You have absolutely nothing.
I believe it was
Benjamin Franklin, a Republic if you can keep it.
Yes.
Your home's equity if you can keep it.
Because these home thieves come out and they go through and they look for your documents online.
They get them.
They fake a sale so that it looks like you've sold your home to them on paper, even though you're still living in it.
I'm confused when you say these thieves.
Are we talking about the government?
Are we talking of?

Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glen Beck Program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.
Wow.
The gun-toting vice president who's running for president, Kamala Harris.
Oh, she's going to smoke you.
We'll talk about that coming up in just a second.
Let me ask you something.
How rested up are you this morning?
You feeling awake?
You perked up?
Full of energy?
I'm ready.
I'm ready to take on the day.
Now go take on the day.
I can do it without Dr.
Laura.
Yeah, that's right.
If you have difficulty getting to sleep and staying asleep, and that's something that affects millions of Americans, the options are to fight it with some things that aren't good options.
I love the,
what is that sleeping pill that
people take?
It's ambient.
Oh my God.
That thing is dangerous.
Anything that says take when in bed should be a sign.
Should be a sign.
Yeah.
You should probably strap yourself in for this one.

Can we play Kamala Harris, please?
This cut one.
This is, wow.
I'm a gun owner.
Tim Hospital is a gun owner.
I know that.
And I thought the race in my house are getting shot.
Sorry.
Yes, yes.
I hear that.
I hear that.
Probably should not have said that.
But my staff will deal with that later.
Okay.
All right.
Her and Oprah, just laughing it up.
It's great.
So she's a gun owner.
I would like anyone, anyone in the press to ask,
what kind of gun do you own?
When did you get it?
Where did you get it?
What gun store did you purchase it from?
Yeah.
When was the last time you went to the range?
You know what I mean?
I'd love to know that question because she's the exact kind of person you don't want to own a gun.
She, I can guarantee you, she's not.
Can you see her wearing the goggles and the, and the, and the earphones to protect her ears out of the firing range?
Oh, I do it once a month.
No, you don't.
You've never fired the gun.
Never fired the gun.
Oh,
this is such a sham.
This is such all the world is but a stage and we are merely but its players.
I mean, this is a performance.
She deserves an Oscar for this.
And you know what?
The way things are in America, she could win one.
They might at the end of this one because they won't care anymore.
They'll be like, and for best actress pretending she was like, you know, liked America and a gun owner, Kamala Harris.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good job.
She can have that award as long as she accepts it when she doesn't live in the White House.
That is a, yeah, I mean, I do think it was a relatively smart tactic on this one.
I think it was somewhat of a smart tactic because the American people see Oprah as an interview show.
Yeah.
Like they see, when they see that setup, they see an interview.
But this is a woman who spoke at her convention.
This is almost her running me.
I know.
Right.
Like, this is not an interview.
And the good thing about having this setup, and I think this is why I think it's smart, is
Look, Kamal Harris had some bad moments in that interview,
absolutely.
But Oprah's a pro at being able to smooth those over and talk her into it and lead her in the right direction.
It's like an interview coach on stage with her as she's doing it.
It's incredible.
I know.
But she did have, she couldn't answer one question.
Here it is.
Cut two, please.
We really would love to know what your plan is to help lower the cost of living.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
First of all, thank you both for being here.
And yours is
a story I hear around the country as I travel and
in terms of both
rightly
having the right to have aspirations and dreams
the right to have those ambitions for your family
and aspirations
working hard and finding that the American dream is for this generation and so many recently far more elusive than it's been.
Yeah, sure.
And we need to deal with that.
Okay.
And there are a number of ways.
One is bringing down the cost of everyday necessities.
That was the question.
How are you going to do that?
That was the question.
How are you going to bring down the cost?
So, you've got lots of ideas, lots of ideas to fight this.
And what we have to do is
bring down the cost of everyday necessities.
Important.
First of all, it's so ridiculous.
This is what she does.
She like remembers a few words from the question and then just works them into her answer
and then fills it with nonsense, jibber-jabber, idiocy.
But what I will say
about her proposals here and her identification of the problems, bring them down from what?
Bring them down from what?
From you, from your administration.
You're sitting here running for president, saying you're going to solve the problems that you yourself and your dopey 900-year-old running mate created.
It's incredible.
How could anyone believe this?
Do we have the clip?
It was on yesterday's sheet.
The clip from my show on Wednesday where I was showing.
This is so amazing, Stu.
I showed the inflation rate and how it's going down.
Ah, okay.
Okay.
Do we happen to have that clip by any chance?
Oh, it's way down.
I hope you're not.
Yeah.
I hope you know it's going way down.
Well, I mean, mean, you can tell when you go and buy groceries.
Right.
Way down.
Here it is.
What?
All of the things that they did three, four years ago, it's all now picking up speed and
it's all being seen now by you.
But don't worry, it's all fine.
It's just, it's really, it's all fine.
We're lulled to sleep with reporting like this.
The recent consumer price index shows, quote, inflation cools to 2.5%.
Wow.
Core prices, things like food, housing, energy cars, things that we actually buy and need were a bit higher at 3.2.
Now, what do you notice about these numbers?
2.5% inflation, 3.2% inflation.
I mean, that seems manageable, right?
Doesn't seem, I mean, it seems almost normal, doesn't it?
We can deal with that.
2.5%,
3.2%,
you know, trust in the system and we'll all be okay.
The government can keep spending and we can keep swiping the credit cards.
Let me take you to the chalkboard for a second and show you something the government never wants you to see and nobody in the mainstream media will ever explain it this way.
Here's the inflation.
We've all been hearing for four years now that there's nothing wrong with the national debt, the deficit, and inflation.
It's fine.
Bidenomics, Bidenomics.
The Fed has a plan.
Everything is actually okay and prices are coming down, or at least rising at a slower rate.
But is that actually how you feel when you go to the grocery store?
When you pay your energy bill?
When you look at your new insurance bill?
You fill up the gas tank?
Do you feel like, ah, it's fine, Bidenomics is working?
Let me show you the reason for the disparity and also how the government is pulling off their little magic trick.
Let me show you this part of the chalkboard.
I'm going to start here.
It reflects the consumer price index from 23 to the end of 2024.
This is the average cost of goods that we pay to support our family with things like clothes, cars, gas, energy bills, 3.2 to 2.5.
You can see that there is a gradual increase from last year, but then boom, right at the tail end of 2024,
like right now during the election, isn't that weird?
You can see that cooling comes down.
Wow, it doesn't, it work, it's working.
Bidenomics is working.
That's really not that big of
a change.
I mean, if this is where we were, how come
why?
Why is it so hard to make ends meet?
Why are our credit cards all maxed to the limit?
While we're arguing over the numbers like 2.5 and 3.2 month to month, let me show you the actual chart.
See, that was just one year.
Let me take you all the way back to 1950.
This is 1950.
Here's 2020.
This is Trump,
and this is the inflation that we had from
Biden and Harris.
The government wants you to
focus on this, okay?
But let me just show you.
This,
this right here,
that is this.
It's this little tiny bit.
I don't know if you can zoom in enough.
Can't notice it.
Yeah.
You slide down.
It's that big.
I mean, that is.
When you look at the actual chart,
down from what is the question.
Down from what?
Yeah.
It's down from all-time highs that they are responsible for.
Yep.
They're bragging about bringing a slight decrease from a historic increase.
That's their responsibility.
And they're saying, elect us
because we'll do slightly better than the worst of all time, which was also us.
You know, but don't worry because she'll allow you to have a gun in your house.
Because if anybody comes into her house, she's going to, well, it won't be her.
Yeah, it will be Secret Service.
But you can have a gun.
And I want to know
how many rounds in your clip.
Right.
How many rounds do you have?
Do you have a six shooter, a seven, a 10, a 12, a 20?
What do you have in that clip?
Because that's exactly how she would refer to it.
Well, I can hold seven rounds, but I only put one.
How many bullets do you need?
Really?
At times, I'll put two or three in because I might be nervous and miss the first couple.
You know, I haven't been to the range in a while.
Hope I don't hit anybody else.
It's incredible.
It's incredible.
As they are making things more dangerous in America, as they are making crime easier to commit, as they are making more people into criminals because they can't afford to live,
as they're importing criminals into the country, they want to take away your guns.
Oh, okay.
All right.
That sounds good.
Wait a minute, but you're going to bolster the police.
No, no, we're going to reimagine the police.
Oh.
Okay.
You know, something tells me that we're headed in the wrong direction.
But Oprah,
she knows we're absolutely fine and there's nothing to worry about.
After all, she went to Reverend White Wright's church, too.
She knows the truth.
In every house, there is some poor sap that gets, you know, all the really fun jobs.
Used to be me, but that's why I prayed that we would have a boy.
at one point and we do so now all the stupid things like get up on that ladder boy get up there Dad, I'm only six.
Get your butt up the ladder.

10 seconds, station ID.
So I was noticing in the hallway here at Glenn, at our fabulous studios,
it's difficult to walk anywhere in a straight line
because you have built what seems to be a massive art studio in the hallway,
which is really impressive.
And now they have all the paintings are actually hung.
They're amazing.
They're incredible.
I really are incredible.
You really, you didn't.
You didn't.
Well,
do I doubt you often?
Yes.
That's what you're about to ask.
Yeah, I was just going to say.
You had no idea.
No, I mean, I can't.
You apparently have
you've actually...
I mean, I am not
an expert in the world of art.
Neither am I.
Well, I mean,
but I know what I like.
You know, you know what you like.
But
I know you know what you like, but it's interesting.
Like, these guys are obviously like world-class.
Oh, this is not like, hey, a bunch of people I like, and they put flags all over things so they look Republican-ish.
That's not what this is.
This is like incredible.
It's beautiful.
Have you seen Thomas Black Shear?
He's one of the best artists, I think, in the country.
I mean,
these are all big names, these artists, and they have done, like Black Shear's done, the Proclamation, the Emancipation Proclamation with Lincoln statue and black man with broken chains and the flag.
And it's
incredible.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, that's incredible.
Unbelievable.
Yeah, I can't even,
I mean,
I can't even imagine the amount of time it takes to do this stuff.
It's artistry that I can't comprehend as a human being.
It's like watching people do certain levels of gymnastics.
And you're like, how the hell do they do four flips in a row and land?
Like, I don't understand it.
That's what I feel like when I look at that stuff.
I know.
It's great.
And, you know, I put it put it together for this time because I think we need a shot in the arm of feeling good about our country.
You know, come and see the art.
I think their tickets still available tomorrow,
but I don't know.
I haven't had an update in a couple of days.
So
if you want to come, just go to Glenbeck.com, get your tickets, $25, and it's a museum as well.
So some of the artifacts that we have in the museum are with the paintings.
What inspired these guys to paint these paintings?
And I can see this being really inspiring if you happen to come.
But why is this more of a, because this seems like more of a long-term project for you?
You've been working on this for a long time.
It's not just about one art show.
So this is, well, first of all, we've been working for four or five years working with painters, trying to help them learn story.
Some of these guys know story really well.
Others,
there's a guy at the end, Josh Clare.
He is amazing.
Have you seen the barns?
I don't think I've seen those yet.
So I am not a fan of barn paintings because they're usually just a barn in a field.
However, he has made made them that it screams America.
It screams the values and the things that are being lost that we want to preserve.
Okay.
It's amazing.
And so all of these paintings, it really comes from this inspiration of
a lot of my friends, a lot of people that I know out west, especially have the prayer at Valley Forge.
You know that painting, right?
Prayer at Valley Forge, and it's hanging in everybody's house.
And, you know, I go over to people's house and there it is hanging in their house.
That is something that is so important because if you had that hanging in your house, you remember that painting.
You grew up with that image of George Washington and a humble president on his knees.
Okay.
Can you imagine what would happen?
Because
these are all for sale
right now.
And so we've got a bunch of rich people coming and we hope to just bilk them.
Because if it doesn't, no, if it doesn't sell, if these don't sell, these artists will probably go, well, I'm not going to do that one again.
Yeah, and they got to make a living.
But if you take, like, let's just say, the black shear, where you have Abraham Lincoln,
you know, the monument with the Emancipation Proclamation written behind it, it's just beautiful.
And then this unbelievable, strong black man in front with broken chains and the American flag draped around him.
If that was sitting in
40%
of
black homes or white homes even,
think of the impact that one piece of art could have.
This isn't about, they got to make money, so they are, they're charging, you know, that's a $70,000 painting.
It is gorgeous.
So it would hang in one man's house.
No,
no.
What I'm trying to convince these guys of, great, sell your paintings.
Now,
let's work together.
Let's go to places like Hobby Lobby and make these into posters and prints so people can have them in their home all over the country.
So it reminds people of what we, who we are and what we are.
That's a way to impact culture.
There's movies, there's all kinds of, but art is so important.
That meaningless art was really pushed by communists.
The art that doesn't mean anything.
Well, let's reverse that process.
That's why this art show is so important.
It's not about this one show.
It is about selling these paintings to rich people.
But that's just a show to prove the theory out that I've said to these guys, look, guys, I think there's a wider audience for this.
And I think if you paint these stories, I think you'll make a lot of money on those things because, you know, there's rich people out there that like this kind of stuff.
Hopefully that's true.
I was bluffing.
I have no idea.
But then if they sell,
then we can get these things into everybody's house.
And
you totally change.
Now new artists coming up will go, oh, I don't have to make a painting of a jet, a flag, and a soldier.
to be popular.
And honestly, I have had one guy who is very high up in the art world.
I mean, on the, you know, the
Council of the Met and everything else.
And he has told me stories.
He said, Glenn, it's intentional.
When you go to art school, you are intentionally told, forget all the masters, forget all of that stuff.
You know, odd art is the way to go.
Make it all about you and your dark feelings.
And by the way, conservatives,
they like red, white, and blue, and soldiers and
jets.
And so that's why it was intentional to take art away from people who love the country.
We are putting it back.
For more information, go to Glennbeck.com.
It happens this weekend.
Glenn Beck.
All righty then.
Let me tell you about real estate agents.
I trust jot.com.
Real estate agents, I mean, there's two kinds.
It's a job or
it's an art and a craft.
I mean,
this is why I love
so many things that are handmade,
because it's a craft and an art.
You know, you could put anything into Chat GPT and, okay, good.
Oh, look at that painting it just made.
No,
look at what, when you come to this art show, if you see it, I want you to look at Alvin Veselka's paintings close up.
Every brushstroke, there's so many in there, and it's crazy the time it has taken him to make this beautiful painting.
So everybody's job should be a little like art.
It's a craft.
Even Sarah, I mean,
I mean, she sits behind that board every day.
But she has crafted her job.
She is good at it.
And the more booze she has, the better she's
gone.
You should move on.

Go check out the details, Glennbeck.com.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad that you're here.
Let me
break some news here.
You might not have heard.
It's really not leading the news in the mainstream media for some reason.
I just can't figure out why.
An ACBLU donor
shot President Donald Trump July 13th.
Another AC Blue donor attempted to assassinate him on Sunday.
And it turns out that they've now arrested an Alaska man.
He was arrested two days ago.
Did you even hear this story?
I did.
Okay, you did.
I don't think many people did.
Yeah, okay.
He was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly threatening to torture and slaughter six U.S.
Supreme Court justices.
It's weird.
He'd stop at six.
Yeah.
I wonder why.
What's six?
Well, it's six, three.
I don't know if that's
a specific six.
It could be any of them.
Could be any of them.
We don't know.
We have no idea.
He might have taken
probably the women and
you know what I mean?
And killed them twice.
Maybe he did it by height.
Maybe he was looking for the six shortest justices.
I don't know.
So
he's given 80 contributions to Act Blue and the Democrats.
Anyway, Department of Justice announced Thursday that he's been charged with nine counts of making threats against a federal judge and 13 counts of making threats on interstate commerce.
The DOJ refrained from indicting or indicating which six justices he was after.
So we don't know.
We just don't know.
Who could possibly guess?
I don't know.
What would an Act Blue donor want from the supreme court like can we we can't answer that question we don't know we don't have any idea he said uh the justice department said they that this was intended to intimidate the six unnamed justices and retaliate against them for actions they had taken in their official capacity as federal justices Which six, which happened?
I don't know.
He allegedly threatened to hang a specific justice from an oak tree, but we don't know which one.
To lynch another, and to kill a third by putting a bullet in his head.
He also threatened to behead, strangle, and or drown all six, as well as gun down all of their family members.
Again, the story says
it's unclear what six justices,
what they might have done to draw the ire of the Democratic donor.
I swear to you, that is in the story.
Stop it.
And I will say, every story that I read about this had the same sort of disclaimers on it.
We all know what six they were.
They were the
conservative ones.
And again, with air quotes, we're talking about John Roberts in that quote.
But yeah,
the conservative justices are the ones that were being targeted by the ACT Blue donor.
I mean, I...
It's theoretically.
I understand that you have to say allegedly or you have to have some sort of qualification if you don't have the facts locked down.
But can we at least include the obvious in these stories?
The Blaze story did.
Okay, good.
It says, although it's unclear,
their June 2022 decision on
Dobbs versus Jackson Women's Health Organization did anger some pro-abortion extremists.
No, I hadn't noticed.
I hadn't noticed that.
Well, I mean, you could have seen the, you know, the hate crimes and terrorist attacks targeting pro-life centers or churches or individuals.
You know, that all happened, but they don't really need to cover that that either.
Because they're not for violence, they're not violent at all.
I, it's, you know, whose fault this is,
Donald Trump.
Oh my gosh, I can't take it.
Of course, of course, it is.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, by the way, there's something else.
The, you know, remember that thing, what was it called?
Oh, it's the most dangerous moment since the Civil War.
January 6th.
Of course, yeah.
So,
January 6th, apparently,
the National Guard was
standing by, ready to come in.
Within nine minutes, they were ready and calling and say, we're ready to come.
And
Nancy Pelosi's sergeant-at-arms said no.
And then when they finally asked,
when the National Guard asked,
Again, like an hour later, are you sure you don't need the National Guard?
He said, well, it's in committee now.
We're trying to get a hold of everybody and find out if we should call them because I don't want to higgledy-biggledy call out the National Guard, you know, have people here that can control things.
It is the first time in 219 years, the history of the National Guard, that they were not allowed to respond to a riot in Washington, D.C.
First time.
And it was Nancy Pelosi's office that stopped it.
And finally, finally, after discussing it and making sure they got everything right,
it was three hours and 19 minutes later they said, you can come.
Everything was over by the time they got there.
Now,
that sounds like maybe
there's something that we should probably, I don't know, look into.
Something doesn't seem right about that one.
Are you talking about the day democracy died?
Yeah, the day democracy died.
Oh, my gosh.
Congressman, Congressman Congressman Matt Gates says he has a homeland security whistleblower, claims five assassin teams are now hunting Donald Trump.
Can I just ask you a question?
This is
five.
What does it feel like to be Melania Trump or Baron
or any of the kids?
What does it feel like to be them today?
You know, my wife and I were talking about it last night.
We were on our way to a fundraiser, and
I was talking about Trump and his family.
And I said, you know, the one thing, and I said this even when I was, you know, an anti-Trumper, a forever anti-Trumper.
The one thing you cannot
question is his children.
His children obviously love him,
but
look at who those children are.
I mean, they're all successful.
They're all normal.
He had three wives.
So he has children from three different marriages.
Somehow or another, this guy who hates women found a way to co-parent with these women.
And by the way,
when you hate women, what you do is you
marry strong, strong women.
That's what you do.
Cause, you know.
Oh, no, that.
Yeah, it's only Putin that is afraid of strong mixed race women.
So,
anyway, look at his children.
They're kind.
They're charitable.
They're not screwed up.
Look at his daughters.
I mean, doesn't that say something about the guy?
You know, he's writing all these books about,
you know, how to be successful.
I think he should, and I mean this sincerely.
I think he should write one on parenting and being a dad, because I don't know how he did it.
Look how wealthy they are and how
and how
independent and how successful each of them are in their own way.
And happy.
They seem happy.
And he has obviously a very unique perspective of how being a parent in a very unique environment, let's put it that way.
Like, right?
Like he's gone through a lot.
He's been in the public eye.
He's been very successful running businesses, all these other things.
You know, there is, there are a lot of people out there who are in situations not to Trump's level, but that are somewhat similar in their work lives, trying to figure out how to balance that with their family.
How do you do it if you're trying to do both of those things at the same time?
It would be fast.
It would be a fascinating, I will say, it would be a fascinating read.
So, my kids,
I was going to Mar-Lago, I don't know, a year, year and a half ago, two years ago, and Tanya is just so unimpressed with everything.
She just is like,
We have to dress up.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, I've got some things I got to do.
She's just not impressed by any of it, which has kept me very, very sane and grounded.
But we were invited to go to Mar-Lago and she's like,
gee, I think pretty much anything other than that would be good.
And she's like that with anything that is, you know, it's not like the Met Ball or the Oscars.
She would be like, no.
Anyway,
so I invite invite my two kids and I call and I say, hey, can I bring my two kids instead of my wife?
She's sick.
And
they're like, yeah, sure, bring.
So I get there and he's like, where's Cheyenne and Rafe?
And I said, they didn't finish their homework.
And
I wondered what he was going to say.
And he said, what do you mean?
And I said, I told them for three days, you don't get all your homework done.
You're not coming with me.
And he looked at me and he put his hand out and he shook my hand and he said, good for you, dad.
And he said, can I make a quick video for him?
And I said, sure.
I should find it.
I said, sure.
And he took the phone, started the video and he said, Rafe and Cheyenne, I am so sorry I didn't get a chance to meet you, but your dad did the right thing.
When you finish your homework and you get good grades, you come out and see me.
I mean, that was
cool.
Oh, that's really cool.
So there's some other things that are in the news today.
We have the five assassin teams that apparently, three of them, they say, two of them are domestic and three of them are foreign.
Can somebody help me
with
what happens in this country if Donald Trump is shot and killed?
God.
I think people,
somebody said this, and I wish I could remember who it was, but someone pointed this out.
I I thought it was a good observation, which was basically like, I think a lot of people look at this almost like a soap opera, and they look at this as like entertainment.
Nothing's real in New England.
Yeah, and you kind of look at this and, oh my gosh, this would be an amazing development in this Netflix series if that guy got shot, right?
Like, that's how I think a lot of people look at this.
The entire country is at risk if something like this actually occurs and works from the assassin's perspective.
We are in mass.
We're close to the brink as it is.
I know.
I know.
Can you imagine if something like this actually happened?
Imagine God only knows.
You're not going to trust anybody.
Have you heard what's happening with the investigation?
Ron DeSantis has taken over the investigation from the FBI.
He said yesterday, I'm concerned.
We have been rebuffed by the FBI and DOJ.
Our investigators
were rebuffed just going to the fence line outside of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm.
So they're doing an investigation.
The federal government wouldn't let them even get close to the fence line.
He said, here's the thing.
There are multiple violations of Florida law across multiple jurisdictions.
We think at least three judicial circuits, this guy committed potential violations of Florida law.
We have a duty to investigate this.
We have a duty to bring the appropriate charges.
We also have a duty to inform the public of how this happened.
If something happens to this guy,
And it could be done by Russia, it could be done by Iran,
do you think
that's what everybody's going to think?
Everybody's going to think, yeah, it might have been done by Iran, but where the hell was the Department of Justice?
Where was Secret Service?
Where was the FBI?
You knew this was coming.
You said it.
It's the ultimate Bubba effect.
Back in just a second, 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.
You know, yesterday
she said somebody comes into my house.
I got my gun
and I'm gonna pew pew, shoot them down.
Anyway, good ranchers.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Welcome to the Glen Beck program.
So I just have to ask a question.
Staff noticed something, and I don't know.
This could be a frequency illusion.
It could be a signal in the economy.
It could be just a coincidence.
It could be just this is the pace of it all.
But somebody on the staff noticed that a lot of CEOs in the last couple of weeks have stepped down.
The Nestle chief executive, the Norfolk Southern CEO, Lipton Tees, CEO,
300 Entertainment, CEO, Campari, CEO, Warner Music, Nike,
all stepping down.
And that's from, let's see, August 23rd to September 19th.
And
I mean, I don't know.
It's It's probably just a coincidence, but
with everything that's going on in the economy, I think maybe we should keep our eye on that.
That was my instruction to the team.
Let's just keep an eye on that.
And maybe somebody knows more than we do about this kind of stuff.
I'm sure there are.
It's a pretty smart audience.
And I, you know, I do question your intelligence because you listen to this show every day.
Terrible mistake.
That really does make us question, you know.
Yeah.
they're not as smart as we thought they were, you know?
Right.
That is interesting, though.
There's a frequency that might be normal.
Might be normal.
But
it feels a little odd.
Yeah.
Just because everything is, I don't know.
I don't know.
You watch what happens if Kamala wins.
I think if Donald Trump wins, you're going to see the economy just.
start to roar before he can even do anything.
Yeah, the anticipation.
The anticipation.
People will be like, my money's going to be safe.
But if she wins,
I mean, the things, I mean, well, she's, I mean, she's told us what she's going to do to the economy, you know, and we can trust her because she's from a middle-class upbringing.
Yeah.
And, you know,
she's talking about an opportunity economy.
And what that means is
I have a neighbor with a lawn, and that lawn
is a point of pride
in a middle class.
Maybe you can't understand.
A lot of people can understand this, though.
Lawns.
Right.
Lawns.
Were there nurses that were neighbors?
Nurses and lawns
is my...
The foundation of my opportunity economy is our nurses and lawns.
Right.
You know, and if you just...
If you put nurses on lawns, don't pretend you don't understand.
No, yeah, exactly.
You racist.

To compromise,
we gotta stay together.
And if we're gonna survive,
stay the strength
and hold alive.
It's a new day, a time to rise.
Welcome to the fusion of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Hello, America.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We want to look at some of the polls.
In particular,
we want to talk to Robert Cahaley.
He is from the Trafalgar Group.
He's the chief pollster there.
Trafalgar is, I think, the most accurate and the one that has really
seen the things that are behind the scenes, the submerged Trump voter in 2016.
Is there a submerged voter this time?
And are they being represented in election polling?
The Trafalgar group is fantastic, and Robert really knows his stuff.
He'll give us a clear understanding of that in 60 seconds.
First, when it comes to personal defense, I mean, I don't know if you heard yesterday,
but Kamala Harris, she tied up her horse.
She said somebody comes into my house.
I got my gun,
and I'm going to kill them.
Wow, she is just,
she's a cowboy, really.
And I believe every word of that.
Anyway, the Berna launcher, in case you don't want to kill the guy,
there are things, you know, like a knife, a taser, maybe some pepper spray.
Or I got brass knuckles.
I'm going to hit you with my brass knuckles.
I'm gonna throw them so hard it'll hurt.
You don't wanna get that close to an attacker.
There are times when it's appropriate to protect yourself and your family with non-lethal means, and that's where the Burna Launcher comes in.
I have the Burna Launcher.
My wife has a Burna Launcher.
My daughters have a Burna Launcher.
My son has a Burna Launcher.
And it is a compliment to my firearms.
There are situations, quite a few actually, where less lethal is the way to go.
And Burna is the best alternative to deadly force.
The Burna Launcher has powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60-foot range and one shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes.

Robert K.
Haley joins us now.
Hello, Robert.
How are you?
Robert, are you there?
I am here.
Oh, good.
How are you, sir?
I am absolutely doing great.
Good.
And just happy to be on the show.
Yeah.
Well, thank you for coming on.
I wanted to talk to you about a couple of things.
First of all, when I saw the poll at the Teamsters
and the Teamsters voted, I don't know what it was, 64 to 34, something like that, for Donald Trump, I thought that's the way this election should be if it were any other time.
Why are the Teamsters so far out of line with what we see
in polling?
Why?
Because they're normal blue-collar workers.
Why aren't we seeing that elsewhere?
Well, I mean, I think we are seeing it to a degree.
When you look at what's in the guts of what's wrong, it's more
Trump's numbers with senior voters are a real problem.
I mean, the first thing everybody forgets, they're saying, well,
Republicans used to do great with seniors, and now we're not doing so bad.
Because all the hippies are now seniors.
That's why.
Exactly.
That's what you're trying to explain.
Like, Graves Generation and Silent Generation are dying, and they're being replaced by baby boomers.
Right.
And they're not as conservative as those people were.
That's the first thing.
Right.
And second, Kamala has
come at them with prescription drugs and
all those things
for this amount of time.
And Biden won them in the midst of the pandemics.
And Trump is not doing what he needs to.
He can be at dead even or ahead with seniors, but it needs to be a huge focus because they vote disproportionate to any other age group
at the participation level.
So that is one of the biggest weaknesses now that the campaign has a lot of strength.
One, doing better with black voters than they have before, doing better with the young voters, not young, I mean the youngest voters, because while millennials tend to be more left to center, the Gen Zs
are the opposite.
There's a lot of Gen Z's, especially Gen Z males, that are trending much more conservative.
And a lot of that has to do with
the crazy role that
the difficult...
The difficulty of growing up and being a male in this environment and looking for real male role models where the society is pushing everything like toxic masculinity and all this nonsense on people.
You know, something they can grasp onto.
So, Robert,
where does this
election look to you where it is going?
Is it going to be as razor thin as everybody thinks?
It is very razor thin.
And even in the most recent round of polling
that we did, that I'm going to give you a couple caveats on that.
The most recent round of polling that we did, and Matt Tyrey and I have been dividing up the states and doing the seven battleground states.
His firm would do those half.
And Matt's my co-host with the Polling Plus podcast once a week.
Check us out.
We talk about everything polling and kind of fill people in on where we are.
But we divided up the states.
And in everyone, Trump has a very small edge other than Nevada, which we had him a little behind.
Now,
first thing to remember, most of these polls started right after the debate
or a couple of days after the debate.
And the only two that finished on the Sunday
of the second assassination attempt,
those two were Pennsylvania and Georgia.
And both of those, if that poll had finished, either one of our polls had finished on Saturday, he would have been losing.
But that he upticked so much that it bounced the whole poll forward.
And so what I will tell you is when you look at these polls, look at the dates, and the ones that are really long, like four or five days that started after the debate, have the biggest margins.
And the ones that completed more after Sunday afternoon, you see a strength.
We don't know exactly how strong that is going to be, but the second attempt was just
really galvanizing and just
aligning the sand too far.
Now, the other thing to remember is some of these polls
don't actually poll voters.
They use online panels for some or all of their sounds.
Now, online panels are made up of people who participate in these things who are more politically active.
and aware than most voters.
And that being the case, we're a lot less, less the shock value of a second assassination attempt on people who have been tuned into the stuff moment to moment just wasn't there the way it is with real voters.
Now,
first thing, it is very
strong possibility that there is a hidden Trump vote.
We are working to determine how much of that there is this year.
A lot of the hidden people in the past aren't hidden anymore, but there are new people
on the left or on the Democratic side, right?
Well,
there are new people that, you know, maybe four years ago were Republicans who just didn't like Trump and figured Biden was conservative,
as conservative a Democrat as they could get, and he was moderate, and he keeps, and they have buyers with Morris, and a lot of them are coming back.
They don't want to tell their neighbors they're coming back.
They don't want to put a sign in their yard, but they're coming back.
And Trump's strength with Democrats is also significant.
Like Pennsylvania is a great example.
Trump does better with Democrats than Kamala does with Republicans.
Now, we hear all the time about Kamala and all this Republican supports he has, but that's a fact, and that continues to be the fact.
And some of these races, yes, sir.
Why hasn't the
combination
of
Kamala, I mean, I'm sorry, not Kamala, Tulsi,
Elon Musk, RFK, has that made a difference or an impact at all?
Yes.
It has.
No question.
I mean, think about the onslaught Trump has had to deal with from the time she got in this race and all the media love and the good publicity and hardly anything negative about her.
I don't know that any candidate without
a Tulsi or an Elon or RFK could have survived that.
I think all those factors go into keeping this race close.
People say, oh, the race hasn't moved a lot.
Well,
it's like saying
the boat has been steady, not realizing that the boat has dodged like six torpedoes.
I mean, yeah, it may have been steady, but it did a lot of work to get there.
Right.
And
it's been a lot to get this level
because it is just so overwhelming.
And the spending, I mean, one of the biggest problems is that the Democrats, like them or not, they are good at this stuff.
They spend their money wisely.
And their party is not full, and I'm just going to say it, full of a lot of grifters.
And the Republican Party has a problem on the right.
that so many of the big donors are giving massive amounts of money to super PACs that are inept, you know, running commercials that are 1990s with a bunch of paid actors, like I'm a cowboy, I'm a nurse.
Nonsense.
They can charge big money for them, but they can make lots of money.
And
or PACs that raise money and they sell them on some kind of cock and maybe scheme that isn't even real.
I mean, there is so much of this going on.
And in many ways, the Trump campaign and like the MAGA Inc.
are the ones like lifting all this up and they're not getting the help they should.
So they're being outspent massively.
And the Democrats have a tremendous ground operation.
So I don't just talk about technology.
I talk about people on the ground in these communities.
Let me ask you the
what is the, if you have any indication, what is the thing that is turning independents and Democrats?
What is the case that is the easiest to turn people and go, well, you know, I got a good point there.
Maybe I should think about Trump?
You know who said it?
Bernie Sanders.
When he said,
I still think she's a progressive, she's saying what she needs to do to get elected.
That idea that she's telling you what you need to hear to win, and it isn't what she really believes,
that is the thing, the feedback we get the most.
That thing,
that she is disingenuous, because once you establish that somebody isn't what they say they are, it all falls.
Then it doesn't matter what they say anymore.
Their words are meaningless.
And so that is the thing is that, yes, she sounds good, but and those and those are some of the blows.
Don't be wrong, I'm not one of those people who think Trump's had a good debate.
I don't.
But what I do think is that
it was exacerbated by by the
moderators getting so involved.
But the licks he landed were the most important ones where he said, well, if you believed it, why didn't you do it?
You've been there.
He made that case because in our incident poll and all the others, it said she won.
I mean, it was like
55, 43, and two thought was tied, that she won.
But in the race, it started tied before,
and after it was still tied.
And in all these groups, even the New York Times ran a story about how pundits say she won, but undecided voters aren't moved.
And that's the key:
she didn't have that effect because
while she came across a lot better than people thought,
that idea that she's telling you what you want to hear
is
seeping through.
And we get that from focus groups and just this, that she's trying to be what she wants to be.
And like Bernie Sanders said,
I think she's progressive.
She's saying what she has to do to win an election.
Yeah.
I mean, that's the whole campaign.
I will tell you that I really think the Trump campaign should, at all of their rallies, 30 minutes before he walks out, should just be running the videos of here's what she said then, here's what she said now, here's what she said then, here's what she said now, and then intersperse that with Bernie Sanders saying that.
You know, I think she's just saying she's still a progressive, but I think she's just saying that to get the votes.
Because I think most
Americans that are not plugged in, they're not getting it from the mainstream media.
You have to spoon feed it to them.
They don't see the old clips.
All they're seeing is her
not answering questions.
And that will leave some doubt.
But when you see why why she's not answering those questions, I think it it closes the deal on that.
Robert, thank you so much.
They're just fantastic.
Yeah, they do.
Robert, thank you so much.
I appreciate it.
We'll stay in touch with you.
Appreciate it.
Yes, sir.

All right, let me take a quick break.
International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, coming up on October 6th of this year, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews would like to welcome you to join them in flags of fellowship.
It's an opportunity for us Christians to remember the victims and heroes of Israel and to honor them, to pray for those who
are still held hostage.
God
bless those people.
Give them and their families peace.
Every time I think of them, I think...
If they are still alive, what they are going through.
We need to stand with Israel, and we don't need to fight their wars for them or anything else, but we need to be able to say,
We stand with the Jewish people.
We know history, and we know where God's blessings fall.
Your generous donation today will not only provide a flag for churchyards all across the country, but it will also support the fellowship's ongoing emergency efforts in the Holy Land.
We cannot remain silent.
We have to get up,
get off your butt, and get down onto the field.
The sidelines is where anti-Semitism spreads like wildfire.
Israel needs you now.

Two of the biggest heists in human history are currently underway.
The personal wealth of every American is being dissolved at a breakneck pace.
Honestly, even if you listen to the show every day and you've read my books, I think you just have a beginning understanding of how they're going to bankrupt all of us.
Because as the author of those books and as the guy who does this show every day, so I have to listen to every word of it.
You think you got it, bad.
I got it.
I'm forced to listen to all of it every day.
Anyway,
I'm just starting to really understand how they're going to bankrupt all of us.
But they're now seizing land, natural resources.
It's already a law passed.
It'll start in 2025 if we don't wake up.
It'd be nice to have a strong leader in the White House right now while this is going on, but there's something else.
Trump is not running against Harris.
He is running against the United Nations, the World Economic Forum, the Center for American Progress, the European Union, George Soros,
the puppets that are sitting in Washington, D.C.
at the White House.
They're overseeing the seizure of private property and the redistribution of wealth globally.
We did a
show on Wednesday.
It's available now on YouTube.
It was my Wednesday night special.
This weekend, something begins at the United Nations.
We'll be talking about it every day next week.
We have to pay attention to this.
It is unprecedented, and it is moving in parallel with legislation currently taking place in our own government and governments all over the world.
It is global governance, and
it is real, gang.
It is real.
Don't miss the Wednesday night special, 9 p.m.
It was on the blaze every week.
This time we came out on Wednesday.
It is now on YouTube where you can watch it for free.

By the way, I got a really disturbing phone call yesterday
from the Patriot Mobile PAC.
There is some, this is, this is not
good.
We are about to lose Tarrant County to Red.
They are doing everything they can to
Tarrant County here in Texas.
It's Fort Worth.
Okay.
And
the Patriot Mobile Action
says that we are on the verge of losing Tarrant County because everybody is spending money except the Republicans there.
They just are taking it for granted.
And
they are out.
I mean, remember, these are the guys who won the Patriot Mobile Action group.
won 11 school board races,
resulting in conservatives taking over those school boards, four of them.
They
are really trying to make sure that it is solid blue for, sorry, sorry, solid red for Cruz, but also for our sheriff.
We have one of the best sheriffs in the country in Tarrant County, and he's got to win.
He's got to win.
People are not paying attention to Texas.
Ted Cruz could lose Tarrant County.
You remember, Tarrant County did not, it went for Biden last time.
Yeah, it's a pretty purple county.
Yeah, well, it's turning red.
And George Soros...
Red or blue?
You keep saying red.
Sorry, sorry.
Blue.
Okay.
George Soros has now his people have spent, I think it's $17 million in Tarrant County.
Pritzker has
done $1.2 million.
And Bloomberg has done $3.7 million just in that county.

I know a few things about pain for years.
I mean, Stu was with me the whole time.
The pain got so bad in my hands that I just, they'd have to take the camera off my hands when we were at Fox.
Yeah, and you had this big art show going on this weekend with a lot of your paintings featured.
You couldn't even paint.
No, I couldn't paint.
I I couldn't write.
My hands were in so much pain.
But I have Relief Factor.
My wife talked me into it because,
you know,
I just, I didn't think, you know, it's a supplement.
What is that going to do?
I take my daily vitamins.
What is that doing?
But I learned a lesson here.
Don't dismiss it without trying.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
We're glad that you're here.
I don't know if you remember Tristan Harris, who's been on the program before.
He's with the Center for Humane Technology.
He's a co-founder.
Former Google Design Ethicist who left going, hey, I think there might be a problem, might be a problem here.
He is also the co-host of the podcast, Your Undivided Attention.
He has done a special on AI
that
I think is really a must-see in many ways.
Tristan is joining us now, Tristan.
Welcome.
Glad you're here.
Glad good to be with you again.
So
where are we on this road?
I mean, last time I spoke to you,
you were going to all of the big, the heads of all the big AI
corporations and you were saying, please, let's, can we, can we slow down on this?
And you weren't really,
you were learning some stuff, at least my impression was you were learning some stuff that you
kind of made things worse in my opinion, that they were a little arrogant and were kind of excited about meeting a new God.
Yeah, I actually actually remember the quote you're talking about.
Well, so when we talked last, which is about a year ago, we had just done this talk called the AI Dilemma, which led to a bunch of action and
contributed to the executive order on AI and a bunch of other things.
We did that talk, as you remember, because insiders inside the AI labs, the major AI companies, came to us saying, hey, this race is out of control.
The market pressures, the race to take shortcuts is leading us in a dangerous place.
And we made this presentation.
Oprah Winfrey saw that presentation and said, I want to help bring this conversation to the American people because the American people are not being consulted about the fate that's going to happen to them with this rollout of AI.
And so that led to this special.
And
you only get one period before a new technology gets entangled with society.
And we saw that with social media.
And it's much harder to change it after it's entangled than before.
And I think this one will be even more difficult because it's going to make everybody's life seemingly so easy.
Yeah, well, actually, this is kind of the optical illusion with AI is that it obviously is offering us unbelievable benefits.
And, you know, my mother died from cancer.
I want the cancer drugs as fast as possible.
And the way that we're building AI right now is sort of like we played the game Jenga.
I mean, if you remember the board game Jenga you played as a kid, it's like you're adding a new capability to this tower that's building our future.
Suddenly people can now make instantly videos of things that people didn't say and beautiful art.
And that's amazing, but we just pulled out this block from the foundation of society that now no one knows what's true.
We suddenly add this new capability to develop new drugs super, super fast because AI speaks the language of biology.
But then you pull out this foundational building block that a biological safety because people can also use that AI to build new dangerous things in biology, viruses and things like that.
And the inconvenient truth with AI is you can't separate the promise from the peril because the same AI that lets you instantly edit your family photos because it's been trained on all human faces and bodies can also
has also led to the proliferation of deep fake non-consensual nudes in classrooms where a student takes a photo of a classmate and instantly make them naked.
And this is causing a lot of havoc in schools.
And you can't separate those two things.
So that's why what we say is it's not about whether we're pro-AI or anti-AI.
We're about pro-steering.
We have to go from the Jenga way of building our future, where we're pulling out these foundational blocks from society, to building in a lasting and durable way.
And we believe that's possible, but we have to move to a different track.
So, Tristan,
from what I hear from my friends in big tech, people like Bill Gates and Microsoft, they are laying people off left and right and slashing all of their cost and dumping it into AI and are moving as fast as they can because all of these companies know if we don't win, we're out.
It's over.
Is that true?
What you're saying is correct.
The companies are cutting costs everywhere and focusing on
energy investments because it takes a huge amount of energy to power AI.
And they're doing this to race as fast as possible to build it
now I know the thing that many of your listeners are probably thinking and that we talked about last time is but if we don't build it as fast as possible what about China they're gonna build it faster than we are but when someone tells you what about China what I want people to memorize is but what about social media because the US beat China to social media did that make us stronger or weaker and we would argue that a more addicted, outraged, polarized, you know, breakdown of shared truth, sexualized, you know, mental health, having all these problems with young people, this has actually net made us much weaker.
So we're not in a race with China to build technology.
We're in a race with China.
To the extent we're in a race, we're in a race for who is better and wiser at integrating this into their society such that it strengthens every pillar, every foundational building block that leads to that strong, lasting future.
And I know this might seem daunting, but there's a lot of very simple things we can do because right now we're basically not doing anything.
And it can start with simple things like liability.
The companies should be accountable for the harms that they create.
We learned that lesson from social media.
If you pull out foundational building blocks or drive polarization and drive mental health issues, that lands on society's balance sheet.
They're not responsible for that.
AI companies need to be held liable and accountable.
And we talked about that in the Oprah special.
We can also do things like protecting whistleblowers, because I'm sure many people listening know that the government may not have all of the expertise in AI yet.
It's moving incredibly fast.
And in lieu of that, we need to protect the whistleblowers who are the safety-oriented people inside of the AI companies so that when there's a red light flashing on the control council, they are able to speak up as much as possible.
This is so much more dangerous than anything we ever did with nukes and nuclear power plants and
everything else.
I mean, this could absolutely be the end of humans if it would go really wrong.
And I mean, maybe that's just me, Tristan.
I mean, I am both thrilled and excited about what it could do and also,
I think,
educated enough on the possible dangers that I am also truly frightened by it.
Yeah.
I think that that is appropriate.
I think that the human mind has a difficulty in dealing with positive infinity of benefits.
Literally, if you have intelligence that you can automate, you can invent every drug you ever needed.
You can
literally point an AI at science and say, go find me the next big scientific discoveries that are as big as the scientific discovery that led to the atomic bomb.
So it can generate a whole bunch of energy insights, but it can also generate a whole bunch of new weapons of mass destruction.
And so the thing that's difficult about AI is our mind has a difficult time dealing with both a positive infinity that if you look to that side of the balance sheet, man, looks pretty darn good.
But at the same time, on the other side, there's a negative infinity.
And
a lot of people who are building AI, we're from Silicon Valley.
We talk to people who are tapped to AI labs
relatively often.
Inside of the Bay Area where the labs are located, people think that they're going to get to AGI between, you know, two
to seven years.
And seven years might sound like a slightly longer time, but if there was seven years to something where, oh, so we should say what AGI is, AGI is artificial general intelligence.
It means basically matching human capability across all kinds of tasks.
So anything a human can do, an AI could do.
You could just
swap out a human from your workplace, from your science lab, from your Manhattan project, plop in an AI replacement, and they would be able to do all the human
can do.
And better.
And to your point, you know, OpenAI just released a new model called O1 that now basically is PhD level in biology, chemistry,
and physics.
It makes embarrassing mistakes at the same time, but it's still
really good.
If you do that, you give that to Hamas.
If Hamas ever got that, I mean,
they would have the world's best scientist at their disposal, correct?
That's right.
And that's why we need to treat this technology like you said.
Like I think we did the nuclear race.
We didn't just say, let's open source nuclear reactors and
literally ship everybody nuclear fissile material to go work on diverse approaches of a nuclear reactor.
We ought to be more careful.
Now, there's sort of two long-term trajectories with AI.
One is
if you just lock it up into a handful of companies,
you're in real trouble too.
You get a concentration of power.
And, you know, one question you could ask is, who would you trust
to be a trillion times more powerful?
Nobody.
Any government, any company, is there any government or company you would trust to be a trillion times more powerful?
So, yeah, difficult question.
No, it's an easy question.
No.
There's no one I trust.
I wouldn't trust the most ethical people on earth.
I wouldn't trust the
most
godlike people on earth that are really just humble.
And no, no one.
That is way too much power to have.
Way too.
It is the power of
what some people will claim in the end to be God.
It will seem like a God to people.
Yeah.
Well, even Elon Musk posted that joke when someone asked, is there a God?
And then it's a little comic, you know, online meme.
And someone asked, is there a God?
And then
they're asking the AI once they built it, the question, is there a God?
And then the AI responds, there is now.
And that's
one of the outcomes.
The other outcome is
you say, I don't want this to be locked up in a couple of companies, you know, five companies that are racing to build it.
I want to decentralize it so everyone can have it and maybe fight back.
But then that's like, again, shipping everybody bags of nuclear fissile material and say, well, maybe you can build your own nuclear reactor to fight back against the people who have nuclear reactors.
It's like, we need a different approach to this.
I do believe that's possible, but it would take everybody having, I think, a level of caution and concern and a kind of humility that you're expressing here, which is this is the most powerful transformative technology we've ever built.
It's moving super fast.
And this is the slowest, dumbest, and least powerful it will ever be.
Yes.
And we are the slowest and dumbest that I think we've been in a very long time.
But good news is we're getting faster at getting dumber.
Can you hang on just a sec, Tristan?
I want to ask you one more question about what California just did
and Gavin Newsom in outlawing AI for, I think it was for political ads, but it's a little broader than that.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
Coming up in just a second first.
I don't know if you know this, but I come from a middle-class background, and the people in my neighborhood were really proud of their lawns.
And they were proud of the part of the lawn that got stuck in the gutters all the time.
Well,
those things actually grew out of the lawns.
They were called trees back then and the leaves would fall out of the trees and go into the gutters.
In short, the people in my neighborhood,
they were, well,
they were proud of their lawns.
Let's just leave it at that.
And I think you know what that means.
The good news is...
You don't have to leave those gutters piled up with leaves, and you don't have to get up on a ladder and clean them out.
If your gutters are clogged with leaves, it will cause flooding, roof damage, rotting siding, foundation issues, all of that, and more.
You'll never have to think about your gutters again.

Tristan Harris is with us.
He's from the Center of Humane Technology, co-founder and former Google design ethicist.
He is concerned about the
artificial intelligence as I have been.
And I've been trying to get people to pay attention and have these conversations two decades ago so we wouldn't be panicked and in the situation we're in right now.
Tristan, what do you think about what California did and Gavin Newsom, where he signed three bills to crack down on artificial intelligence?
One is deep fakes related to elections 120 days before Election Day, 60 days thereafter, it's illegal to publish or create them.
Yeah,
so to be fair, I have not been closely involved with this, but as you said, just so people understand, my understanding is the law makes it illegal to create and publish deep fakes related to elections the 120 days before an election day and then 60 days thereafter.
It allows courts to stop distribution of the materials and impose civil penalties.
And he also signed a bill, I think, requiring political campaigns to publicly disclose if they're running ads with materials that are altered by AI.
See, can I ask you a question?
See, because I don't trust anybody to own AI, and I don't trust anybody really to police AI and control it.
We don't trust anybody.
But is there a way, and this is again trusting AI, is there a way that
the deep fakes could be watermarked or anything so it's it's automatically in the system.
That's right.
And that's actually the kind of legislation that we need is to make, this is actually why we support a liability-based approach, because good legislation on deep fakes is going to balance responsibility between, let's say, an end malicious user who generated.
a deepfake and the product that itself actually enabled these to be created in the first place.
And all while still acknowledging the First Amendment.
I mean, the main idea here is that humans deserve the First Amendment, but machines and robots do not deserve the First Amendment.
Now, you know, a user has a malicious intent, whether it's to influence an election or generate a non-consensual nude image or rip off someone's intellectual property by stealing their voice or their
likeness or video image,
they bear some responsibility for that.
But if the product is facilitating it in a way that's avoidable, for example, like you said, by making no effort to watermark images of public figures or making them easy to remove, or training an AI model on nude images or copyrighted content, the developer should also bear some responsibility for that.
And that's why we support this liability-based approach.
Just one note here is there's a new free and nonpartisan tool that just launched this week, actually, called true media.org.
It's an open deep fake detector.
So it's about 90% accurate.
It does not cover the 10%.
So if it's emergency, it it won't cover that.
But it's going to help with people being able to at least change.
What is the name of that website again?
It's called true media.org.
It actually got catalyzed from our meeting with the president about a year ago.
Fantastic.
Thank you very much.
Tristan, Tristan, thank you.
Watch for the special with Oprah
on AI.
The Glenn Beck program.
Let me talk to you about the Berna Launcher.
I love the Bernalauncher.
Can we just talk about how fun it is to use?
Yes.
Now, again, this is actually like a really important part of your self-defense package.
Like if you really take this stuff seriously, you should absolutely have confidence.
Firing guns, though, is fun.
We do that for a sport.
It is a blast.
It is.
And
the burner is just as fun.
In some ways, it's more fun because about burning through ammunition.
It's the cost, first of all.
You can reuse the enemy.
I don't know what it is.
The practice.
Whatever the rounds.
Projectiles, which is cool.
But also, you can see where it's going.
It's almost like a tracer.
You can see what you're doing.
You can really see where you're making mistakes.
It's a lot.
You get more out of it in some ways than you do to me at the range.
But anyway, it's just a lot.
It's a lot of fun to do.
It's a way to help get better and it's a way to protect yourself.
Right.
So an alternative to deadly force with powerful deterrents, tear gas, and kinetic rounds, which will incapacitate an attacker for 40 minutes.

It's a new day I tell you right
Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment and enlightenment
This is the Glenn Beck program
So there are some real dirtbag CEOs out there, and there's some really good ones.
And one of my favorites personally is
Bob Unanwe.
Bob is the CEO of Goya Foods.
Goya, I mean, this guy has worked, living in the American dream.
He has worked from the bottom all the way up and
did, like, I think a billion-dollar expansion of Goya Foods.
And then on their 75th anniversary, he established, now listen to this, Goya Gives initiative to support humanitarian efforts by donating millions of pounds of food each year to those in need.
Under his leadership, Goya also funds numerous nonprofit organizations, events, scholarships, and charitable programs.
He also just launched Goya Cares, a global initiative aimed at combating child trafficking and raising awareness about mental health issues affecting our children and teenagers.
He also was the executive producer on Sound of Freedom.
He is a big Trump supporter and boy, oh boy, he uttered one word, one word, and the left came at him.
He survived.
He's got a new book, Spiritual War, How the Battle for the Soul of This Country Began with One Word.
He joins me in 60 seconds.

Robert, how are you, sir?
Very good.
Good.
Thanks for having me.
You bet.
You bet.
The one word that you used that
brought hell down on you, if you will, was what?
Blessed.
That word was blessed, and it was put on my lips by the Holy Spirit.
And that's why it's a spiritual war.
By the way, I was so honored to meet you out in Utah
with Tim Ballard and Macy Barber, the courageous fighter who
we've used in some of our content for child trafficking,
a great spokeswoman for that.
And,
of course, Tim Ballard, which was the movie Sound of Freedom, was based on, on his courage.
And
he's got the OR, which is the Operation Underground OUR, I'm sorry, Operation Underground Railroad,
which is different from ORR, the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which is the middleman, which was testified to for between bringing children into this country and basically
selling them off to sponsors.
And it's
hundreds of billions of dollar industry between drugs and trafficking and 325,000 children missing just from last year versus 85,000 that Taralee Rotas testified to.
I tell you, Barbara,
the number of children that our government has just lost or misplaced or just shoved out the door because it was just too much of a hassle
is shocking.
And we're the number one consumer of child pornography and all of this stuff.
The United States is.
I mean, we are just, you know,
we can't be blessed if we continue to be these kinds of people.
Talk to me.
Describe
being a target of the cancel culture like you were.
Yes, and by the way, just for clarification, you know, it's not by accident that these things are happening.
There's money to be made.
You know, we're being invaded at the southern border, the northern border, but we're bringing these people in, these children and people, to be sold.
Then there is this parole program with Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Haiti.
I think that could be the reason you have all these Haitians in Springfield, Ohio, where
we're bringing them in under a parole system, but we're bringing in these people again.
to be handed to sponsors.
These sponsors are paying money for them, and then they're reselling them for sex and slavery.
But
what's happening with the bringing in of these people and knowingly do it.
I mean, the Biden administration with Harris
through
one of the first major bills that they
put through,
it had all the money earmarked for all of this.
You know, when she was going off to find out the reason why people are migrating, they knew the reason.
They knew the reason.
They had already paid for it.
And now we're seeing the results of it, and we're also seeing how much it's costing America, but most importantly, costing in lives and decency.
I mean, I can't believe more people are not
just livid with what is going on in their communities.
Well, the root cause, Glenn, is evil, and it's money and power.
Like the genie said to Aladdin, never drink from the cups of money and power.
You'll never be satisfied.
And I had no, I'm not even a good reader.
I had no plans to write a book.
I had no plans to be canceled, to be attacked, to be threatened.
I just wanted to give food away to the country.
I came to
Washington on July 9th of 2020
to give food away, millions of pounds, and also to be appointed a commissioner, the White House Commission on Hispanic Prosperity.
I was fired by the Biden Harrison administration.
I guess I don't believe in Latinos or Hispanics and prosperity, but obviously.
Why do you hate Hispanics so much, guys?
Right.
But you know, I s and like you say, the Hispanics, the U.S.
is the number one consumer.
The Hispanic is the number one victim being exploited by the trafficking.
It's really turning us into slavery.
But but I'm at the White House and I'm talking about Donald Trump.
And I had been there before with the Obamas Obamas on Let's Move and My Plate and eating nutritiously.
And
the Holy Spirit, I tell you, it's a spiritual thing, put the word blessed on my lips.
And I think it ignited a spiritual war.
It ignited a cancel culture.
A boycott came.
AOC was one of them.
Julian Castro, Linux Miranda, all the elites.
And, you know, actually, we did so good.
What happened after that, you know,
Eric Bowling, a good friend,
his producer, went out and did a film and
did a GoFundMe, raised over $300,000, went out and bought Goya products to give away.
And he basically started this bycott, which a lot of people grabbed on to.
And it was, again, the Holy Spirit
protecting us.
But,
you know, you make plans and God laughs.
God at that that point gave me a platform.
I wasn't, had no other intention
than to give the country food through the chief executive at a time.
But this led us on a journey, I have to say, spiritually
to
bring rosaries and food to Ukraine,
to the sound of freedom, meeting out with my good friend Eduardo Verasigi again and
highlighting awareness of the trafficking and the drugs and the mental health.
You know,
we are getting our value from, some kids are getting their value from letters, from flags, from furries.
You know, they have a map flag, a minor attracted persons.
We need to get our value, acknowledge our value from God.
We're God's gift.
And to stop, you know, we're so focused on self.
Stop for a moment.
If you see a child being harassed or bullied, just say, stop, say, leave this kid alone.
You matter.
You know, you are loved.
We can't love
others unless we love ourselves, unless we love God.
And I tell you this, Donald Trump, I think,
and the reason the Holy Spirit put this word blessed on my lips in the book, Blessed, Donald J.
Trump and the Spiritual War, is because Donald J.
Trump
has been chosen to bring this country closer to God.
He's a great guy.
He takes it on the chin every day
for us.
The hand of God has been on him.
You know, his assassinated
attempt turned his head just at the moment a bullet was going perpendicular to his head and it went parallel.
All this
are signs that we need as a country to move closer to God.
And
I believe 100%
that the person that the only person that can do this is Donald Trump.
And he risks his life every day.
He takes it on the chin every day.
What for?
Because he loves his country, loves us.
I love him, but too many people hate.
You know, we're not called to hate.
We're called to love.
And that is the only thing that is going to resolve all the issues we have is to love each other and
stop with this hatred and division.
It's interesting to me that you don't hear people talk about, I hate his policies.
They actually just hate him.
Right.
Which is,
I mean, it is causing, it's, I mean, the best way I can describe it, I think you'll agree,
is evil.
There is an evil, I don't know, like a spell that is over the world's population that is just covering all of the truth with just pure darkness.
And it's easy to see you go online and
you just start to scroll and you will see things that people have done to their bodies or the things that they're saying or shouting or that are
just biblically evil.
And
I just don't know how people don't see it, Robert.
And I worry that, you know, God will have a humble people.
And I'm not sure we've humbled ourselves enough.
You know, it's funny because there's a lot of, in my book, there's a lot of people I came across that God had spoken to.
And I said, well, you know, actually on January 5th of 2021, I was with this guy, Gary Heven, who owned Curves.
And I said, you know, Gary, what do you think?
It's the first time I met him.
I said, what do you think is going to happen with this this election?
He said, no, God spoke to me.
I said, really?
And he said, no, it's not going to happen.
You know, Trump's not going to prevail.
The U.S.
is not ready yet.
We have to suffer more.
So I think we've been, in a way,
we're being tested.
We're being driven to the bottom.
And the only way, the only thing we can do is go up, is move toward God.
It can't get much worse than this.
This is, I mean, we're hating Jews.
the kids.
We're hating everybody.
I know, I know.
Unfortunately, I think it could get worse.
I just hope that we wake up before that does.
One last question for you, Bob.
How did, I mean, you're a CEO of a giant corporation.
How did you survive
this massive attack?
Yeah, you know, well, people were afraid, including the shareholders of the company with family.
But, you know, it says 365 times in the Bible, be not afraid.
And
they wanted me to apologize.
You know, I was on with Laura Ingram and said, Are you going to apologize?
I said that, hell no.
You apologize, then you get fired.
But I didn't care.
You know,
when God tells you what to do, you do it.
You cannot hesitate.
And I think the Holy Spirit, you know,
we had the boycott, we had the attacks, but the Holy Spirit, all of a sudden we had a boycott,
I'm sorry, we had a
boycott, no.
A boycott.
Yeah.
When has that ever happened?
Where people went out and started buying our product.
That's definitely an intervention of the Holy Spirit.
And to give me a platform, I tell you, the urn media from that, which I wasn't looking for, you know, any
news.
But
it was the Holy Spirit's intervention.
It's the Holy Spirit's intervention with Donald Trump that is going to, because if he had prevailed,
the next four years would have been different than they are now.
Oh, yeah.
He's going to prevail now because he's ready for it and he is now in a position more than he would have been four years ago to bring this country closer to God.
Yeah, and
I think the
assassination attempts, I mean, you know him, I know him, he has changed, and you're right.
It is really
it's he's been put into the refiner's fire, and he is ready this time.
And the Hispanics are behind.
And why?
Because we're being exploited.
The economy is a disaster.
We're the biggest group being exploited with trafficking.
So enough is enough.
We say vast daya, which means enough is enough.
And almost 50% of Latinos, which should, and it's growing, are going to be for Donald J.
Trump, and it's going to push him over the finish line.
Robert, so good to see you and talk to you again.
Many blessings.
The name of the book is Blessed, Donald J.
Trump and the Spiritual War.
Bob Unanwe, he is the president and CEO of Goya Foods.
He's walked the walk and lived the trials.
And the book is all about survival.
Blessed, Donald J.
Trump and the Spiritual War.
Bob, thank you so much.
Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
Someday, when you ask me what I did to stem the tide, my kids asked me, I will, I hope I will be able to say I slowed the spread of the leftist and globalist values that either destroyed or nearly destroyed our country.
That chapter hasn't been written yet, but I was proactive.
Are you?
Are you walking the walk?
Are you doing everything you can?
I mean the easy stuff.
Patriot Mobile is one of the easy stuff.
I said to you earlier today,
in fact, I have to go over this with Stu.
The donations that are coming into Texas to turn this state absolutely dark red,
coming in from all of the Soros family, all of the Soros, you know, 501c3s, the Prisker family and the Bloombergs.
They're trying to change Texas and one
county deep, deep blue.
I'm sorry, I keep messing those two up.
It's because red, you think of communism.
That's the problem.
I mean, I always associated us with blue.
It should have been, like, when they first set it up that way, it really should have been.
Because communism.
Anyway, so Patriot Mobile Action, which is not
associated with Patriot Mobile, I mean, Patriot Mobile takes a lot of their money and gives it to Patriot Mobile Action.
But
they're worried about local issues and everything else.
These guys, they get their funding.
They're spending about $350,000, which compared to Soros is nothing just in this one county in Texas to make sure that it remains red and not blue.
And it's close.

he's like I didn't know what to expect but I didn't expect this yeah I mean it's really remarkable yeah it's it's it's impressive and there's a lot to it it's not even just art right you have the actual artifacts artifacts that inspired these artists there's third there's well there's 29 great artists and then me right uh and uh uh and these guys have done um
we asked them for this art show, could you tell the story of America any way that you feel?
Go into our museum, grab some artifacts, and tell us what moves you, and then paint that story.
And so it's from George Washington to Stephen F.
Austin to the Statue of Liberty to the breaking of the chains with the Emancipation Proclamation.
I mean, it's everything, and it's just spectacular.
The idea is, I'm going to let you in, and hopefully the rich people who are coming don't really know how much.
I'm I'm going to just do everything we can to get them to buy anybody of the any of these paintings, which are very, very valuable.
Because
the goal is, is to show artists that they can make money telling American stories
and
bolstering our country.
And not just with one painting that goes to a rich person's house, but hopefully some of these guys will allow me to
take some of the paintings that you feel moved at by when you're going through
and
try to get them out into everybody's houses.
And that's where we make the real difference.
I mean, there's this beautiful painting of a black man with broken chains wrapped in the American flag standing in front of the Lincoln Memorial with a proclamation behind him.
Imagine if that was in 20% of African-American families or our families, how you would feel differently about slavery, Lincoln, and understand what really happened.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
I want to introduce you to Steve Baker.
He's an investigative journalist, Blaze Media correspondent.
He's the guy.
Yeah, he's the guy that might go to jail.
In fact, I think if the election goes the wrong way, he's going to go to jail.
He was
parading
in the Capitol building, which he really wasn't.
He was standing with his back up against the wall recording and doing the job of a journalist.
What evidence do you have of that?
I have the film of it
the whole time he was there.
We have
the whole time he was there.
And it doesn't show him doing any of that stuff.
No, it doesn't.
That's pretty good evidence.
But anyway, Steve is with us now.
Hi, Steve.
How are you?
And good morning to you, too.
Thank you.
Yeah.
All right.
So I want to ask you about a couple of things.
First of all, give us an update
because I understand we just broke a
breaking news on the Blaze about the three hours and what was it, 19 minutes of the National Guard not coming to the Capitol.
Right.
Explain the story quickly and then give us the update.
I'll give this as concisely as I can.
We have been really fortunate to come into contact with some very high-ranking officials, not only within, you know, Congress and the government, but also the Pentagon.
And one of the most recent relationships that I've been able to develop and get really close to is former Assistant Secretary of the Army Stacey Wardensky.
And he was referred to me by a congressional aide and said, I think this guy might talk to you.
And this is a guy that was not only 30 years in the Army, teaches at West Point, chief economist of the Pentagon, but managed an $80 billion Army budget over manpower as the Assistant Secretary of the Army.
Wow.
We're not talking about an unqualified,
unexperienced.
Not a DEI higher.
Let's just say that.
And so I've had dozens of calls with him, and then actually have been able to meet with him in D.C.
when we both happened to be there at the same time.
And as a result of that, he decided to go on the record with us and reveal to the Blaze that he was on the teleconference call.
In fact, they used his system that day when the Army or the Pentagon generals, the guys that answered directly to Mark Milley, who was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time, these were the four-star and three-star generals were on the teleconference call with the National Guard commanders at the same time discussing
the deployment of the Guard after Capitol Police Chief Son was desperately trying to get them to come down and assist him at the copy.
They're only blocks away.
And they were ready.
They were completely ready.
And this is what the guard commanders were trying to convey.
But the Pentagon pukes, the guys who answered directly to Millie, were saying,
we're not so sure about the optics of this.
So we originally thought that the phrase, we don't like the optics, came from Nancy Pelosi.
And three and a half years ago, the second story I ever wrote about January 6th, was actually entitled, Who Was Up the Chain on January 6th.
And that's where I mentioned the optics quote and applied that because it came from her
sergeant-at-arms of the house, Paul Irving, passed along to her.
So we just assumed that it was Pelosi.
No.
It was passed along from these generals at the source, at the Pentagon, on this teleconference call, which Stacy, Assistant Secretary Stacey Wordinsky, was on that call, and he laid it all out to us.
And this is the first time ever in the history of the National Guard that there has been a problem
in Washington.
Yeah.
And they have not gone in to quell it.
That's exactly it.
And there's so much detail.
And of course, we've got the article up on the blaze right now.
But then just an hour ago,
Representative Lautermilk, Barry Lautermilk, who is the chairman of the Oversight Subcommittee,
he dropped a bomb just an hour ago while we're getting ready and preparing for this interview right here, and he drops a list of transcripts related to the National Guard deployment.
And we've heard, you know, that Trump said that he wanted the guard there, and we've heard Cash Patel say that and corroborate that.
And there's been this back and forth argument.
It's in writing now.
Oh, my God.
I want to read one quote, just one, from General Mark Milley.
former chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, January 3rd, 21.
The president just says, hey, look at this.
There's going to be a large amount of protesters here on the 6th.
Make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or soldiers to make sure it's a safe event.
Oh, my God.
Trump says, hey, I don't care if you use Guard or soldiers, active duty soldiers.
Do whatever you have to do.
Just make sure it's safe.
Boom.
Done.
Unbelievable.
And that's not going to be reported.
His campaign has to get on
right away.
Yeah.
All right.
Let me switch gears and talk to you about.
Gates came out and said, I don't know if this is verified anywhere, but Gates came out and said that there are now five assassination teams going after the president.
He said three of them he believes are foreign and two of them are domestic.
What do we know about
have we made progress on either of these investigations
that's his biggest fear yeah is that this is going to move beyond the lone gunman or the disaffected young man or the insane guy from north carolina whatever the case may be that it's going to move to a venezuelan gang or it's going to move to an ironian um uh
cell being
you're seeing how the the secret service move you see their weaknesses you see it all why wouldn't you take that shot if you're a ranch and that's why we've been calling on since the first first assassination attempt back in July 13th that the president needs to augment, if not replace, his security while he still legally can before the election and bring in his own private security.
Because obviously the United States Secret Service are not doing their job.
100% agree.
100% agree.
So what is the latest on the
shooter at the golf course?
Do we have anything?
Yeah, we just released a story this morning.
I did.
And you're not going to believe this.
So we know about the police standoff that he had with Greensboro Police and Guilford County, North Carolina Sheriff's Department back in 2002.
Right.
Right.
Charged with a weapon of mass destruction and actually convicted of that.
Did he ever go to jail, prison?
Glenn,
you're not going to believe what I'm about to tell you.
Oh, yes, I will.
Before that incident, five months before he was arrested
for being found with multiple explosive devices,
was on his own recognizance release
at that time on probation, at the time he did the three-hour standoff with local police with the gun, with the alleged automatic arrival.
Why did he not go to prison?
He didn't just not go to prison while he's now after going through the legal process and being convicted and then being released and being on five years probation, somehow he was granted travel to Costa Rica.
Now, I don't know if you've ever been to Costa Rica or not, but there's only three reasons for going to Costa Rica and two of them are not good.
What are the two reasons that are not good?
I've not been to Costa Rica and I don't.
Sex trade and money laundering operations.
Okay.
The third one, though, is what?
It's pretty.
Yeah, it's great.
Great beaches, great
jungle resorts.
Okay.
okay well and if i ever am costa rica that's why i'm going and your recommendation um so um
but that that doesn't make sense that's like jeffrey epstein kind of stuff that
everybody knows but for some reason they let him go yep and is this just in confidence was this reimagining the police and justice or no he's white what what what happened all right he is a career criminal he has charges going all the way back to when he was in high school.
He is a guy who's had over 100 criminal charges leveled against him.
He has over, I think he has 74 arrests.
That's why he was so calm on his arrest last Sunday.
He had that smirk on his face and he was so calm.
And this is just another day at the office for him in terms of being arrested by cops.
He's had multiple felony convictions.
He's never spent a day in prison as a result of that.
Wow.
Okay.
Well, we've interviewed.
I interviewed the former conservative sheriff out of North Carolina, out of Guilford County, and he told me that the county there, Guilford County, is traditionally extremely liberal and that they would rather release people and plee them down rather than going through the process of, you know, they are government workers, so they would have to actually go to work if they could do a trial.
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
If you have a machine gun, if you have a fully automatic weapon, that's ATF.
That's a federal crime.
And that's exactly what the sheriff said.
That crime in particular should should have been referred to the federal authorities, and it should have been adjudicated there.
But it was not.
It was pled down locally to a concealed carry violation.
A concealed carry, he's got a fully automatic weapon, and he's a criminal.
He shouldn't have had it in the first.
He shouldn't have a gun.
So we are told.
That's correct.
Now,
the only other thing, if we pull back from the ledge and we try, you know, if I try to pull a stew right here,
and that's this, is that if he is insane, we have another problem.
This is indicative of why there's so many homeless people on the streets, because we have no place to put insane people anymore.
And rather than putting this before a judge and a judge going, the dude's crazy, we have nowhere to put these people.
Is he crazy?
Some say that he is.
And when we have testimony now,
we have this nurse.
coincidentally from West Palm Beach that was over in Ukraine with Ryan Routh, who was saying that he was a nut when he was over there, that he was a constant problem.
So she's the one that reported him when she got back here, right?
Right.
Now, when she gave that report,
I sent that report, that Wall Street Journal article over to all of our sources in the intelligence community, all of our sources, special ops community, all of our sources,
all of our former FBI guys.
To a man, everyone responded: BS, she's a CHS.
This was
a confidential human source, and that this is just a disinformation article.
This is not me saying this.
This is the response I got from every one of them, including guys you know like Steve Friend, whom you've had and interviewed.
Okay,
just keep on these stories, Steve.
I really appreciate it, and
keep us updated.
We'll do it.
God bless.

You can probably, you know, you probably love your dog more than certain family members.
I mean, I know I do.
And I'm never going to identify him.
And if I'm talking to that family member, I'm going to say, it's not you.
I'll tell you that right now.
I like to keep him just a little on edge.
Anyway,
you probably love your dog as much as I do, and you want to keep him healthy.
And I always thought I was.
We did everything we knew.
And he would eat dry kibble food.
Well, then we found out that, you know,
they sterilized that food.
You would never feed your child sterilized food that could sit on a shelf for two years every single day for every meal of their life.
They would not, I was surprised my dog had teeth after I realized what we were doing.
You need green stuff on top of it, and that's where Rough Greens comes in.
Rough greens.

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 going to tell you the truth.
How do I present this with a class?
I think we're past that, Charlie.
We're past that, yeah.
Somebody call action.
AKA Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.
Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
Let's take a quick look at the pulse cast today, something we introduced yesterday.
This is not our prediction of what is going on with the race.
This is Stu taking everything from the betting markets to the polls and kind of boiling them down to a number and telling us which direction things are going.
Yeah, actually a slight uptick for Donald Trump yesterday from 44.3% chance to win to 44.77%.
Why?
What happened?
You know, it's interesting.
Looking at it, almost all of the different things that we look at ticked up slightly for Trump yesterday.
That may be a response to the
assassination.
It could be the
assassination attempt fallout.
You know, there was some pretty pretty good polling.
It's interesting.
The polling yesterday that came out was largely favorable for Trump on a national stage, but the polling in swing states was pretty good for Harris.
So, you know, again, these are a million different things that go into this.
You watch it day by day.
You're not going to see
the trends if you're looking.
You know, it's like weight loss, right?
Like, you know, you gain a little bit, you lose a little bit.
Yeah, give it a week and see what it does.
But, you know, we are coming off of a pretty good run for Harris in the polls and an increase in this metric that measures all the other.
Yeah, because you thought yesterday
you said that you thought the next few days might be
a little dark.
I still kind of suspect it might get a little worse before it gets considerably better.
But today, a little bit of good news
of the slightest amount for Donald Trump.
Okay, good.
All right.
What haven't we covered today that we've
needed to?
My gosh, there is so much news.
If you don't get the daily newsletter with all of the news, I mean, you are really missing out.
I mean, you'll get everything you need.
We didn't even get into the 643 sex scandals that have broken in the last 24 hours.
And Robinson.
Yeah, the Robinson.
I love that guy.
What happened?
What?
I mean, he's denying it.
But if you don't know, there were comments made on a porn message board, which
if there is a less productive activity in the world, I don't know if commenting commenting on a porn message board.
I don't know if there's anything lower than that.
But he denies that he did it, of course.
This is back between 2008 and 2012.
But wasn't he like a truck driver or something at the time?
He's not a politician.
Yeah, it was well before he was a politician.
So that one has come out.
You know, there's a bunch of Republicans kind of wanting him to drop out of the race.
He's saying he will not drop out of the race.
Now, I will say he's also considerably behind in this race anyway.
I'm kidding.
Yeah, it's not really, it's not been particularly close for a while.
I don't have a speaker.
I want to say he's down eight or nine points.
I tell you, I listened to him speak recently.
I just thought he was fantastic.
I mean, he's a great speaker.
I mean, his entire career was launched basically by, was it
about guns, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Or was it
school board?
I thought it was a Second Amendment defense.
Yeah, it might have been.
But he was standing up in front of city council or something.
It was unbelievable.
Unbelievable.
So that's one of them.
There's an RFK Jr.
thing.
There is a Matt Gates thing out there today.
There's another one for the head of COVID response in New York City.
Yeah.
That's the only one that is coming from the left, or coming after the left.
The rest of them, you know,
this is what they do.
Pray for sanity, America.
