Starting point is 00:00:10 to the world entire. Trouvee to puttees like our own own.com. Hey, today's podcast, it's more bananas for a banana republic. What is happening with the election? What is happening with Russian influence?
Starting point is 00:00:25 What's happening with the Save Act? Are illegales voting and does it make a deal? difference. You won't believe the numbers. We have Chip Roy on that, as well as probably the biggest expert on SpaceX. He's watched them from the beginning. We talk a lot about Elon Musk. Steve Crampton, he's on from the Thomas Moore Society. He is fighting for pro-life protesters, people who are just standing up. You're going to lose your ability to stand up. Wait until you hear what he says. If Kamala Harris is actually voted in,
Starting point is 00:01:00 But they're using a law from 1870 to stop the clan. They've dug this law up, and that's what they're using to put people in jail. Also, Jason Whitlock is voting for the very first time. We talked to him about that and Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, all on today's podcast. Let me tell you a little bit about Lear Capital. You know, both Carol and I believe in gold. We both believe that you should have some. or silver even. Silver is cheaper.
Starting point is 00:01:33 But when all of this stuff really starts to hit, and you haven't really felt the full ramification of their inflation reduction act, a lot of these things begin next year. And if we don't have a president to cut all of this out, we're going to be in real trouble, and your dollar is going to be in real trouble. Please, today, call Lear Capital. please find out if this is right for you. You can buy silver at a relatively very low cost.
Starting point is 00:02:07 These banks wouldn't be having all this trouble if they wouldn't have bought treasuries. Instead, they would have bought gold. But our Fed doesn't do that. Just everybody else's central bank, especially in the East. Get your free wealth protection guide and call them today. They'll credit your account $250 towards your purchase. you just call them at 800-957 gold. Ask them the questions, pray on it, and please, if it's right for your family, do it now.
Starting point is 00:02:36 800-957 gold, 800-9-57 gold. You're listening to. Today. I want to actually start, before we get into the show that we did last night and now the New York Times response, which is crazy. There was a story yesterday that Merrick Garland, who is so. trustworthy, came out and talked about an indictment that tenant media was involved in some sort of Russian, something or rather, and they had an anonymous donor. I can't figure this story out. I'm not going to get into it and none of the details because I don't know what the details are.
Starting point is 00:03:40 right now, I know there is an indictment, but other than that, I don't, I can't figure out what the Russians would have been doing, how people, how Russia was going to benefit from this. However, I'm going to leave this alone for the facts and just talk to you about this. I have been telling you for how many years that there is, there are deep pockets. in Russia, and there are people that are trying to go after conservatives, and they are in our churches, you hear the agents of chaos, voices that you're like, wait a minute, wait a minute, what are they saying? Sometimes those are voices of chaos, maybe those are sometimes just misguided people. I don't know, but please, everyone in the media, this is why we say, this is why we say, you cannot go after TikTok. You go after TikTok.
Starting point is 00:04:48 They'll find another reason why you're involved some way or another with a foreign country, and they'll shut you down. This is the way McCarthyism begins. This is the way you begin to smear people for connections that are dubious. Maybe some of them are true. Maybe not. I have no idea. All I want to say to you is I have been aware of this threat
Starting point is 00:05:25 for years and I have been warning everyone in the media. I have been warning you. I don't know what to do. My first instinct on this is isolate yourself. I can't answer for other people. I can only answer for me.
Starting point is 00:05:47 and, you know, I have a show with Tucker Carlson. He invited me to be on his stage show. He's doing Russell Bran and Megan Kelly, and I'm the guest on his stage show this Saturday at, I think it's at the Delta Center. You can get tickets at Tucker Carlson.com. But this may be the last time I share the stage with anyone. I don't know. because I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:21 I mean, we're in this place where I, we just played this last night. In 2019, I said, warning, there is going to come a time where there is a trust implosion where you won't know who to trust, and no one will trust anyone or anything. What happens after that is street violence becomes out of hand, there probably will be a war at the same time, and that's when everything shuts down.
Starting point is 00:06:55 So we're at the last play here, and we just have to be very, very, very careful. May I say something that just popped into my mind, and I don't think it's just me. Anyone who is pushing for chaos or violence is on the wrong side. Anyone that is pushing for chaos or violence is on the wrong side. Anyone who is pushing fear that you should be afraid. And I get accused of this all the time. He's just pushing fear. No, I'm really not because.
Starting point is 00:07:50 I try to follow it with fear not, fear not. God is in charge. Just do the right thing. Just stand where you're supposed to stand. And I've told you this for 20 years now. There's going to come a time when you need the spirit to be constantly with you. Or you will not know where to stand. You will not know where to turn.
Starting point is 00:08:17 You won't have discernment. and you will be lost if you don't have that discernment. Please. Pray for me. Pray for my staff. And I will pray for you. We really, we have to be very aware. And spit yourself out of the system as much as you can.
Starting point is 00:08:48 Okay. By the way, I'm with Tucker Carlson at the Delta Center. this Saturday. The next weekend, I'm joining Donald Trump for a rally in a fundraiser. And then the weekend after that is September 20th and 21st. It's a Friday and Saturday. And it is the American Narratives in Fine Art Show. This is something that I have sponsored and put together. And they're 30 of some of the best artists in America that I brought to the museum. They saw the different artifacts in the museum. I said, find something that touches you, that you just feel compelled to tell that story and tell that story in painting. And so they are. We're trying to make sure that we
Starting point is 00:09:39 affect the culture, not only on the bottom end, but on the top end. And while fine art is thought of as being top end, this stuff trickles down. And these things, should be posters and prints and everything else that you can have in your home. You know, I always walk into people's houses. If they have the George Washington kneeling in prayer, the prayer at Valley Forge, I always am like, okay, they get it. They're safe. This is a safe house.
Starting point is 00:10:13 This is safe house. But these things help us teach our children the true history. And so that weekend on September 20th and 21st, we're having an open house at the studios. You can get tickets for Friday, I believe. That's a preview party. And then Saturday, it's open to the public in the morning and the afternoon. And then in the evening, there is a dinner you can buy tickets for, et cetera, et cetera. But just find all of this information at glenbeck.com, American Narratives in Fine.
Starting point is 00:10:49 art.com as well as where you get your tickets, but I will see you in, wow, it's three weeks, September 20th and 21st in Dallas at the Mercury Studios. Okay. Last night on the TV show, I talked to you about illegal immigration and illegal voting. Now, Stu, has a story that just came out from the New York Times that says people like me and Donald Trump and anybody who's concerned about the vote, we're overstating the problem. You want to give me the highlights of this, Stu? Sure, Glenn, the title is Republican C's on false theories about immigrant voting. And it starts talking about a group, there's multiple groups discussed in the article, but it says in late July, a group of Republican activists met on a Zoom call to
Starting point is 00:11:51 discuss preparations for the November election. The topic was how to keep undocumented immigrants from voting in November, a problem they claim inaccurately to be a looming threat to a fair election. It goes on to say that there's no indication that non-citizens are voting in large numbers, which is, I think, an interesting point because if it doesn't have to be in large voting numbers to be a threat to an election, right? Especially a close one. But they, of course, I don't know. I'm kind of an app. It happens. I'm kind of an absolutist where I don't want anybody who shouldn't vote to vote. I don't care what the numbers are. Really? But let me just, let me just go through the numbers here with this clip from last night show. Listen to this.
Starting point is 00:12:41 The mainstream media is in agreement that these seven states will swing the election in November. They're Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. So let's go through each one and keep in mind what Texas just found. Also, the fact that by election day, it will be projected that we will have 8 million migrants living in the United States. Some say it's closer to 20 million. In 2020, over 11,600, no proof of citizenship. required federal ballots were cast in Arizona during the 2020 election. Arizona currently has 273,000 illegals living in the state that we know of.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Joe Biden won Arizona in 2020 by 10,457 votes. Looks kind of significant in Arizona. But let's go to Georgia. Stacey Abrams infamily said the blue wave would include undocumented immigrants. That's a quote. Georgia currently has
Starting point is 00:13:52 339,000 illegals. Biden won Georgia in 2020 by 12,000 votes. Michigan has tell me how this is, tell me how this is not significant. I mean,
Starting point is 00:14:07 there were 11,000 illegals voting in Arizona. Donald Trump lost by 10,000. We also know that illegals almost always break for the Democrats. Almost always. Is that not significant? If Donald Trump would have won Arizona, he would have won.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Wouldn't he have still? Is it one state or two states? No, he would have needed more than that. Yeah, he would have hated more than that. And with 300. There's a lot of close states, though. Right. And with 339 in Georgia, and he loses by 10.
Starting point is 00:14:48 thousand votes. 339,000. There's 160,000 today in Arizona. And, you know, in 2020, there weren't that many. And you had 11,000 people voting that shouldn't have been voting. With 339 and Georgia being lost,
Starting point is 00:15:11 last time by about 11,000, I don't know. There seems like there could be a I don't understand why the left can get away with doing things that everyone agrees on. It's like 80% of the population, both Republican and Democrat and independent, all agree you should have ID. They all agree you should be a citizen if you're going to vote. If you're not a citizen, you shouldn't vote. We all agree on that except for the Democratic Party and their minions in the press. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I think that's significant. I think when you have a election that could be won by 10,000 votes, I think it's important to know who is actually voting. But then again, I'm an extreme. extremist conspiracy theorist. So what do I know? Well, I should say I'm a conspiracy theorist until 90% of what I say comes to fruition. And then they eventually say, oh yeah, we've been doing that forever. I mean, it's no big deal. Okay. All right, sure. If let's say you're in Aurora, Colorado, okay? And you got, you know, you got a nice little place going there and you think maybe now is
Starting point is 00:16:46 the time to sell. Not sure you can get all of your money out of that house, but don't shake the dice and throw them down on the table without knowing the odds. And you need somebody who is really good at real estate to tell you what the odds are of selling your house in, let's say, Aurora or any other sanctuary city now. I started a company over a decade ago with my brother. It is called real estate agents.I trust.com. The real estate agents that we find and work with are full-time incredibly dedicated professionals. They're fully committed to helping you realize your home buying and home selling goals. They're going to put a team of experts together for you and get things done right and get it done right on the first time. The name says it all.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Find the right real estate agent for you. It's real estate agents.itrust.com. Real estate agents I trust.com. Now back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program, and we really want to thank you for listening. You know, as you look at the, you look at the policies of the Biden Harris administration, and then you see that Kamala Harris will not say whether she's going to sign her own EV mandate bill. Of course she is. She won't share her current viewpoint and current position on reparations, but she's always
Starting point is 00:18:14 been for those. Of course she's going to. You know, the border. She is for open. borders. What do you think is going to happen? What do you think she's going to do? She is also the most pro-abortion advocate to ever be anywhere close to the White House.
Starting point is 00:18:36 She is the first vice president to ever go to an abortion clinic and, you know, make happy talk with everybody in the, you know, in the, honestly, in the death chamber of, of Planned Parenthood. But if you think you're going to have a voice and be able to do anything about abortion, I think you're sadly mistaken if she wins. You know, one of the things that nobody seems to be talking about or caring about is the fact that they are, the DOJ is taking glee in prosecuting anybody who shows up to try to stop women from having an abortion and they've been, you know, charged with violating the FACE Act. However, they're doing something else. They are using the KKK Act to charge as well
Starting point is 00:19:36 as somebody who is trying to stop your civil right. It was something developed for the clan. And we're now using this to get 10 years plus in prison. for anybody who goes to March for Life. Steve Crampton is with us now. Steve is with the Thomas Moore Society, Senior Counsel, and he has been on this beat and trying to fight it in court. How's the fight coming, Steve? Well, Glenn, it wouldn't be a rosy report I could furnish.
Starting point is 00:20:13 The Biden-Harris DOJ, as you indicated, has ramped up criminal prosecutions against peaceful pro-life demonstrators against abortion in a way we have never seen before. According to my calculations since 2011, there have been a total of about 51 criminal prosecutions. 35, 35 of those have been since the overturning of Roe against Wade in 2022 by the Biden-Harris administration. And as you indicate, they have thrown the book at these guys, including this 10-year felony conspiracy against rights charge.
Starting point is 00:20:56 We just had guilty verdicts handed down in another criminal face case in Detroit here at the end of August. We're still fighting those charges. The court has graciously allowed us time to really brief and argue the fact that this statute has no bearing. in the context of a peaceful sit-in is what it amounts to, a violation of the FACE Act. So we're still fighting those, but it's brutal. Let's go back for just a second on the Klan Act. It is the Ku Klux Klan Act. It was passed in 1870 to guard the rights of African Americans to go in and vote. So how are they applying this here? It's incredible. The statute says if two or more persons
Starting point is 00:21:47 conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in the free exercise of their rights guaranteed by the Constitution or the laws of the United States. So they take that or the laws of the United States and say, hey, the FACE Act is a law of the United States. These people have agreed to come in and engage in this sit-in, thereby intimidating or oppressing folks trying to get an abortion, ergo, we can charge them with this conspiracy violation. So it, you know, on the face of the act, Glenn, it really does seem to apply. But the fact of the matter is, and the U.S. Supreme Court, in a very recent case, Fisher against the United States, decided the end of June, the end of this last term, 24, that, hey, you can't just willy-nilly
Starting point is 00:22:42 take these old statutes with generic, very broad language and ratchet them down against a newly enacted act like the Face Act, where the intent of Congress is clearly not to allow such things. There were great debates in Congress in 1994 when they tried to enact for the first time in our nation's history a federal law that criminalizes peaceful civil disobedience, you know, the time honored tradition that we've enjoyed for our nation's history. And they directly asked, okay, so somebody that's engaged in this kind of nonviolent sit-in action, they can't be charged with a felony? Answer, absolutely not. And yet here we are, only under the Biden administration do you import Section 241, the Conspiracy Against Rights KKK Act for use against pro-lifers only?
Starting point is 00:23:38 So, so I have a feeling that we haven't seen anything yet, Steve. Yeah. That the mask is coming off. They've all but told us exactly who they are. Remember, they were running a moderate last time. This time, if you're paying attention at all, they're not telling you what she's going to do for a reason. They won't explain her flip-flops for a reason.
Starting point is 00:24:06 And we, we need. know who she is and she is massively anti-pro-life. And I just have this feeling, Steve, and please tell me this is hyperbole, that I could see in the next four years if she wins. You don't have a right to say anything about abortion. Glenn, I wish I could disagree with you there. As you lay out, this is, I think, the most overtly, avidly, obsessively. Pro-abortion that we have ever seen. And she can't wait. She falls all over herself, in spite of her strict controllers trying to hold her back when it comes to the issue of abortion. And remember, by the way, just this week, there's a new report of the FBI's utter failure to act, even in the context of sexual abuse and human trafficking of children.
Starting point is 00:25:05 They are too busy, apparently, combing through age-old Facebook records of gentle pro-life Christians, trying to find ways to come in with the SWAT teams and arrest them, rather than looking after the lives and sexual well-being of our children. I mean, it's unbelievable where we are and the priorities of the weaponized DOJ and FBI. Steve, let me just ask the listener to pray for you and the Thomas Moore Society for everything that you're doing. But also, if you feel this is something that is important to you, I think it is, please consider making a donation to the Thomas More Society, Thomasmore Society. Thomasmore Society.org.
Starting point is 00:25:55 They are providing legal counsel and fighting this fight where it really counts, thomasmoresociety.org. Steve, thank you. Thank you so much, Glenn. God bless you. The rights that are on the line this time around are numerous. When you look at what they have done to Donald Trump, they have used and abused the FBI. the Justice Department, our intelligence agencies. They have all lied to us about Russia collusion, et cetera, et cetera. And I know if you're a Democrat, you're shaking your head saying, no, that wasn't a lie. It was a lie.
Starting point is 00:26:57 It was a provable lie. You might have missed some of the reporting that went on because the mainstream media ran it once and then just moved on. But everyone admits now that that was a lie. Clinton was involved in it. Biden was involved in it. Obama was involved in it. This has become an oligarchy.
Starting point is 00:27:30 And people that are voting for Kamala Harris, I believe are ill-informed. But I also believe that, they have just been trained, Orange Man Bad. And so they will vote for anything. Even somebody they don't know or like. You don't, Americans don't even know who she is. But she is a rabid anti-prolifer.
Starting point is 00:28:05 And if you don't think that these people will put you in jail using an old law from 1870 to stop. the Ku Klux Klan. These people have nothing on their hands to do all day except find ways to destroy our rights. And if that sounds like hyperbole, you're not paying attention. Look at the way they're going after anybody
Starting point is 00:28:39 who stands in their way. Anybody. President Trump. That's incredible. You know, people say, well, he's a felon. Is he? Is he? Because that's going to be over.
Starting point is 00:28:51 turned. Is he a felon? And if he was a felon, what exactly was he a felon on? I know he was 32 counts, but it was the same thing over and over again just for different papers, different months of putting it into a ledger. Nobody's ever been tried on that. That's ridiculous. And the man has been investigated by every single service, intelligence service, in all five eyes, and all the of our enemies. Everyone, everyone did research on him. Well, if he's done this, what else is he done? Apparently nothing. Because if this is the best you have after five or six years of digging and digging and digging, you got nothing. Nothing. And if they will persecute him, you don't think they'll do that to you, if they will go after the guy who is, A, the biggest manufacturer of electric cars,
Starting point is 00:30:01 when they say the biggest thing we have to do is get rid of all of our cars and have electric cars, they'll go after him because he disagrees with them on Donald Trump. They will try to put him out of business because of his Trump connection and also because he believes in free speech. Where's America? What are you voting for? Because you're not voting for this country. You're not voting for our Constitution. You're not voting for our Bill of Rights. You may think you are, but it's because you haven't boned up on what's really going on. And in some ways, I can't blame you because the mainstream media either calls everything a conspiracy theory and then goes on a year later to go,
Starting point is 00:30:55 oh yeah, that is true, or you've just stuck your head in the sand. And for that, I have no sympathy. But please, I'd rather avoid what I think in some ways we deserve. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. We've absolutely lost our mind. You know, we've been talking for years now about the four dams, hydroelectric dams, that were, you know, they wanted to tear them down and get them out because of the indigenous peoples and the salmon. And so they said that this was really, you know, hurting the salmon.
Starting point is 00:31:43 And it may have been. In fact, I think it's hard to make the claim that it didn't. But it was four hydroelectric dams. Did you ever hear, do you even hear about this? This is the largest dam removal project in American history, four dams. CNN just reported the largest dam removal project in U.S. history is finally complete. After Cruz last week demolished the last of four dams on the Kalameth River, it's a significant win for tribal nations.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Good, good, good for them, good for them. Four hydroelectric dams gone. Well, it's going to be fun to see how we get water and, you know, give irrigation to those farms and produce power for the Pacific. Northwest, but don't worry about it. I'm sure it's no big deal. Chip Roy is with us. I want to talk to him about the SAVE Act. Chip, how are you, sir? I wish I was with you, but I'm happily in Austin, Texas. Oh, okay. Well, Austin's, it is Austin, but it's still Texas. So, Chip, talk to me about the SAVE Act. This is, I cannot believe that the Democrats are standing against this
Starting point is 00:33:01 in a time when we all are worried about the election integrity, and they're saying we don't need to pass this act because we already have laws on the books that say non-citizens can't vote. How disingenuous is that? Well, it's disingenuous because as you know, as I know, as your listeners know, Democrats have no interest whatsoever in ensuring election integrity. In fact, they want the opposite. They want non-citizens to vote. That's what the thing. this is all about. They've effectively said so. Now, they're going to during the campaign season, they're going to hide behind, oh, there's no problem here, right? You heard Mark Kelly from Arizona go, oh, this is a solution in search of a problem. Meanwhile, you have 6,500 non-citizens cleaned off
Starting point is 00:33:48 the Texas rolls in the last couple of years. You have 6,300 cleaned off Virginia's rolls. You have thousands cleaned off of other states' roles. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. because if we actually had the tools to go, you know, discover the problem, which the Save Act would provide by requiring that when you register to vote, this is a novel concept line. You can't believe this crazy stuff, this radical stuff, that when you register to vote, you just need to demonstrate you're a citizen. Democrats oppose it. Now, I will note five Democrats voted for our bill in July when we passed it, all Republicans voted for it. But again, this is all about control. That's what the climate agenda is all about.
Starting point is 00:34:28 That's what the environmental agenda is all about. They're all connected. I'm going to turn the dams down. This is all about control, empowering the government. This is all of the Marxism, the communism, the statism, the totalitarianism, that Reagan fought, but that we are not remotely close to completing. They're on the market because they live among us. That's the problem.
Starting point is 00:34:50 So how can they say that there's no problem here in Arizona in particular? In 2020, 11,600, no proof of citizenship required federal ballots were cast in Arizona. Joe Biden won Arizona by 10,457 votes. So there were more non-citizens voting, and we know the non-citizens almost always vote for the Democrats. How is this not a problem? Well, it's not a problem if you're a Democrat who wants power. That's the point. I think the thing that I, you know, you open this segment talking about those dams. You know, we could do a whole segment and you talk about all the time about what's happening in the United Kingdom, the takeover that's happening there. What's happening in Ireland, what's happening in Germany. It's real. This isn't fake. It's not like the churches are just magically, oh, yeah, those churches aren't burning in France. It's not like, oh, yeah, that church in Ireland last week caught fire. Oh, that's just, to coincidence. This is happening, and it's happening right now. The only reason we're slightly not as bad as Europe is the massive oceans on either side of us. But with the increase of air
Starting point is 00:36:06 travel, with the poorest border, America is only a nanosecond behind Europe. So our whole point on the SAVE Act is to call their bluff and to force the question. Now, I got to say, because I know that some of your listeners, strong, awesome conservatives, are hearing a few of my conservatives, colleagues and some pundits say, gosh, why are we going to do a continuing resolution? We hate continuing resolutions. Why would we support that? Well, here's why. I don't like continuing resolutions. I think they're garbage, except if I have the chance right now heading into an election season, and I know we're not going to pass all 12 appropriations bills, because a lot of our colleagues refuse to cut spending, Democrats won't work with us, we can't get all Republicans across the
Starting point is 00:36:49 finish line. We've only passed five of the 12. My theory is this. I don't want to have a lame duck CR in December. That's what the appropriators, that's what Mitch McConnell. That's what they want. They want that pressure of Christmas time. They want the Christmas free bill. So let's do a CR in March. Let's attach the SAVE Act. Let's tell our Democratic colleagues, guys, we have funded your precious, god awful government that we hate the EPA and we hate all of the stuff with the FBI. We hate the Secret Service failing to do its job, and we hate the open borders. We're funding your government at current levels through March.
Starting point is 00:37:27 We're going to fight and fix this. When Donald Trump wins in November and we have the House in the Senate, we'll see you on election day in November. You're going to vote for this with election integrity or you're going to be the ones you decide to shut the government down. I'm happy to have that. I am thrilled to have that. You don't have a country if you have illegals voting.
Starting point is 00:37:48 You won't have a country. If you can't get this basic thing down that citizens are the only ones to vote, and if it's already been done, then they should have no problem voting for it. No problem whatsoever. You would look at the other side. If that were true, you would look at the other side and you go, if that's what you want, if that's what's going to take, okay. But they know it's not true.
Starting point is 00:38:15 And the Republicans, do you really think the Republicans are going to have the spine to stand up for this? Well, I think that all depends on President Trump, and I don't mean that as a question about his fortitude. We know his fortitude, right? I mean, he got shot and he stood right back up. I think the question here is whether or not the president is going to decide
Starting point is 00:38:37 that it is in the strategic interest of him and the party and the House and the Senate for us to carry on the shutdown fight from October 1st to Election Day. If he wants to do that, and if that's the right thing for us to do, I'm all in, let's go. But we'll make a decision on October 1.
Starting point is 00:38:53 You know what I think about it. Hell, you know, I would pick a fight on bigger things. I would have HR2 on it. I would defund some stuff. And I would send them a funding bill and I'd go send it to American people and say, here are our priorities. If Democrats don't like it, make that the Election Day issue. Look, I'm going to be blunt.
Starting point is 00:39:11 I'm going to be honest. I don't lie. We have some colleagues who are in tight districts who will come into our conference and say, guys, I can't win the election. if we have a shutdown and a quarter of my constituents or 10% or whatever are either not getting their paycheats because they're a government employee or they're not getting some benefit or whatever. So we're going to have that fight inside the Republican conference in September.
Starting point is 00:39:35 I would fight. I always will pick that fight. But I'm happy to try to figure out how we navigate to get to November 5th. But the starting place for that conversation is get the government spending past Christmas so the appropriators and the uniparty swamp dwellers on both parties can't screw the American people and pick a fight on the Save Act. I'll trust President Trump to land the plane strategically. Do we come up with some solution in September 30th and they campaign on it?
Starting point is 00:40:04 Do we let it shut down for a week or two or all the way to November 5th? I'm game for any of those options, provided that we fight, provided that we put up a fight, demonstrate the fight, and campaign on it. Democrats are taking your country away, people. We should act like it. I'm fine if it shuts down. But I'm going to defer to some degree on President Trump and how he wants to lead. He's the leader of the party right now.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Yeah, no, the leader has to be part of it. If he waffles at all, it'll all fall apart. How are we doing in Congress for the elections? It looks not so great. Well, you know, look, here's the one thing I'll tell you, because a lot of the people that you and I are friends, your listeners, they will come to me out on the campaign trail and they'll say, well, why should I bother voting? I mean, you know, they're going to rig the election. Well, there's one way to guarantee we lose the election, and that's the not show up.
Starting point is 00:41:00 So you have to show up. The second thing is we've got to be too big to rig. President Trump has said that. He's right. Show up in overwhelming numbers. Demonstrate that we want our country back. If all of your listeners, families, friends, you know, church, all the people that they drag their family and their kids and everything vote we'll win and we'll win
Starting point is 00:41:20 in overwhelming numbers let's overwhelm them now i know that's all sort of big talk the third point really is we've got to stand for something and i want republicans to be united in this in the fall that's why i think having the c r and the save act is a good fight but it is a tight election i'm going to tell you it's tighter than it should be that's because we have a divided country it's because of our education system has been corrupting our youth now for at least two or three generations it's because of some of the of all of the ballots and all of the mail and ballots and the ballot harvesting and all of that. We've improved it some since 2020. You know, Texas, Georgia, other states that have notably made some changes.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Wisconsin's still not great. Pennsylvania is still a question. Arizona's kind of some good, some bad. So we're going to have to do what we need to do to make sure we have poll watchers. I know the RNC, Laura Trump, Michael Wadley, they've been working on making sure we've got the lawyers in place. We were flat footed in 2020. but I'm just telling everybody on the ground, get out and vote, overwhelm them, right? And that's the best way to guarantee the outcome that we need to have.
Starting point is 00:42:24 But the short answer to the question is the presidential is a coin toss lien Trump. The House is a probable that we end up roughly where we are with a very thin majority, but we could get you. The Senate we should take, but it'll be 51, two, or three. So we got to do our work to boost those numbers to make sure Ted Cruz wins. me and everybody else. You know, when you have Kamala Harris busing people in to, I think it was New Hampshire for her rally, I mean, like 30 buses of people were shipped in from another state.
Starting point is 00:43:02 That shows you something. That shows you that this is not real. And, you know, I'm hoping that the discouragement of the Democrats that they start seeing these things you know, there's so many encouraging signs that we are right at the tipping point here, where just a little more of this, and it's over for the Democrats. But if they win in this fall, Chip, I don't know how America makes it. I mean, everything that they've been planning for this global government, all of this stuff, it hits next year.
Starting point is 00:43:43 Yeah, I mean, Glenn, I. You can go down a parade of horribles. We all, we know about the 5.5 people have been released. We know about the fentanyl. We know about the international organizations, the 2 million gotaways. We know about the cartels reach. We know about what you're talking about. The United Nations, the World Health Organization, all of the crap they're doing, what they're doing, reparations.
Starting point is 00:44:00 You know what? Nobody's talking about. Record numbers of citizens that have been made and processed during this administration, moving people through citizenship path. I don't know who they are or where they're from. We're trying to get that information. they want to remake America. This election is a worldview election.
Starting point is 00:44:17 This is about your way of life. This isn't about any personalities one way or the other. If you love Trump, if you're not a big fan, I don't really give a damn. What I care about is we need to save freedom. President Trump loves America, loves freedom. He wants us to have this country for us and for the people. He doesn't have to be doing this.
Starting point is 00:44:36 And, you know, look, I've been on your show where I've disagreed with him. I don't, you know, I don't mince words. But opposition in all things. It's required. It's required. This is not a hard question. We have a job to do. Let's go save our country for our kids and grandkids.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Because if Kamala Harris is the president on January 20th, we're in real trouble. We're in epic trouble. We're in 1850s type trouble. And we've got to make sure that we do our part to solve that problem right now by overwhelming the Democrats at the polls. Don't listen to all of the naysayers. It can and probably will be a close election. I hope we stretch it out and run through the tape. But the only way to do that is show up now.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Chip, thank you so much. You please stay in touch with me when, if there's anything the audience can do, please, the SAFE Act has got to go through. We're going to say, In the phone, all the everyone can be a guy of the finance. Not to have a gross monger in gold,
