ABC Wednesdays, the Golden Bachelor is all new.

Hi, Mel.

Hello.

Former NFL star Mel Owens is looking for his second chance at love.

I'm hopeful that I'll find true love.

But these women are in a league of their own.

Mel has never been exposed to women like us.

I don't know how he can handle it all.

The Golden Bachelor season premiere.

To love, happiness, and fun.

Wednesdays, 9-8 Central on ABC and stream on Hulu.

First, let me tell you about this amazing phone.

This is the up phone,

and you can get one right now.

It is truly a remarkable phone.

It is

secure, as secure as you can get.

I mean, you know, the federal government can get into absolutely anything.

But this stops Google, Facebook.

all the apps that you have from monitoring you and tracking you and selling your information.

It has all all kinds of things.

It's not in the Google or

Apple ecosystem.

It comes with its own operating system.

It has its own App Store, own Messenger, which you can use to make end-to-end encrypted calls and video calls.

You can send encrypted files and photos, even

create secure chat groups.

This is the phone that I think every patriot needs.

It's got a VPN and an antivirus.

Hello, Stu.

How are you?

Good, Glenn.

How about yourself?

Really good.

Really good.

Big trip.

This was, I saw some of the pictures that were posted.

Yeah,

I haven't had it yet it is i saw stuff in north carolina i've never seen before i saw houses that had been washed down the river and were upside down on the train tracks uh i saw train tracks where you know those things are built pretty strong you know they build a real strong foundation The foundation completely eroded away from underneath the train tracks and just the train tracks just kind of suspended over nothing.

I mean, everything

in this place is going to have to be redone.

Everything.

I just saw things I didn't

expect to see.

The power of the water coming down these creeks, then rivers.

And literally like the power of the Mississippi.

I saw a house.

I think we have a picture of this.

I saw a a house with a bunch of mobile homes all stacked up next to this house that seemed to be somewhat still on its foundation.

Okay.

And all these mobile homes stacked.

And then right behind that house was another house that was right on the back of that house.

And I said, wow,

look at that.

All those kind of washed up next to the house.

And he said, no, those are actually from about five blocks down the street.

And the house, that house stayed kind of on its foundation enough to where it just, all these mobile homes just were slamming against it and stopped because the house was in the way.

He said, but what's really interesting is the house right behind it.

I said, yeah.

And he said, that house, we don't know where that house came from.

We think that was two towns upriver.

Two towns?

Two towns upriver.

The water was above.

Oh, it's crazy, Stu.

It is nuts.

I saw a house upside down.

I saw

semi-trucks that were like just tossed by the water upside down, had rolled, were in the street,

had been rolled by the river several times.

Semi-trucks rolled by the river and 100 feet away, maybe 200 feet away from the road, upside down.

This was crazy.

Bridges just completely washed out.

And the water in some places was like six feet above the bridge.

I don't know how long it's going to take to, I mean, it will take years

to put these towns back together.

And, you know,

I've never been.

to the Smoky Mountains before.

I went, it was really strange because the only time I've been in Asheville is when I went to go visit Billy Graham like 10 years ago, 11 years ago.

And it's just this beautiful town, just a beautiful town.

And he lives right outside of town up on one of these mountains.

And I remember thinking how beautiful it was when I was there.

But I didn't really, you know, I didn't, I wasn't thinking about the mountains or anything else.

And

except going up to his house, I wasn't in the mountains.

And especially because we were doing life flight yesterday, I was on the helicopter

a lot, and I was above these mountains.

Two things come to mind.

First of all,

in my family, because I'm from the West Coast and, you know, we have the Cascades and the Rocky Mountains, I've always joked with my family, oh, the Smoky Mountain bumps.

Oh, that's really, you know, it's not like, it's not, you know, it's not like a mountain range to me, jokingly.

But it actually is, because this is the first time I was there.

It is

stunning.

I would live in this area, not just for the beauty, but the people

are

amazing.

This is,

I witnessed yesterday 9-12.

I've talked about 9-12 forever, that that's the people we need to be.

When nobody cared about who you voted for, nobody cared what party you were, nobody cared about anything.

You would just stop people in the street and go, are you okay?

You didn't know them,

but you could look at them and you could see the suffering in their eyes because you were suffering as well.

And you would just stop it.

Are you okay, brother?

You okay?

Can I do anything for you?

That was one of the most amazing days I've ever lived.

That's what this is in North Carolina.

And I'll bet you it's the same in Tennessee and Georgia.

They know nobody's coming.

No, they know nobody is coming.

The mountain range in Asheville,

we had to fly over the mountain range.

We had airlifted this,

she must have been 80-year-old, 85-year-old woman.

She had broken her hip and her knee,

and she didn't have any insurance, and she was up north.

This is like a month ago.

And she was up north, and she came down to be with her family in North Carolina and was supposed to go back up, but they had her on antibiotics as they did the surgery.

But because she didn't have insurance, they just pushed her out as fast as they possibly could, and they didn't give her any antibiotics.

Well, now

she was riddled with

she needed antibiotics.

Her leg was absolutely on fire, it was really infected.

And she was in trouble.

And

we flew her, it was 23 minutes from her place to the airport or to the hospital.

And

I'm flying with the pilot.

And I said, how far do you think, how long would it take if you had to drive this?

He said,

from there, which was just over a couple of mountain peaks, he was like, maybe two hours.

He said, and now, maybe five?

Because how do you get out of here?

Because all of the bridges and some of of the, I mean, just landslides coming down.

It's incredible.

And then kind of like a tornado.

I've seen ground zero in Oklahoma of a tornado.

There's nothing like that.

There's nothing like the damage that I saw here.

Because it didn't grind everything to a pulp like a tornado does.

It just moved everything.

And I just don't know how.

I mean, it's going to take years to restore this.

But because of the location of it, it's almost impossible.

You have to have helicopters to help people.

And the government is doing everything they can to shut down.

I mean, yesterday, I was calling it the Cajun Air Force.

Because, or not the Cajun Air Force, the Hillbilly Air Force.

You know, they had the Cajun, Cajun, Cajun Navy.

This is the Hillbilly Air Force.

The guy at the

Asheville

Harley-Davidson place, I met him yesterday.

That place was wiped out,

but it still was standing.

The bikes are all, you know, he's going to, he just lost everything.

But they shoveled the mud out of that place and he said, I've got a field here.

You can use that as a landing place.

There were helicopters coming in and going out, and the government tried to shut them down

and said, you know,

this is,

nobody from the FAA is involved here.

You're going to have to shut this down.

And Adam Smith, who's retired special forces who was running it, he was like, really?

Yeah, you know what you're going to do?

You're going to leave because I have another helicopter landing and one taking off in a few minutes.

They were just pissed.

You know, you're not here.

If you had all of the assets here, if you had called one of the, oh, I don't know,

mini forts, bases, and special forces that are sitting on bases in North Carolina, maybe we would shut this down, but you're not sending anything to help people.

So get off our land.

That was a common theme

yesterday.

When we picked up this guy, it was, you know, I just don't think of

me as, you know, somebody.

I think of me as me, not Glenn Beck, the radio guy.

And

we show up with the helicopter.

We land in this field and

we go to pick up this lady.

We're, you know, right at the front stairs.

And

the son of this, this,

or grandson, I think, of this woman, he turned to me and he's like,

you look familiar.

And I said, hi, I'm Glenn.

And he said, oh, hi, Glenn.

And then he looked at me again,

Glenn Beck?

And I said, yeah.

And he's like, that's unexpected.

And

he's like, you know, you got to see my cousins, you know, Tom.

Jethro, whatever, you know, come up here.

No, don't walk.

You run up here.

And then he said, don't look directly at them.

They're bad runners.

And the whole family, the whole neighborhood didn't call 911.

The son called somebody in the military that he knew that was retired and said, hey, do you know anybody with a helicopter?

Because the...

While they have two

helipads at the airport in the city over the mountains, they don't have the helicopters.

They're out of commission.

So nobody can be flown in.

So we're doing the life flight.

It's incredible.

What this audience has done is incredible.

But he didn't call.

And then he called a friend and he said, you know what?

I think I know.

And he called another friend who was formerly in the military.

And then he called another friend who was in the military and he's like, yeah, they have helicopters right here.

Mercury 1's flying these helicopters right now.

I know know Adam Smith who's running this.

And so they didn't call 911.

It's not that community.

And as we were leaving, I said to one of the cousins, I said, hey, you tell everybody you know

that you haven't been forgotten, that there are millions of Americans that care about you, love you guys, and want to help and are helping.

And he said, that is, that's very kind of you.

Now, will you tell everybody you know something for me?

And I said,

sure.

And I expected, you know, like, thank you or something.

And he, he looked at me and he said, you tell everybody you know

that even if they don't care, we'll take care of our own damn self if nobody shows up.

And I was like, I gave him a hug.

I was like, I love you.

It is America.

And all I could think of yesterday was, this is God's army.

This is exactly what Billy Graham told me would happen.

That people, I talked to people and they were like, I don't know.

I just felt this calling to come here and help.

And now I'm, you know, doing this and this and this.

And the people have taken care of it.

Now, I mean, they need a lot of help, but wait until I tell you about

FEMA.

I found a FEMA truck and we were driving from seeing some, you know, bad areas.

And

I said, wait, wait, turn the car around.

I think I just saw a FEMA truck.

And everybody's like, no.

And I'm like, turn around.

I saw a FEMA truck.

It's behind that building.

And

all right.

So they turn around and there, lo and behold, is one FEMA truck with a giant satellite on the top of it.

It was a communications truck.

So we pull up.

And a lot of them are sitting under a tree at a card table with folding chairs,

you know, all in their FEMA vests.

And I looked at Congressman Corey Mills and I said, oh, brother, I don't think I can go talk to those people alone.

And he said, come on, I'll go.

So we went.

We have it on tape.

And Corey said afterwards, he's like,

pretty early on, you just shut up.

And he said, I could tell you just wanted to walk away.

And I'm like, oh, I was doing everything I can just to not go ape on those people.

So, yeah, I just,

I was listening to my mother.

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

But what they told us was such bullcrap.

I'll explain in 60 seconds first.

I think next week, you know, next week is the day of the atonement, next Saturday.

It's a really important day in the Jewish world.

And it is the day that you reflect on all of the things that you've done and you atone for them.

And you're like, God, give me another chance.

I think the Jews have Saturday covered let's tag team why don't we do something like that on Friday I I urge you to fast and pray with me next Friday

get everybody you know involved fast and pray for a forgiveness for what we've done as a country and our own mistakes clean that house out and then beg for his mercy beg for him to help he's there in North Carolina I am telling you without a doubt, he is there.

This thing gave me so much hope that no matter what happens, we are still America.

I don't know about the cities, but

I know in the small towns of America, we are still America.

So fast and pray with me next week, Day of Atonement.

And I think

the 11th is important for some reason.

And

I don't know, maybe just because we have to fast and pray.

But

it's also very dangerous in Israel because the High Holy Days are happening.

The Jewish people are facing attacks from all sides,

and

it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Thousands of

people are now refugees.

They found refuse in

fellowship-funded bomb shelters here recently.

But a lot of people just don't have their homes anymore.

They can't go back to their homes from last year.

So, you know, they're, you know, they're living hand to mouth, and we're trying to supply them with protective gear, flak jackets, helmets, reinforced ambulance.

It is so important that we stand with Israel as we are trying to take care of our own here as well.

Any donation, any donation would help.

Just support Israel by going to support IFCJ, that's the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

Supportifcj.org or call 888-488-IFCJ.

888-488-IFCJ or one word: supportifcj.org.

10 seconds, station ID.

So this

interview with

this interview with FEMA that was recorded,

it doesn't make me look real good because I'm, and we'll release it today, because I'm just very quiet because I really was just like,

don't, don't,

don't,

don't, whatever it is you're thinking, Glenn, don't.

And we went up to them, and they were sitting under this tree at a card table with folding chairs.

They were all in their FEMA vests.

And I had just been where people were moving water, moving food, trying to help people,

you know, like crazy stuff.

And so they,

so we went and they were way off in this parking lot all by themselves and sitting under a tree with some

folding chairs.

And, you know, but all dressed with the FEMA, you know, workers' outfits.

And I said,

hey, what are you guys doing doing here the guy said well you know we just got here last night and i said oh really yeah so we couldn't do anything when we got here last night so today's really our first day um but wow it took us a lot longer to get here than we thought and i'm thinking yeah like seven days longer than uh you would have thought and uh he said uh it's hard to get here No crap.

This is this is when I start shutting down.

Okay.

After he says, you know, it's really hard to get here.

I'm like, you're FEMA.

That should have been quite obvious to you.

And I said, so, so what, what are you, what are you doing here?

And he said, well,

as soon as we get the truck, you know, up and running,

and I noticed that the air conditioning was running inside the truck, which was good for them.

He said, as soon as we get this all up and running,

we're taking people's information right right now so we can, you know, that satellite up there just beams all the information right to Washington so we can get them registered so they can get some aid.

And I just was thinking, oh, good, just what people need: red tape and paperwork.

Yeah, because we'll get that check right to them in their mailbox.

They don't have any mailboxes.

But that wasn't the end of it.

It got

much,

much worse.

FEMA is on the ground in two places that we saw.

That one, which is doing nothing, and the other one where they've just built some showers.

Not for the people, but for the volunteers that are there to help.

But overall, it was a really good day.

I look for quality in my food.

Yeah, I do.

As well as a good price.

When you buy meat, you don't want the imported stuff at the grocery store.

And I've always looked at the little flag and went, okay, good, I'm supporting, you know, American farmers and ranchers.

That little flag is a government hoax.

That just means something happened to it here in America when it got off the ship.

It might have been wrapped.

It might have been cut here, but that's it.

So it's not a product of America.

I just want to point that out.

So if you really want to get the best American meat, you want to have it from America, you want to help the ranchers and our farmers here in America?

Congressman Corey Mills joins us in about a half hour.

If you don't know who this guy is, and you might not

because

he's always just busy doing things.

I mean, you know, I'll get a call from him and be like,

yeah,

I'm in the jungles of Vietnam.

We think we know where the POWs are, and we're just going to get them out.

He's just everywhere doing stuff.

He's like a real-life action hero, but he's also a congressman.

He's running

his campaign.

His campaign people are freaking out.

They're like, this is a close election, Corey.

You know, and he's like, the people in my district are okay.

They weren't hit by the hurricane.

They're okay.

I can't go to my maker and say, yeah, I could help these people, you know, in another state, but I had a campaign to run.

He said, I can't do it.

And so I told him yesterday, I don't know where I'm going to find time to do this, but I said.

Let me go campaign for you.

Let me just go do a speech or something for you while you're up here

because I believe in this guy.

This guy should shame every member of Congress, should shame every member of Congress.

The power of what one person can do when coupled with other people is absolutely amazing.

Don't ever count yourself out as, I can't do it.

Do you realize that this audience is playing a major role in a major historic disaster?

You are.

By giving to Mercury One, I can't tell you how many people I met and and they were like, We couldn't have done it without your audience.

We cannot do it without you.

You have no idea.

You know, all of the oxygen on every

county ambulance now is provided by this audience.

They ran, they blew through all of their supply.

They weren't prepared for this.

You know, nobody's prepared for something of this scale.

And they were like, We're out of oxygen.

We got oxygen.

We have pallets now of O2 that we flew in.

We're filling transport planes.

When I left the airport, one of our transport planes was flying down, I think, to Florida to pick up other supplies and flying back overnight.

It's remarkable.

And FEMA

is

despicable.

You know me if you've listened to this program for very long.

I don't like to use the word treason.

I really don't, because it's the only thing in the Constitution that spells out, you know, the punishment.

And I don't like calling people traitors,

and I won't today.

But I will tell you, a case could be made.

that there are a lot of people that are bordering on the line of treason.

Our country is being dismantled.

Our country is being torn apart.

FEMA has spent, let me see if I can get this exactly right.

I want to get these right.

FEMA has spent $1.4

billion

on immigrants, illegals, okay?

$1.4.2 billion

on rehousing, flying these illegals in without your knowledge.

we paid for all of it.

$174.2 billion.

Okay.

And how much?

Can I ask how much?

It was $750.

And in Hawaii, they got $700.

So $700 in Hawaii, $750.

But don't worry,

that's going to be very helpful.

They just lost everything.

It is,

it's embarrassing as a nation.

It is embarrassing.

By the way, the electric vehicle chargers, where they have put two,

that's $7.5 billion.

The high-speed internet, which didn't happen,

we spent $42.45 billion.

The high-speed internet thing didn't happen.

But they, you know, they've got, don't worry, on a surprisingly quiet hurricane season, they're out of money.

First of all, I'd like to remind the government, no, you're not.

You print money all the time.

This is the one time where you're like, gosh, guys, if we print more money, man, it'll just cause inflation.

It'll be really bad, really, really bad.

And besides, the printing presses are booked for the next month and a half because we're printing so much money for Iran and Ukraine.

Out of money.

Huh.

I, you know, I don't remember voting to bring all these illegals in and house them and feed them and give billions of dollars through most likely many corrupt NGOs that are wasting our money.

I don't remember that.

I don't remember voting.

You know what we should do?

We should go into other countries and find some people that want to come here and we'll just pay their way.

We'll find out who they are and then say, come to America.

Where do you want to go?

You want to go to Kansas City?

They got the Chiefs.

It's great.

You go to New York.

You know, some great little restaurants and bistros everywhere.

You're going to love it.

And it's a free ticket.

And then we'll set you up in a really nice hotel or ones that used to be really nice and free food and $2,500

just because you're so oppressed.

So oppressed.

I can't even take how oppressed you are.

So you get $2,500 and you get a free phone and you get a free phone and you get a free phone and $750

for these people who have been paying taxes, hardworking, regular people,

and you can't even fly a helicopter in to get people off their roofs.

And you show up a week late.

By the way, I want to thank President Biden for taking that aerial view in.

He just didn't want to disrupt anything.

And he only stopped our rescue helicopters from rescuing people for four hours.

So, you know, that was great.

Didn't piss the rescuers off at all.

At all.

So anyway, FEMA is there.

And

I said, so

why are you guys here?

We took a van.

There were 10 of us in this van.

And we were going back to the food distribution point.

And, you know, everybody's looking out the windows and seeing stuff.

And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on.

Turn around.

You guys see the FEMA truck?

Everybody.

I didn't see the FEMA truck.

Yeah, it's tucked back in the corner behind this, I don't know,

you know, Michaels that is closed.

And so we went into the

cops everywhere.

Food is on the other side, like a Lowe's, you know, garden shop.

And all the attention, when you drive in, all the attention is over there because people are going to get food

because they don't have any food.

But behind the Michaels

that's been closed, and I think next to the Chuck E.

Cheese,

which was so busy.

No, they were closed too,

was under a tree, this FEMA truck.

And I said, so,

what are you guys doing here?

Well,

we're getting everybody, you know, to sign up for the aid.

Hmm, okay.

All right um

they're they're you know the crowd is down there there's only one person at your table yeah I know but that's because we haven't really announced where we are yet and I'm thinking that's probably good

I said what do you mean and he said well

our flyers haven't arrived yet

So we're waiting for our own flyers that say, you know, FEMA is here.

I'm like, oh, flyers.

We didn't think of that flyer thing.

We just went, you know, to where everybody is.

And then we didn't need flyers, but I didn't say that.

At this point, I was like, don't say anything at all.

Don't say anything at all.

And

he said, well, we, you know, we just have to be where the people are.

And I said, that's good.

And I'm thinking,

that's not here.

You know, when do you move there?

And I said, so

you're doing this with the flyers.

And he said, no, we also uh you know, we're gonna tell the media and so you know, radio, television, it'll be everywhere.

And I thought, hmm,

I don't see a lot of people sitting down in their living rooms because their living rooms have washed four blocks down the street with their televisions in it.

Um, you know, maybe they have a little portable television that they just have to plug in.

Oh, nope, they don't have any power.

And I said, you know, they're probably not watching TV.

He said, but yeah, but the word will get around.

Okay, all right.

And he said, you know, and there's an app.

This is the greatest app.

This app will do everything.

And all they have to do is just download it on their phone.

And

Corey said, well, they, you know, they don't, they don't really have power to plug their phones in.

He said, yeah, but a lot of people can just go to their cars and plug their cars, you know, plug the phone into the car to charge it.

And

we pointed out to him, you mean the cars, like, right, turn around, see that river, see all the cars that are in the creek now that are destroyed?

You mean they're sitting in those cars?

Because they no longer have cars.

That's what was happening in my head.

I just said, hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

And

he said, but we have to be where the people are.

And I said, well, if the people don't come out, and he said, well, then we go door to door.

And I'm thinking, that's good because they don't have doors.

And I said, when do you do that?

And he said, well, that's above my pay grade.

You know, it's the government.

So, you know, I don't have that information.

Is there anybody here that does have that information?

Yeah, my boss.

Where's your boss sitting at the table?

No, uh-uh, in the air-conditioned truck right now.

She's in the air-conditioned truck.

Oh, good.

Can you maybe go get your boss?

You know, tell her, you know, she'll have to come out here where it's hot, you know, but she can go right back into the air-conditioned truck

where she can get away from all of these people.

And so she comes out.

She was a delightful lady.

And

we said, when you, he didn't know when you start going door to door.

And she looked at him and she said, we don't go door to door.

You don't go door to door.

No, we're here.

you know, where it's all happening.

And

I looked at Corey and Corey looked at me and we're like, it's not happening here.

This isn't where people are.

I mean, if you want to be a little closer to where people are going,

you should go where the food is.

Yeah, well, we were talking about that today.

Oh, okay, good, good, good.

And the truck doesn't really work yet,

but we're still gathering information because, oh, the relief that these people can get.

Oh, it's really, it's just amazing.

I

bet it is.

And then I just started to back away from this,

oh, I don't even know, murder scene.

It was just so ugly.

And I started backing away and Gorey looked at me and just smiled.

And he's like, thank you for your time.

And he said, boy, I've never seen you so quiet.

And I was like,

Don't have anything nice to say.

Don't say anything at all.

You don't want to know what I was thinking in my head.

It was so offensive.

But that was the FEMA in action.

I've got one more FEMA story, and we'll share that coming up.

First, let me tell you about another charity that actually does things, you know, because the government doesn't.

Jerry Padgett, Jr., enlisted in the U.S.

Navy, deployed many times to Iraq and Afghanistan.

He was on parole in Afghanistan, injured by an IED.

He suffered a spinal cord injury, a traumatic brain injury, audio and visual impairments.

And the government was like, thank you for your service.

And, you know,

you need some help.

Maybe we can give you some drugs, you know, at the VA.

You're going to have to wait because the illegals, you know, are in line right in front of you right now.

But they are, aren't they so brave?

Anyway,

this is when the Tunnel to Towers Foundation stepped in because we actually care about those people who have fought and died died or have been traumatically injured.

Thanks to people like you, Jerry and his family moved into a new smart home at the Foundation's Let Us Do Good Foundation in Florida, where he can live independently thanks to especially adaptive technologies.

Our fallen heroes, their families need help.

Tunnel to Towers is stepping up.

Nothing can repay the price of of freedom.

Nothing can repay what they've lost.

But your donation now can change the lives of those people who actually have made sacrifices for our communities and for our countries.

It is unbelievable that we have homeless veterans, but these immigrants, they're taken care of.

I'll tell you that right now.

And you get a phone, and you get a phone.

So I went to North Carolina yesterday on the ground in Asheville, and Jill Savage from Blaze News Tonight was with me.

And she was kind of doing the, you know, journalistic thing.

And

what did you come away with?

I'm with you.

It was one of the most incredible days of my life.

I'm glad that you said it because it definitely was for me.

It's so uplifting.

There's so much destruction.

Everybody knows that on the news.

But the hope that we came out of there with is great.

One of the signs that we saw, the community prayer, 4 p.m.

daily daily.

Oh, yeah.

Incredible.

But Mercury One, they keep saying Mercury One is the reason that we have supplies here in this town right now.

This is you.

You are an amazing audience.

And we are going to be doing a donation drive here all weekend long.

Mercury one right here at the building.

They're looking for more bottled water, more suitcases, more camping equipment, Tupperware, emergency food kits.

It's all online on Mercury One, Instagram, and Twitter.

They need more stuff.

As Corey Mills said, this isn't a days and weeks problem.

This is a months and years problems.

They're in the mountain.

Many of these people are in the mountains, and it's going to start getting cold, and they have no electricity, no heat, nothing.

They said space heaters are going to be a big deal in like about three weeks.

We're going to get into what they really need.

And Mercury One, unless you can donate some of these big items, Mercury One will buy all of it at a discount and get it to them.

We just need your help.

MercuryOne.org, donate now.

I want to talk to you a little bit about

Good Ranchers.

Good Ranchers, you know, you're doing the raw milk thing.

This is the best American meat from ranchers that, you know, raise this, grass-fed.

I mean, it's really good beef.

Also, good chicken, really good.

Moist, moist chicken.

And

applewood bacon.

Can't tell you anything about that other than it's yummy.

And wild-caught salmon.

hopefully we are celebrating a Trump victory,

you'll get either the chicken or the bacon or the Angus ground beef or whatever it is that you decide, you'll get up to $1,200 in savings.

It's a new day, a time to ride.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment

and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Glenn, hello, America, if that is your real name.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

It's Friday,

and we've got a lot to share from the hurricane site.

I was on the ground yesterday in Asheville, North Carolina, and I saw amazing things.

What I saw was the American spirit alive and well.

I didn't see the government there, but I saw Americans there, and their spirit is not broken.

It was amazing and so hopeful.

We'll talk about it here coming up in just a second.

First,

let me take a little polish off of that hope.

Economic collapse is coming.

I don't know when, but it's coming to a country near you you soon.

I urge you, please, if you've been thinking about, you know, are we going to have any money left?

What about all of my stuff in 401k?

You know, if I have got an IRA, I've got any kind of savings for retirement, what do I do?

Please consider 10% of it in gold or silver.

The world always goes to the hedge against inflation.

It's not the hedge against, it's the hedge against insanity at this point.

Please, gold is going up quickly.

It's what, what is it today, Stu?

You know, it's got to be still around 2,700.

By the way, at the beginning of the year, it was under 2,000.

Please call Lear Capital today and get your, you know,

free wealth protection guide.

10% is what I recommend, but

I'm an alcoholic DJ, so what do I know?

Don't listen to me.

Listen to yourself, however.

800-957-GOLD.

Do your own homework.

Just do the opposite, what a government says.

Do your own homework.

Pray about it.

And if it's right for you, make the call.

800-957-GOLD.

Call them today, 800-957-GOLD.

Corey on yet?

Okay.

He's probably, I don't know, rescuing somebody.

Corey Mills, who is still in Asheville.

We're going to talk to him in just a second.

He's a congressman from Florida.

By the way,

I would,

he's the best

congressman I think I've ever met.

First of all, he is big time Constitution.

He was quoting stuff from the Constitution.

I'm like, yeah, yeah, I know right where that is.

That's a section of Order to B.

But he really knows it and is a

wild supporter of it.

And he's also has a servant's heart.

He's running a campaign right now.

And, you know,

it's a close election.

And he's like, I can't go to my maker and say,

you know, Lord,

I could have helped all those people in the hurricane, but

I had to run a campaign.

So that's the kind of guy he is.

So if you're living in his district in Florida, I can't tell you I've not been, and we've worked with him for a long time, but this is the first time we met.

I've not been this impressed by any politician.

Rarely, rarely.

I can name like

two people, and I'm being generous, two people,

and now three with Corey.

Anyway, Jill Savage from Blaze News Tonight was with me yesterday, and we want to go over a couple of things.

You felt the same thing that I felt.

Absolutely.

The people there in North Carolina were exactly what we needed, right?

We've seen the devastation on the news, but the people are what is going to make the difference and pull them through.

And it was 9-12.

You remember what we were like on 9-12?

Yes.

It was just like that.

Anybody who's wondered, are we going to pull back together if there's a yes?

The answer is.

And it felt so good.

It felt so good to feel that.

Can I share one of the stories that one of the cousins or grandkids told us yesterday when we were picking grandma up getting married to

the helicopter?

They were telling us, okay, so our neighbors, everybody's in trouble, right?

One of these guys, the roof blew off and somebody had a serious head injury.

This is cool.

So what did we do?

We grabbed a ladder, put the person on the ladder, walked three miles to the firehouse, and then there was some wilderness EMT there and a bunch of good old boys.

And they were like, you know what?

We'll do whatever we can.

Bring them in.

And they were problem solving left and right.

That story was amazing.

This guy had a, he walked out to check the animals

on this farm.

And the roof, I think, from another house blew off and hit him in the head.

And he was laying out, major head injury.

And

somebody else saw it happen, and he runs out.

And they carry him three miles in the storm at the height of the storm.

I mean, and everybody seemed to know each other.

It's a weird place.

It is so cool.

Honestly,

when we landed the helicopter, there was this big, beautiful horse that was up in the woods, and it was just kind of staring at us on this mountainside.

And

I mean, it...

It should have had one horn in the because it was like, am I seeing a mythical creature here?

This place is so magical.

and we landed and these two old guys come walking up the street and they're like how can we help you you know helicopter just landed in in the back field how can we help you well we're looking for you know 3501 black rock or whatever

I don't know where that is I think it's around the corner who are you trying to help gave him the name oh yeah I know

you know what was the the guy who was in the other field well so then we were walking trying to find where this house was.

And we just walked by this one guy and he's like, y'all need a ride?

His name's Jim.

And we're like, yeah, Jim.

He's like, that's my truck right there.

Get in.

Let's go.

So here we are.

Glenn Beck is sitting on the back of the truck.

And we're just rolling through town trying to find whatever house this is that we can go get the lady to med back her on the helicopter.

We go in, and I mean, everybody was helping each other.

Everybody knew, you know, what was going on.

and

there's no coordination.

They don't even, I mean, the cell service there, not good.

Not good.

And then, and then word gets out that Glenn Beck has landed in a field in a helicopter.

And Stu, you can only imagine that the people are like, I'm sorry, what?

Who's who's in my field right now?

And we were about to take off.

And there was this one woman who is just, she's like, this is my one chance.

I am going.

And she just bolts out there and runs and gets a picture with you.

And

it was such a great day.

It was really great.

We have Corey Mills, Congressman Corey Mills vote Corey Mills

hello Congressman how are you

I'm good how are you good good

listen uh we

had to go rescue some people so we didn't get a chance to see everything we wanted to see but I want to put life in front of our needs that's fine

but we didn't get to chimney rock and and are you going to be able to make it up there today to find out some things for us I will.

I'm going to be heading to Chimney Rock.

And also, the questions that I want to ask with regards to

kind of the comments that's been made that the federal government's looking to essentially just bulldoze that entire area.

But I haven't heard anything on whether or not they plan to rebuild that area.

That starts to tie into things that we've heard in the past about lithium resource capabilities and also different assets in the region.

But I will say that it's a bit bizarre.

You know, this being the fifth day for me in Western North Carolina, and thanks to Mercury One, and I'll tell you the amazing veteran-led charity

operations, it is incredible that we're now going to be dropping over 10 tons in the last five days as of today.

So we will have over 20,000 pounds of supplies that we've moved in the last five days before FEMA and their single communication truck, where they're claiming that you can just go watch on the media to find their location.

I guess the houses and TV are out.

Oh, my God.

Have they even lifted a finger?

The blood was shooting out of my eyes.

I saw your face that, Glenn, the minute she said they watch it on the media, I look at your face and I was like, if I wasn't here right now.

Oh my gosh, I would have, I mean, blood was shooting out of my eyes.

And all I could think of is my mom.

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

And I just, I mean, I think you saw me back up a little bit because I was like,

I actually did.

I can't take it.

I can't take it.

So anyway.

And at first, when you backed up, I just kind of like, I stood there for a minute and I started to slowly back up as well because I was like, maybe he's wanting to leave.

Maybe I'm, I don't know.

And then I realized that, no, you're just creating distance so that you didn't lose it.

So, you know, what was so frustrating is when we got to the FEMA truck, which was pathetic, absolutely pathetic.

And they came in like conquering heroes.

You know, we're here now.

You know, it's like, it's like New Yorkers going to any small town in America.

All right, you're safe i'm ready to be your mayor i'm from new york it was like that glenn you found this truck like a where's waldo pipe i mean it was in the middle of nowhere away from the actual and i'm going to use their term the masses

and like it just was comical to me that we talked to the first guy and he's like yeah we're going to get ready to go for day-to-day door-to-door operations when oh that's above my pay grade well let me get you your supervisor and then you talked to the supervisor glenn and she says Well, we have no plan to actually do door-to-door.

That's not our job in our department.

Crazy.

It's just, it was so frustrating.

And the thing I noticed, and this is why I feel like this was 9-12.

Do you know what that day felt like, Corey?

You remember 9-12, 2001?

Yeah, it felt like that.

And it gave me so much hope because this is just the beginning of these are the birth pangs of things to come.

And all of America is going to need

help, and it's not going to come.

And

I'll tell you, I just felt so hopeful, so incredibly hopeful being there.

But the one thing I did,

I heard a lot of, and I don't know if you can tell the story of,

I think it was FEMA that came into where we've set up a clinic, one of the

veteran-led, they set up a clinic.

Can you tell that story?

Yeah, so we've set up multiple distribution center areas, especially around Asheville.

And Adam Smith, who's a former Special Forces guy,

whose ex-wife and child actually lives in and around the Asheville area,

you know, when we first started this day one, it was literally a small overhang of supplies.

And if you go there now, it's the largest distribution area in the entire western North Carolina area.

And we had set up clinics as well.

And there's kind of this Med Bay clinic.

And to your point about the conquering Romans that are walking in, they were like, okay, we're here now.

We're going to take your supplies.

And you actually don't have the ability to operate here because you're not operating under a certified medical license of North Carolina.

Now,

take a moment to think about that.

They haven't been there for a week.

We've been treating people, getting medevacs into Johnson City, like the gentleman who was having cardiac arrest, the woman who was showing signs of bone disease and hypertension.

or the person that you grappled down like some i don't know captain america and went and rescued off the top of a mountain yeah anyway go ahead doing some good holy stuffs yeah but we've been dropping i mean even up in areas like pensacle north carolina which is one of the most isolated areas up in the mountains at like a 5 000 plus foot level um which i know you referred to it as the you know smoky hills they're now the smoky mountains we've now shown that no i said yesterday i can't make fun of them anymore i can't i've actually seen that.

They're good.

I could live here.

Yeah, I could in a heartbeat.

Anyway.

Think about this, though.

So we're treating people.

We're getting the key medications that they need for type one diabetics.

We're getting oxygen for people who don't have the ability to resupply because there is no resupply.

We have more oxygen in our aid area than Mission Hospital had said that they actually had.

And so we're operating, helping save lives.

And here comes FEMA.

Oh, you can't do that.

You can't remain on this location to treat people because because you don't have a North Carolina medical license.

Unbelievable.

And

what was said to them?

Basically to piss off.

I mean, this is a team who's literally, these are their family members.

These are people who are proper veterans.

And they basically said, oh, you don't like it?

Well, you can leave, or we can just relocate our clinic.

Right.

I mean, you know,

it's like glimmer eyesight.

Yeah, these

guys are,

I mean, this town and the veterans, I have to tell you,

good comes out of everything.

God uses everything, even the worst, to do good and to do his will.

You know, if you served in Afghanistan and you saw how that ended, that may, all of that may have been to prepare you for the times that are coming so you can help your fellow man in your own country.

These veterans have come out and I got to tell you, they just took charge and they knew exactly what they were doing.

I mean, they're running an airport, you know, and the FAA is like, Pete Buddha, Judge said, you got to shut this down.

Yeah,

we're not going to.

It's fantastic.

Just fantastic.

I would love to see Mayor Pete come out and tell Adam Smith, who looks like he's a professional wrestler or, you know, defensive back at about 340 pounds and 6'4.

I'd like for him to come out and tell him that he can't continue to save lives.

Yeah, he looks more like Stretch Armstrong.

I don't think he'll have time to come out there, Glenn, because he's still nursing.

All right, hang on just a second.

We're going to come back with more with Corey Mills, Congressman from Florida.

He is running again.

He is not in his district campaigning, much to his campaign staff's chagrin,

because it is a close election.

But his people in his district are okay from the hurricane, and he can't, he's got to, this is who he is.

And so vote Corey Mills.

All right, let me tell you about the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

Where will the situation on the ground be in Israel tomorrow?

What's going to be happening?

How about later today?

How about, you know, what time is it now?

The answer is probably the same as mine.

I have no idea what's coming.

But I know things are bad there.

I know Hezbollah, Iran, they're evil.

Well, I shouldn't say that.

I mean, remember the sex slave that ISIS had taken and then sold to Hamas, and then Hamas sold her into slavery

for just like 10 years.

She was released yesterday, but, you know, slavery happens, you know?

Anyway, thousands of Israelis took refuge in the fellowship-funded bomb shelters from IFCJ to stay safe the other night from those missiles Iran was firing.

Your support of Israel and support of her people is so critical right now.

They need all kinds of things.

They need flak jackets and helmets and reinforced ambulances.

888-488-IFCJ, 888-488-IFCJ, or you can go online to supportifcj.org.

That's supportifcj.org.

10 seconds station ID.

Jill Savage here,

talking with Congressman Corey Mills.

And

we saw an interesting side of Glenn Beck yesterday.

Everybody knows him as the big Hall of Fame radio broadcaster, but he turned into a cameraman yesterday for Corey.

That's how you know the hierarchy has changed and that Corey.

Well, what I heard was that because of my height at a normal 5'9,

that's not normal.

That is completely normal.

I had to measure you because

you had to be at least this high.

Yeah.

He was on Laura Ingram last night.

Little did she know I was the cameraman.

And

everybody turned around and they saw him doing Laura Ingram.

And then they looked at me holding the camera and they were like, this is a sight we just don't see.

But anyway, it was an honor to do it for you.

So, we want to talk a little bit about some of the things that they need, and

the things that we

made a lot of promises yesterday.

So,

I know this audience will come through, but they need space heaters.

I just got off the phone with JP, who's at the airport.

I think 65 or 69 generators were just landed at the airport, so you have more power.

we need refrigeration

a lot of big expensive stuff

what else what else do do you guys need

volunteers I'll tell you I mean volunteers are a really big thing again these pieces of equipment and these supplies and these much-needed non-perishables medicines

they don't get moved on their own.

And so having that veteran base is great, but this is not an hours or a days long

catastrophe.

This is a weeks and months long.

And we have to keep in mind, we're in October.

When you look at some of those higher lying areas, in the coming weeks, it's going to get cold very quickly.

So even blankets, even thinking about sleeping bags, even thinking about this, you know, just volunteering your time, because it's not always about money.

It's also, you know, kind of like the preambles when we talked about the founding of this republic, where it was to donate, you know, and sacrifice your time, your treasures, and even your life.

I mean, that's really the American spirit.

And you said something yesterday that really struck a chord with me, Glenn.

And I want the viewers to listen to this as well, which is it was your meeting with Billy Graham.

And you talked about the idea of, okay, so what happens after Billy Graham?

Who's the next Billy Graham?

And his comment to you was, is that I think he had made the comment that I think that God is tired of Billy Graham.

He said he's tired of me getting all the credit for his work.

Yeah.

There you go.

Yeah.

but he said it's gonna be millions yeah he said it's gonna be

he said it's gonna be people who just hear a call and they may not they'll they'll think i'm not qualified or i can't do that or what what difference is that going to make i don't even know where to begin but they will obey him and he said this time it won't be one person it's not going to be a big star it's not going to be anything it's going to be individuals and it will make a mosaic in the end that everyone will look at and say only the god of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob could have pulled this off.

That's what I felt just miles away from where he told me that.

It's amazing.

Amen.

Amen.

Corey, thank you so much.

God bless.

Glenn Beck.

All right, when it comes to being prepared for disasters, there's no place, no time like the present.

If, God forbid, you find yourself in a situation where food is hard to come by, you'll be glad you got ready for it in advance.

And I will tell you, it's your responsibility.

No help is coming for you.

No help is coming.

When things get bad, no help is coming.

You are going to have to work together as a community.

You have to start talking to your neighbors and prepare together so you can batten down the hatches when things get, and you'll be able to help others.

Right now, To help out the victims of Hurricane Helene, my Patriot Supply is donating 10% of all the proceeds to Mercury One.

This ends this weekend, so please call or go to mypatriotsupply.com, get your four-week emergency food kit.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

I met God's Army yesterday, and none of them were in uniform.

Well, they did have guns, but only to make sure that everything was protected.

These are people that have a huge servant's heart and are just doing it because God's telling them, help, and they can, and they are.

The head of what I would call is the, well, of really the operations on the ground.

And

I guess the

chief of the Hillbilly Air Force is on the phone with us now, Adam Smith.

Hi, Adam.

Good morning, Glenn.

How are you?

How was your flight back?

It was great.

It was great.

Thank you for, I mean, you and your people are amazing.

And please give shout outs to anyone that needs the credit.

I mean, especially every veteran on the ground.

These guys are making all the difference.

All the difference.

I'll do my best.

There's so many.

We'll start with Charlie Mike.

That's a veteran nonprofit that's on the ground.

That's working with us.

He sent us, which is a nonprofit ministry that sent personnel.

The Free Burma Rangers are on site that are helping out.

There's a company called Aerolux.

They're on the ground.

They've given us three dedicated air assets for some time.

These guys are good.

I talked to them yesterday.

They're great.

They're great.

And I got to,

I wish I had been keeping a running list of all the different companies that have helped donate and drive through and drop off and move supplies.

Another organization is called CCRT.

They sent a team down here to help us with the logistics of receiving supplies and moving supplies out.

I mean, I got to tell you, Glenn, when you say God's army, it makes me, I've been more emotional the last week than I think I have been in the last year.

It's moving.

It's absolutely moving.

I have to tell you, you know, the old saying, the mountain comes to Mohammed.

This is the the mountain.

We're talking to this man.

He is a mountain of a man to think of you emotional.

To think of you anything other than a giant mountain that just gets things done is pretty incredible, Adam.

I have to wish you congratulations.

I think it was on Wednesday you proposed to your girlfriend.

You know, there in the mud.

She's got quite a catch.

I'm definitely punching above my weight box, my gosh.

We had a plan.

Everything was ready to go.

We were speaking at a veterans nonprofit in Texas on Friday, and we diverted to come straight here

because of my daughter and my ex-wife were trapped in the middle of the mountains, and we didn't have any communications with them for over 36 hours.

And so

I figured, you know, why not?

Now's the time.

Let's just do this, and let's just make it official.

I talked to, I think it was the state trooper chaplain yesterday when we landed,

and I said, how can we help you?

And he said, prayers, he said, for our state troopers.

He said, they've seen things

that, you know, nobody should see.

And their homes were wiped out.

And he said,

they're really going to need help spiritually to get through some of these things.

And I think a lot of people do.

So if you can give to Mercury One,

you know,

Adam can testify, 100% of all the money raised goes right directly to the people who are helping the people and none of them are getting paid

and

and it is a very efficient organization please mercury1.org Jill aren't they in aren't they doing a fundraiser or they're doing donations a donation drive here

right across the street at the studio at AJE they're gonna be just getting everything they can on a truck sometime next week so they need donations if you're in the area from today today through Monday to drop off here.

And all of the donations that they're looking for in Irving, Texas, it's all on Instagram and X.

There's an entire list of things that these people need because it's so hard to get supplies in and out.

We really do need the helicopters that are supplied by Mercury One.

I'm going to tell my wife today she's not going to like this and I think she will probably say no.

But you know, we have this house.

My kids are no longer, you know, in the house and it's just too stupid to have this house.

I'm thinking about selling the house to buy a rescue helicopter or one of those transport planes because we're going to need them.

All over the country, we're going to need them.

And those helicopters have made all the difference in the world.

Adam,

you said that you needed Jet A fuel, you needed diesel, you needed gasoline.

There is a shell station right across from where you guys and the helicopters and everything else are stationed.

I would like to put out for any oil and gas company a call

for a few tanks of gas.

And I'm talking like 5,000 gallons.

If you just park a tanker or three

where the helicopters are coming in and where everybody needs fuel, that would be great.

Shell, you're right across the street.

If you can help, and I will give you the promotion for it, whichever company can come in and provide this, we're burning through fuel like crazy, especially with, I don't know if you know this, Adam, but another 65 or 69 generators just landed

in, I think,

Greenville, so it should be on the way now.

We just spoke with Congressman Corey Mills earlier, and when I talked to him an hour or so ago, he was telling me that they were in the process of loading up all of those generators and getting them on the birds.

And we can put them to good use.

Yeah, it's kind of crazy, Glenn, just one, the amount of supplies that we've received and the amount of time it's taken those supplies to get to us directly.

We started having supplies rolling in real time Sunday.

And, you know, it's even crazier to think Saturday morning at 8 a.m., 8.30 a.m.

or so with a gentleman.

His name's Aaron Stepp.

He's a really, really good guy.

He owns his own helicopter.

He owns his own business out of Burlington.

to, he was able just, again, by the grace of God and really, really awesome people, land on Saturday morning.

And myself and Aaron and his helicopter affected the first civilian rescue in the area by air.

So that was Saturday morning at 8.30 to 9 a.m.

We were able to make that happen.

And in the process of doing that, when I landed, my beautiful daughter just came, she came running through a field barefoot like this little wild girl.

And her mom was standing there.

And the whole community came out.

And they hadn't heard anything since Thursday night at about 10 p.m.

There was no power, no communications, no water, no access.

And all of that area was completely inaccessible Saturday morning.

And the first piece of communication from the outside world that got into them was when we landed.

And we immediately recognized, you know, there's something else going on here.

People need communications.

And how do we facilitate making that happen?

And

again,

just by the grace of God, we started getting Starlinks to come in.

We started happies happies dropping in.

Elon Musk, I have to tell you, Elon Musk is truly remarkable.

He is providing free service and free satellite in Ukraine, in Brazil, and now here in America.

That guy, I mean, I feel bad for him.

He should not have to bear the burden of all of these things with the attacks that come on him.

You know, I'm willing to...

put some money up, Elon,

and

buy some of these things.

If you'll give the free service,

I'll help.

I mean, I know you're the richest man in the world, and you probably don't need it, but I feel bad that you're carrying this burden all by yourself.

And they were there yesterday, were they not?

In fact, they are.

I still have

a gentleman from SpaceX that's here, Mike Coriela is his name.

Elon specifically, Mike was like, man, we got to do this.

We got to go out there.

And Elon said, yes, do it.

Go out here.

And since he's been on the ground, he's helped facilitate power packs to come into the area,

some really heavy-duty generators that can come into the air to supply power to large areas.

And, you know, just so happens that

as soon as the generator came in and got hooked up,

the grid power popped up.

So last night at about 11 p.m., we had grid power pop up, but we've backed up our operations center and we're offering the opportunity to back up other locations.

That way, we know it's going to be intermittent.

Power is going to go out.

We're going to have rolling blackouts because they're still doing so much work on the power grid to get it back up again.

But just let's, I'll praise Elon one more step.

Not only has he facilitated all of these things, but he's also sent

one of his number one guys to our location to support operations and make certain that everything is being taken care of with regards to power and power facilitation and internet connectivity and cell phone connectivity with

Starlink via SpaceX.

Adam,

you were the guy that they said, by the way, the generators are coming in from McKibben Power Sports donated all of these generators.

Thank you for that.

Were you the guy that said we have to shut down this Hilo area?

The government came in and said shut it down?

Was that you?

Yeah, we had a conversation with an individual that

had federal connection that said that we likely were going to have to shut down um and uh we politely told the gentleman that we weren't going to do it and that we were going to continue doing what we were going to do yeah that's weird because those weren't any of the words that i heard uh yesterday um

mayor pete came out and said you have to stop using drones to front to find stranded victims uh which is crazy absolutely crazy how have drones played a role the helicopters that they wanted shut down and the drones i mean that's how you're finding people people.

I got to tell you, yeah, look, look, I had a conversation, and I had a conversation with an individual who is doing a whole lot of coordination

at the county and state level, and I won't give away his name.

He came to us and he specifically stated that because of the operation that we have running right now and because of the support of other operations in the area, the civilian assets that have been moving supplies in and out of this region have kept the entire region up and running.

They haven't had to touch one of their emergency supplies up to this point because of the civilian assets that are in this area.

And with

other air assets getting shut down right now, based on our conversation yesterday, we're starting to get more HELOS diverted to us in order for us to continue to facilitate operations.

Yeah, you know, can I just ask you, aren't there quite a few military bases in North Carolina?

There are.

There are.

And

I'll tell you that I can tell you, because

I've shook their hands,

we have a lot of guys that are dedicating their time.

Oh, no, no, no.

No, wait, hang on just a second.

I'm not talking about the military people.

I'm talking about command and above.

Why aren't those assets of planes?

Why aren't the helicopters out rescuing people?

What happened?

Well,

I know of military assets that got into the area on,

I think, late Monday, early Tuesday.

And I do know that there was one C5 galaxy that landed at Asheville with a bunch of supplies, but that's all the information I have.

I've seen Blackhawks flying around, and I've seen some Chin Ups flying around, and I know that those guys have been putting in some solid effort.

Again, you know, you and I both know that it comes down to command effort from higher authority.

Oh, I know.

Command effort from higher authority dictates those assets, where they go and how they're utilized.

The only issue that I have is, in general, the timeline it takes for them to show up.

We've been running supplies since Saturday.

We've been running supplies since the water just began to recede.

Local fire departments immediately went into rescue operations to get people out immediately.

I know of a medical EVAC that took place of

a wilderness first responder.

that had a medical evac in the middle of the hurricane.

They strapped someone on a ladder, and that person and another person person not only swam through floodwaters, but trekked this person out of the mountains.

We met them yesterday.

You weren't with us.

We met them.

We met the people that were taking this person on a, they didn't have a stretcher.

They used a ladder and walked three miles.

We met them.

Yeah.

Crazy.

Crazy.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

God bless these people, man.

They are salt of the earth, rock solid.

I would live, I mean, it's most beautiful place, one of the the most beautiful places I've been in America.

I would live there just because of the people in a heartbeat.

It is such a great place.

Adam, thank you for everything.

And,

you know, I know we made a lot of promises yesterday, but I know this audience and you will get the supplies you need.

Thank you so much.

Down and taking the time to actually see what was going on and really

challenging what's happening at higher levels.

Without that sort of challenge and without that sort of overhead cover, we couldn't keep doing what we're doing.

We're very grateful for you.

God bless you.

Thank you.

Today is a day that you can make an important decision.

Do you keep your current cell phone plan, you know, the one where you shell out big money every month to a big mobile corporation doning that money to leftist causes?

Or do you switch to Patriot Mobile, which charges way less and shares your values?

I don't know.

Choice seems pretty simple to me because I see Patriot Mobile, they've got an action side of them, not related to Patriot Mobile, that Patriot Mobile donates to to be able to help us elect the right people in school boards and

even, you know,

all statewide elections.

They're not involved in any federal election.

I'll tell you that right now.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

I hope that

you are feeling

the hope that you have given me and this whole area in North Carolina and Georgia and Tennessee, because we're on the ground in there too.

I just have been focusing on Asheville, the hardest hit.

And I have to tell you,

I just know we're going to be okay no matter what happens because I saw it.

How many times have we said, will we come together if there's a giant tragedy?

Would we come together?

The answer is yes.

Yes.

This was a very Democratic town.

I don't think it is anymore, but it was very Democratic.

And nobody's asking, you know, who'd you vote for?

There was no politics in this at all.

And people came together.

And that is honestly because of you.

This situation would be vastly different without this audience.

You have done it again.

And if you'd like to be part of a movement, just go to mercury1.org.

Now, let me tell you about Home Title Lock.

Now, look, with everything going on in the world right now,

Home Title Lock cannot protect you from FEMA.

Okay, that's they get the best.

They're the ones who I think are going to steal my house.

Yes, yes, I know.

They may very well do that.

But what they can do is protect you from all sorts of online fraud.

And this is a big thing that's going on right now.

You know, I've had credit cards numbers taken, and they've charged everything from one time was a pizza in Phoenix at a Papa John's.

And then another time, an incredible night at a concert and clubs in Miami, all on my cards.

My cards were able to turn that over.

It was a couple thousand dollars in that case.

This particular situation can be hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Your equity can be gone.

Home title fraud is real.

It's hitting people all over the country.

Go to hometitalock.com and protect yourself.

If you use the promo code Blaze, they're going to send you a complete scan of your home's title and your first 30 days of triple lock home title protection are free right now.

If you're into wine and wildlife, this is your invitation to Adelaide, Australia.

Swim with seals at sunrise, sip chiraz at sunset, and in between, whoa, a koala.

Wait, how many wine regions?

18?

Is that a wallaby or a baby kangaroo?

Of course, I'd love to try wine from some of the oldest vines on the planet.

Come sip and see all South Australia has to offer on United, the only airline to fly non-stop from the US to Adelaide.

Got no room

to compromise.

We gotta stay together

if we're gonna survive.

Stay the strength

and hold the line.

It's a new day, a time to ride.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

We're glad you're here.

Well, the port strike is over.

And yes, I'm going to say it.

I'm going to name the man responsible for that.

Who saved America?

Joe Biden?

Yeah.

We'll get to that in 60 seconds.

First, make no mistake, the left is on the attack when it comes to the issue of abortion.

They're not just interested in protecting the right to murder babies uh they're not there honestly the the kamala and the

the cult of blood uh that is not reasonable on abortion they're not like saying well let's i mean you know maybe 12 weeks eight weeks no no no no no they want it up and to and including birth and don't believe that they don't.

It's already, you know that Kamala Harris rejected that law?

When she was in the Senate, she voted against a law that was keeping babies alive after a botched abortion at birth.

She voted against that.

So don't, don't, don't play this game.

What you can do to make a difference is A, vote.

B,

you can help with pre-born.

Pre-born is this amazing group of people that actually care about the babies and moms, and they have figured out that compassion is what changes everything.

Christ-like attitude.

So they provide an ultrasound for women.

This is something that will is really likely doubles the chance of survival of that baby when moms hear the heartbeat and see the ultrasound.

Then they advocate not just for the baby's life before born, but they advocate for mom and the baby afterwards.

They help them for two years after the child is born.

Donate securely now.

Dial pound250, say the keyword baby, donate what you can.

It's $28 for an ultrasound.

Pound250 keyword baby or go to preborn.com slash Beck.

That's preborn.com slash Beck sponsored by Preborn.

All right, let me start with

the name of the person that is responsible for breaking the back of the strike.

Now, I'm glad they moved it down.

You know, they just held off.

All right, we're going to hold off till after the election and just about five days before the swearing in of the, oh, it's going to work out well.

So, but we don't have that on the plate to add to the stress of America, at least right now.

And that is because of one man and one man only.

Ron DeSantis.

Ron DeSantis came out yesterday and said, yeah, I'm going to call out the National Guard

because we're not going to be held hostage.

So National Guard's going to go in and they'll open the ports.

We'll open the ports for Florida so we can get things and supplies in here.

National Guard will load it.

Oh, my gosh, I love you.

I mean, if it wasn't for the icky sex, Ron, I mean, I would be gay in a heartbeat.

Seriously, I just love you.

Look how accepting you are.

We want to talk about diversity on this show.

A gay Radio Hall of Fame member right there.

We got it.

If it wasn't for the icky sex, yes.

Yes.

So, anyway,

I'm sorry.

I've got an appointment later on this afternoon to burn some books in a hood.

But

this guy is amazing.

I think Donald Trump should announce a few members of a cabinet, and he should do it right now.

He should announce that Elon Musk has agreed to be, you know, the cost-cutting czar.

It seems like they floated that one and it's been discussed.

It's not official yet.

He needs to announce that

RFK, Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk, and I've extended the invitation

to run FEMA and close FEMA down

and give the state the ability, the state's ability to actually keep that money themselves and prepare for disaster, I'd like Ron DeSantis to run FEMA.

I think he would be unbelievable.

His term is up in 26.

I mean, I'd wait for that.

Would you wait for that?

I'd wait.

Some of those ideas are great that you just mentioned.

So, yeah, I agree.

You just can't get past your hatred for RFK, can you?

You just hate him so much.

Because he jilted you.

He said, I'm not interested in that icky gay sex with Stu.

Okay, please stop talking.

Not even about just this topic, all topics.

If we're going to put a lifelong Democrat into the administration in some way, I would far prefer Tulsi Gabbard.

That would be my stance on that particular issue.

Just, God forbid, just for the wives of the other people in the cabinet.

I mean, God, please.

We all know he's a Kennedy.

So we all know.

But what I will say is, I mean, I don't know, honestly, to be honest about it.

Really, really love Ron DeSantis.

Really think I would like him to do something more important than

that's fine.

Whatever.

I'm just saying just one.

I'm just saying.

I think his job right now is great.

And I could see him with higher office, certainly down the road.

Right.

And I'd give him any job.

I wouldn't want to pull him out of Florida to run.

No, no, no.

I said his term is up in 26.

I would give that man any job that he wanted.

What do you want to run?

When you're done with governor, what do you want to run?

And involve him.

But he is, when it comes to disasters, that guy, excuse the expression, is an ass kicker.

Yeah.

I mean, he's amazing.

And like, that's what I feel like used to be a really, something we really prized that cross partisan lines.

Like the just the general competence in times of stress used to be the thing that, I mean, I think that was one of the things that happened with Bush, where like he was seen, I think largely unfairly, for botching the Katrina stuff.

And it was more damaging to him, not because liberals turned against him.

They were all calling him a terrorist the whole time.

And that he said he was responsible for 9-11.

Yeah, right.

And he hated black people.

He was letting them die.

That's right.

I mean, if you want to make that case, we can make that case about white people, but I'm not going to.

George Bush doesn't care about black people, if you remember that, from Kanye West, who has had quite a journey since that particular statement.

When the media loved him back then when he was saying those things.

But what happened with Bush, with Katrina, and a couple of other things in that area of time was that it felt like he was incompetent.

And his own supporters and moderates, kind of independent voters, started to bail on him.

Right.

And then, of course, the war going poorly sort of added on to that.

But like, that was a, a, a really central thing of what we expected and wanted out of politicians.

Just, you know, like, yeah, you have opinions.

We all know you have opinions.

We might not like your policies.

But in those moments, are you going to be the person who steps up and gets the job done?

DeSantis has done that every single time.

Every time.

Every time.

I wish I would have snapped a picture of him, you know, he was holding a press conference and behind him were what appeared to be miles of utility trucks.

And he's like, we're ready.

I was just like, yeah, you are.

You are.

You know, and, and he believes in the 10th Amendment.

Oh,

oh, so the unions are going to shut down our ports.

Well, no, I'm the governor of Florida.

And if the federal government won't do anything, I'm calling out our National Guard and we'll keep those ports open.

That's the reason they folded.

They lost all of their power in negotiation.

They lost all of it.

So it was, thank you, Ron DeSantis, for saving the country on that one.

Can I ask you, Glenn, about, and this is lower priority than the stuff you've been talking about when it comes to your trip to North Carolina yesterday and this whole region.

But there is a political concern here, right?

We've got an election that's a month away.

I have to tell you, may I tell you a quick story on this?

Yeah, sure.

A couple of days ago, we rescued a woman who was up, two women that were up on a mountain, and

they were flagging the helicopter.

And we were taking somebody else to the hospital, I think.

And so the other helicopter was called, and they came, and they picked him up.

They brought him down from the mountain.

They were out of food and everything.

And one of the first things they said was,

before we go back up,

we need to vote.

Can you take us?

I mean,

these people are pissed.

They are pissed.

If North Carolina does not

go hard for Trump, I'd be shocked.

Really?

Yeah.

They're pissed.

I mean, they are pissed.

That's a big part of the reason I'm asking.

Yeah.

Because, you know, this is a key swing state.

I

think

Donald Trump, if he doesn't win North Carolina, I don't think he could win.

I mean, there's a path.

It's possible, but I think it's super unlikely if he doesn't win.

I mean, the very, very cynical part of me, which is almost all of me at this point,

says, you know, there's one of the reasons why they're not helping there is you've just taken out a swath of Trump supporters.

Okay, this is, this is, yeah, this is some have died, but also some have

totally you can't get to poll.

These people, they don't have cars.

Their bridges are washed out.

I mean, it's going to be tough.

But I'll tell you,

I met several people.

The old lady who we rescued, she's like 80 years old.

She's fantastic.

And she didn't know who I was or who Corey Mills was.

We were just helping her get into the, and as she's being put into the life flight,

she's just this damn Biden.

He doesn't give a flying crap.

And she was colorful.

And I thought, I think I know who she's voting for.

And this used to be Democratic country.

Oh, really?

Because I think of that part of the state as more red.

You do now.

These were tobacco farmers.

And, you know, they don't have health care.

These are poor, poor people.

And so, you know, they've been for government assistance because they've needed government assistance.

But now they see what this government assistance really means.

No.

They're not interested.

This has turned people, at least in that area, I think this has made them generational Republicans.

Just because of how bad this responsibility is.

Everybody I talked to was pissed at the federal government.

They were pissed.

I heard, I can't tell you how many times I heard yesterday, really?

How much money are they giving to these illegal immigrants?

And we've got nothing.

No one's on the ground.

i'm telling you i didn't see national guard i know the national guard is there they've been there for four or five days i think um but i didn't see any of them and i was in really some of the hardest hit areas uh i didn't there was no federal anything except the

uh satellite truck for fema which wasn't working at the time that but they're gonna oh they're where the people are no they weren't they were out in the middle of nowhere uh signing people up so they could get their paperwork in and start the system to help chug along.

And

they were helping one person.

It was despicable.

Then there was another place where FEMA was at another center where they put up showers so people could take showers, which I thought was really nice until they said that, you know, no, no, not for the people.

but for the volunteers so the volunteers could take showers

letting the people

anybody could go into a shower.

It was, it's obscene.

It's obscene.

When Mercury 1

is the one that is providing all of the O2 for all of the ambulances and one of the hospitals because they can't get it,

when that's happening,

excuse me, federal government, when there are people literally, we're saving their lives because we're providing insulin and life-saving drugs that they can't, that nobody else has.

Government's not there handing out these drugs.

I mean, you can go into the cities, you go into homeless areas, and, you know, they'll hand you drugs there.

You know, lots of drugs.

You need heroin, they'll help you out on this.

But insulin, they're not there.

It is.

It's shameful.

I have, I started telling you earlier today off the air, I asked you, do you remember the day I came in when we were air vacing people out of Afghanistan, I should say, trying to.

We had an air force there of

737s and 747s on the ground in Iraq.

Sorry, Afghanistan.

And the State Department was blocking us.

And then something happened that day where They mocked us.

They mocked us.

The State Department, we said, okay, it's been three days.

We got all the paperwork that you told us we had to have.

Everybody is on paperwork.

Oh, no, you need form 117B.

What is that form?

It's a new form.

Okay, where do we get that form?

Well, you can only get it at the embassy in Afghanistan, in Kabul.

You closed the embassy three days ago.

Yeah.

Well, how do we get that?

Well, it's just something you're going to have to figure out.

Click.

I walked right onto your stage

and I was so mad, I said, I will renounce my citizenship if this is who we are.

This is evil.

I was that close yesterday.

This country is so good,

so good.

The people are so good.

And it's the government that has gone very dark.

They don't care.

I know we have the most compassionate, politically correct people who just want the whole rainbow to come together, they despise, they despise great swaths of people.

San Francisco goes down and they need help.

You damn right Mercury One will be down on the ground and we won't be saying, who did you vote for?

We will help them.

Appalachia goes down.

We're all out of money.

Oh my gosh.

You print money.

You print money.

Can't take it.

All right, back in just a second.

When it is coming up to a time where you need to sell your home, it's a safe bet you're going to want to do some home repairs.

Some of them need to be done, but also a few repairs here and there can boost the value of your home market.

So you need a home repair contractor.

You don't need one that cuts corners, and a lot of them cut corners.

You need somebody who will charge the right price, a fair price, and do the right thing and do the right job.

You need a team of people when you're selling a house, and that should be run by your real estate agent, a really competent one, somebody that you can trust, who also trusts the community of friends that they have that says, I got Bob, he'll come in and fix that.

I've got, you know, Sally who's going to work on the, you know, curb appeal.

All of that stuff.

should come from your real estate agent.

So you need one you can trust, and that's the name of my company.

They started about 10 years ago.

We've done, I don't know how many billions of dollars in business now.

So the guy who has his finger on the nuclear button, who apparently has signed off on new nuclear protocols for war in case we go to war,

here he is at his finest, asked about the storm relief.

Listen to this.

What do the states in the storm zone need, Mr.

President?

Okay, what do the states in the storm zone, what do they need after what you saw today?

Oh, in the storm zone.

Yes, sir.

I'm wondering what storm they're talking about.

They're getting everything they need.

They're very happy across the board.

There's a lot there.

The fact that he,

I mean, I guess he could claim he's not hearing him, and that's what's going on.

He seems to just be like in this state of like, I don't, where am I?

Dementia.

Dementia.

That's what it looks like.

Yeah.

I guess maybe, and you can obviously tell there's an engine of

running a helicopter, so it's pretty loud.

Maybe he just didn't hear him.

But maybe the most disturbing part about that is what he says after he actually does understand it's about the storm and understands.

I was wondering what storm.

I was wondering, well, I was, I wasn't even going to go there because you're right.

That's another part of this.

Yeah.

The part that maybe bothered me the most is they're getting all that they need and they're all happy across the board.

There's four things that are just really scary and offensive in that 19 seconds.

Yeah.

And

for all the people listening on radio, the video is much worse.

Oh, yeah.

Because he's staring there with this blank look on his face.

Mouth open, really bad.

Yeah, really bad.

Really, really bad.

I mean, you're almost back at the debate.

Hang on just a second.

We have

Erica Moore on the phone.

Hello, Erica.

How are you?

Yes, hello.

How are you, Grant?

Good.

Where are you calling from?

I'm calling from Jacksonville, Florida.

Okay.

And I want to thank you and your staff so much for picking up my call because I've been rather desperate to get in touch with friends of mine who are also from Jacksonville but have a home in North Carolina and on top of a mountain.

And I've been trying to get hold of them, you know, for several days, recognizing that, of course, they probably don't have self-service.

No.

Cell service is so bad and no power to recharge either.

Yes.

And, you know, I went on X trying to get in touch with Corey Mills, but I know he's part of your Mercury One program.

And I just, I cannot thank you enough.

While I've been waiting, I've been texting with one of your gentlemen who is with Mercury One telling me that they can stop by today.

So I'm just, I cannot thank you enough for

providing this service.

You are welcome.

We will check on them to make sure they're okay and

let you know.

But by the way, you should know, almost everybody we do this for turns out to be fine.

If you feed your dog Kibble food, you probably know by now that it is like the guy in the Princess Bride.

It's mostly dead.

There's not much difference between mostly dead and all dead unless you're Miracle Max.

But you can do something about this.

And it's effective almost immediately.

Yeah, you don't need a Holocaust cloak or anything.

You don't have to change your dog's diet or what

you can tell.

I've watched that movie a lot.

Yeah, you don't have to change your dog's diet, what you're feeding.

You just need to add on rough greens.

Rough greens adds all of the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, the antioxidants, everything your dog needs.

Brown food is dead food.

It's been sterilized, so it can sit on a shelf at a a store for up to two years.

The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to love Rough Greens, they have a special deal for you right now.

Roughgreens, rufffgreens.com/slash Beck.

They'll give you your first trial bag for free.

You just pay for the shipping on it.

Your first Rough Greens jumpstart trial bag, free, roughgreens.com/slash Beck or 833-GLEN33.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Just a shout out to this amazing staff

at 570 WWNC.

I don't even know if we're on the air now.

They've been on the air for since last Thursday, just a skeleton group.

These AM radio stations are going to be

so valuable if things really break down.

We cannot allow

the

FCC to just destroy these AM radio stations.

You know, I know everybody thinks that they're not important.

They are crucially important.

And you notice that when

they need to know what's going on locally, it's always these

stations.

So they are, they're just involved in everything and

keeping people that do have power abreast of what's going on.

Also, in East Tennessee, I just want East Tennessee, Southwest Virginia

to know that we're not just in Western North Carolina.

We care about you deeply as well.

And Mercury One

is sending supplies to all of these places.

The only one that's getting attention right now is Asheville, North Carolina.

But we are helping you and your community.

And I want you to know you are not forgotten either.

And I really want to thank East Tennessee and SuperTalk 929 for everything that they are doing as well.

These radio stations, I am proud to be associated with you.

I hope you feel half the way I do

about our program and what we do as we do about you.

Yeah, because a lot of people will listen to these shows and love shows on the stations and it's entertainment.

But in these moments,

these stations just turn heroic.

Yeah.

Like they are like the lifeline for the entire community.

Yeah.

And

we saw that in 970 WFLA with all the hurricanes would be coming.

These stations just jump into action and they turn into

the center.

It is like the town hall,

the 911 dispatch.

I mean, it's everything.

It's everything.

The local radio is the most important lifeline, and you don't realize it until you need it.

And

I know what they do, and they're just critical.

So thank you for listening.

If you're listening on an AM radio station or an FM station that is talking,

thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Frequent the sponsors.

They need your support because they're really under attack from all fronts.

And we just appreciate that.

Let me go through some other things that happened yesterday.

Here's Fox News.

They went around and talked to some hurricane survivors.

And here's what they had to say about the federal government and their help.

Cut two.

We're not getting the amount of support that we need.

We haven't seen FEMA.

We haven't seen Red Cross.

We haven't seen Harts with Hands.

We've seen no agencies come through here.

Most people drive through with their cameras out, filming us like we're animals in a zoo, and don't stop.

How could the government do us like this?

And how could the whole country just read about us?

Like,

it's not enough.

What is being done is not enough.

I mean, there are entire communities that have been just decimated.

There is.

I mean, where is our government?

I mean, for Kamala, and I am

an avid supporter for her to stand in Florida today and

make a statement.

Where is our government?

That was the thing I said to everybody I met yesterday.

I want you to know you're not alone.

I know it feels like you are, but there are millions of Americans all across the country that are praying for you, are sending help.

You're not alone.

They feel very alone.

You don't understand this community.

I didn't, until you're actually there.

This is a very mountainous region.

The roads wind through these mountains.

It's incredibly isolated, very difficult to get to.

Honestly, if it wasn't for the people who have volunteered their own helicopters and Mercury One and then their helicopters,

I don't know what these people, they would die.

They would die.

There's no way out.

And if you're trying to bring a truck in with all of the bridges that are washed out and everything else, you're not going very far.

And so they're just trapped.

And without power, they're not hearing all of this.

But I will tell you, it spreads quickly there by mouth.

And they are very grateful for everything that you are doing.

And I am

so honored to be a part of this audience.

I mean, I listen too.

I have to.

They pay me to listen.

I don't know if I'd listen for free like you do, but they pay me to listen to this crap every day.

But I am so proud to be part of you.

You are the most giving, most generous, most game-changing audiences.

And I walked away from there yesterday with

unbelievable amounts of hope because I, like you, have wondered: are we going to come together like we did on 9-11 if there's a major tragedy?

Because I know there are,

this is the beginning of woes.

This is

just the beginning.

And

thank you, Lord, for the people that I met yesterday that gave,

showed me that, yes, Americans still come together and they care about one another.

And the one thing you should learn now is the government is not coming to rescue you.

I'm not sure it will even be able to if there is a massive shock of something that it's countrywide.

But your neighbors care.

Your neighbors care.

Let me,

you know, because I just said that it's the beginning of woes.

I saw this video.

I just, I don't even know what to make of this.

This was on TikTok.

And

they say, he says,

he's out on his porch as the hurricane is coming in, and he hears something.

He said

it was the sound of trumpets.

Listen,

cut seven.

Now, let's show you guys what has been happening around this hurricane.

This lady is sitting outside of her house.

She thinks he's watching a lightning storm, but it's much more than that.

Holy s, what the hell was that?

Did y'all see that?

noise

what is that yo

she's afraid at this point because it gets louder

Look at the sky, y'all.

Look at the sky.

Okay, so

so stop.

This goes on for a while.

Now, maybe it's one of those guys who has a train horn on his, you know, car that likes to freak people out.

Have you seen those people?

No.

Oh, you can kick?

Oh, yeah.

In some states, you can actually have, I think Texas is one of them.

You can get the diesel train horn and put it in your car.

In most states, it's against the law because it freaks you out.

Yes.

Okay.

It sounds like a train.

So maybe somebody has a train horn and they're like, oh, this will be freaky.

And they're just, you know, letting the train horn loose.

But what he was implying is it's the sound of trumpets,

which

if you

might want to read about, and in those days,

it's just freaky.

Just freaky.

It kind of to me sounded almost like Godzilla.

And when you see all the lightning.

Holy cow, I didn't even think

it might be.

Is he walking through like power lines in the distance and you can't see him?

And this is just.

Thank you.

I feel a lot better.

It could have been trumpets.

I think it could have been the train horn or the trumpets, you know, sounding the

giant dinosaur lizard thing

by nuclear.

I'm going with option three.

Thank you, thank you very much.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.

Stupid Gear is here with the Pulsecast.

And can we look at the Senate races?

Yeah, sure.

Quick on the Pulsecast presidential races.

You can get this update every day at glenbeck.com/slash pulsecast if you'd like.

This is an update and a summary of basically all the mainstream data nerds, predictions,

markets, everything.

And right now has Donald Trump at a 44.03% chance, a slight tick up from yesterday.

The race has been pretty stable, though, for over two weeks.

There hasn't been a lot of movement in this thing at all for

44%

makes you think, well, he's got a 50, or she has a 56.

But it's not that far.

The numbers are different.

That is razor-thin roughly a toss-up.

Yeah.

You know, I mean, you could squint and say she has a slight advantage in this race, but it's, you know,

again, this is just what the mainstream media is saying.

So tell me what's happening in the Senate.

Senate is interesting.

So you have a situation where, you know, unlike the presidential race with the Senate, you're starting off with like a scoreboard already on the board.

And so you get to see who is it favoring and who is it not.

So when you're talking about locked seats, not up for election,

the Republicans lead 38 to 28.

So 38 Republicans locked, 28 Democrats locked.

Then we go into the likely category.

So likely category for Democrats, there are 10 Democratic likely seats.

Some of them are interesting.

California Adam Schiff about to be a senator.

That's going to be really freaking annoying.

Really annoying.

You've got Elizabeth Warren going to be back in Maisie Hirano

in Hawaii.

Amy Klobuchar is likely going to win in Minnesota.

Gillibrand, New York.

So Eulie Sanders back.

So

you have 10.

That brings them up to

38.

So now it's tied without the leaning Republicans.

Right.

Now we'll go likely Republicans.

They've got a bunch too, which would include Pete Ricketts in Nebraska.

How many?

You've got a total, I mean, just quickly notable.

You've got Utah, which looks like John Curtis will win there, and we've talked about that race a little bit.

West Virginia is the mansion seat going away and going to the Republicans.

Marsha Blackburn and Josh Hawley will likely win there.

So that gets you nine likely seats for Republicans.

So you're up to now 47.

So if we're talking just likelies and solids, you're at 47 to 38 Republicans with the lead.

And this is why everyone's talking about Republicans are really likely to take the Senate.

Does get a little squishy from here on out, though.

Yeah, of course, this is where the Republicans always blow it.

You'd think you got a 47, 38 lead.

This is going to be easy, right?

No, shockingly, no.

So leaning Democrat.

New Jersey.

You've got Maryland, which is somewhat notable just because Larry Hogan is in the race for the Republicans.

Very, you know, did very, was very popular as a governor there, but he does seem to be behind in that race.

You've got Nevada, Jackie Rosen looks pretty solid there, though that's still up to, you know, it's a leaner race.

New Mexico, Virginia, Maine is, you know, around a 10-point race.

Angus King is technically an independent, independent, but likely will hold that seat probably by the end of this.

Arizona is another one.

Now, this is Ruben Gallego and Carrie Lake.

High hopes at one point for this race, but she does look to be behind.

This is leaning Democrat right now.

You have seven leaners.

Seven leaners for the Democrats, which brings this total now to 47 for the Republicans, 45 for the Democrats.

Gets close quickly.

Now, when we have lean Republicans, you've got Ted Cruz in Texas.

She's that's crazy.

Yeah, I can't say that's likely.

I could say it's a lean.

It's a 47-45.

I would say I'm confident Ted Cruz will win that race, but not overconfident.

It's way too close.

We've seen it.

It's way too close.

It's got to have him on the show.

Yeah, I would love to have him on.

We've defeated him over and over again, I think.

Okay.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I'm sure he will come on.

Well, you might know that I'm the kiss of death.

Yeah, he might be a lean.

Would you mind endorsing Colin Allray?

Montana is another one.

This is a Democratic seat currently held by John Tester.

Tim Sheehy leads there.

It's about five points.

And

he's got a solid lead.

It's not overwhelming, but it looks like they will be able to get

that seat.

Another one, which is kind of odd, because Texas is odd to have in the leaners.

I should have that in the likelies.

Right now, it's only in the leaners.

Florida, actually, Rick Scott is winning, but it is a close race, 46-42.

Now,

the underlying data of this race makes me think he's going to wind up winning this and probably by more than four points.

If you you go back to 2020, you know, Donald Trump won Florida,

but like the registration in Florida has turned overwhelmingly towards Republicans since then.

So

it would be shocking to me if Rick Scott didn't win in Florida.

But polling is showing it close enough that we're just going to count it as a leaner right now.

Now, that brings us only three there.

That brings us to 50 for the Republicans and 45 for the Democrats with with five toss-up races.

Are you ready for them?

All right, here we go.

And these are too close to call?

Yeah, I mean, you could squint and see a lead on some of these, but these are only counting as toss-ups right now.

Michigan,

Slotkin versus Rogers.

There's an edge for the Democrats right now.

Ohio, Sherrod Brown versus Bernie Moreno.

Probably an edge for the Democrats right now.

Bob Casey versus Dave McCormick, probably

an edge for the Democrats right now.

Tammy Baldwin versus Eric Hovey.

This is probably a lean for the Democrats right now.

The last one, and this is on nobody's radar.

Not hearing you.

Nebraska 2, which is Deb Fisher versus an Independent.

They're trying the Mike Lee tactic against them.

It's partisan polling, but it's showing it very close.

I think this leans on the Republican side of toss-up, but watch that race.

Pay attention.

Man.

The Glenn Beck program.
