**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
We finally have a president and an administration fighting for America first. But if conservatives lose focus, the same people who created this mess are gonna go right back in and resume their destructive progressive agendas. Protecting this momentum takes more than just votes. It takes everyday Americans, like you, staying in the fight for our rights and freedoms. That's why more and more people are switching to Patriot Mobile, America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. Patriot Mobile offers premium priority nationwide service on all three major US networks, unlimited data plans, mobile hotspots, international roaming and 100% US based customer support. You can switch in minutes while keeping your phone and your number if that's what you want. Unlike the other carriers, Patriot Mobile puts your money toward causes, defending faith and family and freedom, contributing millions each year into organizations that are on the front lines fighting for our God-given rights. Join the movement today. Go to patriotmobile.com/beck or call 972-PATRIOT. Use the promo code Beck, free month of service, patreonmobile.com/beck, 972-PATRIOT. Make the switch today.

The fusion of entertainment, enlightenment and empowerment. This is The Glenn Beck Program.

**Pat Gray** (1:55)
Pat and Jeffy for Glenn Today. 888-727-VECK.
JD Vance out talking about socialism. Fraud. Had some interesting things to say.

**Jeff Fisher** (2:05)
Looking like he's running.

**Pat Gray** (2:06)
Yeah.

**Jeff Fisher** (2:07)
Looking presidential.

**Pat Gray** (2:09)
He and Marco both lately have been showing the signs.

**Jeff Fisher** (2:12)
Yes, they have.

**Pat Gray** (2:12)
Of, yep, we're running for president. So we'll get into that and more coming up in one minute. There are situations where you know something is wrong long before you know exactly how wrong it's going to get. Somebody's behaving aggressively. They're getting closer. They're ignoring every signal you're giving them to back off. And now you have to make a decision. Except the choices available to you suddenly seem incredibly extreme. That space between doing nothing and using lethal force is exactly where the Burna Launcher makes sense. Burna gives you a powerful, less lethal way to defend yourself and the people you care about from a distance. It looks and handles like a serious defensive tool because that's exactly what it is. Launching projectiles capable of stopping a threat without requiring you to make an irreversible decision in a matter of seconds.
Because real life danger doesn't arrive with a label telling you exactly how far it's going to go.
Sometimes you need the ability to protect yourself immediately while still having an option between helplessness and lethal force. That's why having a Berna nearby can fundamentally change the choices available to you when those choices matter most. So visit berna.com, B-Y-R-N-A. berna.com and find the right launcher for your family. That's berna.com.
Well, it looks a lot like a presidential run is being set up by JD Vance. I really think it's pretty obvious that he's going to run in 2028

**Jeff Fisher** (3:54)
Yes.

**Pat Gray** (3:55)
I think Marco Rubio makes a lot of sense to run too. It would just be tough to choose between the two of them.

**Jeff Fisher** (4:03)
We talked about this the other day on one of our shows. You have JD Vance and you have Marco Rubio and you have Ron DeSantis.

**Pat Gray** (4:15)
We're the only ones that ever talk about Ron DeSantis anymore, but I love it. I think he's great.

**Jeff Fisher** (4:20)
So, I mean, those three are so strong.

**Pat Gray** (4:24)
Yeah, they are.

**Jeff Fisher** (4:24)
And who's going to be number two for those guys? Are any of those guys willing to be number two for the other?

**Pat Gray** (4:33)
I don't think so.

**Jeff Fisher** (4:33)
I think the answer to that is no.

**Pat Gray** (4:37)
No. I think they're all three beyond that.

**Jeff Fisher** (4:40)
So, okay. And I don't disagree with that. But so then what do we have? We have, and I know we'll get to the JD clips if we get to those. But then what do we have? Because now we're infighting hard.
Now, do I think, and do I think just because we're infighting that that gives AOC a better chance? No, but still, I mean, we're just going to tear ourselves apart to get to one of those three. Man, I don't want to do that.

**Pat Gray** (5:11)
Be ashamed, yeah.

**Jeff Fisher** (5:12)
Yeah, I don't want to do that.

**Pat Gray** (5:13)
Yeah.
And, you know, first of all, JD can't run as second banana. He can't be the vice presidential nominee again. He can't.

**Jeff Fisher** (5:22)
I mean, he can, but he's not going to do it. No, no way. He's not going to do that.
