The Glenn Beck Program - The Left Wants You to Believe Trump Called for Liz Cheney’s Execution (He Didn't!) | Guest: Danny Gokey | 11/1/24

Episode Date: November 1, 2024

This election would be a blowout if this were any other election in Glenn’s lifetime. But it’s incredibly close still. Are pollsters lying about how close this election is? Stu breaks down why mos...t election polls are extremely close. Glenn lays out, in the Left’s own words, what will happen if the election is within the margin of error. Will the Left resort to drastic measures if Trump wins the election? Artist Danny Gokey joins to share his new song, "My America." The Left and state-run media have found their latest Trump quote to take out of context and lie about. Glenn and Stu break down the context behind Trump’s quote regarding Liz Cheney and claim the Left has made similar statements. If you’re afraid to tell your spouse who you’re voting for, you may be in an abusive marriage. Glenn and Stu discuss the latest hit piece from the New York Times, with the help of Media Matters, which attempts to force YouTube to silence conservative commentators. Kristi Kendall, director and producer of "Undivide Us," joins to discuss how both sides can unify during these hostile times.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We're going to talk about the polls, the race, the New York Times, what they're saying, trying to get YouTube to come on their side and just squash
Starting point is 00:02:26 anyone with a political difference. We'll talk about that and so much more. Roseanne Barr is going to be joining us today. We're going to show you what the left, not the Democrats. Well, yeah, they're the left now. So, yeah, the Democrats. What they are planning in case of a very close race or if Donald Trump wins will give you all of that information. So you're prepared. and you don't freak out next week in case that happens. And some really good news in 60 seconds first. There is really something amazing about watching your dog getting healthier and happier. I've seen it with Uno, and we really thought he was healthy.
Starting point is 00:03:03 We just wanted him to eat, but we really thought he was healthy. And then we started giving him rough greens, which is something that you sprinkle on your dog's food. We feed Uno Kibble. And we tried everything to get him to eat, and he just wouldn't eat. So we brought Rough Greens to our vet and said, is this good for the dog? And she said, if you can get your dog to eat this, this is great, absolutely. Well, we saw not only would he eat, he started to play more and be frisgier. I mean, not in a, you know, leg sort of way.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Anyway, he was just. Don't think we needed to point that out. Well, it might be too much information. But you know what I'm saying. We don't want to encourage that. But he was just playing all. the time. He was like a puppy again. I want you to try Rough Greens. He'll give you a free trial bag just to see if your dog will eat it and like it as much as Uno did. It's Rough Greens. RUFFF
Starting point is 00:03:58 Greens.com slash Beck. You just pay for shipping at Roughgreens.com slash Beck. Call 833 Glenn 33. That's 833, GLENN 33. Rough Greens.com slash Beck. Okay. So nobody knows how this election is going to turn out. We're going to talk about the polls here in just a second. And Nate Silver pointed something out that I think is really, really worth pointing out. And it could go either way, but there is something up with the polls that I think we need to talk about. But first, you know, Ronald Reagan is the guy who made the, do you think the country is headed in the right direction or is it on the wrong track?
Starting point is 00:04:34 He's the guy who really made that poll popular. And ever since then, that's been an important bellwether. and according to believe it or not, CNN, they're the ones that tracked this poll and brought this to my attention. 28% of Americans currently believe the country is on the right track. 28%. That doesn't seem real good, right? Well, it's not.
Starting point is 00:05:06 So do you think the country is headed in the right direction or is on the right track? Looking at the past 11 elections, going back to 9. 1980, every time the incumbent party has lost the White House, the average number of Americans who believe the country is headed in the right direction is 25%. Over those 11 elections, the lowest number was 11% in 2008. That was right before the big crash. It was happening at the very end. Everybody was freaking out.
Starting point is 00:05:43 that was the worst in 2008, it was 11% saying that we were on the right track. The highest number came in 2000 when 39% of the country said that we were headed in the right direction. That saw George W. Bush win, but only after a very close election and a recount drama in Florida. When the incumbent party does get reelected, the right direction average, is at least 42%. So let's go back to the right direction number. It's at 28%. Gallup poll version of this question is 26%.
Starting point is 00:06:26 The 2020 election had all kinds of weird things going on, you know, so it's an outlier, but an outlier. But the Gallup poll at this same point in 2020, found the right direction number at 28. if between 26 and 28 is the accurate number right now, that's the historic average of 25% that sees every time the incumbent party rejected. Now, the historical anomaly this time is that Kamala Harris is running
Starting point is 00:07:04 instead of the actual incumbent Joe Biden. But that's the same thing that happened with Bill Clinton and Al Gore. history is split on this situation. An incumbent president who could run but chose not to. That's only happened seven times in our history prior to the current situation. Four of those times were Democrats. Three of those times were Republicans. The Democrats that could have run but chose not to, James Polk, James Buchanan,
Starting point is 00:07:37 Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson. All four times the Democrats, their successor, lost. The Republicans were Rutherd B. Hayes, Theodore Roosevelt, and Calvin Coolidge. All three times their chosen successor won. So what you can take from this historically is that whenever Democrats try to replace their incumbent with someone else, they lose.
Starting point is 00:08:06 combine that with the fact that the low right direction number of 26 to 28 percent and you get absolutely nothing concrete to provide any confidence heading into Tuesday. That's how I've landed on that place so many times. Yeah, it's nothing. It's really nothing. However, it does provide a glimmer of hope, which is better than no hope. You know, and this thing could be so close, but at the same, same time, it could be a blowout.
Starting point is 00:08:40 Oh, so we know ever. We know nothing. We know nothing. It could either be close or a blowout. I believe everything tells us this is going to be a blowout if this weren't 2024. If this was any other election in my lifetime, this would be a blowout. But because we have that one factor out there of possible. cheating? I don't know. Now, Nate Silver, and I wanted to talk to you about this, Stu,
Starting point is 00:09:12 because you are our poll guy. You love stats. You love polls. You know who the good pollsters are, the bad pollsters. You know their history, et cetera, et cetera. So here's what Nate Silver came out on his podcast yesterday. He said he went into this tirade of pollsters. They're lying about the results. Okay. Wait, what? He said, remember he's the he's the guy who runs the analytics at 538. He was that. He started that site. It's now owned by ABC Disney.
Starting point is 00:09:45 He sold it to them. But he is now doing his own thing. It's called the Silver Bulletin. Okay. So he says 55 chance, 55% chance Donald Trump wins, 45% chance for Kamala Harris. But he says, and I want to quote this, many surveys, including Emerson College, which is good, isn't it? Yeah. I mean, I was on Megan Kelly's show yesterday, and the head of Emerson was on as well.
Starting point is 00:10:11 And he was, you know, I mean, he's a really interesting guy. They've known as, at least as far as I've known, has been a pretty good pollster. Okay. He says, Nate Silver says, surveys, many surveys, including Emerson College, are doing something called herding or using existent poll numbers to impact new polls to keep producing close polls with one candidate or other up by one point. in fact he said quote i kind of trust pollsters less they are every time a poll after all they are they every time they say a pollster says oh every state is just plus one every single state is a tie no you're hurting you're cheating you're cheating what does what is hurting so hurting is like let's just say let's say you and i are doing a poll of the united
Starting point is 00:11:02 States for president. And we're about to release it. It's a big moment for us. And we get the poll results. We go through all of our process as normal. And it comes out like Kamala Harris plus eight. And we're like, what, if we release this, we're going to get mocked. The whole, everyone, every conservative is going to say we're, you know, in bed, in bed with, with Kamala Harris. And we're probably going to be wrong. It's probably not going to be Kamala Harris plus eight. So we're going to look terrible. What if we kind of go back in, you know, the back end of our model here and wait different groups a little bit differently so we can get something that sounds a little bit more rational, right? And so you release a poll that says, oh, Kamala Harris up by one.
Starting point is 00:11:46 And so you're kind of like, you're trying to be respectable. You don't want to be the standout. You don't want to be the outlier. Now, so you, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Now I can understand that if it were us and we don't do polls, but you can. could you, I know in a meeting, we would all go, we're going to get killed. Yeah, our audience is going to kill us. Our audience is going to kill us for this. But we would still release it if we wanted to be credible. The numbers are the numbers.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Right, right. That's what that's what polling nerds want pollsters to do. Right. And that's the way pollsters should be. The numbers are the numbers. Right. And sometimes, look, you release one of the things in margin of error. Everyone talks about margin of error. Oh, the margin of error is three points. And that's true. It's three points, by the way, on both candidates. So if you are, if you're showing a tie, it could be anywhere from, you know, one candidate up by six to the other candidate up by six, right? This is giving you a range. And that's what I think a lot of people get upset about, right? It's not giving you specifics.
Starting point is 00:12:45 Polls give you generalities. They don't give you specifics. So, but like, just to finish that point, when you have a situation where the margin of error, you know, goes a few points, that could give you a result that feels like an outlier, but is still within the margin of error. built into the margin of error is also something that people don't discuss all that often, which it falls within that margin of error about 95% of the time. What that means is one out of 20 polls, supposedly, should be outside of the margin of error of the real number. One out of 20. It is built into the number.
Starting point is 00:13:17 So you should have outlier polls. We should be seeing them. There was a poll that CNN released the other day. Wait, wait, wait. Is this why when you talk to the candidates, they'll say, our internal polling shows that we're up eight points. And he's are like, wait, nobody's poll is saying that. The candidates themselves, you can't always trust.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Like, they've got all sorts of motivations, right? They are going to only... No, I know that. But when you talk to somebody in the campaign that is credible on the polls, they'll say, don't believe the polls. Don't believe the polls. One way or another. And I've heard it both ways.
Starting point is 00:13:53 I've heard people say, yeah, our internal polling is really not good. Yeah, this is a little bit off of what he's talking about. But like when you're talking about internal polls, the reason why you can't always trust them. Number one, obviously, these campaigns just lie to us all the time about everything. Yeah, yeah, I know. But if you're talking to someone you know, right, that's in a campaign and they say that. A lot of times, they may very well have good results. They also will drill down into different categories.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Like, we're seeing more enthusiasm out of this group, and that's why we're confident, right? They're looking at things a little bit deeper than that top line. When you're talking about campaign polls released publicly, it's not. Not typically them just lying. I mean, they might just also lie. But one of the things they do is they hold back the results they don't want you to see. They don't have to release every one of their polls. So they release the ones that look good for them or they convey the message that they want to convey and hold back the others.
Starting point is 00:14:43 See, here's the problem. When you look at the polls that are all tied with one person, and this is what he's talking about. He says, if a pollster never publishes numbers that surprise you, then the poll is worthless. Yeah. This is not, he's like all of these polls are worthless. because they're not showing you the range of where it is. This is a game of incentives, though, right? A polling nerd, right, looks at this and says, I want the process to be pure, right?
Starting point is 00:15:10 That's what I want. I want a pollster who's sticking by their process and they agree on something. They go through the process. They give the result. Whatever the chips may fall, they release those poll numbers. That's what a polling nerd wants. What the American people want is someone who's going to. to give them generally speaking an accurate result.
Starting point is 00:15:30 And, you know, we just talked about this the other day. There was a poll, it was like, there were like eight years ago. Hillary Clinton had a poll come out where she was up 12 points. Right. Eight years later, we're talking about that result. No one remembers the poll that came out that Hillary Clinton was up two points. It's just kind of in the mush, right? So you're not getting called out for being wrong.
Starting point is 00:15:50 You're not the horrible outlier that blew the election and everyone's talking about a decade later. So there's incentives for these polling. companies to be like, look, the American people are going to, you know, hate our guts and we're going to, unless we happen to be right, let's just kind of make the, we'll change your numbers a little bit. Let's get back into the pack a little bit. I understand the motivation. It's not the right thing to do from a polling perspective, however. Like, that's not what you're, that's not the, that's the, otherwise you're just, I mean, you got to go. I mean, I did research for music radio forever. Yeah. And, you know, if you would, something would poll and it would be way out of line, you would still use it. You would. until you did another poll and saw it brought back into line. Unless it was like, you know, just some crazy swing of 20 points. And you're like, I've never seen it test that way. Yeah. Maybe test it again.
Starting point is 00:16:41 You know what I mean? Right. And if some terrible song was like, you should play this every eight minutes, you'd be skeptical of that result. But you'd also kind of open your mind and say, okay, well, we went through the process correctly. Let's, let's go down the road a little bit. Can't tell you how many times I would go. So I'd see something and I'd say, let me see the numbers.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Let me see the actual. Who are we talking to? Yeah. You know, did we screw up our methodology at all? And if that was accurate, then you go with the number. Yeah. And it's like, you know, polling people, like there was a Ann Selzer, who's a pollster in Iowa, kind of famous for her Iowa polls, released.
Starting point is 00:17:14 I can't remember which election cycle it was. It was maybe one or two ago. And she released a poll that was really way out of what everyone else had. I think it was Trump up by a bunch. I think that's what it was. And when everyone was showing it was basically a toss-up. state. And of course, Trump wound up winning Iowa relatively easily. And she was praised for that because she was the outlier and was correct when everyone else seemed to be hurting around a very close
Starting point is 00:17:36 election. So, you know, it's interesting he's saying this so overtly. I don't know that he has evidence of it. I mean, this seems to be just his opinion. Except he's pointing out Emerson. Right. We should see if we can get him on. Yeah. I mean, the Emerson, yeah, he's good at explaining the polls and where they are. I would be interesting to know. I mean, Emerson has been a generally speaking a good poll for Republicans, but respected. I don't know why. It's one thing if you have an internal memo or you caught something in an algorithm or whatever to accuse someone, he may just be giving his opinion.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I saw another pollster giving his opinion saying that Trump could actually win the the popular vote this time too. Yeah, definitely. I mean, that's, that would be, that's a blowout. That's an absolute blowout. If he wins the popular vote. Yeah, like if he wins the popular vote, he likely wins all seven. swing states. Now, I don't know that he goes to that next level. You think about states like
Starting point is 00:18:27 New Hampshire, Virginia, things like that, that he might be able to pick off if he gets past the swing states. Yeah. So a blowout might be sweep. I don't know. Is that, is sweeping all seven swing states by like two points? Is that a blowout election? And the popular vote? Popular vote would be big. If he, if he gets all seven swing states, plus he wins the popular vote, electoral college, yeah, that's pretty definitive in my book. It's pretty definitive. It's pretty definitive. That's a good word for it. It's definitive. I don't know that I would say it was a blowout. Yeah, a blowout would be winning
Starting point is 00:18:59 40 states, 41 states. I look at a blowout as like McCain Obama. Yeah. Right. Like that was a blowout. I mean, it was never felt like it was close. You know, maybe for a week after they announced Sarah Palin, and that was it. Okay. Back in just a second. Let me tell you about the international fellowship of Christians and Jews. We're just a few days away from an incredibly
Starting point is 00:19:19 important election. One, which could easily make or break us as a country. And that's scary enough for us at home, but also scary for some of our allies overseas, especially Israel. The news cycle marches on, but let's not forget they're in the middle of a war. I read a story today that said Iran is holding back until our election is over because they don't want to tilt anything in favor of Donald Trump. So they're holding back right now. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. That should, by the way, tell you an awful lot that Iran doesn't want Donald Trump to win. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews are helping support of a lot of Israelis who have
Starting point is 00:20:03 been driven out of their homes by constant warfare that's been going on since October 7th of last year. By the way, I got an update. I met with these guys last week and a really cool update. Remember we were trying to buy all of those bomb shelters that were at bus stops and by schoolyards, etc, et cetera, et cetera. We raised enough money. We bought all of them. And I can't tell you how many children have been saved. Schools have been bombed.
Starting point is 00:20:29 These whole areas have been bombed. And the kids have been saved by those bus stops. That's you. That's an amazing thing. Stand with Israel and the Jewish people. It's never met more than it does right now. Go to support.ifcj.org. Learn more and give a gift right now.

I thought, you know, I thought the podcast for this weekend should be something a little lighter, you know, and something rooted in values and principles. So we have 4 E.J. Smith on. You might not know his name, but you absolutely know his face. You might even know his voice.
Starting point is 00:21:27 He's the guy on Yellowstone. He's the cowboy that has been at Yellowstone, who is, gosh, it's been so long since I've even watched it, the right hand of the right hand of Kevin Costner. He takes people to the train station all the time. But he's exactly like that character. It's amazing. He has a sketchy pass that he kind of, you know, cleaned up. And he's just a great guy.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Anyway, he talks about, you know, living on the border here in America and having to track illegals that were taking his cattle into Mexico. And it was drug cartel stuff. He said, it is absolutely a war. He tells a story about going over the border to try to get his cattle from the drug cartels and just being terrified about doing. about doing it, but doing it because it was the right thing. It's cowboy wisdom and real common sense. He's also the ambassador for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. It's available right now on Blaze TV for subscribers and tomorrow,
Starting point is 00:22:45 wherever you get your podcast from Yellowstone, his fight to make American Cowboys great again. It's the Glenbeck podcast available everywhere. tomorrow. What would you give today to end abortion in this country? Your money, your time, your love, compassion, your prayers. The truth is, it's going to take all of those things because there's no quick and easy fix to the demonic stain of abortion. It is demonic. What we're going through right now is a war against principalities. We are fighting a war against evil itself. And to do that, we have to love everybody involved.
Starting point is 00:23:37 We have to change hearts and minds in this country. I am proud to be sponsored by and partnered with pre-born. Every day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for them up to two years after the baby is born. The left always says, we don't care about the babies. We don't care about the mom. Yes, we do. Yes, we do.
Starting point is 00:24:00 One ultrasound is $28 or $100. $140 will help rescue five babies' lives. This, we will find favor in the eyes of God. Save his children. Preborn.com slash Beck, preborn.com slash Beck, or hit pound 250, keyword baby. Propaganda Wars, new book by Glenn Beck. It is available now by it at glens, newbook.com. All right, I want to prepare you for what could happen, an emphasis on could happen next week.
Starting point is 00:24:44 and everything I'm about to share with you, these are not my words. These are the words from the actual war games, from the left. And I'll explain, you'll understand, you know, over the next couple of minutes.
Starting point is 00:24:59 So this is not a conspiracy theory. This is not my opinion. These are the facts of what is being planned. I just think we all need to be prepared for any potential outcome that is being planned right now just in case. You know, what happens if Kamala wins a close contested election next week? What happens if the vote count is in question?
Starting point is 00:25:25 What happens if Trump supporters engage in protesters? What happens on certification day? January 6th? Well, I want to start with something that was in the Washington Post in 2017. Three retired generals declared that the country must prepare now for a real insurrection in 2024. That's 2017, they said that. This is why when Biden got in, he purged the military of any Trump supporters, anybody who was online supporting Trump and anyone who didn't take the vaccine because they were assumed to be Trump supporters. In that article, they seem to be worried about dissension
Starting point is 00:26:07 from within the United States military. In other words, some on the left in 2017 were expecting and predicting an actual coup this time around if Trump lost. Now, is this bull crap? Trump supporters in the military are not willing to defy the U.S. government. This feeds into the entire January 6 hysteria the Democrats have been pushing for four years. But here we have these three retired generals talking about it. So is that true? Well, I don't know a single officer that is going to, you know, in the ranks, not up at the highest levels, that is going to violate the Constitution.
Starting point is 00:26:54 They know they swear an allegiance to the Constitution, not to the President, if he is asking for illegal things to be done, unconstitutional things. Now, we have to consider, are they will, how far are they willing to go if Trump protests, no matter how peaceful they may be, gather in. places like Washington, D.C. We have never expected a weaponized government and never expected how weaponized the federal government, you know, could become after January 6th. Consider that we still don't know how many federal officers, FBI officers, were even on the ground and if they were involved. We still don't know who planted the pipe bombs.
Starting point is 00:27:37 We still don't know why Kamala Harris's Secret Service detail deleted text messages from that day on why they moved her away from the Capitol. What is our government willing to do? What have they done? And what are they willing to do this time? Well, it turns out, we kind of know because there's been another war game. This was the White House, the Pentagon, and Congress have been briefed now on the findings of this war game.
Starting point is 00:28:07 It's a progressive veterans group. They conducted a January 6 war game. even turned it into a documentary. So you can see all of this. It assumed the worst, including a pro-Trump rally on January 6, which spins completely out of control, including members of the military switching sides, echoing the Washington Post article in 2021. The game attendees included some of the biggest anti-Trump fanatics in the country, including the Trump impeachment witness, Alexander Vinman, the disgraced FBI agent, Peter Strzok, General Wesley Clark, and even, and I kid you not, Bill Crystal.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Okay, so everyone involved in this is viriantly anti-Trump. Now, this is obvious fan fiction here. It's what they dream could happen. But listen to the capabilities they talk about. Listen to this. For me, the question is, what's next? So we have all this capability from a federal perspective. What can you do?
Starting point is 00:29:13 What should you do if our guard forces and our law enforcement capabilities are not sufficient strength to be able to handle things? You can authorize lethal force to protect law enforcement officers. Pause for just a second. Is that correct? You could have federal? We've done it on the southwest border. We could have federal troops that with a presidential directive can protect law enforcement with lethal force. Got it?
Starting point is 00:29:37 So these are anti-Trump advisors, war gaming, saying the president can do lethal force. Okay. So they're talking about the U.S. military authorized to kill American citizens just to clarify. But let's go on. I would just urge you. And I know you've been resistant to doing surveillance on certain people, but you have to assume about the worst case scenario. No, no. What is your red line?
Starting point is 00:30:05 I think that's right. And to be clear, my. Only hesitancy was a FISA on strictly. Everybody else would be fine. Okay, this is former governor Steve Bullock playing the president, discussing with Heidi Heidcamp, potentially spying on his running mate. He's hesitant to do due to how bad that might look, but surveillance on every other American citizen he's good with.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Here's more of that discussion. This time, General Clark, playing the chairman of the Joint Joint. chiefs of staff. Is there a way we could get legal authority to monitor General Sims and Strickland and what they're saying to each other and what I think that's a bad idea. The short answer is yes. The question is whether we should. I just beat him by six tenths of one percent.
Starting point is 00:30:58 And we're in a deeply divided country right now. No one has to know whether we're monitoring this phone or not. No one has to know that. has to know that. Notice they're making this all about politics. They're not making it about principles. But if no one knows, it makes it okay, I guess, doesn't it? Okay, so the scenario they're talking about is one that is clearly out of the ordinary and insane. But how long would it take for the Biden-Harris regime to jump to these conclusions if a few thousand protesters showed up to D.C. on January 6th. And we know that this war game was briefed to the Biden-Harris
Starting point is 00:31:37 White House, the Pentagon and Congress, spying on Americans, authorizing lethal force on American citizens. Now, this is all interesting context given the recent update over at the Department Defense, about a month ago, the Pentagon revised the DoD Directive 524.01. This is a directive that dates back to the Cold War and it stipulates the guidelines for if or what, when U.S. military intelligence can assist domestic law enforcement. Now, before last month, there was a revision made in 2016. It stipulates on page 5, the military intelligence involvement is pursuant to presidential or congressional action. In other words, a time of war.
Starting point is 00:32:27 It also warns that, quote, they may not investigate U.S. persons or collect or maintain information about them solely for, for the purpose of monitoring activities protected by their First Amendment or their lawful exercise of other rights secured by the Constitution. Okay, so that's comforting. Also, the fact the words lethal or deadly force do not show up a single time in this revision in 2016 in the directive. Not once. However, about a month ago, it was revamped. And everybody says, don't worry about it. not a problem. Well, in light of what the left
Starting point is 00:33:11 is war gaming right now, maybe we should be a little concerned about it. The words First Amendment in the directive were taken out. Also, it now includes levels of authority, and the language this time adds in lethality, lethal force, death, or serious bodily injury. Now, why? Why is there suddenly a need to refine the rules on U.S. military intelligence spying on Americans a few weeks before a pivotal election? Why did they feel it was necessary to add in the potential use of those assets using lethal force just a few weeks before that election?
Starting point is 00:33:56 We asked the Pentagon to clarify. We got a email back that's very similar to the fact sheet they gave recently to Congress. we obtained that fact sheet, so this apparent nothing burger rated an official explainer to Congress and the explainers to lowly outlets such as us. The response they gave us is this. The reissued directive does not reflect any change to the DOD's views towards its role in supporting civil authorities. That's not the question. To include law enforcement.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Rather, it provides clarification and delineates the appropriate. approval authorities for activities conducted by the defense intelligence components. While the paragraph that's been most frequently referenced on social media is new to this directive, it does not reflect any change to the DOD's policy regarding the use of lethal force by DOD personnel. That is addressed in DOD-50-10.56, arming and use of force. Visions of DOD issuances are routine and ensure the departmental policies continue to be consistent with the law and executive branch policy, and they clearly articulate departmental policy. The release in no way is timed in relation to the election or any other event. Now there's more. We have the full statement up at glenbeck.com, but here's what they're saying.
Starting point is 00:35:26 Nothing to see here. Nothing. Nothing. The timing on the election? Coincidence. Any ties? to this war gaming, nonsense. And the DOD directive that they listed shows that this is just business as usual, DOD 510.556. What exactly is that one? Well, we looked at it. We have it up. To me, it looks like guidelines for the military that does security around their own bases
Starting point is 00:35:56 and things like that. Now, is it just me? Or why is this being used as the example? of business as usual. How is military around bases? Now, this could very well be nothing, but it also could be something. We don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:16 The government language, as usual, is full of confusing bull crap. So we have a fact check from the University of Washington. They state that the spread of this story is due to a data void. In other words, the government's not being clear. We don't know. We don't have the information. We have no idea.
Starting point is 00:36:36 At any rate, I find it suspicious, given the left's recent January 6th war game and what they discussed there, that we can use military force and lethal force on the American public. Now, again, I don't think the military, I don't think the actual soldiers would turn their guns on average American citizens. I just don't think that is part of it. I don't. No matter who's president, I just don't think they would do that. Maybe they would. I would remind everybody in the military, your oath is to the Constitution of the United States. No matter if it is Kamala Harris or Donald Trump, your oath is to the Constitution of the United States. and in times like these, we made sure to make sure everybody in the world knows,
Starting point is 00:37:41 me, I was just following orders is not an excuse, not in America, may have been in Germany until the Nuremberg trials, but just following directions, just following orders, will not excuse you if you are executing unlawful, unconstitutional, orders. Everybody was briefed on this, including the Pentagon. What's being planned? Get out and vote. Be safe. Do everything in the name of peace. And pray like you've never prayed before. May God save our republic. All right. What actually matters for you today? I know your family matters. Faith matters. Living a life of integrity matters.
Starting point is 00:38:34 matters. America matters to you. Well, American Giant was created 13 years ago to save a clothing factory in North Carolina so jobs could be saved. Employees could continue to do work. That matters, but also American Giant wanted to save and bring back American manufacturing. I just saw an article today about how some of the people over in Europe, some of the leaders in Europe, are actually secretly praying for Donald Trump to win because they know with the trade wars, will have to start manufacturing things again in our own Western countries, and they think that's a good thing. So do I. So does American Giant. So they brought these machines back that we had sold years and years and years ago to Japan.
Starting point is 00:39:18 They refurbished them, brought them back from Japan, and put them in this factory, and then trained everybody to work on these. These are the ones that make the sweatshirts like they used to be made back in the 60s and early 70s, when they were just great and lasted forever. They now make the sweatshirts, the sweatpants, they make the best hoodie you'll ever own. And it's all made with American cotton from American farmers, American sewers, American cutters, American pattern makers, all of it here in America. Where you spend your money matters.

We were just talking in the break about all these war games. And Sarah, our board producer, what were you saying? I noticed that in your book, Propaganda Wars,
Starting point is 00:40:37 that you also mentioned a war game for COVID and how perfectly detailed they match to what actually happened. Right. And this sounds like it's perfectly matching to what's happening. Well, maybe. Yeah, maybe. Is that common for the war games to match? So war games are important to happen.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Our Pentagon should always be doing war games. However, what's changing here is, A, they're getting very, very specific, and they are all being run by lefties. And so when you don't have the balance in the war game, you're not pulling from both sides. You're pulling all from really one side, and your balance is Bill Crystal. and they're very specific, you don't know which is the cart and which is the horse. You don't know what is leading what, and so they become concerning. War games themselves are not concerning, but these are concerning because of the way they're being executed, and then you see the things being set into place that back those war games

It drives me nuts. I hate that. Anyway, so I have Mantis X now, and you can dry fire. You can live fire if you want, but this is what they train the military on now. You can take it. It was, I think, first for the Marines, and, you know, they're great. And then it just spread throughout the military because 94% of the shooters use it for 20 minutes,

Starting point is 00:45:29 That's mantisX.com. Danny Goki is a friend and a friend of the program and a big friend of Mercury 1. He has helped us raise money and he's been at some of our gala's and he was just there. I think it was last Saturday. If you don't know the name, he was a top three finalist on season eight of American Idol. He became huge quickly. He dropped his first album. my best days, debuted at number four on the Billboard top 200 album chart.
Starting point is 00:46:04 He's had a series of number ones since then. He was at our gala on Saturday, and he performed a song. I was here early enough to hear him do a sound check, and it was amazing. I mean, everybody who was setting up just stopped and listened, and you could tell it came from someplace deep. And I want to play it here in a second, but before I want to get Danny on the line with me. Hi, Danny. Hey, good morning, Glenn.
Starting point is 00:46:35 How are you? I'm great. Where did this song come from? Well, it started in 2023. I should say 2022, I was invited to sing at my friend's celebration party and her father who's a business owner very successful of a restaurant chain, Jeff Ruby. His name is Jeff Ruby himself, and he invited me to sing, God bless the USA. And I'm singing there. They're naming a street after him.
Starting point is 00:46:58 And I sing this song, God bless the USA, sing in a cappella, and it just stuck with me. And I just started thinking, I was like, I had to release songs and redo some of these songs that celebrate America because we're not hearing songs about our country anymore. When the music stops, the patriotism stops. Just like if I stop, you know, singing to God, like my passion for God fades away.
Starting point is 00:47:19 If I'm not sending my wife music that is, you know, romantic music, the romance is fading. And so I just started mowing on. I'm going to write, I just said, I'm going to reduce some patriots. songs. We need to get that patriotism back up. And then I had an idea to write a song. And this song came to me. It's called My America. You understand my wife's family was kicked out of communism. My wife's family, everything was taken away by a communist dictator that sold the whole country
Starting point is 00:47:50 on these lies of how great they were and how they were going to help people. It basically just gas with the people. And my wife's family was kicked out. of communist Cuba, my wife's mother-law was, excuse me, my wife's mother was very wealthy. And her grandfather was a very outspoken lawyer and had houses on the beach, houses inland. Long story short, my wife's mom lives with us and she was raised with maids and servants and now she lives with us at our house and she works at Walmart. Everything taken away at the young age of 18 years old. And so anyway, so I wanted to write a song.
Starting point is 00:48:21 So I started writing this song called My America. And how I just still believe in our country and how I still believe in our country and how I still believe in the American dream. And I mean, I sat at the piano. I just started writing, and this song was birthed out of it. It wasn't my intention to write a new patriotic song. My intention was to cover the old ones and reignite patriotism. But it just so turns out that our generation needs this type of, I believe, I'm not trying
Starting point is 00:48:46 of, you know, top my own horn, but two my own horn, but I'm just saying our generation needs believers again. We lost believers in the American truth. In matter of fact, we have people who actually are turning their hearts against their own country. And it's when the music stops and the patriotism stops, this is what happens. I have to tell you, I mean, the first thing I said to you after I heard it, I came up to the stage in the sound check and I said, do you remember what I said to you? Writing a patriotic song. Oh yeah, I do now. Yeah. It's not easy. It's cheesy real quick. And this is anything but.
Starting point is 00:49:21 I mean, it is so good. And I hope you recognized how long the audience stood in a standing ovation for you after this song. It is just tremendous. I want to play it. Go ahead. No, I just want to say thank you. I appreciate it. Where I'm noticing everywhere ago, I'm on tour right now, and I do this song at the end of my set because we're an election season, right?
Starting point is 00:49:43 And I just, we just need people to kind of snap out of the rhetoric that has caused them to turn their hearts against the country and go back and remember the good things, right? Right? Yep. And that's what the song is about, remembering the good things. If I only remember my wife's mistakes and trust me, she makes a lot of mistakes. Sounding like, starting with maybe marrying you, it sounds like, possibly. You could edit that out. I hope you don't know.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Anyway, if I just remember her mistakes, I mean, you literally just, it's the end of the marriage. Yes. You just to go back and remember the good. And that's what I hope this song does. Okay. Here it is. This is the latest from Danny Goki. it is called
Starting point is 00:50:20 Gosh, what's called? Hang on just say. My America. My America, I still believe. Hear them say, our country's far too gone. Even claim our father's got it wrong. But I won't give up on us
Starting point is 00:50:58 and I'll take a stand because we can overcome. this is not the end. Stars and strong America. Now is the time of our falls because United. Fantastic. That's My America, I still believe. And it's by Danny Goki.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Go to Spotify and iTunes and download it and spread the word. I think you should sing this at the inauguration. I mean, if one side wins, you should say. I don't think, unfortunately, I don't think I'd be allowed to sing this song on the other side. And I think that's a key indicator. Do you hear songs being celebrated of America on the other side of the lane? I guess I haven't been in a rally, but I see a lot of footage from it, and I never see that. But I was able to sing this song in just this past week in Atlanta in front of Trump.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Oh, what did he say? What did he say? Well, he, so, I got to try to explain it. So it was for a faith rally, the faith director. And anyways, they brought me up. They were trying, you know, the campaign, Trump's got a busy schedule. So the campaign was questioning, why is, are we having Trump on stage when Danny's singing the song? This makes a sense.
Starting point is 00:55:24 And schedules busy. They really pushed through and I got up there. I have a video on my social media of me doing it. And you can tell Trump at first didn't know what was going on, because they just don't bring people on stage and sing for him. You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. No, I know. I went and did that, and you can tell when I got to the America part, his face lit up, and then he called me over by him to shake his hand.
Starting point is 00:55:45 I'm really hoping. I still don't know if he really knows a song yet, but it was cool that I finally, because I wrote this song last year in 2023, and I finally got the thing, but I'm hoping to sing it in front of the inauguration because Trump needs to become like a father to the nation like Lincoln and like Washington. You know, when we were in such division and hopefully, and hopefully, hopefully, you know, when he wins, I hope. Begins the Father Nation and bring people together again. And this is a song for people who lost faith in America.
Starting point is 00:56:13 It's a song, you know, Lee Greenwood, you know, he's got God bless USA, proud to be an American. Not many people are proud to be in America because of the rhetoric. Right. So we need, this is this generation, I believe, like proud to be an American because we've got to get people to believe again, to be proud again, to be. So I'm hoping that it's a song of unity that can be sung at the inauguration.
Starting point is 00:56:32 I hope so, too. I will I will I'll send it to him make sure that he remembers or he was reminded because I agree it's time to come together as people and I I hope that what we're seeing in America I know it's the beginning of something I know that there are more and more people waking up and saying I don't want to do this anymore you know I don't hate my country you know we've made mistakes but I don't want to hate my neighbor I don't I don't want this anymore. And that change is coming. Hopefully it will be reflected on Tuesday, but that change is coming. And I really believe, especially looking at the way Donald Trump has been handling everything recently, I think he actually, you would think would be the last person that could unite us. And I think he may be one of the only people who actually can get it done.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Look at what he's doing with. RFK and Tulsi and everybody else. Elon Musk, man, they don't agree with everything he says. It's great. Yeah. And you're exactly right, Glenn. He is, I think God called him to be a businessman to a president. And I really sense that God has called now to be a go from president this term to a father. And just like every household of the father, my kids are divided and the father has to come in and bring him together. I really sense that that's going to be his call on this next president. See, there's kids, our kids, the kids of America are fighting. We need you to bring us together.
Starting point is 00:58:04 And how do we come together by believing? Unity comes through faith. Love believes all things. Love hopes all things. You know, love endures all things. So believing what you believe about something directly impacts, impacts how you treat that thing. And so I think, I'm hoping he brings us together, and I believe he will.
Starting point is 00:58:24 Danny, thank you so much. Thanks for your friendship. And thank you for all of your good work. You are amazing. You really are. Thank you, Danny. I appreciate you, Glenn. Appreciate your support.
Starting point is 00:58:33 You bet. Hopefully, Donald Trump, here's the song again. Yeah. Thanks a lot. Danny Goki. You can follow him on his website, Danny Goki.
Starting point is 00:58:42 That's G-O-K-E-Y-G-G-E-Y-G-G-E-G-Gy. Or you can follow him, you know, an ex-Danny Goki. All right. Back in just a second. Some things don't ever change. For instance, if you're a hardworking an American with a family,

Starting point is 01:00:14 10 seconds. Station ID. I'm sorry, I have got to go someplace that the left is now saying that last night in an interview with Tucker Carlson, Donald Trump, called for the execution of Lynn Cheney. This is so far from the truth. It is, I mean, they don't care. They just don't care. They will say and do anything. And you mean Liz Cheney, correct?
Starting point is 01:00:55 I think he said Lynn. Oh, yeah, Liz, Cheney. So I want you to listen to this clip. I have it over here, Sarah, if you just bring this up. But his daughters... I'll blame him for sticking in with his daughter. But his daughter's a very dumb individual, very dumb. She's a radical war hawk.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrel shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face, Okay, now listen to this. She's a war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? Let's put her there with a rifle with nine barrels pointed at her. So the context is they're talking about war, constantly wanting to go to war.
Starting point is 01:01:42 That's what the left always said about Dick Cheney. He was a war hawk. All he wanted was blood for oil, right? So he's still in that place. the Democrats have moved off from it, but he's still in that place. And he says, she just is always preaching war. Why don't we put her with a rifle? Now, if you're asking for an execution, I don't think we arm the convicted.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Do we? Is that new? We put you in front of a firing range, but you get to pull a couple of, you know, you can take down a couple of them before they shoot. What is that? That's not an execution. That's saying, let's put her in war. Let's see how war hawkish she becomes if she has to go to war with a rifle and there are nine people around trying to shoot her. That's how dishonest this press is.
Starting point is 01:02:35 They are running with this like crazy. It's on CNN right now. Liz Cheney should be shot with guns trained on her face. Did she say she should be shot even? Here it is again. Give it the whole thing. Give me the whole context. Can you go all the way to the beginning of this thing?
Starting point is 01:02:53 And I don't blame him for sticking in with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual, very dumb. She's a radical war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrel shooting at her, okay? Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face. And I don't blame him for sticking in with his own. He does not say she would be shot. He says that people would be shooting at her.
Starting point is 01:03:20 Correct. Right? Like that's what... In war. And more. Right. Blatently not about execution. Blatently, I mean, it's so, the second I heard, the accusation I knew it was false, right?
Starting point is 01:03:32 They said this week, they have spent two days saying they wouldn't even, the right wouldn't even give the grace to Joe Biden. The apostrophe. The apostrophe. The grace. Give him the grace. How about just telling the truth on this? And by the way, this is not like a never before stated concept. Right? Every person who's against war, by the way, this used to be the left doing this all the time.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I know. They would always say things like, oh, yeah, well, let's see George Bush's daughters over there in Iraq. Exactly right. They would say something like that all the time. Right? All the time. It wasn't like, oh, they called for Jenna Bush's assassination. We never said that. We understood the point they were making. It might have been a dumb point, but it was a point I understood. And let me just, let me just, let me just point out here. they're lying again. Why would anyone in America allow these lies to permeate their lives? Why would you listen to them? All right, let me tell you about silver. Silver is on the rise.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Just as of January 2024, which is when I started talking to you about Lear Capital, the price of silver just since January of this year has gone up by 39%. This is unprecedented. Now, why? Well, they think it could go up between, in the short term, between 60 and 100%. Again, why? It's because of demand on solar energy, electric cars, new battery technology. All of these things require huge amounts of silver.
Starting point is 01:05:10 And in case you haven't been paying attention, that demand is global. That demand is in China as well. They're buying massive amounts of silver because they need it. it for the future economy. You need to be building a hedge against the insanity of a failing U.S. dollar, and Lear Capital can help you do that by investing in precious metals. Silver is still cheap.

Starting point is 01:05:50 joins us next at glensnewbook.com. Thank you. He's just texting Rosanne. Rosanne yesterday, she was like, oh, no, I'm going to call you. And I'm like, are you sure? We can call you. Okay, you could call me.
Starting point is 01:06:17 But I got it, I got it. I'm going to be on with you. 9.30. Great. Did you specify a time zone? No, I did. Central. It's all capitalized here.
Starting point is 01:06:26 At central time, blah, blah. She just lives. She lives here in Texas. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, she moved to Texas. We had this great conversation. yesterday and not just not answering her phone. I'm sure she'll,
Starting point is 01:06:38 she'll come through at some point today. It'll be probably about 2.30 at the afternoon. I have a feeling she's, you know, she's a comedian. And, uh, you know, they always hold upside down hours. I'm sure. Very true.
Starting point is 01:06:49 Yeah. Very true. It's been interesting to see that. I mean, I was thinking about the Liz Cheney thing that you mentioned earlier, where Donald Trump, uh, argued for assassination quite clearly. Um, who would have thought, Glenn, by the way that the, the source of all violent rhetoric was the person shot on stage.
Starting point is 01:07:08 It's odd. I really, Sharmelon-esque with that twist. That's the only reason why they're making a big deal out of this. I guess. Like, how can you make... That end, they want to say he is a fascist that's going to shoot everybody who's, you know, disagrees with him. Right.
Starting point is 01:07:25 It just seems like a strange approach to say, well, you know what our closing argument is? He's going to shoot Liz Cheney. He's the guy. He's almost been shot multiple times. in front of her eyes. It doesn't seem like the right approach. And he wasn't given a gun, by the way. Right. He's recommending.
Starting point is 01:07:40 He was talking about war. Give her a gun and have nine, you know, nine rifles, you know, targeting her. Let's see how she feels then. He's talking about war. He's not talking about it. It's a very standard, honestly liberal talking point about war. I mean, like, and Trump has been this way consistently for a very long time. But he probably made that same point about Bush and Cheney.
Starting point is 01:08:03 in 2004, right? Like, I mean, but I was thinking about this as everyone was doing the Liz Cheney thing, and she's on stage campaigning with Kamala Harris everywhere. Can you imagine? Just, like, we'd all have a use for a time machine, okay? Sure, going back and killing baby Hitler is one of those things you might do with it. You might go back and watch some event from your life. But one thing I'd have to put in the rotation at some point if I had the time machine is to go back to 2004, 2005,
Starting point is 01:08:32 and just tell Dick Cheney what's going to happen in 2024, that he and his daughter are going to be the heroes of the left. What a freaking bizarre thing. He was Darth Vader. He was the most hated person in the world. He still is Darth Vader to them. Well, now that he's endorsed Kamala Harris, I don't think that he is. They're not going to invite.
Starting point is 01:08:54 You think he's going over to dinners at people's houses. You think they've fully embraced him? No way. Maybe not. I don't know. maybe. I kind of feel like like, you know, worse than again, I mean, they're for
Starting point is 01:09:05 big business now. I mean, they are everything they ever said they were against. And I feel like you know, Dick Cheney's comments have been, he did endorse Harris, which is incredible. Incredible. But, you know, his comments
Starting point is 01:09:21 Warren has, haven't been as egregious as Liz Cheney's who's like, again, we should remind everybody. It's not like a never-trumper. It's not like a person who's like, I don't know about this. Liz Cheney voted for Donald Trump in 2020. This is a person who wanted Donald Trump to be president right now. That was her vote.
Starting point is 01:09:43 And here she is as the most, she's gone completely off the reservation. And I was thinking, how many of these, how many stories could we tell like this? Roseanne Barr would be one of them. Roseanne Barr couldn't stand you at one point. I don't think we need to. Well, she's not on the phone. Yeah. I don't talk about this.
Starting point is 01:10:01 She's probably asleep. No, but she on, what is it, is it arguing with idiots? Yeah, here it is. Led Beck, he's a vampire and a death lover. That's what Roseanne Barr said about me. Right. It was used as like we always put like quotes on the back of these books. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Keith Olberman, you know, many of these people still hate you. Whoopi Goldberg. I'm proud. Which, by the way, calls you a lying sack of dog mess. Yeah, she's a piece of. Keith Olberman, only in his wildest dreams, could an actual suicide bomber hope to do as much damage to this country? There's all sorts of great stuff like this.
Starting point is 01:10:40 And we did this for several books in a row. Roseanne was one of them. I want to say RFK Jr. was another one. Oh, yeah, no. On one of the back of the books. I think he called for my execution. Well, he did want you dead at one point. Yes.
Starting point is 01:10:50 I don't think he does any more, though. No, he doesn't. You know? And I kind of like him. Yeah. I mean, it's just, it's weird how this stuff happens. It is. It really is.
Starting point is 01:10:58 I was, that's what we were texting back and forth yesterday, Roseanne and I. And I'm like, weren't you a communist at some point? Didn't you? Weren't you like, hey, go Marx? And she's like, no, I went to the Occupy Wall Street thing. Yeah. She said to see what they were doing. And she said, and everybody roped me in to that movement.
Starting point is 01:11:20 She said, I saw them as rich kids protesting daddy who worked on Wall Street. Yeah. She said, I hate the corruption in the big businesses. She's like, no commies, man. I want a return, right? I don't think that's right. I mean, I know. I think that's revisionist. We'll have to maybe ask her about this. But she ran, if my remembrance is correct here. She ran for the Green Party nomination and did not win it. And then actually did wind up being the nominee of the Peace and Freedom Party, which is legitimately to the left of the Green Party. It is an outward socialist party. Now, a lot of people, sometimes you take a nomination because it's convenient.
Starting point is 01:12:05 They've got a ballot in line somewhere. I mean, that stuff does happen. So it could be something like that. I don't know. But that's what I remember from the situation. You know, but who knows? Now she's the queen of the garbage people. That's crazy.
Starting point is 01:12:18 I know. Crazy. Tulsi Gabbard. Tulsi Gabbard was running by the way. Bernie Sanders campaign in 2016 in Hawaii. By the way, I will take one Tulsi, Tulsi for the entire Cheney family. That's a good trade.
Starting point is 01:12:32 I like that. Some of these figures that we've embraced, I'm not as big a fan of with some other people. Tulsi I like, though. I mean, she's just really like, she's smart. I like how calm and balanced she is. You know, even though I don't think I agree with her on a lot of things. And I am, I will say, concerned if Trump does win, that some of these people will have roles that are a little bit too large.
Starting point is 01:12:57 You know what he said about RFK? Yes. His people came out and said he's not talking about a cabinet position. And he said RFK doesn't want one. He's going to put him in charge of studies and coming back, show us what the problem is. But what I liked about Trump's comments on this was, I don't want him anywhere near the environment. Yeah. Like go.
Starting point is 01:13:19 Right. And he's openly saying it. He's not trying to convince anybody that. Totally. Which I absolutely love. At least, you know, let me ask you. who is the brain trust around Kamala Harris? Right?
Starting point is 01:13:35 I mean, it's... You don't even know. You have no idea. All the people in the Biden administration hate her. Now, some of them, I'm sure, are trying to latch on to her now, but they've been leaking bad things about her for years. Right. She's had a couple of people around her sister is a big one. Right.
Starting point is 01:13:53 Right. I mean, I don't know. Tim Walz, a guy who's... Right. He was a football coach once, sort of. You have Tulsi, you have RFK, you have Elon Musk. That's one, another one. Like, Elon Musk is a guy who has the biggest electric car company in the world.
Starting point is 01:14:15 Why? Because he wants to stop global warming so much. He's building spaceships so we can go to Mars one day to avoid the potential output of global warming. And, like, that's probably the one I'm most excited about. I know. I like that. I can't stand the global warming stuff, but like him with the idea of just taking a butcher's knife to the size of the government and just going after waste and all that is, I think, legitimately really exciting. I mean, we could see a major, major change.
Starting point is 01:14:45 Oh, I think, especially if you get the Congress, if they have the Senate and the Congress, massive change is coming. Massive change. And change that, honestly, the left used to say they want to. you know, all the, let's end the wars. Let's audit the Pentagon. Let's make sure that big corporations aren't in bed with the government. I mean, this is all stuff. Let's restore the bill of rights.
Starting point is 01:15:15 Ah, that would be nice. I mean, that's all the stuff that Democrats used to be for. I think most Democrats in the country are still for that. You know, they were talking about this suppressed voter that, you know, did you see the story where is this? Yeah, AOC. AOC is encouraging female voters who are decidedly siding with Harris. While more men are voting for Trump than in previous
Starting point is 01:15:47 she said, you should leave post-it notes in bathrooms for these fearful women in red states. This is real. Your vote is anonymous and confidence. who you vote for is your secret. No one knows unless you tell them. Like, really, you really think that women, this pisses me off. It would piss you off more if you're a woman. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:16:12 Oh, they don't think I have enough pride in myself to tell people who I vote for, honestly. And honestly, you think, what they're trying to say is, we know your husband is oppressive. Yep. Men are bad. What a surprising message from the left. He will beat you if you vote. vote for Kamala Harris. That's what she's saying. It's pathetic. I mean, it's the same, it's the same type of message of we will make sure, uh, black people can't, don't need IDs
Starting point is 01:16:40 to vote. Correct. Right. Like, it's the same nonsense. It's just demeaning and disgusting. You know, what, they're always like, oh, where are the strong women on the right? What women are you talking to? What women are you talking to that are terrified to tell their husband who to vote? What the, what person is this? I don't know any. like that. I don't know anyone like that. I know, I know a woman. I know a woman who is afraid to, oh, thank you.
Starting point is 01:17:06 Who is afraid to express now, afraid to express who they're voting for. Broadway actress, and I think I'm getting this name right, Carrie Manilaccas, Lackos, avid supporter of RFK. She just pointed on posted on Instagram that she's voting for Trump.
Starting point is 01:17:25 So, all of her friends, in show business, all of them saying, it's a no for me. I'm so deeply disappointed in you. What a loss. I met you performing at a fundraiser for Hillary. Was that just a show to further your career? Wow, this deeply satisfies me.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Oh, the career progress of being a Trump supporter of Broadway. Oh, my gosh. The glory comes in from that decision. What kind of idiot even writes that? I'm not sure how you've reached this conclusion or what brought you to this place, but I'm sending you love and hope that you will think of the rights of me, my husband, our daughter, and reconsider your position. You sold out your friends for a gig. I'm complete shock in reading this.
Starting point is 01:18:09 Thank you for showing us who you really are, what it is you value publicly. There's nothing worse than a wolf in sheep's clothing. But here's a woman. Now these people are married to this woman, though, right? I don't think. I'm not saying you don't get pushed back by saying who you vote for. Of course you do. But like, if you're in a marriage where that's going on, like, probably not a good decision at the very least.
Starting point is 01:18:34 I don't know what you're into the marriage where you don't feel comfortable in saying who you're voting for. You're probably in an abusive marriage or something close to it. Close to it, if not an abusive marriage. And you're in a marriage that won't work. If you're afraid to tell your spouse anything, you're in a marriage that's not going to last. I don't tell her about my heroin habit. Does that mean we're in a bad marriage? No, heroin is a doucheon.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Completely different. Okay, good. Completely. Because that does good in the long run. Right. No, but I mean, really, if you are keeping... It's a troubling sign. Let's put it that way. I should overstate it. It's a troubling sign, though. By the way, I love this headline, Glenn, because you mentioned, you know, the Congress getting in control of Republicans. This shocked me. This is in New York Times. They wrote a big... It's an eight-minute 41-second read if you wanted to go through it. So, you know, a couple thousand words, right? Not a short story. Right. Here's the headline. A unified Republican Congress would give a... Trump broad power for his agenda. Now, that's just describing our system of government. That's all that is. That's all that headline says.
Starting point is 01:19:38 Now, I found it fascinating for that reason because it doesn't tell you anything. Right. Of course, if Donald Trump wins and Republicans win the Congress, he's going to have power to implement his agenda. That is literally how our system works. Assuming the GOP is not the GOP of the past. Right, right. Right.
Starting point is 01:19:55 But they should, in theory. Like tax cuts. That was part of his agenda. They got control of Congress. What happened? They passed tax cuts. Yes, that's how it works. But, like, you could write this article very easily the opposite way.
Starting point is 01:20:09 A unified Democrat Congress would give Kamala Harris broad support for her agenda. Correct. But that's not scary to New York Times readers. Right. Right. So they write it this way, even though it's obviously true both ways, it's scary to the New York Times readers. So they write it like this to terrify you for a victory for Trump. What was the last time you picked up a New York Times?
Starting point is 01:20:30 Like a physical copy? I mean, it had to be at a hotel. So, yeah, I was at a hotel. Right. I was at a hotel yesterday. And I picked up a physical copy. Oh my gosh. It's worse.
Starting point is 01:20:41 It's worse when you're actually reading, when it's sitting there. You pick it up and you read it. And the whole front page is like clown country. It is just crazy. All right. Back in just a second. I miss the old days when doing business was just doing business. just doing business. But sadly, that's not how the world works currently. And too many companies
Starting point is 01:21:01 have swung for the fences with leftist ideology. Not Patriot Mobile. Switching is really easy. You're going to pay a lot less and you'll be contributing to a company that is worth your hard-earned money. I didn't even carry a phone until I got one so I could be a customer of theirs. I've misplaced that particular phone. But Patriot Mobile is the nation's only Christian conservative mobile phone company. It's on the same cell towers as all the major carriers. So you get the same great service, but at half the cost. Patriot Mobile has affordable, customizable plans for any family, and they donate a portion
Starting point is 01:21:39 of your bill to conservative causes. Right now, when you make the switch to Patriot Mobile, you're going to get a whole month for free. They're America's only conservative Christian mobile phone company. So go to PatriotMobil.com slash back or call 972 Patriot. You get a free month of service today. 972 Patriot, Patriot mobile.com slash Beck. This is the Glenn Beck program.
Starting point is 01:22:02 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. We're so glad that you're listening today. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It's going to be a great weekend. I hope that you will go out and enjoy it. I hope you will go out also and prepare every needful thing. You know, just in case something happens on Tuesday. You just don't know. what's coming your way. And we're fighting against evil, I really believe. And I don't mean that as people.
Starting point is 01:22:49 I mean as a force. There's just a force of evil that just has so much of our world by the throat right now. Just do everything you can to keep the spirit with you. Pray for the safety of our republic and, quite frankly, all candidates on all sides. We just need peace and love in our hearts, especially next. week. The Glenn Beck program. I want to talk to you about First Liberty. Do you remember when Donald Trump first got into office? We all kind of against hope that he was going to put an actual conservative leaning justice into the Supreme Court. And then amazingly, he did. The left
Starting point is 01:23:26 cannot stand it. They're trying to eliminate that conservative majority right now. Another reason why Donald Trump's got to win. We've got a few of them that are getting very, very old. When you hear about them talking about reforming the Supreme Court. You need to understand that's packing the court. But right now, if we unite our voices, we can take action together. We can put a stop to this. The future of the court of preserving an independent judiciary is literally in our hands. We cannot lose it. The people at First Liberty have been fighting for this. They need a million patriots standing up for the Supreme Court so we can safeguard the independence for our judiciary, like the founders intended.
Starting point is 01:24:08 Go to Supreme Coup, that's C-O-U-P, Supreme Coo.com slash Glenn. Supreme Coo-Coo-com slash Glenn. Learn how you can help stop the radical F's takeover of the Supreme Court. And I tell you, I can't take the dishonesty. This Liz Cheney thing is everywhere. She's just responded, you know, because they said that Donald Trump last night said that he wanted her executed. This is how dictators destroy free nations.
Starting point is 01:25:46 They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. Women will not be silenced. Oh, shut up, Liz. Shut up. You know, I have no problem with people who disagree with me. I have no problem who see the world differently.
Starting point is 01:26:07 I do have a problem with people who intentionally lie. And that's what the mainstream media and Liz Cheney are trying to do. They're trying to make this into the October surprise that see he really is Hitler. What Donald Trump said last night was Liz Cheney is a war monger. Her and her father have wanted every war there is. But why don't we give her a rifle and send her out and have nine other rifles target her? See how she feels when the guns are in her face. This was about war.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Not execution, not silencing somebody that, you know, he disagrees with. It's about put yourself in the shoes of the people who actually fight all of these wars that the Cheneas are always for. That's what that's about. The mainstream media is so desperate, they've got to do anything they can to help Kamala. She is so desperate, I think, to be relevant and to help the war machine just continue to go on and on and on, because it's now, that is the Democratic Party. Wars will go on, and they will get ourselves entangled in more wars, including, I believe, a global war if Kamala wins.
Starting point is 01:27:26 Did you hear her speech when she was nominated? In her acceptance speech, she sounded like Dick Cheney. She was talking about big war. That's another reason why. They're not just desperate. they want to make sure that their own voters, their own Democrats who are not leftist and extremists, that don't like war, they can't allow them to understand that Donald Trump was talking about her being a war monger. Not him, her, and how the left is now mongering for war.
Starting point is 01:28:04 I cannot take the dishonesty, and hopefully Tuesday, that will come to a nonger. end. More in just a second. First, let me tell you, over a decade ago after trying to sell a home and continually hitting a brick wall with real estate agents, I had enough. I didn't know how to even interview a real estate agent. You just call it, can you sell my house? And they're like, sure we can. Sign here. And you do. I started meeting with some of the top real estate agents in the country. I was doing business with the 500 best real estate agents, according to the Wall Street Journal in the country. And I learned what separates a great agent. And I learned what separates a great agent from a good agent and a bad agent. These were people who did things differently. They knew the
Starting point is 01:28:47 best practices. I didn't even know what best practices were in the real estate world. And they change, okay? You now have to be a digital marvel. If you are really good at the internet, you're going to have people that are constantly checking the website. You know how to get the houses that you're selling up to the top so people see it. And that way, you've already got a built-in buyer. base when you post that home for a client. I'm a businessman. I like bringing my good fortune to other people and help other people. So I started a business called Real Estate Agents I Trust. And now we put you in touch with those agents. So whether you're buying or selling a home or both, you're going to have the best possible experience with the least amount of headache. Reach out to them today. You'll see
Starting point is 01:29:37 what I mean. Real estate agents, I trust.com. The name says it all. Real estate agents, I trust. dot com. Oh, man. Oh, man. Okay. So while they are doing this with Liz Cheney, you have
Starting point is 01:29:55 the New York Times election falsehoods take off on YouTube as it looks the other way. Now, this story we've known has been coming now for about a week, and they finally published it today. This is nothing other than a threat to Google and YouTube to silence anyone who is disagreeing.
Starting point is 01:30:20 And I will give you the one thing that everybody has missed on this at the end of this story. Okay. So the story from the New York Times is this. In June 2023, YouTube decided to stop fighting the most. persistent strain of election misinformation in the United States. The falsehood that President Biden stole the 2020 election from Donald J. Trump. Now, I ask you first, if you just want to be a fair arbiter, are they stopping all of the videos of Hillary Clinton saying in 2016 that he's an illegitimate president, that he knew he was an
Starting point is 01:31:02 illegitimate president, that Russia had aided him in winning it? Are they limiting those? or demonetizing any of those videos? The answer is no. It's just the 2020. Within months, the largest video platform became a home for election conspiracy theories, half-truths and lies. They in turn became the source of revenue for YouTube,
Starting point is 01:31:26 which announced growing quarterly ad sales on Tuesday. Now, what is that? Why is that there? Because that is the New York Times through media matters, telling YouTube, we could boycott you and your advertisers. We'll cause hell to rain down on you. That's a threat, believe it or not, to Google. While media matters, this entire story on Media Matters,
Starting point is 01:31:53 you know who Media Matters is. Media Matters was started with Hillary Clinton and George Soros. It is nothing but a tool used by the Uber left to destroy. destroy anyone who can make any kind of impact with conservative arguments. That's all it is. While Media Matters is a progressive organization that regularly criticizes conservatives, reporters and academics frequently cited as a source of YouTube misinformation, because it devotes significant resources to tracking the vast platform.
Starting point is 01:32:28 They're not tracking the vast platform. They're tracking conservatives. They're coming up. They start and reverse engineer. Who do we want to destroy? Find a way to destroy them. That's what they do. This is well documented.
Starting point is 01:32:41 And at first, I really thought when I was at CNN and Media Matters was just starting, I really thought, okay, they don't know. The media doesn't know. They get used to in the old days, get faxes. Now they get emails. All the reporters, all of the networks, even Fox, they get something from Media Matters every day says, these are the targets. This is what's going on.
Starting point is 01:33:02 And they run with them. Now, back in 2004, maybe you could understand that because they were new. Now, everyone knows what they are. And here's the New York Times, coutowing. 30 conservative channels on YouTube posted 286 videos containing election misinformation, which racked up more than 47 million views. YouTube generated revenue from more than a third of those videos by placing ads before or during them, researchers found researchers meaning media matters. Some commentators also made money from those
Starting point is 01:33:40 videos and other monetized features available to members of the YouTube partner program. Commentators included former elected officials such as Rudolph W. Giuliani. Journalists like Tucker Carlson, who said the last presidential election was stolen and popular pundits like Ben Shapiro, who said Democrats rigged the voting. rules in 2020. I've heard him talk about that before, Shapiro in particular. You know who he quoted? This is an actual quote.
Starting point is 01:34:12 The New York Times. He was quoting the New York Times that led him to that conclusion the way they had, you know, Mark Elias and everybody had done all of the engineering because of COVID and all of the lawsuits and getting these changed. That's what he was talking about. Right. He's not one that believes in Sydney, No, he doesn't.
Starting point is 01:34:35 Conspiracy theories. He doesn't. He's been very clear that like the technical rule changes before the election may very well have been the determinative factor. Right. And he said they rigged it. They legally rigged it. They went in and they did everything and the Republicans were just asleep at the switch. But he doesn't think that it was stolen.
Starting point is 01:34:55 That's very, very clear. But notice the New York Times doesn't make that clear. Then it goes on YouTube, which is owned by Google, has primed. It has tried it itself on connecting viewers with authoritative information about elections, but in this presidential context, it has acted as a megaphone for conspiracy theories. A research director at Media Matters who led the analysis said YouTube is allowing these right-wing accounts and channels to undermine the 2024 results. YouTube spokesperson said that the company reviewed eight videos identified by the Times and the ability to openly debate, political ideas, even those that are controversial, is an important value, especially in the
Starting point is 01:35:41 midst of election season. Most of the 30-track channels are ineligible for advertising. So they've already cut the money off. You watch any of my videos? I don't make a dime on YouTube. Don't make a dime on YouTube. Nothing. They have so suppressed our numbers, we haven't grown in, like, I don't even know, five years. It's not even possible. We're growing. We're growing. everywhere by leaps and bounds. I am more the footprint, let's say it this way, because that sounded really egotistical. The footprint of this program is bigger than it ever has been. We're growing in every metric except for social media.
Starting point is 01:36:25 Now, how does that happen? How does that happen? Most of the 30-track channels are ineligible for advertising. some had previously violated the company's content policies. The spokesperson added this report demonstrates our consistent approach to enforcing our policies. But in June 2023, the platform reversed course saying creators were allowed to dispute the outcome of any past presidential race as YouTube tried to offer a home for open discussion and debate during the ongoing election season. Now, does that sound bad? Does that sound bad?
Starting point is 01:37:00 we can debate anything in this nation, anything. And anyone who's trying to silence that debate, I don't even want to silence Holocaust deniers. Let them hang themselves with their own words, okay? You should be able to debate anything. It's the United States of America. So YouTube says, we're just trying to be a home for discussion and debate. Okay. YouTube declined to comment on how it would reimpose a ban on misinformation about the outcome of the race.
Starting point is 01:37:38 YouTube removed only three of the videos that Media Matters found and placed information labels on them to link to factual information on 21 of them, though most of the election labels were later removed. Some of the commentators seized on the news of the events. Mr. Trump's conviction on May 30th, on 34 felony counts, cash potential. who served in the Trump administration posted on an independent television network that the justice system was rigged against the former president to interfere with the election. Can you imagine this not being said by the Democrats if the roles were reversed? Of course. Of course they would say that.
Starting point is 01:38:18 The entire media would be saying that, that these are all rigged juries. They place them in Washington, D.C. or New York. you can't get a fair trial, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. The New York Times goes on to say, well, no, that's true. Mike Davis, a former Senate aide who runs a Judiciary Advocacy Group called the Article III Project, claimed that Mr. Biden, his allies and his aides were behind Mr. Trump's convictions. Mr. Davis said, Biden is behind the unprecedented indictments of Trump. He responded to questions from the New York Times with an attack on the Times reporting in a post on X.
Starting point is 01:38:58 There were also a swell of misinformation from 30 other YouTube creators in July when Republicans in the House passed the Save Act, which would require voters to provide proof of citizenship. The bill did not become law, but it prompted inaccurate claims on YouTube that the undocumented immigrants voted en masse in 2020 and would do the same this fall. In a Fox news appearance, Senator Ted Cruz, Republican from Texas, said Democrats wanted more than 11 million undocumented immigrants to vote. vote. The Democrat Party has decided that the voter fraud is good for them. Okay, none of this is shocking at all. What's shocking is the correction at the end of the New York Times story. They added this. A YouTube spokesperson said that the company reviewed eight videos identified by the Times. Ready? which was pointed out to the Times by Media Matters,
Starting point is 01:40:04 then the Times took those and gave them to YouTube and said, these are the ones we're talking about. And those videos, according to YouTube, did not violate its community guidelines. So this whole story is nothing. Is nothing. Shocker. They came up with 30.
Starting point is 01:40:30 they said, here are the eight worst. Send these to the Times. The Times then took Media Matters at its word, went to YouTube with all these accusations and threats, and YouTube watched them and said, well, they don't violate any of our guidelines. So what do we do? hilarious.
Starting point is 01:40:50 This is craziness. The failure. Imagine failing this often. What kind of organization can continue to exist with this level of failure? It's really embarrassing. It is. It's really embarrassing. Although they get paid.
Starting point is 01:41:02 I guess it's not really failure. I mean, even if your stories have no impact and you kind of embarrass yourself, if you're getting hundreds of thousands of dollars coming into your bank account, I guess you just go. I guess if that's the way you want to live your life. It just leads to misery. But let's talk to you about the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Sometimes the cost of doing one's duty comes at a very, very high cost. There are heroes in this country and abroad, service members and first responders who have given
Starting point is 01:41:25 up everything up to the paying of the ultimate price to serve. serve you and me. Who's there to serve them and their families? Who's there to help their families when they pay the ultimate price? Tunnel to Towers. This foundation, their Gold Star Fallen First Responder, smart home and homeless veteran program comprise in their in line of duty programs. And they're dedicated to honoring the nation's heroes and their families,
Starting point is 01:41:52 engaging people in 9-11 remembrance all across the country. They host over 80 runs, walks, climbs everything, every year, dozens of golf outings. They run the Tunnel to Towers 9-11 Institute, educating our kids so they'll never forget 9-11. And the truth about it, more than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to Tunnel to Towers goes right directly to the programs. Never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes.
Starting point is 01:42:19 Donate $11 a month to Tunnel to Towers, will you, at T2T.org. That's T-2-T-org. 10 seconds, station on you. Okay, just want to show you the, the, uh, the, uh, double standard here. Yesterday, I was listening to a speech by Kamala Harris. And in it, she said, and believe me, we are going to win. We are going to win. Okay. That's something you hear politicians say all the time. But when Donald Trump says it, that's posturing for trouble. This story is coming from the federalist, powerful leftist dismissed in advance Trump's potential
Starting point is 01:43:10 claims to victory, casting his supporters and election integrity advocates as extremists. Leaders of leftist influence group sought to preemptively discredit potential claims of victory by Donald Trump and portray his supporters as violent in an apparent effort to pave the way for Vice President Kamala Harris to claim victory. There's a lot of investment by the allies of President Trump to suggest that his victory is inevitable, says David Becker, the founder of the Center for Election, Innovation, and Research, which funneled money to Zuckerbucks, by the way. If he loses the election or perceives that he's losing, you can imagine the shock that is going to be felt by his supporters.
Starting point is 01:43:54 And how's that going to be leveraged by grifters who try to anger them, to try to incite them to violence? The webinar, which happened on Wednesday of this week, was appropriately called red, white, and coup. It featured Becker, a bunch of other people. Crazy, crazy people. Panelists cast a potential Trump claim to victory as illegitimate and suggested his supporters and those with election integrity concerns are extremists with potential for violence in what appeared to be an attempt to predetermine the narrative and set the stage for Harris to claim victory and suppress dissent. Now, Democrats and your friends who are Democrats are independents, do you have a right to say, we're going to win? Just like Kamala Harris did. Does Donald Trump have that?
Starting point is 01:44:52 We're going to win. Or is everything you say just a set up for violence? Because if you want it that way, then I guess Kamala Harris was setting up for political violence as well. You know that's ridiculous, okay? It's ridiculous. That's what they do. Every election in my lifetime, the politician has said, but we're going to win.
Starting point is 01:45:15 We're ahead. We're going to win, whether they are or not, every single time. These guys are now suggesting that Donald Trump is setting up, that no matter what happens, it's going to be illegitimate. Well, that's the same thing that the Democrats are saying. Okay, exactly. They're saying we're going to win. They have their attorneys already out saying
Starting point is 01:45:43 we're not going to allow them to steal, which I agree with. Great. Don't let the Republicans steal any vote, not one. And our attorney should be there to make sure that the Democrats don't steal. Not a single vote. I for one am happy about that. Are you?
Starting point is 01:46:02 I don't think the Democrats are at least the ones. one's in charge of things. Michael wrote in about his experience with relief factory.

Starting point is 01:47:10 It's Relieffactor.com. Get Propaganda Wars. How the Global Elite control what you see, think, and feel. It's available now wherever you get your books or at glens, new book.com. You know, what we were just talking about with that New York Times story, Sarah just reminded me because she's reading the book Propaganda Wars or listening to it on. audio. It's really good on audio. You can get it wherever you get your audio books. But she just reminded me that the book outlines exactly how to figure out if that story is legitimate or not. And it starts with what is the original source? Once you know the original
Starting point is 01:48:05 sources media matters, you know it's bull crap. So there's no reason to even deal with it in your life. You don't need to put that stuff in your head. There's so much information out there that's real and important, why would you put a conspiracy theory left or right into your head? And it's getting harder and harder to find the truth. You know, it used to be that, you know, it was pretty close. You know, okay, they just look at it a different way. Now, what's happening in the media, it doesn't reflect reality at all. And how do we come together when people aren't even operating on the same fact? They just don't know what's going on. in their country.
Starting point is 01:48:45 And I think that's by design many times. Christy Kendall, she is a director and producer of a doc that you should see, Undivided, Undivid Us. It's Undivid Us. You can find it at Undividusmovie.com. And she's got a tough job ahead of her. How do we bring us back together? Christy, welcome. Thanks.
Starting point is 01:49:12 It's so nice to be here, Glenn. Thank you. So, Christy, how do we, because I can talk to anybody who disagrees with me anytime. Until you start dealing in verifiable lies, like what's happening today. Donald Trump was not talking about an execution squad for Liz Jan. He was calling her a warmonger. He said, give her a rifle and put her out there and have rifles pointed at her direction and see how she feels. But they're saying that this is a, you know, he's, issuing an execution warrant for anybody who disagrees with them. How do you unite when you can't recognize the truth? Yeah. I mean, it's a great question, right? Because so, like, let's put yourself in a situation, right?
Starting point is 01:49:58 Let's say you're in a room with someone who has a really different take on that, right? Maybe they've listened to one of these other news sources. I think that putting yourself in their position and thinking about, what are they worried about? What do they as a human being? You know, we are all God's children, right? Like, we are all human beings under this, in this big world. And most people, regardless of what label they put on themselves, most people are really good people in this country. Like, I know you believe that. I do. And so it's like, watch that and come out with a really different take. And I think the point of the film isn't to say one side is right and the other side is wrong, is to say, say, how do we as Americans step into our civic spaces with civility and respect and love for one another? Because that's the thing I'm most concerned we've lost. And I think we've actually scared people into not stepping into those civic spaces. And that to me is the most terrifying thing because that is actually like disagreement is what this country was founded on, right? Like,
Starting point is 01:51:09 think about how much like Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson like hated each other's guts, you know? They really did. But they, like, they created this amazing country. And where disagreement should be part of the fabric of our country, not something we are just, like, terrified of. That's okay. So I want to, I want to play just a quick clip from the movie, Undivide Us. Listen. I feel like there is a gay agenda. And I feel like they're pushing it on children, which are the most unsuspecting, vulnerable group of people that we have. I spent a lot of time battling people on the internet about this issue, and this is coming from a gay man.
Starting point is 01:51:53 I just don't see the need for any of that to be taught. Teachers are kind of overstepping their lines. The students are not the teacher's children. They are there to educate them and teach them a curriculum. Carol, what did Drake get right about teachers and what you do? Well, I think I heard you say they have good intentions. So you get that right. I almost totally disagree with you about teachers having their own agenda.
Starting point is 01:52:21 The day is so full with academics, especially in public school. So you're saying that doesn't happen in schools? I don't believe it does. I really don't. You've never seen it happen. I've never seen it happen, correct? I've never read that it's happened. Okay, my blood pressure just went through the roof.
Starting point is 01:52:41 Okay. All right. Let's address that. Okay. All right. So we know that those things are happening. Not in every school, but we know those things are happening. We know the agenda of the teachers' union, et cetera, et cetera. How do you find common ground with that? Actually, this is a great example.
Starting point is 01:53:03 Because if you watch the film, what you'll see is that actually we ended up having Dre and Carol back for like a conversation just with the two of them to talk this through. And they actually came to a lot of agreement around, like, that parents should be informed. Like, the experience that Dre was talking about, which is something, he wasn't in the classroom all the time. He was hearing from his niece, who was relating things to him. And then also hearing a lot of other things going on in terms of the transgender conversation. and he obviously has a lot of stake in this issue. He's a gay black man in Atlanta.
Starting point is 01:53:47 And he was like, why is this going on in schools, right? And his perception was it's going on in every classroom, right? A third grade teacher. She actually, she not only doesn't do any social media at all, like that is just totally not part of her. And it's not part of her classroom, right? So she isn't seamless in her classroom or her school, which you can totally imagine happening, right?
Starting point is 01:54:15 And see that happening at all in school. And he's saying, well, I think it's in every school and everywhere. And so maybe there's some sort of common ground that they can come to in terms of, well, maybe what should happen? Should, should. And that, like, sensible discussion doesn't really happen right now, I think. So I agree with having those discussions as long as everyone is open to the actual facts, because it's not happening in every school.
Starting point is 01:54:45 Um, but it is, it is an agenda that is being, is being pushed at high levels. Um, would you agree with that? I mean, honestly, I don't know enough about it. Okay. What, what, what, what, what I really come down to is like, I believe that I believe that I want to know what's going on with my kid in my kid's school. And I'm interested in having these discussions on a local level. Like, I think that this whole national discussion gets a little. crazy real fast in terms of people saying really extreme things on both.
Starting point is 01:55:22 How do you not have a national conversation when they've nationalized our education system through the Department of Education? Because this way it was designed to go that way originally, and they changed that in the 70s. There is a certain amount that happens on the national level, but I actually think that's actually a little bit of a misnomer, too. I mean, I haven't looked at the research for a while. You know, I did a special when I was back at 2020 on the need for school choice and education.
Starting point is 01:55:53 Like, it was pretty much one of the first hours that was ever done on school choice. By the way, everybody should know. You used to produce for John Stossel. So it's not like you're some left-wing activist. He treats me like I am. Yeah, I know. I'm like, let's just think about these things. No.
Starting point is 01:56:14 I am, I did, I did used to produce for John Stossel. I love John. He's amazing. But when we did this school, when I was really up to date on the education numbers, it was the federal funding for education is pretty small. And the federal control of education, what goes in and the power that they execute with those purse strings is relatively small. It's a state-by-state issue in terms of, like, I think it was like 40-some percent usually comes from the state, and 40-some percent comes from the local, local and then like around 5% for the federal funding. But in terms of like who actually controls what goes on in the classroom, I think most people, their local school boards are the best place to go and have those conversations and then actually affect real change. And localism, less national control. The whole point of the documentary is like, let's take these conversations off of this place
Starting point is 01:57:12 where it's like we have presidential candidates talking about which bathroom you use. Like that is not what I want my president. president thinking about. I want my president thinking about like the big issues. Correct. But I want the local government and I want us to all of Americans be like, if we want to make a change in our community's responsibility to get involved on the local level where we can look at each other as human beings and have these conversations and actually make the difference. Preach that 10th Amendment, sister. Preach on. Oh my gosh. This documentary is an homage.
Starting point is 01:57:49 In the documentary, you expose the outside-in approach that the media and the government used to keep us divided. Yeah. It explains the difference between their goals and the goals of everyday Americans. Can you touch on that just a bit? Yeah, totally. I mean, think about it. Who gets the most power? Who is incentivized by the rage machine, right?
Starting point is 01:58:14 The politicians, right? Then they get a winner's take-all situation. they actually, if they think, if they can make you think that who uses what bathroom is a national issue, like, then they actually get the power to make those decisions and you just feel like you have to shut up and take it. And I just think that I want more Americans to feel empowered by their communities, by the people around them. So these are real messed up right now, and the only people who can change it is us. Yeah. It is one thing that I think the left did very, very well is just go into the local communities because that's where everything happens. And a lot of the conservatives and, you know, small government people just kind of were like, I'm just working. You can't do that. You can't do that. Well, and there is a lot. It's funny, in one, in one of our focus groups, we actually had a really hard time finding conservatives who would even come and participate in.
Starting point is 01:59:19 the focus group because they automatically thought, you know, this is going to be a setup against me. And conservatives are more likely to just like duck in cover, right? I'm going to take care of my own. I'm not going to talk to anybody. I don't want to offend people. And I think that we should, we should, we should enter these spaces with love and respect and curiosity and humility, but we need to enter the spaces. Christy thanks for your hard work on this and I know it's almost thankless at this point to say, hey, let's not continue to divide ourselves, but thank you for doing it.
Starting point is 01:59:56 It's undivideusmovie.com. Christy Kendall, thank you.

Let's look at the election and the results from Stu and his, what do we call this thing again? The Pulsecast, go ahead. That's right. It's so right off the tip of my. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Starting point is 02:02:28 Yeah. All right. The current Pulsecast number up a little bit for Donald Trump from yesterday. 53.06% chance for Donald Trump to win. Kamala Harris, 46.94% chance to win. I think we're kind of at the, we're beyond the point where this data is going to reveal to us a obvious winner. I think we're not going to, there's no amount of polling that's going to come out in the next few days that's going to say, oh, actually, Donald Trump looks like he's going to crush it and win by 10. That's not going to happen.
Starting point is 02:02:56 We are going to go into this with a lot of uncertainty on Tuesday night. So we talked earlier about 538. and Nate Silver coming out and saying, you know, these, these polls are being suppressed, you know, one way or another. They're not putting any outliers out. So they're just keeping it this tight. Is there a chance that maybe one of those outliers would have been correct with either Kamala or Donald Trump? Sure. That this could be an actual blowout.
Starting point is 02:03:26 Yeah, I think everyone's so invested in the fact that this is a relatively close election. and so if you see, if your polling results give an indication that it's not close, you're incentivized if you have bad intentions, I guess, or you're not as, you're not a risk taker even.
Starting point is 02:03:45 Right. You just kind of think, well, let's not put that out there. You know, there's a poll that came, I think it was yesterday, and it had CNN,
Starting point is 02:03:51 it was their poll. And it had every swing state really close, but then had Harris up by like five in Wisconsin or something, something that was kind of, Huh, you wouldn't think that that's the right result. But that's kind of what you want from pollsters every once in a while to show one of those polls that looks a little bit more like an outlier because that means they're not lying. They're not hurting as they call.
Starting point is 02:04:13 Yeah, they're not putting their finger on the scale. Yeah. So I don't know. Is that true? Is she really up by five points in Wisconsin? I tend to doubt it. But still, it's you should release the poll results that you get. On Monday, can we go through all of the ways that Donald Trump can win or lose through the 11th?
Starting point is 02:04:30 Electoral College. Sure. So we're prepared for that. We can do that. And we can do it with the Senate as well if you want on Monday. Yeah. Yeah. And the House.
Starting point is 02:04:39 I would be interested to see the House what the possibilities are that we should watch for. Tuesday is Election Day. The Glenn Beck Program.
