Summary

Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher fill in for Glenn Beck, covering the Luigi Mangione murder trial, Los Angeles mayoral race with Spencer Pratt's unconventional campaign, Iran military tensions, and criticism of Democratic leadership failures in major cities.

Insights
  • Class warfare messaging from progressive politicians is creating dangerous hero-worship of violent criminals among certain demographics
  • Unconventional political candidates using AI-generated content and direct confrontation of media narratives are gaining traction in major races
  • Fiscal conservatism in Congress is becoming an endangered species, with party leadership actively targeting conservative hardliners
  • Major city governance failures (homelessness, crime, safety) are creating political vulnerability for incumbent Democratic mayors
  • Strategic military posturing without follow-through (Iran threats) undermines credibility with adversaries and allies
Trends
Rise of non-traditional political candidates leveraging social media and AI content creation over traditional campaign infrastructureIncreasing polarization within Republican Party between establishment and fiscal conservative wingsDemocratic urban governance crisis becoming central election issue across multiple major citiesWeaponization of class resentment in progressive political messaging creating social instabilityErosion of institutional credibility in military/intelligence community regarding threat assessment and follow-throughGrowing public opposition to data center expansion despite state-level support driven by economic incentivesSelective media coverage and athlete promotion based on ideological alignment rather than merit/popularity

! The Fusion of Entertainment, Enlightenment and Empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. With Pat and Jeff, you this week for Glenn, Triple 8, 727, BECK's phone number. Apparently we're scheduled to attack Iran today. That's been delayed again. So if you're counting on that, you probably shouldn't. I guess it's not gonna, it's not on. It's not on like Don Quixote. As of right now. As of right now. But we'll see. As of right now. We'll get into that. You never know. And much more to talk about in 60 seconds here. Ask Dad what he wants for Father's Day and he'll say, I don't know. I'm fine. Meanwhile, here's the guy that has spent the last 20 years preparing for hypothetical situations that have never actually occurred. 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, they're practical and genuinely useful. You don't need a license. You don't need to have you program anything. And there are no monthly fees. You 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. All right. So we found out, I guess because of this was a truth social post, maybe from President Trump. Oh yes, where he's saying he's going to hold off the bombing, which was scheduled. Yeah. And we didn't know, obviously it was scheduled for today. Correct. But it was. Until this. Until now. And but he was asked by the Emir of Qatar, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia and the President of the UAE to hold off unplanned military attacks on Iran, which were scheduled. I think I would have said, no, I'm not holding off. We've done that over and over and over again. It's not working. You keep telling me that you're close to a deal. No. But that's not what he said. No, he said the great leaders and allies deal will be made and that will be very acceptable to the United States of America, as well as all countries in the Middle East and beyond. Will it? And do the Iranians know that? I don't think so. That's the thing. Are they involved in this? Are they the ones saying, hey, we can come to a deal. We can get under. We can make an arrangement here with you guys. Doesn't say that. Doesn't say that. That's kind of the problem, isn't it? Yeah. But he instructed Secretary of War Pete Headseth and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Daniel Kane, to stand down and we're not doing the attack. But I'll be prepared to go forward full scale at a moment's notice. So there's that. There's that. But that's what we've been hearing all the time now. Yes, it is. We're ready to go. We're going to bomb you. We're going to destroy you. We'll be obliterating you soon. You're going to be eliminated and then nothing. And I think they've gotten used to that. So I don't know that they believe any of the threats coming out anymore. I don't know either. And our military, I mean, my gosh, obviously, you know, you believe, well, they always need to be ready at a moment's notice. But I mean, it's a big difference when you're preparing and when you're going to, you know, have an attack and you're all out and now you have to just be at that heightened sense for a moment's notice that may or may not come. I mean, I'm with you. Let's make it come. Let's have it happen. Yeah. I just think it's time. And we were right when we said yesterday, I mean, it needs to happen. And he was ready to do it, apparently, which I don't know. I feel like he should have. Yeah. You know, yeah. Amir, you know, CP, Crown Prince, I call him CP. Yeah. And you know, there's UAE Prez. No. Yes. Appreciate you calling. Right. Appreciate you calling. But yeah, we've heard this before from you guys. And I know that you're all jittery because you don't want to be attacked anymore, which is weird because you should have attacked Iran back. Right. It seems like. Haven't we sold you jets and fighter jets and military operations? Yes. Especially in the case of Saudi Arabia, the answer is yes. We have. Use them. Use them. Right. They're collecting a lot of dots. Go ahead. Yeah. How about you put a pilot in one of those and fly it over Iran? We've trained them. Go ahead. Jeez. Apparently, there was no clear indication prior to President Trump's post that the U.S. was preparing to strike Iran. I mean, that's good because we don't want them to know when we're going to strike. And they've officially scrapped the plans to do that today. President Trump told the New York Post in an interview yesterday that Iran knows what's going to be happening soon. Do they though? Do they? I don't, I think we've trained them that they know we're not going to do anything. At this point, if we actually do something that would be a surprise. Right. A surprise. But he said it's going to be happening soon if we can't reach a deal. But again, we've heard that multiple times. So I don't know. He did say we were getting ready to do a very major attack tomorrow. I put it off for a while, hopefully maybe forever, but possibly for a little while, because we've had a very, we've had very big discussions with Iran and we'll see what they amount to. I don't think so. But the attack's been put off for two or three days, he said, a short period of time because they think that they're getting very close to making a deal. That's what these keep saying. These leaders believe. Yeah, they do. They do keep saying that. Keep saying it. The Pakistanis have said it and now these guys are saying it. And I think the problem is, they're not dealing with the people who really make the decisions. I think that could be the issue here. Maybe they are talking to somebody that they're close to a deal with, but they're not the people in charge. And as soon as you make a deal and you announce the deal, then the people who are really in charge are saying, nope, we're not going to go along. We're not agreeing to that. I believe that at least that certainly appears to be what's been happening. It does. And Trump has talked about, well, they want to make a deal, then they don't want to make a deal. And whoever Pakistan is talking to and whoever we're talking to, it's just, it's not working. And it's not what might help is, I don't know, a good bombing campaign. A good bombing. Might help just a, it would go a long way. Yeah. Yeah. It's just me. The other thing that would help is to determine, and I don't know if the CIA can do this, apparently not because we don't know, determine who's really in charge here and then talk to those people. Cause that doesn't seem to be happening. That seems like what you'd want to do. Yeah, it does. Doesn't it? Determine who's really in charge, who's making the decisions, and then talk to them. Yeah. I know. Cause the proxies don't seem to be working. No, they don't. The proxies don't seem to be working. Cause the proxies are going back to whoever's in charge. We always made a deal. No, no, we're not doing that. So, and that keeps prolonging the whole thing. Yeah, it does. And then, so what that also prolongs is the inflation in America, the rising gas prices in America, all the things that we're a little tired of because we put up with it for so long during the Biden administration. And then things were improving under President Trump. And then this happened. So it's causing problems. And I know we've got a lot of goods at the ports, but that was a constant evolving thing, goods coming into the ports. And we were way behind, way behind, thanks to the straight of hormones being shut down. So we need to fix that immediately. I read this morning that since March 1st, so on the March, April, now half of May, more than half of May. So two and a half months, 20, a grand total of 20 ships have gone through the straight of hormones. So you know, 20, let's say I don't know how many ships actually go through the straight of hormones on a daily basis. Okay. All right. 20 sounds good. 20 is not good. 20 sounds okay. In two and a half months, it should probably be, I don't know, 500. We should look that up. How many, how many normally go through every month? Because it's a lot. Monthly, it's got to be a lot. Monthly, it's got to be, I mean, you know, it's 500 I would think would be a day. When it's a fifth of the world's oil supply. Right. That's a lot of ships. Yeah. Going to a lot of different places. And so now they're all stuck, they're just jammed up in this straight of hormones traffic jam. And so it's really, it's hurting the world's oil supply, which in turn hurts us because Jeffy, we're a global economy. Okay. I freaked out. And it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter how much of our own oil we have. It's a global economy. You don't seem to understand what I'm saying. It's global. So what affects the globe attacks us? It affects us. Oh, we can't refine it properly. We have to, we're a global economy. Right. We have more oil than we know what to do with in the US. But, but it's a global economy. They don't in outer Mongolia. So that affects us here. Okay. I guess if you say so, but that's what, you know, that's what we're told. And I think that is the reality because it happens every single time. Okay. So according to this, normal conditions, 20 to 21 million barrels of oil per day passed through the straight of hormones. How many ships is that? Typically around 15 to 20 large tankers transit daily daily alongside LNG carriers and container ships. So 35 to 50 a day. Flow is essentially global energy supply. Thank you. Yeah, we appreciate that. So, I mean, that's 500. So maybe more than that. But yeah, monthly, yeah, huge. Yeah. And 20 have passed through. Right. So that gives you an indication of why things are the way they are right. Right. Because again, it's a global economy. Despite the fact that we get virtually none of it from that area. We get right. We get none of it. Europe and China. We're self-sufficient. And the oil that we do get from other places comes from places like, I don't know, Canada and Mexico. So, and now Venezuela, because it's, that's ours now. Right. Since we've pretty much, right. That's ours. Yeah. By the way, we hear nothing about that situation anymore. That's done. Where are we with the Maduro thing? He's hanging out in. He's just hanging out. Jail, right? Yeah. And his wife. Yeah, I guess so. Yep. So I don't know when that trial is. We don't, man, we don't hear anything about it. And I'd love to know what's going on there. I'd love to know what's happening in Venezuela. And if, apparently it's going pretty well, because, I mean, the news media would be screaming about it. If not, right? Blaming it all on President Trump. So I just went to HormuzStraightMonitor.com. Love that. Oh man. The time I've spent, good times, good times, with HormuzMonitor.com. Oh man. Hormuz Straight. Straight. Yeah, right. That's what I meant. Okay. That's what I meant. 80 days. It's got the countdown duration of restriction. 80 days, 13 hours, 18 minutes. Restricted since February 27th. I mean, it's been, wow. Since, yeah. Wow. That's a lot. That's a lot. That's, it's too long. Traffic overview seems to be zero. So, feel straight. So no traffic at all right now. That's not been opened up. No. So what you're saying is the straight of Hormuz is closed. It's closed. I thought that was unacceptable. And I thought we were going to allow that. And then we started doing the escorts. We have to know where the mines are, right? I would think so. We heard we were doing the escorts. And then we stopped doing that. Yeah. And then they said, well, we got mines. Okay. Well, I mean. And then was it, was it General Kain or Pete Hexeth? Somebody last week said that we have destroyed 90% of the mines in the straight. That was Cooper, I think, right? It might have been. Yeah, the Centcom. Yeah. So, if you know it's 90%, you know that there's 10% remaining. How do you know that? Have you seen them and you haven't eliminated it yet? Get rid of it. And I think we, I don't know. I just feel like we have the technology to put, find out a license plate from a space. Right. We have the technology of pilot runners, runners with Apple watches run around a town and form a heart so they can show their loved ones how much they love them with the heart. I ran this for you. But we can't know where the mines are. I'm not familiar with the Apple watch run with the heart. Where did that happen? I don't know. Some guy. Sounds beautiful. There are other ships that make other shapes. Okay. Well, they run. Other than the heart. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. And we can do that. We can do that, right? And we can all laugh. But we can't figure out where the mines are. We don't know where the mines are. I don't think I believe it. Last 10%, they're so pesky. Don't think I believe it. And I think that, you know, all these ships and companies, while they have, you know, millions invested, couldn't we just say, you know what, if you get hit by one of them, we'll help you fix it. You know, we'll plug the hole. I know. We'll plug the hole. Let's go. Let's get this thing going. Look, I'm not a ship captain, so I can't say for certainty that I would do that. But I think I'd take a chance. Right. Rather than sit there for two more months. Right. I think I'm transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Me too. And just take a shot. I'm going to take a shot at it because chances are I'm not going to hit a mine or even be hit by a missile from a right and Cooper last week told us that they hear they're down to these to come with dozens of fast boats to invade ships that are only down to maybe three at a time now, which is right. Okay. Yeah. We take out. We take those on. Let's go. Let's do it. All right. More 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 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 personality, a name, a story that hasn't been written yet. Just $28 provides one free ultrasound. Now, that's less than a dollar a day and it could save a life. $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 is what we do together when we provide ultrasounds to these expecting mothers. To get involved, just dial pound 250, say the key word, baby. That's pound 250, keyword, baby, or go to preborn.com slash back. 10 seconds, station ID. Great to have you with us. There's been no endorsement yet from President Trump in the Cornyn-Pakston race, which is coming up very soon. This is a big race in Texas and for the country. So you got a vested interest in this because Republicans have to hold on to the Senate. If they don't, it's going to be real problems. And so whoever wins this race between Cornyn and Paxton has to beat James Tellerico, who's a nightmare Democrat in the general election in November. It's really critical. Now, President Trump has stayed out of it so far. And I'm afraid if he gets into it, he's going to weigh in on the side of John Cornyn. That's possible. I think it's likely. That's possible. And I will say that I've heard every time I, well, I just, I got a text just yesterday, just yesterday, bashing. And I don't know what, how they got my number. And I don't, I don't really want them to text me, although now I'm using it on the air. So go ahead. But they, it's Attorney Paxton, dangerous incompetence. And this is all I see from ads. Dangerous incompetence? Yes. Really? Dropped cases against human traffickers. All right. I saw this ad. I saw this ad. Release these human traffickers back into our neighborhoods. Uh-huh. Call and tell AG Ken Paxton to do his job. And then vote for him after you do that. Then vote for him next Tuesday. Okay. Tell him, go ahead and call him and tell him to do his job. That's fine. But make sure you vote for him on Tuesday. It doesn't say that. No. That's off. That's off right after that. But the president was asked about this. Are you gonna do an endorsement? I mean, it's coming. It's a week from today. That's what I was thinking is that you're right. He's going to weigh in and Cornyn, you know, he spent way more than I heard a hundred million. I don't know if that's accurate. That's a lot of money on a primary. We've seen and during football season, uh, when those ads ran, we was never ending. Yeah. John Cornyn one after another about how great he was. And I mean, it was because of him that Donald Trump built the wall. That's the way it sounded in his ads for sure. I mean, he's, he made every ad sound like Trump had endorsed him. Yes, he did. I was standing with Donald Trump and he would show Trump in the ad and sometimes showed Trump and Cornyn together. He did try to make it look like he got the endorsement. Absolutely. Here's what the president said though, uh, last week. Yeah, I'll make a decision. Maybe relatively soon. If it's not, uh, it's going to be too late. Yeah. So you might want to step in on that and get rid of this rhino. You know, he's worried about Thomas Massey being a rhino. The real rhino is John Cornyn. All right. Triple eight, seven, two, seven, BECK, Pat and Jeffy for Glen. 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 siren 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.

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn this week. He is, uh, he's in Prague. Uh, he just did a Instagram post or an ex post where he was talking about cutting his Christmas album, I think with his daughter and they're in, uh, they're in Prague right now doing this Christmas CD. Uh, and, uh, last night was the last night or is it tonight? He was going to have dinner with the Czech prime minister, which is so weird because I just had dinner with the Czech prime minister last weekend and the Slovakian foreign minister. Oh, there you go. Yeah. So I had Czech Koslovakia, both of it, all of it. I had the whole thing, uh, here, here in the United States or did you travel to Europe? No, they came to see me. No, they came to see me. Yeah, I didn't have to travel to them. I didn't have to go to them. They traveled to me. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. So, so I can kind of relate what he's going through right now, you know, uh, and that's great. Now, it's supposed to be a really good, uh, Christmas album. Of course it is beautiful. It's using symphony there in Prague and there's, and the symphony is playing in the background while you see the studio in that video. You could think to yourself, well, there's not a studio like that in the United States of America, but no, they're all closed. All of them. You did discuss that with me. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, the only one available was in Prague, uh, Czech Republic. That's not me. Yeah. I forgot that. Well, come on, get with the program, would you please? Yeah. Yeah. There's a limited number of studios that are available right now. So I'm glad he got one. Yeah, me too. Me too. Did you see the WBA, the WNBA? The WNBA. The WNBA is promoting, I don't know, something that's coming up. Well, they promoted, yeah, two big games. Two big games. One of them was the Indiana Fever. And who's the, one of the biggest players in the WNBA and for plays for the Indiana Fever? Uh, don't, you're not talking about, I don't know, are you talking about, uh, well, one of these women, um, that they've shown, do we, do we have the, uh, we should, I think, I think we do have, we do have the photo WNBA one and WNBA two. Yeah. Uh, let's show both of those if we could, because this is, they're promoting, they go away from, I mean, you know, all the time. Okay. That's who they're promoting right there. I don't know their names, not following the WNBA, uh, as I do or don't do one of the two. Uh, but there's somebody from Seattle and a woman from Indiana. Okay. And then there's, there's another one that shows the other team. There they are. There they are. And of course, no, Caitlin Clark. No, Caitlin. So it is so obvious now and so egregious. I mean, it should be an absolute embarrassment for the WNBA. I didn't look, the other players are, you know, the other player for the Indiana fever is great. I mean, I, she means a lot to me and the team. Yes. Yes. I can't remember her name right now. No, but that was just weird because she means so much to you. I know. You would think it'd be emblazoned on your mind, but it's not. One would think that if you're promoting this, uh, and they're promoting this game and another game, uh, to be, you know, your prime, come watch us. That one would use, you know, the biggest star in the league that you have. The only star that anybody's even paid attention to in the history of the WNBA. But this proves that they care more about their, uh, black lesbian agenda for sure than they do the success of their business. And that's fine. I mean, I don't care about the WNBA. I've never watched a single game, but it's definitely worth noting here. I think when this league finally, mercifully goes out of business, they can look back on this time period where they refused to even mention the best, most popular player in their sport. Yes. Because, uh, she's the wrong color and the wrong sexual preference. Yeah. Can you imagine the opposite scenario here? If the league was full of straight white girls and a super talented black lesbian came in and turned the league upside down. Why wouldn't you promote her? You would promote her. Can you imagine if you didn't, right? What would they say? That's what they would be saying. You're racist. You're horrific. You're discriminatory. Yeah. It would be cataclysmic. I mean, it would be like the NBA ignoring LeBron James, the biggest star in the league. I mean, there are really quality white guys in the NBA right now. There's Cooper Flag, who's a rookie this year, Luca Doncic, Nicolò Jokic, and, you know, they get their due. Sure they do. The NBA promotes these guys. Why can't the WNBA do the same thing? I don't understand it. It's bizarre. They just continue to shoot themselves in the foot. Over and over. Don't understand it. And again, I don't understand it. I don't really care, but it's just fascinating because it's that leftist agenda that they care more about than even promoting their league. Right. Here's somebody who's actually filling seats in your readiness. And they just got a new deal. I mean, she's helping you make back some of the money that you're in the red about as it anyway. Didn't they boost their minimum pay to 200,000, 250,000? They boost their minimum pay. They've made everything. Everybody got rich. Everybody got more money. And it's because of Caitlyn Clark. Correct. They are. Everybody's flying private now, just like the NBA players do. You know, when they go to games, they don't have to fly domestic because people were going crazy. People were actually confronting players who were going up against Caitlyn. So Caitlyn Clark helped them there. Yeah. And here's the most interesting part of this perhaps is that Caitlyn Clark plays their game. She sure does. She plays right along with it. And okay, maybe she thinks that's the way, you know, obviously she does. Maybe that's how she's just got to get along. Yeah, I guess so. I mean, how's it working so far? Not, not well. I mean, I, I don't know. I don't know. It's bizarre. Very bizarre. But Jeffy has more for us. Fabulous topics with the fat five. A couple of weeks ago, Rachel Entrican had three goals for the Cocodona 250 mile ultramarathon in Arizona. And I know you didn't do it this year. Pat, you didn't take the Cocodona 250 mile ultramarathon. I did not this year. No, I didn't. Well, you would have lost because the first of that Rachel had was for the women's competitors to finish close to the 60 hour mark. The second was for a woman to place in the top three overall. And third was to have three women finish in the top 10. She went three for three. She's 34 now. She set out for 250 miles through Central Arizona on Monday morning. And by Wednesday afternoon, she finished new course record 56 hours, nine minutes, 48 seconds, becoming the first woman to win the race overall. I've never broke 60 on these, on these ultramarathons. So congratulations to her. It was a historic moment for ultra running. She all she won outright behind her were, you know, two other females. And so she went three for three, as I said, she's 34 finished the race, as I said, at 56 hours, nine minutes, 48 seconds, slept 19 minutes in that time. She stayed hydrated with precision crafted electrolyte drinks and gels. Apparently had a Coke or two, but a lot of mashed potatoes. And she's teamed up with this precision fuel and hydration team that load her up. And she said that she's like a race car. And the company Emily, the company is, is the mechanic and the mastermind. It just keeps her going. That's powerful. They feed her with powerful. They feed her. She said she gets fed the saccharine gels and shoes, the blander, the better, ramen, rice, broth, mashed potatoes. And if it's beige, I'm all over it. So congratulations to Rachel. Very excited on her behalf. I'm going to the Corcadona 250, but I'm coming for it next year. It's the race. It's the race. It's the race where they run. The middle after. 250 miles? 250 miles. That's a long way. It's a long way. It is. Yeah. It is. It takes a lot out of you. Heck yeah. Thus the pickle juice or whatever it is she's drinking. Sometimes we like when you get, we hit that 200 mile mark, you want to quit. You do sometimes, but not me. I mean, I, I, that's when I realize time to push through it. Thank you. Somebody give me some mashed potatoes. 70% of Americans say they don't want data centers in their backyard. What? For a new Gallup survey, the script has flipped in public opposition to data centers starting to solidify. A new Gallup survey asked a thousand Americans for their thoughts on data centers. And then this is the first such survey. 70%, as I said, are opposed to the construction of AI data centers. And I wouldn't, I would say that the states are saying tough to you, because they're building them. They are building them. I guess there's some communities that are actually listening to the people and they've introduced some bands and moratoriums, but overall many states are just moving on with them because it's a lot of money. And so good luck. Good luck to not being able to, you know, have the data center next to you. In fact, now it's kind of flipped on them. They, they're stronger, they're, they're stronger against data centers than they are having nuclear power plants in their backyard. So let's build them. Let's build them all. Let's go. I love this story. There's a narrow island in eastern Canada and it's, you know, it's beautiful, although it's being battered by freezing winds. Hundreds of gray seal pups lie dead every breeding season. And they have these oddly shaped wounds and the injuries start at their mouth and corkscrew down to their chest and it just there they lay. And for years, scientists blamed sharks and humans, boat propellers for the bizarre deaths. It's easy. They published a new report in Marine Mammal Science, which is great reading. I usually wait for the swimsuit edition. Take a moment. Yeah. I haven't read this year's yet. The Marine Mammal Science swimsuit edition. Uh-huh. Awesome. Yeah. Really good. Apparently the, the gray seals are killing themselves. They're, the bigger, meaner gray seals are killing the weaker, small seals. Oh no. It had nothing to do with. Don't say that. Don't humans. It's unbelievable to me. And they kept, they didn't want to say anything. Uh, they just reported it and moved on. So this story that I was reading actually had this, Claudia Hernandez Camacho, who was a marine biologist and she's also got some other long title, the Interdisciplinary Center for Marine Sciences at Mexico's National Polytechnique Institute. Beautiful. Uh, who was not involved in the study. She said, you know, studies like this are so important because they remind scientists that sometimes the killer isn't humans. Huh. Uh, something much closer to home. Yeah. It's funny. Actual science. There's a science changes. It's not the humans. It's incredible. Anthropic is, uh, they've, they're $1.5 billion settlement for a class action lawsuit from authors over the copyright infringement has been halted. The federal judge presiding over the case said, I want to find out why some class members objected to the settlement and opt it out. Um, allow me to help you, your honor. Uh, they wanted to be able to sue anthropic on their own. But what do I know? What do I know? Because if you sue, if you're part of this class action thing, you're done with it. You're going to get a $1.95. And then that's it. Nobody cares about that. And you can't sue on your own. Right. Right. So, so who would want to do that? It's not worth it. Well, I mean, you're hoping to get a cut of the 1.5 billion, right? If you're, yeah, but it's going to be a small little cut. If you're an author and everyone is, you know, you, you hope to get the, you're a little bit of cut, but, uh, the big authors, why would they, why, I mean, they still, anthropics stole their worth. Right. They deserve more than 25 cents they're going to get in the class action. Right. Because we've all been a part of the class action. So that's what you end up with. You had a whole check for 25 cents. Woo. Man. Party time. Don't spend that all in one place. That kind of generational wealth doesn't just fall out of the sky. No, it does not. Uh, that's the, the two of them, fat, fat five. Be sure to subscribe to our show, Pat Gray Unleashed. Yes.

Apparently Bill Belichick's girlfriend's family has some questions for her. Oh yeah, she's 25. Yeah, no, I know. He's 74. Yeah. So Jordan Hudson. Can't put an age on love. No, that's thank you. Thank you for that. Okay. Yeah, a lot of Jordan's extended family has never met Bill apparently. In fact, she doesn't have a relationship with many of them. Hasn't talked to some of them in years. Oh well. I'm imagine I imagine that bringing your boyfriend who is older than your grandfather. I imagine bringing that guy home is just a tad awkward. First of all, it's Bill Belichick. Okay. Yeah.

The trial of Luigi, Luigi Manjoni happening right now. We're going to get into that and a lot more coming up in 60 seconds. You know, you wake up one day, you check your bank account, you discover, hey, I apparently purchased a jet ski in Romania, which is surprising for a couple reasons. First, first of all, you don't remember purchasing a jet ski. And then secondly, you've never been to Romania. And yet somehow, according to your credit card company, you're currently living a really exciting international lifestyle. Your personal information is floating around in a thousand different databases. And all it takes is one date of breach, one stolen password or one scam for somebody to start pretending to be you. Well, life lock helps monitor for threats to your identity and personal information, and they can alert you to certain suspicious activity. So you connect fast because identity theft isn't just annoying. It can take months to untangle the damage. If it can be untangled.

So the trial of Luigi Mangione, just a refresher. He's the guy that snuck up on the CEO from United Healthcare, shot him and killed him, shot him in the back on the street in New York City. He's on trial. Allegedly. Allegedly. There's just video of it happening, but don't let that bother you. They won't. They don't have it. I know. I mean, this murdering scumbag is bad enough all on his own, but what makes this whole situation even worse are all the women lined up around the corner of the courthouse. They rode up trying to get a glimpse of him, and holding up signs that say, free Luigi. Yeah. He murdered somebody. Free Luigi. Is sick? Yeah. You bet. Any woman who's there for that purpose should automatically have their voting rights revoked permanently. Really? Yeah. Yes. If you're there for Luigi and you just want to see this hunk. What if I don't have a t-shirt that says free Luigi? What if I'm just there? Are you there for Luigi? Well, yeah, but I don't have a t-shirt. Are you supporting Luigi? Well, yeah, but I don't have a t-shirt. No, I'm sorry. No vote. You can't vote anymore. Ever. Okay. To make this murdering coward into a hero just shows. It is amazing. It shows how effective the efforts of the Marxists in the Democrat Party have been at creating class warfare. And an eat the rich mentality in this country. Boy, that's for sure. This is one of the many reasons that no modern liberal democracy has ever lasted 250 years. None of them. Zero. It's also why we're not a democracy. That's why I keep emphasizing that point. Even though I know some, no doubt, find it a little bit nitpicky. It isn't. Still, I mean, if we would have stopped them early, we wouldn't have had to do it now. Right. That's right. That whole democracy thing was for them to reverse what we really are. That's right. And we're not a democracy. We're a constitutionally mandated republic, democratic republic. Why are we a republic? Well, because democracies don't work. All democracies get to the point where it's become two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. And guess what? The majority rules. We're eating sheep tonight. Oh, and the lower economic classes start resenting, envying and hating all that the upper class has. Then they become the wolves in society. And they make no secret about it. Just last week, we heard AOC proclaim that billionaires shouldn't exist. And if they do exist, it's only because they exploited, they cheated, they stole their way to that fortune. Oh, she's not alone in believing that. Not by a long shot. So many, probably most millennials believe that. In New York City, Zaran Mamdani made one of the most inexcusable and irresponsible videos I've ever seen a politician make when he pointed out Ken Griffin's point penthouse a couple of weeks ago in New York City, pointed right to it. He said, here's where a billionaire lives. What? Like you, because you want him to be dragged out of his house and killed in the street? Well, if he were to answer, honestly, the answer would be yes. Yes. Yes. I think that's true. So we're in a really dangerous place right now. And we got to get a grip on this class warfare. It can't happen. This is America. We're capitalists. We know that it's great to be successful. And you should be rewarded for your efforts. Why not? I mean, look at the billionaires in this country. Look at Elon Musk. Was that fortune given to him? No. He lied to the steel. Bill Gates. As much as I don't like Bill Gates, he, well, he stole his way to that place. He stole it from IBM and Xerox. Never mind. Never mind. Yeah. Bill Gates is not a good example. Jeff Bezos. Yeah, that guy. Jeff Bezos started a company in his garage. Look at Amazon today. Apple started in the garage too. Steve Jobs and Apple with Wozniak. I mean, these guys had an idea, put it to use, and developed it into things that changed the world. I mean, has anybody changed the world as much as Apple did? Yeah, but between Apple and Amazon? Oh my gosh. It's unbelievable. The world changed. I remember in the late 90s when the scooter, the Segway, was invented and they wouldn't say what it was yet, but it was something that was going to change civilization. It's going to change the way cities were developed and whatever. And that was so untrue. It came out and it changed the way mall cops get around the mall. That's all it did. Some postman, some news, post service, use those. Yeah. Yeah, a couple of those. But then Apple came along and really did change the world. The iPhone, the iPad, all of those things changed the world. So did Amazon. Amazon did most things. Changed the way we shop, changed a lot of different things. Everything. Oh, I mean, the world changed. Really did. The way we expect goods to be delivered to us. Yeah. And how incredible. I saw a movie last week called Blackberry. Have you seen that? It's streaming now. Oh, because it's about the rise and fall. It's about the rise and fall of Blackberry. I loved Blackberry. It was a great movie. It's a really good watch. Oh, I loved the actual Blackberry. Some of it is fictionalized, but it's the main characters. That part's real. Most of what they went through is real in it. But you see how Blackberry started out and really started to change things. And it really became a big part of people's lives, especially business people. Remember, it was called Crackberry for a while because people couldn't stop looking at it. They couldn't stop using it. And then along came Apple and the iPhone and that wiped them out. I mean, Blackberry doesn't even do Blackberries anymore. Some of us held onto our Blackberries until the last moment. Okay, we're not giving it up. I still have it. I still have an Android phone. But it's not a Blackberry. No, it is not. Google? It's actually better than Blackberry. Samsung. Okay. Yeah. It's actually better than the Blackberry. But yes, Apple came along and it was a new world. It was over. Yeah. I mean, they wiped them out in a year, probably, if not less than that. As soon as they came up with the touchscreen, man, that changed society. Absolutely. And that kind of innovation shouldn't be rewarded. People shouldn't experience a life-changing event from that. Whoever created the touchscreen, I'm a fan of you. I'm a fan of you. Me too. My wife has a laptop at our house, beautiful laptop, big laptop she uses to edit photographs. And it doesn't, it's not a touchscreen. I hate it. I feel like we're living in caveman days when she shows me stuff on it. Because she shows me stuff and I reach out to move the screen and it's like, what are, I can't, what are we doing? I know. It's like, what is this from dinosaur times? I know this, this is supposed to be, what's in front of me is supposed to be a touchscreen. And it was something that went wrong with it. And now I don't even know how to, I can't even function now. It's thrown me completely off. It takes me an hour longer to do anything I'm trying to do now. I have to plan for an extra hour because it doesn't have my touchscreen anymore. I don't know if it broke. I don't know if I touched something and that made it non-touchable. I don't know what. I seem to remember, I seem to remember one of the so-called experts in this building coming in and not being able to fix it. Right. Right. So, I don't know. It's time to throw it away now. It's junk. It's junk. It's just garbage now. But that's how much our lives have changed with this stuff. Kids in the Sudan would look at that and say, what? Not touchscreen? No. It's thrown away. Definite first world problem. Yeah, absolutely. Definitely a first world. It just shows how great our lives are. Absolutely. In the United States of America, we have pretty great lives. No question. And it's because of capitalism. It's, it sure is. It sure is. And I hope that we can get that through the rising generation's heads. Because they've been indoctrinated with the opposite ideology on that. They think the opposite. Capitalism sucks. Socialism is great. Yeah. The collective. What socialist society ever changed the world. Collective is the way it is important. It's important for everyone. How many of these products that we use every day? Count them up in your head really quickly. Our Russian. Did you want me to do it this fast? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's kind of embarrassing to me right now. I tried to come up with a number like that. Right. Yeah. This fast. Because there's so much. I'm going to take a shot. Okay. I'm going to take a shot. Zero. It's about that. Unless you drink vodka. BJ brings up vodka. That might be a Russian thing. I apologize. I don't know that they invented it. I don't think people are using it daily. And if you are, please seek help. But, right. You know. But okay. I'll give you vodka. And those, those are probably on a ship in the Strait of Hormuz. So we can't even get that. Right. You're not even getting that right now. I mean, China is the same way. What do you have that's uniquely Chinese that they came up with that they didn't steal from us? Is there anything? I don't know. I can't think of anything. A lot of it's manufactured there, but they didn't come up with it there. We did. And then we sent it to them because they'll work for cheap. They'll do 10 cents an hour and they'll send it back to us and it'll be. And not only that, you know, another thing that they do, which is really, which is a crime and we let it happen. We go, we send something over there to be manufactured for us. Right. I don't know. I like a computer, for example. And they make it and send it to us to sell. Well, then they come up, then they copy it and make another factory that makes the same computer only under a different name. And they send it here to sell it. But that's using our proprietary information and our blueprint. Yeah. It's bad. That's not, that's not, it's not right. That takes, that takes sales away from this product. Exactly. From the original product. It really, yeah. It shouldn't be allowed. And I guess, you know, they would say, well, it's not allowed, but they let it happen. And what was great in one of the things that was great about the Blackberry movie is that they talk about how you send things to China and they wouldn't at first. Blackberry had everything manufactured here because they trusted American workers. And when they sent to China, they knew that they didn't give a crap about American products that they're assembling. And so they didn't, they didn't take the time to do it right. And so only at the end, when they were really in trouble, did they go ahead and say, okay, send it to China. When they were starting to realize the jig is up and we're not going to make it with this Apple thing happening. And by the way, Apple sends all their stuff to China where it's assembled. Well, I think they actually, I think some of it is in India now. And they claimed, I guess, they, they made a deal with Trump that they were going to start doing it. And I don't know what percentage, you know, they're going to have here in the US, here in India, and here in China. But I mean, Tim Cook, who's not the CEO anymore, just sits on the board. He took a trip to that China with President Trump. I mean, he was there. Right. So has he officially stepped down? Or is it coming? I think it might be coming. They've made the announcement. But I think he's like helping the next guy. Yeah, you're right. Tim hasn't hasn't. But he will. I think it's the end of the year. All right, we got more coming up in one minute. 40 for details about credit costs and terms. Summer used to mean a couple of cookouts, 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, vacation, 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. Well, that's why I want you to talk to American financing. They help home owners 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 be able to even delay two mortgage payments. There's no upfront fees to find out if you qualify. Just call 800-906-2440. That's 800-906-2440. Or go to Americanfinancing.net. 10 seconds, station 8. Speaking of movies as we were a moment ago with the Blackberry movie, what was number one over the weekend? This is kind of amazing. Oh, Michael. Because Michael shot back up to the top of the chart again. Pretty amazing. I mean, was it third last week or some? This was the fourth week that he's been at the theaters. And it broke back to number one, Devil Prada 2 or whatever it was, was number two. And this was their second week? Week three for Prada. So Michael goes back to number one. I mean, Michael has already hit like 703.9 million globally. And it hasn't even opened to Japan yet. And Japan loves Michael Jackson. So, I mean, that's by far the best biopic in history. I mean, he's making, cranking out the numbers. Definitely worth doing another one, for sure. And it says at the end of the movie, I mean, the story continues. So I think there's another one coming. And I think everybody knows it. Well, I mean, this movie's already making at least 700 million. It's going to probably break a billion. Yeah, we can go ahead and do another one. Yeah. Let's give that the green one. Yeah, we can go ahead and do that. Just go ahead and have a script to me next week. It's going to be interesting to see how they treat the next one. Because you're getting into the years where the controversies start. I mean, there were already some, but it was like the monkey. All right, he's got a llama. He's weird. But he's early. He had a zoo. He had a zoo. Okay. He didn't have a child. It was neverland. So he's got a zoo. Yeah, it was neverland. Whatever. But then there's some other things that are about to take place. Apparently. I mean, I really believe now. I'm back to believing. I mean, I go back and forth on Michael Jackson. I don't know that he did it. I don't know. I don't know what he did. I don't know either. The latest charges are from people who for years were for him. Decades. Yeah, this family that is all over him and are suing him for over $200 million now, suing his estate for years were adamant that he didn't do anything to them. All three of them. I know Michael. No, he never did anything. I think I'm going to pursue the Michael Jackson foundation family too, because for years, anytime Michael came on the radio, my son would cry. And so, yeah. Wow. That's the first time hearing it. Well, I don't like to talk about it, because it was so traumatic. Obviously traumatic. Yeah. So I'm going to sue them too. That's got to be worth $100 million. This does seem like a money grab from this family. So Prada was two and then Obsession, which was brand new from Loom House, you know, was number three, 16 million. Mortal Kombat. Second week drops down to, wow, what? Drops all the way down to two, three, four. Yeah, that didn't do that well. Well, sheep detectives, which I'm sure is hilarious. Sounds great. I'd have no idea what it is. Super Mario Galaxy movies still hanging in there. They've been on week seven for them. They're almost at a billion. That's huge. Project Hail Mary hanging in their top gun anniversary. They re-released a double billing of that. So, I mean, this weekend you have Is this the Mandalorian and Grogu thing? Yeah, this weekend. So it'd be interesting to see how that does. Yeah. I mean, I'm sure it's probably going to be Michael, but we'll see. We'll see. 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.

We were talking about Luigi Manjone, Manjone, whatever his name is. Is it Chuck Manjone or Chuck Manjone? It's Chuck Manjone. This is a poor rich kid from Baltimore who had no issue really. The initial thing was that he had some back issue that wasn't covered by that. None of that turned out to be true. Which I think was BS. Yeah, that was all BS. No, it turned out to be the case. He didn't even have a reason. No, he was doing it on behalf of other people or whatever. I mean, he murdered the Blue Cross moveshield CEO. You achieved that. On behalf of other people. On behalf of other people. Thank you. You know, except no. I appreciate him thinking of me. But that's okay. It's unbelievable. It's really unbelievable. It surely is. And then because he's handsome, you got these women falling all over at this murder. It's evil murderer. Yesterday there was an interesting ruling by the judge on some of the evidence because he separated it out, which I found weird because they were the prosecutors can't admit some items in Manjone's backpack when they arrested him at McDonald's because there was a loaded magazine, a passport and a wallet that they can't use, but they could use the notebook and the note book found in his bag. They could use that. That's his manifesto. Just really kind of strange. I'm not quite sure. They assumed that it was going to be all or nothing. Right? And so it was. They separated it out though. And it sounds like the stuff that he okayed to be used as evidence is going to be enough to collect him. Yes. Absolutely. Yes. And then it was a timeline issue of when they arrested him and when they took the backpack. It sounded to me like anything that got from the backpack when they were at the McDonald's is inadmissible. And then when they took him to the police station, it was admissible. And that was the gun and the notebook. So, I mean, that'll be enough. He's pled not guilty of duh, of course, but he is, he's pled not guilty to nine state felony charges, including secondary murder and various counts of, you know, related to his possession of a weapon. He's pleaded not guilty in the separate federal case, which charges him with two counts of stalking. And each of those charges have a maximum sentence of life without parole. And I think the state is 30 years or something like that. So, I mean, he's not if found guilty. He won't get out of jail. You know, I mean, they, you know, we'll see what happens. I mean, the bullets, remember the, I've forgotten about this, but they have the, they recovered the shell casings with the words delay, deny, depose written on them. So weird. But, you know, they have that. And so, you know, that added to how handsome he is. You know, when he wrote those words, because they all have since illiteration. It's so weird. Really weird. The whole thing is fascinating with this guy. So the trial is freaky trial is not even set to begin until September. And then they have the federal trial, which is supposed to take place, you know, sometime in the fall as well. So he continues to be in jail. So hopefully he'll be found guilty and he'll stay there. He'll stay in prison. Absolutely. The rest of his life. He's not charged with a capital offense. Well, they're not asking for the death penalty, but I don't know if there is one. Yeah, is there one in New York? I don't remember. I doubt it. I don't think there is. Maybe most of the, there might be a death penalty, but they don't kill anyone anymore. So they give you the death penalty, but But you sit in jail for the rest of your life. Right. So, I mean, good luck to him. Really, all the best. Really? You mean that? All the best. That is nothing. I love people who just walk up to people on the street and kill them. And shoot them. Yeah. Because of, for, on behalf of other people, you know, that means a lot. Yeah. We had the shooting in San Diego at the, you know, at the, at the mosque. Yeah. And it's just terrible. It was just terrible. And then, you know, the, the, these two teenagers killed three adult men at the mosque. There were a lot of children on the premise and they didn't kill anyone. Thank goodness. Yeah. The security guard, none of them got hurt. Yeah. The security guard was, you know, really did his job, although caused him his life. Yeah. But, you know, they took off and they finally found them. San Diego Police used all their, all the, all their messaging apps and their special license plate readers to find them quickly. And they had, they had, I guess they found a gas can in the car that had what they claim as a Nazi sticker on it. So I'm not sure the one, the one. I think it said SS on it. Yeah. It looked like, you know, okay, is that weird? All right. I mean, the one kid, I think was a Mexican, right? I don't know. Hispanic sound, Ignat. Yeah. And so, you know, I don't know that you can become a Nazi. I guess you could become one. Like if you're, I don't know, they allow you in the group. Yeah. I don't know. The whole thing is just so bizarre. You don't know the rules of the Nazi group? I don't. I don't. Is that a surprise? No, I don't know the Nazi groups. I just thought maybe, you know, you've been asked or something. No, I haven't even been asked to join. So that's good. Also, Africa's top public health officials yesterday confirmed an Ebola outbreak. So we got that going for us too. That's great. There is a current Ebola outbreak happening in a northeastern province of the Democratic Republic of Congo. At least 246 suspected cases and now 80 deaths have been reported with four definitely linked to Ebola via lab testing. So they're for sure four who have died. They haven't, I guess, lab tested the others. Right. They know that it is. It's the Congo's 17th recorded outbreak since Ebola was first identified in 1976 in Africa. Why do people live in Congo? That's where they live. That's where they live. I mean, here's the thing. Move. Some people can't. Some people can't. They can't see outside of their own prison. What it is? You know what? Some people can't see out of their own prison. And the bars are there. The bars are there. They just can't look past them. Okay. So that's where they're from. And they're... It doesn't seem like the best place to raise a family. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong. Here's the thing. If the DRC is too violent for you or there's, you know, you don't want to work in the mines, a lot of people go to Uganda and South Sudan. That means that the Ebola... I thought you just said they couldn't. They can't do that. Well, I'm just saying some of them. Okay. Some of them do. But amazingly, Uganda and South Sudan, I don't think is much better. And no, they've also got Ebola going on there. Right. Because they travel from the DRC. So here's the thing. They could stay there. You know, they'd have to go anywhere. Okay. There's some Americans over there. I think that, you know, end up getting Ebola. Was it three? I think we... I think I heard three that are there. Anyway... That's three too many. Ebola is believed to be naturally hosted by fruit bats. That I did not know. Okay. Mr. Kovach conspiracy theory comes from bats. Apparently you have to be... Do you have to be bitten by a bat? Yeah. I don't know. By a fruit bat in order to get Ebola? I... What if we wiped out the fruit bats? Would that... Would that help? There's a thought. How about we kill the fruit bats? There's a thought. And then you'd have a fight over the fruit bat lovers. We can't get rid of those. Oh, geez. And maybe... Probably what would happen. Maybe they're good for the planet. Maybe the fruit bats do something for the planet that I'm not aware of. If they host Ebola, they're not good for the planet. I'm going to go out on that limb and I'm willing to. I'm willing. Maybe it's just me that's out there on that limb. I think it might be because it's just a side effect. The Ebola is just a side effect of the goodness that they provide. And I don't know what that is just yet. Well... But I don't want to be smirched fruit bats just because of what little... You know, okay. I'm willing to. Ebola. I'm willing to. Ebola can cause severe gastrointestinal distress and unexplained bleeding. So if you're bleeding from your eyes or ears and you don't know why, and there's a chance it's Ebola. Probably Ebola. Probably don't want that. If you start sweating and maybe a little blood, don't touch people. Right. Don't... And we found out a few years ago, do you remember in the song? We do. Yes. The song which was called... Living Ebola Free. Yeah. Living Ebola Free. Do we have... Here it is. Yeah. Oh, I love this song so much. Just a little reminder for you. This will help you get through the Ebola epidemic. That's good advice. Good advice. I'm telling you. Diarrhear. That's good advice. I mean, you are welcome. Can we loan this to the Democratic Republic of the Congo? Just to help. We're just helpers here. Just some good safety tips in that song. All right. We may have to run it through the old translator. Yeah. But I think Ebola is pretty much said the same way, right? So look at the idea. The virus does spread between humans through direct contact with body fluids and past outbreaks have carried fatality rates ranging from 25% to 90%. That's a pretty wide range. What does that depend on, I wonder? Wow. From 25% to 90%. Probably how long would you wait to get help, right? Maybe. I don't know that. I'm just guessing like if you think you're sick and you're, you know... Yeah. You lay down, you don't go see a doc and there might not be a doctor available in some of these places. So except when the World Health Organization sends people in. So then you're, you know, you're days in of the illness before you actually get help, if you get help at all. Is this the one that doesn't have a vaccine at all? Yeah, they said this one. Isn't there some strain? Yeah, they said this was some strain. That's not part of the Zaire species of the Ebola strain. Which they have a vaccine for. Which is the only one afford with a licensed vaccine. Yeah. Wow. Okay. Okay, but again, there's no infection in the United States. As far as I know, nobody has it here. And if you're a United States citizen in the DRC, stay there. And stay away from other people's poop and pee, okay? And you'll stay. Ebola free. Washington talks. America builds. You're on the right end of that sentence. Glyn back. Back in a flash. So many people are living every day with pain that they just think they're stuck with it. It is what it is. But it doesn't have to be. I want to tell you about a letter I got from Oregon, a guy named George, and his relief factor story. George, a hard-working guy, spends 10 hours a day on a garbage truck. Tough job. Made even tougher because he's dealing with a sore right knee that just wouldn't bend. But here's the amazing part. George started taking relief factor and it changed his life. And he said in his letter to me, and I quote, I can bend my knee again with very little pain. I can relate to George. There was a time when I wondered if I could continue working because my pain was so bad. If you're living with aches and pains, see how relief factor, a daily drug-free supplement, can help you feel and live better every day. Give their three-week quick start a try, 1995. A few weeks, even days, you'll feel the difference that relief factor can make in your life. You don't have to be stuck living with the pain. Visit relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com, 804-RELIEF. That's 800, the number four relief. It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn this week, Triple 8, 727-V-E-C-K. Just to show you the genius that is, Alexandria, a Casio Cortez. We present this fabulous... Who is she talking to here? I don't remember. She went down to Alabama. Yeah, she went down to Alabama. And she's touring because she's upset about the redistricting and the damn Supreme Court. So she's in Alabama yelling about redistricting and whatever here she is. It is time for the North to pull up to the South. It is time for New York to pull up to Alabama. What does that mean? It is time for all of us to come to Georgia, to Louisiana, to Tennessee, to Mississippi, and let them know exactly what they have on court with this injustice. They think they can draw us out of power. They do not know the sleeping giant that they just awakened. Okay. Because it is not a coincidence and our whole country must understand that it was not until voting rights were ratified in this country that we got the great society. Because when black Americans have the right to vote and that vote is protected, all schools get funded. When voting rights are protected, healthcare gets expanded. When voting rights are protected, our country moves forward. And Montgomery, that's what they're actually afraid of. They're afraid of us coming together. They're afraid of us protecting one another. That's what we're afraid of. Alabama is the crucible. Georgia is the crucible. Tennessee, Louisiana, Mississippi is the crucible. Those are a lot of crucibles. So if you are not from here, it is time to pull up. Because what they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo. Have a little opening silo. Opening silo. It's opening salvo there, pumpkin. She just read it wrong. Nice try. No, she didn't read it wrong. She thinks it's an opening silo. I mean, otherwise when you say it, you go, oh, I didn't mean, no, no, that's not salvo. It's salvo. That's, that's what you do. Oh, but she didn't do. No, she did not. Did she? No, she did not. And she, she does absolutely does not know. Unbelievable. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program. There is a fun race for mayor in Los Angeles. And we'll get into the latest on that particular race. And then check things out across the country with a couple other cities, major cities that are going through some things right now. That and much more coming up in 60 seconds. 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, the back patio where a hundred barbecues happened. 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, 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 says it all. That's realestateagentsitrust.com. All right. Except not. It's Pat and Jeffy this week for Glenn, who is actually off. He's actually in Prague. He's on vacation. Yeah, he's on vacation. Did a little vacation clip yesterday. He did. He did. I haven't seen a follow up. I don't know how the dinner with the Prime Minister went. Yeah, I'm sure it's private. Well, if it went like mine, like my dinner with the Prime Minister last weekend, it'll be great. Yeah. I'm sure it will. But private. I mean. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because if I had a dime for all the Prime Ministers I've dined with. Oh, how much a dime? Yeah, or a dime. I'd have a dime. So. But I don't. I don't have that dime actually. Even when you're on vacation. Even when I'm on vacation. Especially when I'm on vacation. Good. Yeah. So. Weird. Isn't it though? All right. So Spencer Pratt is running for mayor of Los Angeles against Karen Bass and. Some other council member. Some other council member. Yeah, and council council. Yeah. But he has produced some incredibly great commercials through AI. And he's also done some actual real ones where he shows that he has a trailer on his burned out house property. Right. Now it turns out he may not actually be living there. Oh no. Well TMZ has reported on that. They have. They have. And he was asked about that. Well he, now there's two. We have the compilation video. Right. That shows all the things that he's said. And all the things that really have been said about him throughout the campaign so far. We'll get to that in a second. Which is incredible. But. First we gotta play this. TMZ went after him for his, for his not living on the property all the time. Right. And instead of taking it and putting his tail between his legs. He decided that he's going to fight back with his fresh prince of Bel Air. Pretty good. Good. As he pulls his trailer into Bel Air. Hilarious. Just showing the devastation of Los Angeles. See. Not taking what you got TMZ. Yep. Yep. There's his trailer. Mahal in my trailer. I go by it. Pretty good. Yeah. Oh, very fun. He's run a heck of a campaign. He has. And here's some highlights from that. Here's kind of a montage of some of the things he's been doing. There's been debates. There's been, you know, the videos that he's done. I mean, he's done interviews. That one interview before we get to the montage that I think it was 60 minutes did with him. And they cut it way down and they weren't going to air it all. And he, you know, he went on social media and called him out. And then they released it all. They, so, you know what? You're right. And we should do that. That in today's world, you betcha. Yep. And they did. And it was not bad at all. It was really good for him. There's a few minutes with Spencer Pratt. Yeah. I'm not sure how to respond to that vision of Los Angeles. This is a MAGA Republicans idea of what Los Angeles looks like. This is, this is really not. And he's making fun of her. Yeah. She doesn't have any authority with this homelessness. Really funny. She was the third most powerful person in city council. She runs the homeless housing thing. She acts like this is just mayor bass. First off, inside safe. I like to say inside safe makes all of us outside unsafe. The reality is no matter how many beds you give these people, they are on super met. They are on fentanyl. The DEA statistics says 93% of this is a drug addiction problem. Councilman Robbins plan for treatment first. I will go below the harbor freeway tomorrow with her. And we can find some of these people she's going to offer treatment for. She's going to get stabbed in the neck. These people do not want a bed. They want fentanyl or super meth. These ideas cost us over $400 million to house for $670 million. What did he say? 3,000 people for $400 million. This is absolute failure for both of them. They're a team. Do you know when the mayor was in Ghana as everything was burning down? Do you know who she left in charge? Her deputy mayor. Do you know where the deputy mayor was? I don't. The deputy mayor, the mayor, care ambassador, deputy mayor was on house arrest because she was arrested for calling it a bomb threat to city hall. This is real life. Many have compared you to Zora Montani. The one thing I connect with is I know he promised his voters like the subway will be free and I'm promising my voters the metro metro buses, the metro trains, they will be free from urine, feces, stabbing, attacks. So that's kind of similar. Those we both had free things for public transportation. And then once we started enforcing the laws, boom, streets will be back. You know who else? I'm going to bring in the CDC because there's medieval diseases in these encampments. They're not swabbing these encampments. They're not swabbing the streets. People are just living in feces and drug use and dogs burning and body. We need these streets cleaned. If this is a yes or no question and answer, so there's an elderly council member, he wants voters to decide. He is saying that non-citizens, should they be allowed to vote in local elections? Is this a yes or no, Mr. Pratt? No, no, it depends. It's not a yes or no. Well, first of all, when you say non-citizens, it doesn't mean they're here illegal. It doesn't mean they're undocumented. They could have green cards. They could be perfectly legal. And there's a lot of states and cities that do that on very, very local elections. We have to see what the councilman is proposing. Council member Bremen. Again, it does depend in other places. No, it doesn't. She's just bare-faced. It's a yes or no. Non-citizens. Both of these people have been the reason why there's no more Hollywood. Not to mention, even if they do these things, we're still going to have drug addicts all over the street because they're treatment first, open beds, not mandatory treatment. Do you know I talk to producers? They have to pay gang members right now to keep the streets safe, to go fill anything on the streets of LA. So absolutely no, these two politicians have failed Hollywood times a thousand. I'm no longer a reality star. And also, it's funny, I keep being called a reality star. I'm the only candidate living in reality. Oh, wow. That town is so unsafe now that they have to serve the food, all the employees have to eat inside. They can't risk going out. That's why all these beautiful restaurants are closing because it's so unsafe. So before we require city workers to go back in Eddie Billings, we need to enforce the laws on the street. Councilman Rahman is talking about safety yet when animal rescue activist Rebecca Corey came in and said the dogs are being tortured and abused on the streets of Dunn and she walked out of the hearing. She doesn't care about safety. She doesn't care about anything she's talking about. At least Mayor Bass pretends to care. I ran because I experienced what city leadership failure at the ultimate level is. That's why I stepped it up. That's what cuts through. So the media and everyone wants to jump on and be like, oh, Spencer's our guy. No, I'm the citizen. I'm the angry taxpayer. You can be a Democrat and love me. You can be a Republican. Love me. The only people that don't love me are communists and socialists. And I don't want them to love me. Are you saying you live in that trailer? Love it. I don't live anywhere is what I'm saying. I don't have a house. They burned it down. Thank you. First off, Mayor Bass and I are definitely not working together. I blame this person for burning my house and my parents' house and my town and all my neighbors down. I am not working with Mayor Bass. Second off, if I wanted to run against anybody, it would be the council member who is terrible. Mayor Bass has at least been a mayor for almost four years and has, as she talked about earlier, the unions, all the unions endorse Mayor Bass. You think it's easier to run against the incumbent mayor with all the unions or a random city council member who's been a failure for six years? I would much rather run against councilwoman Raman. Thank you very much. No doubt. It's incredible. I mean, if you're in Los Angeles, I don't know how you make the decision to vote for Karen Bass. It doesn't make any sense. It makes zero sense. I mean, both she and the councilwoman said that it depends on whether or not non-citizens can vote. No, it doesn't. What are you talking about? If you're not a citizen, and that was the question, you can't vote. Non-citizen. It's illegal for, I don't care if you're here illegally or legally. If you're here and you're not a citizen, maybe you have a green card, whatever. You still can't vote. Okay, no voting. This is not your country. You can't vote. You don't get to decide. You get to follow our laws. Right. Period. But you can't vote in our elections. Only citizens can do that. Wow. I mean, they are so far off track, and they're both, like matter of factly, oh, well, that depends. Oh, yes. That depends. Oh, yes. No, because she's Mayor Bass. Wow. I don't even know why she's actually running, to be honest. But I guess maybe it takes some of the attention away from Spencer Pratt. Yeah, maybe. You know, deflect some of that to her. So maybe she's the one working with Mayor Bass, so that the bad stuff gets deflected to her. But I don't see a choice other than Spencer Pratt. I don't live in Los Angeles, so. No, no, we don't. But if I was a non-citizen, maybe I'd get to vote. Yes, you would. You would if you were there legally. If you had a green card, you're there on a tour visa, whatever. Whatever. Makes a difference. It does. Incredible. Also, Karen Bass bewildered a lot of people when she made an impassioned statement about fixing the rotting teeth of meth addicts. And by the way, since you're the expert on this, what is super meth? What? Spencer Pratt kept calling it super meth? It's a bird. It's a pl— No! It's super meth! It has a cape. Does? Yeah, it has a cape. So it's meth with a cape. Comes with an edible cape. Okay, yeah, a lot of people don't know that. I didn't know that. Yeah, well. So it's good to know. Now you do. All right. So anyway, she made the comments the other day while talking about the homeless. She said they don't have teeth. Why? Because meth rots your teeth. How many people who are housed unhoused that you meet have no teeth at all? They don't have teeth because meth rots them. You can't succeed without teeth. That's a fact. So there needs to be. A comprehensive healthcare plan provided to these people without teeth. That's going to be interesting to see her get teeth for all of the toothless homeless people. That'll be great. And I'm sorry. They're not homeless. They're unhoused. If they could make that. I mean, if you could make that happen at all. I mean, they're— I mean, I guess the fake teeth or new teeth would rot with— Because they're going to continue. Because they'll be false teeth. So they're not going to rot, right? Kick the drug habit first. But. You would think that. I know. But you'd be wrong. If you're Karen Bass, she's just fixing the tooth problem. She's not worried about your homelessness necessarily. That's correct. No, she is not. Let's not figure out the root problem of why you're on the street and why you won't go into any of the homeless shelters. I mean, if you could figure that problem out and fix it, then maybe you'd have a shot at fixing their teeth. But until and unless you ever do that, you're not going to have a chance at fixing their teeth. I mean, this is— It's almost— Like, are you a fourth grader? Where are you getting these weird ideas? How dumb can you be? Wow. Then on the other side of the country, we've got another problem. With another mayor of a major city. So we got Los Angeles being run by a buffoon. And then on the other side of the country in New York City, in our largest city, we've got not just a buffoon, but a— Islamist. Marxist. Yeah. Islamist buffoon. Terrible. But the good news is for those of us that love President Reagan— Yeah. He talked about President Reagan. He talked— Zoran Moknabi talked about President Ronald Reagan. And here it is. I cannot help but think of the words of our 40th president, Ronald Reagan. Really? He famously said, the nine most terrifying words in the English language. Yeah. Or, I'm from the government and I'm here to help. It's a good quote, but I disagree. I think nine more terrifying words are actually, I worked all day and can't feed my family. What a surprise that he believes government has the answer. Wow. That's great. Yeah. So, you worked all day and you can't afford to feed your family. Turn to the government because they'll fix it for you. And he believes that. Oh, he sure does. And if—let me tell you something. Sure does. If you don't think you should turn to the government, he'll make you. So— Yeah. Yes, you will. All right. Triple eight, seven, two, seven, BECK. More coming up in one minute. 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. We're not a good idea.

All right, so it's Patton, Jeffy, by the way, for Glenn this week. Now, after we've taken care of the mayoral situation, now we got to worry about another election that's going on today in Kentucky. And it's Thomas Massey, a solid conservative, a fiscal conservative, a social conservative. And he's at least at the last poll that we saw trailing his primary opponent by eight points. Yes. Holy cow. I did not like to see that this morning. And to make matters worse, Pete Hakeseth is in Kentucky campaigning against him. That's a problem for me. That's a problem for me too. I like pistol Pete. I do too. He's the secretary of war. So what are you doing talking about Massey in Kentucky? Shilling for this other guy, Ed Gellery or whatever. I've never seen anything like it. Because he's a former Navy SEAL, I think. So that's the tie-in. Oh, OK, Gal. That's the tie-in. Yeah, I guess. Still. Still. You're the secretary of war. Are we doing other issues going on right now that he should be worried about? And then going down to Kentucky. Seems like we do. Yeah. Seems like we do. Say this. Because after you've led men in life and death situations, the games that are played inside the Beltway start looking pretty small. Yeah. Now contrast that with what we've gotten from Tom Massey. What have we got? At some point, being against everything becomes an excuse for accomplishing nothing. Oh, shut up. At some point, constant obstruction is not leadership. It's just commentary. Oh my. It's obstruction. Stop. President Trump does not need more people in Washington who are trying to make a point, especially from his own party. He needs people willing to help him win, to vote with him when it matters the most. And too often, Thomas Massey is acted like his job is to stand apart from the movement that President Trump leads instead of strengthening it. When President Trump needs backup, Massey wants to debate process. When the movement needs unity, especially at the biggest moments, Massey is willing to vote with Democrats. When conservatives are fighting the most radical left in American history, too often Massey's instinct is to throw elbows at fellow Republicans, instead of the people who are destroying our country. And what are you doing right now? It's Pete. What are you doing right now? You're attacking a Republican. You're standing in their way and it's President Trump. I can't take it. I can't take it. All right. All right. I got it. It's just annoying to me that President Trump would roll Pete has stuff out for that. It's amazing. Thomas Massey is a good man. Sure is, but he's gotten on the wrong side of the president. He has definitely gotten on the wrong side of the president. They're trying to end his political career and they might. And they very well may do it. Yeah, they very well may do it. 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 fix 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 slash back. That's supershort.com slash back. Paid for by SuperShort Insurance Agency LLC, a licensed insurance agency. It's Pat Gray and Jeff Fisher from Pat Gray Unleashed, which you can hear immediately before this show. Blaze Radio and Television Network. Fill in in for Glenn this week. All right. So I wanted to find out how many times Thomas Massie, because he's public enemy number one for the president. And to the point where he even sent Pete Hague Seth down to Kentucky to campaign for the other guy. So their big primary election is today. And Thomas Massie has displeased the president. How did he become public enemy number one? How many times has he voted against Donald Trump? Is it a hundred? Is it? Well, I asked, I asked Grock. Probably on the low side. Is it more like a thousand? I asked Grock how many times has Massie voted against Trump? It's like 55,000 times, right? Thomas Massie, according to Grock. According to Grock. Republican Kentucky has voted against Trump or Trump backed positions, roughly 9% of the time. 9% of the time. Yeah. So 91% of the time, he's with him. That's correct. But high profile examples of him voting against was the one beautiful bill. First and foremost. Yeah. And the Trump backed position that he also went against was that Massie pushed for the Epstein files. Yeah. I wonder if that's included. And he also dig a little bit deeper into the Grock post here. It talks about how Massie broke with the GOP and Trump on dozens of votes. So. Dozens of votes. Yeah, that's what. Well, you know, Massie doesn't vote for debt. He's just got, he's got a thing. And that's what that would be. Yeah. Yeah. He won't vote for debt. Yeah. That's what that would be. He wants a balanced budget. I think that's a pretty good idea. You know. It's a cute little thought. Americans have to balance the budget. No, we don't. It's adorable. No, we don't. No. You talked about that yesterday. Yes, we did. You're going with the federal government plan where you just keep spending and you don't worry about a budget. Just don't worry about it. Because if you don't have a budget, you don't know when to stop spending. So just keep spending until, you know, you feel like you could stop and maybe you never feel like you're going to stop. Keep, keep white envelope comes in the mail. Don't open it. Don't open it. Didn't open it. He didn't get it. Really? Yeah. All right. What if a certified mail situation arrives at your doorstep? Here's the thing. Don't answer the door. Don't answer the door. Okay. All right. They leave their cute little stickers. Never got it. They blew away. Never got it. Blew away. All right. And that's working out for you pretty well. Is it? Working out perfectly. Okay. Working out perfectly. It's working out for the federal government too. I know. I think they have that I don't as a way to print money like we talked about yesterday. That's right. I have to find a new way to print money. I think you'll probably have a problem before you reach $39 trillion in debt. Yeah. That's for sure. I'd like the federal government. That's for sure. Yeah. Yeah. So that's a good plan though. Anyway, Massey, you know, look, I just, I like Thomas Massey. Maybe he's a terrible person. I never saw it. I never saw it from the man. Yeah. Maybe. You know, I just, I don't, it's a, it's because he's a, fiscal conservative hardliner. And so we don't like him. And I disagree with that, but that's okay. Yeah. That's okay. I mean, we're not going to agree with everything, with this president or any president, probably, but I think this is a kind of a, it's kind of a big issue. I mean, we're going to have a hard time holding on to the house and the Senate as it is, without losing incumbents who are, who are good conservatives. He's done a great, I hope, I hope, Kentuckians realize what a great job he's done for them. Yeah. And he did vote against the big, beautiful bill. That's the one we keep hearing about, because that really pissed off the president. One of only two Republicans to do so. Who was the other one? Was it Rand Paul in the Senate? Probably, but I don't remember. I don't know. I don't know. Those are the two fiscal people. Yeah. Probably. Who still care about debt. There's very few of them. You know, it's an endangered species. That's for sure. You talking about the Hawaiian monk seal. It's endangered in Hawaii so much so that you can't throw rocks at it. Right. Fiscal Republicans who are conservative, that's even the wilder. That's more of a wilder. They are the Hawaiian monk seal. There's a grand total of maybe two in office. We can't lose them. No. But we might lose one today. He's eight points behind, at least in the poll. That latest poll, yeah. So, I don't know. We'll see. Also, there was a massive explosion over the weekend in Jerusalem. This was a really weird event because it was a pre-planned experiment where there was a state-owned defense firm. Yeah, it was a defense contractor, right? They just blew something up. I don't know what they were testing. But it rattled the residents around there because, Sure. I don't know. They're in a war right now. They've been attacked with missiles. It was a big explosion, too. Huge. Yeah. It was gigantic. Yeah. If you saw any of the coverage of what people recorded, that looked really bad. It did. And you would think that it was more than what they said. Yeah, you would. But the residents had absolutely no warning about it. You would think, again, they're in a war with Iran right now. Hey, we're going to test explosives. Hey, we're going to test something. So, don't worry about it. Don't panic. Don't freak out. It's just us testing explosions for some reason. I don't know why, but. You got to test them. How do you know they work? Uh, how do you know? You don't. So, the statement went, something like, well, it was a preplanned experiment that was carried out according to plan, and we let the authorities know. Well, why didn't you tell everybody? Why didn't you publicly mention it? Yeah. And they said they might do that in the future. So, I think that's, uh... Oh, okay. Well, thank you. I think that's probably a good idea. Thank you. You know, from here on out, maybe a good safety tip would be let the neighbors know that an explosion is coming. You could check with the HOA, make sure it's okay. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Something like that. I mean, usually you would tell the HOA, because a lot of them, they get pissed. Holy cow. I mean, the HOA couldn't stand the crack in our driveway. Ha! You know how mad they would be? They demanded we fix that. You imagine if I was blowing stuff up in my backyard? Without telling anyone. Even if it was pre... I mean, even if it was pre-planned. I mean, if it wasn't pre-planned, at least you'd have that as an excuse. Right. But this was. Yeah. So... Also, a man from Georgia was arrested for allegedly making graphic threats against Kristi Noem, the former head of Homeland Security, and Pam Bondi, former U.S. Attorney General. Now, both of them are out of office now, and they're still getting threats. He made the threats on the... on X or Twitter, whatever you like to call it. And so that happened in April, according to federal prosecutors. So he was arrested and ordered to wear an electronic tracking device while out on bond. So they let him out. I mean, listen to some of these threats to Kristi Noem, and he threatened to kill Pam Bondi. He said, I will stab your eyes out with a dull knife. I will blow your esophagus out the back of your neck with a 12-gauge slug. And we will put your head on a stake. He's just funnin'. He's just funnin'. Wow. He didn't mean nothin' by it. So they let him out. So they let him out. Has he gone now, or is he still... Okay, still good. He's still good. He's out. He's out. But they did give him an ankle bracelet. Good. Well, I read a story the other day where I... This guy's in Georgia. The story was talking about how many people with ankle bracelets are missing. It was quite a lot. This was in Chicago. That's the thing. It was in Cook County. Over 200. It was like 240 or something. And I thought, you know that... So they're just cutting them off. It might be something we should look into. Yeah. So hopefully we'll know where this guy is, because I don't want him at Kristi's house or Pam's. There was another guy... I've got more stories of the threats for this administration. But there was another guy, a Texas guy, that just cut off his ankle bracelet, flew to Canada, then flew to Italy, and wanted to claim asylum, because he's being tried for the murder of his wife. Oh, wow. But I mean, we keep a better... I mean, keep a better eye on these people. You think? Just a thought. What? Kind of picky, aren't you? Yeah, well, the guy is accused of murdering his wife. So perhaps, you know, I don't know, maybe you don't let him leave. Are they going to give him asylum in Italy? No, I don't think so. That you didn't get there? I don't think he got it yet. I'm not sure. Okay. I'm not sure about that. I just know that he cut off the ankle bracelet, went to Canada, flew to Italy. And they sent... I think he only applied for... He only said he was going to apply for asylum is because they caught him. You know, it was like they... Oh. Oh, he's in Italy. You know, it's so... He was like, hey, you know, asylum. That's what it sounded like. But I don't... I don't know, maybe... Or I don't know if we're going to get him back into the U.S. to try him. I hope so. I hope so. He did it. And if he did what he's accused of doing, yeah, he needs to be back here. Yeah, we do frown on that. But we also have the Florida man that's accused of repeated threats to assassinate Trump, Rubio and Bondi. I mean, we have the... Don't even forget about the stupid Mark Hamill Trump dead post. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, I was... That wasn't dead. I didn't mean that. It's completely opposite. I thought it was his life. What? His explanation didn't even make sense. No, it didn't. And then we still have Cole Allen, right? Who committed... Who's... He said not guilty, but the White House Correspondents dinner shooter. So, I mean, we have that guy. And we have him on video, but he's not guilty. We do. That's interesting. Hey, you're not guilty until proven guilty in the court of law. You know, when you really look at the slow motion video footage of that, it does look like... We were initially told only one of the Secret Service agents was firing. I think we're still being told that. I think that there were at least two, maybe three agents firing. I thought so too. I mean, I think we're still being told that the only guy that fired was the CIA guy that got shot. Right? And he's the only one that fired. And you watch that video, I don't think that's true. I don't either. I don't either. Because a guy saw him before that person that you're talking about and pulled his gun, was pointing it right at him. I assume he was shooting because the guy was running toward the banquet hall. In fact, to me, it looked like that he could have been the one to shoot that have shot the CIA guy. It's possible. Or I mean, the Secret Service guy. I think it's possible. Instead of the Cole Porter. But, you know, obviously, I have to believe what they're telling me. Do you? Yeah, you have to. But, you know, just I don't know what to make of that situation. No, I don't either. And we've never seen, as long as we're going to go ahead and beat this horse, we've never seen footage from the hallway all the way back looking toward. No, we have not. You're telling me we don't have footage of that? That's what I'm telling you. We don't have footage of that. Okay. No. All right. I have to believe what they're telling. So don't worry about it. All right. Never mind. Don't worry about it. Sorry. All right.888-727-BECK. Faith. Family. A full work day. That's not fascist. That's just Tuesday. More Glenn Beck. Straight ahead.

I just got off the phone with the president. Donald Trump. Yeah. Hey, he just called you. He told me. I called him. Oh, okay. I called him. All right. He was pretty busy. I tried to get him to come on. He was like, no, I can't come on. So, oh, wow. Okay, whatever. No, it's probably just as well. We only have a couple minutes left. Well, I mean, we'd be able to extend the satellite time, I'm guessing, if it was the president. But that's just me. He said that he's going to tell us who he's endorsing today in the John Cornyn, Ken Paxson race at 1130 Central or Eastern Central time. So, 1230 Eastern. So, like a little over half an hour from now. We're off the air. So, we're going to do it here. Yeah. Okay. And he wouldn't do it. Wow, dang it. I know. But you just got off the phone with him. Did you not hear me say goodbye to him? No, I did hear you say goodbye. Okay. So, okay. So, there's going to be an endorsement in the Cornyn Paxson race. That's what the man told me. Yeah. Which is one week from today. And we just mentioned on my show earlier that he hadn't made that endorsement. And now you just found out from him that he's going to do it. Yeah. I'm guessing. I know. John Cornyn. I know. Because you know, Cornyn has been, oh, just begging for that. Yeah, he has. I'll see. And pretending like he's all about Donald Trump. Absolutely. Which he isn't. Absolutely. You know, one thing we didn't get to today either is an MSNOW. They were baffled. Baffled. That one of our people, a congressman, in fact, the head of Congress, um, yeah, Mike Johnson. Yeah, he would, he would mention God and the Constitution. God would be over the Constitution at the Rededication 250 Prayer Service this weekend. Look at this baffled. It's a paving tour. Unbelievable. Listen to her. She's so indignant about it. Listen to it from Mike Johnson declaring that our rights do not derive from government. They come from you, our creator and Heavenly Father. Is this him putting God over the Declaration of Independence? How dare he. Okay. What? Well, you know, I actually think that that idea is not wholly uncommon. I mean, the idea that we have certain, maybe the legal rights that come from God. Too bad we don't have time for the rest of his comments, but. Dang it. Oh, come on. Yeah, I know. Extend the time. I know. What are we doing? Maybe tomorrow. Turn the recede back on. But it's not wholly uncommon. Since the founders set up the country that way. No, it's not wholly uncommon. It fits right in with his American experiment.
