Democrats ADMIT they'll do ANYTHING to take your guns

Glenn and Stu debunk the Left's latest gun lies after two Democratic congressmen admitted that they don't care what's standing in their way, whether it's the Constitution or the Supreme Court: They WILL take AR-15s away from Americans. And President Biden is right there with them, despite what he says about the "respect" he gives to "lawful gun owners." But Glenn has a feeling they won't stop at so-called "assault rifles"...

GLENN: Okay. So let me just go through a few of the clips, before we get to the president's speech. Let's play cut three here. This is a -- this is -- this is a Democrat in Congress. I'm sorry. It's cut five.

David -- is it Cicilline, from Rhode Island. Listen to this.

VOICE: I don't think there's a single incident. And maybe there's one. But I've not found one. Of an assailant using an assault weapon that was stopped by a person with a gun. So this was a --

GLENN: Okay. Stop. Stop. Never been stopped!

All of them stopped, with a person with a gun.

STU: Every single one of them.

GLENN: Every single one. What are they doing Jiu-Jitsu?

STU: Well, there was that one that was stopped with the slingshot.

GLENN: Yeah. Remember that? Goliath came out with his AR?

STU: Yeah. The question is only, do you want the people with the gun to be there before the shooting starts, or after it begins? That is the only question here.

GLENN: By the way, this congressman should know. Now he's looked. He's looked very hard. And you have to go way, way back, to last Saturday. To find a guy who walked into a party with 40 people. He had an assault rifle. He wounds two police officers. And takes them out of commission. And a woman reaches into her purse, pulls out her pistol, and shoots the guy.

There's one. Now, that was really hard to find. Because, well, you know, a Democratic congressman wouldn't be reading the news from any source that would actually cover that. That just happened Saturday, one woman, private citizen, handgun, saved 40 people.

And here is -- here's the Congressman, the great congressman again. From Rhode Island. Who said this.

VOICE: So spare me the bull shit about constitutional rights. No, I will not yield. And I will not yield for my entire five minutes, so don't ask again.

STU: Oh, the passion. The total and authentic and genuine passion from these people is just incredible.

GLENN: Yeah. Well, let me show you some more. I mean, unbelievable passion. So passionate, that he had to read it. Here is Representative Jones on guns, cut 14.

VOICE: Enough of your thoughts and prayers, enough. Enough.

STU: Enough. See, I'm mad. That's why I'm reading this.

VOICE: You will not stop us from advancing the Protecting (talking over) Act today.

GLENN: Now, listen to this.

VOICE: You will not stop us from passing it in the House next week, and you will not stop us there. If the filibuster obstructs us, we will abolish it. If the Supreme Court objects, we will expand it. And we will not rest until we have taken weapons of war out of circulation in our communities. Each and every day, we will do whatever it takes to end gun violence. Whatever it takes. What we will do, is not fail the children of this country, the way that you have failed us.

GLENN: Okay. This is amazing. This is amazing.

We will do whatever we have to do, to take out guns, these guns, from circulation in our community. So get rid of the guns.

STU: Uh-huh. Not a purchase ban. It's removing them from circulation in the community.

GLENN: No. Removing them. And they will do anything. If there's a constitutional limit, we disregard it. If you try to stop us legitimately through the votes in Congress, or the Senate, we will override it. And we will abolish the filibuster.

STU: You left out the part of the script where he bangs his fist on the table there.

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

STU: Fist table. I'm sorry.

GLENN: And if the Supreme Court says it's unconstitutional to do that, we'll wipe them out. Wow. The ends justify the means. It's not just for radicals anymore. It's for everyone! Because seemingly, everyone in the Democratic Party is a radical.

So what did the very, very astute, together, wide awake president say in his speech last night?

Well, he came out into the east wing. And he walked down the red carpet that was all lined with candles. Now, I don't know if behind the flag, his lovely wife Jill was taking a bath. Surrounded by the candles. And rose petals in the water. It could be.

But it was a very beautiful and appealing image there, with the president by candlelight to talk to us about guns. And here he is. Cut ten.

VOICE: For God's sake, how much more carnage are we willing to accept? How many more innocent American lives are we --

GLENN: Okay. Hang on. I say 150.

STU: I would say 153. We're in the same ballpark. By the way, that's entirely the standard of this debate. Which is, we are just waiting for the exact amount of bodies. Until we adopt all of their policies.

GLENN: Right. What is it going to take for us to intellectually abandon the principle of the Constitution? What's it going to take?

STU: Right. It's not that we disagree or think you can solve in other ways, or think the Constitution is important.

It's that we haven't seen a high enough stack of bodies yet for us to change our mind.

GLENN: Yeah. And we don't really care. As long as they're killing children, Republicans don't care.

STU: Yeah, we won't care.

Here's the thing, Glenn.

Every time that you hear them say, we need to do something. Translate that to, we need to do exactly what we want. We have passed tons of laws since Sandy Hook. Yet they always say, we have done nothing. Because we haven't done the thing we want us to do. Federal-based legislation that takes people's guns away. Because they haven't done that, we haven't done anything.

Well, we have done tons of things. States have passed laws all over the country. Both on the pro-gun control side of this argument, and the pro-Second Amendment side when it comes to things like making schools more safe, as far as security and stuff. All that stuff has been passed all over the country. We've done tons of stuff, since these actions have gone on. We just haven't --

GLENN: Why are you avoiding the question? Just give me the number. Dear God.

STU: Enough is enough. Enough!

GLENN: Okay. Give me the numbers. 153.

STU: 153.

GLENN: 153. That's the number from Stu. Remember, mine is 150. Once we see another 150. Then I will abandon all of my principles.

Okay. Next cut please. Here's what he wants to do.

BIDEN: Allows the gun sale to go through after three business days, even if the background check hasn't been completed.

GLENN: Stop. Stop. Why is that? Why does a background check, even if it's not completed after three days, why do they abandon that and give you your license? Why is that? That seems crazy, right?

No. No, it doesn't. When you understand why. A federal background check should take about 20 minutes. When Clinton was in office, it strangely took days. Days. And days and days and days and days. Sometimes weeks to get it done. When Obama was in office, what happened? Oh, my gosh. The -- the computers were all just jammed in Washington. They had outages. And it would take so long. We're trying. We're trying super hard. But we've got dial-up modems here. And we just can't do that background check.

STU: And I thought that was a little suspicious. Though, when you saw the way they launched Obamacare and the website. Maybe it was real. Maybe they just were that bad at the computer.

GLENN: Well, no. Because when Bush was in office, you could get it in 20 minutes. When Trump was in office, you could get it in 20 minutes. So what is this law that says, three days. And if you don't finish the background check, they get the license.

That is to ensure that the federal government doesn't do what states like New York does. Drag it out for months. Make it impossible.

That's why that's there. That's there to keep the federal government honest. It doesn't take more than 20 minutes.

Okay. Next, please.

BIDEN: For so many of you at home, I want to be very clear.

GLENN: Okay.

BIDEN: This is not about taking away anyone's guns.

GLENN: What?

BIDEN: It's not about vilifying gun owners.

GLENN: Gun owners.

BIDEN: In fact, we believe we should be treating responsible gun owners as an example of how every gun owner should behave.

GLENN: Okay.

STU: What about responsible gun owners?

GLENN: Don't walk while chewing --

BIDEN: I respect culture and tradition of lawful gun owners.

GLENN: Okay. Stop. Stop. No, you don't. No, you don't.

Lawful gun owners aren't killing people. Lawful gun owners are saving people's lives. I don't get the same respect. You -- you think you're treating me and my friends, who own guns, and are completely responsible. You think you're treating me with respect?

By telling me things like, you know, they just let these people -- they get them without even a background check.

You think you're treating us with respect by saying, you know, these guns blowholes into people. And you can't even recognize them. The DNA. Oh, you have to use DNA to be able to identify the bodies. Because AR-15s, which is now every semiautomatic weapon, they just -- they blow the faces off. People explode. And so you need to have a DNA test done, to identify the children.

Wow! Have we gotten that quick with DNA testing? Because the victims. You know, as soon as the parents are notified. And that usually takes, well, shorter than it takes Democratic states to count the votes on Election Day.

STU: People have absolutely no idea what they're talking about. And they say it with exclamation points next to it, to make it sound like they do.

GLENN: They are morons. Most of them are morons. There are those like Joe Biden, that know exactly what he's doing. There are those who are running the Democratic Party right now that know exactly -- they know what the truth is.

But they will tell you, that when we banned assault weapons, when we banned them. Well, I'll tell you, we saw the murder rate go down. No, we didn't. No, we didn't. Every study. Including the studies from the federal government show no difference was made. None.

You know, in Chicago, they have rounded up I think, what was it? 4,000 weapons. Here in the last year or two.

How many of them are legally owned? I would like to know. It just says, the number of weapons that have been used and confiscated because of shootings and everything else.

Why don't they tell us, were those legal or illegal guns?

Because that's where -- if those are legal, responsible gun owners. If they're all members of the NRA. And they've gone through all the NRA testing, well, then I'm wrong. But you're treating me, Joe, as if I'm the one with the illegal gun that is shooting kids and innocent people in Chicago or a school.

STU: We're going through all this stuff for the special tonight on Stu Does America. To debunk it.

GLENN: Really, really good special tonight. You need to see it.

STU: All the gun myths. One of the studies we came across, they looked at criminals. People who were arrested and in prison. And gun-related offenses. What they found was 2 percent of them had gone through retail sources. But 2 percent of the criminals, they got their guns from retail sources.

GLENN: So they went to a -- they went to a gun show?

STU: No. I bought a gun at a gun show. It seemed pretty retail to me.

GLENN: So I thought that -- oh, it must be they got it from a grandfather.

STU: No. Not a lot of borrowing from grandpa going on in the criminal world today. It's almost as if they don't care about your background checks. It's weird. But keep the border open. You can ban all these weapons. And pass all these new laws. But keep the Mexican/American border wide open and see what happens with guns.

GLENN: Yeah. Because drug cartel. They're not involved in drug smuggling. They're not involved in human smuggling. And they certainly -- they stay away from firearms. Okay? Especially those illegal ones.

‘STUNNING’ statistics PROVE the church may be in DANGER

A recent report found that only 37 PERCENT of Christian pastors bring a ‘Biblical worldview’ with them to the pulpits. And, for Catholic priests, the numbers are even worse. Glenn breaks down these ‘STUNNING’ statistics which prove that the Christian church in America may be in BIG danger…

GLENN: By the way, there's a couple of things hear. Only half of evangelical pastors hold a Biblical worldview.

Now, this might be a little shocking for people who go to church. A study released Tuesday builds on an other report from American World View inventory 2022, which shows that 37 percent of Christian pastors bring a Biblical worldview with them, to the pulpits.

Now, a Biblical worldview is -- do you -- does every person have a purpose and a calling is this

Do you have a purpose for being here? And can God call you to something? I'm asking you, Stu.

STU: Why are you asking me, without the echo in your voice?

GLENN: Because I don't want you to feel damned, immediately.

STU: Oh, okay.

GLENN: So do you feel the purpose in calling?

STU: Sure.

GLENN: Family and value of life. Those come from God.

STU: Yes.

GLENN: Do you believe in God?

STU: This is a tough one. After the previous two, but yes.

GLENN: Do you believe in creation? I know this is weird. Creation and history?

STU: I believe in history. I just believe in --

GLENN: I believe in creation. Do you? I mean, intelligent design. I don't know how he creates.

STU: Yeah. I don't find that question to be as riveting as some do. I don't really care how he did it, honestly. But it's on him.

GLENN: It's like, oh, we got you there. So you're saying, dinosaurs aren't real?

STU: Yeah. I don't really -- I don't know all the details to it. It wasn't there. I will say, I don't know how an i Phone works exactly. But I'm glad the texts go through.

GLENN: But I don't believe in Steve Jobs. He never existed. That just, all of a sudden appeared on a beach somewhere.

STU: Right.

GLENN: Let's see. Do you believe in sin? Salvation and relationship with God?

Do you believe in behavior and relationships, the Bible, and its truth and morals?

STU: I think.

GLENN: Yeah. I think those are all pretty easy. Only 37 percent of pastors. Believe in that.

STU: Oh.

GLENN: I mean, you might want to put that on the front sign. You know what I mean?

Like, hey, come in. Try our doughnuts. And we don't really believe what you think we believe.

STU: Well, this happened to you. Right? When you were doing your church tour. Back in the day.

GLENN: Oh, back in the day. We went to every church. Every religion. Because my wife wouldn't marry me without a common religion.

And I'm like. I love God and everything. But religion, I --

STU: This is a long time ago. This was not you, at the time though.

You were not. This church tour happened, in what? I don't remember what year it was.

GLENN: '99.

STU: Wow, it was a long time ago.

GLENN: A long time ago.

STU: You were finding your way. Mainly because your wife wouldn't marry you if -- you're forced into it.

GLENN: Right. I was forced into it. And she didn't believe in premarital sex either. And I'm like, okay. Chickaboo. I said, what is it going to take? And she said, God. Here I am. I'm practically a god, look at me. No.

STU: A Greek god.

GLENN: A Greek god. She vomited. And then I went to church. So we tried everything. I mean, we -- I really liked a Jewish synagogue we went to. Except you couldn't eat a lot of good things that I liked. And I don't speak a word of Hebrew. But it was in and out on Saturday, and it was pretty good. I since learned there was more than that.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: But I went to this church. And it was. What do they call those churches? Congregational, right? The white churches on the greens.

Yeah. I think it's congregational churches. And they're non-denominational. And so I'm sitting there in the pew. And Tania and I were listening.

It's okay. It's church. And during it the sermon. The pastor said, now, you all know that I don't believe in God. But if there is a God, we should serve him.

And I'm like, hey, that doesn't make any sense at all. Okay?
(laughter)

GLENN: And that should be on the front door, someplace. Before you go and sit down, you should just know, our pastor does not believe in God. But if there is a God, maybe we should serve him.
(laughter)
You know, good safety tip there. So back in just a minute. I'm going to give you a reason on why I'm telling you this latest survey. It's crazy. Finnegan is a 12-year-old Husky Lab. And Daniel not his owner. That would be wrong.

His adult friend. He said Finnegan used to sleep all the time. We had to spike his food every day with cheese and ham, et cetera. And even then, he wouldn't eat most of his food. Sometimes for days. I was skeptical about ordering Ruff Greens. But I gave it a try. In a month or so, Finnegan was incredibly active, and he runs and plays with other dogs. He even chases rabbits and squirrels again. I wish I would have discovered this for him, long ago.

Well, get it when you can, you know. Doing the best you can, to raise a health dog. Ruff Greens can help you. It's not a dog food. It's vitamins and minerals. And all the other things that your dog needs to live a healthy life. And they love it. And you put it on there. Now, not all dogs love it, I'm sure. So they want to give you a free bag, to make sure that your dog loves it, as much as my dog Uno. And Daniel's dog Finnegan. They'll eat it, man. You just watch over them. They change. It is really great to see. It's Ruff Greens. RuffGreens.com/Beck. RuffGreens.com/Beck.

GLENN: On only 30 percent of Christian pastors believe and have a Biblical worldview. I mean, if you're not talking about sin and, you know, how to be a better Christ-like person. And how do you -- 37. What are they teaching?

STU: Those are the questions. The specific questions asked. Certainly, there are differences among denominations. And various questions.

But these are pretty basic points.

GLENN: Are these eight categories. Eight categories. Purpose and calling. Family and value of life.

God, creation and history. Faith practices. Sin, salvation, and relationship with God. Human character. And nature. Lifestyle. Behavior and relationships.

Oh, and the Bible. Truth and morals.

STU: Yeah. I know there are obviously disagreements on some of the intricate matters of faith between denominations and pastors.

GLENN: Sure. But 37 percent.

STU: The only thing I would ask, who is the defining Biblical worldview there? And I would assume --

GLENN: The bible.

STU: If you're assuming broad categories like that, that's a stunning number.

GLENN: Stunning. Stunning number.

STU: To the point of, how is it possible?

GLENN: So 57 percent of pastors leading non-denominational and independent churches, held a Biblical worldview, a nationwide study in February. Conducted in February. Nondenominational and independent churches were more likely to subscribe to a Biblical worldview than evangelical churches. Perhaps most surprisingly 48 -- 48 percent of pastors of Baptist churches, widely viewed as the most enthusiastic about embracing the Bible. Held a Biblical worldview, 48 percent.

Pastors of Southern Baptist churches by contrast were far more likely. 78 percent, to have Biblical beliefs. The traditional black Protestant churches and Catholic priests, I'm sorry. Just -- wow. I just had to read this again.

Traditional black Protestant churches and Catholic priests, were found least likely to hold a Biblical view. With the incidence of Biblical worldview, measured in the single dingles. Black churches. 9 percent of pastors and Catholic priests. 6 percent.

STU: I feel like you ask atheists, if you have a Biblical worldview. You would have higher than 9 percent.

GLENN: I think I could give it to Penn Jillette. And he would be like, you know.

STU: At 14 percent. I'm at 14 percent.

GLENN: Yeah. That's crazy. In churches with an average of 100 or fewer within attending weekly services. 41 percent of the pastors had a Biblical worldview. Larger fellowships with 100 to 250 adults fared better, with 45 percent.

However, 14 percent of pastors leading mid-sized churches, between 250 and 600 people. 14 percent.

And 15 percent of pastors with congregations of more than 600 adults. That's crazy.

STU: Yeah. That's hard to understand how that's possible. Why would you be involved in this business, right?

I hate to call it a business. It's your life's work. It's your career. Right?

GLENN: It's like. You know what it means? It's my uncle who is the head of safety at Boeing for years, and he would never fly. He would never get on an airplane. And he would be like, uncle Dave, what is that? And he's like, if you fly, you have to fly a Boeing.

STU: If they can care about it a little.

GLENN: It is my uncle, who is the head of safety at bowing for years. Okay.

STU: Okay.

GLENN: And he would never fly. He would never get on an airplane.

STU: Right.

GLENN: And you would be like, uncle Dave. I don't. What is that? And he's like, if you fly, you have to fly a Boeing. But there's no reason, logically that that thing should be able to take off and fly. I don't know if you're the best for safety, you know.

I think that's -- my uncle Dave should have been a priest maybe.

Glenn reads leftists’ CLUELESS reactions to SCOTUS decision

The far-left proved once again it’s members care very little about ‘peace.’ In fact, some reactions from leftist, blue checkmarks on Twitter show just how ANGRY they can be…especially when it comes to the Supreme Court preserving the Constitution and returning rights to the STATES. Glenn reads several of their reactions to SCOTUS' recent decision that further protects the Second Amendment...

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

GLENN: Boy, I just wanted to go through some of the blue checkmark responses from yesterday. Because, gee. I just -- I just don't -- I just don't know what else to say. They were so right on target. Now, that's -- that's a joke. I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it actually target. You know, like Sarah Palin actually meant it. Alicia Sultan. Or Ashia, or whatever her name is. She says, God forbid. Listen, you're listening right now to a guy who is in the Radio Hall of Fame. I am so good at what I do. I don't even need to know how to pronounce names. I don't have to. They were like, this guy is like a radio god.

Yeah, but have you heard him?
Yeah, put him in the Hall of Fame.
Anyway, she said, God forbid, someone you love gets killed by gun violence. I second that. Second Amendment fetishizing will never bring that back, or a make that loss easier to bear. Yeah. I agree with that. I mean, hang on. Let me just take the ball out of my mouth here. I have this fetish thing with the Second Amendment. It is hot. Too many people believe that unfettered access to guns will never hurt someone they love, until it happens. Okay. I don't know what your point is really here. Marion Williams says. People will die because of this. And to be very clear, now, listen to this argument.
To be very clear. They're not doing this to protect the Second Amendment. They're doing it to protect the primacy of property rights.
Well, gosh, that's a good reason to do it too, I guess. Huh. I didn't even think of the property right part. But thanks for pointing that out, Marion. Neil Cattial says, it's going to be very weird if the Supreme Court ends a constitutional right to obtain an abortion next week. Saying it should be left to the states to decide, right after it imposed a constitutional right to conceal and carry firearms. Saying, it cannot be left to the states to decide.
Neil, here's what you're missing, dude.One is actually in the Constitution. It's called the Second Amendment. That tells the federal government, and the states exactly what they can and cannot do. What government cannot do. There is no right to abortion. I -- show it to me. Show it to me. When you can show it to me, I will change my argument. That, when it's not in -- I'll talk slowly for you, Neil.
When it's not in the Constitution, then, there's this part of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It's -- it's -- just look for the number ten. Okay? And that says anything that's not specifically in the Constitution. That goes then to the states. Yeah. Look at you. You're going to read something.
Jill Flipuffock says -- says the kind of people who desperately want to carry concealed weapons in public, is based on a generalized interest in self-defense are precisely the kind of paranoid, insecure, violence, fetishizing people, who should not be able to carry a concealed weapon in public. Okay. So let me get this right.
If you want to carry one, you're the kind that shouldn't carry one. So, in other words, when -- this is right. Jill, my gosh, my whole world is changing. Thank you for this. Now I understand when Martin Luther King went in and said to the state officials, hey. I need to have a concealed carry permit. He's exactly the kind of guy, you Democrats didn't want to carry a gun.
Yes! Jill, thank you for that enlightenment. David Hogged says, you're entitled to your opinion. But not your own facts. And like your own facts, you're not entitled to your own history. That's exactly what the Supreme Court decision is. It's a reversal of 200 years of jurisprudence that will get Americans killed. David, David
Have you read a book? Come on. Do you know anything at all -- name three founders. Can you do it? Right now, think. Go. Can't do it, David. 200 years.
Our -- the only times -- the only times in our history, and you wouldn't know this. Because you bury all the left. Buries the Democratic history.
The only time that we have any kind of history, where we're taking guns away from people, is when the government is afraid of those people. When the government gets really, really racist. Okay? That's why the Indians, yeah. That's why they're living on reservations now. Because we took away their guns. Yeah. Yeah.
That's why after the Civil War. And before the Civil War, slaves could not have guns. Why?
Because they might defend themselves. And then, after they were freed, oh, my gosh, the Democrats freaked out. Those freed slaves, will have a way to protect themselves. And they got it done through all kinds of laws, kind of like what you're doing now.
Thank you, David for writing in. You're special. March for Our Lives. Blue checkmark said yesterday.
The court's decision is dangerous. And deadly. The unfairly nominated blatantly partisan justices put the Second Amendment over our lives. No. I -- I -- may I quote the Princess Bride? I do not think those words mean what you think they mean. Okay?
Second Amendment is there, to protect our lives. To protect our property. And to protect our freedom.
I just want to throw that one out. The blood of American people who die from needless gun violence will be on their corrupt hands.
Okay. Wahajit Ali (phonetic) said, let's have a bunch of black, brown, and Muslim folks carry large guns in predominantly white neighborhoods.
I know the Second Amendment advocates will say that's great and encourage it. Because American history proves otherwise. We might get gun control. But we would also get a lot of chalk outlines.(laughter)Mr. Ali, you are so funny.
See, what you fail to recognize is that all of the people that you say are racist, aren't racist.
There are racists in this country, a lot of them seem to come from the left. You know, like the socialist Klan members. Or the socialist Nazi members. You see what they have both in common?
Yeah. Democratic Party. Anyway, Mr. Alley, if someone wants to carry a gun. And they're a Muslim. I have absolutely no problem. You're brown, you're pink, you're polka dot. You have covid and you're not wearing a mask. Or you don't have covid, and you're wearing 20 masks. And you want to carry a gun. I'm totally fine with that. Now, if you get a bunch of people. And, again, I don't care what color they are. Marching down my neighborhood, with large guns. Yeah. I am going to call the police because that's unusual.
What are you doing? We're just marching with our guns. Why in my neighborhood at night?
None of your business. Does Kavanaugh live around here? See, there's a difference. There's a difference. Right-wingers can freak out about nullification or packing or whatever.
No one cares. You broke all the norms of decency, democracy, and fairness. Oh, my gosh. Oh, wait. Wait.
This is from David Atkins. He has a great solution. At the end of the day, California and New York are not going to let Wyoming and Idaho tell us how we have to live in a Mad Max gun climate hell.
Oh, my gosh. David, let's break some bread, baby. Let's come together. Yeah. All right. Let me do my best Marianne Williamson.
Yeah. Yeah. Because we can come together. What you just said is the point of the Tenth Amendment. California and New York, I don't want to live like them.
You don't want to live like us. So let's not. Let's not. However, there are ten big things. And I've heard they've added to these. But there are ten big things, that no government in the United States of America, can do. Now, you want to change that, let's change it. Because what's so crazy, is there's this thing called the amendment process. You want to change the Constitution, you don't -- what -- all norms of decency. Democracy and fairness. You don't break those.
You want to change those amendments. You can do it. All you have to do is go through the amendment process. And then if you say, everybody has to have a pig on their lap. You get the states to vote for that. Put it on the amendment. You have it. Now, probably there would be another amendment that comes later. That says, hey, the big in the lap thing is really, really, stupid, and I think America lost its mind temporarily. So we're going to scratch that one out. From here on out, no. Absolute must have a pig on your lap kind of loss. Okay?
But both of those would be done through the amendment process. That would be doing it the decent way, the fair way, and the Democratic way. But David, you are cute. When you think, you're cute. Tristan Schnell writes in, when American service members die oversees, their caskets are brought to Dover Air Force base to be displayed and mourned. No, they're not displayed. I don't know if you've noticed this. But we try not to display the dead. But when Americans die because of gun violence, their caskets should be brought to the steps of the Supreme Court. So the justices can see what they've done. Yeah.
Tristan, I like that. Why don't we take every baby that's been aborted, and put them in a bucket. I mean, we're going to need a big bucket. Because there's millions of those.
And let's dump them, on the front steps of the Supreme Court. So they can see what they've done. Wow!
I got to thank all the blue checkmarks. Because you've really turned me around.

Why the Fed’s ‘MATH PROBLEM’ may result in MORE inflation

Yes, it’s possible for our economy to suffer from extremely high inflation while certain goods, products, and services experience DEFLATION as well, Carol Roth — a financial expert and author of ‘The War On Small Business’ — tells Glenn. The Fed actually is TRYING to deflate the economy, Roth explains. But while they’re saying one thing, the Fed’s current policy shows the exact opposite. And that ‘math problem,’ Roth says, is what could cause our economy to experience even more, ‘prolonged’ inflation. It’s a ‘dire situation,’ and there seems to be ZERO leadership willing to fix it…

GLENN: Is it not possible to have super high inflation, on some products. And super low deflation. Prices that are -- that are crazy.

Because they -- nobody is buying them, in other categories. Is that possible to have both of those?

CAROL: Yeah. I think that the best analogy for that would be kind of the '70s. And something that looks for stagflation. Where the economy stagnates. And it stagnates, like you said, because all the money has been sucked up in a couple of categories. And there really is a lot to go around in other places. There's not a lot of investments being made, and what not. But we still end up having high inflation. And we are certainly, a lot of people feel like we're in that sort of stagflation, you know, arena, right now. And it can continue on the trajectory. But you have to remember in terms of deflation. I mean, that's what the Federal Reserve is trying to do. They are actively trying to deflate, you know, not just the bubbles and assets, but they're trying to deflate spending, to cool off the economy. That's why they're shutting off their balance sheets. That's why they're raising their interest rates. It's meant to cool off demand. And that's the math problem that I keep talking about. They keep saying, oh, the consumer. And businesses are going to save us from a recession. But at the same time, the policy is meant to do the exact opposite. The policy is meant to make it, so that people aren't able to spend in the same way. So those two objectives are at odds with each other. And so I do think, that we could end up in this prolonged period, like you said, where the inflation hasn't quite gotten under control. Especially since we have so many supply demand imbalances in our economy. We have a labor imbalance. We have a food imbalance. We have an energy imbalance. And we have a commodity imbalance. And that's not going to it be solved by any monetary policy. That requires real action. And we don't have leadership, that's willing to lead or frankly do anything.

GLENN: So we have -- as I see it, we're looking at a situation. Again, I'm going back. And please, correct me where my thinking is off. But I'm going back to the Great Depression. So people were afraid. They held on to their money. They spent what they had to, and what they could afford. But nothing else.

That caused the labor market to shoot out of control. To -- to about 25 percent unemployment. Because the factories were closing down. Because no one was buying anything, from the factories. Which then, in turn, made FDR say, we're going to build the Hoover damn, to give people jobs. But it was all the government money, which would have just caused more inflation, if I'm not mistaken. Had it not been for the -- and I hate to say it this way. But the saving grace of the Second World War. Right? Were we in a death spiral? I mean, the war was definitely a different kind of reset. And I think a lot of the logic that you're talking about makes sense. If consumer sentiment is really important. And it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, if people don't feel confident, they don't go out and spend. They're worried about their inflation. And being able to feed their family. And get to work. They aren't going to spend -- I think there are a couple of things that we have that are different. And it's not necessarily better for the average American. So I just want to be clear. That I'm on your side, and I'm not saying that it's better.

But because of this huge supply and demand imbalance. We have two jobs available for every person looking. The likelihood is that that probably contracts to be, you know, a better match, than having massive unemployment just because of that scenario is going on. And we also have a whole slew of Americans, who are doing -- you know, have done very well. They have been the beneficiaries of this giant wealth transfer from Main Street to Wall Street. So I think we're going to have a lot of, you know, different outcomes. You know, that inadequately, that's been driven by government policy. And that's never a good thing. Because, you know, the social unrest that comes with it. And rightfully so. Because, you know, these policies have really put the middle class. The working class. And in some cases, the lower class, at risk, to the benefit of the people on the inside. And so the numbers on average, may not show how dire the situation is. And so they'll be able to spend. And say, oh, everything is great. And the consumer is doing well, when people are really struggling. And, you know, that's going to be when we continue to just be furious. And, you know, demand something be done about that.

GLENN: Carol, thank you so much for everything that you do.
