GLENN: All right. So, Stu, help me out here.

The Pentagon yesterday -- okay. Now so let's just replay this.

Earlier that week, it's only Wednesday. Earlier this week, they were like, well, we can't rule out little green men.

Can't do it.

Would like to.

Would like to. But I watched Morocco for Morocco.

That was a true story, and we're probably shooting down alien spacecraft, and the aliens did travel probably close to light speed.

Highly advanced society. And they decided to come down and introduce themselves in hot air balloons.

Please!

That was Monday. Yesterday, they said, yeah. We -- we think those balloons are probably -- they were private balloons. Not tied to any spying at all.

Wait. Wait. Wait. What?

These balloons now have nothing to do with China?

They're not -- this is from the Pentagon? No foreign intelligence. What are we shooting down?

Well, they're probably private balloons. And has anybody called and said, hey. That was my balloon?

Did anybody say that?

STU: No. But we definitely should. We should definitely say the Glenn Beck Program put up a balloon. They shut it down. Now they owe us millions of dollars.

GLENN: Okay. So this is how you lose all credibility.

That Chinese balloon, just a weather balloon.

And we just found out about it. No.

You knew about it. Not since it penetrated the airspace in Alaska, like you told us last week. No, no, no.

We now know, you were monitoring it, when it left China.

So not going to give you a pass on that one.

So how many times have they lied to us on this story.

So what is it?

Remember, this story started right after Seymour Hersh said, yeah.

I've got some pretty good evidence, that it was the United States.

This administration, doing a covert op, against the laws of the United States.

And they blew up the pipeline. You should just check that out.

Balloon. Balloon. Balloon. Balloon.

And we're all talking about balloons. Okay.

Now, I would like to believe, that, you know, they actually mean anything that they say. But they don't. They don't.

Why Armstrong you blow up the balloon?

Let's just take that one. Well, because it's not a threat.

Okay. How do you know that?

Well, we just found out about -- no, you didn't.

Well, I mean, we -- we knew about it, you know, in Alaska.

No, you knew about it before.

Okay. Well, yeah.

But it's just a weather balloon.

How do you know that? Chinese told us that.

And you trust them?

CHRIS: Well, I'm not getting a lot of money from them. No, what are you talking about, and we can't shoot it down over the United States.

Because there's no place. There's not 1 inch of land, between Montana and South Carolina, that doesn't have people, riddled all over it.

GLENN: Yeah. There's lots of land.

Well, okay. How many times did they lie just about that one thing?

And the press just reports it. Last night, unfortunately, there was another shooting. This time, at Michigan State University.

Biden came out. This is why we have to have strict gun control, banning assault weapons. We don't even know what kind of gun it was. Maybe it was an assault weapon.

We don't know.

Maybe it was a John Wilkes Booth if one.

We don't know.

But here's something we do know, that the press hasn't really been up to reporting.

The guy who did the shooting, he was arrested for not having a licensed gun. You know, just a little while ago, and the Soros prosecutor decided, I'm not going to do anything about it.

Just release him. Oh.

So wait. You have laws on the book, but you do enforce them.

Okay.

All right.

STU: It's a fascinating part of the story, that like gun laws, the right wants gun laws too. We want more -- we want fewer laws before people commit crimes.

And more laws after they commit crimes. Right?

We want them punished after they commit crimes.

The left wants the opposite. They want more laws, and more punishments, before people it didn't tell crimes. And then almost no punishments after.

Which makes no sense whatsoever.

GLENN: Okay. So why would they do that?

Because it's not about the children.

If it was about the children, you would be pushing for more laws, before. And more laws after and actually going after the Soros people who are letting all these people go. Okay?

But they don't do that. This is not about guns.

This is about our country is -- is likely to collapse, and they need to make sure, they don't have 350 million guns, in the hands of 250 million people.

That's what this is all about. This is all about their power. And let me just make a case.

Well, what was the balloon story about?

I don't think we can tell you, yet.

We don't know. But it certainly wasn't about green aliens.

Even though, that's the step, Biden took on Monday.

He started a UFO commission. Something that Congress did three years ago.

We don't need another commission. We've already got one, well financed.

Why would you do that?

Because you really thought there were little green men that were invading us in hot air balloons?

I mean, there is more of a chance, that that was the wizard returning to the Omaha state fair.

Same reason -- same reason you're not hearing about this today.

Jim Biden negotiated a deal with the Saudis because with of his relationship to Joe Biden. He negotiated 140 million dollar deal.

With the Saudis.

Nobody is talking about that today. Hunter Biden, no. I didn't see anything.

What are you talking about? Of course not. Of course not.

There's what?

In fact, today, I have to get to this in a minute. The Washington Post is excusing people on the Hunter Biden laptop.

They know they have it wrong. All of these stories, they have wrong. All of them. From the beginning. And then they just keep moving the goalposts. Until finally, it's just a sieve.

And it's just leaking everywhere. And everyone knows, well, okay. That's not true.

The FBI agents, see if this is a stunning revelation to you.

FBI agents misused FISA data, to surveil a political party. I wonder which party it was.

It was -- it was a Democrat. Eh.

And here's what they said. Look, the FBI, it gets very complex.

The rules are often, quote, misunderstood.

Those rules for Pfizer, just under- --
it's not really hard.

Do you have evidence and strong suspicion of a crime, being committed with a foreign entity?

If the answer is yes, okay. Show me the evidence that you have, and I'll give you a FISA warrant.

That's it. That's it. That's how complex it is.

FBI also came out, and they said, okay.

All right. We've got -- we had to search a long, long, long time, to find out all of those names that were, you know, John Does, with Jeffrey Epstein.

And it's taken us a long time, and we're still not done with it. But we're going to release it here, probably this year. Probably this year?

What are you talking about, probably this year? They haven't released any of the names. So you know, these are names of people that work with him.

Okay. Had connections. These are not the Johns. These are the people who work with them. These are not the Johns, even though they have the little black book. We have no idea whose name is on that.

Why is that?

Why don't we know the names of the of these very powerful people.

You know, when Bill Clinton gets on to a plane, on the Lolita Express, and goes to Thailand, with Jeffrey Epstein.

I'm thinking maybe, it wasn't for food.

I'm just -- to a like Thai food?

Love Thai food. Let's just hop on the jet and go have some.

Don't think so. But don't know.

And why don't we know?

We found out this week, that one of the hosts on MSNBC, did a critical look at Hillary Clinton when she was running. She's now just come out and said, by the way, I was told, anything about Hillary Clinton had to come -- had to go all the way up to the president of NBC.

To give approval for doing it. Why?

What kind of news organization does that?

The train update. We now know that officials buried the critical health risks, until after the residents return home.

So we knew that it had vinyl chloride.

They were going to burn that up. Everybody should get out of here. It's crazy.

Then all right. It's fine. I'm going to tell you from -- well, I'll be in Columbus.

But I'm going to tell you, that part of Ohio, man, I would lick the grass, it's so healthy there.

Everybody goes back. And then they say, oh, by the way, there was a few more chemicals. One of them was one that was used in World War I, as a -- it was a killing agent.

Don't worry about that. They told them after they went back in.

Why?

Why? Why isn't Pete Buttigieg being pilloried right now.

What is the answer for this? Nobody in town is going to trust the EPA.

No one is going to trust the -- no one is going to trust anybody that says anything about the air quality.

And then what will the media do?

These people, they're just extremists. That's like those people that live near farms. They just don't believe anything.

Yeah. Why?

Because you don't tell us the truth.

Ever. Ever. And then when it finally does come out, that, oh, that's the truth. Here's the Washington Post.

Republicans in the House, are having an investigation in the collusion of the media. The Justice Department and intelligence officials, as they censored the true story of the Biden family corruption, right before 2020 election. So now the Washington Post, it just matter-of-factly says, the true story of the Biden corruption.

Really?

Because you were part of the group of people that would make sure we couldn't say that, without being banned.

Now, Glenn Kessler, the designated fact-checker at WaPo, claiming intelligence officials who lied about Russian disinformation, were very careful in their wording of that letter.

Huh. So now the Washington Post is saying, look, what they said was, it has all the earmarks of Russian disinformation. They never said it was Russian disinformation.

Really?

STU: Now, every one of these media sources took that letter, and turned it into, a straight-out statement.

GLENN: But that's not what these trusted officials were doing.

STU: None of the trusted officials who were on those shows pushed back on it. They didn't say, well, actually. You're going way too far here, by saying it's Russian disinformation. They didn't upon your back on that point.

Of course, everyone knows that. But that's the game we have to play.

GLENN: Well, apparently, it's the game that has to be played. Now, here's the good news. All of this, for the very first time, in modern history, 48 percent -- only 48 percent of American households, have satellite or cable TV.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: When I was in TV. What was that?

You know, just ten years ago, it was 96 percent of every household had cable or satellite.

It's over. It is over.

And they know it. And now, they are grasping for anything, to keep their head above water.

Warning, when that happens, this is why you always stay on the boat, if someone is drowning. Don't jump in.

They will push even friendlies down to save their own life.

But it's collapsing. Quickly.

EXCLUSIVE: Chip Roy Explains His FIERY Rejection of Spending Bill

According to the media, there’s a big fight going on between Republicans over the House’s new slimmed-down continuing resolution spending bill. Some, including President-elect Donald Trump, wanted the bill to pass. But others, like Texas Representative Chip Roy, argued that it still wasn’t ready. However, is the Republican “unity coalition” really crumbling, like the media claims? Rep. Chip Roy joins Glenn to explain what’s really going on. He argues that he IS trying to give Trump and DOGE a 100-day “runway” to fix the country. But he makes the case that, by increasing the debt ceiling by $5 trillion without agreeing on other cuts, this bill gives bad actors the ability to be an “obstacle” to Trump’s agenda further down the line. Plus, he reveals to Glenn that he believes some of these bad actors LEAKED false information about his stance to Mar-a-Lago.

GLENN:

I think we have a great opportunity today. To show you how to have a -- tough conversation, with friends, friends. Where you deeply disagree on something.

But you know that their intent is good. They know my intent is good. Or our intent is good.

And we actually have the same end goal, but we disagree on the path. And we're going to walk away friends.

Chip Roy is joining us today. And, Chip, I love you. And I always will. And I agree with your, we've got to cut spending. We have to. But Liz Wheeler is with me. And we've been talking about it all morning. It's the -- the -- the -- the system of DOGE and Trump, the call-out to the world, in saying, you've got to surrender the Capitol. You know, the bad guys are in and about to take all the money.

Surround, and tell them, come out with your hands up. And that happened. And we scored a massive win, in an entirely new way.

Ask then you stood on principle, one we both agree with.

And it failed!

And so here's -- here's what Liz and I were talking about. Here's what we want to say to you.

And then get your response.

LIZ: Hi, Congressman Roy, this is the way I see it. I want your take on it. I love you. I think you're one of the best members of Congress. I disagree with you on the process that's happening. And I think that is the difference. The process. We elected Donald Trump to be a disruptor. Because Republican members of Congress for decades have been telling they're fiscal conservatives. They want to decrease the debt SEAL. It hasn't happened.

It hasn't -- it hasn't been done. And so Donald Trump comes in with Elon Musk, and uses this DOGE process to first identify these pieces of garbage in the first 1500-page bill. And take those things to the people. We took them to members of Congress. Congress said, okay. We'll listen to you.

So that new process was very effective.

And my question to you is: Once that process was proved to be effective. Which I think is exciting and wonderful.

How do we bridge this divide, with you, to say, okay.

Let's put some faith in this new process. And trust Elon Musk and Donald Trump and the Dow Jones process, to eventually address the debt ceiling, but get this done right now?

GLENN: And not blind trust. Chip.

CHIP: So appreciate you guys. Appreciate being on the show. Particular order. I have to go through a couple of things.

GLENN: Yep.

CHIP: Number one, it's important to remember that my job and my duty is to the Constitution, to God, and the people I represent. I told them, when I came to Washington, I would not -- I would not let the credit card and the debt ceiling and the borrowing of the United States without the spending restraints necessary to offset it.

GLENN: Okay.

CHIP: Right now, all we have are promises and ideas and notions. What I know, that neither of you respectfully no, and that none of your listeners respectfully no are the people that are in the room, that I was in with yesterday. And the day before, who are recalcitrant.

And do not want to do the spending cuts that we need to do.

That I believe the president and the DOGE guys. And everybody want to do.

My job, is to force that through the meat grinder. To demand that we do our damn job. Okay?

GLENN: Okay. So hang on. Okay. So wait. Wait. You're right. You're right. You're right. Go ahead.

CHIP: Number thee, when we were going through the bill, I'm glad the bill dropped from 1,550 pages to 116 pages. Three-quarters of Twitter or X or whatever you want to call it, have been out there spreading false facts that we supported a bad bill and didn't like the better bill.

That's not true. But let's be Lear. The 1400 pages that were cut out. It's a panacea.

There were some good stuff in there. There were some bad stuff in there. There was a lot of disinformation.

There wasn't a $70,000 pay raise. There was a 3,000-dollar pay raise.

I didn't support any pay raise. I didn't support a lot of the stuff in there.

But there's a lot of misinformation. And here's the thing: The 116 pages that were left, and I opposed violently the first bill. I was leading the charge on fighting and killing the first bill.

GLENN: And I love you.

LIZ: The second bill for 116 pages. Turned off -- turned off the pay go requirement. That we slash 1.7 trillion automatically.

And added a 5 trillion that are increase.

My view was, I could not support that, without a clear understanding of what cuts we would get, in mandatory spending next year. And undo any of the Inflation Reduction Act.

The undoing of the student loans. The undoing of the crap with the food stamps.

And everything else. I yield back.

GLENN: Okay. I yield back.

Chip, you're not in a hostile room. We love you. And we agree with your end goals. It's our end goal too. We didn't make that promise that you made to the people that voted for you. So we have more wiggle room here.

But you say -- I think our big difference is, you say, I know the guys in the room.

You're right. You do. And we -- we ceded that earlier today on the show.

You are -- one of us is wrong on trust.

I don't trust any of the weasels in Washington.

But I think Donald Trump and Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have earned enough trust, to get a grace period, here for the first -- maybe the first year.

Or at least six months.

To turn the economy around, and also reduce the size of the government.

And totally flip this thing.

And I know, as somebody who is -- you know, run a company, mainly into a ground. But run a company, and have to switch it, in the middle, and totally reshuffle. That -- that actually costs money, while you're doing it, to bridge the gap.

Because you have to fill up holes while you're filling in the gap.

You don't trust the people in the room. Neither do we.

But we do trust the system that worked on Wednesday with DOGE and Donald Trump.

Where do we disagree?

Can you give them --

CHIP: We don't disagree. And yesterday morning, I was making that precise argument in a room full of conservatives and then a follow-up room with people who will call it, less conservatives.

GLENN: Republican. Yes.

CHIP: And so we were making this argument. And then someone infamously. Something leaked out of the room, somehow out to Mar-a-Lago. That I was being resistant. Because I was negotiating trying to get the agreement to achieve the objective that you just said. I was trying to get, okay. In fact, yesterday morning, I made the argument to a group of conservatives. We need to give the president runway. We need to give him his first 100 days. We need to appreciate JD, and Vivek, and all the people -- and everybody involved. For the president to achieve the objective.

But to get there. We have to make sure that the guys in the room, that are an obstacle to that, don't have the ability to block it.

Because information flow matters. And when those guys tell the president, they can't achieve X.

Then the president will not achieve X. Our job was to force and demand, guys, we need actual understanding of what the cuts will be.

And because otherwise, we're asking us to accept a 5 trillion-dollar limit in our credit card increase. In exchange for nothing!

Literally, in exchange for nothing, but -- but hope.

So our job was to force that change.

Unfortunately, while I was trying to make the argument that we needed something in order to get the votes, someone leaked that down to Mar-a-Lago, and the president reacted.

But now I have to now manage that.

GLENN: Right. I know. I know.

CHIP: They're trying to enforce change in town.

GLENN: So hang on.

We have to leave this. Because I'm going to run against the clock.

I could talk to you all day about this. You were in a meeting this morning about J.D. Vance. Can you tell us anything about that meeting?

CHIP: That meeting happened, because despite what happened yesterday, I'm trying to get this done. Last night, talking to JD, we worked to get this meeting done. We had some good progress this morning.

But there still remains people concerned about spending. That we can work out, what agreement we can reach. On what spending cuts. We can actually get next year, in exchange for giving the vote on a debt ceiling increase.

So it remains fluid. Progress was made. But we have to keep working on it.

And I left that meeting to talk to you. Soil get an update in a minute.

GLENN: Thank you for that, by the way.

I hear there is a new bill that may be coming today.

Is that the one you're talking about?

Or is this another bill that could be another nightmare?

CHIP: Despite other people leaking crap, I refused. I can't say, because it's not been decided by the speaker.

And it's not right to talk about things they're talking about in private meetings.

GLENN: Yeah, but it's -- it's this speaker. I mean, is he really the speaker anymore, Chip, really?

CHIP: We need to hear what bill we need to get forward. And I can't talk about the private meetings. But, look, I'm going to keep fighting for what I promised people that I represent.

I'm going to fight to cut spending. I am going to represent article one.

I'm going to support the president's agenda, but we've got to do that together.

GLENN: Okay.

Chip, thank you.

I think we can -- I think we agree, but I await to see what that means to you. Because we may just have to agree to disagree on this.

But I love you. And I still want you to replace Cornyn.

CHIP: The short version is, for inflation's sake, we cannot increase the debt ceiling $5 trillion without knowing what we're getting for it.

And I don't think anybody should disagree with that.

GLENN: But you don't disagree that Elon Musk and Trump and Vivek are serious about gutting the system.

CHIP: I believe that is their objective. I believe there are obstacles to that objective. And I need to know the sincerity of how we deal with those obstacles, both structural, and human. And we have to figure that out. And that's my job.

America's Favorite Villain Is Ready for Nuclear Fallout. Are You? | Glenn TV | Ep 401

In this episode of Glenn TV — a theatrical how-to guide to survive the breakdown of society after a nuclear attack, according to the new movie “Homestead” from Angel Studios. Glenn Beck interviews the movie’s star and executive producer, Neal McDonough, who plays the head of a family trying to survive as society is breaking down in a postapocalyptic world. You’ve probably seen Neal in everything from the hit TV shows “Yellowstone,” “Suits,” and “Justified” to movies like “Captain America,” “Minority Report,” and the groundbreaking mini-series “Band of Brothers.” Glenn asks Neal what it’s like to play a villain so often, how TV and movies are changing, and how he survived Hollywood as a devoted Christian and husband who refuses to do onscreen kissing scenes with any of his female co-stars. They also discuss his battle with alcoholism, what it’s like working the legends like Sylvester Stallone and Kevin Costner, and the cultural craving for Western cinema. Note: Angel Studios is a sponsor of “The Glenn Beck Program.” Get your tickets for “Homestead” at https://Angel.com/Beck.

Biden FLOODED the Government With DEI, But Trump Has ONE Way to Win

With just weeks left in office, President Biden (or whoever’s actually calling the shots) has decided to hire 1,200 DEI officials. Is this part of a plot to undermine Donald Trump’s plans and make it harder for him to rid the government of woke Deep State bureaucrats? Glenn and fellow BlazeTV host ‪@lizwheeler‬ discuss how other Democrats have recently proposed things like this, including a UK-style “shadow cabinet” that would oppose Trump. Liz also gives her advice to Trump on how to deal with these new DEI officials, who will be paid hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to focus on things like “health equity” …

GLENN: Okay. Where were we, Liz?

LIZ: The Biden administration. Although, not Biden. Because he can't tell the difference between a nickel and a dime, trying to sabotage the Trump administration.

GLENN: Yeah. So the latest on this is now Biden is hiring 1200. Biden is not doing it.

But he's hiring 1200 DEI officials, and putting them just under the appointed official. So there will be 1200.

Some of these people make almost $400,000 a year. $400,000 a year! That's your tax dollar!

Will you -- in your -- in your life, your average person, I don't know if you'll ever even -- if you'll ever even pay $400,000 in taxes?

So you could be working your whole life, for that one hire.

And he's hired 1200 of them.

And all he's trying to do is make sure the DEI positions just can't get cut.

I've got news for you.

Donald Trump is going to cut those positions.

He's going to. And it's going to get ugly.

I mean, the ACLU was all over this, saying, oh, we've got plans. We're going to -- we're going to -- this is obscene.

This is absolutely obscene. What the Democrats are trying to do. By thwarting the president.

And honestly, thwarting the will of the American people. Remember the speech that was given by I don't know, some boob from -- well, one of the Carolinas.

I don't want to besmirch the other one for electing a boob. But he was -- he was giving a speech in the well of the Senate. And he said, we need a shadow government. What?

Hold it. You mean a Deep State. Because we already have one of those. And he said. This is a quote.

One of the most obscene things I've ever heard from an elected representative. We failed to make our case. That our policies are better.

Now, in my world, growing up in America, the next sentence is: We need to sit down and talk and find out why we're out of step, with the American people.

His was, but we know we're right. So we need a shadow government, to make sure we put our policies in, anyway.

There's nothing more un-American than that.

By the way, Ted Cruz also said, he thinks there's criminal charges that could be lodged against Biden and his administration for the selling of the steel and the walls for the border.

I think so too. I think so too. He'll probably end up blanketing or pardoning everybody that has either lived by a Biden. Or a Democrat.

Worked for the administration. Everybody will get a pardon at the end.

Honestly, it's like, hey. Everybody, Oprah is here.

Look under your seats.

Because you've got a pardon. You've got a pardon. And you've got a pardon.

Ugh!

Now...

PAT: The Department of Health and Human Services on November 15th. This is posted immediately after President Trump has been reelected.

They advertised for the following position. A deputy assistant secretary for Minority Health. With a salary of up to 221 thousand dollars. This is the goal of this position.

Or this is the purpose of this position.

To, quote, promote health equity.

To promote health equity.

What does that mean?

It means racial criminalization in health care.

It means, if you are seeking, I don't know.

Think about during the pandemic. When there was limited resources. Limited beds in the emergency room.

Limited amounts of drugs and therapeutics, that people could access, in order to treat COVID when it's at its worse.

Well, now you will be screened based on the color of your skin.

That's what health equity is. Health equity is a word used to disguise the reality, that it's just -- it's socialism.

It's discrimination.

It requires, a government official to look at you, and make a decision about whether or not you are going to have access to health care that you might need, based on what you look like.

Not based on the severity of your illness. Not based on your ability to pay. Not based on your request for care. But based on the color of your skin. That's not only wrong and immoral and completely absurd, that a bureaucratic in that position would make over $221,000. That's evil. The left likes to pretend, that you're a racist. Or I'm a racist. Just for voting for Donald Trump. This is evil racism. This is the kind of stuff that we eradicated from our country.

And Biden is trying to plant the Trump administration. With these evil little minions before he leaves.

GLENN: I mean, why are we -- why are we surprised?

How many anti-slavery amendments do we have, to the Constitution.

I mean, it's amazing to me. With very few exception, after ten, most of these seem to be like, oh.

Yeah. Okay.

You're so stupid, you don't understand.

Slaves need to be free. Okay.

Then the next amendment is like, okay. All right.

Let me limp up to explain this once more.

That means, they're Americans, and can vote!

How many amendments are -- are just one after another, especially on slavery.

And, by the way, who was it that didn't understand that slaves should be freed? The Democratic Party.

It -- I swear to you, these amendments are just, God, we didn't think you would be this stupid.

It's already covered!

But let's lay it out clearly, for you.

You cannot discriminate by color! By race! By religion.

We thought that had already been covered, but apparently, not.

LIZ: What I would do if I were the Trump transition team. This is obviously a deliberate effort by the Biden administration. Because within the first ten days after the election, 33 of these jobs were posted on government websites.

So this was -- they were like, okay. Trump is coming in. Let's start ceding the deep state with these races. What I would do if I were Trump transition is I would say, we take racial equality, very seriously. We take civil rights very seriously.

In the administration, of the 47th president of the United States, and anybody who engages, especially a government official who engages in racial discrimination will be prosecuted. And prevent these people from even accepting these jobs. Because they will be threatened with legal action if they do.

GLENN: You can make a legal case. A solid, legal case, that that is exactly right. And that's what should be done.

They would be doing that to us, if we were -- if we were discriminating on race. If we were like, you know what, we're only going to hire white people.

We would go to jail.

Oh, you know what. We're just going to shuffle the deck here.

We're going to look at everybody.

But we lean towards white people.

Did you have Wheaties for breakfast?

If you had Wheaties as a childhood, you're in a different category. Okay?

I mean, we would go to jail. We would be shut down.

It's the same thing.

But don't expect the Democrats to get it.

Did you see the new -- or the DNC chair front runner?

The one they're thinking should be the head of the DNC?

He said, the problem with the election is, the convention should have featured pro-Hamas activists.

LIZ: I totally agree. That absolutely should have --
GLENN: At least they would have been honest.
LIZ: Think about how many Democrat voters, and really prominent people too.

I'm talking about Joe Rogan. I'm talking about Elon Musk. I'm talking about RFK Jr. These were fairly hard-core Democrats, who not only converted to being like, okay. We'll tolerate a Republican. Because it's not Joe Biden.

It's not Kamala Harris.

These people are the biggest supporters of President Trump right now, because of that kind of garbage. So DNC, if you are going to be radical, please be honest and tell us.

Thank you. It's just ushering new Republican voters right into our arms.

GLENN: I respect you, more than I respect people like Mike Johnson.

Mike Johnson doesn't tell me what -- he doesn't tell me what he really is.

What he really believes.

He tells me what I want to hear. I don't believe it. Then he's elected. Then he gets in.

And then he rapes you.

You know, I have much more respect for -- for people who are like, yeah. I'm pro-Hamas.

And you should elect me.

Well, I don't think I'm going to do it.

But thank you for telling me who you really are.

LIZ: Yeah. Great. Let's take all of the Democrat members of Congress. And let's Jamaal Bowman them, let's Cori Bush them.

Because as soon as they were honest about being pro-Hamas, voters were like, actually, we're good.

GLENN: Yep. Yep.

By the way, Hochul has come out. And she has now tried to stir up support to end the electoral college.

Because no offense, Wyoming, according to her words, New York voted for Kamala Harris.

You know, it is so dishonest. And this would -- this would have no space, if -- if we were actually teaching you students, what the electoral college is for.

You want to talk about fairness. Here's fairness: Should New York City dictate what all of New York does?

No!

They have representation. Of all the small towns.

All the farming towns.

Everything else.

New York City, should not be the one that tells everyone else, exactly how to live!

I think there should be electoral colleges in states now.

Because the cities are just devouring, all of the communities outside of those mega cities.

The electoral college is to make sure, that New York, California, and let me say, Texas, doesn't run over all of the other states!

And force how they're living in those cities, and those big states. In Wyoming!

Or Idaho!

Or Alabama!

Yeah. I don't have to live like you do in New York City.

I don't want to live like you do in New York City.

And we have completely different values than you do.

We should have a say, and an even, equal seat at the table.

That's why we have the electoral college. And we have the popular vote.

So you can see. And it's usually pretty close.

This time, however, Hochul, you lost the popular vote!

So you don't really have a case here, on the electoral college.

But you don't have a case.

If you're an American, you don't have a case on the electoral college anyway.

LIZ: Wait a second. Have we war gamed the scenario that you just proposed.

If there was an electoral college on the state level in California or on the state level in New York, what would the -- have we actually looked at a map here. If anybody has done this. Tag me on social media.

Because I am fascinated by this idea. I've not thought of this before. But I -- would we actually swing those states Republicans, if there was a state level?

STU: I bet we would. I bet we would.

You know, every time. Look at Wyoming.

Jackson Hole now controls Wyoming. Just controls it.

Who is -- who is so close to controlling Texas?

All the big cities.

You know, you don't have a chance. When these cities grow so large, they tip everything.

That's why we have an electoral college.

And it didn't used to be this way.

But our cities are becoming mega cities.

Almost states in and among themselves.

You -- you have to balance. Otherwise, the farmer and everybody else, that makes your life possible, in a city, gets screwed.

GLENN: And also think about cheating for a second. If you have a popular vote across the whole country, versus an electoral college system, it's a lot easier to impact the outcome of the entire presidential election because you can have one county somewhere with corrupt election officials.

And if they cheat by 10,000 votes, that could change the outcome of the election.

But if you're an electoral college, it doesn't necessarily.
