Dancing with the Stars premieres live.

Tuesday, 8:7 Central on ABC and Disney Plus.

Next day on Hulu.

Well, today's podcast, we talk a lot about

Trump's jury going in to

ponder what he might be guilty of.

Good time to start doing that, I think, now at the very end.

Like, why consider, why know what

the rules of the trial are at the beginning?

That's stupid.

Yeah, it's really,

the...

The instruction the judge gave to the

jury, at first it was like, you know, you ought to obey the law and you can't presume that he's guilty.

And even if you don't like him, you can't let that influence.

And I thought, well, that's really good.

And then he kind of changed the law.

That if you find him guilty on anything,

and you're the only one that finds him guilty on that, and four other people find him guilty on something else, and then the rest of them find him guilty on a third entirely different charge.

Ah, he got all 12.

They should have just said, Look, guys, you need to find him guilty.

I don't care how you come to that conclusion, but that needs to be conclusion.

They should have just said that.

I've never heard of that.

I've never.

It's insane.

You consider them charge by charge.

Apparently, this is how the rule is written, they are saying, but like, it's an insane law, then.

It's an insane law.

You have to be able to know what crimes.

It doesn't make any sense.

But

this is American justice, apparently.

Well, we try to make sense of it in today's podcast.

Here it is.

First, let me tell you about our sponsor.

It is Pre-Born.

You know, people say that conservatives, you know, you care about the baby and then, you know, you're not going to adopt the baby.

You're not going to.

Yes, I've adopted a baby.

And adoption is a really difficult thing to do.

And I would love to have easier or more kids to adopt.

But they also say we don't care about the mom.

This is why I'm a part of Pre-Born.

I really love this group.

What they do is first they offer the moms who are thinking about an abortion a free ultrasound.

It costs $28, a free ultrasound.

And when the mom hears the heartbeat and sees the baby, she's twice as likely to say, no, I want to carry the baby.

But then there are so many of these women that they feel trapped.

Nobody in their life supports that decision.

They may not be able to support it.

This is again where pre-born comes in and helps mom.

60% of the women who have abortions regret it afterwards.

They felt trapped.

Pre-born helps mom take care of the baby and provides all the post-natal care and even clothing and books and everything else for up to two years after birth.

Trying to save two humans, not one.

They're both patients.

Pre-born, would you like to help out?

Just donate anything you can.

$28

buys an ultrasound.

You can do that for, you know, on a monthly basis if you'd like.

Just hit pound 250, say the keyword baby, pound250 keyword baby, or go to preborn.com/slashbeck.

Preborn.com/slash back, sponsored by pre-born.

You're listening to

the best best of the Blenbeck program.

All right, so the Trump hush money case is about to go to the jury.

And I'm very, very excited.

Well, not really, because it's in New York.

But

everyone is saying, I mean everyone, well, maybe not MSNBC, but everyone sane is saying,

there's no case here.

I can't believe how weak this case is.

What happened?

What happened?

Well, what happened was a perversion of law.

That's what happened.

It was, we got to get him some way or another.

And it just might work.

But I will tell you, what's shocking to me is

everyone is saying how weak this is.

I mean, have you honestly seen a good attorney on CNN or Fox or anywhere?

New York Times even is saying, wow,

that was a bomb.

Yeah, what I see is a lot of like,

they'll do posts about how the defense

messed something up.

Right?

Like, it'll be like, he was very confusing in his closing statements

all over the board.

Yeah.

Oh, okay.

Like, I don't know if that's true.

Obviously, I wasn't there.

I don't, it's hard for me to believe that's true.

It seemed like it was well organized.

He even had a top 10 list in the middle of the closing statement.

But, okay, like that could be something.

But it's not an argument of like, well, he definitely should go to prison for this.

Like, they don't, they don't.

They're all saying

there's no case.

There's no case here.

However, what's interesting is when most people will agree there was no case there,

only 63% of those who are betting on the outcome, so there's money involved here.

Only 63% are saying,

yeah,

I think there's a chance that

he's going to go to jail or he's going to be deemed guilty.

Yeah, it's the, will he be guilty in the hush money case before the election is the question?

63% chance, which is down, by the way.

Yeah.

It was 83%

before this thing.

Like back in 80%.

Still, after all you hear, that's how much, to me, that's how much the betting, the people who are putting money behind it, just realize, yeah, but it's New York City.

Right, right.

Because my follow-up question is: would you buy or sell at 63%?

In other words, if you buy at 63% and you are I would say those are good odds.

You say it's about right.

I think that's about right.

Right.

Because I think there's a real chance that he gets convicted here.

I honestly think it's above 50-50 and 60 to 70% seems about right to me.

I think,

and the only reason why I say that is because the jury pool and the instruction.

Let's see what the instructions from the judge are.

Right.

Okay.

Because that could change everything again.

And every time he's had a chance in this case, he's put his tip.

He's on the playing field.

He's done it.

Yeah.

So let's see.

But, you know, I do have hope.

There's this in any other place other than Washington, D.C., in any other place, I really truly believe that he would get a fair trial and it would be a very short jury stay.

I think they'd all go in and go,

right?

What was this?

This is nuts.

But you're not going to get that.

We know we're not going to get that, I think.

Right.

it would be shocking to me if they all, all 12 of them went into that jury room with an open and honest mind about Donald Trump.

Yeah, no.

And said, no, the guy's this.

I'll be surprised if five of them did.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You know, and so, but, like,

if five of them did, there's a good chance he's going to get a hung jury, which is basically to me the best possible outcome, right?

I got it.

Me too.

If you talk about it, what's your chance of a full acquittal?

Zero.

You think zero percent?

Zero.

Only Only because of this.

Think of living in New York City and you're on the jury and everybody knows you're on the jury, at least all your friends.

Yep.

And you let Hitler go?

There's no way.

There's no way.

There's no way.

However, I might be on the jury and go, you know, Bob brings up a good point.

You know, he doesn't want to budge.

You know, I'm going to vote the other way, but Bob, you got to stick to your principles.

You know what I mean?

Right.

That way you can blame it on Bob and not me.

Right.

I don't think you can get one person on this jury, like a single person hung jury, unless it's like a dedicated like Trump fan.

Right.

Like if you, and it's possible one of them's on there.

Remember,

disagree.

I think with a single person, I think you could get three or four people who are maybe left leaning, but just say this is ridiculous.

We have to honor the actual country and the justice system.

I think that's a possibility if you have three or four people.

One single person, I don't think I believe it.

Because they're, because of what you just said,

what you just pointed out about how,

you know, the pressure on these people in their communities, if they're liberal and they were the only holdout, I think would be too much.

I think if you have three or four of them that are banding together, look, you know, the bottom line is it was going to be a hung jury whether I agree.

Okay, then what are the odds of them all getting together and going, this is ridiculous, but

we're going to make up Phil and we're going to blame it on Phil.

I don't think that's how that works.

You don't get an imaginary friend clause on your jury pool.

I like the idea.

I mean, I'd like to suggest it.

Phil, it's this guy, Phil.

No, I never see him when they talk about the jurors.

I never see this guy, Phil.

12 years.

No, Phil.

Phil.

God damn judge.

It's Trump.

Trump did it.

Statistically, though, Glenn, if

you know, Donald Trump lost in Manhattan,

I think it was something like

87 to 13 or something.

Oh, I thought that was, I didn't think it was that bad.

In Manhattan.

So in New York City, it might have been 70.

In the state, it was something like 70, 30.

Yeah.

He lost or 65, 35 or something.

But if you look at just Manhattan, I think it was 13 or 14% of the vote he won.

But if you were to close your eyes and take everybody that lived in Manhattan and pick out 12 people, statistically, Statistically, one or two of them would have voted for Trump.

If you were looking at it,

statistically.

Now, add on to that that Donald Trump and his attorneys had something to say about who walked into that,

you know, who stayed on the judge, though.

So did the judge.

So did the opposing attorney.

But if they were competent, you'd think they'd at least have one person on this jury that actually voted for Donald Trump.

Not alone, not someone someone who was just like honest and maybe was, you know, a Democrat, but would consider an honest case.

I'm just saying actually voted for Donald Trump.

Statistically, there's a decent chance one person on this jury actually did it.

And of course, like you saw people beforehand saying, you know, on social media, if I were in that, if I were in New York and I was a Trump fan, I would hide it every way I could and I would make sure he got off.

Who knows?

That could easily be happening.

I'm sure it's happening on the other side.

I'm sure there are people who went into that jury pool pool and said, I hate Hitler.

I'm putting Donald Trump away no matter what.

He's Adolph Hitler in the front.

I'm telling you that.

I'm going to act as honest and normal as possible until I get that, you know, get into that jury room, and then I'm going to unleash on the guy.

So, you know, I feel like that's definitely happening.

Oh, yeah.

So it could happen on the other side, too.

I mean, there is a chance of a hung jury.

It could.

Yeah.

Well, when is the last time, when's the last time we wanted anything?

I mean, the Supreme Court's happened a lot.

It has, it has, and I believe this would be overturned in a heartbeat.

I do think it would be overturned.

Overturned in a heartbeat.

When it got to different districts, I do think you'd get people who actually cared about the law.

I think you'd get another judge.

Yep.

I mean, even Democratic judges, I think, would throw this out.

I think it's that bad.

But Bragg has stated, you know, he staked his entire reputation on this.

And he's not going to just let it go.

The judge obviously has

a lot of the same proclivities.

You put it that way.

Yes.

So

do you think, again, you're at 63%.

You were right there where this is that he will actually get convicted.

And I ask you this, Glenn.

But

sure, you understand.

34 charges.

Only,

only the reason it's in New York.

Right.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

In a normal jury, you'd say no chance he gets convicted on this.

Yeah.

I agree with you.

If.

This is O.J.

Simpson in reverse.

Yes.

This is a white guy who is just so hated

by the people in the community that they're going to convict him no matter what.

Where O.J.

Simpson in his community was loved so much and it became, you know, the black man always gets it.

This time.

We're going to set him free.

And I think they went into the jury room thinking, I don't care.

And I don't care.

This This is not your theory here.

Jurors that were there actually have said this publicly.

Correct.

And I think...

They said, we need to make this right for history.

Correct.

And I think that's going to happen here.

I think you're right.

I think you're right.

But do you think he'll get all when it comes to 34 charges against him?

Do you think there's...

35.

Would you like to go over the 34 charges?

To review.

This is one of my favorite things.

Yes, quickly.

So there is one incident

where he's charged basically with this payment to Michael Cohen to cover up the Stormy Daniels thing.

The first step they did is they divided that into 12 because he made 12 monthly payments.

So now it's 12 felonies.

Not one felony.

It's 12 felonies.

Now, we all know that's all just one quote-unquote felony.

If you want to consider it a felony, it's actually one.

But they divided it into 12 because there were 12 monthly payments.

Then they said, well, he had the 12 checks that went out.

That's 12.

Well, how do we get it higher?

Well, they recorded it in their ledger, their internal ledger, 12 times.

That's 24.

So that's 24 felonies.

And Michael Cohen submitted invoices, I think, for 10 of the 12 months.

So

when Michael Cohen submitted an invoice, that was a crime, a felony by Donald Trump.

That is legitimately how they get to 34.

It is the most insane nonsense.

Look, if you want to charge the guy with a crime, there's one crime here.

Right.

He He had one arrangement with Cohen that if you want to say it's illegal,

you could theoretically at least attempt one crime.

They tried 34.

Again, that is all based on Michael Cohen, who is completely non-credible.

And the other piece of evidence they have is the National Inquirer, who admitted, the guy from the National Enquirer admitted, and we all know

they bought off stories all the time.

Right.

All the time.

The guy, Donald Trump had a morals clause.

Okay.

We all have, if you're in my business,

well, maybe not some people.

In fact, maybe not most people in Hollywood.

Anyway, you have a moral turpitude clause, which means if I'm caught with a hooker,

they don't have to pay.

No, I'm sorry.

You get fired.

Yeah, it's the opposite.

Yeah, I get fired.

They don't, and they don't have to pay me any of my contract.

Okay.

Donald Trump had that.

So

he could have been fired by NBC.

That's, at that time, that's just as big of a motivation as, I don't want my wife to find out,

and I would hate for this to come out right before the election.

How are you, who are you to say which one was the motivation?

And I believe the way the rules are written for campaign finance, it has to be exclusive.

Yes.

It has to be the only way you would do do this was to inform the elections.

But again,

Trump would, Trump would, I mean,

the judge would not allow the defense to call the former head of the FEC to say, no, that's not how this law works.

There's no crime here.

There's so many different layers.

I can't believe there's not a juror who's sitting there thinking, wait a minute.

So for this to be an actual case, right, to have, to get past the statute of limitations they already missed, this has to be tied to another crime.

They're going through this with the judge instructions today.

And they're talking about how the election is there.

Doesn't one of these jurors say to themselves, well,

why didn't the federal government bring a case against him about election interference?

Why are we guessing about what this other crime is?

I'll tell you what will happen.

They will ask

the

plaintiff, or not the plaintiff, but the

judge.

Yeah, the bailiff to go get the judge and ask the judge.

And God only knows what the judge says.

Right.

The judge will probably say, you don't have to have a crime.

You just have to see, could it theoretically be a crime?

And I think that's the way the statute is written.

It doesn't necessarily have to, there has to be charges.

No, but still,

you could say, why didn't the prosecution, that's up to them?

And with

that.

If as a human being, wouldn't this influence your decision?

I'm not dealing with

anymore.

Wait,

I don't think really any of us really human beings.

My hope is that, you know what, like, look, as bad as our system is, as many problems as there are, it's still the best one out there.

Right.

We, I don't think that's the problem.

But remember, this is normal.

This is not normal.

And like.

What has been normal, Stu?

What has been normal?

No, but here's where it works.

The American justice system occasionally gets it wrong, but over time, it works itself out.

And so it will be on appeal.

And there's no way this thing stands in appeal.

Today is the day you have to make an important decision.

You keep your current cell phone plan.

you know, the one where you shell out big money every month to a big mobile corporation that donates money to leftist causes and puts us in the situation we're in right now, or

you could change to Patriot Mobile, which doesn't do any of that.

In fact, is fighting against these things and charges way less for the service and shares your values.

I mean, how easy is this?

This is easier than the jury has on the Trump trial.

Don't be like a Trump juror.

Make the right decision, the easy decision.

It's patriotmobile.com/slash Beck or call 972 Patriot.

Join me, make the switch today, patriotmobile.com/slash Beck.

That's patriotmobile.com/slash Beck, or call 972-Patriot.

Now, back to the podcast.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening.

A man who I have tremendous respect for because of his overall body of work, he has more than 2.2 million books in print.

For half a century, he has worked and focused on human rights, genocide, organized hate, corporate criminality and corruption, governmental misconduct, academic fraud, all of it.

Been nominated 14 times for a Pulitzer Prize, and I don't believe has ever won one, which is an amazing,

just an amazing thing because I've read his books and they are important.

Edwin Black, welcome to the program, sir.

How are you?

I'm fine and thank you very much for having me, Glenn, and for all the work that you do.

Yeah, thank you.

So I want to talk to you a little bit about

the

organization of this takedown of Israel.

We had a fire now in

somebody set the embassy in Mexico on fire, the Israeli embassy.

They're threatening to do it here.

And at the same time, the International Criminal Court is going after Benjamin Netanyahu.

And

I believe we didn't try to stop that at best.

Well, you're absolutely correct.

Not only did we not try to stop it, we orchestrated it.

So

there are two different courts which are confusing people and which have absolutely no jurisdiction in the false charge of genocide against Israel.

The first one is the International Court of Justice.

This is Traffic Court.

This court was established in the early twentieth century to solve border disputes, contractual breaches, tax levies, and other matters between countries.

It has no prosecutor, it has no enforcement arm,

and it has never considered all of the many genocides in the 20th century, not the rape of Nan, the rape of Nanking, the massacre of 80,000 Jews

by Ukrainians.

It did nothing against the Nazis.

And in fact, it took the, because there was no actual arm of investigation and prosecution for crimes against humanity, it was the United States military that established the IMT,

the

International Military Tribunal, also known as Nuremberg,

to try the perpetrators of the Third Reich.

And they established a separate one for the Japanese.

So is this the ICC or the ICJ?

This is the ICJ, the International Court of Justice.

And which one is going after, or both of them going after Benjamin and Adam?

And both of them and neither have jurisdiction.

Basically, what South Africa did was they put up the false claim that everyone has agreed to not commit genocide and Israel breached its contractual duty.

When you look up genocide and the steps to genocide, I believe you're the guy who invented

wrote the original, what is it, seven or eight steps to genocide.

Are you not?

Well, what I I of course identified the six steps that IBM took to organize the Nazi genocide against the Jews, but the five qualifications of genocide require a deliberate act, which were, by the way, written on the campus of Duke University.

The five steps require a deliberate intention to destroy a people

and or to call for the destruction of people.

And that would include

not only Goebbels calling for the Jews to be destroyed, but Rashida Talib

calling for from the river to the sea,

Palestine will be free.

So the International Court of Justice is a show trial in a traffic court of international jurisprudence.

Israel is cooperating and it's stacked against them.

Now we go to the International

Criminal Court.

The International Criminal Court did not exist until

a couple of years ago.

It

established a Rome statute, which 124 countries have accepted, and the United States is not one of them, and Israel is not one of them.

And Palestine, a non-state,

a territory, a region, is also not one of them.

In fact, when you go to

the official list of the ICC of member states, Palestine is not one of them.

And

this organization is seeking not only to bring Israel down, but it's seeking to bring American servicemen down, especially those who served in Afghanistan.

And this is why the prior administration of the United States sanctioned the ICC.

Yeah, now you say that

we helped

orchestrate this, that Biden encouraged these warrants.

Yes, there has been a concern that basically Biden is not concerned about the Palestinian state.

His two-state solution is Minnesota and Michigan.

He's concerned about the 200,000 votes in Michigan, which is a swing state, which have vowed to

not

vote for Biden, even if it means electing Trump as a punishment and a warning to the Democratic Party, which they've just announced.

It's all very public, in which they will complete their takeover of the Democratic Party and engage in the dispossession of the Jews in America and the dispossession of America from sea to shining sea.

And so everything that is being said by the administration now is walking between these two third rails, the

pro-Jewish

majority in the United States, which is upward of 70%,

and the need to curry favor with the Michigan votes.

So

have you ever looked into

the

psychological game or reason that

when persecution is happening like it is now, I would think if I were a Jew, I'd be freaking out right now.

And I would be thinking, where could I go?

You know, you're leaving America.

I don't know where else you would go.

But so many Jews will just continue to go down the same path with the same leaders that are clearly again, are siding with the people who do want genocide against all the Jews.

Why does that happen?

It's quite a correct observation by you.

In fact, I remember the last time that I was on your show,

it was one of the last times.

It was last year.

And there were people in your audience who were from Oklahoma offering me a basement to hide it.

Right after your show, I had a meeting with Jewish leaders in Dallas.

And these are Texans.

And they were asking me what country will take us in.

I'm in touch with Jewish leadership all over the world.

on a minute-to-minute basis.

And I can tell you this is on everyone's mind.

It's on my show tomorrow, the Edwin Black Show.

We will be discussing not only the Farhood,

which was established by International Farhood Day, but that the Farhood,

this pogrom, is coming not to the Middle East next, but to the United States next.

Explain what the Farhood is.

Explain what the Farhood is.

This is a great book of yours.

Explain in two minutes, if you can, what the Farhood is.

Well,

the Farhood Farhood was the Arab Nazi pogrom of June 1st, June 2nd, that was the beginning of the end of the 2700-year dwelling of the Jews in Iraq.

During this two-day monstrosity,

this is how I've been describing it for years, so it may sound eerily familiar.

Parents were killed in front of their children, children were killed in front of their parents, babies were beheaded, Women were raped en masse.

And I know what that sounds like.

October 7th.

That sounds not like 1941.

That sounds like October 7th, 2023.

So, do you think, though, that Jews in America are waking up and saying, wait a minute, these the people who I've always thought were our friends are maybe not our friends?

They're waking up not en masse.

They're waking up on slow,

one by one.

I received a call from one of my supporters who's fervently and dramatically anti-Trump and pro-Biden several days ago when I was in Israel and visiting these massacre sites.

And this guy said,

I just realized that if the election goes the wrong way, Israel and the Jews are fit to finish.

And that is exactly what is in the game plan.

The State Department is stocked with leadership from Students

for Justice in Palestine, people who are avowed and public anti-Semites and anti-Israel activists.

And believe you me, if the wrong people get into power, By this time

next year, there will be an active program to destroy Israel within weeks by recognizing Hamas, arming Hamas,

supplying

a munitions train to Hamas,

sanctioning

Israel,

its leadership, and the Jews in America who support Israel, which are the overwhelming number of Jews.

I will tell you,

Edwin,

I pray that you're wrong.

You're usually not, but I pray that you're very wrong on that.

I need to be wrong.

I need to be wrong.

I know you do.

But I also want you to know, like, for instance, there's 12 million people in just this audience on radio alone.

And I believe that there are tons of good Americans that will not allow what happened before to happen again, at least in our own country.

But I pray for that and I pray that you're wrong.

Edwin, thank you for everything.

I know I tell you this every time, but I mean it so sincerely.

What you've done to open eyes about history,

there are very few people in my book that have done as much as you have, and I so appreciate it.

Thank you.

Thank you very much, Glenn.

You bet.

Edwin Black, IBM and the Holocaust, The Far Hood.

That's a book you should read

because that kind of explains an awful lot of what's happening now.

And you can find him at EdwinBlack.com.

EdwinBlack.com.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Yeah, so it's weird.

You know,

the news of the cost, that's not new.

In fact, I mean, they were...

They were said at the time it was going to cost $4 billion annually, but,

the Assembly just went ahead and Gavin Newsom just, but now

they're looking for ways to

delay it, which is weird.

They say that

the California budget deficit, not the debt, but the deficit

is somewhere around $45 billion.

And they think that

adding another $4 billion

is probably a little hasty right now.

When did they start making decisions like that?

Just now.

Just now.

Just now.

Right before the election.

Oh, yeah, right before the election.

By the way, they're also thinking, and I can't even imagine this.

This is crazy.

This is crazy.

They're also considering no longer providing in-home assistance

to illegal immigrants.

Considering it.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm.

And the

crazy part about this is if you're listening in California, all you heard in that headline was, Glenn Beck just said illegal immigrants.

Now, I don't know what in-home assistants are.

Are those typists?

Or is that just like help in the home

through Medi-Cal?

It's probably that.

But in California, it might be typist.

It might be, you know, you need an assistant.

Yes, Juan, welcome.

I'm glad you're here.

Could I help you with anything?

Do you need me to book you a restaurant?

More like concierge.

Yeah, concierge service.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

But they're saying now that the state is, for some reason, and they don't disclose what that reason is,

I don't even know.

They face doctor and care provider shortages.

Now, when I say that, Stu,

what from our many, many conversations over the years comes to mind when I say health care shortages.

Ah,

Ezekiel Emmanuel

and the complete live system.

What are you talking about?

Well,

sometime there may be in the future, Glenn, medical shortages.

And we need to know how to divvy out the limited resources we have.

And they shouldn't go to old people or young people.

They should go to a very limited slice.

Of like, let's say, 16 to 45.

Something in there.

Something where you're in your prime earnings.

Prime earnings.

Yes.

Sounds an awful lot like the German system from a long, long time ago that we shouldn't pay attention to.

But that's who is that that did that?

Ezekiel Emmanuel.

And who is he?

The brother of Rah Emmanuel and chief of staff for the president of the United States, Obama.

But Zeke wasn't connected to the White House at all.

Oh, no.

He was one of their main health policy advisors.

Oh, really?

So this is part of the Obamacare system, the complete live system.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I just want to know.

So California, that's all you have to do.

You just have to now, you want to cut it.

You don't stop providing Medi-Cal to all Californians.

You just use the complete live system designed by Obama health care advisor Ezeke Emmanuel, and you just stop providing health care for especially newborn babies.

They should die.

They should die immediately.

Of course, they should die before they are even born.

Yeah, at 10, we'll consider giving them something because they're starting to get in.

Now, if they're handicapped or something like that, I mean, they got to go.

But when they get into their prime working years, 16, 17, you know, they're on the cusp of that, and you start really giving a lot of care until about 40, 35, 40.

And if they're kind of broken down, you stop.

You know, over 60, screw those people.

You know, look this up:

Zeke Emmanuel's

complete lives system.

Look it up.

It's real.

And by the way, California,

just glad to remind you exactly how you can get your

doctor and care provider shortages fixed.

And of course, they didn't admit at the time this had anything to do with Obamacare.

Just like there's a massive controversy when a congressman yelled, you lie at Barack Obama during a speech

during the State of the Union.

Yeah, but that's because he was saying that no, no money, no health care would go to illegal aliens.

Right.

That wasn't a lie.

That wasn't a lie at all until it was in the platform of the next candidate for the Democratic Party and is now absolutely happening all over the country.

Okay, so now here's another story.

Um, apparently, apparently, our public education system

has been pushed into financial chaos.

No.

Yeah.

Pushed into it.

And here's what did it.

Inflation

and COVID stimulus.

What happened is the COVID stimulus that went to all these schools, remember, Biden said, we got to give all of this money to these schools because the teachers union supported me in the, or he said something like that.

And we got to get all this money to the schools.

And the schools were just like spending it like crazy.

Now they can't keep up with the programs that they put in.

I don't know what to do.

And

completely unrelated,

inflation also happened at exactly the same time they were spending those billions of dollars.

Who would have thunk it?

Who would have thunk it?

Now.

Here's another great story about schools because we love our schools.

I want to build even more expensive schools.

Forget about the curriculum.

Let's just get,

let's just get those teachers from Johns Hopkins or

what's that other progressive communist, Marxist

education.

Oh, Columbia University.

And let's get all of those teachers in palaces.

Okay.

Because the education will be so much better if we have Marxist teaching anti-American stuff.

And then they, if they're in a palace, they can also convert our children into atheists

and switching genders.

Wouldn't that be great?

And it would be happening in a really nice, expensive building.

But to pull this off, we need a superintendent.

And I mean a superintendent, quite honestly, like Paul Sally.

Okay.

He's the new Trier Township, or I'm sorry, he's the former new Trier Township High School District 203 superintendent.

And he's retiring.

He's retiring.

But he's worked a long time.

And his pension

is going to be, his pension is,

it's only $8 million.

It's only $8 million.

But he's a public servant, damn it.

What is wrong with you people?

He worked as a public servant there in the school where your kids were failing and they were transgendering everyone and teaching them how to hate America.

And how many kids, how many kids is he responsible to make sure they couldn't read nor write nor do any arithmetic?

You know, we probably should have been a little skeptical of the teachers saying it's the three Rs

because reading is the only one of the three that starts with an R.

But do our kids know that today?

Nope.

Nope.

Anyway, so the pension systems, they're saying now it might be out of whack just a little bit.

This is not the Chicago superintendent.

This is the new Trier Township High School District 30203 superintendent.

He's going to retire next month.

And

man,

$8 million.

But he deserves it.

He deserves it.

Look how beautiful the schools are.

Now, there's another story out in Axios today, and I find this one interesting.

This one is,

quote,

Underground Railroad to Public Education, Fight School Boundaries.

An Underground Railroad?

What?

Oh, my gosh.

Now, here's what's happening.

And you're not going to believe this.

You're not going to believe this, okay?

Axios just just stumbled onto this story, and I'm glad they did to expose it.

Some parents

feel trapped in sending their kids to certain schools because of where they live.

And those schools sometimes are sub-par.

Now, how dare you say that?

And they've...

they've developed now clandestine networks to circumvent what they view as, quote, unfair local laws to get their schools, to get their children into better schools.

My gosh, grab a lantern and a match.

It's an underground railroad.

Now,

Color Me Stupid,

which is actually, it used to be in the box of 64

Crayolas.

It was stupid, but color me stupid, but I don't think that's an underground railroad.

I think that's school choice.

I think that's what they're pushing for.

But they don't recognize that as school choice.

But they are saying this is a real, this is a real problem because in Ohio, a mom who was divorced and the children split time between mom and dad, they decided

dad's district was in a better school district.

So they registered the kids in the school with dad.

But when they found out, and mom was a teacher in the other district, when they found that out, they arrested mom, and she can't teach again, but they threw her in jail.

And

I think that's the crux of all of it.

And the parents who are trying to get their kids in a better school, Almost, I'm quoting, and this is going to come as another, well, probably not.

You're such a racist.

Almost all of these are black, Native American, or Latino.

And they're just trying to get to a better school.

And I understand that because if you're living in a black, Native American, or Latino, and I would, I would put the emphasis here on Native American.

Your school probably sucks.

Probably sucks.

Yeah.

But hey, don't don't worry.

They don't use both sides of the paper anymore.

That's kind of an old-timey thing, you know.

Hey, let's not waste paper.

Let's not waste it.

No, no, no.

We got enough.

We got enough.

And the school superintendent is making $8 million when he retires.

What more do you want,

Pocahontas

man?

Oh.

By the way, Texas yesterday,

they needed to pick up 13 votes in the Texas House to pass school choice.

Wait, wait, wait.

They needed to pick up 13 votes.

13 Republican votes.

That's incredible.

Because the Republicans wouldn't go for school choice.

Yep.

They were the ones blocking it.

Yeah.

As Corey D'Angelis points out.

They took out six incumbents who voted against school choice in March.

Shoot.

They knocked out three more of them tonight.

Oh.

Which means last night.

Excuse me, last night.

They picked up five more votes in open seat races.

So according to Corey D'Angelis, who is the guy on this as far as counting the votes, they now have enough votes to pass school choice in Texas.

Wow, in Texas?

I mean,

as we have said many, many times, how is it possible that Texas doesn't already have this?

But it was a bunch of Republicans blocking it.

Now it seems like we maybe are passing.

You know what's weird?

And politicians, you should hear this.

We know who you are,

and

we know what you care about, and that is the ballot box.

And we are sick of it.

We're really, really sick of it, at least in Texas.

We're sick of you Republicans that do nothing.

And

so

sucks to be you, huh?
