Now my voice was doing fine until about until I started talking to you.
Let me tell you about to ease for everyone.
What is the point of having health insurance until you have to spend a small fortune before it actually helps you?
Some people are paying $10,000, $15,000 a year out of pocket before their plan kicks in.
And that's, if that's not broken, I don't know what it is.
Here's the good news.
There is a way out.
It's called ease for everyone.
And it's exactly what health care should be, clear, fair, and open to any adult in America,
no matter what zip code, income, or job you have.
You can have it for as little as $262 a month.
You can get unlimited virtual primary care, unlimited urgent care visits for $30,
plus cashback reimbursements for big expenses, hospital stays, ER visits, surgeries, et cetera, et cetera.
You don't have to settle for all the high costs and the low results.
Join this fight for freedom.
Once and for all say no to Obamacare and yes, to ease for everyone.

All right.
Hello, Stu.
How are you?
Glenn, how are you in D.C.?
I am good.
I tell you the allergies, the trees and everything has just,
they exploded in my throat yesterday.
And so I'm not sure how long my voice.
will last, and I have to save it because I'm meeting with the president a little later on this
afternoon. I'm going to spend a couple of hours with him, and that show will broadcast tonight
at 9 p.m. on Blaze, so just stick with me. All right, let me, let's start here with POTUS,
or I mean with SCOTUS. A battle for the kid, the soul of our children began yesterday in the
Supreme Court. The case involves a group of parents suing the largest school district in
Maryland for their right to withdraw their children from classes on days that books with gay and
transgender characters themes are discussed. The parents are suing on religious freedom grounds.
In 2022, Montgomery County Public Schools added LGBTQ-themed books to their curriculum for students
from pre-K through the fifth grade. The books include things like pride puppy, an alphabet book,
about a family whose puppy gets lost at a pride parade.
Love and Violet about a girl who has a crush on her female classmate.
These are pre-K to fifth grade.
And Born Ready, about a transgender boy.
Again, these books added to pre-K to fifth grade,
this new curriculum is DEI for elementary children.
Now, at first, the Maryland School District allowed or alerted parents
when the storybooks were going to be used in class and allowed them to have their children excused from the sessions.
But the district has sent stop giving both advance notice and an opt-out policy saying it's too hard to administer.
I mean, geez, it's really, really.
And it leads to lots of absences and stigmatizes some kids.
I want you to know, this case is not about a few storybooks, a few colorful, you know, pictures of little puppies getting lost.
It's about whether you, as a parent, still have a God-given right to raise your children,
according to your faith and your values and your common sense.
Do you have the right?
Because if the Supreme Court says, no, you don't have that right anymore.
If the First Amendment free exercise clause doesn't protect this, your right as a parent,
then what are all our rights even for?
If we don't have a right as a parent to parent our children,
none of the rights really even matter.
Now, the parents who are suing insist that these books,
quote, promote one-sided transgender ideology,
encouraged gender transitioning,
and focus excessively on romantic infatuation.
By the way, the parents are not seeking to remove the books from classrooms
or the children's libraries.
They just don't want their children to have to sit through these indoctrination sessions.
Oh, that's not good enough.
You will comply.
That's what it's all about.
They're not trying to erase anyone's story.
They just want to not comply.
They want to shield their children from ideas that contradict their faith.
What is the First Amendment really all about?
Sounds reasonable.
Sounds like basically.
Basic Parenting 101. First Amendment is clear. You cannot burden someone's free exercise of religion,
forcing kids to engage with ideas that violate their families' deeply held beliefs that is clearly,
clearly a burden. Religious liberty is in the First Amendment. It is not a second-class right. It is a
first-class right. Besides, this is basic common sense, or at least used to be.
Parents have the right to guide their kids on any sensitive topic like sex, sexuality, or yes, even gender.
It's not the school's job. It's your job, period.
Now, this should be a slam dunk for the parents, but I don't even know.
I mean, if the Supreme Court doesn't see that, parents won't just be losing this case.
We'll be losing even more freedom to raise our own kids.
this one is a very, very deep red crimson line in the sand that the Supreme Court cannot cross.
But we'll see. Apparently yesterday, did you hear any of the arguments, Stu?
Yeah, I read about them. It definitely seemed like the conservative justices were a bit skeptical of the idea that you get to force parents to keep their kids in these classes.
even if they oppose it when you're reading these books.
But, you know, of course, you never know.
We've seen crazy things happen in the Supreme Court before.
What's fascinating to me is, and what's the motivation here, Glenn, you tell me,
if you're going to have one of these situations where you have these books,
and as you point out, they are not like, okay, there happens to be a gay character in a book
about something else.
Like, it is, like, straight out, like, books about why you should.
think these lifestyles and choices are okay, right?
Like, it is straight out what they're doing to pre-K to fifth year, fifth graders.
So really, really young.
This is not like, you know, some of these situations they like to push out there like,
oh, you don't want high schoolers to read these books.
It's not even what they're talking about.
And what could be the motivation of not allowing parents to opt their kids out here?
They did offer that, as you noted.
They did offer that the first year.
that these books. It's a hassle. I love that. There's no innocuous, there's no innocuous,
uh, explanation for this. Right? It's just we want your kids to believe these things. Therefore,
we will force them to stay in class. What do you mean? It's hard to administer. There's all sorts of
things that would allow, uh, that you'd allow kids to leave class for. It's not hard to administer a kid
walking out and doing something else. Learning something different.
what's the motivation what's the innocuous tale here
there is none there is none
you go back to the Bible remember
Sodom and Gomorrah and uh you know the angels
coming to town they're looking just for one person
just what can we find one person
and uh
they go in and they find one
they find one and he sees the angels
and he's like come on come on get into the house get in the house
and he gets them into the house
and you know like you're you're not safe out there and then they start beating on the door
hey let us in we saw these two guys we saw these two guys uh and uh you need to you need to bring
them out here the answer was no no no i tell you i'll give you my daughter just not these guys
now like well you found that a little you know that's when the angels should have went and
like you know i don't know if we found the right guy here but it was a different time we'll give
you our daughter first give you our daughter
just leave them alone.
No.
No.
You had to comply.
If you were coming in to the city, you must comply.
They wanted to sodomize the angels.
No, thank you.
No, I'm, you know, I'm all, ah, sodomy.
I'm all life.
The doctor says I'm getting too much sodomy.
So, but that is what's happening again.
This, this, even if you don't believe in angels or you don't believe in the
story of the Bible. This is a very good parable. I haven't to believe it, but it's a very good parable
on what was going on. Let's just look at the Bible and just saying, what was a general thing?
You could describe it any way you want, but what was generally going on? The city had been taken over
by just absolute degenerates. And sodomy had become such a big deal. You know, they actually taught
my daughter in a Catholic school. It forced.
University. They taught my daughter that
Sodomy. Sodomy dad
was just their way of greeting
people.
You had a Catholic school teach
you that? That sodomy wasn't bad?
It was just the way they greeted people.
Hey, drop your pants. I want to greet you.
That's ridiculous.
Absolutely ridiculous.
But that's just the way it was.
Well, you know what? I don't want to live in a city
where they drop their pants to greet you.
I just don't, I think that's probably wrong.
speak for yourself you know even if that was even lots of people you have to understand you can't
opt out of it you need to to make sure that you're you're participating in the traditional
greetings of that society this this is this is a this is a philosophy that has no
forgiveness and you're either on board or you're not you're either 100% in or you're an outcast
and you will comply.
This is what the left just doesn't understand.
I shouldn't say the left understands this.
The average Democrat doesn't understand.
They think, because the average Democrat, I think, is still kind of thinking,
well, you know, I mean, I don't like all of that, but I want to be tolerant.
There is no tolerance with this.
There's none, and this should show you.
There is no reason to force these parents or force these kids.
to go against their parents' teaching other than you will participate.
You will comply.
That's all it is.
Yeah, I love to.
One of their outs on this from the left is basically to say,
look, if you don't want your kids to learn this stuff,
then you should homeschool or put your kids in Christian schools.
Now, of course, it's actually Christians, Jews, and Muslims.
One of the lead defendants here is a Muslim actually doesn't,
is trying to pull their kids out of this.
And they have.
Which is a fascinating argument from the left,
considering how hard they fought against school choice all this time.
I mean, they have tried to prevent it.
They've tried to prevent the rights for you to educate your own kids.
And they're trying to force you to pay for that education not once but twice.
That's their answer.
Like if you don't want to learn what we're teaching you,
then you get to pay twice as much for an education you're going to get to
outside of these walls.
I will tell you that I talk to some people over the last couple of days up here,
some of them with the Department of Education,
and they are thrilled to dismantle that thing.
They are very, very excited to dismantle the Department of Education.
They're on the inside, and they're like, it's freaking them out,
and we're shutting this thing down.
And it couldn't be more exhilarating, quite honestly.
I mean, tell me what the Department of Education has done.
Look at how they are taking on private schools and they're saying you don't have a right to private education or you have a right, but we're not going to, we're not going to give you any vouchers.
We're not going to spend any.
And look at what we're spending money on, a system that is getting worse and worse and worse.
And we're trapping our children into slavery.
If your kids can't read, I mean, go back to the 1800s.
do you know that it was, I believe it was the death penalty to teach someone a slave how to read?
Did you know that?
It was a crime of the highest order to teach a slave to read.
Why?
Because if they can read, they can think.
If they can think they're no longer going to be a slave.
That's why.
So this progressive, these people have hated, have hated the,
African American forever. It's the same people that started the clan. It's the progressive
movement that tried to wipe out every black with Planned Parenthood and they're still doing it and
getting away with it. Is there a reason why all of the abortion clinics happen to fall in the
black zip codes? Is there a reason that that's where most of them are? Gee, I don't know.
They're still doing it. They were the ones that were all.
over in Germany telling you how to get rid of the Jews. Yes, that was an American thing,
not a German thing. That was us. My gosh, these people have hated and hated and hated.
And then the guy Johnson, who stopped the civil rights movement. He stopped the Civil Rights Act
in 1959. He was the guy who stopped it. Then just four or five years later, he signs it in.
and he's proud to do it.
And then he signs the,
the great, what do you call it?
The great society bills.
So we have a great society
that's going to help the black man.
And what does it do?
It tears their families apart.
It drives them further into poverty.
It, it miseducates their children.
So they're just ninkum poops.
And then, by the way, white people are ninkum poops as well
because we get the same damn education.
Who is this hurt?
hurt. This has hurt the black man more than the white man. And these people, they still get away
with it. Now, ask yourself a question. If you're paying taxes and this is your country,
why the hell can't you say, I'm not educating my kid there and I'm not paying you for that
education because I think that education is evil. I think that education is so evil because look what it's
doing to our kids. It's teaching them
that they should be slaves.
It's not teaching them
how to think. It's teaching
them what you want them to think.
No, not going to do it anymore.
All right, back in just a second.
Let me tell you about our sponsor.
Our sponsor, this
half hour is
something that I don't even, oh, there it is, relief factor.
It always starts with something small. Little stiffness
when you reach for your shoes or that
unmistakable.
when you get up from the chair.
That's a sound you never meant to make,
but you get up to the chair and you're like,
mm.
It just comes out.
It's not that you're old.
It's your body is sending you subtle,
grunty messages that suggest otherwise.
And you can try to ignore them,
but why not fight back?
Let your body fight back.
Help your body fight back.
Relief factor is a 100% drug-free way
to tackle pain from inflammation.
It is a daily supplement created by doctors
that helps your body feel more like your body.
again, millions have tried it, hundreds of thousands stick with it every month because they feel
the difference. I'm one of them. When you're dealing with pain day in and day out, you need a solution
that's actually going to work and not going to negatively impact the other parts of your life.
The solution is relief factor. For 1995, you can try relief factors. Three week quick start. It's less than a dollar a day.
Call 8004 relief. 800, the number four relief. It's relief factor.com. 10 seconds, station ID.
So on my way to the White House here in a couple of hours, I'm going to be with the president today.
I'd love to hear what you are interested in.
I'd love to ask a few questions that are directed by you.
I've been working on these questions for the president here for the last week,
but I'd love to hear from you 888727BECK.
What is it that you are most interested in hearing asked of the president?
Um, it's, it's so interesting asking the president questions because I remember, I was in the Oval
office with, uh, George W. Bush and he was, he was not happy. And, uh, I had questioned, you know,
what is happening to the, what's, what's happening in the war, Mr. President. And I had just
got on the air and I don't remember what I said to piss him off, but he said something. And I said,
that's not the way the president behaves. And, uh, so he calls me in the office and I'm sitting there and he
says, you know, a lot of people.
think they know exactly how it is like to be the president they have no idea what it's like to be
the president of the united states you don't know what i'm dealing with and and in some ways it was true
i mean it's no excuse you have to be better at it than anybody else but the president can't answer
certain things like i i really i really want to know can this be saved can this be saved
because we are looking at such economic we're we're looking at looking at
into the abyss, into the abyss.
And I don't think the American people really understand that.
And it's going to take all of us understanding it and then choosing, okay, I'm going to, I'll take
the hard road.
I'll take the hard medicine now.
Used to be able, in the old days, you know, FDR could get on and say, look, this is
going to be hard.
This is going to be a shlog.
But I'll take it on for my.
generation so our children don't have to deal with it. I'm not sure that people are, I think they're
willing to do it, but there will always be somebody on the outside that says, that's not necessary.
You don't have to have, you don't have to do that. You can do it all. You can have it all.
No, no, no, no, no. You don't understand. We'll put your social security over here in a lockbox.
And people will want to believe the easy road.
So I've been wrestling with questions on, on, you know, how to, how to make it.
easy for the president to tell the real truth on the economy, which I think he does, but I don't think
enough people hear it, that as he says, it's going to be a bumpy ride. Yeah, it's going to be a
lot more than a bumpy ride. It's going to be a tough, tough schlogue, but we have to do it. This
interview, by the way, will air tonight 9 p.m. Eastern only on Blaze TV. This is Glenn Beck.
That's so amazing because I am

But tonight is a, he's going to be an epic interview with the president at the White
House.
So don't, don't miss it.
I go in to do that interview later this afternoon.
It'll air at 9 p.m. Eastern time.
It'll be unedited.
and you'll be able to see him.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not like you're dealing with Joe Biden anymore.
No.
Yeah.
It's just going to let it ride.
Let's see what he says.
You know, I have a lot of things to talk to him about.
Like one thing that I would like to see, you know, that I don't, I don't see anybody talking about.
You know, the president is changing the economy.
He is changing.
He's getting away from this World War II.
nightmare that, you know, might have been right for, you know, 1948, but it's certainly not right
for today, where we were taking care of Europe. We were giving them all kinds of special breaks.
We were paying for their defense, yada, yada, yada, yada. Instead, now America needs to take care
of herself, and we all need to be self-sufficient. Well, you know, we're talking about AI a lot,
but what people are not talking about or something that Eric Schmidt came to the White House, sorry, to the Capitol Hill and testified a couple of days ago about the power usage.
We have a significant problem with power.
Now, I want you to understand, everyone will tell you we cannot lose the race for AI.
Have you heard anyone say anything other than that, Stu?
No. Anyone who talks about it says we can't just let China or someone else win.
it. It's 100% universal. We must, must, uh, win. Okay. So where are we going to get all the power?
Here's what Eric said. Many people project demand for our industry will go from three percent,
three percent of total energy production right now. We're at three percent for all of our server
farms and everything else for Silicon Valley uses three percent.
he says it's going to go from 3% to 99% of all energy usage in the next three years.
An additional 29 gigawatts by 2027 and 67 more gigawatts by 2030.
He is now saying that we have to build hundreds of nuclear power plants.
He said there are some plants that they will recover.
require most plants will require one nuclear power plant per server farm some of them may require
up to three nuclear power plants per server farm so this is really good in one way because
we will have the electricity that we need assuming we start to build these things quickly i mean
what's going to happen stew it takes 25 years to build a nuclear power plant how is it we
We're expected it all to compete.
We have dismantled our, we've dismantled our coal fire plants all over the country.
We are still not digging up coal and, and fuel as much as we need to.
We need to be open and open valves on absolutely everything.
That's something that Eric Schmidt said yesterday, too.
Now, remember, this is a Silicon Valley guy.
I'm sure he was green, green, green for a long time.
But now he's saying, we need absolutely every source.
of energy because we are going to need 99% by 2027.
2027.
What do you think your power price is going to be?
What do you think about rolling blackouts and brownouts?
We have got to be, and this would create so many jobs, so many jobs, good paying jobs,
going out and building all these nuclear power.
plans. Is this an opportunity? But will we do it for Trump and the Trump administration? I mean,
because it feels also like talking about positives going on offense rather than being on defense.
There's been a lot of defense talk lately. And going on offense and saying, hey, we can be the
best place for your company to exist because we're going to be the only place on earth that has
the power it needs. Yep, yep. The only other country that is doing it is China and they're building
them like crazy. This is something that we have, Donald Trump could surpass FDR in power generation.
Remember, most people in 1919 in Woodrow Wilson, I think 1% of the population had a refrigerator by 1930.
I think that number was like 80% had refrigeration. When FDR, K.R. K.
in the only places that didn't have stuff was there was no electricity in these small little rural
towns so he went and he started building power plants and dams and everything else to generate
all the power and then started laying power lines this is something that donald trump could do and it is
time i mean our grid hasn't really been updated since fDR we're still using the same stuff and
you know a lot of it is just out so outdated and so bad
our grid is so incredibly unstable and not built for what's coming next.
And I just don't know how he's going to get it done, but this is a big win for him,
big win for him.
You know how many jobs would be created if we introduced and said we have to build them
in the next three years?
It would be enormous, enormous and exciting.
Yeah. Yeah, exciting. I mean, you know, look, having power is the basis of civilization.
This is not a small little thing. And it really is one of the foundational elements you need for a modern civilization.
And we sit here and we talk about all the things we can't do, all the natural resources that we have, we can't utilize, all the things that we need to stop, right?
We need to stop making gas powered cars.
We need to stop getting our own coal and using it.
We need to stop building nuclear plans.
This is a way of saying, no, we're on offense.
We're America.
You know, the left is trying to right now, they're in the middle of a rebrand.
And one of their, you know, as we talked about last hour,
they're still seemingly stuck in a lot of these crazy woke things that burned them last time.
Hopefully they stick with those forever.
But one of the proposals being floated around on the left is this idea of,
abundance that's the name of the book that kind of lays these concepts out and it's an
idea of of trying to take away what the right has always had which is this idea of
saying hey we're looking to grow we want better things we want the Americans to have a
better more fruitful more wealthy more you know having more and we'll decide what we
want to do when we have more and the left was always saying hey no we need to restrict
We need to calm that down.
You don't need all this.
You don't need the bigger house.
You don't need the bigger car.
And that's not the fundamental number one thing we should care about.
But it was always there for us to say, hey, all these shelves are stocked.
Everything you need is right there.
You make the decisions on what you want.
You'll make the decisions and prioritize on what you're going to spend your money on and what you're going to spend your time on.
And the left is trying to take that back right now.
They're seeing an opportunity because of a lot of people on the right who are saying,
no, actually, maybe we shouldn't have those things available.
Maybe you don't need them.
And I'm nervous.
If they decide to go down this road, there is a real vulnerability to the conservative movement if the left takes that away from us and they want to.
Stated again more succinctly.
Your concern again?
My concern is, and this is a real thing being talked about on the left in sort of their higher level academic circles, is the approach to say to take a way that, I don't know.
No, it was a, I would say, pretty consistent with that Reagan optimism, right?
The shining city on the hill.
The idea that we can do it.
We can do it.
We can accomplish all these incredible things, not through government, but through you.
You can do it.
We'll have all these things.
And you should expect from your country an abundance, not a scarce city.
I'm trying to figure out where are you seeing that on the left?
I mean, there's a major bestseller that just came out called abundance.
That was the, and it was from the left.
It was from two guys on the left.
And I don't know that they'll win.
I mean, but, you know, Ezra Klein, Derek Thompson, they're pretty well-known.
It's really hard to, that's really hard to sell.
I mean, look at Barack Obama.
I know.
Look at Barack Obama.
He's got, how many houses?
Three, where he's building a seawall around one of his houses, where you can't build
sea walls in Hawaii.
But he's building a seawall around one of them.
that's his part-time house.
His other part-time houses in Nantucket,
one foot above sea level.
One, count them, one foot above sea level.
And he's got a third house someplace else.
I think it's here in Washington.
And he's always talking about, hey, you know,
there comes a time when enough is enough
and you have too much.
When is that, Barack?
Because you're telling us that we shouldn't have an SUV.
You've got three houses.
See, this whole abundance.
thing has never been aimed at them. It's always been aimed at us. They believe in abundance,
but only for the right people. The right people get it. And that's, that is the biggest difference
in abundance is they've been saying that we all have to, you know, pinch back, but they don't
actually mean it. You know, at least the, at least the Republicans are like, yeah, I'm corrupt
as hell and making all kinds of money on the side, but you can too. You know, I mean,
It's just crazy.
Yeah, no, I agree.
I think, look, they've never actually believed any of these things, right?
But like, what was their approach?
Forever, we've heard the approach of, hey, your TVs are too big.
Your cars, they're too, they have too much of what you need.
The SUVs are too large.
Your homes are too large.
You don't need that air conditioning.
You should turn it to 72 degrees.
Now, I can bet you at neither Martha's Vineyard or in Hawaii.
Barack Obama never had his head.
house set to some uncomfortable temperature he didn't like.
Well, but they tried to.
He might have because he's right on the ocean and you get that lovely ocean breeze that
most of us don't get.
That's true.
That's true.
But I mean, that was, it was always something they tried to implement on the people, right?
It was always, we get what we want, but you need to sacrifice for the greater good.
And that's a thing that just doesn't connect exactly with the American people, not because
they're not charitable because they are. They want to do good things for other people. They will
come together and do incredible, accomplish incredible things, which they have done. But it was always
this idea that you would be able to, it was part of the American deal, right? We do these things.
We work hard. Maybe we work harder. Maybe we work more hours. Maybe we put up with more crap,
but with the idea that we can, you know, shape our own future, the left is trying to take that
messaging back. Now, I'm with you and that I am not confident that viewpoint will win out on the
left because there's a bunch of insane people. But it is a vulnerability of the right if we go
down this road of trying to encourage the same type of scarcity talk that the left has been
engaging in. Okay. Okay. So let's let's take that. Next hour, I want to tell you a story that fits right
in here on what the leftists are doing now in San Francisco because it's very similar to what you're
talking about. And this morning when I read it, I was like, that'll never work. But maybe you're
right. Maybe it will. I don't know. But it's insane. We'll talk about that and so much more coming up.
Don't forget President Trump, an interview at the White House tonight at nine with President Trump and I.

Title thieves have a faster way of doing this.
With one forged deed filed online, they can claim your property before really they get up and have breakfast.

I'm going to spend another hour with you.
And then I've got to get to the White House to interview the president.
And I'm looking forward to that.
love to hear your comments. We pulled our audience over the last few days and been asking people,
you know, what are you most interested in? And most people are interested in Doge. That seems to be
the hot button with this audience. So I'm going to be talking to him about Doge. In particular,
yesterday it was announced that it looks like Elon Musk is going to be reducing his time in Washington
on Doge next month. And what does that mean? And is he happy with the amount that has been cut?
But, you know, they've really dramatically reduced the amounts of cuts that they're looking for.
And I find that a little sad, quite honestly, but I'm not sure why that is happening.
Is he getting pushback from the agencies?
Is he getting pushback from Congress?
Where is he getting this pushback from?
And is he going to just keep plowing through it?
What happens when Elon Musk leaves?
We'll talk to him about that.
Let me go to, is it Renee in Texas or ready?
Renee.
Renee.
Hi, Renee.
What's up?
Hi.
Tariffs are killing my small business.
And it's not even the tariff amounts.
It's the way that they were implemented very suddenly and very haphazardly.
The shipping companies were not prepared for what was coming.
I had shipments in the air.
I import most of my goods for my small business specialty martial arts company from Hungary and from Poland.
And UPS and FedEx, they started swapping steel tariffs on shipments that contain zero steel
because it's coded as a sporting good.
And when I asked, hey, why are y'all doing that?
They said, well, we didn't know what was in there.
And so to be safe, they coded it as steel.
So I'm paying $5,000 in customs for a package that normally would have cost me $600 to $800
in tariffs or customs.
And when I said, can I get that back?
They said, well, you have to file a claim with customs, and it may be four to six weeks to get that back.
I'm currently out about $30,000.
I'm going to, I will ask the president about this, because there's a lot of tariff talk that I want to get to today.
I put that down.
I am going to put it on my list of things to talk to them about.
I feel for you.
I really do feel for you.
It's been a little sloppy.

going to be airing tonight uh on blaze tvdc tv.com slash glen by the way promo code glen if you'd like
to join blaze tv and save 20 bucks do you have kind of an approach here at this point do you know
what you're going to ask him no uh um
I mean, I do. I've got pages and pages of questions and notes.
But now I have to, you know, it's going to take me an hour or two just to whittle it down to the questions I think I can get in.
You know, I've got, I don't know, 45 minutes or an hour with the president.
And that's from the moment he walks in to the moment he leaves.
So you don't have a lot of time.
And, you know, every single word counts.
I know, I'm going to start with this.
I asked just for a list of the things that he accomplished in the first 100 days.
And we got to page 89.
I'll have all of them tonight.
This is the first 80, I think 89 days.
Look at that.
That's a lot.
That's just a list of the accomplishments of the first 89 days.
That's what would you say that?
Four inches thick?
I mean, this guy has made more progress than any other president or many presidents combined in the first.
100 days. Nobody's done what what he's done. But, you know, one of the things, and I don't know
how I'm going to, because I can't ask him directly. So I kind of try to ask him several questions
all the way through that'll kind of give you a sense of, are we looking for a reprieve?
Is that where we're going to get a four-year reprieve if the economy doesn't turn around
fast enough? Because I believe the president can turn it around. But if it doesn't turn it
around fast enough, or if people don't understand that he is changing the entire structure
of the world, and he's trying to do it in two years, really.
We're going to be left with a reprieve and not a fundamental change.
And does he think that's really possible, especially without Congress?
I mean, I'm going to rail on Congress.
I don't know if he'll join me on that, but
I really want to know why he isn't pounding Congress into the dirt.
I mean, Congress is, they're not helpful at all.
And no matter what anybody says, I've talked to enough people just in the last few days here
to tell you that anybody who tells you that the Senate and the House leadership is on the
president's side, they don't know their butt from their elbow.
They have no idea what they're talking about.
They are not on his side.
They are not working with him.
And that's obvious.
I mean, they should be passing, you know, I know this is going to be, you know,
he said, I'm going to pass the largest tax cut. Well, he's not. He's, what the Congress is doing
is he's actually, he's thwarting the largest tax increase in American history that would come
next year. Well, the country needs a tax cut, a tax plan that will actually encourage spending on
business, encourage, you know, spending on, um, uh, on creating jobs.
I also want to talk to him about energy.
I mean, what do you think, Stu?
What are the questions you want to know?
I think the economy is a big one and how he's going to kind of go forward with that.
We talked about having that sort of positive agenda.
I think that would be helpful.
It seems like the markets are liking that today.
There's a little bit of a, maybe a little bit of an approach change over the past couple of days.
And that seems to be helping quite a bit.
I think that's a big one.
I think certainly energy is a big one.
Department of Education is another one.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Go back to the, go back to the positive.
What do you mean by that?
Like, we talked about energy going in and saying,
look, I'm going to build all these nuclear power plants in the next three years.
Because testimony on the Hill yesterday, day before yesterday,
from the president of, you know, former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, was pretty clear.
We are going to, right now, the cloud services,
if you will, the compute power for all of the big, you know, computer cloud servers, they require
currently 3% of all of the electricity that is used in the United States.
3%.
In three years, they will require 99% of our energy.
Well, there's no way that can happen without us having blackouts and brownouts and, you know,
the rest of the country just starving itself from electricity.
That'll just collapse everything.
So a positive way to deal with this is to say,
I am going to do the biggest energy push ever in American history.
And he's already done it for oil and coal.
Now he just needs to say, I'm cutting the red tape.
I'm going to make sure that they're safe.
But there's new technology now with nuclear power plants.
And we're going to drop them in city after city.
after city where there's cloud servers are going to be because if Eric Schmidt is right and I believe
he is, each one of these cloud servers by 2030 will need a nuclear, full size nuclear power
plant themselves. That's incredible. It's incomprehensible. But yeah, as you point out,
instead of saying, like an alternate approach to that would be, hey, we need to stop these AI companies
from doing this, we need to make sure that they are not taking a work.
That's the, I would say, what the left would typically do in a situation like this.
They would try to stop the companies from growing.
They would try to stop them from innovating.
They would say, you need to do more with less.
And I think the conservative argument there is to say, hey, no, we're going to give you
the tools that you need.
We're going to make it easy for these companies to build nuclear power plants in a safe way,
of course.
But reliable energy that can fuel these things will be great.
I think the same thing, you know, I think if you look at Trump's economic plan, he wants to bring, let's say, manufacturing back to the United States.
Well, there's a couple ways that you can do that, and both of them are completely consistent with what Trump wants to do.
One of them is, obviously, tariffs.
That's what has had almost all the attention.
I think there's a reason why the media focuses on that.
I think they rather talk about the tariffs because they're not as popular.
The other side of it is incentivizing companies to come here.
It's cutting regulation.
It's cutting taxes.
It's making the United States into the government.
greatest place to do business. People will want to come here. And the Democrats have worked
really hard to take that impression away from the world over the past 20 years. And Trump,
I think in his first term, did a good job at encouraging that sort of development here. I think
it went pretty well with the economy. And I think like that just, it's just a, I think he believes
that still. He just, it has then been the focus as much of the messaging. And I think that could help.
this is the problem and I'm going to try to get him to explain this I I can't ask him I don't think I can ask him directly because the president of you say look how much trouble will we in you know and is this fixable of course he's going to say yeah it's absolutely fixable but he he needs to articulate or somebody needs to articulate how close to the edge of the abyss we are I mean I you know Stu you know I have I've talked about this economic stuff over and over
again, I had a conversation with somebody who I can't say who, but they believe me,
they absolutely know what's happening with our dollar and the economy and everything else,
okay?
An official in the government that that's, you know, that's pretty much what they do.
And I said, look, I'm trying to get my arms around this because I'm thinking about, you
know, why he called it Liberation Day.
And I think it's because he's changing the whole system, you know, that was set up after
World War II, yada, yada, yada.
And I said, and I don't think people understand that if we, if he fails, this is it.
This is our last chance to save America.
That, that we're over.
And this individual put their hand on my shoulder and said, no.
Listen, we are over.
So he said the same thing I did.
He just wanted to make sure that I understood exactly what I was saying.
And I found that to be a little terrifying.
And I don't think people truly understand this is it.
This is it.
if you if you want to have a country left we're going to go and experience tremendous pain
and i mean ronald regan talked about this um you know there's going to come a time when none of
the choices are good and everybody wants to eat around the edges and not take the whole pie
you have to have the whole pie you're going to you can't eat around the edges anymore
you've got to fix the entire thing.
And that is going to be really painful and dangerous.
And I don't know if I can get him to talk about that.
I mean, how would you ask him?
Do you think that's the way he sees it?
Do you think he, because it does seem like with like the types of maneuvers he's made
when it comes to foreign trade, for example,
he really does see not just something we need to tweak, right?
Like an absolute monumental crisis.
right yeah so do you know because I that is a a big change and I think slightly different than
maybe the perception was going in and that's you know something he's going to have to kind of deal
with with the American people and it's why maybe you know he's having issues with you know some of the
independence losing support among independence I don't think he's going to see you know I don't
think that's the way he runs his operation. I don't think he looks at it and says, okay, well,
this isn't polling well right now, so I don't want to do it. No, he doesn't. I think he looks at it.
He sees himself, and thank God, he sees himself as, um, if I don't do it, no one will. And I think
that's true. Um, I don't know of any, but Donald Trump is completely unique. You know, he's been forged in
the fire where he wasn't in 2016. He is now. I mean, what are you going to do to him? You try to
him in jail. He tried to throw his family in jail. You've tried to destroy his business, his reputation.
They've called him every name under the sun. They tried to kill him not once but twice.
I mean, what are you going to do to this guy? He doesn't care. And so I really believe that
this is so far beyond him. He knows, look, I'm here at this.
time for a reason and it's to save the country in the way I believe it needs to be saved.
And so it is a complete departure from the Great Reset.
But it is a great reset.
The world has been shaping us for this reset.
I've been talking about this since 2008.
They shaped us for this reset to where they would manage the decline to a certain point and then it would kind of fall apart and then collapse
into this new system that they had built.
Well, he's dismantling that at the same time
trying to put the system back into place
that they had taken apart.
It's, I mean, it's, if he can pull this off,
it's going to be a miracle.
We'll be the first people in the history of the world
to pull this off.
And it's, I mean, it's an interesting time to be alive.
Going to be interesting to see how well this works out.
All right.

Okay, Patriot Mobile. Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
There's only one time you'll ever hear me say I'm pro-choice, and that's when it comes to, you know, the economy, wireless providers.
I'm absolutely, there's tons of good options out there now.
Most of them not so good, but the big guys run the same play.
book, they take your money, then they turn around and fund every radical cause you can ever think of.
You know, you want to be pro-life, pro-freedom, pro-faith? Too bad. Your phone bill money is out there
marching in the streets in the opposite direction. That's why there's Patriot mobile. It's America's only
Christian-conservatives wire-de-list provider. They offer the same nationwide coverage that you're used to
on the same cell towers, but with a company that supports free speech, religious liberty, the
sanctity of life, and our veterans and first responders. You can keep your number or keep your phone, or you can
upgrade to a new one or both.
The best part is a portion of every single thing that you spend, their profit, goes towards
causes you actually believe in.

You know, talking about the Great Reset.
Did you see that Klaus Schwab has resigned?
Hmm.
Sad to see him go, Glenn.
He's done such good work at the World Economic Forum.
He's been able to lead us into this new world that we've all been asking for and demanding.
Sad to see him go.
Especially, he's done some really good work, apparently on the buttocks of several women, which, you know, I don't know.
Let's just say they were nice little political.
light, pats on the butt, you know, as they pass by, hey, sweetheart, how are you doing?
But apparently he has created a very obscene culture at the World Economic Forum.
And now, who would have thunk it?
You know, every time he comes to town, prostitutes, you know, go through the roof because
they're shipped in from all over the world.
But, no, I'm sure it's a very pro-woman, you know, he really cares.
He really cares deeply.
But apparently he's in trouble for sexual harassment.
And also, you know, some problems with some funds.
Apparently, he used some funds to buy big houses.
But it's no big deal, right?
I mean, he can get away with it.
He's Klaus Schwab.
I hate these people so much.
I hate these people so much.
I mean, God, the hypocrisy of these people just kills me.
Kills me.
That's one of the other things I want to ask.
about is
is the Great Reset
and how,
I mean,
six years ago,
you remember when we started
talking about the Great Reset
and everybody said,
that's controversial
and I'll look at it.
Everybody knows about DEI and CRT
and everything else.
Everything they said,
you have the court system
now defending
and saying,
you can't cut that.
Wait a minute,
I thought it was a conspiracy theory.
I'm just cutting conspiracies.
Isn't that what you want?
It's incredible.
Yeah.
I also want to know,
know is he going to stand up to the courts yeah what does that mean exactly too i don't i don't
know obviously there's right now we have we know six supreme court justices that were uh that
were actually named by republicans right three of them by president trump himself what does that mean
as far because i know that they took a stance against him for example deporting uh certain people
uh and um they don't i can't believe it that sort of battle is going to be fast
These people, when we were saying, we should vet people, when they're coming in, ask them,
hey, here's an idea. COVID. Can we see if they've had their vaccine? No, you can't do that.
Now, when we're trying to ship them back home, oh, we've got to have a sit down with them.
We have to have a formal interview. You know, before we get rid of them, we have to really sit down and talk to it.
No, no problem, bringing them in. None. Riddled with disease. Not a problem.
Hang on just a second. I think you left some of your fingers behind. They just fell off. You don't want to just take those with you as you enter the United States? No problem coming in. All kinds of problems leaving. How does that make sense? A lot of this has to do with your hatred of Maryland fathers. You have always been against people who are just fathers in Maryland. And I don't know. I was a father in Maryland for a while. My daughter was born in Maryland. And I was the dad. So I was a Maryland father. Wow. So you can't be deported. That's apparently the rule. I will say,
Did you see the explanation?
I love this of the domestic violence thing where, like, you know, she filed a restraining order against her against him for domestic violence.
Everyone's like, hey, he beat his wife.
She says now, no, no, no, that's not true.
She did so.
She filed a domestic violence restraining order against her husband, quote, in case things escalated, end quote.
Oh, that happened.
Tanya did that to me last week.
You know, she's like, I need a restraining.
order. I think he might kill me. He's not threatening to kill me, but in case he does. This is
Glenn Beck. Gosh, hysterical. All right, I'm a big Second Amendment guy. I believe in your right to
defend yourself, but I mean, I have to admit, there are situations when a firearm is not the
best option. Say you're driving to work, listen to this program, full volume, windows down,
and all of a sudden you're stopped at dead traffic, and some crazy blue-haired lady,
don't even know that she was even in the vicinity. She comes up and says start in your,
hit in your hood with a with a baseball bat now hey lady i don't think you need to no i know exactly
what i mean and she's just beating with a baseball you know that might you don't want to shoot her um but

Here's something I didn't think I'd ever say.
I had to spend more time in Washington, D.C.
I've learned so much in the last couple of days.
Being able to meet with me with so many people.
And then, you know, in the off times I went to a couple of days ago,
I went to the American Art Museum, Smithsonian's American Portraiture or something.
What a dump that place is.
My gosh.
My gosh, what a dump.
and so woke.
I can't take it.
I just can't take it.
And I don't know.
I think I'll talk to the president off air
because I don't think anybody else cares
but he might.
It's just a nightmare.
Just a nightmare.
By the way, thanks to Steve Bannon.
I was on Steve Bannon show on Monday.
When did that air?
Yesterday?
Yeah, I aired yesterday.
I went in Monday to do his show.
And he aired it yesterday.
Interesting.
Really, really interesting.
We disagree on things.
But he also agrees with me that we're in trouble economically, where people need to understand where we are in the grand scheme of things.
And there is a serious mental illness problem happening on the streets of Washington, D.C.
I mean, when you get into the Capitol building, it's even worse.
But on the streets, it is a serious mental illness.
I mean, I've never seen anything like it.
My wife has been with me this week, and she said, I've only heard say this once.
She said it about 10 years ago in San Francisco, we went, and people were taking a dump in the street, you know, right as we're walking.
And it was just very dangerous feeling.
And it was a nice section of San Francisco.
And it doesn't exist anymore.
But at that time, there still was a nice section of San Francisco.
And she said, I'll never come to the city again.
She said, I would never walk alone.
in this city. And I said, well, I'd be with you. And she's like, nah, walking with you is like walking
alone. And so we're walking down the streets of Washington, D.C. And this guy starts to circle us on a
bike. And he's got to be about 30 years old. And he just, he starts circling us, you know,
riding his bike around us as we're walking. And he's like, I'm going to kill me some white people
today. I'm killing
white people today. And I'm like
I know, I hate
those white people, huh? And
he just kept circling
and said, you know, could be you.
Could be you. And he drives
around and he's just like staring at me. Could be you
today. You never know.
And I thought, that's either
mental, well, it is absolutely mental illness
or that is a societal thing
that has caused this guy to think that
that's totally cool to do that.
But it is, it's, it's
really bad. But the good news is
the Democrats are here for you. There is
a story in Politico that I absolutely
love. Here's the headline, and I quote,
there's a reckoning to be
had. San Francisco
Dems move to push the National Party
to the center. Now,
that's all you need to know, okay?
I mean,
the gutter in which
the Democrats find themselves now,
if the Democrats
from San Francisco is
leading they're they're the ones leading the way it's how much trouble they're in the story says
quote they're attempting to lead an uh by a national conversation around what it takes for democrats
to win by rejecting what they deride as performative politics and virtue signaling and embracing
pragmatism and quality of life issues really this is rich uh democrats from the uh capital
of left-wing lunacy,
now are claiming they want to drag their party back
to the middle.
And in this story from Politico,
they say they're now interested,
get this,
on fully staffing police departments,
erasing the local regulations
that drive up the cost of building new housing,
and focusing on public schools
and closing the learning gaps
for black and Hispanic students
in math and reading.
Now, this is,
wild because I seem to remember that these are exactly the same people that just did the opposite.
They're the ones shouting in the streets to defund the police burning buildings down,
yanking our founding father's name off of school buildings, passing Gaza-like resolutions like they're running the UN,
turning our cities into giant performance art galleries of needles and poop.
These are the ones, and now they're like, you know what, maybe we should have a few more cops.
and we should make sure our kids can read again and do math.
Really? So were you defund, when you were saying the defunding the policing, was that all,
were you joking about that? Or were we just joking about the math and other subjects being racist?
Because I'm, according to the Politico's story, they're also calling for imposing potential age limits on elected officials.
Why? He's sharp as attack. No, no, no, he was sharp as attack. There was nothing to see there.
Did you see the Elizabeth Warren interview she did with some?
Oh my gosh.
So good.
We talked about it yesterday.
It is, that was one of the most revealing things I've ever seen.
I mean, she actually laughs.
She can't stop herself from laughing at the concept that he was fine, even though she said it publicly over and over and over again.
Play that, Sarah.
Do you regret saying that President Biden had a mental acuity?
He had a sharpness to him.
You said that up until July of last year.
I said what I believe to be true.
And you think he was as sharp as you?
I said I had not seen decline.
And I hadn't at that point.
You did not see any decline from 2024 Joe Biden to 2021, Joe Biden?
Not when I said that.
The thing is, he, look, he was sharp, he was on his feet.
I saw him, live event.
I had meetings with him a couple of times.
Senator, on his feet is not praise.
He can speak in sentences, is not praise.
Fair enough.
Fair enough.
Look, it is, the question is,
whatever politician says, look, are we gonna do now?
Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, that's a great, it's a great clip.
He does a great job interviewing her.
He does.
As well, pushing her on this,
because it's so obvious and she's,
it's so comical that she can't even keep a straight face.
We use that term a lot.
You can't keep a straight face.
That's a great example of it.
She legitimately,
multiple times,
laughs at her own public statements.
Like it's okay.
Like it's absolutely okay.
And we're all in this joke together.
We all get it.
He's sharp as a attack.
The guy is a Roomba stuck in the corner of the room, man.
Just pounding into the,
I mean, for the love of Pete.
Now they're saying, you know, we've got to have an age limit for, why?
Weekend of Bernie strategy with the new Bernie is, you know, maybe suboptimal right now.
This is crazy.
And I want to tell you that this is what you need to know about this.
There is zero sincerity in this at all.
You have no reason to believe this is sincere from the Democratic Party at all.
But just pretend for a second that it is sincere.
It would be enormous.
It would be an enormous breakthrough.
The heavens would part.
the angels would sing if they actually de-radicalized the Democratic Party, but they have no
intention to do that, no intention to do that. Here's what's going on. San Francisco Democrats are
calling their strategy new pragmatism. What does that mean? In other words, you don't have any
real principles, just a willingness to rebrand according to which way the wind is blowing so you can
look like you just want to get things done. They're not sorry for the clown show virtual signaling
policies. Look how sad she is. Look at how much remorse she has. She's laughing at how she lied about the guy
who had the finger on the nuclear button. Nobody should laugh at that. Nobody. Nobody. They are just
terrified of losing again. Look. Anytime a politician says, look, look, they're lying to you.
San Francisco wants to be the model for Democrats to win back union workers, immigrants, young people.
Voters they lost because they were too busy arguing that standardized tests are hate crimes.
Good luck with that pivot, guys. Good luck. Good luck. You can't just, I, as a guy who has worked with chalkboards for a very long time, you can't just wipe the chalkboard clean.
the whole country has seen your math
and I'm sorry
you have to scrub it clean
and you're busy scrubbing
but we all saw what you wrote on the chalkboard
and none of this adds up
doesn't make any sense
whatsoever
okay back in just a second
first let me tell you about our sponsor
it's American financing
if you've looked at your credit card statement and think
wow okay all right who stole my identity
and then paid for groceries gas
electric bill yeah no that was you unfortunately because that's the only one that's paying for those
things seems to be you congratulations you are paying now 20% interest just to stay alive this is
got to stop if you're like most americans you're juggling multiple high interest debts wondering
why your paycheck vanishes faster than the the leftovers in your break room fridge at work
uh this is where american financing comes in there
a family-owned mortgage company that actually helps you get out of debt. They'll work with you
to consolidate your high-interest loans, pay off that credit card balance, and put you back in
control. And they don't work on commission. Their only incentive is to help you save money,
which I have to say is a wildly underrated experience these days. Take 10 minutes out of your
day and give them a call. They're going to see you through, they're going to go through your finances,
make all the recommendations. It could save you hundreds of dollars a month, maybe even as much as
$1,000. It's American financing. You call them today at 800906 2440. 8009062440. It's
Americanfinancing.net. NMLS-182334. NMLS Consumer Access.org. APR for Rits in the 5 starts

terms. Do you ever see a liberal's hands smoother than a snake on oil? Guess they're more worried
about the meaning of the word female,
than the word work.
I was on with Steve Bannon
yesterday. I recorded it
on Monday, and here's a little
bit of that. I wonder why
he hasn't taken Congress
to the woodshed. The only
chance we have is cut our
regulation dramatically.
Pass the Raines Act.
Okay? Pass the Raines Act.
Pass that. Cut
the regulation
at least by half.
then give unleash the animal spirits yes give me 15 15 15 15 in taxes 15 percent capital gains 15
15 15 15 for the average person 50 make it 17 17 17 17 I don't care but that incentivizes
the entrepreneur I can start my own business 70 percent of all jobs begin with small businesses
yes we've got to incentivize those people and that's Congress and they're sitting around
like they did after they won the tea party they're going to be responsible for losing this whole thing
they've got to move what do you say about the investigations the deep state everything we know about
brunnon okay talk about that we only got a couple of minutes our audience of one thing they get
furious about is and pam and cash as good as you get what's the problem
your audience the same way they're steamed oh yeah um you know you can do an awful lot of stuff but until you
start putting bad guys in jail i don't believe you i don't believe you and you know a sense of urgency
it's not like we have this forever no i mean if heem jeffreys wins in 18 months which is not
aside the possible we're done they're going to impeach trump right about done so where where is the
doj okay i know cash quite well i believe cash i don't know pam okay that i'm not thrown dispersions
on her but something's not right why aren't you
unleashing is that the deep state has them by the throat what is it but it's got to be solved you
you have no is that a message that you think you i don't want to get into your private conversation
of the president but is that something you would highlight that oh yeah oh yeah you you think there
needs a bit a sense of urgency about this what does any of it mean why is congress taking so much
time off right now traditional two weeks of vacations or two weeks back to consider they don't
have town halls i don't know i don't know
I mean, it is.
Because collectively they're good people, but as a body.
They're horrible.
They're horrible.
They're horrible.
I honestly, Steve, I can't tell you.
I am at a loss for DOJ and I'm at a loss for Congress.
And I'm at a loss on Donald Trump, man.
Why aren't you using the bully pulpit to go after your own here?
Eat them.
Eat them.
Tell them.
Oh, we're watching you.
watching you. The whole country is watching you. Get to work. Do these things now. Have you seen the
clock on the wall and the numbers spinning? We're burning daylight. Burning daylight. It was an interesting
conversation. I actually, as I'm watching this, I forgot we had had this conversation. And as I'm
watching this, I realize I have an answer now. I think in talking to more people that are in and around
the administration, people that know, the one thing that is.
and it goes back to Congress. Congress is holding back the nominees, the Republicans are,
holding back the nominees that people like Pam Bondi and Cash and everybody else need.
They have to go through Congress.
And some of our leadership on our side is like, you know, we passed all your people.
You got all of the people.
But don't expect to get everything through until maybe August or end of the year.
You can't go a year without those people.
so it's my new understanding i'm going to ask the president tonight but it's my new understanding
that that is the real problem is that congress is not clearing and putting the people in that
those people need around them to get the job done i hope that's not true but we'll see because i don't
understand it i really don't understand it um so you have what an hour with the president yeah i'm
i'm i'm going to take the uh you're going to finish the show and i'm going to go over to the
House. I just have put it, you know, I don't know, I'm still struggling on on how I'm going to frame everything.
I think I, you know, as I've been looking at all this this morning, I think I'm going to try to
frame it under Liberation Day because I think people need to understand how big this job is of what he's
trying to do. And I think, I mean, if my theory is right, that he named it Liberation Day because
he's changing everything, the whole world order since World War II, uh, that leads us into
you know, everything that he's, that he is doing and gives it a deeper understanding.
But I'm going to talk about the tariffs and the economy and Doge, jail for the bad guys,
the courts, foreign affairs.
I mean, we're going to cover it.
I'm going to cover as much as I can with the president.
And that'll be on Blaze TV tonight at 9 p.m. from the White House tonight, 9 p.m.
My interview with Donald Trump is Glenn Beck.
All right.
Let me talk about Ammo Squared here.
You've got a car insurance, even if you're a good driver.
You have health insurance, even when you're not sick.
Hopefully, you've got some ammo, even if you haven't needed it yet.
But here's the thing.
Ammo isn't just something that you buy once and forget.
It's a supply.
And like any supply, it can run low, usually at the worst possible time.
That's where Ammo Squared comes in.
Think of it like a savings account, but for ammunition.
You pick the calibers that you want, how much you want to spend each month,
and they handle the rest.
They store this for you in a secure facility.
Or you can have it shipped to your door whenever you're ready.
No more panic buying, no more empty shelves, no more I'll get around to it.
And, you know, it's kind of genius.
Just like food or water or power, if you wait until you need ammo to go buy it,
it's probably already too late and probably too expensive.
That's why you want to go with Ammosquare.com.
Ammosquare.com, take the work out of buying ammo.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
It is Stubergear.
here for you as Glenn goes, his little jaunt to the White House. For some reason, the president of the United
States did not plan his schedule around our program today. It is wrong. Jeff Fisher joins us as well,
of course, host of Chewing the Fat, the wonderful podcast hosted by Jeffie. We'll get to him in just
a couple of seconds. Almost sounds like you'd believe it. I didn't. I didn't believe it, but I'm glad I was
a little bit convincing. First let me tell you about the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. September 11th,
isn't just a day that we remember.
It's a day that's still, to this day, taking lives.
We lost 2,97 souls on that morning, men, women, children.
We lost heroes and first responders who ran toward the danger without a second thought.
But here's something that a lot of people don't know.
More first responders have died from 9-11-related illnesses since that day than died on it,
which is really terrifying.
The legacy of sacrifice deserves to be honored not just once a year, but regularly in every classroom
across America. That's exactly what the Tentelm Tower's Foundation is doing through the 9-11 Institute.
They're equipping K through 12 teachers with powerful age-appropriate resources, full curriculum
units, ready to teach scripted lessons, videos, and even first-hand survivor stories through the
Discovering Heroes book series. They've even built a traveling museum, the 9-11 mobile exhibit
where students walk through the day in the shoes of the firefighters who were there. It's guided
by the very men who lived it. To never forget, we must educate future generation.
help our nation keep its vow. Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to T-Towers at T2T.org. It's T-the-number-2T.org.
Jeffrey, welcome. Good to see him, my man.
Stu, good to see you. How are you?
Well, I'm doing well. I mean, this is a big day for our own Glenn Beck.
I mean, that's a big surprise. He's, you know, doesn't realize he's got his own show to do.
Yeah, I know. It is interesting. I just feel like, you know.
I would say, I am working on my own show, just not this one.
Yes, it's true. He's going to be, by the way, able to see this interview unedited tonight. They're going to put this on Glenn's TV show, Glenn TV. Of course, part of your Blaze TV subscription, blazestTV.com slash Glenn. The promo code there is Glenn. Of course, you also get Studeau's America, chew in the fat, a part of the podcast network, get all of it. And it's a great membership. And it also helps support actual journalism, actual conservative thought, you know, maybe some media.
coverage you could actually get something out of.
It'll be nice. I'll be interested
to see this interview tonight with
the president and Glenn. I know
it's a different thing doing an interview
on your show when
President Trump's on the phone.
Yeah. As opposed to going to the White
House and doing it there face to
face. There's a
on his ground. It's on his ground, right?
And it's interesting because the president
he's got about an hour with
the president, Glenn does.
And you know, the president isn't
one of those guys that sometimes you bring on a guest you know this jeffy you bring on a guest
and they they answer in like half sentences and they're kind of they're kind of boring and they're
quick and they don't say anything interesting and they get they're dumb after two sentences and they kind
of let you go on to the next question that's not president that is not don't trump no president
trump is going to give you he's going to go you're going to start him off he's going to go you're not
to make a point to get to get to yeah it's hard it is hard it's a challenge with him because
you know look the guy is he's a talk
He likes talking about these stuff.
He cares about it quite a bit.
And he'll just go.
Especially if you want to confront him on something, if you want to, if he says something,
you're like, well, let's back up and think about this for a second.
Yeah.
Now you've wasted another, not wasted, but I mean, there goes another 10 minutes.
Right.
Of the hour that you have.
You have to really be focused.
And I wouldn't, I don't know, Glenn, I think can be up and down on that one.
Sometimes he's very focused and gets to the stuff he wants to get to.
Other times.
Other times, maybe not so much.
So we'll see what happens tonight.
I'm very interested to watch this.
you know, Glenn obviously goes into this wanting to ask about all the important stuff that's going on,
but you can only get to certain things and we'll see what he gets to tonight on the program.
Again, the show airs at, was it 9 p.m. Eastern?
I can't remember.
I don't know.
It's on Blaze TV.
BlaisTV.com slash Glenn, the promo code being Glenn.
Make sure to check it out.
You'll save 20 bucks on the subscription if you go about it that way.
One thing I don't know that he'll have a chance to get to is the new proposal from the FDA,
to phase out dyes used in a bunch of foods.
This is the part of-
I'll be messing with my skittles, too.
Tell you what,
I don't care about all the other red dye, yellow dye,
sit there's dyes, don't mess with my skittles.
No?
No.
You don't want your skittles.
I will say I'm not shocked to see you defending big food.
And I'll be probably with you on this as well.
I mean, the red dye thing is something they've been trying to push for a while.
You know, there have been a lot of,
calls for this to be banned for a long time.
The Biden administration did do this as well.
They banned red dye number three.
One red dye.
One red dye number three.
Now, these are foods that, these are dyes that are in all sorts of foods, though
it's maybe a little overblown how many foods they're in.
A lot of it has been, you know, some companies have just decided they didn't want to put
these dyes in foods already.
But they say the fluorescent red of flaming hot Cheetos.
Are you a flaming hot Cheetos guy?
Not really.
Not me either.
I like the cheesy stuff.
I feel like the flaming hot stuff.
Yeah.
They just abandon the cheese.
You want to give me a spicy cheese flavored thing?
I'm in.
But what they're doing there is they're doing a lot of just the spice without the cheese.
And I just, you know.
So that could go away.
That one's fine.
No.
They are the, they do say, the brilliant teal of Mountain Dew Baja blast, which I do enjoy quite a bit.
And the colorful rain blow of Skittles may soon be dimmed.
See, this is not.
This is unacceptable.
The FDA is phasing out the use of these,
they call petroleum-based synthetic dyes by the end of next year.
This is what they announced.
Now, it's interesting to see how they're doing this.
Their approach is not as heavy-handed as I would say.
The left has engaged in over the years,
where they're just going out and actually banning it.
They seem to be indicating they're going to work with companies to do it.
To do it.
They have to come to the table and say,
look, we can't get rid of it.
because of this.
Right.
There'll be, I'm sure, a lobbying effort.
And look, the reason why these dyes are used is typically because they're less expensive
than the alternatives.
And also more vibrant.
Right.
That's the thing.
They want to brighten, especially like the citrus ones they talked about.
Right.
Well, I'll give you this example.
RFK Jr.
Look, I'll be honest.
I'm not an RFK Jr. guy.
Like, Marty McCari is another guy who's been out there talking about this.
I like him a lot.
Big J. Bottachari guy.
A lot of the people that Donald Trump has chosen for his health health apparatus, I really do like.
You know, RFK Jr., not so much, I will admit to you.
He was talking about how he had this big thing when he was running for president against Donald Trump
when he was talking about fruit loops and how Canadian fruit loops only have three ingredients,
and we have all these ingredients in our fruit loops.
Now, needless to say, that's not even remotely close to accurate.
I mean, it's hard.
I would love to know which three ingredients you could form a fruit loop with because I don't know,
there's just not a physical way to do it.
You can't make fruit loops with three ingredients.
It's not even remotely close to true.
The only way to make fruit loops in three ingredients is if you actually use real fruit, right?
Okay.
If you use just...
And that's what Canada does.
No, that is not what they do.
They do not have three ingredients.
They have basically, I think, the exact same amount.
It might be one or two less ingredients, a fewer ingredients, but basically the,
exact same amount of ingredients. But what they do that is different than us is they utilize different
dyes for their fruit loops. So if you look at the fruit loops, side by side, Canadian fruit loops,
U.S. fruit loops, I'm sorry, there's no doubt which one you're taking. You're taking the good old
American fruit loops. Right. They look better. They look, they pop, right? They've got those cool colors,
the bright blues and the bright reds and the bright reds and the bright reds and the bright.
yellows and then you have that kind of like boring like yeah it's dull cereal look and and of course
we should point out cereals without these flavorings fruit loop type cereals are currently widely available
in the united states if you choose to want your dull cereals are available they're available
for forever they're available for a very long time there's a you know again it's usual
I will say a little bit more expensive
because
the reason why they use the artificial dyes
first of all they look better
and they're more enticing to people
and secondarily they are cheaper
right they they they
if you go to Trader Joe's
you can find tons of cereals that are not flavored
with artificial flavorings but they're going to cost
a lot more they're much more expensive
when you take all these ingredients out
so that's why a lot of these big cereal
companies utilize these dyes
They're cheaper, and of course, they also look better.
But you can get the other ones if you want them now.
To me, as a person who wants less government interference, rather than more,
I typically lean on the side of wanting the options to all be out there.
You should be able to choose what you want.
Now, I know what I will choose every single time,
which is the good old American petroleum-based food coloring.
That's what I want.
Absolutely.
But I open up my bag of Skittles.
If I don't have those vibrant colors staring back at me shining, ready to be eaten, I don't.
Right.
I don't know.
I don't know why either because it doesn't really change the taste of them at all.
They all taste.
Everyone is different to.
Yeah.
Fruit loops.
By the way, did you know this?
I'm sure you did, Jeffrey, but did you know that every fruit loop, no matter what the color
tastes the same?
It's exactly the same.
It tastes the same, which is interesting.
That's why on top of whatever they put in the dyes for fruit loops, you need a
a little bit more extra sugar on top of it.
Right.
Just just brighten it up a little bit.
You need to brighten it up a little bit.
That's not, again, healthy choice is not exactly your strong suit.
So this is what they're going into now.
They say there's been an interesting, the studies on this, I will say, are not, not
overwhelming.
If you go back and live.
There's been very few, actually.
There's been very few.
And what they've shown has been really mixed.
I mean, there was a study a long time ago and that, and this is the basis.
Again, this was the Biden administration getting rid of red number three.
Now, they tried to get rid of red number three.
They eventually did it.
They did it right before Trump came into office.
And the study said that certain rats can get cancer with certain amounts of red number three.
The levels taken in yes.
Yes.
Now, the levels, I mean, it's completely absurd.
First of all, they gave 65 times the maximum.
dose to these rats.
And they gave them 65 times the maximum dose every day for 28 consecutive months.
Wow.
Now, I don't know if there's any substance you could take at that level that would not cause
cancer, but maybe there's one.
I don't know what it would be.
You probably, even with that, if you had 65 the amount of times of the amount of maximum,
the maximum dose of water every day for 28 months, you'd probably be dead.
Yeah.
So I don't know why that is an.
important study, but that is what they did on. By the way, the study, the author of the study,
which they use to take red number three off the market, says it's actually safe. So they took
his study where he said it's safe and then use that to pull it off the market. Now, one of the
things they've studied over the years, Jeffie, is this concept of it causing ADHD. Yeah, yeah.
That was one of the California studies, right? That's probably, there's more basis to that one,
because they have found in about half the studies that they've looked at,
they've seen some effect on some children when it comes to a measure of ADHD.
And it's funny, I have a friend who is, you know, he's like our lovely Hillary who does the
four bit of buzz here.
She was just busting on me because she's, you know, she likes the more natural approach.
She's certainly more healthy than I am.
So we all know that.
But, you know, I have a friend who's kind of like Hillary in that, you know, he's, you know,
he's very like natural and likes to talk to me about however a chemical and our food is bad.
And we go back and forth about this.
And, you know, it was funny because this week he's telling me we have to pull off all these food colorings because of ADHD.
Last week he was telling me ADHD didn't exist.
And I'm like, wait a minute.
You were the one who was telling me last week that ADHD was just a scam.
And then this week you're telling me we have to pull red number of whatever 40 off the shelves because it causes ADHD.
So I'm a bit.
confused as to what we're doing here exactly. But I mean, I think most people are like, look,
if I could do without, you know, some petroleum-based food coloring, sure, I'll choose it.
It might not everyone might be us, Jeffie. Some people might want that.
Fine, whatever. You be you. By the way, I will say it is available for you. It's available right now.
Thank you. Now, one of the things you might notice if these things go away is that prices do go
up on these items, right?
Like, because the, the alternatives are more expensive.
Well, that's what we've been told forever.
Yeah.
And we'll say, maybe at a certain scale.
No, no, uh, investigations on how to do the product cheaper without it,
knowing it was coming.
I mean, I hope so.
You'd think that they would.
And there are alternatives, right?
Beat juice is one of them.
You know, beat juices.
Don't be messed with my skittles, man.
You start putting beet juices, my skittles, too.
Look, maybe people want beet juice.
That's good.
They can have it, but not with...
And their skittles.
And by the way, even things like skittles, there are, quote, unquote, natural alternatives.
Like you pull them off of a tree.
Natural alternatives for your skittles.
Those do exist.
I remember picking the...
If they get overrived, you got to eat them off the ground.
You do.
You do.
All right.
Well, we'll come back.
We'll talk about the alternatives here in just a second.
What's going to be happening?
First, let me tell you about Lear Capital.
Some things in life are temporary.
Trends, headlines, the ups and downs of the market.
But wisdom,
Real wisdom stands the test of time.
The stability is kind of what Lear Capital is all about, because in a world that feels more volatile
by the day, gold and silver don't play by the same rules.
They're not just investments, they're anchors that hold the market when, you know, there's
sways and there's currencies going crazy and governments are spending like there's no tomorrow.
Gold is there.
It's been there for a long time.
Lear Capital helps you put something real in place, something your family can count on.
For 25 years, they've helped people like you prepare for on.
certain times, not with panic, but with purpose, because you just don't build a legacy by earning.
You build it by protecting what matters.
So give Lear Capital a call today, $800957 gold, $800957 gold.
Get your free $4,200 gold report, which seemed like a crazy number, not that long ago.
$4,200 for an ounce of gold.
Yeah, it's at like $3,500 now.
So if we're getting there, when you call $800,957 gold, ask about getting up to $15,000 in free gold or silver with a qualifying purchase.
800-9-57 gold is the number to call
800-9-57 gold
for Lear Capital

Okay, we're talking about the
synthetic food dyes
They want to phase out of
Foods in the United States
They're working on that now
What you can substitute these for
Beat juice is one of them for reds
They have like certain blueberry juices
That they use
That's fine
If you want that
They're not, now they are not as vibrant
Not as bright
but they could be a useful substitute.
That's not the main one they use, though.
It's not normally beat juice.
It's usually carmine.
Now, Carmine also is known as natural number four.
So instead of red 40, you're getting natural number four, which sounds wonderful.
It sure does.
Okay.
How do you make natural number four?
I don't know, Stu.
How do you make natural number?
Interesting people are interested in this because it sounds delicious.
First of all, you go to the prickly pear cactus.
Okay.
Okay.
That kind of sounds interesting.
I've,
I've not seen a prickly pear cactus field, but I'm sure they exist.
Yeah, they do exist.
They come, now again, you're not going to be, this is not going to be an American product.
This is going to be Central and South America.
Okay.
I get these from.
But you go through the prickly pear plant and you don't go into the pickly, prickly pear plant.
Right.
You don't go in there.
You go to the outside of it and you scrape off the cochineal insects.
that are on the outside.
Okay.
Okay.
You scrape a bunch of those off.
Okay.
When they become mature, you are going to harvest...
The plants or the bugs?
The bugs.
You're only going to harvest, however, we should be clear, only the females of this
particular species of insect.
You're going to take off of the prickly pear plants.
I know.
I don't know what kind of magnifying glass you need to figure out which one's which, but you
figure it out.
Sadly, I do.
Anyway, it's a joke there somewhere.
So when these insects are mature, you brush them off the cacti.
and they mostly are collected by hand,
a very labor-intensive process.
Then the insects are killed and dried
using sunlight, ovens, or steam.
It takes about 70,000 of these bugs
to make a pound of dye
that will go into your skittles very soon.
That's got to be cheap.
Now, once you dry the bugs out,
you then grind the bugs into a fine powder.
And you take that powder
and you boil it in water
and you extract the vibrant carminic acid.
Now, this mixture is now filtered
and this is, people are like,
oh, what are going to be eating insects parts?
No.
It's filtered to remove the insect solids.
You'll just be having the insect powder.
It's the goo.
It leaves the liquid red extract.
And then it is treated with some mineral salts
to stabilize the pigment.
It is then concentrated, dried into a fine powder, and then kept as a liquid concentrate,
and then it shipped to be added to your skittles.
Right there.
So you can go with that.
There's going to be at least one bag of skittles in America.
That's a lot of work.
That is amazing.
One pound of dye, 70,000 bugs.
Now, I've been told that people are resistant to the movement to eat bugs.
Yeah.
That is what I've been told over the past few months.
I thought we had this whole, you know,
World Economic Form, Klaus Schwab, don't eat the bugs thing.
We will be eating more bugs if we go down this road.
I don't think there's any question about that.
I don't know that people want that exactly.
I think they'd rather have beet juice.
But it's not going to be that many.
You can't make the amount of product that we make doing that.
I just can't.
I think the bugs are plentiful, Jeffie.
This is why eating bugs is so wonderful.
You can go and get, you can create these things like crazy.
So once we get the supply chain,
up and running of these cactus bugs.
We're good to go then.
I guess we're good to go at that point.
Once we have,
and we are already using this in a bunch of foods.
This isn't like a brand new thing.
This is the,
you know,
one of the main alternatives to red number 40.
All right.
So eat the bugs.
Eat the bugs in your skittles.
I don't know.
I'm not too enthused,
frankly about that switch off.
But, you know,
again,
people should be able to have the choices
and eat all the bugs that they desire.
Triple-8-727 Beck is the number.
This is Glenn Beck.
Now, maybe you want to try to stay away from eating bugs.
Maybe you're thinking maybe you would eat something a little more traditionally American.
Maybe you're seeing the meat at the grocery store that you're buying and you're like, I don't think I want that.
And prices are kind of going way up and the labels are confusing.
And half the time you're not even sure if the chicken you're buying is from America for just kind of maybe vacation.
here once, I don't know. If it's, if you're kind of going through that, you might want good ranchers.
They source 100% of American meat. This is no mystery labels, no imported junk pretending to be
local. We're talking better beef, better chicken, better everything. It's all from American farms and
ranches. And it shows up right at your door. You don't have to do anything weird like barter with a
butcher or learn what mechanically separated means or, you know, you don't have to deal with any of the
crazy stuff they're trying to pull on you these days. You just pick up a box, they ship it frozen, and
packed, you know, like it's from Fort Knox.
And then you got a freezer full of high-quality meat.
That didn't cost you or your sanity or your savings.
If you're tired of playing grocery store roulette, go to good ranchers.com.
You'll save time, money, and probably a little bit of your sanity.

All sorts of different things he's going to go into.
Is it going to be from the Oval or is there they're shuffling them off on the side room?
That's good question.
I don't know where they're going to do it.
I know there's a lot of talk beforehand because there are some incredible shots you can get when it comes to just an amazing look of an interview inside that building, obviously.
And I know, you know, Glenn.
Glenn loves his sets.
Glenn loves his, he loves his cinematography.
He's very focused on the look of the interview.
I'm surprised I could even slide to your left just a little bit.
I need that.
I'd say, you know, Glenn, like, you know, if you're concerned about the look of the interview, perhaps a few pushups.
You know what I mean?
I'm just saying, here, have this nice plate of bugs that look like red dye.
It should take some of that.
It's natural.
I want to, he mentioned some of the craziness going on in the city.
You know, homelessness is a massive problem there now and a lot of mental illness on the streets.
As Glenn mentioned, a lot of mental illness inside of the Capitol as well.
And a lot of corruption there, too.
If you remember the story of Bob Menendez, he was the Democratic senator from New Jersey and was there forever.
It was accused of, you know, credibly over many, many crimes for a long time.
And Democrats just kept putting him in office and put him in office and put him in office.
Eventually got to the place where it was completely ridiculous for him to stay.
He was accused of accepting bribes, including gold bars famously.
Oh, yes.
cash, a luxury car, in exchange for political favors.
They had found over $480,000 in cash hidden in clothing and in closets.
That's awesome.
Plus, I love this, 13 gold bars in his home.
How many gold bars do you have in your home right now, Jeffrey, would you say?
Right now.
If you could estimate it.
You don't have to give me an exact number, obviously.
It's just estimate the number of gold bar.
Probably close to zero.
Really?
But I don't want to go out on a limb and say there might be, you know, less than zero.
Less than zero.
You may owe a gold bar to a couple of people.
These are business interests, you know, people had interest in,
from Egypt and across the world.
Oh, yeah.
In return, he helped secure some arms deals.
He allegedly was trying to influence U.S. foreign policy.
He was indicted in September 2023 for the bribery and the fraud
and the acting as a foreign agent.
He was hit with additional charges in early 2024.
They had actually traced the gold bar serial number.
numbers to previous robberies.
Now, they don't think he actually robbed any banks.
No, no, no.
But seemingly one of the businessmen who was alleged of trying to bribe him was involved in the robbery.
To be fair, he was still a senator now.
And he still was going on as normal.
He didn't leave the Senate until I think after he was convicted.
Yeah, because he kept, eventually turned against him the vibes.
You know, people like Federman.
were on it right away saying like this guy's got to resign.
But most of the Democrats kind of just shut their mouth on it.
Eventually got to the point where it was so ridiculous they had to get him out of there.
And he threatened to maybe run as an independent and didn't really go down that road.
So now he was on trial and he was convicted.
But his wife was also involved in this, right, Jeffrey?
Correct.
And they split up the trial because the wife had breast cancer.
And that originally his defense was, oh yeah, my wife has breast cancer.
She did it all.
It was.
He really did push it off on her initially, right?
Now, again, he's going to prison.
He's going to prison in June.
He asked the judge, after he was found guilty,
to postpone him going to prison
because he wanted to help in his wife's trial,
which was nice of him.
Very nice.
So he wanted to be supportive husband.
I need to help her through her trial.
He didn't come to trial once.
Her trial went on for,
several weeks.
Not once to show up. Now maybe he was
helping her out on the side at home. I don't know.
Wait a minute. So he got the
prison time delayed to help her
in the trial, but that didn't go to the trial?
Never showed up once. Not one time. Not even like the first
day you show up with your arm around. I'm just super
supportive of my wife. He just didn't come at all. That's correct.
Now she has been found guilty of
bribery, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice
charges. And she's going to be sentenced about the same time as he goes to prison. And she's
probably going to get about the same amount of time that he gets. So she was really involved in
this? That wasn't just him. How do you know that? There were times. There was one, there was one
insurance broker that was having a criminal probe against them. And he gave her a car to make sure
that Bob Goldbar Menendez takes care of the criminal probe. Oh, yeah. Because there's records of he
testified and said that he
he gave her a down payment on the car she called hubby and said hey look at my new car
and then she was in another meeting i think with the egyptians although i'm not sure when
this meeting was at a dinner party and she was just like what else can the love of my life do
for you today i mean so she was definitely pushing bob and she was pushing her absolutely
now i did not know this one one quick thing about when they found all the cash stuff
in the house.
Yes.
It said that including inside the former senator's official government windbreaker.
I didn't know they had official government windbreakers.
Is that part of the perks package you get?
I guess so.
You get a government wind breaker?
Don't keep cash in it at the house, though.
I have heard some of these congressmen break wind often.
So I don't know if that has anything to do, especially was the guy with a super high pants.
Oh, yeah, from New York.
Yeah, from New York.
What's that I get that it was name.
He's the guy that they say is the worst smelling.
The worst offender.
Yeah.
Congressman? I can see him.
Yes, I can see him too because his...
Pulls his pants way up.
They're jacked up to his nipples.
Yes.
What is it again?
No, not Barney Frank.
No.
He's a former congressman.
Why can I think of a guy?
This guy's still a congressman.
We'll get the name here in a second.
You know who he is.
Absolutely know who he is.
I can't think of a stupid name.
But this is a fascinating because she, it wasn't like she got a Toyota Corolla either.
It was a Mercedes.
No, Mercedes-Benz.
Yeah.
So she got that.
Anyway, it's just fascinating.
She's guilty now.
And she gets sentenced about the time that he goes to prison.
Both of them.
are done. And it was fascinating
to me, especially since
he tried to throw her under the bus.
And then he gets found
guilty. And then he talks the judge into
postponing him showing
up for prison because he's going to help her
with her trial. And he doesn't show up.
He's a good guy. Good guy.
By the way, Jerry Nadler. Yes, he's the name we were
thinking of. People were screaming
at the radio. I apologize. Jerry Nadler.
It is interesting.
He was accused as being the
smelliest member of Congress.
Yeah. There were a number of reports that Jerry was, I forget the term of him, like, think of a firecracker going off down the aisle in Congress.
Okay.
He would just come along as a carpet bomb.
Yeah, he had a little bit of a flatulence issue, was the accusation.
I will say it would be an interesting change in our society.
And I don't know how America would change, but I think it would change dramatically if we had like smello vision on.
TV where when we watched, you know, C-SPAN, you could smell what these people smelled like.
I think there'd be a big change in this country.
I think a lot of the people who are currently in Congress would be defeated.
I don't disagree with you, except you know, that's not what we're going to be using it for.
Yeah.
On television.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Probably.
Probably.
None of it's good.
None of it.
Nothing.
Nothing is positive.
By the way, they're not the only relationship that's having some problems.
I mentioned this a little bit earlier.
Our friend Kilmar,
Abrego Garcia.
Is that the Maryland father of the year?
Yes.
I don't know if he was father of the year.
Okay.
Although I will assume that the Democrats
will be giving him that award any day now.
But he, of course, was a suspected MS-13 gang member.
He was here in the country illegally.
He waited five.
Some of the reports I'm saying,
five years, some or seven, to actually say, well, he needed asylum.
And he needed asylum, Jeffrey, because his mother's Pupusa stand had been harassed by a gang.
What are you going to do?
This is why he couldn't go back home.
What are you going to do?
You can't go back home.
Now, the issue with that claim, there's a couple issues with that claim.
I'll be honest with, there's a couple of them.
Number one, the Pupusa stand closed a long time ago, no longer exists.
So it would be odd that he couldn't go back to El Salvador because he's a lot of, because he's
His Papuso stand was being attached.
Which, by the way, he left his mom there.
So the gang's coming after his mom.
And he left.
He leaves, leaves his mom in the Papusas stand there.
He doesn't care about them.
Because they can't pay the protection money or something.
That's close.
Also, the actual gang in El Salvador also doesn't really exist anymore because Buckele came in
and got rid of all the gangs.
Right.
So the gangs aren't there.
The Papusas aren't there.
but he has to stay here.
That's what we're supposed to believe.
Well, yeah.
He, for his asylum, and I know it's not asylum for his.
Yeah, it was a different type of asylum claim, but it was a, it was some sort of preventing a,
a, a departure, essentially.
Like, there's some strange term, and I can't remember that.
But he admitted, right.
That was one of the reasons that he couldn't go back.
Right.
That's what he said.
Delaying.
Yeah.
Yeah. So they, they, when they, he was going to claim asylum and they said, well, you have to do that within the first year that you're here. So they give us a nice window of a year. You can come here, set up your life, you know, go through a whole Little League season. I mean, you can do a lot of stuff. And then by one year, you have to say, by the way, the only reason I'm here is because of my mom's Papusa stand, which by the way, I mentioned this already, I think earlier in the week. But it was around this time of day. We were talking about the Papusa stand a few, like last week. And I
immediately had to order papuces on Uber Eats.
I immediately went on and ordered papuces to be delivered immediately after the show.
And they were tremendous.
Really?
I had never had them before.
I don't know how to describe.
They're kind of like corn sort of like they're not like tortillas.
They're like thicker.
And they're kind of on both sides, almost like a sandwich.
And in the middle I got like cheese and jalapenos.
Oh my, it was incredible, Jeff.
Like I was available to view you eating this on your YouTube channel.
No, I didn't want to eat in front of people on the YouTube.
but I did want to give the full food review.
If you're, let's put it this way.
If you're in a gang currently and you're looking to harass a particular type of business,
papuses might be a good target because you might get free papuses and they're delicious.
And they're like $4, Jeffie.
Oh, that's not bad.
This is an incredible value.
That's not bad.
I don't know how we're just discovering this.
Most of the country maybe has discovered it, but I just did.
So I'm all in on papuses.
So he, you know, is saying he wants to stay here.
we're like, okay, you need to, this is crazy.
Like you're, you're, right.
It's time for, for you to leave.
We want to get, uh, we send him out of there.
And as all this is going back and forth, the Democrats kind of adopt him as a mascot, right?
This, this MS 13, uh, alleged member, a guy who has all these things going on there,
are highly questionable his life, certainly seem to have lied to the American government to stay here.
But he's got a wife and kids.
He becomes Maryland father, not an MS-13 member, Maryland.
father every time you hear Maryland father, Maryland, Maryland man, a Maryland father. This is the
nicest guy in the world, apparently. And the left adopts him as this sort of like cause-seleb
mascot. In the middle of all this, an accusation comes out that apparently his wife, because
he's just a father and a husband, apparently had filed for a restraining order against him based on
domestic violence. Now, normally, that doesn't mean. It means you lose your mascot status, but not with the
left. They're going to keep adopting. She took it away anyway. Yeah. It never was. It never did go
fully to effect. And now her reasoning is this. In 2021, she filed a protective order against her
husband alleging domestic violence. In a statement last week, however, she said she did so, quote,
in case things escalated, end quote, adding that they never did. So there you go. There you go.
You're good. Now, I don't know how many times, Jeffie, I know you've been on the wrong side of many
restraining orders over the years. I don't know how many of them were preemptive.
But apparently that's a thing.
It is a thing.
It is a thing.
So there we go.
A lot of people are happy about it.
I'll tell you that.
Yeah, she also said, well, he's alive and that's good.
I'm sure that is good.
It is good.
All right, AAA 727BECK is the phone number.
There comes a moment in every adult's life when you realize pain is no longer an occasional visitor.
It's just kind of part of the team.
And you wake up maybe sore from everything, from sleeping.
You pull something in your neck just trying to look.
look at a cloud. It gets kind of pathetic. You walk into your kitchen. Your knee clicks twice.
Jeffie, how many times is your knee click when you take a walk into the kitchen? Every day.
Every day. Every day over and over and over again. If this kind of sounds familiar,
relief factor is something you need to know about. It's not a drug. It's a daily supplement.
It's developed by doctors and it targets pain caused by inflammation. The kind that shows up uninvited
and overstays it's welcome. Inflammation is responsible for most of the pain that we feel in our
daily lives. And a lot of that is, you know, is a result of just long-term issues. And you can knock that
out with Relief Factor. Look, if your idea of an extreme sport is putting on socks without sitting down,
which I will say, it's getting harder and harder these days. It's harder and harder. It might be

Okay.
Yeah, I've got other shows to watch.
I talked to the director on my show Studios America last week.
I kind of liked it.
They didn't try to make some big point.
They didn't try to tie it to Donald Trump or something like you might expect in some of these, you know, documentaries.
It was just kind of taking you there and showing you and interviewing the people who were there.
So that's worth checking out as well.
Studios America tonight, don't miss that.
And Glenn TV with President Trump.
This is Glenn Beck.
