00:02:02.400 it's shaping up to be um we're going to start with the slippery slope now i don't know if you've
00:02:09.080 ever heard of the slippery slope but it's it's nonsense uh stew define the slippery slope
00:02:15.640 you know when one thing leads to another which leads to another and all of a sudden you find
00:02:21.540 yourself down at the bottom of that slope yeah like you can't give me any examples can you like
00:02:27.120 what there was like for example they whatever you think about gay marriage one of the concepts
00:02:33.520 of when we talked about it was that it eventually might lead to i mean if love is love and love wins
00:02:39.360 kind of anything in this realm will eventually be okay and then you'll have drag queen shows for kids
00:02:46.700 and uh maybe maps minor attractive that's ridiculous that's ridiculous
00:02:52.980 slippery slopes oh we're gonna we're gonna show you in the next 20 minutes it can't happen in america
00:03:02.000 except oops it just did
00:03:05.960 this is this is a this this is a wild ride and wake up america because it is happening right now
00:03:17.080 john wrote in about his experience with relief factory says few years ago i had a back injury
00:03:21.720 that left me in pain every single day i tried a lot of stuff but nothing would make the pain go away
00:03:26.320 for very long and fortunately i heard you yammering on about relief factor and tried it out
00:03:32.640 within a few weeks i not only felt better i felt better than i had before i got the back injury
00:03:38.780 it was amazing thank you glenn so much for relief factor you got it john thank you three week quick
00:03:45.720 start developed for you 1995 it's a dollar a day it's a trial pack and hundreds of thousands of people
00:03:51.240 have tried it and about 70 percent of them go on to order more so order your trial pack now
00:03:57.300 relief factor.com or 800 the number four relief 800 the number four relief relief factor.com feel the
00:04:06.160 difference so a trial court judge karen may uh bacchian concluded in the case of west 49th street
00:04:16.660 versus uh west 49th street llc versus o'neill that a polyamorous relationship is entitled to the same
00:04:27.940 sort of legal protections extended to two-person relationships now this is interesting because
00:04:36.480 this is exactly the slippery slope that i said you cannot say love is love
00:04:45.620 and then just make it between two people why are you limiting it to two people
00:04:50.120 you have to be able to open it up for everything the case involves three men
00:04:56.380 and a dispute with an apartment building uh the the three men uh scott anderson marcus o'neill
00:05:04.660 lived together in new york city apartment anderson held the lease was married to another man
00:05:10.760 robert romano who lived at a different address well after anderson died the apartment building argued
00:05:17.160 that o'neill didn't have the right to renew the lease because he was just anderson's roommate but
00:05:23.580 o'neill contends that it was a non-traditional family operation and he should have the right to renew the
00:05:30.740 lease the judge held that there has to be a hearing to determine whether anderson had a relationship
00:05:38.980 with all three men if he had a polyamorous relationship with all three men then they wrote
00:05:47.780 why shouldn't he be held to the same uh the same legal challenges and changes
00:05:56.960 uh that uh that happened with gay marriage she writes by the end of 2014 gay marriage was legal in 35
00:06:07.000 states through either legislation or court state action um ogerberfell how do you say it obergerfell
00:06:15.040 right versus hodge in a seminal supreme court decision that established same-sex marriage as a
00:06:21.560 constitutional right was heralded as groundbreaking however these things um
00:06:29.000 limit their holdings to two-person relationships the instant uh the instant case presents the distinct and
00:06:39.580 complex issue of significant multi-person relationships it only extended legal protections
00:06:47.160 to same-sex couples with normal familial familial characteristics to avoid going quote too far
00:06:53.300 but she asked why should that be a standard why then except for the very real possibility of implicit
00:07:03.540 majoritarian animus is the limitation of two persons inserted into the definition of a family-like
00:07:10.460 relationship for the purposes of receiving the same protections from eviction according to legally
00:07:16.260 formalized or blood relationships is two just a code word for monogamy why does a person have to be
00:07:24.620 committed to just one person and only a certain prescribed way in order to enjoy stability and
00:07:31.320 housing after the departure of a loved one she said uh the referral to normal familial activities
00:07:38.600 reveals the intent to limit the application of non-eviction protections to someone who can demonstrate
00:07:44.420 a traditional marriage but for their sexual orientation though in 1999 this decision was called a radical leap
00:07:53.280 the judges ruled that ultimately it was ruled in traditional ideology what was normal or non-traditional
00:08:01.780 in 1989 is not a barometer for what is normal or non-traditional now indeed the definition of family has morphed
00:08:09.820 considerably since 1989 so why should we stop morphing it now
00:08:17.440 no no this is about love no no this is going to be everything
00:08:24.600 but why stop there as we're talking about families california democrat awake
00:08:33.060 wake up america california democratic governor gavin newsom signed a new law thursday night to strip
00:08:43.260 rights away from parents who protest their children's blind pursuit of surgeries sold to confuse minors as
00:08:52.040 gender affirmation affirmation under the senate bill 107 introduced by san francisco area state senator scott
00:09:01.580 wiener
00:09:02.160 so california will now become a refuge for trans identifying minors who seek irreversible medical
00:09:13.100 treatments for gender dysphoria the legislation was supposedly aimed at blocking red states from
00:09:20.240 enforcing laws barring extreme treatments for underage victims instead invite those minors to seek
00:09:27.000 surgeries in california listen to this in california we believe in equality and acceptance we believe that
00:09:37.420 no one should be persecuted or prosecuted for getting the care they need including gender affirming
00:09:44.660 care this is what he said when he signed it into law parents know what's best for their kids and they should
00:09:52.200 be able to make decisions around the health of their children without fear we must take a stand for
00:09:57.980 parental choice oh my gosh my eyes are shooting blood really gavin parents know best but get your kids
00:10:10.080 vaccinated or will take them away from you really parents know best really parents know best
00:10:23.660 so if one parent says this is good and the other parent says it's not good which parent knows best
00:10:36.040 bing bing bing the answer the parent that agrees with california
00:10:42.000 the bill undermines parental choice by empowering the state to strip custody from any parent that refuses to
00:10:52.940 support their children's demand for gender affirming care so parents don't know best just like every
00:11:01.820 freaking
00:11:02.720 just like every policy that we happen to be seeing
00:11:09.500 from the progressive side and the marxist radical revolutionary side of today's political landscape
00:11:19.820 if you agree with us you're fine if you don't agree with us you're an enemy of the state
00:11:27.820 now here's the great news it doesn't just apply to californian and californian parents
00:11:37.080 this applies to all parents if your kid steps over the border into california
00:11:46.340 they can you can lose custody of your own children and by the way it's i guess not good enough to have
00:11:57.360 to make sure that your kids aren't going to california to get some radical uh mastectomy
00:12:03.540 or puberty blockers no they don't have to go to california because of telehealth california
00:12:13.560 doctors can now give those puberty blockers to your children in texas florida utah michigan new york
00:12:24.480 got it because of california you've just lost your children
00:12:35.500 now the medical organizations are very upset with what's going on the american medical association
00:12:44.580 has sent a letter to attorney general merrick garland wow you know just this is weird
00:12:53.660 it's a letter it's a letter that's i mean almost the same as the letters that came from the local
00:12:59.780 school ed boards those boards of education they were very upset hey hey hey we're being threatened
00:13:07.800 you want to just categorize a whole group of people as terrorists for us wake up america
00:13:16.600 the american medical association has sent a letter to the attorney general calling on him to
00:13:25.320 investigate the organization's individuals and entities coordinating provoking and carrying out
00:13:31.620 bomb threats and threats of personal violence against children's hospitals and physicians across the u.s

00:20:34.160 on the attack character assassination is their next step uh relative to christian pro-life people

00:21:25.660 in medical ethics anymore they're interested in social uh re uh redevelopment but the only way that
00:21:34.500 that the uh kind of the left if you will will change society is through you know dismemberment
00:21:41.560 death and uh essentially mutilation that's their that's their idea of social change our idea of social
00:21:48.420 change is from the heart out we believe all people are made in the image of god and deserving of
00:21:54.960 blessing and protection from the womb to the tomb and the only way you can change society is by
00:21:59.460 changing people's heart you know and that's that's that's totally foreign to people who who who want

00:24:31.080 slope and the things that are happening to your family and what the doj is doing about it which is
00:24:37.920 uh worse than nothing now let me talk to you a little bit about something that came up over the
00:24:44.000 weekend and i have been trying to figure it out and talk to some experts it took me a couple of days to
00:24:49.640 get get to a place to where i could really explain it to you uh one of the things that's happening in
00:24:55.360 the market is you've got two big banks deutsche bank and uh credit suisse that are about to default
00:25:02.500 or at least it looks like it let me take you back in history back in march 2020 right at the dawn of
00:25:08.680 the covet 19 panic some interesting things happened on wall street march 9th the dow jones industrial
00:25:14.860 average lost 2 000 points that's more than a 10 crash in a single day at the time it was one of
00:25:23.080 the largest single day declines in the u.s history of uh of stocks more than 1.8 trillion dollars was
00:25:31.040 wiped out from the u.s pensions and retirement funds in a single day march 10th the very next day
00:25:38.800 the federal reserve began making emergency loans to what were considered to be systematically important
00:25:45.800 banks that is banks that are just too big to fail now it's important to remember that we didn't learn
00:25:53.000 about these emergency loans made during march of 2020 just as the who and the cdc were declaring
00:25:59.660 a pandemic we didn't learn about those loans until two years later because the fed isn't they're no
00:26:06.900 longer required to tell you who they're making loans to or for how much until two full years after it
00:26:15.020 makes the loans so they say that's not to make sure that nobody is panicking well investors if they knew
00:26:21.660 in real time these banks needed cash it would cause a run on the banks so for example on march 9th the
00:26:29.300 dow lost 2 000 points and more than 10 of its value so on march 10th and we know this now because two
00:26:35.620 years have passed the u.s federal reserve made 112 billion dollars in emergency loans to 24 banks
00:26:44.260 stocks rebounded slightly but then the first deaths started being reported from covid at retirement homes
00:26:51.240 trump canceled the international travel and within a couple of days stocks were down another 1500 points
00:26:57.020 shedding four trillion dollars in wealth from the portfolios of americans in just a couple of days
00:27:03.320 for its part the fed continue lending distributing a total of one trillion dollars one trillion dollars
00:27:11.860 in emergency loans to banks in just a six-day period remember this is two weeks into the pandemic
00:27:18.760 well before businesses were shut down at this point all that had really happened to the economy was that
00:27:26.320 stocks you know the forward-looking investment vehicle were declining but this was enough for the fed to
00:27:32.460 print one trillion dollars in new currency and loan it out to the banks considered too big to fail
00:27:38.940 not just our banks no no not just the u.s banks some of the largest borrowers in the past 20 years from
00:27:46.240 emergency loans from our federal reserve have been foreign banks and investment firms uh nomura securities
00:27:54.780 out of japan bnc paribus the french bank barclays bank out of the uk all of these are the largest borrowers from the fed
00:28:05.700 so was the largest swiss bank credit suisse the largest swiss bank credit suisse were they on that list oh yeah
00:28:18.780 just in six days from march 10th to march 16th 2020 credit suisse requested and was granted 50 billion
00:28:27.180 dollars in emergency loans more than seven percent of the total that the fed had loaned to 24 banks
00:28:33.300 but that was covid right now it may seem odd that the central bank of the united states needed to loan the
00:28:41.500 largest swiss bank 50 billion dollars in just a few days don't they have their own central bank
00:28:47.500 but let's just chalk it up to yet another covid emergency we had to do something we had to bail
00:28:54.500 out the largest banks in japan switzerland uk france i mean it was a pandemic so now fast forward to 2022
00:29:01.380 all those banks got their covid bailout in january 2022 the dow jones industrial average hit a new
00:29:10.080 all-time high so clearly the bailouts worked and the banks made all this money
00:29:15.340 the banks were able to recover and get past the pandemic right i mean those trillions in loans to
00:29:22.200 banks skyrocketed inflation and uh you know added to the currency circulation and inflation
00:29:29.020 is defined by you know too much currency too much money chasing too few goods but we save the banks
00:29:36.440 right we restored the stock market and set ourselves out to a record record uh recovery well yesterday
00:29:44.600 credit suisse flagged as the too big to fail bank by the u.s federal reserve their stock hit an all-time
00:29:53.200 low they shed more than 65 of its value losing 20 of its value in one day worse investors are
00:30:05.940 effectively betting now that credit suite swiss that credit suisse will go belly up next year
00:30:12.840 we know this because of i hate to bring this word up credit default swaps i'm not going to get you know
00:30:21.000 i'm not going to get all big short on you but this is when you have the bonds and you think uh-oh i think
00:30:30.660 we might lose the bank might go out i buy an insurance policy okay credit default default and i swap i swap what
00:30:41.460 i'm holding i give it to you and i get the insurance money okay credit default swaps it's a way to bet on
00:30:48.140 the down it's horrible but now 30 percent it went up these the price to insurance to insure went up
00:30:57.160 25 percent yesterday yesterday 30 percent of people are now betting that credit suisse is going to collapse
00:31:06.400 so what's going on why would it collapse again i'm not going to go into all of this stuff i just need you
00:31:16.540 to understand the big points and you will understand this this will take your breath away
00:31:20.880 again remember we all talked about credit default swaps and derivatives oh derivatives oh that's
00:31:29.940 horrible
00:31:30.340 without getting into all of that remember when we said that the global deliver derivatives market
00:31:41.280 after 2008 started going back up again and it surpassed what happened in 2008 and the global
00:31:48.980 derivatives market was about a hundred trillion dollars and we're like a hundred trillion dollars
00:31:54.280 that's horrible and we raised the alarm they haven't learned anything in fact it's gotten worse
00:32:01.100 then it rose to 500 trillion dollars just a couple of years ago and we raised the alarm again
00:32:08.720 any idea where the derivatives market is right now after two years of pandemic two years of biden inflation
00:32:21.640 and after stocks have lost 20 percent of their value since january where's the derivative market
00:32:29.620 one quadrillion dollars
00:32:35.920 no way out one quadrillion that's one thousand trillion dollars
00:32:46.820 that's what's held by the 24 largest banks in the world one thousand trillion dollars
00:32:56.900 you haven't even begun to feel the pain of what these people have done
00:33:00.960 derivatives have been around since the 1920s but we have gone insane
00:33:10.400 now last year when a private wealth fund defaulted it cost the global banks more than 11 billion dollars
00:33:20.140 in derivatives losses more than 5 billion was absorbed by credit suisse bank that's nearly half the global losses
00:33:29.120 of one firm that just had 11 billion we're we have one quadrillion
00:33:38.560 now
00:33:41.980 if i'm you
00:33:45.180 i could easily say it's a you know german bank or a swiss bank and it's not my problem
00:33:52.060 but it is your problem because it is your dollar your currency
00:33:57.620 provided by your federal reserve why are there not people standing in front of the federal reserve
00:34:05.740 demanding answers and holding signs up
00:34:10.660 one quadrillion dollars
00:34:14.160 where does inflation come from
00:34:17.820 you think it's all government spending
00:34:21.280 collectively since the fed started emergency lending operations in september of 2019
00:34:26.840 and note for you conspiracy theorists out there september of 2019 was five full months
00:34:32.820 before there was a single positive covid case in the u.s and we were talking about it in september of 2019
00:34:40.040 the foreign banks have collectively borrowed six trillion dollars from the federal reserve
00:34:47.880 now here's the funny thing six trillion dollars has already gone out
00:34:56.500 one quadrillion dollars if the federal reserve decides to lend credit suisse another 500 billion dollars today or tomorrow
00:35:06.340 to bail itself out of whatever mess it's in
00:35:10.360 you
00:35:13.360 the one who's actually paying for this
00:35:17.660 you won't know
00:35:19.640 for another two years
00:35:21.840 because under dodd frank you know the one that was going to fix everything
00:35:26.860 the fed's reporting requirements
00:35:29.580 now allow for a two-year delay
00:35:33.520 so if we are bailing out germany and switzerland today

00:38:05.800 when i came in and and was going through all the show prep i was just sick to my stomach too much
00:38:09.700 too much at once yeah you know you the overwhelm the system thing comes to mind you know there's just
00:38:14.620 too much to deal with right now right well but the the key is to motivate you to do um a few things
00:38:23.820 one make sure you're going out and vote you're voting you're getting everybody you know to get
00:38:29.780 out and vote it has to be stopped at the ballot box it has to be stopped at the ballot box so you
00:38:36.840 have a chance to take over the house and the senate and it has to be done it has to be done
00:38:44.260 um we are on a uh a death spiral now that is extraordinary and things like the ama are being
00:38:53.860 weaponized and uh you know you don't come back from that easily and um and there's something else that
00:39:03.060 i want to talk to you about uh that we can do and also i'm going to give you some information
00:39:09.200 uh on what you can do financially we'll give that to you in also in hour three but some real things
00:39:19.760 that you that you just don't dismiss please don't dismiss um three things that you can do um
00:39:28.080 and they need to happen now we have uh chad robishow coming on in just a second he is
00:39:35.020 a remarkable guy he has found uh mass graves well he hasn't found them but he is verifying
00:39:42.780 the mass graves uh in um in ukraine uh looks like war crimes are being committed i don't know what we
00:39:52.220 do with this you know i i i feel horrible because this is the situation we were in in world war ii
00:39:59.560 where you're like okay so atrocities are happening and they seem to be happening big time but how can
00:40:06.500 we get involved in this and make it better and only make it worse
00:40:09.480 i mean i guess that's the line they're trying to walk you know with with giving a bunch of money
00:40:19.440 and weapons to ukraine to have them fight it for us but i just you wonder how long russia is going to
00:40:28.340 sit there and say oh well sure that missile was built by the united states but since someone else
00:40:33.920 pressed the button i think we're okay with it just doesn't seem like the type of thing vladdy is going
00:40:38.880 to sit back and say ah this makes a lot of sense to me right especially as he gets more desperate
00:40:43.180 uh the more it works the more desperate he gets the democrats are desperate in georgia uh i
00:40:51.000 sincerely question the timing of this uh but uh hersel walker is uh in trouble with his son
00:41:01.120 uh and we'll talk about that later on the program as well the glenn back program the greatest trick
00:41:07.500 the devil ever uh pulled was convincing the world that he doesn't exist that's a line from a movie
00:41:14.240 character but it is profound and absolutely true and now he's going a step further uh oh you know
00:41:22.020 what these things aren't that bad pornography is a scourge in this country it tears families apart
00:41:29.460 it ruins marriages it negatively changes the way young men see women as they enter in the world of

00:42:39.560 Stand up straight and hold the light.
00:42:44.660 It's a long, long day and time to rise.
00:42:50.660 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
00:42:56.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:43:01.660 Hey, everybody.
00:43:03.660 NATO just told us yesterday that there's a missing Russian sub.
00:43:08.660 That's great.
00:43:10.660 Because it's the world's most advanced submarine.
00:43:13.660 And it has something called Poseidon missiles.
00:43:16.660 Wait until you hear what they do.
00:43:18.660 This is great.
00:43:20.660 We, NATO, might have wanted to keep an eye on that sub a little bit more than maybe you were.
00:43:26.660 No, we were watching it.
00:43:28.660 Did you fall asleep?
00:43:30.660 It just didn't disappear.
00:43:31.660 It kind of went chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga out of the harbor.
00:43:37.660 How'd you miss that?
00:43:38.660 Anyway, we have that and Chad Robichaux, who is the founder and CEO of Mighty Oaks.
00:43:47.660 He is also the co-founder of Save Our Allies.
00:43:50.660 He's a remarkable man who has been working on the front lines in Afghanistan, now in Ukraine, trying to save people, get people out.
00:44:02.660 I asked him, where the hell is all of our money going in Ukraine?
00:44:06.660 There's a Pulitzer price just waiting to be picked up from anybody who actually wants to go do that and look into that money.
00:44:16.660 And what is happening on the front lines?
00:44:20.660 He witnessed last week mass graves of war crimes.
00:44:25.660 Chad joins us in 60 seconds.
00:44:27.660 Nothing better than the summer given away to cooler weather.
00:44:33.660 You know, you come home to a place that feels warm and inviting.
00:44:37.660 Last Friday, we had the first football kind of weather.
00:44:42.660 Everybody was like, oh, this is great.
00:44:44.660 This is football weather.
00:44:45.660 Like, it's 77.
00:44:48.660 That's not exactly football weather, but, you know, if you're from Texas, okay.
00:44:52.660 But when you come home and your house feels warm and inviting, if it doesn't feel that way, maybe you can spruce things up just a little bit.

00:45:53.660 Chad, welcome to the program, sir.
00:45:55.660 How are you?
00:45:57.660 Good.
00:45:58.660 Is this Glenn?
00:45:59.660 Yes.
00:46:00.660 You're on.
00:46:01.660 How are you, sir?
00:46:02.660 I'm good.
00:46:03.660 I'm good.
00:46:04.660 Thanks for having me on, Glenn.
00:46:05.660 You bet.
00:46:06.660 Where are you right now?
00:46:07.660 I am down in the Woodlands, Texas.
00:46:10.660 Okay.
00:46:11.660 Good, good, good.
00:46:12.660 You're home.
00:46:13.660 I saw you about four weeks ago, and you had just come from the front lines over in Ukraine.
00:46:21.660 And I said, what are you seeing?
00:46:24.660 And you said, well, I'm not seeing really any significant American relief.
00:46:30.660 Yeah.
00:46:31.660 And I'm not.
00:46:32.660 No.
00:46:33.660 And that was the same on this trip, Glenn.
00:46:34.660 And it's really, it's not only sad and unfortunate, it needs to be addressed.
00:46:40.660 I mean, there is no congressional oversight on this money.
00:46:43.660 This money is going into a black hole.
00:46:45.660 And in any country in the world, it would be-
00:46:48.660 Bad.
00:46:49.660 It would be bad.
00:46:50.660 I mean, people are people, and governments are corrupt, and it's going to end up where
00:46:54.660 it shouldn't, and the money's not ending up where it's going.
00:46:56.660 It's U.S. taxpayers' dollars, millions of dollars.
00:46:59.660 And not only that, it's being sent because it's needed.
00:47:04.660 It's needed to save lives and restore humanity, and it's not being used for that.
00:47:09.660 So do you think that's us, or do you think that's them, or a combination of the two?
00:47:14.660 I think it's a combination of the two.
00:47:16.660 You know, I've been getting a lot of slack from people, like, why are you over in Ukraine
00:47:19.660 helping?
00:47:20.660 Ukraine's a corrupt country.
00:47:21.660 I'm like, well, you know what else is corrupt?
00:47:22.660 Washington, D.C.
00:47:23.660 And, you know, governments are corrupt around the world.
00:47:27.660 Certainly, Ukraine has had a history of corruption, and it's been a hotbed of money laundering
00:47:32.660 and things like that.
00:47:33.660 But so has Washington, D.C., and the fact that this money is not being audited or accounted
00:47:38.660 for or, you know, has any kind of oversight, just leaves room for corruption, both in Ukraine
00:47:45.660 and Washington, D.C.
00:47:46.660 And I think it would not be difficult at all.
00:47:50.660 We have an embassy back in Ukraine now.
00:47:52.660 It would not be difficult to have correct congressional oversight over these funds and make sure
00:47:56.660 they go to the right place.
00:47:57.660 It's needed.
00:47:58.660 I do believe the money is needed there.
00:48:00.660 I know that not everyone agrees with that, but, you know, I believe we should be supporting
00:48:05.660 these people, not in the realm of the money that we are giving them.
00:48:08.660 I think that was too big of a blank check.
00:48:10.660 And, you know, a lot can be done with a lot less money, but it actually has to get to where
00:48:15.660 it belongs.
00:48:16.660 And, you know, I just, as Mighty Oaks and, you know, Mercury One, you guys helped us
00:48:21.660 financially, Glenn, and we just brought $20,000 in medical supplies to special operations
00:48:26.660 on the front line.
00:48:27.660 When I say medical supplies, IFACs, individual first aid kits, they go in as troops because
00:48:31.660 they don't have them.
00:48:32.660 And they're like, please give us anything.
00:48:34.660 So not only did we bring $20,000 worth of IFACs to get this special forces unit, but
00:48:39.660 we brought a ER trial doctor who trains army special forces medics.
00:48:43.660 We brought him with us to teach them how to use that.
00:48:45.660 And that's something that we did.
00:48:47.660 We did that trip for maybe it cost us $40,000 to do that trip.
00:48:51.660 You know, and that was, they were so thankful for that.
00:48:54.660 They were like, that's lifesaving training that we were able to give them.
00:48:57.660 And meanwhile, you know, billions of dollars isn't reaching them.
00:49:00.660 Why can't those billions of dollars go to things like that?
00:49:03.660 Yeah, because it's going through government and dirty hands every step of the way.
00:49:08.660 You're also delivering something else along with the medical care.
00:49:12.660 Are you not?
00:49:14.660 That's right.
00:49:15.660 We, you know, Mighty Oaks does, for U.S. service members, we've done over, you know,
00:49:19.660 over 400,000 active duty U.S. service members with our spiritual resiliency program.
00:49:23.660 And in 2016, we decided to bring this to our allied troops around the world.
00:49:27.660 We went to Ukraine before in 2017 and 2018 to do this.
00:49:30.660 And so now we're back there on the front lines.
00:49:32.660 And we go there.
00:49:33.660 A typical day will be, we'll give them some classes that are non-lethal aid, like bailout procedures for the personal safety, medical classes.
00:49:40.660 We'll give them resources and supplies.
00:49:42.660 And then we'll give them resources that are spiritual.
00:49:45.660 We give out the audio Bible sticks to them and some other resources to help work on their mental and spiritual health.
00:49:51.660 And at the end of the day, once we build that rapport with them all day, we're able to talk to them veteran to veteran,
00:49:56.660 combat veteran to combat veteran, peer to peer about spiritual resiliency and mental resiliency.
00:50:00.660 That way they can stay in a fight to protect their homes and their families and their freedom.
00:50:05.660 And, you know, we know from our experience as warfighters and, you know, that's 20 years of war that we just went through,
00:50:11.660 that there's a lot of things you can have on the battlefield, but nothing's more essential than having a strong spiritual foundation.
00:50:16.660 And we are able to share the gospel of Christ, you know, with these guys.
00:50:19.660 Chad, tell me about the war crimes that you witnessed.
00:50:26.660 You know, I've been seeing this since February, since we've been going there, Glenn, but nothing worse than the last few trips because I'm getting further.
00:50:34.660 I'm getting more into the front lines.
00:50:36.660 I just was in a Zoom.
00:50:37.660 I was two hours east of the Zoom, which is pretty much Russia.
00:50:40.660 And that had been occupied for six months.
00:50:43.660 And in some of the areas we saw and I'll get to the mass graves.
00:50:47.660 But one of the things that I think is important to know is every I'm not exaggerating when I say this.
00:50:52.660 Every home, every hospital, every school, every structure.
00:50:58.660 It's almost it's almost impressive as somebody has been in combat.
00:51:02.660 Impressive to say they hit every single structure.
00:51:05.660 And these are military targets.
00:51:07.660 These civilians.
00:51:08.660 By the way, we're showing some videos on Blaze TV right now.
00:51:13.660 Some of them are graphic.
00:51:14.660 So look away.
00:51:15.660 But I've seen these earlier.
00:51:18.660 And the apartment buildings.
00:51:21.660 Yeah.
00:51:22.660 The apartment buildings.
00:51:23.660 I mean, what you're saying is is true.
00:51:26.660 There's really nothing left.
00:51:29.660 Nothing.
00:51:30.660 It's it's all rubble.
00:51:32.660 And you say that's different than than usual.
00:51:35.660 And in wars like this.
00:51:37.660 Absolutely.
00:51:38.660 I mean, you know, I mean, I mean, even the Taliban is in this rule.
00:51:42.660 I mean, the Taliban attack civilians.
00:51:43.660 You know, it's terrorism.
00:51:44.660 They want to they want to intimidate people.
00:51:47.660 But this is an intimidation.
00:51:49.660 This is I mean, you're talking like those some of those buildings in the video.
00:51:52.660 You've seen it look like two buildings.
00:51:54.660 It's one building.
00:51:55.660 It's a five story building blown out to the ground.
00:51:58.660 And this was women and children and civilians living in it.
00:52:01.660 And this wasn't one that was accidental.
00:52:03.660 This is every apartment building in the area had airdropped missile right into the roof of that apartment building that blew it to the ground and killed thousands of civilians.
00:52:12.660 And this isn't being reported.
00:52:13.660 I'm happy you're allowing me to get this news right now, but it's not being reported.
00:52:17.660 And and then, you know, you.
00:52:19.660 So this is again, this is not this is not a collateral damage.
00:52:23.660 This is not, you know, indiscriminate fire.
00:52:26.660 This is direct targeting of civilian complexes and civilians, which is a war crime.
00:52:33.660 And, you know, in the international courts, the ICC, the International Criminal Court in the U.N.
00:52:39.660 needs to be stepping in because this is not should never be allowed, regardless of Ukraine, Russia, political sides like who none of that.
00:52:46.660 But none of that. This would never be allowed in this point of our civilization to attack civilians this way.
00:52:51.660 And after we spent the day I spent I was with the chief of Dean, who's the chief of the entire law enforcement for all of Ukraine.
00:53:01.660 No, he'd be like over essentially over like the FBI, CIA, everything for all of Ukraine.
00:53:07.660 And he was sent there by the government to make sure they secured a zoom after they recaptured it.
00:53:12.660 So we were with him as I drove to meet him.
00:53:15.660 Myself and my partner driving in this in this combat area to meet him and to make fighters flew over.
00:53:20.660 They did a gun run, drop bombs over. I've been a lot of war zones and never had air, air, enemy air over us.
00:53:27.660 I mean, we always controlled the air. So that was kind of a pretty crazy scenario for me.
00:53:32.660 We had a hind helicopter fly by. We get to the front where we're with them while they're fighting.
00:53:37.660 There's we're getting shelled and rocketed within 100 meters of us and the small arms fire.
00:53:42.660 And you've probably seen some of the videos I sent with, you know, we probably counted about I probably counted about 60 Russian soldiers.
00:53:47.660 They were like 18, 19, 20 years old.
00:53:50.660 It's sad to know that many of them probably don't even know why they were there and they were dead or dying.
00:53:55.660 And one of the things I did see of the Ukrainians as we were moving forward and they were they were dying Russian soldiers.
00:54:00.660 They were rendering aid. And and that shows who's the good guys, because these guys are rendering aid.
00:54:05.660 Meanwhile, these Russians had occupied their homes and killed their family members for six months.
00:54:11.660 And the Ukrainians are still rendering aid. I thought that was that really stood out to me.
00:54:15.660 Who's on the right side? I want to play a clip from you out on the field where you're talking about mass graves.
00:54:23.660 Here it is. This area is one thousand and two hundred people are missing from this area.
00:54:33.660 They found one thousand one hundred bodies in this area and they were burned before the buried.
00:54:40.660 So you can tell they tried to destroy the evidence of the mass killings.
00:54:45.660 Most of the people were their hands were tied, some in front, their backs and behind their backs in executed style.
00:54:52.660 So we're not just talking about ballistic missiles and shelling, which we've seen.
00:54:58.660 I've seen firsthand driving through cities that are just leveled to rubble civilian targets, civilian neighborhoods.
00:55:04.660 But we're talking beyond that just with indirect fire.
00:55:07.660 And this is not indiscriminate fire because, you know, we drove through areas and me and my teammate are driving through like they strategically hit every structure, every house, every building, every school, every hospital.
00:55:21.660 But now beyond that there, once they take these areas, they're bringing these civilians out here in the woods, tying their hands behind their back and executing them, burning their bodies to hide the evidence, putting them in mass graves.
00:55:36.660 And you saw these people with their hands tied behind their backs in the you saw this yourself.
00:55:44.660 I saw it myself when. Yeah.
00:55:46.660 And, you know, there were there were two mass graves that we were brought to.
00:55:51.660 One was 474 people.
00:55:52.660 They counted specifically to others estimated about eleven hundred people and mostly all civilians, mostly because most of the men would have been out fighting.
00:55:59.660 Most of them were women, a lot of children.
00:56:02.660 And it appeared it appeared what they were using the graves for.
00:56:05.660 When I say eleven hundred people, I don't think they killed eleven hundred people one time.
00:56:09.660 But I think over six months they did was, you know, as they arrested people, they brought them there, you know, pride bound and handcuffed.
00:56:15.660 And then and then would kill them on that side, just push them in as a place of disposal.
00:56:20.660 That's that would be my I don't have evidence of that, but be my interpretation of from what I saw it happen.
00:56:25.660 And then as Ukraine came in and tried and was retaking that area and it appeared they tried to burn the bodies to maybe hide the evidence.
00:56:33.660 But, you know, burning bodies is harder than it sounds.
00:56:36.660 You got to use a lot of fuel.
00:56:37.660 And so then they tried to bury it and then they vacated the area.
00:56:41.660 When I say they vacated, they must have left in a hurry because they left seventy four tanks in this area.
00:56:46.660 Chad, what so what do we what do we do?
00:56:51.660 You know, this to me, Glenn, this is a this only gets worse.
00:56:57.660 Either it Russia's losing.
00:56:59.660 So I think Putin has to show strength.
00:57:02.660 So I think the only scenarios is that he's going to escalate and do something radical, even more radical than this.
00:57:09.660 Or, you know, you have the other scenarios you have the whiskey who can't because the whiskey in the eyes of Ukraine, they're winning.
00:57:16.660 And as they're winning, you can't he's not going to go to negotiation table.
00:57:19.660 So it would also require Putin to do something that would force him the negotiation table.
00:57:23.660 But I think what we could do as a world and I don't mean as America, but as the world is NATO needs to accept Ukraine in the in the NATO or and or the U.N.
00:57:34.660 and the International Criminal Court needs to recognize these war crimes and these human rights violations and hold hold Putin accountable.
00:57:41.660 And that's what the U.N. is for. That's what that's what the International Criminal Court is for before these exact scenarios.
00:57:48.660 But we're not seeing them take action. So what we could do, you and I, is exactly what we're doing right now is exposing this.
00:57:55.660 I believe if I would have not leaked this information to Fox, if they would have if I'd have reported it right to the United States government or it would have been swept away because they don't want it to be known because if it's known, then they have to do something about it.
00:58:07.660 And so we need to, you know, make sure that it's reporting from the front lines.
00:58:11.660 You know, unfortunately, journalists can't make it to these a lot of these areas because it's so volatile.
00:58:16.660 And and I get that. But the reporting needs to be needs to be what it needs to be exposed.
00:58:23.660 And and, you know, our government needs to be held accountable for these billions of dollars so that Ukraine could if we are going to give if our government's going to decide to give this money, then it needs to go where it belongs.
00:58:33.660 Again, I think you and I both agree that this much money is makes the problem worse.
00:58:37.660 But, you know, if we are going to give it, then give it and have good oversight.
00:58:42.660 If we're going to have an international criminal court system, then use it for times like this.
00:58:47.660 The U.N., this is what it's for. This is what the U.N. is for.
00:58:50.660 And, you know, I also believe NATO at this point, NATO should accept Ukraine.
00:58:54.660 And by the way, in the last I think just a couple of days ago, President Zawinski applied again for for Ukraine to be accepted into NATO.
00:59:03.660 Chad, thank you so much for doing everything that you do.
00:59:07.660 I know your heart is in the right place. I know who you serve.
00:59:11.660 And I can't imagine what this does for somebody who went through PTSD to be over there again and seeing these things.
00:59:21.660 So I appreciate your service to him and to us. So thank you so much, Chad.
00:59:27.660 Thank you again. God bless. And thanks for all your support, too. We couldn't do it without you.

00:59:46.660 All right. The pain that you're carrying around every day.
00:59:49.660 What are you going to do when it's a thing of the past?
00:59:52.660 What kinds of things are you going to go back and do?
00:59:54.660 You haven't been able to do maybe in a couple of years because pain was always standing in your way.
00:59:58.660 I can tell you what I went back to doing painting. I can paint again yesterday.
01:00:04.660 I started a commission for somebody and I don't know why I said yes to it.
01:00:11.660 It's the hardest painting. It's about it's about Corrie Ten Boom and her sister.
01:00:17.660 And it's maybe I hope it will be a beautiful painting and inspiring.
01:00:23.660 But holy cow, it's been hard. I've spent like six hours painting yesterday.
01:00:28.660 I could not have held a paintbrush just five years ago for more than probably two minutes.
01:00:34.660 Literally. This has helped me so much.

01:01:01.660 Ten seconds. Station ID.
01:01:11.660 So what do we do?
01:01:15.660 I mean, what do we do?
01:01:17.660 I mean, I don't feel comfortable.
01:01:19.660 I don't want to go to war.
01:01:21.660 We've we've had enough.
01:01:23.660 I don't want to go to war.
01:01:25.660 And.
01:01:27.660 And I don't trust our own Pentagon to execute a war with this president in a way that would not make things just a hundred thousand times worse.
01:01:37.660 Yeah.
01:01:38.660 I mean, our first responsibility, of course, is to our own country and our own citizens and nuclear war with Russia.
01:01:44.660 Bad idea.
01:01:45.660 Negative for those individuals.
01:01:47.660 Yeah.
01:01:48.660 It would be suboptimal for our citizens.
01:01:51.660 So you have to avoid that.
01:01:53.660 Right.
01:01:54.660 And this is, of course, an advantage for Russia in this conflict, because the reason probably why they're threatening all of these things all the time.
01:02:00.660 They know we've told them, I mean, Biden's told them that we're not going to war.
01:02:05.660 We're not going to use nuclear weapons ourselves.
01:02:07.660 We're not going to do any of these things.
01:02:09.660 Now, if this thing escalates, who knows what happens?
01:02:14.660 And this is why I think it's undersold as a priority of our attention right now.
01:02:19.660 It is one of those things that could swing out of control relatively quickly.
01:02:24.660 And the bad part of this is the more successful we are in helping Ukraine, the more desperate Putin gets and the more likely this stuff happens.
01:02:37.660 And the fact that we are now shipping natural gas or LP over to Ukraine and to Europe to make up for the deficit of those now downed gas lines.
01:02:51.660 It only makes us a bigger target as well.
01:02:54.660 I'm going to tell you something I don't think anybody saw from Granholm, our secretary of energy.
01:02:59.660 I don't think anybody was really paying attention to what she did last week.
01:03:02.660 We were and we'll tell you about that.
01:03:05.660 And the missing submarine just kind of disappeared.
01:03:09.660 NATO, we're watching it, but it disappeared.
01:03:12.660 Did it or were you not really watching it as closely as you should have?
01:03:18.660 More on this in a minute.
01:03:32.660 You know, not every day you come across somebody that can pivot from one project to the next and hit it out of the park every single time.
01:03:49.660 But that's what Mike Lindell has done at MyPillow.

01:05:03.660 My job is to warn you of things that are coming.
01:05:15.660 I don't think it is to tell you how to fix it.
01:05:20.660 Although if well, let's talk about this.
01:05:24.660 Are you a long term thinker or a short term thinker?
01:05:28.660 I try to be a long term thinker.
01:05:30.660 Many times, particularly at meals, I'm a short term thinker.
01:05:33.660 Yes.
01:05:34.660 Okay.
01:05:35.660 Me too.
01:05:36.660 Ice cream is in front of me.
01:05:37.660 Very short thinker.
01:05:38.660 Goldfish thinking.
01:05:39.660 Okay.
01:05:40.660 Yeah.
01:05:41.660 But if you're a short term thinker, this next segment, your mood's not going to improve
01:05:49.660 much.
01:05:50.660 If you're a long term thinker in half an hour, your mood is going to improve a great deal
01:05:56.660 because I don't have an answer yesterday.
01:05:59.660 I several times gave you a warning about something.
01:06:03.660 And lo and behold, an answer appears to show you the way to make that happen.
01:06:09.660 And he'll be joining me in just about 30 minutes.
01:06:13.660 So don't go anywhere.
01:06:16.660 Now, do you ever remember merchant marines?
01:06:19.660 I was a merchant marine.
01:06:21.660 When I was a kid, I didn't even know what that was.
01:06:22.660 What the hell is a merchant marine?
01:06:24.660 Is that some sort of a offshoot of the Marines?
01:06:27.660 No, it was just somebody was working merchant ships, merchant merchant convoys.
01:06:34.660 What are those?
01:06:35.660 Those are just like the big, you know, those big, huge ships that come in with all the,
01:06:40.660 you know, cargo on the back of it, the cargo ships.
01:06:45.660 Those are merchant marines that are running those things.
01:06:48.660 Okay.
01:06:49.660 We had a problem with merchant ships back in the 1930s.
01:06:55.660 As things progress with the Russian war, the more this thing echoes the buildup of World War II.
01:07:06.660 I think we're somewhere between 1936 and 1938, the invasion of the Rhineland and the invasion of Poland.
01:07:14.660 But it's interesting because headlines this week have shown that a cabinet level secretary of the United States has called for merchant convoys and armed escorts for the LNG ships going from the US to Europe.
01:07:30.660 That's natural gas or propane.
01:07:32.660 Okay.
01:07:33.660 It was the secretary of energy asking the secretary of defense to provide increased security for private naval vessels.
01:07:42.660 Did you know that?
01:07:45.660 Now, they didn't use convoy or escorts, but you just just want to make sure that the Pentagon is providing some security for these carriers that are on their way to Europe and they need increased security.
01:07:59.660 Now, how are we going to increase security for liquid natural gas with 80,000 tons of displacement?
01:08:11.660 And by law, they can carry no armaments, no defensive system of any kind.
01:08:18.660 See, this is why Nord Stream was so serious, because it's a private infrastructure.
01:08:26.660 And if the Russians claim we did it, then they can claim, well, our private infrastructure is a target as well.
01:08:37.660 So, the naval responsibility for all of our shipping security in the Atlantic Ocean falls to a carrier group, a brand new carrier, the most sophisticated carrier ever, the Gerald R. Ford carrier group.
01:08:53.660 You know, Gerald R. Ford doesn't instill confidence in me, but now this has been at sea trials for the last two years.
01:09:01.660 It's the newest of our carriers.
01:09:05.660 And it's been, some would say, plagued with issues for their launch system, the electromagnetic launch system, the elevators, the radar system.
01:09:18.660 It comes out of Norfolk, Virginia.
01:09:21.660 So, riddle me this.
01:09:25.660 Is it a coincidence that suddenly, and a few months early, based on previous announcement, the Gerald R. Ford has suddenly been declared, oh, it's combat ready.
01:09:37.660 Oh, no, you know what, we're going to deploy it, you know, what time is it?
01:09:42.660 Soon, in the Atlantic for the very first time.
01:09:45.660 When did they announce that?
01:09:47.660 Literally the day after Secretary Granholm said, we need increased security in the Atlantic.
01:09:53.660 Suddenly, you know, the launching system and the radar and all of the, no, no, it works.
01:10:00.660 It's miraculous.
01:10:01.660 You know what?
01:10:02.660 It was just a light bulb that was out.
01:10:04.660 We just had to switch that one.
01:10:05.660 It's like a Christmas tree.
01:10:07.660 We switched that one light bulb and everything went on.
01:10:09.660 It's, it's fine.
01:10:10.660 Fix the one light bulb and all of a sudden the missiles hit their targets.
01:10:13.660 Right, right.
01:10:15.660 Best guess is this is all quietly and informally the U.S. Navy conducting training exercises.
01:10:24.660 And they're going out and they're just coincidentally, they're going to just be doing a lot of these things, you know, right up next to the, you know, the natural gas ships.
01:10:34.660 That's it.
01:10:36.660 U.S. Navy will open up dedicated channels with LNG shipping companies and they will proactively report any, any security concerns or unknown radar or sub contacts.
01:10:49.660 And it won't be surprising if Shell and Chevron and Exxon all quietly decide, you know what, we're going to sail right next to that, that carrier group.
01:11:00.660 We just, I mean, it's great.
01:11:02.660 We, you know, we have things to see.
01:11:04.660 Ocean's a big thing and you don't see much.
01:11:06.660 So we're going to do that.
01:11:08.660 Just watch the movie Greyhound.
01:11:10.660 It's on Apple.
01:11:12.660 It's on Apple.
01:11:13.660 Tom Hanks was in it about the Allied convoy running through German U-boats.
01:11:18.660 See, that's how they get.
01:11:19.660 It's on Apple.
01:11:20.660 You can watch it.
01:11:21.660 It's really good.
01:11:22.660 But that's how it was happening in World War Two.
01:11:24.660 Submarines were coming out and sinking all of the things that we were sending to Europe, which brings me to another coincidence.
01:11:33.660 Oh, man, you're just not going to believe this.
01:11:39.660 But one of Russia's nuclear powered submarines has reportedly vanished from its Arctic harbor.
01:11:48.660 And NATO says it's concerned it could be gearing up to test its advanced weapons systems.
01:11:55.660 Now, it's in the Atlantic.
01:11:58.660 And it's a submarine.
01:12:00.660 Pay no attention to the last story because it's really great.
01:12:05.660 Advanced systems.
01:12:07.660 In fact, the system is called the you're going to love this.
01:12:16.660 It is the Poseidon.
01:12:19.660 Yeah.
01:12:20.660 Yeah.
01:12:21.660 It's called the Poseidon, the missile system.
01:12:23.660 But it is it is known as the Armageddon weapon.
01:12:28.660 I love that.
01:12:31.660 So what is it?
01:12:33.660 Well, the submarine is is top shelf brand new.
01:12:38.660 And it has the Poseidon torpedo, which is a nuclear torpedo.
01:12:43.660 And this torpedo is kind of strong.
01:12:47.660 I mean, just to put it into perspective, put it into perspective for you.
01:12:52.660 Fat Man, the Fat Man nuclear bomb dropped on Nagasaki by the United States.
01:12:57.660 That was 21 kilotons.
01:12:59.660 Remember that?
01:13:00.660 Vaporize.
01:13:01.660 OK, 21 kilotons.
01:13:06.660 So a megaton is 1,000 kilotons.
01:13:18.660 So what we dropped with Fat Man was 21 kilotons.
01:13:26.660 So it would be 21,000 megatons, right?
01:13:33.660 I think it's a lot.
01:13:37.660 OK, it's a lot.
01:13:39.660 21 kilotons.
01:13:41.660 A megaton is 1,000 kilotons.
01:13:45.660 The estimates on the weapon of the apocalypse have ranged from two to 100 megatons.
01:13:56.660 One hundred megatons.
01:14:00.660 Now.
01:14:02.660 That's a lot.
01:14:04.660 That's a lot.
01:14:05.660 But here's the thing.
01:14:07.660 They're not missiles like you know them to be missiles that, you know, just go up into the sky and then vaporize the city.
01:14:13.660 These do something special.
01:14:15.660 They're Poseidon.
01:14:16.660 And so they are like drones, except not in the sky.
01:14:21.660 They're underwater.
01:14:22.660 And these drones can go down, be launched from the sub and then go down and sit on the bottom of the ocean, let's say, by a shoreline.
01:14:34.660 And one of them would do it, but you they could launch many of these from one sub and they all sit up and down the shoreline and then they wait for the signal.
01:14:45.660 And when the sub gives them the signal, they blow them up and it's capable of creating a sixteen hundred foot tidal wave.
01:14:58.660 Now.
01:15:00.660 The bad news is wipe a lot of people out.
01:15:03.660 The good news is in some ways, I guess, man made climate change, you know, affecting the oceans when man put something down that'll, you know, it's like seven thousand degrees instantly.
01:15:17.660 I'm going to wipe out the shorelines.
01:15:19.660 I'm against that kind of climate change.
01:15:20.660 I am, too.
01:15:21.660 Yeah, I am, too.
01:15:22.660 I am, too.
01:15:23.660 So they lost that submarine.
01:15:25.660 It's out there.
01:15:26.660 Some.
01:15:27.660 Well, they watch it.
01:15:28.660 They were watching.
01:15:29.660 They were watching.
01:15:30.660 Then it disappeared.
01:15:31.660 I love that coming from NATO when they say and this is a quote, it disappeared.
01:15:35.660 I don't think it disappeared.
01:15:37.660 I'd like you to try for another because I don't think it disappeared.
01:15:42.660 I think that we weren't watching it.
01:15:44.660 We were all turned around with that.
01:15:46.660 There was a cake.
01:15:47.660 There was a birthday that day.
01:15:49.660 Everyone was singing.
01:15:50.660 Happy birthday.
01:15:51.660 Just disappeared.
01:15:52.660 Candles blew out.
01:15:53.660 We turned around.
01:15:54.660 It was gone.
01:15:55.660 And that new employee, Vladimir was, you know, we he he had a happy birthday, but we did lose the sub.
01:16:00.660 So I'd like to think that maybe this submarine is out just, you know, just trolling the waters looking for the natural gas that we're shipping.
01:16:11.660 But that's not what it does best.
01:16:15.660 Not what it does best.
01:16:17.660 So hopefully their systems will work as well as our catapult on the USS Gerald Ford.
01:16:27.660 You know, it's funny.
01:16:28.660 I feel like people are acting crazy all the time.
01:16:31.660 This is just a general, you know, general sense of the world right now is that people are acting crazy.
01:16:37.660 Part of that might be the craziness of the world, right?
01:16:41.660 Like people are really unsure as to what the future holds.
01:16:45.660 Yeah.
01:16:46.660 Unsure how to stop it.
01:16:47.660 Unsure how to react.
01:16:49.660 There's nothing unsolid right now.
01:16:52.660 Right.
01:16:53.660 Whoa.
01:16:54.660 It's almost like everything that you thought was solid is liquid.
01:16:57.660 It's true.
01:16:58.660 You don't know.
01:17:00.660 You don't know any norms anymore.
01:17:02.660 People are afraid to have conversation because they don't know.
01:17:06.660 I got to say something that somebody all of a sudden is offended and then my life is over.
01:17:11.660 It's really not a good thing.
01:17:13.660 But the good news is we've gone through this before.
01:17:16.660 The world has gone through things like this before.
01:17:19.660 It doesn't usually end well.
01:17:21.660 But in the end, good things happen.
01:17:25.660 In the end, after it's all over, good things happen.
01:17:28.660 You just got to get to the other side.
01:17:30.660 So now how do you do that?
01:17:32.660 Oh, I've got the number one thing you have to do coming up in about 15 minutes.
01:17:41.660 Stand by.
01:17:42.660 These days, 71% of employees in the marketplace say the cost of living is higher than what they actually are making in take-home pay.
01:17:52.660 71%.
01:17:54.660 Okay, even if you're not part of the 71%, you're still swimming around in the same economy.
01:18:01.660 Things are going to get worse before they get better.
01:18:05.660 Maybe a lot worse, but they will get better.
01:18:07.660 But you want to make sure that you don't lose everything while things are getting worse.

01:18:54.660 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:18:57.660 A couple things in the headlines.
01:19:12.660 Loretta Lynn has died.
01:19:14.660 She was 90 years old.
01:19:16.660 Cubans.
01:19:17.660 Listen to this one, America.
01:19:18.660 Cubans are protesting over power loss.
01:19:21.660 So they're out in the streets demanding freedom because they're tired of losing power.
01:19:28.660 And why isn't it back on after the hurricane?
01:19:33.660 They're protesting for freedom.
01:19:36.660 Coming up in a minute, I've shared a lot of stuff.
01:19:40.660 If you've missed any, any of this podcast today, it is an important road sign sort of program.
01:19:49.660 Mile marker, if you will, to show you where we really are as a nation.
01:19:54.660 Go and find this podcast either at Blaze TV.
01:19:58.660 You can you can listen to it and download it anytime you want.
01:20:01.660 Or you can you can find it today's podcast wherever you get your podcast.
01:20:06.660 But you don't have to be a hero to fix things.
01:20:09.660 You don't have to be a hero.
01:20:11.660 You know, a lot of people think, oh, it's overwhelming.
01:20:15.660 I don't know what to do.
01:20:17.660 I'm telling you the smallest things that you can do.
01:20:22.660 Could save your life and save your country.
01:20:28.660 How's your relationship with God?
01:20:30.660 Are you striving to be more honest and more clean as a person?
01:20:37.660 Get rid of all of the crappy things in your life, all the things that you do and you're like, I shouldn't be doing this.
01:20:43.660 Get rid of all of them.
01:20:45.660 And then just start making the statements that, you know, have always been true.
01:20:51.660 You don't have to be a hero.
01:20:53.660 You don't have to change.
01:20:54.660 In fact, to save the country, you must not change.
01:20:59.660 You must reestablish the things that you've always known are true, that God exists.
01:21:06.660 God is good.
01:21:08.660 My family is sacred.
01:21:10.660 My spouse and I, we are the ultimate authority, not the government when it comes to our kids.
01:21:17.660 You don't have to be for social justice.
01:21:19.660 You be for what you've always been.
01:21:21.660 If you break the law, you pay the penalty.
01:21:24.660 Justice is blind and my side, their side, anybody's side.
01:21:29.660 If you break the law, no one is above it.
01:21:35.660 You have to stand and just quietly speak and with conviction, stand for the things that you were raised knowing are true.
01:21:47.660 The world can go to hell, but you don't have to go to hell with it.
01:21:51.660 You just have to remember who you are, who you were, and who you were born to be.
01:22:00.660 All right.
01:22:01.660 A couple of answers.
01:22:02.660 One on the economy and one for life.
01:22:06.660 In fact, yesterday I said it is the most important thing to your survival.
01:22:12.660 I found a guy who happens to be on the show today that is going to talk about that.
01:22:16.660 I want to talk to you about sweat block for a second.
01:22:22.660 This is a phenomenal product.
01:22:23.660 It is something that I use every single day and I'm amazed by it.
01:22:29.660 I'm a guy that lives in Texas and it gets sweaty down here and I sweat a lot and it's not pretty.
01:22:38.660 It's not pretty.
01:22:39.660 And I've had problems with deodorants and everything working for me that work for a little while and then not work.
01:22:46.660 This is a deodorant stick, a sweat block that is really, really top of the line.
01:22:52.660 Even better is their sweat block wipes.
01:22:56.660 You wipe them under each arm and for six days you're covered.
01:23:01.660 I mean, it's amazing.
01:23:03.660 Truly amazing.
01:23:04.660 Get the deodorant stick or the wipes.
01:23:06.660 You get a 20% off if you go to sweatblock.com.

01:23:15.660 You are a good guy that you can do.
01:23:27.660 Be a twist.
01:23:30.660 Be a twist.
01:23:32.660 Be a twist.
01:23:40.660 Be a twist.
01:23:43.660 You gotta stand together, it's gonna survive
01:23:47.520 Stand up straight and hold the light
01:23:53.160 It's a new day and time to rise
01:23:58.720 What you are about to hear is the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.
01:24:07.300 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
01:24:09.800 Hello America, today in the first two hours of this broadcast
01:24:17.480 I've told you some things that are gravely concerning.
01:24:21.680 I gave you the signpost and the mile markers of where we are.
01:24:26.680 And America, you need to wake up now.
01:24:32.000 These things that could never happen in America are happening.
01:24:36.000 This is reality.
01:24:37.740 But I also told you at the beginning of the show
01:24:41.460 That there was the most important answer I could give you.
01:24:48.700 And if we all did this,
01:24:53.460 You will protect your family, yourself, and your country.
01:25:00.460 I'm gonna give that with a special guest in 60 seconds.
01:25:05.360 Once in a while, somebody comes along and puts a new face on an old thing
01:25:11.180 And you see it in a new light.
01:25:13.000 Up until now, you've probably, you know, gone along with whatever a mobile company offered.
01:25:18.580 You know, they give you a good deal, that's great.
01:25:21.300 And it's probably not really that great of a deal all the time.
01:25:23.900 Usually a hassle to switch mobile companies.
01:25:25.780 Now, big mobile companies, I don't know if you are aware of this,
01:25:30.140 But Verizon, for instance, gives a lot of money to Planned Parenthood.
01:25:33.480 I don't want a single dime of my money going towards abortions and defending abortions.
01:25:38.580 Not a dime.
01:25:40.000 That's why I have Patriot Mobile.
01:25:42.600 Patriot Mobile not only doesn't send their things to, like, abortions,
01:25:46.540 But they also don't send any of their profits to anything other than constitutional principles.
01:25:53.820 Things that, organizations that are defending freedom of speech, the right to life.
01:25:59.720 They're big on that.
01:26:00.940 They're big on our schools and trying to stop all of this transgender stuff in our schools.
01:26:06.680 Stand with people who are standing with you.
01:26:09.740 Get great, a great discount on your phone service.
01:26:13.400 You're gonna save a lot of money.
01:26:14.460 It's great phone service.

01:26:31.020 Max Lucado is with us now.
01:26:33.480 Max, how are you?
01:26:34.520 It's great to see you, Glenn.
01:26:35.900 It's good to see you.
01:26:36.840 Thank you.
01:26:38.680 Max says he's a guy who writes books for people who don't read books.
01:26:44.460 And those people read a lot of his books.
01:26:49.460 96 million copies of his books are in print.
01:26:53.440 56 languages worldwide.
01:26:55.780 He had just started a new podcast with a global pandemic.
01:27:01.100 He started a video check-in, a daily video check-in.
01:27:04.760 That check-in is more than 42 million times people have checked in with it.
01:27:10.820 And he now has his Encouraging Word podcast, which is one of the top podcasts in religion and self-help.
01:27:17.120 And he's here because he has a new book called Help is Here.
01:27:22.380 Max and I were just talking off the air.
01:27:25.020 And I want you to know, as a listener, I think what Max is going to outline is vitally important.
01:27:36.680 I don't believe in coincidence.
01:27:39.060 I have told you for a very long time that there's going to come a time when you're going to be you're going to need the spirit so close and you listen to the spirit so closely that when it says stop, turn around, you will stop, turn around and go the other way.
01:27:56.120 I've said that for 15 years yesterday, I told you that time is here yesterday.
01:28:02.440 I think four times on the show, which is an unusual number for me, unless I really want to make sure people hear it yesterday.
01:28:13.160 I said, you will not survive.
01:28:17.520 You will not survive what is coming without the constant companion of the Holy Spirit.
01:28:24.040 That's unusual for a public broadcaster to say, but I know it to be true.
01:28:32.620 Something I didn't know yesterday, because we booked this maybe a month or two ago, that Max was coming and I knew he was coming with a book.
01:28:41.440 And as I'm doing my show prep, I realize what the book is about.
01:28:45.640 Help is here.
01:28:47.860 Finding fresh strength and purpose in the power of the Holy Spirit.
01:28:52.260 Welcome, Max.
01:28:54.480 I think you're supposed to be here today.
01:28:56.740 I'm just so excited, Glenn.
01:28:59.180 Number one, I'm always excited to see you.
01:29:01.960 I admire you, hold you in highest esteem and deeply, deeply appreciate you.
01:29:06.460 Thank you.
01:29:06.920 I think you're such a crucial voice in our society.
01:29:11.340 And thank you for not giving up and for not throwing in the towel.
01:29:15.380 Nope.
01:29:15.860 Nope.
01:29:16.260 That ain't going to happen.
01:29:17.140 It's not going to happen.
01:29:17.560 Yeah.
01:29:17.920 So thank you.
01:29:18.820 Yeah.
01:29:18.980 Thank you.
01:29:19.920 And I'm just happy to be here to see you and to discuss the power and the presence of the Holy Spirit.
01:29:25.540 So it's weird because, as you said, you didn't say God.
01:29:29.900 You didn't say Jesus.
01:29:30.740 You said the Holy Spirit.
01:29:31.760 Yeah.
01:29:31.780 Define what the Holy Spirit is.
01:29:35.800 Yeah.
01:29:36.080 Well, the Holy Spirit is the living presence of God on our planet today.
01:29:41.460 The Holy Spirit executes the will of God, just as Jesus did when Jesus was on the earth.
01:29:49.300 And just as God the Father does, primarily prior to Christ, and then Christ executed that will, and now the Holy Spirit is executing that will.
01:30:00.780 It's not quite that tidy.
01:30:02.980 You know, there's always overlap that our little minds cannot conceive of.
01:30:07.580 But it also, it verifies truth.
01:30:11.860 Yes.
01:30:12.940 Yes.
01:30:13.600 And the Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth.
01:30:16.000 That was the promise of Christ.
01:30:17.380 Christ, the Holy Spirit is here to strengthen us, to convict us, to challenge us, to comfort us, to heal us.
01:30:26.540 And I think where you and I align so closely is that as we look back, especially over the last 200 or 300 years of world history and then the 300 years of our nation's history,
01:30:40.120 there have been seasons in which we desperately needed societal renewal.
01:30:45.860 And those seasons came, Glenn, as a result of an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, not as a result of a new policy, a new president,
01:30:56.940 or a different change of leadership.
01:30:59.320 But there was a sovereign...
01:31:00.460 Or even a church.
01:31:01.300 Even a church, absolutely.
01:31:03.220 Or not pastors.
01:31:04.180 Yeah.
01:31:04.360 But there was a supernatural, we'd look at the First Great Awakening, the Second Great Awakening, even the Jesus movement that we recall from the late 60s or mid-60s into the early 70s.
01:31:15.760 There are these occasions in which God in his sovereignty says, I'm going to rescue my people.
01:31:21.500 And it's always right in the midst of or toward the end of a time of desperation.
01:31:27.760 And I think that's what you're saying.
01:31:29.920 We're desperate in need of a help.
01:31:32.280 So when I say, because it's definitely a prompting, you don't survive without it.
01:31:41.300 And I've described it this way for 15 years, maybe 20 years.
01:31:46.560 Describe to somebody who's not all familiar with this, what does that mean?
01:31:52.760 When you say you don't survive without him, you are spot on.
01:31:59.160 And just quickly, statistically, we see this, right?
01:32:03.580 Anxiety is off the charts.
01:32:05.340 The loneliest generation ever recorded is the millennial generation.
01:32:10.840 About 24% say they have zero friends.
01:32:14.660 During the season of life, you should have an abundance of friends and building families for the future.
01:32:20.420 One out of four are saying, I don't even have a friend.
01:32:23.380 The most alarming statistic is that suicides are up 33% since 1999, the highest they have been since World War II.
01:32:33.660 And so I think you're spot on, Glenn.
01:32:36.600 We're in the midst of a devastation, but it has come kind of gradually.
01:32:41.900 We still go out to dinner.
01:32:43.640 We still get up and get our kids off to school.
01:32:46.300 It's not like a bomb has gone off.
01:32:48.260 But really, it has.
01:32:49.900 It has.
01:32:50.420 A bomb has dropped upon us, and people are either taking their lives or they're checking out emotionally all around us, and we're not aware of it.
01:33:01.840 And so it's an insidious attack that we're feeling.
01:33:05.240 It's stealth.
01:33:06.620 It's quiet.
01:33:08.400 It would almost be easier if we had an invader crossing our shores.
01:33:14.080 Oh, it would be much easier.
01:33:14.820 Yeah, because then we'd wake up.
01:33:15.640 Look at the difference between 9-11.
01:33:17.160 Yeah.
01:33:17.980 And today.
01:33:18.980 Yeah.
01:33:19.100 But now we're battling lethargy.
01:33:21.460 We're battling depression.
01:33:22.480 We're battling infidelity.
01:33:24.360 And it's really taking its toll on us.
01:33:27.020 So, but to answer your question, this is the time that the Holy Spirit loves to flourish.
01:33:33.120 And the Holy Spirit comes as that invisible presence of God wherever he is invited to bring about healing and wholeness and fresh starts.
01:33:44.760 And this is really what we need.
01:33:47.100 And this was the promise of Christ on the night before his crucifixion.
01:33:51.100 He said, I must leave so that the Holy Spirit can come.
01:33:55.100 In other words, what you have had in me in the form of a physical body in the presence of a Messiah, I'm going to leave so that everybody from now on all over the planet can receive that same presence and power.
01:34:10.780 You have written during the pandemic that, and I want to quote this, let this observation be included in the history books.
01:34:20.080 We did not know how to pray.
01:34:22.160 Yeah.
01:34:22.620 What does that mean?
01:34:23.080 Well, we didn't.
01:34:24.660 You mentioned that during the pandemic, I took on a job of a daily podcast.
01:34:30.080 And at the end of each podcast, invited people to post their prayer needs.
01:34:34.720 And we would read over, we being my team, would read over those prayer needs.
01:34:39.360 They came from Connecticut to Cambodia, from all over the world.
01:34:43.340 By far and away, the most common statement was, I'm so discouraged, I don't know how to pray, or I'm so weary, I can't find the words, or all I can do is sigh.
01:34:59.300 I think that's important because in the conversation about the Holy Spirit, one of his assignments is he takes our prayers and presents them before the tribunal of heaven.
01:35:12.180 He takes our groans, our utterings.
01:35:15.440 The apostle Paul said, we do not know that for which we should pray.
01:35:19.560 And we really don't.
01:35:21.280 I mean, do we pray for healing or for heaven?
01:35:23.680 Do we pray for deliverance, or do we pray for even death if you're a prisoner?
01:35:32.460 We don't know exactly how to weather these storms.
01:35:35.540 The power of the Holy Spirit is that he takes when Glenn or Max can't even utter the right prayer, the Holy Spirit says, I take over.
01:35:45.480 And I take that prayer, and I take it, and I present it before the presence of God in heaven, which I find so encouraging.
01:35:53.040 Because that reminds me that the real power of prayer doesn't depend upon the way I pray, or even I who pray, but upon the one who hears the prayer.
01:36:01.880 And that's what will bring strength and help to people during tough times.
01:36:07.320 All right, so let me – I have two questions on prayer.
01:36:10.700 One is outgoing, and one is ingoing, and they both involve the Holy Spirit.
01:36:15.260 Let me get to that here in one minute.
01:36:18.080 First, let me tell you about Goldline.
01:36:19.760 This year, the Russell 3000 Index tracks the 3,000 largest U.S.-traded stocks.
01:36:26.360 It has lost $13 trillion in value.
01:36:31.040 That's trillion with a T.
01:36:33.960 You know, we used in a news story today, quadrillion with a Q.
01:36:42.060 That is the first time I've ever done a news story that quoted a number that was $1 quadrillion.
01:36:52.260 That's the number that our 24 biggest banks now have in derivatives.
01:36:59.880 Do you remember that word in 2008?
01:37:02.520 It was under $100 trillion.
01:37:06.900 I think it was like $53 trillion in 2008.
01:37:09.800 It's $1 quadrillion now.
01:37:13.840 Could you please, please do your homework about diversifying what you have in the stock market?
01:37:19.340 But Glenn, the stock market's up today.
01:37:21.320 Uh-huh.
01:37:22.140 It is.
01:37:23.120 It is.
01:37:24.580 Now, it might be a good time to diversify.
01:37:27.140 Take some of that and put that into land or gold and silver.
01:37:32.080 Let me tell you about Goldline.
01:37:33.600 When you buy a box of 20 graded historic $5 Indian gold coins, you'll get a five-pack of the Maple Flex Bar at no extra cost.
01:37:41.800 Five times 19 pieces in each Maple Flex Bar equals 29.5 free legal tender silver pieces with each qualified order.
01:37:52.400 So call Goldline today.
01:37:54.420 Find out how to acquire these unique, popular, and extremely important products.
01:37:58.360 Call 866-GOLDLINE, 866-GOLDLINE, or goldline.com.
01:38:03.380 10 seconds, station ID.
01:38:16.420 So, Max, I pray differently than I think a lot of people pray.
01:38:22.960 I just talk to them, and I can be doing anything, but I'm just talking to them.
01:38:27.620 And, you know, it's a very informal kind of prayer, but I see them as my buddy, also my sovereign as well.
01:38:40.240 So different times, different things.
01:38:42.000 But when it comes to the Spirit, sometimes the way I know when the Spirit is communicating what I have to do, it's clear to me when it is something I really don't want to do.
01:39:00.700 You know, hey, no, I don't think that's right.
01:39:04.480 No, I got it.
01:39:05.120 I got it.
01:39:05.620 That little voice of, ah, that's probably not right, is the prompt, I think, is the promptings of the Spirit.
01:39:13.100 Yes.
01:39:13.660 When I'm lazy or I just want it to go my way.
01:39:18.140 You know what I mean?
01:39:18.980 So, how can the average person that doesn't have that feeling yet, how can they tell the difference between their voice and the Spirit's voice?
01:39:38.280 Because that's hard sometimes.
01:39:40.200 It is.
01:39:40.720 It is.
01:39:41.180 And I know you're the one asking questions, but I'm so fascinated by your fascination with the Holy Spirit.
01:39:51.600 I don't know.
01:39:52.720 I just didn't expect us to be having this candid of a conversation.
01:39:57.760 And so I'd love to know your history.
01:40:00.800 I can give you a two-minute answer to your question.
01:40:03.520 Sure.
01:40:03.820 But at some point, I'd love to know.
01:40:05.340 I bet that everybody would love to know.
01:40:07.060 I'll give you two minutes.
01:40:07.900 Okay.
01:40:08.260 Give me the first two.
01:40:09.300 Okay.
01:40:09.940 So here's the key.
01:40:11.620 Voice and verse are the two words that work for me.
01:40:15.460 The Holy Spirit speaks through the verse, speaks through Scripture.
01:40:19.760 As a preacher used to tell me as a boy growing up, when you open the Bible, God opens his mouth.
01:40:26.100 Yeah.
01:40:26.360 And I think there's truth in that.
01:40:27.780 Yeah.
01:40:28.180 For that reason, I do think it's important for every person to spend time with an open Bible and an open heart every day.
01:40:36.520 I know sometimes it's hard to understand the Bible, but I do believe that the Holy Spirit will help us.
01:40:43.400 What's amazing is when it's happening, you know it because you'll understand it in a different way.
01:40:51.120 You'll read something you've read maybe a thousand times and you'll go, oh, wait a minute.
01:40:56.300 Or that Scripture will be deposited in your mind or in your heart.
01:41:02.300 And as you're going through the day, the Holy Spirit will bring that Scripture to mind and say, remember what you read this morning?
01:41:09.320 I'm with you always, even to the end of the age.
01:41:12.440 Oh, okay.
01:41:13.280 You were saying that to me.
01:41:15.440 And so the verse.
01:41:16.880 And then also the voice.
01:41:19.080 I really believe that since you have the Holy Spirit dwelling inside you, then you are a holy person on earth.
01:41:28.760 And the voice you hear, and I know that phrase, the voices that we hear when we play with it.
01:41:35.280 Everybody knows it.
01:41:36.200 But we've got these voices that say, wait a second, be careful, or watch what you're saying, or press forward, or green light.
01:41:44.600 You get these, the Holy Spirit requisitions our thought process and begins to guide us.
01:41:55.340 Now, the Holy Spirit will never, through an inner voice, say something that will contradict with the verse.
01:42:01.220 So the verse always outranks the voice.
01:42:04.160 But there are those times in which the voice and the verse work together.
01:42:08.620 And that voice you hear inside you, or that verse you've read today, they come together.
01:42:14.180 And you say, okay, there's God guiding me.
01:42:17.380 There's God guiding me.
01:42:19.280 People are, I think, often unaware of the promise of Scripture, that God will guide us.
01:42:25.320 You don't have to go through this life without a GPS.
01:42:28.340 Yes.
01:42:29.140 You'll screw, I did.
01:42:30.980 You'll screw your life up six ways to Sunday until you just go, all right.
01:42:36.780 Yeah.
01:42:37.160 All right.
01:42:37.560 I spent my whole life going, I got it.
01:42:40.360 I got it.
01:42:41.480 Until you realize, I ain't got it.
01:42:42.920 You ain't got it.
01:42:43.660 I ain't got it.
01:42:44.400 Never stronger than that moment.
01:42:46.100 Yeah.
01:42:46.360 Can you give us a little context as to your history?
01:42:52.240 I was desperate for forgiveness, and I got baptized, and it's true.
01:43:04.520 I mean, my whole life changed on that day.
01:43:07.500 Wow.
01:43:07.760 My whole life changed on that day.
01:43:09.640 And I got married to a wonderful woman, and she called me one morning, and she said, I was just in a car accident.
01:43:19.580 Come get me.
01:43:20.660 And she hung up the phone.
01:43:21.660 This is before we had cell phones.
01:43:23.380 We couldn't afford a cell phone, so we didn't have cell phones.
01:43:26.600 And I said, I'll be right there.
01:43:28.940 Click.
01:43:29.460 Hung up the phone.
01:43:31.040 Where?
01:43:32.560 Where?
01:43:33.120 Where are you?
01:43:34.400 And I'm praying about it.
01:43:37.120 I got to get there.
01:43:37.920 I got to get there.
01:43:38.840 And immediately, I knew exactly where she was, but I was new with the spirit, and I knew better.
01:43:49.220 And so I kept driving that way, and I'm like, no, it's too far.
01:43:52.320 It can't be.
01:43:52.860 And I'd turn around, and I'd go back, and I'd go another way.
01:43:55.260 She must be on this street.
01:43:56.120 She must be on this street.
01:43:57.200 And the whole time, keep going, keep going.
01:44:01.060 I got onto the highway.
01:44:02.280 I went through a toll, and I drove about, I don't know, 100 feet, and I went, this is
01:44:08.620 too far.
01:44:09.500 She wouldn't have been this far.
01:44:10.940 And I turn around.
01:44:12.240 As it turns out, she was about 200 feet ahead.
01:44:17.060 And after that experience, I really realized there is no such thing as a coincidence, A.
01:44:24.900 So stop saying it's a coincidence.
01:44:27.460 And B, if you listen and don't reject it, that voice will become strong.
01:44:34.480 It wants to help you.
01:44:36.180 Amen.
01:44:36.540 It wants to help you.
01:44:37.740 That's true.
01:44:38.120 And it will speak to your life and help you on things that are beyond your understanding.
01:44:44.860 Also, the little things, too, but the things beyond your understanding.
01:44:48.840 Back with Max Lucado.
01:44:50.380 Help is here is his new book.
01:44:52.520 Next.
01:44:53.800 Okay.
01:44:54.360 So how many apps do you have on your phone right now?
01:44:57.080 Of that number, how many of them aren't just massive wastes of time?

01:46:24.020 I've asked Max Lucado to stay on with us for a few more minutes.
01:46:27.700 He has a book out.
01:46:29.420 It's brand new.
01:46:30.220 It came out a couple of weeks ago called Help is Here, Finding Fresh Strength and Purpose in the Power of the Holy Spirit.
01:46:38.780 You know, when you start talking about the Holy Spirit on commercial radio, program directors generally are like, oh, God, would you stop talking?
01:46:47.000 But I don't think there is anything more important.
01:46:50.480 If you could just fix one thing, one thing that would change the world, it would be align yourself with the Holy Spirit and begin it today and start listening.
01:47:04.960 Because if you don't have that constant companionship, I don't think you're going to make it.
01:47:09.500 There's going to be too many close calls and too many things that you'll get off path.
01:47:15.040 You've got to have that constant companionship.
01:47:18.580 Max, welcome back.
01:47:19.400 Yeah, thank you.
01:47:20.360 Thank you.
01:47:21.100 So we were just talking off the air and I described, you know, where I think most Americans are, at least those who listen.
01:47:28.020 And ask you to kind of take, you know, take the mic here for a second and speak directly to those who are worried about their country, worried about their children, worried about what is coming next.
01:47:43.040 And how to deal with anger and how to deal with anger as well.
01:47:48.140 Yeah, yeah.
01:47:48.860 And despair.
01:47:50.540 And despair.
01:47:50.940 And despair.
01:47:51.240 Yeah, yeah.
01:47:52.100 Let me describe a situation and see if it sounds familiar.
01:47:56.260 Okay.
01:47:56.560 The Christian faith is in decline.
01:48:00.900 Spiritual indifference is everywhere.
01:48:05.320 Even though there are parts of the country where population is up 300%, church attendance is down precipitously over the last, over the prior 10 years.
01:48:19.960 And on the rare occasion that spirituality is discussed, it's quickly dismissed.
01:48:26.020 It's not in vogue.
01:48:28.040 The idea that there is a right and wrong is out of fashion.
01:48:32.880 And the idea that there is even an ultimate judgment brings professors to mock the very possibility of it.
01:48:45.860 The whole idea sounds ancient and barbaric.
01:48:50.180 That's not good news.
01:48:52.540 But that's not recent news.
01:48:54.020 Because what I just described, what I just described was the way that Presbyterian pastors were describing the United States in the year 1802.
01:49:09.780 1802.
01:49:11.620 Francis Asbury, after whom Asbury Seminary in Kentucky was named, he was a Methodist bishop.
01:49:17.800 He wrote this in 1794.
01:49:19.600 He said, in the American frontier, not one in a hundred came here to get religion.
01:49:26.440 Everybody came to get good land.
01:49:29.300 And then there's a visiting Presbyterian missionary who, in the same year, Andrew Fulton wrote,
01:49:36.440 all the newly formed towns in this Western colony, and there is no representation of religious people.
01:49:44.140 In other words, the nation was struggling under a spiritual drought.
01:49:47.880 Just like we are today.
01:49:50.940 But then, the reason I included that in the book is because the raindrops started to fall in the power and the presence of the Holy Spirit.
01:50:00.440 Something broke out that historians have called the greatest religious revival in the history of our country.
01:50:05.940 It was called the Cane Ridge Revival.
01:50:08.000 There was a group of pastors back in the hills of Kentucky who committed themselves to pray prayers of desperation because the country was in such dire straits.
01:50:20.440 And so, they began to pray together.
01:50:22.940 And then they decided to begin having what they called Eucharist services in these small churches up in the hills.
01:50:30.140 One of those churches was called Cane Ridge.
01:50:34.220 And Cane Ridge was going to host the weekly Eucharist service.
01:50:39.320 And that brought people from other churches.
01:50:41.500 And they built a tent expecting that there would be 500 people.
01:50:46.020 20,000 people came.
01:50:47.760 They poured out of the hills in their wagons and on their horses.
01:50:50.680 And they stayed and they stayed and they stayed, not just for hours but for days and not just days but for weeks.
01:50:58.600 And sermons were preached.
01:51:00.540 Communion was celebrated.
01:51:02.340 No small amount of prayer and groaning and praying.
01:51:07.200 And the consequence of that, Glenn, was the second great awakening.
01:51:11.140 And that second great awakening blessed our country for a solid generation and led directly to the abolition of slavery, to the defense of women's rights.
01:51:27.740 A variety of societal reforms began.
01:51:31.580 So, I tell that story, number one, to encourage us.
01:51:34.600 At any point, God and his sovereignty can release the raindrops of the Holy Spirit upon us.
01:51:40.680 And then also to challenge us.
01:51:43.080 Let's keep praying.
01:51:44.360 Let's invite the Holy Spirit.
01:51:46.340 God can reverse this trend in a heartbeat.
01:51:49.580 Maybe all he's waiting on are some people like you and me to say, come, Holy Spirit.
01:51:54.960 And I think those prayers come when we see the world in such a desperate situation.
01:52:00.340 I will tell you that it is so nice to live here in Texas.
01:52:04.820 I went to my son's football game.
01:52:07.200 And I just was talking to people.
01:52:12.260 And people generally come up and say, you know, hey, so, really?
01:52:17.660 I mean, how bad do you think it is?
01:52:18.880 I'm like, you listen to the show.
01:52:20.420 You know how bad I think it is.
01:52:22.580 And they'll start talking.
01:52:24.300 And they'll say, well, what do you think?
01:52:25.420 What do you think the plan is?
01:52:26.260 And I've just started saying in the last couple of months, the only way we survive is with God.
01:52:33.220 The only way we must humble ourself and turn back to God.
01:52:38.000 Amen.
01:52:38.100 And this Friday night, every single person I talked to said excitedly, right?
01:52:47.720 Right?
01:52:48.680 That is the only answer, right?
01:52:51.800 People at least hear.
01:52:53.500 You think God's doing something?
01:52:54.580 I do.
01:52:55.460 I do.
01:52:56.360 I've never seen that before.
01:52:58.200 All right.
01:52:58.280 I just got goosebumps.
01:52:59.260 Yeah.
01:52:59.960 I mean, it's, I think, you know, and it doesn't take all of us, you know.
01:53:05.840 No.
01:53:06.240 The tipping point is 18, was it 17 or 18, 19 percent?
01:53:10.680 Which is it, Stu?
01:53:11.440 Do you remember the tipping point?
01:53:13.000 It's under 20 percent.
01:53:14.740 Yeah.
01:53:15.800 And if you are dedicated to that, it changes the world.
01:53:20.160 Changes the world.
01:53:21.360 Well, you think about stories in the Bible like the story of Elijah.
01:53:24.580 Elijah, and the entire country of Israel had sold out to Baal, the worship of Baal, a false
01:53:34.040 god that required child sacrifice and temple prostitution.
01:53:38.000 We're only 100 years after the construction of Solomon's temple, and the whole nation had
01:53:42.960 sold out.
01:53:44.300 That's amazing.
01:53:45.060 But God's shoulder tapped Elijah.
01:53:47.720 Elijah challenged the prophets to meet him on Mount Carmel.
01:53:50.840 It was 850 to 1.
01:53:52.720 Those are not good odds.
01:53:54.580 No, no.
01:53:55.860 But when Elijah prayed, God sent fire, because it doesn't matter to God what the odds are.
01:54:02.020 He's just looking for that quorum of people like you, Glenn, prayerfully like me, like
01:54:07.300 all of our listeners, who will say, okay, we're going to believe, we're going to have
01:54:10.980 faith, we're not going to get bitter, but we're going to trust and wait for God to work.
01:54:16.200 I've got just a couple of minutes left with you, and Max, I so appreciate your time.
01:54:22.120 The name of his book is Help is Here by Max Lucado.
01:54:27.280 Max, help me out with anger.
01:54:36.980 There is righteous anger with what's being done to our families and even our jobs and
01:54:45.280 our bank accounts and our country.
01:54:46.940 No doubt.
01:54:47.500 But we cannot be a part of that.
01:54:51.280 How do you get past that?
01:54:56.260 Okay.
01:54:56.840 Two or three thoughts come to mind.
01:54:58.660 Number one, yes, there is a righteous anger.
01:55:00.700 Here, Jesus cleaned the temple.
01:55:03.520 I mean, he went in and really made a point, made a statement.
01:55:09.800 If God calls us to react in a way that hurts other people, I think we've overstepped the
01:55:18.140 bounds.
01:55:18.860 What we have to do is clearly state our position, clearly state that we believe in the sanctity
01:55:25.840 of life, believe that God is sovereign and determines the genders of children before they're
01:55:32.280 even born.
01:55:33.220 We have every right to believe this and state it clearly.
01:55:37.840 What we don't want to do is become cynical and bitter, to become those people that pick
01:55:44.300 a fight every time we turn.
01:55:45.980 Let's be clear thinking.
01:55:47.480 Let's be equipped in our knowledge.
01:55:49.720 Let's be prayerful.
01:55:51.240 Let's be more on our knees than up well in our fists and trust that the God who sovereignly
01:55:59.200 declares the world is his, he will take care of it.
01:56:02.960 God has said, vengeance is mine.
01:56:05.360 I will repay.
01:56:06.640 So it's his job to settle all scores.
01:56:10.020 It's not my job.
01:56:11.320 My job is to be faithful to him and to try to clearly articulate my beliefs and understand
01:56:16.980 my worldview.
01:56:18.260 And I think that's my primary challenge.
01:56:21.240 And how do you, what do you say to people who say, well, no, we've got to do something.
01:56:26.420 That's not enough.
01:56:27.680 I mean, we got to do something.
01:56:32.400 Well, what is that something?
01:56:35.480 You know, what is that something?
01:56:38.460 I do think we underestimate the power of prayer.
01:56:42.640 I really do.
01:56:43.800 And I do think that our real enemy is not flesh and blood, but against the principalities
01:56:49.420 and the powers of this world's present darkness.
01:56:52.960 And so the real enemy is not somebody who's on the other side of the aisle, but the real
01:56:59.540 enemy is the devil himself.
01:57:01.920 There is a devil.
01:57:02.980 And this devil seeks to do nothing but destroy and create chaos.
01:57:09.900 And so prayer and praise are our weapons, our spiritual weapons.
01:57:15.100 We pray.
01:57:15.880 We beg God because we've been bought by the blood of Christ.
01:57:18.820 We're in the kingdom.
01:57:19.980 You're a part of the church of the Lord's family.
01:57:23.160 Okay, you and I have access to the king of kings, so let's storm the gates with prayer
01:57:29.220 and then let's praise.
01:57:30.980 Let's praise.
01:57:31.700 The apostle Paul said that rejoice in the Lord always.
01:57:36.140 Again, I say rejoice.
01:57:38.020 And when we praise him, that ticks the devil off because the devil wants our praise and we're
01:57:43.580 giving it to God and that releases even more power to come upon the earth.
01:57:48.340 And it makes us the happy warriors that Martin Luther King was.
01:57:51.880 There you go.
01:57:52.360 There you go.
01:57:53.240 All he did was stand and tell the truth.
01:57:55.180 Yeah, yeah.
01:57:55.960 You know, you just state the truth.
01:57:57.300 You know what it is.
01:57:58.560 You know, I think our biggest challenge right now is to remember who we are, where we came
01:58:08.620 from, what we know to be true, and just stand there.
01:58:14.100 Just do not move a muscle from that place.
01:58:19.420 Dead fast.
01:58:20.320 You know?
01:58:20.660 Well, what are they going to do?
01:58:23.420 What are you going to do?
01:58:24.160 Yeah.
01:58:24.500 Yeah.
01:58:24.800 And you don't have to be, I don't want to become them.
01:58:28.220 I don't want to become an agent of chaos and everything else.
01:58:33.480 Yeah.
01:58:33.620 Yeah.
01:58:33.680 So, Max, so good.

02:00:24.100 The Dow is up almost 800 points today, and Bitcoin is back up over 20,000.
02:00:49.100 So, it's fixed.
02:00:50.600 Everything is going to be fine.
02:00:51.920 Everything is fine.
02:00:53.040 What were we talking about earlier today?
02:00:55.500 By the way, there is a great article on theblaze.com.
02:01:00.780 It is Carol Roth.
02:01:02.820 How to survive economic pain that is ahead in the Biden economy.
02:01:09.200 You can find it now.
02:01:10.980 In fact, we'll tweet it out if we can tweet it out at Glenn Beck and post it on all of our different socials.
02:01:18.600 But she gives a long-term, medium-term, and short-term to-do lists, things that you need to do to protect yourself.
02:01:29.440 And she said, you know, in terms of short-term preparation, it's almost certain that the broad economic environment gets worse from here.
02:01:39.820 So, take on an austerity perspective and cut out any unnecessary expenses while you beef up your emergency funds if you can.
02:01:49.300 She said, if you're fortunate enough to have any additional funds, max out your employer 401k match.
02:01:57.720 Look at some inflation protection from Series I savings bonds if you can keep your money tied up for five years.
02:02:05.020 Or find some return, even if it doesn't keep pace with inflation.
02:02:09.960 Just any short-term return would be good.
02:02:13.620 Keep your powder dry.
02:02:16.740 That's the basics that you have to do.
02:02:19.360 That's short-term.
02:02:20.380 Then she goes into medium-term and long-term.
02:02:23.000 And if you would follow those things, I think you will be a lot safer than most people are right now.
02:02:30.740 What are you saying about playing dice?
02:02:31.920 Strangely, she didn't mention it in this article.
02:02:35.980 In this article?
02:02:36.440 Yeah.
02:02:36.760 Because I got a new dice guy.
02:02:38.040 Really, you do?
02:02:38.680 Yeah.
02:02:39.060 Yeah.
02:02:39.460 Yeah.
02:02:39.760 They seem to be weighted, oddly.
02:02:41.880 Uh-huh.
02:02:42.200 When they roll, they seem to come to certain numbers that count.
02:02:44.880 Or sometimes they stop rolling and then they wait a second and they go over one.
02:02:49.180 And then they come over one.
02:02:50.220 Yeah, which is weird.
02:02:50.940 That's just the wind.
02:02:51.940 I'm sure it's just the wind.
02:02:53.120 That's what he says.
02:02:53.340 Yeah.
02:02:53.540 Okay, that's good.
02:02:54.200 That confirms it.
02:02:55.060 So, it is a good investment.
02:02:56.020 Oh, sure it is.
02:02:57.060 Okay, good.
02:02:57.500 That and craps.
02:02:58.980 Oh, yeah.
02:02:59.740 Craps, hey.
02:03:00.260 At least craps, you can get the best odds in the casino.
02:03:03.480 Yeah.
02:03:03.860 Which at this point might be a good return.
02:03:06.140 Might be better.
02:03:06.740 Compared to reality.
02:03:08.120 You know, it's weird.
02:03:09.260 With craps, it's just all about timing.
02:03:11.240 You can clean up.
02:03:12.600 Yeah.
02:03:12.820 And then one roll of the dice and it's all gone.
02:03:16.600 It's all gone.
02:03:17.280 That's what makes it fun.
02:03:18.640 No.
02:03:19.640 No.
02:03:20.260 That's why people pay so much money to go play.
02:03:22.240 Yeah.
02:03:22.840 That's what makes it, I don't know, like everyday life.
02:03:26.960 The Glenn Beck Program.
