Let me tell you a little bit about rough greens.

As a dog owner, how often are you thinking about the food that you're giving your best friend?

Me, very little.

You know, since I...

Don't have to hand feed the dog anymore.

I think very little of it.

And the reason why I don't have to hand feed him is because I'm putting Rough Greens on top, and I know it has the vitamins and minerals and probiotics and everything else that he needs to lead a healthy and happy life.

So he's slowing down.

He's getting older, but I think Rough Greens has given him

a longer life.

I know a healthier life.

if we're gonna survive.

Stay the straight

and hold the line.

It's a new

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Well, hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

Robert F.

Kennedy Jr., that's where we begin in 60 seconds first.

I have to tell you

things are on the edge.

And if we become an unstable nation, it is most likely that we will lose

our reserve currency status, which means our dollar will become Venezuela overnight.

And the reason why I know that's true is because they've always told me we'll never lose our world reserve currency.

We're the

least stinky poop in the pile.

Oh, well, that's great.

Well, we're going to lose it, gang.

We already have actors all over the world moving in that direction.

Listen, please call Lear Capital today.

They can help you build a protective hedge against economic insanity.

I want you to call them today, get their book on how you can...

you know, how you can build that hedge and why it's a good idea.

It's a free wealth protection guide.

Lear Capital will also credit your account $250 towards your purchases because you're a listener of mine.

So call 800-957-GOLD, please.

Gold or silver, do it today.

800-957-GOL.

800-957-GOLD.

All right.

So Friday afternoon, we haven't had a chance to chat about this.

Friday afternoon,

RFK came out in Arizona and endorsed Donald Trump.

And it was, I mean, his speech, which immediately was cut off by CNN, was, I thought, tremendous.

Stu,

welcome.

Hey, Glenn.

Yeah, I thought a lot of it was really good.

He hit all the, I think, very true notes about free speech and the left and the way the media is reacting.

You know, I'm not the biggest RFK Jr.

fan in the world, but it's a very positive development for Donald Trump and his campaign.

And, you know, look,

you're talking about a race where probably the entire range of outcomes is Trump plus four to Trump minus four.

And in a race like that, if you can pull a point away, maybe a point and a half, because of RFK Jr.

dropping out and endorsing you, that's a big development in a campaign.

Everyone's trying to downplay it, but I don't think that's the right way to look at it.

No, and

I think it's more than just his voters.

I think this will affect a Kennedy endorsing Donald Trump.

That's insane, especially this Kennedy, who's as far left as you can get.

Why did he do it?

Because this Democratic Party needs to be stopped.

This Democratic Party is not a friend of democracy.

They are not a friend of freedom of speech.

They are an enemy of those things.

And he is

making that statement.

He's not necessarily for Donald Trump.

He's making the statement, this party is corrupt and you can't be a part of it.

Look how they tried to stop me, and they say they're defending democracy.

And it's not going to just stop with him.

How long will it be before the Green Party does the same thing?

You know what the Democrats are doing to the Green Party?

It's now going to the Supreme Court, they hope.

The

lawyers challenging the national Democrats to keep the Green Party off the Wisconsin ballots,

they think the Supreme Court's going to pick this up and decide quickly because

here's what the Democrats are arguing.

Have you heard this, Du?

What they're arguing?

I don't know that I've heard the specific argument here.

No.

Okay, yeah, this is crazy.

So in 2016, the Green Party made the ballot, but remember, that was credited partly to Hillary's loss, that the Green Party was on the ballot.

So they made sure, let's get them off the ballot.

Okay.

Four years ago, the

Wisconsin Elections Commission denied the Green Party a spot on the 2020 ballot because of a paperwork issue.

Ah, they didn't get their paperwork in time.

They always find the paperwork issues, as they did with Cornell West recently, this election.

Yeah, they sure do.

So this time,

they're adding a requirement laid out in the U.S.

Constitution.

You're going to be a presidential candidate.

You need to be 35 years old.

Check.

14 years a resident of the United States and a natural-born citizen.

Check.

And now they've added a new one.

You have to be a Republican or a Democrat.

What?

What?

Now, that's certainly how they've been acting not only this year, but many, many years.

But that's their actual argument is you have to be a Republican or Democratic?

Actual argument.

Their actual argument.

And which state is this?

Wisconsin or Michigan, did you say?

Wisconsin.

Wisconsin.

Wisconsin.

Okay.

I mean, I don't know.

It doesn't seem like they're exactly the party of democracy.

This is what dictators do.

They try to jail

their competitors, and they do everything they can to stop any other competitor from getting onto the ballot.

This is the, I mean, we all know this, don't we?

This is what happens in banana republics.

This is what happens in Russia.

This is what happens in Iran.

This is what happens with the Taliban.

You think that they just let anybody on?

No.

They choose.

Now, it is amazing to me how these guys are choosing

to

stand up for democracy.

The Democrats have just won another legal challenge to keep Cornell West off the ballot.

So you have Robert F.

Kennedy, the Green Party,

and Cornell West,

all as left as you can get.

They're all complaining that

the Democratic Party is shutting us down.

Not the Republicans, the Democrats.

I think you're going to see

some Democrats who are kind of those Reagan Democrats wake up to some of this.

And they wouldn't necessarily wake up with the Green Party, but I think they wake up with RFK.

A Democrat and a Kennedy.

I don't know.

They go kind of hand in hand.

It's possible.

I think, you know, you have...

When you look at it, I mean, I think you can look at it a bunch of different ways.

I mean, there's

a transactional part of this, which is, you know, can't be ignored, where this is a good thing for RFK, right?

Like, he's not going anywhere.

4%.

Yeah, totally.

He's been,

he is going to, I mean, he's being welcomed like he's a rock star by the Republicans.

He's also being shunned

like he is a traitor.

He was already shunned by those people.

That had already happened when he launched his campaign against Biden.

And back in the day, he was already being shunned by them.

He's got nothing left to lose from those people.

I think there is a difference between running against Biden and declaring your support

for Hitler.

I mean, that is a line, I think, that

you do not cross.

He doesn't get invited to Thanksgiving.

I mean, that's probably about the extent of it.

He's already lost every connection in the party.

And I think, look, he's been embraced for a solid year by the right, like in ways that they would normally not do with someone with his set of viewpoints.

So, I mean, I think he sees a future here.

And look, with Donald Trump, I think he sees an opportunity to do a lot of the things that he thinks are important.

His life's not a good idea.

And I don't have any problem.

I have no problem with him on a panel looking into all kinds of stuff for pharmaceutical companies.

I have no problem.

I have a problem.

I have a problem with a panel that is

completely staffed by clones of him and socialists, but that'll never happen because they're in bed with the pharmaceutical companies.

And

at the end of the day, Donald Trump has the power here.

If RFK Jr.

starts doing stupid crap, he can just fire him.

I mean, like, so what is the risk here?

Put him in there, let him do what he wants to do.

If it starts getting out of hand, fire the guy.

I mean, that's that he has all of those, he has all of that power.

And so this is, you know, something that I, you know, if I'm Donald Trump, I'm 100% embracing this because you're going to get some benefit out of it.

Absolutely.

And there's very little downside to it.

I personally think this is a massive, I think this is a really big deal because I think this is a domino.

People are seeing the arrest in Paris

of.

you know, another kind of Elon Musk and seeing people like Vinman coming out and saying, Elon Musk, you should be very afraid because they're going to do it to you too and saying it in a celebratory way.

I mean, they're seeing the clamping down of freedom of speech.

They're seeing the same conditions in this country that are coming from London.

They didn't hear any real meat from Kamala.

They know that she is a socialist.

But you combine all of these.

plus Kennedy, Cornell West, and the Green Party, proving that this is not

a party that celebrates democracy.

It's the exact opposite.

And I think you're going to start peeling people away like crazy.

I think this is the beginning of the unraveling because of their arrogance.

Now, if you watched his

pulling out of the race and his endorsement of Donald Trump, I thought it was fascinating.

I happen to disagree with you, Stu, on he has nothing to lose.

One of the things he said was,

the only thing that gives me hesitation is because of my family.

I know what is going to happen to my wife and my children

because of this decision today.

I think, you know,

you do

run a grave risk.

in this society if you're a a Kennedy, period.

If you're a Kennedy that runs against Biden, period.

And the third one is you're a Kennedy, you leave the party and you endorse Donald Trump.

I think that's an incredibly brave thing to do myself.

You know, I should clarify here.

There is something to lose, which is

Secret Service protection.

That went up in flames immediately.

They pulled it from him.

Yeah.

Well,

RFK,

he posted this over the weekend.

What MAGA really means.

The phrase has troubled liberals who think it is a call for a return to an America before the civil rights, gay rights, and women's rights.

But I have a more generous interpretation, one that is truer to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today.

Make America Great Again recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and belief in itself.

It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows.

It could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present, yet at the same time it could celebrate its successes.

Amen.

It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world's most vibrant middle class, an idealistic belief, though not consistently applied, in freedom, justice, and democracy.

It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology, and it was the healthiest country in the world.

I've talked to many Trump supporters.

I have talked with his inner circle.

I have talked to the man himself.

This is the America they wish to restore.

Well, thank you.

That's exactly right.

And if anybody in the press would actually talk to Trump supporters or actually feel what's going on in those rallies, you would know that as well.

But the press and this government, this regime, is pushing people into darker and darker places.

They are in Europe, they are starting to listen to Nazis, which is on the left, by the way.

Conservatives in America want freedom, maximum freedom and individual liberty.

Nazis don't want that.

Just want to let you know.

My response to RFK Jr.

on X from this weekend next.

First, let me tell you about relief factor sleep.

Getting poor sleep isn't just an inconvenience.

It absolutely ruins your day.

For one thing,

ruining your day and having you groggy all morning or sleepy in the afternoon.

It's also terrible for your health and it can be dangerous.

Ever fall asleep while you're driving because you got such terrible night's sleep the night before?

If you're somebody who has difficult sleeping,

if you find that

to be extraordinary, that you just can't fall asleep, may I suggest you try

Z Factor.

Z Factor.

We used to call it Relief Factor Sleep, but it's Z Factor, and it's 100% drug-free way to help you fall asleep faster, sleep better, and stay asleep longer.

Z Factor uses a formula of four natural ingredients to calm your mind, relax your body so you can ease into sleep, sleep sounder, and sleep through the night.

It works for me, it works for my wife.

Would you give it a try?

If you're losing sleep, it's worth the shot.

Z Factor.

You'll save 46% on your first order.

You just go to relieffactor.com, call 800 for Relief, 800, the number four relief.

10 seconds, station ID.

So I wrote a response to RFK

when he published that.

I read it and

I thought it was important to respond to him for what has happened this weekend.

I wrote, Robert F.

Kennedy Jr., yes, thank you.

This is exactly what we mean.

The self-examination of our wrongs have made us better, more clear, and empathetic.

But the hatred of our country, the hatred that so many try to push, is an infection in our family of man.

We have all engaged in it at times, either to win an argument or out of the spirit of anger and divisiveness.

We all must correct our ways, ask for forgiveness, and begin again.

It is driving a wedge that we must remove to come together.

And the only way we can come together is to rediscover the reason most of our families came here in the first place.

Like it or not, they are the same capitalized revolutionary works of our founding fathers.

They are the

same principles that your father, Martin Luther King and Lincoln espoused.

Yes, we have never met our goals in all men are created equal and endowed with certain inalienable rights.

But can you think of a grander goal?

If we could all truly come together, equal

and not separate, so many Americans are tired of being told to hate our country, hate our history, and hate our neighbor.

We make mistakes.

We then learn from them.

and we come together to march on in hopes of making a more perfect nation.

We need each other.

Opposition in all things is found in the scriptures.

Our diversity allows us to be strong, but only if we unify as work and work as one.

E pluribus unum, from many, one,

not in talent, not in wealth, failure, or success, but in mind and spirit.

We come together to be free and be a beacon of hope for all mankind.

That,

yes,

you can pursue your happiness here in America

we need to chart our own course and inspire others however without our rights which are outlined and codified in the Bill of Rights this cannot be done there will always be the natural man among us those who thrive on greed and power their tools are lies hatred distortion and fear those tools destroy and never build the world needs empathy, forgiveness, and truth.

Those are the tools of a master builder.

The truth shall set us free.

Let us rebuild and with the lessons of the past in mind, build anew.

This is the real task before each of us.

Are we willing to align ourselves with the principles that so many men and women died for?

I, for one, am ready.

And I begin by recognizing you, RFK Jr.

And I do not agree with many things that you say, but I need to recognize, I know the risk you are taking, the loss of so many friends and family, and the sacrifice your family will be forced to make due to your words and actions today in endorsing Donald Trump.

I believe this to be sincere.

You have willingly gone into the lion's den for love of country.

No man risks his entire life of comfort for nothing.

No man risks his life and is willing to be shot and/or die for principles he does not believe in and does not believe is worth dying for.

I believe your actions

may place you in your uncle's inspirational book, but many names will be listed from these times.

May we all be worthy and willing to stand.

Let us come together where we can and work all the rest out as friends and Americans later.

I think

this is a turning point.

Isn't it interesting that we're in

cycles?

We seem to be in a two-week cycle.

We had the

assassination attempt, and then we had

the RNC, and everybody's feeling good.

Then we had Biden quit

and Kamala come in, and we went through a two-week cycle at the end of her

DNC convention.

And then what happened?

Immediately after that, without a day's break, RFK comes in and we're in a Trump cycle again.

We live in interesting times.

Hello, America.

It's Monday.

This too shall pass.

Tomorrow it'll be Tuesday.

And this is the Glenn Beck program.

We were talking about RFK Jr.

and how, you know,

there's no risk for him going to the Republicans at this point because

he's been left by the Democrats.

And Kamala Harris didn't even return his phone calls, right?

But when you said that, I immediately thought his political risk, which I think is true.

I think that's correct.

I don't think there's political risk to this move.

I think it's upside for him.

However, when it comes to the fact, and we kind of just brushed over this, I think it's important to highlight, there's no justification to remove Secret Service protection from RFK Jr.

right now.

First of all, he's still a candidate in a bunch of states.

He's keeping himself on the ballot in, honestly, most of the states that he's going to be in.

So he's still a candidate.

He talked about some outlying possibility of how he could still become president in his speech.

He said that.

And he's still going to be on the ballot in Michigan because he can't pull himself off of it, probably Wisconsin as well.

But beyond all that, obviously the risks to RFK Jr., after what we saw in Pennsylvania, after what we've seen through the Kennedy family through all of these years, is legitimate and undoubtedly increased after what he's done here.

So when it comes to risk to his life, there is risk there.

And the fact that they pull his Secret Service protection immediately is, there's no justification for it unless you want the man to have something terrible to happen to him, which, of course, is actually the answer, probably.

It's really bad.

We welcome Pat Gray in from Pat Gray Unleash.

Hello, Pat.

Hello.

Happy to be here.

Happy to be here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Did you see the New Republic where they've come out and said that Kamala Harris is a historic figure that surpasses John F.

Kennedy

and Obama and Barack Obama?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's really

quite something.

I'm expecting

the Nobel Peace Prize nomination at any moment.

Any moment.

It's been the most amazing transformation of the perception of somebody in world history.

I mean, this woman had, was it 28% approval?

Maybe?

Yeah.

I think it was 28% approval.

And now she's better than the second coming of Barack Obama.

She's the first coming of, I don't know, the angel of light.

It's incredible.

I don't know how this happened.

Listen to this.

This is the new republic.

The division in our country was overcome during her electric speech on Thursday night, largely due to her leadership.

So that healed the wounds and the division.

She said, or he said, the writer, for my entire adult life, there have been two Democratic parties.

That's true.

And listen to this statement.

Now there is one.

Wow.

That's why Robert F.

Kennedy left.

There is one.

And it is not the one that you remember.

Not the one that, you know, our grandparents voted for with Roosevelt.

Certainly not the John F.

Kennedy.

I don't think John F.

Kennedy would even be welcome in the Democratic Party today.

No way would he.

It's now a party that rhymes with mommunist.

Kamalamist.

JFK would not recognize this.

They continually attach that to Republicans.

Oh, Ronald Reagan wouldn't even recognize Republican Party.

Are you kidding me?

This party is so Marxist in the Democrats now.

that the Communist Party of America doesn't ever have to come up with a candidate because the Democrats are always perfectly acceptable to them.

That's how bad it is.

They've been endorsing the last few candidates, the Communist Party of America.

And they did it with Joe Biden.

They did it with Barack Obama.

They'll probably do it with Kamala.

Oh, I'm sure they will.

I'm sure they will.

Between her and Tim Walls,

it is the socialist ticket.

That's what it is.

By the way, it's also the biggest liar ticket I've ever seen.

Oh, my God.

Did you see the latest on Tim Walls?

Apparently

on his bio, he years ago put that he was the outstanding young Nebrask

and

he was named that by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.

The problem is the Chamber of Commerce, the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce did all their research.

They're like,

you know, we've looked.

You've never received an award from us.

I mean, it's incredible.

And they came out and said

it was a typo.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It was a typo.

I have many times, in the middle of just paragraphs I'm writing, just wrote that I won an award in Nebraska.

I just do that all the time.

I think almost all of us have at one point or another.

How did that get in that email?

I don't even know.

I will say,

did they start the search for VP saying,

can can we find someone worse than George Santos?

Was that their number one goal?

It had to be.

Here, because it's incredible.

Every day, there's another story about how this guy made up another lie about his life.

I mean, I guess considering the president is Biden, who also does quite a bit of this thing, maybe it fits.

But I can't believe how many things and how many dumb things there are.

Like, who cares if you want an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce?

Try Try this one.

Her bio now says her hometown is Oakland.

Oh, yeah.

It wasn't.

It was Berkeley.

Berkeley.

You know, and

the residents of Berkeley are like, we get it.

I mean, we're really known as the communist,

the communist town.

So we see why she would run away and say that it's Berkeley.

She never mentioned Berkeley in her speech.

It's not on her bio, but that's where she is.

She's not a, quote, daughter of Oakland.

Yeah, that's what she calls herself.

Yeah, and it was amazing the way the story was written.

I think it was the New York Times, maybe, that wrote that one.

And it's like, it's not, do you believe this terrible lie by this candidate running from their past?

It's not that at all.

It's like, isn't this adorable?

Like, you know, they're super liberal.

They know it's okay because they're fine with it and everybody's fine with it.

I mean, she needs to win.

So if she needs to say Oakland to win, oh, well, what can you do?

Like, what?

Crazy.

You know, and

they are just

accepting it.

I mean, Bill Maher came out and he was really upset.

And he said, I think her not talking to the press is worse.

Try this out, Versailles, worse than Donald Trump saying the press is an enemy of the people.

He's like,

they just don't care.

They won't answer any questions at all.

He's like, this is really bad.

And yeah.

I mean, think of it.

Did you see Tom Cotton this weekend?

He was on

talking about this.

And one of the anchor, I think it was for CBS,

said John Carl.

It was ABC.

Oh, it was ABC.

And he said,

that's not her policy.

That's just not her policy.

And Tom Cotton said, Yes, it is.

And Carl came out and said, no, no, there was a statement that that's not what she believes in anymore.

It came from an unnamed, unknown source in the middle of the night.

By the way, she's not for that anymore.

Pass it on.

Yeah, and

Cotton correctly called it out and said,

because I think Carl said, you know, she says she's not for that.

And Carl correctly said, no, she doesn't.

She has not said that.

Where are you getting that from?

She has not said that because it's true.

It's all been just little leaks from like interns that are unnamed.

Hey, you know, she now has reversed herself on this.

And it's fascinating to watch how this stuff is treated.

In 2019, she came out with a million far-left policies that she's now reversed via statement to various news organizations.

Including the ban on fracking.

Yeah, yeah, ban on fracking.

Not from her.

Not from her.

Not from her.

Statements to the media.

And the media has dutifully

accepted all of those and gone on

with J.D.

Vance, with Tom Cotton, with Donald Trump, and attacked them for lying about her current position.

Like, they've taken the point of defense of these unnamed statements.

It's incredible.

On the other side of things,

Project 2025 is launched by the Heritage Foundation.

Donald Trump has nothing to do with it.

In fact, publicly denounces it over and over and over again, to the extent they shut the entire program down and fire the guy who's at the head of it.

Right.

And after all of that, they're still holding him responsible for Project 2025.

Right.

It's crazy.

He could not be more anti-Project 2025.

I actually feel bad for the Heritage Foundation.

I do, too, because there's nothing radically in it.

Right.

The good faith effort to draw up some policies, whether you like them or not.

But like, how can he be held responsible for this?

You know what he hasn't done?

He hasn't sworn a blood oath.

He hasn't cut his wrist,

stick his finger into his veins, and then ridden it out in blood.

I don't know.

He did take a bullet on stage.

He's pretty close to a blood oath.

I know.

I know.

Isn't that crazy?

They are just, it is amazing what they're trying to get away with.

And by the way, the House, members of the House now, the Democratic side, are all saying, no, Kamala was just throwing things out there when she was talking about, you know, price fixing.

That's not.

That's not.

I mean.

yeah they're behind the scenes saying that saying that look don't worry about it none of this stuff will get passed she's just saying that it's like okay

i i think that's plausible like i it would be very difficult to get that passed i think depending on what the makeup of congress was and i think it would probably there's at least a possibility the supreme court would overturn it even if they did get it passed but like why isn't she held responsible for these things it's it's incredible their goal with 100 certainty is to get her in under any circumstance they the media will do anything they can to get him in.

But what's amazing to me, if you believe in that statement, then why isn't she coming out herself and saying these reversals?

It's like she won't come out on stage and say them.

I mean, you shouldn't believe them anyway, because of what Stu just said.

They will do anything to make sure she's elected

and they'll erase all of her past.

But she's not coming out.

It's almost as if she's sitting there going, I'm not saying that.

I'm absolutely for that.

I'm not saying that.

It's the right strategy for this.

It's very reminiscent of Biden just running his campaign from his basement in 2020.

So I'd argue more extreme.

I think it's more extreme than that.

I mean, Biden, people are like, oh, he's just staying in the basement.

And that's true.

But he did do interviews.

I mean, you remember him saying, hey, you ain't black if you don't vote for me.

Like, those things happened.

From the basement.

Because he was doing interviews from the basement.

At least he was doing something in the basement.

She's not even doing that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

All right.

Back in a minute.

Thank you, Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.

Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

Concepts like the customer is always right used to shape the way we do business.

Not anymore.

Nope.

Companies were not ideological captured by wokeism.

And taking care of the customer's needs was more important than showing your leftist credentials.

These days, the business world and the tech sector in particular is morally barren and a wasteland.

It is filled with companies that march to the beat of the drums like DEI and companies that have made it very hard for you to spend dollars with them with a good conscience.

But every once in a while, if you look at the right place, you'll find a company that still wants to do business the American way.

Patriot Mobile, they share your values.

And unlike Big Mobile, they won't send your money to Planned Parenthood or other leftist causes.

Right now, when you make the switch to Patriot Mobile, you're going to get a whole month for free.

They're America's only Christian conservative mobile phone company.

So join them.

Save money.

Get the same great service in the coverage.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

Hey, you know, if you are thinking about your home, you might be thinking about some repairs around there.

You might be thinking about, I gotta get that done, I gotta get that done.

There's the honeydew list that's 55 miles long.

Let me just add one more thing to it.

But this one is easy to do.

It's protecting your home's title.

And you might think, well, my wife's not going to notice if I protect the home's title, so I'm not going to care about that.

And that's a valid point.

But I will say this, she's going to care a lot if this thing goes wrong, because if home title theft happens to you, you're going to be hearing about it all the time.

That's going to be a disaster.

You're talking about your accounts being emptied out.

You could have your equity being emptied out.

You could own hundreds or owe hundreds of thousands of dollars to lenders for loans you never took out.

They take your title, they sign it over to themselves, they sell the house on your behalf, they can borrow against your behalf,

your equity on your behalf.

Bottom line is, at the end of the day, hometitalock.com protects you from this.

You can make sure your title is safe if you use the promo code Blaze.

If you do that, they're going to send you a complete scan of your title.

So this is important because if you don't get that, you don't know what's going on or what's happened in the past.

And you might think, well, it's in the past.

I don't have to worry about that.

Well, this stuff comes back and bites people all the time.

They're living in the house.

They think they have ownership of the house, and then this stuff bites them anyway.

So you get the 30-lock, 30 days of triple-lock protection free at home, titlelock.com as well.

So you get free protection, the title scan.

Do it.

Hometitallock.com.

Code is Blaze.

The New York Post has a new opinion piece out.

The withdrawal of Robert F.

Kennedy Jr.

from the presidential race and his endorsement of former President Donald Trump is yet another extraordinary moment in an election that has been anything but predictable.

Only a year ago, it would have been unthinkable that a sitting president would effectively be forced off a ticket and replaced by a candidate who did not secure a single vote for president.

By the way, this is written by a Democrat.

Now the nephew of John F.

Kennedy, the son of Robert F.

Kennedy, has not just withdrawn from the Democratic Party, but endorsed the Republican nominee.

Amidst all the claimed joy of the Democratic National Convention, there is a sobering reality that is being ignored by the ecstatic press and pundits.

It's this.

This is how Democrats make Republicans.

There's an old expression that a conservative is just a liberal that has been mugged.

Kennedy has not become a Republican, but rather joined the roughly half of Americans Americans now identifying as independents.

While this country is solidly under the hold of a duopoly of power in the two main parties, only 25% of the country identify as Democrats and 25% as Republicans.

I come from a politically active liberal Democratic family in Chicago.

I spent much of my life working for liberals since I first came to Washington in the 1970s.

I even worked on the campaign for Ted Kennedy.

But the party has changed.

Where they once defended free speech, Democrats have rallied behind censorship and blacklisting of those with opposing views.

They've sought to block dozens of Republicans from ballots, including former President Trump.

To make matters worse, they've done so in the supposed name of democracy.

These actions were raised by Kennedy in his powerful and poignant withdrawal speech.

He detailed how the Democratic Party moved to stop him from running against President Biden in the primary, including efforts to block him from

ballots.

It was an iconic moment.

After harassing candidates like RFK and Minnesota Representative Dean Phillips, the Democratic leadership then simply installed their choice at the convention in an unprecedented bait and switch.

There could have been a substantive primary that

would expose the diminished mental state of Biden and allowed for a Democratic choice on the best nominee.

But instead, the Democrats prevented such choices from being made and selected a leader with all the transparency and deliberation of

a party of Congress in China.

Kennedy said the Democratic Party has shoved him and voters into the arms of Donald Trump.

He said, I began this journey as a Democrat, the party my father, my uncle.

I pledged allegiance, but I end

as an independent.

They have replaced common sense, honestly, with joy, I guess.

It's not going to work for them.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment

and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

We have kind of a sketchy interview happening or not happening.

RFK Jr.

is supposed to be calling in and he's

in a part of the country where he doesn't have real good cell service so they're pulling the car over and they're going to try to make the call.

We'll see if that happens in just a couple of seconds.

So stand by for that.

Plus, so much more on today's program that you just don't want to miss.

But first, let me tell you about our sponsor.

It's Reagan.

The movie, Reagan, is coming out.

Do you remember what it was like voting for Ronald Reagan?

Do you remember how good you felt about that decision?

Also, and this is a wild thought, wouldn't it be amazing if you could vote for him again?

Because, I mean, I would if we could.

The movie Reagan is coming out, and you can vote for him again.

It's about to hit theaters,

and you could vote for the Gipper at the box office.

I have seen this movie.

I've seen a rough cut of this movie, very rough, and it's not a good movie.

I think it's an amazing movie.

Dennis Quaid,

when I went, I thought to myself, I don't know if he's going to be able to pull this off.

Dennis Quaid is Reagan, really?

He is such a fan of Reagan, he almost didn't take the role because he thought, I'm not going to be able to nail it.

He nails Reagan.

It is amazing.

The look, the sound, the jokes, everything.

And Nancy Reagan by

Penelope Ann Miller is a great Nancy Reagan, and it captures what things were like and who that man was and his relationship with his wife.

It's really a time tunnel.

And you'll

may not learn a lot.

I mean, you will if you haven't studied Reagan, but your kids will.

Your family will.

Maybe your neighbors will.

Just a different kind of president.

See Reagan at ReaganMovie.com.

Go to ReaganMovie.com.

Get your tickets now.

See Reagan in the theaters.

It opens up this week.

Get your tickets for ReaganMovie.com.

All right.

Robert F.

Kennedy Jr.

joins the program now from

someplace.

Where are you, Robert?

I'm in Maine.

I'm up north of Portland, Maine.

I'm actually driving up to see Tucker

and

North Woods.

Yeah, okay, yeah, it's way out there.

So,

Robert,

I don't know if you saw my ex ex-response to you this weekend.

I doubt you did, but I

did.

I did.

It was beautifully written, Blan, and I was so happy to see that.

And I was so happy about

the sympathies and the vision that you had of people coming together in our country and having to understand

that people who disagree with you on issues are not your enemies.

They can still be your brothers and sisters.

I wanted to ask you,

because as I said in that, you know, you don't risk your life for things you don't believe in.

And you've had Secret Service pulled from you now by this administration, which I think is reprehensible.

How

uncomfortable are you with that decision?

You know, I'm okay.

I'm going to do what I'm going to do.

My life is in God's hands.

I'm okay with, you know, I'm going to do what I'm going to do, whether I have that or not.

I think

the fact that

they

would not give me secret service protection for so long

is troubling for our country because it's part of the weaponization of the agencies, the politicization of the agencies.

When my father

became Attorney General in 1961, early 1961, his first week in office, he called all of the division chiefs, the branch chiefs, the Department of Justice together, and he said, the one thing that we're never going to do is ask if somebody, if a defendant, potential defendant is Republican or Democrat.

The country needs to know that justice is blind.

that our institutions are not partisan.

And that's what makes America really great is that government is, you know, these institutions are supposed to be purged of political rights.

And I only want

to say:

The reason why I ask you about the Secret Service is you didn't just leave the party and run against

Joe Biden or Kamala Harris.

Now you've taken the real extremist position

to

endorse Donald Trump.

What pushed you into that move?

What scares you about the Kamala Harris victory that would move you to endorse Donald Trump?

Yeah, I mean, our polling from the beginning was saying that we were hurting Donald Trump much more than we hurt the Democrats.

So our polling consistently showed that about 57% to 60% of our voters would vote for Trump if I left.

And so it was odd that President Trump and the Republican Party never really attacked me.

And, you know,

it was not trying to keep me off the ballots.

They weren't deploying, you know, private investigators to dig up every piece of dirt about me, publicize it, which is what the Democrats had

this entire

organization that

was designed to destroy me, to character assassinate me, and to keep me off the the ballot.

But I actually, it was ironic because I actually hurt the Trump organization.

I hurt the Republican Party much more.

When it became clear to me that I was not going to be allowed on the debating stage,

and the mainstream media had successfully stonewalled me.

So, you know, I gave two live interviews on the major networks in 16 months.

Ross Borough had 34 interviews in 10 months.

I only had two live interviews on ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC,

and CNN.

And so I was being stonewalled there.

I was not going to be allowed on the debating stage.

And that really was my path to victory.

I could not talk to most Americans.

So it became clear to me

that we did not have a clear path to the White House.

And that if I stayed in the race, that the likelihood was that my presence in the race would get the

Vice President Harris elected.

Vice President Harris, for me, is a, and if you look at her

speech during the Democratic Convention, you know, it was a deep state speech.

She had, she was preceded weirdly by CIA officials who were speaking at the elect the Democratic election and military officials.

And it was a neocon speech

that was about more wars and more wars and more wars.

And that is the only policy she's really defined herself as.

And I think we're so close to World War III right now.

We're so close to nuclear exchange with the Russians.

And then the Trump administration,

President Trump reached out to me immediately after his shooting.

And we began talking.

We had a series of meetings by telephone and in person in Minneapolis and in Ma-a-Lago

and talked about the things that surprised me that we had in common, that he wants to end the Ukraine war immediately.

He wants to protect children's health.

He wants to end the censorship.

And those are the three principal reasons that I got in the race.

And he asked me, you know, not only to join this election, but to help him in his administration to make sure they're able to accomplish some of those goals.

And to sort of do a unity party where

we would be able to criticize each other on the issues on which we disagree,

but continue to work for greater good on the issues that really unite Americans and that aren't good for us.

That's the way it should be.

That's the way it should be.

So I talked to Don Jr., and he told me that he wanted you to pick a three-letter agency that you could blow up, that you could blow up.

Those were his words.

Which three-letter agency would you be most inclined to say,

President Trump, please, I'd like

this agency?

Yeah, I mean, you know,

we haven't really discussed that.

And, you know, there's a number of agencies.

I mean, I've talked about reforming many of the agencies

from the CIA to HHS, et cetera.

But

we're focused on the kind of the larger theme of the administration, which is public health, restoring America's health, make America healthy again.

And we've got to,

that our country will be unified

when we learn to love our children more than we hate each other.

And we're letting our children down now.

As you know, Glenn, 60% of them now have chronic disease.

77% of American kids cannot get in the military because of health reasons.

And, you know, this is our national security emergency.

It's a moral crisis for our nation.

And we are mass policing generation.

I think your time has come on a lot of this.

I think Americans...

are looking at the processed food and

a lot of stuff that the pharmaceutical companies are doing.

And, you know, the right never looked at that stuff.

Ah, big farm, it's a fine.

That's changed dramatically since COVID.

And I think people, I mean, I see this happening with conservatives where they're becoming the

They're becoming the people that used to be on the

Democrat side, a little granola.

And, you know, look, I want to get away from you know, processed foods.

Yeah, you know, it's really funny.

The time that I really

noticed this change is when Tucker Carlson

did a whole show on endocrine disruptors.

Endocrine disruptors are a class of chemicals that interfere with fertility and sexual development.

And they're like PCBs and atrazine,

PFOAs, which are flame retardants, which are now ubiquitous in the environment.

Even at all,

for 30 years, I've been trying to get Republicans to pay attention to this.

I've been suing those companies, and only the Democrats would talk about it.

And when Dr.

Carlson did that, the Democrats rained holy hell down on him and said, oh,

he's blaming

chemicals for turning people gay, which of course he wasn't doing.

But they completely ignored the issue and they turned it into a tribal issue.

And so now the Democrats are on the other side of that.

They're applauding the chemicals in our food.

They're applauding

the dominance of pharmaceutical and food

food processing companies of the agencies that are supposed to regulate them.

And it's been such a turnaround that, you know, the Republicans are now the party of the clean environment, the anti-toxic

toxic party,

and they're the party that is protecting children's health rather than corporate profit-taking and the mercantile interests of these companies that are poisoning the entire nation.

You know,

I'm wondering if you moving over to endorse Donald Trump is going to

make regular Democrats, not the crazy Democrats and the ones, many of them in the administration, but the average Democrat that loves their country and wants to get along, et cetera, et cetera.

I wonder if this is going to be the beginning of a movement and

a recognizing of

how corrupt and how anti-democratic they are.

I mean, what they're doing to Jill Stein and Cornell West

has nothing to do with the word democracy.

The people claiming to save democracy are doing everything they can to be,

you know, almost Putin in the election.

Yeah, I mean, you know, the Democratic Party, demos in Greek, means people.

And so it means the party that trusts the people.

And the Democratic Party

no longer trusts the American people.

And that's why they, you know, their big worry is about misinformation and disinformation.

Well, you know,

that's not the government's job.

The government's job is to trust the people

and give them all the information they need, but not start censoring information.

And the idea that they now have to censor information

is an indicator that they do not trust the people.

And they don't trust their own candidate.

They're not letting her talk.

Everything is about this ironclad control.

They didn't trust the people to vote for their candidates, so they had to get me off the ballot using the judicial system, and, you know, and

Donald Trump off the ballot using the judicial system.

And

it's all about

ironclad control of the outcomes and no longer having any trust in the people of our country.

And it's,

you know,

there have been a series of political alignments,

realignments throughout American history, about four or five big realignments, and one of those is happening right now.

It's really interesting to be living through it and

have kind of a front row seat in it.

Yeah.

I know this would only be your opinion.

It's a little unfair for me to ask, but

I've often thought that your uncle would not be welcome in this party today,

that

his views would be i think right-wing extremist uh to this party today

do you think your brother and your

sorry your father and your uncle would be welcome in the democratic party today

i don't think so i mean both of them i you know the kind of central for us

of their um

uh of their policy interests was was keeping the country out of war.

My uncle was asked by one of his best friends, Ben Bradley, who ran the Washington Post,

what do you want on your gravestone?

What do you want as your epitet?

And he said,

my uncle immediately said he kept the peace.

He said the primary job of the president of the United States was to keep the country out of war.

And he never sent a combat troop abroad during his thousand days in office.

My father ran against the Vietnam War

and was killed during that election.

So those are issues that both of them died for.

And the Democratic Party has now become the Neocon Party.

It's become the party of war, the party, and we're spending twice

in real dollars.

We're spending twice on military.

We're at the height of the Cold War.

And that money is not being spent for national defense.

It's being spent

for international domination.

And it's not a good policy and it's not working

well robert i appreciate you pulling off to the side of the road and i know you've you got to get back on the road so thank you for talking to us and and uh thank you for your courage um

i i think your speech on friday which cnn broke away from almost immediately uh i thought it was very powerful very powerful thank you thank you very much

good to talk

yep uh let me talk to you about leer capital um

you know

no matter who gets into office, we have a real problem because of our deficit.

We have a real problem because we don't have the credibility we had with the dollar around the world.

And you have BRICS now coming together.

trying to stop it.

You also have the pressure from China.

I don't know if you've seen what China is doing lately, but they are preparing themselves, I think, for war.

Truly, truly terrifying.

They are cutting us off on essential items.

This will not bode well for the United States.

Please, because of the terrible mismanagement of our economy,

we are facing the loss of the world's reserve currency.

So, would you please call today, Lear Capital, and find out if gold or silver is right for you?

It's Lear Capital.

They have thousands of five-star reviews.

They have $3 billion

in

trusted purchases.

So please go to Lear Capital.

All you have to do is call them now at 800-957-GOLD, 800-957-GOLD.

Do that today, 800-957-GOLD.

10 seconds, station ID.

Oh, I thought that was fascinating.

I thought that

RFK coming on and talking about his uncle and his father not being welcomed and the fact that he is recognizing that the Democrats, and I think the Republicans, the old Republicans, are the same on war.

I mean, I used to be a guy who's like, you know, let's go to war.

We got to stop them.

No, no, we really don't need to bring democracy anyplace else.

People have to earn that themselves.

And you and I both, Stu, have

really changed in the War Department, wouldn't you agree?

I think so, yeah.

You know, and certainly the parties have been seemingly switching on that topic.

I mean, I think what you've said before is maybe the biggest part of that interview where he, you know, he's been accused of abandoning what his family believed.

And I think he sees it the exact opposite way with a lot of evidence.

A lot of evidence.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And he compiled some of it.

All right.

We want to talk about freedom of speech.

There was the arrest of the CEO of Telegram.

This is a free speech flashpoint.

This might be

a problem down the road.

And also Democrats threatening Elon Musk with the same treatment.

We'll give that to you in a minute.

Glenn Beck.

You know, I have a German shepherd, Uno, and he's probably going to be our last dog because they are just so heartbreaking.

You know, every

10 to 12 years, we lose a dog, and it's just so heartbreaking to lose them.

And we want Uno to live as long as possible.

He is slowing down so much now, but he's 13.

I think that's the oldest that we've had any German Shepherd.

And he doesn't have the pain in his hips, or maybe it's just starting.

I'm not sure.

But

I just love him.

I just love him.

And I want the best for him.

And that's why when we feed him, we put on the food, we sprinkle on rough greens, which is something that we

know.

We brought to the vet and said, is this good to put on his food?

And she read all the ingredients.

She's like, are you kidding me?

If you can get your dog to eat this, this is fantastic.

Well, he loves it, and most dogs do.

But they want to make sure your dog loves it just as much as Uno.

Well, yesterday's another step was taken towards totalitarianism that is a little frightening for anybody who's paying attention.

Telegram was founded in 2013 by a Russian entrepreneur.

His name is Pavel Durov.

It is now one of the world's largest communication tools.

It's a little like Signal to where you can communicate with each other with encryption.

And it is central to everyday life in places like Russia, Ukraine, India.

In fact, Russia has had a problem because Ukrainians are using that, I believe, for military.

And so it's, you know, keeping things, it's allowing them to communicate with each other.

But it wasn't Putin that arrested the

entrepreneur and the CEO of Telegram.

It was France.

Now,

I am,

I don't even know what to say.

When they said a few weeks ago, when that official said, I'll come after Elon Musk,

no matter where you are, we'll get you.

That was a real problem.

And then they said, well, that was just a guy who he went rogue.

That really wasn't from us.

I didn't believe it at the time, and I certainly don't believe it now.

So

they became,

they went after this guy.

He comes into France and they arrest him.

Okay, well, that's a

that's really kind of really not

helpful here.

So the the Russian embassy in Paris is demanding that the French government explain itself and you know, I guess they are

Duroff was detained by the National Anti-Fraud Office over the alleged facilitation of various crimes including terrorism, narcotics, trafficking, and fraud.

On his platform, he allowed an incalculable number of offenses and crimes to be committed for which he did nothing.

So,

wait, so he's an accomplice to all of those things?

Is that what you're saying, France?

Now,

this has,

you know, disturbed a lot of people.

The head of Rumble said, I'm a little late to this, but for good reason, I've just safely departed from Europe.

France has threatened Rumble, and now they've crossed a red line by arresting Telegram's CEO, reportedly for not censoring speech.

Rumble will not stand for this behavior.

Well, Elon Musk is also very concerned.

Elon Musk

tweeted out yesterday, it is vital to the support of free speech that you forward ex-posts to people you know, especially in censorship-heavy countries.

So he's saying they're going to be hidden.

If you see a tweet, you've got to send it yourself.

This is what I've been talking to you about, the Blaze.

We are going to be censored, and we already have been censored so much and suppressed so much um you know we're having again

last year was a great year for us this year

we're breaking all kinds of of records better than when we were at fox

bigger uh impact than when we were at fox it's really quite astonishing especially when you look at our facebook numbers

we're losing people on facebook we can't We can't get any traction on Facebook.

Why is that, do you suppose?

Because they're silencing the vote.

They're silencing the voice during the vote.

That's exactly what's happening.

And it's only going to get worse.

Alexander Vinman, do you remember him, Stu?

What is he best known for?

He was the guy who was calling out Trump, right?

Was he right?

He wasn't the whistleblower, was I?

He was.

He was.

He was the guy who said, you know, I was listening in to that perfect phone call with Ukraine, and

he said, you know, I want you to root out all that corruption and look into Joe Biden.

And under oath, he said, well, he didn't actually say that, but,

you know, it was inferred.

Oh, okay.

By whom?

You?

So this guy is, I think, just a really bad guy.

He came out

and said, while Duroff holds French citizenship, he's being arrested for violating French law.

This has broader implications for social media, including Twitter.

There's a growing intolerance for platform disinformation and malign influence.

And there's a growing appetite for accountability.

Musk should be afraid.

That's a threat.

That's a threat.

There's a growing intolerance for platforming disinformation.

Really?

Not with the American people.

With the elite ruling class, yes, there is.

A growing appetite for accountability.

So, what?

We're going to put people in jail?

Huh.

And

why is Elon Musk the target here?

Why is that?

Why are you going after him and not Zuckerberg, who we found out from CBS News in 60 Minutes this weekend

that,

you know,

New Mexico, the AG there, again, is accusing Meta of failing to address child

exploitation.

I mean,

really,

really bad things are happening on Instagram and Facebook.

And Zuckerberg is already, I mean, they know how to fix this, but he doesn't want to hurt the advertising revenue.

And so your kids are being served up horrible, horrible things, horrible things.

Yeah, go ahead.

Let's play the sound on this.

Facebook and Instagram.

New Mexico's Attorney General is accusing the social media giant and its CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, of enabling child sex abuse and trafficking on its sites.

Civious News senior business and technology correspondent Jolene Kent reports on the undercover investigation that used AI.

It was shocking, quite frankly, to see the explosion of sexual interest in these kids almost immediately.

New Mexico Attorney General Raul Torres says his investigation into Meta found that Facebook and Instagram's algorithms created a marketplace for the sexual exploitation of children.

The civil lawsuit alleges Meta enabled adults to find, message, and groom minors, soliciting them to sell pictures or participate in pornographic videos.

Law enforcement set up an undercover operation using test accounts like this one showing AI-generated photos of a fictional 13-year-old girl from Albuquerque.

The complaint says followers flooded the account with unsolicited messages, filled with pictures and videos of genitalia, which she received at least three to four times per week.

You know, we are sitting here and they're talking about mis and disinformation while our children are being abused in schools,

by Facebook, Instagram.

They're concerned about misinformation.

That is the biggest problem we have is misinformation.

So they'll go after Elon Musk.

Why not go after,

why not go after Sky News?

Listen to this report, CUD 13.

Listen to this report

about,

well, a mostly peaceful riot.

Listen to this.

Last hour, they've given us an update that they've made 38 arrests and recovered four knives.

And they said a man believed to be in his 20s has been stabbed.

His injuries are not life-threatening.

But overall, it's been a really peaceful and enjoyable day.

It ends up that there were four people stabbed.

Okay.

36 arrests, like three people in the hospital.

But other than that, it's been just a mostly peaceful event.

That's like saying, you know,

yes,

the bomb was dropped in Hiroshima, and all these people died and left, you know, their shadows burned on the sidewalks.

But other than that, it was a beautiful day.

It was really a beautiful day.

Some of the temperatures were all bright.

Yeah.

Temperatures were, you know, in the 70s, if you exclude that 5,000-degree time period,

it really bumps up the average, which is unfortunate.

I mean,

it's incredible, Just incredible.

And we're starting to see more and more

people

now we're seeing it in Europe, but we're also seeing it here where people are realizing their rights are going away.

I don't know if you saw this surfer that was arrested in New Jersey.

He was crossing a beach to get to the ocean because he was going to surf.

But you have to have a beach badge to be able to be on the beach.

So he's got his surfboard and he's walking towards the ocean and he's stopped by a cop.

Listen to this.

Cut no.

You're not free to leave.

Am I being achieved?

You are.

And you'll be taking all this stuff.

You'd be arrested, I promise you.

I promise you.

Is I'm surfing?

Yeah.

Just come here.

No.

You can talk to Mary Hartson about this.

Talk to whoever you want about it.

Talk to me right now.

I'm not doing anything wrong.

I'm in the ocean.

Okay.

We're not a beach bridge, though.

So we need your information.

Because I'm not on the beach.

You're allowed to access the water to surf or to fish.

You are?

Yes.

And you don't need a beach badge for that.

You need a beach badge to get on this beach.

No,

this is a free beach.

This is a free beach.

I'm not going to argue with you.

You're going to provide your name information.

No.

I'll play.

I'll play after this transaction is done.

I'll email you the free access law and I'll also email you Title 40, which regulates the municipalities to charge free beach.

Okay.

Great.

Time for a time meeting.

We need your information.

Okay.

726 to 57.

So he's you're not free to go.

Help me out on this one, Stu.

He's being arrested

because he wouldn't provide his information.

You're illegal.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hey, it's 12.

It's going to be a little short.

Put your hands behind your back.

Stop.

Go f ⁇ ing!

Go away!

Put your hands behind your back.

No, put your hands behind your back.

What did I do wrong?

What did I do wrong?

It's ridiculous.

What did I do wrong?

This is ridiculous.

Put your money wrong.

Bro, put your buddies back.

This is in New Jersey.

This is in New Jersey.

In America, you don't say papers, please.

No, I don't have to give you any information.

No.

I'm going to arrest you unless you give me the information.

No.

You can be in the water without a beach pass.

You can fish and you can surf.

Yes, but you can't walk across the beach to get there.

Well, what am I going to do?

Take a helicopter over the beach?

I mean, this is not America.

It is not.

And that's incredibly disturbing.

And how many of these things have happened, right?

I mean, this was happening all throughout the COVID period where they were arresting people for going on the beaches.

Happening to people, 90-year-old people who are praying in front of an abortion clinic.

Yeah.

You know, getting, literally getting 10 years in prison.

It's insanity.

I know you've been covering

the people around the world who have been arrested for tweets.

Yes.

Arrested for just

emails they've sent with words they're not supposed to say.

Now, some of that stuff is not covered, I guess, by their Constitution.

Certainly is covered by ours.

And I think the freedom of movement is something that's pretty fundamental to

the United States of America.

It's pretty remarkable.

All right, back in just a minute.

Now, let's say you're in an emergency situation.

You have to protect yourself or your family from somebody dangerous.

You're driving down the street and a bunch of knotheads are in front of you.

And

I know that your instinct would be, I'm just going to drive through them.

But then you're in trouble and you, you know.

You don't want to pull a gun because

that's worse.

But how do you get out of that?

Well, you could open your window a crack and you can safeguard yourself and your family from these knotheads by firing tear gas at them.

That incapacitates a person for about 40 minutes.

So it would probably do the job and you'd be able to go home.

This is a Burna launcher and cops are starting to use this.

It's way beyond a taser and certainly better than Pepper Spray.

And they also have their high capacity Mission 4 rifle with maximum projectile speed.

It's back in stock and ready to ship now.

It's Burna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to the Glendeck program.

I don't think I've ever had my son Rafe on the show before, but he's up in Washington, D.C.

He was

with

the families of the fallen

military at

the Abbey Gate.

It's the anniversary of the Afghanistan withdrawal and the chaos there.

So he was with the families today

because I couldn't make it and

they just laid a wreath with Donald Trump.

We're going to probably check in with him and see what that felt like.

But

it's a remarkable

anniversary to Mark.

I mean, it's,

you know,

it was three years ago.

We got on the air and said, this has got to stop.

It's got to stop.

And

we were the ones that flew most of the people out.

The government worked against us.

And it was, it was our people at the Abbey Gate.

It was people that had been

removed from one of our flights before and they were in, you know flight for their life the taliban now knew who they were because the state department gave them all the information uh and they were up pressed up against that abbey gate and that was our planeload of moms and kids and families that were blown up and then biden doesn't even recognize the families it's really a It was a dark day, a really dark day, but Trump is at least

marking it with the laying of the wreath for those soldiers with their families today.

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

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

Well, we are at the third anniversary of the Afghan withdrawal and the loss of life and the Taliban taking all of our equipment and taking the country over.

Well worth it, huh, gang?

My son is in Washington, D.C.

He's representing the family.

He was with the president today laying a wreath at the Fallen Soldiers

Memorial.

and he's going to talk to us about that coming up in just a second.

Also, the Pentagon was

insisting that there was no chaos on the ground.

It's absolutely fine.

Well, unfortunately, some memos have been unearthed that show that the administration was doing everything they could to lie to the American people about what was really going on.

You think?

We'll start there in 60 seconds.

Stand by.

So I've been aware of the good that American financing is doing in people's lives for a long time now.

That's why I've been so happy to partner with them throughout the years.

And if you've been listening to me when I ran about them, but you haven't given them a call yet, you need to change that.

Call them today.

It won't take you long.

It'll take you max 10 minutes, but you'll be glad you did.

You have no idea the money they could be saving you every single month, and every little bit counts for over two decades?

American Financing has been helping people just like you to get where they need to be, and they could help you and your family as well.

So, give American Financing a call today.

You might be surprised at the options you didn't even know you had-from mortgage refis to other forms of debt consolidation, even accessing the high equity you have in your home to pay off the high interest debts.

American Financing could be saving you hundreds of dollars a month, maybe as much as a thousand.

Call American Financing at 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to AmericanFinancing.net.

NMLS 182334, NMLS ConsumerAccess.org.

APR for Rits in the Five starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers.

Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

So the Biden Pentagon was insisting that the withdrawal wasn't chaotic, but through Freedom of Information Act, we finally have the

emails that were going to Kirby,

and he was receiving briefings from diplomats and military officials

there on the ground that were frantic to, quote, stabilize the crisis.

particularly at the Kabul airport where the evacuations of Americans were taking place.

Remember

that it was,

it would, no, it went as planned.

There was no chaos.

Even as people were falling from the sky, as they were holding on to the tires of U.S.

airplanes, they were telling us there wasn't a problem.

We know that.

But there's just another example of them asking you, telling you to not believe your eyes.

Meanwhile, the Taliban on the third anniversary,

they are ruling afghanistan and they're really great uh they just banned women's voices and bare faces in public uh so

that's uh

that's good i guess huh i mean

banning their voices in public

holy cow

What did we fight for?

What did we go over for?

These were the bad guys, and we just handed it to them again.

If you remember the Abbey Gate,

the Abbey Gate

was protected by our boys.

And I know because our people were talking to them shortly before the gate was blown up,

and they all lost their lives.

They were trying to get somebody

to

allow the the people from that we had on a plane.

The State Department took off of our plane.

They then handed all of their documents to the Taliban at the airport.

We got those guys away from the Taliban as fast as we possibly could, told them, hide, come back tomorrow.

We'll tell you when.

They were at the gate.

They were the people that were blown up, and so were our Marines.

Let me give you one of the parents speaking about this during a Fox News interview.

Abbygate parents.

Has anyone reached out to you from the administration?

This is three years now and acknowledged, hey,

we messed this up.

Biden and Harris, no, of course they have not.

They want this swept under the rug.

They want us to go away.

Unfortunately for them, we're not going away.

We do know that, you know, Millie has reached out to us, but as far as the Biden administration, no, I haven't and I won't.

If you remember, let me remind you because the press won't,

Kamala Harris was deeply involved in the planning and execution of this.

Let me take you back to an interview with CNN in 2021.

You just made a really big decision.

Afghanistan.

Yes.

Were you the last person in the room?

Yes.

And you feel comfortable?

I do.

And I'm going to add to that.

This is a president

who has an extraordinary amount of courage.

Wow.

That's what you were told in 2021 by Kamala Harris.

She was the last person in the room, and she was comfortable with all of the decisions.

And Biden was very brave.

Well, my son, who I don't think has ever been on the air with me before,

is in Washington, D.C.

He's representing our family that couldn't be there to lay a wreath with the president.

Rafe, how are you?

Well, I got to say, this is the oddest one-on-one time I've ever had with you, but I'm good.

So you were,

where?

Was it at Arlington?

Yes, it is.

I'm currently still at Arlington, the memorial.

We were there at the tomb of the unknown soldier.

And I mean, it was

peaceful and beautiful, the ceremony

with the families just spending time with them.

Did you get a chance to talk to them?

I did.

I went up and I was able to just express my

gratitude to their lost and loved ones who sacrificed and unfortunately lost their lives in service of freedom and true freedom and wanting to share that with not just other Americans and in defense of this country, but with the rest of the world who

and I just was touched to hear to talk to them today.

Well,

I'm glad you were there and had a chance to

tell them that our family supports them.

And

I think we're going to see them.

Are they not?

Are they coming down to Dallas?

Are they coming to

Utah?

I think we're going to be doing an interview with all of them.

I don't know if you've heard any of that.

I believe they're coming out to Utah for that interview.

That's all I've heard about it, though.

Okay.

Well, thank you, Rafe.

What'd you learn today?

I've learned that

good people,

they tend to go really unnoticed.

Walking through the

cemetery here and up to the tomb and watching the ceremony, just the

deeds of every everyday people

who risk so much just for

stuff that we take for granted every day.

And

it really,

I mean, it really puts things into perspective what we what we have here

and

not just with our country, but with our family.

I mean, how many the people

in listening to them and just

I mean, there were tears, yes, but there was also some happy moments and remembrance of

family.

All right, buddy.

Have a safe travel back.

God bless you.

I love you.

Okay, bye-bye.

I want to spend just a minute to thank you for what you did all those years ago, three years ago.

We just had a board meeting with Mercury One,

and

we are hoping

to be out of Afghanistan by the end of this year.

I believe we are the only

NGO, if you will, that is still in Afghanistan.

But there are still people there that we have made promises to, and we won't leave until they leave.

But

we are still on the ground in Afghanistan, and that is all thanks to you.

I can't imagine what it is like for our operatives to be in that country and in and out of that country covertly.

But I thank them, and I thank you for making it possible.

Also, this week, I'm going to be up in Washington, D.C.

My son's actually going back with me to Washington.

We're going to be at the Moms for Liberty Summit, and

I'm one of the keynotes.

It's me and

Tulsi Gabbard and the president.

He's going to be speaking.

It's the annual summit for Moms for Liberty, and that is happening this Friday.

And then Saturday is the March for Children.

And I would love to see you there.

I'd love to have you in attendance.

We're marching for children to

the altar of liberty, if you will,

the

Jefferson Memorial.

And it's kind of a hard memorial to get to.

It's not the easiest one, but it is one of the most profound ones.

religious freedom.

He was freedom of speech.

He was the guy who wrote the Declaration of Independence.

And it is time that we

stop this independence movement where the

state is saying, you're independent of your parents,

and you could come on over here and we'll be mom and dad for you.

No,

no.

Somebody's got to stand for our kids in school.

Somebody's got to stand for our kids in the hospital.

Somebody's got to stand for our kids when it comes to

pedophilia,

drag queen shows.

Somebody's got to stand for our children.

So March for Children, it is in Washington, D.C.

at the Jefferson Memorial on Saturday.

And we invite you to go.

All you have to do is go to moms for Liberty, momsforliberty.org, and find out all of the information.

And I'll see you in Washington, D.C.

this weekend.

All right.

Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour.

It's international

support for

Israel with Jews and Christians.

This is something that I think is so profoundly good.

You know, we cannot,

we can't ask for God's help if we're not doing everything we can

to live by his rules.

And we have to be people of merit.

And,

you know, he's very clear.

Those who bless Israel will be blessed.

Those who don't, you know, some trouble coming our way.

The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on the forefront of helping the Jewish nation.

to be able to just survive what the world does.

We're partnering with them today, and it's life-saving donations that you could make.

You'll help provide emergency food as well as critical security needs, things like flak jackets, firefighting equipment, armored vehicles, bomb shelters.

And this is for the civilians.

It's not for the military.

Please help the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

They're asking 500 of my listeners to join the fellowship and me by donating $150 to meet these urgent security needs.

And thanks to a generous IFCJ supporter,

your gift is going to be matched so it'll double the impact call to make your gift right now 888-488 IFCJ 888-488 IFCJ

So

I know I believe Boeing when they say, no, no, no,

everything is fine.

I believe Boeing, their new Starliner, is the future.

I believe NASA, when they said, no, they're just doing some extra.

They decided to stay a little longer.

Really?

It had nothing to do with, you know,

Boeing almost killing all of the people on board of their new Starliner.

No, no, uh-uh.

It has nothing to do with that.

And they've decided now to stay until March.

This was an eight-day eight-day mission, and now they're staying till March.

Why?

Well,

I mean, they just love it up there in the first place.

The food is really delicious, I hear.

But

that and SpaceX, that damn Elon Musk, can't get his dragon capsule up there to bring them home until March.

Isn't it just like Elon Musk's stew to screw this up?

To make those poor Boeing astronauts stay up there until March?

That bastard.

Anything

to further his own interests.

I'll tell you that.

There he goes again.

There he goes again.

It's amazing.

Imagine how hard it must be for the government to admit they have to rely on Elon Musk, even in this situation.

Not to mention how damaging it is to Boeing.

I mean, you've mentioned this before, but it's like this is an American institution that has crumbled to the ground in front of our eyes.

It is, it's,

I remember, I remember when they launched the

new spacecraft, the Starliner, and I thought, boy, there better not be a Challenger thing happen with this thing or they're done.

You said that.

And what happens?

They get stuck in space.

It's unreliable.

They're not sure that it won't burn up on re-entry.

Yeah, and you could see, look, you can understand from NASA's perspective.

Obviously, if they allow them to come back down on this thing and it, and there's a problem, they're going to look really, really bad.

So I can understand them trying to

do everything they can to go with a more reliable partner.

But, you know, the fact that Boeing, this is Boeing.

This is like a Kleenex type of brand in this country, right?

Like it is American aviation.

That is what Boeing stands for.

And apparently no longer.

That is just incredible.

And the way Boeing, have you noticed Boeing has just kind of dropped out of the news?

Well, except for this.

Yeah, except for this.

But I mean, but I haven't heard anybody saying, well, there goes Boeing.

I haven't heard that.

It's been,

it's not like when they were in trouble because, you know, doors were falling off their airplanes.

And this is a pretty big one.

You launched people into space and and you can't bring them home.

That's the former Soviet Union kind of stuff.

That's what Trump means by make America great again.

I don't know.

Let's have our, you know, our

beloved American companies not go down the crap hole for DEI.

What do you say?

What do you say?

I mean, maybe it's just me.

Do you buy any of their pushback on this that basically, like this was, it was advertised as a test flight?

They said that.

Look, flying through space is difficult.

There's no doubt about it.

It's the first time they've ever

put a capsule up there with people on it.

Like,

and like, they didn't blow up, right?

They had a couple of thrusters that went out that you know, they and a little helium leak.

Well, I remember, I remember when the government, which screws up everything, I remember the government when they put John Glenn up in that first space capsule.

I remember when he couldn't come back.

Oh, no, wait.

The government did it.

But Boeing can't?

Oh, my God.

But I mean, Elon Musk obviously had a ton of efforts blow up on the way, you know, like, I mean, this is not an easy thing to do.

They failed a bunch of times, too.

This is their first manned spaceflight.

This is, I mean, again, I'm just...

parroting their PR department here.

I'm not necessarily making this argument myself, but I mean, there is, it is obviously a really hard thing to do.

Very few people have been able to achieve it.

And it's not likely it did blow up.

They think, I mean, Boeing straight out believes there's no problem here, that they should be able to come back in this thing.

NASA is saying NASA is being overprotective.

Oh, are they?

Or is it maybe the astronauts going, I'm not getting into that damn thing?

By the way,

speaking of the government ruining everything, Ford has admitted now that the strategy of embracing hybrids over fully electric cars will now cost the company as much as $1.5 billion in additional expenses.

The Ford EV division is on pace to lose as much as

$5.5 billion

this year.

Oh.

Well, I'm, you know, this is great.

I am so happy with this

green new deal and DEI, man.

It's working out well, isn't it?

glenn beck gosh

all right sometimes the answer to your problem that you're dealing with uh is staring you right in the face either don't notice it or you've been ignoring it all along if you're one of those people who lived with frequent or even constant pain you might have gotten to that point where you just kind of accept how life is it's never going to get any better i know i was there but i'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be that way the answer may be right in front of you right now.

It was for me.

It was called Relief Factor.

I listened to the commercials every day and I was like, yeah, I'm not going to try that.

I'm sure it doesn't work for me.

Why?

That was my argument my wife made.

Why wouldn't you just try it?

I don't know because it's not going to work.

Well, how do you know if you don't try it?

70% of the people who try it go on to order more every month.

Relief Factor.

It's 100% drug-free daily supplement that helps your body fight that pain.

And developed by doctors, it uses a unique formula of natural ingredients to address the inflammation in your body, which is where the pain starts.

Go to relieffactor.com right now, relieffactor.com, 800 for relief.

Glenn's new book, bestseller, Chasing Embers, is out now.

You can get it at Glennbeck.com or wherever you get your books.

Welcome to the Glen Beck program.

This is a trivia question that only the deepest of fans and maybe one or two people on my staff could ever answer.

Who is the program director for the Glen Beck program?

If you're ever in, you know, some sort of, you know, trivial pursuit with us, the answer would be Dom Theodore.

And Dom is on the phone with us right now.

He's also a Michigan resident, and he has been and his county have been fighting this giant EV battery plant

with

a company that has ties to the CCP.

In fact, I think it's not, that's not even fair to say it has ties.

It is the CCP, is it not?

It's subsidized by the CCP, and they just declared that in a FARA filing just a few weeks ago, officially.

Really?

So they

admitted it after lying all this time.

All right.

So we've talked about this before in the past.

And the reason why I'm talking to you today is you've got a couple of things that are good news.

But also, J.D.

Vance is doing a rally at the farm where you guys first had the rally, right?

To say, save this farm.

from China.

The farm is right across the street from the proposed site.

and this has been sort of ground zero in the battle.

It's the Majestic Pharisians Horse Farm, and we do indeed have Senator Vance coming in tomorrow at a big rally there, and we want to invite everyone to attend.

And you know, Glenn, how this got started,

it was really Goshen being caught in another lie that drove this.

Because just a few weeks ago, President Trump was speaking in Grand Rapids and made some remarks about returning jobs to America and bringing jobs back from China.

Goshen, in their arrogance, puts out a press release claiming that somehow President Trump supported Goshen.

Well, this is where President Trump's mean tweets come in handy, because just a couple of weeks later,

on Truth Social this past week, he of course addressed that and said, no, I don't support this.

This is bad for Michigan.

It's going to put our little community here in Michigan under the thumb of the CCP in Beijing.

And so, you know, thankfully, President Trump came and cleared that up really quick.

And then, on top of it, that helped us secure this rally tomorrow with J.D.

Vance.

So we're excited to have him here.

And we want to make sure that

the place is packed.

We really want to show Goshen that, you know, how much Michigan doesn't want them here.

And so this is at the Majestic for Regions Horse Farm.

The address is 2175019 Mile in Big Rapids.

If you want more information, we have posted the link, and you can also register.

It's not required, but we like people to register for headcount.

And that can be found on

our

website, ProtectMacosta, M-E-C-O-S-T-A,

dot org.

So if any of the listeners want to join us tomorrow, doors open at 10.30, and Senator Vance will be speaking around 1.30.

But we'd love everyone to, we want a big showing tomorrow, Glenn, to really, really bring home the message that the CCP is not welcome here.

Let me just use the world's most expensive paging system to say, Ricky, Ricky, will you just tweet that out for me?

The address and all of the information.

All right.

So

that's just so she can hear me down the hall.

Anyway,

so do you think you're winning on this?

Well, I can tell you this.

We had some really good news in the last few months.

I think the last time we spoke, you and I, about this, was when we were going into the elections, the recall elections.

And I'll have you know, we won every one of the recalls in the last cycle.

And we picked, you know, there were two seats that were ineligible for recall in the last election.

Well, in the August primaries, we actually picked up another seat in Green Charter Township.

So we have a super majority there.

And we ran candidates, no-gotion candidates, against all of the county commissioners.

And I'm proud to say that we have now a majority.

of the Macau County Commission as well.

In many cases,

most of these elections, the primary is the general because they're all Republicans.

That's the irony of this.

They're all so-called Republicans.

You know, the other thing I want to mention, Glenn, we talk about this often.

You speak of this all the time.

God

stepped in.

When you look at the number of people, the talent that have come together in this cause,

It's amazing.

And the fact, you know, that I happen to live here and I work for you, you know, I mean, this this has brought us so much access to so many things and that's God

you know my friend Ormond Hook who you met a while ago he's helped us

you know fight this battle he's been one of the leaders as well and you know he said he likes to say it like this they chose to mess with the wrong rednecks

God you know has brought together an amazing collection of talent here to fight this battle and you know you it's just an awesome thing to see when you see it in action.

And you, you know, you've always said that the solution is going to be divine intervention.

Well, we've seen it in this case.

There's no question.

His fingerprints are all over this.

And it's awesome to see.

Tom, it's always great to talk to you.

Thank you so much.

That's tomorrow

in Maca County, Michigan.

It is to stop the CCP from coming into this town.

And literally, in their

bylaws,

they will have classes to recruit people into the Communist Party.

I mean,

it's really a remarkable thing that

these commissioners thought that they could get by their own town.

But this is what it really looks like.

when you take control of your country again.

You just start with your commissioners and your city council and you flip that.

You start with your school board and you flip it.

That's how real change is going to happen.

It's going to happen from the bottom up, never the top down.

Dom, thanks.

God bless you.

So

Stu, I read a story today

and

I just thought it was important to

share.

Tiffany Santos, she's 27 years old uh and she's now going to the gun range to make sure that she can protect herself um and she's i don't know do you know tiffany santos she's an influencer i do not yeah

yeah well she's taking up shooting lessons to protect herself against men who are really unable to resist her undeniable beauty.

She said, yeah, she said in an an interview,

being too beautiful brings a lot of risks.

Being too pretty shouldn't be a curse, but unfortunately, it is.

And I read that this morning and I thought, boy, I can relate.

And

I'm right there with you.

Wait, what?

What?

You can relate

to what?

Yeah, no,

being too good-looking, Stu, is just a curse.

It really is.

It really is.

I've lived with it my whole life.

And,

you know, that's why I carry a gun.

It's why Tiffany carries a gun.

Can you imagine saying that about yourself?

Yeah.

You know, I have to carry a gun because I'm too beautiful.

It is.

It's just a curse.

Legitimately like, don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

It is really that in real life.

It's literally that in real life.

It's just exactly that in real life.

Yeah.

It's just a curse that I bear.

You know, that and and my humility.

Everybody recognizes me for my beauty and my humility.

And it's just really tough on me.

All right.

The previous content identified as as a rant.

You're welcome, or we're sorry.

The Glenn Beck program

will be right back.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

I just want to remind you that China is cutting off our military from key mineral.

We can't do it for ourselves because, well, the red tape, you know, the environmentalists, all of that.

So we can't get this mineral that we need to make critical

military weapons.

And they're just cutting us off.

But I'm sure that's nothing.

I'm sure that's no big deal.

By the way, did you see in Kansas

that

a court has just said that illegal machine guns, not so illegal.

They said that ban on machine guns is unconstitutional.

There was a woman who was charged with possessing a machine gun, and the judge said, no, uh-uh.

So she's home.

Wow.

I think it's blatantly unconstitutional.

I think it's the entire time it's been unconstitutional.

There was a case about three or four years ago in Texas where they tried to do the same thing, and it did not wind up working out.

I mean, it just seems like they've just drawn this line of, well, we don't really want those guns, so therefore they're unconstitutional.

It's constitutional to prevent them.

That's not how it works.

I don't think it works.

It started with the gangsters in Chicago, you know,

the St.

Valentine's Day massacre in Al Capone.

You know, they had machine guns, and everybody's like, oh, my gosh.

And Hoover, one of the great constitutional minds of the last century, century,

you know, he got everybody together to ban them

just to fight crime.

And it kind of stuck.

Kind of stuck.

Yeah, there's this weird thing that wound up being a positive ruling generally for the Second Amendment, which was, you know, you're able to

maintain a firearm for personal defense in private ownership, which happened, what, was that, 2008, 2009?

But in there was this weird,

I'll never understand how it actually works, but it's this sort of common use idea that if it's a gun is in common use, then it's okay,

which doesn't make any sense because obviously every new gun, for example, is not in common use yet.

So you automatically could theoretically be banned.

There's so many holes in the, and it's so circuitous in the way they come around trying to justify why it's okay to ban machine guns and not other weapons.

And

can you imagine how the left's head will explode if this stands?

Yeah.

Their heads will explode.

Yeah,

by the way, another part of this is it seems, you know, I've seen multiple

examples of this, you know, where they test these weapons and what they find is that people are far more accurate with guns that aren't machine guns.

So people trying, you know, it's much harder to hit individual targets and you wind up just wasting a bunch of bullets if you're trying to hit them.

Now, again, like,

I understand the arguments against them.

I understand how politically harming it would be to a party arguing for this.

It would not be easy.

Yeah, I know.

It would be no.

Luckily, we are not in the position to try to get to need to get elected so we can just actually stick by the Constitution.

Right.

I'm sorry.

That's what the Constitution says.

I mean, it's pretty clear.

The Second Amendment is clear that you can't just make these sort of determinations.

And we keep trying to find this weird middle ground where we're actually for the Second Amendment, but we're not going to allow machine guns.

It doesn't make any sense.

It doesn't make any sense.

No.

But,

you know, from the other side,

are we responsible enough?

Because this is where, you know, this whole system, yeah, this whole system breaks down if you're not a moral

group of people.

You know, capitalism will give you drugs and pornography and everything bad if that's what you as a people want.

The invisible hand of the market will come and choke you to death if that's what you want.

And it does.

And freedoms to have guns, that's a huge responsibility.

And luckily, there are enough people that own, I mean, there are 300 million plus weapons

in our country that are legal.

you know, and you're not seeing everybody go and taking those and using them.

It's the criminals that are using them.

And the good news is, I guess this is good news, looks like knife deaths are on the rise in places like New York.

So it's not the guns.

The migrants can't get their hands on guns.

They can only do knives.

So

they're just

killing people with knives.

I will say it's breaking news to me if that's true that migrants are not able to get guns because they seem to be able to get plenty of them and bring them across the border with them.

But I will say, if you remember the words of

scholar Al Sharpton, who once said that you,

if you, well, what will happen if people start killing people with knives?

He said, then we'll ban the knives.

That was his.

Amen.

Get ready to cut that steak with a spoon because that's on the other side.

We are going to zoom.

Well, not a spoon.

It'll be more of a spork.

Oh, okay.

Because you can gouge people's eyes out with a spoon.

So.

uh

by the way and our thoughts are with anthony fauci who's just gone home from the hospital where he had west nile virus uh he's gonna make a full recovery and i'm actually sincerely happy to hear that because i want him at tip-top health while we try him and throw him in prison

maybe that's just me No?

Okay, good.

It's definitely not just you.

I'm going to say there's a lot of support.

There's a lot of support in this country for that particular initiative.

We will see you tomorrow.

God bless.
