Glenn Beck is back with a brand new segment on The Glenn Beck Program! He talks about the dangers of wearing masks in public, and why we should all wear them. He also talks about how we should stop wearing them in public.
00:05:56.500Well, the masters of the universe, a.k.a. the scientists that will tow the party line, have been telling us lately on their televised hits on MSNBC and the like.
00:06:13.680We're supposed to lock ourselves in our homes.
00:06:15.820We're supposed to close the family business.
00:06:17.940We're supposed to put a mask on even in our Zoom calls.
00:07:48.880Well, unfortunately, now we're going to have to fire all of the people at Carnegie Mellon University.
00:07:54.020But they have developed a very informative, consistently updated mask compliance tracker just to find out who's wearing a mask and who's not.
00:08:05.460Santa is coming to town and he knows who's wearing a mask and who's not.
00:08:12.760Well, according to Carnegie Mellon University, the overwhelming majority of Americans across the nation are wearing masks.
00:08:19.540In fact, in virtually every major population center in the United States, especially in areas where COVID-19 cases are rising, mask compliance levels are off the charts, with most major metro areas registering well over 90 percent compliance.
00:08:58.180If 80 percent of us just adopt that, that flattens the curve significantly more than maintaining a strict lockdown.
00:09:06.060Scientists told us, quote, we'll not only be able to flatten the curve, we'll be able to significantly reduce the spread of this virus and return to life as normal sooner rather than longer.
00:09:15.560Oh, OK, well, are we doing it at 80 percent?
00:13:45.200In Dallas, Texas, two election workers were fired for not wearing masks, even though Governor Abbott specifically made mask exemptions for poll workers.
00:13:56.380Restaurant owner in Florida actually cited by, get this, code enforcement officers.
00:15:16.580A member of the public school advisory board in Boyertown, Pennsylvania, also recently fired for committing the cardinal sin of questioning masks.
00:16:23.720And if it didn't match up with your claims, the scientific method said you should change your behavior.
00:16:32.780But now they clutch their pearls every time someone questions the science of things like wearing masks or even, dare I say it, climate change.
00:18:04.420Especially when the holy name of science is evoked to strip you of your rights, your livelihood, and God-given, constitutionally guaranteed freedom.
00:18:14.360Do not give in to being bludgeoned into submission.
00:18:18.040You're smart enough to make decisions regarding your own personal safety.
00:21:07.340Anyway, so there was a little shake-up at the Open Society Foundation, and he has decided to appoint, as a replacement for Patrick Gaspard, at the helm of his major foundation, the guy who was the president of Smartmatic voting machines.
00:26:05.280Yeah, but he told newspapers yesterday that aliens have been secretly interacting with the U.S. and Israeli government for years.
00:26:18.440He said at one point, Trump wanted to expose their existence, but the UFOs have asked not to publish that they are here because humanity isn't ready yet.
00:26:32.660Anyway, Trump, he says, well, on the verge of revealing, but the aliens of the Galactic Federation are saying, wait, let people calm down first.
00:26:41.260They don't want to start mass hysteria.
00:44:22.800If we could just get 80 percent of the people to wear masks, we'll flatten the curve and it'd be much more powerful than shutting things down.
00:45:59.920When you use Zotique Deep Correcting Serum, you get the silky smooth skin that's free from redness, acne and acne scars.
00:46:07.020And while you're at it, you'll get faster collagen production as well.
00:46:09.880Well, Zotique Deep Correcting Serum increases firmness and smoothness of your skin as well, which means you can say goodbye to those crow's feet and laugh lines.
00:46:18.100With its immediate effects, you're going to see results in 12 hours or less guaranteed.
00:46:22.680And of course, guarantee is it's the biggest thing, right?
00:46:25.560It's the biggest thing, because if you don't believe claims, you want to be able to get your money back if it doesn't work for you.
00:46:30.920Well, that's exactly what Chamonix does.
00:46:33.160100% of your money back if you're not satisfied.
00:49:58.020There's more than a thousandfold difference in mortality risk by age.
00:50:01.380So there's absolutely no public health reason to keep schools closed or keep the universities closed.
00:50:09.100The students should go to the classes for in-person teaching.
00:50:14.460And the problem is with all these lockdowns, there are enormous collateral damage.
00:50:19.480And that includes collateral damage on public health.
00:50:24.940The education is, schools are good, important not only for education, but also for physical and mental health of children and students and of social development.
00:50:34.800We have worse cardiovascular disease outcomes.
00:50:38.340We have less cancers, but that's not because there are fewer cancers.
00:50:43.200They're not detected and therefore they're not being properly treated.
00:50:45.860So somebody who might have lived another 15, 20 years may now die from, for example, cervical cancer in only three or four years because they didn't get the screening.
00:50:58.040And, of course, the mental health has been deteriorating.
00:51:01.680So there's all this collateral damage from the lockdowns.
00:51:05.720And one of the principles of public health is you can't just think of one disease.
00:51:09.980You have to think of everything combined and all those other diseases, all other public health.
00:51:15.960It feels as though the cure right now is worse than the disease.
00:51:25.420And the population is made to feel like it's their fault.
00:51:30.720And as these numbers come out and show that we're 95 percent compliant all over the country, and they told us that if we were 80 percent compliant, it would flatten the curve.
00:51:46.020And I don't think it's the American people not wearing masks.
00:51:50.020The problem is possibly do the masks even work?
00:51:54.140Yeah, so I think the population, the public, has done a heroic effort to try to follow the various public health advice that has been out there.
00:52:10.600The problem is that the public health advice has not been the best possible.
00:52:16.920So we would have had many fewer deaths, much less mortality, if we had followed a focused protection strategy outside in the Great Barrington Declaration.
00:52:29.960So for anybody who didn't follow the Great Barrington recommendation, you and two other scientists got together and you wrote this declaration.
00:52:41.500Then you opened it up for people to sign it.
00:52:43.840And, of course, now you're suspect, everybody's suspect, that we're near this, that you're just near quacks.
00:52:55.660So it starts from the premises that the mortality risk is more than a thousandfold difference between the oldest and the youngest.
00:53:03.160So this is not a dangerous disease for children or young adults.
00:53:07.280It is a dangerous disease for old and frail people.
00:53:10.420And, therefore, we need to do a better job protecting the old, while the young people, young adults, should be allowed to live their lives normally.
00:53:20.500We cannot eliminate the risk 100%, but we can mitigate it and minimize the risk and minimize mortality.
00:53:27.420So if I would give people the benefit of the doubt, I would look at, you know, the gathering of Event 201, where, you know, some of the best minds around the world got together and said, OK, so if there is some sort of pandemic, what do we do?
00:53:49.380And the idea was, for the first time, we can we can close everything.
00:53:54.300We can do it globally and close everything.
00:53:57.500And they thought that if you give them the benefit of the doubt, they thought that that would work.
00:54:04.700So why what is what is what is what what what's happening?
00:54:10.140Why are we denying things like herd mentality when we know that is is our herd immunity?
00:54:20.120When we know that that is the way our bodies work and viruses work.
00:54:24.620Yeah, herd immunity is is a scientific fact that's like gravity.
00:54:30.740So it doesn't make sense to talk about herd immunity strategy, because whatever we do, we will eventually reach herd immunity.
00:54:38.180So the key thing is to minimize mortality until we get there.
00:54:41.480And what we're doing now is we are protecting low risk professionals who can work from home, like lawyers or journalists like you or scientists like me, who don't need to be protected.
00:54:56.660At the same time, we have older people still in the workforce who work as a cab driver or a supermarket cashier or a janitor or in the in the meat processing industry who are being exposed, even though they're high risk.
00:55:12.560So that leads to excess mortality and more deaths than necessary.
00:55:19.680And we should protect older people, which we're not doing properly.
00:55:24.620So in my view, the lockdowns is the worst assault on the working class in half of centuries in segregation and they get no war.
00:55:34.600Is there anything to the locking down of restaurants with, you know, with with no outdoor, you know, service, et cetera, et cetera?
00:58:42.900And are you concerned at all about your positions?
00:58:45.680I'm very concerned about science in general, because science requires scientific discourse, open scientific discourse.
00:58:58.800And to ignore or silence scientists so that you don't have that is a bad thing for science.
00:59:05.640I'm very concerned about the scientific community.
00:59:08.840And when even if people are not fired, if there are some criticism like there has been of many scientists speaking up, that makes other people afraid to speak up.
00:59:18.280So it creates a fear in the scientific community.
00:59:20.480And I think that's extremely detrimental, both to science in general, but also, of course, to public health.
00:59:31.740You're just willing to speak out or do you think you guys are fairly alone on your concern about the way science is is being used right now?
00:59:41.100There are many people who are that concern and there's also many people who are concerned about the lockdown.
00:59:48.400So among the infectious disease technologies that I talk to personally, that I know personally, the majority is in favor of focus protection and against lockdowns.
01:00:00.400I think in the scientific community in general, most people who's outside of infectious disease technology, most people who speak out speak in favor of lockdowns.
01:00:11.640But among infectious disease technologies, the majority are against lockdowns and in favor of focus protection among those that I speak to personally.
01:00:21.240Dr. Martin Kulldorff, thank you for speaking out.
01:00:26.160Thank you for having the courage to speak out and we will keep you in our prayers.
01:00:55.120Somewhere deep in the heart of the automotive manufacturing plant in a room with all the shades pulled down, a little man with a big cigar has just pulled out his car's warranty and looked at the date.
01:01:09.740There's no computer in this room, just a button, big red button.
01:01:12.920It says post warranty car trouble and with a little evil laugh, the man with a cigar in the basement of the big auto manufacturing company laughs as he pushes it.
01:01:26.560Well, if you've already made the wise decision to get car shield, you're going to only be mildly irritated because with car shield, you're in good shape for all the covered repairs.
01:02:55.340And if you could be close up, you weren't, you weren't listening to us.
01:03:00.040You would see the little Nazi symbol with the eagle and the swastika on each side of the dial.
01:03:06.400This radio was a radio was a radio that would not allow anyone to pick up any other radio station other than the approved radio stations so they could censor to make sure that you never got any kind of outside information or anything different than what the government was telling you.
01:03:31.140As I'm listening to this doctor, I'm looking over at this radio, I'm looking over at this radio sitting here waiting to be fixed.
01:03:39.400And I think to myself, what is the difference?
01:03:43.020I mean, they didn't start with the radios.
01:03:47.560First, they just scared everybody into silence.
01:03:51.580They told everybody to sit down and shut up.
01:05:08.900I don't know about you, but the old-fashioned way of taking a baby's temperature.
01:05:15.460You know, I feel temperature taking should be free of buttage myself.
01:05:19.620Um, uh, but the butt apparently is also not really accurate with, uh, with babies.
01:05:25.180These days with coronavirus looking around, everyone getting their temperatures taken a lot more frequency, uh, frequently accurate, uh, temperatures really matter.
01:05:34.140Let me tell you about Tempantoss, the revolutionary, new, accurate way to keep tabs on temperatures.
01:05:39.700And it's really, it was designed for kids because it's so easy.
01:14:13.740Well, where is the due process on that one?
01:14:16.120Also, election officials in Wayne County, Michigan, ignored the requirements of Michigan law and denied poll watchers access to vote counting
01:14:26.260while other counties in Michigan followed the law.
01:14:29.340This violates the Equal Protection Clause.
01:14:32.140Now, this one is really important, and I don't know how the Supreme Court wouldn't take this on and rule exactly the same way.
01:19:18.960But there's a digital New Deal being made to decide what you think, say, and share with your friends.
01:19:25.620Those of us in journalism have to come to terms with the fact that free speech, a principle that we hold sacred, is being weaponized against the principles of journalism.
01:19:33.740Glenn reveals the terrifying new levels of censorship happening right now.
01:19:38.200Watch how digital dictators plan to kill free speech.
01:19:41.000There is a very dangerous misconception about free speech lurking on the left, including among the big tech elite.
01:19:59.660Which is the idea that true speech deserves protection as free speech.
01:22:12.720Now, you might remember the reports late last year about how China's communist government instructs TikTok
01:22:18.000to censor videos critical of the Chinese government.
01:22:21.460But other than that, there's nothing weird about a Chinese company that censors political content funding an American fact-checking company that also censors political content.
01:23:47.640Law and order means when the state of New York says your bar needs to be closed, your bar needs to be closed to protect people's health and safety.
01:25:04.960They have one-upped themselves in perfection.
01:25:08.180The H-MT stands for Heat and Massage Therapy, and it attaches right to the X-Chair to provide heat and massage technology right at your body's core.
01:25:17.100It helps increase the blood flow, muscle recovery, and maybe most importantly, it helps boost your energy.
01:25:23.260Right now, I feel like I should sound like this because this is what's happening on my back right now.
01:25:38.380That's the letter X, the word chair, beck.com.
01:25:41.680Last year, it was around this time my wife came into the office and she sat in my X-Chair, and she's like, why don't I have one of these at home?
01:30:25.760And how do you pay for New York's probably, in my back of the envelope, Matt, New York is probably about a hundred billion dollars in the hole.
01:30:33.220How are you going to pay for that with no taxes collected?
01:30:36.660Because everybody who pays taxes is leaving.
01:30:39.000And the people that are the worst off, the people like this bar owner that's just trying to keep their restaurant and their bar open,
01:31:46.620You're right about the constitution and you're also right about there has to be compensation.
01:31:51.900If the government takes away something of yours or destroys it, they have to have fair compensation for that.
01:32:00.560I I've been saying from the very beginning when they said, we're going to close down businesses for more than two weeks.
01:32:05.880I've said that this is a huge lawsuit just waiting to happen on behalf of all of the people who have lost business because they weren't allowed to open it up.
01:32:16.820But that brings me to, well, we'll just print more money.
01:32:21.100I mean, the value of the dollar is, you know, did you know that the federal reserve has printed more money?
01:32:29.120In fact, they've printed three quarters of all of the money they have printed in 107 years.
01:32:36.920They've printed three quarters of that amount recently.
01:32:43.280And, you know, I even look, I even called people at the federal reserve to talk about New York city just for my own benefit.
01:32:49.400So I could see that someone's thinking of solutions.
01:32:52.120All of their thinking is, Hey, you know, the demand for the dollar is strong, which gives us an opportunity to print.
01:32:59.280But it means that our children are going to be paying back money to the children of the wealthy Chinese people who are lending us the money.
01:33:08.780And now the federal reserve is lending it.
01:33:10.880We're not even borrowing it from the Chinese.
01:33:12.520Nobody will buy our our our debt anymore.
01:33:15.760It's now 100 percent financed by the federal reserve.
01:33:20.160I mean, did you know more since March money supply more than more than 11 trillion dollars has been added to the money supply?
01:33:40.640You're only benefiting the top one third of society when you do that.
01:33:44.460So it's not a progressive action at all.
01:33:46.980And what about these guys like the Staten Island bar owner who's worked for 40 years building up his bar, helping his community, serving his city and now being told that he's not a law and order when he just wants to feed his family?
01:34:02.260It's it's it's sad and it's disgusting.
01:34:04.460So let me ask you, because there's there's not been any talk on a very little talk on this, especially compared to last time.
01:34:12.340Bitcoin is almost I mean, it has broken its all time high, I believe, or it was within a couple of hundred dollars of breaking the all time high.
01:34:47.760I think one is even since since March, everybody breathed a huge sigh of relief that Bitcoin existed, because what other currency would you trust?
01:34:59.820The dollar is the most trusted currency in the world.
01:35:02.480And like I just said, they're printing, you know, maybe another 10 trillion dollars for all we know, like the Bitcoin, the supply cannot change.
01:35:39.780The last time Bitcoin reached a high, it was speculators, people wanting to day trade Bitcoin.
01:35:45.480Now it's people who are parking hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars in Bitcoin for safety because they don't trust the dollar and you can't find any more Bitcoin.
01:35:58.600So if supply is fixed, but demand is going up, then what does that mean?
01:36:03.820There's one hundred fifty trillion dollars of fiat currency around the world, but only three hundred billion dollars worth of Bitcoin.
01:36:10.180So if you think there's a reasonable chance that some percentage of currency will switch over to Bitcoin, which seems kind of obvious now, then Bitcoin is a very safe place to put money, not go crazy with it, but put some money there for safety.
01:36:30.840Because I think it was Goldman Sachs, it may have been Citibank, that came out and said they're expecting a 30 percent drop in the value of the U.S. dollar in the next year to 18 months.
01:36:44.180If they're printing eleven trillion dollars, it's going to be more than that.
01:37:45.340And so what's going to happen is when all your goods are made overseas, but we're paying in dollars where the value of the dollar is going down, everything's going to get more expensive.
01:37:55.620So a thousand dollar iPhone might be two thousand dollars.
01:37:59.520A drug that costs one hundred dollars might cost three hundred dollars.
01:39:04.260And a new generation has to pay back the children of all the people in the rest of the world.
01:39:09.420James Altucher, if you could hold on just a second, I want to talk to you about entrepreneurship in America because it's being stomped to death right now.
01:39:17.020And what entrepreneurs should be looking at and forward to James Altucher.
01:39:23.520He's he's got the James Altucher show, which has Tony Robbins and Peter Thiel and Coolio.
01:41:50.840So I tell you, James, I've talked about this.
01:41:52.960Stu is pointing this out this morning.
01:41:54.240I talked about this because of a digital revolution that was coming.
01:41:58.640I've been talking about it for five or six years and describing what was what it would look like if the transition was sudden and describing New York City.
01:42:26.240Well, you know, it's an important question because there's one hundred twenty eight million workers in the U.S., but fifty five million of them filed for unemployment insurance at some point in the past eight months.
01:42:40.800It shows there's no loyalty in corporations.
01:42:43.780So entrepreneurship has to be on the mind of many people, particularly young people.
01:42:48.140So start looking towards who benefits from everybody working remote or everybody moving from the first tier cities to the second tier cities.
01:42:58.840So obviously, online learning is going to benefit social media management for companies, helping companies pivot from offline to online, working on online newsletters, online courses.
01:43:13.380You know, anything relating to remote, relating to media being created remotely, all of these things are going to are going to boom.
01:43:23.780You know, app development, again, so, you know, helping companies with their social media management.
01:43:31.280This is a great time for young people who have been using social media since birth to now step up their skills, start off the way I did, creating an online agency and building a business to the many people of the older generation who need the help moving remote.
01:43:47.140This is a perfect time to be young and be an entrepreneur.
01:43:50.360James, it is always good to talk to you.
01:43:51.980Thank you so much for dropping by today.
01:44:23.960Yeah, well, when they're handing out Father of the Year awards this holiday season, it's probably going to be because I teach my boy the manly art of grilling.
01:47:28.360Law and order means when the state of New York says your bar needs to be closed, your bar needs to be closed to protect people's health and safety.
