So let me give you a little update on the CDC and the mask mandate. Now, you might ask yourself, Glenn, why are people having a problem taking the vaccine. Well, because, oh, I don't know, we're not talking about if you've had COVID and you already have the antibodies for the first time. Nobody even is addressing that. Does that play a role at all? I've already had it. We're not talking about anything really reasonable. It feels at this time. You're only being belittled. You're being lectured to. Nobody's sitting. down and having conversation saying, look, I understand what the thing. Nobody's doing that.
Starting point is 00:04:45 It was a, a massive push. They lied to us from the beginning on the masks, on the 15 days, on all of it. And now with this new Delta variant, which seems less lethal, we're being told we have to start all over again. No, I don't think so. No. Uh-uh. I won't. Now, will you take the vaccine? You know what?
Starting point is 00:05:17 If you would have asked me that, even Biden would have asked me that six months ago, I would have said, you know, of course I am. No, no, not now. I don't trust them. Everybody is acting so weird. And when they refuse to answer normal questions, I feel uncomfortable about it.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Now, I still trust the vaccine. I don't think there's chips in it. But I just don't like the way they're behaving. Now, that's just the way I feel. But when they start to do things like, for instance, what the CDC did on Tuesday, this doesn't help. Listen to this story. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cited an unpublished study from India to justify
Starting point is 00:06:09 its recommendation on Tuesday that fully vaccinated people wear a mask in public indoor settings in areas of substantial or high transmission of COVID-19. Now I want you to watch for this because this was a Woodrow Wilson
Starting point is 00:06:27 thing. Experts. He said it was time to listen to the scientists and the experts. We couldn't have a represented Republic anymore because the things we're getting way too complex and we'll just hire a bunch of experts to tell us what we need to do and they'll guide society that's exactly what is happening notice every time fouchy is questioned on it something he says peer reviewed peer reviewed well that's what the CDC said here's this study from india that says we really need to have in
Starting point is 00:07:05 indoor settings, you have to wear a mask. Peer reviewed, peer reviewed, peer reviewed. Well, the study claimed the Delta variant produced an unusually large viral load in more than 100 vaccinated health care workers with breakthrough infections. Here's the problem. When the peers did review it for the journal Nature, they rejected it. the archives of the study's page on Research Square, a pre-print server for unpublished research, shows that this was marked reject on July 9th and remain so at least through the evening of July 26th,
Starting point is 00:07:51 Eastern Daylight Time. So when the CDC said, well, this peer reviewed, we were using this study and that's why we're doing it. you know, science, science, science, peer reviewed, peer reviewed. That had been rejected. The reject status and the review notes were removed by the next morning. So the CDC sides it, and then what they do is they take the reject status off and all of the review notes, all of the peer reviews, they took all of those away by mid-morning the next day and replaced it with posted, suggesting that the paper had been accepted without any revisions.
Starting point is 00:08:39 Now, a few smart people got on to Twitter and it was like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. And because of that, the notes were restored and the status was changed to revise. It said rejected. But then they put revised bearing the same date July 9th. So they are making it look like on July 9th. They just said revise when actually all the peers said reject. Now here's what they, here's what they said the problem was. There was a bug and a user interface error on our end.
Starting point is 00:09:25 And that's what happened. It was just a bug. And I know that happens all the time, all the time, you know, where a document can be found, but one word will be changed. You know, how many times does that happen to you, Stu? All the time. All the time. All the time.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Now, the CDC director, Rochelle Walinski, remember, that's the woman from Pennsylvania, who's got just a buttload of credibility with me. You remember? You know who I'm talking about? That's not Rochelle Walensky. You're talking about the... Isn't she? You're talking about the wonder...
Starting point is 00:10:06 The person whose gender might be questioned by some. Now, that's a different lady. That's a different man lady. Okay. All right, good. Well, then she said, fully vaccinated people have just as much viral loads as the unvaccinated, making it possible for them to spread the virus to others, which is why children should wear masks in schools. Dan Crenshaw said, uh, shut up.
Starting point is 00:10:30 Was that a quote? Yeah, well, he said the game changer data for CDC used for the mask mandate is from a single study from India. The study was rejected in peer review, but the CDC used it anyway? No. And I would also add, I haven't seen this around in some of the reporting on this, but India is not even using. They literally have no vaccine use in their country. that is an American vaccine. They don't, they've been using the Russian vaccine.
Starting point is 00:11:06 They've been using an Indian vaccine. And they've been using AstraZeneca. But they don't use Pfizer. They don't use Johnson and Johnson. And the Moderna one, they just approved like last week, which, so they haven't started using it yet. So this study was done on people who aren't even using the vaccines that we use here. Like, I mean, that is a, that's kind of a big.
Starting point is 00:11:30 detail. This is why people don't want the vaccine. This is not, you can't claim science, science, science, science, science. You can't say that. And then give something that was rejected in peer review. I don't think there's any reason, though, that this would make, this is, this isn't even about vaccines, right? This is about masks. Right. But it's about the credibility on all of it. You know, once you lie to me about other stuff, I'm going to believe you about this. When do I know you're telling them? the truth. I do not think you should get the vaccine based on your trust of Anthony Fauci or
Starting point is 00:12:05 Rochelle Walensky. You should get the vaccine because it's been shown to work over and over and over and over and over. Sure. So there's, but you're right. Like they have no credibility on this stuff. They changed their guidance every two days. I mean, every two days, there's a new thing that you're supposed to do that yesterday they told you you weren't supposed to do. Or in this case, now they're restricting us more after they said it was okay to go around and have the vaccine and do what you used to do go around do live your life as it used to be see and again is it this dangerous that we all have to be corralled is it this dangerous now listen to listen to this who is telling us that you are killing people if you walk around and you're unvaccinated
Starting point is 00:12:53 and not wearing a mask. Who's telling us that? The United States government is telling us that and the media, right? Sure. Biden is all over that. You're a killer if you're doing this. Border officers have been releasing illegal immigrants who have tested positive for COVID-19 into the Rio Grande Valley in Texas.
Starting point is 00:13:17 It's amazing. We didn't know this. No one told the city of La Jolla. this is the police department saying this, no one told us that these people were possibly ill. The border officers had been releasing illegal immigrants into Catholic charities of the Rio Grande Valley, which had put them up into a hotel that they had rented out.
Starting point is 00:13:38 La Jolla is a southern city in the Texas border with Mexico. The information we have is that everybody is staying in that hotel. Is COVID-19 possible? Officers say they witnessed a group of 20 to 30 people staying at the hotel, most not wearing masks. A county judge, Richard Cortez, called on federal immigration officials to stop releasing infected migrants into our community. In one week, border agents in the area apprehended more than 20,000 illegal immigrants.
Starting point is 00:14:11 We also know now that there was a massive cover-up at Fort Bliss, where the government made every effort to keep the extent of COVID-19 outbursts. outbreak under wraps. The allegations about the Texas base were made in a whistleblower complaint filed Wednesday by career federal civil servants who volunteered at the Fort Bliss facility between April and June of this year. COVID, quoting, COVID was a widespread problem among children and eventually spread to many employees, reads the complaint.
Starting point is 00:14:46 It was initially obtained by Fox. hundreds of children contracted COVID in the overcrowded conditions. Adequate masks were not consistently provided to children, nor was it consistently enforced. Then it goes on to say how these kids were treated. I mean, it's a horror show. It's a horror show. The same people who are telling us that we have to mask up, we have to change our life, we're going to kill people.
Starting point is 00:15:16 they're releasing thousands of people thousands, tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people that are coming across our border who have tested positive, have it, and they're releasing them all over the country. inexcusable. Inexcusable in every way.
Starting point is 00:15:36 It's the same way it was inexcusable when they said the George Floyd protests were okay because racism was more of a health issue than the pandemic. like these are there's no way to believe the propaganda that they they put out there none so I understand why people would be would not want to listen to any of this stuff yeah and I think look the good thing here is the CDC changed these recommendations we may see more obviously as you point out like these things may escalate but like has any state put in a statewide mask mandate since this no federal government is federal government is something that's
Starting point is 00:16:13 Biden controls. But have you flown on airlines lately? Yeah, yeah. I mean, if I, I've never been told I was going to prison more than when I was on a, was on an airplane. And I don't know how much you flew because I flew when Donald Trump was president during the pandemic as well. And that this stuff's all new with Biden. It's all new. Biden changed all of this stuff. The, the threatening tone, the, when you're eating,
Starting point is 00:16:36 it's pull your mask down, take a bite and then put your mask back up and chew. They actually say that on the, on the announcements. Horrible. from the flight deck, which is just embarrassing. I mean, you're treating us like children. And the rest of America is done with it.
Starting point is 00:16:52 But I tell you, Chip Roy channeled a lot of America. I'm going to get to that in one minute. Rough Greens. Leslie lives in Washington State. Really? And you listen to us? Do you listen in your basement and keep it a secret?
Starting point is 00:17:07 Anyway, she writes in about her dog's experience with Rough Green. She says, when my Rough Green's order arrived, I was excited to see what it could do for my two dogs. They both love it. Shiloh is a mastiff lab and can be a little picky. Well, you can when you're a mastiff. But no more.
Starting point is 00:17:24 Both she and Liam are Greyhound will be seven soon, and both of them are showing signs of being more active and healthier now. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Leslie, those aren't dogs. Those are giant wolves or possibly miniature horses. But I'm glad that they like rough greens. and that it's helping with their energy and their health. That's exactly what it's supposed to do.
Starting point is 00:17:46 That's what it's done for Uno, my German Shepherd, who is nine. And it is a beautiful, beautiful thing to see. Rough greens. Not a dog food. It's something you sprinkle on the dog food. It's a supplement filled with all the things that make your dog healthier and happier. And you can get a free trial bag of rough greens for your dog just to try out, make sure that they like it and will eat it.
Starting point is 00:18:06 All you pay for is shipping. If they eat it, then order the full bag of rough greens. and watch your dog over the next couple of months. It's roughgreens.com slash Beck. Roughgreens.com slash Beck. Call 833 Glenn 33. 833 Glenn 33. Call them now. 10 seconds. Station ID.
Starting point is 00:18:32 I don't know the last time. I was standing with somebody and wish I could have been there cheering them on as much as I was yesterday for Chip Roy. He channeled. exactly how many Americans are feeling when he stood up in the House of Representatives yesterday and said this. What we're seeing at the border is an absolute travesty. And yet my colleagues on the other side of the aisle are going to do nothing.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Literally nothing about that today. Even as we see people spilling across the border who are clearly testing positive for COVID, we have a hotel in La Jolla, Texas that is literally filled right now with individuals who are heavily testing positive for COVID. These are the facts on the ground. And I know my friend, the speaker, knows how bad it is at the border, knows how bad it is in Laredo, knows how bad it is in Del Rio, knows how bad it is in McAllen.
Starting point is 00:19:33 I've got a text here from a sheriff in a small Texas town saying, we're passing an emergency declaration tonight at city council that no illegal immigrants can be released in the city of Evaldi, per the CDC guidelines of countries on their list without a negative COVID test, and we have had our health authority, write orders that give us the authority to have them government, border patrol, and immigrant quarantine for 10 to 14 days. We have a crisis at our border, and we're playing footsy with mask mandates in the people's house.
Starting point is 00:20:02 I mean, it's absolutely absurd what this body is doing, the people's house. It's an embarrassment. It's a mockery. And the American people are fed up. They want to go back to life. They want to go back to business. They want to go back to school without their children being forced to wear masks, to be put in the corner to have mental health issues. And we're running around here and the speaker
Starting point is 00:20:20 comes down here at 10 o'clock in the morning saying we got to wear masks into people's house. While we've got thousands of people pouring across our border and Democrats don't do a darn thing about it, heavily infected with COVID. We have the New York Times. Okay, today. What a mess. CDC about to reverse on indoor masking for the vaccinated, quote unquote. This is some serious nanny state stuff that will only breed resentment. No kidding. consider resentment being magnified right here in the floor of the House of Representatives. We are absolutely sick and tired of it, and so are the American people. This sham of an institution is doing nothing for the American people,
Starting point is 00:21:01 nothing for the betterment of the people that send their representatives here. I just met this morning with an organization that tries to take care of people from human trafficking, met with an elected official from Mexico, while cartels are raping and pillaging and killing. And we have people infected with COVID coming across our southern border into Texas. And you all put masks? Masks up front here, here on the people's house? We got to go around and see, okay, we can't come to the floor.
Starting point is 00:21:31 I can't execute my constitutional duty unless I wear a mask. Which is it? Vaccines or masks? The vaccines work or they don't work? Do the masks work so they don't work? I'd like to know which it is. I'd like Dr. Fauci to come down and answer a single. question about natural immunity.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Have you been infected with the virus? Do you have immunity? Or are they just going to go around poking people saying you must take a vaccine? Oh, but sorry, the vaccine doesn't work. You must wear a mask. This institution is a sham, and we should adjourn and shut this place down. I got to tell you. I have to tell you, you know who that sounds like?
Starting point is 00:22:09 Charles Sumner. That is, he was, Charles Sumner stood up and said, you're not serious about stopping slavery. You are putting on an act every day here. You say you care, but you don't care. And I'm not standing for it anymore. That is a Charles Sumner moment without the beat down. Thank goodness.
Starting point is 00:22:38 We are getting closer and closer to an impasse. and I think it's intentionally being done to us. Be a peacemaker. But tell the truth.

The oldest young man I know is John Ziegler.
Starting point is 00:24:29 And I say that he's the oldest young man I know because he is the guy. And I bet he was this way at 15. Get off my lawn, you punks. John Ziegler is with us now. Hi, John. How are you? You know, my wife would agree with you. Yes, I know.
Starting point is 00:24:45 You're an 80-year-old man in like a 30-year-old body. I don't know what happened. By the way, let me just say off the top here that, In the spirit of Simone Biles, if this interview doesn't go well for me, I do reserve the right to quit. I expect you all to call me a hero at the end of the show. Yeah. My gosh. That's brave, John. Give me your thoughts on that quickly.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Did in their remarkably short about a time. I think that it's a contagion. I think we saw it with Ozaka, and I think that when people get rewarded for failure, they tend to go for failure more often. I mean, it's now actually a symbol of woke virtue to quit. I mean, I'm not suggesting that she has no mental issues, but it's just astonishing to me the response. It's okay that she did that, but to call her a hero and brave and a role model, it's just absurd, and I think that there are incredible ramifications for this.
Starting point is 00:25:45 You don't think that young kids are going to look at that and quit more quickly sometime in the future? Oh, yeah. It's unbelievable. It used to be that when you were brave when you sucked it up and you just did it, you know? Well, every sports movie in the history of Hollywood has just to have been destroyed. I mean, or is that going to be the future sports Hollywood movie? The glory of at the end of the movie, you will be glorified on Twitter for having quit. That'll be the final scene.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Yeah, I'd like to see the pride of the Yankees, where he gets the diagnosis is like, and he just goes home and whines to his wife and quits. It's funny, it's funny, Glenn, but I'm a big believer as you are. The culture has completely shifted in a remarkable amount of time, and it's very scary, and it has incredible ramifications, especially for our kids. I have two young daughters, and I'm very depressed about the whole thing. Are you, well, let's get to COVID quickly, because I've got a few other questions for you. You just wrote an article about the much-needed perspective on the rising, COVID cases.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Can you give us the stuff that the media is not giving the American people? Well, from the beginning of this, I have said that the biggest mistake, and it's probably been on purpose, that the so-called experts have made, is that they have shifted the metrics, the data metrics from hospitalizations and deaths to proposed positive test results. And we all know the test is fraudulent. It's not reliable. they've admitted that themselves. But before the vaccines, Glenn, there was at least a semblance, a semblance of rationality to that,
Starting point is 00:27:31 because if you tested positive, there was about a 2% chance you were going to die. Now, you know, that's a very bad situation. I've never believed that that was an emergency. We're calling for a free society to end the entire premise of our being. But, okay, fine. But now that the vaccines exist and over 60% of the American people are at least somewhat vaccinated, if in fact they work, as we're told that they are, and I'm vaccinated, I believe that they work to at least some degree, then the entire premise of relying on new positive test results is completely absurd because there is no connection anymore,
Starting point is 00:28:10 especially with this particular delta variant to the notion that if you get this, you are going to die. We already know this from the United Kingdom statistics. And the statistics regarding deaths, which is what really should matter, and hospitalizations. Hospitalizations have gone up slightly. Deaths have not gone up at all, although I do believe deaths will go up slightly in the next couple of weeks. They are at the lowest levels they've been since the pandemic. I don't believe they're ever going to get anywhere close to what they used to be. The health care system is not going to get overwhelmed.
Starting point is 00:28:39 And as far as the statistics that get forgotten, Glenn, the one I like to rely on the most, and it's amazing that very, a few other people even focus on this, is excess deaths. Excess death is a fascinating statistic because the CDC tells you every week. How many people have died in comparison to how many people we would expect in their almost circumstances to die? I guarantee you that there's not one percent of the American people and probably not even less than that of the American media. They could tell you that the last time that America had 110 percent or more deaths in any particular week compared to what was expected was February. of this year. It has been less than 110% every single week since February of this year. Now, be clear, because I watch these stats very closely, it's not unusual in a normal week without COVID
Starting point is 00:29:30 for it to be 102, 103, 97, 98. There's a margin of error. A 110 is not that big of a deal. It's bad. It's what I would call a sucky situation, not an emergency. Suboptimally. Right. Right. Right. Since that has happened. And that was the entire basis at the beginning of this, the whole 15 days to slow the spread, that we were going to salvage our health care system and make sure that we didn't have the bodies in the streets. That never happened. It was never going to happen. And it's not going to happen now. If the people who are telling us we must get the vaccine actually believe in the vaccine,
Starting point is 00:30:05 and that's the most mystifying part of this whole thing, because the people that are most supposedly in favor of the vaccine don't seem to believe that they work. I know. It is crazy. It is crazy. They missed the train. When they said, you know, you got to get the vaccine. Oh, and you still have to wear the mask.
Starting point is 00:30:27 You're like, why would you get the vaccine then? Why would I do that? Well, Joe Biden lied about that. He lied about whether or not you can get COVID while vaccinated. And the idea that this media narrative is being formed now, that it's all unvaccinated people that are becoming testing positive. It's just flat out false. There's no evidence nor logic to support that.
Starting point is 00:30:48 It's funny, the vaccinated group seem to think that there's communities of 100% unvaccinated people that are all straight among themselves. It's not the way the world works. It's not the way we live. I mean, it's completely absurd. Now, I believe that I would still hope that the vaccines work, but they do not stop you. It is now clear. They do not stop you from getting this or testing positive.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I have two close friends who were vaccinated. They just got it yesterday, and they're not feeling very well. But this is the reality of it. We're going to have to live with this. The death now of America as a free society, I believe will be this notion that somehow we can get to zero positive test results of a test. John, I said this in January of 2020, when, no, 2019, when it first started, I said, look. 2020. This is going to be a part of our lives for the rest of our lives. It's going to become like the flu. You're never going to get rid of it. You just minimize it as much as you can. Well, and we have. And unfortunately, though, Glenn, there are a lot of very powerful people who do not want this to end.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I know. And they really do not want this to end. And they wanted to end for reasons that aren't necessarily conspiratorial or, you know, in a room where they're all laughing. laughing, ha ha ha, ha, ha, we've were taking over the world type of thing. I mean, let's face it, I mean, these so-called health experts, their lives are much better today than they were when this began. They don't want this to end. If this ends, their relevance ends, they stop getting on television. No one cares what they have to say. And I'll tell you, a lot of liberals really, really love the ability to tell other people
Starting point is 00:32:35 how to live in their lives. Oh, yeah. And they'll tell you what a lot of them love to wear the masks, too, because it hides how ugly they are. that's okay all right so john let me switch the topic because i have uh larry elder coming on in just a few minutes what are your thoughts on gavin newsome and the recall and larry elder and the whole race well i mean i've been uh one of gavin newsom's strongest opponents from the beginning my my daughters on their own refer to him as governor pussum i i have said uh i've i've said from the beginning of this i would give a left pinky finger for him to be recalled i will up that
Starting point is 00:33:11 to a left testicle. Because after all, I'm married. I don't really need both of them. So I am vehemently in favor of the recall. He has made himself a king. That is not an exaggeration. That is a fact. And the media here is completely in the tank for his kingdom.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Unfortunately, I do not believe that we're going to get 50% to say yes on the recall. So therefore, Larry and others. Well, there's just too many Democrats. And this goes back to what we was talking about, Glenn, if the media was educating people properly to the statistics, and how wrong Gavin Newsom was. Gavin Newsom changed the world. Gavin Newsom, on a lie, declared an emergency and a shutdown in California.
Starting point is 00:34:01 He was the first to do so. He claimed that over 25 million Californians were going to get COVID in eight weeks. They even came remotely. It still hasn't happened a year and a half later. are not even close to that. He was totally wrong. It was a lie. He knew it.
Starting point is 00:34:19 He really should have known it was a lie. And he changed the world because when California did that, every left-wing governor had to follow, and then Rino governors followed after that. That's why we had the shutdown in America was because of Gavin Newsome. Unfortunately, the news media has backed him every step of the way. The average Californian has no idea that even made that prediction, that projection, or what the stats really say.
Starting point is 00:34:43 But wait, wait, wait, wait. It's more than just being wrong on COVID. He has destroyed that state. I mean, what he's doing to small businesses, I talk to people who are liberals out in California, and they're like, I can't take it. I can't take it. And the homeless problem, all of that,
Starting point is 00:35:03 nothing is going to change 50%. Well, when you start with, you've got to remember that Donald Trump, you're talking about a ridiculous level of definitely, Democrats, look, to me, I will say this. There's one issue that could change it, is the masking of children come September, which will be just before the recall election, which I'm bracing myself for my nine-year-old daughter to be masked again this year for absolutely no reason. Move. Well, I've got in-laws, Glenn, and let's still live here. So that would require divorce. But move.
Starting point is 00:35:42 But, so I don't, it's not impossible. It is not impossible. Newsom is still dumb enough to potentially blow this. But I have already written that I do not believe he will be recalled, and therefore it won't get to Larry. But look, God bless Larry, and good luck to him. And I would, my left testicle deal is still on the table. I'd be happy to give it up to get rid of Gavin Newsom in a heartbeat. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Well, I'd like to take your left testicle off of the table. now so we can move on and have a normal day. John Ziegler. It's always good to talk to you. Thank you so much. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. All right. It's nice to live in a country where you can do business with whomever you please. As of today. We should never lose sight of how important doing business with people that you want to do business with how important that is. Because it's not just an opportunity to seek the highest level of value or the lowest amount of money. we have a responsibility as holders of American values to seek to do business with companies who share those values. And when they also couple that with lower prices and the highest level of value, you find a company like Patriot Mobile and you switch.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Patriot Mobile has the broadest nationwide coverage. It uses the same cell towers as all the other major carriers so you get the same great cell coverage. They have plans to fit any budget. they are cheaper. They have a U.S.-based customer service team that has the highest rating among all wireless carriers. And more importantly, they share your values and they support organizations fighting for religious freedom, the Constitution, the Sanctity of Life, veterans, first responders. Doesn't that sound like a company you want to do business with?
Starting point is 00:37:33 Go to patriotmobile.com slashback. Why haven't you switched yet? Do it now. PatriotMobil.com slash Beck or call 972 Patriot. 972 PatriotMobil.com slash Beck. This is the Glenn Beck program. Larry Elder is coming on with us next. I love Larry. I think he is such a great communicator and strong conservative,
Starting point is 00:38:04 especially in California. And now he's running for governor. And it looks like he may have a chance. and he would, I think he would make a great governor. Yeah, I mean, I wanted Gray Davis to be recalled back in the day as well. And I remember there were other candidates I thought were a heck of a lot better than Arnold Schwarzenegger. But for California, you take it and you say, hey, at least he's not a communist. Larry, and, you know, he's changed.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Larry could be, Larry's legit. I mean, Larry could be Ronald Reagan. Yeah, he has been, you know, he's who he is. I mean, he's been a guy who has, who has been in this movement. who understands it, who understands how to communicate, who's lived a life, you know, he's gone through a lot of the struggles that people in California. He grew up in South Central, do you mean?
Starting point is 00:38:50 He's gone through some stuff. Yeah. He's overcome it. He is not like, you know, Schwarzenegger was like, hey, I guess kind of he's better. This would be not only a massive improvement, a miracle for California, but also the country.
Starting point is 00:39:05 I mean, California is such a big part of our economy. And so it does affect what happens in the rest of, of the country. I mean, Larry Elder in control of California is unthinkably great. It's not even something that I would consider possible, which is why I wouldn't have. In fact, when I first heard Larry was going to run, I was like, oh, that's not going to work out well. And then I started seeing the polls and I'm like, run, Larry, run. Yeah. I mean, he
Starting point is 00:39:31 has a, he has a real shot. It's really 50. It's 50-50 weather Newsom gets recalled right now. I think the latest poll was legitimately 50 to 47. the 50% saying keep him in, 47% say throw him out. That's the first hurdle you have to get through in this election. You have to get Newsom out.
Starting point is 00:39:49 But if you do that, the field is broken up a lot. And Elder is one of the most well known. He's incredibly competent and smart. And he will make a good impression, I think, on moderate Republicans and moderate Democrats as well as conservatives. The problem he's going to have is Eric Adams. Eric Adams is running. and he said,
Starting point is 00:40:12 I'm no longer running against candidates. I'm running against a movement. All across the country, the Democratic Socialists are mobilizing to stop Eric Adams. They realize that if I'm successful, we're going to start the process of gaining control of our cities. The left hijacked what it meant to be a progressive, did they? But anyway, he is trying to play to that common sense Democrat
Starting point is 00:40:38 who doesn't want to be a socialist. Yeah, so Eric, you're saying that someone from that movement essentially. Can hurt, yes. Somebody like him can peel away the common sense Democrats from somebody like Larry Elder. Yeah, is there someone like that in this race? I don't know. I don't know. That's interesting.
Starting point is 00:40:55 It'll be interesting to watch. I wonder what Elder's vibe of the field is, let alone what he would do for California, because that would be incredibly positive. All right. Back in just a minute with Larry. Elder. Hello, America. This is the part of the hour where I try to entice you to listen for the next hour.
Starting point is 00:41:20 I think I only need to say three words. Larry, Elder, next. Ah, summer break is coming to an end. That means back to the school, you know, where they're going to learn so many great things and the books that they're going to be assigned. Your kids will hate America and each other in no time. I'd like to suggest that they're going to get so much bad information and no real history that you can find a series of books that will actually teach these things that are good.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Good for America, good for them. It'll teach why the free market is better. And boy, that sounds dull. Really sounds dull. They are really good. And they're called the Tuttle Twins. and the Tuttle Twins and their adventures tell you all you need to know and teach true American history and the basic values that we have.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Now, Tuttle Twins books are available in bookstores, but you can find them right now at 35% off at Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. They'll even throw in all of their activity books for free. So buy them for yourself. buy them for the kids, buy them for the grandkids. Get Tuttle Twinsbeck.com. Go there now and get the Tuttle Twinsback.com.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Get 35% off right now. The host of the Larry Elder Show. And now a California gubernatorial candidate, Larry Elder, welcome to the program. Glenn, thank you so much for having me. I appreciate it. Yeah. I mean, Larry, I have to tell you, when I first saw, I just said this to Stu on air about 10 minutes,
Starting point is 00:43:16 ago. When I first saw that you were running, I was like, that's not going to work out well. Because, I mean, you could be Ronald Reagan, but you're in California. And then I start to see the poll numbers and you're ahead, almost double ahead of anybody else. You're out, you're out raising funds for anybody else who is in the race. And you have a legitimate shot here. And that would be game-changing for not only California, but for all of America. It will be game-changing for all of America for a number of reasons. You know, this critical, if you were just now talking about training white kids to believe they're oppressor victims.
Starting point is 00:44:05 People are saying, good enough, you have to make it they're going to be, I think. Elder, what is your experience? With governor of a lieutenant governor for eight, if and when he became, we've seen a rising crime, rising homelessness, declining quality of public schools, and the draconian way this man shut down the state. while violating the mandates with the draft of the mandates when he was sitting at that famous French laundry restaurant, not engaging in social distancing, not wearing a mask. Ronald Reagan came out of Hollywood. He didn't spend 27 years as I have up and down the state broadcasting.
Starting point is 00:45:04 I'm on every major market in California from Sacramento down to San Diego. I've been writing a syndicated column since April of 1998. It's carried in the largest newspaper in the valley here in L.A. It's carried in the largest newspaper in Orange County. I've been talking about issues like crime and homelessness and the outwrecked. ages cost of living for years. Ronald Reagan came out of Hollywood. Now, he, of course, with a student of William F. Buckley, began reading National Review, and at one time, he was a left-wing guy. I was never a left-wing guy. So you could make the argument that I'm even more prepared
Starting point is 00:45:33 to do this with Ronald Reagan. Well, I will tell you this, Larry, that Ronald Reagan started to write radio minutes, if you will, just like Paul Harvey. And that was explaining his philosophies. And I think that really helped sharpen him and also prepare the way. You've been doing it in a three-hour format every day. It came here in 1945 right after the war. He worked two full-time jobs cleaning my mother. And she stayed at home until the youngest of us was in middle school. South Central, L.A., we were the second black family in the neighborhood. Now the house is still in the family, Glenn. I just looked up on Zillow. It is now worth $600,000. No one with an eighth-grade dropout education, could follow my father's path to the middle class here in California,
Starting point is 00:46:35 if he or she worked three jobs, let alone two, and that's because virtually every development project, every housing project in California is stopped by the environmentalists who claim it's going to have an adverse environmental impact. That's why there's a shortage of housing in California. That's why for the first time in our nation's history, middle class people, I'm talking about people making between 50 and 100K are leaving California because they cannot get that first house. There's a magazine called CEO magazine. It's been around, for 17 years. And for 17 consecutive years, out of all the states, California has been determined to be the
Starting point is 00:47:07 worst state in which to do business based upon taxes, based upon regulations, based upon the anti-business attitude that this legislature will be a percent more than otherwise would be. And that's why people are leaving for the very first time. So what is the biggest, what is the biggest problem that you see the first thing that you would have to tackle in California? On Gavin Newsom, because it preceded him, but other than to the underlying reason why people on the streets in the first place.
Starting point is 00:48:14 Why are they on the streets in the first place? And put where? And put where? And I don't know how many. I think it's relatively small. People that just don't want to work. And if you just don't want to work, either you're going to go to jail as a vagrant or you're going to get a job. Mental problems ought to be treated. Now, what we've done in California, position 47, I think the voters were duped into doing it. And the idea was that some people who are stealing are stealing in order to support their meth habit or their heroin habit.
Starting point is 00:49:04 steal under $950 You don't go to jail You're not a felon You've committed a misdemeanor You get a ticket if you get caught Well, what the L.A. County tells me His name is Alex Viannaway But one of the people that I interviewed before
Starting point is 00:49:18 I got pulled off the radio Because of my FCC requirement Running for office He said, they've taken away our stick You have somebody on the street Who's stealing either you dry out in jail Or you dry out in rehab I tell them they're going to go to jail
Starting point is 00:49:35 Because they're not going to go to jail And you've seen all these videos Of people literally stealing in front of people Walking, walking out, not running, walking out. Be involved in that. Government can't solve this. We have missions in Orange County, for example, where they're getting people off the street, trying to give them some spiritual instruction. And that's what needs to happen. Now, I'm not at all saying that 100% of people
Starting point is 00:50:01 on the streets can somehow become computer software programmers at Apple. I don't believe that whatsoever, but you literally need to be removed from the street, and housing needs to be built for low-cost, low-cost housing, low-cost apartment. But we have no low-cost housing, no low-cost departments because of the environmental regulations I just now mentioned. So the private sector need to be unleashed to build the not by the public, and the Democrats want to do, is you haven't dealt with the underlying reason people there in the first place, A, B, they're not going to stay, and C, you're inviting other people to California where they're going to be treated with care and compassion as we should treat
Starting point is 00:50:58 every human being. And I might even be just telling me a whole bunch of people, even from California. We've incentivized people from the other states to come here. So whatsoever, he's not involving the churches. one of my mentors is a guy named Pastor Jack Hibbs. And he said, Larry, let us do it. Let us adopt a block, adopt a street, adopt an area. Let all the private sector is building low-cost housing.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Things I just now mentioned, I can eliminate this problem. So, Larry, one of the things that I think we all learned from Donald Trump was the system is so incredibly corrupt that there are career people that are just not, they don't care who the president is. Right. And they will work to thwart and destroy everything. The people elect somebody and put them in. They'll work to destroy that person. How are you going to deal with a Californian system of progressivism, socialism that is just bred now into the system? And I'm not deluding myself about that.
Starting point is 00:52:22 We have supermajorities in the lower chamber of government called the Assembly. supermajorities of Democrats in the upper chamber called the Senate, and talk about a deep state, particularly we have term limits. And I know a lot of Republicans like term limits. What it does is just strengthen the staffers and strengthen the special interest groups. The politician comes in, knows that he or she's only going to be there for a few years, actual interest. What I intend to do, if I have powers I have, even when dealing with the hostile California Environmental Quality Act, that essentially allows anybody to stop anything, some way, Glenn, the legislature is able to wait for that off the ground and go to these homeless places.
Starting point is 00:53:31 To Crenshaw High School, not read at state... Did you say how, what was that percentage? 75%. Oh my gosh. 50% cannot read at state school teachers in California. Minimum 5% of them are incompetent. That's 15,000 teachers.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Any given year, you know how many are fired? 10% officers who are bad, who are corrupt, planning evidence, using excessive force, engaging in racial profiling. We wouldn't put up with it. For a statewide emergency after just two years. And it takes almost an accident. are black and brown. These are the ones that the left claims that they care about. Gavin Newsom
Starting point is 00:54:51 shut down the schools. Again, the kids were already behind while his own kids were enjoying in speeches who know the schools the best. 39% to come eat the food. Yes. Nobody that works here eats here ever. All right. Larry Elder, more with him in just a second. I want to tell you about our sponsor, it's Raycon. If you are, if you're listening to anything with earbuds, I want you to try Raycons. I think you're going to going to love them. I hate. Well, I hate Apple for, oh, multiple reasons. You know, let's have everything made by slaves. What do you think? I don't think that's a really good idea. Hey, let's overcharge. Hey, let's never, ever supply long cords with any of our products. You know those kinds of things.
Starting point is 00:56:15 Their earbuds suck. But the good news on those, they're twice as expensive. as Raycons. Ah? Raycon, they don't suck. They're really comfortable. They don't fall out of your ears. They're not made by slaves. What do you say?
Starting point is 00:56:34 And half the price. They're great on sound. They last forever before a charge hours and hours and hours before the charge. And again, half the cost. Raycon offering 15% off all of their products. So save an additional 15%. here's all we have to do. You have to go to buy raycon.com slash Beck. Say 15% by doing this, buy raycon.com slash Beck. 10 seconds. Station ID. All right. Larry, I'm going to push back on one thing.
Starting point is 00:57:16 And I really do believe this is the only way you're going to be able to get things done. But it makes me very, very uncomfortable. You say I'm going to declare a statewide emergency. That suspends all kinds of laws. Now, I personally think a lot of those laws should be suspended. How do you rectify that or how do you balance that in your head being a conservative that I know believes in constitutional law? statewide emergencies to basically shut down the state. This is an emergency. I think this is an intervention. This is damage control.
Starting point is 00:57:57 We have not built enough homes in order for young people to buy that first home. That's why they're leaving California for the first time in our school. Can you give me some of those stats, Larry? about crime? Well, let me give you, let me give you one that'll be, Georgia. Iris pandemic has started. Now, what could possibly go wrong when statistically the majority of criminals who are released from prison are going to reoffend just a couple of days ago Barbara Boxer gets mugged for her cell phone in Oakland. And two days early, where he complained about the defund, the police movement, and how many millions were being diverted from the Oakland Police Department. I'm in Los Angeles, the million dollars from its
Starting point is 00:58:52 funds for so-called youth programs. Now, connect the dots. We need youth programs because these kids do not have fathers. Why don't they have fathers? Because the new vo liberal named Lyndon Johnson launched the so-called war on poverty and father-married to the mother. What we've done, the left has done, is incentivize women to marry the government and incentivize men to abandon their financial and moral responsibility. And forget about elder. Tides more likely to be poor and commit crime. Nine times more likely to drop out of school and 20 times more likely to end up in jail. So what things? Let's have a youth program for them. It's destroy the family. They're destroying schools. There is going up. And one in L.A., both of the
Starting point is 00:59:58 whom got there because George Soros, because they're not prosecuting people to the fullest. We have cashless bail in California. So what could possibly go wrong when you reduce the chance of a bad guy being caught, being convicted, being put in prison, crime goes up, and the people who are the very black and brown people living in the inner city that the left claim that they care about. So I'm going to declare a public emergency on crime, on housing, on relations that are stopped from doing their jobs, and that are causing the cost of living to go so high because you cannot build anything. One developer told me this, Glenn,
Starting point is 01:00:36 I had a 10,000 housing project. I got sued. I cut it down to 5,000. I got sued. I cut it down to 1,000. I got sued. Finally, they approved 250 houses after 22 years. He got so fed up. He got so fed up, he went to another city.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Another guy told me of giving a speech about Sequa, and I was giving some examples. And somebody yelled out, I had to thin 25 grand to get rid of the kangaroo rat. I never heard of a kangaroo rat. And I talked to him after the speech, and he said, building the factory. He had to pay $25,000 to hire an expert to find not just a kangaroo rat, but this guy, even more money to give them a new habitat. Now, as far as I know, rats are rodents.
Starting point is 01:01:29 All you did was jacking people not to work or not to work on a big law firm. And one of the things I did for a while was workers' compensation. And I don't want to cut you off in the middle of this story. So we're going to start back there in just a second. more with Larry Elder in just a couple of minutes. He is running for to be governor of California. If you would like to help him out and donate to his campaign, just go to his website, electelder.com. Electelder.com. You know, we all reach that point sometimes where we say,
Starting point is 01:02:28 you know, I'm saving too much money every month. I just kind of slow down on this fiscal responsibility thing. Yeah, me neither. Never said that. Never said. Can't imagine ever getting to a point to where you're like, I got to stop saving so much money. We're throwing money out of the window.
Starting point is 01:02:48 And we've been doing it for the last year and a half if you haven't refied your mortgage. I mean, it's just the tinctyest. bit crazy. Now it'd be an excellent time to save every bit of money you can, and the best way to do that is take some time out of your busy schedule today and call American financing. Let their team of financial consultants see what they can do to help from their mortgage refinancing to consolidation loans to all other types of loans. American financing is who you need. American financing been helping people just like you save a ton of money for over 20 years. They work for you, not the bank. Just call them now. American financing.
Starting point is 01:03:28 800, 906, 2440 or Americanfinancing.net. All right, blazeTV.com slash Glenn promo code is Glenn for a Blaze TV subscription. We have more with Larry Elder coming up. We were talking business in California with Larry Elder, and I had to interrupt him on a story that he said in Ohio. Can you begin that story again? Sure. I practiced law, a big law firm in Ohio. I did a little bit of workers' compensation from the defense side representing companies that had been sued by workers.
Starting point is 01:04:03 And the burden of proof was, of course, on the claimant to make me from who runs a bunch of different restaurants in California. The proof is on the employer to disprove the claim. Oh, my gosh. So many employers just settle. And after a while, they offered to settle. He said no. 5,000. He said no.
Starting point is 01:04:44 Went all the way to court, spent way more money than $55,000 that this employee was claiming. But it was the principle of the thing, A, and B, he felt to disprove the claim. So tell me, talk to me a little bit about, you know, I know big business. A lot of them are moving out of California, and they're coming to. Texas and I swear if these people California my Texas I'm going to be really pissed but
Starting point is 01:05:17 you can't do business there but there are so many small business owners that are just dying just dying because of the COVID restrictions and it is a hostile environment. There's what is the name of that restaurant
Starting point is 01:05:34 that cronies? Pineapple hill. No it's cronies restaurant. they are they are being boxed by their little community their their little city council and not and just being forced out of business because they didn't they didn't do everything that little city council said they had to do to stay safe well they couldn't and keep people employed and keep their restaurant right i mean what is what is happening for the uh small business owner because that's the backbone of society they're being slaughtered and
Starting point is 01:06:09 Glenn, I'm not just a lawyer. I also ran a small business for 14 years. At my peak, I had about a dozen employees, and it didn't go bankrupt. I didn't liquid number of years. My point is, most margins often from payroll businesses in California ended up in bankruptcy because the bankruptcy court are just now reopening and are processing the claims. All I know is that the average state, two-thirds of jobs have been restored. Here in California, only 50% of jobs have been destroyed. How many lives were destroyed by this man, who, by the way, telling other businesses to shut down. Wow. This is why one guy told me he's a tire guy. He buys outlets. Yeah. Another shop out here. And he said, I got sick and tired of all the regulations. He'd been in litigation for a month trying to open one here in California.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Very. Very, it took me two years to build a radio studio in New York City. I built the studios here in Texas in two weeks. 17 years. And based upon taxes, based upon regulations, based upon the power of the public sector unions, unfunded pension liability, the degree to which the business climate is friendly or unfriendly, CEO magazine for 17 years of existence, has rated California the word is why again, middle and K, are leaving California for the first time in our nation's history.
Starting point is 01:08:03 Can I say one more thing about the school system? Yeah. The largest contributor to L.A. affiliate called the United Teachers of Los Angeles. And I gave an interview to a black newspaper, a walk-in gland, and I can just tell by their body language, okay, it's got some public in. And I had to go stop a housing development county adjacent to L.A., 9,000 units. It was going to live on a houseboat wherever he lives at one time with pristine article about these 9,000 housing units, didn't think of the tradeoff. And I said,
Starting point is 01:09:22 don't you see the connection between these rich? You can't get housing here? And one of the reporters told me before the interview started, he tried to buy a house. After a year, after year for Democrats that don't give you choice in school, even though black and brown parents, based upon the polls say they want it, they're trying to get that first house. And I'm the bad guy. I'm the Uncle Tom. I said, think. I know that all of us were their assumption. And that's why I believe they're so afraid of me. I'm from the hood. I'm from Crenshaw High School. I can talk about the connection between what these liberal people, and every time there's a gang injunction filed, the ACLU files a lawsuit to either trim it or again for the very people in the inner city that people like that claim that they care about. Tupacure once said, we need the police more than anybody else because of all the criminal element that's right there. I said, who's on your side? Larry Elder, the uncle Tom, or crime at all because they're living up in the hills. They have private security.
Starting point is 01:10:36 of your assumptions. And I can just tell that for the first time they're hearing stuff, they'd never heard before. And unlike the typical black and brown people, but what the left is doing to them in ways more effectively than I think the typical Republican can. I will tell you, Larry, I think it is going to take a black man or a black woman to turn us around because you are the only ones that can really break through with any kind of credibility. and it takes somebody who is not a bomb thrower and is eloquent enough to be able to get people to rethink their assumptions. Larry, I wish you the best, and we'd love to have you on again. Could I ask you, how does this work? I mean, you go in and you say, I want him recalled or I don't want them recalled. And then if you say, I want them recalled, you can vote then on who you want to replace.
Starting point is 01:11:36 ballot, and that's it. Do you want Gavin Newsom replaced? And if 50% plus one says yes, the second question is, who do you want to replace him? Now, you won't know the 50% plus one until they, of course, count the ballots. But what you can either vote to replace him or not vote to replace him, and you can vote for somebody to replace him. 50% plus one has to vote to recall him, and then whoever gets the greatest number of votes to be able that I could win with 20, 25% or so of the vote altogether. And that's why this is, this is Lynn, the ballots go out, out on August 14th. So come September the 14th, when the election actually takes place, it's almost going to be anti-climactic because by then most people will have voted.
Starting point is 01:12:26 And that's why I need money. Believe it of $9 million, it's something I can raise that amount of money, and I will. An unlimited amount of money, and most people speculate it has been at least God heavens. How come you have the restrained that he doesn't? For us to litigate in the court. That makes no sense. Makes no sense. It gives me huge. And when it was clear, I was going to run, Glenn. All you union gave this guy five million number one, and I'm not doing more than the bad teachers ought to be paid, and the person that hates bad teachers more than anybody else are good teachers.
Starting point is 01:13:26 But the unions are the ones that give all this money to left-wing car. Only bargaining over wages, not on benefits for dues, and if you've got to raise a retirement Walker has done to California, and believe me, they will come after me with... No, I worry and will begin to pray for your security, Larry, and for a shield, protection over you. You can go to elect elder, elect elder.com. Newsom has a war chest
Starting point is 01:14:35 already going into it of 30 million. They believe that it's a $30 million war chest already. And you know if Larry is the guy, they are going to do everything they can. They're raising money. Just Larry's raising money for them.
Starting point is 01:14:54 Can we get Larry to raise money? for Larry, it would be nice to have Larry Elder as governor and you can help. Everybody always says, what can I do to help? What can I can't do anything to help? How about five bucks? Ten bucks. 100 bucks. Anything that you have this, he could win with 20%.
Starting point is 01:15:13 Electelder.com. Electelder.com. Larry, thank you so much. I hope to talk to you again. Define me. You got it. Thanks, man. Wow.
Starting point is 01:15:26 That would be, that would change a lot of things. Game changer. And it's possible. I mean, the real question is, will they throw Newsom out? But, well, I want to give you some, I want to give you some polling numbers because you, I know you love polling numbers. I do. And you'll be able to look through them and go, ah, ah, because I've done that. So I'd like to hear your reaction.
Starting point is 01:15:47 Let me go to our sponsor this half hour. I don't know about you, but my default setting on whenever I grill out is not paying attention, you know? starts out great. You're like, oh, man, we got some great stakes. I'm going to go out there. And then, you know, halfway through, it's like, can somebody call the fire department? Because it's, I just, I lose attention. And, and I don't know how. You know, everybody's like, no, see, you feel here on your hand. And that's medium rare. And that's rare. And that's well done. Okay, I, it all feels the same to me. I don't know what you're even talking about. Anyway, Rec tech. Now that I have a rec tech, I can smoke, I can grill, you can even bake in rec tech.
Starting point is 01:16:29 And they come out perfect every time because they have smart grill technology. I want you to go to rectech.com right now, R-E-C-T-E-Q.com. And A-B, compare. If you are in the market for a grill or a smoker or anything, outdoor cooking, you need to look at a rec tech. You will never find one that is built better. I think this is the best on the market no matter the price. It's rec tech. R-E-C-T-E-Q-C-E-K-C-com. Yeah, hello, you sick freak.
Starting point is 01:17:10 I have to tell you that Larry Elder interview and the possibility of he being governor of Texas has given me real hope for the first time in a long time. It would be shocking to him that he's running for governor of Texas. I'm not governor of Texas. Sorry, governor of California. Yeah, governor of California. Yeah, that is.
Starting point is 01:17:25 I was just thinking it would be like Texas. Yeah. It's a real conservative. And like it's a way, there's an actual path here because Newsom could lose this. And if he does, Newsom only needs to get 25%. May I give you the stats here? As Larry was saying, as Larry was saying, the war chest already for Gavin Newsom is $30 million. And that's coming from labor unions, law firms, tech executives, and Native American tribes.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Okay. So he's got $30 million. Larry can only raise $9 million and is trying to raise $9 million. That just seems crazy. But that's the advantage that Gavinusim has is money. But I don't believe you can buy an election. What Larry has in his favor is Republicans represent a quarter of the overall electorate, but comprise a third of the most likely voters.
Starting point is 01:18:23 while Democrats and no party preference registrants are disproportionately less likely to vote. So the passion is on the right. So listen to this. 87% of Republicans express the highest level of interest in the election versus little over half of Democrats and independents. Democrats expect Newsom to prevail by 70 to 8%. So Democrats think he's going to hold on to this. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:53 And maybe that's, they're not, they're not motivated to go in, uh, and they also think he's going to win. And if that happens, somebody like Larry Elder could win this thing, especially if Newsom,
Starting point is 01:19:07 I mean, Newsom is going to open up the schools before this thing. He'll open him up. He'll close him right after. He'll be like, you know what? It was just getting too dangerous for the teacher. Uh,
Starting point is 01:19:18 but he will, he'll do whatever he has to do, I think, to win. But I think that's I think that's good news The enthusiasm gap is is that a that's a huge gap isn't it? Stu I know you really watch polls Yeah no that is a huge gap I mean this is it's similar to what we saw
Starting point is 01:19:36 For example in the it's like a reverse Trump election The people on the right literally can't stand Gavin Newsom in California So it's also like a Hillary Clinton But on the I was going to say on the opposite side of this In the Trump election, you had people who were really passionate for Trump versus people who really hated Trump. Joe Biden had nothing to do with that election at all. Correct. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:59 In California, it's people who really hate Gavin Newsom versus people who are like, eh, Gavin Newsom. And that, so that could be the type of thing that gets to. That was Hillary Clinton. Yeah. Because there were people that were very excited about Donald Trump and then people who hated Hillary Clinton. But her core was like, eh. Yeah, they didn't love her. They didn't love her.
Starting point is 01:20:21 And that's how they feel about. Kevin Newsom. I mean, I think this could be a game changer. A game changer. Huge. Yeah. And really possible. I mean, the polls are tight on Newsom being recalled. And if he gets recalled, Elder is the frontrunner. Electelder.com. Hello, America, and welcome to the Glenn Beck program. In 60 seconds, I'm going to lay out something that will show you, if you're paying attention, how dire the situation is, how close we are to truly losing freedom. In every respect, we are very, very close. Remember when I said, bridge is out?
Starting point is 01:21:09 No, no, no, no. The bridge has been restored, except it takes us to a different place, and we're about to cross that threshold. I'll explain in 60 seconds. I don't know if you've heard the good news or not, but the Democrats have proposed another $5 trillion reconciliation in social reform bill. Isn't that? Isn't that? Oh, my gosh, that's going to be good. Now, unsurprisingly, people like Jeffrey Gunlock, who is the CEO of Double-Line Capital, just reiterated his position that the U.S. dollar is doomed.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Yeah. It's not a question of if it's a question of when. We cannot do this. We can't keep spending our way out. By the way, did you see the Fed yesterday came out and said, you know, just because we said it was transitory inflation doesn't mean it will go back down. Wait, what? Wait. Yes, it does.
Starting point is 01:22:19 What are you talking about? Science, science, science. Unbelievable. Gold line right now is given away free silver with their extremely popular $5 gold. Indian coins with every qualifying order, you're going to receive 10 brilliant, uncirculated silver Kennedy half dollars at no additional cost. I love these because it remind me my grandfather. Every time we would come and stay with him or, you know, go out, he'd always take a silver dollar at Kennedy on the front and he'd hand it to me. And you'd keep this.
Starting point is 01:22:50 Fortunately, I didn't listen to my grandfather on that because I don't have any of them left, but I love them. Anyway, this is a great special on an already. low-cost item. If you're thinking about gold or silver, this is a perfect promotion for you. They're standing by to take your call. Call 866 Goldline. 866 Goldline or Goldline.com. All right. What is this January 6th hearing really all about? Okay. You think that it is about, you know, getting these bad guys and duping the American people thinking that it's these white Trump supporters that are the biggest enemy of all mankind. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:34 That is one of the goals. But it is much deeper than that. And I have not read these things anywhere. Thanks to members of the Blaze who pay everybody's salary, we have a good staff of researchers that tie all of these things together. And I want to show you what I showed you on TV last night. And this, you can watch it all, see all of the documents on last night's Blaze TV, Wednesday night special. I urge you to watch it.
Starting point is 01:24:07 And if you're not a Blaze subscriber, may I ask you, please, we all need to stick to, we all need to hang together. We'll hang separately. You will see by the end of what I'm going to share with you, you will understand we are running out of time. All right. U.S. Capitol Police. did you know the U.S. Capitol Police are setting up regional offices in Florida and California? And they may be setting up regional offices all around the country. We move in the Capitol?
Starting point is 01:24:43 No. No, they say it's necessary to investigate threats to members of Congress. I thought that's what the 56 field offices of the FBI were supposed to do. But apparently, we need capital. Police. I mean, if this is starting to sound like the Hunger Games, uh, police force from the Capitol? That's Capitol City Police. The U.S. Capitol Police say threats against members of Congress have more than doubled so far this year compared with 2020. The Capitol Police are also buying more police armor, surveillance, and rioting gear.
Starting point is 01:25:19 And it is now training personnel with the National Guard in Seattle and Virginia Beach. it's seeking $107 million in budget increases. $107 million in a budget increase. Now, remember, the Capitol Police in January, the Washington Post said that the U.S. Capitol Police already have a big budget with, quote, little accountability. Last month, the Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin approved a request to loan the Capitol Police eight what are called persistent surveillance systems
Starting point is 01:26:02 ground units. Now, the Army is going to install these and train the Capitol Police to operate them. They capture high definition video, have night vision to, quote, enhance the ability to detect and monitor threat activity. Now, if it was cameras, I think, don't we already have cameras? No, this is military grade. Let me, let me share with you the problem with these base stations. In June, a federal appeals court found that the Baltimore Police Department are using similar but not military grade surveillance technology, and they found that it violates the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure.
Starting point is 01:26:51 Why? Because an independent study of the Baltimore police system found, the technology allowed police to track people for multiple days. So if you go to Washington, the Capitol Police will be able to track you for days. Now, we're not going to know how the U.S. Capitol Police are going to use the surveillance system on loan from the military, because the other great thing about the Capitol Police is they are free and exempt from the Freedom of Information Act. because it's part of the legislative branch.
Starting point is 01:27:31 So this is Nancy Pelosi's police force. And they are giving them a buttload of more money and we can't FOIA anything about them. How do you feel good? Do you feel good? Because I feel good
Starting point is 01:27:49 already. I don't know if this is going to make you feel any better. Capital Police press release just said throughout the last six months the United States Capitol Police have been working around the clock with our congressional stakeholders to pivot toward an intelligence base protective agency. So now the Capitol Police are going to pivot and become like the CIA. Oh, okay, all right. Last night I went over the national strategy for countering domestic terrorism.
Starting point is 01:28:24 and if you haven't seen it, you're normal. The media has really just rubber-stamped this and moved on, but it is a massive transformation of national security policy. First of all, in it in the strategy report, and I want to quote, domestic terrorist attacks in the United States have been committed frequently by those opposing our government institutions. Now, frequently, what does that mean, Stu? Frequently.
Starting point is 01:28:59 Something has been happening frequently. Often. Okay. All right. And attacks in the United States have been committed frequently by those opposing our government institutions. Name some. January 6th. January 6th.
Starting point is 01:29:18 Let me, let's say that domestic terrorist attacks. in the United States have been committed frequently by those opposing our government institutions. Gretchen Whitmer. They were trying to kidnap her. I remember hearing about that. Okay. Well, you've already been well trained. You really have. Look at that. Antifa, Portland, Minneapolis. What are they saying? They're all trying to destroy. Chaz in Seattle. We don't recognize this as the part of the United States of America. My understanding, those attacks are okay. Well, let me just say. I just, that's why I was asking you for, for those.
Starting point is 01:29:56 Because if you're being honest, you include those. Of course. You start with January 6th and you go back and you include all those. But unfortunately, the White House only mentions four events. The 1995 Oklahoma City bombing. Okay. The killing of five Dallas police officers in 2016. Which was after a BLM, during a BLM protest.
Starting point is 01:30:18 Okay. And the person that did it, was a BLM protester. And then the shooting of four people at the Republican congressional baseball practice in 2017. Okay, yeah, sure. Okay, again, a Democrat. And the January 6th Capitol Riot. Those are the four.
Starting point is 01:30:35 Now, that's not frequently. That's not frequently. It's too much, but it's not frequently when you have to, you know, go back to 1995. And, but it was nice that they're including some Democrats. I'm surprised because when they always say this is the worst thing since the Civil War, January 6th, it's not even the worst thing since the 2017. No, it's not. I mean, obviously you can go back to the Oklahoma City.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Oklahoma City. Or you can even go back to the George Floyd riots and all that other things and make arguments. But like when you're talking about actual threats to our democracy, a Bernie Sanders supporter tried to kill 10% of elected Republicans. Yeah. That was a bad day. That was a really bad day. Suboptimal.
Starting point is 01:31:22 Suboptimal. That's a good word for it. Yeah. Okay. Now, what they're doing is they're conflating actual terrorism, the 95 Oklahoma City bombing, with hate crime events and with the January 6th Capitol Riot. The White House says, now listen to this. This is really important. Domestic terrorism is both persistent and evolving, which means it.
Starting point is 01:31:49 if domestic terrorism is evolving, so will the definition of terrorism. When we thought of terrorism, we thought the words radical Islam, jihad, one crazy, whacked out, live in the middle of the woods guy coming down and blowing something up. That's terrorism.
Starting point is 01:32:15 No, because it's constantly evolving. And if they meant that kind of terrorism, they would have mentioned radical Islam or jihad, but they didn't. Nowhere in this report is any kind of Islamic terror mentioned, even though just last year, not 1995, last year, there were multiple federal indictments of people for providing material support to ISIS and Hamas. Again, from the White House strategy, among that wide range of animating ideologies, racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, principally those who promote the superiority of the white
Starting point is 01:32:54 race and the militia violent extremists that are assessed as presenting the most persistent and lethal threats. Okay, I want to make it really clear. They're white supremac Nazis, I hate them. I hate them. Who doesn't? Except them. And how many are there?
Starting point is 01:33:12 Really? You're a white supremacist. You're just as much as a moron as Ibram X. Kendi. Sorry. You're both supremacist. One is a white supremacist. One is a black supremacist. You're both morons.
Starting point is 01:33:28 And I know it's not popular to say, but I will, to my dying breath, say, all men are created equal. All men. I don't care what your skin color is. In fact, we should stop listening to people who say, we should judge a man on his skin color. Okay, so the strategy doesn't define racism, doesn't define bigotry, but they are, they cannot and will not ignore the dynamics of racism and bigotry that perpetuate the domestic terrorism threat. So what are they going to do about it? What are they going to do? Well, they've already set something up in the Pentagon.
Starting point is 01:34:14 I don't know if you know this is Senior Advisor to Secretary of Defense for Diversity and Inclusion. It's a new role is Bishop Garrison. And he's going to make sure that the military gets rid of all racism. Now, this is what he said when he tweeted in 2019. I mean, how old were you way back then? He said, if you support Donald Trump, support for him, a racist, is support for all of his beliefs. He's dragging a lot of bad actors, misogynist, extremist,
Starting point is 01:34:50 and other racists out in the light, normalizing their actions. If you support the president, you support that. And there's no room for nuance with this. There's no more, yeah, but I'm not like that kind of talk. So if you're in the military and you supported or support Donald Trump, Bishop Garrison, the new senior advisor to the Secretary of Defense for Diversity and Inclusion, says that you are a racist. Okay.
Starting point is 01:35:18 All right. so now he was given the job in a working group in the Pentagon to make the he's the the point of contact for the countering extremism working group and he's coming up with the definition of prohibited extremist activities among uniformed military personnel and on gray areas such as reading following and liking extremist material and content in social media the forums and platforms, he's coming up with what those things are. So it's kind of a thought police kind of thing. What exactly does the Pentagon consider extremist?
Starting point is 01:36:02 Well, we don't know for sure, but there is a memo that has just come out, new category called Patriot Extremism. The memo says this ideology holds that the U.S. government has become corrupt, absolutely has, has overstepped its constitutional boundaries. Uh, yep. Or is no longer capable of protecting the people against foreign threats. That one is the only one that I'm kind of like, well, maybe. I mean, he hasn't completely sold us bound and chained to China.
Starting point is 01:36:31 But he is releasing the spies. Well, that kind of thinking is just a normal Tuesday for half of the nation or maybe more. But by this new standard of quote, patriot extremism, half the country is an extremist. And that is the point to redefine extremism, terrorist, and terrorism. All right. I started with the Capitol Police. All right. Let me show you how the strategy is already playing out.
Starting point is 01:37:15 This is not something they're proposing and thinking of doing. They're already doing this. I'll show that to you next. If you've been listening to me for quite a while now, you know, if you get any kind of value of anything that I talk about, please consider this. Get the most out of your sleep. We've been talking about Mike Lindell and his products for a while. And I have to tell you honestly, I don't take clients that I don't believe in.

Mike Lindell has the durable Giza dream sheets that are unbelievable, unbelievable. When you get some of their discounts like they have on the towel set right now, you get it for $39.99, I think it's like $109 normally.

Everything you are seeing, in fact, I've reached out to an old friend of mine who is one of the best scholars on Woodrow Wilson because I think everything that Biden is doing, I think Woodrow Wilson has done. And history is not, you know, they always say history repeats itself.
Starting point is 01:39:36 No, history is repeating itself right now. And this time, we are sound asleep without war. Without war. When Woodrow Wilson got into office, he formed something called the American Protective League. By the end of the war in 1918, he had 250,000 badge wearing members across the country. Their job was to spy and intimidate. read their neighbors mail and listen in on their phone calls in an effort to root out the enemy. The government, along with these 250 badge wearing members, they had as many as 2 million business people also doing the same thing as volunteers.
Starting point is 01:40:27 They arrested 175,000 Americans for criticizing the war. That's it. Now, let me ask you, could that happen again? Yes, it could. Could it? It is. It is happening again. We told you about what, in April, last spring, when Yahoo News reported on a secret program run by the law enforcement section of the U.S. Postal Service.
Starting point is 01:41:04 It's called I cop. and they search through social media posts of Americans looking for inflammatory posts. Then, when they find somebody that they think is radical, they pass it to the Department of Homeland Security. And they're mainly interested, and this is a quote, in right-leaning parlor and telegram accounts, end quote. This is the postal service. But wait, there's more. Life is busy. Opportunities to do what you want to do. Don't wait around just because you've got pain today.
Starting point is 01:41:53 If you're somebody who lives with pain, moderate or severe, I'm sure you know exactly what I mean. I do not want to miss my life because I'm in pain and I just don't feel well enough to do it. The pain in our bodies that we deal with day to day, most of it is caused by inflammation in our joints. I went through years of inflammatory pain in my hands. It was one of the worst things I've ever gone through. I couldn't write. I couldn't do anything. I couldn't paint.
Starting point is 01:42:25 Now, I mean, look, I'm painting up a storm. That is all thanks to Relief Factor. I want you to call 800, 500, 583,84. 800, 500, 8384. It's Relieffactor.com.

Glenn went through all this stuff with all the documents and everything. You can watch it on last night's Glenn TV program available on demand at blazedtv.com slash Glenn. The promo code is Glenn. This is the Glenn Beck program. So, Glenn, I'm looking for an update here.
Starting point is 01:43:16 from you on a big story that was breaking yesterday that... Oh my gosh. You... I'm trying to get to the White House strategy on how we're all screwed. Yeah. And that's something we can get to after we hear the update on how you're feeling about your art show. You're such a jerk. Well, you said you were like...
Starting point is 01:43:36 I was ready to vomit yesterday. Yes. It's got to be closer today. You're a day closer to it. A day closer and I'm very vomited. Very vomited. You could vomit at any moment. I could vomit at any moment.
Starting point is 01:43:46 And I hope I could vomit on you. So what's your biggest fear here? Is it that people won't show up? Is it that people won't buy it? Is that people come in and they do show up, but they laugh at your hard work? What is the thing that most... Thank you. All of those.
Starting point is 01:44:01 Thank you very much. Could you order them and describe how you... If you'd like to go to the art show, it's up at Park City at Park City Fine Art. You can find them at Park City Fine Art.com and get all the details. By the way, you can come up and see the art. And there's also affordable art, really, for everybody, I believe. I believe. I think we're supposed to have to have limited editions and some copies of the work that we will be selling on Saturday.
Starting point is 01:44:35 And you can call the Park City Fine Art for more information if you want. Okay, can I get back to business now? listen to this in the White House strategy. Remember, all of this stuff is already going on. The Department of Treasury, in coordination with law enforcement and other interagency partners, is exploring ways to enhance the identification and analysis of financial activity associated with domestic terrorists. How do we define domestic terrorists? We can't.
Starting point is 01:45:10 It's always evolving. Oh, that's right. It's always evolving, as well as enhancing engagement with financial institutions on domestic terror financing through existing provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act. So if you are deemed a danger or a domestic terrorist, they can cut you off. They're working with the banks to stop your financing. Okay. the White House doesn't say exactly how the government is going to use the Treasury Department to spy on Americans in its war on domestic terrorism, but we have some context clues.
Starting point is 01:45:51 Earlier this month, as we talked to Tom Fitton yesterday and found out Judicial Watch filed a freedom of information lawsuit against the FBI to view records of communication between the FBI and several banks. Bank of America reportedly gave the FBI financial records of customers who made transactions in Washington, in DC on January 5th and 6th. Normally you need a subpoena to do that. Here's a guy. We think he was involved. Can you get us the records to prove that he was there?
Starting point is 01:46:21 Yada yada. That wasn't this. Give us everybody who was at a cash machine or spent any money on the three days around January 6th. That's unheard of. Yeah. That's such a wide net. Exactly right. Exactly right.
Starting point is 01:46:37 So they are not getting. they're not getting any information even though we have FOIA. But remember, the Capitol Police can't get a Freedom of Information Act request because they're from the legislative branch. So this is Nancy Pelosi's force. Judicial Watch complied when the FBI said, you know, we need more specifics. What exactly are you looking for? And then they said, ah, what you guys did about January? sixth. They will neither confirm nor deny the existence of any such records. That's how your government
Starting point is 01:47:17 is responding to a redress. I would like you to give us the answers. That's constitutional. You have a right to do that. Nope. Last month, Wells Fargo shut down the bank account of Lauren Witsky, who ran for U.S. Senate in 2020 as Delaware's Republican candidate. Now, you may disagree with her. I don't really know much about her. She seems a little loopy, but you don't have to agree with people. And there's going to be a lot of people that say crazy things. Well, she was in Florida, and they decided to shut down her bank account. Wells Fargo did.
Starting point is 01:47:57 And they said they just did it for business reasons. What business reason? You just shut me out. I'm in Florida. I have no credit card. I have nothing. I can't get back home. My credit in my account says zero.
Starting point is 01:48:08 What do you mean you shut me down? In June, as you know, somebody at the IRS leaked 15 years' worth of tax returns of thousands of Americans who are really wealthy to ProPublica. It's a non-profit investigative news outlet. The IRS says it's investigating the leak. Okay, wait a minute. What? What? They just leaked all this.
Starting point is 01:48:37 The press printed it? It's all secret stuff, never supposed to be exposed. And you're like, yeah, we're looking into it. And at the same time, in this bill that Biden is trying to get past the new spending bill, there's $80 billion of a budget raise for the IRS. $80 billion. So you know, the budget for 2021 is $11.9 billion. This will increase their budget by one third.
Starting point is 01:49:05 What are they going to do with it? they want more auditors. Who do you think they're going to be shaking down? The IRS is now going to be weaponized once again. These are the things that they are doing. You know that they are doing all of these things. Let me give you one of the other pillars. By the way, watch all of this.
Starting point is 01:49:30 And you'll see all of the documents, all of the quotes. This is nothing that is a theory. This is the fact. This is what they're doing in their own words. If you don't believe me, go to whitehouse.com and just look for Whitehouse's national strategy for countering domestic terrorism. How do we define domestic terrorism again? It's always evolving. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:49:57 That's right. That's right. Okay. So one of their pillars is to understand. understand and share domestic terrorism related information. This one, they are working with high tech. Now, as soon as they release this, it's interesting, Facebook began doing something else. They began, if you were on Facebook, you might have received one.
Starting point is 01:50:28 A rewarding extremist content. If you go on to certain Facebook or you, you know, just click on something, you might get extremist content. And then it asks, are you concerned someone you know is becoming an extremist? What big brother? What are you doing? Then another message from Facebook, you may have been exposed to harmful extremist content recently. Violent groups try to manipulate your anger and disappointment. you can take action now to protect yourself and others.
Starting point is 01:51:07 To protect myself from what? Thought crime prosecution? I mean, desperate people do desperate things. Desperate people are used and manipulated online. And a lot of them are manipulated online by people who are seeking power in the different parties or Facebook. And don't talk to me about manipulating people because that's what you're. your algorithm does. Now the Democratic National Committee
Starting point is 01:51:37 planning to work with SMS carriers to dispel information about COVID vaccines, are they reading our messages? If you're an unvaccinated right winger, to many on the left, you're a threat to national security that should be locked out of public places.
Starting point is 01:51:56 Now, the U.S. Surgeon General didn't go that far, but how long is it going to be before the Surgeon General has a warning label on things that I believe, or things that you believe, how do they define misinformation? See, can we play the Nancy Pelosi audio from yesterday? Listen to this on science. Just to clarify something from earlier, is Kevin McCarthy a moron and if so, why?
Starting point is 01:52:32 I said earlier in my comment, science, science, science and science. When almost every subject that you can name, science is the answer, whether it's the climate crisis, whether it's a health crisis, whether it's our preeminence in the world and technology, science, science, science, science. To say that wearing a mask is not based on science, I think is not wise. Okay, stop. Stop. It's not based on science. It's based on somebody's opinion who happens to be a scientist today. Because you've changed it over and over and over. again. If we're going to listen to science, do we have to listen to science? You know, I don't mind
Starting point is 01:53:17 listening to science when they say, butter is bad for you. And then 10 years later, they're like, you know, butter has some good things. Okay, this is like every other week. They're flip-flopping. That's not science. That's an opinion. And that's misinformation. Me saying that will be deemed at some point, if not now, misinformation and dangerous. The National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism. How do we define domestic terrorism? It's always evolving. It's always evolving.
Starting point is 01:53:54 Okay, good. This is from the White House. Their next pillar is clear consequences for accounts that repeatedly violate platform policies. Okay. All right. Now, here's the thing. They want to prevent individuals from being drawn into the grip of domestic terrorism in the first place. So they're going to punish you if you are part of misinformation.
Starting point is 01:54:24 But they also, if you've been exposed to misinformation, they want to make sure that they are there. Like clockwork, after the strategy was released, the FBI posted a curious tweet saying, family members and peers are often best positioned to witness signs of mobilization to violence, help prevent homegrown violent extremism. Visit this link to learn how to spot suspicious behaviors and report them to the FBI. Oh, I don't know. That's a little George Orwell. Especially when they're taking over our schools, let me just quote from 1984,
Starting point is 01:55:03 The children were systematically turned against their parents and taught to spy on them and report their deviations. The family had become, in effect, an extension of the thought police. It was a device by means of which everyone could be surrounded night and day by informers who knew him intimately. Let me give you this comparison here, a little nugget from the White House strategy. even as we augment our approach to domestic terrorism under existing authorities, the Department of Justice is examining carefully what new authorities might be necessary and appropriate. New authorities, well, we already have the Postal Service doing intelligence operations. We have the White House senior staff flagging people's Facebook posts.
Starting point is 01:55:54 We have the FBI urging family members and peers to report on each other. do you see the apparatus that they have built? It's not building. It's built. It's here. I'm going to give you a solution right after the commercial break. And please hear me on this solution. Life lock.
Starting point is 01:56:22 Brilliant idea the other day I had. You're going to love this one. What if criminals got to vote on cyber criminals? Then they'd only be able to steal our identity. money if we were, you know, silly enough to keep electing them to the office of cybercriminal. How could this possibly fail? We're already electing criminals. Why don't we just start electing cyber criminals?
Starting point is 01:56:47 Okay. Could happen. Crazier things are happening right now. Cybercriminals can steal what's yours, sometimes even harm your finances and credit. Good thing there's life lock because you know the FBI's not looking into all of your details for that. life lock helps to detect a wide range of identity threats and they'll work with you to fix the problem if your data ends up getting compromised. No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses. But with LifeLock, you can protect what's yours with LifeLock by Norton.

Starting point is 01:57:47 I'm running out of time. But I want to give you a story. This is happening up in New York. It appears as though Ben and Jerry's is dying in New York. There's a lot of Jewish people in New York. Ben and Jerry's came out and said, you know, we're boycotting and we're not going to be involved with Israel. real because of the West Bank, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:58:10 They're going to stop selling all their products in the West Bank. Well, the people in certain parts of New York, big Jewish communities, they're not going to Ben and Jerry's to the retail stores. Now, these are franchisees. Listen to this franchisee. He said, I could sit back and watch without speaking out, but it's hurt our bottom line and our overall store value. We fear boycotts from customers.
Starting point is 01:58:38 We have many of our customers are Jewish and they're not coming in. He said we've lost foot traffic and big catering jobs, yada, yada, yada. And he said, now I'm going to make some, I want people to know I'm not them. Here's a thing. Boycotts work. Now that isn't a boycott. That's just a group in a community like, I'm not going in there anymore. Now this is a franchisee.
Starting point is 01:59:05 Coca-Cola. We've been concentrating on Coca-Cola. Cola this whole time going, Coca-Cola's got to stop. Why doesn't anyone focus on the local bottler? Because they most likely don't agree with the Coca-Cola nonsense. So why are we going to our local bottler and saying, we don't want Coke in our neighborhoods anymore? And you local Coke bottling plant, you're distributing it.
Starting point is 01:59:36 You're enabling this. and we're not interested. That's what's happening to Ben and Jerry's. And believe me, I know Coke will pay attention if the bottlers start to go, ah, guys, I'm in trouble here, I can't carry your product anymore.
