Starting point is 00:01:13 our cadaver in chief Joe Robinette Biden some people are noticing this is incredible that he has cognitively declined a bit no no no it pisses me off when people say that because it's so obviously not true
Starting point is 00:01:32 and lots of Democrats were able to step up after the fact and say no no that didn't what are you talking about the man's as sharp as a tack yeah That was a quote, I believe, from the article. I believe. I believe it is.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Many of them, in fact, we have a montage. He's sharp as a tag. He's sharp as attack. He's sharp as attack. Okay. We'll get to that and lots more in one minute. I don't need to tell you how important a good night's sleep is. Maybe Joe should get a few more.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Just throwing that out there. Although he does go to bed at 5 p.m. and get up around 11 a.m. So I don't know if he can get more sleep. But if you're like most people, sometimes you just can't fall asleep or maybe you can't stay asleep. and you frequently wake up in the middle of the night.

So some mainstream media outlets are noticing some. some, I don't know, the disintegration of Joe Biden. Yeah, I was, I don't know, it was a few months ago, a couple months ago, Pat,
Starting point is 00:03:25 where they had the result of that special counsel that was looking into the documents with Joe Biden. Yeah. And they released a report that said, we're not going to charge the guy. Why? Because he didn't commit crimes? No. No. We're not going to charge him because he is an elderly man with a poor. memory and if he got in front of a jury everyone would say come on you can't put this guy in jail he's so out of touch he's so lost he doesn't remember anything just let the guy be now that's a shocking thing to think about when you think that this guy's the president in the
Starting point is 00:04:02 united states right yeah that's a real yes a real real real problem you called him cadaver in chief and uh i have just come off of watching the jinx season two You familiar with this? I'm not. The Jinks is a somewhat famous true crime documentary. They aired on HBO in 2015 about Robert Durst. Remember the... Oh, I think I might have even seen that.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Yeah, it's incredibly incredible. I mean, I think it's the peak of the genre. Like, the Jinks Season 1 is one of the most stunning six-episode series you'll ever watch in your entire life, including the ending, which even nine years later, I won't ruin for you. It's that, it's that crazy of an ending. But they just released a season two of the jinx. And, you know, they're going through him in the trial and everything else about these crimes he committed, blatantly committed. And so going through that, he, very famously in this, there's a note for one of the murders where he just writes,
Starting point is 00:05:15 the word cadaver. And as you said, Cadaver and Chief, it reminds me of this. Dirst is a very old man, very, very frail in season two in particular. He's behind bars. He's struggling to get through sentences.
Starting point is 00:05:31 He can barely speak. And over and over again, watching this, I just was reminded of the president of the United States. Yeah. Yes. That is a shocking thing to say. This man was near death.
Starting point is 00:05:45 death on camera. And I'm watching the President of the United States and I'm thinking, I don't know, kind of seems like the same thing we watch every day in the press conference. It's incredible. Do you have the Wall Street Journal article? I do. And this is not, it's amazing. It's not the headline you want. When you're running for president. No, it sure isn't. This is a free tip to anyone thinking about running for office. You know, and people will say, well, it's a Wall Street Journal. It's a conservative publication. You know, opinion-wise, they kind of are. I mean, some. somewhat. They're more like old school
Starting point is 00:06:17 Republican, I would say. Yeah. But not their news coverage. No. In fact, their news coverage at times has been shown to be more liberal than the New York Times. Right. So that's not a that's a BS excuse. But here's the headline. Behind closed doors,
Starting point is 00:06:33 Biden shows signs of slipping. No way. What? That was my first reaction. I know. You still the thing we all know that is happening is happening? But thank you. For somebody noticing in the mainstream media, I appreciate it. Thank you. Nice.
Starting point is 00:06:49 Participants in meetings said the 81-year-old president performed poorly at times. The White House said that Biden is sharp and his critics are playing partisan politics. Now, they do actually use the phrase in here sharp as attack, Pat. I believe, let's see who actually said it. I know it's in here somewhere. Oh, here it is. A Trump. No, actually, it was.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I knew I heard the phrase in here. basically the way the article is formatted, they give you a bunch of examples of Biden slipping up in meetings, looking like he's not engaged, and we can go into those. And then it's followed by 65 straight paragraphs of
Starting point is 00:07:28 statements from the White House saying they, no, we swear that's not true. And you know who is dude slipping is Donald Trump? So it was actually a Trump spokeswoman who said Trump is sharp as attack. So they're both sharp as tax, guys. That we know. These are mixed.
Starting point is 00:07:44 It's interesting because there are statements from people like Kevin McCarthy, former Speaker of the House, a Republican, who says he was in a meeting with him and like, wow, something. It didn't seem like he was really there. He says, I used to meet with him when he was vice president. I would go to his house. He is not the same person. There's stuff like that in there. That's for sure. Which maybe you could apply to, okay, it's a Republican.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Even though McCarthy's no longer in office, you might say, well, he still doesn't like Biden. And, you know, it's a partisan politics. And some of these maybe you can chalk up to that. However, there are even Democrats in here talking about this and noticing it. And it's not a surprise that they would notice it because it's impossible to not notice. But the Wall Street Journal had interviews with 45 people for the story, 45. Some of them said he's, you know, sharp as attack, all basically in the administration. but some of the Democrats who came out and said this got got some phone calls
Starting point is 00:08:46 I'll bet they did when they knew about this I'll bet they did the White House when they knew about this I'll bet they did the White House kept close tabs on some of the Wall Street Journal's interviews with Democratic lawmakers after the offices of several Democrats shared with the White House either a recording of an interview or details about what was asked some of those lawmakers spoke to the journal a second time and once again emphasized Biden's strengths this is Gregory Meeks he's a representative New York Democratic He says, they just, you know, said that I should give you a call back, said Meeks referring to the White House. So Meeks obviously is honest and says, yeah, you know, maybe he's not the top of his game. And then has to call back and say, I swear everything I said before, you shouldn't listen to that. You should think instead about the thing I'm about to say, which is he's sharp as attack. multiple Democrats, along with a lot of Republicans, said they believe, and this is including a February 27th meeting with Biden and the Speaker of the House now, Johnson, who talked about a policy, an energy policy that he was, they were working through that had passed. Johnson was saying, hey, you're going to hurt my state with this energy policy.
Starting point is 00:10:07 and Biden said, well, don't worry about it's just a study. Now, it was not just a study. It was a policy that was already passed. It was already in place. Yep. And it was all he didn't even remember. It was his policy. His policy.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Not a study. Not a study. There was a study inside the policy, but it was an actual in effect policy. Then you had a meeting about the debt ceiling where McCarthy talked about how he rambled, how he always had note cards. He couldn't negotiate the policy. policy. He was asking people around him for help constantly. That is not good. Again, you know, maybe you might say, well, for the election, considering Donald Trump doesn't seem to have a lot of
Starting point is 00:10:52 these problems. You know, he's made some mistakes here and there. But generally speaking, that's not what is being reported from behind the scenes about Trump. There's a world of difference. World of difference. Between the two and their cognitive abilities. A world of difference. And everyone notices that, right? Yeah, I think so. You know, I mean, you know, it's just obvious. Another meeting January 17th to 20204 about Ukraine. Biden started making just talking from notes.
Starting point is 00:11:21 He would make broad points about giving money to Ukraine. This struck several participants as odd, given that the lawmakers present already generally agreed that more funds were needed. So he's talking to a pro-Ukraine funding crowd arguing with them about how they have to give money to Ukraine. Already are on board. They were all there because they were on board with giving money to Ukraine. But he couldn't keep it straight. Biden deferred so frequently to other lawmakers that much of the conversation didn't include him. This is according to people who were at the meeting.
Starting point is 00:11:55 When questions came directly to him, he would turn to staffers. One person who attended said, you couldn't be there and not feel uncomfortable. I'll just say that. Now, it is loaded, I will say, with tons and tons. of Democratic officials. Oh, well, we never noticed that. We were in that meeting and everything we saw. He was perfect.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Of course, that's what they're going to say. Obviously, they're in the middle of this campaign. But what's interesting about this is you've got Democrats, you've got some people inside the administration, unnamed, pointing to the idea that this is real. And what does that mean, Pat? Because this story coming out not only tells the truth about who Joe Biden is, but it's more than that, right?
Starting point is 00:12:38 Like it's people who want this story to be told. Yeah, because it's people who are patriots and realize this guy can't be trusted with the leadership of this nation for the next four years. It's impossible for him to do this in a second term. We all know that. I mean, can you imagine this guy in 2025, 2025, 26? Look at the way he is now and then how much he's declined since he was elected in 2020. and then project that over the next four years. I mean, it's inconceivable.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Before he is inaugurated for a second term, he will be 82 years old. Before he leaves office in theory, if he wins a second term, he will be 86. Yep. 86 years old. And he's already in terrible shape. And we can all see it.
Starting point is 00:13:37 It's happened right before our eyes over the last, you know, four to six years. And he's, yeah, he's incapable of doing a second term. That's for sure. It's true because, I mean, look, let's not overstate Joe Biden's mental acuity. He's never been sharp. No. He's never been sharp as attack. I mean, he's a guy.
Starting point is 00:13:55 I mean, go back to his, when he was running for president. What was the interview he did, Pat, where he was saying that, you know, he saw Roosevelt on television. Oh, yeah. You remember that? And it was like, well, the television hadn't been invented yet. I don't remember the details exactly. I think it was a Roosevelt reference. And he talked about, he mentioned a place in Delaware that had been closed for
Starting point is 00:14:15 30 years or something. Yeah. He's like, I remember going to Katie. I mean, this was very, very common for him to have these moments. And it wasn't just gaffs. He would have gaffes. He would say that Barack Obama was the first, you know, sort of clean, clean, good looking.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Good looking. African American. That's a storybook, man. He would say you can't go into a 7-Eleven without a slight Indian accent. Right. I mean, he would say those things and have those moments, but he at least seemed to have some grasp on what was going on around him, right? Even though he kind of would have these gaffs. He was never the smartest guy in the world. He was never near the top of the heap when it came to intellectual ability, but he was able to at least function. And that, even as vice president at some level, you'd see that, he would certainly mess up. He would, you know, blurt out policies that weren't in effect yet.
Starting point is 00:15:16 He would, he hurt at times, you know, the Obama presidency was some of the stuff that he did. But again, he kind of were like, all right, I mean, he's just, you know, as Joe being Joe, that's no longer the case. I mean, let's be honest about it. Everybody knows this. Everybody knows it. Yeah. And you've got that from the Wall Street Journal as proof. when it's starting to seep into mainstream coverage like that. Plus, Time magazine discusses an interview they did with him. And he walked him through the White House and the West Wing,
Starting point is 00:15:48 and they talk about how compromised he is. We'll get into that in one minute. We have to declare a lot of things when you're traveling on a plane, you know, guns, ammunition, knives, swords. Try not to take swords on planes. I just, I've found that that delays them. often if you just got a big samurai sword in your back. This is my own, my own note.
Starting point is 00:16:09 This is something I've noticed traveling. Which you don't have to declare something that can save your life or someone that you love. The Burn a Launcher.

Starting point is 00:17:14 I mean, if you don't believe us that it's not prudent to vote for Joe Biden in November, listen to him. Turn this primary from a campaign that's about negative attacks into one about what we're for because we cannot get reelect. We cannot win this reelection. Right. Excuse me. We can only reelect Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Well, there you go. We can only reelect Donald Trump. Wow. He's right. right about that. Wow. I was this a surprising statement from the opposition. Powerful endorsement though from Joe Biden himself
Starting point is 00:17:45 to Donald Trump. What was he trying to get to there? I can't even tell. And turn. Turn this primary from a campaign that's about negative attacks into one about what we're for. Because we cannot get reelect we cannot win this re-election. Excuse me, we can only
Starting point is 00:18:01 re-elect Donald Trump. What? I don't know what he's What was that? I hadn't heard that. What was he trying to do? I'm not sure, but I think he was trying to say the only way that America can turn is to him. Give it to me one more time.
Starting point is 00:18:25 Turn, turn this primary from a campaign. It's about negative attacks into one about what we're for because we cannot get reelect. We cannot win this reelection. Excuse me, we can only reelect Donald Trump. I can't I can't decipher Your guess is as good as mine Maybe, okay
Starting point is 00:18:45 Here's, let me just Can I attempt to Spitball it To translate this I think maybe what he was trying to say What the speech said Was we cannot Reelect Donald Trump
Starting point is 00:18:58 Yes And then he got halfway through that And realized wait a minute I'm president Not Donald Trump Yes So wait I want to be reelected So then he thought it was a re-election reference about himself in the middle of the sentence.
Starting point is 00:19:12 So then he tried to reframe it as we cannot re-elect. And he's like, wait, I'm the person going for re-election. So it was re-elect me. And then he said, wait a bit. I just said, I can't re-elect it. So then we said we have to re-elect it. And then the next line was actually Trump the whole time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:28 So he just corrected himself three or four times. And then he realized we have to. He was trying to say, I have to re-elect me. But actually Trump was the next word. and he just like, Ron Burgundyed it, just read it right off the prompter. Yeah. He got himself too deeply enmeshed in it.
Starting point is 00:19:45 Yeah. And then there was really no way out. Yeah. And like, so. That is a great example of what the problem is. Well, it is. Right. It is.
Starting point is 00:19:56 And not only did the Wall Street Journal point that out, Time just kind of pointed that out. And just had an argument with his own speech. Right. That was a written speech. He had an argument with it on stage. All right, so time has what? Listen to this from Time magazine.
Starting point is 00:20:11 They go to the White House and Biden is showing them around and telling them stories as he goes. And Time writes, as he walked time through the West Wing and sat for a 35-minute interview on May 28, the president with his stiff gait, muffled voice and fitful syntax cut a striking contrast with the intense, loquacious, figure who served as senator and vice president. Wow. From Time magazine, you're going to acknowledge and print that? Wow, that's surprising. It must be bad. Yeah, it must be bad.
Starting point is 00:20:48 That echoes another thing in the Wall Street Journal story where they said, I think it was in the Ukraine meeting where he was speaking so softly, people in the room could hear him. They're having an important meeting about the World War III thing. He's trying to start, apparently. We can get into that more later. But kind of important that you can know what he's saying. Right? Yeah. And there were five people that pointed that out to them. Just the five. Yeah. I mean, it's not like I just heard this from somebody who doesn't like the president. Five people pointed it out. Time goes on to say that Biden bristles at the suggestion that he's aging out of his job. Well, of course he does. Asked whether he could handle its rigors through the end of a second term when he'll be 86. He shot back, I can do it better than anybody you know.
Starting point is 00:21:40 But they didn't buy it. They didn't buy it. Oh, no. And it's nice to see that, you know, others are finally admitting it. Welcome to the party. Glenn Beck. Next time you pull through the drive-thru and get a hamburger, take it home.

Starting point is 00:23:09 today folks uh when folks see shovels on the ground in these projects what the work that you risked your life doing lots of it what was that I'm sorry it was well today folks
Starting point is 00:23:48 I mean how much clearer does you have to get here see shovels in the ground in these projects right the work that you risk your lives are doing lots of it Wow. Okay. That was profound. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:01 I mean, this man is not just sharp as attack, but incredibly talented. Always has been. I'm sure always will be. You know, he doesn't talk enough about his football days. Oh, yeah. He was a great football. Great, great football player. I mean, not in the traditional sense.
Starting point is 00:24:18 No, but in a non-traditional football way. In a traditional sense, you'd be good and people would like notice that you're good. Yeah. That's not the way he was good. No. He was good. In a different way. In a different way. Nobody knew he was so good.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Right. He knew. Apparently he knew, and he did some interesting things when he was playing football. Like, decide against going to the Naval Academy and instead went to Delaware. Oh, wow. But there was a good reason for that. By the way, I'm all Navy, but I was appointed to – I was going to go play to Naval Academy. Did you notice he almost said I was appointed to go to – because you've got to get a
Starting point is 00:24:56 sedatorial appointment? think or a recommendation or something to that effect. And then he realized, nah, they can check on that. I can't say. So he changed that. Well, I found out the other guys in the backfield were a guy named Roger Staubeck and Joe Bolino. So I decided to go to Delaware. But our son, so I...
Starting point is 00:25:16 Which is weird, because I guess he didn't want to have a... Now, he doesn't play in the backfield, so I don't know why... I don't know why that affected him so much. So he didn't go, he didn't go to Navy. No, he didn't go to Navy. Even though they recruited him. Right. He went to Delaware instead.
Starting point is 00:25:30 Which is right on the, it was Navy and Delaware, top two teams of the nation back then. And so he should always battled for the same recruits. Right. At that time. Huge competition. Yeah. Between Navy and Delaware. And so he decided to go to Delaware because Roger Stobach.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Yeah. And Joe Bolino. Who was the Heisman trophy winner in 1960. So I mean, the two great players. Right. So basically he was, so basically he was, intimidated that he wouldn't get any playing time because these two great players were there playing together.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Except for the fact that he didn't play in the backfield, he was a wide receiver. So he didn't have to compete against the two of them. Wait, wouldn't you think if you were a wide receiver? Yeah, that you would want a good quarterback throwing the ball to you. Right, like Staubeck would be the guy you'd want. Apparently that wasn't the case. That wasn't the case.
Starting point is 00:26:18 No, neither was it the case that Stobach and Joe Bolino played at the same time. They didn't. They never played in the same backfield that maybe. And he was never recruited to play it, Navy. So there's that issue as well. Really? Yeah, it's a complex story that you... I mean, there's some nuance there, I think.
Starting point is 00:26:40 I don't know. I don't know how to chalk that up, because I don't feel like that one has anything to do with his, you know, mental acuity falling apart. That's just him lying. Yes. Which he's done all along. All along.
Starting point is 00:26:53 He's been doing this forever. The Amtrak story. Oh my gosh. Where he constantly, he had a certain amount of miles that he had gone and he talked to a woman who was dead. I mean, I don't know if he's got a Bruce Willis today. Joey, baby. And ants came up to me. He was walking and he said, Joey, and he grabbed my cheek.
Starting point is 00:27:10 Joey, baby. Yeah. The guy was dead for 15 years at that point when he did that. Again, not six weeks. Right. 15 years, he had been dead for a decade and a half. Plus, he'd been retired from that position since I, think 1992. If I remember correctly. Why? I don't know. Why would you brag about this?
Starting point is 00:27:34 What? I don't know. It's weird. It's just weird. It's so weird. It's almost as if he feels uncomfortable telling a story about his life. So he has to lie. It's like he feels actually more comfortable lying that he does telling the truth, which is the opposite of most people. Like, if you're, if you're telling a lie, you're like, I don't know. I mean, I feel weird saying. this. I don't know. Like I said they might find out. No. He doesn't. That's not what happens with Joe.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And in fact, he'll tell current lies that are so easily discovered, you know, and that others have debunked, not just us, but his usual allies have debunked these things, like PolitiFact and Snopes and everybody who claims to deal with fact checking. has debunk this one, and he keeps telling it. Bring you down inflation. It was 9% when I came to office. 9%. 9%.
Starting point is 00:28:33 But look, people have a right to be concerned. But look, no, it wasn't 9% when you came into office. And it's been talked about a million times. He's said that at least five times recently. Yes, and he's been called out on it by every. And he doesn't care. It does not care. What was it?
Starting point is 00:28:51 1.9% when he took office, I believe it was? Yeah, 1.8, I think. Yeah, something like that. Yeah. It's incredibly low. Went up to nine. Now it's at, what is it, four? Three and a half four?
Starting point is 00:28:59 Right around there. I mean, about double what it was when he came into office. That one is like, again, a lie that you can sort of understand a politician telling. Now, it's because it's so easily fact-checked, you'd think normally you wouldn't tell it. But like, you can see the motivation there, right? He's trying to make his record look better than it is. And that's very typical of any politician. Everyone does that at some level.
Starting point is 00:29:27 He's just doing it at a level that is like, you know, maybe below kindergarten level. Like it's very, he's very bad at it. But it's the same thing with his, you know, we created 11 million jobs or whatever he's been saying lately. 15 now. 15 million. And he's, you know, he's measuring from the bottom of COVID, which is a fascinating thing. When everyone realizes number one, they all remember the pandemic. It's only been a few years.
Starting point is 00:29:54 We were all there. we all remember all the stores and the, you know, the restaurants and everything closed down. And so that's why there were not a lot of jobs at that point. We all remember that. That's number one. And number two, he supported all of those policies and tried to extend them for years. You know, like when everyone else had moved on, he was still saying that people needed to shut down and wear masks and vaccinate and do all these other things. But everyone else had already moved on.
Starting point is 00:30:22 We're like, wait a minute. What year is this? And it's not just the 15 million jobs lie about the pandemic. It's also the $1.7 trillion that he trimmed from the deficit. Yeah, another great one. Which, you know, blatant lie. Blatent lie. And everybody has debunked that one, too.
Starting point is 00:30:42 And he doesn't care. He just keeps saying it. It's pretty amazing. It used to be that when you got caught in a lie, then you kind of backtrack or you just shut up about it. You don't say it because you don't want to cause. anybody to pay attention to the lie. He doesn't have that problem at all. No.
Starting point is 00:31:01 He just keeps saying it. And somehow that works for him, I guess. Yeah. And, you know, adding this on to what we talked about starting the show today, these moments of mental acuity that are noticeable to people who even like him, it creates a heck of a package here. Because you got someone who's constantly lying and probably doesn't even know what's going on around him. I mean, are you as
Starting point is 00:31:26 as bothered as I am, Pat, about the fact that this interview with Biden where he said, where, you know, that led to the, um, he's a, uh, an elderly man with poor memory, which by the way, we just made
Starting point is 00:31:42 shirts of that. If you, if you would like one for the campaign season, Stu does merch.com. You can get, uh, an elderly man with a poor memory campaign t-shirt. It's very attractive. People will love, a lot of people will think it's a pro-Biden shirt and then they'll get closer and realize it. So, you know, you're going to price that in. But it's available at studiosmerch.com. But when you look at like that situation, we have the transcript of that interview is, you know, how we know a lot of the details of it.
Starting point is 00:32:11 But they will not, the Biden administration is blocking the release of the audio of it. And I mean, what could that audio sound like? Oh, it must be bad. They are claiming executive privilege to block the release of this. Now, we have the transcript. What on earth could possibly be the reason for executive privilege? We already know what was said. Yeah. And it was not good. The transcript wasn't good. But, you know, there is a difference between reading a transcript and hearing this audio. And they're like, well, you know, the explanation given is, well, they don't want, you know, Republicans to put it in in the ads. Which, okay, I mean, I could see that that's not a reason to have executive privilege, however.
Starting point is 00:32:56 So it's not a good legal argument. But like maybe you could say, well, that's the reason why they just don't want the audio of him sounding like he's lost it. They can, of course, put the text on the screen. But I guess there's a maybe added benefit. But like, how bad must it sound? If he was just saying the things that were in the transcript normally, you'd think there'd be no reason. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:17 But it's probably one of these situations where he's stuttering all over himself and stammering and he can't. pausing for long periods of time. His lungs, you know, he's got like one eighth of one lung that's working right now. So he's like, and no one can understand him. I mean, maybe it just sounds scary. Maybe he is able to get up with some concoction of Red Bull and Celsius and get through the day
Starting point is 00:33:44 or at least a few hours of the day. I want to know what that concoction is, though. I really do. That's why I fully support. Trump's plan to have a drug test before the debate happens. And they just did a survey about how many Americans want to see that, or do you not want them to be drug tested? Should they drug test both of them?
Starting point is 00:34:09 70% said yes. Why not? It was 62% with Democrats, 62, 64%. And like 78% of Republicans. Why would you say no? Yeah, why would you say no? I mean, like, I guess you could argue, I don't know. I mean, maybe you say it's invasive to force them.
Starting point is 00:34:29 I don't know. It's beneath us. Like, normally we don't do that to presidential candidates. I guess that's all fine. But like, why not? I mean, jump on board. You know, again, this is a man who has a son who has been addicted to crack. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:42 Right? Yeah. This is a man who had cocaine found at his White House. Yeah. This is a man who seems to be two or three different people based on. what time of the day it is. And sometimes depending on like if he's got a big speech, he's a totally different person.
Starting point is 00:34:59 So what are you hiding? So what is going on? I am interested. Me too. I'd like to know. I'd like to know. I mean, just from a scientific perspective, the things that happened to Joe Biden from one day to the next,
Starting point is 00:35:12 I am fascinated to know. They hop him up on something. For instance, that's how he got through. I think that's how he got through the State of the Union speech this year. Which was still bad. We should point. It was still bad, yes. It was still bad, but I was surprised it wasn't worse than it was because he spoke for about an hour.
Starting point is 00:35:31 And I thought, man, he's not going to be able to get through an hour. He's going to keep this thing to 15, 20 minutes. But he went on. And so I think, you know, there was some kind of chemical concoction that was running through his system that particular night to make it as good as it was, which wasn't good. Which wasn't good. But it was at least, he was at least awake. Yeah. It was doable.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Fall asleep. By the way, there are stories in the Wall Street Journal story about him. Closing his eyes for so long in a meeting, they thought he had fallen asleep. Now, it didn't confirm he actually was asleep, but that's what they thought. And then you had to your point here about the potential substance issues, the performance-enhancing drugs issues you're talking about. When Biden was negotiating with House Republicans to lift the debt ceiling, his demeanor and command of the details seemed to shift from. one day to the next. According to then Speaker Kevin McCarthy and two others
Starting point is 00:36:26 familiar with the talks. On some days he had loose and spontaneous exchanges with Republicans and on others he mumbled and appeared to rely on notes. And that's... This is consistent with what you see on television. Yeah. Sometimes he's okay. He's not good, but he's okay. You can get through it. And then other
Starting point is 00:36:44 times he's just a train wreck. Yeah. And the scariest thing about this is, again, you know, this is a guy who's ahead of the free world. That's the gig. Everything that we notice, when you're watching TV and you see Joe Biden have one of these moments, and maybe it's funny to you, maybe it's sad to you, whatever it is, everything that you notice about that moment is something that people on his team is also noticing. They're all noticing the same things. They know this.
Starting point is 00:37:14 So what you are seeing is the best possible version where people who are paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, a year to be around Joe Biden all the time, do pull every trick in the book to get him to look as good as you see him. That's the best he is. It's pretty frightening. There are people paid, Pat, to make sure his image is strong and virile. Again, he's in his 80s, but like as good as you can possibly get to be presented to us, that we see him at his absolute best.
Starting point is 00:37:52 teams of people who do just this. And what you see on television is the result of that process. That is terrifying. AAA 727 BECK, more coming up. Well, the left is being honest. Bill Maher the other day admitted that killing a baby is murder. I mean, he's okay with it, which I don't know what that says about him. Probably not.
Starting point is 00:38:20 I mean, the honesty is a point in his favor, but there might be some negatives there as well. look, we've been looking at the issue of abortion for a very long time. And pre-born has been doing the same thing. They've been really, of course, not just blabbing about it on the radio, but doing something about it through the largest pro-life organization in the country. And they're leading the charge to put an end to the atrocity of abortion. I think a lot of people thought, oh, Roe versus Wade is overturned. We did our job.
Starting point is 00:38:47 That was part of it. But a bigger part of it is making sure that you can keep these children alive. The pre-born sponsors free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born. When a mother sees her unborn child on the monitor or hears the heartbeat, she's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby. If you want to help heal our land and save precious souls, please give generously to pre-born. $28 can be the difference between life and death. Join the fight by sponsoring one, two, three, or 200 ultrasounds if you can do it. All gifts are tax deductible, and you can donate by.

It's over now. Oh, good. Yeah, there's not going to be any retaliatory strikes on anybody. Oh, that's good. Good to hear.
Starting point is 00:44:08 I was worried about that, actually. Were you worried about that? Yeah, I was actually worried about it. That would be vindictive and wrong for people to. What it? I think that's an interesting conversation. Would it be wrong? Yeah, we might have that conversation.
Starting point is 00:44:21 Next in one minute. Well, as you may have heard, we have a lot of work to do in this country. It seems like the battle is always uphill, especially when it comes to fighting against the left's constant efforts to destroy America from within. But hope persists, and one of the things you can do is patronize businesses who stand for the same principles that you and I stand for.

So you don't think there's going to be any retaliatory strikes with, I don't know, like Democrats being tried for some sort of bogus charge in the future, do you? You know, it's interesting. I do think that there will be retribution. Do you really?
Starting point is 00:46:05 Largely because so many people are saying it publicly. Now it's not even like, okay, there's a talk show host saying it or there's some, you know, internet guy tweeting about it. Like elected officials are just saying like, hey, if you are a district attorney, if you are a prosecutor, if you're attorney general, and you're in one of these areas where there is a prominent Democrat who can be looked into in every which way possible to find if they had any technical violation of the law in any way, go do it. And then don't do what normally happens in such a similar case. right like you know a similar case with Donald Trump the cases the charges would have been dropped maybe there would have been a
Starting point is 00:46:50 you know some sort of fine at the very maximum don't do that pursue it to the fullest extent of the law the maximum penalty make every single claim you can like if there's one payment you have a problem with turn it into 34 felonies
Starting point is 00:47:06 do exactly what they did in New York I was talking to somebody yesterday who you know follows the news a decent amount. And it was like, you know, I don't know what to think about this Trump thing. Not like a hardcore news like follower. I'm not a news junkie. So it's not someone who watched the day to day back and forth about the Trump thing.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And was like, you know, I don't know. I mean, like, you know, he did see. It looks like he did make these payments and, you know, the story with Daniels thing I don't like. And I don't know. You know, part of me thinks that they're kind of coming after him. You know, part of me thinks, you know, he did do it. And he, you know, you get what you deserve. And I said, well, did you know that it was a misdemeanor?
Starting point is 00:47:48 Did you know that it was a misdemeanor that was beyond the statute of limitations? That they had to convolut for the first time ever using this law. They had to convolut another separate charge, which they didn't even tell Trump or anyone in the jury about until after closing arguments ended? Did you know that? Because that's important. Kind of, yeah. Did you know that they didn't even have to agree on what crime it was? They gave them a menu of potential crimes and then didn't allow testimony as to whether those crimes had been violated?
Starting point is 00:48:30 It sounds so preposterous. It's so preposterous. I don't know that people know that. When you say that out loud, it's like, no, that couldn't happen in the United States. in the United States of America. It just did. It just did. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:48:45 You're going to be seeing a lot more of that stuff. Because look, everyone knows the tax code is a great example of this. Everyone knows with tens of thousands of pages of the tax code. If you really want to go take out some enemy, you probably can find something they did wrong. Yeah. You know? Fine. Look, the code, the U.S. code is how many thousands of pages?
Starting point is 00:49:10 I was in Mike Lee's office a few weeks ago, and he's got, I think it's the regulations of the United States of America just printed out and piled up in his office. And it's like as tall as you in three separate containers of just paper, like just to show how ridiculous it is. Like this is a situation where you can find something on someone if you want to. What we had as a country for a really long time was a nation that didn't do things. like that. And now we've crossed this line. There was a story yesterday. It was the New York Times, or no, actually, it was a couple of days ago. And it was one of the main stories about, hey, you know, this is Donald Trump's convicted. It was like telling the story of the trial. And of course, it was all filled with lies. But the headline was for the first time in history, a former president
Starting point is 00:50:05 is a felon or something like that. And you can understand what they're trying to do with that headline, but what they're doing, what that headline says could be one of two things. Number one, the thing they're trying to do, which is basically to say that Donald Trump is worse than all the other presidents. He's worse. All the other ones somehow got through this and never had this problem. And now Donald Trump, who is worse than all the other presidents, is having this issue. And that's what they were trying to do with that headline.
Starting point is 00:50:31 But the other thing that that headline may suggest is that the people doing the prosecuting have broken every American tradition we've had for 200 plus years. The reason why no president before Donald Trump was a felon is because people had restraint. They didn't try to do this to their political opponents, at least in this one venue. We had this one venue where like, okay, the president of the United States, we're going to keep that pretty clean.
Starting point is 00:51:05 The guy's running for office again. Every American can come together and become a giant jury to see if he gets the gig again. We can all vote on whether we think these quote unquote crimes violate our principles and our morals, and we can make the judgment. But they want to take that away from us. And now, once that has happened, once you've opened up that Pandora's box, you're going to see some real trouble. Yeah, you're going to have some retaliation. It's almost inevitable.
Starting point is 00:51:36 They're saying it. not exactly sure I don't want to see it. I mean, it's not the right thing to do necessarily. The tit for tat, the quid pro quo, all of that is not necessarily great to get involved in. But it's hard to argue against it now because you want it to stop and the only way you're going to get it to stop is to show them look at. This is what it feels like. Do you like it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:05 That's a great point. And that's the high-minded view. What you just outlined is the high-minded version of this. There's an article in the New York Times today. The GOP push for post-verdict payback, fight fire with fire. Republican leaders in and out of government are publicly pushing to prosecute Democrats as legal retribution for Donald Trump's felony conviction. And like, I am not the type of person who wants that to be the path of the country.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Yeah. However, I don't, number one, I don't know how you stop it. Without that, what do you do? Just become the constant victim? What is your choice to constantly be rolled over by your opponents? Right. What do you do? That's the alternative right now, really.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Right. The alternative is to sit there and just get, have a car drive over you and then back over you again every single day for the rest of your life. Like, no. Yeah. Right? Yes. I mean, this is the high-minded. version. This is your, the version I think you and I would agree on is outlined by John
Starting point is 00:53:15 Yu. He was a, you remember him, he was the guy most infamous or famous for the torture memos in the Bush administration. Oh yeah. Saying that actually like enhanced interrogation can be allowed under certain circumstances. But he says, in order to prevent the case against Trump from assuming a permanent place in American political system, Republicans will have to bring charges against Democratic officers, even presidents, he wrote for National Review. He added,
Starting point is 00:53:44 only retaliation in kind can produce the deterrence necessary to enforce a political version of mutual assured destruction without the threat of prosecution of their own leaders. Democrats will continue to charge future Republican presidents
Starting point is 00:53:58 without restraint. Yeah. Yes, they will. You know, this is not, you could say Trump is different. Trump is unique. not only are you right, but he would agree with you, right?
Starting point is 00:54:11 Donald Trump is different than all the other politicians we've had before. We all know that. But he is no different in the fact that if Ronda Santis is the candidate in 2028, they're going to try to do the same thing to him. They're going to go after everybody. They're going to continue to do this, and you have to do something to stop them. And the only way you can do it is taking the rules that they
Starting point is 00:54:37 designed on the left and applying it to them, making them feel the pain of the policies they support. And like, I would definitely not be in favor of doing this towards some Democrat who wasn't cheering this on. I would want it only applied to people who have publicly cheered this nonsense on. If you're out there saying, oh, yeah, absolutely, all this is right, you absolutely should be a target of this. And I don't say that as someone who wants that to be the future of the country.
Starting point is 00:55:14 I just don't know what the other path is. I really don't. There's a line in here. Let me read this to you, Pat. The more extreme calls for not just oversight scrutiny and political obstructionism, but revenge prosecutions are coming from former senior Trump administration officials and people close to the former president who are expected to play even larger roles in a potential second term. Their message is often apocalyptic.
Starting point is 00:55:39 There is no longer any room, they argue, for weaklings who fetishize decency and restraint. As a, I mean, it's worded by the New York Times intentionally this way, but like that's a powerful line and something to think about. I would argue that I fetishize decency and restraint as a person when it comes to politics. I do. I really want it. I really want it. I don't know. Am I a weakling?
Starting point is 00:56:04 Maybe that's what you can call me. But like in this situation, because I want decency and restraint, I can't think of another path to get there other than doing the same things to them that they've requested become part of the political universe. They've designed this. They've begged for it to occur. Sure have. And what else do you do, Pat?
Starting point is 00:56:29 What else do you do? I don't know. We've tried it the other way where there's no retaliation. And how, where has that gotten us? It's gotten us here. You know, I mean, Republicans just do comport themselves differently. There's just no doubt about it. And look what, George Santos is a good example of that. The guy lied about his life. He lied about circumstances. He lied about a lot of stuff. And he was kicked out of Congress for that. You've got Bob Menendez and others who have taken money from four. foreign powers and influence their vote as a result. And nothing happens to them. Nobody's insisting, except for John Federman, that anything be done about Menendez and Democrats in those situations?
Starting point is 00:57:20 I mean, they just, they do things differently. And I think that's a really good example of, okay, Republicans don't want liars and cheats. I mean, for the most part, when it's that obvious. They don't mind if nobody catches them line. That's a good disclaimer on that. But when it's not obvious, at least they do something about it. On the other hand, the Democrats don't.
Starting point is 00:57:44 They don't care. And you can find examples, of course, of both sides having issues with these situations. But like this is a different level. It's a they bent the rules in every which way to get to a conviction. We all are aware of that. and their justification was essentially Al Capone, right? It was like, eh, he's a bad guy and yeah, we got him on something else, but so what? He needed to go to prison.
Starting point is 00:58:12 And like, I'm not, I don't like the Al Capone thing either, honestly. Like, I don't think that's a good way for the justice system to work. Get, you know, but I mean, you know, tax evasion is still an important thing. And he did seem to very much do. So I guess, you're fine with that. I just don't like, oh, well, let's find something. Let's keep looking until we find something. I don't like that being the motivation of the government.
Starting point is 00:58:33 I don't think that's a good idea. Let's find something. But that is what they did here. The guy ran for office saying he was going to do it. Letitia James ran for office saying she was going to do this. She came out. She did it. He did it.
Starting point is 00:58:50 And then you get to the end of this situation. And I just don't know what else you do. Unless you want a country that just has Democrats, that are not in prison, what else do you do? AAA 727 BECK, more coming up in one minute.

You know, another example of the difference between the Republicans and the Democrats. How did Democrats treat Bill Clinton when he paid Paula?
Starting point is 01:00:41 was it Paula Jones. Wasn't that her name? When he paid her $850,000 to be quiet, was that a problem? Do we know where that payment came from? Was it logged correctly? I don't know. I don't know, but nobody cared.
Starting point is 01:00:58 Democrats certainly didn't. Oh, that's his private life. Let's stay out of that. That doesn't affect the presidency in any way. Oh, huh. Okay. Well, things have changed in the last 24th. years or so, that's for sure. Yeah. And I fear it's going to get a lot worse. I think this is the
Starting point is 01:01:17 wrong direction for us to go in, but I fear we're going to go in that direction. I mean, look at the Hillary Clinton thing is a good example as you bring up the Clintons. Yes, Donald Trump went on stage all the time and everyone chanted lock her up during that campaign. And what happened when he got into office? He didn't lock her up. A giant zilch. He did nothing. He didn't do anything to go after her. You know, and you can criticize him for that. I think he's critical of himself for that now. I'm serious. I don't think this is going to be a repeat of last time.
Starting point is 01:01:48 When he came out and he said lock her up a bunch of times, he's going to get into office. He's going to put people in these roles that are not going to feel the restraint of these traditions where we haven't gone after our political enemies. How can he possibly think to respect those rules and those traditions? He's been the victim of all of them dissolving in front of all of our eyes. So you think Donald Trump's not going to put somebody in office that's going to make sure they are super aggressive against people like Hillary Clinton? When you have the little oopsie with the business records on your campaign, you think that's going to be just dismissed now? Of course he's going to do this.
Starting point is 01:02:33 Of course he is. And every one of his aides is cheering it on in this article. Yeah. You know, understandably so. Yep. I mean, just why? Just go out and beat him. If you think he's Adolf Hitler, you should be able to be victorious with your 90-year-old candidate. Just go out there and win. And like they're so pathetic that they had to ruin our entire system of government to get this guy thrown, what, 34 BS felonies? They had to put all of this at risk for that. It's incredible. It is.
Starting point is 01:03:11 So it's a disgrace. It is legitimately a disgrace. But such is their hatred of this guy. Yeah. They hate him so much that they're willing to compromise our entire system. They're willing to overthrow everything we've known over the last 247 years. They don't care. They don't care.
Starting point is 01:03:32 They don't care. That's how much they hate his guts. Who respects institutions and who doesn't? We're told that Donald Trump doesn't respect the institution. institutions. How can you even make that argument when you're comparing the two? Yeah, you can't. It is just to watch this happen for just because they just don't want to go out and win. They want to get them taken out the ballot. They don't want any opposition in their primaries. They just want to be able to win. It's theirs. They get it. And now they want to take him and put him in prison to try to. I mean, it's just embarrassing, among other things.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Since the terror attacks on October 7th, anti-Semitism has been on the rise and not just in Israel, but here at home in the United States and, of course, around the world as well. That's why we've partnered with the international fellowship of Christians and Jews. And today we're coming to you to ask the stand with the IFCJ and take a pledge to raise your voice, just as Oscar Schindler and Corey Tenboom did. The pledge is asking Christians to stand with their Jewish brothers and sisters and never be silent to show the Jewish people that they are not alone. that they have God and Christians on their side. For the month of June, we're asking Christians to sign this pledge, which will be delivered to the president of Israel, and will show that Christians in America are not only standing in solidarity,
Starting point is 01:04:51 but they are speaking up as well. Let's make the stand today with International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. This is just one more opportunity for us as Americans and Christians to be on the right side of history. You can sign the pledge now at support.ifcj.org. The rest of the world is abandoning Israel right now. Let's not be on that bandwagon. Support.ifcj.org is the place to go.
Starting point is 01:05:15 Take a stand today with support. IFCJ.org. Don't miss Blaze TV's new docu-series with Matt Kibby. The cover-up. Exposing Fauci for what he is. A liar. BlazTV.com. It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today.
Starting point is 01:05:56 Triple-8-7-27-B-E-C-K. Anybody who's into college sports Should note that college sports are about to radically change. It's already, they've already changed quite a bit. A little bit. I've noticed some changes over the past couple of years. Yes. A lot. They've changed a lot.
Starting point is 01:06:15 But they're going to change a lot more. I heard that Cal is in the ACC. Yes. Yes. Cal, meaning California. Yes. Is in the Atlantic Coast Conference. That's correct.
Starting point is 01:06:29 So is Stanford. That makes a lot of sense. sense. It doesn't it, though? Yeah. And Washington, Oregon, USC, and UCLA, all in the Big Ten. So they'll be playing back east a lot, like Pennsylvania, and they'll be playing Penn State, they'll play Ohio State, they'll play Rutgers. I mean, there's going to be a lot of cross-country trips. And I'm wondering if that's sustainable, frankly, because that's a lot of travel and a lot of expense and a lot of wear and tear on your body. I don't know. I don't know if that'll last or they'll find out. You know what? This was really impractical. We shouldn't have done this. Of course it won't last.
Starting point is 01:07:09 None of these conferences haven't been saying the same for a long time. You no longer have those static conferences where you have these like real battles between rivals, right? True. Yeah. So many of them have dissolved over the years. It's one of the reasons why, you know, I think it's not as good as it once was. But that's just one of the big. I mean, the conference alignment is like the smallest.
Starting point is 01:07:32 piece of this puzzle. Yeah, that's right. The NIL money, the name, image, and likeness, they now pay the players for their name, image, or you can, but not all players are being paid. Starting next year, the
Starting point is 01:07:48 NCAA was just sued because former players sued them because they weren't getting paid. They didn't get the NIL, and they were denied all of that. So they lost a two point, I think it was $2.8 billion lawsuit. So they're going to have to pay these 14,000 former athletes from this pool of almost $3 billion.
Starting point is 01:08:07 And what came out of that is that now the colleges can pay the athletes directly. And that could be, they think it's going to be around $20 million a year, that they can spread out among all the football players, basketball players, whoever else they pay, hockey players, tennis, baseball. Whatever sport you do, you can pay your athletes now, or not. That'll be beginning next year. It's just going to change everything so drastically. Essentially, what's happening is that college sports are becoming minor league for the, you know, major professional leagues now. Right, which is not great. I don't like it. Because, you know,
Starting point is 01:08:51 the minor leagues have. They didn't ask me about it, though, in advance. They did not come to. They didn't clear it with you? They did not clear this. I thought you had signed off on this. I know. No, I hadn't. That's the problem. I hadn't. So it should be stopped. But. So. So. Because minor leagues are great, obviously, for certain reasons, but, like, people don't, you know, they're not obsessed with them. They are obsessed with college football. Yes. So the question, I guess, is, like, once you turn it into a minor league, does it just become less interesting professional baseball, which is just not, it's not something that people care about? We've already have minor, you know, we already have a, you know, the UFO exists and people don't really watch it.
Starting point is 01:09:29 And there's other basketball leagues that people don't watch and minor league baseball that people don't really watch. I'm not that interested in it. They want to see either the best amateurs or the best professionals, not the second best professionals. It's really true. It's really true. So it's going to change, fundamentally change college athletics. And the other thing they're doing is apparently they're going to limit the roster size a little bit for football, especially, because there's 100. 120 roster spots now on the big schools rosters.
Starting point is 01:10:06 Okay, that is a lot. They're going to bring it down to either 100 or maybe even 85, but it looks like everybody on the team will be under scholarship. And that's not the case now. There's usually 30 or 40 guys who are just what they call walk-ons. They didn't get a scholarship, but they came and tried out for the team, made the team, and they're there. Oh, that's part of the charm.
Starting point is 01:10:27 Yeah, I love it. How many movies have they made about walk-on? football players. Yeah. And how many times have walk-ons gone to the NFL and done really well? Not a lot, but some. Yeah. And that's a great part of the story, right?
Starting point is 01:10:40 It is. It is. I don't know why you'd mess that up. Now, I'm of the belief. I don't know how, I don't know if we've ever talked about this about. I'm of the belief that the Supreme Court was right in that you cannot limit people from going out and signing their name, autographs after their, you know, you know, you know, you know, like, you know, a great football player goes to school, they get a scholarship,
Starting point is 01:11:03 they're unpaid, and then they can't go out and make an appearance for a few thousand dollars at a car wash, you know, like, I'm sorry, like you can't, that's like just unconstitutional limiting of people's lives. Yeah, you don't get to control their lives like that. Yeah. If they want to go out and get another job and they want to, you know, and that job is making public appearances because they're really good football player, you can't stop them from doing that.
Starting point is 01:11:26 I think they were correct on that. The NIL thing is, I think is right. But this is just to changing the entire structure of the sport. Yeah. And it's going to hurt the smaller schools who can't afford to pay $20 million to their athletes. So you're either going to have to pay the $20 or $22 million, whatever it winds up being in the end. You're going to either have to do it or you won't be able to compete because the big schools will get all the best players because they'll offer them a lot of money. What's the reasoning for the NFL to care if you went to college and got paid?
Starting point is 01:11:58 Like there was always this idea that you had to go to school and you'd have this development and you'd go through that process at least one or two years of college before you come to the pros. Why would that relationship exist anymore? Why wouldn't they just go to a minor league sport, you know, a franchise? And then it does strike me as like at the end of this college football is like 12 teams like that actually matter. Like there's probably Yeah, well You're going to wind up with just a bunch of Really wealthy schools that buy
Starting point is 01:12:32 All the players Yeah. And they'll form their own conference. They'll form their own conference. They'll be that super conference thing. And then there'll be really nothing else Outside of that. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:12:41 Maybe it's 30 schools. I don't know. But it's not that many. I feel like that entire structure goes away. Kyle Whittingham, who's the coach of the godless animals, University of Utah, said yesterday when he was interviewed.
Starting point is 01:12:56 I can promise you right now, there are even bigger and more changes to come. You're going to see the minor league model for college athletics. What he's saying is it's going to be the minor leagues for all the professional sports. Yeah. You're going to see super conferences. You're going to see a salary cap. And in two to five years, it's going to be so different you won't even recognize it. Well, I don't want it to be that different where I'd love it.
Starting point is 01:13:26 kind of like it, don't we? Yes, I love it. Kind of like college football, kind of like college basketball. But everybody's saying, look, you might as well not complain about it because it's a terrain that already left the station. Yeah. So it's already done. It's a done deal. And the other thing is, what about Title IX?
Starting point is 01:13:42 So if you start paying athletes, are you going to have to pay exactly the same to the women's sports that you do to the men's? If not, we'll hear about it. We sure will. No, but yeah, Title IX will be, that would be, again, they use Title IX for everything, but that would be about as close to a pure violation of Title IX as possible. I think Title IX is dumb, by the way, for a lot of the stuff. I mean, to be honest about it. But still, it is something that exists.
Starting point is 01:14:09 But you see the handwriting on the wall already. I mean, that's what's going to have. They're going to insist that you pay women sports, even though women's sports, just frankly, aren't as possible. They're not as popular as football. And they might be someday. Who knows? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:14:23 I doubt it. But I will say, Caitlin Clark, I mean, had the highest rated basketball game of any, how many years was it? Five or six years, including the NBA finals. Yeah, that's amazing. Which is an incredible statement. It can happen. You know, I mean, like, look, there are certain sports that, you know, women do really well on.
Starting point is 01:14:43 You know, like, I mean, women's tennis has always been pretty popular. You know, I mean, that's certainly something. I think they're pretty well paid. They do pretty darn well. Yeah. Yeah. You know, they do pretty darn well. you're starting to see a little bit of this bubble up in the WMBA
Starting point is 01:14:57 and what do they do as you're seeing all this attention go to the WMBA finally after all these years of it just fledgling and just being just supported by the actual league that profits the NBA? Yeah. They're in the middle of negotiating this contract for TV rights, which they are now going to get, which is incredible, two and a half times as much money as they got in their last TV deal.
Starting point is 01:15:25 The ratings are going down, down, because no one, I mean, they're going down less than the rest of the programming that's on television. And so they're getting two and a half times as much for NBA games
Starting point is 01:15:39 for fewer games with the ratings going down. ESPN, I think, if I remember this right, is paying like a hundred percent premium on what they paid last time for half the games. For the NBA?
Starting point is 01:15:55 For the NBA? But the reason I brought up that negotiation is because right now to show you what not a big deal the WMBA is, it's just lumped in to that negotiation. So when they negotiate the NBA contract it's like, I also get the WMBA.
Starting point is 01:16:10 And then the NBA just gets to do a press release going, by the way, $100 million of this was WMBA money. They're just making that up. It's all just in this giant deal. It's kind of a fascinating structure. But the point is that they can't even stand on their own to get their own TV contract.
Starting point is 01:16:30 Now, all this was obviously happening before Caitlin Clark became a thing. And that would have been maybe a motivation to take it out a little bit wider. But at the end of the day, what is it at WMBA doing with this gift they've been given of Caitlin Clark? They're complaining about it constantly and targeting her and trying to injure her on the floor. treating her like garbage. Yeah. Really. And it's interesting because the NBA is a $10 billion a year revenue generator.
Starting point is 01:16:59 10 billion. Now, up until this point, the WNBA has been a $60 million event. To be clear, that number is the number that comes from the NBA when they just make it up. And they say, 60 million of this is the WNBA. It's not even a real number. It's probably not even that. Yeah, it's just like there's breaking up a chunk of that big deal. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:23 But this new one, they're saying, it's going to be $76 billion over 11 years for the TV deal? For the TV deal? Oh my gosh. They don't get the kind of ratings that warrant that. No. They don't at all. Was that the NBC deal? They went when they went from TBS, right?
Starting point is 01:17:39 So TBS, yeah, it looks like TBS. There's a multi-part deal. Part of it, Amazon got involved. They're getting some games now. Oh. ESPN is already locked in, is my understanding. And then there's sort of a battle between Turner and NBC. NBC offered, I think, $2.5 billion for their part of it.
Starting point is 01:18:01 Wow. And T&T offered, was on, they were talking about like 2.1 or something like that. And so they wanted it to 2.5. My understanding is Turner has their right to match that, though. So it's possible they could still get it back. But right now it looks like NBC is going to get it. Bottom line is, you know, you've got a bunch of, it's a nice way. It's a nice place to be in if you're the NBA.
Starting point is 01:18:20 Because what else do people watch on television anymore other than live sports? All the rest of it can be, you know, is consumed in different ways. Like they skip commercials and, you know, all that stuff. Live sports you can't do that with. And what was it last year? Something like of the top 100 TV shows. 80 of them? No, it's 93.
Starting point is 01:18:39 93 of them were the NFL. NFL games. And 24 of the top 25? Incredible. I think it was. Incredible. Like what? But how, and they only got $10 billion for their TV deal, and they did it, what, three years ago?
Starting point is 01:18:52 Imagine how much they would get in today's market? When the NBA is getting $7 billion? It's obscene. Incredible. Triple-8-727. Back.

Starting point is 01:20:34 Sign up at glenbeck.com. Welcome back. Triple-8-727, B-E-C-K is the phone number. We would maybe get into today, Pat. There's been some developments in the Hunter Biden. situation. About his trial, of course. Yeah. But also his art. Oh. Do you know that they're, all he wanted, Pat,
Starting point is 01:21:16 was to be able to paint. Is that all he wanted? I mean, a lot of times paint, you know, in cocaine on stripper's bellies, but, you know, he wanted to just paint. It was his version of painting. Yeah. All he wanted to do was paint and make $500,000 a painting, and they won't even give them that. They won't even. It's not like it was asking $500 million per painting. Right.
Starting point is 01:21:39 That would be a little absurd. Excessive. The story, we should get it. I don't know. How much time do we have here? No, only a minute. Okay, we get it to do this. It's so good.
Starting point is 01:21:52 There's so many details in there that don't make any sense to me, Pat. That don't make any sense to me. I don't, I wish this is one day. I wish Glenn Beck was here because here's a guy who actually is selling very expensive paintings across the country. Glenn's been doing this for a long time. Actually, seems to be a talented painter.
Starting point is 01:22:14 I hesitate to say that because it makes me uncomfortable to call him talented. But, you know, like, he's been doing this for a while, and you have these relationships with these galleries, and this is a weird world. The art world's a weird world from beginning to end to me.
Starting point is 01:22:27 I don't understand it. I have no, certainly no ability in the realm, but also I just don't, like, who are the people buying, you know, $100,000 dollar paintings?
Starting point is 01:22:35 I don't even, I don't even, understand what that world is. It seems crazy to me. And if I had the $100,000 to blow on a painting, the last thing I would buy with it would be a painting, unless, of course, it was Hunter Biden. Potentially, maybe you can snort the painting when it's Hunter Biden. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:22:51 Maybe that's the value. But we have some interesting details about these paintings we've never known before. We'll have that coming up for you. Right here on the Glenn Beck Program. The Glenn Beck Program. as a new independent, like SAC MAGIC. Hello, here Camille, of SAC MAGIC. Our compresses, show of frauds are fabricated
Starting point is 01:23:21 here, even, in Quebec, with the tissue that we're in the Morrowan that's our vassan that push to the Sagnet. Our presence on Amazon our base of clientele on the world entire.
Starting point is 01:23:29 SAC MAGIC, it's the compress that all the world prefer. At from here, we're grandi. Trovee of little enterprises like on
Starting point is 01:23:38 oner. With Pat and Stu today, and all week, we've got to get into the Hunter Biden situation. First of all, he's on trial for his gun charge right now. Also, news on his art. Get into some of his art.
Starting point is 01:24:43 I mean, I wish Glenn were here for this because he was one of the top 100 people in art, one of the most important artists in the country a few years ago. It was a been 12. Yeah, not one of the most 100 most. It was actually exactly number 100. But he's on the list. But he's on the list. I wasn't on the list.
Starting point is 01:25:06 I wasn't either. Neither one of us made that list, but Glenn did. It's too bad he's not here today, but we'll have to do the art discussion without him. We'll get to that in one minute. All right, never forget to keep your eyes on the prize. That kind of mentality you have to have when you're making big, important decisions in your life. So when it's time for you to buy or sell a home or both, it's also the mentality you're going to want to have in your real estate agent. Because if you have an agent who is,
Starting point is 01:25:33 anything short of a perfectionist and a hard worker, you're just begging to get less for the home that you're selling or to pay more for the one you're buying. And you don't want that to happen. A little over a decade ago, when Glenn was named the 100th most important person in the world of art, it was right around that time that he started, real estate agents,itrust.com.
Starting point is 01:25:51 And, you know, look, he sets up the best agents in your area with you. It's called real estateagents.itrust.com for obvious reasons, and you should check them out today, whether you're moving across town or across the country. Or if you just have questions that need answering, they can help you. Real Estateagentestitrust.com. The name kind of says it all. Go to real estateagentatrust.com.
Starting point is 01:26:12 A free service to you, real estateagentsitrust.com. So today is day three of the Hunter Biden gun trial. And for the first two days, I don't know if she's showing up today, but Jill Biden has been there. She was there for the jury selection. And she showed up again yesterday staring down the jury. and there are people who are saying she's there for an intimidation factor. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. She's there for support, Pat.
Starting point is 01:26:41 Just like Joe Biden went to Hallie Biden's house. Right. Because you understand how important. What was the pre-anniversary? It was the pre-9-year anniversary. So almost nine years since the death of Joe Biden's son, Bo, who Hallie celebrated that death with sleeping with Hunter. right the brother the yes so he was she was married to beau this is while he was doing the illegal
Starting point is 01:27:13 gun purchases well yes she's actually the reason so yeah so if you kind of trace this story back bo biden passes away the obvious response to that if you're you know a grieved lover is to sleep with the brother obviously yeah obviously and i remember how awkward that was when they had to release the Bidens had to release a statement on that. Oh, God, that was just one of the most awkward things. Yeah, we're okay. We're happy that they're happy. Of course, that didn't really work out.
Starting point is 01:27:41 Hunter went on to, you know, to impregnate some strippers. But they were happy for about a minute and a half. Minute and a half. And during that time, they were both doing crack, we should point out. Okay. Both on the crack. And then as Hunter was battling the crack addiction. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:01 And this is part of the, the, trial that is up for debate, but Hunter is claiming he was not addicted to drugs at this time. Of course, every other piece of evidence we have indicates that he was addicted to crack at this time. And he purchased a gun. She found the gun and decided to just throw it away. It's throw it to it. You might as well face it. You're addicted to crack. Remember the song? Yeah, I do. You might as well face it. You're addicted to crack. Mm-hmm. And that's what what he felt. So she dropped the gun off in like some disposal unit, some, you know, trash can or it was dumpster or something.
Starting point is 01:28:33 It was found, and that's how these cases eventually were brought. I heard a podcast this morning discussing this, and they're like, well, I mean, if Joe Biden's controlling the Department of Justice, he's sir doing a bad job, his own son is being tried. Did you miss the entire news cycle where they tried to slip through a deal that would have exonerated him from all of these crimes? Did you miss the news cycle? where that was discussed.
Starting point is 01:29:03 Jeez. I mean, they blatantly tried to make this go away. It did not go away just because one judge, one good judge, actually decided to look at the details of the paperwork. I mean, that is really the only reason we're here. Right. And honestly, the gun crime is lower on the list for me than the tax stuff, which I really hope they get to because, man, that guy did not pay a lot of taxes.
Starting point is 01:29:26 Or alimony or child support. Or child support. For that matter. His ex-wife is owed, was it 1.5 million, something like that? It was somewhere between one and three million dollars in alimony. He owes her. And child support. So.
Starting point is 01:29:47 And, yeah, is that the stripper wife or the other wife? No, that's the other wife. The stripper wife, they had some sort of agreement. Well, he gave her some paintings. And that seemed to take care of everything because they're so, so, so valuable. I will say one thing if you have not heard this little detail, I think you're going to like, is we have a tell-all book coming out from Stripper Wife. Oh, I can't wait. Which is going to be really fun.
Starting point is 01:30:11 I can't wait for that. That is coming out during the Democratic National Convention. I kid you not. That is when they're releasing it for maximum impact, obviously. So that will be an interesting one to see. I love that. But you brought up the paintings. Pat and I'm so glad you did.
Starting point is 01:30:26 You know, as Hunter Biden's life and business dealings have come under increasing scrutiny in recent years leading to this week's trial on gun charges, the president's son has said he hoped to keep one part of his life unscathed. His art. Oh, wow. This is from New York Times, by the way. My heart is just beginning to bleed right now. Yes, that's the same thing I. Yes. I was, well, I was bleeding from my eyes.
Starting point is 01:30:53 I was bleeding from my eyes. Okay. You were bleeding from your... From my heart. From your heart. Yeah. Well, it hasn't worked out that way, Pat. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:31:00 That's why I'm bleeding from my heart. Mr. Biden, who began to paint in earnest as he lifted himself out of his crack cocaine addiction, started attracting attention for his art three years ago after a Manhattan gallery selling his works claimed they were being offered up for $500,000 a piece. This is a great... You know how sometimes words in a sentence can do a lot of work. They can do a lot of heavy lifting. Here's an example of that.
Starting point is 01:31:29 The high price tag, $500,000 painting, rare for a novice artist. Now, the heavy lifting, the word rare is doing in that particular sentence is just incredible. But yes, $500,000 a painting is rare for a novice artist. Has it ever occurred? Rare is an interesting. where it has it ever occurred that a novice, the first time they're out there selling their art, $500 grand a pop. Well, if his name was Hunter Van Gogh, maybe, Hunter Monet?
Starting point is 01:32:05 Yeah. I don't know, but it's not. I'll say, like, if Taylor Swift had a painting, her first painting. I don't even know if it had to be. Like, she's so famous, maybe it overcomes it. But $500,000 for $100,000 for $100,000. There is an asterisk to this, though. It's interesting.
Starting point is 01:32:21 So it's rare for a novice artist to get $500K in case you're not into the art world. And it raised questions about whether the works could attract buyers seeking to curry favor with the Biden administration. Now, I don't know where you get those ideas. I thought it's crazy. Who's writing this right-wing drivel? The New York Times. But in the end, Pat, we have some news, if you don't know this. In the end, Mr. Biden's paintings fetched far less.
Starting point is 01:32:51 Oh, wow. Yes. Did they? His New York Gallerist. $450,000, that kind of... A little less than that. Less than that. He testified to Congress that the widely reported $500,000 asking prices that were attributed to the gallery, including in two emails to the New York Times, one of which was sent in his
Starting point is 01:33:10 name. So it seems like maybe they're the cause of this. They had not been accurate. He said the top price he had received for Mr. Biden's work had in fact been only $85,000. What a disappointment. You know, I will say, you know what? Is interesting about $85,000? That's rare for a novice artist.
Starting point is 01:33:31 That's what I would say. Rare for a novice artist. Yeah. Now, listen to this detail, and there's no addressing this in the New York Times story. And I really wish Glenn was here today because this is the ultimate question to ask Glenn, because he would actually know this. He said the top price was $85,000. In all, the gallery sold about $1,000.
Starting point is 01:33:55 $1.5 million worth of his art. I'm just going to throw this in rare for a novice artist. They sell $1.5 million. This is according to a tally during a hearing that the gallerist did not dispute. Mr. Biden's earnings proved more modest than the early hype had suggested. He reported $130,984 in gross income from art sales. during the first two tax years, he was represented by the gallery.
Starting point is 01:34:31 Now, I don't know how these gallery listings work. I don't have a gallery. I don't understand this world. If you happen to have your own art gallery, we'd love to hear from you. Triple-8-727 back. If you've been in this world, maybe you're a novice artist
Starting point is 01:34:50 that can only get $75,000 per painting. Maybe you're, even that level of experience would be interesting to me today, Pat. It would, but we'd have to mock you. It's pathetic. You're selling your stuff for only 75,000 apiece? Pathetic. What kind of slob are you? But, you know, I would be interested to hear from you because my understanding of how this works is you are putting up your stuff in a gallery.
Starting point is 01:35:21 The gallery is showing it. they're probably getting some commission off of that, right? Yeah. And then you get the rest back, right? But I wouldn't guess it's 90%. Over 90%. Yeah, no. He sold $1.5 million of art and got $130,000 for it?
Starting point is 01:35:39 Absolute lie. It can't. It can't. There's no. I wouldn't think so. Way that's accurate. And that's before taxes. So $130,000.
Starting point is 01:35:50 And that's two years. Maybe that includes paying. for the paint and the brushes. Oh, yeah, that's true. You got to get a lot of brushes. The cost of the materials. I get a lot of brushes. It's got to be another $35-40.
Starting point is 01:36:01 Right. So, uh, now you might think to yourself, gosh, even making $130,000, that's got to be rare for a novice artist. Wouldn't you say? I would. But when you look at the details of it, it gets even more interesting. The biggest buyer of the buyer of the buyer. in art was Kevin Morris, a Hollywood lawyer who described himself in congressional testimony as a friend and Mr. Pindee, right?
Starting point is 01:36:31 This is the sugar daddy guy. What the hell is going on with this guy? I don't know. This is really weird. He's, in previous news stories, we've learned this guy has lent Hunter Biden over $7 million. For what? Why? For being on crack?
Starting point is 01:36:48 And why? And why? What is going on there? This guy is a Hollywood lawyer So weird He now remember the total Was $1.5 million All right
Starting point is 01:36:58 This guy has bought 11 paintings Of Hunter Bidens Worth $875,000 So more than half of all the money Has gone to this guy Who has also
Starting point is 01:37:14 Lent the same artist Over $7 million What the hell is going on? here. So weird. So weird. By the way, 11 paintings, $875,000.
Starting point is 01:37:30 I mean, what's the average there? $80-something,000? Like, almost the highest price. He's basically been buying these for more than anyone else's buying them for. A lawyer for Mr. Morris said in a January letter that Mr. Morris had spent more than $6.5 million, almost $7 million, including paying his back taxes and resolving a paternity lawsuit by the mother of Mr. Biden's fourth child. So weird. What, what is going on there? You cannot tell me this guy's just a buddy. He's not just like, hey, how many millions of dollars do you need
Starting point is 01:38:08 right now? Don't you have a sugar buddy? I thought, I thought almost everybody did. You have one? No, I've got, of course I've got a sugar buddy. How many do you have? Twelve. Twelve. Twelve. Twelve, 12 sugar buddies. I didn't know sugar buddies were even things. I did not even know. I didn't even know. I've heard of sugar daddies. I've heard of sugar bamas.
Starting point is 01:38:30 I've never heard of sugar buddies. Yeah, yeah. It goes way back. So sugar buddies will just pay you to be friends. That's how that works? Yes. And my friendship is pretty valuable. I would agree.
Starting point is 01:38:42 I think it is a valuable thing, but I've never paid you. How much are you getting paid? Not yet. Not yet. So you're trying to convert me to your sugar buddy? Is that really how this is going to go? Wow, I'm learning lots. I am fascinated by this arrangement. I mean, look, my mind can jump to 100 different conclusions as to what's going on here.
Starting point is 01:39:04 Yeah. But it's never even been, the only explanations to this arrangement haven't even been accused. Right. Like, I can't, I can think of some reasons, but like, they have. No one said any of those things or the reason. And there's almost nobody talking about this. No. The Sugar Buddy.
Starting point is 01:39:20 Nobody knows about that. Nobody knows about Hunter Sugar Buddy. Why? Why? Why can that not be a thing that people are talking about? I don't know. I don't know. Because it's very, very weird.
Starting point is 01:39:32 It's very weird. Okay. Let me just tell you about Car Shield real quick. The beach trip turned into a breakdown. It can be a drag.

I mean, what would be the logical, reasonable explanation for the sugar buddy? They're just good friends, and he felt really bad that Hunter lost a job in Ukraine. That where he was making him like $1.5 million, like, you know, a year. inexplicably for no reason.
Starting point is 01:41:27 And they go way back. They're like childhood buddies. Let's just say it was not $7 million, but it was $50,000. You could see a situation. Look, I like his dad. I like his policies. He's in a tough time.
Starting point is 01:41:42 I got a bunch of money. I'll throw him $50,000. If it was even, I don't know, maybe it was Elon Musk. And he was $6.5 million. Not in a big deal at all. Maybe he'd help somebody out he liked. This guy is saying he's out of money.
Starting point is 01:41:54 He spent all of his money. Yeah, he's got no more. Helping Hunter Biden. What the hell is actually going on here? What is going on here? Why? And why is nobody asking that question? Is no one asking?
Starting point is 01:42:10 It's a great question, Pat. Yeah. Why is? I mean, if they're going to ask somebody, they should ask you, have you got 12 sugar buddies of your own. What is a sugar buddy? How is it happening? I mean, it seems like,
Starting point is 01:42:24 like a great thing to have, I will admit. It is. If someone is going to give me $6.5 million to just be friends and hang out every once in a while, I mean, I probably tolerate it. Yeah. But man, I don't, that's a weird arrangement. It is. You know, you ever, do you ever go on these, um,
Starting point is 01:42:40 there's like the Reddit, Reddit has a scam forum. Like it's so, like they have those little subredits that like discuss all these different things. And I signed up to, I was reading this scam forum. And every single day, It's the same stuff.
Starting point is 01:42:56 It's the same scams. The same exact thing. Like, I was on the Instagram and someone offered me $12,000 a month just to text with them. Is it a scam? Yes. It's always a scam. Every single thing posted in the forum is always a scam. I mean, it's in the forum called scams.
Starting point is 01:43:18 You'd think that would make sense. Oh, I had a picture that I posted and someone said they wanted to paint. me and offer me $5,000. Is this a scam? Yes. I was, I just started talking to someone and they said they wanted me to invest in their unnamed cryptocurrency scam that I've never heard of. Is this a scam?
Starting point is 01:43:43 Yes, it's always a scam. That's the lesson. I have the same feeling reading this. This guy giving six points. $8.5 million to the president's son and buying 11 of his paintings for $875,000 when he has now no more money left, the only explanation for this outside of they're hooking up with each other, which again has not been alleged. Something sexual. Something sexual could motivate some of this type of behavior potentially or political favor to the president.
Starting point is 01:44:23 Yep. It's the only thing. None of it makes two ways to go with that. It's the only two things that make any sense. And how many times have I read an article? Well, they're just friends. And I guarantee you. I guarantee you Hunter Biden's not worth $7 million sexually.
Starting point is 01:44:38 So it's got to be the other alternative. I don't know. I've seen some of the pictures. He looks pretty hot. Pretty hot. Sometimes you can't avoid the pictures. I know. That's true.
Starting point is 01:44:49 And it's unfortunate. Well, I mean, how does this compare? Like, what's the top amount you get from one of your sugar buddies? What are your 12? I cap it at about two, at about two million. Two million ap? Okay. Well, you got 12 of them.
Starting point is 01:45:01 But I got 12 of them. So I have a 24-mill. Right. That's interesting. If you have any ideas as to what could possibly be going on here, I would love to hear them.

You know, the trustworthiness of Dr. Anthony Fauci has been up for debate for a long time. I think you and I know that despite the media's campaign to defend his character, there's a lot of suspicious stuff going on behind the scenes.
Starting point is 01:47:15 We know that he lied about COVID. We know that statistics were inflated. And we know that Fauci is tied into all of it. And he's been tied into other things as well. over the years, dating all the way back to the 80s. If scientists, doctors, or journalists spoke out against Dr. Fauci, they were silenced immediately. But why? What is the COVID mafia trying to hide?
Starting point is 01:47:36 And how is the messaging? So perfectly coordinated. So quickly. Our government failed us. The press failed us. And Fauci got away with all of it. So go to Fauci coverup.com slash Glenn. use the code Fauci lied to get $30 off.

Starting point is 01:48:23 is Fauci Lide, get 30 bucks off your subscription to Blaze TV and get access to this really important series. By the way, Pat, I should, we're filling in for Glenn today, of course. Patens do. And I should note that Glenn is in the Radio Hall of Fame. He's in the Radio Hall of Fame for a reason. He always has perfect knowledge of the facts just at his fingertips. And you notice that over the years, right?
Starting point is 01:48:52 Yeah, big time. Yeah. Yeah. He's always done all the research and always knows every little bit of a story. He's never. Yes. He's never overlooked in detail. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 01:49:02 Right. This never happened. No. And that's why, and I'm not in the Radio Hall of Fame. No, neither am I. I'm not even, it doesn't seem like I'm even on the fringe. Pat, are you, Pat might be on the fringe. I'm not even on the fringe.
Starting point is 01:49:12 And this is a good reason why. I missed in the story, I was talking about Kevin Morris, this lawyer who's just inexplicably loaned. The sugar buddy. Sugar buddy. Of Hunter Biden. friends. To the tune of $6.5.7 million. Yes. And $875,000 in paintings. He bought $11 paintings for $875,000 from Hunter Biden. And you might say, well, there's got to be some explanation. What is the explanation? And we kept saying, I can't think of one. But what happened
Starting point is 01:49:42 was I didn't read far enough into the article. And that's the mistake that you make. When you're not in the Radio Hall of Fame, you do things like that. That's how you don't get into the radio hall. Carelessness. So he has actually an explanation in here. Oh. Which explains the entire thing, not just the art, but it's the entire sugar buddy situation, I think. Okay. Quote, I like to support first-time artists. Wow.
Starting point is 01:50:07 Well, there you go. There you go. Glenn would have seen that instantly. He said. And we might not even even talked about it because it was so obvious. The man likes to support first-time artists. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 01:50:21 I mean, he wants to support first-time artist. How many first-time artists has he spent $7 million on? I would assume a lot. Like a lot of them? A lot of them. You know, he probably has been constantly, he's looking for, hey, you know, hey. Well, that's why he's broke now because he's supported so many first-time artist to the tune of $7 million. Now he's tapped out.
Starting point is 01:50:43 Warehouse after warehouse after warehouse with just like, you know, doodles from children, uh, random people drawing on napkins and 1100. Biden paintings for $875,000. That totally makes sense. It does now. Now it does. He likes to support first-time artists. I'm really disappointed in myself for even thinking.
Starting point is 01:51:02 Yeah. There was a presidential favor thing. Access to the president sort of angle on that. I'm a shame. I'm a shame. Like that would be part of it. But no, they're just sugar buddies slash first-time artist supporters. Seriously.
Starting point is 01:51:19 How many times do you say this to yourself? in a day, Pat. How could anyone believe this? I say it all the time. All the time. I can't stop saying. How could anyone believe this? This is being presented as if it's the truth.
Starting point is 01:51:35 This guy, he just met seemingly like a party and he felt bad for him. This is the telling in the story. Felt bad for him because he was unemployed and decided to loan him over the period of years $7 million. And not $7 million of his multi- billion dollar fortune, but $7 million of his $7 million fortune. Guys, this is not a thing. Wow.
Starting point is 01:52:03 This is not a thing. This is not a thing that exists. It's not an arrangement that exists. Not a thing that happens. Unless you add in additional parts of it, which in this particular case happens to be he likes to support first-time artists. I mean, what is going on? I ask again.
Starting point is 01:52:22 And by the way, they do get into some. some detail on the art split, which I think is pretty interesting. Again, here's a guy who is currently on trial for gun charges has all sorts of problems with taxes as well. Okay? We all know that. That's part of the Hunter Biden story. The IRS, sorry, Kevin Morris paid millions of dollars in taxes for Hunter Biden.
Starting point is 01:52:47 Again, very strange. But in this story, they discussed that he sold 1.5. million dollars in art and an income to Hunter Biden, not 1.5 million, but 130,000, which is what, 8%. Yeah. So he had an 892 split with the gallery? Probably not. Probably not. Probably not. But as someone who's wanting to enter the Radio Hall of Fame someday, Pat, I have uncovered some of the details of the split. The gallery's first contract with Mr. Biden gave Ms. Phillips 10% of the net proceeds from his art and described her as an artist's agent. This is Lynette Phillips.
Starting point is 01:53:36 She's a music video producer who hosted a fundraiser for President Biden in 2019. She bought, by the way, 11 of the works and has said that she first met Mr. Biden and Mrs. Phillips or Mr. Morris, who bought the 11 works, met at the Ms. Phillips' fundraiser. So again, to set this up, Phillips is a big fundraiser for Biden. They're at a fundraiser together.
Starting point is 01:53:58 This other guy, the sugar buddy, steps into the picture, and then is like, I feel bad. He's got people, paparazzi taking pictures of him and he doesn't have a job.
Starting point is 01:54:06 Here's $7 million. Okay? That's what we're supposed to believe. Then Phillips gets 10% of the net proceeds from the art as the agent. A second contract, which is fascinating.
Starting point is 01:54:18 this is between Hunter Biden and the gallery. No agent fees. Specifies a 60-40 split between the gallery and Mr. Biden. Now, I am not a mathematician here. But the numbers aren't seeming to add up. No. They sure aren't. Do I need to do this on a calculator?
Starting point is 01:54:42 Yeah. Because just in my head, that seems like, like tax evasion. To me. It does. I am not accusing him of that because I don't have all the records. But I will say, based on this reporting, it seems like, as Harry Reid might say, it doesn't seem like he paid his taxes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:03 Again, I don't know. Maybe there's some other detail that the New York Times is missing. The only other detail that could possibly explain it is if they're lying about the total take, not being one and a half billion. Maybe they're overselling it. But the one guy purchased $875,000. thousand dollars worth. And we have another,
Starting point is 01:55:21 we have a woman in here as well, who I think it's a woman. Another buyer, William Jacques has, spent $122,000. So we got $875. I'm going to add this up. 875.
Starting point is 01:55:35 And 122. So now you're at, 875, this is another one too, 997, right? Plus 122, 997. You're at a million bucks now. And then Elizabeth Hirsch.
Starting point is 01:55:47 Okay, 40% split on just a million. It's going to be $400,000. Another buyer whose purchases have drawn notice is Elizabeth Hirsch Naftali, a real estate investor and Democratic donor. Once again, all these people are Democratic donors who has contributed regularly to the Biden campaign. She purchased two of Biden's paintings, buying at least one of them before the president appointed her to an unpaid position on the U.S. Commission for the preservation of America's heritage abroad. Incredible. Mr. Ms. Naftali.
Starting point is 01:56:16 This is incredible. How is this not known? How is this not a bigger deal? How has nobody tracked this down in mainstream media? I mean, I guess the New York Times has done some of this work. They don't seem to be skeptical of any of these arrangements, though. No, they're not even, I mean, that's not what this is about, really. No, it's really not.
Starting point is 01:56:30 It's more about how he's, he can't believe his art time got taken away from him. But Ms. Naftali spent 42,000 and 52,000 on these paintings. That's another $94,000. We're over a million dollars. of $1.091 million. If you go to, now it said 60-40, I think that means Biden Hunter
Starting point is 01:56:52 gets 60% of it. Right? Okay. I think, but let's just say he gets only 40%. That would still be $436,000 in which he reported on his taxes a quarter of June the New York Times
Starting point is 01:57:04 130,000, which is, you know, a little bit more than a third of his actual income, if this reporting is accurate. Now, I don't know if it's accurate. didn't do the reporting. It's very possible in the New York Times has just made 35 mistakes
Starting point is 01:57:18 in this article. I mean, I would not put it past that. But gosh, it just seems like maybe the truth is that Hunter Biden isn't paying his taxes or isn't paying them to the level that he should be paying them. And it certainly seems like multiple people
Starting point is 01:57:33 have been funneling money to Hunter Biden through his artwork and other forms like sugar buddy arrangements for something. And getting placed by the president in key positions. Yeah, I mean, at least one of them. At least one of them has been placed at a position.
Starting point is 01:57:49 I mean, I don't know how high profile it is, but. But still. It is, I mean, how high profile is it going to be for what, 70,000 or whatever she spent? Yeah, it wasn't that much. But still, you know, you get some kind of position out of that. I mean, I will say, as a person who did apply for a position on the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of Native American Heritage Abroad, I was in the for that position.
Starting point is 01:58:15 Were you? Oh, I didn't realize that. And now she, now I find out that she spent $94,000 on these paintings and got that gig. Where does that leave me? You know, I was trying to do this the right way, Pat. Yeah. I was like, you know what?
Starting point is 01:58:27 I'm pissed on your behalf. Thank you. I really am. How many times have I talked about wanting to be on the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad? I've said this a hundred times. If you listen to my show, Studeas America, I do a segment every day called the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad.
Starting point is 01:58:43 People call me on a regular basis. and say, Pat, can you please talk to Stu about backing off the... Oh, really? They think I would do too much? A little bit too much. Yeah. I just have a real passion for America's heritage, particularly when it's abroad. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:58:59 And I want to preserve it. And I don't blame you. You know, I've been thinking, how do I preserve this abroad? Like, for example, as you know, I've been thinking for a long time, how do we get copies of the Federalist papers into Inner Mongolia? Yeah. I've been trying to get that done for a really long time. A long time. But I can't do it without a commission slot.
Starting point is 01:59:22 No. Right? So I've worked my entire life to get on this commission. Yeah. And now I find out that this woman is just buying paintings to get on there. It's wrong. It's flat out wrong. It's wrong.
Starting point is 01:59:32 Do we or do we not care about America's heritage abroad? No, we do. Being preserved. I do. I can't speak for others. Yes, I know you do. But I'm asking America as a whole. America's heritage is not broad enough.
Starting point is 01:59:51 And when it is, it's not preserved. Exactly right. It's preserved at a lower rate that it should be preserved. All right. Triple-eight, seven-two-seven, Beck. You're listening to the Glenn Beck program. It's something else you know. Something new.
Starting point is 02:00:21 From exclusively on Paramount Plus, it's the series Stephen King calls Scarious Hell. Everything here is not. Possible, but it's also real. Sci-fi vision calls it the best show streaming right now. We're running out of time and we still don't know the rules. Don't miss what the movie blog calls something you need to watch. Saving those children is how we all go home.
Starting point is 02:00:44 From Binge All Episodes exclusively on Paramount Plus. Here's a sobering headline. New estimates show that more than one million babies were killed by abortion in 2023. That is the highest amount of abortions since 2012. The overturning of Roe has only made them more ravenous for the blood of babies. We have to fight back against this evil and stand up against it. When they say, shout abortion, we should shout life. But how do we do it?
Starting point is 02:01:10 Well, we join hands with Preborn, the largest pro-life organization in the country that sponsors ultrasounds for clinics in the highest abortion rate areas. When a mom is considering abortion, when she meets her baby on an ultrasound and hears the heartbeat, it doubles the baby's chance for life. By the time I finish this ad, two babies will have been taken. by this tragedy. $28 could be the difference between life and death. Please choose life. Join the fight by sponsoring one or two or even 200 ultrasounds. All gifts are tax deductible to donate, dial pound 250, say the keyword baby. That's pound 250 keyword baby or go to their site.

Are some people claiming that Joe Biden last week visited um hallie biden bow's widow and uh and they were saying that he well the administration says he was there for the anniversary in advance of the anniversary of bow's death the ninth anniversary of his death well that's what you do with with an anniversary yeah like especially a big one like the ninth is the ninth a big one oh a huge yeah huge one and really it's not even the day of the ninth anniversary it's a few days before yeah several days before and that's when you sell she's about to testify in the gun trial oh really nothing oh i had do with it i had no idea
Starting point is 02:02:58 that was even yeah i know i that's what i sensed from you was that you had no idea that the the testifying thing was about to happen but yes even though that had absolutely nothing to do with it nothing to do they didn't even bring that up her testimony in the trial of his son, Hunter. And of course, if the opposite were true, if it was a Trump trial and the president of the United States came to. Can you even imagine? They would then definitely also give Trump the benefit of the doubt on that, that he wasn't trying to intimidate it with this. Right. And how about if Trump is lying about, say,
Starting point is 02:03:36 one of his sons who died and claiming that his son died in battle in Iraq when he didn't, when he died of cancer in the United States of America, I'm sure they'd completely forgive that too and not even bring that up. Yeah. Just as they did with Biden. No, he didn't lose him in Iraq. No, he didn't lose him in Iraq. It's not accurate.
Starting point is 02:04:00 But they don't cover any of that. They don't talk about any of that. And they just buy it when he says, no, no, we were there to talk about the anniversary of Beau's death. Hmm. Interesting. Very interesting. Very interesting. He's apparently very into this trial, by the way, Joe Biden.
Starting point is 02:04:17 He's not at the actual location, which would be a circus, obviously. But he is very much in touch with him, watching as it develops, you know, on top of it. Of course, I mean, my belief is that he tried to get him off through this deal earlier and it didn't work. So he's very invested. Absolutely. The Glenn Beck Program.
