Glenn Beck and Stu Burguiere analyze election data, claiming unfavorable numbers for Republicans while discussing Democrats' potential 2028 "purge" plans. They critique Zohran Mamdani's New York tax proposals and warn of oil prices hitting $160, fearing an economic spiral. The hosts debate Trump's "SWAT team" foreign policy strategy and conspiracy theories regarding a "Red-Green Alliance" involving Islamists and progressives. Ultimately, the episode blends political forecasting with claims about Western civilization's survival against radical ideologies. [Automatically generated summary]
It usually doesn't show up with blaring sirens and crashing cymbals.
It just sort of becomes a part of your daily routine.
And before you realize, you've totally changed.
You sit a little more carefully than you used to.
You avoid certain movements.
You get up slower.
You plan your day around what your spine might decide to do.
That's not the way it's supposed to be.
Here's the reality.
The Chirp contour is designed for that exact kind of everyday wear and tear.
Long hours sitting, sleeping wrong, working too hard, sometimes not moving enough.
It uses targeted spinal decompression, deep massage and pressure, optimal heat to help you and your back actually relax and reset.
You lie down automatically.
It adjusts to your back and it does all the work for you.
No guessing, no twisting yourself into positions that feel like a yoga class gone wrong.
This is really great.
I use it all the time.

Hello, America.
It's Friday.
We're glad that you're here.
There's a lot going on.
We've got a lot of news to cover.
We're going to kind of do a roundtable.
Stu is stopping in today, and we're going to get a look at the election from him.
Killing People and Purging Evil00:13:01
The numbers are not good, are not good for the Republicans.
And meanwhile, this week, the Democrats have just gone insane.
And I don't know if you saw what Pritzker said yesterday or the day before, but he is talking about a purge.
If they get in in 2028, there will be a purge.
And I think they'll try to purge if they get the House and the Senate.
We're in deep, deep trouble.
But let's just focus on the things that we can change today and do the right thing.
We'll get to this in 60 seconds.
First, let me tell you about Rush Tax.
You know that IRS notice that's sitting on your kitchen counter right now?
Yeah.
It's not waiting patiently for you to get around to it.
Every single day, you leave it there.
The IRS quietly adds penalties, stacking interest and turning one mistake into something bigger and a more expensive problem that keeps growing while you sleep.
The IRS doesn't forget and it doesn't forgive exactly.
It doesn't give second chances.
And that is exactly why Rush Tax Resolution exists.
They know every single rule.
They know every procedure.
And they know exactly how to step in and advocate for you when the IRS has you in their crosshairs.
You've been avoiding that letter, the one that's been staring back at you.
Today's the day to stop the madness.
When you mention my name, Rush Tax is going to give you a free IRS transcript investigation.
That's a service that other term, other teams will charge you about $500 for without even saying that they can help you.
Rush will offer this upfront and for free, and they'll only take your case if they know they can help you.
So get a Rush tax attorney now.
Protect yourself.
Call 877-554-RUSH, 877-554-7874 or go to rushtaxresolution.com.
So I want to start with J.D. Pritzker.
He's talking about what is going to happen in 2028 or 2029 when they win, assuming that they do win.
Listen to this.
What does a Project 2029 agenda look like for you?
I don't think you can speak of it in shorthand, but I'll just say a couple of things that I think are absolutely necessary.
One is we've got to restore the rule of law, and that means holding people accountable who've broken the law.
I'm talking about in this administration when we get a new one.
Stop, stop.
Jesus, sweet baby Jesus, be with me.
We have to restore the rule of law.
Sweet baby Jesus, let me smell the hay in your manger.
We have to restore the rule of law.
We have to punish the people who have broken the law.
Come to me now, sweet Jesus, before I lose my ever-loving mind.
We have to punish those who have violated the law.
Let me ask you this.
Could we apply that maybe to the little people?
Could we apply that to people who are, I don't know, stealing from our treasury?
Could we apply that to, I don't know, people who are stabbing people on the streets?
Could we maybe do that?
How about this one?
A damning study of over 1 million kids finds myocarditis only in the vaccinated.
Can I ask you a question?
When will anyone pay any price for the millions of people that have died because of COVID?
When will anyone pay any price?
We're not even talking about stealing from people.
We are talking about killing people.
And quite honestly, follow the science.
Wow, baby Jesus just came to me.
Wow, thank you, Jesus.
Thank you.
Wow, because I almost said things that would have had the show canceled and I would have been in court at FCC.
I would have been in FCC hell.
Thank you, sweet baby Jesus.
They knew.
They knew what they were doing and they did it anyway.
And no one is going to pay any price.
But I guess if you're Donald Trump and you're trying to have ICE follow the law and go and get people who have stabbed people to death or raped children and have them deported, that for some reason, that needs to be prosecuted.
But not COVID.
Not the people stealing.
Not the people raping children.
None of that.
Not the politicians who have been involved in all of this stuff.
No, Gang?
Marxists do the same thing.
Marxists and Islamists do the same thing in the end.
When they get full power, what do they do?
What do they do?
They purge.
If they get power, They mean it because they do it.
This is what Marxists do.
They purge.
We, oh, he just visited me again.
Thank you.
We must come together.
Oh, my gosh.
Look at this miracle that is happening.
Do you know?
I mean, I want to testify to you now that Jesus comes to you when you really need him.
I was about to lose my mind.
And here I am, what, two minutes later, about to say, we need to love one another.
We need to stop this fighting with one another.
We need to find our way to one another.
We have to stop saying that person is a traitor and you must hate them.
We have to stop all of that.
We have to come together.
The evil that we are fighting is so profound that we will lose.
And when we lose this time, and I'm not, the sweet baby Jesus grew up.
He preached for a while.
And because it pissed everybody off, they nailed him to a tree.
He rose again for our sins, but he also promised, I'm coming back.
The battle that we are approaching may very well be the final battle before Jesus comes back.
We need to love one another because this one is all hands on deck.
This is all hands on deck.
There's a great sorting that is going on.
And if you don't have the Spirit as your guide, if you are not, if you are looking at everything politically, you're going to get lost.
If you're looking at things because you're angry, you are going to end up on the wrong side.
You won't think you are, but you will be.
I.
I can't believe I'm here.
What is happening to me?
I testify to you now that we are going to be asked to stand, but not slaughter.
And the way things are going, everybody's getting so hyped up that everyone is a mortal enemy and a traitor.
And our side would purge just as much as their side would.
We are not immune.
That is a human trait.
And we are not to engage in that.
I suddenly know all of this is true.
It's coming.
And we are to love one another and be the example.
We stand for what is right.
If somebody, you know, last night on that special, it was an amazing special.
I don't remember who said it, but one of our experts was talking about how the rape of children is happening in Sharia law.
It's happening all over the world.
And we have gotten to this place to where we won't judge it.
And she was raped as a child.
She was raped.
She was brutalized as a child by her father.
And the school knew it, but the school wouldn't do anything about it because that's their culture.
And that's the problem.
We have gotten to this place to where we have just tried to, we have, they have twisted.
Satan doesn't destroy first.
He perverts.
He takes what's good and he perverts it.
And then he uses it.
And by him using it, it destroys it.
He is the destroyer, but he is the great perverter first.
And he has taken our best traits, our love, our compassion, our wanting to get along, and he has perverted it to the point to where we will sit there and say that young girl is being abused, but that's their culture.
If that's their culture, then we must say that culture is evil.
And we have stopped saying that because our best human traits that come out in the Western society, the best part of us is tolerance, is to get along, is to love one another.
But you must not love that.
It can't harden your heart.
You still need to be filled with compassion.
I have learned so much, even in the last week.
We must still guard that best part of our culture and us.
But at the same time, we have to be razor sharp on evil and call it by its name.
What was done during COVID was evil.
It was evil.
We had people in our own government conspiring to make something absolutely deadly.
They knew exactly what they were doing, but they had such little value in human life that their little experiment was more important than millions of people.
And we went to the most, one of, the most evil countries in the world, China, and we partnered with them because they didn't have a problem doing it and our laws restricted us from doing it.
Patriot Mobile Customer Service00:02:37
So let's partner with them and do it in some crazy garage laboratory.
And it went out and then they covered it up.
And then the drug companies were excused and told, don't worry about any kind of liability.
And they conspired with our own politicians all over the world and they killed millions of people.
That's what happened.
Period.
That's the truth.
Period.
And it was evil.
Exclamation point.
I would be remiss if I didn't say one other thing.
I'm just looking up at the clock.
I'm already late.
Let me take a one-minute break and then I come back and tell you one other thing.
Patriot Mobile, it is rare in life to get exactly what you want.
With most things, there's a trade-off of some sort.
For instance, it used to be the case that you want a really good sell service.
You had to contract with one of the big guys.
Well, you don't have to do that anymore.
It just doesn't have to.
The trade-off, the trade-off is you're taking part of your money that you sent to them every month and you send it to causes that you don't believe in.
Abortion, do you believe in that?
Well, if you're with Verizon, they've been giving money to Planned Parenthood forever.
Why would you do that?
Good news, Patriot Mobile.
Patriot Mobile, you don't have to put up with it anymore.
They have better customer service.
They're on the same exact system in cell towers, okay?
Same.
But you're not giving all that money to Verizon or AT ⁇ T or any of the big guys.
You're giving it to Patriot Mobile and they're taking a percentage of money and they're giving it to good causes.
They're the only Christian conservative phone company in the world.
Stand with them as they stand with you and our values.

Last night at the beginning of the special, Ricky was freaking out in the control room.
She told me this morning because we were not more than 30 seconds in.
We had this open that really shows the problem.
I'll play it here for you in a minute.
And I'm watching it, and I am overwhelmed by in a moment where there are few things that I know that I say that I know do not come from me.
This monologue a minute ago did not come from me.
And I know it because it happens in an instant.
And what I was thinking I was going to do is completely gone and I'm going some other way.
And I know I'm saying, okay, I'm not steering.
Go ahead.
And one of those moments was that chalkboard that I did at Fox.
The anarchists, the communists, the Islamists will all work together to destroy Israel, destabilize Europe, and then finally come over here and destroy the Western world.
I know that didn't come from me.
And I had several promptings all the way through that time period.
Fall on your sword on that.
Do not stop saying that.
That is true.
And so I obeyed and I did.
And last night at the beginning, I'm watching this open and it's showing where we really are.
And I realize we're in that battle now.
And I realize, you know, for a time there, I thought, you know, maybe this isn't going to happen.
Maybe that was, maybe, maybe, maybe we avoided it.
Maybe we did something right.
Maybe I was wrong.
Whatever it was, maybe.
And here we are now, 15 years later after that chalkboard.
And I'm seeing that.
And I'm watching this.
And I'm overwhelmed with two things.
One, oh dear God, it wasn't wrong.
It was right and it's here.
And this is now that battle.
And here's the part I want to tell you.
I was overwhelmed when we opened because I was overwhelmed with God is so good.
He is so good.
He allowed me to share that with you 15, 16, 17 years before we are here.
He is not surprised by anything.
And he is telling us, he is engaged in this.
So no matter how scary things look, no matter what it is that we are facing, he's not surprised by it.
And he knows it and he's prepared.
And he's telling us what to do.
You may feel like he's not telling you what to do, but he will in the quiet ways he will.
Everyone was born for a reason.
And maybe your time hasn't come yet.
Maybe you think you're doing things that he's telling you to do, but you don't see any result in it.
Believe me, you're not alone.
I feel that way every day.
And I know people say, Glenn, it's so easy to see.
Not for me.
It's not.
It's not.
So even in those days where you just don't think you make a difference, believe me, you do.
You do.
And you're here for a reason.
And he's got it.
So no matter how bleak things may be, no matter how bad you feel, open up your arms and say, sweet baby Jesus, let me smell that hay because you just witnessed.
You just saw it happen in real time.
I was so angry and I had no intention of telling you all of this stuff.
I didn't have any of this stuff in my head.
And I know it to be true.
Okay, let's just start over.
Could I have the wheel back, please, Jesus?
I have a show to do.
We have some bills to pay and some money to make and some laughs to be had.
So we'll get to all of those things in just a minute.
All right, you might go your whole life without ever encountering any kind of violence.
In fact, I hope for you that that's the way it is.
But I understand that you can't always count on that being the case.
One of these days, you or somebody you love might be walking along minding your own business, dangerous situation going to land right in front of you.
My daughter, I told you this the other day, my daughter said to me, Dad, because she's told me, I'm carrying my Bernard launcher, and I knew she wasn't.
I'm carrying it, I'm carrying it.
She calls me up and she said, Dad, I promise you, I'm going to carry it with me all the time.
And I said, what just happened?
And she was followed by some creep and she had to drive all the way to the police station.
She was followed by somebody and she couldn't get away from him, had to drive the police station.
And she said, oh, the whole thing I kept thinking is, I wish I had my Bernard launcher.
I wish I had my Bernal Launcher.
Look, you don't know when you're going to need it.
Just have it, please.
Let me be your father for a minute.
Let me be your dad if you're a young woman or a young man.
Torch insiders are raving about last night's special where Glenn exposed the enemy already at the gates.
If you missed it, it's available on demand now on the Home and Watch page at glennbeck.com slash torch.
Last night, we did our first special.
It was supposed to run 90 minutes, ran out at about an hour because I just couldn't stop talking.
But it was staggering.
And there's one thing, and I'm going to talk about this later.
There's one part of this that I have been struggling with, especially in the last week or two, that I didn't know if I was right or not.
And I've really been struggling with it.
I've talked to a lot of people.
We're going to do something on it next week, hopefully.
But I didn't know if I was right.
And something came out in the special last night that I'm watching and I'm like, oh my gosh, I know this is right now.
Struggling With Islam And Glory00:15:13
I know this is right.
And I want to talk to you about it.
But here's how the special started.
Listen.
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord.
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored.
He hadn't lost the faithful lightning of his terrible swift sword.
His truth is marching on.
Glory.
Glory.
Hallelujah.
Glory, glory.
His truth is marching on.
Look, Islam will enter every household.
Whether you like it or not, why am I in America?
We are in this country purely for the sake of Allah.
Well, the statue of Emily is actually Lucifer, demonic terror, holding the torch of life.
Shocked?
Well, you shouldn't be.
Muslim holy wars date back to ancient times when Islam grew rapidly throughout.
And with it, Christian and Jewish cities, like the Holy Land of Jerusalem, were violently overrun.
Jihad marks the beginning of American history as well.
In 1785, Dey Muhammad of Algier declared war on the United States.
And for Muslim pirates in the region, it became open season to capture American vessels.
U.S. seamen were captured and enslaved.
They were tortured until they agreed to convert to Islam.
And women were sold to be married.
And the battle to preserve the Judeo-Christian Western world from Islamists has never ended.
The religion of Islam will enter every household.
This is the land of Allah, as every land is the land of Allah.
Too, I've seen him in the watch fires of a hundred circling camps.
They have built him an altar in the evening dews and damps.
I can read the righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps.
His day is marching on.
The Western world might think our days battling radical Islam are mostly over, or that we left them behind, just like we did the days of George W. Bush dodging Iraqi shoes and the Afghanistan mess and names like Saddam Hussein.
Or you might think Islamism is reserved for the Middle East, for countries too far to care about, too weak to fight back.
It's a terrifying way of thinking, really, because it couldn't be further from the truth.
See, while America, while Europe, took a sigh of relief after the war on terror supposedly ended, while the West became increasingly distracted by Washington, D.C. and by technology, and by adding pronoun declarations to automatic signatures, Islamists regrouped, they strategized, and they devised a new blueprint to overtake our home with a plan that is arguably more terrifying than any of the others that we've seen before.
We don't say that Islam is here to coexist.
This religion is said to dominate the world.
It sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat.
He is sifting out the hearts of all before his judgment seat.
Oh, be swift my soul to answer him.
Be jubilant my feet.
Our God is marching on.
Like termites building colonies hidden from view, they snuck underground.
They waited.
They infiltrated.
They attacked from within.
And while a war rages overseas, while it seems we're facing victory against Islamist tyrants thousands of miles away, we're losing the battle against their ideological counterparts here at home.
And they took hold of America with such cold, tightly gripped claws that I fear they're never going to let go.
Like oil and vinegar, shadow and sun, the Islamist way of life, Sharia law, is incompatible with the Western world, with your hopes and your dreams for your kids' future.
Incompatible with freedom.
An ideology that supports this.
We don't want a law banning children from marrying because it is against our teaching.
The Prophet's instruction and the Quran.
Cannot coincide with this.
Today, thousands of young girls flock to UT's campus for the annual Stim Girls Day, exploring math and science.
In the beauty of the lilies, Christ was born across the sea with a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me.
As he died to make us holy, let us die to make men free while God is marching on.
One side must win.
So tonight, we learn and we begin to ideologically wake up and fight back.
The battle for freedom, for goodness, wages on.
Glory.
Glory.
Hallelujah.
Glory, glory.
This truth is marching on.
That was the beginning of our special last night.
And we thank everybody who is a Torch subscriber for watching it.
It is going to be released on YouTube.
Hopefully we can get it out next week, but it is going to have to be so highly edited.
I mean, we played just the commercial on YouTube and gone.
On X, it had the black box covering it saying that.
We had a graphic warning.
Yeah, we had a graphic warning for one clip that was maybe 10 seconds in the commercial for it.
And X had to say no, or at least caution.
YouTube is not going to let this thing run.
And so we are going to edit it and get as much of it on the air as possible.
But you won't understand all of it unless you're really seeing the full picture.
And I have to tell you, I've studied this now for 25, 30 years, since 9-11.
I have been studying this.
I have been learning this.
I have been on top of this.
And there were things that just congealed so strongly in my head last night.
The Red-Green Alliance, I understood it in a different way because the way we put this, this special, you've never seen anything like this.
We've never done anything like this.
I don't think anybody has.
It was a live documentary.
And the way it all came together, as I'm at a chalkboard, I'm like, you know, off script.
This is progressivism.
This is progressivism.
They have learned from us what we told you last night about the alliance that they're making on our Native American lands.
It is deep progressivism.
And you'll see it is one in the same.
It has merged so deeply now.
And one of the other things that I learned, and I knew parts of it, but I didn't know until it was all coming together last night.
October 7th hurt Hamas and Hezbollah deeply, especially in the Middle East.
In the Middle East, it's being dismantled.
And the Islamic nations know exactly what it is.
And they're standing against it.
And they're banning it in their own areas.
You know, the thing about, what was it, the UAE, they're no longer sending their students.
They will not pay for students, their citizens to go have education abroad in England because they say England is a hotbed for Islamic radicalism.
They're saying their students are going over to England, going to Cambridge, going to these places, and they are coming back Islamic radicals.
The UAE is saying that.
So they're wide awake on what's going on, but we're not.
So while that's all being dismantled in the Middle East, that they are putting in things saying, go, don't do this, don't do that.
We've got to stop these people.
We're still welcoming them.
And their radicalization after October 7th became much, much worse, much worse.
Glenn, when we put the censored version of this special on YouTube, can we edit out the crying?
Shut up.
I wasn't crying.
I held myself together.
I was moved.
I was moved.
It's that good, guys.
It is really, really good.
One other thing on it that I'm thrilled because I have been saying something and I've had pushback on it from people I really respect.
And I thought, I'm not sure if I'm right.
And I've been doing my homework behind the scenes.
But what I've been saying to you is there's a difference between Islam and Islamist and Islamicism.
And really smart people will say there is no difference.
There is no difference.
If you're a Muslim, you're in it.
And that didn't feel right to me, but I didn't know, I didn't know for sure.
And last night, we showed you some facts.
I mean, it was full of facts and the documents and the testimony and everything else.
I showed you that I think it was around 2010, there was this radical Muslim Brotherhood style group that started buying up all of the mosques here in America.
And when that started to happen, and I can't remember the year, but when that started to happen, the regular American Muslim started crying out to the government for help.
We're being taken over by hardliners.
Help, help, help.
Stop this.
And we didn't do anything.
We didn't do anything.
And when I heard that, I thought, there's your evidence.
There are Muslims, lots of Muslims that are saying, I don't want anything to do with this.
Care is absolutely not helpful.
Let me just say it that way.
And should not be listened to.
Care, they did a study on care.
They asked Muslims because they say they represent the Muslim American.
What was it?
Was it 6% or 10% of Muslims when asked, who represents you?
And they had a list of things.
CARE got like 6% or 10%.
They don't represent the average.
They know what is happening.
But if we don't stand with them, if we're not firm, they have no place to go because they'll be killed first.
And as Ryan said in the Ryan Morrow, one of the researchers, he said, some of the strongest tips I get, some of the stuff that is the most potent, where I'm like, oh my gosh, that guy is a terrorist.
He's like, it's an American Muslim that is turning them in, is saying, look, I have to be really quiet on this because I'll be killed and my family will be killed.
But this is what's going on in my mosque and help, help, help.
So there is a difference.
There is a huge difference.
And we're going to give you some answers on some things on what you can do.
And take your phone call, 888-727-BECK.

Here's a clip from last night's broadcast.
Before we go any further, let me give the usual stipulation.
This is not about Muslims as people.
This is not about your neighbors.
This is not about religious freedom.
This is about political Islam, Islamism.
It is not the same thing as Islam, or so I believe, although that is debatable.
We are talking about an ideology.
Stop there.
That is at the beginning of the special.
My opinion changed on that.
I added, that was not in the script.
I added, although that is debatable, I added that because I wasn't sure.
I changed my mind by the end of the special.
You really, this will really wake you up.
Let me go to Ron in South Carolina.
Hello, Ron.
Quickly, we've got just about a minute.
Hey, what's up?
Hey, how are you doing?
Good.
I wanted to find out what as American citizens we can do to help stop the Red-Green alliance.
So one of the things that you can do, and I hope that Ron DeSantis will come on with us next week.
Title Lock Property Theft Scam00:03:18
We've been trying to get to his office and get him on, and we haven't been able to connect our schedules.
But Ron is probably, Governor DeSantis is probably the best.
He just passed a sweeping law in Florida with teeth.
And that's what has to happen.
Every state must start going after Sharia law and must start paying attention to these things, or you're going to lose us state by state.
So that's why you don't have to wait for Washington.
There are things, and I hope to have some people on next week that can talk specifically about this.
Things in your own state that must be done and you can no longer dismiss.
As you saw in the special last night, if you dismiss these things that are coming progressively, little by little, you'll miss the bigger picture and it will be too late.
And we are running out of time.
I think Europe is out of time or damn near out of time.
We've got about five years.
We lock our cars.
We set our alarms.
We install cameras.
But there is one thing most people don't even realize can be stolen, and that is the title of your home.
Criminals can forge documents.
They can file them online.
They can make it look like your property is theirs.
And from there, they can try to take out loans against it.
And you may not know anything about it until the collection agencies and the bank notices start showing up and then the sheriff.
By then, you're the one trying to prove you didn't do something that was wrong.
You didn't even know it was happening.
Home Title Lock monitors your home's title and alerts you to suspicious activity so you can act before a bad situation turns into a financial nightmare.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Glenn Beck is on.
So the new prime minister of Japan is at the White House yesterday and runs up to Donald Trump and hugs him.
I'm telling you, she's a robot.
That's a Japanese robot.
Japanese people don't behave that way.
Japanese Robot Prime Minister Joke00:05:32
It was an amazing scene, but then they get into the oval and I'm telling you, Donald Trump is the funniest, by far, the funniest president, comedian I think we've ever had as president of the United States.
I don't think there's anybody funnier.
What he said in a press conference?
Wow.
We have to play it for you coming up in just a second.
And the news of the day and the week.
By the way, pray for Chuck Norris.
Chuck Norris was hospitalized.
He was in his home in Hawaii and something happened.
Don't know exactly what happened, but pray for Chuck and Gina Norris.
I mean, the guy is an icon, and they, together, the two of them have done more for kids in America than a lot of us combined.
So pray for Chuck as he is in the, as he is in the hospital.
Okay, we're going to get to the show here in just a second.
First, give me 60 seconds to tell you about Rough Greens.
You know, if you've ever had a dog that doesn't want to eat, oh my gosh, it is the worst.
It is the worst.
He's got to, he got to eat, he got to eat.
And we used to, honestly, we used to fight over whose turn it was to feed Uno in a bad way because none of us wanted to do it because you, I mean, it was, you had to be stealth.
You put the food in the bowl and then you stood there and then he'd sniff it and then he'd look at you like, are you leaving?
You'd be like, no, I'm just going to stand here completely still.
And then he would start to eat.
And then if you moved at all, he would stop eating and he'd just look at you.
And you had to stand there.
And sometimes if he wouldn't eat, you'd have to put it in your hand and then hold it out and then he would eat it out of your hand until he got started.
It was the worst.
Then we found rough greens.
Now, rough greens made all kinds of difference in his body.
He was much healthier.
He lived a longer life, I think, than he would have without rough greens.
That's just me, as all the vitamins, minerals, and everything else.
But it was like dog crack.
We didn't have to stand there anymore.
You would put the food in the bowl, you'd put the rough greens on top, and then all you'd hear is his chain banging up against the bowl and him nosing it up next to the wall, trying to lick the bowl clean.
That's a huge difference.
So that's an advantage, at least if you have a dog who just doesn't like to eat.

Okay, I've got to play this.
This is Donald Trump yesterday with the Prime Minister of Japan.
And a Japanese reporter said, why didn't you tell your allies, why didn't you tell Japan before the war?
Listen to what he said.
Of course, no, Japan and US are very good friends.
But one question, why didn't you tell US allies in Europe and Asia, like Japan, about the war before attacking Iran?
So we are very confused about Japanese situations.
Well, one thing you don't want to signal too much, you know, when we go in, we went in very hard and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise.
Who knows better about surprise than Japan?
Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?
Okay?
Right?
Yes.
He's asking me.
Now, you believe in surprise?
I think much more so than us.
And we had a surprise, and we did.
Okay.
Let's joke with the people of Japan.
I think enough time has passed.
I think the statute of limitations, it's like making an Abraham Lincoln assassination joke.
I think we're there.
You know, I think we could do it.
Like, John F. Kennedy, what was on his mind?
I don't know.
His mind was probably on the trunk of the car.
You know, that kind of stuff.
I think we're past the statute of limitations.
We can make horrible jokes.
It's not polite.
I shouldn't have made that joke.
I know.
I'm going to burn in hell for it.
Baby Jesus, let me smell your sweet hay of the manger again.
But I think we can get over it.
But no, what president does that?
What president does that?
The greatest president of all time.
I mean, he is just.
You are.
If you don't find him funny, if you don't get that he is trolling almost all the time, you've missed a sweet, sweet, fun ride.
He's improving network ratings with stuff like this.
And Melissa Chen, brilliant woman.
You should follow her on X, MS Melchen.
She actually collected some of his greatest hits.
Remember when he told Ergon that he knows about rigged elections better than anybody?
Oh my gosh.
That was a good one.
We had the Trump.
Trump sprays the Syrian president with cologne and he asks how many wives he has.
This is this last term.
Oh my gosh.
Oh my gosh.
You got that fatty North Korean guy who loves nukes.
And this was a few, I think it was during his first term.
He said, so we look nice and handsome and thin.
This guy, we don't deserve him.
What I love about that was all the faces of the Japanese press pool looking at each other with that, is it too soon to make that joke at comment?
I didn't really know.
Can we laugh too?
I don't know.
North Korean Fatty Nuke Threats00:14:52
This is Uncharted Roderick.
Oh, man.
I love it.
I just love it.
Hey, I just got bad news.
It looks like Chuck Norris has died.
The news just broke while we were talking about Japan.
He's a friend of mine.
We've known each other for the longest time.
He was one of the most giving men I have ever met and completely normal.
Completely normal.
Here's a guy who is known all over the world, is a megastar everywhere he goes.
Everyone loves him.
And he was Chuck.
He was just a normal guy who dedicated himself to making the lives of children better.
He knew that the discipline of martial arts would change people.
And he started a program here in Texas in some of the harder-hit areas in Texas where kids didn't have dads.
They were falling into drugs and everything else.
And so he started his Kickstart program.
And it changed kids.
My son was really struggling when he was younger.
And we were over at Chuck and Gina's house.
and we stayed overnight, and the next morning, I see him and my son walking outside.
He said, I'm sending somebody to your house because I see greatness in you.
And I know you're struggling.
I'm sending somebody to your house to get you started on your black belt.
Because once you learn this discipline, everything will change in your life.
And it wasn't because it was my son or me.
That's the way he was with everyone's son or daughter.
I can't tell you I have met a bigger star than Chuck Norris, a man who has accomplished more in his life than Chuck Norris.
And a more regular guy than Chuck Norris.
A lot of that had to do with his wife, Gina.
And I would ask that you pray for Gina.
She was a titan.
Everybody's like, you know, Chuck Norris, you can't hurt Chuck Norris.
You know what I mean?
You can't hurt Chuck Norris?
Gina will punch you in the face if you come after her husband.
She's an amazing woman, and the two of them together were dynamo, an absolute dynamo.
And he has left more than jokes on how tough he is behind.
He has left a legacy of good and strong young men and women.
So our thoughts are with Gina Norris and the family on the passing of Chuck Norris.
Let me pause for just a second.
Let me tell you about Z Factor.
Three in the morning, you're sitting in your living room, feet up on the sofa.
Man, I hate finding out things like this in the middle of a show.
Feet up on the sofa watching reruns of MASH on TV and you're bleary-eyed and you're dreading the day tomorrow and you already know it's going to be a long one because once again, you just couldn't get to sleep.
Now, picture this.
You've forgotten what MASH was even about because you haven't seen reruns of it in so long.
You know, because you're sleeping every night and you're sleeping all the way through.
You're getting that much-needed refreshing sleep.
If that seems impossible to you, I can tell you it's not.
Z-Factor is made by the same people who make Relief Factor, and I can tell you from personal experience, it's amazing.
It helps your body get to a natural, peaceful state of sleep.
And it not only helps you get there, but it also helps you stay there through the night.
So the next day, you're refreshed and ready to take on the day.

10 seconds, station ID.
Ricky just told me she just saw.
Oh, yeah.
The memes are coming in.
You guys know the memes about Chuck.
He doesn't sleep.
He waits.
When he swims, he doesn't get wet.
There was one that just replied to the post about him passing, and they said, Chuck Norris doesn't die.
He left to beat up the Grim Reaper.
Do you know the story behind those jokes?
No, tell me.
I'm sitting there and we were telling Chuck Norris jokes with him about his favorites and everything else.
And I said, how did this happen?
And he said, Gina comes in one day and he said, there are these jokes that they're seeing.
And I think it was even before the internet.
I don't remember.
But they see these jokes going around.
And she's like, this has got to stop.
This has got to stop.
And he's like, I think they're kind of funny, but okay.
And their son, Gina, is talking to their son and she said, this has got to stop.
He said, Mom, uh-uh, this makes dad more popular than ever.
She's like, really?
They had no idea, but somebody had started it, and it just went on and made him really into much bigger of a legend than he ever was.
Do you think the memes that we're starting to see about George AI will make you a legend?
No, but it'll make him hot and sexy.
Do we have any porn music or anything, Sarah?
Because I don't know, did you see this?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Where is that story?
You have the headline.
This is from Vanity Fair.
Stand by.
Stand by while we have the sexy music.
Yeah.
Vanity Fair, you know, tears George AI apart and says it's, you know, Glenn Beck's words, which it absolutely is not, cannot be.
Shows they have no understanding whatsoever of what George AI actually is.
They just think it's Chat GPT.
It's not.
It's only the words of the founders.
Okay, I have the headline here.
This is a massive story.
I love that Vanity Fair covered you.
They're considered a prestigious magazine, so I don't know why they're covering you.
Glenn Beck's AI George Washington is a right-wing sexual fantasy.
A presidential biographer fact-checks the historically inaccurate digital president who has been artificially enhanced with modern-day aesthetics and ideas.
Glenn.
There is no modern-day idea.
It has no information past 18.
We're going to make what once we get this down and I'm ready to release it.
We're going to give you the algorithm.
We'll give you the code so you can see exactly how it can work.
Nobody, you're not going to be able to read the code.
I can't read the code.
But anybody who's an expert will go, oh, well, I guess it can't do what they're saying it can do.
But here's the important part.
They thought he was hot and sexy.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, baby.
Taxation without representation.
Oh, yeah.
Sarah, help.
Like, it was funny for a second.
Now I'm ready to go home.
By the way, did you see Kathy Holkle just came out in an interview and said, rich people are leaving our state because of high taxes?
No.
And she begged them to come back.
This is insane.
Why would you go back?
First of all, it's a little late.
I moved.
I pulled up.
Do you know rich people, you know what they have to do to get out of New York?
I have some friends who have moved out of New York who have money.
And they were like, Glenn, you can't believe the hurdles they have put.
They are putting checks on you for like two years.
You do anything in New York.
You haven't, you, you go to your doctor in New York.
You're flying back and forth to go to the doctor.
Uh-uh.
You're not actually out of New York.
It is insane what they have done to make sure they trap you and get all of the tax dollars that they could possibly squeeze out of you.
So you can sell your house, you can move your business, but if you're still doing things in New York, they will claim that you actually haven't completely detached from New York.
So they deserve some of your tax dollars.
It's nuts.
What?
No.
So it's the same in California.
And when I finally got out of it, I got out of California and went back to Texas.
They contacted me 24 months later.
So I had been working in Texas, didn't owe a dime to the state of California.
24 months later, they're sending me letters in the mail saying I owe them all this money.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
I don't even live there.
Like what in what in what world?
Finally, I could not ignore them.
I just like piled them up in the corner.
Finally, they were threatening legal action.
So I had to talk to a woman on the phone with their tax board.
She would not listen to me.
She was just reading off of a computer, like, yeah, but you owe this, you owe this.
I was like, ma'am, listen to me.
This is when I moved.
This is when I started working.
So if you look at that, how do I owe the state of California money?
And she goes, sir, now, oh, wait a minute, that is kind of weird.
That is how we are.
That is kind of weird.
How often does this happen?
All the time.
And how many people actually pay it because they get, they're afraid.
They don't, they think, oh, they, they're going to win.
I don't want this hassle.
I'll just pay it.
How many people actually just pay it?
These people, I'm telling you, didn't they just pass in in California, didn't they just pass another tax of like 5% if you're selling your house?
Right?
Did you guys hear that?
I think it was in our morning brief newsletter yesterday that you can get at Glennbeck.com.
There was also another headline today in our newsletter that for the morning brief, you can get at glennbeck.com.
It's free, by the way.
Mamdani urges the state to slash the death tax threshold from 7.3 million to 750,000.
And he also wants to increase the top rate from 16% to 50%.
55-0?
55-0.
From 16%.
Yeah.
So you could never die.
You could never die in New York.
But he can't do that.
I mean, that's a state thing.
So he can't do that.
He's basically just projecting to the rest of his people.
Well, I'd love to do these things.
I'd love to provide utopia, but you know, it's because of that governor.
And, you know, 750,000 in New York City is middle class.
Right.
They're all in hostels.
Unbelievable.
But remember, gang, remember, it's only for the rich.
And you'll notice, you're never going to get the money from the billionaires.
You're never going to get it.
You know, I talked to Tony Robbins.
He wrote a book, I don't remember, about investing in things.
And he said to me in this interview, he's like, Glenn, it is criminal when you understand what the wealthy actually have access to.
They have access to things and then can do things that no one else can do because they have the money to hire the lawyers and everybody else.
And you look at that and you're like, the average person should be able to do this.
And we were having this conversation.
You're never going to get the money from the big guys.
You're going to get the money from the people who are building small businesses.
Okay.
They're just starting out.
They're just starting to crack out and they could become very wealthy.
They could become a big manufacturer, a big company.
But the taxes keep them in that box.
Meanwhile, the Bezos and everybody else, you're never going to get their tax money.
You're never going to get it, period.
And nobody ever talks about that.
They just keep saying, we're going to tax the rich.
No, you're not.
You're taxing the newly rich, the people who were middle class and are now starting to move up.
Help the people move from the middle class up.
What are you doing?
Oh my God, they're just so sweet baby Jesus.
I know he wouldn't say it, but I am.
They're just so stupid.
It's bone-chilling.
The World Policeman Border Crisis00:15:34
All right, let me tell you about Mercury One.
It is a big, big world filled with an awful lot of people.
And tragically, among those people, there are often too many disasters that pop up, sometimes completely out of nowhere, and people die or displace from their homes or they go hungry in the wake of some horrific thing and they need help.
This is why Tanya and I founded Mercury One to keep the, honestly, to stop happening to us, what happened to Germany and Bonhoeffer found out too late.
The hearts of the German people had become cold.
We have to keep our hearts open and warm.
And the only way to do that is to help one another and to have compassion for one another.
So as things get bad, we are some of the first on the ground.
And we don't do the work ourselves.
We are the first on the ground to say who is making a difference here?
Who is actually getting things done and actually helping?
Let's help them do their job.
That's what Mercury One is all about.
Would you become a monthly subscriber and just for $15 a month, give it to our maximum impact fund, which will help us boots on the ground, planes in the air when it's needed?
It's a light in the darkness.

Welcome to the program.
We're going to take your phone calls 888-727BCK.
So if you're holding, please continue to hold for a minute.
But we have a special guest that just dropped into the studio, Stu Bregier.
Hello, Stu.
Glenn Beck.
How are you?
Good, man.
How are you?
Very good.
Good to see you.
Great to see you guys back in Texas.
Yeah.
I have been wanting to talk to you about the war, about the numbers you're seeing, because you're starting a new show in April called Predictable, and it's all on the prediction markets.
And I've wanted to talk to you about this on what are the markets saying about price of oil, how long this is going to last, you know, the economy, what is it going to do to the election?
Did you see the latest from CNN?
Yeah.
Listen to this.
President Trump had a net positive rating of 11 points on the economy.
11 points.
It has fallen by 71 points to a net negative rating of 60.
CNN is saying you don't win an election with those kinds of numbers, especially on the economy.
It's the lowest.
He now has a negative 41-point rating on the election.
I'm sorry, on the economy.
A 41-point net negative on the economy.
This is always about the economy.
How does he turn this around?
How does anyone win with GOP?
Well, I mean, it's particularly a problem for him because it's really one of his big strengths, right?
You know, you come into he was elected in 2024 to a large extent to the because people remembered 2019.
Yes.
They remembered what it was like.
Last time this guy was president of the United States, the economy was roaring.
People love that.
And you look at it now and what you're seeing at the top of the line, what everyone's talking about, obviously, at the moment, is $115 a barrel oil, right?
Gas prices are.
You see the latest?
They're now predicting $160.
You've talked about this 100 times.
Oh, no, we don't survive 160.
Yeah, for an extended period.
Yeah, if you have, we had $130 a barrel oil for three months, and that's what broke us in 2008.
You have 160, maybe three months, maybe, maybe three months before the economy just spirals out of control.
And this time, it's the global economy.
It's all of it.
Yeah, it's a real problem.
And I did a little spring break trip with my kids this week in Texas.
So you go for a road trip.
I can't remember the last time I did a road trip, right?
And you're driving for two or three hours down the highway and you pull off, you get lunch, you stop at the gas station, and my eyes are popping.
In Texas.
In Texas.
I couldn't believe some of the prices.
I mean, diesel was up over $5 a gallon.
Diesel is, was it up 70 cents or something just recently?
It's way, I mean, and that's where your price of groceries and everything else goes up because now moving it from one place to another with diesel, I mean, this is not good.
Yeah.
And Trump's 2024 election was built basically on three things.
One was affordability, right?
People believed the economy would improve with him.
They remembered his economy from 2019.
They remembered also what a good job he did on the border and expected more on the border.
That's also deteriorated, you know, and that is more.
How is that deteriorating?
People like what he, when you say the border, right, that means, you know, immigration generally, I think.
When people talk about his border-specific policies, they're actually still pretty popular.
He's held that pretty well, and they've done a good job of the border as far as limiting illegal immigration.
What people don't like is the stuff that gets promoted in the media, right?
They don't like when there's fighting in the streets between police officers and protesters.
How is that his fault?
I don't think it is, to be clear.
I don't think it's clear.
They don't like, they didn't like the Minneapolis situation, right?
And look, I agree.
But Trump, I think, also recognized that.
There are big changes, right?
Christy Noam is no longer in office, or at least in the process.
You have other big border officials who were being removed.
He put Tom Holman there for a reason, to kind of give a more professionalized version of what he's trying to do.
But still tough as nails.
I think it was a brilliant, brilliant move.
I mean, he's one of those guys who's really tough.
I mean, he got awards from Barack Obama, right?
So it's really difficult to smear him like they want to smear him.
So that's part two.
And then part three, of course, was the easy part, which was not being Joe Biden, right?
A lot of this was just related to, hey, we can't have this guy anymore.
I would say there was a fourth thing, though, and that was we're never going to get into these wars.
And I think that's unfair to say we're never going to get into these wars.
What that means is we're never going to get into one of these never-ending, you know, Middle Eastern wars again.
And I'm not sure that's what we're in, but we might be in one of those.
I mean, only time will tell.
Anybody who says, oh, it's going to be over or it's going to be the worst ever, you don't have any idea.
Nobody has any idea how this is going to end.
We should pray for the best.
We have a lot of historical evidence on what Donald Trump wants to do in these situations, and that is to keep it short, right?
You know, I was thinking about this as, you know, by the way, I'm sorry for oversleeping for the last seven weeks.
Oops.
But it was over the last few weeks.
It's weird because you step away from doing the daily show.
Yesterday was my last Studo's America show on Blaze TV.
And we're starting a new show with Dave Landau, the comedian, coming up in April.
And this is the first day I haven't had a show on my schedule other than vacation days for, of course, here I am.
But it's funny because like thinking about this and stepping back, I was thinking about Donald Trump and his approach here, which is something different than I think we've seen from previous presidents.
And I mean, like, I have a little bit more to it than just that.
I hope so, because that's the most obvious thing I've ever heard.
You know, I was thinking about it deeply.
I think Donald Trump's unique.
But he, you know, we, for a very long time, the criticism of what the United States did was summarized a lot of times by libertarian types, but I think a lot of people, with this idea of we don't want to be the world's policeman.
Right.
Right.
We still don't.
Right.
We don't want to be the world's policeman.
And that was what that meant was we don't want to be involved in wars constantly and rebuilding societies and, you know, nationbuilding all over the world.
But when you think about the phrase specifically, being the world's policeman wouldn't entail that, right?
That's not what police do.
Police, what police do is when something goes, they stay out of your business in theory, right?
Maybe not as much as we'd want sometimes, like when I'm going five miles an hour over the speed limit.
But generally speaking, they stay out of your business until something happens.
And then they show up and they say, wait a minute, this has gone over the line.
We're doing crowd control.
Where this has gone over the line, you're under arrest, right?
I kind of think that's Donald Trump's actual approach.
I don't think he'd describe it that way, but I think he's seeing it as more of an actual world's policeman, which is when things get really crazy, he steps in for a short amount of time.
Police officers don't come in and occupy your apartment building.
They come in, they do the work, they leave.
I think it would be better to say he is not the world's policeman.
He is SWAT.
SWAT just shows up out of nowhere, grappling down a building and going through windows.
And you're like, what the hell has just happened?
And then they're gone.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's even better.
A very specialized police force.
And so I am highly concerned with how this might play out, right?
Because we have not shown control as a country over time to be able to take a big effort like this and unwind it perfectly and all civilizations go back to normal and everything's fine.
That is something that our country has not done well, to say the least.
Just like my statement of Donald Trump being unique, I think that one's pretty obvious.
Trump, however, has shown a propensity to do it this way.
Like, I, you know, looking at, I think you might feel this way as well.
Like, you look at Venezuela.
If you're going to take out the president of Venezuela, like, I would hope that they would have a chance to be able to have something unlike a socialist dictatorship.
Well, but that's, that is what, you know, elections are coming.
Yeah.
And I think that's the whole goal eventually.
That wouldn't have been a plan by another president.
No way.
His whole thing is, what have we learned?
We have learned nation building is bad.
You can't do it.
We have learned that the idea you break it, you buy it, you know, you own it is a bad idea.
So let's not break it.
Let's go in selectively.
And in Iran, the idea is cripple them, you know, with their terrorist proxies, their nuclear, and also the IRGC.
Take out their ability to cause havoc as much as you possibly can.
Then hope that the people rise up and want to have either an election or you get somebody.
I mean, I think Donald Trump would leave and say, okay, well, it's up to you.
If the people didn't rise up, it's up to you.
And they had an Islamic leader.
He would be fine leaving them in power, not happy, but he would be okay leaving them in power because he's not going to blow the whole country up.
He's not going to cause that chaos.
Same thing in Venezuela and Cuba.
He's not going to destabilize to where you have a Libya on your hands.
He's going to say, that one individual is gone in Cuba.
Now, have free and fair elections and, you know, real fear of free elections.
Same thing in Venezuela.
Or he'll just keep going, oh, you didn't want to do that.
You're gone.
So it's a completely different approach.
Yeah, I think that's true.
And I think people who support Donald Trump generally are giving him lots of leeway on that.
I mean, you mentioned no foreign wars and all of that.
And I think there is a contingency of the Republican community.
Obviously, we see it widely represented online that says, hey, we don't want to be involved in this Iran thing.
There's not a ton of evidence, though, that that is a widespread concern at the moment for Republicans.
I mean, the latest poll has 83% of likely Republican voters strongly or somewhat supporting the efforts in Iran.
9% say they strongly or somewhat oppose it.
And it's even stronger, by the way, among MAGA voters, people who self-identify as MAGA types.
Like these aren't, you might say, oh, gosh, well, the MAGA types were the ones who are really fighting for that.
You know, part of that is just because Donald Trump's doing it, right?
And it's his idea.
If it was another president, they might not be on board with it.
Hang on, hang on.
I don't think that's blind.
Maybe with some people.
I don't think it's blind.
I think Donald Trump has shown so many wins have been put, especially with the military.
Win, And unpredictable.
Never seen anything like it.
You're like, you know what?
The guy seems to know what he's doing.
I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I'm not president.
I wouldn't have necessarily done that.
He is.
He's got a plan.
He's shown me that these things are part of a bigger plan.
I'm going to go with it.
I think a lot of MAGA people are like that because that's where I'm at.
Yeah, you're lending him some trust.
And when you have someone who's done, like his foreign policy, there's been a lot of wins.
I mean, there's been a lot of wins on the foreign policy.
Foreign policy is mainly wins.
Yeah.
And unfortunately, for the electoral purposes, most people don't really care about it.
That's not why they vote.
So the other things that are really important here are what he needs to get under control.
If you want the election to not be a complete catastrophe, and there is a risk, obviously, if you're at $160 a barrel oil, there's no way this isn't.
This is the thing that kills me.
Why, if you're President Trump, you know you're underwater with the economy.
He knew that you got to fix the economy.
Why would he do this?
Why would he do this?
Was he convinced it really would be over in six weeks?
And it might be.
Is that what it was?
You know, why would you do this?
Because this is the biggest risk on multiple fronts.
And this is, you know, risk big, win big, risk big, lose big.
He's a guy that puts his chips down on the table when he thinks he's right.
This is the biggest risk I have ever seen a president make in my lifetime.
And maybe as far as I can think out from, you know, historically, I don't think I've ever seen a president make this big of a bet on something.
Rapid Radios Disaster Pricing Risks00:14:15
Because if it goes wrong, it's over.
It's over.
More in just a second.
Let me tell you about rapid radios.
You're a business owner.
You know, one of the things that can turn your smooth operation into a chaotic mess pretty much instantly is loss of communication.
It's pretty much the kiss of death for productivity and safety.
And there is a comfort that comes from knowing you can reach people that you work with without having to rely on a system you don't control.
Because as soon as the power goes out, the towers go down and the networks get overloaded.
Most communication tools we depend on every day just stop working.
Rapid radios exist for that exact reason.
They give you a simple, reliable way to stay in touch when cell phone service is unreliable or gone altogether without requiring technical skills, license, or a steep learning curve just to turn them on.
Right now, Rapid Radios is offering over $300 in free gear with your order, including tactical radio bag, a USB charger, EMP Faraday bag.

Well, now that you've got that metal picture in your head, Glenn Beck will be right back.
Stu is joining us for a while here on the show.
Going to be with us, hopefully, for at least another half hour.
I wanted to ask you the question we asked going into the break.
Why would he gamble like this?
Does he know something that we don't know?
Is it possible it was just a misjudgment that he thought it could be over quickly?
Things on the ground change.
Why would he do this?
Well, first of all, I was here for 28 years and Glenn tried.
He told me over and over again, I'm going to the president and I'm going to convince him to go to war and I stopped him for 28 years.
And I'm away for a few weeks.
Here we are in the Middle East again.
Right, please don't mention the bags of cash I get from Israel.
You know, I think a couple of things.
One, I think one thing that's been kind of downplayed here is that Donald Trump really thinks this is important.
This has been a central issue of Donald Trump's view on the world since at least 1980.
I mean, he was commenting on this is a central story as he was becoming a prominent figure in our society.
And it's been going on the entire time.
You see that quote from, what was it, 1982, where he said, you know, what I would do is I'd go get Carg Island.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
And that's what we did last weekend.
It's like, wow, I'm surprised.
So I think it's that.
He's also had a real big run of successes with the military.
And so I think he did believe and may still be right that this is going to be something that can be over in a few weeks.
But there is risk to that.
and sometimes, as you know, these things spiral a little bit.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Oh, man.
It is Friday and a good Friday it is.
We have Stu back in the saddle with us today.
We're just going over predictions, the prediction markets, what is going to happen with the election, with the war, and everything else.
It's good to hear his opinion.
We're going to continue our conversation here in just a second.
First, let me tell you about Life Lock.
Cybercrime is kind of a gift that keeps on given.
You know, even when you, you know, after you get what they've taken back, you know, if you can get it back, you still are looking at the damaged credit rating and compromised employment background checks and everything like that.
So you might not even be able to pay your bills on time, and then that piles up.
So, hey, congratulations on cybercrime.
It's horrible.
That's why you need Life Lock.
They detect and alert you to threats that you may not spot on your own.
Things like loans taken out in your name or cyber criminals pretending to be you.
And if you do become a victim, they use a team of dedicated U.S.-based restoration specialists to fix it for you.
Your personal information is exposed every day, which makes it dangerously easy for somebody to steal your identity.

Hello, Stu.
Ah, Glenn, it feels like the old days.
I know.
It's so good.
I've missed you.
I really have missed you.
It's been so weird.
It's so weird.
I haven't, and I haven't gotten up before 2 p.m. in any of these days since I stopped the show.
So this is weird.
I've missed you too, Stu.
Ricky, I've missed you as well.
The bags under my eyes, the morgue that I live in now.
I've worked harder.
I've worked harder now, more now than I've worked maybe in my whole career.
I will say, I was watching the special last night.
I could tell.
I could tell, man.
What an in-depth piece of you went really, really deep.
It was amazing just watching it, seeing how many times you have these people admitting this, right?
Like they're admitting they're on record.
You have the quotes.
You have the documents, the documents.
That is, you know, it's something that, you know, you think of these things as theory.
And you pointed it out, and I think you're right, where like, obviously, you're not talking, some guy you're buying, you know, a meal from at a restaurant is not, these are not the people putting these plans together, but those plans do exist.
There are people in power in these organizations trying to execute them and having success with it.
That is terrifying.
It's terrifying.
If you missed a special, watch it at glennbeck.com slash torch.
I wanted to talk to you about, because you're doing predictable, which is coming out in April.
Yeah, predictableshow.com, by the way.
Please go subscribe.
Just free.
It's an email.
That's all you need to do.
And all you do is you're looking at all of the betting markets and predicting investment.
Investment, Glenn.
Sorry.
Yeah.
Sorry.
These are investments.
In investment market.
And, you know, we've always said this.
I mean, right after 9-11, it was DARPA that started a prediction market, a betting market, where they were telling people in the five Eyes community, if you're in the CIA, you're in MI5 or MI6, whichever of the MIs is, you go ahead and you invest and bet on where you think the next strike is going to be.
And they felt that that was the best way to figure things out because when people put their money into it, they are not just being blowhards.
They're invested in that.
So they really do their homework.
Same thing.
This is what Predictable is all about.
Look at the people who are putting their money behind what they think is going to happen because it's a pretty safe bet.
Investment.
Yes.
I agree because it is true.
And I think it goes certainly.
You were the one who introduced me to that story all those years ago and got me interested in it initially because it's an interesting thing.
You're blaming you.
It's your fault.
In so many ways, it's your fault.
But, you know, that is what you do, right?
Like when you put your money where your mouth is, we can look at polls and polls can give us interesting information.
You can listen to commentary.
We tried, I think, over the years very hard to make sure we weren't doing the type of commentary that was just, hey, this is the thing you're supposed to say today.
Here are all the talking points that everyone runs through.
Here's what's hot on social media.
Let us say it again for you.
Oftentimes, you know, it even frustrated the audience.
Like you get to a place where we might have a different opinion than the audience did and blood.
You blow this audience off like six times.
Yeah.
And then rebuilt it and then blew it off, rebuilt it, blow it off.
But they're awesome because they understand that, right?
They come here with the idea of like, I want to hear what Glenn says.
I might not agree and he might be an idiot on this and that's fine.
It's very common in my experience.
But it was.
You know what?
You're a guest on this show, right?
I am.
Yeah.
But this does, what I love about the prediction markets and predictableshow.com, one of the reasons I wanted to do it is because it cuts through not only what the mainstream media tells us, not only what the campaigns tell us, but also sometimes what our side tells us.
Sometimes, you know, even our side with the best of intentions.
So we'll give us what we want to hear.
Tell me anything about the economy, looking at the prediction markets.
There is a possibility that everything is being priced in for disaster right now.
All the markets are going, this is going to be a long, drawn out war.
This is going to be horrible.
Gas is going to be through the roof and oil is going to be $160 a barrel.
If he can shut this off in the next few weeks, it might actually be a boon.
People might go, oh my gosh, it's over and rush back out.
And it could actually be starter fluid for the economy, which he needed to have.
What do you think of that?
I think it's possible, right?
I do think you've seen this happen multiple times already during just the couple of weeks we've done this, where Trump has come out and said, yeah, it's only going to be a few weeks, and the price of oil goes from 115 to 80.
Right.
And I do think when this is over, that's the type of thing that we'll see.
Right.
Of course, you know, Iran has a voice in this, unfortunately, and they can make our lives miserable in that region and keep these things high, even if we want to stop it.
And I think Trump's approach, which has been, I think, is probably the correct one, which is if they continue to do what they're doing, they're targeting oil infrastructure, they're targeting our allies in the region, he's just going to start hitting them harder and harder and harder.
Did you see what Hague said yesterday?
They're sharing the oceans now with – we're going to share the oceans with the Iranians.
We're just going to share the bottom half for them.
I didn't hear that line.
Such a great one.
Hegseth is a quote machine.
I love him.
I mean, remember, Blaise alum, by the way.
He knows on.
He started here.
He started here before he got on Fox.
He was on the Blaze, and he knows how to freeze.
You know, I think there is a real risk that this could be something that is not something that Trump can control easily.
One of the things he's done with the military, you think of all the things he's done.
He said success after success after success.
And over and over and over again, everyone's told him it was going to end in disaster.
Soleimani, right, moving the embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
Venezuela, what may be coming with Cuba, all of these things.
Now, that one obviously isn't done yet, but all of these things have provided.
Right.
They said it was going to be a disaster.
We don't have it yet.
I know, but I mean, they said that, I mean, just go just to the NATO part of that.
Yes, yes.
I mean, look at what he's doing with NATO right now.
He's telling NATO.
I mean, he's doing to NATO and to Europe what he did to the Democrats in the State of the Union.
He is saying to them, hey, you want to keep oil prices down?
And they're like, no, no, we can't help you on that.
They're afraid.
And they know.
They're not saying it out loud, but they know the reason why they're not is they're afraid of their own population.
They are afraid of the Islamic terror and they know it.
And at the same time, he's making them look right at that.
Germany can't even raise an army now because too many Islamic militants are in their country.
They can't get them to, I mean, some positive that Germany doesn't have an army.
I'll just say that.
No, I know it.
But what I'm saying is they know they're screwed.
They know they're screwed.
And he's just pointing that out to them.
Just, hey, we don't need your help.
Like your help.
Why is he asking for that help?
He's not asking it for any reason other than you know you can't do it.
Yeah.
I've been telling you, you're over.
Wake up.
The guy's just a strategic genius.
I mean, and he has taken big bet after big bet after big bet.
And especially with the military, it's just paid off, right?
So that's been, I think.
And that's one thing that does worry me.
Yeah.
Make your biggest mistakes in those moments.
Yeah.
If you become convinced that everything I'm going to do is going to work out that way.
So can I translate the economy stuff to the elections?
Yes.
Ohio Election Upset Strategy Bet00:15:13
So, you know, you come into a Senate election, for example, for the first time, this is now a 50-50 proposition on the ocean markets.
Thanks for jumping by.
I'm done already.
No, go ahead.
It's a 50-50 for the first time Republican Senate control in 2026.
That is, to me, that points to a completely catastrophic outcome.
That's the end of the Trump.
I mean, talk about, you know, it's not just lame duck.
That will be non-stop investigations, impeachment, everything for two years.
They will set the country on fire for two years.
The House is obviously a real, real problem.
That was something like 85% Democratic control.
And I think, honestly, that's pretty well priced.
When we first started talking about this, it was at the high 50s.
And I thought it was, unfortunately, a buy for Democrats at that price.
Now it's at 85.
I don't know that there's any value left in that if you're looking at it as an investment, but I do think that there is a, you know, the Democrats are heavily favored.
And this is history, right?
We know this.
It's always heavy.
You know, you go back, I think it is 9% of the time the party in power has been able to hold on to the House.
Senate is a little bit higher.
It's about 30%.
A lot of that has to do with structure.
Unlike a presidential election where all the states are at zero or House, where everyone is elected every time, you kind of have a scoreboard going in to the Senate.
So the scoreboard going into the Senate is 34 Democrats, 31 Republicans, not up for election at all.
So Democrats have a slight lead when you kick off the scoreboard, if you will.
Then you have sort of a bunch of kind of yawn, should be easy seats.
Let's just take that for what it is right now.
If you look at those seats that are solid for either party, you've got nine Democrats.
I can run through them if you want.
16 Republicans.
Most of those you look at and you'd say pretty safe, right?
Like Alabama, you don't see necessarily.
We've seen upsets in states like this.
You never know when your favorite candidate is going to show up in a dead person's email about an island.
That can happen.
But generally speaking, you'd say like a state like Alabama is going to be pretty safe.
That gets us to 47 Republicans and 43 Democrats.
Then you have leaners, right?
Leaner races for Republicans.
You got Ohio, you have Iowa, and you have Texas.
Now, again, Texas should be easy, right?
They don't put anything.
But Texas is in trouble.
And this is why I went into deep and utter mourning.
A couple of the weeks, I just didn't even go online or anything after Jasmine Crockett was defeated.
She was my girl.
One of our torch insiders actually asked this morning, I need to know how devastated Stu was to learn that she may be trailing.
He's wearing a black armband today.
Yeah, there was a lot of wellness checks, I will say, by my level of life.
That was such a loss.
I wanted her so bad.
Now, Tallarico also sucks.
I believe the people of Texas are not going to fall for that.
He just seems like another beto.
And if you remember, you go back, you look early on, there was a lot of risk that, hey, is Ted Cruz going to be beaten by Beto?
And it got close.
It got within a couple of points.
These polls actually look slightly worse than that election for the Republicans, but we're still at a divisive point among the primary.
It did end up at a couple points, though, did it?
It was, yeah, it was seven.
I thought it was like eight.
It was in that range.
I can't remember the exact, either the polls or the actual election.
I thought the election was around four.
The final polls were six to eight.
But if you look back at this time with Ted Cruz and Betto, it was more like our six or eight point race.
What we're seeing in the polls right now is actually a slight lead for Tallerico.
Stu, yes.
How is this possible?
We have so many opposition clips on this man.
The most prominent being is that he doesn't really like meat.
You cannot be a candidate in Texas who hates me.
You can be a co-host on national radio for 28 years.
Barely get by.
But yeah, seriously, the man doesn't like meat.
That's true.
He's got a lot of very weird.
I would argue that's not even his weirdest position.
I can understand why people would say that it is.
But I think one thing that people are forgetting about Texas right now is that we are still at a point where there are two camps on the Republican side that hate each other.
The Paxton camp, the people who love Paxton and really want him to win can't stand Cornyn.
The people who really want Cornyn to win and don't like Paxton, there's a hatred there between those two parties.
They haven't united.
There's still a lot of people in this voting group of Republicans who are saying to themselves, well, if it's Cornyn, forget it.
And there's a bunch of people saying, if it's Paxton, forget it.
Despise John Cornyn.
I am not a fan.
Despise him.
I'm not a fan.
But if it's glass, nails, and fire that I have to walk through and he's the guy, unfortunately, in this election, I'm going to be that guy that walks through the glass and the nails and the fire to vote for freaking John Cornyn.
I mean, think about it.
That's the way it would be.
He cannot lose Texas.
When I think of Texas, he's horrible.
I hate him.
I know.
I've argued on the show a hundred times to say, hey, the target for Republicans is to take out in primaries people like John Cornyn in bright red states because that's where we can really make the difference.
You know, trying to go after someone like Susan Collins in Maine is not nearly as profitable for their conservative movement.
So I do think, though, once this primary is over, you're going to see some of that fade as we get closer to this election.
And I do think that you're going to wind up with a Republican as a favorite there.
Okay, back with more in just a second with Stu.
Let me tell you, you have to admire a nation that can go through one battle after another, after another, after another, and still live to fight another day.
Part of that is because that country that does that all the time is Israel and it's peopled by the Jews who historically have got to be the toughest people on earth.
I mean, do you know another group of people that have gone through that over and over and over and over?
Anti-Semitism over thousands of years where everybody's like, you know what, let's kill those people over there and they never stop.
The latest conflict with Iran has seen more damage done to the Holy Land and our people.
And God blesses us when we bless his people.
That doesn't mean you have to support their war or their policies or Benjamin Et and Yahoo or anything else.
You just have to make sure you see them as people, as individuals, and help them when you can.
And this is an easy way to do it.
So many people are displaced.
There are so many elderly that just, you know, they have these people that come and bring them food every week and everything else.
Those people aren't showing up because you can't.
You can't.
Well, that's where the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews comes in.
You've got Christians over there who are actually helping feed these people, take care of these people.
As alarm after alarm, alert after alert goes off, these people aren't running to the shelter.
They can't.
$45 right now will help rush life-saving essentials to the vulnerable under fire right now.
Call 888-488-IFCJ, 888-488-IFCJ, or go online to ifcj.org.
That's IFCJ.org.
So give me a final look at the Senate.
Where do you think it ends?
So right there with just the seats we've discussed.
If you're pulling off Ohio, Iowa, Texas, you should be able to do that if you're anywhere near competent as Republicans.
If you can win those three states, you're at 50.
This is why I think 50%, 50-50 idea on the prediction markets right now for Republicans is pretty pessimistic.
They should be able to win those states, and that's all they have to do basically to get to 50.
And you think about, when I think of the Senate, I think of control of the Senate being important for like things like Supreme Court justices.
We've got really old people in there that are awesome, but might be going away.
So you have that.
And then you have five toss-ups.
I have it as Georgia, Maine, Michigan, North Carolina, and Alaska, which is one people aren't talking about yet.
Watch Alaska as a toss-up state.
The Democrats got the candidate they wanted in that race.
You know, the Republicans, not all that popular in the state.
Very risky one in Alaska, which means we could have a very late night if that Senate comes down to that Alaska seat.
Imagine how long we'll be waiting for that one.
But I do think it's a little bit pessimistic to say it's a 50-50 chance.
You're in catastrophe levels.
If oil is $160 a barrel, this is the type of stuff you're looking at and Democrats will win.
I agree with you, though.
Right now, there's a lot of that ultra pessimism priced into this stuff.
So I can be a little bit more optimistic than that.
What do you think the damage is to that's being done by, and I don't want to get into the personalities, but all of the damage that's being done on the splitting of the base, and I don't think it's as bad as people think, but there is a problem of the base being split hard.
Is that damn?
I mean, I started a new show on Blaze TV.
Stu and Dave DoAmerica and predictableshow.com.
Thanks so much for having me.
I don't want to drag.
I don't want personality talk.
You know how I am.
Well, you know, and this is something I think you've tried to achieve, and I have as well.
It's like, I don't do a show about other people's shows.
That's not what I, if you want to hire me to do a show to review someone else's podcast, I suppose you can make an offer.
Right.
Not that interested in it, right?
That's not why I got into this.
I think it's a real problem how this has become about the personalities.
Right.
So what I'm asking you is, is that real or healable by the time we get, is this going to continue to grow?
I tend to think that as we get closer to this election, a lot of that stuff's going to wind up healing.
We saw it in 2016 with Donald Trump.
I mean, there was massive divides between Trump and Cruz and all these other candidates.
And by the end of that, people were pretty united.
So I tend to think a lot of it will heal.
It will get better than where it is right now.
Is that going to be enough is the question.
I don't think it is in the House.
I think it probably is in the Senate.
more in a minute yeah I've got to take some calls and then I want to keep Stu with us as well Let me tell you about Relief Factor.
You know, I feel the need to repeat this sometimes.
I don't endorse products I don't believe in.
I don't endorse products that I don't use.
And that is why I didn't endorse Relief Factor.
They were a sponsor on Blaze for a very long time and I never talked about them or anything else because I didn't use it.
And, you know, Stu was with me all those years.
I was in really bad, really bad pain all the time.
And I really thought I wasn't going to be able to do my job for much longer.
My wife said, why don't you try this Relief Factor thing?
And I said, because it's all natural.
All natural is not going to work.
Better living through farmers.
Get Dow Chemical on the phone.
They'll make me feel better.
And I started taking it.
And I felt it broke the back of the pain.
I don't know how it did it.
I don't really care.
It broke the back.

Let me go to Nick in Ohio who's been waiting for a while.
Hello, Nick.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
Hi, Glenn.
You guys must be exhausted.
That was a lot of information last night on that show.
Everybody's a little blurry-eyed from last night, but yeah, thank you.
The biggest thing that stood out to me was in the documentation how the Islamicists stated boldly that if they don't succeed in the United States, it's over.
And that just gave alarm bells because how they're going to be all guns in, all committed.
And my worry is not every American is going to have the same type of commitment to face that because you have an enemy that knows this is a do or die situation for them.
Everything's on the table.
There's nothing that's not going to be pushed aside.
So I think that is why we haven't seen, because I have, I've wargamed this.
If I'm a terrorist and I want to crush the United States, I've wargamed this so many times.
I think I could take maximum 100 people.
I think I'd do it with 20.
And I think I could bring the country down to its knees if I was a terrorist.
Within a week, I could bring it to its knees.
I'm convinced of it.
And so it doesn't seem that hard.
Alert the FBI.
I hope people are recording.
No, I've actually said to Department of Homeland Security, I'd like to share these ideas with you.
Are we looking into these things?
Because I'm convinced it's not that hard.
And I've not understood why.
Last night during the special, I understood.
Wait, because they don't want the bombs and the terror yet.
They don't want that.
The long-term strategy, if you can keep it all flying under the radar, you can build the entire structure and then you take it down.
And it's progressivism.
I mean, last night, it was so clear to me, oh my gosh, the Red-Green Alliance.
It's almost the same thing.
What the Islamicists are doing is exactly what the progressives have done.
I mean, it's the same strategy.
And you can keep people asleep.
If you're not posing as a revolutionary, you keep people asleep.
If we didn't have the people on the streets as revolutionaries in Minneapolis, if they were just normal people and they're like, hey, this is really wrong, blah, blah, blah.
They could be as insidious in their beliefs of I want to destroy America, but America wouldn't respond the same.
Would you agree with that, Stu?
Silent Football Progressives Destroy America00:04:56
You see what I'm saying?
I think so.
If you were just, if you were quiet and you weren't radicals, you wouldn't wake people up.
You could be radical in your ideology and in your goals, but if you're acting like you're not a radical, you get so far down the road.
You made this point, and I had never thought of it this way during the special last night, that perhaps the imagery of 9-11 and the brutality and the violence has actually helped this movement because it's made us only look out for that.
Yes.
I had never thought of that before.
Did you see what I mean?
I did that on the chalkboard.
I said, here are all the things that we did because of bombs and terror.
We started all these institutions.
We've done all of these things.
Here's what we've done on the silent plan of progressive Islamicism.
Okay.
Nothing.
We've done nothing on that.
They have such a friendly mask that they were able to get a meeting with President Bush on 9-11.
That's special today.
I don't remember ever knowing that.
And we found out later that that group that he was meeting with had ties to Hamas.
I don't remember.
No, Muslim Brotherhood.
Terror.
That particular group.
And they were supposed to meet in the Oval Office at 3.05 with George Bush on 9-11.
Amazing.
And they were the ones that were advising how to, you know, be peaceful and everything else.
And they end up being connected right to a terrorist organization.
It's interesting because I think Bush's intent there is to try to bring what he saw maybe as fringy organizations more toward, hey, come to the good side, right?
And they were saying that they had embedded themselves so deeply in our government at that time.
Imagine what it is now, that they were the ones shaping saying, these are the good guys.
These are the bad guys.
And they were steering towards Muslim Brotherhood people.
And they still are.
And they still are.
Yeah.
And you said the silent, what was it?
What was the word term used?
The silent approach here.
But in reality, as you showed, it's actually not silent.
They are saying it.
They are, I mean, we criticize the government all the time.
And I remember when this went through, I don't know what we would have done without the FOIA situation.
Without being able to get access to these documents, even though we're getting them late, even though a lot of times the government does everything they can to retract or redact things and make sure that we don't know as much as we don't know.
I'm glad that exists because this information would have never come out.
We never would have known it.
Have you seen my interview with Tommy Robinson?
No, I think it's not.
You need to meet.
He's coming back to Dallas.
You need to spend time with him.
He is not the guy you think he is.
I mean, I'm told he's an insane person that needs to be in prison.
Yeah, I know.
That's what I'm told.
He is not the guy.
He is so wildly intelligent and self-educated.
He knows this stuff inside and out.
I don't know about all of his beliefs or anything else, but I spent an hour with him.
He's a remarkable guy.
And I believe he believes he's not going to die a natural death.
And he knows it and he's willing just to go.
He's like, this is too important.
This is Western civilization is at stake right now.
It's amazing.
The perfect banter guest for Stu and Dave Dew America.
Yeah.
Really?
Actually, no, he's funny.
He is funny.
He posted a video.
Sarah Cochran, our guest booker, got him Chick-fil-A and had it delivered to the green room when he was here.
And he roasted Chick-fil-A in the green room.
So if you need a roaster that's from England that you can understand, he's your guy.
He's amazing.
He said, you know, I said, what is a football hooligan exactly?
Because we don't have those here unless you're in Philadelphia.
And he told me and he said, you know, football hooligans, he said, in my 20s, he said, in my town, it was a rough and tumble town.
Like, you know, it was like, I don't know, Philadelphia or Baltimore in the old days where, you know, just stupid 20-year-old white guys are just beating each other up.
And he's like, we would go to a football game on Saturdays and then we would all go and beat each other up.
And he said, we'd have these fights in the streets or right there by the football stadium and we'd beat each other up and then we'd shake hands and we see you next Saturday.
He's like, it was stupid, but that's what that means.
He's like, but that's not who I am.
That's who I was when I was 20.
And he just saw, I didn't know this, his sister was taken by a rape gang and raped.
Oh my God.
And that's how he really started to get involved in this.
And he's like, why won't the police do anything?
Real Estate Agent Trust Document00:08:11
And he is convinced.
I mean, he cried at the end of this interview.
He tears up and he cries because he's talking about how grateful he is to the United States.
You don't know what you have here.
You don't know the hope you gave all of Europe when you elected Donald Trump.
And he's like, please don't listen to our media.
He's like, the average person loves Donald Trump because they know he's speaking their language.
He knows he knows that they know he knows what's going on.
And nobody, no politician is like that in Europe.
And he was crying about, please don't give up.
Please don't give up.
If you guys give up, we're done.
It was an amazing thing.
That's great.
Yeah, I got to check this out.
Let me ask you something else on the predictable.
You're doing a show called Predictable, Predictable.com.
Predictableshow.com.
Sorry, predictableshow.com.
You give me a cut and I'll get it right every time.
But anyway, predictableshow.com.
And it starts in April.
And you're looking at the not betting markets.
It's investment markets.
Investment markets.
Prediction markets.
Prediction markets.
What are they saying about what?
I mean, in the last couple of days, the Democrats voted not to deport illegals who hurt animals, not to deport illegals who steal money from taxpayers, not to secure the elections from illegals.
What is there anything on the Save America Act how that's going to end?
Yeah.
And it's not particularly optimistic.
Okay, get out.
I mean, it's not me.
It's not my optimism.
I mean, I'm not particularly optimistic, unfortunately, either.
But it is, so there isn't a market.
I'm going to give a Calcium market.
This is on Calci.com.
If the Save Act becomes law before January 4th, 2027, then the market resolves to yes.
That's how we're looking at this.
So is it this is basically the entire window of this term, right?
Before the new Congress comes in.
Right now, that is at 10.6% chance.
So it is a long shot for this to happen.
And, you know, it is going to be hard, right, to get to get the Republicans to move in a way that I think is necessary to get the same thing.
They just stripped everything out of it.
They just stripped everything out of it.
Just got to have a driver's license passport.
You might get a baby version of it.
I think that's possible because it is, you know, as every, as the Democrats rejected that.
Yeah, I know.
I do think that there's a chance for a baby save act that has to do with something like that.
I think it's unlikely still, but when you talk about this, and we've discussed this over the years, this is one of the most uniting pieces of legislation when you're talking about general electoral ID.
It's one of the most uniting proposals in our public discourse.
This is one of the most popular things in our entire society when it comes to policy.
I was talking five, 90% in some polls, depending on how you form the policy in the question, will say, yeah, we, well, of course.
Who was it?
I was talking to somebody overseas.
Was it Piers Morgan?
I don't think it was Piers Morgan.
It was somebody overseas this week.
And they said, I don't get it.
Every country in Europe, everybody has to have ID.
Was it Europe?
I don't remember.
It was someplace overseas.
It might have been even the Middle East.
And they're like, everybody has this.
What is the deal with your country?
And I'm like, don't ask me.
Don't ask the American people.
It is nothing but Congress and the Senate.
Conceptually, it's obvious, right?
Of course you have to make sure.
I think, you know, the hesitation from some the only borderline sane hesitation on it is the idea that, hey, how do you prove that you're a citizen at the beginning, right?
The license stuff, I think, is easy for most people.
You know, do you have a birth certificate?
That's where they're pushing back on.
Now, I think that stuff can be healed.
And we've seen this over the years with different electoral ID proposals.
You give people, not everyone has a driver's license, right?
You give people a way to get an ID that works for that purpose.
That is a very easy thing to do.
Government isn't capable of doing a lot of things.
It will be an annoying process, of course, but that's an easy one.
You could find a way to make it so that you don't have to necessarily dig up a document from 1936.
I got news for you, man.
I just moved to Florida.
I walked in.
Everyone knew who I was.
Everyone knew who I was.
Okay.
I had to dig up documents and they were like, sorry, dude, just have to dig it off.
Of course.
I don't know if I have that document.
Well, then you have to find this document.
I don't know if I have that document.
Well, you're going to have to find this.
I mean, everybody has to do it.
That's just the deal.
It's just the deal.
And you know, it's important.
Yes.
I had actually no problem with it because I knew, well, Florida is safe.
You know, one of the first elections we covered together back in the day, I think the first was the 2000 election in Florida, Hanging Chad's.
And one of the main things that I kept coming back to in that whole election was if you want your vote to count for the person you're voting for, you got to read the ballot.
You got to push the tiny piece of paper through the tiny hole.
That's part of it.
The intent of the voter isn't all that important.
You have a task to complete.
It's a tiny piece of paper.
It's been perforated.
All you have to do is push it through a little piece of cardstock.
And if you can't do it, maybe your vote shouldn't count.
No, it's Dimpled Chad's.
Dimple Chad's right.
Dimple Chads.
We got to look at it.
It's like, honestly, you go to school and you didn't complete your homework, but your professor is like, but I think his intent was to finish the homework.
I'm not giving you a diploma.
Right.
There are tasks to complete.
And like in that same election, Pat Buchanan was running on the Reform Party line.
If you remember, they had the ballot where the arrows were pointing at the chad from either side.
And a bunch of people, I think probably true, misread the ballot and punched the wrong hole.
You know what?
If you're going to elect the president of the United States, I want you to be able to look at an arrow.
If you can't see, follow the arrow to the appropriate hole, then maybe your vote shouldn't be the thing determining our democracy, as the FLF would say.
So I think that is an important thing.
And it's part of it.
It's good to see you.
It's great to see you.
Love you.
Hey.
Love you.
Miss you.
Can I at least inform people?
Predictableshow.com.
Go there, put your email in.
We've got great stuff coming on like a sub stack and also a podcast coming up on the prediction markets as it leads to our elections.
And we announced this after actually I left the show.
Stu and Dave Do America on Blaze TV.
Check it out.
No, you can't mention it.
Okay, thank you.
Let me tell you about real estate agents I trust.
Next time you're just standing somewhere in your home, I want you to do something.
I want you to look around, think to yourself, if I wanted to put the home on the market, what would I need to do to get it ready?
When you've calmed down from the panic attack after realizing the answer is like, oh my gosh, so much crap.
Time to realize, simple fact, what you need is an expert because maybe you don't have to do all of that.
A real estate agent that you can actually trust because that agent is going to know the people he or she trusts to do all of those things and know what they have to do and what you don't have to do and do it right the first time.
I believe in this so much because I have seen the difference between a mediocre agent, what they can do, and an amazing one and what they can do.
And I started a company with my brother RealEstateAgentsitrust.com, and it only deals with the amazing brokers.
Please check out realestateagentsitrust.com.
We'll find the right agent for you.
It's a free service to you.
You don't know obligation.
We'll give you some names.
You check them out for yourself.
See if you don't see the difference.
