I mean, wait until we can get to AI to just do the show for us.

Like, post show for three hours saying conservative things, enter, and then we can go home.

That'll be a great day.

Day.

Anyway, anyway, we talk about the new list of the greatest and worst presidents of all time.

Yeah, I don't, I don't, that's not our list.

There's a couple of things on there that I think you might disagree.

We went through our list, but on tomorrow's podcast,

we want you to take a poll.

We'll give you all of the details.

We're going to take a poll of what your favorite and least favorite president, how do you rank all of them?

I don't think we agree with this latest poll from all of the people who are just way

too

smart.

We also talk about the real ramifications of what's happening now in New York.

Just today, two other companies said, we're not going to be doing business in New York.

We're leaving.

Because of this judgment, this thing could backfire

deeply on the progressives in New York City.

We also had Stephen Moore on talk about the economy.

He's hysterical.

And Carol Roth.

And today,

you get an extra podcast if you are a Blaze TV subscriber.

You'll get it later in your feed, one of these days here in the next couple of days, I'm sure.

But if you're a Blaze TV subscriber at 2.30 Eastern Time, live one-on-one with Tucker Carlson, the first interview he's done since he returned from Russia.

And I've got a lot of questions for him.

We go over some of those questions in today's podcast as well.

Brought to you by Jace Medical.

I've always said that I will give you the warning signs.

I'm going to give it to you as plainly as possible.

It is time to finish your preparation.

If you are somebody who really knows and has been paying attention, it's time for you to finish your preparation.

I cannot give you a stronger warning than that.

You need to get on the phone with Jace Medical today.

Antibiotics and medicine, I think, is going to be rationed, but we may even have problems with the medicine just getting over from China.

Here's the podcast.

You're listening to

the best of the Blenbeck program.

Presidential historian

said one of the main driving forces behind President Joe Biden's decision to run for re-election was his lovely wife.

Dr.

Jill.

He noted that both former presidents Harry Truman and Lyndon B.

Johnson decided to leave office because their wives were like, I've had enough of all of this.

If you look at Lyndon Johnson, it wasn't because of Vietnam.

It wasn't because of anything else.

He wasn't really healthy, high blood pressure and everything else.

And Ladybird was like, you're going back to Texas.

And that's why he didn't run for a second term.

The same.

It wasn't because he completely destroyed our future economic prospects by all of his programming.

No, no, he wasn't.

It wasn't because of the constant N-words.

That wasn't it.

No, I just want to make sure I understand with Lyndon Johnson why he didn't run.

Yeah, no, it wasn't that.

And with Truman, he could have run,

but

his wife, Bess, was like, we got to get out of here.

And what's amazing is the two of them got into their old car and drove back to independence.

Drove back themselves.

He did.

What a difference

there was.

And he had never been on the highway system before.

The highways were just starting.

And he was like, I got to try out some of these highways.

And so he did.

Look at the way our presidents live in luxury now for the rest of their lives.

So

the guy, the presidential historian said

that she

doesn't want to go because she has just...

started to teach in Virginia Community College.

And

that's her home.

And she likes likes it.

And she said she's been taking all of the slings and arrows of the last year's attacks.

And she's been taking it on the chin.

And she's put up with so much.

She's this historian actually said that

at the last minute, just when you get all the delegates, you're going to say, I'm going to open it up to a bunch of people.

No.

She wants, get this, she wants to stay.

She wants some sense of revenge.

Revenge on who?

And isn't revenge, aren't we,

isn't everybody saying to Donald Trump, he'll just be about revenge?

What the hell is going on here?

And this, I mean, to me, this shows elder abuse.

It shows they don't care.

None of them care about the husband, the father, the grandfather.

None of them care.

It's It's just about them.

It's crazy.

It's absolutely crazy.

And he's going to lose, which just makes me think,

Michelle Obama.

No, you're not taking my $1,000.

Yeah.

I mean, you mentioned Nate Silver's analysis of this, which is pretty thorough.

And he, again, is not like some Trump supporter.

He's a guy who wants the Democrats to run a good candidate.

He said, if you asked me a year ago, I would have told you Joe Joe Biden was a reasonably clear favorite in the event of a rematch against Donald Trump.

But Biden's situation has become considerably worse.

If he were 10 years younger, he still might be a 65, 35 favorite.

But in this campaign, he is substantially encumbered by his age.

Personally, I crossed the Rubicon in November, concluding that Biden should stand down if he wasn't able to run a normal re-election campaign, meaning like little things like the Super Bowl interview.

It's remarkable he didn't do that.

I know.

Remarkable.

Like it's just an incredible opportunity.

It would be easy.

It's not like he would probably be able to pick the person who interviewed him, right?

Like it would be

as easy as it can be, and he refused to do it in front of the largest audience in the world.

It's like the

Macy's Day Parade interview they always do with the president.

What are you going to have to eat today?

You know, it's that kind of stuff.

I mean, you'd expect it to be slightly tougher than that, but not much, not for the media, especially when they want him desperately to win, right?

Like if you're cheering on a particular candidate, you're likely to get a favorable interview.

And they still wouldn't go with it.

And Nate Silver at the end of this analysis, which is worth reading, but at the end, he just asks for the challenge.

Did you read the challenge part of this article at the end?

No.

He says, a simple challenge to the White House.

Could I or other critics and 75% of Americans be wrong about this age issue?

Sure, I'm wrong about a lot of things.

But if we're wrong about this, it ought to be easy to prove it.

Here's what I propose.

Over the course of the next several weeks, Biden should do four lengthy sit-down interviews with non-friendly sources.

Non-friendly doesn't mean hostile.

Non-partisan reporters with a track record of asking tough questions would work great.

A complete recording of the interviews should be made public.

The interviews ought to include a mix of different media.

For instance, Biden could pick these four.

One, a lengthy sit-down interview with the Washington Bureaus of the New York Times or Washington Post.

Like,

every, even like Donald Trump was doing those interviews with Maggie Haberman, right?

Yes.

Two, an interview with 60 minutes, making up for the interview Biden ought to have given to CBS during the Super Bowl.

Okay.

Three, an interview with some sort of center-right print or digital outlet.

This could be, say, the Wall Street Journal op-ed page or even a team of writers at the Dispatch.

Four, wildcard.

Take your pick.

Bonus points for Fox News, though I doubt Biden would do it.

Go on Ezra Klein's podcast.

Go on Rogan,

you know, etc.

Those are four

super basic things that a person running for president of the United States should be able to do without thinking about it, right?

Yes.

These are not big asks by Nate Silver.

These are things that just show this man has the competence level to handle basic questioning.

With the exception of Rogan.

Right, which would be a little bit would be out there.

But

that was Arsinio Hall.

I mean, that's what Clinton broke the barrier.

He said, I'm not just going to sit with the big news people.

I'm going to sit with people that people actually listen to, watch, or admire.

Right.

Okay.

So Clinton did that.

And I think pretty much every president has done that.

I mean, Donald Trump went on to the tonight show and had him mess up his hair.

Right.

And that was more of a, you know, a fun, like, and Rogan goes back and forth, right?

He has some serious stuff.

He has some funny stuff.

Or if you want to just go to someone independent, like a Barry Weiss or you know michael schellenberger or somebody who would just be independent right like ask some questions that maybe were out of the mainstream that he wasn't getting from everybody else like i think that those are basic things anyone running for president should be able to do those things without question i would do an interview a straight interview with him and i would only ask questions about his success or failure i wouldn't i wouldn't slant it i wouldn't play gotcha nothing tell me about binomics and why it's working And I would go down into the weeds.

Yeah.

And show why it's

why it's not working.

Let him answer for it.

And he can't, he wouldn't be able to go.

There's no way he could do 45 minutes with me.

There's no way.

Oh, God.

And me saying with both my arms tied behind my back, not trying to do gotcha or anything, he could not handle a 45-minute interview with me.

a recovering alcoholic DJ.

Come on.

You're right.

Come on.

He wouldn't even consider it.

No.

Remember, Barack Obama did one of those Super Bowl interviews with Bill O'Reilly.

Yeah, I know.

Like, this is not a foreign concept.

Everybody who runs for president is expected to be able to answer some tough questions.

This guy has done almost none of them.

Did you see the, and I think it's in this article,

where they talk about, here we go.

Biden has done fewer interviews than any recent president.

It's not close.

By this point in their presidencies, Barack Obama had given more than 400 interviews, and Trump had given more than 300.

Biden has given fewer than 100.

And a bunch of them are softball interviews on Conan O'Brien's podcast or Jay Shetty's Mindfulness podcast.

He's not even

doing

this job.

Is anyone noticing this?

The man is not even doing the job.

I love it.

I love it when Stu expresses

what I express about two hours earlier when I'm reading the news.

And that is.

We all do that now.

It's like,

it's incredible.

Like, I just can't believe we're in this situation where we have someone who, again, the number in this poll was.

75%.

We've seen it as high as 86%

are saying that he's too old to do this job.

We all look at this and understand what's happening.

And we're like, let's, it's like, hey, we're driving 85.

Is that a big stone wall in the middle of the highway?

Should we accelerate?

What should we do?

Should we get off this exit?

There's a McDonald's right here at the, at the, uh, the, the highway pass.

We could just go through, get a couple burgers, or we could just gun it at the stone wall that is just somehow in the middle of the highway.

You know what?

I, I think maybe we could get him to accept this.

Coffee in cars with comedians and the current president, but he has to drive to the coffee shop.

No, what are you going to kill somebody?

You can't put that man on the road.

Yeah, I mean, so we have a virtual Jerry in the car.

Right.

We don't want to kill Jerry Seidfeld.

No.

But no one would give this man the keys to their car.

If he came over to your house and he said, you know what, I'm driving home.

I'm just going to drive home.

In his car,

we would all say, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you're not.

No, no, you're not.

We'd act like he was drunk.

We would act the same way, say if he came over and had five or six cocktails in an hour.

We would act like we act with our grandparents.

Okay, that's what we would do.

We would act the same way we act with our grandparents when they hit that point.

No, grandpa, you can't drive.

And everybody in America, on all sides, this is not political, on all sides, we know that.

We know it.

But we're giving him not the keys to our car.

We're giving him the keys to the nuclear briefcase.

Oh, my God.

Okay.

And asking him to micromanage a war between Russia and Ukraine.

Like, that couldn't spiral out of control and get us involved.

But anyway, there's no way.

No, the only thing that could be worse is like, you know, something between, I don't know, Iran and Israel.

Or China and us.

I mean, look at what's happening.

Seriously.

The guy, we would never let him drive a car.

Never.

The only thing that saves fellow drivers is that his Corvette is so packed with boxes of documents, he can't get into it to drive it.

Here's what I would, here's what, here's all my interview would be.

I'm not going to ask him about any.

I'm not sure about

him in a driver-simulated car.

You know, those cars that look just like you're in it, and you can feel it moving.

You can feel it moving.

I'm going to have him do a couple of of laps on in that and let's see how competent he is okay if he can't drive a computer simulated car

and i would use a real car but as stu said he'd probably kill people

and the entire news media would unite to say well george washington couldn't drive a car either

okay more from the podcast here in just a second our economy is dominated um by businesses that cater to a mob.

That's it.

If your mobile service is with one of the big guys, chances are pretty good your money is going to the things that the mob believes in that you don't.

That's why I love Patriot Mobile.

For the past 10 years, they've offered nationwide coverage with access to all three of the major networks, equipping you with the same exact coverage that you've always had, but without sending your money to leftist causes.

If you're a fan of great prices and great cell phone service, plus you also like free speech, religious freedom, life, the Second Amendment, when you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're sending a message loud and clear.

You support these things, not woke causes like anti-white or anti-anything except anti-planned parenthood.

100% U.S.-based customer service team is going to make switching incredibly easy for you today, plus free activation if you use the offer code BECK.

So go to patriotmobile.com slash Beck, patriotmobile.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot.

972 Patriot, promo code Beck.

Now back to the podcast.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

Carol Roth, a former New York

Wall Street banker

who woke up and went, who am?

What am I?

Am I on the wrong side?

And she has done an awful lot of good.

She's the author now of You Will Own Nothing, former investment banker.

I have her on because I want to talk to her about BlackRock's new voting system.

But she has a couple of things I want to let you know.

First, she has a new newsletter out, CarolRoth.com/slash news.

Sign up for it, Carol Roth.com/slash news.

Carol, I wanted to start with you because you are a former New York investment banker.

What

is the fallout going to be on this Donald Trump

conviction and $355 million fine?

Never been done before.

Not even with the Gambino crime family.

They never did this.

Yeah, okay.

So I'm just going to correct San Francisco investment banker because I don't want to lump myself in with all of those New York investment bankers.

Like that's any better.

So this,

the implications of this are horrifying for everybody who is in business.

When you think about presenting your company in the best light, whether it is a startup firm, a venture capital firm, a private equity firm, real estate holdings, any publicly or privately held company that has adjusted EBITDA,

they are saying, here's what we think the business is, but we're going to put this in the best light.

And what this particular judgment has done, in my opinion, has said: you know, even if somebody hasn't gotten hurt, even if, you know, the bank that you've presented this to, or the investors said, hey, we made a ton of money, we're not a counterparty to this suit, that the state can come in and say, well, we don't think this is right.

We've done our own calculations.

We see that you have some, you know, numbers that you got wrong here.

And we're going to charge you with fraud civilly, not criminally, civilly, and then put in some insane judgment that is basically like sticking your finger in the air and seeing which way the wind blows because there is no actual damages.

The bank has said that they were not victimized, that they made a ton of fees.

And so, who really is the counterparty here?

They're saying that there was some sort of ill-gotten gain.

They made this up.

And this has an incredibly disturbing implication for any business.

If this is the standard, then basically I would say every business in the United States, somebody needs to be thrown in jail and assessed hundreds of millions of dollars because this happens throughout all of business.

I will tell you, if Elon Musk was still in California, I bet he'd be shaking in his boots.

Because if this can happen in New York, it could happen in California.

And they're already going after him with all kinds of stuff.

Even if you're on the right side currently, if your company ever falls against the state on anything, you're opening up yourself for the end.

I mean,

how much of an impact will this have on businesses being and locating themselves in New York?

Well, that's the interesting question because everybody thinks that it can't happen to them.

Oh, it's Donald Trump.

He's done, you know, all of these things that we've heard about in the media.

This can never happen to me.

And there is a lot of ego and a lot of hubris, particularly with the financial services and other companies that are based in New York City.

We have seen some level of exodus based on crime, taxes, and other decisions.

So, obviously, the ones who have been savvy have already gotten out of there or started to decouple from New York.

But I think that the When something like this happens, they see this big personality and they say, it can't happen to me.

But why not why can't it happen to you if you go against whatever the narrative is if you go against the state and you know you say something that they don't like this is um you know as we've talked about before sort of a soft form of social credit you are not aligned with what we want so we are going to find ways to pen penalize you financially

and it is absolutely terrifying all right so um let me talk to you here we we have about uh six minutes here to talk about about this.

Justin Haskins, who is my co-writer of my book,

we talk about ESG and all of this stuff all the time, go back and forth.

He's much,

if you think I'm a pessimist, he's even more of a pessimist.

But he wrote to me the other day and he's like, Glenn, this is great news.

The, you know, the U.S.

ESG bills and the European ESG collapse and now companies are getting out.

Even BlackRock says they're getting out of it.

And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa.

We're entering the time of an election.

And this is also what every progressive institution does.

They are exposed.

Oh, we're not going to do that with your gas stove.

And then they do it anyway in another form.

Are you, I mean, we should celebrate that we have them on the ropes, but we cannot let the pressure up.

We have to pursue them because they're trying to to make an escape.

Yeah, I think this is the absolute perfect analogy.

And I know, Justin, and we have some conversations offline as well about all of this stuff.

And I do think there are a lot of things to celebrate because of the work that you and Justin have done, Glenn.

Your audience has done in raising awareness, some of the state-level leadership.

We are seeing a lot of shifts happening.

You know, we saw JP Morgan, Pimco, State Street all extract themselves from the Climate 100 Plus pledge, which is basically financial institutions cracking down on companies and trying to push them into this ESG,

these directives.

And so we just saw that happen this week.

And part of that is because they are afraid of the legislation and being hit with lawsuits.

In fact, BlackRock, which shifted from the U.S.

being part of it to just Europe being part of it, within,

they cited lawsuits, potential lawsuits as one of the concerns.

So this is, you know, coming from the New York Times, coming from the mainstream media, they are scared, but it's not enough.

And, you know, that goes back to this new BlackRock voting initiative, proxy voting initiative, where they don't want to be the ones to take the blame and say, well, we're not pushing this.

You're voting for it.

And instead of going ahead and giving you the ultimate choice on how to vote, they're going to give you options.

But of their options, almost all of them have to do.

I know this is going to shock you, Glenn, with climate or climate impact or environment or social thing.

I know it's a social responsibility.

So I could have Soviet communism,

Chinese communism, or

North Korean or North Korean communism, but I can choose.

I can choose.

You get a pick.

You get a pick.

All right.

Wow, that's quite a choice.

So go ahead.

I was going to say, and it's the way they're doing it is obviously they've been paying attention to your program because they're trying to really manipulate you in one direction or another.

They have this one choice that's called the ISS Catholic Faith-Based Policy.

So you're going, okay, that's great.

That's going to be aligned potentially with my values and patriotic values.

But what they say is, quote, that it's aligned with social responsibility and, quote, the active ownership and investment philosophies of Glee, or I'm sorry, broadly consistent with the objectives of socially responsible shareholders, as well as the teachings of Catholicism and Christianity.

And then they talk about for social environmental impacts that, yeah, that they're going along with the social and environmental philosophies of Catholic-based teaching.

Yeah, I mean, they're really trying to make sure that you don't read this and say, oh, this is going to be aligned with my values, but they're just pushing this in a different way to manipulate you.

So now they can say that you're the one that voted for this.

Unbelievable.

So damn evil.

It is.

I'm looking at all of the things that are happening, like the farmers.

You know, that's kind of calmed down now over in Europe because the politicians said, you know what?

You're right.

You're right.

We're not going to push those things.

We're going to hold.

We're going to hold.

There's an election coming out this summer.

And after the election, we'll bring that back up.

But I think you're right.

And I think these farmers just might be dumb enough to think that they won, but they didn't win.

You cannot, this is like, you know, any good war strategy.

You cannot let them regroup, fall back and regroup someplace else.

You must pursue them at some point because they're going to keep doing it over and over.

They'll just pop up someplace else or under a different name or another new way to manipulate the reality.

And to, if you don't pursue them, you have to start all over again.

Yes.

Well, the farmers have obviously been very brave and they have been leading the way.

And

yeah, I think that they may have won the battle, but they haven't won the war.

There was an article that came out in the Financial Times this morning about here in the U.S.

about the amount of investment dollars that keeps increasing in terms of buying up farmland and that the average age of farmers here in the United States is 58.

I would imagine that there are are similar demographics and issues going on around the world.

So, you know, they may be placating and saying, okay, we're going to drop this, but we know through the fight against natural asset companies, you know, some of these other proposals that are coming to the table, and things that they keep moving around, that they're finding other ways to achieve their objectives.

I think the good news is that we are having an impact, whether it's the farmers, whether it's the listeners here using their voice.

But I know it seems exhausting, but you've got to devote some part of every week to advocacy because we're in a situation where you, like you said, you cannot let up.

They're on the ropes, but if you let them get that second win, they're going to come back and, you know, go back at you with some jabs and a right hook.

Carol Roth, thank you so much.

God bless.

We'll talk to you again soon.

Carol Roth, the author of You Will Own Nothing.

She also has her new newsletter out.

You can find it at CarolRoth.com slash news.

You're listening to the best of the Glendeck program.

All righty.

So

what's going to solve our problems here?

Well, let me give you this story.

Russian police investigate alleged LGBTQ propaganda at My Little Pony event.

Yeah.

Finally.

Yeah.

Police in Moscow were called to investigate an event dedicated to the cartoon series

My Little Pony.

Bronies?

Well, yeah.

These bronies?

The event, the Miamor Convention, was shut down by organizers early on Saturday after officers arrived at the venue.

Police were unable to find any evidence of LGBTQ plus propaganda at the event, which was considered an illegal activity in Russia.

The police received a complaint complaining that our event promoted non-traditional relationships and related symbols, adult contents for minors, and general horror and darkness, event organizers wrote on the Russian social media.

Two police checks did not uphold these complaints.

My Little Pony is a toy line and media franchise developed by the company Hasbro.

The Moscow event was dedicated to the cartoon series, which focuses on the power of friendship and targeted to an audience under the age of 10.

Although the convention catered to its many adult fans, the logo of the convention in the Russian capital was a pony with a mane styled in the colors of the Russian flag, not the rainbow.

My Little Pony has prompted anxiety in Russia as

the country's authorities cracked down on the local LGBTQ

community with Russian movie database changing the cartoon series rating to an adult only 18 plus

in December 2023.

In November 2023, a Russian court declared the global LGBTQ plus movement an extremist organization.

Since then, at least three people have been arrested and served time in prison for displaying rainbow-colored items.

Because my understanding of the Brony culture, and perhaps you can

jump into this a little bit more deeply than I can, but like it's been essentially adopted by some of the LGBTQQIA2 plus community.

Hey, stand in line.

Noah's first in that line.

But like My Little Pony itself is just a cartoon for little girls, basically.

Or so they'd have you think.

I mean, maybe they have embraced this.

They're like, hey, look, we're getting extra people buying our crap.

Like, let's debrace.

But generally speaking.

It's part of that LGBTQ propaganda, we must censor this show quickly.

I just feel like maybe

I don't again, if just because some other group is utilizing this material doesn't necessarily mean that's what the material is designed for.

Okay, so let me ask you:

is this

how you want to solve problems going forward?

As we look at,

well, here,

Can we go to

SOT 1?

I believe it is.

Yes, listen to this SOT 1.

Local.

We want to warn you that these videos are disturbing.

And store managers and employees tell us that this same man has been accused of doing the same thing at other antique shops in the area.

But employees here at the Antique Gallery say he didn't buy or steal anything, but they're hoping he'll be caught.

Cameras capture this man man in a kilt looking around an antique booth.

He grabs an item off a shelf.

He's then seen walking behind a birdcage.

He appears to put the item under his kilt before putting it back on a shelf.

Another camera shows a woman walking into a booth.

The man comes up to her, whispers in her ear, then leaves.

He appears to grab another item off a shelf and puts it under his kilt, once again, returning the item.

More cameras capture the man repeating the disturbing acts.

What did they do with those products?

They

threw them away mostly.

Golden holds the man doesn't come back.

Yeah, so my first of all, that wasn't a kilt.

That isn't a kilt.

That was a little schoolgirl dress.

Okay.

And he was inserting these items

into orifices under the skirt.

Okay.

Now,

what do we do about that?

Well, what's this caused by?

I think you just burned the store down.

If I'm the owner of that store, I'm just burning it to the ground after that.

I've got to tell you, it makes me not want to walk into any antique store again.

Or any other store.

Right.

People are weird.

Okay.

So

I believe that.

The news anchor there, KPRC, that's the NBC station in Houston, either either has no concept of

Scotland at all and doesn't have any idea that that's not a kilt.

Kilts look very, very specific.

That's a little schoolgirl dress.

Okay.

Is that what I mean?

I mean, when I think schoolgirl dress, I'm thinking like a plaid, like,

it was black and white plaid.

Okay.

And see, those aren't folds.

Those are little waves of the skirt.

Okay.

That's a skirt.

That is a skirt.

Yeah, I know, I wouldn't describe that as a kilt.

In Texas,

you know, a guy wearing a kilt kind of stands out.

Now, maybe in New York, definitely in Scotland, no.

No.

Okay.

But

a kilt is different than a skirt.

We are now embracing

guys and turning a blind eye to guys who are in skirts.

That's okay.

That's all right.

That's okay.

Why?

Because your sexual perversion is okay.

It's okay.

I want to dress like a little schoolgirl, and I'm a 45-year-old bald man.

Okay, come on in.

We've lost all shame

and we've lost all perspective on right and wrong.

Our whole society has been perverted.

Now, the reason why I bring this up here is because Vladimir Putin would use the government government and muscle to make sure none of that's going on.

I don't want stormtroopers in the streets.

Now, this guy, I would like him to be arrested if he is found.

The story ends with him, the store owner.

What do you hope happens to him?

I just hope he doesn't come back.

What?

No, I would like the guy to go to jail or at least pay some fine.

I don't know what law he's breaking by sticking things up his butt and putting them back on the shelf, but there's got to be some I'm sure there is.

Yes.

You're not going to be able to do it.

You know, someday, someday this society, if we remain free, someday there'll be an old law on the books that was put in around 2025, and it was, don't insert things into your butt and put it back on the shelf.

And people will look at that and go, those were crazy days.

Like, no spitting while tying your horse to the saloon.

It'll look like that.

It'll date us because this is when America lost her mind.

I don't want goon squads.

I don't want what's in Russia.

I've never wanted that.

But if you don't have

any right or wrong in your society, and your society, the major organs of it, the media, the news media, the film industry,

and your government

does not have

some sort of moral lines there on what's right and wrong.

If your educational system is saying, hey, there's no such thing as right and wrong, you cannot have a civilization.

This is what happens.

Now, I never thought we would have to have a law against guys dressing up as little schoolgirls and putting items off the shelf into their orifice

and then putting them back on the shelf.

I never thought we would have that problem.

So, why are we having that now?

What's changed?

Well, there's a few things that have changed.

I think the biggest thing is

shame has been turned into fame.

We have lost our moral compass.

We don't even have a compass anymore.

We don't know what direction.

We're in the woods.

We have no direction.

We're headed.

Could be a happy place.

Could be a cliff.

My bet is the cliff is just ahead.

But we have no moral compass to show us the difference of right and wrong, north and south, up and down.

Then we've lost all of the institutions

that would enforce actual laws, not

you know,

Catholic laws or Presbyterian laws or Mormon laws or any of that.

Actual right and wrong, well thought out, well-crafted laws.

Don't steal, don't kill,

Don't lie.

All of our laws are based on Moses and his Ten Commandments.

It's all based on Judeo-Christian

theology.

It's not a theological regime.

I don't want a theological regime.

But the only way freedom works, you only have two choices.

This ends two ways.

You restore personal responsibility

and you

empower

in the private sector only.

You build up and empower those organizations and those churches that are teaching something that has value and makes people a better person.

Something that's you're striving to be better.

You're striving to be more noble.

We're not striving to be more noble.

We're now seeing who can be more outrageous than the guy in the little schoolgirl skirt stuffing stuff up his butt.

And believe me,

within a month, maybe within an hour, we'll find that person.

Because somebody will accept that as a challenge.

There is no low that is low enough.

We've stopped looking up.

We first just gaze at ourselves like narcissists in the mirror.

It's just us, it's me, me, me, me, me, me, me.

And then when we see people getting popular because they do awful things,

and we're driven to make it more about us, well, I can do that, or I can even do worse.

You either restore personal responsibility, and the best way, our founder said, is through churches.

Because churches, when done correctly in the Judeo-Christian world,

churches

teach people you answer to God.

I do this job.

I live a clean life.

I pay my taxes, not because I'm afraid of the government.

Oh.

I do it because in a different sense of the word fear, I fear God.

I want to be on his side.

So I comply to his rules,

which also kind of are reflected in government laws.

But see, we're not making laws anymore.

Now we have the administration making up new guidelines, making up new rules.

They're not laws.

They're new rules, new guidelines.

And those don't reflect anything,

anything

that the vast majority of people agree with.

And they're only making our country worse.

And by increasing the power of one man or the administration,

you have a greater chance of becoming exactly what Vladimir Putin did.

One way or another.

You say you don't want religion.

Well, I've got news for you.

Wokeism is a religion.

I know, because I wouldn't pay played, play by the rules, so I've been excommunicated in all the cool places.

It's a religion.

America is not a place where we have a state religion, be it wokeism

or Christianity.

We worship God, and in this country, that is a Judeo-Christian

God.

All of our laws and our whole system is built upon that.

That's not bigoted.

That helps people become more Christ-like.

And if you're really Christ-like, you're not accusing people.

You are helping and loving people.

Honey punches of votes for all.

Tocal benefit to

the family.
