Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

We're glad you're here.

There's a lot to cover today.

We have a lot of guests coming in to talk about their views on what happened with Kamala Harris last night and what Donald Trump is now saying

about abortion and IVF.

We'll get into all of that in 60 seconds.

First, if you have trouble getting to sleep at night, you probably spend a lot of time looking up at the ceiling thinking, really, is it too much to ask just to close my eyes and drift off like every other normal person out there?

Is it really, really?

I know the feeling because I've done that

and my wife does that a lot,

difficulty sleeping.

We both take Z Factor.

We don't like taking

any kind of drugs or anything.

It'll knock you out, but boy, you bet.

You know, when a prescription says take this while in bed,

you know,

it's going to do nasty things to you if you're not in bed.

And then you wake up feeling groggy.

Z Flat Factor doesn't have any of those things.

It just is a natural way to help you get to sleep faster, sleep better, and stay asleep longer.

Z Factor.

You can get it from the makers of Relief Factor at relief factor.com.

So go to relief factor.com or call 800, the number for relief.

So,

Stu.

Yes.

Last night,

Kamala Harris was on with Dana Bash,

and

it was interesting

because I watched it trying to think of two things.

One,

a family member of mine who

doesn't agree with me on what's going on in the country at all, doesn't see it, but doesn't really watch the news, read the news, listen to the news, you know, just is like in their happy little world.

And

so I watched it as that family member, And then I watched it as somebody who is really up on things.

Okay.

I think if you were really up on things, this

interview last night was so agonizing

because it was, it was,

I've never heard anything like it.

I really haven't.

Let me play a couple of cuts here.

Here's Kamala, cut three on why she hasn't fixed the economy while she's in office.

My proposal includes what would be a tax credit of $25,000 for first-time homebuyers so they can just have

enough to put a down payment on a home, which is part of the American dream and their aspiration, but do it in a way that allows them to actually get on the path to achieving that goal and that dream.

So you have been vice president for three and a half years.

Oh.

The steps that you're talking about now,

why haven't you done them already?

Yeah.

Well, first of all, we had to recover as as an economy, and we have done that.

I'm very proud of the work that we have done that has brought inflation down to less than 3%.

The work that we have done to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month for seniors.

Donald Trump said he was going to do a number of things, including allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices, never happened.

We did it.

So now, as I travel

in the state of Georgia and around our country, the number of seniors that have benefited, I've seen

Nevada recently.

Notice what she's done.

She has completely sidestepped.

she's a good learner she completely sidestepped why didn't you do anything well because well donald trump i mean we had to fix everything the economy was in shambles and you know let me tell you about prescription drugs he says that he negotiated but we did it he didn't do anything uh and him him him him him and now i can go out and i can see people who have insulin you know uh and we don't have any problems wait what does that have to do with the economy again

Okay, so she was slippery on absolutely everything.

Oh, let's go.

I got to hit one more thing on that before we go.

Yeah, Glenn.

Yeah, yeah.

You took actions to get the inflation rate down to 3%

from what?

From what?

It wasn't 3% when Donald Trump was in office.

It only is down to 3% from your terrible regime.

When you had it at 9%,

sure, it's down from whatever it was, 7% or 9% then, but 3% is almost double what it was when you took over.

It's down to double?

That's your argument?

And

by the way, the prices never came down.

So you're just taking the high prices from the 9%

and you're adding 3.5%

every year on top of those high prices.

So that's why that doesn't work with people.

Well, the inflation is down.

No, it's not.

No, it's not.

I still can't afford food.

That's why.

The next thing is

about fracking.

Listen to this one.

Oh, God.

No, and I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020, that I would not ban fracking.

As vice president, I did not ban fracking.

As president, I will not ban fracking.

In 2019, I believe, in a town hall, you said you were asked, would you commit to implementing a a federal ban on fracking on your first day in office?

And you said, there's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.

So yes.

So it changed in that campaign.

In 2020, I made very clear where I stand.

We are in 2024, and I've not changed that position, nor will I going forward.

I kept my word, and I will keep my word.

What made you change that position at the time?

Yeah.

Well,

let's be clear.

My values have not changed.

Let's be clear.

Oh, your values have not changed.

I believe it is very important that we take seriously what we must do to

guard against what is a clear

crisis in terms of the climate.

And to do that, we can do what we have accomplished thus far, the Inflation Reduction Act, what we have done to invest, by my calculation, over

probably a trillion dollars over the next 10 years, investing in a clean energy economy, what we've already done, creating over 300,000 new clean energy jobs.

That tells me, from my experience as vice president, we can do it without banning fracking.

In fact, Dana, Dana, excuse me,

I cast the tie-breaking vote.

Yeah, you did.

That actually increased leases for fracking.

A lot of tie-breaking votes that she didn't answer for.

Yeah, a lot of them.

That's an all-sing clip.

Infuriating in 150 different ways.

You cannot be part of the Green New Deal and not ban fracking.

It's just impossible.

And I'd love to know.

So what is she saying?

Yeah.

Go ahead.

Sorry.

I'd love to know exactly because she says

she did it on the debate stage in 2020.

And you might remember, of course, she didn't even make it to 2020 in her campaign.

She failed before Iowa.

So she's talking about the vice presidential debate.

Vice President.

Right.

Where she's saying that.

But like, she says she will not change that going forward.

Well, what

could she have promised that in 2019, too?

How the hell do we know what she's going to change going forward?

She's changed almost everything going forward.

So her answer to everything last night on the changes

was very, very clear.

Yes, but my values haven't changed.

Okay.

So what are her values?

We know what her values are.

The earth is number one priority.

Okay.

Do whatever we have to do.

She was for the Green New Deal.

She even boasted about the Green New Deal becoming the Inflation Reduction Act

and all the things things they got through of the Inflation Reduction Act.

So

they admitted to lying to you about the Inflation Reduction Act.

It had nothing to do with inflation.

It had everything to do with the Green New Deal.

So

she lying to you there

and her values, her values.

My values haven't changed.

Well, I've seen your values.

I don't like your values.

You cannot change,

you cannot remain with the same values and change your positions 180 degrees.

Why?

Unless one of your values is winning an election, doing whatever you have to do to win an election.

It's her only value.

It's her only value, Glenn.

Yes.

And if she's

some values over and over again.

She has some values.

Glenn, I will say, I give a little credit to Dana Bash, who actually did ask my question

right after this moment.

Did you laugh at that?

Because she said, I did.

Was there some policy or scientific data that you saw that said, oh, okay, I get it now.

We shouldn't ban fracking.

And she basically just didn't answer it.

You know, typical nonsense.

But it was good.

It was a good idea.

I will say, Dana Bash, first third of that interview, not bad.

And then

just a giant plane crash after that.

All right.

So I don't know if I've told this story before.

Probably have.

But when I was at Fox, Bill O'Reilly called me into his office and he said,

what are you doing, man?

They're going to kill you.

They're going to kill you.

And he was talking about the press and the left.

And I said, I don't care.

And he said, no, you need to care.

You need to care.

He said, or it will be very short-lived.

And I said, I'm only planning on being here for two years, Bill.

He's like, what is wrong with you?

And I'm like, well, that's, I don't want to do this, but

I'll listen.

So he said,

look,

I have the audience and I have the corporations kind of a little afraid of me when I put their picture up on the

no spin zone.

And he said, so here's what we're going to do.

When you say something controversial and everybody's at your throat, he said, you're going to come on to my show.

And I'm going to ask you a tough question.

And I might even follow it up with another tough question.

But you need to understand this is a friendly room.

And from here on out, you can say asked and answered.

What this whole thing was yesterday was

Dana asking tough questions,

but knowing she's walking into a friendly room.

When you are a candidate or somebody who is going to be in the hot seat, you know, this is why Kamala won't do anything on Fox.

You know,

if you're walking into a friendly room, they'll push you, but not continue to push you.

Okay.

Dana would have never let that question go with J.D.

Vance or Donald Trump.

That would have been the entire, what, 18 minutes.

Would have been the whole thing.

But it wasn't.

It was just two pushes, and then I'm off it.

And then we're going to do a happy, you know, campaign commercial for you in the last, you know, five minutes.

So what this was,

because you'll notice that Kamala also said that she doesn't want to deal in the past.

We're about turning the page and

just looking towards the future.

We're not going to dwell on the past.

So, when somebody asks her about her flip-flop,

I've already answered that question.

My values haven't changed.

Let's move on.

We got to focus on the future.

They only have to buy a few weeks.

That's it.

Was it next week or the week after?

Pennsylvania starts to vote.

If she isn't exposed soon,

it'll be too late for places like Pennsylvania.

But I'm just, again, not convinced that

people believe her about fracking and people believe her about the economy.

I mean, they might like her,

but again,

if you are aware of politics and you know these aren't good people.

They're not good people.

And you could say that about Donald Trump and, you know, J.D.

Vance, too.

Politicians are not good people.

We should never trust them.

And you know anything about her policies, you know how radical she really is.

And even more so, you know, Tim, the greatest father in the world who just drags his kid on stage and says, knock it off.

That was beautiful.

He's even more radical.

And I don't even know if that's possible, but that's what it appears to be.

But if you don't know that and you're low information voter and you are not paying attention, but you want to just see who she is, last night was a home run for you.

Last night was a home run.

And it gives her cover now to not do another interview, at least for a long while.

Well, I did one.

I'll try to schedule one by the end of September or, you know, sometime in October.

when it's too late.

It's fascinating to watch politics.

I just, I wish I was watching it in somebody else's country and not mine.

Back in just a minute.

Burn a launcher is our sponsor.

Unless you live out in the sticks, it's not the best idea to practice training with your guns out in the backyard.

Kind of thing that, you know, has a tendency to end up with you having a conversation with the cops and your neighbors screaming at you.

That's not usually so fun.

But you know what you can use to practice there is a Bern a Launcher, right?

And a Bern a Launcher, it feels just like a gun in your hand.

It feels exactly, you know,

like,

you know, any pistol that you are pulling out and you're able to practice and it's completely silent.

It's less lethal, and that's the way to go.

Burna is the best alternative to deadly force.

When you need deadly force, man, I'm telling you,

get a gun.

But if you are in a situation where you can't shoot or you think,

I don't know if I've got this right, you can shoot a Burna launcher and it will hit tear gas.

And that'll keep that person on the ground for about 40 minutes.

It's got a 60-foot range.

It's perfect for non-legal high noon or non-lethal high noon.

You can get the launcher.

They also have the rifles now in stock.

All right, welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

I've got to hit Tim Walls on

one of the worst answers.

I mean, they were bad answers all the way along if you wanted actual facts.

But listen to this.

This is

when he was asked about,

you know, I carried a gun in war.

Listen to this.

Well, first of all, I'm incredibly proud.

I've done 24 years of wearing the uniform of this country.

Equally proud of my service in the public school classroom, whether it's Congress or the governor.

My record speaks for itself, but I think people are coming to get to know me.

I speak like they do.

I speak candidly.

I wear my emotions on my sleeves.

And

I speak especially passionately about

our children being shot in schools and around guns.

So I think people know me.

They know who I am.

They know

where my heart is.

And again,

my record has been out there for over 40 years, to speak for itself.

And

the idea that you said that you were in war.

Did you misspeak as the campaign has said?

Yeah, I said we were talking about, in this case, this was after a school shooting, the ideas of carrying these weapons of war.

And my wife, the English teacher, told me my grammar is not always correct.

But again, if it's not this, it's an attack on my children for showing love.

Stop.

Sly.

So his grammar isn't that good.

I believe he taught English to the Chinese in China.

So a grammar thing probably shouldn't be that big of a problem for you, Tim.

I'm just

pointing that out.

Let's point that out.

It was good enough to teach the Chinese in China,

probably good enough to say,

I don't know how you make this grammatical error.

Just like the gun I carried in war.

That doesn't seem like a grammar problem.

That seems like a lying problem.

Yeah,

it's interesting because both you and I,

people might point out the fact that we sort of speak English, but who knows?

It's not really always all that close to correct.

But yet,

neither of us have ever had a moment where we've said we may have been in war at some point, shooting the enemy.

That's never slipped out of our mouth.

With all the grammar, the grammatical mistakes we have made over 20 plus years of doing this show together, neither of us have ever claimed to be Rambo.

That's just never occurred.

I don't wonder why.

Well, I mean, I don't know about you, but I'm the Jack the Ripper of the English language.

I kill it in an alleyway almost every hour.

Okay.

But like Stu said, I've never said,

you know, like when I was on the moon.

Or when I was in war.

Now, I've talked about World War II a lot, you know, but I've never said, you know, when I killed Hitler.

No, no, never said that.

No, never said that.

Not once.

It's kind of hard to butcher the language that much to where that comes mangled out of your mouth.

Might be a mental problem.

Might be.

Might be a mental problem.

Speaking of mental problems, I don't know if we have time to play the Maggie Hibberman clip.

Do you have that?

The Maggie Hibberman clip is, I saw this as I was trying to find CNN.

I had to, you know, subscribe to CNN.com.

And don't worry, I didn't pay for anything.

I unsubscribed right after.

But

don't you want your three, seven days?

Nope.

Nope.

I don't.

Nuh-uh.

Don't need it.

But anyway,

the Maggie Haberman was on with

Anderson Cooper

and they were talking about

this

problem

that Donald Trump was in

Arlington Cemetery.

And how dare him be in Arlington Cemetery.

And the people who he showed their tombstones, he showed their tombstones.

They should sue him for that because he had no right to open up the pain of those people again.

Wait until you hear what Maggie Haberman said.

Also, we have Allie on with us, Ali Beth Stuckey, to talk about Trump's new abortion stance.

Iris wrote in about her dog's experience with rough greens.

She says, the day the trial pack came, and I put my hand and offered some of it to Shiloh, her dog, he licked it clean off my hand.

Ever since then, he gets very anxious about mealtime.

When I'm mixing the rough greens in his kibble, he stands up and begs for his bowl.

Funny thing is, he he was always really a picky eater before.

He also has more energy now.

He wants to play more often.

This stuff is really great.

It is.

Rough greens is not a dog food.

It's a supplement that you put on your dog's food.

You sprinkle it on there.

They love it.

And it gives them all the vitamins, minerals, probiotics, everything else that your dog needs.

If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in Rough Greens.

They have a special right now going on at Rough Greens, R-U-F-F-Greens.com slash Beck.

You go go there and they're going to give you your first trial bag for free just to make sure your dog loves it.

You just pay for shipping.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

Well, there's a couple of things that Donald Trump did yesterday to make news, and I think it's worth taking time to address.

Cut six, here's Donald Trump on a six-week Florida ban.

It has to be more time.

And so that's, and I've told them that I want more weeks.

So you'll vote in favor of the amendment?

I'm voting that I am going to be voting that we need more than six weeks.

Look, just so you understand, everybody wanted Roe v.

Wade terminated for years, 52 years.

I got it done.

They wanted it to go back to the states.

Exceptions are very important for me, for Ronald Reagan, for others that have navigated this very, very interesting and difficult path.

Okay, so why is he doing that?

Everybody thought he was going to be the greatest pro-life president.

I never did.

I was shocked that that Roe versus Wade actually was overturned.

And let's be honest about it.

He didn't do that.

He appointed the justices that did that.

But I don't think that that was his main thing when he was picking justices on who's going to be pro-life.

And then they got the right,

you know,

verdict, right case came in, and they gave the right verdict.

But he has always been somebody who is wanting exceptions.

I don't agree with him,

but that's what the vote is all about.

Now, I just want to say, I believe if this is your critical issue,

I would ask that you

go out and campaign and vote in your state on the abortion bills.

You're voting for President of the United States.

This is a state issue.

He's not going to pass anything

that is a federal law.

I just don't see that happening.

Maybe he will.

But I will tell you this.

If you want to stand for life, if you have Kamala Harris, I believe you will go to jail.

I believe if you speak out online, it is going to become very draconian.

She is the most

shout-your-abortion

presidential candidate we have ever, ever had.

Allie Bastucci is with us now to comment on this.

Allie.

Hi, Gladys.

Allie, are you there?

Hi.

Yes.

I know we caught you on vacation.

I'm so sorry.

I know you're out fishing, which I love.

But thanks for hopping on.

Yes, yes.

Thank you so much.

And I agree with everything that you said, every bit of it, both Kamala Harris and Trump's statement.

You know, this is politically miscalculated for Trump because the amendment is probably thankfully going to fail in Florida.

And the Trump campaign is coming out now and saying, you know, he didn't say exactly how he was going to vote.

That's the response that I'm getting on X, but he did.

I mean, maybe he didn't mean it.

Maybe he'll vote another way.

But he did say that he is voting to extend the weeks, which would be voting yes on Amendment 4, which does allow abortion through all nine months of pregnancy for virtually any reason in Florida.

So it's politically miscalculated as well as immoral.

So how do you

because I hear people, I just don't think I can vote for Trump now.

And I'm like, are you out of your mind?

Right.

Do you agree with that?

No, I don't agree with that.

Now, I have friends, friends that I really don't.

Wait, wait, wait.

You don't agree with me or wait, wait.

You don't agree with what I just said or the people?

Go ahead.

I don't agree with not voting for Donald Trump.

Okay.

I still support Donald Trump for a variety of reasons.

One of them, for the reason that you said, that, yes, Donald Trump is not nearly as pro-life as I want him to be, and I want to use whatever political capital we pro-lifers have to push him in the direction of life.

The difference between him and Kamala Harris is that we actually have the opportunity to do that if Donald Trump is president, not only because of him, but also because of the people that I believe that he surrounds himself with, the judges and the justices that he may appoint.

With Kamala Harris, we not only have no in, we have no influence whatsoever, but as we've seen while she was AG of California, while she was even district attorney of San Francisco, while she was the furthest left senator when she was in the Senate, is that she is openly hostile and vindictive towards pro-lifers.

Anyone can ask David DeLeid him what that has been like.

And so we're looking at the threatening of the 501c3 status for every pro-life organization.

We are looking at the chilling of pro-life speech.

We are looking at the continuation of and the doubling down of weaponizing the DOJ against pro-life grandmothers who are simply sharing the gospel in front of murder mills.

So that's Kamala Harris.

Do I wish that Donald Trump were more pro-life and was doing more and was making better decisions?

I wish that he would stop talking about it if he's not going to come out strong on the side of life.

I wish he would not get into the week's conversation and just say, I'm going to make America the best place on earth for moms and babies.

End of story.

He can pivot.

I mean, that's kind of PR 101.

He should just be doing that.

And so I have much more hope that the Donald Trump presidency will be much friendlier to the pro-life cause, to say the least, than Kamala Harris.

Yeah,

I agree with you.

Last question.

He came out for IVF.

I think you're against IVF.

Well, IVF results in the destruction of millions of embryos every year.

I am absolutely for people becoming parents.

I do want more babies.

I think that's great.

But we have to acknowledge that America is the wild west of reproductive technology.

There are virtually no restrictions or regulations around the creation of embryos.

Those are little image bearers of God.

Life starts at fertilization.

They've got their own DNA.

And I do not want to subsidize IVF.

I understand that a lot of the country is not where I am.

I don't expect Donald Trump to personally be where I am on IVF.

But when you start saying that you are going to take the tax dollars of millions of Christians, millions of Catholics who are against the destruction of those embryos through IVF and you're going to fund that, that becomes a problem.

Again, I just would like him to stop talking about it.

A deal breaker for you?

Is this a deal breaker for me?

No, it's not a deal breaker for me.

I mean, as you, I'm sure, agree, we've got so many issues economically with foreign policy, domestic policy, immigration.

I still think Donald Trump and the policies that he represents represents order.

And I think Kamala Harris and the policies she represents represents disorder and chaos.

And I can't do that to my children and my children's children.

I've got to try to preserve the good that can be preserved and fought for.

And I think it's much more likely to be preserved and fought for in a Donald Trump presidency.

Allie, I have to first say to you,

I'm so proud of you, and I'm so happy for your success.

You have become

a force to reckon with.

And I just love that because

I know you.

It's you.

You're being you, and it's not some show.

And that's what makes people a success.

You're doing

an event in Dallas September 28th.

And I love this.

Share the arrows.

What exactly is this event?

Yes, so this is an event for Christian women, and we are expecting hopefully about 5,000 Christian women to be there in Dallas, Texas.

It's had a large church there.

We've got several Christian speakers, apologists,

theologians, moms who are talking about how to contend with this crazy, chaotic culture that we live in through biblical truths and through biblical courage.

We've also got another huge speaker, a woman that we have not announced yet, that hopefully will be announced soon.

We've got worship led by Francesca Battistelli.

A woman can come by herself.

She can come with her friends.

She can come with her female family members.

There's going to be lots and lots of like-minded women.

And in this very crazy, turbulent election season, we just need to be able to look around, link arms, and say, you know what?

Whatever arrows the enemy is going to throw towards you, they can send them my way too.

When we have that kind of solidarity and courage, we can make a big difference.

All right, welcome to the Glenbeck program.

So

last night, as I'm getting ready for this Kamala Harris interview, I'm watching CNN against my will.

I was practically a hostage.

And

Maggie Haberman is on with Anderson Cooper.

And they're, of course, talking about the next Trump controversy on how Orange Man bad.

And I'm like,

what is the problem now?

And they're talking about Arlington, that he was there with the flag-laying ceremony in Arlington.

And he dared tape it.

You're not allowed to tape anything and share it.

Okay.

It's very private.

Well, the family had given him permission.

The family asked for him to be there and then gave him permission to film it and post all of it.

Well, Maggie, she says this.

Listen to this.

So Trump painted this as the family members just asked me to take a picture.

It sure seems like his campaign was there to take pictures.

And they put this video, as you say, on his TikTok.

It had implicit criticism of the Biden administration and implicit praise of his own administration.

And then there's a related issue, which is that some of the pictures that were posted and part of the video that he posted showed the back of the gravestone of another service member who was not involved in Abby Gate, who died by suicide.

Green Beret.

A Green Beret.

He died by suicide,

Sergeant Marcasano, and his family is very private.

His death was very jarring to them and to his friends.

And they were not asked about this.

And they then don't have a say in in how this is being used.

And the Trump campaign has expressed no remorse whatsoever about that and

is attacking anybody who raises questions about it and is attacking this Army official.

Calling this employee mentally unstable, which is

her, excuse me.

Right, yeah.

And she declined to press charges.

And again, there's a lot we don't know about the nature of what this altercation entailed, but she declined to press charges.

I don't know what those charges specifically.

Stu

what did she just say

what was her biggest problem?

Well, her big problem was all the attention brought to this poor soldier's family who was very private.

They wanted no attention.

They want no attention at all.

They're very private, and you know, this was obviously a tragic death, a suicide.

They don't want it to be the big topic of discussion, and they're very frustrated at

Donald Trump for bringing it to people.

Right.

So,

as I understand the story, Maggie Haberman saw the name, found the family, called them up.

How do you feel about this?

Well, we're a very private family, and it was, we don't talk about it.

We don't want to be involved in any of this.

So you're a very private family?

Yes.

And it was pretty a grisly suicide.

Yeah, but we don't want to talk about this.

We just don't, we don't want to be, we don't want to be reminded of it.

Please leave us alone.

So what does she do?

She gets on CNN

and she says the name of the guy, that it was a grisly suicide that took everybody by shock, and that they're a private family.

Well, if they're a private family, I don't think Maggie Haberman being on CNN, giving the name and the details, is something they would appreciate.

If they had a problem with just the name on a tombstone off to the side, and nobody knew that name, nobody knew how he died, whatever.

If they had a problem with that, I think they would have a bigger problem with Maggie Haberman saying, oh, grisly suit.

Have I told you the suicide?

Wow.

Let me talk to you about the suicide thing.

And

giving his name out.

My gosh, these people are just, you know, I saw, I've never seen Maggie Haberman, never seen Maggie Haberman before.

You know, I've read her and everything else, but I've never seen her.

And I'm watching it last night and I'm like, look at that woman.

I said to my son, look at that woman.

Just her glasses and her countenance and her face.

She just looks like a really angry liberal who's just,

and I said,

she looks like I imagine Maggie Haberman.

I had no idea until this morning that that was Maggie Haberman.

She looks exactly like I imagined her.

Oh my gosh.

I will say, I will quote a woman in my life who's watched Maggie Haberman before and would note this morning, this is the first time they've ever seen Maggie Haberman with makeup on.

Every time she's on television, I get the same amount of commentary about

why doesn't she wear makeup?

Why don't they make her wear makeup?

Well, she is wearing makeup this morning, so that is that'll be pleasing.

So you got that.

But

sounds like you're talking about a specific listener there.

Stu.

Perhaps.

It's a good thing.

It's a good thing.

We're all making progress this morning.

It's wonderful.

Yes, we are.

All right.

We've got a couple of things that we're going to share with you next hour,

including we're going to talk to our good friend at the Heritage Foundation, Kevin Roberts.

What did he think about

the stances and how she avoided all of the answers?

So let me talk about the Berna launcher.

Here's a phrase that you never want to have to use someday.

If I had only had a Berna launcher.

If you're a gun owner and somebody who carries a gun like me, you've probably been taught carrying firearms comes with lots of responsibilities.

And one of them is that if you're going to shoot at someone, you shoot to kill.

But what happens when it's not a situation where you feel like you should kill that person?

You just want to stop them?

Those situations do exist, and that's why there is an alternative, a burn a launcher.

I have it.

Members of my family have it.

Police are starting to carry it now instead of a taser.

It's better than pepper spray and tasers and everything else.

From a 60, 60 foot

space, you can take somebody down.

You can hit them with a tear gas pellet, which explodes.

You get anywhere near them, and they're down for 40 minutes.

Also, kinetic less than lethal.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

I was talking to somebody yesterday, and they said,

I don't know how to, I don't know how to talk to this individual because they won't listen to what is true and they never watch, you know, people like me or whatever.

And so I've been thinking about it and thinking about it.

Well, I may have the answer.

There is a new website called dangerouslyliberal.com and it has not only all of the stats, charts, and graphs and the history of

Walls and Harris,

but also Harris in office and what she plans on doing on the policy issues.

But it also has all of these stories and it's all footnoted.

So you could just print these stories and send them out and say, this is what's really going on.

It's worth a shot.

It really comes from the Heritage Foundation and Kevin Roberts joins me in 60 seconds.

You're not getting the best cuts at your grocery store.

Most of the meat is from overseas.

I know it has the little flag thing on it, product of USA.

That doesn't mean anything.

That means it was cut into steaks and put into saran wrap here in the United States.

It doesn't mean it was grown here.

Most of it isn't.

Why are you doing this?

Why are they doing this to us?

Hello, Kevin Roberts from Heritage.

Welcome to the program, sir.

How are you?

Glenn, it's great to be with you.

Thanks for having me.

Yeah.

So thank you for the website.

Tell me about,

you know, Tell me about the website.

Tell me why you guys came up with it.

And I'm really interested in hearing why you called it dangerously liberal.

Well, the reason we did this is precisely what you described about having a friend or a family member or a neighbor who just doesn't want to listen to the facts.

And so we were sitting around a few weeks ago and thinking, how is it that we can, as the Heritage Foundation, reinsert policies and ideas and facts back into this election cycle.

And so what we decided was no one's telling the truth about Vice President Kamala Harris's policy record, starting with her and her campaign.

And obviously the recent interview, if you can call it that, that she did, shed very little light on that.

So we decided as the largest conservative public policy organization in the world, it probably was our job to do that.

And so if you go to dangerouslyliberal.com, you can see her policy record as vice president literally on every issue.

As you mentioned at the top, it is something that's footnoted.

You know that we take great pride in the objectivity of our research.

Someone can go there and learn for themselves.

But why did we name it dangerously liberal?

Because also speaking objectively and just philosophically, not only is Vice President Harris the most liberal vice president we have ever had in our history, she's dangerously so.

If you think about what she has done on the economy, on the border, on public safety in cities, on national security and foreign policy, if she were to do that as president of the United States, I think that America would be in danger.

Yeah,

I think so.

My question is more, and I'm a stickler on this.

She's not liberal.

I think she's not even progressive, but that would be a better word.

But she is a,

I mean, she's a socialist.

She is a socialist.

She is a radical, but probably dangerously liberal would be

more apt to get people to not think you're a radical.

So did you watch her last night?

I did.

You know, I was really trying to watch baseball, but my Atlanta Braves lost to the Phillies, unfortunately.

So I switched over to that interview.

And

I was actually really intrigued, and so I watched the whole thing.

I was intrigued by the disaster that it was, both by the interviewer, frankly, and also the vice president.

So why do you say it was a disaster?

I believe it was a disaster for people like us that pay attention, but I'm not sure it is for the average American who just doesn't know her.

They're like, oh, she's nice.

Yeah, you're right about that.

It was a disaster for those of us looking for more policy depth, and it was a disaster for journalism because Dana Bash, who I do think did a little bit better than I was expecting, my expectations were

like zero.

But I was disappointed in that she didn't follow up some of her really good questions with the kinds of questions that you would get or Donald Trump would get or any conservative.

But your point about

it not being a disaster for people who are just casual observers, if they were just tuning in for a few minutes, or maybe they had the TV on and it was on mute, they see someone whose affect is seemingly joyful, who's seemingly positive, who seems nice.

And you and I both know that the state of American society right now is that there are a lot of Americans, perfectly good people, who just aren't tuned in enough to those policy issues to actually care.

And that's why we did this website to kind of come full circle in our motivation.

So I was watching her last night, and I recognize the tactic.

This is

a tough but friendly interview.

So the campaign can then say, asked and answered, we're moving forward.

We're not looking at the past.

And I think that's what you're going to hear from them from here on out is we're not talking about the past.

We're looking to the future.

You know, Donald Trump is in the past.

We're in the future.

And we want to to keep this positive.

And I think that's going to actually be effective for, again, those people who don't pay attention.

But, Kevin, can you see

this economy and the people of America, where it's always the economy stupid,

being brainwashed enough that they would vote for the people that brought them this economy, brought us to the brink of war?

I think that there is a near majority of Americans who, in fact, would vote that way.

You know, that we should not trust any individual poll.

But if you look at the trends across all of the different polling organizations, a few of them probably with pretty good methodology, the trend is really clear, which is that this fantasy land that has been created by the vice president that she's not been part of three and a half years of policy disaster somehow can look towards the future that's actually been effective thus far.

You know, for what it's worth, Glenn, although I'm a policy guy and not a campaign prognosticator, I've sensed that the only way to combat that for Mr.

Trump and Mr.

Vance is to do the precise thing that the vice president is trying to avoid, which is to have a policy conversation, to actually hold her accountable to the policy positions that she has.

And one final point on this, what reveals that, in fact, she wants to avoid that is the flip-flopping she's doing on fracking, on the economy, on national security.

You think about this convoluted answer about Israel and Palestine last night.

It's really, really important that Donald Trump in particular have the message discipline on policy that his running mate has had, I think, remarkably over the last few weeks.

Yeah, I think so too.

I mean, Donald Trump should start every answer and every speech, and it it should be sprinkled throughout.

You know, our main focus is the economy.

This inflation is outrageous and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

But let me talk about this.

If they're asking you another question, start with that.

I think they really have to be very clear

on the economy and talk about the things that people are talking about, which is

my city isn't safe anymore.

My food is too expensive.

You know, the jobs are going elsewhere.

If he would be disciplined enough to talk about those things, and like you said,

almost be

just almost be a little, a little wonky by talking about this is what we're going to do.

Because you're never going to hear that from Kamala.

And when you do, celebrate because what they're saying they're going to do, like price controls, that's insanity.

It is.

And I think, you know, you're, I think you're the best at the high-level framing of how common sense conservatives can talk about their issues.

I think the high-level framing for Mr.

Trump and Mr.

Vance, and for that matter, conservative candidates, ought to be security.

economic security, which has not existed in the last three and a half years.

Security, not just in inner cities, but in suburbs.

You talk about appealing to female voters.

Talk about the lack of security in a place like Aurora, Colorado, which basically is being overrun by gangs, as you know.

And then also, although it's

a sec, and a very dangerous gang.

This is a Venezuelan gang.

This is what they do.

They were sent here to cause turmoil and just take over neighborhoods.

That's what they do in Venezuela, and they're doing it here.

Yes, and for people who've not been to Aurora, Colorado, if this can happen in Aurora, this can happen wherever you are sitting.

It doesn't matter what your subdivision subdivision or neighborhood or suburb is.

And I think that President Trump has done a very good job in some of the interviews that he's done.

It's actually impressive for someone as busy as he is, and he's a very healthy 78, can do these hour-long, two-hour-long interviews.

The more he does that and the more he frames this decision facing Americans as being about restoring security in every respect.

What you and I are talking about regarding these Venezuelan gangs, economic security, national security, I think that is how you offset the vacuousness of the vice president's rhetoric.

Can I ask your opinion on something?

I saw a story today that, you know, California did something else crazy.

They banned any voter ID.

Okay.

So now it's against the law in California to ask for any kind of ID at the voting booth, which is insanity.

And we know why they're doing that, to get illegals to vote.

But your first thought is, well, why?

That's already a blue state.

You only have a certain number of electoral

votes, so what are you doing?

Well, I believe they are going to find these states where they can pile numbers in, that they always win anyway, but they're going to pile them in

because that will affect the popular vote.

So if Donald Trump does win electorally, they'll be able to come back and say, look look at the margin here.

This is not democracy, to which I would reply, yes, you finally get it.

It's not a democracy.

It's a republic.

But

I think they're doing that to

ensure that if he does win, they have a reason to be on the streets.

Would you agree with that?

Man, you took your Bernal Launcher and hit the bullseye.

I mean, that is the center of, you hit the center of the bullseye.

What we try to do at Heritage, as you do every day, is not only fight the policy fights that are right in front of us today and this week, but see around the corners.

And what's happening is that this is their attempt to pile up

as many votes as they can so that they can delegitimize a Trump Electoral College win.

And so just count on it, Glenn.

If Trump wins this election, which by the way, I still think he is in good shape to do, they will try to delegitimize everything he tries to do and the entire conservative movement with this national popular vote effort.

And obviously, if the opposite happens, if Ms.

Harris wins the election, they're going to work on that as well.

It's just going to take a little bit longer to get done.

Yeah, they'll just do it through Congress.

They're not going to make a big deal out of it,

at least at first.

Kevin, thank you so much.

Thanks for everything you guys are doing at Heritage.

I really appreciate it.

God bless.

Well, God bless you, brother.

Take care.

Thank you.

Dangerouslyliberal.com is that website that we were talking about, dangerouslyliberal.com.

All right, let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.

Let's imagine just for a second that,

you know, if you had a person who walked around with you every day, letting you know whether the decisions you were about to make were good ones or not so good ones.

And whenever you needed an answer to a problem, you could just turn to them and say, hey, and they'd know the answer, or at least they'd know where to go to find out.

Wouldn't that be great?

Well, that doesn't exist.

I mean, Google is trying to make that for you, but I wouldn't trust those answers necessarily in the future.

Give chat GPT time, but that's what they're trying to do.

But right now, the one that you really need by your side is a really good real estate company and a really good real estate agent when you're buying or selling a house.

The company I started about 10 years ago is Real Estate Agents I Trust.

Real Estate Agents I Trust.

The Real Estate Agents Network

and the people that we work with are incredibly dedicated professionals.

They're fully committed to helping you realize your home buying or home selling goals.

They're going to put a team of experts together for you and get things done right and right the first time.

Real Estate Agents I Trust, the name says it all.

Go to realestate agentsitrust.com.

Realestateagents I trust.com.

10 seconds, station ID.

Oh, golly.

So I was on X

last night on Spaces.

And

I think that's an incredible platform.

Really?

I think Elon has, yeah, I do.

I think Elon has something in Spaces.

And what we do because last night...

It's all audio, right?

Like it's basically an audio, kind of like a live podcast.

Would you describe it that way?

I would say that it is more like radio, more like what we do, except

the people that are listening, you can go out and invite them to join in on the conversation.

So you have these experts and sometimes from all over the world that will just join.

And

so you have this really

smart, fascinating, intellectual conversation.

with people from all over the world.

There were people from North America and South America America talking about Brazil last night.

And that's because Brazil,

you know, the guy that was going to stop the tyrant, Bolsonaro, he came in and apparently he's now a tyrant.

Who would have guessed that?

Wait a minute.

Hold on just a second.

So the guy who leans commie

becomes a dictator.

And so one of the things he does is he makes sure that he changes and controls the Supreme Court.

And the guy that

is on the Supreme Court now is also a dictator, and he's just

making things up as he's going along.

And so they first, a couple of weeks ago, a few weeks ago, they tried to ban X in Brazil, saying that it was full of disinformation and misinformation.

And they told Elon Musk that he had to start banning people.

They would give him a list and he would start banning people, but he couldn't tell them why they were being banned.

And he's like, no,

no, I'm not doing that.

And so they started getting angry with him and they said they were going to ban X and

spaces and everything else.

Well, Elon Musk said, I don't really care.

Go pound sand.

He is the prime example of, excuse the language here, but FU money.

I was always taught, have some FU money.

So if your boss and everything, they ask you to do things, you could just walk out and go, I don't really care.

Goodbye.

He's the prime example of having that kind of money uh and he said i don't care well then yesterday this judge came out and said we're going after

uh we're going after

starlink

uh

and space x

and he was like hmm

so they're going to be investigating uh

star a starlink they have closed all of the offices by order of the court They've frozen all of his assets in Brazil

and told him to shut off Starlink.

And

because they froze all of his assets, there's nobody to process the money or anything else that people are in.

And he said, again, F you buddy, I don't really care.

Hey, everybody in Brazil that has Starlink, it's free.

Don't worry about paying for it.

It's free until we get things sorted out.

So don't worry about it.

And so then the government said,

we're going to shut off Starlink.

We're going to stop using it.

And we are going to prosecute everybody who is involved with Starlink.

Well, it was supposed to shut off, I think, Brazil time midnight, which was 10 o'clock my time.

I'm in the Mountain West.

And so I'm on, and we're all waiting for them to shut it off.

Somebody calls in from the government who's on Elon's side down in Brazil and said, I just got a press release.

It's coming from their version of the Pentagon, which I think is just like, I don't know, a triangle.

And

it said,

our critical infrastructure runs on Starlink.

Our military is running on Starlink right now.

And until we have a new contract, we can't really

get off Starlink.

So it's not going to happen tonight.

But what was amazing to me is here is Brazil, who

thought they had a Donald Trump that they were afraid of.

So they hired the socialist to make sure they didn't go into dictatorship.

And that's who became the dictator.

Isn't that weird?

I mean, I just gotta say,

who would have seen that coming?

Glad that's not happening here, huh?

And the way they're going after him, They are doing everything they can to stop him.

And the same things are happening here in America.

It's just, it just looks differently.

But once he bought X, the government started investigating and said, we got to look into Elon Musk and SpaceX and Tesla and everything else.

We are in a very dangerous place.

Oh my gosh, that's me.

Let me tell you about Car Shield.

would like just to be able to get in your car and turn the key and it starts, right?

We have

Dennis Wade on.

Dennis Wade.

Dennis Quaid.

Yeah, sorry, Dennis Quaid on my podcast.

We talk about Reagan, and I think it is a really refreshing conversation.

And then we go into, you know,

his politics.

You know, he voted for Jimmy Carter and then realized that mistake and voted for Ronald Reagan and it became his favorite president.

He has an

I think a kind of a sunny attitude towards the future.

And you want to watch this tonight.

Yeah, I'm really, you mentioned watching it instead of listening.

It looks great and it's kind of, you know, Dennis Quaid, of course, is a great actor and knows, you know, he knows how to work a camera for sure.

But it's like, you look at this.

It's just him being authentic and honest.

And it is,

it's important.

It's got me fired up to watch Reagan, too.

This is out to me.

Well, you're going to love it.

Yeah, you're going to love it.

Really?

You're going to love it.

Yeah.

You know, the story of Reagan has never been told by people who like Reagan.

Yeah.

You know, they've done these, they've done these, you know, TV movies on Reagan, but I mean, he is, he is one of the most beloved.

Even Democrats like, I mean, not all of them, but Democrats liked Reagan.

And he changed our world.

And it's a story that needs to be told.

And they tell it really, really well.

You're going to love it, Stu.

Make sure you go.

I'd love to hear your review on Monday.

Stories are so important to us.

And that is why it is so heartening to see what has been done with movies, et cetera, et cetera.

I have talked to

some of the best artists in the country over the last five years or so.

And

many of them will tell me,

well, they won't necessarily say this out loud, we're not taught any of this stuff in, we're not taught storytelling in art school.

And we're encouraged to, you know,

be modern about everything.

And story, when I was over in England and I was looking at the stained glass windows and I saw the story of England

and the story of Christ in all of the windows.

You know, you don't feel this way in America.

but when you were standing in something that was, you know, from the 12th century, you realize

this is how they told stories.

This is how people, they couldn't read.

This is how they understood what was going on.

We have now gone to a society and artists that are

not telling a story or at least not the American story.

So I've compiled a bunch of really good artists, or about 30 of them, and we're going to do the American Narratives in Fine Art show.

It is happening at my studio.

I will be there.

And it's happening on the September 20th and 21st.

That's just a few weeks away, September 20th and 21st at Mercury Studios.

You can get your tickets there.

One of my favorite artists is Albin Veselka.

I just love his.

He's a guy who really has

taken art.

He's a master painter already, but

he was captivated when he came up to the ranch with a bunch of others by some of the people that were teaching all of us how to tell a story.

And he took it on.

And

I bought, I think, your first storytelling piece of art, didn't I, Albin?

Yeah.

Sell them there.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Can you hear me?

Yeah, I got you.

Okay, sorry.

Yeah,

I think I bought your cowboy one, which I think was the first time that you started telling

a story, which I just love.

You know, yeah, that's the first thing I've done outside of being commissioned for specific stories where a client was telling me.

And yeah, I really enjoy that process and that learning process.

So you picked, we had all of the artists go through the museum, and you picked

two stories.

Tell me what you picked and what inspired you.

Why did you pick them?

Okay.

First of all,

Bass Reeves, I had never heard of Bass Reeves until we started doing research about what kind of stories he wanted to tell about America.

And he had such an amazing life, so many great stories

just

his career.

He was the first African-American U.S.

Marshal.

And he brought in something like 2,000 or 3,000 convicts and had a very, very strong Christian principle in his life.

In fact,

he would preach the gospel to his captive audience, if you will, well, he's bringing them into prison.

And one of those stories is told in these four paintings that I've done.

So I've done three of his life.

So hang on just a second.

Hang on just a second.

Wait, wait, wait.

So one of the things that you may not know, if you've never heard Bass Reeves, he is, the legend is that he is the inspiration for the Lone Ranger.

Whether that's true or not, we don't know.

Yeah, we're not sure if that's true or not, but his story is just as amazing as all the fictional stories of The Lone Ranger.

Yeah, yeah.

And

so he had to arrest his own son at one point.

So a couple of your paintings are about that.

Can you tell that story?

Yeah, so first of all, he found out one of my paintings is when he finds out that the son is

wanted.

And I tried to tell that story from the perspective of the emotion on

the face of the guy that's presenting him with that information and with the poster of his son.

And another painting is when he has his son in jail and he's actually

talking to him, extending the Bible to him, trying to help him to realize the error of his ways.

And it's a great, I mean, I don't want to take too much time telling each story, but I can really get carried away with them.

People can go on the website and read those full stories that I have connected to my paintings if you go to American Narratives and Fine Art.

This guy was so righteous and so good.

He had to arrest his son for murder.

His son, I believe, was hanged,

but he was

with him the whole time, wasn't he?

No, he wasn't hanged.

He actually served about 18 years, I believe, and was really

on good behavior.

So

anyway, it was, I did a lot of research in this, and I was, there's a lot of information back and forth about him, but he has so many amazing stories and

his life was just full of them.

So it was easy to find paintings to do of his life.

Yeah.

And then you did,

then you did Texas' son,

Stephen F.

Austin.

What inspired this?

He was just the primary founder of Texas.

What inspired it was, was, again, just learning about the man.

His father was supposed to be the primary founder of Texas, primary settler to bring a bunch of people to Texas.

But en route, his father died when he was coming back home with the papers that authorized him to do so.

And he just,

it was his father's dying wish that he took up that

mission and fulfilled it.

And he did in spectacular fashion.

And it's because of him that Texas is, you know, it's

there's so much to tell, so little time.

But man, I really think that in times like these, American history and the true American history,

we need to get these truths out there.

And Glenn, that's what you're all about.

And that's why I love that you're heading up this thing and giving us this opportunity to put our talents to use to help people to see the things that can save our country or are important to them to help them live better lives.

And

we're talking to the right audience, and

we have you on our side, and your art's going to

be right there with everyone else.

It's just going to be an amazing show.

I'd encourage everybody to go.

Yeah.

So, Albin, thank you so much.

And your work is spectacular as always.

So, thank you.

And we'll see you in a couple of weeks.

Thank you, Brian.

You bet.

Also, one of the things that makes this different, first of all, there will be

awards to the artists, but

it'll be judged by you.

It's not going to, we're not going to have a bunch of art critics there.

We want to know what stories you really connected to.

Who was the, what painting was the one that really connected you to that story?

The other thing that makes this art show different is all of the

artifacts that we have from the museum.

For instance,

it shows in Albin's

painting, it shows Stephen F.

Austin coming riding a horse with parchment rolled up in his hand.

We have that parchment.

It was written in Stephen F.

Austin's own hand, and it was the conditions

that Mexico gave to the Stephen F.

Austin in the United States that said you can open a colony here.

And what's amazing about this document is I wish we would settle on these terms now.

Mexico said to Austin, if you want a colony in Texas, which is property of Mexico now,

we are a Spanish-speaking country.

So you have to have, for every 250 families, you have to build a Spanish-speaking church and a Spanish-speaking school.

You can't let anybody in who has a criminal record.

If we find out that somebody has committed a crime in the colony and you don't tell us first,

we'll close the whole thing down.

I mean, they were sticklers on all the things that countries should be sticklers on.

But you will see that actual document and then the painting with him on the horse holding the document.

So it's a museum and an art show and a story fest all weekend long.

You can get your tickets now at

glenbeck.com or you can go to the website AmericanNarrativesinfineart.com.

AmericanNarrativesInfineart.com and we will see you at the Mercury Studios in Dallas, Texas in a couple of weeks.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

In just a minute, we're going to continue on Kamala Harris, what she said last night, and some interesting things that have come to light.

Stu has been going back in time and, you know, the internet is forever and found something really interesting we're going to talk about here in a second.

But first,

I'm going to have to cut out of here a little early today because I have to catch a flight to Washington, D.C.

I am joining the National March for Kids tomorrow.

It's 19 hours away.

If you want to get involved, you can still do it.

Just go to marchforkids.com.

But this is

just many, many, many groups coming together to say,

hands off our children.

We don't want them groomed.

We don't want them to be,

you know, some sort of a advocate for anything in second grade.

Leave our kids alone.

And

somebody's got to stand up for the kids.

Somebody also has to stand up for women again.

But March for Kids, it's at Constitutional Hull.

It starts at, I think, 10 a.m.

tomorrow morning.

Jeez, do I have to get up and then walk?

I'm not happy about this.

And then I'm speaking with Alvida King and Tulsi Gabbard

also tomorrow.

And tonight, I'm with Tulsi Gabbard and Donald Trump at Moms for Liberty and their convention in Washington, D.C.

So it's really an exciting weekend and very, very positive.

Make sure you just check it out and spread the news and retweet anything that you see coming from anybody in the March for Kids to help get the word out.

Yeah, everyone wants wants to stand up for kids, but when they add exercise to it, it's really disconcerting.

I know.

I know.

How far do we have to walk?

I mean, honestly.

Can't we virtually walk?

Is that a...

Can we?

I mean, it's a DAR constitutional, a constitutional hall.

That's a pretty big building.

How about we just walk around the building once and then we sit down inside, have snacks.

I think that works.

Yeah, no, we were, you were mentioning that we were talking about this

interview, and we've been discussing it all day.

Maybe we'll go into this a little bit more next hour.

But there's this idea that Kamala Harris reversed her position on fracking, and her answer was interesting.

She said she reversed it on the debate stage in 2020.

And I didn't remember that at all.

Fascinating because, first of all, she didn't even make it.

Her campaign didn't make it until 2020, if I remember right.

I mean, she bailed before Iowa.

So the debates where she was talking about fracking were in 2019.

Which debate did you do in 2020?

Of course, the vice presidential debate, right, against Mark Pence.

And when you listen to that clip back, what she says is not that she reversed her opinion.

She said, Joe Biden will not ban fracking.

That is a fact.

Joe Biden will not ban fracking.

Now, Biden had a...

stance that was out there publicly.

He's trying to win Pennsylvania.

He's out there publicly saying he won't ban it.

He was kind of on the right side of the Democratic Party on that issue.

But she did not reverse her

opinion.

She just said Joe Biden wasn't going to do it.

And now she's saying, well, we were able to do so much for the environment without banning fracking.

I guess we can do it without banning fracking.

None of this is real.

This is.

None of it.

You can't.

You can't do the Green New Deal without banning fracking and oil and everything else.

You just can't do it.

You just can't do it.

And what a loophole that is.

My gosh, these guys are so slick, aren't they?

She said Joe Biden would not ban fracking for a reason back in 2020.

She didn't say we won't.

She said he won't.

When you purchase products made in America by American Giant, you're casting a vote for American manufacturing for workers in America, for American quality.

We have to make more things here.

That's pretty obvious.

We can't expect the Chinese government to play fair.

That's not going to happen.

They've shown us who they are.

I think we pretty much know at this point.

Now, American Giant clothing is different.

It's investing in America when you buy something from American Giant.

You're sending a message that American manufacturing actually matters.

You know, it connects us.

It is something you're really going to enjoy, and you're also going to be doing something really, really good.

This right here, I want to wear right now.

It's an American Giant.

That's when I came in today.

I was running late.

I'm like, I'm going to pop out something comfortable that I'm going to love.

And it's an American Giant quarter zip.

Got no room

if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight

and hold the line.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

It's due in for Glenn here on the Glenn Beck program.

We have some interesting developments.

Nate Silver has a new leader in his election model we will tell you about that change also go into the interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Walls last night lots to get into and we'll start that in 60 seconds

Now if you're my age or Glenn's age you remember the Reagan era of course you probably hear a lot about it But you know not necessarily everybody remembers it We forget it's a long time ago and we kind of maybe don't appreciate how good we had it even at the tail end of the Cold War we had a president who knew and could identify the forces of evil, who fought those forces.

So if we remember those days, that's great, but does the next generation know about them?

I mean, they're just hearing Reagan get trashed all the time.

They have no idea.

Ronald Reagan is no more real to them than Abraham Lincoln.

He's just kind of some face in a dusty history book somewhere.

Well, here's a chance to introduce them to him.

The Reagan movie.

It's starting Dennis Quaid.

It is coming out today, right?

It's today.

It's out.

I got to see this this weekend.

I'm really excited to to do it.

I want to take my kids to it as well.

Make sure your whole family has seen it.

Glenn saw it kind of an early version of a while ago, loved it.

And we're going to play you some of his interview with Dennis Quaid here in just a couple of minutes, who plays Reagan in this movie.

So grab your friends, grab your family, grab everybody in your church.

Go see this movie.

Get your tickets now at ReaganMovie.com.

ReaganMovie.com.

It is in theaters right now, ReaganMovie.com.

You know, Ronald Reagan was the president when I was a kid, and he's kind of the first president I remember.

He was kind of a

national hero.

And I don't think it's too crazy to say that because here's a guy who had an incredible life and did all sorts of amazing things

and

then won 49 states in the 1984 election.

49 states, only losing the home state of his opponent.

I mean, can you even think about that?

We've been talking about the election so much, and I do a podcast called State of the Race.

It's available wherever you get your podcasts.

Just search for the Stu Does America feed, and you will get it in there as well as my show.

And we talk about these things, and we were discussing it in the concept, in the context of RFK Jr.

And RFK Jr.

is a guy who I think will make a difference here.

This endorsement, I think, is meaningful.

Why?

Well, you know, he's a candidate.

They only had 4%.

Why is it so meaningful?

Well, it's meaningful because

we are in a situation where everybody is so polarized that look,

half the country, basically, slightly less than half of the country, will not even consider voting for Donald Trump, even if God comes down from the heavens and says, vote for Don.

Like that, there is nothing that can make this occur for them.

And if you think like, oh, well, that's overstating it.

Think about yourself for a second.

Is there any occurrence that could happen in the next few months that would make you vote for Kamala Harris?

Anything.

Could anything occur to make you vote for her?

My guess is the overwhelming majority of those listening right now, the answer to that is no, there's nothing.

And of course, that sort of division still existed throughout history.

There was always contentious divisions politically.

But Ronald Reagan was able to completely destroy them.

He was able to completely roll over the divisions that existed in the country.

And they weren't as concrete as they are today.

It was a little bit easier to win what you might call a landslide election, but 49 states,

the dude was special.

And

there's a big debate on the right about whether we should kind of just forget the, you know, the Reagan era.

We were too caught up in it.

And then there's another side of that saying, like, well, actually, it was pretty successful.

Maybe we should look at those things.

And you can't exactly translate, like, it's hard to defeat the Soviet Union when they've already been defeated.

I get that.

But there are a lot of real lessons you can take from the Reagan era and that we should continue to take forward.

And we should also stop and remember our successes every once in a while.

I think conservatives get very

get beat up a little bit being a conservative.

The media is against you all the time.

Every celebrity is pretty much against you.

You know, you go online and you say something that's obviously true and you get called a racist and a Nazi and a fascist and all these different things and you get kind of beat up and you start thinking, gosh, we never win anything.

Well, we have had many victories.

Obviously, Trump's victory in 2016, which led to the overturning of Roe versus Wade, and one of the central things that Ronald Reagan would have loved to achieve in his presidency, but was unable to.

There were many victories.

Republicans do win elections.

There are things that do get done.

I mean, the Second Amendment has come a very long way.

School choice is a great example right now.

I've been talking about school choice for 20 years on the radio, and

really it never made much progress until the last three or four.

One of the very

few positive outcomes that have come from the COVID-19 era.

We've made real progress on school choice, impressive progress.

You do have some victories.

Roe v.

Wade is a major one as well, as we just discussed.

And of course, you go back to the era of the Soviet Union and everything that was going on in the 80s.

Reagan was able to do things that no one thought was possible.

There's a new movie out, as I mentioned, this weekend.

It stars Dennis Quaid.

It is called Reagan.

And it goes through basically his entire life.

And Glenn was lucky enough to have Dennis Quaid to his ranch in Idaho.

And this podcast is out right now.

If you're a Blaze TV subscriber, you can check this out.

And it is an incredible interview.

You know, Dennis Quaid is, you know, he's a major A-list superstar in Hollywood and is, you know, married to Meg Ryan at one point.

I mean, he was, you know, he's massively huge.

But,

you know, you don't know much necessarily about his story.

You definitely want to listen to this interview because it's not only about Ronald Reagan, but it is about Dennis Quaid in a way you probably have never heard him speak before.

He actually, Reagan is his favorite president, but he was very hesitant to take that role initially.

And Glenn asked him about that.

Listen.

So watched your movie.

Love it.

Thank you.

Absolutely love it.

Yeah.

How frightening was it to take on Reagan?

It was the scariest

role of my life, really.

It's not my favorite movie that I've ever done

before that was the right stuff but i judge my movies by the time that i had while i was making them it's a personal experience for me you know so after 40 years reagent is now my favorite but when they asked me to do it i didn't say yes and i didn't say no and you know this fear went up my spine because regan was my favorite president i had voted for jimmy carter in 76.

we all make a mistake yes but um

you know at the time he was was an outsider, was post-Watergate and all that, you know, and

what that was going to bring to Washington, which didn't get brought.

Reagan was my favorite president.

I voted for him, and I came home and I had a roommate at the time, back in 1980.

He said, Who'd you vote for?

I said, Reagan.

And he said, You are kicked out of the hippies.

That's really what I was sad.

So I had to turn in my card and everything.

It was, that was.

Kicked out there.

So,

you know,

I really so admired him.

And

he won the Cold War.

And he was my dad's favorite president, too.

My dad had been talking about Ronald Reagan for president since back, like 68, 64.

He was fantastic.

In fact, my first memory of Reagan, outside of him being the guy who sold Baraxo soap from Death Valley days,

was

being in the car with my dad going down to Galveston from Houston, which is where I'm from.

And

Reagan was giving the speech

on the radio.

Yeah.

Or the day of choosing or

time of choosing.

Yeah, time of choosing.

And

my dad was like on the dashboard.

It was just like

go Ronnie and stuff.

And

that was my first memory of him as a political figure.

Where then is the road to peace?

Well, it's a simple answer after all.

You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, there is a price we will not pay.

There is a point beyond which they must not advance.

Inspiring.

Yeah, it really is an incredible speech.

Yeah, it is, and timely still today.

That was my first awareness of him as a political figure.

And

so,

but, you know, he was to take the role, like I said, I had, you know, fear went up my spine because he's like Muhammad Ali, he's one of the,

probably one of the most recognized people all over the world, period.

Like Trump has such an opinion about him.

And

I didn't want to do like an impersonation of him.

He was my, I mean, he's,

you know, probably my biggest hero

in a way.

What is it about him that he won the Cold War?

Kind of a big deal winning the Cold War.

Certainly something that he will always be remembered by.

Of course, the economy.

I mean, just think of the economy.

And also just watching Reagan give a speech and answer questions.

And then you watch people like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris try to do the same thing.

And it is

an embarrassment in comparison.

It's an embarrassment.

Not just

the principles and the policies, but just...

The ability, the political talent is in just another realm.

Now, one of the things you do when you're covering a news story, and this has happened to Glenn and I many, many times, where you talk about a story over and over and over and over again, and then you get involved in it enough to actually go to where

the actual story occurred and feel that environment.

And it's one thing to talk about it from the studio I'm sitting in now.

It's another thing to go to the location and just feel it.

And sometimes the second you step off an airplane and you get to the place, you you step out of the car and you're at the place that you've been talking about, you get a whole different perspective and you're able to just feel that story more in a different way, but also in a more vivid way than ever before.

And sometimes it totally changes the way you feel about a news story.

This, of course, also happens when you're an actor and you're able to really take that stuff in.

And Dennis Guade talked about that as well.

There was a part of Reagan and my research of it,

people who knew him, that

there was kind of the great communicator, there was this unreachable, very private place

in him that I think even Nancy felt to a certain extent, although she probably knew him the best.

And

I think that's where Reagan resided.

I think it was his relationship with God.

I think it was his most private thoughts and

probably

a shield

from the people around him because he had so many people always,

you know, around him, at least in his political career.

But I think this also went back to his childhood

where

he could have that private

place.

And it's almost

Japanese in that, you know, that what they're talking about, having having the privacy in the midst of

so much going on.

You know, I think part of that is what made him a great communicator.

But getting to that

is what I needed to get to because I knew I was going to be really judged and stuff.

And so, I

read

several biographies, and but I went to the Reagan Ranch, I got invited up there.

That's and that is was the Western White House.

That's where they lived.

He bought that back after

being governor of California.

Do you have any idea?

When I saw that scene, I thought,

good heavens,

at that time, how much did they pay for that?

Yeah.

Oh,

I'm sure.

It was at the top of the hill, too.

It's not a stream going through it.

But

so.

I went there, a group of friends bought it after his passing, and they kept it exactly as it was.

I mean, their clothes are in the closet.

It's like you feel that they're going to come back any moment.

But I went through the first, you go up five miles of the worst road in California to get to this place.

There's a lot of bad roads in California.

Yeah, this one's bad.

And

went through the gate and you come out, and you see the place and the house and the

field and the fences and the pond.

And

I got Reagan.

Right there, you can feel him.

I realized that he was a humble man.

He was not a rich man.

And,

you know, go into the house, they had a king-size bed, but it was two single beds that were zip-tied together.

Oh, my God.

All the appliances are GE.

He used to be the sponsor for GE.

Right.

And

the house itself is maybe 1,100 square feet.

You know, 1,100 square feet.

Yeah.

And

you can feel that he really did do all the work around that place.

And

that's when I said yes to the role was after that trip.

After that.

It's an incredible interview, and it's not just about Reagan.

It goes into the life of Dennis Quaid as well.

We'll get into that here in a couple of minutes.

First, let's talk about Leaf Home Gutter.

You know, there's always someone out there in the world whose primary goal in life is to make sure that you don't get a moment to kick back and relax, like ever.

And because the world is filled with irony, chances are good that you're married to that person and she's always telling you to do things like go clean the leaves out of the gutter.

And now you could do that.

You could.

You could.

Swearing under your breath the entire time.

Or...

You could just get the leaf filter from Leaf Home Gutters.

It is a filter for your gutters that helps protect your home from flooding, roof damage, rotting siding, foundation issues, all that, and a lot more.

Best of all, you won't have to do the stupid cleaning the gutters.

Dennis Quaid is starting in Reagan coming out today.

And, you know, he's had a great, big Hollywood successful career and all that, but life hasn't always been so wonderful.

Here's a little bit more with Glenn Beck and Dennis Quaid.

I experienced actually in the last

eight years

I would say the equivalent of

a kind of a nervous breakdown, to tell you the truth, because

I was turning 60.

which freaked me out.

But there were a lot of things going on in my life that I wasn't being authentic to myself.

You know,

I think think I was showing one thing to the world, but I was inside and wasn't a terrible person or anything, but it was like

just things in me that

needed realignment.

Yeah, it needed realignment.

And I drew upon

that personal relationship

to get there.

And it's a voice.

that

in one's head, you know, the voice that tells you you're not good enough, you know, you're not smart enough, and people don't like you, you know, the Saturday Night Life scare.

We all have that voice inside our head, and sometimes that voice can take over.

And it keeps you from,

it keeps you from being who you are.

And

funny enough, it, you know, along with Jesus, was Yoko Ono,

who really kind of like gave me a little

bit of a titbit.

You get your hippie card.

Titbit to get out of that.

She said after John, she just practiced,

she went six months, she was a wreck, and she just started like smiling at herself in the mirror or trying to.

And she didn't believe it for six months.

But it actually turned into genuine.

And it's about really looking into yourself.

really seeing yourself and nurturing yourself and um and wanting to.

I mean, I know I looked at myself in a mirror for a long time and saying, you're worthless,

you're weak.

How can this happen to you?

And my dad said, start

saying things that you want to believe about yourself and look yourself in the eye.

Boy, there's a long time you looked at yourself.

Oh, I heard it from Yoko Ono.

I didn't even like Yoko Ono before that.

Tell you the truth.

You know, the Beatles thing going way back there.

But, you know, it has never realized, you know, that

happiness is a choice or that way.

I hate to say the word happiness because it's such a blanket thing, but it's

what can I say?

It's a feeling of wholeness inside.

Peace.

Yeah.

Feeling of authenticity.

And once you kind of like,

you know, they say confess your sins or this or that.

What it is, it's a throwing off of it.

And then

you're free.

Yeah.

You're free of all that.

And

so

that was, you know, that was a deepening.

And I feel that,

you know, like I said, God's pruning or, you know, I'm still enjoying lessons.

I thought, you know, by the time I got to be 60 or by the time I got to be 70, I would have, you know, figured.

figured it all out, been through all those like phases of my life.

But then again, I didn't realize that I never knew what it was like to be 60 and I never knew what it was like to be 70.

Why would you have things figured out?

It's an amazing interview with Dennis Quaid, and I have not seen the movie yet.

I'm hoping to see it this weekend.

I'm going to go with the family, I think, and check it out.

It's Reagan.

It's in theaters this weekend.

Make sure to go and see it.

We have to make sure that people know the truth about conservatives every once in a while, too.

Glenn Beck.

Let's go through a little time tunnel, shall we?

It's September of 1929, and a man named Roger Babson has just predicted that very soon the stock market is going to crash.

He knew the signs.

He knew what time it was.

And you know what happened when he made his prediction?

Nothing.

Pretty much nobody listened to him until about a month and a half later,

because, you know, then the market crashed and then the Great Depression began.

You know,

I'm no predictor of the markets.

I don't know.

But I will say, it's always good to be prepared for what's coming around the corner.

We don't necessarily have the luxury of putting our heads in the sand and pretending the stuff isn't going on.

You got to do something about it.

Now's the time to be buying precious metals.

We recommend here, of course, Lear Capital.

Now, this is where Glenn bought his first gold like a zillion years ago.

We have more on the Kamala Tin Walls extravaganza from yesterday.

It's coming up next.

Chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more, can make me feel like a spectator in my own life.

Botox, onobotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine.

It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month.

It's the number one prescribed branded chronic migraine preventive treatment.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

Alert your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems, or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection side pain, fatigue, and headache.

Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness.

Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection.

Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects.

Why wait?

Ask your doctor, visit BotoxChronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-Botox to learn more.

Triple 8727 BECK is the phone number.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

It's Stu Infor Glenn here for the last hour.

And Glenn has an event with Donald Trump in DC

and needed to leave a little bit early on the flight.

So I knew I had this last hour to myself.

And, you know, I don't know if you've ever heard Glenn.

he runs his mouth quite a bit.

It's hard for me to get a word in edge-wise sometimes.

So I kind of had a decision to make here in this last hour as to what I wanted to do.

And we had the opportunity to play the Reagan clips, which I was excited to do.

I'm excited to see this podcast and also this movie this weekend.

But also, part of it was also just to calm myself down and

because I am

really, really angry over a couple of things.

Probably the main one being the interview I watched last night now you can go to youtube.com slash studios America and check out the moments directly after that interview aired I was on live from my house doing a we do we've been doing a lot of these lives lately and had a really good time with them because you know you

like I don't even have another episode of Studios America until Monday.

So I have a bunch of time to to wait until I have another show to kind of rant about these topics.

And sometimes you just need to go live right after it.

And so we've been doing that after all these big news events.

If you have, if you're on YouTube at all, go to youtube.com slash studios America.

Follow the show.

Click the bell for notifications.

If you click the bell for notifications, they'll let you know whenever we go live.

And they're not like

necessarily planned way in advance or on some routine schedule.

It's just kind of when stuff happens.

We'll go live, we'll break it down for you, and then also answer your questions.

And we've had a great time with all the people who've come there.

So youtube.com slash studosamerica.

And I was going through this last night and I was watching the Dana Bash interview with some interest, not only in what Walls and Harris would actually let spill out of their mouths, but also what Dana Bash would do, because I had just watched her interview with JD Vance, which was incredibly, incredibly adversarial.

Like it was...

angry from minute one to the end.

The tone of it was immensely negative all the way through.

And I wanted to see if she would match that tone.

Will she come after Harris and Walls the same way she came after JD Vance, who, by the way, has been very available for interviews.

He's been on almost every show.

He has probably, I mean, this is something we haven't discussed in that much detail, but J.D.

Vance has probably done more interviews in adversarial spaces than any candidate in a short period of time that I can remember since I've been covering politics.

This guy's doing three and four and five a weekend.

He's all over the place.

He's going on any show talking to anyone.

And regardless of what happens in this campaign, that should be something the media is praising like crazy.

Of course, they're not.

They're just using these opportunities to trash JD Vance.

And I want to get into a more recent one that happened this morning in just a couple of minutes because it was incredible.

But if you look at the Dana Bash performance here, It's sort of like the last three Star Wars movies, you know, seven, eight, and nine, episode seven, eight, and nine.

You know, you start out for the first third of the interview was like The Force Awakens, which was like, hey, that was okay.

I mean, it wasn't the best I've ever seen, the best Star Wars ever, obviously, but, you know, for a kickoff of a new trilogy, not so bad.

That's kind of Dana Bash in that first third.

She actually does follow up on a couple of questions.

Then...

The middle part of the interview was like The Last Jedi, which you just, you're watching it.

You're like, this isn't good at all.

Like, what are they doing here?

Do they know what they're supposed to be?

This has been, this is terrible.

It's like a D, maybe a D plus, if we're going to be generous.

This is not good.

But maybe they'll turn it around in the final one.

And then The Rise of Skywalker comes out and you're like, holy crap.

You want to talk about a big fat F?

That is what the last third of the interview.

I don't have any clips for you because it was so infuriating to watch.

They talked to them about Coleslaw.

They actually had a question about Coleslaw at the end of this interview.

They were talking about meals they were eating.

You had a question like, you know, Tim,

your son, Gus,

everyone loves him.

And how does that make you feel?

Seriously, questions like that.

Now, J.D.

Vance never gets a question like that.

Donald Trump certainly doesn't.

But J.D.

Vance, who has a storyline of rising out of poverty

to become a best-selling, well, first of all, actual military service, then

writing a best-selling book that becomes a movie praised by everybody.

The book was certainly praised by everybody.

The movie was, he had already become a little too conservative for that to be praised, but it was mixed reviews.

But the book was praised by everybody.

This is

a massively important cultural moment.

His book, Hillbelly Elegy.

He goes, he becomes a venture capitalist.

He has all of this success.

He has a lovely family.

He is married to

the daughter of immigrants.

He never gets a question like that.

You know, your wife and family are adorable.

Tell me about them.

That never happens, ever.

Unless he's on with like, you know, some conservative host.

Never from the mainstream media.

They had the whole second half of this interview, or last third of this interview with Dana Bash was like,

tell me how wonderful you are and give me specific examples.

I'm following up on that one and I want specifics.

Don't you try to generalize about how wonderful you are.

I want specifics, please.

It was embarrassing.

There is another question and this is all real.

I'm sure you didn't watch this interview.

This is why I do the YouTube lives because I know people don't actually watch this crap.

They can't take it.

I try to break it down in a way that will make you actually be able to survive to the end of the day.

But at one point, they asked her, they're like,

hey, Kamala,

at your convention,

there was a picture and it was the back of your niece's head.

And you're up there on stage giving a speech and she's paying attention to it.

It was a icon.

Conic photo.

What does it mean to you to have an example like that for your niece?

What a...

Please ramble on about your nice photo.

Now, I will say the photo was a dad iconic.

It was pretty.

It's an impressive photo.

But it's an impressive photo as if it were like the movie poster of a dictatorship.

It is the back of a kid's head, and

the candidate is like doing this speech 90 feet above her.

I don't know why it was a warm family moment.

It looks like this is what this dictator is now ruling the children is what it looked like to me.

It could be the cover of 1984.

But that was a wonderful moment and nothing, just wonderful platitudes and praise.

And look, I get it.

I know we should be expecting this crap by now.

I understand it.

But it is infuriating.

It is infuriating.

Today, on CNN, JD Vance again going into unfriendly territory, talking to, I think it was John Harwood.

And so this is his moment after the speech where J.D.

Vance posts a little clip and says, I've been able to uncover the full Kamala Harris interview.

And it's a clip of Miss South Teen South Carolina 2007.

You know this clip, right?

I'm not going to play it for you again.

Pat and I on the Pat and Stu show used to play this clip all the time.

And it was a clip of her saying,

well, you know, U.S.

Americans don't have maps and the Iraq and like such as.

And she's just like struggling through it.

She's caught off guard by the question.

She's a teenager.

She has no idea what to say.

And she gets lost.

And

it was a funny moment.

And it was one that everyone shared everywhere.

I mean, this thing has probably been shared as a meme 70 million times.

I'm just,

I'm guessing at that number, but it is, it was the,

in the early days, not in the early days, the mid days of the internet, one of the most popular clips anyone had ever seen.

And so he puts this up here.

Everyone knows what it is.

Basically, he's saying Kamala Harris, kind of an airhead, kind of in the middle of one of these word salads.

She, I mean,

might I give you, I'll give you the quote.

We could play, let's play this fracking clip real quick.

This is a Kamala press on her

fracking flip-flop.

Listen to what she says here.

There's a moment which is just fantastic.

No, and I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020.

First of all,

I'm never going to get through this clip.

I just know it right now.

There's no way I'm going to get through this whole clip.

First of all, she did not make it clear in 2020.

What she said in 2020, 2019, she comes out and she says, I will ban fracking.

There is no doubt about it.

In 2020, she becomes vice president after her presidential campaign stalls miserably with zero votes.

She becomes vice president.

She's handed this role by Joe Biden.

She gets on the stage with Mike Pence.

She's asked about the fracking situation.

What she says is, Joe Biden will not ban fracking.

Now, Biden had been public about that.

He had flip-flopped himself on it, but he had been public about saying he wasn't going to ban fracking.

The dude's trying to win in Pennsylvania, right?

So he says he's not going to ban fracking.

Kamala just, instead of saying, I will never ban fracking, I'm with Joe Biden.

He was right.

He convinced me.

She just says Joe Biden will not ban fracking.

That is a fact.

So she does not reverse her initial position.

Now she's trying to make you believe that secondary half measure to say I'm not going to ban fracking is true.

I'll leave it up to you if you believe that.

You also should not believe that.

Here's the rest of the clip.

And I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020.

No, you didn't.

That I would not ban fracking.

As vice president, I did not ban fracking.

As president, I will not ban fracking.

In 2019, I believe, at a town hall, you said you were asked, would you commit to implementing a federal ban on fracking on your first day in office?

And you said, there's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.

So yes.

So it changed in that campaign.

What changed there, Commi?

In 2020, I made very clear where I stand.

We are in 2024 and I've not changed that position nor will I going forward.

Nor will I going forward, even though she has done it already.

Did she predict that in 2019?

Well,

let's be clear.

My values have not changed.

I believe it is very important that we take seriously what we must do to

guard against what is a clear crisis in terms of the climate.

She has no idea idea where she's going to go.

And to do that, we can do what we have accomplished thus far.

Stop.

I want to read that to you so you understand what she just said.

I believe it is very important that we take seriously what we must do to guard against where there is a clear crisis in terms of the climate.

And to do that,

we can do

what we have

accomplished

thus far.

Now, that is a crap heap of an answer, okay?

Let's be honest about it.

No one on CNN is going to be honest about it.

Let's be honest about it.

That's a bunch of nothing.

And there's no reason to trust her on this.

So

this comes out.

J.D.

Vance releases the clip of Miss Teens, South Carolina, 2007.

And this morning, John Harwood has J.D.

Vance on and says, after a bunch of questions about what you'd expect the topic to be, you know, questions about

the interview and what she said,

he says, you posted this clip of Miss Teen, South Carolina in 2017, but I'm not sure if you're aware.

Later on, Caitlin Upton, I believe is her name, she came out and she said that she went through lots of depression.

She was crushed by this.

She had dark moments and she considered suicide.

Do you still think it was appropriate for you to post this meme?

A real thing that happened.

I have not found the clip yet.

I got to go get it.

Maybe it's worth bringing back on Monday.

But I felt like I was in a fever dream.

Did this guy really enter into this is the vice presidential candidate for the Republican Party

for VP?

This is a big election here.

You can ask him anything about policy.

You're asking him about a meme and how it affected a teenager in 2007?

it's 2024 it was 17 years ago and by the way

she did apparently go through a tough period right after this

we wound up playing this clip years and years later And she came on the show at one point.

I'm pretty sure she came on the show.

It's weird.

I'm having this like mental block.

I'm almost positive she came on.

It was either this or we played the clip a bunch of times, but I'm almost positive she came on.

And she talked to us about it.

And she was very, like, she embraced it She embraced the fun of it She realized she had a bad moment She realized she had a bad moment in the public eye and She got over it and she embraced it and she had fun she wound up getting a lot of public roles out of it She's done talking about it now understandably after all of these years but like she's over it

and like to bring if you actually believed Because he then followed up with, well, will you apologize to her?

If you actually believed she was suicidal, you wouldn't be bringing it up, John.

You have these bad moments sometimes.

You get over them.

Just like you, John, just because you did a terrible interview today doesn't mean someday you'll do a good one.

Now, I don't see it around the corner for you, frankly.

I don't see that in the near future, but maybe somehow you will be able to do a competent interview at some point in your future.

Maybe.

Miracles occur.

See, this is why I played the Reagan Cliffs.

This is why, because I knew I was going to get like this.

Can't wait for this weekend.

Three-day weekend, baby.

I need it.

What are we on here?

Relief Factor.

Gosh, I could use some Relief Factor right now.

The pain of this election must be cured, and maybe Relief Factor can do it.

Alicia wrote in recently about her experience with Relief Factor.

She says, Kamala Harris is driving me insane, and Relief Factor cleared it.

No, that's not what she said.

She said, I'm a grocery store worker and do a lot of double shifts.

At 52 years of age, I don't get much rest from my bad knees.

But for years now, I've been limping to and from bed.

I heard you talking about Relief Factor.

I thought I'd try it.

Wow, it is just a few days into Relief Factor and the pain has already decreased substantially already.

Oh my.

The Glenn Beck program will be right back.

Some spa music to calm me down here on the Glen Beck program as we head into Labor Day weekend.

I need it, and I think you need some good news as well to head yourself into the weekend.

So let me give it to you.

I mentioned this earlier this week.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is Kamala's peak week.

This is when we look back at her peak of her campaign.

We did a show on Monday called Kamala's Peak.

And I said, you know, I wouldn't be surprised if stuff like Nate Silver's forecast starts showing Trump ahead really soon, maybe this week, maybe next week.

As of today, Donald Trump, the favorite, 52.4% chance to win the presidency.
