Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.
I lit the fuse and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.
He's going the distance.
He was the highest paid TV star of all time.
When it started to change, it was quick.
He kept saying, No, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.
Now, Charlie's sober.
He's gonna tell you the truth.
How do I present this with any class?
I think we're past that, Charlie.
We're past that, yeah.
Somebody call action.
Yeah, aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.
Well,
how many of you brought your
assassination gun from Lee Harvey Oswald to the class today?
I thought it was show and tell.
Hello.
So we talk about assassination and assassination
in the past and kind of wonder, are we the same people that come together anymore?
Historic perspective, what's supposed to divide the country, it's usually had the opposite effect, but I'm not so sure anymore.
Why do we know so much about a letter written by the would-be Trump
assassin,
which is saying, you know, you got to go out there and try to kill him, and yet they hid the Nashville shooter's letter.
Is there an agenda here that they want out?
Plus, we have lost our way as a country.
Would you stop for anybody in distress anymore?
I tell you an amazing story.
Also, Ryan Walters talks about how Tim Walsh's anti-parent platform is going to ruin your child's education.
It's already ruined it in Minnesota and how dangerous it would be to have it nationwide.
It's the best of the Glenn Beck podcast, and it starts in 60 seconds.
Let me tell you about good ranchers.
When your family sits down, by the way, speaking of ranchers, let me tell you something.
I don't know if
you saw the news about Kamala, but
she's practically a rancher.
She said, somebody comes into my house.
I got my gun.
And I'm going to pew pew, shoot them down.
Anyway, Good Ranchers.
Good, delicious, high-quality meat that comes from animals raised right here in America.
It is affordable at a time when meat all over the country has gone up and up and up.

You're listening to
the best of the Glen Back program.
So I'm going to start the program with this.
this.
Do you recognize this gun?
Just holding it up for the
Blaze viewers.
It is a...
Looks like an old rifle, right?
Old rifle, yeah.
You know, got the wood on there.
You got the black scope on the top.
Kind of some, you know, I don't know, leather-looking straps
kind of affixed to it.
Yeah.
It's got a bolt.
Looks like bolt action.
Yeah.
Okay.
You might not recognize it, but you think maybe you've seen it before.
It's because
this is the sister gun, exact sister gun used by Lee Harvey Oswald.
Yeah, I mean, the picture of the guy holding it up is very famous.
Yes.
So very famous.
As I'm looking at this gun this weekend,
somebody brought it to the art show.
I mean, luckily he was a friend.
He didn't try to get it past
the screeners.
I brought a rifle.
Is that a problem?
I just brought this rifle to Dallas.
No big deal.
And so we were talking about it.
And I mean, it is
an Italian rifle.
It's a bad Italian rifle.
It's from World War II.
It is not real good.
It has very small bullets.
It has a,
it's actually, I think, a clip that goes in to this, not a magazine.
I think this one actually is a clip.
And it had five bullets in it.
Now, three, he fired three bullets.
Three shells were found.
The gun was found.
But
the clip or the magazine, whichever one it's called, I'm pretty sure this one is a clip, I think he said.
That was never found.
So the extra bullets were never found.
The bullets, because it takes a special caliber, it's my understanding that they were all purchased by the CIA
at the time.
And so
this was a CIA caliber.
They bought all of those, that caliber
at that time.
And then they had been dumped on the market
just
right before the shooting.
The scope is from Japan.
And he bought this at a department store in Chicago.
This is very, very cheap.
And the scope on top of it is from Japan.
And it is just, it's just crosshairs.
It's not even a, it's not even a hunting scope, really.
It was like a dollar at the time.
Holding this gun and looking through this scope and knowing what I do know about how many snipers tried to make the shot,
with this gun, I could make that shot in Dallas with one of my guns.
With this gun,
I don't think I could have done three shots.
There's no way.
I just don't think there's a way.
But
maybe there is.
Maybe he was the only shooter.
And, you know, that's what we're led to believe.
And I don't have any evidence.
I have a lot of questions, but I don't have any evidence that it wasn't.
Anyone can get lucky with a shot, right?
Right, right.
But here's the thing.
Almost immediately, they produced this gun, and you know the picture of this gun because as soon as they caught Lee Harvey Oswald, it was walked through the crowd and shown to the press.
We knew almost immediately where that gun was purchased.
We knew the serial number of the gun.
We knew all about the bullets.
We knew about the scope.
We knew the scope came from Japan.
We knew everything about this gun almost immediately.
Stu, can you tell me anything about either of the guns
other than their make?
Or their model number?
I mean, I have not
seen much information on it.
No, there's nothing on them.
Really?
No.
No.
There's, I'm, you know, it's weird because we have access to almost everything now.
Why don't we know where these guns came from?
Why don't we know how that gun in Florida fell into his hands?
Yeah, they just said that there's a, it had an obliterated serial numbers.
They keep using obliterated.
Yeah, because nobody thinks for themselves.
So how was it obliterated?
How did he get the gun?
How come we don't know that yet?
How come we don't have people out there searching for, they've not made him talk yet about how did you get the gun he's not willing to share that information
what about the story um
the blaze spoke to a journalist uh who then spoke to 10 people from tucson did you hear about the trump rally in tucson
let me give you this uh this story from the blaze after attending a trump rally in tucson arizona last week roughly 20 attendees reported mysterious symptoms such as blurred vision and facial swelling following the event.
While we still don't know what happened, many are speculating that a chemical attack took place.
Could the strange illness that affected the attendees be a result of more political violence incited by Democrats and the mainstream media?
Political journalist Christy Kelly joined Jill Savage and the Blaze News Tonight panel to discuss this deeply concerning situation.
According to Kelly, this was not an ordinary rally, primarily because there was a lot of consternation going into the rally.
The namesake of the venue, Linda Ronstadt, published to social media a lengthy
post stating her displeasure with Trump for even being there.
You know, see, there's always something good that comes out of even the worst.
I now know I could answer the question if somebody asked me, is Linda Ronstadt still alive?
I know the answer.
Oh, wow.
I know the answer.
So let's look at the bright side.
Kelly, who says she's spoken with a lot of the people, 10 of them, who have come down with some sort of mystery illnesses, all of whom happen to be seated directly behind Donald Trump.
Blaze Media asked, what have these people told you?
Kelly said those afflicted individuals reported that everything in the rally went fine.
However, right after
the rally, strange maladies began setting in.
Every person that we spoke to said 20 to 30 minutes after they left the rally, they began to get blurry eyes, blurry vision.
Some said their nose started stinging, and they started experiencing redness that progressively got worse, adding that the majority of the people she spoke with did end up in the ER.
Some were then referred to their ophthalmology.
Two people that I spoke to that were referred to their ophthalmologist gave me the paperwork, which included bilateral
ocular chemical burn in the eye.
The emergency room physicians were less definitive, indicating that the strange systems could have been, quote,
a result of extreme exposure to lighting or
potentially an irritant in the air.
However, the ophthalmologist reports indicated that it was some sort of chemical burn.
Despite both the event center and local law enforcement being notified of the situation, we have not received a statement from either the facility or the Tucson police.
Thankfully, the Trump campaign is taking this initiative on to find out exactly what happened.
So what happened there?
What happened there?
Does anybody I mean, does anybody care?
Seriously.
Does anyone care any more?
This is now, and it could be just some chemical that were on big, I mean, they just don't use these lights anymore, but you know, like big stage lights that burn really hot and maybe they were new and they had some chemical.
I don't think that's happened since like 1971,
but maybe,
maybe.
But why did it only affect the people that were directly behind Donald Trump?
Now,
let's go back and look at some of the other things.
So, we have a problem with the FBI, and we've talked about it before.
The FBI, the suspect was on our radar.
Oh, were they?
They were on your radar.
Oh, okay.
Well, that's good.
Do you mean radar range?
Is that a microwave you're looking at?
Well, yeah, there was a sticky note.
We just put it, put his name down on a sticky note and just taped it to the microwave door door because we were making some popcorn.
We thought, hey, every time you make popcorn, we should remember to look into that guy.
What does that mean?
It's on your radar.
The FBI just told Just the News in a statement on Tuesday that it receives thousands of tips every day, which is fielded through its National Threat Operations Center in West Virginia.
The tips involving a threat to life, serious bodily injury, or significant violent action are treated the highest priority and referred to the appropriate FBI field office or other relevant offices.
Through this process, the FBI was
notified about the dangers of certain people that could pose at least a threat five times they've received one that was a potential threat that was on their radar that went on to commit mass shooting or attempts to kill Donald Trump.
We know the most recent events,
first assassination attempt, and now the second assassination attempt.
This guy, Ryan Wesley Routh, allegedly aimed an AK-47 that we know nothing about through the fence at the golf course.
He was charged with possession of a firearm as a felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated, there's that word again, serial number.
Every time.
He had been flagged by the FBI back in 2019, so he was on the radar for several years.
He was also the subject of a previously closed tip to the FBI where he was
allegedly he was a felon in possession of a firearm.
Well, there's no allegedly about it.
He was, for some reason,
doesn't this sound strange?
Because just ask yourself, gun owners, would this happen to you?
If you had been a convicted felon because you were even just brandishing a firearm, but he went actually in and had a standoff with police and he had a fully automatic weapon, do you think you would have been judged guilty in a court of law and then just like, you know, you're on your own recognizance
and not paid any time in prison?
Why did that happen?
He has several run-ins with the law and he's never put in jail.
Why?
Now, you could come up with all kinds of theories,
but they would involve conspiracies.
And I don't want to get into conspiracy theories.
I'll get into conspiracy facts.
But I only have theories on this one.
One of those theories does not explain any of that, but it does it does lead one to caution
that this government has so much information on all of us
that within five minutes of being asked,
AI could find people like this that are unstable,
that could be used, that have an axe to grind, that have access to weapons.
that they could just have AI suggest to them,
in no way traceable,
you know, you really have a responsibility to kill the president.
That's the world we're living in now.
And the government has that direct power.
I'm not saying that they've used it.
I'm saying you cannot trust that kind of power in the hands of a system that you don't trust.
Who trusts it?
And I ask that of Democrats.
If you trust this, I mean, I think you're crazy, but if you trust this system, what happens if Donald Trump gets in?
Do you trust that system?
See, unless you're planning on a one-party system, somebody is going to get in that doesn't agree with you.
That's why you don't want any of this
stuff happening, no matter who's president.
Your guy or the other guy.
You don't want this kind of power in the hands of an out-of-control government.
And the only way you make sure that you don't have the power in somebody's hands that you don't trust is that you obey the law and you demand that the law be enforced equally all the time.
I don't know how,
I really don't know how more Americans don't understand the danger that we're all in.
All of us.
I want to talk to you about Jace, medical Jace case.
I was having dinner last night with some friends and we were talking about it, how, you know, we have to make sure that we have all the medicine that we might need.
Just,
you know,
be nice to have 90 days worth.
You know,
let's get through the election and through January 20th and see where that takes us.
There are many things that you need to make sure that you have ready, but probably the one thing that will make the biggest difference in your life next to food is medicine.
And you can get the Jace case and you can personalize it.
So it comes already with antibiotics, essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.
But you can also add ivermectin, you can add tamaflu, you can add some of the drugs that you have to take every day.
Just call Jace,
talk to them, go on the website, find out all about it.

Now back to the podcast.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
Let me take you back.
It's evening, April 14th, 1865.
Civil War has just ended.
It was done five days ago.
The country was ripped apart by the bloodiest conflict in our history.
But the healing had started.
Do you know why, why the South is full of all those statues that everybody has just torn down?
Do you know why?
It was to try to unite the country again.
You know, okay,
you had some generals that were good.
Go ahead, build a statue to that person.
It was the way that we were trying to come back together and recognize bravery.
And the North was like, okay, well, just let's come back together.
It's better to bring the Union together than continue to fight.
600,000 Americans are dead.
Families have been torn apart, North versus South, brother against brother.
And in the middle of all this stands Abraham Lincoln, the man who held the country together.
But most people didn't really like him.
He was not a popular guy when he was alive.
But he refused to let the Union break.
and then he's the guy who emancipates all blacks.
Lincoln had been through the storm.
He was seeing through the light at the, he is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, but then enters John Wilkes Booth.
Now, Booth isn't just some guy that nobody knew, didn't like Lincoln.
He was
a famous actor.
He was Johnny Depp, well known.
But he was also well known as a Confederate sympathizer.
To him, Lincoln wasn't a hero.
He was the tyrant who destroyed the South.
And Booth believed, we have to have hatred.
I've got to get people to hate the South more.
And if I kill Lincoln and it's known that it's me, a Southerner, a Confederate, they'll rise up again and the war will be fought again.
There will be another Confederacy and another shot at victory.
So Booth goes to Ford's theater that night, sneaks into Lincoln's box, pulls the trigger.
Now in his mind, it's going to be the thing that's, you know, the spark that sets everything on fire again.
And the South would rise, chaos would return, and the Union would fall apart.
But what actually
happened?
The exact opposite.
We've seen this in our history books over and over and over again, especially when we look at the assassination attempts on American presidents.
What's
fascinating and kind of ironic is how these acts of violence meant to tear us apart have almost always had the opposite effect.
Instead of dividing us, they somehow or another end up uniting us, make us stronger and more resilient.
Now, let me ask you the question I asked a little while ago.
Are we those people now?
Will we be those people
if violence rears up?
If Donald Trump is shot, will it unite us or will it tear us apart?
Would we rise like John Wilkes Booth wanted it to happen?
Would we rise in anger
and
demand war?
Would the left celebrate and dance in the streets and pass out candies and cookies like the Palestinians did on 9-11?
Will we be calm enough on both sides to be able to say, that's not who we are, each calling out their own side?
I don't know.
I mean, when I heard that story from a friend of mine in church yesterday about, you know, standing in a good section of town and a bad, bad car accident.
And
she's just asking for people to help, help, help, help, and nobody stops.
She goes right up to a motorcyclist and he looks the other way to pretend he doesn't see her as he stopped.
Is that who we're becoming and what is happening to us?
Yeah, I mean, there are,
it's it's interesting because you were talking about this, and I was, you know, you put yourself in that position a little bit,
and there are certain circumstances you would definitely help, but I think there's certain circumstances that you'd be afraid to help.
You'd be afraid to, like, I think of the guy on the subway in New York who stepped in to try to help save somebody's life, and now he's charged with a crime.
But that's New York.
You expect it.
I mean, I shouldn't expect it.
No, you shouldn't, but you do.
Okay.
Because New York is an absolutely insane place.
Now,
have the suburbs of Fort Worth become
that insane to where
it's like the subway, you just don't want to get involved?
I mean, that's possible.
It is possible.
I mean, I think it's even happening with our police officers right now.
I think even our police officers are looking at some of these circumstances.
We're seeing it certainly in inner cities where they're looking at these situations and thinking, oh my God, like if I step in and I rescue someone and shoot them, am I going to be on MSNBC and CNN every day for the next three months as a racist?
So let me ask you, this is one of the things that
attracts me to Donald Trump.
And it wasn't like this before.
But when he was down on the ground, he could have stayed on the ground.
He could have had them take him, but he parted the officers and said, No, I have to see them.
And he gave a message to us, a defiant message.
I'm back on my feet.
Don't you sit down, fight.
Yep.
That's courage.
That's courage.
Courage, I mean, the people probably you know, they say people will proster
will
perish without vision.
But vision is not enough.
It has to be vision
courage.
I mean, one of the things that has made us successful in the past and almost broke several times is I do have a vision for what I think we need to do, et cetera, et cetera.
But I also have, some would call it insanity.
Others would say it's the courage to roll the dice and say, you know what?
I don't care if we lose it all.
Let's try.
I think that's right.
You know what I mean?
So you have to have vision and courage.
Donald Trump has shown himself to have courage are we showing ourselves to have courage
because it will be very unpopular if he's killed
if he's killed God help us God God help all of us you do not want a civil war in this country you just don't it'll just be horrid
And we'll end up being, we'll end up being like Haiti or Venezuela.
It should be obvious to everyone, by the way.
I don't think it is.
Yeah, no, I think you're right.
I don't think it is.
There are definitely at least some people who think, oh, you know,
well, we'd win.
Even if that's true.
What do you win?
What do you win?
What do you win?
But
I think there is that.
There's that instinct.
And look, we have changed.
I think, you know, someone came in earlier, one of the producers came in and was talking about how they were pulled over
with a blown-out tire, and only one person stopped to try to help them.
And
he was surprised that even one did.
And
I can understand that.
I can also understand if
I have a tire blowout on the side of the road and someone stops, I'm concerned about who they are.
Why are they stopping?
What are they going to do?
Am I about to get robbed or assaulted or God knows what?
And I know, certainly, you know,
thinking mainly if I have my kids with me, like, you know, you don't want to to put them in a dangerous situation.
Now, 99% of the time, that's not going to be the case, but you're certainly guarded against that.
I don't know that that's always been the reality.
I was up in Idaho and I'm driving, and I'm driving to the airport.
I'm getting ready to leave, and small town.
And I'm driving, and I'm on the highway, and this semi-truck is pulled off to the side, and it has its hood up.
And I pull over and I walk up to the driver, and I said,
anything I can do to help?
I should have said, I know nothing about what you're going to say here in a minute.
I won't understand a word.
He was like, you know, well, I just have the defibrillator.
I just need to blow some air through the defibrillator and then just ratchet it down with a 15B screw nut.
Yeah.
And I'm like, I don't have any idea what he was even talking about.
Probably he wasn't talking about that.
And I see, right.
And I said to him, I meant,
have you called for help or is there,
can i wait with you do you need a beverage what can i have some water in the car do you have any grey poupons i don't know um
uh but uh you know i i i had i had no help but i didn't want to pass him without thinking that somebody would stop you know what i mean right yeah and like that i'm not sure i would do that in dallas i'm not sure i would do that in dallas i mean you don't have to convince me that small town life is better you know i think that's true i think i think the
obvious But
I think we as Americans need to recognize not just that it's better,
why it's better.
We haven't lost our connection to one another yet.
In small towns, we still care about each other.
In these big cities, it's all breaking down.
And it's breaking down.
I mean, if it breaks down here in Dallas, in Texas, I mean, I'm not living in the city.
We're living in a nice area where that accident happened is a fairly nice area.
Yeah.
I can't imagine him not pulling over and trying to help.
In that situation, you're 100% trying to help and do anything you can.
Right.
And nobody did.
Nobody did.
Except my friend.
That's really surprising, honestly.
Shocking.
Yeah.
I wonder, too, about, like, if you think about the interactions you have on a daily basis, especially people who are online a lot,
so many of them are negative.
You know, you're, you're like, people commenting, saying bad things, saying awful things, insults, you know, just cold, awful behavior.
And
if you're going to list, if you're going to list the last, like
the top 100 bad experiences you've had with people over the past
year,
I would guess at least 95, probably 99, maybe 100 of them would be with people online.
Right.
You know, you said that and I thought, I don't know I've had a bad
experience because people are actually not that awful when you're talking to them in person, but we do so much less of that now.
You know, you wind up seeing so much of this where you're just getting your people are yelling at you about politics or whatever else.
If you're one of those people who's online too much, you know that life.
Like you wind up getting a really negative perception about the people around you.
That's true.
And I wonder if that just makes you exactly older and mostly.
I'm thinking back.
I honestly cannot think of a bad experience.
Oh, no, I forgot a coworker.
Oh, no.
This is where the does it count if it's like a very close co-worker, somebody like you work in the same room with every day?
Is that there's only me and you here, Glenn.
I know who you're talking about,
and I feel the same way, but you can't.
You're listening to the best of Glenn Beck.
Need a little more?
Check out the full show podcast anywhere you download podcasts.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad you're here.
You know,
one of the things that we've been talking today about, you know, if they're elected,
if Wals and Harris are elected,
economically, it's a nightmare, an absolute nightmare.
You know,
the killing of the gig economy alone.
I mean, how many parents work, you know, a gig so they can keep things going?
I mean, they are California.
The thing that they've already, they've already passed this.
It just really hasn't had the effect yet that it, oh, it will.
The price controls, all of these things.
The send your kids off to war.
All of these things that are so important that nobody's really talking about.
And they just have Trump derangement syndrome.
But the other one that I just don't understand is,
I mean, they are really anti-parent.
Remember, Kamala was for BLM.
And one of the things for BLM was breakup of the nuclear family.
And, you know, she said, I understand them.
They have good point.
No, they didn't.
No, they didn't.
And they were violent.
And she bailed out the people who were violent.
And if you think the teachers union won't become stronger
and she's against the
school choice,
how are parents dealing with that?
How are parents not seeing,
wait, this is not good for my kids.
This is not good for, especially girls, man.
This is so bad.
Well, both.
Because boys are being emasculated and girls are now men, too.
Girls are just what if you choose to be a girl.
I mean they have to they're doing so much damage.
And how is it that we can't see
this?
How is it parents aren't looking at their kids and the schools and everything they learned
and not seeing this is a really hideous road road to go down.
Ryan Walters, he is the Oklahoma State Superintendent for Schools.
We've had him on the program before, but he wrote a great op-ed for the Federalists.
I'd just like him to take us through it.
Ryan, welcome to the program.
Absolutely, Glenn.
Thank you for having me on.
You bet.
And you said it exactly right.
I mean, I'm amazed.
I shouldn't be amazed or shocked, but the corporate media has run from the issue of education suddenly because this Harris Waltz agenda, it's unconscionable.
And you can't even, you can't, even the radical leftists are going, hey, put that in a back burner.
Let's talk about something else right now.
Right.
So
tell me about it.
Why are they,
what do people need to know about them?
Yeah, let's take a look at Minnesota because you see here Kamala Harris put
Governor Waltz there on her ticket, and he is Mr.
Teachers' Union to his core, proud card-carrying member of the Teachers' Union, and enacted every teachers' union policy in Minnesota, including one which would stop courts from allowing parents to stop their kids from transitioning.
So basically if you're a parent and you don't want your kid to go under a sex change, he pushed forward a law that would allow
the government to take those kids from those parents and then block the parent from pursuing any kind of records, any kind of stoppages to that.
I mean, that's how extreme they are.
Not only do they want the sex change operation, they want to block parents.
They basically want to become a sanctuary city for the child sex operations there.
They pushed absolutely having boys and girls' sports, boys and girls' bathrooms.
They wanted tampons in the boys' bathrooms.
So gender confusion at its height.
And of course, they don't want school choice because school choice, again, if you want to push all those policies in a public school, it's bad enough.
But school choice at least starts giving parents the ability to fight back with their feet.
Oh, of course they fought that in Minnesota.
So you've got a guy here who has pushed the craziest Marxist radical theories from the teachers' union in action in Minnesota.
This isn't theoretical anymore.
He pushed these things things and enacted them in Minnesota.
Yeah, but I mean the test scores.
What happened to the test scores in Minnesota?
Oh, they plummeted.
And, you know, and that's the other thing that as you've pointed out so many times so well on your show, you know,
the reality is when you confuse a child to this degree, not only is it sick, not only does it harm them mentally, not only does it completely confuse them, how in the world do you ever get back to basic academics?
I mean, you have got these kids so thoroughly confused, so against the way God's created them.
You're spitting in the face of God's creation here, that it's so confused.
Of course they can't perform on the test, and it is really, really damaging our kids in a tremendous way.
And again, because of folks like you, Glenn, because of Donald Trump out there beating the drum every day going, guys, look what they're doing to your kids.
The mainstream media goes, all right, education, let's talk about something else.
I mean, they really, I mean, you talk about how the Democrats have always wanted to talk about education and they've always just wanted more money for your government school, government school.
That's kind of gone away now, hasn't it?
Because they don't want to face the music on these issues.
So, you know, I've been thinking a lot about this, about what
the,
what
Generation Z looks like
and what the next generation looks like if we don't stop this.
I mean, I think we have just gutted
this last generation, just gutted them.
What are they going to be?
What are they going to, I mean,
so many are not going to be able to have children.
They're not going to be able to know how to define a woman.
What happens to that generation?
Well, you know,
here's the reality, and it's part of the bigger role that you helped uncover as well.
I mean, this is why they hate our history so much.
This is why they hate having the Bible in school.
You know, we're proud here in Oklahoma.
We're the first state to bring the Bible back to every classroom.
Why?
It played a huge role in our history.
It's undeniable.
You've got the artifacts, Glenn.
And for them to deny this to our kids, what they want to do is they want to take them on this brave new world, right?
They want to take them on this 1984 path, this absurdity of a society that they want on our kids.
And what they've got to do is they've got to unmoor them from our history.
They can't look back.
They can't learn lessons from our past.
They can't learn who we are or the values we were founded on, those Judeo-Christian values.
That has to be wiped out for this to even be somewhat of a logical leap for them.
And so the reality is, is what they're going to do is create the most confused generation in the history of the world that is going to be so far from truth that I don't know if they can find their way back.
And that's why it's so essential to put the Bible back in schools, to put our history back in schools, so that kids can seek out truth.
Seek out what made America great.
Seek out what made individuals great.
How did individuals find happiness in society?
What worked?
What didn't?
Those are the conversations our kids should be having in our schools instead of being told, Johnny, you might be Susie.
I mean, it is the complete opposite of what an education should be.
So
what,
I mean,
are parents kind of numb to all of this now?
Are you seeing parents still rising up in schools and saying, no, none of this?
Are they on guard?
What's happened to the parents?
Look, parents are still on fire for it.
And I think, though, I'm going to tell you, Glenn, our elected officials have to act.
It's just like so many other situations.
We see this all the time.
Glenn, I'm criticized all the time by my own party.
I've got my own speaker up here trying to impeach me because we took gender, queer, and flamer out of schools and we're putting the Bible in schools.
I got my own speaker coming after me over this because you get elected officials.
What's his name?
Hang on just a second.
He's a Republican?
He's a Republican, that's right.
And what's his name?
Charles McCall is his name.
I'll be looking into Charles McCall.
And Glenn, you know what?
They say what they got to do to get elected, then they don't act.
And I'm going to tell you, this is the frustration from grandparents and parents.
We have talked about these things.
Every state, get CRT out of your school.
Get gender, queer, and flamer out of your school.
There's no excuse.
Get it out.
Put the Bible in.
Hey, we also brought in William Bennett's Book of Virtues.
Hey, that's another
thing we have available for.
Every child in the state of Oklahoma now has access to the Book of Virtues.
We put it back in the schools, the Bible back in the schools.
Take out all this leftist, Marxist garbage, and put in real academic literature.
Let's learn about our country.
Let's learn about these heroes throughout our history.
Let's get the kids excited about what America can be.
And I think the parents and grandparents, hey, look, they see President Trump out there fighting for them, getting shot at,
they're trying to kill him.
And then you see all these other elected Republican officials that go, ah, you know, we'll get around to it.
We'll do something.
Just get us reelected.
Folks, we've got to act and we've got to demand that of our elected officials of go in there, get the schools back on track, protect our kids, go up there and do what you promised to do.
And unfortunately, you just don't see a lot of it.
Ryan, thank you so much.
Really appreciate your time.
That was a great article.
In fact, let me find the name of the article.
Tim Walsh thinks your kids belong to the public school system.
You know, that is so true.
They actually just think that our kids,
if we as parents disagree with them, Our kids don't belong to us.
They belong to them.
It is terrifying, really a cult.
Ryan Walters, the Oklahoma State Superintendent, thank you so much for being on the program.
Thank you, Glenn.
Appreciate you very much.
You bet.
Bye-bye.
