Hello, here Camille

What a great show.
Today we start with
the amazing interview
on NBC with the head
of the Department of Justice.
They had all kinds of questions.
Of course, none of them
really included anything
about Hunter Biden.
And we go into
the latest scandal with the FBI.
We also talk to Bjorn Lomburg, who is a guy who believes in climate change but isn't crazy.
And Michael Schellenberger, who is the same guy, environmentalist of the year, according to Time magazine,
before they started hating him because he wouldn't go along with the madness.
This all is around the special that we have tonight on the climate emergency.
I'm going to show you the countries around the globe that are already in on the Great Reset and way ahead of us that are literally collapsing.
First one is Sri Lanka.
That's tonight at 9 p.m. only on the blaze.
Hey, today's podcast is brought you by Relief Factor.
I can't tell you the change that it is made in my life.
I had so much pain in my hands that I didn't think I would ever be able to write again.
I love to handwrite letters and handwrite things.
I couldn't do it anymore.
I couldn't hold a pen or a pencil in my hand for more than a minute before my hands would start to cramp up.
It was horrible.
Then I started taking relief factor.
I'm painting a storm.
I am writing.
I'm doing anything with my hands that I thought I would never be able to do again, all because of relief factor.
I know if you're like me, you're a skeptic.
You're like, it's not going to work for me.
That's exactly how I felt.
70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month.
I'm one of those people.
It is Relief Factor.
Go to Relieffactor.com or call the number 800, the number four relief.
8004 relief or Relieffactor.com.
Feel the difference.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
We're joined now by Pat Gray, his pronoun.
are him and her.
I don't know how it works, but
I have some and us, by the way.
Him, her, us. Thank you.
Thank you.
I want to tell you, I'll give you an update on the
chaco, chaco-taco
scandal. Klondike has now
decided to drop
chaco-tacos, and they
won't make them anymore. I think
this is due to their racism
against those people that come across
the border or who like tacos.
but they're not going to make them.
And yesterday I was pretty upset.
Stu was too.
I am still very upset about this development.
I luckily have a crack investigative team.
In this case, well, it was me.
But I get to the hard-hitting facts here.
I want you to know, Chaco Taco, not made by Klondike.
Chaco Taco is a unilever.
Unilever.
product. Okay. But Klondike is owned by Unilever. So yes, it actually is still made by
Klondike. Okay. If you want to play these word games, I'm sorry. Inflation is starts with
two quarters of decline of our GDP. That's what it is, Stu. That's what it is. You want to
change the language? Go ahead. Anyway, evil unilever.
You're never going to want a chaco taco
again. Let me give you some headlines
from Bloomberg. Unilever
CEO
sees Biden victory as a
positive for climate change
and plans to detail
the carbon footprint of all
of its products, including
chaco tacos.
Next headline.
Meet the next
George Soros. Unilever's
Paul Pullman uses corporate
weight to push progressive causes and globalism.
Next headline, food and consumer goods giant Unilever suspends all imports and exports of
products to Russia, including Chaco Taco.
Next headline, top 10 contributors to the Clinton campaign.
The CEO and the guy who started Unilever.
That's right.
That's right.
He is also an advocate for the two-state solution.
Next headline, UN Climate Conference sponsor, Unilever, is among the world's biggest plastic polluters.
That's right.
I think part of Chaco Taco is made of plastic.
And Unilever continues to work in Iran while targeting Facebook for divisiveness.
those
that's all funded
all of that hate
funded by you
desiring and buying a chaco
taco taco
I say I'm glad
they're dead
Glenn
if Unilever
directly and intentionally
released the monkey pox virus
I would still buy
chaco tacos
yes I'm not saying
boycott them
okay I'm not saying that
okay I'm just saying they're dead to me
but I can't live
without a jaco taco.
All right.
The next one, I would like to talk to you and Pat about the U.S. mega millions.
Nobody won.
And now the jackpot is just over $1 billion.
And I just would like to talk about the scam element of the lotto.
And that is, I think it says everything we need to.
know about the American people.
No one takes the billion dollars.
They always take the cash payout.
Which is a scam in and of itself.
They advertise it as a billion dollars and then there's a whole different number for what people actually get.
It's a lot lower.
A lot lower.
This one is 6002.5.
602.5 million.
So it's 40%.
So you're leaving.
You are leaving 400,000, 400,000.
dollars on the table. I think this says that the American people are saying two things.
Yeah, I don't think the state's going to be able to be around that long. Thirty years, no way.
They're never, I'm going to, I'm only going to get less than half of it, so I might as well take less than half now and just enjoy myself.
The other thing it says is possibly, and Stu brought this up, inflation.
our belief in inflation.
Maybe the belief that this inflation, not all that transitory,
because they're thinking themselves like,
oh, that payment were given these people at 30 years.
I mean, it's going to be worth nothing.
It's be like $12 we're paying them at the end of this time.
At the end of this time.
It's going to say $6 million,
but that $6 million payment's going to be worth about 15 cents
to the average American today.
So people are like, I know what happens here.
I know you're printing money,
constantly. So why wouldn't I take all the money now and at least try to get some interest
and investment off of it? I think that's really the calculation a lot of people are making.
But you know, you would think that with all of the, because is there a lotto winner that has
not destroyed themselves?
No. Somebody who's won the lotto and is like, I'm going to buy up a really fancy trailer now
and they just blow all their money on hookers and trailers. I think.
think. And a nice car. I'm going to get, I'm going to get a Ford Explorer. And so they blow it on really
fancy cars like that. And before you know, they're broke. Is there no one who has had the
common sense to say, I don't think I could manage that much money. So I'll take it a year at a time.
So I never, for 30 years, I never have to worry about money. There's nobody that says that.
I think some do.
I don't think it's everybody takes the cash paper, but the overwhelming majority of people do.
And I think, you know, a financial advisor would say, well, you can take all this money.
You could throw it in investments.
You can make 5, 10% a year.
And it's going to be worth a lot more than this long-term payout.
Will it be worth 40% more?
Well, if you believe, if you or, you know, these are people who are trying to get you to manage their money, like your money.
So like, yeah, they're like, yeah, of course, we'll get 10%.
every year, it'd be worth a lot more.
I mean, I would be skeptical of that.
I would also be terrified of having that much money at one given time.
You know, like, I honestly wouldn't even know, I wouldn't even know what to do with it.
Honestly, it would take research for me to even figure out what I should actually do with that much money.
I mean, they only, you're only protected for $250,000 per account, right, in the bank.
So you're, you're going to have to do all sorts of stuff to protect that money.
money. You'd think you're right, Glenn, like getting a check, I think it starts with, I was just
reading this. I think it's, it starts, the first check comes in at like a million dollars and then
it escalates each year. I think maybe it starts at 1.5 million and escalates each year. And by
the end, it's over six million, like in your 30 years. So, see, I just, so it'll keep up with
inflation. I mean, that's the, that's what they're saying. Right. I mean, do you believe that? I
certainly don't. I just don't believe a 30-year payout from any government entity is ever going to be paid out.
To your advantage. Yeah. If you have a pension, do you believe that you're going to be getting all that money?
I mean, I think a lot of people don't, you know, that are in that position.
So do you pay, when they, when they take out the 600, is it, no, 400 million.
million dollars out of this billion, you still have to pay taxes on the 600 million.
So you're probably only getting three, I mean, only getting, but you, that's really only
million.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, how do you make ends meet on that?
Well, and this is the, this is the problem, though.
What you just did is the problem.
This is how they get away with it, right?
Like, you know, and the, the initial payout for.
the full option is $602.5 million.
And everyone says, well, I mean, I know.
They said they were to get me a billion, but I'm only getting $600 million.
What am I going to do?
Complain about $600 million.
And then you pay taxes, much of it going back to the same source you supposedly won the money from.
Yeah.
Then you're down to about $350, $350,000.
$350 million.
And then you say, oh, well, I'm still getting $350 million.
That's a lot of money.
And that's true.
However, they've scammed you now.
70% is gone.
70% of the money they were supposedly giving you.
Yeah.
I mean,
it is a scam.
Can you imagine having any other product being able to get away with that kind of scam,
where 70% of what they said they were going to give to you is gone?
Would they be dragging to false advertising court?
Like, think of like some shady, you know, supplement that makes big claims about, you know,
healing your diseases or whatever.
Even when they don't even directly say it, like, it'll be like, well,
you know, take this and it'll help
X, Y, and Z, and you'll solve
all these big health problems. Like these, they get
dragged through courts all the time.
Like the coronavirus
vaccine then? That's what we're talking about?
That's a, of course, Glenn. That was exactly
the point I was making. Thank you for bringing it up.
You're welcome.
This happens all the time.
People have been stopped
from producing
products for the rest of their lives
because they go on to shady
cable channels and run
Advertisement. You don't even have to be,
you don't even have to be shady,
Stu. You've got, you know,
ads, 60 second ads where they are
forced to say, you might die
from this erection. Right.
I mean,
that's true.
All of this, and they don't have to say any of it.
They just say, yeah, it's a billion dollars. It's pretty
exciting. And then a very small print underneath
it says, actually, it's only 600 million. And then
you pay taxes and you're down to
300 million. Plus,
Of course, every time, if you just let that money sit in the bank and it gets your 0.1% interest you might be getting, when that money comes in, you're going to have to pay taxes on that, too.
And then when you spend the money, you're going to have to get taxed on.
You know, when you buy that yacht, you're going to have to get another sales tax on top of it.
Here's one of the changes I want to because I don't want a great reset.
I want a great reboot.
So we just turn the machine off and turn the machine on.
again, okay, and all the bugs, and we reset to the original programming.
Here's something that drives me out of my mind.
My house tax and my property tax.
I never really own my property, ever.
No.
Ever.
I mean, I could pay my property off, but I don't really own it, and if I don't pay my
income tax, I lose my house.
This is, that's a total scam.
That's bigger than the law.
And then, and then on top of that, when you die, now they're going to stick you with another tax.
Yes.
Because you died, we're going to take half of your everything you accumulated when you were alive.
It's so immoral and wrong.
I don't know how we've allowed them to get away with it.
No, and all it does is keep the people who have vast sums of money.
It keeps them in power and wealth.
because they're never going to, it's no retro, your grandfathered in.
If your grandfather was Nelson Rockefeller, don't worry about it.
You've got money for the rest of your life and your children and your children's
children's lives.
But we've got to stop these people from being able to gather money and do this.
You know, do exactly what we've done for generations now.
All right, back in a minute.
Thanks, Pat.
Pat Gray from Pat Gray, Unleashed.
This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
There is a very important article that I found on CNBC.
Here's how to recognize a recession.
And it's not what you think.
Now, I'm only 50, what, 7, 58 years old.
So it's almost 60 years of knowing what a recession is
because that's what they've said to us forever.
until the progressives took over.
Now we need to redefine what a recession is.
For instance, it's, yeah, sure, sure.
It's two quarters of the economy, the GDP contracting, two quarters in a row.
We've always defined it like that, although we've also known that there are other factors,
or other factors that go into it.
But they're saying, this is not a recession,
and we won't know if this is a recession for at least a year.
Oh, okay.
So just about the time that all the elections are over,
in between the next election and this election,
that's when we'll find out definitely not near an election.
Okay, all right.
So they're saying that this is,
the incorrect term. I think everybody knows we're in a recession, and I don't care what you call it,
but this is what a recession feels like. In fact, I think a crisis is probably a better definition
of a recession, but I don't care what you call it. It's what it feels like and what it actually
is that matters. You know, it's like people saying, oh my gosh, there's a huge pod of
octopi coming our way.
Actually,
it's octopuses.
No, it's octopi.
It's octopuses. You're both
going to be dead with the huge pod
of octopuses coming your way.
If you're arguing about the stupid turn,
I don't care what you call it.
Lots of things with eight legs are
swimming towards us quickly.
So now they're saying that
we'd be laughing stocks if we
said that we had a recession when we were
creating 400,000 jobs a
month. Although that's not true. Are you saying that the job number, it didn't have 400,000?
Yes. But what I'm saying is a lot of those jobs, A, aren't created. They're not like, you know what,
we're going to build a tower to the sky, which, don't get me wrong, I think the progressives
might at some point propose. We're going to build a big,
tower to the sky.
Um, no, these are jobs like, can somebody please take the job at the friolator, please?
These are old jobs that we still haven't filled.
And so the jobs that are not being created, but are now being filled in many cases are
being filled by a person who already has another full-time job.
and I love the
I love the
Twitter responses on this one
from the blue check marks this week.
I said that Monday
and the blue check marks
they didn't argue with the fact
because the fact is the fact
so they just said
that's just
that's not Biden's fault
that just means those jobs suck
wait
that just means that those two jobs suck
well doesn't
every Republican get that charge that, yeah, but their, their comeback, their growth is all with
low-paying fast food jobs. Okay, so that's not the critique this time. The critique is somehow
or another, the main job that people have sucks and doesn't pay them enough, so they have
to take another crappy job. Okay, okay. Well, why are their only crappy job?
Hey, maybe because we're not building a tower to reach the sky.
This happens all the time, and it is so important.
When you can't win the argument, you just change the language.
Men can have babies.
All right, well, then I don't ever want to be left out of the abortion debate ever again.
Men can have babies.
That's not a baby.
That's a fetus.
Can you please look up the Latin definition of the word fetus?
Because I think it means, baby!
They change the words all the time.
Now listen, we, this administration is changing some critical words.
For instance, recession.
Why?
Because we're in one.
And it's not advantageous for them to say we're in a recession.
session. So change the meaning. How about this one? We're surrounded by domestic terrorists.
Now, we all know what a domestic terrorist is. We all know what terrorism is.
Terrorism is creating fear through some sort of a incident that is aimed to change a policy of a person
a corporation, or a country.
Some sort of threat or actual use of violence to change policies.
That's what terrorism is.
Mm-hmm. Okay. All right.
Well, that would include, I think, marching at night,
threatening our Supreme Court justice.
It would also include those who went in on January 6th.
and actually bust down the door and were threatening people.
Yes, that would be terrorism too.
Parading as a grandmother on January 6th,
because that's what a lot of people are being charged with, parading,
that's not terrorism, that's parading.
Do you know that I don't think anyone at any time in any country
in the history of mankind have ever said that parents,
showing up at a meeting saying, hey, guys, you're teaching my kid to question their own sexuality and whether they're a male or a female?
I don't think that's a good idea. Terrorist. There's nobody that's ever to find a parent caring about his child as a terrorist.
Until now. So we've had that change. We've had the change. This is all from the Biden administration. We've had the change.
We've had the change of the word insurrectionist.
Now, what is insurrection?
Because I would define that as people who are plotting a hostile takeover of the country,
which isn't what the right is doing.
It's what the left is doing.
It's what Antifa does, you know, along with terrorism.
How about voter suppression?
That's a new one.
That's a new one.
We all know what voter suppression is.
Somebody standing at the polls going,
I don't think you're going to vote today, boy.
That's voter suppression, saying, no, I don't think Mark Zuckerberg should pay to have these collection boxes there out, you know, all throughout the community.
and we should change the way we're voting is voter suppression.
That's just called going back to the way it always has been.
The other word that he's changed is illegal alien.
Now, we used to say those are people who are migrants who are entering the country illegally.
alien, not meaning those from outer space, but those from another country.
They are alien to our country, just like an American in Germany is an alien to Germans.
Got it? It's not a derogatory thing. It's just the definition of what that person is in that country that is foreign to them.
so alien is under attack, has been under attack for a while, but now we have undocumented
citizens or non-citizen.
And the new language saying that they're a non-citizen, I don't know how inclusive that
really is.
I mean, it sounds pretty dehumanizing myself.
I mean, you're a non-citizen, so what does that make me?
Nothing?
these are these are going illegal aliens are going to be defined as voters soon so they're changing
the language because what was it sarah that michel obama said years ago something that baroque
and barat knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices we're going to have to change our
conversation we're going to have to change our traditions our history we're going to have to
have to move into a different place.
Yeah, yeah.
Here's another thing that Biden is changing.
The definition of pro-police.
Now, what does anti-police mean?
Let's start there.
Anti-police, that would be someone who says,
we should abolish the cops.
All policemen are dirty.
All policemen are dirty.
racist.
That they, they're just higgledy, pigledy, get up in a morning, throw their badge on,
even if they're still just wearing a towel.
They're so excited to go out and just shoot black people.
That, I think, would be anti-police.
But Biden is changing this.
If you're anti-police, you're someone who disagrees with his gun bans.
that makes you anti-police
now I'm trying to figure that out because
I don't think it's
an AR that is shooting policemen
I mean you could say well it's just anti-people
it's anti-school safety
you could say that wouldn't be accurate
but you could say that
anti-police
why is he changing the definition
of the word anti-police
because we're riddled with crime.
They have to blame the gun.
Because the gun is tied directly in people's minds to red state people.
Red state people are Donald Trump people.
So you make it all about the gun because the people in the cities, they understand how to stay safe.
Really? Do you, New York? Do you?
Is that really? Hmm? I didn't. Wow, that's news to me.
Oh, by the way, when you change the language, you can then claim that you're a big part in making gas prices so much lower and people are happy about it.
That's the latest claim from Joe Biden.
We now have 40,000 gas stations in the United States where the price of gas is only $3.99.
Oh, my gosh.
Well, thank you.
Thank you for the...
By the way, $3.99 is still the highest Americans have ever paid for gas.
Some restrictions apply.
Hawaii and California, not included.
$3.99.
Let's celebrate, everybody.
You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Hey, Stu, does it make me some sort of a bigot for asking the question, if Monkey Pox is,
spread mainly, mainly, you know, amongst the gay community and it is branching out,
how come no one will tell us why the two children have it? And it's not that I mean,
I just want to know that it, those children got it from a parent who was snuggling with them
or whatever. And I'm sure that's the case. But I so distrust the media. I just, I would like to know
all of the facts of things now?
I don't think there's any problem with wanting to know all the facts at all.
I think it's important to know the facts.
I think the one of the issues with monkey pox is it's not an STD, you know, so I think some
people are getting that confused.
Yeah.
Right.
It's skin to skin, prolonged skin to skin.
It has to be more than a handshake.
But it's absolutely, you're cuddling on the couch with your kids and your face right next
to each other, you know, or, you know, or.
you're, you know, whatever, you're sitting there laying with them on the couch.
They don't have to be naked or anything else.
Right, right.
But I just, they won't say how these kids contracted it, which is, I think, kind of important
because it's not a sexually transmitted disease.
Right.
And if the answer is maybe it can be passed, like, for example, maybe you have an, if one of
your, a monkeypox sore is open in some way, maybe it can be passed in much shorter contact.
And if that's true, it's very important for me.
to know, right? Like, you know, we should know. I heard an interview with a guy,
uh, it was the New York Times podcast or maybe ABC News where they were talking about to a guy who
had monkey pox and he's doing much, much better, uh, now. And he had apparently, apparently said it was
incredibly painful. And he had, you know, sores all over his body and apparently really,
really rough. But he's now feeling much, much better. And he has, uh, only one more sore left. And
or pimple left from monkeypox, it's in the palm of his hand.
And I was like that's a.
You should know.
You should know when you're shaking hands.
I know they were all over us on COVID to not shake hands with people,
but it might be something you want to consider in this situation.
But they were saying that if you were to shake hands with this person and then, for example,
touch your eyes, you could still pass it that way, which, you know.
Sure, sure.
That's obviously significant.
But we should know.
Yeah, you should know. We should know. We should know. There's a, you know, there's a White House press conference in the Rose Garden today. The president is clear of COVID now. And so we're glad to hear that. But he's going to tell us all about COVID today in the Rose Garden, which I think is so great. I wish, I honestly, I think probably he's better now because he has such a great doctor in Jill Biden. She's an amazing doctor, really.
And well, I don't take it from me.
Here's Whoopi Goldberg on Jill Biden.
And Dr. Jill becomes a surgeon general.
His wife.
Yeah.
Joe Biden's wife, because she, you know, he would never do it.
But she, yeah, she's a hell of a doctor.
She's an amazing doctor.
I just like a PhD.
I don't have a doctor.
Okay, so she's, she's an amazing doctor.
She's, she has a PhD in education.
So, I mean, I just, it's one thing, by the way, this is she's already apologized for this.
This is an old clip of Whoopie.
But it is amazing to me that she says she's a doctor and an amazing doctor with authority, like she knows.
Like she, I had a physical with her and it was fun.
It was fun.
And she found leprosy and treated it before it ever became a problem.
She's an amazing doctor.
you have no information.
She's a PhD in education.
Such a great clip because it shows how they talk about this stuff every single day on the air.
Every single day.
On that particular show and many others.
But like she literally has no information of whether she's a good doctor or not.
She only has a positive impression because she's married to a Democrat.
That is literally all she knows about the situation.
And she's trying to convince millions of people that this person should be appointed.
in general.
Surgeon general based on that.
Right.
That's how dumb these people are.
And I can speak because
I, yeah, you are a doctor.
I can speak on, because I am a doctor.
I'm a doctor.
And whoopee, any time you need surgery,
call me.
By the way, Vogue just did a piece on
Olena Zelensky.
That is the
wife of the
leader of Ukraine.
She's on the front page. And, you know,
it's really nice because I remember when
another foreigner was
on the front page who did some amazing
things. What was
her name? Melania Trump. Oh, no,
wait, she wasn't on the cover of Vogue
or any
magazine.
Hmm.
That's weird, seeing that she was a
model and everything.
But she's not a doctor. So,
by the way, Ukraine is
the friendliest place on earth.
Vladimir Zelensky has come out and said that he would like Ukraine to charge J.P. Morgan,
Chase, City, HSBC.
He wants them prosecuted for war crimes because they are still doing business in Russia and with Russia.
And normally, I think.
think war crimes is a, you know, it has to have a pretty high threshold there and some
ally of ours, huh? But anyway, in this case, I don't really have a problem with the banks
being charged with war crimes. You know, now maybe it's not based entirely on what they're
doing with Russia, but St. Louis is being sued after the mayor signed.
a bill using COVID relief to fund abortion travel costs.
Now, I know when we voted for COVID relief, oh, we didn't.
Well, I know when they voted for COVID relief and they said, you know, these states really need it.
I didn't think like three years later they'd still have a bunch of it laying around that the city could go,
hey, here's something we can do with that money and pay for abortions, but.
But, hey, no big deal.
Beverly Hills, city council, has voted to not enforce L.A. County mask mandates.
Never thought I would be all right, Beverly Hills.
But I am.
And this one from CNN, by the way, tomorrow.
Tomorrow, an epic takedown of CNN.
An epic takedown.
They wrote a story about Christian nationalism.
Oh, no.
That really, it's white Christian nationalism that, I mean, if you're a member of a church and it's, you know, it's not all progressive, you're just part of this Christian nationalist movement and you should be eliminated.
Well, anyway, they wrote that on Sunday, and the article is still trending on Twitter.
And I didn't respond to it on Sunday because I wanted to do some research with something that CNN would have in the old days recognized as facts.
An epic takedown of that article.
Read it. Be prepared because it's insane.
And I have the actual documents and records to prove it.
But CNN has also said now, red states are building a nation within a nation.
The case was just the latest example of how red states supported by Republican appointed judges
are engaging in a multi-front offensive to seize control of national policy,
even while Democrats hold the White House and nominally control both houses of the House and the Senate.
Red states are moving a social policy sharply to the right within their own borders
on issues from abortion to LGBTQ rights to classroom censorship,
while simultaneously working to hobble the ability of either the federal government
or their own largest metro areas to set a different course.
To a degree that was once, just a decade ago, unimaginable.
This broad offensive increasingly looks like,
an effort to define a nation within a nation, one operating with a set of rules and policies
that diverge from the rest of America more than any, almost any previous era. Well, any previous
era that was post the progressive era. Yeah. Yeah. Any, any era really passed, oh, 1990. Yeah. Yeah.
This is what we call constitutional rights.
You should read about it, CNN.
It's in the Bill of Rights, and you can find that.
Just Google, it's very hard to find, and understand when you read it, too.
It's so hard.
There are words on the page.
But just specifically look at the ninth and, well, the eighth, ninth and tenth amendment to the Constitution.
and you'll understand that states have the right to do that.
And the federal government, for instance, health care, cannot give you that right
because that right is not in the Constitution.
And they don't print rights.
God gives us rights.
So a state that wants to do health care, they can do that.
I have no problem with the state of Massachusetts.
doing it. The reason why states don't do it is because it doesn't financially work unless you can
print money. So that's why they've kicked it up to the federal level because economically it
doesn't work. So if a state wants to do it, they have that right because of the Bill of Rights.
and it's supposed to be 50 little petri dishes,
50 little different experiments.
We're all supposed to be able to do things the way we want.
Why should I have to live like California lives?
Why does California get to dictate to me what I'm doing in Texas?
For instance, in California, they just,
well, they didn't actually pass a bill.
It was just one of the regulatory agencies in California.
that decided they had the power to start taking and billing you for the water that you have on your property if you have a well.
Now, I understand if I'm buying the water from some city project, you know, if I'm getting the water from a dam someplace else, yeah, you should charge me for the water because the state put the infrastructure in and everything else.
but when it comes to water on my land,
that's when we in Texas say,
get the hell off my land.
But why should I live like California?
They're insane.
And the people in California think we're insane.
That's fine.
Once in a while, maybe we'll visit each other.
You know, and we'll say,
those people are crazy.
They're good people.
They're good people.
but they're crazy, and I wouldn't want to live there.
A lot of Californians say that about Texas.
Wouldn't want to live there.
A lot of Texans say that about California.
That's the way it's supposed to be.
We don't have to live there.
Don't tell me what I can do and what I have to do, and I won't tell you.
It's crazy.
It's really crazy.
