00:00:00.000 What a wild show today.
00:00:01.320 Jamie Kilstein joins us, has some great conversations about what it's like to convert to Christianity.
00:00:07.240 In the middle of that, we find out about Hunter Biden and his possibly going to jail and all the ramifications of that.
00:00:15.200 What does that mean?
00:00:16.120 How would Joe Biden get away with pardoning if he was going to pardon?
00:00:21.320 Or is this just the system showing everyone that we put him in jail, we can put Trump in jail?
00:00:28.440 All that discussion and so much more on today's podcast.
00:00:31.960 Let me tell you about Jace Medical.
00:00:33.860 Jace Medical is there.
00:00:35.800 It's important for you to have a Jace case.
00:00:39.600 You know, nobody who looks at our economy for more than a minute thinks that, you know, I think things are getting better.
00:00:46.160 Inflation is still high, could easily get higher soon.
00:00:48.920 And this has a spiraling effect.
00:00:51.200 People aren't able to pay their expenses, so they're falling further and further behind.
00:00:55.360 Consumer sentiment is at the lowest level in the past half year.
00:01:00.260 Who can blame us?
00:01:01.760 You've seen what our overrun health care system looks like when the economy is booming.
00:01:06.160 Imagine what could be now, especially with 10 million new Americans coming across.
00:01:13.720 Jace is a personalized emergency kit that contains essential antibiotics and medications that treat the most common and deadly bacterial infections.
00:01:21.760 Five, life-saving antibiotics for emergency use.
00:01:25.460 You just fill out a simple form online.
00:01:27.900 You'll have the case when you need it.
00:01:30.100 Jace case.
00:01:31.240 Make sure you get it.
00:01:31.940 You can get EpiPens and Ivermectin as well.
00:01:35.300 Go to Jace.com.

00:01:47.000 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:01.600 Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
00:02:03.640 We're glad you're here.
00:02:06.580 Stu, I hate to even mention Juneteenth because it is such a ridiculous thing outside of Texas.
00:02:14.420 In Texas, it's a known holiday and it's a big deal.
00:02:19.540 But Juneteenth for the rest of the country is meaningless.
00:02:25.000 But Joe Biden was at a Juneteenth concert yesterday and he was rocking it.
00:02:31.320 He was rocking it.
00:02:32.300 I want to show you some video if you're watching on the blaze.
00:02:35.300 Stu, maybe you can do the play-by-play and describe what's happening here.
00:02:39.040 Go ahead.
00:02:39.520 Cut one.
00:02:40.260 Biden standing in the crowd like a statue.
00:02:42.840 Everyone around him dancing.
00:02:44.460 He's literally not moving a muscle.
00:02:48.060 Oh, my God.
00:02:50.600 There's music playing and the dancing is going on.
00:02:54.100 But he...
00:02:54.840 I mean, he's not.
00:02:57.660 It almost looks edited that he's like so motionless and stiff.
00:03:03.960 Yeah.
00:03:04.580 Like a corpse.
00:03:05.360 Now, you know, it's interesting you brought up that editing thing because that's just such a short clip.
00:03:12.880 You know, you don't know.
00:03:14.780 You know, he probably was rocking it.
00:03:16.960 Right.
00:03:17.460 You know, just a couple of frames later.
00:03:19.940 So here's the full clip.
00:03:23.080 Five times the rate.
00:03:25.960 Five times the speed.
00:03:27.000 Here we go.
00:03:27.380 Cut to it.
00:03:27.840 Oh, my gosh.
00:03:29.880 What is going on?
00:03:31.160 Everyone around him is moving and he's not moving at all.
00:03:35.760 And especially the guy in the sequin dress.
00:03:38.180 Three people down from him.
00:03:39.640 Look at this.
00:03:43.100 Now they're sitting.
00:03:46.680 Yeah, he's barely moving.
00:03:48.000 That's very strange.
00:03:49.840 Very strange.
00:03:50.560 Now, it would be better than him actually dancing.
00:03:53.380 And that may have been his thought process there.
00:03:55.360 Like, if I try to dance, it's going to look terrible.
00:03:58.460 I'm not sure there was a thought process there at all.
00:04:00.720 You know?
00:04:01.000 I'm not sure of it, no.
00:04:02.720 Yeah.
00:04:03.380 Yeah.
00:04:03.860 Not sure of that at all.
00:04:06.060 Now, maybe we could get him the new Apple Intelligence.
00:04:09.940 Did you see this come out yesterday?
00:04:11.300 I did, yeah.
00:04:12.540 New Apple AI.
00:04:14.340 Elon Musk is not real happy about this.
00:04:17.220 He said, I won't let any Apple product into any of my buildings if you go through with this.
00:04:26.160 Here's just from the Apple announcement yesterday.
00:04:32.380 Here's the new Apple Intelligence Calculator.
00:04:35.980 Math notes are also really powerful when it comes to more complex math.
00:04:41.280 Here, I have a physics problem my teammate and I are working on.
00:04:44.800 We're calculating the maximum height of a table tennis ball when I hit it with different speeds and angles.
00:04:51.800 Math notes supports variables.
00:04:53.540 So I've declared a few here and there's an expression below, which uses these variables to help me calculate the height.
00:05:00.640 What's powerful about variables is that if I change one, like the velocity of my shot,
00:05:06.740 it will change the related results too.
00:05:08.940 And if I want to see how this speed impacts the height visually, I can.
00:05:14.680 I'll just put Y equals in front of this equation. 0.96
00:05:17.700 And now, when I tap the equals sign, I have an option to create a graph.
00:05:25.500 And if I'm curious how the height will be impacted by the angle of my shot,
00:05:29.700 I can hover my pencil over the angle and adjust it to see how it affects my graph in real time.
00:05:36.440 It's an easy way to explore equations in math.
00:05:39.380 It's pretty impressive.
00:05:44.160 Yeah, I'm not even sure what she was even talking about.
00:05:47.180 I need AI to explain what she was trying to...
00:05:51.380 The velocity of a ping pong table and the height and how you hit it?
00:05:56.920 Okay.
00:05:57.260 I don't know that the velocity of the ping pong table is particularly notable in that equation.
00:06:01.520 Ping pong ball, yes.
00:06:02.200 Yes, you're right.
00:06:03.120 Ping pong table, zero.
00:06:05.220 Right.
00:06:05.640 Good job.
00:06:06.040 It's the velocity of zero.
00:06:07.700 The Joe Biden velocity when he's dancing.
00:06:09.780 Right.
00:06:10.940 Yeah.
00:06:11.860 That Joe Biden looks like a table.
00:06:14.740 It is really impressive on what AI can do.
00:06:18.860 You know, it's just also really spooky on what AI can do.
00:06:25.420 And, you know, Ray Kurzweil's idea is that it'll make us all better.
00:06:29.780 It will make us all...
00:06:31.620 It'll free up our mind if we don't have to think about the calculations.
00:06:35.540 We can think about deeper things.
00:06:38.640 No.
00:06:39.900 No, we're not going to think deeper things.
00:06:42.540 We're not going to store even more knowledge.
00:06:45.320 We're probably going to watch more porn and play more games.
00:06:50.340 Yeah.
00:06:51.100 You know, that's probably what will happen.
00:06:53.100 You mentioned, I think, yesterday, Glenn, the Doug Burgum origin story.
00:06:58.100 Like, the Doug Burgum prequel to the superhero he's become today.
00:07:02.600 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:07:03.940 And it was essentially this in a nutshell.
00:07:06.860 He had a bunch of calculations he did by hand.
00:07:09.440 And someone showed him that a computer could do it for him more quickly.
00:07:13.220 And he decided to go into the software industry.
00:07:15.340 Right.
00:07:16.200 And it's like, that is kind of what this stuff is going to do.
00:07:20.980 But we have good evidence as to whether people start thinking more deeply about things when that revolution happens.
00:07:28.140 No, we just start looking at dumb seven-second videos on TikTok.
00:07:33.280 Like, that's what we do.
00:07:34.360 We turn our brains off completely and never think again.
00:07:38.880 Yes, exactly right.
00:07:40.460 Exactly right.
00:07:41.120 And how's that going to work out for us?
00:07:42.920 I don't think really well.
00:07:44.020 Let me go to cut six here. 0.72
00:07:46.980 This is Nancy Pelosi taking responsibility for the lack of January 6th security. 1.00
00:07:52.980 We have responsibility, Terry.
00:07:55.820 We did not have any accountability for what was going on there.
00:08:00.440 And we should have.
00:08:02.160 This is ridiculous.
00:08:03.400 You're going to ask me in the middle of the thing when they've already breached the inaugural stuff that, should we call the Capitol Police?
00:08:15.480 I mean, the National Guard?
00:08:17.460 Why weren't the National Guard there to begin with?
00:08:21.940 They thought that they had sufficient resources.
00:08:23.960 No, there's not a question of how they had made it.
00:08:26.080 They don't know.
00:08:27.000 They clearly didn't know.
00:08:29.540 And I take responsibility for not having them just prepared for more.
00:08:35.500 Yeah, they should.
00:08:38.540 Yeah.
00:08:40.360 Now, here's Nancy Pelosi about that clip. 0.94
00:08:44.880 The fact is that the president of the United States, the former president, and his toadies do not want to face the facts.
00:08:53.740 They're trying to do revisionist history on January 6th.
00:08:58.900 But we cannot let us be dragged into their, again, false impression of what happened that day.
00:09:08.240 They know what happened that day.
00:09:13.020 Yeah.
00:09:14.180 How is it that releasing the clip of her taking responsibility and saying,
00:09:22.600 I should have known?
00:09:23.340 How come they weren't there?
00:09:24.600 Somebody knew.
00:09:25.400 Why didn't I know?
00:09:28.040 How is playing that clip revisionist history?
00:09:32.320 Wouldn't revisionist history be, I don't know, what she's saying now?
00:09:40.080 Yeah, she's revising what actually occurred to her own benefit.
00:09:44.100 That is her version of revisionist history.
00:09:47.380 I mean, I just don't.
00:09:49.360 Let's see.
00:09:53.920 Let me play this illegal immigrant talking to Fox News. 0.72
00:10:02.580 He's going to...
00:10:04.720 Well, he's not saying he's going to vote.
00:10:07.200 But if he was going to vote, how would he vote?
00:10:09.480 Cut nine.
00:10:10.660 What do you think of President Biden?
00:10:13.100 Biden?
00:10:13.780 I love Biden.
00:10:14.600 Why do you love him?
00:10:18.280 Biden, help us.
00:10:25.880 That's good.
00:10:26.980 That's a really in-depth clip, yeah.
00:10:29.260 Yeah, I know.
00:10:29.980 And it's weird because there's no...
00:10:32.380 There's not a lot of Americans that are saying that right now.
00:10:35.120 You know, Biden helped us.
00:10:38.080 No, I can't see that.
00:10:40.380 62% of Americans now back mass deportations of illegal immigrants.
00:10:49.080 62%.
00:10:49.920 Do you know who almost unanimously don't agree with that?
00:10:57.540 Illegal immigrants. 1.00
00:10:59.540 In a new poll, it shows that they're almost 100% in lockstep against mass deportations.
00:11:07.000 So, wow.
00:11:10.600 You know what that is?
00:11:11.860 You know what that is?
00:11:12.700 This is...
00:11:14.000 Biden couldn't convince people anymore of...
00:11:18.420 They're going to put you all back in chains.
00:11:20.980 He couldn't convince black people of that lie anymore. 1.00
00:11:26.340 This is the new black people back in chains. 1.00
00:11:29.260 He's going to send you back to your country. 1.00
00:11:33.500 Yeah.
00:11:34.540 Yeah.
00:11:35.520 That one's true.
00:11:36.700 The back in chains thing was never true.
00:11:41.700 But, you know, that's what they'll do, I guess.
00:11:46.060 Now there, the New York Times again, is showing the rights racism.
00:11:51.800 Two black Republican House members and Trump surrogates reserved a cigar bar near downtown Philadelphia last week
00:12:00.960 and invited conservative organizers and Trump-curious black voters to smoke and sip cognac.
00:12:08.960 Some Democrats denounced it as a crass play rooted in stereotypes.
00:12:14.860 Did the people who attended the event think that?
00:12:19.400 Where they were like, gosh, he is really stereotyping us.
00:12:22.280 That's why I'm going?
00:12:23.780 Well, I've had a problem with this story for the last couple of days, and I bring it to the table today because I still can't figure it out.
00:12:32.820 Let me just read this again.
00:12:34.960 Trump surrogates reserved a cigar bar near downtown Philadelphia last week, invited conservative organizers and Trump-curious black voters to smoke and sip cognac.
00:12:44.920 Now, when I think of cognac, I think, lovey, I need my cognac.
00:12:53.760 I don't, are blacks known for their cigar and cognac evenings?
00:13:00.020 Because I really thought that was an elitist white, you know, I always, I would think of George Soros being like, yes, and then we kill all of them as he's, you know, warming the cognac under his, you know, in his hand.
00:13:14.700 Yes.
00:13:15.760 And maybe mutilate them a little bit too.
00:13:17.840 It's kind of fun.
00:13:19.360 I don't see the, what's the stereotype there?
00:13:22.620 I mean, Hennessy is occasionally associated with an African-American demographic, perhaps.
00:13:31.640 I don't know if that's accurate, but I've, you know, I've heard people say that that's something, like in, you know, pop culture and stuff that I've seen.
00:13:40.500 But I don't know if it's actually a real thing.
00:13:43.720 Like, I don't know if the people utilize it in that way.
00:13:46.300 I mean, you know, you could, if they were like, come on down and have menthol cigarettes and Colt 45, then maybe, maybe.
00:13:56.700 But the menthol cigarette thing comes from Joe Biden trying to buy people into voting for him by not taxing menthol cigarettes even higher.
00:14:11.280 He's going to hold off on that.
00:14:12.640 He wants to get rid of menthol cigarettes because they blow a hole in your lung.
00:14:16.860 But he's going to, he's going to hold off because them blacks like their menthol cigarettes, apparently. 1.00
00:14:24.660 It's incredible.
00:14:25.980 Who's the, it's, watching, watching this stuff pour out of the news every day is, is a funhouse mirror.
00:14:35.060 It's like a magic show.
00:14:36.140 It's like watching a magic show.
00:14:37.860 Everything just goes in and it comes out a rabbit.
00:14:41.080 And you're like, wait, that was an egg that he put in.
00:14:43.940 How did a chicken come out of the hat?
00:14:45.900 I don't understand that.
00:14:47.440 Somehow or another.
00:14:48.260 But I've never gone to like David Copperfield and said, you know, I'd like to get some advice on you and from you and what's really going on because you made a coin disappear.
00:14:57.620 These people are making things disappear and reappear and, and making it look like one thing when it's another.
00:15:04.120 I mean, it's a magic show.
00:15:06.520 Do you think.
00:15:07.340 And I don't think there's at any time in history we've ever asked for the advice from a magician.
00:15:12.440 Usually not a good idea.
00:15:13.600 Do you think this works?
00:15:15.220 I mean, what was it?
00:15:16.940 Typically about 90% of African-American voters go for the Democrat.
00:15:20.580 I do think it works.
00:15:21.380 Um, and now it's reportedly around, uh, between 75 and 80 and a lot of these polls.
00:15:28.120 So it's art.
00:15:28.720 There's already been movement.
00:15:29.960 Is this, are these efforts something that work or is the, does the.
00:15:34.620 I think it does with Donald Trump.
00:15:35.860 It does.
00:15:36.540 It does.
00:15:37.520 I mean, he got 12% from black men in 2020.
00:15:41.460 If he can get, um, 20, 25%, well, I, I think that changes the game and it's why they're having
00:15:51.460 to import new voters, uh, on the democratic side.
00:15:56.440 Let me talk to you about pre-born hard to believe that this month marks two years since Roe versus
00:16:01.940 Wade was overturned.
00:16:03.200 We still celebrate that decision, but at the same time with the good came a lot of bad.
00:16:08.040 The number of abortions actually increased after this went down last year, they were
00:16:13.620 at their highest since 2012.
00:16:16.100 There's still a lot of work that pre-born and all of us have to do.
00:16:19.400 Pre-born is the largest pro-life organization in the country, and they are leading the charge
00:16:24.460 to put an end to the atrocity of abortion every day.
00:16:28.420 They sponsor through you free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to
00:16:33.940 two years after the baby is born.
00:16:36.480 When a mom sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears the heartbeat, she's twice as
00:16:41.360 likely to consider choosing life for her baby.
00:16:44.060 $28 sponsors one ultrasound.
00:16:46.200 Will you help?
00:16:47.180 140 helps rescue five babies.
00:16:50.180 If you can do $28 a month, that's the price of two of you going to McDonald's.
00:16:56.120 Isn't it worth saving two babies?
00:16:58.800 Give now.
00:16:59.600 Just donate by dialing pound 250, pound 250.
00:17:04.220 Say the keyword baby.
00:17:05.700 That's pound 250, keyword baby.

00:17:13.660 Now back to the podcast.
00:17:16.720 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:17:19.440 So, let me just give you this story first.
00:17:27.320 A Ukrainian publication with the editor-in-chief, who has ties to the U.S. State Department,
00:17:32.980 has placed dozens of American politicians, activists, and media outlets, including Blaze
00:17:37.640 Media and Glenn Beck, on a list of those allegedly known to have shared Russian disinformation
00:17:43.340 or otherwise made anti-Ukrainian statements.
00:17:46.140 On Thursday, texty.org, an independent media outlet that fuses data journalism projects
00:17:55.940 with traditional journalistic genres.
00:17:59.520 This, according to their website, they published an article entitled Rollercoaster from Trumpists
00:18:06.180 to Communists.
00:18:07.360 The forces in the U.S. impeding aid to Ukraine and how they do it.
00:18:13.580 Now, there's 75 of us on this list, but nearly 400 entities that have opposed sending aid to
00:18:22.360 Ukraine in its war against Russia.
00:18:25.840 We were mentioned, Blaze Media and myself mentioned, on pages 34 of a 47-page list, the anti-Ukrainian
00:18:33.980 Blaze Media links are all from 2023.
00:18:37.360 They include one, which Blaze News article, there's one Blaze News article, two tweets,
00:18:43.620 one of which is just showing a clip and a quote from Tucker Carlson, who's also on the list,
00:18:49.700 and then three segments with Blaze Media's Glenn Beck.
00:18:54.320 Okay.
00:18:56.120 Okay.
00:18:58.280 Now, what were the clips?
00:19:01.240 Well, the first clip that they had a problem with was that I had said that the plan to go
00:19:10.580 into Russia, or to have Ukraine fight Russia and us to back them up, was in the works in
00:19:18.840 2016.
00:19:20.500 And texty came out and said, that is an absolute lie.
00:19:24.420 Hey, he's just making this stuff up.
00:19:27.760 Well, the reason why I said that is because we found a clip that I had never seen before.
00:19:36.760 This is Lindsey Graham with John McCain in the background during election 2016 in Ukraine,
00:19:45.500 talking to the generals and the troops, listen to what he said.
00:19:49.920 Your fight is our fight.
00:19:51.660 Your fight is our fight.
00:19:53.720 2017 will be the year of offense.
00:19:56.680 2017 will be the year of offense.
00:19:59.280 All of us will go back to Washington and we will push the case against Russia.
00:20:05.360 We will push the case against Russia.
00:20:13.460 Enough of a Russian aggression. 0.90
00:20:16.600 It is time for them to pay a heavier price.
00:20:18.780 Our fight is not with the Russian people but with Putin.
00:20:25.760 We will fight not with the Russian people but with Putin. 0.85
00:20:27.720 Our promise to you is to take your calls to Washington, inform the American people of your bravery, and make the case against Putin to the world.
00:20:48.720 Okay, isn't that what happened in 2020? Or 2021? Isn't that exactly what happened?
00:21:01.340 Now, Russia did invade. I'm not going to make a case for Vladimir Putin being a good guy, because he's an absolute monster.
00:21:11.060 However, you know, when you have the State Department doing a color revolution in 2014 in Ukraine to get rid of the Russian that they say was running Ukraine,
00:21:25.820 and then you have Lindsey Graham and John McCain during the election saying 2017 is the year we go on offense.
00:21:37.120 It's time they pay a heavier price.
00:21:43.800 Well, I would say that that kind of sounds like, you know, we're for going right after Russia. 0.87
00:21:49.140 Our fight's not with the Russian people, just Vladimir Putin.
00:21:54.200 That sounds like regime change. Does it not?
00:21:59.460 Now, why didn't it happen in 2017?
00:22:02.500 Because the unthinkable happened.
00:22:06.320 Donald Trump was elected.
00:22:09.700 That's what happened.
00:22:12.160 Donald Trump was elected.
00:22:14.400 In 2017, he became the president of the United States.
00:22:19.420 And what happened?
00:22:21.660 He, all of a sudden, was painted as a guy who was for Russia.
00:22:26.380 And the Russian interference, forget the Chinese, just the Russian interference alone.
00:22:32.480 So, the enemy of Hillary Clinton and the State Department and everybody else,
00:22:38.040 the enemy became Russia and Donald Trump, tied closely together.
00:22:46.100 So, the offense had to wait for four years.
00:22:49.520 But they continued to smear Donald Trump with Russia.
00:22:55.440 That was the whole case.
00:22:58.860 Okay.
00:22:59.740 So, now let me go on.
00:23:02.820 Let me tell you about a show we did a few weeks ago.
00:23:05.060 Now, regime change.
00:23:09.140 It's been United States policy for a very long time.
00:23:12.720 Covert CIA operations.
00:23:14.760 We go in, we manipulate the foreign media, we meddle in elections, we topple governments.
00:23:20.660 And then, you know, we go back to saying, we didn't do that.
00:23:24.020 What are you talking about?
00:23:25.380 This started with the Cold War.
00:23:27.320 But nothing the CIA pulled off comes even close to what their successor began doing.
00:23:36.540 Who was the successor to the CIA covert ops?
00:23:43.100 Well, it was the United States government.
00:23:46.560 That includes the CIA.
00:23:48.140 Along with NGOs, trade unions, and people like George Soros.
00:23:53.780 Color revolutions.
00:23:54.980 The first one that was really successful was the Middle East, the Arab Spring, right?
00:24:03.160 I told you the Arab Spring was, it had its roots in communists, the European Spring,
00:24:10.780 back after the Communist Manifesto was written.
00:24:14.040 They tried to overthrow all of Europe, and it was called the European Spring.
00:24:17.480 How could this just peaceful movement just suddenly have the roots in revolutionary Marxism?
00:24:25.560 Well, color revolutions, Middle East, then Latin America, and Eastern Europe, Ukraine is one of them. 0.58
00:24:32.100 And here's what they do.
00:24:33.540 The United States, so they can keep their distance, goes through NGOs and trade unions.
00:24:38.560 They train and mobilize street movements.
00:24:42.840 Kind of like, let's see if I can think of a street movement that seems like it wasn't actually real.
00:24:50.940 BLM. 0.71
00:24:52.120 Or the Palestinian street movements.
00:24:56.200 By the way, as we've shown you, funded by these same kind of people.
00:25:00.300 So we showed you all of the evidence on a color revolution and how it was done.
00:25:09.500 And they did it all out in the open, and they even bragged about it.
00:25:13.580 I showed you the people and the organizations at the top of the color revolution sphere.
00:25:17.880 I also showed you that some of these people, NGOs, trade unions, are now active here in the United States.
00:25:25.520 And they seem to pop up every four years.
00:25:28.520 Totally coincidentally, their money and their actions usually come at a time of massive civil unrest right before an election.
00:25:38.860 Now, there's usually some kind of, you know, government element at the top.
00:25:44.120 Could be the CIA.
00:25:44.980 Most likely, it's the State Department and USAID.
00:25:48.860 But ultimately, it's the office of the president.
00:25:52.200 So we did a chalkboard on this.
00:25:54.080 We showed that that has to happen.
00:25:56.180 You have to have those in the government that are wanting to overthrow another government.
00:26:00.900 Then the operation is privatized to give it distance from the government.
00:26:05.040 This is where the NGOs, like the National Endowment for Democracy, come in.
00:26:10.860 The NED is composed of four different entities.
00:26:13.840 The National Democratic Institute, the International Republican Institute, the American Center for International Labor Solidarity, and the Center for International Private Enterprise.
00:26:25.020 You see what's happening?
00:26:26.220 You have both sides, so it looks fair.
00:26:28.440 Republican and Democrat.
00:26:30.220 Plus, you have labor and private enterprise.
00:26:35.060 Everybody coming together.
00:26:37.420 So this is a bipartisan kind of cover story.
00:26:44.100 Next, in the food chain, you have to have the multi-billion dollar financiers and their organizations that partner in the entire operation.
00:26:51.980 This is where George Soros comes in, the Open Society Foundation, the Tides Foundation.
00:26:57.920 And then there are the people that spread the message, demonstrate in the streets, and the media to report what the government wants you to report, wants them to report, to the masses.
00:27:10.680 This is the blueprint.
00:27:13.200 We've done it over and over and over again.
00:27:15.540 And I make the case that these same people are doing it here in America.
00:27:22.880 So why is the blaze?
00:27:24.800 Why am I on this list?
00:27:26.280 I'm on this list because I believe I'm telling you exactly what's happening.
00:27:30.480 We have a color revolution happening within our own government, within the NGOs and George Soros and all those people.
00:27:37.020 This is what they're doing.
00:27:39.820 And there's a possibility this time they succeed because you have to have an, quote, illegitimate president.
00:27:47.660 You have to have street movements that are not only saying that it's illegitimate.
00:27:53.200 You also have the media saying it's illegitimate.
00:27:57.220 And it doesn't work if Donald Trump is the one saying he stole the election.
00:28:01.440 It has to be their side saying the election was stolen.
00:28:07.020 Now, let me go back to the outlet and who these people are, the ones that put this mis-dis-and-dangerous information out.
00:28:21.100 You'll be surprised to hear that there's some of the same exact connections to color revolution.
00:28:30.640 You're listening to the best of Glenn Beck.
00:28:33.400 Need a little more?
00:28:34.560 Check out the full show podcast.
00:28:37.020 Well, it's quite a day.
00:28:40.240 In Wilmington, Delaware, a federal jury has convicted Hunter Biden of federal gun charges.
00:28:48.140 Historic first for the offspring of a sitting president.
00:28:53.020 His trial had his ex-wife and his sister-in-law talking about his drug use.
00:29:00.260 He faces up now to 25 years in prison.
00:29:03.160 He has not been sentenced yet.
00:29:04.620 So that's what he faces up to 25 years for three charges lying on a federal screening form about his drug use.
00:29:13.060 That is I mean, that is I think it even says on the form is a federal crime of like 25 years in prison.
00:29:20.420 You don't lie when you're buying a gun.
00:29:24.240 Don't do it.
00:29:25.320 Then lying to a gun dealer and possessing the gun, although first-time nonviolent offenders typically get shorter sentences.
00:29:32.440 They're going to give him his sentence here soon.
00:29:39.720 Yeah, about three weeks.
00:29:40.720 They expect this to be three to four weeks.
00:29:43.100 And now that sentence is, you know, one of those situations that, you know, depends on how long it is.
00:29:50.200 You're right, first-time violent, nonviolent offenders.
00:29:52.660 Usually the term isn't too, too long.
00:29:55.920 If it's anything longer than, let's say, five or six months, you would assume, despite his denials, that Joe Biden will pardon him the second the election's over.
00:30:05.180 Oh, of course he will.
00:30:05.900 Is that your expectation?
00:30:07.720 Yes, of course he will.
00:30:09.080 Yeah, I can't imagine he wouldn't.
00:30:11.700 He's been, you know, getting his kid in and out of trouble for the past 30 years.
00:30:16.560 Yeah.
00:30:16.820 Why would he change his, you know, his parental habits?
00:30:22.100 Yeah.
00:30:22.680 New York Times is reporting that Hunter Biden's team was feeling, they say, bullish about a non-guilty verdict before it was delivered.
00:30:30.460 So this was a surprise.
00:30:32.440 Yeah.
00:30:34.140 One of the interesting reactions to this, Glenn, I'd love to get your take on this, is now the left saying,
00:30:40.920 well, I guess we won't be seeing anything about a rigged jury system anymore today, will we?
00:30:50.380 Obviously referring to the Trump case when people were saying the system was rigged.
00:30:55.740 Although, I don't know, was that your take on that?
00:30:57.800 Do you think the system was rigged against, with the Donald Trump verdict?
00:31:00.900 No, well, first of all, no, first of all, I would have said the system was rigged when they came, when the Justice Department, you know, colluded with the White House.
00:31:10.120 And came up with some bogus, you know, bogus plea deal that nobody in the world would have ever gotten.
00:31:19.400 This is, now, there's no sentence, it says up to 25 years.
00:31:23.280 There's no sentence, so we don't know, you know.
00:31:26.800 But it's, this is normal.
00:31:29.820 This is the way it works, usually.
00:31:31.860 It just usually happens to people much, much faster than this.
00:31:36.520 And when it, when Donald Trump was at trial, we weren't saying the system was corrupt.
00:31:43.560 We were saying the system in New York City and Washington, D.C. is corrupt.
00:31:48.940 Because, just because of the voter base, you can't get a fair trial if you're Donald Trump.
00:31:54.940 But that doesn't mean the whole thing is corrupt.
00:31:57.920 You know, my point is, you have to play ball the way the people in power in New York want you to play ball.
00:32:05.480 That's corrupt.
00:32:07.660 You know, I think, generally, we get it right.
00:32:12.840 I think often that happens.
00:32:14.280 I still think we have the best system out there, even though there are massive problems with it.
00:32:18.220 And, specifically, in this case, when it comes to Donald Trump, and that, like, I actually have legitimate hope that the system, the legal system, gets the Trump verdict right, eventually.
00:32:30.860 Right?
00:32:31.100 Like, I don't, I think there's a good chance it gets overturned on appeal.
00:32:35.140 The problem with that, though, is that the timeline of the legal system and our political system are not working together very well, unless you happen to be a Democrat.
00:32:46.580 And that, of course, is intentional.
00:32:48.700 But, you know, like, I do think that eventually the court system will probably suss this out.
00:32:54.580 And I'm not at all surprised that, you know, Hunter Biden is guilty in this case.
00:33:00.160 It was pretty blatant.
00:33:01.220 But, like, that is overlooking what you just brought up, Glenn, in that they tried to completely brush this under the rug.
00:33:08.880 Like, I mean, the political system tried to get involved in this multiple times to make sure this didn't occur.
00:33:15.740 They got caught.
00:33:16.360 And so now we have a jury who actually does come to the right conclusion here.
00:33:20.660 Obviously, he was guilty of this.
00:33:24.140 So, yeah, there's no, there's, you know, they weren't saying you can't bring up this person to prove that he was innocent.
00:33:33.640 This was his gun that is his signature on the paper where he lied.
00:33:40.160 Okay, that's a huge penalty.
00:33:42.660 Then, when his sister-in-law lover was found that, you know, found that his gun was in the glove box, she went and took it in a bag that had cocaine powder in it, threw it into a garbage can behind a supermarket.
00:34:03.820 She should have been charged, quite honestly, as well, I think.
00:34:07.380 But she took the gun and she threw it into a garbage can because she was afraid their kids might find it.
00:34:13.700 Well, so you're going to let some other somebody else's kids find the gun?
00:34:17.980 You know, there's no question that this is exactly what happened.
00:34:27.120 And you didn't have to make up laws to say or skirt around holes, you know, sections of the law to get this.
00:34:36.140 You're just enforcing the law.
00:34:38.260 What's ironic about this is dad's such the big anti-gun, you know, throw the book at him forever if they've, you know, they've ever had a cap gun in their life.
00:34:50.100 And he's going to end up, I truly believe he's going to end up pardoning him.
00:34:54.160 I think he will as well.
00:34:56.200 Of course, you know, these penalties are for thee, not for me.
00:34:59.800 And so all of these hardcore, I'm Mr. Tough anti-gun guy, this is the exact type of stuff that Joe Biden was pushing for larger penalties for these type of actions.
00:35:11.000 Now, I think there is the best defense for Hunter Biden, which they didn't really get into in this particular trial.
00:35:16.180 And it will come it will probably come up on appeal is a Second Amendment defense.
00:35:19.840 I don't know that it's a winning defense, but I think there is a good argument that the question itself is not properly represented in our histories and traditions.
00:35:30.600 Whether you're an alcoholic or a drug addict and you can't have a gun if you are.
00:35:34.920 Right. Like, you know, if you go back and look at the early machinations of that, there's very much in our histories and traditions.
00:35:43.740 Like, for example, you go into a bar, they take your gun as you go into a bar, they give it back to you when you leave.
00:35:49.060 Right. Like that type of stuff was, you know, common going back to the, you know, when guns first were being carried.
00:35:55.220 Right. Yeah.
00:35:55.500 Right. But typically it wasn't it's not one of those things where they would do the same thing.
00:36:00.420 If you were an alcoholic, you'd never get a gun even when you were sober. Right.
00:36:04.700 And so the. Yeah, I think you could make a really strong case for that.
00:36:09.660 Yeah. And saying that, you know, I'm a I'm a recovering alcoholic. Should I own a gun?
00:36:15.900 You know, it's the it's the practicing. Are you using drugs? Are you using alcohol?
00:36:23.160 Well, you we could argue about that. And there there might be a case to do it.
00:36:28.920 However, the left would not be for that. The left would be for for all alcoholics, no matter in recovery or not, shouldn't own a gun.
00:36:36.660 And all teetoters as well. And all teetoters. Yeah. But but that's that is not what this case is built on.
00:36:44.080 This case is built on you lied on this federal form. You cannot lie. Everybody knows that.
00:36:54.900 Everybody knows that. And it's true. And it's one of those things that I find this case to be the least interesting part of the Hunter Biden saga.
00:37:03.820 In that, oh, this is I guess it might not even be a constitutional question. Like, I don't think there's he didn't shoot anybody like there's a lot.
00:37:12.720 I mean, he should have he should be this. The law should apply to him like they apply to everyone else.
00:37:17.640 But like to much more interesting, not more is the tax stuff, the financial stuff and the stuff that ties into international business dealings that seemingly involve many of his family members, including maybe his dad.
00:37:28.840 I mean, certainly his dad, in my view, but legally, we don't have that proved yet.
00:37:33.580 But can I ask you one other question? This came up while you were gone, Glenn.
00:37:37.160 And I've been meaning to ask you about this every second since we talked about the story.
00:37:43.380 I've never had sex with Hunter Biden.
00:37:45.880 Oh, OK. Oh, OK. We cleared it up.
00:37:47.360 No, this is a story that came out and I was Pat and I talked about it last week and we both said on the air,
00:37:55.380 the only person that we know that can possibly answer this question is Glenn Beck.
00:38:00.340 The story is from The New York Times and it's painted as this like sob story about how we're so mean to Hunter Biden.
00:38:08.400 Right. Like that's the tone of the story.
00:38:10.180 The headline is Hunter Biden's paintings, not quite the refuge he sought.
00:38:16.080 The president's son started selling his artwork years ago, drawing potential ethics concerns that were discussed in congressional testimony this year.
00:38:22.780 And it goes through a very long feature about his incredible painting, but it gets into details on the finances that I have never seen before.
00:38:32.660 And if you remember, they were talking about these paintings going for five hundred thousand dollars a pop.
00:38:38.160 Correct.
00:38:38.880 In testimony that came out, they found that actually the most money he made was eighty five thousand for any of these paintings.
00:38:45.620 OK, which they they hilariously say is not common for a novice painter.
00:38:52.660 Really, it's not common for a novice painter to make five hundred or eighty five thousand dollars for a painting.
00:38:57.660 Right.
00:38:58.280 But they go through the details here.
00:39:00.880 Right.
00:39:01.540 All right.
00:39:02.240 And they say all in all, the gallery sold about one point five million dollars worth of his art.
00:39:07.360 OK.
00:39:09.660 Just thrown in there with no crinkled eyebrows at all from The New York Times is Mr.
00:39:15.520 Biden's earnings proved more modest than the early hype had suggested.
00:39:19.660 He reported one hundred and thirty thousand nine hundred and eighty four dollars in gross income from art sales during the first two tax years.
00:39:27.200 He was represented by the gallery.
00:39:29.240 They just go on as if that's nothing.
00:39:30.840 But is this the normal arrangement?
00:39:34.320 One point five million dollars in art sales only nets one hundred and thirty thousand to the artist.
00:39:40.500 He's getting eight percent of the sales.
00:39:44.200 Is that even possible?
00:39:46.500 No, no.
00:39:47.380 If you are if you are bringing something to the table, which he is, he's bringing fame.
00:39:53.620 He's bringing people will come to the art show just to see him.
00:39:57.860 You can negotiate for a better rate because I was a new artist.
00:40:05.020 I negotiated with my gallery 50 percent.
00:40:10.040 They take 50.
00:40:10.860 I take 50 because they're doing work.
00:40:12.900 I'm doing work, whatever.
00:40:16.440 And if you're a new artist, you would do that.
00:40:20.640 He's a new artist.
00:40:22.480 And this guy is bringing in a lot to the table.
00:40:26.460 Well, Hunter is he's bringing not only the art, but he's bringing I'm the president's son and I'm in the newspaper all the time.
00:40:34.620 So people are coming into this guy's gallery.
00:40:38.460 However, you know, it might be shady.
00:40:42.800 You know, you're I don't you know, I don't know if this was somebody who knew Hunter, Hunter Biden, who he did and knew that he was on the up and up and everything else.
00:40:56.520 He should not get eight percent.
00:40:58.220 It would be more likely that he would get 45, 55 percent.
00:41:04.300 Yeah, like I could somewhere in that area getting a really good deal with a gallery because you also are bringing like, you know, some level of notoriety.
00:41:11.140 Right.
00:41:11.760 And you're not just like, right.
00:41:12.840 But like and he would have a similar deal.
00:41:14.340 But I didn't want it.
00:41:14.940 Even if he got half of of what you got, it would be much, much more than than what's reported here in the New York Times.
00:41:21.380 No, this is this.
00:41:22.260 That's ridiculous.
00:41:23.660 That's ridiculous.
00:41:24.540 Ridiculous.
00:41:24.960 Eight percent is ridiculous.
00:41:27.140 He obviously, if that's the real deal, he obviously made it while smoking crack.
00:41:34.800 I mean, honestly, that's ridiculous.
