Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program. Hello, America. Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. I didn't sense a lot of joy coming from Kamala yesterday. I think all of her joy had been lost.

She's so joyful. She's been drinking up of the joy. And don't let anybody walk all over your joy. That's not right. I think Bret Baier walked all over her joy. However, I can tell you exactly the moment that Kamala Harris wanted it.

Everybody is saying today, I can't believe her handlers let her do that. I can because I know exactly why she did it. And I'll show it to you in just a couple of seconds.

Oh, wow. Was that interesting? The Fox News Kamala Harris debate is over.

Was bizarre. And it was not a debate. Yeah, not a debate. An interview. An interview. It did at times feel like a debate. It did. There was a lot of talking over each other. There was a lot of. Anger. A lot of filibustering. Yeah. Going on. So let me just tell you what happened with Brett Baer. He was promised an hour with Kamala. And then they called, I think, yesterday, maybe the day before, and said, it's only going to be a half an hour.

And then they got a call when the half hour is supposed to start. We're going to be about 15 minutes late. Now, there is no reason that what was more important for her to do. OK, is there something else that she was doing that was like more important than the Fox News interview? I can't think of one.

I mean, if I were one of her aides, though, I would be popping the tires to make her late. It was all planned. It was absolutely. It was all planned. And she was part of it. Why do you think that? Because they needed to throw Brett off. Now, they walked in just at the time because it was supposed to be live to tape, not live, live to tape.

So they could not have time to reset during commercials. Yeah, and people don't always understand that terminology. But that's just basically like it's a live interview. It's just recorded, and then you play the whole thing back as is. No edits. There's nothing like that. Okay, so it's live to tape, and it was recorded right before the show. So you need time to take that recording. It's not like the old days where you take the tape and it's...

Okay. You have to ingest it into the right. I don't even know the right system to be able to play it back. Okay. And that takes time because it's rendering. So they were at the point to where we're not going to be able to render this fast enough to,

If she doesn't show up in like the next two minutes, okay, that's when she shows up. So they knew exactly what they were doing. She shows up and now Brett is having to edit all of the questions that he had. I mean, it takes time to put an interview together. So he has to edit. Now, which ones do I do? Because I'm not going to have time.

He knows also that they say she's only got 20 minutes. So now they've cut an hour down to a half hour, then down to 20 minutes, and he's flustered. So they're trying to get him to be completely flustered. He's not. He does a great professional job. However, this is why they did this. He has to be aggressive because she filibusters.

And I've done I've done interviews with Donald Trump before where you just can't get a word in edgewise. 20 minutes, I can ask him one to two questions and you're just not going to get anything. If he doesn't want to give you anything or if he's excited about one thing, he's just going to go and you cannot shoehorn your way in. It's why if you listen to my interviews with Donald Trump, you always hear me go. Yeah, but and I'm doing that.

not to interrupt him, but to signal to him, we got to move on to the next thing. Okay. And you can do that in person, but not over the phone. You have to make that sound. So he knows I got another question for you. Well, she knew he would have lots of follow-up questions. And so she was going to filibuster and she started hostile, immediately hostile. Now I'm going to show you, I'm going to jump to the whole reason why she did this.

Don't pay attention to anything else that she said. It's all really important for you to know. But she knows the media is in her back pocket. She knows she has to shore up her own voters. She's on the verge of losing the people that will vote for her.

But they're starting to be like, you know what? She's just a limp noodle. There's nothing to her. It's, you know, oh, I've got a great Indy car with no engine or tires. Ain't going to win. All right. So she had to speak not to the Fox audience. She knows she's not going to get them. She doesn't care.

We were all being used for her campaign. For this one moment, let me see here. It is, I believe, cut 24. He has talked about locking people up because they disagree with him. This is a democracy. And in a democracy, the president of the United States, in the United States of America, should be willing to be able to handle this.

criticism without saying he'd lock people up for doing it. And this is what is at stake, which is why you have someone like the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff saying what Mark Milley has said about Donald Trump being a threat to the United States of America. Got it. Got it. She needed to shore up her own people.

And her own people believe that Donald Trump is a threat and they needed to show she's tough as nails. She knows and she's not afraid of anybody. And this is a democracy and a democracy. A president cannot act like that. This is the most angry she got. And it really came out of nowhere. Okay. Came out of nowhere. Okay.

This was the moment she was looking for. It didn't matter what the question was. That's why she kept making it about Donald Trump. She kept going to Donald Trump and it wouldn't fit anywhere. It fit right here. Do it. You watch. That's the clip that's going to be seen by progressives and those on the left. So it was a sort of a scripted takedown in her mind of Trump. He's bad for it's,

you know, harkens back to the approach of Biden, right? Which was standing in front of the revenge of the Sith wall and yelling about how bad he is about democracy. Because there are those who, she cannot lose the ones who are passionate against Donald Trump. She has to have that rage that they have spent

Eight years, 12 years on. They've spent all this time and money and energy building up that rage. They need to kindle that rage here in the last few weeks because people are like, I don't even know if I'm going to go and vote. He's a danger to democracy. And I have the will to stop it. Because joy does not make you vote. Nope. Right? That's not how that works. Nope. Fear. Fear.

Fear and vengeance, especially in an election like this, in which you have basically two candidates, Donald Trump and not Donald Trump. Exactly right. Like they need to come up with. They're realizing that's their only source of strength. That's why she doesn't say what she's going to do. She says, I'm not Joe Biden and I'm not Donald Trump. OK, but what are you? This is this is you can tell who the author of this whole thing is. It's Barack Obama.

Barack Obama, I'm hoping change. What the hell does that even mean? We're going to change. We got hope. We're going to move forward. Yes, we can. What the hell is that? That's not a policy. But that strikes me more as similar to the joy approach, right? Like sort of this...

Generally positive term that doesn't mean anything. He could pull it off because he had that speech. Remember? Yeah. Everybody watched that speech and went, oh man, he's great. That speech at the DNC. Not everybody. Well, not everybody, but everybody who watched it went, this guy could be president of the United States. Everybody said that. And so he was exciting. He was new. He was, he embodied change. He's the first black president. Okay. So he could pull that off.

She can't pull that off. No, she's angry. She's mean. Her staff doesn't like her. She's unlikable. She's unlikable. So this is just about hope and change. This is about joy and not Donald Trump, not Joe Biden, not Donald Trump. Full of joy. I'll stop him. And I'm going to give you free stuff. How? What? What is that? What are you doing?

Somebody who cannot articulate in an interview, she kept saying this is very carefully worded.

Every time she tries to answer a question, it is, I will follow the law. I thought the same. What a bizarre response. Oh, no. Crafty. Oh, very brilliant. But I mean, in reality, it's not. It's, of course, you're going to fall. What do you mean? Were we supposed to expect you weren't going to follow the law? But who's going to make the laws? Right.

Congress doesn't make the law anymore. The administrative state makes the laws so she can change the laws into anything she wants.

She can go... If she changes the Supreme Court, she can change any law she wants. Yeah. I'll follow the law. Yep. And the law will bend to whatever I want. Exactly right. Which is, of course, what is so ridiculous about this? Because, you know, like, one of the ways she did this, and she did do it several times, but one of them was on transgender surgery for prisoners. Yeah. Do we have that clip? I think we do. Yeah, we do. Okay. Should we listen to that clip? Yeah, go ahead. Play that. Every transgender...

inmate in the prison system would have access. So are you still in support of using taxpayer dollars to help prison inmates or detained illegal aliens to transition to another gender? I will follow the law and it's a law that Donald Trump actually followed. You're probably familiar with now it's a public report that under Donald Trump's administration these surgeries were available to on a medical necessity basis.

to people in the federal prison system and I think frankly that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit of like throwing you know stones when you're living in a glass house. The Trump aides say that he never advocated for that prison policy and no gender transition

Well, you know what? You've got to take responsibility for what happened in your administration. Yeah, no surgeries happened in his presidency. So would you still advocate for using taxpayer dollars for gender reassignment surgeries? I will follow the law, just as I think Donald Trump would say he did. You would have a say as president. Like I said, I think he spent $20 million on those ads, trying to create a sense of fear in the voters because he actually has no plan

In this election that is about focusing on the needs of the American people. And saying exactly what she's going to do.

You have a say in the law. She doesn't say yes, but that's why she's saying I'll follow the law. And the law already says, but he didn't use that. No surgeries happened. Right. Will you advocate? He's not advocating for it. Will you advocate for that? Right. What is you're supposed to be the candidate of change? Yeah. And your answer is I will follow the law.

what do you want the law to change to? That's what we're talking about. Yes. Right. The whole point of a presidential campaign, she wants to change a zillion laws, right? That's the whole point. What do you want the law to be? And by the way, that's a masterclass by Brett Baer there because he asked her the question. He knows where she's going to go with it, which is to blame Donald Trump. He's already got her cut off at the pass, knowing the answer that there were no transgender surgeries and then keeps pushing back on her when he says you have a say in the law.

I would have preferred that he kept going. Of course, they cut off half of the interview time. Yeah, they couldn't. He expressed his frustration afterwards that, you know, I couldn't do anything with 20 minutes. And you can't with 20 minutes. And they had... And I would have made a different choice, but I'm...

I'm, I'm, I'm, you know, more of a renegade. He's an actual journalist. I'm not. He said four people that were in her entourage for we're standing off camera behind one of the cameras looking right at Brett, giving him the wrap up sign. We got to go. It's over. Wrap it up. Wrap it up. I would have said, Miss Vice President, you were, you were 15 minutes late for

You've cut our interview to 20 minutes. It was supposed to be an hour. Now it's 30. And can you turn that camera around? Will you show those White House people that are now wrapping this up, telling me to wrap this up?

Do you have something more important to do than to talk to the American people? Oh, yeah. I mean, I would have turned it around on them so hard. He didn't. And I'm getting the sign that we have to wrap up. So let me tell you about Relief Factor. See, you would bend. You'd bend immediately. Yes. Money. Oh, are you kidding me? Relief Factor. Are you living with frequent and debilitating pain? If so, what would you do to be free of it? Living with pain, lonely existence. I know.

So many people have gone through this. I've gone through this. I don't know what your pain is. Your pain level is probably worse than mine ever was. But if you're one of the people that are living in pain all the time, please just try Relief Factor. You won't have to spend very much at all to find out if it'll work for you. Just try it for three weeks. Take it as directed for three weeks. If you don't see any improvement, stop taking it. You probably won't see anything.

Their three-week quick start is only $19.95, and 70% of the people who try it go on to order more month after month. It's relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com. 1-800-4-RELIEF. 1-800, the number 4, RELIEF. 10 seconds, station ID. All righty then. So, kind of interesting what happened yesterday. There's a lot more that we should probably get into. Kamala...

In one of the worst moments, Bret Baier brings up the murdering illegals that were let in. Listen to this exchange. Cut 19.

Jocelyn Nungary, Rachel Morin, Lakin Riley, they are young women who were brutally assaulted and killed by some of the men who were released at the beginning of the administration, well before a negotiated bipartisan bill. Former President Clinton actually referred to Lakin Riley Sunday campaigning for you in Georgia saying if those men had been properly vetted, Lakin Riley probably would not have been killed. So if it wouldn't have happened, this is well before any negotiation.

This is well before Donald Trump got involved in the politics. This is a specific policy decision by your administration to release these men into the country. So what I'm saying to you, do you owe those families an apology? Let me just say, first of all, those are tragic cases. There's no question about that. There is no question about that. Just don't follow Oothby. And I can't imagine...

The pain that the families of those victims have experienced. So now apologize. Don't say a loss that should not have occurred. Right. Don't say but. So that is true. Yes. It is also true that if a border security had actually been passed nine months ago, it would be nine months later.

that we would have had more border agents at the border, more support for the folks who are working around the clock, trying to hold it all together to ensure that no future harm would occur. And this election in 20 days...

will determine whether we have a president of the United States who actually cares more about fixing a problem even if it is not to their political advantage in an election because there was a solution, Brett. No. Madam Vice President, it was a policy decision in the early part of your administration.

So she wouldn't. She just won't answer it. And by the way, notice that she's always talking about comprehensive immigration reform. She never talks about the border. She talks about comprehensive. Our system is broken. Yes, we all agree with that. But the border policy you broke.

That's why we're having these problems. You guys broke the border. We all know that. So don't talk to me about comprehensive because that's something people have been trying to do for 50 years and it won't happen because we're so far apart. You want amnesty. No, you wanted 6,000 people still to be able to come across the border every day. No, it's it. This is the biggest con here.

I mean, lie after lie after lie. And just to watch that happen where she he he specifically picks cases that she can't use this border policy. I know, by the way, there is a zero percent chance she will actually pursue when she's president of the United States. She's just acting like they all talk about how Donald Trump, all he wanted out of this was a talking point for the election. That's all this is.

She's doing it. She's doing the exact same thing she's accusing Donald Trump of. That's why they introduced that bill, knowing that the Republicans would never go for it. They'd never go for it. So they had that talking point. And they will. She'll get in and she'll say, see, they're they're standing in the way again. I hope the Republicans who went along with it realize that now. I hope they realize how they were part of that. Yep. Yeah. Maybe unwillingly, but they were. All right. More in a minute.

Glenn Beck. We've woken up to a potential nightmare.

So good. We were just going to talk about what the FBI is doing. They released in footnotes a change to the the crime stats, a massive change to crime stats. And you're looking at Kamala Harris. They're lying over and over and over again about Donald Trump. And people will say, well, Donald Trump lies, too.

I want you to know there are three types of lies. This is from your candidate should avoid three types of lies. The 10 commandment is thou shalt not bear false witness. Okay. Your candidate should not, should avoid these three types of lies. The easiest way to know if your candidates are honest is to look for the lies they tell and the way they tell them. There are three main types of lies, commission, omission, and paltering. So, uh,

Commission is outright lying. Deleting facts that are important, like CBS seems to be doing, is also another form of lie. And paltering, paltering is not as common as a lie, but it is the slipperiest one because paltering is using a series of truthful statements to say something false. Okay.

So how do you find, because you have to vote for one of these two people. So how do I balance? Because a lot of people say, well, they both lie. Yeah. All right. So let's do this. According to this, what, Ten Commandments in Voting Book,

Candidates should be honest. This is already a big ask. Chances are your candidates have been dishonest about something at some point. Keep that in mind, though. So has everybody. This is not about perfection. This is intent. Are your candidates trying to mislead you? Is Donald Trump trying to mislead you? I think the answer to that is absolutely no. He's not trying to mislead you. Can you think of a lie he's told? He's...

Well, I guess, well, you know, well, he's got I had more people at that.

at my inauguration. I mean, look. But that's harmless. But still, are they trying to be honest? Are their motives honest and pure? Are their policies backed by their belief? That's one I know for sure. Donald Trump's policies are backed by his belief. Do they follow through on their promises? He has. How often are they dishonest? Okay, I want to show you something.

that this whole system is so corrupt. Fox, I mean, sorry, the FBI has now come out and changed covertly changing the crime stats. Okay. Democratic operatives and the liberal media have claimed that crime is going down, you know, and they show you the FBI data. Well, the FBI has screwed with the numbers. Okay.

The Crime Prevention Research Center reported that the FBI stealthily changed its crime data for 2022, a year in which cities like Phoenix, New York City, and Los Angeles failed to submit any crime data. And then they said, this is a finished report and crime is down. Well, now they say, well, okay, it didn't fall by 2.1%. It's actually...

It's actually up. The 2022 violent crime rate has been updated for inclusion. There were 80,029 more violent crimes, 1,600 more murders, 7,780 more rapes, 33,000 more robberies, and 37,000 more aggravated assaults. Okay, that sounds like a big miss, doesn't it?

But here's where it gets insidious. They just put this in the footnotes. They didn't make a big deal out of it. They continue to mess with the numbers. How many times have they got the unemployment rate wrong? So you get the headlines of we're good. And then a month later, you're like, we're not so good. Okay. They have given the Democrats a talking point on crime is actually down when we all knew if you believe your own eyes and don't listen to the media, you're

You know what's true already. And let me show you how Donald Trump is made to look like a conspiracy theorist or a madman.

and how the media actually helps them do it. This is from The Debate, ABC. Crime is down all over the world except here. Crime here is up and through the roof. Despite their fraudulent statements that they made, crime in this country is through the roof. And we have a new form of crime. It's called migrant crime. And it's happening at levels that nobody thought possible. President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is actually coming down in this country.

Excuse me, the FBI defrauded. They were defrauding statements. They didn't include the worst cities. They didn't include the cities with the worst crime. It was a fraud, just like their number of 818,000 jobs that they said they created turned out to be a fraud.

He was right. And it's notable that it wasn't Kamala Harris fact-checking him on that. It was the moderator doing it. Well, she was making faces like, he's crazy. What is he saying? She just didn't know. Right. Right. But the moderator did know what the line was. And that was a report that was released by the FBI. But it was not complete. And now we know what the result is. This, by the way, is the largest percentage increase that we've ever seen.

Okay. The largest percentage increase that we've ever seen in the last. Yeah. Since they've been releasing these statistics, they have, they have gone up a little bit and corrected by just fraction of percentages. Oh, as far as the correction goes, it's the largest correction. Okay. Got it. Okay. When they have the, the correction, it'll go up just a little bit. It's never done anything like this. This was intentional. Okay.

Again, to give her talking points, you'll notice CBS, another liar, CBS will not release the transcripts of two shows. They will not release the transcripts. You know when they'll release them? If they have to after Donald Trump is elected. Okay. Because they'll be forced to do that. But this is exactly the same thing with the Joe Biden laptop, right?

Nothing to see here, nothing to see here, nothing to see here. Oh, wait, I guess that is true. After the decision has been made, they're holding this for as long as they possibly can get away with it. Why? Because people are voting today. If you had the information that CBS had edited her answer,

and made her look better by pulling an answer from some other question and putting it there, instead of her meandering around in a word salad, would you be less likely to vote for her or more likely to vote for her? Would you trust the media more or less? It's quite remarkable. By the way, here's some good news. The trust in the media is at the lowest ever.

And the trust of the Supreme Court is actually up to be higher than it was before the Dobbs decision. So while they're trashing the Supreme Court, people are looking at that argument and going, I don't think that's true. I have faith in the Supreme Court. It went down and now it's back up. I find that interesting and a little bit inspiring.

Yeah, that is positive. And you get to that point where you watch, I think, people and the media, the way they respond to these things, and you lose faith a little bit. I mean, watching this sort of stuff go on, it's really depressing at times. I was watching that interview last night, the way she's so evasive. It really became...

It really became depressing. But you're talking about the crime stats situation. That was a media firestorm at the time that, you know, he's misquoting because it wasn't just at the debate. This happened several other times. And the fact checking, you have to step in, you have to correct his facts. You know what their spin is now? Why are we talking about 2022 crime statistics? That's way in the past. Mm-hmm.

It's way in the past. Now, it was important a few weeks ago when she was winning debate points because the moderator made Donald Trump look like he was lying. But now we're at the position where it's like, oh, come on, 2022. Let's look to the future. It's the way it is. Every single time. Every single thing they can do. And you're just at that point now where they will do anything to get him out of, to make sure he's not in office. Anything they can do to get Kamala Harris in. We're beyond the part where they're going to report on truth.

And look, I'm as skeptical as anybody on the mainstream media. But like there are times where they will report things and they will check a box here or there to say, no, we covered that. We're not in that period. When you're within a month of the election, they are not even going to try to pretend they're doing journalism anymore. It's over. That period in your life is over.

This is not where we are anymore. They are now going to say anything they can at every single turn to the extent that all they're talking about today in this Brett Baier interview is that he was mean.

Right. Like nothing. You got nothing out of that. The first adversarial interview for and I and I don't even want to I don't even think adversarial is even fair. No, but him coming on this show would be adversarial. Yeah. Her coming on this show, her going on that show is the normal thing candidates do with with journalists. J.D. Vance has done 60 interviews like that. Donald Trump has probably done 15 or 20.

Kamala Harris has done one. And the only thing you could come up with was he was mansplaining. That's it. It's any possibility of actual coverage is over in this period. The mainstream media is not mainstream media anymore. It is government propaganda. It is a arm of the Democratic Party that is doing propaganda. That's all it is.

Next Tuesday, is that the 22nd? Next Tuesday, my book Propaganda Wars comes out. It shows you how to look beyond that to be able to judge which story is true. How do I know a story is true? What do I how do I decipher through all of this bullcrap and what's coming next?

It's Propaganda Wars. It is a really important tool. You can get it now wherever you buy your books. You can order it. It comes out next Tuesday. I've done the book, the audio book, and so you can get that as well. But I would get this in paper. Any book that you ever think is important, you should buy in paper.

You can buy it digitally, but I do two things. I usually listen to the audio book, and if it's worth keeping, I buy it again in paper because things can change overnight. Back in just a second. First...

They always tell you never to bring a knife to a gunfight, and that's true. You know, you bring a gun or a bazooka or whatever it is to get the job done as fast and from a distance. But what they never tell you is, you know, what to bring to a knife fight or a fist fight for that matter, or any situation where there's danger that could maybe be solved without having to resort to lethal force.

Fortunately, Burna has solved this problem. B-Y-R-N-A. It gives you a weapon that has the best of both worlds. It's called the Burna Launcher.

you can't let your retirement dollars become a weapon used against everything you hold dear let constitution wealth be your financial fortress we talk about this with the media right like the you know are you going to support cnn and and abc news and cbs like no you don't do that you maybe watch the blaze right you come up with a decision that aligns with your values but a lot of people don't do that with their investment dollars

and and i in a way it's understandable right like you don't think about that you're just thinking about getting returns you're getting to retirement it's important and it is important right you do need those returns you can't just say oh i'm gonna uh invest in only companies that agree with me and they all lose money that that's not going to work either you need to find a way to make good returns get to your retirement the same way that you could any other way but also have these investments

align with your values divest your money from corporations that hate you right like that makes a lot of sense um the culture war has been being fought for a long time and the more money that goes to these woke companies the the bigger advantage they get in that culture war with constitution wealth you can partner with advisors who truly understand your conservative patriotic values because honestly you know who would you want to

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. I got to tell you, how much time do I have here? Two minutes. Two minutes.

Last night I did a show on the FDA and the food industry and Big Pharma and how they're paid. Did you know the FDA, how that works, Stu, that Big Food pays, I don't remember what it was, 58 or 48% of the bills at FDA is paid by Big Food itself.

48% of their budget. There's like a fee that is associated essentially for FDA approval. Right. So what they do is they say, all right, we want to use these ingredients. And they go to the FDA and they say, well, you need to do a study on it. So the food company hires their own people to do a study on it.

And then they go to the FDA and hand them that. FDA doesn't do a study. They hand the study from the food company and they say, okay, good. Stamp of approval. And they are then paid. The FDA is paid for giving the stamp, but they give the stamp for, they are paid for every batch that the food companies make. Okay. So it has to be continually renewed for a new batch. Okay.

It's insane. It's bribery. The FDA is worthless. Worthless. I mean, we have our disagreements on this topic here and there, but like the FDA is pointless. You know, you will go through your entire life almost definitely never consuming a piece of food that the FDA has even visually inspected. I know.

I know. People think, oh, they're looking at every egg I eat. No, they're not. Even visually inspecting it, that's not what they're doing. They're checking occasional things here and there. The FDA is worthless to me. I have no love for them. No. The market does a good job with it, honestly, in my view. I think the other 40% that's remaining, there's a little bit of government funding for the FDA, but the other comes from pharmaceutical companies.

It's like, why? How do you expect people to be watchdogs when they're paying your salary? Yeah. I mean, we saw problems with that with the ratings agencies going back to 2008. Yeah. Right. Like that was exactly the same type of setup. It's not a good setup. No, not a good setup. We have somebody really incredible on next. She was on just for a few minutes last night. It's Dr. Casey. Dr. Casey. What's her last name?

Uh, means Dr. Casey means she's fantastic on food. Next, the Glenn Beck program. All right. Let me tell you about home title lock. Uh, I'll tell you about Graceland. This is of course where the Elvis home, you know, one that maybe you, you were familiar with, apparently like whatever, you know, Nigerian scammers that were trying to steal the home. Didn't really realize the prominence of this particular property when they tried to steal it. Uh,

Whoever it was eventually had to give up because it got into the media. But it had gotten to a point where the estate had lost control of this house and they had to go to court to get their control of it back. This is because of home title fraud. Basically, a cyber scammer winds up taking the documents and fraudulently filling them out as if basically you sold your home to the scammers. The scammers that have control of the home, they can go to banks, they can get loans against

that equity, they can do all sorts of things that wind up burning you in the end. And you're stuck with a massive legal thing where you're going to court and hoping, just hoping and praying that somebody covers your story. Well, you might not be able to depend on that.

Hello, America. Last night on Blaze TV, I did a special Make America Healthy Again, the chemicals poisoning your food exposed. It's pretty shocking when you see how the FDA works and how things are approved and how dangerous it all seems to be. It

It aired yesterday for Blaze TV subscribers, and it will premiere on my YouTube channel tonight at 6 p.m. Eastern, youtube.com forward slash Glenn Beck. Well, I had Dr. Casey Means and her brother, Callie, on television, and...

You might have seen them around. They've been on Joe Rogan. But there is something happening in America. And it's strangely happening with the right. It's happening with the Donald Trump movement, a guy who loves McDonald's. But we all are beginning to believe there is something really dramatically wrong because we're seeing it. Our kids are getting sicker and sicker. Is the food that we eat poisoning us? Dr. Casey Means joins me.

in 60 seconds. First, if you're pro-life, there are two main things you need to do when it comes to the abortion issue. One, keep that moral position in mind when you're helping the Republic choose the next leader. Two, if you can, help support an organization that is working to stop abortion by working on the hearts and minds of people.

I am so proud to partner with Preborn. Every day they sponsor free ultrasounds for women as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born. They don't just advocate for the baby's life and then forget about them once they're born. Two years after birth. And this helps the mom because she's twice as likely to choose life if she sees and hears the heartbeat. And after that...

The other valid excuse for so many is, "I don't have any support. Nobody is supporting me. I can't do this by myself."

And that's why Preborn is there for them in every way. I mean, the things they do, they're just unbelievable because they care about the mom and the baby. One ultrasound is $28. Five ultrasounds is $140. To donate securely, just dial pound 250, say the keyword baby. That's pound 250, keyword baby. Or go to preborn.com slash Beck. Preborn.com slash Beck.

Dr. Casey Means is with us. He's Levels' chief medical officer and co-founder and the co-author of the book, Good Energy. Welcome, Casey. How are you? Great to be here. I'm wonderful. How are you? Good morning. I am good. You know, I'm new to this, and it's funny because I was reading some of the stuff that you have written about...

maybe seven, eight years ago, I became very, very sick with some kind of chronic disease. And every doctor I went to, they would describe the symptoms and they, every single one said, you're being poisoned.

And I said, well, I don't think I am. I mean, you know, we're keeping tabs on George Soros. I think I'm not being poisoned. And every single one said poison. And we did all of the stuff. And I wasn't. I didn't have, you know, heavy metals or anything else. And I thought in reading your stuff, maybe that is just in a completely different way. Maybe we're all being poisoned a little bit at a time.

You know, I'm sorry you had to go through that, but I think so many people in America are sort of feeling something like this. We're all trying really hard to be healthy. We're going to the doctor's visits. We're going to all the specialist's office. And yet, somehow, Americans don't feel very good, and we're getting very, very sick. And

The statistics in American health, as you've probably seen in some headlines, although it's not being talked about enough, it's not very good. Life expectancy in America is actually, it's been going down for the past several years. We're living in,

eight years less in America as our friends in Japan and Sweden, even though we spend almost twice as much as any other country in the entire world on health care. So it makes you scratch your head a little bit. It's not like we're prescribing enough medications. We prescribe 20%.

221 million statin prescriptions per year, and yet heart disease is still the number one cause of death in the United States, taking almost a million lives per year. So it's not for a lack of medication. It's not for a lack of spending. So what is it? Then you get to the question of things like, are we being poisoned? And, you know, it's not to be alarmist, but the U.S. does allow

10,000 chemicals in our food system, whereas other countries allow vastly fewer than this, allow only about 400 in Europe. And you can actually just go to the FDA website and see the chemicals that are allowed in our food system. And it kind of makes you shudder. Things like acetone, benzene, these are allowed in our food, 10,000 of these. And there is not a strong push to have these be

proved as safe before they go into our food system. That was one of the things that really amazed me is if you want one of these things approved in the food, you as the food maker have to hire a research team, do your own research, then present that to the FDA while you're paying them for

Right.

There's a program called GRAS, which is generally recognized as safe. And the FDA uses this program. It is a self-designation on the part of a company. It is a process that allows a company or an individual to independently determine that a food ingredient is safe for its intended use. Doesn't that seem a little strange that the company would be the one to have to do this?

Let's just take an example here. Let's say you're creating a product in the United States, like a drink, and you want to have that drink be strawberry flavored. It is not cheap to grow a bunch of strawberries and extract strawberry extract or strawberry juice from those products. That's very expensive and time intensive. You could quite literally call up a

a scientist, a food chemist, a food chemical company and say, I need a molecule synthesized that tastes like strawberry. It doesn't really matter what that molecule is. And we're going to put that in our food. Much cheaper, much easier. And the onus is on the customer.

company to say that it is safe. So you can then have that in the food system for years and it may be causing health effects. But if you think about it, it's very hard to prove that one chemical is causing issues in kids. And so they get away with a lot. I just talked about food dyes last night. That's, that's all we covered was just one. And it said that the studies have to show that the amount in, let's say Jell-O,

is not going to be harmful, at least if they don't eat too much of it over their lifetime. But does the research include how many times that dye is used in every other product?

Or do they just be not? It's crazy. Glenn, you've nailed it. So that's one chemical, which is in might be in 15 foods kids are eating. It's in their fruit loops. You know, let's talk about like Red 40, which is getting a lot of attention this week because history was

made on Tuesday of this week in Battle Creek, Michigan, where Vani Hari and several other food advocates, doctors, pediatricians went to go fight Kellogg's about Red 40 because the science is extremely clear. Red 40 is causing attention disorders in children. The research literature, peer-reviewed studies is showing this. We've got ADHD in children skyrocketing and behavioral issues. We have a chemical in so much of their food that we know is linked to it. And Red 40 is

And these other food dyes, they are derived from what? From oil petroleum. These are crude oil that are going to our kids' bodies. They also contain benzene, which is a known carcinogen. And Kellogg's and other food companies are not taking that out of foods, even though the exact same products these companies like Kellogg's sell in Europe are

They have a different formulation because these chemicals are banned in Europe. So American companies are serving American children foods that have chemicals that are banned in other countries that we know are causing issues like attention disorders and maybe causing cancer. And of course, we have young adult cancer skyrocketing in the U.S., up 79% in the past 10 years.

So these foods, this is one chemical we're talking about, Glenn, out of 10,000. And of course, the way these are studied, we can say, oh, the average kid eating one bowl of fruit looks a day. This isn't going to cause a problem. But what about the Skittles? What about the fruit roll-ups? What about the red food coloring on the cake they're eating in class? It's adding up, right?

And it's unbelievable how sneaky the companies are about this. It was so interesting. I was actually the night before Kelly and I did Joe Rogan last week, we were at a steakhouse and I got a, I got a mocktail. I got a no groany sort of like a non-alcoholic Negroni. And I, right after I drank the drink, I was actually feeling really off. And so I looked up the ingredients of what was in this drink and I saw that

under the ingredients for this aperitif that was in it called Giffard Aperitif Bitter, there was an ingredient called E-129. And I thought, what the hell is E-129? What did I just put in my body? So I Google it. It's Red 40. It's another name for Red 40. So they're even actually changing the name on different packages so you don't know how much you are getting. This is the tip of the iceberg of the issue, what we're talking about here.

I'm just because I lived at the time where they started to ban cigarette ads on television. I remember that. I remember seeing, you know, my doctor recommends that I smoke filtered camels. It's like your doctor recommends that.

And I remember the game that was played. And then in the 80s and the 90s, where big tobacco came under scrutiny, it took forever to get to the point to where you're like, wow, they knew this forever and were making things more addictive. Well, those people, R.J.R. Reynolds and others, went and they bought our food companies. That's right. And...

Why wouldn't they? I mean, here's here's one study said the tobacco company owned food manufacturers focus on, quote, the rise of hyper palatable foods, which contain potent combinations of fat, sodium, sugar and other additives that drive people to crave and overeat them. So they're doing the same thing they were doing with cigarettes.

That's exactly right. So some of the largest mergers in American history up until the 1980s were exactly as you say, they were cigarette companies, which were falling out of favor in American culture, because doctors and scientists finally woke up to these being lethal. They bought cigarettes.

And this is exactly when we saw the stark rise in ultra-processed foods as a percentage of our diet. Now, 67% of all calories we are eating in the United States is ultra-processed food. This is non-food, chemical substance essentially made by scientists and factories that are

look like food but are actually made of a combination of chemicals um and that's now almost 70 of american calories of course we're getting sick of course we're getting mentally ill of course we're becoming less competitive we're eating literally a science experiment that was in

invented by the cigarette companies to addict us. And that's exactly what it does. They took their food scientists, their team of brilliant PhDs and said, dopamine is a business model. We're going to turn our attention from how do we make cigarettes addictive to how do we make food addictive? Because how do they meet their quarterly profits? They get more people insatiably eating this food. And it worked. We are now eating ourselves to death in the United States. 74% of American adults have overweight or obesity.

52% of American adults have type two diabetes or prediabetes. And of course all the downstream diseases from these heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's dementia are all going through, uh, going through the roof. And the food is quite literally designed to reach us to our bliss point. The use of chemicals that make our brain go crazy for this. And they include other chemicals like high fructose corn syrup that turn off our satiety signals. Meaning they, they tell our brain that we are not full.

And normally, of course, when you eat whole real food, you get full. You literally can't overeat grass-fed steak, right? You can't eat so much that you would get sick if you get full. Say that again. Amen, sister. Amen, sister. But the box of Pringles tells you exactly what they're trying to do to you. Once you pop, you just can't stop. And that's biochemical. That is food science. And of course, now...

we're spending 20% of the largest GDP in the world on healthcare costs and Americans are getting sicker. Why? 'Cause we're not focusing the root cause, which is the environmental factors like toxic foods, which are government subsidized and allowed by our government and are absolutely taking down the American population in front of our eyes. And they're ignoring it when grassroot efforts like what happened in Battle Creek, Michigan this week at the Kellogg's headquarters

it is absolutely being ignored. So we have got to scratch our heads about this. I think this is going to be a time in history that we look back on with real sadness of what we're doing to kids and to the adults in the American population with food. You know, in every way, the medical associations have so discredited themselves. The scientists have so discredited themselves. You know, it's not a wonder we...

uh we question authority it's not a wonder why we are questioning the government they were in bed they were with the covid vaccine where the government the federal reserve and moderna are all making money off of something they are forcing you to take back with uh dr casey means here in just a second first let me tell you about relief factor sleep i don't want to talk to you about uh sleep from a drug i don't know if you've ever taken ambien

You know, I think if you've held your traditional views on every subject over the last 20, 25 years, you're not thinking. I've changed on places I thought I would never, ever change. I'm a guy who, I mean, I like McDonald's. I love McDonald's. But even now, I'm looking at everything going, I don't... Look...

Too many people have food allergies. And we didn't have that when I was growing up. We didn't have food allergies like we do now. Too many people have autism and it's getting worse and worse. I'm not sure if it's the food or it's the medicine. I have a feeling it's the combination of both. Who makes the chemicals that are going into our food? Is it the same people that make our pharmaceuticals?

You know, it's actually different companies. And it's so funny because if you, these are companies that I think have really gone under the radar that are actually creating these, these weapons of mass destruction against, against American health. But,

If you look at it, I mean, have you heard of the company Selenese before? No. The leading industrial chemical company in the U.S. that also makes chemicals for the food and beverage industry. DuPont is one that you would expect. They make paint, too.

Right. So if you really want to lose your lunch, go to a company like Felonies and look at what they make. You'll see paint, you'll see industrial solvents, and then you'll see food and beverage. And that's because a lot of...

a lot of the chemicals that are in our food are petrochemical derived. You might not know this, but a lot of the pharmaceuticals that we take are actually made from petrochemicals and made from essentially crude oil. And it's because a lot of these companies like DuPont,

And what Rockefeller was doing in the early 1900s, they realized they could use the byproducts from oil production to create so many other things. So it's not really a surprise that these companies then make this slew of both industrial chemicals and also food and beverage chemicals. So are there...

I mean, there they've got to be reasons why, for instance, besides the Rockefeller thing, which I looked into and is terrifying. But petrochemicals can't be all bad. I mean, I know that makes the capsule for, you know, when you're taking medicine and people want it in a capsule. A lot of times it's that it's made from petrochemicals. Is there any is there any good that has come from that?

pharmaceuticals and helping us with food.

Well, I mean, any good of pharmaceuticals generally, of course. I mean, many of the pharmaceuticals that we're taking today are absolute miracles. A big distinction that I think people need to understand is the distinction between acute diseases and chronic diseases. The health care system has intentionally muddied this distinction, but it's important for everyone to understand. An acute illness is like something that's going to immediately kill you. An overwhelming...

a trauma like a car accident, a complicated childbirth. When we think about miracles in American health care, we think about solutions to acute issues like antibiotics, for instance. This really did extend our lifespan. But right now, the things that are torturing American lives across the lifespan are chronic issues, which are these slow-developing, smoldering diseases,

that are fundamentally caused by our diet, our environment and our lifestyle. A distortion of our cellular biology over time that manifests as these different diseases in different parts of our body, but that are fundamentally the same thing, our cells not working properly. That now makes up

90% of our health care costs, chronic issues. So in the early 1900s, we got on top of acute issues with miraculous medications. And then all of a sudden, the chronic issues started taking hold. Now, these are rooted in diet and lifestyle, things like heart disease, Alzheimer's, dementia, obesity, diabetes.

stroke, cancer. Most of them are preventable. And yet we've applied the same paradigm for how we treat acute issues, which is surgery and pills to chronic issues. And that has been generally an abject failure. If you think about the more statins we prescribe, the more heart disease goes up, the more metformin we prescribe, the more types of diabetes goes up, the more SSRIs we prescribe, the more

depression's going up, not as a cause of these medications, but because we're not addressing the actual root cause of the environment. We're ignoring that. All right. When we come back, I want to ask you, I mean, how extreme do you have to change your eating habits? I mean, I like flour. I don't want to grind the wheat myself. We'll go there in just a second. Glenn Beck.

You know, I think...

you know, what Robert F. Kennedy and Donald Trump are now doing. And, and what we're talking about is fundamental change and I very, almost everything. We just, we have created a system that doesn't work. That doesn't mean our constitution doesn't work the way we're skirting it. And, and we've made it into a money-making thing with the government. That's what doesn't work. Our,

Our credit cards right now, what's happening? We're putting all of this money into credit cards because we don't have the money because of the government fooling around with stuff. Our government bailing out all of these banks. They're paying us. We're having to pay them 25, 30 percent interest now because everything's all screwed up.

We've got to get back to reality. Now, until that happens and you're behind the eight ball with high interest credit cards, I want you to call American Financing. You'd be amazed at all of the different options that can get you right so you can weather the storms. AmericanFinancing.net, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440.

I didn't have anything to eat. I'm just having a little Cheerios, okay? And sorry, Mom, but I just put a little bit of sugar on my Cheerios. Your kids do this. Just put a little sugar on your Cheerios. You know, it's like soda. We were never allowed to have soda when I was growing up. And if you have just two cans of soda every day, by the end of the month, you've had 10 pounds of sugar.

So that's just like your kids having two bowls of cereal and putting three and a half tablespoons of sugar on their cereal. At what point did mom say enough sugar? I think it was probably before that. Just so you understand, 10 pounds of sugar, that's how your kids are filling their bowl if they have two bowls of Cheerios and would put three and a half tablespoons

on their, that's what they have just from two cans of soda. I don't think my mom would be for that. Nope, she wouldn't be. We are back with Dr. Casey Means. When we're talking about the health of America and our food, we did a show on it last night. It's incredible, and we just scratched the surface of this. But here's, you know, I watch these people, Casey, that are, that are,

you know, really into this and, you know, they're milking their own mice for cheese. And it's I'm not going to do that. I can't, you know, how extreme do you have to go? You know, it's so interesting. There is what you're talking about here with people really moving back towards, I think, this desired agrarian way of living. It's a huge trend. I don't know if you're seeing this,

like young people, millennials wanting to be homesteaders. I mean, it's really fascinating. And what I think people are finding is that when they start working on this, it's like there's almost a war on small farmers in this country right now. Senator Massey talks about this so beautifully. Um,

It makes you scratch your head again because you think, wow, there are regulations that are so extreme right now about things like meat processing that makes it very hard for people who even want to go and grow their own food to actually do it. So, you know, oh, interesting. What does this do? It turns an entire population of 350 million people into people.

people who are dependent on a food system. And we live in a country where there's a double bargain between the food industry making us sick and the healthcare industry profiting off of it. This is fascinating. So, yes. So I think the reality is, Glenn, you don't need to be necessarily growing all your food and raising your own, your cows and, you know,

in your backyard. But I think what we do need to realize is that we have to be moving back towards whole real unprocessed food as a majority of our calories. That's what's changed so much in the last four years we've gotten sicker is that our percentage of calories from natural foods that are grown somewhat close to where we live, i.e. fresh, has gone down precipitously where less than 20% of Americans

are eating the recommended amount of basic amount of recommended fruits and vegetables. We've got again, about 70% of our calories coming from factory made foods. And so what I always say to people is that if you can just

eat more whole real food, ideally organic, ideally local, you are going to transform your health. There's just no question about it. And it doesn't need any more expensive. The best thing you can possibly do is shop at the farmer's market. That's the reality. And the reason for that is a few fold. First, there are 9,000 farmer's markets in the U.S. today. Second is that it's quite accessible for most people. The second thing is you can actually talk to the farmer and ask them what the hell is going on there today.

their cropland, are you using pesticides? If you're not using synthetic pesticides, what are you using for pest control? You can look them in the eye and you can form a relationship, which is incredibly emotionally and spiritually fulfilling, I will say. Because I think one of the reasons we're feeling pretty depressed in this country is that we have no connection to our food, which is ultimately what makes up our bodies and our minds and our brains. We don't even know the people growing our food. It's so sterile and disconnected. So of course we're disconnected from ourselves.

And the third thing is that when we eat the food that was actually picked from the ground more recently, we get vastly more nutrients in that food and nutrients are what ultimately make us healthy. Every piece of food we eat has tens of thousands of different food compounds inside of it, natural food compounds that are actually the molecular medicines that make us healthy, that work with ourselves to create health. And as food gets farther from when it was picked, so two weeks out, three weeks out,

all of those nutrients are rapidly degrading. The average piece of food in the United States travels 1500 miles from soil to plate. And every single day and mile that it's traveling, it's losing the nutrients that can help us be healthy. So, you know, basically if you can just focus more on getting

food that doesn't come from a package and actually comes from the earth, it's gonna have a transformational effect on anyone's health. Not to mention when we cook at home, it means we're spending time with our families, we're investing in our health, and we're likely gonna be sitting down at a table to eat that food. And that alchemy of being with our family sharing food is becoming a lost art. Less than 30% of families are eating together regularly. And I think this speaks to a broader issue and how we've sort of lost the plot on our priorities in this country.

This is precious time we can spend with our families that we are absolutely abdicating for the sake of convenience. And it's not working for us. We're not happier. We're not healthier. And kids are really struggling. All right. Let me ask a couple of really stupid questions because I'm really new to this. The ultra processed food and processed food. What's the difference?

Yeah, great question. So there is a classification system of processed food, basically called the NOVA classification that goes from stage one to four, four being ultra processed food and three being processed food. When we talk about processed food, this would be like

a loaf of whole wheat bread that we made at home. So we took a wheat kernel, it was basically ground. And so all components of that wheat kernel are still present. The germ, the bran, it's mixed with water, it's mixed with eggs, it's mixed with salt, it's mixed with a little oil and we bake it. That's a processed food. And that food contains all

all of the original components that were originally in the wheat and the egg, et cetera. Now let's go to ultra process. You take that wheat kernel and in a factory, you are breaking apart the component pieces, the bran and the germ, you're isolating them. Then you're taking individual components

of that whole food and putting it together with other individual components of other foods as well as food additives and chemicals and creating a frankenfood that never before existed in nature and takes individual building blocks and puts them together in a totally unnatural way. So it's about extracting and recombining in a way that we could actually

Never do in our kitchen. Okay, so... So, but if I bake my own bread at home with good flour and good eggs, etc., etc., how can that be bad for me? That's not bad for you. Okay. So, there are healthy processed foods. There are no healthy ultra-processed foods. And ultra-processed foods, UPF, these are 70% of our calories now.

So there is a difference between, so you know, applesauce is a processed food. If you literally take apples, you wash them, you cut them, you cook them, you add cinnamon, you blend it up, that's a processed food. Of course that's a healthy food. Every component of the apple is still there. It's just been modulated, right? It's been cooked, it's been, you know, and so there are packaged foods that are processed that I would actually say are totally conducive to a healthy diet, like whole wheat or

organic bread or homemade applesauce without added sugar, or like I love flackers, which are a type of cracker you can find at the grocery store. That's literally vinegar, salt, water, and organic flax seeds. But of course they were mixed together and cooked. And so that is a processed food. But what we really want to avoid is these ultra processed foods. This is where the food scientists got involved and had to literally molecularly like synthesize

separate parts of an original food and put it back together like a total Frankenstein food that our body doesn't know how to recognize. And because it's not real, we have to put all these additives in to preserve it and make it taste like something. And then those, of course, many of them are very, very toxic. All right. So anything with a preservative in it is kind of the beginning of the line.

I would say a synthetic preservative or any type of artificial food coloring or food flavoring we should absolutely avoid. You know, my dad was a baker and for five generations, everybody in my family has been a baker except for me.

And I was a black sheep, but and strangely, the one that was really fat. He my father was in great shape his whole life. He never exercised. He played golf once a week, but he really didn't exercise. He was working all the time. But I remember when high fructose corn syrup first kind of showed up and he was he I remember him saying this stuff will be the death of us.

Only use real ingredients. It might have more calories. It might do this or that, but it's better for you. And, you know, he died a pretty healthy guy.

Wow. He knew the truth. Yeah. Reifers' corn syrup is a weapon of mass destruction against Americans. People need to realize that this is not a ubiquitous aspect of American culture. This is brand new. It was created in the 1970s. And it's now, as people might notice if they read labels, it's added to everything. It's in our ketchup. It's in our salad dressings. It's in our bread. It's everywhere. And this is by design. Of course, it's filling our sodas as well.

The reason it's by design is with high fructose corn syrup, unlike fructose you find in, you know, honey or fruits where it's, you know, in fruit it's surrounded by fiber and there's a very small amount. High fructose corn syrup is concentrated and it's in a liquid form. So it goes into the body fast. And what it does is it actually subverts our hunger cues and it makes us feel full.

even hungrier. There's this fascinating thing that we know from evolutionary biology with animals that hibernating animals like bears, when the fall comes and the berries are all ripe out in the wild, for a bear to survive winter, the bear needs to put on

20, 30 more pounds of fat. So how does the bear do that? It eats these super ripe, fructose-rich berries. And that fructose in a super high concentration actually tricks the bear's brain because of the molecular structure of fructose to make the bear insatiably hungry rather than full.

It's actually, it's a very unique aspect of fructose. And it drives the bear to even be violent because the bear needs to outcompete other animals to eat as many berries as possible. And what does fructose do? It hurts our, not to get too sciencey here, but our mitochondrial function. Remember from high school biology, mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. And it breaks mitochondrial function, which then causes the bear to store all that sugar as fructose.

Okay. So this is fascinating. So food scientists figured this out and thought, wow, if we add this to every little piece of food that we create, it's going to make people think that they are like hibernating animals preparing for a winter that is never coming. And it's going to get them to be insatiable. It's going to make them to be aggressive in their food seeking behaviors and they're

they're going to, of course, 3D print fat just like those animals. That is the experiment happening to American children. That is why we're 74% of us are overweight or obese in addition to many other environmental factors. But this is, it's why, and we know this, this is not, so, you know, and then you look at what happens with the money and you know, we know that,

Much of the food science and food research done in America is paid for by processed food industry. And this absolutely slants the findings. 82% of independently funded studies show harm from ultra-processed food.

But 93% of industry-sponsored studies reflect no harm. So we're getting bad science telling us this is okay, which totally goes against our common sense, but confuses the narrative. And now we're all here thinking, is it the food? Is it not the food? Because the science has literally been bought off.

Senator Ted Cruz is on with us in just a minute. Oh, good. His debate was great the other night. Yeah, it was. We have to keep Texas red. Ted Cruz will be joining us in just a minute. Also, Bob Rommel, he is a Florida state representative. We're going to talk a little bit about the abortion amendment that is happening in Florida. This is happening all over the country. They're trying to change the Constitution in several states, including

And you have to be really careful because it is worded very carefully. And you could be easily fooled by it. We'll talk about that coming up in just a minute. You know, I almost said to her, so Mexican Coke is okay, right? Because it doesn't have the corn syrup in it. That's just cane sugar. So that's all right. Totally. I'm sure she would have said totally fine. Well, she might have said, not really, but it's better.

Yeah, I mean, I think the interesting thing about that is just how much you can do, right? Like she mentioned herself, right? She had a drink. She didn't know she had some of these ingredients and she doesn't like. Yeah. She's still alive talking to us today, which is good. But her body is running so pure that it is probably, you know, like you put high octane gas in your car and it's running on that all the time. Then you put low octane. It runs differently. It doesn't kill your car, but it runs differently. And I think that's probably what she's seeing.

Yeah. And look, making healthier choices, there's no question. Better for you. Yeah. I just...

It's definitely true. You just don't want to be farmer stew. I would not do well in that community. I feel like I look at the one thing she's like, oh, you go to your go to your farmer's market. I like farmer's markets, by the way. They're awesome. But I'm not I'm not talking to the farmers like they know what they're doing. I'm not going to question them. Wait a minute. What preservatives are you putting? I'm not doing that. They're too cool. They know what they're doing already. I'm just letting them do their thing. And then I'm eating the fruit. All right. Back in a minute with Ted Cruz.

Glenn, I'm doing terrific. How are you? Great. You killed it on the debate with Allred. Just I mean, it shouldn't have surprised anybody. I think maybe he was a little surprised that he did so poorly, but you could tell he was just nervous. He knew what he was walking into. You buzzsaw.

Well, look, I also think he had a difficult task to begin with, because what he is doing in this campaign is is trying to run away from his entire record. He's trying to present a picture to the voters that is fundamentally false. His actual voting record in his time as Congress has been extreme left. He's his first four years in Congress. He voted with Nancy Pelosi 100 percent of the time.

He voted with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris their first two years in office 100 percent of the time. So he's voted for open borders over and over again. He's voted for releasing violent criminals from jail over and over again. He's voted for taxes and spending and debt. He's voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris's assault on energy and oil and gas and jobs in the state of Texas.

All of that is a terrible record if you want to run statewide in Texas because that's directly contrary to the values of Texas. His whole campaign is millions of dollars trying to present a false image of who he is. And my objective in the debate was very simple, lay out his record and lay out mine.

His objective was try to hide his record, and I don't think that objective succeeded. No, it definitely did not. Senator, you mentioned that Allred had voted on the issue of men playing in women's sports multiple times. I think you said four times. He kept trying to basically huff and puff and say it wasn't true. What's the truth on this?

Well, the truth is straightforward. And actually going into the debate, I mean, we had run several TV ads laying out his record on supporting boys playing in girls sports, men playing in women's sports. And he looked, those ads were doing damage. His negatives were going up and it was it was having a real impact.

And so last week he put up a TV ad where he's just him standing, looking straight to camera, saying this is not true. I do not support boys and girls sports. This is a lie. Ted is a liar. That's his ad.

Now, it was we had within 48 hours, we had a response ad up that had what he said and then just laid out the facts. And so I did the same thing in the debate where he likewise said, I do not support boycotting.

Boys and girls sports. And what are the facts? Why did you vote? What are the facts? Why did you vote for it? The facts are he supported it four separate times. Number one, he's a co-sponsor of and he voted for a bill called the Equality Act. The Equality Act mandated that boys use girls' restrooms, be able to use girls' changing rooms, be able to use girls' locker rooms, and be able to compete in sports. That's number one. Number two...

There was a bill that was called the Protecting Girls and Women's Sports Act. It was a very narrow bill. It did one thing. It said that girls' sports are protected and boys can't compete in them. Women's sports are protected and men can't compete in them. It's all they did. Colin Allred voted no.

The third thing he did, he signed on to something called the Transgender Bill of Rights. He was a co-sponsor of it. The Transgender Bill of Rights explicitly says boys should be able to compete against girls if that's how they identify. He proudly signed on to that. That's number three. And then number four, number four, something he did just a couple of weeks ago, he joined with over 100 very left wing Democrats.

He signed a letter about our military. And here are the changes, he said, that he believes we need in our military. He said, number one, our military bases need to have drag shows. Number two, he said, taxpayers need to pay for sex change operations on soldiers on our military bases. Number three.

Taxpayers need to pay for sex change operations and sterilization of children on our military bases. And number four, he demanded that military bases be able to fly the transgender flag above the base.

Now, look, that is a radical agenda that is wildly disconnected from where Texans are when it comes to our military. Call me old fashioned. I think our military ought to be the finest fighting force on the face of the planet. I think they ought to be. Their job is to defend the United States of America, to keep.

keep americans safe and to be prepared to kill our enemies if necessary and all of this left-wing politics has no business being forced upon our military that sadly is who he is and that's what he wants to see i i have to tell you we we talked about it we've been talking about it quite a bit but earlier this week we mentioned that um

that your campaign is not getting any help from the Senate GOP. Mitch McConnell is not offering a dime to you, and you have Soros and every big leftist group coming down to try to make sure you are not the senator from Texas. That's all out-of-state money. And Mitch McConnell isn't doing – the GOP is worthless. They're not doing anything to help you.

It is infuriating. Chuck Schumer has been explicit. I'm his number one target in the entire country. He is flooding cash into the state. He is going to spend between $100 million and $150 million in this race. We're being massively outspent. Glenn, you live in Texas. Yeah, I know. You know well. Colin Allred has been statewide on TV for four months. Oh, and it's relentless. Yeah.

Everywhere. I just got up on TV a few weeks ago and, you know, I was reading something criticizing what Cruz really should have been on TV four months ago. I would love to. It takes tens of millions of dollars that we didn't have. And you're right. Mitch McConnell has a super PAC with 400 million dollars that he's spending in Senate races. He spent zero in Texas, even though there have been a dozen polls that

that show this race is a one-point race or a two-point race or a three-point race. By the way, Mitch did the same thing in 2018. My last election was at the time the most expensive Senate race in U.S. history. I was outspent three to one. I ended up winning by less than three points. And again, Mitch spent zero. And there's a reason. He uses that money to reward the senators who obey him.

and to freeze out the senators who stand up to him. And if you're at home frustrated, wondering how come so few Republican senators have a backbone and stand up to leadership, the answer is it costs you $10 million or $20 million or $30 million or even $40 million. That's right. And so what it means is I have to rely on patriots in Texas across the country

I want to ask your listener, please come to TedCruz.org, TedCruz.org, come right now to TedCruz.org and make a contribution. Give 10 or 25 or 50 or maybe someone could give 100 or 500 or even 1,000 because the only way we counteract

The hundred million plus from Chuck Schumer and George Soros is is patriots and conservatives and common sense freedom lovers coming to Ted Cruz dot org, making a contribution right now. And I'll tell you, we're 19 days out from Election Day. Literally, you go on Election Day, you give one hundred dollars right now and tomorrow that money goes out on TV to communicate with the voters because it's real simple. If the voters know my record and his record, we

We will win. But the flip side is simple, too. If we don't have the money to let the voters know my record and his record, he will win. That will decide this race. It's why I need you to go to TedCruz.org right now and help us lay the records out, help us defend Texas and defend the country. You know, Bernie Sanders and AOC say that Texas is the first step in changing the nation. I think it's the last step. If we lose Texas...

We lose every time. Yes. Every time. Well, and actually, I'll say something that I've never said before, Glenn. AOC agrees with you.

I know that may be a first that makes sense out of you, but it is. But but both Bernie Sanders and AOC came to Texas two weeks ago. They came here to campaign for Colin Allred. Now, that will tell you who he is. AOC and Bernie Sanders are here because they see him as the key to succeeding with their agenda. And here's what AOC said. If we win Texas.

We changed the country for a generation. He understands. That's it. This is the whole ballgame. And Colin Allred's record...

is hard, hard left. His record is voting for open borders over and over and over again. His record is voting for boys and girls sports over and over and over again. His record is voting for releasing violent criminals from jail over and over and over again. His record is voting against oil and gas and energy and jobs in Texas over and over and over again. And if he gets elected,

He would be a hard left senator, just like he's been a hard left house member. And yet the corporate media, every newspaper article you read about him, every TV news story, they describe him as a moderate bipartisan centrist, a middle of the road unifier who brings people together just like Nancy Pelosi. He has the identical voting record she does. And yet the media is spending millions,

trying to spin and trying to lie. And that's what makes this very, very dangerous. So, uh, uh,

What's his name? Turtle face is not giving any money to Ted Cruz, but he'll give it to Cornyn. And we cannot have John Cornyn and a leftist representing the great state of Texas. It just can't happen. It can't happen. We lose the republic if we lose this election. Please go to Ted Cruz dot org and donate today.

This is a very, very close election. This is probably, I would say, as close as Kamala and Donald Trump. I mean, it's a point or two. It could go either way. And the problem is, is in Texas, we are so arrogant that we think, oh, Texas will always vote the right way. Texas is always... No, it's...

There are hundreds of millions of dollars being poured into this state to change it blue because they know if they win in Texas, it's all over.

You can't allow this to happen. And with people like McConnell not helping, you kind of know where Ted Cruz stands. He's not for that game that the Rhinos are playing. He's not for it. That's why he's not getting any of the money. Please donate now to TedCruz.org. TedCruz.org. Ted, thank you. And please call us back. Tell us what you need. We're there.

Glenn, I appreciate you. We need two things. We need contributions at TedCruz.org, and we need every Texan. Make sure you vote. Early voting starts on Monday. Come out and vote. Get your friends to vote. Get your family to vote. It's all about turnout. And the other side is pushing really hard. We need everyone who wants to keep Texas, Texas to stand up and fight right now. Yeah, thank you very much. This one is a really scary one.

Because people are really, honestly, asleep at the switch. They just think, I'm not going to vote. My vote's not going to matter because, you know, Trump's going to win. Cruz is going to win. No, not this time. Not this time. Not with the amount of money that they have poured into this state. It is going to be close.

Please, everyone in every state, don't count this as an easy win. It's not going to be. You've got to get out in each and every state and vote. All right. Back in just a minute.

You know, another one that is kind of playing the same game, pretending to be a moderate, is Dan Osborne in Nebraska. This one fires me up. This guy, man. Oh, you know, I'm just not a Republican or a Democrat. No, I think he's a socialist. Look who is associating with him and spending money. You have the Democratic Socialist of America.

One of the Democratic Socialists of America came out in 2021 with an op-ed, How to Achieve Socialism in Our Lifetime Through Shrewd Politicking. Now in the final stages of his campaign, Osborne has finally gotten the endorsement from the socialist publications. He's being boosted behind the scenes by Democratic political apparatus, which

Osborne socialist campaign ads include his former finance director, but Brad Chester, he was a member of the Metro DC democratic socialist of America and

He also had $4,250 from the Osborne campaign in November 23 for fundraising consulting services. Prior to joining the Osborne campaign, Chester served as the regional field director for Bernie Sanders. These people are far leftist and leftist.

And they're doing the same thing in every state that is currently happening with Kamala Harris. She is trying to run as somebody she's not. Her mother and her father are avowed Marxists that were active. Her father rejected capitalism. Her mother wrote a radical book in the 1960s all about socialism and how neat it is.

She's a socialist, but they're running her again as a moderate. But she doesn't say anything that she believes. She can't fake these answers to appear to be moderate because she doesn't understand them. So she just says, I'm not Donald Trump and I'm not Joe Biden. She's right. She's not. She's a socialist.

Yeah, and I think a lot of people, I mean, I think there's some people in Nebraska who are like, ah, well, you know, there's two Senate races. Maybe I'll vote one Republican and the Independent and the other one. Oh, my gosh. I'm telling you, the only thing you need to think about in these races right now is whether you want...

Kamala Harris, if she were to win, to be able to name any Supreme Court justice she wants, right? Is she able to pass the laws that she wants? Do you want a Democratic Senate to be able to block Donald Trump's justices if he becomes president and can name Supreme Court justice?

These are really important things. And I, Glenn, there are no, no nonpartisan polls of this race. Nothing. We have no idea. All we have is polling from inside the campaigns. Correct. Which is worthless, honestly, at this point. I want, can somebody run a freaking poll in this race? So his campaign, Osborne's campaign, paid the consulting firm Bread and Roses nearly $7,500 for digital consulting services. Bread and Roses. Bread and Roses. What is that?

That's the Democratic Socialists. These are Marxist organizers that are behind him. This consulting firm has former staffers for Sanders and AOC. You don't have those people in your campaign if you're not

If you're an independent who's, you know, I'm not going to be a socialist. If you want Bernie Sanders and AOC in control, then you can vote that way. But don't be fooled by the fact that this guy is he is as left a Democrat as you're going to find. He will vote with Democrats every single time when he gets in. He's just lying to you now to fool a red state into voting for a Democrat. That's it. That's all this is. One correction. He will vote not with the Democrats because the Democrats aren't really common sense Democrats anymore. He will vote with the socialists.

Every single time. Nebraska, you cannot let Osborne win. All right, Pam wrote in recently about her dog's experience with rough greens. She says, Winston, my six-year-old Shelty, is a really picky eater, and I've been really impressed because he will pick the dry food with rough greens over his wet food now any day.

Eleven statewide ballot measures related to abortion were certified in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Nevada, South Dakota, all for the general election ballot in 2024. This is the most on record for a single year.

Abortion is on the ballot, and you have to be very, very careful. I'm going to go to Bob Rommel, who is a Florida state representative, as they are having their debate about this abortion amendment. Hello, Bob. How are you? Hi.

Glenn, thank you so much for having me on it. Thanks for all you're doing. And I'm doing great today with my coffee and acetone. Thank you for listening. So talk to me about Amendment No. 4.

Glenn, a couple years ago in Florida, you know, in Florida, we've done so many things to protect children here. First of all, we're the first state to ban boys from playing in girls sports. We stopped boys from going in girls bathrooms. We stopped gender affirmation care for minors.

And we also passed a six-week abortion ban a couple years ago. And before we passed the bill, we paid attention to the other side that was going to oppose it. They were talking about, you know, incidents of rape and incest, and we put those exceptions in. And then I talked to some young women that were talking about how expensive it is to raise a child. And so we put in over $700 million in programs to help those that would make that choice just because of financial reasons.

And, you know, we have a great state. I think we have the best state in the nation. Sorry, Texas. I know. I know. Texas is in your rearview mirror. I don't like it, but it's true. We still love you. The left has been paying attention to what's going on. They can't believe so many good things are happening. And Amendment 4, which would create the most liberal abortion laws ever,

in America, actually way more liberal than even France. It wasn't started in Florida, Glenn. It was started by the Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, George Soros, dumping millions and millions of dollars into our state to destroy it. Almost every single one of these abortion amendments...

Include one very important word in Florida. No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health as determined by the patient health care provider. So that means abortion at any time at partial birth abortion. That's everything, is it not?

It is at any time for any reason. Right. So first of all, I'm disappointed in our Supreme Court. Maybe I shouldn't say that because they have to approve the language. It can't be vague. I'm very smart. Most of the people I know are pretty smart. Some are very smart. Nobody knows what a health care provider is.

is because it doesn't describe it. It could be your masseuse. It could be your nail technician that says it's important for you. It could be your whatever. And viability, there's some vagueness there. I mean, in France, it says 14 weeks, period. Here, viability. And

It's disturbing. And when I talk to people, I know this is personal. I know it's, you know, it's dividing our nation. But when I tell them what's in the bill, they just don't want to hear it. They said, that's not true. I go, it's true. You have to read it. You have to understand it. Glenn, a 14 year old child in school can't go to the nurse and get an aspirin if they have a headache. I know. But the 14 year old child could go to Planned Parenthood to get an abortion and the parent

Couldn't stop it. I know. I know. This is really, really dangerous. And everybody, I mean, if you are somebody who's against abortion, again, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska,

New York, Nevada, South Carolina, all of these states have a constitutional amendment being voted on. What's the difference, Bob, between just a law and a constitutional amendment? Well, I'm elected every two years, and I'm actually termed out in a couple weeks. But if you don't like what I did, you can...

You can not elect me the next term. Or if we realize we did something that's not working, we can change it. It's nearly impossible to change a constitutional amendment. So in the United States, most of your listeners, because they're smart, will know that there's 27 constitutional amendments in our country.

In Florida, there's over 150 of them, and they're usually sponsored by outside people. They're pay for play, basically. They're confusing. We still have an amendment protecting pregnant pigs. I don't really know what it actually does, but it's a constitutional amendment protecting pregnant pigs. But I guess we're not going to protect pregnant moms anymore. Sorry.

They're awful. They can never, ever go away. That's why you come up here. I mean, we have open door policy. People come up, we visit them. And again, when we did our six week abortion ban, I listened to people and I said, hey, we have to do something for these moms that are thinking about keeping their baby. We, you know, between hyperinflation, they can't afford it. So let's take

Let's take that off the table. Let's give them another reason to keep that baby. And we did it. We did it here. We do so many things to protect it, but

Glenn, it's even more dangerous than just Amendment 4. Across the nation, you know, if you look at the geographic map of the United States, there's way more, you know, either conservative or moderate people out there that just want to be left alone. But the crazy radicals that are trying to destroy our country, they're using these citizen initiative ballots, spending hundreds of millions, probably billions all over to actually get rid of the legislative process. And you know what?

It's awful. So here's another problem with this. In Florida, it's legally necessary for a physician to be present at an abortion. But Amendment 4 just says a health care provider is

But in Florida law, provider is a person that furnishes health care services and is licensed or otherwise authorized to practice in the state. That's a physician's assistant, a registered nurse, a nurse midwife, a licensed practical nurse or an advanced practice registered nurse that is licensed. That's not a doctor. That's that's a midwife saying, yeah, you want an abortion? OK, I can give that to you.

And that's why I'm disappointed in our Supreme Court. How these things happen is, you know, you have to get 920,000 verified signatures, which it turns out there may have been some fraud there and you can't pay for signatures. And we believe it may have happened, but it's probably too late to change that. But then you have to go before the court and say, OK, these things can't be vague because there's trickery in language and nobody really pays attention.

And the court, you know, and many of the people who were appointed by Governor DeSantis, it was four to three approving the language. And unfortunately, the people that approved the language, they were the men that were appointed by Governor DeSantis. And I'm probably going to get in trouble for saying that, but oh, well, I didn't hear out anyway.

Who cares? There shouldn't be vagueness in this. You know, it should be clear. And listen, the one good thing our founding fathers did, they made it almost impossible to change the U.S. Constitution. In Florida and other states, it's for sale. That's crazy.

Bob, thank you so much. Thanks for informing us on this. We'll keep hammering this. This is really, really important. Let me just give you the language in other states. Arizona establishes the fundamental right to abortion that the state of Arizona may not interfere with before the point of fetal viability.

Again, what is that? That's constantly changing. Provide a constitutional right to abortion in the state constitution and allow the use of public funds for abortion is Colorado.

Provide a constitutional right to abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health as determined by the patient's health care provider. That's the Florida one in Maryland. Amend the Maryland Constitution to establish a right to reproductive freedom defined to include decisions to prevent, continue or end one's own pregnancy.

Wow, that's kind of open. In Missouri, amend the Missouri Constitution to provide the right for reproductive freedom and provide that the state legislature may enact laws that regulate abortion after fetal viability. Montana, amend Montana's Constitution to provide a state constitutional right to make and carry out decisions about one's own pregnancy, including the right to abortion. Again, Montana, no restrictions.

Nebraska amend the Nebraska Constitution to provide that unborn children shall be protected from abortion in the second and third trimesters. Well, that's good. But also you have in Nebraska the right to an abortion to amend the Nebraska Constitution to provide that all persons shall have a fundamental right to abortion until fetal viability.

In New York, add language to the New York Bill of Rights to provide that people cannot be denied rights based on their ethnicity, national origin, age and disability or sex, including sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes and reproductive health care and autonomy.

Wow. Nevada established a constitutional right for an abortion or to an abortion, providing for the state to regulate abortion after fetal viability, except were medically indicated to protect life, physical health or mental health of the pregnant woman. That is a wide open door. And South Dakota provide a trimester framework for regulating abortion in the South Dakota Constitution. With an exception of two, the answer is no.

On all of those, be aware they are making abortion a very big deal. The people who believe in abortion are going to be out in force, especially in those states. That means you have to be out in a bigger force. Voting is so important. It is your civic responsibility as an American citizen. I don't care if you don't like either of the candidates. I don't.

Choose life. The contrast here is so stark. I don't know what would keep you at home at this point. Vote and vote early if you can. All right. Back in just a minute.

Welcome to the program. Well, we have some good news. The political leader and the head general of Hamas, same guy, killed. Oh, no. No, no. Well, they have DNA, so they're thinking that he was killed. Yes. He might have just been a smush on...

you know, the side of a building. But they think he has been killed. That's what's being reported now. This is a big deal. This is a guy that was released. You remember that prisoner thing where Hamas is demanding that you release some prisoners and they're like, and Israel's like, what? No, they're really violent.

Yeah. And they got one, Israel got one of their soldiers who had been held captive in exchange for 1,027 Palestinian prisoners. One of which was this guy. And who wound up becoming the head of Hamas and,

Being one of the central masterminds of October 7th, among other things. I'm sad. So... I mean, I'm not handing out cake like an animal in the streets, but I'm not real sad. But this is really, really good news for multiple reasons. One, he gets what he deserves. Yep. But two... He's with the virgins now. Or not. Or not. But two, you know, it...

There's a clearer path to maybe ending this, right? Like, you know, they have already wiped out something like 60 or 70% of Hamas with the leader gone. You know, this might, maybe there's an ending to this. I mean, that's what everybody wants. I mean, the ending just has to be with Hamas gone forever. It can't just be like, well, let's just do a ceasefire and let them go back to their business. That can't be the ending. And he was hiding exactly where all of the people...

with Hamas said, oh, they're just innocent people there. That's where he was hiding. Yeah, and not just Hamas, our media, our media in the United States was saying over and over again, don't, you can't go into Rafah. That's where all the people are. They're all there. They're all innocents. Are they?

Wait, but over and over and over again, it was said by Israel, by us, that, you know, this is where they hide, though. They go in there with the innocent people intentionally because they don't think you'll go there. They hope they'll be protected. Now, it's an innocent, it's an interesting admission about Israel. Mm-hmm.

Why wouldn't they go there? I thought they were genocidal maniacs. You know they won't go there because they are not genocidal maniacs and they are not committing a genocide. They are trying to get rid of Hamas and they took a big step in that direction today, which is very good news. Congratulations on that. Hey, I'm going to be doing a fundraiser for both hurricanes today on XRX.

spaces. You're raising money for the hurricanes? Are you on the hurricane side? Well, nobody's paying attention to the hurricanes, those poor hurricanes. You bastard. Yeah. For the hurricane relief, several organizations, Mercury One is one of them. But I'll be on with a whole bunch of people. Roseanne Barr is going to be joining me. A lot of the people that were actually on the ground or still actually on the ground are

And a bunch of other celebrities are going to be on too. Yeah, it's going to be a pretty cool event. Yeah, really cool. And it's going to be on X Spaces. I'm hosting, I think, the first hour of the first two hours. I'm not really sure. I think I'm on from four to six or five to seven. And just watch. Just go to Spaces.
