Now my voice was doing fine until I started talking to you Let me tell you about to ease for everyone

What is the point of having health insurance

Until you have to spend a small fortune

Before it actually helps you

Some people are paying $10,000, $12,000, $15,000 a year out of pocket before their plan kicks in. And if that's not broken, I don't know what is.
Here's the good news. There is a way out.
It's called ease for everyone. And it's exactly what health care should be.
Clear, fair, and open to any adult in America, no matter what zip code, income or job you have. It's you can have it for as little as two hundred and sixty two dollars a month.
You can get unlimited virtual primary care, unlimited urgent care visits for thirty dollars, plus cash back reimbursements for big expenses, hospital stays, ER visits, surgeries, et cetera, et cetera. You don't have to settle for all the high costs and the low

results. Join this fight for freedom.

Hello, Stu. How are you? Glenn, how are you? In D.C.? I am good.
I tell you, the allergies, the trees and everything, they exploded in my throat yesterday. And so I'm not sure how long my voice will last.
And I have to save it because I'm meeting with the president a little later on this afternoon. I'm going to spend a couple of hours with him.
And that show will broadcast tonight at 9 p.m. on Blaze.
So just stick with me. All right.
Let me let's start here with POTUS. I mean, with SCOTUS.
The battle for the kid, the soul of our children began yesterday in the Supreme Court. The case involves a group of parents suing the largest school district in Maryland for their white right to withdraw their children from classes on days that books with gay and transgender characters themes are discussed.
The parents are suing on religious freedom grounds. In 2022, Montgomery County Public Schools added LGBTQ-themed books to their curriculum for students from pre-K through the fifth grade.
The books include things like Pride Puppy, an alphabet book about a family

whose puppy gets lost at a pride parade. Love and Violet, about a girl who has a crush on her

female classmate. These are pre-K to fifth grade.
And Born Ready, about a transgender boy. Again,

these books added to pre-K to fifth grade. This new curriculum is DEI for elementary children.

Now at first, the Maryland School District allowed or alerted parents when the storybooks were going to be used in class and allowed them to have their children excused from the sessions. But the district has since stopped giving both advance notice and an opt out policy saying it's too hard to administer.
I mean, geez, it's really, really. And it leads to lots of absences and stigmatizes some kids.
I want you to know this case is not about a few storybooks, a few colorful, you know, pictures of little puppies getting lost. It's about whether you, as a parent, still have a God-given right to raise your children according to your faith and your values and your common sense.
Do you have the right? Because if the Supreme Court says, no, you don't have that right anymore. If the First Amendment free exercise clause doesn't protect this, your right as a parent, then what is what is what are all our rights even for? If we don't have a right as a parent to parent our children, none of the rights really even matter.
Now the parents who are suing Insist that these books Promote one-sided transgender ideology

Encourage gender transitioning

And focus even matter. Now, the parents who are suing insist that these books, quote, promote one-sided

transgender ideology, encourage gender transitioning and focus excessively on romantic infatuation. By the way, the parents are not seeking to remove the books from classrooms or the children's libraries.
They just don't want their children to have to sit through these indoctrination sessions. Oh, that's not good enough.

You will comply.

That's what it's all about.

They're not trying to erase anyone's story.

They just want to not comply.

They want to shield their children from ideas that contradict their faith.

What is the First Amendment really all about?

See you next time. lie.
They want to shield their children from ideas that contradict their faith. What is the First Amendment really all about? Sounds reasonable.
Sounds like basic parenting 101. First Amendment is clear.
You cannot burden someone's free exercise of religion, forcing kids to engage with ideas that violate their family's deeply held beliefs. That is clearly, clearly a burden.
Religious liberty is in the First Amendment. It is not a second-class right.
It is a first-class right. Besides, this is basic common sense, or at least used to be.
Parents have the right to guide their kids on any sensitive topic like sex, sexuality, or yes, even gender. It's not the school's job.
It's your job, period. Now, this should be a slam dunk for the parents, but I don't even know.
I mean, if the Supreme Court doesn't see that, parents won't just be losing this case. We'll be losing even more freedom to raise our own kids.
This one is a very, very deep red crimson line in the sand that the Supreme Court cannot

cross. But we'll we'll see.
Apparently yesterday, did you hear any of the arguments to?

Yeah, I read about them. It definitely seemed like the conservative justices were a bit skeptical of the idea that you get to force parents to keep their kids in these classes, even if they oppose it when you're reading these books.
But, you know, of course, you you never know we've seen crazy things happen in

the supreme court before i what's fascinating to me is and what's the motivation here glenn you tell me if you're going to have one of these situations where you have these books and as you point out they are not like okay there happens to be a gay character in a book about something else like it is like straight out like books about why you should think these lifestyles and choices are okay right like it is straight out what they're doing to pre-k to fifth year fifth graders so really really young this is not like uh you know some of these situations they like to push out there like oh you don't want high schoolers to read these books it's not even what they're talking about and what could be the motivation of not allowing parents to opt their kids out here they did offer that as you noted they did offer that the first year that these books it's a hassle it's a hassle i love that there's no innocuous there's no innocuous uh explanation for this right it's just we want your kids to believe these things. Therefore, we will force them to stay in class.
What do you mean it's hard to administer? There's all sorts of things that you'd allow kids to leave class for. It's not hard to administer a kid walking out and doing something else learning

something different what's the motivation what's the innocuous uh tale here glenn there is none there is none you you go back to the bible remember sodom and gomorrah and uh you know the angels coming to town they're looking just for one person just what can we find one person and uh they go in and they find one they find one and he sees the angels and he's like come on come on get into the house get into the house and he gets them into the house and you know like you're not safe out there and then they start beating on the door hey let us in we saw these two guys we saw these two guys uh and uh you need to you need to bring them out here the answer was no no i tell you i'll give you my daughter just not these guys now i hope you found that a little you know that's when the angels should have went you know i don't know if we found the right guy here but it was a different time we'll give you our daughter first give you our daughter just leave them alone no no you had to

comply if you were coming in to the city you must comply they wanted to sodomize the angels

no thank you no i'm you know i'm all sodomy i'm all life doctor says i'm getting too much sodomy uh so but that is what's happening again this this even if you don't believe in angels or you don't believe in the story of the bible this is a a very good parable i am going to believe it but it's a very good parable on what was going on. Let's just look at the Bible as just saying, what was the general thing? You could describe it any way you want, but what was generally going on? The city had been taken over by just absolute degenerates and sodomy had become such a big deal.
You know, they actually taught my daughter in a Catholic school at Fordham University. They taught my daughter that sodomy, sodomy dad was just their way of greeting people.
You had a Catholic school teach you that? That sodomy wasn't bad? It was just the way they greeted people? Hey, drop your pants. I you that's ridiculous absolutely ridiculous but that's just the way it was well you know what i don't want to live in a city where they drop their pants to greet you i just don't i think that's probably wrong speak for yourself you know even if that was even lots of people you have to understand you can't opt out of it you You need to make sure that you're participating in the traditional greetings of that society.
This is a philosophy that has no forgiveness, and you're either on board or you're not. You're either 100% in, or you're an out outcast and you will comply.
This is this is what the the left just doesn't understand. I shouldn't say the left understands this.
The average Democrat doesn't understand. They think because the average Democrat, I think, is still kind of thinking, well, you know, I mean, I don't like all of that, but I want to be tolerant.
be tolerant there is no tolerance with this there's none and this should show you there is no reason to force these parents or force these kids to go against their parents teaching other than you will participate you will comply that's all it is yeah i love to one of their outs on this from the left is basically to say look if you want if you don't want your kids to learn this stuff then you should homeschool or uh put your kids in christian schools now of course it's it's actually christians jews and muslims one of the lead um defendants here is a muslim actually doesn't is trying to pull their kids out of this um and they have uh which is a fascinating argument from the left considering how hard they fought against school choice all this time i mean they have tried to prevent it they've tried to prevent the rights for you to educate your own kids and the they're trying to force you to pay for that education not not once, but twice. That's their answer.
Like if you don't want to learn what we're teaching you, then you get to pay twice as much for an education. You're going to get outside of these walls.
I will tell you that I talked to some people over the last couple of days up here, someone with the Department of Education, and they are thrilled to dismantle that thing. They are very, very excited to dismantle the Department of Education.
They're on the inside and they're like, it's freaking them out. And it is we're shutting this thing down.
And it couldn't be more exhilarating, quite honestly. I mean, tell me what education has done look at how they are they're taking on um private schools and they're saying you don't have a right to private education or you have a right but we're not gonna we're not gonna give you any vouchers we're not gonna spend any and look at what we're spending money on a system that is getting worse and worse and worse and we're're trapping our children into slavery.
If your kids can't read, I mean, go back to the 1800s. Do you know that it was, I believe it was the death penalty to teach someone, a slave, how to read? Did you know that? it was a crime of the highest order to teach a slave to read.
Why? Because if they can read, they can think. If they can think, they're no longer going to be a slave.
That's why. So this progressive, these people have hated, have hated the African-American forever.

It's the same people that started the Klan.

It's the progressive movement that tried to wipe out every black with Planned Parenthood,

and they're still doing it and getting away with it.

Is there a reason why all of the abortion clinics happen to fall in the black zip codes?

Is there a reason that that's where most of them are gee i don't know they're still doing it they were the ones that were over in germany telling you how to get rid of the jews yes that was an american thing not a german thing that was us my gosh these people have hated and hated and hated. And then the guy, Johnson, who stopped the civil rights movement, he stopped the Civil Rights Act in 1959.
He was the guy who stopped it. Then just four or five years later, he signs it in and he's proud to do it.
And then he signs the, uh, the, uh, the, uh, great, what do you call it? The great society bills. So we have a great society that's going to help the black man.
And what does it do? It tears their families apart. It drives them further into poverty.
It, it miseducates their children. So they're just nincompoops.
And then by the way, white people are nincompoops as well because we get the same damn education. Who is this hurt? This has hurt the black man more than the white man.
And these people, they still get away with it. Now, ask yourself a question.
if if you're paying taxes and this is country, why the hell can't you say, I'm not educating my kid there and I'm not paying you for that education because I think that education is evil. I think that education is so evil because look what it's doing to our kids.
It's teaching them that they should be slaves. it's not teaching them how to think.
It's teaching them what you want them to think. No, not going to do it anymore.

So on my way to the White House here in a couple of hours, I'm going to be with the president today. I'd love to hear what you are interested in.
I'd love to ask a few questions that are directed by you. I've been working on these questions for the president here for the last week, but I'd love to hear from you.
888-727-BECK. What is it that

you are most interested in hearing asked of the president? It's so interesting asking the president questions because I remember I was in the Oval Office with George W. Bush and he was he was not happy and I had questioned, you know, what is happening in the war, Mr.
President? And I had just got on the air, and I don't remember what I said to piss him off, but I said something. And I said, that's not the way the president behaves.
And so he calls me in the office, and I'm sitting there, and he says, you know, a lot of people think they know exactly how it is like to be the president. They have no idea what it's like to be the president of the United States.
You don't know what I'm dealing with. And, and in some ways it was true.
I mean, it's no excuse. You have to be better at it than anybody else, but the president can't answer certain things.
Like I, I really, I really want to know, can this be saved?

Can this be saved? Because we are looking at such economic, we're looking into the abyss, into the abyss. And, and I don't think the American people really understand that.
and it's going to take all of us understanding it and then choosing, okay, I'll take the hard road. I'll take the hard medicine now.
Used to be able, in the old days, you know, FDR could get on and say, look, this is going to be hard. This is going to be a schlog, but I'll take it on for my generation so our children don't have to deal with it.
I'm not sure that people are, I think they're willing to do it, but there will always be somebody on the outside that says, that's not necessary. You don't have to, you don't have to do that.
You can do it all. You could have it all.
No, no, no, no, no. You don't understand.
We'll put your social security over here in a lockbox and people will want to believe the easy road. So I've been wrestling with questions on, you know, how to make it easy for the president to tell the real truth on the economy, which I think he does, but I don't think enough people hear it.
That, as he says, it's going to be a bumpy ride. Yeah, it's going to be a lot more than a bumpy ride.
It's going to be a tough, tough schlog, but we have to do it. This interview, by the way, will air tonight, 9 p.m.

Yeah, yeah. It's not like you're dealing with Joe Biden anymore.
No. Yeah.
He's just going to let it ride. Let's see what he says.
You know, I have a lot of things to talk about. Like one thing that I would like to see, you know, that I don't I don't see anybody talking about.

You know, the president is changing the economy. He is changing.
He's he's getting away from this World War Two nightmare that might have been right for 1948. but it's certainly not right for today, where we were taking care of Europe, we were giving them all kinds of special breaks, we were paying for their defense, yada, yada, yada, yada.
Instead, now America needs to take care of herself, and we all need to be self sufficient. Well, you know, we're talking about AI a lot, but what people are not talking about are something that Eric Schmidt came to the White House, sorry, to the Capitol Hill and testified a couple of days ago about the power usage.
We have a significant problem with power. Now, I want you to understand, everyone will tell you we cannot lose the race for ai have you heard anyone say anything other than that stew no anyone who talks about it says we can't just let china or someone else win it it's 100 universal we must must uh win okay so where are we get all the power? Here's what Eric said.
Many people project demand for our industry will go from 3%, 3% of total energy production right now. We're at 3% for all of our server farms and everything else for Silicon Valley.
Uses 3%. He says it's going to go from 3% to 99% of all energy usage in the next three years, an additional 29 gigawatts by 2027 and 67 more gigawatts by 2030.
He is now saying that we have to build hundreds of nuclear power plants. He said there are some plants that they will require, most plants will require one nuclear power plant per server farm.
Some of them may require up to three nuclear power plants per server farm.

So this is really good in one way, because we will have the electricity that we need.

Assuming we start to build these things quickly. I mean, what's going to happen,

Stu? It takes 25 years to build a nuclear power plant. How is it we are expected at all to compete? We have dismantled our coal fire plants all over the country.
We are still not digging up coal and fuel as much as we need to. We need to be open and open valves on absolutely everything.
That's something that Eric Schmidt said yesterday, too. Now, remember, this is Silicon Valley guy.
I'm sure he was green, green, green for a long time. But now he's saying we need absolutely every source of energy because we are going to need 99 percent by 2027.
2027. What do you think your power price is going to be? What do you think about rolling blackouts and brownouts? We have got to be, and this would create so many jobs, so many jobs, good paying jobs, going out and building all these nuclear power plants.
Is this an opportunity? Will we do it for Trump and the Trump administration? I mean, because it feels also like talking about positives going on offense rather than being on defense. There's been a lot of defense talk lately and going on offense and saying, hey, we can be the best place for your company to exist because we're going to be the only place on earth that has the power it needs yep yep the only other country that is doing it is china and they're building them like crazy this is something that we have donald trump um could surpass fdr in power generation remember most people in 1919 in Woodrow Wilson, I think 1% of the population had a refrigerator.
By 1930, I think that number was like 80% had refrigeration. When FDR came in, the only places it didn't have stuff was there was no electricity in these small little rural towns.
So he went and he started building power plants and dams and everything else to generate all the power and then started laying power lines. This is something that Donald Trump could do.
And it is time. I mean, our grid hasn't really been updated since FDR.
We're still using the same stuff. And, you know, a lot of it is just out so outdated, and so bad.
Our grid is so incredibly unstable, and not built for what's coming next. and I just don't know how he's going to get it done but he this is a big win for him big win for him you know you know how many jobs would be created if we introduced and said we have to build them in the next three years it would be enormous enormous and exciting yeah yeah exciting i mean you know look having power is the basis of civilization like this is not a it's not a small little thing and you know it really is uh one of the foundational elements you need for a modern civilization and we sit here and we we talk about all the things we can't do, all the natural resources that we have, we can't utilize, all the things that we need to stop, right? We need to stop making gas-powered cars.
We need to stop getting our own coal and using it. We need to stop building nuclear plants.
This is a way of saying, no, we're on offense. We're America.
You know, the left is trying to right now, they're in the middle of a rebrand. And one of their, you know, as we talked about last hour, they're still seemingly stuck in a lot of these crazy woke things that burned them last time.
Hopefully they stick with those forever. But one of the proposals being floated around on the left is this idea of abundance.
That's the name of the book that kind of lays these concepts out. And it's an idea of trying to take away what the right has always had, which is this idea of saying, hey, we're looking to grow.
We want better things. We want the Americans to have a better, more fruitful, more wealthy, more, you know, having more.
And we'll decide what we want to do when we have more. And the left was always saying, hey, no, we need to restrict.
We need to calm that down. You don't need all this.
You don't need the bigger house. You don't need the bigger car.
And that's not the fundamental number one thing we should care about. But it was always there for us to say, hey, all these shelves are stocked.
Everything you need is right there.

You make the decisions on what you want.

You'll make the decisions and prioritize what you're going to spend your money on and what you're going to spend your time on. And the left is trying to take that back right now.
They're seeing an opportunity because of a lot of people on the right who are saying, no, actually, maybe we shouldn't have those things available. Maybe you don't need them.
and I'm nervous

if they decide to go down this road

there is a real vulnerability

to this those things available maybe you don't need them and i i'm nervous if they decide to go down this road there is a real vulnerability to the conservative movement if the left takes that away from us and they want to state it again more succinctly what your concern again my concern is and this is a real thing being talked about on the left in the in sort of their higher level academic circles is the approach to say to take away that i don't know it was a i would say pretty consistent with with that reagan optimism right the shining city on the hill the idea that we can do it we can do it every we can accomplish all these incredible things not through government, but through you. You can do it.
We'll have all these things. And you should expect from your country an abundance, not scarcity.
I'm trying to figure out where are you seeing that on the left? I mean, there's a major bestseller that just came out called Abundance. That was the that and it was from the left.
It from two guys on the left and i don't know that they'll win i mean but you know ezra klein and derrick thompson they're pretty well known uh it's really hard to that's really hard to sell i mean i agree barack obama i know look at barack obama he's got how many houses three where he's building a seawall around one of his houses where you can't build seawalls in Hawaii. But he's building a seawall around one of them.
That's his part time house. His other part time houses in Nantucket, one foot above sea level.
One. Count them.
One foot above sea level. And he's got a third house someplace else.
I think it's here in washington and he's always talking about hey you know there's there comes a time when enough is enough and you have too much when is that barack because you're telling us that we shouldn't have an suv you've got three houses see this whole abundance thing has never been aimed at them it's always been aimed at us. They believe in abundance, but only for the right people.
The right people get it. And that is the biggest difference in abundance is they've been saying that we all have to, you know, pinch back, but they don't actually mean it.
You know, at least at least the Republicans are like, yeah uh i'm corrupt as hell and making all kinds of money on the side but you can too you know i mean it's just crazy yeah no i agree i think look they've never actually believed any of these things right but like what was their approach for forever we've heard the approach of hey your tvs are too big your cars they're too they have too much of what you need the suvs are too large your homes are too large you don't need that air conditioning you should turn it to 72 degrees now i can bet you at neither martha's vineyard or in hawaii barack obama never had his house set to some uncomfortable temperature he didn't like well but, he might have because he's right on the ocean and you get that lovely ocean breeze that most of us don't get. That's true.
That's true. But I mean, that was it was always something they tried to implement on the people.
Right. It was always we get what we want, but you need to sacrifice for the greater good.
And that's that's a thing that just doesn't connect exactly with the American people, not because they're not charitable, because they are. They want to do good things for other people.
They will come together and accomplish incredible things, which they have done. But it was always this idea that you would be able to, it was part of the American deal, right? We do these things.
We work hard. Maybe we work harder.
Maybe we work more hours. Maybe we maybe we put up with more crap.
But with the idea that we can shape our own future, the left is trying to take that messaging back. Now, I'm with you in that I am not confident that viewpoint will win out on the left because there's a bunch of insane people.
but it is a vulnerability of the right if we go down this road of trying to encourage the same type of scarcity talk that the left has been engaging in. Okay.
Okay. So let's take that.
Next hour, I want to tell you a story that fits right in here on what the leftists are doing now in San Francisco, because it's very similar to what you're talking about. And this morning when I read it, I'm like, that'll never work.
But maybe you're right. Maybe it will.
I don't know. But it's insane.
We'll talk about that and so much more coming up. Don't forget President Trump, an interview at the White House tonight at nine with President Trump and I.

I'm going to spend another hour with you, and then I've got to get to the White House to interview the president. And I'm looking forward to that.
Love to hear your comments. We polled our audience over the last few days and been asking people, you know, what are you most interested in? And most people are interested in Doge.
That seems to be the hot button with this audience. So I'm going to be talking to him about Doge in particular.
Yesterday, it was announced that it looks like Elon Musk is going to be reducing his time in Washington on Doge next month. And what does that mean? And is he happy with the amount that has been cut? You know, they've really dramatically reduced the amounts of cuts that they're looking for.
And I I find that a little sad, quite honestly, but I'm not sure why that is happening. Is, you know, is he getting pushback from the agencies? Is he getting pushback from Congress? Where is he getting this pushback from? And is he going to just keep plowing through it? What happens when Elon Musk leaves? We'll talk to him about that.
Let me go to, is it Renee in Texas or Renee? Renee. Hi, Renee.
What's up? Hi. Tariffs are killing my small business.
And it's not even the tariff amounts. It's the way that they were implemented very suddenly and very haphazardly.
The shipping companies were not prepared for what was coming. Um, I had shipments in the air.
I, I import most of my goods for my small business specialty martial arts company, uh, from Hungary and from Poland and the, the, And UPS and FedEx, they started slapping steel tariffs on shipments that contain zero steel because it's coded as a sporting good. And when I asked, hey, why are y'all doing that? They said, well, we didn't know what was in there.
And so to be safe, they coded it as steel. So I'm paying $5,000 in customs for a package that normally would have cost me $600 to $800 in tariffs or customs.
And when I said, can I get that back? They said, well, you have to file a claim with customs and it may be four to six weeks to get that back. I'm currently out about $30,000.
I will ask the president about this because there's a lot of tariff talk

that i i want to get to today um i put that down i am going to put it on my list of things to talk

talk to him about i feel for you out how they can help you. Uh, you know, if you are traveling and you are sick, you have your Jace Medical case with you.

And I'd love to hear from you. 888-727-BECK.
Is there anything in particular that you think that you really want an answer to? A lot of people are responding. There's two things, the tariffs and how they're affecting small businesses.
And I will get into that with the president. And the other is Elon Musk and Doge.
Questions on Doge. And the big story that was out yesterday was that Elon Musk is going to be leaving next month.
What does that mean for Doge? Where do we go from here on that? More in just a second. First, let me tell you about Rough Greens.
Have you ever noticed how your dog just knows things? You know, when you're leaving, when you're coming back, you know, somehow he always knows that you've opened a bag of food, even from three rows, rooms away, he can, they're tuned in, they're always aware. But when it comes to their own health, they have to count on you to pay attention.

Hello, Stu.

Welcome to the program.

Thanks, Glenn.

Big day today.

Yeah, big day.

We've got, of course, an interview with the President of the United States,

going to be airing tonight on Blaze TV.

BlazeTV.com slash Glenn, by the way, promo code Glenn,

if you'd like to join Blazeze TV and save 20 bucks,

do you have kind of a,

an approach here at this point?

Do you know what you're going to ask him?

No.

Um,

I mean,

I do,

I've got pages and pages of questions and notes.

Um,

but now I have to,

you know,

it's going to take me an hour or two just to whittle it down to,

uh,

the questions I think I can get in.

You know, I've got, I don't know, 45 minutes or an hour with the president.

And that's from the moment he walks in to the moment he leaves.

So you don't have a lot of time.

And, you know, every every single word counts.

I know I'm going to start with this.

I asked just for a list of the things that he accomplished in the first 100 days.

And we got to page 89.

I'll see you next time. uh i know i'm gonna start with this i asked just for a list of the things that he accomplished in the first 100 days and we got to page 89 i'll have all of them tonight this is the first 80 i think 89 days look at that that's a lot that's just a list of the accomplishments of the first 89 days uh that's what would you say inches thick? I mean, this guy has made more progress than any other president or many presidents combined in the first 100 days.
Nobody's done what he's done. But, you know, one of the things, and I don't know how I'm going to, because I can't ask him directly, so I kind of try to ask him several questions all the way through.
That'll kind of give you a sense of.

Are we looking for a reprieve?

Is that where we're going to get a four year reprieve?

If the economy doesn't turn around fast enough, because I believe the president can turn it around.

But if it doesn't turn it around fast enough,

or if people don't understand that he is changing the entire structure of the world, and he's trying to do it in two years, really, we're going to be left with a reprieve and not a fundamental change. And does he think that's really possible, especially without Congress? I mean, I'm going to rail on Congress.
I don't know if he'll join me on that, but I really want to know why he isn't pounding Congress into the dirt. I mean, Congress is, they're not helpful at all.
And no matter what anybody says, I've talked to enough people just the last few days here to tell you that anybody who tells you that the Senate and the House leadership is on the president's side. They have they don't know their butt from their elbow.
They have no idea what they're talking about. They are not on his side.
They are not working with him. And that's obvious.
I mean, they should be passing. You know, I know this is going to be, you know, he said, I'm going to pass a the largest tax cut.

Well, he's not. He's what the Congress is doing is he's actually he's thwarting the largest tax increase in American history that would come next year.
Well, the country needs a tax cut, a tax plan that will actually encourage spending spending on business encourage you know spending on um on creating jobs i also want to talk to him about energy i mean what do you what do you think stew what are the questions you want to know i think the economy is a big one and how he's going to kind of go forward with that we We talked about having that sort of positive agenda. I think that would be helpful.
It seems like the markets are liking that today. And there's a little bit of a maybe a little bit of an approach change over the past couple of days.
And that seems to be helping quite a bit. I think that's a big one.
I think certainly energy is a big one. Department of Education is another one.
Wait, wait, wait. Go back to the go back to the positive.
What do you mean by that? Like we talked about energy going in and saying, look, I'm going to build all these nuclear power plants in the next three years because testimony on the Hill yesterday, day before yesterday from the president of former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, was pretty clear. We are going to right now, the cloud services, if you will, the compute power for all of the big, you know, computer cloud servers, they require currently 3% of all of the electricity that is used in the United States.
3%. In three years, they will require 99% of our energy.
Well, there's no way that can happen without us having blackouts and brownouts and, you know, the rest of the country just starving itself from electricity. That'll just collapse everything.
So a positive way to deal with this is to say, I am going to do the biggest energy push ever in American history. And he's already done it for oil and coal.
Now he just needs to say, I'm cutting the red tape. I'm going to make sure that they're safe, but there's new technology now

with nuclear power plants, and we're going to drop them in city after city after city where these cloud servers are going to be. Because if Eric Schmidt is right, and I believe he is, each one of these cloud servers by 2030 will need a nuclear, full-size nuclear power plant themselves that's incredible it's incomprehensible but yeah as you point out instead of saying uh like an alternate approach to that would be hey we need to stop these ai companies from doing this we need to make sure that they are not taking over that's the i would say what the left wouldn't typically do in a situation like this they would try to to stop the companies from growing.
They would try to stop them from innovating. They would say you need to do more with less.
And our I think the conservative argument there is to say, hey, we're going to give you the tools that you need. We're going to make it easy for these companies to build nuclear power plants in a safe way, of course.
But what the reliable energy that can that can fuel these things would be great. I think the same thing, you know, I think if you look at Trump's economic plan, he wants to bring, let's say, manufacturing back to the United States.
Well, there's a couple of ways that you can do that. And both of them are completely consistent with what Trump wants to do.
One of them is obviously tariffs. That's what has had almost all the attention.
I think there's a reason why the media focuses on that i think they they they rather talk about the tariffs um because they're not as popular the other side of it is incentivizing companies to come here it's cutting regulation it's cutting taxes it's making the united states into the greatest place to to do business people will want to come here and the democrats have worked really hard to take that impression away from the world over the past 20 years. And Trump, I think, in his first term, did a good job at encouraging that sort of development here.
I think it went pretty well with the economy. And I think like that just it's just a I think he believes that still.
He just it hasn't been the focus as much of the messaging messaging and i think that could help this is the problem and i'm gonna try to get him to explain this i i can't ask him i don't think i can ask him directly because the president of you say look how much trouble we in um you know and is this fixable of course he's gonna say yeah it's fixable. But he he needs to articulate or somebody needs to articulate how close to the edge of the abyss we are.

I mean, I, you know, Stu, you know, I have I've talked about this economic stuff over and over again. I had a conversation with somebody who I can't say who, but they believe me, they absolutely know what's happening with our dollar and the economy and everything else.
Okay. Um, an official in the government that that's, you know, that's pretty much what they do.
And I said, look, I am trying to get my arms around this because i'm i'm thinking about you know why he called it liberation day uh and i think it's because he's changing the whole system you know that was set up after world war ii and yada yada yada and i said and i don't think people understand that if we if he fails this is it this is our last chance to save america that that we're over and this individual put their hand on my shoulder and said no listen we are over so he said the same thing i did he just wanted to make sure that i understood exactly what i was saying and uh i found that to be a little terrifying and i don't think people truly understand this is it this is it if if you if you want to have a country left we're going to go and experience tremendous pain i mean ronald reagan talked about this um you know there's going to come a time when none of the choices are good and everybody wants to eat around the edges and not take the whole pie you have to have the whole pie you're gonna you can't eat around the edges anymore you've got to fix the entire thing uh and that is going to be really painful and dangerous and i i don't know if i can get him to talk about that i mean how would you ask him is that do you think that's the way he sees it do you think he because it does seem like with like the types of maneuvers he's made when it comes to foreign trade for example he really does see not just something we need to tweak right like an absolute monumental crisis right yeah so do you know because that that is a a big change and i think slightly different than maybe the perception was going in and that's you know something he's going to have to kind of deal with with the american people and it's why maybe you know he's having issues with uh know, some of the independents losing support among independents.

I don't think he's going to see, you know, I don't think that's the way he runs his operation.

I don't think he looks at it and says, OK, well, this isn't polling well right now.

So I don't want to do it.

No, he doesn't.

I think he looks at it.

He sees himself and thank God he sees himself as if I don't do it. no one will.
And I think that's true. I don't know of any.
Donald Trump is completely unique. You know, he's been forged in the fire where he wasn't in 2016.
He is now. I mean, what are you going to do to him? You try to throw him in jail You try to throw his family in jail You try to destroy his business

His where he wasn't in 2016. He is now.
I mean, what are you going to do to him? You try to throw him in jail. He tried to throw his family in jail.
You tried to destroy his

business, his reputation. They've called him every name under the sun.
They tried to kill him not

once, but twice. I mean, what are you going to do to this guy? He doesn't care.
And so I really

believe that this is so far beyond him. He knows, look, I'm here at this time for a reason, and it's to save the country in the way I believe it needs to be saved.

And so it is a complete departure from the Great Reset, but it is a great reset.

The world has been shaping us for this reset.

I've been talking about this since 2008.

They shaped us for this reset i've been talking about this since 2008 they they shaped us for this reset to where they would they would manage the decline to a certain point and then it would kind of fall apart and then collapse into this new system that they had built well he's dismantling that at the same time trying to put the system back into place that they had taken apart it's i mean it's it's if he can pull this off it's going to be a miracle we'll be the first people in the history of the world to pull this off um and uh it's i mean it's an interesting time to be alive going to be interesting to see how well this works out all right more in just a second standby first our sponsor this half hour is the burner launcher you know I'm sorry Patriot Mobile okay Patriot Mobile let me tell you about Patriot Mobile there's only one time you'll ever hear me say I'm pro-choice, and that's when it comes to, you know, the economy. Wireless providers.

They take your money, then they turn around and fund every radical cause you can ever think of. you know you want to be pro-lifeedom, pro-faith? Too bad.
Your phone bill money is out there marching in the streets in the opposite direction. That's why there's Patriot Mobile.
It's America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. They offer the same nationwide coverage that you're used to on the same cell towers, but with a company that supports free speech, religious liberty, the sanctity of life, and our veterans and first responders.

Now, who would have thunk it? You know, every time he comes to town, prostitutes, you know, go through the roof because they're shipped in from all over the world.
But no, I'm sure it's a very pro woman. You know, he really cares.
He really cares deeply. But apparently he's in trouble for sexual harassment and and also, you know, some problems with some funds.
Apparently he used some funds to buy big houses, but it's no big deal. Right.
I mean, he can get away with it. He's Klaus Schwab.
I hate these people so much. I hate these people so much i hate these people so much i mean god the the the hypocrisy of these people just kills me kills me that's one of the one of the other things i want to ask him about is uh is the great reset and how i mean six years ago you remember when we started talking about the great reset and everybody said that's good and now look at it everybody knows about dei and crt and everything else everything they said you have the court system now defending and saying you can't cut that wait a minute i thought it was a conspiracy theory i'm just cutting conspiracies isn't that what you want it's incredible yeah i also want to know is he going to stand up to the courts yeah what does that mean exactly too i i don't i don't know obviously there's right now we have you know six supreme court justices that were uh that were actually named by republicans right three of them by president trump himself.
What does that mean as far as I know that they took a stance against him, for example, deporting certain people. And they don't...
I can't believe it. That sort of battle is going to be fascinating.
These people, when we were saying we should vet people, when they're coming in, ask them, hey, here's an idea. COVID.
Can we see if they've had their vaccine? No, you can't do that. Now, when we're trying to ship them back home, oh, we've got to have a sit down with them.
We have to have a formal interview before we get rid of them. We have to really sit down and talk to them.
No problem bringing them in. None.
They're riddled with diseasedled with disease not a problem uh hang on just a second i think you left some of your fingers behind they just fell off you don't just take those with you as you enter the united states no problem coming in all kinds of problems leaving well does that make sense a lot of this has to do with your hatred of maryland fathers um you have always been against people who are just fathers in maryland and i don't know i was a father in maryland for a while my my daughter was born in maryland and i was i was the dad so i was a maryland father wow so you can't be deported that's apparently the rule i will say did you see the the uh explanation i love this of the domestic violence thing where like you know she filed a restraining order against her yeah against him for domestic violence everyone's like hey white beat his wife she says now no no no no that's not true she uh she did so she filed a domestic violence restraining order against her husband quote in case things escalated end quote oh that happened tanya did that to me last week you know she's like i need a restraining order i think he might kill me i mean he's not threatening to kill me but in case he does this is glenn beck gosh hysterical all right i'm a big second amendment guy i believe in your right to defend yourself but i mean i have to admit there are situations when a fire firearm is not the best. Say you're driving to work, listen to this program, full volume, windows down, and all of a sudden you're stopped at dead traffic and some crazy blue haired lady, you don't even know that she was, she was even in the vicinity.
She comes up and just starting your start hitting your hood with a, with a baseball bat. Now, Hey lady, I don't think you need to, no, I know exactly what I'm, and she's just beating with a baseball.
You know, that might, you don't think you need to no i know exactly what i mean she's just beating with a baseball you know that might you don't want to shoot her um but uh you got to stop her right the burner launcher that's where it comes in looks like a firearm feels like one but it's non-lethal it'll fire kinetic projectiles or tear gas tear gas rounds that'll stop somebody in their tracks you know without ending their So little old lady, she'll be crying for about 45 minutes and not being able to see. But she won't be beating your hood with a baseball bat anymore.
Just in time for cops. You know, if you're not in a blue city, just in time for cops to get there and haul her away.

I need to spend more time in Washington, D.C. I've learned so much in the last couple of days.
Being able to meet with so many people. And then, you know, in the off times, a couple of days ago, I went to the American Art Museum, Smithsonian's American Portraiture or something.
What a dump that place is. My gosh.
My gosh, what a dump. And so woke.
I can't take it. I just can't take it.
And I don't know. I think I'll talk to the president in the off air on that because I don't think anybody else cares.
But he might. It's just a nightmare.
Just a nightmare. By the way, thanks to Steve Bannon.
I was on Steve Bannon's show on Monday. When did that air? Yesterday? Yeah, it aired yesterday.
It went in Monday to do his show, and he aired it yesterday. Interesting.
Really, really interesting. We disagree on things, but he also agrees with me that we're in trouble economically where people need to understand where we are in the grand scheme of things and there is a serious mental illness problem happening on the streets of washington dc i mean it when you get into the capitol, it's even worse.
But on the streets, it is a serious mental illness there. I mean, I've never seen anything like it.
My wife has been with me this week, and she she said that I've only heard her say this once. She said it about 10 years ago in San Francisco.
We went and people were taking a dump in the street, you know, right as we're walking.

And it was just very dangerous feeling. And it was a nice section of San Francisco.
And it doesn't exist anymore. But at that time, there still was a nice section of San Francisco.
And she said, I'll never come to this city again. She said, I would never walk alone in this city.
And I said, well, I'd be with you. And she's like, nah, walking with you is like walking alone.
Um, and, uh, it's a, we're walking down the streets of Washington DC. And this guy starts to, uh, circle us on a bike and he's gotta be about 30 years old.
Uh, and he just, he starts circling us, you know, riding his bike around us as we're walking. And he's like, I'm going to kill me some white people today.
I'm killing white people today. And I'm like, I know I hate those white people, huh? And he just kept circling us and, you know, could be you.
Could be you. And he drives around.
He's just like staring at me. Could be you today.
You never know. And I thought that's either mental.
It is absolutely mental illness or that is a societal thing that has caused this guy to think that that's totally cool to do that. But it is it's it's really bad.
But the good news is the Democrats are here for you. There is a story in Politico that I absolutely love.
Here's the headline, and I quote, there's a reckoning to be had. San Francisco Dems move to push the National Party to the center.
Now, that's all you need to know. I mean, the gutter in which the Democrats find themselves now, if the Democrats from San Francisco is leading, they're the ones leading the way, it's how much trouble they're in.

The story says, quote, they are attempting to lead by a national conversation around what it takes for Democrats to win by rejecting what they deride as performative politics and virtue signaling and embracing pragmatism and

quality of life issues. Really? This is rich.
Democrats from the capital of left-wing lunacy

now are claiming they want to drag their party back to the middle. And in this story from Politico,

they say they're now interested, get this, on fully staffing police departments, erasing the local regulations that drive up the cost of building new housing, and focusing on public schools and closing the learning gaps for black and Hispanic students in math and reading.

Now this is wild

because I seem to remember that and closing the learning gaps for black and Hispanic students in math and reading.

Now this is wild because I seem to remember that these are exactly the same people that just did the opposite.

They're the ones shouting in the streets to defund the police, burning buildings down,

yanking our founding father's name off of school buildings,

passing Gaza-like resolutions like they're running the UN,

turning our cities into giant performance art galleries,

of the off of school buildings, passing Gaza-like resolutions like they're running the UN, turning our cities into giant performance art galleries of needles and poop. These are the ones, and now they're like, you know what, maybe we should have a few more cops, and we should make sure our kids can read again and do math.
Really? So when you were saying the defunding the all? Were you joking about that? Or are you just joking about the math and other subjects being racist? Because I'm according to the political story. They're also calling for imposing potential aid age limits on elected officials.
Why he's sharp as attack. No, no, no.
He was sharp as attack. There was nothing nothing to see there did you see the elizabeth warren uh interview she did with some that oh my gosh so good we talked about it yesterday it is that was one of the most revealing things i've ever seen i mean she actually laughs she can't stop herself from laughing at the concept that he was fine even though she said it publicly over and over and over again.
Play that, Sarah. Do you regret saying that President Biden had a mental acuity? He had a sharpness to him.
You said that up until July of last year. I said what I believe to be true.
And you think he was as sharp as you? I said I had not seen decline. And I hadn't at that point.
You did not see any decline from 2024 Joe Biden to 2021 Joe Biden? Not when I said that. Not when I said that.
The thing is, he, look. Look.
He was sharp. He was on his feet.
I saw him. Live event, I had meetings with him a couple of times.

Senator, on his feet is not praise.

He can speak in sentences, is not praise.

All right, fair enough. Fair enough.

Mm-hmm.

Look, it is, the question is... Whatever a politician says, look now? Okay.
Yeah. I mean, it's a great, it's a great clip.
He does a great job interviewing her. He does.
As well, pushing her on this because it's so obvious and she's, it's so comical that she can't even keep a straight face. We use that term a lot can't keep a straight face that's a great example of it she legitimately multiple times laughs at her own public statements like it's okay like it's absolutely okay and we're all in this joke together we all get it he's sharp as a tack the guy is a Roomba stuck in the corner of the room man just

pounding into the I mean for the love of Pete now they're saying you know we gotta have an age limit

for why weekend of Bernie strategy with the new Bernie is you know maybe suboptimal right now

this is crazy and I want to tell you that this is what you need to know about this

there is zero sincerity in this at all you have no reason to believe this is sincere from the Democratic Party at all. But just pretend for a second that it is sincere.
It would be enormous. It would be an enormous breakthrough.
The heavens would part. The angels would sing if they actually de-radicalized the Democratic Party.
But they have no intention to do that. No intention to do that.
Here's what's going on. San Francisco Democrats are calling their strategy new pragmatism.
What does that mean? In other words, you don't have any real principles, just a willingness to rebrand according to which way the wind is blowing so you can look like you just want to get things done. They're not sorry

for the clown show virtual signaling policies. Look how sad she is.
Look at how much remorse she has. She's laughing at how she lied about the guy who had the finger on the nuclear button.
Nobody should laugh at that. Nobody, nobody.
They are just terrified of losing again. Look, anytime a politician says, look, look, they're lying to you.
San Francisco wants to be the model for Democrats to win back union workers, immigrants, young people, voters they lost because they were too busy arguing that standardized tests are hate crimes good luck with that pivot guys good luck good luck you can't just i as a guy who has worked with chalkboards for a very long time you can't just wipe the chalkboard clean the whole country has seen your math and uh i'm sorry you have to scrub it clean and you're busy scrubbing but we all saw what you wrote on the chalkboard and none of this adds up doesn't make any sense whatsoever uh okay back in just a second first let me tell you about our sponsor it's american financing uh if you've looked at your credit card statement and think wow okay all right who stole my identity and then paid for groceries gas and the electric bill yeah no that was you unfortunately because that's the only one that's paying for those things seems to be you congratulations you are paying now 20 interest just to stay alive this has got to.

I guess they're more worried about the meaning of the word female than the word work.

Glenn Beck will be right back. welcome to the glenbeck program i was on with steve bannon uh yesterday i recorded it on monday and and uh here's a little bit of that i wonder why he hasn't

taken congress to the woodshed the only chance we have is cut our regulation dramatically pass the reins act okay pass the reins act um pass that cut the regulation but at least by half then give unleash the animalleash the animal spirits. Yes.
Give me 15, 15, 15 in taxes. 15% capital gains, 15% for the average person.
Make it 17, 17, 17. I don't care.
But that incentivizes the entrepreneur. I can start my own business.
70% of all jobs begin with small businesses. We've got to incentivize those people.
And that's Congress. And they're sitting around like they did after they won the Tea Party.
They're going to be responsible for losing this whole thing. They've got to move.
What do you say about the investigations, the deep state, everything we know about Brennan? I'm pissed. Okay, talk about that.
We only got a couple minutes. Our audience, one thing they get furious about is- I'm pissed.
And Pam and Cash are as good as you get. What's the problem? Your audience the same way, they're steamed.
Oh, yeah. You know, you can do an awful lot of stuff, but until you start putting bad guys in jail, I don't believe you.
I don't believe you. And you know a sense of urgency.
It's not like we have this forever. No.
I mean, if Hakeem Jeffries wins in 18 months, which is not a side of the possibility of the race to we're done, they're going to impeach Trump. We're done.
So where where is the DOJ? OK, I know cash quite well. I believe cash.
I don't know Pam. Okay.
I'm not throwing dispersions on her, but something's not right. Why aren't you unleashing? Is it the deep state has them by the throat? What is it? But it's got to be solved.
You, you have no, is that a message that you think you're, I don't want to get into your private conversation with the president, but is that something you would highlight? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
You think there needs to be a sense of urgency about this? What does any of it mean? Why is Congress taking so much time off right now? Traditional two weeks of vacations or two weeks back to the constitution where they don't have town halls? I don't know. I mean, it is— Because collectively but as a body they're horrible they're absolutely horrible um i i honestly steve i can't tell you i'm i am at a loss for doj and i'm at a loss for congress and i'm at a loss on donald trump man why aren't you using the bully pulpit to go after your own here?

Eat them.

Eat them.

Tell them.

Oh, we're watching you.

The whole country is watching you.

Get to work.

Do these things now.

Have you seen the clock on the wall and the numbers spinning?

We're burning daylight.

Burning daylight.

It was an interesting conversation. Actually, as I'm watching this, I forgot we had had this conversation.
And as I'm watching this, I realize I have an answer now, I think, in talking to more people that are in and around the administration, people that know, the one thing that, and it goes back to Congress, Congress is holding back the nominees. The Republicans are holding back the nominees that people like Pam Bondi and cash and everybody else need.
They have to go through Congress. And some of our some of our leadership on our side is like, you know, we passed all your people.
We got you got all of the people. But don't expect don't expect to get get everything through until maybe August or end of the year.
You can't go a year without those people. So it's my new understanding.
I'm going to ask the president tonight. But it's my new understanding that that is the real problem.
It's that Congress is not clearing and putting the people in that those people need around them to get the job done i hope that's not true but we'll see because i don't understand it i really don't understand it um so you have what an hour with the president yeah i'm i'm gonna take the uh you're gonna finish the show and i'm gonna go over to the white house i just have put it you know i don't know i'm still struggling struggling on how I'm going to frame everything. I think, you know, as I've been looking at all this this morning, I think I'm going to try to frame it under Liberation Day.
Because I think people need to understand how big this job is of what he's trying to do. And I think, I mean, if my theory is right, that he named it Liberation Day, because he's changing everything, the whole world order since World War Two, that leads us into, you know, everything that he's that he is doing and gives it a deeper understanding.
But I want to talk about the tariffs and the economy and Doge, jail for the bad guys, the courts, foreign affairs. I mean, we're going to cover it.

I'm going to cover as much as I can with the president.

And that'll be on Blaze TV tonight at 9 p.m. from the White House.

Tonight, 9 p.m., my interview with Donald Trump.

This is Glenn Beck. All right, let me talk about ammo squared here.
You've got car insurance, even if you're a good driver. You have health insurance, even when you're not sick.
Hopefully, you've got some ammo, even if you haven't needed it yet. But here's the thing.
Ammo isn't just something that you buy once and forget. It's a supply.
And like any supply, it can run low, usually at the worst possible time. That's where Ammo Squared comes in.
Think of it like a savings account, but for ammunition. You pick the calibers that you want, how much you want to spend each month, and they handle the rest.
They store this for you in a secure facility, or you can have it shipped to your door whenever you're ready. No more panic buying, no more empty shelves, no more I'll get around to it.
And you know, it's kind of genius. Just like food or water or power, if you wait until you need ammo to go buy it, it's probably already too late and probably too expensive.
That's why you want to go with AmmoSquared.com. AmmoSquared.com.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. It is Stu Bergeer here for you as Glenn goes his little jaunt to the White House.
For some reason, the President of the United States did not plan his schedule around our program today. It is wrong.
Jeff Fisher joins us as well. Of course, host of Chewing the Fat, the wonderful podcast hosted by Jeffy.
We'll get to him in just a couple of seconds. Almost sounded like you believed it.
I didn't. I didn't believe it, but I'm glad I was a little bit convincing.
First, let me tell you about the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. September 11th isn't just a day that we remember.
It's a day that's still, to this day, taking lives. We lost 2,977 souls on that morning.
Men, women, children. We lost heroes and first responders who ran toward the danger without a second thought.
But here's something that a lot of people don't know. More first responders have died from 9-11 related illnesses since that day than have died on it, which is really terrifying.
The legacy of sacrifice deserves to be honored, not just once a year, but regularly in every classroom across America. That's exactly what the Talented Towers Foundation is doing through the 9-11 Institute.
They're equipping K-12 teachers with powerful age-appropriate resources, full curriculum units, ready to teach scripted lessons, videos, and even first-hand survivor stories through the Discovering Heroes book series. They even built a traveling museum, the 9-11 mobile exhibit, where students walk through the day in the shoes of the firefighters who were there.
It's guided by the very men who lived it. To never forget, we must educate future generations, help our nation keep its vow.
Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers at T2T.org. It's T, the number two, T, dot org.
Jeffy, welcome. Good to see you, my man.
Stu, good to see you. How are you? Well, I'm doing well.
I mean, this is a big day for our own Glenn Beck. I mean, that's a big surprise.
He doesn't realize he's got his own show to do. Yeah, I know.
It is interesting. I just feel like, you know.

I would say, I am working on my own show, just not this one.

Yes, it's true.

He's going to be, by the way, able to see this interview unedited tonight.

They're going to put this on Glenn's TV show, Glenn TV.

Of course, part of your Blaze TV subscription, blazetv.com slash Glenn.

The promo code there is Glenn.

Of course, you also get Studos America, Chewing the Fat, a part of the podcast network, get all of it. And it's a great membership and it also helps support actual journalism, actual conservative thought.
You know, maybe some media coverage you could actually get something out of. It'll be nice.
I'll be interested to see this interview tonight with the president and Glenn. I know it's a different thing doing an interview on your show when President Trump's on the phone.
Yeah. As opposed to going to the White House and doing it there face to face.
On his ground. It's on his ground, right? Yeah.
And it's interesting because the president, he's got about an hour with the president. Glenn does.
And, you know, the president isn't one of those guys that sometimes you bring on a guest. You know this, Jeffy.
You bring on a guest and they answer in like half sentences. Wrap it up early.
And they're kind of boring and they're quick and they don't say anything interesting. And they're dumb after two sentences and they kind of let you go on to the next question.
That's not President Trump. That is not Donald Trump.
No. President Trump is going to give you – he's going to go.
You're going to start him off. He's going to go.
You've got to make a point to get to what you want to get to. Yeah, it's hard.
It is hard. It's a challenge with him because, you know, look, the guy, he's a talker.
He likes talking about this stuff. He cares about it quite a bit, and he'll just go.
Especially if you want to confront him on something. If he says something says something you're like well let's back up and think about this for a second yeah now you've wasted another not wasted but i mean there goes another 10 minutes right of the hour that you have you have to really be focused yeah and uh i wouldn't i don't know glenn i think can be up and down on that one sometimes he's very focused and gets to the stuff he wants to get to other times other times maybe not so much so we'll see what happens tonight i'm very interested to watch this you know glenn obviously goes uh into this wanting to ask about all the important stuff that's going on but you can only get to certain things and we'll see what he gets to uh tonight on the program again the show airs at was it 9 p.m eastern i can't remember i don't know it's on blaze tv blaze tv dot com slash glenn the promo code being glenn i make sure to check it out you'll save 20 bucks on the subscription if you go about it that way one thing i don't i don't know that he'll have a chance to get to is the new proposal from the fda to phase out dyes uh used in a bunch of foods this is the I better not be messing with my Skittles, too.
I'll tell you what, I don't care about all the other red dye, yellow dye, citrus dye. Don't mess with my Skittles.
No? No. You don't want your Skittles...
I will say, I'm not shocked to see you defending big food. And I'll be probably with you on this as well.
I mean, the red dye thing is something they've been trying to push for a while. You know, there have been a lot of calls for this to be banned for a long time.
The Biden administration did do this as well. They banned red dye number three.
One red dye. One red dye number three.
Now, these are dyes that are in all sorts of foods, though it's maybe a little overblown how many foods they're in. a of it has been you know some companies have just decided they didn't want to put this these guys in foods already but uh they say the fluorescent red of flaming hot cheetos are you a flaming hot cheetos guy jeffy not me neither i like the cheesy stuff i feel like the flaming hot stuff yeah they just abandon the cheese you want to give me a a spicy cheese flavored thing i'm in but what they're doing there is they're doing a lot of just just the spice without the cheese and i just you know that could go away that one's fine no uh they are the that they do say the brilliant teal of mountain dew baja blast which i do enjoy quite a bit and the colorful rainbow bow of skittles may soon be dimmed this is this is unacceptable the fda is phasing out the use of these uh they call petroleum-based synthetic dyes by the end of next year this is what they announced now it's interesting to see how they're doing this their approach is not as heavy-handed as i would say the left has engaged in over the years where they're just going out and actually banning it they seem to be indicating they're going to work with companies to do it now i have to come to the table and say look we we can't get rid of this because of this right there'll be i'm sure a lobbying effort and look the reason why these dyes are used is typically because they're less expensive than the alternatives um and also uh more vibrant yeah i guess right yeah that's the thing yeah they want they want to brighten especially like the citrus ones they talked about right well give me this i'll give you this example rfk jr uh how good look i'll be honest i'm not an rfk jr guy like marty mccari is another guy who's who's been out there talking about this i like him a lot uh big jay bodhacharya guy i like a lot of the people that that donald trump has chosen for his health health apparatus i really do like you know rfk jr not so much i will i will admit to you he uh was talking about how uh he he had this big thing when he was running for president against donald trump um when he was talking about fruitops and how Canadian Fruit Loops only have three ingredients and we have all these ingredients in our Fruit Loops.
Now, needless to say, that's not even remotely close to accurate. I mean, it's hard.
I would love to know which three ingredients you could form a Fruit Loop with because I don't know. There's just not a physical way to do it.
You can make fruit with three ingredients it's not even remotely close to true the only way to make fruit loops in three ingredients is if you actually use real fruit right okay if you use just that's what canada does no that is not what they do they do not have three ingredients they have basically i think the exact same amount it might be one or two less ingredients fewer ingredients but it's basically the exact same amount of ingredients but what they do that is different than us is they utilize different uh dyes uh for okay for their fruit loops so if you look at the fruit loops side by side canadian fruit loops u.s fruit loops i'm sorry there's no doubt which one you're taking you're taking the good old american fruit loops right they look better they look they're they pop right they've got those cool colors the bright blues and the bright bright reds and the bright yellows and then you have that kind of like boring like yeah yeah you know look and and of course we should point out cereals without these flavorings fruit loop type cereals are currently widely available in the united states if you choose to want your dull cereals they are available they've been available for forever they're available for a very long time. There's, you know, again, it's usually, I will say, a little bit more expensive.

Because the reason why they use the artificial dyes, first of all, they look better.

And they're more enticing to people.

And secondarily, they are cheaper, right?

If you go to Trader Joe's, you can find tons of cereals that are not flavored with artificial flavorings, but they're going to cost a lot more.

They're much more expensive when you take all these ingredients out. So that's why a lot of these big cereal companies utilize these dyes.
They're cheaper. And of course, they also look better.
But you can get the other ones if you want them now. to me as a person who wants less government interference rather than more i typically lean on the side of uh of wanting uh the options all be out there you should be able to choose what you want now i know what i will choose every single time which is the good old american petroleum based food.
That's what I want.

Absolutely.

But I open up my bag of Skittles.

If I don't have those vibrant colors staring back at me,

shining, ready to be eaten, I don't.

Right.

I don't want them.

I don't know why either,

because it doesn't really change the taste of them at all.

They all taste.

Everyone is different, Stu.

Yeah.

Fruit Loops.

By the way, did you know this?

I'm sure you did, Jeffy,

but did you know that every Fruit Loop,

no matter what the color, tastes the same? It's exactly the same. It tastes the same, which is interesting.
That's why on top of whatever they put in the dyes for Fruit Loops, you need a little bit more extra sugar on top of them. Right.
Just to brighten it up a little bit. You need to brighten it up a little bit.
That's not, again, healthy choice is not exactly your strong suit. So this is what they're going into now.
They say there's been an interesting, the studies on this, I will say, are not overwhelming. If you go back and look.
There's been very few, actually. There's been very few.
And what they've shown has been really mixed. I mean, there was a study a long time ago that, and this is the basis, again, this was the Biden administration getting rid of red number three okay now they tried to get rid of red number three they eventually did it they did it right before trump came into office and uh the the study said that certain rats can get cancer at with certain amounts of levels number three levels.
Yes. Yes.
Now, the levels, I mean, it's completely absurd. First of all, they gave 65 times the maximum dose to these rats.
And they gave them 65 times the maximum dose every day for 28 consecutive months. Wow.
Now, I don't know if there's any substance you could take at that level that would not cause cancer but maybe there's one i don't know what it would be uh you probably even without if you had 65 the amount of times of the amount of maximum uh the maximum dose of water every day for 28 months you'd probably be dead yeah so i don't know why that is an important study but that is what the what they did on by the way the study the author of the study which they use to take red number three off the market says it's actually safe so they took his study where he said it's safe and then use that to pull it off the market now one of the things they've studied over the years je Jeffy, is this concept of it causing ADHD. Yeah, yeah.
That was one of the California studies, right? That's probably, there's more basis to that one because they have found in about half the studies that they've looked at, they've seen some effect on some children when it comes to a measure of ADHD. And it's funny, I have a friend who is, you know, he's like our lovely Hillary, who does the four minute buzz here.
She was just busting on me because she's, you know, she likes the more natural approach. She's certainly more healthy than I am.
So we all know that. But, you know, I have a friend who's kind of like Hillary in that, you know, he's very like natural and likes to talk to me about however a chemical in our food is bad and we go back and forth about this and you know it was funny because this week he's telling me we have to pull off all these food coloring because of adhd last week he was telling me adhd didn't exist and i'm like wait a minute you were the one who was telling me last week that adhd was just a scam and then this week you're telling me we have to pull red number of whatever 40 off the shelves because it causes ADHD.
So I'm a bit confused as to what we're doing here. Exactly.
But I mean, I think most people are like, look, if I could do without, you know, some petroleum based food coloring. Sure, I'll choose it.
It might not. Not everyone might be us jeffy some people might want that fine whatever you be you by the way i will say it is available for you it's available right now thank you now one of the things you might notice if these things go away is that prices do go up on these items right like because the the alternatives are more expensive that's what we've been told forever yeah and we'll see maybe maybe at a certain scale no no uh investigations on how to do the product cheaper without it knowing it was coming i mean i hope so you'd think that they would and there are alternatives right beet juice is one of them you know beet juices you know maybe that's with my Skittles, man start putting beet juices my skittles too look maybe people want beet juice that's good they can have it but not with their skittles and by the way even things like skittles there are quote-unquote natural alternatives like like you pull them off of a tree natural alternatives for your skittles those do exist i remember picking them if they get overripe you got to eat them off the ground.
You do. You do.
You do. All right.
Well, we'll come back. We'll talk about the alternatives here in just a second.

Okay, we're talking about the synthetic food dyes. They want to phase out of foods in the United States.
They're working on that now. What you can substitute these for, beet juice is one of them for reds they have like certain blueberry juices uh that they use um that's fine that's fine if you want that they're not now they are not as vibrant not as bright but they could be a useful substitute that's not the main one they use though it's not normally beet juice it's usually uh carmine now carmine also is known as natural number four so instead of red 40

you're getting natural number four which which sounds wonderful it sure does okay how do you make natural number four i don't know stew how do you make natural i'm interesting people are interested in this because uh it sounds delicious first of all you go to the prickly pear cactus Okay.

Okay?

That kind of sounds interesting.

I've not seen a prickly pear cactus okay okay that kind of sounds interesting i haven't i've not seen a prickly pear cactus field but i'm sure yeah they do exist they they're come now again you're not going to be this is not going to be a an american product the the this is going to be uh central and south america okay to get these from but you go to the prickly pear uh plant and uh you don't go into the pick really prickly prickly pear plant right you don't go in there you go to the outsidely pear plant and you don't go into the prickly pear plant. Right.
You don't go in there. You go to the outside of it and you scrape off the cochineal insects that are on the outside.
Okay. Okay.
You scrape a bunch of those off. Okay.
When they become mature, you are going to harvest. The plants or the bugs? The bugs.
Okay. You're only going to harvest, however, we should be clear, only the females of this particular species of insect you're going to take off of the prickly pear plants.
I don't know what kind of magnifying glass you need to figure out which one's which, but you figure it out. Sadly, I do.
Anyway, there's a joke there somewhere else. So when these insects are mature, you brush them off the cactus, and they mostly collected by hand, a very labor intensive process.
Then the insects are killed and dried using sunlight, ovens or steam. Takes about 70,000 of these bugs to make a pound of dye that will go into your Skittles very soon.
That's got to be cheap. Now now once you dry the bugs out you you then grind the bugs into a fine powder and you take that powder and you boil it in water and you extract the vibrant carminic acid now this is mixture is now filtered and this is people are like we going to be eating insects parts? No.
It's filtered to remove the insect solids. You'll just be having the insect powder and the goo.
It leaves the liquid red extract. And then it is treated with some mineral salts to stabilize the pigment.
It is then concentrated, dried into a fine powder powder and then kept as a liquid concentrate and then it's shipped uh to be added to your skin right there so we're gonna have there's gonna be at least one bag of skittles in america i mean that's a lot of work it's gonna take yeah one pound that is amazing one pound of dye 70 000 bugs now i've been told that people are resistant to the movement to eat bugs yeah that is what i've been told over the past few months i thought we had this whole you know world economic form klaus schwab don't eat the bugs thing we will be eating more bugs if we go down this road i don't think there's any question about that i don't know that people want that exactly i think they'd rather have beet juice but it's not going to be that many you can't make the amount of product that we make doing that i just can't i think the bugs are plentiful jeffy this is why eating bugs is so wonderful you can go and get you can create these things like crazy but so the once we get the supply chain up and running these cactus bugs

we're good to go then i guess we're good to go at that point once we have we and we are already using this in in a bunch of foods this isn't like a brand new thing this is the you know one of the main alternatives uh to to red number 40 all right so eat the bugs eat the bugs in your skittles I don't know. I'm not too enthused, frankly, about that switch off.

But, you know, again, people should be able to have the choices and eat all the bugs that they desire. 888-727-BECK is the number.
This is Glenn Beck. Now, maybe you want to stay away from eating bugs.
Maybe you're thinking maybe you would eat something a little more traditionally American. Maybe you're seeing the meat at the grocery store that you're buying, and you're like, I don't think I want that.
And prices are kind of going way up, and the labels are confusing, and half the time you're not even sure if the chicken you're buying is from America or just kind of maybe vacationed here once. I don't know.
If it's if you're kind of going through that, you might want good ranchers. They source 100 percent of America, American meat.
This is no mystery labels, no imported junk pretending to be local. We're talking better beef, better chicken, better everything.
It's all from American farms and ranches. And it shows up right at your door.
You don't have to do anything weird like barter with a butcher or learn what mechanically separated means. Or, you know, you don't have to deal with any of the crazy stuff they're trying to pull on you these days.
You just pick up a box. They ship it frozen and packed, you know, like it's from Fort Knox.
And then you got a freezer full of high quality meat that didn't cost you or your sanity or your savings. If you're tired of playing grocery store roulette,

go to good ranchers.com. You'll save time, money, and probably a little bit of your sanity.

I know there was a lot of talk beforehand because there are some incredible shots you could get when it comes to just an amazing look of an interview inside that building, obviously. And I know Glenn.
Glenn loves his sets. Glenn loves his cinematography.
He's very focused on the look of the interview. I'm surprised I could even slide to your left just a little bit.
I need that.

I'd say, Glenn, if you're concerned about the look of the interview, perhaps a few push-ups.

You know what I mean?

I'm just saying.

Here, have this nice plate of bugs that look like red dye. There you go.

Take some of that in.

It's natural.

He mentioned some of the craziness going on in the city.

Homelessness is a massive problem there now and a lot of mental illness on the streets as glenn mentioned a lot of mental illness inside of the capital as well and a lot of corruption there too if you remember the story of bob menendez he was the democratic senator from new jersey and was there forever. He was accused of, you know, credibly over many, many crimes for a long time.
And Democrats just kept putting him in office and putting him in office and putting him in office. Eventually got to the place where it was completely ridiculous for him to stay.
He was accused of accepting bribes, including gold bars, famously. Oh, yes.
Cash, a luxury car, in exchange for political favors. They had found over $480,000 in cash hidden in clothing and in closets.
That's awesome. Plus, I love this, 13 gold bars in his home.
How many gold bars do you have in your home right now, Jeffy? Right now, at this time? If you could estimate it. You don't have to give me an exact number, obviously.
just estimate the number of probably probably close to zero really i don't want to i kind of want to go out on a limb and say there might be you know less than zero less than zero you may owe a gold bar to a couple of people uh this was these are business interests you know people had interest in uh with from egypt and across the world oh yeah in return he helped secure some arms deals he's allegedly he was trying to influence u.s foreign policy he was indicted in september 2023 for the bribery and the fraud and the acting as a foreign agent he was hit with additional charges in early 2024 they had actually traced the gold bar serial numbers to previous robberies. Now, they don't think he actually robbed any banks.
No, no, no. But seemingly one of the businessmen who was alleged of trying to bribe him was involved in the robberies.
To be fair, he was still a senator now. And he still is going on as normal.
He didn't leave the senator until i think after he was convicted yeah because he kept it eventually turned against him the vibes uh you know people like fetterman were on it right away saying like this guy's got to uh resign well um but but most of the democrats kind of just shut their mouth on it eventually got to the point where it was so ridiculous they had to get him out of there and he threatened to maybe run as an independent and didn't really go down that road so now he he was on trial and he was convicted but his wife was also involved in this right jeffy correct and they split up the trial because the wife had breast cancer and that originally his defense was oh yeah my wife has breast cancer she did It was all her. It was.
He really did push it off on her initially. Yes.
And now, again, he's going to prison. He's going to prison in June.
He asked the judge after he was found guilty to postpone him going to prison because he wanted to help in his wife's trial, which was nice of him. Very nice.
So he wanted to be supportive, no problem. I need to help her through her trial.
Yeah. He didn't come to trial once.
Her trial went on for several weeks. Not once.
He didn't even show up. Now, maybe he was helping her out on the side at home.
I don't know. Wait a minute.
So he got the prison time delayed to help her in the trial, but then didn go to the trial never showed up once not one time not one not even like the first day you show up with your arm around oh i'm just super supportive of my wife he just didn't come at all that's correct now she has been found guilty of bribery conspiracy and obstruction of justice charges and she's going to be sentenced about the same time as he goes to prison and she's probably going to get about the same amount of time that he gets so she was really involved in this it wasn't just him how do you know that there were times uh there was one um there was one insurance broker that was having a uh a criminal probe against them and he gave her a car to make sure that bob gold bar menendez takes care of the criminal probe oh yeah because there's there's records of uh he testified and said that uh he he already gave her a down payment on the car she called hubby and said hey look at my new car and then she was in another meeting i think with the egyptians although i'm not sure when this meeting was at a dinner party and she was just like what else can the love of my life do for you today i mean so she was definitely pushing she was pushing doing absolutely now i did not know this one one quick thing about when they found all the cash stuffed in the house yes it said that including inside the former senator's official government windbreaker i didn't know they had official government windbreakers is that part of the perks package i guess so i guess you get a government windbreaker don't keep cashing it at the house though i have heard some of these congressmen break wind often so i don't know if that has anything to do especially was the guy with the super high pants uh oh yeah from new york yeah from new york uh what's that i can't think of his name he's the guy that they say is the worst smelling worst offender yeah congressman i think i can see him yes i can see him too because this pulls his pants way up they're jacked up to his nipples yes what is it again no not barney frank he's he's a former congressman why can i not think of the guy still anyway we'll get the a second. You know who he is.
You absolutely know who he is. I can't think of a stupid name.
But this is fascinating because it wasn't like she got a Toyota Corolla either. It was a Mercedes.
No, Mercedes Benz. Yeah.
So she got that. Anyway, it's just fascinating.
She's guilty now. And she gets sentenced about the time that he goes to prison.
Both of them are done. And it was fascinating to me, especially since, A, he tried to throw her under the bus and then he gets found guilty and then he talks the judge into postponing him showing up for prison because he's going to help her with her trial and he doesn't show up.
He's a good guy. Good guy.
By the way, Jerry Nadler is the name we were thinking of. People were screaming it at the radios.
I apologize. nadler and it is interesting he was accused as being the smelliest member of congress yeah there were a number of uh reports that jerry uh was i forget the term of him like uh think of a firecracker going off down the aisle in congress okay he would just come along as a carpet bomb Yeah, he had a little bit of a flatulence issue is was the accusation i will say it would be an interesting change in our society and i don't know how america would change but i think it would change dramatically if we had like smell-o-vision on tv where where when we watched you know c-span you could smell what these people smelled like i think i think there'd be a big change in this country i think a lot of the people who are currently in congress would be would be defeated i don't disagree with you except you know that's not what we're going to be using it for uh yeah on television yeah watching other things probably none of it's good none of it nothing nothing nothing's positive by the way they're not the only relationship that's having some problems i mentioned this a little bit earlier our our friend kilmar abrigo garcia the maryland father the maryland father yes i don't know if he was father of the year although i i will assume that the Democrats will be giving him that award any day now.
But he, of course, was a suspected MS-13 gang member. He was here in the country illegally.
He waited five, some reports I'm saying five years, some or seven, to actually say, well, he needed asylum. And he needed As needed asylum jeffy because his mother's pupusa stand had been harassed by a gang uh what are you gonna do why he couldn't go back home you're gonna do you can't go back home now the issue with that claim there's a couple issues with that claim i'll be honest with there's a couple of them okay number one the pupusa stand closed a long time ago no longer exists so it'd be odd that he couldn't go back to el salvador because his pupusik stand was being attached which by the way he left his mom there so the gang's coming after his mom and he left he leaves leaves his mom and the pupusik stand there doesn't care about closes because they can't pay the protection money or something that's close also the actual gang in el salvador also doesn't really exist anymore because bukele came in and got rid of all the gangs right so the gangs aren't there the pupusas aren't there but he has to stay here that's what we're supposed to believe well yeah he and for what for his uh asylum and i know it's not asylum for his yeah it was a different type of asylum claim but it was it was a uh a lot it was some sort of preventing a uh a um a departure essentially like there's some strange uh term and i can't remember but it's like it's like asylum that was one of the reasons that he couldn't go back right that's what he said delaying yeah yeah so they they when they he was going to claim asylum and they said well you have to do that within the first year that you're here so they give us a nice window of a year you can come here set up your life uh you know go through a whole little league season i mean you can do a lot of stuff and then by one year you have to say by the way the only reason i'm here is because of my mom's pupusa stand which by the way i mentioned this already i think earlier in the week but it was around this time of day we were talking about the pupusa stand a few uh like last week and i immediately had to order pupusas on uber eats i immediately went on and ordered pupusas to be delivered immediately after the show and they were tremendous really i had never had them before i don't know how to describe it like he's like kind of like corn sort of like they're not like tortillas they're like thicker and they're kind of on both sides almost like a sandwich and in the middle i got like cheese and jalapenos oh my it was incredible jeffy like i was available to view you eating this on your youtube channel i didn't want to eat in front of people on the youtube but i did i did want to give the full food review if you're like let's put it this way if you're in a gang currently and you're looking to harass a particular type of business pupusas might be a good target because you might get free pupusas and they're delicious and they're like four dollars jeffy like they oh that's not bad this is this is an incredible value that's not bad i don't know how we're just discovering this most of the country maybe has discovered it but i just did so i'm all in on papoos so uh he you know is saying he wants to stay here that we're like okay you need to this is crazy like you're you're right it's time for for you to leave we want to get uh we send him out of there and as all this is going back and forth the democrats kind of adopt him as a mascot right this this ms13 uh alleged member a guy who has all these things going on they're highly questionable in his life certainly seem to have lied to the american government to stay here but he's got a wife and kids he becomes maryland father not ms13 member maryland father every time you hear it maryland father maryland man a maryland father this is the nicest guy in the world apparently and the left adopts him as this sort of like cause celeb mascot in the middle of all this an accusation comes out that apparently his wife because he's just a father and a husband apparently had filed for a restraining order against him based on domestic violence now normally that doesn't mean it means you lose your mascot status but not with the left they're gonna keep adopting because she took it away anyway yeah it never was it never did go fully into effect and now her this.
In 2021, she filed a protective order against her husband alleging domestic violence.

In a statement last week, however, she said she did so, quote, in case things escalated, end quote, adding that they never did.

So there you go.

You're good.

Now, I don't know how many times, Jeffy, I know you've been on the wrong side of many restraining orders over the years.

I don't know how many of them were preemptive, but apparently that's a thing. It is a thing.
It is a thing. So there we go.
A lot of people are happy about it. I'll tell you that.
Yeah, she also said, well, he's alive, and that's good. I'm sure that is good.
It is good. All right, 888-727-BECK is the phone number.
