Jace Medical, you know, we don't think about antibiotics until we really need them.
00:00:42.380
And even then, we kind of just like, we got to run to the store and get them.
00:00:45.520
If that moment comes and the pharmacy is closed, I mean, Stu just did this.
00:00:49.500
He was on vacation and he was up at two o'clock in the morning looking for an open pharmacy
00:00:53.820
so he could reduce the fever on his, uh, you know, one of his children.
00:00:56.780
Um, and you're staring at locked doors, driving all over God only knows where.
00:01:01.460
But if you have a Jace Medical case, preparedness is not paranoia.
00:01:07.820
It's being prepared so you don't have to get up in the middle of the night
00:01:11.480
and go chase a pharmacy or a doctor in some town that you, you know, you don't know about.
00:01:16.020
So you saw it coming, you were ready for the worst time, uh, be prepared.
00:01:24.660
So prepare now for the worst time with Jace Medical.

The value of America's gold hoard is top $1 trillion for the first time.
00:03:47.860
First of all, I'm not sure the gold even exists, but we're not saving.
00:03:52.680
What's happening is because of what we are doing as a country, gold is going through the roof.
00:03:58.780
Yesterday, I remember telling you 12 months ago, $4,200 gold.
00:04:04.380
I mean, that is going to be tough, but I mean, it could happen.
00:04:08.520
Six months ago, I was telling you, better hurry before it's a history lesson, right?
00:04:23.380
That's a 45% increase in the price of gold in the last year.
00:04:33.560
Well, there's another story that's kind of connected that might actually be some good news for this, and that is, it's government shutdown day.
00:04:49.480
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.
00:04:56.980
Heard the car pull in the day you lost your job.
00:04:59.700
Knew something was wrong before you ever said a word.
00:05:01.880
Sat at your feet through the arguments and the tough times and when your kids are going crazy.
00:05:07.000
Been there for the celebrations, the late night movies, and the early morning coffee.
00:05:14.640
There is a great way for you to be there for him or her now.
00:05:18.080
Make sure he's getting the kind of nutrition that he needs, and Rough Greens is just a simple powder that you add to your dog's food that gives him the nutrition that he's been missing all along.
00:05:27.660
The live vitamins and minerals and probiotics and the enzymes, not to make him somebody else, but to help him feel like himself again.
00:05:36.940
There's a reason Rough Greens is known as America's number one dog supplement.
00:05:40.140

00:06:02.260
Welcome to the program, Mr. Stubergeer, our executive producer.
00:06:06.600
How excited are you that our gold reserves are over a trillion dollars now?
00:06:11.680
Almost as excited as I am for shutdown day, Glenn.
00:06:20.460
I mean, I'll tell you why here in a minute, but let me just stay on gold here for a second.
00:06:32.720
But if your point is that gold is performing very well, it has performed very well as an investment.
00:06:39.440
I mean, I'm trying to think, other than Bitcoin, is there anything else that is performing this well?
00:06:58.920
Maybe it's the constant printing of money that has gone on forever.
00:07:03.880
Whatever, no matter who the president is, no matter who's in Congress, it's just, that's
00:07:08.740
the one thing we all seem to agree on, printing more money nonstop.
00:07:15.220
And the market is telling you, I don't think this is a good idea.
00:07:21.940
That's what the price of Bitcoin is telling you.
00:07:28.000
So anybody who is, I mean, I actually saw people go, this is great.
00:07:36.320
We have 8,100 pounds of gold or so they'll lead you to believe.
00:07:50.780
The next closest, they say, is Germany with almost 2,000 tons of gold.
00:08:02.040
But I'm not sure any of that gold is there in the first place.
00:08:06.320
And even if we took 8,100 tons of gold and we sold it or exchanged it for our debt, we
00:08:17.960
A trillion dollars will cover half of the deficit from this year alone.
00:08:26.820
You sell all of our gold and it won't even cover the shortfall from this year's spending.
00:08:43.440
I'm just saying, because that doesn't bode well.
00:08:46.040
You know, when you have Fort Knox protecting our treasure and it doesn't even cover the bounced
00:08:52.920
checks, I don't know if you're going to make it, you know.
00:09:07.660
Stu, give me your opinion on the government shutdown.
00:09:11.940
Well, generally speaking, I feel like the government shutdown puts the government back to some sort
00:09:22.440
It's like if you have a non-essential employee that you can let stay home, they should maybe
00:09:30.120
Maybe all of the employees for the federal government should be essential.
00:09:35.760
But really, the question with a shutdown like this is what happens with the politics.
00:09:39.820
And we know typically the party who's out of power that is coming up with the demands
00:09:44.380
and not just passing the clean CR is the one that gets blamed for it.
00:09:48.700
But I've got news for you that might not be the case this time.
00:09:59.760
He's the Office of Management and Budget, the OMB.
00:10:02.520
And he's the guy actually in charge of, you know, making sure everything is funded, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
00:10:11.200
He is a brilliant architect of small government.
00:10:19.980
What Congress did is they, they last week, they have a majority in the House.
00:10:29.300
Last week, they passed a clean continuing resolution that would fund the government without any meaningful policy changes or add-ons.
00:10:42.940
Now, the Senate requires seven Democrats to join the Republicans to hit the 60-vote threshold.
00:10:49.180
But the Democrats weren't allowed to vote yes unless Republicans agreed to a $1 trillion bunch of new demands.
00:11:01.180
Republicans said, no, no, not going to do that.
00:11:04.900
One of the things they wanted to do was fund Obamacare for illegals.
00:11:12.580
When Obama said, you're never going to have an illegal, I got any money from Obamacare.
00:11:18.120
They wanted money to be able to pay for Obamacare for illegals.
00:11:22.740
Congress said, no, okay, so what happens tonight when they shut things down?
00:11:32.200
Russ vote is going to, um, be in the driver's seat.
00:11:38.340
If Congress shuts down now, if the government shuts down, he's going to go to work on some changes.
00:11:45.640
He's already instructed agencies to, quote, send reduction in force notices to all employees in programs, projects, or activities that check all three of the following boxes.
00:12:00.860
One, they're not paid for by mandatory spending.
00:12:04.560
Two, they aren't covered by the Big Beautiful Bill Act.
00:12:08.480
Three, they aren't in line with the president's goals.
00:12:14.580
But until the program is reauthorized by Congress, at which point, then, the people that they've just let go can reapply for their jobs.
00:12:35.580
One, if the program is not paid for by mandatory spending, if it's not covered by the Big Beautiful Bill Act, or if it's not in line with the government's, the president's goals,
00:12:55.640
Until Congress comes back and not reauthorizes a bill, but reauthorizes all of those programs.
00:13:06.020
Um, I think this may be the happiest day I've had in a long time, if that works.
00:13:12.920
Because this may be one of the greatest things anyone has ever pulled off.
00:13:18.520
And the reason why the Democrats are going to lose is because, you know, Chuck Schumer, he took a heavy blow last time, you know, when he authorized, uh, the, you know, first budget earlier this year.
00:13:35.980
He's like, I don't really have any tools to fight with here.
00:13:42.820
So now, nobody in the Democratic Party wants to do anything but shut it down.
00:13:48.660
Unless they get a trillion dollars additional spending for illegals on, on, on Obamacare.
00:13:55.100
And all of the radicals, Chuck Schumer is being, you know, going to be primaried by a radical.
00:14:00.580
And so they know the radicals are going to get rid of all of the sane people.
00:14:06.140
Not that Chuck Schumer is sane, but all of the relatively sane people.
00:14:15.460
And they think that this will work to their advantage.
00:14:19.000
And I don't know, as Stu just said, probably will because the GOP is so unbelievably incompetent.
00:14:26.580
Yeah, and obviously the media is going to do what they can.
00:14:31.140
I mean, it struck me yesterday, you know, we haven't heard word one about any poor mothers who, who will be at home without any money.
00:14:41.520
If the government shuts down, I mean, usually this is two weeks of lead up of, of the sad single mom who will be at home and can't pay her bills.
00:14:49.860
And we meet every single one of them over and over and over and over and over again.
00:14:54.440
Have you heard word one of any consequences of a shutdown?
00:14:57.640
None of these people matter, apparently, this week.
00:15:13.420
What is the possibility that you're implying here?
00:15:17.180
Well, the media obviously is, has abandoned their typical way of covering this because usually what happens in these situations is the party that is out of power, that is demanding these things.
00:15:32.720
They're the ones that would be blamed for a shutdown.
00:15:43.740
The only reason that we aren't going to continue spending at these completely absurd levels is because the Democrats are stopping it.
00:15:54.380
Normally, the way this works in the media, it would be the Democrats, the out-of-party, out-of-power party that would be blamed for this.
00:16:01.700
They're the ones getting in the way of everything, just continuing this wonderful way forward where we continue to spend more money than we have.
00:16:08.960
And in this particular case, I'm not seeing any of that lead up.
00:16:13.080
I have not seen the talks about, I have not met the restaurant and bar owner in Washington, D.C. yet that's going to have no one coming in and they're going to have to lay off all of their waitresses and waiters at their restaurant.
00:16:25.740
I have not heard any of the people who rent out homes to those who no longer have jobs and they're as landlords are going to be sobbing as they can't pay their electricity bills.
00:16:37.860
I have not heard any of these sob stories, any of the violin music.
00:16:51.820
Everyone's just happy with the shutdown this one time.
00:16:55.340
The media is doing everything they can to try to turn this into a situation where the Republicans will be blamed for it because this is their job.
00:17:05.220
Figure out a way to blame evil Republicans for everything.
00:17:08.640
This one time they're going to try to do it this way.
00:17:11.040
And then, you know, next time there's a Democrat in office, the opposite is going to be their approach.
00:17:16.180
But we are at a time where we're going to figure out, yet again, whether the media can, if they are still capable, of manipulating this into a situation in which the Democrats benefit.
00:17:27.520
And if it works, you're going into a midterm election next year that is already stacked against Republicans.
00:17:36.040
It's already a very difficult thing to do in an off year of a president's new term.
00:17:40.740
So, this is what their hope is, and this is a big bet by Schumer because, as you point out, if he doesn't do this, he gets primaried by AOC and loses.
00:17:52.060
He has to do this for his own political survival.
00:17:55.860
So, you know, it's hard to imagine this getting cleaned up before the shutdown actually occurs.
00:18:04.500
Yeah, I don't think, the shutdown is going to occur.
00:18:13.620
And then, of course, planes will fall out of the skies.
00:18:17.300
Babies will no longer be able to suckle on their mother's teat.
00:18:24.380
Probably about, maybe an hour after the shutdown.
00:18:27.880
And it will be all horrible, horrible, horrible.
00:18:34.500
How they have handed the president such a victory.
00:18:44.980
If I understand this right, and I think I do, the victory that they are handing him is long-term.
00:18:54.580
By being able to fire people and then saying, you got to reapply.
00:18:59.800
I mean, he has just put a monkey wrench into agencies and things that he's wanting to shut down.
00:19:13.100
I like the idea that they're going to try to push it in the right way.
00:19:20.440
I mean, you know, there's a very good chance the same type of thing happens here.
00:19:23.640
I mean, I'm not nearly as confident in this approach as you are.
00:19:32.240
I mean, on paper, that's what they're trying to do.
00:19:36.980
But on the short term, you can't spend the money that's not there.
00:19:45.360
And so they'll have to cut it down to the bone.
00:19:48.920
And, you know, again, I go back to essential employees.
00:19:53.420
Everybody else should go home and stay home forever.
00:19:57.020
If you're not essential, why are we paying you?
00:20:02.280
Why am I working all day long so you could have a job that's not essential?
00:20:17.480
The most dangerous thing about the power grid is how much we assume that it's always going to be there
00:20:24.280
Every switch you flip, every screen you stare into, every appliance humming quietly in the background,
00:20:29.320
it's all built on the idea that electricity will be there when you need it.
00:20:35.740
I mean, have you seen the price of electricity going up now just because of AI?
00:20:39.540
The juice that AI is already starting to suck out of the system is driving energy prices up.
00:20:46.380
And it's there when you need it until it's not.
00:20:50.540
And when that moment comes, the lights go dark, the neighborhood gets quiet,
00:20:53.680
you find out how little control you actually had.
00:20:56.500
That's why MyPatriotSupply built the GridDoctor 3000.
00:20:59.800
It's quiet, it's compact, it's solar-powered backup generator that doesn't just help you through an outage.
00:21:06.720
No gas, no fumes, no noise, just 3300 watts of dependable power.
00:21:19.120
All the money that I lost in the freezers, really not good.
00:21:24.820
Zero down and as little as $104 a month when you shop now at MyPatriotSupply.com slash Beck.
00:21:34.720
3300 watts of backup power delivered to your door, $0 down.
00:21:39.560
See the page for more details at MyPatriotSupply.com slash Beck.
00:21:57.160
So, uh, I just watched an hour of Pete Hegseth, um, meeting at the Pentagon with all of the leaders.
00:22:07.420
And it all makes perfect sense to me why he called everybody in.
00:22:13.340
Um, remember this was been speculated now, you know, we're going to war, we're going to whatever.
00:22:18.200
And nobody really knew until he spoke at the Pentagon today to all of the leaders of our military all over the world.
00:22:27.440
They've all been called back to Washington, D.C. for this meeting today.
00:22:36.260
In listening to it, he didn't say anything other than common sense.
00:22:40.580
You know, we, we have this wishy-washy, you know, uh, coalition building, you know, let's spread democracy kind of military that is now have men in dresses and everything else.
00:22:53.520
And his goal has been to change that, uh, from top to bottom and he's been doing it today.
00:23:04.300
And more in real clear terms, we are no longer putting up with any kind of, uh, non action.
00:23:11.020
If you, if you're not earning your position, if you're not a person of merit, you will not be promoted.
00:23:25.780
Our job is to defend our country and to become a, the most lethal killing machine, um, in the world.
00:23:40.720
Um, and I want to take a couple of minutes, um, after this quick break to explain why did he call everybody in?
00:23:54.360
I mean, it's just my guess of why, but it makes perfect sense.
00:24:05.500
The first thing you notice is that, uh, it works, you know, the calls don't drop.
00:24:12.460
You don't have to fiddle with, you know, the settings or switch your phone.
00:24:15.680
You just switch your service and it works exactly the way it has been working.
00:24:21.760
They use the same tower networks as the big guys, which means you get the same reliable
00:24:26.540
coverage, the same speed, the same performance, but without paying into the system that mocks
00:24:31.000
your values, because that's the second thing you notice.
00:24:36.100
You're not funneling your money into companies that fund political causes that you don't believe
00:24:41.800
You're not supporting DEI agendas or woke activism disguised as corporate policy.
00:24:47.060
You're paying for service and service that respects you and your values.
00:24:53.360
They offer great coverage, affordable plans, and a U S based customer support team that
00:24:59.160
Switching is easier than ever activated in minutes from the comfort of your home.

He is now live addressing the top military leaders, uh, after the address with Pete Hagseth.
00:25:52.000
That are doing so well together over the next few years.
00:25:57.120
We're going to make our military stronger, tougher, faster, fiercer, and more powerful
00:26:04.860
I rebuilt our nuclear, as you probably know, but we'll upgrade that also and just hope we
00:26:11.140
We have to hope we never have to use it because the, the power of that is so incredible.
00:26:22.020
I, I don't, I really wouldn't want them to show it to you.
00:26:24.620
But when you see the result of what's left, you never want to use that.
00:26:33.620
We were a little bit threatened by Russia recently.
00:26:39.740
And I sent a submarine, nuclear submarine, the most lethal weapon ever made.
00:26:51.620
We're 25 years ahead of Russia and China in submarines.
00:27:00.020
But they're, you know, they're coming up, they're coming up, they're way lower in nuclear
00:27:06.400
They're coming up and you don't have to be that good with nuclear.
00:27:11.300
You could have one 20th what you have now and still do the damage that would be, you know,
00:27:21.700
But I, so what he's talking about here, Pete Hegseth just came in and said, we're going to
00:27:25.920
reshape our strategy, which I think is really good.
00:27:29.680
You know, after the last 25 years of war, the last 50 years, the way we've been fighting
00:27:45.220
I mean, that is the, that should be the goal of our military.
00:27:49.940
You go in, you go in quickly and you just suck the air out of the lungs of your opponent.
00:27:56.260
So everybody's like, Oh my gosh, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
00:28:04.740
Now, when he's talking about nuclear, uh, I have talked to the president about this personally
00:28:12.660
He despises our nuclear capability and he knows what we can do because as he just said, he
00:28:21.440
Um, and he said, Glenn, you, you don't want to even know what we are capable of doing.
00:28:26.600
It, it's, it's, it just, it keeps him up at night.
00:28:31.100
Um, and he believes that we have to have these defenses or when the world goes crazy, if you
00:28:37.260
don't, you'll be threatened by them and you have to have a response to hold people into
00:28:44.200
Um, and that's why they've changed the department of defense to the department of war.
00:28:53.100
Um, Hegseth knows that we have become this, this force that cares more about, you know,
00:29:02.300
spreading democracy than winning a war when our nation is attacked.
00:29:08.460
You know, if you really wanted to change things, the United States would have gone in to Afghanistan
00:29:14.100
quickly, knocked out the Taliban, killed Osama bin Laden and come home, come home.
00:29:26.140
We are going to destroy the people who have just hurt us in our own homeland.
00:29:32.960
You will pay the highest of prices, but we're not going to get involved in your local politics
00:29:39.900
And the state department and everybody else has made this nation building bull crap, our
00:29:47.860
That's not what our Pentagon is supposed to do.
00:29:51.620
They are supposed to break things and kill people.
00:29:54.820
And so the first message that, uh, Pete Hegseth and the president sent to the fighting
00:30:03.160
And I believe even our own fighting forces is we are not a department of defense.
00:30:14.320
We don't want to go to war, but that's what we should be preparing for all the time.
00:30:18.680
Because if we're prepared for war, it's the best deterrent out there to stop wars.
00:30:38.520
There's been speculation on, you know, what does all this mean?
00:30:41.840
Let me tell you what I think it means after listening to Hegseth.
00:30:51.820
He said in the coming months, we're going to be changing all of our strategies.
00:30:55.840
Um, we are going to be relooking at, uh, our, uh, offense and defensive posture all over
00:31:02.920
We are not going to be playing the same game anymore.
00:31:10.040
That's not worth calling everybody in from all over the world.
00:31:16.360
We've made some changes and you have felt those changes.
00:31:22.160
We are now a department of war and we operate only on merit, not DEI, not special favors,
00:31:30.120
not how long you've been in the chain of command.
00:31:33.460
If you don't earn your space, you lose your space.
00:31:42.680
If you can't pass the physical test, you're out.
00:31:52.440
His main thing, I think, was to let the fighting force, let the leadership know two things.
00:32:00.120
One, if you're a warrior and you want to be a warrior, you are probably the one who is
00:32:06.880
least likely to vote for war because you know what war does.
00:32:19.360
But you grew up most likely, and I'm paraphrasing him.
00:32:23.700
You grew up wanting to be a soldier, wanting to defend your country, and you have now found
00:32:30.860
yourself in this situation to where that's not what you've been doing.
00:32:35.420
You've been nation building and you've been, you know, the woke police.
00:32:50.780
If you work at all remotely, like today I'm in Florida, my staff is in Dallas.
00:32:57.720
And if I said to my staff, uh, guys, I want to have a meeting today online and it's mandatory.
00:33:05.680
And I make a statement and I say, Hey, we're changing a bunch of stuff.
00:33:12.180
It'll imprint and make an impact, but not the kind of impact that I said,
00:33:18.060
everybody, I want you to drop everything you're doing.
00:33:21.720
And I want you to get on a plane and you're going to join me for a day in Florida because
00:33:26.940
I want an all hands on deck meeting and everyone is required to be there.
00:33:33.080
That gets everybody in the building going, what the hell is happening?
00:33:41.860
You are listening intently and you realize that your boss has now sent a message.
00:33:54.560
I mean, these words, we are changing the way we do things.
00:34:03.700
That's why he called everybody in, not for any new war tactics.
00:34:09.680
I mean, those may be discussed, but it's, it's not that we are, you know, going to war
00:34:15.060
with anybody going to war with Russia or anything else.
00:34:25.640
The culture is going to change and it's going to change right now.
00:34:37.060
It was the most common sense thing I've heard from a leader in Washington in a very long
00:34:46.280
It was everything he said was like, okay, well that makes sense.
00:34:50.400
And then you follow that with, I mean, you know, the answer, but you follow that with
00:34:58.060
No, they haven't because we haven't been fighting.
00:35:02.540
We, we are so far away from common sense that no, you do have to say those things now.
00:35:10.180
Yeah, you're not going to advance unless you're actually making our situation stronger in the
00:35:21.500
If you're making it weaker, if you are, if you are, uh, if you are sabotaging us, if you
00:35:28.040
think you're going to escape, you're not going to escape.
00:35:35.620
It's called accountability and I haven't heard that for quite some time.
00:35:47.140
He is, you know, I don't know if you saw his 20 point plan for Israel.
00:35:58.640
He's not going in and taking this, this view of what we've done before.
00:36:08.900
So I've gotten with everybody in the Arab world and I've gotten with Israel that hasn't
00:36:17.380
I got everybody in the Arab world and Israel, and we're telling you right now, Hamas, release
00:36:33.620
It's not the United States or Israel dictating this to you.
00:36:37.320
The Arab world is saying exactly what I'm saying.
00:36:41.500
So you are out of step with your own people all around you.
00:36:53.140
Israel has Benjamin Netanyahu said, if they fool around, if they don't accept it, or if
00:36:59.480
they accept it and then don't follow through and release the hostages, then we will finish
00:37:05.320
And what that means is they'll kill all of the Hamas leadership as they should.
00:37:11.380
I can't believe we're debating that in the first place, but, and there's no two state
00:37:18.400
Now the Arabs are saying, do all these things and then we'll talk about a two state solution.
00:37:23.500
But Hamas and the Palestinians do not want a two state solution.
00:37:29.100
They have been talking about giving Israel, giving the Palestinians a two state solution
00:37:41.420
They want to wipe out from the river to the sea, i.e. all of Israel.
00:37:47.540
They want to wipe it out and make it void of any Jews.
00:37:58.860
And I think what Donald Trump is, is doing is absolutely right.
00:38:02.960
No, we're not even going to talk about a two state solution until you do all of these
00:38:07.240
things, stop terror, release all the hostages, then come to the negotiating table.
00:38:17.840
If this guy can get these things done, he transforms the world.
00:38:24.120
Now, I have very little faith that, you know, the Middle East is ever going to find peace.
00:38:33.400
You might find it temporarily, but they're not going to find peace.
00:38:45.760
I mean, it does actually end well, but first, there's a lot of problems with it.
00:39:05.520
Now, now the conspiracy theory is, is that his own people shot him.
00:39:09.740
Last week, I think it was that the Israelis had a trap trap door behind him, and that's
00:39:15.560
why they're redoing that whole section because they have to get rid of seal that tunnel underneath
00:39:20.200
the stage where they had a trap door and some Jew popped out and shot him in the back.
00:39:27.880
I don't know how you would possibly even believe that, but the other was, uh, yeah.
00:39:33.480
Well, Charlie was, uh, turning on the Israelis.
00:39:39.380
Now the seven page letter is out and I'm glad they released it.
00:39:46.000
First, our sponsor this, uh, this half hour is chapter.
00:39:54.160
The time to sign up for Medicaid, uh, or Medicare is right now, or it will be soon.
00:39:59.160
If you are on Medicare, uh, and you're looking or you're looking for a plan cause you're about
00:40:05.660
to go on, be careful, be careful how you choose.
00:40:10.540
There's their plans that you probably didn't even know existed chapter exist to make sure
00:40:21.220
This is a, this is a bunch of tech people who were big in AI, uh, I'm sorry, big in, uh,
00:40:26.440
Silicon Valley and they use AI and their parents all got screwed by these insurance companies
00:40:33.540
that were only showing them this plan and this plan, not all of them.
00:40:41.420
They wanted to make sure that didn't happen to people anymore.
00:40:45.120
So they started chapter and it's really a tech service, uh, with really good people.
00:40:53.660
They use the tech, they ask you a whole bunch of questions, takes about 20 minutes, whole
00:40:57.920
bunch of questions, find out your medical needs, where you are, what you're looking for.
00:41:02.180
And then they go out and they search every plan and they come up with the right plan for
00:41:12.080
Enrollment season is right now are coming right up on us.
00:41:18.760
All you have to do is hit pound two 50, go to your phone, hit pound two 50, say the keyword
00:41:40.540
If you don't grab the reins every once in a while, you're liable to catch a hoof to the
00:42:02.180
You're sitting at your kitchen table, sipping coffee, checking your email, and then all
00:42:07.540
of a sudden you see it and notice about a loan you never took out paperwork you've never
00:42:15.180
It's your house, but you didn't do any of this.
00:42:19.820
And someone somewhere in the world got your title and they used it to steal your home
00:42:25.700
Not physically, of course, you're still living there, but on paper, it's not yours anymore.
00:42:31.240
And now you're the one lift to prove that you didn't commit fraud because no one's coming
00:42:38.240
Unless you have Home Title Lock, Home Title Lock is the only service that proactively
00:42:41.400
monitors your property title 24-7 and alerts you the moment anything suspicious happens.
00:42:45.760
So you never have to deal with that in the first place.
00:42:48.000
If somehow a transfer is initiated, if someone tries to add a new name to your deed, if anything
00:42:53.460
at all starts moving behind your back, they'll catch it for you.
00:42:56.640
And if your title is compromised, their resolution team works with you to help fix the damage.
00:43:02.040
Your title, the very document that proves you own your home, is probably sitting unguarded
00:43:07.220
right now in some digital system that anyone with the right software can access.
00:43:17.880
And you know, AI is changing the world, but don't let it change the name on your home's
00:43:22.280
Go to HomeTitleLock.com and use the promo code BLAZE.
00:43:37.220
What Pete Hegseth has done is absolutely brilliant.
00:43:45.840
Well, of course, of course you do, because it's a total Glenn Beck move.
00:43:49.260
You make everybody, you know, upend their lives and fly across the world to watch you
00:44:05.300
Sitting in the room and he says, hey, all you fat generals and admirals, that's not who
00:44:12.420
Everybody wears a uniform, takes a PT test twice a year and has to pass the height weight
00:44:32.700
And just like that, you're back to candles and guesswork, wondering how long it'll be
00:44:36.800
It doesn't take long to realize that modern life and every piece of it runs on power.
00:44:48.780
And according to the Department of Energy, blackouts could increase up to 10,000% in the
00:44:59.560
Get the grid doctor 3,300, the solar generator for zero down and as little as $104 a month
00:45:06.680
when you shop at mypatriotsupply.com slash Beck.
00:45:10.440
10,000% increase in power outages in the next couple of years.
00:45:23.000
2,000% increase in power outages in the next couple of years.
00:45:30.320
And you will find that we are content and the world'sפicit.com slash Beck.
00:46:31.540
And I'm going to try to make sense of some of it
00:46:35.660
And hopefully help you be a better person today
00:46:43.960
First, let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour
00:46:46.660
It's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
00:47:40.240
The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews
01:27:58.360
President Trump and our Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, spoke to the generals and the
01:28:06.080
leaders of our military today in something that was highly, highly unusual.
01:28:11.200
Everybody was wondering, are we going to a global war or whatever?
01:28:15.440
No, I explained it earlier today in the podcast.
01:28:19.080
It makes total sense to me why he held it here in person.
01:28:24.520
He was sending a very strong message to the military commanders and the leaders.
01:28:29.460
This is no longer the U.S. military that you grew up in or you've been working in.
01:28:35.960
This is the U.S. military, the one you dreamt about serving in when you were young.
01:28:44.440
Also, the president spoke and the president is moving on a couple of things.
01:28:48.160
First, it looks like we're going to have a government shutdown today.
01:28:52.640
And on top of that, he is going after George Soros and Antifa.
01:28:58.380
And probably the guy who knows more about Antifa than I think anybody else is Andy Ngo.
01:29:06.280
We're going to talk to him coming up in just a minute.
01:29:11.380
You know, the culture tells young women that heartbeats don't count unless somebody decides
01:29:17.140
And for years, they've gotten away with it by keeping the truth out of sight.
01:29:20.700
This is why Planned Parenthood does not want ultrasound machines or states to require an
01:29:26.000
ultrasound because they know that ultrasound, one that now pre-born brings to every single
01:29:33.440
mom that's coming into their office, they do an ultrasound.
01:29:39.720
They provide free ultrasounds to women facing unplanned pregnancies.
01:29:43.660
And that often changes everything because it's hard to believe a lie when you're staring at
01:29:49.600
And then when that truth takes hold, 80% of the time she chooses life.
01:29:56.920
You know, moms come in there with no support whatsoever, no money.
01:30:02.100
They're pulling back the curtain on a culture that has lost its conscience and giving moms
01:30:07.380
the chance to feel something real again and to feel love and also taking care of for the
01:30:17.580
Pre-born is there fighting for the mom, providing food and clothing and everything else that they
01:30:26.780
Just $28 provides the truth for a free ultrasound.
01:30:29.460
This is your chance to make a difference that echoes into the eternities.
01:30:37.120
That's preborn.com slash Beck or hit pound 250 on your phone and say the keyword name.
01:30:51.000
Sarah, let me know when we can get a hold of Andy and we'll bring him on.
01:31:00.280
She's nodding at you furiously on the other side of the glass.
01:31:04.360
So the nodding thing really doesn't work, Sarah.
01:31:14.120
You know, she has real anger problems in there.
01:31:19.380
I mean, you know, it calms her down for a while, but then about this time in the morning,
01:31:23.740
the alcohol starts to fuel some of her anger and her rage issues.
01:31:36.500
You know, a lot of people think that alcoholism, you know, a sign of that is that you start drinking
01:31:41.180
in the morning, and the good thing is with Sarah, she just doesn't stop drinking.
01:31:45.840
You know, at one point she started drinking in the afternoon and at night, and then it's
01:31:50.220
just been continual, so she doesn't start drinking in the morning.
01:31:52.560
Yeah, it's the same binge from back in the day.
01:31:56.580
Just consistency is what it is, and it's impressive.
01:32:07.940
Anyway, Andy Ngo is going to be joining us here in just a minute.
01:32:14.300
I'm interested in talking to him because of what is going to happen, Stu, when...
01:32:20.320
I mean, Trump is sending, you know, feds into Portland now because they're so out of control.
01:32:29.480
He is, you know, the ICE thing we're not fooling around with.
01:32:32.660
And now they're investigating Antifa and its money sources.
01:32:42.180
And I don't know for whom it's going to end worse.
01:32:46.140
I think it's going to probably be pretty ugly for everybody, but it's already ugly for what
01:32:52.620
That's already an ongoing problem that does need to be dealt with.
01:32:57.660
You know, again, you can question, and we have to see what the process is.
01:33:04.200
You know, there are limits to federal power in these situations, and we have to make sure
01:33:12.560
You know, Andy Ngo can probably attest to that more than anyone as he was assaulted and
01:33:20.460
He probably has more information on Antifa than anybody else.
01:33:28.300
You know, when you think of Antifa, you would think that if they are anti-fascist, one of
01:33:34.940
their big things would be no digital ID, but they don't really seem to be all over that
01:33:45.540
Yeah, the digital ID thing is absolutely terrifying, and they just said that you have to have it
01:33:54.060
in England now, or you won't be able to get a job.
01:33:56.700
This is their way of solving, you know, forget about the borders.
01:34:05.400
How hard is it to keep people from floating onto your island?
01:34:11.020
Instead, we need digital ID, because somehow or another, they're going to care about having
01:34:19.420
And what this all is, honestly, this is about control.
01:34:27.960
There also seems to be some real confusion as to what fascism is.
01:34:33.800
You know, there are a lot of, like, dictionary definitions we could get into, but can I give
01:34:47.420
Quote, they want to take us back to no income tax, no regulations, earn what you want, family
01:35:08.080
You need a dictator to say, I'm not going to do anything.
01:35:19.100
You know, Hitler famous for having no regulations on the nation of Germany.
01:35:28.000
They had complete control over every aspect of civilization.
01:35:41.180
You remember the famous Nuremberg speech where he outlined the zero income tax philosophy.
01:35:52.680
It's that thing that, you know, fascism and Nazi has just become anything they don't like.
01:35:59.500
And I guess at some level, I'm excited that the progressives who brought us fascism, who
01:36:09.640
I just want to state, what he just said, look it up, is absolutely 100% correct.
01:36:19.940
It came from, you know, many roots inside the American progressive movement, as admitted
01:36:26.200
by the Nazi leaders at the time, before they were even seen as these evil monsters.
01:36:35.200
And Wilson loved the fascistic movement that was just starting to bubble into the...
01:36:42.680
He praised what was happening in 1919 in Russia.
01:36:46.520
He said that was finally a country we can work with who gets it.
01:36:52.060
I suppose at some level, I'm happy that the everything is bad summary that we've decided
01:37:02.860
I'm glad they're just, you know, because it was really bad.
01:37:08.500
I mean, now they are coming to this point where they think, I mean, again, like no income
01:37:14.100
tax, no regulations, earn what you want, family inherits everything.
01:37:22.440
You know, yes, it was a slightly different remix of the communist version of that.
01:37:36.120
They could lose it the minute they disagreed with the fascist dictator.
01:37:40.000
But they controlled everything that company did.
01:37:45.640
I mean, this was, it's well known that like the soup Nazi was because he was controlling
01:37:53.100
It wasn't because he gave all the soup away for free and let you make whatever soup you
01:37:57.700
That's what they called him the soup Nazi because they didn't think if you did anything
01:38:02.600
wrong, anything at all wrong, you would get no soup, no soup for you.
01:38:06.680
Like how, it just gets so twisted in these people.
01:38:11.200
I mean, this is a woman who had a show for a decade on a major cable news network.
01:38:18.020
A political show in which she was trusted to give opinions about politics.
01:38:28.600
Like it's the a hundred percent, the reverse of what it actually, of what the truth is.
01:38:38.480
Then I want to take a one minute break because I want to, I just want to let go.
01:38:43.600
I want to have another minute without this answer floating out there.
01:38:47.260
How, what is the percentage of the American population that would listen to her and go,
01:39:10.100
Well, I'm talking not about the tunnel to towers foundation, although they are very much like
01:39:13.940
I'm talking about the people that sign up for the worst day of someone else's life.
01:39:23.900
That's what a first responder and a military hero does.
01:39:26.280
And when they fall, there's a family that's left behind with a mortgage.
01:39:30.660
Kids who still need tucking in bills that keep coming long after the salutes have stopped.
01:39:38.580
They pay off home loans for fallen police officers, for gold star spouses, for firefighters who never
01:39:44.400
They build smart homes for veterans who come back broken, but still stand tall.
01:39:48.100
And most importantly, they stay long after the funeral, long after the cameras tunnel to
01:39:52.960
towers is still there because the country they died defending should stand with the ones that
01:40:01.540
You can't bake and pay back the sacrifice that they made, but you certainly can honor it.
01:40:05.820
Let's never forget these sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes.
01:40:09.000
Donate $11 a month to tunnel to towers at T2T.org.
01:40:15.020
If we want to have like no income tax and no regulation, that kind of fascism in our lives,
01:40:43.440
What percentage of the American populace would listen to Joy Reid say, this is the kind of
01:40:53.100
No income tax, no regulation, and you can do and make what you want and your kids and
01:41:03.160
What percentage of our population believes that is fascism?
01:41:10.820
And my gut is just to kind of basically say about half would be what I, right?
01:41:19.480
And I was like, well, I don't have any real basis for that.
01:41:22.040
Is there any way to actually look at this and try to come up with an answer that approximates
01:41:27.740
Because no one's pulled the dumb, the stupidity of Joy Reid's comments from yesterday has not
01:41:32.740
But I did find a poll that asked, is Donald Trump a fascist from 2024?
01:41:43.480
87% of Democrats believe that Donald Trump is a fascist.
01:41:52.020
Now, again, this is a man who they also complain constantly about cutting regulations.
01:41:59.860
One of their big complaints about Donald Trump is that he cuts regulations all the time in
01:42:05.860
He wants this, what was it, they used to call it extreme capitalism, this extreme freedom
01:42:23.580
Now, if you, if you are only listening to the New York times and CNN and, you know, Joy
01:42:30.500
Reid, Joy Reid, I can understand that because they're not telling you what the Democrats did
01:42:40.200
They're not telling you the truth on any of that.
01:42:42.900
I come back to Riaz Patel, a good friend of ours, been a friend of the show for a long
01:42:51.100
And in 2016, he went up because he could not believe these Trump supporters were like
01:42:58.960
And he just needed to meet them and find out what, why are you so racist?
01:43:03.760
And he went up to the, the reddest place he could find.
01:43:08.520
And he spent a week and he came back and he's like, that's not who they are.
01:43:15.280
And he was confused and he came to the show and I sat with him at a chalkboard and I said,
01:43:25.460
And I listed all of the big story, like, like the IRS targeting tea party groups.
01:43:34.320
And I gave him like 20 stories and they were huge stories.
01:43:41.420
He, he, in fact, he said those aren't, they can't be true.
01:43:45.980
And I'm like, here's the story on page 38 of the New York times.
01:43:52.340
It was just never made into a big deal by your side.
01:43:57.260
And I know those stories exist on our side as well, but not, I don't think to the degree that is happening on the left.
01:44:05.280
So you can kind of see, you know, for instance, I talked to Jonathan Haidt the other day and he said, you know,
01:44:11.160
I'm very concerned that Donald Trump is becoming an authoritarian when it comes to the justice department because he's targeting his political enemies.
01:44:20.980
And it took everything in me not to say, are you out of your mind?
01:44:25.640
You are going to say that somebody who agrees with the Democrats are going to say that to me.
01:44:30.400
You remember, and I didn't, I said, how did you get there?
01:44:36.360
And he said, well, I mean, you don't want a, I mean, that's fascism, Glenn.
01:44:41.280
You don't want a president to be able to say, and I said, I am with you 110%.
01:44:46.400
I don't want this president, the last president or any president ever to be able to say to the justice department, this is my enemy.
01:44:56.140
Find the dirt on him, find the laws that we can prosecute him on.
01:45:03.220
Um, and I said, and I'll stand up against that.
01:45:05.900
And he said, so don't you think that's what's happening?
01:45:10.860
And he said, well, because he said, if you won't prosecute this guy, then you're fired.
01:45:19.100
It went to a grand jury out of the three different, uh, three different charges.
01:45:24.640
The grand jury found him, uh, ready to be prosecuted on two.
01:45:35.980
The statute of limitations, you're either going to prosecute or you're not,
01:45:50.980
I mean, and even if you have questions about that, which I know, I think there are some
01:45:56.340
honest people on the left that would have questions over some of the stuff that's going
01:46:02.300
Uh, yeah, I love Jonathan Haidt and his books, you know, what you guys, I know, spent
01:46:06.460
most of the time on it was the, was the, the, the harm, the harm that, you know, cell phones
01:46:10.800
are doing to our kids and all of those things, which is vitally important.
01:46:14.300
And so this is a really important conversation you're going to have.
01:46:16.520
So, uh, to focus on this one part is, you know, not to mislead you on the actual podcast,
01:46:20.660
but, uh, one of the things, uh, that's frustrating, I think to most people about that is we do remember
01:46:27.420
they tried to put Donald Trump in prison for like 9,000 made up things.
01:46:32.200
You might even found one of the charges legitimate, right?
01:46:35.700
But like you, all of them, you, there's no way you can argue.
01:46:41.560
They tried to come after him in multiple different ways.
01:46:47.140
And that's the actual president of the United States while he was running to be reelected.
01:46:52.720
Like I can understand how you have issues with this.
01:46:55.280
And I have concerns over some of it as well on, on both sides when it comes to this, because
01:47:00.440
I think there is a, uh, you know, when you go down this road of just wanting to persecute
01:47:04.980
and prosecute your enemies, that, that can lead to a place that is problematic.
01:47:11.120
Usually, it usually does lead to a banana Republic.
01:47:16.000
Like when I was thinking about like the, you know, you're talking about James Comey, like
01:47:18.860
how is the James Comey thing any different than Scooter Libby back in the day?
01:47:26.940
Like, I think we had what, what I would argue was this mostly unspoken, mostly respected
01:47:33.440
truce between these two parties, which basically amounted to, unless it's really egregious, if
01:47:40.920
the person's on the other side, let's just move on.
01:47:44.420
And I don't know that that's the best way to run a civilization, but like, it is a thing
01:47:48.800
that I think existed in this country most of the time.
01:47:51.900
You don't get to keep that after you try to throw the president of the United States
01:48:01.120
Of course you don't have that protection anymore.
01:48:04.700
And, you know, I think most people who voted for Donald Trump look at it and say, well,
01:48:08.500
yeah, this is exactly what I voted for because they were doing this to us and now we have
01:48:14.480
What they did to us, I thought was unconstitutional.
01:48:20.360
If you violate the constitution, I'm no longer on your side, but I don't think he is at all.
01:48:34.200
It's, it's, it's, it's all of the stuff that the pain takes with it.
01:48:40.660
It takes your spontaneity and your ability to say yes without hesitation.
01:48:47.740
You, you know, check the chair before you sit, you know, you hesitate before you lift.
01:48:52.380
You decline invitations that would, you would have jumped on 10 years ago, not because you
01:48:56.900
don't want to go, but because you're not sure your body is going to cooperate.
01:48:59.620
Relief factor is a natural anti-inflammatory developed by doctors to address the root causes
01:49:05.780
of pain, not just mask it, but to reduce it from the inside out.
01:49:09.720
And it has been used by so many people that just didn't want to live on painkillers.
01:49:14.280
You can't live on painkillers, but they also don't want to give up on their bodies.
01:49:19.180
Two thirds of the people who try it go on to order more because it works.
01:49:23.120
And when the pain fades, something else comes back with it.
01:49:25.480
Trust, not in the product, but in yourself again, in your body.
01:49:29.480
Relief factor, because you shouldn't have to overthink walking across the room.

I was not excited about it because I'm not Charlie Kirk and I don't do what Charlie does.
01:50:35.800
But I think I have a lot to share and some things I really want to learn from the students at the University of North Dakota as well.

01:50:55.640
I asked Jason earlier today to watch the Pete Hegseth meeting or speech in front of all of the military leaders.
01:51:08.000
I think he brought them in to show them how deadly serious the changes at the Pentagon are going to be.
01:51:18.320
They, you know, changed it from the Department of Defense to the Department of War to show that we are a war machine.
01:51:24.480
That is our job to break things and kill people.
01:51:27.680
We don't want to, but when we have to, that's what we have to be the best in the world at.
01:51:32.900
And when I was watching this, it was so full of common sense and things that I would think if I were a soldier, I would have wanted to hear a long time ago.
01:51:45.800
Uh, in fact, he said, you know, this is not the Pentagon that you dreamt about serving in when you were young.
01:51:56.720
He said, we're getting back to what it really is.
01:52:02.000
It seemed really important, but I only saw bits and pieces.
01:52:09.280
Jason Wow, Glenn, I did not understand the reason for not just doing this on a Zoom call, or I didn't see the point really in bringing them all in until I saw this.
01:52:25.240
I mean, it is very clear that American military power is back.
01:52:33.400
It's every single reason why men and women put on the uniform and go to defend their country.
01:52:40.000
Uh, I haven't seen a military speech like that outside of a movie or.
01:52:48.420
I saw when, cause he was standing in front of a giant flag.
01:52:51.520
And the last time I saw this, it was done with somebody in a uniform.
01:52:56.640
He wasn't in a uniform was from the movie Patton.
01:52:59.960
And it kind of felt like that kind of felt like one of those that you're like, yes, you know, but the audience was very quiet.
01:53:06.920
I don't know how they related to it, but that's how you felt too.
01:53:10.420
Uh, there, there was like one time when I heard a few people, uh, you know, cheering, uh, in the crowd, but I guarantee you, these are not guys that are supposed to cheer in situations like that.
01:53:23.320
I won't say all of them, probably 99% of them were going insane.
01:53:29.760
They wanted a mosh pit and they wanted to crowd surf.
01:53:37.200
Um, what was it that he said that would cause the military leaders to do that?
01:53:41.680
Well, I mean, let's, let's start off with, um, this was a complete, this wasn't just a speech.
01:53:45.920
This was a complete realignment of the way that the military has been ran over, I would
01:53:51.500
say over a decade, a complete realignment and you, yeah, longer than that.
01:53:56.080
We talked about it yesterday on just some of the things we thought they were going to
01:53:59.280
They actually combined with his speech and the president's speech.
01:54:02.440
They actually covered every single thing that we talked about yesterday.
01:54:05.720
Um, but Peg Seth's, uh, portion was just the most exciting to me because now they're talking
01:54:10.980
about just doing away with all the DEI crap, all the stuff they were focused on.
01:54:15.660
They're switching completely to lethality and being a deadly fighting military force.
01:54:21.500
And I, we just haven't heard that it's been dressed up in politically correct garbage.
01:54:26.400
All the politically correct garbage is getting tossed out the window, but not only that, they're
01:54:30.920
focusing on change and how to, you know, as Bruce Lee would say to, to be like water with,
01:54:37.400
you know, the direction of how defense tactics and how, you know, uh, the way, the way a modern
01:54:46.080
He said, he's going to be making additional speeches that are going to cover, um, infrastructure,
01:54:55.500
Everything we need to do to harden down in case an actual huge conflict breaks out, we will
01:55:02.680
And I guarantee you with this department of war, with this secretary of war, and with
01:55:09.760
It might take a couple of years to fix the damage, but now not only we, but the, and all
01:55:15.140
the military leaders that have been frustrated for over a decade, now they can feel confident
01:55:24.200
I, to me, this makes total sense and is aligned with everything that Donald Trump says he's
01:55:30.800
doing or remember the world as we know, it was set up at Bretton woods.
01:55:36.080
It was our financial, everything after world war II, everything was decided on how we were
01:55:42.920
going to behave economically and militarily in 1962.
01:55:47.860
I think it was, um, a Carol will Carol Quinby, Carol, I can't remember his last name.
01:55:57.340
Um, but he was a Harvard, uh, professor and he wrote tragedy and hope.
01:56:03.140
And he was an insider and he had been in advising presidents, you know, from, uh, from Truman
01:56:10.580
Um, but in 1962, he was banned and everybody looked the other way because he wrote this
01:56:16.340
book and he said, look, I I've been part of this and I have to, I'm so excited.
01:56:20.180
We're going to get rid of war because we have now tied our economic system so tightly together
01:56:32.280
Um, we'll use, uh, economic sanctions and both sides will pay a price and there won't be any
01:56:45.220
Um, and so the changes that Donald Trump is making, he's going back to the Bretton Woods
01:56:51.280
stuff and he's saying, look, that was for that era that doesn't work anymore.
01:56:57.860
You know, when you look at Carol Quig, uh, um, he'll be, I can't remember his last name.
01:57:02.660
Um, but when you, when you look at what he wrote, that was basically putting the state department
01:57:08.740
as the boss of the department of defense, they would do work, the department of fence and
01:57:15.360
the soldiers would start doing work to, you know, democratize the world and bring peace
01:57:23.700
And in the little that I heard Hegseth do today, it sounds to me that this is the next
01:57:32.300
massive step in what Donald Trump is going to be remembered for.
01:57:40.240
He is resetting the entire structure of the world, completely redoing it.
01:57:46.620
And he's doing it not just, you know, with our foreign policy, he's now doing it inside
01:57:56.000
And he's making those changes in the department of war, um, to say, look, this is what we do.
01:58:07.660
If I wanted to have peace, I'm going to go someplace else.
01:58:11.000
If somebody wants to, you know, have war with us, we're going to kill them quickly.
01:58:15.200
And we're going to say it was not going on for 20 years.
01:58:17.440
It's going to last in 18 months and it's over and it will be decisive.
01:58:21.100
That's a whole change to the entire global system.
01:58:26.920
It's why they hate him so much at the United Nations.
01:58:31.140
What you're talking about was echoed by geopolitical analysts all over the world.
01:58:35.000
I think his name was Francis Fukushima who wrote the, what was it?
01:58:38.840
The end of history, um, talked about that as being, you know, we're done, you know, all
01:58:44.540
Just like you said, kind of putting the state department and other organizations that are
01:58:49.640
Um, one of the crazy things is one of his students, Samuel Huntington wrote a, uh, kind
01:58:57.620
And said, uh, he wrote a clash of civilizations, which basically said, no, no, no, no, no.
01:59:01.660
We need to be very careful because future wars will be civilizational.
01:59:07.500
Exactly what he predicted is what we're headed for clash of civilizations.
01:59:12.540
Look at Europe, look at the United States right now.
01:59:14.880
Look at, look how war is being waged on us and we're not even concentrated on it.
01:59:18.860
And the president pretty much addressed that as you pointed out where he was like for far
01:59:24.280
too long, we've been focused on, you know, providing trillions of dollars, focusing on
01:59:31.820
He says, we shouldn't even be out and doing some of these things.
01:59:34.860
He said, look, we need to look at our own hemisphere.
01:59:36.980
Again, this is something that we pointed out yesterday that we were hoping they would
01:59:43.780
Um, this is a complete different realignment of what the threats are against the United
01:59:48.520
States and addressing them and being prepared to combat them.
01:59:52.940
And I tell you, I'm, I still got goosebumps from the entire thing.
01:59:56.880
I now see why they decided to call all of them in and do that.
01:59:59.640
I mean, not only is the military on notice, I think the military is relieved, but now our enemies
02:00:08.020
The secretary of war, Pete Hegseth said that, uh, to our, he actually turned to the camera
02:00:12.360
and addressed, uh, our enemies and he goes in to our enemies.
02:00:15.520
And he said the acronym F A F O. And then that's when everyone's that, that was the point
02:00:23.240
And he goes, if you need help with translating that, just ask a few of your, uh, enlisted guys.
02:00:27.200
But I was like, yeah, it's, it's on, it's on, uh, is the president also said yesterday that
02:00:36.340
they were going to be looking at new technology.
02:00:43.940
So vaguely they, they talked about, uh, new directions that they need to be going in.
02:00:48.200
Um, they did, he was very vague with it, but he also mentioned another follow on speech
02:00:53.080
on some of the things that they're, they're going to be focused on.
02:00:58.080
But I think we're going to be getting more details on that, but not only new technology,
02:01:02.120
but how we're going to manufacture them and how we're going to, uh, supply, uh, the manufacturing
02:01:10.340
And it's all going to be, it sounds like homegrown so that we're not reliant upon other countries.
02:01:15.740
I mean, they, they included everything in this speech, Glenn.
02:01:20.920
I mean, I'm not a military guy, but I have to tell you.
02:01:25.580
When I hear stuff like that, I'm like, finally, finally somebody is to, because we all know
02:01:46.760
You could get, you could get 10 citizens pulled randomly and you could pull them out as long
02:01:54.000
Just pull them out of their jobs and say, Hey, this or that, this or that, this or that.
02:02:01.800
Nobody is going to say they want sex changes for frogs, you know, studied in Africa.
02:02:11.800
And it's so nice to see common sense play a role because it, it hasn't in a very, very
02:02:21.360
By the way, uh, tomorrow I'm going to talk a little bit about digital ID.
02:02:24.300
Uh, and I, I want to take you to India, uh, on digital ID and show you what happened there.
02:02:31.220
I mean, this is a real threat to America and to freedom all over the world.
02:02:41.540
Uh, now, uh, it's coming to the West and it already came to China.
02:02:48.000
China, not Japan, Australia, Switzerland just voted on it.
02:02:59.100
And again, it's not about anything other than complete control.
02:03:04.220
And, uh, we'll show you all about that, uh, on tomorrow's broadcast, Jason, thank you so
02:03:12.320
So let me talk to you a little bit about your gutters.
02:03:14.320
You know, the funny thing is you never think about your gutters until they're a problem.
02:03:18.380
The water's overflowing, the landscaping's flooded, the foundations taking damage.
02:03:22.760
And you're on a ladder at seven in the morning, pulling out rotted leaves by hand, wondering
02:03:26.700
why nobody warned you that home ownership came with an annual debt defying circus act

Let me, uh, take JD Vance here on the coming shutdown of the government today.
02:04:58.220
We just had a very frank conversation with the Senate and House Democratic leadership.
02:05:02.460
Look, the principle at stake here is very simple.
02:05:04.720
We have disagreements about tax policy, but you don't shut the government down.
02:05:08.020
We have disagreements about healthcare policy, but you don't shut the government down.
02:05:10.900
You don't use your policy disagreements as leverage to not pay our troops, to not have
02:05:16.520
essential services of government actually function.
02:05:19.300
You don't say the fact that you disagree about a particular tax provision is an excuse
02:05:22.960
for shutting down the people's government and all the essential services that come along
02:05:27.780
If you look at what Chuck Schumer has said in the past consistently, it's whatever our
02:05:34.740
Let's figure out a bipartisan solution, but you don't shut the government down.
02:05:38.740
In other words, you don't put a gun to the American people's head and say, unless you
02:05:41.900
do exactly what Senate and House Democrats want you to do, we're going to shut down your
02:05:46.960
That's exactly what they're proposing out there.
02:05:49.180
Now we have to remember, they're, they're very frustrated.
02:05:51.320
They say that they're very frustrated about the fact that this negotiation has not taken
02:05:56.120
But if you look at the original, uh, the original thing they did with this negotiation, it was
02:06:00.760
a $1.5 trillion spending package, basically saying to the American people, we want to give
02:06:05.500
massive amounts of money, hundreds of billions of dollars to illegal aliens for their health
02:06:09.840
care while Americans are struggling to pay their health care bills.
02:06:12.940
That was their initial foray into this negotiation.
02:06:18.820
And now they come in here saying that if you don't give us everything that we, you, that
02:06:23.240
we want, we're going to shut down the government.
02:06:28.200
And we think the American people are going to suffer because these guys won't do the right
02:06:34.420
You will hear a lot from Senate Democrats, from House Democrats about the fact that American
02:06:40.240
Well, we know that American health care policy is broken.
02:06:42.620
We've been trying to fix it for the eight months that we've been in office, but every
02:06:46.240
single thing that they accuse about being broken about American health care is policy that
02:06:53.500
So if they want to talk about how to fix American health care policy, let's do it.
02:06:58.440
The Senate majority leader would love to do it.
02:06:59.960
Let's work on it together, but let's do it in the context of an open government that's
02:07:04.580
providing essential services to the American people.
02:07:08.860
And the fact that they refuse to do that shows how unreasonable their position is.
02:07:12.760
I think we're headed to a shutdown because the Democrats won't do the right thing.
02:07:16.300
I hope they change their mind, but we're going to see.
