EPISODE OVERVIEW

This episode dives into a series of pressing issues at the intersection of culture and politics, focusing on Chinese student visas in the US, rampant data breaches, chronic disease in America, heated Senate hearings with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., vaccine policy controversies, proposals to restrict firearm ownership for transgender individuals, and recent maneuvers by the Trump administration. The panel’s signature wit, skepticism, and robust debate—often with biting sarcasm—are on full display as they examine executive actions, media narratives, and the erosion of civil liberties.

MAJOR THEMES & DISCUSSIONS

1. Chinese Data Breaches and the Student Visa Controversy

Timestamps: 00:00–13:00, 24:33–29:13

• China Hacking Every American:

  • The hosts discuss recent revelations about extensive Chinese hacking (“Salt Typhoon”), allegedly impacting nearly every American (06:20).
  • Quote (07:15, Pat Gray): “We’re finding out daily. Now, with this in particular—for sure. I mean, it’s out there, your information has been hacked.”
  • They mock the frequency and normalization of data breaches, referencing the TransUnion hack.

• Student Visa Policy Under Trump:

  • Widespread confusion and skepticism about Trump’s plan to allow up to 600,000 Chinese students in US universities.
  • Listeners are invited to explain the administration’s rationale, which the hosts find perplexing (09:03).
  • Quote (08:18, Pat Gray): “I don’t get it… they have already infiltrated corporations and universities and have spied.”
  • Criticism is directed at US politicians shown to have ties with Chinese spies, and at American universities’ dependence on foreign enrollment.
  • Later clarifications note that Trump’s “600,000” number refers to a two-year total (25:08), but confusion persists about replacement/overlap of visas.

---

2. Surge in Chronic Disease and the Healthcare System

Timestamps: 12:51–19:49

• RFK Jr. Testifies:
  • Citing new CDC statistics, RFK Jr. claims a dramatic rise in chronic diseases—from 3% in 1950 to 76.4% in 2025 (13:40).
    • Quote (14:00, RFK Jr.): “When my uncle was president, 11%. 1950, it was 3%. Today, it’s 76.4%.”
  • The escalation of chronic illness is called a “national security issue.”
  • Hosts debate possible causes: environmental factors, changes in food, preservatives, artificial dyes.
  • With tongue-in-cheek, Chinese hackers are even jokingly blamed for “hacking into our very bodies and downloading viruses” (16:20).

---

3. Senate Hearings: RFK Jr., Vaccines, and Government Accountability

Timestamps: 12:51–53:55

• Confrontations with Senators:

  • RFK Jr. is lauded for his combative style in Senate hearings, standing up to critical questioning from both Democrats and Republicans (13:16).
  • Quote (13:24, Pat Gray): “I love that he’s standing up like he is against some of these buffoons.”

• Critique of Vaccine Policy:

  • Senator Ron Wyden, Senator Bill Cassidy, and Senator Elizabeth Warren press RFK Jr. on vaccine recommendations and CDC guidelines.
  • Elizabeth Warren’s exchange with RFK Jr. (30:10–33:42):
    • Warren accuses Kennedy of breaking a promise to provide access to vaccines; Kennedy fires back, questioning the clinical basis for certain recommendations and calling out her pharmaceutical donations.
      • Quote (32:15, Pat Gray): “That is so great, that he calls her out on the money she’s received from pharmaceuticals…”
  • On CDC’s schedule: By age 18, children now receive 76 vaccine shots (“seems to be the same number [as] the percentage of people with chronic disease”) (21:30).
  • Hosts question the cumulative effect of so many vaccines and suggest adverse effects might be underexplored (55:04).

• Broader Questions on Health Freedom:

  • Discussion returns repeatedly to the right to refuse vaccines, government mandates, and the need for more transparency, especially about mRNA technology (22:02).

---

4. Firearms & Transgender Rights: Can Trump Issue a Ban?

Timestamps: 57:11–63:40

• DOJ Proposal:
  • The US Justice Department is considering moves to restrict transgender Americans from owning firearms, following a recent Minneapolis shooting.
  • There's speculation about classifying transgender identity as a mental illness for legal purposes; the hosts criticize the constitutionality and broadness of such a policy.
    • Quote (58:42, Pat Gray): “Doesn’t seem constitutional to me.”
    • Quote (58:44, Jeff Fisher): “Don’t bug me down with your little Constitution thing. We’re not worried about that right now.”
  • The hosts grapple with the difficulty of “blanket bans,” mental health criteria, and who decides firearm eligibility.
    • “Are you just a little trans, or are you all the way trans?” (61:57, Jeff Fisher)

---

5. National Guard & Law Enforcement Powers

Timestamps: 93:14–98:40

• D.C.’s Lawsuit Against Trump Over National Guard:
  • Lawsuit alleges Trump violated principles by deploying the National Guard; hosts discuss the Posse Comitatus Act and D.C. crime reduction attributed to the Guard's mere presence.
  • Discussion about effectiveness: National Guard hasn’t made any arrests but serves as a deterrent.
    • Quote (98:30, Pat Gray): “It’s just the presence that has made this incredible impression on people.”

---

6. Controversy Around Executive Orders and the Department of War

Timestamps: 121:54–124:21

• Trump’s Executive Order Renaming DOD:
  • Trump signs an executive order to change “Department of Defense” to “Department of War.”
    • Quote (122:08, Pat Gray): “I don’t really care. Do you?”
  • Hosts discuss possible messaging—the name signals America is now “on the forefront and taking, walking forward” (122:30)—but don’t see practical significance.

---

7. Commentary, Satire & Societal Critique

Recurring Throughout

• Sarcastic banter about politicians (e.g. Rep. Eric Swalwell, Tim Kaine, Kamala Harris name gaffe), big tech dinners at the White House, and the tendency to blame everything—from food coloring to foreign agents—for America’s troubles.
• The public’s pessimism is highlighted (Wall St. Journal poll: only 25% think they can improve their standard of living).

---

MEMORABLE QUOTES

• “If anybody has a good explanation for this, I’d love to hear it… We are very perplexed, absolutely perplexed.” – Pat Gray (09:10)

Transcript

[Pat Gray]

Coming up, we got a lot to talk about.

[Jeff Fisher]

We do.

[Pat Gray]

As per usual.

[Jeff Fisher]

In fact, one of the things that we do need to talk about is one of the things that we touched on at the end of Pat Gray Unleashed was this. China hacking has all our information.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

And we're allowing, we're still going to allow 600,000 students to come into this country. Yeah, no, I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

And it's interesting because President Trump said it was important and he said it was important like three or four times when he made that announcement. The 600 extra Chinese students are coming here.

[Jeff Fisher]

And, and really it's what it's been. It was under 300, 000 and now we're bumping that up to 600, 000.

[Pat Gray]

And that's, I mean, I thought, oh yeah, we'll get into it, we'll get into it because I think it's important. Yes, I do think it's important, but we'd like to get your thoughts on it too. Where are you? You know, for Trump supporters, there's been a couple of tough things. I'm a Trump supporter. There's been a couple of tough about those tough things and, and much more things that aren't so tough coming up in just seconds on the radio.

[Jeff Fisher]

Down the road where shadows hide Feel the.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Dark on every side Stand your ground when times get down Gotta face the.

[Jeff Fisher]

Dog and embrace the fire the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.

[Pat Gray]

Hey, welcome. Lots to discuss. One of the things we're going to get into is the fact that China may have stolen data from every American. Ah, don't worry about it, don't worry about it. We'll get into that and a lot more coming up here. Another week though, another breach. Speaking of breaches, speaking of stealing information, this time it's TransUnion, one of the three major credit reporting agencies. Hackers got in through a third party application and stole names, birth dates, even Social Security numbers. That's the kind of information criminals can use to take out loans in your name, commit crimes while pretending to be you, and leave you picking up the pieces. And the worst part, you might not even know it happened. That's why I recommend LifeLock. That's why Glenn recommends LifeLock. They monitor millions of data points every second, looking for signs that your identity is being misused. Things like suspicious credit applications or your info showing up on the dark web. If something looks off, they alert you fast. And if your identity is stolen, LifeLock doesn't just send you a checklist, they Assign a dedicated US based restoration specialist to fix the damage. And yes, it's backed by a money back guarantee. You can't stop every data breach, but you can be ready. Protect yourself with LifeLock. Join now. Save up to 40% off your first year with the promo code BECK. That's 1-800-lifelock. Or go to lifelock.com and use the promo code BECK for 40% off terms apply. Yeah. So data breaches aplenty. And we hear about it almost every day now.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely.

[Pat Gray]

Kind of amazing how often we hear about stolen data.

[Jeff Fisher]

We, we get updates in our email, we get updates in actual mail saying that, yeah, you know, maybe some of your data was breached. But we're, you know, we're working on fine right now. Don't worry about seeing it and it's okay.

[Pat Gray]

We'll let you know if there's any, any kind of problem.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right. And if there's a password, go ahead and change it if you want.

[Pat Gray]

A little late, but go ahead and try it, see if that happens. Works. I don'. It may not do you any good, but it will try.

[Jeff Fisher]

Don't worry, it'll make you feel better.

[Pat Gray]

Don't worry about it. Worrying about it now just, it won't help anything. So just know what happened, right? It's in my YouTube feed. I've been watching this guy who's a really good computer hacker and he messes with, and he messes with scammers, people who call old people, okay, and, and tell them that they've got a computer problem and then they get into their computer and they steal their money and all of those kinds of things. What he does is get in touch with the scammer, acting like somebody with a computer problem, and then he hacks into their system.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, nice.

[Pat Gray]

Fights it back and deletes all their information. So.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

It's awesome. It just, it's a feel good kind of.

[Jeff Fisher]

We should get him a map and show them where China is.

[Pat Gray]

Exactly. Because China is the worst offender of this. China has hacked into American power grids and companies for decades, stealing sensitive files, intellectual property like chip designs. And it seeks to gain, of course, an edge over the United States. But a sweeping cyber attack by, by a group known as Salt Typhoon is China's most ambitious yet. Typhoon experts and officials have concluded that this is a real problem after a year of investigating it. It targeted more than 80 countries and may have stolen information from nearly every American.

[Jeff Fisher]

Wow.

[Pat Gray]

Wow. They see it as evidence that China's capabilities rival those of the United States and, and its Allies. The SALT typhoon attack was a years long coordinated assault that infiltrated major telecommunications companies and others, investigators said in a highly unusual joint statement last week. The range of the attack was far greater than originally understood and security officials warned that the stolen data could allow Chinese intelligence services to exploit global communication networks to track targets, including politicians, spies and activists.

[Jeff Fisher]

Is that a problem?

[Pat Gray]

Not a. Not. No. Why would that be a problem?

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, for how long have. I mean, I'm just thinking about myself. How long? I've said kind of half jokingly, look, everybody's information is out there. You just have to try to protect yourself as best you can. It's actually true.

[Pat Gray]

It is true.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, we're finding that out daily. And now with this in particular, for sure. I mean, it's out there. Your information has been hacked.

[Pat Gray]

British and American officials have described the attack as unrestrained and indiscriminate. Canada, Finland, Germany, Italy, Japan and Spain were also signatories on this statement.

[Jeff Fisher]

There's so much information though. I mean, I will say, I will say it's, you know how you go through it that fast, but maybe with AI's help you can get through it fairly quickly. But wow, it's just so much information and it's just, we let it, let everybody have it.

[Pat Gray]

According to Cynthia Kaiser, who's a former top official at the FBI Cyber Division, I can't imagine any American was spared given the breadth of this campaign.

[Jeff Fisher]

Wow.

[Pat Gray]

Kind of a problem.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Which is why it's even more exciting now that we're going to allow 600,000 Chinese students to come to American University.

[Jeff Fisher]

Do not understand this.

[Pat Gray]

I don't either. I don't get it. I don't get it. If anybody understands this new President Trump plan where they're going to welcome all of these Chinese students into the US Who've already been spying on us, by the way, who have already infiltrated corporations and American universities and have spied.

[Jeff Fisher]

We know we've had spies in our government. We've had Congress people sleeping with spies. We've had Congress, we've had senators have an aide, their main aide was a spy.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, it's just incredible.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. I mean, Eric Swalwell slept with a Chinese spy for two years.

[Jeff Fisher]

We're supposed to just forget that?

[Pat Gray]

Like it's okay, he was on the Intelligence Committee. I mean, and he's still in Congress. How is it even possible?

[Jeff Fisher]

And he talks down to us when we bring it up.

[Pat Gray]

Right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Stop it.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, you should not hold office.

[Pat Gray]

But if anybody has a good explanation for this. I'd love to hear it. Triple A727 Beck, because I don't under. We, we are very perplexed, absolutely perplexed.

[Jeff Fisher]

Especially this.

[Pat Gray]

Why would you take a chance.

[Jeff Fisher]

Especially this time. We're already, you know, we're fighting the world over the tariffs and we're fighting the world actually over some of the sanctions against Russia because of the Ukraine Russia war or the Russia Ukraine war. And we've got leaders questioning all other leaders and we're still going to allow this main. I mean China just tried to just put a slap in our face with their giant military parade showing all the information that was hacked and taken and stolen from us.

[Pat Gray]

And by the way, the president made note.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

That that was.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

In part on his behalf.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

They wanted to show him the Chinese military. Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay. Well, all right, you did.

[Pat Gray]

I get your point. How about no on all your students coming to this country about. No.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

So it's, and you understand, I kind.

[Jeff Fisher]

Of understand why Modi is upset from India because he's getting, he's getting hammered with take buying oil from Russia. So he's getting that secondary sanction of the 50%, I think on the, from the Russian oil. Well, that hasn't happened to China.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

And so I mean, as Modi was, you know, our friend, I think he.

[Pat Gray]

Has a point there.

[Jeff Fisher]

He does.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Strange.

[Jeff Fisher]

It is.

[Pat Gray]

I don't fully comprehend it.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't either.

[Pat Gray]

I don't, I don't get it. But maybe, you know, maybe somebody can explain it to us. I just think it's a really bad idea. China has spied on us to the extent that most of their technology has come from us. If not all.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

If not all of their super high tech weapons and their super high tech computer technology and things like their deep Seek AI. I mean all of that came from us. So I don't know why you would potentially help that along by inviting 600,000 more. Because among those, are there no spies? Come on. Of course there are. Of course there are.

[Jeff Fisher]

The case that they're all spies.

[Pat Gray]

They might be. I mean I think it's pretty high percentage.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely. And there was one. Was it, was it Donald Trump or was it what's her face Levitt talking about how schools would lose money and students and go out of business or whatever.

[Pat Gray]

Which I find very difficult to believe. Yes, I do too.

[Jeff Fisher]

And so, and here's another thing. If that university is depending on their hundred thousand Chinese students and they can't.

[Pat Gray]

Go after that, so be it. Oh, well, darn the luck. Somehow these American universities got along just fine before we started this flood of Chinese students.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know when this was right because remember, we looked and it was, we, we thought maybe Trump misspoke because the numbers were under 300,000 of Chinese students.

[Pat Gray]

Still a lot. It was like 275 or something.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I think 600,000 was, we thought at least at the.

[Pat Gray]

Maybe he's talking about total international.

[Jeff Fisher]

Correct.

[Pat Gray]

But no, since that's not what he said, they've reinforced the 600,000 Chinese fig multiple times. Yeah. So I don't know. I don't know. It's a little bit, it's a little bit confusing. Yesterday too, there was a very contentious hearing involving RFK Jr.

[Jeff Fisher]

It was awesome. It was awesome.

[Pat Gray]

It was awesome. Because he doesn't just sit there and take it like so many people do.

[Jeff Fisher]

Which is a big proponent of Trump administration.

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

You don't. We don't take this anymore. We're not just gonna let you shout and scream and lie in our faces and play nice. We're going to fight back.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

And I mean. Yeah, that's enjoyable.

[Pat Gray]

It really is enjoyable. It really is. It's why we like rfk. Despite the fact that I disagree with him on many.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

But I, I love that he's standing up like he is against some of these buffoons that are attacking him on these things.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

Here he is though, giving us some incredible statistics on infectious and chronic disease in America.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

This morning I got a the latest numbers from CDC that 76.4% of Americans now have a chronic disease.

[Pat Gray]

Wow.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

This is stunning. When my uncle was president, 11%. 1950, it was 3% A. It's 76.4%.

[Jeff Fisher]

76.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

8 out of 10 of our kids cannot qualify for military service.

[Pat Gray]

Wow.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

This is a national security issue. When my uncle was President, we spent zero on chronic disease.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

We spent $1.3 trillion. It's the biggest cause. It's increasing all of the arguments that Republicans and Democrats have about single payer Obamacare or the various ways of allocate the health dollars. They're all like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. If we don't end this chronic disease, we are the sickest country in the world. That's why we have to fire people at cdc. They did not do their job. This was their job to keep us healthy.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

And I need to fire some of those people to make sure this doesn't happen again.

[Jeff Fisher]

So there's more coming up. There's more coming.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Don't get too comfortable in your offices.

[Pat Gray]

Right. Because we're gonna. We're gonna fire people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

And he knows they're going. They're going to hammer him with that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, my gosh.

[Pat Gray]

Fired people. And that was mean. Yeah, it was necessary. But it was necessary?

[Jeff Fisher]

You just hired her and then you fired her?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. He's gonna explain that.

[Jeff Fisher]

I know. It's.

[Pat Gray]

That was so pretty great. But. But was that stat? 11% under JFK. 11% chronic disease 60 in 60.

[Jeff Fisher]

I think it was 10 or 11%.

[Pat Gray]

And it was 54%. 3% in 1950 to 76.4% of us now have chronic illness, including me. I have it. You have it.

[Jeff Fisher]

I most certainly don't have it.

[Pat Gray]

Is there any disease you don't currently have? First of all, that's what we should go.

[Jeff Fisher]

I believe that your boy, RFK Jr. Has changed the parameters on chronic diseases.

[Pat Gray]

Is that why.

[Jeff Fisher]

So that's why.

[Pat Gray]

That's why it's a little bit high.

[Jeff Fisher]

6.4.

[Pat Gray]

I see. Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

So I feel like. I feel like I'm. I don't. I don't have to go in those parameters.

[Pat Gray]

Is he my boy now? I didn't realize.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right now. Right now.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, I don't know of anyone that doesn't have a chronic disease. I guess my kids.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, but if you're an adult, you probably have a chronic disease.

[Jeff Fisher]

You know, why is. Those damn Chinese hackers.

[Pat Gray]

That's what.

[Jeff Fisher]

Diseases?

[Pat Gray]

Yep. They've hacked into our very bodies and downloaded viruses.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right. Right.

[Pat Gray]

Okay. All right. Triple eight, seven, two, seven. Beck. More coming up in one minute. You know, moving from one place to another isn't just stressful. It's. It's personal. You're not just selling a house. You're closing a chapter. And the last thing you need is an agent who treats it. It like just a transaction. Real estate agents I trust is a network of top rated professionals from around the country who actually live up to the word trusted. They know how to price your home, to sell fast, and how to negotiate on your behalf. When you're buying, they don't just check boxes. They actually care. And here's the best part. They've all been vetted by Glenn's team. Every one of them is someone he'd feel confident sending to a close friend or family member. That's the standard. So if you're thinking of buying or selling a home, don't gamble with someone you picked out of a flyer or a billboard. Go with somebody who's been tested, trusted and proven. Real estate agents I trust will walk with you every step of the way, and they'll help make the process a whole lot easier. Go to real estate agents I trust dot com. That's realestate. Agentsitrust dot com. Ten seconds, then back to the show. Okay, so 76.4 of us now have chronic disease as opposed to back in JFK day 11 and then in 1950, I think he said either 3 or 4%. I mean, that's a staggering amount.

[Jeff Fisher]

3%. Something.

[Pat Gray]

So something is going on. I don't. I don't. Something environmentally, clearly something culturally. Something in our food. Something in our. I don't know. I don't know where.

[Jeff Fisher]

We've heard overwhelming amount of interviews talking about the difference in food, going to other countries and then coming back here.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

And so is it everything that we're putting into our foods? I don't. I mean, I personally, I don't know, but, I mean, we've joked around forever. At least I have. About, you know, I want the preservatives and the colors. I'm okay with that. Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Because we'd rather look at something that looks appetizing than it actually be good for us.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, we want it to look good.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

If that takes a preservative. So lettuce will last longer than a day in my refrigerator.

[Jeff Fisher]

So be good to me. Yes, absolutely. I mean, I think that may be an issue. Yeah, maybe it may be an issue.

[Pat Gray]

It may be. And we want. We want our apples to be super red. We don't want it to have some kind of. So we're. If it takes us some sort of unnatural dye to make that happen. Go ahead. Oh, well, go ahead.

[Jeff Fisher]

Because our body just absorbs it. We're fine.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, we're fine. Yeah. Yeah. As long as you can't taste it, nobody cares. But then you see a statistic like 76.4. Realize that percent.

[Jeff Fisher]

There is a problem.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, there's a problem. There's a problem. I don't know what it is. I mean, RFK thinks he knows what it is, and I think he believes it's. It's preservatives, it's food coloring.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's all the things that we're putting in our food.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. And.

[Pat Gray]

And is it. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe.

[Jeff Fisher]

It wouldn't surprise me. Yeah, it certainly wouldn't surprise me.

[Pat Gray]

Here he is, though, being questioned by Senator Ron Wyden on America's Health.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Senator, you've sat in that Chair for how long? 20, 25 years, while the chronic disease and our children went up to 76%. And you said nothing. You never asked the question why it's happening. Why is this happening today? For the first time in 20 years, infant mortality has increased in our country. It's not because I came in here because of what happened during the Biden administration that we're going to end.

[Pat Gray]

So put that in your pipe, Senator. Yeah, that's great. And it's true, though. What have you done about it? I mean, here you are questioning me. I've been in this Capacity for what, six months? You've been there for 20 years. Come on, who's the real offender here? It's obviously Senator Wyden.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Senator Roger Marshall talked about the numbers of shots recommended for kids. Listen to this behind me. Yeah, I know. It's gonna be hard to see from there. I can barely read it. This is the current CDC recommendations for vaccines for children. On day number one, they get their first jab, a hepatitis vaccine. By the time they're 18 months, they've had 18 jabs. By the time they get to be able to vote, they have 76 jabs. 76, huh? That seems to be the same number of jabs as the percentage of people with chronic disease trying to cure every.

[Jeff Fisher]

Disease with the jab.

[Pat Gray]

Huh, that's interesting. Now he's helping out, making the point with RFK Jr here. I think that maybe the vaccines have something to do with it, and I don't know if they do or not.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, we've explored that. They've done tests on that. Science generally says that's not the case, but I don't know. Are. Are these vaccines affecting us adversely in the long run?

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

And specifically, I don't know that we've actually had the full data on the vaccines with the MRNA technology that's supposed.

[Pat Gray]

To come out this month, right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, yeah.

[Pat Gray]

The vaccine information that he promised us months ago coming out in September. So let's see.

[Jeff Fisher]

Here we are.

[Pat Gray]

Let's see it.

[Jeff Fisher]

He's getting all bogged down in these hearings. Let's get to work.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. He had much more. You've got to hear him going up against Elizabeth Warren.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's so fun.

[Pat Gray]

It's awesome.

[Jeff Fisher]

So good.

[Pat Gray]

It really is awesome.

[Jeff Fisher]

Because she's terrible.

[Pat Gray]

She really is.

[Jeff Fisher]

She is just a terrible human being.

[Pat Gray]

Yes, as are so many of them.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's not a surprise that she's sitting.

[Pat Gray]

Right Next to Bernie Sanders, he's agonizing as well. We'll get into that and lots more. Coming up. Pat and Jeffy for Glen and Stu today.

[Pat Gray]

Pat and Jeffy today for Glenn triple eight seven two seven, Beck. All right, the White House did update the Chinese student situation yesterday. They explained it okay, a little bit, but this is pretty much what we were saying. They clarified that President Trump's remarks about Chinese students were not about allowing 600,000 new arrivals from the country into the U.S. instead, officials explained that the figure referred to the roughly 300,000 Chinese students already enrolled over a two year period.

[Jeff Fisher]

So which is what we said.

[Pat Gray]

That's what we said. There are 300,000 here. And so does that mean another 300,000? This does not dispute that President Trump isn't proposing an increase in student vision. Okay, well, he's not proposing an increase in student visas for Chinese students. The 600,000 reference references two years worth of visas. Okay, so 300,000 this year, 300,000 next year, 600,000 over two years.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, they don't, we don't get that. We don't.

[Pat Gray]

That's still confusing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Replace each other.

[Pat Gray]

Still confusing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, they do. Do they replace each other or do they stay?

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

You know, they're one year visas. Do they replace each other? They stay.

[Pat Gray]

I do not know.

[Jeff Fisher]

And further, originally we talked about them being around under 300,000, but I think the total number of, of immigrant students.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Was like 600,000. Right. Because that's where we got the original number of 600,000 from.

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

Which is why we thought maybe he's talking about spoke.

[Pat Gray]

Because he was talking about it was the overall number of what they're trying.

[Jeff Fisher]

To say here, I guess.

[Pat Gray]

But they didn't say it. They didn't actually say that. If that's the case, why wouldn't you say it?

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't.

[Pat Gray]

Because that's 600,000 overall.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

300,000.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Okay.

[Pat Gray]

On Tuesday, during the cabinet meeting, here's what President Trump said. I hear so many stories that we're not going to allow their students. I haven't heard those stories. Have you? I wish. I want to hear those stories.

[Jeff Fisher]

I want to hear that saying. We've been hearing stories about us saying we don't want them.

[Pat Gray]

But then he followed up with, we are going to allow their students to come in. It's very important. 600,000 students. It's very important. Why? Why is it very important?

[Jeff Fisher]

And that's where we got the. Help me with that from. From what's her face, Carolyn Levitt saying that the. We need those students to prop up the schools.

[Pat Gray]

Right. So no. How about no? Right. So the White House has posted a few things. Another post tagged White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. Nobody, I Repeat, nobody wants 600,000 more Chinese students, also known as Communist spies in the United States.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's correct. We don't want, we don't want 600,000 more.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

We don't want any.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I, I don't think that 300,000 should be here in the first place.

[Jeff Fisher]

Correct.

[Pat Gray]

We've already paid a huge price for that. Why is it our responsibility to educate China's people? Why?

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't, I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

Why?

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

We do the same thing with athletes.

[Jeff Fisher]

We sure do.

[Pat Gray]

The world's athletes here, we train them, we make them stronger, we make them faster, we make them smarter. Then we send them back to their country to compete against us in the Olympic Games.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, they don't.

[Pat Gray]

Why?

[Jeff Fisher]

Because they're, they, they don't have the right facilities to train and get up.

[Pat Gray]

I don't care. That's their fault.

[Jeff Fisher]

We want to. We want to be friends.

[Pat Gray]

That's the responsibility of their country. Let France do that. Let. I know, let Spain do that. Let China do that.

[Jeff Fisher]

We just take it. I mean, we just. We just like, oh, yes, of course we do that.

[Pat Gray]

And you know, it's irritating.

[Jeff Fisher]

They know each other. They trained together every day for the last three years and now they hate each other.

[Pat Gray]

It's an irritant. When you're talking about Olympic sports, it's. It's a crisis. When you're talking about national security, it's a bit. Yeah, it's a problem. So let's stop it. Please, let's stop.

[Jeff Fisher]

Please, let's stop it.

[Pat Gray]

So I still don't really fully comprehend. Is it 300,000 more than and not 604, a total of 600,000, or do they replace the 300,000 that are here now with 300,000 different ones next year? I don't know. Know. I don't know. I'm still a little fuzzy on it. They still haven't clarified to myself.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's really easy to fix that by saying none, none, zero. We don't need to clarify. We don't need to clarify. It's zero.

[Pat Gray]

I don't have a problem with that. How many American students are being trained in China? Pretty low number.

[Jeff Fisher]

I'm guessing it was 7. 700. I think it was 700, right?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Not 700, 000. I think it was.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, I think it was literally 700.

[Pat Gray]

I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Are we pissed about that?

[Jeff Fisher]

No, no. They're buddy with Tim Walls and we're fine.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I know.

[Jeff Fisher]

Tim probably escorted him over there.

[Pat Gray]

Probably. Probably. All right, so let's get back to the RFK hearing because there was fireworks about to happen between RFK Jr. And Elizabeth Warren. This is cut five.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Let's clear this up right now. Secretary Kennedy, will you tell America that all adults and all children over 6 months of age are eligible to get a Covid booster at their local pharmacy today?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Anybody can get the booster.

[Jeff Fisher]

Booster.

[Elizabeth Warren]

I'm sorry?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Anybody can get it?

[Elizabeth Warren]

Anybody?

[Jeff Fisher]

Anybody.

[Elizabeth Warren]

You're saying that is now the official rule of hhs? Anybody is eligible to get a booster by just walking into the pharmacy?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

It's not recommended for healthy people.

[Elizabeth Warren]

No, no. If you don't recommend, then the consequence of that in many states is that you can't walk into a pharmacy and get one. It means insurance companies don't have to cover the $200 you're saving cost. As Senator Dr. Cassidy said, you are effectively denying people Vaccines.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

We're not going to recommend a product for which there's no clinical data for that indication. Is that what I should be doing?

[Elizabeth Warren]

What you should be doing is honoring your promise that you made when you were looking to get confirmed in this job.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

You're going like this.

[Elizabeth Warren]

That is. You promised that you would not take away vaccines from any. Anyone who wanted them.

[Pat Gray]

He's not doing that.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Just change the classification of the COVID vaccine.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I'm not taking them away from people. Senator.

[Elizabeth Warren]

If you can't get it from your pharmacy, well, most Americans are going.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

To be able to get it from their pharmacy for free dollars. Most Americans will be able to get it from their pharmacy.

[Elizabeth Warren]

The question is everyone who wants it. That was your promise.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I never promised that I was going to recommend and products with which there is no indication.

[Pat Gray]

When you said.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

And I know you've taken $855,000 from pharmaceutical companies.

[Pat Gray]

Pause it for just a second. That is so great that he calls her out on the money she's received for her campaigns from pharmaceuticals or. He didn't even say it was from her campaign. I mean, she might. Might have just gone into her bank account. I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

It may have.

[Pat Gray]

Have. But he's never promised that he would recommend that. Anybody can walk into a pharmacy and get this. You. You don't have to recommend it. I can go into my pharmacy today and get an A booster shot if I want to. A Covid booster.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, yeah.

[Pat Gray]

I don't know why anybody would do it, but you can if you want to.

[Jeff Fisher]

Believe me, the pharmacies are very good at reminding you.

[Pat Gray]

Oh, my gosh. They'll make the announcements in the store. Hey, by the way, since you're here, you might as well stop in for a get your booster and then tomorrow come back for another one.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thanks for calling. I just want to check out my prescription. Thanks for calling. First, let me tell you that you should get 18 Covid shots.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I mean, I don't know why. Again, I don't know why you would, but if you want to, you still can. He's not saying that it won't be available to anybody. And he never promised that he would recommend it, so let him go.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Did you hold up a big sign saying that you were lying when you said that? Because you are the one who said you would not take them away.

[Pat Gray]

She's an idiot.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I'm not taking them away from. Secretary, you want me to indicate a product for which there is no clinical data?

[Jeff Fisher]

Is that what you want?

[Elizabeth Warren]

Secretary Kennedy, you Said you would.

[Pat Gray]

It is what you want.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Now you do.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I'm not taking them away. Everybody can get access to them.

[Elizabeth Warren]

No, they can't walk into a pharmacy the way they could last month and get access.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

It depends on the state. It depends on the states a year ago. They can still get it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Everybody can get it.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Everybody can get it. Senator.

[Pat Gray]

So look who is clamoring for the.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Shot, by the way, taking away.

[Pat Gray]

Is anybody still clamoring to get a booster shot after all the information that we've gathered?

[Jeff Fisher]

Good question. And I should go in. I usually, I haven't gone into a pharmacy in quite some time, but I should ask the pharmacist that should. How many people are coming in for what's their. What's their. I'd love to know their day to day on people coming in, getting the booster.

[Pat Gray]

Supposedly California is going through a little bit of an increase in Covid this summer.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

I think it's gone from, I don't know, 5% to 12 or something. And so maybe in California people want the booster.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, surprised they already haven't had it.

[Pat Gray]

California. I know, I know. And after all that we've heard about this thing in the last five years, all that has happened and the fact that the, the virus isn't killing people really anymore. It's, it's, it's an illness. It's an illness. It's like the common cold.

[Jeff Fisher]

And if you have underlying issues, you need to be, they need to be addressed.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, but, but, but it's not like it was in the beginning.

[Jeff Fisher]

Correct.

[Pat Gray]

So based on everything we've seen over the last five years, you still want to run in and get another booster shot of COVID vaccine? I don't. Maybe some people do. I don't know. I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

I do see them, you know, online, obviously, you know, social media. But that's a very low number. Yeah, it's a very. When you see them on social media talking about being boosted, A, are they telling the truth? And B, it's a very low number.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I think, I think it probably is. But they had more.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Vaccines. I've seen the list for what's coming up next and that is the agenda for the next CDC vaccine panel. And first up is ratifying your Covid actions. Second is hepatitis B is on the agenda. So should Americans expect you to take away hepatitis vaccine access as well, even though you promised not to?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

As I said, I'm not taking vaccines away from anybody.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Same answer, right. You're just going to deny that's the answer. You're not taking it away. Let me ask you, is that the same game you're going to play with me?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

So you want me to recommend every product in the world without any clinical.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Trial data on your promises?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

My promise was to give a month.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Ago we could get Covid vaccines by just walking.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

You can still get Covid vaccines. You can still get the COVID vaccines and Medicare will still pay for them and Medicaid will still pay of the.

[Elizabeth Warren]

CDC that if she refuses used to sign off on your changes to the child schedule.

[Pat Gray]

This is fun.

[Elizabeth Warren]

That she had to resign.

[Jeff Fisher]

I know.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

No, I told her that she had to resign because I asked her, are you a trustworthy person? And she said no. If you had an employee who told you they weren't trustworthy, would you ask them to resign?

[Pat Gray]

Yes, I would.

[Elizabeth Warren]

So I'm sorry, but this is not what she has said said publicly.

[Pat Gray]

Oh, what a surprise. I'm not surprised.

[Elizabeth Warren]

So we're saying she's lying?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Every conversation I had with.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Let me get this straight. This is the same person that less than a month earlier you stood next to her and described her as unimpeachable and you had full confidence in her and that you had full confidence in her scientific credentials and in a month she became a liar?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Yeah, you should ask her what changed. And by the way, a month ago you were voting against her because you thought she was either incompetent, ineligible or unsuited to the task.

[Elizabeth Warren]

The knee to you and Donald Trump. And it looks like she didn't bend the knee. So you.

[Pat Gray]

So I guess you were wrong.

[Elizabeth Warren]

You are America's baby's health at risk.

[Pat Gray]

Oh my gosh.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

I can't.

[Pat Gray]

I can't hear any more from her. Somebody please, for the love of heaven, get her a Covid booster shot right now. Right now. Please. By all that is holy, get Elizabeth Warren a shot.

[Jeff Fisher]

The media is peddling slop these days. Better stay sharper.

[Pat Gray]

What is?

[Jeff Fisher]

You might end up taking it on the chin. Well, that's just nasty. Glenn Beck is back in a sec.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Having a safety plan is essential. If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm. Start smarter. Start less lethal. Start with Burna. The burner launcher is the most effective self defense tool available today without the legal, financial or emotional consequence that come from using a gun. I carry one myself. I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a burner too. I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just Moved out on their own. The new Burner compact launcher. It's the world's smallest less lethal pistol. It's concealable anywhere. It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes. It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack. No background checks. It's legal in all 50 states. Ships straight to your door. And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies. It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal. Visit Byrna B Y r n a.com and find the right launcher for your family. That's Byrna B Y R N a dot com.

[Jeff Fisher]

Wow.

[Pat Gray]

So we're. We're not even done with the. With the hearing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, the fireworks were awesome with rfk. It's just amazing.

[Pat Gray]

I think we might have time for RFK versus Bernie Sanders here.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh yeah. Bernie is just goes off it's deep end.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Every single Republican. I don't mean to be political here, Mr. Chapter has received PAC money for the pharmaceutical industry.

[Jeff Fisher]

Are they all corrupt as well?

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

And I'm telling you the American Heart association has been co opted by the food.

[Jeff Fisher]

Everybody. But you said it. But you know what?

[Pat Gray]

When you ran for president, you know.

[Jeff Fisher]

We have a corrupt campaign finance system.

[Pat Gray]

Maybe you agree with me on that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, you were already president.

[Pat Gray]

You got a billionaire behind it.

[Jeff Fisher]

You received $300,000 from people not from.

[Pat Gray]

The industry, people in it as I it from individuals.

[Jeff Fisher]

You corrupt. President Trump got $3 million.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Every Republican got corporate PAC money for the pharmaceutical industry.

[Pat Gray]

Democrats as well.

[Jeff Fisher]

Everybody is corrupt but you. Is that what we're looking at?

[Pat Gray]

I don't think so.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

And I don't even know what you're talking about.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, I think you do what I'm talking about.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I don't know what you're talking.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Are you saying the pharmaceutical industry was supporting my presidential campaign?

[Pat Gray]

I'm not saying that. I don't think so either. Every single Republican. I don't mean to be political. Oh, man. Agonizing.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know what you're talking about. You know what I'm talking about.

[Pat Gray]

No, no, I really don't. Yes, you do. Don't tell me what I know and what I don't.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, Glenn Beck.

[Pat Gray]

All right. Radio show comes up in just a few seconds here, Sam.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

And so he was accosted by several.

[Jeff Fisher]

US Senators and across the board. I mean, there were some Republicans that really weren't on his side either, so. Right, okay.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, yeah, we'll share that and much more coming up in a bit.

There. Some days, pain just ruins your life. It decides how long you sleep, what plans you cancel. My doctor said to me years ago, they said, I'm not going to cut into your back until you beg me for. That was 20 years ago. I'm absolutely to the point of begging now. And there is some pain that nothing, nothing can touch. But I'll tell you, Relief Factor has given me a long, long life away from pain in my back and especially this weird pain that I had in my hands that I couldn't even pick up a pencil. I couldn't put my fingers around a pencil and write for more than a couple of sentences the pain was so bad. Relief Factor, it is a daily supplement created by doctors that help support a healthy inflammatory response to your body.

[Pat Gray]

All right. Just to finish up on the hearing yesterday with RFK Jr because there was a lot of fireworks. It was fun. It's fun because RFK doesn't just sit there and take it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

And just listen to their nonsense. Areas with Senator Bill Cassidy that the COVID vaccine killed more people than Covid. Wait, that was a state.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I did not say that.

[Pat Gray]

Okay, then let me ask, because you.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Also, Senator, I just want to make clear, check the record.

[Pat Gray]

That's a question of fact.

[Jeff Fisher]

You also said that I also, as.

[Pat Gray]

Lead attorney for the Children's Health Defense, you engaged in multiple lawsuits attempting to restrict access to the COVID vaccine. Again, it surprises me that you think so highly of Operation Warp Speed when as an attorney. You attempted to restrict access. We all do.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

I'm happy. I'm happy to explain why.

[Pat Gray]

All right, go ahead. I have three minutes and 30 seconds left. Yeah. Don't you love how he brings it up?

[Jeff Fisher]

Up.

[Pat Gray]

But he doesn't have any time for you to address the issue. I got no time for that. Sorry, guys.

[Jeff Fisher]

Want to get my little shot in and then we'll move on?

[Pat Gray]

I don't know anybody who wasn't on board with Operation Warp Speed.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely not. It was awesome. We were excited.

[Pat Gray]

Yes. Okay. You're developing a vaccine that usually takes 10 years in 10 months.

[Jeff Fisher]

And we're going to do it. We're going to have it available, and it's going to kick the crap out of this disease that we're all scared of.

[Pat Gray]

Okay, here's the thing. When you get the shot, you can't get the virus. Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's what it was all about.

[Pat Gray]

That's what we were told. This is 94 to 95 effective. Yes. It's safe, it's effective.

[Jeff Fisher]

We have a tad bit more information now.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Because that information wasn't really correct.

[Pat Gray]

Because it was a lie. It was all a lie. Pfizer and Moderna and whoever else not.

[Jeff Fisher]

Being really correct means well, yeah, it was a lie.

[Pat Gray]

It was a lie. Not correct.

[Jeff Fisher]

I think that she's lying. Yes.

[Pat Gray]

Because here's the thing. They never did those tests. We were the test subjects. All of us. Thank goodness I didn't participate in the test, but many did, and a lot of them paid for it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

So they didn't do any trials with people or animals or whatever.

[Jeff Fisher]

And many of the. Many of the trials were halted. I mean, they started. They started them and then they stopped them.

[Pat Gray]

Right. And we found all that out after the fact. Way after the fact. But they tricked us. And. But if. If it would have done what they said it was going to do without a bunch of side effects for a lot of people. Yeah, it would have been great. We'd still be in love with Operation Warp Speed.

[Jeff Fisher]

And we had that massive study in Australia that we were all looking forward to, to getting the information about it, because they had thousands of participants that had taken the vaccine and we were getting information about that, yet they shut that down and all the information is going to be destroyed. So don't worry about it. It's incredible.

[Pat Gray]

It is incredible. It's incredible. And he's. I guess he has to answer to all of that. But back to the. Back to the.

[Jeff Fisher]

Here.

[Pat Gray]

It also surprises me because you've canceled Or HHS did, but apparently under your direction, $500 million in contracts using the MRNA vaccine platform that was critical to Operation Warp Speed, again, an accomplishment that I think President Trump should get a Nobel Prize for. You canceled 500 million in contracts.

[Jeff Fisher]

Now.

[Pat Gray]

I grew up in a middle.

[Jeff Fisher]

Class family, so $500 million seems.

[Pat Gray]

Just canceled. It seems like an incredible waste of.

[Jeff Fisher]

Money, but it also seems like a.

[Pat Gray]

Commentary upon what the President. President was attempting. What the President did in Operation Warp Speed, which is to create a platform by which to create vaccines. So this just seems inconsistent that you.

[Jeff Fisher]

Would agree with me.

[Pat Gray]

The President deserves tremendous amount of credit for this.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

Is this a question, Senator Cassie, or is this a speech that you don't want me to answer? I want to answer that question.

[Pat Gray]

Please, please, if it's a question, but be tight, please.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

First of all, the reason that Operation Warp Speed was genius is it's something nobody had ever been done. I don't think any president but President Trump could do. Got the vaccine to Mark that was perfectly matched to the virus at that time when it was badly needed because there was low natural immunity and. Or people getting very badly injured by Covid. But he was also brought in therapeutics like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin and protocols for treatments and all. And there were no mandates. And then.

[Pat Gray]

Okay, another question.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

So please, that's what I began litigating against President Biden's mandates now.

[Pat Gray]

So let me go on.

[Jeff Fisher]

And we have more information now about all the other stuff that you want to say. Yeah, absolutely. I don't know that Donald Trump needs a Nobel Peace Prize for the COVID vaccine. Vaccine, Warp Speed. But you know, sure, give it one. If you're gonna start throwing them out, go ahead. But absolutely, we just covered. I mean, it was fantastic at the time and we were all excited for it. Yeah, we've learned a few things since then, however.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, we were lied to, we were misled and we were lied to. And so. And we found out some things about the vaccine. First of all, not only was it not 94% effective, it was like 10 effective. Was it even 10?

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't even know. I mean, I would venture to say that's not even true.

[Pat Gray]

I don't think it was effective at all.

[Jeff Fisher]

Because then we. Right. Because then we found out that, you know, if we were told, you know, take it, and I mean, we're just relitigating the COVID But yeah, take it and you're not gonna get it. And then, oh, well, okay, you're gonna get it. Probably gonna get it.

[Pat Gray]

But it won't be as bad.

[Jeff Fisher]

It won't be as bad. And what you really need is a booster. Yeah. And you just keep getting these boosters and then if you get it, it won't be that bad. It's just. Yeah. I don't know that they're effective at all.

[Pat Gray]

And in some cases they were quite harmful to people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

I don't know how many young people dropped dead after receiving the vaccine, but it was a substantial amount.

[Jeff Fisher]

Really was.

[Pat Gray]

And then people with other side effects, you know, the inflamed hearts and all the things that happened. And you're gonna ignore all of that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Bill Cassidy and the long range health effects that happen that are now happening to people. And if you say, oh, well, were you vaxxed? You're looked at like you're out of your mind. But no. We were told when they started having all these symptoms from some other professionals that were shunned, by the way, and shut down from being heard on most social media platforms were saying, no, it's in five to six, seven years, there's going to be an even bigger problem with this MRNA shot. And we're seeing the fruits of that now. Yes, we are, but we can't. I mean, can we say anything. Is there anything to back that up? Not really. Just things that we know. I mean, things that we think we know.

[Pat Gray]

Circumstantial evidence. I will say this. Giorgio Armani just died yesterday.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

You five years from the vaccine.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's right.

[Pat Gray]

Struck down in the primal life. He was only 91. Who knows what happened there?

[Jeff Fisher]

I know.

[Pat Gray]

Was it the vaccine?

[Jeff Fisher]

I know. We. We don't know. We don't know.

[Pat Gray]

We don't know. But we lost a big. Tell us.

[Jeff Fisher]

They haven't told us what the cause of death was. We'll tell you that.

[Pat Gray]

Tell us. They're keeping that quiet.

[Jeff Fisher]

I know.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, a massive designer like Giorgio Armani dies and we don't even hear the cause of death.

[Jeff Fisher]

That was a legend.

[Pat Gray]

Something's up with that. Okay, so that's all we're saying.

[Jeff Fisher]

Rest in peace, Georgio.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

He had a fan of your suit.

[Pat Gray]

He had quite a run.

[Jeff Fisher]

He did, man. He had some. Quite a ride, man.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, he really did. But that was, that was just another example of the circus that is these hearings that occur in the Senate.

[Jeff Fisher]

It.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, that's incredible. Just an opportunity for Democrats and even Republicans like Bill Cassidy to attack RFK Jr because I. Because why? He's not in favor of every vaccine that you want to put into people's bodies.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

And mandates. You want to mandate it to people. What happened to my body, my choice to these people?

[Jeff Fisher]

That was his big problem, which he stated was, you know. Yeah. I was litigating against it because of the mandates.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. That's why a lot of us were litigating against it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

If you wanted to get the vaccine, I don't have any problem with that. Go ahead, go ahead, wear the mask, get the vaccine, do whatever you do. I just didn't want to be part of it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, right, I know.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

And they, that not having that. There were plenty of companies that are, are. Well, if, if it comes out that they were all in lock step, I mean it's going to cost them a lot of money. So they're, they're all continuing with the wall. We were fine. Yeah. We had a mandate, but we got rid of it fine and everything is fine. Okay.

[Pat Gray]

It wasn't so fine at the time. No, it was not where you were. You lost your job. If you would.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

If you wouldn't succumb to the vaccine.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. We didn't wait. Well, we, we didn't mandate it. We just told people they couldn't have a job with us if they didn't get it.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

What are you talking about?

[Pat Gray]

You can go somewhere else and work.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, we didn't, we weren't stopping you from working.

[Pat Gray]

Unbelievable.

[Jeff Fisher]

Incredible. And I will say on my ex account, jeffyjfr, a good point comes up. Commenting about the vaccines. You know, we talked about getting rid of all these vaccines and the kids getting 76 shots. By the time they're, I don't know how old they were, six or seven or something.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. By the, by the time they're done with all the shots.

[Jeff Fisher]

So. And they all have been individually. Right.

[Pat Gray]

So where they're 76.

[Jeff Fisher]

That sure is. But individually, you know, they've probably been tested other than the MRNA ones and have been found to be, you know. Okay, right. But together. Good point. Was asked, you know. But have they tested all the shots combined? Well, that's, that's a good point. That is a good point. A good question to have. Because it isn't just the one shot, the oyawa, that one, the mumps one. Gotta have that one to the measle shop. You've got to have that one.

[Pat Gray]

There is no way they tested them all together. There's no way that's ever happened.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, we're getting the test results by doing it Right. Same Thing we did with the COVID Right?

[Pat Gray]

Oh, that would be interesting to do.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

A Test on the 76 shots people get combined.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

And then see if that's a toxic mixture of some of sort. Huh. Interesting.

[Jeff Fisher]

I know.

[Pat Gray]

All right. Triple eight, seven two, seven, Beck. More coming up in one minute.

After joining the U.S. army, Thomas Kennedy served two tours of duty in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. And he earned dozens of awards and service medals throughout his honorable career. But while he was deployed in eastern Afghanistan, this soldier's life was tragically snuffed out. Thomas was killed by a Taliban suicide bomb. He left behind his wife, Cami, and their beautiful twins, Maggie and Brody, who were just weeks shy of their second birthday when they lost their dad. But because of friends like you, Cami and her children didn't just face their loss alone. Donald Towers provided their family with a mortgage free home. You and other caring friends helped them step in and offer a ray of hope to Cammy, Maggie and Brody.

[Pat Gray]

All right, welcome. Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today. Triple 8727, Beck County. The Justice Department. See how you feel about this. How does this hit you? The Justice Department is discussing proposals to potentially block transgender Americans from buying firearms.

[Jeff Fisher]

Whoa.

[Pat Gray]

In the wake of the deadly Minneapolis Catholic Church shooting conducted by a transgendered person, DOJ officials are mulling options the Trump administration can take to restrict the Second Amendment Amendment rights of some Americans. Some DOJ members believe the move can be approved as a follow up on Trump's executive order barring military service by transgender people. One option could see President Trump formally declare that people who identify as transgender are mentally ill and are not legally allowed to possess firearms.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's gonna have to be the mental issue, the mental illness issue issue, right? I guess.

[Pat Gray]

But just a blanket ban on transgendered people.

[Jeff Fisher]

I think that's Trump speak, though, right? That's gonna have to be if you, if you have a mental ill mental problem. That's been documented.

[Pat Gray]

But is transgenderism that mental problem?

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, that's what I'm saying. I mean, he's gonna stamp at that.

[Pat Gray]

Yes. I don't. I can't. I don't think I agree with it. Just a blank it on all transgender people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Really? You don't think that it's a mental illness?

[Pat Gray]

Doesn't seem constitutional to me.

[Jeff Fisher]

Don't bug me down with your little Constitution thing. We're not worried about that right now.

[Pat Gray]

We're not worried about that right now. That's the problem. We're not worried about that right now. That's why we are where we are where we are. We haven't been worried about that for some time.

[Jeff Fisher]

For sure. I mean, we heard. We don't. We have sitting senators that don't even know that where we came from.

[Pat Gray]

I know.

[Jeff Fisher]

In this country.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, we talked about this yesterday. The Tim Kaine thing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Unbelievable.

[Pat Gray]

That's incredible.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, unbelievable.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Where our rights. He didn't know. Do we have that? Just a little reminder. He notion that rights don't come from laws and don't come from the government. Right. That's what the Iranian government believes. Regime. Wow.

[Jeff Fisher]

That bases its rule on Shia law.

[Pat Gray]

And targets Sunnis, Baha', Is, Jews, Christians and other religious minorities.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr.]

And they do it because they believe.

[Pat Gray]

That they understand what natural rights are from their creator. So the statement that wow, our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.

[Jeff Fisher]

Is it?

[Pat Gray]

It's extremely troubling. So to him the Declaration of Independence would be extremely troubling.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. And then it describes among these, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

[Jeff Fisher]

Where are you getting this from?

[Pat Gray]

Something called the Declaration of Independence. Huh?

[Jeff Fisher]

That's something to do with the United States of America.

[Pat Gray]

It has something to do with. Yeah. And it was written by a Virginian, you know, like, like Tim Kane. Only in that they come from the same state.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's about it.

[Pat Gray]

Very unlike Tim Kane in every other way. I mean, what a. But that is our problem. Yes. We're, you know, that pesky Constitution, that pesky document that says our rights come from God so they can't be taken from us by men and governments.

[Jeff Fisher]

And all that gets you back to so is being identified as a trans individual a mental illness and that precludes you from getting a weapon.

[Pat Gray]

Exactly. Now we've discussed the fact that, that not knowing whether you're male or female or being confused by that is a mental issue. But does that mean you're violent? Does that mean you shouldn't own a gun?

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know. It's a tough one.

[Pat Gray]

That's a really tough one.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's a tough one.

[Pat Gray]

That's a really tough one.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

The whole mental illness issue, who decides who gets to decide that Well, I.

[Jeff Fisher]

Mean, we have to leave that to the professionals. Right, right. And we have to trust that the professionals leave it to Bill.

[Pat Gray]

Bill Cassidy.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, yeah, we do. So it's dangerous stuff. Yeah, it's dangerous. I don't know, it's, that's really hard because, you know, and now you're getting.

[Jeff Fisher]

Are you just a little trans? Are you a whole bunch trans? Are you all the way. If you're all the way trans, you for sure don't even get a knife. But if you're just a little bit trans, I mean it.

[Pat Gray]

We can't allow you even a steak knife at that point.

[Jeff Fisher]

Not if you're all the way trans. No. New. New.

[Pat Gray]

New, new. So I don't know. I don't know that I, I, but it, it is a very difficult. Because we've seen a lot of these shootings from trans people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, we have.

[Pat Gray]

And even the, It's a disproportionate number to their population, no question. And if this. So, you know, obviously white males have gotten a lot of heat and who.

[Jeff Fisher]

I believe have mental issues.

[Pat Gray]

Yes, of course. They do too. Of course.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's why they're doing. That's why they're committing the act that they're committing.

[Pat Gray]

Yes. I think it takes a mental problem. I think you're disturbed mentally if you're willing to, to kill a number of people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Now, do you anybody. Does everyone have to have a check off from a psychiatrist or a psychologist.

[Pat Gray]

In order to get a weapon? And the answer to that is no.

[Jeff Fisher]

I would say no to that. Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

You can't do it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. So what do you do in order to stop these mass shootings? It's really a tough. I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

I honestly, I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't really want to be tasked with the idea. You tell me what your idea is and I'll tell you if I like it or not.

[Pat Gray]

That's what we're here for.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

Not to make the rules. We're here to comment on them.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

I don't want, I like it that way.

[Jeff Fisher]

If you give me, if you say, hey, Jeff, it's up to you, well, then, okay, but you're gonna have to live by it then. You have to live by what I decide.

[Pat Gray]

And we don't want that. I promise you, we don't want that.

[Pat Gray]

It's Pat and Jeffy from Glenn and Jeff Fisher has the Fat five.

[Jeff Fisher]

All right. Yeah. The two of the Fat Fat five. Let's do it.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, Absolutely. Let's start with. There's a couple of recalls you probably need to be concerned about. Take a look at your egg cartons. The Centers for Disease Control and state authorities and the FDA are looking to investigate an outbreak of salmonella.

[Pat Gray]

Why does this happen so often? Not necessarily salmonella, but there's been a lot of recalls.

[Jeff Fisher]

Seems to be a lot of recalls, a lot of items. I don't know. I don't know. But it's good that we have the CDC and the FDA and every other government agency looking after us.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Because they're brilliant.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely.

[Pat Gray]

So, so good.

[Jeff Fisher]

This Salmonella outbreak. 95 people have been affected so far across 14 states.

[Pat Gray]

Sue any in Texas?

[Jeff Fisher]

No. Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Minnesota, North Carolina, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington.

[Pat Gray]

That's bad for those people.

[Jeff Fisher]

18 people have been hospitalized so far. Fortunately, no one has died. They traced it back to the Country Eggs, llc, which is this company in California. This Country Eggs, LLC in Lucerne, California. All right. Lucerne.

[Pat Gray]

Lucerne.

[Jeff Fisher]

Lucerne. Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

So these are Lucerne Eggs.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. And so check them out. Just be careful. If you find yourself with the symptoms of diarrhea, believe me, you' symptoms are. Check with your medical expert to find out if it's actually true. And then there's also pressure washers being recalled. 780,000 pressure washers.

[Pat Gray]

That's incredible.

[Jeff Fisher]

Were sold at retailers like Home Depot across US And Canada due to a projectile hazard that has resulted in fractures and other injuries among some consumers. So according to the recall notice, the TTI Outdoor Power Equipment is recalling certain models of their Ryobi branded aluminum electric pressure washers because the product's capacitor can overheat and burst, causing parts to forcefully be ejected. So that seems to pose a serious impact risk to bystanders.

[Pat Gray]

You think that's a real problem. Their solution, that's a real problem.

[Jeff Fisher]

So, I mean, there's been 41 reports of explosions, 32 people have been injured. Stop using it. If you have go to their website, see if you have the, the, the model numbers are correct. If they're correct, stop using them because you don't want that thing to explode.

[Pat Gray]

And then you just take it back to the dealer and you get a new one, Right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, according to the website, you just log on and what you do is if you have one of those power washers, you stop using it immediately.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

And then you put in your information and they'll send you back a refund, a full refund for a repair kit to repair it.

[Pat Gray]

A free repair kit which includes a rep. Have to fix it myself.

[Jeff Fisher]

It includes a replacement capacitor. What doing you are. You're complaining about?

[Pat Gray]

I'm not doing that. Are you kidding me? I'm taking it back to the dealer for a full refund. That's what I'm doing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, you know, maybe that's what I'm doing.

[Pat Gray]

Or brand new unit that didn't come from, you know.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, but wow.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, that's ridiculous.

[Sponsor/Ad Voice]

Really?

[Pat Gray]

They're expecting people to repair this kind.

[Jeff Fisher]

Of a new thing? I think it is because we. Not long ago another company company was doing this. Gosh darn it. Who was it? But it's kind of a. It seems to me, and maybe it's not, but it seems to me it's kind of a new thing that they're like, yeah, just send them the new parts, they'll fix it.

[Pat Gray]

No, no, no.

[Jeff Fisher]

I bought your product. I want it to work. If it doesn't work, wow, you need to provide me someone to fix it. Right? So I mean, that's like, that's like.

[Pat Gray]

When you have a car.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

A recall, you don't take it back and they give you a part and say, go home and fix this.

[Jeff Fisher]

But I think they might. They might start doing that. Right.

[Pat Gray]

Wow.

[Jeff Fisher]

They might say, okay, yeah, you know what you need is a new axle.

[Pat Gray]

So here's your axle.

[Jeff Fisher]

We're gonna send it. We're gonna Amazon you over an axle. Go ahead and put that on.

[Pat Gray]

But not here.

[Jeff Fisher]

We can't do it in your driveway at home. If it wasn't part of the recall, we could do it for you, but it's part of the recall, so we can't do it for you. Sorry. Luigi Mangioni, you remember him? The man accused of killing the United Healthcare CEO CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. He's currently being held without bail at the Brooklyn Detention center, right beside Diddy and Harvey Weinstein, I believe. Anyway, Sheehan, the online fast fashion retailer, has removed a listing for a men's short sleeve shirt after discovering that a third party vendor was using his likeness to move the merchandise. And so the product listing, which is no longer active, by the way, you don't have to. You can relax. Featured an image that appeared to show a man resembling Mangione modeling a men's new spring summer short sleeve blue ditzy floral white shirt. And it was unclear how the image was created. I don't know if we have. I sent him the picture. I don't know if we actually have it.

[Pat Gray]

So he didn't model for it.

[Jeff Fisher]

He did not. He did not. And it's an AI version that kind of looks similar to him.

[Pat Gray]

Looks very much like him.

[Jeff Fisher]

It does. But I mean, that's a tough call. All right. I mean, I know the companies. We've got stuff, strict standards. And we're conducting a thorough investigation. Of course it's a third party. A third party vendor. So it's not us. She is like, it's not us. And they're conducting a thorough investigation. But that's a tough call. Right. So you can't even if. If it was legitimately meant to be that. I guess that's a problem. I guess. But if it's just another model that kind of looks like him. So now we're saying that guy can't work anymore.

[Pat Gray]

Well. And he needs to go to brief. If he looks like a killer, you need to be in jail.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Right. I mean, I think we can all agree on that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, you know what? Yes.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

All right, fine. No problem. Don't do it again.

[Pat Gray]

Problem solved.

[Jeff Fisher]

Don't do it again.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

Be sure to subscribe to my daily show, Chewing the Fat, available wherever you get your podcasts. Chewing the Fat with Jeff Fisher. So Americans are now saying they have to do too much lunch. According to a Wall Street Journal NORC. NORC poll found that 70% of respondents said the belief that working hard will get you ahead is either no longer true or was never true. That's the highest share in 15 years. Not to mention only 25% think they can actually climb the ladder and improve their standard of living. That's the lowest since 1987. And roughly 78% of the folks don't expect their kids to be better off than they are.

[Pat Gray]

Wow.

[Jeff Fisher]

The pessimism cuts across age, income, education and gender. Republicans have a more positive outlook on the economy than Democrats. There's a surprise. One small bright spot. 44% of those polled rated the economy as excellent or good, which is up from last year. And the Wall Street Journal said that the sentiment held true for many demographics. People with college degrees, people without college degrees. Households making over 100,000 annually. They quoted an army veteran in here and an attorney. A 30 year old army veteran and an attorney. They quoted him saying there's limits to what hard work can actually bring people these days.

[Pat Gray]

Oh, wow.

[Jeff Fisher]

Nobody wants to work anymore, Pat.

[Pat Gray]

Nobody wants to work anymore. That's right. Did you see the poll though that showed President trump. Trump at 55 approval rating that came out, I think yesterday. 55.

[Jeff Fisher]

Is that good?

[Pat Gray]

That's really good.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, okay.

[Pat Gray]

That's the highest ever.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Because I think in any poll it should be, but it's not. But you know, because Democrats are meeting every day.

[Jeff Fisher]

Man.

[Pat Gray]

He sure does. He sure does.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's for sure.

[Pat Gray]

So to be at 55 with the beating he takes in the media. Yeah, that's like 75% to anybody else.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, that's for sure.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Pretty amazing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Cuz that man can't do anything. No, in fact, he can't do anything now because he's dead, right?

[Pat Gray]

No, it turns out he's not. Oh, yeah, it turns out he's not because you didn't see him for two days. So obviously I was told the first thing you do is assume immediately dead. Yeah, right. So ridiculous.

[Jeff Fisher]

That is absolutely, absolutely ridiculous. Newsmax Newsmax is suing Fox News.

[Pat Gray]

I saw that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Alleging the network has illegally cornered the market on viewership among conservatives. In a lawsuit filed in Florida, Newsmax attorneys argue Fox has long engaged in an exclusionary scheme to increase and maintain its dominance in the market for us Right leaning pay TV news resulting in suppression of competition in that market. Market that harms consumers. Competition and Newsmax. Fox leverages this market power to coerce distributors into not caring or into marginalizing other right leaning news channels, including Newsmax. So in a statement, Fox News did respond saying they can't sue their way out of their own competitive failures in a marketplace to chase headlines simply because they can't attract viewers. So good luck.

[Pat Gray]

Nice.

[Jeff Fisher]

Good luck.

[Pat Gray]

You know, I'm not a huge Fox fan. I mean, they're fine.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, I mean they're the channel. I mean, but come on, they're, they're, they're the channel.

[Pat Gray]

Of course they try to do what they can to beat their competitor and to keep them off the dis being distributed more widely. Everybody tries to do that. Everybody. They, they can't control what the distributors do though. They just make a proposal. All right. If you, if you add them, you're.

[Jeff Fisher]

Going to lose part of negotiating the. The deal. Right?

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Right. So they negotiate the deal, the distributor agrees to it and we're done. Sorry.

[Jeff Fisher]

Have a nice day. Yeah. Negotiate your own deal.

[Pat Gray]

I don't know how you get a.

[Jeff Fisher]

Word around that either. I don't know. Okay, well, one more here in the. The Fat five. Something you can ponder for the weekend, Pat. Okay, I've been pondering this for a couple days now. Earth. Where did the name come from? Unlike every other planet in our solar system.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

The Earth doesn't have a clear origin for its. Now it traces back to some old English or Germanic urd meaning ground or soil. But no one knows who first used it to describe our planet or why it stuck. Because Mars, Venus and Jupiter, named after Roman gods. We don't have any. Earth doesn't know no known mythology, astronomer or empire behind it. So it remains a mystery where the planets. Planet Earth, that name came from.

[Pat Gray]

So I've never thought of that. Really?

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, that's why I was pondering it the last couple days. I'm letting you go ahead and ponder it this weekend while you're sitting there watching football.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Think about.

[Jeff Fisher]

Or watching or watching the MTV Music Video Awards or listening to the new Justin Bieber album that just got released today or watching, you know, Walking Daryl Dixon or NFL. You can ponder Earth. Earth. Where'd that come from? Of. You're welcome. You're welcome.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, thanks. Appreciate it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Ain't no snake oil here. Just truth, grit and good old fashioned common sense.

[Pat Gray]

This is Glenn.

Having a safety plan is essential. If somebody breaks into your home or if you find yourself in a confrontation, don't start with a firearm. Start smarter. Start less lethal. Start with burner. The burner launcher is the most effective self defense tool available today without the legal, financial or emotional consequence that come from using a gun. I carry one myself. I recommend every family concerned about safety should have a burner too. I just gave one to my son and my daughter who just moved out on their own. The New Berna compact launcher. It's the world's smallest less lethal pistol. It's concealable anywhere. It fires powerful kinetic and tear gas rounds and it can stop an attacker cold for up to 40 minutes. It's easily carried in a purse or a backpack. No background checks. It's legal in all 50 states. Ships straight to your door. And Burna has protection for every member of the family, from safety alarms to personal defense sprays trusted by hundreds of law enforcement agencies. It's a Burna because your first line of defense should always be less lethal. Visit Byrna by R N a dot com and find the right launcher for your family. That's Byrna. B Y R N A dot com.

[Pat Gray]

Hello and welcome.

[Jeff Fisher]

Hello. We're busy. Yeah, we're in the middle of a conversation.

[Pat Gray]

We got stuff going on.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

So welcome to the broadcast.

[Pat Gray]

I love this, I love this little clip from Tim Burchett. I, I don't, I don't know who this person is interviewing him. But I, I don't know. Msnbc, cnn in something, I guess.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, it looked like they were in some closet. I'm not quite sure where it was.

[Pat Gray]

It did, it did look like a closet.

[Jeff Fisher]

Like, let's just go in here and talk.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, okay. But the interviewer accosts him on pronouncing. Mispronouncing Kamalism.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, yes.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. And here's, here's how that goes. This president pronounces her first name Kamala. You mispronounce. Pronounce it. Do you do that on purpose? No, ma'. Am.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't know how she pronounces it. I've never.

[Pat Gray]

This is the first time anybody's ever.

[Jeff Fisher]

Ever told me that. How did I say it?

[Pat Gray]

You said Kamala and it's Kamala.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Well, my last name's Burchett and I dare say nobody's ever Sean Hannity's never.

[Jeff Fisher]

It would never. Didn't even get my name right when I was on there.

[Pat Gray]

And I don't pitch a fit.

[Jeff Fisher]

So it, It's Kamala.

[Pat Gray]

I love that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

And then I will I stand correct.

[Jeff Fisher]

Granted.

[Pat Gray]

I love that, and I didn't pitch it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Why were we thinking about him, though? Was he in one of these hearings or something? Because all of a sudden, his. We were thinking about him and his. This is not the one. I was. The interview I was thinking of. We talked about him earlier today.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, because he got into. He got into a physical altercation with a protester yesterday. Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's why his name came up. So he. Yes, he's busy out fighting people on the streets over name calling now.

[Pat Gray]

Right. It was a brutal battle. A demonstrator approached Burchett with criticism on the handling of the war in Gaza and then later on bumped into it.

[Jeff Fisher]

You cannot have that.

[Pat Gray]

You can't have.

[Jeff Fisher]

Tim Burchell or Burett will not stand for that.

[Pat Gray]

Tim Burchett pushed the guy back.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, nice, huh?

[Pat Gray]

And that was the end of it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Didn't turn out to be a bloodbath. Nobody. Nobody punched anybody else in the face, so nothing.

[Jeff Fisher]

But the guy ran into a sitting congress person. We can't have that.

[Pat Gray]

Yes, yes. And it did. It did hack off Tim Burett's people. I. I haven't heard Buret talk about it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, but.

[Pat Gray]

But his people did.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's why his name came up. So we were thinking about his. The name. The Kamala thing. Yes, that's right.

[Pat Gray]

Right, right. So great. And they did make a big deal out of that thing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, they did.

[Pat Gray]

Because if you mispronounce it, if you said Kamala, that was somehow racist.

[Jeff Fisher]

That was a dog whistle. Yeah, it is a dog whistle. To racism is what it was.

[Pat Gray]

Exactly.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Which is weird because humans don't hear dog whistles, so I don't know how that would be a problem to anybody. If it's a dog whistle, nobody heard it. Don't even worry about it, then. Except dogs. Dogs heard it, but who cares? They're not going to talk about it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

If they are, we don't know what they're saying. So let's move on from that. It's just. It's ridiculous how people get carried away with how people p. If you mispronounce her name.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes, they do. They don't care about anyone else, though.

[Pat Gray]

How is that. How is mispronouncing someone's name a racist?

[Jeff Fisher]

You know exactly how.

[Pat Gray]

I actually don't.

[Jeff Fisher]

I do, though. No, I don't.

[Pat Gray]

I don't know.

[Jeff Fisher]

You do.

[Pat Gray]

I really don't.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Maybe you can explain it to me off the air. All right. More coming up.

[Jeff Fisher]

This is Glenn Beck.

[Pat Gray]

Jeffy's okay with all of that.

[Jeff Fisher]

He didn't technically threaten anyone. So just having brass knuckles and a.

[Elizabeth Warren]

Sword, that's not a crime, right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, sorry. Sorry to interrupt your day with my brass knuckles. Is that illegal?

[Pat Gray]

Did he hit anybody with him?

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you. Carried him in his trunk. He's got weapons in his trunk. I suppose he was trans. So we get to take everything away, Is that it that we're doing? Holy cow.

[Pat Gray]

Huh?

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, he didn't harm anyone. No, he didn't legitimately harm anyone.

[Pat Gray]

Sounds like he's about to, does it not? Oh, oh, and oh. So we're doing pre thought crime. We're doing pre crime now.

[Jeff Fisher]

All right then. Good. I'm glad he's off the street. You and Hillary are right.

[Pat Gray]

Exactly.

[Jeff Fisher]

Glad he's off the street.

[Pat Gray]

You saw how well pre crime went, right? They got. They got rid of murder in D.C. completely. It worked out really well. Really, really well.

[Jeff Fisher]

Good point.

[Pat Gray]

For a while, anyway.

[Jeff Fisher]

It's down the road where shadows hide.

Cozy Earth products bring next level comfort that shows up day in and day out. Let's talk about their bamboo joggers first. They're seriously buttery soft. I didn't know joggers could feel like this. Not like I'm jogging or anything, but I can wear them at home. You can stroll on the beach, even on flights, and they never lose their shape. And the comfort stays consistent no matter where you go. They'll totally redefine how you lounge and live. Now the Everywhere pant lives up to its name. It's lightweight, it's breathable, incredibly flexible, and yet still polished enough to wear out. You can run errands, catch a movie pretty much everywhere else. You can take them and wear them and they look great and they move with you and always look sharp. And my favorite part is how Cozy Earth nails balance between unmatched comfort and everyday function. They're game changers. And it's not just me. Everybody I know who's tried Cozy Earth is completely horrible.

[Pat Gray]

[Pat Gray]

So after u. S. Supreme court justice Neil Gorsuch wrote a searing criticism of a federal judge for defying precedent when the jurist halted the Trump administration's grant slashes at the national institutes of Health, federal judges named and unnamed are airing their grievances now in a scene of unusual pushback to the U.S. supreme Court. The controversy mostly stems from Neil Gorsuch writing on August 21st first, as SCOTUS in an emergency order, granted the government a stay of a lower court's vacating of the termination of nearly $800 million in veteran in various research related grants. Okay, do you remember that they, I think they. The Trump administration was cutting off grants to certain projects.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes, absolutely. Yes.

[Pat Gray]

$800 million worth. And the lower court said he. They stopped that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, he has to give him the money.

[Pat Gray]

And then the supreme Court put a stay on their stoppage.

[Jeff Fisher]

So they're unhappy about it.

[Pat Gray]

They are unhappy about it. Here's what Gorsuch said. Lower court judges may sometimes disagree with the court's decision, the Supreme Court, obviously, but they are never free to defy them.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

Right, thank you. Exactly. In that case, Gorsuch explained, this court granted a stay because it found the government likely to prevail in showing that the district court lacked jurisdiction to order the government to pay grant obligations because such contractual claims belonged in the U.S. court of Federal claims, not in district court under the Administrative Procedure Act. But according to Gorsuch, rather than follow that direction, they permitted a suit involving materially identical grants to proceed to final judgment under the APA and so on and so forth. So anyway, these lower court judges got together mostly anonymously, just to wine with NBC, just to complain about the Supreme Court.

[Jeff Fisher]

NBC?

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

So this is just a private little zoom call that somebody snuck into too?

[Pat Gray]

Nope. Several judges spoke anonymously to NBC News due to concerns about publicly criticizing the justices. Well, if you're not supposed to do it, then don't do it. But they did.

[Jeff Fisher]

Of course. One of them said it's okay because they hate Trump, right?

[Pat Gray]

Yes. So that makes everything fine. It is inexcusable. They don't have our backs. One judge also mentioned receiving death threats for rulings against Trump. Trump. You know what?

[Jeff Fisher]

I'd like to see that.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I would too. I would too. Plus, it is not the supreme Court's job to have federal court lower courts backs. It is the Supreme Court's job to have the back of the U.S. constitution. That's what they're supposed to rule on. Is it constitutional or isn't it?

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

That's what they rule.

[Jeff Fisher]

And if it is and it goes against the way you ruled, then you were wrong.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, right.

[Jeff Fisher]

Move on, judge.

[Pat Gray]

Another said it's almost like the Supreme Court is saying it is a judicial coup. Well, yeah, cuz that's what it is. Like this is a judicial coup that is happening right now trying to stop everything the President of the United States has been trying to do.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Another said lower court judges are frustrated because the rulings were so brief they couldn't take direction from them. Still another other, the Supreme Court is forcing lower court judges to decipher meaning from Supreme Court decisions as if they're the Rosetta Stone now. They kind of are judicially.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. I thought that they were actually these activist judges which we've seen in action over the last four to eight to 10 years. For sure, maybe longer, but for sure they've come to fruition in the last four to eight years. Years. Think that they're the ones that rule.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, exactly. Exactly. And that's how they're acting.

[Jeff Fisher]

For the most part they are, sadly. But for the most part they are. But from time to time, because for the most part they are. When they get their hand slapped, they don't like it.

[Pat Gray]

Oh no they do not.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, they do not.

[Pat Gray]

And these, I mean district courts in some cases are making nationwide rulings.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's a problem.

[Pat Gray]

You can't do that.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's a problem.

[Pat Gray]

You've got no jurisdiction.

[Jeff Fisher]

And thanks to, really thanks, thanks to social media and places like the Blaze and this program, the Glenn Beck radio program and Pat Gray unleashed, those things get light shown on them now instead of just sitting there saying how did that happen? Now we know how it happened and we find out that you know what, you shouldn't be doing that they're Judge Dingleberry from some small court.

[Pat Gray]

It. Judge Jingleberry in particular has been a problem. He's been a problem for a while. Is this is nothing new for Judge Jingleberry. He's been a problem for a while. But listen to this. This amazes me more than any of the rest because this was said by an Obama appointed judge. Listen to this. Who actually told the truth. One judge acknowledged that some lower courts might, might be overstepping, saying the whole Trump derangement syndrome is a real issue.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

As a result, judges are mad at what Trump is doing and are sometimes forgetting to Stay in their lane. That was from an Obama judge. An Obama appointed judge. That's incredible.

[Jeff Fisher]

That is. It sounds like that's a judge. That's a judge.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Doesn't it though? Which, which you don't expect anymore.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, you don't.

[Pat Gray]

You just don't expect something like that. So when it happens, you're like, okay, did NBC make that up or how did that happen? Because I don't understand. Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

And why are these judges speaking anonymously? You just tell them no comment.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

You're a federal judge.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Stop your whining.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

Stop your bellyaching about the U.S. supreme Court because you're not a Supreme Court justice yourself.

[Jeff Fisher]

Really?

[Pat Gray]

That's jealous.

[Jeff Fisher]

And you want more power, right? It is.

[Pat Gray]

And sorry, you don't have it.

[Jeff Fisher]

I want more power even though I'm a federal judge.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, right.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, okay. Calm down, Judge Dingleberry. We got you, bro.

[Pat Gray]

Again with Judge Dingleberry.

[Jeff Fisher]

Tick me off him.

[Pat Gray]

Also, we have The City of D.C. suing Donald Trump over the National Guard troops.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, wow.

[Pat Gray]

Isn't that wonderful?

[Jeff Fisher]

I thought they liked it. That was their deal.

[Pat Gray]

Didn't DC's mayor just.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Bowser was thanking him for it. Right. And the citizens certainly are so what the strange. The, the commission or the city council or the district Council or whatever, they're going there. They're unhappy with it. Okay.

[Pat Gray]

So they filed a lawsuit against President Trump and the military over the deployment of the National Guard in the nation's capital. According to the suit, Donald Trump has run roughshod over a fundamental tenet of American democracy. We don't have a democracy, by the way.

[Jeff Fisher]

You can't run roughshod.

[Pat Gray]

You can't. No. It's impossible to run roughshod over something that isn't there. Right. But the military should not be involved in domestic law enforcement. The suit follows a ruling from a federal judge in California this week who found that the Trump administration violated Posse comitatus. That's how people say it when they call and bring it up. You have to say it that way because that's the way the callers will say it when they call to complain about being violated. That bars the use of soldiers for civilian law enforcement activities, of course, but against American citizens. So they're continually screaming about when it doesn't apply. Apply. Now does it apply in Washington, dc? I don't know. I guess the judge will rule on that.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, they've extended them right now to November 30th. The National Guard is going to be in D.C. until November 30th, they've all signed off on it. Okay. All right.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, that's a little longer than I'd like to see it happen.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, we're waiting for another city to go and to make safe. Make a safe city. Right. We don't know which one that is.

[Pat Gray]

Yet, whether it's Baltimore or Chicago, if it's New Orleans. And the governor invited Trump to send National Guard troops in there. He's doing that the right way, and that's great. I wouldn't have a problem with that. When you're sending it against the wishes of, say, the state's governor, then it can be problematic.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

So I don't know. We'll see. This will all be ruled on, I guess, and then the federal judges will whine about whatever decision the Supreme Court reaches.

[Jeff Fisher]

But, you know, while all this is going on, people have to suffer through crime, Pat. So we need to get it taken care of. We need to get people. We need to be. People need to be safe. They need to have good parks to play in.

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

They need to have clean streets.

[Pat Gray]

Need to walk up and down the street without fear.

[Jeff Fisher]

Have you ever found out what they did with all the homeless people?

[Pat Gray]

People?

[Jeff Fisher]

Or do we just.

[Pat Gray]

I haven't heard.

[Jeff Fisher]

I thought we were. I mean, we just got rid of them.

[Pat Gray]

They got them all home.

[Jeff Fisher]

Do they get.

[Pat Gray]

They got them all home.

[Jeff Fisher]

Get them outside of the district. We just push them outside the line and that's where they're at now. Or.

[Pat Gray]

I have not heard. But they. They wound up. Last I heard, was like, 43 homeless camps. They.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, there was a lot.

[Pat Gray]

Eliminated.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, that's.

[Pat Gray]

That's, That's a lot.

[Jeff Fisher]

Quite a few people. Yeah, that's quite a few people. Probably, you know, I. We're. We're supposed to care, so. Okay, so let's. Let's care. But I mean, caring is what, just chipping them to the city line and saying, have a nice day?

[Pat Gray]

No, I. Hopefully they're in homeless shelters. I would like to think that they moved them on to homeless shelters.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay. Those shelters were there before they were living on the streets.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Yes. But maybe they've been strongly encouraged to use the shelter.

[Jeff Fisher]

Sure, they have.

[Pat Gray]

Rather than a tent city set up in downtown D.C. a little bit better.

[Jeff Fisher]

You're not doing that anymore? No, we're not doing that. At least until after November 30th.

[Pat Gray]

Exactly.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

You know, and they. I mean, it has worked in D.C. right. It's. It's lowered the violent crime rate. Yeah, that's for sure. Violent crime. I heard a statistic yesterday, a 48. Down 48%. Murder was down 100% for a while, but I think they. They wound up having one.

[Jeff Fisher]

Some of those numbers seem like they should be higher. You know, I mean, we got National Guard wandering around and police wandering around and feel like it should be closer to 100.

[Pat Gray]

You know, I was on Sarah Gonzalez's show yesterday, and we were talking about the fact that of all the arrests that have taken place in Washington, D.C. okay, how many of those were made by the National Guard that's been deployed there?

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, you know, do you know the. The percentage? Because it's zero. None. No arrest.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's made up. They're out there arresting people, dragging people. They're disappearing people.

[Pat Gray]

That's what's happening, Right? That's what you're led to believe. But the National Guard is just a presence on the streets. And that. That I think, discourages is a deterrent of a cell. Yeah, it's a deterrent. It's just the presence that has made this incredible impression on people.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

So it's kind of interesting because they're not making arrests. Even though we talked about thousands of arrests, but none of them by the National.

[Jeff Fisher]

Wait until the police show up to arrest them. Yeah, they don't actually arrest them. They. Right, they just detain them until they get arrested.

[Pat Gray]

Apparently. Yes, they.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay, yes. I mean, I'm sure they're exactly. That guy just committed a crime. We can't arrest them, so let him go. I'm sure that's not happening.

[Pat Gray]

No, no. But I'm sure that they're, you know, involved in some way as they wait for the officers to arrive and make the arrest. But it's interesting because you would think that they're the ones who were enforcing and they're not. They're kind of. No, because then you've got.

[Jeff Fisher]

I know that. But that they're getting around that by just. We're not. We're not arresting you. We're just. We're detaining you for a minute, for a second.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Until someone's gonna come here and arrest you.

[Pat Gray]

What we're doing is.

[Jeff Fisher]

They kinda are.

[Pat Gray]

What we're doing really is hanging out with you for a few minutes. We're just hanging out on a street corner.

[Jeff Fisher]

Hanging out here.

[Pat Gray]

That's all we're doing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, look, here comes some police now.

[Pat Gray]

Oh, hey. Okay, we're not gonna hang out. Out with you anymore. Hey, yeah, you're hanging out with this officer now. All right. More coming up in one minute.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's the good question right there.

[Pat Gray]

Is he not?

[Jeff Fisher]

He's going to be even more obnoxious because his Philadelphia Eagles won last night.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. Yeah, that's true.

[Jeff Fisher]

It just beat the Cowboys 24 to 20 and game was delayed by weather. Big surprise why every stadium should be domed in the NFL. Ridiculous. It makes my. It makes my case. It was the first game of the NFL season in 2020. Makes my case. Case. How long was your stadium? I don't know.

[Pat Gray]

Due to lightning.

[Jeff Fisher]

It was like an hour and a half, two hours.

[Pat Gray]

Oh, was it that long? Oh, wow. I completely forgot about the game.

[Jeff Fisher]

So I didn't see it doped would be going. The games are worth way too much money to be worried about weather.

[Pat Gray]

Well, yeah, to the networks, to the NFL, to everybody, to the.

[Jeff Fisher]

The humans.

[Pat Gray]

All of it did. It didn't used to be though. It tells you how much society has changed. We didn't used to have delays, indoor or outdoor, because of light, because of weather.

[Jeff Fisher]

We did not. And I will say it didn't happen. No, it didn't. And I will say this to where they were being really. I watched the first half and the first half. I mean the Very first play, the kickoff, guy got injured, so it was delayed. Another Took him forever to get him off the field. I don't know why. And then the Philadelphia Eagles top defensive line spit on Dak Prescott. So he gets kicked out of the game.

[Pat Gray]

Did he really?

[Jeff Fisher]

He gets kicked out of the game before the game actually even started? Really? For him?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, it was after the opening kickoff, right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Yeah. They were out there waiting for them to take care of the guy that was injured. That took forever to get off the field.

[Pat Gray]

And so he just walked over and spit.

[Jeff Fisher]

They were jawing each other, and he walked up to Dak, and as he was backing up, Dak leaned in to say something and he just spit on him. And the ref was right there, you know, so it's like you.

[Pat Gray]

That.

[Jeff Fisher]

You're gone. Have a nice day. Take care. And I saw a couple other penalties that they called that the NFL apparently is trying to get rid of this. They don't want taunting anymore, which is kind of sad, you know, like, kind of sad. I mean, that's the. Well, yeah, I mean, the guy got up.

[Pat Gray]

It's been that way for a while, but the guy.

[Jeff Fisher]

Well, they're enforcing it. Like, the guy got up a tackle and after a tackle, and he started and got a penalty for it. And I thought, okay, well, yeah, that's.

[Pat Gray]

Been a penalty for a while. You got to move away from the guy.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. It's just.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

I don't like it. I don't like it. It should be able to talk. That's the NFL.

[Pat Gray]

You should be able to stand over them and growl or flex.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely.

[Pat Gray]

Or call them a. Or whatever you want.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely. Name names. Can't hurt me. It doesn't matter.

[Pat Gray]

It used to be our theory. No sticks and stones.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Break my bones.

[Jeff Fisher]

Not anymore, though.

[Pat Gray]

The names are what really hurts me. That's our theory. Now.

[Jeff Fisher]

That is our theory. Now, that's.

[Pat Gray]

Sticks and stones might break my bones, but please don't call me any.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, no, don't call me that. I would be so sad. I don't identify as that. I identify as something else. Yeah, I can't.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, I know. I know. And that shouldn't. That shouldn't be involved in football.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, it should not, but it is.

[Pat Gray]

And it. And seriously, the taunting thing has been a rule for a while. You know, the excessive celebrating over somebody. They're going to call that.

[Jeff Fisher]

I just feel like it was. I feel like what they call. What I saw them call last night was. Wouldn't have been taunting in the. In the Last couple years. And so I guess they're just probably.

[Pat Gray]

Getting more strict would be my guess.

[Jeff Fisher]

Kind of, you know, cuz.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, okay, I know, I know.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

All right. We were talking about the National Guard situation. Meanwhile, Illinois governor and Chicago, Chicago's Mayor Brendan Johnson are still radically opposed to getting any help from President Trump. I, I guess they're perfectly content with the 58 shootings and eight deaths every week.

[Jeff Fisher]

Certainly appears that way.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Look, big cities have crime.

[Pat Gray]

Ask you this though. What if. What happened to the, the. Well, if it saves one life, it's worth it. What happened to that theory from the left? We used to hear that on every. Everything, every issue, everything. They don't feel that way anymore.

[Jeff Fisher]

Cuz they, they leaned into abortion extra heavy, extra hard and they can't. That kind of even they realize does spoil the abortion. They realize that. Even they realize that.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, that argument just doesn't, it doesn't quite cover it.

[Jeff Fisher]

This is Glenn Beck.

[Pat Gray]

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today. Triple 8727 Beck. A lot of people are upset over a little dinner that occurred at the.

[Jeff Fisher]

White House last night, that's for sure. Now this to me is an example why we need a ballroom at the White House. Because when I see the picture of all them sitting around the table in this little room at the White House. I see how cramped they are.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

But it's not right. It is. It is not right. It is not right.

[Pat Gray]

You know what we need is a 90,000 square foot ballroom.

[Jeff Fisher]

Thank you.

[Pat Gray]

That's what we need. Well, at the White House.

[Jeff Fisher]

Absolutely, Absolutely.

[Pat Gray]

So maybe they could work on that.

[Jeff Fisher]

They are.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

They are.

[Pat Gray]

What a coincidence.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. That's weird. So Donald Trump with Melania was there as well. Wow. Holy cow. So they had Bill Gates, Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg.

[Pat Gray]

Bill Gates was at this dinner?

[Jeff Fisher]

Yep.

[Pat Gray]

I'm not sure I knew that. I knew he was meeting with Zuckerberg. Bill Gates.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yep. Bill Gates sitting right next to Melania. Donald. Melania, Bill.

[Pat Gray]

Okay.

[Jeff Fisher]

Zuckerberg was to the right of Donald. I don't see Tim. Where they stick. Tim. Oh, Tim's right. Sitting across from Zuckerberg, who. Tim is on the other side of the table. Ooh. He was probably mad about that. But, you know, I guess they were talking about. They were saying that this was, you know, the Silicon Valley power players, and we want to get people here and talk about innovation and we want to boost investment in semiconductor production and AI and so apparently. Oh, they were initially supposed to happen. This was supposed to happen in the new Rose garden, but that got moved inside because of weather. So the rose garden should be domed, just like the ballroom.

[Pat Gray]

Right?

[Jeff Fisher]

Exactly. Put it under a dome, we'll be good. So, yeah, it's really strange. You know, they're all.

[Pat Gray]

So it's probably part of the negotiating process. Right. He's probably trying to get them to invest even more in the United States.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Interesting that Elon wasn't there.

[Pat Gray]

Ah, isn't that.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, that's a. That's a big player in the game.

[Pat Gray]

Sure is.

[Jeff Fisher]

In fact, the biggest.

[Pat Gray]

If you're going to talk about AI and not invite Elon, that tells you something.

[Jeff Fisher]

It kind of does.

[Pat Gray]

Right. With Grock 4 being. I don't know. Are they in. Is it in the lead now over Chad GPT5 or whatever that is? It's pretty close. It's between the two of them.

[Jeff Fisher]

And then there's. There's Gemini and then open AI. Right. So, yeah.

[Pat Gray]

And I think even more than that.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, yeah. I think. I think open A. I think Sam Altman was there as well. Yeah, it was. He's listed on this list of being there.

[Pat Gray]

Was Joe Gabbio there, the billionaire entrepreneur who started Airbnb?

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, I don't know. I don't know. It doesn't. I don't have the full guess.

[Pat Gray]

He has been Getting a lot of flack lately because he voted for Donald Trump. And I guess you're not supposed to, if. If anybody. If you're a billionaire now, I guess the impression is that you got to vote for a Democratic. Isn't that weird?

[Jeff Fisher]

That is.

[Pat Gray]

We've come a long way on that.

[Jeff Fisher]

We sure have.

[Pat Gray]

It used to be the perception was that all Democrat, all billionaires voted Republican. Now it's the exact opposite of that.

[Jeff Fisher]

I'm not maga. I'm just investing in the country.

[Pat Gray]

Right. That's right.

[Jeff Fisher]

To do that, I have to deal with, you know, that guy who's in the office.

[Pat Gray]

I don't think Gabbia really even couches it like that. He kind of says he just wasn't satisfied with Democrats.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right, right, right, right. Yeah, he. He did.

[Pat Gray]

He said in mid two, in mid 2021, the activity at the border caught my attention. And I remember thinking, what's going on with this situation? Yeah, I remember that too, Joe.

[Jeff Fisher]

No kidding. Welcome to the party.

[Pat Gray]

We all kind of remember that moment where we thought, is it okay that 10 million illegals are flooding across our border every year? I don't know know if I like.

[Jeff Fisher]

All these people just standing around for what's happening.

[Pat Gray]

Then he said, listen to this. It seems as if there's no border. Yeah. Yeah, Joe, it kind of does seem.

[Jeff Fisher]

Like that, doesn't it?

[Pat Gray]

And as it got worse that year, I felt as if I needed to understand this problem more. So I reached out to my friends from the Democratic side of the House at all levels, from the highest level, all the way down, down. He says, I got some answers but felt unfulfilled. I don't know what answer you could have gotten to fulfill you from Democrats there. They had no explanation for that. No explanation other than, well, we're not xenophobic like the Republicans are. I mean, what. What. What is your explanation gonna be for not protecting the border? The border's secure. Maybe you.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, well, we have authority, but these people are leaving terrible situations, and we need to help them out.

[Pat Gray]

So anyway, he went on to say that he wound up calling Jared Kushner, the president's son in law, right. And asked him to explain what's going on at the border. He says, I get on the phone with Jared and say, hey, can you help me? Fill in the gaps for me? Like, what am I missing here? Is this normal?

[Jeff Fisher]

And Jared said, listen up, stupid you.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, like, it seems there's no enforcement of our own border. Like, don't nations need borders to be a Nation. Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

And so he put me on this curriculum of just talking to experts in the field. And I remember just being like, holy cow, this is crazy. Like, this is not right. Isn't that great?

[Jeff Fisher]

That's awesome.

[Pat Gray]

It's fun to see somebody come around like that, though.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Somebody who is very supportive of Democrats in the past and then sees a problem. Problem. Sees Democrats have no clue as to.

[Jeff Fisher]

How to deal with defense. These guys. And in defense of a lot of these billionaires, you know, they're busy building their brand, whatever it may be. And I, I, I get that they aren't as focused on many other things than they are just building what they have.

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

And that's why they're a billionaire, by the way.

[Pat Gray]

Right. And Joe Gabbia, by the way, stepped away from Airbnb. He wants to make that very clear because he knows that now Airbnb is going to be affected by this political points of view now.

[Jeff Fisher]

Right.

[Pat Gray]

And so he made it sure to say my views are my own and are in no way reflective of the company, which I have no part of it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Except every headline is Airbnb is the first thing you see.

[Pat Gray]

Yes.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

Airbnb former head says that he who says he doesn't have anything to do with the company, but they still get that first billing of Airbnb.

[Pat Gray]

And here's, here's a good indication of that. New York City Council member Tiffany Cabin writes on Twitter, gross. Airbnb's co founder Joe Gabbia spreading anti immigrant hate. Is that what that was? Because I didn't hear any hate from anybody at all. Spreading anti immigrant hate on the podcast of a fascist who delights in separating families and disappearing people. Oh, it's agonizing.

[Jeff Fisher]

Is absolutely agonizing.

[Pat Gray]

You know what happens when you don't enforce your border at all, when you don't pay attention to what's happening with immigration is Great Britain. That's what happens.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah. Europe, Greece.

[Pat Gray]

Greece.

[Jeff Fisher]

At this point right now, I mean, they're closing schools because they don't have enough kids for school schools because nobody is having babies. And the people who are young enough to have babies are getting the heck out of there.

[Pat Gray]

Yep.

[Jeff Fisher]

Their government has been paying for everything. And you mentioned, you know, the UK and Europe in general are. There's mostly all of those countries are paying for their lackluster immigration rules right now, Right?

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, they sure are. And they're going to hell in a handbasket. I don't even know if they have a hand basket. They're just Going to hell. And they might be walking there.

[Jeff Fisher]

There.

[Pat Gray]

So. Yes, because they. I mean, it's so bad now that they're. They're cracking down on everything, including speech, because things are just going wrong for them in Great Britain. I mean, they're going, we've got our own problems here. But Britain far surpasses us in how far down the road they are. They just arrested a comedy writer, Graham Linehan, in Britain over social media posts about transgender people. And that sparked a debate about freedom of speech and the limits in the UK well, freedom of speech is just not a thing anymore in Britain.

[Jeff Fisher]

No.

[Pat Gray]

Well, just not a thing.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, it's. It's barely. It's not real. It is still a thing, obviously, here in the U. S. But they're trying, like, by a thread. I mean, we've already. The thing is, we've already given up words that we're not supposed to say. Right. And I say we here in broadcasting, it's been forever. There were words that we couldn't say, and now there's even more words that we can't say in real life or on the air. We're not supposed to say any of them. And it's like, no, that's just a word. And I want to be able to say it, too.

[Pat Gray]

We used to have that. That theory that words were just words.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, we sure did.

[Pat Gray]

That's not a thing.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's what started this. And that's not. That's not a thing anymore at all.

[Pat Gray]

Supporters of Linehan say UK Laws are stifling legitimate comment and creating what? Harry Potter author J.K. rowling. And there's another person that's just. She doesn't care, though. No, she doesn't care. She's got enough money to now where you can try to cancel her if you want.

[Jeff Fisher]

And we broke down her list the other day, Stu and I, here on the radio show, and you know, her list of what she believed, and she's just like, there's another person that used to work with me that won't work with me anymore. So I'm gonna make a list, and we're gonna say, this is my beliefs, and if you don't like it, tough.

[Pat Gray]

Okay. Wow. And she is a really. To me, she's a surprising source for that. For that kind of attitude. Because she's very liberal.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, absolutely.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, she's super liberal liberal. She just happens to believe that women are women and men are men and you should be able to talk about it.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yes.

[Pat Gray]

And you shouldn't have to you shouldn't have to bend over backward and call somebody what they identify as if that's not what they really are. And she, you know, she calls it totalitarianism because it is.

[Jeff Fisher]

What was the line that stuck with us the other day? Words should reflect reality.

[Pat Gray]

Huh? Huh? What a concept. What a concept. But this Linehan guy was arrested because of things that he wrote on. On. I think it was on X. Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

But I think he posted about trans people. Some other social media platforms as well, but they referenced the X posts and he. Yeah, he landed back in the country. He was on. On some tour or any. When he landed back in the country, they met him at the gate, rested him.

[Pat Gray]

That's unbelievable. Over a tweet.

[Jeff Fisher]

And he has to. He can't post anything on his social media accounts.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, that's incredible.

[Jeff Fisher]

Until he goes before a judge sometime next month.

[Pat Gray]

I mean, that's really. That's unbelievable.

[Jeff Fisher]

It sure is.

[Pat Gray]

This. That's the kind of thing that you expect in the old Soviet Union. Union. That's the kind of thing you expect in communist China.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yep.

[Pat Gray]

North Korea.

[Jeff Fisher]

And then. And it does happen there, obviously.

[Pat Gray]

It does. Yeah. But it's not supposed to happen in the West.

[Jeff Fisher]

No, it is not.

[Pat Gray]

It's not supposed to happen in Great Britain. I mean, Great Britain. Say what you will about them, that is the country that we based our rights on. You know, the Constitution is based in part on. On the. I just drew a total blank. But there are 12. The Magna Carta.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah, the mag.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, the Magna Carta. From 12. What, 1213 or 1214. I mean, they had. They've had rights that others on this planet didn't have for centuries.

[Jeff Fisher]

That's because they were busy colonizing the world, those bastards. Taking over the world.

[Pat Gray]

Bastards. We hate them for that. Oh, we hate their gods. So that. And so. I shouldn't have even said anything good about them. Bastards. They deserve everything they can do. Forgot it. Thank you for reminding me about the colonization of the planet.

[Jeff Fisher]

Oh, man.

History means a lot to me. Even more so fighting for what is right. It's a core value of mine that is Why I support Prageru. Like modern day clay pots, they're safeguarding the truth. Truths that have been hidden away in our classrooms so our children and now grandchildren can be indoctrinated with progressive ideals.

[Pat Gray]

To destroy our republic.

Prageru videos reach millions of people every single day, especially young people, and they're changing minds at scale. And I've seen it. I've talked to the kids, I've talked to my kids about it. It works. I would like to invite you to be a part of this. Nobody else can do this. Nobody else is doing this. And it's working. Together, we can give America's kids the truth they deserve.

[Pat Gray]

Matt and Jeffy for Glenn today. All right, so President Trump just signed the executive order changing the name of.

[Jeff Fisher]

The Department of Defense.

[Pat Gray]

Department of Defense to the Department of War.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. I don't really care.

[Jeff Fisher]

Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Do you?

[Jeff Fisher]

Not really.

[Pat Gray]

I'm not. It's not really.

[Jeff Fisher]

Really.

[Pat Gray]

I don't really feel strongly about it one way or the other.

[Jeff Fisher]

I mean, we've got, I guess the Department of Defense.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

So, I mean, department sounds nicer. It does. It does sound nicer. Department of War makes it sound like we are actually at war. And many would say, well, we are.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

So, you know, I get that. And, you know, we're on, we're, you know, the Trump administration is definitely about being on the forefront and being ahead and taking, walking forward. So they want people to know that don't mess with us. Right. I mean, we've, we've shown that with Iran. We've shown that with, you know, a couple of fishermen out in the, out in the Caribbean.

[Pat Gray]

That's all they were, is fishermen looking for some big tuna.

[Jeff Fisher]

Guys going out, guys going out fishing. We're just blowing them out of the water. Okay.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

All right, whatever. I know Marco Rubio said they were part of the gang and they're part of, of what's his faces country. Who, who's Maduro? He's, he's a gang leader. Well, he's actually the leader of a cartel. Cartel.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah, yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

And so he does that. We don't recognize him as the leader of the country. He, we have a price on his head. And I'm surprised that maybe they are, maybe they are trying to, you know, sending people in from time to time trying to get them, but. Yeah, I don't. I don't think it's. I don't think it's wanted dead or alive. I think it's bring. Bring back the head, and you get 50 million. Okay. All right. And I don't know. What. Does it make a difference if we get rid of him? I. You know, they believe so, so. Okay, good.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

Because, I mean, we got rid of. We got rid of a couple other cartel members, too, and I feel like the cartel is still working, still going.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah. We got rid of Noriega, put him in prison, and. And that didn't seem to fix much in the. In Central America.

[Jeff Fisher]

We got rid of El Chapo and we got rid of his partner.

[Pat Gray]

Right.

[Jeff Fisher]

And I feel like that's still kind of an ongoing business.

[Pat Gray]

Yeah.

[Jeff Fisher]

So maybe the Department of War will get us out of that.

[Pat Gray]

Pretty deeply rooted, so. Yeah, we'll see. We'll see if the Department of War.

[Jeff Fisher]

Yeah.

[Pat Gray]

Helps.

[Jeff Fisher]

I hope so.

[Pat Gray]

We'll see.

[Jeff Fisher]

I hope so.

[Pat Gray]

All right. Have a great weekend. Good. Glenn will be back on Monday. See you then.
