Here's How the Democrats Can FORCE Biden to Drop Out | 7/18/24

This episode discusses potential strategies that Democrats might use to pressure President Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, focusing on internal party dynamics and media influence.

1. Democrats, particularly party leaders, are increasingly concerned about Biden's ability to win against Trump.
2. There is speculation about how Democrats might pressure Biden to step down, using both public and private tactics.
3. The hosts humorously suggest that Biden should resist pressure from party elites and stay in the race.
4. The episode critiques the Democratic Party's handling of the primary process, questioning its commitment to democratic principles.
5. There is a focus on the potential consequences of Biden remaining the nominee, including the impact on down-ballot races.

1: Introduction

The episode opens with a light-hearted discussion about the current political climate and the challenges Biden faces within his own party. Glenn Beck: "It's a new day. Stand up straight, Joe!"

2: Party Pressure

The hosts dive into the various ways party leaders might try to pressure Biden to step down, focusing on Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. Patton Stu: "You're gonna let Nancy Pelosi come in there and tell you that's not your job anymore?"

3: Biden's Resilience

This chapter explores the idea of Biden standing firm against the pressure, with the hosts encouraging him to channel the spirit of resilience. Glenn Beck: "Where's that Robinette family fight, Joe?"

4: The Irony of Democracy

The hosts critique the Democratic Party's approach to the primary process, pointing out the irony in its actions versus its proclaimed values. Patton Stu: "This is the party of democracy?"

5: Potential Outcomes

The discussion shifts to what might happen if Biden stays in the race, including potential losses in the general election and down-ballot races. Glenn Beck: "Imagine the storybook where you push through all of this resistance."

6: Conclusion

The episode wraps up with a reflection on the larger political landscape and a call for Biden to make his own decisions despite the pressures. Glenn Beck: "Stay in the race, Joe. Don't go anywhere."

1. Stay True to Your Convictions: Like Biden, when facing pressure, stay true to your beliefs and don't be swayed by external forces.
2. Understand the Power Dynamics in Your Workplace: Recognize who holds power and influence, and how they might use it to impact your decisions.
3. Be Prepared for Criticism: When in a leadership position, be ready for both public and private criticism, and plan how you'll handle it.
4. Evaluate Your Legacy: Consider how your decisions today will affect your legacy and how you are remembered in your field.
5. Leverage Public Perception: Like the Democratic Party might, use media and public perception strategically to achieve your goals.

Things are not looking good for Biden's candidacy. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) are reportedly pressuring Joe to drop out of the race. Filling in for Glenn, Pat and Stu give their thoughts on allowing Pelosi and Schumer to dictate Biden's choices. Are Biden's current dropping poll numbers due to a temporary bump caused by the assassination attempt against Trump? Pat and Stu ponder how the Democrats could force Biden to drop out of the race. Pat and Stu break down the shocking failures of the Secret Service that almost cost Trump his life. Pat and Stu take calls from listeners to get a sense of their views of Trump's near-assassination as more questions arise about the Secret Service's failures. JD Vance has officially accepted Trump's VP position, so Pat and Stu give their opinions on the critical pick. The media was quick to dig up old quotes from Vance in an attempt to disgrace him. Pat and Stu discuss one of the most shocking and overlooked parts of Biden's interview with NBC's Lester Holt.

It's a new day. I turn around.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Patton Stu
Sure is. With Patton, Stu today for Glenn, 88727 Beck.

People encouraging, I mean, including influential people in the Democrat party. Nancy Pelosi, Chucky Schumer encouraging Joe Biden to step aside.

Now Stu definitely takes issue with that.

Glenn Beck
I'm fired up on this one.

Patton Stu
And he's, he's wearing his pro Joe Biden t shirt today.

Glenn Beck
It's Joe Biden.

Patton Stu
Joe Biden, elderly man with a poor memory t shirt.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, it's maybe not as the most pro Biden shirt, but I'm with him, right? I'm with Joe.

Patton Stu
With Joe.

Glenn Beck
Not for the general election, but I want him to stand.

Stand up. Listen to the music, Pat. It's telling him to stand up right now.

Patton Stu
It is.

Glenn Beck
Don't let Nancy Pelosi push you around. Let Chuck Schumer tell you what to do.

Patton Stu
Who are they?

Glenn Beck
You're the president of the United States. Stand up, Joe.

Patton Stu
Stay the race that much more in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
And maybe get some sleep as well before you make that speech.

Look, if you need some sleep, you want to do something about it, you want to maybe fix the problems that you're having, maybe that's been the issue with Joe this whole time. Maybe it's just been a sleeping issue. Well, relief sleep is here. And look, it's one of those things where you can make a difference. This is where this can really, really change what you're doing. It's from the makers of relief factor. And we've been talking about it as relief factor sleep for a while. But they talk about z factor.

Patton Stu
All right, so, stu, your point is stand and fight. Yes, it's a time to rise.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Patton Stu
If I'm not mistaken, the song tells.

Glenn Beck
You what to do. Joseph Robinette Biden junior.

Patton Stu
Stand.

Glenn Beck
Stand up, fight. And I.

This is a bit tongue in cheek, because I don't want Joe Biden to be president for another second. And I think we're in danger of nuclear catastrophe every second he is president. But I will say this.

You're gonna let freaking Nancy Pelosi come in there and tell you that's not your job anymore?

Patton Stu
I'm not going to.

Glenn Beck
You're gonna let Chuck Schumer come in and tell you the president of the United States, you are no longer gonna be the nominee. Are you gonna let Pat Adam Schiff no come in there?

Patton Stu
I'm not. And tell you I'm not letting Adam Schiff in the building?

Glenn Beck
I think really, that's much. That's a better judgment.

You're gonna let him come in there and tell you you need to leave the White House? You no longer get to be the nominee of the party that you won the primary for, that you stood on stage as the nominee.

Patton Stu
14 million people voted.

Glenn Beck
14 million people voted.

Patton Stu
Just gonna discount their will.

Glenn Beck
You're just gonna throw those people out?

Patton Stu
What about democracy?

Glenn Beck
We are supposed to be the party of democracy, and here we are throwing out the votes because a couple of elites want this guy out.

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
No.

Patton Stu
I say no.

Glenn Beck
Here's the thing. No.

Abso. You tell them no, Joe. You know what you do? You get up there like Leo DiCaprio and Wolf of Wall street. And you're saying I'm not going anywhere.

Patton Stu
There you go.

That's right.

Glenn Beck
The show goes on.

That's what you do.

Patton Stu
But if you're Joe Biden, you say it like this anyway.

I've said too much. That's what you say. But say it, dammit. Say it. Say it.

Glenn Beck
I think you should.

Hey, Nancy, you want out of this? You come over here while I have Covid. And I'll tell you exactly a peace of mind. What I have right now, you come over here.

Patton Stu
We've got all kinds of video of him breathing in people's faces. With COVID too. I mean, suboptimal. Get out of people's faces.

Glenn Beck
Stop with the thing.

Patton Stu
Stop.

Glenn Beck
Stop trying to prove to everybody that you're, you're, you know, you're on top of things.

Patton Stu
Virile and take a week. Vivacious. And he could, he's agile and he could go anywhere and do any event.

Glenn Beck
What. Who are you? What do you need to prove you're the president of the United States?

Patton Stu
Don't prove it. You don't have to. You've already proven.

Glenn Beck
I bring you back into the corner of Rocky Three's second fight with Rocky Balboa.

Patton Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
And in the. They're in the corner and. And Clubber has come out and he's tried to just destroy Rocky.

And his, his, his corner guy says you're. Don't try to take him out with one punch. You're the champ.

Use your head.

Patton Stu
Right?

Glenn Beck
It's the same thing with Joe Biden. He's the president of the United Freaking States.

Patton Stu
Use your head.

Glenn Beck
Use your head.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
It's your job. It's your nomination.

Just do your best. As you said, you can look back at this, even if you lose by 27 points and say, did you do your best?

Did you do your best, Joe?

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
And if the answer to that is yes, you don't let Nancy.

Patton Stu
You needn't hold your head down at all. No, you hold your head high. Chin up, my friend.

Glenn Beck
Chin freaking up. And I will say this. You know one thing about Nancy Pelosi. She's older than you. You're gonna let Nancy Pelosi tell you you're too old while she's still in Congress?

Patton Stu
Nope.

Glenn Beck
Where's that Robinette family fight?

Where is the pushback? Joe, you've overcome so much in your life.

Every time, over and over again they've told you you can't do it. And what have you showed them?

Patton Stu
It's proven I'm wrong. Every time. Prove them wrong.

Glenn Beck
Every time.

I mean, you're a man with incredibly limited abilities and became president of the United States.

That's the american story right there.

Patton Stu
His football skill.

Glenn Beck
His what? His football skill.

Patton Stu
What? I'm. My microphones gone.

Glenn Beck
His microphone is.

They. Pelosi's doing that, too. They don't want this message out there. They're shutting down Pat Gray to keep you out of office.

Patton Stu
Hello.

Glenn Beck
There you are.

But you won't let them, right? Just like Pat with a microphone. He didn't say, I'm not going to talk for the rest of the show.

Patton Stu
I didn't.

Glenn Beck
He just kept pushing through it.

Patton Stu
I did.

Glenn Beck
I really did stuff you did.

Patton Stu
And look what happened. I'm on the air.

How about that?

Glenn Beck
These are the times when, when real american heroes step up and they keep the nomination they earned fair and square with a couple of rule changes to push everyone out of the primary.

And this is where they step up. And you know what? Maybe you do lose by 1820 points.

Patton Stu
So.

Glenn Beck
So what did you fight for? What is right, Joe?

Patton Stu
And hopefully the answer is yes.

Glenn Beck
Whatever. I don't care. Whatever.

Patton Stu
Yes.

Glenn Beck
Stay in the, stay in the race.

Patton Stu
Absolutely.

Glenn Beck
Don't go anywhere you don't need to.

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
And I really, and I. There's a part of me, part of this is very sarcastic, and I do think that Joe Biden would have a much worse chance of winning than anyone, literally anyone else on the planet. So this is why I wanted him to stay in the polls.

Patton Stu
Show it. Right now.

Literally every candidate they're talking about outperforms him.

Glenn Beck
It's unfair to do this right now.

Patton Stu
It is. It is.

Glenn Beck
But, Pat, his opponent just took a bullet. You can't look at polls right now. It's unfair to look at polls right now. This is ridiculous. We all understand, of course, President Trump is going to get a bump in the polls after what happened this past weekend. That's, don't let Nancy and Chuck manipulate you into dropping out of this race.

But I say there is part of me that's like I would be.

I would. Literally, the first thing Nancy Pelosi sees when she walks into the door of my office is the middle finger. That is the first thing she sees walking in.

Screw you. You're going to come in. I just won the primary.

You've been telling everybody I was fine for three and a half years. Now you're going to turn on me because I'm down by three points in the national polls.

Patton Stu
And I had one bad night.

Glenn Beck
One bad night. One. That's all I want.

Patton Stu
Bad night. It's all he's had.

Glenn Beck
He's done 22 events since.

Patton Stu
Right. And he's been brilliant at all of them.

Glenn Beck
Sure, he infected most of the audience with COVID Brilliant.

Patton Stu
But yes, along the east coast now has Covid.

But don't worry about that.

Don't worry about it.

Glenn Beck
I mean, I wouldn't you, I think I really would be that way. I really would be the only person I've ever seen who's withstood this much pressure.

It was Rod Blagojevich.

Do you remember him? He, he stayed in there to the last freaking day. He, I'm serious. This is true. Legitimately had a 4% approval rating and stayed in office. He was like, I don't care. I'm staying right here.

Patton Stu
And he literally did. Yeah, he did.

Glenn Beck
He didn't care. That's the sort of, that's the sort of energy Joe Biden needs right now. It's got to be difficult because they are coming at him with, it's his.

Patton Stu
Own party, really own party and his own media. Republicans are staying out of it. They're like, on the sidelines.

The Democrats. Right.

Glenn Beck
It's his own party and it's his own media. And like, I don't know if I'm president of the United States, I think I make the decision that the media and a bunch of elite politicians are not going to tell me. And the american people and the Democrats who voted, who's going to be this nominee? No, you don't have that power. They're like Nancy Pelosi behind the scenes supposedly has said she will do everything in her power to get him off the ticket. Tell Nancy Pelosi everything in her power is nothing. She has no power. She has no power over you, Joe. You stay if you want to stay.

Patton Stu
She's not even speaker of the House anymore. Speaker one.

Glenn Beck
No.

And like Hakeem Jeffries is, we didn't even mention his name. Nancy Pelosi has, by the way, demeaned this black man by taking over all of his power. He's the speaker of this, of the House, and she's the one pulling all the strings. Why is that?

She has not. But I mean, it is true. She's got no power in the situation. The only power she has is the power in your brain that you're giving her. She's a giant zilch in this situation. Stopped acting like she runs the country. She doesn't. You do, Joe. You do.

You can do this.

And imagine the storybook where you push through all of this resistance and you remain the nominee on the top of the ticket, and then, you know, history will write some stuff about what happens in the election. Whatever, whatever, whatever.

Patton Stu
You know, don't let that bother you. That's not the point.

Glenn Beck
No.

Patton Stu
The point right now is to stick to your guns.

Glenn Beck
That's exactly it.

Patton Stu
That's the point.

Glenn Beck
That's the point. Stick to your guns.

Patton Stu
It's not about what happens in November. On November 5. No, it's not about that. It's about, do you have the will to see this through?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Are you strong enough to be our man?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Sheryl Crow once said, are you strong enough to be my man?

Glenn Beck
That is what she.

Patton Stu
Show me.

Glenn Beck
That's what she.

Patton Stu
Show me.

Glenn Beck
Show me.

Show me. You've been talking about how you are the party of democracy. Are you the party of Nancy Pelosi making all the decisions?

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
Are you the party of Chuck Schumer making decisions? Are you the party Adam Schiff?

Patton Stu
Those are like Trump dictators.

Glenn Beck
Trump dictators, right?

Patton Stu
You anti democracy people.

Glenn Beck
You said, you said democracy mattered to you, Joe.

Patton Stu
Prove it. Doesn't prove it.

Glenn Beck
What do they vote for? Did they vote for Adam Schiff?

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
To be president of the United States. Did they vote for Nancy Pelosi? Did they vote for Hakeem Jefferson?

Patton Stu
I'm sorry.

Glenn Beck
No, no, I didn't think so.

Patton Stu
They voted for Joe.

Glenn Beck
They voted for Robin. Joe Biden. Overdose. Marianne Williamson. When they had that choice, they chose him. They could have chosen her.

Patton Stu
They could have.

Glenn Beck
They could have chosen, by the way, Dean Phillips, who ran his entire campaign, saying exactly what was going to happen in advance, and they ignored him.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
He gave you an option. He said, some people are saying Joe Biden's too old. We love his policies. He's been great for three and a half years. But we need to pass the torch to a new generation. Dean Phillips was there to give you that exact message in the primary. And the people decided they wanted Joe.

And are you going to deny them what they asked for?

Patton Stu
Joseph, I sure.

Glenn Beck
Joseph Robinette Biden junior. Are you going to deny them what they voted for?

Patton Stu
What about the winner in Guam? What about him? They could have. They could have made him their nominee.

Glenn Beck
The Guam guy.

Patton Stu
The Guam guy whose name I can't remember. Ryan something or other, if I remember correctly. Maybe I don't.

Glenn Beck
But the Guam guy, he was there.

Patton Stu
Could have been your nominee.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Not just Guams.

Glenn Beck
Guam looked at the situation and found a different answer.

But everyone else was on. On board for you, Joe.

Think about what? You've done the inflation Reduction act. You're going to take that guy out of office, the guy who passed the inflation Reduction act. Really?

Patton Stu
No, they don't. They don't want you can't do that. Can't do it. All right. Triple 8727 Beck. More in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
I hope he gets word of this segment and is, oh, I'm sure he's.

Patton Stu
Listening right now and he's just fired up and ready to go.

Glenn Beck
Actually, I kind of hope he doesn't because he might put together. He wouldn't be able to put together. He'd think that he'd hear that and be like, I gotta stay in. People want me to stay in, right?

Patton Stu
I think that people have spoken.

Glenn Beck
Let me talk to you about simplisafe. Imagine leaving your house every day to go to work and not worrying that someone's going to break in while you're gone and rob you blinden.

Patton Stu
I think I confused Guam with american samoa. I think it was american samoa that joe lost, wasn't it?

Glenn Beck
So the people of guam spoke and they said they wanted joe biden.

Patton Stu
Joe Biden, too. Wow.

Glenn Beck
Just another, I mean, american samoa. You can just blow that off. Joe, think about guamdhehehehehehehehehe. Think about the people.

Patton Stu
Think about it like hank johnson was thinking about it. That one time.

Glenn Beck
What was he thinking?

Patton Stu
My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.

We don't anticipate that now. The dumb american general wasn't anticipating that.

Glenn Beck
No.

Patton Stu
I mean, you see, this wasn't thinking ahead.

Glenn Beck
Sometimes our military has had issues where they don't anticipate what's coming around the corner. And Hank Johnson, by who? By the way, and this might not be a point in the favor of my argument, but Hank Johnson sticking with Joe Biden, he's made public comments saying, I'm with Joe. All right, so that man with the intellect that you just heard is with Joe Biden. Are you going to let him down, too, Joe?

Patton Stu
Sure hope not. I sure hope.

Glenn Beck
Speaker one. I sure hope not stay in this race to the very end. Why? I want Joe Biden watching those returns roll in on election night. He deserves to see what they say. And who knows what they'll say. Anything can happen.

We were like, oh, again, that's not.

Patton Stu
The focus of this discussion. It's not the point.

Glenn Beck
No. Do you really believe those polls, Joe? Who knows? They're wrong all the time. They're wrong all the time.

Patton Stu
He's mentioned that he has multiple times.

Uh, so he's got nothing to worry about.

Glenn Beck
Nothing to worry about. I've been watching some of these polls roll in and, you know, look, there are numbers there.

There's the sets of numbers.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
That represent values.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
You know what, what about your values, Joe?

Patton Stu
Are the polls really bad right now for him? Because I, there, actually, I will say it wasn't that, it wasn't that bad.

Glenn Beck
Honestly. This is true. Is not that bad. It's being completely over blown and it should be. And some level, I'm scared. The, in reality on the other side of like, why isn't it so bad? But I will say we haven't seen much at all since this, since the assassination attempt. You do expect a bump here. And I will say, if I'm in the Biden White House and there's the four people who are still defending him staying there, will, I think, have a good argument to say you can't look at this right now. Yeah, I mean, we just had an assassination attempt on my opponent. Of course he's going to get a bump, but it will clear up. I do think, that the, whatever bump Trump gets out of this, which I think will be, I don't think it'll be huge, but when he does get it, I think it'll come back to Earth. You know, back in 1981, way to go with Reagan getting shot. He got. He went from 60 to, I think, 68% approval rating after he got shot. So got an eight point bump and it was completely gone in three months.

Patton Stu
Wow. That's interesting, though, that people liked him more.

Liked him more because he got shot.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, there was a bug.

Patton Stu
Sympathy.

Glenn Beck
It's sympathy.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And so there's those people who are kind of on the fence on the person might come now. I think there's fewer people on the fence of Donald Trump than there were of Ronald Reagan as he just started his administration. That's number one. Number 219 81. A little different of a media environment, you know? You know, three months is a long time these days. I mean, I feel like they've totally moved off of the shooting. Like, I mean, you look at the coverage, like, yeah, there are some stories, there is some developments. We'll get into them today. But, like, they're kind of back on JD Vance and they're on to will Biden get removed. Like it's act. It's as if we're not, what, five days after the president of the United States, former president, almost got shot on live television, did get shot on live television, but somehow survived.

We are in a different media environment. So I think he has a legit argument on the polls to say, don't worry, I'm down by a couple of points we'll make. We'll come back. Believe in yourself, Joe Wolf of Wall street. Stand up there, pound your chest. You can do it.

Don't pound too hard because it might collapse just as a safety trip. Okay, so how comfortable are you with the way things are right now? Are you worried about the state of our nation, maybe the upcoming election, maybe what's downstream and the consequences of what that election is? Are you paying attention to what the us dollar is doing around the world? Did you know, for instance, that the Saudi, in Saudi Arabia, they recently did not renew their petrodollar agreement with the United States? That used to be something Glenn would talk about all the time. If this ever happens, we're in big trouble.

Patton Stu
Well, it's kind of happening.

Glenn Beck
So how comfortable are you with all of this? Probably not that comfortable. You need to generate and create security around the money that you have. And the choice is obvious. Your wealth is, you know, only as secure as you make it. So go with Lear capital.

Glenn Beck
Beck got a an update on the Biden situation from CNN senior White House correspondent MJ Lee. All right, she says Nancy Pelosi privately told Biden in a recent conversation that polling shows that the president cannot defeat Trump and that Biden could destroy democrats chances of winning the House in November if he continues seeking a second term, sources tell CNN.

But Biden responded by pushing back and being defensive about the polls, telling Pelosi he has seen polls that indicate he can win. Now, I don't know what he's seeing these, but you can use your, those are real. Those are not hallucinations, Joe.

Patton Stu
Those are real.

Glenn Beck
Real polls.

Patton Stu
Go with that instinct.

Glenn Beck
Yes. At one point, Pelosi asked Mike Donilon, who's big long term Biden advisor and one of the very few people still in the inner circle, for Joe Biden to get on the line to talk over the data. The phone call would mark the second known conversation between Pelosi and Biden since the June 27 debate. One source described it as being within the last week. Pelosi and Biden also spoke in early July.

And the White House says President Biden is the nominee of the party he plans to win and looks forward to working with congressional democrats to pass his 100 days agenda to help working families. You let these working families down, Joe, by stepping down. I hope not.

Patton Stu
It wouldn't be right. It really wouldn't be right.

Glenn Beck
It would not. So I don't know. I mean, he really can, the end of the day, this is his decision. They can't force him out, really. I mean, I guess they can't. They could try to manipulate the rules and really, I mean, they could go dark, which I wouldn't put past them.

Patton Stu
And they could, they could invoke the 25th amendment and just get him out of office.

Glenn Beck
That doesn't really solve it, though.

Patton Stu
It doesn't. He could still run.

Glenn Beck
He could still stay on the ballot.

Patton Stu
Which would be weird, which would be hilarious.

Glenn Beck
And the exact outcome I want, if I could get anything out of this, I would want them to actually go through with invoking the 25th Amendment. He gets thrown out of office, be great. And then says, no, I'm staying on the ticket. Which he could do.

Patton Stu
Yeah, he could.

Glenn Beck
That would be glorious. And then he loses by 40. That would be incredible.

Patton Stu
Be awesome.

Glenn Beck
It's actually my chosen path. But there's another thing. We talked about this on studios America, I think here as well of how do you get Joe Biden out if you're the Democrats and you realize, what are we doing? This is insane.

Number one, you flatter him, right? You flatter and try to convince him. You say, your legacy, mister President, three and a half great years, you shouldn't be ruined by one bad night. But we do need you to go away immediately because you've been so wonderful, 50 years of service, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You go that, you give that route that you could see. They all tried that. You know, Van Jones was on television that night doing exactly that. You've been amazing. But it's just time, you know, that type of thing. So you start with convincing him. Then when that doesn't work, you go to threatening him and we're kind of there now, like Nancy Pelosi, Washington the you want a Nancy Pelosi threat was that clip that we played and I'm sure you played as well, pat on, Pat Gray unleashed where Nancy Pelosi was on television going, we just want the president to decide.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And they're like, he has decided. He says he's staying in. Well, we just need him to decide soon.

What is his decision? We'll honor anything that he wants to do, but what is his decision? He needs to make that decision soon. That is a threat from Nancy Pelosi. And it goes everywhere from that, which is sort of on the light side to God only knows what behind the scenes. Hey, you know, you don't want anything.

Patton Stu
Bad to happen to hunter.

Glenn Beck
That would be terrible.

Patton Stu
I mean, if they really go after him hard, that'd be a shame.

Glenn Beck
It would be, it would be a shame if all this, this republican stuff they've decided they found with the banking records. It'd be terrible if we looked at it.

Patton Stu
We don't want it to, you know, taint you.

Glenn Beck
Right. That would be bad.

Patton Stu
And you know, they start looking into your finances, that'd be really bad.

Glenn Beck
They can make his life a living hell.

If they were to stay on and he were to lose, they could continue to pursue all of this stuff where normally it would just go away. Right. Like there's, you know, even Republicans probably won't pursue it all that much. Honestly, if Trump were to win, but the Democrats could say, you know what, we should go after this and at least threaten him that way. There's a third step. If all that doesn't work, which I've started to see now, I think this is already starting to happen, which is they start leaking to the mediaev things he's not saying.

You know, he's openly been talking about considering stepping down now he's now open to it. Is he, he's made no indication of this whatsoever. Yeah, but behind the scenes, you know, he was at first a little obstinate, but now he's actually thinking maybe this is the right thing to do. They're starting to leak this stuff against him. I think eventually they'll get to the position that they will start leaking that he has already agreed to step down immediately after the election. So if you're, if you're worried about Biden's age, you can vote for Kamala safely right now. Just, just check Biden's box because he's already agreed behind the scenes that he's going to step down and let Kamala take over. But he can't say that publicly because of all these rules. Don't worry about it. Just, the point is just know when you're voting for Biden, it's really going to be Kamala in February.

I think that's kind of like where they're, they will get a, if he, if he stays in, because then you have a path of kind of going to the media and saying this, they will report it. And when he comes out and makes a statement saying, I never said anything like that, they will go back to the meeting and say he, he just can't say that publicly. But don't worry, everything's going to be fine.

And try to convince people to vote for the ticket based on that. They all go down every single road. I mean, the 25th amendment I think, is, is super unlikely. It's the thing we need the most resort.

Patton Stu
But it should be invoked right now.

Glenn Beck
It should be because as much as.

Patton Stu
He can't run for office, he certainly can't be president of the United States.

Glenn Beck
Obviously. You know what? I think that's, it's probably the most likely outcome. Probably the most likely outcome is they have him step down as the nominee but let him stay president, which is the reverse of what should probably happen.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
Like, I think you can make the argument he should step down from being president right now but stay on the ticket and let the american people decide. Right. Like, like if he really feels that he wants to become the nominee. Well, let the people vote for him if they want him. You know, like, just like with the Trump legal stuff. Stop trying to make, try, stop trying to throw this guy in prison. Let the american people decide. They have all this information. You've revealed it all over and over and over again. You've been focusing on it for five years.

Let the american people decide. Giant jury at your, at your beck and call, and they can sit there and make these decisions for you.

But, you know, of course, they didn't want to do that. Now they're stuck with it because they tried to get him in prison all these different ways, and all of them failed miserably, just like I hope this effort does to get Joe Biden out because he deserves to be the nominee.

Patton Stu
He really does. I mean, the people have spoken. 14 million voters have spoken. Well, except for the people of American Samoa, who voted for Jason Palmer. But other than that.

Glenn Beck
Wow. You found the name Jason Palmer.

Patton Stu
Jason Palmer.

Glenn Beck
Wow.

Patton Stu
Yeah, actually. So Biden was the first incumbent to lose in 44 years in American Samoa. Yes.

Glenn Beck
Okay.

Patton Stu
Or anywhere in any american primary. So.

Glenn Beck
Really?

Patton Stu
Yeah. Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Is that true?

Patton Stu
Think so.

Glenn Beck
No, really? I don't know. It doesn't seem like it would be true, but I don't, I don't know.

Patton Stu
From Newsweek, Joe Biden lost the Americans motive to democratic to little known candidate Jason Palmer becoming the first incumbent president to lose a primary since Jimmy Carter in 1980.

Glenn Beck
Wow.

Patton Stu
According to Newsweek.

Glenn Beck
That's incredible.

Patton Stu
That is amazing, isn't it?

Glenn Beck
I would have thought, wow. You know, I would have thought, I guess Al Gore wasn't an incumbent president.

He was an incumbent vice vice president running. But Bill Clinton didn't. I mean, he had a rough first term. He didn't have primaries. Lose a primary.

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
I mean, most of the time there are no challengers, which is what happened here.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
He had no challengers and Jason Palmer still walked.

Patton Stu
I mean, people, nobody, I mean, Jason Palmer, nobody knows who he is. Nobody knew who Marianne Williamson was really, except, I mean, I don't even know what Marianne Williamson really does.

And nobody knew Dean Phillips.

Glenn Beck
No, either.

Patton Stu
So.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, I mean, they knew RFK junior.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And, and he got to get to the party and they pushed him out of the party. I mean, this is the thing, going back to the democracy argument.

This is now the fallback of the Biden White House. Right. To say, well, democracy, 14 million people voted for me. And it's like, it's so disingenuous. This is a party that at the beginning, remember changed the order of the states because Biden lost the early states. Last time he won South Carolina. So they just moved South Carolina to first.

Like, this is the party of democracy.

They then twisted arms and pushed back and made sure nobody run, ran against him, even though everyone knew he was too old back then. They, they made sure people like Gavin Newsom and Gretchen Whitmer and all these people did not run as a, as an opponent. So he had no serious challenger in the race.

Then they, as you mentioned, pushed RFK junior out of the race completely and made him go independent.

They canceled state primaries in multiple states. Canceled them.

If you just wanted to vote for Marion Williamson, you didn't have that opportunity in those states. Just canceled the primaries, coronated this man. So there was no democracy, really, that occurred in the primary. Then they tried to get Donald Trump thrown in prison.

They tried to get him thrown off the ballots.

Patton Stu
Yep.

Glenn Beck
They seemingly almost got the guy killed with the Secret Service. I don't know what the hell is going on there. Not to mention they also denied Secret Service to RFK Junior, a guy whose family has a bit of a history with this sort of problem. And they did finally give it to him.

Patton Stu
Stuck with that until.

Glenn Beck
Until the Trump assassination.

Patton Stu
Until the.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, they finally gave it to him several days ago.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Which is just embarrassing.

They have tried to get RFK junior thrown off the ballot in every state. They have tried to get Jill Stein and Cornel west thrown off the ballot, but their vision of democracy seems to be a ballot with one checkbox next to Joe Biden's name. And yet now they're arguing, well, 14 million people voted for me. You got to honor democracy. I mean, it's so embarrassing. And no mainstream media will take up that cause and say, wait a minute, this doesn't sound like a party of democracy at all. Look at the stuff you're doing.

You know, you could say they can, you can even agree that you don't like what Donald Trump has done, but you should be able to call out Biden for this hypocrisy and the democrats for this hypocrisy. They do this all the time.

Patton Stu
I wish, I wish some mainstream media outlet had the giblets to do that. Triple 8727 beck. More coming up.

Patton Stu
Patents do for glenn today.

Coming off kidney stones.

Glenn Beck
Yes, we got a, we got an update. And this is usually how we find out about Glenn's health ailments on social media. He posted on x that he, we heard yesterday he was sick. That was the amount of detail we got. He's out. He's sick. Okay. He was fine the day before.

You know, like, I don't know if something came on. Okay. That happens. Apparently something did come on. It was kidney stones and he had to have emergency surgery, apparently.

Patton Stu
Yikes.

Glenn Beck
Not last night. The night before. Yeah, I remember this. This happened to you. It was very painful.

Patton Stu
Very, very painful.

Glenn Beck
This is how long ago?

Patton Stu
Last time was about a year and a half ago. That's when I also found out about the diabetes.

Glenn Beck
That's right.

Patton Stu
So, yeah, I had a double whammy there.

Glenn Beck
Double whammy.

A lot of people after Glenn posted that cited your particular battle with this. Yes. A lot of people were like, oh, ask Pat how that is.

Which I think you could give him some advice.

Patton Stu
Good. Yeah.

Glenn Beck
But he. So he is out today. I don't know about tomorrow, whether he will be back. I feel bad for it because you know, Glenn, this kills him not being on the air with all the stuff going on. It kills him. He wants to be here talking to you about JD Vance and the efforts to get Biden out and the assassination attempt. All the breaking news on that. It's killing him to not be on the air, but I assume he will be back at the very least Monday.

So we will keep you updated on that. Also want to tell you that he has teamed up with moms for Liberty for a really cool thing, that it's only going on this week, and since he's not here, he can't really tell you about it. I wanted to make sure you were aware of it.

Glenn Beck has teamed up with moms for liberty to distribute his brand new teen novel into american public schools. This doesn't normally happen, so this is an important effort. Moms for Liberty foundation is running a special campaign. It's this week only, and it is if you donate this week, 100% of your donation will go to placing Glenn's new book, Chasing Embers, which is this great book, like a young adult novel, into the hands of teens. Across the country.

The chapters are located in 300 counties and 48 states and are going to distribute chasing embers into local public schools. But we do need your help to make that happen. So if you can donate, it's m four lfoundation.org. back m four l foundation.org. beck, the book is chasing embers. It's available, too, if you want to buy a copy. If you have someone, a young adult in your life, teenager, who likes to read, they're going to love this book. And it, you know, it's the type of thing that has. It doesn't beat you over the head with a message, but it hits the foundational principles we talk about all the time in an entertaining way that gets people on board long term. You can also pay it forward. You can donate a dollar, or a $1,000 goes to getting chasing embers into the hands of teenagers across the country. And you, uh, if you donate chasing em to chasing embers into a public school, you can visit glenn beck.com and save 10% on a copy for yourself. So if you use the promo code moms four libraries, that will happen. So, anyway, get involved in this. It's a really good project and something that is needed, obviously, because God only knows what kids are reading these days. I've seen some of the crap that's in libraries, and I think this would be a much better choice.

Patton Stu
Are you in favor of burning books? Is that what you're saying? I did say, is that exactly what you're saying?

Glenn Beck
I'm arguing to get a book into public libraries.

Patton Stu
Wow.

Glenn Beck
That's what I'm doing. I'm arguing into public libraries.

Patton Stu
Fascism. That's all it is. No, just pure, unadulterated fascism.

Glenn Beck
So you're not dissuaded at all by the assassination attempt on Trump? You're just gonna keep saying the fascist thing. That's what you're gonna do.

Patton Stu
Well, yeah, I toned down the rhetoric, but it doesn't stop me from telling the truth, you know?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
You know, that is what Joe just said the other day, but it doesn't stop me from telling the truth. Okay, well, good.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. And the truth, they say, is basically all the things that led to the assassination attempt.

Patton Stu
Exactly.

Glenn Beck
Okay.

Patton Stu
Yeah, that works. Don't worry about it.

Glenn Beck
There you go.

Patton Stu
All right. We're gonna get into some of the very weird aspects of the assassination attempt and where the Secret Service was on all that, and the head of the Secret Service doing just a terrific job. She's not a dei hire at all.

Glenn Beck
Oh, really?

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
Oh, good.

Patton Stu
No, she's. She got that based on merit. I'm pretty sure we'll get into that. Coming up.

Glenn Beck
The Glenn Beck program. Let me tell you about Lear capital. You've worked your whole life to build what you have today. You saved when you needed to save. You've cut costs when you needed to cut costs. You've done all the things you're supposed to do. Maybe you made a mistake here or there, but, you know, you always correct it. You get back on the horse, and now because of someone responsible like yourself, because of irresponsible government, and everything you've built over time is rapidly shrinking. If you don't see the need to shore up your hard earned money with something that will act as a firewall against economic disaster, you're not looking very hard. Precious metals in particular, gold, have always been a safety net in times of looming economic trouble. Glenn bought his first gold with Lear capital. It was over two decades ago after hearing rush talk about it. And since that time, his investment has actually quadrupled. So do your own homework and check them out today. With over 3 billion trusted transactions, thousands of five star reviews, and 24 hours risk free purchase guarantee, Lear is the precious metals leader that you can trust. Get your free wealth protection guides, and Lear will also credit your account $250 towards your purchase. Give them a call today. 809. Five, seven gold. 800 957 gold. It's 800 957 gold for Lear capital. Radio show starts here in just a couple seconds.

It's a new day. I turn around.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Patton Stu
With Patton. Stu for Glenn. Today we gotta get into the JD Vance speech. We will do that coming up. But also, what is going on with the us secret Service?

The b team, the c team, the d team, I don't know, the f team.

I'm not sure who was there at the Trump rally, but this was not America's finest, I'm thinking, and the head of the secret service, Kimberly Cheadle.

Glenn Beck
Suboptimal.

Patton Stu
Suboptimal, okay.

Glenn Beck
Is that the word you'd use, really?

Patton Stu
Yes. Yes. We'll get into that and more in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
So in an emergency situation, you've got to think fast. And there usually isn't time for you to weigh your options out carefully. That's why if you're a responsible citizen, you've already weighed them out in advance. You know, this. I mean, this is a message that, I don't know, maybe should be spoken to some of our Secret Service agents these days. You probably know that while you're maybe willing to take a stand, you almost always need deadly force. And if you want to try to disarm a situation without it elevating to that level, you need a bird and launcher. It's a non lethal alternative to safeguarding your home. It is legal in all 50 states if you're over 18 and you can pack it in your checked luggage without the need to declare it as a firearm. The Burnham launcher has powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds with a 60 foot range. And one shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. By the way, their high capacity mission, four rifle with maximum projectile speed is back in stock right now, ready to ship. Dont miss out on an opportunity to own one. Burna.com glenn.com glenn get 10% off your purchase. Berna.com Glenn, you'll get all the updates right there@berna.com. glenn.

Patton Stu
Kimberly Cheadle. Man, is she good.

Glenn Beck
Really?

Patton Stu
Yeah. Oh, man.

Glenn Beck
You sure?

Patton Stu
Oh, she's on top of this different impression. Really?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Huh.

Glenn Beck
It was based on the fact that apparently the gunman was on the roof now for 20 minutes.

Patton Stu
And you think that's what, ample time to go up there and maybe get him off the roof?

Glenn Beck
I feel like.

Patton Stu
What are you saying?

Glenn Beck
When I see people crawling on a roof with a rifle, I feel the need to remove them from that situation as quickly as possible. And I feel like, you know, like 14 minutes. You can get it done in that time. Let's just keep it easy at this point.

Patton Stu
14 minutes.

Glenn Beck
I think you could do it in 14 minutes.

Patton Stu
Wow.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Wow.

Glenn Beck
Or 1 second.

Right. Like if someone climbs on a roof when a president and former president and about to be next president most likely is speaking at an event right within rifle range.

Patton Stu
Uh huh.

Glenn Beck
You stopped that right away.

Patton Stu
Wow, you're pretty picky.

Glenn Beck
This is one of my weird hang.

Patton Stu
Ups that is really strange.

Glenn Beck
I've been thinking this way, no matter what party.

Patton Stu
Really?

Glenn Beck
Yeah. I think it's just like, you should stop people from trying to assess presidential.

Patton Stu
But here's the thing, the roof was sloped.

Glenn Beck
Oh, yeah. No, I did not know that. Yeah, I didn't know.

Patton Stu
You can't position anybody on the roof because somebody might fall off and hurt themselves. So she couldn't endanger one of her people to be up there.

Glenn Beck
But, but isn't the entire job of a Secret Service agent to give your life up for someone like President Trump or President Biden or RFK junior talking.

Patton Stu
About getting on top of a sloped roof. Do you want to get on the sloped roof?

Glenn Beck
I mean, I've been on top of sloped roofs before and I have to tell the story. The tale is being told.

Patton Stu
Yeah, but how badly were you hurt and how much time did you spend in the hospital once you fell off?

Glenn Beck
Zero minutes. Really was not hurt.

Patton Stu
Are you like some sort of human goat that you can navigate sloped roof without falling off of it?

Glenn Beck
I am part goat, yes. People have said that you're the goat. They say that all the time, so that might be true.

Patton Stu
So they didn't have one of those in the Secret Service and couldn't.

Glenn Beck
They should get one. Pat.

Patton Stu
And here's the thing. If you're worried about your person falling off the roof, maybe you station them, I don't know, at the ladder that leads to the roof so that if anybody starts to climb up it, you say, excuse me, sir, you with the AR 15 going up the ladder. I don't want you to do that. Yeah, you're not going to do that.

Glenn Beck
There's reporting today that he actually bought a ladder but didn't need the ladder.

Patton Stu
Because there was a ladder already there. Yeah.

Yeah.

Glenn Beck
I mean, I'm lucky.

Patton Stu
We can laugh about this with you. I know. And we, you know, somebody died.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, that's true, too.

Patton Stu
Really does.

Glenn Beck
I will say it does get lost. And it really sad. Really, really sad. Because here's a father who's defending his, his family's life.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And he pays the ultimate price. And these other two, other two were. I were in critical condition now to serious condition and stable. So that seems like there might be a recovery there. I will say, and I'm guilty of this. I think a lot of other people are as well because of the focus on politics, because of the president of the United States.

Patton Stu
Him being okay.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, him being okay. You kind of lose focus on, you know, this is a situation that is really serious. A person died here. And what it reminded me of a little bit, it, Pat, was the Charlottesville situation in sort of a similar way. A person who was just there supporting one side of the argument paid for it with their lives. You know, not someone who was in an altercation, just someone who gets literally run over while she's trying to, you know, be a counter protester. Right. And that to this moment, Joe Biden just talked about it the other day, just talked about it the other day about the reason he got into the race, which is a complete lie and has been disproved already a hundred times, yet he still keeps telling the story, but like, she's, like a woman died.

Patton Stu
Charlottesville.

Glenn Beck
They came, he said, and I don't know if this is true, Pat.

I don't remember this part of the story. They came out of the woods with their torches. Did they come out of woods is Charlottesville.

It's a city. They came out of the woods.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
I don't remember that at all. Did they? I mean, maybe they did. I will say I don't remember seeing that, but maybe they did come out of the woods and a woman died. But the media has told the story of this woman who was run over by an insane person who was aligned with the alt right, which is not the right is 100 million, you know.

Patton Stu
As you might recognize from the word alt. Alt, which is short for alternative.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
To the right.

Glenn Beck
And I will say it is not an alternative version of the right.

Patton Stu
To the right.

Glenn Beck
It is something different than the right. It is a group of people who support abortion. It is a group of people who support federalized health care. Like, these are not conservatives by any means. They just apply racism to conservatives. So whenever they hear racism, they assume it's a conservative group. It's not go look at their friggin policies. Right? They are not. And they're not even really, there's like twelve of them. So forget all that. But my point is to say that when there was a person who, I don't know if he Biden, referred to them as a bystander, I mean, they were involved in the protest. They weren't just like walking, crossing the street, they were involved in the protest. But someone who was an innocent quite clearly should not have been killed and was killed by a horrible person. The same thing applies here. You know, I mean, this guy just went to this, went to this rally because he was supporting a candidate he loved.

Patton Stu
It's really sad and it's really, really.

Glenn Beck
Sad and shouldn't be lost. And at times, I will say, because of the ramifications to the country and to politics and all those other things, it does get lost.

Patton Stu
Yeah, it does.

And the other thing that we discovered yesterday was that the shooter brought with him a laser rangefinder. How to the rally.

Glenn Beck
How is this possible?

Patton Stu
And was discovered with that 3 hours prior.

How? I don't understand how any of this is possible.

I mean, about the only thing he did not do was just dig a grave next to the stage where he planned to pull Donald Trump and made the announcement through the grave, the headstone that he was going to put there.

Glenn Beck
It's incredible.

Patton Stu
It's absolutely unreal that they didn't find that they didn't apprehend this guy and at least question him until after the rally.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Is that unreasonable to think, okay, he's got a rifle, he's got a laser rangefinder. He's wandering around at a Trump rally.

Maybe we might want to question him.

Glenn Beck
So when he comes in with the rangefinder, obviously doesn't have the rifle at that point. But, like, to me, maybe we should ask Jason Buttrell this if he's around here today. I don't know. But to me, when you're running a security operation, I don't want to be one of these people who gets. Maybe I'm too nit picky here, but when you come in and you have a rangefinder, you're immediately detained and set to the side, and you don't watch the rally. You sit there with police officers till the rally's over and they really determine you're no threat at all. Then maybe you go home after the rally's over and Trump is clear.

Patton Stu
Seems reasonable. Maybe that seems reasonable to me.

Glenn Beck
You don't bring a rangefinder to a political event.

Patton Stu
No, you don't.

Glenn Beck
Just like, you don't. Like, I am a big supporter of the second amendment. You don't bring a gun to a political event like that.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
Now, obviously, later on, he went back and got a gun. But they also saw him with a backpack.

Patton Stu
Yep.

Glenn Beck
They saw him multiple times and lost him multiple times. But now we're even finding that he apparently was on pictures of him.

People took pictures of him hours beforehand.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And said, this guy looks suspicious. And they kept losing him now and then.

Patton Stu
The 20 minutes thing is incredible.

Glenn Beck
The 20 minutes thing is incomprehensible.

Now, maybe they. I was trying to think of some explanation for. Perhaps they thought he was just trying to get a view of the rally from over there. Now, he had to have had his weapon with him. So I. That's not applies. But, like, once he's up there with a weapon, immediately he's shot dead. That's the end of it.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
Shot dead. The second he's on a roof.

Patton Stu
The only other thing I can think of is, you know, because they had the snipers that were 130 yards from him or something. Something. And they were on that rooftop, which was, by the way, sloped, but they spotted him, and you've got, you've got your scope. Right. So you're seeing that he has a weapon.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
And they don't. They don't do that. They don't shoot him.

Glenn Beck
At that point, you wonder, is it possible at some point did they think maybe it was one of their own? Right.

Patton Stu
That's the only thing that makes any sense.

Maybe he was part of security.

Glenn Beck
Right?

But no, none of this. I mean, these are not excuses. I'm just trying to think of, because here's what I don't think, and I know everyone's got to make some kind.

Patton Stu
Of sense out of it. It just doesn't make any sense.

Glenn Beck
I know everyone's got a theory as to why this has gone on. There's a lot of, there's a million conspiracy theories on the left, and of.

Patton Stu
Course, there's going to be both on.

Glenn Beck
The left and the right, and there's some on both sides. And who knows? Some of them might prove to be true. We don't even know. I tend to stay away from them until we have the evidence to support them. So I'm not going to sit here and try to entertain all the theories. I've heard 100 of them already.

I will say that it's hard to blame people for jumping to them at this point. The scenario is completely insane. The fact that this guy was on now we think 20 minutes on the roof, obviously, people were pointing to him saying he's got a gun. None of this stuff is even mildly close to acceptable. And it's so incredibly insane that jumping to these theories is pretty freaking understandable, and especially when we don't even have real understanding of who this person is. There was a report that has come out, the Senate was briefed that he did actually put something on social media.

He said, July 13 will be my premiere. Watch it as it unfolds.

So sort of a, you know, a vague statement about he was going to do something, but again, not something you'd necessarily see and say, oh, this guy's going to go try to shoot the president of the United States. They are saying as well that he had information about where Trump was going to be and where Biden was going to be.

Now a lot of people are looking at this and saying, oh, they're just trying to throw us off, off the scent here. Might be true. I don't know if he, it could theoretically be a person who just wanted to do something to make him famous. It could be something that he wanted to just make some big statement. I don't know. It's possible.

We, I think we are much better on as conservatives at this. I'd rather know the information and, and see what the motivation is. One, once we have it, you know, there doesn't seem to be anything that they're releasing quickly. And I talked about this with Sarah yesterday. This happens all the time. These social media networks bring up. They have these things, and because they're, they're killers, they don't want to. They say they don't want to, you know, help spread their message. Message. So they pull all their, their accounts offline immediately when they find out that they had an account with them. And then we don't get to sift through this stuff. Other people do it for us.

The, the government does it, the police do it, somebody else does it. And we don't get to see the raw stuff.

And while I want to hide the, I don't want what they want to, a shooter wants to occur, to be helped. I don't want their manifesto to be promoted. But I do think the american people need to know what's going on, what the motivation was. And when these things come out, a lot of times we're like, oh, it's a, it's a conservative. A conservative. And, like, you start reading them like, they're, like, promoting dos kapital, and you're like, wait a minute. That's not a kid. What's going on here? I think that there is a line where having this information out to the, to the american people so they can understand it is important. You know, we don't talk about the names of the killers. You know, you don't want to promote them. This is maybe a different situation. I know some people who have that rule have broken it because of this one. As a presidential assassin, I think that's defensible.

But I do wonder, you know, we don't know anything about this person. We don't have enough information. We keep getting varying accounts. I mean, I remember seeing the 86 2nd thing. He's on. He's on this roof 86 seconds before there's video of people saying, oh, my gosh, he's up there. He's got a gun.

Patton Stu
Which seemed to be plenty of time. Plenty of time.

Glenn Beck
And now we're at 20 minutes. Now they're at 3 hours where the range finder incident happens. It's impossible.

Patton Stu
And apparently his parents called. Cause he was missing.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Patton Stu
And they didn't know where he was. So they called police, alerted them to the fact that something was wrong that morning.

And apparently the dad knew he was.

Glenn Beck
Going to the gun range and had his gun.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
So I don't. It's. There is so much that would make you think they're not telling us the full story that I understand people just trying to fill it in themselves is actually totally understandable. I don't think it's under, like, I don't think it's understandable at 911.

Right, right. I know. I know Alex has been on both your show and our show at this point, and I know that he's a big believer in that theory. I do not buy it at all.

Patton Stu
Me neither.

Glenn Beck
And I don't think there is a lot there. But with this situation, and it's also early, you don't always have the solution to all these things immediately. But it's the incompetence at a level, at an organization that's supposed to be the most competent force there is. Yeah, it doesn't. It doesn't feel right. Even though we've seen a lot of failures from this organization recently, a lot of weird stuff has been going on. Glenn's been talking about this for years now.

Massive failures within the Secret Service. He's been saying something needs to change for years. And maybe this is just maybe this. It's a very simple thing. We find out that this organization, led by Kim Cheadle, is a catastrophe. It might be that simple, but, man, I don't know. It is.

It's too much.

Patton Stu
It is.

Glenn Beck
It's hard for me to understand.

Patton Stu
It is.

Glenn Beck
Pat, you and I, who are no special security agents, would have been. If we were there, we would have easily been able to identify the situation as something that needed to stop before 20 minutes passed. Yeah. It's not brain surgery here.

Patton Stu
No, it's really not. Triple 8727 beck. More in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
You know, a man's best friend comes with his own set of health needs. If you're becoming a dog owner, you know what I'm talking about. It isn't just enough to throw some dry kibble in a bowl. Your dog needs nutrients. The kind of stuff that gets baked out of that kibble food when they're making it at the factory. And there's nothing better than food made out of factory. What you need and what your dog is going to want is rough greens. And you know, we've been talking about this for a long time. I know, Pat. You've given this to your dog? I've given it to my dogs.

Glen has given it to his dogs for a long time. It's not a dog food. It's a supplement. And it's developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black that you sprinkle on the dog food. Remember, brown food is dead food. You want the greens, you name it. If it's healthy for your dog, it's probably already in rough greens. The rough greens folks are so confident your dog is going to love it. They have a special deal going on right now. Go to roughgreens.com beck or call. Eight three three. Glen 33. They're going to give you your first trial bag free. All you have to do is pay for shipping. 833 Gl E N 33. 833 Glenn 33 for rough greens. Give them a call today. 10 seconds. Station id.

Patton Stu
I like this story from Politico, too.

Their headline was something like, Trump is shot. Republicans still say guns aren't the problem.

Yeah, that's because we're consistent.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Patton Stu
That's because we're not hypocrites. And that's because just because a gun was used in the commission of a crime doesn't mean you take all guns from people and eliminate the second amendment. This is like, mentioned this earlier today. It's like car accidents kill more people than just about anything else other than cancer, I think. And so is anybody yelling about, I don't know, a three day waiting period on cars or banning cars? No. No.

Being fat is contributing to health issues all over this country and the planet. Should we ban forks?

Probably not. Should we get a three day waiting period on forks so that you can't stuff food into your mouth as quickly?

I don't know. It's just. It's asinine to me that they can't figure out the logic on this.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. I mean, the car one is a great one. A great example of this. Right. Cars are. Most of them are used for really good purposes.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Every once in a while, one of the guns. Every once in a while, one is not. And every once in a while, you know, 25 people get run over at a parade.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
And no one says the cars are the problem because it would be insane to do so.

Patton Stu
Yeah. What are there, 303 to 400 million guns in this country?

Glenn Beck
Country, yeah. Over 400 million.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Wow. That's incredible. So you got a lot of them that aren't used for bad purposes. I mean, the vast, like, 99.9% of them are not used for something bad.

Glenn Beck
Oh, yeah. It's. It's over that. I mean, I did a. The very first monologue I did on wonderful World of Stu, my previous show was about assault rifles.

Patton Stu
And so this was a long time ago.

Glenn Beck
Oh, yeah, a long time ago. I remember it because it was the first show of that series and I look like I'm 14 years old and I had a. I filled an entire kiddie pool with rice.

Patton Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
And I colored, like, one of the grains, red.

Patton Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
And I was like, if you can find the red, you know, grain of rice in this pool, that is the chances of one of the guns that is out there actually being used for these purposes. It was just kind of a way to illustrate how almost everyone uses their gun for, you know, purposes that are completely fine to defend their home, defend their family. Every once in a while, someone takes one and uses it for bad purposes. That doesn't mean the entire gun is the problem.

Patton Stu
It's insanity.

Glenn Beck
Insanity.

Stand up, Glenn Beck.

So relief factor is something that has really helped Glenn. He's out today because he had surgery for kidney stones, and it's, he's in a lot of pain. I don't know if relief factor stops this kind of pain. I've, I don't know. I can tell you that it's helped him live his life again. I could tell, I tell you that it's helped Glenn change his life. You know, he's got a big art exhibit coming up like, he couldn't even paint for years. And he's become a really, really good painter. I mean, not at the hunter Biden levels. I mean, he's not that good. Obviously. That would be too much.

Patton Stu
Come on.

Glenn Beck
But relief factor is a big part of that story because he wasn't able, his hands were so painful, he wasn't able to paint at all. That changed because of relief factor. And if you have pain that is hitting you every single day, all day, every day, whether you're hurting, whatever it is, your back, your neck, your joints, your muscles, in about three weeks or less, you'll see a difference because of relief factor. Give it a try. Try relief factor. Relieffactor.com or 1800 for relief. And save on your first order. It's 1800, the number four relief. Fight pain naturally with relief factor.

Patton Stu
And don't forget to use the promo code Glenn 30 trial to get $30 off your subscription, plus a seven day free trial@blazetv.com. glenna it's Pat and Stu for Glenn today, who had a kidney issue like kidney stones, had to have emergency surgery on those.

But he's home and resting and doing fine now, and I'm sure out of, out of pain.

But, man, you've never had that, have you, Stu? The kidney stones?

Glenn Beck
Nothing like surgery level stuff. No.

Patton Stu
I mean, when they hit, boy, does that hurt. Oh, my gosh. It is some of the worst pain you could imagine. And I've had women that have had bullets compared to childbirth. So, you know, it's pretty painful.

It's not good.

Glenn Beck
No, no, not good.

Patton Stu
If I had to go through that kind of pain in childbirth, we wouldn't. There'd be no children. No, no.

Glenn Beck
This is why the population of this.

Patton Stu
Planet would be about four now. Four people.

Glenn Beck
When you say you would not go through this, but you don't mean that men can't have children. You understand? Men can birth.

Patton Stu
Of course, yes. I would not disparage birthing people at all, ever.

Glenn Beck
Okay.

Patton Stu
Or limit them to say, like some, you know, freaks, that only women can have children. I would never do that.

Glenn Beck
Really believe that. They think that only women can give birth.

Patton Stu
What?

Glenn Beck
Yeah, it's crazy, nutty people. I know.

Patton Stu
Oh, man.

Glenn Beck
I mean, when obviously we all know the truth, that men can give birth. I mean, probably, if they want to, some argue they're even better at it, you know, I mean, men are maybe superior.

Patton Stu
Hesitate to ask, but from where does the baby come in a man? We know when it comes out of the man, because that's gotta hurt.

Glenn Beck
Well, thinking probably pretty painful, but, I mean, childbirth is painful. You know, this is why you should deal with it. This is why you should be able to abort at any. Any moment of the presidency. Any momentous presidency.

Patton Stu
All right.

Glenn Beck
If you feel.

Patton Stu
I'd love to abort this presidency, too.

Glenn Beck
By the way, the Democrats are currently attempting to do it, just in case you've been following this. They really are. They are full frag. They are the. They are giving Mifa prestone to the presidency as we speak.

They really are.

Patton Stu
They are full out in.

Glenn Beck
But I will say it is a. It's a bit of fascinating thing to watch. And honestly, like, so far, it's been bizarre in that, like, people are so amazed by the incompetence of the Secret Service. It really hasn't hit.

It really hasn't hit Biden in a negative way. Right. Like, I think people talked about the DEI aspects of it where, like, what's going on? Why are they hiring these people? You see, one of the top priorities, as stated by the Secret Service, is to get 30% of the agents to be women.

Like, that's one of the top priorities. How can I be one of your. How about keeping people off of sloped roofs?

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Like, is there anything you come up with that?

Patton Stu
Right. And getting good people that would, I don't know, recognize the fact that somebody shouldn't be on that roof right before a presidential candidate is about to speak 130 yards away.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
You know, maybe. Maybe somebody who could figure that out, would be really good in the Secret Service. I don't know.

Glenn Beck
And like, look, I'm a, a big believer. I can't believe Kim Cheadle's even still in this job. And I think she should, I mean, I'm on big.

Patton Stu
Tells us where we are as a nation right now.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. I think by the time I get back from vacation, she should be, she will be gone. I could be wrong on that because Joe Biden really hasn't shown no aptitude at all to fire people who've done terrible jobs. I mean, Mayorkas is still in office. You know, no one got fired for Afghanistan.

Oh, my God.

Patton Stu
He's been a disastrous. We've had transportation wise.

Glenn Beck
Come on. And so none of that's happened. So she may very well hold on to her job, but she should be out. But this is not like people are looking at this as his Kim Cheadle issue. It's really not. I mean, it's above that.

You know, it's, it's not only just even a Biden issue, it is a central issue to the philosophy of the left and the way they want to run this country. They constantly want people who aren't the best at their jobs to have the jobs because of their skin color, because of their genitals, because of their sexual preference.

Patton Stu
Yeah. And wouldn't this be a good time to review that policy where you're hiring people because they're diverse and diverse. Diversity above all else, above merit, above anything else in life that makes any sense whatsoever. We just want to have the most diverse people available in our jobs. Well, that's asinine.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Patton Stu
Especially when it comes to protecting the lives of people.

Glenn Beck
Right.

Patton Stu
Asinine.

Glenn Beck
We talked about this a little bit, but it's like, you know, Corinne Jean Pierre.

Patton Stu
Yeah. Is that critical?

Glenn Beck
Obviously a DeI hire. Obviously she can't do the job.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
You know, in some ways, but it's not killing people. Yeah.

Patton Stu
It almost kills me because it causes my blood pressure to go so high.

Glenn Beck
That I would argue, though, she's probably been good for conservatives overall. Like, the fact that they have someone who's that poor of a spokesperson to defend their policies has probably been a really good thing for conservatives overall. But it's not a vital function. Right. It's not true. Lives aren't on the line with Corinne Jumpier being in an idiot. I mean, she is an idiot. That's true. She can't, she can't do her job at all. But, eh, whatever. Right. Like, it's not the biggest deal in the world. There are a lot of jobs that are like that, and it's unfair to, let's say, some other qualified spokesperson who should have that job so that they can lie better to us. Yes, I will admit that that's true, but I'm not that concerned overall about that. I am concerned about our military, our secret service, our FBI, our CIA. Like we're talking about.

Patton Stu
Those are vital.

Glenn Beck
Those are big time, important agencies that do important things, in theory, to defend us, though I don't know what they've been doing lately, but, I mean, that's a whole other point. On top of all of this, at the end of the day, like, you got to have the right person in the job. I mean, our health infrastructure, we got some dude in a dress running giant chunks of it. That's real.

Like, again, like, there's obviously. Obviously this person should not be running. What is it? Health and human services. Yeah. And, like, obviously, everyone knows the reason they have this job is because it's a guy in a dress. There's 100% of the reason. Yeah, everyone knows it. Everyone knows it. On the left. On the right, everyone knows it. And we're like, oh, well, it's not a big deal.

Patton Stu
I think it is just like, KJP has her job because she's. She's a black lesbian.

Glenn Beck
Yep.

Patton Stu
I mean, that's it.

Glenn Beck
100% of the reason she has that job is right.

Patton Stu
I mean, and we also know, because he mentioned it in advance, we also know why Kamala Harris has her job, because she's a black woman. And he promised. Promised to put a black woman in that position.

Glenn Beck
Ketanji Brown Jackson, another example. He promised to do it beforehand, before he even looked at the candidates. He decided genitals and skin color were number one and number two as to how he would come up with who he picked. And then the person he picked didn't even understand how to define a woman because she's not a biologist.

Patton Stu
Oh, my gosh.

When you lay it out like this, this on top of each other, it's. It's really frightening, isn't it? I mean, the greatest country in the history of this planet has all of these problems right now. It's really. It's incomprehensible. Let's go to Michael in Utah. Hey, Michael, you're on the Glenn Beck program with Patton. Stu.

C
Hey, I was wondering if you guys would be interested in a Zoomers perspective on the assassination temp on Trump.

Patton Stu
Sure.

C
So what I did is a couple days. I think it was Tuesday, I went and hit up a bunch of friends online on my discords, and I said, hey, I got three questions for you. What's your political leaning? How did the Trump assassination make you feel in the moment? And do you still talk about it? And the common theme among all of them was apt to see towards the whole thing is, oh, it's just an interesting event, you know, exciting in the moment. But this doesn't really affect me very much. Don't really care. And nobody still thinks about it except when it pops up on the news site. What's interesting is that my right leaning friends, their general perspective was indifference. It was, ah, crap, Fred's got shot. Let's, you know, follow the newsfeed. And then it was like, oh, okay, he's okay. Who cares? But among the last, though, it was a lot of disappointment that it failed. And then the centrists were the more even between the two, where they were shocked, surprised and worried. And I think it's interesting that the centrists had more of the opinion that, you know, this is bad, that this shouldn't happen. And while the right, we're like, whatever, I'm surprised it happened sooner. And the left were like, damn, it failed. What the hell?

Glenn Beck
That's amazing. I think, you know, and thanks for the call, Michael. I appreciate it. I think one of the parts of that is it really was something that a lot on the right just expected the hatred because of the hate built up on this guy for so long. I know tons of people who, you know, I've talked to, you had probably a dozen conversations over the years of people who thought this was going to happen. And we're like, I just can't believe it hasn't happened yet.

Patton Stu
Well, the way they've demonized him.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Patton Stu
Yeah, yeah.

How often have they said, well, you've just inspired somebody who is disturbed. Yeah, well, they accuse us of that all the time.

And your rhetoric hasn't maybe inspired somebody who's disturbed.

Glenn Beck
Do you ever watch Handmaid's tale, Pat? No, I don't know that I would recommend it particularly for you, dark.

But it is a vision of the country in which women are living in servitude. They are constantly sexually assaulted and murdered for no reason. They're beaten when they do.

Patton Stu
This is supposed to represent Trump's America, right?

Glenn Beck
And this is the example they use probably most often to represent what Trump would do. The Handmaid's tale.

In the Handmaid's tale, the heroes of the story are trying to kill the leaders of that society.

Right. The whole point is you're rooting for the heroes of the story to kill the members who, of the, of the group that have started the society.

Patton Stu
Wow.

Glenn Beck
That is what the whole thing's about, her escape and her efforts to kill all the people responsible for this society. And then they tell you on television all the time that this is what's coming. If Brett Kavanaugh becomes a supreme court justice, and then what, what do you think might happen to Brett Kavanaugh? What do you think might happen to Donald Trump? I mean, it's, I think the indifference on the right is built on two things. One, the president's survival and his immediate turn to show it as an empowering event, which is incredible.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And number two, it was, it was so expected.

We look at the way the left treats people. We look at the way the left thinks and talks about Trump. We look at the way that violence is constantly excused on the left when they burn down cities and everyone's like, ah, but I mean, racist.

Patton Stu
It was mostly peaceful.

Glenn Beck
Speaker one, it was mostly peaceful. Don't worry about it. In fact, police officers lose their lives and they shrug and say, well, police are bad over and over and over again. This, so what the right does is see this and say, thank God he survived. But totally expected that to happen five years ago.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
I can't believe it's taken this long.

That is shocking but true.

Patton Stu
Sure is. Triple 8727 Beck. More coming up.

Glenn Beck

Patton Stu
Pack, race, stupor, gear for Glenn today, triple 8727. Beck talking about some of the failings of the secret service, for one thing.

Let's go to Martin in California. Hey, Martin, you're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Stu.

Glenn Beck
Hey, Pat. Hey, Stu. Hey. Thank you.

D
Thank you for giving me the opportunity.

Glenn Beck
To enter the dialectic about this issue. Yeah, I am most curious.

Usually the day after the day of a shooting, we hear that the automatic rifle, you know, the ardental.

D
We need legislation to start right now.

Glenn Beck
We need to ban the black rifle.

Patton Stu
Yes.

Glenn Beck
Have you guys heard any cry?

Oh, it's interesting.

Patton Stu
Very little.

Glenn Beck
We did mention the Politico article that kind of brought that article up today. And Joe Biden did make some sort of plea at one of his bumbling speeches that we need to ban the.

Patton Stu
But it's been pretty muted, speaker.

Glenn Beck
But it's been pretty muted. I will agree with you. It's been pretty.

Patton Stu
Speaker one. You're right about that, Martin. It's. You have a thought as to why that's muted?

Glenn Beck
Your guests would be as good as mine.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

D
It's their normal tactical use of control. That's what they want is control. You know it as well as I do.

Patton Stu
Yeah, absolutely.

Glenn Beck
I.

D
Thank you, guys.

Glenn Beck
Fight.

D
Keep fighting.

Glenn Beck
Just like. Just like the boss said. Fight.

Patton Stu
Fight.

Thanks.

Glenn Beck
Thank you. Appreciate that. You know, it's. It is. It is a little strange. You know, it's. It's been fascinating to watch because they basically, they've gone into two different. There's been a little bit of this pitch toward anti gun stuff. Cause it's kind of their common defense.

And then this idea that because he was a registered Republican, we don't have to answer any of these questions about rhetoric on their side.

Patton Stu
Yeah. And we'll just ignore the $15 donation to the progressive cause.

Glenn Beck
Right. Which, obviously none of it makes sense, but I will say we went through that Lester Holt interview with Donald.

Patton Stu
Was he belligerent during that thing or what?

Glenn Beck
Yeah, he was belligerent whole. I watched the whole thing.

Patton Stu
He was pissed from the start.

Glenn Beck
I can't. Speaker one, for some reason you imagine a Democrat being mad at NBC News coverage. It's impossible. You guys haven't covered Trump's lies enough. What are you talking about? It's all they talked about.

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
We did miss the ones most people miss. The one where he really, like, lost his train of thought in the middle of it. I don't know if we have. We. Maybe we can play that clip later on today because you go through that and you see how upset he was. But one of the things he kind of talks about every time he was asked, and Lester Holt, I think, did a halfway decent job of saying, hey, like, have you reflected on this, your rhetoric at all? Like, is there anything.

Patton Stu
Yeah, he did.

Glenn Beck
He did. Yes, it did several times and tried to ask it several ways. And every time Joe Biden went back to Trump's rhetoric, blaming the victim of the assassination attempt.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
For the problems.

Patton Stu
Yeah. And he actually said he has. He carries no responsibility or accountability for it. I don't do that. Other people do.

Glenn Beck
Oh, so wait, so Donald Trump saying bad things about you or the reason why he got shot?

Patton Stu
Yeah, it does.

Glenn Beck
What does.

Patton Stu
That does not.

Glenn Beck
It doesn't make any sense at all. And people are like, well, we don't know the motivation. I think the motivation may have been to kill Donald Trump.

I'm thinking really that perhaps.

Patton Stu
But where are you getting that? Is that just because the shot tore through his ear?

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Yeah, that was a big part of it.

Patton Stu
Maybe a quarter of an inch more and it would have tore through, in, through his skull.

Glenn Beck
That was a big part of the thesis.

Patton Stu
It does have something to do with.

Glenn Beck
It's in the document. I wrote a report on it.

Patton Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
And it was like, hey, they shot at Donald Trump. That was pretty much most of it. So that was mainly the reason. Now, I, again, we don't know if the motivation was politics or they just. I don't know. He really likes survivor instead of the apprentice. I don't know what it could have been. But my guess is the political rhetoric against Donald Trump played a role here. That's my guess.

Patton Stu
Unless maybe Donald Trump fired somebody during the apprentice that this kid liked.

Glenn Beck
That's a great question.

Patton Stu
I don't know. We haven't looked into that, have we? Let's follow that lead.

Glenn Beck
The Glenn Beck program. Let me tell you about home title lock. Did you hear about the cyber scammers in the news that tried to steal Graceland from Elvis Presley's family?

Yeah, you wouldn't think that would be a good idea, Pat, but no, you wouldn't. They tried it anyway.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Didn't get away with it, mainly because it was Graceland. I mean, I think eventually it was caught. They had to go to court, though, to prove that the Elvis Presley family actually owned Graceland. That's how pervasive the crime of home title theft is right now. It is one of the biggest, fastest growing crimes in America. It is. There's a lot of targets out there. And you're probably one of them. You're probably somebody who's been paying their mortgage this entire time and done everything right. Well, if you're one of those people, you're the big targets of this. Fall prey to these thieves. Go to hometitle lock.com dot. Make sure your title is safe. Use the promo code blaze.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Patton Stu
Republican I don't care about anyway, she slaps into Joe Biden there.

Glenn Beck
The idea.

Patton Stu
Anyway, I've said too much.

Glenn Beck
I've said too much.

Patton Stu
Now, the Republican National Convention going on. We've got some great clips from last night in JD Vance, the vice presidential candidate. We'll get to that coming up in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where your credit card balance wasn't hit with crippling compound interest? Kind of sounds nice. Unfortunately though, we don't live in that world. And if you're someone who has had to use a lot of credit cards, well, you know, chances are fair that you could end up into debt up to your eyeballs.

If you're talking about debt, if you're thinking about debt, the type of debt that can wipe out your savings and set you back years, if not permanently, you need to do something about it. If you're a fiscally responsible person, you find a little time in your schedule to check out and head to the fine mortgage consultants over at american financing. They know this stuff. They've been dealing with it for a long time. They're going to look over your finances. They're going to see if there's some areas that can be improved. For instance, your mortgage really can be made to work for you. It can help you get out of high interest debt fast. It's the kind of thing that happens for people when they get in touch with american financing. So don't, don't, don't miss this opportunity.

Don't take my word for it. Do your own homework. Go to american financing. Call them@americanfinancing.net or call, go to their website or call them at 809 06244, 8090 624 40 or americanfinancing.net dot. It's american financing financing.net nmls 182334 nmlsconsumerccess.org dot apr for rates in the five starts at 6.799%. For well qualified borrowers. Call 809 06240 for details about credit costs and terms.

Patton Stu
It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today, maybe back tomorrow, maybe not till Monday, not not sure. But he's recovering from kidney stones, and that's just a painful, painful situation. Yeah. So we haven't had the chance to talk about the JD Vance pick since it happened.

What were your thoughts on JD Vance?

Glenn Beck
He's the guy I thought Trump was going to pick, and I thought it was the right pick for Donald Trump. Again, I think part of the calculation here is Donald Trump is a guy who people have very well formed opinions over, and his vice presidential pick probably doesn't make a difference either way in.

Patton Stu
Any major way as far as getting elected.

Glenn Beck
As far as getting elected. So why not pick the person you believe is most aligned with you, that can carry your flag forward, and that.

Patton Stu
Is to have done that.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, that seems to be where he landed. I wasn't sure he was going to land that way. I think that's what I would have done if I was in his position. And he wound up doing it. And we did a list a while ago of all the things that, the reasons, the things that he would think about in picking a vp, and he checks off all the boxes. And the one that I think people ignore a little bit is the typical thing that people do when they're picking a vice president. You pick it to help some group. Right? Oh, well, we're going to pick Marco Rubio.

Patton Stu
You can't have two white guys, so you need a minority.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. And I never understood that.

Basically from the idea that Donald Trump is the anti woke guy, he's not the guy that makes decisions based on identity politics. At least that's what we've always known about him. So why did everyone perspective, you know, expect he was going to take, well, Tim Scott. Because he needs to pick a black guy. Like, Tim Scott has his upsides for sure. But, like, I don't think that's how he was making the decision with JD Vance. I think he gets a guy who's a good communicator, who's loyal, who is, you know, who can raise a lot of money. It's another thing you want out of a vice president who is willing to go with him on sort of a lighter touch on the abortion issue. Not necessarily my point of view, again, thinking about how the approach he wants to have going into this election.

He's good on the, with the media. And as far as him addressing a specific group, I think actually Vance does a better job with that than, than people talk about.

The key states in this election, if it's going to be close, are going to be Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. And Wild Vance isn't from one of those states. He's from that region. He's in that region. He knows that region. He knows the problems of that region. Region. He knows the problems of working class voters in the, in that region. He wrote a book about it and, you know, the book was not exactly the same way he's presenting these issues today. It's a little bit more, uh, it's a little more tough love, I'd say. Like, it's a little like, hey, you know, you're causing all these problems yourself, guys. Last night he talked about how basically, like, the government is a bigger people. These people are often victims of the government. I think both can be true at some level. Level.

But I think thought he did a good job presenting that. And the reporting about this is that behind the scenes Trump is like, what are you going to do with JD Vance? And his answer was, we're just going to leave him in Pennsylvania. He's just going to go there and just hit Pennsylvania, hit Michigan, hit Wisconsin, hit that region. And he knows how to talk to those people because he was one of them and dealt with a lot of the same problems they're dealing with. So I think it's a good pick. He's been criticized a little bit as maybe it's a little bit of a luxury pick. Like he sees himself as winning now at this point. And he doesn't have to try to appeal to moderates. Right? He's going with his guy. And there's some, you can see that being a factor. If he loses, it will be criticized.

You know, the Vance pick will be criticized as an element there, but I think it's the right pick for him.

Patton Stu
Here's some of what JD Vance had to say at the convention night.

Glenn Beck
Now, thanks to these policies that Biden and other out of touch politicians in Washington gave us, our country was flooded with cheap chinese goods, with cheap foreign labor. And in the decades to come, deadly chinese fentanyl. Joe Biden screwed up and my community paid the price.

Now, I was lucky.

Despite the closing factories and the growing addiction in towns like mine in my life, I had a guardian angel by my side.

She was an old woman who could barely walk, but she was tough as nails.

I called her mamaw, the name we hillbillies gave to our grandmothers.

Mamaw raised me as her own.

Excuse me. Mamaw raised me as my mother struggled with addiction.

Mamal was, in so many ways, a woman of contradiction. She loved the Lord, ladies and gentlemen. She was a woman of very deep christian faith.

But she also loved the f word.

I'm not kidding. She could make a sailor blush.

Now, she once told me, when she found out that I was spending too much time with a local kid who was known for dealing drugs, that if I ever hung out with that kid again, she would run him over with her car.

That's true. And she said, JD, no one will ever find out about it.

I mean, good delivery on these lines. Great story.

Patton Stu
Yes, ma'am.

And they start chanting. Ma'am.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, I will say. Could have done without a lot of the chanting.

Patton Stu
Yeah, I don't like the chant.

Glenn Beck
I don't need the chanting. You don't need to interrupt him every time he makes a good point and say the thing he just said.

I will say.

Patton Stu
I'm not a big fan of that either.

Glenn Beck
And it. And JD was struggling a little bit with what to do with those moments. Like, he was at one point, chanting. Like, they were chanting USA or something, and he was going, USA, you. He didn't want to actually scream into the microphone along with the crowd, so he was mouthing the words and you could hear the whispering being picked up by the microphone. It was weird. It's just tough to know what to do with those spots. The bottom line is just sit there and smile until they're done.

So that was a little strange. But honestly, it's about my biggest criticism of that speech. I thought it was really well delivered. I thought he was really good.

He was more engaging than I've seen him before. He's been on the show, what, a dozen times? And he's good on policy. He knows his stuff.

He's very, very smart. He's good at arguing. I hadn't seen that side of him, which was really. Just engaging.

He was really good.

Patton Stu
Yeah, he was. He was funny.

Glenn Beck
His timing was good. When he went for comedy, the timing worked.

He had a bit of that.

Vivek Ramaswamy never says, um, never, you know, stutters. Never does any of that stuff, which was interesting. Now it's. It's a speech a lot easier. Vivek's doing it off the top of his head, but it was interesting. It was very clean speech, I guess, is how I would put it.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Did you like the pick. And did you like the speech?

Patton Stu
No, I loved the speech. I did like the pick. I've got some differences with JD ondemen on Paul, abortion being one of them. I'm sure you have that same issue.

Glenn Beck
I do.

But he doesn't have that issue with Donald Trump, it seems at this point.

Patton Stu
You seem to be like minded on that. In fact, it seems like he adopted Trump's position on the abortion pill. So that's a problem for me.

Glenn Beck
Part of being a vice president is subservience. Yeah, it is. It just is. You have to be able to let, like, I don't know, JD Vance was never super strong, like, known for his abortion stand stance.

But it does seem like he's essentially adopted Trump's stance, which, you know, is, again, it's not exactly clear what it is right now. Look, his record is really good on the issue, and I think that's what I keep falling back on.

Patton Stu
Yeah, me too.

Glenn Beck
I mean, the guy got, you know.

Patton Stu
He appointed three justices that helped sway this thing and get rid of Roe v. Wade. We. What else have talked about this many times. We never thought that would happen.

Glenn Beck
No, I didn't think that would happen in my lifetime.

Patton Stu
Nope. And it did.

Glenn Beck
So it did. And he deserves, and he deserves some trust on the issue.

Patton Stu
Frankly, he does.

Glenn Beck
I don't like the direction of this right now. He deserves some trust on the issue, I guess. And so that is a factor here.

Patton Stu
But I think he's a good pick. My favorite pick would have been DeSantis, but that was never going to happen.

Glenn Beck
Never going to happen. So, I mean, I don't think DeSantis wanted it anyway.

Patton Stu
It's like the people who call, we've talked about this, too. It's like the people call sports radio talk shows and say, hey, mikey, I just thinking, what if Mickey Mantle and Babe ruined Ruth and Joe DiMaggio all played with, like Don Mattingly, and then you brought in Roger Clemens and they.

Glenn Beck
Were on the Kansas City Royals, right?

Patton Stu
Do you think they'd win the World Series or what?

Glenn Beck
Mikey, you know, that is kind of, you get into that fantasy league world where you'd like to have this guy. I think JD Vance makes a lot of sense of the people that he had thrown, that had been thrown out there as serious contenders. I think he was the best pick for Trump.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
You know, like, I didn't under. I love saying bergamentum and bergamania. I don't understand at all.

Patton Stu
We never really were a part of. I, in reality, was not a part of bergamentum. But what is interesting about the Vance pick and makes it a little bit challenging is what he has said in the past, because the left is just beating him over the head with that right now, just inundating it with these past quotes. Okay, I get it. He didn't like Trump at first.

Glenn Beck
So what?

Patton Stu
Neither did we. Then you know what happened. His presidency.

And that turned out way better than I thought it would. And for Vance, too.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

I don't even understand this. Like, I saw a political article said, here are the quotes that could wind up burning JD Vance, and they had all the quotes of him against Trump. It's like, how could it burn him? He was chosen to be vice president. Like, what more damage could be done?

Patton Stu
And what Trump didn't know, he said these things.

Glenn Beck
Of course Trump knew.

And one of the big reports about JD Vance and how he became vice president was that he went to Donald Trump.

I don't remember the year might have been 2021. I think it was 2021. And he went to Donald Trump and he said, look, they had a meeting, and he didn't try to hide from his past comments. He said, look, I got caught up in the narratives about you, and I was wrong.

And now watching you and watching what you've done and who you are, I realized I was wrong.

Patton Stu
And he has mentioned. He has said that multiple times.

Glenn Beck
Yep. And he went right to him and said, I owned up to it. Owned up to it. And, like, that is how you. And look, Donald Trump loves a supporter, but you know what he loves more? A convert. He freaking loves a convert. If you hated him before and now you've been turned around by his I actions, he loves you. And that is. That's kind of what happened with JD Vance. He just owned up to it. And he went out and showed that he believed it because he kept defending him and arguing for these policies publicly. He didn't ask for a lot in return.

One of the things that was also reported in a pretty well reported article about him, I think it was in the New York Times. But I could be wrong on this. But one of the things that impressed Trump about Vance was that he didn't come begging for stuff all the time.

Patton Stu
Yeah, he doesn't like that.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
Begging like a dog in my office.

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Patton Stu
That's his thing. He's mentioned that about a lot of people.

Glenn Beck
There's only two things I think he asked for, which was one was asked him to endorse a Senate candidate in Ohio. And the other one was, I think it was a railroad safety bill. He wanted to get his backing on, and that was it. Over multiple years.

Patton Stu
Yeah. And I don't think, I don't think Trump likes it when people come and say, hey, you know what? I'd be great for your vp. No, I'm the guy you need to. He doesn't like that. And that's one of the reasons probably Carrie Lake was sort of jettisoned. Yeah. She wanted it so bad. And she made it really apparent.

Glenn Beck
Really apparent.

And not to mention, she's now running for Senate. She's, she wasn't really a candidate. I mean, if you look at, you know, Rubio is an interesting one, which he really has come a long way toward Trump since back in 2016. And when he was, was first sort of normally critical, then we had like a two week period where he was like, wise ass insult comment.

And then he's become more on the Trump side. It didn't. But, like, that's a good example of, I think politically, Rubio makes a lot of sense because Rubio, he could maybe give you some of the hispanic vote potentially.

They're both from Florida. There was a conflict there that was reportedly part of the issue, why they didn't pick him. But at the end of the day, like, Rubio is like a supporter of, of the, the effort in Ukraine, for example. And he is not completely aligned with Donald Trump. He's an old tea party guy. He's, you know, turned into, you know, he's obviously been there for a while now, and I think is more of a traditional Republican than Donald Trump is. And at the end of the day, if Donald Trump wins and he has four years and Marco Rubio is the heir apparent, like, is Donald Trump's legacy going forward, or is it Marco Rubio, who just has a totally different opinion on a lot of stuff? I think that would have been a risk with JD Vance. He eliminates that risk. He sets forward a path for his viewpoints to be the future of the Republican Party for a long time. You might like that, you might hate it. But the bottom line is, if you're a candidate running for office, it's got to be a central part of what you're thinking is, especially if your maximum amount of terms is one from here on out, he's only got four years. And so if he, yeah, he can get a lot of stuff done in four years. But if he wants his policy platform to be the thing going forward in the future, a more populist, nationalist version of the republican party, JD Vance is a great pick for him.

Patton Stu
We'll explore this more coming up in 1 minute.

Glenn Beck
I don't think it hurts him either. The criticism that way, I don't think is a big deal. Let's talk about Patriot mobile. Wouldn't it be great if we didn't have to deal with a stalled economy, inflation, endless wars, the relentless assault by our government and media on our american values? Wouldn't that be nice? Wouldn't that be nice? Well, you know, you wake up unfortunately, in a place where you don't have that necessarily. We can change things, but we can't change it overnight. We can take steps in a positive direction, one that will lead us to where we want to be. So think about changing to Patriot mobile. You're going to get a whole month for free. So that's great value.

Patton Stu
So have you been following the convention much this week?

Glenn Beck
Of course, been watching a bunch of the speeches, was very interested in the JD Vance thing. Did a reaction live on YouTube. YouTube. YouTube.com studoesamerica. We're doing live. Probably do one after the speech tonight, the Trump speech, I give you the live analysis of that. So if you go there and click the bell for notifications, you'll be notified when we go live. And these have been really fun taking your questions on all these big news events as we go through the election cycle. I think it's been honestly really good. Yeah, I think they've done a good job.

Patton Stu
It's gone well. There had been no huge incidents that would taint it.

Glenn Beck
Yep.

Patton Stu
The hope and pray that continues tonight, these days. Yeah, you gotta hope this is when Trump speaks. Is. Is tonight. So that's gonna be highly watched. Fox has been doing really well, as you might expect, during the RNC convention. I, I think they've got almost as many viewers as the other mainstream competitors combined. So they love this. And, and you, it's, it's always, it's always fun to have the Fox people on the set in Milwaukee. You never know what's gonna happen, what kind of hijinks can ensue.

Glenn Beck
Can I ask you an old person question?

Patton Stu
Yeah, Pat. Mm hmm.

Glenn Beck
The JD Vance speech rolling out your vice presidential nominee, a person who wild and well known to maybe this audience and well known to people who, I don't know, read Hill biliology, I guess.

And people in Ohio is not very.

Patton Stu
Number one again this week, by the way.

Glenn Beck
Number one, anyway, is not a particularly well known figure in America. JD Vance is not, is not like, even like a Marco Rubio, who people are very well aware of. He is a new senator. He's not particularly well known. You're introducing him to America.

The speech started at, I believe, 11:00 p.m. eastern time.

That is really pushing it late.

And I know, I guess I'm getting old and I don't want to stay up too late. Now you do a show that starts at, like, I don't know, 01:00 in the morning or something. So, I mean, you, I couldn't have possibly stayed up for that speech. No, you watch it in the morning.

Patton Stu
No, you had to watch it in the morning. Yeah, I waited till this morning and.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, you couldn't watch it live. And, like, I think a lot of people, I mean, I think about that all the time when, like, the World Series comes on and the game starts at 09:00 p.m. and then it's not over till like 12:30 a.m. eastern time. And it's like, what are they trying to do? Like, kids, all the kids are in bed. A lot of people want to sleep.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
It seemed like a very late starting time for that. It is, to me, it is a.

Patton Stu
Late starting time for that.

Glenn Beck
And I imagine tonight is going to be one of the most watched convention speeches of all time. The guy who's almost assassinated a couple days ago comes out to speak for the first time. But I don't know. They're going to run it really, really late. Is everyone going to be, wait for it.

Patton Stu
I hope it's at a decent hour. Like, I don't know, three in the afternoon would be good for me.

Glenn Beck
For you, that would be good. I don't think that.

Patton Stu
Three. All right.

Glenn Beck
No, I don't think that's a good idea. Donald, please don't listen to him.

Glenn Beck.

Buying or selling a home isn't just one difficult decision. It's a whole host of big decisions. Decisions. And the scary part is almost all of your decisions fall into this category when it comes to buying or selling a home.

If you care about having the best real estate agent, you know how important it is. Because, look, when you're buying or selling a home, your real estate agent can change the whole situation from the best experience you can have where you're making a bunch of money and you're really excited about that outcome. Or you might find out that you have a huge, like, 1% fee that you have to pay to your hoa when you sell the house.

Patton Stu
That's preposterous. Some people happen.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. No, no. Some people have found out that when they would sell her house, they got.

Patton Stu
They didn't read the small, the really fine print at the bottom of the Hoa covenant.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Think about that. I mean, 1% of a house is a lot of money.

Patton Stu
What kind of dummy wouldn't?

Glenn Beck
There are people like that. And don't we? Don't be like Pat who? Real estate agents.

I don't think there is a nice recovery from your surgery from kidney stones. Let's be honest about it.

Patton Stu
Just being out of the pain.

Glenn Beck
He's wallowing. Yeah. What I understand, he is not out of the pain.

Patton Stu
Oh.

Glenn Beck
I mean, when you have a surgery for that, it's also painful. Maybe not as painful.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
That's going through the whole process of that. Yeah.

Patton Stu
But they usually give you stuff, you.

Glenn Beck

Patton Stu
Mm hmm.

Glenn Beck
Okay, so Glenn's drugged up, listening to the show at home, wondering who these people are talking. And I'll be back hopefully tomorrow.

Patton Stu
Joe Biden. It's still Glenn.

Glenn Beck
Oh, artist Pat and Stuart.

Patton Stu
Who are these? Why am I not wearing pants?

Glenn Beck
Anyway.

Patton Stu
I love this. As part of a factory check, I was doing some research because during the Lester Holt interview, he again said something outrageous about Biden or about Donald Trump and the lies that he told. And so I thought, okay, what is this figure of 30 lies that Trump told during the debate, as opposed to Biden only lying nine times what was supposedly a 21 lie gap there. But in the course of looking this up, I found this other quote from him where he was talking about presidential historians, and he said 159 or 58.

I don't know an exact number. Okay, that's quite a range of 101 historians.

Glenn Beck
So 58 or 100 or 159. Okay.

Patton Stu
We don't know.

They've had meetings and they remember when all the presidential historians got together and they had their meetings.

Glenn Beck
The presidential historian summit.

Patton Stu
Yes.

Glenn Beck
Okay, I remember that.

Patton Stu
Yeah, they did the summit and they voted. Okay, who's the worst president in american history?

They said he was the worst in all american history. That's a fact. That's not. Congesture, conjunction.

Glenn Beck
Congesture. That would be the type of work.

Patton Stu
It would. Yeah, it would.

Glenn Beck
It's somewhere between conjecture and congestion.

Patton Stu
Yes, exactly.

Now, the AP fact checked that, and they actually say that's almost right, but not quite. The survey in question, a project from professors at the University of Houston and coastal Carolina University. You know, those. Those two institutions get together on a pretty regular basis, make it together.

Glenn Beck
You throw the scoreboards out the window.

Patton Stu
You know you do. And apparently it included 154 usable responses from 525 respondents invited to participate.

Glenn Beck
Wait, so three quarters of the people couldn't figure out how to fit a ballot, who the worst president was?

Patton Stu
Right.

Glenn Beck
Good professors we have in this country.

What do I do with this panel paper?

I mean, that was not one I questioned at all. Every one of the historians, they always say the same crap. They also put Barack Obama near the top. It's nonsense. They put FDR, a guy who imprisoned the japanese american population, is number one all the time. Who the hell cares what they say?

It's idiotic. And I went through the Trump lies is interesting because this has been their pushback on the debate. We. Yeah, sure, Biden had a bad day. He didn't finish any sentences and almost fell over 43 times. But at least he didn't lie. Now, of course, he did lie many, many times, but the Trump lies were like. I was like, well, they keep saying he lied all the time. What did he lie about?

The one I remember looking at.

Can you classify this as a lie? You can.

The lie was.

Well, look, everybody, everybody. All the great people, everybody. All the legal experts, every single one, unanimous.

Unanimous that they all wanted to overturn Roe versus Wade. Okay? We all know that not everyone agreed they wanted to overturn Roe versus wade. Of course that's an exaggeration of a true statement, which is a lot of left wing legal scholars who support abortion believe that ruling was flimsy. They believe that ruling was just legally poorly decided. That doesn't mean they loved, they loved Donald Trump. It doesn't mean they love, you know, every one of his supreme Court justices, just in a narrow way, including people like Ruth Bader Ginsburg early in her life. Many other legal scholars, we at the time back, you know, in June of 2022, talked about a wide swath of them, and they said, look, yeah, we want abortion rights to be a thing in America. But this case was very flimsy, was decided improvised properly. And so that's what he was getting at. It's obviously not true that everyone agreed that's not true, but they chalk it.

Patton Stu
Up to being a lie.

Glenn Beck
Is that a lie? I mean, it's not. It's not true. So you want to classify it as a lie. I guess you can go there. But, like, just knowing that also is Donald Trump, is Trump Tower the most glorious building ever built? Well, no, probably not. It's a nice building. Yeah, it's a fancy building. It's an expensive building. Is it the greatest thing we've ever seen?

Everybody agrees that my, my penthouse is the most beautiful. Like, we all know that's just how he talks.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
So, like, they're stretching to get that number high to defend Joe Biden. Democrats in that moment and try to attack Donald Trump. But it's kind of silly, right?

Patton Stu
Like, very silly.

Glenn Beck
Human beings who have watched Donald Trump and have been on this earth for the past 50 years that he's been in our public life, all understand the way he speaks at this point. Not a surprise.

Patton Stu
Yes. Meanwhile, the lies of Joe Biden during the debate go completely unresponded to, from these fact check agencies. Anyway, anyway, I've said too much.

Glenn Beck
I better stop.

Better stop.

Patton Stu
But what's fascinating is that when he sat down the other day, it was Monday, I think, with the Lester Holt interview that he did, he was immediately pissed. He was immediately filled with hyperbole that they accused Trump of all the time. Time.

And he was very evasive. He was very defensive, and he was just nasty the entire interview. I mean, he went into it nasty, weird.

Glenn Beck
Because there's not an adversarial situation. You would think.

Patton Stu
Yeah. Could you. NBC News has treated you unfairly. Come on. Does anybody buy that? I hope not.

Glenn Beck
Certainly. It's insane, honestly. Like, we've seen a lot of delusional statements from Joe Biden. I think the idea that NBC News hasn't been mean enough to Donald Trump is about the most delusional thing Joe Biden has ever said.

I mean, that is certainly one of them shows he is lost, because if you don't think they've gone after Donald Trump enough, you're crazy. But there was a, there was a segment of that interview that got no attention because it was just after the Eileen Cannon overturning of the special prosecutor in the classified documents case against Trump. And he. So he asked, uh, Lester Holt about it, and its response was a catastrophe. I mean, he just. You'll hear him. He just stops in the middle of it, in the middle of trying to introduce a thought, and it just, like, the whole thing just reboots live on camera. It's bad. Let me, let me give you this clip, because it was not shared on social media a lot, and there's a lot to it. And listen, Judge Cannon dismissed the documents cases you may have heard in Mar a Lago.

Patton Stu
Can I first get your reaction to that?

D
I'm not surprised.

It comes from the immunity decision the Supreme Court ruled on. And Clarence Thomas, in his dissent, said that independent prosecutors appointed by the attorney general aren't legit. That's the basis in which judge moved to dismiss.

And.

But I didn't depend a prosecutor to look at me. They spent months of my going through, and I was totally cooperative in and out of my house. There were, I don't know, the last time in, there were, like, 1012 agents in my house for 9 hours on a company going through every single thing I had that's appropriate. And they looked at me and concluded I didn't do a damn thing wrong.

Not when they concluded that it's.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

D
Well, the basis upon which the case was thrown out, I find specious, because I don't agree with what Clarence Thomas dissent and or the Supreme Court decision on immunity.

Glenn Beck
So we kind of talked over the beginning of that pause, but. Wow.

So three things I'll point out to you.

Number one, Clarence Thomas was in the majority of that decision. He didn't write a dissent.

Patton Stu
Okay.

Glenn Beck
He wrote a concurrence.

Patton Stu
All right.

Glenn Beck
Something totally different.

Patton Stu
But yes, that he just said the opposite of what actually happened.

Glenn Beck
That is a nitpick, I will admit. Is that a lie?

Patton Stu
Are you gonna hold him to that standard?

Glenn Beck
Certainly Donald Trump would be hit for that's a lie. One of his lies. Now, he didn't. Look, it's minor, but, like, you should know that it was a concurrence. He was in the majority of that decision, which is what you're complaining about, he didn't write a dissent at all.

He wrote a concurrence. But beyond that, the second thing you started reacting to, which he says, well, they came to my house, they looked around, they concluded I didn't do a damn thing wrong. That is a blatant lie. Blatant lie. Does he get a lie for that?

Patton Stu
No.

Glenn Beck
I will tell you right now, I am wearing a shirt that highlights that exactly the, her report.

Joe BIden, elderly man with poor memory.

That is a quote from the report. And the reason why we, speaker two.

Patton Stu
You didn't just make that up?

Glenn Beck
No, I didn't just make that up. That's it. That's a quote from the report. And the reason why that quote is in the report is because they found you did do a damn thing wrong. Many damn thing wrong. But you were so out of it during the interview, you that Robert Herb believed he couldn't get a conviction on your crimes because you were an elderly man with a poor memory that people wouldn't be able to really throw in jail. They'd feel too bad for you.

A fascinating statement, by the way, stew doesmerch.com, if you want to get the shirt, stu doesmerch.com. dot, the code is stu ten. I don't know how long he's going to be in the race. I got to sell these things while we still have him in.

But so that's the second thing. And then can we play that? I don't know if we can play that second part again right around that period. So you can hear that pause. He just, he sets it up with, but my generic point is, well, pause.

And then it's just silence. He's just looking at the ground for multiple seconds. Let's listen to this again in full context.

D
Speaker two went through and I was totally cooperative in and out of my house. There were, I don't know, the last time in the room, like 1012 agents in my house for 9 hours on a company going through every single thing I had that's appropriate. And they looked at me and concluded I didn't do a damn thing wrong. But my generic point is that it's well, bases upon which the country, look at that.

Patton Stu
That is like, it's amazing.

Glenn Beck
That is, it's almost Mitch McConnell esque.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
How long was that pause? Eight. I mean, between the foot where he says and he sets up what my generic point is. This is an easy thing. He's just said it. He just went through the Clarence Thomas descent.

Patton Stu
Well, look, mister partisan.

Glenn Beck
Oh, okay.

Patton Stu
Yeah.

He just took a jet to that location and he had jet lag.

Glenn Beck
Wait, what?

Patton Stu
Like, in addition, he was tired. Okay, okay. And the other thing you have to factor in here is that he didn't feel good. He probably had the beginnings of Covid-19.

Glenn Beck
Ah, maybe he got it from lester.

Patton Stu
Maybe.

Glenn Beck
Maybe that's the problem.

Patton Stu
Maybe.

Glenn Beck
I will say none of this and none of these criticisms. Cause I'm also doing a show on studos America tonight where we go through his NAACP speech, because this is another one that got past everybody. And there's all sorts of massive problems with that one. But I want to be clear that none of these things should make him step out of this race.

I don't think. Don't let now these criticisms sound like, wow, this guy should get out of the race immediately. No, I want to make sure that.

Patton Stu
Is the opposite of what I'm saying.

Glenn Beck
Stay in the race.

Patton Stu
Triple 8727 B E c K. This.

Glenn Beck
July, we celebrate the birth of our nation and remember the heroes who fought for our freedoms. But you know that some Americans today still don't have the freedoms of life and liberty. Those people are actually people. They're not clumps of cells. They are people who have their lives ended by the horrors of abortion. And this is why Preborn is so incredibly important and worth your support.

Preborn is the largest pro life organization in the country, and they're leading the charge to put an end to the atrocity of abortion. Every day they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby's born. And I know there's been a lot of back and forth about the RNC and like the convention and the platform and not being strong enough on abortion. At the end of the day, we're gonna have to convince people. People are gonna have to have their hearts turned on this issue. The laws can help, but really, the end of the day, we have to convert people and save lives that we can actually save. Preborn does this all the time. Will you stand with Preborn? One ultrasound is just $28, and five ultrasounds only 140. So why not donate? Dial pound 250 today. Say the keyword baby pound 250.

The keyword is baby or donate securely@preborn.com. beck. Preborn.com beck. It's Preborn. Sponsored by. Who else would you expect but Preborn?

The Glenn Beck program will be right back. Back.

We living, we're living through incredible times right now. This effort to get Joe Biden out a couple of months before the election is unprecedented and incredible, really incredible.

I want to give you this clip from yesterday. We have a president that now has Covid-19 he is self isolating. He's 81 years old, of course. So this is a significant health issue. But he seems to be fine.

Here he is just a couple of hours before telling everybody he had Covid. Speaker one, is there anything that you would look to you personally, not anybody else, not other pundits, not even perhaps family members that you would look to, to say, if I see that, I will reevaluate.

D
If there had some medical condition that emerged, if somebody, doctors came to me and said, you got this problem, that problem.

Patton Stu
Uh oh.

D
But does he really have Covid in the whole debate?

And look, when I originally ran, you may remember it, I said I was going to be a transitional candidate and I thought that I'd be able to move from this, just pass it on to someone else.

But I didn't anticipate things getting so, so, so divided.

Glenn Beck
What? And quite frankly, I think this is just nonsense. I mean, first of all, he ran for president saying he ran because the country was so divided.

So this is all nonsense. He's just making this stuff up, though. I will say stay in the race, Joe. You can do it. You can push through this. Joseph, you. Joseph Robinette Biden, the fighting spirit of the Robinet family. You can do it. By the way, I did mention earlier in the show, look for the Democrats to start leaking, that he is going to get out, to force him out whether he said it or not.

New article out from axios just breaking behind the curtain. Top dems now believe Biden will exit as early as this weekend.

Now is that true? Is he really going to give up the presidency while he has Covid I mean, it just, it's not, I don't know, maybe it's real, maybe it will happen. But they want it to happen. They're doing everything they can to force him out. And Joe, get that steel spine of yours, that Biden fighting spirit together and you tell them to stand down. You tell them the show goes on. Leonardo DiCaprio, wolf of Wall street, give that speech loudly, directly into Nancy Pelosi's face and tell her you're staying in this race.
