00:00:26.240 A lot of information today.
00:00:27.380 Today, I started with, again, what we can do to fix things.
00:00:34.040 What things are going to look like if we don't fix things
00:00:37.960 and how you don't have to worry about that if you're prepared and doing the right things.
00:00:42.340 Also, RFK Jr. came out and announced a big change
00:00:44.860 when it comes to the COVID vaccine in children and good.
00:00:47.840 We need to focus on, you know, actually eradicating these illnesses
00:00:51.460 that children are suffering from.
00:00:53.020 And he also said, no more gender assignment surgery anymore.
00:00:59.860 And it is a, it's probably the biggest step, concrete step,
00:01:04.540 in healthcare I've seen in a long, long time.
00:01:08.080 Also, should Joe Biden's pardons be overturned because of the auto pan?

00:01:13.260 If there's one thing we've learned in the, just in the last few years,

00:02:59.020 Now let's get to work.
00:03:01.440 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:03:12.620 So I don't know if you saw that all of a sudden there's this big interest in cutting the debt
00:03:22.260 and going with the doge cuts.
00:03:24.100 And I saw these headlines come across yesterday afternoon and I was like, whoa, wow, that's good news.
00:03:29.640 What's happening?
00:03:30.720 No, it's not.
00:03:32.000 It's not.
00:03:32.660 It's just more of the same from these weasels in the Republican Party.
00:03:37.900 Elon Musk announced that he is not going to be spending money in the elections.
00:03:46.320 He said, I think I've done my fair share.
00:03:48.960 And, you know, I don't know if it really even makes a difference.
00:03:51.820 So, all of a sudden the Republicans who have been getting money from him are like, whoa, whoa, wait, Elon, we love you.
00:04:02.420 Those doge things you were doing, my gosh, we want more of that.
00:04:06.540 We, are you, were you thinking we weren't going to include that in the bill, in the big, beautiful bill?
00:04:11.260 Because we're including a lot of that, right?
00:04:13.160 Right, guys?
00:04:14.220 Yeah, absolutely.
00:04:15.120 Elon, we love you.
00:04:16.060 It's so slimy, it's sickening.
00:04:18.500 But if that's the way they get to cuts, I'm all for it.
00:04:21.900 The doge cuts are the easiest cuts to make.
00:04:25.460 And we must send a signal to the rest of the world that we are serious.
00:04:34.040 Because there's something coming that most Americans just don't understand.
00:04:40.960 You know, and not because it's hidden.
00:04:43.720 It's right there in plain sight.
00:04:45.540 But it's, you know, like all financial crimes, it's all dressed up in fancy acronyms and things that people half understand.
00:04:53.800 And it all sounds like it's going to be good.
00:04:57.080 And eventually you start hearing the word that is the most important word.
00:05:02.720 Debt.
00:05:03.960 I've been hearing about a debt crisis since I was a kid.
00:05:07.760 There's going to come a time.
00:05:08.880 Well, this is the time.
00:05:10.660 We are here.
00:05:11.920 So we have to talk about this.
00:05:13.560 Yesterday, I read something that came across my desk about, it was from an advisor at Goldman Sachs.
00:05:24.160 And just listen to this.
00:05:26.720 This made my head hurt.
00:05:30.120 Funding conditions remain easy but can tighten meaningfully once the debt limit is raised.
00:05:36.620 Four trillion increase is likely included in this latest bill as bill supply will drain bank reserves by several hundred billion.
00:05:43.620 I mean, I was like, I don't know.
00:05:48.400 Now you've given me homework.
00:05:49.580 I don't want to.
00:05:50.560 I need to understand that, but I don't want to do all the homework on it.
00:05:54.780 So if you're hearing that, I know you're thinking the same thing.
00:05:57.960 So I did some homework on it.
00:05:59.280 And if I may quote Admiral Ackbar, the debt, it's a trap.
00:06:09.020 Okay?
00:06:11.680 Congress is about to raise the debt ceiling.
00:06:14.460 Four trillion dollars.
00:06:16.280 And they're arguing about it.
00:06:17.820 They're bickering back and forth.
00:06:19.220 And you're going to see a press conference or two.
00:06:21.440 But in the end, they always raise it.
00:06:23.760 This time, four trillion dollars.
00:06:26.160 And the media will do what the media always does.
00:06:29.340 They'll say, oh, crisis averted.
00:06:31.620 But they're wrong.
00:06:33.360 They're wrong.
00:06:34.200 Because every time we raise the debt ceiling, it adds to the crisis.
00:06:39.160 Okay?
00:06:40.320 And this is the moment where maybe the final, we're maybe in final approach here.
00:06:48.100 And if it's not this landing, it might be the next landing.
00:06:51.040 But it's going to be one of the landings very, very close to now.
00:06:54.620 Now, here's why raising the debt ceiling actually affects you.
00:07:00.820 I don't know, Whoopi Goldberg.
00:07:02.580 What difference does it make?
00:07:05.000 Well, here's what difference it makes.
00:07:06.600 And this is something that no politician is going to tell you.
00:07:09.900 Or very few of them will tell you.
00:07:12.300 Nobody will really explain it in a way that I think you can then use.
00:07:17.720 So let me try.
00:07:20.820 What happens when they raise the debt ceiling?
00:07:22.840 They raise the debt ceiling and say, okay, the debt ceiling was we can't borrow any more than this.
00:07:29.180 Because we're out of control.
00:07:30.760 So we can't borrow any more than this.
00:07:32.960 And then they borrow all of that.
00:07:34.600 And then they're like, okay, okay, okay.
00:07:36.100 But we can't borrow any more than this.
00:07:38.880 So this is the limit.
00:07:40.140 And then they raise the debt ceiling and they borrow all of that money.
00:07:42.980 And then they're like, okay, okay, okay.
00:07:44.620 But this time we really mean it.
00:07:46.600 We can't borrow more than this.
00:07:49.260 And the reason why they're saying we can't borrow more than this is because it's sending a message to the rest of the world.
00:07:56.280 And who specifically?
00:07:59.580 I don't think people that are, you know, you know, average workers in England are thinking about this.
00:08:05.560 But the central banks are.
00:08:07.700 The sovereign funds are.
00:08:10.840 The major investment funds are thinking about this.
00:08:15.300 That's why they say, okay, this time we mean it.
00:08:19.200 Because all of those people with the big money to buy our debt are saying, you guys aren't serious.
00:08:25.780 So the debt ceiling is raised.
00:08:28.260 What does that mean?
00:08:29.140 The government has to print a bunch of T-bills, treasury bills, which is basically an IOU.
00:08:37.820 Okay.
00:08:38.460 We say, oh, we really need $4 trillion.
00:08:41.380 But we're going to give you this IOU and we're good for it.
00:08:44.300 Okay.
00:08:45.420 We're really super going to pay you back.
00:08:48.140 And the less people believe that, the less that they think, oh, no, they're serious, the higher the interest rate.
00:08:56.720 It's like going to a loan shark.
00:08:58.240 Eventually, you've got such bad credit, you can't go anywhere else.
00:09:01.700 And so you have to just keep raising the interest rates.
00:09:04.540 And before you know it, you're talking to Vito, who's going to break your legs.
00:09:08.460 Well, we're almost there.
00:09:10.120 So they have to refill the cash drawer, right?
00:09:14.720 We have to spend this money.
00:09:16.960 So they raise the debt ceiling.
00:09:18.920 Now, who buys those?
00:09:20.420 Just told you.
00:09:21.300 Banks, pension funds, money market accounts, countries.
00:09:26.560 And how do they pay for them?
00:09:29.760 Well, they don't just have that money lying around.
00:09:32.520 It's cash they have already sitting someplace else.
00:09:39.020 So when they buy government debt, that cash leaves the banking system and moves over to the treasury so the government can have it and spend it.
00:09:50.260 And what's left in the banking system is a big IOU.
00:09:54.160 Hang on.
00:09:58.240 If you have me so far, good.
00:10:01.780 But hang on because you're going to understand how this is going to affect your life personally in just a minute.
00:10:07.540 So this is like a giant vacuum.
00:10:10.200 It's a very powerful vacuum.
00:10:12.700 I think it's a Dyson because it sucks up all of the money, all of the oxygen, all of the, quote, liquidity that nobody understands.
00:10:22.460 Well, liquidity.
00:10:23.100 Well, liquidity.
00:10:24.000 We're having a liquidity problem.
00:10:25.440 Nobody understands that.
00:10:27.200 My gosh, they can't tell you who the president of the United States is.
00:10:30.180 They're going to explain liquidity.
00:10:33.920 Okay.
00:10:35.320 Here's what it means.
00:10:37.760 Cash.
00:10:39.820 Cash at the bank.
00:10:41.280 Why is that important?
00:10:44.240 Why does that matter?
00:10:45.720 Whoopi Goldberg might say.
00:10:48.200 Because you need cash from the bank in the form of a credit card or in the form of an auto loan or a loan for your small business.
00:10:58.700 That's why this matters to you.
00:11:01.080 Less money in the bank means tighter credit.
00:11:05.040 Tighter credit means loans are going to get harder to get.
00:11:07.980 Interest rates go up, which means what?
00:11:12.420 If you have a loan, God forbid you have a variable loan, your interest rate on your house is going to go up, which means you're going to pay more for your house, which means you're not going to get a raise at work because businesses are drying up, because nobody has money, because this is affecting everybody.
00:11:29.540 You can't get a mortgage, you can't get a mortgage, you can't get a credit card, you can't refinance, your small business doesn't get anything.
00:11:37.660 Why?
00:11:40.060 Well, because the government has all of that money.
00:11:43.840 Okay.
00:11:44.000 They just shrunk your financial oxygen tank.
00:11:47.380 They told you, breathe deep, breathe deep, but they're taking the tank and not giving you the oxygen you might need.
00:11:56.280 Okay.
00:11:56.820 So, this also, when they raise the debt ceiling, affects you because it affects inflation.
00:12:04.200 Okay.
00:12:04.440 This is slight, this is total sleight of hand because the money doesn't disappear.
00:12:09.160 It's out of the bank, but it goes to the, all they've done is transferred you were going to spend that money to they are going to spend that money.
00:12:17.500 So, they just shifted it from banks and households to politicians and federal agencies, from the real economy to the administrative state.
00:12:26.740 So, that doesn't reduce inflation, it just changes who spends your money.
00:12:32.320 It's not anti-inflationary, it's anti-you.
00:12:38.240 We are running a system right now that is mathematically unsustainable.
00:12:43.440 And every time we raise the debt ceiling, we are not solving a problem.
00:12:47.560 Crisis averted.
00:12:49.140 We're compounding it.
00:12:51.260 The more we borrow, the more cash we suck out of the real economy.
00:12:56.740 So, here's what this is going to mean, possibly, in the coming months.
00:13:02.160 If they pass this, you're going to see business investment slowing down.
00:13:07.480 Your wage is not going to go up.
00:13:10.300 Unemployment is going to creep up.
00:13:12.240 Families have to tighten their budget.
00:13:14.120 The Fed is trapped.
00:13:16.740 Cut rates, inflation is going to go up.
00:13:20.140 Raise rates, and the system falls apart.
00:13:23.000 Okay.
00:13:23.440 They're out of bullets.
00:13:24.340 They're out of bullets.
00:13:25.320 And, as this is all happening, you're going to be told, this is all normal.
00:13:29.680 Don't worry about it.
00:13:30.420 Everything's fine.
00:13:31.560 Okay.
00:13:32.340 But, it's not fine.
00:13:33.380 How long can a man live if every breath he takes is harder than the last breath to get oxygen?
00:13:39.460 Okay.
00:13:40.300 Eventually, the oxygen runs out, and you're done.
00:13:43.020 No family, no business, no nation can survive if it spends more than it produces forever.
00:13:49.080 However, the clock is ticking, and you're going to be left holding the bill.
00:13:55.360 Higher costs, fewer opportunities, and no one in Washington willing to tell you the truth.
00:14:01.200 You know, we used to measure our wealth now, or then, in what we made, what we built, what we grew.
00:14:07.660 Now, we measure our wealth, I guess, and how much debt we can sell before the system buckles.
00:14:15.820 That's not prosperity.
00:14:17.380 That is a countdown.
00:14:18.380 So, let me give you some solutions for you.
00:14:25.820 I want you, first, before we get into that, I want you to call your senator, call your congressman, and demand the doge cuts.
00:14:35.820 At least send a signal to those who are buying our debt that we have some responsibility.
00:14:45.420 Put the doge cuts in.
00:14:49.440 The White House said they're sending them next week.
00:14:51.800 They just need to happen.
00:14:54.420 Do that.
00:14:55.200 Now, there are other things you need to do for your own personal survival and your own personal economy.
00:15:01.780 So, I want you to know that this is not something, I don't just talk about things on the air unless I really believe them.
00:15:10.260 And I want you to know, I'm making some changes in my life, and I'm risking a great deal in the coming months.
00:15:21.700 And I'll let you know about that as we get closer.
00:15:24.120 But I'm probably taking the biggest gamble of my career and my life in the coming months because I believe in something.
00:15:30.940 But with that said, I want you to know, yesterday, when I saw this from Goldman Sachs, I thought, oh boy, okay, is this the right time to do it?
00:15:43.540 And, well, the answer is I don't ever do anything for money.
00:15:46.120 I do it because I believe in it.
00:15:48.400 And so, what happens will happen.
00:15:50.840 You know, God will work it out.
00:15:51.840 But I am changing many things in my own life because I believe in this.
00:16:00.220 So, we all have different situations.
00:16:03.820 But let me just talk to the people who say, you know, I got a job.
00:16:07.340 I have maybe some savings, but not a lot.
00:16:11.340 What do I do?
00:16:13.180 Okay.
00:16:14.960 Let me give you a goal.
00:16:16.640 Whether you can reach this or not, I don't know, but it's a goal.
00:16:20.080 Have six months of living expenses in cash or a cash equivalent.
00:16:27.800 So, you know you can make it six months and pay your basic bills.
00:16:33.520 Avoid any new long-term commitments that will drain your flexibility.
00:16:38.620 What you have to remain is super nimble right now.
00:16:43.080 You have to have options in front of you right now.
00:16:47.360 Cut your recurring expenses now.
00:16:50.080 Eliminate or lock in subscriptions.
00:16:53.700 Look at your insurance, your utilities.
00:16:56.360 Cash flow is going to be king because something might happen and you're like, I got to have the cash.
00:17:02.400 Okay.
00:17:03.340 If you can do that, great.
00:17:04.720 If you can't, here's some other things.
00:17:08.380 Side hustles.
00:17:10.040 Set up yourself for a side hustle.
00:17:12.500 Any skill.
00:17:13.280 If you have the ability to go back to like a trade school, do it.
00:17:17.400 Any skill.
00:17:18.480 Mechanic.
00:17:19.240 Baking.
00:17:19.880 Child care.
00:17:21.500 Tech.
00:17:22.100 Whatever it is.
00:17:23.100 Practice it right now, even part-time.
00:17:26.120 Because you may need it later if your hours are cut or your job disappears.
00:17:31.780 Be working on a backup right now.
00:17:34.540 Most important thing you can do is build local resilience.
00:17:40.020 This is one of the reasons why I come up to the ranch and I've built my forever home up in Idaho in this small little farming community because I know these people.
00:17:51.300 And they are salt of the earth.
00:17:54.640 I mean, I'm going to tear up just thinking about them.
00:17:57.460 I go to church with these people and I listen to them and they're just salt of the earth people.
00:18:04.920 You have to have your local community, your local church, because in hard times, networks equals net worth.
00:18:14.620 Okay.
00:18:14.820 Forget about net worth.
00:18:16.100 Think of networks.
00:18:18.700 Also, own something tangible.
00:18:20.460 Even a small garden, chickens, tools, something that can help you with independence.
00:18:27.300 And avoid any new debt.
00:18:29.680 If you don't need a new car, don't get one.
00:18:31.920 Non-essentials, vacation, if you can get it without it, or especially vacation homes, get out of it.
00:18:38.660 The most important thing you need to know is stop assuming things will bounce back right away.
00:18:43.600 That's normalcy bias and it kills you.
00:18:45.500 All right.
00:18:49.580 Let me tell you about Good Ranchers.
00:18:50.640 Somewhere right now, there's a man walking a fence line.
00:18:53.140 He is checking for breaks after a storm rolled through overnight.
00:18:56.580 There's a woman who this morning is hauling feed before most people had even poured their first cup of coffee.
00:19:01.860 But they were out.
00:19:02.600 They were doing things.
00:19:03.440 All these people, they're the people who raise our food.
00:19:06.420 And they do it because something in them still believes in the value of honest work and doing the right things the right way.
00:19:13.760 Even when nobody's watching.
00:19:15.740 The truth is, family farms and ranches in this country are disappearing.
00:19:19.760 Our supermarkets are flooded with imported meat, boxed and labeled to look like it's from here.
00:19:24.440 But it's grown and processed thousands of miles away under standards that wouldn't pass on American soil.
00:19:30.280 And every time that happens, every time a local rancher can't compete, we lose a piece of who we are.
00:19:37.040 We must support our ranches and our farmers.
00:19:40.100 Ranchers and farms, they matter.
00:19:42.300 They don't just sell meat.
00:19:43.480 They're the source of 100% American meat if you get your meat from good ranchers.
00:19:50.140 They also support the kind of America you still want to live in.

00:20:09.000 Now back to the podcast.
00:20:11.140 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:20:14.300 All right.
00:20:14.560 Let me give you some good news here.
00:20:16.120 This is a post that was on X yesterday.
00:20:18.700 Came from the Health and Human Services Department.
00:20:22.660 Let me just read it to you.
00:20:25.180 HHS sent a letter to healthcare providers, risk managers, and state medical boards urging immediate updates to treatment protocols for minors with gender dysphoria based on HHS comprehensive review that found puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries have very weak evidence of benefit, but carry risk of significant harms, including sterilization.
00:20:52.660 Providers should no longer rely on discredited guidelines that promote these dangerous interventions for children and adolescents based on ideology and not evidence.
00:21:06.620 Wow.
00:21:07.700 Welcome to the return of common sense in medicine.
00:21:15.220 Now, RFK wrote that providers should avoid relying on the World Professional Health Association for Transgender Health.
00:21:22.720 That's WPATH.
00:21:23.860 Remember, we talked about that years ago when it first started coming out, and it was insanity.
00:21:27.700 So now healthcare providers should not rely on that from HHS.
00:21:34.340 It was one year ago we did a special exposing them for being ideological fraudsters, WPATH.
00:21:44.060 And, you know, they were doing—I mean, this is Frankenstein.
00:21:46.280 This is Frankenstein-like experiments on children and the mentally ill, all done with the support of the medical community in the name of science and gender-affirming care.
00:21:54.900 It's over.
00:21:56.540 Our doctors took them seriously.
00:21:58.560 They shouldn't have.
00:22:00.340 Now, here's what CNN said.
00:22:02.440 Kennedy's letter warns providers to avoid relying on guidelines from the World Professional Association for Transgender Health on Care and Transgender and Gender-Diverse People.
00:22:11.500 These and other guidelines based on so-called gender-affirming model of care should not be relied on for harm of our children any further, the letter says.
00:22:19.500 Good, good.
00:22:20.760 Kennedy says it's time for our doctors to now update all of the protocols.
00:22:25.280 Amen.
00:22:27.860 This is big news.
00:22:29.400 This is the first big step pulling us out of this death cult.
00:22:34.440 I mean, when you are chemically castrating our children in America and the doctors are calling that a good step forward, that's a spiritual disease.
00:22:44.500 And a lot of people voted for Donald Trump because they wanted to see an end to this.
00:22:51.500 And I hope this means that there is an end to it.
00:22:55.540 Dr. Oz is working on this, too, again, from CNN.
00:22:58.060 The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services also announced Wednesday, that was yesterday, it was launching an oversight initiative into hospitals that performed experimental sex trait modification procedures on children.
00:23:11.160 Administrator Dr. Oz said CMS will not turn a blind eye to procedures that lack a solid foundation of evidence and may result in lifelong harm.
00:23:22.060 Good.
00:23:23.380 We're not turning a blind eye to the children anymore, and we're saying this is wrong to do, and we're taking the right steps.
00:23:32.840 Now, all of this can be changed in the next election.
00:23:37.800 I mean, I hope not, but so much can change between now and 2020, 28, when we elect another president.
00:23:47.200 But I hope we start to see real improvement.
00:23:51.900 I know that a majority of Americans, for the first time since, can you tell me when, Stu, do you remember?
00:23:56.640 Remember, we looked this up when Americans said we were on the right track, wrong track, and we looked at it, and we're like, wait, we haven't thought we were on the right track since when?
00:24:06.420 Remember, it was a long time.
00:24:08.120 Yeah.
00:24:08.360 And for the first time, it's the majority.
00:24:10.900 It's over 50%.
00:24:12.480 And that's not, to be clear, not in every poll.
00:24:15.000 That is a poll that came out that showed that.
00:24:17.360 Like, the Gallup polls are still very much in the negative.
00:24:19.660 Oh, well, let me rain on your parade, too.
00:24:21.060 No, I'm just trying to give the poll picture.
00:24:23.220 Yeah, and those pants do make your butt look fat, okay?
00:24:27.240 I mean, what is that?
00:24:28.600 I will say it's up a little bit.
00:24:29.880 I mean, for sure, even in the polls that show it's still negative, it's still going in the right direction.
00:24:35.380 In the right direction.
00:24:36.100 In the right direction poll.
00:24:37.520 Right.
00:24:37.660 So, that's good.
00:24:38.360 That's a positive.
00:24:39.400 I'm glad to see that we are, you know, maybe catching up to Europe on this one.
00:24:43.600 It's great to see.
00:24:44.800 Well, we want to be more like Europe, right?
00:24:46.900 I mean, jeez.
00:24:48.000 In this one particular instance, oddly, we kind of do.
00:24:50.940 They seem to have figured this out before us.
00:24:52.860 Usually, they're far to the left of us, and we're always tracking toward their left-wing positions.
00:24:58.500 It seems like they have actually kind of woken up before us, which is, I think, stunning.
00:25:05.160 But I'm glad to see that, you know, certainly, you know, Trump is not on this bandwagon.
00:25:10.460 And now that he's in office, he can start reversing this nonsense.
00:25:14.520 You know what's amazing is, you know, we've had so many discussions on this, we've had so, but how many of them have actually been based in science?
00:25:20.880 Most of it is based in, you know, shouting you're a hate monger, or you just want to, you know, kill people, or you just hate transgender, all that crap.
00:25:29.980 Have you ever heard of the Dunning-Kruger effect?
00:25:33.040 Yes.
00:25:33.640 Yes.
00:25:34.040 You know what it is?
00:25:36.240 Yeah.
00:25:36.880 You could probably help me with a better definition, but my remembrance of it is, like, people who know very little about a topic tend to be the most confident at the beginning.
00:25:47.280 Yeah.
00:25:47.420 And then it kind of goes way down in their confidence as they learn more, and only when they become experts that they kind of say, hey, you know, there's a lot of nuance in the way they speak.
00:25:57.640 Correct.
00:25:58.220 Yeah.
00:25:58.500 Correct.
00:25:58.960 And it's, I mean, it carries another part to it.
00:26:03.340 And my grandmother knew this.
00:26:05.840 I mean, I think all of our grandmothers knew this.
00:26:08.040 Stupid people just don't know they're stupid.
00:26:10.200 They have no idea that they're stupid.
00:26:11.720 Yeah.
00:26:12.180 Okay.
00:26:12.400 That's a much better explanation.
00:26:13.820 And we are either living under the, you know, the Dunning-Kruger effect, or we're living under the Freddy Kruger effect.
00:26:24.200 I don't know which our society is embracing, but stupid people just don't know they're stupid.
00:26:29.440 And they get just a little bit, and I mean, I'm not talking about, oh, I forgot to cancel my free trial, stupid.
00:26:35.320 I mean, but stupid.
00:26:37.360 And, you know, when you're stupid, you feel like a genius.
00:26:43.680 And when you know a lot, you feel like an imposter.
00:26:47.420 Yeah.
00:26:47.960 That's totally, you know what I mean?
00:26:49.320 Right.
00:26:49.600 Yeah.
00:26:49.840 Like, I'm sure, do you notice this, Glenn, sometimes when, you know, you're out at a party or something, and you're talking to people, and they probably come to you and bring up topics they think you, you know, talk about on the air, because they know who you are.
00:27:03.540 Or, like, they'll bring up, you know, they'll bring up something about, I don't know, the Great Reset, right?
00:27:07.980 Whatever, yeah.
00:27:08.520 You know, progressivism.
00:27:10.800 And they'll say things, and you're like, oh, yeah, I know, sure.
00:27:16.380 Well, I mean, that's not exactly it, but I know what you're saying.
00:27:19.400 And it's like, because you've studied it for a long time, they probably haven't.
00:27:22.760 They've heard bits and pieces.
00:27:23.840 Maybe they've seen a little bit on social media.
00:27:25.980 But a lot of times, what carries with that is certainty, right?
00:27:29.840 Like, they've read a couple things on social media.
00:27:32.280 They're sure they're right, and they bring it to you, and you're like, ah, you know, sure, I know what you're saying, you know?
00:27:39.420 Let me address this on the air when I can tear you apart.
00:27:42.700 We're here together at a party.
00:27:44.880 Let's not talk about it.
00:27:46.180 No, that is absolutely true.
00:27:48.020 You remember what I said?
00:27:49.920 Everybody was making fun of me.
00:27:50.980 Glenn Beck's on his apology tour when I left Fox.
00:27:54.120 And because you do a lot of thinking when you go from one of the most, you know, beloved people, invisible people, to a fat person that, you know, is now hated by most people.
00:28:10.320 You know, you tend to think a lot.
00:28:12.480 And so what I was saying at the time.
00:28:15.340 About nutrition and other things, yeah.
00:28:15.960 And everything.
00:28:16.800 What I was saying at the time was, you know, I was so certain of things.
00:28:22.220 And that doesn't mean that I was wrong.
00:28:24.480 It was just that my approach, I was so certain of things.
00:28:27.240 And the only thing I'm certain of now is that I'm not certain of anything.
00:28:32.180 You know what I mean?
00:28:33.060 Yeah.
00:28:33.300 And that's kind of the mantra of my life now.
00:28:36.780 And it's really hard to do this job and say that, but it is what I believe.
00:28:44.220 The only thing I'm truly certain of is I'm not certain of anything.
00:28:48.920 Right.
00:28:49.400 And that doesn't mean you don't try to get to the truth.
00:28:51.740 It means that you're constantly reexamining what you believe.
00:28:56.860 I think that's where some of the social media world in this era of media has kind of lost the plot.
00:29:05.540 And that you should constantly be pushing yourself, right?
00:29:10.260 Like, when you think you know something, you should constantly be pushing yourself the other direction just to make sure.
00:29:17.720 Like, get the best arguments from the other side.
00:29:19.920 You know, there are policies that I agree with, and I want to hear the best policy arguments from the other side to see if my opinion should change.
00:29:28.540 You should be thinking that way, even if, you know, you're not going to necessarily change your viewpoint all the time.
00:29:33.060 You should be thinking about how to best challenge not only to see if you're right, but also to strengthen your argument for what you currently believe.
00:29:40.520 You know, I did an interview with Ro Khanna last week, and it was on the podcast.
00:29:45.680 It was very good.
00:29:46.360 I don't agree with him really on much of anything except fundamental principles of our country and what we were founded on.
00:29:53.680 But, you know, he's a big government guy and everything else, and he's a guy who's probably going to run for president.
00:29:59.460 And that's why I did the interviews, because you should know where he stands, who he is, et cetera, et cetera, because he's probably going to be one of the guys running for president in the Democratic Party.
00:30:09.420 And I want you to be informed on him.
00:30:12.200 So I do the interview, and I read all of these leftist responses on this and saying, look, even Ro Khanna can even get on Glenn Beck's program because he's so reasonable.
00:30:27.300 Well, yeah, that is true.
00:30:30.780 I do like to have reasonable people on, but I really don't have a problem talking to anybody.
00:30:37.860 It's not that they're changing.
00:30:40.700 It's not that Ro Khanna changed me.
00:30:45.400 I'm open to talk to people I disagree with.
00:30:47.820 Sure.
00:30:48.040 But the left generally isn't, you know, I'm open to talking to people.
00:30:54.220 If you can have a conversation, if you enter the conversation with absolute certainty, well, then I can't have a conversation with you because all it's going to end up being is a bash fest.
00:31:05.040 Well, you're just too stupid to understand.
00:31:07.400 Well, who's the stupid one?
00:31:09.140 Honestly.
00:31:09.520 I mean, you know, this is where it gets uncomfortable.
00:31:12.980 Statistically speaking, someone in the room here is the dumbest person.
00:31:17.940 And since it's just you and me, I got some bad news for you.
00:31:21.100 You know, and nobody, nobody, you know, everybody thinks that way.
00:31:28.280 And they don't think, well, maybe hang on.
00:31:30.320 Let me listen because I might learn something from from somebody.
00:31:34.680 And, you know, look at the arrogance on the doctors going back to the original story, which brought this up.
00:31:43.200 The doctors just started touting things they didn't actually know because the science did not back it up.
00:31:51.640 Not enough science had been done.
00:31:53.680 The ones that weren't arrogant were the ones, honestly, in Sweden and the Netherlands that actually looked at the science.
00:32:03.760 They were doing it.
00:32:04.620 And then they looked at the science and they looked at the studies and they were like, you know what?
00:32:07.560 We got to stop this because this is not right.
00:32:09.380 It's it's not what we thought it was.
00:32:11.680 But we continue just to double down and double down.
00:32:14.240 And it was without any information.
00:32:17.060 This is why I asked earlier today.
00:32:19.860 What was it we were talking about?
00:32:21.300 Oh, we were talking about the the new approach by the State Department, which Marco Rubio is just killing it.
00:32:27.480 And they they're starting to put out these, you know, they've got a, you know, sub stack.
00:32:35.340 And I read one of them at the beginning of the podcast today.
00:32:38.520 And it was really, really amazing that it was coming from our State Department.
00:32:43.860 And it should be something that everybody agrees with.
00:32:46.600 And quite honestly, every Democrat I know would agree with it, would have agreed with it.
00:32:52.760 But now that it's coming from the Trump administration, they won't agree with anything.
00:32:56.700 And I said, you know, I know why I've changed.
00:32:59.520 I've changed my mind on a lot of things.
00:33:02.960 And I am a different person than I was 20 years ago.
00:33:05.780 And I think that's good.
00:33:07.040 But I don't think Democrats are the same people either.
00:33:11.320 And what I'd like to know is what new information did you get that has allowed you to abandon the freedom of speech, freedom of religion, all of that?
00:33:26.700 What what what got you there?
00:33:28.780 What got you from a place of these endless wars don't work to, yeah, we got to go in and kick some ass in Ukraine and we got to topple Putin?
00:33:38.120 What what what changed?
00:33:40.060 Because I'm not there.
00:33:42.160 And I'd like to just say, I would have liked to meet you in the same room here because this is the room I always thought you were wrong on.
00:33:49.380 You were right.
00:33:50.900 But now you've changed.
00:33:53.180 I really want to know what new information came to you that made you go, you know, I'd have been wrong all these years.
00:34:03.140 You know, what new information came your way that saying drag shows in, you know, first grade is good for children?
00:34:12.160 I want specifics.
00:34:13.740 What new information?
00:34:15.600 Because you would have said anybody who did that should be arrested.
00:34:19.120 That's that doesn't belong with, you know, first graders.
00:34:21.580 It doesn't belong in the fourth grade.
00:34:23.180 We shouldn't be doing these things, what we're doing to our children.
00:34:27.240 I'm still at that place.
00:34:29.080 I didn't change on that.
00:34:30.100 I'm still there.
00:34:30.760 But you did change if you're on the other side as an average Democrat.
00:34:36.760 Please specifically tell me.
00:34:40.160 Why?
00:34:41.200 What?
00:34:41.820 New information.
00:34:44.520 Those are conversations I think America would love to hear.
00:34:48.100 Instead of just calling each other names, just tell me new information because maybe I'm wrong.
00:34:52.040 Maybe I'm wrong.
00:34:53.480 I don't think I am, but maybe I am.
00:34:55.260 So give me that new information that you got.
00:34:57.940 And don't don't make it about Trump and I won't make it about Biden.
00:35:01.020 How's that?
00:35:03.320 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:35:06.480 So last night on the Wednesday night show, I talked about why the, you know, why this thing with Joe Biden and who is actually running the White House and the auto pin and everything else.
00:35:20.080 Why that matters.
00:35:21.620 Um, and what, what do we actually know?
00:35:25.480 Um, and I had Ed Martin on, I don't know if you know who Ed Martin is, but he's a, he is the U S pardon attorney.
00:35:33.900 Um, and he works through the DOJ.
00:35:37.820 So he's the guy who knows, um, about these pardons, if they're going to be valid, et cetera, et cetera.
00:35:44.460 And, uh, I asked him last night and this has gone really viral.
00:35:49.080 What, what are the potential, uh, laws that were broken and the laws in the coverup, um, about his health and abuse of the auto pen.
00:36:00.200 Listen to his answer.
00:36:01.420 There's many, many laws that I would say apply to this.
00:36:04.180 You know, they get, someone brought up forgery.
00:36:06.020 Forgery is the beginning of a conversation.
00:36:08.120 I think fraud, um, you know, there's all kinds of aspects of fraud that could be done.
00:36:12.460 If somebody is making money, big money off of it.
00:36:14.740 Um, you know, there's, there's many things I, if president Trump used in a truth, social,
00:36:18.540 a post about treason.
00:36:19.740 And I think I'm, I, as a member of DOJ, I'm going to tread carefully towards what I would describe as the likely crime.
00:36:26.160 But, but there's a lot, if, if this was an abuse, like people are worried, there's a lot of crimes that were committed.
00:36:32.200 And there will be, if the facts show that it was happening, the DOJ will pursue aggressively justice.
00:36:44.600 The only way I know to do it is being aggressive.
00:36:47.140 Glenn, you probably have seen this now.
00:36:48.900 So yes, I mean, uh, we're going to get to the bottom of the facts.
00:36:51.580 We're going to apply it to the law and we're going to go, uh, uh, like hell against the people that did this to the country.
00:36:56.920 And, uh, you know, this is the biggest scandal I could ever imagine in our lives.
00:37:00.660 This, there's never been anything like this at this point.
00:37:03.020 And so I hope it's the less, I hope it's a lesser scandal than it looks like, but it's headed towards one of the most, uh, egregious things we've ever seen.
00:37:10.940 So yes, people will be held accountable and yes, they will be held accountable by prosecutions.
00:37:17.940 Wow.
00:37:19.660 One of the biggest scandal it's headed.
00:37:21.500 I hope it's less, but it's headed towards the biggest scandal we've ever had.
00:37:25.500 Holy cow.
00:37:28.660 Um, and that's from a guy who's very, very reasoned and measured.
00:37:32.140 Um, and he is, you know, he's the guy who does the pardons.
00:37:35.300 And I asked him, you know, are these things even valid?
00:37:39.140 You know, if it gets proven that other people, you know, uh, use the auto pen without the president's knowledge of approval or any of these things valid.
00:37:48.880 Listen to what he said, cut five, this is a $64,000 question, but let's just do it as a hypothetical to be a little bit more, uh, a little bit less specific to this.
00:37:58.280 If, uh, if I can, if you and I go and enter a contract and, and it turns out that you were not capable of entering into the contract, right.
00:38:06.160 And depending on how I relied on it, you know, if I went and did something and I was paid for it, you know, I might make the argument that you have to honor that, but in general, that's not a valid contract.
00:38:15.120 So, you know, the validity of these things, whether they're pardons or other, uh, actions is going to come into question.
00:38:22.080 And I think there's some, some details and legal questions that are going to be a little bit harder, but, um, but you can see that it's, it's, um, and, and here's, what's more troubling, uh, to me is if some of these pardons were issued because they were being engineered.
00:38:36.600 You know, for, for, for example, to, to, to, to, for Fauci or for the, the select committee on January 6th to, to buy someone who's taking advantage of, of Joe Biden in order to cover things up.
00:38:48.320 Well, you know, I can't be the, what the system contemplated.
00:38:52.420 And, and so, uh, I think that's all going to come into question.
00:38:55.440 Yes.
00:38:56.660 Jeez.
00:38:57.780 Uh, now let me play one more clip.
00:38:59.640 This is from David Hogg.
00:39:01.100 David Hogg.
00:39:03.000 I don't think I need to even point out, you know, his history on who he is.
00:39:07.860 Listen to what he said.
00:39:09.980 Listen.
00:39:10.560 I mean, I did the fact that the DNC is always going to be like a campaign arm of the president.
00:39:14.840 Ultimately, the bigger issue was like the inner circle that was without Biden.
00:39:19.880 That's it.
00:39:20.600 And I can't stress, I can't stress you enough.
00:39:22.500 Like Joe Biden's chief of staff, like had an enormous amount of power.
00:39:26.600 Joe Biden?
00:39:27.260 Joe Biden's chief of staff.
00:39:28.680 That was like a open secret at the left.
00:39:30.240 Like, I, I would avoid him.
00:39:32.820 Like he was scary.
00:39:33.820 What was his name?
00:39:34.780 Um, Anthony.
00:39:38.200 I've never seen him.
00:39:39.520 Exactly.
00:39:40.800 What do you mean?
00:39:41.480 He's just like a, he's like a shadowy, like wizard of Oz type figure.
00:39:45.440 That's what made him so like, I knew how he looked, but I'm like the general public wouldn't
00:39:49.100 know how this man looked, but he wielded any, like an enormous amount of power.
00:39:54.940 And I can't stress to you how much power he had in the White House.
00:39:57.560 Uh, that was on a project Veritas, uh, hidden video.
00:40:03.920 I mean, what these guys knew and, uh, how they just all dealt with it and just said,
00:40:08.960 you know, ends justify the means.
00:40:11.140 Can you imagine, uh, Jill Biden was running the White House, her, you know, her chief of
00:40:18.260 staff.
00:40:18.640 That's who is running all of this.
00:40:20.180 Yeah.
00:40:21.360 Anthony, Anthony Bernal is, is he's by the way, one of the central characters in the
00:40:25.600 Jake Tapper, uh, Alex Thompson book, uh, original sin as well as seen kind of described almost
00:40:31.760 exactly that way, uh, as a guy who everyone was afraid of.
00:40:35.700 And that was, uh, making a lot of the decisions around the White House, one of four or five people,
00:40:42.600 but, uh, he was one of the main ones, which is again, you know, you think about, we didn't
00:40:48.140 elect Anthony Bernal, president of the United States.
00:40:51.740 We, we didn't.
00:40:52.720 Or Jill Biden.
00:40:53.540 Or Jill Biden.
00:40:54.560 At least we knew who Jill Biden was.
00:40:56.800 Uh, but no, we didn't, we didn't elect them.
00:40:58.900 We were, we have a constitutional system that says that he's supposed to be making these
00:41:03.440 decisions, uh, Joe Biden.
00:41:05.120 Uh, and he was not making them, I think quite clearly at this point, at least as being, uh,
00:41:10.380 his access to information and to even his own cabinet officials seems to have been, uh,
00:41:15.060 being controlled by the people close to him.
00:41:19.100 And what is the, what's the, what's the book say about, uh, Hunter Biden?
00:41:22.500 Cause I've heard that Hunter Biden was making all of the family decisions.
00:41:25.920 Yeah.
00:41:26.400 At the time.
00:41:26.980 Uh, it's basically talks about how, you know, and it talks about how Joe Biden was, uh,
00:41:32.420 a big part of his decline happened around the time that Hunter was dealing with all these
00:41:38.780 legal issues.
00:41:39.960 Um, you know, they described Joe in the book, I would say as crushed by his losses over the
00:41:45.960 years of, you know, he'd lost two children, obviously previously, and this was, he was
00:41:50.320 worried about losing a third.
00:41:51.800 Uh, and for that reason, he was, uh, insanely loyal to Hunter and, and believing that he was
00:42:00.520 actually a good guy.
00:42:01.940 Now, again, that's talking a lot about motivation.
00:42:04.100 I don't know what the reason was, but yeah, that is exactly what you described.
00:42:07.840 I mean, I think that, I mean, I, I've known that from the get go.
00:42:11.880 The guy was, the guy was crushed, um, by, you know, the death of his other son and he
00:42:18.300 was loyal to a fault to this son, um, and was doing more damage, you know, and when you
00:42:24.620 say that he, he really believed that he was a good guy, you got to remember, you're talking
00:42:29.220 about Joe Biden's version of a good guy.
00:42:32.300 Right.
00:42:33.120 Right.
00:42:33.540 I mean, and, and it's different than my version with multiple layers on top of this, the corruption
00:42:38.140 being, um, the one I think you're referring to there, but also the senility and the elements
00:42:44.000 of senility that had stepped, you know, into his life.
00:42:47.120 Uh, you know, I don't think he was able to make those decisions anyway.
00:42:50.580 In the book, when do they say that he really kind of checked out?
00:42:54.920 When was his, they described, when was he kind of done?
00:42:58.840 They describe it as sort of a multi-phase process that began in 2015.
00:43:04.840 Um, now you might recognize 2015 as a time he was not president, but was still vice president
00:43:11.400 of the United States.
00:43:13.340 Um, but going back to 2015, they say it started there.
00:43:17.160 It wasn't constant then though, that people would notice he was having, uh, moments, bad
00:43:23.040 moments, um, you know, bad days, but it started picking up in 2018.
00:43:28.940 Uh, and then, uh, again, before he was president, uh, they, some of it was noticed in 2020.
00:43:35.080 They say the real collapse off, you know, what were you saying?
00:43:39.420 You said this earlier, when do you, how do you go bankrupt?
00:43:41.480 Well, very slowly and then all at once, um, they, they say kind of the same thing about
00:43:47.000 his mental capacity and that it was fading from 2015, but really fell off a cliff in 2023.
00:43:54.160 Um, now I, obviously we all noticed stuff in 2020, 2021 throughout that period.
00:44:00.480 And they say it was there.
00:44:02.920 They just say it wasn't as consistent.
00:44:04.780 It was really noticeable, even to the people close to him, even to the people who were cheering
00:44:09.400 him on and wanting him to succeed, the, it became so overwhelming in the year in 2023 and
00:44:15.920 obviously into 2024.
00:44:18.200 You know, it's really amazing to me.
00:44:19.860 You, you know, that the ends justify the means, um, to these people.
00:44:25.520 Um, if in 2018 they were spotting it and going, he is, he's going downhill because if you, if
00:44:34.140 you really believed in the presidency, if you believed in the constitution and what the
00:44:39.380 president was going to have to do, my God, carrying the nuclear football, just that alone.
00:44:45.900 And if you, if you really truly understand that and respect that there's no way you would
00:44:51.920 say, yeah, let's go ahead and just run him anyway, because you, you legally and constitutionally
00:44:59.220 cannot stand in for him.
00:45:01.320 And then what do they do?
00:45:02.880 If you're going to do that, say, cause he could win great, then let's get the strongest vice
00:45:08.320 president.
00:45:08.800 We can, because if he starts to really fade, we got to have a, somebody who can really run
00:45:15.100 it.
00:45:15.880 Um, so maybe we use him to get elected, but you know, the first sign of real trouble we're
00:45:21.660 out.
00:45:22.120 And what do they do?
00:45:23.140 They get the weakest person to be the vice president.
00:45:25.920 It shows from the beginning, this was a puppet regime.
00:45:30.520 Yeah.
00:45:30.600 They talk a little bit.
00:45:31.300 That's incredible to say.
00:45:32.340 They talk a little bit about that pick, um, and they go through the moments of how they
00:45:35.980 picked, uh, Kamala Harris a little bit.
00:45:38.600 And it, they basically said he wanted Whitmer.
00:45:42.280 Um, now again, Whitmer also would have sucked as a vice president.
00:45:45.140 I'm not saying, um, but, uh, that Biden wanted Whitmer.
00:45:49.140 He was more comfortable with Whitmer.
00:45:50.440 The family thought Whitmer would be a better pick partially because they, uh, Jill, because
00:45:56.260 of Jill Biden, Jill saw, um, the actions that Kamala took during the debate and would not
00:46:03.340 forgive her for that when she basically called her husband a racist.
00:46:07.500 Um, and also interestingly, it wasn't just, Hey, you called my husband a racist.
00:46:11.840 That makes me mad.
00:46:12.820 It was that Jill, I think correctly diagnosed the idea that only a person with incredible,
00:46:20.460 uh, uh, desire to rise in the ranks would do such a thing, right?
00:46:27.640 Like only someone with all sorts of, uh, uh, uh, of want and need for higher levels of power
00:46:35.740 would do that.
00:46:36.620 So she did not want Kamala according to the book, uh, but, uh, and, and Whitmer was the
00:46:42.140 one that even, uh, Biden wanted.
00:46:44.400 However, they, uh, I mean, it came down to skin color.
00:46:48.080 I mean, it really did come down to that where, you know, the, his allies, uh, particularly
00:46:52.700 on, uh, the, the side of the, you know, people like climb, uh, Clyburn, uh, wanted an African
00:46:58.560 American on the ticket, uh, that was believed to be his strength with, with, with voters in
00:47:03.540 the primary and, and on, uh, so they kind of just picked her because she, you know, checked
00:47:09.320 those boxes.
00:47:09.940 I mean, it's as, as, as bad of a DEI thing that we always talked about.
00:47:14.120 I mean, litter, quite literally the president of the United States, according to this book
00:47:18.760 did not want Kamala Harris to be vice president and instead picked her anyway, because of these,
00:47:26.880 you know, uh, intersectional boxes that needed to be checked.
00:47:31.080 And if you said that the press demonized you and said, you're crazy.
00:47:40.480 And now it's all coming out that, yeah, that's absolutely true.
00:47:44.220 I mean, it's real, it's really amazing what they put the country through.
00:47:47.800 It's really the entire saga of this book too, right?
00:47:49.940 Like all these things were things we were all saying, you know, there, there's not like
00:47:54.840 there's tons of information we didn't know that is in the book, but it all supports things
00:47:59.640 we did know we all knew this is all going on.
00:48:03.240 We didn't have the background information.
00:48:05.260 We weren't in the private meetings because even his own cabinet officials weren't in
00:48:09.580 the private meetings.
00:48:10.880 Uh, but you know, it was obvious to people just by the public stuff and the, the behind
00:48:15.920 the scenes stuff, as opposed to what we heard on media, which was, Oh, she's sharp as a tack.
00:48:21.080 You should see him when he's not on camera.
00:48:22.560 Uh, maybe we should film those moments if that's really what's happening.
00:48:26.100 Uh, but in reality, that safe stuff was going on and it seemingly was worse behind the scenes
00:48:30.820 than it was in front of the camera.
00:48:32.940 That's incredible.
00:48:34.060 You, you, you wouldn't think that would be possible.
