We'll get into that. And lots more coming up in one minute. You know, one of the easiest mistakes to make when buying a house is assuming you're only buying a house. But the truth is, The truth is you're not. You're also buying the neighborhood.

You're buying the commute. You're buying the school district. You're buying the neighbors. You haven't met yet. And you're buying every little surprise that comes with all of that.

I trust.com. That's real estate agents I trust.com. All right, so yesterday Francesco Wong, I always want to call her Wong for some reason. It's Hong.

She lost in her bid to become governor of Wisconsin. Wait, what? Yeah, the socialist psycho actually lost the election. And on the surface, does it seem, oh, good, right? You don't want a socialist psycho, even having a chance to win in November.

But would she have had a better chance or a worse chance of losing to the Republican in the general election? Oh, yeah. That's a good question. A lot of experts think this guy, the guy who won, has a better chance of beating the Republican than she would have. Now, who knows? And you don't want to even take a chance, really, that the socialist is going to win in these cases. I mean, they are so far out. So the person that was running against Hung, is he like a socialist light? Is he part of the Democrat Socialist Light Party?

Yeah, he's, I mean, he's super liberal, obviously. But he's more of a normal liberal than she is. I mean, she was so weird that she hated Thanksgiving, except that was her favorite holiday, but she wanted to eliminate. Right. Right. I had the first meal I cooked when I was a chef. Okay.

Okay. Whatever. She also apparently hated Christmas because she talked about in 2019, she felt attacked when at a workplace, the IT bro, as she called him, changed the computer background to show snow and Christmas trees. Oh, no. Oh, no. She didn't like that.

She felt threatened by it. I don't know why she just didn't change the background. I didn't have the admin rights, bro. Maybe she couldn't. She had to get a hold of the bro. We do have that problem here. If you're not the administrator, you can't make changes like that. So maybe she was stuck with it.

And that freaked her out. Threat her every day. Every day she came at the computer. It was snowing on my computer. Unbelievable. She also wanted to ban the police, eliminate police. She wanted to eliminate prisons. Yeah, that's a good idea.

That's a good idea. She wanted to eliminate ice, of course. She wanted to eliminate the Senate. I mean... Yeah, I mean, it's just burn it all down. Psychotic. So the other guy didn't want to do necessarily those things, but he doesn't want to raise taxes. You know, he's not good on immigration and all of that nonsense.

But at least... Yeah, he doesn't want to close down ice. He just wants him gone. Yeah, right. Exactly. I'm not going to allow him to do anything. Yes. Yeah.

But we really have a democratic socialist problem in this country. What kind of do? They've got their hooks in everywhere you turn. seemingly there's an issue. But there was a great interview that the New Yorkers David Remnick did with the DSA co-chair, Megan Romer. She's a real winner. It's just a darn shame. She's not running for anything right now because you'd love to see her in office.

She's in control of the DSA. What are we talking about? Right. Well, not in full control. But wait, she'll get her grubby hands. on the full control soon. Well, you hope so. You're going to find out how brilliant she is in just a second here.

But David Remnick, I was kind of surprised that he conducted a pretty good interview. Yes, he did. Tries to hold her feet to the fire. Here they are talking about taxes. But we do believe in taxing the hell out of millionaires. Yeah, absolutely. What is taxing the hell out of the mean? Good question.

Yeah, you know, again, I don't have like a solid, but I think. Wouldn't you? Yes. I mean, if you're the co-chair, if you're the co-chair of the DSA, shouldn't you be more specific than just taxing the hell out of something? Yes! What exactly do you mean? Yes!

So again, it's democracy, right? And we have to look at what we need to spend and what we need. We don't want to depend on the existence of millionaires because that means people are still getting exploited. So yeah, we need to look at what we need to pay for in the interim, what sort of tax base we need for that to happen. and then and build from there. Okay.

So even these psychos don't have an answer for that. Like how much are you talking about? And usually they're not ashamed to tell you. I mean, they want to eliminate the police and prisons for heaven's sakes. Tell us what taxing the hell out of somebody means. What do you want to take 50%? You want to take 100%.

What do you want to do here? How much is enough? And what are we doing with that money? I mean, is that money just being redistributed to the people on the streets? Exactly, yeah, of course it is. There's no, there's, you're not paying for prisons, you're not paying for ICE, you're not paying for the Senate, you're not paying for any of the city services, I guess, right? I mean, the municipality, the people that are holding office aren't there. What exactly is the money that you're getting from these millionaires that you hate so much doing?

Yeah. And we have to stop once you, once they stop being millionaires, right? Then the people aren't oppressed working for them. Mm-hmm. What happens then? But the people who want to tax the hell out of millionaires and billionaires never have that answer. What are you going to spend it on? How much are you going to take?

What is their fair share? Because the upper 1% already pay 51% of the burden. The top 1% of earners pay 51% of the tax burden. How much should it be? Well, not that. I'll tell you what, that's not enough. No, it's never enough. to these people. It's never enough. They don't want people to be wealthy. They don't want people to be

successful in this country. They don't care what you've created. They don't care how it's helped humanity. It's oppressed of the humanity. Right. Yeah. You think so? You think Amazon has oppressed humanity? Oh my gosh. Yes. Oh, yeah. SpaceX and Tesla. Oh, the hatred of the people that worked that for him. I know. Elon's only made, I don't know how many people. millionaires? Well, it was when he went, when he took SpaceX, uh, public, thousands. Yeah. Thousands. In fact, some of them became billionaires. And then thousands of them became millionaires. That's a terrible thing. That's a terrible thing. That's terrible. Now you just got a bunch of more people who need to be taxed that are busy oppressing other people. Yep. That's right.

But I mean, that is the socialist. It is. Yes, it is. Now, of course, what's her name here? Megan Romer. Megan. She's a great spokesperson for them. She's got all the numbers and all the facts to back everything up.

I mean, it's shocking how bad she is. It really is. I mean, I know my line is if someone puts a mic in front of you, you don't have to speak. That's, you know, it's a good rule of thumb. And a lot of people needs to practice that. but she, you know, when she should, but the mic is at her house. And so. Yeah.

Yeah. So she goes ahead and speaks and tries to answer questions. Here she is talking about her politics. You describe yourself as a John Stewart liberal. Tell me about your life until 2018. What were you doing? What was your mindset and why did it change? Absolutely true.

Got most of my news from John Stewart. That was my primary news source. I'd read the Sunday Times and I'd read John Stewart and I actually I did read the New Yorker and sometimes even for more than the cartoons. I appreciate that. I what happened? What, what, what turned? So after Hillary Clinton did not win and I was supportive of Hillary Clinton.

I was not a registered Democrat at that point. I was registered independent. And then she didn't win. And I was horrified. I was baffled. I tried to become involved in the Democratic Party. What I ended up involved in was this like women's club where you like have speakers. Like you weren't actually making any decisions.

You were hearing people talk about a book. And that was all really frustrating because I was like, who's doing anything? What are we pushing anything toward? And a friend who was a folk musician said, you know, we are starting this DSA chapter. You should come to a meeting. I was like, ugh, the socialists. And I was like, all right, well, I'll come to your meeting because we're friends, but I'm not saying comrades. And I went to the meeting.

And I was just so relieved they were actually doing something, just anything. They had plans to just do something. That's a problem. Yeah. That's a problem that we're seeing all over the country for sure is because they're doing something. They're not doing the right thing, but it's something. It doesn't matter. They're perceived as doing something.

Yep. And she's doing something. If you're doing nothing, then what you're doing is oppressing the people. You are doing something. You're oppressing people and you're making money and you're busy out there oppressing. And we can't have that. Oof. Again, she shouldn't be the co-chair of the Glee Club.

And here she is the head of a, you know, a party that's becoming fairly significant. And she's just butt stupid. She's the national? Yeah. Because AOC made a point of saying that AOC has nothing to do with the national. She's just the New York local chapter. And that's better, I guess, worse, or about the same? What is it?

It's different. I do like the fact that the New Yorkers, David and Rebnik, seems to be completely disgusted with her. And he's doing a great job by keeping a great job, letting her just spew her dumbness. Yep. I mean, that's a, instead of arguing anything, just let her spew or dumbness. Yep. And just hold her feet to the fire a little bit. Yep.

Just push back enough to say, wait, shouldn't you have that number? Yeah. Shouldn't you know what you're talking about? Really well done. Yeah. Yeah. He does a nice job here, which kind of surprises me. I wouldn't expect that from the New Yorker.

But he actually does a really good job. Then, of course, he asks her about Israel. Oh, boy. of Israel in any form, essentially a red card in DSA. As I understand it, in 2024, DSA's National Political Committee withdrew its endorsement of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over her support for House resolution stating that denying Israel's right to exist as a form of anti-Semitism. And her local chapter stuck with her. And this was an argument that continued on. Where are you on it? Yeah, so that was like a very complicated and very like inter-DSA bureaucratic question, but convention decided that, yeah, this is a solid red line. No defense or economic support for Israel.

Wow. Does Israel have the right to defend itself, according to DSA? What is the position that DSA is headed toward here? Is it for a two-state solution? Is that, is that? No. Or is it a binational, one-state solution? What, in fact, is the position of DSA?

Yeah, so our position is a free Palestine with the capital in Jerusalem. So I think that could be safely read as a one-state solution. So the Camp David accords that were being negotiated at the beginning of the century under the Clinton administration, had the Palestinians accepted it, that would have satisfied you. Good question. I need to look at what the actual specifics there were. I don't know them off. Because the fact is, I have no idea what you're talking about. Is that obvious? I mean, that is so obvious. She has no idea what he's talking about there.

She has never heard about it. She doesn't know anything about it. Not once. You know, that's a good question. I don't know all the specifics on that or anything at all about that or anything else. I mean, I don't know all the specifics either, but I'm just, I mean, you know what happened. Yes. You know what happened there.

She doesn't. she really doesn't and she favors a one state solution and that state is not Israel she doesn't believe Israel has the right to exist well I mean they can go somewhere else somewhere else and I think she explains that uh or at least in part good question I need to I need to look at what the actual specifics there were I don't know them off the top of my head but yeah so when you say does each real have the right to defend itself people humans peoples have the right to live in safety Absolutely. But if that safety means doing genocide to somebody else, then no, that's not defensible. Darya Liza Avila Chevalier recently won a primary election in New York City, and it's almost sure to win the general election.

She attended an October 8th pro-Palestinian pro-Hamas rally, which many people saw as a justification of the October 7th attack. And some of her tweets have been extremely ugly on this score and on others. Do you fully support her in all these activities and what she's had to say? I think Dariya Lisa can speak for herself, certainly, and I think she's apologized for some pieces of that and has been quite... Not for attending that rally. Not apologetic about other pieces of that. And... Do you support her yourself in that? Yeah, I do.

Why? Because... In other words, you would have gone to that rally had you been able? That's a good question. I probably would have. Yeah. Yeah. I don't live in New York city, so I wouldn't have... One day after the slaughter of 1,200 people and taking over 200 hostages, you would have come and rallied behind Hamas. I think that October 7th was largely inevitable. If you put people in an open-air concentration

camp and you deprive them of rights of dignity, of food, of the ability to live in safety, you have to expect that they are going to not take that for that long. I mean, wow. First of all, open air precludes it being a concentration camp. So that doesn't work at all. All right, AAA 727BECK. More coming up in one minute.

She supported Hamas on October 8th. She would have gone to that rally like Daria Liza did, which means that they supported the slaughter of Israel and Israelis, of innocent Israelis on October 7th, because Israel hadn't responded yet. Has it done any of it. They hadn't responded at all. No.

And so you support just the slaughter of Israelis. Yeah, all the violence was from the Palestinians and Hamas, if I remember correctly. I might get that screwed up, but I'm just thinking October 7th. Now, it seems to be pretty accurate. I think you've got to feel for it. Okay. For what happened there. And they're fine with it. In fact, they're supporting it because they're showing up at the rally for it on behalf of on behalf of the slaughter of 1,200 Israelis. And as you mentioned, over 200 kidnappings as well. So they took 200 hostages.

They killed 1,200 Israelis. And you're supporting them in that effort. Yep. That just shows that this is an anti-Jew thing. Oh, for sure. She's pretty unabashed about it. Yeah. Pretty open about it.

Well, despicable. They have a right to exist. Well, kind of not, though. People, people. you know, can defend themselves. Oof. And that's what they were doing. So she doesn't actually believe that.

No, she does not. So if you're in Israel, you don't have a right to defend yourself. That's kind of gone now in her mind. For sure. And in the DSA. So just know, if you support the Democratic Socialists of America, that's what you support. The elimination of Israel.

and a one state solution that's just Palestine, no Israel. Wow. That's it, though. That's it, though. Don't worry about it. And, of course,

you got to tax the hell out of anybody who's been successful in America. I don't know what that means necessarily. I just know you've got to tax the hell out of them. You're a millionaire. We're taking your money. Right. All right, AAA 727 BECK.

With the DSA supporting a one state solution in the Middle East and that state being Palestine, it just amazes me that there are Americans still that support that party at all. I'm not sure what aspect of the Democratic Socialists of America you like, but there's not much to like as far as I can tell. But as far as supporting Israel, I'd like to know, take a temperature of the room, do you still support, where do you stand now with Israel and the support that we give to them? Do we continue to send them $3.5 billion a year? or is it time to amend that arrangement?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said Israel would reject the 15-point proposal for peace in the Gaza put forward by President Trump. Netanyahu said Israel rejects the 15-point document. The IDF will not make any withdrawal until Hamas is truly disarmed and will continue to thwart threats against our forces and citizens. Now, President Trump in July announced an agreement for Hamas to disarm and for Israeli Israeli defense forces to withdraw

from the Gaza Strip as part of that ceasefire. Right. So I guess until they disarm, they're not going to support the agreement. That's what they said. Right.

And I think Netanyahu's you know, like the peace plan that we, I guess, have preliminarily looked at or written with Iran, talked about all the neighboring states, you know, can't be attacked. Right, Lebanon, Syria. You know, it's like, no, no, we're not agreeing to that. Yeah, so we're kind of in a tough position with Israel right now.

And, you know, Netanyahu has said that eventually they're going to wean themselves off of American sport. He did say that. Absolutely, he did say that. I don't know that his friends in the Knesset were agreeing with him. I haven't heard a lot of, yeah, what he said. I haven't heard a lot of that. No, I don't think so. Oh, hey, Benji, what are you doing? That's a lot. Three and a half billion a year. You're going to just all of a sudden do without that.

Yeah, there's going to be some withdrawals. But the thing is, I think there's a lot of Americans right now. Oh, yeah, absolutely. tired of it. Absolutely. Tired of supporting Israel, tired of supporting really anybody with foreign donations. Absolutely.

And on top of that, you have the, you have the DSA members who want to just, you know, they just want to be rid of Israel altogether. They don't want them to exist. And then you have the people like Tucker Carlson who just hate Netanyahu.

You know, he's finding common ground with others like Hunter Biden. And I don't know about Thomas Massey or what's her face from Georgia. But they just hate Netanyahu. I mean, that's, that's, that's, that, that's, that, that's, that, that, that, that, that Natchahu, that guy. That guy.

Yeah. So, I, I, I, I, I think that they, I think Thomas Massey is pretty much done with supporting Israel at all. Isn't he? I, honestly, I don't know. I mean, I think he's, I think he's, I think he's done with support. supporting them completely. That's probably part of the package, right?

He doesn't want to send $3.5 billion anymore. What can I think of the Marjorie Taylor Green? The chick from Georgia. Yeah. Yeah. TG. Yeah. She says who appreciates me calling her a chick.

I think she probably does. Yeah. She probably does. But yeah, there was way too much agreement with Tucker and Hunter Biden. the other day. Oh yeah. A big time. Two hours. Two hours.

And it was a... They agreed on Israel. They agreed on many other things. The hatred of, the hatred of, uh, BB Netanyahu is very prevalent and spoken about. Um, and then, uh, you know, a hunter did a huge talk about, you know, his, his, his drug addiction and his rehab from that and how his wife helped him. And what a wonderful thing. you know, it is now.

And Tucker just ate it up, lapped it up. It was wonderful. Interesting, the support he's getting from some. It is interesting. Been supposedly on the right for a really long time. And they're rehabilitating Hunter Biden. Yes, they are. Why are we doing that?

Yes, they are. And they talked about, you know, he talked about his debts. He's, you know, he's still. Yeah, he's deeply in debt, isn't he? He still always, he was, he was. millions of dollars in debt. So he's hoping, you know, he's working for a couple of, a couple of places in L.A. that help the homeless.

And then he has his substack. And what else did he have? I can't remember. He's doing these interviews and he's hoping that it all work out. I bet he is hoping it'll all work out. He's painting. Oh, good. And he's writing a substack.

And so he's hoping that. it all works out. Fettie is, being millions of dollars in debt. Any idea how much he's getting for his paintings now? Because I think most of the money that was going to paintings was really for access to Joe Biden when he was president. Shoes. Yeah, I'm sorry. Wow.

Yeah, I'm sure the paintings were fantastic as well. Whatever he's getting for them, it's not enough. I'll say that. I think people were paying $50, $75,000. At the time, in fact, they stopped reporting on it, right? Because they didn't want to be known how much a lot of his paintings were getting sold for. And, yeah, I mean, people like you thought it was to get access to his dad. Huh, whatever.

Silly of me. Really silly. Whatever. I'm sure the paintings are Renoir, like Monet-ish. Years to come. Yeah. You'll be happy to say, is that a Biden? Yeah, I'm sure that's the case.

That's going to happen. It is. It is. That's an HB signature. That's a. Yeah. So people will be willing to pay. That's an original.

Ones of dollars. I'm sure. And this is just a guess that you'll be able to find them in people's addicts all across America. Yes. Yes, you will. Also, some stunning admissions by Anthony Fauci lately have been pretty amazing that, you know, he's not necessarily admitting to anything, but we are finding some. We have evidence of stuff that he has been said, yes, that it's been said throughout the COVID years.

Newly released texts from Senator Rand Paul and Ron Johnson from Wisconsin show. that Fauci and other health officials actually knew about a miscarriage risk to the coronavirus vaccine but told the public that it was completely safe for pregnant women. The exchange showed Fauci referring to the miscarriage risk in texts

to Surgeon General Vivek Murthy and Dr. Rochelle Wilensky who was the director of the Center for Disease Control at the time. that's absolutely despicable. Oh, no question. I mean, no. And look, at the time, we had talked about the study that they were doing on pregnant women

that they just stopped so they didn't like the data. I know that study, we don't even do that study. Never mind. Never mind. It's fine. They should get the vaccine. I just watched a, and aside from that, I just watched a story that was a CNN.

story during the pandemic, the height of the pandemic, and Fauci was really saying that everyone should be vaccinated and wear a mask. CNN went chasing a doctor who was questioning everything about the vaccine. And I mean, they hunted him down like he was a criminal. Right. And that's how people like him and us were treated for even questioning it. Yeah. You, oh, you, you, you, you, you, weren't allowed to. So, I mean, it's, it's amazing. And now we're finding proof that, you know, these, I mean, we knew it, right? I mean, we didn't. You, you may not have, maybe, maybe the, you know, maybe the, a lot of Americans didn't know it. But, I mean, if you followed it. I think a lot of Americans did know it. Um, here's what Fauci said in February of 2021 on pregnant

women and the COVID-Vax. Since the EUA, and under, the EUA, approximately 20,000 pregnant women have been vaccinated with no red flags, as we say. And this is being monitored by the CDC and the FDA. Right.

Wow. Meanwhile, behind closed doors. Yeah. There were red flags, weren't there? There were a lot of red flags, more than red flags. They were discussing the uncertainty that Americans were facing and the things that people

were bringing up and there was missing pregnancy data pregnant women excluded from trials who statement the World Health Organization statement citing the lack of data and a theoretical concern about miscarriage after the second dose so they already knew about it and then they kept telling the American people it was perfectly safe safe and effective we are not here you do not see us here pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, Anthony Fauci, who... Oh, he most definitely. Has been despicable for, and way before the COVID vaccine.

Oh, was being discussed. I mean, you go back to the 80s with this guy, and he really should be in jail. He should be in prison. I mean, and look, he was worried about COVID all along. It's, I will say that, you know, you could probably make the case, and I am, I'm not one to have to do all the work to make this case. But you could probably go back and make the case that Anthony Fauci helped create COVID had his hands in that.

Oh, you could definitely make that case. He had his hand. With the gain of function that they're doing in China. He may have even had the elixir in his hands. Which is why, you know, because he was funding that lab in Wuhan and knew it the whole time. And through other entities. That's another thing.

They knew the whole time. Yes. that the virus came from the lab. And then they just tried to deflect attention from that because we were funding. He was funding it. And at the time, remember, he was told not to. They weren't supposed to be doing the gain of function testing. Right.

So he was, to him, oh, I was giving money to this organization. What they did with it. I didn't know what was going on. So don't look over there. Look at the wet market where it came from bat soup and monkeys. Unbelievable. triple 8-7-27-B-E-C-K. Glenn Beck is back after this.

It feels like every conversation about weight loss eventually turns to injections these days. I mean, you probably heard about all of that by now. There are a lot of commercials pretty much running around the clock. These results can be dramatic, but for a lot of people, you know, giving themselves a shot every week is suboptimal, you know, along with the potential side effects. It's not something that's really appealing to a lot of people. It's one thing, of course, people do want to lose weight. But, you know, you really want to go that far? Do you really want to use that?

AAA-727B-E-CK. I love the things that are coming out about COVID right now on Anthony Fauci and many other fronts. In fact, Cam Newton, former quarterback in the NFL, now he's got a podcast like every other living organism on this planet. he just said yesterday that it wasn't just Aaron Rogers. You might remember Aaron Rogers saying that when they asked him if he had received the Vax,

he said, yeah, I'm immunized. Yeah, I'm immunized. Which was an interesting choice of words. He was just trying to avoid the blowback. But he knew that would start a firestorm. He knew that he was in for a firestorm because everybody who didn't get the Vax had a fire storm in their life. It's either yes.

It's either yes or you got the crap beat out of you. Yeah. Right? Absolutely. And that's not a surprise. Look, with Kim, you know, talking about, you know, how other NFL players in Green Bay and other teams throughout the league

had that same thing. Of course they did. Right. Of course they did. Yeah. That was the whole point of it. And these guys knew that there would be a firestorm. So they just...

They just went along. Yep. You're right. Yeah. A lot of them faked it. Absolutely. And they got the fake certificate or whatever. Cam was saying he saw some that looked fake, actually looked fake.

But there was legitimate fake fax cards out there. Legitimate fake fax cards. You hear me. There were legitimate fake vax cards. Absolutely authentic replica. In fact, we know people who've had them. It's an authentic replica. We do.

We do. But it's just fascinating because Aaron Rogers got so much flack for that. And he continues to get flack. And people hate his guts because he avoided the vaccination. He didn't want to get a vaxed. He didn't want it in his body. And he's paid for it ever since. And then to have Cam Newton come out and say it wasn't just him.

It was a lot of people in the NFL. And I'm sure it was. Absolutely. It's really nice to have it confirmed. Well, that's what's all. happening now is the confirmation. Now, what becomes of these confirmations that we'll see. Yeah, well, nothing. I mean, the Anthony Fauci haters want him dragged through the streets, you know, and stoned from... Or at least charged with something. I don't know about stone,

but I do want him charged with something. I do know about stone. There's plenty of people I thought that would be happy about that. But there's some in this building who are definitely not Anthony Fauci fans. No, they are not. But, you know, absolutely. Okay, so he gets charged if that happens. I mean, President Trump, we hear that they're looking into whether the, you know, the auto pen pardon is actually real. And, I mean, it has to be, right?

Yeah. Even if you believe that they were all auto pen, it's still, he's, President Biden has never denied it and said, yeah, I knew all about them. Right. But Cam Newton said, I hate to be the whistle. blower, but I call it how I see it. Look, if we're being honest, going back to 2020, there were multiple players, coaches, and executives

that fraudulently got their COVID shot. Yes, I said it. Too bad he didn't say it sooner. To spare some people, some real blowback, but at least he's saying it now. This year, America celebrates its 250th

birthday. Two and a half centuries, Americans have worked hard. We We've built a life. We've sometimes owned a home. That was truly ours. That's why it's so disturbing to learn that criminals don't have to break a window or kick a door in to come after that dream. All it takes is publicly available information of Ford's signature and some paperwork filed in the right place. Suddenly, you find yourself trying to prove that that home that was yours, you bought and paid for it, you worked hard to build equity in, is actually yours.

That's why I want you to know about home title lock. They provide 24-7 title monitoring. They'll send you an urgent alert if something suspicious appears on the title, and they have a 100% fraud restoration success rate. Wow. To celebrate America's 250, home title lock is offering 25% off for the two years of the home title fraud protection. That's $100 in savings and peace of mind, plus a free title history report. So go to home titlelock.com promo code Beck 25. Hometitlelock.com promo code Beck 25. This is day 60, by the way, of America.

Erica held hostage by Mitch McConnell. We still don't know what the deal is with him, frankly. Day 60. We don't. Day 60. I don't. 60 days. I don't know why I'm so angry with it about this thing, but I am.

Well, because it continues. I'm just really angry about it. It's unbelievable to me. We still have no proof of life for this guy. Not really. We really don't. We've not actually seen him. Nope.

A video of him. proof that it's a current video or photo of it. Someone would put up a flock camera outside of Mitch McConnell's house, but nope. Not even flock has a picture of him. No. It's amazing. It's amazing. He called Scott Jennings, though, yesterday, supposedly.

Wait what? They're getting closer. They're ignoring every signal that you're giving them to back off. And now you have to make a decision, except the choices available to you suddenly seem incredibly extreme. That space between doing nothing and using lethal force is exactly where the Berna launcher makes sense. Burna gives you a powerful, less lethal way to defend yourself and the people you care about from a distance. It looks and handles like a serious defensive tool because that's exactly what it is. launching projectiles capable of stopping a threat without requiring you to make an irreversible decision in a matter of seconds.

Because real-life danger doesn't arrive with a label telling you exactly how far it's going to go. Sometimes you need the ability to protect yourself immediately while still having an option between helplessness and lethal force. That's why having a burner nearby can fundamentally change the choices available to you when those choices matter most. visit burna.com, B-Y-R-N-A, b-rna-com, to find the right launcher for your family. That's berna.com. All right, so Mitch Matthews, two months now. We're two months into Mitch, yeah, Mitch McConnell.

I said Matthews again. I don't know why. Mitch Matthews is a wide receiver on the BYU football team from about 10 years ago. I don't know why that's in my head. Mitch McConnell is the U.S. Senator that we haven't seen for two months. That's who we're actually speaking of right now.

Chris Matthews was a CNN douche or was it MSNBC. I don't even remember that. It might have been MSNBC. I think it was MSNBC, yeah. But Mitch McConnell has been, I mean, it's been two months since he was taken out of his home unconscious. Day 60.

Day 60 and we have not had a face time. We haven't had a video call from his cell provider time. Nope. And none of it. Not even a courtesy, hey, I'm fine. Or I'm doing better or I'll be back after the Senate recess. Not a wave from a wheelchair leaving the hospital. Nothing.

Which you would think. I mean, that would be reasonable, right? Absolutely. Okay, I'm going home. So you're being reeled out. and on the way out you give a wave. Going home to rehab. Nope.

I mean, we've heard stories all the time of politicians that make sure that they were, they had to wear their suit. It was very difficult for them and put their suit on when they were going home to rehab from a hospital, but they wanted to look presentable for the crowd to wave to. Right. Leaving the hospital. Yes. We had none of that.

None of it. So it's very hard to believe that he is a cognizant human being. Yeah, it is. it is but he apparently placed a phone call to scott jennings at cnn yesterday and uh this is new they were gathered this is the replay of the phone call that he had this happened in the beginning right yeah he talked to him in the beginning and then nothing for quite a while weeks if you go back to the timeline right it was uh we we we needed proof of life and then we heard that they were going to pull the plug that there was no proof of life that he was he was they were going to pull the plug and then

it was like almost it may have been in bed the next day Scott Jennings yeah said he talked to him at the same time that we got a um some kind of picture that was with the first uh i picture with the with the checkered shirt and and the and the wife and said that he talked to him and then we got that and that was where he was still working with the people working with his all his people and working on the the demands of the job were still being handled. And he was, and

then Scott talked to him for 20 minutes. Right. That's the first time. But this is the next time. Okay. So this was yesterday, apparently, that he got the phone call and they're sitting around the CNN table discussing. Do you just call him up directly on his

phone or does you call an aide and the aid hands it to it? How does it work? He called me directly from his phone today. Now, you have to understand. I've known him since I was, you know, 16, 17 years old. So we've had a relationship for a long time. I worked on a lot of his campaigns over the year, so it's not unusual for us to chat. Scott, why isn't he calling into a credible news organization? I mean, why is he talking to you and not talking to? You're saying it's not credible to call me, Lou? I'm saying it's totally correct. No, Scott, what we're saying is, and look, I like Scott Jennings.

but this is irritating. What we're saying is, the guy is a U.S. Senator, why hasn't he called somebody to prove that he's okay? Or that he'll be back, or that he's rehabilitating. Something.

Something. Give us something for the American people, Scott. You are smart enough. Yeah, he knows. And wise enough. He knows. And I know their friends, I get it. To know the firestorm that has surrounded this man for 60 days now.

Yep. It's not a surprise that people, would ask, why is he just calling you? Right. Right. And she even brings it up. Okay, if not us, what about Fox News? Friendly. Somebody. But as you said, you're as friend. But I mean, I think there's what I'm hearing from Governor Bashir, and I'm just wondering

how you view that is, you know, why isn't he calling in to even one that he would consider friendly like Fox News? I mean, I guess that's the prevailing question that or put on an answer. Yeah, you know, but my view of him and. and frankly my belief about males of that generation is that they're intensely private, to be honest. He's always been a little private about his own personal health care. You know, he's a polio survivor. And one of the issues that he's had over time is weakness in his legs.

I think that's part of what's going on here and part of the conditioning that he's having to go through right now. But I think men of that generation frankly are just pretty private about it. And to be honest. Have you asked him to call into your radio show? I hope that he will call into my radio show. I've had him on before, and I'm hoping to have him on as we get closer to win the Senate. Does he know about all of the brouhaha around this? He's aware of the whole swirl?

He told me today, he said, it was like, I know this is unusual circumstances. I'm sitting here. The doctors tell me I don't have any life-threatening issues. It must seem rather strange. Yeah, it does. Yeah, I got the feeling he's somewhat aware of it and frankly somewhat frustrated by it. he's frustrated by it he's frustrated we're the ones who are frustrated by it scott this is a u.s. senator it's very difficult to believe that uh it is it's very difficult to believe that it is

and i have no reason to disbelieve it i like scott jennings yeah i mean i know doing his cnn thing he's doing his radio thing we've talked to him on the on our daily show pat graham At least we had him on before. I like him. But that's very hard to believe. I don't know. It is. Come on.

It is. It doesn't make a lot of sense. By now, there should be something, you know, some proof. Like, I don't care how private he is. Yes. I don't care about people in his generation wanting their privacy health-wise. That doesn't apply to. a U.S. Senator.

I'm sorry. Come on. And he's had polio and his weakness in his legs. We know. Okay? We've had that ram down our throats for years. We got it. Yep.

That's just, that's unbelievable. Remember, you know how he facetimes his home health nurse from time to time, Scott? Yeah, he should do that and just record it so that we know he's alive. He's supposed to be doing, he's supposed, this is state time. He's supposed to be back in Kentucky doing a state. business, but he's not. He's in Washington, D.C., at his home, apparently, in rehab.

Okay. Is he, though? There's no proof of that. There is no proof of that at all. Nobody saw him arrive at his house. We saw him leave. We did have, I mean, what small documentation we had, well, that was supposed to be him, was him unconscious of being wheeled

into an ambulance. And that's another thing, because he just said there that, Scott just said, that McConnell told him his doctor said he has no life-threatening issue. Right. Well, he was wheeled out of their unconscious after a heart attack, we're told. That seems somewhat life-threatening, at least in the beginning.

First of all, a little heart event. A little heart event. It doesn't break anybody. You could be wheeled out in the hospital anytime with that. Sounds like you might be speaking from experience there. A little heart of it. A little heart of it. Huh.

But were you, you weren't uncomfortable. When they took you out, right? When they wheeled me out of the house, I was not unconscious. No. Okay. The last thing I remember is the ambulance went out of our neighborhood a different way than I would have gone. And I was looking at the last thing I remember looking at the back window, the ambulance going, why are they going this way?

And the next thing I remember, I woke up in the operation. That's just like you to be complaining about the route they're taking to the hospital while you're having a heart attack. I wouldn't be going this way. Why are they going this way to the hospital? Stupid. What? Driver! Driver, you're going the wrong way.

Okay? And by the way, it'd be nice to have a waffle back here. Can you get me a waffle? Okay. Yeah, so we bow to your expertise on the heart of it. Yeah, thank you. And the ambulance taking you out, all of those things. But, okay, let's say it's not life-threatening now.

That's even better. Show us. Absolutely. Absolutely. Let's see. You know, do a quick video. Right. Ten seconds.

Mention a current event. As you're bouncing the rehab tennis ball against the wall. Yeah. Something. Something. This thing that is happening is completely. unacceptable. Just show us it's not AI. Show us you've got five fingers on your hand and not six or four. And we'll be satisfied. And because, you know, we've got a Republican majority in the Senate that is so narrow right now, so thin. It really matters whether or not Mitch Matthews is, Mitch McConnell is going to be able to do that and did it again. It matters whether Mitch McConnell is going to be able to go back to the Senate or not.

We don't even know. He hasn't even said. Oh, by the way, when the Senate is back from recess, I'll be there. We haven't even heard that yet. No, we have not. And he apparently didn't tell Scott because Jennings didn't relate any of that to us. So, I don't know. And again, 60 days. That's two months of uncertainty for the American people. We're being treated like this is Iran. Like this is Moitaba Khomeini. Yes. And we've got no right. to know how he's doing, what he looks like, where he is. You know, it's America, not Iran. Show us where you are, how you're doing, when you're coming back, if you're coming back. Maybe he's not. Maybe he's not coming back.

Maybe he's not. But we should know that too, so we can get that resolved and have a special election and get somebody elected to the position. And what are the odds, the way things are going now, if you believe and you believe that you know they did have we're going to pull the plug and they didn't pull the plug because attention was brought onto it that they were going to pull the plug so now that he's

supposed to be home do they pull the plug now so here in day 64 sometime this week do we hear you're saying if he's not recovered to the point where we're hearing yeah I don't I don't think we're there I don't know that Jennings would lie about that I'd like to think he wouldn't just make all of that up. I don't know. According to him, they discussed all kinds of issues.

And I don't know to what ends it would have to be for him to make up the whole thing. Yes, what is the point on that? But we haven't understood the point of not showing us what's going on the whole time. Yeah, the entire time. So I don't know what kind of game is being played here with us. Whatever it is, I don't like it. I haven't liked it the whole time. but they don't seem to care about that.

They don't seem to care what I like. Mitch says I saw a phone call come in. I was hoping it was Mitch McConnell on my phone, but it wasn't. Oh, it wasn't? Yeah, no. Doggone it. Yeah, I got one a few minutes ago. It was just spam. So I really thought it.

Was it Mitch? It could be Mitch. It was not. It was not. No. Was it Mitch Matthews, Chris Matthews or Mitch McConnell. It was none of the three. All right.

It's Pat and Jeffie for Glenn today. Triple-A-7-27-B-E-C-K. You know, we're speaking of politicians. There's one in Michigan who's got a Senate election coming up. And this would be unthinkable for Abdul Rahman-El-Said to become the senator from Michigan.

Are you talking about Dr? Abdul-Rubman. I am sorry, I apologize profusely. It is Dr. Abdul Rahman El-Said. Okay. Yeah, because he's a doctor. He's not a medical doctor. He's not a physician. He doesn't have a license.

He's never treated patients. But by golly, he wants to let you know he is a doctor. So. Okay. So. Don't disrespect the man. Apparently he also played football. Is that true?

I guess he played high school football. He played high school football. Supposedly, the captain. of his high school football team. That was questioned online and the internet went crazy. He was too. Here's pictures. Okay, we got it.

Like you couldn't fake that, could you? We got it. There's no way he played at the, I mean, he went to school at the University of Michigan. Oh, he didn't play for Michigan. The University of Michigan does not need someone as short as him on their team. What is not going to happen? Five, five, five or something. Honestly, I don't know how tall he is, but he's a short for an adult male.

Yeah. And they do everything they can in the videos to make it appear like he's not. To disguise that. Yeah. Yeah. Here he is talking about his football, though. Football is very much associated with a, you know, particularly masculine and oftentimes toxic, toxicly masculine culture. And so much of it was about you wanted to be able to get back up and play for your team.

And you really aren't allowed to show pain or vulnerability that's part of the sport. you're correct doc it's toxic though no he's not correct being a part of that is toxic yeah is it no no i can't take it with these people no so the guy played football in high school and now is saying it's toxic It's toxic. Oh, come on. I mean, Michigan, this is not your guy. No. Please vote for Mike Rogers.

This is not your guy. This Muslim socialist who thinks that football is toxic just because it's a masculine sport. You have to get up and not show pain for your team. Yeah, that's the game. Right. That's called being a man. That's why we love. like the sport.

You could play soccer and pretend like you're hurt if somebody comes within five feet of you. You could do that. That's the game. Yeah, that's the game. Yeah. In soccer, that is the game. You can fall down and writhe in pain when nobody was even around you. It kind of hurts to get the invisible kick to the shit.

It hurts a lot. Or at least you pretend it does. I like soccer. So I'm not why I'm making fun of it. because it's a stupid It's kind of agonizing the fake falls, though. Oh, very. And some of that has sort of entered into American football.

And basketball. And baseball. It's entered into all athletics. I don't like it. I don't like it. That's got to stop. Anybody who pretends to have an injury in football or even basketball, you need to be suspended.

Absolutely. They're giving a bad name to actual injuries. Yeah. That should not be allowed. You're 100%. you're 100% correct that needs to happen thank you we agree on scant few things but on that I mean that is agonizing it gives it gives real injuries a bad name yeah it does and it shouldn't right because people do get hurt and and actually hurt and we shouldn't we shouldn't think oh is he

faking we shouldn't be thinking that the fact that you even that even crosses your mind in american football now? It's wrong. I know. It's wrong. And it's all because of soccer. There's a couple of things that are really wrong right now. One is Mitch McConnell not showing himself to the American people. The other is faking injuries in football. They're equally bad and they both must stop. Amen. Let me ask you a question. I want you really think about it. When a decision gets made about your health care, who's in the room? Because it's not just you and your doctor. It's your insurance company. They have files on you, pages of it.

And here's the part it should bother you. It's not always accurate. Somebody from this audience found this out. He called Chapter, the only Medicare advisor that I trust, because his cost kept climbing and nobody would tell him why. His Chapter Advisor dug in and found the record that they were using on him, and it was flat out wrong. So she corrected it and went back to work finding him better options.

Nobody else is going to do that. That's the difference. That's Chapter. Their advisors aren't paid to push one plan over another. They're on your side of the table. They compare every Medicare plan nationwide. They have found people an average of $1,100 a year in health care savings, and the call is completely free.

It'll take you about 20 minutes. Talk to chapter today. Dial pound 250. Say the keyword, 250. That's pound 250. Keyword chapter. Pound 250, chapter. Torch members are not just listeners, they're torchbearers.

Uplifting the nation together. Join the community at glenbeck.com slash torch. Grant, Jeff Fisher for Glenn for Glenn this week. AAA 727 B-E-C-K. Let's chew the fat now. Jeff, you just take a look at some of the news, some of the things that are going on, and perhaps the lighter side of the things.

All right. Well, I mean, President Obama is hosting a new podcast focused on six books that have shaped his worldview. This is because every living organism has a podcast. The podcast, a great book with Barack Obama. We'll see the former president sitting down with six luminaries to discuss the seminal novels. The book selections are The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich. Oh, no, I read that wrong.

Oh, that's not right. The Fire Next Time by James Baldwin. Okay. Song of Solomon by Tony Morrison. All the Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy. Gilead by Mary Maryland Robinson and all the Kingsmen

by Robert Penn Robert Penn Warren and Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy by John Lickadee That's supposed to be really good Yeah Marks the sixth release from Audible

And the Obama's Higher Ground After the two signed that first Looked deal So it's just a way They're just honoring a contract What happened to that thing that they were doing with Netflix, that they signed for $100 million. They did like one thing that nobody watched.

And then that was it? It was at the whole... I don't think nobody watched. I don't think anybody watched. Nobody watched it. Okay. All right. I remember that distinctly.

No one watched that. I don't think that's true. But didn't they have like a long-ranging... It was some kind of deal. Yeah, with the higher ground. I'm not really sure. I mean, if you give... the Obama is 100 million you're you're not going to take any of it back no that's right I mean they

they that's they ended up uh you know that's what they did with what's your face uh harry and megan you know they had a deal with megan they never could get them to do anything yeah and so it was like okay well we're done have a nice day we love what you're doing do it over there it's cute but so they just cut their losses yeah we're happy yeah if we if we meet again somewhere or doing something we will then great yeah But until then. So is it just six episodes? Does he talk about one book for one episode and then goes on to the next?

Remember, he did that other special podcast with Bruce Springsteen for a while. And again, it's interesting that he's not doing it with the wife. Isn't it though? Isn't it? It's very interesting that he's not doing it with the wife. I mean, she has her stupid podcast with her brother, not him. I can't stay in my husband I don't know. Maybe that's why.

She couldn't do my husband. Yeah. For like 10 years. I couldn't stay in my husband. I'm going to stand my husband. We should have the picture of them. The picture they posted with this story was Barack and Michelle together at the library. Yeah, they're together.

This is one of the opening shots of the Barack Obama presidential library. Yeah. And he's holding up his library card. So that must be some sort of form of identification. And look at the way she's looking at him right there. It's almost like... It's almost like... It's almost like...

It's almost like that. But at least we have that in common with her. We found one element of agreement with Michelle Obama. I don't understand her husband either. And I still can't. And I don't think she can either, frankly. Audible's happy to be with them and make it happen. Oh, good.

Good. Very happy. All right. It's the series represents. That's everything they strive to be. Of course it does. Over there at Audible. Sure.

Good. Good for them. All right. Harry Potter fans have forced a new multi-million pound, multi-million dollar cable between the UK and Ireland to be relocated after complaining it would desecrate the grave of Dobby the fictional elf. Oh. You remember Dobby.

Dobby. Dobby? Is it Dobby? I think so, yeah. All right, whatever they call them. Yes, whatever they call them. stupid elf the character was laid to rest on freshwater west beach

in pedbrokeshire wales in the film harry potter and the deathly hollows fans of the wizard series come to leave stones reading here lies doby do they understand that it's not real no they don't they've got it's not real they bring stones

and they bring all kinds of just to honor him and they do that they don't care that it was not their land or any of it that is crazy I mean it was an ecological sensitive site

that it was there and so they don't care they still drop it off so the 430 million Euro Green Lake Interconnector which links the national grid to Ireland that was initially going to pass through that site of the grave

the project manager was like well the fans became aware of the plans after I was after I pointed it out on a podcast and uh then they ran it and we got hundreds of calls and he goes I mean hundreds of calls that said that you don't know uh he didn't even know who this who the character was the Dobby burial site you can't run through that that's exactly one of his colleagues said unbelievable no it's very very serious so they got new planners and they rerouted the that's incredible that's incredible I mean, I love Harry Potter, the whole, you know, the books, the movies, but please, it's pretend.

And they didn't really happen. And they had, they also had a, this Bronze Age place in the water there that has urns associated with human burial at this site. So they had to put this pipeline or this wire between the two. Unbelievable. Seriously. How dumb are we as a civilization? That's incredible. Okay.

I know. In our daily look at AI segment, today in New Orleans, Louisiana has become the first major U.S. city to publicly acknowledge the use of AI to help answer and triage certain 911 calls. It's a move that supporters say could reduce dispatcher overload and improve response times for life-threatening emergencies, but which critics. Warren could introduce new risks into one of the most important public safety systems. Other cities are already reported using AI in its context. New Orleans is unhappy about how it was being reported. A report claiming New Orleans is replacing human 911 operators with artificial intelligence is getting a lot of attention, but the agency overseeing emergency communications says

the story is highly inaccurate and misrepresents how the technology is being used. and it comes from the Shreveport Times, which published a story saying, New Orleans will use AI to answer 911 calls instead of humans. And they were mad about that. And the report focused on an AI tool called Carbine's AI emergency call triage. Love them. Which can help identify when multiple people are calling about the same incident.

In those cases, callers may be able to get updates or information about an emergency that's already been reported, while calls about a separate emergency are sent to a human dispatcher. The article does note that the tool would not replace human dispatchers, but would be used to help identify duplicate calls and connect callers with the right information or response.

So it does say what they said it didn't say. The agency says it does use AI, but only in a very limited situation, involving vehicle crashes. And it's not replacing human operators okay. We use the, and here's the thing. They've been using it for like two years now.

And it only comes into play when human call takers are busy. And someone calls 911 from within about 200 meters of a crash. This is New Orleans we're doing meters. I don't like it. It's creeping into our society here in America.

I just realized that. And I don't like it. This is from the Shreveport Times. Look, we don't like your city to begin with. Right. Oh my gosh. that's an understatement but don't use the metric system

this is America we said no to it 50 years ago yes no thank you it doesn't make any sense I don't know who's running that street report times join over there but make this happen yeah that has to stop

so they're already using it and they can provide information or updates of a caller's reporting on a different emergency it's doing exactly what the article said I don't know they're just mad that they're finally being called out on it. The article was right. It just failed to mention that it's been going on for a

couple of years already. And it has safeguards built in. So why don't you shut up? Everything is fine. The safeguards for AI are fine. Okay. Take care of everything. So yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. Nothing could go wrong. So get off me. Thank you. Spotify has added a feature that allows users to skip through some podcast ads, potentially disrupting the industry's ad economy. Oh, boy. That is not good, and people are not happy about it. Spotify is terrifying much of the podcast industry with their tiny little widget.

Last week, the audio streaming giant tweaked its streaming interface, adding a feature that allows some users to more effectively skip through parts of a podcast that no one wants, notably ads, as well as promotions and filler content, as long as they aren't sold directly by Spotify. Spotify cast the move as streamlining a feature that already exists. The 15 second skip button, which users in practice often use to bypass ads, but they can't work on Spotify ads.

Duh. Tommy Victor, a co-founder of Liberal Podcast Network, Crooked Media. I love them. Put it more bluntly. Very cool of Spotify to try to destroy the podcast industry. Several major other audio networks have reached out. They're unhappy with Spotify.

Spotify also gave itself some room to back off the changes, reiterating that the skip button is in an early testing phase as it continues soliciting feedback from podcast companies, publishers, users, and advertisers. I would say use it before you lose it because that is going away. That is not going to stick around much longer. And we did finally reach a billion dollars. uh tonight's drawing the jackpot drawing is one billion dollars what's the cash payout 433.1 so again it's not even half you don't even get half your money and then you get another 40% or more taken out in taxes uh that's wrong why win it yeah why win it what's the point it's

barely enough to get yourself lunch what's the point i mean once it's all done there's no point in it You want $4333.1 million, and then they take out of that. Yeah. And then they're going to take out of that. You're going to be left with like $250 million. And there's no. What are you doing with that? Hardly enough to even go to the bank with, you know?

It's really despicable. Can't have that. All right. Yeah, that's a look. That's it. That's it. That's what you got. Please subscribe to the tune of the fat with Jeff Fisher podcast.

Available wherever you get your podcast. You're doing on Spotify. You can skip through the ads. For now. And you can hear the Daily Fat Five during Pat Gray unleashed, daily 7 to 9 Eastern, right before this show, only on Blaze TV and Blaze Radio. Or wherever you get your podcast. 10-Gray Unleashed. Common sense is a fleeting quality in media.

But around here, it's standard practice. Hang tight. Glenn Beck returns next. Though the headlines might change, the threats facing Israel remain. While much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families can. continue living with the reality of terrorism and uncertainty and recovery. Communities remain on alert. Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives knowing the next siren could come without warning.

As Christians were called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day, providing life-saving aid, food for struggling families, emergency assistant, bomb shelters, and critical support for those impacted by war. Even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. Join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying for the people of Israel,

for protection and strength and for lasting peace. Together we can remind God's people that they are not alone. Stand with Israel in prayer today. Visit prayifcj.org. That's prayifcj.org. It's Pat and Jeffey for Glenn this week, AAA 727 B-E-C-K. Coming up in a few minutes,

we've got some things to share with you. There are some concerns. I don't know if you've noticed, but there are some concerns our country is facing. One of them is one of them is socialism. Yep. Another is the spread of Islam.

And I wouldn't be concerned about that if they didn't state their goal was... Which they do. Which they do, and they do it repeatedly, and they're serious about it. Yes, they are. They're actively taking over. That is their goal, and we've spelled it out. And eventually you're going to have to say, wow, maybe I should believe what they're telling me.

And maybe I should take some kind of action about it. I'm not sure what kind of action you're going to take, but it's an issue here. See, look, what's happened in Dearborn Michigan? Around the country. Patterson, New Jersey, Plano, Texas. I mean, it's everywhere. And they state that their goal, we got sued by some Muslim broadcasters. They put out a podcast.

And they all sat around a table, this imam and several of his Islamic friends. And they were spelling out how they are doing a Sharia community. And they laughed at us because we're so stupid. They're using our own laws and rules against us. That's almost a word for word quote. In fact, they pick out prominent members of the community. They like for them to be white because they believe that's stereotypically who's in charge, I guess. I don't know what they're saying there.

It would be a real surprise. if you found out that they were, I don't know, biggest. But they hired prominent local people who are well respected in the community to fight their battle for them at City Hall. Well, I think. And that's what they've done. And it's been really effective. We're going to show you something that happened in Chicago this week that is flabbergasting.

I mean, unreal, because it's everywhere. It's in Houston. they had some kind of, I think this was during Ramadan. I mean, they had 30,000 Muslims gather downtown Houston. Wait, downtown Houston, Texas? Okay, all right. Not that there's a problem with that. We all love to see our Muslim friends gathering together in a downtown area.

In any downtown area. And hear the call to prayer, because it's one of the most beautiful sounds any of us have ever heard, according to Barack Obama. But we're going to show you what happened in Chicago and get into what our governor, Greg Abbott, is doing about it here in the state. We'll see. That and lots more coming up.

Hello, America. You know we've been fighting every single day. We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you.

Together, we'll make a difference. and thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher for Glenn this week. Great to have you with us. Thanks for being here. We're going to find out if you have a problem with something that's going on in America.

A little Christian get together in Chicago, the person who, one of the people who was, I guess, responsible for putting it on. Yeah, but he was the one that started the gathering to come. Shared an interesting little video of what they found when they got to the place that they had agreed upon. meeting. We'll get into that. Is it an issue? I'll let you decide. But you know what? In one minute,

we'll get into that. There's a strange thing that happens when the cost of living goes up. You start looking for little places to save money while some of the biggest expenses in your life are sitting there untouched. You cancel a subscription, maybe you buy the cheaper groceries. Maybe you put off a purchase for another month. Meanwhile, your credit cards are still charged. you 20% interest. But if you own a home, American financing want you to look at the bigger number. The equity you've built up in your home may give you a way to consolidate that high interest credit card debt and dramatically reduce what you're obligated to pay every month. In fact, American financing borrowers save an average of $800 a month and there's no,

there's zero upfront fees. You may even be able to delay a to two mortgage payments. And timing matters because rates are currently in the fives with a really strong chance. They could move a little bit higher than that next month. Zero upfront fees and you might even delay up to two mortgage payments. So lock in your lower rate right now before September arrives.

One of the problems that we've got happening right now is this rise of socialism and the fact that our youth are so enamored with it. They just, they seem to love it because the perception is socialism takes care of the little guy. Right. Right.

Right. You're not some big. evil rich person that's stealing money from everybody else. No, these are the hardworking people who are just, just scraping by every month. And so they love that. And that's what they've been propagandized with their whole life in school. That's completely wrong.

But yes, they have had it ramped on their face. So that's one of the issues that we have going on. And as a result of these issues, we've got people like Francesco Wong, Hong, I'm sorry. I want to call her a Wong. All the time. Who was running for governor and she had a real shot at at least getting the Democrat nomination.

There's a fascinating story about the guy who beat her because he dropped out of the race a while ago. It dropped out. And then he started to consider, wait a minute, maybe I can win this thing. He started listening to her speak and what you know. Yeah. I'm probably smarter than that. She wants to eliminate police, prisons. She doesn't like Thanksgiving.

The Senate Thanksgiving Christmas. She hates all those holidays. She's a bit of a curmudgeon. Right. So anyway, this guy, Crowley, Crowley decided, you know what? I'm thinking about getting back in. And my wife and I prayed about it.

He said, my wife, during the prayer, she said, God, I don't like subtlety. So make it very obvious if you want us to get back in the race. I like that. And she actually asked to see a red bird. She was very specific about that. She wanted to see a red bird if they were supposed to get back into the race. But his wife was still saying at that point,

they're not doing it. They're not going to run again. Right. She didn't want to do it. Then she saw a red bird, a cardinal. flew into, I don't even know where it landed, but she saw the Red Bird. And he got back into the race. Being more specific with my prayers.

Right. I think that's the point of this whole story. That's the moral of the story, if you will. Be specific in your prayers. But they saw the Cardinal. So she told her husband, you should get back in. He did. And he won the Democrat nomination. I asked for a sign. I got it.

Amazing. Amazing. Meanwhile, in a state just east of there, there was a little gathering that was supposed to take place of some Christians. They were doing some rally. I guess they'd get together from time to time and march. I don't know. They're marching for Jesus, I guess. Yeah.

So they got the word out. and it's interesting what happened as a result of that. Here's the guy who'll tell you about it. I can make this up, guys. I am standing in the exact place where we are doing a Jesus march in one hour. And look who's here. A massive Muslims. A massive Muslim march where right now they're singing over Chicago.

Muhammad is the only one. May Allah be lifted up. They're declaring that all Jews and all Christians would be. removed from this city. I mean, this is, you know, you know I've been talking about this over the last week. And yet here we are right in the middle of it. Here we are. Our cities in our nation are being fought for in the spirit. I don't know if you need any more example than this right here. We didn't make this happen. We literally just walked up to the exact place where we're doing a Jesus March today in Chicago. There's a massive Muslim march

where they have been declaring over the city. And you know what? The church in America is asleep. I've been saying it over the last week. This is a perfect example. The church in America is asleep. We need to wake up. Listen, this is not a marketing thing.

I did not make this happen. We did not plan this. This is a God-ordained moment. for you guys around the world to see what's taking place. It's not just in Michigan. It's not just in New York. Right here in Chicago, a massive march is happening through the streets of the city where they're declaring that there is no God but Allah.

They're declaring Muhammad is the true prophet. And they're literally threatening with verses of the Quran over Christians, over Jews, over everybody that will not comply. This is America. This is America, guys. Are you awake? Do you understand? What is that stake here?

I mean, there's party music being played. Yeah. According to Barack Obama, that's one of the most beautiful sounds in the world. So I don't know what your problem is. Look, what is your problem? Is that to call the prayer or is that just a party song? I think that's just a party song. It's just a Muslim party song.

It's a party song. Beautiful, though. Beautiful. It's lovely. Okay, so he's concerned. Are you concerned? Triple-8-7-27-B-E-C-K, and if you are concerned, what do we do about it? Yeah.

That's the difficult issue. It sure is. What do you do about it? Because, again, they've made themselves pretty clear about what they want and what they intend to make happen. And that's for Islam to be in every home in America and throughout the world, for that matter. Right. You always think, well, if this is what you want, What you want is Sharia law and an Islamic state.

Why don't you live in one? Because there are multiple Islamic states to choose from. There are. But that's not their point. The point is everybody must be. And not by choice necessarily. Now you can choose to convert or you can be killed. So you got that choice.

You have that choice. How picky are you? You want a third choice or a four? You get two choices. You get two choices. So they're not taking away your choice. It's a matter with you. Right.

So anyway, we've been discussing this on Pac Ray Unleashed a bit over time. And one of our producers, Chris, Chris Cruz, decided to write to Governor Abbott about it. Since the show originates in Texas. Yes. And so he wrote, I'm a producer at Blaze Media. A lot of people who watch and listen to our show are growing increasingly concerned. about the number of mosques and Islamic centers, continuing to open across Texas. At last count, it was like 420 or something in Texas alone.

They keep asking the same question I am. What is the state actually doing about this? Why does it feel like there's no real effort to slow or stop the expansion of these places and the influence that often comes with them? I genuinely like to know where your administration stands and what concrete steps, if any, are being taken. People are watching this closely and they're looking for real answers, not silent. Not silence.

Appreciate your time and then he signs it. So he got a message back that they're compiling an answer. Oh. So I guess they're thinking about it and they're going to show what they have done, some of the steps that they've taken. Okay. And where they plan to go from here. And they're going to do that when?

Uh, by, let's see, uh, I think tomorrow. I think tomorrow they promised him an answer on that, uh, tomorrow. And politicians always show up on time. So bam, like clockworked. In fact, it might even be in this inbox early. But it's a tough one because what are we, what do you do? We all say, okay, we need to wake up. Okay.

Now that we're awake, what action do we take, if any? I mean, I, I know my plan. What is your plan? Well, Mr. Fisher. We begin with. That's zero immigration. Okay. We stop, we stop all immigration.

Stop all immigration. All of it. Nobody gets in. Legally or not? All, and not just, you're not talking about all immigration. Not just Islamic nations either. You're talking about all nations. You don't care if they're coming from Norway.

I don't want to, right? I don't want to be racist. Of course not. Or have any country be included that should not be included. I want all of them to stop. Okay. Zero. So you can't even come here from Canada.

Zero immigration. No immigrants. What about tourism? Can they come in visit? Well, think about that. Okay. All right. If you come to visit, we might have to put an ankle monitor on you.

If you're a tourist, we'll put an ankle monitor on you. You can, you know. Okay. At least we have to know where you're at. We'll work it on that plan. Yeah. All right. And then we need to reclassify Islam as a,

political entity, not a religion. Wow. That will never happen, by the way. It will never happen. But that needs to happen. And because Islam, they've already stated, their goal is to take over this country. Yeah. Period.

That's, and we use their laws, their nice laws against them, and we're going to just take it over. And they do. And we see it in effect all the time. Yeah. Every day. And they think it's so cute. Another example of it in Chicago where they planned a Christian march and all these Muslims show up to, I guess, get in the face of the Christians who were going to show up. Or scare them away.

Yeah, something. I mean, we have the Michigan Attorney General, the Democrat Attorney General, Dana Nessos. She says she's not even going to go to the Democratic Convention in Michigan this year. Yeah, she's Jewish, right? Yeah, because she doesn't feel safe. Yeah, cut 11. Oh, yeah, okay. Yeah.

I still will say I was very naive, and I just think ever that this could happen in modern-day, the United States of America. And it is. And I'm going to make this statement. I'm not going to be attending the nominating convention for the Michigan Democratic Party in August. And that is because I don't feel safe going.

I feel like my presence is not welcome. I don't want to get chased around. I don't want to get harassed. I don't want to get yelled and screamed at. I don't want to get food off the stage irrespective of what I'm saying. And I believe that if I go,

that is what will happen. It's been happening to me. Wow. So she's afraid to go to the Democrat convention in Michigan. Her own party. Her own people. That's interesting.

Because she's Jewish. Jewish and she'll get harassed or, you know, there'll be some kind of violent act against her. Whatever. She doesn't want to do it. Right. That's it. That's, that's unacceptable. Agreed. It's unacceptable. In the United States of America, absolutely unacceptable. So we'd love to know your thoughts at AAA 727 B-E-C-K. More coming up in one minute. When it comes to supplements, two things matter most. A, that it works and that you can trust it. Rather than just tell you about Relief Factor, let our audience do that. We hear from people every single day whose lives have changed, and I want you to hear a few of their stories.

Doug took Relief Factor for nearly a year before convincing his wife, a special needs teacher, to try it. She had been using assistance just to move through the long hallways at school. Now she's back on her feet every day and never had to leave the job that she loves. I remember when buttoning my shirt was almost impossible, but Relief Factor changed how I'm able to do it and the simple things again. and they make it really easy for you to find out if you can be the next person that's telling us about Relief Factor and how it gave you your life back.

Three weeks, $17.76, try it. Relieffactor.com, 804 relief. You'll connect with their friendly local team and they'll do everything they can to help. We hope you soon will be sharing your story with us as well. Relieffactor.com. It's Pat and Jeffey for Glenn this week, AAA 727 B-E-C-K.

So let's say we're awake as a nation and we understand that we're being threatened. Okay. And there's a takeover in process, at least according to some of the Muslims that we hear from on a pretty regular basis. Yeah. Like every day. I mean, they follow the same game plan wherever they go. And what peaceful Muslims will tell you is that that's not Islam in general. That's not all of us. That's a small fraction.

But even a small fraction of one and a half billion people are way. whatever the Islamic population is right now. Even, you know, 10% of that is 150 million. Yeah. One percent of that is 15 million. I mean, so there are some problems. There's some issues. What do we do about it?

Thomas in North Carolina. Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Jeff. Good morning. Yeah, I've been hearing all this stuff about just, you know, the marches and everything else. and North Carolina. I found out yesterday, but they're literally building a 150-foot statue

of the Hindu god Merrigan in Chatham County, North Carolina. Wow. 150-foot statue? Yes. Supposedly 190 feet with its pedestal. Yeah, that's the Hindu god, right? Yeah.

That's the Indians, yes. Wow. Yeah, that's separate. I mean, well, it's kind of walking the same road. that's separate from what we were discussing. But yeah, that does seem to be an issue. Appreciate it. Thanks, Thomas. That's interesting.

Yeah. I mean, apparently anybody who opposed it, tough. Yeah, really tough. You've been steamrolled. We're going to do it anyway. And we already know, and we already know here in the state of Texas that Governor Abbott said that he's all for it. I mean, he was all, I've seen. The statues?

all for the Indians in Texas, yeah Oh interesting. Yeah. Because I mean there's plenty of places in Texas that seem to have an overwhelming amount of Indian population.

I've not noticed. Not the Native American Indians. You're just going to throw that out there out of the blue like that? We do have a We have a number of immigrants in the state. I'm sure every state does. You know, not necessarily from India, but everybody has people who have come here from other places.

And in most cases, it's really good. As long as they... Assimilate. Yes. And what they... To assimilate into the culture of the United States. But that's too much to ask now. It is.

And you know, earlier you mentioned about they ask white people. And what about... You were saying, I'm not sure why that is. Well, I was listening to... to forget who was talking about it but they made a great point in that the middle america white females and males for that extent have been beaten down to feel bad about being white yeah so when the islamic people come to them they want to help because they feel bad about being being white.

Yeah. And while the African-American community doesn't necessarily feel that way. Right. Right. So they're a little more vocal about it, a little more outspoken about it. Yeah. Yeah. Meanwhile, uh, whitey, all of us Casper's kind of sit in the background and think,

uh, okay. We want to help. I don't want to be hateful. I don't want to be a racist. Yeah. I don't want to be an Islamophope. I mean, that has been an effective tool. It has.

They've used to get us. A very effective tool. For a long time. But it's been even more prevalent lately. And so you just get beaten down with that stuff. And none of us want to be called a racist or a bigot or an Islamophobic. And I don't, the vast majority of us aren't. But then we wind up saying nothing and doing nothing.

And then you regret the results of that. Right. And, you know, that's. And that's. the game plan that a lot of the Islamic community has used against us. Yeah, and in that podcast that we were referencing before, that they sued us over playing,

we just wanted to share their message with everybody. I don't know why they were upset about it. You said it. That's what they kind of talk about, is using our own culture against us, using our own laws and rules. Isn't that great? now we're doing that and then we've got our new our whole new community set up here you don't

have to be of course obviously you don't have to be uh muslim to live in our community but but why would you're going to be paying the tax that goes to the mosque and so a lot of christians don't want to support that for some reason and they wind up with what they want yeah it's it's a tough it is a tough issue to tackle you what uh the governor abbots people are completely Highland. Yeah, me too. Me too. We'll let you know when we find out. Cozy Earth's mission is to transform the time that matters most. Your sleep into the most comfortable part of your day.

Marco and his wife to discuss quite a few things. No, he's not running for president. No. He's not running for president.

He always has his wife with him on interviews. He sits down for an interview with the wife. Come on. So this is completely ordinary. This happened. He was in town. Of course he's going to run for president. Well, I'm not sure that's a given because of Jady Vance.

I don't know if the two of them got a working deal or something. You run this time. I'll run next time. I don't know how that's going to work. I don't know how that's going to work. I mean, Marco wanted to, you know, time before, right, when he was little Marco. They'd make a really strong team, though.

Oh, my gosh. One of them the head of the ticket, the other of the vice president? Who wants to be? Wow. Does J.D. want to be vice president again? No, I'm guessing neither of them want to. But it's especially true probably for J.D. He's not going to be vice president for somebody else.

That would be silly. And I think that would be counterproductive to his political career. Right. The next step is the presidency, right? Or go back to Ohio and just be done. Right. Right. Just go on the speaking tour and make $400,000 an hour.

Just give it a speech. The wife could just hang out for a while. Yeah. Yeah. But Marco had some interesting things to say. He was asked about a conspiracy theory that he actually believes. What's a conspiracy theory that you believe in? I'm asking both of you.

A conspiracy theory that I believe in. Well, okay, it's not a conspiracy theory. Okay. Don't answer it. But I have long been on this UAP thing. And now, you know, I've sort of surrendered that portfolio to someone else who you know well. Who's very much in charge of the UAP issue. Just be, again, it's not, what I say is, I don't know who it is, I don't know what it is,

but there are things flying over a military installation and they're not ours, and we should look into this, be serious about it. And I did that for a long time in the Senate. And it had two benefits. The first is that obviously it's a legitimate topic. And the second is whatever the news of the day was, it was controversial. And a reporter comes up to you, and you say to them, look, I don't have time for these questions about politics. Do you realize there's things flying over airspace?

You know, we don't know what they are. And the reporter's like, oh, what do you know? Tell me more. So it was extraordinarily effective as a diversionary tactic in addition to. Now that said, it's also a very legitimate topic that we should be covering. So I don't call it a conspiracy. I don't know the answer to any of it. just asking the questions about, you know, we should know what's flying over our airspace. But I don't think that's a conspiracy theory as much as it is.

It can be in some sense because people do believe we're covering something up. And I assure you, like, in this administration, if we knew, like, the president would be all over. Like, there would be, you know, prime time address. He would, you know, he'd be showing the pictures and the videos. But, you know, Stephen's on that case now. And I think he's doing a great job. Is that true that he doesn't know exactly what they are? It's hard to believe.

in the highest levels of our government, somebody's got to know. It just doesn't make sense to me that none of them. The president doesn't know. The secretary of state doesn't know. The vice president. Nobody knows. Somebody must know.

If we knew, we'd tell you. Sure. Oh, of course. We tell you. That goes without saying that you'd be totally transparent with the American people. If I knew. Yes, but obviously you don't. I don't know that I believe any of that.

I don't. know either. And we didn't get to hear what the wife's answer was. No. Because she asked both of them. Maybe, you know, Marco told her to pipe down. But I don't think so. I don't think so either. I don't think so. Based on this next question that she helps Marco with. Did RFK's diet diet of red meat and fermented vegetables? This is a crazy diet. This is a diet that consists of eating sourcrow and meat. You understand, like this is not a sustainable thing. You can't just walk into a, you know, He sustains it because he doesn't.

Can you imagine? He has to travel with coolers of sourcrack. I'm not going to travel the world with a cooler full of sourcrack. It's ridiculous. I can't do it. It's not sustainable. Are you maha? I'm in favor of maha.

Like, I think people should be healthy. No, he is not. But I think ultimately at the end. What's he eat? Pop-Tarts. No, I don't eat pop-tarts every day. Okay, you eat sweets. The Pop-Tart is one of the great American innovations in history of the world.

If you think about it comes in this beautiful foil package. He eats all the things you should not be eating. Every single thing. Oh. That's why you don't have your wife with you on these interviews. Yeah, yeah. Ahead of time or just not included her in the room. Because that's what's going to happen.

No, he doesn't eat everything. He eats Pop-Darts. He eats great. And that way he follows my heart. That's the time that he eats. Okay. So great. That's why I travel the world without you.

Exactly right. Exactly. Because that's what the wife's going to do for you. How about I travel with a cooler, a sourcrow around the world? You just make sure that I have freshly made sourcrow ready to go from the house, okay? Oh, that stuff is so nasty. Oh, it is. I was forced to smell that being baked and cooked them when I was a little kid.

Oh, it was terrible. No, thank you. Just terrible. But that's always fun to have the wife jump in like that and change your answer. modify your answer. Of course he's not maha. No, he's not ma'er. He's anything.

That's so good. Unbelievable. But he's definitely running. He's going to for something. Come on now. I don't remember, to be honest, I don't remember Marco ever having his wife with him. Yeah, I've never seen it before.

I haven't seen her that often, but I've never seen them together like that. Yeah, I don't remember that. I've ever seen that. which leads you to believe he's going to run for president. Yeah. Because you start breaking out the family and showing what a family man you are. Right?

So she was, you know, they had the kids in which she stayed home and raised him and did her womanly thing, which is what she was supposed to do. And, uh, well, Marco was out there, no problem. Okay. Where do you, uh, where do you address the, uh, comments on that last statement by you? Two in the Fat Outblazemedia.com. Yes. You email me there.

I washed my hands completely of what. everything he's said, not just today, but at any time ever. Anytime ever? Anytime ever. Yeah. I thought we agreed on something earlier. No, it was one thing. You took it back?

Yeah, I take it back. But honestly, I don't remember him ever being with her. No, I don't think I've ever seen it. But yes, again, I think it's a pretty good indicator of what's to come. And that's going to be really interesting. once 20, 28 rolls around to see who's jumped into this race and who hasn't. Sure is. We've got a really strong bench that the Democrats do not have.

There's nobody who's really prominent in the Democrat Party. We've talked about this a little bit before. I think it's going to be somebody out of the blue like a John Ossoff for the Democrats. And you start to see him becoming much more prevalent. But the Republicans have a really. really strong bench. It's going to be tough to decide which one should be the head of the ticket. Look, that could be the problem in and of itself. Yeah. So, I mean, just off the top of the head, J.D., Marco, and Ron DeSantis. There's your top three right there.

Right. And who else? None of, you don't need anybody else. No, you don't, but none of those guys are going to want to be a number two. No, that's true. Yeah. I mean, they're all in line to step in to be number one if they step in. in line. Right? So who is the, who are the who are the two that say, okay, I'll wait. Okay, you go ahead. You run.

I'll be over here. Well, JD's only what? 43, 42, 43? I don't know. It's really young. So if anybody's going to wait their turn, you'd probably want it to be J.D. Vance. And he's not going to want to do that. And I don't think he wants to do that.

I mean, if there's ever a time, now is it for him. I mean, I guess you make the case that he could wait, but I don't see that for, you know, I don't see that practically for anyone, really. No, because he's perfectly positioned to run for president, because the vice president always runs for president. And so he'd be the next in line.

So I don't know. It'll be interesting to see over time. And does Marco say, no, you know what? Just make sure that I'm a state department. I mean, he wants a galavan all over the world for the next four to eight years. I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think so. I mean, that's a tough job.

Yeah. And he's done, what, a thousand jobs? Right. He's also the leader of Venezuela. Right. Yeah, he's got a lot of his plays. He's got all kinds of jobs. Some real and some not, but he's done them.

Speaking of number two, Kamala Harris has been out speaking, she's been out on the speaking tour as well. And we just go away. For some reason, for some reason, She just did this video about the Save America Act. And I just saw lengths that the Democrats go to to lie about the Save Act. It's been fun. I mean, it's been fun.

It's been agonizing to watch, actually. Yeah. Because they just continue to lie. And people believe it. Here's what she said this week. Hey, everybody. So they're trying to mess with your ability to vote just to break it all down. You've got the Supreme Court.

they just sealed the deal with this case that just came up recently, the Calais decision, which basically took the power out of the Voting Rights Act, which was designed to protect your right to vote. That's untrue. Okay. Surprisingly. Untrue? Wait, what? Kamala Harris said something that's not true. You know what the Calais Act was? It was the Supreme Court ruled that Louisiana didn't have to establish a black majority district in Louisiana.

and District 2, it didn't have to be majority black. That's what you're talking about. They can all still vote in that district. We just don't have to make the minorities white people in that area. They didn't have to create a specifically black district. But that did lead to a firestorm of states rearranging their districts. Yes, I'm not sure that's what led to it, but that was part of that whole fight. But that is so disingenuous and so ridiculous.

And, of course, then you got to talk about the Save Act. So you got the Supreme Court doing its thing. Yeah. Then this president is trying to push this Save Act, which basically would require that for people to register to vote, you're going to have to have proof. No. Wait. I have to prove who I am that I'm an American citizen? What kind of outrage is this?

What is this? If they have identification to prove that you are who you are and that you're a citizen? Is this Genghis Khan's Mongolia? Where am I right now? Did I take a left turn and wind up in communist China? How dare you ask me to show who I am? Of who you are through a passport which a lot of Americans don't have or a birth certificate. Same point.

Obstacles to make it difficult for you to read. You notice how they avoid driver's licenses because they can't go there. I mean, when you go and get your driver's license in order to have that checkmark on it like Texas does, and we've had that for 10 or 15 years. The star or something. Yeah, the star. Uh-huh. That shows that it's official and it's federal and whatever.

That's all you have to get is a driver's license that's official like that. In order to get that, and we almost everybody has one now, you do have to predict. produce a birth certificate or, you know, some form of proof that you are who you say you are. Now, should voting be absolutely effortless? I don't think so. I mean, if you have to go through, you know, you've got to jump through some hoop to get there. So what? You're voting.

And the states who, the number of the states who have said that we've got, you know, we have ID. Well, you really not, you don't. you can there's ways around it yes like virginia yes who was it that was uh being interviewed about that i don't remember but he he cited virginia as an example and was told right there no you really don't have to that's not really true no but most states already have if you got a driver's license it has a star on it you can vote it's just not that difficult it really isn't i mean i When I changed my license from Florida to Texas, I went to the, I had to go, I did have to go to the D. Oh, don't tell me you had to leave the house.

You had to leave the house? I did have to go to the DMV? How did you get? Did you walk uphill? No. In both directions? In the driving snow? First of all, no.

Hurricane velocity wins. It must have been, what, 4850 below zero when you went? What kind of dasper? state would put you through that. Texas. You did have to leave the house. I did have to leave the house and I went to the DMV. That's inconvenient.

You should never be inconvenient. I brought insurance papers and I did bring a copy of my birth certificate, which I did need because I was still had an end date license from another state. Texas, that was fine. So you're one of like four people in the country who has a copy of a birth certificate? Well. Is that what you're asking us to believe? now? Wow, that's hard to believe.
