Late-night bites with friends?
Already hard to beat. That first too hot bite of fries you couldn't wait for, followed by ice cold Pepsi. Now that hits different. Suddenly, the energy kicks back in, the night goes longer, and the laughs don't stop, because Pepsi brings out more flavor, more fun, and more of the moment. Food deserves Pepsi. Grab a Pepsi Zero Sugar today.

Why, these things are multiplying like cockroaches. It's just, it's wild to watch, but it is spreading kind of like a virus. This movement happened across the country. In fact, another big moment in Florida last night. Although, we should be worried about it. Maybe I'll give you the good news coming up in, in just a few on that one. We'll go through all the primary results.
We'll talk more about the Red Green Axis in the conversations that you'll want to hear about today. And of course, some of the news that you just won't get anywhere else. Justin Barclay in for Glenn today on The Glenn Beck Program. Back after this.

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

An interesting night in Florida. The free state of Florida last night and the primaries come again. So the thumbnail on this. Much of what we expected did happen. There were a couple of interesting moments. And also in primaries that weren't in Florida. But the biggest headlines are Byron Donald's, Congressman Byron Donald's, the Trump endorsed, appointed, anointed, winning in a blowout. Much expected. As much as you say, for the fake polls lately, these polls lined up precisely where we thought they would. So he wins in a big moment in Florida as some are now, you know, I'm not big on the whole history, you know, making the before it happened. Could make history as the first black governor of Florida. So everything that they want to say, by the way, I'm coming to you from Michigan. We've had that here in Michigan as well. The Republican nominee is John James. Another black man who could be making history as well. So we've got some really interesting juxtaposition, a contrast, I would say, when it comes to, you know, some things that the media Democrats might say about conservatives.
So, but then again, you know how that goes.
It'll be, I believe, a very interesting race against Donald and David Jolly, who's a former Republican and Democrat now. We'll take a look at polling on that race. It'll be another one to keep an eye on.
And I know folks in Florida, from what I hear, you know, through the grapevine, my reports, the intel on the ground, the free state of Florida, so many of them, you know, have enjoyed this just incredible prosperity, incredible peace, fighting with, you know, Alabama or Georgia. I'm kidding. I'm only kidding. But they have, they've really, they've had this amazing moment where the spotlight has shown on them. And they've shown the world how to get it done, particularly Governor Ron DeSantis. And through the crazy years of COVID, you got to see just a textbook example of how to run a state. It is incredible. And I wish, particularly my state as well, would be paying attention, would see, for everything that Florida did, see, this is how you do it. So I know there are folks saying right now to themselves, gosh, no matter what happens, how is this all gonna play out?
You know, in a primary where, you know, folks, I guess you had voices saying, we wanna make sure we get the right choice. Clearly, you have Byron McDonald's as the clear, almost 50% of the vote there in Florida. I have no doubt about how that'll work out. The momentum in that state is already, I think, set the pace.
