Speaker 3 Hey, welcome to the Tuesday podcast. We We take a look at the Washington Post opinion piece.
No, not the one that

Speaker 3 Bezos is having to defend, canceling. This is another one because they can't get their opinion out that actually says most people support Kamala, even though they don't really know it.

Speaker 3 Take our test and we prove it. We took the test.
I don't think it proved it. Also, the ballot drop boxes in Washington being set on fire.
We'll talk about that.

Speaker 3 And Ryan Gurduski, he's the guy who has just been banned from CNN

Speaker 3 for making too many good political points.

Speaker 3 We'll talk about that and so much more. Ryan joins us as well on today's podcast.

Speaker 4 First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

Speaker 3 Living with pain is kind of a drag. You walk around all day

Speaker 3 with that pain constantly crashing cymbals in your ears. And if you're if you're in the kind of pain that I used to be, or worse,

Speaker 3 you'll try just about anything. I mean, if they would have said, Glenn, you got to eat cats,

Speaker 3 you know, with the people from Venezuela,

Speaker 3 I might have said,

Speaker 3 no,

Speaker 3 you eat the cats and I'll watch.

Speaker 3 But no, I would have tried it.

Speaker 3 It's cats.

Speaker 3 My wife and I started watching this show last night. Have you seen,

Speaker 3 what is it?

Speaker 3 Ah, shoot. It's with.
Is it a musical?

Speaker 5 No.

Speaker 3 It's on Apple. It's a series with Kate Blanchette and it disclaimer.
No, disclaimer or something. Anyway, I can't remember.

Speaker 5 It's a good sell, though.

Speaker 6 Yeah.

Speaker 3 It has a cat in every scene. And

Speaker 3 I'm sorry, it's driving me nuts. I hate when cats jump on people's kitchen counters.
No, no, those feet have been in a litter box.

Speaker 7 You're very strange.

Speaker 6 Get off the kitchen counter.

Speaker 8 Get a strange person.

Speaker 3 That's not strange. You're a very strange person.
If your dog had been walking around in its own poop, do you want it walking around in your kitchen counter? Some people like their animals.

Speaker 9 Oh my gosh, that's crazy. Okay.
All right, all right.

Speaker 3 Please, I'm trying to stay focused on Relief Factor. Stop masking your pain and start fighting back naturally.
How the hell did I get there?

Speaker 8 Give Relief Factor a try right now.

Speaker 3 They're three-week quick start. Somebody in the psychiatry and psychology profession analyzing this right now.
And they're like, oh, brother, I know what it is. Give Relief Factor a try.

Speaker 3 Three-week quick start is only $19.95, less than a dollar a day. ReliefFactor.com, call 800 for relief.
800, the number four relief.

Speaker 5 You're listening to

Speaker 5 the best of the Blenbeck program.

Speaker 5 Well, hello, Stu.

Speaker 5 Welcome back. Thank you very much.

Speaker 5 Week to the election. Pardon me? One week.

Speaker 8 Are you ready?

Speaker 3 I like the hope I'm living in right now. Yeah.

Speaker 8 You know?

Speaker 5 Yeah, because I keep thinking to myself, myself, God, I can't wait for this to be over. You know, this is our hellish time of every four years and it's nonstop.

Speaker 5 And then you think of what happens when it is over.

Speaker 3 Oh, my gosh, how long is it going to take for me to get this

Speaker 3 cancer screening back? I mean, they've tested me for cancer.

Speaker 3 They said it's going to take a week. I just wish this week was over.
Well, maybe not. Maybe we should enjoy this time.

Speaker 5 It's a good point. It's a good point.

Speaker 10 Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 5 And plus, we probably will have absolutely no idea who won the election on election night anyway. So that'll drag out for a while.
And then there'll be, you know, if, God forbid,

Speaker 5 if

Speaker 5 Trump wins, God forbid,

Speaker 5 we are going to see a real test of democracy. Oh, yes.
I mean, if we just elected Adolf Hitler, why would they allow that to go forward?

Speaker 5 They have to get in the streets. You don't understand.
It's not like the January 6th stuff. That was crazy.
That was crazy. But this is, I mean, they're electing Adolf Hitler.
We have to stop this.

Speaker 5 This one's justified.

Speaker 5 This one's justified. We can do it.

Speaker 5 This is America rising up. This is the most American thing.
Look back to the Tea Party.

Speaker 11 Right.

Speaker 5 That was what happened. And thankfully, the people, American people, are rising up and burning down cities all across America to protest this.

Speaker 3 At least the politicians are safe. It's just our cities that will burn.

Speaker 12 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 8 They're right.

Speaker 5 But that's okay.

Speaker 6 That's all right.

Speaker 3 There's no crime in that. They should stand up.

Speaker 5 A lot of these business owners are Republicans anyway. They wanted Hitler in in office.
They should pay the price.

Speaker 3 You said it.

Speaker 5 I can't wait for all of that because it's all coming. If Trump wins, it's all coming your way.

Speaker 5 They're going to make every single argument they've been telling you is the death of democracy for the past four years.

Speaker 3 Not if the Washington Post has its way, because you support Kamala Harris. You just don't know it, Stu.

Speaker 8 I do? Yes.

Speaker 3 Voters prefer Harris's agenda to Trump's. They just don't realize it.

Speaker 3 They're just following Donald Trump because they they like him so much.

Speaker 5 You know, oh, the guy who's known for firing people his whole entire career.

Speaker 3 Right, right, right.

Speaker 9 The guy who just says so lovable and horrible.

Speaker 6 Yeah, the guy who's the killer guy.

Speaker 3 Yeah, they're just going blindly with him. They're not thinking this one through.
So it says in the article: presidential candidate Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, neck and neck.

Speaker 3 But if the race were solely about their policies, Harris would win handily.

Speaker 10 Yeah.

Speaker 10 Yeah.

Speaker 3 This is because voters, whether they know it it or not, overwhelmingly, whether you're too stupid to realize they overwhelmingly prefer Vice President Kamala Harris's agenda to the former president.

Speaker 3 See for yourself. Rate these eight policy proposals.
When you're done, we'll show you how you align with a candidate. Ah.
Okay. So you take this question.

Speaker 8 Oh, I'd love to. Yeah, you're going to take the quiz.

Speaker 10 I'm going to do it.

Speaker 3 Okay. So here it is.

Speaker 3 Is strongly oppose is one.

Speaker 3 Strongly support is five. Okay.

Speaker 5 One to five scale.

Speaker 3 Right. Three is, I don't know.

Speaker 10 Okay.

Speaker 3 Banning homeless

Speaker 3 encampments and arresting people who refuse to leave.

Speaker 5 Strongly agree.

Speaker 5 I agree with arresting them. Yes.
Okay. And breaking up homeless encampments when they refuse to leave.

Speaker 3 Yes. Funding free online classes with money

Speaker 3 taken from private university endowments through taxes, fines, and lawsuits. This is Trump's proposal.

Speaker 3 Funding free online classes with money taken from private university endowments through taxes, fines, and lawsuits.

Speaker 5 I'd have to know more about that.

Speaker 5 Have we discussed that once I'm sure?

Speaker 9 I'm not sure.

Speaker 10 Yeah, I would put it. I'm not sure.

Speaker 8 Look,

Speaker 5 conceptually, do I like punishing universities? Yes, but it needs to be done

Speaker 5 the right way. And they're not explaining it well enough.

Speaker 13 I haven't heard Trump talk about that really once.

Speaker 5 I mean, maybe it's some policy in the back

Speaker 5 of his policy playbook, but he has not discussed it really.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I'm not necessarily against it, but I'm not necessarily for it. I need to know more than that.

Speaker 3 Allowing public school teachers to carry a concealed weapon.

Speaker 5 Allowing public school teachers to conceal.

Speaker 5 I will say.

Speaker 3 Strongly support, strongly disagree.

Speaker 14 I'll go a four on that.

Speaker 6 Four, okay. Yeah.

Speaker 5 I'm a little concerned. I've seen a lot of public school teachers lately, and I'm not necessarily sure I want them around weapons.

Speaker 3 Okay, so it's more about the teachers, less about the guns. Yes, I'd say that's a five.

Speaker 14 Well, I think it's a five.

Speaker 3 No, no, I'm going to give you a four. I'm going to give you a four.
Banning transgender people from serving in the military.

Speaker 5 Banning them from serving in the military. Yes, I don't, I'll give that a, I'll give that a

Speaker 5 trying to think of four or five.

Speaker 5 I mean, I think I'll go five. Yeah, me too.

Speaker 5 You could convince me a four, but I think that's a five on that.

Speaker 3 Allowing undocumented, you're going to be surprised by your score.

Speaker 13 I'm distracting.

Speaker 3 Allowing undocumented spouses of American citizens to stay in the U.S. while their immigration applications are being processed.

Speaker 5 Undocumented Americans, they've been legally married in the United States.

Speaker 3 No, well, not necessarily in the United States. They could have been married someplace else and then came here.
Okay. And this is an undocumented person.

Speaker 5 I'm going to say they need to stay where they are until they go through the legal process.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 you strongly oppose that.

Speaker 5 I would oppose it.

Speaker 5 Strongly opposed. What's the other option? How do they word it? Strongly and

Speaker 3 strongly and strongly disagree and then not sure.

Speaker 5 But what's the two and the four? This is somewhat.

Speaker 3 The two and the four is somewhat.

Speaker 5 Yeah, again, the details aren't there. If it's someone, it was spat out.
But I'll go with two. Okay, you're gone with

Speaker 3 you.

Speaker 3 Expanding the access and affordability of birth control.

Speaker 6 Access, I mean, birth control is already available.

Speaker 5 It's like $4 a month at Walmart.

Speaker 10 What do you mean?

Speaker 6 Are you for it?

Speaker 9 We don't need to expand it.

Speaker 5 It's just available already.

Speaker 3 Continuing military and economic support for Ukraine.

Speaker 5 So strongly oppose would be a five.

Speaker 3 Strongly oppose would be a one.

Speaker 3 Oh, okay. And there is no negative scale.

Speaker 7 Sorry, I wish this is a visual game.

Speaker 13 Yeah.

Speaker 5 So I would say I oppose it. I'll go with a two on that.
A two.

Speaker 3 Providing a $6,000 child tax credit for families with children who are younger than 12 months.

Speaker 5 Another new tax credit?

Speaker 5 I mean,

Speaker 10 I will...

Speaker 5 I don't know that we need another... Tax credit, by the way, is not a tax break.

Speaker 5 Tax credit. Credit.
Meaning, so if you pay $0 in taxes, the government's just paying you money. I will strongly oppose that.

Speaker 6 Okay. All right.

Speaker 3 You are going to be so surprised.

Speaker 5 I can't wait to see what.

Speaker 10 Do I just pull?

Speaker 5 Does this just count as a vote for me for Kamala Harris? I hope it does. It saves me time.
I don't have to go.

Speaker 3 Well, that's what they're doing.

Speaker 3 They want you to know you don't have to vote. Oh, good.
Yeah, especially if you wind up where you are. Oh, no.

Speaker 10 Where did I end up?

Speaker 8 You went.

Speaker 5 Wait, was it strongly supporting Harris or just somewhat supporting Harris?

Speaker 3 You went with more aligned with Trump. You're right in the middle, less aligned with Harris.

Speaker 13 Oh, no. Yeah.
I'm more. Oh, no.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 You didn't know that, did you?

Speaker 5 I didn't. Especially the way they worded all of those things to try to make you agree with Harris.
Right. Right.
Like, hey, do you want money going to children?

Speaker 14 Right.

Speaker 5 Well, we like children, yes. However, maybe there's a little bit more to that policy.

Speaker 3 So are you surprised how overwhelmingly you

Speaker 3 support Harris?

Speaker 8 Yeah, you know what? I'm not. You're not.
I'm not

Speaker 10 particularly. Wow.
No.

Speaker 13 Huh. I hate that.

Speaker 3 I guess that story's propaganda. Yeah.

Speaker 6 Shocking.

Speaker 5 You know, and by the way, I want you to know, that's not an endorsement. That's not an endorsement of Kamala Harris, that article which leads you to automatically agree with her policies.

Speaker 4 That's not an endorsement.

Speaker 3 That's not, but then you feel like the oddball out.

Speaker 6 And you're like, wow, I'm the only one.

Speaker 5 I'm the only one who supports Donald Trump.

Speaker 5 That's a fascinating article because, especially what's going on with the Washington Post, where I know you were out for a lot of this, but

Speaker 5 they announced that

Speaker 5 they would not make an endorsement. And we're now seeing this also from the LA Times.
USA Today kind of came out in the same vein today. You know what? We're not going to endorse.

Speaker 5 By the way, I don't know how you feel about this, Glenn, because there is a real

Speaker 5 strain of American history that goes back to newspapers actively endorsing candidates. That is a real thing that happened at the founding of the country.

Speaker 3 But they were called

Speaker 3 later, they were called the

Speaker 8 Republican

Speaker 5 or the Democrat. It was really clear about what was happening.

Speaker 5 I believe it's dumb.

Speaker 5 I don't like candidates being endorsed by newspapers. The New York Post endorsed Trump.
If I had my way, nobody would endorse anybody.

Speaker 8 It is, in fact,

Speaker 5 a way.

Speaker 5 There's no reason for a newspaper to tell me who to vote for. Give me the news.
Let me, as an adult, read the news, and then I will decide for myself. We're adults here.

Speaker 5 I don't need to be told who to vote for. It's silly.
I don't think it moves anybody.

Speaker 3 I think it's actually silly to say this isn't the Washington Democrat.

Speaker 8 Just be honest. The New York Democrat.
Yeah.

Speaker 10 The New York Times should just be the New York Democrat. Just be honest.

Speaker 5 And I'm fine with that.

Speaker 3 I'm tired of this.

Speaker 6 Oh,

Speaker 8 what? We're completely fair balanced.

Speaker 5 Right, but like, that's kind of the, I mean, like, The Blaze, for example, is not doing official endorsements either, but like quite clearly comes from a conservative perspective.

Speaker 5 We're very honest about that. National Review comes from a conservative perspective.

Speaker 5 You know, I'm trying to think of some of the schlocky left-wing publications, but they come from a left-wing, a new republic, or it comes from the left-wing perspective. I think that's totally fine.

Speaker 5 When you are saying that you are a, you know, a

Speaker 5 New York Times, like the paper of record type of situation, either be that

Speaker 5 or be honest about what you are, which is a mouthpiece for the Democratic Party. You know, just be honest about it.
I'd rather have that.

Speaker 5 Now, it's funny that the left is so angry at the Washington Post for not endorsing because, number one,

Speaker 5 their standard is quite clear here. Every journalistic organization in America must endorse their chosen candidate or democracy dies in darkness.
Yes. That is legitimately what they think.

Speaker 8 Yeah, well, because

Speaker 3 they know people are too stupid. They just don't know that they support Kamala Harris and her policy.

Speaker 5 It's so central to progressivism. How many times have you talked about this?

Speaker 8 No, I know.

Speaker 5 This is like they have to lead the sheep to the right place.

Speaker 8 Yes.

Speaker 5 This is what they're, there's the shepherds.

Speaker 12 They will lead the sheep to the proper place, the right part in the field they're supposed to be.

Speaker 4 You're bad.

Speaker 4 Stu. You are.
You are very bad.

Speaker 5 It's true. And it's like that's what they're doing.
And it's funny that they're all angry at Jeff Bezos. Now, we know a lot about Jeff Bezos.
Yes, he's very wealthy. He's also very liberal.

Speaker 8 No. Yes.
No.

Speaker 5 He is not a conservative at all.

Speaker 12 Wow, wait a minute.

Speaker 5 So

Speaker 5 you think about this a little strategically.

Speaker 5 Wouldn't it make sense if you wanted to cover the news and seem objective, but tilt it all toward Democrats?

Speaker 8 What would you do?

Speaker 5 You wouldn't endorse, you would hide your endorsement. Thank you.
Thank you. Right? Thank you.

Speaker 5 This is actually a good thing for liberals. Now, I also like it because I don't think it's the place of newspapers, but it is

Speaker 5 absolutely good for liberals

Speaker 5 for them not to endorse.

Speaker 3 It's not honest. There is their opinion piece today.
What I just gave you was their opinion piece. They're op-ed.

Speaker 5 They're leading you.

Speaker 5 It's much more effective to lead the horse to water, if you will, than go the other way, which is like they're overtly saying, hey, all of our coverage is biased. That's an endorsement.

Speaker 5 When you do an endorsement, you're saying all of our coverage is biased in one direction or another, right?

Speaker 5 If you don't do an endorsement, you're at least leaving that up to people to try to figure out. Now, with the Washington Post, it is blatantly obvious where they stand.

Speaker 5 Their reporters are stepping down because they didn't tell their voters who to vote for.

Speaker 3 Right now, you're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program, and don't forget, check out the full show for even more. We're back with more after a word from our sponsor.

Speaker 3 What if I told you that with just a little bit of your time, you can not only be paying significantly less for your phone service, but you'd also be dealing with a phone company that shares your values, not the leftist ones.

Speaker 3 It's Patriot Mobile. Consider, please, switching your cell phone service today.
I don't know

Speaker 3 why everybody hasn't done this yet. I mean that sincerely.
You're going to save money, okay? Like sometimes it's like half the cost.

Speaker 3 You get exactly the same service because you're on exactly the same cell tower. So you're getting the same service of the big three.

Speaker 3 Right now, saving money, same service, and you're sending a message, and not just an empty message, you're taking money away from Planned Parenthood that Verizon got from you and gave to Planned Parenthood.

Speaker 3 How is this not just like a no-brainer?

Speaker 3 Switch today.

Speaker 3 972 Patriot, 972 Patriot for your free month of service, patriotmobile.com slash Beck, 972 Patriot. Now back to the podcast.

Speaker 3 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.

Speaker 3 Hello, America. Welcome.
The

Speaker 3 election. We are a week away.
Pat Gray is here to,

Speaker 3 I don't know, ease the pain a little bit. How are you feeling about the election?

Speaker 5 I feel pretty good about it right now.

Speaker 3 Do you? At this, what is it? It's like 25 to 9 Central Time on Tuesday.

Speaker 3 The week before. So should I ask you again in 10 minutes how you feel?

Speaker 8 Yeah, that's kind of where I am.

Speaker 3 Now I feel pretty good about it. Yeah, I hear things like, we don't need a postmark on the on the absentee ballot.
It comes in, it doesn't have a postmark, it does have a postmark.

Speaker 14 What? What's the problem?

Speaker 5 How do you feel about ballots being lit on fire inside the drop boxes? Are you cool with that?

Speaker 10 No, I'm not really cool with that. No.

Speaker 6 Although, why are we doing drop boxes?

Speaker 3 Thank you. Why is that happening?

Speaker 11 It shouldn't be.

Speaker 5 Look, if you're doing mail, vote by mail. It's unbelievable.
Put it in the freaking mail. Yes.

Speaker 3 Put it in the mailbox.

Speaker 5 Put it in a mailbox instead of the Dropbox. Put it in the mailbox outside your house.

Speaker 5 There are a million different ways to mail things in the United States, which, by the way, has a post office in its Constitution.

Speaker 10 It's really easy to mail crap out of it.

Speaker 3 I got to tell you.

Speaker 3 See, I think more like the Democrats on things like this because

Speaker 3 I don't hate different races like you do, Stu.

Speaker 6 Oh, wait, but I think

Speaker 3 they are

Speaker 3 the different races just, they don't know what a mailbox even looks like or where they might be situated.

Speaker 3 So they have an easy time finding the drop box because we all know.

Speaker 10 We all know where the drop boxes are. Sure, sure.
Sure.

Speaker 5 It's so, it's such a weird argument. Like, just put it in the mail.
I mean, it's not like a requiring postage. There's not even a cost associated with mailing these ballots.

Speaker 5 They're coming to you for free. You're mailing them out for free.
You know,

Speaker 8 during a global pandemic, maybe there was a case for it. Wait, what was it?

Speaker 10 What's the case? What was the case?

Speaker 5 So you didn't have to gather with other people there?

Speaker 3 You don't have to. You go to the mailbox.

Speaker 5 In fact, like, for most people.

Speaker 15 What if there were germs on the mailbox?

Speaker 5 For most people who don't live in a big city, because if you live in a big city, you might not have the typical home mailbox. You just put it out in front of your house.

Speaker 3 But for most people, I'm talking about the big blue and red one.

Speaker 13 No, I know, I know.

Speaker 5 Like, you could argue, right, in the COVID period that you would have to, if you were in a situation where you didn't have that mailbox out in front of your house, right, like most homeowners would, you have to go to a central location and drop it off.

Speaker 5 But that would just be the same. Like, there's no improvement over the situation that you would have mailing it.
A drop box would just be basically the same thing.

Speaker 5 You'd go and you just drop it off in a different box. But what that situation creates is a lot of ballots in the same location for someone who wants to damage them.

Speaker 5 Like if you put your own little envelope in there and it has an incendiary device inside and then lights all the ballots on fire, which just happened in multiple places.

Speaker 5 Was it Washington and Oregon at least?

Speaker 5 And would you be surprised at all if it happens in 25 other locations before this election?

Speaker 10 I mean, I wouldn't.

Speaker 3 What is the motivation? We don't know who did it yet.

Speaker 5 They do think it's the same person, though, right? They think it's the same person or someone who is driving a Volvo. So if you're driving a Volvo,

Speaker 3 we're looking at you. And no conservatives driving a Volvo.
Let me go to, at least in Washington State. Let me go to Cut 12, please.
No, no, no. I'm sorry, not Cut 12.
The, yeah, six.

Speaker 5 There it is. Got the Dropbox.
Yeah, it's on fire.

Speaker 3 Oh, they're fine. I think they're fine.
They're okay. Just

Speaker 3 brush them off.

Speaker 5 In Oregon or Washington. Yeah, let them on fire.
Let them burn.

Speaker 9 Ash is to fall.

Speaker 5 That's the philosophy, I guess. But it's like, and by the way, you can also track your ballot.
Like, you can see

Speaker 5 if it was received. So

Speaker 5 if your ballot was lit on fire, you can go online and make sure that it was actually received. And if it's not received, you can just cast it

Speaker 8 again.

Speaker 5 Because if it hasn't been counted, you wouldn't be able to do it after it was counted.

Speaker 5 So, I mean, the whole thing is kind of a weird risk, right? Like you're trying to affect a couple hundred ballots in Washington or Oregon, and you're risking a federal crime, right?

Speaker 5 Like the motivation here, what do you think it is, Pat? Do you have any theories on why you would do such a thing?

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 13 I don't

Speaker 5 know what that would accomplish because they've already told him.

Speaker 3 Hey, if you put your ballot in a drop box before this date, then you need to come and do it again.

Speaker 5 So everybody knows.

Speaker 3 They've got to come and do it again. So I don't know what you've accomplished.
Well, this is weird. It's really, really easy, I mean, to figure out.
Really, I mean, honestly.

Speaker 3 Who would be against the drop boxes? It would be the people that are,

Speaker 3 you know,

Speaker 3 clearly Donald Trump supporters. Nazis.
Right.

Speaker 3 No, no. No.
They would be the ones.

Speaker 8 They were all Nazis.

Speaker 7 Yeah.

Speaker 5 All Donald Trump supporters are Nazis. You know that, right?

Speaker 3 No, they, no. Isn't that Kamala that's a Nazi?

Speaker 3 Oh. Wait a minute.

Speaker 5 No, wait a minute.

Speaker 8 Wait a minute.

Speaker 5 You seem like you're not going to be able to do that.

Speaker 8 So I was just thinking, no, I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 I was just, I wasn't thinking. I was thinking just, I got a little confused and I was thinking, oh, no, she's the Nazi because that would motivate people.

Speaker 3 to go in and destroy votes, you know, motivate people to be really, really angry, motivate people to maybe, I don't know, engage in a color revolution.

Speaker 3 I don't know, to stop this vote in any way possible, especially if it looks like Donald Trump's people are winning.

Speaker 5 Possibly, although I don't consider Washington or Oregon a swing state. No, I don't either.

Speaker 3 I mean,

Speaker 3 it would be

Speaker 3 weird. Because there is, in Washington state, there's no chance Donald Trump's going to win.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I mean, look, it just could be an insane person.

Speaker 5 This stuff does happen. People just do it.

Speaker 3 It could be an insane person on the right.

Speaker 5 Could be. It could be just an insane person.
It could be an insane person on the left. I don't know who did it.

Speaker 5 But I mean, the point is you don't create situations in which lots of ballots are in the same location and easily accessible to anyone passing by them.

Speaker 5 That just seems like a really obvious thing that you don't do. Drop boxes are a stupid idea.

Speaker 5 Now, they can obviously light mailboxes on fire too. But the point of that, of course, would be that there's lots of other mail in there.
You're going to get maybe a couple of ballots.

Speaker 3 Like it would be a low impact situation.

Speaker 5 If this happened in a state like Pennsylvania or Arizona or whatever, some other swing state, you know, a few hundred ballots could really make a difference.

Speaker 5 I'm sure not everyone's going to recast their ballot there. There probably will be some effect to what we just witnessed.
You know, that probably won't overturn the presidential election.

Speaker 5 But there's just no reason.

Speaker 5 Like we act as if like there's no, everyone knows how to mail things. It's just like the IID.
Everyone knows how to get an ID. Everyone knows.

Speaker 5 Everyone who's going to take the time to understand policies enough to go cast a vote is plenty capable of getting an identification for themselves. That is absolutely

Speaker 3 minorities, though. No, believe that.

Speaker 5 I'm saying I legitimately believe people with different skin tones are capable of getting identification.

Speaker 10 But they don't know where the DMV is.

Speaker 5 No, they do. Like, they actually know how to use their phone.

Speaker 11 What you're talking about and Hispanic people? Black people, Hispanics.

Speaker 10 Where their local DMV is?

Speaker 5 Wait a minute.

Speaker 3 You realize that we haven't fully engaged in eugenics for a while.

Speaker 6 I know.

Speaker 3 So we haven't bred the stupidity out of people of different colors yet.

Speaker 5 It's shocking, but it's a bit of an old wives tale that black people can't have driver's licenses.

Speaker 12 You mean they drive?

Speaker 5 They can drive. No.
Pat, minorities are capable of doing the same things us whiteys are able to do.

Speaker 10 No, yeah.

Speaker 10 Harry. Are you leading that?

Speaker 11 No, I know. I read it on that.

Speaker 10 You read it online.

Speaker 11 I read it online.

Speaker 3 From like the New York Post or some crazy place like that.

Speaker 5 No,

Speaker 5 and I've noticed it even in my own life that people with different skin colors, different genders tend to be very similar to other people in their wants, needs, desires, motivations.

Speaker 3 You're not making any sense this morning.

Speaker 8 Okay. I mean, I'm drunk.

Speaker 5 So it could be.

Speaker 8 Thank you.

Speaker 8 I am really drunk.

Speaker 3 The next thing you know, I'll be telling you a true story about standing in line with a minority. And

Speaker 3 he said,

Speaker 3 you know what really pisses me off?

Speaker 6 What?

Speaker 3 That the ID thing in other states, because in Texas you need it. In other states, you don't need an ID.

Speaker 3 What are they saying about my people? What are they saying? I'm like,

Speaker 3 I don't know what they're saying. So insurance.

Speaker 5 You know what they're saying. It's so insane.

Speaker 3 You can't get an ID. It's just

Speaker 3 too stupid. You're too stupid.

Speaker 12 Yep. Too dumb.

Speaker 8 Poor people, minorities.

Speaker 5 Too dumb. Too dumb to get IDs.

Speaker 3 Well, let me just ask you, because you said this might be an insane person that did this. It might be a crazy person.
It could be. Okay, could be, could be, could be.

Speaker 3 I just want to show you how balanced the left really is could you go cut 12 please this is a woman uh at a walmart well

Speaker 16 i didn't touch it

Speaker 16 not that long ago and i can't stand another man touching me well no one did that

Speaker 16 I need to leave.

Speaker 16 I still got, I still got, okay.

Speaker 16 She threw some of my stuff. Okay.

Speaker 16 Hell if I know. I'm so sorry.

Speaker 16 I'm sorry. Well, she wasn't sorry when she cut in line.

Speaker 16 I didn't see you. To make it.

Speaker 16 Oh, I just asked her if she saw anyone in line.

Speaker 6 Wow.

Speaker 3 Like crazies. Like people that need to be on medication.
You know, or see a therapist.

Speaker 6 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 8 Be in a mental institution.

Speaker 3 Right. I mean, that is, I mean, I feel really, really bad that that's the way you feel.
And I have sympathy for you,

Speaker 3 deep sympathy for you. You've been raped, but you're not a healthy person.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 it's really honestly like this seemingly a lot of places where they just

Speaker 3 are,

Speaker 3 they got a screw loose. Listen to this guy.

Speaker 17 The first trans woman. to have a successful uterus transplant,

Speaker 17 ovaries and eggs included.

Speaker 17 And I want to be the first trans woman to have an abortion.

Speaker 6 Oh my gosh.

Speaker 10 What a great goal. What an incredible goal.
What a great goal.

Speaker 3 I mean, you know, you're setting that bar pretty high.

Speaker 4 You know, first,

Speaker 3 I'm going to, you know, I'm going to call myself a woman and expect everybody to call me a woman when I'm a dude.

Speaker 7 Okay, that's a pretty high bar.

Speaker 3 But then I want a uterus with everything, with eggs and everything. Fallopian tubes.
Right. And I want to then be impregnated.

Speaker 3 And then

Speaker 3 I want to be the first man who claims to have a woman, be a woman who has a uterus with eggs that have been fertilized

Speaker 3 and then abort that baby.

Speaker 4 That's a beautiful goal. Wow, that's a beautiful title.
That's a goal.

Speaker 5 Step aside, Neil Armstrong.

Speaker 9 You know, that is.

Speaker 2 This is the best of the Glenn Beck podcast.

Speaker 3 Ryan Gurduski is on with us. He is the founder of the 1776 Project PAC and a political consultant.
Welcome, Ryan. How are you?

Speaker 15 Good. Thanks for having me.
It's been

Speaker 15 one crazy 12 hour.

Speaker 3 I bet it was.

Speaker 3 For people who didn't hear it, let me play what happened on CNN.

Speaker 3 If you don't want to be called Nazis, stop doing it.

Speaker 19 You're called an Nemesis. No, no, no.
You don't call them an NC Semite more than anyone else's table.

Speaker 3 People with their...

Speaker 18 No, by me.

Speaker 15 I never called you an anti-Semite.

Speaker 18 I mean, I'm not seeing her saying that. I'm a supporter of the Palestinians, so I'm used to it.
Yeah, well, I hope your beeper doesn't go off. The thing is, is that you just say I should be killed.

Speaker 19 You should not say that. No, I said that.
You just said I should be killed. No, I know I said that.
No, I did not say that.

Speaker 19 Yes, TV. No, I didn't.
Hold on.

Speaker 19 I said I hope you're not.

Speaker 2 Let me just stop.

Speaker 3 So there's this fake outrage of, you know,

Speaker 3 you just say I want to be killed.

Speaker 3 And Ryan immediately apologizes. Okay, fine.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to say that. I'm sorry.
It was wrong.

Speaker 3 But the other guy doesn't apologize to you for calling you and people like you a Nazi.

Speaker 3 In my book, that's worse than a Hamas member. I mean, they're in the same category, but one's worse.

Speaker 15 Well, the funny thing is, I sound much funnier in re-listening to it than I did live because it was going crazy.

Speaker 15 Well, also, the thing was, the crazy thing was, is that he also said, like, Trump sounded like Goebbels. Now, I had never met Mr.
Somme before. I have heard a lot about him.

Speaker 15 but he was making accusations. I was calling him an anti-Semite, that I was like doing all these things to him.
I'd never spoken about him before. I had no idea who he was.

Speaker 15 And going on to that, and going onto that show, I decided, like, so what happens is if you don't do cable news, the producers text you all the topics a few hours in advance.

Speaker 15 And they could range from things you know a lot about, things you don't know anything about.

Speaker 15 So I was, so one of the topics that they just changed, they're going to do two segments on the Trump rally because obviously it's the most important thing in the world.

Speaker 15 They actually scrub something about like war to cover, you know, the show, the comedian cell phoning.

Speaker 15 So then we were going on to do a segment at the end with Brian Stelter about trust and accuracy in the media. And I like just about lost it.
And I was like, here's what I'm going to do.

Speaker 15 This is what I said to myself, Golly's the show. I'm going to tell him you are fake news.
You destroy accuracy in the media. You destroy trust in the media.

Speaker 15 And you owe everyone on CNN an apology for Russia, for Russia Gate, for COVID, for the Stormy Daniels lawyer.

Speaker 15 I said, this is my last episode because they're never going to have me back after I do what I'm going to do. This was just a throwaway line because what happened was I got on set.

Speaker 15 The woman sitting next to me, who was also outraged, I wasn't even speaking to her. She was making comments about like white man humor the whole run into the show.

Speaker 15 And I was like, and we're just like, it just freaking irks me. I'm like, I would never say opposite racial things like that, but if I did, I wouldn't even make it to the show open.

Speaker 15 But it was just like the double standard. Then I said on the show that people in the media said everyone who attended the Trump rally was a Nazi.
Abby said that wasn't true. Totally true.

Speaker 15 Which by the way, Abby has falsely corrected me on air for things I said it was true.

Speaker 15 Like she said, I made up the word the Ferguson effect, which I know very clearly, even though she wrote about it 10 years ago.

Speaker 15 So anyway, I did the thing with the throwaway line. We go to commercial.
Medi throws his mic on the table, storms out of the place. I'm not going to be on with him.

Speaker 15 Abby is like, can you please step aside? Because Allison was like, he needs to leave. And I was like, and I was like, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to embarrass.

Speaker 15 I hope you don't get in trouble with corporate. I told the producer, I hope you don't get in trouble with corporate.

Speaker 15 I didn't mean to do anything to harm you because they've always been very lovely to me and I'm a professional. And that was that.
And I was like, okay, cool.

Speaker 15 And then, I mean, you would have thought I, you know, am responsible for the Hindenburg disaster, the way that people are responding to it. I'm like, calm the freaking hell down.

Speaker 15 I said to somebody who, by the way, always Sarin stands up for terrorists,

Speaker 15 you know, or says Sarah and stands up and kowtows a terrorist

Speaker 15 and terrorist funding countries that

Speaker 15 they are

Speaker 15 beefers blow up. It's a joke, whatever.
Like, you know, grow a pair. Like, I don't know.
I'm a man.

Speaker 15 If you sit there and make a joke at my expense and you apologize if I'm really offended, whatever, I'm over it in 30 seconds. I'm not going to go storm off and act like,

Speaker 15 you know what.

Speaker 8 So, go ahead. I was going to say, Ryan,

Speaker 5 people probably don't know a lot about this guy, Mediasan. You know, is he...

Speaker 5 I'm sure you've looked into him a little bit more since all of this has gone down. I mean, he does seem to be well known for conveniently taking the side of terrorists over and over and over again.

Speaker 5 What do we know about what his beliefs are?

Speaker 15 I don't know him. I genuinely, I don't watch cable news.
I certainly don't watch MSNBC. I mean, I watch cable news once in a while.
I don't watch MSNBC.

Speaker 15 Unless it's an election night where they're losing and they're all crying on set. I don't know.

Speaker 15 So I don't know what he's all about. I genuinely don't.
I googled him a couple, like maybe like 15 years ago, he said that non-believers are all cattle and animals and that gays are pedophiles.

Speaker 15 So that was like basically, and he said he apologized since then, but like that's basically all you need to know is like where they're coming from.

Speaker 15 And I think that he was like doing a show with like the nation of, I think it was Qatar, Qatar, I think. I don't know.

Speaker 15 I don't want to say they're saying anything, but he was doing a show with a foreign country at one point. He was booted off MSNBC.

Speaker 15 You know, whatever. I don't know.
But literally, like,

Speaker 15 I don't know. I don't know.
I don't want to sit there and say more. I've heard things, but I can't, I can't, like, you know, back all them up.

Speaker 5 Yeah. It seems like when you're talking about just rhetoric.

Speaker 15 We're not great. Right.

Speaker 5 When you're talking about rhetorical flourish of sorts, you know, you could put your comment and him calling you a Nazi in roughly the same category, right?

Speaker 7 Like it's an

Speaker 5 overstatement. Sure, you're making a point.
It's a it's a it's a debate.

Speaker 5 But when someone comes after you and calls you the worst, a member of the worst group of people that anyone can ever imagine, like it's sort of normal to come back and be a little prickly about the situation.

Speaker 15 Well, also the thing is, they will never know what it's like to be a conservative in the media. They will never.

Speaker 15 The only person, only Democrat in probably the history of the world who know what it's like to be a Republican is Joe Biden

Speaker 15 in the one month that they all sat there and said, you have to get out. And the whole media was against them.

Speaker 15 They do not know what it's like to do show after show with where the hosts are biased and the guests are biased and it's three-on-one screaming at you constantly.

Speaker 15 And you're like, hey, I read the statistic somewhere and it doesn't really matter. Because what is important is the narrative.
That's all they care about.

Speaker 15 It is the narrative and the narrative and the narrative. And if you sit there and you shoot against the narrative for so long, it is, you know, they have to get rid of you.

Speaker 15 I don't care. It's not like I was going to get a show on scene in any way.
I've lived like a completely normal life. I do school board elections with the 1776 project.
That's what I do.

Speaker 15 This is just like something I did, you know, for four, well, three and a quarter episode, if you think about it.

Speaker 3 You were only on three and a quarter episodes

Speaker 15 of Abby's show, and then the other show is on twice. I did five, I did maybe like five and five and a quarter shows in like, you know, three weeks.

Speaker 6 That's amazing.

Speaker 15 All of them went viral.

Speaker 5 Yeah, I was going to say, I think every single one of them went viral. I thought you were on all the time because

Speaker 5 every single time I turn on the Twitter, you're going viral for this.

Speaker 15 No,

Speaker 15 I was on the whole network less than a full six episodes. And, you know, whatever.
I didn't care.

Speaker 15 But I had two, two, I'm going to give credit to some person, two, the booking person at CNN who originally talked to me. They said, we're looking for a Republican.

Speaker 15 I said, if you want a Republican who's going to apologize for being a Republican, it ain't me. And they said, that's not what we're looking for.
So you can come on. I said, okay, great.

Speaker 15 I told them flat out who I was, that I was very open and honest. I'm not going to apologize for being a Republican.
I'm not going to attack Donald Trump, not on CNN. My grandmother would kill me.

Speaker 15 Like, that is not going to be, that is not going to be me. And so, like, whatever.
Like, that's all fine. And they let me on.
So I'm lucky to have the opportunity.

Speaker 15 Probably could have handled it differently. But at the end of the day, I'm not a Nazi.
And the fact that one guest gets to call another guest a Nazi and other one can't have a, you know, flip it joke.

Speaker 15 That was funny, by the way, much more than a funny line.

Speaker 5 Objectively a funny line. Yes.

Speaker 5 I mean, it is.

Speaker 5 It's, you know, it is a little roast comedian. Like, we just had this experience with the MSG situation.

Speaker 5 It's in that category, which they might not like, but objectively a funny line.

Speaker 3 So, can I ask you, when the producers called, they said you were a little reluctant to come on the air.

Speaker 6 Why?

Speaker 15 When they called about what?

Speaker 3 They're coming on the air here.

Speaker 12 Here?

Speaker 15 Oh, oh, well, because, like, listen, I mean, I didn't want to, not that I don't care about amplifying the story. I don't, I don't, I don't think it is a story.

Speaker 15 Like, no one, in 24 hours, someone's going to find something else to be outraged with.

Speaker 15 I don't want, I did, I went to a party literally like a few days ago with conservative party and every four seconds some stranger i didn't know yelled at me the ferguson effect and i was like great and i was like and then i'm like oh great i'm gonna call beeper for the rest of my life now so i was like i don't want to sit there and just be talking about this forever so i was like okay i'll do like a few shows today and then none after this and that will be that and um you know because i was like listen i have a moment where i can talk about my pack talk about the school board elections and mention it while i'm doing it and that'll be that i just don't think anyone's really gonna care about it come you know, and come in a couple of weeks.

Speaker 15 And by the way, wait, one other thing, by the way, that other segment that I was on, I was going to say this, this is the most insane story in the world.

Speaker 15 This is a total, like, normal CNN segment that I was on.

Speaker 15 I was on a segment with the Ferguson effect, and the two women next to me, Ashley Allison, I don't remember the other girl's name because we only spoke, spent like five minutes together.

Speaker 15 We did a segment for 25 minutes, almost a half an hour. And one of them looked at the one I don't remember.

Speaker 15 She looked at Ashley Allison on set, right when we commercial break, pointed at me, goes, goes, what's his name? And she goes, I have no idea.

Speaker 15 We've been on the show for 30 minutes together and our names were publicly announced and didn't sit there and say like, oh, hi, nice to meet you, yada, yada, yada.

Speaker 15 A lot of just mean girl nonsense like that. So anyway, I just wanted to.

Speaker 6 So

Speaker 3 the 1776 project, is that the 1776 project that was

Speaker 3 banned by or stopped immediately after Biden got into office?

Speaker 15 No, no, no. This is a pack to flip school board elections.
We have done over almost 1,000 school board elections in three years.

Speaker 15 We put money directly into school board races to support conservatives for a myriad of issues, everything from testing standards to

Speaker 15 enforcement of school rules to CRT to the trans issue.

Speaker 15 There's one school board in Texas that we literally flipped every single seat in. So we have done this.
We have races coming up in Maryland and in Arizona next week.

Speaker 15 We have put hundreds of thousands of dollars into those races, and we are trying to sit there and get conservatives elected across the country to protect kids public education.

Speaker 3 How do you feel about the election?

Speaker 15 You know, I'm nervous. Listen, I think Trump's doing well in the Sunbelt.
I wrote something for my sub-stack

Speaker 15 two days ago. The biggest, the big, craziest thing in the world, and this is going to drive you nuts.

Speaker 15 In 2020, the census admitted that they got the data wrong and they gave extra seats, congressional seats, to Rhode Island, Colorado, and Minnesota over Texas was supposed to get one extra and Florida was supposed to get two.

Speaker 15 If Trump wins the Sunbelt and loses the three Rust Belt states, he will lose the election 270 to 268. Had they not misallocated those three seats, he would have won 271 to 267.

Speaker 15 So things like that, I'm at this point playing in my head, driving me crazy. He's got to win one Rust Belt state.
We just got to win Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pensacola. Oh, Pennsylvania, Pensacola.

Speaker 15 Sorry, Pennsylvania. I think about Florida now.
Pennsylvania.

Speaker 15 I think things look good. Republicans are voting like their life depends on it, which is great.
We need to do a little bit more, and we just need to get some independence along the way.

Speaker 15 And he should win win one of those states.

Speaker 3 Let me ask you, what's your take on the support behind Kamala?

Speaker 15 I think that a lot of it is people who've won hate Trump and they're just broken to hate Trump. I think that part of it is also

Speaker 15 the astroturfed female empowerment nonsense that she's just so great. And I mean, look, she went from being Selena Myers on Veep to being a girl boss in 24 hours in the media.
Like

Speaker 15 everyone remembers, and this is why they hid hid her for so long. This is why they're keeping her hidden.
She has a billion dollars. It's a lot of money.
She has all these unions.

Speaker 15 It's a lot of effort.

Speaker 15 What she doesn't have is a lot of support, but she's harping on this fascism and Nazism thing because she's got one group, one group that can put her in the White House, and that is suburban moms and dads who are very scared of it.

Speaker 15 And they don't have to worry about tax cuts because they make a lot of money. They don't live in a high-crime neighborhood.
Their kids go to good schools.

Speaker 15 They are insulated in a very comfortable bubble. A lot of them live in places that look like the 1950s.
So they don't have this feeling. They all have Ukraine flags because it means nothing to them.

Speaker 15 But Hispanics, blacks, Muslims, Jews, people have a lot of stake on the line because they're living in communities that deal with 2020 and afterwards. They're increasingly voting for Trump.

Speaker 15 And that is why she's harping so heavily that if you don't do this, if you don't vote for me, you're a bad person. You're a bad white person.
You're a bad mom. You're a bad suburban person.

Speaker 15 You're a bad person. You have to vote for me.
And that is her closing message. I don't know how effective it would be, but I mean, these people all vote.
They all vote.

Speaker 15 So the non-college educated, white working class, blue-collar guy out in Pennsylvania, there were 2.66 million of them in 2016 who were not even registered to vote. A lot have registered since then.

Speaker 15 20% of all early votes for Republicans are first-time voters. It's got to stay that way, and it's got to increase.
Yeah, that was the day that was released out yesterday.

Speaker 3 Ryan, thank you so much. Really appreciate it and hope we talk again.

Speaker 3 1776 Project PACT founder, political consultant, and a guy who should wear this as a badge of honor, now banned from CNN for telling the truth and telling a joke.
