Wow. Wow. You know, okay, they didn't do the Save America act, but the House has passed an act to fix the clocks. Next they're going to work on pizza crusts. I think now it didn't go through the Senate. This is insanity. What the hell are they doing in Washington? Also, the a way to look and explain communism to people. Instead of saying you're a communist, let's figure out how we could talk to people and actually change their mind. So the confiscators, something I take on today. Also a challenge for Jennifer Welsh who thinks that homeschooling is just stupid. Is it? I challenged Jennifer Welch to join me on this program and I'm gonna just find a homeschooler that is 15 years old and I'll just do a little, you know, kind of like play Jeopardy. Jennifer an adult who is clearly very, very bright and a 15 year old homeschooler. We'll see who's, who's really the dumb one here. Jenn. Jennifer, that challenge and so much more is on today's podcast. Keeping yourself and your family safe means being prepared for situations that can, you know, put you or them in danger. It means being prepared for all the situations, you know, even those situations where deadly force is not needed. In fact, it's a real problem. There are more of those than you think. And if you're a gun owner, it's unfortunately easy to think a gun will provide you all the safety it needs. But you never pull a gun unless you're prepared to kill somebody. And I'm, I'm not in all situations, you know, but they can go bad fast. There is a tool for this. It's the burner launcher. It's a non lethal alternative to safeguarding your home that will teach somebody a very painful non lethal lesson. It's legal in all 50 states, no permits or background checks required. And it can be used by all age groups over 18. My kids carry them in their backpacks. You'd be confident that you are prepared to defend yourself against potential threats.

Together, we'll make a difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now, let's get to work. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program. I want to talk to you again about. Continue the conversation. This is something that's going to evolve over the next, you know, few months. I think we're going to be talking about communists for a while now. And we have to, we have to know who our audience is, who we're trying to talk to, and then not, not just run it all into just bumper stickers. Communist. Nobody's going to react to that. You know how they're going to react to that? The same way when somebody calls you a racist. Fine, whatever. Oh, I'm a racist. It has no meaning anymore. Communism has no meaning anymore. Okay? We have been saying communists forever, ever. And to a lot of people that is. You know, I've heard them cry wolf about communism a thousand times. People are not necessarily communists. Not everybody is a communist. Let me give you three categories of vote I think people are going through right now, especially if they're under 30 and maybe, maybe under 40. I don't know. But I think there are three categories. There is the valid disillusioned person that has real grievance, that is looking at things. And like, I worked hard, I did everything I was supposed to, and I can't afford a house and a reasonable house. I can't afford to start a family. I can't find a job. And it's all because of capitalism. No, some of it is about crony capitalism. But again, nobody listens. Nobody listens. And so they're not communists. They don't want gulags, they don't want millions dead. They just, they don't understand. And no one's talking to them except the, quote, socialists who are now finding out in the study I told you about yesterday, about 51% of the DSA, they're communists, self acclaimed communists. And there's a big difference between, between a socialist and a communist. So you have the disillusioned who are just trying to figure things out. And then they start listening to socialists and, and they don't realize that 51% of the people that are behind this are communist. And if they do, they may not even know what communists are, what they've done. They don't know the history because they've never been taught. That's the second category. They start to become socialists, but they still are just, they're looking, they actually believe in the utopia. They believe this will make things better. Okay? And then there's the third category, the category that actually are killers and thieves and communists, okay? Because once you know you're a communist and you are, you declare it and you, you know what that means. Well then I put you in a separate category. But the first two categories, the majority of people that we're talking about who are voting for socialists, they have no idea. They have no idea. So we can't just yell communist because they're not going to listen, okay? And I don't want a better insult, I want a better word. I want something you can point to, you know, something that fair minded people can't just wave away because I, I, I can't, I don't know what's in their heart, okay? But I want to know, I want them to know and I want to be able to describe what their policies that they are claiming they're for, what it does. So let me take you back to Paris in 1850. Two years earlier, 1848. Couple of Germans publish a little pamphlet, you know the one. And in the middle of it, one of these Germans, Karl Marx, does the thing his followers today will not do. He tells you plainly what it's all for. The whole theory, he writes, boils down to a single sentence. The abolition of private property. I don't think any of these people who are young socialists want to get rid of their cell phone, their house, their car, whatever it is. But that's what it actually is. It boils down to the abolition of private property. That's his goal, in his words. Okay, so Marx names the goal, but it takes a Frenchman, believe it or not, to name the machine. And it's Bastiat. Bastiat is a member of the French assembly. 1848, he has front row seats to socialism's very first live experiment. Okay? France is deciding it's going to guarantee every man a job paid for by taking from men who already have a job. And he watches it start and then he watches it quickly break in 1850, he now has TV and he writes this book called the Law. It's a Little book, you should get it. And he hands us a phrase that we don't use. And he calls it legal plunder. He chose those two words really carefully. Plunder. What does that mean? It means taking something that isn't yours. And we know that's wrong. We teach that as kids. Don't take. You don't take that, that's not yours. And we build prisons for it. But Bastiat noticed something funny, and we've talked about this before. When one man does it, we call it robbery and we lock him up. But when somebody who wears the robes of government does it, a bill, a program, a vote, we call it justice and we hold a ribbon cutting for it. Same act, same taking of something that doesn't belong on to you, you're taking it from somebody else. But you just put on a robe so you're not a criminal. So what's the best tool in this fight? It's a test. You want to know if a law is plunder? Don't argue the label, okay? Just look at it. Does it take from some people what belongs to them and hand it to people it doesn't belong to? Does it let one citizen do to another, through the government, what he'd be arrested for doing himself? That's the whole test. Could you do that yourself? If the answer is no, because you'd go to prison for it, then you can't assign that you don't have the right to do it. So you cannot assign that right to the government, okay? That's the whole test. And notice what it's not. What it's not, is you're a bad person, you're a communist. Do you own a Che poster? None of that. It's just a mechanism. You run it on a policy and the policy passes or it fails. You can roll your eyes at the name, but not the test, okay? You can't roll your eyes at a mechanism. So here's the new vocabulary as I see it. And I'd be interested in talking to anybody else who has a better idea. But I think we need to redefine a few things first. Four words, and I'll show you. I'll show you why each ones work. First, the machine itself. The politics of plunder. You use this for the act, the transfer, the seizure, the confiscation that's dressed up as compassion. It's the politics of plunder. It's the politics of thievery, okay? Theft. It works because it drags the fa, the fight off of feelings and off of the field of Politics and into facts. You're not accusing anybody of secret ideology. You're not pointing, saying, look, there's a bunch of communists. What you're pointing to is what this proposed law would do in daylight and say, let's run the test on that. Because this seems like the politics of plunder, the politics of thievery, of theft. Second, the men who run it, they're not politicians. They're confiscators. The confiscation class. This one works because it defines a man by what he does, not by what he feels. He's a dirty Commie. No, his job is to confiscate those things that are not his. I can't see his heart. I can see your voting record. Are you voting for the confiscators? A confiscator is anybody whose answer to every problem on God's green earth is the same. Take more from somebody else, not me, but from somebody else. And let the state decide who deserves it. You're confiscating property. Now, you know, I don't have to prove that person loves Stalin. I only have to show you that his hand is in somebody else's pocket. The third is the worldview underneath all of this. And that's the taker's creed, the thieves creed. There are only two ways to get things in the world. There's just two. You can make it, you can grow it. You can trade for it. You can earn it, and that's the maker's way. Or you can take it. Whether it's you just being a thief or you've just given a right that you don't have yourself. And you've given that to the government, and you've given it to guy with a badge. And you call that taking, that thievery, fairness. Now, it's really simple to see. And none of it is political. Okay, let me give you this. A guy spends all summer raising a chicken. He feeds it. He sits up at night guarding it from the fox. He's built a fence around it. He bought the food. He frets over it like it's family, because it's feeding his family. And then his neighbor, who raised nothing, didn't do anything all summer, risked nothing, lost no sleep, sends some guy that he has hired over to your house and cuts the chicken in half and says, I'm taking half the bird. You're like, wait, what? It's compassionate? No, no, it's theft. You don't have a right to do that. It says, the man who produced is suspect and the man who redistributes it is holy. That's insanity. Say the inversion out loud and people will feel it because everybody listening knows in his bones the difference between earning and. And taking. And here's the fourth one, the quietest, maybe the cruelest one. The architects of dependency. Because this is where the road ends. Plunder. If you take from the maker long enough, what does he do? And this is where. This is where communism fails all the time. What happens? You take from somebody who's a maker long enough, what do they do? They either, if they can get out of your country or they just stop making. Because why am I doing it? Why? Half or everything that I own. I can't own any property anymore. I don't have anything that's mine. Why am I doing anything? I'll just stand in line with everybody else. You feed the taker long enough, you feed them, they forget how to feed themselves. So you didn't rescue the poor man. You built the poor man. You designed him. And here's what's really nefarious about this. You designed him to need you forever. You've just made. I mean, you would be arrested if you did this in business. You've just made a permanent client, a permanent patron. Both of them mistaking the chain for a gift. You've just enslaved them and they're thanking you for it. Now, your neighbor who votes for every bit of this, is he a monster? No, he's not dreaming of the Gulag. He sees a sick kid or a broke grandmother or a man who just lost his job and thinks, you know, the strong should help the weak and they ought to. That instinct is one of the best things about humans. That's what Jesus teaches us, okay, that you share. Jesus never taught that you take, you share. But watch what the machine does with a good intention once you feed into it. And it's a number. It's actually a number from a graveyard. Scholars put together something called Every home should have this book. It's called the Black Book of Communism. And it counted the last all of the dead of the last century's communist regimes. And it lands somewhere between 94 million and north of 100 million human beings. Russia, China, Cambodia, North Korea, Cuba. 100 million. Now, how do you kill a hundred million people? It's easy. It starts with a lie. They died from a neck, a mechanism, run all the way to the end. Because the moment you grant the state can take from anyone to give to anyone else, you've torn down the only fence that ever protected a human being. A line around what is his. Once that fence is down, there's no logical place to stop. Not his property, not his farm, not his church, not his speech, not in the end, his life. The confiscators always start with your wallet because it's the easiest thing to justify what they're doing. But the wallet was never the prize. The wallet is just the first thing over the fence. So I'd like to suggest we put the word communist down, or at least use it sparingly. The more we use that word, it's worn out and they know it. Pick up the test instead. Next time they roll out a program, don't shout communist. Ask a question out loud. Does this take from somebody what was his and hand it to somebody else that it never belonged to? If it does, you don't have to guess at the heart or argue politics. You know what you're looking at? You're looking at the confiscators and now you have a new word that they actually have to think about and not just laugh off or roll their eyes. It's not a slur, it's truth. You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. Oh my gosh. Oh, oh, Yesterday. I mean, I feel like we need a marching band. What they did yesterday in the House is remarkable. No balance books, no spending cuts. Next up, bill protecting pizza crust. They haven't gotten to the pizza crust bill yet, but they're going to. Don't panic, don't panic. Everybody I know, everybody on the planet is saying, geez, what if we could get somebody to work on pizza crust? But they didn't get there yet. But what they did do yesterday, man, you know, that whole fallback spring ahead thing, you may not have. No, no, no, watch my language carefully. You may not have to worry about that anymore. Did I say you don't have to worry about that anymore? No, no, I didn't say that. I said you may not. You know why I said you may not? Because the Senate is probably not gonna pass this worthless piece of crap. So the House. Oh, man, I just love our speaker of the House. I love the non speaker of the House. I love the House protocol guy. I like all the House members. I like the Houses that the House members live in. I just love them so much because. Did they take care of, you know, anything to do with voting? No, no, no, no, no. Well, they did compromise on that. Yeah, yeah. You know, there were a few that were standing up and they were like, that's not going to happen. We're going to Shut down everything in the House until they passed the Save America Act. But our great speaker of the House, and I don't know who else was involved, but they all got together and they said, wait a minute, wait a minute. Let's compromise. Let's. Let's just throw that into something else that the Senate's not going to pass, and then we can spend the day fixing daylight savings time. Is there anything better? Oh, they rang the bell. Voter id Maybe after hell. All right, all right, man. I need a marching band all the time for them. Seriously. Because every time they do something, it's like, I need a marching band because they have accomplished some. Let me just go over some of the accomplishments that have happened in the House and the Senate, uh, in the last two years. They have. They have. Okay. I can't think of anything that they've actually done, but I know they've done something, and maybe next time. Now, I can't promise this is gonna happen before the election, but can you imagine the magic if they could actually name a post office at this session? I mean, before we all go to vote, if they could name a post office, I'd be like, wow, I've got to vote for these guys. Why? Who? You're not with the Republicans. Did you hear what they just did? Daylight savings time. Of course, the Senate didn't do it well, but the House, they have the courage to say, no, we're not going to spring ahead or fall back. None of that stuff. They had that courage, and then they went and they went all the way to the wall to name a post office. Whoa. But at least. At least I have the satisfaction of hearing that while I'm in California. And being in California, when you hear about the spring ahead fall back daylight savings time bill, you think to yourself, I got it made. I got it made. So let's see what else is happening. By the way, can we get Annalina, Anna, Luna, Paulina on with us? I'd like to talk to her. I know we've. We've reached out to her office. I just want to know what happened here. What happened? Because, I mean, I really like her and I trust her, and, you know, she was like, we're not going to move anything. And I didn't. Nobody saw the daylight savings time coming. Nobody saw that one coming. I didn't even know that was in the lineup. Had I known that was in the lineup, I would have said, anna, are. You're not. Not. You're not going to. You're not going to hold up the Daylight savings time thing, are you? And she would have, of course, said, no, no, no, no, no. I don't mean the daylight savings time thing. I just mean all the other stuff. We can't. It's. It's. You know, when you're doing triage on the country, you're like, okay, you're hemorrhaging to death here. You're hemorrhaging to death here. You've got communists over here and you're hemorrhaging over here. What do you want to tackle first? I don't know. Daylight savings time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they took the. They took the Save America act, and they've decided in the House that what they're going to do is they're going to tuck it into another bill, a must pass bill. The Senate will never see this coming. Shh. Keep it to yourself. So they're going to put it in another bill that they have to pass. And if we all keep it to ourself, they're not going to pull that part of the bill out. Okay. They won't do it. They won't do it because they won't know. Because you don't know. I didn't know. Did you know about the daylight savings time thing? I didn't even know that was even a possibility. And boom, like magic, they passed that. So what they're going to do is they're going to put it in there, and then the senators will all vote to pass it because it's a must pass. And then we'll go, ha, ha, Katya, you just passed the Save America voter ID bill. And they'll say, what? This is an outrage. What happened? How did that thing happen? And then we'll all laugh and Thune will be there like, ha, ha ha, I was on your side the whole time. Or. Or it will just go to the Senate and Thune and his cronies will pull it out. They'll pass the must pass bill without any of that. And then we'll have the satisfaction of being able to stand there and go, see, it was Thune that did it. Oh, man, that's gonna feel so good. Then they're gonna follow it up with. With naming a post office. I'm telling you, that's the plan. That's the plan. Republicans, I don't know why you're losing. I really don't. I don't know why. I don't know why. Almost every single Republican I know, like, I can't vote for these people anymore. I don't know why that's happening. You respond to the people. You really do. It's so satisfying. When I heard the daylight savings time, honestly, I turned the lights down and I lit a candle because it was like conservative porn. I'm like, oh, man, we could balance the budget. We could do so many things. But the daylight savings time, oh, yeah. I'm not gonna have to spring forward or fall back. I got a date with myself and that bill on Friday. Oh, that's a hot date, I'll tell you that. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the Glenn Beck program. You know, I didn't get a chance on Monday to talk about the CNBC best states, worst states to live in in the country. Now, cnbc, this is a business, a business network, okay? And they are ranking now the top 10 worst states to live in for 2026. And they say they are placing increased emphasis on quality of life, one of the ten categories of competitiveness in our annual America's Top States for Business Studies. Okay? For business, it's our annual ranking of every state's business climate now in its 20th year. Okay, all right, let me just go through a couple of them. Oklahoma, one of the worst places to live. Here's what they said. Oklahoma imposes one of America's strictest bans on abortion. What does that have to do with business? State ranked 40th for worker protections. What do they mean by workers protection? They mean the right to organize for a labor union. I don't know the businesses that love labor unions. Okay, uh, let's see. Alabama, same thing. Weaknesses, worker protections, health and inclusiveness. Okay, Now, I mean, they get into some real hellholes, you know? Real hellhole. Like, do I need to even say more than Utah? What a hellhole that place is. Texas. Oh, man. People can't get out of Texas fast enough. Indiana, with just 779 licensed child care facilities in a state of nearly 7 million people. Indiana finishes at the bottom for child care availability. On a per capita basis, what's available is expensive. Eating up 15% of the median income for household. Blah, blah, blah. Quality of life score. The strength is crime. Low on crime, weakness, childcare, air quality and health. Texas, I love this. While Texas continues to lead the nation in attracting workers. Oh, I don't know. It's not just the workers that are moving to Texas. It's the business. You'd have all the workers in the world if you didn't have businesses moving in. You'd have a lot of unemployment there. But those workers are finding a broad array of challenges when they get there. They. The Lone Star State has America's highest rate of people without health insurance at 16.7%. Now, you don't think that that might have something to do with, oh, I don't know, open borders? You think maybe that percentage might be up because of the open borders? The quality of Life score is 78 out of 290 points because of childcare, air quality. That's one of the reasons, the strengths that they have, the weaknesses. Health, crime, border inclusiveness, worker protections. It's a right to work state and reproductive rights. Now let me just go through this. Health, I guess you have to have healthy workers. Crime, you need. Crime, you're going to have, you're going to have a problem doing business if crime is everywhere. But that's apparently a weakness. Now where would that be a weakness? It would be a weakness on the border. Or I would assume you would be saying, let's say Austin, which is a blue city. Houston, which is a deeply blue city, or Dallas, which is also a deeply blue city. Inclusiveness, okay? And worker protections and reproductive rights. I gotta tell you, at the office, as a businessman, because I just, I just want so many of my workers just to have abortions. And all of the women that work for me, they're all like, glenn, I can't work in Texas. I can't get an abortion. And I'm like, right. And that is so important to all of us here doing our jobs. Uh, America, worst place to live. Tennessee is one of them. Why? Inclusiveness. It's not the only area where the Volunteer State falls short. But they make no apologies for a rash of state laws targeting the LGBTQ community. Yeah, the so called bathroom law requiring transgender people to use facilities designated for their sex at birth. That's a target. They're targeting people. No, they're saying no. We're protecting the women and the girls from creeps in the bathroom. That's what it is. Sorry. I'm sorry. You were assigned that hose at birth. Go into the hose room. The state also explicitly bars localities from adopting their own anti discrimination ordinances. To underscore the point, Lee signed a resolution designating June. This is why you don't want to live in Tennessee. Designating June. Nuclear family month. You know what happens when you have a nuclear family? Businesses fall apart. You can't do business in a place where they. You know what I mean? You just can't. You're gonna do business where the families are strong. That's, that's what I hate about Utah. You know, you go to Utah, oh, what a hellhole that place is. There are people who actually believe in God and you know, the family is strong. You know, it's crazy. I hear people move into Utah all the time and they say, you know, it's so great here. It is so great. It's not like California. So great. The families are so great and there's so much to do for children because there's so many kids out here. You know, the only problem is all these, all these religious people. What do you think gave you the children and the families? Oh, so anyway, I decided I was going to put in my own recommendations and this is just for, I'm trying to think of, you know, because we often, we have a very big blue state audience, huge blue staters. They listen to this audience, this, the blue stators in this audience, probably 99% of the audience. And so I thought, I'm going to help them out, I'm going to help them out. And so I made a list, you know, based on a couple of different standards. For instance, I'm going to be maybe, you know, three lists here. The first one, if you're looking for a state that has the fewest people that believe in God, the highest concentration of Hamas supporters and the lowest, lowest marriage rates. Oh, and if, you know, no state is complete, you got to have fewest people that believe in God. You know, you don't want any of those dirty religious people. You got to be surrounded by a bunch of people who love Hamas. You know, they don't stick to that old idea of marriage, but they're also overly educated. These are the best states for you. Massachusetts, number one, Number two, New York, I mean Columbia, ground zero for the encampments. You know, so Vermont, least religious state in America and one of the lowest marriage rates. But the great thing is education levels far above, you know, where, where you would think Vermont, because it's rural, you'd think that they'd just be bunch of dummies, but they're not. They're over educated. And that's why they're the least religious state and the lowest marriage rates in the country. That's what you're looking for. You're looking for Vermont and of course California or Washington State. Bottom five in religious affiliation, top 10 in advanced degrees, you know, and sustained activism at the University of Washington. So you got that whole thing wrapped up. Just live in Seattle, because that's not a hellhole. Now if you're looking for a different kind of place, maybe you're Looking for a place with the most morbidly fat people. You know, people who are so fat you're like, they're gonna die in the next 10 minutes. And you're looking for fat people who can't read and the weakest labor force. These are the five states for you. West Virginia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Nevada. Now Nevada, number four is really, because of the unemployment rates only behind D.C. and California. Plus rough. Roughly one in four adults lack basic literacy. So Nevada makes it. Obesity is only middling, you know, which keeps it out of the top three. But they're being pushed from behind, if you will, by D.C. and in California as a state. Now, if you're. If you want to live in a place where it's super easy to find a drug dealer and you want a lot of people living in tents, plus low test scores for your kids in school and the most outrageously unreasonable housing costs, you need to live in New Mexico. That's number one. Okay? Dead last in fourth grade math. And it's a deeply blue state, so you're going to Love it there. 16 points below the national average in 8th grade math. Newsweek and said that it fell another 13 points in 8th grade math from an already low base. And the American Enterprise Institute say it is chronically top tier overdose rate. And housing that's cheap on paper, but that's brutal because the incomes are so low. But you're going to be able to find drugs there. Okay, Nevada, bottom tier schools, Las Vegas, housing market prices are far ahead, you know, of what you can make there. And it's a wide open corridor for fentanyl and method. So you got that going for you. Number three is Alaska. But you got to live in Alaska. I mean it's beautiful and everything, but I hear it gets cold. Number four is Oregon. So again, if you're looking for drugs, I mean an easy way to get drug, you got to find a drug dealer. You need them in 10 minutes. Oregon's your place to be. Homeless people living in tents, hello, Portland, you know, and low test scores in school, but unreasonable housing costs. Oregon and course California. California is great. Now honorable mention here, Arizona and Washington just miss this list. But now let's just say you're the typical stereotypical blue stater and this is so bad. And your lifestyle is just calling for just non stop liquor stores and strip clubs and casinos because you're a dirtbag and you're like, I need to be surrounded by strip clubs, liquor stores and casinos. Where do I go? Well, not to Utah. Not to, not to Utah. No No, I couldn't, actually. I don't know why I couldn't put together the list of the top 10. I could only do the bottom 10. I'm sorry, the bottom five. So these are the places. If you are looking for strip clubs, you're looking for liquor stores and casinos. Here's where you don't want to.
