Can Trump Ban Transgenders from Owning Firearms? | 9/5/25

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

I lit the fuse and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

He kept saying, No, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

Yeah, aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

Coming up, we got a lot to talk about.

We do.

As per you.

In fact, one of the things that we do need to talk about is one of the things that we touched on at the end of Pat Gray Unleashed

was this China hacking has all our information.

And we're allowing, we're still going to allow 600,000 students to come into this country.

No.

I know.

I know.

No.

And it's interesting because President Trump said it was important, and he said it was important like three or four times when he made that announcement.

The 600,000 extra Chinese students are coming here.

And really, what?

It was under 300,000, and now we're bumping that up to 600,000?

And that's, I mean, I thought.

Yeah, we'll get into it.

We'll get into it because I think it's important.

Yes, it's important.

I do think it's important.

We'd like to get your thoughts on it, too.

Where are you?

You know, for Trump supporters, there's been a couple of tough things.

I'm a Trump supporter.

There's been a couple of tough things.

All right, we'll talk about those tough things and much more, things that aren't so tough, coming up in just seconds on the radio show.

Down the road where shadows hide, till the dark on every side.

Stand your ground when times get dark.

Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is

the Glenn Beck program.

Hey!

Welcome.

Lots to discuss.

One of the things we're going to get into

is the fact that

China may have stolen data

from every American.

Don't worry about it.

Don't worry about it.

We'll get into that and a lot more coming up here.

Another week, though, another breach.

Speaking of breaches,

speaking of stealing information,

this time it's TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting agencies.

Hackers got in through a third-party application and stole names, birth dates, even social security numbers.

That's the kind of information criminals can use to take out loans in your name, commit crimes while pretending to be you, and leave you picking up the pieces.

And the worst part, you might not even know it happened.

That's why I recommend Lifelock.

That's why Glenn recommends LifeLock.

They monitor millions of data points every second, looking for signs that your identity is being misused.

Things like suspicious credit applications or your info showing up on the dark web.

If something looks off, they alert you fast.

And if your identity is stolen, Lifelock doesn't just send you a checklist.

They assign a dedicated U.S.-based restoration specialist to fix the damage.

And yes, it's backed by a money-back guarantee.

You can't stop every data breach, but you can be ready.

Protect yourself with Life Lock.

Terms apply.

Yeah, so data breaches,

a plenty.

And we hear about it almost every day now.

Absolutely.

It's kind of amazing how often we hear about stolen data.

We get updates in our email.

We get updates in actual mail saying that, yeah, you know, maybe some of your data was breached, but we're, you know, we're working on it right now.

Don't worry about

it.

We'll let you know if there's any kind of problem.

Right.

And if there's a password, go ahead and change it if you want.

A little late, but go ahead and try it.

We'll see if that happens.

Works.

I don't know.

It may not do you any good, but

it'll make you feel better.

Don't worry about it.

Worrying about it now, just it won't help anything.

So just know what happens.

Right.

It's in my YouTube feed.

I've been watching this guy who's a

really good computer hacker, and

he messes with scammers, people who call old people

and tell them that they've got a computer problem, and then they get into their computer and they steal their money and all of those kinds of things.

What he does is get in touch with the scammer acting like somebody with a computer problem, and then he hacks into their system.

Oh, nice.

Fights them back.

And deletes all their information.

So

it's awesome.

It just, it's a feel-good kind of thing.

We should

get him a map and show him where China is.

Exactly, because China is the worst offender of this.

China has hacked into American power grids and companies for decades, stealing sensitive files, intellectual property, like chip designs.

And it seeks to gain, of course, an edge over the United States.

But a sweeping cyber attack

by a group known as Salt Typhoon is China's most ambitious yet.

Experts and officials have concluded that this is a real problem after a year of investigating it.

It targeted more than 80 countries and may have stolen information from nearly every American.

Wow.

Wow.

They see it as evidence that China's capabilities rival those of the United States and its allies.

The SALT Typhoon attack was a years-long coordinated assault that infiltrated major telecommunications companies and others.

Investigators said in a highly unusual joint statement last week,

the range of the attack was far greater than originally understood, and security officials warned that the stolen data could allow Chinese intelligence services to exploit global communication networks to track targets, including politicians, spies, and activists.

Is Is that a problem?

Not a

why would that be a problem?

I mean, how long have, I mean, I'm just thinking about myself, how long I've said, kind of half-jokingly, look, everybody's information is out there.

You just have to try to protect yourself as best you can.

It's actually true.

It is true.

I mean, we're finding that out daily, and now with this, in particular for Shier, I mean, it's out there.

Your information has been hacked.

British and American officials have described the attack as unrestrained and indiscriminate.

Canada, Finland, Germany, Italy, Japan, and Spain were also signatories on this statement.

So much information, though.

I mean,

I will say it's, you know, I don't know how you go through it that fast, but maybe with AI's help, you can get through it fairly quickly.

But wow, it's just so much information.

And it's just,

we let everybody have it.

According to Cynthia Kaiser, who's a former top official at the FBI's cyber division, I can't imagine any American was spared given the breadth of this campaign.

Wow.

Kind of a problem.

Yeah.

Which is why it's even more exciting now that we're going to allow 600,000 Chinese students to come to American universities.

I do not understand this.

I don't either.

I don't get it.

I don't get it.

If anybody understands this new President Trump plan,

where they're going to welcome all of these Chinese students into the U.S., who've already been spying on us, by the way, who have already infiltrated corporations and American universities and have spied.

We know we've had spies in our government.

We've had Congresspeople sleeping with spies.

We've had senators have an aide.

Their main aide was a spy.

Right.

I mean, it's just incredible.

Yeah.

I mean, Eric Swalwell slept with a Chinese spy for two years.

We're supposed to just forget that.

Like, that's okay.

He was on the intelligence committee.

I mean, and he's still in congress how is it even possible and he talks down to us when we bring it up right stop it right no you should not have hold office but if anybody has a good explanation for this i'd love to hear it uh triple eight 727 b e c k because i don't under we we are very

perplexed absolutely absolutely perplexed i especially this time why would you take a chance especially this time i mean we're we're already you know we're we're we're fighting the world over the tariffs and we're fighting the world actually over some of the sanctions against Russia

because of the Ukraine-Russia war or the Russia-Ukraine war.

And

we've got leaders

questioning all other leaders, and we're still going to allow this main, I mean, China just tried to just...

put a slap in our face with their giant military parade showing all the information that was hacked and taken and stolen from us.

And by the way, the president

made note of this

that that was

in part on his behalf.

Yes.

They wanted to show him the Chinese military.

Okay.

Well, all right.

You did.

I get your point.

How about no on all your students coming to this country?

How about no.

Right.

So it's

fascinating.

And you kind of understand why Modi is upset from India because

he's getting hammered with buying oil from Russia.

So he's getting that secondary sanction of the 50%, I think,

from the Russian oil.

Well, that hasn't happened to China.

Right.

And so,

I mean, as Modi was our friend.

I think he has a point there.

He does.

Yeah.

Strange.

It is.

I don't fully comprehend.

I don't either.

I don't get it.

But maybe, you know, maybe somebody can explain it to us.

I just think it's a really bad idea.

China has spied on us to the extent that most of their technology has come from us.

If not all.

Yeah.

If not all of their super high-tech

weapons and their super high-tech computer technology and things like their deep-seek AI.

I mean, all of that came from us.

So I don't know why you would potentially help that along by inviting 600,000 more because among those, are there no spies?

Come on.

Of course there are.

Of course there are.

Is it the case that they're all spies?

It might be.

I mean,

I think it's a pretty high percentage.

Absolutely.

And there was one,

was it Donald Trump or was it What's Your Face, Levitt, talking about how schools would lose money and students and go out of business or whatever, which I find very difficult to believe.

Yes, I do too.

And so, and here's another thing.

If that university is depending on their 100,000 Chinese students and they can't go after that, so be it.

Oh, well.

Darn the luck.

Somehow these American universities got along just fine before we started this flood of Chinese students.

And I don't know when this was, right?

Because remember, we looked and

we thought maybe Trump misspoke because the numbers were under 300,000 of Chinese students.

Still a lot.

It was like 275 or something.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I think the 600,000 was, we thought, or at least at the time, maybe he's talking about the total international correct.

But no, since then.

That's not what he said.

They've reinforced the 600,000 Chinese

multiple times.

Yeah, so I don't know.

I don't know.

It's a little bit confusing.

Yesterday, too, there was a very contentious hearing

involving RFK Jr.

It was awesome.

It was awesome.

It was awesome because he doesn't just sit there and take it like so many people do.

Which is a big proponent proponent of Trump administration.

Yes.

We don't take this anymore.

We're not just going to let you shout and scream and lie in our faces and play nice.

We're going to fight back.

Yeah.

And I mean, that's enjoyable.

It really is.

It is enjoyable.

It really is.

It's why we like

RFK, despite the fact that I disagree with him on many issues.

But I love that he's standing up like he is against some of these buffoons that are attacking him on these things.

Here he is, though, giving us some incredible statistics on infectious and chronic disease in America.

This morning, I got the latest numbers from CDC

that 76.4% of Americans now have a chronic disease.

Wow.

This is stunning.

When my uncle was president, it was 11%.

In 1950, it was 3%.

Today, it's 76.4%.

76.4%.

Eight out of 10 of our kids cannot qualify for military service.

Wow.

This is a national security issue.

When my uncle was president, we spent zero on chronic disease.

Today, we spent $1.3 trillion.

It's the biggest cause.

It's increasing.

All of the arguments that Republicans and Democrats have about single-payer Obamacare or

the various ways of allocate the health dollars, they're all like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

If we don't end this chronic disease, we are the sickest country in the world.

That's why we have to fire people at CDC.

They did not do their job.

This was their job to keep us healthy.

Thank you.

And I need to fire some of those people to make sure this doesn't happen again.

There's more coming.

Yep.

There's more coming.

Don't get too comfortable in your offices, Moray, because

we're going to fire people.

And he he knows they're going to hammer him with that.

Oh, my gosh.

You fired people, and that was mean.

Yeah, it was necessary.

You just hired her.

Might be mean, but it was necessary.

You just hired her, and then you fired her.

Yeah, he's going to explain that.

I know.

That was so pretty great.

But was that stat 11% under

JFK?

11% chronic disease or 60.

In 60, I think it was 10 or 11% of the time.

And it was

4%.

3% in 1950.

To 76.4% of us now have chronic illness,

including me.

I have it.

You have it.

I most certainly don't have it.

Is there any disease you don't currently have?

First of all, that's what we should do.

I believe that your boy RFK Jr.

has changed the parameters on chronic diseases.

Is that why it's a lot of fun?

So that's why it's a little bit high.

76.4.

I see.

So

I feel like

I don't have to go in those parameters.

Is he my boy now?

I didn't realize.

I took ownership.

He is right now.

RF is right now.

He's right now.

I mean, I don't know of anyone that doesn't have a chronic disease.

I guess my kids.

Yeah.

But if you're an adult, you probably have

a chronic disease.

You know why?

It's those damn Chinese hackers.

That's what

it does.

That's what diseases.

Yep.

They've hacked into our very bodies and downloaded viruses.

Right.

Right.

Okay.

All right.

10 seconds, then back to the show.

Okay, so 76.4 of us now have chronic disease,

as opposed to back in JFK day, 11.

And then in 1950, I think he said either 3 or 4%.

I mean, that's a staggering amount.

3%.

Something.

So something is going on.

I don't know.

Something environmentally.

Clearly.

Something culturally.

Something in our food.

Something in our...

I don't know.

I don't know what it's coming from.

We've heard

an overwhelming amount of interviews talking about the difference in food

going to other countries and then coming back here.

And so

is it everything that we're putting into our foods?

I don't.

I mean, I personally, I don't know.

But I mean, we've joked around forever, at least I have, about, you know, I want the preservatives and the colors.

I'm okay with that.

Yeah, because we'd rather look at something that looks appetizing than it actually be good for us.

Thank you.

Yeah.

We want it to look good.

Yeah.

If that takes a preservative, so the lettuce will last longer than a day in my refrigerator.

So be it.

Good.

Give it to me.

Yes, absolutely.

I mean, I think that may be an issue.

Yeah, maybe.

It may be an issue.

It may be.

And we want our apples to be super red.

We don't want it to have some kind of.

So if it takes some sort of unnatural dye to make that happen, go ahead.

Oh, well.

Go ahead.

Because our body just absorbs it.

We're fine.

Yeah, we're fine.

Yeah.

As long as you can't taste it, nobody cares.

But then you see a statistic like 76.4%.

There is a problem.

Yeah, there's a problem there.

There's a problem.

I don't know what it is.

I mean, RFK thinks he knows what it is.

And I think he believes it's preservatives, it's food coloring, it's all the things that...

We're putting in our food.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And is it?

I don't know.

Maybe.

Maybe.

It wouldn't surprise me.

Yeah.

It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

Here he is, though, being questioned by Senator Ron Wyden on America's health.

Senator, you've sat in that chair for how long?

20, 25 years, while the chronic disease in our children went up to 76%.

And you said nothing.

You never asked the question why it's happening.

Why is this happening?

Today, for the first time in 20 years,

we've learned that infant mortality has increased in our country.

It's not because I came in here.

It's because of what happened during the Biden administration that we're going to end.

So put that in your pipe and smoke it, Senator.

That's great.

And it's true, though.

What have you done about it?

I mean, here you are questioning me.

I've been in this capacity for, what, six months?

You've been there for 20 years.

Come on.

Who's the real offender here?

It's obviously Senator Wyden.

Yeah.

Senator Roger Marshall talked about the numbers of shots recommended for kids.

Listen to this.

Behind me, yeah, I know it's going to be hard to see from there.

I can barely read it.

This is the current CDC recommendations for vaccines for children.

On day number one, they get their first jab, a hepatitis vaccine.

By the time they're 18 months, they've had 18 jabs.

By the time they get to be old enough to vote, they have 76 jabs.

70.

Huh.

That seems to be the same number of jabs as the percentage of people with chronic disease.

Trying to cure every disease with a jab.

Huh.

That's interesting.

Now, he's helping out, making the point with RFK Jr.

here, I think, that maybe the vaccines have something to do with it.

And I don't know if they do or not.

Yeah.

I don't know.

I mean, we've explored that.

They've done tests on that.

Science generally says that's not the case.

But I don't know.

Are these vaccines affecting us adversely in the long run?

I don't know.

I don't know.

And specifically, I don't know that we've actually had the full data on the vaccines with the mRNA technology.

That's supposed to come out this month, right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

The vaccine information that he promised us months ago coming out in September.

So let's see.

Here we are.

Let's see it.

Here we are.

He's getting all bogged down in these hearings.

Let's get to work.

Yeah.

He had much more.

You've got to hear him going up against Elizabeth Wong.

It's so fun.

It's awesome.

It's so good.

It really is awesome.

Because she's terrible.

She really is.

She is just a terrible human being.

Yes.

As are so many of them.

It's not a surprise that she's sitting right next to Bernie Sanders.

He's agonizing as well.

We'll get into that and lots more coming up.

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn and Stewart today.

All right.

The White House did

update the Chinese student situation yesterday.

They explained it a little bit, but this is pretty much what we were saying.

They clarified that President Trump's remarks about Chinese students were not about allowing 600,000 new arrivals from the country into the U.S.

Instead, officials explained that the figure referred to the roughly 300,000 Chinese students already enrolled

over a two-year period.

This is what we said.

That's what we said.

There are 300,000 here.

And so, does that mean another 300,000?

This does not dispute that.

President Trump isn't proposing an increase in student visas.

Okay, well, he's not proposing an increase in student visas for Chinese students.

The 600,000 references, two years' worth of visas.

Okay, so 300,000 this year, 300,000 next year,

600,000 over two years?

Yeah, they don't, we don't get, we don't, uh, that's still confusing.

They don't replace each other?

Still confusing.

Yeah, they, do, do they replace each other or do they stay?

Right.

You know, they're one-year visas.

Do they replace each other?

That's a good question.

Or do they stay?

I do not know.

And further clarification.

Originally, we talked about them being around under 300,000, but I think the total number of

immigrant students

was like 600,000.

Because that's where we got the original number of 600,000 from.

Yes.

Which is why we thought

he was misspoke because he was talking about

immigrant students.

It's kind of what they're trying to say here.

I guess, but they didn't say it.

They didn't actually say that.

If that's the case, why wouldn't you say it?

I don't.

No, he meant

that's 600,000 overall.

Yeah.

300,000 of those will be Chinese students.

Yeah, okay.

On Tuesday during the cabinet meeting, here's what President Trump said.

I hear so many stories that we're not going to allow their students.

I haven't heard those stories.

Have you?

I wish

I want to hear those things.

I want the stories to be accurate.

We're not saying.

And we've been hearing stories about us saying we don't want them.

But then he followed up with, we are going to allow their students to come in.

It's very important.

600,000 students.

It's very important.

Why?

Why is it very important?

And that's where we got the

from What's Your Face Carolyn Levitt saying that we need those students to prop up the schools.

Right.

So no.

How about no?

Right.

So the White House has posted a few things.

Another post tagged White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

Nobody, I repeat, nobody wants 600,000 more Chinese students, also known as communist spies in the United States.

That's correct.

We don't want 600,000 more.

We don't want any.

Yeah, I don't think that 300,000 should be here in the first place.

Correct.

We've already paid a huge price for that.

Why is it our responsibility to educate China's people?

Why?

I don't.

I don't know.

Why?

I don't know.

We do the same thing with athletes.

We

are the world's athletes here.

We train them.

We make them stronger.

We make them faster.

We make them smarter.

Then we send them back to their country to compete against us in the Olympic Games.

Why?

Because they don't have the right facilities to train and get up to the forest.

I don't care.

That's their fault.

We want to be friends.

That's the responsibility of their country.

Let France do that.

Let Spain do that.

Let China do that.

And we just take it.

I mean, we just

like, oh, yes, of course we do that.

And you know, it's irritant.

They know each other.

They trained together every day for the last three years, and now they hate each other.

It's an irritant when you're talking about Olympic sports.

It's a crisis.

When you're talking about national security,

it's a big, yeah, it's a problem.

So

let's stop it.

Please.

Let's stop it.

Please, let's stop it.

So I still don't really fully comprehend.

Is it 300,000 more than not 600, and for a total of 600,000?

Or do they replace the 300,000 that are here now with 300,000 different ones next year?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I'm still a little fuzzy on it.

They still haven't clarified to myself.

It's really easy to fix that by saying.

None.

None.

Zero.

Yes.

We don't need to clarify.

It's zero.

I don't have a problem with that.

How many American students are being trained in China?

Oh, yeah.

It's a pretty low number, I'm guessing.

It was

700.

I think it was 700, right?

Yeah, not 700,000.

I think it was 700.

No, I think it was literally

700.

I think so.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Are we pissed about that?

No.

No, they're buddy with Tim Walls, and we're fine.

Yeah, I know.

Tim probably escorted him over there.

Probably.

Probably.

All right, so let's get back to the RFK hearing because there was fireworks about to happen

between RFK Jr.

and Elizabeth Warren.

This is cut five.

Let's clear this up right now, Secretary Kennedy.

Will you tell America that all adults and all children over six months of age are eligible to get a COVID booster at their local pharmacy today?

Anybody can get the booster.

I'm sorry?

Anybody can get it.

Anybody.

So you're saying that is now the official rule of HHS.

Anybody is eligible to get a booster by just walking into the pharmacy.

It's not recommended for healthy people.

No, no.

If you don't recommend, then the consequence of that in many states is that you can't walk into a pharmacy and get one.

It means insurance companies don't have to cover the $200 or so cost.

As Senator Dr.

Cassidy said, you are effectively denying people vaccines.

We're not going to recommend a product for which there's no clinical data for that indication.

Is that what I should be doing?

What you should be doing is honoring your promise that you made when you were looking to get confirmed in this job.

You're going like that.

Like that is, you promised that you would not take away vaccines from anyone who wanted them.

He's not doing that.

You just changed the classification of the COVID vaccine.

I'm not taking them away from people, Senator.

Well, most Americans are going to be able to get it from their pharmacy for free.

Most Americans will be able to get it from their pharmacy for free.

The question is, everyone who wants it, that was your promise.

I never promised that I was going to recommend products with which there is no indication.

Wait, you said that.

And I know you've taken $855,000 from pharmaceutical companies like that.

Yes, I love that.

Pause it for just a second.

That is so great that he calls her out on the money she's received for her campaigns from pharmaceuticals.

Or he didn't even say it was from her campaign.

I mean, she might have just gotten into her bank account.

I don't know.

She may have.

But he's never promised that he would recommend that anybody can walk into a pharmacy and get this.

You don't have to recommend it.

I can go into my pharmacy today and get a booster shot if I want to, a COVID booster.

Oh, yeah.

I don't know why anybody would do it, but you can if you want to.

Believe me, the pharmacies are very good at reminding you.

Oh, my gosh.

They'll make the announcements in the store.

Hey, by the way, since you're here, you might as well stop in for a COVID boost.

Get your booster shot.

Get your booster, and then tomorrow come back for another one.

Thanks for calling.

I just want to check out my prescription.

Thanks for calling.

First, let me tell you that you should get 18 COVID shots.

Yeah.

I mean, I don't know why, again, I don't know why you would, but if you want to, you still can.

He's not saying that it won't be available to anybody, and he never promised that he would recommend it.

So let him go.

Did you hold up a big sign saying that you were lying when you said that?

Because you are the one who said you would not take them away.

She's leaving.

I'm not taking them away from that.

Secretary,

you want me to indicate a product for which there is no clinical data?

Senator.

Is that what you want?

Secretary Kennedy.

You said you wouldn't.

It is what you want.

Now you do.

I'm not taking them away.

Everybody can get access to them.

No, they can't walk into a pharmacy the way they could last month and get access to the past.

It depends on the state.

It depends on the state.

A year ago.

But they can still get it.

Everybody can get it.

Everybody can get it, Senator.

So look.

Who is clamoring for the shot?

Is anybody still clamoring

to get a booster shot after all the information that we've gathered since?

That's a good question.

And I should go in.

I usually haven't gone into a pharmacy in quite some time, but I should ask the pharmacist that.

Sure.

How many people are coming in?

What's their

day-to-day

people coming in getting the booster?

Supposedly, California is going through a little bit of an increase in COVID this summer.

Okay.

I think it's gone from, I don't know, 5% to 12% or something.

And so maybe in California, people want the booster.

I mean, I'm surprised they already haven't had it.

California.

I know.

I know.

And after all that we've heard about this thing in the last five years, all that has happened and the fact that the virus isn't killing people, really, anymore.

It's an illness.

It's an illness.

It's like the common cold.

You have underlying issues.

They need to be addressed.

Yeah.

But

it's not like it was in the beginning.

Correct.

So based on everything we've seen over the last five years, you still want to run in and get another booster shot of COVID vaccine?

Maybe some people do.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I mean,

I do see them online, obviously,

social media, but that's a very low number.

it's a very

you when you see them on social media talking about being boosted a are they telling the truth and b it's a very low number yeah I think it I think it probably is but they had more

vaccines I've seen the list for what's coming up next and that is the agenda for the next CDC vaccine panel And first up is ratifying your COVID actions.

Second is hepatitis B is on the agenda.

So should Americans expect you to take away hepatitis vaccine access as well, even though you promise not to?

As I said, I'm not taking vaccines away from anybody.

It's the same answer, right?

You're just going to deny that

you can't get vaccinated.

Because that's the answer.

You're not taking it away.

And let me ask you, is that the same game you're going to play with?

So you want me to recommend every product in the world

without any clinical trial data.

You can grew on your promises.

Yeah, my promise was to get...

A month ago, we could get COVID vaccines by just walking.

You can still get COVID vaccines.

You can still get it.

You can still get the COVID vaccines, and Medicare will still pay for them, and Medicaid will still be able to get it.

I tell the head of the CDC that if she refused to sign off on your changes to the childhood vaccine schedule,

that she had to resign.

I know.

No, I told her that she had to resign because I asked her, Are you a trustworthy person?

And she said no.

If you and employees

told you they weren't trustworthy, would you ask them to resign, sister?

Yes, I would.

So I'm sorry, but this is not what she has said publicly.

Oh, what a surprise.

I'm not surprised.

So we're saying she's lying.

Yes.

Yes.

Every conversation I had with her.

Let me get this straight.

This is the same person that less than a month earlier, you stood next to her and described her as unimpeachable, and you had full confidence in her and that you had full confidence in her scientific credentials.

And in a month, she became a liar?

Yeah, you should ask her what changed.

And by the way, a month ago, you were voting against her.

Because you thought she was either incompetent,

ineligible, or unsuited to the task.

I don't know how I started.

I was afraid she was going to bend the knee to you and Donald Trump.

And it looks like she didn't bend the knee.

So you fucked up.

So I guess you were wrong.

You were putting you America's baby's health at risk.

Oh, my gosh.

I can't hear any more from her.

Somebody, please, for the love of heaven, get her a COVID booster shot right now.

Stat, please, by all that is holy, get Elizabeth Warren a shot.

shot.

The media is peddling slop these days.

Better stay sharper.

What is that?

You might end up taking it on the chin.

Well, that's just nasty.

Glenn Beck is back in a sec.

Having a safety plan is essential.

If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm.

Start smarter.

Start less lethal.

Start with Burna.

The Burna launcher is the most effective self-defense tool available today without the legal, financial, or emotional consequence that come from using a gun.

I carry one myself.

I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna too.

I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just moved out on their own.

The new Burna Compact Launcher, it's the world's smallest, less lethal pistol.

It's concealable anywhere.

It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds, and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes.

It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack.

No background checks.

It's legal in all 50 states, ships straight to your door.

And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays, trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies.

It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal.

Visit BurnaBYRNA.com and find the right launcher for your family.

That's BurnaBYRNA.com.

Wow.

So

we're not even done with

the hearing.

Oh, the fireworks were off

throughout the hearings with RFK.

It was just amazing.

I think we might have time for RFK versus Bernie Sanders here.

Oh, yeah, Bernie just goes off.

Every single Republican, I don't mean to be political here, Mr.

Chairman, has received cap money from the pharmaceutical industry.

Are they all corrupt as well?

And I'm telling you, the American Heart Association has been co-opted by the freedom of...

Everybody but you, Senator.

But you know what?

When you ran for president, you know, we have a corrupt campaign finance system.

Maybe you'll agree with me on that.

Okay, you run for president, you got a billionaire behind it.

You received $300,000 from people, not from the industry, people in it, as I did, from individuals.

You corrupt.

President Trump got $3 million.

Every Republican got corporate PAC money for the pharmaceutical industry.

Democrats as well.

Everybody is corrupt, but you?

Is that what we're looking at?

I don't think so.

I don't even know what you're talking about.

Well, I think you do know what I'm talking about.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Are you saying the pharmaceutical industry was supporting my presidential campaign?

I don't think so.

No, I'm not saying that.

I don't think so either.

No, I don't think so.

I don't mean to be political.

Oh, man.

Oh, agonizing.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You know what I'm talking about.

No, no, I really don't.

Yes, you do.

Don't tell me what I know and what I don't.

Okay.

Glint me back.

All right, uh, radio show comes up in just a few seconds here.

Down the road where shadows hide, fill the dark on every side.

Stand your ground when times get tight.

Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.

Sweet!

Welcome.

It's Pat and Jeffy today for Glenn, 888-727-BECK.

We've got a lot to talk about.

I think we'll finish up on the RFK hearing yesterday.

America's health was at stake.

Thank you.

And so

he was accosted by several U.S.

senators.

And across the board.

I I mean, there were some Republicans that really weren't on his side either.

So, right?

Okay.

Yeah.

We'll share that and much more coming up in a minute.

Some days, pain just ruins your life.

It decides how long you sleep, what plans you cancel.

My doctor said to me years ago, they said, I'm not going to cut into your back until you beg me for it.

That was 20 years ago.

I'm absolutely to the point of begging now.

And there is some pain that nothing can touch.

But I'll tell you, Relief Factor has given me a long, long life away from pain in my back and especially this weird pain that I had in my hands that I couldn't even pick up a pencil.

I couldn't put my fingers around a pencil and write for more than a couple of sentences.

The pain was so bad.

All right, just to finish up on the hearing yesterday with RFK Jr., because there was a lot of fireworks.

It was fun.

It's fun because RFK doesn't just sit there and take it

and just listen to their nonsense.

Here he is with Senator Bill Cassidy.

That the COVID vaccine killed more people than COVID.

Wait, that was a statement.

I did not say that.

Okay, then let me ask, because you also were a little bit more.

Senator, I just want to make clear.

I think

that's a good question.

We'll check the record.

That's a question of fact.

You also said that you're also

lead attorney for the children's defense.

You engage in multiple lawsuits attempting to restrict access to the COVID vaccine.

Again, it surprises me that you think so highly of Operation Warp Speed when, as an attorney, you attempted to restrict access.

We all did.

I'm happy to explain why.

All right, go ahead.

I have three minutes and 30 seconds left.

It also surprises me.

Don't you love how he brings it up, but he doesn't have any time for you to address the issue.

I got no time for that.

Sorry, you guys want to get my little shot in and then we move on.

I don't know anybody who wasn't on board with Operation Warp Speed.

Absolutely.

Now, it was awesome.

We were excited.

Yes.

Okay.

You're developing a vaccine that usually takes 10 years in 10 months.

And we're going to do it.

We're going to have it available and it's going to kick the crap out of this disease that we're all scared of.

Okay.

Here's the thing: when you get the shot, you can't get the virus.

Right.

That's what it was all about.

That's what we were told.

Over.

This is 94 to 95% effective.

Yes.

It's safe.

It's effective.

We have a tad bit more information now.

Yeah, right.

Because that information wasn't really correct.

Because it was a lie.

It was all a lie.

It was from Pfizer and Moderna and whoever else.

Not being really correct means, well.

Yeah, it was a lie.

It was a lie.

Not correct.

Are you saying that she's lying?

Yes.

Because here's the thing.

They never did those tests.

We were the test subjects.

all of us.

Thank goodness I didn't participate in the test, but many did, and a lot of them paid for it.

Yeah.

So they didn't do any trials with people or animals or whatever.

And many of the trials were halted.

I mean, they started, they started them, and then they stopped them.

Right.

And we found all that out after the fact, way after the fact.

But they tricked us.

And but if it would have done what they said it was going to do without a bunch of side effects for a lot of people, it would have been great.

We'd still be in love with Operation Warp Speed.

And we had that massive study in Australia that we were all looking forward to to getting the information about it because they had thousands of participants that had taken the vaccine, and we were getting information about that.

Yet, they shut that down and all the information is going to be destroyed.

So don't worry about it.

It's incredible.

It is.

It's incredible.

It's incredible.

And I guess he has to answer to all of that.

But back to the

here.

It also surprises me because you've canceled, or HHA's did, but apparently under your direction, $500 million in contracts using the mRNA vaccine platform that was critical to Operation Warp Speed.

Again, an accomplishment that I think President Trump should get a Nobel Prize for.

You canceled $500 million in contracts.

Now,

I grew up in a middle-class family, so $500 million seems to cancel.

It seems like an incredible waste of money.

But it also seems like a commentary upon what the president was attempting, what the president did in Operation Warpsby, which is to create a platform by which to create vaccines.

So this just seems inconsistent that you would agree with me the president deserves a tremendous amount of credit for this.

Is this a question that it's asking, or is this a speech that you don't want me to ask?

I want to answer that question.

Please, please.

If it's a question.

But be tight, please, if you're a question.

First of all,

the reason that Operation Warp Speed was genius is it did something nobody had ever been done.

I don't think any president but President Trump could do it.

It got the vaccine to market that was perfectly matched to the virus at that time when it was badly needed.

Right.

Because there was low natural immunity and there were people getting very badly injured by COVID.

But he

was also brought in therapeutics like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin and protocols for treatments.

And there were no mandates.

And that's the problem.

I have another question, so please.

That's when I began litigating against President Biden's mandates.

Now,

sorry, let me go on.

And we have more information now about all the other stuff that you want to say.

Yeah, absolutely.

I don't know that Donald Trump needs a Nobel Peace Prize for the COVID vaccine warp speed, but sure, give him one.

If you're going to start throwing them out, go ahead.

But

absolutely, we just covered.

I mean, it was fantastic at the time, and we were all excited for it.

Yeah.

We've learned a few things since then, however.

Yeah, we were lied to.

We were misled.

And we were lied to.

And so, and we found out some things about the vaccine.

First of all,

not only was it not 94% effective, it was like 10% effective?

Was it even 10?

I don't even know.

I would venture to say that's not even true.

I don't think it was effective at all.

Because then we right.

Because then we found out that, you know, if we were told, you know, take it.

And I mean, we're just re-litigating the COVID, but take it and

you're not going to get it.

And then, oh, well,

probably going to get it.

It won't be as bad.

It won't be as bad.

And what you really need is a booster.

Yeah.

And you just keep getting these boosters.

And then if you get it, it won't be that bad.

It's just,

yeah,

I don't know that they're effective at all.

And in some cases, they were quite harmful to people.

Yeah.

I don't know how many

young people dropped dead after receiving the vaccine, but it was a substantial amount.

It really was.

And then people with other side effects and, you know, the inflamed hearts and all the things that happened, and you're going to ignore all of that, Bill Cassidy?

And the long-range health effects that happen,

that are now happening to people.

And if you say, oh, well,

were you vaxxed?

You're looked at like you're out of your mind.

But no, we were told when they started having all these symptoms from some other professionals that were shunned, by the way, and shut down from being heard on most social media platforms,

were saying, no, it's in five to six, seven years, there's going to be an even bigger problem.

with this mRNA shot.

And we're seeing the fruits of that now.

Yes, we are.

But we can't, I mean, can we say anything?

Is there anything to back that up?

Not really.

Just things that we know.

I mean, things that we think we know.

Circumstantial evidence.

I will say this.

Giorgio Armani just died yesterday.

Thank you.

Five years from the vaccine.

That's right.

Struck down in the prime of life.

He was only 91.

Who knows what happened there?

I know.

Was it the vaccine?

I know.

We don't know.

We don't know.

We don't know.

We don't know, but we lost a bit of vaccine.

They won't tell us.

They haven't told us what the cause of death death was

tell us.

They're keeping that quiet.

I know.

I mean, a massive designer like Giorgio Armani dies, and we don't even hear the cause of death.

That was a legend.

Something was a legend.

Something's up with that.

Okay.

So that's all we're saying.

Rest in peace, Giorgio.

Yeah.

Yeah, he had many years to he had quite a run.

He did, man.

He had quite a run, man.

Yeah, he really did.

But

that

just another

example of the circus that is these hearings over here in the Senate.

I mean, that's incredible.

Just an opportunity for Democrats and even Republicans like Bill Cassidy to attack

RFK Jr.

because

why?

He's not in favor of every vaccine that you want to put into people's bodies

and mandates.

You want to mandate it to people?

What happened to my body, my choice to these people?

That was his big problem, which he stated was that, you know, yeah, I was litigating against it because of the mandates.

Yeah.

That's why a lot of us were litigating against it.

Yes.

If you wanted to get the vaccine, I don't have any problem with that.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

Wear the mask.

Get the vaccine.

Do whatever you do.

I just didn't want to be part of it.

Yeah.

Right.

I know.

Right.

And they,

not having that, there were plenty of companies that

are,

well, if it comes out that they were all in lockstep, I mean, it's going to cost them a lot of money.

So they're all continuing with the, well, we were fine.

Yeah, we had a mandate, but we got rid of it.

We were fine, and everything is fine.

Okay.

It wasn't so fine at the time.

No, it was not.

Where you lost your job

if you wouldn't succumb to the vaccine.

We didn't mandate it.

We just told people that they couldn't have a job with us if they didn't get it.

right.

What are you talking about?

You can go somewhere else and work.

Yeah, we weren't stopping you from working.

Unbelievable.

It's incredible.

And I will say

on my ex-account, Jeffy JFR, a good point comes up commenting about the vaccines.

You know, we talked about getting rid of all these vaccines and the kids getting 76

shots by the time they're, I don't know how old they were, six or seven or something.

Yeah, by the time they're done with all the shots.

So, and they all have been individually, right?

So what they're really concerned about.

They're 76.

That sure is.

But individually, you know, they've probably been tested other than the mRNA ones and have been found to be, you know, okay, right?

But

together.

Good point.

It was asked, you know, but have they tested all the shots combined?

Well, that's

a good point.

That is a good point and a good question to have because it isn't just the one shot.

The oya woo, that one, the mumps one, got to have that one.

The measles shot, got to have that one.

There is no way they tested them all together.

There's no way that's ever happened.

Well, we're getting the test results by doing it, right?

Same thing we did with the COVID.

Right.

Wow.

That would be interesting to do

a test on the 76 shots people get combined.

Right.

And then see if that's a toxic mixture of some sort.

Huh.

Interesting.

I know.

All right.

888-727-BECK.

More coming up in one minute.

After joining the U.S.

Army, Thomas Kennedy served two tours of duty in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, and he earned dozens of awards and service medals throughout his honorable career.

But while he was deployed in eastern Afghanistan, this soldier's life was tragically snuffed out.

Thomas was killed by a Taliban suicide bomber.

He left behind his wife, Cami, and their beautiful twins, Maggie and Brody, who were just weeks shy of their second birthday when they lost their dad.

But because of friends like you, Cami and her children didn't just face their loss alone.

Tunnelled Towers provided their family with a mortgage-free home.

You and other caring friends helped them step in and offer a ray of hope to Cami, Maggie, and Brody.

Families like the Kennedys, who have sacrificed so much for us and our nation, need your help now more than ever.

Please donate $11 a month to tunneledtowers at t2t.org.

That's tthenumber2t.org.

All right.

Welcome.

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn Today, triple eight seven two seven BECK.

The Justice Department.

See how you feel about this.

How does this hit you?

The Justice Department is discussing proposals to potentially block transgender Americans from buying firearms.

Whoa.

In the wake of the deadly Minneapolis Catholic Church shooting conducted by

a transgender person,

DOJ officials are mulling options the Trump administration can take to restrict the Second Amendment rights of some Americans.

Some DOJ members believe the move can be approved as a follow-up on Trump's executive order barring military service by transgender people.

One option could see President Trump formally declare that people who identify as transgender are mentally ill and are not legally allowed to possess firearms.

It's going to have to be the mental issue, the mental illness issue.

Right.

Yeah, I guess.

But just a blanket ban on transgendered people owning guns.

I think that's Trump speak, though, right?

That's going to have to be if you, if you have a

mental problem that has been documented.

But is transgenderism that mental problem?

Well, that's what what I'm saying.

He's going to stamp at that.

Yes.

I don't think I agree with just a blanket statement on all transgender people.

Really?

You don't think that it's a mental illness?

It doesn't seem constitutional to me.

Don't bug me down with your little constitution thing.

We're not worried about that right now.

We're not worried about that right now.

That's the problem.

We're not worried about that right now.

That's why we are where

Where we are.

We haven't been worried about that for some time.

For sure.

I mean,

we have sitting

senators that don't even know where we came from

in this country.

Yeah, we talked about this yesterday, the Tim Kaine thing.

Unbelievable.

That's incredible.

I mean, unbelievable.

Yeah.

Where our rights, he didn't know.

Do we have that?

Just a little reminder.

The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't come from the government.

government,

but come from the creator.

That's what the Iranian government believes.

It's a democratic regime

that bases its rule on Shia law and targets Sunnis, Baha'is, Jews, Christians, and other religious minorities.

And they do it because they believe that they understand what natural rights are from their creator.

So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.

it?

It's extremely troubling.

So to him, the Declaration of Independence would be extremely troubling.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.

And then it describes, among these, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Where are you getting this from?

Something called the

Declaration of Independence.

Huh.

That's something to do with the United States of America.

It has something to do with, yeah.

And it was written by a Virginian, you know, like Tim Tim Kaine.

Not like

Tim Cain, only in that they come from the same state.

That's not it.

Very unlike Tim Cain in every other way.

I mean, what a moron.

But that is our problem.

Yes, we're, you know, that pesky constitution, that pesky document that says our rights come from God, so they can't be taken from us by men and governments.

And all that gets you back to, so, is

being identified as a trans individual, a mental illness, and then that precludes you from getting a weapon.

Exactly.

Now, we've discussed the fact that not knowing whether you're male or female or being confused by that is a mental issue.

But does that mean you're violent?

Does that mean you shouldn't own a gun?

I don't know.

That's a tough one.

That's a really tough one.

That's a tough one.

That's a really tough one.

The whole mental illness issue.

Who decides?

Who gets to decide that?

Well, I mean, we have to leave that to the professionals, right?

Right.

And we have to trust that the professionals.

We leave it to

Bill Cassidy.

Yeah, we do.

Yes.

So it's dangerous stuff.

Yeah.

It's dangerous.

I don't know.

That's really hard.

Because, you know, now you're getting...

Are you just a little trans?

Are you a whole bunch trans?

Are you all the way?

If you're all the way trans, you for sure don't even get a knife.

But if you're just a little bit trans,

I mean, it's

we can't allow you even a steak knife at that point.

Not if you're all the way trans.

No, right.

No, no, no, no.

So

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't agree with that.

But it is a very difficult because we've seen a lot of these shootings from trans people.

Yeah, we have.

And even the it's a disproportionate number to their population.

No question.

And if this, so, you know, obviously

white males

have gotten a lot of heat and

have mental issues.

Yes, of course they do.

Of course they do.

And that's why they're doing, that's why they're committing the act that they're committing.

Yes.

I think it takes a mental problem.

I think you're disturbed mentally if you're willing to kill

a number of people.

Anybody.

Does everyone have to have a checkoff from a psychiatrist or a psychologist in order to get a weapon?

And the answer to that is no.

I would say no to that.

You can't do it.

Yeah.

So what do you do in order to stop these mass shootings?

It's really a tough.

I don't know.

I don't.

I honestly, I don't know.

I don't really want to be tasked with the idea.

You tell me what your idea is, and I'll tell you if I like it or not.

That's what we're here for.

Thank you.

Not to make the rules, but we're here to comment on them.

Yeah, I don't want to.

And I like it that way.

If you say, hey, Jeff, it's up to you.

Well, then, okay, but you're going to have to live by it then.

You have to live by what I decide.

And we don't want that.

I promise you, we don't want that.

This is Glenn Beck.

Cozy Earth products bring next level comfort that shows up day in and day out.

Let's talk about their bamboo joggers first.

They're seriously buttery soft.

I didn't know joggers could feel like this, not like I'm jogging or anything, but I can wear them at home, you can stroll on the beach, even on flights, and they never lose their shape.

And the comfort stays consistent no matter where you go.

They'll totally redefine how you lounge and live.

Now the everywhere pant.

It lives up to its name.

It's lightweight, it's breathable, incredibly flexible, and yet still polished enough to wear out.

You can run errands, catch a movie, pretty much everywhere else.

You can take them and wear them and they look great and they move with you and always look sharp.

And my favorite part is how Cozy Earth nails balance between unmatched comfort and everyday function.

They're game changers, and it's not just me, everybody I know who's tried Cozy Earth is completely hooked.

Glenn's newsletter exists.

Sign up at Glennbeck.com.

It's Pat and Jeffrey for Glenn.

And Jeff Fisher has

the Fat Five.

All right, yeah, the two of the Fat Fat Five.

Let's do it.

Yeah, absolutely.

Let's start with there's a couple of recalls you probably need to be concerned about.

Take a look at your egg cartons.

The Centers for Disease Control and state authorities and the FDA are looking to investigate an outbreak of salmonella.

Why does this happen so often?

Not necessarily salmonella, but there's been a lot of recalls.

Seems to be a lot of records.

A lot of recalls, a lot of items, a lot of recalls.

Especially

I don't know.

I don't don't know.

But it's good that we have the CDC and the FDA and every other government agency looking after us.

Yeah, because they're brilliant.

Absolutely.

They're so good.

This salmonella outbreak, 95 people have been affected so far across 14 states.

Sue.

Indian, Texas?

No.

Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Minnesota, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington.

That's bad for those people.

18 people have been hospitalized.

So far, fortunately, no one has died.

They traced it back to the Country Eggs LLC,

which is this company in California, this Country Eggs LLC in

Lucerne, California.

All right, Lucerne.

Lucerne.

Lucerne, yeah.

So these are Lucerne eggs?

Yeah.

And so, you know, check them out.

Just be careful.

If you find yourself with

the symptoms of diarrhea, believe me, you'll know what those symptoms are.

Check with your medical expert to find out if it's actually true.

And then there's also pressure washers being recalled.

780,000 pressure washers

that were sold at retailers like Home Depot across U.S.

and Canada due to a projectile hazard that has resulted in fractures and other injuries among some consumers.

So according to the recall notice,

this outdoor, the TTI outdoor power equipment is recalling certain models of their Ryobi-branded electric pressure washers because the product's capacitor can overheat and burst, causing parts to forcefully be ejected.

So that seems to pose a serious impact risk to buy standards.

You think?

That's a real problem.

Their solution is.

That's a real problem.

So there's been 41 reports of explosions.

32 people have been injured.

Stop using it.

If you have, go to their website, see if you have

the model numbers are correct.

If they're correct, stop using them because you don't want that thing to explode.

And then you just take it back to the dealer and you get a new one, right?

Well, according to the website, you just log on and what you do is if you have one of those power washers, you stop using it immediately.

Okay.

And then you put in your information and they'll send you back a refund, a full refund.

A free repair kit.

To repair it.

A free repair kit.

I have to fix it myself.

It includes a replacement capacitor.

What are you complaining about?

I'm not doing that.

Are you kidding me?

I'm taking it back to the dealer for a full refund.

That's what I'm doing.

Well, you know, maybe that's what I'm doing.

Even after that.

Or a brand new unit

that didn't come from

you.

Wow.

That's ridiculous.

Really, they're expecting people to repair this themselves?

This is kind of a new thing.

I think it is, because

not long ago, another company was doing this.

Gosh, I don't know who was it.

But it's kind of a, it seems to me, and maybe it's not, but it seems to me it's kind of a new thing that they're like, yeah, just send them the new parts.

They'll fix it.

No.

No.

No.

I bought your product.

I want it to work.

If it doesn't work,

you need to provide me someone to fix it.

Right.

So, I mean, that's like...

It's like when you have a car

recall.

You don't take it back and they give you a part and say, go home and fix this.

But I think they might do that.

They might start doing that, right?

Wow.

They might say, okay, yeah, you know what you need is a new axle.

So here's your axle.

We're going to Amazon you over an axle.

Go ahead and put that on.

But not here.

We can't do it over that.

In your driveway at home.

Go ahead.

If it wasn't part of the recall, we could do it for you.

But it's part of the recall, so we can't do it for you.

Sorry.

Luigi Mangioni, you remember him?

The man accused of killing the United Healthcare CEO, Brian Thompson.

Yep.

In New York City, he's currently being held without bail at the Brooklyn Detention Center, right beside Diddy and Harvey Weinstein, I believe.

Anyway, Sheehan, the online fast fashion retailer, has removed a listing for a men's short-sleeve shirt after discovering that a third-party vendor was using his likeness to move the merchandise.

And so the product listing, which is no longer active, by the way, you don't have to, you can relax, featured an image that appeared to show a man resembling Mangioni modeling a men's new spring-summer short-sleeve blue Ditzy floral white shirt.

And it was unclear how the image was created.

I don't know if we have, I sent him the picture, I don't know if we actually have it.

So he didn't model for it.

He did not.

He did not.

And it's an AI version that kind of looks similar to him.

It looks very much like him.

It does.

But I mean, that's a tough call.

All right.

I mean, I know the companies, we've got stuff, strict standards, and we're conducting a thorough investigation.

Of course, it's a third-party

vendor, so it's not us.

She is like, it's not us.

And they're conducting a thorough investigation.

But that's a tough call, right?

So you can't even, if

it was legitimately meant to be that, I guess that's a problem, I guess.

But if it's just another model that kind of looks like him, so now we're saying that guy can't work anymore.

Well, and he needs to go to prison.

Okay.

He looks like a killer.

You need to be in jail.

Okay.

Right?

I mean, I think we can all agree on that.

Okay.

You know what?

Yes.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

Fine.

No problem.

Don't do it again.

Problem solved.

Don't do it again.

Right.

So Americans are now saying they have

to do too much labor.

According to a Wall Street Journal,

NOAAC, N-O-R-C poll, found that 70% of respondents said the belief that working hard will get you ahead is either no longer true or was never true.

That's the highest share in 15 years.

Not to mention only 25% think they can actually climb the ladder and improve their standard of living.

That's the lowest since 1987.

And roughly 78% of the folks don't expect their kids to be better off than they are.

Wow.

Wow.

Really sad.

The pessimism cuts across age, income, education, and gender.

Republicans have a more positive outlook on the economy than Democrats.

There's a surprise.

One small bright spot, 44% of those polled, rated the economy as excellent or good, which is up from last year.

And the Wall Street Journal said that the sentiment held true for many demographics, people with college degrees, people without college degrees, households making over $100,000 annually.

They quoted an Army veteran in here and an attorney, a 30-year-old Army veteran and an attorney.

They quoted him saying, there's limits to what hard work can actually bring people these days.

Oh, wow.

Nobody wants to work anymore, Pat.

No, nobody wants to work anymore.

That's right.

Did you see the poll, though, that showed President Trump at 55% approval rating?

That came out, I think, yesterday.

55%.

Is that good?

That's really good for him.

Okay.

That's the highest ever.

Okay.

The highest ever.

I think in any poll.

It should be, but it's not.

But, you know, because Democrats take him so bad.

He's beating every day, man.

He sure does.

He sure does.

That's for sure.

So to be at 55%

with the beating he takes in the media, that's like 75% to anybody else.

That's for sure.

Yeah, pretty amazing.

Because that man can't do anything.

No.

In fact, he can't do anything now because he's dead, right?

No.

It turns out he's not.

Oh.

Yeah.

Oh, it turns out he's not.

Because you didn't see him for two days, so obviously.

I was told that the first thing you do is assume he's dead.

He's already dead.

Yeah, right.

So ridiculous.

That is absolutely ridiculous.

Newsmax.

Newsmax is suing Fox News.

I saw that.

Alleging the network has illegally cornered the market on viewership among conservatives.

In a lawsuit filed in Florida, Newsmax attorneys argue Fox has long engaged in an exclusionary scheme to increase and maintain its dominance in the market for U.S.

right-leaning pay-TV news, resulting in suppression of of competition in that market that harms consumers, competition, and Newsmax.

Fox leverages this market power to coerce distributors into not caring or into marginalizing other right-leaning news channels, including Newsmax.

So in a statement, Fox News did respond saying they can't sue their way out of their own competitive failures in a marketplace to chase headlines simply because they can't attract viewers.

Good luck.

Nice.

Good luck.

You know, I'm not a huge Fox fan.

I mean, they're fine.

Yeah, I mean, they're the channel.

I mean,

they're the channel.

Of course, they try to do what they can to beat their competitor and to keep them off

being distributed war widely.

Everybody tries to do that.

Everybody.

They can't control what the distributors do, though.

They just make a proposal.

All right,

if you add them, you're going to lose up.

They're negotiating the deal, right?

Right.

Yeah.

Right.

So they negotiate the deal.

The distributor agrees to it.

And we're done.

Sorry.

Have a nice day.

Yeah.

Negotiate your own deal.

I don't know how you get away with that.

Yeah, I don't know either.

I don't know the answer to that either.

Okay, well, one more here in the Fat Five.

Something you can ponder for the weekend, Pat.

Okay.

I've been pondering this for a couple days now.

All right.

Earth.

Where did the name come from?

Unlike every other planet in our solar system.

Oh, yeah.

Earth doesn't have a clear origin for its name.

It traces back to some old English or Germanic erd, meaning ground or soil, but no one knows who first used it to describe our planet or why it stuck.

Because Mars, Venus, and Jupiter named after Roman gods, we don't have any Earth doesn't know, no known mythology, astronomer, or empire behind it.

So it remains a mystery

where the planet Earth, that name came from.

I've never thought of that really.

Well, that's why I was pondering it the last couple of days.

And I'm letting you go ahead and ponder it this weekend while you're sitting there watching the football.

Yeah.

Think about it.

Or

watching the MTV Music Video Awards or listening to the new Justin Bieber album that just got released today.

No.

Or watching Walter Dean.

Probably Darrell Dixon or NFL.

You can ponder.

Earth.

Earth.

Where did that name come from?

You're welcome.

You're welcome.

Yeah, thanks.

Appreciate it.

Ain't no snake oil here.

Just truth, grit, and good old-fashioned common sense.

This is Glenn Beck.

Having a safety plan is essential.

If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm.

Start smarter.

Start less lethal.

Start with Burna.

The Burna launcher is the most effective self-defense tool available today without the legal, financial, or emotional consequence that come from using a gun.

I carry one myself.

I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna too.

I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just moved out on their own.

The new Burna Compact Launcher, it's the world's smallest, less lethal pistol.

It's concealable anywhere.

It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds, and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes.

It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack.

No background checks.

It's legal in all 50 states.

Ships straight to your door.

And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays, trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies.

It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal.

Visit BurnaByRNA.com and find the right launcher for your family.

That's BurnaByRNA.com.

Hello and welcome.

Hello.

We're busy.

Yeah.

We were in the middle of a conversation.

We got stuff going on.

Yeah.

Okay.

So welcome to the broadcast.

I love this.

I love this little clip from Tim Burchett.

I don't know who this person is interviewing him,

but

I don't know.

MSNBC, CNN, somebody.

I guess.

I mean, it looked like they were in some closet.

I'm not quite sure where it was.

It did.

It did look like a hotel.

Let's just go in here and talk.

Yeah.

Okay.

But the interviewer accosts him on pronouncing, mispronouncing Kamalism.

Oh, yes.

Yeah.

And

here's how that goes.

Vice president pronounces her first name, Kamala.

You mispronounce it.

Do you do that on purpose?

No, ma'am.

I don't know how she pronounces it.

I've never, this is the first time anybody's ever, ever told me that.

How did I say it?

You said Kamala, and it's Kamala.

Kamala, okay.

Well, my last name's Burchett, and I dare say nobody's ever, John Hannity's never, it would never, didn't even get my name right when I was on there, and I don't pitch a fit.

So it's Kamala.

I love that.

Okay, then I will.

I stand corrected.

I love that.

And I didn't pitch it for you.

Why were we thinking about him, though?

Was he in one of these hearings or something?

Because all of a sudden,

we were thinking about him and his...

This is not the one I was, the interview I was thinking of.

We talked about him earlier today on

a physical altercation

with a protester yesterday.

That's why his name came up.

So he's busy out fighting people on the streets over name-calling, right?

Right.

It was a brutal battle.

A demonstrator approached Burchett with criticism on the handling of the war in Gaza and then

later on bumped into him.

You cannot have that.

You can't have that.

Tim Burchett or Burchett will not stand for that.

Tim Burchett pushed the guy back.

Oh, nice.

Uh-huh.

And that was the end of it.

It didn't turn out to be a bloodbath.

Nobody.

That was it.

Nobody

punched anybody else in the face.

So nothing could happen.

But the guy ran into a sitting congressperson.

We can't have that.

Yes, yes.

And it did hack off Tim Burchett's people.

I haven't heard Burchett talk about it

yet.

But his people did.

That's why his name came up.

So we were thinking about the name of the Kamala thing.

Yes, that's right.

Right.

So great.

And they did make a big deal out of that.

The Kamala thing.

Yeah, they did.

Because if you mispronounce it, if you said Kamala, that was somehow racist.

That was a dog whistle.

Yeah, it is.

A dog whistle to racism.

Right.

That's what it was.

Exactly.

Yeah.

Which is weird because humans don't hear dog whistles.

So I don't know how that would be a problem to anybody.

If it's a dog whistle, nobody heard it.

Don't even worry about it then.

Except dogs.

Dogs heard it, but who cares?

They're not going to talk about it.

If they are, we don't know what they're saying.

So

let's move on from that.

It's just, it's ridiculous how people get carried away with how people pitch your fat if you mispronounce her name.

Yes, they do.

They don't care about anyone else, though.

How is that, how is mispronouncing someone's name a racist act?

I know exactly.

I actually don't.

You do.

I don't.

No, I don't.

Yeah, I don't.

No, you do.

I really don't.

Yeah, okay.

Maybe you can explain it to me off the air.

All right, more coming up.

This is Glenn Beck.

Jeffy's okay with all of that.

I mean, he didn't technically threaten anyone.

So just having brass knuckles and a sword, that's not a crime right no sorry to sorry to interrupt your day with my brass knuckles is that illegal did he hit anybody with them thank you thank you carrying him in his trunk he's got weapons in his trunk i suppose he was trans so we get to take everything away is that it's that what we're doing

holy cow uh-huh i mean he didn't harm anyone no He didn't legitimately harm anyone.

Sounds like he's about to, does it not?

Oh, and so we're doing pre-crime.

We're doing doing pre-crime now.

All right.

Yeah.

Did good.

I'm glad he's off the streets.

You and Hillary are right.

Exactly.

I'm glad he's off the streets.

You saw how well pre-crime went, right?

They got rid of murder

in D.C.

completely.

It worked out really well.

Really, really well.

For a while, anyway.

Down the road where shadows hide, Feel the dark on every side.

Stand your ground when times get dark.

Gotta face the dark and embrace the fire.

The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

Did you see the federal judges that got together anonymously and whined about the Supreme Court?

Geez.

We'll share some of their powerful thoughts

coming up in one minute.

Cozy Earth products bring next level comfort that shows up day in and day out.

So after U.S.

Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch

wrote a searing criticism of a federal judge for defying precedent when the jurist halted the Trump administration's grant slashes at the National Institutes of Health,

Federal judges, named and unnamed, are airing their grievances now in a scene of unusual pushback to the U.S.

Supreme Court.

The controversy mostly stems from Neil Gorsuch writing on August 21st as SCOTUS in an emergency order granted the government a stay of a lower court's vacating of the termination of nearly $800 million in federal in various research-related grants.

Okay, do you remember that?

I think the Trump administration was cutting off grants to certain projects.

Yes, absolutely, yes.

$800 million worth.

And the lower court said they stopped that.

Yeah, he has to give them the money.

And then the Supreme Court put a stay on their stoppage.

So.

They're unhappy about it.

They are unhappy about it.

Here's what Gorsuch said.

Lower court judges may sometimes disagree with the court's decision, the Supreme Court, obviously, but they are never free to defy them.

Thank you.

Right.

Thank you.

Exactly.

In that case, Gorsuch explained this court granted a stay because it found the government likely to prevail in showing that the district court lacked jurisdiction to order the government to pay grant obligations because such contractual claims belonged in the U.S.

Court of Federal Claims, not in district court under the Administrative Procedure Act.

But according to Gorsuch,

rather than follow that direction, they permitted a suit involving materially identical grants to proceed to final judgment under the APA and so on and so forth.

So anyway, these lower court judges got together mostly anonymously.

Just to whine with the NBC.

The NBC, just to complain.

about the Supreme Court.

Yes.

So this is just a private little Zoom call that somebody snuck into.

Nope.

Several judges spoke anonymously to NBC News due to concerns about publicly criticizing the justices.

Well, if you're not supposed to do it, then don't do it.

But they did.

Of course.

One of them said.

It's okay because they hate Trump.

Right.

Yes.

So that makes everything fine.

It is inexcusable.

They don't have our backs.

One judge also mentioned receiving death threats for rulings against Trump.

You know what?

I'd like to see that.

Yeah, I I would too.

I would too.

Plus, it is not the Supreme Court's job to have federal court lower courts' backs.

It is the Supreme Court's job to have the back of the U.S.

Constitution.

That's what they're supposed to rule on.

Is it constitutional or isn't it?

Right.

That's what they rule on.

And if it is, and it goes against the way you ruled, then you go wrong.

Yeah, right.

Move on.

Exactly.

Another said, it's almost like the Supreme Court is saying it is a judicial coup.

Well, yeah, because that's what it is like.

This is a judicial coup that is happening right now, trying to stop everything the president of the United States has been trying to do.

Yeah.

Another said, lower court judges are frustrated because the rulings were so brief they couldn't take direction from them.

Still another, the Supreme Court is forcing lower court judges to decipher meaning from Supreme Court decisions as if they're the Rosetta Stone.

You know, they kind of are judicially.

Yeah, I thought that they were, actually.

These activist judges, which we've seen in action over the last

four to eight to ten years, for sure, maybe longer, but for sure they've come to fruition in the last four to eight years,

think that they're the ones that rule.

Yeah, exactly.

Exactly.

And that's how they're acting.

For the most part, they are, sadly.

But for the most part, they are.

But from time to time,

because for the most part they are, when they get their hands slapped, they don't like it.

Oh, no, they do not.

No, they do not.

And these, I mean, district courts in some cases are making nationwide rulings.

That's the problem.

You can't do that.

That's the problem.

You can't do that.

You've got no jurisdiction.

And thanks to, really, thanks to social media and

places like The Blaze and this program, the Glenbeck Radio program, and Pat Gray Unleashed,

those things get light shone on them now instead of just sitting there saying, well, how did that happen?

Now we know how it happened.

And we find out that, you know what, you don't shouldn't be doing that.

They're Judge Dingleberry from some small court.

Judge Dingleberry in particular has been a problem.

He's been a problem for a while.

This is nothing new for Judge Dingleberry.

He's been a problem for a while.

But listen to this.

This amazes me more than any of the rest because this was said by an Obama-appointed judge.

Listen to this.

Who actually told the truth?

One judge acknowledged that some lower courts might be overstepping, saying

the whole Trump derangement syndrome is a real issue.

Yeah.

As a result, judges are mad at what Trump is doing and are sometimes forgetting to stay in their lane.

That was from an Obama judge, an Obama appointed judge.

That's incredible.

That is.

It sounds like that's a judge that's a judge.

Yeah, doesn't it, though?

Which you don't expect anymore.

No, you don't.

You just don't expect something like that.

So when it happens, you're like, okay, did NBC make that up?

Or

how did that happen?

Because I don't understand.

Yeah, and why are these judges

speaking anonymously?

You just tell them to no comment.

Right.

You're a federal judge.

Yeah.

Stop your whining.

Right.

Stop your belly aching about the U.S.

Supreme Court because you're not a Supreme Court justice yourself.

Really, that's it.

And you're jealous and you want more power.

And sorry, you don't have it.

I want more power even though I'm a federal judge.

Yeah, right.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

Calm down, Judge Dickleberry.

We got you, bro.

Again, with Judge Dickleberry.

Dang it.

Starting to tick me off, actually.

Also,

we have the city of D.C.

suing Donald Trump over the National Guard troops.

Oh, wow.

Isn't that wonderful?

I thought they liked it.

That was their deal.

Didn't D.C.'s mayor just

thank them for it, right?

And the citizens certainly are.

So what the

commission or the city council or the district council or whatever they're going to, they're unhappy with it.

Okay.

So they filed a lawsuit against President Trump and the military over the deployment of the National Guard in the nation's capital.

According to the suit, Donald Trump has run roughshod over a fundamental tenet of American democracy.

We don't have a democracy, by the way.

You can't run roughshod.

No, it's impossible to run roughshod over something that isn't there.

But the military should not be involved in domestic law enforcement.

The suit follows a ruling from a federal judge in California this week who found that the Trump administration violated posse covertatis.

That's how people say it when they call and bring it up.

Posse copper titus.

You have to say it that way because that's the way the callers will say it when they call to complain about posse copper titus being violated.

That bars the use of soldiers for civilian law enforcement activities, of course, but against American citizens.

So they're continually screaming about posse copper

when it doesn't apply.

Now, does it apply in Washington, D.C.?

I don't know.

I guess the judge will rule on that.

I mean, they've extended them right now to November 30th.

The National Guard is going to be in D.C.

until November 30th.

They've all signed off on it.

Okay.

All right.

I mean, that's a little longer than I'd like to see it happen.

Well, we're waiting for another city to go and to make safe, make a safe city, right?

We don't know which one that is yet, whether it's Baltimore or Chicago.

If it's New Orleans and the governor invited

Trump to send National Guard troops in, there, and he's doing that the right way, then that's great.

I wouldn't have a problem with that.

When you're sending it against the wishes of, say,

the state's governor, then it can be problematic.

So, I don't know.

We'll see.

This will all be ruled on, I guess.

And then the federal judges will will whine about whatever decision the Supreme Court reaches.

But, you know, while all this is going on, people have to suffer through crime, Pat.

So we need to get them taken care of.

We need to get people.

People need to be safe.

They need to have good parks to play in.

Yes.

They need to have clean streets.

They need to walk up and down the street without fear.

Have we ever found out what they did with all the homeless people?

Or do we just...

I haven't heard.

I thought we were...

I mean, we just got rid of them.

They got them all homeless.

They got them all.

Did we get them outside of the district?

I mean, we just pushed them outside the line, and that's where they're at now?

I have not heard, but they wound up.

Last I heard was like 43 homeless camps.

They

eliminated.

That's quite a few people.

Yeah.

That's quite a few people.

Probably.

We're supposed to care.

So,

okay, so let's care.

But caring is what?

Just chipping them to the city line and saying, have a nice day?

No, I think.

Good luck, God bless.

Hopefully they're in homeless shelters.

I would like to think that they moved them on to homeless shelters.

Okay.

Those shelters were there before they were living on the streets.

Yes, but maybe they've been strongly encouraged to use the shelters

rather than a tent city set up in downtown D.C.

A little bit better.

We're not doing that anymore.

No.

No, we're not doing that anymore.

At least until after November 30th.

Exactly.

You know, and I mean, it has worked in D.C., right?

It's lowered the violent crime rate.

Yeah.

That's for sure.

Violent crime, I heard a statistic yesterday,

down 48%.

Murder was down 100% for a while, but I think they wound up having one.

Some of those numbers seem like they should be higher.

You know, I mean, we've got National Guard wandering around and police wandering around, and

I feel like it should be closer to 100.

You know, I was was on Sarah Gonzalez's show yesterday, and we were talking about the fact that

of all the arrests that have taken place in Washington, D.C.,

how many of those were made by the National Guard that's been deployed there?

Okay.

Do you know the percentage

because it's zero?

None.

No arrests.

That's made up.

They're out there arresting people, dragging people.

They're disappearing people.

That's what's happening.

That's what you're led to believe.

But the National Guard is just a presence on the streets.

And that,

I think, discourages

in and of itself.

It's a deterrent.

It's just the presence that has made this incredible impression on people.

Okay.

So it's kind of interesting

because they're not making arrests.

Even though

they talk about thousands of arrests,

but none of them by the National Guard.

Until the police show up to arrest them.

They don't actually arrest them.

They just detain them until they get arrested.

Apparently.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

I mean, I'm sure they're exactly.

That guy just committed a crime.

We can't arrest him, so let him go.

I'm sure that's not happening.

No.

No, but I'm sure that they're involved in some way as they wait for the officers to arrive and make the arrest.

But it's interesting because you would think that they're the ones who are enforcing it.

And they kind of are.

No, they're not.

But they kind of.

No, they're kind of not.

They kind of.

No, because then you've got...

Pashi Catta Chat.

I know, but they're getting around that by just,

we're not arresting you.

We're just

detaining you for a second until someone's going to come here and arrest you.

What we're doing is.

They kinda are.

What we're doing really is hanging out with you for a few minutes.

We're just hanging out on the street.

We're hanging out here.

That's all we're doing.

Oh, look, here comes some police now.

Oh, hey, okay.

We're not going to hang out with you anymore.

Hey, yeah, this guy.

You're going to hang out with this officer now.

All right.

More coming up in one minute.

Having a safety plan is essential.

If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm.

Start smarter.

Start less lethal.

Start with Burna.

The Burna launcher is the most effective self-defense tool available today without the legal, financial, or emotional consequence that comes from using a gun.

I carry one myself.

I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna too.

I just gave one to my son and my daughter, who just moved out on their own.

The new Burna Compact Launcher, it's the world's smallest, less lethal pistol.

It's concealable anywhere.

It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds, and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes.

It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack.

No background checks.

It's legal in all 50 states, shipped straight to your door.

And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays, trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies.

It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal.

Visit burnabyrna.com and find the right launcher for your family.

That's burnupbyrna.com.

Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher for Glenn Today, and Stu, who's also on vacation right now.

When is he not?

That's the question.

That's the good question right there.

Is he not?

And he's going to be even more obnoxious because his Philadelphia Eagles won one last night.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's true.

It just beat the Cowboys 24-20.

Game was delayed by weather.

Big surprise.

Why every stadium should be domed in the NFL?

Ridiculous.

It makes my case.

It makes my case.

The first game of the NFL season in 2020 makes my case.

How long was every stadium?

I don't know.

Due to lightning.

It was like an hour and a half, two hours.

Oh, was it that long?

Oh, wow.

I completely forgot about the game, so I didn't see it.

Domed.

We'd be going, the games are worth way too much money to be worried about weather.

Well, yeah, to the networks, to the NFL, to everybody.

To the humans, all of it.

It didn't used to be, though.

It tells you how much society's changed.

We didn't used to have delays indoor or outdoor.

No, we did not.

Because of lightning.

Yeah, because of weather.

We did not.

And I will say that.

That didn't happen.

No, it didn't.

And I will say this where they were being really.

I watched the first half.

And

the first half.

I mean, the very first play, the kickoff, some guy got injured, so it was delayed another, took him forever to get him off the field.

I don't know why.

And

then the Philadelphia Eagles' top defensive lineman spit on Dak Prescott, so he gets kicked out of the game.

Did he, really?

He gets kicked out of the game before the game actually even started, really, for him.

Yeah, it was after the opening kickoff, right?

Yeah, they were out there waiting for them to take care of the guy that was injured that took forever to get off the field.

And so he just walked over and spread out the field.

And they were impressed.

They were jawing each other, and he walked up to Dak, and as he was backing up, Dak leaned in to to say something, and he just spit on him.

And the ref was right there.

You know, so it's like,

you're gone.

Have a nice day.

Take care.

And I saw a couple other penalties that they called that the NFL apparently is trying to get rid of this.

They don't want taunting anymore, which is kind of sad.

You know, like, kind of sad.

I mean, that's the NFL.

And Joyce.

Well, yeah, I mean, the guy got up tackling.

It's been that way for a while, though.

But

they're enforcing it.

Like, the guy got up and tackled after a tackle, and he started

and got a penalty for it.

And I thought, okay.

Well, yeah, that's been a penalty for a while.

You got to move away from the guy

and not taunt him.

Yeah, it's just,

I don't like it.

I don't like it.

You should be able to taunt.

That's the NFL.

You should be able to stand over them and

growl

or flex.

Absolutely.

Or call them a sissy

or whatever you want to do.

Absolutely.

Names can't hurt me.

It doesn't matter.

It used to be our theory.

No.

Sticks and stones break my bones.

Not anymore, though.

The names are what really hurts me.

That's our theory now.

That is our theory now.

Sticks and stones might break my bones, but please don't call me any names.

No, no, don't call me that.

Don't call me that.

I don't identify as that.

I identify as something else.

Yeah.

I can't.

Yeah, I know.

I know.

And that shouldn't.

That shouldn't be involved in football.

No, it should not, but it is.

And seriously, the taunting thing has been a rule for a while.

You know, the excessive celebrating over somebody.

They're going to call that extra.

I just feel like it was, I feel like what they called, what I saw them call last night was, wouldn't have been taunting

in the last couple of years.

And so

I guess they're just...

Probably getting more strict would be my

National Guard situation.

Meanwhile, Illinois governor and

Chicago's mayor, Brendan Johnson, are still radically opposed to getting any help from President Trump.

I guess they're perfectly content with the 58 shootings and eight deaths every week.

It certainly appears that way.

Look, big cities have crime.

Let me ask you this, though.

What happened to the...

Well, if it saves one life, it's worth it.

What happened to that theory from the left?

We used to hear that on everything.

Everything.

Every issue.

Everything.

They don't feel that way about it.

Because they leaned into abortion extra heavy, extra hard, and they can't.

Even they realize that.

It does spoil the abortion argument, doesn't it?

Even they realize that.

Even they realize that.

Yeah, that argument just doesn't cover it.

It doesn't quite cover it.

This is Glenn Beck.

A lot of people are upset over a little dinner that occurred at the White House last night.

That's for sure.

Now, this, to me, is an example why we need a ballroom at the White House because when I see the picture of all them sitting around the table in this little room at the White House, I see how cramped they are.

Yeah.

But it's just not right.

It is not right.

It is not right.

You know what we need is a 90,000-square-foot ballroom.

That's what we need

at the White House.

Absolutely.

So maybe they could work on that.

They are.

Okay.

They are.

What a coincidence.

Yeah, that's weird.

So Donald Trump with Melania was there as well.

Wow.

Holy cow.

So they had Bill Gates,

Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg.

Wait, Bill Gates was at this dinner?

I'm not sure I knew that.

I knew he was meeting with Zuckerberg.

Bill Gates?

Yep, Bill Gates sitting right next to Melania.

Wow.

Donald, Melania, Bill.

Zuckerberg was to the right of Donald.

I don't see Tim.

Where do they stick Tim?

Oh, Tim's right sitting across from Zuckerberg.

Ooh, Tim is on the other side of the table.

Ooh, he was probably mad about that.

But,

you know, I guess

they were saying that this was the Silicon Valley power players, and we want to get people here and talk about innovation.

And we want to boost investment in semiconductor production and AI.

And so apparently, oh, they were initially supposed to happen, this was supposed to happen in the new Rose Garden, but that got moved inside because of weather.

So

the Rose Garden should be domed, just like the ballroom.

Right.

Just put it under a dome.

We'll be good.

So, yeah, it's really strange.

You know, they're all

so it's probably part of the negotiating process, right?

He's probably trying to get them to invest even more in the United States.

Yeah, interesting that

Elon wasn't there.

Ah, isn't that?

I mean,

that's a big player in the game.

Sure is.

In fact, the biggest.

If you're going to talk about AI and not invite Elon, that tells you something.

It kind of does.

Right.

With Grok 4

being,

I don't know.

Is it in the lead now over Chat GPT 5 or whatever that is?

It's pretty close.

It's between the two of them.

And then there's Gemini and then OpenAI, right?

and i think

even more than that yeah yeah i think uh i think open a i think sam altwin was there as well yeah it was he's listed on this list of being there um was joe gebia there uh the billionaire entrepreneur who uh started airbnb oh i don't know i don't know it doesn't i don't have the full guess because he

he uh has been getting a lot of flack lately because he voted for donald trump and i guess you're not supposed to.

If you're a billionaire now, I guess the impression is that you got to vote for a Democrat.

Isn't that weird?

It is.

We've come a long way on that.

We sure have.

It used to be the perception was that

all billionaires voted Republican.

Now it's the exact opposite of that.

I'm not MAGA.

I'm just investing in the country.

Right, that's right.

To do that, I have to deal with, you know, that guy who's in the office.

I don't think Gebia really even couches it like that.

He kind of says he just wasn't satisfied with Democrats.

Right, right, right, right.

Yeah, he did.

He said

in mid-2021,

the activity at the border caught my attention.

And I remember thinking, what's going on with this situation?

Yeah, I remember that too, Joe.

No kidding.

Welcome to the party.

We all kind of remember that moment where we thought,

is it okay that 10 million illegals are flooding across our border every year?

I don't know if I like that.

All these people just standing around for nothing.

What's happening?

Then he said, listen to this.

It seems as if there's no border.

Yeah, yeah, Joe.

It kind of does seem like that, doesn't it?

And as it got worse that year, I felt as if I needed to understand this problem more.

So I reached out to my friends from the Democratic side of the house at all levels, from the highest level all the way down.

He says I got some answers, but felt unfulfilled i don't know what answer you could have gotten to fulfill you from democrats there they had no explanation for that no explanation uh other than well we're not xenophobic like the republicans are i mean what what what is your explanation going to be for not protecting the border the border's secure maybe you know well maybe you use that

but these people are leaving terrible situations and we need to help them out um so anyway he went on to say that he wound up calling Jared Kushner, the president's son-in-law,

and asked him to explain what's going on at the border.

He says, I get on the phone with Jared and say, hey, can you help me fill in the gaps for me?

Like, what am I missing here?

Is this normal?

And Jared said, listen up, stupid.

Yeah.

Like, it seems there's no enforcement of our own border.

Like, don't nations need borders to be a nation?

Yeah.

Yeah.

And so he put me on this curriculum of just talking to experts in the field.

And I remember just being like, holy cow, this is crazy.

Like, this is not right.

Isn't that great?

That's awesome.

It's fun to see somebody come around like that, though.

Yeah.

Somebody who is very supportive of Democrats in the past and then sees a problem, sees Democrats have no clue.

as to how to do it.

And in defense of a lot of these billionaires, you know, they're busy building their brand, whatever it may be.

Yeah, sure.

I get that they aren't as focused on many other things

than they are just building what they have.

Yes.

And that's why they're a billionaire, by the way.

Right.

And Joe Gebbia, by the way, stepped away from Airbnb.

He wants to make that very clear because he knows that now Airbnb is going to be affected by his

political points of view now.

Right.

And so he made it sure to say, my views are my own and are in no way reflective of the company,

which I have no part of.

Except every headline is Airbnb is the first thing you see.

Yes.

Right.

Airbnb, former head, says that he does, who says he doesn't have anything to do with the company, but they still get that first billing of Airbnb.

And here's a good indication of that.

New York City Council member Tiffany Cabin writes on Twitter, gross.

Airbnb's co-founder,

Joe Gebbia, spreading anti-immigrant hate.

Is that what that was?

Because I didn't hear any hate from anybody.

No, no hate at all.

Spreading anti-immigrant hate on the podcast of a fascist who delights in separating families and disappearing people.

Oh, it's

agonizing.

It is absolutely agonizing.

I can't take it.

You know what happens when you don't enforce your border at all, when you don't pay attention to what's happening with immigration, is Great Britain.

That's what happens.

Yeah, Europe.

Greece.

Greece.

Greece at this point right now.

I mean, they're closing schools because they don't have enough kids for schools because nobody is having babies.

And the people who are young enough to have babies are getting the heck out of there.

Yep.

Their government has been paying for everything.

And you mentioned

the UK and Europe in general.

mostly all of those countries are paying for their lackluster immigration rules right now.

Right.

Yeah, they sure are.

And they're going to hell in a handbasket.

I don't even know if they have a handbasket.

They're just going to hell.

And they might be walking there.

Yes.

Because they, I mean, it's so bad now that they're cracking down on everything, including speech.

Because things are just going wrong for them in Great Britain.

I mean, they're going, we've got our own problems here, but Britain

far surpasses us in how far down the road they are.

They just arrested a comedy writer, Graham Linehan, in Britain over social media posts about transgender people.

And that sparked a debate

about freedom of speech and the limits in the U.K.

Well, freedom of speech is just not a thing anymore in Britain.

No, well, just not a thing.

I mean, it's barely.

It is still a thing, obviously, here in the U.S.

No question.

But

it seems like it's hanging by a thread.

I mean, we've already, the thing is, we've already given up words that we're not supposed to say.

Right?

And I say we.

Here in broadcasting, it's been forever.

There were words that we couldn't say.

And now there's even more words that we can't say in real life or on the air.

We're not supposed to say any of them.

And it's like,

no,

that's just a word, and I want to be able to say it too.

We used to have that

theory that words were just words.

Yeah, we sure did.

That's not a thing anymore.

I mean, that's what started this, and that's not a thing anymore at all.

Supporters of Linehan say UK laws are stifling legitimate comment and creating what Harry Potter author, J.K.

Rowling, and there's another person that's just,

she doesn't care though.

She doesn't care.

She's got enough money to now where you can try to cancel her if you want.

And we broke down her list the other day, Stu and I, here on the radio show, and her list of what she believed.

And she's just like, there's another person that used to work with me that won't work with me anymore.

So I'm going to make a list and we're going to say, this is my beliefs.

And if you don't like it, tough.

Okay.

Wow.

And she is a really, to me, she's a surprising source for that.

uh for that kind of attitude because she's very liberal oh absolutely i mean she's super liberal She just happens to believe that women are women and men are men, and you should be able to talk about it.

Yes.

And you shouldn't have to,

you shouldn't have to bend over backward and call somebody what they identify as if that's not what they really are.

And she, you know, she calls it totalitarianism because it is.

What was the line that stuck with us the other day?

Words should reflect reality.

Huh?

Huh.

What a concept.

What a concept.

But this Linehan

guy was arrested because of things that he wrote on,

I think it was on X, right?

I think he posted

some other social media platforms as well.

But they referenced the X posts.

And he, yeah, he landed back in the country.

He was on some tour or

when he landed back in the country, they met him at the gate.

They arrested him.

That's unbelievable.

over a tweet.

And he has to, he can't post anything on his social media accounts

until he goes before a judge sometime next month.

I mean, that's really, that's unbelievable.

It sure is.

That's the kind of thing that you expect in the old Soviet Union.

That's the kind of thing you expect in communist China.

Yep.

North Korea.

And it does happen there, obviously.

It does.

Yeah.

But it's not supposed to happen in the West.

No, it is not.

It's not supposed to happen in Great Britain.

I mean, Great Britain, say what you will about them.

That is the country that we based our rights on.

You know, the Constitution is based in part on

the

I just drew a total blank, but their 12

Magna Carta.

Yeah, the Magna Carta.

The Magna Carta.

From 12, what, 1213 or 1214?

I mean,

they've had rights that others on this planet didn't have for centuries.

That's because they were busy colonizing the world, those bastards

taking over the world.

Bastards, we hate them for that.

We hate their guts over that.

And so I shouldn't have even said anything good about them.

Bastards.

They deserve everything they get.

They do.

Forgot it.

Thank you for reminding me about the colonization of the planet.

Oh, man.

All right.

I support Prager U because they're doing something extraordinary.

They're preserving American history in digital form.

You probably know how much I care about preserving truth.

History means a lot to me, even more so fighting for what is right.

It's a core value of mine.

That is why I support Prager U.

Like modern-day clay pots, they're safeguarding the truth.

Truths that have been hidden away in our classrooms so our children and now grandchildren can be indoctrinated with progressive ideals to destroy our republic.

Prager U videos reach millions of people every single day, especially young people.

And they're changing minds at scale.

And I've seen it.

I've talked to the kids.

I've talked to my kids about it.

It works.

I would like to invite you to be a part of this.

Nobody else can do this.

Nobody else is doing this.

And it's working.

Together, we can give America's kids the truth they deserve.

If history in the classroom matters to you, would you help PragerU?

If you want to make an impact on the next generation, go to PragerU.com slash Glenn and donate.

Matt and Jeffy for Glenn today.

All right, so President Trump just signed the executive order changing the name of

the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

Okay.

Yeah, I don't really care.

Okay.

Do you?

Not really.

It's not.

Not really.

I don't really feel strongly about it one way or the other.

I mean, we've got

to the Department of Defense.

Yeah.

So, I mean, Department of Defense.

It sounds nicer.

It does.

It does sound nicer.

Department of War makes it sound like we are actually at war, and many would say, well, we are.

so you know I get that and you know we're on we're you know the Trump administration is definitely about being on the forefront and being ahead and take walking forward

so they want people to know that don't mess with us right I mean we've we've shown that with Iran we've shown that with you know a couple of fishermen out in the out in the Caribbean that's all they were is fishermen we just we just looking for some big tuna guys going out guys going out fishing we're just blowing them out of the water okay Right.

All right.

Whatever.

I know Marco Rubio said they were part of the gang, and they're part of

WhatsApps Faces country who's Maduro?

He's a gang leader.

Well, he's actually

the leader of a cartel.

Cartel.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And so we don't recognize him as the leader of the country.

We have a price on his head.

And I'm surprised that

maybe they are trying to, you know, sending people in from time to time trying to get him.

But yeah,

I don't think it's Wanted Dead or Alive.

I think it's

bring back the head and you get 50 million.

Okay.

All right.

And I don't know what,

does it make a difference if we get rid of him?

You know, they believe so.

So, okay, good.

Yeah.

Because, I mean,

we got rid of a couple other cartel members, too, and I feel like the cartel is still working, still going.

Yeah, we got rid of Noriega, put him in prison, prison, and that didn't seem to fix much in Central America.

We got rid of El Chapo, and we got rid of his partner.

Right.

And I feel like that's still kind of an ongoing business.

Yeah.

So maybe the Department of War will get us out of that.

It's pretty deeply rooted.

So, yeah, we'll see.

We'll see if the Department of War

helps.

I hope so.

We'll see.

I hope so.

All right.

Have a great weekend.

Glenn will be back on Monday.

See you then.

This is Glenn Beck.
