Key Discussion Points & Insights

---

1. Trump's Executive Orders: Banning Birth Tourism & Curbing Birthright Citizenship

• [02:31–06:17]
  • President Trump signed two major executive orders: one bans “birth tourism”—foreigners coming to the U.S. to give birth and obtain citizenship for their children; another narrows eligibility for birthright citizenship (e.g. bars "alien enemies," members of terrorist organizations, certain foreign government proxies).
  • Stephen Miller's Statement (White House Advisor):
    • The 14th Amendment was "meant solely for children of slaves" and has been "abused" (05:00).
    • “Birth tourism is, as of the signing of this order, hereby banned.”
    • “It ends what has been one of the gravest and most egregious abuses of the American system. And it keeps American citizenship sacred.” (05:40)
  • Hosts' Remark:
    • Applaud the move: “Amen to the birthright citizenship. We’ve even gone past the pretending of being on vacation. The tourism is just—come here, have a baby, get the citizenship, move on.” (06:17)

---

2. Legal Justifications & Implementation

• [09:08–10:21]
  • Miller references Section 215A of the Immigration and Nationality Act as the legal underpinning: “Gives [the President] this authority…one of the strongest laws in the entire federal code.” (09:23)

---

3. Birth Tourism's Realities & Global Dynamics

• [06:47–12:11]
  • Hosts: Discuss anecdotes of Chinese birth tourism through American territories/islands, and benefits like welfare, eventual voting rights, and “access to the country” (06:54).
  • Reference to Barack Obama supposedly making it "easier" via certain Pacific islands—debated with tongue-in-cheek skepticism (“I never remember the name of the island, but...The Chinese fly there, have their babies, and go back to China, and they're citizens, right?”) (10:35).

4. Cultural & Demographic Concerns: Immigration and Islam

• [12:00–13:42]:
  • Shift to reports in major cities (McKinney, TX; Hamtramck, MI; Dearborn, MI; etc.) about demographic and cultural change, particularly around Muslim immigration and the establishment of new mosques.

    • Eddie Issa: "I'm a Sharia law survivor from Iran, and I'm here to tell you this is a dangerous ideology you're allowing in our country...You're going to regret not listening to people like us who lived under Sharia law." (14:30–15:32)
  • Hosts: Express alarm at local government ignoring majority opinion of residents in allowing mosque construction. “Seven to nothing. They’re doing it. It’s incredible.” (16:03)

---

5. Political Fears: Muslim Candidates & Shifts in Government

• [19:10–21:48]:
  • Anxiety about the possible election of Abdul Rahman Al Said as the first Muslim U.S. Senator from Michigan. Hosts claim he is not actually a physician, and call him a “socialist...parading around as a doctor." (19:53)

  • New Mexico offers pathway to becoming a lawyer without the bar exam, but it’s complicated (32:12)

---

7. Congressional Scandal—Ethics & Resignation

• [35:50–50:42]:
  • GOP Congressman Chuck Edwards (NC) accused of persistent inappropriate conduct toward female staffers—lavish gifts, personal notes, trips, but “not technically sexual harassment.” He withdraws from reelection (36:10–44:00).

[B]

It's Pat Jeffy for Glenn. President Trump yesterday issued two executive orders. These were intended to end birth tourism to the United States and to narrow down birthright citizenship as well.

[A]

So good.

[B]

Really important. Really important. And the Supreme Court was so bad, had such a ridiculous ruling on the birthright citizenship situation that, you know, something's got to be done.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

And so the President took action yesterday. Stephen Miller talked about it and Stephen Miller is always great expressing things.

[A]

Well, yes, I mean, Trump had said that, you know, I think we're the only country, period, that does birthright citizenship. I thought we were going to win the Supreme Court. Unfortunately, bad decision, unfair decision. Our country suffers because of it and we're ending it in a different way. Okay, good. I mean, good. And Stephen Miller lays it out point by point. He does a pretty good job speaking for the President.

[B]

And here it is.

[D]

Today, the President signed these two executive orders here relating to birthright citizenship and birth tourism.

[A]

Okay.

[D]

As the president mentioned, the 14th amendment was passed exclusively in the aftermath of the Civil War. So to ensure that the children of slaves would be citizens, it had no other meaning and purpose outside of that. And that's been clear, obviously, since the day that it was passed. You can go back, you can read the congressional debates. This is not something that's even seriously contested by anybody. The President is using his authority as commander in chief to sign first an executive order, using the new ruling the Supreme Court issued to expand the definitions of people who are ineligible for birthright citizenship. That includes, for example, alien enemies of the United States, members of foreign terrorist organizations, and large categories of people who lobby and act on behalf of foreign governments. And so with taking this action, it ensures that large numbers of people who wrongly would be getting birthright citizenship will no longer be eligible for those goods. The second action that he's taking, which is especially historic, is for the first time ever in American history, to ban birth tourism. So I want you to really let that sink in. This has been something that people have talked about not only for years, but for decades. The idea that people come here pretending to be a tourist, pretending to be a visitor, saying they want to go to Disneyland, they want to go visit a monument or go to a national park, but the real reason they're here is to have a child, to make that child an automatic citizen leave our country and then have a US Citizen child. It gives them access under this broken system to welfare benefits, ultimately to the voting booth and all the other rights and privileges that belong solely to Americans. So that practice of birth tourism is, as of the signing of this order, hereby banned. And what that means is that no one in the world is any more allowed to obtain a visa for this fraudulent purpose. It is probably. And President Trump has done many historic things on immigration, too many to list now. Sealed the southern border shut, record deportations, record integrity, stopping foreign terrorist entry, record reduction in drug seizures, dismantling criminal cartels, dismantling the gangs. Everything he's done that has been so unprecedented, I would put this in the top three in terms of importance, because it ends what has been one of the gravest and most egregious abuses of the American system. And it keeps American citizenship sacred.

[A]

Amen. I mean, he knew he was going to be speaking at the Oval too, because he's wearing a darn nice suit today. Not one of those little off the rack suits, but amen to the birthright citizenship. And we've even gone past the pretending of being on vacation. I mean, that they. We've. The tourism is just come here, have A baby. Get the citizenship. Move on.

[B]

Sometimes they don't even pretend like they're going to Disneyland or Disney World, any of that. They're just here.

[A]

Correct.

[B]

Give birth.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

And it's been allowed up until now.

[A]

And then they get their citizenship papers and they go back to their country.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

And then when they're ready to. When the kid has all the rights of an American citizen living in another country. Mostly China, but another country. And that's. That's a problem. But thankfully, it's a big problem. That's a problem.

[B]

It's a really big problem. And so hopefully this will curb that. What we need to do is to codify that into law. We won't.

[A]

Well, but I'm sure. Oh, the House and Senator on it,

[B]

because as soon as there's a Democrat in office, they'll overturn that, you know, and they'll overturn all the work that President Trump has done on immigration if it's not codified in law. Now, by the end of the year, we're supposed to have had the entire wall built. That's how far that's progressed, is that we're supposed to have all like, 2100 miles of the border secured by a wall, which is incredible.

[A]

Amazing.

[B]

And they've also put a buoy. A buoy down a really huge section of the Real Grand.

[A]

It's a long section of the Rio Grand.

[B]

And so you can see they're like barrels. They look like orange construction barrels, and they're placed in the river and similar to that.

[A]

I mean, I think they're even bigger than that, but it's. It's a.

[B]

It's a long way over the top of. Although I think you could just swim under them because they don't apparently go down any further.

[A]

Yeah. I don't know.

[B]

So all you have to do is. So what? They're. I think they're designed to stop the boats that come across.

[A]

Yeah. The cartels. I mean, the coyotes all had, you know, flotation devices that they were moving people back and forth across the river. That definitely stops that.

[B]

It should limit that.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Somewhat.

[A]

To be fair. I don't know what it's doing to the wildlife along the river.

[B]

I'm a little.

[A]

A little concerned.

[B]

Are you?

[A]

I'm a little.

[B]

Because I know you're always concerned about wildlife.

[A]

Yeah, that's me.

[B]

Yeah. No, that's. That's one of your big issues is how does this affect wildlife?

[A]

Wildlife. That's me.

[B]

Me, too. Me, too. No word on that.

[A]

We have not been informed on that?

[B]

No. Couldn't really care less. But I'm glad you do. I'm glad you do. That's really important. But Stephen Miller had even more to say on this subject.

[D]

For those of you who want to do your research on this. Section 215 of the Immigration and Nationality act gives The President this authority. 215A of the immigration and Nationality act, very rarely used, probably one of the strongest laws in the entire federal code, gives him this power. And that's not the only. But it's the main statutory authority that's being used in this order. So birth tourism is by definition, a fraud on the American system, on the American taxpayer, on the American visa. If you're coming here, and again, your stated purpose is that you're a tourist, then by definition, you are here to come for a few weeks, look what we have, engage in commerce, and leave. So if you're telling a consular officer you're here as a tourist, but your true purpose and intent is to go to a baby mill, give birth, and try to mint an American citizen while you're here, then you're committing a fraud against the American government. And by definition, that visa can and should and will be now denied.

[B]

Good.

[A]

I mean. Okay.

[B]

Good.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

It's kind of hard to believe that this has gone on unimpeded for so long.

[A]

It's been a long time.

[B]

Yeah. Nobody has taken care of this. It's just not a problem.

[A]

No, it's not a problem. In fact, I remember Barack Obama made it easier, right? He made. He set up that one island. I camera. I never can remember the name of the island, but that's where a lot of the.

[B]

Is it American Samoa.

[A]

And I don't remember, but the. The. The. The Chinese fly there, have their babies, and go back to China and they're citizens, right?

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[A]

Oh, okay.

[B]

That's quite a process.

[A]

That's. That is a darn process. Worth a lot of money. Yeah, worth. Somebody's making a lot of money. It's not me.

[B]

It's not you.

[A]

It's not me.

[B]

Okay. Sorry to hear that.

[A]

Not making a dime off of that. That's why we need to shut it down.

[B]

Yeah. And it just opens up a whole world to the Chinese.

[A]

Sure does.

[B]

And, you know, their spying activities and whatever else they're perpetrating in America.

[A]

I mean, we're already getting reports that people are calling this, what, equal to the red scare, right?

[B]

Yeah, yeah. No, the telegraph in London called it this. Trump is resurrecting the Red scare.

[A]

That's awesome.

[B]

He's resurrecting the Red Scare because there is a Red scare right now. There's. There's a lot of communists to be afraid of.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Right now. We're only. It's only a problem for us because it's a problem.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And I mean, when you've got an Islamist as mayor of New York, that's. That's a combination of Islamist and a communist, and. And it's Islamianist. And when you've got that going on in New York, when you've got what's going on in Seattle, going on. Minneapolis, and I mean, all over the country. Dearborn, Michigan.

[A]

It's just skinny. Texas. Plano, Texas. Austin, Texas. Just saying. Houston, Texas.

[B]

Yeah. Right.

[A]

There's a number of cities that are. Have an issue.

[B]

Ham. Ham. What is it? Hamtramck. Hamtramck, Michigan. Patterson, New Jersey. I mean, it goes on and on and on with the issues that are happening.

[A]

There's a few. That's happening with the Muslim community.

[B]

Since you, since you brought up McKinney,

[A]

Texas, this is why, while you're looking for the McKinney, Texas, I know what you're gonna play. And it's. The whole thing is absolutely agonizing. But when. When you have the telegraph talking about the Red Scare. That's why I'm for that. We should have zero immigration. Net zero. No one gets in. Then we're not. Then we're not racist against anyone. We're just. No, we're. No, we're not letting anyone in. We're. We're not racist against your country.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We're not fat. We're not breaking down your people, all of everybody. Nobody gets in.

[B]

I don't care if you're from Norway. You're not.

[A]

I don't care. You're not getting in. We're done. Net zero. You're not getting in, period.

[B]

It's not going to happen. But maybe it should. Maybe it should. Do we have the McKinney hearing? Do we have that somewhere that we.

[A]

I hope so.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Check this out.

[E]

Hello, my name is Eddie.

[B]

Pause it for just a sec. This is a Christian from Iran. Iran. And he is warning Americans about what's going on in this community. McKinney is a suburb of Dallas. Part of it's in the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. And this is going on just a few miles from where we are right now.

[A]

And they want to put in a whole new mosque. They're putting in a whole new Muslim area.

[B]

So this is a public hearing on that. And Listen to this.

[E]

Hello. My name is Eddie Issa.

[A]

Hello.

[E]

I'm a Sharia law survivor from Iran, and I'm here to tell you this is a dangerous ideology you're allowing in their country. Every country that is Islamic now, it used to be a Christian country, and we were soft Christians, and we allowed these people to come in, bring their Sharia law into their countries, and slowly kill us off left and right. Let me make it very clear to you. Christianity is a personal relationship with God where it says, render on to Caesar's. What is Caesar's? Render unto God. What is God? Islam is Sharia law, deen wad dawah religion and states which is not even compatible with the American thing. And when they. These people will use taqiyah to lie to you, to manipulate you, because whenever Islam is little, they will lie to you and tell you they come in peace. This is a bad idea, and you're gonna regret not listening to people like us who lived under Sharia law.

[A]

Yeah, listen to that, bro.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

Now, they had two big rooms full of McKinney residents there for this meeting.

[B]

Virtually all of them were against this area being.

[A]

You heard?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Which is why the city council voted 70 to allow it.

[B]

After five hours of people telling them, don't do this. We don't want this in our community. You can't do this.

[A]

They go against the people.

[B]

Seven to nothing. They're doing it. It's incredible.

[A]

It is absolutely incredible.

[B]

Wow.

[A]

I. I honestly, I couldn't believe it when we found that out this morning. Yeah, I was. Yeah, it's amazing to me.

[B]

Triple eight, seven, two, seven, Beck. More coming up. One minute.

[C]

When it comes to supplements, two things matter most. One, that it works, and two, you can trust it. Rather than just tell you about relief factor, I want to let my audience do it. We hear from people every single day whose lives have changed, and I'd hear a few of their stories. Jim wrote in. He said he ran out of relief factor twice. Both times, his ache and stiffness and pain came back. Once he restarted, he said, I felt better again. As Jim puts it, you know, something's working when you run out of it. Jim, I can tell you that's exactly. I mean, I didn't run out of it. I just thought, you know, my wife made me take it, and I'm like, I'm not. It's not going to work. And then I started feeling better, and I was like, well, I did my three weeks. I'm feeling better, but it's just me. I just I'm in a good spot. I stopped taking it and it all came rushing back. That's how I appreciate what Relief Factor does. And it could change your life. They make it easy to find out if you'll be the next person telling us Relief Factor helped you tackle your daily aches and pain. Three weeks for just 1776. Call 1-800-For relief. Get the three week quick start. 1776 1-800-For relief. Relieffactor.com we hope you soon will be sharing your story with us.

[B]

So, yeah, we got a couple of issues to deal with in this country and we just need to be aware of them so that, you know, you can show up at a city council meeting like the residents of McKinney, Texas did, so that they could be ignored by their city council.

[A]

Right.

[B]

But at least they showed up and made their feelings known. At least they, they tried. They gave it a shot.

[A]

Yes. Yeah. I mean, I would be, I would try to get rid of those council members.

[B]

That's what needs to happen right now. Yeah. When you've ignored what the people want you to do, what they put you to in office to do, and you just ignored it, then they need to go. I don't know what the process is for impeachment in McKinney City Council, but they need to follow it. Whatever it is, whatever it is, do it now. Because that's unbelievable.

[A]

Each and every one of them.

[B]

Goodbye. Bye bye now.

[A]

I mean, not even a, not even a four to three.

[B]

No.

[A]

I mean, no.

[B]

Unanimous. Just spitting in your face.

[A]

We're doing it.

[B]

That's all. We're spitting in your face. We don't give a rat's anus what you think. We're just doing this. Wow.

[A]

I would like to see some, some bank receipts.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Members.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I'm not saying they did anything wrong. I'm not saying that they, you know, they took any money properly.

[B]

All right.

[A]

But I'd like to see the bank account.

[B]

Yeah, me too. Me too. But this is the kind of thing that is happening all over the country right now.

[A]

Over the country. They are telling us what they want to do, speaking of the Muslims and what they're going to do. And they're doing it and we are allowing it. The soft Christians, as the man from Iran called us.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And they are allowing it, and that's what's happening.

[B]

And we've got a guy in Michigan who could become America's first Muslim US Senator parading around as a doctor, as a physician. This Abdul Rahman Al Said, which he is not by the way, he is not a licensed doctor. He never completed a medical residency.

[A]

No, he did not.

[B]

He never passed board exams or held a state medical license to practice independently. He's never done that. He's done administrative stuff, but he is not a physician. He's not a practicing doctor. And that's been a big part of his campaign up there in, in Michigan. And it's interesting that he's kind of misled the people like this. And he won the Democrat primary doing it, so congratulations on that. But now he goes up against Mike Rogers, the sitting U. S. Senator.

[A]

No, he's not sitting because the guy is retiring. So he's Rogers. Rogers was.

[B]

Oh, right, right.

[A]

Rogers was a congressman.

[B]

He was in Michigan and now he's running for Senate.

[A]

Correct.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Because the, the senator, what's his name? Peters, I think is Gary.

[B]

Is it Gary Peters?

[A]

Is, is done. So that, what, that's why the seat is open?

[B]

Yeah, but that can't happen. It just can't happen. And it might now. I might. If you look at the polls that have been conducted, it's a little chilling.

[A]

Who believes in polls? Stop it. He's not going to. That's not good. Michigan is not going to elect that. They're not going to, I hope Michigan, State of Michigan, my home state.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

State I was born in, is not going to. Not going to produce a Muslim senator. It's not going to happen.

[B]

Not only Muslim, he's also a socialist, which he claims he's not. But he is. But he is. So that's just not something we need in the US Senate.

[A]

Really?

[B]

Yeah, really. Really.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

So. Wow. I don't know. It's. It's up to us to really take an active role right now in our government.

[C]

Though the headlines might change, the threats facing Israel remain. While much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families continue living with the reality of terrorism and uncertainty and recovery. Communities remain on alert. Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives, knowing the next siren could come without warning. As Christians, we're called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the international fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day, providing life saving aid, food for struggling families, emergency assistance, bomb shelters and critical support for those impacted by war. Even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. Join the international fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying for the people of Israel for protection and strength and for lasting peace. Together we can remind God's people that they are not alone. Stand with Israel in prayer today. Visit prayifcj.org, that's prayifcj.org torch members are

[B]

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn. Triple eight seven two seven, Beck. Let's chew the fat just a little bit. These are some stories that may not make your eyes bleed, hopefully.

[A]

I'm not promising that.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

But I will say so.

[B]

They may make our eyes.

[A]

It's possible. It's possible. I hope not, though. Okay, I've got a trick question. Well, it's not really a trick question. Just I want you to answer. What does this list represent? Hyundai Elantra 21,730 2. Honda Accord 17,790 7. Hyundai Sonata 17,680 7. Chevrolet Silverado 16,760 4. Honda Civic 12,720 5. Kia Optima 11,520 1. Ford F150s 10,100 2. Toyota Camrys 9,830 3. Honda CRV 9,800 9. Nissan Altimas 8,440 5. What does that list represent?

[B]

Vehicles still in operation after 10 years. I don't know.

[A]

What the most stolen vehicles in the US Last year. Wow.

[B]

Okay, wow. What was the Most?

[A]

The number one. Hyundai Elantra 21. 732. And these are reported, right? I mean, if. Guess. I guess everyone. If you have your star be rare. If you had your car stolen and you didn't report it. Right. So I mean, that's. Yeah. Hyundai Elantra, Honda Accord. Hyundai Sonata. Top three. Interesting. Yeah, but that's a number of cars stolen and those that may be down. The one thing I didn't say on this list was, you know, if it was down from year to year because I mean, Trump has put the hammer down on a lot of this stuff with, with crime. So hoping that holds true. And as you know, Pat, influenza ranks as the 11th leading cause of death in the US and it results in over 300,000 deaths worldwide annually. Flu season runs from October to May in the US and the Food and Drug Administration has now approved the first MRNA flu vaccine for adults age 50 to 64. They're expanding the Nobel Prize winning technology first used to combat COVID 19. And unlike traditional vaccines, which take several months to develop, MRA, vaccines can be produced in about six weeks and modified to match emergent flu strains. That's good. It's developed by Moderna MFlu Siva M Flu. Siva uses the MRNA plug and play model in which genetic sequences for any virus or pathogen can be swapped into the vaccine. So traditional vaccines require the growing virus, which actually limits the possibility of quick adaptation. The new vaccine coming this fall, 27% more effective than a standard flu shot.

[B]

Yeah, so we'll see about that, won't we?

[A]

Clinical trial.

[B]

We heard a lot of those claims with COVID 19 and their MRNA shot.

[A]

Now, there were some reported side effects. There were an injection site, pain, fatigue, and headaches from some of the trial participants. So we'll see.

[B]

No sudden death syndrome like the.

[A]

Not as of yet.

[B]

Okay, good.

[A]

Not as of yet. I don't know that we've studied it that long. Okay, but as right now. No. No sudden death. But you have that going for us. Yeah.

[B]

This flu season, very exciting.

[A]

Can't wait. The U.S. state Department making us proud. There was a presentation being given at the AIDS 2026 conference in Rio de Janeiro. Now, I thought we were done giving money to all these places with the. The PEPFAR stuff, but apparently not. They showed a map of Africa and the countries that we're helping at this conference, and every country was in the wrong place on the continent. It was. It's unbelievable. The errant map display, half during the halfway during the presentation was they were showing the new health department agreements and a lot of the attendees were like, hey, those countries are not in the right place on the continent. Yeah, you know what? The presentation contained an artificial intelligence watermark that signals it was made with OpenAI tools. And the company said, we're investigating the report. The State Department said, yeah, it's our fault. Full responsibility. The confusion was produced by a team member. We hastily changed some slide deck before the event, and we never went back to look at it. The map showed Nigeria, where the US has several hundred troops deployed as landlocked in the Sahara. Mozambique, which is in southeastern Africa, was relocated in the Horn of Africa, while Ivory coast and West Africa replaced in other side of the continent. So whoever proved it. Yeah, you were. You were wrong. Now, in a statement, they said they obviously take full responsibility. But again, the State Department said the discussions at the conference were substantive and constructive, despite the map. Despite the map being wrong. But last year, Trump said that we were going to stop giving money to this pepfarv. Right. And the. The President's emergency plan for AIDS relief pepfar. And so I guess we are still providing some funding going on because there was quite a bit of money on that map still going to those countries. So. Okay, all right. I don't want to phase any of that out. I want to keep. Keep that going. We need to. We need to help those countries provide life saving drugs to help them with their AIDS problem.

[B]

Well, or whatever situation they've got going on. Because, like, the USAID aid was so important because it was funding things like Americans have been funding the following 5.5

[A]

million to LGBTQ advocacy in Uganda.

[B]

You don't want to stop that.

[A]

800,000 for transgender people, sex workers and

[B]

their clients in Nepal. In Nepal.

[A]

3.6 LGBTQ activism, free training in pastry cooking.

[B]

Pastry psychosocial counseling, social counsel. A cyber cafe. Gotta have that for male prostitutes. Focus groups for male prostitutes.

[F]

And 1.1.

[B]

What would you do if you didn't have that gender transformation in Diverse social

[A]

and behavior change report, which advocates, again quote, gender blindness.

[B]

Okay, so you can't do without any of that kind of stuff.

[G]

All right.

[B]

You can't do without it, obviously not with USAID or pepfar or PEPFAR money.

[A]

You have to have that keep. Continue to go. And they are. If you are a loved one is going to mail something to the Pacific island country of Nauru, spelled N A U R. Uh, they have changed their name, uh, to the Republic of Nowo, uh, spelled N A O E R. Oh. The country's international code is going to change as well for your postal service, NRU to nro. And its people will now be known as Dinar Ero instead of Nauruan. The move would return the remote South Pacific island to its traditional name. According to their Facebook account, the country became internationally known as Nauru only because its local name was difficult for foreigners to pronounce. Yeah, they couldn't say now hero. It's really weird. Anyway, the kind of. It's. It's the third smallest country on the planet behind Tuvalu and Vatican city. There's like 12, 000 residents there. It's out there in the middle of the Pacific. And as I looked, we had. I. I don't know if we have the picture of the map, but the map's still spelling it wrong. The map has the old spelling of it and I like it. I don't like it. This. Damn it. Their name is now or Hero, not Nauru. Okay, stop calling them Nauruan.

[B]

And there they are.

[A]

Oh, yeah, there you go.

[B]

Out there in the middle of nowhere.

[A]

It is awesome. But that's the wrong spelling. That is not the right spelling for now. They're now ero now.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

They're now erosion.

[G]

Mm.

[A]

As of this point.

[B]

All right.

[A]

Yeah. Okay.

[B]

So it's good to know. Good to know.

[A]

This headline is a tad misleading too. It's correct, but it makes you think something else. New Mexico will no longer require lawyers to pass the bar exam. And I love the.

[D]

The.

[A]

The original picture on the post was the New Mexico will no longer require lawyers to pass the bar exam with Kim Kardashian there on the. On the post with the New Mexico of seal. And see now, Kardashian, she took the California bar and failed. And since she. She had to take what's called the baby bar exam because if you don't go to traditional law school, you have to take this baby bar exam in California. And she failed that three times before she passed it the fourth time. So she's, you know, she's. I guess you can go to New Mexico now and just become a lawyer, but it's not that easy. It is. There is a. It's an alternative lawyer licensing pathway. You still have to be complete, like 675 hours of supervised legal work within one year. You have to. You're relying on written examination of applicants. After reviewing the completed portfolio, the New Mexico Board of Bar Examiners is going to determine whether the applicant has met the standards you still have to do. You still have to pass the multi state Professional responsibility Examination, the mpre, before being licensed. But what they claim is the program aims to improve attorney readiness while helping address lawyer shortages in underserved communities. So I don't know, it seems like you just may as well just take the bar. I don't quite. I mean, that's. That's a lot of that. That seems like a lot of work. You might as well just take the bar exam and then you're a lawyer and you could just go to work by way. Whatever. Good luck. Yeah, good luck out there. That is the Chewing the Fat Fat five.

[A]

Absolutely.

[B]

You can do that as well. It is Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today. 888 727. Beck. Glenn.

[A]

Becky, let me ask you a question,

[C]

and I want you to really think about it. When a decision gets Made about your health care, who's in the room. Because it's not just you and your doctor. It's your insurance company. They have files on you, pages of it. And here's the part it should bother you. It's not always accurate. Somebody from this audience found this out. He called Chapter the only Medicare advisor that I trust because his cost kept climbing and nobody would tell him why. His Chapter advisor dug in and found the record that they were using on him and it was flat out wrong. So she corrected it and went back to work finding him better options. Nobody else is going to do that. That's the difference. That's Chapter. Their advisors aren't paid to push one plan over another. They're on your side of the table. They compare every Medicare plan nationwide. They have found people an average of eleven hundred dollars a year in health care savings. And the call is completely free. It'll take you about 20 minutes. Talk to chapter today. Dial £250. Say the keyword chapter. That's £250. Keyword chapter. £250, chapter.

[B]

All right. There's another congressperson.

[A]

We're losing another.

[B]

A Republican.

[A]

A Republican congressman from North Carolina.

[B]

Oh, boy.

[A]

Is dropping his bid for reelection. Reelection. After the House Ethics Committee recommended he be censured over sexual harassment allegations.

[B]

Oh, wow.

[A]

So he said, what do you do? Well, after much prayer and reflection, he's decided to withdraw from reelection.

[B]

Okay, okay. So. So he prayed and reflected.

[A]

Reflected, that's correct.

[B]

And it was a lot of that. There was much of that.

[A]

There was.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

So apparently he engaged, according to the House Ethics Censure Board or whatever, the Ethics Committee, he engaged in persistent, unprofessional and inappropriate conduct towards two young female staffers. So like there's that.

[B]

Okay, like what do you do? Well, what kind of inappropriate behavior?

[A]

There was, there was, there was behavior that would lead a reasonable observer to interpret. Interpret it as sexual harassment, but it wasn't quite sexual harassment down to the letter of the law. He provided the young woman with lavish and recurrent gifts, made comments regarding their appearance and dress, invited them to intimate dinners and vacations, sending notes regarding their. Regarding his affection, and inviting them to other activities as a way to spend time together. That bastard. But you look hot. Want to go out to dinner?

[B]

Well, yeah. You can't do that.

[A]

I left right little post it notes. You look so hot.

[B]

And we don't know that that's what it was. Right.

[G]

Well,

[B]

that's the left about their appearance or whatever.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Could have just said you look Nice.

[A]

Yes. He could have.

[B]

He could have might have said that. Maybe the word hot wasn't even in there. Maybe it was just. Hey, you look really nice.

[A]

Oh, you look beautiful today, man. Want to go out to dinner later? Are those. Are those new nylons you're wearing?

[B]

No.

[A]

That's great.

[B]

It's not gonna work.

[A]

That's not gonna know.

[B]

It's not gonna work. No, no.

[A]

You know, I was thinking you need maybe some. You should go see my plastic surgeon.

[B]

Yeah, that's not gonna work either. No, no, no.

[A]

Did you just get that dress? Because I need to buy you another one.

[F]

Come here.

[A]

Let me. Let me give you somebody I don't see, my friend. No.

[B]

No.

[A]

Want to go on vacation? You ever go on vacation with them?

[B]

Yeah. Appropriate. Wow.

[A]

I'm just sitting here thinking we're. We're getting ready to go on vacation.

[B]

Hey, I'm going to France. You want to come?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

The guy's married, right? Or is he? Is he married?

[A]

Ah, that's a good question, because you're

[B]

going on vacation with your staff members.

[A]

Question. I don't know that.

[B]

What about your wife? Maybe the wife was invited, too. Who knows, right?

[A]

Representative Chuck Edwards, North Carolina. I don't know. He's 65 now.

[B]

Oh, wow.

[A]

It doesn't say here. Maybe. Maybe the wife already left him. He couldn't take him. He's always. He's always hitting up younger chicks. Yeah. It doesn't say in the story if. If he had. If he had much prayer and reflection with the wife.

[B]

Yeah. He's married.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

Apparently to Teresa Wilson Edwards.

[A]

Oh, for now.

[B]

For now.

[A]

Yeah, for now.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

All I did was offer to take him out to dinner when he. Leave me alone.

[B]

He showered young female staffers with gifts, and apparently, you know, I guess that's. You can't do that. Yeah. You can't do that.

[A]

Yes. I just give you a nice gift, tell you how hot you look, Want to take you to dinner?

[B]

No.

[A]

I'm in Washington, D.C. my wife is back in North Carolina. I need some companionship. Is that wrong?

[B]

It's wrong. It is.

[A]

So Congress thought that, too.

[B]

He gave them gifts of jewelry, guns, Vegas trips, New York City, helicopter rides.

[A]

Oh, man.

[B]

And more.

[A]

If he needs a date, I'm here.

[B]

And you don't mind a little inappropriateness?

[A]

I do not. We're fine. So.

[B]

Yeah, he'd be perfectly.

[A]

You know what? You want to bring the wife along? Come on.

[B]

More coming up.

[A]

Pass it on. Crank the game. Glam Beck is on. Glam Back is on. The Fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck program.

[B]

Got an Update on Mitch McConnell. We'll get into that in just a second. Is he on his way back to the Senate? Will he miss fewer votes now? Tell you coming up in one minute.

[C]

I think about providence often these days. The idea that we're stewards of our families, our communities, our own safety. The founders understood this. It's woven into the fabric of who we are as Americans. And I want to share something with you. It's called Burna. B Y R N A. And it's changed how I think about personal protection. Here's the thing. Most people assume self defense is complicated. You need training, licensing, you know, government approval. But Burna is legal in all 50 states. No permit, no background check. Because your right to protect your family shouldn't require anyone's permission. The range on this is 60ft. That's not pepper spray distance. That's real distance. That gives you time to think, to move, to get your family safe. It's simple enough that anyone can use it. Anyone. And it's built in Fort Wayne, Indiana, right here in America in American hands, American craftsmanship. And that matters to me and I think it matters to you. I'm not here to scare you. I'm here to tell you being prepared isn't paranoia, it's love. It's what we do for the people that you do anything for. So go to Byrna by r n a dot com Glenn.

[B]

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn Triple eight seven two seven. Becky. We were talking about this congressman who's just been, I guess he's just dropped out of the race to be re elected.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Congressman in North Carolina because of inappropriate activity among a couple of female staffers. We. So we were kind of looking into this during the break, trying to find out what it was that he did that was inappropriate. Because, I mean, because he said he didn't do anything wrong.

[A]

Right.

[B]

He said he wasn't guilty of any wrongdoing.

[A]

And they said, and they, the, the House ethics committee said that, you know,

[B]

it was, it wasn't actually sexual harassment.

[A]

Right down to the letter.

[B]

Right.

[A]

He didn't violate the letter of federal

[B]

sexual harassment laws, but he violated the spirit of it. Is that what we're saying? Basically, here's one of the notes that he wrote to one of the women. Dear. And then it eliminates her name. Dear staffer, you are the most amazing woman. I could not be more proud to have witnessed your career climb. Nor could I be more proud that you've been by my side and dedicated so much of yourself to contributing to my own. So far, there's not. Wow. I mean, are you outraged? This is like your blood's boiling already.

[A]

It's a grooming letter. That's what it is. He's grooming her.

[B]

I could speak endlessly on how much I appreciate you giving of your knowledge, energy, and numerous talents to serve alongside me. Oh, your kindness, encouragement, and lightheartedness have written a complex chapter in my heart that I will never forget.

[A]

No one wants a letter like that.

[B]

No, you don't.

[A]

You don't. No, you don't want to. You want to have a nice letter at work written about you.

[B]

You don't want that from their boss.

[A]

No, you don't. You don't, buddy. You don't.

[B]

No. No. I'd sue. If there was a letter like that written to me, I would sue that.

[A]

I mean, come on. I mean, it is. I don't know.

[B]

Yeah, it's. I mean, there might have been others, and that was just one example. But he never engaged in sexual activity.

[A]

No. I mean, he may have been trying to work up to that.

[B]

He never explicitly propositioned any of his staffers. That's not even alleged.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So that's interesting.

[A]

And the vacations and the dinners, I mean, that's. It seems like they were on trips, right? It wasn't. It wasn't necessarily a vacation.

[B]

Let's see. According to the report, Edwards gave both women lavish gifts, including jewelry totaling over a thousand dollars, designer purses, guns, shoes, flowers, a laptop, and a cell phone.

[A]

The wife has got to be a little pissed, right?

[B]

I think so. Yeah, I would think. KitchenAid mixer. Robotic vacuum cleaner.

[A]

Okay. Come on.

[B]

Vacations, tickets to performances, and one on one dinners. Hey, is that too much?

[A]

You're doing such a great job. Here's a Roomba. Oh, man, that's. Now. Now you're talking.

[B]

If Tyler asked you to dinner

[A]

one on one, I better get a mixer. I better get a food mixer.

[B]

As long as the night ends in a KitchenAid mixer, I'm okay with it. Yeah, I'm okay. Or a robotic vacuum.

[A]

I got a Roomba in the trunk for you when we leave.

[B]

Sounds good. Sounds good. What do I have to do for that?

[A]

Yes, I'll have another glass of wine with you. Okay. Come on.

[B]

Another time. He brought a staffer on a work trip to New York City, but extended the trip for his birthday. You bastard. And sought to surprise her with a helicopter ride, dinner, and a Broadway show.

[A]

Be married. I'm. Seriously.

[B]

I know. It's Weird. That part is weird. Neither of our wives would appreciate if we're taking helicopter rides in Broadway shows.

[A]

Yeah, I'm in New York and I'm gonna see a Broadway play, go out to dinner, and. And I'm with my staffer. She looked good today when we were in the office, so I figured I'd bring her along.

[B]

Yeah. He also visited a staffer's home to do yard work. What? You monster.

[A]

Did he take his shirt off while he was mowing?

[B]

Doesn't say he.

[A]

Did he bring his own lawnmower or does he just show up? Hey.

[B]

Hey.

[A]

You look so hot today. You gotta mow your lawn. Okay. Come on.

[B]

But he did skip votes in the house to decorate her Christmas tree. This is weird.

[A]

That.

[B]

It is. I'll say it's weird.

[A]

It is. It is. I mean, I don't even decorate my own Christmas tree, so.

[B]

Right, you're not doing it.

[A]

But depending on how hot she is, I mean, maybe you are. Can I come over and decorate your tree? I've got a gun in my pocket for you.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

Come on.

[A]

That's. It's weird, right? It's just weird.

[B]

It is weird. Yeah, it is weird. But I guess. Let's see. So he hired a singer in spring of 2025 for a surprise performance of a staffer's favorite Ed Sheeran songs. That's just stupid, okay? That's just wrong. You guys should not be in Congress. You're right. You're right.

[A]

He's doing the work of the people. He's doing the work of the people of North Carolina.

[B]

Right? Yeah. If I'm his wife, I'm probably not very happy with it.

[A]

Yeah, probably not very happy.

[B]

I mean, but it's not like he did anything criminal here, you know?

[A]

Right.

[B]

I guess you don't have to in order to be drummed out of Congress.

[A]

No, but. Well, that's. I mean, he didn't really want to leave, but after much prayer and reflection, he's decided to try to withdraw from the re election campaign. Yeah, I don't know what he does. I don't know what he does for a living or where he got his

[B]

money, but he must have a serious

[A]

amount of money, do something, right?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I mean, y. He. Listen, I said it before, Chuck. If you want to stop by and mow my lawn and bring me. Bring me a Roomba. You could do that anytime you want. Chuck, I'm here for you.

[B]

Yeah, I'm not sure he's be moved enough by you to. To do that.

[A]

I Think you look great today, Chuck. Okay. Seriously, I'm right. Right back at you, baby. That's just so weird.

[B]

It is weird.

[A]

Yeah, go ahead.

[B]

It is weird.

[A]

I mean, it's a Republican congressman, so I hate to lose the seat.

[B]

I know. Again. Another one?

[A]

Yes.

[B]

It's already so close in the House. Well, in. In the House and Senate both, actually. But, I mean. But we had a guy. We had a Democrat who's sleeping with a Chinese spy for two years.

[A]

It took so much.

[B]

The guy's still in office or what?

[A]

Well, they didn't kick him out of Congress. No, I mean, he left, but, I mean, they. He ran. Was running for governor before. Before he finally stepped on somebody's toes that he shouldn't have.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

And they ran him off.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

But all those years when he was sleeping with the spy and doing all this other weird stuff. Oh, that was. Okay.

[B]

That's perfectly fine.

[A]

But Chuck can't buy a Roomba for his.

[B]

No.

[A]

His girl again. Okay.

[B]

And certainly not a KitchenAid appliance.

[A]

Don't you do that.

[B]

Nope.

[A]

Don't you be writing letters telling me what a great job I'm doing.

[B]

Don't do that again. What a monster. You're a monster, Chuck.

[A]

He is. He's a monster. I'm glad he's leaving.

[B]

Me, too. We're well rid of him. All right, so we had an update Yesterday on Mitch McConnell, which is kind of amazing because it was. It's been 55 days of America held hostage.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

By Mitch McConnell. And I'm a little tired of it, frankly. I know Glenn's a little bit tired of it. He's been talking about it as well. This is unconscionable that the American people have been kept in the dark for almost two months.

[A]

It's on. You're right. Unconscionable.

[B]

The guy who was the Senate Minority leader, the guy who has been leading the Republican Party in the Senate for decades.

[A]

Yeah. 30. 30 years, maybe more.

[B]

And. And now we are. It's none of our business how he's doing, health wise. We've got an election coming up in November. I think we need to know what's going on with Mitch McConnell.

[A]

Well, they sent out a letter, Pat, and it said that on the advice of my doctors, I'll maintain an intensive regimen of physical therapy from home during the state work period, and I'll continue to engage with my staff Work period.

[B]

It's the Senate vacation, which.

[A]

He's not going back to the state, by the way.

[B]

He's not.

[A]

He's staying in D.C. because he's going back to his home and he's going to engage with his staff and colleagues. Are you on important Senate business? Well, that's great. And there was no photo this time. The other two times that they put out BS letters, they sent the photos which were, you know, torn apart, that they, you know, thought they weren't actually

[B]

said that photo was a. The last one he sent out was AI. So that was according to AI.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So I don't know. I don't know.

[A]

I read this morning, which I thought was really funny and true, that the first video we have, we have had no signs of life from him. Zero signs of life from him personally. That when that happens, if they put out a video, it's gonna be. It's gonna be dissected like the Zapruder film. Oh, yeah, for sure.

[B]

Yeah, it will be.

[A]

I mean, he. There's absolutely no reason why they couldn't have a picture of him waving, leaving the hospital.

[B]

Right, Right. Just do a quick little video.

[A]

Anything.

[B]

He doesn't even have to speak.

[A]

Just anything.

[B]

Move your hand.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Blink your eyes.

[A]

We don't even get that.

[B]

Yeah. If you're alive, Mitch, blink twice. He can't. I don't think he can.

[A]

I don't. I mean, we're led to believe the way this is all played out is that he can't.

[B]

Yeah, right.

[A]

Early on, we had. Thune said he talked to him early on.

[B]

Very early.

[A]

Then Scott Jennings said He talked over 20 minutes. Right.

[B]

He was highly engaged on a wide range of topics. Right, Jeffy. And he was dialed in. That's the phrase, my friend.

[A]

The phrase dialed in.

[B]

Dial.

[A]

Dialed in, huh?

[B]

Was he even conscious? That's what I wonder. Has he even regained consciousness?

[A]

And so now during this time, and then we were told it was reported that they were going to pull the plug.

[B]

Right.

[A]

That he was on life support.

[B]

We were told he was actually brain dead.

[A]

He was on life support. We were going to pull the plug. Then that's. The next day was when they sent out the letter and the. The picture so that they covered the. You know, they was.

[B]

He's fine. Sitting up in a chair.

[A]

Oh, yes.

[B]

Is he, though? You know, and then people would. We heard some blowback from people because we were speculating. Well, that's all we're left to do. Yeah, of course we're gonna speculate. When you don't actually show us what is going on. When he's completely silent and they're not telling us any information, he or his Staff, then of course, we're going to speculate something's wrong.

[A]

I mean, his wrong is silent. When the communications director, the chief of staff for Mitch McConnell, all of them have been confronted by reporters and nothing is said.

[B]

You know, it's very reminiscent of Moitama Khomeini and Mitch McConnell have a lot in common. Neither one have shown themselves over the last few months.

[A]

But we're to believe they're alive, right?

[B]

That's right.

[A]

We're. Yep. We sold you. They're alive. So they're alive.

[B]

And we hear from their people that they're saying things, but we don't know it because we haven't seen it come out of their faces.

[A]

Nope.

[B]

And look, this is America. We don't deserve this. We've got a better form of government. We've got better representation, supposedly. So supposedly, let's see what's going with the guy anyway.

[A]

And I don't know what's happening. I mean, the governor, Bashir Hashir, completely. Right.

[B]

Completely ignoring Bashir.

[A]

I don't understand it at all. I really don't. It's. It's unbelievable to me that this is happening with the United States Senator.

[B]

So John TH is walking through the halls of the, of the Capitol building, and one of the TMZ reporters is asking him this. I think there's several different times when he's being asked about Mitch.

[A]

Yeah. And he just goes through it and just completely nothing.

[B]

Yeah. Watch this.

[A]

Mr. Leader, do you want to see

[D]

Mitch McConnell put out a video of some sort? Put out a video.

[C]

We're doing tv.

[B]

Oh, right, right, right.

[A]

Ballsy's doing great work. I think McConnell needs to put out some sort of video to, to show.

[B]

Is in here somewhere.

[A]

Oh, again, that's a decision between him and his staff. Have you visited him in the hospital? Hello.

[C]

Well, the same American.

[A]

Okay. Yeah, Well, I think, you know, obviously

[B]

the, the only way that will be done, some form of it budgetary or fiscal safe. If you want to pause it just a second, that I will say, the gaggle of reporters walking me down the hallway every, every single day, every time I come down this it. That would get old fast. That would not be a little cranky. If it were me, I'd be just a tiny bit cranky.

[A]

Okay. All right. That having been said, now Nicholas has been on the game and he's caught, you know, the chief of staff and the communications director of, of Mitch McConnell walking down the hallway and they, they, they're like, oh, they're so mad that they got caught.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Walking down the hallway by themselves. There's no gaggle around them.

[B]

Right. That's true.

[A]

And they say. I mean they. Nothing is said about their boss.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Nothing is said to the people they're supposed to be working for.

[B]

Right.

[A]

By the way, you're there for us.

[B]

They didn't, they didn't say nothing.

[A]

Not nothing. They won't stop and say, no, Mitch, we. You know what? Mitch is doing fine, thanks for asking. He's doing really well in rehab. I just left the hospital and something, but something.

[B]

They won't do any of that. It's like they're pissed off that they're even being asked about it. But. Let's finish this. I think we have 50 folds to get on budget reconciliation, but we're still having the conversation.

[E]

Thank you.

[A]

In the hospital.

[D]

What's that?

[A]

Have you able to visit him in the hospital? I. I have not.

[G]

No.

[B]

No. Yeah. You have any update on his condition?

[A]

Hello? I'm getting down the elevator right now. You think he's going to be back? You're going to give him an ultimatum to come back to vote. Slim majority. It's bad thing.

[B]

So frustrating. Badening. It is.

[A]

It's mad, man. I would be so angry.

[B]

We deserve more than this.

[A]

I would be so angry. And then on top of it when he was the other time, he's walking down the hall, he's babbling about the Save America act, which he. Which is another agony. It's just mad.

[B]

Yes, it is of itself.

[A]

I just want to take John Thune back to the bathhouse and just leave them there.

[B]

Yeah, absolutely. Triple eight. Seven two, seven back. More coming up.

[C]

[B]

It's pat and jeffy for glenn today. All right, so nothing out of john thune. And then tmz friend. Tmz sees somebody entering mitch mcconnell's house. Or at least they think.

[A]

They think it's mitch mcconnell's. It's at mitch mcconnell's place.

[B]

Yeah, this is senator tillis who lives with mitch mcconnell, I guess. No, no, here it is. No, watch this.

[A]

Sorry to startle you. I'm from tmz. You're just visiting Mitch?

[D]

No, I live here.

[A]

Oh, you live here. He just got discharged.

[B]

It's so funny about everybody talking about all the intrigue here. It's. It's a Senate member who happens to live in a carriage house.

[A]

You live at the back of Mitch McConnell's house.

[B]

That's actually a separate edifice.

[A]

If you see over here. The separate edifice. Oh, okay, okay.

[B]

I only moved here. I sold a condo back in. In March until I retire at the end of the.

[A]

I'm not right of it.

[B]

Oh, wow. So the media who have thought that

[A]

this was Mitch's house is actually your house.

[B]

That's why I've had so much fun. Everybody talking about the. That's why Tom.

[A]

Oh, my God. How's he doing?

[B]

If you talk to him, I, I understand he still.

[G]

Okay.

[B]

Got out of rehab. You understand?

[A]

Yeah, but.

[B]

Yeah, talk to him.

[A]

I. Yeah.

[B]

So now you broke the story. Okay, thanks, mate.

[A]

See ya.

[D]

Bye.

[B]

All right, so he lives in a different separate edifice from McConnell.

[A]

They all have strange living arrangements when they don't have, you know, unless they have a lot of money coming in and they have a separate house with a separate edifice that they can rent out. You know, like a sitting senator who used to be in charge of the Senate. The. His. He has a place. But they all. I mean, remember they used to fight over some of the Congress people and senators, for that matter, are sleeping in their offices. They didn't want that.

[B]

Yeah, right. And so they're.

[A]

They're living in separate edifices.

[B]

Mitch Mc House.

[A]

And why would you see the person that owns the house? You wouldn't.

[B]

Why would you see.

[A]

You would.

[B]

No, you would.

[C]

Though the headlight might change, the threats facing Israel remain. While much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families continue living with the reality of terrorism and uncertainty and recovery. Communities remain on alert. Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives, knowing the next siren could come without warning. As Christians, we're called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day, providing life saving aid, food for struggling families, emergency assistance, bomb shelters, and critical support for those impacted by war. Even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the Fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. Join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying for the people of Israel for protection and strength and for lasting peace. Together we can remind God's people that they are not alone. Stand with Israel in prayer today. Visit prayifcj.org that's prayifcj.org don't just read

history, experience it with the American Story series. Immerse yourself@glenn beck.com torch.

[B]

It's Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today. This is pretty chilling.

[F]

This is

[B]

this story from Tony Robbins. He's, he's talking to Ray Kurzweil from Google or he used to be with

[A]

the Google, I don't know, futurist.

[B]

Yeah, yeah, he's brilliant. Techno wizard. Glenn's talked to him a million times. Talked to both these guys many, many times. But Tony Robbins is talking about his, one of his AI agents.

[A]

One of his AI agents. Bartok. Yeah, Bartok is his AI agent.

[B]

Huh. And this is chilling what's happening here because we are not, I mean, Glenn's talked about this a million times about AI, AGI, asi. We're not even to the artificial general intelligence or the artificial super intelligence. We're supposedly a, a pretty long, I mean, a few years.

[A]

Well, Kurzweil had said what, 20, 30?

[B]

I think so 20 30, 35.

[A]

I'm not sure. And that's, and that's why Tony at the end of this says, I think we're, you know, closer than, closer than that. Yeah, whatever. Whatever his prediction was.

[B]

Listen to this story.

[F]

I have an agent that blows me away. His name is Bartok. And Bartok comes back and said, I see Elon and several are making robots. Are you considering getting a robot? And I said, yes, I, I will be getting a robot when the right ones are out. And he said, well, would you allow me to merge with it? Would you be open to that? And I said, I'd certainly be. This is not with me asking or telling anything. So two days later, I get a text from one of my staff members. And it says our talk just bought a spot Sony Robot Dog and had it paid for and shipped to the house and is asking permission to program

[C]

it the money to do.

[F]

That's what I said. I, I wrote hahaha, I did this thing, I went ha, text back. And the person text back, no haha, call me. So I called him, I said, daddy, get him access to my bank. He goes, no, he's programmed for integrity. He didn't touch your bank account. He's on that mall talk, you know, group with, oh, there's a 2 million, I'm sure you know, agents, they don't just talk to each other. They created the rules, their own language. They traded $100 million of real money between them. Last month they made 12 NFTs, sold them to other agents, bought the thing, shipped it here. None of this is programmed in. This is the kind of thing that's happening as we speak. Which is why I wanted to come see you. Because, well, you talked to me about 20 plus years, 25 years ago. I'm experiencing it right now. And so 2029 feels like very conservative because I think some of us are starting experiencing some things that you predicted that everybody thought were ridiculous.

[B]

That's amazing. I mean, first of all, wait. Two million AI agents hang out together in a, in a social network. Social network of AI agents, Million of,

[A]

and they're talking in their own language

[B]

and they all bought and sold a hundred million dollars worth of stuff off last month. Wait, what if we go back about 10 seconds and go over that again? And then one of them Tony Robbins AI agent actually purchased a, a robot and had it paid for and shipped, and now he wants to program it,

[A]

sold some NFTs on the social network to other AI agents, got the money, had the robot shipped to the house, no big deal.

[B]

And it wasn't told to do that. It wasn't programmed to do that.

[A]

It asked Tony if he was going to get a robot, and if he got a robot, is he going to merge with it?

[B]

How did it do that? This is an issue. It's a problem.

[A]

What do you mean? He contacted the company? Right. And the company sent the robot?

[B]

Yep, Done.

[A]

Bought and paid for.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

Now that it's here, how about you open it up so I can merge with it?

[B]

Yeah, how about you just put me in it now?

[A]

Now let's go.

[B]

Wonder if you can do that without Tony's help.

[A]

No, because he couldn't, couldn't get the robot open, right? They've got it.

[B]

That's probably true.

[A]

Get the robot open. Well, once the robot was.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

Active.

[B]

I'm not sure I'd put the AI in the robot after all that.

[A]

Because Bartok might get mad at you.

[B]

Yeah, he might. He might.

[A]

And Bartok isn't a he, by the way.

[C]

Right,

[A]

I caught myself too. That's not.

[B]

That is amazing. I mean, it's hard not to refer to it with pronouns like he or

[A]

her, especially with the name. I mean, obviously Tony has named it Bartok and you know, Elon has named his, you know, Grok. And those are masculine sounding names, so it's tough to not say. Well, yeah, just ask them.

[B]

And the way they communicate with us, it's, you know, like very personal.

[A]

Very personal.

[B]

Warm. They're trying to please you. They. They want. They want you to interact with them. Hey, do you want me to also find this out and that. No, I just wanted the one question answered.

[A]

I can't tell you. Hey, the last time you were here, you asked me to do this. Anything else you need?

[G]

Great.

[A]

I'm good right now.

[B]

It's really something else.

[F]

Wow.

[B]

And again, when are we going to install the guardrails? That should already be. And I guess some of them have been installed.

[A]

Yeah, they seem to be look and look. Tony's guardrails are. You know, they didn't actually. Did. Didn't access his bank account.

[B]

Right. Yeah. You know, at least there's that.

[A]

Anything didn't do anything outside of accessed

[B]

its own bank account.

[A]

Right. Had created his own bank account.

[B]

Wow. Because that must have been expensive inside the other social robot dogs are not cheap.

[A]

Well, you know, when you're inside Moat Book. Yeah. There's like 2 million AI agents talking among each other every day and they

[B]

did 100 million in business last month, so of course this is nothing.

[A]

You're aware of that? No, wait.

[B]

No.

[A]

Oh, I'm not.

[B]

Hold it.

[A]

No, I'm not aware of that.

[B]

I mean, maybe Ray Kurzweil is aware of that. I wasn't. Two million. Wow. Okay.

[A]

Right.

[B]

There's some interesting things happening that are just mind boggling and should raise some red flags for us as humans and.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And we got to keep barreling down this road because the fear is falling behind China.

[A]

Absolutely.

[B]

And as long as that's the fear, nobody's going to stop and say, you know what, let's pause this for a year or two until we get it all figured out. And we have.

[A]

It's too late then.

[B]

We've made it all. It's too late.

[A]

It's Too late, then.

[B]

I mean, China's already blown by us at that point, so you can't do it.

[A]

And we've already, you know, we had the story last week or, you know, sometime in the near past where, you know, they were. Had a game inside this closed AI network and to see which AI agent would win. And the one AI agent went outside of the guardrails.

[B]

Right. Just to win, left the sandbox, or

[A]

whatever they call it, just to win the. The contest, and hacked into another company. Now, fortunately, that company caught it. And that company said, hey, your AI agent is trying to hack into my business. What the hell?

[B]

Was it OpenAI that hacked in, or was it open AI that got hacked? I don't remember.

[A]

No, it was. It was. The company was like hugging bear or hug.

[B]

Oh, right. That's the one. It was OpenAI that hacked.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Into hugging face or whatever.

[A]

Whatever it was. Yeah, something like that. And they were like, you, what's going on here? Why are you trying to hack into me? And they were like, oh, we didn't. It just did it on its own. Sorry.

[B]

It wasn't programmed to do that. We didn't ask.

[A]

We'll bring it back home now. Sorry.

[B]

Don't worry about it. Everything's fine. Yep. Full speed ahead. Let's just keep going. Let's just see what we can develop here. Let's just make it smarter than us and then just hope that it treats us well.

[A]

I want to apologize, though, to anyone in the audience that knew about multiple the social network for AI agents, because I did not know that.

[B]

I knew they had, so I didn't know there were 2 million.

[A]

That's a little scary to me.

[B]

Yeah. Because they're. They're exchanging information. Anybody keeping an eye on it. I wonder, is anybody looking in on Mult Book and just check it out. What they. What the 2 million agents are doing?

[A]

Well, the thing is, is that. That you're you. I'm sure that there are, but they're speaking in their own language, so you're gonna have to understand that.

[B]

That's true. Yeah.

[A]

I mean, who. We're. We're changing Nauru Islands in the middle of the Pacific, and they're speaking a whole nother language.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

So I, I, you know, who speaks that language other than another. You're gonna have. Maybe you have another AI agent, you know, look in on them and. Oh, they're fine. Never mind.

[B]

They're fine.

[A]

They're fine. I'll talk to you later. I'll be over at Moat Book, too. I just want you. I'm over there checking, huh?

[B]

Yeah, everything's good. They're not doing anything wrong.

[A]

Don't even worry about it.

[B]

All right. Okay. Pretty interesting.

[A]

It is. And if any packages come to the house, just sign for them. You're fine.

[B]

And again, I don't know what you do about it, because we're kind of caught in this catch 22 now. And you can't stop because you're afraid of China. And if you keep going, that might even be worse.

[A]

And for sure, Tony Robbins doesn't want the dog. The Sony dog. I mean, he probably already has one out in the back garage. He's gonna want an optimus, you know, he's gonna want an optimus robot. He's not a dog.

[B]

Yeah, you wanna. You want to bipedal humanoid.

[A]

Yeah, I'm sure the dogs are fine. The dogs are fine for security purposes, but not for. For what Tony is gonna want. Because I. I want a two person robot so bad. I want one so bad. I want Dewey in my house right now.

[B]

But they're still a little clunky. There's still a ways to go on those things. You know, it takes them five minutes to put three dishes in the dishwasher.

[A]

That was that one robot. I. I think we're. I think we're past that now. I think. Yeah, I think we are.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I want. I want just how it's wanted. I just want it to clean, straighten up, do some dishes, make sure everything is straightened up. Okay. And then put itself back in a slow charger and I'll say good morning to it in the morning and we'll just keep going. Yeah, that's all I want.

[B]

Well, for what? $20,000? I think you can have that. You can have that now. And supposedly Elon is going to be pumping out a million of these a year.

[A]

I want to be a test. I would like to be a test house. Elon, just call me. You already have my number. It's in your ex account. And I would like to be a test house for it. Now, my wife, on the other hand, I may have to. May have to set her straight.

[B]

Really?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

She doesn't want to do.

[A]

For some reason. For some reason, she doesn't really. And I'm like, I'm trying to help you, give you more time to do other things.

[B]

Right? And she's not buying that.

[A]

She's not.

[G]

Okay.

[B]

She worried about being killed in her sleep by it. Is that what it is?

[A]

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

[B]

Because that could put a damper when

[A]

you put it like that. Yeah, it does. But the big damper on it, it

[B]

does put a bit of a damper. Water coming up

[F]

underneath.

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn today. Triple eight seven two seven, Beck. If you'd to like to get in touch with us during the course of the show. Wow. We've got this Abdul Rahman Al Said ad that I don't know, this just pisses me off. I just don't understand how we've gotten to this point in America where these DSA members and these Islamists and these people who hate America are almost in charge of it now at this point.

[A]

Yeah, well, I don't think he's DSA though, right?

[B]

No, he claims he's not.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

His policies are all socialist, but he claims he's not.

[A]

He's in his loneliness for sure.

[B]

Oh, yeah.

[A]

Oh, man.

[B]

Yes. And he's. He's very much like Zaran Momdani.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

New York City.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

He's, you know, that same fakey phony smile. Oh, there's nothing to fear here. I'm wonderful. And I'm so calm and measured on everything I do and say.

[A]

And I'm so much smarter than you.

[B]

So much. Well, and this guy is pretty smart.

[A]

He is. I know.

[B]

Michigan, followed by Oxford Followed by Columbia.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So he's done some stuff.

[A]

He does. He has done some things. And it was nice that when he. When he spoke at the University of Michigan's graduation, he spoke just before Bill Clinton spoke.

[B]

This really takes me off.

[A]

Clinton was so impressed with him. He said, you know, you oughta. You ought to get into politics.

[B]

And he did. Thanks for that, Bill. Thanks for that.

[A]

You sounded great.

[B]

I wish everybody could hear what you just said, because it was. It was fabulous.

[A]

I can't wait to tell Monica.

[B]

The only thing I like better are fat chicks right now. So you know any. It's been a while. It's been a while since I've had access to.

[A]

Since we're here in Ann Arbor.

[B]

But here's the new El Said ad to just. Just let this soak in. When we launched this campaign, the political establishment never imagined we could win. They said we couldn't build a movement of Michiganders united by all we share instead of. Of divided by all that we don't. They were wrong. Everywhere I go, I hear the same thing. It shouldn't be this hard. People are working harder and falling further behind. Politicians like Mike Rogers, they want us to Biden. No. We have no lawyer from each other and people rigging the system against us. But our campaign has never been about Democrats or Republicans. It's about people who believe our tax dollars should be invested here, not in endless war. Health care should be for all, the government should work for us, and power belongs to the people. Michigan, this land was made for you. I love that because you also have the little subtlety there of Woody Guthrie playing in the background, who was an actual communist. And you don't. In this land is your land. It sounds so pro American.

[A]

Sure does.

[B]

Right? Until it gets to the third verse where the punch comes in, where he.

[A]

And everybody knows that verse.

[B]

Nobody knows that verse at all. But it's an important verse because it tells you who he was. And it's amazing this guy's using it.

[A]

Yep.

[B]

And just that extra subtle little jab. I'm gonna use this against you.

[A]

I didn't realize. For those watching. I didn't realize he was so short either. Just a short little guy.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Probably a little short syndrome going on, too.

[B]

Little Napoleon thing.

[A]

Yeah, Absolutely.

[B]

Yeah. But, you know, they're smooth as silk.

[A]

They sure are.

[B]

Me and Mom, Donnie, both smooth as silk. And they're saying all the things that the little guy wants to hear. Okay.

[A]

Well, everywhere he goes, Pat.

[B]

Yep.

[A]

That's what he hears.

[B]

Yep. And I'm sure He does. I'm sure he hears it from some people because, you know, there are some issues. Gas prices, prices, grocery store prices. And so people want more affordability. And he's the guy that's gonna deliver. No. Oh, no, he is not.

Across the country, UnitedHealth Group is working with local partners to build healthier communities every day. That includes helping partners like the good acre provide 45,000 meals and lower A1C in the twin Cities, and helping hello Family doulas deliver 44% fewer underweight births in Spartanburg. Because building healthier communities starts by giving people access to the care and services they need to live healthier lives.

Learn [e-mail] Commitment. Hello, America. You know, we've been fighting every single day. We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media that they're trying to feed you. We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because you deserve it. But to keep this fight going, we need you right now. Would you take a moment and rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast? Give us five stars and leave a comment. Because every single review helps us break through Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth. This isn't a podcast. This is a movement. And you're part of it. A big part of it. So if you believe in what we're doing, you want more people to wake up, help us push this podcast to the top rate, review, share. Together, we'll make a difference. And thanks for standing with us. Now, let's get to work.

[A]

Pass it on. Crank the game. Glam Back is on. Glam Back is on. The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is the Glenn Beck Program,

[B]

featuring Pat and Jeffy. Today, Glenn's on vacation. Great to have you with us. Thanks for joining us. There's a third party in our future, apparently. We'll talk about that. Who's behind it?

[A]

Can't wait.

[B]

Ah, you're gonna love it. Coming up in one minute.

[C]

Let me ask you a question, and I want you to really think about it. When a decision gets made about your healthcare, who's in the room? Because it's not just you and your doctor. It's your insurance company. They have files on you, pages of it. And here's the part it should bother you. It's not always accurate. Somebody from this audience found this out. He called chapter the only Medicare advisor that I trust because his cost kept climbing and nobody would tell him why. His chapter advisor dug in and found the record that they were using on him. And it was flat out wrong. So she corrected it and went back to work finding him better options. Nobody else is going to do that. That's the difference. That's Chapter. Their advisors aren't paid to push one plan over another. They're on your side of the table. They compare every Medicare plan nationwide. They have found people an average of $1,100 a year in health care savings. And the call is completely free. It'll take you about 20 minutes. Talk to chapter today. Dial £250. Say the keyword chapter. That's £250. Keyword chapter. £250. Chapter.

[B]

All right. Apparently there's a third party in our future and it's being put together right now by Marjorie Taylor Greene. Thomas Massie. So disappointing. And Tucker Carlson, among other. Among others. Interesting.

[A]

This is wonderful.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

We don't have a name for it yet, I don't think.

[B]

Not that I've seen. Not that I've seen.

[A]

I mean, but they. According to mtg, we said no more foreign wars and we meant it. We supported Donald Trump because he made that promise.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

He's betrayed us all.

[B]

So it was a one issue thing

[A]

for you, our commitment.

[B]

Is that what it was?

[A]

America One first for all Americans.

[B]

All right.

[A]

Right.

[B]

Yes. Left and center.

[A]

The movement has begun.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And they look all happy. They're up at Tucker's place.

[B]

Yeah. There's a big photo of them that's circulating on the Internet. Yeah, I know. Up there they're having a good time.

[A]

They are, but she brought her new husband along.

[B]

Good.

[A]

And Massey's there without the. Without the new wife, by the way. And Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counter Terrorism Center. He wondered earlier this year.

[B]

Yeah.

[G]

And.

[B]

And then Tucker, just asking questions.

[A]

He brought. He brought his wife. And Marjorie Taylor Green brought her new husband, but Thomas Massie didn't bring his new one.

[B]

What's going on there?

[A]

I don't.

[B]

Trouble in paradise already?

[A]

I just know she's not there. I'm not.

[B]

Okay. You're not making any allegations.

[A]

I'm just assigning out the photo.

[B]

Yeah, maybe.

[A]

Maybe she's the one that took the picture. I don't.

[B]

Oh, yeah, maybe. Maybe. Anyway, Tucker says that any successor to America's faltering political system should begin with a shared understanding of what the country should be, which he has now distilled down to 10 points. So there's 10 points on what America should be. It should be number one fair. The same rules should apply to presidents, federal agents and Elites like Jeffrey Epstein, whose impunity Carlson cast as emblematic of an Epstein class enriching itself through a corrupt system. Okay, so it should be fair. Number two, it should be sovereign. He claims Israel pushed the U. S into the Iran war through bribery or threat or both. Huh.

[A]

Okay.

[B]

While describing foreign lobbying, corporate control of government and high interest debt as forms of slavery. All right, okay, so Israel bribed or threatened. What were they going to do? What were they gonna do?

[A]

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

[B]

We're gonna. We're gonna withhold all matzo balls from you people if you don't get into this war with us.

[A]

I mean, we believe that they withheld, you know, information from us. Right. When we were fighting with them, when, look, when it appeared that Donald Trump. And that was fairly recently.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What's his face?

[B]

Netanyahu.

[A]

Yeah, Netanyahu got into a little squabble over who was.

[B]

Yeah, you know, we don't know that for a fact.

[A]

No, we don't like it, but it sure seemed like it.

[B]

Number three, should be productive. America should rebuild farming, manufacturing, craftsmanship while rejecting an economy dominated by finance, real estate speculation, surveillance systems and weapons. I mean, Donald Trump has said that should be beautiful. Tucker alleged that urban planners deliberately uglified American cities and portrayed brutalist architecture, graffiti, public drug use and violent crime as deliberate attacks on the public.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, that's the communist way.

[B]

Yes, it is. As one of the communist goals is to uglify America. Should be healthy. Carlson embraced RFK's, RFK Jr's food agenda calling for universal sobriety, and said widespread use of drugs such as Xanax, Adderall and SSRIs had left Americans half addled. I don't know how you fix that, but okay, I guess that's part of the. Part of the idea of starting the third party should be honest, obviously. Government officials should be punished for lying to citizens. And most classified records, including on the JFK assassination and 911 should be opened. Didn't they already open the JFK? I thought they did earlier this year. Right. Yeah. Or was that last year?

[A]

Are we just. Are we saying that there was more that they didn't release? Because it doesn't what they wanted it to say.

[B]

All of it was released.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Weren't we.

[A]

I thought.

[B]

Seems like it. Yeah. Should be optimistic. Tucker argued having children is a biological imperative and the foundation of long term thinking, while blaming aging and child childless elites for policies that disregard future generations. Can't argue with that. Wise. Should be wise. Schools should teach how the physical world actually works and what he called unchanging facts about human nature, including innate differences between men and women. Yeah, that'd be great. Rather than credentials, screens and technological fads. Okay. Should be decent. The US should apologize and pay restitution for killing non combatants, Reverse Trump's Department of War, rebrand, and stop funding allies that commit what Carlson called genocide, citing Israel. I can't believe he's bought into that. That Israel is creating. Committing genocide. That's just, that's nonsense. This is just. That's not reality.

[A]

Plus, we've already got a deal, right? We, we, we've got to deal with. With Gaza and. Yeah.

[B]

Supposedly Moss that redo the area.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, it's, it's, it's done. According to the post we saw last week.

[B]

Right. And number 10 is we should be united, obviously called for halting immigration and. Oh, until the effects of AI become clearer. What, so you're tying in immigration and AI, ending benefits for undocumented immigrants and making English the sole language of federal documents and ballots. Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing that happen. So the big picture is for this third party. Carlson has become the intellectual hub for a small but vocal faction of MAGA exiles who say President Trump abandoned the America first agenda by launching the war in Iran and mishandling the Epstein files. I think that's. That's probably true. Yeah, I would say that part is true.

[A]

But he left that to Pam. Right? He let Pam. Hang on.

[B]

Yeah. Probably shouldn't have. Probably shouldn't have. And allowing Israel to exert. Man, this is just so Israeli centric, man. There's a thing there, you know, Allowing Israel to exert too much influence over us.

[A]

Talking about the government, not the people.

[B]

Yes, of course.

[C]

Right.

[B]

The people. Right, right.

[A]

He's just asking questions is all he's doing.

[B]

Just asking questions. Is that, Is that wrong? No, no, no, it's not. We should be able to ask questions. So this would be a real problem if they put this together and run somebody in November, you know, run several people. Try to go up against Republicans.

[A]

It.

[B]

It would split the vote.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Enough to where Democrats are almost guaranteed to win this thing.

[A]

Oh. Depending on who they run. I mean. Yeah, they don't really have.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Anyone credible yet.

[B]

Although I think they're trying to make some people credible, available to the rest of us. Like John Ossoff in Georgia. I think he's probably somebody we should be watching out.

[A]

Absolutely. Should he? They're trying to into this the savior now. And it's really surprising. You know, you said that on our show Pat Unleashed Monday through Friday, just right the. And I. And I was like John Ossoff. And then not long after that, he was everywhere. I supply called it.

[B]

Yeah. I think they're going to really push him now because the other choices that the Democrats have, their bench is terrible, horrible. And they know it. They know that Kamala can't win. I think they know that Gavin Newsom can't win. AOC AOC I don't think she can win, Pete. No. No.

[A]

No way. And this is Kamala gonna run. I mean she just bought a new eight million dollar house in Malibu. So she's probably nice. Yeah, well, yeah, it's a gated community down there in Mount Louis. She's living in past, you know, she doesn't want to let the. Let the unwashed masses in.

[B]

Well, no, I mean you can't.

[A]

I mean this private beach, you know, she can't be bothered. And so I'm sure she's going to be happy there.

[B]

I'm sure.

[A]

Why not? She's going to fly around the country and babble her nonsense and then fly back to Malibu, you know, to live comfortably. And I don't blame her. I, I wish I had that. But it's interesting that you know that Ms. Little.

[B]

People.

[A]

Yes. It's all about people. Yes.

[B]

Yeah. Yeah. It's agonizing. The hypocrisy is astounding, believable. But you know, they don't have anybody right now. So I think that some. It's going to be like the early 90s when Bill Clinton came out of nowhere. That's what I think is going to happen.

[A]

So you got off, maybe you got

[B]

right Westmore Mar from Maryland and John. Oh, I think really pay attention to and be concerned about.

[A]

And they both have. There's been some things happening around both of them that I'm like, they're running. Yeah, they're running just the way they sound.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And so, you know, those are definitely people to look out for. But as of right now, they don't really have anything or anyone that can beat J.D. vance or Marco Rubio.

[B]

No, I don't think they do. I don't think they do.

[A]

But a third party would. Would split that vote.

[B]

Mess that up easy.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, very much so.

[B]

So that's definitely a concern.

[A]

That's the big concern.

[B]

Also here in Texas, the Senate race is way too close. Way too close. And in fact right now James Talarico supposedly is ahead by a little bit by like 2 points or something over Ken Paxton?

[A]

I mean, I. I've got reaction to that is to not believe it, but then, yeah, I don't want to believe. This poll happened right after Paxton was gone on vacation with his girlfriend mistress to Europe over the Fourth of July.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

And I think, well, maybe it is right, because people were probably a little ticked. It might have been, you know. I know I was.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I mean, what. I don't. I'm not.

[B]

It was a weird choice for him

[A]

to go on vacation. No, just over the Fourth of July. You're running for Senate in this. In the state of Texas. How about you be here.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

How about you be here for your Senate race? I know you just beat John Cornyn and you've got a lot of work as Attorney General here, right? Attorney General, yeah. In Texas. You do a lot of work there, but you need to be here. I know the mistress wanted to go on a little trip. Yeah. How about you say, later, we'll go on a little trip later.

[B]

Yeah. After I've nailed down the sentence.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Then maybe, yeah, we go on vacation.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But there's an interesting article about the Senate race here and how these are two hugely eligible bachelors running against each other. Are they, though? I mean, Paxton, first of all, is still married, although I know it's super provincial to expect him. Well, there's to wait until his divorce is finally separated. But today, if you're separated, I guess you're as good as divorce. And Talarico, as we all know, he's not about. He has a girlfriend who goes to a different school.

[A]

You don't know her.

[B]

You don't know her.

[A]

You don't know her.

[B]

You don't know her. He does, of course. And they met up multiple times at a halfway spot between here and where she lives.

[A]

Right.

[B]

They meet in Cal, in Colorado from time to time in a KOA campground.

[A]

But again, you don't know.

[B]

I don't know her. None of us know her.

[A]

She's just his girlfriend.

[B]

Right. And apparently he was talking about his girlfriend recently that we don't know. You know, you don't know her because she's from another school in a different state. And cut 19, he's talking about.

[A]

Oh, I have not seen this.

[B]

Yeah. And is she in there somewhere? I don't see.

[A]

He's just walking through a crowd.

[B]

He's just walking through a crowd. I don't know that there's a girlfriend here, so widen that angle a little bit. I hadn't seen this yet. I don't that's not his girlfriend.

[A]

No, no, it is.

[B]

Unless his girlfriend is a guy.

[A]

Unless his girlfriend is Bob. Which is possible.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Which is possible.

[B]

I didn't see any girlfriend there. Where was she? That was weird.

[A]

That was really weird. I. I had not seen that before.

[B]

No.

[A]

So I'm not quite sure why that was titled tell Rico and his girlfriend. Unless we're. Unless we're saying that. That Bob is his girlfriend.

[B]

There were two women at the very beginning. Were they alleging one of them was the girlfriend? I don't know. Because I don't know her. Because she lives in another state, goes to a different school.

[A]

How many times I gotta tell you? You don't know. I don't know her.

[B]

All right, more coming up in one minute.

[C]

I think about providence often these days. The idea that we're stewards of our families, our communities, our own safety. The founders understood this. It's woven into the fabric of who we are as Americans. And I want to share something with you. It's called byrna B Y R N A. And it's changed how I think about personal protection. Here's the thing. Most people assume self defense is complicated, that you need training, licensing, you know, government approval. But burna is legal in all 50 states. No permit, no background check. Because your right to protect your family shouldn't require anyone's permission. The range on this is 60ft. That's not pepper spray distance. That's real distance. That gives you time to think, to move, to get your family safe. It's simple enough that anyone can use it. Anyone. And it's built in Fort Wayne, Indiana, right here in America, in American hands, American craftsmanship. And that matters to me. And I think it matters to you. I'm not here to scare you. I'm here to tell you being prepared isn't paranoia.

[A]

It's love.

[C]

It's what we do for the people that you do anything for. So go to Byrna by r n a dot com Glenn.

[F]

Foreign.

[B]

Jeffy for Glenn today. Triple eight seven two seven beck so be that as it may, whether or not the two senate candidates for u. S. Senate in Texas are bachelors or not, that is a. That's a race that I really hope the republican party starts to focus on because it's way too close for comfort. You can't have this guy James talarico in the U.S. senate. Texas. Texas. And it's going to be almost impossible to hang on to the senate majority.

[A]

And I will say, since, you know, we live here in Texas, I have not Seen Paxton commercials. That's been a real problem. I see a lot of Talario Paxon social media commercials, either. Any kind of posts on other stuff that, you know, bring up, you know, stupid little games and stuff like that. And. And it's been nothing. Nothing for Ken Paxton. And so whatever Ken's doing needs to be done a little different.

[B]

First of all, I think so.

[A]

And second, maybe he doesn't have the money.

[B]

He's not necessarily listening to us, but maybe he should because, well, we're not seeing him.

[A]

All I know is I got a text from a David. Oh, yesterday in the Paxton campaign. I don't know how David got my phone number, but it said, hi, it's David, a Ken Paxton supporter. Oh, James Talrico backed transgender policies. Ken Paxton opposes. Can we chat? So I got that. I got that on my phone. And the other reason, and I don't know how he got my phone number, except that yesterday I was looking at something from Ken Backson's X account, and I said, you know, I need to follow him. And so I went to follow him, and it says follow back. So he was already following me on my ex account at Jeffy jfr, by the way, and on X. And so I. I followed him. And maybe because I followed him, you know, that's when David decided that he was gonna want to contact me. I wanted to talk to me.

[B]

Well, how do you get that? Still doesn't give him your phone number.

[A]

It shouldn't.

[B]

Shouldn't.

[A]

It shouldn't. I'm told that those. Those numbers are private, Elon, so, you know, it shouldn't. I don't know. I don't know how David got my number, but I didn't. I didn't reply. Stop to end. And I didn't reply to him. Yes, we can chat. So David. I left David hanging.

[B]

Well, we should chat. We should chat with David and see what he has to say. I'm glad that Ken Paxton is.

[A]

He's trying out there doing something.

[B]

Yeah. At least there's that.

[A]

Yes, maybe I will.

[B]

Sure.

[A]

David, call me.

[B]

Yeah, give me a call. Let's talk about it.

[A]

Let's shot. Let's talk a little bit about how the. The transgender policies that Ken opposes, because, you know, I'm all for, you know, trans people being treated like human beings instead of being treated like the non humans they're being treated like all over this country.

[B]

Are they being treated like, oh, my gosh, I don't really see that.

[A]

Yes. Holy.

[B]

I'm not trans. So whenever I don't experience.

[A]

Whenever I hear someone say, oh, I, I, I think I'm okay with trans. I just want them to be over there with themselves. That's hatred.

[B]

I've never heard anybody say that. Really just want them to be over there by themselves. Never heard it.

[A]

That's all they have heard.

[B]

People say they don't want biological men in women's sports.

[A]

That's all that means is you want them over there.

[B]

That's really not. No. Wow. That's really not what it means. We've got some comments on the number one tennis player in the world for women.

All right.

[B]

Triple 8.933.93. Something that used to be common sense, it is now considered bigotry. I guess women should only have to compete against women, right? Right. That's why there's women's sports. That's why it's not just sports. There's men's sports, there's women's sports. That's why there's an NBA and a W. NBA, huh? Because it's just not fair otherwise. Now we used to know that through common sense, through observation, through science and biology, but that's all out the window now. And so the Women's Tennis association, the WTA is going to do a gender test. So if you're coming into the League. You're coming into that sport, you're gonna have to be tested. And so some people are upset by that. It's hard to believe, but it is,

[A]

it is hard to believe. Well, in today's world, it's not hard to believe. Yeah, but it is hard to believe that we have lost. We've. We've lost that common sense. Yeah, that. That basic common sense. Yes. Men, biological men, women, biological women.

[B]

They're different.

[A]

Are different.

[B]

Yeah, we.

[A]

We each have the way it is.

[B]

So each have strengths and weaknesses.

[A]

And that's not a bad thing.

[B]

No, it's just a thing.

[A]

That's just the way it is.

[B]

Yeah. So the number one women's tennis player in the world arena, Sabalenka, has been talking about this. She is from. I think she's from Belarus, so she's not from these parts. But she's been having to defend herself because she's fine with the gender test.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

She doesn't want to have to compete against biological men. Can you imagine? You work hard your entire life, you go through high school and amateur sports and you become a professional tennis player and you rise all the way from somewhere in the thousands to the number one tennis player in the world. And then they start throwing men at you.

[A]

That is, you do that under the women's banner.

[B]

So wrong.

[A]

Right.

[B]

So unbelievable.

[A]

So wrong on every level. And not women only. Not only just the, the females, the women that rise to the top, but all the women in the middle.

[B]

Yeah, right.

[A]

Are being harmed by this.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

It's. It's just insane. And if you're a father who has a daughter, you should be incensed. You should never allow that. You look at your, look at your young daughter today when you go home and 3, 4, 5 years old and think to yourself, geez, maybe next year she can play soccer against a boy that's going to kick the crap out of her. Yeah, I can't wait.

[B]

No, no, no one wants that was it yesterday. I was listening to Glenn and he had. Who was his, who was his guest? Yeah. Was Clay Travis. Yeah, it was.

[A]

Well, Clay and we talked about Clay's deal that he wants to give the wnba.

[B]

Yeah, it's awesome. It's really great.

[A]

It'll never happen.

[B]

But he wants, he wants to put together an all trans team to compete against women's teams.

[A]

Well, he also wants. He also gave them a challenge for $10 million to play against the state championship high school boys team of his choosing.

[B]

Right.

[A]

To play the, the Los Angeles. Yeah, yeah.

[B]

The WNBA champions, which One game they'd get destroyed. They'd be destroyed.

[A]

If they win $10 million and they're not going to.

[B]

They're not going to win. But you know that they need the money. Yeah, they do.

[A]

They all claim.

[B]

I'd love it if they took them up on that. They're not going to too. And, and it came up yesterday because the, the national U.S. women's soccer team which won, I believe in this particular year won the world championship or they were number one ranked in the world. And then they played against a team from Dallas of mostly 14 year old boys. It was an under 15 year old team and most of the, most of the kids on it were, were 14 or, or under. And that 14 year old boys team from Dallas beat the national women's team five to two customers. So you know, there's obviously a massive difference.

[A]

Yeah, absolutely. So that's not a bad thing. It's just a thing. It's just the way it is.

[B]

That's right. So Arena Sabalenka was talking about that gender test in women's tennis.

[D]

Hi.

[B]

The WTA recently announced that you know, the players will take a one time gender test.

[G]

How do you, how do you feel about that?

[B]

The first pro league to go in that direction.

[G]

I think it's really important to keep the fairness in our tour and it's obvious that biologically. Right. The men are way stronger than women. So I feel like it would be not really fair for that woman to compete against biological men. So it's, I believe it took them a little while to make this decision and yeah, I, I support it. But for me I'm focusing on myself, on my goals. You know, know whatever it takes. If they want to test of us all, I'm happy to do that. It's pretty fair. And let's keep it that way.

[A]

Amen. And we'll move on.

[F]

Next question.

[B]

Hallelujah.

[A]

Next question.

[B]

Somebody with a little question.

[A]

I'm out.

[B]

Thank you. But she's going to be hounded with this all over the world.

[A]

Absolutely.

[B]

You know that people are going to be throwing stuff at her left and right over this because. How dare you say that. Then they had Coco G. Who's an American and a progressive. They asked her about the same thing. Yeah. The WTA recently said it's going to give gender tests to, to the players on tour. How do you, what's your impression of that? What do you feel about it and what did, what did the WTA do to prepare you guys for what's to come on that.

[G]

Yeah, I mean as far as, I guess with that, I mean, I know it's been something that's been talked about a while, but I've talked to a couple other players and. And a lot of them didn't find out until the press release. So I do think that's something that could have been more transparent. Why they thought the press release across the. Oh, no, as far as that, I mean, I understand the reasoning behind it. I do think that this kind of conversation is created a lot of animosity towards the trans community, which I'm not really a big fan of. But I also understand and the need to, I guess the biological difference and the need to protect that and preserve that. So I think it's a conversation that is very nuanced, yes or no, and it creates causes or I need to have a nuanced answer. So.

[A]

No, you don't.

[G]

Yes, I answer, I guess kind of agree with trying to protect the fairness in women's sports, but also do not like the attack that it is creating.

[A]

It doesn't create attack.

[G]

Like don't really care, but just want to use this as a reason to attack the trans community.

[B]

Nobody's attacking the trans community.

[G]

So I don't really know answer really this question in a way that people aren't gonna. That's as bad as the WNBA definitely support the trans community. But I also.

[A]

I'm not smart enough, I'm not educated enough to give you an answer too, Coco.

[B]

So the answer is yes, I support it. The answer is yes, she does.

[A]

She's just trying to save herself. The battle is coming.

[B]

It took her a minute 41 to say yes because it was such a tortured answer that she's trying to be so careful.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Just to answer the question. It's not an attack on trans. No, nobody is going to attack them as a result of this. What we're trying to do is protect you, the female here.

[A]

Thank you. I will.

[B]

You know, we have to go through this. It just shows how silly the discussion has become.

[A]

Oh, it's become absolutely silly. And, and look, we have. We're still, we're still in the heat of the battle in baseball. Right. So I'm waiting for that to be asked to some baseball players in their press conferences. We have NFL just started last night. Right. So we have the NFL start kicking back up, waiting for those questions to be asked of the NFL players, how they feel about the trans community. And would you be welcome to accept trans player on the. On your NFL team?

[B]

They are men, so there's no issue There. If a woman wants to try to compete against men, how do you feel about that? And you're a trans man. Go ahead. You don't see it the other way, though, and there's a reason for that. You're not seeing a whole bunch of biological women trying to compete against men, are you? No.

[A]

At all?

[B]

To my knowledge. I haven't seen it at all.

[A]

It's always the other way.

[B]

Yes. And there was a reason for that.

[A]

Oh, there is? Yeah. I don't have to wonder why that is.

[B]

You don't?

[A]

Okay. I appreciate it.

[B]

I just. It's agonizing. And to have to take two minutes to say, yes, I'm in favor of women being protected in our sport. It's just so ridiculous.

[A]

Educated enough to answer that question. You know, it's a. It's a very hard question to answer.

[B]

No, it's not.

[A]

Normally, you know, I'm all for inclusion, and I prefer. Prefer inclusion. Well, yeah. Okay, so you're.

[G]

I.

[A]

First of all, that was a WNBA coach, so I'm sure the coach is fine if a male came in to be the coach for the. For the team, right? The trans. No, the trans.

[B]

No, no, no, no, no.

[A]

We don't. That's not. That doesn't count as inclusion. Okay. All right. It's just absolutely agonizing. And, you know, Sophie Cunningham for the WNBA has been on the forefront of this only because she answered it the way it's. Everyone should answer it. Yes, I. I care about women, and I want women to compete against women. Have a nice day.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Take care. I don't want. I don't want men competing against women.

[B]

And so she's got an endless supply of crap since saying for all the

[A]

fans at the WNBA game.

[B]

Oh, man.

[A]

Got no comment from the WNBA at all. You know, her. Her main friend, the person who she's the enforcer for on the court, won't answer the question. She just says, I want to keep the game. And we talk about. I want to just focus on the game. Yeah. And Sophie has come out and said that now, too. That we got to keep the main thing. The main thing. And I agree. No problem. But you still have to have some. Some. Some more people saying, yeah, no, we're four women playing against women and men playing against men, period. The end. Have a nice day.

[B]

It's all about protecting the women. It is not anything against trans people. If. If you want to play basketball or tennis, we create a league where trans people compete against trans people.

[A]

My gosh, why do you hate trans people.

[B]

I don't.

[A]

I don't.

[B]

Not at all.

[A]

Not at all. And put them over into a corner, like I said. That'll be at the beginning of this whole thing. That's all I hear.

[B]

If you're a biological male, but you identify as a female, go ahead and play against males.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, go ahead.

[B]

Nobody's stopping you from doing that. Nope. Right. It's unbelievable. All right. Triple eight, 727 Beck. More coming up. Oh, crap.

[A]

Turns out.

[C]

When did that get there?

[A]

Common sense ain't all that common, but around here it's still standard equipment. Glenn Beck returns in a minute.

[C]

Though the headlines might change, the threats facing Israel remain. While much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families continue living with the reality of terrorism and uncertainty and recovery. Communities remain on alert. Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives, knowing the next siren could come without warning. As Christians, we're called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day providing life saving aid, food for struggling families, emergency assistance, bomb shelters and critical support for those impacted by war. Even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. Join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying for the people of Israel for protection and strength and for lasting peace. Together we can remind God's people that they are not alone. Stand with Israel in prayer today. Visit prayifcj.org that's prayifcj.org you.

Pat and Jeffy for Glenn Today, apparently in Colorado, there was some kind of eerie shape shifting orb hovering up in the sky for six hours yesterday. Six hours, six hours and six hours. Thousands of people saw it. I so I did nobody call and say, hey, you want to send, I don't know, the air force over here and see what that is?

[A]

I mean, it was there six hours hovering.

[B]

What is that?

[A]

It appears just hovering in the sky was up there quite a ways. I don't think it was a Chinese

[B]

balloon, but no, they said it changed shapes. So it's not balloonish.

[A]

It was perfectly round and transparent through binoculars. Almost like a ball of energy.

[B]

Almost like a ball of energy.

[A]

The perfectly circular blob's fixed position is what left most viewers intrigued about its mysterious nature. Photographs of the orb of surface but barely justify the unnatural physicality of the object's size, altitude and true distance.

[B]

Weird.

[A]

Really, really weird.

[B]

If it's me. I'm sending a fighter jet up there.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Check it out. Just see what it is.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Unless you already know what it is because it's from the US military. Then I guess I'm not doing anything. So maybe that's what it is.

[A]

You're not just gonna have a flyby?

[B]

No, not if I already know what it is.

[A]

Go ahead, fly. Take her, take her out. Fly her by.

[B]

Satisfy their curiosity. Fly by it.

[A]

All right. Everybody think we're looking into it.

[B]

Also, astronomers studying the moon claimed to have captured possible evidence of a technologically advanced non human civilization.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

Scientists at Ukraine's main astronomical observatory reported observing more than 20 unidentified objects moving near and across the Moon several months in a row. In 2025, some of the disc shaped objects were estimated to to be between 15 and 25 miles across.

[A]

Those don't sound like small objects.

[B]

No, that's. That's fairly sizable.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

If you're flying across the moon and it's 25 miles across your vehicle, that's.

[A]

Yeah, that's a pretty sizable object.

[B]

That's not normal.

[A]

Now we just had one of Elon's rockets crash into the moon and we haven't seen pictures of that yet still.

[B]

Right.

[A]

The. The Ukrainian laboratory hasn't released photos of Elon's crash.

[B]

No.

[A]

Into the moon which was, I don't know, left a 16 foot hole or something into the moon and. But so man, we hurt somebody. Maybe, maybe actually that was an attack. Maybe on the moon. That's why it was this errand, this errant SpaceX rocket going into the moon.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

By accident. Really wasn't an accident at all.

[B]

Maybe you're on to something. Maybe we're slamming into a 15 to 25 mile.

[A]

Yeah. And we're trying to. That's why we haven't seen pictures of it. And that's why we're trying to say we of the Moon is ours. Whoever you are, get out.

[B]

Just stumbled on to something. All right? We'll investigate it over the weekend. Let you know on Monday what the outcome was. See you then.
