The Glenn Beck Program - Trump Official Teases BIG Bust-Up of Meat Mafia | Guest: Sec. Brooke Rollins | 8/31/26

Episode Date: August 31, 2026

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins joins to discuss what President Trump is doing to boost beef production, including his announcement that farmers can process their own beef to help lower costs while ensuring the quality of the meat stays the same. Glenn breaks down how cutting regulations to let farmers process their own beef will help take down the big four meat-packing monopoly and allow family operations to grow. Glenn exposes the Left’s hypocrisy for being offended at Lake Ontario’s name change, as Glenn lists off everything that the Left changed due to politics, from sports teams to band names to everyday language. Glenn tells the tragic story of a heroic mom from Minnesota who died saving her daughter’s life from a fire. Glenn compares this mother to the tragic stories of Lindsay Clancy and Audrey Stone, two mothers who took their children’s lives. President Trump announced last Friday that the U.S. has reached a deal with Venezuela that Trump described as "the biggest oil deal in history." Glenn breaks down what the deal actually does and how it sets America up for success. Cities around the country are ending their contracts with Flock cameras, but Glenn warns that the surveillance state won’t go away as long as the Patriot Act remains law.  Learn more about your ad choices.

If you listen to the press, if you listen to the, the, you know, meat packing association, what you're about to hear is the end of all safe meat. What you're about to hear is the president wants to poison everyone with poison beef. None of that is true. None of this about inspections is true. They're not going to have any inspections on me. None of that is true. You're being played. Secretary Brooke Rollins is with us.

She is the U.S. Agricultural Secretary. On Friday, the president made the announcement. I'm going to be authorizing legal documents to be drawn in order to allow farmers and ranchers to give the right to process their own food. This should move quickly. She responded, we're on it, Mr. President. Big announcement starting on Monday. This is the big announcement. You're hearing it from the secretary herself in one.

One minute. Stand by first. Ever notice how your car runs better when you keep up with the maintenance? You don't wait for the engine to siege before changing the oil. You give it, you know, what it needs, so you can do what it was built to do.

Build a simple daily routine that supports the systems carrying you throughout your life. And relief factor is that routine. It was developed by doctors, and it's a supplement designed to support your body's response for inflammation. It's targeted support that fits between your morning coffee and the rest of your day. And you take it consistently and watch for the results.

Secretary, welcome to the program. We're glad you're here. Glenn Beck, it's so good to be on with you. Really great to have you on Team Agriculture, by the way. Who knew? This is incredible. Yeah, I know. It's been kind of a wild thing to have this

conversation with the president last week and have him connect with it and call you and say, let's get this done and I can't wait to hear what it is and also I think it's important to say what it isn't because the disinformation, the cartel that is against this is relentless with their lies. Well, that's right. First of all, a couple quick top points. Really great to be on. I've been such a fan of yours for a really long time. Thank you. Very, very special to me. Number two, this president has been, and I believe will arguably go down in history as the most pro-rancher, pro-farmor president in American history, at least in our lifetimes. Number three, that what has happened over the last just decades, frankly, Glenn, it's not, you know, a lot of bad things happened under Biden,

a lot of bad things happened under Obama, but this is decades of massive consolidation in agriculture, offshoring of our food supply in agriculture, the loss of hundreds of thousands of farms and ranches. There is no national security. There is no freedom unless we can feed and fuel ourselves. And that's why this is, frankly, an existential question. And then the final kind of top point I'll make is that you're 100% right, that the president, you know, after talking to you, which I loved, got very interested. We've talked about it at length over the last year and a half.

But really, your conversation, I think, brought it to the four. And because he had made some comments and some decisions on a short, temporary importation of beef, all of America was kind of watching on what we're doing with ranchers and beef. And so he said, Glenn, you're right. Brooke, you're right. I want to deconsolate. Let's get back to the way it was 20, 30, 40 years ago where people could use more of a regional processor, a locally owned processor.

And the fact that two of the big four are owned by foreign entities, This is astonishing. Now, does it mean there's no more inspection? Of course not. America has the best food inspection system in the world. I mean, you know it's true when we had a lettuce issue. That was, of course, FDA had blueberries recently, but I think we're so used to our food just automatically being safe. And that's because of the thousands of food safety inspectors we have in this country and around the world. And that will continue unabased. That's a really important point in all. So it's not about the inspections of the food. It has always been about the way things work, the way the law is written. If I want to sell my beef across state lines, I have to have an inspector that is USDA. Most likely, if I'm living in a state like I sell my cattle in Idaho, I got to go to Denver to sell my cows. I can't get them processed really in my state because I don't process.

enough meat, so I don't have the small person. I can't, the people can't go and process their beef in our state and then sell them to the local grocery store, which, you know, I don't understand the people on the left. They're for these big, huge conglobulates. And then on top of it, they understand farmed table. How do they not understand that same concept with beef and chicken? How do they not get that? It's, it's right. And a couple of things on that. And by the way, we are, we have a whole series of announcements all week. One of the five we're announcing today is on that exact question. Interestingly enough, several states participate in a program. Only 11 states, by the way, not your state, but about 11 states. Georgia just got added in the last few weeks.

New Mexico's close. Those states, they actually can sell across state lines because the states have entered into agreements with USDA. So we are doubling down on that. hopefully talk to your governor. If I haven't already, I'll be talking to him or others this week to get these other states on board. But we have inspectors in every single state. We just have to enter into agreements immediately that will allow, for example, your beef to sell across state lines. But that's just one of about a hundred things where, you know, we've been doing, we're going to be doing to make this easier for our ranchers and to provide a better market for them. And you also, are you making it easier for people to build? I mean, right now,

Now, what is it, 85 or almost 90% of all beef is processed through these big four. It was not like that 20 years ago. It's never been like this. This is a massive monopoly. Can you make it easier? Are you going to make it easier for people to be able to build processing plants in their own states and get state inspections? Yes.

So I think this is a really key component of all of this. And by the way, we're talking big four processors, Packers, today. But this is true in fertilizer. This is true in seed. This is true in almost every level and layer in agriculture. And what's really another conversation for another time, Glenn, but just to put this into context, our farmers continue to struggle year over year, right?

The federal government injects money just for their survival. But meanwhile, all of these big ag companies, a lot of them foreign-owned, continue to have. have a stronger and stronger bottom line. So the minute we announce, you know, a new injection of funds, a bridge payment, you know, a damage payment, whatever it is, the price of the trucks go up, right? The price of the tractors go up. The price of seed goes up. I mean, this is what happens when you don't have a fully functioning market. So obviously today we're talking about that non-fully functioning market in a loser. A massive,

massive issue. So to answer your question on the big four, yes, what we have done over the last year is really invested in small and mid-sized packing so that a co-op, a group of farmer owned, we've got some great examples of this, by the way, around the country that are building this out with the help of USDA grants and loans, and we'll be announcing a big, you know, more, a bigger pot for that today. And there is an opportunity here. I'm sure you're tracking that a few weeks ago Tyson announced the closure of three of their plants. They're shifting a lot of their processing. Some other plants, one of them in Texas and other places. But that opens up, Glenn, about 20 percent of the market for smaller and mid-sized companies to come in,

American-owned, to rebuild and to catch some of that market that is now opening up. So as tough as that decision was, that announcement was, I actually think the long-term implications are very positive for this for this industry so if people understood how beef was you know purchased and i'm not going to explain it here because it's just not worth it but on this grid system with no transparency i mean it is honestly like if you were selling your house and these big four companies were buying all the houses and they bought two houses and then said we're going to base all of the prices on those two houses that we just bought you'd be like well wait that's not a free market what do you talk what are you talking that's the grid system. That's how they buy beef. It's absolutely anti-free market.

Is there going to be transparency on that? Yes. And on when they're closing their kill floors, because that's another thing. I can send my beef to be auctioned, and then they can say, you know what? We had to close our kill floor, so we don't really need it, so we're going to pay a lower price. And you never know. Yeah, good. Good luck to you guys. Yes, so this is a major part.

I'm on my way to Nebraska, actually, as we speak in the car, and really giving a state of the cattle union, if you will, those are my words, a state of the union on the cattle industry, on the rancher industry, on what's happened to our ranchers, how we rebuild the herd. We're at a 75-year low after an all-out war against cattle by the left over the last 20 years. What we need to do to do that, and of course, transparency is probably one of the key components of all of that. Senator Ricketts and Senator Fisher will both be there, the governor of Nebraska. Nebraska, of course, the number one beef state. And while, you know, there's a lot of things we need

to do, we need to incentivize young ranchers. We need to keep private property rights, you know, absolute in this country. We need to open up grazing in the West. We need to move some of the overuse crop land to grazing land. We need to bring the cost of fertilizer down. Ranchers use fertilizer as well. We need to break up the big four, bring more competition in. But to your, you're point, transparency in what these ranchers are getting paid, what they're having to pay, that has been lost in the current system. And while the ranchers are, you know, making a pretty good per head pay right now, pay out right now, that's very unusual, right? For decades, they were at the bottom of the pile and now they're just starting to catch up again, which is really important.

So transparency is very, very important. So can one, yeah, we'll be making. more announcements on that. One more time because this, I don't know, cattle ranchers association or something that does not sound like any cattle rancher I have ever encountered, have come out and said, again, this is

all about dangerous meat. Do you know anything about these people that are leading this campaign? And just one more time, can you just set the record straight on what this means for food safety?

Well, yes, and again, I appreciate it. There are, we have just at USDA, I think close to 10,000 inspectors. Nothing is compromised on inspection. The food especially are, I mean, listen, America, you're part of this, grows the best, highest quality, most impressive, most in-demand beef in the world, in the world. And that is why you see with Make America Healthy again, our big movement there, You know, one of the announcements today is going to be changing the way the government procures its food and its beef, military, hospital, school lunches, which is under me at USDA, Bureau of Prisons, that putting the American rancher and the beef directly from American ranches into the government system, you know, we're making a lot of changes right now.

But none of that is possible unless Americans have full confidence in the safety of what they're eating. And you can't do that without inspectors. And so, you know, you can have some scare tactics from some, you know, a little shady or smoke and mirrors front groups. You've not been in the conservative movement long enough to understand how that works, right? But at the end of the day, this is the most impressive, most robust food inspection safety system in the world. And none of that will be compromised. How long before this all goes into effect and how long? long before the people at the supermarket feel these changes or impact?

Well, you know, as you know, Glenn, this is a very complicated supply chain. When we were dealing with the cost of eggs, right, a year and a half ago, you hatch a chicken within three or four months that chicken's laying an egg and we're off to the races. And so you've seen, right, the cost of eggs come down 30, 40, 50 percent. Listen, a rancher retains a heifer. that heifer takes two years to get to the point where she can even, you know, birth a calf. That calf then takes another two years before he can even get to the slaughterhouse and become part of the food supply chain.

So it is a long, long process. Having said that, we've already begun to see signs of improvement for the first time in 10 years. Our heifer retention rate was up, meaning ranchers were keeping more of their heifers. And the remarks I'm giving today, the announcement I'm giving today will be with the president later this week to talk even more announcements for our ranchers and for our agriculture supply system, how important it is. So I believe we'll begin to see some of these, well, not I believe, I know some of the announcements we're making today will be immediate. Others will take a little bit longer to implement, but the challenge that we're trying to solve is that for so long, agriculture and the decisions

that were made for better or worse were for the immediate. And listen, we need short-term changes. The consumer, you know, was hurting. we also have to have a long-term plan. And if we don't, we will continue to see the erosion of one of the greatest stories in American history, the foundation of our country, which is agriculture and our farmers and ranchers, and we have to reverse the trend we've seen. Are we going to be able to get Congress to act on this? So when the president leaves, somebody doesn't come in and just reverse this. Well, that's right. That's one of the most important things I think people don't realize is the president will be signing an executive order or two on this later this week. The announcements I'm

making today are outside of those EOs, so we're just doing a lot. But if we don't codify this, if Congress doesn't pass it, then the left who believe that cattle caused climate change with their burping and other gas, that they'll begin the war on cattle again. So part of the announcement today is going to be calling on Congress to continue. The farm bill that the House passed that the Senate didn't get done has a lot of good changes in there. There's a lot of really good policy out in some of the bills. And I'm going to fight. I'm making that a priority for next year to really work with Congress to codify a lot of these major unprecedented changes that we're announcing this week. Brooke, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank the president for this.

I just think it's a good, really good news. A long time coming. But thank you. Well, that's right. And again, I can't thank you enough. It is a, it is an all of all of the above effort and your knowledge and your willingness to champion agriculture in rural America is going to make a huge difference. So I look forward to more of these conversations going forward and just grateful for you. Thanks a lot. Secretary Brooke Rollins, the Agriculture Secretary announcing part of the things that she said, it is going to be rolling out all week. This is very good news. I can't tell you how long I have heard ranchers talk about this and it's finally happening. I'm going to explain it a little bit more here in a second in a way that it will make sense to you because it is important for you to understand this.

If we're going to get it past Congress, you have to know most kids are like, where does your meat come from? Supermarket. They don't even know it comes from a cow. We have to know how this system works if we're going to actually change anything. First, our sponsor. Paid for by Super Sure Insurance Agency LLC, a licensed insurance agency. You know, I think entrepreneurship is the most American form of optimism. You'll look at an empty building, an ID on a piece of paper, maybe a bank account that nearly isn't as big as you'd like. And you say, I can build something here.

I can do something. That's an act of faith. And this country was built by people who do exactly that, the shopkeeper, the farmer, the inventor, the guy who started with one truck and eventually had 20. They built something that didn't exist before. They created jobs that didn't exist before. They serve people that may never have met otherwise. Something that you've worked so hard to build deserves to be protected. That's where Super Sure comes in.

they're not going to have any meat safety. What good with that do? Oh, yeah, there was a massive account with 7.2 million followers on Instagram that said that you and Trump are trying to make sure that ranch or sell meat without federal inspection while three outbreaks are still active. The engagement on this is insane.

So the disinformation is coming to you from all angles. And the question is why? because there's millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars at stake. And as she said, let's not forget the green lobby. Let's not forget what the socialists would like to do to our farming. Let's not forget what the people who are buying up all of our farmland want to do to farmers and ranchers. I mean, this is big, huge business. I want to look into, Ricky, if you can assign this to somebody, tell me who the National Cattlemen's Beef Association.

is because that sounds like the biggest bull crap I've ever heard because they should know these things and they should be championing this and for some reason they're not and it seems like a bogus cattleman it sounds to me it's almost like oh is this bill gates organization is that is that is that his is he the cattleman behind this more in a minute let me tell you about cozy earth really good hotel bed has one fair advantage over your bed at home.

I want to go on this one more time because we're getting hands.

and the president's getting hammered by people who are absolutely lying to you when they say he wants to get rid of or I want to get rid of all regulations on meat. That is insane. That's insane. And you have to recognize that. People need to understand this is farm to table. This is support your local farmers. This is buy locally. Think globally act locally. It's all the things the left wants. all the things that the left says they hate, the giant corporations taking everything over, that is what this is fighting for and fighting against. I don't know who is responsible for this onslaught online to convince people that this is dangerous, but let me explain, because we've been here before, and I want you to understand, I am a rancher the way some men are cowboys, mostly hat, not much.

cattle, okay? I write the checks. So I'm not holding myself out as an expert. I know I talk to ranchers. I don't know all of the ins and outs. I know enough to know there's a deep problem here. And when you're writing the checks, you learn the oldest line in farming and agriculture. Everybody tells it as a joke, but it's not a joke. The surest way to become a rancher worth a million dollars is to start with two million dollars. Okay, I live in a town of farmers and ranchers. And they taught me more in a few years than I've taught anybody in the last 30. And what they've been telling me quietly over and over at the feed store without a lobbyist anywhere in sight is this. Four companies buy about 85% of all of the steers and the heifers

in the United States. Those companies, Tyson, Cargill, JBS, and National Beef. Two of them are foreign-owned. In 1977, the big processors handed about 12% of American cattle. There were roughly 2,600 livestock slaughter plants in the country. We've done this before without any kind of problems. 15 years later, there was less than 1,400. And the plants didn't get better. They got bigger.

And then there weren't so many of them. Now, here's the number that nobody puts on television. tells you, every American dollar on America that Americans spend on food, the share that makes it back to the man who grew it, has gone from 35 cents in 1970 to 14 cents. Meanwhile, inflation has gone way up. Fourteen cents. Fourteen cents on every dollar. That's the guy who carried the drought, the vet bill, the diesel, the interest, the 18 months of feed, every ounce of the weather risk, he gets 14 cents. Now, some of this has been to court. Tyson and Cargill agreed this spring to pay $87.5 million to settle claims that they fix beef prices. JBS paid $83.5 million to settle with

the ranchers. Now, all of them are denying they're doing anything wrong, and no court has found that they did do anything wrong. But I'm telling you the way it's still legal, and it still can be legal, but it can still be wrong. The Justice Department has a criminal antitrust investigation running right now. The acting attorney general says that they've been through more than 3 million documents, no charges yet. So the president posted on Friday that there was essentially four of them,

which is not a competitive number, and everybody knows that. and he intends to break it up. Now, he wasn't inventing a grievance. He was reading the room of about 9,000 small towns. So I brought him this Wednesday, and I want to be clear, this isn't my idea. This is Thomas Massey. This is Republicans and Democrats that have been carrying this bill for years. Now, this isn't exactly the same thing,

but mostly it belongs to the men who have been saying at the sale barn, since before I owned a fence post that this is not right the way it's working. And within about 90 seconds of the announcement, the response arrived, how your beef is now going to kill you. So let's talk about what's actually on the table here. A rancher takes his animal to a small plant, close to home, licensed and inspected by his own state. 29 states run their own inspection programs. Federal law already requires those programs to meet the standards to at least the equal to the federal standards. Same standard.

The meat still can't cross the state line in many of those states because of a line on the map. That doesn't make sense. The version that passed the house puts a label on every package. Who processed it? Who owned the animal? Where was it raised? What day was it slaughtered? And a plain notice that it wasn't federally inspected.

So it's on the label. That's more information that you have ever had about a single pound of beef in your life. Go look. Go look at what's in your freezer right now. Do you have that? It says a plant number. That's it. So the middleman isn't being eliminated.

The butcher is still there. The inspection is still there. The label is louder than it's ever been. The only thing that changes, is the fact a middleman doesn't have to be one of four companies. Now, who do you suppose wrote the rules that made it for? We've been here before. Let me take you to 1906, and I got to tell you,

Socialists, you should kiss my feet for this. A young socialist named Upton Sinclair spent seven weeks undercover in the Chicago Stockyards and writes a novel called The Jungle. He wrote it about the workers. He wanted Americans to be outraged about men falling into rendering vats. Instead, America read the chapters about the meat and stopped eating sausage. He said later that he'd aimed the public's heart and hit it in the stomach.

Europe banned American meat, sales collapse, Congress moved fast, and the big Chicago Packers, the one Sinclair had exposed, went to Washington and testified in favor of the bill. Their man told the House Agriculture Committee that they were in favor of the extension of inspection, in favor, enthusiastically in favor. Now, why would you volunteer to be regulated? Because the federal inspector standing in your plant is a fixed cost. Armour and Swift could swallow it across a million head a year. The butcher in Iowa, killing 40, head could not. And because of that, the federal stamp reopened Europe. The government now would certify your product worldwide for free. That same year in Chicago, the Packers founded a trade

association to help them live inside the new law. It still exists. It's called the Meat Institute. It's a group that issued a statement this last week warning that letting this meat reach consumers is the wrong approach. Read their own history page. they'll tell you what the association spent in its early years fighting for, keeping the cost of meat inspection off the meat industry and on the taxpayer. They asked for these rules. They asked to pay for them. And then those rules quietly did with the rules were shaped to do.

Now, Sinclair understood exactly what happened. Socialists, I want you to listen to this. Upton Sinclair, the guy who got meat regulations, said the federal inspection of meat was established at the Packers' request for the Packers' benefit. The great muckraker of the age spent the rest of his life explaining that he had accidentally handed the meat packers a gift. Now, let me tell you the other side, because it is true. The Meat Institute says beef costs what it costs because the national herd is the smallest it has been in 75 years. and that a bigger herd, not a different plant is the answer.

That's a serious argument, and it's true. Large plants genuinely do process cheaper per animal. USDA's own economists say so. A small plant carries the same refrigeration, sanitation, labor costs across a hundredth of the volume. Your local butcher may not be able to beat Walmart ever. And the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, which sounds like BS, A rancher's group, not a packers group, has real worries about the administration's beef policy.

When your own side raises a hand, you listen. So here's my answer. Nobody is asking you to buy it. We're asking it to be allowed to exist with its name on it. So you can look at the meat and go, oh, this is one of those shady small market butchers. I don't trust in that, and you don't buy it. If a local plant can't compete, it'll close. And the market will have told us something true.

But right now, the market is not allowed to speak. And I have to ask the people I usually disagree with, think globally, act locally. Know your farmer, know your food. Small is beautiful. Buy local. Farm to table. Stop the big corporations. We agree.

Vegetables, cheese, honey. bread, eggs, wine, I'm with you on milk. The closer home, the better. The smaller, the better. The more you know a man's name, the better. But then when the same crowd hits beef, suddenly the only trustworthy food in America is the kind that comes out of a Brazilian-owned plant, the size of a regional airport. Since when have you started to trust the multinational over the neighbor? Now, I don't think most of you do. I think you heard a name and attached to it and you reach for the switch. But I'd ask you to look at the thing instead of the name.

Because that's how it's done to all of us. Rules get written by the biggest players in the room, sold to you as safety and paid for by everybody else. And in the end, it isn't ideology. It's a man in a town like mine deciding whether he can hand the place to his kids or has to sell it to somebody who has never met cattle. We are losing our ranchers and our farmers. You must free them, not from safety regulations, but from the regulations that have been built to keep these four monstrosities growing and growing and growing. They're at 85% of all beef right now.

They're about to hit 90. This cannot continue. We know this is what the free market is all about. And if you're for those big JBS Tyson foods, you're not for them with chicken. Why are you suddenly for the slaughterhouses for beef? Why are you for that? I don't understand. Local, local, local.

The more we can bring things closer, let people, these small little, these small little yards where you bring your cows in, I can't get my cows in, because I think in Idaho there's maybe one or two places I can go. Otherwise, I sell all my beef in Denver, and it goes to one of the big slaughterhouses because I can't, I only sell 50 a year. I can't get it done locally because there's not enough.

But I'd love to be able to sell it to my neighbor. I'd love to be able to sell it to you, but I can't. I got to sell it to one of the big four. This is not politics. This is survival for the rancher, the farmer, and national survival for us. More in a minute. American financing.

Credit card interest is rent, you pay on, money that you already spent. Think about that. Dinner's gone, the gas is gone, whatever you bought three months ago, you know, maybe sitting in a closet somewhere, but the interest, oh, it's still there. Month after month, it just keeps showing up, charging, you know, for the privilege of having spent the money in the past. And when you're carrying high interest credit card debt, that can eat an enormous hole in your monthly budget. If you're a homeowner, American financing may be able to help you use the equity in your home to consolidate that high interest debt into your mortgage. That can mean lower monthly obligations, more breathing

room in your budget. In fact, American financing borrowers save an average of $800 a month. You can't go back and unspend yesterday's money, but you can get, you can stop paying for it at least so much every single month. There are zero upfront fees. You might even be able to delay up to two mortgage payments, so lock in a lower rate before September, do it now. 800, 906, 2440, 800906 2440. It's American financing.net.

America bills. You're on the right end of that sentence. Glenn Beck. Back in a flash. It feels like every conversation about weight loss eventually turns to

injections these days. I mean, you've probably heard about all of that by now. There are a lot of commercials pretty much running around the clock. These results can be dramatic. But for a lot of people, you know, giving themselves a shot every week is suboptimal, you know, along with the potential side effects. It's not something that's really appealing to a lot of people. It's one thing, of course, people do want to lose weight. But, you know, I really want to go that far. You really want to use that. Do you want to stick a needle in yourself to make that happen? Some people love that. Some people are real needle fiends, but most aren't, I would say. So the real question comes to you when he say, like, well, if I want to keep losing weight, if I want to start losing weight,

if I want to maintain weight loss, would I take a different approach? And that's where Lean comes in. Lean is a weight loss supplement developed by doctors at Brickhouse Nutrition for people who feel stuck, especially those who have maybe 10 or more pounds to lose, can't seem to get past that plateau.

It seems that way. But remember, meat is actually different. We have very high prices on meat. The farmers for the first time, the ranchers are making money on their herd. But that's the first time in, well, since I've been ranching in 20 years, that's the first time. but they will come down if we can get some of these things implemented. You know, one of the things that we have to do is BLM land.

That's not Black Lives Matter. That's Bureau of Land Management. They own in the West, they own, that's the federal government, their land everywhere. And if we can get our animals to be able to graze on BLM, which the lefties started pulling all of that land back and started shrinking, that land. We need to be able to open that up. And the good news is Donald Trump just announced that he is opening up more federal

land for grazing. So that will also help. The problem is, is this right now is a problem because fuel, fertilizer, equipment, interest rates, everything. COVID, all of this hit our ranchers all at once. And they had to sell their cattle to be able to keep their farm. Some of them didn't even make it. That's why we have this small herd because everything hit them at once.

Now is the time to do the right thing so the farmers and the ranchers can keep their money and be able to buy more calves and be able to grow them. But remember, it's at least a two-year process before you start to have more cattle. The last thing we need is a bunch of foreign cattle coming in, especially if it doesn't say this is from Brazil. Now, some people might, they might go, I don't care where it's from. I do. I want American ranchers to survive, and it is imperative, imperative that our farmers and ranchers survive, and they're not all giant ag companies. They've got to be locally owned.

Hello, America. You know we've been fighting every single day. We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you. tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it.

Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single review helps us break through big tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth. This isn't a podcast.

review, share. Together, we'll make a difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now let's get to work. You know, there's a problem with the way most of us think about health. We assume that if something is wrong, we'll know it, or our doctor will catch it at the annual physical, but that's really not how it works. Most health problems build slowly. You're a little more tired than you used to be. Your sleep isn't quite as good these days. Maybe you feel a little foggy, a little off. And every year you're told, good news, your blood work looks fine, until one day it doesn't. And by that point, you're not preventing a problem, you're managing one. That's why I like what Jevity does.

They look deeper at over 100 different labs, including hormones, inflation, metabolic health, nutrient levels, the kinds of things that actually help you understand what's happening in your body years before a diagnosis. A technician comes to your home, they draw your blood, and then a real care team walks you through the results so you actually understand what those numbers mean.

I got to tell you, with nine women on the jury, I look at this as a good thing. I think if it was going to be not guilty, it would have happened quickly. There's somebody on the jury. I think that's like, whoa, wait a minute.

wait a minute, wait a minute, not so fast. It's just my guess, but it's day number three, and we're expecting an answer at any time. We'll see as we watch that case in mass. Also, the president announced over the weekend the largest oil sale of all time. We have purchased with penny stock. I can explain all this.

we have just purchased some of the oil fields in Venezuela. We're now partnered with them in a public way, but the United States now has first right of refusal for about 20% of their oil. This is really good. Again, it's not an overnight thing, but it is something that sets us up for the next hundred years. And if I were Kearney in Canada, I would be looking at that going, oh, crap.

but a lot of things come into play on that. And I'll explain that. Probably next hour, I want to start with something that I just think is ridiculous and continues to be ridiculous. We put a T-shirt out the Welcome to Lake America T-shirt, which I think is hysterical, hysterical. I think the whole argument is hysterical. I think the name is hysterical.

I think all of it. And what's crazy is, in a completely different way, half of America is hysterical. Canada has become hysterical in a completely different way. And I want to explain how this all works for anybody who's hysterical, because it is hysterical. We'll talk about that here in just 60 seconds. First, let me tell you about real estate agents. I trust.com.

A house is one of the few things you buy where the price tag is just the beginning of the conversation. You don't walk into a Costco, find a television for $800 and say, I'll give you seven. 50. You want the seller to fix that scratch and pay part of my closing cost too. I want you to pay for the taxes. They just say to you, can you leave Costco now? Real estate is different. They're asking a price and they're asking price is something that they're not fixed on. That's the opening price. Then there's an offer and then another offer and a counter offer and then the inspection, then repairs and contingencies and deadlines and a stack of paperwork that seems to reproduce itself when nobody's looking.

that's why it matters that you have the best real estate agent you can find. Real estate agents, I trust.com. This is my company. I did it so we can find and vet people that are the best in your area. I use these. When I move to Florida, I use the real estate agents to sell my house here and another real estate agent to buy a house in Florida. Both of them were from real estate agents.itrust.com.

Real estate agents, I trust.com. Okay, so Thursday, the president signed an executive order changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America. I love this. I mean, it's like saying if you don't want things named after America, you got the wrong guy. It's kind of like if you don't want everything in the Oval Office covered in gold, you got the wrong guy. Now, just like the gold, the next president can come in and say, I don't like all the gold. The people didn't pay for that. president did. If you don't like all the gold, don't worry, the next president can come in and

take off all the gold. You don't like the name, Lake America, don't worry. The next president can come in and go, yeah, we're not going to be Lake America. It's going to be Lake Ontario. Okay? Asked what the message was. He said there was no message. And then he explained at some length that it was all about Canada. Well, Mark Carney fired back within hours. The name is 400 years old. It predates the Confederation and the Declaration of Independence. Doug Ford added, it will be Lake Ontario to the Canadians and the rest of the world now and forever. Well, you don't know that. You don't know that. I sat there and I watched two governments go to war over a word and I thought, am I the only one that kind of finds this funny? I mean, funny like a man in a good suit

walking in, you know, to a glass door. You feel bad, but you laugh anyway. You know what I mean? the argument Canada is making is the exact argument we've spent 15 years telling people was invalid. Dan Snyder wrote a letter to his season ticket holders in 2013. The name was never a label, he said. It was a badge of honor, strength, courage, pride, respect. Roger Goodell wrote almost the same letter to Congress. And the country said, no, no. You don't decide what honors somebody else.

You don't. Okay, all right. So the argument won. The team is now the Washington commanders. Stupid. Now, the same argument is back. This time wearing a maple leaf. And everybody has switched sides without appearing to notice.

So let's just review the last 15 years. Indiana became the Indians became the guardians. The Eskimos became. the Elks. The Stamford Indians became the Cardinal. Not Cardinals, the Cardinal, singular, which I still don't understand. Squaw Valley became the Palisades Tahoe. Dixie State became Utah Tech. Yale renamed a college. Princeton took Woodrow Wilson's name off a school, which in fairness Woodrow Wilson deserved and earned. Aunt Jemima became the Pearl Milling Company, which sounds like a defunct textile operation, quite honestly. Uncle Ben's became Ben's original, which is the same guy with the last name removed, like he's in witness protection or something.

The Eskimo Pie became Edie's Pie. Land O'Lakes, removed the woman from the label, kept the land she was still sitting on, which I believe is a single most on. the nose thing that has happened in the entire decade. Oh, this is occupied territory. Yeah, that's right, but we're going to remove the Indians, and then we'll all feel better about it. The Dixie Chicks became just the chicks. Lady Antebellum became Lady A.

The Boy Scouts became Scouting America. Splash Mountain became Tiana's Bayou Adventure. In software, they renamed the Mesaubour. master branch to Maine. So somewhere a computer feels better about itself. And then the words, Mother, how dare you, became a birthing person, breastfeeding, became chest feeding.

A convict became a justice involved into, a justice involved individual. An ex-con became a returning citizen. A fat man became plus-sized. A homeless man became unhoused, which did not house anyone, I just want to point out. The master bedroom became the primary bedroom. And a manhole, a hole in the ground that a man climbs into became a maintenance hole. Hispanics became latinx or Latinx.

I don't know which it is because it was completely invented for the Hispanics by people who were not Hispanic, which about three or four percent of Hispanics have ever used. And I don't know those Hispanics. I know the Hispanics that are like, that's stupid. This is not a language change. This is a party nobody came to. Gender, which used to mean the same thing as sex, now means whatever. the sentence needs it to mean.

And before anybody, you know, on my side gets to comfortable Gulf of Mexico became Gulf of America. Donali went back to McKinley over the objections of Alaska, which had been asking for Denali for about 40 years. Nine army forts were renamed back, but with a wrinkle because Fort Bragg is Bragg again, but on paper it honors a different brag. the Pentagon picked up a second name. And now a great lake that, you know, we've always known as Lake Ontario, has a new name.

So we're all in the game here. The lake that has been renamed over and over and over. And never once did it take. Do you know that before the Europeans showed up, there wasn't even one native name? The Windat called it Ontario, meaning the lake is beautiful. The lake is big. Big lake.

Beautiful lake. That's what they called it. They didn't have a name for it. The Mohawk called it, I don't know. I'm going to butcher these names, but it's like Cartatawi or something. Different nations, different word, same water. Champlain reaches it down in, 1615 and he writes the name as

Locke Saint-Louis, after a French king who had been dead for 400 years. Then the French rename it Locke Frontenac after a sitting governor of New France, wherever New France was. And this one had teeth because there was a fort at the east end of the lake with the governor's name on it and soldiers in it. So maps of the day called it, oh, something entirely different, Lake of the Iroquois, a king, a saint, a governor, a garrison, an empire. And the word that survived all of them was the one word that meant pretty lake. Nobody protected it.

There wasn't a committee. Ordinary people just kept saying it. The maps eventually gave up and was like, whatever, call it Lake Ontario. Which brings me to actual good news. And it comes from us. In 1917, let me just look this up here real quick. A 1917, this country renamed Sourcrowt, Liberty Cabbage. That was done by the Democrats, by Woodrow Wilson.

Hamburgers became Liberty steak. German measles, Liberty Measles. Doxins were Liberty Pups. Okay. Go order Liberty Cabbage tonight, see what they bring you. In 2003, this time the Republicans, House of Representatives, renamed French fries in its own cafeteria to Freedom Fries. Freedom toast, too, not French toast. Big announcement, cameras, statement about our so-called ally, blah, blah, blah. In August 2006, the menus quietly said, yeah, let's just put French fries back on there. There wasn't a press conference. There wasn't an executive. There's no. There's no. ceremony and the reporters went around asking who changed them back. Okay. Both congressmen who made the original change said it wasn't me. That's how these things end. Okay, not with a repeal, with a shrug because nobody really cares. We're going to call it Lake Ontario forever. Gulf of America may stick. Lake Ontario, I don't, I don't know. I don't know. Language is not a

policy. It's a habit. And there are 300 million people holding it. And none of them care what's on your letterhead. Okay? I want to give you this sentence. And I just, just listen to this for just a second. Tell me what's wrong with this. A mother, a woman, and kind of a heavy one, through the realtor, although the realtor would say plus size, breastfed her son in the master bedroom of a little house down on the Gulf of Mexico. Fed him and Chimima pancakes and Uncle Ben's rice, gave him an Eskimo pie when he behaved and put him

in the Boy Scouts. She cried when he finally got out of prison and quit being a convict and started fixing manholes for the city. And last summer, he drove her north. Not towards Mount McKinley, wrong direction, past Cleveland, you know, where the Indians play, up to a diner on the shore of Lake

Ontario, where they split an order of French fries and a side of sourcrow, argued about the redskins, and listen to the Dixie Chicks the whole way home. What's wrong with that? You know what's wrong with that? Every word of that sentence is dead on paper. But every word of that sentence is alive in America's kitchens.

Okay? They'll tell you you can't define the word woman. They can. They know exactly what. Ask any one of them at two in the morning in a hospital. hallway when it's their own mother in the bed. Is she a woman? Yes. They know. Everybody knows. They're not confused. They're trapped. They're trapped because they said the thing out loud in front of, you know, a bunch of people and they can't say it in front. They can't use the other word in front

of the wrong people because the whole wrong people group will turn on them and go, what do you mean you know what a woman is? How can you possibly, to find we don't know what a woman is and so they're trapped that's not evil that's a trap and i've been in a few of my own but i have to tell you mom is always going to be mom she was she was my mom in 1964 she's my mom today there's moms in 1600 and there's moms in 2100 and no president no prime minister no committee no mob on the street is going to get into the middle of that with a two-year-old and that evil word, mom. I got news for you.

Stop being hysterical. Just enjoy it because it's hysterical. The lake will be Lake Ontario. Not because Canada's winning the argument, not because Trump lost the argument, because it's four syllables that mean that lake is beautiful. And people like saying it. And every empire that ever tried to hand them, something new or something better is now a footnote.

It's been changed over and over again. It keeps coming back to Lake Ontario. Why are we arguing about a name on the map? The map is not the country. The map is a piece of paper in a drawer, in a building. And the people who own the words, they don't work in that building. So please stop with your high and mighty.

I can't believe he changed the name. You tried to change the name, Mom. Please shut the pie hole. At least I'm a guy who will go, I'm just enjoying it for the last. And I'm selling T-shirts right now online. Get one. While they last. While the name lasts.

Visit Lake America. I'm enjoying it because I think it's hysterical. But don't come preaching. Don't come knocking at anybody's doing. door saying, I can't believe he's changing something as sacred as what, mom, as mom, as sacred as, I don't know, woman, man. Yeah, yeah. I'll take the Lake Ontario thing every day of the week over all of the language that you have jammed down people's throats. I guess you don't really want to open these doors, you know, because somebody that's not you ends up walking through

that same door and doing things you don't like. Learn your lesson yet back in a minute. You know, it's really sucks. What really sucks is starting your day out pretty much any day of the week.

Liberals are very pissed at this. They say you can't just go around renaming things to suit your political agenda. Just ask any Latinx birthing person. Listen to his audience. his audience has changed. A year ago, his audience wouldn't have known what to do. If he would have said that a year ago, they would have, it would have been dead quiet because they would have been so confused. I don't know what to do.

I've been trained not to laugh at things like that, even though it is really, really funny. I can't laugh at that. This is such a weird time to be alive. I kind of dig it. I don't know about you, but, you know, I'm keeping journals in my life, and I suggest you do the same. Because people, your grandkids are going to be like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, birthing person?

And depending on who wins this whole thing, I mean, the Lord wins in the end, truth wins in the end, so we know who's going to win in the end. But maybe it'll be your great, great grandchildren that have to read this and go, they really thought they were going to get away with birthing person and no mom. Come on. No, write this stuff down because, uh, trust me, eventually some, some historian will take your diary lost. They'll take your diary and they'll write a book at it about how crazy these times are.

It's a woman on Magnolia Avenue. Saturday afternoon. St. Paul, 700 block of Magnolia Avenue east. Fire department ran three calls in that city that afternoon. This was just one of them. The call goes out. It's a duplex. Inside was a 38-year-old woman named Bonnie Pierce.

She had two daughters. She's 38 years old. She has four daughters and a grandson, but two are in the house. Fire came up fast. One of the girls, Aurora, was trapped in a room, so the daughter kicked the air conditioning unit out of the window frame and climbed through the hole that she had made. Remember that.

I mean, where did she learn that? learned it from somebody saw it someplace but brilliant Bonnie gets out too she was outside air in her lungs grass under her feet the whole rest of her life in front of her and then she counts one daughter on the lawn the other one grace the baby the toddler not on the lawn

wait wait wait what happens next took about four seconds to decide everything in her life she immediately turned around, she runs back in. Now here's what firefighters walked into just a couple of minutes later. The interim chief described it as heavy fire, extreme heat, zero visibility, meaning you can't see your own glove in front of your mask.

You have to search that house by feel. You go down on your hands and knees in the dark, in a room that is trying to kill you, and you feel around on the, floor. Firefighter gets there. He feels a body on the floor of the bedroom. It's an adult woman. She's unresponsive. He gets his arms under her to carry her out and when he lifts her, he finds a toddler underneath her. She had made herself into a shelter or a roof in the dark, blind, out of time. She had found her baby and she had gotten on top of her and she stayed there knowing that her body would burn slower and save her child possibly. The firefighters carry both of them

out to the front yard and worked on them there. Bonnie had burns over 48% of her body. She had been without oxygen for about 15 minutes. They got her to the hospital. She lived too. She lived two more days. She just died. Grace is in the hospital. She's expected to make a full recovery. That's the whole story and it doesn't need anything added to it. What an amazing story. What an amazing mom. Her sister Jenny stood up at a press conference at the fire department headquarters and said, Bonnie died a hero and that's what she'll always be. She said her sister was the kind of woman who'd give you the shirt off her back and apparently everything underneath her shirt. Her mom, Terry, spoke last. Whatever else you hear today, hear this. She said she'd lost her

daughter and she'll miss her every single day for the rest of her life. And if there was some store you could go in and buy your child back, she would have driven there already. She said, I just want my baby back. Neighbors came in. They covered that duplex in. flowers. And they rode on the sidewalk in chalk one word over and over. One word. Hero. Hero.

The investigation into the fire on how it started is still open. That's not the part of the story that we need right now. Because you probably haven't even heard her name until now. And that's probably because there isn't anything to argue about. There's no verdict coming. there are no two sides of this. It's just a woman who did the thing, the one thing that moms do.

And there's no fight, and cameras always go where the fight is. I wanted to take some time today and just talk about this amazing mom. You know where the cameras are. The cameras are in two courtrooms. In the Bronx, a judge named Audrey Stone found a woman

deemone Fleming, not responsible for a reason of mental disease or defect. In other words, reason of insanity. I can't say that anymore. In 2022, at a family shelter, she killed her two little boys. One was three, one was 11 months old. Now, you're seeing the headlines, if you see this story, that she walked free, because that enrages people, but she didn't walk free. In New York, that finding means she gets committed, potentially for years, potentially for a

very, very long time. She's not going to be walking out of there any anytime soon. And the psychiatrist who testified said she was grossly psychotic, hallucinating, convinced the world was ending, convinced something had gotten inside of her body. The psychiatrist was hired by the prosecution. The state's own expert, prosecutors looked at what they had and agreed she shouldn't stand a normal trial. That's not a loophole. That's how the process works. That's what it's for. The father of those boys sat in the courtroom and heard the ruling. He told the New York Times he forgives her. He said she loved those children. I don't know what to do about all that except take my hat off to the man. Pray for her. Now in Plymouth Mass, the cameras are certainly there. 12 people,

nine women, three men, went back into a room. this morning deciding the case of Lindsay Clancy. She was a labor and delivery nurse in Duxbury. In January 23, she killed her three children. Cora was five.

Dawson was three. Callan was eight months old. Then she tried to kill herself and lived. Nobody disputes what she did. The fight is over what was happening in her mind. And I have to tell you, the more I watch this, but I am not in the room for

all of it. I'm only seeing highlights. I'm only seeing the things that people who are posting no will outrage and so it will go viral. And I have been outraged at times. I see this and say, I don't believe her at all. Her lawyer says postpartum psychosis and bad medicine and, you know, worse care. She had been discharged from a psychiatric hospital less than three weeks before. prosecution says, no, she knows exactly what she was doing. That's what's sitting in front of the jury today. 12 people are carrying it. I don't know.

They heard 85 witnesses. I haven't heard any of them. I've heard bits and pieces. But let me tell you what those cases have in common. And it is not the diagnosis. There is such a thing as a mother genuinely, medically out of her mind. Postpartum psychosis is real. It's rare.

And it's savage. And it turns a person into somebody they are not. And the women that it happens to, they're not villains. They're casualties. But there is also such a thing as evil. And that evil has learned to speak the language of illness. Because that's the language that gets you out of it. Telling the difference between those two is probably the hardest job we would ask ordinary citizens to do.

We asked 12 people who were folding laundry six weeks ago to look into a stranger's mind at the moment in the past and say, that's what was there. I mean, how do you do that? But we ask it anyway, because that's the, you know, the other alternatives just locking up sick people or, you know, excusing the wicked ones. Both of those are a country I don't want to live in. But notice what makes it hard. It's hard because we all agree on the standard. Every single one of us, the prosecutor and the defense attorney and the psychiatrist and the grandmother in the gallery, nobody in that room is arguing what a mother is supposed to be.

They're arguing about whether this one could still reach it. The standard's not in dispute. It's rare. The standard is the reason there's a trial at all. And I'd submit to you that the standard doesn't live in a law book. or a diagnostic manual. It got carried out of a burning bedroom in St. Paul, Minnesota, just a few days ago by a firefighter who found a toddler underneath a woman's body.

We live in a society that can't define what a mother is. That is what a mother is. Not the sentiment of it, the physical fact of it. It's the thing that gets between the fire and the child. Every time, without a meeting, without a poll, without weighing the options in about four seconds. She's down on her knees, feeling the floor for her child in the dark. Man, we spent an enormous amount of time in this country arguing about the exceptions.

And the exceptions are worth arguing about. A civilization is judged partly on how carefully it handles the exceptions. But it's the rule that holds the roof up. and the rule is a 38-year-old woman with four daughters and a grandbaby on an ordinary Saturday in a duplex on fire in Minnesota. Grace is in a hospital bed right now. She's a toddler. She has no idea. She's going to get better and she's going to go home to a family that's one person short, her mother.

And she's going to grow up. And one day somebody will sit her down. and tell her the whole thing, and she'll understand it. She'll understand her sister kicked out a window, that her mom got out of that house and then turned around, because that's what moms do, and that's the reason she's alive, that her mom was the standard,

and her mom went back in. General rule about home maintenance, if the job requires me to climb above second-story window, those, it's not my job anymore. I fell out of a second-story window, oh, 30 years ago, 35 years ago, and my back has not been the same. Your furnace has a filter you can change from the floor.

If you believe the truth still matters, you're in the right place. Glenn back will be right back. Well, it's Monday, gang. Welcome to it. Jason, can you tell me I cannot find if this story that I heard is true or not? And that is, did we just dig a new canal through Oman? Did we just do that? It's the weird thing, is we're not getting an official confirmation.

I gotta know. Which actually makes sense. They're not going to confirm that right now because that was the rumor going around, starting around Friday or so, and multiple different... I'm writing somebody... Bigger names were commenting about it,

said that, you know, if this is true, it is on the level of moving mountains, basically. But the rumor was, is that they dredged out a certain area to allow larger ships to get through. And it was in a location due to other islands that are in the straight Vermeuse and the curvature of the earth, that Iran did not have a clear shot, you know, a clear

eyes view on oil tankers that are going through that part. I mean, if that is true, it is absolutely amazing. I'm writing to somebody who will know this and can give me a straight answer on it. Yeah. Yeah. I can't imagine the administration would actually confirm, yes, this is what's happening right now because they don't want too many eyes on it. But there were people that were pulling up, you know, satellite imagery, things like that, showing that there were ships going through it. If there was a major naval operation, U.S. naval operation to pull this off, that's thinking way outside the box. That has to be one of the greatest things we've ever done.

I mean, you know, I'm going to talk about this oil thing. If I were Kearney, I would be, I'd be freaking out right now. Not for the short term, but for long term. I'd be freaking out. The president just announced on Friday, the largest deal on oil makes us by far the largest market for gas or the largest provider for oil and gas. By far. And it just has sewn this all up into a nice little hemisphere that doesn't have to worry about getting its oil from any place else. I want to go into that, but notice,

Carney doesn't know that's coming. The president knew that was coming, and everybody's like, you can't do that because of oil and gas. Really? What now, Canada? There is some amazing things happening in the world, both good and bad. One of the things is the National Association of Christian Lawmakers

has just sent a letter to President Trump asking him to create an expedited legal pathway for Jewish Canadians to relocate to the United States using existing refugee humanitarian visa authorities while keeping the normal security and immisability screening in place. The letter claimed more than

2,000 Jewish Canadians have expressed an interest in leaving Canada over safety concerns, harassment, vandalism, threats, violence against their schools, synagogues, and businesses. This is, I mean,

I got to get into the last time this happened was 1939 we're here we are here at a different world now let me tell you some something good that happened something really good that happened

is what happened with Venezuela the biggest oil deal in world history just happened now there's some downsides to this and some things you need to understand but this will show you exactly what the world what Trump is doing with the world.

And I told you that he was making the Western Hemisphere and the United States as bulletproof as possible so we can stand for the next 100 years. That's what he's doing. And the proof is in the pudding. And if I were Canada, I would be very concerned about this long term, very concerned. You're on the wrong side with China.

But let me give you the seedling here, the story of what happened with the, with the oil deal that he announced on Friday. We do that in 60 seconds. First, Patriot mobile, there is a decent chance your phone number has been with you longer than your car, maybe longer than your house. You know, maybe you got that number three jobs ago, back when your cell phone had buttons, and the most impressive thing it could do was play that terrible version of the entertainer,

and somehow those same 10 digits are still yours, which is one reason people hate the idea of changing phones. switching wireless companies. They don't like it. They want to make sure that, you know, they don't have to change their phone number. You don't. When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you can keep your number.

There was, it's been a lot going on. There is a lot going on in today's world. And flock cameras are on the list again today.

I want to talk to a little bit more about this because we are aiming. we are aiming our anger at the wrong place. And I don't know you see anger. We think we're going for a solution when we are absolutely not by attacking Flock. And I want to explain that because these cameras are dangerous. They need to be not a part of our society. But Flock is one company. And I want to explain that.

But first, let me take you on Friday night. On social media, the president announced what he called the biggest oil. deal in world history. Here's what it is in plain English, okay? The United States has entered an agreement with Venezuela and the acting government.

A private company is getting created and the United States takes a stake in it alongside with a private operator whose name has not yet been released. That company is granted the right to develop Venezuelan oil fields for 100 years.

America gets 50. of what comes out of the ground. We have an ownership share, plus the right to buy the oil at cost instead of the market price. You want to know how we're going to fill our strategic oil reserves? This is it. Now, the number attached is 65 billion barrels of proven reserves. If that holds, that new company becomes the second largest corporate holder of oil on earth. only behind the Saudis.

The president says it more than doubles American reserves and costs the taxpayers nothing. How's that possible? Well, let me explain. Now, Venezuela's side is supposed to be roughly $100 billion in private investment and something north of $200 billion in their treasury. That's the deal. Now, here's the part that decides whether any of this matters. There are two things in this country called reserves, and they are not the same thing.

The first oil reserve is the oil that's in our ground. That's geology. It's a number of survey writes down in a book after he looks at rock, okay? 65 billion barrels in Venezuela is that kind of number. It's a promise about the future. And a good one, because Venezuela is sitting on more proven crude oil than any country anywhere on planet Earth. The second kind of reserve is the strategic petroleum reserve. That's not geology.

That's a pantry. Okay? Along the Gulf Coast in Texas and Louisiana, there are these natural salt domes and they're buried underground. And what you do is you pump water down, the water dissolves all of the salt, and you're left with this giant cavern, the size, honestly, of a skyscraper turned upside down. We did that and then we fill it with oil. Now, Congress authorized it in 1975 after the Arab embargo that left Americans sitting in gas lines wondering how the most powerful country in the world just ran out of oil. And we started filling it in 1977. It holds 714 million barrels.

In 2010, it was full. 726 million barrels of oil. Last week, it was announced, we're down to 289 million barrels. That's the lowest it has been since November of 1982. Back when we were still filling it for the first time, okay? And it was on its way up. We're on its way, it's on its way down now. We started the year at 415 million barrels.

In March, when Iran choked off the strait of Hormuz, the president ordered 172 million barrels released alongside other nations that were doing the same thing. Every nation is in the same, even China, in the same place we are with oil reserves, okay? Real oil, the pantry kind of oil reserve. Now the floor is around 70 million barrels. Below that, you can't physically operate the caverns and the pipe, you know, runs out of them, runs about 4.4 million barrels a day at maximum. that's about 13 days from a presidential signature to a truck at your station.

That's how long it takes. So you set the two numbers next to each other. 65 billion barrels under Venezuela that we just purchased. 289 million barrels under Louisiana. One of them is a lease. The other is fuel. You cannot put a hundred-year condoes. contract into a salt dome. Okay. Now, we've been here before and this is an important lesson to learn.

There was a Frenchman named Pierre Puev. His name literally means Peter Pepper. So I'm going to call him Peter Pepper. Okay. So Peter Pepper picks a pepper. In his time, Nutmeg was the big thing. Nutmeg came from a handful of tiny islands in the Dutch East Indies and nowhere else on the planet and the Dutch owned all nutmeg and they controlled the trees they controlled the price and they burned the surplus stock just to keep the price high don't you wish you because I could cut nutmeg out of my life like that don't you wish that was our big thing anyway they wanted a monopoly so badly that when they made a deal with the British they let New Amsterdam go and keep a nutmeg island the size of a golf course where's New

Amsterdam. Does anybody know? Manhattan. So Peter Pepper thought a monopoly on a plant was an absurd thing to accept. So he went and he stole it. And he lost his right arm to a cannonball years before. He tried and failed for two decades. His first seedling died in the ground at Port Louis. And he was, he had convinced somebody that he had killed, or somebody had convinced him, I can't remember exactly. Anyway, people thought that he had killed that plant on purpose. But he kept going. In 1770, he finally got healthy nutmeg and clove seedlings out of the islands and onto the soil where he was.

The monopoly didn't end. He finally had the trees, but it didn't end. Because nutmeg doesn't care about your shipping. schedule. It takes better part of a decade before it gives you a single nutmeg. When the first one finally ripened in the garden, the colony threw a festival. But the festival ended. Because the seedlings were just seedlings. Today, the little island of Grenada shows so much nutmeg that they put it on the flag, which brings us to Canada. Canada right now sends about 90% of its crude to the United States,

roughly 4 million barrels a day, and supplies like 60% of everything we import. It's heavy, it's sour crude out of Alberta, the oil sands, and our Gulf Coast refineries are built specifically to refine that. That's why when Washington imposed 50% tariffs on Canadian furniture and dairy and plywood, it deliberately left crude oil off the list. And it's why Prime Minister Carney, after walking away from the table on the 21st, started reminding audiences out loud how much energy comes from Canada. Okay, he didn't know that we were about to do the deal with Venezuela.

Does it take Canada's leverage away? On paper, yes, in about a decade. Venezuelan crude is heavy and sour, the same barrel that Alberta sends us. It is the one other place on earth with that much of it, and that's a genuine substitute, and Ottawa knows it. So Carney has just been handed a very short leash. You got like 10 years, and I know that's a long time to us, but in the grand scheme of things, that's not.

in the room this week, it's not going to make a change. Venezuela is only pumping about 1.2 million barrels a day right now, and at its peak, 3.5 million, now that's back in the 90s. To stand in for Canada, it has to triple that, and that requires rigs and upgrades and upgrades and pipelines at $100 billion. I mean, these are the seedlings. The seedlings are not nutmeg.

You don't win. overnight. And notice which direction the SPR cuts, the Strategic Oil Reserve or a petroleum reserve. The normal answer to a supplier squeezing you is to open up the pantry and wait him out. But our pantry is at 40% of its capacity, the lowest in 44 years. And there's a war on. You know, empty reserve does not strengthen our hand. It hurries us. Okay. then there's a thing that Canada is certainly saying to itself is how long is that contract going to last you because it was signed with an acting president installed after we took the last one out a hundred year lease is only as good as the government that granted it and the one

after that now if we're smart and I think we are we made a very good deal with Venezuela this is very good for them now will it be in 50 years I don't know but everybody is, that's an energy executive, is looking at Venezuela and they're asking what this looks like five years, 10 years, 20 years down the road. And that's not a partisan question. That's due diligence. Now, the honest read of this deal is this oil does not have to come out of Saudi Arabia or cross the straight of our moose. It doesn't need a carrier group to escort it. Anything that reduces the number of choke points between us and a tanker is worth having.

If you're going to be dependent on somebody, a neighbor beats an enemy all the way on the other side of the world. A hundred-year horizon is the right horizon for refineries. So this argument is real, and it doesn't require anybody to lie about the calendar. But the calendar is the whole thing. The mistake is not making the deal. The mistake is bargaining today with a barrel that arrives in 2035, leaning on the lease while the pantry runs down,

and the man who actually fills your tank every morning is standing across the table watching you do it. Peter Pepper was right, but it still took him 20 years and cost him his arm. The Dutch didn't lose the nutmeg trade the day. the seedlings left, they lost it, the day the trees bore fruit. And this is not going to bear fruit for maybe 10 years. We're planting the trees. We are going to be getting this oil to fill the pantry. We should never negotiate with a harvest we don't have yet. And we don't have it. But I don't think the president was negotiating with that. I think this whole thing was about Canadian.

politics and trying to side with China over us. And that's a losing game for them in the long run because the president is sewing up this hemisphere. He is changing everything. And that's why Carney is so motivated to go work with China because China knows it. I have met with prime ministers around the world now in the last six months. And I've met with three of them. And all three of them have said the same thing. I know exactly what your president is doing. And it doesn't really include us.

It doesn't include Europe. It doesn't include the Middle East. It's all about the Western Hemisphere. And he is rewriting all of the rules to make you guys and the Western Hemisphere the power of the world that can stand and survive on its own. We know that. We're not happy about it. We know that.

Why don't the American people know that? You've wanted a president that looks down the road. Now, the problem is we have to have a president that is also not losing an arm like Peter Pepper and just looking 20 years down the road. We need somebody that's looking today as well. But you should know. This is the first time in my life that we have a president that is not just looking at today. He is building this to last for decades. And that's the real problem we have had.

We have been short-term thinkers for too long while the rest of the world plans decades ahead. We have not. We only planning four years down the line. This is a good move. it's not going to help us tomorrow, but it is going to help us in 20 years from now, maybe 10 years from now. And it could just refill our strategic oil reserve faster than that. All right, let me tell you about Simply Safe. Simply Safe is 20 years old this year.

Think about how much technology has changed. 2006, I started doing work with SimplySafe. Maybe it was 2007. The phone was barely smart. your television was three feet thick. Remember how heavy those things were? Security was mostly about an alarm that made noise after something bad had already happened. Twenty years later, Simply Safe, has completely changed that idea.

Because the best time to deal with the problem is when the problem is still outside. You know, a raccoon, better outside. Hornet's nest, definitely outside. A guy you don't know wandering around your house at two in the morning, I'd like to keep that one outside with a raccoon in the hornet's nest. Simply Safe has a smart AI-powered outdoor camera system that detects suspicious activities and alerts a live U.S. base agent who can assess what is happening, intervene through the camera to scare off the trespasser, to call 911, dispatch if you needed, if they think that there's trouble there. Simply Safe has been protecting your world for 20 years. Celebrate their 20-year anniversary and save 60% of, on your new SimplySafe system.

I sent you. There is no safe like SimplySafe. 10 seconds. Station ID. So, Jason, I am really concerned about this story. You just talked about it with the insiders about a half an hour ago.

that is coming from the National Association of Christian Lawmakers. They sent a letter to President Trump last Thursday that said, we need to create an expedited legal pathway for Jewish Canadians to relocate to the United States using existing refugee humanitarian visa authorities while keeping normal security and immisibility screening. They're saying that 2,000 Jewish Canadians have expressed interest to kind of. here. I believe that it is the, I believe it is Oklahoma that said, didn't there, governor just say, we'll make room for those Jewish refugees if need be? Yes. This is a little

terrifying because we're on fire as well. Things are really bad here and getting worse in the United States. But, you know, what's really scary is the last time this question was live was 1939 and the the democratic answer through FDR was no. More in a minute. Let me tell you about Cozy Earth. There are people in history who deserve status. The Soviet officer who in 1983 got a warning that American nuclear missiles were incoming, he decided the warning was wrong. And he went against everybody. And he, I mean, he saved, he prevented. nuclear war. This is literally the guy

who saved the world from nuclear annihilation. He deserves a statue. Willis Carrier, the guy who invented modern air conditioning. Build him two statues. And somewhere lost to history is the first being, you know, human being that discovered the value of a cool, soft sheet. I want a statue for that guy too, you know, because there were a few things,

very few things that are better than a cold, comfortable sheet. It's the reason I love Cozy Earth. I sleep on their sheets every night. They're incredibly soft, smooth, lightweight. They're naturally breathable. They're designed to wickaway moisture, especially nice if you're hot sleeper and I am. They come with a hundred nights sleep trial and a 10-year warranty.

So they're not going to build a statue to any of these guys. But you can sleep well at night and sleep cool with CozyEarth.com. CozyEarth.com promo code back. Okay. I don't want to be a little black rain cloud. I just want to tell you the truth as I understand it. We are making great progress if you're against the flock cameras. I'm against flock cameras.

I think it's a general warrant and it is unconstitutional. So flock safety is on the run. Cities are canceling their contracts and people are climbing poles and cutting cameras down, which I also don't agree with. Do this the right way and the pressure is mounting. This week the CEO went on TV, you know, and ask for a national compromise, which is what a company says when it no longer sets the terms. So Autumn Billings just wrote an article for reason called Getting Rid of Flock isn't enough to solve America's surveillance problem.

And she's absolutely right. The headline really is the whole argument. Flock has 120,000 cameras in 49 states and reads more than 20 billion places. a month. It is the biggest. But it's not the only one. Why aren't we talking about Motorola? You know, Motorola Network, they scan over half a billion plates a month and they set no default limit on how long that data is kept. The NYPD holds five years of data. Axon, that's the old taser company, is selling the same service to departments that already buy its body cameras. The ACLU analyst quoted in the piece says the thing worth remembering,

don't take comfort in what a company happens to be doing this month. Put the protection in law. Okay? If you beat flock and changed nothing else, you haven't won. All you've done is picked a vendor. You've put one vendor out. I mean, when you look at this thing from that point of view, it's almost like this whole thing is a plan of motor.

I'm not saying it is. but it's like a plan from Motorola. It's like Motorola sitting around. How can we put flock out a bit? I know. Let's start a campaign against flock cameras. They'll never see us. I mean, that's how crazy this is.

Now, here's a part that should worry you because it's not about cameras. February 10th, my birthday, 1995, the White House sent Congress a bill. Nothing happened. Smoking Crater. No funerals on television. nobody afraid. Yet the White House sends this bill. It was the Omnibus Counterterrorism Act.

And what did these bills do? It expanded wiretap authority. It loosened the rules on records. It made it easier to use secret evidence. Who introduced it? Joe Biden. Schumer carried it in the house. and Spector and Feinstein signed on, okay?

Civil Liberties organizations, ACLU, et cetera, they went crazy. Congress yawned, it went nowhere, okay? Two weeks later, two weeks later, a truck bomb took down the federal building in Oklahoma City. That April, the New York Times read a headline. If you saw it, you probably didn't forget it either. The blast, it said, turned a snail into a racehorse because the same bill was introduced. Same paper, nobody wrote anything new. All they had to do was wait.

Now, Congress at the time, didn't give them all of it. When the Anti-Terrorism Act finally passed in 1996, the surveillance provisions had been stripped out by a rip. Republican Congress over a Democratic president's objection. Clinton signed it anyway. And in his signing statement, he listed his complaints in writing. He asked for roving wiretaps so agents could follow a suspect from phone to phone. Congress refused. He asked for easier access to hotel records and phone records, but Congress stripped it out. Read that list again in the fall of 2001. and you're reading the table of contents of the Patriot Act. What did it give us?

Roving wiretaps, Section 206. Access your records without anyone telling you, Section 215. The one that people ended up calling the library provision. It was signed 45 days after the towers came down. More than 300 pages, assembled in the last hours, voted on by members who mostly hadn't read it. Years later, Joe Biden said it out loud on the floor again on television, and John Ashcroft sent up, you know, his bill.

This thing was not written by John Ashcroft. It was not written by Joe Biden. He said that they wrote it after Oklahoma. After Oklahoma City. No, he didn't. He wrote it two months before. Then there's the name. USA Patriot.

The Patriot Act is actually USA Patriot. You know what USA stands for? Uniting and Strengthening America. Oh, is that what it is? United and Strengthening America by P. Providing appropriate tools required to intercept and obstruct terrorism, Patriot. USA Patriot Act.

Now, nobody wrote that sentence and then noticed a happy coincidence. A staffer on the House Judiciary Committee picked the word first and built a sentence backward to fit it because he knows we're suckers. William Sapphire called this immoral. They had named it before they finished it because the name was that. the argument. Go home to your district and explain that you voted against the Patriot Act after we just had this. That's the machine. Okay. That's how the machine works. I'm going to get back to the flock cameras here. But I want you to know, that's the machine and there is a drawer. And that drawer is never empty. Both parties have a drawer. They have a key. And none of it requires

a conspiracy. It just requires patience. It requires people who, think they're better protecting you than you are. They think they know you and can run your life better than you can. They think that they're above the Constitution. In 1928, the Supreme Court heard the case of a Seattle bootlegger. Federal agents had tapped his phone lines from the basement of his building and from the street outside his house. They never set foot on his property. They also committed a crime doing it because Washington State, wiretapping, was against the law in the time. The court said five to four that the evidence was good. No trespass, no search. Nobody's papers were rummaged. Nobody's door was kicked in. The wire was outside of his house. So the Fourth Amendment just didn't apply. Well, one justice dissented and wrote a sentence that should hang in,

every city council room all across America. Okay? Because experience should teach us to be most on guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are for good. Men born to freedom, this is what he wrote, are alert to evil-minded rulers. The greater the danger, the greater danger is a man of zeal, well-meaning. and without understanding. They're just trying to protect you.

That's the big danger. Now, he lost. It took 39 years to admit that he was right, but he lost at the time. Four justices in 1928 understood something that we haven't quit teaching. A right is not a policy. It isn't a setting on a dashboard.

It doesn't stop at the doorframe just because technology found a way, around the doorframe. The question was never whether the officers trespassed. The question was whether a free man gets a life the government isn't entitled to watch all the time. And the answer in 1928 was yes. So is that how we're arguing now? No, we don't argue rights anymore.

We never do. We argue retention periods, 48 hours instead of 30 days. Warrant requirements. Is there an audit log? Now, every one of those is worth having, and every one of them is a negotiation over how much of a thing that belongs to you the government gets to keep. The government can't keep any of it.

So take the cameras down. Take them down. But I want you to know what comes next, because they are going to come down, some of them. But somewhere out there, is a tragedy that hasn't happened yet, a child that has been taken, a shooter who crossed three straight lines, you know, all within a week. And it happened and it was a tragedy and it was awful. But somebody would have found that person if we just had the plate readers. We would

have caught him. And you know what? When they say that, they'll be telling the truth. That's what makes the drawer work, because they'll just go to the drawer and pull out flock cameras again under another name. There'll be a mother on television who deserves every bit of your sympathy, and there'll be a bill with her child's name on it, and we'll all sob, and we'll all say something has to be done, and so it'll come out, and it won't be called the Total Surveillance Act. It'll be named after the victim, the poor child that died, or it'll spell out something in red, white, and blue. And it will already be written

because it's written now. It's sitting in a drawer waiting for the funeral. And the cameras come back. Only they'll come back next time, federal, with money behind them, and a statute over them, and a seven-day retention policy a company chose voluntarily this month.

And it will become a five-year mandate that you can't vote. out. And it'll all be done because of that poor child. We've been here before and the receipt is dated February 10th, 1995 when the Patriot Act was actually written. Now, the only thing that stops it is not a ban, not a boycott, not people climbing up, cutting down the cameras, not a company's bad quarter. What stops it is a country full of people who know what their rights are and treat them as real. Not permissible. Not settings.

Things no legislature handed to us, and therefore things the legislature cannot trade away. Not for safety, not for a name, not for a flag printed on the letterhead. None of that stuff. I'm warning you, unless we start having this flock camera conversation this way, they're coming back, and they're going to be much stronger. They're not just going to, you think Motorola's just going to fold up and go, okay, well, that was a bad idea. People didn't want it. They were cutting it down.

No, no. They will find a way. There will be a tragedy. There will be a terrorist attack. There will be something. And everyone will say, we've got to do something. And that drawer will open up. So when a man asks you for your vote, stop asking what he'll protect you from. Ask him what he will refuse to touch. Because the ones who come from your liberty,

never really come in their own name. They come in the name of your dead, and then everyone's four giving it away. We're making progress on the flock camera. What about all the other companies behind? And what about the desire to keep you safe? When it happens, and it will, will you be prepared? Have we made the argument for the rest of America? So the rest of America

will not trade their freedom for security. More in a minute. Paid for by Super Sure Insurance Agency LLC, a licensed insurance agency.

Listen to this. Some of them still have concerns about your relationship with Hassan Piker. They'd like to see you do more.

some have concerns with... I'm just going to say this. I'm going to stop you right there. If we're here where, what state is this? We're in the state of Michigan. If you want to make this race about a streamer in California, I just think you're missing the vote. This is about affordability in Michigan. This is about being able to see a doctor in Michigan.

This is about Donald Trump's disaster policy. So he had no problem bringing him in from California, but now that it's toxic, I'm not talking about a guy in California. Why are you? This is about affordability. Now, speaking of affordability, here's the Chicago mayor about business and diversity in Chicago. Listen to this.

If you want to do business with this city, we want to know whether the people leading your company reflect the diversity of the communities whose tax dollars are paying your contracts. So they are not, they are still doubling down. They are still going that. And yet, here's Rahm Emanuel on socialists. Listen. They say the energy is not with the people of the past. It's moving forward with socialism.

Your response. Look, here's the thing. I don't consider Democratic Social as part of the Democratic Party. About four weeks ago, they had a convention in Chicago, separate party. They believe in defunding the police, letting prisoners out of... I got news for you. The Democratic Party is the Socialist Party now. Rahm, too late.
