because I was in constant pain.

01:46:11.980 Tucker Carlson's

01:46:14.760 is today,
01:46:15.680 live on Blaze TV.

01:46:37.260 Just a couple of hours
01:46:38.400 I'm doing a live interview.
01:46:40.400 I just think there's
01:46:40.960 something different
01:46:41.540 about live.
01:46:42.420 And I asked Tucker Carlson
01:46:46.300 when he was over in Russia,
01:46:47.300 when you get back,
01:46:49.220 will you sit down?
01:46:50.200 Because there's all kinds
01:46:51.080 of stuff being said
01:46:51.960 about you
01:46:52.520 and this interview
01:46:53.340 and everything else.
01:46:54.960 And I said,
01:46:56.520 would you do an interview
01:46:57.960 with me?
01:46:58.500 And so his first interview
01:46:59.700 on his return from Russia
01:47:00.900 is today
01:47:03.300 at 2.30 Eastern time.
01:47:05.400 And I don't want you
01:47:08.820 to miss it.
01:47:09.320 If you are a Blaze TV subscriber,
01:47:11.980 you're getting it today,
01:47:13.560 live.
01:47:14.060 That's the only way
01:47:14.660 you can watch it live
01:47:15.700 is on Blaze TV.
01:47:17.580 It's a big deal.
01:47:18.840 Yeah, it is.
01:47:19.640 This is, I mean,
01:47:20.240 because he's been the center
01:47:22.500 of the conversation
01:47:23.520 for multiple weeks
01:47:24.460 because of this interview.
01:47:25.560 Oh, yeah.
01:47:25.960 And yet has not really
01:47:27.400 gone into depth on it.
01:47:28.680 He said a couple of comments.
01:47:30.040 He had, I guess,
01:47:30.600 a speech maybe after this
01:47:32.200 where he addressed some of it.
01:47:33.640 Um, but there's been
01:47:35.360 a lot of criticism
01:47:35.920 from the mainstream media
01:47:37.120 and a lot of criticism
01:47:37.840 even from the right
01:47:38.960 on some of the aspects
01:47:40.340 of this trip.
01:47:42.300 And I would love to hear
01:47:43.680 what, you know,
01:47:44.700 how he reacts to that.
01:47:45.620 Well, especially his,
01:47:46.060 his subway station
01:47:47.820 and grocery store thing,
01:47:49.160 I think was really confusing.
01:47:50.700 I don't know what he meant
01:47:51.720 by that,
01:47:52.200 but I'm going to ask him.
01:47:52.940 I'm going to ask him today.
01:47:53.680 Oh, yeah.
01:47:54.040 I mean, because I think
01:47:54.700 actually his, um,
01:47:57.400 interview with Putin,
01:47:58.300 I think was relatively
01:47:59.660 well received.
01:48:01.120 You know, that's my perception
01:48:02.300 of it.
01:48:02.620 And that, like,
01:48:03.580 he was kind of criticized
01:48:04.500 for letting him go on
01:48:05.680 too long about the history.
01:48:07.280 But I mean, you know,
01:48:08.780 he didn't,
01:48:09.220 it was a two hour interview.
01:48:10.580 It didn't seem like
01:48:11.160 he was trying to,
01:48:11.800 to filibuster.
01:48:13.180 Right.
01:48:13.540 So I, I don't know
01:48:14.820 why it's bad to hear
01:48:16.140 more words from Putin
01:48:17.320 on this.
01:48:17.740 I mean, you could see.
01:48:18.340 It was just boring.
01:48:18.960 Skip that part
01:48:19.440 if you don't like it.
01:48:20.220 I thought it was interesting.
01:48:21.640 I thought his.
01:48:22.820 Yeah, he's all over the board
01:48:23.720 and he's not accurate
01:48:24.500 on a lot of it.
01:48:25.120 But his reasoning
01:48:25.960 for it is like,
01:48:28.280 I mean, Tucker said it.
01:48:29.340 So are you saying
01:48:30.300 that everybody's
01:48:31.960 ancestral
01:48:32.760 land
01:48:35.860 should be returned?
01:48:37.160 Of course,
01:48:37.560 the question you always
01:48:38.120 have to ask with this
01:48:38.680 is at what point,
01:48:40.200 like,
01:48:40.500 go back in history
01:48:41.820 far enough,
01:48:42.480 somebody else is living
01:48:43.340 on this property.
01:48:44.720 Always.
01:48:44.940 What point do you pick
01:48:46.980 for your ancestral lands?
01:48:48.780 It's always an interesting
01:48:49.660 question with these guys.
01:48:50.920 But I mean, like his,
01:48:51.640 he got, I think,
01:48:52.340 widespread praise for him
01:48:54.280 into his face
01:48:55.660 asking about the
01:48:56.200 Wall Street Journal
01:48:56.760 reporter and saying
01:48:58.200 he should return him
01:48:59.460 to America right now,
01:49:00.500 release him to my custody
01:49:01.520 right now.
01:49:02.860 Tucker received
01:49:03.480 widespread praise
01:49:04.420 for his questioning
01:49:05.740 of that.
01:49:06.980 Yeah, I mean,
01:49:07.380 this guy's a guy
01:49:07.960 who literally murdered
01:49:10.060 his biggest political
01:49:11.140 opponent a few days later.
01:49:12.980 Yeah.
01:49:13.120 This is,
01:49:13.840 that's a ballsy thing to do.
01:49:15.240 How dare you say that?
01:49:16.360 I mean,
01:49:16.900 quite,
01:49:17.480 allegedly,
01:49:18.100 I'm sorry.
01:49:18.580 I forgot to throw it
01:49:19.380 allegedly.
01:49:19.820 Sorry, Vlad.
01:49:20.980 I mean,
01:49:21.440 usually he throws people
01:49:22.680 off the roof.
01:49:23.420 This one,
01:49:23.760 he just let wander
01:49:24.620 in the middle of the snow
01:49:25.560 in the Arctic Circle
01:49:26.440 for a while.
01:49:27.140 Yeah, no big deal.
01:49:27.980 So.
01:49:28.700 So you have,
01:49:29.560 you have that going on.
01:49:30.960 I think that's going to be
01:49:31.740 an interesting part of this.
01:49:34.400 I'm interested to see
01:49:35.540 if he saw
01:49:36.520 the number of times
01:49:38.460 that he was trying,
01:49:39.740 you know,
01:49:39.900 he's such a KGB agent.
01:49:41.920 And was he,
01:49:43.120 prepared for things like,
01:49:45.400 look,
01:49:45.600 I know you studied history.
01:49:47.440 There were several things
01:49:48.780 that Putin said
01:49:49.500 all the way along
01:49:50.320 where he was saying,
01:49:51.360 I know everything
01:49:52.640 there is about you.
01:49:55.440 And was that unsettling?
01:49:57.500 What,
01:49:57.800 what was that?
01:49:59.840 Even if he noticed it,
01:50:01.220 I'm sure he did.
01:50:02.540 But,
01:50:03.100 I mean,
01:50:03.900 and I think the,
01:50:04.760 the grocery store
01:50:05.980 and subway stuff
01:50:06.780 is interesting as well.
01:50:07.900 Oh, big time.
01:50:08.460 You know,
01:50:08.920 I think the media
01:50:09.860 is trying to portray
01:50:10.540 Tucker Carlson
01:50:11.300 as this guy
01:50:11.920 who got duped
01:50:12.880 by Vladimir Putin
01:50:13.920 into,
01:50:14.920 wow,
01:50:15.060 he didn't even know
01:50:15.880 that Joseph Stalin
01:50:16.900 actually built these subways
01:50:18.480 as,
01:50:19.420 designed,
01:50:20.280 as a propaganda effort
01:50:22.580 for visitors,
01:50:23.520 right?
01:50:23.740 Correct.
01:50:24.320 And by him saying this,
01:50:26.880 is he Walter Durante?
01:50:29.080 Right.
01:50:29.460 And that's,
01:50:30.000 that's the question,
01:50:30.780 right?
01:50:30.900 I'm going to ask him that.
01:50:32.200 That'll be really interesting
01:50:33.240 because,
01:50:33.860 look,
01:50:34.760 you can say you disagree
01:50:35.760 with Tucker Carlson,
01:50:36.560 but it's not like
01:50:37.060 he doesn't know this stuff.
01:50:38.520 He's very smart.
01:50:40.180 He knows this history.
01:50:42.200 So,
01:50:42.520 is he making a point here?
01:50:44.500 Is he,
01:50:45.280 you know,
01:50:45.460 what is his point?
01:50:47.320 You know,
01:50:47.820 that's going to be really interesting
01:50:48.940 to hear him go through today.
01:50:50.080 I,
01:50:50.220 I can't wait to watch this.
01:50:51.480 I mean,
01:50:51.640 because look,
01:50:52.280 you could say a lot of things
01:50:53.220 about Tucker Carlson.
01:50:53.960 You can,
01:50:54.200 I disagree with him
01:50:55.060 on,
01:50:55.300 on some of the stuff,
01:50:56.080 but when it comes to
01:50:57.800 some of the foreign policy
01:50:58.960 stuff that he,
01:51:00.200 I'm not sure where he said,
01:51:02.000 that's what I want to find out.
01:51:03.260 I'm not sure where he stands
01:51:05.480 on things like this.
01:51:07.180 I mean,
01:51:07.480 my stance on,
01:51:09.100 on the Russia,
01:51:10.760 Ukraine thing,
01:51:12.600 Russia is bad.
01:51:13.620 Okay.
01:51:14.400 Yeah.
01:51:14.860 Run by killers.
01:51:16.360 Okay.
01:51:17.300 Um,
01:51:18.260 they,
01:51:19.600 for whatever excuse they have,
01:51:21.560 that was a sovereign state.
01:51:23.280 They violated it.
01:51:24.540 Now let's look at player number two
01:51:27.260 because,
01:51:27.980 because the world is asking
01:51:29.180 everybody to get involved.
01:51:30.760 Okay.
01:51:31.720 Well,
01:51:31.960 I'm not on Russia's side too.
01:51:34.540 I'm not on Ukraine side.
01:51:36.300 I was on the people's side,
01:51:37.840 but I think they've been all killed,
01:51:39.540 uh,
01:51:40.600 since,
01:51:41.240 you know,
01:51:41.500 since we've been going on.
01:51:43.160 Um,
01:51:43.640 I don't trust the government over there.
01:51:45.840 I don't think their president
01:51:47.280 is a good guy.
01:51:48.480 I,
01:51:49.120 I think it is a cash machine.
01:51:51.500 I don't trust they,
01:51:53.100 they were actually funding Nazis
01:51:56.100 on the border.
01:51:57.560 No,
01:51:58.140 I'm not for them either.
01:51:59.740 And then you have the third one,
01:52:01.960 the government of the United States.
01:52:04.680 I don't trust them.
01:52:06.400 I don't trust that this is re that
01:52:08.540 they're really in there to be the
01:52:09.920 good guy and make sure the good guys.
01:52:11.820 I don't believe that at all.
01:52:14.460 I don't know what game is being
01:52:16.580 played,
01:52:16.960 but I don't want to be involved
01:52:18.220 because I don't trust any of the
01:52:20.600 players at the table.
01:52:21.540 and I'm not going to throw my money
01:52:23.380 in on the table
01:52:24.360 betting on one of those guys
01:52:26.360 because I don't want any of them
01:52:27.520 to win.
01:52:29.120 Yeah.
01:52:29.660 And I'm wondering,
01:52:31.240 has he picked
01:52:32.520 and where,
01:52:34.000 what is his philosophy
01:52:36.940 on this?
01:52:38.040 What is his philosophy
01:52:39.060 on Putin
01:52:40.160 and,
01:52:41.400 and authoritarianism
01:52:43.200 compared to,
01:52:44.140 you know,
01:52:44.800 one of the things
01:52:45.620 when he's talking about the,
01:52:46.760 the,
01:52:48.520 you know,
01:52:51.240 the subways
01:52:51.860 and everything else.
01:52:52.940 Yeah,
01:52:53.200 I'd like that,
01:52:54.520 but not at the cost
01:52:55.920 of gulags.
01:52:57.420 Well,
01:52:57.740 certainly not.
01:52:58.860 But like,
01:52:59.800 I would be surprised
01:53:01.600 and maybe he'll get into this,
01:53:02.580 but I would be surprised
01:53:03.500 if Tucker Carlson's
01:53:04.780 philosophy
01:53:05.980 has evolved
01:53:07.540 to a place
01:53:08.320 where he believes
01:53:09.380 the centralized government
01:53:11.480 taking more
01:53:12.480 American tax dollars
01:53:13.920 to build beautiful subways
01:53:15.600 is the way he thinks
01:53:16.700 things should go.
01:53:17.560 I don't think that's what
01:53:18.500 he believes at all.
01:53:19.660 No.
01:53:20.100 So like,
01:53:20.860 I can understand saying,
01:53:22.240 or some sort of a dictator
01:53:23.280 that will just take care
01:53:24.240 of everything.
01:53:24.780 Right,
01:53:25.080 right.
01:53:25.300 Maybe he is.
01:53:26.000 Certainly not.
01:53:26.360 I don't think so.
01:53:27.020 I don't think so.
01:53:27.780 And it's like,
01:53:28.740 I,
01:53:29.200 I relate to,
01:53:31.420 I mean,
01:53:31.780 Glenn,
01:53:32.080 we went into these subways
01:53:33.740 every day
01:53:34.560 when we worked
01:53:35.120 in New York City.
01:53:36.040 We were in them
01:53:36.480 all the time.
01:53:37.340 I once sat
01:53:39.200 in a subway
01:53:39.820 that was stopped
01:53:41.360 at a station
01:53:42.020 and when they stop
01:53:43.320 at a station
01:53:43.700 the doors remain open
01:53:44.900 because someone
01:53:45.640 might want to get on.
01:53:46.880 Well,
01:53:47.180 as I sat there
01:53:48.140 I watched
01:53:48.900 a bag of trash
01:53:50.660 move.
01:53:53.920 I watched it
01:53:55.400 move.
01:53:56.680 Hey,
01:53:56.820 was it a kid
01:53:57.680 or was it a rat?
01:53:58.680 It was not a rat,
01:54:00.580 Glenn.
01:54:01.440 A family,
01:54:03.360 an extended family
01:54:05.040 all gathering together
01:54:06.520 for Thanksgiving
01:54:07.220 inside a trash bag
01:54:08.640 that was rolling
01:54:09.740 across the platform
01:54:11.460 toward the open door.
01:54:15.040 I watched this happen.
01:54:17.420 It was terrifying.
01:54:18.680 Living in New York
01:54:19.540 is just a different experience.
01:54:21.360 Right.
01:54:21.860 And so what I'd like
01:54:22.740 to see,
01:54:23.300 back in the good days.
01:54:24.160 Would I like to see
01:54:25.280 a cleaner subway system
01:54:26.820 in New York?
01:54:27.940 Sure.
01:54:29.260 But of course,
01:54:30.120 you know,
01:54:30.340 you go outside of Moscow
01:54:31.800 to other places.
01:54:32.720 You're not seeing this.
01:54:33.580 The cost of living.
01:54:35.100 He knows all this.
01:54:35.920 He knows what he saw.
01:54:38.320 He saw a propaganda show.
01:54:39.960 This is what they provide.
01:54:42.080 And so the question is,
01:54:43.200 what's the point
01:54:43.900 he's making there?
01:54:44.820 And how does he
01:54:45.860 actually internalize this?
01:54:46.840 Because I don't buy it all
01:54:48.260 that like,
01:54:48.720 he was just duped.
01:54:50.660 He just believes
01:54:52.140 every grocery store
01:54:53.640 in Russia is perfect.
01:54:55.160 I don't believe
01:54:55.920 he thinks that.
01:54:56.580 And I'll be fascinated
01:54:57.400 to hear his explanation on it.
01:54:58.540 So that happens
01:54:59.580 at 2.30 this afternoon.
01:55:01.400 That's Eastern time.
01:55:03.480 1.30 Central.
01:55:05.620 12.30 Mountain.
01:55:07.300 11.30 Pacific.
01:55:09.020 And if you're in Alaska
01:55:10.100 or Aleutian time,
01:55:11.320 you're on your own.
01:55:12.200 I have no idea.
01:55:13.020 I don't know.
01:55:13.460 I have no idea.
01:55:13.980 It's like 2.15
01:55:15.140 in the morning.
01:55:16.320 I just think things happen
01:55:17.280 when they happen
01:55:17.900 in those places.
01:55:18.380 They really do.
01:55:19.200 You know,
01:55:19.480 you don't know.
01:55:20.240 Aloha.
01:55:21.260 So anyway,
01:55:22.120 but you're going to get it first.
01:55:24.140 It will only be seen
01:55:25.280 on Blaze TV
01:55:25.940 for subscribers.
01:55:27.100 It will come out later.
01:55:28.680 But I wanted to do this
01:55:30.220 without commercials
01:55:31.220 and just raw
01:55:33.120 the way we tape these
01:55:34.420 with no interruption.
01:55:36.300 We never edit
01:55:37.760 any of our podcasts.
01:55:40.120 So we're just going to do
01:55:41.780 this one live
01:55:42.660 because I,
01:55:43.200 it just will,
01:55:44.580 I think for both of us,
01:55:46.460 it will key us up
01:55:48.120 just a little bit more
01:55:49.260 and be very careful
01:55:51.840 with everything that we say,
01:55:53.240 which I think is a good thing.
01:55:55.600 So you can watch this today.

01:58:10.800 This is the
01:58:11.800 Glenn Beck Program.
01:58:12.800 So yesterday,
01:58:29.640 we were talking about
01:58:31.300 the election on the
01:58:32.560 Texas Court of
01:58:33.420 Criminal Appeals.
01:58:34.540 If the right people
01:58:35.960 aren't elected there,
01:58:37.580 they will keep the
01:58:39.500 ruling that
01:58:41.740 the AG
01:58:44.520 cannot
01:58:45.160 investigate
01:58:46.560 any kind of
01:58:47.980 voter fraud.
01:58:49.720 Can't
01:58:50.280 bring it up in trial,
01:58:52.120 can't prosecute,
01:58:53.340 can't investigate,
01:58:54.320 nothing.
01:58:55.140 We lose Texas
01:58:56.340 within four years
01:58:57.500 if we don't
01:58:59.120 get some new
01:59:00.000 people on this
01:59:00.880 because they don't
01:59:01.520 answer the Supreme
01:59:02.260 Court or anybody else.
01:59:03.180 This is the highest
01:59:04.040 of the land
01:59:04.840 for this issue.
01:59:05.540 So it's David
01:59:07.160 Schneck,
01:59:08.240 Gina Parker,
01:59:09.660 and Lee Finley
01:59:10.720 that Texans
01:59:12.040 should vote for
01:59:12.980 and nobody's
01:59:15.200 going to remember
01:59:15.700 that.
01:59:16.040 You're going to be
01:59:16.320 like,
01:59:16.560 oh,
01:59:16.680 which one was it
01:59:17.560 again?
01:59:17.940 You're not going
01:59:18.240 to remember.
01:59:18.700 So I wanted to
01:59:19.880 make like a catchy
01:59:20.740 little jingle
01:59:21.640 and because I don't
01:59:23.680 want to actually do
01:59:24.420 anything,
01:59:24.800 just had AI do it
01:59:26.420 and it's pretty bad
01:59:28.160 but maybe it's bad
01:59:31.820 enough to remember.
01:59:32.880 I'm not sure.
01:59:33.540 You just type in,
01:59:34.340 write me a song
01:59:35.220 about these names.
01:59:36.800 And this particular,
01:59:38.200 you know,
01:59:38.480 the criminal court,
01:59:39.780 you know,
01:59:41.500 for Texas.
01:59:42.660 So it's a little
01:59:43.260 country?
01:59:44.300 Yeah,
01:59:44.400 a little Americana.
01:59:45.420 Here it is.
01:59:47.220 David Schneck,
01:59:48.360 Gina Parker,
01:59:49.640 we've been
01:59:50.040 names to remember
01:59:51.260 champions so clearly.
01:59:54.740 For justice,
01:59:56.160 for Texas,
01:59:56.840 their pledge resounds
01:59:58.320 in the Court of
01:59:59.340 Criminal Appeals.
02:00:00.480 They're on,
02:00:01.100 on or about.
02:00:03.080 Schneck Parker,
02:00:04.380 the elite,
02:00:05.220 hear the call.
02:00:07.100 Yeah.
02:00:07.560 For Texas,
02:00:08.680 for justice,
02:00:09.780 they stand tall.
02:00:10.900 Yeah,
02:00:11.100 they do.
02:00:11.500 See?
02:00:11.980 The election,
02:00:13.060 integrity,
02:00:14.140 they'll defend.
02:00:16.280 On Schneck Parker,
02:00:17.680 Finley,
02:00:18.420 we depend.
02:00:19.740 Yeah.
02:00:20.560 Schneck,
02:00:21.780 Parker,
02:00:22.460 and Finley,
02:00:23.240 we depend.
02:00:23.780 I'm not going to say
02:00:25.060 that's a good song,
02:00:26.340 but like the fact
02:00:27.840 that two sentences
02:00:29.460 typed in
02:00:30.620 created that
02:00:32.500 is just
02:00:33.200 insane.
02:00:33.740 Mind boggling.
02:00:34.660 Insane.
02:00:34.840 I worked almost
02:00:35.600 45 seconds.
02:00:38.040 The hardest part of that
02:00:39.680 was opening up
02:00:40.820 the laptop.
02:00:41.460 Right.
02:00:41.820 Yeah.
02:00:42.580 Now,
02:00:42.960 again,
02:00:43.580 it's not a good song yet,
02:00:45.720 but you saw with the,
02:00:46.500 with the video things
02:00:47.760 they released earlier,
02:00:48.780 it's getting there
02:00:49.760 quickly.
02:00:50.400 Yeah.
02:00:50.720 I think we can do
02:00:51.820 better than that.
02:00:53.020 I think so too.
02:00:53.640 I think we should try
02:00:54.180 some new ones.
02:00:54.560 I'd love to ask,
02:00:55.580 you know,
02:00:55.800 the audience,
02:00:57.060 David Schneck,
02:00:58.600 Gina Parker,
02:01:00.360 Lee Finley,
02:01:01.460 for the Texas Court
02:01:03.440 of Criminal Appeals.
02:01:05.580 How do you make
02:01:06.340 people remember that?
02:01:07.440 I think the best way
02:01:08.660 is to do a,
02:01:09.580 you know,
02:01:10.120 an earworm
02:01:10.640 that you just can't get out.
02:01:11.800 I don't think that's it,
02:01:13.440 but maybe,
02:01:14.060 I mean,
02:01:14.340 can we hear it again?
02:01:15.160 Oh,
02:01:15.180 shit,
02:01:15.480 Parker,
02:01:16.260 Finley,
02:01:17.020 we depend.
02:01:18.380 No,
02:01:18.920 it's not.
02:01:20.280 It's not.
02:01:22.080 But,
02:01:22.600 you know,
02:01:22.920 maybe you have a band
02:01:23.900 or,
02:01:25.960 or you're just better
02:01:27.700 at using AI
02:01:28.640 than I am,
02:01:29.680 which can't be tough.
02:01:31.720 No.
02:01:32.160 Can't be tough.
02:01:32.700 Because it doesn't seem like,
02:01:33.640 it seems like,
02:01:34.340 is there a higher resolution
02:01:35.600 version of this
02:01:37.780 that you could purchase?
02:01:39.400 No.
02:01:39.900 Purchase?
02:01:40.500 I'm not that committed.
02:01:41.900 Right.
02:01:42.400 I mean,
02:01:42.580 we lose our country,
02:01:43.620 but I'm not that committed.
02:01:44.580 Yeah,
02:01:44.680 you don't want to spend
02:01:45.160 like five bucks a month on it.
02:01:46.280 If it would have been good,
02:01:48.060 you know,
02:01:49.020 maybe.
02:01:49.640 I mean,
02:01:50.200 let me play one more.
02:01:51.160 Can we play it live here,
02:01:52.240 Sarah?
02:01:52.540 Let me play this real quick.
02:01:54.240 This is the other one.
02:01:55.220 This was so bad,
02:01:56.180 I just didn't even think
02:01:57.160 that we should,
02:01:57.900 but listen to this.
02:02:01.020 This is the other.
02:02:02.360 I'm like,
02:02:02.760 oh.
02:02:02.900 Here we go,
02:02:19.180 here we go,
02:02:19.580 here we go.
02:02:20.080 Listen to this.
02:02:20.520 King Parker Finley too.
02:02:24.740 For the court of appeals.
02:02:27.640 Of criminal justice.
02:02:29.800 Patriots through and through.
02:02:32.520 Yeah.
02:02:33.040 See,
02:02:33.300 I just think this is just,
02:02:34.380 did you tell her
02:02:35.100 to take off keys?
02:02:36.340 I don't know.
02:02:36.620 This is so bad.
02:02:37.800 It's just so bad.
02:02:38.820 And I thought,
02:02:39.480 well,
02:02:39.660 maybe this is so bad
02:02:41.260 that you would remember
02:02:42.320 Schneck,
02:02:42.960 Parker,
02:02:43.400 and Finley.
02:02:43.920 Drunk is the AI.
02:02:50.800 What drug is the AI on?
02:02:52.860 I know.
02:02:53.500 They don't mention the names,
02:02:55.960 except.
02:02:59.400 Yeah.
02:03:00.220 That's not good.
02:03:01.100 It only mentions their name once
02:03:02.540 and I'm like,
02:03:03.000 well,
02:03:03.080 that's not worth it.
02:03:04.720 It's like,
02:03:05.040 I need like Asa Bass,
02:03:06.700 you know.
02:03:07.120 Okay.
02:03:07.520 All she wants is another baby
02:03:09.260 or whatever the hell
02:03:10.020 that thing was.
02:03:10.760 Yeah.
02:03:10.980 And they sang,
02:03:11.980 you know,
02:03:12.300 they only had like seven words
02:03:13.680 in the entire three minute song.
02:03:15.320 Well,
02:03:15.560 that's what I want.
02:03:16.700 And I think what you think
02:03:17.840 of how to win over Texans,
02:03:19.320 you're thinking Asa Bass.
02:03:20.280 You are thinking Asa Bass.
02:03:20.640 You go directly to this
02:03:21.780 90s Swedish pop.
02:03:22.860 I just need something
02:03:23.840 that people are like,
02:03:24.640 oh,
02:03:24.840 I can't get this out of my mind.
02:03:26.420 Right.
02:03:26.960 So then,
02:03:28.220 Schneck,
02:03:29.440 Parker,
02:03:30.440 Finley
02:03:30.860 for the Court of Criminal Appeals.
02:03:33.660 Right.
02:03:34.140 When they're like,
02:03:34.560 I can't get that out of my mind.
02:03:36.620 We win.
02:03:37.680 So I'm depending on you.
02:03:39.020 The Glenn Beck Program.
02:03:44.180 The Glenn Beck Program.
