What you're about to hear is
1:47
the fusion of entertainment
1:49
and enlightenment. This
1:51
is the Glenn Beck
1:54
Program. Well,
1:56
holy cow. We have a
1:58
tremendous show for you.
1:59
today. It is called
2:02
The Lioness. I don't know if you've heard it, it's on
2:04
Paramount. That's a great show. Today on
2:06
this broadcast, you
2:08
know, I mean, it's not horrible,
2:11
but stick around a lot to talk about
2:13
in 60 seconds. I want to tell you about
2:16
a hero, the first 9-11 responder, the
2:19
fire department, New York, Lieutenant Joseph
2:22
Maiello. He answered the call
2:24
to help others on America's darkest day. 10 years
2:27
later, he suffered a fatal heart attack
2:29
in the line of duty and left behind a wife and child.
2:32
This is where Tunnel to Towers comes
2:34
in. They paid
2:36
the mortgage on the Maiello family home and
2:39
helped to remove much of their financial
2:41
burden during what was, for them,
2:43
a very dark and difficult time. This
2:46
is where Tunnel to Towers, this is what they do. When
2:48
heroes like Joseph Maiello lose
2:50
their lives in the line of duty or catastrophically
2:53
injured, Tunnel to Towers is there to
2:55
help. You're doing good in the
2:57
country and the good news is you
2:59
can be a part of it. Soften
3:02
your heart today. Do the things that
3:04
we all know are right. Help others.
3:07
If you'd like to help with our
3:10
fallen firefighters, police
3:13
and military, this is the best
3:15
way you can do it. They, I
3:17
think they have a five star
3:19
charitable rating. It's like 95 or 96%. It's really,
3:25
really a great charity. Tunnel
3:27
to Towers dot
3:29
org. That's
3:29
T to T dot
3:32
org. T to T dot org. Tunnel
3:34
to Towers, help them on their mission now.
3:38
All right. I, I, I'm
3:40
going to tell you a couple of really, really good stories
3:42
first. Let me tell you about the
3:45
kid in, in
3:47
Colorado.
3:49
Jaden is a 12 year old boy. He attends
3:51
Vanguard school, Colorado Springs, Colorado.
3:54
He's, he's in this video.
3:56
You may have seen it. It went viral on social
3:59
media. It shows he
4:01
and his mom confronting a school board
4:04
administrator who says that he has to
4:08
take the Gaston flag patch
4:11
off of his backpack because it's
4:13
too disruptive. And they're like, it's too
4:15
disruptive? What are you talking about? It's too disruptive.
4:18
We don't want the flag displayed
4:20
in school because of its origins with
4:23
slavery and the slave trade.
4:27
Now, I'm just trying to figure that one out historically.
4:30
I don't know. Don't tread on me. How
4:34
does that relate to the slave trade
4:36
at all?
4:37
Okay, it doesn't. It clearly
4:39
doesn't. And these are the kind of boobs that
4:41
we have running our schools, all
4:44
right? They have no idea what they're even
4:46
talking about.
4:47
Now, Jaden, who has kicked out
4:49
a class for having
4:52
the patch says, there's
4:56
no origins of slavery. There's
4:59
12-year-old, no origins of slavery. And
5:03
the school's director says, well, this is being very
5:05
disruptive in the school environment. So
5:07
they removed him from class.
5:10
Mom fought back against it,
5:13
explaining the coiled snake
5:15
above the phrase, don't tread on me,
5:18
is not a pro-slavery image. It
5:20
has origins in the Revolutionary War. It
5:23
was a symbol of resistance
5:25
to British tyranny.
5:28
I'm free, don't tread
5:30
on me. So you could say it's actually
5:33
an anti-slavery. If you wanna talk
5:35
about slavery, it would be anti-slavery
5:38
because it came from the North.
5:42
It came from New England.
5:44
New England had already banned slavery,
5:48
but it's not about that at all. It's not.
5:51
It's about the British tyranny. Don't
5:53
tread on me.
5:55
So now all these experts
5:58
are like, no, it's not, it's not. It's
6:00
slavery, it's slavery, you know, it's connecting
6:02
to Patriot groups.
6:05
Oh, okay. All
6:07
right. So wait,
6:10
the flag chose to be part
6:12
of a Patriot group. The flag's like, the snake's
6:14
like, I gotta, I
6:17
gotta, I just love
6:19
white people. Is that what happened?
6:22
Jeez. Libertarians
6:25
have adapted this. Lefty
6:27
groups, a pro LGBT group
6:31
has adopted it as well. It's
6:33
really nothing to do with a snake. The snake
6:35
was sewn on or printed
6:38
on. I don't know if you, it's kind of
6:40
like a gun. The
6:42
gun didn't make the decision. The
6:45
person did. So
6:48
this is, uh, this
6:51
is a flag that's already gone through the
6:53
government. EEOC. They
6:56
were like, somebody
6:58
was, was suing because the Gadsden
7:00
flag is so it's slavery.
7:03
EEOC said, yeah, no, it's, it's
7:05
not a racist symbol. Okay. So the
7:07
EEOC, I don't
7:10
think I've ever agreed with anything the EEOC
7:12
has ever done. So
7:15
the ruling has come out. The school cannot discriminate
7:17
against, uh, Jayden's viewpoint
7:20
by declaring that this is just,
7:23
uh, you know, a racist symbol and one that will be disruptive.
7:26
Even the governor of Colorado, a Democrat
7:28
said the Gadsden flag is a proud symbol of
7:31
American revolution and an iconic
7:33
warning to Britain or any government not to
7:35
violate the liberties of Americans. Yeah.
7:38
It's almost like it's appropriate today.
7:41
When they're telling you, you
7:43
can't speak out at the
7:46
school board meeting. And then
7:48
don't tread on me. Seems like a
7:51
pretty good motto.
7:53
Or when they're telling you stay at home,
7:56
you're killing every grandmother on
7:59
the planet where. this mask?
8:02
Could I have the don't tread on me flag on the mask?
8:04
Could I do that? That would be weird. I wonder
8:06
if you put a mask and the don't tread
8:08
on me flag together if
8:10
they cancel each other out and disappear.
8:15
Most people don't know that the
8:18
snake
8:19
was really a important symbol
8:23
for our founders. The snake and the skull.
8:26
The skull usually would have
8:28
a crown
8:29
above it and
8:31
it represented no king
8:34
but God. The king dies
8:37
and he becomes a skeleton. So
8:39
no king but God. The
8:42
snake was selected because
8:45
it doesn't want to bite you. It's
8:47
just sitting there in the grass. It's like sunning itself.
8:49
It's like, this sun is
8:52
so great.
8:54
And you come walking along
8:56
and what does it do? It doesn't sneak up on you
8:58
and bite you. It rattles.
9:01
Stop where you
9:04
are. I mean
9:06
I have a ranch. Rattlesnakes
9:09
everywhere. I kind of like
9:11
it because it's extra security. Go
9:14
ahead. Come across that field. Do
9:16
it. Rattlesnakes everywhere.
9:19
Now if you're smart, you're
9:22
paying attention. It's like booby
9:24
traps. But these booby
9:26
traps, they actually rattle
9:28
before they bite. Stay away
9:30
from me.
9:31
Don't walk on me
9:33
or I'll bite.
9:36
That's why our founders
9:38
loved it. It wasn't an aggressive thing. Well,
9:40
I mean if you're a mouse, but if you're a human, it's
9:42
not an aggressive thing.
9:45
It's minding its own business.
9:51
You know, there's the very first
9:54
political cartoon ever done in
9:56
America was
10:00
done by Benjamin Franklin
10:03
and it was a rattlesnake
10:05
and it looks pretty much like that snake on
10:08
Don't Tread on Me. It was a rattlesnake
10:10
and it was cut into 13 pieces
10:13
and it had on each piece
10:16
each state or
10:18
each colony
10:20
and underneath it just said unite
10:22
or die
10:24
meaning we could all go our own separate
10:26
ways the king
10:28
will cut us up we'll help
10:31
him or
10:34
or we could join together and
10:36
live. I
10:39
bring this up because by the way the kid who is
10:42
fantastic I love
10:44
this kid
10:46
this kid by the way his favorite book
10:49
is The Creature from Jekyll Island
10:51
by
10:52
the Tuttle Twins.
10:54
Love this kid okay he
10:56
knows what he's talking about he's back in school
10:59
with the flag on his backpack today
11:02
congratulations.
11:04
Now I see a lot of things
11:06
that are happening at the state level even
11:09
in states like Colorado
11:12
Colorado just put in their house
11:15
Coloradians
11:18
colorado
11:23
people from Colorado decided
11:25
that they really thought this teacher
11:28
who is a Marxist
11:30
and wants a Mao
11:32
like cultural
11:35
revolution he talks about
11:37
an aggressive cultural
11:39
revolution that's code for Mao.
11:43
They just elected him and put him in the
11:46
house okay it's their
11:48
state you can do it
11:52
you also have people like this now
11:54
the question is and I mean
11:56
this sincerely
12:02
The time is coming when
12:05
we are in
12:06
real trouble, real trouble.
12:09
I
12:09
don't know if you saw Tucker on X yesterday.
12:12
He did an interview with Viktor
12:14
Orban from Hungary. Okay,
12:17
that's a little frightening.
12:19
Viktor Orban's like,
12:20
yeah, yeah, World War III. Everybody
12:23
here knows Ukraine is losing.
12:25
There's no way to win. You gotta make
12:28
peace right now because the only thing
12:30
you can do is start sending boots
12:32
on the ground to help them because they're out.
12:35
You do that, it's World War III.
12:38
You start sending the jets over and everything
12:40
else, World War III. He'll use a nuke.
12:43
He will. You
12:45
should probably trust the people who
12:47
have been taken by the former Soviet
12:49
Union and have lived next to Russia,
12:52
our whole existence.
12:54
You should probably listen to us. I mean, there's an ocean
12:56
between you and us.
12:58
You may not know what's best. I
13:02
think he's right on that. But
13:06
as tough times come
13:08
and you live, if you live in
13:10
Washington, DC,
13:12
there's no way you get a fair trial. No way.
13:15
I think if you live in New York City, there's
13:17
no way you get a fair trial. If
13:19
it's political.
13:21
If you're like, yeah,
13:23
my child is my child, not your child.
13:26
They're not gonna get a sex change. No.
13:29
You're not gonna get a fair trial.
13:32
California, do you really think?
13:36
Now things are changing, for instance, in
13:38
Washington, DC.
13:41
I don't know if you've seen the climate activists
13:43
that have glued themselves to the roadway
13:46
again.
13:47
Honestly.
13:48
I just think, did you see the, I
13:50
think it was in New Mexico, but it was
13:53
on the native side.
13:55
I think it was on the Navajo Nation. Burning
13:58
Man was happening. And these...
13:59
Dopes just blocked traffic
14:02
and traffic was blocked forever.
14:05
And they were on the Navajo side. So
14:07
the Navajo Rangers came.
14:09
They just
14:11
took their truck and went through
14:13
the blockade and then turned around
14:15
and started going. And the kids were like, they can't do
14:17
that. What are they doing? We're not
14:20
violent. What you can't? And the
14:22
guy gets out of the truck with his gun. He's like,
14:24
get out on the ground right now.
14:27
And he's aggressive. Yeah, he's
14:29
aggressive. And these hippies are like, you
14:32
can't do that. Yeah, yeah, you're in
14:34
a different country.
14:36
You don't think you are, but you
14:39
are. You're in the Navajo nation
14:41
now and they don't play by
14:43
the same rules. In
14:46
Washington, DC, all of these
14:49
climate activists were out
14:51
and people
14:54
were blocked. Now this has happened two days in the last
14:56
two weeks. People are blocked for
14:58
like an hour, two hours. They're
15:00
just blocked
15:02
and they're getting out of their cars and they are starting
15:04
to accost these people. And they're like, what
15:07
do you think you're doing? I have a house
15:09
payment. I have a car payment.
15:11
I'm raising kids. I'm trying to feed my
15:14
family. Get the hell out of the street.
15:17
And it's getting ugly. It's
15:19
getting really ugly.
15:21
The people, the good news is, I think the people
15:23
have had enough of this. They've had enough.
15:27
For that to happen even in Washington, DC, that's
15:29
interesting.
15:32
So now they, I don't know, they took
15:34
a chisel and got the guy's hand off
15:37
of the concrete, but they were all arrested.
15:40
They'll be back because they think they're Martin Luther King.
15:42
So they'll be back.
15:47
But the question is,
15:51
which way is your state going? And
15:57
should we consider? Because
16:00
I know I have. I
16:02
moved to Texas for a reason. I
16:06
have a ranch in Idaho
16:08
for a reason. I bet on two states.
16:13
There's other states that I'm sure might, you
16:15
know,
16:16
actually stand to, and these two states might
16:18
eventually fall. I don't know.
16:21
But I bet on two states.
16:25
I didn't want to be in New York.
16:27
Those people will eat you. They
16:30
will. It's going to get very, when
16:32
there's no food, and you
16:34
know, because of the Green New Deal, when
16:37
all of that wind power is producing all
16:39
the electricity that it's supposed to produce,
16:42
and nobody has any power, and you're in Washington,
16:44
D.C., and you're in a skyscraper 55, 60 stories
16:49
tall with people in it and their children,
16:51
and they're all hungry, I don't know. I
16:54
don't know. Some new recipes might be tried
16:56
out. I'm just saying.
16:59
Or do we stay in those
17:02
places
17:05
because we know that
17:07
our founders said unite or
17:10
die?
17:12
And what we're doing is we're separating
17:15
ourselves. I don't have an answer
17:17
for this. I really don't.
17:19
I'm really struggling
17:21
with this.
17:24
Do we unite
17:26
or do we separate? Do we balkanize? Bad
17:29
idea. But
17:33
is it the only idea? I
17:35
don't know.
17:38
Because I got to tell you, I'll never go to Washington,
17:40
D.C. Never again.
17:42
Because I know if I'm arrested for
17:44
some political reason, I'll never get a fair
17:46
trial. Never.
17:48
Never. That's
17:51
not good. 888-727-BECK.
17:57
Get Stu's opinion on this in a second. I want to hear
17:59
yours. 888-727-BECK is the number.
18:02
Life
18:04
is difficult enough to get through the day without
18:06
frequent debilitating pain
18:09
piling the misery on top of all the
18:11
stress that we all feel. Our pain,
18:14
which is generally caused by inflammation in the body,
18:16
can drive us to depression and
18:18
bad decision making. I know
18:21
know sometimes
18:24
I become a little out of sorts
18:26
and not necessarily the
18:29
kindest person when I'm at agonizing
18:33
pain. I've been known to snap a couple of
18:35
times. Get your life back. Live
18:37
the life that you're supposed to live. I
18:40
mean, when you're in pain, we're all supposed to
18:42
be really, really kind. But there comes
18:44
a time when you're just like, I can't take
18:46
it anymore. And luckily,
18:48
our loved ones around us understand that. But
18:52
get out of pain. Get your life back.

19:42
after speaking out at the school
19:44
board. She has three children attending
19:46
schools in the school district. She said it's not
19:49
a choice. People are not gender
19:51
fluid. And to teach our children this
19:53
is not okay. I
19:55
just got something today in
19:59
the mail. where, here
20:02
it is, I just got this, not
20:04
in the mail, but email, let me
20:06
read it to you. This
20:08
is from a very
20:11
trusted organization that
20:14
my daughter does plays in from time
20:16
to time,
20:17
and very, very
20:19
conservative, okay? Tries
20:22
to do family-oriented stuff. Dressing
20:26
room policies, all actors are required
20:29
to arrive at the theater in base clothing of
20:31
tank tops and shorts. If you do not
20:33
arrive in base clothes, please use the restrooms to
20:35
change upon arrival. All children under the
20:37
age of 17 use the second stage
20:39
dressing room. Costume changes during the show
20:41
will be in conference room or green room. Please, preset
20:44
your costume pieces. All adults
20:46
who identify as female will
20:48
be in the dressing room behind this section
20:51
of the theater. All adults who identify as
20:53
male will be in the, you know what, no, no, no,
20:55
no, no.
20:59
My daughter's not gonna be really happy
21:02
to hear this, but no,
21:04
I don't care
21:07
how you identify.
21:09
You're a dude, go to the men's room.
21:11
You're a girl, woman, go
21:13
to the girl's room. That's it, period.
21:16
I don't care, oh, I identify, I don't care.
21:19
I don't care.
21:20
There is no such thing as a biological
21:22
male, okay?
21:23
Well, biologically,
21:26
I'm a male, but no, there's no but.
21:29
Of course, you're a biological male. That's the only
21:31
kind of male that exists, biological.
21:35
Everything else is psychological,
21:38
and I'm not gonna deal with your psychosis.
21:41
No, not going to,
21:43
not going to. I'm not changing because
21:45
you're truly messed up in the head, and I say
21:47
that with as much love and respect
21:50
as I can give at this point.
21:54
I've never had a problem, I mean, I
21:57
feel for people who are
21:59
really suffering. from gender
22:01
dysphoria, I really do.
22:03
But you know what? Enough is enough. Enough
22:05
is enough. And it's not their fault, it's
22:08
everyone else who's enabling them.
22:11
Yeah, I mean, it's the same way you'd feel for someone who's
22:13
suffering with anorexia. Yes. You
22:15
wouldn't confirm that they're actually really
22:18
fat and never need to eat again.
22:20
You would instead say, no, you need to change
22:22
the way you're not fat. You need to make sure
22:24
you change your habits. And
22:27
that's what we're supposed to do. Instead,
22:29
we're going down this other road where we just kind of
22:31
like say, yeah, whatever you think. No. Whatever's
22:34
rattle around inside that brain is true. Right.
22:37
Speaking of rattle around, don't tread
22:40
on me. Do we move or
22:42
do we stay? The Glenn
22:44
Beck Program. Unless your dogs,
22:47
you know, get to stare at the menu every night. I don't
22:49
know,
22:50
Fluffy hasn't decided what they're gonna
22:52
have for dinner tonight. Your dog eats whatever
22:54
you give him.
22:55
So I give my dog
22:58
kibble food and it's good kibble food. And
23:00
then I found out that, you know, all
23:03
kibble food is dead food because it has to, by
23:05
law,
23:05
it has to be able
23:07
to stay on the shelf for two years.
23:10
Okay. So what do you do? Well, you can either,
23:12
you know, get other food and get
23:14
it in the refrigerator section of your
23:17
pet store. Oh, I like to give
23:19
Bluffy this. Really?

24:19
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program we're talking
24:21
about whether or not
24:23
People should move And
24:26
you know we're three people here Pat's joining us
24:29
three people here who have moved to Texas
24:31
from New York You know we got out when the
24:33
getting was good And and
24:35
we're here for a reason
24:37
Because we're counting on Texas to stand
24:40
If your state or your community
24:43
is going to hell in a handbasket
24:45
Should you stay because if we if
24:48
all of conservatives move to
24:50
you know ten states 25 state We
24:52
just split the then we've split the
24:54
country. We're Balkanized
24:57
But I'm so torn
24:59
on this because because maybe
25:02
Balkanization is good I
25:08
go for I go from the big picture, which
25:10
this is really bad. No way around
25:12
it Balkanization is bad to the little
25:15
picture It's easy for me
25:17
to say no you should stay in New York.
25:19
Yeah, you should stay in, California
25:23
No, well you should if you were planning to move
25:25
to Texas because Texas is full up. It's full.
25:27
We're just for okay I'm to the right. There's
25:29
no vacancy. Let me go to us. Let
25:31
me go to Ben in Ohio. Hello, Ben
25:34
How are you good? How are you? I'm
25:37
fantastic honored to speak to you sir.
25:39
Thank you Unfortunately
25:41
I lean towards the side of it. We have to move
25:44
It's you know states are being picked off one
25:46
by one states like Illinois and California are Are
25:49
obviously lost there it doesn't we
25:52
don't have enough that are going to move to those
25:54
areas that we can try to take those states back
25:56
and With my I've got family
25:58
that lives in Texas unfortunately Unfortunately, I'm probably
26:00
headed that way. I know you say you're full,
26:03
but you can take one
26:05
more family. Well, you're a listener of ours. We'll sneak
26:07
you across the border. Absolutely.
26:10
But yeah, we have to start
26:13
surrounding ourselves, or we're just going to continue
26:15
to be split up. We're so
26:17
spread out. The people that love this country and stand
26:19
for the Constitution are so spread out and so
26:21
split up that we're losing
26:24
on the bigger picture. And
26:26
it's unfortunate, but we need to
26:28
start
26:29
kind of creating those home bases, in my opinion,
26:32
and where we can start solidifying what
26:34
we need to do to protect what we have.
26:37
The problem is we're fighting a battle
26:39
on 50 fronts. This is the only
26:41
way I can make this work in my head. We're
26:43
fighting a battle on 50 fronts, and
26:47
we tend to be losing
26:49
on those 50 fronts, and not because of
26:51
the argument or anything else, but because of
26:53
the big cities. They're all controlled
26:56
by progressives. So the
26:58
big cities vote, and you lose the state.
27:01
So, you know, how are you going
27:03
to change, you got to change those big cities,
27:05
which require some of us, and God
27:08
bless you, you're a hero for going into
27:10
those cities and changing them from
27:12
the inside. If we leave, we've
27:15
lost the state. We lost the state.
27:18
And we will vulcanize.
27:21
But isn't there something to be said
27:23
to stop the, I
27:27
mean, look at how close Texas is. Texas,
27:30
I think, is pretty close to becoming a blue state.
27:33
Yeah, I mean, we got a little room here. A
27:35
little room, I think. A little. The
27:37
cities are gone.
27:40
Gone. I have a really strong feeling on this question, by
27:42
the way, which is absolutely leave. Like,
27:45
I don't try to convince me
27:47
that I'm going to be the difference, and
27:50
spend the next multiple decades of my family's
27:53
existence trying to fight Balkanization
27:55
in some blue state.
27:57
Forget it. Do what is best
27:59
for you. or your family and
28:01
go to the place where your family can be raised
28:05
the best way possible. You
28:07
just, I understand what you're meaning from a societal
28:09
viewpoint, but when you're making that decision
28:12
as an individual,
28:14
you make that decision that is best for your family.
28:16
Totally agree with, you gotta
28:18
make the decision that's right for your family. Totally
28:20
agree, totally agree. However,
28:25
don't
28:26
come here if you're a progressive. Well,
28:28
yes. You got all that. You got
28:30
the dream land over in California
28:32
and New York and everything else. But
28:34
the problem is, is
28:36
that, I mean, go back to Franklin,
28:39
unite or die.
28:40
That's giving up on
28:43
our friends and neighbors who
28:45
vote Democrat, but are not these
28:48
crazy people that glue themselves to highways.
28:50
That's giving up on them
28:53
and saying, there's no way back for
28:55
them.
28:56
Then they should change, vote sensibly,
28:58
and come to Texas too, or come to
29:01
Florida too. There
29:03
is plenty of room, despite our warnings,
29:06
for sane people, except in Texas. We
29:08
accept in Texas, obviously we're filled with a brim. But
29:10
no, I mean, I think it is, I think a lot
29:12
of times we make these decisions
29:14
based on things like, well,
29:16
what will happen in 40 years with
29:19
the future of the nation? Live your
29:21
life the best way possible for your family
29:24
to honor your
29:26
principles and your faith. Do
29:28
that, because you're not gonna be able to
29:31
control what the hell Kathy Hochul does
29:33
in New York. You're not saving it. Save
29:35
your family. You know,
29:37
when you see, that goes again,
29:39
you know, I'm stuck,
29:42
I'm stuck, because I know what I would do, I
29:44
know what I am doing for my family.
29:46
Yeah, because I know I live here. And
29:49
a good chunk of the reason I live here is because you
29:51
decided you wanted to be in Texas, which I'm
29:53
very thankful for, by the way. So
29:56
you're welcome, and 10% of the salary can
29:59
come to me now.
29:59
You're paying 100% of it. That would just
30:02
mean you'd pay 90% of it. Okay,
30:04
good. Glad we understand each other. So,
30:08
I go back and forth on what's right
30:10
for you, you know, what's right
30:12
for the individual and then what's right
30:15
for the nation. And,
30:16
you know, I
30:18
don't have a right to say. I
30:21
just would, I think we should just point
30:23
out that Balkanization
30:26
is not good.
30:27
And that's what they want.
30:29
That's what they want. And people...
30:31
The aliens? You
30:34
know, them. Yeah. Yeah. You saw
30:36
that. You saw them.
30:38
I did. And it. And the thing. You
30:41
saw all those. That's who wants
30:43
it. All great documentaries.
30:46
All great documentaries. Do you, Pat, make decisions
30:49
like that based on... I think
30:51
about this when I'm voting sometimes. Not usually, no. Like where you're like,
30:53
oh, well, what's the strategic thing to do right now
30:55
is to do this. Because this person will go this and this person
30:57
and this will happen and this will happen. Just vote for who
31:00
you think the best person is. Oh, I hate that. Yeah.
31:02
I've done that before. And it never
31:04
works. It never works. It never works. It's a terrible idea. It
31:07
always... You're not going to be the person who makes
31:09
the one vote difference to get your candidate
31:11
over... That's going to make X, Y, and Z happens.
31:13
And then 35 different chain reactions occur.
31:16
And then it really works out in the end. That's not the
31:18
way it works. Just vote for who you think the best
31:20
person is.
31:21
Wow. So he's saying every vote doesn't count. Your
31:23
vote doesn't count. It counts. Basically what I heard him say. Yeah.
31:26
I think America heard it too. Yeah. I was talking
31:29
to Eric July the other day and he's like, you know, democracy
31:31
sucks. It does. It's true. It kind of sucks
31:34
at the end of the day. Yes. And
31:36
it was a funny point, but also like... This
31:39
at times has its problems.
31:41
The bottom line is make decisions that
31:43
you feel comfortable with
31:45
for your family and your future, right?
31:47
That's all you can do. And
31:50
people get so wrapped up
31:52
in trying to micromanage the future
31:54
of the nation. If everyone just makes
31:56
good decisions
31:58
based on... solid principles.
32:01
We're going to be okay. We've been okay for a long time.
32:04
Let's just abandon that. Let me go to Chrissy
32:06
in also in Ohio. Hi, Chrissy.
32:10
Yeah. Hi, guys. Thank you so much
32:12
for all you do. We had a really
32:15
big thing in Ohio and it was the voting on issue one
32:17
and it's about
32:20
amending our constitution. And
32:22
a lot of people in my family were,
32:25
you know, split
32:27
on it. And
32:28
of course I was, yes. And
32:30
my
32:30
sister was sending me texts saying, you
32:32
know, Hey, this is all about, you
32:35
know, abortion. It's all about this.
32:37
And, you know, I am a pro
32:39
choice person. I'm very conservative,
32:42
but I believe in some, you know,
32:45
cap on weeks and
32:48
all of that. And when she, you know, sent
32:50
me that text, I sent back to her. I
32:52
said, Hey, I cannot vote
32:55
on one issue. I cannot just
32:57
vote on abortion. So
33:00
what that would mean is if
33:03
we had 40% that you needed to amend the Ohio constitution,
33:07
then when, uh, if
33:10
it was, we wanted to change it to 60%. And I said, what
33:15
if they want to start, you know, having
33:17
trans storytime in school? What
33:19
if they started doing those types of things?
33:22
And, you know, everybody just, I
33:24
don't know, I think we need to start talking about it
33:26
differently. I'm happy to move
33:30
to Florida, although I love Ohio
33:32
and we have family in Florida, but it's, it's
33:34
really tough.
33:35
No, I know it's really tough. It's
33:37
really, really tough. The, the,
33:40
I have to understand your point of view though you, you, so
33:42
you voted
33:43
against the change to 60%. Now
33:47
that she says she voted yes. Okay.
33:49
All right. Good. I voted yes.
33:51
Cause I wanted it to stick to go
33:53
to 60 instead of, and
33:55
that's not what happened in Ohio. Is it?
33:58
No. Now it's.
33:59
it now we need only 40 percent. That's
34:02
insane. That's all you need and it can be
34:04
changed. But can
34:06
I
34:06
say something real quick to thank you?
34:09
Sure, always. Well
34:13
actually I need to thank you, all of
34:15
you guys. I've been listening for a long time and I've
34:17
been sober for a long time. I
34:20
attended 828 and I went
34:22
to Wilmington and I went to restoring
34:25
love and I am still
34:27
in contact with these people that
34:29
I have met
34:30
and it literally
34:32
has changed my life and I just
34:35
want to say thank you
34:36
for following your heart and believing
34:39
in letting your life go and
34:41
take it where your
34:43
God that you believe
34:44
in sends you. So thank you. Thank
34:47
you. I really, it means a great
34:49
deal to me. All of those things
34:51
that we've done in the past always seemed
34:54
like they were game
34:55
changing and they never, you
34:57
never saw the result but I think
35:00
over time I have seen the result.
35:03
And Chrissy, I hear this from
35:05
people like you
35:06
all the time
35:08
that those events changed their life
35:10
because they met people
35:12
and they have new friends and
35:14
I mean they, I've
35:17
watched them. I've watched these people
35:19
in their circle of friends who met
35:21
at one of these events and one is
35:23
dying of cancer, one has MS
35:26
and the whole group
35:29
gathers around to help. It's really
35:31
a remarkable audience and I thank you for being
35:34
part of it, Chrissy.
35:36
Okay. That's awesome. I mean
35:38
like it is, it's a writing yourself with community. I mean I
35:40
think I could, I might be a person who's in upstate
35:42
New York somewhere and have a great community around
35:44
me and say, you know what, I can make it through
35:47
this. We've got a great circle and we
35:49
can do this. It's a totally rational decision
35:51
in any particular situation but it's like
35:54
there's no reason to torture yourself. There's
35:57
no reason to sit here and pay insane
35:59
taxes. to a state that is going to use
36:02
it to fund abortions. Like, there's
36:04
just like, that's not a thing you have to do. Federalism
36:07
is really important. We should get to more of that.
36:10
We should. We should get to more of that. And
36:12
I think we're moving towards
36:15
that
36:15
more and more. I mean, look at what's happening
36:18
in Hawaii.
36:20
I mean, there's
36:22
a chance that things change in Hawaii
36:26
because all of, I mean,
36:29
the electrical company said it was their
36:32
fault that the fire started. Now they're blaming
36:34
the fire department because you didn't put it out properly.
36:37
But the blame is all not
36:39
on global warming. It's all on government
36:42
and efficiency. And I think people are seeing,
36:45
wow, government, when I've said
36:47
this for years,
36:48
when the government is the police
36:52
and the offender, where
36:55
do you go for help?
36:57
And I think people are starting to maybe
37:00
realize that. By the way, today
37:02
I'm hosting a off-the-record
37:05
private Q&A exclusively

37:43
sure, I better not say, but it's in the mid-afternoon
37:46
Central Time, I believe. So
37:48
you can go there and it'll tell you when it's
37:50
going to happen, I'm sure. Mid-afternoon Central Time, late night,
37:52
Eastern,
37:53
and then morning Pacific.
37:56
Right. And Hawaii. It doesn't even
37:58
happen in Hawaii. It doesn't happen.
37:59
against that.
38:02
It's a long swim. All right.
38:05
Also tonight, the Wednesday night special, speaking
38:07
of Maui, the disaster in Maui, the
38:09
government failures that helped caused
38:12
it, and why there are so still
38:14
so many unanswered questions.
38:17
It's a microcosm of
38:19
progressive governments everywhere.
38:22
Tragically ironic, because the core tenet
38:25
of Democrats, at least according to how
38:27
they market themselves, is their government is always
38:29
there for the people and they care
38:31
and they're the best to take care of things
38:33
when it turns out they're the worst. Join
38:35

38:38
how left wing government failed Hawaiians.

39:09
networks, which means you're getting the same coverage
39:11
you're accustomed to. But unlike
39:14
your big mobile companies, they're not sending some of

Sometimes it seems like there's a running battle
40:13
between cyber criminals and the government to see
40:15
who can steal the most money from you.
40:17
Now the government wins almost all the time, but
40:19
the competition is pretty
40:20
darn close. Take home title theft
40:23
for instance. It's one of the fastest growing crimes
40:25
in America. And it's a very good reason
40:27
for that is it turns out most victims
40:29
of home title theft don't even know they're a victim until
40:31
it's way too late.
40:33
One homeowner pulled into her street one
40:35
day, saw a bulldozer knocking
40:37
down her home. I'm laughing at it. She
40:40
was not laughing at the time. Why was this
40:42
happening? Well, she was a victim of home title
40:44
theft. A criminal had forged his way onto
40:46
the deed of her home
40:48
and sold it. And now the new owner was tearing
40:50
it down to rebuild. The new owner didn't know what was going on. They just
40:52
thought they bought the home legally. Your home, your
40:54
property, your equity are your most valuable assets
40:56
and home title lock can help you protect them.
40:58
Home title lock puts a shield around your home's title
41:00
and the instant they detect any tampering and they
41:03
can help shut it down fast. We've been talking
41:05
about where you should be moving in the country
41:07
this hour. And a lot of times
41:09
you think your situation's totally
41:11
protected. Well, if your home is not
41:14
protected and home title theft happens to you, it doesn't matter
41:16
where you live. Your life is going to be miserable. So
41:18
make sure it doesn't happen to you. Find out for free

There's lots of things going
41:36
on in the world where Mercury One is still
41:38
on the ground in Maui,
41:42
but we are also mobilizing now
41:44
as the hurricane
41:46
comes on shore in Florida, 110
41:49
mile an hour winds
41:52
and flooding.
41:54
Mercury One will be there. We could use your
41:56
support. We don't, we're
41:58
not a
41:59
national organization.
41:59
organization that comes in. We're a national
42:02
organization that comes in and
42:04
writes the local people checks
42:06
because we believe they're the best
42:08
able to help themselves. And
42:11
so we support the churches and
42:13
the local people that are making
42:15
the difference on the ground and when people
42:18
need food or water we're there for that
42:20
as well. But if you
42:23
want to make sure that a hundred percent
42:25
of your money is going to these things just
42:28
donate now mercuryone.org and give
42:32
to our emergency relief fund. 100
42:36
cents on every dollar goes
42:38
to those emergencies and

The Glenn Beck program. I'm a pretty good shot
42:47
when it comes to you know shooters.
42:49
I'm a pretty good shot but it doesn't come naturally.
42:52
In fact it it goes
42:54
away quickly. You can be a good shot if
42:56
you're shooting all the time take
42:58
a year off and you're not the same. And now
43:01
to you know go to the range and spend
43:04
all
43:04
that money for target practice
43:06
is it's just it's crippling it's crippling.
43:09
Way to do it is with Mantis X. Now you
43:11
can still go to the range and it
43:13
will sync with your phone or your iPad
43:15
and as you pull the trigger it tells you
43:18
exactly what you're doing wrong with
43:20
the gun where you're actually firing.
43:22
Now you can do it with actual rounds or dry
43:24
fire practice and I've been doing it with
43:26
dry fire practice and I could
43:29
not believe how good I was
43:32
when I went up to the ranch this summer and shot off
43:35
a few rounds. I mean it was astonishing
43:37
to me and it's all because of
43:40
Mantis X. Please it'll save you
43:42
a buttload of money it'll keep your
43:44
skills up and it's
43:46
used by the Marines and the and
43:49
the rest of the military now for shooting
43:51
practices. It's like having a drill
43:53
instructor standing right next to you telling you exactly what
43:55
to do. It's MantisX.com. MantisX.com

44:02
bad surprises and

they break your budget, which is what can happen with
44:05
an unexpected home appliance or home
44:07
system breakdown. Suddenly your budget's a
44:09
mess because of a broken dishwasher, a leaky
44:12
toilet, or a clothes dryer that just won't dry
44:14
anymore. With inflation and the cost
44:16
of gas going through the roof, wouldn't it be nice to
44:18
have some financial stability right

now? Luckily, with American Home

What
45:36
you're about to hear is
45:39
the fusion of entertainment and
45:41
enlightenment. This
45:44
is the Glenn Beck Program. Natural
45:50
disasters happening again. We have
45:52
still recovery in Maui and now the
45:56
hurricane in Florida. What a
45:58
difference a life can make.
45:59
government makes. What
46:02
a difference a governor makes. What
46:04
a difference a freedom
46:07
kind of capitalist makes
46:09
compared to a socialist
46:12
progressive. Look at the difference
46:14
between Florida and Hawaii and
46:17
how the state has responded. We're
46:19
gonna show you that and we're gonna we're
46:21
gonna talk to the guy who if
46:23
you saw the movie, oh
46:26
shoot what was it called,
46:30
Jesus Revolution, thank you. We
46:33
have the guy Greg Laurie who was
46:35
the the kid in that movie. His
46:38
church is in Maui and
46:41
he's gonna give us a report on what's happening there
46:43
coming up in just a second. Stand by. First
46:45
let me tell you about Relief Factor. I have a hunch that even
46:47
if you're one of those people who live with frequent pain
46:50
or even constant pain you've probably
46:52
rejected a few things out of hand the way
46:54
I did with Relief Factor. I did for a long
46:56
long time. Necessity must
46:59
be the mother of invention.
47:00
Surely it is but we're hard-headed
47:04
and sometimes we need we need a
47:06
good woman to yell at us and say just
47:08
take this. And so I did
47:10
and Relief Factor
47:13
changed my life. Relief
47:15
Factor exists to give you your life
47:18
back that you love. So if you've been living with
47:20
pain in your life and you're ready to try something,
47:23
something different to get rid of it, please
47:25
give Relief Factor a shot. They're
47:27
offering the three-week quick start. Try it for
47:29
three weeks. Millions of people have tried
47:31
the quick start and about 70% of them
47:33
go on now to order more
47:36
month after month. That's a
47:38
pretty good percentage. That means 70% of us
47:41
get our lives back or find relief.
47:45
ReliefFactor.com. 800 the number 4 relief. 800
47:47
the number 4 relief. ReliefFactor.com.
47:52
Feel the difference. Okay
47:57
let me play can I start with the audio
47:59
from last night of Governor
48:04
DeSantis on television
48:06
talking about what's happening
48:09
in Florida. Listen to this Well, this thing's gonna
48:11
hit us on Wednesday morning. It's gonna be a
48:13
major hurricane People need
48:15
to heed the instructions from their local
48:17
officials You still have time
48:20
this morning and early afternoon to be
48:22
able to make the preparations that you need
48:24
to you are gonna start seeing On the Gulf
48:26
Coast of Florida some of the effects of
48:28
this as we get into Tuesday night
48:31
the state We have tens of thousands
48:34
of utility workers Staged
48:37
ready to go in for rapid power restoration
48:39
We also have urban search and rescue
48:42
team staged ready to go if there
48:44
needs to be Rescue operations
48:47
we will lead the effort on that and
48:49
then of course we have other types of supplies
48:52
as people need So so we're ready to go
48:54
on this This is a storm that's
48:56
hitting a part of the state that hasn't had a major
48:58
hurricane on the current track In
49:01
a long time and so that's a lot
49:03
of woods a lot of forests I
49:05
think you're gonna see a lot of debris as a
49:07
result of this storm and that means we
49:09
have our guys ready to clear the roads
49:12
It's
49:12
amazing this They
49:15
are taking action prior
49:17
to You remember
49:20
a year before to the day
49:22
the year before Katrina
49:25
I was on the air and I told you the most
49:28
dangerous city in America Was
49:31
New Orleans
49:32
because the levees have been
49:35
used as a political fundraiser
49:39
forever and then they never fix
49:41
the levees and
49:42
I said it is the most dangerous
49:44
if it is hit straight on
49:47
It will cause chaos unlike
49:49
anything we've ever seen
49:51
12 months later to the day it
49:54
was happening It
49:57
didn't it didn't take a profit
49:59
to see it it only take somebody who's looking
50:01
at what is not being
50:04
done by the government. The same thing
50:06
with Maui. What
50:10
we've learned from Maui,
50:13
A, about the government, we'll get into later,
50:16
but what we've learned is the people
50:18
can take care of themselves.
50:21
The people are taking care of
50:23
themselves. The community is coming together.
50:26
Everyone I talked to that has been
50:28
to Maui or is in Maui has
50:30
said the same thing. This is a tight knit
50:33
community that is really helping
50:36
each other. You can't expect
50:38
a government who is several time
50:40
zones away to be your first responder.
50:44
For one reason, they suck. They
50:47
always suck.
50:50
You need people closest to the ground. That's why
50:52
we don't give to big national
50:55
charities unless we
50:57
know they are the first on
51:00
the ground and they have a long track record
51:02
of
51:02
being the first in and the last
51:05
out.
51:06
When you give your dollars to Mercury
51:08
One, you're not really giving them to Mercury
51:11
One. We are just finding the place
51:13
where those dollars will get
51:16
the most bang for the buck because
51:18
we don't take anything off the top. The
51:20
first places we go are
51:23
local churches,
51:24
the local
51:27
churches, the local clubs, the
51:30
local emergency people that have dealt
51:32
with these things over and over again. The
51:35
churches are usually one of the best
51:37
places. Greg Laurie,
51:40
he's the guy who was in the movie
51:42
Jesus Revolution, or he wasn't actually,
51:44
and it was about him and
51:46
that whole revolution. He
51:50
has a church there on Maui
51:52
in this community.
51:55
It's an amazing
51:57
story and they were the first
51:59
people out. out to be able to help,
52:02
and we wanted to get the story from him on what's going
52:04
on. Welcome,
52:06
Greg. Greg Stilson, Jr. Welcome. Good to be with you.
52:09
Thanks so much
52:11
for inviting me to be on your show. I was
52:14
actually just in Maui yesterday,
52:17
and we've had a church
52:19
there, as you mentioned, for 41 years now. A
52:22
friend of mine started it. He's
52:24
a pro surfer. He started this church.
52:27
And he wanted to retire
52:29
and ask if we'd bring it into our church
52:32
family that's called Harvest. And so now
52:35
it's been a part of our churches for
52:37
seven years. And
52:40
it's usually a very happy thing to go over
52:42
there, a very close congregation
52:44
of around a thousand people. And man,
52:47
when I spoke to him last Sunday, it's
52:49
like they were all collectively traumatized
52:52
still, but yet still filled
52:55
with hope. And that is, I think,
52:57
one of the most important things right now is
53:00
to bring yes help. And thanks to you
53:02
and Mercury One and others
53:04
that have helped us, we've been able to bring tangible
53:07
help to people, helping them
53:09
get clothing, food. We've
53:11
helped a hundred families in tangible ways
53:14
financially to survive
53:16
this thing. But I think the thing
53:19
that we have to offer that's more important than
53:21
anything is hope. You know, it's been
53:23
said that men can live 40 days without
53:25
food, three days without water, about
53:28
eight minutes without air, but not one second
53:30
without hope. And there's a lot
53:33
of people on this island that have lost
53:35
hope. I was talking with
53:37
JP Decker, who works with
53:39
you at Mercury One. And
53:41
he brought to my attention the fact that there
53:44
have been a number of suicides that
53:46
just happened among those who have lost their home,
53:50
their livelihood, and apparently
53:52
their hope. And so we're really working
53:55
on that.
53:56
I, you know, from everything
53:58
I read, the people People who were in
54:01
the water that
54:03
watched people burn to death and watch
54:05
people, you know, eventually give up and drown
54:08
all around them.
54:09
The, you know, the
54:12
one woman who
54:13
finally after two days of
54:16
looking for her son, she was turned
54:18
around by the police and everybody else. And
54:21
they said, no, we've already cleared all the houses.
54:24
She went back to what was left of her house.
54:27
But her son's bedroom was still fairly
54:29
intact and he was, he
54:32
had not been incinerated
54:34
and he was sitting on what was his
54:36
bed holding his dog. Once
54:39
you see these kinds of things
54:41
up close and personal and
54:44
one after another after another,
54:47
I mean,
54:48
what are you guys dealing with over there psychologically?
54:54
You're dealing with trauma. You
54:56
know, I know people, I think misuse the
54:58
concept of PTSD, but
55:01
I think you're really seeing this on a widespread
55:04
scale because these people have experienced
55:07
major trauma in stories like
55:10
that. When you just shared that, that's so
55:12
unbelievable and they were told to
55:14
not go to their home and
55:17
they weren't, and they were told to, to not
55:19
leave and they were turned back again. And
55:21
many of those people were incinerated because
55:24
of that. And for the ones that just broke
55:26
the law effectively and in
55:29
the disobeying what they were told, they lived.
55:32
And so this without question
55:34
has been horribly mismanaged on
55:37
so many levels. And
55:39
but that we stepped in immediately
55:41
because we're there on the ground and
55:44
in every way possible. And giving
55:46
people, you know, a man who lost
55:49
his livelihood, gave him fishing
55:51
pole so he can go out and dish again.
55:54
We have one couple of the church thing on the Round People
55:57
Pizza and they just
55:59
made all of their pizza free for
56:01
anybody that wants it. And so we
56:04
got in this truck and we're driving around just giving
56:06
pizzas to police officers,
56:08
to people anywhere. Boy, I tell you what,
56:10
Glenn, people love pizza. I
56:13
saw the power of pizza. I mean, it's a
56:15
little thing, but we give it to
56:17
him in the name of Jesus Christ. Here's
56:20
a pizza. Thank you. You know, little
56:22
things matter. But I think, you know, there's
56:24
something called the ministry of presence where
56:26
you're just there and you listen
56:29
to people and you care about people.
56:32
And that goes a long way because, you know,
56:34
when you're dealing with trauma, you've got to talk about
56:37
it. You've got to process it. And
56:39
of course we pray with them and
56:41
we point them toward Christ. And
56:44
because he is the one who's ultimately
56:46
going to give us the hope we need.
56:48
You have preschool. Now you're
56:50
holding, you're allowing the church
56:52
facilities to be used for
56:55
teachers and parent groups and, you
56:57
know, educational support. And then the preschool
56:59
is as childcare for families.
57:02
I mean, this is turning into
57:05
kind of a full-time thing. How
57:07
long can the church do that?
57:10
We'll do it as long as it needs to be done.
57:13
And we're working with other organizations,
57:16
Rickery One, Samaritan's Purse, the
57:18
Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.
57:21
We're also helping people just with the practical
57:24
things like filling up their insurance
57:27
forms and making their claims. Because a lot
57:29
of these people don't know how to do it. They
57:32
didn't have internet for quite a while.
57:34
We've run into some of those Starlink systems.
57:37
So people could just, there was like literally,
57:39
there was no communication on this island. People
57:43
couldn't text each other. They couldn't call each
57:45
other. They couldn't communicate
57:47
at all. And this fire, as you know, just
57:49
incinerated everything in its path. When
57:52
I got there, we got down on
57:54
what is called Front Street. And
57:57
that's kind of the main destination of
57:59
Lahaina. people come from around the world, the
58:01
business that they said, tourist attraction,
58:03
beautiful street, back to my social media.
58:06
I posted a drone shot that we had
58:08
done two weeks before this fire,
58:11
because I was there doing a program with CBN,
58:14
featuring our church in happier days.
58:17
And I put this drone shot of what Front
58:19
Street looked like in its heyday and
58:21
its glory, right next to
58:24
a shot of the same places that
58:26
we just took on that
58:28
same street, and it looks like a war zone.
58:31
It's just incomprehensible,
58:34
because I pretty much know every square inch of that
58:36
street. And you know, think of all
58:39
those buildings, your favorite stores
58:41
and restaurants, but even more obviously,
58:43
the loss of life. I mean, you're walking
58:46
through, effectively, a graveyard,
58:49
and it's very sobering, it's
58:52
very sad. And, but
58:54
at the same time, I see,
58:57
you know, the Bible talks about beauty coming
58:59
out of ashes. And I see that happening
59:02
there. You know, here's the amazing
59:04
thing is, downtown in Lahaina, there's this
59:06
tree, it's a banyan tree. And
59:08
it was actually planted, interestingly,
59:11
dedicated to the first missionary
59:14
that came to Lahaina. And
59:16
this tree somehow survived. And
59:18
to me, it's a picture of resilience,
59:21
and about how if a person
59:23
is rooted in a relationship
59:25
with God, they can survive
59:28
anything. And I think that tree has, in many
59:30
ways, become a symbol for the people on the island.
59:33
They're gonna come back again, they're
59:35
gonna rebuild again, but the loss
59:38
of life, those people can never be replaced.
59:41
Greg Laurie, he is the real life guy that
59:45
you might've seen in the Jesus
59:48
Revolution. That was his story. And
59:51
he is a senior pastor at Harvest Christian
59:53
Fellowship. One of their
59:56
branches is right there in
59:59
Lahaina in... Maui, and
1:00:01
he has been on the scene. The church
1:00:03
has been working. And thank you, Greg, for being
1:00:06
such a good steward of the money
1:00:08
that Mercury One has given the church to
1:00:10
be able to help all these people.
1:00:12
Thank you.
1:00:13
We like to give it to people who understand
1:00:16
sacred money.
1:00:18
Well, Glenn, thank you so much. And for
1:00:21
all the folks that invested, we really
1:00:23
appreciate it. And God bless you all. Thank you
1:00:25
very much. So you know,
1:00:28
several of the charities that he mentioned,
1:00:31
Billy
1:00:31
Graham and Samaritan's Purse,
1:00:35
we
1:00:36
helped them get the
1:00:38
first, I think it was a C-130 off
1:00:41
the ground right away when this
1:00:44
was happening. That was also your
1:00:47
money, and we appreciate it. If you'd
1:00:49
like to help, and then help those who are
1:00:51
now in Florida as well.
1:00:54
Government is not
1:00:56
the thing. It is the local
1:00:58
people that always fix the problems.
1:01:02
So why send your money to
1:01:04
an inefficient where they're using maybe 40
1:01:08
cents on every dollar?
1:01:10
The rest is in overhead. 100%
1:01:12
of
1:01:12
the money goes
1:01:15
directly to whatever it
1:01:17
is we're trying to serve
1:01:19
in disaster relief.
1:01:22
Give to local charities and local people,
1:01:24
and if you don't know who to give there, you
1:01:26
can go to Mercury One, and we will
1:01:28
find those people for you. MercuryOne.org.
1:01:32
Tonight, we have a special
1:01:35
on Wednesday night, our Wednesday night
1:01:37
special. It is the tragedy
1:01:40
in Maui. How left-wing government
1:01:42
has failed Hawaiians. There's a lot of
1:01:44
questions out, and it
1:01:47
wasn't global warming. It
1:01:49
was the government. Incompetence,
1:01:52
fear of their
1:01:55
own government,
1:01:56
and not
1:01:59
paying attention to all the
1:01:59
of the warnings.
1:02:01

All cars break down eventually, and it's usually
1:02:14
a day or two after the warranty expires. At least that's
1:02:16
what it always feels like. And with all
1:02:19
the little computer chips, you got about 1,000
1:02:21
of them in new cars now. Oh, 1,000.
1:02:23
A repair
1:02:26
can set you back quite a bit, quite
1:02:28
a bit. Sometimes thousands of dollars.

1:04:41
It's a great time and they'll ask you all sorts of uncomfortable
1:04:44
questions. So it's great. Yeah. Yeah,
1:04:47
I know. I have something that
1:04:49
you have not heard because
1:04:51
no one has reported on it and
1:04:54
we got wind of it and did
1:04:56
our homework and found that it's
1:04:59
not only true, it's probably worse
1:05:02
than we thought.
1:05:03
If you have
1:05:05
confidence in our Pentagon,
1:05:08
first of all, you're the
1:05:10
one.
1:05:12
If you have, if you believe that our Pentagon
1:05:15
is still the same Pentagon,
1:05:18
you are sorely
1:05:20
mistaken. And I'm going to give
1:05:22
you the story that you will not hear anywhere
1:05:24
else, an exclusive story. I'm
1:05:26
going to give it to you here after the bottom of the hour break.
1:05:29
So stand by for that.
1:05:33
It's shameful and
1:05:36
a little bit terrifying, quite honestly, a little
1:05:38
bit terrifying. Did you see Tucker
1:05:40
Carlson's interview with Orban? I did not see
1:05:42
it. I saw some of the coverage of it, though. I
1:05:44
bet he goes to Putin next.
1:05:47
Interesting. Yeah,
1:05:48
I bet he goes to Putin
1:05:50
next. I bet he's going to interview Putin. It seems
1:05:54
the coverage I've seen in the media is like,
1:05:56
well, this was a pro-Russian interview and...
1:05:59
No, it's not.
1:05:59
And they were Vladimir Putin is
1:06:02
Tucker Carlson's best friend. Orban does not like Putin.
1:06:04
Really? No. That's what the
1:06:06
that's what the coverage I saw said. I
1:06:09
mean I
1:06:10
He of course know that the media does this
1:06:12
but yeah, was there any indication of this? He
1:06:15
just said he wanted peace right he wanted to get this over
1:06:17
with. Yeah, he's like there's no way to win
1:06:19
this This is this will mean World War
1:06:21
three and I think he's right.
1:06:24
I think he's right. Definitely risking it There's
1:06:26
no question. I mean, he's pro-china,
1:06:29
but he's not pro-russia. Okay, he's
1:06:31
not pro-russia Neither one is a good one.
1:06:33
No, it's not but Glenn back program

1:08:05
So Monday, an
1:08:08
Iranian female singer put
1:08:12
out a music video expressing support for
1:08:14
Iranian women in protesting against the
1:08:16
hijab mandates
1:08:18
and encourage women to remove
1:08:20
their hijab. Well, no,
1:08:23
not there. So she's in jail now, just
1:08:26
to remind you of how much
1:08:29
we have in common with the Iranian
1:08:32
rulers, not the people,
1:08:34
but the rulers. A
1:08:35
couple of days ago, NPR continued
1:08:39
the assault on Senator Tommy Tuberville
1:08:42
saying, I'm
1:08:45
sorry,
1:08:46
Tuberville, thank you, Tuberville, saying
1:08:49
his hold on military promotions
1:08:51
are affecting 650 officers
1:08:54
by the end of the year. Now I don't know about you,
1:08:56
but boo-hoo. Oh no, they
1:08:58
don't get their promotion.
1:09:00
Why is he doing this?
1:09:02
Well,
1:09:03
he is saying, you got to change
1:09:05
the policies, get away from all these woke
1:09:08
policies, and one in particular, abortion.
1:09:12
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has made
1:09:14
three separate and desperate calls pleading
1:09:17
with him to abandon his hold. And
1:09:20
each time the senator's response
1:09:22
has been changed the policies and I'll
1:09:24
release the hold.
1:09:26
It's an impasse. And
1:09:29
I, for one, say good. And
1:09:33
here's why. A
1:09:35
confirmation is not a rubber
1:09:37
stamp.
1:09:38
And if the military is proceeding
1:09:40
down a road that we don't find
1:09:42
acceptable, it is the duty
1:09:45
of our representatives in the Senate
1:09:48
to do their jobs and right
1:09:51
the ship. I'd like to see this
1:09:53
from the Republicans in the
1:09:55
House.
1:09:57
Why did you approve?
1:10:00
The FBI building the new FBI,
1:10:03
but why why would you do that?
1:10:06
You you have the control of the
1:10:08
purse strings Now
1:10:13
Let me ask you do you feel comfortable with
1:10:15
what's coming out of the military lately between
1:10:17
abortion
1:10:18
on base drag queen shows partisan
1:10:21
identity politics Do you
1:10:23
feel comfortable that your
1:10:26
kids?
1:10:27
could join the military and still
1:10:29
be a part of the greatest military
1:10:32
machine of all time or
1:10:34
Do you think you're just putting them in a slaughterhouse?
1:10:38
Should we just greenlight? fundamental
1:10:41
transformation of the most powerful military
1:10:43
machine in the history of mankind
1:10:46
I don't think so but
1:10:48
I don't think people know how bad it
1:10:50
has gotten
1:10:52
The head of the United States strategic
1:10:55
command is General Anthony
1:10:57
Cotton This
1:11:00
was brought to my attention a
1:11:02
few days ago and
1:11:04
We did our homework. We
1:11:06
couldn't believe that this was true,
1:11:08
but it is in
1:11:11
The head of the strategic command
1:11:14
General Anthony Cotton told the Air
1:11:16
Force magazine that the United States
1:11:18
is racist quote I'm
1:11:20
here as a lieutenant general the United States
1:11:22
Air Force and when I see what happened to Ahmed
1:11:25
Arbery Breonna Taylor George
1:11:27
Floyd Rayshard Brooks and the list
1:11:29
goes on and on that could be me
1:11:32
now a couple of years ago cotton said quote
1:11:35
diversity and inclusion are
1:11:37
the tools for national defense
1:11:39
and
1:11:40
That diversity is a war fighting
1:11:43
imperative. I
1:11:46
Don't care what color
1:11:48
or who the person is sleeping with
1:11:51
When they're killing in the name of our country
1:11:54
to save people and to
1:11:56
save human rights
1:11:59
diversity is a war fighting imperative?
1:12:02
Really? You
1:12:04
see, winning wars is no longer
1:12:06
the goal. Worshiping at the altar of the
1:12:08
Church of Woke has now replaced
1:12:11
national defense.
1:12:13
Now, a couple of weeks ago, the
1:12:16
US Strategic Command, remember,
1:12:18
this is General Cotton,
1:12:21
the Strategic Command conducted their 2023
1:12:24
deterrence symposium, and
1:12:27
General Cotton invited an interesting
1:12:30
guest speaker, Dr. Syed
1:12:33
Hossein
1:12:37
Musavian.
1:12:38
Easy for me to say. That was a roller coaster
1:12:40
ride, but I think you got through it. Dr. Syed Hossein
1:12:44
Musavian.
1:12:45
Before kicking off his keynote
1:12:48
speech, he thanked General Cotton
1:12:50
for the invitation and then stated
1:12:53
his goal as this. Today,
1:12:55
I want to talk
1:12:59
about Iran-US mutual
1:13:01
threat perceptions
1:13:03
and deterrence policies. It's
1:13:07
historical perspective, but
1:13:11
more an Iranian perspective.
1:13:13
I'm afraid you don't like it, but
1:13:16
I think it's important to know the other
1:13:18
side, the adversary thinking.
1:13:21
So he was going
1:13:23
to deliver the Iranian point of view. Now,
1:13:25
I don't remember inviting in,
1:13:29
you know, the Russians
1:13:31
to tell us their point of view. You
1:13:33
could bring a former Russian in, it says,
1:13:36
this is the way they think, and
1:13:39
this is why they behave this way, and here's
1:13:41
how you need to position yourself
1:13:44
strategically, but that's not
1:13:46
what he's doing. He
1:13:48
was giving the Iranian point of view
1:13:50
from a guy who believes the Iranian point
1:13:53
of view, and I'm sure
1:13:55
he does that quite often at his current
1:13:57
post at Princeton University.
1:14:00
Now, I find this,
1:14:02
you know, very interesting because he is
1:14:04
very qualified to give the Iranian point
1:14:06
of view towards the United States.
1:14:09
He was born and raised in Iran. His
1:14:11
family had ties to the religious revolutionary
1:14:14
movement.
1:14:15
From 1990 to 1997,
1:14:17
he was the government of Iran's ambassador to
1:14:19
Germany. He held
1:14:22
this post as Iranian
1:14:25
agents murdered four Iranian
1:14:27
dissidents in Berlin at a restaurant.
1:14:30
The Germans demanded
1:14:32
that he be recalled back to
1:14:34
Iran.
1:14:37
He responded with a veiled threat. He said
1:14:39
that if Europe treated Iran the way America
1:14:42
and Israel did, they would be treated the same
1:14:44
way by Iran.
1:14:45
Now, I wonder what that could mean. What does that
1:14:48
mean?
1:14:49
Reference to Iran's attack on the Marine
1:14:51
barracks in Beirut in 83? Or
1:14:53
was that the murder of the Beirut CIA
1:14:56
station chief, William Buckley? Or
1:14:58
maybe it was the 1985 murder of the
1:15:01
U.S. Navy diver when they hijacked TWA
1:15:03
Flight 847. I'm not,
1:15:05
I'm not sure what he was referring
1:15:08
to, but
1:15:08
that's the way Iran treats
1:15:11
America.
1:15:13
Is that the treatment he was talking about? This
1:15:15
is the guy
1:15:17
that General Cotton invited in
1:15:19
to speak at the United Nations Strategic
1:15:22
Command. Now remember, General Cotton
1:15:24
is also a guy who's not really in love
1:15:28
with the United States as we are.
1:15:31
So Musavian
1:15:34
also was Iran's
1:15:36
senior negotiator because it's
1:15:39
bad,
1:15:40
but it's about to get worse. The
1:15:42
senior negotiator for nuclear
1:15:45
issues from 2003 to 2005, and he brought up the nuclear
1:15:50
issue in his keynote,
1:15:52
which he said, of course, was all
1:15:54
our fault.
1:15:56
The attendees had to listen to everything.
1:15:59
according to him, being our fault.
1:16:02
Iran was the victim. We
1:16:05
were the bad guys. Never mind the fact
1:16:07
that he never mentions, you know, obviously
1:16:10
that Iran was stolen by a radical Shia 12
1:16:13
or Islamist group, but he's
1:16:15
fine with that. Never
1:16:17
mentions that eradicating Israel remains
1:16:20
their top priority. Oh, and death
1:16:22
to America as well, but never mind that everything
1:16:25
is America's fault.
1:16:27
Now, is that true? I
1:16:30
mean, really? I mean, is that, is
1:16:32
that true that they,
1:16:34
that we started their nuclear,
1:16:37
their nuclear program? Cause
1:16:39
it doesn't mesh with my notes because
1:16:41
I'm seeing that Iran's first official hacking
1:16:44
program began in 2002. He,
1:16:47
he said this. He said that
1:16:50
in 2010, susneks,
1:16:55
the susnek,
1:16:57
the cyber attack that the United
1:16:59
States did on the Iranian nuclear sites
1:17:02
under the Obama administration convinced
1:17:04
Iran to start up a cyber program.
1:17:07
He said they never had one before. It was
1:17:09
our fault that they were looking to build a missile.
1:17:11
And then it's our fault that they're
1:17:14
doing anything online. Cause they had never
1:17:16
heard or thought about any
1:17:18
kind of hacking program. Now
1:17:22
our side says, yeah, you, you started
1:17:24
in the 2000 years, uh, 2002 eight years before we
1:17:29
attacked you, the
1:17:32
Iranian cyber army and
1:17:34
affiliate of IRGC attacked
1:17:37
Twitter in 2009. So
1:17:39
does, did he not know that?
1:17:41
Did he not know that? Uh,
1:17:44
he would also mention the assassination of
1:17:46
the former Iranian revolutionary
1:17:49
guard commander, Soleimani.
1:17:51
Now listen to this. He
1:17:56
bragged about his government's death
1:17:58
threats after. Soleimani's assassination.
1:18:02
He said he had Trump's officials
1:18:04
trembling with fear, more specifically,
1:18:08
Trump's special envoy for Iran, Brian
1:18:10
Hook, but not him personally.
1:18:14
He said
1:18:15
his threats made Brian's
1:18:18
wife
1:18:20
so afraid that she couldn't
1:18:23
sleep, she cried, and she trembled,
1:18:26
this is what he's bragging about.
1:18:29
Now
1:18:31
I expect this from Princeton.
1:18:34
But why is he being invited by a United
1:18:36
States general to speak at strategic
1:18:39
command?
1:18:41
We are opening the doors to
1:18:43
the very enemies. We're doing
1:18:46
it on our border, and apparently we're
1:18:48
doing it at the Pentagon.
1:18:55
I don't know what's happening with our military, but it's not good.
1:18:58
And
1:19:00
if Tuberville can hold the destruction
1:19:02
of our armed forces off,
1:19:05
I say march on, Senator.
1:19:08
March on.
1:19:11
The main difference between somebody who does
1:19:13
something full-time and somebody who only does the same
1:19:16
thing as a hobby is really
1:19:18
effort and dedication, lots and lots of
1:19:20
effort. And it's especially true in the field
1:19:22
of real estate. No doubt that part-time
1:19:25
agents that you found, you know, a nice
1:19:27
guy, I'm sure he is. I'm sure
1:19:30
your cousin is really going to be
1:19:32
a great real estate agent right now, but is
1:19:34
that the person to sell your house?
1:19:38
Is he going to get the best buying and selling
1:19:41
options for you?
1:19:42
He just hadn't been, he hadn't put in the legwork
1:19:44
yet or the countless hours necessary to
1:19:47
be the best of the best. I started
1:19:49
real estate agents I trust years ago with my
1:19:51
brother because I want you to have
1:19:54
the best service you can get. Go
1:19:56
through the same hassle-free
1:19:58
service that I've had.
1:19:59
always wanted. If
1:20:02
you're used to dealing with real estate
1:20:04
agents, you know, some of them are good.
1:20:07
Full-time ones are even better. But
1:20:09
do those full-time people even know the best
1:20:11
practices and use them? When
1:20:14
you have one of these people working for
1:20:16
you, what you have is a list
1:20:20
of experts, a whole team of experts
1:20:23
at your fingertips. Real estate
1:20:25
agents I trust. The name says
1:20:27
it all. Go there, tell us where you're moving
1:20:29
to and from, could be across the street or
1:20:31
across the country, and we'll find the
1:20:33
best real estate agent at no cost to you.
1:20:36
All you have to do is just let us know.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.
1:21:04
Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. Thanks
1:21:07
so much for tuning in today. The
1:21:10
coast of Florida is – they're expecting
1:21:13
storm surge in some areas of up to 12
1:21:16
feet.
1:21:18
Can you imagine?
1:21:23
I grew up in the Pacific Northwest where,
1:21:26
you know,
1:21:27
the temperatures are moderate. We don't
1:21:29
have massive snowstorms. We don't
1:21:32
have hurricanes. We don't have tornadoes.
1:21:34
It's not hot. You also don't have happiness.
1:21:37
No, we have no happiness and a volcano
1:21:39
once in a while. But other than that,
1:21:42
and I
1:21:42
just, I mean, I just, like
1:21:45
here in Dallas, the
1:21:47
heat in the summer, and I say it every
1:21:49
summer,
1:21:50
but you know, 108 is 108, you know. It's a lot. It's a lot.
1:21:54
And I don't care if it's dry Arizona.
1:21:57
It's a dry heat. No, 121 is 121.
1:22:01
21. And this
1:22:03
isn't a dry heat. It's not Houston,
1:22:05
but I just don't like it. And I can't imagine.
1:22:08
I mean, I'd love to live on the ocean. I'd
1:22:10
love to live, you know. But
1:22:13
the idea that everything you have
1:22:15
just gone, I
1:22:17
don't know. I don't think so. I
1:22:22
just want to live some place where
1:22:24
nature just leaves me alone. Yeah.
1:22:27
And it's surprising how many people have to deal with this
1:22:29
so regularly. Obviously, Florida getting hit today.
1:22:32
You have California, everyone's like,
1:22:34
oh, everything's fine. But then you get the earthquakes.
1:22:36
There's always the potential for the earthquake in California.
1:22:38
Yeah, no, California, I think, is the worst of all
1:22:40
of them. Really? Yeah. Everyone loves
1:22:43
the weather in Southern California. You love the
1:22:45
weather in California. If you can
1:22:47
live through the mudslides, the fires.
1:22:50
You're going to get swallowed by the earth, but when
1:22:52
you're on top of the earth for whatever that period of time
1:22:54
is, it's very nice. Until you're sliding into the abyss,
1:22:57
it's nice. It's nice weather-wise.
1:22:59
Right. I mean, you're not going to have any
1:23:01
money. And you're going to be consulted by homeless
1:23:04
people who are defecating in the streets every five
1:23:06
minutes. But
1:23:06
other than that, it's really wonderful. It's really
1:23:08
great. It's really great.
1:23:11
I think, I mean, I
1:23:14
don't know. I like Arizona even though it's 121 degrees.
1:23:20
You know, I like that because there's just
1:23:22
nothing. You know, I don't like the big funnels
1:23:24
that come out of the sky here occasionally.
1:23:27
Yeah.
1:23:28
You know? Yeah, that can happen.
1:23:30
Yeah, those funnels come down and you're like,
1:23:32
ah, I'm
1:23:35
not really feeling comfortable about this.
1:23:38
It's not like a rainstorm, you
1:23:40
know, or a hurricane that you can prepare
1:23:42
for. It's just all of a sudden, hey, where's
1:23:45
Ellie? Oh, sucked
1:23:47
up into a funnel in the clouds. It's
1:23:49
no big deal.
1:23:51
And if you're not hit by that, you're hit by like
1:23:53
grapefruit size. I don't know how people
1:23:55
survived here early on.
1:23:58
Early on. First of all, you know, you
1:23:59
You didn't know that these things were coming. All
1:24:02
of a sudden, Grapefruit Hale is coming
1:24:04
down at you. What
1:24:07
am I gonna hide under my cow?
1:24:09
My cow's gonna die too. I mean,
1:24:12
I am glad I live in this century. I
1:24:15
mean, this century, not last
1:24:17
century, this century. This one, right. And
1:24:20
here, like the air conditioning thing, we really
1:24:22
do overlook
1:24:24
what an incredible innovation that
1:24:26
is. It has absolutely
1:24:29
opened up half the country for people
1:24:31
to live in. It has. It has. It's a
1:24:33
miracle. It was invented, you know,
1:24:35
in San Antonio. Mr.
1:24:37
Carrier invented it for, I think,
1:24:39
a theater in San Antonio.
1:24:42
And there's no way
1:24:44
I would live anywhere, anywhere
1:24:47
south of the Mason-Dixon line ever,
1:24:50
if it wasn't for air conditioning. As
1:24:52
Joe Biden starts, you know,
1:24:54
that wind power really kicks in. Yeah.
1:24:57
Half the country is gonna go, wait a minute.
1:25:00
What? As, you
1:25:03
know, you have rolling brownouts.
1:25:05
It's not California here. You need
1:25:08
the air conditioning. The
1:25:12
Glenn Back Program.
1:25:14
Oh. Oh.
1:25:16
Oh. Oh. Oh.
1:25:20
Oh. Oh. Oh.
1:25:23
Oh. Oh. Got no room to compromise.
1:25:25
We got to stand together in the course of life. Stand up, stand and hold the light. It's
1:25:28
a new day out, turn around. You know, it's a new day, come around. You know, it's a
1:25:30
new day out, turn around. Oh. Oh.
1:25:32
Oh. Oh. Oh.
1:25:36
Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.
1:25:40
Oh. Oh. Oh. Yes!
1:26:00
Glenbeck program. There
1:26:02
is a former teacher
1:26:04
in Colorado that was too radical
1:26:08
for Colorado. He
1:26:10
went from school to school
1:26:12
to school. He has
1:26:15
called for revolution. He believes
1:26:19
in a forceful, his words, forceful
1:26:21
cultural revolution. You'll
1:26:24
never guess where he is today.
1:26:26
I'll tell you that story in 60 seconds.
1:26:30
Speaking of Colorado, there was a story about
1:26:32
the, what
1:26:34
was he, eight years old? Ten years old?
1:26:37
Twelve years old, thank you. Twelve years old. He
1:26:40
is going to school, got a backpack.
1:26:43
The don't tread on me flag
1:26:45
is on the back of his backpack. School kicks
1:26:47
him out because of course,
1:26:49
as they say, that's racist. No,
1:26:52
it's not. It was all about slavery.
1:26:54
No, it wasn't. That was about
1:26:57
don't tread on me from the founders.
1:26:59
He knew that. So he wasn't
1:27:02
going to take any crap. He went and he talked to his mom.
1:27:04
They kick him out of school. His mom
1:27:07
goes back and says, excuse me, no,
1:27:09
the governor, the Democrat
1:27:11
governor of Colorado actually
1:27:13
backs the kid up. He's back in
1:27:15
school with his backpack and the don't tread on me
1:27:17
flag. Reason why I bring this up is, as I'm
1:27:21
finding more about this kid, his
1:27:23
favorite book is
1:27:26
the monster from Jekyll Island
1:27:29
from the Tuttle twins. We've
1:27:32
been telling you about the Tuttle twins and how
1:27:34
to, how they will make
1:27:37
your kids bulletproof when
1:27:39
it comes to the crap they're going to get in
1:27:41
school. But Tuttle twins has done their
1:27:44
job with this kid. And so is his
1:27:46
parents. Tuttle twins back to
1:27:48
school sale right now, 70% off
1:27:51
their kids books and their
1:27:53
excellent new history books. So
1:27:55
your kid will be able to know and defend
1:27:59
the country. and fend against
1:28:01
all of the stuff that they're being
1:28:04
shoveled, it's garbage. TuttleTwinsBeck.com,
1:28:08
go to TuttleTwinsBeck.com
1:28:10
right now. So
1:28:13
let me tell you the story real quick.
1:28:17
Teacher Colorado, he
1:28:19
gets up and he says all kinds
1:28:21
of things in his
1:28:24
classroom, went on a Marxist rant. He
1:28:26
said, I want to tear some S up for
1:28:28
you, are you ready?
1:28:30
What's happening in our schools,
1:28:32
showing up in our classrooms.
1:28:35
You know, we have ideological
1:28:37
circles up here.
1:28:38
We compete on who knows Marx better,
1:28:40
who knows Lenin better. I'm
1:28:43
a Leninist, I'm a Marxist, kids don't care.
1:28:46
It's important to know the theory, but you have to have
1:28:48
some practices. You have to get out into the streets.
1:28:50
You have to get out into the workplace. You have
1:28:52
to go with your families. We're
1:28:55
just sitting talking in an ideological
1:28:57
circle, our kids still going to schools
1:28:59
that are underfunded, where they're investing
1:29:02
more in their failure than in their success.
1:29:04
Your communist theory won't save
1:29:06
you,
1:29:07
only revolution will save
1:29:09
you. And it won't be the person who understands
1:29:12
Lenin or Marx the best, it will be
1:29:14
a revolution that is led by
1:29:16
the people.
1:29:18
He has said, quote,
1:29:20
I'm for a forceful cultural
1:29:23
revolution.
1:29:26
He goes on, there's much worse things that he said,
1:29:28
but here's the good news. In Denver, the
1:29:31
State House of Representatives had an
1:29:34
open seat
1:29:35
and the Democrats have just appointed
1:29:38
him
1:29:39
to take that seat in the
1:29:41
State House. So you have an
1:29:44
open Marxist in the State
1:29:46
House of Colorado who's calling
1:29:48
for a forceful cultural
1:29:51
revolution.
1:29:53
Well, there is somebody that is running for
1:29:56
the country's house and
1:29:59
she knows. She was
1:30:00
actually supposed to be a guest on this show. She was here
1:30:02
in our green room the day Robin Williams died. And
1:30:07
we haven't had a chance to have her back. She's
1:30:09
now running for the US House. Her
1:30:11
name is Lily Tong Williams. She's
1:30:14
a survivor of Mao's Cultural Revolution and
1:30:17
recognizes all the signs. And
1:30:20
she is now running for Congress in
1:30:23
New Hampshire's second congressional district again.
1:30:26
She's already there now. Welcome. How
1:30:29
are you? Well, thank you
1:30:30
for having me back, Glenn. It's great to see
1:30:32
you both here. Yeah. And
1:30:35
the great introduction. And my
1:30:37
story is like American Dream
1:30:39
story. And
1:30:41
like you mentioned it, I don't
1:30:43
like what's going on in our country today. I'm
1:30:46
very terrified. The terms they're
1:30:49
using and the tactics they're using.
1:30:51
What
1:30:52
does a forceful cultural revolution mean? It
1:30:55
means something like that. It
1:30:57
means use whatever
1:31:00
violence necessary to
1:31:02
destroy the old traditional
1:31:05
cultures, systems, institutions,
1:31:09
also nuclear families.
1:31:12
I have been calling this American Cultural
1:31:14
Revolution for a few years. Me and
1:31:16
other Chinese immigrate. I know. And
1:31:18
we're very, very loud on Twitter.
1:31:21
And to educate people, and I have on
1:31:24
my YouTube channel, I interview
1:31:26
immigrants who fled totalitarian
1:31:28
regimes like Cuba, Venezuela,
1:31:33
and China, and Vietnam.
1:31:35
We are talking about the same thing. What's going on
1:31:37
in our beloved new country?
1:31:40
And lots of people speaking are
1:31:42
used in this country. They don't realize
1:31:45
it because they don't know. They never left it under.
1:31:47
You know, Victor Orban
1:31:49
was talking to Tucker Carlson yesterday.
1:31:52
And he said, you know, you guys have
1:31:54
an ocean between you and Russia.
1:31:57
They occupied Hungary. Listen
1:32:00
to the people of Hungary. We know
1:32:02
how they operate. And I
1:32:05
hear that all the time from immigrants
1:32:07
like you that come here, you
1:32:09
thought you got away from it. You were in a free country.
1:32:12
And now the same exact
1:32:14
language and the same tactics,
1:32:17
it's happening. Yes, I
1:32:19
summarized Mao's features of Cultural
1:32:21
Revolution. I was two years
1:32:23
old to 12 years old. I was
1:32:26
indoctrinated to believe only
1:32:28
communism or religions were
1:32:30
demonized. And I would
1:32:33
go home, tell my Buddhist mom
1:32:35
to say, stop
1:32:37
praying.
1:32:38
It's like you should believe Mao
1:32:41
and believe in communism. I
1:32:43
was a child. Of course, I
1:32:45
did not know. And I feel guilty.
1:32:48
And it's like, thank goodness I did not turn
1:32:50
my mom in. Because during the
1:32:52
Mao's Cultural Revolution, if
1:32:54
you believe in any other religions, you're
1:32:56
Christian, Buddhist, or whatever other
1:32:59
religion you believe in,
1:33:01
you are deemed to be
1:33:02
one of the five black classes.
1:33:06
And you are county revolutionary.
1:33:08
And you should be the enemy of
1:33:10
the people. And don't you feel
1:33:13
like this is, in
1:33:17
an insidious way, almost
1:33:19
the same things that are going on now. They're teaching
1:33:21
our kids that your parents are
1:33:24
wrong on things. Don't listen to
1:33:26
your parents. And your parents should be
1:33:28
shut up. And maybe you should be taken from
1:33:30
them.
1:33:31
I published in my op-ed
1:33:34
when New Hampshire tried to pass Parental
1:33:37
Rights Bill. But sadly, we failed to
1:33:39
pass in New Hampshire. I
1:33:41
published my story growing up
1:33:43
under Mao that there is
1:33:46
always a secret between schools
1:33:49
and the parents. Because they truly
1:33:51
believe
1:33:53
parents have no rights. And
1:33:56
they believe that your children belong
1:33:58
to this state.
1:33:59
Why would I come to America to testify
1:34:02
to support parental rights? Is that
1:34:04
the inherent human rights,
1:34:06
natural rights,
1:34:08
and American value that kids
1:34:10
belong to us, belong to the parents,
1:34:13
not belong to the village, belong to the societies?
1:34:16
It's very scary to see what's going
1:34:18
on here.
1:34:18
So you've been in Congress, and I would
1:34:21
imagine you know the Declaration of Independence
1:34:23
and the Constitution better than a lot of the
1:34:26
Americans that you surf with.
1:34:28
That's what
1:34:29
brought me to this country. When I was
1:34:32
in law school
1:34:33
in China, third year, I
1:34:35
was looking for something because I was
1:34:37
totally depressed, lost,
1:34:40
because I was told to study law. It's
1:34:42
not for justice. It's not for
1:34:45
equality. It's actually Communist
1:34:47
Party's tool to govern
1:34:49
the people. So I become
1:34:51
very- But you didn't know that at the time when you first
1:34:53
got in. You were still part of the
1:34:55
brainwashing. Well, when I started to ask
1:34:57
questions, when Mao died, when I was 12
1:35:00
and then 14 years old, and the
1:35:02
Party said Mao
1:35:04
is not a god. Mao
1:35:06
actually was a human being, and
1:35:08
he made a mistake. So
1:35:11
I was talking to myself,
1:35:13
oh,
1:35:14
let me say I was lied to.
1:35:16
I was chanting non-live qianmai Mao
1:35:18
for straight six years in government
1:35:21
schools. He was like a god to
1:35:23
me because I went home demonized
1:35:26
my own mother who is a Buddhist. And
1:35:28
then I say long live qianmai Mao 10,000
1:35:31
years, double 10,000 years. That's
1:35:33
one million years. How did he die? I
1:35:36
had a little brain left. I was asking
1:35:38
that question inside of my head when he died.
1:35:41
And then later Party said, okay, he was
1:35:43
a human being. I was totally lost.
1:35:46
And I said, I'm going to study law. When
1:35:48
I have a chance to go to college, I'm
1:35:51
going to transform China to
1:35:53
a rule of law society, no longer a
1:35:55
rule of math. But I was wrong. I
1:35:57
realized I could not achieve that dream in
1:35:59
China. because I realize there's
1:36:01
a one party dictatorship, but
1:36:04
I went to this dancing party and
1:36:06
I made foreigners, and
1:36:09
I made one American student,
1:36:11
and later he asked me to visit him
1:36:13
in the foreign students dormitory, and
1:36:16
he's the one who told me about the Declaration
1:36:19
of Independence and the US Constitution.
1:36:22
My life will turn on. I
1:36:24
have individual rights and liberty.
1:36:27
After that,
1:36:28
he put America in my head,
1:36:31
and I was talking to myself,
1:36:33
you know, oh, I have individual
1:36:35
rights. I shouldn't have to report
1:36:37
who I'm gonna see when I go to see him, when
1:36:40
I supposed to register, at the
1:36:42
dormitory door to say who I'm gonna
1:36:44
meet. What is my major? Where's
1:36:46
my dormitory address? There was guard
1:36:49
at each foreign student
1:36:52
and the scholars' buildings, so
1:36:54
I did not have a right to talk to anybody,
1:36:57
had to report it, so I was
1:36:59
very embarrassed, and I slipped into his
1:37:01
building a couple times talking
1:37:04
more about USA, and
1:37:06
I thought, oh, this is a great country.
1:37:09
All men are created equal,
1:37:11
and
1:37:12
I said, what do you mean? He said, you
1:37:15
are born Chinese, and you have different
1:37:17
skin color, but you are created
1:37:19
by God. You have individual
1:37:22
rights by being you,
1:37:23
born, by being you.
1:37:26
My life came on and never turned off,
1:37:28
so I said, oh, this is a cool country. Someday
1:37:31
I have to leave China, and this is a country
1:37:33
I will come,
1:37:35
so I always had America in my
1:37:37
mind. So it's like third year. How
1:37:39
difficult, because it was so foreign to you,
1:37:42
we say we hold these things to
1:37:44
be self-evident.
1:37:45
How long did it take you to realize
1:37:48
that that was self-evident? I mean, when he
1:37:50
said those words at first, you couldn't
1:37:53
have understood.
1:37:53
No, I was puzzled. That's why I asked him,
1:37:55
what do you mean? What is self-evident
1:37:57
mean? Because in China, I grew up in...
1:37:59
In a communist country, their rights
1:38:02
are collective sense, workers'
1:38:05
rights. So my parents are illiterate
1:38:07
workers, they have workers' rights, peasants'
1:38:10
rights, and the soldiers' rights, teacher
1:38:12
rights, women's rights, all collective sense.
1:38:15
I never heard
1:38:16
individual has a right. Wow.
1:38:19
And that was just, I couldn't
1:38:21
quite get it. So that's why I
1:38:23
had to go back. And when I went back,
1:38:25
I already started rebelling, I'm not gonna register.
1:38:28
So I did not register at the door because
1:38:31
I knew what we were talking about is
1:38:33
supposed to be not PC. I
1:38:36
will get into trouble to say, I'm gonna spend
1:38:38
lots of time with this American
1:38:40
student. So I just slicked
1:38:42
in, slicked out. But I feel like
1:38:45
there's something excitement
1:38:47
in me. So when you came here, you
1:38:50
didn't plan on running for Congress until
1:38:52
you started seeing things go wrong.
1:38:54
We're talking to Lily Tong Williams. She's
1:38:57
a candidate for the US House in
1:39:00
New Hampshire. She's already a Congress
1:39:02
person.
1:39:03
No, I'm not, yeah. I'm not elected, yeah.
1:39:05
I thought you were already, I thought you were running for a second. I did not win
1:39:08
last year. Oh, you did win last year, okay. Yeah,
1:39:10
so I was on your radio show last year.
1:39:12
Talk about ESG last year, right? Yeah,
1:39:15
yeah. So what is the thing that you
1:39:17
are going to, what is the thing you're gonna
1:39:19
change? What is the thing that you're going in to fight?
1:39:22
Well, I'm trying to use my stories
1:39:24
to remind people
1:39:26
why America was my promised
1:39:29
land. When I was in China, dream
1:39:31
about more freedom and the dream
1:39:33
about just leaving my
1:39:36
American dream. And it took
1:39:38
me 20 years actually in this country,
1:39:41
learning English, learning the culture
1:39:43
to get rid of the indoctrination
1:39:45
I received. And throughout my 24 years,
1:39:49
living in China under one party,
1:39:51
CCP dictatorship, we
1:39:53
don't want go down the wrong path because
1:39:56
there are lots of people including some
1:39:58
electing to Congress.
1:40:00
and push for socialist policies.
1:40:03
And now I feel like
1:40:05
there's some kind of like, for example, when you talk
1:40:07
about work and cultural revolution,
1:40:10
I feel like there is some kind
1:40:13
of things going on trying to defeat
1:40:16
America. And I saw
1:40:18
that America is a free country based
1:40:21
on individual rights and liberty like
1:40:23
our forefathers put
1:40:26
into founding documents. But our
1:40:28
young people today remind me my
1:40:30
youth.
1:40:31
I was a young pioneer, Red Guards,
1:40:33
I was totally brainwashed, and
1:40:35
my parents had no rights. I
1:40:38
just, I couldn't even sleep last couple
1:40:41
years, especially during the riots and the
1:40:43
burnings. It's like, what's going on?
1:40:45
I feel like something, history
1:40:48
is repeating itself. And
1:40:50
I feel it's my duty to come out,
1:40:53
to tell my stories for the whole
1:40:55
country to hear me and
1:40:57
my unique voice matters.
1:41:00
So we have to have a courage now to
1:41:02
speak the truth, even though I have been targeted
1:41:05
by CCP. I bet you have. To say, shut
1:41:07
up! In this country, you are traitors, like
1:41:09
a traitor to who? I'm an American citizen.
1:41:12
I have a free speech and I
1:41:14
have a citizen's duty to tell the
1:41:16
truth. So if I say my country
1:41:18
is getting destroyed by the
1:41:21
Marxists and socialists and
1:41:23
young people who don't know what freedom
1:41:25
is about, it's my duty to come
1:41:27
out to warn people. I
1:41:30
don't want to relive another socialist
1:41:33
country. I don't want my children
1:41:35
to lose their American dream.

You know I think it's going to be honestly
1:43:14
the immigrants who came here from countries
1:43:17
like this and Alcoholics that have a chance
1:43:19
of saving us
1:43:21
What about immigrant alcoholics how they're even
1:43:23
that's twice the power it is twice the power
1:43:25
it's me, but you know it's people who have lost
1:43:28
Everything or have given up
1:43:30
everything for this life
1:43:33
to be able to live here because they chose
1:43:36
it or
1:43:36
Like me an alcoholic people
1:43:39
who
1:43:39
who have lost everything and know what the
1:43:41
only thing is that's important I have the media always
1:43:43
tries to say our conservatives are anti-immigration And
1:43:46
it's like I don't see that at all from conservatives
1:43:49
no illegal immigration yes We
1:43:51
have a major problem with people breaking the law that is 100%
1:43:54
true, but I think I think conservatives appreciate
1:43:57
immigrants in ways that
1:43:58
the left do not You know,
1:44:01
you see people come from other countries.
1:44:03
I mean, this story is an incredible story. And
1:44:06
it's that sort of appreciation.
1:44:08
It's the exact opposite of your typical
1:44:11
Antifa member who thinks, oh,
1:44:13
you know, this country sucks. It's
1:44:15
always been nonstop oppression. It's awful.
1:44:17
When someone comes from another country and has actually
1:44:19
experienced that stuff in real life and
1:44:22
they come here, you realize how much
1:44:24
they appreciated it. You know, it's amazing. Christians
1:44:28
are always started by usually rich 20-somethings.
1:44:31
And
1:44:34
every 20-something in our society
1:44:37
is rich in the world's eyes. And
1:44:40
they have nothing to do
1:44:43
but think and complain and,
1:44:45
you know, be a revolutionary because I
1:44:47
go against the grain, yeah, and because I
1:44:49
know my parents are stupid. And
1:44:51
it's always that, always that. That's
1:44:54
a little old now, but it was a few years ago. It
1:44:56
was if you are at our poverty
1:44:59
level, our
1:44:59
poverty level in the United States, so in the
1:45:02
worst situation possible, you are better off
1:45:04
than 85% of the rest of the world. Not
1:45:07
the rest of the world's poor, but
1:45:09
all the people in the rest of the world. If
1:45:11
you're at our poverty level, you're better off than 85% of them. And
1:45:15
that doesn't even include the freedoms and such.
1:45:17
That doesn't calculate. That's just financial. Look
1:45:19
at this. Look at the way America,
1:45:21
who even the poverty line people
1:45:24
are better off than 85%. Look
1:45:26
how we just hoard everything. Damn
1:45:28
straight, yo. That's how that...
1:45:30
Proud of it! Proud
1:45:32
of it! Look,
1:45:35
there's a reason why this has worked. We're
1:45:37
not hoarding it. There is enough
1:45:39
for everybody. You just have to apply
1:45:41
the principles. And honestly, I
1:45:44
bet that stat isn't quite as impressive
1:45:46
as it was a few years ago. I bet
1:45:48
not. Because of that difference, because we've had
1:45:50
a little bit of a pullback
1:45:51
to the wrong direction,
1:45:54
and the rest of the world, while they're
1:45:57
still... I'd still
1:45:59
rather live here than anywhere.
1:45:59
else have adopted
1:46:02
some of the things that capitalism brings
1:46:04
and have improved things. And thankfully, thank
1:46:06
God for that. You know, billions of children
1:46:09
now are living lives, instead of dying
1:46:11
at eight years old, they're living longer lives
1:46:13
and are able to be fed and well nourished.
1:46:16
It's a great innovation capitalism has brought
1:46:18
to this country. We're happy to share it. You
1:46:20
should embrace it. The rest of the world, and
1:46:22
a lot of them don't. And quite
1:46:25
honestly, a lot
1:46:27
of us don't either. Lately, it seems like more
1:46:29
and
1:46:29
that's the problem. All
1:46:32
right. Back in just a second. One more.

the crash of 08 and
1:47:01
they're going to keep surviving because
1:47:03
they

take an interest in you.
1:47:07
Considering what interest rates are doing right now
1:47:09
to the American people,
1:47:10
you need a company like

this.
1:47:14
They don't work for the banks. They work
1:47:16
for you. They have salary based mortgage
1:47:18
consultants, which means they don't get a bonus
1:47:21
on you go to a bank and they're trying to jam
1:47:23
you into something because the bank is pushing that.
1:47:26
They don't charge any upfront or hidden fees. And

1:48:16
Hello America, welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're
1:48:19
glad you're here. I don't know if you saw the
1:48:21
Tucker interview with Orban. I
1:48:25
don't know how I feel about Victor Orban
1:48:27
other than he's right for his country. He
1:48:30
would not be necessarily good for our
1:48:33
country. Um, you know, I don't, I don't
1:48:35
know, but, uh,
1:48:37
you know, there, there are different
1:48:39
things. For instance, Putin
1:48:42
is really horrible, really
1:48:44
horrible.
1:48:45
However, to keep that
1:48:48
country together
1:48:50
and not go into chaos, you need
1:48:52
somebody like that. Okay.
1:48:53
I don't, I don't like that,
1:48:55
but it's like, you know, you get rid of
1:48:58
Saddam Hussein and the entire thing melts
1:49:00
down
1:49:01
because, you
1:49:02
know, we divided the Middle
1:49:04
East up
1:49:05
and made these warring,
1:49:08
uh,
1:49:09
tribes, if you will,
1:49:11
into a country. And then we
1:49:13
said, yeah,
1:49:15
he'll keep them, uh, down and
1:49:17
they never wanted to be united.
1:49:20
So the, the, the
1:49:22
question is, do we want to be united? Tucker
1:49:26
said to him, his last question was,
1:49:28
uh,
1:49:31
you had a tough election and
1:49:32
Americans don't know,
1:49:35
but
1:49:35
millions of their tax dollars
1:49:37
went against you and for
1:49:40
the other candidate who I don't even know. Did,
1:49:43
do you know who that was too?
1:49:44
Who wrote, who ran against Victor Orban? I
1:49:47
don't know.
1:49:47
I don't have any idea. I didn't
1:49:49
even know Victor Orban was really going through
1:49:52
an election because he's not
1:49:54
of my concern. And
1:49:57
why is our state department.
1:49:59
picking winners and losers in
1:50:02
other countries.
1:50:04
That's reprehensible. Reprehensible.
1:50:09
Yeah, and most, I
1:50:11
mean, like, you know, certainly we've
1:50:14
opposed
1:50:16
brutal dictators before and-
1:50:19
He's a member of NATO, I believe. No,
1:50:21
I'm not saying this particular case.
1:50:23
I'm saying in some cases, I think it's appropriate
1:50:26
for us to oppose- Sure. And
1:50:28
sometimes we've done it, obviously, militarily behind
1:50:30
the scenes, but even just rhetorically, I think
1:50:32
it's okay to say- Rhetorically is fine.
1:50:35
Yeah, to say, hey, these, you know,
1:50:37
they should change what they're doing. But you want money
1:50:39
going into ad campaigns and everything else? No,
1:50:42
that's ridiculous. That is ridiculous.
1:50:44
Can you imagine
1:50:46
if Russia was actually buying
1:50:48
ad campaigns and had money
1:50:50
behind the, you know, one candidate or another?
1:50:53
Imagine if, you know, let's say $20 million
1:50:56
was given to Joe Biden by China
1:50:58
and-
1:51:00
All right, that's a bad example, but
1:51:02
we don't accept that.
1:51:05
And here we are doing it. We should generally
1:51:07
keep our nose out of everybody else's business. Keep our nose out of everybody's
1:51:09
business. People rule their nations
1:51:11
in all sorts of weird ways that we're not comfortable
1:51:13
with, and that's okay. And so he
1:51:16
said, so Tucker said,
1:51:18
you know, you were in a tough election. It
1:51:20
didn't end up that way.
1:51:22
He won in pretty much a landslide.
1:51:26
And he said, did
1:51:28
you ever think about putting your opponent in jail?
1:51:33
And he said, no, that's not the way we
1:51:35
do things in Hungary. He said, that's the way the communists
1:51:38
did it.
1:51:39
He said, we don't do that in Hungary. He said,
1:51:41
I didn't think you did that in your country.
1:51:44
And he then went on and said something really
1:51:47
important.
1:51:48
The reason why you don't do
1:51:51
that
1:51:52
is because you will never get
1:51:54
the country to reunite. You
1:51:57
will forever separate as a-
1:51:59
us versus them.
1:52:03
Because one side won't forgive
1:52:05
you
1:52:06
for doing that. And
1:52:08
then the other side will say, really,
1:52:11
you're going to play that game? I'll do it to you.
1:52:13
And you immediately divide
1:52:15
your country. He said, the president
1:52:18
of a country, if you want
1:52:20
it to stay together,
1:52:23
has got to be a uniting force
1:52:25
and somebody who is saying, all
1:52:27
citizens, all citizens,
1:52:30
I represent.
1:52:34
When's the last time you heard that? Now, this is supposedly
1:52:36
coming from a fascist. And
1:52:39
in our country, that's probably what
1:52:41
you would call him.
1:52:43
But in his country, it, I don't
1:52:45
think, I mean, the people are electing him
1:52:47
handily.
1:52:50
Could it turn out horribly? Yeah, it could.
1:52:52
I don't know.
1:52:54
But the things he says, some of them make sense
1:52:56
like that. You don't arrest
1:52:59
your opposition or
1:53:02
you will forever divide your
1:53:04
country. Cannot believe that needs to be said, especially
1:53:06
in this country,
1:53:07
especially right now, especially with this particular
1:53:10
ex-president who was
1:53:11
harangued on the campaign trail
1:53:13
by the media constantly
1:53:17
because his audiences were chanting, lock her
1:53:19
up. And they all said, that's, it's
1:53:22
a banana republic. You can't do that. You can't
1:53:24
even chant that. He didn't, this wasn't talking about
1:53:26
the actual arrest. This was talking about a chant
1:53:28
in a rally,
1:53:29
which most people, I think, believed, you know,
1:53:32
like, there, no one really believed
1:53:34
that it was necessarily going to happen. I mean, maybe not no
1:53:36
one. I guess some people did. And then
1:53:38
some people, I thought it was, I didn't want
1:53:41
him to do it, you know, lock her
1:53:43
up.
1:53:43
It went through the system. Right.
1:53:45
The system was flawed. Leave it alone.
1:53:48
But I thought she should have gone to jail. Yeah.
1:53:50
And I think there's that you can argue
1:53:52
it's not the right place or the night, the
1:53:54
right way to talk about it in a political rally.
1:53:57
Like I can understand that point of view. However,
1:53:59
I don't,
1:53:59
understand the point of view,
1:54:01
saying that and then
1:54:04
cheering on every new
1:54:07
indictment or lawsuit that Donald
1:54:09
Trump faces. We
1:54:12
all understand, looking at a system like this, when you're
1:54:14
talking about two political parties going against
1:54:16
each other, we all understand that
1:54:20
the law could be used as a
1:54:22
weapon in that battle. When one side
1:54:24
has power, they can use the law
1:54:27
against the other side.
1:54:28
We've always stayed away from that, or almost
1:54:31
always stayed away from it in our nation's history.
1:54:34
But a couple of the reasons why is we have
1:54:36
real pressure releases
1:54:38
to that system. We have the
1:54:41
voting, we have a democratic process
1:54:44
that allows people to say, hey, we're going to take
1:54:46
this on our own. We're going to look at all this on our own. Don't
1:54:48
go to get in the way, don't try this with your
1:54:50
one party attacking the other party legally. Let
1:54:53
us get involved, we're going to make that decision. That
1:54:55
pressure valve is there. And the other one is
1:54:57
impeachment, where
1:54:58
you have a process that, while it
1:55:01
is political, is really out in
1:55:03
the open. And you can hold the
1:55:06
people who make those votes responsible if you
1:55:08
think they're misusing that power.
1:55:10
Instead, what we're doing here is going around both
1:55:13
of those things.
1:55:14
And look, we all understand if someone
1:55:16
decided it was a serial killer and was also president,
1:55:18
they should go to jail. There's no question about that. But
1:55:21
the standard should be really high. The
1:55:23
standard level of proof should
1:55:25
be really high. I talked to someone who is
1:55:27
more in favor than I am of Trump going to
1:55:30
jail for all of this stuff. And
1:55:32
I said, look, you better have
1:55:35
Donald Trump on tape
1:55:37
saying, I know I
1:55:39
lost the election. However,
1:55:42
I'm going to manipulate this process because I
1:55:44
should remain in power because I'm super duper
1:55:46
awesome. You should have him on tape saying
1:55:48
that. And they said, well, we'll never get that. And
1:55:51
you know what? You probably won't. But
1:55:53
what does that tell you?
1:55:55
That tells you that you should have a standard that
1:55:57
looks toward that level of evidence.
1:56:00
And if you don't have it, you shouldn't
1:56:02
go down this road. Use these other
1:56:04
paths that have been provided to you.
1:56:06
And to go down this road with like, well,
1:56:10
a lot of people that Donald Trump
1:56:12
despised told him he was wrong
1:56:14
is not a legitimate level of
1:56:17
evidence in this case. You have to do better than
1:56:19
that. You should have to do better than that. Because
1:56:21
while we say, yes, no one's above the law, the standards
1:56:24
for politicians in some ways should
1:56:26
be higher. The reason for
1:56:28
that is not because they have some level of
1:56:32
royalty,
1:56:33
but because we know the motivations
1:56:35
of the political system. We know
1:56:38
that one side is going to try to take out their opponents.
1:56:41
So you have to guard against that and make it
1:56:43
really super clear. If you're going to go
1:56:45
throw a president in jail, man, that evidence
1:56:47
must be really, really crystal
1:56:49
clear. And the crime must be really, really
1:56:52
high on the scale.
1:56:53
Well the Democrats used to know that. They
1:56:56
used to at least espouse that with Bill Clinton,
1:56:59
that it has to be really, really super high. Yeah,
1:57:02
that's true. Now it's weird because I don't know how super,
1:57:04
super high it has to be because
1:57:08
literally
1:57:09
there doesn't seem to be any crimes
1:57:12
here.
1:57:12
I don't know. The
1:57:15
racketeering thing is so weak, so
1:57:17
weak. They're going to have problems with that.
1:57:20
They're going to have problems with
1:57:22
it. With the charges. That'll go away. The
1:57:24
thing in New York is super, super weak. The
1:57:27
thing in Florida I
1:57:29
think is really weak
1:57:32
just because of precedents.
1:57:34
Joe Biden
1:57:36
had records that he had when he
1:57:39
was in the Senate. He
1:57:41
still had them.
1:57:43
So come on, you can't ... I know. Look,
1:57:46
I think he didn't help himself there. No, I know
1:57:48
that. He made his life more miserable
1:57:50
with that particular one. They're
1:57:53
going to have some legal evidence on that one. It's just to me
1:57:55
the charge is ridiculous.
1:57:58
So here's the thing.
1:57:59
this is what you're saying is
1:58:02
keep the standard high. But I don't understand
1:58:05
the standard because it is
1:58:07
so low, it charges
1:58:10
him with things that everybody
1:58:12
does, and
1:58:14
it seems all politically motivated,
1:58:17
okay? From the White House, it
1:58:19
seems politically motivated. That
1:58:21
should never happen even on our
1:58:23
side, ever.
1:58:25
But then their standard is also
1:58:28
so high that
1:58:30
a president taking money, and
1:58:33
even if it didn't go to him,
1:58:36
but it went to 10
1:58:38
people in his family
1:58:42
through money laundering
1:58:44
routes to shell companies,
1:58:47
I don't know.
1:58:49
Do you, what's higher
1:58:52
than that?
1:58:53
You could say, well, murder.
1:58:54
Well, yeah, murder, that's
1:58:57
bad. But
1:58:59
if it was a crime of passion, it's
1:59:01
still murder in the first degree,
1:59:04
but I got news for you.
1:59:07
He is selling all 350 million of
1:59:09
us out.
1:59:13
You've betrayed the country that
1:59:15
keeps all of us safe. Honestly,
1:59:18
I cannot think of anything higher
1:59:20
than
1:59:20
that. I really can't.
1:59:22
And look, I think the standard should be
1:59:25
high on Joe Biden too.
1:59:27
If all we had was the WhatsApp
1:59:29
message, where
1:59:31
Hunter is saying, hey! I'm sitting here next
1:59:33
to dad. I'm sitting here next to dad. We need
1:59:36
you to make this payment, or we're gonna punish you and hold
1:59:38
this against you, a grudge and get revenge.
1:59:41
That is evidence,
1:59:43
but if we didn't have payments
1:59:46
and all sorts of other pieces of evidence,
1:59:48
it wouldn't be enough. It shouldn't be enough.
1:59:51
It shouldn't just be indications. That sort
1:59:53
of evidence can be judged by the people and
1:59:55
they can say, hey, I think that's too much.
1:59:57
I'm not voting for Joe Biden. And if you...
1:59:59
If you are saying there's not
2:00:02
enough evidence,
2:00:03
well, just this,
2:00:06
everything that Joe Biden told
2:00:08
you was true
2:00:10
is now a proven lie.
2:00:12
It's now a proven
2:00:15
lie.
2:00:15
Nobody in my family made
2:00:18
any money. I didn't know about Hunter's
2:00:20
business. I never talked to any of his business
2:00:22
partners. I never talked to him about
2:00:24
it.
2:00:25
All lies. All lies. And how's there
2:00:28
lies that? Proven lies. They
2:00:30
should not result in a conviction
2:00:32
in a court of law, but they should make you not
2:00:34
vote for this guy.
2:00:36
And that should be enough. That's how we deal with
2:00:38
these things. Maybe it even rises to
2:00:40
the level of impeachment. I think there's a good chance
2:00:43
that it does. I think there's a good chance Republicans
2:00:46
launch an impeachment inquiry based on these
2:00:48
pieces of evidence. And that will give them a lot
2:00:50
more authority to go after more evidence to prove these things
2:00:53
to be true or not.
2:00:54
But you know. I've never seen a case clearer
2:00:57
for impeachment than a president possibly
2:01:00
selling his country out. While in office.
2:01:02
While in office. I mean, that's not the highest of
2:01:04
high crimes for
2:01:09
a political impeachment. I
2:01:11
mean, I think the guy should go to jail.
2:01:13
But more importantly, we
2:01:15
should teach each other the lesson. That
2:01:19
can never, ever happen.
2:01:22
Yeah. And the latest piece of evidence
2:01:25
with the Shokin situation in Ukraine
2:01:27
is amazing. Was it John Solomon telling us about
2:01:29
that? Yeah.
2:01:32
The whole idea was everyone agreed
2:01:34
this guy was corrupt. And that's why Joe Biden was
2:01:36
bragging about withholding a billion dollars of
2:01:38
aid to Ukraine so he would get fired.
2:01:40
Not because of the Hunter Biden stuff. Everyone agreed this
2:01:43
guy was corrupt. And now we learn the
2:01:45
behind the scenes analysis of this
2:01:47
at the time. That the State Department
2:01:49
said he's good.
2:01:51
Give him the
2:01:53
money. Right.
2:01:54
And he said the President
2:01:56
and State Department were with me. Remember? Yeah.
2:01:59
That was totally.
2:01:59
this case. And it was a case that was accepted
2:02:02
by every mainstream outlet.
2:02:04
I honestly, to be frank about
2:02:06
it, had no idea if that guy was good or bad.
2:02:09
Like, who the hell knows? For some Ukrainian
2:02:11
prosecutor, what do I know about that? We
2:02:13
didn't know anything about it at the time. All of
2:02:15
the reporting was, this guy was really bad and of course this
2:02:18
was justified. Well, we now know the State
2:02:20
Department disagreed with that. Years and years
2:02:22
later, that's when we find out.
2:02:24
I mean, if it wasn't for Joe Biden bragging
2:02:26
on that stage that he did this and withheld
2:02:28
this money for this reason, this would be
2:02:30
a much more difficult case to work
2:02:33
through. But he's on tape
2:02:35
saying he did it.
2:02:37
And at the same time, he is sending
2:02:40
hundreds of millions of dollars
2:02:42
over to the exact same
2:02:45
people. I've
2:02:47
talked to you a lot about ESG, the Environmental,
2:02:49
Social and Governance Initiative
2:02:51
that companies are just, I love,
2:02:54
even BlackRock is like, I
2:02:57
love, but I know love quite so much.
2:03:00
They have $9.4 trillion
2:03:02
in assets and now they're rethinking
2:03:05
the ESG stance. They found many
2:03:07
ESG efforts to be overreaching, potentially
2:03:10
not serving the best interest as investors.
2:03:12
So I got to say, if BlackRock
2:03:15
is having second thoughts, well, what does that
2:03:17
say?
2:03:18
By the way, the government is upset and
2:03:20
they're now threatening BlackRock to get back
2:03:23
on these standards. In these
2:03:25
chaotic times, GoldLine is
2:03:27
here with a rock solid offer. When
2:03:30
you pick up 25 quarter ounce
2:03:32
gold Mayflower rounds, you're going
2:03:34
to get 25 one ounce
2:03:36
silver Mayflower rounds absolutely

free. This doesn't extend to
2:03:42
IRA orders, but GoldLine has
2:03:44
