Rising Prices, UK Fallout & Iran: How Trump Is Managing the Chaos | 5/18/26

You know it's becoming exhausting buying food from companies that want your money, but don't want to tell you where anything is made or anything much about it. You pick up a package, you squint at the label, and somehow you still need a private investigator to figure out what you're actually bringing home for dinner. It shouldn't be like that, shouldn't be hard. That's one of the reasons I like good ranchers. Good ranchers delivers 100% American meat straight to your door, sourced from local farms and ranches right here in the United States.

Pass it on. Crank the game. Glenn Beck is on. Glenn Beck is on. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment, and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Yeah. Featuring. That great. Jeff Fisher this week. Great to have you with us. Thanks for joining us. Glenn was in, of course, Great Britain over the weekend. He was in London. He was there all week. Yeah, very true. But his speech was Saturday. Right. And so it was a pretty big event. Just a tad. Yeah, there was a lot of people. We'll show you the evidence of that. I think it's beyond, just slightly beyond what the police were estimating. What do they say? There were like over a dozen people or something. I don't know. There was definitely. At least the baker's dozen. Yeah, at least. Yeah. We'll get into that and much more coming up. You know, summer used to mean a couple of cookouts, maybe a road trip, maybe taking the kids somewhere for a few days. Now it feels like every time you walk out the front door, it costs $300. And you're pretty well tapped out before you even get fairly started. Gas prices, vacations, summer camps, tuition, payments, groceries, it just keeps stacking up. And for a lot of people, the credit card starts feeling like the only way to keep everything moving. That's why I want you to talk to American financing. They help homeowners look at ways to use their home equity to consolidate high interest debt into one more manageable monthly payment, which could mean real breathing room in your budget again. And what I like is that there is no pressure and no upfront fees, just real people helping you look at real options. On average, their customers are saving $800 a month. And right now, you may even be able to delay two mortgage payments. There's no upfront fees to find out if you qualify. So call 800-906-2440. That's 800-906-2440. Or just go to Americanfinancing.net. So in London, there was the big, what were they calling it? The, I don't know. Free the UK. Unite the Kingdom. That's what it was. Unite the Kingdom. I know it was something fairly easy. Unite the Kingdom. Not that hard to remember actually. And some of them were holding signs Make England Great Again. So Miga. Whatever works. Led by Tommy Robinson. In all of the articles I've seen on this, they also include his real name. Well, I don't know why. And the others, the ones I read also include, he was arrested. He's been arrested all these times. Yeah. That's the point. Yeah. So the whole point. He's, it was pretty amazing. And I mean, he's- Well, they try to spin it as negative as they possibly can. Absolutely. Absolutely. Which- They can't stand him. I mean, no question. And that's exactly why, even when we talked about how they, you know, miscount the crowd. I mean, there was no way there was there, 12 people there. No. I mean, there was more than 12. Yeah, actually, I can't, I can only count to 18. So, I mean, there was more than 18, I think. I think so. I think you're right. Yeah. Actually, the lowest, the lowest number I saw was 60,000 estimated by police, but the highest I saw was 110. But it's way beyond either of those. Oh my gosh. Yes. It's, I think it was in the millions somewhere. I mean, at least 800,000 to a million and a half. Had to be. Somewhere in there. Yeah. I mean, I'd say that was about the range. But you remember when we did the, we did the thing on the mall back in 2010. Restoring. We don't love. Something. We restored something. Yeah, we were restoring something. Yeah. And we restored it, darn it. I don't know if that was- No, that was not it. No. It was- First one wasn't restoring thing. No. We restored something else. We did. I don't remember what. And it's been still restored, so don't even worry about it. That's why we don't remember the name, because it was restored. It's- Let's take a car out. It's irrelevant. We took care of it. But I remember CBS estimated the crowd size on the mall when we had that rally at 80,000. Do you remember that? Yeah. We had 500,000 people there and they said it was 80,000. Oh. Okay. So anyway, they tried, they do their best to diminish these things and make them sound unimportant and a lot less important than they actually were. That's for sure. But they had a bunch of speakers and Glenn was one of them. And here's what Glenn Beck had to say in London on Saturday. I bring you greetings from the United States of America. Hello. It is such an honor to be with you today. It is really an amazing thing to see you all stand up. And I come here to stand with you shoulder to shoulder because of people like Tommy and people like you that have shown the courage to speak and stand when so few will. Thank you. You have truly paid a price for refusing to ignore what is obviously happening all around us. You refuse to not see what's happening to our streets and to our daughters and to our women in the streets. And it means something as an American to see you stand. And I just want you to know there are millions of Americans all across the other side of the world that see you, hear you and are praying for you and are standing with you today. I want to make it clear why I am. Thank you. I will tell you that I am here today like you not to stand against anything and hate not to stand for hatred but to stand for the most revolutionary idea in human history that all men are created equal. And not because of a king or parliament says it but because we are all endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights. Those rights cannot be taken from us by government or religion. No ideology can take them away. They are life and liberty and the right to speak your mind and to speak truth. The right to worship or not worship according to your conscience. Equal justice under the law. These words come from our American Declaration of Independence but they were born here on this soil. They were born here in England, the meadows of Runnymede with a Magna Carta. They were born in the English common law that says even the king is not above the law. In the covenant faith of the Scottish people, the stubborn independence of the freeborn Englishmen who said they will never bow to a tyrant. These are the principles that built the freest most prosperous civilization the world has ever known and Sharia law cannot abide by it. Sharia law cannot live side by side. It does not see all men that are created equal. It does not practice and protect the right to leave that faith or even criticize that faith. It does not grant equal dignity to every daughter and every son under the law. And where Sharia law advances as a parallel system, our hard fought rights retreat and history has shown it time and time again. Our shared failure on both sides of the Atlantic is that we forgot where our rights come from. We have treated liberty as something automatic, something in the air that we breathe instead of the sacred inheritance that needs to be taught and defended and lived by each and every generation. But that forgetting has opened the door but the good news is the uniting hope is that it's not too late to remember. We can beginning now teach our children again that those God given rights, those truths are what makes us free. We can demand that every person that comes to our shore or the shores of any country in western civilization or those who are already here that they must live under the same equal law that protects every citizen. One law, one standard of living, one standard for every man and every woman. And if we can do that then we'll restore what made the worth, the west worth restoring and defending. Great Britain and the United States, we are not separate stories. We are branches of the same tree, the tree that is rooted in equality before God and the law. If we stand together on that foundation, not in anger but in clarity and the courage that you are showing today just for standing here, then our children will inherit not decline but they will again inherit a brighter future, a civilization where every person can come here and walk these streets in safety, speak freely and pursue happiness without fear. That is our fight, that is our inheritance, that is what will unite all of us and renew the west. I am so happy to see all of your flags all in front. We have been told that we should be ashamed. We are not ashamed of our heritage. We have learned from our mistakes. We are proud that our shared heritage changed the world, healed the world and fed the world. And as our President, President Lincoln once said, with malice toward none and charity toward all, let us remember truly who we are, raise your flags and raise your voices. As our President, George Washington said at the beginning of our nation, let us raise a standard that the wise and the honest can repair. The event is in the hand of God. As the scriptures tell us, as for me and my house, we know who we serve. And as our current President, Donald Trump might say, Make England Great Again. God bless you. May God help us save our shared republics and civilization. God bless you. Thank you for standing. Okay, there you go. I mean, that wasn't as long as the restoring honor. This means Washington, D.C. You think? But, you know, yeah. Yeah, it's still pretty good. It looked like everybody was about seven to 10 minutes or so. Because they had a lot of speakers. No doubt about it. That might be the shortest speech Glenn's ever given. I didn't realize he had it in him. I really didn't think that was possible. Because when I heard it was going to be a short speech, I'm like, Yeah, what, an hour and a half? Right. That's just 90 minutes this time. I've cut it down to 70 minutes. It was really good, though. The crowd was so loud. That's the loudest crowd I ever heard while we were speaking. Those people that the camera showed looked like they were paying attention. But the audio we were picking up was a lot. Was crowd noise. A lot of crowd noise. A lot of talking and stuff. Shut up! I'm trying to speak up here. Okay? You rude bastard. Shut up! I don't have to be here. You know, I came across the ocean for you. First I came across a continent. Then I came across an ocean for you. Listen to me! He says that it just gets cut off. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. But really good speech. And, you know, I hope they can get a grip on things because... They do. They do. And they're further down the line than we are. Yes, they are. And we're pretty far down the line. I mean, you're talking about Islamists and you're talking about people who have told you and told us that they're going to take over your country, your culture, your language, your religion. Every house. And every house. We're told this all the time. Yes, we are. Every house will be Muslim. No. No. No, that is untrue. And but, you know, in England, in Britain, it's happening. It's worse. It's even worse. Yeah, it is. It is. And Kier Starmer is not doing a thing about it. No, he's all for it. And so, you know, he just lost his party, just lost a massive election. So? And he doesn't care. Usually that means in their parliamentary system that he has to hold an election and somebody else will be he'll step down. Somebody else will be elected prime minister. I don't understand how that all works, but I don't either. But he's holding on. He's dug his heels in, man. He said the country would fly apart, essentially, if he were to step down. Right. Really? Right. No, I think it'd be awesome. That's what happened. For the nation. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, all right. We've got more for you coming up in one minute. You wake up one day and you check your bank account and you discover that apparently you just purchased a jet ski in Romania. Surprise. Because that's a surprise for a couple of reasons.

Hopefully, you know, we've got some momentum in this country since President Trump to be able to, you know, stand up to the forces that are trying to overtake our culture and our nation. I mean, we've got, we've got Marxists. We have, I mean, in Texas, we've got a real battle. With our, with our Senator, John Cornyn, who's in a battle in the primary against Ken Paxton, who I'd like to see beat John Cornyn, but then that Republican will have to take on James Tellerico, who is a nightmare. He purports to be a minister, a pastor. What is he supposedly? Sure, I went to some school that made him some kind of minister. So he talks a big game on Christianity. He sure does. But the Christianity he speaks is not familiar to a lot of Christians. Here is some of what he had to say about, here's his message on being a Christian in political office. Again, I think we have to have a real conversation within the church, within Christian communities, about what is our, our relationship with power. Because in my mind, as a Christian, power that is not shared is, is also domination. And in a democracy, it's all about sharing power. We acknowledge that power is real and that it has consequences. And we commit to sharing that together as a, as a nation, as communities. And I think that's where we have to strive. Theocracy, in my mind, is the most dangerous form of government. We're not a theocracy either. Because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God. And that's why our faith in Jesus should lead us away from theocracy, away from tyranny, away from Christian nationalism, and toward a multi-racial, multicultural democracy, where we can all freely love God. And fully love our neighbors. Wait a minute. Can we not do that now? I know you cannot. God, I, I love my neighbors. I don't know them, but I, I have a kind of an invisible love for, you know. But, uh, There's nothing like that invisible love though. No, there's nothing like it. It's beautiful. When you have an invisible love for people that you've never met, it's really powerful. It's important and it's powerful. But I do love God. We do. There's not a more diverse society in the world than what we have in America. What is he talking about? I mean, it's, it's like there's only one version of people on, I don't know what, what country you're looking at. Right. But it's not this one. And I doubt, I mean, Jamie Lynn, current, current Lima, right, Jamie, current Lima. She didn't look like she was ready to push back. Oh, is that who that Jamie Lynn? Yeah, Jamie Lynn. Karna, she as a, She liberal because I can't imagine him showing up on a conservative. That's correct. Yeah. She's a billionaire, made a bunch of money in makeup and she spent a lot of time on the, on the Northwest coast of America. So you make your own mind. Yeah. Oh, geez. Yeah. No pushback at all. No. But you're not going to get that from her. No. Obviously. And he won't show up on a show like this. Not a chance. Not in a million years. It's the view and Jamie Lynn. Yeah. That's about it. Yeah. Um, but sadly, he leads both Cornyn and Ken Paxton in the polls, leading up to the primary, which is what next week? Take next week. The Cornyn Paxton primary is next week. And then of course, whoever wins that will take on that buffoon in the general election. So say a prayer for Texas because you can't lose Texas to this guy. No way. No way. More coming up. We've all done it. We tried to save a buck or two buying a knockoff that ends up being more costly to fix or replace. Hopefully we've learned in the end knockoffs are not a good idea.

Triple eight seven two seven B.E.C.K. if you'd like to get in touch with us during the course of the show. And we got something a little bit lighter than we started out with. We've got a fat five coming up. All right. Well, that's true. Thank you. And it was accepted. I'm going to start out with telling you wholesale prices have their highest annual increase in more than three years last month. So if you had the highest in three years, that's correct. So if you actually do your own shopping, you already know this because you are the data and this confirms it. But hey, right. Iran doesn't have nukes. Right. So there you go. Fort Worth, Texas is now the 10th largest city in America. Look that if you have put Dallas and Fort Worth together, DFW, the Metroplex, we'd be in just in fourth place. Fourth place. Yeah, just in fourth place. Not but it's close though. We're gaining on Houston. You still have New York. New York does not have more than 9 million people. For a long time since I remember New York, not having 10 or 9 or 10 million. Yeah. I mean, this is... Well, are we talking Metro... If we're talking about Dallas, Fort Worth, that's the whole Metro area, right? That's the Megaplex. Correct. So we're not talking about Metropolitan, New York? Well, I... Because I think just New York City is not eight or nine million. So like that. Right, eight and a half. I think the whole area is almost 20 million. Okay. Well, that makes sense. This says New York City is 8,584,000. What do they have for Los Angeles? 3,869,000. I mean, that's second place. Okay. Chicago is third. 2,077. These are just the cities proper. This is not the Metro area. Right. Because Houston and DFW are very close. I mean, if we would be top... Our fourth place is 608, and they have 97, 315, so what? 40,000 maybe, something like that. Then... Both Dallas, DFW Metroplex and Houston are around eight million though, if you're talking about the whole area. Greater, yeah. Because separately, I mean, the Dallas city and Fort Worth are nine and 10. Mm-hmm. When you do them separate, which is... I found interesting. Austin is 12th. So you look at this... I mean, we have Houston, San Antonio, which is in seventh place, 1,055, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin. Wow. In the top 12. Okay. Cities are growing. Yeah, cities are growing. No question. And Jacksonville is 11th, which I've... It does tell you though that Texas is closed now, that there's no more vacancy. That's exactly what that tells you. Yeah, we... Vacancies. We really did want people to come here and join the state, but... Yeah, it's too late now. You can't. Too late, you can't. What are you gonna do? We're closed. No vacancies. And then, you know, there's a great state, Oklahoma. Yeah, they have vacancies still. It's not really that great of a state, but... Yeah. Still. They have to go there. There's vacancy there though. And you know where you... Louisiana is beautiful. Oh, this time of year? You could go there. Mm. Go there. I hear Mississippi has really cheap land. It's lovely. So... It's lovely. Go there. Mm-hmm. Go there. Go on the East Coast. I don't know if Florida's closed yet or not. I don't know. No, I think it's pretty open. It's wide open. Yeah, okay. You could go there. Just not Texas. Mm-hmm. So who's the coolest celebrity? 77-year-old Samuel L. Jackson, who started more movies that have grossed $100 million or more around the world than anyone else, according to Guinness. He's the top, the coolest of the famous figures that the majority of Americans actually see as cool. So you have Samuel L. Jackson as number one. Mm-hmm. Number two, if you look at the chart, is The Beatles. Michael Jordan. Okay. Willie Nelson. Mm-hmm. Clint Eastwood. The Rock. Yeah. Ryan Reynolds. All right. Serena Williams. The bottom two should not be on this list. Barack Obama. Meryl Streep. Oh, man. Oh, I mean, the only... How did they sneak in? I don't know. The only good thing about this is that they have, well, Barack is tied for no love and not good at all, not cool at all, and cool, both 34%. Meryl Streep is underwater. She has 24% cool, which I don't know how you get that with Meryl, but she has 27% not cool. So she's underwater with that. But the rest of them, I mean, I guess, you know, sure. Sure. All right. I mean, that's cool. Like Ryan Reynolds. He's fun. Yeah. He's fun. Yeah. He couldn't get his wife in line, though, with that whole lawsuit thing. So the little issue she should have told her Blake easy. Yeah. It's not going to work behind your side, but you couldn't do it. So it was a little disappointing for Ryan. Soon to be on the coolness chart will be the next 007. Amazon MGM has started auditioning for the next 007. They brought in... They brought in Nina Gold to find their bond, and she knows her way around the franchise. She's done Game of Thrones and The Crown and all five Star Wars films. So industry chatter has landed on Jacob Elrady, Australian actor, or Callum Turner, British actor, or Aaron Taylor Johnson, another Brit as front runners, though producers had already floated. We talked about it going with an unknown. So the Bercouli family has held creative control of the franchise for over 60 years before they handed the keys over to Amazon last year. And they were afraid that Amazon was going to water it down. But it looks like they're going to keep it going, and they're going to keep it going with a fine 007 actor that's a male and good looking instead of a female trans person as the new 007. Because that would be great. That would be great if there was actually a... Yeah. I think a trans person should fill every role from now on. All of them. That's kind of where I am right now. Yeah. Yeah, just let them have every role. You are actually pretty much with the Academy. Yeah, I am. With the awards, and we just loosen up with that. Just let them all. If you can't find a trans actor, don't do the movie. Don't do it. Because they should be the lead character in every movie. If they're not, you get a check mark against you for the movie. Sure is true. And if you don't, you have to have... I watched a show on Netflix. Shoot. Death by Lightning. About President James Garfield. His death and the guy that shot him and everything. That sounds riveting. It's not bad. It's a four-episode show. Sorry I missed that. It's not bad. I'm going to track it down starting today. It's not Netflix. It's very afternoon. It should be in your timeline. Yeah. But anyway, there's an opening scene where it shows Chicago. And it shows a black man with the black man. A black man with one leg walking with Keynes. And then a female. And then another black guy. And there's a Chinese guy up to the side. And just a one little white guy. And they're just walking down the street. I'm like, that was not Chicago in 1880. I'm sorry. No, that was not Chicago. In the 1800s. Yeah, absolutely. I'm sorry. No. But yeah, I got it. It's just... That's great. Yeah, they have to. They think they have to. So they do. I mean, my wife and I are watching this Hallmark series, which is... It's actually good. Is it? It's called The Way Home. It's gonna be a hard time. Oh, man, that sounds so much better than death by lightning at the James Garfield. Actually, it is. It is better than James Garfield's story. I'm pretty confident of that. I don't think so. But of course, Hallmark, some time ago, years ago, decided that they were going to play the LGBTQIA2 Plus game. And so they are. And so they've got a lesbian couple in there and a trans person in there that made sure... Of course, you have to. Made sure they told everybody that their... You have to. ...pronouns were not she or him. It was they, them. Right. They, them. They have to. So many shows. So, okay, well, good for you. And it's not just Hallmark. It's the... Oh, it's all of them. It's the other networks. I mean, they absolutely, if it's a new show coming from a network, If it's in the last two to three years. Someone will be gay. Yes. Someone will be gay. But that's not enough. Someone will be trans. Right. And you have to have a multiracial LGBTQIA Plus together. That just has to happen. Yeah. It has to. Yeah. And some of the shows I really like, so I just let it go. I'm like, of course. Of course they're gay. I know. Of course. I know. All right. That's the way they are. Because everyone in my neighborhood is exactly like that. Even my invisible love that I have for my neighbors. Exactly like that. Okay, good. Exactly. So our neighborhood is ready. Because every neighborhood has to have .7% trans people. When we get together, there's always the handicapped black. Right. Right. Right. Have to. And the female and the handicapped male always. That's America. Have to. Right. I mentioned this on our daily morning show, Pack Around Least. Here's right before this show, actually. 7-9 Eastern on Blaze TV and other platforms. The podcast is also available wherever you get your podcast. Please subscribe and enjoy Pack Around Least. I'm not worried about this, but I am a little apprehensive. Tonight at around 6 p.m. Eastern, the asteroid 2026 JH2 is going to shoot over Earth's surface. Catchy name. Right. They name them good. They do. Yeah, they think of it. That's a scientist at those big telescopes. They just, oh, you know what? That's 2026 JH2. Yeah. Yeah. That's what it is. Huh. That's what it is. So that's going to be, it's going to fly past us at 56,000 miles. So that's between us and the moon. For sure. But they claim that there's, it's closer to us than a handful of spacecraft. But there's no suggestion that these spacecrafts are at risk. Okay. And it's going to fly above the satellites. Geez. Okay. So. All right. That's, if you say so, and it will not impact the planet. All right. All right. I hope you're right. You say so. It's, it's apparently 115 feet across. They really don't know. They're just guessing, but they believe that that's how big it is. That's like the size of, I don't know, the blue whale that we have on this planet. So, whether they, So even if it hit us, it wouldn't be a planet killer. It is not a planet killer. No. But it would do some damage. And it may, you know, like if it hit your house. Yeah. That would be some damage. It would be bad. Yeah. I would not enjoy that. No. Even though my house is in disarray right now, I wouldn't appreciate a. Really? A asteroid hit it. I mean, you can start again. No. No, thanks. You can start again. No, no, thank you. Fill in the hole. We're building right back up again. No, thank you. So, I mean, keep eyes up to the sky, 6pm Eastern, just tell me, it's going to be a fascinating to see it fly by if indeed it does fly by. But we see it in the daylight because 6 o'clock it's not going to be dark. Oh, yeah. We'll see it. We should be able to see it. I mean, those things are pretty bright. Yeah. They're moving pretty fast through space. And they were at one story I said, say they believe that it goes around the sun and goes around every three and a half years or whatever. But I don't remember this. Not that close. Yeah. And this is the first time I mean this. It was the one planetary site telescope in Arizona that spotted it. So, it was like, oh, hey, there's a. There it is. There's an asteroid there. Looks like it's, it's going to be pretty close to Earth. Maybe we should tell somebody. And they did. I mean, so, I mean, I know it's a big sky. Keep an eye on. All documentaries have told us that. But just, I hope they. Well, the documentary Armageddon told us that. That's exactly right. It's a really big sky. That's why they didn't see it back in your part. Mr. President, but it's a big ass sky. All right. That's quote. Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B.E.C.K. more coming up. Glenn Beck. Let me ask you something. How many different places do you have to go right now just to understand your business insurance? And I don't mean to buy it. I mean, to actually just understand it. Because for most people, business insurance is not one thing. It's a collection of things. Different policies, different documents, different people you have to call, depending on what the question is. And when you actually need a straight answer, you don't always get one. That's the part that doesn't make sense. And it can be really frustrating when you're trying to get it right. Well, this new company, I am a big fan of SuperShort. They just fixed this. It's one agency, one team working with you year round, not just when it's time to renew. So you can actually see how everything fits together instead of trying to piece it together for yourself. And they even built a tool called the fine print facts. They'll take all the legal language and translate it into real English. So you know exactly what you have, what it covers and what it doesn't. Because you should know. You should never have to guess when something is right, when it's this important. Go to supershort.com. That's super short. Super.com.

Stop with the men in girls competitions. I thought we were done with that. No, we're not. We're absolutely not. They just had a track meet. It was one of the state championships. Wow. The CIF Southern Section Finals. I love those. On Saturday, we're a boy, a male, one high jump, long jump, triple jump in the... Oh, an athlete. Yep. So then... But he won this under the girls heading. Yes. Yes. A.B. Hernandez won three competitions. So then the photos and video of the three podium ceremonies, one of which showed Hernandez and the top female finisher sharing the podium's top spot went viral on social media, prompting backlash against the CIF among politicians, including Tim Burchett, Nancy Mace, and plus Riley Gaines and Jennifer Sey. So Tim Burchett saw the photo and just wrote, I just threw up. Wow. Wow. What a hater. And then Nancy Mace, this is infuriating. Yes, he and the male with the female top finisher. But I mean, this male won the event, I don't know, triple jump or the long jump by almost two feet. You don't win by those kinds of margins normally. Right. And it probably doesn't say the story, but I like to know where it's going. Yeah, I would. I'd love to know. Riley Gaines said, if you have to create a shared podium for the boy competing in the girls event, you've already admitted you know he isn't a girl. Thank you. And that his participation is unfair. Well, they will just, look, we just to do that because he's, he's different. He's special. He's special. Yeah. And he's a very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very special. Yeah. He's special. I mean, if I'm the parents of these girls, how pissed would you be? Oh, you know, they work their whole lives to get to this point. I know. And then some male takes it from them. Do we pull them out? We just say that we're not doing it? I don't know. I don't know. Honestly, that's happened and hasn't helped. And they paid the price for it too. Yeah, yep. So then they just get shut out of all events at that point. Alright, Triple 8, 727, BECK, more coming up. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. Yeah! Featuring Patton Jeppe today, Triple 8, 727, BECK. I want to know, is it just me this weekend or... Or was President Trump doing things that I don't know we all loved and admired? He did some good things. He did some good things, yes. But he did some things that I wasn't exactly crazy about. We'll get into that. Coming up. You can learn a lot about a person by walking through their house. You see the height marks on the wall where they measured their kids growing up. The scratch on the floor from the time somebody dragged a Christmas tree stand through the living room. You know, the back patio where a hundred barbecues happen. A house is never just a house. That's why buying or selling one is a lot more emotional than people sometimes expect it to be. And it's also why the person helping you through that process matters so much. That's why Glenn started Real Estate Agents I Trust. He wanted to build a network of professionals who understand that they're not just moving property around on a spreadsheet. They're helping people through some of the biggest transitions of their lives. Because for most people out there, home is one of the most important words in the English language. So please check out realestateagentsitrust.com and they'll show you how to sell or buy a home. Even in a tough market. The name really says it all. That's realestateagentsitrust.com. Alright, President Trump had a busy weekend. He was talking about a lot of different things. One of them, Iran, and here's what he had to say about Iran. You like to talk about carts. It seems like they're playing with a bad deck to your point. But they're still playing. No, the only thing they have going is a fake press. They know how well we're doing militarily. And then at the request of a very nice group of people from Pakistan who are very close to Iran, I didn't go that final, they said, could you stop? We're going to make a deal. And we really had the confines of a deal. No nuclear. They're going to give us the dust, nuclear dust. Everything we want. And every time they make a deal, the next day it's like we didn't have that conversation. And that's taken place about five times. There's something wrong with them. Actually, they're crazy. And you know what? Because of that, they cannot have a nuclear weapon. The President is trying to agree with you on that. He agrees with me on that. He agrees with me that he wants to see it end. He'd like to see it end. He would like to help if he wants to help. That's great. But we don't need help. And you know the problem with help? When somebody helps you, they always want something on the other side. That's the way help works. That's probably true. Yeah, especially in his business. So I think it's time to stop warning them and time to start just following up on the action. He said the clock was ticking, right? Yeah, he did. That's what he put out this weekend. He said the clock is ticking. I don't know what the exact message was, but it meant that he was going to destroy them. Yes. Well, let's do that. Yeah, time is of the essence. I agree with that. Get moving fast. Or there won't be anything left of them. I mean, that wording is... Yeah, it's for a rant. The clock is ticking and they better get moving fast or there won't be anything left of them. Time is of the essence. That's what he said. I mean, let's do it. Put the hammer down. If that's true. Let's do it. Do it. Yeah. There was more, though. He talked about Iran's deal-making. They're afraid to make a deal. They don't know how to make a deal. They've never been put in this position before. So you're going to hold out until they do. Well, I'm going to do what's right. I have to do what's right. But the straight should be open, right? It should be open. Look, see, to stop the straight is very easy. All I have to do is say, we dropped a mine in the straight someplace. See, we're a little disadvantaged, but that's okay. The straight will be open. They will not have a nuclear weapon and the world will go on. And you will see gasoline prices drop. Energy prices generally drop like nobody. Don't forget. They have a lot of boats that are loaded up with oil that are going to bring the oil out as soon as this is over. And I think it's going to end fast. They've been holding up the world for many, many years with the straight. You know, they've used this many, many times. They said, we'll close the straight. They've closed it in the past. They use it as a weapon. They're not using it as a weapon with me. And what they did, and actually what President Xi said last night, sort of smiling about it, he said, well, they close the straight and then you close them. But you think they're going to capitulate sometimes? Yeah, I have no doubt. Okay, good. I hope it's very soon. Me too. And it would be nice if we didn't have to hit them again, but it kind of seems like we're going to. If that's all they understand is, you know, the power side. Yeah, then show it to them again. Let's do it. Because, you know, gas prices are through the roof. And that's making, you know, the everything else that's delivered. All the goods. By trucks that use gas go up in price. And a lot of items, you know, in the stores that we get other than the goods, but I mean the packaging and the plastic bags and everything, that's stuck. Yeah. We get that through shipping. And so let's wrap this thing up. Let's go. I mean, we were told it was four or five weeks. Then we were told, well, you know, as long as it takes, won't take long. It's not going to be as long. You question me about this? Yeah. We're not as long as as long as Vietnam. Not as long as Iraq. Not as long as a hundred year war. Okay. So. It is not that. Compared to the hundred year war. This is like a blink of an eye. Yes, nothing. All right. Well, you're right. You're 100% right. And I apologize for even thinking about it. Thank you. You know, thinking about questioning you on this. Right. Okay. Then don't. How about that? Let's, and he, you know, he's said in the past that he thinks that they, the mind thing is kind of BS. Yeah. One mind and then I got to shut everything down and he said in the past, he doesn't even think there are any. So, okay, well, then let's. Then we heard last week, was it from Pete Hague Seth, I think, who said we've destroyed 90% of the minds that were in the straight. Remember that? Yeah. That was either Hezeth or a Sankam guy. Yeah. It's one of them that said we just, we've destroyed mine. So there must have been some and now we've destroyed them and now we know there's 10% left. Let's destroy them too. If we know there's 10% more, we must know where they are because we've seen them. Destroy them. Right. So, I don't know. And how much, I don't think there was ever a number, right? We don't know if there was 10 and we've blown up nine. Yeah. Whatever. Don't know. Don't know. But he also talked about China and Taiwan. I'm not looking to have somebody go independent and, you know, we're supposed to travel 9,500 miles to fight a war. I'm not looking for that. I want them to cool down. I want China to cool down. So you're waiting on approving billions of dollars of weapons for Taiwan. That's right. Is that moving forward? Well, I haven't approved it yet. We're going to see what happens. What are you looking for? I may do it. I may not do it. Yeah. What's your hinge point? Well, I'm not going to say that, but I may do it. I may not do it. But we're not looking to have wars and we're, if you kept it the way it is, I think China's going to be okay with that. But we're not looking to have somebody say, let's go independent because the United States is backing us. Okay. There's Taiwan discussed. I don't fully understand the Taiwan situation because our official US policy is one China, is the one China policy. Yeah, but we don't mean that when we talk to Taiwan. I guess not. Taiwan can't. I guess not. But we're saying that, but not really. Not when you're, not really. But what does that mean if China attacks Taiwan? Then we don't have, because we don't have any treaty with them. That means if you're attacked, we come to your rescue militarily. We have a lot of troops there. And we have, you know, I think we'll provide them weapons, but I don't think we get involved militarily necessarily. So, for sure, Trump doesn't want to do that. He doesn't want to do that. I don't want to do that. Does anybody want to do that? Go to war with China over Taiwan? Taiwan doesn't want to do that, right? No, I don't think anybody wants that. Then the other issue though with Taiwan or with China is something that affects us here in America a little bit more than the rest. Here he is talking about the Chinese students coming to America. I could tell them I don't want any students is a very insulting thing to say to a country. They would then immediately go out and start building universities all over China. But if you don't have those students, good students, by the way, if you don't, and we do another thing, you know, if they're good and they want to stay in America, we won't give them a green card and things like that. You know, and that's not only them, but other countries. But if you want to see a university system die, take a half a million people out of it. All right, positive result. And you know that. So the president seems to be saying there that without Chinese students, American universities collapse and go out of existence. Sorry, I don't, I don't believe that. I find that hard to believe. I think it's impossible to believe. There's no way that's true. There may be some universities that go out of business and boy, what a shame that would be. I mean, based on what American universities are teaching our kids, the propagandists that they are now, I'm not sure that would be a bad thing. We can't, we can't have that. Wow. But oh well. You think, okay, there's, there's 6,000 American universities. Right. If 500,000 people go away and aren't part of those universities anymore, that's an average of, and it's not going to work out this way, but it's 83 students per university. Okay. Oh well. And they're not evenly distributed like that. There's probably more at Harvard, more at Yale, but I'm sorry, if Harvard loses a thousand students, they've got a $53 billion, uh, War Chest. War Chest, that a fund that can fund them forever. So they're not going out of business. They're not going out of business. University of Texas has $50 billion in, in their fund. I mean, these, these universities have fortunes. They've got gold buried underneath their, their main buildings. That's what they built the universities on. Texas absolutely does. Yeah. Yeah. Literally has gold. So, uh, they're not going out of business if a few students leave. And even if they did, again, so what? Yeah. Isn't the, isn't the opportunity for them to spy and send information back to China worse than what would happen if they all go back home? Right. And I realized, you know, he thinks it would be an insult. Well. Oh well. So? I don't mean it to be an insult, but we've. I'm insulted by the spying that's going on from the Chinese. And he addresses that a little bit later in this clip. Yeah. Let's, um, let's see the rest of this. The ones that won't be heard at the top schools, the top schools will do fine, but you're lower schools, you're lower, uh, the ones that don't do quite as well. Those two, they'll be dying all over the place. I believe that. I frankly think that it's good that people come from other countries and they learn our culture and many of them want to stay here. I think it's good. Um, not everybody agrees with me. And it doesn't sound like a very conservative. Nobody agrees with you. It's not. I'm a conservative, I'm a conservative guy. I'm really a common sense guy, I think more than a conservative guy. Yeah, I think you are. I think MAGA is common sense, you know. Uh, people understand we want strong borders, we want strong military, we want good education, we want low interest rates, we want, but, but I think people would argue they worry about, do they have nefarious interests? Sure, I know. And we worry about that. And honestly, you know, they do things to us and we do things to them. It's, it's, um, it's a very, very fine line. The whole thing was students. No, it's really not. So they have 500,000 students and our university system does great. You know, it does great. You want to screw it up, take a half a million students, huh? And you're going to, you're going to see bankruptcies at the lower end of good colleges, but they're not known or whatever. You're going to have a lot of problems. So it's something I'm always looking at. Push back, push back. It's a very insulting thing to tell a country. Oh my gosh. We don't want your people in our schools. I mean, it really is. Now I have people who say, oh, that's a terrible thing. You know. It is a very insulting thing. So even if it is so very interesting, it's something didn't come up today. Came up last time, came up last time, but I will tell you that school systems don't want that to happen because you won't have much of a school system. Wow. I don't, I don't know. That's amazing to that. Amazing. He's going to have to convince me more. I don't, I don't think he could because I mean, I mean, they spy on us. We spy on them. No. I mean, how many Americans are in Chinese universities right now spying on China? Half a million. Is that a number right or wrong? I think it's wrong. Okay. Yeah. I think it's wrong. Okay. I would guess about five rather than 500,000. Maybe five. So. I don't know. We should look into that. How many American students? I think we did it one time, didn't we? I think our in Chinese universities. It was shockingly low. A couple hundred or something. It was 250 or something. Seems right. That sounds right. But they're not, you know, that you think they'd be, have any problem at all with saying that Americans can't enter Chinese universities. No, they wouldn't have any problem at all with that. No. And the insult, so. And oh well. I mean, I know you got a good, a good sort of relationship with Xi Jinping. And that's fine. But if he can't take it that, you know, it's 500, half a million Chinese students can't flood into our universities. Oh well. Yeah. And listen, oh well. And I want to apologize. Because there we have more opportunities to spy on China now. Oh, okay. We're up to 800. 800. All right. So we have. Approximately. Approximately 800 to their 500,000. Okay. That's a, that discrepancy is a little, a little much. A little much. Yeah. A little much. It's a lot much. Maybe it's just us. I don't know if everybody's okay with Chinese students flooding into our American university. And I'm sorry, I don't believe that universities would fail. No, I don't either. I don't. And if they do. Not for a second. I mean, I'm kind of okay with it. We could use the, we could use the buildings and the property for other purposes. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Triple eight, seven to seven, B-E-C-K. More coming up in one minute. Fortune favors the bold. That phrase describes something important about the American spirit. Unfortunately, there's another group of people who live by that same philosophy, criminals, because it takes certain kind of boldness to walk up to somebody else's house and decide you have a right to what's inside it. And these days, there are plenty of people out there who would love nothing more than to break into your home, steal your property and turn your life upside down. That's why your home needs a real protection. And that's why I want you to look at Simply Safe.

He kind of doubled down on what he already said about the economy. Here he is on the economy. Numbers are, you can imagine Democrats and political pundits. The people get it. Jumped all over this statement that you made the other day. You were asked when you were leaving. What extent are American financial situations motivating you to take a deal? Not even a little bit. The only thing that matters is that I'm talking about Iran. They can't have a nuclear weapon. I don't think about American financial situation. I don't think about any, but I think about one thing. You cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That's right, that's a perfect statement. I'll make it again. Imagine how many people stop the soundbite at, I don't think about Americans financial situation. So what's your response to that framework? It's very simple. When people hear me say it, everybody agrees. Short-term pain, it's going to be short-term pain. But the pain is much less than people thought. Is it though? Is it much less than you thought? I'd like to note, 727, BECK. Is it much less than you thought it would be? The pain here? Did you think gas prices would be higher than this? Do I need to call in? Because I would say, no, it's not less than you thought it would be. The gasoline prices are higher than I expected. The food prices are higher than I expected. Wow. And there are a number of things at all costs, as a matter of fact. Lower, higher. Higher than you thought they would be. Alright. Maybe it's just something maybe worthy of the only ones that thought it would be less than this. It's possible. 727, BECK. 888-727, BECK. Pat and Jeffy for Glenn Today. When we talk about Israel, we're not just talking about a place. We're talking about people connected to a promise. A promise made by God, the one He has never broken. And one that continues even today. Because God's character doesn't change. And what He begins, He sustains. What He promises, He fulfills. And that matters. Right now in Israel, families run into shelters as sirens sound. It's not just a crisis. It's a call to respond for Christians. For Christians, caring for the Jewish people isn't rooted in politics. It's not rooted in war or anything else. It's rooted in trust. Trust in a God who keeps His word. So we don't stay distant. We step in with prayer and practical help. The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground, bringing food, caring for the vulnerable, and reminding people they're not alone. This is what it looks like to align our hearts with God's. To pray, to show up, to care, to feed. Join us in praying for the peace of Jerusalem and for the people who need it most right now.

Alright, it's Pat and Jeffy for Glen this week. He had the big thing in London over the weekend. We played his speech in the first hour. I think it went pretty well. I think so too. There were a lot of people at the United Kingdom thing. Whole bunch of people. I don't know how many. They estimated 110,000. It was way over that, I think. I think it was 10 times that. I think it was somewhere between, what did you say, 800 and more than a half million? 800 and a half, yeah. It certainly looked like that. Sounds about right. I mean, I didn't count every head. You didn't count every head? Looking at the video. I was just kind of estimating. You should have. You should have. Well. But I guess we can't count on you to count people. So they were expecting 3 million. I don't know if they got that. I don't know about that. But they had a lot of people. Whole bunch of people. Yeah. And it's certainly, if I were a leader of a country who has done nothing but be smart to these people. Yeah. Oh yeah. I would. I'd be a little concerned. I would be as well. And that's why they're trying to minimize the turnout. Yes. By saying, I was anywhere from 60,000 to 110. Right wing lunatics. And it was less than last year. No. I don't think so. I don't know about that. I don't think so. Not that I paid that close attention to it last year. So that's still a whole bunch of people. It's a lot of people that are unhappy with you. Yeah. Yep. You're ruining their country. And they're showing up. Yeah. In large numbers. And you know, it's not, for some people it's not going to end well. And they just lost an election. The, you know, the Starmer's party just lost the election. So yeah. Get out. People are pissed. People are pissed. All right. Triple eight, seven to seven, BECK. Let's go to Joshua in North Carolina. Hey, Joshua, you're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Jeff. Hey there gentlemen. You asked the question about how we feel about, oh, well, you know, the temporary pain from the war. Oh yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no. I voted for Trump three times now. I did not vote for inflation and higher gas prices. I'm paying like $4 and a 20 cents a gallon. Yeah. And here's the thing. Yeah. If that was it, if that was it, maybe, but here, no Epstein client arrest, no political insider trading arrest, no Russia collusion arrest, no Doge fraud discovery arrest. Right. I literally found serious. They're doing something about that. Pardon? The Nick Shirley stuff. I mean, that is. They're trying to do something there. At least put JD Vance on that. So, you know, maybe somewhere down the line, we get some satisfaction on that. I don't know the work, you know, I'd like to see some arrests. You're right on that. Yeah. That fraud needs to be, it needs to be brought to the law. But I think JD's on that. Right. I mean, I'm, uh, yeah, but this weekend that he's on it. But I mean, you make good points. Look at the Doge fraud. Yeah. Nothing. Yeah. I know. Something was going to happen. They would have done it with Doge. So I am done with Trump. I am done. Yeah. He had his time. He dropped the ball. He started a new war and he raised my prices for everything. Yeah. That's done. Who do you like for a 28? Man, I'm thinking, well, definitely not JD Vance. I don't trust him. Um, Really? I'm really thinking Ron DeSantis. I mean, it's, I like the way you're thinking. I've been thinking Ron DeSantis for a long time. Yeah. He's Marco Rubio. Yes. But I prefer Ron DeSantis. He's, he's got a track record. I have family in Florida and what I've seen from Ron DeSantis is exactly what we need for the rest of the United States. Thanks Joshua. Appreciate it. Um, yeah, people are feeling the pain. Absolutely. You know, I mean, Here's a little reminder about some of the things that Doge discovered. Americans have been funding the following. 5.5 million to LGBTQ advocacy in Uganda. Oh, 800,000 for transgender people, sex workers and their clients in Nepal. 3.6 for LGBTQ activism, free training and pastry cooking, Pace, psychological, Psycho social counseling, Social cafe and the dance focus groups for male prostitutes and Haiti. And 1.1 million produced gender transformation in diverse social and behavior change report, which advocates again, Quote again, Gender blindness, Blinding us. Okay. All right. So, I mean, you don't want to pay for those things. No, you don't. It's a matter of, We all are dealing with the higher prices for everything. Right. And we just, we just have to, you have to do it. You have to deal with it. I'm, I'm, I'm not crazy about it, but I've found a way to, to pay for the gas back and forth to work, to pay for food for my family is I treat it just like the government treats it either, you don't need to budget. You just, What a great way to go. So you just don't have a budget. That way you don't have to follow one. I have to follow one. And so that's really, That is brilliant. It just works out. Yeah. I mean, You just make it work. Right. You just keep buying stuff on credit. That's what the government does. And they've taught us that really well. I mean, it's not all on credit. No. Okay. Well, good. Right. So what the government does isn't on credit. Thank you. And we're only 39 trillion in debt. We need to let that go. That's what President Trump. I know. You need to go back to zero on that. Yeah. So people stop complaining about it. Well, what we can do is wait until we start printing so much money that, you know, it takes 40 trillion dollars to buy a loaf of bread. And then we take that 40 trillion and we pay off the debt. We pay off the Chinese and everybody else we owe money to. Yeah. We pay off the debt. Forget about the debtors. Great. So, yeah, but we just give them funny money and everything's fine. That's good. That's what we'll do. That's good. Let's go to Greg in Minnesota. Greg, welcome. Yeah. So you guys were asking about the, the gas prices being higher and they're certainly higher than I expected. Yeah. Lasting longer than I expected, but... Me too. You know, Iran's always going to be a threat. So if we can neutralize some of that now, great. Let's, let's get it done. I don't disagree with that either. I don't either. But yeah, it's, it's very difficult though for, for people who are, you know, struggling to pay bills anyway. And now you've got $4 and $5 a gallon. And it's difficult for me as a... Thanks, Greg. So, you know, a guy who doesn't budget anything is just, you know, trying to get through here in America. It's difficult for me to understand how a country that I'm told has more oil than the rest of the places around the country. And I'm told that most of that oil over there that's sitting on Carg Island that's just overflowing goes to China and Europe. How that affects me having to pay $4 a gallon for gas. Yeah. Or more. It shouldn't. And yet it does. And I haven't figured that one out yet. Yeah. If we're self-sustaining oil-wise, then it shouldn't affect us. Correct. Right? I haven't figured that one quite out yet. So... Yeah, that's a hard one. That's a, that's a tough one. Yeah, so... Daniel in North Carolina. Welcome. All these points are valid. If the true priority, however, is keeping Iran from having a nuclear weapon, then we should still focus on that as the true priority. And one would hope that the rest of the free world could, could all agree upon that and find a way to stop that from being such a threat. Because if they had developed a nuclear weapon from the information that we're getting, you know, we're all overloaded with that. But from the information that we're getting, it appears that Iran would probably use that to decimate thousands, possibly millions of people. And then that would, that would make things a lot more turbulent than they are right now in 2026. It's very true. From the information that we're being given. Very true. Yep. Yeah. No, I think you're right. Appreciate it, Daniel. Thank you. And because of the, you know, some of the distrust of, of Trump, you know, we have to, there's plenty, there's plenty of countries that we thought were our friends that have kind of showed their true colors to us. Yeah. Germany, France, Great Britain, all of them. Yeah. All of them. All of our NATO allies have pretty much shown where they really are, which is interesting. And I, and I really think it's true. If Iran had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it. I think they would have used it already on, on Israel. Yeah. No question. They've got no, they've got no problem in dropping a nuke on it, Israel. Because they, they want to destroy Israel. They don't believe they should exist. Right. Yeah. So that would be. They have absolutely no qualms about doing that. Could it reach us? I don't know. Probably not right away, but they will eventually develop a. Do we have, do we have Jews living in this country? I think we do. Yeah. So that's an issue. Yeah. Sure is. And they consider us the great Satan. They've made that pretty clear over the years. Right. So, yeah. It is unacceptable. Right. For Iran to have a nuclear weapon. And it should have been handled long before this. President Trump is right about that. And he's right about that. Absolutely. It's been pushed down. It's been kicked down the street over and over and over. And so he picked it up. He said, enough is enough. And so I, I mean, I got, got to believe that's, that's good. Now let's do it. But let's not wait. I don't, I don't think I would venture to say, I don't know if there's a poll. There may be, but are Americans, uh, for or against just crushing? Finishing this thing? Yes. I, I don't know if there's been a poll on that, but I would guess they're for finishing the job. Right. Yeah. Now that we're there, we have to finish the job. You can't just leave it undone because that'll be worse than what everybody else did. Yeah. Exactly. And you remember how Obama handled this? He'd left him piles of cash on the tarmac. What was it? Almost $2 billion here. And will you stop now? No, no, no, we will. Thanks for the two billion. If somebody gives me two billion, I'll stop whatever they want me to stop. I think I'm clear about that. Me too. Uh, I'd be okay with that. Uh, so, but nobody's offering. No, no, I'm willing to, you know what? I'm willing to negotiate it down to a billion, just one billion and I'll stop whatever you want me to stop. All right. Triple eight, seven, two, seven. Be easy, okay? More coming up. Doesn't matter if you drive a truck or a Tesla. Raising good kids takes the same kind of love. More Glenn Beck. Next. Personal safety is about so much more than just protection.

Because President Trump believes you're not. He believed that there would be, that you knew there's going to be some short term pain. Right. Right. And it's not as bad as you thought it would be. Is that accurate? Yeah. And how long are you okay with putting up with it? Right. $4 and $5 a gallon gas. In California in some places, it's over $6 a gallon. Right. Which is really painful. I mean, when I'm feeling good about pumping $3.78 a gallon into my car, that's a problem. When it was in the low twos in Texas, not that, what, three weeks ago? Not very long. A few weeks ago, it was two, I don't know. It was two. It was 30, 220. Well, yeah, it was that. But it was, it was gradually, it was getting down to two. Yeah, it was. We were close. I mean, we were close to that. Now it's about four. It's close to four. Yeah. Some places over. Yeah. Gia in Virginia. Welcome. Hi. Hi. Hi. All right. First, the gems are actually taxing up a lot of stuff too. So that's adding to it. No question. Yeah. Okay. Thank you. And I guess that's what you had to say. That's the entirety of it right there. So put that in your pipe and smoke it. And all right. Oh, she does have more. She's still there. All right. Go ahead. Yeah, I just wanted to start with that. But yeah, not happy about the gas, but I did, you know, post. Basically, I went up with the money part for now because if we delay anything and wait until later, it'll be worse. No, that's right. Absolutely. It's absolutely correct. And I, and as far as the people coming in, the Chinese people, I mean, there is totally no balance on that. 800 to 500,000. That's crazy. Plus we all, we already voted for him and I do love Trump, but we already voted for him to be poor. So we don't really need to be bringing more people in when we need to be flipping them out. Thank you. Exactly right. Thanks. You appreciate it. 100% right. Yeah. I mean, I think I've all about that. That zero immigration. Stop it all. Every single person, every human that wants to come into the United States. Stop them. I'm there on illegal immigration. Stop all illegal immigration. I'm still okay with legal immigration. Yeah, that's great. But you're not even there. That's cute. No, shut it down. Okay. All right. We need to shut it down so that none of it can be called racist, xenophobic. Stop it all. You can't come here from Norway is what you're saying. Man, we want you here. But we can't. Sorry. We're trying to fix our country. We're closed for a while. Now, how long do you envision that lasting? I think it takes 40 years. 40 years. I think it takes 40 years. Oh, wow. For it to all equal out. So we can't clean that up in a year or two. It's got to be a 40-year process. All right, 50. All right. And then Norway come back to us. Come back to us. Yeah. Yeah. Everywhere else to or just Norway? No, everywhere else. But you brought up, you said, people musically mentioned Norway. Yeah, no, everyone. Yeah. All right. That's all for today. Thanks for watching. I'll see you next time. Bye. Bye. Yeah. Well, you've Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher for Glenn this week. We're going to be talking about the president. We're going to be talking about the president. He's coming up. Now ask dad what he wants for Father's Day and he'll save. I don't know. I'm fine. He will. That's a quote. I know I will. That's a quote. Meanwhile, this man has spent the last 20 years preparing for hypothetical situations that have never actually occurred. He's got flashlights in strategic locations, extra batteries, a toolbox that could repair a small submarine. He knows three different ways to shut off the water to the house. And he treats bad weather like it's a personal challenge from God because that's what dads do. They want to feel prepared, which is why I think rapid radios are actually a great Father's Day gift. They're simple, practical, and genuinely useful. You don't need a license. You don't need to program anything. And there are no monthly fees. Just turn them on and start talking. And whether it's for travel, camping, road trips, family events, or real emergencies, they're the kind of thing a dad immediately understands the value of because deep down most dads are always thinking the same thing. If something goes wrong, I want to be ready. So go to rapidradios.com. They ship fast from their headquarters in Michigan. That's rapidradios.com. Rapid radios. Communication redefined. So in addition to the other things that the president said about the economy and Iran, he also over the weekend went after Lauren Boebert because she had the nerve, the unmitigated gall to go to Kentucky and campaign for Thomas Massey. How dare she? How dare she? So the president called her a weak-minded stooge. Wow. We're doing that. And it would be an honor to pull his endorsement from her. Wow. If he can find somebody else, apparently that's what he's going to do. I mean, she, I know she fought back a little bit with, she said, I've endorsed Thomas Massey and I've endorsed Donald Trump both. You can do both. Yes. And that's not good enough. No. For Donald Trump. No, because Thomas Massey is now public enemy number one. Well, that's for sure. For the president. And I wish it wasn't like that, but it is right now. And it's all over the bill? Is that what we believe? It's all over the bill. Yeah. He said, here's a quote from the president, bad Congressman Thomas Massey, voted against tax cuts, the border wall or military and law enforcement. That's the big, beautiful bill. That's exactly what that is. He didn't vote against tax cuts or the border wall or military and law enforcement, but those things were included in the bill, which he couldn't vote for because it was too much debt. He called him the worst Republican Congressman in history. Kentucky vote the bum out on Tuesday. We can't live with this troublemaker for another two years. He's a true negative force. Wow. I disagree. Yeah. I do too. Thomas Massey is fiscally conservative. He's conservative socially as well. And I guess he's got some issues now. I don't know what's true in that situation with this former girlfriend or whatever. Yeah. All I've heard, from what I've heard, it's being looked at as like a big issue, but it really wasn't. It wasn't anything to do really with him. No. Very little. Yeah. So that's a complicated mess. Anyway, yeah. But Thomas Massey's a conservative, right? And President Trump just said he doesn't consider himself a conservative. Right. He's said that multiple times that he is not a conservative. Common sense. He's a common sense guy. Common sense. Mm-hmm. So, and you know, debt is not a big deal to him. He's a businessman. He's had debt. I know how it feels. He's been in debt. Yeah. I know how it feels. He doesn't care about debt. Right? And that's why I changed my mind on it because of President Trump. Okay. Yeah. He doesn't care. Don't have a budget then. Don't have a budget. If you don't have a budget, then you don't have any spending limits. Thank you. That's the beauty of it. He... So you just keep buying things. And the thing that really bumps me out the most on my plan about not having a budget and just, you know, just spending what you have is that I can't print more. Right. So I've got to find a way to be able to print more. That's the difference between you and the federal government. Yeah. It would be nice if you just had a printing machine in your... In your backyard. Oh, it'd be so sweet. Oh, it would be great. Here, here's more money. Look at this. I came up with more money. Right. Right. It'd be nice. Do you need something? No problem. Most of us don't have that though. The federal government has that. I know. We do not. So... That's kind of the problem with my plan actually. Kind of, yeah. It's a problematic plan, but don't worry about it today. Kick it down the street and do it tomorrow. I am. Next week or something. Thank you. That's what I'm doing. Good. I'm pretty sure that'll work out, you know, somehow in the end. Meanwhile, what are your thoughts on it? And I mean, is it like you expected or is it less than you expected or is it more? Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K. Let's go to Brian in Florida. Hey, Brian. Welcome to the Glendback Program with Pat and Jeff. Hey, guys. Pat and Jeff, you guys are funny, man. Thanks for keeping the humor going and keeping us upbeat during this. I actually, I stand with President Trump. I think what he's doing, he's exposed so much fraud and waste. And I agree with a lot of the points everybody's made and what you guys have made. I also wish I had my own print, no budget where I can spend my own money. I'm using the monopoly money. Yeah, yeah. But anyway, he's exposed so much corruption, fraud, illegal immigration. Yeah, he has. And I believe he's on doing decades of things and we as Americans have been fat and lazy and entitled of we want a satisfaction of things now. And we have to go through, it's like we're working out. We've been out of shape for so long. We are definitely going through the short term pains. I mean, I have to make decisions every month. It's time, you know, I'm not a big materialistic guy, but you know, you, we have to make sacrifices in order to get to the long term game. And I really believe we're going to have such a reward in the end. And it's duty of the people to hold this government accountable. We need to start holding our Congress and Senate. They haven't done yet. We'll just say they haven't done anything. That's for sure. That's true. And then why isn't any, and now I'm using quotes with journalists. How come no journalist has actually asked President Trump about what we got out of Maduro when we captured him? Because he, I bet you Maduro knows a lot of the corruption that's going on. And we can start arresting people as well. I just, I just really believe we got to, we got to hang in there. Yes. It's about what I expected. The last four years was really high. I think we were kind of going through like a recession during the fake presidency of four years, during the last four years. And, you know, prices are about the same and he's really got to undo it. And then we've had the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 when they, that's been part of the corruption. We took ourselves off the gold standard. So really he's, he takes time of getting rid of undoing decades and decades and decades of fraud, corruption and waste. And we just all have to unite together. I think we need to bring back manufacturing, bring back community farms where we all start bartering with each other and really, really rely on community and then get back to that. And knowing your neighbors, loving your neighbors. You guys talked about that earlier. You know, the biblical principles, I feel like we're going through a spiritual cleansing and we need to really, and we need to really get back to God and really trust in God's plan. Amen. God won, God won already. And now I'm not comparing President Trump, never will compare him to Jesus, but I trust in President Trump's plan as well. And I don't like to trust in man. I trust in God like that. And I want to give a shout out to Glenn Beck, man. Great job of what you've been doing. He's what he's been preaching and doing and standing tall. He's putting his money where his mouth is, where most people don't do that. We look at our federal government. They put our money where their mouth is, but they never do any action that is for the people. So I just want to congratulate him and thank him for what he's doing. And I pray a full armor God over him continually and you guys. And that's just where I kind of think that's why we're really dealing with what we're dealing with. And this is the short term pain of going through the long term reward of what we're going to get in the end. Nicely put. Amen. Thanks, Brian. Appreciate it. Can't disagree with any of that. I don't think you felt like you can't. That was well spoken. And you know, it's true. That's why this is so difficult right now. And I guess what bothered me the most is that the president seemed a little dismissive about the pain that people are going through right now. Yes. And this affects people, the lower income wage earners more than a lot of the rest of us. And so if you can't afford four and five and six dollar a gallon gas, what are you going to do right now? If you can't afford eggs and butter at the grocery store, what are you going to do? It's really tough right now. And so you got to tighten your belt somewhere. Most people don't have the government solution available to them, which is just don't have a budget. And it's don't worry about it. Kick it down the street until next week. Or the week after that or the next month. You know what? We'll get to it. We'll get to it sometime. We'll get to it. Something will happen where it all works out. That's what I was saying. Something's going to happen. I'm going to get a big check in the mail that's going to fix all this. That means we're up going to win a lot of it, right? That's the hope. That is the hope. Yep. That's the hope. Yep. And so when the lottery victory doesn't happen. That's good. Go into it. Bite your tongue. So, Triple 8 727 PECK Joel in Minnesota. Welcome. Hi. How you doing? Good. You guys asked earlier that you were saying you didn't understand, you know, why we're paying more. Yeah. We're paying more because we're living in the global economy. Should we be? Yeah. We shouldn't be. The excuse is our oil, we can't refine it. We have to use the dirty oil. The reality is our equipment can pump the clean oil that we have. They just can't make their profit. The profit comes from when they take the clean oil and sell it to other nations. And then they turn it on and buy cheaper dirty oil and refine it. And the kick-side to that one is there's, after all the refining is done, there's a layer of toxic waste left over. We're actually buying other countries toxic waste and storing it on our land. Isn't that lovely? That's great. That's a cool about profit. Yeah. And you know, there were tax laws, which I think that were given a little too much. I think the tax breaks they should have should be on the lines of refining our equipment. Work better with our oil. Although it can, the equipment we have can do the oil we have. They just don't want to do it because they lose profit. If they were doing it that way, we would be about $1.29 cheaper a gallon. Are you in the oil industry? No, I've just been researching it. Okay. All right. Well, that's a good summation of what's going on right now. Yes, it is. Yeah. I appreciate it. Thanks, Joel. I don't care. And you don't care. You know what I heard? An excuse to why I'm not paying $1.20 a gallon. Right. Yeah. Those excuses. Global economy. You will never pay $1.20 a gallon. We can't refind it here. We're buying toxic. I don't care. Just give me cheap oil. Thank you. What are we doing? Just go back to, I don't know, $2.50 a gallon. Is that unreasonable? I don't think so. $2.50 a gallon. That's where we put it. And that's where we... I mean, we seem to be happy there. Yeah. Everyone seemed to be happy between... Oil companies are making money. $2.50. We're doing okay. $2.50 a gallon. $2.50 a gallon. Perfect. Carl in North Carolina. Hi. Hi. Hi, Glenn and crew. Well, my wife one time saw some Dr. and Trump's first term, some 135, but that was at one store for one week. But yeah, I'd be content with $2.50. But the previous caller gave the best explanation I've heard, and I've not done a ton of research, but as to connecting the dots of why it is that when we have enough oil ourselves, why are we paying this much? But I did help elect President Trump all three times that he got elected. And I also am working in North Carolina with the team to help make about a baker's dozen of needed repairs to our election process as I tighten them up. But a bit earlier, Doge and Nick Shirley got referred to. And people use the term fraud. Well, you know, if someone with an accent calls you up and is trying to sell you something and then they don't really have the product or the service, then that's fraud. But when our servants or overpaid servants are stealing from their boss, the highest order, the highest governmental level, which is the people, it's embezzlement. And when they're stealing tens and hundreds of billions of dollars, that's a serious felony. And when they're taking bribes from foreign enemies, that's called treason, high treason. And that's the only crime that's mentioned in the Constitution. It's the worst crime there is because it inevitably results in many, many deaths and suffering and misery. So let's maybe upshift from fraud to embezzlement and treason and call what it really is. And let's do what the Constitution tells us three times and the people need to be doing the prosecuting because criminals don't tend to arrest themselves. I've noticed that too. Yeah, that is a weird phenomenon. Thanks, Carl. Appreciate it. You're never going to give it. I mean, it's going to be a while before we get to the treason. Yeah. We don't like to use that word anymore. No, we don't. And we certainly don't like to level the charge anymore. But like he says, in some cases, it's really appropriate. All right.888-727-BECK. More coming up in 60 seconds. How many people are walking around right now because somebody chose not to give up on them? Think about that for a second. Every person you've ever known, every friend, every spouse, every child, every great historical figure, every person who ever made it, made the world better in some way, all of them exist because at some point, somebody chose life. And yet, we live in a culture that often talks about pregnancy, like it's an interruption, a problem, a thing to deal with. Well, pre-born pushes back on that. They remind people that there's a human life involved, a child with a future, a personality, a name, a story that hasn't been written yet. Maybe somebody who will go on to cure cancer, who knows. But just $28 provides one free ultrasound. That's less than a dollar a day, and it could save a life. Or if you can afford it, $140 reaches five mothers. Pre-born empowers women to be mothers, and it's only the beginning because that moment leads to real support. Maternity care, baby clothes, diapers, counseling, and a lot more. And that's what we do together when we provide ultrasounds to get involved. First dial pound 250, say the keyword, baby. That's pound 250, keyword, baby, or go to pre-born.com slash beck.

I feel so flattered to be able to talk to these wonderful guys that I have been a big fan of for many, many, many, many years. Well, thank you. One that he first started out. I followed you guys forever. I met him at tri-state out here in Angola many years ago, and I had him. Talks about it often. Yeah, he's mentioned you many times, Jerry, many times. He did not. He's fine. All right, I don't know how you caught us, but you did. So what's up? What's up? Okay, what's up? I'm just so perturbed by the media, ABC, NBC, all of the fake news, how they're just talking about, oh, the price of gas has gone up another nickel today. Oh my God. Do they not remember the last administration and every time the Democrats are in there? Holy crap. What are we waiting for that? Very true. That is very true. And everything, come on, Pat and Jeffy, you guys know it is just a bunch of bunk. Yeah, that's for sure. Well, it's for sure that it's getting talked about a lot more now. Appreciate the call. Thanks, Jerry. And thanks for your kind words. It is being talked about every day, all day by the media, whereas under Biden, when it went up to five bucks a gallon, nobody even mentioned it. It was not a big deal to the media then. That much is very true. Very true. Yeah, absolutely. And look, we know, but it's just, it's the culmination of a lot of things that's happening in the world now, right? We don't want around to have news. We got it. But because of that, now we're all struggling and we're all struggling at the same time with the same things. Higher prices for everything across the board. And yet, you know, we get good news that the president, they've killed the ISIS leader over this weekend that we're not talking about. And I mean, less terror on the planet is good. That's a good thing. Yeah, it's a good thing. And yes, I'm happy that we took our armed forces along with the Nigerian armed forces and executed this guy. Good riddance. But it's just a culmination of everything that seems to be like, okay. And at the same time, we hear that we have to, we Trump, we haven't heard a lot of news about about the, uh, our ice on the streets, right? Getting rid of, uh, illegals, deporting illegals. Yeah, that's all that's gone away. We got a lot of bad news out of Minnesota. And then, you know, bad things happened. And so now we've kind of back a little bit. Mm hmm. Be quiet over here. And the thing was Trump's plan was working. Yes, it was going really well. And then the war with Iran. And so people are just saying, okay, can we wrap this up and get back to the good times? The good things that you were doing because please, we don't want to pay the Biden right Obama prices while Donald Trump's in office. Yes, I'm willing. Okay, I'll pay it for today. Yeah. But Jerry, what you said is definitely true. It is. I haven't been able to really argue with anybody. It's all true.责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责责 are not just annoying, they cause extensive water damage.

We're going to get to your thoughts at triple eight seven two seven BECK on President Trump, the economy, what's going on with Iran in just a second. But we got to share this news with you because it's pretty amazing. The climate hysteria. Had to drop their most hysterical predictions all of a sudden. Wait, what? We're not. OK, so the world is not going to end in 12 years, which we're down to. I don't know when. When did they start saying that like oh, 2015. Sure. 2012. And I mean, we're there and beyond in a lot of cases. But the latest on some international committee responsible for the official scenarios that guide climate modeling. Have changed their prediction, their projections. Yeah, those other outcomes weren't there. Now is plausible. Now they're not. No, you mean what we've said all along. Yeah, you know, the and surely they pointed that out in the article, right? Hey, thanks to all the climate change skeptics who have been doubting this hysteria all these years. What we're going to do is we're just going to adjust the framework of the modeling. And we won't say anything. We just we'll just change it. So great. You're just going to change the framework of the modeling. That's all. That one. We're just going to eliminate the most extreme scenarios that, by the way, have dominated climate research for decades now. Decades. I mean, it's an incredible development. It is. They were telling us the future is virtually over. We're done before it got here. Right. There's no point in living in. Look, some of some of those universities that we are going to fault because they can't get Chinese students away. There'll be students. Don't worry about it. They are the ones that had some of their students in hysteria. Yeah. Over climate, over the climate madness. This is the stuff that got people like, you know, What's Her Face? For some reason, I've drawn a complete blank on the 13 year old that's now like 45. Oh, yeah. What's Her Face? What's Her Face? Greta Van Thunberg. Greta Thunberg, who's been screaming and crying and weeping over climate change and can't get anybody to listen to her because it's so horrible. It's so horrible. I just want to tell you because that's what she was fed. Yes. In her formative years. And so that's what she firmly believes. And now they've backed off all that stuff. And I would answer. Good thing that, you know, President Trump posted this week in Good riddance after 15 years of Democrats promising that climate change is going to destroy the planet. United Nations top climate committee just admitted that its own projections were wrong, wrong, wrong. For too long, the climate activism has been used by Democrats to scare Americans, push horrible energy policies and fund billions into their bogus research programs. Unlike the Democrats who use climate alarmism nonsense to push their green new scam. My administration, this is President Trump now, will always be based on truth, science and fact. President Donald J. Trump. It's incredible because, all right, while that is the case now, that's the new reality. Anything you say is still ridiculous in your climate denier. Right. Right. Somehow everything they said is still accurate somehow. Believe everything else they've ever said, but not just not that. And while we adjusted, right, what was the we adjusted the framework? Yeah, the framework. We had the framework to make them because what we've been doing just not quite as plausible. It never was plausible. They won't tell you that, but it's not quite as plausible as they once thought it was. OK, so great. It's amazing. It sure is. Ross in Maine, welcome. Yes, thank you. Great to talk with you. You too. Gas prices in California. My sister and I have been paying five and six dollars in North Carolina. In Northern California, long before the Iran conflict. And we're close to seven. Yeah. And our electricity is double the national average in Maine with our governor that we have and her cronies and all that's going on. But, you know, I expected that we could possibly be paying more for gas because of the prior administration. The energy that we pipeline cut off and not going after our own national resources. And we're soft as a country. And I'm generalizing when I talk about people here. But, you know, a lot of these people, they voted this way. They want this country to fail for a long time. And I just feel that. Yeah. And this is just so many. And we're trying to correct what's been done in the past. You can't do it in a month anymore than you can stop a conflict. Let's say I'm going to go in an annihilate. Yeah. You know, yeah. And, you know, we just have to buckle down and get this taken care of. You know, a lot of people in this country have family and friends over there in this conflict that they don't want them there. But we also don't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon. You can't because you can't. But they get it. You're done. Exactly right. Thanks, Ross. I don't disagree with anything. No, I know. He's right. That's what makes it difficult. And yeah, I really think we need to finish the job we started. Absolutely. Iran. Otherwise, we're going to pay for that big time. But let's do it then. Let's do it and be done. And then we need to show our energy and our resources here in this country. Like he said, and, you know, that that's the thing. If you want lights on, you have to pay your power bill. And if you'd like water coming into your home, you have to pay that. And then if you want gasoline to travel, I don't know to work to be able to pay for that. All that, all of those things are tremendously, I was, oh yeah, hi. I mean, it's never ending. That's what it is. Hi. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, holy cow. I don't even want to know. That's why it stopped. I don't even want. I don't even look. I don't want it. I can't. I can't. If you, if you don't look, then it doesn't hurt you. No, I mean, Amen, brother. Amen. It's like nothing's really happening. Correct. You just don't even look at it. Correct. It's good safety. Thank you. Thanks for coming to mail. Don't open it. Don't look. Don't open it. I'm not sure that's the soundest financial advice, but yeah, if you don't open it, you didn't get it. Thank you. Thank you. And so you don't know that you owe anybody anything. Thank you for more financial advice. Email me at chewingthefatatheblaze.com. Now, past results don't necessarily indicate future earnings. No, no, it does not. Just know that. Always, yeah. Glenn in Ohio, welcome. Hello. Hello. Hey, Glenn. Oh, good. You, hey, fellas, what's going on? You are. Donald Trump is the chief executive of the United States of America. Indeed. He's telling us that he knew this was going to happen. He knew, we're going to go up. Why didn't he pass an executive order to, let's say, put a moratorium on federal taxes on fuel while this is going on? Why not just give Iran a deadline and when they get there, start bombing the crap out of them. I agree with that 100%. And I feel like we have given them a deadline and then we've let it walk. Thanks, Glenn. Both points are pretty legitimate. Yeah, I think that makes sense. It does. And it's been talked about, you know, you're still going to have the states and the local municipalities that tack on to your gas prices. So you'll still have the state. But if you got rid of the federal income tax or gasoline tax, the or the federal income tax, would you be even better? Frankly, why does he just get rid of that? Please. But if you got rid of the federal gas tax, what is that, 18 cents or something? Honestly, I don't know. And then every state has their own. But I, it would save you some money. Right. That's the thing. It would. And he is talking about that, but he just hasn't done it yet. There's been people that have talked about it, but it would be very helpful. I don't. Would it? Yeah, I think it'd be helpful. I mean, it's not going to hurt. It would certainly look good. Yeah. It would certainly look good. Yeah. And we could use that. Yeah. Adding into the midterms. Yeah, absolutely. Jennifer in Connecticut. Hi. Hi. So I wanted to say about the guy from North Carolina. I live in Connecticut. I voted for Trump three times. As you can imagine, there's a lot of liberals in the state. I don't know. Yeah. I just really want. Yeah. I love it here. If you can't tell. Now I'm trying to relocate to Tennessee. Me and my ex have been. Connecticut is beautiful. I would down there with my ex. Yeah. At least you would have another conservative vote down in Tennessee. But so I just wanted to let all the Republicans know that live in red states and purple states need a vote for every election. Are you going to end up like that? Sure. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, that's for sure. Thanks, Jennifer. I've lived in Connecticut on two separate occasions, early 90s. And then again, in the 2000. It was cheaper in 2009. Oh, so much cheaper. Yeah, so much cheaper. That's usually the way it works. And the politics is mind numbing in Connecticut, which is why I ignored it and tried to believe that we were in Texas at the time. That's what she's saying is the problem. Yeah. But, you know, what are you going to do? It's Connecticut. You've already given up. I've already given up. That's why we're here now because we're in Texas now and that makes more sense. Paula in Tennessee. Welcome. Yes. Tell Jennifer she's welcome here in Tennessee as long as she don't bring any politics. Okay. Yep. No, what I was listening to Jesse earlier here, I live in East Tennessee. Okay. And here our gas is 386 right now. Oh, so how lucky are you? Mm-hmm. Yeah. And, um, but I'm a retired teacher. I live on a fixed income. And, um, I know what it means to have to counterpenis. Yeah. Sometimes before my next paycheck, I'm living on quarters and dimes. Yeah. And it's very hard. Yeah. But I remember when this happened back with Carter years there in the oil embargo. Oh, yeah. And, you know, that was a hard time too. And I understood that when Trump did this, prices were going to go up and I understood that. And, um, but also when they did the military operation in Iran, they only finished 80% of the targets and then he stopped to make this deal. Right. And he first deal failed and then he waited calls to make another deal. Right. And then they didn't show up. Right. To me, that was an insult and the military operation should have started back. Absolutely. And, and pistol Pete's ready to go. He wants to make that happen bad. Yeah. I had something said. Thanks, Paula. Absolutely. Thank you. Uh, and I hope you don't have to account quarters very much longer. Me too. Uh, no kidding. But I mean, that's needed to happen. I'm not quite sure. I know Trump wants to make a deal. I got, I got that, but I'm not quite sure. And we don't want to hurt the people. You know, we're trying not to do civilian targets and they still claim we are. I know. I know. So we're still taking a beating over that. What were they saying? 22 schools have been hit last week. That was, that was, that was what, uh, Jill, yeah. And he was at the, uh, St. Com, uh, Cooper had a st. Com. Mm hmm. Of, uh, he's a good, I mean, I like them a lot, but he was saying like there's no credible. That's not true. There was no credible reports on that. Yeah. We hit the one school apparently. Whereas when you think back to that, uh, didn't, didn't they admit that that was an Iranian missile? I thought so. Yeah. Yeah. First, I thought so too. I thought that they get themselves. Now it's back to blaming us again. Yeah. Yeah. Weird. It's weird. Triple eight, seven, two, seven. Back more coming up. Big tech wants clicks. We want connection. There's a big difference. Glenn Beck will be back after this. For 250 years, Americans have believed in one powerful idea.

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn this week. Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K. Let's go to James in New Mexico. Hey, James, welcome. Is that me? Yep, that's you. Well, I'll be darned. Yeah, James. How about that? I suspect that if we just took a whole bunch of pigs and took them over to Iran and started bombing them with pigs. How'd it do it? It would. We'd do it. I mean, yeah, because they don't like pigs. They don't like pigs. They don't like pork. Thanks, James. Yeah, but there's a couple things with that. I have a problem with that. Then our pork prices go up. Oh, that's right. So what we need to do is then, you know, Trump didn't want to have China help because when, you know, he's afraid that when they help us, they're going to want something in return. But China has those, I'm told, to videos that, come out of the country, that they have those giant buildings, that they have hog farms, right? Yeah. Yeah. Let them help us. Loan on some pigs that we can drop on Iran. All right. Yeah. There you go. It just seems, you know, that's too insensitive. I think that's why we won't do that. It's too insensitive. So just a tactical nuke then and we're good? Yeah, no, that's okay. Okay. But not the pig. Oh, okay. You can't bomb over pigs. That's unacceptable. A nuke? I mean, That's not against the religion. No, it isn't. So, I mean, you know, if you think Pita gets upset. Oh man, just talking about bombing Iran with pigs sets Pita off. My man, my man, West Burdett from Pita was already typing me the email. I couldn't feel it. I couldn't feel it. Absolutely. He is. Because they don't appreciate that. No, they do not. Don't even joke about that. That's right. That's not funny. You know, how about the guy that got in trouble in Hawaii, because he threw a rock at a seal. Right. A Hawaiian fish seal. What was it? A Hawaiian monk. A Hawaiian monk seal. Yeah. The guy didn't hit him. It just scared him. So somebody beat him in the face for doing that. He's been charged. So violence against a human is okay. But don't you dare throw a rock at a seal. That's unacceptable, my friends. All right. We'll be back again tomorrow. I'll see you then.
