Why the legislature has seeded
all of their power to the administration,
and they need to reclaim those powers.
For the balance of power,
I explain and why it's important
with a couple of news stories today.
Also 60 minutes somehow talked to a
gang member who admits how many drugs and humans he's smuggled across our border.
If the U.S. wants to avoid becoming Europe, the deportations must continue.
And that means Canada, step it up.
Also, why are we still allowing guys that identify as girls to compete in women's sports and be
treated like legitimate winners when they're not?
It's time for an asterisk.
And maybe an actual winners platform while he's getting the medal over here.
number two is getting the gold over on this side of the field.
All that and more on today's podcast.
Ever got a flat tire or find yourself on the side of the road
looking to make sure you had a spare back in the days
when you didn't have, you know, AAA available to come get you?
It's pretty much a big sigh of relief when you discover that that spare is indeed still there
because even though it's not going to be fun changing the tire,
you can get back on the road once you do.
being prepared for whatever it's going wrong is really a way of life.
You have that spare just in case, and then you forget about it, and you don't think about it until it comes up.
Likewise, you need to be prepared for other emergencies.

You're listening to
the best of the Blenbeck program.
First of all, the FBI is now responding
to the ongoing attacks against Elon Musk.
It appears as though
everybody is saying these are lone wolf attacks.
Are they?
Law enforcement now, the FBI has received 48 reports of attacks on Tesla vehicles and the dealerships
and charging stations so far just this month.
And it appears that they may be coordinated.
Don't know yet, but it wouldn't doubt it.
All you have to do, though, is coordinate a couple of them and then just the crazies take over from there.
But we have now moved a 10-person task force of special agents and intelligence analysts from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
They've moved them into the Department of Treasury and the FBI's Counterterrorism Division.
And they are specifically going after those people and those groups that are targeting Elon Musk and his company and your car, possibly.
Speaking of cars yesterday, big, big announcement, Hyundai has announced $21 billion of a U.S. investment.
They are bringing one of their factories here to the United States.
They're going to be building cars here.
This is another one of these things where the Trump tariffs, this part at least seems to be working.
He is threatening these tariffs and companies are starting to move here into the
the United States because they want the tax break and they also don't want the tariff on their car.
Did you see what Europe did yesterday?
We have had tariffs so high.
No car, no American car is selling over in Europe.
One reason is their streets are really, really small and our trucks and SUVs are really, really big.
So that's one reason.
But the other is you can't afford them over there because the tariffs are so high.
We don't have tariff.
We didn't have tariffs on their cars.
So Trump said 20% tariff.
Well, they folded.
They agreed to a 2.5% tariff.
And it looks like we're going to do 2.5%.
So that's good, especially if you're a car dealer of anything foreign from Europe, at least.
That's a good thing.
That looks like that should happen and be finalized this week.
By the way, there's a story out today from CNBC, tax revenue collected by the IRS,
set to plummet. Officials at the IRS and Treasury Department are anticipating tax revenue
to drop more than 10% by April 15th compared to last year. The loss of tax receipts is expected
as more individuals and businesses don't file taxes or attempt to avoid paying balances owed to
the IRS. The amount of loss federal revenue could top $500 billion. Okay. Why? Officials say
that the prediction is directly linked to the shifting taxpayer behavior
and President Trump's cuts at the IRS.
Okay.
When I read that, I'm like, mm-hmm.
You know what this is?
This is another thing coming from the left, the deep state, everything else.
He can't cut those jobs at the IRS.
That's too important.
We'll lose too much power.
He can't get rid of those 80,000 people.
And shifting, what was it?
shifting
where was that
receipts expected
as more individuals
and businesses don't file tax
or attempt to avoid paying balances
owed to the IRS
okay nobody's shifting that
I mean is there a new thing
I mean I'm pissed at my taxes
I don't want to pay my taxes
because I think they've wasted
so much of my money
but I'm paying my taxes
I don't know any big movement that's saying
we're not paying our tax
there was a bigger movement during the Tea Party than there is right now.
But this is all a government nonsense story to get you to believe that we're all going to collapse
because we've cut 80,000 IRS people that really hadn't even started doing anything yet.
The House GOP is now insisting on Senate cooperation for the reconciliation talks.
The Senate has broken down.
this is for the big beautiful bill
and the Senate needs to get their ass in gear.
The country is at stake.
You cannot stall on what Donald Trump is doing.
It requires action and action now.
This is a very delicate balance.
He's got to have all the pieces in line.
You can't hold a piece like tax cuts back.
You can't hold the piece of regulation back.
that's that's the kindling he's hitting sparks now but he's got to have some kindling that can catch fire
on the economy and congress and the senate get your ass in gear now the house
voting on restraining nationwide injunctions to stop the judicial overreach against trump
this is absolutely imperative as well we knew this was going to happen what did they
tell us as they were going after Donald Trump to make sure that he went to prison?
What did they say? A is not going to be president again because we're going to put him in prison,
but we learned a lot. The way to get this guy is to go after him with the judges in the court system.
It didn't work, but they doubled down after he was elected. Don't worry, we'll stop him in the courts.
So anybody believes that this is just spontaneously happening because all of a sudden these
leftist judges are like, you know what, I really care about the Constitution. I didn't care about it
just a few months ago, but now I see how important the Constitution really is. This is nothing
but another piece of failed strategy from the far left. And it's got to stop. I'm going to tell you in a
minute, I'm going to tell you in a minute how our Constitution, well, you know, let me do it now.
Let me tell you how our Constitution is written and what each role of the branches of government,
how the founders put this together.
We don't trust our government now.
Now, we went through a period to where we did trust our government.
But it wasn't during the founding era.
The founding era, all of the founders were like, don't trust the government.
We gave this to you.
And nobody trusted.
Even government officials said it's getting out.
of control. It's getting too big. I just ask for extra money so we could have some wood
to put into the pop belly stove to keep, you know, the chamber of Congress warm. They all feared
it was going to get out of control because they all came out of a kind of totalitarianism
with the king. So what they put together is checks and balances. And you've heard this a million
times. Three forms of government, checks and balances. But let me give this to you so you can explain
this to your children or to your friends that don't understand this. There are several things the founders
were afraid of. One, big states are going to gobble up and take all the power from the little
states. And they will just, they'll bully everyone around. The one they were worried about most
was New York. New York was a big state. And Delaware was like, we're a state. Nobody's going to
listen to us. And sadly, Delaware, nobody listens to you now just because you deserve it.
But, uh, I shouldn't have Biden to the rest of the country. Yeah. If you would have done that,
we would have been fine. Anyway, so what they did is they came up with the electoral college.
And everybody wants to now get rid of it. And I want to see a, I want you to see the progressive
game plan here on the constitution. Right now, they're trying to get rid of the electoral college.
what was that for?
That was a check on the power of the big states like California, even Texas and New York.
We have to have that.
So the little states don't have to live like everybody wants to live in California or New York.
And New York doesn't have to live like the way Texas wants everybody to live.
They want to take that check and balance out.
They've done it before.
you'll see here in a second. So we have the House of Representatives based on census. So everybody gets
you know, representative, you know, checks and the electoral college. So that was to balance that
concern out. Then when they made Congress, they gave congressmen a two-year term. I mean, I can't even
imagine how fast that goes. It must be like you're running for election all the time. It's just two
years, really? Why? Because they put the purse strings. This is why every law that involves any kind of money
must start in Congress because they're the closest to you. They're the fastest to get rid of. Every two years,
they start doing stuff that you don't like. You can vote them out. No other office has that every two
years. And that's because they have the checkbook. If they start writing bad checks, if they start
moving the country in the wrong way. You are the check on them. All these things with money has to
start with them because they're the closest to you and the fastest way to get somebody out legally.
Now, also a check on their out-of-control ways would be the Senate. So let's say Congress starts to act
in a way that is all about the federal government and has nothing to do with the states.
the Senate is supposed to be representatives from each state that are not elected.
Instead, they are appointed by each state.
So the legislature and the governor get together and say,
we want this guy to be our Senate representative.
Why did they do that?
Because they were afraid of the federal government getting so big and powerful
that the Congress would just start thinking,
we're a federal agency, we're here to make sure we can grow the size of government,
we can do all these things.
And they knew that if Congress got out of control that way, they had to have the states there
that only, Chuck Schumer should only care about New York, not the rest, just New York.
He's fighting for what New York wants.
But right now, because the progressives changed this around the turn of the century,
what happened?
Chuck Schumer is now, that's now a national election.
Why? Shouldn't be. It shouldn't even be an election according to Congress, or I'm sorry, according to the Constitution. But the progressives passed an amendment to abolish that check. Notice the check on the states eating each other or the big states eating the small states. They want to take that out. They're working on that now. The next one that balanced the states versus the federal, they want to take that one out. And
they did take that one out.
So the Senate acts as a guard against an out-of-controlled government, just growing bigger and bigger and bigger.
The next one.
What happens if the Senate colludes with the House against the Constitution?
Well, now that you have taken away that, you know, that check and balance of the Senate, it could happen.
So what happens then?
The veto power.
That's why veto is so important.
The administration can veto it.
But that veto is only supposed to be if the government thinks, or I'm sorry, if the president
thinks this is unconstitutional.
Because remember, they all raise their hand not to say, I'm going to make sure we're
making jobs.
I'm going to make sure that we've got everybody equal.
No, they raise their hand to say, I will protect and defend the consequences.
Constitution of the United States. So the number one job of each of them is to make sure they're
guarding their own house and their own power to be a check and balance against the other branches
of government. So now if you have an administration that just starts to go out of control and
begins to make its own laws and rule as a dictator because he can, which is what the kind of
administration we have had now since, well, really since FDR, but the administration is way out of
control and way out of balance. It's why half the country fears the president, no matter who it is,
half the country fears that guy. He's going to come, he's going to shut me down. He can put me in
jail. Because the administration has too much power. How did that happen? Because Congress,
again, has the check on the administrative power.
It is the check that says, you know what?
We're not going to fund that.
We're not going to fund them anymore.
You know, if you're going to use the ATF that way or the FBI, no funding for you.
Get it back in line or we cut it off.
That's a big power move.
The other thing is, don't you make a rule?
What are you doing making rules?
We pass laws here.
You can't just go and make up your own rules.
It all has to come through Congress.
Well, the founders didn't realize that Congress would no longer be greedy about power.
They would care about not being blamed for stuff more than their power.
So Congress gave that power up to the administrative state.
That's why this is all out of balance.
They can cut off the money or change the laws.
Make sure that can't have the Raines Act comes to mind.
The founders knew that people hoarrow.
power. But now they're not. And that's why we're out of balance.
I've been talking about the ministry of preborn now for a few years because their mission is
personal to me. Every day they're saving babies' lives, every single day. But those aren't the
only lives they're saving. These aren't people shouting down expecting moms or, you know, any of
that. They treat them with love and respect and offering them help in a time of real difficulty,
even crisis. Most of these women are in crisis. They feel completely alone. They feel like they have no other choice.
The primary mission is really simple. When a pregnant mom sees her baby on an ultrasound for the first time,
when she hears that heartbeat, twice as likely then to choose life. The secondary mission is to provide for
the needs of the moms who need it because even when they say, oh my gosh, that is a baby,
many of them will say, but I can't afford, I don't know what to do. They're there for up to two years,
given mom everything she needs.
This is such important work in a time when the left will claim that an unborn child is nothing more than a clump of cells and, you know, say that the left doesn't care or the right doesn't care about the moms or the babies after birth.
We do.

the best of the Glenn Beck program. So President Trump has imposed a 25% tariff on nearly all goods
imported from Canada. And he's been saying, you got to work with us. You've got to secure the
northern border. You've got you've got to stop the drug cartels, the drugs and the human smuggling
that is happening on our northern border. And everybody's like, oh, no, Canada would never do that.
That's not a problem. Okay, it is a problem.
It's a border. It's a problem. And it's porous. All of them are.
We've got to do something about it and ask our friends on our border to help us.
Well, they're not. 60 minutes went up. I couldn't believe this was on 60 minutes over the weekend.
But they had a cartel smuggler on 60 minutes. How do 60 minutes? I mean, is that in the phone book?
Where do you find a cartel smuggler? But they found one and he went on record. And he said, I'll always find a way to get.
people illegally cross the border.
Here's a piece of what he said.
This video was reported in January.
A group of men who just crossed the border
ran to an SUV that drove them deeper into New York.
You'll also see a woman getting out of the car
and go north to Canada.
This man told us he coordinated the handoff
and took the video.
Can you tell us who you work for?
For the Sinaloa Cartel.
He goes by the name Javis.
and agreed to speak with us only with his camera off.
He said he can't risk his identity being exposed.
How does this work?
They tell you where to go?
They tell you how many people you have to bring across each week?
Exactly. That's how it goes.
They provide the people.
They have more people who are behind all this
looking for customers, finding them,
and summoning them to certain locations.
We found Javi through his online ads,
which he says TikTok recently.
took down.
Wow.
Here he is talking about
smuggling babies and fentanyl
across the border. What's the youngest
child you've ever crossed?
Three months.
Three months.
Yes, babies.
What happens if one of the migrants
you're working with doesn't pay?
They cannot go.
They're held hostage until they pay up.
Until what?
Until they pay.
Do you?
Do you work only with humans or do you move drugs also?
Everything.
How much fentanyl do you move across that border?
Lately it's been quiet, but for a while there we were bringing in 30 kilos per month.
Wow.
You were, the drugs come from China?
From China.
The China.
I get more into the U.S., but also it goes from the U.S. to Canada and weapons.
Hmm. Hmm. Interesting, isn't it?
So that's what we're dealing with. And I don't know if you saw the video of the people that, you know, were boarded up on airplanes and sent to, where was it?
Not Venezuela, but El Salvador. Did you see that? Trump posted this amazing video. You guys didn't see this? Oh, we got to look it up and play it.
It's this amazing video of the plane arriving in El Salvador and them getting on the plane, getting off the plane, and then, you know, ankle and bracelets on their wrists walking hunched down into this new prison.
And I got to tell you, that video itself, if I were thinking about coming here, I would immediately go, I'm not going there.
if that's what happens to you
I am not going there
it sent such a strong
strong message
this is how we treat people who are coming here
who are bad guys
now this is the one that Trump is
that the administration is in court now
because an activist judge is like
you can't just do that
you know what why
well because you didn't vet them no I tell you what we did
we gave them exactly the same kind of vetting
that the last president gave when he let them all in. None.
Now, these people were on a list, okay?
It doesn't mean that they are, we're all gang members,
but you're here, you're here illegally, bye-bye.
I know that sounds heartless, but you, I really believe that they all need to go home.
All of them need to go home.
And a lot of these people were not just on a list.
They were known to be gang members, and a lot of them had committed crimes here in America.
Bye-bye.
See you.
Yeah.
I mean, if you, I love that.
I heard some of these people are like, some of these people don't even have criminal records in America.
Well, first of all, if they're here illegally, to me, they have a criminal record.
They act like this is not a crime.
Well, there's a law.
Okay.
And I understand there's some nuance within that law.
But like, there's a law.
You're not supposed to come here.
They know they're not supposed to come here.
many of them had criminal records at their home country and not here.
Again, does that mean that we don't, that we're going to leave them here?
No.
Because they didn't commit a crime that we know of yet here?
I mean, that the point is to prevent those, right?
I mean, I, I, it's possible, right, that they made a mistake.
There are some, some claims that a couple of these people should not have been going to prison.
And even if they should be deported to their home country, if they didn't commit a major
crime. They don't necessarily need to go to the El Salvadorian lockup. All that being said,
find those problems, solve those problems, right? I mean, I like when Elon Musk said about this
in the, in the White House a couple weeks ago when he was asked about it. And they said, like,
hey, you, and this has happened with Doge. Hey, you posted you saved $1.9 billion. And actually,
that had been canceled in the previous administration. And he said, yeah, we're not going to get
everything right. Like when we notice one of those things, we're going to fix it. And we'll get a
fixed right away. Like, that is actually a normal human way of dealing with an issue like that.
And I think it's so weird in Washington to hear it. But like, that's okay. Now, if you happen to be
the person who was sent to this prison, you're not going to like it very much.
And you shouldn't have been here in the first place. But you shouldn't, that's the point.
Like, there is an initial thing that puts you into this bucket. If you commit a crime by crossing
into this country, which we have warned you not to participate in. If you do that, there are
consequences to it. And, you know, if you're wrongly sent to this prison, they should absolutely
correct those mistakes. Well, I have to tell you, I mean, every message he is sending is the exact
opposite message that Biden was sending. Yeah. He's sending right now, even if what Biden was
sending is, even if you're a terrorist, even if you're a murderer, we're not really going to check.
So come on in. You're fine. Now, you might be a good person. You might be, you know, a dad of 16.
whatever and you're just coming in, but no.
We don't know.
We don't know.
So don't come.
Leave.
Leave right now.
Leave on your own.
He is begging people to self-deport.
And when you see the video, I got to play it for you.
It is amazing.
When you see this video, it is, I watch it.
I was like, oh, we have it?
Yeah, go ahead and play this.
Watch this.
Shows the airplane.
Now here they come down the stairs.
And look how they're all marched in a line.
And they're all being marched right into this maximum security prison compound.
And no thank you.
Doesn't look great.
Does not look great.
Look at that.
No thank you.
And this is Buket, who actually tweeted this too.
The president of El Salvador.
Yeah.
I mean, you are not.
If you, if you are thinking,
about coming to the country or you're here illegally, would you not be packing up everything
right now going, yeah, I'm not going to.
Well, I mess with it, right?
It's the messaging, you know, as much as we've always been very, very difficult or tough
on illegal immigrants, it's true.
There's always been a part of me that does acknowledge the fact that we treat and have
for decades treated illegal immigration kind of like it's a speeding ticket, right?
You shouldn't do it.
Correct.
But we're not really going to do much about it.
And if I were in a situation like some horrible country, you know, everything was overrun, we were all poor.
Would I risk a speeding ticket?
Yeah, maybe.
You know?
I mean, like I, this is going to surprise people.
Occasionally I drift a couple of miles an hour over that speed limit here in the United States.
That's off the record for anyone listening.
But like, yeah, you know, occasionally that happens.
And I do it for almost no gain.
I do it because I want to get.
at home 13 seconds faster.
If your entire family was...
You got all that recorded, right.
Okay, go ahead.
It was devastated.
Yeah.
You and the United States government was constantly sending you the signal.
Sure, it's kind of like breaking the rules, but don't worry about it.
We get sanctuary cities here for you.
The president was in a debate.
He just won Joe Biden, and he told you, what should we do with illegal immigrants?
We should welcome them.
That's the real policy.
Like, I could...
It almost takes away.
a good chunk of the responsibility of the illegal immigrant.
That's how bad our policy has been.
The policy is different now.
The policy has been communicated quite clearly to anyone who would consider coming here.
Or is here illegally.
Yeah. Get out.
Get out. Get out.
And he's doing all of this to not have to round people up.
He's starting with the worst of the worst and showing the examples of what is happening to them to say to you,
please make the right decision leave on your own.
We don't want to round you and your family up.
We don't want you to go through this.
You have an opportunity.
In fact, if you let us know,
we're going to give you a special pass that means you could come back to the country
and apply for citizenship, not ahead of the line,
but you can.
If we catch you here and you haven't self-deported
and you're totally a law by any citizen,
you're never coming back.
on a list. You're never allowed to come back. Okay. He's sending these messages and telling people,
I think with compassion, hey, we might come for you one day. You really should leave now.
We don't want to make this an ugly thing. You came in the wrong way. Sure, we encouraged it,
whatever, but not anymore. And this has to be done or we turn into Europe. Why is no one looking at what's
happening to Europe and concerned.
I was talking to a friend last night,
kind of is in the circle of the no.
And he said,
I think the world is preparing for a three front war.
And I was like,
wait, that doesn't sound good.
He said, you know, look at the actions.
Look at what's happening around the world right now.
He said,
it could go horribly wrong with Europe.
And it appears that,
There are players on all sides that want to have a war in Europe.
You can make your own decisions on if that's true and why.
But also in the Middle East, everybody is preparing for war and preparing for a possible war with Iran.
And then China is preparing for war.
And if there is a huge war in the Middle East, then we're brought into it.
and a war in Europe, and we're brought into it.
You don't think the third leg would stand up and take Taiwan.
They'd take it in a heartbeat.
Because we would not be able to fight a three-theater war.
We just are not prepared for it.
And, you know, the one in Europe, if we're fighting in Europe,
you know, we're approaching a place to where that could be a hundred-year war.
Because that'll all be about ideology.
And we're not talking the Russians.
We're talking about the Islamic State.
you know, they're all, all these Islamists have been brought in.
And then they change.
And then they have no go zones.
And then they set up Sharia courts.
Do you think that's going to stop it sometime, France, Germany, Holland, Sweden?
You really think all of a sudden they're going to go, but that's enough.
We're not going to go past this.
We're going to have our Sharia courts.
But we respect you Lutherans over here.
Of course not.
Of course not.
They have to take care of their own countries and the population that has been moving in that is destroying their countries and making them an enemy of the freedoms of mankind.
I don't want to deal with it.
They need to.
But we're in the same boat.
We must protect the homeland.
We'll never be able to save anyone if we don't save ourselves for.
If we don't know who's here, we don't control the crime in our own cities, we don't have cheap and effective energy, we don't have an educated, not miseducated, but an educated population, a hardworking population, somebody that, a population that understands its own country, its own history, and its own values, you don't survive. You don't survive.
So we have a very clear job that we have to do.
And I think Donald Trump is doing a good job of it so far.
But the rest of it is up to us.
But we must act.
I mean, I really think that God does what we can't do.
I couldn't have stopped that bullet.
Couldn't have done it.
Nobody could have stopped that bullet.
God stopped that bullet from hitting him.
I've never seen anything like that.
If that wasn't a clear almost Moses parting the Red Sea-style miracle,
I don't know if I've ever seen one then.
That was a miracle.
But God does the things we can't do.
We now have to do the things that we have to do.
And one of those things is if you want the government to be less powerful,
we have to stop giving it power.
If you want the government to do less,
we have to take on the responsibility to do more in our own communities,
neighborhoods, and family.
That's the way we fix this thing.
But the time to fix it is right now.
We may only have another three years.
and who knows what happens in three years.
Let's make sure we're doing all the hard work ourselves right now.
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
Stu, what is the in sports?
There's somebody that has, I think it's baseball,
has an asterisk after their record.
The famous one is Roger Maris,
because he hits his 60 first home run.
That's right.
Which was more than Babe Ruth, right?
Babe Ruth had 60.
But Maris did it in 162 games instead of 154.
So for a long time in the official record book,
there was an asterisk after that,
hey, he had eight more games.
That's why he was able to do this.
They did take that away eventually.
And obviously that record has been broken since several times.
But they did take this asterisk away.
I think they should put an asterisk on Baybrooth.
It just says the guy couldn't run.
He ate hot dogs and drank beer and he was a fat guy.
And yet, look at him.
I mean, arguably the greatest baseball player of all times.
I know.
And look at him.
That's an American hero right there.
Now they're doing steroids and everything else.
And you're like, oh, you beat the fat guy's record.
Big deal.
That's a fair point.
Yeah.
The reason why I bring this up is because there is Aiden Gallagher,
who is an 11th grade sprinter from McDaniel High School in Portland, Oregon.
You know where this is going?
I already do, yes.
Okay, yeah, all right.
So you know.
In the girls' 400 meter varsity race,
he beat his competition by more than seven seconds.
Wow, what an achievement.
Yeah, what an achievement.
What do you mean he?
Well, it's a guy.
Okay.
Yeah.
A guy?
Yeah, his guy.
What sport was it?
It's a girls...
200 meter race.
Do you see the problem with that at all?
I do.
I do.
Apparently nobody else does.
But I see it clearly and glad to see you see it.
And everybody in this audience sees the problem.
And so they were cheering him on and then he gets up on the podium.
And he's like, so he's just won a second, a second race.
He dominates now in the girls track and field again.
Now here's the, here's my, why I brought up the asterix.
I think, I honestly think that.
that there should be some group that comes out
and they set up the two boxes or even three boxes.
And you can go and stand over there in that number one thing.
That's fine.
We're going to have another award ceremony just off to the side of that one
where the girl who came in second place, third place, and fourth place,
we award them first, second, and third.
And every one of these records in these communities that are saying
that was a girl should have an ask.
districts. We're going to have to remember who actually won as a female. It's going to come back,
King. It's not going to be like this forever. And I just, I would like to just start. I mean, I think that
person should run and, you know, his family or his good friends can go, oh my gosh, that is so good.
You go, girl. And everybody else can be like, yeah, we're meeting over here because here's the real
first place winner for women. Yeah. I think that's a great way of looking at it. I think, too, like,
You know, we've put a lot of focus on gender for the story.
What?
You know, when we talk about how like, hey, you know, it's wrong.
And we go to kind of the gender, how crazy it is that people say you can change gender by just wishcasting it and all of that.
I think the real story is what it's doing to girls.
Yeah, I think it's fairness.
It is.
Right?
And not only that, you've wanted to be a champion your whole life.
Yeah.
And here comes some guy to take it away from you.
and everybody is cheering and saying, you go, girl.
It's a guy.
Yeah.
Seven seconds ahead.
If that was a girl that did it, they would deserve to be on the front page of every newspaper in America.
Right.
It's a guy doing it.
That's why it's stupid.
And it's funny because the gender conversation that we've had at large is really important.
You can't just change your gender based on this.
We're not going to necessarily accept all of that.
But it's separate from this.
And a good example of this is I remember when my son was playing in his, he was
in a 12-view tournament, you know, baseball, he was 12. And he was playing in a tournament.
It was a good tournament, like really high-level teams there. And one of the teams had a girl on it.
And now the average pitcher at that time probably could throw, you know, mid-mid to upper 50s, right, miles per hour.
Some of the fast pitchers would throw maybe mid-60s. This girl was throwing like 73 on the gun.
I mean, she was throwing harder than almost every other pitcher in this tournament.
and there was no uproar about it.
It wasn't like, how dare she switch genders and play?
No one cares because she was essentially, I hate to say it this way, but playing up, right?
Like she was playing in a tougher arena and no one complained about it because she was good enough to compete at that level.
And it's the opposite.
That is the problem.
There is also something that all guys, no matter what you preach, they're like, you were beat by a girl.
girl. There is an element.
They're going to get better. If there's any way to get better, they're going to get better just by saying, you were beaten by a girl?
I will say, not only did this girl pitch very well, I saw her hit a over-the-fence home run in the same game.
Wow.
She jacked a home run. And I was like, wow. Now, she was a big girl.
She was, she had some, yeah, she could do it. She had some muscles. I have no problem. Honestly.
I have no problem with them playing up.
If girls could play at the same level,
I think that would be outrageous to watch.
It would be great.
You know, here's a girl who's just like outpowering this guy.
All right, go for it.
Yeah, I mean, I'd be a little,
I'd be worried in a physical sport,
especially as they get older, right?
Like, you know, you have a football.
If you're going to go out there and play running back,
I'd be concerned you're going to get killed.
So that is a different story.
But when it's not a physical sport like that, they go out and compete.
I don't think the American people don't care.
Like they want girls to have a chance to compete with each other in a fair context.
Yes.
That is not, this is not, it's not insane.
It is completely normal and the way it's been forever.
And that's the way it should continue to be.
And see, that's why sports, you know, when you say about football,
that's why sports, it's different than competitive, you know, first, second and third kind of
sports. This is, if you can compete, go for it. Go for it. Because we want to win. You know,
all of us want to win. And we're playing as a team. When this is happening, you got a guy
competing against girls. Girls are not as strong as men are. Their bodies are just different.
They're going to be faster. They're going to be stronger. I mean, I'm not going to be.
but most men, and I put myself loosely in that category,
most men can do those things, okay?
And I don't want to see a girl beaten by a guy,
and I mean physically beaten up by a guy.
I don't want a girl in a boxing ring against a guy,
even though he's wearing a dress.
No, no thank you.
You know, I'm sorry, but maybe it's chivalry that still lives
and some of us
sexism is what it is
Gly it is sexism
Yeah it is
It's chivalry yeah it's chivalry
That's the good word for it
Yeah
They would call it sexism
I would call it chivalry
Yes
But it's true
I mean I
Because it has the word
Shiv in it
I say this to people
And especially right here
And the main
The main culprit for this
Is our own Hillary Kennedy
Who
I can't watch
The female boxing thing
No
I can't watch it
I can't watch the female
MMA stuff
I'm not saying they're not great athletes.
I'm not saying it's incredible.
It is incredible competition.
I can't watch a woman get punched in the face 50 times.
I have a hard time watching guys with MMA.
Yeah.
I mean, it's just like at some point you're like, can you guys, okay, can we stop this?
Can we stop this?
This seems and they're like, they both would look at you and go, what?
I want to rip him apart.
Right.
And you'd be like, okay, there's something unnatural here going on.
I'm uncomfortable.
With women, it's horrible.
Yeah, I mean, I can watch, you know, I've always.
been a boxing fan. I never got really into
the MMA, but I've always been a boxing fan. And I
would love watching those big matches.
But with women, like,
there was a match they had, it was the
Tyson Paul thing that was on Netflix.
And I can't tell you how many people I've talked to.
Almost everybody says the same thing about that match.
First of all, they say it was a joke and blah, blah, blah.
What I actually was, I thought the whole spectacle was
relatively enjoyed. I had a good time
watching it. It was kind of a crazy thing.
But everyone says, but what was really good was the match
before it. And it was two women.
who were beating the hell out of each other
to the extent that in the post-game interview,
the woman who I think she lost,
is out there and her eye is like falling out of her head.
There's just a flap of skin.
Like, her entire forehead just kind of plops open.
Like she just had plastic surgery that went really, really wrong.
And she's just talking, there's just blood dripping down her face.
And, like, everyone's like, that was an incredible match.
And I'm sure it was, if you're into that.
But like I just, I don't know what it is.
I can't watch a woman, even if it's another woman punching her, get punched in the face over and over again.
You know, I just can't do it.
Have you ever seen those like those Denny's fights where all the women get up and they just start dragging each other by the hair and they're behind?
I can't even watch those.
Yeah, I did.
I see that.
I'm like, ah, this is disturbing.
I don't, I don't want what's happening here.
I don't know if that makes me a squish or what.
I don't know.
I'm totally with you on that.
And like, so I have no desire to see that.
And I think, I don't know, maybe there is.
I feel like there's something in being a male and a husband and a father and all that stuff that's kind of built into you that says like violence against women bad.
Violence against men.
Violence against women bad.
And I don't think that's something we should run away from, frankly.
I think that's a good instinct generally.
I think it's going to be remembered.
Maybe I'm wrong.
I think it'll be remembered just a little bit like, I don't know, the Christians and the Lions.
Okay.
You know what I mean?
it's cool to watch two lions fight.
It is.
But when you throw a Christian in there,
I don't think they really have anything but a prayer of surviving.
Not going to make it.
Not going to make it.
I don't know how people found that entertaining.
I'm sure it was entertaining, but...
Was it?
Well, I mean, I've watched it in movies many times.
No, you haven't.
No, you haven't.
I mean, you haven't really seen.
No, no.
I mean, can you imagine sitting there in the arena and cheering as a human being
was ripped apart by a lion?
Horrible.
Horrible.
Even there are, there's a certain level of horror movie that gets to the point where I can't.
I think when I was 20, you know, I'd be like, I know it's fake, but there's a certain level
of it now.
They really, I mean, some of these movies, the terrifier secret series being one of them, I can't
I could never make it through that movie.
That sounds horrible.
It's basically just like, it's for horror movie nerds, I would say.
And basically every, don't watch, don't watch it.
I'm not going to watch it.
I'm advising everyone in the audience.
Don't go watch it.
No, I'm not going to.
Don't.
But it is basically every death as gruesome as possible.
And in a way, because horror movie nerds like practical effects and they like to talk
about how amazing practical effects are.
We've had a couple of them who work here and they're always like, oh, but the practical
effects.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I know.
But it be like, it is horrifically torturous gruesome stuff.
many times two women
and I
had no stomach for that anymore
I don't know
I'm just getting old
I'm turning into a squish
or wuss whatever it is
but I'm there
I can't do it
I can't do it
I don't want to watch it
there's no reason
for me to bring that
into my head to watch
it makes you terribly uncomfortable
no it really
there's no reason to put it in your head
none
