Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey, welcome. It's a happy day because Stu is very sad. Anyway, let me tell you about your dog's
00:00:07.600 food. How healthy is your dog's food? If it's kibble food you're putting in the dishes, it's
00:00:12.480 probably not very healthy at all. Kibble food is sterilized. So everything, you know, all the good
00:00:17.180 stuff dies in the process and they do it so it can sit on a shelf in a store for two years.
00:00:23.200 Yummy. That sounds healthy. Rough greens is something you put on your dog's food. It was
00:00:28.700 something that was started by naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black and he found a way to put the
00:00:34.580 essential vitamins, nutrients and the probiotics and antioxidants back in to the dry kibble food.
00:00:39.920 You just sprinkle it on top. Try rough greens right now at rough greens, ruffgreens.com slash
00:00:45.580 Beck. That's roughgreens.com slash Beck or call 833-GLEN-33, G-L-E-N-N-33, 1-833-GLEN-33 or roughgreens.com
00:00:57.800 slash Beck. All right, you sick, twisted freak. It's Monday. Oh, I've got a few things to share.
00:01:06.760 National Radio Broadcast begins in a minute.
00:01:08.520 National Radio Broadcast.
00:01:25.080 National Radio Broadcast BeHEw-
00:01:29.360 National Radio Broadcast.
00:01:31.420 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:01:54.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:01:57.400 Hello, America. What a fine and happy day.
00:02:05.320 Yes, Philadelphia is burning down to the ground, but they would have burned it down to the ground either way.
00:02:10.320 So does it really matter?
00:02:12.200 The thing that matters to me is that Stu is very sad today that the Eagles lost.
00:02:20.040 So it's a personal victory for me.
00:02:23.260 We begin the program with a quick look at the Super Bowl, and then we have some new news on the FBI and the Secret Service and Biden.
00:02:35.320 No, no, no. No, nothing corrupt is going on.
00:02:38.480 Pay attention to the aliens from space that are attacking us with balloons.
00:02:44.500 Oh, my gosh. We begin there in 60 seconds.
00:02:48.720 So you're going through every day. Feel it like a zombie because you can't get good sleep.
00:02:53.580 Feel your eyelids drooping, your yawn, your rub, your eyes constantly.
00:02:58.520 I do that. I mainly do that because of hay fever here in Texas.
00:03:05.760 Oh, yeah. Oh, it's beautiful. It feels like you have rocks in your eyes.
00:03:09.800 Anyway, if you're doing it because you're sleepy, do what I do.
00:03:14.660 Try Relief Sleep.
00:03:16.980 It is from Relief Factor, the people that, you know, have that natural drug-free way for you to get out of pain.
00:03:23.900 This is a great sleep product.
00:03:27.360 My son does not sleep.
00:03:29.820 I swear to you, he's a vampire.
00:03:32.640 He does not sleep.
00:03:33.620 So we've tried melatonin and everything else.
00:03:36.920 I mean, you know, sure, some would say as a smaller kid, somebody might have said a little cup of Benadryl.
00:03:44.560 But, I mean, as my family, we used to have what was called as babies, the whiskey nipple.
00:03:51.220 Okay, I mean, hey, Grandma, Glenn's an alcoholic.
00:03:56.940 No problem there.
00:03:58.320 Anyway, if you'd like a natural way to fall asleep, get $20.
00:04:03.540 We'll get you the feeling of complete relaxation and contentment as you drift away into dreamland.
00:04:09.600 It is all natural, so it's not going to whack you out.
00:04:12.140 Unleash the power of great sleep by calling 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:16.260 800-4-RELIEF.
00:04:18.840 It's relieffactor.com.
00:04:21.200 Okay, well, good news, good news for you.
00:04:25.940 We're finally getting down to the bottom of it.
00:04:27.980 CNN is reporting now on the truth behind the He Gets Us ads.
00:04:37.720 Yeah.
00:04:38.240 I don't know about you, but when that He Gets Us ad, I was like, Jesus on the Super Bowl in America?
00:04:48.680 What is happening?
00:04:52.700 He gets us.
00:04:54.600 They're promoting Jesus.
00:04:56.360 It's completely out of control.
00:04:59.860 Yeah, I'll give that to you here in just a little while.
00:05:02.160 Also, another unidentified object was shot down over the Great Lakes.
00:05:10.280 Yes, this is the third time we've done it in three days.
00:05:16.520 Yeah.
00:05:17.020 Today, will the aliens come in the big, big balloon?
00:05:23.360 I mean, they're all singing, up, up and away in our alien balloon.
00:05:29.500 You really think that they came from another planet and they're using a balloon?
00:05:39.640 Here's the story from the New York Post.
00:05:41.980 U.S. fighter jets shot down an unidentified object over Lake Huron on Sunday, making it the third time such action was taken in as many days.
00:05:51.360 And coming on the heels of last week's China spy balloon saga.
00:05:55.680 Oh, the spy balloon.
00:05:57.680 But I thought that was completely innocent.
00:06:00.020 In fact, can we please play that Joe Biden clip where he was, he's doing an interview and he so eloquently explains how it is just no threat.
00:06:11.840 Listen.
00:06:12.560 Wasn't it a major security breach for the United States?
00:06:16.740 It's just the fact that the balloon came into the airspace and flew over the country for so many days.
00:06:22.080 No, look, the total amount of intelligence gatherings going on by every country around the world is overwhelming.
00:06:30.720 Yes, Spector.
00:06:31.420 And the idea that a balloon could traverse, break American airspace.
00:06:37.020 Right.
00:06:37.280 Anyway, it's not a major breach.
00:06:44.280 Who doesn't feel better?
00:06:46.440 Our commander in chief in total command there.
00:06:50.360 It's, you know, whatever.
00:06:53.280 So I feel better about that.
00:06:55.360 Now, it was an octagonal object and it was tracked by radar over Montana Saturday, but then it began to fly in proximity to sensitive Department of Defense sites.
00:07:11.500 Who knew we even had those?
00:07:13.460 They said it was not a kinetic military threat or, you know, threat to anything on the ground, but it was a safety hazard and a threat due to its potential surveillance capabilities.
00:07:28.560 OK, the Chinese balloon had none of that, none of that.
00:07:34.460 The Air Force officials say the latest three objects in the airspace are different, however, from the Chinese spy balloon.
00:07:44.640 Yeah, yeah, they're different.
00:07:47.100 We're called this according to an Air Force general telling reporters we're calling them objects and not balloons for a reason.
00:07:59.480 Ooh, they're objects like unidentified flying objects.
00:08:08.340 Well, here's the reason they're calling them that.
00:08:12.780 So President Biden can look tough on balloons, but they're not balloons.
00:08:17.460 I mean, you know.
00:08:19.840 It was my birthday over the weekend and there were a lot of unidentified objects up by the ceiling of my house.
00:08:28.580 I shot them all down.
00:08:30.060 I took out my gun and I shot them all out of the sky because they were hovering over sensitive sites in my house, mainly the plate of meat.
00:08:43.200 And God only knows.
00:08:45.680 God only knows.
00:08:47.700 So we got that going for us now.
00:08:49.600 Now, just to give you a little extra trust, you know, for people in Washington.
00:08:55.500 By the way, did you see that I'm on the government list of of disinformation?
00:09:04.860 I'm a purveyor of disinformation.
00:09:06.920 We're going to get into this a little later.
00:09:08.640 I found this interesting because I thought, yeah, well, it was probably the ESG thing.
00:09:13.880 You know, the Great Reset or, you know, you know, the World Economic Forum has any power to, quote, infiltrate, you know, cabinets, you know, all around the world.
00:09:28.880 It was probably that or or or it might have been all the way back to Benghazi.
00:09:35.040 You know, when I told you what really happened and how that was going to lead to a caliphate, which it of course didn't.
00:09:45.360 ISIS.
00:09:46.440 Sure, they declared it, but it was not.
00:09:48.060 That's a conspiracy theory.
00:09:50.700 OK.
00:09:51.060 Or the fact that our Federal Reserve is just printing money and you're going to have inflation, you know, what a dangerous disinformation puppet.
00:10:03.860 I am anyway, we can trust the government.
00:10:10.020 We have a story now from Judicial Watch.
00:10:13.200 They have received the records from the Secret Service related to the investigation of Hunter Biden's gun, which was thrown into a dumpster, you know, right across the street from a high school.
00:10:24.740 But no big deal.
00:10:26.660 These new records suggest that maybe perhaps we shouldn't take a face value, a face value, the Secret Service denial that it wasn't involved in the Hunter Biden gun cover up.
00:10:42.320 What?
00:10:43.120 Wait a minute.
00:10:45.200 A federal agency possibly helping out the president of the United States, a Democrat and covering what?
00:10:56.800 Records show agency officials discussing media reports of its alleged involvement with one finding it, quote, odd.
00:11:05.400 So there's a Secret Service guy writing to another Secret Service guy.
00:11:10.380 Don't you think this is odd that we're involved in this investigation?
00:11:15.400 Yeah.
00:11:16.100 Yeah.
00:11:16.860 And this is at a time when, quote, Joe and Hunter were not receiving Secret Service protection.
00:11:23.860 Uh-huh.
00:11:24.700 Uh-huh.
00:11:25.340 Another official responded.
00:11:26.640 Maybe, maybe, maybe, one Secret Service official says to another, maybe we were asked for a favor.
00:11:35.460 Huh.
00:11:36.620 Now, I can't imagine that happening at all.
00:11:41.120 The records show the agency alerted the Biden White House and crafted a public statement insisting it had no involvement in this alleged incident.
00:11:53.100 In September 2022, Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act, a FOIA lawsuit, for the records and communication about the reported purchase, possession, and disposal of a firearm owned by Hunter Biden found in a Delaware dumpster.
00:12:10.100 The Judicial Watch reported, December 22, that Secret Service repeatedly had changed its position on whether or not it was in possession of records related to the investigation.
00:12:25.220 Where did we put those records?
00:12:27.200 No, we threw them out.
00:12:28.240 Are you sure?
00:12:28.900 We might have thrown them out.
00:12:30.060 Or I have them in another pocket in another suit.
00:12:32.640 The newly obtained records show that on October 29, 2020, a person whose name is redacted emails a Secret Service official in the Protective Intelligence and Assessment Division with a link to a Blaze article published earlier that day.
00:12:53.160 Now, the good news is, not only is Glenn Beck dot com on the misinformation list, the official government misinformation list, but you should know the Blaze dot com is on that list as well.
00:13:12.280 And here's probably why the Secret Service official sent a link to a Blaze article that was published earlier that day reporting that Hallie Biden had taken a handgun owned by Hunter Biden in October 2018 and thrown it into a trash bin.
00:13:33.800 The official then forwards the article to another official in the Secret Service.
00:13:38.740 That official's name also has been redacted.
00:13:42.280 But later comments in the chain.
00:13:45.320 Oh, dear.
00:13:47.720 Yeah.
00:13:48.680 Yeah.
00:13:49.480 Oh, dear.
00:13:50.800 Like, oh, dear me.
00:13:52.880 Right.
00:13:53.600 Like you say that when you're not involved.
00:13:56.180 Right.
00:13:56.820 Don't you?
00:13:58.300 After being forwarded the same Blaze article, an unidentified protective intelligence research specialist responds to his colleagues.
00:14:08.060 It's kind of odd that we're involved in the missing gun investigation when neither Hunter or Joe are receiving U.S.
00:14:16.620 Secret Service protection at the time.
00:14:19.980 Dot, dot, dot.
00:14:21.940 H.
00:14:22.340 M.
00:14:22.840 M.
00:14:23.080 M.
00:14:23.480 Otherwise known as.
00:14:24.920 Hmm.
00:14:25.440 To which another Secret Service official replies, maybe we were asked for a favor.
00:14:33.060 But remember, they're not involved in any of this.
00:14:38.700 Senior Secret Service officials who names were discovered in the record were also notified of the Blaze article.
00:14:45.580 So they read us.
00:14:47.600 They really, really read us.
00:14:49.600 I feel so, so happy about that.
00:14:53.420 I mean, I read this article today and I was like, yeah, Lord, thank you for telling me to do the insane thing and and start the Blaze.
00:15:03.980 Maybe it was just for this.
00:15:08.720 Ah, they include the people that got the email, James Henry, then special agent in charge of Philadelphia field office, Michael Ambrosio, assistant director of the U.S.
00:15:19.980 Secret Service, the Stephen Stanford, the then deputy assistant director of the Secret Service, Louenzo Newsom, the third then deputy director, Douglas Henderson, deputy assistant director.
00:15:33.960 And office of investigations for the Secret Service.
00:15:36.860 So for a for a group of people that was just not involved at all, it seems as though.
00:15:44.780 A lot of people were interested in this story in a response to a February 24th, 2021 inquiry from Politico regarding the Secret Service involvement in the investigation.
00:15:58.780 The communications department asked for more information and documentation.
00:16:04.580 And the Politico writer says, sure thing.
00:16:08.420 Sure thing.
00:16:09.020 Can you get that for us?
00:16:10.980 Agents visited StarQuest shooters and survival supply and asked to take protection possession of the paperwork Hunter had filled out to purchase his gun there.
00:16:22.440 The FBI seemed to have some involvement in that investigation, too.
00:16:27.800 Well, when he asked that, they immediately said, I don't know what you're talking about.
00:16:33.980 Now, unfortunately, the gun store specifically remembers, and I believe they have surveillance tape, you know, in a gun store.
00:16:48.280 They specifically remember a visit from the FBI and the Secret Service.
00:16:54.880 And they turned over that documentation.
00:16:58.560 Isn't it weird?
00:16:59.840 But there's so much more.
00:17:03.300 Back in 60 seconds.
00:17:06.920 All right.
00:17:07.540 Let me tell you about Rough Greens.
00:17:09.240 Meet naturopathic Dr. Dennis Black.
00:17:11.680 Hello, Dennis.
00:17:13.520 I understand that you are the guy who came up with Rough Greens.
00:17:17.520 Yeah.
00:17:18.040 Yeah, I did.
00:17:19.020 Rough Greens.
00:17:20.120 You know, it's good.
00:17:21.380 It's good stuff.
00:17:22.440 Now, that doesn't sound very technical.
00:17:24.200 Well, I don't want to get all doctory with you.
00:17:26.440 OK, thank you.
00:17:27.200 So he put in probiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, all that stuff.
00:17:33.200 It's healthy for your dog.
00:17:35.340 If it's healthy, it's in Rough Greens, most likely.
00:17:38.400 And most dogs will love it and go crazy for it.
00:17:41.000 Now, here's what I want you to do.
00:17:42.040 I want you to go to Rough Greens.
00:17:43.240 R-U-F-F-Greens dot com slash Beck.
00:17:46.020 They're going to give you a free trial bag.
00:17:48.040 OK, just for it's a couple of days worth.
00:17:50.100 You sprinkle on your dog's food.
00:17:51.340 And if they like it as much as Uno does, you're going to be amazed just how they wolf this stuff down.
00:17:58.120 Then you'll get the full bag.
00:18:00.080 And after you get the full bag, you just watch the changes in your dogs over the coming months.
00:18:05.140 833-G-L-E-N-N 33.
00:18:07.320 833-G-L-E-N 33.
00:18:08.860 Or R-U-F-F-Greens dot com.
00:18:11.300 That's Rough Greens dot com.
00:18:14.120 And you can go there now.
00:18:15.640 Rough Greens dot com slash Beck.
00:18:17.580 Ten seconds.
00:18:18.180 Station ID.
00:18:18.660 Well, this story goes on and on.
00:18:32.120 You can get it by going to Judicial Watch if you'd like.
00:18:35.640 Or if you get my free email newsletter.
00:18:38.780 It's one of the main stories today.
00:18:41.140 The Hunter Biden gun update.
00:18:43.840 Gee, it seems as though there might be some corruption going on in Washington.
00:18:52.440 Strange.
00:18:53.160 Oh, by the way, one more thing that seems to indicate some corruption.
00:18:58.200 The National Archives coordinated with President Biden's attorneys for the discrete collection of classified documents.
00:19:09.400 Now, remember, they found them at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C.
00:19:15.140 Now, the Penn Biden Center, you will know because we've done episodes on TV about China and their influence on politicians and also on universities.
00:19:29.140 Penn Biden Center.
00:19:30.380 Wow.
00:19:31.000 A lot of Chinese cash there.
00:19:33.100 But, hey, nothing to see there.
00:19:36.820 They're not involved at all.
00:19:38.640 And that's where a lot of these top secret documents were hanging out.
00:19:43.220 However, we find out now that they also ship some boxes to the Boston office.
00:19:52.320 So we know he had top secret documents at the Penn Center and then he had that one.
00:19:57.740 But it was next to his Corvette, which nobody could even get close to.
00:20:02.000 I mean, that thing is tripwired with alarms like you look into somebody's garage.
00:20:07.660 Sure.
00:20:07.760 They have a Sears garage door opener that pretty much anyone could hack.
00:20:12.380 But, you know, you look in there and you're like, oh, it's a Corvette.
00:20:15.800 That's a classic Corvette.
00:20:17.160 That's got to be the safest place in the world.
00:20:19.460 Sure.
00:20:19.600 They found them there and it is vacation home.
00:20:21.740 But now we also know that they grabbed a bunch of these documents and then sent them up to the Boston office, which is another completely safe place.
00:20:35.180 You know, any place in Boston is safe for classified documents.
00:20:41.040 Anyway, apparently the the archivist, who's such a stickler on these things, wasn't such a stickler on this.
00:20:50.640 They were like, hey, can we just come over to Boston?
00:20:52.940 I hear some are in Boston.
00:20:54.920 Can we just pick them up?
00:20:56.360 We'll just bring them over to the the Kennedy, you know, political whatever bullcrap at Harvard.
00:21:04.280 And we'll just keep them there for a while.
00:21:07.360 Oh, OK.
00:21:08.340 Well, maybe the students could learn from them.
00:21:11.120 Oh, I wonder if they have any foreign students over there.
00:21:14.400 Ah, well, let's not let's not hope.
00:21:16.960 By the way, one other thing that I want to give to you here is apparently, you know, that big lump that was on John Fetterman's neck.
00:21:26.580 It's not there anymore.
00:21:28.060 So he's good.
00:21:29.460 He's good.
00:21:30.180 Well, not exactly good.
00:21:32.340 You know, he was in the hospital because they thought, oh, he might have had another stroke.
00:21:37.100 Apparently, he didn't.
00:21:38.140 He's back to work today.
00:21:39.480 But the New York Times has just now this is going to come as a shock to you.
00:21:44.420 The New York Times, which said he was fine.
00:21:47.480 New York Times reporting now that Fetterman, quote, has been left with a serious mental health issue, mental health issue and cannot understand often the words that others are saying to him as a result of the stroke.
00:22:06.200 It also says that, according to the New York Times now, that he struggles significantly worse when he's under any kind of stress.
00:22:19.440 The Times are now saying that he says that it's like trying to make out the muffled voice of the teacher in a Peanuts cartoon where words could never be deciphered.

00:24:21.520 It could happen.

00:24:23.620 Some say this might just be a ruse.
00:24:26.000 I think aliens are attacking us by using balloons, but maybe that's just me.
00:24:33.260 Have you not seen Stephen King?
00:24:35.120 I want to introduce you to somebody.
00:24:37.180 His name is Kyle Serafin.
00:24:38.880 He has been indefinitely suspended as an FBI special agent.
00:24:46.180 He's also a U.S. Air Force veteran.
00:24:48.420 He was working counterintelligence investigations for about two years, and then he went to a specialty surveillance team.
00:24:57.660 After about three years on the team, including time as assistant and primary leader, he transferred to Las Cruces, Mexico, to work criminal cases.
00:25:08.680 Now, during that time, he provided a number of protected disclosures to the House and Senate.
00:25:17.000 He was a whistleblower.
00:25:18.460 Then he had his suspension in April 22, and then his security clearance in June 22 went away.
00:25:27.580 He is a Catholic, a practicing Catholic, and here's what led to his suspension.
00:25:33.060 His pro-life stance, his belief in the oath of office led him to refuse the COVID-19 jab and blowing the whistle on the FBI's misuse of resources to target parents protesting school board meetings.
00:25:47.080 Also, he blew the whistle, disclosing sexual misconduct by senior FBI management, the abuse of the FISA authority by the FBI.
00:25:59.540 There's so many things.
00:26:01.900 Documents showing the FBI was participating in election interference under the guise of policy or policing misinformation, blah, blah, blah.
00:26:11.040 So he has just blown the whistle on something else now.
00:26:14.920 This is something we covered on Friday.
00:26:17.080 The FBI's Richmond Division would like to protect the people in Virginia from the threat of white supremacists in the forms, and I'm not making this up, in the form of Roman Catholic parishioners that prefer the Latin Mass.
00:26:36.400 Yes, there, I said it.
00:26:37.960 As ugly as it is, I said it.
00:26:42.480 Kyle is with us now.
00:26:44.020 Kyle Serafin, welcome.
00:26:45.060 Glenn, thanks so much.
00:26:47.320 That was a very kind intro.
00:26:48.560 Well, I just, I had to get the ugly truth out there, Kyle.
00:26:53.120 So, Federal Whistleblower, thank you for that, and thank you for the service that you did do as an FBI agent.
00:27:01.840 So, are you a Catholic?
00:27:04.180 I am.
00:27:04.860 You are a Catholic.
00:27:05.460 I certainly am.
00:27:06.060 Are you an extremist?
00:27:09.060 I think the FBI would think so at this point.
00:27:11.280 Yeah, I think so too.
00:27:12.160 I'm a constitutional, yeah, I'm a constitutional extremist.
00:27:14.760 I think that the government should stay out of our First Amendment rights and should stay off our Second Amendment rights and should get a search warrant if they want to go and search us under the Fourth Amendment.
00:27:22.260 I mean, it goes down the list.
00:27:23.760 I'm a Bill of Rights extremist, and I just think the government should stay in its own lane.
00:27:28.060 Yeah, but do you want the Mass in Latin?
00:27:32.660 Do you want the Catholic?
00:27:33.540 I love the, yeah, it's not easy to find where I am, actually.
00:27:36.400 I'm in kind of a remote part of Arizona at the moment, but I love the Latin Mass.
00:27:39.960 I actually grew up learning Latin.
00:27:41.740 I went to Cistercian schools and had a couple years of that, and then I went to Jesuit schools and had four more years of Latin, and it's a beautiful ceremony.
00:27:48.900 So, why not?
00:27:50.640 All right.
00:27:51.280 Well, it sounds extreme to me.
00:27:52.920 So, Kyle, they are, it appears in the information that you leaked to Congress, it appears as though they are now infiltrating traditional Catholic places of worship and, I guess, Catholic traditional clubs, or I don't know what they have.
00:28:18.960 But they're actually targeting and infiltrating now to find these rebels.
00:28:29.020 That's right.
00:28:29.760 Well, so what the document showed, and this was an intelligence product coming out of Richmond's field office, as you noted, it's an intelligence analyst's recommendation that there are, quote-unquote, mitigation opportunities using source recruitment within the church to ward off these white supremacists, what they call racially motivated violent extremists.
00:28:49.540 And by doing something like that, they're suggesting source recruitment within the church, 100%.
00:28:54.880 Now, to the FBI's credit, and maybe also to its condemnation, it withdrew this document, or at least they've said that publicly to the number of news sources that have reached out to them.
00:29:04.260 They said, well, this was not meeting our exacting standards.
00:29:06.940 Here's the thing.
00:29:09.800 It was sourced under three different publicly available sources.
00:29:13.560 Number one, the Southern Poverty Law Center, which we all know is probably actually a hate group.
00:29:17.700 And then secondarily, they've got the Atlantic, that bastion of right-wing conservatism, and the Salon.com magazine, which had two hit pieces basically suggesting that Milo Yiannopoulos represents the views of the Catholic Church.
00:29:30.180 I don't think that's the case as a Catholic, but I'm open to being corrected, of course.
00:29:33.980 Sure.
00:29:34.660 Now, let me ask you, Kyle.
00:29:36.540 I'm not sure if you're familiar with Alexander Dugan, but he is from Russia.
00:29:42.820 He is one of the main brains.
00:29:44.640 He was the brain behind Crimea, the invasion and everything there.
00:29:48.220 And he is what's called a traditionalist.
00:29:50.780 He's not a Catholic.
00:29:51.740 He is a traditionalist with a capital T, not small T.
00:29:55.640 And there is a traditionalist movement, capital T, that is very dangerous.
00:30:02.680 And it's pushed by Dugan and financed by many Russians.
00:30:09.060 And it is here in America.
00:30:10.620 And it has infiltrated many churches, not necessarily the Catholics, but many churches have been infiltrated by this.
00:30:21.100 And is there any chance that that's the traditionalism that they're talking about?
00:30:28.620 I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt.
00:30:30.420 Well, you can look at the analyst's note, and the analyst basically says we're talking about Catholics here that sort of reject the post-Vatican II Council reforms, which is to move the mass into the vernacular and to be more accepting of other world religions.
00:30:45.320 And that there's, you know, this sort of concern that they put in, quote, with a lower case T, traditionalist Catholics, you know, have the potential of being recruited to ideologies like white supremacy and anti-Semitism and some other things.
00:30:57.060 So it'd be nice if we could give them the benefit.
00:30:58.840 But they don't seem to deserve it in this case, at least this particular write-up.
00:31:02.760 So can I ask you, Kyle, is this the – I just had this discussion with somebody over at the house last night at the Super Bowl.
00:31:10.720 It's always fun at my house.
00:31:11.820 And somebody said, you know, the stuff going on with the FBI, I don't trust the FBI at all as an agency, but do you think it's all the way down to the individual agents?
00:31:26.440 And my guess is no, that the local agents are pretty good.
00:31:32.180 This poison's coming from Washington, but I don't know.
00:31:35.420 Can you give light on that?
00:31:38.600 It's a little bit of both.
00:31:40.160 So I've got a little podcast.
00:31:42.120 I did an interview last night with Mark Hout, and so he was famously arrested by 20-plus agents and some state troopers in Pennsylvania for protesting outside of an abortion clinic and defending his son.
00:31:52.480 Pretty much a pretty standard fare in America.
00:31:54.840 If you come up and say a bunch of horrible things in front of a 12-year-old, if you got shoved to the ground, that's probably a pretty light punishment, and it's a pretty reasonable action I think most people would agree with.
00:32:04.180 And so he had agents at all levels.
00:32:07.060 And the fact of the matter is that when you have agents that are given an opportunity to carry out a search warrant or arrest warrant, and they see the probable cause statement, and they're okay with what was said about people like Mark.
00:32:17.700 Mm-hmm.
00:32:47.700 A couple of Catholic ladies who had an ultrasound trailer who tried to talk women out of aborting their babies.
00:32:52.520 Oh, my God.
00:32:53.060 And they did an interview on that.
00:32:55.080 So these are GS-13 level.
00:32:56.340 This is what we call the BRIC agent level or what people often call rank and file.
00:33:00.400 You know, they went out there and did that.
00:33:02.140 And why did they do it?
00:33:02.920 They did it because the field office had stated that the number three counterterrorism priority in the state of New Mexico, like I said, hundreds of miles of the Mexican border and cartels left and right, the number three national security priority was enforcement of the FACE Act, which is this free access to clinics piece.
00:33:19.140 So I don't know that you can say that it's just Washington.
00:33:22.540 I think a lot of people are willing to put their head down and do their job and bury themselves in work, but they're not willing to step up and go, you know, this doesn't fit what I signed up for, and this is really antithetical to the oath that I swore.
00:33:34.320 So I'm not going to do that thing that you just asked and then face whatever those consequences are.
00:33:38.580 I felt that way about the COVID shots.
00:33:40.660 I felt like they really rooted out and found sort of a compliance opportunity, and they found everybody that was not willing to comply.
00:33:46.160 There's about 3,000 people in the Bureau, and now they're slowly targeting them.
00:33:49.580 And every whistleblower that I've dealt with is an unvaccinated Christian, for whatever that's worth, unvaccinated against COVID.
00:33:54.920 Wow.
00:33:56.500 Have you read Ordinary Men, the book?
00:34:00.620 I can't say that I have.
00:34:01.460 Okay, so it's about the police battalion, 101.
00:34:08.500 I've been briefed on this by my buddies who have read the book.
00:34:11.520 Oh, you need to read it.
00:34:13.020 Every law enforcement or concerned citizen should read this.
00:34:18.700 It's about what happened in Poland in 1942, one of the spectacular battalions of police, and they were turned internally quickly overnight, and they became more ruthless than the SS.
00:34:35.220 And this book is just a study that was done after the war.
00:34:39.520 How did that happen?
00:34:41.220 And I think that's happening to our FBI right now.
00:34:45.000 And you just, you know, small little steps, and you just keep going with it, even though you're like, I don't think this feels right.
00:34:52.880 You just keep going.
00:34:53.880 That's right.
00:34:54.740 Yeah, my first public interview I did with Dan Bongino, and there's a poignant piece at the end of the second hour, which is a long interview to do with anybody.
00:35:02.680 But we talked about the FBI trip to the Holocaust Museum, and all agents are required, or at least they were.
00:35:08.540 There's some rumor that they may have actually discontinued this trip.
00:35:11.260 But there's a Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C.
00:35:13.780 We all go through and walk it, and they have a very particular law enforcement-only program.
00:35:17.920 And it's meant for any law enforcement at any level, state, federal, local, doesn't matter.
00:35:21.840 The whole point of it is that if you get federal officials, you get your state, your local, and your federal law enforcement, and usually the military as well, on board with whatever it is you're doing, then you can carry out all kinds of atrocities.
00:35:32.700 But every single level there has the opportunity to throw that flag and say, no, this is wrong, this is immoral, this is unjust, and I'm not going to participate.
00:35:40.980 And when that happens, you put things like the genocidal actions that happened in the Holocaust, you freeze it in its tracks.
00:35:46.840 That's the goal of that trip is to teach us that that is an opportunity to say no.
00:35:52.560 And what we saw in 2020 and 2021 was that a lot of people knew things were wrong, and my own supervisor was a great example.
00:35:59.180 He said, I believe that what you're doing is correct, and I believe in your right to refuse this vaccine shot, and yet I have a mortgage, I have alimony, I've got to pay my ex-wife, and I can't agree with you, so do what you're told.
00:36:11.120 And the answer was, well, no, I'm not going to do that.
00:36:13.460 Wow.
00:36:14.920 So I've got about a minute left.
00:36:17.380 Are we able to fix this, or do we have to turn it on or turn it off and turn it back on again and reboot the entire system?
00:36:27.720 I think the latter.
00:36:29.180 As you probably know, I'm friends with Stephen Friend in Florida, and we talk about this all the time, but I don't think that you can save the agency without – there's only one narrow path.
00:36:39.440 You could remove the domestic intelligence mission and remove sort of the intelligence component.
00:36:43.840 But in reality, so many people are compromised because of their own decisions at this point in the last two years, maybe three years, that they've really tipped their own hand, and they have to doubt themselves.
00:36:53.660 Like, they haven't – they've walked over probably their own personal line in the sand and walked into territory that is antithetical to their own oath, and they probably feel it.
00:37:02.580 And I don't know that you can reboot an agency that easily.
00:37:04.800 So, you know, I don't know if Congress has the stones to do so, but that should be what's on the table, discussing a total teardown and either a renovation or maybe just move the mission and build it somewhere else with a brand that's not been so corroded.
00:37:16.420 Well, I will tell you that I've talked to several people in Washington, and the ones that I know and respect are in for a reboot.
00:37:25.040 Whether all the rest of the weasels will do it or not, I don't know.
00:37:28.960 Thank you.
00:37:29.700 Thank you so much, Kyle.
00:37:30.880 Again, thank you for your service.
00:37:33.300 Thank you for any, any FBI or anybody in the federal government that's willing to put their neck out and be a whistleblower.
00:37:42.120 You will be remembered kindly in history.
00:37:45.180 Kyle, thank you.
00:37:46.420 Thanks, Glenn.

00:37:47.980 You bet.

00:39:06.280 Well, there was a very disturbing commercial last night during the Super Bowl.
00:39:19.600 You know, everybody's humping and grinding and stuff.
00:39:23.340 And then this Jesus thing comes on.
00:39:26.020 CNN is here to expose the He Gets Us campaign.
00:39:31.400 Here it is.
00:39:31.920 Showing pictures of people being nice to each other.
00:39:41.100 Oh, my God.
00:39:43.520 Look at this.
00:39:46.800 These people are talking.
00:39:50.540 Now they're starting to yell at each other.
00:39:53.440 Oh, my God.
00:39:55.100 Look at this.
00:39:55.780 All these people protesting.
00:39:58.480 Politicians yelling at each other.
00:40:00.500 Oh, people on a plane rushing to get out.
00:40:04.340 Old people yelling at young people.
00:40:07.140 Young people only yelling at old people.
00:40:09.400 People of different color arguing.
00:40:12.320 Oh, my gosh.
00:40:14.000 What is happening?
00:40:20.420 Jesus loved the people we hate.
00:40:22.840 He gets us.
00:40:25.800 Now, I don't know how that got past the censors.
00:40:32.080 This is disturbing.
00:40:34.940 Preaching love.
00:40:36.560 So it's part of a $100 million media investment.
00:40:40.920 And it is, oh, the campaign, quote, is arresting.
00:40:47.260 I think that's code language to the FBI.
00:40:51.200 Yeah.
00:40:52.060 Came from a bunch of philanthropists who believe that we should probably start listening to Jesus.
00:40:59.100 Um, and it's what's weird is the people, a lot of Christians believe it's a woke campaign.
00:41:07.200 And the left believes it's a dangerous Jesus campaign.
00:41:12.280 So it's working out well.
00:41:14.520 It's working.
00:41:14.980 We're listening like Jesus did.
00:41:17.360 The Glenn Beck Program.
00:41:18.880 Already, Philadelphia is hell.
00:41:22.800 Uh, and I say that just as somebody who lived there, so I know.
00:41:26.300 Um, but it's, it's, it's tragic, tragic, tragically sad.
00:41:30.120 So, um, coming up in, uh, just a minute, we have, uh, one of the guys who broke the story
00:41:35.880 about the, uh, disinformation that the government is, uh, is giving on, uh, disinformation.
00:41:45.280 Um, they've put, uh, glennbeck.com, uh, and also blaze, uh, dot com as, uh, false and misleading.
00:41:56.280 So they're ones that really social media should watch.
00:42:00.480 And maybe you shouldn't watch as much because we're on the naughty list.
00:42:04.920 It's so naughty.
00:42:06.540 We're going to get coal, not coal.
00:42:09.880 That's CO2.
00:42:11.960 Why do you want to kill the earth, Santa?
00:42:15.280 We're going to survive.
00:42:41.960 Stand up, stand, and hold the light
00:42:47.500 It's a new day, I'm trying to raise
00:42:52.840 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:43:03.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:06.320 Oh, hello, America.
00:43:09.180 I'm in a good mood.
00:43:10.140 Not just because Kansas City won, but because the Eagles lost.
00:43:16.260 And that is going to make Stu very, very sad.
00:43:20.100 And he returns tomorrow.
00:43:22.500 And gosh, I'd hate to rub salt in the wound,
00:43:26.320 but I think I just might have to.
00:43:29.360 Congratulations to Kansas City.
00:43:32.440 Let me bring you to a very important journalist,
00:43:38.420 what works for the Washington Examiner,
00:43:41.240 which if you don't read the Washington Examiner, you should read that every day.
00:43:44.960 Gabe Kaminsky is an investigative reporter.
00:43:47.380 And he did some digging into this foreign group that is making all kinds of cash,
00:44:00.120 secretly blacklisting people like me.
00:44:05.760 Glenn Beck.com, Blaze.com,
00:44:09.440 and a whole host of others working to get people to cancel all of the commercials.
00:44:17.560 So then we go out of business.
00:44:20.140 And you know what?
00:44:21.800 They're doing a pretty terrible job because business is booming right now.
00:44:26.820 Of course, I can't say the same for traditional media.
00:44:30.740 And we're doing it without a campaign because they're doing it to themselves.
00:44:37.940 Gabe Kaminsky joins us in 60 seconds.
00:44:42.300 All right.
00:44:43.220 I want to talk to you a little bit about pre-born.
00:44:45.460 Tomorrow is Valentine's Day,
00:44:47.520 and that should get you thinking about hearts and sweetness
00:44:51.780 and little cherub-looking angels and cherub-looking angels.
00:44:56.400 Ah, maybe make you think of babies.
00:45:01.580 Before my son was born,
00:45:05.360 Tanya and I tried to have a baby, really, for a long time.
00:45:09.700 And there is nothing more fun than, you know,
00:45:12.320 two years into trying and you're like,
00:45:14.840 hurry up, I got to put my legs up by 2 p.m.
00:45:18.480 Oh my gosh, it's so romantic.
00:45:20.460 Anyway, we adopted Rafe,
00:45:24.420 and his mother was a teenage girl who could have aborted the baby,
00:45:30.500 but she didn't.
00:45:32.120 God bless her, she didn't.
00:45:33.640 And she's a superhero for doing that.
00:45:36.700 Saving babies.
00:45:38.020 There's nothing better than saving babies.
00:45:40.640 I can't imagine my world without my son.
00:45:43.840 Well, how many babies have been killed?
00:45:46.300 How many babies are not being born?
00:45:48.460 Just today, pre-born is a system of clinics around the country,
00:45:55.040 and they're in some of the biggest abortion centers.
00:45:57.680 And they are working to save babies.
00:46:00.240 They're the largest provider of free ultrasounds in the nation.
00:46:04.040 Because once a mom comes in who's considering an abortion,
00:46:07.180 she comes in and she sees the baby on ultrasound,
00:46:11.060 she is, like, I think is like 80% more likely
00:46:14.240 to have the baby and not abort the baby.
00:46:18.840 Share a heartbeat, will you?
00:46:20.100 Dial pound 250.
00:46:21.620 Say the keyword baby.
00:46:23.360 Pound 250.
00:46:24.820 Keyword baby.
00:46:25.620 Or go to preborn.com slash Beck.
00:46:28.820 Sponsored by Preborn.
00:46:32.080 Gabe, what a tremendous series of articles that you have written.
00:46:36.880 Thank you for being on the program.
00:46:38.120 Thank you very much, Glenn.
00:46:41.140 I appreciate that.
00:46:41.980 And thank you for having me.
00:46:43.120 You bet.
00:46:43.620 Okay.
00:46:43.960 So explain what you have uncovered and why it's important.
00:46:51.240 We essentially unpacked in a multi-part series
00:46:55.160 that we are still working on about how essentially these organizations,
00:47:00.660 particularly we highlighted a group called the Global Disinformation Index.
00:47:04.120 And these organizations are feeding secret blacklists to advertising companies
00:47:11.360 with the intent of shutting down and defunding disfavored speech.
00:47:16.220 In this case, certainly conservative media.
00:47:20.520 And so we actually learn that the Washington Examiner, among other outlets,
00:47:25.180 is on this blacklist and that this process is playing a very major role
00:47:33.000 in how media outlets are gaining access to advertising dollars.
00:47:38.940 The second part of our series, sort of the most important part of this, I think,
00:47:45.640 is that the United States government has funded the disinformation tracking organization
00:47:51.120 that is, as we said, openly taking steps to defund and deplatform disfavored speech,
00:47:59.240 certainly raising First Amendment issues.
00:48:01.740 Okay.
00:48:01.780 Well, hang on just a sec.
00:48:02.740 First, Global Disinformation Index sounds very official.
00:48:08.700 Who is this group?
00:48:11.660 Yes.
00:48:12.260 So the Global Disinformation Index is a British organization
00:48:16.020 that has two affiliated American nonprofit organizations
00:48:19.840 that have both been reaping hundreds of thousands of dollars,
00:48:25.120 kind of as this disinformation tracking space accelerates.
00:48:28.960 And so Global Disinformation Index, they compile a secret dynamic exclusion list,
00:48:35.600 essentially a blacklist.
00:48:37.280 And this list compiles groups that they determine to be peddling alleged disinformation.
00:48:43.740 So this organization has said publicly that the outlets that it deems the riskiest are outlets like the American Spectator,
00:48:52.120 the American Conservative, the Daily Wire, the Blaze, Newsmax, and several other outlets.
00:49:00.380 And so their blacklist separately is something that they provide to advertising companies like the Microsoft-owned Xander
00:49:09.460 in order for those advertising companies to have insight into the outlets that they should allegedly deplatform and defund.
00:49:19.160 And what gives these people the expertise to make that determination?
00:49:29.320 Great question.
00:49:31.080 You know, that's obviously a question a lot of people's minds, certainly, Glenn.
00:49:36.360 You know, these organizations are heavily staffed with an oversaw.
00:49:41.160 They're oversaw by people, university professors, writers, and journalists.
00:49:47.100 One individual on the board of the Global Disinformation Index is Ann Applebaum,
00:49:51.220 a left-wing journalist who notably discredited the Hunter Biden laptop story.
00:49:57.880 Other individuals are involved with groups like the Pew Research Center, the Open Society Foundation,
00:50:04.040 and NVIDIA, notably.
00:50:06.720 Yeah.
00:50:07.760 Okay.
00:50:08.680 So they're going around.
00:50:10.680 And, I mean, this is something that Media Matters was doing.
00:50:16.340 And really, despite what is said in the papers quite unaffectively with me when I was on just radio and Fox,
00:50:26.600 and they would target and target and target and target.
00:50:31.020 But now you're looking really at Google and Amazon as the big advertisers,
00:50:38.800 and they're targeting all of these agencies, if you will, that are really media platforms, correct?
00:50:53.100 That's right.
00:50:54.180 But, you know, a group like this, which obviously, you know, has certainly flown under the radar,
00:51:02.240 has developed major influence, clearly, in the advertising space,
00:51:06.760 based on the fact that Microsoft, we learned, was subscribing to this list.
00:51:11.360 Microsoft, obviously, one of the largest corporations throughout the world.
00:51:16.700 I'm just looking at the review of the Huffington Post.
00:51:23.760 Their risk level is low, so feel free to advertise.
00:51:28.960 The Huffington Post largely features fact-based, unbiased content free of sensational text or visuals.
00:51:38.080 The domain also refrained for perpetuating divisive narratives via the negative targeting of groups or individuals.
00:51:46.100 You know, unless you're conservative or Republican.
00:51:48.860 The outlet scores for the operations pillar indicators are imperfect, but it is better than most.
00:51:56.500 Wow.
00:51:58.160 Wow.
00:51:59.040 So, that's good.
00:52:01.200 Yeah, and what I would like to flag, Glenn, is that the organizations, the news outlets,
00:52:06.160 that the Global Disinformation Index ranks as the 10 least riskiest.
00:52:10.560 They all skewed to the left, except the Wall Street Journal.
00:52:15.620 But notably, they flag Huffington Post, now HuffPost, and BuzzFeed News as allegedly the 10 riskiest outlets.
00:52:23.380 As your listeners may remember, these are two media outlets that heavily peddled the Steele dossier
00:52:28.900 that intended to link Donald Trump to Russia.
00:52:32.560 They also peddled the false notion that the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation.
00:52:37.780 These are two very problematic, legitimate disinformation campaigns that seeped into the American consciousness.
00:52:45.380 Well, and I don't think people understand.
00:52:47.260 The Wall Street Journal is actually used to be, I don't know if it is anymore,
00:52:51.620 it used to be more liberal in its news pages than the New York Times.
00:52:57.600 But because of the editorial section being so conservative, it just kind of got this rap that it wasn't.
00:53:04.820 But it's a very liberal newspaper when it comes to the news.
00:53:12.020 Yeah, I mean, what we tried to highlight again is the fact that the 10 allegedly least risky outlets,
00:53:20.180 that certainly is problematic given the stories that they've promoted in the past.
00:53:25.400 Whereas when you look at the outlets labeled the riskiest outlets,
00:53:29.160 essentially like the Washington Examiner or the Blaze,
00:53:32.360 these are outlets that actually were right on this material first.
00:53:37.080 You know, the Washington Examiner verified the contents of the Hunter Biden laptop.
00:53:40.580 And so did several other outlets long before legacy media actually took an honest attempt to take a look at that information.
00:53:49.420 You know, it's funny because I don't see, I don't see any, on the riskiest, on the riskiest domains or apps,
00:53:57.760 I don't see a single liberal on here.
00:54:00.980 And I see almost every single conservative.
00:54:05.060 It's quite a list.
00:54:08.260 Can we go back to now where the government is funding?
00:54:11.480 Because even our State Department is funding this.
00:54:15.320 That's right.
00:54:16.700 The State Department has granted $330,000 to the Global Disinformation Index through two specific entities.
00:54:26.140 One, the Global Engagement Center, which is essentially a grant-making arm through the State Department
00:54:31.780 that actually came under fire in Twitter files reported by journalist Matt Taibbi
00:54:37.780 because that same organization was contacting Twitter and asking them to engage in content moderation
00:54:47.100 related to the coronavirus and vaccines in particular in 2020.
00:54:53.600 So that's one entity that has funded the Global Disinformation Index.
00:54:57.720 The other State Department entity is the National Endowment for Democracy,
00:55:02.300 which is a nonprofit group that was authorized through Congress that is funded almost entirely
00:55:07.500 through congressional appropriations.
00:55:09.880 And I would really flag that the board of the National Endowment for Democracy has oversight
00:55:15.920 over who receives grants.
00:55:18.080 And Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, a Republican, a staunch Trump advocate,
00:55:23.060 in the line with former President Donald Trump,
00:55:25.500 she sits on the board of that organization.
00:55:27.720 Uh, uh, it's a, it's, uh, it's quite a mess.
00:55:34.580 How is this going to be cleaned up?
00:55:38.040 So we, you know, we, we've received word from a few, a few, uh, members of Congress who have said,
00:55:43.180 you know, this raises major issues and they would hope to investigate this.
00:55:47.180 One is Representative Michael McCall, who's the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee,
00:55:51.480 which oversees grants to the State Department.
00:55:54.560 Uh, another is Representative Jim Banks of Indiana, who has been a staunch advocate of the First Amendment
00:56:00.320 and anti, uh, anti-censorship operations.
00:56:03.820 Uh, but certainly, you know, certainly, you know, a lot of Americans are hoping that, uh, members of Congress
00:56:10.000 can take adequate steps to, uh, investigate this situation in particular,
00:56:15.520 because this, uh, really feeds into a lot that was revealed with the Twitter files
00:56:20.180 between, uh, public and private partnerships.
00:56:22.840 And I think that does raise a lot of concerns with, uh, American voters.
00:56:27.160 Gabe, I, uh, I thank you for exposing this and all the work you guys do at the Examiner.
00:56:31.800 You're, you're a really reputable site.
00:56:34.440 Um, and you do a lot of great work.
00:56:37.040 So, thank you.
00:56:38.520 Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
00:56:39.880 Thank you very much, Tom.
00:56:40.240 You bet. Bye-bye.
00:56:41.140 All right. Let me tell you about American financing.
00:56:43.240 You've been putting off, uh, doing a cash-out refi of your home's mortgage.
00:56:47.340 Maybe it's time to look again.
00:56:49.640 Everything costs more right now.
00:56:51.300 And if you're counting on people like Jerome Powell and the Fed to pull us out of this,
00:56:56.560 they got it.
00:56:57.440 Hey, boy, they got a plan.
00:56:59.740 Do they?
00:57:00.540 Hey, you're betting on the wrong horse.
00:57:02.740 Right now, the Fed is trying to stabilize the housing market, which means home values
00:57:09.220 are going to go down.
00:57:10.680 If you're a homeowner, maybe it's time to find light at the end of the tunnel in the
00:57:15.100 form of a cash-out refi at American financing.
00:57:18.940 You can take some cash out of your house and pay down some of this debt that if you have
00:57:23.620 credit card debt, man, you are paying like 20, 21% interest rate.
00:57:28.200 That's, that's insane.
00:57:29.740 That is almost loan shark territory.
00:57:33.120 American financing is a family-owned mortgage company that's in it for you.
00:57:37.020 And they're saving people just like you an average of $700 a month.
00:57:40.820 Plus, you might be able to delay up to two mortgage payments and close in as little as
00:57:46.100 10 days.
00:57:47.240 So I want you to call American financing now, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or go to Americanfinancing.net.
00:57:57.740 Americanfinancing, NMLS, 182334, www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
00:58:04.800 10 seconds, station ID.
00:58:05.800 This is quite amazing.
00:58:18.900 The Washington Post.
00:58:19.920 Now, this is going to take you as a complete surprise.
00:58:22.700 The Washington Post has an article today.
00:58:26.300 The conservative challenge to liberalism goes deeper than self-interest.
00:58:33.720 What?
00:58:35.040 What are you, crazy?
00:58:36.940 The political analysis, Mike Barone, once quipped, all process arguments are insincere,
00:58:43.360 including this one.
00:58:44.360 He meant that political fights about the rules of the game are really not about helping,
00:58:49.420 you know, one side win, that they are just about that.
00:58:55.160 But now the Washington Post is reporting that's not always the case, at least not entirely.
00:59:01.900 Two new high-quality studies suggest that American conservatives are more committed than liberals
00:59:09.220 to two important procedural norms.
00:59:13.240 Now, this is going to come as a shock.
00:59:16.140 But conservatives, they have found in two separate studies,
00:59:20.120 actually believe in state rights and freedom of speech.
00:59:26.320 Yeah.
00:59:27.020 Yeah.
00:59:27.840 It's crazy.
00:59:29.200 Thank goodness the Washington Post is here to shed some light on this,
00:59:33.720 that maybe, possibly, some people believe it.
00:59:37.240 These findings support the theory that conservatives are more focused on the means of distributing
00:59:44.560 political power, while liberalism is more focused on the ends to which that political power is used.
00:59:51.660 So, wait a minute.
00:59:52.800 So, a group of progressives that say the ends justify the means,
00:59:59.320 they're not as concerned with the process that gets you to the end?
01:00:04.600 And, wow, what a shock.
01:00:09.280 Modern populism on the right, which aims to set aside traditional guardrails
01:00:14.680 and achieve conservative ends by a wider range of means,
01:00:18.780 can be thought of partly as responsive to this gap.
01:00:23.860 Based on the analysis of survey data since 2000,
01:00:26.920 it found that conservatives are more likely to prefer a devolution of power to state and local jurisdictions,
01:00:35.600 even if doing so might make it harder to achieve conservative policy aims.
01:00:42.260 Wow.
01:00:43.340 So, let me see if I have this right.
01:00:47.140 Conservatives are actually trying to conserve the principles of our Constitution.
01:00:55.600 So, it's not like we're like, yeah, everybody loves the Bill of Rights,
01:01:00.380 but we're actually like, we love the Bill of Rights, and we stand by it.
01:01:08.240 Wow.
01:01:09.920 Hmm.
01:01:11.240 Again, liberals are more likely to prioritize policy aims
01:01:14.660 and to support whatever level of government seems most likely to achieve these things.
01:01:21.420 That is crazy.
01:01:23.440 On issues where state-led policy making can advance liberal priorities,
01:01:28.440 meanwhile, liberal support for federalism surges.
01:01:32.580 In 2018, 83% of liberals supported California's prerogative
01:01:37.080 to set especially progressive vehicle emissions,
01:01:40.040 while conservative views of federalisms also shifted depending on ideological implications.
01:01:46.500 The effect is less pronounced.
01:01:49.000 58% of conservatives also say California should be allowed.
01:01:53.920 So, almost 60% of conservatives say,
01:01:57.860 yeah, California should be allowed.
01:02:01.020 It's a state right.
01:02:02.260 Even though we want smaller government,
01:02:05.920 we'll allow the state to decide.
01:02:09.560 Wow.
01:02:11.140 That's, this is changing my whole view.
01:02:15.540 I didn't even.
01:02:17.480 Wow.
01:02:18.420 People mean what they say occasionally.
01:02:21.320 In January, another study from Stanford University
01:02:26.460 in University of California, San Diego,
01:02:28.740 measured the propensity of Democrats and Republicans
01:02:31.580 to remove partisan misinformation on social media.
01:02:35.520 The difference was stark.
01:02:38.740 Even when Republicans agree that the content is false,
01:02:43.520 they are still half as likely as Democrats
01:02:46.440 to say that the content should be removed,
01:02:49.320 and more than twice as likely to consider removal censorship.
01:02:55.580 Now, I'm just trying to get a hold of that last sentence.
01:02:59.340 Some people believe that removal of content is censorship.
01:03:09.260 How does that even work?
01:03:11.520 Do the math.
01:03:12.900 That's not what censors do.
01:03:14.660 They don't remove, you know, content.
01:03:20.360 What?
01:03:21.580 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:03:24.100 Apparently, 1,100 people had false headlines
01:03:28.560 geared up to support partisan priors of one party or the other,
01:03:33.400 and it looks like the Republicans were consistent in values,
01:03:40.720 and Democrats weren't.
01:03:42.580 The tip of the pocketbook.
01:03:45.160 Wow.
01:03:46.280 Thank you, Washington Post.
01:03:48.460 I'm sure no eyes will be opened.
01:03:51.340 But there's more.
01:03:52.980 Another study next.
01:03:54.180 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:03:56.500 All right.
01:03:57.440 Once in a while, good things get even better.
01:04:01.140 Take MyPillow, for example.
01:04:03.060 Now, this is the product that I would have never seen myself buying,
01:04:06.800 really, honestly.
01:04:07.520 If I hadn't, if Mike Lindell came down and gave it to me,
01:04:13.020 and he was like, here, you try this.
01:04:14.500 Okay.
01:04:15.240 And I'll see you tomorrow.
01:04:16.460 Okay.
01:04:17.040 So I tried it, and I didn't like it.
01:04:19.340 And all morning, I'm thinking, how am I going to tell him I hated his pillow?
01:04:22.820 And I walk into the office, and he said, well, I'll just sleep.
01:04:25.680 And I said, well, and he said, you don't like it.
01:04:28.060 And I said, nah, actually, I don't.
01:04:30.560 Nothing personal.
01:04:31.920 And he said, you're sleeping on the wrong one.
01:04:34.380 Let me get you another one.
01:04:35.480 I think he got me the bigger one.
01:04:37.220 And I love it.
01:04:38.480 And I sleep with it every night.
01:04:39.760 And I couldn't believe there was a difference between the two.
01:04:43.340 Now, they have upgraded MyPillow 2.0.

01:05:25.080 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
01:05:26.960 Now, I, look, I love grinding and the football field full of humping as much as the next person, sure.
01:05:44.260 But I was maybe just a little off-put, just a little off-put by the Beyonce.
01:05:55.540 I don't know, were they Oompa Loompas?
01:05:58.600 I walk in and I thought, oh my gosh, there's been some sort of hazardous chemical spill in the stadium.
01:06:10.600 And then I realized, no, because they wouldn't be showing their chest and their bellies.
01:06:15.700 And I thought that was tasteful, hot, sure.
01:06:21.060 When Beyonce grabbed her junk and then smelled her hand and then put her hand in the mouth,
01:06:30.380 I thought, she is classy.
01:06:34.540 Or yeah, Rihanna, sorry.
01:06:35.980 Beyonce, Rihanna, whatever.
01:06:38.880 Whatever.
01:06:39.440 She's that super huge star that does that, oh, her super, super classics that she was doing last night.
01:06:49.900 And I think, you know, I saw the picture of her, you know, and I thought, you know, that's,
01:06:58.740 she should have combed her hair before, you know, when you get out of bed,
01:07:02.320 your hair's standing straight up like that and you shouldn't.
01:07:04.440 But, you know, hey, to each his own.
01:07:06.760 I just thought it was classy.
01:07:08.820 And I want to thank, no, no, no.
01:07:11.960 I'm going to tell you the truth.
01:07:13.920 My children would like to thank the NFL for them seeing her grab her crotch and smell her fingers
01:07:24.380 and lick it in front of her, in front of their mom and dad.
01:07:27.780 They enjoyed that as much as we did, as much as we did.
01:07:32.440 It's a great family event.
01:07:34.360 And so thank you.
01:07:36.540 Thank you so much for that.
01:07:37.880 Now, let me go back to a couple of studies that I've that I find very interesting.
01:07:44.760 You know, I just gave you the two studies from The Washington Post that that shows that liberals
01:07:51.880 are more interested in the ends and they don't really care about the means where conservatives
01:07:57.720 actually do care about freedom of speech and, you know, the Constitution and Bill of Rights
01:08:04.460 and stuff, which is weird.
01:08:06.560 And it explains why liberals always say they don't really care.
01:08:12.700 No, we actually do.
01:08:15.800 We actually do.
01:08:17.480 We care about the process a great deal, even if it goes against us.
01:08:23.160 We believe that's the American way.
01:08:26.320 But but very few liberals believe in that they and that's the difference.
01:08:32.140 Those are the people you're seeing peel away.
01:08:34.120 Now you're seeing people peel away from the left that are actual classical liberals.
01:08:41.200 They are people that believe in the Bill of Rights and believe in America and and the process
01:08:49.640 matters.
01:08:50.680 Those are the people who are coming over and they're not becoming conservatives.
01:08:55.020 They're just recognizing, wow, I'm not progressive like that.
01:08:59.940 I actually love my country and would like to have it get better in the way to get, you know,
01:09:05.700 to be better is to, I don't know, live by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
01:09:12.200 All right.
01:09:13.020 So that was the first one.
01:09:14.300 Now I've got another shocking, shocking report.
01:09:19.680 Apparently, a new study from the Survey Center on American Life found that Republican men and
01:09:27.920 women are significantly happier in their marriage than their Democratic counterparts.
01:09:35.700 According to the survey, Republican men report being most satisfied in their relationships.
01:09:43.920 And men, can I just say, of course, because we got the little woman in the kitchen, barefoot
01:09:49.540 and pregnant.
01:09:50.440 Am I right?
01:09:52.220 No, actually, not so much.
01:09:55.620 Democratic women, you know, the ones that Democrats empower and are always trying to say, oh, you
01:10:04.120 are the best.
01:10:05.220 And I'm not going to call you a sweetheart.
01:10:06.900 You are the best.
01:10:07.960 You go out there and you get a job.
01:10:10.060 You go and do all that you can do, babe, because that's who you are.
01:10:15.100 You're just like me.
01:10:16.460 You want to have a thing in your pants?
01:10:19.720 That's great with me, too.
01:10:21.680 There's no difference between the two of us.
01:10:24.340 And that might explain the man you found in my bed last night.
01:10:27.760 But I thought I was you, sweetheart.
01:10:30.540 I did.
01:10:31.720 So 48 percent of those surveyed Republican men, 48 percent stated they were completely
01:10:37.640 satisfied in their marriage.
01:10:39.740 Forty two percent of Republican married women say they're completely satisfied.
01:10:44.880 But see, these bless their heart.
01:10:47.100 They're so cute.
01:10:48.540 These are just those people that have been hypnotized by religion and politics that are
01:10:53.220 just being abused.
01:10:54.280 These women are in abusive relationships.
01:10:56.380 Trust me, you ask any professor at any college, you ask anybody who studies women in women's
01:11:05.640 studies, and they'll tell you that's the truth right there.
01:11:08.540 Now, only 36 percent of Democrat married men and 29 percent of Democrat married women say
01:11:16.120 they're satisfied with their marriage.
01:11:18.520 Huh.
01:11:19.300 Republicans, and this is going to come as a shock to you, Republicans and Democrats view
01:11:23.540 gender roles dramatically differently.
01:11:27.800 Well, of course we do, because we understand there are only two genders.
01:11:35.200 So it doesn't get all murky.
01:11:37.260 You know, once you start adding the the magic fire breathing unicorn she people, you know,
01:11:46.800 it just gets complex Republicans tend to embrace traditional gender roles while Democrats tend
01:11:52.820 to question them.
01:11:54.060 Modern liberal Democrats attribute gender roles to establish social norms they deem to be oppressive.
01:12:02.700 Right?
01:12:03.620 Am I right?
01:12:05.560 Like moms and dads should take care of their kids.
01:12:09.220 You know, the government shouldn't be the ones making all the decisions.
01:12:15.200 You know, each person has a responsibility.
01:12:20.560 For instance, one brings the eggs, one brings the and you put those two together.
01:12:26.600 It's like you got chocolate in my peanut butter and it turns into a baby.
01:12:31.580 Isn't that weird?
01:12:32.640 Anyway, they said this leaks into the relationships for the Democrats, often causing some to purportedly
01:12:41.340 flip traditional gender roles on their heads on tick tock videos titled life as a stay at home
01:12:48.620 husband or life of a trophy husband are an entire genre.
01:12:55.220 Now, wouldn't you love to be called a trophy husband or a trophy wife?
01:13:01.240 I think now I hate to be considered, you know, consistent.
01:13:07.880 I hate to say something that could hurt my own side, but I think trophy wives are just as bad
01:13:15.140 as trophy husbands.
01:13:21.140 Masculinity in Democratic homes is more likely to be toxic and stay at home.
01:13:27.600 Mom is code for slave.
01:13:30.960 I'm glad we know that now.
01:13:32.660 I'm glad we know the dog whistles.
01:13:34.800 That way we can point it out when a liberal says stay at home mothers.
01:13:38.740 We know now that they're really meaning slaves.
01:13:44.400 Unfortunately for progressives, men and women's differing yet complementary skills and talents
01:13:51.240 are not a construct, but rooted, get this one, in human biology.
01:13:59.000 What?
01:14:00.080 Human nature and biology?
01:14:04.260 Next thing you're going to tell me, you know what a woman is.
01:14:06.980 What?
01:14:07.940 Yes.
01:14:08.380 They say that's not a social construct, but rooted in human biology and fighting human
01:14:14.660 nature will never make one happy.
01:14:18.760 Okay.
01:14:19.020 So this is the problem with all the ideas that are coming from the left right now, based in
01:14:25.660 Marxism.
01:14:27.480 What does Marxism do?
01:14:29.800 It fights nature.
01:14:33.240 That's why they have to enforce it.
01:14:37.940 That's why you, that's why you have to, it only happens at the barrel of a gun.
01:14:43.320 And when it's not a barrel of the gun, like it happened here in Texas in 1840, I think
01:14:49.860 1850, there was a big, here in Dallas, there was a big commune of people.
01:14:56.180 They came over, of course, from France and they're like, we're going to try this Marxism
01:15:00.500 thing.
01:15:01.120 And they moved out in the middle of nowhere and they started a socialist, an honest to
01:15:07.580 God, socialist community.
01:15:10.260 That's what the big ball, what is the thing called the big ball here?
01:15:14.240 And yeah, reunion tower.
01:15:16.500 That tower reunion is named after the town that was built right underneath that tower.
01:15:24.280 It was a huge socialist experiment and it didn't work to say the least.
01:15:31.700 Well, I mean, it did until they, instead of killing the old people and the sick people,
01:15:39.020 they just expelled them because society couldn't pay for it.
01:15:43.180 And then when people wouldn't work to pull their fair share, which was a lot, they expelled
01:15:49.840 them too.
01:15:51.220 So that's what happens when it's a volunteer society.
01:15:54.300 It doesn't work.
01:15:55.880 So what do you do?
01:15:57.700 Well, you're not going to give up your power and say, oh, well, it didn't work.
01:16:01.960 You're just going to have to liquidate those people.
01:16:05.720 That's why it always goes wrong.
01:16:07.760 Anyway, back to the study conservatives comparatively, greater happiness goes beyond marriage.
01:16:17.220 They say in a 2022 American family survey, they found that 37% of conservative men reported
01:16:25.220 they're completely satisfied with their life versus 21% of liberal men.
01:16:32.120 How can you, I'm surprised that 37%, only 37%.
01:16:36.840 That's the high number, is happy with their life.
01:16:41.880 I mean, how would you answer that?
01:16:45.760 And what would make you say that you're not happy with your life?
01:16:49.560 Success?
01:16:51.020 Money?
01:16:53.200 I mean, what, what, I mean, if you're happily married, I don't understand.
01:17:01.180 I mean, maybe it's just me.
01:17:02.580 But, you know, the one thing that Tanya and I have learned is, and we've known this for
01:17:12.120 many, many years, the importance of our faith.
01:17:16.720 But our family has been under attack from, I believe, dark forces, you know, in the last
01:17:25.440 year and it has been, I mean, we have had everything thrown at us and Tanya and I have gotten to
01:17:34.440 a place to where, especially with the kids, it's kind of like, oh, well, that's going to
01:17:39.280 leave a mark, but hey, it's their mark to be left.
01:17:42.860 And, you know, we find ourselves, you know, kind of with the kids in slow motion.
01:17:48.860 And first we're like, don't do that.
01:17:50.640 Don't, you don't want to do it.
01:17:51.820 Don't stop.
01:17:52.660 Don't, you really don't.
01:17:54.380 And then they just kind of go into slow motion.
01:17:56.940 And then we look at each other and go, wow.
01:17:59.800 Wow.
01:18:00.160 That's going to take a lot of therapy.
01:18:01.760 But the good news is they'll be paying for it.
01:18:04.320 So we've kind of come to this place to where we're fine and we know that in the end, the
01:18:12.940 family will be fine if we all just try to do the right thing.
01:18:16.380 And if they don't do the right thing, well, they're going to learn one way or another and
01:18:22.200 we can't control everybody.
01:18:24.560 We can't.
01:18:24.920 They're adults.
01:18:25.640 You got to make your own decisions.
01:18:28.940 And it leads to such happiness.
01:18:31.140 I mean, Tanya and I in our darkest times have been able to laugh.
01:18:37.020 I don't think that's ever happened before because we never had times this dark, but she
01:18:42.520 hasn't found me funny since about two weeks after we got married.
01:18:46.360 So, all right, blinds.com.

01:19:00.620 Usually requires having people come to your house, not once, but twice.
01:19:04.940 First to measure and then come back and they pick out what you want.
01:19:09.540 You know, look, look, this is going to be great.
01:19:11.300 And then actually the third time they come in and install them.
01:19:13.560 It's wonderful.
01:19:15.040 It's a hassle and it's expensive and nobody gives you the prices until after they visited

01:19:39.620 you want them to install it.

01:20:33.700 Oh, oh.
01:20:35.940 Hey, here's something good.
01:20:37.440 Internet searches for canceled golf membership have jumped.
01:20:45.540 Now, could be for many reasons.
01:20:48.740 Could be people are finally waking up that golf is nothing but a frustrating game.
01:20:55.540 Could be that it's just more popular to use clubs now to defend yourself.
01:21:01.360 Or it could be that even people who have golf memberships are like, ah, how do I get out
01:21:08.600 of this?
01:21:08.960 I'm starting to be low on money.
01:21:12.020 Now, I don't know which one of the three it is because I'm not a golf expert, but private
01:21:20.920 courses have seen a boom.
01:21:23.580 And now it's starting to fade and people are trying to, uh, cancel.
01:21:31.940 Okay.
01:21:34.120 The only other time we saw this was 14 years ago.
01:21:40.620 Um, the, uh, the headlines were citizens beginning to cancel golf memberships.
01:21:49.800 That is exactly what happened in 2008.
01:21:54.760 So congratulations on that, but we are fine.
01:21:58.880 This, this economy is, is, I mean, it's going like hell or going to hell.
01:22:06.620 I can't remember which one he says, but, uh, Biden's on top of it.
01:22:10.420 And so is the fed.
01:22:12.500 All right.
01:22:13.340 I want to talk to you about balloons and aliens.
01:22:18.320 Yeah.
01:22:18.880 Uh, and what we're shooting down this weekend, the Glenn Beck program.
01:22:24.160 Yeah.
01:22:24.460 Stu's coming back tomorrow.
01:22:25.880 And so it'll be thrilling and we'll pretend that we're excited for him to get back.
01:22:30.660 And we missed him and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
01:22:33.900 Um, all right.
01:22:34.880 So I'm going to come out with kind of a surprising, I think the audience is going to be shocked.
01:22:40.980 Um, a surprising take on the UFO balloon talk.
01:22:45.560 Uh, it's, uh, it's, uh, it's going to be shocking to you.
01:22:51.140 Uh, cause the Pentagon is saying, you know, maybe these are, maybe these are UFOs.
01:22:56.560 Well, maybe they are.
01:22:58.680 And maybe monkeys will fly out of my butt this hour too.
01:23:02.020 So we'll, we'll, uh, we'll see, uh, coming up in just a second, the national radio program
01:23:07.440 begins.
01:23:08.440 Fifteen seconds.
01:23:12.440 Fifteen seconds.
01:23:42.440 We got no room to compromise.
01:23:47.440 We got to stand together, it's the chorus of life.
01:23:52.440 Stand up, stand up, hold the line.
01:23:58.440 It's a new day on time to rise.
01:24:04.440 What you're about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:24:11.440 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:24:17.440 Yeah, yeah, I don't know if you heard this, but the Pentagon has come out and said,
01:24:24.440 we're not ruling out that these balloons are aliens.
01:24:28.440 I'm going to take a pretty crazy stance on that one,
01:24:32.440 and I'm going to rule them out entirely.
01:24:36.440 I don't think aliens arriving in balloons that we're able to shoot out of the sky.
01:24:40.440 Just don't think it's happening.
01:24:42.440 I know, I know, I know.
01:24:44.440 What a hothead, right?
01:24:46.440 Well, I'll give you some facts behind all of the balloons that we seem to be shooting out of the sky in 60 seconds.
01:24:55.440 Look, you got to take care of your family, and I'm going to do an expose on what is actually happening with our energy supply.
01:25:05.440 I did, I had some people over at my house that all we talked about was energy on Saturday.
01:25:14.440 Exciting, you bet.
01:25:16.440 My wife is like, oh, when you talk energy, Glenn, I'm so hot.
01:25:20.440 Anyway, so I had some guests over the house, and we're talking about what is actually in the Inflation Reduction Act.
01:25:29.440 You're not going to believe what they're doing.
01:25:33.440 You're not going to believe, well, you might.
01:25:35.440 Well, no, I don't.
01:25:37.440 I think when I tell you this, you will even say, that is too far.
01:25:42.440 But unfortunately, it's not.
01:25:44.440 Unfortunately, it's not.
01:25:45.440 I would suggest that you have some food on hand, supply of food so you're, you know, not left empty handed and empty stomached.
01:25:54.440 Also, that you look and least consider getting a Vesta.
01:25:59.440 Now, Vesta is a product from My Patriot Supply.
01:26:03.440 And a Vesta is a self-powered heater that you can use safely indoors.
01:26:08.440 They've been working on this thing for years, trying to come up with the best kind of fuel, etc.
01:26:13.440 And when you see it, you're going to go, oh, I've seen something like that.
01:26:17.440 Yeah, that's that's where they got the idea.
01:26:21.440 And then they perfected it and made it so there's no toxic fumes, no harmful smoke.
01:26:27.440 There's no electricity.
01:26:29.440 And they built this little it's it's it's a heater, really.
01:26:33.440 It's got a fan that will heat up to like a 200 square foot room.
01:26:37.440 You can boil water on it.
01:26:38.440 It's really amazing.
01:26:40.440 Get a Vesta today, even just for camping.
01:26:44.440 I mean, assuming you're camping out in the cold.
01:26:46.440 I mean, why would anybody?
01:26:48.440 Well, I don't know why anybody camps in the first place.
01:26:50.440 Anyway, my patriot supply dot com.
01:26:53.440 That's my patriot supply dot com.
01:26:57.440 All right.
01:26:58.440 Prepare yourself.
01:26:59.440 Prepare yourself.
01:27:01.440 The unidentified flying object shot down 10 miles off the coast of Alaska had no identifiable propulsion.
01:27:12.440 And it interfered with the sensors of U.S. military fighter jets.
01:27:19.440 Well, some of them, others, it didn't might have been like, oh, it's back on again.
01:27:25.440 I don't know.
01:27:26.440 But some of them, it affected others.
01:27:29.440 It had no effect.
01:27:32.440 Coincidence?
01:27:33.440 I don't think so.
01:27:35.440 Certainly men cannot do that.
01:27:38.440 The unidentified object the size of a small car with a cylindrical shape and flying at 40,000 feet off the coast of Alaska.
01:27:50.440 They shot it down.
01:27:52.440 Now, senior military officials said the object was initially detected by radar.
01:27:57.440 Then we dispatched the F-35, the stealth fighter jets, because you don't know what a balloon the size of a car can do.
01:28:06.440 You need the stealth.
01:28:08.440 So National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications John Kirby said flybys of the object happened on Thursday night, Friday morning.
01:28:17.440 But both encounters provided limited information about the unidentified object.
01:28:24.440 But after determining that it was indeed a UFO and it was unmanned, or was it?
01:28:34.440 Or is this the Pentagon's way of saying, no, there were no men inside?
01:28:41.440 Meaning they could have been Venetians.
01:28:46.440 We don't know.
01:28:48.440 They made the decision to shoot it down.
01:28:51.440 And so this balloon was shot down by our brave, brave Pentagon officials.
01:28:59.440 How they do it, I don't know.
01:29:01.440 Now, citing a source briefed on intelligence, some pilots said the object interfered with the sensors on their plane, but not all pilots experienced that.
01:29:13.440 Some pilots also claimed to have seen no identifiable propulsion on the object and couldn't explain how it was staying in the air.
01:29:24.440 Others said it was a balloon.
01:29:27.440 Okay, I don't know who to believe.
01:29:29.440 I don't know what's going on.
01:29:31.440 The conflicting eyewitness accounts are partly why the Pentagon has been unable to fully explain what this first object was.
01:29:41.440 We're calling this an object because that's the best description we have right now.
01:29:48.440 We don't know who owns it, whether it's state owned or corporate owned or privately owned.
01:29:55.440 It looked almost like, I hear, like a flying spider.
01:30:01.440 And it had like six or eight legs off to the sides of it all around.
01:30:06.440 And then it had like little helicopter blades on each end of one of those legs.
01:30:12.440 Now, some people are saying that's a drone you can get like at Best Buy.
01:30:18.440 No, no, I don't think so.
01:30:20.440 I've never seen that before.
01:30:22.440 So on Saturday, a US F-22 Raptor shot down a high altitude airborne object also in Canadian airspace.
01:30:35.440 US fighter jets took off from a joint base in Alaska to monitor the object as it crossed over into Canadian airspace.
01:30:46.440 But when Trudeau saw that coming his way, he said, I've got we got to get we got to get the planes up in the air.
01:30:53.440 And seeing that they really didn't have any, they called us and we sent our planes over Canadian airspace.
01:30:59.440 But here's where it gets good.
01:31:01.440 The Pentagon says, as Canadian authorities can conduct recovery operations, it will help our country learn more about the object.
01:31:12.440 And our FBI is going to be working closely with the Canadian mounted police.
01:31:19.440 So you've got the Mounties involved now.
01:31:23.440 You don't just pull the Mounties out for nothing.
01:31:25.440 You know, you get the Mounties out when you're like, I think it really is an alien.
01:31:30.440 And they're like, OK, I'm going to call the Mounties.
01:31:32.440 Don't make me call them unless you're pretty sure it's an alien.
01:31:35.440 And we're like, we're really pretty sure it's an alien in a balloon.
01:31:39.440 Now, they say that there were three of these things that they had to shoot down over the weekend.
01:31:55.440 And it's, you know, it's it's it's pretty dicey.
01:31:59.440 It's pretty dicey.
01:32:00.440 CNN reported that the UFO that was shot down over Alaska may have been and I'm quoting an alien spacecraft.
01:32:10.440 No identifiable propulsion, no flag on the back of it.
01:32:17.440 And surely China would have put a flag on a balloon or somebody else, you know, or it would have said Remax if it was from Earth.
01:32:26.440 But it doesn't.
01:32:28.440 It doesn't say that.
01:32:30.440 Now, let me give you let me give you some perspective on this.
01:32:36.440 I don't believe at all for a second that it's a UFO.
01:32:43.440 OK, the small balloons carrying a payload.
01:32:48.440 What does that mean?
01:32:49.440 Last week we had a balloon with a payload that was completely innocent.
01:32:54.440 There were no.
01:32:55.440 I mean, it's not going to but I mean, how are we going to possibly shoot it down?
01:33:00.440 I mean, what are we going to do?
01:33:02.440 We're we're going to think that we can blow that balloon to smithereens.
01:33:05.440 With a missile.
01:33:08.440 No, we can't do that.
01:33:09.440 Not over Montana or Wyoming or South Dakota or North Dakota.
01:33:14.440 My gosh, the population center, the sheep that might have something in their wool down on the ground at the end.
01:33:22.440 You know, and we who knows that balloon could come down.
01:33:25.440 Now we shot it over the water.
01:33:27.440 How many dolphins are going to die from eating that balloon?
01:33:30.440 Huh? How many?
01:33:31.440 It's so dangerous.
01:33:33.440 But the Chinese balloon was not dangerous.
01:33:36.440 Didn't have, quote, a payload had something underneath it.
01:33:40.440 We didn't know what it was.
01:33:42.440 But these have a payload.
01:33:47.440 Here's what's happening.
01:33:48.440 We're not sure what.
01:33:52.440 Who has what anymore?
01:33:54.440 We don't know.
01:33:55.440 We don't know what China is doing.
01:33:58.440 We know that they're hostile.
01:34:00.440 We know that they are probing us.
01:34:03.440 We know that Russia is doing the same.
01:34:06.440 We don't know exactly what they have, what they don't have, because these, quote, UFOs have been following us.
01:34:15.440 And these.
01:34:16.440 No, seriously, I'm not paranoid.
01:34:18.440 No, the UFOs are.
01:34:19.440 I'm telling you, the aliens are following us.
01:34:22.440 No, actually, they are.
01:34:24.440 And the Pentagon has confirmed this.
01:34:27.440 It was confirmed during covid.
01:34:29.440 So I don't know.
01:34:31.440 Maybe maybe they were high on vaccines.
01:34:34.440 I don't know.
01:34:35.440 Sniffing the vaccines at the Pentagon.
01:34:37.440 And they're like, let's say that the aliens are there.
01:34:40.440 But apparently.
01:34:42.440 The alien ships, they're saying they're not of this world.
01:34:47.440 But they don't look like balloons.
01:34:49.440 OK, I'm just saying.
01:34:52.440 And and they do think that there is a possibility that somebody, you know, China or somebody has something like this, but they don't think it's likely, but they don't know.
01:35:05.440 So now anything that comes over with, you know, Dr. Senile in office, who's like, you know, have you seen the the video of him giving the can we play that again?
01:35:18.440 The video of him giving an interview about this, like one eye is swollen shot.
01:35:25.440 He's like, you know, got crusties on the other eye from being woken up.
01:35:30.440 He looks absolutely senile, but at least he sounds presidential.
01:35:34.440 Listen.
01:35:35.440 Wasn't it a major security breach for the United States?
01:35:39.440 Just the fact that the balloon came into the airspace and flew over the country for so many days?
01:35:44.440 No. Look, the total amount of intelligence gatherings going on by every country around the world is overwhelming.
01:35:53.440 And the idea that a balloon could traverse the country, American airspace.
01:36:00.440 Traverse.
01:36:03.440 Anyway.
01:36:04.440 Yeah.
01:36:05.440 It's not a major breach.
01:36:07.440 OK, not a major breach.
01:36:08.440 And the idea that it could reverse traverse our airspace, which I don't think really works, but I'm not the president.
01:36:15.440 Traverse our airspace.
01:36:17.440 You mean go from one side of the country to the other in our airspace the entire time?
01:36:22.440 If that's what you mean, I see why you stop saying anything, because you were like, I mean, that's well, OK, just happened.
01:36:30.440 So, you know, you know what I mean.
01:36:33.440 Uh huh. I do know what you mean.
01:36:35.440 Here's what I'm concerned about.
01:36:37.440 The tit for tat that is going on with the Chinese right now.
01:36:41.440 They're already saying that we're guilty of sending balloons over their country.
01:36:47.440 Can we stop?
01:36:49.440 It was an old timey kind of idea when it was used by the wizard in the Wizard of Oz movie.
01:36:58.440 OK, old timey.
01:37:00.440 We're not using balloons.
01:37:02.440 Can we stop with the balloons?
01:37:04.440 Now, what happens if we start shooting down everything that we can't immediately explain?
01:37:10.440 What happens if China follows that lead?
01:37:13.440 You know, the Soviets forced a passenger jet to land in 1978.
01:37:18.440 Two people died in the emergency landing.
01:37:20.440 Then in 83, the Soviets shot down KAL 007.
01:37:25.440 I'll never forget it.
01:37:26.440 I was in Washington.
01:37:27.440 I thought we were going to be vaporized.
01:37:29.440 We got so close to being vaporized.
01:37:33.440 U.S. congressman was killed.
01:37:36.440 268 other passengers.
01:37:38.440 And they said it was obvious this was a passenger plane.
01:37:42.440 The Soviet military still says that it was the CIA.
01:37:46.440 I don't know who to believe anymore.
01:37:49.440 I'm just glad we're not all dead or have two heads and only four fingers.
01:37:55.440 I don't know if you know this radiation's not healthy.
01:37:59.440 Right now, China is looking into ways to respond.
01:38:04.440 They're no doubt elevating their air defenses and looking into a measured tit for tat.
01:38:11.440 And the stakes just keep going up higher and higher and higher, especially when we have their planes coming into our airspace and our planes going into their airspace.
01:38:20.440 We should have taken out the first balloon.
01:38:23.440 We should have taken out the first balloon.
01:38:25.440 But now, I don't know.
01:38:27.440 Are we just firing on birthday party balloons and then calling it like it could be a danger because we're trying to act tough?
01:38:35.440 And if we're operating like that, why would we expect the rest of the world to operate differently?
01:38:40.440 This is stupid and dangerous.
01:38:42.440 And I'm I'm pretty sure I can't I won't rule anything out anymore, but I'm pretty sure it's not an alien spacecraft.
01:38:51.440 All right.
01:38:54.440 Let me tell you about Micah.
01:38:56.440 He's a he's a neighbor right down your street.
01:39:00.440 You know, the friendly, helpful guy you keep meaning to get to know better.
01:39:05.440 Micah is an army veteran, solid family guy, three beautiful kids.
01:39:10.440 And speaking of kids while back, Micah found other schools were teaching, you know, graphic sex curriculum.
01:39:17.440 You know, you know, he wasn't the kind of guy to sit back.
01:39:22.440 And he and several like minded friends ran for school board positions and they won enough spots to overturn the curriculum.
01:39:31.440 Oh, other tiny detail about Micah.
01:39:34.440 He's a real guy.
01:39:35.440 He's a real estate agent and he works with real estate agents.
01:39:38.440 I trust dot com.
01:39:40.440 I mean, if the guy can stand up to the woke mob infecting our schools, I mean, and fight until he wins.
01:39:46.440 Imagine what he's capable of doing, you know, in his own real profession and helping you sell a home or buy a home.
01:39:54.440 My company works with people like Micah all over the country that are just like you, except they're a professional at buying and selling houses.
01:40:04.440 Real estate agents, I trust dot com.
01:40:07.440 The name says it all.
01:40:08.440 Real estate agents, I trust dot com.
01:40:11.440 Go there now.
01:40:12.440 Free service to you.
01:40:13.440 Real estate agents, I trust dot com.
01:40:15.440 Ten seconds.
01:40:16.440 Station ID.
01:40:17.440 Wow.
01:40:18.440 Now, I don't know if we're we're shooting these out of the sky, but the Department of Homeland Security is reducing its fleet of surveillance blimps because we are a nation that is on the edge financially.
01:40:41.440 And we don't have the money to run those blimps anymore.
01:40:46.440 And so we're going to get rid of them.
01:40:49.440 Now, good news is these are the blimps that are on our southern border.
01:40:53.440 These are the ones that have counted seven hundred and seventy thousand encounters and the getaways.
01:41:05.440 OK, so these are the blimps that are actually capturing everything on footage so we have some idea what's going on.
01:41:12.440 But again, like I said, hey, we have to make tough choices, you know, and we've got to you know, we've got to make sure that New Zealand has some money from us so they can shut down their power plants.
01:41:26.440 But we don't have money for the border in the blimps.
01:41:30.440 What? I mean, we don't know.
01:41:31.440 They could be spies could be spy satellites.
01:41:33.440 We don't know.
01:41:34.440 We don't know.
01:41:35.440 Could be birthday balloons could be pin the tail on the donkey could be a deadly weapon from China.
01:41:40.440 We don't know.
01:41:43.440 What else?
01:41:45.440 Oh, by the way, China is a friend.
01:41:48.440 They are not an enemy of ours.
01:41:50.440 Border Patrol applet apprehensions of Chinese nationals at our southern border up eight hundred percent.
01:41:59.440 So, you know, and that's quite the walk from China.
01:42:04.440 You know, I've heard about the border tunnels.
01:42:09.440 Because I started one when I was a kid, I was going to tunnel all the way to China.
01:42:14.440 Do you think they've done that?
01:42:17.440 And it comes out right at our border?
01:42:20.440 Wow.
01:42:23.440 Well, those are just ambitious kids.
01:42:25.440 That's all that is.
01:42:26.440 Don't worry about those kids coming up through that tunnel all the way from China because they deserve it.
01:42:32.440 You know, if you've done that, you come on in.
01:42:34.440 We need entrepreneurs like you.
01:42:36.440 So we we got that going for us.
01:42:39.440 All right.
01:42:40.440 There's one other thing there.
01:42:43.440 They're the Chinese are coming out now and they're reporting how much gold they are buying.
01:42:51.440 And one would have to ask themselves, gee, why would one do that?
01:42:57.440 You didn't want to report it before.
01:43:00.440 Now you're buying up all this gold and you're reporting that you have that in your treasury.
01:43:10.440 It's almost as if you're like going to start a new international currency and you want everybody to know that it's backed up with gold.
01:43:21.440 But I'm sure that's not it.
01:43:24.440 You know, they're busy with water balloons next.
01:43:27.440 They're going to come over here and they're going to hit us with water balloons.
01:43:30.440 Anyway, we have the details on that and so much more from Carol Roth, who is is watching this.
01:43:39.440 And she we saw this last week and I'm like, Carol, she's like, I know I'm on it.
01:43:44.440 I got it.
01:43:45.440 I got it.
01:43:46.440 So Bank of China has just bought another 15 tons of gold.
01:43:52.440 And this is the third straight month of buying.
01:43:57.440 And the first time they've released.
01:44:00.440 Yeah.
01:44:01.440 Yeah.
01:44:02.440 That's us at the Treasury.
01:44:04.440 We're doing that before.
01:44:05.440 It was like, oh, no, we like golden elephants and stuff like that.
01:44:10.440 And we like we're like India.
01:44:13.440 We like to make a lot of jewelry.
01:44:15.440 Uh huh.
01:44:16.440 With with 15 tons of gold.
01:44:19.440 Lots of people over here.
01:44:21.440 Mm hmm.
01:44:22.440 OK.
01:44:23.440 OK.
01:44:24.440 So are they preparing an invasion of Taiwan?
01:44:29.440 Are they just getting ready to join up with Russia?
01:44:33.440 I've got something that China and Russia are doing that will boggle your mind coming in the next couple of weeks.
01:44:42.440 Just got to get it all buttoned up.
01:44:45.440 So I have it all for you.
01:44:46.440 But Carol's going to be here next and give us her point of view on what's really going on and what's coming in our own economy.
01:44:56.440 Next.
01:45:01.440 The Glenn Beck Program.
01:45:03.440 So John wrote in recently about his experience with Relief Factory said, I've used Relief Factor for about six months now, and I was really skeptical at first.
01:45:10.440 I put off trying until my brother loaned me a few days worth.
01:45:14.440 Oh, my gosh.
01:45:15.440 I hope the FBI and the drug police are all over these people.
01:45:19.440 Yeah, we got border problems.
01:45:21.440 But these guys were sharing a non-prescription, all natural relief thing.
01:45:28.440 Forget Fentanyl.
01:45:30.440 Relief Factor.
01:45:32.440 He said, I was pleasantly surprised.
01:45:35.440 I didn't know if it would help.
01:45:38.440 It does.
01:45:39.440 I don't know if it helps everybody, but it helps me.
01:45:41.440 John, thank you for sharing that story.

01:46:30.440 Welcome to the program.
01:46:32.440 It is Monday.
01:46:33.440 I am feeling very, very good.
01:46:36.440 Kansas City won.
01:46:39.440 And while I'm not a huge sports fan, I am a fan of just making Stu miserable.
01:46:48.440 And of course, you know, he lives and dies for the Eagles.
01:46:52.440 And he's he was at the Super Bowl with his son.
01:46:55.440 And I hope his son had to hold him while Stu cried himself to sleep.
01:47:00.440 But he'll be back tomorrow and there won't be a word said about this.
01:47:05.440 I don't want to I don't want to make things worse for him.
01:47:09.440 So it's not like I have any plans or anything for his triumphant return.
01:47:16.440 Get some sleep, Stu, because you're going to need it.
01:47:20.440 Carol Roth is with us.
01:47:22.440 And Carol Roth is she's my my favorite advisor on anything, the economy, because she's a former investment banker.
01:47:34.440 So she understands it at the highest level.
01:47:37.440 And then she realized, wow, I think all of these people might be in league with Satan.
01:47:42.440 My words, not hers.
01:47:44.440 But she got out of that.
01:47:46.440 And now she's trying to help the average person.
01:47:49.440 She wrote the war on small business and she has a new book coming out.
01:47:53.440 We'll talk about it here in a second.
01:47:54.440 Carol, welcome.
01:47:56.440 Thank you, Glenn.
01:47:57.440 Very feisty for a Monday morning.
01:47:59.440 And as somebody who went to school in Philadelphia, they do have a really repugnant fan base.
01:48:05.440 So it is hard to root for.
01:48:07.440 Yeah, it is.
01:48:08.440 I mean, they were the game hadn't even started and they were tipping cars over.
01:48:13.440 I mean, you know, they just and there's it to have a fan base that wants to burn your city to the ground.
01:48:22.440 There's no city better than Philadelphia to burn down to the ground.
01:48:27.440 So I'm just saying you might want to have a fire hydrant near some of the historic places.
01:48:32.440 But the rest of it pretty much can go anyway.
01:48:36.440 Carol, we were talking last week about what's happening with China.
01:48:42.440 And I know you have been watching the gold reserves from the central banks because it's kind of a tip off.
01:48:49.440 You know, my grandfather used to say, if we only knew what the rich were doing before the depression, we could have done that ourselves.
01:48:59.440 And so we're watching all those things.
01:49:02.440 And the rich of the rich, the central banks seem to be buying a lot of gold except for us.
01:49:11.440 Well, to be fair, we again, this is all supposed.
01:49:14.440 This is based on what's reported.
01:49:16.440 Who knows what's actually true, whether it's us or China.
01:49:19.440 But central banks around the world have bought a record amount of gold in 2022.
01:49:26.440 Why?
01:49:27.440 Why?
01:49:28.440 Hang on just a second, Carol.
01:49:30.440 I'm just, is there a God?
01:49:33.440 As soon as she starts to give me the information, the connection goes.
01:49:38.440 Should we reconnect?
01:49:40.440 Do you want to reconnect real quick?
01:49:42.440 Can we do that?
01:49:44.440 Let's reconnect, Carol.
01:49:45.440 Your, your, your, your feet is really bad all of a sudden.
01:49:48.440 So reconnect so we can actually understand what she's saying, but don't worry.
01:49:53.440 It's probably nothing important.
01:49:55.440 It's just like collapse of the dollar stuff.
01:49:57.440 So that can wait.
01:49:58.440 Oh, golly.
01:50:02.440 Okay.
01:50:03.440 You get her reconnected.
01:50:04.440 Let me see.
01:50:05.440 Um, let me, um, while we're waiting, uh, would, would you just play, uh, cut three?
01:50:16.440 This is, this is one of our generals at the Pentagon this weekend.
01:50:19.440 I thought was great.
01:50:21.440 Have you ruled out aliens or extraterrestrial terrestrials?
01:50:25.440 And if so, why?
01:50:26.440 Because that is what everyone is asking us right now.
01:50:30.440 Yeah.
01:50:31.440 Thanks for the question.
01:50:32.440 I'll let the Intel community and the, uh, counter intelligence community figured that
01:50:37.440 out.
01:50:38.440 I haven't ruled out anything.
01:50:39.440 Uh, at this point, we continue to assess, uh, every threat or potential threat unknown
01:50:44.440 that approaches North America, uh, with an attempt to identify it.
01:50:48.440 Uh, okay.
01:50:49.440 So that's a serious general being asked by a serious, I guess, journalist.
01:50:54.440 Cause that's what everybody's asking her.
01:50:56.440 Oh, no, everybody's asking, is it aliens?
01:51:00.440 Come on.
01:51:01.440 Oh, all right, Carol, you're back.
01:51:04.440 I am back.
01:51:05.440 I think it was the Chinese spy balloon.
01:51:07.440 It was my connection.
01:51:08.440 We're talking about, you know, China buying gold and they obviously didn't want you to
01:51:13.440 have this information.
01:51:14.440 Well, now we're safe.
01:51:15.440 We're on a landline.
01:51:17.440 So we have some of those old timey things, uh, here.
01:51:21.440 So, uh, Carol, tell me what's happening with China buying up the gold.
01:51:25.440 Yeah.
01:51:26.440 So central banks around the world, um, record year last year, 2022, 1136 tons of gold.
01:51:32.440 The interesting data point was China, um, for the first time since 2019, they announced
01:51:39.440 that they had increased their purchases, their net holdings of gold in November.
01:51:45.440 And now there has been three consecutive months of them buying gold.
01:51:50.440 And I really believe, um, that this is meant as a signal that could be one of a couple of
01:51:57.440 signals, but they all boil down to signals that relate to a new financial world order.
01:52:02.440 Hmm.
01:52:03.440 Hmm.
01:52:04.440 Would you do me a favor?
01:52:07.440 Yes.
01:52:08.440 Um, uh, I don't mean to put you on a spot, but could you explain how this is so out of
01:52:14.440 your wheelhouse and it's going to come out of left field.
01:52:16.440 Can you explain how electricity is made?
01:52:19.440 I can't, I'm the daughter of an electrician and you're going to, uh, to put me on the
01:52:25.440 spot in terms of how electricity is made.
01:52:27.440 But, um, obviously we do know that it's powered by all different sorts of, um, you know, different
01:52:34.440 sorts of fuels, including it, particularly in the United States and other places around
01:52:38.440 the world.
01:52:39.440 But what do the fossil, you burn the fossil fuels to move, uh, a turbine, right?
01:52:45.440 And the turbine is moving and it's moving, you know, around, uh, copper wires and the
01:52:52.440 copper wires that is actually inside a magnet.
01:52:57.440 So without magnets, you cannot make electricity.
01:53:02.440 Right?
01:53:03.440 Correct.
01:53:04.440 All right.
01:53:05.440 Would you do me a favor?
01:53:07.440 Yes.
01:53:08.440 I believe there's two, there's two, um, particles or whatever, uh, uh, minerals or whatever
01:53:17.440 that make magnets.
01:53:20.440 There's two different, uh, materials that make a magnet.
01:53:25.440 I believe that like a hundred percent of one of those comes from Russia and a hundred percent
01:53:33.440 of the other one comes from China.
01:53:36.440 I have read, but I want you to look into this.
01:53:40.440 I just read this weekend that both of those, uh, countries just signed an agreement that they
01:53:50.440 are working together now on the magnets and that this is going to be another, uh, source
01:53:59.440 of like gold for them that they will trade based on, on those, uh, materials as well.
01:54:07.440 All right.
01:54:08.440 Well, I don't, I don't know about magnets as a hard asset yet.
01:54:11.440 No, no, no, no.
01:54:12.440 I know.
01:54:13.440 No, I know.
01:54:14.440 But I, the only reason why I would bring this up is because when you look at what was being
01:54:19.440 done to our electricity all over and you look how we are just, we're being torched all over
01:54:27.440 the country and all over the world, um, things to make electricity are going to become, uh,
01:54:33.440 uh, much more, uh, valuable.
01:54:36.440 And I'm, I don't even care if it's backing up their money.
01:54:39.440 I want to know if it's true that they are the main source for all magnets.
01:54:44.440 And if they just did an agreement between each other, uh, that they're working together
01:54:50.440 on magnets.
01:54:51.440 What I can tell you is that there are a whole slew of commodities, um, you know, that need
01:54:58.440 to be, uh, dug up from the earth that we, you know, these green energy folks are relying
01:55:04.440 on for electricity and, you know, for these other components that they have that, you
01:55:09.440 know, are not only, you know, heavily available in China and Russia, but also all of the countries
01:55:15.440 where China has been investing through its Belt and Road initiatives.
01:55:19.440 So it would not be surprising that, you know, this would be one of many of them.
01:55:24.440 Um, but do we want to go back to, to the gold piece?
01:55:27.440 Yes.
01:55:28.440 Sorry.
01:55:29.440 Sorry.
01:55:30.440 No, this is, this is important stuff.
01:55:31.440 And I think that it's all related.
01:55:33.440 Um, basically, you know, we, we really have to blame the government and the federal reserve.
01:55:39.440 We have had the privilege of King dollar being the world reserve currency.
01:55:44.440 And, you know, not to say that it doesn't have downsides.
01:55:47.440 One of the downsides is that you have to manage the dollar for competing interests, the benefit
01:55:52.440 of the people in the U S as well as global stability.
01:55:56.440 Our fed and government have managed to do neither.
01:55:59.440 We have eroded purchasing power here in the U S and we have not had global stability.
01:56:05.440 So looking at China announcing, okay, we're signaling that we are increasing our reserves
01:56:12.440 could very well be a signal to say, we're trying to, you know, enhance the death, the natural
01:56:19.440 death of King dollar that the U S is putting forth.
01:56:22.440 And they have been talking to all different kinds of countries, um, about, you know, settling
01:56:28.440 in their currency, the one, which given the fact that they're a communist country, you
01:56:33.440 people aren't really excited about, but if they can then say, well, we can swap that for
01:56:38.440 gold.
01:56:39.440 We're increasing our gold.
01:56:40.440 Um, and you know, so that, that could be a signal, um, and you know, so that, that could
01:56:53.440 be a signal, uh, uh, before they invaded Ukraine, uh, they were shedding us treasury securities
01:56:57.440 and they were stocking up on gold, which is exactly what China is doing right now.
01:57:02.440 Um, and you know, so that, that could be a signal, but that relates back to a new world
01:57:08.440 order as well, from a financial standpoint, because we have never had a changing of the
01:57:13.440 financial guard without a war preceding it.
01:57:16.440 So, you know, those two things are somewhat interconnected with, you know, the dollar and,
01:57:23.440 you know, kind of the U S is global financial standing right in the middle of it.
01:57:28.440 Do you, do you, are you following this balloon nonsense at all?
01:57:32.440 I mean, I, I love balloons.
01:57:34.440 So of course I'm following nonsense.
01:57:36.440 So are you in Chicago now?
01:57:38.440 So I'm actually not in an undisclosed location where the, the spy balloon.
01:57:44.440 Right.
01:57:45.440 Right.
01:57:46.440 I understand that.
01:57:47.440 So they shot one over, uh, the great lakes.
01:57:49.440 They, I mean, they, they brought down three of these things and you know, the Pentagon is
01:57:55.440 like, well, we're not ruling out that that might be an alien ship from outer space.
01:58:01.440 And you're like, what?
01:58:03.440 I mean, this is so ridiculous.
01:58:05.440 What?
01:58:06.440 And I'm just trying to think, what would the advantage be for China?
01:58:12.440 If it indeed was a Chinese balloon to keep sending these things, that wouldn't make sense.
01:58:17.440 Would it to you?
01:58:18.440 Uh, I mean, listen, I, I'm a financial person.
01:58:22.440 I'm not a foreign policy person.
01:58:24.440 So, you know, my, my interpretation of this may, may make no sense, but it does seem, you
01:58:30.440 know, a test, you know, how strong is the U S going to react when we push them?
01:58:35.440 When we look at this administration, you know, how far can we push the envelope without them
01:58:40.440 pushing back?
01:58:41.440 So that is the, that is the, the idea.
01:58:45.440 And I, I mean, all of a sudden we're tough guys on balloons.
01:58:48.440 I mean, don't blow one up for your kid's birthday party.
01:58:50.440 Cause it, it might come under attack.
01:58:53.440 Um, but the, you know, every, and they're made in China.
01:58:57.440 So they might not be great.
01:58:58.440 Right.
01:58:59.440 And you know, everything that is being done now is to fight, uh, a war, at least a financial
01:59:06.440 war.
01:59:07.440 And I just, uh, I don't see this going, you know, we had not great relationships with
01:59:13.440 China under Donald Trump, but they were better than this.
01:59:17.440 And, uh, this is, this is just not going well.
01:59:21.440 And I I'd rather not be on the, uh, receiving end of balloons for my party from Russia and
01:59:29.440 China at the same time.
01:59:32.440 Yeah, no, it's, it's not a good, um, scenario.
01:59:35.440 And whether that war plays out, you know, purely on a financial basis where you get these
01:59:41.440 different blocks that decide to do trade in a different way, you know, Saudi Arabia started
01:59:46.440 signaling that they are open to settling oil, um, in currencies other than the dollar.
01:59:53.440 We weaponize the dollar obviously against, um, uh, against Russia, uh, during the Ukraine.
01:59:59.440 So, you know, it could be financial, you know, God forbid, it could end up having some more
02:00:04.440 physical actual war components, but all of these things, you know, speak to the deteriorating
02:00:11.440 strength of the U S you know, in general, and as a financial powerhouse.
02:00:15.440 And I think that's the concern for your listeners in terms of protecting their assets, because
02:00:21.440 you know, the U S dollar is not what it used to be.
02:00:24.440 Uh, Carol Roth, she is the author of a brand new book called you will own nothing.
02:00:31.440 We're showing the, uh, cover of it.
02:00:33.440 When does it come out, Carol?
02:00:34.440 Oh, you're really, so this is the first time the cover has ever been seen.
02:00:38.440 So a little sneak peek for the Glenn back folks.
02:00:41.440 Yeah.
02:00:42.440 Um, it comes out May 9th.
02:00:44.440 If you go to Carol Roth.com slash Glenn, you can leave your email and I'll send you more
02:00:48.440 information as that becomes available.
02:00:50.440 But we're talking about all these new financial world order things and how you can fight back.
02:00:54.440 That is the crux.
02:00:55.440 That's fantastic.
02:00:56.440 Thank you so much, Carol.
02:00:57.440 Appreciate it.
02:00:58.440 You will own nothing.
02:00:59.440 Make sure you grab your copy, uh, and pre-order now because I have a feeling it's going to
02:01:05.440 be big.
02:01:06.440 Uh, thanks Carol back in just a minute.
02:01:09.440 So Valentine's week and gold line has an offer that you might just fall in love with.
02:01:14.440 I really want you to call a gold line and get all of the information on gold or silver.

02:01:28.440 $75 per ounce this year.
02:01:31.440 And he says gold will reach $3,800 an ounce.
02:01:36.440 Uh, that's crazy.
02:01:38.440 The world's at war.
02:01:39.440 If he's right now, gold line has the new mayflower silver round, which I helped design.
02:01:45.440 It's really beautiful.

02:02:12.440 Join the conversation.
02:02:13.440 8 8 8 7 2 7 back.
02:02:16.440 The Glenn Beck program.
02:02:18.440 All right.
02:02:24.440 The New York times, uh, definitely not an, uh, an engine of disinformation has now changed
02:02:31.440 their story on the balloons.
