The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ 3⧸18⧸24

00:00:00.000 Well, today's podcast, Stu and I are both just just kind of soaking in a bloodbath.

00:00:07.140 I was thinking about taking a blood shower, but bloodbath seemed more, you know, more

00:00:12.740 appropriate for the podcast.

00:00:14.280 Let our hair down just a little bit.

00:00:15.940 We talk about the disinformation campaign that the Biden administration is fighting

00:00:22.040 while strangely, you know, also engaging in a disinformation campaign.

00:00:27.800 Also, the red heifers of Israel.

00:00:31.840 You want to understand what really is happening in the Middle East.

00:00:35.960 Perhaps we should listen to the spokesperson of Hamas about Israel's red heifers. 0.63

00:00:43.120 That's also on the podcast today and more with illegal immigrants, our country's spending 0.98

00:00:50.880 and so much more you don't want to miss on today's podcast right after this.

00:01:19.140 I need my inflammation reduced.

00:01:20.740 This actually helps prevent pain and make pain go away in the long term because it is

00:01:26.340 a daily supplement that helps your body fight inflammation, which is the main source of pain

00:01:55.900 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:02:00.700 So I don't know about you, Stu, but I've been soaking in a bloodbath all weekend.

00:02:07.180 Um, it's, I, I can't tell you how many chickens I had to sacrifice to get the blood, uh, enough

00:02:13.320 for a bath for me.

00:02:14.780 I mean, it's like a, it's like a Taft bathtub, you know, uh, that is a very nerdy joke, but

00:02:21.220 I like it.

00:02:22.860 Thank you.

00:02:23.600 Thank you.

00:02:24.280 Any William Howard Taft jokes you can break out in minute one of a national radio program.

00:02:29.120 That's always the right way to go.

00:02:30.600 I like it.

00:02:31.440 Well, you know, Hall of Fame.

00:02:33.380 Hall of Fame.

00:02:33.780 Did you hear how he expertly just tucked that Taft joke in?

00:02:38.280 Not a lot of opportunities for those.

00:02:40.600 So anyway, um, uh, this weekend, apparently, according to the mainstream media and a lot

00:02:48.740 of them, they said that Donald Trump was calling for a bloodbath if he didn't win.

00:02:55.780 Listen, cut three.

00:02:59.160 Cut, cut three.

00:03:00.440 But as Politico.com reports tonight on the, quote, bloodbath at the RNC, headlines calling

00:03:08.520 it a, quote, bloodbath.

00:03:09.960 Yeah, bloodbath.

00:03:10.900 Not only is it going to be a bloodbath, but after they leave New Hampshire, it's a bloodbath

00:03:14.660 on her home turf.

00:03:16.080 That's really tough.

00:03:17.260 Trump has left a lot of corpses in his wake.

00:03:19.420 I mean, we can count the bodies.

00:03:20.940 As part of the, quote, MAGA drive to take over Maricopa County.

00:03:24.440 And the headline refers to it as an impending bloodbath.

00:03:26.440 Bloodbath.

00:03:27.160 Columnist Charles Blow has a new piece for the New York Times entitled A Biden Bloodbath.

00:03:32.020 2018 midterms, you can bet that they 100% are fearing a slaughter.

00:03:36.420 In fact, the word bloodbath and massacre come up frequently.

00:03:40.100 The Republican Party will be destroyed.

00:03:41.920 It's going to be a bloodbath.

00:03:43.060 There's going to be a bloodbath one way or the other.

00:03:45.060 Bloodbath for Bernie Sanders.

00:03:46.700 It's been a bloodbath.

00:03:47.700 And they're shaping up to be a bloodbath.

00:03:49.900 Head off a bloodbath in next year's crucial midterm.

00:03:52.540 Off-year elections are often a bloodbath.

00:03:55.280 This week's bloodbath for Democrats.

00:03:57.280 A bloodbath at the ballot box.

00:03:58.820 There could be a Republican bloodbath.

00:04:00.580 They'll talk about a bloodbath.

00:04:01.840 There's a bloodbath.

00:04:02.840 I have to talk about you.

00:04:04.280 It's going to be a bloodbath all day long.

00:04:06.540 It's in for a bloodbath.

00:04:07.660 Hasn't been a bloodbath on the way down.

00:04:09.700 Donald Trump bloodbath. 0.90

00:04:11.740 Be a bloodbath. 0.97

00:04:13.000 Predicted to be a bloodbath.

00:04:14.760 May not be the bloodbath.

00:04:16.120 It would be a bloodbath.

00:04:16.860 More of a bloodbath.

00:04:17.860 It's going to be a bloodbath in November.

00:04:19.800 Possible Biden bloodbath this November.

00:04:23.500 A bloodbath on Wall Street.

00:04:25.220 There's going to be a bloodbath.

00:04:26.520 In Alabama, into a bloodbath.

00:04:28.320 Obviously there was a bloodbath.

00:04:29.520 It was a bloodbath.

00:04:30.540 We're down 800 points.

00:04:31.720 This bloodbath at Department of Homeland Security.

00:04:33.960 And it's a bloodbath today.

00:04:35.120 There was going to be this bloodbath.

00:04:36.880 Election bloodbath.

00:04:38.320 It could be a bloodbath for them.

00:04:39.860 Bloodbath possibly.

00:04:41.180 Bloodbath it went through with the Attorney General.

00:04:42.960 Stop.

00:04:43.660 I can't.

00:04:44.640 I got to get out of this tub.

00:04:46.000 I got to get out of this tub.

00:04:47.780 There's just too much bloodbath.

00:04:49.880 Now, this is the media.

00:04:51.860 This is the media saying, using the word bloodbath.

00:04:56.300 Now, when you say it's going to be a bloodbath, Stu, what does that usually mean?

00:05:00.480 Usually, it means something, a blowout, a defeat of some sort in a notable way with a large margin.

00:05:11.480 What if you use the words, what if you use the words, what if you use the word, like Van Jones did, a slaughter and a bloodbath?

00:05:19.860 It would also mean...

00:05:20.740 It's going to be a slaughter and a bloodbath.

00:05:23.800 That's an interesting question.

00:05:24.620 That does change things, but not much.

00:05:27.940 It basically means, again, a blowout, a defeat by a large margin.

00:05:31.740 Everyone knows what it means, and everyone knew what it meant until this weekend, apparently.

00:05:39.460 I don't know.

00:05:40.660 I don't know if that's entirely true.

00:05:42.960 The media, they heard Donald Trump.

00:05:46.840 And here's ABC, cut 10.

00:05:57.120 Or cut 2, whichever one you can...

00:05:59.560 And former President Trump's campaign, now on the defensive, after his fiery rhetoric at a rally in Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday night.

00:06:07.720 Trump warning while discussing the economy that there would be a, quote, bloodbath if he is not re-elected in November.

00:06:13.860 This, after the former president kicked off the event by paying tribute to those who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

00:06:21.320 President Biden's campaign swiftly denouncing those comments as threats of political violence.

00:06:27.260 Okay, stop for a second.

00:06:29.080 Stop for a second.

00:06:30.500 Stu, can you take this...

00:06:32.120 Can we take this...

00:06:33.220 Play this again.

00:06:34.100 And I want to take it step by step, because this sounds like something entirely different

00:06:39.320 than what everyone in the media has said themselves over and over and over and over again, right, about a bloodbath.

00:06:46.960 Let's take this apart, because this sounds very dangerous and very different.

00:06:51.560 Go ahead, play it from the beginning.

00:06:52.720 And former President Trump's campaign, now on the defensive, after his fiery rhetoric at a rally in Dayton, Ohio, on Saturday night.

00:07:00.540 Trump warning while discussing the economy that there would be a, quote, bloodbath if he is not re-elected in November.

00:07:06.700 This...

00:07:07.420 Stop.

00:07:09.100 Holy cow. 0.89

00:07:11.260 Holy cow, Stu.

00:07:13.280 He's on the defensive now, because he said something that maybe he shouldn't have said.

00:07:20.240 So he's on defensive, and his fiery rhetoric is saying here, from the stage, Stu, that if he's not elected, there'll be a bloodbath.

00:07:37.260 Wow.

00:07:37.900 See, because it's...

00:07:39.200 If you're elected in a bloodbath, that means that you would, of course, what? 0.99

00:07:46.380 You'd slaughter him. 0.99

00:07:47.980 You'd... 0.97

00:07:48.320 Not literally, as we've learned from the media, but a bloodbath would be something that you'd just...

00:07:56.160 You'd either win or lose at a great, great number.

00:08:02.100 But if he's elected, or if he's not elected, and then there's a bloodbath, that's...

00:08:09.240 Right?

00:08:10.900 That's different, Stu.

00:08:12.360 It's really not.

00:08:14.020 He's talking about, of course, the economic competition, specifically as it's related to China and automobiles.

00:08:20.680 No, you're not.

00:08:21.300 Shh, shh, shh, shh.

00:08:22.240 No, you're not.

00:08:23.020 No, you don't understand.

00:08:24.460 I don't.

00:08:24.880 He's elected.

00:08:26.600 If he's not elected, there will be a bloodbath.

00:08:29.780 That's what she said.

00:08:30.760 Now, let's listen on.

00:08:32.120 Okay.

00:08:32.360 After the former president kicked off the event by paying tribute to those who attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6th.

00:08:38.300 January 6th, President Biden's campaign...

00:08:40.020 Holy, stop for a second.

00:08:41.280 Holy cow. 0.89

00:08:43.180 Now I think you see the connection.

00:08:45.300 Oh. 0.94

00:08:46.000 He said if he's not elected, there'll be a bloodbath in the same speech where he opened up praising those crazy people from January 6th. 0.97

00:09:00.300 Wow. 0.86

00:09:00.660 Now I've been turned around.

00:09:02.340 Yeah.

00:09:02.720 This is dangerous rhetoric.

00:09:04.180 He was talking about the dangerous people of January 6th, and then somehow or another, he went right into bloodbath.

00:09:12.840 Right.

00:09:13.340 If he's not elected.

00:09:14.500 Well, you said right into.

00:09:17.120 Well, he went right into bloodbath.

00:09:19.200 Is that...

00:09:20.320 Well, there were three ellipses.

00:09:22.600 There were three ellipses, and, you know, that's no big deal.

00:09:25.320 So, anyway, go ahead.

00:09:26.720 Listen to the rest of the report here.

00:09:28.460 ...swiftly denouncing those comments as threats of political violence.

00:09:32.300 Stop.

00:09:34.160 There you go.

00:09:34.700 There you go.

00:09:35.120 Well, there wasn't five ellipses.

00:09:35.740 So, the president immediately sprung and...

00:09:38.300 No, no, it wasn't, Stu.

00:09:40.460 It wasn't five ellipses.

00:09:41.620 It was three.

00:09:43.320 And the president knows because the president immediately denounced those words as violent rhetoric.

00:09:54.120 Okay?

00:09:54.560 So, what more do you need from this story?

00:09:59.400 I mean, I don't know.

00:10:01.420 Maybe the context?

00:10:04.340 Would it be too much to ask to receive the context of the comments?

00:10:09.080 Like, what...

00:10:10.060 Like, maybe the lines preceding?

00:10:12.900 It's not going to change anything, but here's cut 18.

00:10:16.240 China now is building a couple of massive plants where they're going to build the cars in Mexico

00:10:26.940 and think, they think, that they're going to sell those cars into the United States with

00:10:31.960 no tax at the border.

00:10:33.320 Let me tell you something to China.

00:10:35.200 If you're listening, President Xi, and you and I are friends, but he understands the way

00:10:39.420 a deal, those big monster car manufacturing plants that you're building in Mexico right now,

00:10:46.960 and you think you're going to get that, you're going to not hire Americans,

00:10:50.520 and you're going to sell the cars to us, no.

00:10:52.640 We're going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line,

00:10:57.820 and you're not going to be able to sell those cars.

00:11:00.180 If I get elected...

00:11:01.420 Now, if I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole...

00:11:05.640 That's going to be the least of it.

00:11:07.220 It's going to be a bloodbath for the country.

00:11:08.900 That'll be the least of it.

00:11:10.340 But they're not going to sell those cars.

00:11:12.300 They're building massive factories.

00:11:15.240 So wait a minute.

00:11:16.280 I'm trying to figure this out.

00:11:17.880 So China's building cars, and then he says he's going to put a tariff on if he's elected.

00:11:23.800 If he's not elected, then somehow or another there'll be political violence everywhere,

00:11:29.620 and his people will do a January 6th on the whole country.

00:11:34.260 And then he says, and they're not going to sell those cars.

00:11:39.460 You know, Joe Biden is right when he came out this weekend and said he's not fit to be president,

00:11:44.160 because he's not making any sense there, Stu.

00:11:47.320 You know, what does the political violence have to do with China and the sales of cars?

00:11:51.980 You know, it's interesting.

00:11:53.220 That wouldn't make any sense at all if he were to just convert back and forth between those things

00:11:58.680 without introducing the topic whatsoever.

00:12:00.960 You'd think maybe, and this is the way human speech works,

00:12:05.440 is when you introduce a topic and then comment after that topic without introducing a new topic,

00:12:14.360 people generally think that the statements you've made relate to the previous topic that has been discussed.

00:12:21.720 But when you delete...

00:12:23.160 But that's not how human nice mustaches works.

00:12:27.720 See, that's what you just did right there.

00:12:29.320 I don't think it's normal.

00:12:30.640 I think you just said nice mustaches.

00:12:33.060 So now I...

00:12:33.900 Are you talking about...

00:12:35.300 That was just...

00:12:35.960 See, that's strange.

00:12:36.720 Normally, the way people do is they string multiple sentences together on the same topic,

00:12:42.980 unless they specifically introduce a new topic.

00:12:48.100 And if you kind of go by this old school analysis, Glenn,

00:12:51.780 what you think is maybe he's talking about an economic bloodbath

00:12:56.140 if China is allowed to import cars with the penalties not associated that he would...

00:13:03.880 That seems entirely Campbell Soup's inconceivable to me.

00:13:08.440 See, again, you did...

00:13:09.040 Campbell Soup, that's not normal.

00:13:10.940 What you're doing is not normal.

00:13:12.360 Well, all I know is that's the way they teach it in journalism school.

00:13:21.360 Now, in other news, when we come back,

00:13:24.740 I'm going to tell you all about how the administration

00:13:27.900 is putting together a cute little effort through USAID

00:13:32.840 to make sure that you aren't given false or misleading information

00:13:40.900 because they say during this election,

00:13:45.060 some people will try to give you mis or mal or disinformation,

00:13:50.840 and they need to be there to protect you from that.

00:13:54.440 Otherwise, it could be a bloodbath.

00:13:59.220 And I'm soaking in one right now.

00:14:02.980 Well, that and...

00:14:05.820 Well, cream of chicken soup.

00:14:09.080 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program,

00:14:10.940 and we really want to thank you for listening.

00:14:13.720 So, Stu, you know, we were watching with bated breath.

00:14:17.980 Gee, who's going to win?

00:14:19.520 Putin or that other guy?

00:14:21.860 And we thought it would be close with that other guy,

00:14:26.320 but apparently not.

00:14:27.160 Apparently not.

00:14:27.860 We were shocked.

00:14:28.580 90% voted for Putin.

00:14:31.540 Yeah.

00:14:32.380 Now, we're not the only ones that said,

00:14:35.420 what about the other guy?

00:14:37.100 Because Stu found something rather interesting

00:14:40.160 while following the Putin election.

00:14:43.620 Yeah.

00:14:43.900 People don't want to talk about this,

00:14:45.400 but the reason Vladimir Putin won with 90% of the vote

00:14:51.420 is because, and no one in the media will talk about this,

00:14:55.580 but Vladimir Putin actually had his main opponent

00:15:00.760 thrown off the ballot.

00:15:04.760 There was no one to go against Vladimir Putin.

00:15:08.200 Yeah.

00:15:08.500 No, I'm serious.

00:15:09.420 What?

00:15:09.860 He came up with some technical justification

00:15:13.480 to get him tossed off the ballot

00:15:16.620 so he couldn't even appear,

00:15:17.940 and people couldn't vote for him.

00:15:19.720 Go ahead.

00:15:21.040 Wow.

00:15:21.560 Yeah.

00:15:22.380 Wow.

00:15:23.300 That's happened to what's-his-name.

00:15:25.140 Yeah, what's-his-name was not on the ballot.

00:15:27.300 You didn't have, like, Putin.

00:15:28.240 Not on the ballot.

00:15:28.880 What's-his-name.

00:15:29.660 No.

00:15:29.880 The main guy who was the, he was a,

00:15:33.540 he was an anti-Ukraine war politician,

00:15:36.660 heavily promoted by the opposition,

00:15:38.420 and he got, he went through,

00:15:40.860 got all the signatures that required,

00:15:42.620 and the government came in and said,

00:15:44.320 oh, actually, technicality, sorry,

00:15:47.120 you can't get on the ballot.

00:15:48.600 So, of course, he won 90%.

00:15:50.060 Wow.

00:15:50.440 They kicked his main opponent off the ballot.

00:15:53.020 But what kind of democracy do you have

00:15:57.780 if you're the only name on the ballot?

00:16:01.560 That's not democracy.

00:16:03.240 There's no choice there.

00:16:05.900 And I just find it to be abhorrent that this-

00:16:11.120 I tell you, it would never happen here in America,

00:16:13.260 I'll tell you that right now.

00:16:14.500 Yeah, it makes you feel proud to be in America.

00:16:15.460 Well, that's the difference between us and them.

00:16:16.880 Yep.

00:16:17.220 Yeah.

00:16:17.860 I mean, you know, there's autocratic rulers

00:16:21.280 that do those kinds of things.

00:16:23.000 They sure do.

00:16:23.440 I can't believe it.

00:16:24.140 Let me make sure I understand it.

00:16:25.540 So, the guy who is in office did everything he could

00:16:30.180 to make sure that the guy running against him

00:16:33.460 couldn't really be voted for

00:16:35.720 because he wasn't even on the ballot.

00:16:37.560 Yeah, think about that for a second.

00:16:39.380 Think about that.

00:16:40.740 Think about-

00:16:41.460 Wow.

00:16:42.320 Imagine how Americans would react

00:16:46.540 if one of the-

00:16:49.180 No, no.

00:16:53.060 It would be like,

00:16:54.300 hey, there's this plague that's going around.

00:16:58.360 Everybody's got to lock themselves

00:16:59.860 into their house for three years.

00:17:01.380 Imagine what Americans would do with that. 0.89

00:17:04.560 They would say, no way.

00:17:06.580 No way.

00:17:07.660 No way.

00:17:08.180 Taking somebody off the ballot.

00:17:10.080 Think about that.

00:17:11.580 Think about what our, let's say, founders

00:17:14.920 would think about a person

00:17:17.280 who was president of the United States

00:17:19.420 outwardly arguing to remove

00:17:22.740 his opposition from any opportunity

00:17:27.820 of opposing him.

00:17:29.260 I mean, it's incredible.

00:17:32.100 Yeah, I know.

00:17:32.620 I could tell you what they would say, too.

00:17:34.380 What?

00:17:34.580 Why are you asking us?

00:17:35.840 We're dusty and outdated.

00:17:37.180 So they wouldn't know.

00:17:40.800 They would never see something like that happen.

00:17:43.540 No.

00:17:43.600 You know?

00:17:44.100 They really wouldn't, actually.

00:17:46.460 But yeah, no, it's a fascinating thing.

00:17:48.860 And that's why, Glenn, Russia is really bad 1.00

00:17:52.420 and we don't want a dictator.

00:17:54.300 That's why dictators do things like that. 1.00

00:17:58.660 Dictators say, I should remain in power

00:18:01.220 for as long as I want to remain in power

00:18:03.480 and my opponent shouldn't have a chance to win.

00:18:07.180 That's what a dictator does. 1.00

00:18:08.500 But what if you have a really good reason,

00:18:12.460 like that's a bad guy?

00:18:15.120 Well, I mean, that was kind of one of the things

00:18:17.640 Putin thinks, you know, in Russia,

00:18:19.420 obviously the war is pretty popular there.

00:18:21.180 They think opposition to that war is bad.

00:18:24.880 And, you know, they came up with a technical reason.

00:18:28.140 It wasn't just that they thought he was bad.

00:18:30.760 They said some of the signatures were suspicious.

00:18:34.080 They had this technical reason that they kind of came up with.

00:18:37.600 When you have suspicious signatures.

00:18:38.380 Yeah.

00:18:39.180 Yeah.

00:18:39.700 And so he didn't even get a chance to win.

00:18:41.640 So, I mean, it's really, it wasn't even an election at all, Glenn.

00:18:44.860 When you have an election where you only have a few little sprinkled

00:18:47.720 third party candidates on the ballot,

00:18:49.680 that's not an election, Glenn. 0.99

00:18:51.720 That's totally ridiculous. 0.67

00:18:53.440 I have to tell you, Stu, when, you know, when Vladimir Putin, 0.73

00:18:58.980 because I've seen this suspicious, you know, signature thing before,

00:19:04.540 what he does is when people are gathering signatures

00:19:08.380 for something that's against him, they find a way, say,

00:19:13.140 hey, there's no, we can't verify the signature.

00:19:15.960 But when they have to verify signatures for like voting,

00:19:21.120 they don't care.

00:19:21.960 There's just like, he voted for Putin.

00:19:24.420 Oh, my gosh.

00:19:24.820 But that's not, that's, that's signed Uncle Sam.

00:19:28.520 It doesn't matter.

00:19:29.660 You have a problem with people named Sam?

00:19:32.560 And that's, that's how dictators work, Stu.

00:19:36.100 This is.

00:19:36.820 Good thing we don't have that here.

00:19:38.060 Yeah.

00:19:38.500 I mean, it's just, it's just another, again,

00:19:41.060 you could play the national anthem right now

00:19:42.960 and just show the pride in America that we would never do something

00:19:46.380 anywhere near this.

00:19:48.460 Yeah.

00:19:48.680 And then luckily Russia, then they're very bad for doing it. 1.00

00:19:52.620 Well, they're just wrong.

00:19:54.540 But we have radicals here.

00:19:56.220 Okay.

00:19:56.800 Radical, dangerous radicals.

00:19:59.040 You know, it was Woodrow Wilson that first came up with that dangerous radical thing

00:20:03.620 that, you know, we need to, we need to have a war on the dangerous radicals here.

00:20:10.020 And that's why he came up with the Espionage Act and put that, you know,

00:20:14.720 and that Espionage Act is from Woodrow Wilson, still largely in force.

00:20:20.220 Um, and it says that it is, um, if you convey false information in order to interfere with

00:20:27.800 the American military or promote the success of America's enemies.

00:20:34.100 Uh-oh.

00:20:36.840 Second, to cause or attempt to cause insubordination within the military,

00:20:41.680 or third, to willfully obstruct military recruitment or enlistment.

00:20:47.260 You can be charged under the Espionage Act.

00:20:50.820 And that's not something to fool around with.

00:20:54.700 Woodrow Wilson knew freedoms.

00:20:57.120 And, uh, and he did, he did a lot to restrict them because he knew they were sacred and should

00:21:04.220 therefore be restricted from common use.

00:21:07.100 The more restrictive Sedition Act of 1918, which he came up with after, is even better. 1.00

00:21:15.000 Um, he amended the Espionage Act to criminalize disloyal.

00:21:22.040 Und are you disloyal?

00:21:25.300 Profane, scurrilous, or abusive speech about the United States or its symbols.

00:21:32.760 Also, speech that impeded war production and statements supporting a country which the U.S.

00:21:39.840 is at war with.

00:21:41.660 So, they locked up a lot of people on that one.

00:21:45.880 Now, some of the people thought that, ah, that doesn't sound like freedom of speech and

00:21:51.820 the First Amendment.

00:21:53.640 But, uh, the Supreme Court said, hey, when a nation is at war, many things that might be

00:22:00.920 said in time of peace are such a hindrance to its effort that even their utterance cannot

00:22:06.560 be endured so long as men fight.

00:22:09.940 So, we're just going to have to suspend.

00:22:13.040 Gosh, I hope we don't ever go to war.

00:22:14.680 More than 2,000 people were convicted, uh, under the Espionage and Sedition Act during World

00:22:20.640 War I.

00:22:21.680 About half were convicted.

00:22:23.500 Many of them went to jail.

00:22:24.760 Uh, they included people that just distributed leaflets arguing that the draft, uh, constituted

00:22:33.020 slavery.

00:22:34.060 Uh, those who urged labor strikes, um, they were, of course, thrown into jail.

00:22:39.300 The, uh, those convicted included, uh, included leaders of the Socialist and Communist Party.

00:22:45.860 Uh, Eugene, uh, V. Debs is the, probably the most famous.

00:22:49.380 He ran from prison in, uh, 1920, but remember, you can't do that.

00:22:54.960 If this president is thrown in jail, he can't run.

00:22:58.580 I mean, sure, there's, I mean, Eugene Debs did, but this is, it's different this time.

00:23:03.640 We'll have to keep him off the ballot.

00:23:05.100 A few judges, uh, noted, notably, uh, the U.S. Supreme Court Justice Louis, uh, Brandeis,

00:23:11.500 uh, which is the guy who never lifted a finger to help the people on the St. Louis or Oliver, 0.99

00:23:16.640 uh, Wendell Holmes, he was the guy who said, you know, two generations of idiots is enough 0.96

00:23:22.920 and, uh, and therefore we can sterilize people. 0.98

00:23:25.820 Even those guys said, yeah, this doesn't sound like freedom of speech in the First Amendment.

00:23:32.920 Uh, and so they can't do that.

00:23:35.080 And so they overturned it after the war.

00:23:38.480 And then in 1921, it was, uh, repealed.

00:23:42.580 The Espionage Act remains intact.

00:23:44.660 However, it was used during, um, the Red Scare, but, uh, right after, right after the, uh,

00:23:52.040 tyrant, I'm sorry, I can't say tyrant, the fascist, no, I can't.

00:23:57.380 The educated Princeton man who became president of the United States and is now the, is he still

00:24:04.980 the fifth or was it the 15th?

00:24:06.920 I know he was in the top three when I started talking about Woodrow Wilson.

00:24:11.080 I think he might now be down to number 15 as one of the greatest American presidents.

00:24:15.680 He was, um, he was really, uh, he was the look car of human beings.

00:24:24.920 Uh, and, um, he, uh, uh, he had all of that overturned, uh, finally in 1969.

00:24:32.720 And here's what, here's what the Supreme court said in 1969, uh, speech can be restricted

00:24:43.320 only if it presents a threat of imminent lawless action.

00:24:50.420 You're listening to the best of Glenn Beck.

00:24:52.800 Need a little more?

00:24:53.960 Check out the full show podcast.

00:24:56.300 Well, let's, let's look at the news now.

00:24:58.880 After former president Trump declared his freshly made guacamole, the bomb media outlets in America

00:25:07.120 and across the nation have announced that Trump has threatened to drop a nuclear bomb.

00:25:11.280 If he were to lose the election, it's a clear call to civil war, cried MSNBC anchor Joe Scarborough

00:25:19.040 this morning as video played of Trump eating chips.

00:25:23.380 You heard the words, the bomb from his very own lips. 0.99

00:25:28.300 Is there nothing this madman won't do? 0.87

00:25:31.900 Several media outlets reported that Trump's threat of nuclear war came immediately on the 0.93

00:25:36.900 heels of Trump vowing to demolish democracy when he claimed he was about to demolish some

00:25:44.280 tortilla chips.

00:25:45.360 We're sickened to hear such vile threats from former president Trump said Scarborough watch

00:25:52.000 as Trump openly says he's about to slice and dice tomatoes, slice and dice.

00:25:57.980 He literally saying here that he plans to cut every one of his opponents into tiny pieces 0.98

00:26:04.600 with a knife. 1.00

00:26:06.640 How horrific.

00:26:09.180 Babylon's reporting.

00:26:10.180 According to sources, the comments came after Trump served up his world-famous guacamole during

00:26:16.420 a fajita night at Mar-a-Lago.

00:26:18.440 The guacamole, a family recipe for generations, was made tableside by Trump himself and described

00:26:24.860 as absolute dynamite in addition to many other violent and obviously pro-insurrection phrases.

00:26:32.080 At publishing time, the Babylon Bee Reports MSNBC had reported that Trump had also planned to

00:26:39.040 burn Democrats alive after revealing that Trump described the fajitas as sizzling.

00:26:46.200 And that's all the news fit to print.

00:26:48.600 I am amazed how the media just thinks they can get away with it.

00:26:53.880 And they do.

00:26:55.220 I don't know if I'm more amazed by the media thinking they can get away with it or the fact 1.00

00:26:59.820 that they actually do with so many dumb Americans. 1.00

00:27:02.840 Oh, my gosh. 1.00

00:27:05.880 Did you hear?

00:27:06.440 Bloodbath.

00:27:07.780 Bloodbath.

00:27:08.640 And, you know, we have a problem because he was talking about a bloodbath for all Democrats. 1.00

00:27:14.600 He's obviously going to kill all of the Democrats, drain them of their blood. 0.99

00:27:18.760 And then in the water system, he's going to replace water with blood. 1.00

00:27:22.880 So you could draw a bath.

00:27:24.360 And we're offended on two points. 1.00

00:27:26.320 One, he's going to kill all the Democrats and drain them all their blood. 1.00

00:27:29.880 And then two, that's an awful waste of a lot of blood. 1.00

00:27:33.300 Could we not have baths?

00:27:34.600 Could we take maybe a two-minute shower?

00:27:36.720 Could we have blood showers?

00:27:38.560 It would probably be better for the environment.

00:27:41.440 I mean, it's madness what they're doing.

00:27:46.320 And but I mean, if that's all you got, that's all you got.

00:27:49.260 You could you could if you're the Democrats, you could stand on the fact that you are doing your you created forty two thousand new jobs.

00:28:00.140 I don't know if you know this, but Tyson Foods wants to hire forty two thousand.

00:28:06.260 Well, I can't say Americans.

00:28:08.220 Well, people who are in the United States, some would say illegally, but that wouldn't be the Biden administration.

00:28:14.120 Now, they just laid off twelve hundred employees as they closed a factory in Iowa last week.

00:28:23.900 But Bloomberg has reported for companies like Tyson Foods struggling to fill unpleasant jobs with a U.S. unemployment rate of three point nine.

00:28:33.860 That's not a real unemployment rate.

00:28:35.480 It's not.

00:28:36.320 I'm sorry.

00:28:36.840 It's just not.

00:28:38.420 That's that's people who, you know, are seeking employment.

00:28:42.200 That's not I mean, are you really we have a three point nine unemployment rate.

00:28:46.820 Wow.

00:28:47.460 Did we just did we just lose millions of people that they just suddenly just disappear because every place I go, it's like help wanted.

00:28:56.320 And then you see, you know, decent help on somebody who would actually work wanted, you know, I don't think the three point nine is the actual number.

00:29:07.100 I think that's the actual number of of of Americans who are not like, well, I just get it all from the government. 0.96

00:29:14.280 You know, that's excluding those people.

00:29:17.620 But the good news is, is that the Tyson Chicken Company is.

00:29:23.000 It's has joined the tent partnership for refugees, which is a good public private partnership happening here with an NGO.

00:29:33.100 And I think that's great.

00:29:35.440 Now, me personally, what what what Tyson Foods conglomerate?

00:29:40.000 What what what else do they make, Stu?

00:29:41.580 Do you know?

00:29:43.180 Other.

00:29:43.520 You just look that up.

00:29:44.560 Sure.

00:29:45.820 The Tyson Foods, you know, because it's like it's like four companies own everything and you might be added to that at some point.

00:29:53.660 You know, wait, they also own Glenn Beck.

00:29:56.980 I didn't.

00:29:57.480 What how did that happen?

00:30:02.180 Because I'm thinking that and it's always really hard to do this.

00:30:06.200 It's very hard.

00:30:07.040 You know, I'm going to boycott Coca-Cola.

00:30:09.120 Well, no, you're not really.

00:30:10.380 You're not because they every place you go, it's either Coke or Pepsi.

00:30:14.920 And I really don't like Pepsi and I don't like the places which serve Pepsi.

00:30:19.820 You know, there's just a problem with Pepsi lovers.

00:30:23.160 I'm sorry.

00:30:23.780 I know that cuts out half of we could still be friends, not close friends, but we could still be friends if you're a Pepsi lover.

00:30:30.940 I mean, my son is a Pepsi lover, but I have to remind him he's also adopted.

00:30:35.380 So I understand.

00:30:36.840 I understand those things.

00:30:38.460 You're a great father.

00:30:40.380 Yeah.

00:30:40.800 Thank you.

00:30:41.300 Thank you.

00:30:41.720 I thought so.

00:30:42.440 You're welcome.

00:30:42.800 You just got to learn them, Stu.

00:30:44.140 So what is the what's the Tyson family?

00:30:47.060 So you got you got your, you know, chicken products, beef and pork cuts, chicken nuggets.

00:30:53.720 Some of the brands are no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:30:56.380 Yeah.

00:30:56.540 The brands that they brands that Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, Ballpark, Sarah Lee Frozen Bakery.

00:31:08.280 OK, hang on.

00:31:08.820 Hang on.

00:31:09.040 Oh, no, no.

00:31:09.940 Hang on.

00:31:10.240 Just a second.

00:31:10.740 This is I could get away from Sarah Lee.

00:31:12.820 I should get away from I divorce you.

00:31:15.120 I divorce you. 0.81

00:31:15.840 I divorce you. 0.78

00:31:17.620 Now, I'm if I was Islamic, I would be separated now permanently from Sarah Lee.

00:31:23.820 But it's going to be a problem in the summer with the Ballpark Franks.

00:31:28.840 Yeah, I could do it.

00:31:29.720 I could do it so far.

00:31:30.520 I could do it.

00:31:30.940 I get me.

00:31:31.500 I don't think anyone.

00:31:32.320 The chicken is don't get you talk first.

00:31:36.960 Oh, OK.

00:31:37.480 Sorry.

00:31:37.960 You were getting excited about the chicken.

00:31:39.640 It's hard for me to believe that you'd be able to stay away from any meat based product company for any length of time.

00:31:47.880 It doesn't seem like a thing.

00:31:51.300 Maybe I could just say this.

00:31:53.500 Chicken is the salad of meats.

00:31:56.520 Wow.

00:31:58.880 Do you have a bumper sticker on sale yet that says that?

00:32:02.240 Because I think.

00:32:03.400 No, but I think that I think.

00:32:05.420 I mean, I think everybody knows that chicken is the salad of meats.

00:32:08.940 It's the it's the thing.

00:32:10.600 Well, if you want to be healthy, have a salad.

00:32:13.780 I'm so tired of salads.

00:32:15.420 Put some chicken in it.

00:32:17.400 OK, I don't want chicken.

00:32:18.900 And they've wrecked it by putting it into salads because it's revealed itself as really just a salad topping.

00:32:26.140 Nope.

00:32:26.900 And then they don't think they try to do a crisis PR with it and create chicken salad, which was just creating mixing the chicken with mayonnaise and calling it salad, which is not that's.

00:32:37.520 Yeah, it's not really a salad.

00:32:39.140 No.

00:32:39.680 Chicken is a fraud from start to finish.

00:32:42.360 Start to finish.

00:32:43.380 Wow.

00:32:43.540 First of all, probably it's the chicken is probably a dinosaur.

00:32:49.720 OK, probably is.

00:32:51.020 Probably is just like, oh, no, the humans are coming.

00:32:54.920 I should I should not be a dinosaur anymore.

00:32:57.360 I could be friendly.

00:32:58.480 And that didn't work out well for him. 0.99

00:33:00.700 We're just killing him for another reason. 1.00

00:33:02.880 Well, we should kill him because there are dinosaurs in disguise. 1.00

00:33:06.520 And chicken is the salad of meat anyway. 0.99

00:33:11.020 And you thought bloodbath was going to be the most controversial statement from the right today.

00:33:15.300 No, no, it's the chicken is the salad of meat controversy that is right around the corner.

00:33:21.520 It is.

00:33:22.440 So anyway, what else do they make?

00:33:24.820 What else?

00:33:25.220 What other brands come from Tyson?

00:33:27.700 Some other stuff.

00:33:28.900 Is that the umbrella?

00:33:31.220 Raised and rooted.

00:33:32.180 Never heard of it.

00:33:33.220 Adelis.

00:33:34.360 Right.

00:33:34.520 Sounds dangerous.

00:33:36.300 But basically, I mean, Tyson, Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm and Ballpark are probably the ones I would say most of all.

00:33:43.220 OK, I'm not doing Tyson.

00:33:45.240 I can get away from Tyson.

00:33:46.820 I can get away from Tyson.

00:33:48.940 That's because that's the kind of guy I am.

00:33:51.060 I'm not doing any of the hard ones.

00:33:52.780 But as a as a recovering alcoholic, no Bud Light for me.

00:33:57.660 None.

00:33:58.340 Brave.

00:33:58.900 I can do that one.

00:33:59.860 Thank you for saying it, Stu.

00:34:02.980 Thank you for saying it.

00:34:04.940 Now, I just want to let you know, a Lebanese migrant who was caught sneaking over the border admitted he's a member of Hezbollah.

00:34:13.560 He hoped to make a bomb.

00:34:15.960 His destination was New York.

00:34:18.860 His name is Basil Basil Ebidadi.

00:34:22.200 He's 22 years old.

00:34:23.580 He was caught by Border Patrol near El Paso while in custody while he was, you know, in the U.S.

00:34:33.320 He asked, I'm going to try to make a bomb.

00:34:38.940 No, no, I'm sorry.

00:34:40.520 He didn't just offer that up.

00:34:41.920 He was asked, what are you doing here?

00:34:44.000 And that's what he answered. 1.00

00:34:45.460 He's not a complete idiot. 0.96

00:34:46.700 But Basil Basil Ebidadi later claimed in an interview that he had been trying to flee Lebanon and Hamas because he didn't want to kill people. 0.99

00:34:58.380 Once you're in, you can never get out.

00:35:02.100 So it's either that or he's here to build a bomb.

00:35:06.780 So I'm assuming I don't know.

00:35:08.660 I didn't have the attention span to read the rest of the article.

00:35:11.800 So I don't know.

00:35:13.360 I'm sure that the Biden administration released him, which is really good because now he might go, you know, he might mend his ways because now he could get a job at Tyson.
