1:02

to But just 60 seconds We'll get to

1:04

it coming up The

1:07

next time you're just standing somewhere in your home Do

1:10

something for me here for a second Look around, think to

1:12

yourself What if I put this open the market? What if I

1:14

put it on the market? What would I get for it?

1:16

What would I need to get ready? Well,

1:19

once you've come down from the panic attack after realizing

1:21

that the answer is so much stuff Realize

1:23

a simple fact What you need is an actual

1:26

expert here You need a real estate agent that

1:28

you can trust An agent that is going to

1:30

know The people he or she trusts do all

1:32

those things They know someone

1:34

who is going to do it right the first time And they

1:36

know whether you should do it or not I

1:39

have a relative who wants to, thinking about selling a house And

1:41

I'm like, I just can't, I have too many things to do in

1:43

this house And we just keep saying, or Don't

1:46

do any of it Don't do one bit of it Just,

1:49

just get out of the house But

1:52

you know, sometimes people don't understand that I

1:54

will say, a real estate agent that you can trust Someone who knows

1:56

the market can help you with those decisions Whether

1:59

you're planning to move or even or even

2:01

just have questions, check them out. realestateagentsitrust.com. The

2:03

name kind of says it all. This is

2:05

a free service to you. Check

2:07

it out now. realestateagentsitrust.com.

2:10

Mm-hmm! Yeah,

2:14

just to follow up on that a bit, we

2:16

were gonna remodel a lot of our

2:18

house, and our realtor said, no.

2:21

Don't do it, right? Don't do it. Don't

2:23

do it. You won't get your money back

2:26

out of it. She did recommend, because we

2:28

had countertops from 2008, so

2:30

we did upgrade that. We upgraded

2:32

countertops, replaced carpeting, where our kids

2:35

had destroyed carpeting. And

2:37

then that was it. That was it. That's

2:39

it, saved us a lot. A fortune, and

2:42

you wind up realizing you're only getting, if

2:44

you get lucky, you get 70% of your

2:46

money back when you do these things. Exactly.

2:48

So they've sometimes, it makes sense, a

2:51

lot of times when you are going to live there and

2:53

enjoy them for multiple years, right? You're just gonna do it

2:55

and then sell it, and

2:57

you might not have the same taste as the

2:59

next person wanting to buy it. That's maybe the

3:02

most critical part, because they want their touches, they

3:04

want their vision for the house. So let them

3:06

have it. Let them do it. We got

3:08

full asking price. Congratulations, that's awesome.

3:10

And this just happened, right? Just happened. We

3:13

sold the house in a week, which was nice. Really?

3:16

Yeah. the interest

3:18

rates are high, prices are going up. That's

3:20

the thing. So you got the realtor situation,

3:23

not to mention, you have a little bit

3:25

of an advantage doing this in Texas. That's

3:28

true. One of the fastest growing

3:30

areas in the country. Yeah,

3:32

and Dallas in particular, this area has been

3:34

very hot for real estate, but there are

3:36

other areas around the country where that's true,

3:39

it's just easier in Texas probably to do

3:41

this. So congratulations. I will

3:43

say, maybe we can get a real

3:45

estate agent that Joe Biden trusts as he moves out of

3:47

the White House come in January. Oh, I can't wait. I

3:49

will pay for the move. Really? If

3:53

he moves out of the White House, and

3:56

I'll pay even more if he'll move out

3:58

early, because that was a good one. That

4:00

would be awesome. But

4:02

yeah, I'll do a GoFundMe page,

4:05

whatever it takes to help him get, you

4:07

know, the Mayflower truck in front of 1600

4:09

Pennsylvania Avenue. That

4:11

is sweet. Yeah. You're just a sweet,

4:13

just a nice guy, right? Yeah, a lot of

4:15

people don't understand that. Partisan politics get in the

4:17

way, not with Pat Gray. Not in this case.

4:19

He will make sure he can push over Biden,

4:22

gets out of that house, even if he wants

4:24

to leave a little early. Yes. You know? Yeah,

4:26

we'll get him right back to Delaware. Wow, that's

4:28

great. Where this Corvette and,

4:30

you know, his ice cream

4:32

parlors. Is the vet parked at Rehoboth Beach,

4:34

or is it in Wilmington? That's what I

4:36

don't know. I think it's Rehoboth Beach. I

4:38

think, I could be wrong on that, but

4:40

it's, wherever it is, he can go

4:43

there, you know, enjoy it. It's

4:45

been interesting to watch the reaction to

4:48

the last couple of days where, if

4:51

you remember, right, and maybe I misunderstood this,

4:54

because it's possible, Pat. Like, there's so much news going

4:56

on. Sometimes you hear things and you don't, you don't

4:58

fully get what's going on. My

5:01

understanding was we did this show on Monday, and

5:03

one of the first things we did on Monday was to

5:06

read a letter from Joe

5:08

Biden, where he very

5:10

clearly indicated he was staying

5:12

in the race. Yeah. Right? That happened, right? That was

5:14

a thing. We talked about that. That was a thing.

5:17

Then we played audio. We didn't

5:19

really get through a lot of it, but we got

5:21

through some audio from the Joe Scarborough experience on

5:23

MSNBC, where

5:26

the, if I remember right, the

5:28

whole tone of that was Joe Biden saying,

5:30

hey, I'm in this

5:33

race. I'm not going anywhere. I'm

5:35

the nominee. I won the

5:37

primary. The debate you're all complaining about, I

5:39

was on stage for it because I was the

5:41

nominee. Like, that's why. So

5:43

it's my nomination. I'm

5:45

staying. No more questions

5:48

about it, right? That was- Yeah, he made it

5:50

pretty clear. Right. Yeah. I

5:52

don't know if Nancy Pelosi heard the show on Monday, but I

5:54

hate to break this to you. Oh, no. Because I know I

5:56

feel like she listens to most of our shows, but

5:59

I don't think she tuned in. in

6:01

on Monday at all or Tuesday or

6:03

any show since the debate. Huh. Because

6:05

she seems to be very confused as

6:07

to what's going on in this new

6:09

clip from MSNBC. It's Nancy Pelosi, and

6:12

she's being asked about

6:14

how Joe Biden

6:16

and whether he's going to stay in the race. And she

6:19

has a different understanding of the situation than I

6:21

do. Hmm. Does he have your support to be

6:23

the head of the Democratic ticket? As long as

6:25

the president has the president, it's up to the

6:28

president to subside if he is going to. We're

6:31

all encouraging him to

6:34

make that decision because time

6:36

is running short. I

6:40

think overwhelming support of the caucus. It's not

6:42

for me to say. I'm not the head

6:44

of the caucus anymore, but he's

6:48

beloved. He is respected. Right.

6:50

And people want him to

6:52

make that decision. He

6:54

has made the decision. He has said firmly

6:57

this week, he is going to run. Do

6:59

you want him to run? I

7:01

want him to do whatever he decides to do.

7:04

Sorry, decide who's running. That's the way it is. Whatever

7:06

he decides, we go with. Wow.

7:09

That is not a ringing endorsement from Nancy

7:11

Pelosi. It's also a lot of words that

7:13

don't exist, like society. I don't know what

7:16

society is. At some point, Joe

7:18

Biden needs to make fun of Biden for

7:22

his speech issues. She's

7:25

got some. She's got them too. I mean, she's

7:27

getting much worse too. I mean, this is like.

7:29

Sounds like she's drunk most of the time. Yeah.

7:32

And I think it's just. I don't know. Is it age

7:34

or is it alcohol? I mean,

7:36

it's a morning show. Yeah, actually, I'm not

7:38

sure. I'm not sure either. I do. It's

7:40

weird because we've been watching these same figures

7:43

the entire time we've been doing talk radio,

7:46

right? Like the whole time. It's been the

7:48

same people basically in charge. I feel like

7:50

we're standing out in the

7:52

park watching

7:54

Mount Rushmore sort of just melt.

7:58

Like it's really weird. Like all these

8:00

big figures, they just get worse and

8:02

worse and worse every time you see

8:04

them. Mitch McConnell,

8:07

Nancy Pelosi, obviously

8:09

Joe Biden, and

8:11

so many more, and

8:13

they don't leave office. They

8:16

stay in their jobs. They just get,

8:19

it's like if Michael Jordan came

8:22

back today and we had

8:24

to watch him play, I mean, he probably still average

8:26

14 a game, but it would

8:28

be tough. I mean, he had Michael Jordan, he comes back,

8:30

he wins all these championships, and then he came, remember he

8:32

came back with the Wizards for a couple of years, and

8:34

he was still pretty freaking good. Yeah, he was. He was

8:37

like 40 years old, he's still scoring 20 points a game,

8:39

but like you could tell, there's a big drop off. If

8:42

he, you know, it just seems like, what if he just kept playing

8:44

until he was 80? I mean,

8:46

that's what it's like watching these people. It

8:49

is. They can't do the basic things that

8:51

they used to do. Joe Biden was

8:53

never obviously a great politician.

8:55

He has accomplished very little in his life.

8:58

This is obvious to anyone who isn't a Democrat begging

9:00

him to get out right now. Right

9:03

now, the way to get him to get

9:05

out of the race is to say,

9:07

you've been incredible. This presidency has

9:09

been incredible. This three and a half years

9:12

has been the most amazing three and a

9:14

half years of any presidency of all time.

9:16

You are so great, Joe, get out. I

9:19

understand that approach. You're playing up to

9:21

his ego, you're trying to persuade him,

9:24

but we should draw the line here,

9:27

Pat. This is not true.

9:30

Joe Biden- The three years of incredible presidency

9:32

is not true? Yeah, it's not true. Joe

9:35

Biden has not been a good president at all. He's

9:37

been a very bad president. Very bad.

9:40

A piece of evidence to support this would be

9:43

the fact that he had a 36% approval rating

9:46

before the debate. Yeah. No

9:48

president, to my knowledge, give me a

9:50

call, correct me if I'm wrong, but

9:53

no president in recent history has

9:55

been able to recover from approval ratings like

9:58

this and win the presidency. Done.

10:02

Let me give you the list of the names. I'm done.

10:04

It doesn't

10:06

happen. It doesn't

10:08

work. Give me that list again. Sure, right here. I'm going to give

10:10

you one more time. Here it comes. Some of the name. Done.

10:13

Okay. Wow. It's

10:16

an extend- and that's, I believe- That was the

10:18

extended list? The extended list. Okay. George

10:24

W. Bush did come

10:26

back from a slight polling

10:28

issue in this time. Now, of

10:30

course, George W. Bush was

10:32

not in his 80s when he did

10:34

such a thing, but

10:36

he wasn't- Mid-50s, if I

10:39

remember correctly. Yeah. He was in his

10:41

prime as a politician, and

10:43

he was not down as much, and it

10:45

was not dealing with the types of things that Joe Biden

10:47

is dealing with. I mean, it's

10:49

possible to come back. It doesn't mean that this election

10:51

is decided. In fact, it's, I

10:54

would argue, uncomfortably close. I

10:56

mean, considering what we saw yesterday, what

10:58

we didn't see as

11:01

aftermath of that debate was a

11:03

massive polling collapse for Democrats. We

11:06

didn't see that. We didn't see an 8-point, 9-point

11:09

drop. We saw, I don't know,

11:11

a three-point movement, the normal movement of a blowout

11:13

debate. That to me

11:15

was worse than a blowout debate, and there was certainly

11:17

a part of me hoping that it would be even

11:20

larger. It might wind up being that way. We don't

11:22

know yet. But politicians,

11:25

presidents running for reelection that want to

11:27

run for reelection and have a 36%

11:29

approval rating don't

11:31

win reelection. That's just

11:33

the way this typically works. It's

11:36

not impossible. Donald Trump obviously brings

11:38

some unique things to

11:40

the table in an election. We've talked many,

11:43

for many years about Trump derangement syndrome,

11:45

where people, I mean, to

11:47

define that generally, we're

11:50

talking about irrational hatred for Donald Trump

11:52

no matter what. So when you

11:54

have someone who has a syndrome named after him, there's a

11:56

lot of people who have a syndrome named after

11:58

him. People who

12:00

just will vote against him no matter what,

12:02

even if his opponent is incoherent. And so

12:04

that's gonna make it to be a close

12:06

election no matter what, I think. I

12:09

don't think you're gonna get even a Barack Obama,

12:11

John McCain type of result, which was,

12:13

I think we talked about it earlier, 54-45, I

12:16

think was the number on that, if I'm remembering right. It

12:18

was eight or nine points. That's

12:20

about as big a blowout as you can possibly

12:22

come up with in today's politics, with

12:24

people polarize the way they are. I

12:27

don't think you're gonna see that here. You

12:29

should. It's really hard to imagine

12:32

in this day and age, blowouts like

12:34

we saw with Ronald Reagan, you

12:36

know, who won 49 states. Yeah.

12:40

I can't, can you imagine that happening today?

12:42

No. I mean, Ronald Reagan,

12:45

49 state, including California, which,

12:47

and New York, which you'd

12:49

never see happen today. You'd never see

12:51

that happen. So,

12:54

yeah, it's always gonna be

12:56

close. And it is

12:58

too close for comfort even now, even

13:00

a couple of weeks after the debate

13:02

now. It's two weeks

13:04

on like tomorrow already,

13:07

right? Man, that's gone

13:09

by fast. All right, 888-727-B-E-C-K, more

13:11

coming up in one minute. This

13:16

month, we've been celebrating the birth of our

13:18

nation and remembering the heroes who fought for

13:20

our freedoms. But you know

13:22

that some Americans today still don't have the

13:25

freedom of life and liberty. Tragically, every day,

13:27

thousands of unborn babies' lives are taken against

13:29

their will. I

13:32

don't know, maybe they should be considered Americans

13:34

too. Is this a controversial statement? I guess

13:36

it is these days. Preborn is

13:38

the largest pro-life organization in the country.

13:40

They're leading the charge to put an

13:42

end to the atrocity of abortion. Every

13:44

day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women,

13:46

as well as providing help for up

13:48

to two years after the baby is

13:50

born. When a mother sees her

13:53

unborn child on the monitor, she

13:55

hears that heartbeat, she's twice as likely

13:57

to consider choosing life for her baby.

14:00

business owner, perhaps you can consider a larger

14:02

donation for a write-off because as we

14:04

know the government isn't working to save babies, their

14:08

priority seems to be the opposite these days.

14:10

A donation of $1,000, $2,000, $20,000, all tax deductible and can do so much for so

14:13

many. Get

14:19

involved today, donate, please. Dial pound

14:21

250 and say the keyword baby. It's

14:23

pound 250, say the keyword baby. If you can

14:25

only give $1, $2, $5, that's great too. preborn.com/Beck.

It's sponsored by Preborn.

14:36

10 seconds, station ID. So

14:47

let's say that Joe Biden does step aside

14:51

and it turns out

14:53

that Kamala Harris becomes

14:56

the nominee for the Democrats. Who's

14:58

her vice president going to be? You know

15:00

the rumor I'm hearing is

15:02

Gretchen Whitmer. You imagine

15:04

two women on the ticket? I mean, not that

15:06

long ago where there was one woman

15:08

on the ticket and that didn't even happen.

15:14

To have two women on the ticket, we're moving down this

15:17

path pretty fast now. Is Geraldine

15:20

Ferraro available? I

15:22

don't know if she could step up. I

15:26

just feel uncomfortable. Is she alive? Again,

15:30

is the president alive? I don't

15:32

know that she's any less alive than Biden. That's

15:34

a good point. I

15:38

don't buy Whitmer with Kamala. I

15:41

don't think that would be the choice. I

15:43

could definitely see Newsom as

15:45

a... Yeah, I could see that. I

15:48

could see someone like... Although

15:51

that's California, so that would be an issue, wouldn't

15:54

it? Yeah, to California.

15:56

Again, those problems are real

15:58

but solvable. You can always

16:00

get around them, but that would be an interesting one. You

16:03

know, someone like a, you would probably

16:05

wanna go, what about a Josh Shapiro from

16:07

Pennsylvania? I think that would be a real

16:09

possibility. He's an up and

16:11

coming star. He's from the region.

16:13

They need to, and they need Pennsylvania pretty

16:15

desperately. He'd be a guy I

16:17

think would be, especially not needing to step into the top

16:20

of the ticket, but stepping into that secondary role, I think

16:22

it would be a serious consideration. A lot of this has

16:24

to do too, with what is Kamala's

16:26

relationship with these people. I mean, I have

16:28

no idea. If

16:31

you go by the Barack Obama rule, which

16:33

is don't, the

16:36

Barack Obama rule, if you go back and

16:38

read, you know, his heavily reported biographies,

16:42

is basically like America is a bunch

16:44

of racists. They can't

16:46

take more than one exotic candidate on

16:48

a ticket. This is why

16:51

you had Joe Biden on the ticket. He specifically

16:53

picked him because he was old and

16:55

white. That's not

16:58

like me speculating. This has been heavily

17:00

reported. He picked him because he thought

17:02

the American people couldn't

17:04

deal with another person

17:06

of color on the ticket. They're too racist. They

17:09

couldn't deal with another younger person on the ticket.

17:11

They were too, they

17:13

were, you know. So he needed a racist on

17:15

the ticket. You're saying Joe

17:17

Biden needed a racist on the ticket. What

17:19

evidence do you have of Joe

17:22

Biden being racist? There's, you know, this, but

17:24

it's, you know, not, you're

17:30

not hearing it. I'm not hearing it, no. But

17:33

it's there. My understanding, yeah, well, let's

17:35

hear it. Let's, maybe you have. I

17:37

mean, I might. Okay, well,

17:40

I might have. Maybe you got the

17:42

first sort of mainstream

17:45

American who

17:48

is our ticket and right and

17:50

clean and clean. I

17:54

mean, that's a storybook, man. Storybook, that doesn't

17:56

happen in real life. Can you imagine a

17:59

clean African? American. What

18:01

a storybook that would be. Thank you

18:03

Joe Biden for bringing that analysis to

18:05

us, because I mean, can

18:07

you imagine, we're talking also not about just

18:09

a clean African American, which would be a

18:11

storybook in and of itself, according to Joe,

18:14

but also one that could speak. Not

18:18

articulately. Yes. I'm

18:20

saying you have an articulate, clean.

18:23

I mean, not totally articulate. Yeah,

18:25

sort of articulate. That's like, that's

18:28

another world. Right. But it'd be

18:30

sort of articulate and clean,

18:33

you're saying. And that's what I'm saying. You got

18:35

to keep your storybooks believable, right?

18:37

Like it couldn't possibly happen. Yeah. According

18:39

to the- They got from storybook to

18:41

sci-fi. Right. According to the book of

18:43

Joe Biden, it couldn't possibly happen. You'd

18:45

have an actually articulate, clean black man.

18:47

No. But in this particular situation, you

18:49

have a sort of articulate, clean black

18:51

man. Now, is he sort of clean

18:53

or is he fully clean and only

18:56

sort of articulate? Well, he does say

18:58

clean. He doesn't- He doesn't qualify that.

19:00

He doesn't qualify clean. So I think

19:02

he's talking about, he might have even

19:04

taken a full shower. And by the

19:06

way, we should point out, the only

19:08

reason Joe Biden is president

19:10

is because of the black vote. Somehow

19:12

he was able to survive that statement.

19:14

Yeah, and many more. And many more.

19:17

Problem figuring out whether you're for me

19:19

or Trump and you ain't black. Oh,

19:21

okay. He survived that.

19:23

Yep. And he went to James Clyburn and

19:25

was like, please endorse me. And he did.

19:27

And now, in his moment

19:30

of stress, what is keeping him in

19:32

this office? The Congressional Black Caucus. It's

19:35

incredible. It is incredible. This man

19:38

has said more overtly racist things

19:40

than- Oh, than anybody. Obviously more

19:42

than Donald Trump, who they all

19:44

say is racist. More than any

19:46

presidential candidate going back to, probably

19:48

to LBJ. It's not even close.

19:51

It's not even close. If, and you

19:53

know what? LBJ's comments were in private.

19:55

This guy's done it all publicly. It's

19:58

true. We actually have to- Now

20:01

we know LBJ was a racist,

20:03

however he was saying those things

20:05

not in front of the cameras. This is Joe Biden in

20:08

front of cameras doing it. Yeah. Over

20:10

and over and over again. That's

20:12

how blatant the largest growth in

20:14

population is Indian Americans moving from

20:16

India. You cannot go

20:18

to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin

20:20

Donuts unless you have a slight

20:22

Indian accent to pull it. I'm

20:24

not joking. And he's

20:26

not joking. He's actually being racist right there.

20:28

He's not joking about it. No, he's serious

20:30

about his racism. That's

20:33

great. Incredible. And you've got the

20:35

one where he says that unlike

20:39

black people, Hispanics are diverse in

20:41

their opinions. Oh, I remember that

20:43

one, yeah. All

20:45

blacks think alike. All blacks think

20:47

alike, but Hispanics actually have differences

20:50

in opinions. Individual Hispanics might think

20:52

of something different, unlike obviously blacks.

20:55

Obviously. That's what he said. Over and

20:57

over he's done this kind of stuff. Yeah. And

20:59

yet he is a champion apparently at the

21:01

black community. He's fine. By the

21:03

way, Marj is a little bit off of

21:05

my remembrance of this. It was 53.46 for

21:07

Akhoba Bhabha and John McCain. Only

21:09

a 7-Eleven margin. And I think that is still

21:12

about as big as you can possibly get. If

21:14

you want to go back to the

21:17

days back in the... Ronald

21:19

Reagan 59, Walter Mondale 41. So

21:22

I mean this is a totally different world.

21:24

Reagan beat Carter by nine. You

21:27

know, Bill Clinton won by six,

21:30

five and a half. And

21:33

then he beat Bob Dole by about

21:35

nine. And then since then, it's been

21:37

close pretty much every single time. Even

21:40

in blowout elections, there's only six or seven points. Stand

22:49

Glenn Beck. Avoiding the

22:52

woke mainstream messaging in favor of

22:54

truth. More Glenn Beck in a moment. Unlike

23:17

the African American community with notable

23:20

exceptions, the Latino community is an

23:22

incredibly diverse community. Is

23:24

that true? There it is. Incredible.

23:30

It's just really incredible that he got away

23:32

with that. It's Patton Stu for Glenn today.

23:34

888-727-BECK. I

23:37

like this political story. From

23:40

Politico, Trump's platform has changed

23:43

the GOP's position on abortion

23:46

and it's not just abortion but that's one of

23:48

the big ones and not everyone

23:50

is happy. I

23:53

would be included among not everyone.

23:55

Really? Yeah, I would.

23:57

I would also appreciate the fact that

24:00

the Republican Party has just adopted Trump's

24:03

newfound liberality, I

24:05

guess, on abortion. I, how

24:08

can you do that? Either,

24:11

either you believe that abortion

24:14

is killing a baby or

24:16

you don't. Yeah. Which

24:18

is it? I don't really understand the middle

24:20

ground on it. Yeah, it's hard to understand.

24:22

Either you think it's going to come out

24:24

as a Volkswagen. Right. And it doesn't

24:26

matter what you do. Or you think it's a human child. Or we

24:28

think it's a human child and you need to protect it. Kind

24:31

of the two positions that make sense to me. Now, of

24:33

course, the Volkswagen one doesn't make sense to me and

24:36

therefore I don't support it, but at

24:38

least morally it makes some sense. If you

24:40

believe this is just some weird alien life

24:42

form that occasionally comes out as a boy

24:44

or a girl, maybe you

24:47

could justify not caring whether

24:49

it lives or dies. Or you

24:51

take the, say, Bill Maher position,

24:53

who does believe actually said,

24:55

yeah, it is kind of murder. In fact, it's

24:57

not just kind of murder. It is murder, but

25:00

I'm okay with it. I guess you can

25:02

do that. We're too overpopulated, Pat. You

25:04

got to get the population bomb out of the library. It's

25:06

got a little bit of dust on it and everything in

25:08

it is wrong, but let's just still keep honoring those

25:11

positions. Yeah, this is a weird

25:13

one. It is very weird. I'm

25:16

trying to think through this a little bit, right? I'm

25:18

trying not to be reactionary because I happen to be

25:21

someone who is very pro-life and I

25:23

don't feel that

25:25

equivocation is the correct response

25:28

to this particular issue. You know,

25:31

I have this weird vibe that

25:33

maybe babies should be

25:35

allowed to live. That is weird.

25:37

Wow. I don't know where I came up with

25:39

it. In every case though? I mean, not every

25:41

case, right? Just sometimes. I was thinking like... If

25:43

you feel like it and it's convenient for you.

25:45

No, no, no, no, that's actually not what I'm

25:48

saying. What I'm saying is they should just have

25:50

a chance to live their lives. But

25:52

what if it's inconvenient? What

25:54

if I'm not the CEO of a

25:57

major corporation at the time? I

26:00

might struggle from time to time. No, this makes it much

26:02

more difficult. Now I still have them live. Really?

26:05

Yeah. In all circumstances... Wow, you're

26:07

an extremist. ...children should be allowed

26:09

to live. What kind of right-wing

26:11

kook are you? Yeah. Wow. And

26:13

people will say, well, that's true.

26:15

I mean, what if we lose

26:17

the next Einstein or the next

26:20

Michael Jordan or who knows what we could

26:22

lose? Also, a person who

26:24

makes no difference at all. What

26:27

about the idiot who cuts you off in

26:29

line at Sonic? That person

26:31

also deserves a chance

26:33

to live. All

26:37

people deserve

26:39

a chance to live. If they

26:41

screw their life up once they're

26:43

born, that's on them. Okay. But

26:45

we should be involved in maybe

26:48

allowing babies to live. It's a

26:50

crazy position. It is. It's nutty.

26:52

It's history. And I

26:54

mean, this sincerely, it is

26:56

extreme. Because you want to

26:58

call me, and Pat, you'd be on

27:00

this board bandwagon as well, a pro-life

27:02

extremist. It's probably a fair description because

27:04

our opinion is not widely held for

27:07

whatever reason. It's not. That's true. I

27:09

understand that. That's true. We're in the

27:11

vast minority on that.

27:13

And I will say that

27:16

seems to be the calculation

27:18

of the platform, right? And

27:21

I think a lot of people think that's reasonable

27:23

because you got to get elected. Well, Trump said

27:25

it during the debate. Yep. We have to be

27:27

elected. Well, I

27:29

mean, that is true. And

27:32

I will say under normal circumstances,

27:35

my reaction to this platform, which has plenty of

27:37

good stuff in there as well, like preventing World War

27:39

III, I'm on board for that. Yeah, me too. I

27:41

don't think we should have World War III. I didn't

27:43

like one or two. No. We don't need a third

27:46

one. Let's not have it. Now, you weren't around for

27:48

either one or two, and neither was I. So how

27:50

do you know you don't like it? You know, you

27:52

should always, you should knock something before you try it.

27:54

Right. Right. That's a good

27:57

one. That's why they're trying to get us to

27:59

try this third one. Maybe it'll be better. better

28:01

and more fun than the first two. Yeah. I've

28:03

noticed Democrats usually disagree with the Republicans. I

28:05

mean, they seem to be wanting the World War

28:08

III thing and weird, how they flipped on that.

28:10

So weird. So bizarre. Now

28:12

they would say, of course, they don't want World

28:15

War III. That's what they would say is that,

28:17

well, you guys were all about Iraq and Afghanistan.

28:19

And I would say, yes, I was at the

28:21

time, but I think I've

28:23

learned something over the last 20 years of perpetual

28:25

war. And I'd like to avoid

28:27

that now. It'll teach you some lessons.

28:29

Yeah. Yeah. And I, I remain,

28:32

I think, concerned

28:35

with the geopolitical, fallout

28:38

of doing nothing in

28:41

some of these situations. Like, but I will

28:43

say, you know, it should be a last

28:45

resort. War should be a last resort. It

28:47

shouldn't be the first resort. Yeah. And you

28:49

know, the situation in Ukraine and Russia is

28:51

fascinating because you're right. All of the sudden

28:54

Democrats are so incredibly passionate. All about

28:57

it. It's all they care about now.

28:59

Yeah. They want to be involved.

29:01

They all of a sudden hate Russia after almost

29:03

all of their officials went on vacations there back

29:05

in the day. I

29:07

mean, this was like, they all have townhouses there

29:09

still. And they all of a sudden, we're supposed

29:12

to believe they're anti Russia. Do you remember this

29:14

from Barack Obama? The 1980s are now calling

29:16

to ask for their foreign policy back because, you

29:19

know, the cold war has been over for

29:21

20 years. I mean, that was his attitude.

29:23

Yeah. In 2012, that was Barack Obama's attitude.

29:26

Russia's not a problem. No, they're a friend.

29:28

They're a friend. They're not something to be

29:30

afraid of at all. You should be afraid

29:32

of ISIS or whatever, but

29:34

not Russia. And it does sort of bother

29:36

me that we highlight that clip because it

29:38

is basically the best moment of Mitt Romney's

29:41

career. Yeah. And it's frustrating to highlight it,

29:43

but it is. He was right on that.

29:45

He was. We said he was right at

29:47

the time. Yes, we did. Russia is maybe

29:49

not number one, but the top three when

29:51

you're talking about major international threats. I would

29:53

say China is probably number one now. That's

29:55

where I would go as well. So you

29:58

look at this. this

30:00

platform and there's a lot of good stuff in there.

30:02

It's, I think a smart decision, I

30:05

think, to transform what

30:08

the old school process was, which was, you know,

30:10

you've got a 300 page platform that

30:13

no one ever reads and no one really pays attention

30:15

to and shrink it down to about 20 points that

30:19

everyone can kind of, you know, generally agree

30:21

on and that are

30:23

consistent with the Republican party ideal.

30:25

So I think that process is

30:27

fine. In the summary

30:29

of the 20 points, the word abortion doesn't

30:31

even exist. This has been a

30:34

central part of the Republican party's ideals

30:36

for a very long time. A

30:39

part of it, you know, the overturning

30:41

of Roe versus Wade was the beginning

30:44

of the end of abortion, if

30:47

you are of the optimistic

30:50

sort, but it was also part of a 50

30:53

year legal battle, a

30:57

50 year effort to

30:59

overturn one of these, one

31:02

of the worst legal rulings in history. So

31:08

the fact that it would just be abandoned and

31:10

there is some sort of boilerplate language

31:12

in the expanded document that kind of

31:15

indicates, Pat, well,

31:17

we're against late term abortion. That's

31:20

good, you should be. Yeah. That's

31:23

it? And that's it. It says

31:25

something about being generally pro-life, like it

31:27

doesn't really define that. I

31:30

just feel like, I have two minds of

31:32

this, Pat, tell me where you

31:34

would land and maybe we could get calls on this

31:36

888-727-BECK because

31:38

it does, it's a tough one

31:40

in some ways, if you think it out. Number

31:43

one, the platform, who

31:45

even reads it? I think you can make

31:48

the argument it doesn't mean really a thing. Number

31:50

two, Donald Trump has

31:53

a pretty good record on this topic, like

31:55

he appointed justices. Yeah, who overturned.

31:58

Overturn over suede. It's something

32:00

that both you and I together have said for

32:02

many years would never happen. And

32:04

then it happened. So how can you question

32:07

the guy? On

32:09

the other hand,

32:11

it seems very much like it's

32:13

politics here where the

32:16

calculation being made this time by Donald

32:19

Trump is what benefits him to be

32:21

elected is to be sort of soft

32:23

on this issue, to not scare suburban

32:25

women away. I understand that

32:27

as a political calculation. Maybe it's the right one. But

32:30

his calculation in 2016 was

32:33

we have weakness with evangelical

32:35

Christians and others

32:37

that are pro-life. We

32:39

should be strong on this issue. And

32:42

that's a different position than the one he has

32:44

today, seemingly. I get that, well, they made the

32:46

decision it's going back to the States, but

32:50

I don't know. How do you

32:52

work through this yourself? Well,

32:55

I'm having a hard time too. I'm struggling with it because

32:58

you do have to be elected. And

33:00

he said that at the debate. Otherwise,

33:04

you've got a Democrat in office again,

33:06

and especially this one who

33:09

is killing us. He's

33:11

just killing us. And so he's making a

33:13

political calculation. And a lot of people

33:16

think he should. On abortion, I

33:18

don't think you can make that calculation.

33:21

On abortion, it's too important. It's

33:24

too critical. Again,

33:27

you're either pro-life or you're not. I

33:30

think there's one exception, and that's the mother's

33:32

life in danger. But that almost never happens.

33:34

Yeah, I mean, it's pretty... Almost never happens.

33:37

It's incredibly rare. I mean, some

33:39

doctors say it never happens. And

33:42

it's, again, like... Because you could do a C-section,

33:44

right? I think that's the point

33:46

is that, well, you can deliver the baby still. You don't

33:48

have to afford it. You have to deliver the baby. Yes.

33:52

You have no choice. Eventually, you have to deliver it. It's just whether you're going

33:54

to try to deliver it alive or dead. Yeah. Again,

33:59

with that particular one... it

34:01

can get a little messy. So, but again,

34:04

it's still a difficult decision for anyone. You're

34:06

just choosing one life for another and like,

34:09

how do you deal with that? But this

34:11

is what it gets, winds up happening with

34:13

these debates. You get a sidetrack just the

34:15

0.0001% of possibilities. At

34:19

the end of the day, if we

34:21

just saw both Donald Trump and J.D.

34:23

Vance, who is one of the leaders for VP, go

34:27

on television and say they're pretty much okay with

34:29

Mipha Presto, which is like, we're

34:32

talking right now about 60 to 70% of abortions are

34:35

going with the abortion pill. Right. You

34:38

know, if these things that are

34:40

tossed out there like, oh, well, what about 15

34:42

week ban? Well, you're allowing

34:45

95% of abortions to occur with

34:47

a 15 week ban. These

34:49

are not pro-life positions. No. They're

34:52

more pro-life than AOC. You

34:55

know, if that's your standard, I guess you're hitting it.

34:58

But like a pro-life standard is trying

35:00

to stop abortions. Even a six week

35:02

ban allows 40% of abortions to occur.

35:07

Wow. I mean, is

35:10

that a pro-life position? It's

35:12

half pro-life. And

35:14

the abortion pill thing, I don't even understand how

35:16

you can be okay with that. How

35:20

can you, if you're pro-life, I mean, I understand

35:23

it if you're pro-abortion. I don't

35:25

understand it from the Republican party standpoint.

35:28

I don't get it. But again,

35:30

maybe we're too extreme on this. Yep. Very

35:32

possible. Do you care, first of all, that it's not

35:34

in the platform, number one? And number two, do you

35:37

understand the calculation here? 888-727-BECK, is it okay? Are

35:41

you okay with it? I mean, if

35:43

you're like AOC and you're like, I want to have 14 abortions

35:45

next week, that's not really the person I'm looking to

35:47

hear from. I want someone who's pro-life and it's like,

35:50

okay, look, I just, I think

35:52

it's totally fair to just say,

35:54

look, I just trust Trump on this. And

35:56

he has to be elected. He's got a good record and he's got

35:58

to be elected. Yeah. More coming up. In

36:18

an era of escalating social

36:20

unrest and rising crime rates,

36:22

safeguarding our families has never

36:24

been more critical. That is

36:27

why I'm endorsing the Berna

36:29

Less Lethal Pistol Launcher. It's

36:31

a non-lethal defense option developed by

36:34

common-sense gun owners who value the

36:36

power of choice. This

36:38

device enables you to de-escalate

36:40

dangerous situations effectively without the

36:43

finality of lethal force. The

36:46

Berna offers a safer, sensible

36:48

alternative that can save lives

36:50

on both ends, protecting the

36:53

user and delivering formidable stopping

36:55

power to deter aggressors. Legal

36:57

in all 50 states, no background checks or

37:00

permits required, and can be shipped directly to

37:02

your door. It's more than

37:04

just an option. It's an essential

37:07

tool for responsible, non-lethal protection. Visit

37:21

let's say you happen to be a

37:24

man who's just sold their home. Perhaps

37:28

your person who is

37:30

named Pat Gray. And there's going to

37:32

be some playing around with old

37:35

titles, new titles maybe coming into the picture

37:37

when it comes to your home.

37:39

These are risky times for

37:41

someone like Pat, because

37:43

your title is at, but

37:46

focus. I think you can turn that off actually on these. It's

37:50

one of those things that can be a real problem

37:52

for you, because if your title gets stolen,

37:54

like you could go, this is happening to people. They go to sell

37:56

their home. They think they're selling their home. And they're like, actually, you

37:58

sold your home six months ago. What are you talking

38:00

about? Actually, no, I didn't, but yeah. Yeah. That's

38:03

a nightmare. It's wild. It's called Home Title

38:05

Theft. It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America. And it's also

38:07

one of the least known crimes. You

38:09

don't want it happening to you and your family, which

38:12

is why you need home title protection. If

38:14

no one is watching out for your title, then it's

38:16

really just a matter of time until one of these

38:18

thieves targets you. This is happening to people. It is

38:20

real and there is at least something you can do

38:23

about it. Don't fall prey

38:25

to these thieves. Go to hometidaloc.com. Protect

38:27

38:58

and Stu for Glenn this week. Triple

39:01

eight seven two seven BECK. Are

39:05

you okay with the compromise the Republican Party

39:07

is making in their platform on

39:10

abortion? Actually, the abortion issue doesn't

39:12

really figure into

39:14

the platform much at all, does

39:17

it? You said they just kind of in

39:19

passing mentioned that they're generally pro-life.

39:21

The main summary that they released does not

39:23

mention the word abortion at all. And there's

39:25

nothing about it at all. In the expanded

39:27

16 page version, it

39:29

does in passing mention it and only

39:32

says they're against late term abortion. It

39:35

just shows how frightened off

39:37

they've been by the

39:39

outcry of the Democrats. It's

39:42

worked really well for Democrats. It

39:44

has and it worked really well. I

39:47

still don't necessarily believe you're winning or losing

39:49

this election based on that law. But

39:52

you've said before, even if you do lose it

39:55

though, is this an issue worth losing

39:57

an election over? It's

39:59

a tough one. It is a tough one. Yeah,

40:01

it really is. Let's go to Liz in

40:03

New York. Hey, Liz, you're on the Glenn Beck program, Pat and

40:05

Stu. Hi, thank you for taking

40:07

my call. Um, so I,

40:11

I called in because I was raised

40:13

by a single mother, very liberal Democrat,

40:15

um, who is an atheist, but

40:18

yet also told me abortion was my

40:20

God given right as a woman. It

40:22

somehow made what I now

40:25

term sexual immorality, you know, made me equal to a

40:27

man. I could walk away from a pregnancy just as

40:29

easily as a man could. Um, I

40:31

ended up getting, well, I've got married. I had

40:33

my first kid. With our second

40:35

child though, there was a problem with

40:38

the pregnancy. And I remember when you were

40:40

in the car, both of us

40:42

debating in our own head, we were both, you

40:44

know, pro choice at the time. And I wanted

40:46

this baby. I wanted this baby. I'm going to

40:49

get emotional. I wanted this baby. And then,

40:52

um, one of us said,

40:54

I think we should have him. And the other one

40:57

went, we should have tears and everything. So we have

40:59

this wonderful, he's now 15 years old. He has special

41:01

needs. And I wouldn't change a damn thing.

41:03

I, I, we, she makes my

41:05

life perfect along with my older

41:07

child of course. But I also started

41:09

at that time listening cause how do you, when you're

41:11

pro choice and then you make this decision to have

41:13

this baby and you know, this is the life we

41:16

live. I started really listening to some of the pro

41:18

life arguments and some of them, I just didn't have

41:20

a good answer to. And as

41:22

a pro choice person, that's what started to

41:24

change my mind. I now consider myself pro

41:26

life. And while I

41:29

am not, I'm not comfortable with,

41:31

with the Republicans saying, well, we're

41:33

okay with it. You know, at this point or that

41:36

point, you're right. I agree with you guys that you're

41:38

either okay with killing a baby or you're not. But

41:41

if we, if we don't allow,

41:44

we wait and I feel like this is a long

41:46

process. It's going to be a long process of the

41:49

pro life movement, really working with people and

41:51

doing things like those sonograms and

41:54

showing others there are. It's

41:56

really important and we think we're out of time, but thank you for your

41:59

call. We're gonna have more on this. here in a second. The

42:01

Glenn Beck Program. Welcome

42:42

to

42:46

the

42:49

fusion

42:54

of entertainment and

42:56

enlightenment. This

42:59

is the Glenn Beck

43:01

Program. Quick,

43:05

Pat and Stu. We've been

43:07

talking about the Republican platform and

43:09

how they've just adopted Trump's position on everything.

43:12

And is that, when it

43:14

comes to abortion, is that okay with you? I

43:17

think Stu and I admittedly are maybe a little

43:19

more extreme on this than many people pro-life

43:22

wise. But what do you

43:24

think? Yes.

43:26

Companies have to get elected. And

43:30

this is a tough one. Do

43:33

you think you compromise on

43:35

being pro-life? Triple

43:37

eight, seven two seven BECK. We'll get into that

43:39

in your calls in one minute. It's

43:44

hard to keep a good company down, especially one

43:46

that puts out the best products consistently. And that

43:49

is what Mike Pillow has been doing for a

43:51

long time. We've been singing their praises for years

43:53

on the show because Glenn actually uses their products

43:56

43:58

stand for something good. in the American

44:00

market. MyPillow has seen amazing success despite

44:03

everyone trying to blow up their company

44:06

and they don't have support of the big box

44:08

stores anymore, they don't have the shopping channels anymore,

44:10

but they just have you. They just have the

44:12

American people who really like their stuff. That's what

44:14

they have. And with this huge

44:16

change in retailers, they want to pass

44:18

savings directly onto you to say thank

44:20

you and show you how much they

44:22

should appreciate your support. To get you

45:04

long. It's MyPillow. All

45:10

right, triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K with

45:12

your thoughts. You know,

45:15

just how, how important is being

45:17

pro-life to you? To me,

45:19

it's pretty important. I mean, it's, is

45:22

there a more important issue than this? Than

45:25

life? I

45:27

don't think so. I mean, we have, we do

45:29

have a situation where tens of millions of people

45:31

should be alive that aren't. Yeah. Well, that's a

45:33

big one. Yeah. It's hard to, and

45:35

that's just in the US. It's 64 million here. It

45:40

is over a billion worldwide. That's

45:43

staggering. Now on the left, they're

45:46

fine with that because we're overpopulated

45:48

to begin with according to many

45:50

of them. But I mean,

45:54

every person on this earth could fit on

45:56

the Island of Maui. Every

45:58

person on earth. I mean, you'd be

46:00

a little bit crowded. Yeah. It'd be like

46:02

a concert. If all the rebellion of us got there, but yeah. Yeah.

46:05

You can do it. I mean, be shoulder to shoulder.

46:07

Can you imagine if you just stretched that out

46:09

to Texas, we'd all have some room. Mm-hmm. Let

46:12

alone spreading us out over the entire face of

46:14

the planet. I mean, I don't know how many

46:16

people you can fit on this earth and

46:18

how many we can feed, but it's a lot.

46:21

It's more than we have now. I mean, if

46:23

you're a person of faith,

46:26

I tend to come to the conclusion that it's unlimited.

46:29

Just keep them coming. And you know what? I'd like to

46:31

have more. Yeah. I think having people on the earth is

46:33

a good thing. When you've lost over

46:36

a billion people worldwide, you just wonder,

46:38

gosh, would one of them have cured

46:40

cancer? And it's possible, right?

46:43

I mean, well, we know one of them is Joe

46:45

Biden promised he was gonna do it. So that's gonna

46:47

happen any day now. You can check if it's done

46:49

right now, by the way. It has joe biden cured

46:51

cancer dot com. Oh, okay. Has joe biden cured cancer

46:53

dot com? I don't know. I'm not there right now.

46:55

Let me go do that. Let me go. Has joe

46:57

biden cured cancer dot com. Because he did promise. Now,

46:59

one of the first things you'll see on the video

47:02

is the video of Joe Biden during the campaign promising

47:04

that he would cure cancer if elected. So this is

47:06

not just us saying, wow, this is a crazy campaign

47:08

promise. I've heard no one ask

47:11

him about this campaign promise. No

47:13

one. But the question, has

47:15

joe biden cured cancer dot com? The

47:18

answer now is no. Oh

47:20

wow. Cancer still exists as of Wednesday,

47:22

July 10th. Dang it. Darn

47:24

it. We were so close. So close. Yet,

47:28

so seemingly far away. Let's

47:30

go to Patty in Connecticut. Hey Patty, you're

47:32

on the Glenn Beck program with Patten Stu.

47:34

Thank you for taking my call and covering

47:37

this very important subject. I actually am pro-life.

47:39

I'm a former critical care nurse, registered nurse,

47:41

and I worked for about five, six years

47:43

in an OBGYN office. And it actually enlightened

47:45

me to where they're coming from and what

47:47

people are thinking. I think

47:50

people are in an impossible situation sometimes

47:52

and they anguish over it. They don't

47:54

want to, but their situations are so

47:56

constrictive that they are not able to

47:58

afford a child. and don't have any

48:00

support systems in place, I

48:03

would think we would benefit a lot

48:05

from looking for solutions. Having Women's Center,

48:07

with counseling, with options,

48:10

with people who sit down and just

48:12

trying to steer people for abortions, talk

48:14

to people and see what we can

48:17

do for them to actually facilitate them

48:19

being able to have the life. And

48:21

people are tormented later in

48:23

their life over decisions when they have

48:26

had abortions. So it stays with people.

48:28

So many of that, and if they

48:31

had free ultrasounds, offer them

48:34

Women's Centers with healthcare,

48:36

with counseling, with options,

48:39

and the ultrasound, the sonogram is so very

48:41

important and it connects them with their child

48:43

in life. And it will

48:45

actually, I think, actually remedy a lot

48:47

of it. We have to realize that

48:49

we have been indoctrinating people for decades

48:51

now, and we have conditioned them to

48:53

accept this. They know inside their heart

48:55

they don't want to, but they've made

48:57

it okay, because they've actually had family

48:59

members and others who've been forced in

49:02

the same positions, and this is what

49:04

they chose to do. They do

49:06

carry the burden, and they carry the

49:08

loss. So we need to actually

49:10

help them, and help them make

49:12

decisions that will best benefit their life, the

49:14

future of this country, and the life of

49:16

that child, and put them on better notes,

49:19

offer support, instead of just ending the life

49:21

of a child. Patty, thank you very much. Could

49:23

have been a pre-born commercial. I was gonna say

49:25

that exactly. It sounds like a pre-born commercial. By

49:27

the way, pre-born, this is not a paid commercial,

49:29

but that is exactly what they do, and

49:31

they're doing it all over the country. That's

49:33

one of the reasons we've partnered with them.

49:36

They're a fantastic organization. Phenomenal. That is

49:38

doing almost all of that. And they really care. Yes. And

49:41

they don't just talk the women into

49:43

having, carrying the baby full term. They

49:45

also help afterwards. Up to two years

49:47

after. So the question,

49:50

kind of a difference slightly of what pre-born's doing

49:52

and what Patty's suggesting is she wants the government

49:54

to be a little bit involved, or maybe the

49:56

Republican Party. To be fair,

49:58

to the Republican platform. That is... is

50:00

sort of indicating, indicated

50:03

in the platform. They have language in there that

50:05

says basically to try to come up with some

50:07

way of supporting mothers who are

50:10

in these tough times that have to make

50:12

these tough decisions so that they don't make

50:14

the wrong one. They do sort of refer

50:16

to that in the expanded document a little

50:18

bit. They basically say, no, late

50:20

term abortion and we should support moms after

50:22

birth. Or some, you know, there's some sort

50:24

of language like that. I think

50:26

that's a good idea. I don't know necessarily,

50:29

you know, of course, as a person who likes small government,

50:31

I don't necessarily love all this stuff. I like what Preborn's

50:33

doing better. But that's a

50:35

rational thing. You have to give, do

50:38

everything you can to make these decisions more

50:40

easy for moms. Show them

50:42

the alternatives, like adoption,

50:44

for instance. Yeah, yeah. All

50:48

right, Chris in Indiana. Hi,

50:50

go ahead. Hi, hi, we've been wanting to

50:52

overturn Roe for once, just a few years

50:54

now. Now that it's done

50:57

and the states can make their own laws,

50:59

here comes the pro-life movement wanting to get

51:01

the federal government involved again. I

51:05

think that's a bad strategy. I think that

51:07

provokes the exact opposite of what we want.

51:09

I think it's much more likely to have

51:11

a pro-choice nine

51:14

month bill passing through Congress and

51:16

signed by some president than it is for

51:18

a pro-life bill. And I just

51:20

think it's a bad strategy. I'm

51:23

pro-life, I can't think of anything more sinful or

51:25

ugly than abortion or

51:27

selfish for that matter. But I just think it's

51:29

a bad strategy. Thank you very much. Thank you,

51:32

appreciate that. And I think- Although I'm not

51:34

saying that it shouldn't go to the

51:36

states. It should, I'm just

51:38

saying the Republican platform is

51:41

a statement of beliefs

51:44

and principles, right? Foundational

51:46

beliefs. And it also

51:49

can have policy. I mean, to me,

51:51

the way to get rid of

51:53

abortion in the country legally is

51:55

actually not a national abortion ban.

51:57

It is a constitutional amendment barring.

52:00

the practice. That used to be, by the

52:02

way, put up by

52:04

Republicans all the time. And yes, it would

52:06

fail. But so, keep putting it

52:08

up there until it succeeds. We

52:11

especially us thought Roe v. Wade

52:13

would always be intact, right? We

52:15

never thought the Supreme Court would

52:18

overturn Roe v. Wade, and that

52:20

happened. So maybe one

52:22

day the constitutional amendment could happen. Go

52:24

back to the days where you'd look

52:27

at polling on gay marriage, and

52:29

the left would be like, all right, we want gay marriage.

52:31

And everyone would be like, huh? Gay

52:34

marriage? It's got like 12% support.

52:36

Good luck with that, buddy. Legalizing

52:39

marijuana is another one like that. In

52:42

fact, go back long enough and you'll

52:44

find interracial marriage with 4% support in

52:46

this country, right?

52:49

And obviously, you'd be starting at a much higher

52:52

level for a constitutional

52:54

amendment for abortion. It would be

52:57

really hard. It's supposed to be really hard

52:59

to amend the Constitution, but worthwhile endeavor.

53:02

Endeavor, I think. Absolutely. Kevin,

53:05

in North Carolina. Hi. Yes.

53:09

So where has compromise actually gotten

53:11

the Republicans or the conservatives as

53:13

a movement, being one

53:15

of them? I would

53:17

have thought that we would learn by now that

53:20

they keep moving the marker. The other side keeps

53:22

moving it little by little by little. And

53:25

if you look at the abortion issue

53:27

to begin with, we keep hearing about

53:29

raping incest, raping incest. Well, what percentage

53:31

of abortions are actually related to raping

53:33

incest? It's almost not. It's almost it

53:35

is. Yeah, it's very tiny. Okay. It's

53:37

more about making money. This is a

53:39

business. There's a lot of people that

53:42

make a lot of money off

53:44

baby killing. And I

53:46

just think that it's solid. We shouldn't move on.

53:48

Some people may differ with that. But

53:51

being a father of three young children, my older

53:53

is the oldest to six. To

53:55

me, I don't see any movement on this

53:57

because if you move on this, then you're going to

53:59

move on. on everything else. You're going to move on

54:01

gun rights. You're going to move on all these different

54:03

topics. And that's just how

54:06

I feel about it. I mean, I'm sure you could get 50 different

54:09

opinions, but for me, I think our

54:11

Republicans as a whole, we're weak. And

54:14

it's because we keep bowing

54:16

to this sort of stuff. Like, okay, yeah, we

54:18

won't do that. Oh, you're right. We need

54:20

to back off. Why? Yeah.

54:23

And it's interesting because I think you

54:25

see the leftist

54:27

activists don't bend on this stuff, right? Never.

54:29

They say what they want. Never. They keep

54:32

going for it until they get it and

54:34

they keep going and going and going. That

54:36

being said, Barack Obama ran for president saying

54:39

he was against gay marriage when obviously he

54:41

wasn't. Right? Yeah. So the

54:43

second time he wound up changing that, but in 2008,

54:46

he ran for president and made a

54:48

pragmatic decision, I guess. I mean, I'm trying

54:50

to argue the other side here a little bit, but like,

54:53

you know, if you're thinking about politics, maybe that was

54:55

the right decision. You wind up getting it done. You

54:59

know, so I think you can argue that. To

55:01

me, I would just have liked, I don't

55:03

necessarily think you need to dive into every

55:05

policy that's going to, how you're going to

55:07

do this, you know, what you're going to

55:09

do in each state. What

55:11

I think would have been nice is a

55:13

message of moral clarity, that

55:16

every life deserves a

55:19

chance at living. You know, that is, you

55:21

don't necessarily need to dive into every little

55:23

bit of policy, but it is disconcerting

55:25

that, you know, they're really clear

55:27

about men being in women's sports,

55:29

which look, I'm passionate about. That

55:32

shouldn't happen. Me too. But it's way

55:34

less important than abortion. It's

55:37

not even close. Look, let's be

55:40

honest about it. I didn't care at all about

55:42

women's sports before Caitlin Clark anyway. If

55:44

men dominated all of women's sports, eh, I'd

55:46

probably shrug my shoulders a little bit. The

55:49

only exception if I have a daughter. So

55:51

now I kind of care if this happens

55:53

to her, but women's sports to me, not

55:56

foundational American stuff. And

55:58

I love all I, I. You know again,

56:01

I do actually care about that issue. I

56:03

don't want to blow it off But compare

56:05

it comparing it to a life not being

56:07

able to live Yeah It's

56:09

just not close and that's in the

56:11

platform that we're really morally clear about

56:13

when not being in women's sports That's

56:15

in the platform. We can't be clear

56:18

about abortion. It's amazing. It's

56:20

despicable really it really is because

56:23

you know Yeah,

56:25

there's a big difference there a big

56:27

big difference All right, you got a trophy

56:30

A man got a trophy in a woman's sport. It's

56:33

bad or yeah, it's bad bad It's irritating

56:35

it is but it's not the death of

56:37

a baby It

56:39

is not no triple-8 727

56:42

BECK more coming up in one minute All

56:46

right since the start of the swords of iron war

56:49

in Israel on October 7th We have

56:51

seen death and destruction in the Holy Land for more

56:53

than 40 years International fellowship of Christians

56:55

and Jews has been on the ground in Israel

56:58

and within hours of the war starting and

57:00

every day since they've been feeding the hungry

57:02

and protecting the vulnerable The

57:04

attacks continue in the north and the

57:07

south and Israel But there are resilient

57:09

survivors who bravely share their stories in

57:11

a series the fellowship calls faces of

57:13

iron Survivors like

57:15

Danny whose beloved daughter and her

57:17

husband were burned alive on

57:19

October 7th by Hamas terrorist Danny's

57:22

a commander of the volunteer fire and rescue

57:24

in his community Despite the fact

57:26

that there was fire equipment nearby Danny could do

57:28

nothing as his daughter's house burned to the ground

57:30

Good God These are the

57:32

types of people that IFC J is

57:34

helping Christians like you support Israel through

57:37

the international fellowship of Christians and Jews

57:40

Is that support that helps these survivors remain

57:42

steadfast and strong to hear more stories like

57:44

this one and to show your support? visit

57:47

visit I have Excuse

57:49

me visit support IFC J org. It's

57:51

not like Biden there support IFC J

57:54

org It's an important one.

57:56

Please stand up for Israel support

57:58

IFC J 10

58:01

seconds, Station ID. It's

58:13

Pat and Stu for Glenn this week. I think part of

58:15

the problem is that for

58:18

years we were told, hey,

58:21

don't even talk about abortion. Okay?

58:24

This is too controversial. It's too divisive.

58:28

And you're not going to get anywhere with

58:30

anybody anyway. You're not going to convince anybody

58:32

to be pro-life who's not, and you're not

58:34

going to convince anybody to be pro-choice who's

58:36

pro-life. So just don't talk about it. We

58:39

went along with that. And we believed it.

58:41

We were like, yeah, okay. All right. You're

58:43

right. That's probably too divisive. And so

58:46

year after year after year, it got

58:48

worse and worse and

58:51

worse because the left completely

58:53

controlled the discussion. And

58:56

then finally when we jumped in

58:58

and we got a president who

59:02

believed in the cause, at

59:04

least to a certain extent, and

59:07

put in three Supreme Court

59:10

justices who were absolutely pro-life, and he

59:12

kind of was okay with the litmus

59:14

test on that too. The left has

59:16

always been okay with, well, are you

59:18

pro-choice? And for the

59:20

left, if you weren't pro-choice, you couldn't be

59:22

a Supreme Court justice. So

59:24

I think Trump kind of went along with that

59:27

theory just the opposite. And you

59:29

had to have a litmus test that you were pro-life. And

59:32

he did. And it got

59:34

Roe v. Wade overturned. Incredible.

59:36

Incredible success. Something we thought could never happen. And

59:39

it's probably defensible to just say, look, the

59:41

platform doesn't mean that much, and

59:44

Donald Trump has a good record on this topic. Just

59:46

trust him once he gets in office, he'll be

59:48

the same guy. And that's probably true. Right? Like

59:51

he'll probably be pro-life. I

59:53

am concerned that he just seems very nervous about it.

59:56

Yeah. He doesn't seem as strong

59:58

as he does. was when

1:00:00

he ran the first time. Look,

1:00:03

it's risky. I've talked

1:00:05

to a lot of real conservatives who actually

1:00:08

are pro-life people who really care and just

1:00:10

say, look, this is toxic right now politically.

1:00:12

It's a problem. People are losing elections.

1:00:14

Good people who actually are pro-life are losing

1:00:16

elections over this and we just can't make

1:00:18

it the focus this time. Where's our friend

1:00:20

Dan on this? Dan Andros, who is one

1:00:22

of the most pro-life people I know. I

1:00:25

mean, he's definitely on our side. He's the

1:00:27

same. Yeah, he's not saying, yeah, you need

1:00:29

to moderate your position on this. No,

1:00:33

it's just tough to moderate when you're

1:00:35

talking about children's lives. I don't know.

1:00:39

I can understand political calculation and I

1:00:41

think the correct position for a politician

1:00:43

is probably, look, we want

1:00:46

there to be no ... We're pro-life.

1:00:49

We will take each step that we can

1:00:51

take so that fewer children have

1:00:55

their lives expired in this way. Right?

1:00:58

That doesn't mean we're going to get everything right now.

1:01:00

We're not going to get the constitutional amendment that Stu

1:01:02

wants. It's not going to happen. At some point

1:01:04

it might and we should take every bit of ground

1:01:06

we can get as it goes towards that direction. But

1:01:08

right now, what we can probably get is the states

1:01:10

and improve the state laws. That's probably what we can

1:01:12

get right now. It's a rational position. Yeah. Let's

1:01:15

go to Gary in North Carolina. Hey,

1:01:17

Gary, welcome. Hey, just

1:01:20

really quickly, if they pass this and they put that

1:01:22

in there, then the answer is no. It's

1:01:24

a line. I'm not going to call, so I'm not going to vote

1:01:26

for Trump. We'll not vote

1:01:28

for an RNC candidate that supports

1:01:30

that. I just won't.

1:01:32

We keep yielding ground. North

1:01:35

Carolina, both our senators in 2022

1:01:37

voted for the Save the

1:01:39

Marriage Act. And so, my senators

1:01:42

are getting progressively more left

1:01:44

than conservatives. And I'm just, I'm

1:01:47

tired of the, yeah, we'll put you in,

1:01:49

you'll change. And then you just drift to

1:01:51

the left instead of stand firm on issues

1:01:53

that are very clear. And so, if they

1:01:55

cross this line on abortion, then

1:01:58

no, I won't vote for them. It's

1:02:00

interesting. Thank you to Gary for the call. Even if you listen

1:02:02

to Gary and you say, gosh, you can't, we're not going to

1:02:04

vote for Donald Trump. Like this is going to be terrible. Like

1:02:08

the party needs to hear those voices. Those

1:02:10

people do exist. And, you know,

1:02:12

people who are super passionate about this

1:02:14

topic and will not bend on it

1:02:17

in a close election, they really matter. And

1:02:21

so I think there is a way- And in

1:02:23

a state like North Carolina. Yeah. Which is a

1:02:25

swing state. There is a way

1:02:27

I think to make those people feel comfortable

1:02:29

without blowing up, you know, every

1:02:32

suburban, you know, mom from

1:02:34

the Donald Trump campaign. Like

1:02:36

I understand, you know, I

1:02:39

know I'm not going to get everything I want on this. I

1:02:41

get it. I get it. I know I'm not going to be

1:02:43

pleased. I got it. But I

1:02:45

think you can do something for these people who,

1:02:47

by the way, have been the

1:02:49

foundation of the party for the

1:02:52

past 50 years. You

1:02:54

can't just blow them off

1:02:56

completely. It's a very risky strategy

1:02:59

if you do that. Yeah.

1:03:01

I mean, the RU-486 thing,

1:03:05

maybe that's the biggest issue for me because

1:03:09

that's where most abortions come from

1:03:11

now. Especially now. You

1:03:14

know, first, I mean, especially when

1:03:16

you have access in these areas, you know,

1:03:18

being cut off by good sensible laws, they

1:03:22

are now just shipping these things in from

1:03:24

India. They're just getting the pills shipped in

1:03:26

from India. And I'm like, well, okay, that

1:03:28

doesn't necessarily. All that long ago where RU-486

1:03:30

wasn't even legal in America. I don't

1:03:33

know, 15 years, 20 at

1:03:35

the most. Glenn

1:06:40

of great stuff on the network. It's been growing so

1:06:42

fast. By the way, new documentaries coming out. I've got

1:06:44

a new one coming out later this month, maybe or

1:06:46

next month, I don't know, it was the next few

1:06:48

weeks on sort of

1:06:51

the controversies with DEI, as DEI

1:06:53

in the sky. You

1:06:58

know the fact that like, hey, are we hiring

1:07:00

air traffic controllers based on the color of their

1:07:02

skin? That seems like a bad idea. Wow.

1:07:05

We go through that. I talked to a guy

1:07:09

who got a perfect score

1:07:12

on the air traffic control test and

1:07:15

did not get a job because his racial

1:07:17

answers did not line up to what, I

1:07:19

mean, his skin was the wrong tone, basically.

1:07:22

We go through the whole thing with him.

1:07:24

Wow. And I talked to him. Wow. He's

1:07:26

suing the government over this. And

1:07:28

it's incredible. Like not

1:07:31

to mention how broken down the

1:07:34

infrastructure is when it comes to air traffic control

1:07:36

to the extent that they are literally to

1:07:38

this day, it is what year 2024? They

1:07:42

are still using floppy

1:07:45

disks. What?

1:07:48

In 2024, a lot of the stuff. I

1:07:52

barely even remember what a floppy disk

1:07:54

is. Right. I

1:07:57

couldn't believe it. I was talking to this

1:07:59

guy, an expert in this. He's like, yes,

1:08:01

here it is. He shows me the documents.

1:08:03

They still do handwritten logs

1:08:05

of flights entering

1:08:07

the handwritten. Incredible.

1:08:10

It is absolutely insane. And so that's

1:08:12

coming up. And these have been

1:08:15

released basically every month, a new documentary on

1:08:17

a new topic from a different

1:08:19

host of Blaze TV. Really good series called Blaze

1:08:21

Originals. Can I tell you how much great

1:08:23

stuff there is on Blaze TV right now? And last

1:08:26

pitch for this, if you are going

1:08:29

into this election cycle and you

1:08:31

are looking at the way the media is covering

1:08:33

it and you think to yourself,

1:08:36

holy crap, we are

1:08:38

in serious trouble. We need to have

1:08:41

some actual news coverage about

1:09:09

we've been talking about the Republican

1:09:11

platform and how it

1:09:13

barely mentions anything

1:09:16

about abortion. So a

1:09:19

little strange. And

1:09:21

are you okay with it? Are you

1:09:23

okay with compromise on this particular issue? Let's go

1:09:25

to William in Kentucky. Hey, William. Hey,

1:09:29

how are you guys today? Good. First

1:09:32

time caller. Thanks for doing it. We appreciate

1:09:34

it. But I am

1:09:36

perfectly okay with the new platform.

1:09:39

Okay. I am, just

1:09:42

to let you know, I'm agnostic. So

1:09:45

I'm kind of a struggle of fence

1:09:47

on where life begins.

1:09:49

I know you guys believe,

1:09:52

I'm assuming you believe life begins

1:09:55

at a conception. And

1:09:58

I'm not there. Yeah. I

1:10:00

have no idea when life begins and

1:10:04

I am perfectly okay with compromising

1:10:07

to an extent. Late-term abortion,

1:10:09

I absolutely oppose, but

1:10:13

I think first trimester abortion is perfectly

1:10:17

reasonable. Not

1:10:20

me personally, I am pro-life. I would

1:10:23

never want any of my children to

1:10:25

have an abortion. I

1:10:27

would not do it. If anyone came to

1:10:29

me and asked me about it, I would give

1:10:31

them the pro-life spiel.

1:10:35

But I don't... Yeah,

1:10:37

I can tell you feel strongly about it. The

1:10:39

spiel. When you go into the spiel

1:10:41

of pro-life spiel. Okay,

1:10:45

so you wouldn't err on the side of

1:10:48

caution then necessarily, William?

1:10:51

I lean more towards the woman's right

1:10:53

to choose. Because I believe if there

1:10:56

is a God, if there

1:10:58

is a God and life begins that

1:11:00

conception and hits a sin against God,

1:11:03

I feel God will sort it out at

1:11:05

the end. Well, God can sort out late-term

1:11:07

abortions too and also murders when you're 45

1:11:09

years old, right? I mean, God's going to

1:11:11

sort all that out. You don't really have a choice on that stuff. No,

1:11:15

it's interesting because I think it's... To

1:11:19

me, it's pretty clear, but a

1:11:21

lot of people have these issues of figuring these lines

1:11:23

out. Just appeal to your sense

1:11:25

of, there's a lot of things I don't know, a

1:11:27

lot of things that I'm not an expert

1:11:29

in. And

1:11:31

when I have the opportunity to err on

1:11:33

the side of life, if I'm

1:11:36

admitting I'm not sure, like if

1:11:38

I don't know where that line is, why would

1:11:40

I make the line later? I

1:11:42

would think you'd want to protect life.

1:11:44

And I think if we think about this in a

1:11:46

way of just doing

1:11:49

what we can to consider the

1:11:51

person who we all know will

1:11:53

be a person, right? This is not like it's not like

1:11:55

it's not going to be a fern. This

1:11:58

is eventually going to be a human being. If we can

1:12:00

kind of think about what this is, because

1:12:02

I don't, I will say,

1:12:04

William, and I really seriously, legitimately appreciate

1:12:06

your call in explaining this, because you

1:12:09

are probably the majority. I think the majority

1:12:11

does support first term abortion. Second and third

1:12:13

term, it's not even close. Overwhelmingly

1:12:15

Americans oppose it. First term is

1:12:17

not that way. And I think it's

1:12:19

because, yeah, I don't know, you don't see the picture really on

1:12:22

the ultrasound. It doesn't really

1:12:24

look like a baby yet and all that, but

1:12:27

you do know- And the woman's right to

1:12:29

choose thing has been really compelling to people.

1:12:32

Well, okay, yeah. And I

1:12:34

agree, you should choose on your own body. But

1:12:36

there's another body at stake here. And

1:12:39

that's the one inside of you that's a

1:12:41

separate body with separate DNA and separate

1:12:44

limbs and eyes and ears and a

1:12:46

brain and a heart and

1:12:48

all these things that matter. If

1:12:51

you're saying only the woman can

1:12:54

choose and it's between her and her

1:12:56

doctor, well, you're

1:12:59

just completely discounting the other body

1:13:01

inside, right? And to

1:13:03

me, that is so wrong.

1:13:06

We lost William there, but I think it

1:13:08

comes down to if you're going to

1:13:11

have a middling position on this, right? You

1:13:13

have to pick a day. You have

1:13:16

to pick a moment. You have to pick a second where

1:13:19

this turns from something that's totally

1:13:21

fine into a crime, right? It

1:13:23

turns from something that

1:13:25

is just a

1:13:27

clump of cells into

1:13:30

a human body that the life is ending.

1:13:33

If you're like a person that says, okay,

1:13:35

that's seven months, whatever it is, well, why

1:13:37

isn't it six months and 30 days? Why

1:13:40

isn't it, you're going to

1:13:43

have to give me, you're going to

1:13:45

have to draw a second where that

1:13:47

clock ticks and that turns from nothing

1:13:50

into a life. That decision's

1:13:52

really easy when you make it at conception. It's

1:13:55

not easy and to be

1:13:58

frank, doesn't make any sense. to put

1:14:00

that at three months or

1:14:02

four months or 15 weeks or

1:14:05

six weeks. Like- A

1:14:07

lot of people now put it at 21 weeks because

1:14:09

that seems to be when the fetus

1:14:11

is viable. That's that was- When the baby can survive

1:14:14

outside the womb. Today it is, right? It was 24,

1:14:16

25, 26 weeks when they did reverse this way. Right,

1:14:19

it could be 15 each next year. Exactly.

1:14:22

We don't know. And at the end of

1:14:24

the day, it doesn't make any sense to

1:14:26

make that determination because

1:14:29

what you're doing is, I mean, I thought

1:14:31

about this with, what was the guy in

1:14:33

Philly? The guy who went to prison, abortionist.

1:14:36

Yeah, Grover. Wasn't

1:14:39

it? Yeah. What was his name? I look

1:14:41

that up, I'm all figured out. I can't remember his name off the top of

1:14:43

my head. It should be one that's in the, and I

1:14:46

could feel Abby Johnson, who's incredible on the

1:14:48

life issue, yelling the name at the radio

1:14:50

right now. So I apologize for not remembering

1:14:53

this monster's name. Luckily, he's no longer in

1:14:55

our lives. He's been put away for a

1:14:57

very long time. But

1:15:01

what's fascinating about his story

1:15:04

was many of the abortions he- Kermit Gosnell.

1:15:06

Kermit, I knew it was a weird name.

1:15:08

Kermit Gosnell. I had the

1:15:10

wrong Sesame Street character. I went Grover.

1:15:13

I took her over. I took her

1:15:15

over. No, it was Kermit. And I

1:15:17

almost blamed Grover Norquist for this. He

1:15:19

is not guilty of these crimes. It

1:15:23

is Kermit Gosnell. And what's

1:15:25

fascinating about that, a lot of people are like, gosh, that

1:15:27

was the worst thing I've ever seen. This

1:15:30

man was taking babies and killing

1:15:32

them late-term, ripping them out and

1:15:34

ending their lives. Many

1:15:37

of the abortions that

1:15:39

he committed, the murders he committed, happened

1:15:41

a week after the deadline.

1:15:45

Meaning if he had done this stuff a week

1:15:47

earlier, he's not in prison. Just perfectly fine. He's

1:15:49

at a country club with a Porsche. Yeah. Right?

1:15:53

What kind, what sane

1:15:56

society would do this?

1:15:59

Throw a guy in jail. jail for 50 years

1:16:01

for a two or three day time

1:16:03

period where he does the exact same

1:16:05

thing, that makes no

1:16:07

sense at all. And

1:16:09

I think the problem here when

1:16:11

you're talking about this, at

1:16:13

some level government has to make these sort of indiscriminate

1:16:16

lines, but morally we

1:16:18

certainly don't have to make them. And

1:16:21

look, it's just not about choice. To

1:16:24

put this last, and we have a million

1:16:27

calls on this, we'll get to them here in a second. It's

1:16:29

not about women's choice. This is not a women's choice

1:16:31

issue in any way. Because frankly,

1:16:33

if you talk to any, if God came

1:16:35

down today and came on the air and

1:16:37

just came into this third chair we have

1:16:39

here, was like, hello, parents too. And

1:16:42

said, by the way, I really appreciate all the

1:16:44

stuff you say about abortion, but actually I don't

1:16:46

care. It's not a big deal to me. If

1:16:49

until they come out of that birth canal, basically

1:16:51

it means nothing to me. So

1:16:53

I appreciate where you guys have been, but honestly, you

1:16:56

don't have to care about that other life anymore because

1:16:58

it's not life. Let's just say it happened. It's not

1:17:00

going to happen. Let's just say it happened. If it

1:17:02

happened, none of us would care.

1:17:05

You could go ahead, abort, abort, abort,

1:17:07

abort, abort. If it's not life, I

1:17:10

don't care if you abort it. Secondarily,

1:17:12

if it is life, if God came down to

1:17:14

liberals and said this, whatever their God is, came

1:17:16

down to liberals and said, hey. Well,

1:17:18

it'd be Gaia. It is. Gaia would come

1:17:21

down. Gaia comes down and says, hey liberals.

1:17:25

I know what you've been saying about the whole,

1:17:27

hey, you can kill children in the womb thing,

1:17:29

but wow, that really matters to me. You can't.

1:17:31

That's real life in there. In theory,

1:17:33

you would assume every liberal would say, holy crap,

1:17:36

it is murder. Well,

1:17:38

then of course we don't want it to happen. The

1:17:40

point is only about the life

1:17:43

in the womb. It is not

1:17:45

about women's choice at all. The

1:17:48

woman going through this is incredibly

1:17:50

important and it's why you have ...

1:17:52

We talk about supporting them after the birth. We

1:17:54

talk about helping them through these

1:17:56

decisions. It is incredibly important and

1:17:58

not easy. You know, God forbid you go

1:18:00

through one of these terrible scenarios that ends in a pregnancy, not

1:18:03

easy at all. At the end of

1:18:05

the day, it's about the decision is made

1:18:07

about the life. Conservatives,

1:18:10

if it was just removing a few cells, a clump of

1:18:12

cells that we did not think was life, we

1:18:14

wouldn't care. No conservatives like, I

1:18:17

oppose women's rights to remove tumors. Like

1:18:20

there's no conservative with that position because

1:18:22

it's not about women's choice, it's about

1:18:24

the other life. Right. Exactly

1:18:26

right. All right. Let's go.

1:18:30

This is the Glenn Beck program.

1:18:47

Our kids and grandkids don't remember

Polaroid pictures and VHS tapes. Today

we memorialize our daily lives to

1:18:53

the cloud and to our devices.

1:18:55

But what about the memories tucked

1:18:57

away on aging VHS tapes, film

1:18:59

reels, or photographs? These cherished memories

1:19:01

are fading away with time, vulnerable

and Stu for Glenn. Let's go. to

1:20:00

Kent in Utah. Hey Kent, you're

1:20:02

on the Glenn Beck program with Patten Stu. Thank

1:20:05

you. Happy to be here. I

1:20:08

wanted to let you know, from my

1:20:10

position on abortion is I am wholly

1:20:12

against it. I think

1:20:15

it's, as you guys have

1:20:17

described, I think it's murder, but I think it's

1:20:19

the sin of our generation. That

1:20:21

being said, as

1:20:24

we've listened to the discussion today,

1:20:26

it reminds me of

1:20:29

the negotiations that the delegates had

1:20:31

during the signing of the Declaration

1:20:33

of Independence, where there was

1:20:35

a paragraph in there about

1:20:37

slavery. And as the

1:20:39

days became, as it became

1:20:42

time to approve or not the Declaration

1:20:44

of Independence, John Adams,

1:20:46

I believe, was vehemently against removing

1:20:49

the paragraph, but if he had not done

1:20:51

so, it would never have

1:20:53

been approved. Well, it wouldn't have been

1:20:55

approved unanimously. That's true. There were two

1:20:57

states opposing it. Which

1:20:59

was required to have it passed. And

1:21:02

so the step the

1:21:04

men took, I believe, was to

1:21:07

concede their values in some

1:21:10

way against slavery, to get

1:21:12

the independence first, and then... Yes, and then

1:21:14

fight that battle later, which they did with

1:21:17

the death of 700,000 Americans.

1:21:19

I don't know if I would necessarily put

1:21:21

that on my top of

1:21:24

my resume for decisions all the

1:21:26

time. I didn't necessarily turn up.

1:21:28

But I mean, I think it's

1:21:30

a rational argument that pragmatism is

1:21:32

real. It's not all just people

1:21:34

folding for their own personal benefits.

1:21:36

Sometimes you have to do these

1:21:38

things. It's not where I stand

1:21:40

on it, but

1:21:42

I do understand why people are

1:21:45

there. I've talked to real

1:21:47

conservatives who really think, look, and

1:21:50

I think there's a reason to believe as well that

1:21:52

maybe Donald Trump gets in there, and he's walking

1:21:55

these lines for politics now, and he gets in

1:21:57

there, and he is the same guy he was

1:21:59

in 2016. which obviously turned

1:22:01

out pretty well for pro-life causes. Mm-hmm. So,

1:22:03

I mean, I think that's a totally defensible

1:22:06

position. I just wish there's a little bit

1:22:08

more, you know, a little bit more in

1:22:10

the platform. That being said, maybe nobody cares

1:22:13

about it. Maybe it's

1:22:15

just like, it's just meaningless and no one

1:22:17

ever reads them anyway and why should we

1:22:19

bother, who cares? I just, it's kind

1:22:22

of an important issue, Pat. An important

1:22:24

one to me. Me too. Me

1:25:08

a few minutes but we got to get this

1:25:10

breaking news to you because it's that

1:25:12

important for those of you

1:25:15

wondering whether you should be supporting Joe

1:25:17

Biden to step down as the nominee

1:25:19

or supporting him as remaining the nominee

1:25:21

we now have our answer we know

1:25:23

what you've been waiting for you've

1:25:25

been waiting for the decider to speak

1:25:28

on this and and he

1:25:30

has now he has he has George Clooney

1:25:32

has announced his position so it's over it's

1:25:34

over now I've got one way or the

1:25:36

other it's over we played

1:25:38

you a very suspicious announcement from

1:25:40

Nancy Pelosi earlier on the program

1:25:42

we have that handy by any

1:25:45

chance listen this is bizarre because

1:25:47

Joe Biden came out and has

1:25:49

been saying all week I'm

1:25:51

not going anywhere now almost it'll be two weeks

1:25:53

tomorrow yeah he's been saying it the whole time

1:25:55

yep over and over and over and over again

1:25:58

and starting Monday really put the full before court

1:26:00

pressed on this. I'm releasing a letter. I am

1:26:02

staying in every speech. I am staying in. And

1:26:05

we have not heard much from Nancy Pelosi

1:26:07

on this topic. We finally did hear from

1:26:10

her on MSNBC today, specifically

1:26:12

challenged on what she thinks should happen.

1:26:14

Here's what she said. Does he have

1:26:16

your support to be the head of

1:26:18

the Democratic ticket? As long as the

1:26:20

president has the president, it's up to the

1:26:22

president to subside if he is going to

1:26:24

run. We're all encouraging him

1:26:27

to make that decision because

1:26:30

time is running short. I

1:26:34

think overwhelming support of the caucus, it's not

1:26:36

for me to say. I'm not the head

1:26:39

of the caucus anymore. But he's

1:26:42

beloved. He is

1:26:44

respected. Is he? And people want

1:26:46

him to make that decision. Yes, he

1:26:48

has said he has made the decision. He

1:26:50

has said firmly this week, he is going

1:26:52

to run. Do you want him to run?

1:26:55

I want him to do whatever he decides

1:26:58

to do. And that's the way it is.

1:27:00

Whatever he decides, we go with. Well,

1:27:02

yeah, he already said he decided. That's

1:27:05

amazing. It is amazing. You

1:27:07

can't take a side on

1:27:09

that? You have to. It's

1:27:11

so awkward and so intentional.

1:27:14

She is cold as ice. Cold

1:27:18

as ice, man. Man, she is a

1:27:20

machine. Even in her age that she

1:27:22

can't say decide anymore, she's

1:27:24

still a cold-blooded political machine. It's up to

1:27:27

the president to subside. To

1:27:30

subside. It really is up to

1:27:32

the president to subside. Now, George Clooney does not even address

1:27:38

what Nancy Pelosi said. The subsiding

1:27:40

of the president. No. But

1:27:43

we have seen another major official

1:27:46

come out as well of TMZ kind

1:27:48

of cornered George Stephanopoulos. This is after

1:27:52

the interview and everything and

1:27:54

asked him, hey, like, what do you think about? And

1:27:56

it's amazing that he would think this is a bad thing. I don't think he would. I

1:28:00

think Stephanopoulos knew he was being recorded,

1:28:02

but I mean, how do you not know? You're

1:28:05

a big time news anchor. You're

1:28:08

supposedly a journalist. You got

1:28:10

to be careful with that stuff, right? But he wasn't. Now,

1:28:13

it was the question was, do you think Biden

1:28:15

should step down? You've talked to him more than

1:28:17

anybody else has lately. And George's response was, quote,

1:28:19

I don't think he can serve four more years.

1:28:21

Now, he's apologized for that. Why would

1:28:24

you apologize for your opinion on that? Or

1:28:26

he's apologized for telling the truth. The first

1:28:28

time he's ever done it, so now he's

1:28:30

very nervous. He's lost his

1:28:32

entire character of lying, and he's telling

1:28:34

the truth. It's a fascinating

1:28:36

thing because you know who else knows that he won't serve

1:28:38

four more years? All humans. Yeah.

1:28:43

All human beings know this is

1:28:46

not possible. He's not going to

1:28:48

make it to 87 years old in the White House.

1:28:50

That's not going to occur. George

1:28:53

Clooney is out, Pat, and he

1:28:56

says this, a new headline, Op-Ed for

1:28:58

The New York Times, which has really

1:29:00

been leading the charge on this stuff

1:29:02

from the beginning. Interestingly. Uh-huh.

1:29:04

He says, I love Joe Biden, but we

1:29:06

need a new nominee by

1:29:09

George Clooney. Holy cow. Now,

1:29:11

you might say, okay, again, George

1:29:14

Clooney is a very prominent actor. Huge

1:29:16

fundraiser, though, for the Democratic Party. That's

1:29:19

the important thing here. They just held

1:29:21

a massive fundraiser for him that I

1:29:23

think they took in the most money

1:29:25

in a single night ever. He mentions

1:29:27

this, yeah. Last month, I co-hosted the

1:29:29

single largest fundraiser supporting any Democratic candidate

1:29:32

ever, a month ago. Jeez.

1:29:35

For President Biden's reelection. Yeah, it was like 30 million

1:29:37

in one night. He says, I

1:29:39

love Joe Biden as a senator, as a vice

1:29:41

president, and a president. I consider him a friend.

1:29:43

I believe in him, believe in his character, believe

1:29:45

in his morals. Uh-huh. It's

1:29:47

just incredible. Yeah. The

1:29:50

last four years, he's won, I mean, the guy did

1:29:52

have a tequila company. Maybe he's drunk writing this. I

1:29:55

believe in his morals. In the

1:29:57

last four years, he's won many of the battles

1:29:59

he's faced. But the one battle

1:30:01

he cannot win is

1:30:03

the fight against time. Wow, that

1:30:05

was beautiful. Beautifully put. None of

1:30:08

us can, Pat. Okay. It's devastating to

1:30:10

say it, but the Joe Biden, I

1:30:12

was with three- Devastating. I'm

1:30:14

devastated. I'm devastated. Yeah. The Biden I

1:30:17

was with three weeks ago at the

1:30:19

fundraiser was not the Joe big effing

1:30:21

deal Biden of 2010. He

1:30:24

wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He's

1:30:28

admitting that he noticed the decline when

1:30:30

he was with him. Before the debate.

1:30:33

Oh my gosh. That's interesting

1:30:35

to me. This is an interesting nugget. You

1:30:37

raised $30 million for the guy. And now,

1:30:40

only now, a month later, we're

1:30:42

hearing that he wasn't in good shape. Can

1:30:45

you imagine being one of these donors? You

1:30:47

just got bilked out of

1:30:49

$30 million. And

1:30:51

they're just like, oh yeah, by the way, we knew the

1:30:53

whole time he had no chance of being president. Listen

1:30:57

to the way he phrases this. It's devastating to say

1:30:59

it, but the Joe Biden, I was with three weeks

1:31:01

ago at the fundraiser, was not the Joe big effing

1:31:03

deal Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden

1:31:05

of 2020. He was the

1:31:07

same man we all witnessed at the

1:31:09

debate. That's

1:31:13

huge. Huge. So it was

1:31:15

not a one-time thing. He

1:31:18

is saying- Which

1:31:20

will, though. But of course. I mean, this is silly.

1:31:22

But come on. But he's admitting it. He's admitting that he saw it.

1:31:25

He goes on and he says, was he tired? Yes.

1:31:28

A cold? Maybe. But

1:31:30

our party leaders need to stop

1:31:33

telling us that 51 million people

1:31:35

didn't see what we just saw.

1:31:38

And that, I mean, what a reinforcement

1:31:41

that a guy who's this big

1:31:43

an ally of Joe Biden, enough

1:31:45

to hold this fundraiser and

1:31:48

talk all of his Hollywood big

1:31:50

shot friends into donating up to

1:31:52

$30 million. That's

1:31:55

not a piece, but collectively. That's a lot of

1:31:57

money. That's a lot of money. I mean, if

1:31:59

you- ever done a fundraiser, you

1:32:01

know they're not easy, you know? Even

1:32:04

for great causes, let alone crappy

1:32:06

causes like this one. Yeah. So,

1:32:09

30 million dollars is

1:32:11

raised and you've got this guy

1:32:13

who raised it saying, yeah, he's

1:32:15

bad, he's in bad shape, yeah,

1:32:18

he can't continue. This is

1:32:20

not the same dude that

1:32:22

people think they

1:32:25

voted for in 2020. That's incredible.

1:32:27

That's huge to me. Wow. And

1:32:30

I think, look, the Clooney thing is big. That

1:32:33

Pelosi clip is massive. Yeah. Because this

1:32:37

is someone in leadership basically saying, hey

1:32:39

Joe, what was your

1:32:41

answer on that? You should think about

1:32:43

it again and answer again. Well, that's

1:32:45

what she's saying without saying it. Right.

1:32:47

She's saying, you're wrong, Joe. Think about

1:32:50

it again. Because it's not like she

1:32:52

didn't hear him say it. She knows he

1:32:54

said it. Right. And the

1:32:57

host states it right back to her face. She

1:33:00

is basically telling, that's basically

1:33:02

her saying publicly, step down.

1:33:05

And to the point where she's so

1:33:07

old and also can't speak, she says

1:33:09

he has to subside whether he's going

1:33:12

to step down. She's incoherent too. It's

1:33:14

up to the president to subside. It

1:33:18

is. It's a combination,

1:33:20

I think, of secede and

1:33:23

decide. And decide, I think. Perhaps. Or

1:33:25

it's just a drunk slur. Is it

1:33:27

step aside and secede? You're giving her

1:33:29

too much credit. I think she's just

1:33:31

hammered. But I

1:33:34

will say that that's significant. And

1:33:36

if I am Joe Biden, I

1:33:39

don't care

1:33:42

what George Clooney says or what Nancy

1:33:44

Pelosi says. My nomination. I

1:33:46

probably care more about what George Clooney

1:33:49

says than Nancy Pelosi. Because he's the

1:33:51

big fundraiser. Nancy Pelosi is not doing

1:33:53

squat for you. I would just get

1:33:55

angry at Pelosi. Right? Like screw you.

1:33:57

You're a hundred years old too. Right.

1:34:00

I mean, is she older than him? I want to say she's older

1:34:02

than him. Am I wrong about that? No, I think she is. I

1:34:05

think she is. Is she 83? I

1:34:07

want to say she's 83. Now,

1:34:09

she did step down from leadership. She's 84. Wow.

1:34:13

She did step down. I mean, she's older

1:34:15

than Mitch McConnell, Joe Biden, and Donald Trump

1:34:17

by significant margins. She

1:34:20

did step down from leadership, but not because she said

1:34:22

she was incapable of doing the

1:34:24

job, and she kept the seat. She

1:34:27

has nothing to speak for. I mean, it's

1:34:29

insanity that she's doing this. Now,

1:34:31

part of this is because I really want Joe Biden to

1:34:34

remain the nominee, and that's probably somewhat

1:34:36

revealing to Democrats

1:34:38

who might be listening as to what they

1:34:40

should do, right? If

1:34:43

Pat and Stu are saying, I think

1:34:46

Joe Biden should remain the nominee, you probably don't

1:34:48

want him as the nominee. I know if I

1:34:50

were a Democrat, I would have been arguing years

1:34:52

ago. No way, another term with this

1:34:55

guy. No way. We lucked out in 2020.

1:34:57

Somehow we're here.

1:35:00

I don't want Kamala Harris either. I want

1:35:03

a real freaking primary. Make

1:35:06

him fight his way

1:35:08

through this field like every other person. If

1:35:10

he wins, he wins, but I

1:35:12

don't want him. He should step

1:35:14

down immediately. In fact, I would probably have been

1:35:17

demanding him stepping down a couple of years ago

1:35:21

from the presidency, not just the campaign. I

1:35:24

want him out from there, even as a Democrat.

1:35:26

If you care about the country, that's

1:35:28

what you would want. Oh, yeah, but I'm

1:35:31

a Democrat, so I wouldn't necessarily- That's the

1:35:33

thing. There you go. All right. Triple eight,

1:35:35

1:35:51

it be nice to live in a world where your

credit card balance wasn't hit with compound interest? It

would be a great world to live in.

Unfortunately, we don't live in that. world. And

1:36:01

if you're not making those payments, you got to deal with the compound

with all the debt up to your eyeballs. Well,

what about the kind of debt that can wipe out your

1:36:14

kind of debt? Probably, if you're a

1:36:16

fiscally responsible person, you should be able to find

1:36:18

a little time in your day to give the

1:38:16

books Jeffy every week. All right. Speaking

1:38:18

of which, you're gonna be gone tomorrow, right? I

1:38:21

am, going on a little vacation with my wife a couple

1:38:23

of nights. Going to a cooler locale? Yes, a

1:38:25

place that's not 134 degrees every day. That

1:38:28

will be very, very nice. Well, global warming,

1:38:30

if you weren't such a global warming denier,

1:38:34

maybe we could do something about this, Stu. Maybe

1:38:36

we could change the climate on this planet. What

1:38:38

would you do? If you would

1:38:40

just get on board, okay? With

1:38:43

spending the kind of money it's gonna take. Okay.

1:38:46

And living the kind of life that it's going to take

1:38:48

to change the climate. How much money we talking about here?

1:38:50

I'd like chicken feed, like 190 to 100 million, or

1:38:56

I'm sorry, trillion.

1:38:59

Wait, trillion? Maybe quadrillion. Okay,

1:39:01

now it's probably quadrillion. Wait,

1:39:04

but hold on, let me just ask you

1:39:06

this one, one minor question on this. Okay,

1:39:08

one minor question. You were telling me a

1:39:10

little while ago that you already passed the

1:39:12

most consequential climate bill of

1:39:14

all time, the inflation

1:39:16

reduction act. So

1:39:21

now you need another $100 trillion? $100

1:39:24

trillion, yes, right.

1:39:26

Because I'm a little concerned that

1:39:29

maybe this is a bottomless pit.

1:39:31

I need a million, trillion, thousand

1:39:33

dollars to do it. Okay. A

1:39:36

thousand trillion million billion

1:39:39

to do this. And look,

1:39:44

let me put it this way. And

1:39:52

I really mean that. Did you beat Medicare? I

1:39:55

beat Medicare. I did beat Medicare. Thank

1:39:57

you for the reminder, Dan. one

1:40:00

more question while we're on that topic. Cause you know, you're

1:40:02

asking for a hundred trillion. Can I just ask you about

1:40:04

million billion? Can I ask you about $230 million for a

1:40:06

second? Okay. That

1:40:08

was the cost of the pier you built.

1:40:11

The piazza. And

1:40:13

it didn't do

1:40:15

anything. And now

1:40:17

they're deconstructing it because it

1:40:19

failed completely. Love that story

1:40:22

by the way. I will say it might

1:40:24

be my favorite story. It is

1:40:27

every Joe Biden policy in

1:40:30

a nutshell. It starts off with

1:40:32

these big expectations, these incredible warm

1:40:34

feelings for all the good it's

1:40:36

going to do. We're altruistic. Yeah.

1:40:39

We're actually going to feed the people

1:40:41

that we're eliminating

1:40:43

as well on the side. But

1:40:46

I mean, America does that, right?

1:40:48

We dropped food

1:40:50

to the Afghans. Cause the theory obviously is

1:40:52

that we're just, we're fighting against the government,

1:40:54

not the people. So we're trying to feed

1:40:56

the people. And they're doing that

1:40:58

again here. But everybody

1:41:01

said, look, Hamas

1:41:03

doesn't want this. You're

1:41:05

going to be attacked while you're building it. And they were.

1:41:08

And they were. But I think this

1:41:10

is so reminiscent of all of their policies.

1:41:12

You got the supposed feel good intentions. You

1:41:15

got the gushingly positive media attention, highlighting all

1:41:17

the caring reasons we're doing this. You've

1:41:19

got the sort of legalistic rule bending they do on

1:41:21

all this stuff. This one was,

1:41:24

we don't have any troops on the ground.

1:41:27

We've got troops on a

1:41:29

pier 20 feet from the

1:41:31

ground. That's not real. The

1:41:33

back flips they had to do to make that work. So

1:41:37

ridiculous. It never had a realistic possibility

1:41:39

of solving the problem. It

1:41:42

was massively expensive. It was

1:41:44

massively over budget. Of

1:41:46

course, the result of it, we

1:41:48

immediately knew it was doing

1:41:51

less good than was promised. And

1:41:53

sure enough, Hamas didn't allow it.

1:41:55

And Hamas stole a lot of

1:41:58

this. We were actually helping. terrorists

1:42:00

with it. The peer literally

1:42:03

crumbled into pieces just like all of

1:42:05

his other policies. And,

1:42:08

of course, the failure of the

1:42:10

idea never really gets acknowledged. We don't

1:42:12

really have a conversation as to why we

1:42:15

allowed this to happen in the first place.

1:42:17

I will say I don't ever remember a

1:42:19

bill being passed to fund $230 million. They

1:42:21

just redirected it from

1:42:24

other sources. But like, at some point,

1:42:26

shouldn't they be held responsible for this

1:42:28

massive failure? No,

1:42:31

because nobody ever is. Nobody

1:42:34

ever is. It's like they just built a

1:42:36

building and it fell over. I know. Like,

1:42:38

wouldn't the construction company get some blame for

1:42:40

that? You would think. You'd think. But no,

1:42:42

here, we're all going to just... They built

1:42:44

a giant metal Lego set in the sea

1:42:46

that got rolled over the first

1:42:48

time a wave came by and we're all like,

1:42:50

gosh, there's a surprise. Well, he really meant well.

1:42:54

Sure, he took $230 million. Think

1:42:56

about that amount, Pat. Like, all

1:42:59

of the money you will ever pay

1:43:01

in taxes your entire life went to

1:43:03

fund one half of one of the

1:43:05

Lego pieces to build that pier that

1:43:09

ended up in the ocean that did

1:43:11

nothing for anybody. We've been so desensitized to

1:43:14

the money that the government spends though. People

1:43:16

think, $230 million is not bad. It is

1:43:20

really true. People don't even acknowledge

1:43:22

it. Nope. I mean, I think it could

1:43:24

be $230 billion and people

1:43:26

might not be necessarily moved. Yep.

1:43:30

It takes over a trillion dollars now to

1:43:32

get us to even pay attention. And that's

1:43:35

how we wound up in the situation we're in. Speaking

1:43:39

of what's going on in the Middle

1:43:41

East, did you see Kamala Harris's response

1:43:43

to the anti-Israeli

1:43:46

protesters? She

1:43:48

was asked about, I guess,

1:43:50

their motives and things. And what

1:43:52

she had to say was they're showing

1:43:55

exactly what the human emotion should be.

1:43:59

Wait, huh? What? What does that

1:44:01

even mean? Showing exactly what the human

1:44:03

emotion should be? Is the human

1:44:05

emotion that we should all hate Israel or

1:44:07

Jews? Or what are you talking about? Mmm.

1:44:11

Just bizarre. And these are the people

1:44:14

leading the way. And you

1:44:16

wonder why we're in the situation we're in. It's

1:44:24

up to the president to subside

1:44:26

Glenn Beck. For

1:44:30

years I was living in constant pain.

1:44:32

There were days I couldn't move my

1:44:34

hands, I couldn't paint, I couldn't write.

1:44:36

Honestly it was so bad I had

1:44:38

a hard time even doing work. I

1:44:40

tried to tough it out, just grin

1:44:42

and bear it, until Tanya finally, after

1:44:44

we went to the Mayo Clinic, we

1:44:46

went everywhere. And Tanya had heard about

1:44:48

Relief Factor on the blaze, and she

1:44:50

said, why don't you try that? She

1:44:52

kind of pretty much made me try

1:44:54

it, and it was amazing. It's been

1:44:56

a miracle. Relief Factor is 100% drug

1:44:58

1:45:00

1:45:06

the inflammation where the pain starts. And

1:45:08

1:45:10

helps reduce or even eliminate it all

1:45:12

day, every day. So if everyday pain

1:45:14

1:45:16

eight, seven two seven, B-E-C-K. Don't

1:46:08

forget if you're looking for the tastiest cookie on

1:46:11

the planet. I'd love a tasty cookie. kexy.com.

1:46:13

How do I spell that though? K-E-K-S-I,

1:46:15

it's like sexy with a K. Well,

1:46:18

and spelled differently. Obviously. So

1:46:20

nothing like, it just rhymes with sexy.

1:46:22

Okay, that might be the better way

1:46:24

to say it. Yeah, it rhymes, that's

1:46:26

about it. Kexy cookies, they're delicious. 15%

1:46:29

off right now too. My wife brought

1:46:32

home, she experiments with stuff and tries out

1:46:34

new flavors and we got this new flavor,

1:46:37

coffee cake cookie. Oh, yes. You

1:46:40

like coffee cake? Yes. Sitting all over the top. Oh,

1:46:42

she brought it home. And I, you know, I can't

1:46:44

eat this because of diabetes, but I did have a

1:46:46

bite of it. Oh my

1:46:49

gosh. Wait, but. Unreal. Now

1:46:51

my understanding is. It's available in August, but not right now. My

1:46:53

understanding is when you take a bite of something you are eating

1:46:55

it, is that not true? No, I spit

1:46:57

it out. Yeah, sure

1:47:00

you did. Yeah,

1:47:02

I just spit it right up, but it was delicious. All

1:47:05

right, so who

1:47:07

will Donald J. Trump select

1:47:10

as vice president? The

1:47:12

speculation has been really rampant lately because

1:47:14

there's so many rumors. He's gonna decide

1:47:16

today. He decided yesterday, but he's gonna

1:47:19

tell us tomorrow. He's gonna decide during

1:47:21

the convention. He's gonna decide right before

1:47:23

it. He's gonna decide after it. There's

1:47:25

not gonna be a vice president. I've

1:47:28

heard all of it. It's so ridiculous. Which

1:47:30

is it? It's been fun in a way

1:47:32

because if you know Donald Trump and you

1:47:34

know the way he operates and his campaign

1:47:36

operates, this has just been him screwing with

1:47:38

the media for months. Yeah. Like, you know.

1:47:40

He does enjoy that. Yes, it's just like

1:47:42

a yo-yo. He just keeps putting it out

1:47:44

there and bringing it back in. They have

1:47:46

said literally every combination of everything. He's

1:47:49

already made the decision. He won't make the decision for

1:47:51

a long time. He's got a huge field. He's down

1:47:53

to the last couple. The latest

1:47:55

report was he's down to three. I

1:47:58

actually heard two. They seem

1:48:00

to be jamming Rubio in now.

1:48:02

Yeah. So the two are

1:48:05

Doug Burgum, Burgumentum in effect. Any sense

1:48:07

to me? I don't understand that one.

1:48:09

I don't really get it either, but

1:48:12

I mean, he's supposedly good on energy.

1:48:14

Yeah. You know, so, but like,

1:48:16

I don't know. There was

1:48:18

a thought at one point because of his fundraising

1:48:20

difficulties several months ago. Yeah,

1:48:23

that's not an issue now. Not an issue. Not to

1:48:25

mention he's a billionaire. If he wants to put money in his campaign, he used to

1:48:27

put it in his campaign. Yeah. And

1:48:29

of course he also has lots of other billionaires

1:48:31

that support him. I don't think money is going

1:48:33

to determine this election. I

1:48:36

never bought it. And

1:48:38

Burgum isn't like Elon Musk, right? Like,

1:48:40

isn't he only a hundred millionaire? Like

1:48:42

he's not even a billionaire. I don't

1:48:44

think. I don't think so. But

1:48:46

he's not like, again, that's a

1:48:48

lot of money. Yeah. But throwing

1:48:51

an extra hundred million. He doesn't live in a double

1:48:53

wide trailer and he doesn't wonder where his next meal

1:48:55

is coming from. That's true. But

1:48:57

I don't think a billionaire. The fact that he might

1:48:59

throw a hundred million dollars of his personal money into

1:49:01

this campaign, does that really move the needle for you

1:49:03

if you're Donald Trump? Like so?

1:49:05

Yeah. It's not really going to

1:49:07

make the determination as to who wins or loses this campaign,

1:49:09

I don't think. So Burgum is up

1:49:11

there. And then J.D.

1:49:14

Vance was the other one mentioned as

1:49:16

the top two candidates. From Ohio. Senator

1:49:18

from Ohio, 39 years old. He

1:49:21

is very well aligned with the sort of

1:49:24

America First MAGA platform. Well he's adopted all

1:49:26

of the MAGA platforms. He's changed quite a

1:49:28

bit. He's changed ideals. He has changed quite

1:49:30

a bit over the years. He was a

1:49:32

Trump critic in 2016. Obviously

1:49:35

well known for his book, Hillbilly

1:49:38

Elegy, which kind of gives

1:49:40

you the terrible story

1:49:42

of life in the Midwest

1:49:44

and drugs and opioids. But

1:49:48

he tells a story of the real problems of that

1:49:50

area, which I think is an interesting thing that's been

1:49:52

a little overlooked with him. A lot of people say,

1:49:55

well, he's from Ohio. He's going to win Ohio anyway.

1:50:00

is in a region of states

1:50:02

that he really does need to

1:50:04

win with problems he's incredibly well

1:50:06

familiarized with. He

1:50:08

knows the issues affecting that region

1:50:11

really well. So

1:50:13

I think that is something to

1:50:15

consider politically. And then the other

1:50:17

one was mentioned was Marco Rubio. As we

1:50:19

talked about, there is an issue with

1:50:21

two candidates coming from Florida, but it's solvable.

1:50:24

They'll figure a way out of that if they

1:50:26

want to pick Rubio. Rubio can be impressive as

1:50:28

a politician. I've seen him speak live before and

1:50:31

he, at times, I think is really, really good.

1:50:33

I think we were really pleasantly surprised in 2015

1:50:35

when he came to Dallas and you, me, and

1:50:38

Glenn went to the rally and were really

1:50:40

favorably impressed by what he had to say.

1:50:43

He was really good. He was good. And

1:50:45

I think he will not hurt Trump. None

1:50:48

of these guys, some make the argument

1:50:50

that Vance is a little risky on this front. I will

1:50:53

make the argument I think Bergam is actually risky on this

1:50:55

front. And everyone's saying he's the safe choice. He

1:50:57

is totally unproven, totally

1:51:01

unproven at this level. You

1:51:04

are taking a guy out of single A and pushing him

1:51:06

into the majors and saying, well, he hit 330 in the

1:51:08

minors. Okay.

1:51:12

But Vance has been on television constantly.

1:51:14

He's gone through a major campaign recently.

1:51:16

He's been on media tours forever. All

1:51:19

of his stuff is sort of out there. Rubio

1:51:22

is even more well vetted because

1:51:24

he was actually a presidential candidate already. He went

1:51:26

through this fire already and dealt with some of

1:51:29

the problems that are associated with it. I

1:51:31

mean, I think Vance is a

1:51:34

better communicator than

1:51:36

Bergam is. So I

1:51:38

would be less worried about him having

1:51:40

those, but like people

1:51:42

criticize the Sarah Palin choice because

1:51:45

she was an unknown

1:51:47

governor from a

1:51:49

rural state without

1:51:51

a large population that seemed to have a decent

1:51:53

record in that state. And then she was put

1:51:55

on that platform and there were issues. I

1:51:58

don't see why you wouldn't see that. as a

1:52:00

risk at least with Doug Burgum. They're acting like this

1:52:02

guy like is, you know, the most, he's

1:52:05

been in our lives for a hundred years. No

1:52:07

one knew who Doug Burgum was six months ago. Unless

1:52:10

you lived in North Dakota. When he announced

1:52:12

for president, no one knew who he

1:52:14

was. And now all of

1:52:16

a sudden he's the safe choice. Like

1:52:19

that is, it might be true, but

1:52:21

there is absolute risk there. We have no idea

1:52:23

how this guy performs on a stage like that.

1:52:26

The only thing we have is he was in a couple, it

1:52:28

was only one debate, wasn't he? Maybe he was in two primary

1:52:31

debates where Trump wasn't there and

1:52:34

he was very forgettable. So

1:52:37

maybe the idea is, well, he'll be very forgettable

1:52:39

in the campaign too. And that's fine for Donald

1:52:41

Trump. Probably true. But

1:52:43

man, I don't know. That one seems like a

1:52:45

risk. So should we go through some of these

1:52:47

other people that are possibilities? Tell me

1:52:50

if you think these are real possibilities. Tim Scott, you think he's in

1:52:52

it or out of it? No, I think he's out. I

1:52:54

have not heard a lot of Scott Buzz lately. No. So

1:52:57

I don't think he's going to be the choice, but

1:53:00

I wouldn't say he's completely, I wouldn't be stunned

1:53:02

if it was Scott. I just don't think it's

1:53:04

going to happen. Here's

1:53:07

one that has not been talked about,

1:53:09

but I could see Trump potentially doing,

1:53:12

which is Glenn Youngkin. You think there's any

1:53:14

possibility of that? I think there's a chance.

1:53:17

He did mention him last week or the

1:53:19

week before. He said, yeah, he's one of

1:53:21

the names I'm considering. Okay. And

1:53:24

what you like with Youngkin is

1:53:26

he did very well with the

1:53:28

suburban woman crowd that Trump struggled

1:53:30

with in 2020. Issues

1:53:32

like education and stuff, prominent issues, obviously, in

1:53:34

this election potentially. And Virginia is a state

1:53:37

where normally is not competitive, but right now

1:53:39

is. I think the polling from Virginia shows

1:53:41

a pretty close race there. Maybe he could

1:53:43

help you there. Obviously, if you win Virginia

1:53:46

and you're a Republican, it's probably over. You've

1:53:48

probably won the election already. Tulsi

1:53:51

Gabbard, I ain't real. I don't

1:53:53

think so. No, I don't

1:53:55

think there's a chance. I would be shocked, but there

1:53:57

is an argument for it. Right?

1:53:59

Like especially. the way he's handling abortion. We just

1:54:01

dealt with this last hour. If you want to

1:54:04

kind of softly, soft play the

1:54:06

abortion issue, you pick basically a

1:54:08

Democratic woman. Who's pro-choice. Who's pro-choice and you stick

1:54:10

around the ticket. I think it's a terrible idea.

1:54:13

I do not want a Bernie Sanders campaign volunteer

1:54:15

as the potential president of the United States, but

1:54:17

what I will say is I don't get to

1:54:19

make that decision and I do like Tulsi Gabbard.

1:54:21

Yeah, I do too. I like her. But we're

1:54:23

so easy on the right. Anybody

1:54:26

is who looks like an

1:54:28

oasis in the desert of liberalism,

1:54:30

we're like, yes, please give me

1:54:32

that. And I

1:54:34

think she benefits from that because she

1:54:37

comes from the left. She supported

1:54:39

Bernie Sanders at one point for

1:54:42

president. But

1:54:44

now, she seems much

1:54:46

more in line with a lot of

1:54:48

what we believe. But

1:54:50

there's too many differences for me. Too many

1:54:52

differences. And again, if she's... The

1:54:56

candidate's 78 years old. I know we keep talking

1:54:58

about the other guy who's really, really old and

1:55:00

looks like he's about to collapse at any moment.

1:55:03

But Donald Trump, a

1:55:05

lot of people are completely cogent when

1:55:07

they pass away. He's right around the

1:55:09

age... And she could become president is

1:55:12

kind of the point. God

1:55:14

forbid, I hope it doesn't happen obviously, but I'm

1:55:16

nervous about that. This is an important pick. Ben

1:55:19

Carson, any chance you think he picks him? I hope not. I

1:55:22

think no. And he's mentioned him a few times, but I don't

1:55:24

think so. I don't think that's real. I don't think he's really

1:55:26

picking him. The fake Ramaswami. I

1:55:28

don't think so. He wouldn't be bad at all. No. I

1:55:31

wouldn't mind that. And consistent with the sort of platform

1:55:34

that Trump has. There's a

1:55:36

similarity there. He has publicly

1:55:38

ruled him out, but then seemingly ruled him back

1:55:41

in later on. So I don't

1:55:43

know. Just keep a position in the White House spokesperson

1:55:46

arena. Keep that open for him. Because

1:55:48

he'd certainly be able to do that.

1:55:51

Imagine anybody better as good

1:55:53

as he is speaking

1:55:55

and ad-libbing... The press wouldn't

1:55:57

hate him. Oh, they'd hate him so much. Oh my gosh.

1:55:59

They'd hate him. he would run circles around him. Elise

1:56:02

Stefanik? I just don't think she's well enough. No.

1:56:04

Well known enough. She's also not super conservative. She

1:56:06

did do a great job on the Israel protests,

1:56:09

I will say. Yeah. Kristy Noem?

1:56:12

No. No chance. The dog thing, I

1:56:15

think, sunk that one, unfortunately, for Kristy. Nikki

1:56:17

Haley? No. No. No. Mike Pence?

1:56:20

Mike Pence is on this list. No. I'm pretty sure

1:56:23

he's not going to hate Mike Pence now. Would you

1:56:25

be hilarious if you're just like, yeah, we're running it

1:56:27

back. I got Mike Pence on

1:56:29

the ticket, Trump. We don't even have to print new

1:56:31

decals. It'd be fun for a few days talking about

1:56:33

it. It would be hilarious. That's, we should go through

1:56:35

what our most fun scenario is for how this plays

1:56:38

out. I have an idea for it. All right. Let

1:56:40

me give a couple more names before we do that.

1:56:42

Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I think that's an interest. That's a

1:56:44

possibility. I think it's a small

1:56:46

chance, but it's an interesting one. She's

1:56:49

been very loyal. You know how important

1:56:51

loyalty is to him. And I don't

1:56:53

know of anybody more loyal than she's

1:56:55

been. There was some conflict about her

1:56:57

not endorsing early. She didn't endorse Trump

1:57:00

in the primary very early. So there

1:57:03

was some ruffled feathers supposedly

1:57:05

about that. Byron Donalds, there's a chance of that. He's

1:57:07

been mentioned a lot. I just don't think so. He's

1:57:09

not well known enough. It's not a bad pick. No,

1:57:11

he's a good guy. I like him, but I don't

1:57:13

think that's going to happen. Tom Cotton. No.

1:57:15

No, I don't think so. Any other, no, I

1:57:17

don't think so. So here's my scenario for most

1:57:20

fun thing that happens in this election. All

1:57:23

right. Kamala

1:57:27

Harris organizes a Kamala

1:57:29

coup. She

1:57:32

gets the cabinet officials on board, and

1:57:34

they launch the 25th Amendment challenge

1:57:37

and get Joe Biden thrown out of

1:57:39

office. She just decides she's going to

1:57:42

take it. All right. Joe Biden

1:57:44

is so angry about this that

1:57:47

he decides, despite the fact he's been thrown

1:57:49

out of the presidency by

1:57:51

the 25th Amendment, he can

1:57:53

stay on the ticket and

1:57:56

decides to stay on the ticket, holds

1:57:58

on. names a

1:58:01

new vice presidential possibility, whoever

1:58:03

that is, and then loses terribly

1:58:05

in the election. So... That

1:58:09

would be fun. That would be fun. That

1:58:12

would be hilarious. I want that

1:58:14

to happen. It's a little like this

1:58:16

sports talk radio scenarios. There's no chance

1:58:18

of it happening, but that's what I

1:58:20

want. Bob from Birkeland calls in and

1:58:22

says, Hey, Mikey, what if Mickey

1:58:24

Mantle and Alex Rodriguez

1:58:26

have played at the same time

1:58:28

on the same team as Sandy

1:58:31

Colfax? You think they'd win? What

1:58:35

is your Bob from

1:58:37

Northport call? You're

1:58:39

suggesting the most fun that you could have in

1:58:42

this particular election. Do you have a crazy...

1:58:45

The most fun? The one

1:58:47

I'd like to see, obviously. For... Just

1:58:51

best for America. Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about.

1:58:53

Ron DeSantis. Wait. Ron

1:58:55

DeSantis. How does

1:58:57

Ron DeSantis get? Okay, here's the

1:58:59

scenario for that. They go through the

1:59:02

election. Trump and

1:59:04

Biden tie at 269. It

1:59:08

goes to the house and the house selects Ron

1:59:10

DeSantis. Yeah,

1:59:12

I can see that happening. There you go. Any day

1:59:14

now. Just look for it any day now. All

1:59:17

2:00:58

new show, launching tomorrow, Blaze News Tonight.

2:01:00

It's gonna be great, don't miss it.

2:01:03

Again, blazetv.com/Glenn, Glenn30trial is

2:01:05

the code. Let

2:01:07

me give you this from Charles C.W. Cook. He writes,

2:01:09

the press insists that they didn't know how bad it

2:01:11

was. They say they were as shocked

2:01:13

as anyone by what they saw. They

2:01:16

contend they are not the perpetrators, but the

2:01:18

victims. If that's true,

2:01:21

we ought to talk through its implications. If

2:01:23

it's true, then the press was duped and duped by

2:01:25

the federal government of the United States of America. If

2:01:28

it's true, then the executive branch has

2:01:30

been engaged in a massive and effective

2:01:32

conspiracy to keep Biden's infirmity from the

2:01:34

people who were supposed to report the

2:01:36

news. If it's true, then

2:01:39

the White House fooled the media, it

2:01:41

outwitted the media, it embarrassed the media.

2:01:44

If it's true, then the president and his

2:01:46

political party colluded to suppress the ability of

2:01:48

the sacred, fourth estate to relay matters of

2:01:50

public interest to the voters, and in the

2:01:53

process, it made a mockery of the First

2:01:55

Amendment. So, is the press

2:01:57

gonna investigate that? Certainly,

2:01:59

Sal. Sounds like a big story to me. And

2:02:02

by investigate, I don't mean lash out at the president

2:02:04

in the hopes that he'll be replaced by someone who

2:02:06

does better in the polls. I mean,

2:02:08

find out how this happened in the first place. Discover

2:02:11

who knew, when, where, name

2:02:13

names. If Biden goes, he'll

2:02:15

be replaced by someone, probably his own vice president.

2:02:17

How is the press going to make sure that

2:02:19

she and her team don't do exactly the same

2:02:21

thing on a different topic? It's a great way

2:02:23

to call him out on the carpet. Mm-hmm.

2:02:26

Because it's absolutely impossible that they were

2:02:28

duped. They weren't. Unless you don't,

2:02:31

you don't look at your own

2:02:33

coverage. I mean, jeez. They knew.

2:02:36

They knew. They knew what we

2:02:38

knew. They've always known. It's

2:02:40

amazing that they play this game. And

2:02:42

you know, with some people, it works. Oh,

2:02:45

they didn't know he was, he'd

2:02:48

suffered such decline. Just happened.

2:02:51

When did that happen? No one heard some minor

2:02:53

thing popped up. Wow. In

2:02:55

the last week, he's really gone downhill.

2:02:58

Well, now we know from George Clooney it was at least

2:03:00

a week before the debate. Oh, right. That's

2:03:02

when he started going downhill. How many times, this

2:03:05

deadline's going to be extended and extended and extended.
