You're trying to keep them in the best health possible. What is good for your dog? Unfortunately, this brown food that we all give our dogs, it's brown food is dead food. It's, you know, something that has some of the nutrients your dog needs, but not nearly enough. That's why rough greens is there.

Today with Pat and Stu for Glenn. AAA 727B-E-C-K is our phone number. This is great news. There's been a Joe Biden sighting. Yeah, he came out, saw his shadow yesterday, which means six more weeks. Six more weeks of his presidency. Really?

Yeah, yeah. Wow, six full weeks? I'm a little skeptical of that one. It's not a lot of science behind the Groundhog thing, I feel like. Well, we'll share the sighting and what he had to say about inflation. Also really good news. Really good news. We'll get to that in 60 seconds.

Let's talk about your cell phone service for a minute. Now, you know, it's probably an uncomfortable subject because you're probably paying way too much. Maybe you have been for a while. And if you really dug into it a little, you might not like some of the things that these major mobile companies are doing. with the money you're giving them every month. But you know, you kind of just keep doing the same thing because you don't think you'll find anything cheaper and because you don't want the hassle of finding a new company

to do business with. But what if it didn't have to be that way? What if switching to a better, cheaper company was incredibly easy? Well, it is with Patriot Mobile, and right now when you make the switch to Patriot Mobile, you're going to get a whole month for free. They are America's only Christian conservative mobile company, and their mission is to passionately defend

our God-given constitutional rights. and freedoms and to glorify God always. That's a heck of a mission statement right there. You don't get that out of Disney. Patriotmobile.com slash Beck. Patriotmobile.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot. Get a free month of service today. It's PatriotMobil.com slash Beck or called 972 Patriot for Patriot Mobile.

Wait, did you just allege on a commercial that Disney is not glorifying God? Not always. Not always. Yeah, most of the time, I think that's their goal. Wow. But not always, and that's the difference. Huh. Huh.

All right. Yeah, we spotted the president of the United States of America. It's not Kamala Harris. Did they have to tap three times on the door and then he poked his head out? That's how that works, right? That's how it works. Bill Murray was there covering it. Exactly.

Yeah. And this all happened at Brownhawk Festival, the Ponsetani, Pennsylvania. Gobbler's Knob. Gobblers knob. Yes, right. As many times as I've seen that movie, I should have remembered Gobblers' Knob. But here is the President of the United States being asked some questions by reporters. Listen very carefully to what he says about inflation. As the U.S. cheap inflation, Mr. President.

Yes, yes, yes. I told you're going to have a soft landing. We're going to have a soft landing. My policies are working and start writing that way, okay? Okay. Oh, yes, sir. Yes, master. Yes, we will. That's the structure of our country, right? Where the president tells the reporters what to say.

Yeah, it's not great. By the way, that is the structure of our country. I'm not joking there. That is actually what happens. Usually it happens behind the scenes. Here it happens right in front of your eyes. That's exactly what happens all the time. Every news story that you read is basically what you just heard.

It was a little hard to hear what the reporter asked, but he asked him if the U.S. has beaten inflation. And the answer was, yes, yes, yes. I told you we're going to have a soft landing. My policies are working. Are they? Really? Grocery prices are up by 30% or something? That doesn't seem like it's working to me.

Really? Yeah. Now, in what way? Do you have any... In the way that it's way more expensive now than it used to be? And that's bad. Okay. Yeah.

Okay. I see what you're saying there. I don't know. It's a little bit of a leap for me to understand. Is it? Well, maybe it's because I own a small business, too, that relies on groceries and ingredients and things like butter and sugar and cream. Just the basics. Just the basics. This is, of course, kexie.com is the company you're talking about. That's the company that makes really, really good cookies. Yes. Gourmet cookies. And the amount of butter that goes into these

cookies. Substantial. Substantial. It is substantial. Multiple cows worth in each cookie. Yes. 80 cows per cookie. Really? Eighty cows. worth of butter per cookie per cookie uh-huh but calorie-free which was it i don't know i don't know how we did it i don't even ask yeah you'll have to talk to my wife about it she's really good at it but uh yeah pretty sure there's almost no calories i mean there's not 10 000 no per cookie not no i did two cookies you might hit that number but not not not one not with one oh they're so delicious now can we just stop talking about but yeah economy and instead talk about cookies i'd rather do

that. Yeah, I would too. I would too. It's a much better topic because the inflation is destroying Americans. And this is hitting, you know, lower income people, a lot harder than upper income people. So this is really a problem that most people should be concerned with. Yeah, I would say too. And we need to really look back at the history of this a little bit because he's sitting here. And he did say they would have a soft landing. That's true. Now, have we had one? I would argue no. But I think we crashed into the side of a mountain. Yeah, a long time. kind of landing we've had. We hit the ground.

He's right about that. Yeah. The soft part of it, I don't know that I would agree with. But remember that this all follows them saying it wasn't going to happen at all. Right. And he had the exact same reaction in front of cameras and behind the scenes. Start writing that way. You know, hey.

Start writing that way. That is incredible. It's a great illustration as to how this stuff works. Behind the scenes, they are saying that to reporters every single day. Do you wonder why, you get these things. coming out like what was the headline I saw I think it was I think it was Politico that said Trump is now trying to tie Harris to Biden what yeah and I thought you know I thought oh my gosh oh my gosh they you know this is a Biden Harris administration she said they were a team

working together on all these issues this entire time and now it's Biden trying to or Trump trying to tie Biden to Harris and how does that headline happen I think a lot of people think, well, there's this liberal who's trying to make this argument on behalf of Harris. And that, of course, does happen. But much more likely is the fact that someone from Harris's campaign went to a reporter and told them to write this and they said yes. Because that's the way they want this framed. So they hear these things. And this is why before inflation really started picking up when people were saying, I think inflation might happen if we pass.

the American Rescue Act. That's a lot of money we're just throwing out the window. And, you know, we're already past the situation where the pandemic is, you know, it's already gone. And we already had these supply chain issues starting to pop up. Right now, if we dump a bunch of money into this economy, we're going to have massive inflation. And that came from hardcore conservative sources like Larry Summers, who worked in the Obama administration and Jason Furman, who worked in the Obama administration. And then it happened, right? But the whole time before it happened, they said it wasn't going to happen. You should write that way. And what did the press do? They wrote that way. They told us it wasn't going to happen.

And then when it started happening, they said it was transitory. And they went behind the scenes and in front of cameras and said, you know, Jen Saki said it a thousand times. Hey, you start writing that way. Start writing that it's transitory. So they did. They all wrote that it was transitory. And then it wasn't. And this happened throughout, they said over and over. Every time they'd get the slightest drop in inflation as it was rising. They'd say it was over and they wrote that way. Media did it again. And then we hit the peak and everyone was like, oh my gosh, this is terrible. We've gone up 20%. And then it started to come down in a percentage of increase, right? It wasn't that prices came down is that they increased more slowly. And yeah, they weren't going up by 9%.

They were going up by 5%. Right. 4%. And when you'd say that, the average person would say, well, my prices are still going up and they're going up from a much higher level. That's how People felt that. But the White House went to reporters and said, you know, what you should do is say that inflation and prices are coming down right that way. And so they did. And they wrote that way. And they said prices were coming down and inflation was coming down.

Now we're at the period where they finally got one number that was close to a target of theirs. 2.9% was, I think, the number the other day. So that's the first time they've been able to hit any of their targets in three years. And that's still an increase on prices. And importantly, it's an increase on the already high prices. So if you have something that costs $100, it goes up to $133. And they say, well, prices are up 3%.

That doesn't mean it goes back down to $103. That means like $135. Yeah. And this is happening to people all the time. They have to deal with it. You have to deal with it as a small business owner. And the argument from everybody in the press is the argument that the White House wants them to have.

It's right that way. That is the entire media structure right now. Right that way. This is the way we want you to write it. So write it that way. And that's what they're doing. And they've complied the entire time. And then he acts like they're so tough on him. Yeah. Oh, like, what are they supposed to write? They've been writing the whole time that inflation is down, that it's coming down at an incredible rate. and that it's not 9% anymore and that inflation has been lowered by Bidonomics.

And they've been, that's how they've written the whole time. And it's still not good enough for him. Still not good enough. It's incredible. I saw a story today that said they framed some story. I can't remember exactly what it was. But the summary was they have to be, the New York Times has to be careful or they will be accused of pro-Trump media bias. That's like pro-Trump media bias.

They've been basically running an inspirational video to get this guy assassinated for four years. And it almost worked. And like we're having to worry about pro-Trump bias? I mean, it's insanity. I mean, there's no. You can certainly find people who like Donald Trump in this country. About half the country really loves the guy. And the people on conservative media obviously can find positive coverage.

But in mainstream media, you cannot find positive coverage of this guy. Every single thing that he does is horrible going to ruin the country and has been that way. And I said four years, but of course I'm not thinking back to the first election. It's been a decade almost of this, of nonstop hatred for the guy publicly. Yeah. And we're supposed to now worry about pro-Trump bias? It's insane. While Kamala Harris is in the afterglow of one of the most amazing launches of all time,

where she is not required to give us any of her policies. She's not required to do any interviews. She's not required to do any press conferences. She's not even required to announce her own flip-flops. That just comes behind the scenes once again from the campaign who says, hey, media, right this way. And it works somehow. And yet we're worried about pro-Trump media bias.

A big problem in this country, Pat. Well, they've hidden her agenda for. Or ever, well, ever since she became the nominee, they've played along with hiding everything she stands for. And the fact that she's supposedly flip-flopped on certain items, I don't really think she has flip-flopped on her incredible progressive agenda. I think she's just trying to hide it until such time as she could implement it. Because you can't be elected the way with an agenda like hers. Because she is so extreme on so many different things. It's a good point.

We did a show last night on Studios America, more Kamala flip-flops, which was the second in a series. Every time we try to finish it, there's more. And you're right, they're not flip-flops in the sense of her actually changing her opinion. That's not what's occurring here. No, right. What she believed in 2019 was what she really believes. That is real.

The stuff that she's doing now, like, you know, like no taxes on tips is a really blatant example of it, but like, she obviously doesn't believe this, right? Like, she, she just, she got internal polling that showed it's a really popular proposal and now she's adopting it. Like, that's, it is a flip-flop in her public-facing policy. However, it's not really what she believes. She's not going to get into office and fight for that. You're insane if you believe that. If you were in Nevada, you're saying they're going, wow, now both candidates believe this. No, they don't. No. I guarantee you, Kamala Harris will not, spend one minute trying to pass that policy if she's elected.

Absolutely not. Of course not. In fact, Democrats are basically, have basically said they don't want this policy to go through. They were critical of Donald Trump. And all of them said what a bad policy it was and how much money it was going to cost and we can't give any more tax cuts and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They did this whole thing when they thought it was Trump's policy. They're all zipping their lips now. And they're all going behind the scenes to reporters and saying, hey, right this way that we actually didn't oppose it for the past few months since Trump announced it. But like, that's not a real policy. It's not a real policy that she's going to be hard on the border.

Those aren't real policy switches. Those are public-facing policy switches. And they have to be because she can't get elected as radical as she is. Right. I hope. That's a good point. She might be able to be. Yeah.

I wouldn't be surprised. Maybe now. Because we've gone off the deep end. but we'll see. AAA 727 B-E-C-K, more coming up in one-head. What if I told you if it's not, it's not only possible to get rid of that pain you've been carrying around for so long,

but that you could actually potentially go back to feeling the way you used to. Do you remember those days? Back when you didn't have to check with your body before everything that you did, just to make sure it wasn't going to betray you. Glenn used to suffer from horrible pain all the time, and he had to go through his daily routine,

feeling like somebody who, you know, had his hands, run over by a steamroller. He was, I mean, you remember this, Pat. He was complaining about it constantly. And, you know, you think he complains a lot on the air. Oh, my God, you should see off the air. But he was able to get his life back with the help of Relief Factor. It's 100% drug-free daily supplement that helps your body fight pain naturally, developed by doctors.

How are we supposed to? Yeah, because she's not answering any questions. No. You're just supposed to know. Don't you just know? don't you just feel it from her? It's a vibe that she gives off that she's fantastic

and you're going to love it, whatever it is. You're going to love it. Her campaign spokesperson told MSNBC's Morning Joe that they're on a two-track process. Check this out, cut five. We run a two-track process, one that make sure that everyone,

every American and every voter understands vice president's agenda. Oh. Isn't that interesting? Is that the first track? or that's both tracks? I don't. The two track process, one, that every American understands our agenda, which you haven't

explained it at all, so how could we? Right. And I would actually argue, and correct me if you think I'm wrong on this bet, but they actually do run a two-track process. They're running one track, which is to the American people, saying actually all the popular positions on the issues you think I'm terrible on, those are the ones. I have. Yes. Trust me. I'm really good on the border. Trust me. I'm harsh on crime. Trust me. I'm going to

stop inflation. Trust me. Tax cuts for all. Right. And then the second track, which is the real one, which is what she did in 2019. And you notice that because she's not saying these things, she's not pissing off her base. She is flip-flopping from liberal issues to more, at least moderate ones, right? Oh, I'm going to be good on the border. We're going to keep this this this border cracked down in place. We're going to no tax on tips. All that stuff is going on. The crackdown that allowed 10 million people to cross illegally.

It's a huge crackdown. Oh my gosh. Huge crackdown. Could have been 50 million. It could have. But it wasn't. And I think it was probably more closer to 20. Yeah.

But it wasn't 50. We don't think. It might have been 50. It wasn't 500 million though. That we know. Not every person in Mexico and Central and South America emptied out of those countries. Right. Like if you go to Chile right now, there's still people there's still people there's

still people. And they're not here yet. I mean, they probably will be soon, but they're not yet. They're not yet. They're still residents of Chile. It's been a tough crackdown. It has been. And this idea that, you know, they're tough on all these things and suddenly have found themselves in the position after three and a half years of doing nothing to all of a sudden find the popular position on the border is not real. So, and that's part of the charm of being able to leak these things through your campaign officials because your base never hears you say them. They don't, you know, you know, You know, your base never has you on record saying, well, actually, we don't want illegal immigrants here. Instead, they have her on record saying the opposite. And we as the American people are just supposed to believe the more popular thing. So that is a two-track process. Maybe she's right on that. I doubt that's where that interview went, and she explained it that way. But that would be accurate.

It is stunning, though, to me, that they've been able to, you know, get away with this so far. I mean, it looks like people are liking her better than they did before. Yeah. I mean, this works so far. It's been a positive. It's been a good launch. And not because she's done anything to deserve it. It's just...

Not a single thing. Right. It's been one of those things where she's just been handed this by the media. And that is frustrating. But also, I don't know, maybe there's a couple of cracks. Have you... Like, have you... I don't know, we'll come back on the other side with a clip from CNN.

where they're starting to ask some questions. Is this a Jim Acosta? Yeah, Acosta. Yeah, yeah. That's right. And again, Jim Acosta is a close, close friend of all things liberal. Right. Like, he adores.

And he hates Donald Trump's guts. Oh, my God. Hate him. Yes. Maybe more so than anybody else in the media. Right. Even Jake Tapper. I mean, he hates his guts.

I think he does. I think he hates him more. And he built his entire persona on the idea that he hates Donald Trump. and yet he had a Kamala Harris spokesperson on yesterday and even he's like, all right, come on. Yeah. It's palpable. Give us something.

Yeah. Like he wants to be there to defend you. Right? He wants to be there to defend you. He wants to be able to say, well, that's not true. She did that one press conference where I asked her a bunch of tough questions, even if they were very easy questions. They want to have some argument during other people.

But they don't, and that's really pissing them off. Yes. You won't answer any questions by them. You're not allowing them to do the job they think they should. should be doing. And that's defending you. Yeah. Right. And they're hitting the wall on that. And that is, uh, I don't think they can run

out the clock till November, can't they? I just can't believe that. But I hope not. Maybe that's the country we live in. Shoof. Triple-eight-727, BECK, it's Pat and Stupor Glenn today. Well, tragically, we face an active evil when it comes to the subject of

abortion. We who value human life are asked no longer to accept safe, legal, and rare. We're to accept, shout your abortion. But miracles do happen every single day, and sometimes they happen in ways that seem normal, but aren't. Consider this. Because of people like you, every single day, the ministry of preborn is helping to rescue 200 babies from being aborted. And you can't tell me that's not a miracle. That is a miracle. Preborn is the largest pro-life organization in the country, and they are leading the charge to put an end to the atrocity of abortion. Every day, they sponsor

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 that monitor or when she hears the heartbeat, she's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby. Your donation of $28 sponsors one ultrasound. How many babies can you save? Please donate. Just dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby. It's pound 250.

The keyword is baby or you go to preborn.com slash beck. Preborn.com slash Beck. Sponsored by Prebore. Glenn's new book Chasing Embers is out now. Get it at glenbeck.com or wherever books are sold. That is Pat and Stu for Glenn today, AAA 727 BECK. You were talking about the Jim Acosta interview with one of the campaign spokespeople for Kamala. Pretty interesting.

Yeah. Because I think even CNN's getting a bit frustrated now. And it's important to understand why they're getting frustrated. By the way, Jeff Fisher of Chew in the Fat with Jeff Fisher joins us. Hello. Welcome, Jeffie. You know, it's important to understand why Acosta's angry here. He's angry because he's making Acosta's job.

The campaign is making Acosta's job difficult. And the job he sees as his job is making Kamala Harris win. Yeah. It affects him. It affects him. He has to go out there. It's hard. It's not one of these arguments that Donald Trump is making this crazy conspiracy theory argument.

It's obvious she really is not taking questions. She really is not running a normal campaign. Yeah. No way. She really is avoiding the media in any possibility. And she really is making them work for their multimillion dollar salary. Yeah. Yeah, they have to try a little bit harder than they normally do.

They're her mouthpiece. Yes. Right. And they want to be her mouthpiece. Yes. Give us something. Anything. Help me, help you.

It's the old Tom Cruise thing. It's like, help me. I'm trying to help you. Help me. We want. It's amazing to me that she hasn't had a, one interview, just one. She could lay the groundwork.

I can't believe, she could make a call right now today and say, hey, you know, I want this person and this network, and these are the questions, and these are my answers, and I want full editorial process at the end. Can we do that in 15 minutes? The trucks would be out in front of the one. Do you know what Rachel Maddow would say to that? She'd say, what plane should I be on to get there? We could be there.

Where do you need me to be to make that happen? Exactly. They would approve of that. Second, we remember this with Biden. Remember Biden after he was having it, he had the bad debate. They were talking about him maybe dropping out. All right. And he had those campaigns.

He had those events with, he did a couple of radio interviews. And all the- Which were terrible. They were terrible. But they were all scripted. But they were all scripted. He knew what all the questions were in advance. And eventually they admitted that.

These poor radio hosts got fired for it, which is like, shouldn't this be more of a campaign issue of an American issue than these poor radio hosts? But they went along with it. They wanted to have the president on. So they went along with it. And I think that's where we are with Kamala Harris now, right? Like where she, I mean, she could go on with Rachel Maddow. And every question will be, how did you get to be so awesome?

Like there's not, you know, she doesn't even need to do an interview with somebody difficult that's going to ask a tough question or two. And she's too scared to do that. I don't know if it's the campaign or her. I mean, she's terrible, right? And she can't do anything comfortable. You know, if we were talking this morning, uh, I'm Pat Gray unleashed. that if she were to go on the view, that's too comfortable. You know, I know that it's all friendly,

but she would get to cackling and they'd be, you know, it'd be the girls club. And she can't really do that because that makes it even more of a nightmare. For just cackling. Pretty telling, though, that she won't even do that. Yeah. That's pretty amazing. That's true.

I think the view is an interesting one because the problem with the view is the hosts are really dumb. Well, Camalo's, I don't know if you know that she's not really the brightest bulb in the box. But they don't know what lines to walk to not ruin her campaign. They're too stupid to understand. They shouldn't ask about Medicare for all or something, right? Like, they might just blower out. Because they think that's a great thing to all Americans. Now, Rachel Maddo also thinks that, but she's smart enough to know it would hurt her campaign.

So she wouldn't ask about it. Right. Right. Like, there is, it's a little bit of an uncontrolled environment. It's like you're just going into a room of, a. babbling morons. And they might just say something that hurt me, know, heard to.

That should be the name of the show, in fact. The babbling morons. It would be more descriptive. Yeah, it would be more descriptive. Would it still be under the ABC News banner? Yes. Right. Yes.

Which is incredible. The babbling morons of the coven. It could be called. That would be great. It's a little long, in fact. That's a little long. Just call it the coven. Just call it the coven.

We'll know they're babbling morons when they start speaking. Let's listen to this Jim Acosta clip. This is with some campaign spokesperson I've never seen before. But the bottom line is listen to Acosta. And listen to his approach here, because this is not an approach where he's like, I demand an interview.

It's not that at all. It's very friendly. Listen. Would it kill you guys to have a press conference? Why isn't she had a press conference? Listen to the vice president and Governor Walls have been busy crisscrossing this country since the launch of this campaign and adding Governor Walls to the ticket.

You saw the ways in which they went across the battleground states last week, generating rallies of thousands, 10,000 here, 15,000 there. But Michael, you know, a campaign rally is not a press conference. Do you mind if I cut in? Do you mind? A campaign rallies, not a press conference. Why isn't she had a press conference? She's the vice president. She can handle the questions.

Why not do it? No, she can't. That's probably. We absolutely are going to do it. You hear her take questions. But why haven't you? And she's, as she said last week, we're going to. We're going to be having a sit-down interview here before the end of the month.

I love that. What she's going to be focused on. The campaign is going to be focused on is communicating directly with the voters that are actually going to decide the pathway to 270 electoral votes. That's why she committed to the walls across the country this week. That's why we're doing a bus tour in Pennsylvania as we head into Chicago. And it's why we'll sit down for an interview before the end of the month to make sure that we're going to have a discussion about the vision that Kamala Harris has for where she wants to take this country in the contrast that we're going to have with Donald Trump. We're going to have plenty of opportunities to do that throughout the rest of the interview by the end of the month. I don't want to, you know, belabor this.

But one interview before the end of the month. I mean, that's not a lot. I mean, can you commit to a press conference before the end of the month? No. No, we can't. We will commit to directly engage with the voters that are actually going to decide this election. And that is going to be complete with rallies, with sit-down interviews, with press conferences, with all the digital assets that we have at our disposal.

The digital asses, they're going to tweet a lot for you. That's going to happen. Wow. Some TikTok, some Instagram. Amazing. Now, was there a big demand that they weren't doing enough crisscrossing? Was that a thing? That is their line.

That is. We're crisscrossing the United States. What does that have to do with the question? Who cares? What geographical patterns you're going in? Because we're talking to the American people. We're out there talking to the American people. Yeah, yeah.

You're talking to the American people without any questions coming from the American people. It's not like she's doing town. halls. Like you could, even if she was skipping interviews and press conferences, if she was doing town halls and you got some unscripted questions that came in and put her in some difficult situations, maybe you could excuse it a little bit. And when are the town halls not scripted? Right.

They're always scripted when it comes to the Democrats. Now, with Trump, he's always getting crazy questions. Huh. And he just goes how that happens. Yeah. That's an amazing clip because Acosta, I mean, he's almost apologizing for asking the question. I'm so sorry. I got to bring this.

I know it's annoying. Would it kill you that is do a press conference? Just do what? Make my life a little easier and just do a press conference so I can say that to everybody how many press. We're still going to report that she's great. Yeah, I know. It's like it really is the plea.

Like we're still going to cover for you. Don't you understand that? Give us a press conference. The questions won't be hard. We're the ones asking them. You're going to pick the people asking the questions. Just pick us. And we'll ask good questions, easy ones.

hey, I mean, I guess... We'll even submit the questions like we always do. We always do. We'll even ask the questions that you send us. We don't have to submit anything. Just tell us what we need to ask. Right. We'll ask you whatever you want.

But we have to be able to have some argument to go back to the American people with. That's all he wants. And that's it. And the fact that she can't do that and hasn't done that yet, crisscrossing the nation so busily, I love that. It's really telling. It is.

It shows how. bad, a candidate she is. And this is why she lost so quickly when she ran in the first place in 2019. Yeah. She was the first one out. She didn't even make it to the primary. She was so bad. Didn't even make it to Iowa. And she did have a couple moments there. I mean, she was up in 13, 14 percent in the polls, which was good enough for second or third at one point. After she had that one debate where she called Joe Biden a racist and that worked pretty well. People really believed that. And they should. They are right on them because he is. Yeah. But I thought that that is, you know, it's interesting, though.

And let me ask you this from a campaign management perspective, aren't they doing the right thing? Like if you, if your goal right now was to get Kamala Harris into the White House, which I know it is not, but if it was, would you change anything about this approach right now? Probably not. No, I think the less, the better. I think less is more with her. That's the, that's the, they just flipped Joe Biden in his basement. It worked for him in 2020. It worked for him.

It's working for her. She's gone from a 30-something percent approval rating. She's now leading the race in a lot of these polls. She's totally, at the very least, has removed all of the debate, post-debate sink of depression, canyon of Joe Biden. At the very least, I think she's done. She doesn't have the dementia issue. She doesn't have that. That was a big thing.

She wipes that off the table. But she does have the dumb issue. you. She does. She does, but this is what I'm saying. They're not showing that part of her. Right. Like what the part of Kamala Harris, they've exposed. She comes out at her little, when she's criss-crossing America, she comes out and reads the same script, stick to it. You can tell she works hard, man, no laughing, no, it's serious. She doesn't know how to handle the protesters. She just wants to read her script and walk away. Yep. And she seems to, because I can criticize her intelligence. like anybody else. But she seems to be smart enough to realize America won't like her if she speaks too much. Well, they already, they've proven that.

They've proven it. And she, but like, it's a hard lesson to learn, right? It was a hard lesson for Biden to learn. When people kept saying he was too old, he kept denying it and denying it and denying. And said, just watch me over and over and over again. And we did. And he lost. Right?

She's smart enough to look at this and say, I tried this last time. People did not enjoy me very much. as a vice president, I came out and spoke from time to time and was the least popular vice president in American history. People don't like me. So, I mean, in some ways, you give them credit from a strategy perspective of understanding that they have a candidate people don't like,

and the more you can hide her, the better. And until the press gets that level and more all over the place, demanding this happens, it's not going to happen. I'm surprised her press is starting to get mad. They should, if you look at it like that, like they're doing it on purpose, this is her deal, other than just wanting her to shut up and not make a mistake. But the press on her side, they should be, you know, get their morning facts saying, look, she's not going to do any interviews, okay? Quit asking her to do interviews. Blame it.

Blame it on the conservative reporters. Yep. Because she doesn't, the conservative reporters are just going to twist everything she says into lies. and that's why she's not going to do these interviews. Blame it on racism. Blame it on sexism. Come up with some reason why she's not doing it and just keep writing it out. And the only thing that will change that is like massive public and media demand.

I mean, think about it. Think about it from the Republican primary perspective. Donald Trump didn't do any of the debates. Why? He was winning. Why would he do them? Yeah. And there were calls for him to come do the debate.

Hey, get in front. Donald Trump's not going to have. He's good at debates. He's obviously had, he had the most historic debate victory in American history against Joe Biden. Right? He could do debates. He might have lost,

you know, I know a lot of DeSantis supporters were like, hey, what the heck? Get him out here. And there was a decent amount of people saying that, but there wasn't an overwhelming demand. The race never got close enough for him to justify it.

And as long as she continues to be rising in the polls, why the hell would she change anything? She's already annoyed. Yeah, she's been annoyed by the media. They won't, they won't demand anything. out of her. That's about as harsh. That Acosta clip is about as good as it's been able to get. From his conversation with some completely unknown campaign spokesperson where he's sort of...

Never seen that guy before. I've never seen him before. And he sort of kind of asks in a way of like how you'd ask your best friend. Dude, you gotta show up to the gym. I got this, I got this membership. You got to show up with me every once in a while. It's like that. It is. You know, it's like I, you told me you were going to, we're going to get a membership. We're going to work out together and you never show up. You got to shit. Would it kill you to show up one Tuesday? Yeah, I can't do that.

Can't do that. Sorry. Not coming to the gym. Right? That's all that was. Yeah. It was like best friends saying, hey, you keep I keep going to the corporate,

you know, happy hour and you never show up. Would it kill you to show up one time and kiss a little butt to the boss? AAA 727 BECK. More coming up. Amazing. Right now, there are scammers pretending to be the Department of Education,

stealing information and money from people while pretending to forgive their student loans. Now, I will say the Department of Education's already stealing money from you, but they admit it.

back after these messages. Pat and Stufer Glenn today and Jeffie joins us. We had Lee Greenwood on my show this morning. Yeah. Pat Gray Unleashed? I love Pat Grand Leashed. Thank you so much. And it loves you. Really?

Yeah. So he is the same age, almost exactly the same age. He's about a month older than Joe Biden. They're both 81 years old. But in dog years, Biden's like 356. And Lee Greenwood's about 506. I mean, the guy is sharp as you as can be an active and spry and, you know, you still see the life emanating from him.

And you still have a conversation and he can actually have train of thought, stop, go to another thought. Say words. It's kind of amazing. And it's fine. I understand things happen to people when you age. And something has happened to Joe Biden. But he's still occupying the White House. Yeah, I forget about that.

We were just talking about this up there. I was like, oh, wait, he is still present, isn't he? They didn't get rid of him. Yeah. I mean, they're getting rid of him. They just made him go away from the campaign. Yeah. And they're getting rid of him, obviously, in January at the very latest.

I thought that he'd already be gone, to be honest. Are you speculating that that might happen sooner? Let's just say there's a situation where Kamala is down by five points. Like, let's say, you know, they have this little boomlet here with the Kamala launch, and then Trump takes control of this again. It starts to look like it did back in, you know, around the debate. If that were to happen, I think they might say, hey, it's October 9th. You're almost there.

You're almost there. Step down. You step down. And we'll put Kamala in. We'll give her the big first black president, first female president. Worst case scenario, if we lose, we at least will always be able to say that. The Democrats are the one that put the first black woman president in. And also, you know, you promise Joe.

Hey, as soon as the election's overall, apart in Hunter Biden, maybe he just goes with it. Jill will never let that happen. Dr. Jill? Dr. Jill stops it? Jill will never let that happen. The Glenn Beck program. You know, your home is your castle,

Is that possible? A big chunk of it. Now, this is not her very original idea of not taxing tips. She came up, she's already announced that part of it. That is a central part of her belief system. Always has been. Always has been. From the beginning.

Until Trump stole it from her. Yeah. A couple of months ago. It's weird that he announced it before she did when, you know, he got it from her. I think there are spies. Yeah. I think Trump has spies inside. Kamala's campaign. Interesting. And that is what's happening. Okay. That's the only thing that could possibly explain.

I played the, the other day I played the clip of Trump from his convention speech explaining his, how he came up with this policy. And it's like, so Donald Trump, it's incredible. Like, because,

you know, most of these guys, you know, they shop it through, you know, white paper at a think tank. Now, he's like,

I was at the restaurant, a Trump tower. and I was talking to this waitress and she was like, ah, these taxes. He said, what about these, what if you didn't have taxes on tips? And she was like, yeah. That's like the whole story. What's wrong with that?

That's America. Yeah. That's America. I mean, it is kind of incredible. That's what I like Donald Trump right there. And you know that story is true. I actually, we stayed at the Trump Tower when I was out in Vegas, you know, in February. And there's only one restaurant there.

There's one restaurant on the ground floor. It's like it's a different hotel than a lot of those. you know, big resorts there. It doesn't have the casino in it, for example. Like, it's like a little, he said it was on the strip. It's near the strip. It's right. You know, it's like, it's a little bit of a walk to get to the strip.

But like, you know, they have those huge, you know, the aria and the MGM and the wind. These are massive hotels with like dozens and dozens of restaurants. There's only one restaurant in that Trump building. Like, we need to send a reporter there to just talk to the... It's probably the best restaurant on the strip. It had some damn good breakfast. I will tell you. It has some damn good breakfast.

But, I mean, it would be interesting to have a... reporter going there and just talk to the waitresses because one of them is definitely the person. Yeah. One of them is the person who he talked to at breakfast. It just was like, hey, you know, do you mind if I, you know, just what about no taxes on tips? All right. Now, now both parties agree. Yeah.

Started with ground zero. Right there. Right there. Can you imagine what the internal polling is saying on that policy for Kamala to embarrassingly have to have to adopt it in public? It's got to be against it. Yeah. I mean.

You can come. Look, I think there's real arguments to lower taxes on people. You know, the tips thing, it's a little arbitrary. Like the people in the back of the house making the food don't get the tax cut, but the people in the front, like, it's a little arbitrary from an economic perspective. Yeah. I'd rather just have to be a broad-based tax cut. But again, that's not sexy.

And hopefully it'll be that too. I mean, you could do both. Sure, you could. I mean, Connell is certainly not going to. She's going to raise taxes on everybody, including corporations to 30. And the other thing she wanted to do was raise capital gains taxes to income tax rate. Oh, yeah. Wait, okay, so since I've already paid the initial tax on that, now I get to pay the same tax on the double tax, too?

Oh, that's nice. You're welcome. Isn't that great? It's really nice. I love that. I love that. Yeah. It's a disaster for America.

It's a disaster. The good thing, though, she's not going to raise taxes on anyone who's making less than $400,000 a year. and that is the important thing you need to remember. The only thing you need to remember about her policies. Now, of course, even if that were true, which it is not, still those people who are making less than $400,000 have to pay the prices after all for inflation. So it's a, you've been taxed one way or another. It's a matter of whether you recognize that.

She's going to make a big speech today about lowering inflation. And she's had unfortunately no control over this for multiple years. It's not like she's been in the White House. She's had no influence on policy. She's got nothing to do with Joe Biden. Nothing to do with this failed president. Who's one of the greatest presidents of all the time. It should go on Mount Rushmore, but also failed.

So he has to change all of his policies. Yes, we did. I mean, how does anybody fall for this? I agree he should go on the Mount Rushmore presidents, though. Really? The worst of all time. The worst president of all time Mount Rushmore. He'd be on there.

He would be front and center. All right. Who else we're putting on there? We're putting Mordra Wilson on there. Obviously. And that's a, you have to understand it's a legal requirement for us to include Woodrow Wilson in a conversation about presidents. And you must be very prominent. Yes.

But you've also got to have LBJ. Oh, yes. I'm glad you brought him up. A lot of people ignore him. He's got to be on that. He's on there for me, 100%. Biden's on there. That's three.

If I have to, I'll carve his face into it myself. Okay. I've got a little extra time. And between like 11 in the morning and 3 o'clock the next morning, I, got some time to be carving chisel away. Chisle away. It's a stone. Yeah. But then I got to be here for show prep and that kind of thing. But then I'm going right back out to chisels. So you got, you got Biden. You got Wadrow Wilson. You got LBJ. Who would be the fourth? And then the fourth.

I don't know. You got to have Biden sniff on somebody's hair. It's a tough one. It's a tough one because you got FDR to consider. That's who I was thinking about. You've got Jimmy Carter. I was going to say Carter. That's a good one. You've got Barack Obama. Got to include him. Thing is, Jimmy Carter still loved America, I think. I believe Jimmy Carter still loved America. I think that's probably true. He was terrible.

Yeah, he was terrible. But I believe he still. I think he was a patron. Yeah, I do too. And his was a problem of incompetence more than anything else. I mean, he had bad ideas too, but he was really bad at just managing them and doing the job where like Woodrow Wilson was pretty good at doing the job when he didn't have a stroke. He was pretty good at doing the job.

He just, the things he was doing hurt the country a lot. I mean, you can make that argument with Barack Obama as well. I think you could partially make that argument with Joe Biden. I mean, I think if you look at Joe Biden's presidency from a liberal perspective, pretty good. Right. I mean, oh, from a liberal, yes. Yeah, like if you're a hardcore progressive wanting to turn this country towards socialism. Oh, yes.

He's done that. Yes, he has. He's done a lot to destroy it. I would argue that I don't want the country turned toward socialism. So I think he's a terrorist. terrible, terrible president. But in the same way, you'd look at Woodrow Wilson and say, okay, well, I mean, I don't think the results of his presidency were good, but you could still say he turned the country away from a direction of freedom toward one of control by the central government. And he made those arguments overtly.

And so did FDR. Yeah, FDR is a good one. I mean, there's probably like, you know, those 1800s guys I lose track of mostly. But, I mean, you can certainly go back to some of them. It's a recency bias. Yeah, for sure. You know, you go back, you basically have the founders in recent guys. That's the way, like, people like John Tyler just sitting there and you're like, who?

Who the hell is that? Wait a minute. What about James Buchanan? He's got to be in there. He's got to be in there. Probably would be in that conversation to be on the Mount Rushmore of bad presidents. But like, I don't know. It just feels like you're being lazy.

James Buchanan who even knows. Right. It's too long ago. We've recovered from it. Exactly. These guys. Have we, though? A little bit.

Yeah, I think we did. And then we didn't. And then we did again. And then we've come out of slums. We're still paying for Jackson's mistakes. Jackson's another one. Glenn would certainly bring up Andrew Jackson if he were here. Yes, he would.

There's a lot of names that could go on there. But it's hard for me to knock any of those other three off. I think between Biden, Woodrow Wilson, and LBJ, like I'm locked in on those three. I've already chiseled them. I don't know who that fourth one's going to be. So he's just going to put a little candle with like six or seven little heads on it? Yeah. Yeah.

I think you've got to go Barack Obama, frankly. The guy who fundamentally transformed the United States of America and set it up for Biden to finish the job. Again, I wonder if we're- You could get them to pay for it by putting him on it because they'd think, oh, my gosh, we're honoring a Barack. Yeah, that's true. I will say, I wonder if we're in recency bias too much by putting the last two Democratic presidents on there, which is, but I mean, Biden just seems. I mean, like. But look what's how.

happened to America since them. It took... Since the two of them. How long did it take Obama to go from... Well, I can't just do anything on the board. I can't just make these people citizens. You know, DACA that eventually became DACA. He denied that for about six years before he actually did it, if my memory is correct.

Like, it took him a long time to break the Constitution to do it. He tried to convince people in Congress to do it. Biden did like 10 of those things in three years. Yeah, you did. You did. between student loans and eviction moratoriums. I mean, we could go through the whole list. But you could make the argument that a lot of that

was as a result of Obama. Yeah, the groundwork was laid. Yeah. And that's the same argument you'd make with Wilson, to be fair. I mean, like, you look at Wilson's stuff and you'd be like, that's tame compared to what they're doing today. But he opened up the possibilities of those things occurring. Right. You know, same thing with LBJ in some ways.

Like, he passed programs that wound up growing into the thing that has destroyed our economy. And honestly, is probably more responsible for inflation than anything that Biden did. I mean, the LBJ programs have grown so big, they've taken over our entire budget. And then weirdly, LBJ, who was maybe one of the biggest racists ever to hold office of the presidency, is given credit for helping Black. Yes.

I don't even know how that's possible because he signed into law the Civil Rights Act, I guess. I guess that's why they gave him credit. He opposed it before. He opposed it for years leading. up to that. And then when the pressure got to be such that he could no longer resist, yes, he did finally reluctantly sign it, but you can't give him that. He was terrible. He is one of the most racially important presidents that constantly use the N-word. And I don't think people necessarily understand that. He's super, super positive on racial equality plus the constant

use of the N-word in private and talking down to black employees and not even treating them as human beings. Right. But, you know, what a racially important president that LBJ was. So he's up, he's up on the. He's chis-in-heel. To me, he's there. That fourth one is interesting.

I think Obama's up there. FDR is up there. Carter is in there somewhere. You're going against Joe Biden. Oh, Biden's on. I think Biden's there. I thought we could only have four. Those three are already done.

Biden is a rare combination of wanting to overturn our entire system of government, which has been a bunch of presidents. A bunch of presidents have been that. But combining that with real legitimate incompetence. I mean, something like the Afghanistan withdrawal doesn't even get talked about it anymore, but it is the largest foreign affairs failure of any president in my lifetime for sure. And maybe of all time, you know. And this is a great time to bring it up.

up. Yes. Because the Taliban just showed off all of the equipment. The $80 billion worth of equipment and weapons we left behind. Yeah, we have some of this footage. And this is that, just, if you're watching, if you're not watching, it's American equipment being created by the Taliban. I had read this story and not seen the pictures. This is not a small parade. No, it is not. No, it's huge. And look at the helicopters. Yeah. Amen. We just left the Apache helicopters that one after another. Then you got this guy babbling gibberish.

We don't know why. It might be a language. We're not sure. It's an ad for a car wash. Something like that. We don't know. We don't know. There are discounts apparently.

It's embarrassing. It's humiliating. And that's why they do it, obviously. Of course. And so what is Kamala Harris going to do? Which, by the way, I should. point out to people, because there's a lot of confusion on this, she is in the administration right now.

She's the vice president of the United States currently. She has been the deciding vote on every single one of these policies. In fact, she's cast more times than ever, right? More deciding votes than any person in history. Interesting. Okay? That's something you should know. Yeah.

Because what I heard today was a Donald Trump campaign trying to tie Harris to. to Biden. Are you kidding? You mean, because her name comes after him in the Biden-Harris administration? Yeah, we're the ones that tie. We're the one that did that. He picked her as the vice president of the United States, and the party picked her as the president without getting her getting any votes.

So, yes, they can't be tied together. Which is amazing to me. I still can't get past that. It is incredible. It's just amazing to me. I thought for sure, I mean, nobody liked her. No one liked her. Even in the media and her own staff.

I mean, they were trashing her. including Joe Biden, who allowed a lot of this to happen. The Biden people allowed her to be trashed in the media over and over and over again because they didn't like her and they wanted to show that she's doing nothing. She was a do-nothing vice president. And they kept to that line until the line was more necessary, which was she's great. She's wonderful. She's Rosa Parks.

She's, you know, whoever she is today. So that's where we are now. She's going to come out with this big economic speech today. We should get to that because we didn't wear the same. side shot. More coming up in one minute. You think people notice we got side chart there at all?

I would also like to know if you want to give us a call, 888727 B-E-C-K. Who are, who's on your Mount Rushmore of terrible precedence? Terrible president. I mean, you agree with us on those three? The three that we kind of locked in on were Biden, LBJ and Woodrow Wilson.

Who's your fourth? And maybe you think we're wrong on some of those. Give us your nominations. 888-7-27-B-B-E-C-K is the phone number.

Oh my gosh. In a speech laying out her economic agenda on Friday.

So who decides what is gouging and what isn't? Who decides? I assume it's Kamala. I guess it would have to be. Well, those damn big grocers. Or she'll appoint a commission of some sort. A commission of left-wing nut jobs. to tell us which prices are too high.

Is your arugula too high? As we learn from Barack Obama, it can be. It really can be too high. This is a speech coming up on Friday. Campaign officials said late Wednesday. So again, we're not getting this from her. We're getting this from more campaign officials. The plan includes large overlaps with efforts that the Biden administration has pursued for several years

to target corporate consolidation and price gouging, including attempts to stoke more competition in the meat industry. and the Federal Trade Commission's lawsuit this year that seeks to block the merger of two large grocery retailers, Kroger and Albertson. Again, big grocers. Big grocers. And that's what they're going to do, price controls, right? They're going to say, you've raised prices too much.

And this is their only out. Every other explanation of this problem leads to them. So the only one it could be is corporations during the last three years have discovered greed. Before that, they were just ambivalent, nice people who never thought to try to charge too much for on prices. But then they saw, wait a minute, it's 2022, 2021. What if we raised our prices and just sucked in more the people's money on tomatoes? I'll not be able to say no. Yeah. So they discovered all of this greed and implemented it during the Harris Biden administration. I wish they wouldn't have discovered it. No. It's like fire.

You know, it's like the nuclear bomb. Did you see the movie, the three-hour Yes. Yes. But it was it called? Why am I not? It was Barbie and Oppenheimer. And Oppenheimer. And Oppenheimer.

And he created the nuclear bomb. And if he didn't do that, who knows? World would have been much better place, as we learned in the movie. Here, it's the same thing. Corporations discovered greed, probably from Donald Trump. They didn't discover it while he was president. They were looking at Donald Trump and they were like, this guy who wrote the art of the deal back in the 80s and has gold, you know, apartment buildings. We can't detect any greed there.

we only have detected in the last couple of years and have decided to just rake these people over the coals. And we're going to do it, by the way, in an administration that's on the left, that always complains about it. So instead of trying to do this when Trump was president and try to get greedy then when this obviously greedy president would have been fine with it, instead they've now gone the other direction

and only came up with the greed in the last couple of years. So that will be solved. I mean, that's what we have to believe. Yeah. Yeah, it is, right? It's the only thing that would explain it. Yeah. And this is happening as well.

Joe Biden, who apparently still the president of the United States. It's still in office. It's still in office. Is now pushing a rent control scheme. This is another, like a nationwide rent control thing? Yeah, it is basically a nationwide rent control thing. By the way, if you're interested in how economists feel on that, they're not in favor of it.

They probably aren't writers. They actually... Have they been to New York? Because it's worked so well there. Look at the low prices in New York that you pay. It's worked really well. It's true, really well. What percentage of economists agree with the rent control scheme?

Do you have any idea? Oh, it's got to be 90, 95%. Two. Two percent of economists think it's a good idea. Legitimately two. It's two percent. Lawrence wrote in about his dog's experience with Rough Greens. He says,

I bought my dog many different kinds of supplements over the years. She wouldn't eat very much. In general, she just kind of shied away from it. But when it comes to Rough Greens, not only will she eat it enthusiastically, she will finish by licking the bowl clean. She has more energy now and her coat is nice and soft. Rough Greens is a total treat for her and we're very happy to discover it. Thank you so much.

Rough Greens isn't a dog food. It's a supplement. You just sprinkle it on top of the dog food. And it was developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black. And, you know, if you think about it this way, Brown food, kind of dead food. So what do you do? You want the greens.

You name it, if it's healthy for your dog, it's probably in Rough Greens. The folks at Rough Greens are so confident that your dog is going to love it. They have a special deal going on right now.

Have an update on the economic agenda of Kamala Harris?

Well, a couple actually submissions on the Mount Rushmore of Terrible Presidents. Oh, oh good. Triple-8-727 B-E-C if you want to call him with. yours. Jimmy Carter is the worst president. It should be on the Mount Rushmore. Over Barack Obama. Over Barack Obama. Another one says James Buchanan should be the guy.

And we have this one. We can't put him there. He was our first gay president, supposedly. Yeah, that's right. Oh, really? Oh, okay. I didn't know that. Yeah, we can't do that. You didn't know that. Okay. Who should be on the Mount Rushmore memorializing the absolute worst, most vile evil America crushing presidents next to

Woodrow Wilson, LBJ, and FDR. So that's their fourth one. Oh, you're eliminating Joe Biden? Or are they including? No, including Joe Biden. Okay, Joe Biden. LBJ. LBJ, Woodrow Wilson, and FDR.

FDR is the one. By the way, that one comes in. That one comes in from Pat Unleashed on Twitter. Apparently, you actually did already do this and say that FDR was your fourth. Yeah, we did five, though. I think we did five. I added a fifth. You can't add a fifth.

You can't add a fifth. Because I couldn't just do four. There had to be five. So, yes. I can't remember what it was. Yes. You can't remember what it was. It was, I think we squeezed Carter in there.

Look, when you start chisling and you're already there, you're already there. Yeah, all right. You already there. I told chislet. I mean, you have, you said you had a full day between 11 and three. So you can get that done. By the way, the reason why we were talking about the Kamala Harris economic agenda, she's got this big speech coming out.

Price controls and rent control are two of the big proposals that are going to be made. Now, the chances of these things actually being passed, I would think we're low because there's such catastrophes for the economy. It depends on how the election goes, though. Yeah, if it's a Democrat majority, you never know. You never know. You never know. Oh, geez, heaven forbid. All of Congress and the White House.

Who knows what could happen? But I will say the reason why it's being proposed is simple. As I said, only 2% of economists agree that rent control is a good policy that actually will, the way it's framed is interesting too. It's not just is it a good policy. It is just 2% of- Americans. Yeah, just 2% of economists agreed with the idea that Biden's rent cap proposal would make

middle-income Americans substantially better off over the next 10 years. So that's a really specific thing. It's not like some conservative framing it in a way that would be harsh on Biden's proposal. Only 2% of economists agreed, but 73% of voters agreed that they want rent control. Now, of course, people don't like high rent. Right. This is the... And more people are renting.

Yeah. And this is the... People can't afford houses because of the Biden policies. The mortgage rates are so high that people are pushed into this thing. thing, well, gosh, I need help. And when they need help, for the first time, we are living in a country now where they look to the government for it. Yeah. We forever were not that country. And that is a big, big negative. That's been a big problem for our country for many years, and it is showing itself here. And it's like if you've got a 73% approval rating on a policy, you look at that as a success,

whether it's going to kill the country or not. Mm-hmm. And that's what we are. One little rent policy isn't going to kill the country. Just stacked on top of all the rest could well be the straw that breaks the camels back. I mean, they just keep piling it down. I mean, hello, that's the problem. One thing after another. Speaking of which, Disney has another little controversy going because their new snow white star, Rachel Ziegler. She just posted a free Palestine post, and apparently people are going crazy on it.

at the end of her tweet said, and always remember, Free Palestine. I think we all feel that way. Don't we? Don't we? Free Palestine. Because, you know that,

I expected that to happen a little bit more at the Olympics. I didn't see very much of it. I think there was one guy. I saw, in the men's basketball presentation for the medal ceremony, I saw one guy from France, and I don't recall who it was, had the Palestine flag. And that was it. And then, you know, we were talking off the year. I don't remember any of the other winners.

I think it just happened once. I don't remember any other winners wrapping a flag or holding up a sign or shouting free Palestine into the camera. No, I don't remember that at all. Certainly improvement from 1972, for example. Yes. That had an improvement. I don't know that necessarily the rest of the world is improving on that particular thing, but it was nice to see.

There were some nice moments in the Olympics, actually. Yeah, there were. I mean, what did you think of the Britney Griner thing? Where she cried for the National Anthem? Here's someone who took a knee. I was moved, frankly. Really? It moved to me.

Yeah. I liked it. I thought that was really kind of cool. I kind of did, too. I had you to admit it. Did she develop an appreciation for her nation that saved her from a Russian prison? I think so. I think so.

Let's hope so, yeah. I guess a lot of people thought it was insincere. Yeah, I mean, I don't think she was necessarily faking the tears. I don't think she's that kind of actress per se. But I mean, I do think that her, the things she likes about America are different than probably the things. Yes. And she may have been crying out of, you know, happiness that she won the gold medal and how life has turned out. I don't know that she was crying because how great America is.

you know I think you could probably parse that that's probably accurate but I mean I think if you think about her experience from being in a Russian prison to standing on the stage receiving a gold medal in the Olympics pretty cool I mean it's a good moment and look at the end of the day she lives in a country that actually cares enough to try to get her out to give up massive terrorists to get her out of this yep you live in a country that will give up mass murderers to get you home and that is it's a good country that would that would that would do something like that. It might not be a smart country. Right. But it is one. I think now all Russian terrorists are back in Russian soil to wind up murdering again over the past couple

of weeks of hostage releases. But we got a female basketball player back out of it. We did. So that was good. And she won the gold medal. And she won the gold medal. So I'm a little conflicted on it. But it was you get to that point where you are. And that gold medal is the one that was the men's that tied us.

So we tied it 40. And then beat them by 35. in overall medals. Yeah. So I always get irritated with the websites that place the gold medal winner at number one, regardless of how many overall medals are. Like that one gold medal is going to overcome the other 35. No.

Well, we have way more people than China, though. So we can't really compete. No. It is, I like making that point until I start looking at like Finland. And if they want to go, well, let's not look at the population distribution. Or Australia. Don't think about that. Don't worry about that at all. It only counts between us and China. Well, when you think about what China does, you know, where they take kids out of their families at three and four years old and put them in sports academies and raise them there and, you know, beat the crap out of them and torture them when they come back home without cold.

Yeah, because that doesn't happen here. It's pretty amazing. Well, it doesn't happen here. The parents are doing it here. Okay. So it's totally different. Completely different than the government. First of all it is But secondly also

Maybe we should get some of that under control But You know I think it was interesting to watch the Olympics Because I mean like For example like I hate Many people will know that I do not I'm not a fan of LeBron James

And the fact that he was the front man He was the centerpiece man Of the entire I thought of you the entire time Dude just so you know Just furious He is a centerpiece man And he just you know Just you know pushed a kid away

Or whatever he did to do A white kid. Oh, well. Yeah. Push the white kid away. He did. And he was like, you know, get out of my face basically to some kid trying to get an autograph.

Don't. Yeah. Really your too. I mean, he's not a, look, he's not a good guy. I'm not a fan of him at all. But even like watching that, with all the LeBron hatred that I have, I still wanted the Americans to win the basketball gold medal. Now, that's not the case with soccer where I want us to lose.

I want us to lose every single time because the more soccer victories we have, the more it will be covered by national media. And I want it to be covered less because I hate soccer. But that's just a soccer. separate point. I don't mind if the difference between us losing to China and the Olympics is losing a soccer medal, I'm fine with it. That is, I'm completely okay. I think it's better for the country

that we talk about soccer less. So, that's just me. That's actually a very patriotic standpoint. People would say, well, why are you rooting against America? Because I want America to be a better place, a better place without soccer. That's why. And soccer is a communist sport.

So, I think we all understand that. That is my stance. Yeah. So. But, but, we did win the gold, right? We got the gold in that. I think we did. In women's soccer. In women's soccer, not the men's. Yeah. Yeah, the men. Did the men even, did they make it? Did they qualify? I don't know if they even qualify. They were a waste down. Were they even there? I think there was one, there was only one sport we didn't, we didn't compete in. And that was the team handball. What? Which we should. We should be great at handball. Yeah, we should be great at handball.

I think you'd be a wonderful handball player. Any sport. Any sport, yes, because you are athletically overweight. So the athletic part of that really comes shining through. Thank you. It comes first. Thank you. It's a weird sport.

I don't necessarily appreciate your tone. It's a cross between lacrosse, soccer and hockey, sort of. Yeah. The handball thing? It's weird. It's weird. And you're hitting it with your hands? You throw it.

You throw it. Let's just throw it. But you don't have to. See, that's the problem. America's don't know the sport. I don't know the sport. That's the problem. Americas don't know the sport.

If America's knew the sport, we go, oh, we could do that. I can do that. And we do it. It's like ping pong. Why aren't we better at ping pong than we are? I think because everyone who plays it looks like robots. That's why. They hit the ball nine zillion miles an hour, impossibly.

I don't know how anyone could be better than the people who are playing. It looks impossible. It's incredible. And I think that's what we decided as a nation. Nah, China's got it. No. I'm not even going to tell them. If I do that, I'm going to be drinking.

So, yeah. But I'm looking forward to Milan already in two years. Yeah. I'm not. It's going to be fine. You're not a big Olympics fan? I watched more of it than I would have expected. I was on vacation that week.

So it was on TV at night every night. We watched, you know, like the Noah Liles, right? Yeah. That was a fun thing to watch. Won the gold in the 100 meters for the first time in 20 years. And then. It was awesome. And then came out to the 200 and came in third because he had.

had COVID. Yeah. And was competing with COVID. Like, how far have we come? They wouldn't let anyone in the stadium last time. He's hugging the other athletes and breathing on everybody. He's coughing in people's face. And we're like, ah, no worry about it.

It's just COVID. Yeah. I mean, when did everyone turn into a conservative on this issue? I don't know. It's very bizarre. That is really amazing. No one was in the stadium last time they did the Olympics. Right.

Right. I mean, that's why the numbers were so bad. Yeah. I mean, they were the Tokyo, the no touching, no breathing, stay away from everybody, Olympics. Yeah. And by the way, we should point out that Tim Walls, in case you were wondering, his particular approach to COVID, not only was he was one of the biggest shutdown governors. He was doing that in November of 2020, shutting down all public gatherings in November of 2020.

Not March, not April, not May, November of 2020. We played a video the other day. on Pat Graham Lee's. I don't know if you're familiar with the program. I love that show. Freaking love it. Except that one, when you have that one guest

that comes down a couple days a week. Oh, God. Jeffie? Yes, yeah, that's terrible. But other than that, I love the show. I thought I heard the show loved you back, but I could have heard wrong.

We played a video that has been trying to have been scrubbed from the internet, I'm told. But Tim Walls was sending, you know, police and military out to enforce their... Oh, yeah, in Minneapolis. To enforce their lockdown. Yeah, and so there's people to get back in their homes.

Oh, here we go. It's a little. I don't think it's much of a distinction. I just want to make it. I think it's a distinction without a difference. But my understanding was it was actually more related to the George Floyd lockdowns. So like it wasn't COVID related as much as it was, okay, our cities are on fire. But it doesn't make any difference.

No. I mean, first of all, they're both related, number one. And number two, they were still trying to keep people in their houses and people who were in their houses. on their porches, we're still getting fired at with paintballs. So I don't think it's any better, but I just... No, I see what you're saying. It is in that period, in the middle of that period. But he was terrible.

I mean, he had the COVID snitching lines. And this has been driving me crazy. And I know we're running late and I'll go to a break in a second. But like, what's just been driving me crazy is he's the guy with the COVID snitching lines. Tell us what people are not wearing enough masks. Yeah. Hey, my neighbor just left their driveway. They're going somewhere.

And every speech he's making right now is, well, what we do is we mind our own damn business. Oh, do you? Do you, Tim? Unbelievable. All right, yeah, take a look at this. This is amazing. Yeah. The actual video.

Okay, the curfew, so this curfew was not really COVID. It was the George Floyd. Yeah, it's just a different curfew. It was in 2020. It was in May, right? We can't hear the officers, but they're screaming at people to get back in your house. Get inside. And then they say light them up.

Go inside now. Get in the hell. Yeah. And they're firing paintballs out of them. Which hurts, by the way. Get in, get in, get in, get in. Get in. I mean, this is insanity.

How about no? That's insanity. All right. Triple 8, 727. You can never take your safety or the safety of your family for granted. That's one of the reasons to carry a firearm when it's appropriate. But it's, what about those times when maybe a normal firearm is not appropriate? What about the times where you might need force, but not deadly force?

Those times do exist, you know, and while it's always better to be over-prepared than under-prepared, the best thing, honestly, is to be properly prepared.

You know the civil asset forfeiture you sent me the email of the other day in Indiana. We need to talk about that. Oh, man.

Incredible, right? Outrageous. What's going on here in America? How is this allowed to happen? this has been a pack great Giod for some time now and it just keeps getting worse it does does because people well they don't do anything they don't care they don't seem to care that the government can just steal your money for no reason they don't have to charge you with anything they don't even have to imply that you've done anything wrong and good luck getting it back yeah it's tough it's

really really hard get into that coming up the glenbeck program the practice that's really common in america civil asset forfeiture. It is blatant theft by the government. Apparently legalized theft, but it's absolutely unconstitutional, but it keeps getting worse. We'll tell you about an incident, well, an ongoing situation in Indiana that is happening right now that is really hard to believe. Coming up in one minute. So what are you truly an expert at? Most of us have at least, I don't know, one or two things. I got, Koso. I would say is one of my expertise. I really understand what good Koso is.

With all that in mind, think about what you are an expert at, and think about whether it's buying and selling homes. Probably not, unless you're a real estate agent who is really, really good at it. You don't want necessarily to have somebody who's just trying out real estate for the first time, maybe part-time. You need somebody who really knows what they're doing. You need someone that has made their life about having expertise in this particular area. Makes all the difference in the world.

It really does. You just sold your home. Just went through it. Yeah. Yeah. And our realtor, I mean, she saved us so much money and then made us money on the sale. I swear by them now. Really?

Swear by a good realtor. It is a big, big deal. And it's your biggest financial transaction, right? You better do it right. Real estateagents. com is a place to go to find the best agent in your area. Real estate agentsitrust.com. This is a free service to you.

And the name kind of says it all. Real estate I trust. Dot com. A civil asset forfeiture. You know what you love it. Situation in Indiana that is outrageous. We've talked about this before where if you're carrying cash and you're pulled over by law enforcement, and it's a lot of cash, oftentimes they'll just relieve you of the cash so that you're not burdened by it any longer.

Relieving them. Relieving. I didn't know they're relieved of the cash. That's what they do. I mean, they'll, they just blatantly take tens of thousands of dollars from people if you have. have it in cash and they pull you over for any reason and they find that there's cash on you, it's not illegal to carry cash. No.

And it's not illegal to carry $10,000 or $20,000 or $50,000 in cash. It just isn't. It's not. And the justification seems to be basically it's suspicious that you have that much cash, therefore we could just take it. Right. Right. And then you have to prove that it's not suspicious.

Which is the opposite of our system. Yes. Yes. Correct. It's 180 degrees in the opposite direction. And it all started with going against the drug kingpings. Yes. That's what they wanted.

Because a lot of times people who deal in drugs have a lot of cash on them, right? You sell the, you give them the drugs. I just look at you. I just looking in your direction. It was nothing specific. I'm just saying that it does seem that people who handle drugs often do maybe carry around cash. Not really a big credit card business, right, Jeffie? No, it is not.

It's not. It's lighten the card for the scutamine. There's a case in Utah we talked about a while ago. This happened a few years ago, but the guy was pulled over on a highway in Utah, and he had $490,000 in cash on him or something. I don't know why. It's none of my business why. It's none of the government's business why. But he had a lot of cash, and they took it. They just took it because they suspected, well, you must be a drug dealer if and I think it goes beyond that it's like we want that cash we're going to buy some really nice vehicles that's where they're at now yeah it started out with arguably good intentions right arguably you want to still you can't do that you can't do it and it's not illegal

to carry it and what a lot of people would say is well what was let's in that case $490,000 why did he have that much money as you point out I don't know doesn't matter yeah doesn't matter if the person commits a another crime like there are ways to go get his $490,000 prove he committed a crime and then you can have it. Yes. In some cases. I think he was saying, I think his excuse was, and he shouldn't have to make an excuse. No, correct.

If you don't have any reason to believe that he committed a crime, if you don't have evidence of it, then move on. Yeah, move on. But I think he was going to pay cash for a house or something. I don't know the circumstances. And again, who cares? It's not your right. They never proved. They never charged him with anything.

That's the biggest thing. If you charge someone, you could argue. And I don't argue this, but you could argue if you're charged with a crime, we're going to take your money and hold it so you can't just go spend it on stuff. But we're not going to spend it in the meantime. We're going to hold it until such time as you're found innocent or whatever. And if we find out their ill-gotten gains, then we're going to take it. We're going to take it and maybe redistribute it to the people that was stolen from previously or whatever. But that's not what they do.

No, it isn't. I would argue that you need to convict someone of a crime. before you start taking the crap. Well, that was the thing behind. The drug kingpins, though, is that they would, they would, you know, have evidence that these were drug kingpins, but they had all this cash, automobiles, homes, that they could, you know, move around and slide around and live here and take this. If they wanted to be able to confiscate that, I sure did.

It would hinder the drug kingpins business. Right. And to be fair, they would charge a drug kingpin with a crime, and they would find ways to, they would relieve themselves of the drug kingpins. the money before it was and so they would convict them and then they would be no money to take and you know what that's really hard and gosh darn it sometimes things are hard then people got right then it's supposed to be hard to convince people then people got upset about you know how they when they started going down the road of just taking people's 10,000 dollars 12,000 dollars 40,

000 that they said well oh oh okay you're right now that is bad but it's not us we've got to deal with the federal government now and so we're taking it but we're not keeping it we're giving it to the the federal government. Well, we're going to split it with the federal government. The federal government has given us a kickback from that. But we're not taking it all. So it's not all on us. Yeah.

And so it's really hard to get your money back. This guy, the guy in Utah took it all the way to the Supreme Court in Utah. And they ruled in his favor eventually, but I've never heard. I don't know that he got his money back. I don't think he's still gotten his money back. Then there's a case. I mean, there's all kinds of these cases all over the country. People stopped at airports with large amounts of money because they're going to

buy trucks when they get to their destination or whatever they're going to do. Again, it's none of our business. So what? It's none of my business. And it's not the government's business why they have cash on hand. Unless you've got evidence they did something wrong. And even then you've got to get the conviction before you can take the money. So it's crazy. Yeah. And there's so many cases. We're going to tell you about this Indiana one in a second. But another one that comes to mind all of a sudden, all the time when I think of these cases, There's this one guy who was a car repairman, and he had a bunch of tools.

He was in Chicago. He's in Chicago. He's in Chicago. He's fixing people's cars, and he's working on someone's car who's at his shop. He doesn't have a ride. He needs a ride back to wherever he was going. So he goes, yeah, sure, I'll just give you a ride.

He takes his car. He puts his tools for his business in the back of his car, starts driving, you know, driving this guy back to his destination. In the meantime, on his way there, he gets pulled over. Can't remember what the reason. was some traffic violation, I think. A likely story. So they asked him to get out of the car, they search him, and the passenger, who was just a customer

at his shop, has drugs on him. Now, he didn't have drugs on him. They didn't accuse him of having drugs on him. But his passenger, who was just a customer of his, has drugs on him. They take his car and do not even let him get the tools for his business out of the back of his car. So he fought this for years and years and years to get his car back so he could maintain going to work and the tools for his business. And it took, I don't, I think eventually after multiple years, it wound through the courts and he was able to get his stuff back.

But of course, his life cost him. It cost him a fortune and his life was set back multiple years. And you might recognize that again as the opposite of the way our judicial system works. You're innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. but that's not how we're operating now. And in Indiana, there's a class action lawsuit where law enforcement is seizing millions of dollars a year from cash from FedEx packages

without ever informing owners of what crime they're suspected of violating. So they don't even have to say, hey, we took your money because we think that there's drugs involved. They don't even tell them that. The money's just gone. Yeah, we took it. Henry and Min Chang, who run a small California jewelry wholesaler business, alleged a class action lawsuit in Indiana state court that police seized over $42,000 in cash from a FedEx package

en route to them from a client in Virginia. County prosecutors then filed a lawsuit to forfeit their money through civil asset. Forfeiture, claiming that Chang's money was connected to a violation of a criminal statute, but they never said what. statute was violated. Weird. It's incredible. It's incredible.

I have multiple questions. And this is going on multiple times to multiple people in Indiana. So obviously Indiana has found a way to say, are we just stopping FedEx trucks and randomly having dogs sniff packages and when they get a hit? I think it's happening at the warehouse, isn't it? Yeah, this is what's crazy about it. They're basically just allowing these dogs to walk by packages. and sniff them in the facility.

If they sniff cash, they pull it out, and they take the cash. Which just sounds like a great business if you can get into it. It sure does. I need to get me a cash sniffing dog. I'll tell you that. I know. A lot of times they justify it and they say, well, the dog smelled cocaine on the cash. Yeah, the cash gets a hit of drugs, of course.

They do say that, what, 90-something percent of cash has some sort of residue that would be illegal. on it. I know that's what I say. I don't know about they, but I say that. But, I mean, it's incomprehensible that you would do it this way. So they're not even looking for a specific person, a specific criminal, a specific crime. They're just sniffing a bunch of packages to try to find cash. And when they find the cash, we confiscated.

They confiscate it. That is incomprehensible. I mean, if that's accurate and it is a law suit. So we don't, the lawsuit is not complete yet. We don't know the whole story, I suppose. But it is happening all over America. And it does seem like that. can't allow that to happen.

I mean, I guess they're saying that it would be for your safety that they have, you know, law enforcement come through to look for bombs or whatever. This particular FedEx hub is massive. It's the second largest in the country. It processes up to 99,000 items an hour. So almost 100,000 items are processed through here an hour. You're going to find cash and probably a good number of those. I mean, maybe people just need to stop sending cash.

Maybe that's what it needs to happen. Maybe it's none of the business of the state of Indiana to decide who sends cash and who does it. Maybe it's none of their business. But that's what people will say and that's why they're getting away with it. Well, you shouldn't send cash. Why are you people sending cash? None of your business. Why?

It doesn't, that's beside the point. I mean, yes, it's probably advisable to send a check or money order or whatever that can be traced. It would be fascinated to see what all they've taken, what all they've confiscated in this list. Tens of millions of dollars. Tens of millions of millions of money. And how many, I'd like to know the, you know, like if, you know, grandma and grandpa send their grandkids, you know, 100 bucks. They're not going to bother with that.

Probably, I would assume it's larger amounts than that. If they get a hit on the cash, though, package gets thrown into the confiscation bag. Could. You could. And it's just wrong. I mean, even if you are doing it for criminal reasons, it is the requirement of the government to prove you have committed this crime in a court of law before they can just start

taking crap from you. Right. Like that is even if your answer is actually, you know, the reality is I was going to try to sell buy some drugs with it. Unless they prove that, they can't take your money. But for whatever reason, we've decided as a country that this is okay.

It is completely at odds with our system of government. Un-American. It's completely un-American. It is, it's like you're going back to Czechoslovakia. It is. It's not how this is supposed to go. No, it is not. A lot of people on the right, too, support this.

I mean, there's a lot, because it's tied into. Oh, yes. Or at least he did. He did. I haven't heard of talk about it in a long time. He had the big roundtable of sheriffs and they talked them into, you know, civil asset forfeiture was a great thing and how good it was helping. I can't imagine he even is aware of stuff like this.

Honestly, it's not something he's talked about a lot. And obviously, he's pro-law enforcement. And look, law enforcement makes these arguments. And they are in some ways correct with the arguments, which is it is. it is a heck of a lot easier to throw a drug dealer in prison when you can just do this stuff. Right? And it is.

Yes. It is easier. It is easier. That is not the goal. The goal is not to make it easier to throw people in prison and take this stuff. Isn't it the easiness clause? The easiness clause is there. It's the 304th amendment to the Constitution.

We should make everything easy for the government to do. And that's Joe Biden's been taking advantage of that. The EZILA has student loans and no one will pass it. Yeah. And so therefore, do it. The easiness clause is used all the time by our government, but it's actually not part of the Constitution. Triple-A-7-27-B-E-C-K. More in one minute. NMLS-182334, NMLS Consumer Access.org.

It's Americanfinancing.com. 10 seconds, station ID. How do you feel about geo-fencing warrants? that's another issue that I have with what's going on right now that's un-American.

I mean, this is incomprehensible. The things that our government is doing right now, law enforcement-wise, that just are unconstitutional. And a federal appeals court just ruled that geoffence warrants are unconstitutional. Now, if they would do the same thing with the civil asset forfeiture, that would be a really good step in the right direction. but the Friday ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals in the Fifth Circuit, which covers Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, found that geo-fence warrants are categorically prohibited by the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unwarranted searches and seizures. This is where they just take like the cell tower and take all the records from the cell phone usage in that area. So people that have just passed through that area have made a phone call, they become part of the search. Well, a lot of these people don't belong in your search.

And so that's the problem there, that they're just scooping up everybody in this thing. That's a general warrant. It's specifically once again what we were trying to prevent in the Constitution. Exactly. There was a case a while ago that we talked about when it was just brand new. there was some guy that biked past a house. This was in the Midwest somewhere, but he biked past this house every day

and made phone calls while he was biking to whoever. And so the house was eventually robbed, and the resident, who was an elderly woman, was hurt during the robbery. And so they went in and did this geofencing warrant and just got the records of everybody who had made phone calls or who had been in that area. And he was one of them. So they were charging him with the crime because circumstantially he was there all the time.

He must have been casing the joint. Well, you're making kind of a leap there because people do jog, people do bicycle, people do make calls in certain areas. And that doesn't mean they've committed a crime in that area. That's true. That is true. Well, this, and of course, sometimes you can tell, right? Like, I mean, this was essentially the Fannie Willis defense, remember, with the guy she was sleeping with? And they had like 12,000 calls.

Oh, yeah. He was over there at like 2 a.m. 25 times. And it's like, well, they're like, it's a very busy area. There's a shopping center nearby. Oh, yeah, he was just probably shopping at 2.34 a.m. on a Tuesday. Uh-huh. Happens all the time. And, like, you know, in those investigations, when you have someone, you can use.

those records, that's very common with law enforcement. Just collecting everybody who comes by an area is not common. It's not the way to go. It should not be the way to go. Now, you know, the interesting thing about this particular case where the Fifth Circuit ruled that the geoffence warrants were unconstitutional, the guy that brought

the case, yeah, he's still guilty. Because the court said, yeah, the police department acted in good faith. Oh, good. That's nice. They didn't even real. Geofencing was a novel idea back then. The police didn't really know what they were doing. So he won the case, but he lost the case.

He's still guilty. That's unbelievable. I mean, that is unbelievable. There's a lot of that stuff going on right now. Yeah. It's just like you keep saying, Glenn keeps saying like, gosh, I never thought I'd see the day when this happened. And it's like, it just keeps, you keep saying that enough. And suddenly.

Yeah. Like, I've eliminated out of my vocabulary the phrase, unless something crazy happens. Because I've said it so many times. And then something crazy always happens. Like, you could say, it's a very close. close race in the presidential race right now, and it probably will be close unless something crazy happens. And then like there's an assassination attempt and a presidential candidate drops out and they just implant somebody into the nomination and like crazy stuff will happen.

You know what else? Because they respect democracy so much. That's true. I love democracy. Why they just implanted somebody. You know, the other thing that we've stopped saying, and for, you know, good reason, but when we first all moved to the great state of Texas, And this happened in Texas. Yeah, I don't say that anymore. No one says that anymore. Yeah. It's too common.

Way too common to say that anymore. It's sad. It is. But true. Really sad. I mean, we might be one of the last vestiges of freedom in the country. Absolutely. It's still freer than many other places, but not like it used to be.

We're going through the details of a story and trying to figure it out. Exactly.

It's a very bizarre one. But we wanted to bring it to your attention. Because it kind of, I don't know, ties into what we've been talking about this hour, these crazy things that are happening in our country that don't seem possible. Right? Like, in America, we'd have things like this go on. But they seem to be more and more common by the day. So there's a story of, and I'm going to let Jeffrey set this up because he's the one

with it in front of him. But it's a story about Disney and a lawsuit that's going on right now, which involves a trip to a restaurant and some allergies and one of the craziest arguments you've ever heard. So in October of- You got to turn your microphone on. I don't have- No, thank you. They don't allow me to touch a button.

Understandable. I agree with that. I understand that. So in October of 2023, this Canoco Porn Tang Song, her husband, Jeffrey Pickle, and Piccolo's mother dined at this Irish pub at Disney Springs. And they dined there because they believed that it would have proper safeguards against serving dairy and nuts to Tangsun due to her allergies. And they were guaranteed that the food would be made allergen-free.

They asked the waiter several times. When the food came out, some of the food didn't have the allergen-free flags on it. And they said, hey, it doesn't have the allergen-free. free flags on it. And the waiter said, no, it's fine. Don't worry about it. Wow. And so that was a problem, which put her into anaphylaxic shock,

elevated levels of dairy and nuts in her system. And that's what caused her to die. So she dies over this. Wow. Now, this to me, and Jeffrey was sort of disagreeing with this off the air, but this to me sounds like one of those instances that they have a pretty freaking good case. Right?

Like, they came there, they went to a restaurant specifically to avoid these Allergens. They made points about it. They brought it up. They came out with the flags. They said, hey, there's no flag in this food. Is this allergen free?

And the waiter says yes. I mean, if that is true, that is, and then the person dies over it, that is a, that is a worthwhile lawsuit in my view. Right. Right. Now, Disney is trying to get out of this. This is what's incredible, I think, about this story more than anything else. By saying that Jeffrey Piccolo, the husband, had signed up.

for one month trial of the streaming service Disney Plus, which require trial users to arbitrate all disputes with the company. So is that, but is that disputes over Disney Plus or is that over food allergy? They're saying the whole thing. That covers everything. Anything related. Everything in life.

They also claim that because Piccolo used the Walt Disney Park's website to buy Ebcott Center tickets. Disney is shielded from a lawsuit from the estate of Piccolo's deceased wife. My gosh. I mean, this is, first of all, disgraceful by Disney, which is, of course, their motto at this point. We will be more disgraceful tomorrow than we were today. That seems to be the way they're going at this point.

But, I mean, for all the freaking money they bring in, to not help a family that you basically murdered at your park. because they signed up to Disney Plus a few months before. I don't even think it was before. I mean, I feel like... I think it was 2019, I think, was the sign up, if I'm correct. Oh, yes, yes, that's correct. In 2019, the guy signs up for a one-month subscription to Disney Plus, a trial,

not even the full subscription, a trial subscription. And they bought tickets. And then they bought tickets online. And you just click on these things. You click, I agree to the terms and conditions. You don't look at them. Nobody does. No one does.

No one does. You just want to take the picture with the app on my phone. I don't care what you want me to do. Just let me take the picture. And they put you in that position. And then, of course, you just click OK. Yeah. You click, I agree.

And God only knows what you're agreeing to. There was a documentary that came out, I think it was 2013 or so called terms and conditions may apply. And that's what it was about, about all the things that you agree with. Now, we know how much worse it is now that it was in 2013. I can't even imagine what that. the sequel of this would look like. But they highlighted a bunch of different stories like this. And the most, the craziest one, which was kind of just funny, was a company, I think it was a

software company that put in, you know, by signing up to this, you agree to be launched into space into the sun and to be burned to Chris. Like it was saying this whole, this whole thing that was just stuck in there. Every single person, like no one called them out on it. Every person agreed. Yeah, I agree to be launched into the sun. I agree. Because we just want to take the picture.

It's one over with. use the app. I just wanted to work. Make it work. Please. Make it work. Yes. Take my children. Take it all. I just want it to work. Yes. Yes. And that's where people are. I get a seven-day free trial out of it. Yes.

I'm in. Fine. I'm in. Just do it. I don't care if I have to pay a thousand dollars a month for the rest of my life. I'm just going to do it. And this sounds insane, but then you remember that one of the most popular apps in the world is run by the Chinese Communist Party, TikTok. And we're like, yeah. Yeah, whatever. But the funny videos. You can spy on me in my nation.

We already know how bad that app is, what information continues to go back to the head of TikTok. Yeah, the head of TikTok. Who's definitely keeping it separate, separate, totally separate, even though we know it's not separate. Allegedly, allegedly, we should point out. But, you know, I really want to see that woman, you know, dance. I got to buy the bag of rocks. She's got that funny dance she's doing in lip-syncing at the same time. We've got to have that.

And we've got to have the new food hack of the day. We've got to see that. Yeah. You know, that's really important. So who cares if the Chinese government gets more power? What's the problem with that? Whatever. No big deal.

No big deal. It's a weird. I mean, it's also goes back to the fact that we just don't trust anybody. Right. That's, yeah. We don't. Nor should we right now. Well, we shouldn't trust anybody.

We have mega corporations telling us that they, screwed up and killed someone. And we're not going to pay you because, poof, you signed up for our app. Yeah. For Disney Plus. Sorry. Man, we want to give you. We'd love to give you more than $50,000, but says right here we don't have to. Right. And it's so bizarre because like we have the simultaneous. We don't trust the media. We don't trust our elections. We don't trust our government. We don't trust any of our institutions. But we, we absolutely trust every app that we sign up to that they're not putting something bad in the terms and conditions. Right. Like, it's insane. It's insane. Speaking of this, there's a new story out from the Wall Street Journal that broke last night

that is supposedly the real story of what happened with the Nord Stream pipeline. Oh, where they discuss how the United States blew up that pipeline? No, that's not what the story is. That's not what it says? No, I mean, the U.S. is involved in the story. In what way? Just we didn't do it, though. No, in fact, not only did we even though.

Even though Joe Biden said we were going to do it. He did say that. He did basically say that. Russia invades. That means. tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine again

then there will be there will be no longer on our steam too we will bring it into it you'll bring it into it wait but how will you how will you do that? I love that question but wait wait how will you

do that exactly exactly since the project and control of the project is within in Germany's control. We will, I promise you we'll be able to do it. Oh. Oh, okay.

Huh. And then it was done. It was done. But we didn't do it. We didn't do it. Coincidence. All right. Well, good.

What an amazing coincidence that is. What happened? So what happened? So what happened was. Is this the Serbians again? No. No. No.

No. It wasn't the Serbs? No. The Croats. How about the Croats? Is that who did this? Here's what I will say about the story. The Bosnians.

The story is... The Hertz of Govineans. Yeah, well, maybe. The Houthis. The Inagata Divinians. The Houthis. Oh, the Houthis. The Houthis and the Blowfishes.

They did it. The Houthis and the Blobhishis? Oh, wow. That sounds terrible. That sounds terrible. So what I will say about the story, it is absolutely unbelievable. And so that can go two ways. It can be, when you say, sometimes you say a story is unbelievable.

That just means it's amazing. Right. An incredibly amazing story. It could be that. It also could be absolutely unbelievable as if you should not believe it in any way. It's one of the two. All right. You make the call.

But basically what happened was a bunch of people went out to a bar. This is true. This is really what they're saying happened. A bunch of people went out to a bar. Who are these people? Where are they from? They're Ukrainian. Some of them were Ukrainian citizens.

Okay. Some of them were military members of Ukraine. Okay. And they were around a bar. They got hammered. They started talking about what they should do because they just got invaded by. by Russia. And they said, you know, what we should do is we should blow up that pipeline because all this

money is going back to Russia all the time. That's wrong, obviously. They just invaded us. We need to stop them from getting all the money. Bastards. So what if we severed the pipeline? Oh, and that's easy to do. Right?

Anybody can't. We just hanging out at a bar drinking. You just hop in your car. Yeah. And you just drive down to the ocean and then you just do a little. Well, I know. You didn't let me finish. You didn't let me finish.

Okay. They took deep sea diving lessons. Of course. I swear to you, this is in the story. Did not happen that night. They got hammered and they brought this, apparently, this idea to Vladimir Zelensky. Okay. Who agreed to it.

All right. Oh. So this is a, the country's comedian leader. Comedian in chief. Yeah. He agreed to this and said it was a good idea. Then the Danish, not the breakfast food. The Danish.

The Danish. The Danish. Danish. intelligence from Danes. From Daneland. You know, the windmill people. The windmill people. Formerly Holland, now the Netherlands. Now the Leatherlands. But they're somehow Danish. Or maybe it was Denmark. It was one of the two. It was one of them two. Maybe it was the Dutch. It was one of the the Dutch. I don't know. I get the Danes and the Dutch. Whatever what it was. Okay. All right. Their intelligence, their intelligence uncovered this plot. Or the Dutch.

All right. They uncovered this plot and they told the CIA about it. Oh. Okay. So we didn't have knowledge of this happening. But the CIA. The CIA said, no, don't do it. And went to Zelenskyy and said, whatever you do, don't do this. Did the pinky promise that this is how it went down? Because if the CIA pinky promised, I believe it. Okay, that's good. Okay.

I don't know if there's a pinky promise that we'll have to check on that. So the CIA then went to Zelensky and said, don't do it. Don't do it. Zelensky said, okay, knowing that, of course, we are, their money bags, said, okay, fine, we won't. Tried to cancel it. Oh, no. But the thought was already underway. The phone lines were down.

Could not get them. So the deep sea diving lessons didn't take that long, apparently. No, it did. It took months, apparently. Oh, it did. So this is legitimately what they're saying happens. Did you stop thinking that it just happened overnight? Yes.

Unreal is a good word. Unreal is a good word for this. Okay. It will either be the most incredible movie of all time when it happens. No kidding. Because after they have this drinking thing, they pitch this all around. They get a few military members, but not all military members because they don't want it to be obvious. When they rent a yacht.

and go out on a yacht with six people. Six people on a yacht. Three of them just regular citizens. This is months later, though, after all the training. Right. Including one woman who took diving lessons to make it look like, well, this can't be a terrorism or a sabotage operation. Because this woman's there and she's just diving.

Way to throw them off the track. That's really smart. Put a woman in there. It can't be up to no good. Then they go and take a trip across. the water and stop in various places where the pipeline is under, which they use maps like available online. They go down, they deep sea dive down all the way to the pipeline on themselves.

Only six people on a yacht. They go down there. They put explosives on there. Then they blow the thing up. They leave. They make a mistake when they leave. Oh, no. Yeah, they made a mistake.

Oh, wow. Which was they did not wash the boat out. So they left their fingerprints and they were caught. So now they know who it was. And now some of the people were admitting and talking to the Wall Street Journal and saying that, yes, this was us. One of the guys was a high-level German or excuse me, Ukrainian general. And if you will remember, he was recently relieved of his duties out of nowhere. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that was why? That was why. I mean, that's the thought. It's not they didn't admit that, but this is the thought, is that they knew they were, he was about to get caught. And he was responsible for this plot. So they took him out of circulation as one of the big military guys. Because now you have a situation, and in all seriousness, if this is true, right, you have a situation where Germany was dumping billions of dollars into this war on Ukraine's behalf.

And this plot, which ruined their economy, was actually taken out at some level of agreement in the Ukrainian government and military. So they're a little pissy about it right now. if it's actually true. Well, they should be a pissy it because Joe Biden said he was going to get rid of it too. I know. Did he do it? But he didn't. He didn't.

It was the Ukrainians. Russia invades. Yeah. That means tanks or troops crossing the border. We know what that means. The border of Ukraine. Definition of an invasion. There will be no longer.

No. We will bring it into it. Oh. There you go. But we didn't. Now. Because a bunch of drunk Ukrainians. Junk Ukrainians and a woman.

A woman diver, female diver. Okay. Let me tell you about American hero named Mario Nelson. Mario was a member of the National Guard, and when 9-11 happened, he volunteered to help with the recovery efforts over at Ground Zero. That alone makes him a hero. But it didn't stop there. He later joined the U.S. Army and was deployed to Iraq, where unfortunately he was killed in action at the age of only 26. Thanks to the support of people like you, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation provided a mortgage-free home to Mario's wife and daughter, because they were going through a dark enough time.

without having to think about how to keep a roof over their heads. This is what the Tunnel to Towers Foundation does. They honor the legacy of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice or those who have been catastrophically injured while serving our country and our communities. So please do good in honor of heroes like Mario, heroes who put their lives on the line for our country, our communities, and the freedoms we all enjoy.

Okay The mate was a mighty sailing man The skipper Brave and sure. Wow. Well, these five passengers set sail that day on a three-hour tour. Okay. Well, they eventually dropped anchor.

They didn't know this right above the Nord Stream two pipeline. Really? Wow. And the anchor was so long and so heavy that it smashed into it. Oh, that's what happened. And completely destroyed it. Yeah. Yeah.

I think there's been some charges on that too. There have been. Yeah, there was the skipper to the millionaire and his wife have been charged. A movie star, I believe. The professor. A. And Mary Ann, yes, she was the truth. All of them charged on the Nord Stream, too.

So, yeah. Just as believable is the story you just told us about the Ukrainian. Maybe more believable. Maybe more believable.
