Starting point is 00:00:21 poisoning you? The answer is yes, and we find out, you know, what are the things you can do to make the substitutions to the things, you know, as we try to make help America,
Starting point is 00:00:30 healthy again and just how much people have changed in the last few years. Also, Senator Ted Cruz is here. How close are we to losing Texas? Closer than you might think, especially thanks to Mitch McConnell. It is imperative that we keep Texas red in order to keep our republic. And Florida Representative Bob Rommel joins us as we talk about the Florida abortion measure that is on your ballot for a constitutional amendment in just a few weeks. In fact, almost the same thing is on the ballot in 11 different states. They're going to come out and force to have abortion constitutionally mandated in 11 states. Are you going to be there? On the full show, we break down the Kamala interview with Brett Baer and the soundbite she and her team specifically

Starting point is 00:02:44 He's Levels Chief Medical Officer and co-founder and the co-author of the book Good Energy. Welcome. Casey, how are you? I'm great to be here. I'm wonderful. How are you? Good morning.
Starting point is 00:02:56 I am good. You know, I'm new to this. And it's funny because I was reading some of the stuff that you have written. And about maybe seven, eight years ago, I became very, very sick with some kind of chronic disease and every doctor I went to, we described the symptoms and they, every single one said, you're being poisoned. And I said, well, I don't, I don't think I am. I mean, you know, we're keeping tabs on George Soros. I think I'm not being poisoned. And every single one said,
Starting point is 00:03:29 and we did all of the stuff. And I wasn't, I didn't have, you know, heavy metals or anything else. And I thought, in reading your stuff, maybe that is just in a complete. different way. Maybe we're all being poisoned a little bit at a time. You know, I'm sorry you had to go through that, but I think so many people in America are sort of feeling something like this. We're all trying really hard to be healthy. We're going to the doctor's visits. We're going to all the specialist's office. And yet somehow Americans don't feel very good. And we're getting very, very sick. And the statistics in American health, as you've probably seen in some headlines,
Starting point is 00:04:09 although it's not being talked about enough, it's not very good. Life expectancy in America is actually, it's been going down for the past several years. We're living eight years less in America as our friends in Japan and Sweden, even though we spend almost twice as much as any other country in the entire world on health care. So it makes you scratch your head a little bit. It's not like we're prescribing, it's not like we're not prescribing enough medications. We prescribe 221 million statin prescriptions per year, and yet heart disease is still the number one cause of death in the United States, taking almost a million lives per year. So it's not for a lack of medication.
Starting point is 00:04:52 It's not for a lack of spending. So what is it? Then you get to the question of things like, are we being poisoned? And, you know, it's not to be alarmist, but the U.S. does allow 10,000 chemicals in our food system, whereas other countries allow. vastly fewer than this, allow only about 400 in Europe. And you can actually just go to the FDA website and see the chemicals that are allowed in our food system. And it kind of makes you shudder things like acetone, benzene. These are allowed in our food, 10,000 of these.
Starting point is 00:05:24 And there is not a strong push to have these be proved as safe before they go into our food system. That was one of the things that really amazed me is if you want one of these things approved in the food, you as the food maker have to hire a research team, do your own research, then present that to the FDA while you're paying them to do it. And then they approve it based on your own research. And then every time you make a batch of that stuff, you have to continue to pay them. I mean, it sounds like bribery. There's a program called GRAS, which is generally recognized and safe.
Starting point is 00:06:11 And the FDA uses this program. It is a self-designation on the part of a company. It is a process that allows a company or an individual to independently determine that a food ingredient is safe for its intended use. Doesn't that seem a little strange that the company would be the one to have to do this? So let's just take an example here. Let's say you're creating a product in the United States, like a drink, and you want to have that drink be strawberry flavored. It is not cheap to grow a bunch of strawberries and extract strawberry extract or strawberry juice from those products.
Starting point is 00:06:47 That's very expensive and time intensive. You could, quite literally, call up a scientist, a food chemist, a food chemical company, and say, I need a molecule synthesize that tastes like strawberry. It doesn't really matter what that molecule is. And we're going to put that in our food much cheaper, much easier. And the onus is on the company to say that it is safe. So you can then have that in the food system for years. And it may be causing health effects.
Starting point is 00:07:14 But if you think about it, it's very hard to prove that one chemical is causing issues in kids, for instance. And so they get away with a lot. I just talked about food dyes last night. That's all we covered was just one. And it said that the studies have to show that the amount in, let's say, jello is not going to be harmful, at least if they don't eat too much of it over their lifetime. But does that, does the research include how many times that dye is used in every other product? Absolutely not. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Glenn, you've nailed it. So that's one chemical, which is in, might be in 15. foods kids are eating. It's in their fruit loops. You know, let's talk about like Red 40, which is getting a lot of attention this week because history was made on Tuesday of this week in Battle Creek, Michigan, where Vani Hari and several other food advocates, doctors, pediatric, went to go fight Kellogg's about Red 40 because the science is extremely clear. Red 40 is causing attention disorders in children. The research literature of peer-reviewed studies is showing this. We've got ADHD and children skyrocketing and behavioral issues. We have a chemical
Starting point is 00:08:27 in so much of their food that we know is linked to it and Red 40 and these other food dyes. They are derived from what? From oil petroleum. These are crude oil that are going to our kids' bodies. They also contain benzene, which is a known carcinogen, and Kellogg's and other food companies are not taking that out of the foods, even though the exact same products these companies like Kellogg sell in Europe, they have a different formulation because these chemicals are banned in Europe. So American companies are serving American children foods that have
Starting point is 00:09:01 chemicals that are banned in over other countries that we know are causing issues like attention disorders and maybe causing cancer. And of course, we have young adult cancer skyrocketing in the U.S. up 79% in the past 10 years. So these food, this is one chemical we're talking about, Glenn, out of 10,000. And of course, the way these are studies, we can say, oh, the average kid eating one one bowl of fruit looks a day, this isn't going to cause a problem. But what about the skittles? What about the fruit roll-ups? What about the red food coloring on the cake they're eating in class? It's adding up.
Starting point is 00:09:34 Unbelievable how sneaky the companies are about this. It was so interesting. I was actually the night before Kelly and I did Joe Rogan last week, we were at a steakhouse, and I got a mocktail. I got a no-groni, sort of like a non-alcoholic nogroni. And right after I drank the drink, I was actually feeling really off. And so I looked up the ingredients of what was in this drink. And I saw under the ingredients for this appertief that was in it called Giffard Apertice Bitter,
Starting point is 00:10:04 there was a ingredient called E129. And I thought, what the hell is E129? What did I just put in my body? So I Google it. It's Red 40. It's another name for Red 40. So they're even actually changing the name on different packages so you don't know how much you are getting. This is the tip of the iceberg of the issue, what we're talking about here.
Starting point is 00:10:27 I'm just because I lived at the time where they started to ban cigarette ads on television. I remember that. I remember seeing, you know, my doctor recommends that I smoke filtered camels. It's like your doctor recommends that. And I remember the game that was played. And then in the 80s and the 90s where big tobacco came under scrutiny, it took forever to get to the point to where you're like, wow, they knew this forever. and were making things more addictive. Well, those people, R.J.R. Reynolds and others went and they bought our food companies.
Starting point is 00:11:06 That's right. And why wouldn't they? I mean, here's one study said the tobacco company owned food manufacturers focus on, quote, the rise of hyper-palatable foods, which contain potent combinations of fat, sodium, sugar, and other additives that drive people to crave an over- overeat them. So they're doing the same thing they were doing with cigarettes. That's exactly right. So some of the largest mergers in American history up until the 1980s were exactly, as you
Starting point is 00:11:39 say, they were cigarette companies, which were falling out of favor in American culture, because doctors and scientists finally woke up to these being lethal. They bought food companies. And this is exactly when we saw the stark rise in ultra-processed foods as a percentage of our diet. it now 67% of all calories we are eating in the United States is ultra-processed food. This is non-food, chemical substance essentially made by scientists and factories that look like food but are actually made of a combination of chemicals. And that's now almost 70% of American calories.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Of course we're getting sick. Of course we're getting mentally ill. Of course we're becoming less competitive. We're eating literally a science experiment. that was invented by the cigarette companies to addict us. And that's exactly what it does. They took their food scientists, their team of brilliant PhDs and said, dopamine is a business model.
Starting point is 00:12:36 We're going to turn our attention from how do we make cigarettes addictive to how do we make food addictive because how do they meet their quarterly profits? They get more people in facially eating this food. And it worked. We are now eating ourselves to death in the United States. 74% of American adults have overweighter obesity. 52% of American adults have type 2 diabetes. or pre-diabetes, and of course, all the downstream diseases from these heart disease,
Starting point is 00:13:00 stroke, Alzheimer's, dementia are all going through, going to the roof. And the food is quite literally designed to reach us to our bliss point, the use of chemicals that make our brain go crazy for this, and they include other chemicals like high fructose corn syrup that turn off our satiety signals, meaning they tell our brain that we are not full. And normally, of course, when you eat whole real food, you get full. You literally can't overeat grass-fed steak, right? You can't eat so much that you would get sick
Starting point is 00:13:30 because you get full. Say that again. Amen, sister. Amen, sister. But the box of Pringles tells you exactly what they're trying to do to you. Once you pop, you just can't stop. And that's biochemical. That is food science.
Starting point is 00:13:43 And of course, now we're spending 20% of the largest GDP on the world on health care costs, and Americans are getting sicker. Why? Because we're not folks in the root cause, which is the environmental factors, like toxic foods, which are government subsidized and allowed by our government and are absolutely taking down the American population in front of our eyes. And they're ignoring it
Starting point is 00:14:02 when grassroots efforts like what happened in Battle Creek, Michigan this week at the Kellogg's headquarters, it is absolutely being ignored. So we have got to scratch our heads about this. I think this is going to be a time in history that we look back on. I feel sadness of what we're doing to kids and to the adults in American population with food. You know, in every way, the medical associations have so discredited themselves. The scientists have so discredited themselves. You know, it's not a wonder we question authority. It's not a wonder why we are questioning the government.
Starting point is 00:14:41 They were in bed. They were with a COVID vaccine where the government, the Federal Reserve and Moderna are all making money off of something. they are forcing you to take. This is the best of the Glenn Beck podcast. Here's an interesting thing about gold. It is not just something you can use to create a softer landing in the event of a crash. Put up your seat tables. It's also a weather vein that shows you the direction the economic winds are blowing.
Starting point is 00:15:15 I was told years ago, don't wish for $3,000 an ounce because I'm like, you know how much money you can make. because the world would be on fire. Well, we're not at 3,000 yet, but we're well over 2,000. We are on our way. Please call Lear Capital today. They have a 24-hour risk-free purchase guarantee. They'll help educate you.

Starting point is 00:16:17 How are you, Senator? Glenn, I'm doing terrific. you. Great. You killed it on the debate with Allred. Just, I mean, it shouldn't have surprised anybody. I think maybe he was a little surprised that he did so poorly, but you could tell he was just nervous. He knew what he was walking into. You, Buzzsaw. Well, look, I also think he had a difficult task to begin with because what he is doing in this campaign is trying to run away from his entire record. He's trying to present a picture to the voters that is fundamentally false.
Starting point is 00:16:56 His actual voting record in his time as Congress has been extreme left. His first four years in Congress, he voted with Nancy Pelosi 100% of the time. He voted with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, their first two years in office, 100% of the time. So he's voted for open borders over and over again. He's voted for releasing violent criminals from jail over and over and again. He's voted for taxes and spending and debt. He's voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's assault on energy and oil and gas and jobs in the state of Texas. All of that is a terrible record if you want to run statewide in Texas because that's directly contrary to the values of Texas.
Starting point is 00:17:37 His whole campaign is millions of dollars trying to present a false image of who he is. And my objective in the debate was very simple. Lay out his record and lay out mine. his objective was try to hide his record, and I don't think that objective succeeded. No, it definitely did not. Senator, you mentioned that Al Red had voted on the issue of men playing in women's sports multiple times. I think he said four times. He kept trying to basically huff and puff and say it wasn't true.
Starting point is 00:18:12 What's the truth on us? Well, the truth is straightforward, and actually going into the debate, I mean, we had run several TV ads laying out his record on supporting boys playing in girl sports, men playing in women's sports. And he, look, those ads were doing damage. His negatives were going up and it was having a really impact. And so last week he put up a TV ad where he's just him standing, looking straight to camera, saying, this is not true.
Starting point is 00:18:42 I do not support boys and girls sports. This is a lie. Ted is a liar. That's his ad. now it was we had within 48 hours we had a response add up that had what he said and then just laid out the facts and so i did the same thing in the debate where he likewise said i do not support boys and girls sports and what are the facts why did you vote what are the facts are he supported it four separate times number one he is a co-sponsor of and he voted for a bill called the equality act the equality
Starting point is 00:19:16 Act mandated that boys use girls' restrooms, be able to use girls' changing rooms, be able to use girls' locker rooms, and be able to compete in sports. That's number one. Number two, there was a bill that was called the Protecting Girls and Women's Sports Act. It was a very narrow bill. It did one thing. It said that girls' sports are protected and boys can't compete in them. Women's sports are protected and men can't compete in them.
Starting point is 00:19:42 It's all that did. Colin Allred voted. No. The third thing he did, he signed on to something called the Transgender Bill of Rights. He was a co-sponsor of it. The Transgender Bill of Rights explicitly says boys should be able to compete against girls if that's how they identified. He proudly signed on to that. That's number three.
Starting point is 00:20:03 And then number four, number four, something he did just a couple of weeks ago. He joined with over 100 very left-wing Democrats. He signed a letter about our military. And here are the changes he said that he believes we need in our military. He said, number one, our military bases need to have drag shows. Number two, he said. Jeez. Taxpayers need to pay for sex change operations on soldiers on our military bases.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Number three, taxpayers need to pay for sex change operations and sterilization of children on our military bases. And number four, he demanded. that military bases be able to fly the transgender flag above the base. Now, look, that is a radical agenda. That is wildly disconnected from where Texans are. When it comes to our military, call me old fashion. I think our military ought to be the finest fighting force of the face of the planet.
Starting point is 00:21:06 I think they ought to be their job is to defend the United States of America, to keep Americans safe and to be prepared to kill our enemies. if necessary and all of this left-wing politics has no business being forced upon our military. That sadly is who he is and that's what he wants to see. I have to tell you, we talked about it. We've been talking about it quite a bit, but earlier this week we mentioned that your campaign is not getting any help from the Senate GOP. Mitch McConnell is not offering a dime to you and you have Soros and every big left
Starting point is 00:21:46 group coming down to try to make sure you are not the senator from Texas. These are all, that's all out of state money. And Mitch McConnell isn't doing, the GOP is worthless. They're not doing anything to help you. It is infuriating. Chuck Schumer has been explicit. I'm as number one target in the entire country. He is flooding cash into the state.
Starting point is 00:22:11 He is going to spend between $100 million and $150 million. in this race. We're being massively outspent. Glenn, you live in Texas. You know well. Colonnall Red has been statewide on TV for four months. Oh, and it's relentless. Everywhere. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:30 I just got up on TV a few weeks ago. And, you know, I was reading something criticizing, well, Cruz really should have been on TV four months ago. I would have loved to. It takes tens of millions of dollars that we didn't have. And you're right. Mitch McConnell has a super PAC with $4.000. $400 million that he's spending in Senate races.
Starting point is 00:22:49 He spent zero in Texas, even though there have been a dozen polls that show this race as a one-point race or a two-point race or a three-point race. By the way, Mitch did the same thing in 2018. My last election was at the time the most expensive Senate race in U.S. history. I was outspent three to one. I ended up winning by less than three points. And again, Mitch spent zero. and there's a reason. He uses that money to reward the senators who obey him and to freeze out the senators who stand up to him.
Starting point is 00:23:23 And if you're at home frustrated wondering how come so few Republican senators have a backbone and stand up to leadership? Well, the answer is it costs you $10 million or $20 million or $30 million or even $40 million. That's right. And so what it means is I have to rely on Patriots in Texas across the country. I want to ask your listener, please come to $10 million. Tedcruise.org, Tedcruise.org, come right now to Tedcruise.org and make a contribution, give 10 or 25 or 50, or maybe someone could give 100 or 500 or even a thousand. Because the only way we counteract, the 100 million plus from Chuck Schumer and George Soros is patriots and conservatives and common sense freedom lovers
Starting point is 00:24:10 coming to Ted Cruz.org, making a contribution right now. And I'll tell you. you, we're 19 days out from Election Day. Literally, you go on Election Day, you give $100 right now, and tomorrow that money goes out on TV to communicate with the voters, because it's real simple. If the voters know my record and his record, we will win. But the flip side is simple, too. If we don't have the money to let the voters know my record and his record, he will win. That will decide this race. It's why I need you to go to Tedcruise.org right now, and help us lay the records out, help us defend Texas and defend the country. You know, Bernie Sanders and AOC say that Texas is the first step in changing the nation.
Starting point is 00:24:55 I think it's the last step. If we lose Texas, we lose every time. Yes. Every time. Well, and actually, I'll say something that I've never said before, Glenn, AOC agrees with you. I know. That may be a first. That may hear of the heck out of you.
Starting point is 00:25:13 But both Bernie Sanders and AOC came to Texas two weeks ago. They came here to campaign for Colin Allred. Now, that will tell you who he is. AOC and Bernie Sanders are here because they see him as the key to succeeding with their agenda. And here's what AOC said. If we win Texas, we change the country for a generation. It's true. He understands.
Starting point is 00:25:40 That's it. This is the whole ballgame. And Colin Allred's record is hard, hard left. His record is voting for open borders over and over and over again. His record is voting for boys and girls' sports over and over and over again. His record is voting for releasing violent criminals from jail over and over and over again. His record is voting against oil and gas and energy and jobs in Texas over and over and over again. And if he gets elected, he would be a hard left senator, just like he's been a hard left House member.
Starting point is 00:26:17 And yet, the corporate media, every newspaper article you read about him, every TV news story, they describe him as a moderate bipartisan centrist, a middle of the road unifier who brings people together just like Nancy Pelosi. He has the identical voting record she does. And yet the media is spending millions. trying to spin and trying to lie, and that's what makes this very, very dangerous. So what's his name, Turtle Face, is not giving any money to Ted Cruz, but he'll give it to Cornyn, and we cannot have John Cornyn and a leftist representing the great state of Texas. It just can't happen. It can't happen. We lose the Republic if we lose this election. please go to
Starting point is 00:27:11 Tedcruise.org and donate. This is a very, very close election. This is probably, I would say, as close as Kamala and Donald Trump. I mean, it's a point or two. It could go either way. And the problem is, is in Texas,
Starting point is 00:27:31 we are so arrogant that we think, oh, Texas will always vote the right way. Texas is always, no, there are hundreds of millions, of dollars being poured into this state to change it blue because they know if they win in Texas it's all over. You can't allow this to happen. And with people like McConnell not helping, it's, uh, you kind of know where you weren't, you know where Ted Cruz stands. He's not for that game that the rhinos are playing. He's not for it. That's why he's not getting any of the money.
Starting point is 00:28:06 please donate now to tedcruise dot org tedcruz dot org ted thank you uh and uh please call us back tell us what you need we're there glan i appreciate you i did we need two things we need contributions at ted cruz dot org and we need every text and make sure you vote early voting starts on monday come out and vote get your friends to vote get your family to vote it's all about turnout and and and the other side is pushing really hard. Yeah, they're motivated. We need everyone who wants to keep Texas, Texas to stand up and fight right now. Yeah. Thank you very much. This is a really scary one because people are really, honestly, um, asleep at the switch. They just think I'm not going to vote. My vote's not going to
Starting point is 00:28:53 matter because, you know, Trump's going to win. Cruz is going to win. No, not this time. Not this time. Not with the amount of money that they have poured into this state. it is going to be close. Please, everyone in every state, don't count this as an easy win. It's not going to be. You've got to get out in each and every state and vote. This is the best of the Glenn Beck podcast.
Starting point is 00:29:26 It's a compilation of clips from various episodes. If you want to dig deeper into this interview, check out the full podcast episode. As of October 15th, 11 statewide ballot measures related to abortion were certified in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Nevada, South Dakota. All for the general election ballot in 2024. This is the most on record for a single year. Abortion is on the ballot, and you have to be very, very careful. I'm going to go to Bob Rommel, who is Florida State Representative. as they are having their debate about this abortion amendment.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Hello, Bob. How are you? Glenn, thank you so much for having me on it. Thanks for all you're doing. And I'm doing great today with my coffee and acetone. Thank you for listening. So talk to me about Amendment number four. Glenn, a couple years ago in Florida, you know, in Florida, we've done so many things to protect children here. First of all, we're the first state to ban boys from playing in girls' sports.
Starting point is 00:30:46 We stopped boys from going in girls' bathrooms. We stopped gender affirmation care for minors. And we also passed a six-week abortion ban a couple years ago. And before we passed the bill, we paid attention to the other side that was going to oppose it. They were talking about, you know, incidents of rape and incest, and we put those exceptions in. And then I talked to some young women that were talking about how expensive it is to raise a child. And so we put in over $700 million in programs to help those that would make that choice just because of financial reasons. And, you know, we have a great state. I think we have
Starting point is 00:31:23 the best state in the nation. Sorry, Texas. I know. I know. Texas is in your rearview mirror. I don't like it, but it's true. We still love you. But the left has been paying attention to what's going on. They can't believe so many good things. are happening, and Amendment 4, which would create the most liberal abortion laws in America, actually way more liberal than even France. It wasn't started in Florida, Glenn. It was started by the Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, George Soros, dumping millions and millions of dollars into our state to destroy it.
Starting point is 00:32:05 Almost every single one of these abortion amendments include one very important word. In Florida, no law shall prohibit penalize, delay or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health as determined by the patient health care provider. So that means abortion at any time. Partial birth abortion. That's everything. Is it not? It is at any time for any reason. Right. So first of, I'm disappointing in our Supreme Court. Maybe I shouldn't say that because they have to approve the language. It can't be vague. I'm very smart. Most of the people I know are pretty smart. Some are very smart. Nobody knows what a health care provider is because it doesn't describe it. It could be your masseuse. It could be your nail technician that says it's important for you. It could be your whatever. And viability, there's some vagueness there. I mean, in France, It says 14 weeks, period. Here, viability.
Starting point is 00:33:16 And it's disturbing. And when I talk to people, I know this is personal. I know it's, you know, it's dividing our nation. But when I tell them what's in the bill, they just don't want to hear it. And they said that's not true. I go, it's true. You have to read it. You have to understand it.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Glenn, a 14-year-old child in school can't go to the nurse and get an aspirin if they have a headache. I know. But the 14-year-old child could go to plan parenthood to get in a. abortion and the parent couldn't stop it. I know. I know. This is really, really dangerous. And everybody, I mean, if you are somebody who's against abortion, again, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Nevada, South Carolina. All of these, all of these states have a constitution amendment being voted on. What's the difference, Bob, between just a law and a constitutional amendment? Well, I'm elected every two years and I'm actually termed out in a couple weeks.
Starting point is 00:34:26 But if you don't like what I did, you can not elect me the next term. Or if we realized we did something that's not working, we can change it. It's nearly impossible to change a constitutional amendment. So in United States, most of your listeners, because they're smart, will know that there's 27 constitutional amendments in our country. In Florida, there's over 150 of them, and they're usually sponsored by outside people. They're pay for play, basically. They're confusing. We still have an amendment protecting pregnant pigs. I don't really know what it actually does, but it's a constitutional amendment protecting pregnant pigs, but I guess we're not going to protect pregnant moms anymore.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Wow. Sorry. They're awful. They can never, ever go away. That's why you come up here. I mean, we have open to our policy.
Starting point is 00:35:16 People come up. We visit them. Again, when we did our six-week abortion ban, I listened to people and I said, hey, we have to do something for these moms that are thinking about keeping her baby. You know, between hyperinflation,
Starting point is 00:35:28 they can't afford it. So let's take that off the table. Let's give them another reason to keep that baby. And we did it. We did it here. We do so many things to protect it. But, Glenn, it's even more dangerous than just Amendment 4. Across the nation, you know, if you look at the geographic map of the United States, there's way more, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:49 either conservative or moderate people out there that just want to be left alone. But the crazy radicals that are trying to destroy our country, they're using these citizen initiative ballots spending hundreds of millions, probably billions, all over to actually get rid of the legislative process. And you know what? It's, awful. So here's another problem with this. In Florida, it's legally necessary for a physician to be present at an abortion. But Amendment 4 just says a health care provider. But in Florida law, provider is a person that furnishes health care services and is licensed or otherwise authorized to practice in the state. That's a physician's assistant, a registered nurse, a nurse,
Starting point is 00:36:36 a nurse midwife, a licensed practical nurse, or an advanced practice registered nurse that is licensed. That's not a doctor. That's a midwife saying, yeah, you want an abortion? Okay, I can give that to you. And that's why I'm disappointed in our Supreme Court. How these things happen is, you know, you have to get 920,000 verified signatures, which it turns out there may have been some fraud there and you can't pay for signatures. and we believe it may have happened, but it's probably too late to change that.
Starting point is 00:37:09 But then you have to go before the court and say, okay, these things can't be vague because there's trickery in language and nobody really pays attention. And the court, you know, and many of the people who were appointed by Governor DeSantis, it was four to three approving the language. And unfortunately, the people that approved the language, they were the men that were appointed by Governor DeSantis. And I'm probably going to get in trouble for saying that. But, oh, well, I can't trouble.
Starting point is 00:37:37 You're out anyway. Who cares? There shouldn't be vagueness in this. You know, it should be clear. And listen, the one good thing our founding fathers did, they made it almost impossible to change the U.S. Constitution. In Florida and other states, it's for sale. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:37:55 Bob, thank you so much. Thanks for informing us on this. We'll keep hammering this. This is really, really important. Let me just give you the language in other states. States. Arizona establishes the fundamental right to abortion that the state of Arizona may not interfere with before the point of fetal viability. Again, what is that? That's constantly changing. Provide a constitutional right to abortion in the state constitution and allow the use of
Starting point is 00:38:24 public funds for abortion is Colorado. Provide a constitutional right to abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health as determined by the patient's health care provider. That's the Florida one. In Maryland, amend the Maryland Constitution to establish a right to reproductive freedom defined to include decisions to prevent, continue, or end one's own pregnancy. Wow, that's kind of open. In Missouri, amend the Missouri Constitution to provide the right for reproductive freedom and provide that the state legislature may enact laws that regulate abortion after fetal viability. Montana, amend Montana's Constitution to provide a state constitutional right to make and carry out decisions about one's own
Starting point is 00:39:16 pregnancy, including the right to abortion. Again, Montana, no restrictions. Nebraska, amend the Nebraska Constitution to provide that unborn children shall be protected from abortion in the second and third trimesters. Well, that's good. But also you have in Nebraska the right to an abortion to amend the Nebraska Constitution to provide that all persons shall have a fundamental right to abortion until fetal viability. In New York, add language to the New York Bill of Rights to provide that people cannot be denied. rights based on their ethnicity, national origin, age, and disability, or sex, including sexual
Starting point is 00:40:02 orientation, gender identity, gender expression, pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, and reproductive health care and autonomy. Wow. Nevada established a constitutional right for an abortion or to an abortion providing for the state to regulate abortion after fetal viability except were medically indicated to protect life, physical health, or mental health of the pregnant woman. That is a wide open door. And South Dakota provide a trimester framework for regulating abortion in the South Dakota Constitution. With an exception of two, the answer is no on all of those. Be aware they are making abortion a very big deal. The people who believe in abortion are going to be out in force, especially in those states.
Starting point is 00:40:53 That means you have to be out in a bigger force. Voting is so important. It is your civic responsibility as an American citizen. I don't care if you don't like either of the candidates. I don't. Choose life. The contrast here is so stark. I don't know what would keep you at home at this point.
