Yeah. I think they would. They probably would on that one. So the peace situation in Ukraine, we do have a little more information. We didn't know a lot about it yesterday. Yep. Everything's fine. It's solved.

Yeah. It's all done. In fact, world peace has been achieved in the last 24 hours. So congratulations to everyone involved. Yeah. So no matter where you go, peace reigns on this planet. Yes. It's great.

It's a surprising beginning to your Thanksgiving weekend. Yeah, no, there are some pretty big developments. First of all, I feel like we were totally misled by the reporting, as I've said here now for the 10,000th time since I began this program back in the day. But the initial reporting, and we talked about this yesterday, we had no idea what was actually in this peace deal. Everyone was talking about it, and we were very suspicious about the way. way the story was being told even yesterday. And I, you know, I think our suspicion was well placed because what we learn over the past 24 hours is this all started with the Trump administration essentially trying to replicate their success with Gaza, right? They decided they

were like, what if we kind of go back at this and take the same approach we took with Israel and Gaza and see if we can hammer this thing out this way. It started with, you know, Wikoff and Kushner and they go to Russia and get what Russia wants, right? They start with Russia. They go to Russia. Same way they started with Israel. They went to Israel and they said, okay, well, you know, you would say maybe the upper hand, they went to that country first and said, hey, what do you want out of this? What can you accept? What are your red lines? Where can we draw these lines? Give me some points. They get the points, which seemingly are that 28-page or 28.1 pager that kind of goes through everything.

So then they go back to Ukraine, which is, I don't know, only like a week ago. And they start getting their points. What it seems like now is that what we viewed as this 28-point plan that seemed to really favor Russia did really favor Russia because it was their plan. right? Like, it was the Russian plan and it was leaked before we got a final version of this with a lot of Ukraine's input. Now, that is a massive change as to what we were initially told. And it makes a lot more sense. We talked about this yesterday. If you're Ukraine, really, you're going to agree to this? It seems like it's, you know, aggressively against you. Well, it was. It was Russia's wish list, basically. Yeah. It's like you can have Kharkiv. We get the rest of the country. Right.

That kind of thing. And not the entire, not all of it. You get that one kind of... There's a shoe store in Kharkiv that you guys can have. Half. That's yours. Now, you can't have the shoes inside. We're going to take the shoes.

No. But you can live inside the shoe store or at least... And by the way, we also hit it with a drone last night. But you can have what's left of that building. Right. That proposal from Russia was not approved by Ukraine. Weird. And so...

And we did say yesterday. This sounds pretty bad for Ukraine. Yes. And it was. And it was because it wasn't the final deal. Yeah. Now, there is more to this, of course. The big issue being that, yeah, you know, Ukraine might agree to something with some changes.

The problem is once they start changing, it does Russia agree? Yeah. And that's where I think we're going to run into a big issue here. I don't think Russia's going to agree to any of the changes Ukraine wants. and Ukraine's at a tough spot right now because they are kind of embroiled in a corruption scandal. I know this is going to shock you, Pat. It does. Yeah.

Wait, what? Yeah, I know. Because Zelensky came in with an anti-corruption platform. Not the President Volodymyr Zelensky who played a piano with his noodle once. Not that guy. No. He's not in it, right? No.

His noodle. Is that the technical? That's a technical term. Medical term. It's a scientific term. Yeah. Okay. You have to, excuse me, I did not go to medical school. So I did not know that was the... It's understandable.

Yeah, no. So he played... So I don't know how much the noodle playing of the piano made it into the corruption scandal or the negotiations here. But he apparently did that. And then in addition to that, also had a good buddy who, you know, reportedly, allegedly was bilking the government for nine figures. So that, you know, tends to get in the way. Nine figures. Okay, you think seven is a million. Eight is tens of millions. So over $100 million. Yeah, that was the, it was $100 million was at least the grand scope of the entire scheme.

Now, of course, obviously, there's lots of denials here. You know, Zelensky. Would that surprise you, though? I would not surprise me. You know, look, I think there's a, I'm not like anti-Ukraine. No, I'm really not. I think there's. I'm just anti-funding this forever.

That's all. I'm anti-funding this forever. But I want them to continue to be a sovereign nation, not ruled by Russia. Exactly. And I'd rather have Ukrainians in the world than I'd have Russia's in the world. Yeah, for sure. That's, you know, you might not agree with that, but that's definitely how I feel on this. And that being said, Ukraine very well known for its corruption problem.

This goes back to... It was one of the most corrupt. I mean, before all this began, they were known as one of the most corrupt governments on earth. Now, at some point, it switched to, if you pointed that... out you were a pro-Russia. He loves Stoge, Putin. Which it's not true. You're practically in love with him. But you go back, this is not only

what they're saying now, what Trump has said. This is, you know, there's a Biden scandal related to this. Goes back to the Obama administration. This has been going on for a very long time. And so it's not surprising at all that they would have a corruption scandal. The reason why Zelensky's

in office is because he stepped in and said, I will stop the corruption, which indicates there was corruption. Now, A little bit. Yeah. It does seem that as he, at the very least, he was unable to stop that. Or, as some would accuse him of being maybe more friendly to it, when his buddies are the ones involved. Now, of course, he would deny this.

The accusation here and the difficulties that they're dealing with around that accusation has put, you know, Vizelensky in a very weak position. And so this is a time where Russia is saying, well, let's go. I'm not giving up anything. This guy barely can stay in office right now. Like, we're not giving up anything. Not to mention that obviously they have a long-term favorability when it comes to just force. They've got a lot more people. They've got more weapons.

They've got obviously nuclear weapons. And Ukraine is very dependent on us and Europe to even hold the lines that we have. But all of this being said goes back to it was not a. give away to Russia, as was initially reported. At least that's how it seems today. Will they change all the reporting tomorrow? They might. But what we kind of know now is, hey, it looks like, yeah, it was sort of a plan that was designed by Russia because it was the first step in a process that they already executed successfully in Gaza, where they went to Israel and then they had back channel dealings with Hamas to get their red lines and wish lists. And then they

combined them, came up with compromises, went back and forth, presented this final deal. That was the plan here. And somebody leaked the Russian part of this. Now, that's an interesting part of this whole conversation. Pat, who leaked it? How did it leak? What was the intention of that leak? Because that leak seems to have blown up the peace process.

That's kind of a big deal. Yeah. Yeah. Somebody who didn't want this to be solved. leaked all this stuff. At least that's the accusation. Now it's basically blown up, right? And we don't really have all the specifics of whatever it was that was agreed upon by Ukraine, supposedly, right?

Because they manipulated all the stuff that they got from Russia and it's not the same deal. But mostly what we reported yesterday was most of what Russia wanted. And so we were just assuming that it was a lot of the 28-point plan. but I don't think that any of it's been released. Yeah, like, well, like one of the, one of the bits and pieces have been at least reported. Again, you're depending on reporting and that's always difficult. But one of the things, one of the issues was Russia wanted the Ukrainian military to drop down to, I believe it was 600,000 troops. And Ukraine is basically like, no, we're going to keep it the same.

we're not going to drop it at all. Now that's a... So they didn't even agree to the $800,000 we talked about yesterday? There's been talk about that, but the latest that I heard was that they didn't want any reduction at all. Now, maybe that the final position was they came in between and said $800,000. Maybe that's what we'll find out. But the bottom line is they did push back on that. Yesterday we were saying, like, how could they accept that?

How could they? Well, they didn't. Apparently they didn't. So I don't think Ukraine sees that. themselves as this is over for them. Like, I don't think that they feel they have to just accept anything. I don't feel like they're that much on their heels. However, we, the suspicion is behind the scenes, we're saying, look, this is not the Biden plan.

This is not as much as you want, whenever you want for as long as you want. I'm sorry, we can't do that forever. So you better, even if it sucks for you, you better figure out a way to get out of this so that at some point, we have to stop supporting you, you aren't in a position where you just have to surrender. Yeah. It's not a blank check anymore. Right. It can't be.

It can't. It can't even be for us. We don't even have the stuff for ourselves to fund a war and to support a war that goes on forever. There are rumors that our weapon supply is really compromised now because of everything we've given to him. I'm sure it is. And so you can't have that. I mean, there's other things brewing all over the world. And we can't be depleted like that.

You can't allow it. I mean, there's something bubbling over in Japan right now. Xi Jinping just called President Trump with what's going on with the Japanese. Because Japan has said they're taking a strong stand for Taiwan and saying that their Taiwan's security is Japan's security. And so Xi Jinping got on the phone with President Trump and said, do you want to talk them down from that position, please? I mean, things are a little bit iffy right now. We're kind of on a knife's edge here with several situations.

And the thought process is that China has almost decided they're going to take Taiwan next year. That's what or in 2027, one of the two. A lot of people believe that they've set a date for it and it's coming in the next year or two. So that could be ugly. It could be ugly. Now, we don't have an actual military agreement with the Taiwanese. We will give them support, but we don't have an agreement like we did prior to the 70s where if they were attacked that we would help them militarily. That's not a thing.

and I think a lot of people believe it is. Yeah, I can't. Yeah, it's not. What is the distinction there? Because we certainly talk. It's something like a, we'll, like a support. We'll give you a. We got you guys.

Yeah. Yeah, no, no. Just, we'll help you move. Yeah, right. Just give us a call, you know? Yes. Yeah, yeah. I mean, are we going to be there moving furniture?

No, no, no, no. No, no. But just give us a call and, you know, like, we'll. We'll give me a moral support. Yes. Hey, you guys are great. you can do this. You got this. Honestly, that's probably the reality with a lot of these agreements.

Even the ones that are in writing, at the end of the day, if there's a massive, even NATO, you wonder, how does that hold up in a real situation? Like, if we, you know, we, what is it, Finland was the most recent edition or is it? Probably. Or Norway. I can't. It was one of those. I get, it was one of those countries. I think it was Finland, wasn't it? Anyway, we were like, wow, you're in NATO now. Congratulations. You've been in for six months. If Russia invents Finland, what are we really doing?

Now, I don't know. It might be a call for moral support. I'm concerned about it. Certainly, we would help with weapons. Certainly, we would help in many ways. But I do wonder how, in a real world situation, how NATO performs in that world. Like, do all these countries really go in? in and start attacking Russia?

I think it's like with a 401K. We'll wait till they're fully vested. Okay. In NATO. Yeah. It's like a 10-15-year process. Do they know that? I don't think they know that.

They do now. They do now. We're sorry. Yeah. By the way, we're sorry. You're better. What is vested for you is slingshots. We were going to send you a bunch of slingshots.

So how far would you go for, let's say, a NATO company, our country, for Finland, for instance. I mean, if Russia does, in fact, ever, and I don't expect them to anytime soon, but if they did invade Finland, would you want to commit military to that effort? Would you want to put boots on the ground in Finland? I don't know that I'm quite there. Because I mean, that's the promise. Love, love Finland. My son served a mission there for two years. But do I want to defend them with military?

Am I mistaken or is Kexi? Ketze, it is finished. It is for cookie. Yes, it is. You named your company. I did. After the Finnish word for cookie. Right.

And you're not going to step in. I'm not going to. Bless your hearts. Your finished sales are going down. Love your life. language. Love your language. I think, look, first of all,

NATO has no value if we don't, if the official position is not that we would just go in and help. What's the point of it if we don't say that? With boots on the ground. I'm saying something totally different as a talk show host, a guy sitting in Texas. But I mean,

what are people committed to, though, as far as NATO is concerned? I mean, Poland, Finland? all this stuff, yeah. Czech Republic? I don't know. Good luck, everybody. Right. I wonder if things really, you know, I think there's a good argument to be made that we would be very involved.

I just don't know how involved we would be. And I think when you go outside of the walls on NATO, when you get outside of that concept, when you're in, you're talking about a Taiwan, I just, I'm sure we'd be supportive. I'm sure we'd send weapons. I'm sure we would. Support in some way. Monetary support, weapons support. Yeah. I would be surprised if we didn't.

But I... And we don't want it to fall. I mean, what is it? 85% of the computer chips in the world are made there? Yeah. And there's always this talk about if this does happen, do we just go in and bomb these chip factories so that China can't get anything out of it?

Like, they don't get the advantage. Now, I don't know. That seems to me to be more like a plot line of a movie or like... It's almost like Fantasy League national foreign affairs. James Patterson novel. Yeah, it does kind of seem like that. But I don't know. A lot of stuff that gets...

is real. It's based on real things, real plans. Yeah. So I don't know that we would do that. And I wonder, you know, NATO at one time, I think, was strong enough to support every, you know, countries really being like, no, we're going in there. I don't know. If Russia got on the march, though, there very well might be a change in attitude on that. People realizing, wait a minute, you know, this is like a Germany back in the day, we better do something about this. Again, we're talking about a scenario where they are invading multiple countries in Europe. Like Europe certainly, I think, would step in because they would say, this is coming to us.

They're not like, yeah. That's been the argument. That's been the argument with Ukraine. And I think it's, I do think, by the way, this is a real concern for Russia, especially for Europe. I would be concerned about it in Europe. Yeah. I would be like, wait, what are they doing? You know, you pointed out yesterday, they have some arguments going back many years that have

some validity to them when it comes to promises made to Russia. in the post-Soviet era that were not kept up by the West. So there are sides to this. But the key thing is that Ukraine is not in NATO. And so we were able to say, no, we're done. We'll send them some weapons or whatever. Good luck, guys. You know, that's the way that works.

It gets into NATO territory. It could be a totally different story. This is Glenn Beck. Let me talk to you about Legacy Box.

It's due for Glenn this week. AAA 727 BECK. You know, it's not just New York where they're trying the government-run grocery stores. They're doing this in Atlanta now, too. Oh, great. Yeah. Let's expand that idea. It's a great idea.

You know, communism, why hasn't anybody done it right yet? They've never done it right. They've never done it right. You know. If it's just done right, it's an incredibly wonderful system. It would work perfectly if it worked perfectly. Right. Right.

Exactly. They never talk about that. They don't. They don't. And the right person just hasn't done it yet. Yeah. But obviously, Zeran Mamnani is the right person. He's the guy for that job.

Yeah. I think when you're looking to implement a massive overhaul of the, world's financial capital. What you want to do is get some completely unaccomplished guy who just came here from Uganda and just kind of like throw them into the job. You know, a lot of, I think part of it is, you know, sometimes people learn too much. They understand the world a little too well. And then they get these jobs.

They don't know what they're doing. Right. You got to throw in a guy who's never accomplished a thing in his entire life, except rap about how bad Jews are. You need that guy to kind of step in. And it was good rap too. I mean, now, again, I'm not a rap aficionado like you are. Like, when I think of Pat Gray, you are, right.

Really, you know. When you think of who, who would be the expert in the world of rap, you say Pat Gray. A lot of people would say that. A lot of people do say it. Online, especially. That's true. Yeah, like I see a lot of those articles with like one commenter said, Pat Gray really knows his rap. I love articles like that.

Yeah, me too. Me too. So they're going to try this in Atlanta as well. When the Azalea Fresh Market opened this summer, it became the only supermarket to operate in the city's downtown area in two decades. To make that happen, the city contributed $8 million in cash, grants, and loans. So what did it get? Walk me through this.

Because I used to do a series on my previous show for Blase, TV called The Wonderful World of Stew. And it was a series called Deserted. And it was an investigation of food deserts across America. And what I found in all of the food deserts that I went to, these are areas that supposedly had no opportunity to buy groceries. All of them had plenty of opportunity to buy groceries. It was just a lie.

Right. I would go to places that were literally claimed by the federal government. to be food deserts and find three grocery stores within four blocks of each other, right? Like grocery stores, some of them small, some of them large, some of them, you know, inside a Walmart. So there was other things inside. Like, I don't know what line they would come up with. They'd be like, well, this doesn't count because it doesn't have X, Y, or Z product. It only has 9,000 other products.

It was hard to even determine. It had to be fresh food, right? Right. It couldn't be a fast food joint, for instance. Right. And I don't, there are almost always restaurants. So you could always go and buy things, but they're talking about grocery stores. We kind of kept to the...

You could get produce, couldn't you? At most of these. Every single one of them. Food deserts. Every single one of them that we, maybe we did eight episodes or something like that of that series. And they all featured fresh produce. Well, what started it was I looked at, this is a serious thing. I looked at the list of food deserts.

And I live in a, we live in an area that's, I think, nice like it's a Dallas Texas lots of nice suburbs we are working in uh you know in a city called irving that has a lot of stuff going on like a lot of stuff in it in between uh you know uh you around the airport there's a bunch of big uh you know kind of suburbs and large areas but like there's stuff kind of everywhere like one of the reasons why i like living down here is everywhere you go you can pretty much get anything you want it's very easy i lived in can Connecticut, I grew up in Connecticut. And, you know, there's a, there's plenty of stuff there, too. But like, a lot of times it was 15-minute drives to go to grocery stores because, you know,

there was maybe a more rural area. Here, there is very, very available food and kind of everything you want. So I go, one of the places that we go to do our grocery shopping. Again, I'm a person who is, I'm not living in, I'm not living in any city. I'm living in a town. The place I go do my grocery shopping, which is five minutes, 10 minutes for my house, whatever it is, like a quick drive, it is in a food desert. I'm literally grocery shopping inside of a food desert on a regular basis. This is when this started. So I went and I looked, not only was there one grocery store that I would do my grocery

shopping inside of a food desert. There's another one. Like, there's like a Walmart. Then there's a target right around the corner. Then there is a, you know, like an upscale sort. of at the time, I can't think of the name of it, but it's like an upscale, like grocery stores got some produce, it's like a smaller place, but it's also got some prepared foods. Like a Trader Joe's. It wasn't a Trader Joe's, but it was that type of place.

Smaller than a whole foods, but it was more, you know, there's that. And then there was like another place that had some stuff, all in this area that was designed as a food desert. Now, I don't know why, but like, you know, it was like one of those super Walmarts that has like 78,000 varieties of cereal when you go there. It's massive. And they're telling me, well, people just can't find food here. Michelle Obama's telling me, oh, well, people just struggle to find any food. Uh-huh.

So I don't, is it, would it actually be true that you can't buy groceries in the quote, downtown of Atlanta? No, I just don't believe it. I don't either. I don't either. If you live in downtown Atlanta, please give me a call. Do you have groceries in your home? Have you been able to purchase?

And this goes beyond the fact that we now have things like Instacart. Yeah. Where you can get groceries delivered wherever you are. Now, I understand if there's a certain income level there that might be like there's fees associated with it. So not for everybody. But groceries are pretty freaking available. Everywhere. Almost everywhere in this country.

So this particular market they're talking about, the azalea fresh market, is a 20,000 square foot. That's the beginning of what officials hope will be more publicly funded but privately run supermarkets to come. They want this to happen all over the place. Other towns across America have experimented with similar stores with what they say are varying levels of success. So that's a great way of saying everything failed. It was a hyperlink. So I clicked on it to see the varying levels, right? Oh, cool.

So the aforementioned varying levels of success, I clicked on that and I found out where they're experiencing success. And as a matter of fact, all the stores they mention where they're experiencing the various levels are either closed or are closing. You can call that varying levels. I don't know if how success works there, but maybe varying levels of failure would work. Various, yes. Okay, so this is, though, let's be clear about what happened here and what the problem is. The problem is you. Me?

You're not supposed to click that link. No, you're not. That is not how the media works. Don't be curious about their varying levels. They made a claim. Just live with a claim. Go with it. There was success.

Here's what you're supposed to take from this report. Some were only modestly successful. Others were incredibly successful. Maybe the most successful thing ever created. Somewhere in there is where all these stores fell. In reality, all of them failed. All of them. It is amazing because I thought, okay, I want to see if, you know, these publicly run or owned,

these government-owned grocery stores are actually succeeding. not one place did they mention where it's working well. Not one. Of course not. And they said, now, did this town of 1,000 people in Erie, Kansas have the answer? Well, no, they didn't because it's not working either. There's a Walmart 15 miles away that people go to avoid the government run one in the town of 1,000 people. It's unreal.

How bad all of these grocery stores fare. And, you know, the same thing happens with the other thing he's talking about. And that's the free buses. The free buses in, they said that it's being tried in four other cities in America. We looked up all four. How's that going? It's failed in all four. Wait, would you say there's varying levels of success?

I would say varying levels, yes, of total failure. So it's failed everywhere. Failed everywhere. Kansas City just closed up theirs. Stop doing it. There were several other, like three other places. And for a while, it was working in one of them and then they shut it down to. Because it just doesn't work.

The standard of for a while it's working is even misleading. Because what does that mean? Yeah. The fact that the, the. That they haven't completely gone belly up yet. Right. That's a totally different standard than working. Yeah.

The fact that it still exists and is able to be funded for a while. No. Right. What happens is these things cost gigantic amounts of money. people don't use them. And eventually, politics says, okay, well, we can't continue to fund this thing that people aren't using or we're going to lose our jobs. They're going to vote us out.

And so eventually the money dries up and that's why they fail. They don't fail because they lose money because of course they're losing money. There's no way for them to make money. Right. The money's being coming from the taxpayer. If you don't include all the free money they got from the taxpayer, then all these programs look wonderful for a time. That's like when they say free health care, right?

Well, I mean, I guess in theory, if the American people decided it was correct to donate multiple billions of dollars constantly to these programs, well, they can stay afloat for a while. It doesn't mean you get good service. It doesn't mean it's something that people enjoy. But you can throw money at these things and, you know, people like getting stuff for free. You can keep it going for a while. Yeah. But eventually the...

It's going to... People's money dries dries up yeah and I don't even understand like a lot of times they're like well if we put a grocery store in this area it's because people did you know that people can't walk to the grocery store to get their groceries you know it sucks is walking to get your groceries like that's a terrible way to get your groceries now I understand in some city environments to do that right like you know nobody if you're living in Manhattan right it's you have to maybe you know it's not easy I mean you're probably kind of take an Uber with a large order. Yeah.

But like, you know, for a lot of people in a city environment, like sometimes it would be great to have a store right across the street, I guess, that you go over and carry all those heavy bags across the street to your house. But like, that's not what most people do. Like, I drive all the time, five, 10, 15 minutes. Not because there's nothing closer. It's because I'm going to the, to choose the store out of the incredible bounty that capitalism has provided.

Right? Like, hey, I've got 14 choices of where to go, uh, shop. where do I go? Now, you get deep, some rural areas where, you know, there's no people where you drive for 10 minutes and you've been looking at one property the whole time. Like, yeah, there's not going to be a grocery store in every corner there. It doesn't make any sense. Right. And that's a food desert. Is it? Is that really what we're talking about here? It's like these these are made up terms. It's nonsense. It's a way to take more of your money. and direct it toward a giant project started by Carl Marx many years ago.

And Mom Donnie's in the middle of trying to do that to the world's financial capital. God, this is not going to work out well. No, it is not. Triple 8-727 back.

I guess we got to stop this. It seems like it ended kind of with Obama. That was a big deal during the Obama years, was people living in food deserts, where they can't get fresh food, they can't get produce. They can't. I mean, they can get burgers or they could get fries,

but they can't get a banana. Yeah, that's the idea is, you see, A problem with our health, Pat, is that people want to choose zucchini but just can so they keep getting Big Macs. It's the dumbest argument in the world. People just like Big Macs more. That's what the, that's the secret. The secret sauce here is their secret sauce.

That is what it is. There's no doubt about that, too. It's just, that's true. That's just fact. I will say you're right in that it's not promoted nearly as much. Like a lot of the stuff are, they are older reference. to the food desert thing. Maybe we did solve it.

Why didn't we take a victory lap on that? Yeah, you should. That was stupid. You should take a victory lap on that. Yeah. But now what the thing is, is no preservatives and no food coloring. You can't use red dye number five and stuff, all the JFK Jr. Or RFK Jr. stuff.

Yeah. JFK doesn't talk. He doesn't talk again, just like the food doesn't. Not a thing. He doesn't barely even talk about anything. You hardly ever hear from. Very quiet. It's weird.

RFK Jr., though, is talking about the stuff a lot. And, you know, I guess that's the thing. Look, the bottom line is people make bad choices about what they eat because the stuff that is a good choice sucks. Right. Right. That's the secret to the world. Yeah.

When you want to unlock the secret of health. Let's see. I could have spinach or I can have a cheeseburger. Mm. People just want to cheese. Yeah. Yeah. Every time.

And honestly, like, these companies could make tons of profit on spinach if people wanted the spinach. Right. They really be excited to give you. They really don't want it. Yeah. Like, McDonald's would serve spinach if people wanted it, I assure you. They just don't people don't want it. I love it when President Trump talks about having RFK Jr. on Air Force One with him when they served McDonald's.

And he had to meet a Big Mac. He actually ate a Big Mac. Wait, I mean Mr. Health Food? He ate a big Mac? I'm back. If you have a hoodie, sometimes you pick up that hoodie or a T-shirt, it's already kind of clear that it's not something that's going to last, right? It's got the thin fabric. It's got loose seams.

It's got colors that are not going to survive. They just kind of fade and just get, you know, it just doesn't work, right? American Giant is different.

They were talking to the military. Mark Kelly was among them. Speaking to our U.S. military that you don't have to accept illegal orders, right?

And there were, it was Mark Kelly and there was a bunch of the other zeros that we have. No idea who they are. There's all military members, former military or CIA. Okay. CIA or military members themselves. And then with that message to the military. And here is Mark Kelly on Rachel Maddow talking about that video. Let me first just get your response to this threat from the Defense Department saying that they are investigating you.

They may potentially recall you to active duty to face a court marshal. Well, Rachel, I said something that was pretty simple and non. controversial. And that was that members of the military should follow the law. And in response to that, Donald Trump said, I should be executed. That's the issue. I should be hanged. He didn't say you should be executed or hanged. I can't even listen to this guy. This despicable lying sack knows exactly what he was doing and why it's controversial. He knows why. Of course. What do you even, why are you even addressing the military and saying this to them? A couple of them have blurted this out now because people keep pressing them. They're like, well, why would you do it? And he'll say, well, this is exactly

why we're doing it because we're out of control as a government. So they are now kind of admitting the reason they did the video, which they didn't initially, which is they believe zero specifics. I have not heard, however, not heard. One media organization used the term without evidence to describe their claims because none of them can describe what has actually been done that is illegal. Right. They just keep saying, you know, we just want to make sure people don't do things that are illegal. Why? Why is that an issue? Why?

When has it ever been an issue? No Republicans did that under the Obama administration or Biden. And they would have had a fit if they did. If a bunch of Republican senators got on and were talking to the U.S. military about not accepting illegal orders, they'd be like, why are you even bringing that up? When did Barack Obama do anything illegal? So, I mean, it's just, it's despicable. And besides that, it puts that little doubt. What they're trying to do is create that doubt in members of the military that when the commander

and chief does give them orders, is that, well, is that an illegal order? Is that what I was warned about? I mean, it's really dangerous. It's really dangerous. And he should be investigated. I know. Just not to quibble at all with your take here. He did pretty much, he did sort of say that they should be executed.

I got to point it out. He did say he's talking sedition. He didn't say they committed it necessarily. It's honestly the same line these congressmen are doing. They're like, well, hey, guys, whatever you do, don't listen to illegal orders when obviously what they're doing is accusing them. What he technically said was seditious behavior punishable by death. Well, that's got nothing to do with them. He's just saying it, guys.

You can't play the same game used. I will say, you know. But he didn't say, I'm going to have Mark Kelly executed. And, of course, the most important part of this, and we brought this up yesterday, there's a zero percent chance that's going to happen. Obviously, it's not going to happen. Whether he should say it or not is another conversation, but like, it's not going to happen. He did also repost another person's message that said, quote, hang them.

George Washington would. And again, I don't know if that's ideal. I did not see that one. And George Washington actually did hang traders. And he hung them in public. A lot of people think he hung them on his front lawn. I don't believe he did that at his home. I'm pretty sure.

Just for property values, he wouldn't want to do that. You don't want to. No, the neighbors get pissed because it does drop the value. And that's, we got that directly from the agents at real estate agents. I trust.com. They're like, hey, whatever you do. First of all, don't paint a room a crazy color because people don't like that. And don't hang people on your front lawn.

Those are the two main. Now you tell me. Just last week. Ugh. So, again, I don't think any of this is helpful. How about that for a summary of the story? It's not. Nothing that's occurred around it is good.

You shouldn't come out and do what they did to start all of this, which is make this video. And the response has not been, I think it's been somewhat suboptimal as well. I think, though, what the investigation is about is trying to dig into how all of this happened. I think there's a suspicion within the Trump administration that they didn't just decide one day to make this very coordinated video. What is suspected here? I think. Exactly. You know, I think they think that there is a more direct, where they're sort of denying.

We didn't say that. we never told them to do that. I think they are going to, they think they're going to go into the text messages and find out that they did actually want to encourage them to do this for a reason that might lead to chaotic outcomes.

Okay. And I think so, it could be anything. I think they want a chance to look at all those messages and investigate and see what they can find. And by they, are we talking about leadership in the Democrat Party? No, I'm talking about the Republic. I'm talking about,

I think the Trump administration and the DOJ and the military suspect this video was made with either an outward goal of getting military members to disobey orders. Oh, I think, yes, I think that's. Well, I think it's blatantly true. I think we all can say, hey, yeah, we think that's true. But we don't have evidence of that. Right. What they think is if they're going to look into it. If they do an investigation, they're going to find that evidence.

And also, who knows who's funding this? And again, this is just a small video. They obviously could have made it for free. But oftentimes, these things start with an organization that is attempting to influence our politics. And was that part of the situation at all? So I think that's their belief or at least suspicion in this case. And I think if they can get into an investigation, they can root out what actually happened. because it was jarring just from the perspective of what are you talking about.

Yeah. Like, what do you mean? Well, of course you don't do things. It's like saying, you know, a video coming out, hey, guys, don't murder people today. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. We're not saying there's anything wrong with, with you, you know, remind you saying.

Not to break the law. But what's your motivation? Right. What would bring you to say something like that? And look, there are examples of the left saying that he's doing things. I mean, they've called his, when he's bringing troops into these cities to shut down riots and stuff. They say that's illegal. They say the Venezuela boat stuff is illegal.

There's a lot of things that are saying are illegal right now. Yeah. So I think it is tied to that. I think they want to know if there is a real evidentiary tie or is it just, you know, our suspicion. The Venezuelan boat thing is not my favorite thing. You just don't like traveling on them or what's your, what's their problem with Venezuela in both spat? Killing the people on them is, I think, an issue.

Just indiscriminately wiping them out without, you know, let's, I mean, due process might be a thing there. You know, maybe you pull them over. Maybe you board them. Maybe there's an interdiction there. That's kind of been what we've done in the past. Yeah, and that's what they'll say. But, okay, so now you went from that to escalating it to just kill them. I guess if you are 100% convinced that these are all narco terrorists, you don't have that much sympathy for them, right?

I guess if, you know. That's why it's not a big issue to the American people. Yeah. You know, they don't care. Because we just believe they're narco terrorists. And, you know, we're believing the government. You know, a lot of the people who are totally fine with this are a lot of the people that have told me over and over again, like, you know, hey, you know, you can't get involved in foreign conflicts because. Hey, remember when everyone said they were 100% convinced there was weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

In Iraq? Yeah. That would be a lot easier probably to determine, as opposed to whether one individual guy is an arco-terrorist. I also will say the location of these things has been interesting to me. Yeah. Are they in the open sea? Are they really on their way to the United States? They're like in these small little boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Yeah. It's really far. Yeah. It's a long way from America. They're like, should we wait until they're halfway? I don't know. That's my thing, too. How about this?

Wait until they're within 10 miles. When you're in the Gulf of Mexico, maybe we started. Right, okay. You have a legitimate argument at that point. Like what it, you know, because what they said that one of the Colombian, they're like, oh, it was just a fisherman. Now, it's a fisherman like probably, honestly, it's probably a fisherman just like it was just a Maryland father. Yeah, probably. Right.

Right. It's probably. Probably. Probably. Probably. But we do have ways of dealing with this that isn't just droning them. Now, of course, the truth of the matter here is, Donald Trump has looked at the situation and said, yeah, we've done all those things before. They didn't work. We keep having these situations. And we're sending a message. This is absolutely, there's a reason they're posting all the videos on social media. This is not about these individual narco-terrorists. They want everyone to see birds exploding. And they're, yeah.

And I will say this. If I was in Venezuela, would not be boating. For any reason, I would not go out in a joyous booze cruise to celebrate a work party because God only knows what's going to happen. And if I feel that way, I'm not even in Venezuela or near a boat. I can't imagine what the people who are actually terrorists think. They're at the very least developing different routes here. I can tell you that.

No question. Because so I think that probably is working. Now, there are legal questions associated with that, Pat. Yes. Usually you have to be at war with a country to do such a thing. And, you know, there is an internal document that's been leaked out, that it basically has a justification saying we're at war with this cartel. And, you know, there's some questions about whether you can get away with that legally.

But it's one of those great situations, sort of like the TikTok ban, I was complaining about yesterday. You know, most people just like TikTok, and so they're not complaining about the fact that we passed a law that in both houses of Congress, it went to the president, he signed it, it went to the Supreme Court,

and it was unanimously upheld, and we're just not implementing it. That's not something the country should be doing. But most people are like, eh, it's only the Chinese Communist Party controlling the thoughts of our children. Who cares? I know. You know, what's the big deal?

Yeah. I really think that lip sync video of the Kardashians is hilarious. And that's kind of where we are where they think of Venezuela and boat thing. And we're upwards of 100 people now. And I guess we just assume they're all bad people and they deserve to die. And so we've seen almost no evidence supporting that. I haven't seen any. I haven't seen any.

And the villagers are saying a lot of them are just. Of course they're saying that thing. They've said, though, that these boats and these boats don't look like they're long range boats to me. Right. Maybe they can make it to America. I don't know. The villagers are saying they can't. There's no way they could make it to America.

I don't know. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe they cut the corner. Because it's very different. This is something that not everybody knows. It's not very easy to get from Venezuela to the United States by foot. This is a difficult journey.

There's an entire place where there's not a road. Yeah. Right? Like through this bizarre jungle that they, is such a treacherous area. There's not even a road to drive through. You have to like, it's really terrible. And it's one of the highest crime areas, like on earth.

Yeah. It's basically a lawless zone in between us and them. And so maybe they're just cut in the corner and just going into like, you know, Belize or something and just be like, let's just drop all your stuff off there and you can walk it in. I don't know. I'd like to know. I don't know. That's another part of it.

The case hasn't really been made. Yeah. Show us the case. That's what I've kind of been wanting to see. Show us the evidence. I think everyone says. The evidence is these drugs are coming into our country and killing our people. So that's the evidence.

So stop it. We don't know that they are bringing them. Especially these individuals. We don't know it is these people. Yeah. In fact, you know, you wonder if we even know their names. Maybe they do. Look, we have really impressive intelligence resources and maybe they do.

Maybe. I would like the case to be made a little bit clearer and, you know, the legal justification to be spelled out. The fact that there's senators in his own party, in a president. the Trump's own party. And, you know, this is a big Rubio thing, by the way. Rubio very big on this. Yeah. He's good with it. But the senators who are friends with Rubio from his Senate days are like, hey, do you I just explaining what the legal justification is? Can we get like a piece of paper that says, hey, this is why we're doing this and how we're able to do it? Because it's not normal behavior for the United States. Right. And look, this situation might deserve out of the box solutions.

This is out of the box. It's very out of the box. But it should, I think, I, I think because it's such a popular thing to get rid of a narco terrorist, there's not a massive demand by the American people to hear the justification. Yeah. But we should go, again, process is important on this stuff. We should, we should know. I think so. We should at least know, at least the senators on these big committees should know. Yeah.

Call me picky. But I don't know that you blow 100 people out of the water just like that with no evidence that you're presenting to anybody. Maybe it's just me.

People don't understand what Friday means anymore. I've noticed over this period.

Yeah, because it's Wednesday. It's Wednesday. And every Black Friday sale now starts way earlier than Black Friday. I've noticed that. That's an interesting development recently. But the official Glenn, we're on the bandwagon. We're not going to say, hey, we think the date. the day is the day.

We're sticking to that day. We're not going to do that. We're not hardcore like that. We will say that everything in the Glenbeck merch store is 25% off today. Get the perfect Christmas gifts. Stand for truth. Go to glenbeck.com and click shop. Glenbeck.com and click shop.

Or else. Or else we're going to drone you. Okay. Blow you right out of the water. It sounds like a Venezuelan boat. Okay. Don't go fishing. If you don't go there right now, do not go fishing in the next few days.

What if you're in Venezuela, Pat, and you're like, I own a riverboat cruise that goes out in the ocean a little bit. I don't, I feel like business is down. I bet it is. I bet it is. Would you even go fishing if you're, I wouldn't? I'm not going fishing. I'm not, no, I'm not.

And if I'm going out, I'm taking a right. Like if I'm coming off the coast of Venezuela, I'm not going left towards America. I'm going right. I'm going, I don't know, somewhere south. No question. I don't care what the real situation is. And then when I get, when I'm coming back home, stay real close to the coast, hoping they don't notice.

Stay, don't go into international waters for sure. for sure. Because I think that all of these have happened in international waters, right? Otherwise, it's an act of war. Right. So, but again. We haven't done that yet. Right.

So that's, we might. I mean, it does seem like we're preparing for war with Venezuela. Does it not? It seems like we're getting ready. Or at least we're trying to at least, at least sending that message to them.

Yeah. Yeah. So I don't know. We'll see. We'll see. I will say that the New Yorker is still trying to soft pedal all the illegal aliens and people who have committed crimes for a really long time, they just want them to continue to be able to commit those crimes here in the United States of America.

They documented the deportation of Jamaican National Orville Atoria to a prison facility in Eswatini. And they're trying to make this out like it's a really terrible thing. And they quoted the illegal alien who is being deported as saying, it helped me imagine how the slaves might have felt going to another land in shackles and chains. And then there was a little community note attached to this. By the way, Orville is going in shackles and chains, not because he's a slave, but because he's committed serious felonies, including robbery and murder. So that's why he's going to.

to one of our facilities in Eswatini now. Oh. Yeah. So a little bit different situation. Now, maybe we saw something like that on the Venezuelan situation, I'd feel a little bit better about it. All right. What do these guys do? Help me out with that.

It's funny, it was on Apple podcasts the other day. By the way, go there, leave a review of the Glenn Beck program, Studeau's America, Pat Gray Unleashed. But I was on there and I clicked on Pat Gray Unleashed. Pat Gray-unleash to listen to your wonderful program and realized it was number one in the category of black hair discrimination. Yeah, we're pretty passionate about it. I didn't realize that big. We want it to stop.

I want the black hair discrimination to stop. And so do others, apparently. Good. Apparently, there's going to be no more hair discrimination in Pennsylvania. They finally put their feet down on this particular issue. Check this out. Clip 10. Sign the Crown Act into law.

All right. That would be the next step in making good on that promise of bringing about real freedom for all. Real free. This public policy campaign is my brainchild. In a nationwide effort, I have led since 2018. What a weird thing to say about yourself. Determining it was necessary to change the law to help. the longstanding and problematic practice of racial discrimination and the form of hair discrimination.

Very problematic. I subsequently developed the national legislative social impact and coalition building strategies for this movement because for too long, a myopic notion of professionalism and Eurocentric standards of beauty have perpetuated racial inequity and exclusion. We pause it for just a second. How many times have I talked about the Eurocentric standards of beauty? Centric Standards of Beauty on this show. Oh, many, many times.

I know you have a bumper sticker that says, please stop the Eurocentric focus of love hair thing, whatever it was going on. Yeah, I can't remember the exact bumper sticker pattern. But I know you have it on your car. I've got so many on my car. You really do. I just can't keep dragging. Too many, I will say.

But, and then who's the person on her? This is what I wanted to say. T-shirt. On her T-shirt. Is that her? Was she have a picture of herself on her shirt? I don't know. It's a good question.

I don't know the answer to that. What I, so we, I mentioned this as she was talking. First of all, the brainchild thing is what other people say that about you. Right. Like, this is the brainchild. Kexie cookies, the brain child of Jackie Gray. Like, that's, that's what you say. Yes.

About someone else when you're describing them. You don't say, this is my brain child. Like, that's like, you're bragging about something that I assume she thinks is good, though, I think is dumb. Like, for me, it's an insult if it's her brainchild, but that's a whole other thing. The secondary part about it is, it shows us this. picture again. This is about hair discrimination. You know that like she's wearing a t-shirt of a woman with like kind of like a very big hair. It's, you know, kind of crazy colors, yellow, green, red, all these different colors. All this to be to be said is her hair is totally normal. Her actual

hair is just like normal and parted like my hair is. It looks Eurocentric, frankly. It looks very very basic normal everyday person's hair. Yeah. You see, anyway, it's nothing, it's not even, all the example of something that would be discriminated against if this was even a thing. What you would imagine they're talking about are dreadlocks, I guess, right? I guess. Is that, I mean, are people discriminated against if they have dreadlocks? Is that what there is, is, that what you're supposed to assume from this?

Because I don't know of this hair discrimination problem. I didn't realize this was such an issue that. She's been campaigning nationwide for... She had a brainchild. She had to do something with a kid. Right. She had to do something, which is show up with Josh Shapiro and bolster his 2028 campaign. So glad Pennsylvania finally did something about it.

But let her finish here. This is great stuff. Too many black children have been suspended and missed what should be valuable instruction time because their hair worn in ways that are aligned with. their racial identity have been deemed a violation of school rules. I am a child growing up in the Virgin Islands with natural hair. Hold on for a second. Natural hair.

My favorite part about this is a guy in the last part of this clip who is standing behind him totally bald. Like is he? What about bald people discrimination? No one's not even talking about that. Not even talking about it. He's like, yeah, this isn't cultural. I just don't have any hair.

and he's like I'm going to the hair discrimination thing I want my picture there I want to be in the hair discrimination crowd hanging out behind Josh Shapiro as he's trying to win in 2028 and he is good for him for showing up yes for sure all right there's more your hair has been braised twist locks all my life that's all I know as you know I still have locks but wearing my natural hair was totally fine and all that I know as I open my salon and spoke to different clients. Clients that wear braids. That's telling me, Lorraine, I have to take these braids out.

I have a job interview. Or Lorraine, I have to cut my locks down because my job says too long. And the recent one was my client who says, Lorraine, they're talking about me. I have to do something. I have to cut my locks because of my job. You know, they're saying it's unprofessional to have locks. And I'm like, wow. Look, we know that this is an issue that dish proportionally affects black pens and

Wait, hold on, in dish proportionately? Guys. Like locks and natural braids or twists. And it can manifest in a number of different ways. This is such a core interest in Josh Shapiro. It's so authentic. Simply because of how you look. Or twist.

Getting passed over for a job because of the way they wear. And now you can't do that. Let's stop for a second. This is so insulting. This is so insultingly stupid. First of all, Josh Shapiro knows. nothing about what he's talking about here quite obviously he's just reading a piece of paper he does not know anything about this topic what i always find interesting about this is one thing that

we should like be clear about as whitey can we speak as whitey here pat official statement from the whites we don't care what your hair looks like not at all i i don't know why this impression came through none of us care yeah it's like someone saying hey you stop looking at my elbows all the time You're always looking at my elbows. You're always staring at my elbows. I'm not looking at your elbows, dude. I don't care about your elbows. Your elbows can look however they want to look.

I don't care. That's how I feel about the hair thing. I don't know anyone who cares what black people's hair looks like at all. I don't think anyone, I don't know anyone who would say, you know what? I was interested in hiring an African American, but only one with straight hair. I'm a huge racist that would only hire white people, but I'll make an exception for black people with straight hair. hair. Well, who is this person? I don't know. Who? What? What? Michelle Obama was on a similar kick last week. Oh, God. That's a big thing. She was talking

about how terrible it is that black women have to straighten their hair to please white people. We're not pleased. Who does? I don't care what your hair looks like. Nobody, to my knowledge, has ever said, you know what? Black people better straighten out their hair. or they're not going to get a job. Not with me, not in my company. I can't imagine it. The problem with the whole argument is, if you're that person, if you're a person who

would say that ridiculous thing, I would, of course, you need to straighten your hair out or I'm not going to employ because I don't like authentic African-American hair. If that's you, then you don't hire black people at all. Because you're probably have a problem with black people. Right. You're probably a racist.

And I guess that person could exist. I'm not saying there's nobody in America who feels. that way. There probably are people who feel that way. But like, if you're, the skin would be the thing that you're going to have to be. Certainly not rampant. And it's certainly not rampant. If you're already a racist, you're probably racist based on the skin color. And the hair being straight is not going to overwhelm that instinct of yours. Yeah. So it doesn't even make sense at the very core of it. Now, I'm trying to, stretching this to the completely ridiculous extreme. Is there a job in which certain hair is more appropriate.

Like, I don't know. You think about like Bob Marley's hair if he's like, I don't know, your chef? Like, I don't know. Is that, is it, I'm sure there's a way to put it up. Yeah. If you put a hairnet on. If you put a hairnet on me, fine. But there could be some restrictions there.

Yeah, for anybody. You should wear a hair net around food. And like I think too, like if you're thinking of a, let's look at a, if you're a banker or something, some high level job you're in suits all the time, there could be. I can't think of what it would be. but there could be a hair like for example I might say to someone who came in with a Mohawk and say

hey we're doing you know 10 million dollar deals here I don't think the Mohawk's going to work in these meetings I'm sorry about that now Clubber Lang had a Mohawk in Rocky 3 I don't know that it's necessarily a culturally African American hairdo I don't know the origins of it honestly because I've seen a lot of white people both whites and blacks wear

where that haircut but like it would be inappropriate for that job So is there something? None of the haircuts these people seem to have are even close to these lines. No. They all look very nice. And I mean,

there is a maintenance level for certain jobs that you have to hit. Yeah. That's not a racially insensitive thing. It's like if your hair is a complete disaster, then yeah, you know, it's got to be a problem. If, you know,

if you smell, if you, if you've got a mohawk, if you've got a, you know, if you have like, 80s, you know, hair metal, long,

flowing locks as a white guy, you know, I'm sorry. I don't know that like accounting necessarily is the right field for that haircut. Like, can you do something about it? Can you trim it up a little? I don't know that's, that's nothing to do with race. So there is, it's such a,

there's an immediate jumping to this. And like, I just feel like as white people, maybe we should communicate this more clearly. We don't care. We literally don't care. We don't really notice your hair all that much. I'm sure it's lovely. I don't mean to demean the way for you're putting into it.

Right. Why don't you notice my hair? Right. Why not? That's like when they say. Like, why, why don't you date trans women? Right. Well.

And it, you know, because it's gone from, you know, judging people by the content of their character rather than the color of skin. Well, now if you're, if you're colorblind, that's a bad thing. according to many a week you of course you should notice that that they're black or Hispanic or white or whatever because that's not even a thing anymore so they've changed the rules on us so many times it's hard to really know which way to go on that yeah and this is why of course i don't care about their rules yeah i don't and what i'm going to do is what i think is right and i i stick by i believe i didn't start believing in uh judging people as individuals based on some rule the left made for me.

I believed it because I think it's the right thing. It's the right way to handle people. I don't like thinking of people as members of groups. That's the left does. That's not what I do. I judge people by the content of their character. And how straight their hair is. No.

No, Pat. You added that addendum to that. Okay. You sure? I'm positive. That's not how I do it. And here's the thing. I know culture has changed a bunch of times.

You're right. Like they have made a bunch different new rules that we're all supposed to follow. I haven't followed any of them. I've decided, as I know you have, you make a decision based on what you believe is right. And then you maintain that position as long as you believe it continually is right. There might be a time you change your opinion. But if you believe in something like treating people as individuals, treating them based on their merit, not on whether their hair is wavy or not, then you just move on with your life and you don't listen to.

all the left wing nonsense when they changed the rules on you. That's the right way to live life, I believe. AAA 727 BECK. More coming up. Teach your kids right. Shoot.

Do you see they arrested? some supposed relative of Caroline Levin, which I think, you know, what does that say? That says it doesn't matter whose relative you have.

If you're here illegally, we're going to arrest you. And it doesn't matter. You're not even protected because your relative is the White House spokesperson. I think this person is her. brother's ex-wife is what I think. Because they describe... The brother's ex-wife. Yeah.

They describe her as the mother of Caroline Levitt's nephew, which I think would mean it was her brother's wife, right? This is her sister-in-law or former sister-in-law because they're not married. I don't think they're married anymore. And she hasn't talked to her in years, apparently. But... Yeah, so I don't know that it necessarily makes the point that... Maybe not.

I think they would go after someone they believed committed a couple of course. I think they would. I think they would, yeah. But I don't know that that proves it. If it was her mom. Right. And her mom was here illegally. And they went after her mom, then that would say it.

Yeah. Probably a little stronger than this does. I really do think we are now in the, there's an era that existed for a long time where, generally speaking, you didn't go after your political opponents. I would argue even when they were pretty obviously guilty, right? because you wanted to maintain this idea that it wasn't political. Oh, yeah. I think that era is dead.

Yeah, I think so too. By the way, we have the murderer. It was Joe Biden. Joe Biden murdered that era. Yeah, I go. And every other Democrat in that, in that vicinity when they went after Donald Trump and tried to throw. You know what this, you know what's going to happen? Over and over again.

You're going to set this off and there's going to be reciprocation here. And you're not going to like it. You're not always going to be in office. office and something's going to happen to you. And they just ignored that and went ahead anyway. And I think, you know, there are reasons for what President Trump are doing beyond it was done to him. But they did open a door here. And now people are walking through it.

So you made your bed. Now you have to lie in it. Sad story. It's a sad, sad, sad story. I do think it's bad for the country overall. But it is something that I think is. I think that whole thing is over. Yeah.

I think we're going to get this every single time one party comes in. They're going to do this type of thing to the other party. Not a great job. It sure looks that way. This is Glenn Beck. So we got an interesting story that may have been set right for a change. A lot of times these things just go the wrong way. And this one went the wrong way at first.

And then when they found out that a woman had one or a man had won a women's competition. They corrected it. Or at least they said they didn't know. We'll get into that. Coming up here in a few minutes. Who does who do the Eagles play this weekend? Philadelphia Eagles,

fresh off their completely ridiculous loss to the Dallas Cowboys face off against the 8 and 3 Chicago Bears on Black Friday. It's a tough one. You know the North Division of the NFC? Pretty good. Pretty good. Yeah, pretty good teams there. What's your vibe on the Packers this year?

I'm very confused by them. Yes, I would say I agree. They've beaten good teams and lost to really bad ones. Yeah. And sometimes they look like really awful. Yeah. Sometimes great. Yeah.

Very strange. I don't know what to make of it. Let's do it for Glenn today. Strongest women competition just happened in Arlington, Texas. Strongest woman in the world. And it was a man. I'll tell you about that coming up in 60 seconds. Yeah.

We love them. Had them for years now and holding up great and they're just fantastic. It's a really easy way to do it. So blinds.com. So the world's strongest woman was for a short time a man, a biological man. Now, if they're able to qualify for this, I think this would happen often, Pat. Like, if it's legal for men to be in the world-strongest women contest, I think men would do really well.

If you think so? Yeah. So are you saying that as a rule, men are generally stronger than women? If I'm going to do some generalization here. Yeah. Especially at the, let's put it at the very top end of the spectrum. Okay. Strongest man versus strongest woman?

Right. I'm going to go with a man. You're going to go with the man. Mm-hmm. I've seen... That's weird. Remember when ESPN used to run the world's strongest man

from like 1987 all day? Because they had no other programming to put on? Yes. I remember those guys. They carried really heavy things. I don't think women could do it. And lifted really heavy weights and things. Pulled buses with their teeth, I think.

Yeah. All I'd remember was really crazy. And I'd watched the same one. Like I knew some guy named Jorgelson was going to win it at the end. I'd still watch it anyway. Mm-hmm. Me too. Sven Jorgelson

He's going to try to lift An entire tractor trailer With his big toe He got it Everyone looks crazy Well the four people that are there go crazy And then the other guy is like Another win for Sven Jorgelson

Dang it I thought it was gonna I thought it was gonna be stronger than Sven this show Because I've been working out really hard No No it's always Sven Jorgelson He's always the guy that wins Well this time for the women

it was Jammie Booker. Jammie? Jammie Booker. Like one. Mike made a nickname for pajamas? Yes. Jammies? Jammie Booker.

Jammie Booker. He, she, they lifted something like 118 pounds more than the runner-up person. And then it turned out afterwards. Yeah, because that's a biological man. And so what they did was disqualified. him, her, and gave it to the runner up instead. And then promoted third place to second place. And so they fixed it.

I mean, when does that ever happen now? Yeah, that's great. It's incredible. They basically said they didn't know. They said they didn't. Huh? Yeah. Now, I will say, one of the things that trans people talk about a lot is like a trans day of

visibility. We want people to see us. We exist. And we want people to see us. And my response to that is always like, we, yeah, we see you. We're well aware that you're there. We notice every time. Uh-huh.

It's very, very obvious to us that you are there because usually when I see a guy in a skirt, stands out. It does. You know, it does. It's noticeable. Just a bit. So the visibility, really not your problem. I think the, I think you're arguing for, in theory, is the lack of visibility.

Like, you'd like to not be noticed. At least that's what I thought the issue was. now the theory is that they need to be more visible, which, again, you're doing a great job with it. You're incredibly visible. So in this situation, however, I did see the video, and I didn't immediately have that same reaction. Like, I didn't look at it. It's like, oh, that's definitely a guy. I mean, he's definitely a big, much bigger than the other participants, it seems.

Yeah. But I didn't necessarily know immediately. Did you? I did not. Okay. Like, I'm looking at the person now and I don't think I would have guessed. I don't know. It could have gone either way on it.

It wasn't like, oh, that's definitely a woman. Right. But I wasn't like, oh, that's definitely a dude. Here's a thing. This might shock you. But all of the women in the world's strongest woman competition are somewhat large. They're bulky. Yeah, they're a little bulky.

You got to have some bulk to lift heavy weights. Yeah, you got some meat on their bones. Okay. And you can tell they've been working out a little bit. Okay. And so they're hefty. Now, would you say as a rule, that every participant in the strongest women competition has to be a woman?

I wouldn't say that. Is it a requirement or is it something that we're just trying to like, we'd like it to be the case? No. I'm going to go a little stronger than that and say we'd like them all to be women. All of them. Yes. We're going to require them all to be actual biological women. Let me give you a polling term.

Margin of error. How comfortable are you? It's at zero. It's exactly zero. So all of them? All of them have to be women. If you let a few guys slip in, you're not comfortable with that at all. I'm not comfortable in the least with that.

See, you're a stickler. Not in the competition or in the locker room. Yeah, I'm a stickler for that. Call me insensitive to the men trying to get into the women's competition. But I'm going to extend that from not just the world's strongest women competition, but all women's competitions. tennis and your soccer badminton you're going to stand by this track and field i'm standing by it swimming uh you know i'm going to say let's do it exclusively with women all women's competitions

okay well you've heard that you've heard the hatred the ladies and gentlemen in america you've heard the hatred of pat gray you've heard it you've heard it and i'm sticking by it i feel like too there are some sports, I don't know, maybe like a flexibility sport, like certain gymnastics events or something where women might do better, right, than the guy. Maybe guys are really flexible like that. I think if I see a guy try to be flexible like that, I can feel the pain of it happening and I have to turn it off immediately. So I'm not 100% sure how that works. But if women have an advantage in that category, they shouldn't be able to go to the men's side. I don't know about you, Pat, I'm less worried about it the other way.

I am too. I haven't seen a single example of it yet. Well, I can give you a very baseline example. Okay. As you know, my son, Zach, he plays baseball. And he is, you know, plays pretty high level baseball, you know, travel team type stuff. And he is on a team that was playing in a tournament. This is now probably two years ago.

So I think it was, I think it was a 12-view. tournament. Yeah, I think it was 12 view. And we, which means 12 and under. Yes, 12 and under for the people who aren't constantly obsessed with youth baseball. And so you 12 and under. And first of all, that means that 11 year olds sometimes play in the 12 year old division. Oddly enough, there's a lot of rules that seem to justify 13 year olds also playing in the 12 view thing. And I don't understand that. It's like, wow, yeah, he's in another grade though. So, there's a number in the name of the league. It says 12 you. That is weird.

You means under. 12 or under. That's what it's supposed to be. And like, oh, yeah, but he, yeah, sure, he's 18 and he's playing in this league. But, yeah, he stayed back a bunch of years. But he's in sixth grade. So, I don't know why they have those exceptions, but that's a whole other story that I might complain about from time to time.

So my son, who plays in the league that is ages, he is in a tournament. And one of the best teams in this tournament is there. And we are walking, you know, his game's ending. We're walking over. He wants to watch. this this team play because they're kind of like you know one of the like legendary teams from the area that's i mean legendary might be a little strong but like the well-known team that wins a lot of these tournaments right and so we go up there and we they're the games starting and and uh and there someone has the radar

gun behind home plate and you know at this point i don't know 12 you they're they're probably like you know you're throwing like 50s in low 60s like the kids were throwing like pretty hard or probably in the 60s. Yeah. Every once in a while, you get someone in the mid-60s. The pitcher is hitting low 70s, like 72, 73. And I'm not really paying close attention, but I am noticing this. I'm like, wow, that's pretty fast.

Now, there's some people who throw that, but it's pretty rare that you'd see someone in the 70s, you know, in 12, you if I'm remembering all the numbers right in ages. So after a couple of minutes, I do eventually, you know, kind of look a little bit more detail and realize the pitcher is a female. This is, you know, it's boys baseball. it's a girl pitching. I would maybe say she's Samoan, you know, from that sort of background. What is they?

AAPI, Pacific Islander, maybe. Polynesian type. Maybe in that world. And she's firing it in there, man. Overhand, like this is a baseball. It's not softball. It's baseball. And she's firing it in there.

And she's shutting down this other really good team. And later in the game hits a over-the-fence home run. Wow. Over the fence home run. Now, I don't know what her career looks like as she gets older because the truth is they're going to catch up. They're going to catch up and they're going to pass her. She was, she was a, you know, she had a lot of strength. Yeah.

But at that age, sometimes you'll see that. She could play there and she did. And no one that I knew complained about it. Nobody was pissed. It wasn't about the fact even that it was a gender crossover. It was the competition. Yeah. You're taking advantage of it.

When you are a swimmer who is. you know, the worst swimmer on your team and then you're winning national championships in the other division, that's really where I think people get more angry about it. It's not, now, in addition to that, and in a much more serious area. I think the 13-year-olds in the 12 and under is a bigger deal. It's a bigger deal, I would agree. And even a much bigger deal than all of this is having the man, the boy come into the girl's bathroom and change with them.

That's completely ridiculous. And obviously when you get to that level, that's something. different. But like it's not, a lot of this is just based on fairness. Yeah. You know, girls should be able to have areas where they can compete and win. They shouldn't always lose to some guy who's decided for a couple weeks. He's a girl. And I say that as someone who has a daughter and at some point could be a victim of that. Yeah. Right? Yeah. She's in gymnastics is the big thing she's in. I would assume. Yeah. That at some point, this could be a something that happens. Well, that was Riley Gaines

problem. Right? She was, and that's why she's become so prominent as a spokesperson, really, for speaking out against men, competing against women. She actually was a victim of that. Yeah. Yes. And did you see the

big controversy with her and Pablo Torre over the past week? Do you know who Pablo Torres? No. He's a guy, he does a podcast, and And it's a podcast that has occasionally breaks some big news. He was the guy who broke the Clippers, Kawhi Leonard's story from a few, a couple months ago, which was that he was taking money, which is a great story if you haven't looked at this, Pat.

He was taking money from a company that is a, that was like a big green company that was like, you know, fake planting trees all over the world and taking it all this money. and taking in all this money. And then also just throwing millions of dollars at Kauai Leonard that very much looks like salary cap evasion, right? Like he just signed a contract with this green company. And then never did any work for it, never even tweeted about it. Yeah. I mean, at least try to cover your tracks.

Anyway, so occasionally I think he does some interesting work. But of course, as is typical in the media, especially sports media, everybody's liberal. so he's super, super liberal and did this big supposed expose, I guess, this week on Riley Gaines. I did not hear all the details of it, but what it amounted to, at least from what I read, because it was a long podcast, and I wasn't all that interested.

But the allegation was that she's made money since all of this happened. Oh, no. She finished in fifth place, and she would have, I guess, finished in fourth if it wasn't for Leah Thomas, I think, is the way that worked. Yeah. And normally she wouldn't be. She wouldn't be rewarded for that, right? She wouldn't have made millions of dollars off a finish fourth,

and now she's made millions of dollars, so she's bad or something. Again, I think what happened with Riley Gaines is she took a brave stand after this and made the best of a bad situation. Yeah. You know what? Has she made money since? And speaking gigs? Sure.

Of course she has. And she should. She basically took on the entire sports establishment and has been incredibly brave. Almost single-handedly. Yeah. I mean, she's been the only one. And it's been taking tons of death threats and harassment over it constantly online. And she spoke her mind and she said, this is unfair.

And not only that, she's improved the situation for people like my daughter. Right. Who might not have to face that situation because she took that stand. I'm glad she made a lot of money off of it. We should be incentivizing that type of behavior. Again, she made money on it because she became famous because she stood up. and with no promise at all of making money, spoke her mind.

Right. Could have gone the other way. That's not a controversy. Could have easily gone the other way. Where she could have been shunned every turn. Most, that did happen to a lot of people who did that. Yeah. And it has over time.

The fact that she was able to come out and make, she wound up instead of going into whatever she was going to go into as a normal job because probably wasn't going to, you know, swimming is not one of those things where you're making millions of dollars unless you're Michael Phelps. Right. So she winds up going into a normal job. job probably if this doesn't happen. But you know, it did happen. And she was able to be very brave, very smart. Like, you can also do this in the wrong way. You come out and say the wrong thing and even your side bails on you. She didn't. She did this the right way. She's spoken up bravely for a long time.

This is a great success story, something where she was targeted for something that she was wronged. She overcame it. She spoke out about it and has made a new career, a new path. Yeah. Yeah. Nothing wrong with that. That's a great story. It's not a bad one. Yeah. Triple 8. 727 B, E, C, we're coming up in a minute.

With the war in Ukraine, we've heard about a lot of people in both countries who are living through the nightmare of war. But there are also elderly Jewish people who are also trapped in this conflict facing unbearable poverty. Galena is a 96-year-old Holocaust survivor who has spent her life in the same village. She's sick. She's alone, and it's bitter cold. And today, like every day, she has to decide whether to spend what little money she has

on food or medication or heating. The Bible tells us when you bless elderly Jews living in poverty like Galena, you will receive blessings in return. Through the international fellowship of Christians and Jews and your generous donation, you can bring hope to the people in need. Your gift of just $25 will help provide a food box

packed full of life-saving essentials that will help feed an elderly person struggling to survive. Don't delay. Your gift today will help provide the life-saving food and hope that Galena and many like her desperately need. To rush your gift, call 888-488-48-IFC. that's 888488-48-48-435 or give online at glen for thefellowship.org. That's Glenn for the fellowship.org.

It's Pat and Stu for Glenn, AAA-727, B-E-C-K. So Campbell's Soup. Did you see what the executive of Campbell's Soup had to say about Campbell's Soup the other day? I did not. Oh, my God. I am not even an up-to-date at all about Campbell's Soup and the news revolving around Campbell's Soup. Yeah. He was talking about how it's, uh, genetically modified ingredients.

Okay. And, and, and, uh, and that the chicken is essentially laboratory grown. Uh, in the audio, it's, it's really, uh, is it, is it, is it a hot mic type of thing? It is. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Somebody recorded him in a meeting where he was saying, um, we have stuff is the word I'll

use for effing poor people who buys our stuff. No, no. I know buy Campbell's products barely. at all anymore. It's not healthy now that I know what the heck is in it. So he's talking about bioengineered meat. I don't want to eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer. Okay. So I'm thinking he's probably not long for a Campbell's Soup position. I know. I'm pretty sure they're not going to love him from now on. But are they bioengineered? The meat? Is it bioengineered? The chicken at like in chicken soup? I don't know. But he said it is.

A spokesperson for the company said, we're proud of the food we make, the people who make it. And the high quality ingredients that we make it with. The comments on the recording are not only inaccurate. They are patently absurd. So they seem to be denying that it's bioengineered, but he didn't specifically say our chicken is not bioengineered here. It's not grown in a lab. It's a bizarre story. It is a bizarre story. So, yeah. I've never heard an executive at a company like this go off on the product at that company. I don't think that I know of that I can remember that this has ever happened before. But Sue was filed by Robert Garza. This is against a result of a lawsuit. Yeah. Okay. Hired by Campbell's as a cybersecurity analyst in September

2024. Garza alleges that Campbell's executive Martin Valley made the offensive remarks during a meeting in November 2024, which was intended to discuss his salary. Right, yeah. Garza informed his manager about

the comments, but the manager did not encourage him to report the incident. Garza was then abruptly terminated from employment. So that's what causes this lawsuit. James Regan, Campbell spokesperson, said the company was not aware of the recording before it aired on WDIV on Thursday does not know if it's legitimate. Bally is one of the many vice presidents, so vice president of Campbell's.

But this is the other statement they released. They said the person alleged to be speaking on the recording works in IT and has nothing to do with how we make our food. Yeah, I love that. I love that. But he said it's on the label. So I haven't checked a Campbell's Soup label. So it says crap on the label?

This is crap for poor people is on every label? I don't think it says that. No. Whether it says it's bioengineered because you're supposed to have to put that on the label, I doubt that that's on the label. This is Glenn Beck. Holiday time is high crime season, but not all crimes should be addressed the same way. According to a 22 FBI stat, firearms are necessary less than 1% of the time.

Berna covers the other 99% of altercations, with the firepower that is necessary to incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. So next time you think you need lethal force, think of Burna. Start with Burna. B-R-N-A. I carry one myself. I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a Burna launcher. The new Burna Compact is the world's smallest, less lethal pistol, concealable anywhere. It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds that can stop an attack or cold for up to 40 minutes with 60 feet of range. You can confidently and effectively de-escalate a situation without the use of lethal force. No background checks legal in all 50 states.

Ships straight to your door, and Burnah is approved by the pros trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies. Visit Burnah, B-Y-R-N-A.com and find the right launcher for your family. B-Y-R-N-A.com. That's burnah.com. What's really going on with the banks, the border, and your kids' school? Find out at glenbeck.com. Be clear, too, by the way, this Campbell Soup story, it's a lawsuit from a disgruntled employee. Now, are they alleging maybe that that was AI? I have not heard that defense.

They are saying that they don't know. They're not aware of the tape. They don't know if it's real. So it makes it sound like it might have been AI. But even they're saying even the person alleged to be saying it has nothing to do with the food production, which is kind of key as well. Yeah, that is key. And of course, any of these organizations have people who, of course you can find an employee that doesn't like what the company is doing. It is disgruntled.

Yes. That's not a not all that notable. So again, if you like Campbell's soup, you're probably going to be fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's kind of a crazy story. I've eaten a lot of Campbell soup in my life. Used to eat their chunky soup all the time.

That was right. They make that, yeah. Delicious. Yeah. It used to be every other ad. When I was single, that's what I lived on was Campbell's chunky soup. Yeah. You were single at one point.

I was. I feel like you were married at birth. That's in my mind. That was, you just got an arranged marriage. It feels like it now. the beginning. Yeah. At birth and it's just been ever since.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. I'm sure that it feels like to her. It's 40 years. Yeah, it feels like that to her. She's like, oh, gosh. Four years. Wait, this year?

40 years? Yeah. Well, congratulations. Thank you. That's a big achievement. Yeah. Yeah. That's really amazing.

I know. It really is. Mm-hmm. Does you already have your anniversary? We did. What did you guys do? It was a big, we went out to dinner and that was about it.

You are. Like, we've done this 40 times. You know? Well, you did. If I remember right, have a big trip recently, didn't you go away for, was it a Mexico or something? Yes. We went to Mexico. That wasn't related to the anniversary.

No, but it should have related it. It could have related to it. It relates to it now. By the way, that was in advance of the anniversary that's coming up. That's where we're going to Mexico. Next time you talk about that trip, we'd be like, hey, remember on our anniversary trip when we blah? And she was like, what do you mean our anniversary trip? Oh, yeah.

That was part of her. Did I not say? Come on. You know that. That was part of the anniversary to put all that together. Because we went to we went to, uh, we went to, uh, we went to Disney and Universal too, uh, this year. So we've done,

we've done a ton of stuff. So, uh, we covered it. We go. You know what I mean? We covered it. Wow, the romance from you, Pat. It's incredible. It's impressive. It's impressive.

It's, it's incredible. Uh, well, we are, are you thinking about do you, are you the type of person that has a Christmas, uh, gift? picked out, thought about yet for the wife. Are you in that? That hasn't even crossed my mind. Not even crossed my mind. Hey, honey, remember when we went on that Christmas trip to Mexico?

That Christmas anniversary trip. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That was a great trip that I got for you back then. Well, I mean, you could go always take care of this on Black Friday. We do have the Black Friday sale going on, by the way, at glenbeck.com. Go to glenbeck.com. Click the name shop. Click that shop link and you will get it.

Use the code, Glenn. I don't know if you see that. No, it's just glenbeck.com. Click shop and save. Okay. Black Friday is one of those things that it bothers me every year because there is a slew of stories. I've already read a couple of them that are complaining about how more stores are open on Black

Friday. They're complaining about that? Yeah, they're always like, oh, these stores are open on Black Friday. They're starting to open on Thanksgiving. Yeah. And we can't have them opening on Thanksgiving. People are all, it's all about commerce and they're spending time with our families and, and how dare they?

These stores open on Thanksgiving. And I get it. The sentiment, there's some part of it I like, right? We should want to spend time with our families instead of, you know, going out and spending money at a store. I get the concept behind that. But I feel like it really does not.

That argument does not encapsulate the actual real world. Number one, what if you don't like your family? Okay. Right? You know, it's nice if you have a family. I have a family I really love spending time with. Not everybody has that. Right.

A lot of people think their family sucks. And if your family sucks getting out of the house and going to a store might be a great thing. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Secondarily, you know, a lot of people might not have this big family Thanksgiving. Maybe to them getting double and triple pay for a holiday is something they're happy about. Right?

Yes, I understand some people might be thinking to themselves. I don't want to go to work on Thanksgiving or Black Friday. And I'd much rather to stay home with my family. And I'm sure those people do exist. However, there's a lot of people on the other side of that, too, who are thinking I'd like to work an eight-hour shift and get paid for 20 hours or 24 hours. That sounds great. And we never think about them.

And then I also don't understand why retail employees are the only people who get this benefit. it. Like, I want to turn my lights on on Thanksgiving. At some point, the sun will go down and I want to turn my lights on. There's plenty of people at the power company who still have to go to work. And no one cares about them at all. No one cares about any. It's only retail employees we care about having it on Thanksgiving. The people who work at, you know, I flip on the football game, all the people working at the stadium, we don't care about them at all. We don't. We don't care. Screw those people. They have to go to work. screw them.

Screw the people who work at the television station that's covering it and bringing in your house. Screw them. Screw the people at the power company. Screw the people at the heating company that are heating your home during Thanksgiving. All those people, they don't get to see their families. The poor guys who are making mere millions playing the football game. Yes. They're working on Thanksgiving as well.

I would say, you know, some people have made this point. Modern day slavery. That's what we're talking about. That's what it is. You should be able to make your own choice as to whether. you go to work or not. And if the people require you to go to work and you don't want to, you have the right to go find another job. But the company does not have to coddle you for your holidays. I know that sounds bad, but it's like the truth is, if they find that it's good for their

business and they want to do it, they should be able to. If a company is employee focused and thinks, you know what, we're going to sacrifice some profits on Thanksgiving and we want our employees to be able to stay home, that might be something that we're going to. That might be something that works for them, though I will say there are a lot of employees who are thinking to themselves, you know, actually, I don't know, fat Uncle Dave, I'd rather, much rather just be at work

and make a bunch of money, especially when they're going to pay me holiday pay than spend another time hearing some conspiracy theory from Fat Uncle Dave, right? You know, he's the one that's telling me that Trump is a fascist Russian asset. I don't want to hear any more stories from Uncle Dave. I just want to

go to work. I'd much rather be there and deal with sane people who are coming out to buy things on the holiday and wanting to get away from their families. So I just feel like every year we get these stories about how evil commerce is. The bottom line of this is it's an anti-capitalist pitch. It's supposed to make all these companies look mean. And the fact that you want to go out and spend money on a holiday is up to you. We should not make that decision for companies, employees, employees, shoppers.

I don't understand why we feel the need to jump into everybody else's business, every Thanksgiving, and tell people whether they should be allowed to open their stores or not. I was against that during COVID, and I'm against it again. Yeah. That's a good point. It's a good point. Have you noticed also that on Black Friday,

it doesn't really start at 4 in the morning anymore? Or if it does, I guess there's no. I mean, Jackie's not part of that. She used to be. She used to like to get up and go. Early? I don't hear about that. Maybe it's just our family, I don't know. Does Lisa get up and go to the store at four in the morning? I don't remember her ever doing it. I did have my aunt and my grandma used to do it really early, like before I would get up. I don't know if it's four. I don't think that's a thing much anymore because the sale lasts all day and you just keep it going. As we've seen with the scam of a Black Friday sale from Glenbeck.com, it's currently Wednesday.

That's true. I mean, almost every product we talked about today doing commercials and stuff, they have Black Friday things going on. They do it early. Yeah. And they also, a lot of so much of this stuff is online now. That's true. You know, the overwhelming majority of people don't, like, rush out to the stores to wait in line to buy that one product anymore, I guess. But it's still a huge shopping day. It's still the biggest shopping day of the year. I will say that Kexie cookies go on sale on Black Friday.

You didn't scam people. Did not scam people. It is not happening today. So you're saying today, you're going to pay like triple. You're going to pay. Today, they're hiring the prices. Right. They're raising prices.

No. You'll pay $300 a box today. But on Friday, you'll get 20% off. Okay. And Cyber Monday. And then I think we announced a whole bunch of sales. So you like lightning sales. So you can check that out online.

You can sign up for those. But yeah, we're waiting until Friday. Where would you go to sign up for something like that? Well, you go to KXE.com, K-E-K-S-I.com. The best for you. That's the best of the world. They're awesome. I will say awesome.

And you will be the star of any holiday party. If you do, as I say. and Pat, I have a recommendation for your company right now. Okay. I want you to think about this. I want you to internalize it. All right. I want you to think about maybe going along and making this product.

Okay? Mm-hmm. An official Kexi cookie cookie splitter. It's a good idea. Where it's like a circle. Yeah. And you go down and you press down on it. Like I have one of them for apples.

Do you have the apple thing? I do. I love that thing. I do. It goes into a million different slices. Yeah. Right. Make one of those for Kexi.

And you put it. top of the cookie. Wouldn't need to cord the cookie. You wouldn't need to do that. Although, not a bad idea because then the person making the cuts can just eat the cores and then just put out the slices. But cut it into like four slices. I would say if you want to make an eight optional, I would consider it.

Because sometimes it's even better to have what you can do one eighth of the cookie, but at least want quarters. Okay. And send these to people with the cookies. You know, like a little upcharge or something. I would totally pay the upcharge. Yeah, I like it. Because you go there because what I wind up doing,

and this is going to make you a star of every holiday party. You buy a box of kexie cookies. They come in. You cut them into fourths with either the kexie provided cookie cutter or your own knife or cookie cutter of your own. And then you make them in a nice little platter. You arrange them in a nice little platter situation so that people can come up and just sample a bunch of different flavors.

Right. You will be the star of every holiday party. A really good idea. It is awesome. I like it. So if this happens, a small kickback to me for each one sold would be appropriate. I'm just saying, I'm just saying because it's my idea.

It's now on national radio. People know. Works. It works for me. There you go. I didn't see. It wasn't a commitment. It wasn't really a commitment there.

That's unfortunate. But I do think. I didn't feel like an absolute hardcore commitment on my part. No. Huh. It didn't. It didn't feel contractual. That's really weird.

Oh, no. Oh, no. Yeah. Not untrue, but very weird. A wise man once said. Trust in God and always keep watch on the gate. I don't know about you, but that sounds like a solid plan to me. This is Glenn Beck.

It's Pat and Stuferglit today. We started the hour talking about the strongest woman in the world who was a man. And when the competition officials found that out, they disqualified that person and gave the title to the runner up. Well, Tish Heiman confronted Eric Swalwell, who is about to run for governor. He's already basically running for governor of California. And there's a woman named Titish Heimann who is speaking out on behalf of women and saying that, you know, trans people, men don't belong in women's locker rooms and in women's sports.

and so on. And she wasn't well received really by Eric Swalwell. Check this up. It's cut six. There's going to be men allowed in the women's room anymore. We need to know. No woman should be harassed in a locker room. Answer straight.

Are there going to be women? Are you against men in women's locker rooms and sports? That's all you need to answer. I'm telling you. I don't know. I know. It's happening all around America. There are 45 women.

There are 45. in the women's prisons right now, raping them, picking them on like chicken. Yep. But men, men are not women, and they're raping women. So I don't get you on the Democrat side, the Republican side. We need to be on the women's side, people. It's happening to our girls. It's happening to our women.

And I'm here to let everyone know that this is happening. Open your life. I'm telling you. I have millions of people behind black people who they're using our civil rights to push them. If you want to be the governor, you need to do something about it because I promise you this. I will not be the last. You see of Tish. Hi.

Okay? Thank you. All right. I want to hear about you. You're right handsome. So great. Who? There are no trans kids.

There are just children. Stop transforming children. No one can make a decision that young. When I was wrong. Right. This is utterly fantastic. Is that great? So great.

It's wrong. It's wrong. It's abuse. Don't transduce. It's abuse. It's just kids. It's so great. There's only men and women.

Use your brain. Stop with this. Malibu. That is fantastic. I mean, what a brave woman. To go into that crowd, who are obviously Eric Swalwell supporters, and be so strong and so confident.

about what she's saying there. It's just fantastic. First of all, Pat, I have to fact-check you here. There's probably 75-80 people in this room. There's no way they're all Eric Swalwell supporters. There are no way. I hope you're right. I really hope you're right.

I mean, he's not. First, he's so stupid. There's no way he's going to win that race. Is he? I mean, a Democrat will win it. Who else is going to win? There's other Democrats that are more prominent than Eric Swalwell that are already in the race.

I haven't. I don't remember. remember who they are, but they're hopefully going to beat him. Isn't Katie Porter in that race? There's a couple people in that race. Yeah, I think she is. But I don't think Eric Swalwell is going to win. He's also America's dumbest congressman.

Yes. But she's great. Awesome. And she just takes over the event. Oh, my gosh. She's hosting. That was fantastic. All right.

All right. Well, have a great Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving. This is Glenn Beck.
