What? What? What? What is it? I think you're falling apart. You're losing control. You're losing your ability to associate with reality. What? Just because I was having ice cream in Portland this weekend. Right. And I think the economy is booming. What? That makes me out of touch with things? Yes. Huh. Yeah. Like if you were to think, for example, that the economy right now, the one we're living in is strong as hell. Strong as hell. That's, that's, I mean, I don't. think anybody who says that is out of touch. No, I will say. Especially with an ice cream cone in there.

There is an association with hell, I've noticed. Yes. It's just a different one. Yes, yes. On today's broadcast on our program show, you are going to, you're just going to love it. The economy is strong as hell. And if you're whining about it, it's just because you don't know that you can save money. I'm not making this up.

You'll be able to save me. money on a coffee maker next year because of the inflation reduction act. So, I mean, right? Who doesn't want that coffee maker savings? Also, we talk about the Herschel Walker debate. He did, I thought, really, really well. Banks are now canceling people. They're not saying why. It's just kicking you out of the system. Huh? ESG, anyone? Religion. institutions are now being banned at Chase. We get into that. And I decided I'm going door knocking for a candidate.

He came out a couple of weeks ago and said, I'm going to get killed in the debate. I'm going to get killed. This guy is a preacher. He's used to talking all the time. I don't do this. I'm just a country boy. I'm a country boy.

And the country boy taught the city boy a few things, I think. It went shockingly really well for, and I say shockingly because he said, I'm going to suck. He did not suck. I don't think it was a clear knockout, but he did really well. Yeah, there's a way that you have a candidate who's a celebrity who's never done this before in his first ever debate like this. there's a story that goes, unfortunately, that ends in his campaign being destroyed. He gets on stage. He doesn't know what he's talking about.

He screws up, whatever. That did not happen at all in this. The fact that they don't have a potato thing like, you know, Dan Quail on this guy's first debate and only debate is quite a victory. He did well. He was prepared for the lines of attack that he expected to come from Warnock, which were very predictable. You know, Warnock, I think, came off as incredibly.

slimy. That would be the word that I would use to describe his performance. He's somewhat polished, right? You know, he's just, he is. He, as Herschel Walker pointed out, the guy's a preacher, he's been speaking publicly his entire life. Right. Right. So he was not, it was not like he, he was, he was stumbling over his, his own words or he didn't know he, he, he, where he looked flustered all the time, but he went to arguments that were obviously not real. He avoided, he was asked about what does he have any restrictions on abortion and as usual even though he was asked be clear be specific you know do you have any restriction on abortion all the way up to the last month did not answer the question avoided it and he just filibustered these times and I think the

I think the average person in Georgia could look at this and be like all right this guy just doesn't want to answer any of these questions right I mean that's a problem so let's go through some of the cuts here is Warnock cut 13 talking about black lives matter. Very quick, because he told me black lives matter. And if you think about it, Senator, in Atlanta, Georgia there's more black baby that is aborted

than anything. So if black lives matter, why are you not protecting those babies? And instead of aborting those babies, why are you not baptizing those babies? What a great line. Probably the best one. Here he is on

life. I said that's a lie. And you know what most thing I put, I put it in a book. One thing about my life is I've been very transparent. Not like the senator. He's hid things. But at the same time, I said that's a lie. And on abortion, you know, I'm a Christian. I believe in life. And I tell people this, Georgia is a state that respects life and I'll be a senator that protects life. And I said that was a lie and I'm not backing down. And we have Senator Warnock. People that would do anything. and say anything for this seat, but I'm not going to back down because this seat is too important to the Georgia people for me to back down right now. Here he is on also not backing down on support of Donald Trump. Walker, former President Trump is also considering a run for the White House in 2024. If you can give me a simple yes or no answer, and we'll give you time to explain as well. Would you support a Trump 2024 run?

Yes, I would. And let me tell you go, President Trump is my friend. has nothing to do with that he's my friend and I won't leave my allies which is what Senator Warnock and Joe Biden did in Afghanistan they left their allies

they left their allies and right now on a foreign stage a lot of these people don't trust us no more they don't trust us to be strong anymore so they're waiting to see who's going to stand up who's going to trust and they have no one to trust right now because I said President Trump is my friend

and he won't stand up with Biden when yet he's voted with him 96% of the time. Let's be real. It's interesting because when he says he doesn't want to stand up with Biden, that comes from a moment in the debate where he would not say, just right before this question was asked, he would not say whether he would support Joe Biden running in 2024. He wouldn't say that he should he run in 2024.

He was like, oh, I'm not thinking about it. I haven't put one moment of thought into 2024. Are you kidding me? this is 2022. It's a few weeks away. I haven't even thought about that. That's across my mind one time. Now, does anybody believe that the senator from Georgia has not thought about the 2024 election? Everyone watching that knew he was lying. And look, you may or may not like Donald Trump, but what you do know when you watch Herschel Walker answer that question is he's not lying. He's just telling you, you know what? You might not like Trump. He might not be your friend.

He might not be your kind of guy. I support him. He's my ally. I'm sticking with him. That was, I think, a really powerful part and talking about how both Warnock and Biden were arguing that everything went well in Afghanistan as we abandoned all of our allies there was a really powerful way of tying that all together. I mean, again, that's not something that a guy who's never been in a debate before can usually pull off. Yeah, he did really well because it seemed totally natural. Let me go to cut four, Herschel Walker. You know, I believe in reducing insulin, but at the same time, you got to eat right, because he may not know, and I know many people that's on insulin. And unless you have an eating right, insulin is doing you no good. So you have to get food prices down, and you've got to get gas down so they can go get insulin.

And you continue to patch yourself on the back, but right now families are starving. Right now families are hurting, and they're hurting because of the bills and the laws you're passing right now. Do you know that six out of ten Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. They just are barely making it. They've had to cut back on everything. Six out of ten. And the economy is booming? Yeah, I know.

And this goes to, there is a New York Times article today with an amazing headline. It's Democrats spent $2 trillion to save the economy. They don't want to talk about it. I mean, think about this. This is the central accomplishing. of the Biden administration and of Warnock's first two years, this $2 trillion in spending,

and none of them will even mention that it occurred. Warnock avoided it for the entire hour. Never talked about this $2 trillion they spent. Shouldn't it be all they're talking about? It's the biggest spending plan any of us have ever seen, and he doesn't even want to acknowledge it. Really remarkable. Here is Herschel Walker on,

on Warnax church that seems to be throwing people out. Because he won't answer that about evicting the people from the church. And I told him, I would pay that. I'll pay their salary. You're evicting them right now during these whole times. We have not evicted. We have not evicted those times. I didn't write the article.

And most of the people are to fill in my time. I'm okay with the discussion if you start talking over each other. We have not evicted the tenants, and he should take that money and pay it back to the veterans that he explored it while pretending to run. See, you can tell that he's not desperate because if he had read in that thing, he would have sold that I had nothing to do with that. But he is so desperate right now, and he really won that seat. He's now telling you, I didn't evict anyone. It is written in the paper. I didn't do this.

Well, Senator, you did. And it's okay to speak the truth. Wow. Wow. And finally, Herschel Walker and the police. One thing I have not done, I've never pretended to be a police officer. And I've never, I've never threatened a shootout with the police. And now I have to respond to that.

We are moving on, gentlemen. I'm not to respond to that. And you know what? So funny. I am with many police officers and at the same time. Mr. Walker, Mr. Walker, Mr. Walker, excuse me, Mr. Walker. When he said a problem with the truth, I need to let you know, Mr. Walker. You are very well aware of the rules tonight.

Yes. And you have a prop. Yes. That is not allowed, sir. No. I ask you to put that prop away. Well, it's not a prop. This is real.

And he said I have a problem. I never want the law enforcement. It is considered a prop. Mr. Walker. Oh my gosh. I can't take this. It is. It's definitely not a prop. I have a pen and a piece of paper. If the guy says, and you can't even write, and then I write down with this pen and paper, yes, I can and hold it up. Is the paper a prop? He's sitting there and his badge is in his pocket. Yeah, you can see him reach for it. Yeah. So it's not a prop. It's my wallet. Is my wallet a prop? He's saying that I don't have the.

privileges. Now, I don't know the story behind it, but they're now writing it as if it was a prop badge like he got it from Hollywood. It's not. It is an actual badge. Now, I don't know what that grants him, but that's not a prop. I think he did extraordinarily well. Yeah, and like, he think he needed to prove to people, the people of Georgia that he was able to do this, right? he was able to run in these circles and talk about these issues and know what he was talking about. And I think he pulled that off. That's a big step for a candidate, again, who's running his first campaign like this. You know, we have not seen that out of John Fetterman.

If this, right? I mean, you know, Katie Hobbs at Arizona won't even go out on a debate stage with Carrie Lake. I mean, like, Herschel Walker showed himself to be someone to be reckoned with. And that's a big step in a race like this. If you're afraid of your candidate, the one you're running against, if you're afraid of them, how are you going to stand up to Putin? How are you going to stand up to Biden? How are you going to stand up to Trump?

How are you going to stand up? You're showing me you're afraid of a debate of being exposed. Well, being exposed for what? For what? Pretending to be a cop, having an abortion? He wasn't afraid of that. What are you afraid of? your record?

Is that what it is? The people that you align yourself with? Is that what you're afraid of? Well, then that should tell you something. Maybe you're on the wrong side. But if you don't believe you're on the wrong side, why don't you have the courage to stand up and defend the things you're for?

It's just, it's cowardice, cowardice all around. Stand up for what you really believe. This is the, best of the Glenn Beck program. Okay, so let's stop in Saudi Arabia, shall we? Remember when the president went over and said, please pump some more oil? And they said, nah, I mean, we'll pump a couple hundred thousand gallons, you know, for barrels for you.

But that's all we can do because you've said you were going to destroy us. And you don't seem to be a friend of the oil industry, kind of what we do. And then he said, okay, well, can you just hold it until after the election? And then they came out and they cut it to 100,000 barrels and said, you know, your president wanted you to not know that it was going to go away before the election. We thought you should know that. Interfering with the election? Who?

Biden or the Saudis? I'm not sure which one you mean. So then he said, there's going to be repercussions. for that. I'm not going to tell you right now what they are, but Saudi Arabia, they're going to be repercussions. Here's Saudi Arabia's response this weekend. Anybody that challenges the existence of this country and this kingdom, all of us, we are projects of jihad and martyrdom. That's my message to anybody that thinks that he can threaten us. Okay. Okay. That's good. That's good. By the way, that's just a prince.

So what does he know? Right? What does he know? Just some guy off the street. Prince. Maybe he can play the guitar. Maybe he can't. I don't know. Just a prince of Saudi Arabia throwing around jihad and martyrdom. What could we? What could possibly go wrong? Certainly, there's never been any other previous consequences when Saudi Arabia has decided to embrace martyrdom or jihad. No, not with any real effect. No. There's a thing in September that happened one time. Yeah, it was once. It was a long time.

Yeah, I don't even remember it. Yeah. Let me give me another story. Utah Senate candidate Owen McMullough has has paid over $1.6 million dollars to Democratic firms and

uses the fundraising platform Act Blue. Weird. Yeah. Now, he is he is said he's not. He's an independent. He's an independent. Totally independent. Not a Democrat at all at this point in his life.

Yeah. Yeah. So. Wait, he's, wait, he's, you said he paid $1.6 million to. Well, okay. So he gets donations. And to get them, he uses Act Blue. So that is the fundraising tool for the Democratic Party.

Yeah. Wow. See, you can tell he's bipartisan. Blue. Act Blue. Not like sad, but like a Democrat. Act Blue. The campaign also paid $715,000 to break something.

That sounds like a conservative movement. Sounds just like Utah, too. When I think Utah, I think you want to go out there and just break things. Yeah. Break something, a quote, full service digital advertising and political consulting firm that specializes in, and I'm quoting, electing Democrats, furthering causes and creating change, end quote. So that's who's helping him out on that. And then he paid $281,000 to precision strategies, a Democratic consulting firm,

co-founded by Stephanie Cutter, top advisor on the pro-Biden outside group, building back together. So it's not build back better, it's building back together. So he's doing that. Also, he paid $182,000 to end. Impact research, a Democratic research in polling firm that includes President Biden as a client, along with other self, several left-leaning groups. So he's, and he's got more than that. But, you know, I think that's enough.

That's enough for me. I mean, don't you think? There's no. Help me with this, Glenn. Yeah. There's no way the people of Utah are this dumb, are they? No, I don't think so. But here, I mean, I am really concerned about this.

So you think they may be. I am going. Can you get my wife on the phone? I emailed her this morning and I said, what do we have planned for the weekend? And she said nothing. And so then I texted her and she hasn't texted back. But I want to go door knocking for Mike Lee. I can't.

I can't. I cannot take it. I just want to sit down with some McMuffler fans and say, what the hell is wrong with you? What is it wrong with you? Honestly, you don't see this? You don't get that what they're trying to do is, A, run away from their disastrous parties, their principals and their packages that they've done, run away.

They can't run somebody that can actually stand on anything. Then what do they do? Romney, I'm guessing, hoping that maybe there'd be a 50-50 split, you know, 49, 51, something like. that and that way Romney could have a swing vote go his way come on come on swing over our way which is their way just so you know it's not really our way it's their way hey honey sweetheart hello are you talking to me you're talking to me i'm talking to you you're talking to me i'm talking to you i'm talking to you hey uh listen uh what do you say we what do you say we live the life

of a jet setter and we fly some American airline or something. And we just, we set off into the sun and we doork for Mike Lee this weekend. Oh. Oh, the dream come true. Right? Right. You know anything Mike Lee is just action-packed.

Yeah. I was hoping. I was waiting for you to ask me for this. Yeah, I know. I know. Hey, it's one of the perks of marrying me that you. never thought you'd see you know you'd be like man there's going to be all kinds of twists and turns in this relationship and here's one of them oh yeah so do you want will you

come with me i want to go okay okay i can go or okay the two of us are you all in well i you know maybe possibly see what i mean so it is it's you know kids raf the we'll leave him a gun. He's got the dog. He's fine. Oh, geez. Okay. All right. Something happens. Here, use the gun or the dog. Whatever. Don't use the gun on the dog. And then, you know, Cheyenne, she's fine. He's fine. She can, whatever. Yeah, I'm most worried about the dog, actually. That's what I'm most worried about. Okay. Leave the boy with a gun, the dog, and some dog food.

Okay. Okay. Maybe. All right. Okay. All right. I love you, honey. I love you. All right. Now I've got to call Mike and see if I can go door knocking. Does Mike want you to doork for him? No, I don't think so. Because everybody you endorse loses. Yeah, I know. That's why I'm not endorsing you.

No. You're just door knocking for him. Door knocking for. I'm just going and saying, I'm not going to do the typical, hey, I'm here to talk to you about Mike Lee. I'm just going to ask you, are you voting for McMuffler? And if they say yes, I'll say, what the hell is wrong with you? And this is probably not the best way to approach this particular issue. Maybe I should do a big rally. Who do this is not Mike's. Mike is nothing.

Mike, hi, I'm Mike Lee, and I did not endorse this. It's no idea. I honestly want to ask people in Utah who are considering this. You want to come with me? I might have an extra, you know, ticket. You'll have to go as a woman. What? It's Tanya.

I'm just saying. I can guarantee if, look, it's one thing for you to go knock doors. Another thing for me, an address to knock doors for Mike Lee. Oh, no, just to get on the airplane. If I buy the ticket in her name, you just have to fly there. Oh, okay. I just have to be in a public airport and address. Nobody's deal then.

I really do want to ask people of Utah, though, who are considering this. I get, like, you might think, you might believe what McMullen is saying about, McMuffler is saying about being an independent. and he won't be beholden to anyone. But think about... This doesn't even make sense. Think about what Glenn just read. Just the incredible amounts of money coming through democratic power, these pipes that fund

Democrats all over the country, millions and millions and millions of dollars going back and forth between the... Who do you think this guy is going to be beholden to? Right. When this is over, do you think he's going to go to the Republican part? Do you think he's going to vote for lower taxes? Do you think he's going to do any of the things? he's just, he's acting like he's going to do when he gets in the Senate.

He's going to end the partisanship. That's it. I mean, he's a CIA agent. He knows how to do that. And it's quite clear because we know this already. The guy ran for president in 2016 and he sounded like a completely different human being. Yes. He's moved completely since just 2016 when he was already running as an anti-Trump candidate.

He's moved completely from then. He's changed all these viewpoints. from back at that time. What would possibly make you believe he will not be directly beholden to Chuck Schumer if he were to get this job? What makes you believe when he says, I won't caucus with the Democrats?

He will. Of course he will. He's using all of their infrastructure. The guy is a, he is a spy. He's a CIA guy that has infiltrated so many minds of Republicans that, oh, no, he's not that.

The guy is a ghost. He is a Democrat. They are... He's a Democrat. The Democratic Party is currently attempting to buy him a Senate seat. Yes. If you do not think he is going to do everything he can to pay them back if he gets this seat, you are a moron.

This is what this man is going to do. Not even that, Stu. You don't go to their caucus and have them throw off their Democrat candidate that wanted to run. Yep. And have him speak. And then the caucus is like, yeah, we're not going to have the Democrat run. We're not going to run. We're picking this guy.

Mm-hmm. Why do you think they did that? Why do you think the Democrats did that? This man will owe the Democratic Party his life. he will owe them every single vote. He owes them his entire political future. If you put this guy in the Senate, he will be Chuck Schumer. That is who he will be.

If you want to elect Chuck Schumer in Utah, then you can do that. That option is currently available to you. You got to come with me. Because this is the conversation we need to have in people's living room. that are thinking about McMuffler. If you want to have Chuck Schumer, then so be it.

You can have him. That option is available to you. But my guess is, you know, a lot of people think, oh, well, independent. And, oh, well, be honest with yourselves. Another reason that they're thinking that is because this story

is not in the Salt Lake Tribune. It cannot be found in the desert. Reseret News. Okay? So people who read the papers, they're not hearing any of this. You're watching television. Are you hearing any of this? What they've done in Utah is what they've done to the rest of the country.

They've just blocked all the information about the truth and they're spinning and they're buying it. And this is your life rest of the country if this works. This is your life in every election cycle. You're in a red state and you want to have, normally have a Republican, a Democrat, that Republican wins by 15 points. Wait until you see some BS independent candidate on the ballot. They're going to try this in every red state if this thing works.

It is not just a Utah story. It's not just a Mike Lee story. It's not just a constitutional story. It is the story of what the Democrats will do to try to manipulate the election system and manipulate the parties. to try to get people who are not following things all that closely to vote in Democrats in deep red states. This is what they're trying to do. And this is also the beginning of them shedding their Democratic label.

That's what's going to happen in the future. They have so destroyed the word Democrat that they will shed that label and become something new and improved. You know, kind of like build back better becomes the inflation reduction act. It's the same crap, different label, and America buys it. That's what's happening here. That's what's happening here. I suppose I should probably call Mike Lee before I suggest to you that you want to come knock doors with me or you want to, I don't know. I have no idea.

I'm doing something. Yeah. Just thinking, Mike may not want me to come out because of my record. He may want you to go campaign for Evan McMullen. Right. Owen McMuffler? Owen McMuffler. Thank you.

Sorry. Can't get that right, can you? No, it's a tough. I have the ones that have the problem with the names. You are calling him whatever you're calling him. Yeah, no, that's my fault. The name is Owen McMuffler. Hello.

It's an amazing thing that they're trying to do there, and they will try it all across the country. Oh, if this is successful, if this is even close to successful. Yeah. It's so hard. The polling is all over the place on this race. You know, most of the, the polls have Mike Lee up by a considerable margin. There are a couple of polls that have McMullen up slightly. It's hard to know where my guess is the truth is that Mike Lee is still winning this race,

but who knows? It's not the time to be complacent about it. Yeah, that's for sure. And it is, I mean, there is, there should, there should be no question on, on this. This should be a blowout nationwide. And of course, there would be no, no question. If they ran a, Democrat with a D next to his name. And instead, they're running one with an eye next to his name. And if everybody on the media wasn't shutting out the truth, they were actually telling both sides. Yeah.

I don't care if you, go ahead. You know, shovel all the lies for the left. Just how about shoveling some of the truth from the right? What do you say we try that? You think they're both lies? Great. Shovel both. Let America decide what is true.

That's the only. reason. They have scared people, done everything they can. Have no fear. Walk through a wall of fire if you have to, but you must vote. The best of the Glenn Beck program.

We don't have a little cone. Who wants to goon? Mr. President does. What flavor did he have? I'm interested in that. They cover it every time he eats ice cream. What flavor did he have? I didn't see it.

I didn't see it. A reporter, believe it or not, in Portland, Oregon, while he was at a Baskin-Robbins, asked, this guy eats more ice cream than any other human. And that's the only thing I like about him. He likes ice cream. That's the only thing I have in common with Joe Biden. So anyway, he was asked. Are you concerned at all about the strength of the dollar in the midst of rising inflation?

Here he is. His answer. Our economy is strong as hell. Internism. Inflation is worldwide. It's worse off everyone else who it is in the United States. So the problem is the lack of economic growth and sound policy in other countries, not so much much. And that's how it's worldwide inflation.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Okay. So he's not concerned about any of this. I'm not concerned. He's concerned about the rest of the world. Our economy is strong as hell. Let them eat cake or ice cream.

I mean, look at the ice cream. It's right here. Plenty of it. 32 flavors. What's wrong with people? Come on in and get some ice cream. Okay. All right.

Then he says inflation is worldwide and that's impacting everyone. Yes. it is worldwide. The question is why? Probably because why? Everybody is in massive debt. And when I say everybody, I'm not talking about you, even though you might be in massive debt.

I'm talking about the sovereigns are in massive debt. Massive debt. Like the kind of debt, no way out, no way up. That kind of debt. Yeah. Everyone else is doing terribly because they all imitated the Biden policies and the Biden approach to the past couple of years. Right. And not only the Biden policies, but they also mirrored the Obama policies of let's bail everybody out.

How did we win in previous examples of this? We went the other way. Yes. When everyone was trying socialism and communism, we said no capitalism. Yes. Right? We've won over and over again because we did the opposite of what. what all these other terrible governments wanted to do across the globe.

This time we did the same thing. Yeah. How is it working out? It's working out really well or not. Let me just show you. Okay, so he's eating ice cream. He doesn't have time to talk about the dollar and the relation to the dollar with inflation, because that had just get messy.

He's got a napkin for ice cream, not for questions like that. So here's the Biden economist talking about. What their plan is to make sure that we're as strong as hell. Cut two. Yeah, I'm just curious, and a lot of Americans are curious, when the so-called inflation reduction act will really start to bring down inflation. Curious? So the many parts of the bill will start to take effect next year.

For example, there are tax credits for energy to help people weatherize their homes and also bring down other forms of energy costs. So we are focused on helping to make that transition to clean energy in a way that brings down energy costs for fail. Thank goodness. So next year, if you want to spend money weatherizing your house, you'll get a tax break. Now, if you don't have money to spend the money, well, then you can't earn the money. But we all know it takes money to make money. Right.

So come on, people. with me here. You got some weather stripping coming. But also, let's not forget the coffee makers. Cut nine. The same way with what's in the Inflation Reduction Act has

to do with your ability to be able to get tax credits for buying if you need a new coffee machine, a new wash a new refrigerator, you buy an efficient refrigerator, efficient coffee machine. You get a tax credit for it. It costs you less money. It's estimated. Average family will save

$500 a year as well. And just that. There are also tax credits for weatherizing your home. Oh, and new windows. Keep the door. Oh, and buy new windows. Oh, my, stop, stop. I can't. I can't even imagine the savings we're going to have. If we bought a new washer and dryer,

a coffee machine, and a refrigerator and they were the right kinds, the average family can save $500. Oh my gosh. Why are we all not out right now buying refrigerators? washers and dryers. And then, and then, listen to this, if you buy a new front door that doesn't let the cold air in, you're going to save even more. And if you weatherize, all you have to do,

you go to Home Depot, they've got refrigerators, they've got washer and dryers, okay? Wow, these guys were open during COVID, too. That's another story, I'm sure. They got washer and dryers. They have coffee machines. They also, they also have refrigerators. And I'm sure the kind that you could get a tax break for. You could also buy the weather stripping and a new front door. Think how rich your... It's ice cream for everybody. It really is. It's ice cream cones for everybody. We certainly are on the precipice of caulking ourselves into prosperity. And at any moment, that's going to kick in. You tell you. People don't understand that it's right around the corner. When you're spending money on a washing machine, on a dryer, on a dryer, on weatherizing your home, people do realize that you're spending money, right?

Like if you have too little money now and you decide to go out and buy all these things and then in this weird world, we're going to say you've saved $500 on it. But instead of spending $5,000, you're spending $4,500, right? So that's not like, that's not the way you save money. Right. See, this is something that I've tried. when I was younger, I tried to use this with my wife. Yeah, but honey, it's on sale. Right.

So we're saving money. That Ferrari is on sale. Right. She'd say, no, it's still money we don't have. And I'd say, yeah, but we're saving money. And that's why I don't have a Ferrari. Okay. So you never save money.

I don't care how much the Ferrari is on for sale. You still have to buy the Ferrari. Oh, my God. Okay, now, I do have some good news. We're not talking just weather stripping, okay? I am so glad to hear this. President Joe Biden has signed Congress Consolidated Appropriations Act 2022. He signed it into law.

And that has provided funding for a five-year research plan to be coordinated by the White House Office of State. science and technology policy. Now, I believe this is the same guy that was just sanctioned or the same woman that was sanctioned by the National Academy of Science for lying, but don't worry about it. They are going to look into ways we can dim the sun. That's for global warming. And they've got a few ideas that I think, I think it's worth.

the millions and millions of dollars because I don't think some people would say you want you want a what that could turn out horrible I mean what do you excuse me you want to what but I would say we are capable of knowing all of the ramifications of of this so in other words what we can do is we can put stratification aerosphereic aerosol injection in about 12 to 16 miles above the earth. And they say that will accomplish what volcanic eruptions have otherwise achieved in blocking the sunlight. And that will temporarily cool the earth.

Now, don't worry about vegetation. Don't worry about anything else. Okay? This is, we're pretty, in five years from now, we're going to be pretty sure. Now, they don't absorb sunlight. And so it's just, it's like a giant mirror. It just bounces it. You're a rubber.

I am glue. Okay. Whatever you say, bounces off of me and sticks to you, something like that. Okay. Anyway, the yearly cost of the program to cool the earth by one degree would be $10 billion. And that's been corroborated by the, Gates Foundation. So we have

that. Has it been corroborated by the Montgomery Burns Foundation? I think I think so. Now, they say that there might be a few problems with this.

It might do some really bad damage that's unforeseen to global or regional climate. And that could affect the seawater temperature or the participation or precipitation or precipitation patterns or it could make the ocean get very, very acidic.

But it would, they say it would come down for $10 billion. So we've, we've got that. The other things we're thinking about doing is just cloud seeding, adding particles to the lower atmosphere to increase the reflectivity of the low hanging clouds over bodies. of water and that brings some of that temperature right out. Or there's another idea just kind of to

get rid of the clouds because then the heat won't be trapped. And this is the opposite of their old plan of doing this, which was to spread soot all over the north or pole, North Pole region. Well, that was when we were worried about global cooling. This is global warming, Stu. So this is entirely different. Thankfully, they didn't go through with that particular plan. Right. It would have been very bad. But now I think we've learned the lesson. And this is the geoengineering movement, you know, talking about these ideas. And I think it is important to point out. Yeah. That the geo, all the things you just discussed are, they're not good ideas to me. I don't think we should do them. I want to be clear about that. Are you a scientist? No. Okay. I say we follow the

science. I don't think we need to listen to somebody like you. No, that's true. That's fair. Or the American people, because they're not scientists. They're not scientists. Some of them are. But yeah. But quite, this to me is quite clear. Yeah. All of the ideas you just discussed are far more sane than what they're actually proposing. Oh, I, I, you know what? I completely agree with you.

And that should tell you something. It should. Asking all of us to reverse civilization and technological progress and make everybody, all the poor people in the world, their energy more. is a far worse idea than doing some research on potential geoengineering projects that might happen. You know, I'm tired of hearing you just, just, just whine over and over again. Are you better off than you were two years ago? No.

No, definitely not. Lots of people are, not you perhaps, but Vladimir Putin, the Taliban, they are much better off. George Soros, much better off. Okay, so I don't want to hear about you. Have an ice cream cone. The Biden family. A hunter. Is so much, so much better.

He's an artist now. Na, no, no.
