Have you thought about maybe risking your life? Join the CIA. Okay. First one is a recruiting ad for the CIA. Listen. When I was 17, I quoted Zora Neal Hurstens how it feels to be colored me in my college application essay. The line that spoke to me stated simply, I am not tragically colored.

There is no sorrow damned up in my soul nor lurking behind my eyes. I do not mind at all. at 17, I had no idea what life would bring. But Sora's sentiment articulated so beautiful. If that really was something that opened your eyes, don't you find that sad? I mean, who in her life was telling her she couldn't make it? Who in her life was saying you were tragically Hispanic or whatever? Who made her feel that way?

That would be a family tragedy. It would be a family tragedy. That's how you're teaching your child. I know my girls. feel, you know, have felt at one point or another, you know, ashamed of their body or I wish my body was different. Well, okay, that's what society says. And none of that is real. None of that is real. That's real for us. I mean, oh, yeah. For us, you know, we should be ashamed of our bodies, but for other people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think the audience understood that. Okay. I'm sorry.

Yeah, we're fat monsters that are just, oh my gosh, you don't even want to imagine it. But So, and I've told my girls the whole time, all of my girls know they could, they could grow up to be president of the United States. None of them want to. I used to threaten it as a punishment. You know what? You're going to grow up and you're going to be president of the United States. No, Dad. No.

So how tragic is that? But I digress because this is an ad for the CIA. Listen. So beautifully how I felt as a daughter of immigrants then and now. Nothing about me was or is tragic. Good. I am perfectly made. Great.

I can wax eloquent on complex legal issues in English while also belting Guayaquil de mi Samores in Spanish. That's fantastic. I can change a diaper with one hand and console a crying toddler with the other. Are you doing this at the CIA? I'm a woman of color. I am a mom. Right.

I am a cisgender millennial who's been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. Wait, wait, wait, stop, stop. With generalized anxiety. disorder? Does that sound like someone who should be working at the CIA? I don't know. I'm just always very, very nervous. It's not good. That's not necessarily the, I mean, it's not the stereotype of a CIA person who's like cold and caught. See, there you are talking about stereotypes. Yes. We need cisgender and non-sistgender, immigrants, non-immigrants, except for the people who have lived here for a long time.

are white. We need people who hate the cops. We need people who want to change the world away from this old system of dusty documents from these quote white founding fathers. We need some really nervous people that can change a diaper with one hand and sing some song on the other hand or something like that. Could you talk to me about, you know, if you're okay, the only thing I've heard this ad was I can I can talk deep legal doctrine or whatever she said. Yeah, that's maybe needed him. That's it. That's the only thing I've heard about anything CIA. What if one of the terrorists we have, you know, captivity has a needs to, their diaper changed. You know, you can only hear that song that she's belting. Right. I don't think I think one of

things making her nervous is trying to change diapers with one hand. I mean, who knows what's going to happen there, you should use two hands. Is it all possible? Yeah, well, it may not be. May not be. She may... If you're singing with your other hand. It's tough to...

Does she sing with her other hand? Is it like the little hand puppet? No, no, no. I don't know. I don't know. But I am glad to see that our CIA is finally going woke. I feel safer. And I think the world is safer.

This is one of those things I think you learn if you are a business person right now, right? You're running a business. Yeah. You, people would say, well, how do we recruit the younger generation to come work? Let's say the CIA, right? You know, how do we get them here? Yeah. I mean, like, they're different, you know, they're different people and we need to recruit them and we should target them in this way. And you can make that argument until you realize you don't want to hire them. Yeah. You do. If you're running a business, the last thing you want to do is hire someone who thinks this way. What's the name of that software company that last week came out and said, you know what? You can't talk about

woke stuff anymore. Yeah, base camp. Okay, base camp. They didn't even say woke stuff. They just said anything political. Anything political. You can't talk about it anymore because it's causing too many problems and we're a software company. We're not a political company. We're not here to change the world. We're here to change software. So go to work. No more talking. You know what happened? A third of the

employees walked out. And I can guarantee you that CEO went, I told you it would work. We didn't have to pay severance. We have no legal hassles. They quit. Now let's go find the people who just want to work and have had enough of this stuff. Yeah. But I know, but I think it's great. I think it's great that we have the CIA recruiting that way.

Now, just so I'm consistent, and I don't care about what you are. I don't care. I care about what you say and do. Here's the latest campaign commercial for the California governorship, gubernatorial candidate, Caitlin Jenner. Listen to this. First of all, he's outing himself. California was once the envy of the world.

We had what everyone else wanted. The American dream grew up here. Yet career politicians and their policies have destroyed that dream. It's been locked away, closed, shuddered, left in the dark, burned down. The government is now involved in every part of our lives. They've taken our money, our jobs, and our freedom. California needs a disruptor, a compassionate disruptor. I came here with a dream 48 years ago to be the greatest athlete in the world.

Now I enter a different kind of race, arguably my most important one yet, to save California. I want to carry the torch for the parents who had to be balanced work and their child's education. For business owners who were forced to shut down, for pastors who are not able to be with their congregation, for the family who lost their home and a fire, for an entire generation of students who lost a year of education. This past year has redefined our career politicians as elitist and the people in California as the warriors, the kings, and the angels. We never take kindly to glass ceilings here.

Instead, we shatter them. This one's way out there. We're the trailblazers, the innovators. California is facing big hurdles. Now we need leaders. We're unafraid to leap to new heights. We're afraid to challenge and to change the status quo. I want to prove that it is absolutely possible

if we only do it together. California, it's time to reopen our schools, reopen our businesses, reopen the golden gates. So I don't care if you're a Republican Democrat. I'm ready to be governor for all Californians to reclaim our true identity, to bring back the gold to the golden state. Now is the time to achieve that summit, to be the shining city on the hill, and together we'll restore and renew the California dream. It's about what happens from here. It's not just about one person.

It's about all of us. If you're on the left, how do you go against that? If you're on the left, how do you torch? Caitlin Jenner. How do you do it? Well, they'll just, he, she is a terrible, terrible Republican, a token. Right. I mean, they'll just do the same things they do to every black Republican who runs for office.

And if you're a, if you're a Republican, I don't know what Caitlin Jenner's policies are. But I do like the feeling of that ad. Well, we know two things about Caitlin Jenner. Well, we know multiple things, more things than we want to know about Caitlin Jenner. But there's just two main things we know. Well, the two main things have been. Well, I'm not talking about something else. Okay.

Caitlin Jenner will be better than Gavin Newsom as the governor. Yes. If Caitlin Jenner is to win, it will definitely be better than Gavin Newsom. And it definitely seems like Caitlin Jenner understands the harm that Gavin Newsom has caused for the state. And seems to understand the harm that wokeness is creating. Yeah. I mean, here is somebody that we were all told we had to accept because they never thought we would. They never thought conservatives would put their arm around Caitlin Jenner.

Okay. And they may not. I don't know. I don't know. I mean as compassionate. Oh, okay. They remember when he first said, I want to become a woman. I'm Caitlin Jenner.

They all said, you know, you're going to say she's beautiful. Gotta say she's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I'll give you electric shock unless you say she's beautiful. Right. Okay. And they never thought that we could be compassionate because they think we're monsters. Well, we were. And I have no problem with Caitlin Jenner.

I if I'm at a court of law it's a guy he's a guy he'll always be a guy chemistry tells me biology tells me he's a guy no matter what surgery he has done he's a guy but that's fine

I don't have anything against Caitlin Jenner you know if if she wants to be called a she I have no problem because she's not forcing me she understands that if somebody wants to call him her, him, or him her, it doesn't matter.

The self-confidence comes with from within. And he has no problem with people who call him he. That is fine with me. You want to call yourself an agave plant. All right. Kids, he's not really an agave plant. So, Mr. Agave, can I cut your limb and use you as sad? I mean, you know, does it matter?

What matters is the content of the character. Right. Will Caitlin Jenner be a good governor? I mean, I don't know. You know, we know it will be better than Gavin Newsom. And it will be satisfying if somehow Caitlin Jenner wins this race that we can say the first trans governor was a Republican. That'll just be fun to say. Oh, that would be great.

Just to torture the left. It'd be too weird. It's California. Oh, God. Caitlin Jenner is like one of the most normal people in California. Oh my gosh. Absolutely. By the way, Dwayne the Rock Johnson has said that he has an ambition to unite our country and run for president.

You want to unite the country. Please don't run for president. Don't wreck your movies. Don't. Please, don't. Everybody likes you. Please. Don't.

Don't. Don't do it. Don't do it. don't do it. Don't do it. I mean, Donald Trump was like the most popular guy in one of the reasons why the apprentice was so successful is because he rated incredibly high with African Americans. Correct. And that's why the networks loved Donald Trump so much back in the day. Remember, Donald Trump, we thought was going to be a flaming liberal and turned out to be pretty good president.

Dwayne the Rock Johnson, we're all going into it, you know, like a Bush presidency and our Supreme Court nominee. Oh, no, he's going to, we have no record. We have no reason to believe it. But he's going to be a conservative. Well, I don't think there's any, I mean, the only thing that would make you think he would be a conservative is he spoke at one Republican National Convention a zillion years ago. And if he reads his scripts, you know. My big thing on the rock and the reason why we should at least entertain. is think of the money

we could save on the military if when we have a war or whatever we just send him in by himself. We could just get rid of the military completely. Save all that money and then just send the rock into various conflicts. In a room with only one knife. And Putin and the rock are in it

and only one has to come out. But there's only one knife and it's on the table that are both equal distance from it. Who comes walking out of that room? Again, the rocks win at all these battles. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Oh, the rocks would have that paddle. Uh-huh. The rock, you could stab the rock like a hundred times.

Wouldn't he just keep walking toward you? Probably. He's probably got so much muscle there. It's not going to hit an organ. It's like me with fat. That's what that. That's why I have all of this. You go ahead and stab me in the stomach.

You're not going to reach anything. That was smart of you. Anything. Thank you very much. I'm a health freak. I am a health freak. So I am trying to eat healthier and I am. But the thing is, I don't like healthy food.

I don't like any of it. You've heard of a fat suit, right? I mean, there's got to be... When are we getting a skinny suit? Something that will make me look skinny. Because I just want treats all the time. I grew up in a bakery for the love of Pete. The bad news is no skinny suit is coming.

You actually have to do the work, blah, blah, blah. That's why I am eating built bars. It satisfies my sweet tooth, but it's a protein bar, but not like, you know, that's like eating stuff at the bottom of my chalkboard, usually. This is 100% real chocolate. It's low carb, low sugar. If I'm eating a protein bar as a trache, low sugar, if I'm eating a protein bar as a treat. Come on, you got to know it's good. And I am. Mint, brownie, cookies and cream,

the new flavors that are coming out all the time, they're fantastic. Go to builtbar.com and use the promo code Beck 15 for 15% off your order. Your mouth is going to water just looking at them. Trust me, Builtbar.com. Promocode Beck 15. The best of the Glenn Beck program. Do you remember the police officer that did the video about LeBron James on On TikTok, in case you missed it, here it is. Dispatch, I've arrived at that disturbance. We can have LeBron call my cell phone right away.

Please, thank you. Excuse me, sir. Excuse me. No, can you put the knife down, please, sir? No, no, no, sir, don't stab it. No, no, stop stab. Hold on. Hold on.

It's LeBron. LeBron. Hey, you got me again. Listen, I'm out here at this disturbance call, and there's a guy trying to stab another guy with a knife. What do you think I should do? Why does that matter? Okay, well, they're both black.

one guy's trying to stab another guy with a knife. Deadly force is completely justified. Uh-huh. I see. So you don't care if a black person kills another black person, but you do care if a white cop kills a black person, even if he's doing it to save the life of another black person? I mean, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense,

but then again, you are really good at basketball, so I guess I'll take your word for it. Okay, so... All right. This is a TikTok video. He was... They wanted to fire him. His marshal stood up.

for him and they suspended him for a week and there's much more to the story. Nate Sylvester is on with us now, getting ready to go back to work tomorrow, right? How are you? I'm good. How are you, sir? I'm, you know, I'm good. I'm a little disturbed because I'm a part-time resident of Idaho and all these Californians are moving in and they're wrecking it.

They're making it crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they are. Yeah. So the mayor is seemingly, this is what I hear. He wants to, he wants to fire you because he thinks it'll make him famous or get, you know, bonus, you know, some sort of anti-liberty points to fire you for this. Yeah, that's the rumor that I'm hearing. So far, I still have a job. I am supposed to return to work tomorrow. But, you know, I police in a very liberal area. and the city officials are very liberal and they weren't happy with the TikTok and they did want to fire me but lucky for me I have a very common sense loyal Marshall who went to bat

for me while trying to remain neutral at the same time so it's not to put her own job at risk but so far it's I mean the suspension wasn't great but I still have a job so that's good I think you could always get a job in Texas or you know other parts of the state I mean I put good words for in another part of the state um I appreciate it you had a you had a friend

that created a go fund me campaign um that's right and you you just wanted he was just trying to raise enough money for the suspension uh and I don't know what they pay police up in Idaho but last night when I checked it was at $454,8331

So that might be a little higher than the week's wages. Just slightly. It's unreal, Glenn. The amount of support that I've been shown has been very humbling and almost, it's been overwhelming. And not just with the donations to the GoFundMe, I mean, the letters and the text messages and the emails, people from all over the country and even in some parts of the world, Canada, Scotland, Mexico.

I mean, people are really stepping up here. It's really amazing to me that LeBron can say anything and nobody is in an uproar over it. Yeah. But you can't do anything even humorously poke back

with something that is very common sense. There's nothing that you said that was offensive in that. Nothing. Right. The argument doesn't make any sense, LeBron, and you're a stupid stupid basketball player. So why would we care?

Right. How is the morale of your compatriots? Well, they're still reeling from this thing. I work in a very small department. I have five co-workers, including my supervisors, and they've been fielding hundreds and hundreds of phone calls. They actually, this is really cool. They actually printed out all of the emails in support of me

And right now they're at about 10,000 because they want to show that to the city council to say, hey, look, we have much more support than we do opposition. I think there were like five total complaints. We have over 10,000 emails and show of support. So there, I mean, it's definitely a break in what I would describe is maybe the minutia of working in Bellevue, Idaho. So, but they do have to deal with a bit of a headache fielding all the phone calls and visits to the station. So that's the only part I feel bad about is they're very busy now because of me. Well, I think that's better than some places in the country. I mean, I know Bellevue is not like this.

This is a sad example here of political correctness that has gone just insane. But at least you're not, you know, a cop in some of these other cities, Los Angeles or in Minnesota. And I don't know how you guys are going to continue to do your job. I mean, when you are coming under attack and being called, the names that cops are being called, I don't know how you get up every day and do it. Well, and, you know, my Marshall made a good point. She told me that if they fired me, then she would walk off the job. And I told, I said, no, don't do that.

Please don't sacrifice your job for me. And she says, well, it's not necessarily all about you. So if the city officials can't have your back over a silly TikTok video, then what happens when we have a critical incident and God forbid we have to shoot someone? What happens then? Do we get left out to dry and no support from our city council or the rest of the community? So she's got a good point. That's happening all over the nation.

We're seeing good men and women, police officers walk off the job because there's no reason to do it anymore. I think that's why your go fund me account went up so high. People don't know how to support these guys, which I am really grateful. I've heard you talk about what you're going to do with the money. You're actually going to use that money to support other officers, right? Yes. So when the funds just started flowing in like they did, just very unexpectedly, I said, well, what do we do with this?

You know, I can't just keep this all to myself. That wouldn't be the right thing to do. So I started brainstorming with my friend and another sort of a business, a friend of mine that's got some experience with this thing. And we came up with the idea to create sort of like a scholarship foundation for displaced officers that when they find themselves in similar situations, you know, we can reach out to them. And, you know, if they miss a week's pay or a month pay, then we'd be able to help them out with, you know, help them out financially. and if they have legal fees, they can use the funds for that. I think that's fantastic. Yeah, it's in its primary stages, but that's what we're working on.

That is fantastic. Last night when I checked, it was at 454. I'd like to see if the audience could get that up to half a million dollars. It's a great, great cause to be able to help other officers. I know several people who are like, I don't know what to do. This is one of them. We have to strengthen the, the backbone of our officers, let them know that they're not just out in the cold with a giant

attorney fee that they're facing. We need to fight back on these things legally. Yes. Yeah, I agree. I agree. Nate, thank you so much. I appreciate your sense of humor. I thought the TikTok video, all TikTok videos are stupid, but I thought this was funny. And I thought, I thought this was funny. and I think Stu will agree. Anytime you want to take on LeBron, have at it. A hundred percent agree. I've got other other ideas going around in my head right now.

All right. Good. We'll look forward to him. Thank you so much. Nate Sylvester. You bet. You can, by the way, go to the GoFundMe page. It is the GoFundMe.

Please help Officer Sylvester and other families. just search for that and you'll be able to you'll be able to help out please help officer sylvester and other families this is the best of the glenbeck program and we really want to thank you for listening we are thrilled as always to have tim ballard with us he is the founder of operation underground railroad and the CEO now of the nazarene fund and he has one heck of a rescue story to tell you today. Hi, Tim. How are you? Great to be here. Yeah, good to have you. Thanks.

When did you first tell me about this? Trump was in office. Oh, yeah. It was several months ago. Yeah. It was an amazing rescue operation and one we haven't been able to tell until right now because of all the things that are in process. So many things in process. Yeah. Okay. Amazing actors involved. I mean, from Tony Robbins to the White House to, I mean, it was

nuts. Let me just let me ask you this while I'm here at the White House. house, that's a huge loss to the slave trade movement to lose Donald Trump. He was exceptional on this issue. He was exceptional on this issue. Millions of dollars downrange on the survivor care, on the rescue operations, just talking about it. Ivanka was actually even a louder voice and lots of plans in place.

And they all stopped. They all stopped. That is tragic, especially with what we have going on on the border now. Yes. I mean, people don't have any idea what's going on the border and the human trafficking. Yeah. We're incentivizing it. Our policies are incentivizing it.

You know, because we're, it's this horrible policy that says if you come across with a child in your hand, you basically, within 72 hours you're released into the United States to a notice to appear or we call notice to disappear because they never show up. Right. And now they're in the country. And they just got to recycle these kids. And they're using them to, as pawns, basically, pairing them with, with clients of the smugglers. But eventually these kids and these women, they're being traffic. They're being sold on the path to the United States. And we're just saying, keep coming.

Keep coming in. And we're just, we're creating. I mean, it's. So bad. So bad. Okay. So tell me this story. And you have to lay the parameters out because there's things we can't talk about.

Yeah. including the countries of destination and origin. Right. Which is unfortunate because the country of origin kind of adds an extra layer of trouble. Yeah. But go ahead. Tell the story. But we, it's a Latin American country.

And this is happening. We have actually expanded our mission statement to include not only children but also women. Women are four times more likely to be trafficked. And with all these COVID shutdowns and lockdowns, I mean, we're having women who are being trafficked from Thailand into Africa from Latin American countries in the Caribbean. So this is kind of representative of a lot of places and a lot of things we're doing. But this story, 10 women. Professionals.

Yeah. I mean, these are, one was a law enforcement officer, believe it or not. Wow. Yeah. But the more important fact is 15 children amongst all of them. They're trying to take care of their kids. Their country is in collapse. And this woman shows up one day.

This was probably about a year to a year and a half ago. and says, I can give you a job in a very high-end resort town island in the Caribbean. And it was a professional job. These were all professional women. And it was a professional job. This person came into the country where nobody had a job. Right. And said, look, I know you have to feed your family.

And we have a professional job. And this woman looked professional. And she had the pictures and the, and it's a resort town that everyone's familiar with. come on down and it's just a few hour flight from your home. And so these women gave their children to grandma, grandpa, aunts and uncles, in some cases, husbands, and took off for a three-month journey to go make some money to save their families.

And they get there, and they came at different times. They didn't all come together, but they land and their passports are taken to process. Some are given drinks, but they all have one thing in common. They wake up in another country where they don't speak the language, one of the most horrific corrupt countries in the world and wake up literally naked

and raped immediately and told this is your new life you will work here and you will be a sex slave in essence. They have these women, Glenn, because our guys were on the ground there and literally in a jail cell behind the brothel literally bars

that lock from the outside. And our team got the lead. We're actually looking for kids in this area and we got this lead that there's a bunch of these women who don't speak the language. They don't want to be there. Our guys went in pretending to be clients. And the first time they went in, now by the way, these women are praying women. They were just praying every night. God, send us anyone, someone, because there's no way out. What can they do? No passport. Don't speak the language. No way to communicate with anybody. And this is their, this is their stuck. Our guys go in. and talking about doing a party at this brothel nightclub kind of place with the owners.

And they're buying it like, great, you know. One of the women looks up and sees our guys who look, they look like sex tourists. You know, our guys are awesome, undercover operators. But they sent something. It was a spiritual connection, truly. We talked to them later. And they said, we sent something about your guys. They're different.

There's something different about them. So they wrote a little note. They got together, and one of the women wrote in her left hand. so that it couldn't be traced back just in case their spiritual hunch was wrong. Right. Wrote in their left hand, Ayudanaos, Por favor.

Help us, please. And walked over to one of the operators who's actually here at the studio today and gave it to him. And he opened it, looked at it. He called me immediately and said, you won't believe this. Like, we've been made,

but I think by the right people, they know who we are. And later they just said, there was just something about you guys. And again, it was the spiritual thing. So we were able to get in. Now, this country, as you know, Glenn, because we've talked a lot about it. In fact, you've been there with us.

Very corrupt. Yes, very corrupt. And we know this. And that's why people say, don't work in this country. Right. Because the, the couple will turn on you. Right. Leave them.

That's it. We had no choice. Right. So we literally go into this place. The cops are like ready to go. Warrant signed. It looks legitimate. They get into the place to get the girls out.

And the cops start taking money from the traffickers right in front of our. our guys. And we get the girls out immediately. We had this plan ready to go in case this happened. Our guys are literally at this point being chased by cops and traffickers running with these 10 girls from safe house to safe house. We had it all planned out and layered. So we had another law enforcement agency who we didn't tell about the operation in the

same country, knowing that we have them probably for about 10 to 12 hours before they figure out how to leverage the whole situation in their benefit. But we got them. They were clean for the time we needed to be clean and they helped us get the passports. But we're running around. The whole thing was filmed that it's being produced into a documentary that's going to come out, hopefully by next year. That is crazy. We have some footage.

I don't know if we've been playing it here. This is the after the rescue footage where you guys, I think this is when you guys are, you know, trying. to, uh, yeah, you saw Tony Robbins jet there. So the story, the story gets crazy.

We, we basically, we get help from the UN in a neighboring country that gives them temporary visas to get over and they're literally hiding for seven weeks

in another country. But it's close enough to the trafficker country to where they can't come out. So they're in hiding for seven weeks. And what do we do? Uh, we can't take them through a commercial airline

or airport because we think there's, traffickers ever looking for these girls. This is a ton of money they're losing. And they're not arrested because they just paid the cops off. So this is extremely dangerous. We generally don't work this way. We generally,

when you get a lead, what do you do? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're not going to get them out. Yeah. So I call Tony Robbins. I said, Tony, I got to get these girls out of this country and I can't take him through a public airport.

He says, no problem. I didn't even bat an eye. I'm sending my 737 down right now to pick them up, just like that. And then we had the problem of, where are they going to go? They can't go back to their home country. You know where that place is. They can't go back there. No.

The traffickers got them from there. They know where their houses are, their homes are. Luckily, we had super tight connections with the White House at the time. Again, just like Tony, one phone call to the White House. We need visas. This never happens. They're not going to give us visas. There's no nexus direct to the United States.

Right. No, instantly, no problem. You'll have them as soon as we can print them out. Got visas for them and got them back to the United States. And the White House didn't publicize this, by the way, at all. It was right in the middle of an election year. And based on the country it was, and I mean, it would have been a great political. It would have been a massive, massive story and massive story that could have played on so many different angles.

And it's one of the reasons. again why my thoughts of Donald Trump and his family have just changed so deeply. He did not exploit it. He didn't. And quite honestly, he should have, but he didn't. We didn't even ask them not to. We were just hoping they wouldn't because we don't want this, you know, we would have to have a discussion about, no, you can't do it.

Right. Didn't even ask. Didn't even ask, but said we do request that they come and get an official welcome at the White House. Unbelievable. So they, Tony's plane takes him to. to DC, they get taken to the White House and they're told, welcome to the United States, and not a peep, not a camera in the place.

Unbelievable. No one knew. Unbelievable. And the other stop, Tony requested, please come to my house. I want their first day of freedom to be at my house, which is this beautiful mansion on the ocean. Yeah. And that was literally their first steps on American soil were, because they went from the

tarmac to a bus. Their first step was Tony's house. And, oh, my, it just tears everywhere. Tony and Sage just, just, Showering them with prayers and gifts. Those people are amazing. Unbelievable people. Yeah.

Really truly amazing. Really, you know, you can think what you want about Tony Robbins, but until you've met him, you, I mean, it's easy to think. That's just, that's just, you know, he's just doing this. He is one of the most, and his wife is amazing. Oh, my gosh. Amazing. Yeah.

Really genuine. Unbelievably genuine. Even better than you see them on stage. I mean, oh, yeah. Camera's on off the same people, no matter of. what yeah yeah exactly the same
