Titre Tid, and fete you're made, This show actually requires homework from Stu. He has homework to bring back. Because on today's podcast, you might hear him query if this story is a horse on the highway, which is something that shorthand for things you just don't see all the time.

But are starting to see more commonly. Right. So we saw a horse on the highway in Philadelphia, on I-76. in Philadelphia, just running at Full Gowl. Okay. How it got onto the highway, I'll never know. But Stu brought one from London. I'm going to just share it real quick?

Sure, there's five horses running through the streets of London, and one or two of them seem to be covered in blood. We don't know why exactly at this time, but by tomorrow, I think we'll know the answer to that. Whose blood? How did it get there? There's a black horse in you. can't really see the blood, so it's not, it's like, it's not going to leave a stain. Right.

He's not like, oh, this is my nice coat of fur, you know, I'm never going to get it out. But the white horse? Just covered in blood. Like really covered in blood? Yes, I mean, all over the front and all over its legs. It's a lot of blood. A lot of blood. I mean, did it run through a blood bank?

I don't know. That might explain it. But I don't know what else would. All this and the issues of the day. Next.

Let me just let me just, you know, let me just start with the 79 to 18 vote in the U.S. Senate that passed the package that includes Ukrainian aid, Israel aid, and quote, other items. those other items, the TikTok sale went through. It just threw that one in there. Now, here's what's interesting. Not only did you now pay $60 billion to Ukraine. I'm sorry, is it 60? Yeah, it's 60 to Ukraine. You're also giving money to Hamas aid,

which we now know they are stealing the aid and then reselling it to the people of, Gaza, but don't worry. Hamas is, they're really good people. You also had a TikTok. Now, why did we want to ban TikTok? What was the Democrats' reason for wanting to stop TikTok had to sell it? Why? The Democrats' reason? I mean, the, I mean, the, the reason. The reason everyone talked about is that China and their influence and the fact that they can

get our data and all these other things. Data. It's a threat to the country. It's not all the dumb dancing, which is why I would ban it. Yeah, you know what was taken out of this bill? The banning of transferring American data to China. Taken out of the bill? Yeah, so it doesn't include it. No.

That includes that. So they have to sell it to someone who can then transfer it to China? Yep. I mean, what the hell are they doing? What power did they gain? What power did they gain? I think Mike Lee is, I mean, I just think he, is he's on the edge.

He said yesterday, they think they're Churchill. They're congratulating themselves for spending money that does not belong to them. The money we don't have and we'll have to borrow and print. Spending other people's money to fight someone else's war against their will isn't heroic. It's cowardice. It doesn't end well for any political party whose elected officials repeatedly display contempt for the party's most faithful voters. Dems don't do this to their base.

Dems fight for their base. Now let me ask you this. When the Democrats will say to the people who are shouting death to America and they will change their policies because they want the death to America crowd to vote for them, we can't get the repeal.

Republican Party to not spend $90 billion? They won't respond to the American people. What good are you? I've never seen this government grow at such a breathtaking speed. It is growing in powers. It's seemingly taking gigantic leaps every week. I'd like to know what power they got from the TikTok thing. They're not going to be talking about it, because it was cloaked by the Ukraine vote.

And every single one, there was 14, I think, was it 14, 15 Republicans. 15 Republicans stood up. Every other one of those Republicans, shame on you. Shame on you. You're saying, this is what they said. Well, this is the most important package to secure our nation. This is in our national interest. This is the most dangerous time we've lived in.

Well, we don't live in Ukraine. We live in the United States of America, and you won't secure our borders. So how are you protecting us? And let me ask you, if you know something, I'm so sick and tired of, well, you don't know the briefings, then give us the briefings. Then give us the briefings.

I have had it with these people in Washington just saying, well, you don't know the facts. Well, show me some respect. You work for us, not the other way around. Show us some respect if you have information that is so unbelievably dangerous. that it makes you violate the Fourth Amendment last week, makes you spend $90 billion this week. And by the way, the New York Times came out and said,

is $60 billion going to be enough for Ukraine? We don't think so. That's the story today. Of course it's not going to be enough. Of course it's not. We've already given them $100 billion. Right. And it hasn't, they haven't been able to get their territory back.

That is more of inflation adjusted dollars. This is more than we spent on the rebuilding, of Europe, the Marshall Plan. Where is this money? Where is it going? What is it doing? What do you, why do you think another $60 billion that we don't have should go to Ukraine? Why would you pass this bill saying it's all about our national security and you won't

close the borders? Republicans, you're worthless. You are worthless. Can I push back on this a little bit? Yeah, go ahead. You say, you know, you need to listen to the American people. The American people favor this in poll after poll after poll. It's not overwhelming.

The last poll was 55 to 43. They support it. 45. Now, is that Republicans? 45% of Republicans. So again, if you're talking about just Republicans and reacting to who they have, 45% of Republicans support. How about FISA?

I don't know. don't have a poll on five, but I can look one up. How about, how about voting? But hold on, you're running away from this issue here for a second. I mean, you have to acknowledge that this is not an open and shut issue as far as people's opinions. I agree with you that I don't want to be spending more money because I am terrified of this thing.

It's not even the money for me. I'm terrified of this thing spiraling out of control, especially with Joe Biden in charge of it. But like, it's not even for Republicans in open and shut. It's a split issue for Republicans and independence. And then, of course, somehow overwhelmingly supported by Democrats in opposition of everything they did for the past multiple decades. But still, like, it's not, I'm not saying that that's how they should make that decision. I think they should make that decision with a critical look at the evidence.

And I think the evidence shows that our position would be the more appropriate one. But it's not like they're ignoring every Republican. It's a split issue. Here's what my problem is. Okay. It is. You say it's 45% that then that should be then represented by 23, 24 votes in the Senate. Maybe split.

It's 15. You know why it's only 15? Because the others were in a briefing where it was really spooky. And well, we got to do something because Putin is going to do. Yes. Okay. Then if that is your answer, why won't you also? secure our border in the same package.

Well, they can't get it through. I mean, it's not going to, the Democrats are not going to vote for it. That's why. I mean, I think Republicans would, they voted in the House overwhelmingly for a bill. If they were really, if the Democrats were really like, oh my gosh. I don't believe the Democrats. I'm not saying I believe the Democrats at all. But, I mean, trying to get the border thing through, they did try to, you know,

the House tries, has tried multiple times to get that bill through. And the Democrats, of course, will ignore it because. I can't even state the reason for why they ignored it at this point, especially considering it's weighing heavily on the candidacy of their candidate, right? Like, I mean, it is a major problem for Joe Biden, but they're never going to address it. We know that. You know, they came up with a bill that they did try to pass through the Senate that Republicans stopped.

I think, you know, we looked at the bill in detail. It was not a very strong bill, not nearly as strong as the one the House passed, and I think would have had all sorts of holes in it. So we went over those problems. But as they will point out, we tried to pass a bill about border security. I don't buy that argument because the bill sucked. But still, what you're going to get through a Democratic Senate is going to suck. Can I ask you, do you think that Mike Johnson is representing the base of the Republican Party?

Largely, no. It's particularly in these issues. I mean, I don't think it's as clear. I guess my point only is it's not as clear cut. as maybe we feel it is here at the blaze or on talk radio. It's not. But what is the direction of the people? Which direction are they going?

I think they're getting, Republicans are getting much more skeptical over things like FISA. Uh-huh. And that is something that has developed over the past, what, 20 years. So if you want to live in the past with Mitch McConnell, hey, keep doing what you're doing, Johnson. You think Mitch McConnell's a man of the future? No. The man can't even get through multiple sentences without stopping. Exactly right.

And times have changed and the Republican Party refuses to change. They have got to understand this is a new world. It's not 1981 anymore. I agree. I agree. They should, of course, acknowledge that. But it's also part of it to acknowledge that if we're saying they need to change, we're the ones changing, right?

I mean, like that would be the right thing to do. But it's not crazy for a Republican party to support funding an effort to stop Russia. There's a difference between changing and waking up. Okay. First of all, the only thing constant in life is change. And if you're not changing, then you're not learning. You're not growing. Okay?

Agreed. But we are also waking up. I don't think on my view of America, I haven't changed. I've opened my eyes and I have seen new information that I had never seen before. I didn't know. I wouldn't have believed it. But I believe it now. And I understand it now. I understand that there is a giant progressive game that has been going on for the last 100 years. And it is destroying our country. I understand that the left, not the Democrats per se, because they don't exist anymore. The left, the Marxists, the radicals, the anti-constitutionalists, the people who are. who are in bed with global corporations, whatever your reason is on the left, you're all together in a nice little cabal.

You might hate each other, but you're in this nice little cabal. And you all have one idea. Destroy America. That's what the Democratic Party has allowed into the gates, and now they're eating anybody who is a regular Democrat. Okay, well, If that's what you want, that's what you get, Democrats.

If that's what my Democratic mayor or neighbor who still has their eyes closed wants, I will do everything I can to help them understand. This isn't 1981 anymore. You're fighting a different battle. The republic is at stake. The same thing with the Republicans. you're supposed to represent me. How about this one? $90 billion on Ukraine. You say that's going to protect me and my family. We don't have the money. So you're hurting my family by spending extra

money. One other thing. You say you have to pass this bill to sell TikTok, but you didn't include transfer of my data to China. So how are you held? helping me. If you're representing me, you're not helping. You're hurting my family. You're hurting my children. Every time you spend a dollar, you're making it harder for me to put food on the table. You're making it impossible for my children to be anything but slaves.

Don't, don't call yourself a representative. How dare you? How dare you? Do you represent the United States of America or your own special interest? When's the last time any of you people stood up with maybe 20 in the Senate? Maybe 20 in the Senate? When's the last time you stood up and actually said, damn it, this is not in the Constitution of the United States?

In fact, it goes against the Constitution. Here's the thing. we are living in a time where the forgotten man has about had enough who's the forgotten man let's say person a is marching in the streets and saying hey hamas is great and we should spend even more money to fly uh illegals into our country and so person a convinces person c to take money away from person B and give it to person A or somebody else. The forgotten man is person B.

Wait a minute. You're destroying my life. You're taking my money away from me. You're doing things that are going to destroy the future of my children. Wait a minute. What about me? Do I have a voice here? Do I have a voice?

Well, yes, you only have. 45% this country was designed not to be majority rule majority rule is very dangerous that's a mob we're also not supposed to be run by the minority either we're not supposed to have a little fringe group that can make themselves seem bigger than they are and control everything we're not supposed to be ruled by nine judges. We're not supposed to be ruled by people that are in three letter agencies that no one elected, no one even really knows who they are, and they are telling you exactly what you can and cannot do. That's not constitutional. That's that's nowhere in our system of government. Nowhere. But why is all this stuff happening? Because

Congress no longer controls the purse. The White House is completely high on power through the agencies, and it's not just this president. It's been all of them lately. It's Fiat, executive orders, or in the case of this president, even worse. It's having agencies do all the things that you can't get through Congress. Where are you? where are you? Well, you're being silenced. We have one election. This is not the most important

election. I'm so sick and tired of hearing this. The most important election of my lifetime. This may be the last election in the republic that we call the United States of America. It'll still be called by that name, but it will not be free. Look at the pace of the power accumulation in Washington, do you see that the numbers that came out on how many abortions Blind Parenthood did last year? Yeah, it wasn't a low number. Wasn't a low number. No.

Wasn't in a low number. And they're very proud of that. But they can do better. They can this year, we can break that record and kill even more babies. It's wonderful. Now, the way to stop that would be to protest or drive around in your feet. truck or whatever. I mean, at least you're out there pitching.

No offense, but I don't think it's the most effective form of changing people's mind. What is is actually listening to the mothers. Most of these mothers are afraid. They are powerfully alone. Everyone in their life is telling them to abort the child. Everybody in their life is saying it's not really a child at this point. If you go into a preborn, you're a, you're a, you're a, a future mother and you go in to a preborn, they'll give you a free ultrasound because of somebody

like you. They're $28 a piece. And when they show the mom with a free ultrasound, the baby, and she hears the heartbeat, she doubles the chances. That's doubling the chances that mom picks life. Then they just talk to her and talk to her about, you know, you're not alone. We're here. We're for the first two years of the baby's life for you and the baby. That's how we change things, being more Christ-like.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. Last night I was writing a friend of mine and we were talking about the problems that are going on and some things that are happening. And I finished my response to him with God Save the Republic. And for the first time, I've written that a few times before. But for the first time, it rang different tune. It wasn't just like, hey, and God bless America. I meant it, I think like the founders meant it.

God save the Republic. I put in my studio today a painting that I hang in my office. I painted it about a year ago. It was just kind of like an old, it was based on kind of like this feeling of the old advertisements that would be painted on a wall, you know, a building. It just says, God save the Republic. The eyes of the world are watching us right now.

Let me go to Andrew Bailey, who's going to talk about our, Banana Republic now. He is the Missouri Attorney General, and we wanted to talk to him a little bit about the Trump case now, the criminal hush money case. Welcome. How are you, Andrew? Doing well. Thank you for having me on. I tell you, I too am anxious for the health and welfare of our republic because it is absolutely tottering on the edge of slouching towards a third world banana republic tyrannical dictatorship at this point. It seems to be coming faster and faster.

The government, I've never seen the government grab as much power at a breathless pace. I mean, the last couple of months has just been like, wait, wait, wait, wait, what? And I don't think people understand they haven't felt any of the effects of this yet. It's still being built. I think that's absolutely right. And, you know, the right to free speech is fundamental to who we are as Americans. It's in the very first amendment for a reason the founding fathers understood. that we needed a free, fair, and open marketplace of ideas, and that the people would get to the truth through competitive debate.

And yet what I see in the Trump prosecution for the quote-unquote crush money case is a rogue prosecutor, weaponizing the criminal justice system to silence a political opponent and a judiciary who is enabling them to do that. I mean, think about it. The president of the United States of America, Donald Trump has First Amendment rights as well, and especially during a campaign season, yet what's happening here is he's been silenced, can't even talk about his own trial. Don't forget the gag order,

the traditional understanding of a gag order, is intended to protect the defendant's right to a free trial. Well, Donald Trump is the defendant. If he wants to talk about his trial, he has a right to do that, and the rest of us have a right to hear what he's saying. It's not only his right, but ours is potential listeners. Yeah, because usually the defendant,

is the one that, you know, would need those First Amendment rights. We're supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. So why can't? Yeah. Well, and the whole idea here is that the prosecutor doesn't go out and poison the well of potential jurors against the defendant. But it has nothing to do with the defendant's right to speak out in his own defense. I would point out that, you know, in this country, there's a longstanding tradition. that the First Amendment absolutely prohibits prior restraint.

There is no reasonable debate to the contrary. The founders completely understood and agreed with the concept that the First Amendment was prohibiting prior restraint. In other words, the government cannot stop you from talking before you say something. And so that's what the gag order is. And the United States Supreme Court has traditionally analyzed gag orders against the backdrop of the First Amendment.

And there's a strong presumption against gag orders. The three factors the court looks at in determining whether they're constitutionally valid is, number one, the nature and the extent of the news coverage. Well, here, there was going to be ample news coverage regardless of what Donald Trump is or isn't because the media is all over this. And by the way, it's completely stilted against Donald Trump and is enabling the sham prosecution. Number two, the court looks at whether other measures can mitigate against publicly. Well, no, they can't because, again, the left-wing media is in cahoots. They should do an in-kind contribution to Joe Biden for their coverage of this sham prosecution.

And then number three, how a gag order would prevent unfairness of the defendant. Well, here it is unfair to a neutral candidate from campaigning. Tell me how this, tell me, I mean, you are a very good prosecutor. I think you have like a 90% plus win rate in jury trials. Take me through how this is, take me through this case as if you were presenting it. How did this thing even come about? What are they really arguing here? And what should the defense be?

Well, the defense should just sit still, let it happen, and then appeal. There is no legal validity to these charges. Look at the charges themselves. Essentially, what Alvin Bragg is saying is that Donald Trump, before he was a presidential candidate, hired an attorney to make a contract with someone, and that the purpose of that contract was to make him a better candidate in an election, and that any contracts you hire an attorney to form on your behalf as your agent, you know, the run up to a political campaign is election interference.

Okay, that's fascinating. What he's done there is he's criminalized the practice of law. He's criminalized your right to have legal counsel in a contract. Our ability to contract is a fundamental civil right that we've had since the founding of our Democratic Republic. And I would point out as well that Alvin Bragg himself is a politician. So what we need now is a special prosecutor appointed to investigate any time Alvin Bragg ever hired legal counsel in the run-up to one of his campaigns. And those issues need to be investigated

and he needs to be prosecuted on the same standard. You know what's dripping with irony? Is that the motto of the Manhattan DA on their website is on standard of justice for all. That's great. If that's true, then Alvin Bragg needs to go to court and get a special prosecutor appointed to look into any time he's ever hired an attorney to contract on his behalf in the run-up to an election. How did this become a felony where he's faced? four years. Well, again, Alvin Bragg has perverted the law. I mean, what he's saying is that Donald Trump hiring an attorney to contract on his behalf

and then recording that an allegor book as a legal expense is somehow a false entry in a record. And that's not true. I mean, Donald Trump hired Michael Cohen to do legal work on his bat. A contract is a legal document. So again, what Alvin Bragg is doing, there are everybody, Democrats and Republicans alike. What Alvin Bragg is saying is that if you hire an attorney. to do legal work for you and try to enjoy the attorney-client privilege that's inherent, you know, fundamental to the right to counsel and the due process clause, that somehow that can be

a criminal offense. That can be a felony that can put you in prison. Well, now he's killed your ability to seek counsel for simple contract. I mean, again, this flies in the face of our constitutional structure and certainly flies in the face of the common law backdrop that the founders would have understood when they formed the Democratic Republic that we now enjoy, or at least for the time being. How do you feel about Trump's chances in New York City? Well, clearly, the media is stilted against him. You know, they're going to say that Donald Trump has interfered with an election by hiring an attorney to contractors on his behalf, when in fact, it's the media, Alvin Bragg and the judge who are interfering with an election

by silencing a political opponent in the heart of a presidential campaign. I mean, at the end of the day, this conviction will never stand appellate review. It can't. Because, again, it runs afoul of the Constitution and it runs afoul of the plain text of the statute. Alvin Bragg is trying to bend the law to meet the facts. That's not what attorneys do. Attorneys are supposed to apply the law to facts as presented to them. But here, he is stretching the law to capture facts that were never contemplated by the plain text of the statute he's using.

Yeah, I mean, the government turned it down, the federal government turned it down. I think he even turned it down, didn't he, at the beginning? And then brought it back up. Yeah, I think that's right. But look, I mean, this should surprise no one. Alvin Bragg had the long history of adversarial litigation against Donald Trump. When he worked for the New York State Attorney General's office, he sued Donald Trump numerous times. I mean, in Missouri, no judge would ever allow a prosecutor who's been involved in civil litigations against the party to then prosecute that party because there's an appearance of impropriety.

And here there's actual substantive impropriety. This is politically motivated. You can, that's a reasonable inference to draw from the fact, but you don't even have to have to, heard anything. Alvin Bragge said it himself. So what what precedent does this set? I mean, they keep trying to say, this is only because of Donald Trump. It's only because of Donald Trump. What does this do to, if he's found guilty on this, what does this do to our system? Well, this empowers prosecutors to weaponize the legal system, the criminal justice system, to go after political opponents. And that's exactly what happens in banana republics.

history is repeating itself. And, you know, Benjamin Franklin, when he walked out of the constitutional conventions and the media asked him, what kind of government have you given us? And he said, a republic, if you can keep it, we are losing it. If we allow these rogue prosecutors to abuse and weaponize the criminal justice system to go after President Donald Trump or anyone else, then we will absolutely be next. And it's, you know, again, we're looking at the gag order as a First Amendment violation. We're looking at the prosecution itself as a sham prosecution that's politically motivated. And I would think that the Democrats would have the kind of good sense to realize they're Republicans that want to take a shot at them, too. And so if these are the rules of the game,

they better be prepared to suffer the repercussions as well. Andrew Bailey. Thank you so much. Thanks for everything you're doing in Missouri. You had big shoes to fill, and you're feeling them nicely. Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey. Thank you. Thank you, sir. You bet. God save the Republic. best of the Glenn Beck program. I love reading Selina Zito, who writes a column in a good reporter.

A great reporter. She never flies anywhere, not because she's afraid to fly. She drives because it helps her understand the country. And because of that, she gets it. She just gets it more than other people, I think. Listen to the story. This is an absolute microcosm of America

today. It starts with a family business that everybody loves. That's in trouble. The oldest gas station in America still in operation. Ryan Hearts here in Blair County City. It got its start in 1908

when a local blacksmith decided to sell gasoline out of the back of his shop when the Model T was introduced. It's been open ever since. While architecturally it's a little underwhelming, the service is good because the people who do work there,

care about the work that they do, whether it's pumping gas, washing your windshield, or doing minor fixes on your car. It's important to them that you return. While Reinhardt holds the title of the oldest gas station in the country, it was another Altoona family that put a different kind of gas station

of excellence on the map. The Sheets family story. It's one of struggles. This family-friendly service station struggled with Salmonella breakout in 2004, but it retained a deeply local customer base and expanded well beyond its western Pennsylvania routes. Ask anybody who's stopped at sheets in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, North Carolina. With so much loyalty among the residents in the state, it made sense for President Joe Biden to do a photo op

at a sheets in suburban Pittsburgh last week after his visit would look. local steelworkers. He wanted to demonstrate that he was no different than any other person from Pennsylvania in his affection for the family-owned business. Biden went even so far as to pick up sandwiches for construction workers after pulling the presidential motorcade in to the Sheets gas station for gas. Now, I don't know about you, but if they actually needed gas, the Secret Service is not doing their job. So it was obviously a planned trip. Wearing his aviator glasses, he posed for a selfie with an employee.

Just one day, this is where it gets weird, just one day after the president's orchestrated sheets run, the Biden administration hit the privately held convenience store chain with a federal lawsuit in which federal officials say the company, he discriminated against majority job applicants. So wait, so wait. He picks sheets to stop at because it is a local favorite. Everybody knows it.

Everybody loves it. He wants to be the regular guy. So he stops there. He buys some sandwiches, give them out to, you know, local workers, gets back in the motorcade, drives off. And the very next day, his administration hits that gas company. with a discrimination suit and say they're discriminating against minorities. How does that make sense?

How does that make sense? Okay. So microcosm. All right. Local company in hard times. Next is the elite using the common man. He uses the elites come in and they're like, look at us. We're just like you.

They use whatever they have to use to appear to. to be just like you. Then once he's had the photo op, they destroy that company. They destroy the forgotten man, the average Joe. Quote, the theory, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, is that because the company uses criminal background checks

to screen job seekers, somehow that's a violation of the 19, 64 Civil Rights Act. What are they saying about minority applicants exactly with that theory? Hmm. The Civil Rights Act prohibits workplace discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion, and national origin. EEOC attorney wrote that a criminal background check causes a disparate impact because of race or other protected classifications. So hang on.

First of all, I don't even understand this. you're saying that there are minorities that are in prisons and they're going to be, there will be more criminals that are minorities. Seems to be what they're saying. It is. It is. But they are in their pitch. That's probably the institutional racism that made that happen initially.

So, okay, it doesn't matter. So here's microcosm point number three. Give the government an inch and they will take miles. The Civil Rights Act. is off the rails. Okay, off the rails. That's not what it was for. What are you talking about?

Another microcosm. Your community is safe and we're making it safer. But you won't allow the local convenience store to make sure that criminals are not a part of the work staff. Lawrence went on to say unemployment hiring practices must be shown by the employer to be necessary to ensure the safe. and efficient performance of particular jobs at issue. The suit said, Sheets discriminates against black Native American multiracial job seekers by weeding out applicants who have failed a criminal background check. Sheets employs nearly 25,000 employees in a stretch of Appalachia that cuts diagonally

through Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, and North Carolina. It's a company that gives back to the community through a charitable foundation has a tradition on the 4th of July of honoring customers by rolling the prices back on all types of fuel except for diesel at all 675 plus locations, and it always cost $1.776 per gallon. If you don't know what 1776 is about, well, then you're lost already. Selina Zito says Tugging, going after sheets

is like tugging on Superman's cape in Pennsylvania. Especially in central and western Pennsylvania. When you pull up to sheets, it's like pulling up to a home. It's especially so when the alleged violation is what common sense says

is good business. They just want to make sure the people who are interacting with the public are not criminals. This is a microcosm. They are not like you, but they try to image themselves like you. They say they're for people like you, but they go after companies that are run by people like you, that are part of the fabric of your community.

They are taking us apart one step at a time. And it seems like those steps are coming faster and faster and faster. and it's it's not a coincidence. They're taking apart communities. And they are also holding up communities. Like, for instance, in just outside of Detroit, where you have a huge Muslim community. And they're standing on the streets and they're holding rallies for the Palestinians.

And they're talking about death to America, death to Israel when you are courting those people who why in your wildest dreams would a president want somebody who's chanting death to America? I don't know if you've seen that what's happening now in, I know you're aware of what's happening on the campuses.

On the campuses all across the Ivy League and all across the country, they're now having liberated zones. And they're, they're hassling Jews, making everybody uncomfortable, chanting from the river of the sea, which means the annihilation of every Jew in Israel. That's what that means. From the river to the sea,

that's from east to west, the entire land is Palestinian. That means no Jews, no Israel. Now the universities and the students are passing out masks. And they're the N95 surgical masks. Now, why are they wearing the surgical masks all of a sudden? Because they weren't last week. Why are they this week? Huh?

Now, I understand, you know, when you're blocking traffic to the Golden Gate Bridge, I don't know if you saw this, but they were all in masks. I don't know if you saw the neo-Nazis that are marching down the streets in America. They're wearing masks, generally speaking. Why? Why is that? Why did the KKK wear masks? I just can't think of a reason.

Now, at New York University, they are linking arms to protect Gaza, solidarity, the encampment there, and they're wearing N95 masks, and they're saying it's because we want to remind you that COVID-19 is still very dangerous. No, it's not. No, it's not. I mean, have you seen the damage that masks did to our children? You know there are children now that still can't really speak? They're young kids that are way past, six months past the time where they should be speaking, but they can't speak.

Why? Because the first 18 months of their life, everyone around them wore a mask. Children watch your mouth. That's part of how. how they learn how to speak, how to use their mouth and their tongue. That's how they gauge facial expressions. Not just through your eyes. We have so damaged our children with these masks.

And we now know there was no science. There was no science behind it. In fact, the science, if there was any, said the opposite. They're only wearing masks because that's what you do when you're about to cut the head off of, you know, somebody that you want to declare jihad on. You wear a mask. Bad guys wear masks. Paranoid people wear masks now. And people who don't want their face to be able to be discerned. Normalizing masks in America, kind of a bad thing. Kind of a bad thing. These are bad guys. These are bad guys.

you're seeing the beginning of another Occupy Wall Street kind of movement. And if it goes like Occupy Wall Street, I mean, I'm again just struck by how Occupy Wall Street just disappeared. And then all the people that they were protesting, all of the big huge banks are now suddenly in line with all of the demands that Occupy Wall. They're funding them. They're funding the radicals and the Marxists. They're all in line for it. It's almost as if they made a deal. I wonder what kind of deal could be made with these people who are now shouting death to America, death to the Jews.

I wonder if we'd get any deal out of them. You know, just to calm them down, make them go away. But not really. 60% of the vans on Amazon come to vendors on depend on, like sack magic.
