The far-left’s ABSURD attempt to stop climate change in CA

Did you hear that we’re now fighting a climate change EMERGENCY? And for the far-left, that means it’s all hands on deck to save the planet…even if it means entrenching your rights (or now, entrenching onto your LAND). In this clip, Glenn details the latest, ABSURD step California officials are taking to control water — EVEN if it’s water on your own property. Is this even legal?!

STU: I've heard, it was warm while I was gone. And that's an international crisis.

GLENN: It is warm. Oh. From your lips to somebody's ear. Because that is -- that's exactly right. That's exactly right. It is a climate emergency. And while the president hasn't declared it yet, we all feel it's coming, you know what I mean? It's kind of like, climate is not in a transition. The economy is in not in a transition. But the climate is in an emergency.

STU: Right. This is not a transitory warning of the planet. As we may have heard about inflation. This one will stay here forever.

GLENN: Forever.

STU: I heard this morning, these temperatures will last until at least the end of the century. Which surprised me. I honestly predicted a winter coming soon. No. They'll last until the --

GLENN: No. No, no, no. No. Now, Stu, I have to give you an update on some of these things we're trying to do to curb the emergency. First of all, we're all using way too much water. And, you know, water belongs to the state, not to us. California is -- has just sent out a letter. The notice of groundwater extraction reporting. That is now required under the sustainable groundwater management act. So people in California, if you have a well, you're getting -- you're getting a letter that says, this notice is to inform you, that the state water resources control board, believes you own property or properties, not covered by the management authority of Ground Water Sustainability Agency, as required under the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act. The state water board considers areas within high priority or medium priority groundwater basin, that are not within the jurisdiction much GSA, to be unmanaged under SGMA. So here's what you have to do: If you're pumping groundwater within unmanaged areas, this notice is intended to provide you with early notification, so you can take appropriate steps necessary to meet your reporting responsibilities. Now, I love reporting responsibilities. I think everybody does. You know, especially when you've bought a piece of property, and you have a well. That's your well. That's the water you pump up. And I love the reporting responsibilities. But it goes further than just reporting. This -- this -- this apparently has a base filing fee. You know, when you find out, what are my responsibilities. I love this. I want to be a responsible citizen in California. And they're like, well, you have to pay a filing fee of $300 per well. I mean, we already have your name. We already know you have a well. Because that's why -- that's why we wrote to you and told you, but you need to tell us that you have a well. And that's going to cost you $300. And then you also have an additional fee of $10 per acre foot with a meter. And 25 per acre foot without a meter. And if you're tardy, you will get a late fee of 25 percent per month. So...

STU: Hmm. This is -- what could possibly go wrong here?

GLENN: Well, I mean -- go ahead.

STU: I was at a -- I was at a restaurant over -- over vacation, if you ask my scale. I would point to several. But one in particular, showed a -- the intersection of all of the green stuff, with all of the covid stuff. And it was this lengthy dissertation on how to wash your hands. And it started with turning -- because they wanted you to do two things. Wash your hands to this ridiculous extent of covid, where they want you to do it for ten minutes. And also, save water. It was like, turn the water on. Wet your hands. Go get soap. Wash your hands together for 20 seconds. Turn the water back on. Rinse your hands. Turn the water back off. Shake your hands dry. Because you don't want to use too many towels or have the power dryer on for too long. And it went on and on. It was a legitimately 14 steps on how to wash your hands, in this period, where we're supposed to spend almost all of our time washing our hands, but none of our time with the water on.

GLENN: Well, I can't remember. Sara, can you remember? Because Barack knew something around 2008, that I just didn't know.

VOICE: Barack knows that we're going to have to make sacrifices. We're going to have to change our conversation. We're going to have to change our traditions, our history. We're going to have to move into a different place.

GLENN: And I think we're in a different place. Where it's a 14-step process to wash your hands. By the way, back to the water thing, the state water resources control board, I'm not sure how they have the right for imminent domain. Because that's what's happening. You own your water. They are now saying, the state owns the water. And the next step is rainwater. Now, that's what's happening in Colorado. They just need to make some more money. So you can't just scoop up all that rainwater. Because the state owns that rainwater. Now, I'm pretty sure that God owns that rainwater. And it rains equally on everybody. So if you want to save it, you can save it. If not, let the flowers grow.

By the way, the -- the other great thing about this is, when you look at this, it says the Californians have to report this themselves. And you have to start paying a fee for the water that is being pumped -- starting February 2023. And what I think is really great about this, is the government wrote the letter. But they don't provide any service. At least for free. You have to pay the $300 to let them know that, yes. Their letter was right. You have water. But then they don't support it. There is no product. They don't even do the billing. That's you. Okay? So they don't provide the water. It's already there. They don't even bill you for the water, you have to.

So I think this is -- I think this is going to go over big. But that's to protect the planet. As is this, the federal government of Canada is looking to impose a requirement to reduce nitrous oxide emissions from fertilizers. Because it's a greenhouse gas, that is contributing to climate change.

Now, the Trudeau government says, they want a 30 percent reduction in emissions from farms. Not the fertilizer. Farm producers groups say, at this point, reducing nitrous oxide emissions can't be done without reducing the fertilizer use. But they are saying, we just need a 30 percent. Just 30 percent cut. So just cut at some place. And they're like, no. Well, we don't use nitrous oxide at anything, but fertilizer.

Several provincial governments in Canada now, and organizations representing farmers have asked for emission reductions for -- from fertilizer to be measured via intensity. Meaning, how much food is being produced, in comparison to the amount of fertilizer used. And Trudeau has said, that sounds totally -- no. I'm sorry. No. That's what I said. That's totally reasonable. They are demanding an absolute reduction in emissions. Farmers are telling the government now in Canada. That that's going to result in a lot less food being produced. And we're kind of on the edge with that right now. Oh, and that kind of reminds me. Net zero is breaking the energy markets in -- in Australia. These -- I guess they're having gas prices. Is the Putin gas hike there too? Must be. My gosh, it's everywhere.

Anyway, the energy market is tubing in Australia there as well. Because the government is basically threatening people with ESG. And the -- the net zero thing is -- is really -- it's really working out well for them. The literal doubling of electricity prices, is -- is happening in Australia now. So they just doubled the price of electricity. And, you know, it's just for customers. You know, it's small towns, or small electricity retailers. But they say that net zero by 2050, will require 120 trillion dollars in Australian money. Remember, that's Australian money. So those numbers always seem crazy. That's just 86.25 trillion in the U.S. dollar. So it's much -- much more reasonable.

STU: A bargain.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. And that's just equivalent -- that's just equivalent to $369,000 for a household of four. And an annual cost of $30,200 per person. But just over the next 28 years. So once we pay that.

STU: And that -- that won't increase. That won't make things better, right? Like, this isn't something that will get us a lot more electricity, and innovation. That will just continue what we currently have. But with new green energy options. What?

GLENN: Well, no. We're shutting everything down. Well, I can't say anything. The West is shutting everything down. For instance, Australia has to cut their carbon emissions. And they're just not going to be doing it in the coal fire plant as well. They are going to be doing it in the coal-fired plants. But it won't be Australian emissions. China has 57 coal-fired stations for every single one in Australia. And Australia is providing them with some of that coal. And so they're just shipping it off to someplace else. Which is good. Because that's the way -- you know, the air stays in China. The Chinese air. It stays right there. It never moves.

STU: Uh-huh. If we've learned any lesson in the last couple of years. Anything in the air in China, stays in the air in China. That's the lesson we've taken in 2020.

Megyn Kelly EVISCERATES ABC Debate moderators for Kamala bias

@MegynKelly‬ joins Glenn Beck to react to the ABC News Presidential Debate. At no point was it Donald Trump vs Kamala Harris, she argues. It was Trump vs EVERYONE. As a former presidential debate moderator herself, Megyn tears into the ABC News moderators for "fact-checking" Trump while letting Kamala get away with lie after lie: “The only time you should weigh in as a moderator is if the integrity of your question is attacked. These ABC News moderators didn’t understand that, or they just didn’t care.” Plus, Megan explains why she believes Harris' performance at the debate didn't win her any votes: "The person who’s going to be [our first female president] is not going to be an emotionally unregulated, harrumphing, sighing hysteric.”

GLENN: Megyn Kelly, welcome to the program. How are you, Megyn?

MEGYN: Enraged. Angry. Just in disbelief at what our imagery has become.

GLENN: It was state-run media.

For her to go in and say so many lies. She -- that proves, this is state-run media.

She knew she could get away with saying lie after lie after lie after lie.

I've never seen anything like it.

And no corrections.

MEGYN: I could have lived with that. Politicians lie all the time. But the one-sided, quote, fact-checking was so outrageous.

I would have been fine. They have done what CNN did. Which is just be quiet. Dana Bash and Jake Tapper did not try to fact-check the candidates. They let them do that to each other. Which is totally appropriate in a presidential debate. It's actually the way it should be. It's not our job to set the record straight.

The only time you should weigh in as a moderator, is if the integrity of your questions is attacked. Right? Like they're attacking the underlying foundation for what they're asking. But as for the answer, that's for the other candidate to do.

And these ABC news moderators didn't understand that, or they just didn't care. If CNN actually got hammered by the left for doing that, the left wanted them to get out there and criticize Donald Trump. And they said, oh, no, you said this. And that's wrong and so on. And ABC News clearly watched that and said, oh, well, that can't be us.

We've got to pander to our base. And so they only fact-checked him. Their fact-checks were incorrect and/or were opinion.

And then you had the assist by the rest of the media, and back to CNN. And its absolute credence, named Daniel Dale.

Who is fact-checked after the fact. Was that Trump lied 33 times. And she lied once!

GLENN: Once!

MEGYN: That's what we're up against. Yes!

GLENN: What was the one he picked?

Was it like a lottery? You put all the lies into a little basket, and you twirl it around, mix it up.

B17. What was the lie?

MEGYN: Yeah. He didn't make that clear. Because on Twitter, he called her out for trying to claim that she had reversed her -- her personal stance on fracking in 2020. You know, she wanted to ban it. And then in 2020, she has been claiming she didn't want to ban it, which isn't true.

In 2020, the VP debate, she said Joe Biden would not ban it. She has never put her stance on it.

But nothing about the Charlottesville, both sides lie, about the bloodbath, about the 2025 nonsense, about saying Trump is against IVF.

Nothing. No, that's fine.

GLENN: So, Megyn, what she had to do last night was assure people, that -- that hadn't seen her, act presidential, to appear to be strong, tough, and presidential.

Did she do that, for enough people?

MEGYN: Well, you added that phrase at the end. Which makes me say, no.

"For enough people." I don't think it was a game-changer last night. I think most people will say, she won the debate. But here's what I saw.

I saw somebody who engaged in nothing, but personal ad hominem attacks against Donald Trump throughout.

I mean, at every chance she could. She went low, insulted him personally. And on that, he actually didn't take the bait. He took the bait on every other thing. You know, on the subject of immigration, and suddenly, we're off topic about rally size. And he went there.

Okay. But on the personal attacks, he didn't. I saw somebody who couldn't control herself emotionally. She was on screen, right? Harrumphing. Rolling her eyes. Hands up on the chin. Like, oh, aren't you so interesting?

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. That was -- I've never seen anybody actually put their hand up on the chin, and rest their elbow on their other hand.

I mean, it was --

MEGYN: And let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. This country has not elected a female president in 250 years. The person who is going to be number one is not going to be an emotionally unregulated, harrumphing, sighing, hysteric. And that's how she appeared in the split screen for the first half an hour of the debate. She's not a controlled leader. I cannot believe that the people sitting at home, don't forget this election is coming down at the margins to men versus women.

Men are for Trump. And women are for Kamala. That these men sitting at home, are going to say, I'm going to vote for her.

I can sit at home, on Election Day, and let her win. I just think they're going to be motivated by how extreme she is. Yes, on policy. Which Trump failed to point out last night.

But her behavior. She's not a strong leader. She's the opposite of a Margaret Thatcher. And I think her schoolgirl attacks on him personally. You know, trying to undermine the dignity of this man who served as president. And who almost was assassinated a month or two ago. And her eye rolling and so on.

Which telegraphs, I can't control myself. Were a real turnoff.

GLENN: Let me ask you.

I was personally offended. And I can't imagine that the American people weren't.

When he was talking about how people are suffering.

And you can't afford, you know, the groceries, at the grocery store.

When she laughed and rolled her eyes, at that. I saw that, and I'm like, oh, my gosh. You -- you're in, A, such denial, that that is happening.

Or you just don't care!

Do you think that -- did that play on you?

MEGYN: Yep. It was moment that she laughed. She laughed when he was raising what was happening in Springfield, Ohio.

She openly laughed. These four people, if you can accept the testimonials or not, they have not, in fact, been debunked. You have one city manager, who says he can't prove any of that.

He hasn't found the proof of it.

That doesn't mean it didn't happen. Another totally inappropriate quote, fact checked by David Muir. What we have here is a "he said, she said" situation. It's not up to the moderators to try to fix it.

But she laughed at it. She rolled her eyes. And what is she laughing at? Immigration. What's happening in our cities, because of the minimal. This has what has been documented. 10.4 million illegals, who have come under her watch.

2.3 million under Trump's four years. 10.4, minimum, not counting gotaways, under hers.

And when the question is raised, look at what's happening to American cities, because of it. She laughed.

You know who is not laughing? The family of Laken Riley, the family of that 12-year-old little girl who was murdered by illegals down at the Southern border, who Trump went down and spent time with.

That's the kind of stuff, Trump needed to raise and didn't.

But at a minimum, his team now today, needs to be showing cackling Kamala, back at it, on the two worse issues for her: The economy and immigration.

GLENN: Yeah. Can you run for president?

You would make a really good president. You would. You would make a really good president.

MEGYN: Thank you. I'm too happy a person for that.
(laughter)

GLENN: So you agree that Trump -- she came out immediately and said, let's do another one.

I think he should say, sure. Let's do five.

MEGYN: Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, that would be amazing.

And you know what they should say, I'll do it. And I'll pick one moderator. And you pick the other.

Why don't we do that?

Don't give it to -- if Trump agrees to go on another mainstream -- and that's a fake term. That is just a BS term. What is mainstream about these people?

GLENN: I think we should start calling them state media. It's state media now.

MEGYN: True. This is one example. How many questions did we have on 2020 election denialism and so on? And how many questions did we have about what's being done to young girls in this country, and about the cutting off body parts of kids who are just confused, because their parents got a divorce.

Not one. They don't care. They're in favor of that. That's not mainstream. So, anyway, if he agrees to go back on the air and do a debate with another state-run media company -- NBC, CBS, obviously ABC is out -- they ought to be out forever. No Republican should ever agree to that again.

GLENN: Ever. Ever.

MEGYN: MSNBC. Then he deserves what he gets. He deserves what he gets. It should be, if they do anything at this point forward, there's no moderator. They go mono a mono. Or he picks one, and she picks one.

GLENN: But he has got to expose her, because nobody else will. And she will crumble eventually. I mean, she just -- she's arrogant now.

She came in after five days of memorizing all of these lies. Really well-prepared.

MEGYN: Yes. Uh-huh. That's what was so frustrating, Glenn.

You can see it, couldn't you.

She was like an automaton. Giving these lies. She heard this before the DNC.

Mark Halperin reported that she's been getting help -- he did it sort of tongue-in-cheek, so you had to read between the lines.

But it was CAA. And Brian Lord who was one of the heads of CAA. One of the most powerful agencies or one of them. Talent agency, in the country.

And that they were bringing in top Hollywood actors and actresses, to coach her, on delivery.

That's what she -- it takes to make her salable to the American people. But I really believe that the people sitting in Ohio, know that. They watched that. And there's just no way, they looked at her, and thought, yeah. This is the genuine person who cares about me.

She barely talked about them.

Her whole -- debate performance was to convince them -- by the way, same stance of the moderators. How terrible Trump is.

It was not, your first day in service. She tried to say, oh, I'm middle class. And I understand your problems.

It was not about them, or the economy.

GLENN: One last thing.

When she was calling him week, and remember, she said -- you're going to hear nothing, but name-calling tonight. Well, yes, from her.

But when she kept saying over and over again, you know, you're weak. You're weak. You're weak.

She was just trying to get the under his skin, the entire time. And I have to tell you, I don't know if I could have been as restrained as he was last night. You know, 90 minutes of lies.

MEGYN: I don't.

GLENN: I don't think I could have contained myself. I would have lost.

MEGYN: I agree. I agree.

I mean, my blood was boiling. His blood had to be boiling. Obviously, this was her plan. But the -- the number of personal emasculating attacks, she launched on him.

If he had done anything like that, to her. He would be getting lectured all day, about his misogyny.

GLENN: Yes.

MEGYN: But she got away with it entirely. And all I could think of when I looked at Trump, this is like a soldier in -- in a foxhole. Surrounded by enemy fire.

GLENN: Yeah.

MEGYN: Trying to return fire, you know, one by one by one. But the hits we him were uniform.

It was a pile-on. It was non-stop. And when I looked at the way ABC handled it.

100 percent as effective and strong as a competitor to him, as she was.

All I could think was, ambush.

This is an ambush. They laid a trap for him, by assuring him, they could be fair.

He fell for it. He walked in there. And all they did was ask him horrible questions for him.

If he didn't answer it. You know, he tried to bridge. Or he had his own messaging. On him, they would follow-up. The question was this. The question was this.

On her, they never did that. And then they would try to fact-check him. And nine times out of ten. Their fact-check was incorrect.

And they never once fact-checked her.

And all of the topic selection was left-wing anti-Trump. I mean, every single question they asked, maybe two were normal.

GLENN: It was. It was.

MEGYN: So he was like the soldier that was ambushed.

And now, I do have a belief.

I know it's contrarian.

But I really have a belief. That the average American at home, who watches that, gets it on a visceral level.

And I just don't expect any sort of big bounce for her.

GLENN: From your lips to God's ear. Thank you so much, Megyn.

You can hear Megyn and, you know, her whole opinion on Sirius XM, immediately following this program on Triumph.

Thank you so much. Appreciate it, Megyn.

MEGYN: My pleasure.

GLENN: You bet. Buh-bye.

OUTRAGEOUS! Glenn Beck REACTS to Harris/Trump ABC News Presidential Debate

"I have never heard as many LIES in any debate." Glenn Beck rails against the "state-run media" immediately after watching the ABC News Presidential Debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Not only did Harris spew lie after lie, but the ABC News moderators ONLY fact-checked Trump! Joining Glenn for analysis on the panel are fellow BlazeTV hosts Stu Burguiere of‪@studoesamerica‬, Sara Gonzales of‪@saragonzalesunfiltered‬, ‪@lizwheeler‬, and Steve Deace‪@sdeace‬‪@sdeace‬.

Liz Wheeler: Trump must EXPOSE these RADICAL Kamala Harris plans

BlazeTV host ‪@lizwheeler‬ joins Glenn Beck with her predictions for the ABC News debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. Does Kamala want to appear as a “girl boss” taking on a white, patriarchal bully? How should Trump counter this? Liz advises Trump to focus on how radical Harris is, despite what she claims on the campaign trail: highlight her record on things like abortion, child gender surgeries, the military and foreign wars, and the economy.

GLENN: Liz Wheeler. How are you?

LIZ: Hi, I'm well. Thanks for having had me.

GLENN: You're welcome. You're welcome. So I guess I will start with where Stu started with me this morning. Are you optimistic?

LIZ: I'm so excited for this debate.

GLENN: Are you really?

LIZ: Yes. I'm a political nerd. I just love this stuff.

I know it's a circus. It's a clown show.

It seems like a culmination of what we fight for every day. We finally have two people that are representing polar opposite viewpoints for our country.

Different paths. And I'm rooting for Trump.

I think he can win. But I think one of the most important thing he has to do is understand his enemy. If you know your enemy, then you will be able to tweet them. And he has to be very self-aware that Kamala Harris will be this girl boss. Girl power. She will try to provoke him emotionally.

And he has to be able to let that roll off his back.

GLENN: So what do you mean, she will be the girl boss, girl power?

LIZ: Remember when she was debating Mike Pence during the last round, and she goes, excuse me, Vice President, I'm speaking?

Why do you think this time, her team, insisted that the mics be left open. Remember, the first debates?

Between Trump and Biden. The mics were muted. So you could only speak during your allotted time, otherwise no one would be able to hear you. All of a sudden, she had agreed to this.

Then last week, her team said, we want the mics open. Why?

So she could run these, quote, unquote, fact-checks in realtime.

She can say, you're lying, I'm speaking. And make it seem like he's this white patriarchal male, who is trying to be a bully to her as a woman of color.

GLENN: Right.

I think if he handle this is debate, exactly the same way, he handled it the way with Joe Biden.

He will do really well.

LIZ: Yes. He did very well with Joe Biden.

Because he was so disciplined with his message.

See, this is the thing. Kamala Harris is a radical. She is not moderate. She's not centrist. She shouldn't appeal to independents. She is a radical leftist. A Marxist. Her father was a Marxist. Is a Marxist.

Economics professor.

And Donald Trump should highlight that.

He has all the facts on his side.

She had been in the White House for four years thousand.

Her record is Joe Biden's record.

GLENN: Well, I don't know if you heard the news today.

But her policy page is Joe Biden's policy page.

How do you do that?

LIZ: It's like a gift to the Trump campaign.

GLENN: Oh, it absolutely is.

LIZ: She will come out and pretend to be a prosecutor. She will ask him pointed question after pointed question without --

GLENN: Yeah, she will call him a felon.

LIZ: Yes, and you know what she should do?

If she calls him a felon. Because she's going to -- that's polled well for them. He should say, Madam Vice President, do you agree with the Supreme Court ruling, that the vaccine mandate that came from the Biden/Harris administration was illegal? If she says she agrees with the Supreme Court, then she is acknowledging that she was a tyrant. Trying to violate all of our medical freedoms. And if she says no, I think the Supreme Court is wrong. Then she's saying, she thinks it's illegal to do that.

When you want to talk about crime -- a visceral response that people are going to have to a crime committed against them, he should pivot to the topic that's important for the viewers to understand. He's never going to change Kamala's mind on mind.

That's not the point. The point is to showcase the American people, what she is.

GLENN: You know, you've started with saying. And I've wanted this for a long time.

If we're going to talk about communism. We're going to talk about truly changing the economy.

Changing the Constitution.

All the things that the world economic four up until has been doing.

Along with the Biden Harris thing.

Then let's have that -- let's that have conversation, honestly. You know.

And we do have, literally, a communist.

She -- what she is preparing, is communism.

And her dad loves that stuff. So she grew up steeped in all of this stuff.

But she won't admit it. That's the problem.

LIZ: No, but her track record shows it. So all Trump has to do is remember one question. Every time she makes an assertion, he should say, what does that mean?

He should say it rhetorically. He shouldn't give her back the microphone. He says, I'm going to be tough on the border. What does that mean?

During the past four years, when you were in the White House and had control of this, as the border czar, which was acknowledged by the United States Congress after Biden appointed you to that position, eight and a half million illegal aliens cross the border. So when you say you will be tough on the border, is that your definition of tough on the border, or did you fail when you had a chance at this job?

GLENN: She is going to say, we have greatly stopped the flow of --

KAMALA: I hope she does, because that will turn people off.

Because people have Haitian migrants eating ducks in their front yard in Springfield, Ohio. They won't believe her when she says, everything is hunky-dory.

GLENN: Yeah, I don't -- tell me this.
I said to Stu yesterday, that I'm actually becoming more and more optimistic about this election.

Because things are getting so bad.

KAMALA: Yeah.

GLENN: That the average person. I mean if you're -- you're a stay at home mom. If you're a mom, you are worried about your kids getting to and from school. Even in California.

Where now the immigrants are just staying at the bus stop.

Standing there with your kids. And if the bus sees a bunch of immigrants there.

Because they're trying to get on the buses. If they see them, they just blow on by. They won't pick your kid up.

So now your kid is left at the bus stop, with illegals, because the bus driver does not want to stop. You have your -- every day, you're going in, and you're fighting against prices.

The rate of the rise of inflation. Has slowed down.

But they keep saying that, you know, inflation is -- is falling.

No. The rate of how -- the rate of how -- of going up. Has slowed down.

But we're still 20 to 23 percent inflation, compared to when Trump was in office.

GLENN: That's all he has to say.

He just has to say. My fellow Americans. How much are you paying for groceries right now?

What was your grocery bill last week? How much did it cost you to fill up your tank of gas, the last time you filled up at the gas station?

And then he says, and how much did it cost when I was president?

And if Kamala Harris says, I will impose price controls, or some other Communist measure for the food industry. That's her general idea. Which showcases exactly what she is. He just has to say, well, do you support continuing to send US dollars to Ukraine. Because that's what's causing inflation.

She will say, yes. This is a fight against Putin. He's a tyrant. Blah, blah, blah. After she finishes her spiel, Trump just says, okay. So what I'm hearing you say, is, yes, you want to continue to spend American dollars in Ukraine.

Which means you're saying to the American people, you don't care how much their gas and groceries cost.

I do care. And I've proved that. Because when I was in the White House, people had a very different life, than when you were in the White House.

GLENN: Yes. When it comes up to Ukraine. I mean, right now, Afghanistan is on everybody's mind again because it was the anniversary.

And that was such a disaster. And now, we are -- we are openly praising Ukrainians for their drone attacks on Moscow.

We would never put a -- if Canada became an enemy, and Russia was sending drones over. And military equipment.

And they were -- they were bombing with drones. New York or Washington, DC.

We would not put up with it.

They're not going to put up with it either.

And you can't -- how is she going to make the case, that we are safer today?

Again, I go back to the mom, worried about her kids.

I don't want to send my kids to war.

I don't want our world to be at war. I'm also, I don't want drag queens in my -- at my school, you know, for my kids.

All of these things are so much worse.

That I just think that, when people close the curtain, this time around, they are going to reflect. Do I want more of this?

GLENN: Right. This is why I encourage President Trump to stay on message. Because if you get into the weeds on the personal stuff, as entertaining as that might be for us to watch for a moment, the average American wants to talk about how things impacted them. That's classic politics.

So with the war in Ukraine. Yes. You can talk about these hypothetical war plans. The truth of the matter is, Kamala is dragging us to the bring of war. She's arguably the one who started this war, by saying Ukraine could be part of NATO.

That was, what? A month before Russia invaded Ukraine.

There's no doubt, that there was a correlation between those comments and the onset of this war. She is a warmonger. She wants to continue this.

And then she wants to draft our daughters and send them to the war. Tell that to the average suburban mom. I have two young daughters. The idea that Kamala Harris could send them off to war, enrages me.

GLENN: I have an 18-year-old daughter. That could be drafted, I guess, under her, if we went into a war. That is --

LIZ: It's unacceptable.

GLENN: And there's no Canada for my son to run to. But I would have to have some place for my son and daughter to run to.

They will not serve in a war with these people. They won't. I, as a dad would say, do not do it. Where do we have you go to?

LIZ: And it's a very frightening prospect in our country. We shouldn't be in a situation where we feel like we have to run away from our country, otherwise our children --

GLENN: Yeah. I have never felt that way. Never. Under any president.

LIZ: I have not either. And I'm a newer parent than you are. My oldest is three and a half.

But my idea that I'm already having to think about all these different ways to protect her, from the left trying to get her. Whether trying to indoctrinate her on abortion.

I actually had last year. It was not this past November, but the November before. I had a debate with the local school board member, outside the polls. I was walking in and carrying my daughter on my hip. And the school board member, or this candidate I knew was very leftist. And she wanted to talk about her policies. And I was like, sure. I enjoy this a little bit.

And I said to her, do you believe in teaching trend-setter ideology to children? And she goes, oh, we need to be inclusive. I held up my daughter who I don't use for political props. But she was just there with me voting. And I said, so if my 2-year-old at the time, said she wanted to be a boy, you would transition her behind my back? And essentially, she said yes. And I said, evil. That's evil. That's what we're fighting against. People who will say that to your face.

GLENN: I know.

LIZ: President Trump should bring that up.

GLENN: You know, it's amazing what they will say to our face. And then what they say is a conspiracy theory. That they always turn out now, to be absolutely accurate. And they eventually admit it. Yes. Okay.

That is true. The things that they say to our face, are frightening enough. When somebody is unclear with you, in this administration, you should be terrified.

And I don't know why people continue to listen to liars. You know, Donald Trump exaggerates. He exaggerates.

I don't know. I mean, I can't think of anything. Of any importance, that he has exaggerated or lied about.

Can you think of anything that he lied about?

STU: For example, we talked about a couple of times. When he was saying, no. No one opposed Roe vs. Wade being overturned. Right?

Now, what he's talking about there is clearly there were, a lot of people on the left, legal scholars who did think it was bad law. So he is summarizing a legitimate situation by overstating it.
GLENN: Yes. Correct. Correct.

LIZ: It's like a general -- a hyperbolic generalization on a lie. I'm not trying to justify or be precise. But there is a difference.

GLENN: Yeah. There is a difference. And especially when you know you're lying.

You know, it's one thing to say this, and, you know. And he said, there are fine people on both sides.

No. At this point, you are engaging in evil, because you know exactly what you're doing.

That is exact opposite of what he said. And they just. I guess people just are -- they're either numb to it. Or they hopefully are waking up, and going, you know what, these people have given me this crap, in my -- in my home. In my bank account. And with -- in my city.

I can't trust them anymore. I don't -- I mean, I just can't keep doing it.

LIZ: Right. And obviously, Kamala is responsible for her own lies. But the institution that is responsible for allowing her to be a liar is the mainstream media. And that's what I would advise President Trump.

He shouldn't come off as a bully. There is the idea that if you have a man and a woman on stage, and the man is being harsh, there are a lot of women, who will interpret that as being a bullying demeanor.

Whether or not it's true, that's simply the reality of how people perceive things. And so he should say, what does that mean? When she says a lie.

Because here are the statistics that show that that's not true. And say, I don't know why you're not -- but to deceive the American people. But this is why -- this is a good example of the damage that happens when the mainstream runs interference for you. Because you shouldn't be on the stage if you're not going to tell a truth. But that should have been weeded out years ago by media actually doing their job and asking questions, about why you were contradicting your actions.

GLENN: All right. Back in just a second. We're with Liz Wheeler. I want to talk to you, Liz, about abortion. How should he handle? Because that's her big thing.

She's in the evil territory.

LIZ: She's not just pro-choice. She's pro-abortion.

GLENN: Oh, yeah, and she's almost Malthusian. You know, when you're willing to go, well, let the baby die after birth. That's a problem.

LIZ: It's child sacrifice.

GLENN: Yeah. It is.

So how should he handle abortion? Because she's going to lie and say, he wants to take all of your rights away. Which he doesn't. But he -- he has to say, what he actually believes. But he also can't piss off his own core, because he already is --

LIZ: He did.

GLENN: Yeah. He's already pissed them off. So he doesn't need to make it worse. How does he respond to that?

LIZ: It depends on how she brings it up. I'm more pro-life than Donald Trump. I'm a pro-life absolutist, and I encourage Donald Trump and everyone to be the same.

I acknowledge the reality that he is not. My advice to him would be to start out by praising life. Say, life is precious. Life is wonderful. I have five children. I have however many grandchildren. They have been the biggest blessings of my life. And I want to ensure that women across our country and American families, I want to make abortion unthinkable. I want to change the culture so that life is something that we value. I want to us think, who might this young girl or young boy be?

And I want to make it financially possible, I want people to feel financially secure and emotionally supported when they face these surprise pregnancies.

I believe that life begins at conception. I know he's unlikely to say that. Because he talks often about thinking abortion is okay through six weeks. I obviously disagree with that. But I encourage him to follow the science.

He always talks about following the heart. If he truly spends some time and reflection, I think he should be based.

I think he should say, abortion is wrong. Abortion is sad. Abortion ends the life of an unborn baby, who had potential and a future. And it harms women, it harms families. It harms our country. I don't want that.

And he should make it a generally positive message, without sacrificing the value of the dignity of life.

GLENN: Can he go in to, you know, she wants -- she wants abortion after birth?

CAORL: Oh, of course, he should highlight. He, of course, should highlight just how radical she is.

I mean, this is one of the most radical politicians in our country on abortion, if not the most.

GLENN: Oh, yeah. She's almost Margaret Sanger.

LIZ: Probably more so, because Margaret Sanger at the beginning didn't support late-term abortion or after-birth abortion.

GLENN: That's true. That's true.

LIZ: Kamala Harris does.

And he should highlight, that she's out of step with the American people. Even women who identify as pro-choice, 80 percent of Americans, including pro-choice women want late-term abortion to be banned.

Sixty percent want late-term abortion should be banned. He should highlight that he stands with the majority of America. And that she -- she does not.

And he certainly should highlight that the CDC says between 13 and 30,000 times a year, late-term abortions happen. That's awful.

GLENN: Liz Wheeler. She'll be joining us tonight for our live coverage of the debate on Blaze TV.

DEBATE PREDICTION: Will Kamala & ABC News try to TRAP Trump?

The first debate between former president Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris is quickly approaching. So, Glenn and Stu give their best predictions: Will Trump force Harris to finally admit the policies she’s for? Will Harris try to trap Trump into making comments that the media can spin? Will she just call him a “felon” constantly? Will Trump bring his classic energy, or has surviving an assassination attempt mellowed him? And which would be better in his face-off against Harris? Glenn and Stu also discuss a report from the Media Research Center, which found that the debate’s host network, ABC News, is as biased as can be.

Transcript

Below is a rush transcript that may contain errors

STU: So the debate is tonight.

GLENN: Yes, it is.

STU: And it is going to be an interesting one. I don't think it can live up to the standards of the last one. I just don't think that it can get to that level.

GLENN: Yeah. But wouldn't it be nice?

STU: I think so. As long as it doesn't happen in the opposite direction.

GLENN: Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

But there is a chance that either one of them, could just step on a land mine.

STU: It's very possible.

And I'm -- I will -- are you concerned?

What's your concern level? One to ten. Glenn Beck concern level going into tonight.

GLENN: Because it's American politics, and the stakes are so high. One to ten. 100.

STU: Yeah. I'm kind of there. I don't know if we're there for the same reasons.

GLENN: What?

STU: Because the stakes are super high. Obviously, you're concerned.

GLENN: That's 99 percent of it.

STU: Your concern is not Kamala Harris is an amazing debater, right?

GLENN: No. It's just that she's going to be everything she can, just to get under his skin. I mean, that is literally the -- the plan. Is to get under his skin. Make him angry, so he says something.

STU: Yep.

GLENN: And, you know, I just hope that he -- he is as good as he was, on the last debate.

STU: Yes. As far as knowing what the situation is, and knowing what's going on. Right? It is -- a lot of it is about awareness in that moment. And that is probably what Trump is best at, in these debates. You think back to the -- well, you would be in jail. That moment, with Hillary Clinton.

That was him, just picked apart the conversation at the moment. He's very good at that. He's obviously not as skilled at going after policy details. That's not what his game is.

GLENN: I bet it will be tonight. I bet it will be tonight. What is your plan? What is your plan? What is your plan? Let's talk about details. What's your plan?

STU: Right. Asking about them constantly. Like him trying to recite parts of health care laws, is not a good point for Donald Trump.

GLENN: No. It's not going to be good for her either.

STU: No. And she is the reverse of Trump. She's much worse in the moment. She's much worse realizing what's going on. The only thing I think she will try to do I think in this debate is to make Donald Trump, lure him into some sort of, quote, unquote, sexist, quote, unquote, racist moment.

That she can exploit.

You go back to that Mike Pence debate. Where she said, excuse me.

Mr. Vice president.

GLENN: I'm speaking. Oh, shut up.

STU: It's like, we know you're speaking. The problem is the words coming out of your mouth.

It's not that you were speaking.

If you were saying true things, you wouldn't need to be interrupting. But you're lying constantly. That is the moment they'll try to get that into something. And to be clear, the media will try to magnify that into something it's not.

GLENN: ABC is so bad. So bad.

Did you see the numbers on ABC? Let me see if I can find it real quick. So ABC is absolutely the most biased out of all of them. They are so much more worse. Is that right?

They're worse than NBC. And that's saying something!

STU: Really?

GLENN: Yeah. According to -- according to, you know, a watchdog group, they --

STU: The earner center, I think it was.

GLENN: Yeah. I think it was. They tracked CBS, ABC, and NBC. CBS was actually the most fair and balanced out of the three.

I think it had a score in the 70s. And what they scored was, is there any -- is it balanced?

Is there the other side ever being shown?

Is the anchor ever giving the benefit of the doubt?

Are they saying something positive?

Or is it just all negative?

On Kamala Harris, it was 100 percent positive coverage.

100 percent.

STU: Well, it wasn't 110 percent positive.

GLENN: It could have been worse.

STU: Well, actually, it can't be.

That's unbelievable.

GLENN: Here it is. No. Actually, NBC was best. 71 percent, with NBC.

STU: 71 percent positive is the best. The best number?

GLENN: The best number is 100 percent.

STU: No. But I'm saying, like for our -- for fairness. The best one was 71 percent positive.

GLENN: Seventy-one percent.

Then 94 percent for CBS. ABC, 100 percent.

STU: And what's the time period on this? They must say one negative thing?

GLENN: Oh, yeah. Since --

STU: Since?

GLENN: She became the candidate.

STU: Oh, my God. That's over a month.

That's 50 days now?

GLENN: Yeah. 100 percent. Now, Trump's negative coverage, 77 percent on CBS.

86 percent on ABC.

STU: Oh, my God. These are terrible.

GLENN: Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

But -- but nobody -- nobody even -- nobody even came close.

STU: I didn't even think about that.

GLENN: 100 percent.

STU: I have to -- you have to think about it. Are they this incompetent?

How have they ever lost an election? With this environment, how do you lose elections?

GLENN: Well, I don't know if it's ever been this bad.

STU: Yeah. Yeah.

GLENN: Now, it is -- it's just lies. I mean, they've always gotten stories wrong.

And they're like, well, yeah. That's not the way you frame that story.

You know what I mean?

That's the way it used to be. And then some lies.

Now, it is non-stop.

If I hear that very fine people thing, one more phylum

STU: How many times can they do this?

Oh, my gosh. And they just keep getting away with it.

STU: Did you see the one they tried to J.D. Vance?

GLENN: No.

STU: J.D. Vance. Quote. Shootings are just a part of life. Are you kidding me? That's not what he did. That's not what he said.

GLENN: In context, he made a big deal about how horrible this was.

What I tragedy this shooting was.

And he said, unfortunately, and I don't like this. Shootings have become part of life.

STU: Yeah. A fact of life. And we've got to stop it.

STU: But if you take all the context out. And say fact of life. It looks like you're just this, yes, and wants people to die.

GLENN: Hey, whatever. Those kids are killed. It's a fact of life, you know what I mean?

STU: Let's build all schools near a mountain so they have high ground for all these assassins. It's like, no, that's not what he said.

GLENN: It's really almost that.

STU: It's like, they all know what they're doing.

This is the Donald Trump, we're going to have a bloodbath, dot, dot, dot, in the economy.
But they just say bloodbath. This is stuff. They all know what they're doing here. This is not like mistakes.

Not like, this is taken out of context. They are intentionally trying to sink his campaign. Because they hate him.

And I don't know that they love Kamala Harris honestly. She's just the other thing.

GLENN: Well, that quote really originated with the Associated Press. And I don't know if you saw this.

But the Babylon Bee has -- has put a list together of all the things that the AP has said in the past.

And they still stand by it. You know, for instance, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. According to -- according to the AP. The only thing we have, dot, dot, dot. Is fear itself.

STU: Hmm. Wow! I don't --

GLENN: Neil Armstrong.

That's one small, dot, dot, dot, man.

STU: That was a height speech?

GLENN: Yeah. Wayne Gretzky. You miss 100 percent of the shots you, dot, dot, dot, take.
STU: So you shouldn't even try, is what he's saying.

GLENN: Donald Trump, I can't believe he came out and said it. But it was reported by the AP. I am literally, dot, dot, dot, Hitler.

STU: Oh, my gosh. He said that? So he's not even saying he is endorsing the policies of Hitler, he's saying he's the man.

GLENN: And let me tell you, John F. Kennedy is practically Kamala Harris. John F. Kennedy: Ask not, period.

STU: So you shouldn't bother asking.

GLENN: Don't even ask. Don't even ask. How about this one? Martin Luther King: I have a dream that one day, dot, dot, dot, little boys will be, dot, dot, dot, little girls.

STU: So he was for this gender stuff?

GLENN: He was for it.

STU: A reverend was for all of this gender stuff? Glad they covered that.

GLENN: And, of course, you know, you want to talk about weird. Thomas Jefferson. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that men are dot, dot, dot, endowed, dot, dot, dot, well.

STU: Oh, wow. I thought that was Abraham Lincoln they were talking about with those things.

GLENN: Yeah, Patrick Henry: Give me death.

Franklin Roosevelt again. December, dot, dot, dot, will live in infamy.

STU: Just the whole month?

GLENN: Anti-Christmas. Just anti-Christmas. And, of course, Bill Clinton.

I did, dot, dot, dot, that woman. That one is actually --

STU: That's a good summary.

GLENN: That one is right.

You know what they're doing is, they're changing history in realtime. They really, truly believe, that Hitler was right when he said, you say a lie wrong enough, loud enough, people will begin to believe it's the truth.

I mean, there's no other reason to keep saying, very fine people. Other than --

STU: They know they're lying on that. And they may think that secretly it's what he really believes.

They might really. They may actually apply those things to him. I think they hate him enough maybe to believe that.

GLENN: Yeah. I was going to say. You know why they believe that? Not based on any fact. But just what they think.

You know he believes that. What?

You know, what kind of people do they hang around all the time?

STU: The worst people that have ever been created. Maybe it's because they're surrounded by all the most awful people that have ever existed. Could be that.

GLENN: Yeah. And their experience tells them, that everybody on earth, is a scumbag. Because that's all they're surrounded by. And actually, we know that to be true.

We worked -- we worked in those circles. Yeah. Not a lot of home runs there, on the people front. You know.

STU: Home runs on the people front.
(laughter)
That's an interesting way to describe multiple cities. I think it's pretty accurate.
