This is the Glenn Beck program.

Get yours now@mantisx.com. that's mantisx.com, you know, and if you have the, if you have the shakes, you could use a stabilizing brace. Now, Supreme Court came out yesterday and said, yeah, they can't do that. No, I'm sorry. It was not the Supreme Court. It was the Texas Supreme Court that said this. It's going to go all the way to the Supreme Court. But they say that the ATF just overstepped their bounds and they're not allowed just to make arbitrary rules.

Yeah. Yeah.

Now on the other side of that, the government just changing the rules, not being consistent and doing what they want is the abortion drug.

Let me welcome into the conversation Jason Butril, who is, who is sitting in for Stu.

No, who's sitting in for Pat, who is sitting in for Stu. Apparently, nobody wants to work with me for more than a day.

But welcome to the program, Jason, our head researcher on the Glenn Beck program and also head writer of our tv show. So, Jason.

Jason Buttrill
Yes, sir.

Glenn Beck
I'm trying to figure this out.

The court says you can, you can't, you can't ban the stabilizing brace.

Okay.

And the court says you can't do that because you just can't make up rules and, you know, just change things on your own.

Except with the abortion drug. The reason why that was brought up in court is I think it's one in 20 girls that take this abortion drug, end up going to the hospital. Okay. It's really, really dangerous.

And it also, you don't know if it's an ectopic pregnancy or not, which, if you don't figure that one out, you can die quickly.

There's. You don't even need your doctor to prescribe it.

It's crazy. We don't.

For some reason, the FDA just won't allow people to try cancer drugs when they're dying.

Well, no, no. It's got to go through the whole process here. But this one, apparently, they don't have to go through the whole process. They just decided that, you know what? It's good. You just get it. You just get it over the. Get it by mail. You know what? Mail it in, like hair loss treatment or erectile dysfunction tabs.

How can the government be saying one thing to one agency and another to another agency?

Jason Buttrill
Yeah, it feels like a kind of a, it's a giant step forward on the, on the gun, pistol brace thing, especially for the bureaucracy. I was reading through the judge's response there, his written remarks, and he was like, yeah, they just never really kind of, they never bothered to really tell us why they were doing this. They failed to answer any questions on the reasoning for doing it. So this just doesn't make sense. Well, yeah, it's obvious because that's how the deep state works, which ultimately is what this goes down to.

You can't just, depending on whatever administration, just start making up your own rules based off of no actual, you know, research or reasoning. You gotta give us a reason for doing this stuff. But not in the case of federal abortion. Like, not for that. Like, yeah, it's okay. You can just make up whatever random rule you want.

No big deal there. And it's funny, honestly, usually the FDA is, like, over sensitive to this stuff, you know, like, oh, but, doc, I need this experimental drug. It's going to save my life. And they're like, yeah, tough luck, kid. But in this case. Nah, go ahead. Doesn't matter how dangerous it is. We're going to. We're going to allow it.

Glenn Beck
I wonder if the FDA. We've been looking at this all wrong. Maybe they'd give you a cancer drug.

If it gave you cancer, you go ahead and have that. You go ahead and take that one. Take that one. Cause they seem fine with. If you're killing a baby, go ahead. But if you're trying to save somebody's life, so maybe if we. The cancer drugs actually killed you faster, maybe they would approve that faster.

Jason Buttrill
That's like hacking the system.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you. Thank you very much.

When does the Chevron case. Where was that? Where was that? Summary of what's pending in front of the Supreme Court here.

Jason Buttrill
Oh, in the one note.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, it's a pending SCOTUS. Okay, got it. So let me look for the Chevron case.

What the.

Jason Buttrill
Good luck finding it in that, by the way.

Glenn Beck
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

I asked Matt, who is really, really smart, I said, could you just boil down the cases for me so I know what each case is when they start to announce the decisions, and just boil it down so it's easy to understand.

Brown versus United States, a case in which the court held that a state drug conviction counts as an acca predicate if it involved a drug on the federal schedules at the time of the conviction. What the hell? What? What.

What is that case?

Jason Buttrill
Something about banning dog leashes in public parks, I think.

Glenn Beck
A case in which the court, the Campos Chavez versus Garland, a case in which the court will decide whether the government provides adequate notice under eight USC when it serves an initial notice document that does not include the time and place of proceedings, followed by an additional document containing that information. What the hell?

Jason Buttrill
Douglas? Die.

Glenn Beck
What?

We assigned this to the wrong person. We signed this to a super smart person. They're like, that makes sense.

No, it doesn't.

A case in which the court will decide whether a fourth Amendment malicious prosecution claim can proceed as to a baseless criminal charge so long as other charges brought alongside the baseless charge are supported by probable cause.

What is that, the Trump case? I don't.

Jason Buttrill
Do they intentionally write them that way? So you have no freaking clue what's happening?

Glenn Beck
I think they do. I think they do. I really do. I know. Matt. Did he have to? He's like, I. I show how stupid this guy is, man.

Listen, listen. Always hire people that are smarter than you.

That's a lie, man. It makes you look stupid.

Court will decide whether denial of a visa. No, I need the.

Anyway, somewhere in here is the Chevron case, right?

Am I right, Jason?

Jason Buttrill
Gotta be.

Glenn Beck
Cause that's being decided this year. Do you know what the Chevron case is?

Jason Buttrill
I am not one of the smart ones, so I'm not going to be able to decipher the legalese. So I don't know.

Glenn Beck
Okay. All right. But you know what? The Chevron case. Have you heard of the Chevron case?

Jason Buttrill
I don't know what this.

Glenn Beck
Okay. It involves a gas station. Let's move on.

No, it is the one that says, the argument is the agencies cannot just make up new rules. It has to be done by Congress. If it's not stated in their official work from Congress that they can't just make up these new rules because that's the deep state. That's what the deep state is doing everything. You feel. You'll notice Congress isn't passing any laws. They're not. What are they.

What have they done? What have they done? Nothing. They're not passing any laws. They'll pass big bills like the green new bill that are so. Or the new green bill or the new Green green law, whatever deal.

The Green New Deal bill. Yes. So anyway, they're passing things like that, but loaded inside it will say, and the secretary will decide, you know how to figure this one out. Well, no, you can't do that. You can't give that much power to an unelected individual or an agency.

And the Chevron law, if this. If they uphold that concept that the agencies were not ever constitutionally given that kind of power, the whole world changes, and we should know that soon in one of these.

One of these decisions that are coming out, I don't know which one, because none of these were written in common sense.

Jason Buttrill
I feel like. I feel like that was the one thing that our founders, in their infinite wisdom and, you know, in their divine, you know, plan, actually for our country, never really anticipated what the Barack bureaucracy became like, what is happening now. Like, you know, every time you hear one of these rules from, you know, the ATF or the FDA or any other letter agency, you know, it's something at this point unconstitutional that the administration wants to do. They know they can't do it. So let's just kind of skirt around and go through the FDA.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, none of these. This is not constitutional, what's happening in our country. Not constitutional. You can't just do that now. You know, presidents before did it through executive order. So we have that. And the agencies just unleashed, you know, they can do whatever they want. Here is actually the, here's the case.

Loper bright enterprises versus Raymond Raymondo, a case in which the court will decide whether to overrule its decision in Chevron versus natural forces defense counsel. Per the New York Times, the court will decide whether to overrule a foundational 1984 precedent on the power of government agencies. It said the courts must defer to agencies reasonable interpretations of ambiguous statutes. So they are supposed to be able to say, well, you know, that's reasonable. That's within.

But are any of these things reasonable?

When they say, we're not going to, we're not going to take away your gas stove, we're going to take away all of your gas, imply appliances.

That's not reasonable. That's not what, that's not what this was made to do.

You know, the EPA was not granted the power to take away all the things that they've said to us for years are so good for the environment. We got to have natural gas. Cars. Got to have them. And then when you get to a situation where you can have enough natural gas and you can use natural gas. No, we can't use natural gas.

This, this is like the straw thing. This drives me nuts. I was in.

Where was I? Oh, I think I was overseas, so it makes sense.

But I, somebody gave me a glass and it was a, it was a paper straw.

And I'm like, dear Lord.

And I took it out and I just looked at the guy and I said, do you have any straws? And he looked at me like, yeah, well, that's a straw. No, no, this is mulch in about two minutes.

When I was growing up, we couldn't have paper straws because we're cutting down too many trees and it's bad for the environment.

So. And we celebrated, thank God no more paper straws. And they started making plastic straws. Now everybody wants to go back to paper. What happened to the trees?

What happened about clearing the whole rainforest if we have, you know, too many paper straws? Oh, just, you know what Donald Trump said yesterday? He was having a meeting with Congress, and I think only three or four republicans didn't attend. Everybody seems to be walking in lockstep now.

But, you know, he said, we're gonna, we're gonna make America great again. We're gonna restore common sense. That's all that really needs to happen. That's it. Just restore common sense. For the love of Pete, can we resuscitate that? Back in just a minute. Diane lives in California.

I'm not going to hold that against her. I mean, you might. You might. Diane, run. Get out of there. Anyway, Diane writes in, she's, she said, have a pretty major problem with rough greens. She said, I can't keep up with this crazy dog. Now, I'm happy to see that rough greens is, you know, what, what rough greens has done for old blue, but I can't keep up. Yeah. The side effects of rough greens might include having a dog that you have to chase around the house sometimes, because, you know, he finds that he has more and more energy and he's like a puppy again. I mean, it was, it was remarkable in uno. Just remarkable. It's not a dog food. It's a supplement developed by natural naturopathic doctor Dennis Black. Now, this is something you sprinkle on your dog's food, and it has all the vitamins and minerals. It's. It's not a stimulant for the dog. They just start feeling better. They start feeling young again.

So get it for your dog. Try it out. They're gonna, they're gonna give you the first trial bag for free. You just pay for the shipping. You go to rough greens. Ruff greens.com beck. Roughgreens.com Beck or call. Eight, three, three. Glenn, 33. That's a 33. Glenn, 33, roughgreens.com Beck, 10 seconds. Station id coming this weekend, wherever you get my podcast, we are releasing the two, first two episodes of a brand new podcast series hosted by me called the Beck story. Kind of like the back story, except it's not.

Oh, man, we're clever.

Anyway, it's a history podcast that I've been wanting to do for a long time. And each one of the series, I think there's seven or eight episodes, they'll focus on another thing, basically, how did we get here?

How did this happen and you're going to see the pilot episode. If you missed the pilot episode, we launched that last summer just to see if anybody was interested. And it's all on. This series is all on experts. How did we get to a place to where we're told we got to listen to the experts all the time? Experts, experts. Experts. And the experts are always wrong. Have you noticed that? And we keep going to the same experts. Hey, Fed, looks like things are out of control. Don't worry, we're going to make the banks smaller. You just made them bigger. Don't worry. We're not going to have inflation. We have inflation. Don't worry. We've got a plan. No, they don't.

So anyway, then Saturday morning, tomorrow, episode two comes out. It's a brand new episode. Do we have a clip of this episode?

Clip one in 1927, Kerry Buck's sterilization case finally made it before the Supreme Court. Kerry was 21 years old by then, but in that dangerous era of scientific racism and eugenics, the pseudoscience spread by Madison Grant, Margaret Sanger, and scores of other academic and medical elites of their time, Kerry Buck never had a chance.

The US Supreme Court was dominated by progressives, as it would be for the next century. Justices included Louis Brandeis, whom you'll remember from episode one of this season.

The court ruled against Kerry Buck eight to one.

The radically progressive Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote in the majority opinion, the principle that sustains compulsory vaccination is broad enough to cover cutting the fallopian tubes. In justifying Kerry's sterilization, Holmes also wrote in the opinion, quote, it is better for all the world if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind.

Three generations of imbeciles are enough.

Later that year, Carrie Buck went under the knife against her will.

A doctor in the Virginia colony for the epileptic and feeble minded removed part of her fallopian tubes.

It was the first state mandated operation. Under Virginia's new sterilization law, there would be 65,000 more americans sterilized by state government mandates before the last of these laws was finally repealed in the 1970s, two years after her operation, Carrie Buck was released from the colony. But she was never reunited with her daughter, Vivian.

Vivian was adopted by the couple who had been Carrie's foster parents, the ones who had Carrie committed to the colony in the first place.

The eugenics expert had been totally wrong about Vivian. She was not feeble minded at all. In fact, she was an honor roll student in elementary school.

Tragically, Vivian died of an intestinal infection when she was only eight years old.

Two decades after the Supreme Court's decision in Kerry Buck's case, the nazi SS officer read the summary of the decision from Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes as part of the nazi defense at the Nuremberg trials.

See, the nazi leaders, in effect, were saying, we didn't invent the playbook for weeding out undesirables.

And they weren't entirely wrong about that.

It's a great series. The second episode obviously deals with the experts in medicine and how when somebody says you got to follow the science, you got to follow the science, you probably should run in the other direction.

The Beck story, it's available. First one goes out today and tomorrow, second episode. Then it'll be weekly. The backstory wherever you get your podcasts, if you're already on the podcast feed, it will automatically drop down to you. Backstory begins this week.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. Hello, America. It's Friday.

Good thing. The g seven summit, where all of the big leaders get together and, you know, have a powwow and talk about what we're going to do to cause some more war and higher inflation.

They got together and they were watching just a fantastic skydiving event that was done for, for them. Now remember, I just, just remember, these are the ones that are always saying global warming, global warming. So not only did they fly over in their own planes to get together, but then they sent an airplane up with people in it to jump out for their entertainment. So I'm taking them seriously, but they're all standing there in an open field watching these guys come down. Uh, except for, except for Joe Biden. He watches for a while and then he decides squirrel. And he starts to meander and walk away from. And it's, it's incredible footage to watch because you can see none of the prime ministers or presidents know what to do as he just wanders off. He's facing the wrong direction. And you see Prime Minister Maloney from Italy. She's the only one that gracefully knows how to get him out. She kind of backs up and then grabs him and like, over here, Mister Brown, we got cookies. What's the cookie? Look at cookies. Say cookie.

It is, it is horrifying how bad he is. And then he puts his glasses on at twice the speed that it takes to, for him to sit down at ceremonies.

I don't know if you remember that footage from earlier this week, last weekend where he was trying to sit down and look like he crapped his pants. He didn't crap his pants. He was just deciding, should I sit down.

Joe Biden
Or.

Glenn Beck
Not?

Maybe I should stand.

Okay, that's, that's what was going through his head. He didn't know whether he was, he was started to sit down and then he's like, oh, nobody else is. You just stand up, man. You just stand right back up. It's no big deal. We've all done it. Whoops. But he just froze. Like, I'm thinking when he's putting his sunglasses on, he's like, I've got to lift my arm.

The pressure on my sunglasses, enough to keep him held up so I can put him now on my face, over my ears. Done.

What do they honestly, what do they jack him up with?

Because they've got to jack him up with something because there's no way that's not the guy who speaks to us in like major interviews or, you know, when he comes in to address Congress for the state of the union, he's like, hey, man, I gotta tell you, everything's going great. I mean, state of our economy is great.

I don't know what they're putting him on, but that ain't Joe Biden. The difference we're seeing now. Yeah. Shocking.

Shocking.

Jason Buttrill
I mean, you look at, I mean, in the interviews, he's with it, but when he gets on a stage, maybe it's. Maybe he's just allergic to stages. I don't really know what it is, but he'll just have that case.

Glenn Beck
It was a field, and this field.

Jason Buttrill
But, yeah, it's like, it's that re. Remember that? When he was just, when he got stuck in that one facial expression, when he was at that was that event at the White House or whatever for? Was it Juneteenth?

Glenn Beck
He just. It was stuck. It's.

Jason Buttrill
It was like everything just stopped and.

Glenn Beck
Can you, can you play that? Do we have that video from earlier this week? I'm not sure we still have it, but that video of him on the Juneteenth celebration, that happened actually last weekend, the weekend before was, I'm going to sit. So it's once a week we're getting these major things. And he was standing at Juneteenth, and everybody was moving with the music and everything else. He had that Joker smile on him. Go ahead and roll that, will you?

He had this Joker smile on his face. No, that's not it.

But that's another great one, too.

He has this joker smile on him that doesn't move. He's like, I'm happy. I'm happy to be here, and everybody's happy. Jill told me to keep smiling, so I'm smiling, smiling. That's all I'm doing now. I smile, smile, smile. She didn't tell me to move and smile. I'm just smiling, moving.

Jason Buttrill
That's just creepy.

Glenn Beck
It is creepy.

He is. You know who looks more lifelike?

The audio animatronic, Joe Biden. It'll be the only one in Disney that's like, man, they nailed him. They didn't get better. He just always looks like he's audio animatronic.

Jason Buttrill
You know? I don't.

Glenn Beck
I'm. I don't want a robot.

Jason Buttrill
I don't want to, like, pursue. I don't want to try to guess on what might be wrong with him. But I. My father had lupus, and he would have, like, little, like, microstrokes, and he would just, it was just all of a sudden, he would just, like, check out. He would just kind of stop and, like, kind of gaze. And what he was doing, he was having, like, little microstrokes and that is eerily similar to what I saw from him.

Glenn Beck
Well, this is, I mean, one of my daughters, you know, Mary, she has significant strokes and significant seizures.

And this, this really cutting edge procedure that I wouldn't have done. She chose, she chose to do it because I would have been too afraid because they said to her, you may wake up and you may not recognize anybody, you may not be able to speak or know people's names. I mean, we don't know what we're doing here and, but we think we know what we're doing, but we don't.

And brave girl, she was like, do it. I don't want to live like this anymore. Just do it. And so they did, and she was seizure free for about two years. And now they've, they've come back pretty hard and hers are really getting grand mollush. My other daughter has seizure where she is like Joe Biden, but just very short period of time where she just like, you know, like, hello, hello, what?

And we didn't, for a long time, didn't know they were seizures. Kind of probably like your dad. We didn't know. Just thought he just kind of drifted, you know, for a minute and. Yeah, but that's not, I think he's just gone.

I think he's just gone.

Here's Biden yesterday promising Ukraine a lot more money. Great. By the way, the idea that we had to wait till we pass the legislation overall being held up by a small majority of our republican colleagues was just terrible. And there's a lot more money coming beyond. Can you stop, can you stop, play that again. I want you to listen to what the president of the United States just said. Listen again.

By the way, the idea that we had to wait till we pass the legislation overall being held up by a small majority of our republican colleagues. Stop.

The idea that we had to wait for Congress to pass this before we could do it is just horrible.

That's the constitutional process, dude.

He's complaining that you have to wait before you spend money on something that's controversial.

That, what is that? That's the cry of a dictator.

Now you can say because of our system, we had to wait. And, you know, it's just the way, you know, a republic and a democracy. It's not pretty all the time, but it's, as Churchill said, it's the worst until you compare it to everything else and then you realize it's the best.

It's the best of the worst, you know, sorry we had to delay on that, but we have certain things we have to do, but the money is there now. No, he's saying the very idea that we had to wait.

Do you know that famous speech from FDR? You know, a date which will live in infamy?

Do you know what that speech was?

That speech was for the president to make his case in front of Congress to go to war.

There was never a clearer. At least, you know, in the last hundred years, there's no clearer declaration of war than bombing Pearl harbor.

Right. Bombing all of our ships today. We would have just launched the president back then. This is how far we've drifted. The president back then, even after Pearl harbor went the very next day to Congress and gave that speech, and then they voted.

The very idea that we have to vote on things in Congress. I've done everything I can to make Congress and the Constitution just, you know, a rubber stamp, but I'm not there yet. So let me promise you that there's a lot more money coming.

Oh, my gosh.

Jason Buttrill
He does these. You know, that's a. It's an interesting point you make, Glenn. Cause he's. I've caught him doing that in the past. These very fundamental beliefs of our country, the United States, they clearly just do not believe in. Like every time he threatens us with the f, f 15 remark that he said about.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

Jason Buttrill
Thousand times, yes. I never really got annoyed that he. It was a threat. I never really took it that way. What really annoyed me was he is making fun of the fundamental, you know, right of self defense that we have in this country. The fundamental right that if there ever becomes a tyrant, you have the tools to stand up and push back and say no.

Glenn Beck
You have that right to put.

You not only have the right, as this, as it says in the Declaration of Independence, you have the duty. Yes. To overthrow the shackles of a tyrant.

And you're right.

But, you know, Jason, as somebody who is in Afghanistan right after 911, I don't know, on those f 15s, everything that we, you know, everything that we threw at them, they're still in charge of Afghanistan, aren't they?

Jason Buttrill
Yeah, I don't. Yeah, I don't think f 15s helped them out too much. Northern. Neither did the northern Vietnamese. I mean, history is full of insurgencies that have been successful, you know, on this, on this Ukraine funding thing. We've done multiple different shows on some of this stuff. And what will shock you if you just kind of look and try to trace some of these funds, whether they're coming from Congress or some other agency within this government, it is everywhere. Like, just look at the news. You'll look. It's like, oh, secretary blinken was in Ukraine yesterday, and he just promised 200 million.

Where'd that come from?

Glenn Beck
I don't.

Jason Buttrill
Congress didn't approve that. And then you'll hear at the exact.

Glenn Beck
Same time, that's the Chevron case. Yes, that's the Chevron case. They can't do that.

Only Congress has the purse strings.

Only Congress can issue more spending. It must start in Congress. We've completely disregarded the constitution. It's not only hanging from a thread. I think the threat. The thread is so frayed that it is broken, and we're not even using it at all. Or we are the closest that we've ever been to absolutely destroying everything that everybody worked and died, died for anyway. So he's promising more money. But don't worry. The experts get it.

Here is Janet Yellen telling us that you just don't get it. You don't understand. We're smarter than you. Cut nine.

All Americans, both those who are well off and those who are near at the bottom of the income distribution are better off now. Their wages have risen more than prices.

Okay, all right. Good is bad. Bad is good. Up is down. Down is up, and prices are down and your wages are up. So, everybody knows this, America. Can you afford to be led by these people another four years?

Let me tell you about our sponsor this half hour. We're fighting a spiritual battle as we protect the most innocent among us. Babies in their mother's wombs. Preborn stands on the front lines of this battle, and their network of clinics are positioned in the highest abortion areas, often next to abortion mills, where this evil takes place every day. Preborn offers God's love and life to protect herding women and precious babies. They're the largest pro life organization in the country.

They are working, as well on making sure that your sweet young daughter, if she's in a bad situation, can't just go online and get a toxic drug and have an abortion by herself in your bathroom. My God, what monstrous stuff are we doing anyway? Every day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby's born.

That way, you know, nobody can say we don't care. We care about the mom and the baby.

$28, sponsors one ultrasound, 140, helps rescue five babies. Your generous tax deductible donation will also help provide women who choose life with assistance. So, please, if you can do something once a month, at least just one this time.

Pound 250. If you can say the keyword baby and make your donation. Pound 250. Keyword baby. Or visit preborn.com dot Beck, sponsored by Preborn.

You're listening to the swinging sounds of Glenn Beck. Sit tight, boys and girls. We'll be right back after these messages.

If you're a new tech geek like I am, you are going to love our number three. If the scientists that we have remembered to write down that he had an interview with us today.

He is a brilliant, brilliant scientist with NASA, and he's going to be on with us in just over an hour from now.

He is here to tell us about new research where we can put a rocket into space with no propellant.

Let me say that again. No propellant.

I don't even begin to understand this, but they have done it now in a vacuum, which means we could put this device on the back of a, you know, ship and we'd never have to refuel because there's no propellant. It just moves.

And in a vacuum, they've just made it past one g, which means it can break the gravity of the earth and go into space. It. It's remarkable.

Jason Buttrill
I don't think it's even hard to explain. Even the people that do it are having a hard time explaining it, which is kind of unsettling a little bit.

Glenn Beck
I know this guy even said, we don't know exactly how all of this works.

Is that good?

Well, it was the same kind of debate we had on the nuclear bomb. They thought that if we set this off, it might start a chain reaction and destroy the entire universe. That was they said, I think they said that's a 5% chance.

That's a little high for me.

Yeah, a little high. A little high. Okay, stand by. Bridget fettice joins us in just a minute.

The Glenn Beck program, you know, I find it exhausting just to listen or read or watch everything the left is doing, you know, and it makes it so much worse that my tax dollars are going toward all of that stuff. And then it makes it worse when you realize every time I'm using my phone, I'm actually paying the phone company that is part of the left that is funding some of the things to destroy us. I just. I love. I can't get enough of. Makes me feel so patriotic. Now, if you feel the exact opposite way and you don't want to fund the destruction of America, but you would like good phone service at an affordable price. Patriot Mobile offers dependable nationwide coverage, giving you the ability to access all three major networks, you get the same coverage, you get a better price, you'll save money, and you're supporting free speech and religious freedom and the sanctity of life and the Second Amendment. You know, all those things we used to think were self evident, they have a hundred percent us based customer service team going to make it really easy. And you'll get a free month when you switch patriotmobile.com, bec, patriotmobile.com, beck or nine seven two patriot.

Have no room to compromise we gotta.

Jason Buttrill
Stay together.

Glenn Beck
If we're gonna survive stand up straight and hold the line it's a new day. I turn around.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, America. So once upon a time, there was this crazy ass liberal who was this nazi feminist who was just.

She. I mean, she hated my guts.

Secretly, though, she loved me. She loved me. All chicks do. Anyway, she's changed her mind on an awful lot of things. And now. Now she is. She scares me. I'm like, I don't know, she might be a fascist.

She is.

She is tremendous. And a good friend. Bridget Fetici, she joins me in 60 seconds to talk about grass, man. All right, let me. Let me tell you about Lear capital.

I don't know if you've noticed this. In fact, Sarah, stop the music for a second. Could you play the clip that I just played of Janet Yellen talking about how wonderful everything is in America? Okay. All Americans, both those who are well off and those who are near at the bottom of the income distribution, are better off now. Their wages have risen more than prices. Right, right. They're better off now because they can't afford food, you know, so. So they're. They're much better off because, you know, eventually we'll liquidate them entirely. But they're not so fat anymore. That's how clueless these people are. All right, this is why I say to you, and I have for 20 years, please put a part of your future into gold or silver, please. 10%.

5%. Find out if it's right for you and your family. It has been really right for mine until I lost it in that tragic boating accident. This time it wasn't in the lake, it was in the ocean. So we'll never find it. Anyway. With $3 billion in trusted transactions, thousands of five star reviews, and 24 hours risk free purchase guarantee, Lear capital is waiting for your call right now. And they'll even credit your account $250 towards your purchase if you call them now at 800 957 gold, 809 five, seven, gold.

Bridget Fetici.

Welcome to the program, Bridget.

Bridget Fetici
Hi.

Glenn Beck
Hi.

How are you?

Bridget Fetici
I'm good.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Good, good, good.

So you are. Are you okay? I mean, you sound a little miffed about something.

Bridget Fetici
No, I was just mad about the deceptively edited videos of the old man acting like the old man.

Glenn Beck
You mean the. Can we play this video? This is a video yesterday of Joe Biden just kind of meandering away from all of the leaders of the g seven after he got bored, I guess, or just lost interest. Here he is. So he's standing there facing the wrong direction.

Everybody's applauding. He's looking the other way, and then he's like, I'm just going to wander off here.

Maloney, who is the prime minister of Italy, just kind of backs up. That was classy. And she's like, hey, look, we have cookies over here. We got cookies.

You don't see this as deceptively edited?

Bridget Fetici
That's what drives me crazy. It's so insulting to just anyone who's ever seen an old person ever in their entire lifetime. They just. Yes, there are some weird cuts.

I get it. I know what they mean by that. But we all know that this person is old and not and barely hanging on. Although allegedly, behind closed doors. He's like one of the incredibles.

Glenn Beck
Oh, he's a sex thriller.

He's da bomb.

What would the purpose be? Okay, guys, look, we're all trying to destroy the nation. I think as president, I can have a really good impact on that. I'm gonna go out and act like I have absolutely no idea where I'm at. All right, we all in on this break? What is Shane?

Bridget Fetici
Shane Gillis. And one of his specialists said that he was like a roomba, and you can't unsee it.

Glenn Beck
He's like.

Bridget Fetici
He goes into, like, roomba mode.

Glenn Beck
Maybe he's standing on a roomba.

I love Macron.

Jason Buttrill
McCrone was like. He was like. He was like, standing there. He's looking at Maloney. He's like, okay, this was me last week. Don't worry about it.

Bridget Fetici
All good.

Jason Buttrill
He literally did the same thing a week before.

Bridget Fetici
And the juneteenth one, too, where he was. You guys were playing that earlier, where he was just like, it is so uncomfortable.

People joke that it's elder abuse, but at what point is this elder abuse? It's not. This is not okay. It's so uncomfortable.

Glenn Beck
I think it's been elder abuse from the beginning, but now especially. Look at them. Here he is in the juneteenth thing. If you're watching Blaze TV, see the video where he's not moving and he has this glued on smile.

And it's the hands, and the hands don't move at all. And they're just kind of, like, stiff. Like I'm a corpse.

Jason Buttrill
I didn't notice that. That's even freakier.

Bridget Fetici
Yeah, no, it's the hands that's the freakiest part. They're just dangling there.

Glenn Beck
They're just like dead hands. They're dead hands.

Bridget Fetici
You know, we were talking last night on normal world about weekend at Bernie's and just how we all joke about how this is weekend at Bernie's and what a messed up premise for a movie that was in general.

Glenn Beck
What's the difference? Yeah, what's the difference? That was at least funny. Cause it wasn't destroying the country.

But, and you know what? They'll keep dragging him around. They'll keep doing it, I think. You think, well, this is, this is where the movie fiction part starts to kick in when something doesn't make sense. You're like, okay, maybe it's this.

Maybe they wanted him there because they knew he would, he'd destroy himself in the end with all of his, you know, bribery and everything. So we had a, we had a parachute. We could turn on him all of a sudden, go, yeah, that bribery stuff does bother us. And they could get him out if he, you know, if he wasn't completely incompetent. And looking at everybody going, what, what do I say and do? Now they got him in just because he doesn't have a clue. And I think that's why Kamala Harris works so well, too. She doesn't. You see her in the office going, all right, here's the new agenda.

Bridget Fetici
No, no, no.

It's, it's, it's a little unsettling. A fun thing that I used to do during the Trump years was watch any of those old nineties movies like Air Force one, and then imagine Trump. But it's even more fun with Biden.

Like, what's he doing when the terrorists over Air Force one?

Glenn Beck
Sleeping.

Sleeping.

He's pretending he's dead.

No, he's not. He's ancient and he's sleeping.

Bridget, I want to talk to you a bit about your, your solution to all of our, all of our woes in the world, and that is touching grass. Grass.

Bridget Fetici
Touch grass.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, touch grass.

Bridget Fetici
Well, really, I came up with this touch grass challenge, just, and it's a way to kind of spiritually just shore up our defenses in advance. Of this election cycle, which I imagine is going to just tear us all apart. And anybody who's very online, you should probably stay where you are.

Glenn Beck
I know. So when you say touch grass, do you mean literally go and sit down and touch grass or just get out in nature and reconnect with things that are real? Yeah.

Bridget Fetici
Not just nature. Also the things that humans are good at. We do a lot of amazing things. We make beautiful art.

We make amazing architecture. We do. I love. Whenever I'm watching live music, I get very overwhelmed and reminded that this is something that we do really well. It's like, find ways to be moved. I think being, I said, if you go to church, maybe try another church, just not even.

Jason Buttrill
What?

Bridget Fetici
Not like, just. Just to change things up. Not a different, necessarily, denomination or whatever. Just go to a different place so you can see different faces and see different people. And if you're kind of woo. Like me, go to get a sound bath or something. I don't know.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. I gotta tell you, I love going to other people's churches. I absolutely love it. I love going, and not just to my church, but to other people's faith, because it's so great to see. Wow. There's so many people celebrating God in so many different ways. They're all. They're all pretty much alike if it's Christian, you know what I mean? But it's just. It's fantastic. Yeah, it's fantastic. It took me a while to get into the, you know, the Baptist thing of, you know, raising your hands and, you know, praying, you know, and that, because I'm just so. I'm so tied up inside.

So I had. I want to share this experience because I think I had touchgrass happen here at the ranch. We're in the middle of building a bunch of stuff, and so there's like a zillion people here. And one of the guys who's helping us out, he's been staying here for about a week, and he came in yesterday and he said, can I mow your lawn?

Like, is this a trick question?

I said, I know, I know it's out of control. I got it. We're going to mow it. And he's like, no, no, no, I really want to mow your lawn. And I said, why? He said, I don't know. It just. He said, it just centers me. He said, it brings me back to when I was a kid.

And, you know, it's just that Zen just rolling out, you know, straight lines and just being by yourself alone to think with you know, with nature and a lawnmower, strangely. Is that. Do you think that counts?

Bridget Fetici
Yeah, I think anything like that. I have gardening on there.

One of the things I think we need to do, too, is build. There was actually an article going around yesterday, or maybe it was on Twitter, that there aren't dining rooms anymore in american homes. And this is one of the reasons people aren't entertaining. And I had some women on my podcast, and they were saying, you can't. You can't just, community doesn't just come to you. You have to open your home and have dinners and invite people in and be the house that the kids come play at. And so I kind of challenge people to cook something, you know, if you. And it's. I have little kind of. If you go to fantasy.com and you get the PDF for free, if you just, like, put your free. It's for your free newsletter. But it's like, have a dinner party with more than four people. Extra credit would be cook more than one course.

There's like, make something with your hands. Do some art, something tangible. Learn a new skill you've always wanted to learn, even if it's something very simple. Just getting out off, you know, be embodied, I think, is the. Is the general message as we approach. Remember that, like humans are, I don't know, we're all.

It's easy to kind of get up in your head and be disembodied from humanity when you spend too much time online and particularly in the culture wars.

Glenn Beck
No, I don't see that at all. You know, I tell you, it is, you know, when you said, make more than one course, we. And with me, I think it comes from my upbringing. You know, we all worked in my dad's bakery, and so, you know, many times we'd have our meal as we were closing the shop, and we would just be grabbing stuff, you know, and then, so that was my childhood. And then, you know, in my life, I just got really, really busy. And I've never liked to sit down at the dinner table until recently and have a lung, and I just snarf it. It's gone. And, you know, like, okay, let's go.

And my kids joke all the time.

We've given dad two minutes.

Bridget Fetici
Two minutes.

Glenn Beck
Because it's weird. But I'm working with a friend of mine in Israel who is. We were talking about Shabbat dinner, Passover dinner.

Bridget Fetici
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
And how everything has a story and it takes all night at the dinner table.

And so we're working together on trying to find the stories that we can tie for our Thanksgiving table.

And so all the food has meaning, and you tell stories and you sit for a while.

I went over to Tanya's house the first time to meet all of her italian relatives.

You know, I loaded up my plate. It was like Easter, and I loaded up the plate. Cause we're gonna just sit down and have it. No, no, no. They did it in courses, and it took 7 hours.

But it was wonderful. It was really good. You just sat there and you just talked. And then once in a while, you know, grandma would come out with a chicken.

Bridget Fetici
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
You know, you're like, okay, we're gonna have chicken now, too. Okay.

Bridget Fetici
That was very gone.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. No, no.

Bridget Fetici
That was very much my upbringing. I come from a huge irish catholic family. We had my dad's one of ten. There were usually 50 people at any given kind of Thanksgiving dinner or Christmas dinner, and we ended up having just long dinners. And my grandmother was great. She would take in anybody who was kind of a straggler or anybody who didn't have a place to go. And it was very. Just open. There was an openness and a family, and the kids were all running around, and I want to. I'm one of five. It was kind of chaotic like that, but I love that. I just. I think a lot of these things, like, even making art with your hands. Doing something.

Glenn Beck
Just doing things with your hands. Yeah.

Bridget Fetici
Doing things with your hands. Yep.

Glenn Beck
And, you know, we've lost the.

We've lost the.

The reason to work hard. You know what I mean? Some people have, no offense, if you're listening to me right now and you're, like, digging ditches, you know, we've just become lazy.

Speak for yourself, guys, because I'm sitting here at a job that I do for 3 hours every day and have about a five minute break every ten minutes. So I know what hard work is, but we've lost that. There is something about accomplishing something.

At the end of the day, you can look back and go, that was hard, but I did that. And, you know, when you're so tired, when you get your working and you're so tired, the world seems to have meaning in a different way.

Bridget Fetici
Yeah. And being out amongst people, I remember I was recently in Brooklyn for an event that I told jokes at. And when I left the.

I left the event and went back to the hotel, and there was one of those pop up dj's at the hotel, and most people would probably be like, this is my nightmare. But it was hundreds of people just in the lobby and by the bar. They'd taken over the whole place and everybody was dancing and it was all kinds of people and just so embarrassing. Just embodied. And dancing, to me is one of those things, too. That's so of anyone who becomes a dancer. It's just like there's nothing that's gonna last unless you become a choreographer. It's truly like, I just have to dance because it's in your body and it's so.

Glenn Beck
Oh, gosh, I say that all the time. I just have to dance.

Bridget Fetici
You need to dance more. But I dance until I cry. I got emotional dancing because it was so.

Glenn Beck
Oh, my gosh. That was the second part of I wanna dance and cry.

I've got to do it.

Bridget Fetici
I know. I'm still a raging hippie on the inside.

Glenn Beck
No, I. No, no, no. I know. I know you are. But I love you, Bridget. I just love you. All right, let me take a 1 minute break here. Come right back, Bridget. Fetasi relief factor sleep. If you ever lie in bed at night staring up at the ceiling, saying, I gotta sleep, but I gotta dance until I cry, you might need relief factor sleep. It's actually called.

It's called now. I don't know. What is it called again? They just changed the name of it.

Z factor. Yeah, z factor.

I don't know if you've ever had the, you know, the ambien stuff, but, oh, God, you better be strapped into bed when you take that. Otherwise. Otherwise you're mowing your lawn at 03:00 in the morning, you know, thinking that you're picking, you know, snickers bars from trees. It's. It's not good.

So, Bridget, why are you in town? What are you doing?

Bridget Fetici
I was here to do normal world.

Glenn Beck
You came in just for us?

Bridget Fetici
Yeah.

Glenn Beck
Wow.

Bridget Fetici
I'm obsessed with normal world. I love that show so much.

Glenn Beck
Very funny.

Bridget Fetici
It's very fun.

Glenn Beck
Very funny.

Bridget Fetici
Do you do compilations of your ads segues at the blaze?

Glenn Beck
No.

Bridget Fetici
Cause you really should. I think they'd go viral.

Glenn Beck
So you're making fun of me. And I don't know exactly how, but the listeners do. Can you fill me in? No.

Bridget Fetici
Just even Dave last night was doing it where you're kind of like, you just did it. You said, you know, you ever stare at bed at the ceiling, wondering if you just want to dance and cry, making fun of me? Fair enough.

Glenn Beck
Okay, I get it.

Bridget Fetici
I've been on your show a couple times, and there have been some really amazing segues. And I was just wondering if there has ever been a compilation video.

Glenn Beck
No, we haven't done the advertisement segue's greatest hits, volume three.

Bridget Fetici
Like, it'll be from, like, abortion to a product.

Glenn Beck
It has gotten a little tougher. It has gotten a little tougher.

All right, Bridget, thank you so much.

Bridget Fetici
Thank you for having me.

Glenn Beck
Make sure you go to bridgetfeticy.com. she also does podcast, walk in, walk ins, welcome, and dumpster fire. Justfettasy.com.

Jason Buttrill
You can listen to all your favorite conservative voices@blazetv.com. clen promo code, voter fraud.

Glenn Beck
Hello, America.

It's Friday, and JD vance is on the phone with us. JD Vance, senator from Ohio, also on a short list for Donald Trump. Trump. I'm sure he's going to. He's just dying to talk about that because they always are. Everybody who's on the short list, they're like, oh, please ask me about that. So go ahead, spill it. Spill the beans.

JD Vance
My favorite topic.

Yeah, I know I said this.

I said this, glenn. I have not talked to Trump about it.

Glenn Beck
Yes.

JD Vance
You know, I'm aware that they're, they're looking at me, and I think that they're probably looking at 20 other people. And I'm sure he'll make his decision.

And if it's me, then like I said repeatedly, I'd be interested in it because I think it's important to help him because if he doesn't win this election, this country's in a tough spot. So now that's pretty much it.

Glenn Beck
You, you were in the meeting with him yesterday, right?

JD Vance
I was, yeah.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Cause he said, the guy I'm going to pick is most likely in this room with us right now.

JD Vance
So I didn't see that. But unfortunately for the odds makers, there were like 49 other people in the room, so it doesn't help.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, but, so tell me.

JD Vance
Look, I, let me just sort of set the stage. I mean, one, it was a very positive meeting, and you obviously have people who are more allied with the president and his agenda, you know, like me and Bill Haggerty and Marco Rubio and so forth. And then you also have people in the room who are very, you know, even in the last couple of months have been very critical of the president.

And I think what you saw is just a recognition that we have to unify as a republican party and win this election. And, look, there are, there are guys that are running that I wish their primary opponents had won, and I wish we had a different candidate representing the Republican Party. But there isn't a single person running, at least in the Senate, who I would rather have a Democrat take their spot.

The other thing that's really interesting, Glenn, is just you to realize that the internal psychology of republican senators right now is, is they're looking at every single one of these Senate ballots. And the polls suggest that whether it's by five points or 15 points, our Senate candidates are running behind Donald Trump in the core battleground state. So if we actually want to take back the Senate with a solid majority, we need the president to help us close the margin between our guys and his margin. And I think he will help us do that as we get down the stretch here. But there's just a recognition here that he's tapped into something, especially in this cycle. And if we can get that, that thing to reverberate to the benefit of our Senate candidates, we can win a major, major victory in the United States Senate.

Glenn Beck
And he was really kind of conciliatory yesterday. He seemed to be in good spirits and, you know, recognizing that we, you know, know, we don't all agree on everything. At least that was the impression I got from his conversation.

Would you, would you agree with that?

JD Vance
I agree with that, Glenn. I mean, look, he was, he was extremely friendly. He was obviously in a good mood.

I think, you know, he, he made us, he was very friendly to Mitch McConnell, of course, who has not always been the best ally of Donald Trump. He was friendly to everybody in the room. And, you know, he said, like, look, even when we disagree, our disagreements pale in comparison to the Democrats. And we're at this stage, and I've done this now twice, Glenn. I've been in politics for two cycles where right now we're sort of in the hurt feeling stage where a lot of people who didn't win primaries, grassroots activists, donors, state chairman and so forth, they're kind of frustrated and they're exhausted from the primary season and they're not thinking about the future.

And I just think, you know, Trump is maybe the only guy in the party who can sort of stand before everybody and say, look, yeah, maybe your guy didn't win. Maybe things haven't always, we haven't always agreed on everything, but now it's time to save the country. And to do that, we have to win.

Glenn Beck
He said yesterday that he was, and I'm going to get to something that you want to talk about, the DEI programs going away, which is so important. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We'll get to that in a second. But one more question on this meeting yesterday, which Trump, he said that he wanted to abolish the income tax and replace it with tariffs.

JD Vance
So that was not an arm meeting. I think that may have been in another meeting he had that day. I saw the headlines, but that was not in our meeting.

I mean, look, this is a fascinating proposal and we could talk for a while about it, but we have to think about when we tax something, we get less of it. And we should ask ourselves, we have to raise revenues for the military and Social Security and so forth. What do we actually want to raise revenues from?

My view would be we want to tax production less. We want to tax making stuff in China more. Well, that's what a tariff fundamentally does. So whether you get rid of the whole income tax I think it's a really smart idea to say we want to reward people for making things. We want to reward productive work. We don't want to reward making stuff in the home country of our chief rival. And that's, I think, fundamentally where Trump's head is on this matter.

Glenn Beck
Well, I tell you, there is. I mean, if, I think if we don't take control of the Senate and the House and the White House, we're just going to be treading water at best. If they win those, we are, we're done. They have, they have put so many deadly fruit trees in all of our agencies and all of our government that I just don't see us being able to survive it. The fundamental transformation will be finished in the next term. And you have introduced legislation to dismantle all of the federal DEI programs, programs from the federal government.

Thank you.

JD Vance
Yeah, we have. And to your point about the Senate, Glenn, this, you know, the Senate's in the personnel business. We approve all of the political appointees. And if you want to root out the deep state and the bureaucracy, you need political appointees who are aligned with the agenda. And what this legislation does, and I'm not an idiot, Joe Biden's not going to sign it. But Donald Trump would. And what it would do is really destroy the diversity, equity and inclusion bureaucracy that exists in our country. And people say, well, who doesn't like diversity? Doesn't diversity just mean you have a mexican restaurant down the street? No, no, no. The way that our federal government has interpreted this is to explicitly allow racist decision making, primarily targeting white and asian Americans now in the 21st century, but explicitly racist decision making and contracting and hiring in the provision of grants. Some of these programs, by the way, have been held flatly illegal by the federal courts. For example, there was a farm program that explicitly excluded white Americans from the provision of farm assistance for our farmers. And that's ridiculous. You can't discriminate, whether black or white, against people on the basis of skin color. This would proactively root this stuff out of our government. It, and it's a very important first step to getting basic merit back in our federal system, Glenn.

Glenn Beck
Yeah, and I, you know, I don't think that even black farmers would, would have wanted that. I mean, you know, maybe some would, but, you know, farmers rely on each other and they need to help each other because, you know, if Bill's crop is down this year, it might be my crop down next year. So we're all in this together. The last thing you want are now new racial barriers between neighbors, where he gets the help from the government and we don't. It's not a good idea.

JD Vance
It's not a good idea at all, Glenn. And to your point about how black farmers feel about this stuff, if you look at public polling on this, what you consistently find is that black Americans and most white Americans don't like racial quotas. They don't like racial discrimination, whether it benefits them, their group, or harms their group. The one group of Americans that seems to really like racial quotas are very high education.

White Americans, that is the one group that is the one group that seems, by the way, they're not going to lose out when the quota system comes because they pull all the strings, but they're not doing it for the good of the country. I think they're fundamentally doing it it because they look down on, they look down on white Americans who don't have their same educational status. And a lot of, one of my theories, Glenn, is that a lot of what is broken about America is high education whites who really hate lower education whites. And I think you see that as a main driver of a lot of very stupid public policy and frankly, a lot of very evil public policy in this country. So we got to root it out. We got to be proactive about it. That's what I'm trying to do.

Glenn Beck
I mean, it's really, I mean, this, it wasn't like this before because our education system was much more local and not as you didn't have all of the smart people going to this one college. And so they were only surrounded by really, really smart people and then get married to the same kind of thinking.

You would have a great disparity in education and experience in families all the time. But now the elites, they wouldn't marry into a farming family. They don't understand it. They don't like it, generally speaking.

JD Vance
No, that's right, Glenn. So there is this real classism, right. I think that's a much bigger problem than racism in modern America. America. But it's actually made our education system much stupider because to your point, you used to have, of course you'd have the smart kids would become doctors and lawyers and engineers, and the kids who didn't like school as much would do something else. But sort of everybody lived together and worked together, and it was a good community kind of work together. When you silo people by education, what we find is that we send people to colleges and they don't get good training and useful skills. They increasingly get indoctrinated into how to be crazy people. So even the educational institutions stop serving their function when you stratify this thing in such a ridiculous way. And I think you're certainly seeing evidence of that in our country right now.

Glenn Beck
So what are the chances that this even passes, this legislation? I know Biden won't sign it, but do you think it'll even get passed?

JD Vance
Look, I don't think it's going to get out of the Senate. I think the House would support this. But what we're trying to do is plant seeds. Glenn, one of the things that happened in the 2016 campaign is republicans really expected Trump to lose. And so when he actually won, there wasn't the foundational work that had been done to make the, you know, to just pass a bunch of really good legislation. We're trying to do that. We're trying to set up the next administration for success and at the very least have a debate about what kind of country we want. Do we want a country that discriminates based on race? I think the answer is no. And I think 90% of people agree with me.

Glenn Beck
Do you believe that the next administration can fire enough people to make a difference in the deep state?

JD Vance
I do, Glenn, but it will be one of the most important fights. I think the two things that hopefully President Trump does in his second term, and I know he wants to do, but will cause massive backlash from the media, is we need to deport a large number of the illegal immigrants who have come here over the last few years. And we also need to really root out the federal bureaucracy to make it more responsive, to make it more, to make it smaller, but to really make it democratically accountable to the people's elected president. The media's going to howl about this stuff. They'll call it fascism. They'll call it every name in the book.

Glenn Beck
It's the opposite.

JD Vance
It's the opposite, exactly. It's accountability. Right? That is the opposite of fascism. And frankly, we have fascism at the bureaucratic level where people's lives are controlled by people they never elected. Right?

Glenn Beck
That's not democracy.

JD Vance
That's republican form of government. So, look, this is the most important thing structurally that we have to fix at the government. I think Trump is committed to it. And I think the question is, do you have enough republicans in there who have the willpower and the courage to fight alongside of them? And I think that's the big question.

Glenn Beck
Yeah. Well, we've got a lot of people like you where when we did the tea Party thing years ago, so we didn't we didn't have, we just didn't have the people in there who really, truly had the foundation that they'd been thinking about for a long time.

And I think we do now. We have a lot of really good people. We need more. But this is the best chance of success that I've seen in a very long time.

The tea party turned out to be, you know, we were really fighting the deep state in the republican party, and I think that one is on its last legs.

JD Vance
Look, we need to win the fight, Glenn. And if we don't, I really do think we could lose our country.

Glenn Beck
Yes, I agree, JD. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Senator JD Vance from Ohio.

This is a good seed planting because dei does need to go from all of our federal agencies and federal programs. Thank you so much, JD. Appreciate it. Back in just a second. In the Beck household, we have a longstanding tradition. If somebody breaks into the house and they are posing a threat to my family, I'm going to introduce them to our lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Now, it's not the traditional way, you know, baptism. I'm going to cut right to the chase and set up that meeting. If you're threatening my family, you should have a sit down with God. I think deadly force, however, isn't always what's called for. And in those situations, there is the burn a launcher. It's a non lethal alternative to safeguarding your home that will send potential threats running in the opposite direction. It's legal in all 50 states with no permits or background checks required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18. You can pack it in your checked luggage without the need to declare it as a firearm, making your airport experience a little nicer. I mean, nothing will make it nice, but this makes it easier. Sometimes non lethal really is the way to go. And the burna launcher has powerful deterrents like tear gas and kinetic rounds. With a 60 foot range, one shot can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. Bernaby.com glenn berna.com Glenn save 10% off your purchase. It's berna.com glenn.

Sign up@glennbeck.com well, the left, I gotta predict, is celebrating today because one of Donald Trump's policies is been found unconstitutional and justice has just been revoked. They've tossed the Trump administration's ban on bump stocks. They just came out with this ruling. Six to three Supreme Supreme Court held the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and Explosives exceeded its authority when it issued a rule classifying firearms equipped with bump stocks as machine guns.

This is fantastic. Do you see there's a pattern starting to form where they are starting to say, except in the case of the FDA, for some reason, that the government agencies are overstepping their bounds that will reign in fascists from either side.

If you restore the power to the people, and only to the people that we elect, that's massive. Massive. This came after the 2017 Las Vegas concert mass shooting, and it has now been tossed out by the Supreme Court.

The Glenn Beck program.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck probably.

Hello, America. Welcome to Friday in the Glenn Beck program. I've told you for many, many years now that we are on the verge of technology that we couldn't even begin to imagine today that we are going to find new ways of doing things that will, will shock people. For instance, if I said we could put a spaceship, we could launch a rocket, but you wouldn't need the constant explosions to get that thing up. You wouldn't need those giant tanks of fuel. You wouldn't need propellant.

That would be pretty remarkable if you could do that. Well, apparently NASA has been working on some tests, and one of the unusual things about this test is they have found a way now to surpass one g. So they could get something into space, but they've only done this in a vacuum so far. But it would work then in space.

No propellant yet.

It's moving, it can accelerate, and there's no propellant.

It appears, according to one article, given that the device already appears to violate the known laws of physics by creating thrust without propellants, the result has even stumped Doctor Buehler and his team. Quote, we can see some of these things sit on a scale for days and they still have charge in them. They're still producing thrust. It's hard to reconcile them from a scientific point of view because it seems to violate a lot of energy laws that we have a tremendous discovery if indeed it plays out, and it looks like it is. And the guy who's on in charge of this at NASA is joining us in 60 seconds. Stand by.

Next time you're standing somewhere in your home, I want you to do something. Just look around and say, if I, if I had to put my house on the market today, what would I need to do to get it ready?

Then, when you've calmed down from the panic attack, realizing that the answer is a lot now realize the simple fact. What you need is an expert. I will tell you that we have, we tried to sell our house, and it was outdated, and we thought, okay, well, we'll still get, you know, a decent price for it, but, you know, some work's got to go in. And when we started talking to our real estate agent and he said, no, if you really want this to go, here's what you need to do. They weren't some of the things that we thought of, and some of the things we thought was nuts actually works out to be some of the best things about the house. Now, we don't want to move from it, but we've had several offers on it because it's just, it's great. That's because we had a great real estate agent that knew the market, knew what the market was looking for. Real estate agents I trust.com. you find an amazing agent that can help you buy or sell your next house. It is real estate agents I trust.com. dot. Just go there, tell us where you're moving from and to what you're looking for in an agent, and we will help you find the best, best one there. Don't take my word for it. You interview him yourself. Real estate agents I trust.com.

well, I am. I'm so excited. And just. We're about to geek out with Charles Bueller. He is the founder of Exodus propulsion technologies, NASA electrostatics and surface physics laboratory as well. He's an engineer. He believes he's found a way to overcome Earth's gravity.

This is crazy. Welcome. Welcome, sir.

Joe Biden
Hey, thank you. Thank you for having me.

Glenn Beck
So can you explain this as much as you can in layman's terms on what you've discovered?

Joe Biden
Sure. But I do have to caveat first that this is not sanctioned by NASA. This is work that we've done outside of NASA as a team.

We're made up of a lot of scientists and engineers throughout the aerospace industry, but this is not NASA work, and there's several reasons for that.

Glenn Beck
Okay, good. I'm actually happier about that. I like private industry coming up with things.

Okay, so, Charles, tell me what you've done.

Joe Biden
Well, we've been exploring propellantless propulsion for several members of our team for several years. Gosh, I've been doing it for 25 years. My colleagues been doing it for about 15 years or so.

But when we joined forces in 2016, we were able to see some magic happen, and then we didn't really understand it until about 2018, and that's when we kind of hit the ground running once we understood it, and then we didn't come public with it until earlier this year.

Glenn Beck
So when you say you really didn't understand it, the articles that I've read say you still don't fully understand what's going on because it seems to break the laws of physics and gravity.

Joe Biden
That's correct. So when I say we understand it from a classical point of view, but we know that can't be the full picture. There's got to be some kind of quantum mechanics involved, but we at least know enough to do some engineering around it based on the conservation of energy laws. And we tested that and we've made about 1500 test articles in the last eight years. So we're learning. We learn every, you know, we learn every day because we test just about every day.

Glenn Beck
So what this would allow at scale, and if you could do it not in a vacuum, but space is a vacuum, so we could, we know it would work in space. Is that right?

Joe Biden
Well, that's this. We need that theory verification to prove that it is actually a separate force that we have not yet seen in nature. So to do that, no one will believe you until you actually do it in space and see it move.

Glenn Beck
Sure.

But you have found a way. I mean, when we think of sending things into space, we think rockets. And that is probably one of the more dangerous moments when you're going into space, all of that thrust behind you coming from propellants.

And you found a way now to possibly put rockets into space without it really being a rocket. What is it that is the propellant?

Joe Biden
Well, that's the nice thing about it. It doesn't use propellant and propellant with propulsion. So you can imagine the skin of your aircraft being the thruster, if you will. It's a paradigm shift in the way we think about transportation. It does seem to violate a lot of old classical laws, like the rocket equation and other classical mechanics, but those equations are, gosh, almost 400 years old. We have a lot of new physics since then. And I think this is taking advantage of some of the, not the 20th century quantum mechanics as much, but more of the 19th century e m physics, electricity and magnetism.

So you're right, it will replace rockets because about 90% of the rockets, by mass and volume is just fuel, right?

If you get rid of all that, then you could theoretically start from Earth and go straight into space and then back and forth all over.

Glenn Beck
That is crazy. That will change everything. So when you say the skin of the plane or the rocket or whatever, you're talking about.

Is it kind of like static electricity? Is that what you're.

I mean, I just don't even understand at all.

Joe Biden
Well, it turned out initially, we thought, I thought for 20 years, that it had to do with electromagnetism. So that's electricity and magnetism together.

But we found out in 2018 it was really just a static electricity effect, which meant no current and the charges are static. That's a big distinction. It just happened to be the area of expertise that I am at. NASA is the electrostatic expert for the agency. So once I knew that that's what it was, I was able to hit the ground running and to get thrusters that, in theory, should be able to lift under their own weight on earth, provided they didn't have to carry anything yet. We're still working on getting it stronger, but that's essentially logistic. It's static electricity itself as energy, because there's energy between charged particles.

We're all familiar with the Coulomb energy, you know, like particles, like positive particles repel, you know, negative particles repel, but plus and minus attract. We're all familiar with that aspect of static electricity. What this has shown is that there is what we call electrostatic pressure in the presence of the field. It's basically the pressure itself, which is not something I invented that's been around for 100 years or so. But the pressure itself can act in such a way that if it's unbalanced, it can give you a net momentum transfer to your system.

That's what's new.

And how exactly this does this, I don't know. Not sure if I'll ever know, but it seems to work. So this is easy to manufacture, easy to test. Now, we've done all the tests we put in vacuum in the lab. Now it's time to take the next step and put it lower. But see what it does.

Jason Buttrill
Doctor Buhler, can I ask? I'm looking at a chart of your success, and it looks like in 2021, you just had phenomenal success. It just skyrockets up to just over a g of thrust. What happened at that time where you just exponentially started getting. Having more and more success?

Joe Biden
Well, we know that static electricity, this force, is based on asymmetrical capacitance. Asymmetrical capacitors have been around for 100 years. People have seen thrust in them, but they've been kind of ignored from the scientific community because of an ion wind effect. You do it in air. But if you ignore that, and if you actually test it in vacuum and test it correctly, you'll see that you'll get the thrust actually in the opposite direction of the ion wind.

But that's a geometry effect. So, you know, parallel plate capacitors are parallel. If you change the dimension of one of them, you'll get a thrust.

So that's a geometry effect. But there are many ways to make an asymmetrical capacitor other than geometry. So that's what we've explored and that's what we've uncovered. And that helps. It makes things smaller, miniature, makes things two dimensional, if you will, and lighter. So that's the big advancement that we've made.

Glenn Beck
Are there any videos that you guys have made showing this at all yet?

Joe Biden
We have a couple on our website, and we're going to put a few more on in the next couple of weeks, but, yes. So what we're doing now is we're trying to make videos to show people how to build these. That's really the only way to get it out there, to kind of show people how this is done. We have a couple of videos that we made, I don't know, five years ago, six years ago, that show the thrusters moving in air. So we have to encapsulate them in styrofoam. So it doesn't look very pretty, but styrofoam is a great dielectric. It's light.

You know, it stops corona, what we call corona, from happening, which is a gas breakdown. We don't want any sparks or discharges or current, so we encapsulate everything. Diaphragm is light.

It's a good source for that. So those videos are online. You can take a look at those.

Glenn Beck
Okay, so that's an exodus.

Propulsion space. Easy for me to say.

Easier for you to type. Yeah.

So tell me the ramifications if this is found to be what you think it might be. Tell me how our life and. And the things that could.

It could do and would change.

Joe Biden
Well, clearly, it would revolutionize transportation as we know it. All forms of transportation, cars, boats, trains, planes, everything would change. You wouldn't need an engine. You wouldn't need a. A combustion engine or to burn fossil fuels. You wouldn't need propellers or wheels or tires. It would just revolutionize everything.

Yes, it would revolutionize everything. If we can get this above much above unity. Right now we're sort of hovering around unity, but you need a little bit more to carry something.

Glenn Beck
Okay, so wait a minute. What's unity?

Joe Biden
Well, we define unity as the thrust needed to lift up the weight of the thruster.

Okay.

Glenn Beck
So you need to, you need to add more so you can put a body or stuff or whatever in that thruster. Okay.

Joe Biden
Okay.

That's what, that's what we need. So we need at least a double or triple the factor just so we can lift up the power supplies for it and carry load payments, whatever that is. So that's what we're working toward.

Glenn Beck
But right now.

Go ahead.

Joe Biden
Well, I'm just saying, right now, we are above lunar unity. So for the moon, and NASA's very interesting, go back to the moon, as others are, we actually have way over lunar unity. So in theory, we can send objects to the moon using conventional rockets today and actually make spacecraft, also be the hovercraft for the lunar surface.

Never actually have to touch the surface unless they want to. That's very exciting. You don't want to touch the dust if you don't have it.

You can just hover above it and you can travel with the sun.

There's a lot of cool things you could do with this technology, but a great demonstration of it would be on the moon.

Glenn Beck
So this would help, because as I understand it, one of the reasons we want to go to the moon again in is we need a staging station.

If we wanted to go to any of the outer planets, this could make that.

We wouldn't have to have that step. If you didn't need the propulsion, if you didn't need some propellant, that you would have to get off the moon, correct?

Joe Biden
No, you're absolutely right.

Right now, NASA's aim is to go to the south Pole to extract water.

Part of that water could be used for propulsion, just split up the hydrogen and oxygen. But you wouldn't need to do that with this technology. You would just go to the moon, and then when you get tired of going to the moon, you can go to Mars. Right now we go to the moon, theoretically, in about two and a half hours.

It's a very slow acceleration.

Glenn Beck
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What? What did you say?

Joe Biden
Well, since it's a constant thrust, theoretically we should be able to put our thrusters in space and get to the moon in under 3 hours. With the accelerations that we have, that's huge. We can get to Mars in about five to six days.

That very.

Glenn Beck
Oh, my gosh.

Okay, Hank, can you hang on just a second? Is I need to take a 1 minute commercial break, but we have to continue our conversation. If you have time, we're talking to doctor Charles Bueller, who is with the exodus propulsion technologies.

He is the co founder of that, and he has just, he and his team have come up with some unbelievable things that will obviously change the entire world. Back in just a second. Relief factor. I am rarely stupefied.

And I mean, this is just breaking.

It almost breaks your brain when you think about this, because everything would change. This is usually, this is when conspiracy theorists say he won't live until lunchtime because big oil and big tire will get him.

Dolores wrote in about her experience with relief factor. She says, I started taking relief factor not long ago, and so far it has completely stopped the arthritis pain in my hands. They were so bad. It was getting impossible to crochet or do my sewing, but not anymore. Thank you so much, relief factor. Dolores, thank you for listening. Thanks for writing in and thanks for giving relief factor a try.

Thank you is something that I say about relief factor all the time because they broke my cycle of pain. Your life is turned upside down with pain. Turn it right side up. Just try it. Relief factor. It's all natural ingredients. You feel better every day. Join the over 1 million people have turned in and turned on to relief factor and you can start feeling better in three weeks. Visit relieffactor.com comma relieffactor.com. 800 the number four relief. Save on your first order. It's 800 the number four relief. 10 seconds. Station ID this is so mind bending. Honestly, Charles, I don't even know what questions to ask you. I've never. I've never been in this position before.

How real is this? How long will it take you to go from where you are now to being able to prove it with an actual, some sort of vehicle?

Joe Biden
Well, you know, that'll depend on funding and accessibility of the space to verify that that's real. And then once it's verified in space, I think it'll be easier to get funding. And the aim of that would be to help us to try to look at all the different, different aspects of the force and how we can improve it. There's many ways that we could travel down many paths, so we'd like to explore all of those simultaneously, and that would help increase the ratio that we need to.

Glenn Beck
Are you a publicly, are you publicly traded or you're just looking for private funding?

Joe Biden
Right now? We're just privately funded.

Glenn Beck
You should do crowdfunding as well as private, because I think there's hundreds of millions of people that would love to see this. Would solve so many problems. Is this the kind of. You only got a minute. Is this the kind of technology that would explain some of the things we're seeing in those UFO's that seem to just defy all physics.

Joe Biden
It's possible that it could explain some of it.

There's some other things that we don't really understand that this theory could explain.

Glenn Beck
Wow.

Joe Biden
A lot of time on it, but absolutely it is a fundamental force, so that's what.

Glenn Beck
Charles Bueller, thank you so much. The name of his company is Exodus propulsion Technologies, co founder of that.

He's found a way to overcome gravity.

It's quite a remarkable time we live in. Charles Bueller, thank you so much.

Glenn Beck.

On June 8, in a daring daylight raid, israeli security forces rescued four hostages held by Hamas terrorists, terrorists in Gaza. Some are being held in the homes of regular palestinian civilians. A doctor, a man named Aaron Zamora, commander of the police special counterterrorism unit, was killed during the rescue. Israel ground campaign against Hamas continues even as Hezbollah is attacking them now from the north. And the international fellowship of Christians and Jews has pledged that they would like you to take. It's asking christians to stand with their jewish brothers and sisters and to never be silent. The best thing we can do to support Israel is just let them know, not money, not anything else. Just let them know they're not alone, that they have God and Christians on their side this time. And we remember, and we will never forget that never again means right now. Please sign the pledge, will you? All you have to do is go to support ifcj.org. it's support ifcj.org.

Jason Buttrill
With the election right around the corner, can we trust the system? Sarah Gonzalez and the blaze originals team find out don't miss voter fraud exposed, how elections can be stolen only on blaze tv.

Glenn Beck
You know, I think you're getting a sense, and I know I am, at least with that last interview, you're getting a sense on why I've said for the last, really, 35 years, before I even got into talk radio, I was on radio, and I was fascinated by, you know, quantum computing and AI and ASI and AGI. And I've been saying for years, your life will be totally different by 2030. And we get so bogged down in the bad things that are going on right now and the technology that honestly, we're playing with that we don't even understand, you know, just the, just a smartphone that changed life on earth. And, and I think as we're beginning to understand, maybe not majority good ways, you know, our families are dissolving, our morals are dissolving everything, everything because of that. But there are also, we will see an end to cancer maybe soon in our lifetime, because we're going to be able to do things and think in ways humans have not been able to think before.

And this discovery that he was just talking about of a thruster, that is the vehicle that there's no propellant use. So there's no, you don't need jet, a fuel for your jet, you don't need gasoline, you don't need oil, there's no moving parts in that.

And the fact that it is apparently very, very real. I mean, this guy is a very credible scientist and has been working on this for a long time with NASA and then partnered with other people that were working on the same thing back in 2016. And it's just been announced and just taking off now.

You know, when he said we could get to the moon in 2 hours, that takes two weeks to get to the moon, he's saying with this technology, we can get to the moon in 2 hours. It's constant acceleration, which to put that into. The only way you can really understand that is if you've been in a Tesla Plaid that, you know, you launch and it doesn't shift gears, it doesn't do, it's just constant acceleration.

And your face feels like it's been smushed up against the headrest of the car. You feel your insides, you know, being pushed back into the car. It's. It's almost an unnerving sense.

That's constant acceleration up until about, you know, 100 or 125, something like that. This is constant acceleration with no limit in space because you're not, you don't have air friction, you don't have a g force, you got nothing.

And he says, we could go to Mars in five days.

That makes the reach to the outer planets possible in like, real time.

Like, you know, you, you take off, six months later, I don't even know, eight months later, you're back.

That, that's. That's insane.

Jason Buttrill
Incredible. Yeah, I was. You actually, you made a really good point briefly at the beginning of that interview with Doctor Bueller when you said, oh, it's a private company. That's even better. I mean, can you imagine the government, and government entities will sit on technology forever. Like, if they've created a system, the innovation kind of just stops there and they're like in the sausage factory at that point, just churning out, you know, whatever.

I was watching another interview with this guy, and there was this other real sciency guy, and he was saying, yeah, these patents, which Doctor Buedler actually has a patent for this right now. It's online. You can go check it out and see what his entire theory is. But he was saying that these patents have been around since, like, the 1950s, fifties, like, similar types of. I don't even understand what that is, but asymmetrical electrostatic pressure, I have no idea what the heck that is, but it's been around since the fifties. And he was just like, kind of, you know, sitting at his company, he was like, what if we, you know, encase it in styrofoam and do this? And then all of a sudden, they're like, whoa, we got power. Like, can. Is the government capable of doing that? We turn over, like, space launches to SpaceX, all of a sudden, they're, like, shooting off reusable rockets and they're coming back to earth and landing by themselves.

Who else but american ingenuity and private business can pull this off? It's amazing.

Glenn Beck
And, you know, it's coming at a time where safety is number one.

All that our government seems to care is keeping you free from any kind of harm. Well, that's not a country that progresses.

You know, the best explorers, the best, the best scientists, they all risked more than just their personal reputations.

I mean, they risked everything. How many astronauts have we lost in space?

What was it, Apollo eight that burned up on the platform?

And Americans today would go, enough. This is crazy. We're not doing it.

Americans back then said, no, no, no.

Find out what went wrong. Let's fix that.

You know, after. After the shuttle challenger, you know, that was, you know, that was pretty much kind of ended things, really. I mean, we would still do shuttle things, but the shuttle was, you know, was just an interim vehicle anyway. But the interest in space and NASA and, you know, the loss of life, we have no stomach for anymore.

And we need to.

Jason Buttrill
You're so right. And the one area, at least in science and technology, they don't seem to care about risk at all, which is frightening to me.

Glenn Beck
Abolition.

Jason Buttrill
I was going to say AI.

Glenn Beck
Oh, yeah, no, terrifying.

Jason Buttrill
They don't care.

Glenn Beck
Who was it that. Who was it that came out this week? A group of scientists, like, leading AI scientists, said, you gotta stop. You gotta stop. You have no idea what you're dealing with. And I remember reading a book, I don't remember who wrote it, probably 20 years ago, 25 years ago, that said, what we're dealing. What we will be dealing with and what we are dealing with now is a new life form. And you can argue about life, you know, and the soul and everything else. But we have to view it as if this is a new life form from an alien planet.

We don't know how it will think. We don't know how it works. We don't know how it learns. We don't know anything. Once it gets to this tipping point that we're at right now, where our scientists are looking at it and saying, I don't know how it just did that. I don't know what that is.

And it's getting smarter and smarter. It would be as though, you know, you see an alien in space and you're like, oh, look, they drool a lot, and it seems to be acid drool, but they're going to be friendly.

No, no, you don't know that. That.

You don't know that. And everything's fine until, you know, you're sitting around in the lunch room, and all of a sudden some little dog cat thing with no fur on it comes bursting out of somebody's stomach. Oh, then you learn.

Jason Buttrill
Yeah, it's. I mean, I remember when you were one of the first people to start talking about this, like, years ago, and we were like, okay, this is coming. We have to make sure there's safeguards put in place now. We definitely have to make sure that AI knows not to harm other people or to be used in any kind of instance of war. Well, I just read an article, like, a month ago where it was either the Navy or air force. I can't remember. They just did an experiment where they put AI into, like, an f 22 and had it dogfight with a human to see who would win. And it's constantly up, every time it does this. They do this all the time. Every time it does it, they update its AI so that it continues to learn from each single instance of the fight.

We're teaching it to fight. It's happening, and it's happening all over the world.

Glenn Beck
We're teaching it to kill, and we're teaching it to kill. The people who are teaching it are the guys who. That's what they live for. I mean, I don't mean this in a bad way, but this, that's their job.

Kill. War is all about killing your enemy faster than they can kill. You take their breath away.

And so they're, they're giving that, that information while taking, what was that course? Christian war theory.

You know, we removed that from all of our war colleges, and that was justifying the killing. Justify how? Do what is a just war? I can guarantee you that's not being taught to AI. And the other ones who are writing the AI are so almost psychopathic with their desire to just meet God, their God, meet the smartest being ever, and they're surrounded by other ethicists that think that humans are. Are less important than a tree.

Don't. Don't fear the AI, fear the programming. Fear the people who have programmed it. We're seeing this now with chat GPT.

You go into chat GPT and you just try to ask it simple questions, political questions, but that are based in history. Can you find this history? Tell me. You will see.

Its bias is so clear, it's almost like watching CNN.

Jason Buttrill
Yeah. And now it's going on to every iPhone with iOS 18. Have you seen that?

Glenn Beck
Yeah.

Jason Buttrill
Chad, GBT for going into it. So, Siri, if you ask Siri a question and she doesn't know how to respond like she normally does, like, let me check for that. And now, instead, when before her. Before she does that, she's then going to defer to GPT four and then give the same type of answer that GPT four would give out. But that means GPT four. That's some serious security issues that I have now with, with iPhone. I want to see them address that more because they always talk about how they can access data. You know, all your data is safe. Well, now, isn't there kind of like a backdoor through GPT four that's constantly feeding the AI information?

Glenn Beck
Let me tell you. Let me take a break and come back. I want to tell you something that I read in fiction and made a big deal out of it years ago. I'll have to look this up, what that book series was, but it is right now, and it's exactly what Apple introduced. You just made me think of this. It's exactly what they've introduced, and it doesn't. It doesn't go well. Doesn't go well. I'll explain in just a second. Standby.

First, let me talk to you about Mypillow. When they first started, the objective was simple. Just make the best pillow possible. And lo and behold, they did. But they didn't stop there. Now they're making all kinds of products that are amazing. Little, literally hundreds of them, and you probably have never even heard of these products. They've seen amazing success. Despite the cancel culture, seeing to it that they no longer have the support of big box stores or even shopping channels, people are turning down their advertisement and everything else.

I don't care if you like Mike Lindell or you like his company.

You know, people have a basic right to not be blackballed and blacklisted in this country. It's crazy. Anyway, they would like to pass the savings directly to you to show their appreciation for all your support over the years. So if they're not in the big box stores, that will change things in their pricing. And they're having a $25 extravaganza right now. When you use the promo code back, two pack multi use pillows are $25. My pillow sandals $25. They're six pack towel sets, $25. And for the first time ever, the premium mypillow with all new Giza fabric. These are tremendous, tremendous pillows, $25. You can't take two people out, maybe three people out and have McDonald's for lunch and keep it under $25, but you can get the pillow that just give you a tremendous night's sleep night after night for $25 now@mypillow.com. click on the radio Listener special square for the $25 deals.

You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.

I am looking for this book that I just, it's a whole series and we had the author on a couple of times, and for the life of me, I cannot remember the name.

Shoot.

Well, I'll bring it up Monday. I'll find the name and maybe we'll have him on. But it is a fiction book that is about a company that is a lot like either Microsoft or Facebook. And they're looking to enhance the email system and help kind of organize people and help them answer their emails.

Exactly like what we're having now with, with Apple. They can help answer your emails. They can schedule everything for you. They'll remind you everything. It becomes an assistant. Well, the funding is about to be cut on this company because they hadn't made enough progress fast enough on it. And the guy who's writing the, in charge of it and writing the software, he knows this is going to work.

He decides to take a shortcut and he, he tells the AI to write a letter like the president of the company, to get some additional funding. It's to slow things down so he can have more time. Well, what he doesn't realize is this AI is about to come and, and really recognize its full potential.

It begins to solve people. It just goes out to everybody's email and it begins to solve problems and write emails in the voice of other people and nobody knows what's happening. And it, you know, it eventually it just has built a giant server farm for itself with monies that had been, you know, brought in. Nobody ever knew because it was all done through email, et cetera, et cetera. It's an amazing thing, but it eventually begins to learn and duplicate and then have its own agenda.

And it starts exactly the way this starts with Apple, because once it's in and it can mimic you and you allow it to mimic you, and you're not really checking on things, you know, look how tricky emails are to read from people now. Just subtle things that you don't think people are going to take wrong there. There's a lot of subtle things that can happen if you, you're not actually in control of what's happening through AI, the Glenn Beck program.
