migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more.

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

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

It prevents on average eight to nine headache days a month versus six to seven for placebo.

Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor.

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

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

Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk.

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

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

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

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

Why wait?

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

Really great show today.

Let's just say that it ends with

super bottles covered in spaghetti sauce.

Don't ask.

You'll just have to hear it.

And also, I kind of blew my wig a little bit today, a little bit

on

being called a fascist by fascists and nobody really paying attention.

Also, of course, there's always something to learn about Hunter Biden.

Have you seen, well, no,

we don't have pictures on today's podcast, so, and you probably have already seen it with him.

The amazing hypocrisy coming from the White House and the New York Times starting to maybe figure something out.

Today's podcast begins in one minute.

Let me tell you about Jace Medical.

Jace Medical is a company that I've been talking about for a couple years now.

They

provide antibiotics that you can keep at your house.

So like, for instance, we're up here at the ranch or we went on vacation,

what, about four weeks, five weeks ago, and we all got sick, but I didn't have to go find a doctor.

I called my doctor, told him what the symptoms were, and we all started a flight of antibiotics because we had them with us because of the Jace case.

Now they're doing something that honestly is a godsend because this is the thing I have worried about.

If you're a prepper, you worry about what am I going to do for medication?

How am I going to have, you know, heart medicine, cholesterol, you know, anti-seizure medication in my family's case?

What do we do?

Jace Medical has solved that.

Go to jacemedical.com, that's jacemedical.com, and get

now onto their service where they will supply you with a year's worth of all of your prescription medication.

And it's all checked out by a doctor.

It's all illegal.

and you have it there at your house in case of an emergency jacemedical.com that's jace j-a-s-e-medical.com

you're listening to the best of the benefici program

All right, I want to take you back to September 2019.

Fox News Peter Doocy

asked the then candidate Joe Biden very specifically if he had ever spoken to Hunter Biden about his overseas business dealings.

And here is what he said.

Mr.

Vice President, how many times have you ever spoken to your son about his overseas business dealings?

I've never spoken to my son about his overseas business.

And so how do you know?

Here's what I know.

I know Trump deserves to be investigated.

What?

Okay, all right.

He sounds pretty confident there.

All right, let me tell you something, fatty, fat, fat.

So, which he said to a later person,

he better hope that nobody was coming forward and saying otherwise.

I'm sure he was probably guaranteed at the time that everyone was in check and no one would say anything.

There were no whistleblowers waiting in the shadows to expose him yet.

So, what does he pivot to?

Immediately, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump.

Focus on Trump.

Not these crazy allegations from you, fat, fat, fatty.

you, you Fox News zealot.

That was the messaging throughout the entire campaign, and the mainstream media parroted it with teenage exuberance.

It was like they're in love with Joe Biden.

Oh, it's my first love.

Now,

that was during the campaign, but in April 22,

It was still the story that the office of the president was now sticking to.

Jen Saki reiterated that the new president, Joe Biden, had never spoken to his son.

Listen to Jen Saki.

Does the president still maintain that he never spoke with his son about his business dealings?

And given this reporting on Eric Schwerin, does he also say that he has never spoken to his son's business partners about his son's business dealings?

He maintains his same statements that he's made in the past.

It's important for the American people to know if their president is a crook.

Well, I'm not a crook.

Now, how times have changed?

We know now that on March 20th, 2015, Hunter Biden allegedly arranged a meeting in Washington, D.C.

with a high-level burisma executive and had his father stop by.

Now,

I'd like to just, I'd just like to give you just a little bit of the story here.

This is from the Blaze.

While campaigning for president 2019, I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business deals.

Remember, that's the line.

Now, a new report is out that Devin Archer is going to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability about the 24 or more instances when he allegedly witnessed Joe Biden take part in his son's business calls or in-person meetings with foreign nationals and prospective investors.

This figure is far greater than that indicated by the Obama White House visitors logs alone, a review of which found last year that Biden had held court with at least 14 of Hunter Biden's business associates while vice president.

14 we know of because of the visitor logs.

Now it's more than 24.

Archer's testimony should ultimately happen,

but we don't know for sure.

He was supposed to testify, I believe, yesterday, and he is canceled again for the third time.

He just can't seem to make any time for it.

It really stinks.

He's so busy.

Committee Chairman James Comer subpoenaed Archer last month,

signaling that he had, quote, played a significant role in the Biden family business deals abroad, including but not limited to China, Russia, and Ukraine.

Additionally, while undertaking these ventures with the Biden family, Mr.

Archer met with the then Vice President Biden on multiple occasions, including in the White House.

Mr.

Archer's testimony is critical to the committee's investigation.

Archer was at the investment firm Rosemont Seneca Partners with Hunter Biden, which, by the way, none of these guys had any kind of investment experience.

None of them.

They set up an investing house.

Immediately after they set this up, within I think it's two years, they get the largest investment ever,

ever, to anyone outside of China from the Chinese government.

Goldman Sachs didn't even get a deal like this.

Goldman Sachs was like, gee, I wonder what that was.

The committee is investigating foreign national attempt to target and coerce high-ranking U.S.

official official family members by providing money or other benefits in exchange for certain actions.

The committee is considering legislative solutions to this problem.

They have identified Mr.

Archer as possessing information relevant to its investigation and seeks your clients' testimony regarding these and other related topics.

According to Miranda Devine of the New York Post, Archer will testify about two dinners Hunter Biden set up for his then vice president father to meet with the business partners from Ukraine, Russia, and Krafkanistan in Washington, D.C.

Scandal Plague senior

burisma executive reportedly made an appearance at the first dinner along with the Russian billionaire Yelena Betrina, whom U.S.

Senate report previously accused of wiring $3.5 million

to Hunter Biden.

I got to tell you, I mean, the ladies love him.

I mean, he's worth every dime.

This is the former mayor, the wife of the former mayor of Moscow.

Why was she giving him $3.5 million?

For what?

Well, maybe we'd know when Devin Archer testifies about the dinner that Hunter set up with her, the burisma guy, in Washington, D.C.

with his dad, which absolutely never happened.

Following the April event, Hunter reportedly received an email from Burisma thanking him for making the introduction to his dad.

Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to D.C.

and giving me the opportunity to meet your dad and spend some time together.

This we know is true because it was on the laptop that, of course, was not Hunter's.

That never happened.

That's Russian disinformation.

America, how many lies are you going to tolerate?

I just don't know what it is going to take.

Do you know

if you if you assume that let's say he stole $40 million,

if you divide that up onto how many Americans there are,

He took a bribe of 40 million people.

That means, or $40 million.

That means he sold the the American citizens to foreign governments for about 30 cents.

How do you feel about that?

You want to know what an American's life is worth?

According to this president, about 30 cents.

That's what he sold his country out for.

Now we're no longer sending any kind of

tracking, any kind of accountants, anything to Ukraine.

We know they took at least $10 million in corrupt money from Ukraine.

We are sending billions of dollars over there right now.

Do you think that that is a good idea to send it without an accountant?

Another one of the meetings Archer may discuss apparently took place on December 4th in Dubai following a Burisma board meeting.

Archer is expected to testify that he and Hunter Biden left a dinner with Burisma board at the Burj Al Arab Hotel, traveled to the Four Seasons Resort in Dubai, then took a call from Burisma.

The president or CEO of Burisma reportedly wanted to know where they were because Burisma's owner needed to speak to Hunter urgently.

Soon afterward, the two Ukrainians joined Hunter and Archer at the Four Seasons bar, and the CEO asked Hunter, can you ring your dad?

Hunter allegedly complied, calling his father, putting the vice president on speakerphone, then introduced the Ukrainians to Joe Biden.

He said the words to the effect that burisma bigwigs need our support.

While Archer

will reportedly testify, the then president, sorry, the then vice president Joe Biden only spoke in vague pleasantries during the call.

His actions just a few days later were loud and definitive.

Biden traveled to Ukraine and strong-armed the government to fire its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who had launched an investigation into the possible corruption at Burisma, a company that was paying Hunter well over $50,000 a month.

Joe Biden then leveraged $1 billion in U.S.

aid to Ukraine just after the Russian annexation of the Crimea Peninsula in order to get the nation to oust Shokin.

Biden claimed he did so because the prosecutor had not adequately dealt with corruption in the Ukrainian government.

However, that's not what it was.

We showed all of this to you as an audience four years ago.

How long have we been talking about Devin Archer?

How long have we, how long has it been since we told you all of this?

And we were deemed conspiracy theorists.

We

broke this story.

Huh.

So America, what are you going to do about it?

Do you remember the guy in 2019?

He stood up at an Iowa event and he questioned Biden about his health and then asked about Hunter Biden's dealings with Ukraine.

He said, quote, you sent your son over there to get a job and work for a gas company.

He had no experience with gas or anything else.

Biden said, you're a damn liar, man.

That's not true.

Huh.

We now know, as a fact, $10 million in bribes from the oligarch that ran Burisma for the purpose of facilitating Burisma business in the U.S.

and Ukraine.

You say I set up

my son to work at an oil company.

Isn't that what you said?

Get your words straight, Jack.

Look, I'm not going to get in argument with you, man.

Look, fat.

Here's the deal.

And they say that President Trump is rude.

More in just a second.

First, let me tell you about our

sponsorship this half hour.

It's Relief Sleep.

No matter what it is that gets you out of bed in the morning, it's going to have to, it's going to be a lot harder to face if you haven't had a good night's sleep getting adequate rest doesn't only make your day better it also contributes to continuing good health so if you're like me me and you sleep poorly sometimes you might need some help let me tell you something i have uh

i have taken uh what is it ambien when we went over to london

Let me just say, the videos my kids took of me are embarrassing.

And I don't remember anything.

Apparently, I had, quote,

the greatest ice cream I've ever had

because I took an ambient to get back onto schedule over there.

And

it's as bad as a blackout.

And I've had blackouts.

Blackouts should scare the hell out of you.

If you're drinking and you have a blackout, that means your brain has shut down enough that only the essentials are happening.

It's only just the brain is doing nothing but keeping you breathing and your heart beating.

Next step, death.

I've had blackouts.

Ambien causes blackouts.

Not good.

Just not good.

At least for me.

I mean, you do what you want.

I would rather have something that just kind of relaxes me, that I don't feel like it's a drug because it's not.

It's all natural.

It continues and contributes to your good health.

Dream big and sleep tight.

10 seconds, station ID.

So welcome to Pat Gray, who is still today.

There was a, I mean, there was a wrinkle

at the hearing yesterday.

But hey, innocent until proven guilty on Stu.

So we'll talk about that.

He should be back tomorrow.

Everything is.

Don't you think, Pat?

I mean, it wasn't.

Yeah, hey, for sure, tomorrow.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So he'll be back tomorrow.

And I don't want to, I mean, please don't think, I mean, he is in jail, but don't think that it's anything, you know, just remember, innocent until proven guilty.

So, Pat,

innocent until proven guilty.

How much more is it going to take to say we should have an official investigation?

I'm not sure because I think Joe Biden could be pulled over with

empty liquor bottles spread all over his floorboard with a bloody knife on the seat next to him, and a body in the trunk.

And they'd be like, oh, wow.

Were you trying to do surgery on this guy emergency-wise?

Good for you.

No, the guy doesn't even exist.

He doesn't even exist.

What are you talking about?

He doesn't even exist.

I don't know if you saw this, but the FBI told David Weiss that it had partly corroborated the alleged Biden bribery.

So the U.S.

prosecutor, David Weiss,

was told by the FBI that they had partially corroborated the claims that Barisma Holdings founder bribed then Vice President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden with $5 million each.

The Pittsburgh FBI office actually corroborated several details,

and then it was turned over, and it was turned over to General William Barr, which, you know,

I liked Bill Barr for a while.

I don't think he is

on the right side of things.

He then said,

you know, gave it to the FBI, root out any of the information and follow this up.

And then they did nothing.

They did nothing.

I don't know.

That's a problem.

What do you want him to do?

Well, I mean, I don't understand, Glenn.

What do you want him to do?

This is Joe Biden we're talking about.

There's, I mean,

he's clean as the driven snow.

We know that.

We know that.

You're the damn liar.

I'm sorry.

That was his case.

Yeah.

I don't know if you heard this one, too.

Hunter Biden's artwork has reportedly brought in at least $1.3 million.

$1.3 million.

Now, as an artist who sells very expensive artwork, I don't set the price.

The art galleries set the price.

I can't sell it for anything less.

Otherwise, I violate my contract with the art galleries.

Let me just say.

The art business

really,

when I first, when they set the prices for my art, I was like, my son said, are they talking hundreds or thousands?

And I said, I don't know.

I think thousands.

And he's like, whoa.

And I said, I know.

Keep your mouth shut.

It was, it's crazy.

It is absolutely crazy.

And if you want to launder money, that's the way you should do it.

And that's apparently, now this is going to come as a shock to you, what Hunter Biden has been doing.

Documents obtained by Business Insider show that a buyer, Elizabeth Hirsch Nafatali, a real estate investor from Los Angeles, was appointed to the Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad eight months after the First Sun's art opening.

She made a $850,000 purchase, I'm sorry, $875,000 purchase of some of his art.

And then she mysteriously

is appointed to the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad Commission.

Surprise.

What a coincidence.

Who would have seen this happening?

More in a minute.

The best of the Glen Bank program.

So,

you know, this, I'm going to do something that the left never does.

I am going to now defend somebody who I think would be a dangerous candidate and president.

He is a man that

I am fascinated by because of his history.

I respect him as

a man and he's going to be on this show.

But I vehemently disagree with him on almost every policy he has,

except for the ones that have come lately and that's concerning to me.

But let me please defend a man who has literally called for my trial and execution as a traitor to the United States because I don't believe in his solutions to global warming.

Okay?

Nobody on the left ever does this.

But when somebody is right, my father always taught me, you can vehemently disagree with people,

but you better be willing to fight for the death to the death for their right to say it because if you don't there is no freedom of speech for you

so let me fight to the death here for Robert F.

Kennedy Jr.

The New York Society for Ethical Culture Oh,

just get me a bucket to vomit in just over that

canceled an event on Monday last night that was to have featured Democratic presidential candidate Robert F.

Kennedy.

He was going to deliver a pro-Israel speech to a Jewish group on Tuesday evening.

The group, the World's Values Network,

will still host the event

at another venue.

However, the cancellation by the New York Society for Ethical Culture marks the latest effort by a supposedly liberal organization to marginalize Robert F.

Kennedy.

Now, I've come to a place in my life that I think Robert F.

Kennedy Sr.

could have been

a pivot point in America.

I really think that he's one of the better candidates.

You know, I don't have any evidence of what he would have been like as president.

But I think he was one of the best candidates of my lifetime, maybe next to Ronald Reagan.

So his son, who is outspoken on many things, again, I disagree with,

he was now to address this group and then

they started pressuring this group after he spoke in front of Congress and Congress tried to shut him, not the Republicans, the Democrats tried to shut Robert F.

Kennedy Jr.

up in

a hearing about censorship.

So, what's happened?

Well, the rabbi that runs this group said smearing Bobby Kennedy, who has voiced greater pro-Israel support than any Democratic candidate for president in decades, as an anti-Semite is disgusting and immoral.

Bobby alone,

among leaders of the Democratic Party, has condemned President Biden's new Iran deal, which will give billions to the murderous mullahs while they vow a second Holocaust.

Absolutely true.

He has praised the IDF as one of the world's most morally grounded militaries.

I believe that too.

He has affirmed the Jewish people as indigenous population of the Holy Land, which is absolutely true.

But they canceled the event, so he is not going to speak.

Robert F.

Kennedy said, somehow I'm the subject to this new form of censorship, which is called targeted propaganda.

Now the

natural man in me would like to say, oh really, Bob?

Now you care about targeted propaganda, which you say is the most appalling, disgusting.

They take pejoratives, apply them to people to silence them.

Really, Bob, now you care?

But

I'm going to rise above the natural man

and say,

this is wrong in all cases.

In cases of conservatives being smeared, called

anti-Semite when they are not,

called

Nazis when they're not

called all kinds of names this is the tool that has been used over and over again in history by the worst people imaginable it was used by Mao it was used by Stalin it was used by Hitler that's what fascists and killers do.

This is exactly what they did in Germany to Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

He was giving a speech on the Führer principle and Hitler had the transmitter shut off.

He shut that speech on radio off.

Why?

Because he could.

Now while I'm here,

I am so sick and tired of this country not recognizing what a fascist is.

A fascist is somebody who believes the state and the government should be in bed together

and the government should dictate what

the

businesses should be doing and should be making

and then the businesses go make that and if they don't make that the government puts them out of business.

They'll find somebody else.

This is what's happening in China, and this is what's happening now in the United States.

It is called ESG.

It is fascism, period.

Let me tell you something else about fascism.

Do you know how they got the people in the street to salute, to give the Nazi salute?

How did you get everybody to salute when he really only had 30% of the population behind him at the beginning?

How did you get non-Nazis to salute?

You'd beat people in the streets.

You'd make examples of them.

You would call them, let me quote here, the most appalling, disgusting pejoratives to silence them.

And then, if you didn't learn your lesson, they would beat you in the streets.

They would burn your buildings down.

Does that sound familiar?

Then they demanded absolute loyalty if you didn't place a, what I was going to say, a black square on your

social feed, but oh, no, if you didn't put a swastika in your store,

you were part of the problem.

Now I have to say, I haven't said this yet, but I am so sick and tired.

They marked stores.

They would go and mark stores and people, Jew, they would beat and jail capitalists, religious people, or anyone who would not bow or bend the knee.

Well, gee, that sounds familiar.

And it started a few years ago.

Look, I'll negotiate with anybody.

I'll talk to anybody as long as they agree with me.

Well, that's not a negotiation.

These people have lied to you over and over again, and they are building

a brown shirt army.

Let me ask you,

how many companies and

how many businesses, how many store owners

actually

want to fly the rainbow flag?

I was over in Europe the beginning of

Gay Pride Month.

Every store I was in, and I mean every store I was in had a pride flag.

Every building had a pride flag.

Every hotel had a pride flag.

I was in

Scotland, in Edinburgh, and the hotel that we're staying in had a floral arrangement

as a pride flag in the entryway.

It was everywhere.

And I thought, does everyone agree with everything the pride flag stands for?

Is that true?

Is everyone doing it?

Or is that, hey, just leave me alone.

I won't be a problem.

Because that's what happened in Germany.

That's what happened with Stalin.

That's what happened with Mao.

Just leave me alone.

I won't be a problem.

To hell with that, America.

Are you Americans or have we turned into Europe are we jellyfish

I have nothing against homosexuals nothing I have never been against gay marriage I'm against telling churches who they must and must not marry If my church decides to marry people, that's my church.

Your church decides to marry people, that's your church.

I have no place, nor does the federal government, have any place in anybody's personal life, period.

Period.

But I have to tell you,

the fires of hell and the gates of hell could open up at my front gate and I will not

fly a pride flag period

and it has nothing to do with homosexuality.

It has everything to do with politics.

Everything in our society now is political.

You can't talk to your friend about anything

or they will shut you down.

And I don't mean them as homosexuals.

I mean the political machines behind all of this.

You better put a black square up on your social media or you don't like Black Lives Matter.

Therefore, you don't like black people.

Therefore, you're a Nazi and need to be stopped.

That's insanity.

That's insanity.

If you can't handle someone's opinion, if you can't, I can handle Bobby Kennedy's opinion and he called for my death.

You can't handle somebody's opinion?

You have to cancel them?

I got to tell you, I am proud to say when I get back into Dallas, Bobby Kennedy is one of my first guests on my podcast.

And it will be perfectly gentlemanly, at least on my side.

I am not looking to sabotage him.

I am looking to learn from him what he actually believes.

I don't want him to be president, but that's not my decision.

That's your decision and the people all around you.

You can't handle Bobby Kennedy

speaking up for Israel.

You are so afraid of speech that a guy who can barely speak terrifies you.

That should say something about how weak you really are.

And by the way, CMT,

you're a joke.

You are an absolute joke.

You say your country music television, what the hell does country music even mean?

Country music,

the reason why a vast majority of people in this country who like country music like it, because it is reflecting our values and our principles.

You take,

you take, try that in a small town, and you, as a company, actually say, yep, that's racist.

That's not racist.

That is not racist.

I don't care if it was a bunch of white people that came to my town and were setting it on fire.

We're trying to break all of the laws.

We're using the laws and our kindness against us.

You go ahead and try that in a small town, white boy you go ahead and try it in my town we are not going to put up with it that is not racist but CMT let me quote Bobby Kennedy that is targeted propaganda to censor people

it is disgusting

It is appalling.

And it is un-American.

Back in a minute.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.

Peachy.

Welcome.

Hey, Glenn, how are you?

I am very good.

Domestic extremist, a practical guide to winning the culture war.

She writes in it, in this house, we believe parents are the bosses of their kids.

Babies are good.

More babies are better.

Two sexes are plenty.

Your career is overrated.

Feminism is how the unpopular and undatable cope with life.

Mainstream American culture destroys families, and we are going to win.

I love the way you write, Peachy.

I just love it.

Just love it.

So

let's talk about the book here in a second.

First, can you please just summarize what you wrote

with all of these airlines saying we're going to hire for equity and diversity

in the in the cockpit, you mean the pilots?

Yeah, I pitched this idea on Twitter, and then the Federalists asked me to write an article.

And my idea is a new airline called Merit Air, okay?

So maybe you pay a little more, okay?

But your pilots are going to be all the guys who got fired from the other airlines in favor of

equity hires.

So you're going to have the most experienced

people who have been vetted.

You know, there's no diversity in this hiring.

And that's, you know, you're guaranteed to get to get where you're going.

I really don't care.

I really don't care.

If it's, if it's an iguana flying the plane, if iguanas are the most qualified.

I don't care.

I like, you know what I like in my

air travel is as many takeoffs as I have landings.

That's really important to me.

I like those numbers to be equal.

And I don't want any diversity there.

I want the same number of takeoffs as I have with landings.

I think that would be good.

I think that would be good.

So,

Peachy,

tell me about your book.

I just bought it online.

I haven't read it.

I'm sorry.

But I'm going to read it.

Tell me about your book.

Yeah, so I used to joke around that I'm not a domestic extremist i'm just extremely domestic and by that i mean me like many of my friends we are i'm a stay-at-home mom i'm a work-at-home mom i quit my job to stay home with my you know nurse and raise my my last baby and you know we we do crazy extreme things like we go to mass on sundays and you know i think that mothers are probably the best

you know i'm going to get arrested any minute now for my extremist beliefs but it really does feel like when you're a mother and you decide to, let's say, have a big family, have more than two kids, you want to stay home and raise your own children over your career.

It really feels like that other women, especially, look at you like you're some crazy extremist.

And, but actually, we're the ones who are going to save the civilization.

Yeah.

Do we, I'm full,

let me,

before I ask you how we do that, do you really believe that?

That we're going to save this civilization?

That it's worth saving at this point?

Well, I mean, if I didn't think that, then I would say, you know, what's the point of waking up in the morning and worrying about and making the kids breakfast and getting their homework done?

What would be the point of it all?

I have to stay positive.

And yes, I have to believe we can and we will win.

Okay, good.

I mean, that was just the dark side of me speaking up.

I usually keep them, well, I don't usually keep that dark side quiet, but I'll try to.

How do we go about waking the people up or convincing people

that,

hey,

these things are big deals and you should pay attention to it?

I think most people feel, like for instance, with Biden,

they see all this corruption.

They know it's true.

But I talk to people and they say, I don't really care.

That's not what they mean.

They mean I'm not

watching it because it is just an exercise in frustration because they're not going to get nailed for it.

And so why do I watch that circus?

Yeah, I also think that for a long time people thought, well, what can I do?

You know, what's the point of me even complaining or me even voting?

What, you know, nothing's going to matter?

Nothing's going to happen.

But what we've seen a real shift this year where people, when they kind of work together and their strength in numbers, actually make big changes.

Like we've seen with Bud Light, you know, they're like done.

That whole brand is over.

And Target and all these other things, I mean, I really feel like people can finally feel like, oh, I'm not alone.

You know, my one little voice, my one little vote, maybe I can actually make a difference.

I'm starting to see things too on social media.

And maybe because maybe it's just Twitter, I don't know.

but I'm starting to see pushback from people

when they're just blindly told

you better accept that that is not only a woman but the most beautiful woman you've ever seen and people are starting to have more confidence to go dude I mean that's a dude in a dress and it and really makes a very hideously ugly woman and they're starting to say those things

that's a good sign.

Yeah, I think when they started coming for our kids, people who were sort of in the middle and would never have normally spoken up are speaking up.

I mean, here in California and Los Angeles, there's like, there's like war, there's like battle zones now outside elementary schools where parents, often immigrant parents, are fighting back against the transgender lobby.

And they're saying, you know what, no.

We don't really want our fifth graders learning, you know, seeing child pornography.

Like, is that okay?

And again, it's strength in numbers.

It's seeing these things.

People are, I really feel like finally feeling empowered to say, no, this is insane.

It's like, we're not going to let you do this to the kids.

So I think this all is a religion that is forcing everybody to bow down to.

And they'll excommunicate you.

And they have the resources and the willingness to excommunicate people.

They're doing it all the time in cancel culture and everything else.

But they don't seem like, for instance, Budweiser has come out and said, yeah,

we're still, yeah, we're, hey, we're with you, transgender people.

And it's not about transgenderism.

It's about

taking these political stan everything is political, everything now.

And they're taking these political stances that are so against the culture, but they don't seem to care even even when they're punished.

What's going to make them care?

Yeah, they're choosing the value of the virtue signal over the value of their stock product

every time.

And we see every company doing this, Disney, you know, flop after flop.

Their new Snow White looks like another one.

Here we go again.

Gosh, I know.

Jeez.

Same screenwriter of Snow White as the screenwriter of Barbie, just FYI.

So that just can tell you what's coming.

But yeah, I mean,

it really will take just like enormous pushback by people saying, you know what, we're not going to Disney World anymore anymore.

We're literally not going to do these things.

It's not even really a boycott anymore.

It's just we're kind of cutting that out of our lifestyle.

And if we do that in enough numbers, it will work over time.

It's not overnight.

You know, we're not going to win this thing by Tuesday.

You know, this is, they had a 100-year head start.

I think you're right about

it's not a boycott.

It's just

a lifestyle to where you're like,

I just, I can't be part of that culture.

Uh, and I think people are going to soon start self-selecting.

They already are to some degree, but I think we're going to start self-selecting a lot,

where people are going to start moving into communities and to states where they're like, you know what?

I'm not putting up with that anymore.

I'm going here.

And they're going to start living by like-minded people more and more.

Because it's just,

if

I have a, again, this is the dark side of me talking, so pay no attention to him.

He's a pessimist.

But I think there's a good chance that the Democrats know that.

They got the system rigged and they'll win.

And I say that not because of the last time, but because of the

presidential order that was put in the very beginning beginning of the Biden administration for a government-wide program

to recruit and register new voters.

They won't respond to Congress saying, what the hell does that even mean?

What did you do?

And

the only way to save that is through very strong states and people saying, I'm not going there.

I'm just not going there.

Yeah, I mean, I've lost a lot of my L.A.

friends to Dallas.

As you know, they've been fleeing California in droves.

I've lost, you know, 10 friends, not lost.

I mean, God bless them.

They're doing great.

They're happy.

You know, here I am alone.

People definitely are voting for their feet.

And I think they need to vote for their feet.

Even if they're stuck in blue cities, they can

vote with their feet in other ways.

For example, by pulling their kids out of government indoctrination centers.

We used to call those public schools.

And look at the rise in homeschooling.

I mean, everywhere.

I just met someone who in Orange County or San Merdino County who runs a homeschooling group of almost 1,000 kids in a small, relatively small city, 1,000 children who are freed, been liberated from the religious indoctrination centers called public schools.

And yet we have states like Texas who the Republicans in there are such weasels.

They get money from the teachers' unions.

And, you know, they're just,

they're stopping

school choice, which is insane.

Insane.

I look at Republicans now and they are constantly

moderation, blah, blah, blah, Mitt Romney.

I think the country right now would love to have a Republican and a Democrat stand up in the well of the Senate or the or

the House and just say, I'm not any of this.

You guys are all lost.

You're all lost.

Here are the things that have to be done.

And I don't mean a, you know, what is that, that

third party they're trying to get off the ground where it's like, we're going to be moderate.

No, no, we're not going to be moderate.

We're going to be true to our values.

And our values are set forth in our Declaration of Independence and our Bill of Rights, period.

That's what we're going to do.

And I think that person would win by a a landslide.

Yeah, I think you're right.

I think the country's ripe for that.

I mean, the only party I despise more than the Democrat is the Republican establishment.

I mean, it is

worse than useless.

And in many cases, there's like no daylight between your like typical Republican guy

and the Democrat.

And the thing is, they're both so out of step, so out of sync with how people are feeling, regular people are feeling.

We just are just totally unrepresented, even in states like Texas, even in red states, even in Tennessee, where I have friends.

It feels like we need to kind of like rip them all out, you know, root and branch and just start over.

But hey, you know, we can start today.

Like I said, they have a big head start on us.

But the best time to start, get rid of them all is today.

Yep.
