1:37

All right, we begin in just a

1:39

moment. The

2:31

fusion of entertainment

2:34

and enlightenment. This

2:36

is the

2:38

Glenbeck Program. Hello,

2:41

America. We take on the courts

2:43

in 60 seconds. First, here you are.

2:46

You are here, and that alone

2:48

is a true miracle. In Solves,

2:50

it tells us that God knit

2:52

us together while we were in our

2:54

mother's womb. He saw you before

2:56

you took your first breath, before the

2:58

world knew your name, he knew

3:00

your purpose. You may have

3:02

planned, you may have been planned by

3:04

your mom and your dad, or

3:06

not, I don't know. But you

3:08

were never an accident, that's for

3:10

sure, because life is never an

3:12

accident. The Ministry of Preborn believes

3:14

that every life born and unborn

3:16

is sacred, made in the image

3:18

of God, filled with beauty and

3:21

the eternal. Right now, there are

3:23

children whose hearts beat in the

3:25

darkness, and their moms are still

3:27

trying to decide, is that a

3:29

baby or not? Their lives are

3:31

in the balance. Last year alone,

3:33

pre -born, the network clinics helped

3:35

rescue over 67 ,000 babies from abortion,

3:37

often through a single, life -changing

3:39

ultrasound. $28 sponsors that

3:41

moment. $28. Would you consider

3:43

a leadership gift today? $28

3:45

or a leadership gift, your

3:47

tax -deductible donation of $15 ,000

3:49

4:10

4:14

4:17

everything is just they exploded in

4:19

my throat yesterday And so

4:21

I'm not sure how long my

4:23

voice will last and I have to

4:25

save it because I'm meeting with

4:27

the president a Little later on this

4:29

afternoon. I'm gonna spend a couple

4:31

of hours with him and that show

4:33

will broadcast tonight at 9 p .m.

4:35

On Blaze, so Just stick with

4:37

me. All right, let me let's start

4:39

here with the POTUS I mean

4:42

with the SCOTUS The battle

4:44

for the kid, the soul of

4:46

our children, began yesterday in the

4:48

Supreme Court. The case involves

4:50

a group of parents suing the

4:52

largest school district in Maryland for

4:54

their right to withdraw their children

4:56

from classes on days that books

4:58

with gay and transgender characters themes

5:00

are discussed. The parents

5:02

are suing on religious freedom grounds. In

5:06

2022, Montgomery County

5:08

Public Schools added LGBTQ -themed

5:10

books to their curriculum for

5:12

students from pre -K through

5:14

the fifth grade. The

5:16

books include things like Pride Puppy,

5:18

an alphabet book about a family

5:20

whose puppy gets lost at a

5:22

Pride parade, Love and

5:24

Violet, about a girl who has a

5:27

crush on her female classmate. These

5:29

are pre -K to fifth grade, and

5:31

Born Ready, about a transgender

5:33

boy. Again, these

5:35

books added to pre -K to

5:38

fifth grade. This new curriculum

5:40

is DEI for elementary children.

5:43

Now, at first, the Maryland School

5:45

District allowed or alerted parents when the

5:47

storybooks were going to be used in

5:49

class and allowed them to have their

5:51

children excused from the sessions. But

5:53

the district has sent stop.

5:56

giving both advanced notice and an

5:58

opt -out policy saying it's too

6:00

hard to administer. I mean,

6:02

geez, it's really, really. And

6:04

it leads to lots of absences

6:06

and stigmatizes some kids. I

6:09

want you to know this

6:11

case is not about a few

6:13

storybooks, a few colorful, you

6:15

know, pictures of little puppies getting

6:18

lost. It's about whether you,

6:20

as a parent, still have a

6:22

God -given right to raise your

6:24

children. according to your faith

6:26

and your values and your common

6:28

sense. Do you have the

6:31

right? Because if the

6:33

Supreme Court says no, you

6:35

don't have that right anymore. If

6:37

the First Amendment Free

6:40

Exercise Clause doesn't protect this,

6:43

your right as a parent, then

6:46

what are all our rights even

6:48

for? If we don't have a

6:50

right as a parent to parent

6:52

our children, None of the

6:54

rights really even matter. Now

6:56

the parents who are suing insisted these

6:58

books, quote, promote one -sided

7:01

transgender ideology, encourage

7:03

gender transitioning, and focus

7:05

excessively on romantic

7:07

infatuation. By the way,

7:09

the parents are not seeking to

7:11

remove the books from classrooms or

7:13

the children's libraries. They just

7:16

don't want their children to have to sit

7:18

through these indoctrination sessions. Oh, that's not

7:20

good enough. You will

7:22

comply. That's what

7:24

it's all about. They're

7:28

not trying to erase anyone's

7:31

story. They just

7:33

want to not comply. They

7:36

want to shield their children

7:38

from ideas that contradict their

7:40

faith. What is the

7:43

First Amendment really all about?

7:45

Sounds reasonable. Sounds like basic parenting

7:47

101. First amendment

7:49

is clear. You cannot burden someone's

7:51

free exercise of religion, forcing

7:53

kids to engage with ideas that

7:55

violate their family's deeply held

7:57

beliefs. That is clearly, clearly

8:00

a burden. Religious

8:02

liberty is in the first

8:04

amendment. It is not a

8:06

second class right. It is

8:09

a first class right. Besides,

8:12

this is basic common sense, or

8:14

at least used to be. Parents

8:16

have the right to guide their

8:18

kids on any sensitive topic, like sex,

8:21

sexuality, or yes,

8:23

even gender. It's not the

8:25

school's job. It's

8:27

your job, period. Now

8:29

this should be a slam dunk for the parents,

8:31

but I don't even know. I mean,

8:33

if the Supreme Court doesn't see that, parents

8:35

won't just be losing this case. We'll

8:38

be losing even more

8:40

freedom to raise our own

8:42

kids. This one is

8:44

a very, very... deep red

8:46

crimson line in the

8:48

sand that the Supreme Court

8:50

cannot cross. But

8:52

we'll see. Apparently yesterday, did you hear

8:55

any of the arguments, Stu? Yeah,

8:57

I read about them. It

8:59

definitely seemed like the conservative

9:01

justices were a bit

9:03

skeptical of the idea that

9:05

you get to force

9:07

parents to keep their kids

9:09

in these classes, even

9:12

if they oppose it. when

9:14

you're reading these books. But,

9:16

you know, of course, you never know. We've seen

9:18

crazy things happen in the Supreme Court

9:20

before. What's fascinating to

9:22

me is, and what's the motivation here, Glenn,

9:25

you tell me, if you're

9:27

going to have one of these

9:29

situations where you have these books and

9:31

as you point out, they are

9:33

not like Okay, there happens to be

9:35

a gay character in a book

9:37

about something else. Like it is like

9:39

straight out like books about why

9:41

you should think these lifestyles and choices

9:44

are okay, right? Like it is

9:46

straight out what they're doing to pre

9:48

-k to fifth graders. So really, really

9:50

young. This is not like, you

9:52

know, some of these situations they like to push

9:54

out there like, oh, you don't want high schoolers to

9:56

read these books. It's not even what they're talking

9:58

about. And What

10:01

could be the motivation of

10:03

not allowing parents to opt

10:05

their kids out here? They

10:07

did offer that, as you

10:09

noted, they did offer that

10:11

the first year that these

10:13

a hassle. It's a hassle.

10:15

I love that. There's no

10:17

innocuous explanation for this. Right.

10:20

It's just we want your

10:22

kids to believe these things.

10:24

Therefore, we will force them

10:26

to stay in class. What

10:28

do you mean? It's hard to administer. There's

10:31

all sorts of things that would allow, that

10:33

you'd allow kids to leave class for.

10:36

It's not hard to administer a

10:38

kid walking out and doing something

10:40

else, learning something different. What's

10:43

the motivation? What's the innocuous tale

10:45

here, Glenn? There is none. There is

10:47

none. You go back to the

10:50

Bible. Remember Sodom and Gomorrah and, you

10:52

know, the angels come into town.

10:54

They're looking just for one person. Just

10:56

what can we find one person? And

10:59

they go in

11:02

and they find one.

11:05

They find one and he sees the angels

11:07

and he's like, come on, come on, get

11:09

in the house, get in the house. And

11:11

he gets them into the house and, you

11:13

know, like you're not safe out there. And

11:15

then they start beating on the door.

11:17

hey let us in we saw these

11:20

two guys we saw these two guys

11:22

uh and uh you need to you

11:24

need to bring them out here the

11:26

answer was no no no i tell

11:28

you i'll give you my daughter just

11:30

not these guys now i found that

11:32

a little you know that's when the

11:34

angels should have went you know i

11:36

don't know if we found the right

11:38

guy here but it was a different

11:40

time we'll give you our daughter first

11:42

give you our daughter just leave them

11:44

alone no no You

11:47

had to comply. If

11:49

you were coming in

11:51

to the city, you

11:53

must comply. They wanted

11:55

to sodomize the angels. No,

11:58

thank you. No, I'm, you know,

12:00

I'm all sodomy. I'm all I'm doctor

12:02

says I'm getting too much sodomy. So

12:05

that is what's happening again. This

12:07

this even if you don't believe in

12:10

angels or you don't believe in

12:12

the story of the Bible, this is

12:14

a very good parable. I am

12:16

going to believe it, but it's a

12:18

very good parable on what was

12:20

going on. Let's just look

12:22

at the Bible and just saying, what was the

12:25

general thing? You could describe it any way you

12:27

want, but what was generally going on? The

12:29

city had been taken over

12:31

by just absolute degenerates and

12:33

sodomy had become such a

12:35

big deal. You know, they

12:37

actually taught my daughter in

12:39

a Catholic school at Fordham

12:41

University. They taught my daughter

12:43

that the sodomy Sodomy

12:46

Dad was just their way of

12:48

greeting people. You

12:50

had a Catholic school teach you that?

12:52

That Sodomy wasn't bad. It was just

12:54

the way they greeted people. Hey, drop

12:57

your pants. I want to greet you. That's

12:59

ridiculous. Absolutely

13:02

ridiculous. But

13:04

that's just the way it was. Well,

13:06

you know what? I don't want to live in a city where they

13:08

drop their pants to greet you. I just

13:10

don't. I think that's probably

13:13

wrong. Speak for yourself. You know

13:15

even if that was even

13:17

lots of people you have to

13:19

understand you can't opt out

13:21

of it You need to make

13:23

sure that you're you're participating

13:26

in the traditional greetings of that

13:28

society This this is this

13:30

is a this is a philosophy

13:32

that has no forgiveness and

13:34

You're either on board or you're

13:36

not You're either 100 % in

13:39

or you're you're an outcast

13:41

and you will comply. This

13:43

is this is what the the

13:45

left just doesn't understand. I shouldn't

13:47

say the left understands this. The

13:49

average Democrat doesn't understand. They think

13:51

because the average Democrat, I think,

13:53

is still kind of thinking, well,

13:56

you know, I mean, I don't like all that,

13:58

but I want to be tolerant. There

14:00

is no tolerance with this.

14:02

There's none. And this should

14:04

show you there is no

14:06

reason to force these parents

14:09

or force these kids to

14:11

go against their parents' teaching

14:13

other than you will participate. You

14:16

will comply. That's

14:18

all there is. Yeah, I love to.

14:21

One of their outs on this from

14:23

the left is basically to say, look,

14:25

if you want, if you don't want

14:27

your kids to learn this stuff, then

14:29

you should homeschool or put your kids

14:31

in Christian schools. Now, of course, it's

14:33

it's actually Christians, Jews and Muslims, one

14:35

of the lead defendants

14:37

here, is a Muslim actually, is

14:39

trying to pull their kids out of

14:41

this, and they have. Which

14:43

is a fascinating argument from the

14:45

left, considering how hard they fought

14:47

against school choice all this time.

14:50

They have tried to prevent it, they've

14:53

tried to prevent the rights for you

14:55

to educate your own kids, and they're

14:57

trying to force you to pay for

14:59

that education, not once but twice. That's

15:02

their answer. Like, if you don't want

15:04

to learn what we're teaching you, then you

15:06

get to pay twice as much for

15:08

an education going to get outside of these

15:10

walls. I

15:13

will tell you that I talked

15:15

to some people over the last couple

15:17

of days up here, some of

15:19

them with the Department of Education, and

15:21

they are thrilled to dismantle that

15:23

thing. They are very very

15:26

excited to dismantle the Department of

15:28

Education. They're on the inside and they're

15:30

like it's freaking them out and

15:32

it is we're shutting this thing down.

15:35

And it couldn't be more exhilarating quite

15:38

honestly. I mean, tell me what

15:40

the Department of Education has done. Look

15:42

at how they are. They're taking

15:44

on private schools and they're saying you

15:46

don't have a right to private

15:48

education or you have a right but

15:51

we're not going to we're not

15:53

going to give you any vouchers. We're

15:55

not going to spend any and

15:57

look at what we're spending money on

15:59

a system that is getting worse

16:01

and worse and worse and we're trapping

16:03

our children into uh into slavery

16:06

if your kids can't read i mean

16:08

go back to the 1800s do

16:10

you know that it was i believe

16:12

it was the death penalty to

16:14

teach someone a slave how to read

16:16

did you know that It

16:19

was a crime of the highest

16:21

order to teach a slave to read. Why?

16:25

Because if they can read, they can

16:27

think. If they can think, they're

16:29

no longer going to be a slave.

16:32

That's why. So this

16:34

progressive, these people have

16:36

hated, have hated the

16:38

African American forever. It's

16:41

the same people that started the

16:43

Klan. It's the progressive movement

16:45

that tried to wipe out every

16:47

black with Planned Parenthood and they're

16:49

still doing it and getting away

16:51

with it. Is there

16:53

a reason why all of the abortion

16:55

clinics happen to fall in the black

16:57

zip codes? Is there a reason

16:59

that that's where most of them are? Gee,

17:02

I don't know. They're

17:05

still doing it. They were the ones

17:07

that were over in Germany telling you how

17:09

to get rid of the Jews. Yes,

17:12

that was an American thing.

17:14

Not a German thing that

17:16

was us My gosh these

17:18

people have hated and hated

17:20

and hated and then the

17:22

guy Johnson Who stopped the

17:24

civil rights movement? He stopped

17:26

the Civil Rights Act in

17:29

1959 He was the guy

17:31

who stopped it then just

17:33

four or five years later.

17:35

He signs it in and

17:37

he's proud to do it.

17:39

And then he signs the

17:41

great, what do you call

17:43

it, the great society bills.

17:46

So we have a great society that's gonna

17:48

help the black man and what does

17:50

it do? It tears their families apart. It

17:52

drives them further into poverty. It

17:55

miseducates their children so they're

17:57

just nincompoops. And then by the

17:59

way, white people are nincompoops

18:01

as well because we get the

18:03

same damn education. Who

18:05

is this hurt? This is

18:07

hurt the black man more than

18:10

the white man and These

18:12

people they still get away with

18:14

it now ask yourself a

18:16

question if if you're paying taxes

18:18

and this is your country Why

18:22

the hell can't you say I'm

18:24

not educating my kid there and I'm

18:26

not paying you for that education

18:28

because I think that education is Evil

18:30

I think that education is so

18:32

evil because look what it's doing to

18:35

our kids. It's teaching them that

18:37

they should be slaves It's not teaching

18:39

them how to think it's teaching

18:41

them what you want them to think

18:43

No, not gonna do it anymore.

20:17

on our way to the on my

20:19

way to the White House I hear

20:21

in a couple of hours and I

20:23

would be with the president today I'd

20:25

love to hear what you Are interested

20:27

in I'd love to ask a few

20:29

questions that are directed by you I've

20:31

been working on these questions for the

20:33

president here for the last about week

20:35

But I'd love to hear from you

20:37

eight at eight seven two seven be

20:40

eck. What is it that you are

20:42

most interested in hearing? Asked

20:44

of the president It's

20:49

so interesting asking the president questions because

20:51

I remember I was in the Oval Office

20:53

with George W. Bush and he was

20:56

he was not happy and I had questioned,

20:58

you know, what is happening to the

21:00

what's what's happening in the war as a

21:02

president and I had just got on

21:04

the air and I don't remember what I

21:06

said to piss him off but I

21:08

said something and I said that's not the

21:10

way the president behaves. And so he

21:12

calls me in the office and I'm sitting

21:14

there and he says, you know, a

21:16

lot of people think they know exactly how

21:18

I'd just like to be the president.

21:20

They have no idea what it's like to

21:22

be the president in the United States.

21:25

You don't know what I'm dealing with. And

21:27

and in some ways it was true.

21:29

I mean, it's no excuse. You have to

21:31

be better at it than anybody else.

21:33

But the president can't answer certain things like

21:35

I really I really want to know. Can

21:39

this be saved? Can

21:41

this be saved? Because

21:43

we are looking at

21:45

such economic we're

21:47

looking into the abyss

21:49

into the abyss

21:51

and And I don't

21:53

think the American

21:55

people really understand that

21:57

and it's going

21:59

to take all of

22:01

us understanding it

22:03

and then choosing Okay,

22:06

I'll take the hard road. I'll take

22:08

the hard medicine now. Used to be able,

22:10

in the old days, you know, FDR could get on

22:12

and say, look, this is going to be hard.

22:15

This is going to be a slog, but I'll take

22:17

it on for my generation so our children don't

22:19

have to deal with it. I'm not

22:21

sure that people are, I think they're willing

22:23

to do it, but there will always be somebody

22:25

on the outside that says, that's not necessary.

22:27

You don't have to do that. You can do

22:29

it all. You can have it all. No,

22:31

no, no, no, no. You don't understand.

22:33

We'll put your Social Security over here

22:35

in a lockbox, and people will want

22:37

to believe the easy road. So

22:40

I've been wrestling with questions on,

22:42

you know, how to make it

22:45

easy for the president to tell

22:47

the real truth on the economy,

22:49

which I think he does, but

22:51

I don't think enough people hear

22:53

it. That, as he says, it's

22:55

going to be a bumpy ride.

22:57

Yeah, it's going to be a

22:59

lot more than a bumpy ride.

23:01

It's going to be a tough,

23:03

tough slog. But we

23:05

have to do it. This interview, by the way,

23:07

will air tonight, 9 p

23:09

.m. Eastern, only on

23:12

Blaze TV. This

23:14

23:17

Wow, that's so amazing, because

23:19

I am Glenn Beck. That's so weird. You

23:22

never realize how dependent you really are on

23:24

the power that's supplied by the grid until the

23:26

grid is down. That's when

23:28

the thought hits, wow, I should have

23:30

had a generator. That's

23:33

why I want you to check out

23:35

the Grid Doctor 3300. Generators are really,

23:37

really expensive, but you usually don't need

23:39

one, but this one is solar powered,

23:41

so you're not scrambling for gas cans

23:43

or dealing with a roar of an

23:45

engineer driveway. It's quiet, it's clean, it's

23:47

safe to use inside your house even.

23:50

This is the generator for people who want

23:52

something practical, portable, and built for a

23:54

world we actually live in where blackouts are

23:56

more common and infrastructure is more powerful.

23:58

This is something you could put your fridge

24:00

or your freezer on. So,

24:02

you know, all the meat doesn't go bad. If

24:04

you want real peace of mind,

24:06

something you'll actually use, go to mypatriotsupply.com.

24:09

Look at the Grid Doctor 3300.

24:11

You'll be glad you did. It's quiet,

24:13

fume -free, safe to use indoors

24:15

and out, totally portable. In

24:18

a world where the grid's becoming less and

24:20

less reliable by the day, Grid Doctor 3300

24:22

will give you peace of mind and practical,

24:25

everyday use. Yet yours

dealing with Joe Biden anymore. No. Yeah,

25:53

excuse me. Let it ride. Let's

25:56

see what he says. You

25:59

know, I have a lot of things to

26:01

talk to him about like one thing that I

26:03

would like to see you

26:05

know, that I don't see anybody

26:07

talking about. You know,

26:09

the president is changing the economy. He

26:11

is changing, he's getting away

26:13

from this World War II nightmare

26:15

that, you know, might have

26:18

been right for, you know, 1948,

26:20

but it's certainly not right for today, where

26:23

we were taking care of Europe, we were

26:25

giving them all kinds of special breaks, we were

26:27

paying for their defense, yada, yada, yada, yada. Instead,

26:32

Now America needs to take care of

26:34

herself and we all need to

26:36

be self -sufficient. Well, you know,

26:38

we're talking about AI a lot, but

26:40

what people are not talking about or

26:42

something that Eric Schmidt came to the

26:44

White House, sorry to the Capitol Hill

26:46

and testified a couple of days ago,

26:48

about the power usage. We

26:50

have a significant problem with

26:53

power. Now I want you

26:55

to understand, everyone will

26:57

tell you We cannot lose

26:59

the race for AI. Have

27:01

you heard anyone say anything other

27:03

than that, Stu? No.

27:05

Anyone who talks about it says we

27:08

can't just let China or someone else

27:10

win it. It's

27:12

100 % universal. We

27:14

must, must

27:17

win. Okay. So

27:20

where are we going to

27:23

get all the power? Here's

27:25

what Eric said, many people

27:27

should project demand for our

27:29

industry will go from 3%,

27:31

3 % of total energy

27:33

production right now. We're at

27:36

3 % for all of our

27:38

server farms and everything else

27:40

for Silicon Valley uses 3%.

27:42

He says it's going to

27:44

go from 3 % to

27:47

99 % of all energy usage

27:49

in the next three years.

27:52

An additional 29 gigawatts

27:54

by 2027 and

27:56

67 more gigawatts by

27:59

2030. He

28:01

is now saying that we

28:03

have to build hundreds of

28:05

nuclear power plants. He

28:08

said there are some plants

28:10

that they will require. Most

28:12

plants will require one nuclear

28:14

power plant per server farm.

28:18

Some of them may require

28:20

up to three nuclear

28:22

power plants per server farm.

28:26

So this is really good in

28:28

one way, because we will have

28:30

the electricity that we need, assuming

28:32

we start to build these things

28:34

quickly. I mean, what's going to

28:36

happen, Stu? It takes 25 years

28:38

to build a nuclear power plant. How

28:41

is it we're expected at all

28:43

to compete? We have

28:45

dismantled our we've dismantled our

28:48

coal fire plants all over the

28:50

country We are still not

28:52

digging up coal and and fuel

28:54

as much as we need

28:56

to we need to be open

28:58

and Open valves on absolutely

29:00

everything. That's something that Eric Schmidt

29:03

said yesterday, too. Now remember

29:05

this is Silicon Valley guy I'm

29:07

sure he was green green

29:09

green for a long time, but

29:11

now he's saying we need

29:13

absolutely every source of energy because

29:16

We are going to need

29:18

99 % by 2027. 2027.

29:23

What do you think your power price

29:26

is going to be? What

29:28

do you think about rolling blackouts

29:30

and brownouts? We

29:33

have got to be and this would create

29:35

so many jobs, so

29:37

many jobs, good paying jobs,

29:39

going out and building all these

29:41

nuclear power plants. Is this

29:43

an opportunity for Trump and the

29:45

Trump administration? I mean,

29:47

because it feels also like talking about

29:49

positives going on offense rather than

29:52

being on defense. There's been a lot

29:54

of defense talk lately and going

29:56

on offense and saying, hey, we can

29:58

be the best place for your

30:00

company to exist because we're going to

30:02

be the only place on earth

30:05

that has the power it needs. Yep.

30:07

Yep. The only other country that is doing it

30:09

is China and they're building them like crazy. This

30:12

is something that we

30:15

have Donald Trump could

30:17

surpass FDR in power

30:19

generation. Remember, most people

30:21

in 1919 in Woodrow

30:24

Wilson, I think 1

30:26

% of the population

30:28

had a refrigerator by

30:30

1930. I

30:32

think that number was

30:34

like 80 % had refrigeration

30:37

when when

30:39

FDR came in, the only places it

30:41

didn't have stuff was there was no

30:43

electricity in these small little rural towns.

30:46

So he went and he started

30:48

building power plants and dams and everything

30:50

else to generate all the power

30:52

and then started laying power lines.

30:54

This is something that Donald Trump could

30:56

do and it is time. I

30:59

mean our grid hasn't really been updated

31:01

since FDR. We're

31:03

still using the same stuff

31:05

and you know a lot of

31:07

it is just out so

31:09

outdated and so bad Our our

31:11

grid is so incredibly unstable

31:13

and not built for what's coming

31:16

next and I just don't

31:18

know how he's gonna get it

31:20

done But he this is

31:22

a big win for him big

31:24

win for him. You know,

31:26

you know how many jobs would

31:28

be created if we introduced

31:30

and said, we have to build them

31:32

in the next three years. It

31:36

would be enormous, enormous

31:39

and exciting.

31:42

Yeah. Yeah. Exciting. I mean, you know,

31:44

look, having power

31:46

is the basis of civilization.

31:49

This is not a, it's not a small

31:51

little thing. I mean, it really is. One

31:54

of the foundational elements you need for

31:56

a modern civilization. And we sit here

31:58

and we talk about all the things

32:00

we can't do. All the

32:02

natural resources that we have,

32:04

we can't utilize. All the

32:06

things that we need to stop, right?

32:08

We need to stop making gas -powered

32:10

cars. We need to stop getting

32:12

our own coal and using it. We

32:14

need to stop building nuclear plants. This

32:17

is a way of saying, no, we're on offense.

32:19

We're America. You know, the left is

32:21

trying to, right now, they're in the middle of

32:23

a rebrand and one of their, you know, as

32:26

we talked about last hour, they're still seemingly

32:28

stuck in a lot of these crazy woke

32:30

things that burned them last time. Hopefully, they

32:32

stick with those forever. But

32:34

one of the proposals being floated around

32:36

on the left is this idea

32:38

of abundance. That's the name

32:40

of the book that kind of

32:43

lays these concepts out. And it's

32:45

an idea of trying to take

32:47

away what the right has always

32:49

had, which is this idea of

32:51

saying, hey, we're looking to grow.

32:53

We want better things. We want

32:55

the Americans to have a better,

32:57

more fruitful, more wealthy, more having

32:59

more. And we'll decide what we

33:01

want to do when we have more. And

33:03

the left was always saying, hey, no, we need

33:05

to restrict. We need to calm that down.

33:07

You don't need all of this. You don't need

33:09

the bigger house. You don't need the bigger

33:11

car. And that's not the fundamental number one thing

33:13

we should care about. about, but it was

33:15

always there for us to say, hey, all these

33:17

shelves are stocked. Everything you need is

33:20

right there. You make the decisions on what you want. You'll

33:22

make the decisions and prioritize on what you're going to

33:24

spend your money on and what you're going to spend your

33:26

time on. And the left is trying to take that

33:28

back right now. They're seeing an opportunity

33:30

because of a lot of people on the

33:32

right who are saying, no, actually, maybe we

33:34

shouldn't have those things available. Maybe you don't

33:36

need them. And I'm

33:38

nervous if they decide to go

33:40

down this road. There is

33:42

a real vulnerability to the conservative

33:45

movement if the left takes that away

33:47

from us and they want to. State

33:52

it again more succinctly.

33:54

Your concern again? My

33:57

concern is, and this is a real thing

33:59

being talked about on the left in sort

34:01

of their higher level academic circles, is

34:04

the approach to say, to take away

34:06

that, I don't know, it was a,

34:08

I would say, Pretty

34:10

consistent with that Reagan optimism, right?

34:12

The shining city on the hill.

34:15

The idea that we can do it. We

34:17

can do it. We can accomplish all

34:19

these incredible things, not through government, but

34:21

through you. You can do it. We'll have

34:23

all these things. And you should expect

34:25

from your country an abundance, not

34:28

a scarcity. I'm trying

34:30

to figure out where you've seen that

34:32

on the left. I mean, there's

34:34

a major bestseller that just came out

34:36

called Abundance. That was

34:38

the that and it was from

34:40

the left. It was from two

34:42

guys on the left and I

34:44

don't know that they'll win I

34:46

mean, but you know as recline

34:49

and Derek Thompson. They're pretty well -known

34:51

It's really hard to that's really

34:53

hard to sell I know look

34:55

at Barack Obama. He's got how

34:57

many houses three? Where he's building

34:59

a seawall around one of his

35:01

houses where you can't build seawalls

35:03

in Hawaii But he's building a

35:05

seawall around one of them That's

35:07

his part -time house his other

35:09

part -time houses in Nantucket one foot

35:12

above sea level one count them

35:14

one foot Above sea level and

35:16

he's got a third house someplace

35:18

else. I think it's here in

35:20

Washington and He's always

35:22

talking about hey, you know, there's

35:24

there comes a time when enough

35:26

is enough and you have too

35:28

much When is that Barak because

35:31

you're telling us that we shouldn't

35:33

have an SUV you've got three

35:35

houses See this whole abundance thing

35:37

has never been aimed at them

35:39

It's always been aimed at us.

35:42

They believe in abundance only for

35:44

the right people the right people

35:46

get it And

35:48

that's that is the biggest difference in

35:50

abundance is they've been saying that we

35:53

all have to You know pinch back,

35:55

but they don't actually mean it You

35:57

know at least at least the Republicans

35:59

are like yeah, I'm corrupt as hell

36:01

and making all kinds of money on

36:03

the side, but you can too It's

36:05

just crazy. Yeah, no, I agree. I

36:07

think look they've never actually believed any

36:10

of these things, right? But like what

36:12

was their approach for it forever? We've

36:14

heard the approach of hey Your

36:16

TVs are too big. Your

36:19

cars, they're too, they have too

36:21

much of what you need. The SUVs

36:23

are too large. Your homes are

36:25

too large. You don't need that air

36:27

conditioning. You should turn it to

36:29

72 degrees. Now, I can bet you

36:31

at neither Martha's Vineyard or in

36:33

Hawaii, Barack Obama never had his house

36:35

set to some uncomfortable temperature he

36:38

didn't like. Well, he might have because...

36:40

right on the ocean, and you

36:42

get that lovely ocean breeze that most

36:44

of us don't get. That's true,

36:46

that's true. But I mean, that was,

36:48

it was always something that they

36:50

tried to implement on the people, right?

36:52

It was always, we get what

36:54

we want, but you need to sacrifice

36:56

for the greater good. And

36:58

that's a thing that just doesn't

37:01

connect exactly with the American people,

37:03

not because they're not charitable, because they

37:05

are. They want to do good

37:07

things for other people, but they

37:09

will come together and do incredible accomplished

37:12

incredible things, which they have done. But

37:14

it was always this idea that you would

37:16

be able to, it was part of

37:18

the American deal, right? We do these things,

37:20

we work hard, maybe we work harder,

37:22

maybe we work more hours, maybe we put

37:24

up with more crap, but with the

37:27

idea that we can shape our own future.

37:29

the left is trying to take that

37:31

messaging back. Now, I'm with you in

37:33

that I am not confident that viewpoint

37:35

will win out on the left because

37:37

there's a bunch of insane people, but

37:39

it is a vulnerability of the right

37:42

if we go down this road of

37:44

trying to encourage the same type of

37:46

scarcity talk that the left has been

37:48

engaging in. Okay, okay, so let's take

37:50

that. Next hour, I want to tell

37:52

you a story that fits right in

37:54

here on what the leftists are doing

37:56

now in San Francisco. because it's very

37:58

similar to what you're talking about. And

38:00

this morning when I read it, I

38:02

was like, that'll never work, but maybe

38:04

you're right. Maybe it will.

38:06

I don't know, but it's insane. We'll

38:09

talk about that and so much more coming

38:11

up. Don't forget President Trump and interview at

38:13

the White House tonight at 9 with President

38:15

Trump and I. Let me tell you

38:17

about real estate agents I trust. Buying or selling a

38:19

home is one of the biggest decisions you'll ever make

38:21

and not something that you want to walk blindly into.

38:24

That's why I started realestateagentsitrust.com. I wanted

38:26

to make sure that when you were

38:28

making a move, whether it was across

38:30

the street or across the country, you're

38:32

working with somebody who has been vetted,

38:34

somebody who knows you know is very

38:36

very experienced and who actually knows the

38:38

market, knows the difference between right and

38:40

wrong, knows how to listen to you. These

38:43

are agents who don't just dabble

38:45

in real estate. This is their

38:47

career. They know how to price

38:50

your home correctly, how to stage

38:52

it, how to market it. They

38:54

know how to fight for you

38:56

during the negotiation so you're getting

38:58

the best deal possible whether you're

39:00

buying or you're selling. It's about

39:02

trust, getting somebody who shares your

39:04

values and treats your home like

39:06

more than just a transaction. If

39:08

you're thinking about buying or selling

39:11

a home, go to realestateagentsitrust.com, realestateagentsitrust.com.

39:13

Let my team connect you with

39:15

a top rated agent in your

39:17

area. Don't wait, realestateagentsitrust.com. Well,

39:36

one way you can lose your

39:38

home is by missing mortgage payments.

39:40

But that is not the only

39:42

way to lose it. It turns

39:44

out that the title thieves have

39:46

a faster way of doing this.

39:48

With one forged deed filed online,

39:51

they can claim your property before really

39:53

they get up and have breakfast. Federal

39:56

reports show a title fraud

39:58

climbed more than 50 % last

40:00

year. And meanwhile, the

40:02

nightly news streams What

40:04

celebrity and political drama for the

40:06

clicks instead of warning about stuff

40:08

like this? Here's what happens.

40:10

Basically, the crook copies public data. They

40:12

attach a digital notary stamp. They

40:14

upload a fake deed. And

40:16

your county clerk often accepts it.

40:19

Minutes later, your equity backs a loan

40:21

that you never asked for. The

40:23

bill arrives weeks later. Interests

40:25

already ticking. Our alarms, you know,

40:27

can't do anything to protect you from this. They

40:29

can protect your windows. But they

40:31

can't protect this type of

40:34

theft, and home title luck

40:36

stands watch on home title

40:38

fraud 24 -7. They're not

40:40

going to let you down. The instant a document

40:42

touches your deed, you get an alert,

40:44

and honestly, if by some chance it

40:46

lucky, you know... Thief manages to pull all

40:48

this off. They have a restoration team.

40:50

They send lawyers and, you know, all this

40:52

other stuff to make sure everything gets

40:54

backed away. It's supposed to be go to

40:56

home title lock dot com right now.

40:58

Protect yourself from this home title lock dot

41:00

com home title lock dot com. The

41:02

promo code is blaze. I'm

41:22

gonna spend another hour with you

41:24

and then I got to get to

41:26

to the White House to interview

41:28

the president and I'm looking forward to

41:30

that love to hear your comments

41:32

we pulled our audience Over

41:34

the last few days and been

41:36

asking people, you know, what are you

41:39

most interested in and most people

41:41

are interested in doge That seems to

41:43

be the hot button with this

41:45

audience. So I'm gonna be talking to

41:47

him about doge in particular Yesterday

41:49

it was announced that it looks like

41:51

Elon Musk is gonna be reducing

41:53

his time in Washington on doge next

41:55

month and what does that mean

41:57

and And is he happy with the

41:59

amount that has been cut, you

42:01

know, they've really dramatically Reduced

42:05

the amounts of cuts that they're

42:07

looking for and I I find that

42:09

a little sad quite honestly But

42:11

I'm not sure why that is happening

42:13

is you know, is he getting

42:15

pushback from the agencies? Is he getting

42:17

pushback from Congress? Where is he

42:19

getting this pushback from and is he

42:21

gonna just keep plowing through it?

42:23

What happens when Elon Musk leaves we'll

42:26

talk to him about that Let

42:28

me go to is it Renee in

42:30

Texas or ready Renee Renee Hi,

42:32

Renee. Hi. Tariffs

42:36

are killing my small business,

42:38

and it's not even the tariff

42:40

amounts. It's the way that they

42:42

were implemented very suddenly and very

42:44

haphazardly. The shipping companies were

42:46

not prepared for what was coming. I

42:49

had shipments in the air. I

42:51

import most of my goods for my

42:53

small business specialty martial arts company.

42:55

from Hungary and from Poland and the

42:57

the and UPS and FedEx they

42:59

started swapping steel tariffs on shipments that

43:01

contain zero steel because it's coated

43:03

as a sporting good and when I

43:05

asked hey why are y 'all doing

43:07

that they said well we didn't

43:10

know what was in there and so

43:12

to be safe they coated it

43:14

as steel so I'm paying five thousand

43:16

dollars in customs for a package

43:18

that normally would have cost me six

43:20

hundred to eight hundred dollars in

43:22

tariffs or customs And when I said,

43:24

can I get that back? They

43:26

said, well, you have to file a

43:28

claim with customs and it may

43:30

be four to six weeks to get

43:32

that back. I'm currently out about

43:35

$30 ,000. I will

43:37

ask the president about this because there's

43:39

a lot of tariff talk that I

43:41

want to get to today. I

43:43

put that down. I am going to put it on

43:45

my list of things to talk to him about. I

43:47

feel for you. I really do

43:49

feel for you. It's been a little

43:51

sloppy. Here's Glenn Beck. You
