We begin in 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about SimplySafe. SimplySafe is an organization. I started advertising with SimplySafe. I think they had like maybe 10 employees. They're now traded on the New York Stock Exchange. They are an amazing company for security. One of the things I hate is if you don't pay the monthly thing for security, you can't use it.

Not with SimplySafe. Simply safe is month to month. So maybe there's summer where you're away from the house and you want to make sure that your house is fully guarded and you can't afford it the rest of the year. That's okay. Don't worry about it. But the monitoring is extraordinarily affordable.

You can buy Simply Safe. You can install it yourself. Somebody else can install it for you. You know, SimpliSafe will do that for you. but their monitoring is outrageous. They can answer a call within five seconds, see where the intruder is, and even talk live to the intruder.

Hey, dude, nice, you just broke the window. Police are on the way. It's Simply Safe. Get your Simply Safe now. Yep, you get 20% off any new SimpliSafe system. When you sign up for Fast Protect Monitoring, just to visit Simplysafe.com slash Beck. That's simplysafe.com slash Beck.

There's no safe like SimplySafe. So I want to welcome Pat from Pat Gray Unleashed. And of course, Stu, our executive producer, I am still kind of without eyes and can't really read anything. And so the guys are going to kind of walk me through and help me do what I do and do so poorly. But at least you know. know it. You know, you're aware of it. Yes. That's a start.

Right. Thank you. Thank you. I know that. So do you want to explain it all what you're going through? What's going on in your life? Yeah. So I have the weirdest things that happen to me. I don't know. Can I just have a cold occasionally? I have a problem with my eyes and my eyelids to where my muscles are not working and keeping my eyes open. So I have problems with my eyes as it is, and then my eyelids aren't opening. And so the last, I don't know, still what, six months? I've been kind of every time I will read things and it got worse and worse, I would read things on the air and I'd have to push my eyes

open so I could see. So I had surgery. Hopefully it'll work what they did this time. And if not, then they have to go back in and, you know, cut the muscles and all of the horrible stuff. They would not take pictures of the surgery. I wanted pictures of the surgery. I wanted to see face off, but they wouldn't do it. So I get stitches out today. I might be able to see a little bit better tomorrow. We'll see.

We got to see your hemorrhoids. I was really looking forward to see in the eye situation. Well, if you look in a Stu's monitor, there they are. There they are. How do you like that? Oh, wow. Yeah. So. It looks almost like you got your eyes gouged out.

It does, doesn't it? Yeah, it does. It really looks like when we, when we talked on FaceTime last night, it really did because of the lighting that was involved with where you were at the time. Yeah. It really looked like you just had two holes there. Yeah. Where your eyes used to be. Incredible.

You know, we're still doing construction on the ranch and I was on the phone with them yesterday, FaceTime. and one of the contractors was up there and he wanted to talk to me about the price of stuff and I said, go ahead, the window guy just gouged my eyes out. You're next. He had no idea I had surgery. He was a little freaked out.

So this wasn't a retina problem, right? This is a muscle problem with your eyes. The retina is the retina problem stopped. Thank God. Oh, wow. Good. So it's not detached. You don't have a detached retina.

No. Thank you. It's hard to keep track of all the health ailments on the Glenn Beck portfolio. You know, it's really weird is I was always the healthiest guy, right? I mean, yeah. You never took a day off. I never took a day off, ever. And then I hit like 50. And all of a sudden it's like, yeah, you have leprosy.

You got a touch a gangrene, but we think it's only a 24-hour case. I mean, everything just fell apart. Yeah. This is what happens. This is called aging, I suppose. But you're doing it in a spectacular fashion. Thank you. So congratulations on that.

Should we talk about what's going on? Do you want to start? Is there any particular topic you're looking for us to go into here, Glenn? Well, I know this is probably not on anybody's charts, but the seeing the Aurora Borealis is a very big story that nobody has. has been talking about. Everybody's like, oh, look at the sky. It's so pretty. Yeah, sure, but why is it pretty? Why is that happening? This is the first time in 20 years that we have seen the Aurora Borealis as low and as south as possible, or as it was. But we had an event, and I talked about it in our meetings, Stu, last, I think Monday, a week ago, Monday.

and everybody looked at me like I was crazy and I said, there's a huge CME that just happened. There's a huge solar flare that just happened. And luckily it was on the side of the sun, but it was coming our direction, but not directly. It was the biggest solar flare since the Carrington event in, what, 1860 or whatever? Yeah, 1860, I'm sure. The Carrington event you're talking about?

That's 18. Yeah, 1860. How many times if we talk about the Carrington event? Come on. You know what the Carrington event. We're all over the Carrington event. Well, Pat just started a new podcast called Pat and the Carrington event.

Yeah. Wait a minute. I'm just, I'm trying to look. I can barely see through my eyes, but are you wearing, I'm a fan of the Carrington event t-shirt? I am. Yes. Oh, yes. So the Carrington event.

I usually do. I do have it in different colors. Right. But, uh, yeah. Available at Pat's a jerk. dot com. So the Carrington event happened in the 18, I think

60s and we were hit by a massive solar flare. And at the time, the only, you know, we didn't really have electricity or anything, but we had telegraphs. And the telegraph wire all

over the country burned up. I mean, literally started on fire. From the telegraph, all the way through all of the polls, it just burned out. And that is, you know, a significant problem with today's electricity and all of our wires. That could have been a blackout situation, an EMP. We dodged the bullet.

It could have shut down power companies and power lines all over the country, all over Europe as well for at least a year. The problem we have is all of our power transformers it takes them, I think it's a year to build and to replace

giant transformers and we don't have extras. Nobody's thinking about this stuff. And we haven't protected our infrastructure. No. And it would be very inexpensive Yes. Brett Weinstein wrote a great article on this last week about, you know, he was kind of making fun of, you know, how everybody was saying, oh, look at the beautiful sky that's going to happen next week. And he's like, it would take so little to protect our infrastructure and nothing is protected.

We really dodged a bullet. Well, this is a few years ago, but they were talking about not just a solar EMP, but an EMP. but an EMP from, you know, a foreign adversary and how we could protect our infrastructure from it for, it seems like it was only a billion. I think it's under five billion dollars. Yeah, it's dirt cheap in comparison to what we would lose if it actually happened. You know, that they won't do it. It's one of those low probability high, what do they call those? High impact, you know. high impact. This impact, if we were hit by an EMP, and it takes three nuclear weapons,

launched into space, Iran could probably do it when they get their missiles. North Korea. North Korea, all you have to do is put two barges, one on the East Coast and West Coast. You fire two on one. One goes over the middle of America. One goes over the West Coast. Then you have a boat on the East Coast, it takes three missiles detonated at the right altitude above America. You'd shut us down and in the first year, 95% of our population would die. Yeah, because we're back to the cave time. Stone age. Yeah, it's, you don't have refrigeration.

You don't have transportation. And you cannot repair it fast enough because we didn't protect anything. This is one of the craziest things. Congress, you're spending money on so much, a turtle tunnel, spend $5 billion to protect the infrastructure. Doesn't make sense not to. No, it doesn't. It seems like one of the basic things that government is designed to do, right? Yes.

There's a lot of things they're doing that they're not supposed to do. Wouldn't this be something that falls in the category of must do? And how often do they talk about it? infrastructure. We've got crumbling roads and bridges. We've got electronics that could be protected and they're not being protected. Do you know that this solar event could have knocked out all of Elon Musk's satellites? They were afraid of those. And all of our GPS. Do you know what would happen if we'd lost all of our GPS? Be a mess. So the GPS, our magnetic field is so far awry right now. that it is, it's at about a 30, 30 degree switch.

And so it's drifted about 30 degrees. Okay, so it's not up at the pole and the top and the bottom. It's 30 degrees off. And because of that, it's causing all kinds of holes and thinning of our ionosphere. So, you know, all of this stuff can come through. and we have such a problem with it. It's moving so rapidly. We used to have to adjust our GPS.

I think it was every five years. Then it was every two years. And because our poles are shifting, it was then a year. It's now every six months we have to reset our GPS satellites. The poles are moving that rapidly. Incredible. Unbelievable.

All right. Let's take a minute here and talk about relief factor if we could, Glenn. I know you're a big relief factor fan. Yeah, relief factor is something that, you know, it helped me cure one of the other stupid things that I had going on. I had pain in my body and, you know, Pat used to fly with me all the time and it was really bad. And it got worse when I was on a plane and my hands wouldn't work. Nothing would work. I didn't think I would be able to write.

I really, I got to a point to where I said to my wife, it was around Christmas time. And I said, honey, I think this is the last year. I can't, I can't do this anymore. I can't go to work and hide this and everything else. And she said, try relief factor. And I said, that's not going to work. It's all natural. I mean, unless Dow Chemical is involved, it's just not going to work.

And it's all natural. I started taking it, and I was amazed. And I got my life back. try relief factor. One million people, over a million, have tried relief factor. Give it a try yourself. It's Relieffactor.com or call them 1-800 for relief. You can save on your first order now.

It's 1-800, the number four relief. It's Relieffactor.com. Check it out. 10 seconds. Station ID. It is the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Stu joining me today. Yeah, and we're just talking about the entire civilization shutting down here, Glenn. and it does seem to be that we were kind of not really focused on the right things.

We are focused on making sure that skin color is the most important thing in our society again. Thank goodness. Finally having that conversation. Yeah. Can we finally have it? Please. They said forever like, well, why aren't we have a conversation about race? I was, I'm sort of surprised that what they wanted was to convince us that it's the most important thing about all of us.

I kind of thought we were going the opposite direction. Yeah, I thought it was kind of like, hey, racist. not important. We really need to get past this. No. Uh-uh. Very, very strange, strange developments. We are now seeing, it's now North Carolina, the university, Chapel Hill, who is saying, hey, basically, we're not doing this anymore. We're going to redirect all the money we've been spending on DEI initiatives over to security for the campus, which is quite a statement.

And it's changed. Glenn, is it a change? Glenn, is it a change that is like something that is a marker of something larger or is this just I'm trying to figure this out from University of North Carolina Chapel Hill that's extraordinarily left is it not

I mean extraordinarily is I mean there's certainly more left-wing universities than the North Carolina but I mean I don't consider it some it's not Hillsdale the only Hillsdale is Hillsdale. I don't know. Give me more of the story. Why are they putting it towards security? Is it

because of the Palestinian thing? I don't think they're not directly saying that. I mean, look, there's been lots of campus security issues recently. And of course, this is the thing that's been most on everybody's mind has been the Palestinian protest as of late. But I mean, I think, you know, and there's several stories that tie into this. Maybe we can get into them in a little bit, but there does seem to be this sort of reversal of. Oh, you know, if things were fair, I truly believe this. If we could, if we, if we, if we were living in normal times, because I truly believe there's, there's a group of elites that hate people, hate the country, want to flip the entire West. If, if we were living in normal times, and I,

our politicians actually listen to us, this would be over because the country is flipping. They know they're seeing all the results. It's all bad results. They're tired of it. And I really truly believe there is a movement of flipping it. But I don't trust any of these organizations when they go, you know what? Yes, gee, we figured this out. You know what?

You're right. They'll just come back and do it another way. Yeah, it's been a very strange journey on these things because I don't think there's been a real popular transition, to use that term, from sanity to insanity. Like, it feels like this is all coming from the media and from the elite institutions. The American people don't seem to be falling for this. And yet, you know, even in an election year where it's your job to appeal to the most people popular, possible. They continue to go down these roads, even as places like Europe reverse themselves. I don't understand the strategy. I think, Pat, I would love to hear your opinion. I think that what has happened here is, well, a lot of people got into it like, you know, the Me Too movement because they're like, yeah, me too. That's really bad. I want those guys, you know, I want the rapists to pay a price. And then it just got so bad. Now people are saying it because they have to. They're a little afraid.

to say it, or they're just, you know, the leaders of the band. And there's nothing genuine about it anymore. Yeah. I think that we've been Overton windowed to the point where, you know, it's affected their movement now. I think it's a pendulum swinging back the other way. It is. Finally.

And isn't it weird? Remember I said back in 2008 when we talked about the pendulum, I said it'll be about 2020, I think I said at 2023 to 2025, it will be swinging back. It does seem to be. It does seem to be. Now, University of North Carolina's budget is $4.2 billion. Jeez. They've allotted $2.3 million to this particular issue.

But, I mean, if they're redirecting all of their DEI money, I'd say that's a step in the right direction. Well, you know, you can direct all your DEI money somewhere else. When I see those people carrying boxes out of the front of the university, I'll believe it. That's true. I don't think we're going to see people carrying boxes out of the university. No. The boat was unanimous, though. Yeah.

And that's saying something. Something. Yeah. Can we take any positive signs from this? Yeah, I think we can, but I want to see the boxes. And I was reading an article just over the weekend that there are a lot of corporations. supposedly rethinking their DEI strategy. They're starting to get stung by it.

People are pushing back a little bit, and they're realizing that they're wasting a lot of money on this cause when, you know, maybe we can redirect those resources elsewhere. Yeah, it couldn't happen to a nicer group of people. For sure. These people, Nike will never return. Disney will never return. They'll never regain my trust, ever, ever.

Well, it's impossible. They've destroyed the trust of parents all over the country. I mean, yeah, that ship is sailed. You see that 75% of the American people want Disney to return to the way it was without any kind of this crap, 75% and they're still doubling down. And it's because their company is run by the radical employees. That's why they can't go against the employees. Amazing. I don't know about you, but I know Pat and I really love.

beef. We Pat's always Pat's always said just knock the horns off it, slap it on a plate and it'll be good. Good Ranchers has great American meat. It is

it's beef from America. I don't know if you know this, but about 80% of our meat comes from overseas. Why? That's insane. Why are we shipping beef from South America and China. You know, it's a little closer here down the street at the farm. We are just putting our ranchers out of business and good ranchers is keeping them in business. They give you great meat at a great price.

Stormy Daniels case is a bust. In some ways, I mean, you know, it's a New York, it's a New York jury. But I don't know if you saw what, what Bill Maher said over the weekend about, you know, how the prosecutors have blown it at every. I hate you. They've screwed it. They haven't done their job very well. And Michael Cohen took the stand yesterday, right? Yes.

Yeah. And today. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC seemed to take it everything he says as if it's gospel truth. Well, yeah, he was lying before, but now he's not lying. Now he's all true. Now he's telling the truth. Right. Now he's honest Abe.

I saw that. He was splitting rails on the way to the courthouse. Yes. Weird. And returning a penny. Yes. He'd walk five miles to return a penny. I mean, it's really amazing.

You know, Stormy Daniels had no credibility. This guy has no credibility. And I think, you know, Trump's lawyers have done a decent job showing that. But they're still getting bludgeoned. I mean, it's still New York, and they've got all of the media on their side. So I don't know. Who knows how this is going to go? But if he gets past this one unscathed, then I think it's smooth sailing for maybe the next four years.

It will be a while. absolutely amazing. You know, they started with, he's got 9,874 billion charges against him. And he's skating past them all. Yeah. They're just all falling apart. I mean,

they're all at least getting delayed until after the election, which is really the only important thing at this point. I mean, you know, he can worry about his, his, the other stuff later on. And he probably will have to worry about it later on. these, if he lost the election, every single one of these things would just go away. It's probably true. I think if he were not to have, if you decided, you know what, I'm not going to run.

I'm done with this nonsense. I don't think any of these charges even occur. No. Yeah. No. It's so obviously about this particular election. And, you know, they waited so long for most of this stuff to be filed and for them to even go after it because they waited for him to announce he was running.

And once they announced he was running, they scampered as quickly as they could to put this stuff together. And it's all shoddy. It's pathetic. I mean, most of these charges against him were charges that they had previously themselves, in this case, decided not to pursue. You know, they're tying it to other crimes that have not even, he's not even been charged with. And they won't even identify in the middle of the trial. And Michael Cohen is probably the most ridiculous example. of this. And we said this at the very beginning with Michael Cohen. This is back when he was still an

ally of Donald Trump. There is no reason to ever believe anything that comes out of Michael Cohen's mouth. He says whatever he has to at any given moment to benefit himself. Yeah. You know, it's really amazing is at least we're consistent. We didn't believe him when he was saying good things about Donald Trump. We don't believe him when he's saying bad things about Donald Trump. He has no credibility. Yeah. I mean, he has gone on every single side of this. You know, he, of course, at the beginning was saying how wonderful Donald Trump was and how perfect he was and he was and he was the greatest president of all time and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, just, you know, stuff that's typical over-the-top praise. But I think a lot of people missed

this. But once they had their falling out, he turned into like a resistance guy. Like the, and to, with the still the same absurd persona, where he was like, like, you know, this guy who's an umpalumpa, and I'm going to run against him as a Democrat. And like, I'm serious. Like, this guy went completely insane, like beyond Keith Olberman levels of opposition to Trump. And then when this whole buildup came up to this, people in the media rightly noted that that persona of, you know, he's an umpalumpa is not going to work on the stand. So now he's reworked his persona again and is now on the stand with this very calm measured tone of a man just trying to get to the truth. He was very hurt.

He was very hurt and his ego has been bruised and his family and blah, blah, blah. How can anyone believe this? He was just on TikTok like three months ago as a completely different human being. Yeah. You know what? Can we get a cut of those for tomorrow? Let's make a compilation of how insane he went. Yeah, for sure.

We can do that. Yeah, because there's plenty of stuff to choose from. And, you know, CNN's accepting everything as if it came out of the Bible. They're talking about this bomb he dropped in court that Donald Trump didn't care if Melania was upset about his affair with Stormy Daniels. Because he wouldn't be on the market for very long. I don't believe that. Now you buy that, they certainly do. CNN's all over it.

MSNBC's all over it. I've always thought Donald Trump was a guy who was like, hey, baby. And maybe he is. I don't know. But with Melania, I think he really respects her. I really do. I think it bothers him when people don't show her the respect that she deserves. And I think she's no dummy.

She is absolutely no dummy. No, she's not. No, but it's, I mean, look, I hope their relationship thrives. It's got nothing to do with this case. Got nothing to do with it. It's got absolutely nothing to do with what we're supposed to be talking about. Like, their relationship is between them, right? This is a case about business records.

This is a case about business. It has nothing to do with whether Donald Trump, cares about his wife or not. It's got nothing to do with that. That might be important to us or it might be important to them. It's got nothing to do with this case and they just keep pushing it down this road. But that's what, because he has such problems with, you know, suburban women, that's why they're doing this.

It has nothing to do with the actual case of money. I'm guessing the New York jury is going to find him guilty. no matter what it was, but they're making this so salacious because they're hurting him with women. They're trying to make him look into just an absolute pig, so they hurt him even more with women. This is all political. We are living in the former Soviet Union in many ways. When it comes to the media and our court system on Donald Trump, that's exactly what's happening. Do you think, Glenn, there's a snapback effect to this if he is able to somehow get through these charges and not get convicted by a New York jury? How do you mean a snapback?

Like, we've been talking for a long time, at least the media has, about how if he's convicted of a felony, there's a certain percentage of people who will not vote for him. And that shows up in polls. I don't know that you can take it seriously, honestly. I don't think that's how, I don't think people correctly predict their emotion. in a moment like that. But like, take it for what it's worth. That is what everyone's been saying. And, you know, the idea here, obviously,

is to hurt Donald Trump with all these charges, make him look like a felon, make him look like this terrible criminal. If now, you know, after being told, there's 11 billion charges coming his way, if they can't get one conviction before this election, does this snap back against them and turn into a massive positive for Donald Trump electorally?

I don't think so. If they find him not guilty on this, then I think there might be. You know, it's interesting to me, more than a snapback, it's interesting to me you're not hearing, at least I'm not hearing. Maybe they're saying it, but I don't listen to them, so what do I know? I haven't heard a big movement on how he is conned the courts. he's done all kinds of illegal or unethical maneuvers to get things delayed. I haven't heard that. I think people just know this isn't working. This is all a sham and it's not working for them and it'll just be neutral.

It just won't matter. We went through some of the numbers yesterday and it certainly looks like at least in the swing states. This is working in his favor. right now. It seems like he's gaining sympathy. I heard this morning that he, they say he fell asleep during the court and he said he didn't. I think he should have said,

yes, what? There's nothing happening here. I took a nap. I mean, it pushes, I think, against his Sleepy Joe criticism, which is why supposedly he's, you know, he likes the idea that, you know, he's the high energy guy and everything, which we, which we all know. And I think it's true. But I would be bored out of my mind in something. Oh, that's what I mean, though. He is high energy. He's been attentive on all of this

stuff. I think he could have used that as, do you know what's going on? This is, this, there is nothing. I don't have to worry about it. I was a little tired because I was out, you know, campaigning and I was doing this and doing this. And I had nothing else to do. I could have made origami, but I decided just to take a nap. I think that would, I think that would be a smart move right now because Biden's trying to use the falling asleep in court thing against him. Biden is the worst. He's calling him sleepy Don now. Oh, that's so clever. Isn't it? Isn't it? Yeah. Oh my gosh. Yeah, because see, Donald has called him Sleepy Joe, so he's done it back. Oh my goodness. Can you believe it? How creative and clever.

Adjy. Oh, man. Oh, man. All right, back in just a second. Let me tell you about a company that I started, I don't know, 10 years ago. We have done billions of dollars in business all over the country helping people have the right real estate agent to be able to buy or sell their home. I didn't know anything about real estate. I still really don't know much about real estate. I know how to find a good real estate agent, however. I know what the best practices are. I know how to ask. them about advertising, I know that if they don't have a website where it's heavily trafficked, you've got the wrong real estate agent. I know that if they don't have

a Rolodex that has the best people for everything that you could possibly need in buying and selling a home, you have the wrong real estate agent. So I learned this because I worked with the 500 best real estate agents in the country, according to the Wall Street Journal for several years, got to know these guys and ask them, What makes a great real estate agent? So we put together kind of a little survey, and we started the company. We asked anybody who, and I asked on the air, anybody who listens as a real estate agent, and you're good, we'd love to be able to pass your name onto people.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Well, the end of democracy is here. Well, if you vote for a Republican, just want to throw that out there. Of course, that's the way it always works. There's always a cost to voting for Republicans, and this time it's the end of all democracy. Here is Donnie Deutsch from MSNBC. Who's a genius, by the way.

Oh, yeah. He's been an unknown genius. He gets a very special genius. Here is Donny Deutsch on MSNBC. This year, you're not just voting for a Republican. It's a vote for a candidate who doesn't believe and the most basic principles of American democracy. And we could get on the list, but I really don't want to waste my breath on it. Anybody that votes Republican and doesn't understand you are voting for the end of democracy, just pay attention to the Sunday shows this past week.

Well, since we never started democracy, I'm not that concerned about it, frankly. No, I'm not. No, I'm not either. You know, the death of the republic would be bad. That would be bad. Democracy, I say let it go. It doesn't last very long. No. History teaches us that and our founders talked about that. But Donnie, thank you for chiming in. Appreciate it. Yeah. I'd actually like democracy to die. Well, I mean, there are elements of democracy within our report. of course. Well, yeah, of course, the one-man-one-vote part. But then it stops being democracy and goes right into a republic. And, you know, when I say I'd like to see parts of democracy die, what I

really mean is I'd like to see all of the ideas that the people who are pushing for a democracy and not a republic, I'd like to see all that die. Yeah. Yeah, that would be nice. Yeah, it would be nice. I do have some pushback on that though because the democracy that we need is the democracy where you get your opponents thrown off the ballot and you get them thrown in prison. You know, that kind of democracy is the kind I like, or you get all your primary opponents thrown off or you don't give secret service protection to the to one of your main opponents in a family that has had multiple people murdered. And multiple break-ins into his home. And he was home. Yep. RFK Jr.

has had multiple break-ins at his family home. And that's, okay, that's democracy. You want to make sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, you know, this is, this is how you do it. Whenever you can get, if you can get the ballot that people vote with their, the power of democracy to have one name on it with one checkbox as if you're in 1930s, Germany, that's democracy.

That's the type of democracy. I have one of those. And you know what? they started they you know they ended up with just a one person on the ballot uh adolf hitler but um in 1933 i think it was really it was very clever it had a ballot and it said adolf hitler and then it said uh yeah and nine and the ya was a big circle and the nine was a little teeny circle It was like Facebook. You know, just I don't know what they wanted us to choose.

Which one? Which one? They're not trying to influence that democracy at all, were they? No, no, no, no. Of course not. My gosh. Coming up in just a second, Wisconsin, a court has just ruled that Catholic charities, they're not really Catholic.

They're not really charities. you know, feeding people is largely secular. And so they can't really be qualified as a charity anymore. Yeah. So we have that coming up in just a second. Stand by. Here's a phrase you don't want to have to use someday. If I only had a burner launcher.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. If I only had a burner launcher because that means probably something's going on. And you don't want to be in that situation. You probably have been taught that carrying a firearm comes with responsibilities. Of course, that's true. And one of them, if you're going to shoot someone and you've got to shoot to kill, well, what happens if there's a time where maybe that's not the answer?

Maybe stopping the person is, but you don't need to shoot to kill. The situations do exist, and for that, there's the Berna launcher. These are great, great tools for everyday people, and they're fantastic. You're going to love them. The Burna is the best alternative to deadly force.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program, back in the saddle, flying a little blind literally today,

but I have the help of Pat and Stu today. And we've got quite a few really important stories you need to know about. One of them is what's happening up in Wisconsin. The High Court has just ruled that Catholic charities, I don't know. It's not exactly a charity, is it? You won't believe this madness from Wisconsin. We go there in 60 seconds.

First, if you are dealing with high interest debt, you've got to get out of it. And if you think the high interest rates are high now, you just wait until after the election. It's going to become impoverishing for a lot of people. If you have high interest credit cards and you own your own home, there is a way for you to deal with it. You can call American financing. Talk to one of the people. They don't work for the banks. They work for you.

And give them your situation. Maybe they can't help. But last year, and I'd like to get an update on this, last year I think it was $826 every single month. The listeners of the Glenn Beck program that called them, that's what they were saving on average. That's like a $10,000 a year raise. Please call them right now, American Financing.

Yeah, that number 800906 2440, 8009062440, or you can visit them online, Americanfinancing.net. It's Americanfinancing.comnet. NMLS-182334, NMLS Consumer Access.org. APR for Rates in the 5 starts at 6.799% for well-qualified borrowers. Call 800906 2440 for details about credit costs and terms. So I'm joined by Pack Ray and Stu today. In case you don't know, and just joined us, I had eye surgery. in the last, what was it, Thursday. I was hoping to be back yesterday,

but I just can't even open my eyes and I can't really see. But hopefully it'll be a little bit better coming, and everything went well. So I appreciate Pat and Stu filling in for me, and they're still here because I know the stories, but I can't read any of the stories right now. There is one story that I want to talk to you about that is on the front page of Blake,

dot com. By the way, if you haven't read the blaze.com recently, this should be your go-to page every day. It is so good, and we are hiring more and more writers and really deep-thinking opinion makers every day. It is really a great website. Anyway, the story is, the state of Wisconsin has argued that Catholic Charities is not operated primarily for religious purposes, and I'm quoting, because their activities are secular. So what does that mean? That means that when Catholic Charities goes out and they train people to work, the government can do that.

When they feed people, well, the government can do that. When they house people, the government can do that. When they give people clothing, the government can do that. These, these, you know, businesses can do those things. This isn't a charity. Are you kidding me? So they're saying now that their activities are secular because in the secular world, they also happen.

And so Catholic Charities isn't really a charity. You have a problem? You have a problem? I don't have a problem with that. You have a problem with that? No, I don't know. Sounds fine to me. It makes perfect sense, doesn't it? You know what's crazy is?

Wow. Everybody else who is doing it is, and I don't mean this in a bad way, because a lot of things happen like this, and it's a really good thing through capitalism. But you are making money, and you have to make money. There are things that you do in charities that do not make money and shouldn't be motivated by money. Christian compassion is what drives Catholic charities.

Christian compassion. That's a totally different motivation. Have you ever been to the unemployment office? I don't think that's Christian compassion. No? It's like you always say you don't feel charitable on April 15th. You're just out of the mainstream, Glenn, I think. You know, you know, what is so bad is they are beating down.

You know, remember when it started with, how long ago was it? Four years ago where they started telling people, you can't make sandwiches for the poor. Yeah. You can't hand out food. And these charities had been handing out food for like 25 years. There was no problem with it. All of a sudden the city, it was some city in California decided, nope, you can't do that anymore. They are taking away our right, our God-given responsibility to be better people and to help the stranger.

By doing that, we become cold and callous. And I know this from living in New York. Stu, do you remember, you might have been with me when I said it? We lived in New York for probably four years, and the taxes there are. so high. My taxes were over 50%. And the city tax, I think, was what was it, 12% if you lived in the city? Was I the only one that lived in the city? It's something ridiculous. Yeah, I don't remember the exact rate. Yeah, it was like 12% tax just for living in the city. And I remember walking up to our building on Avenue of the Americas. And the city had started to go downhill. And there were papers and garts and

garbage and everything else blowing around. And I walked up to the building and whoever was with me, I said, how much money do I have to give this freaking city for them to keep it clean? And it really pissed me off. And then I just stopped and I went, oh my gosh, in any other city I've ever lived in, if there was a newspaper blowing around, I would have picked it up and put it in the trash can. I would have thought that that was part of my civic responsibility.

But because they don't want you to do anything and they charge you for everything, you just get cold and you just step over things. Yeah. That's a big part of it. I mean, another part of it is if you touch the newspaper, you'll get syphilis. So that is. Well, yeah, I got a little, I got a 24-hour leprosy. Right.

But, yeah. I mean, it is. It does put you in a position. I mean, this is somewhat oddly consistent ideologically with what progressives want, right? Like the fact that they are not active in these situations, they don't want to help people through charity, is consistent with their horrible worldview that government's supposed to do everything. Well, government is God. Government is God.

I mean, God tells us that, you know, when did I see you, Lord? Well, when you fed the sick, when you visited those in prison. when I was thirsty, did you give me drink? All of that stuff, when I was naked, did you clothe me? That's God telling us, not the government, telling us what we're supposed to do. And the whole point of living on the world, at least in my view, is because we're supposed to be better. We are clothed in flesh, so we forget our divine. nature because we have to wield all of the power that we have if you don't believe as a man

thinketh he becomes you're a moron you need to you need to understand all thought is creative you have the power of you know parts of the power of God in you to be creative you think of something and you speak it out loud and you believe it it becomes part of your reality. You build everything. All of this stuff that is around us, the car, the buildings you're looking at, the landscaping, everything

came from somebody's idea. So we're creative. And our job is to not get locked into all of the stuff. Instead, see all the stuff that we can do and then also see that the most important thing we can do

is serve one. another and our government is taking that god-given not right responsibility away from it it is absolutely an antichrist teaching okay i think i've done my job today let's go home well first we should tell you about my pillow but my pillow is a great a great way to get a great night's sleep um mike lindel started making these things years ago and he was just the crazy guy on TV.

It's MyPillow.com. The promo code is Beck. 10 seconds, station ID. You know, I have to tell you, one more thing, and then we can change the subject. One more thing, there's this great article at the blaze by Frank DeVito. And Frank's like, hey, that's a nice, that's a nice ruling you got there. It'd be a shame something to happen to it. But he's talking about this court case in Wisconsin, and he makes a really good point.

If I can barely read it here. There's a mention of Jefferson someplace. Yeah, if I can give you that here, it says, for decades, American legal and political culture has shifted in its understanding toward erecting a wall of separation between church and state. a statement found nowhere in the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution, but rather in a letter by Thomas Jefferson. Since the 1940s, the courts have made a concerted effort to turn the practice of religion into nothing more than a matter of private belief and worship. Pray in your room and maybe in your church, but keep it out of the public square.

The regime wants religion to be no more than that. Now, that is important. What's the next paragraph still? American Public Life needs to reclaim the proper place of religion. Living one's faith in the public square is central to the meaning of religious exercise. Amen. This is something that we must never give in on, ever. And they're doing it bit by bit, taking our right to help people, our right to be good Christians, our right to serve others.

They're trying to take that all into the government. we must never allow. This is probably the most important thing in our religious fight and our religious freedom. I don't care if you go to church and you pray in church, because I know a lot of people that go to church and it does nothing for them. Church is a building. Our faith is what we're supposed to bolster when we go to a church on Sunday. We're supposed to live our faith the rest of the week and then kind of go back to the hospital on Sundays and be patched up.

We cannot give away our exercise of our religion, and we exercise it in everything that we do. We exercise it in our belief. We exercise it when we stand up and say, no, that is wrong. And here's why it's wrong. and I'm going to quote the Bible. Here's, here's, I have a right to read that Bible in, in my, in my, not just my house, but have it on my desk, have it on my desk at work, have it on my desk at school. It's a book.

Why are you so afraid of that book? And not to make points, but to do it. If you were going in and trying to feed somebody and they say, no, you can't do that. who's in the wrong here? Yeah, I mean, and that's, you know, the Catholic Charities specifically, their own description of what they do is to operationalize Catholic principles, right? This is their faith. They're going to try to make it into something other than just, you know, words.

Isn't that the point that we should all be doing? Catholic Charities is doing it as an organization. But that's our job as individuals as well to take and institutionalize in our own. life what we're doing it's one thing to say it it's one thing to say it in church it's another Pat is one of the best examples of a Christ like figure I know Pat will never tell you all the service he does ever but Pat serves like crazy and and is serving people all the time and never says anything about it because it's just who he is it's part of his religion it's part of his faith

It's what makes him Christ-like. That's what we're supposed to be doing. I have a lower opinion of Pat myself, but I, you know, I think it's a good, you know, principle you're discussing here. I wouldn't necessarily apply it to Pat, though. Well, I will, I will tell you this. You could apply it to me because I allow you to continue to work. That's a fair point. That's a fair point.

That is a fair point. Are you concerned about it? Because, you know, I was looking at it. the coverage on Israel right now. And we're told by the administration. They're the most pro-Israel administration ever, which is the exact opposite of what they are. They are the least, they are the most anti-Israel. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I miss that.

This administration is pulling itself. Yeah, this clip one. We have it here. This is Jake Sullivan. No president has stood stronger with Israel than Joe Biden. Oh, my gosh. I mean, could it... Is that incredible? Oh, my gosh. I think there have been mullahs in Iran that have been better. That's very true.

Let me give you this. This is October 7th at the day of the attack. This is Biden's words on October 7th. Jim Garrity points this out. Tell me he has not broken every word of this pledge. This is the words of Joe Biden. In this moment of tragedy, I want to say to them and to the world and to terrorists everywhere that the United States stands with Israel.

We will not ever fail to have their back. No. Wow. They're very broken that. We will make sure they have the help their citizens need and can continue to defend themselves. Nope. Nope.

No. My administration's support for Israel's security is rock solid and unwavering. No. Nope. And let there be no mistake. The United States stands with the state of Israel just as we have from the moment the United States became the first nation to recognize Israel 11 minutes after its founding 75 years ago.

Have we stood with Israel this entire time? No. No. We're doing the exact opposite. In fact, we're doing the opposite to make this point about how these campus protesters are basically on the money with their Hamas support, while we still have hostages that are American, that the IDF is in there trying to actually free. How many days? How many days is it been? It is not on the screen today, so I don't know off the top of my head.

It is. It's been a lot. There is. 221. 200. Do you remember, Pat, you're old enough to remember Nightline. Yeah. Oh, where they did the Iranian hostage countdown every night.

Nightline was not a TV. I don't even know if people remember Nightline now, but Nightline with Ted Koppel, it started because of the Iranian hostage crisis. And it was after the 11 o'clock news at night. And all they covered for over a year was the hostage crisis and how the hostages were doing and what the government was doing to get him out.

And the whole thing. We're not even talking about these people. And I hate to say this, but I pray to God. I pray to God if there's any of the women. I know this sounds horrible, but I hope they're dead. I hope they're dead. 200 plus days and these people are still in the hands of these monsters? And we do nothing.

We don't even talk about it. We're the only show. I know in America that has a countdown and you know when we're like should we take that off because nobody cares no we're not taking that off we have hostages there and no one is paying attention yeah it's despicable the the administration doesn't mention them uh I I never hear the journalists ask about them nope nope so weird it's amazing it's so weird and these are Americans yeah we you know I get that like, I mean, I would care if it wasn't just Americans, obviously, but the fact that it is, you know, it's in an election year, you think this would be focused. Oh, yeah, yeah. There are so many things that show us that we are no longer the United States of America that we grew up in, and this is one of them. You don't treat Americans this way. You don't, you don't take Americans hostage. Or, you know, as Toby Keith said, we put a boot up your ass. And we don't anymore.

We don't. I mean, I was a little surprised that we didn't send in Navy SEALs or Delta Force or somebody ourselves to get them out. And you can't tell me that we can't do that. You can't tell me that we can't do that. I would in some ways disagree with that, Glenn. The hostage attempt to free them is coming from the Israelis. They are trying to do it. And we're trying to stop them.

that it's like it's it's much worse than just not caring we're intentionally in the way of them being freed it's incredible that this is not a bigger story I tell you I wouldn't be surprised if a Tindale uh movement is going on with those sacks of grain you know Tindale he printed pages of the Bible and snuck them into England and bags of grain I wouldn't be surprised if this government was sending cash

inside those bags of food that we're dropping off to the Palestinians. Glenn Beck. Well, it's kind of an appropriate commercial here, as I can not see, blinds.com. You know, you want it really dark?

Sorry, I got it from my mom. It makes me practically all chick. But I was having this conversation with one of the blinds experts, and I said, no, I don't think that's the right fabric for this. I want it to be. And she said, no, no, no, I understand what you want.

This is much better. And it's also cheaper. And I said, well, send me a sample, will you? Send me a sample of both. We got both. She was absolutely right. These guys are great.

Check out my show, Pat Gray unleashed every weekday right before this one live, 7 to 9 Eastern or anytime anywhere you get your podcast. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program back in the saddle.

I appreciate Pat and Stu who are with me today. I've had eye surgery. And honestly, Pat, I mean, Stu won't even look at me because he's a sissy girl. Yeah. But I mean, it's like a horror show. It looks like my eyes have been gouged out. Gouched out. It is horrible looking. And I thank everybody for your point.

prayers. I'm just having something done so my eyes will open. The muscles aren't worried. It just doesn't matter. But hopefully this will take. Otherwise, I have another surgery. But so far, everything is going well. I just, I can't really see anything yet. So Pat and Stewart are helping me out. Don't they, uh, the staples or the sutures come out today, right? Yes. That is happening. Yes. Yes. And so you should know later on today, whether or not that's going to work a little bit better for you, right? Uh, hopefully I'll be open my eyes a little bit, you know, because they're kind of, they're not sewn shut, but between the sutures and the, uh, the amazing, uh, inflammation. Wow.

Uh, it's not a good look. It's not a good look. It looks painful. Yeah, this is, you know, what's really crazy is, Tanya says, I don't know, you look a little better. Um, so anyway, um, uh, so, uh, I'm leaving early today because I have to, have the sutures taken out, but I'll be back tomorrow and hopefully, you know, we won't have to put Pat out because he's done two shows now today already. This is his second show. And I was listening to your show this morning, Pat.

And you had amazing audio of a woman in North Carolina and talking to the school board. And I have to tell you, our government and our local governments are so far out of control. Oh, man. There has to be a reckoning on this. An election. I mean, people go to vote locally and you're like, I don't know. Their name sounds good. We have to stop that.

Yeah. We have to know who we're voting for. Listen to this woman. Can you set it up? Yeah, this is from a TV report about this woman's son who wrote about an illegal alien in class and was suspended from school for it. Okay, wait, wait, wait, writing about it in a derogatory way or writing a paper about it? Writing a paper about it.

Yeah. And so it's mostly explained in the report. Check this out. Y'all remember me telling you the story about Christian, the 16-year-old student at Central Davidson High School in Lexington, North Carolina. He was suspended for three days for using the term illegal alien with a green card as an English assignment for vocabulary because it was suspended. was considered racism. Well, I thought you'd like to hear what happened when his mother addressed the school board. On April 9th, my son received a write-up stating that he violated a Board of Education policy by using or making a racially motivated comment saying that an alien needs a green card.

board there is nothing inappropriate about saying aliens need green cards and there certainly isn't a case for racism due to the fact that alien is not a race per the board's policies found on your website this board has control and authority over all public schools in davidson county including central high this board's policies do not prevent students from using the word alien illegal alien green card, nor does it state that these words are racially insensitive or abusive. I cannot appeal this suspension since it is less than 10 days. Racism is only a three-day suspension with no appeal when it should be a top-tier punishment. After no resolution, I emailed Alan Beck and Nicholas Jarvis asking for help. No relations.

These emails remain unanswered to this day four weeks later. However, two board members did choose to send messages to county leaders and residents with my personal arrest record from 14 years ago and encouraged them to post this on social media. These posts were sent around my child's school. Two members of this board, too busy to hear a mother's cry, yet not too busy to assault her character and one more attempt to hurt her child. 14 years ago, I was arrested for possession of pain medication, sentenced to six years, served for, then released early, successfully reintegrating into society. I was since appointed by a Superior Court judge in Brunswick County, North Carolina, to serve on an advisory board for their commissioners.

I held that seat for years until I moved to Davidson County. I am nationally accredited with the Incompass Program of America and have spoken publicly over 30 times in many states regarding addiction. However, Chairman Beck and Ashley Carroll chose not to include that in the text that they shared. Through your reckless attempt to slander my name, you have successfully re-traumatized my family. Your weak attempt to assault my character has failed, but your malicious character has been highlighted. It is my opinion that two members on this board are highly corrupt. I request corrective action be taken to remove you both in order to protect all children and families of this county.

Thank you for letting me share. Wow. So, Stu, I would like you to reach out to Ricky and have Ricky reach out to the mom. I want to follow this story. I want to know what corrective action. Look at what they've done. They've not only just made alien into some sort of slam illegal. You're here illegally.

Words matter. They've made alien into a race. That's not true. They gave him a 10, what was it, a 10 day suspension? Three day suspension. Three day suspension. Yeah. So you can't appeal any suspension.

suspension less than 10 days. Okay. So they gave him a three-day suspension for doing something in English that is absolutely accurate. Then instead of doing something about it, or at least listening to her responding, two people went into, I don't know, how did they know her arrest record? Was that well-known? Or is this something that they had to search for? How did they find out this arrest record? And in America, once you are a, if you're a criminal and you've served your time, then you've served your time. Now, that doesn't mean that you don't look at that record. But if you look at somebody who is in jail who turned their life around and became an asset to help people not get addicted to drugs and it's court appointed, that's a whole different story. And they smear her for that.

It's unbelievable. These people should go to jail. By the way, doesn't four years seem like a pretty stiff sentence for possession of pain meds? If she was, if she was buying pain meds off the street and she had a large amount of them, I could see that. Yeah, I mean, if you're not enough to be a dealer, that would seem like an appropriate sentence. The government is doing everything they can to shut down pain medication. Yeah, I know. Everything.

Yeah. Everything. You know you have a bad back. Yep. It is, it's difficult to obtain it. I can't remember what the stat is off the top of my head. I was kind of searching for it, but it's in one of your early books, Glenn. I think it's an inconvenient book.

And the average actual jail time spent for a, for a pedophile is like two and a half years. Yeah. I remember that. So, I mean, if that's, and I can't remember the exact number, but it's, it was in, impossibly low for what the offense is. But you're getting four years for that? I mean, that seems a little nuts. And that is because our whole justice system has become whatever the hot topic is. Right now, drugs are a hot topic, you know, painkiller, hot topic, blah, blah, blah,

fentanyl hot topic. So they'll come down on you. But pedophile, not really a hot topic. Quite the opposite. They're trying to massage that into something that's not so bad. Let's not use a massage. You're the one of used hot topic, weirdo. But also, you know, not to lose sight of the point of this is that using the term illegal alien in an English report is reason for suspension in school when those words aren't even singled out in their handbook as being problematic. I have to tell you, I will be. I will be so happy and we will be on the right track

and I just don't know how this is going to happen but then again I didn't think in my lifetime Roe versus Wade would be overturned so yeah but you know right now there's there's another story on the blaze with a line if you haven't used the blaze you should use the blaze a line is kind of a magazine

and a vertical if you will of how we take or values and align them in our lives. And there was a story about how mechanics are needed. And I've tried to convince my son, go take two years and learn how to service machines and become a mechanic. You don't have to do that for life, but have that skill.

And because I won't send my kids to college. It's just, I just can't do it. I won't do it. My daughter wants to be an actress. I'm not paying for school. I'm not going to send her. If she wants to do it, that's fine, but I will not pay for my daughter to be destroyed. And I'm anxious to see how long it takes before that really starts to show up in numbers. You know, I know there's anecdotally there's people that are saying, you know, that the numbers are coming down and people are not doing it, blah, blah, blah, blah. But I want to see real numbers when that starts to come down but the biggest thing that has to happen is these almost swore damn teachers unions need to be destroyed they need to be destroyed they are nothing you know when in 2008s do you remember this when the california teachers Union suddenly passed and repealed a law that had been in their bylaws since like 1972.

And it said, if you've ever been a part of a group that tried to overthrow the United States of America or were in a violent communist movement, you were not allowed to be a teacher in California. And in 2008, as soon as Barack Obama is in, they changed that. And I looked at Stu and I said, what the hell is that? Why? Why would you do that? They have put all of the radicals from everywhere it seems in the world have all come

and gone into these teachers' unions. And our teachers, God bless them, most of them are not radicals. Many now are because they're all being taught. It's all coming from the same place. The universities are so radical. They're teaching our teachers to be radical, and they are teaching our children. It's got to stop, and it's all these teachers unions.

They've got to be fired. It's scrap it. It's the worst. It is probably the most important thing we could do is to close down the Department of Education and defame. these teachers unions. I talked to Corey DeAngelis yesterday, who's guys been working on the school choice movement across the country. And he mentioned that in Texas, there's 13 Republicans

that came up and voted against the school choice bill in Texas. And they got 10 of the 13 to either be completely removed or pushed into a runoff in one election cycle. And I think the, I think thanks to people like Randy Weingarten, people are aware of that. this and do want, I mean, our biggest ally in the fight against the teachers unions is the head of the teachers union. You know, give me the name, Stu. Let's get the names of those people that are in a runoff. Because I want to make sure people know who they are and their opponent because this has got to stop, especially in states like, you know, Utah, no reason for Utah to be left ever. No reason for Idaho to be left. No reason for Idaho to be left. No reason for

Texas to be left or any of these states. But what happens is Democrats disguise themselves as Republicans and then the really wishy-washy John Cornyn kind of worthless Republicans also run and people just vote Republican. It's got to stop. It's got to stop. All right. Let's take a break and talk to you about Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile is one of my favorites. You know, I don't even carry a cell phone. I have a cell phone because I wanted to be a client of Patriot Mobile. Because when I found out about them, you know, I knew they were a great service. I knew they would save people money. I knew they were on the same cell towers as everybody else. So you get exactly the same coverage. But you get better customer service. It's all here in America. But when I met Glenn Story and the

team at Patriot Mobile, and I really understood why they created Patriot Mobile, and I really understood why they created Patriot Mobile and what they do with their money and their time, which is fight for moms just like you just heard. In Texas, I know because I'm around it, they were responsible for a lot of the big overturns of the school boards. And they want to do this all over the country, but they need people to subscribe and become a member of Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile, they will give you great service. You will save money.

Mypatriotsupply.com. So yesterday, Donald Trump apparently fell asleep at his hearings, which I think is fantastic. You know, he said he wasn't asleep. but I think he should have said, yeah, there was nothing going on. I took a nap. But now Joe Biden is calling him Sleepy Joe, or I mean Sleepy Dawn, which is so very clever. Oh, my gosh, how did he ever come up with that?

But he's also on the campaign trail, and he's in trouble down in Florida. In Tampa, Florida, he was at a pro-abortion rally. and the people were screaming, you know, it's not enough. We need more than 15 weeks. You know, we need 320 trimesters before you can tell us not to abort our babies. And he said that, you know, Ronda Santis was extreme and we have to do better. And the speaker said in America today in 2024, women have fewer rights than their mothers. Yeah, especially when it comes to sports.

and their grandmothers because of Donald Trump. Millions of women in Florida now face pain and cruelty. Millions of women in Florida now face pain and cruelty? Really? And then he added, it's not inevitable. We can stop it when you vote. And then he made the sign of the cross, which is kind of weird when you're talking about killing baby Jesus.

I mean, it would have been convenient, I guess, for Mary to abort the baby. And her husband could have said, hey, I don't know. Yeah, right, like that happened. I don't know who that. Well, you're not having that baby. You're not shame in this family. And she could have had an abortion.

And things might have been different if that would have happened. Yeah, they might have. They might have. But that's between, you know, her and her doctor. Right. And her doctor. Yeah. And, of course, before her doctor, you know, cuts her open.

kills the baby or just, you know, inserts knives into the mom's womb and just chops the baby up. It's really, I feel good that he makes the sign of the cross. You know what I mean? Just. So, so evil. It's so evil. It is evil. Unadulterated evil. So many problems with this statement. It wasn't millions of women in Florida. Millions of women in Florida now face pain and cruelty. Yeah. Now, of course, there was a, this is a high number, but about a million abortions occurred in the entire United States last year, which is... How many in Florida?

Millions, right? Right. So not millions. We know that for sure. Not to mention, even their six-week ban still allows about 40% of abortions to go forward. So about 40% happened before six weeks. So really, I don't know. Again, not that you'd expect Joe Biden have any idea what he's talking about, but he has no idea what he's talking about.

On every issue. Wow, that is deep analysis to what I think is appropriate. really appropriate. That's great. I mean, that's all the deeper you need to go, right? With Joe Biden, because he's just so butt stupid and so terrible. Can I ask you, do you think anybody actually believes anybody, even his supporters, if they were honest, do they actually believe he's making the policies of the United States of America?

I think most people think it's Barack Obama. And if not Barack himself, Susan Rice, through Barack Obama. But even not saying who is doing it, do they actually think he's walking into the room and saying, guys, here's today's agenda. Here's what we're going to do. Well, that's what they try to tell us. Anyone believes that? They try to tell us how sharp he is, how brilliant he is, how penetrating he is. I know, but I don't say penetrating with him.

what I'm asking, ooh, your hair smells delicious. What I'm asking is, do you think the average Democrat, forget who's running it, actually believes he's setting the agenda? Yeah, I think Democrats believe it. They do?

I think so. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, is it fair to just exonerate him from the responsibility of this, though? I think he deserves every bit of the blame for what's going on. I'm not saying that. What my question is driving at is because I don't think he's he's not running the agenda.

He's not. He's not capable of it. So I'm not saying that, you know, give him a pass. I'm saying, how can someone vote for the president when he's not the president? He's not making the decisions and you don't know who is. Well, here's a really good indication of who might be making the decisions. Cut 16, where Joe Biden talks about it. My name's Joe Biden. I work for Kamala Harris.

So there you go. He works for Kamala Harris. I asked her to be my vice president. I knew I needed somebody smarter than me. Wow. Wow, that's saying something. Yeah, isn't it? And shockingly, this approach and this incredible energy and focus from our president has not leading him to good polling results so far. We mentioned this yesterday, Glennwood, you didn't get a chance to react to it. Six swing states. Polling came in. Joe Biden only leading in one of them, 47 to 45 over Trump in Wisconsin. So a two-point lead,

obviously within the margin of error. Also in the margin of error, Pennsylvania, except Trump leads that one by three, 47 to 44. Still, it's got to be over five to seven points. Well, you'll be happy to hear Arizona and Michigan or seven point leads for Donald Trump, 49, 42, Georgia, 4939 for Trump. Wow. And then Nevada, 50 to 38 for Trump. Up by 12. Wow. In Nevada.

I think it's fair to being skeptical that Donald Trump is going to win Nevada by 12 points. That would be... That's going to be more like 15 or 20. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay. And there you go. So I was talking to a guy who follows the CIA and...

I'm not going to give you all the credentials. But he's a guy who knows and knows things. And he's not currently involved with anything in the government. But he knows the color revolutions. And if you don't know what the color revolution is, just look at the Arab Spring. We were the ones responsible for the Arab Spring. We got together with Facebook, told them to keep things. open. We organized people on the ground and we found a way to get with with social media

and whip people into a frenzy. We found ways to overturn governments, but it is important in a color revolution that you have somebody at the top that you can declare as a dictator of fascist a monster. Okay. And we were talking about the election and I said, because I believe we are everything the State Department did in the Arab Spring, they did in Ukraine, they did it again in South America, and I believe it's being set up here, and it has been for a long time,

because they have all of the pieces you need for a color revolution, except the guy at the top being a dictator. And we were talking about it, and I said, what do you think is going to happen in the election? He said, I actually think Donald Trump's going to win. And I said, oh my gosh, that makes me feel better.

And he said, well, let me tell you why. He said, because for a color revolution to work, the left has to have somebody that they say, this guy's evil. We have to overturn all of it. So he said, it will lead to more violence. But I think we all know that. Don't we? I think we all know that if Donald Trump wins, the left will set this country on fire.

Yeah. I mean, strongly suspect that's going to happen. Yeah. Right. So it's one of those, you know, win-wins again for the left. If Joe Biden wins, great. You have Kamala Harris. Can you imagine Kamala Harris being the president of the United States? and that will happen if he wins. And if Donald Trump wins, I think the left, it's going to be lawsuits at best. They'll do everything they claimed that the right was doing and that it was so wrong by claiming it was a fake election, and it will just set the streets on fire.

We really have to be on our knees praying all the time. Please, Lord, protect the Republic. I have a painting that I did. It's hanging in my office. And it just says, save the Republic. I think that should be what everybody is praying for. Save the Republic, Lord. Save the Republic.

It seems like the heat just keeps getting turned up as well. And I don't know. I mean, I think you see it all over the place. It's hard to imagine the outcome. Maybe you could describe it, Glenn. What's the outcome that leads to some peaceful resolution of all of this, right? Like it feels like there are extremists on both sides, frankly,

that are constantly threatening some, either some sort of violence or seems so on edge about everything that if they lose, God only knows how they react. Can I say something that I think, you know, this is just thinking out loud, so don't take this as something I've really thought deeply about. But thinking out loud, I don't like this long term

because this individual is not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination. But I think if Donald Trump picked Tulsi Gabbard as vice president, it might diffuse things in trouble because she could reach out to the left, not to the left, to the regular Democrat

and say, guys, I'm a Democrat. I don't agree with the same policies. But Donald Trump selected me to try to pull us back together. And I'm appealing. And she might be able to appeal to the common Democrat and hold it together. Maybe. Maybe. What do you think of my theory that if he chooses Doug Bergam, people will be so bored that the entire nation will just fall asleep? What about that? I have to tell you, Pat, I'm actually hoping that Doug is the one because I've invested in the Doug Bergam used to be called Groucho Marx glasses. Yeah. I think I can make a lot of money. I think I think a lot of money on that.

So it doesn't really matter about policy. You're just looking to cash in. Yeah, well, I mean, it's the capitalist way. Well, that makes sense. Yeah, I think it makes a lot of sense. Do you buy the Bergamentum, Glenn? Are you a Bergamania guy? You think this is going to be the pick?

Is that a serious question? A lot of people, he is the literal favorite. It's a four to one favorite tied with Tim Scott. He and Tim Scott are four to one favorites for the vice presidential bill. No way. First of all, Donald Trump always, he likes the surprise. Yeah. You know, he, you know, he likes, remember last time there was favorites and then they would

fall away and there'd be another favorite and they'd follow away and there'd be another favorite. He likes, he likes that drama. He's a showman. He's a showman. You know, the real pick that I would want is somebody that is truly a constitutional stalwart, somebody who is just steeped in the constitution and not. not a Republican or a Democrat, but is an American constitutionalist.

That's who I would love to see. And who is that person to you? I mean, Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, neither one of them are even possible, really. Yeah, and they wouldn't help him on the campaign trail. But that's what I would love to have. Yeah. Because Donald Trump only has four years. Whoever he picks is going to be the move.

of the party. That's why I worry about Tulsi Gabbard. But I think the Tulsi Gabbard move in the short run in the next four years, I think it might be really, really important because that we need something to pull us back together. And look, people can change. But you know, Tulsi Gabbard again endorsed Bernie Sanders in 2016 against Donald Trump. I know. But here's the thing. She loves America. There is no doubt in my mind that she loves America. And I know she's, you know, socialist and everything else, but that goes back. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hang on just a second. That goes back to the kind of argument that we used to have.

You know, how big are social programs, how big is a spending, how big is this, that we have if you love America, if you love the basis of what we are. And I do believe she believes that. Yeah. I mean, you want to put her in some role. It's one thing. It's another thing to put a Bernie Sanders campaign head in the vice presidential slot when your president is in his late 70s and has the same affinity for McDonald's that I do. I know.

That's not a good thing. That is never a move that I would ever recommend ever at any time. And again, this is off the top of my head. Yeah, yeah. But I would never recommend that at any time except for, now, we all know massive trouble is coming after this election. And if you

don't think so, you're not paying attention. You're living in a dream world. Take a quick break and talk to you about Burna. The Burna launcher is the best. I got one for my wife on Christmas. Mother's Day, if you missed it,

get your mom a Burna launcher. This is something that if, you know, I carry a gun. But the problem with a gun is, When I pull it, I know you shoot to kill. And there are times that you don't want to kill somebody. And the burner launcher is less than lethal, but it incapacitates. The first one, I load mine, so it is, the first one is a kinetic round.

It hurts. But it's not going to stop you, but it will let you know, I've got something coming your way. The next one, for me, the round is tear gas. I only have to be accurate enough to get within five feet of him and that guy's going down for 45 minutes. It's real tear gas. It's not pepper spray. They also have pepper spray as well.

But whatever you need to do when you want to incapacitate somebody, especially if you're driving around in some of our cities coming soon to a city near you, roll down your window a little bit if they're surrounding your car and just pop a couple of tear gas pellets out. and they'll leave your car alone.

I want to thank Pat and Stu. for filling in for me in the last couple of days. And hopefully I won't have to have Stu or Pat come in again tomorrow, but I'm going to be leaving the show here in just a couple of minutes. I've got to go get some stitches out and see how things go with my eyes. But thank you guys so much for filling in for me. And thanks for power and through Glenn. I mean, this is quite a, quite an ask to have you be doing the show without being able to see.

Yeah, it's kind of fun. Yeah. Is that what you, that's what you would call it? You know what I've decided? I don't want to be blind. Wow. That's a good decision. Not a cool thing. Not a cool thing.

If you are blind, you probably know it. But it's better to be able to see, I think. Yeah. Huh. So it's one of the top five or six senses. Is it one of the top five or six? Yeah. It's in there somewhere.

You'll find it. It's necessary. Is there a sense that you would be kind of okay losing? I mean, if you had to lose one, taste. It's probably, I guess. it's probably taste. That's a hard one though, too. I think I'd like to just to soon keep them all.

Really? But if I had to lose one, it would be taste, because taste leads to fatness. Now, you know what it would be for me is the seeing dead people one? That one is like, I don't need that. So the sixth sense? I just get rid of it completely. I don't see what the benefit is at all. You know what?

You're such a coward. You won't even look at me on Skype. It's true. Because it looks like my eyes have been dug out of my face. Right. And so. Accurate. Six cents, you'd be like, I see this people.

You know, over the weekend, there were some nice commencement messages to college kids across the country. Kansas City kicker, Harrison Butker, actually had an interesting commencement speech to Benedictine College, which a little bit surprising. I'm surprised you kind of went out on a limb here and criticized Joe Biden a bit. Here's what Harrison Butker had, Kansas City Chief's kicker, had to say. Bad policies and poor leadership have negatively impacted. major life issues. Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as a growing support

for degenerate cultural values and media all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder. Our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his Catholic faith, but at the same time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally. He has been so vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that I'm sure to many people, it appears that you can be both Catholic and pro-choice. He is not alone. From the man behind the COVID lockdowns to the people pushing dangerous gender ideologies

onto the youth of America, they all have a glaring thing in common. They are Catholic. This is an important reminder that being Catholic alone doesn't cut it. These are the sorts of things we are told in polite society to not bring up. You know, the difficult and unpleasant things. But if we are going to be able to be able to be able to be able to bring up, you know, the difficult and unpleasant things. But if we are going to be men and women for this time in history, we need to stop pretending that the Church of Nice is a winning proposition.

We must always speak and act in charity, but never mistake charity for cowardice. It is safe to say that over the past few years, I have gained quite the reputation for speaking my mind. I never envisioned myself nor wanted to have this sort of a platform, but God has given it to me, so I have no other choice but to embrace it and preach more hard truths about accepting your lane and staying in it. The world around us says that we should keep our beliefs to ourselves whenever they go against the tyranny of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We fear speaking truth because now, unfortunately, truth is in the minority. Wow. Yeah. Jeez. Wow. Yeah, not hiding

it there. No. No. And you might think, well, Benedictine College, probably a Catholic university, right? But that doesn't necessarily mean that you're in a safe space anymore. Yeah. I mean, at Notre Dame, I don't think that would, that would have been received well. Oh, God, no. I would not have been received well at all. I don't think so. By at least many who were going there. Yeah.

I think, you know, even if you're in, though, a safe space, if you're at a college that you really think is going to agree with those views, and it seemed like the crowd was not having a big problem with them, you know, you know it's going to go viral. You know it's going to be out there. You know, it's a big risk for somebody in his position. I mean, and look, he's one of the best kickers in the NFL if he's not the best right now. I mean, he's very much responsible for taking a Super Bowl away from my Philadelphia Eagles. So it is, he's a guy that has a, certainly as much as an NFL kicker can have, a high profile.

And to say these things in in today's world is courageous. It really is. You know, I mean, we all talk about speaking. our mind and and we do this all the time. We talk about you have to be able to speak up and speak your mind, you know, and speak your mind. But we are at some level, Pat, incentivized to do so, right? Like our shows, you know, Studas America, Pat Gray unleashed, the Glennbeck program, they all fail if we don't speak our mind.

Our careers go away if we don't say the things that we actually believe. That is a totally different incentive structure than everyone else in the world. Conservative media is the only place it exists. And if you want to talk about a privilege, that is ours, right? Like, it's not white privilege. It's not male privilege. It is the privilege that we work at a place like the Blaze that incentivizes and encourages us to say the things we actually believe. Everywhere else in our society is aligned to make the opposite occur.

And, you know, for someone like Harrison Bucker to step up and do that, I mean, he'll get heat for that. Oh, yeah. Yeah, he absolutely will. And people will try to cancel him. People try to take his career away from him, no doubt. Hopefully he's in an environment with the chiefs where he can go ahead and save his things. Probably about the safest place he could be with Andy Reid as his head coach and having all the power. I think he's probably in a good spot there.

Probably. But still, there's a huge risk. It's a huge risk. And these are basic things. Hey, you know, we think kids should be alive. I mean, this shouldn't be a challenging thought. No, it shouldn't. But neither should supporting Israel.

or, you know, being okay with Jewish people. Those should be pretty obvious. Pretty safe stances and they don't seem to be right now. I mean, we've got a president who won't even give the number of hostages in the Gaza Strip, the hostages that Hamas has taken. We can't even talk about them. And here was Joe Biden yesterday, well, security advisor. Jake Sullivan on the hostages, hostages still being held by Hamas.

I cannot give you a clear number of how many are still alive because we do not have total fidelity on that, unfortunately. And it's something that you watch every single day. We know there are deceased hostages and we know there are living hostages. And we know that with each passing day, the risk to those hostages also goes up, which only redoubles our commitment to try to get to a ceasefire and hostage deal as rapidly as possible. But unfortunately, I'm not in a position to give you fidelity on those numbers because nobody entirely has it. We have our analysis, our assessments, some of that is driven by intelligence, so I have to be cautious in sharing them. But I had to look you in the eye and say, we know exactly how many are alive.

Nobody can do that for you. I mean, look, he sucks, though I will give him a little bit of a break on that. They don't know. Right. I mean, part of this is because they haven't done much to try to actually find out. That's the problem. And the people who are trying to do something, which is the Israelis, you keep cutting off from having the munitions they need. Exactly.

So, I mean, you know, to give them a break, yeah, a lot of them might just be dead. You know how another reason we know this? All of them might be. Yeah, they might all be dead. Another reason we know this is Israeli said, hey, guys, in Hamas, we'll do a ceasefire for, you know, a number of weeks if you give back the hostages. And then the, and then Hamas, quote, unquote, agreed to that with just a couple of modifications, which was, hey, you know, some of those hostages might just be remains.

So that's different, Pat. What we were requesting, of course, would be something when you have the hostages coming back alive. Now, the remains, I guess, are better than nothing. I'd like to have that if they are again. But this is what happens when you don't take care of it immediately, right? I mean, are you telling me that the United States of America, the most powerful nation in the history of the planet,

we couldn't have gone in right away and taken care of this situation? with special forces? I mean, it's not what our special forces do. It's what Navy SEALs do. It's what Delta Force does. They, I mean, we've got the CIA, we've got intelligence, we've got armed forces and intelligence that's supposed to be the best in the world. And we didn't go in there and deal with this at the very beginning. Yeah. For our own people. And it's not just conservatives who wanted this to happen. It's not just the families of the victims that wanted this to happen. I I guarantee you. You know, who else wanted it to happen?

The Navy Seals. Yeah. The special forces. Delta Force. Delta Force. These people want to go in and get these hostages out. And they're prevented. And 21 days have passed.

You know, because now, yeah, now we've completely lost track of them. We have no idea. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure it is incredibly difficult. You know, it would be easy for Hamas to do it. Hamas could just return them. You know, the people that were always, we're so sympathetic to their, cause these days.

You know, everyone, oh, well, we should have a ceasefire. Does anyone bother to ask them if they want one? You know, it doesn't seem like Hamas wants much of a ceasefire. In fact, they could get one if they just gave back the hostages. And yet even that is not interesting to them. They could get one if they stopped firing rockets at Israelis. I mean, even at Americans. They're firing rockets at the pier we're building to feed them.

Right. And we're the bad guys. It's abhorrent that this is going on. And this administration, I asked, I think we talked about this a little bit yesterday, I can't remember it was on or off the air, Pat. But I mean, it's been what, 70-something years that Israel has existed? Has there ever been a more anti-Israel president than Joe Biden? We have the clip from Ms. Sullivan talking about this.

He says that no president has stood stronger with Israel than Biden. Biden. And we have that clip. It's clip one. No president has stood stronger with Israel than Joe Biden. Now, this is laughable in every sense. We went over his statement after October 7th. He's broken every single piece of it. He has opposed

their efforts to even defend themselves. And I mean, I look back at all the presidents. We've had a criticism of all of them when it comes to Israel, even some Republican presidents that have taken steps we didn't appreciate in the past. There's never

been a president who has done more to undermine Israel since its formation than Joe Biden. I think that's accurate. Meanwhile, he's just out trying to pander to, well, in this particular case, native Hawaiian students and Pacific Islanders, the NHPI students. NHPI. NHPI. Because this is not AAPI. No.

That's something different, even though it's kind of the same. NHPI, but he can't get it out. Okay. It matters now nearly 40% of NAAH-N-H-N-H-N-H-P-I students rely on Pell Grants to get to college. The N-H-N-H-N-H-I-P-I-P-H. I mean, in his defense, they may have added more letters in the moments since we knew what the acronym was. Because that is how our society seems to operate these days. Play that one more time.

It matters now nearly 40% of NAAH-N-H-N-H-N-H-P-I students relying on Pell Grants to get to college. Give me one more time. Why I'm trying to get this one down? Okay, yeah, get it down. It matters now nearly 40% of N-A-H-N-H-N-H-P-I students rely on Pell-Grants to get to college. I have N-A-H-N-H-P-I students?

Yes. I don't know what that is, Pat. I don't either. I don't. I frankly, I don't either. I don't think anybody does. But it's written right there in front of his stupid face in the telepropter. And he still, for whatever reason, cannot get it.

Is the font not big enough? I mean, I understand he's 81 years old. And his sight is probably not as good as it once was. But I know they've adjusted the font size to about, I don't know, three feet tall for each letter. And because we've seen the font size when a camera has caught sight of it before. So it's not for lack of trying. I don't know what you do for this guy. He can't get it right.

He can't do numbers and he can't do letters. That's a problem. I feel like you want to get at least one of those two. It would be nice. You know? Yeah, it would be nice. Triple-8-27-B-B-E-C-K. More coming up in a minute.

Have you ever taken a handful of your dog's kibble food and just smelled it? It smells terrible. I can't stand the smell of dog food. Ugh. It's the worst. This is what we call dead food.

727. This is the Glenn Beck program. Pat and Stu for Glenn today. We touched on this earlier in the show, but this is incomprehensible to me. RFK Jr. is still being denied secret, service protection. Incredible. During a presidential campaign where he is running for president of the United States,

he is the only candidate in the history of America who has requested secret service protection who has not received it. And I don't know if people. That's amazing, first of all. And he's also a guy, you know, he's hitting double digits in some of these polls. So he's like a factor. Yikes in the, yes, 14%. Yeah, he's had some of those.

16%. I don't think he's going to get that. You might get eight or nine. Maybe. Maybe. But, you know, his last name might ring a bell as someone who, I don't know, could be in danger. Targeted in some way. Uh-huh.

He's had people show up at his house. He's had break-ins at his home. He's been approached by armed people when he was on the campaign trail. you might recognize his uncle and his father as people who were shot dead by assassins. I don't know. It's incredible. Is it possible that he could use secret service protection? Unbelievable that nobody's putting any pressure on Joe Biden for denying him secret service protection.

This is democracy, Pat. This is how democracy works. You will essentially allow your. opponents to either be put in danger or put in prison. Right? Like that's how democracy, this is what democracy looks like. Wow. Apparently to the left.

It's incredible. Again, I don't like RFK Jr. I do not think he would be a good president. I think his policies would be a disaster for this country. Many of them, some of them are good, are fine. But many of them would be catastrophic. That being said, he deserves Secret Service protection. He's a factor in this race.

He's, you know, like I can understand. understand there has to be... He's high profile. I mean, I don't even know if this is a true statement what I'm about to say, but I can understand there's a line. If a person who's got, you know, 14 people in the country that are going to vote for him probably doesn't need secret service protection. So if they ask for it, maybe saying no to some, you know, candidate that's not really impactful. Maybe that makes sense. But like, RFK Jr., like everything... I mean, you could argue he needs more protection than some of these other candidates. If it's like Pat

Paulson in you know, 1977 maybe you don't give him Secret Service protection. I don't know because like four people are going to vote for it. Right. But nobody knows him. He shows up and they're like, who's this guy? The Glenn Beck

Program.
