00:00:00.000 All right, man, there's some crazy stuff. I talked to you about Dr. Frankenstein. I'm sorry, Dr. Fauci today and his diary.
00:00:07.860 Bring out the monster. Oh, the monster is him. And he's also the doctor that created it.
00:00:13.460 It's going to be an interesting week with Dr. Fauci.
00:00:16.380 Also, I responded to a letter from an insider who said why my daughter loves Donald Trump.
00:00:24.100 She asked me, how come he's not doing anything? I can't afford gas. I can't afford groceries. I can't afford a house.
00:00:29.100 Why is he not doing something? And so I explained that in hour two. We're going to give you a piece of that answer about the housing bill. They just passed the housing bill. President didn't sign it, but it became law anyway. He doesn't need a signature if he just lets it die on his desk. So it's law now.
00:00:47.140 What did it do? What did it do? And it's the first part of an ongoing series that I will be talking about, about what's actually behind the curtain, okay? And a conversation that you should have with your kids. I don't care if they're eight or if they're 80, they're going to be facing socialism.
00:01:08.440 So I really geared this for somebody in high school or in college.
00:01:13.280 Talk to them, like Socrates, about socialism.
00:01:17.160 I give you the questions, and I want you to have this conversation with your kids this week,
00:01:21.080 and then call me and tell me what happened.
00:01:23.420 That's all on today's podcast. Here it is.
00:01:26.900 Turning 65 feels like you've been dropped into a constant stream of mailers and calls and ads
00:01:32.100 telling you something different about Medicare, and most of it just makes things more confusing.
00:01:36.540 But because this is not a small decision, it's your health care, you need to know you can see the right doctors,
00:01:42.240 you need to get the care that you have to have, and not pay for a plan that doesn't fit your life.
00:01:47.880 This is where Chapter comes in.
00:01:50.000 They don't just hand you options, they look at your doctors, your prescriptions, your needs,
00:01:54.100 and they help you find a plan that actually works for you.
00:01:57.440 Over the last year, they have helped people in this audience save $1.5 million just by finding better-fitting plans.
00:02:04.920 And it's really sometimes not even about the money.
00:02:07.460 I heard about a guy named Mark.
00:02:08.980 Chapter stepped in, helped him get the care he needed.
00:02:11.540 He said they were absolutely spectacular.
00:02:14.180 So give them a call.
00:02:15.000 The call is free.
00:02:16.180 They've helped thousands in my audience, and they can help you too.
00:02:19.380 Dial pound 250.
00:02:20.400 Say the keyword chapter.
00:02:21.360 It's pound 250, keyword chapter.
00:02:25.660 Hello, America.
00:02:26.920 You know we've been fighting every single day.
00:02:28.740 We push back against the lies, the censorship, the nonsense of the mainstream media
00:02:33.460 they're trying to feed you. We work tirelessly to bring you the unfiltered truth because
00:02:38.540 you deserve it. But to keep this fight going, we need you. Right now, would you take a moment and
00:02:43.980 rate and review the Glenn Beck podcast? Give us five stars and lead a comment because every single
00:02:49.140 review helps us break through Big Tech's algorithm to reach more Americans who need to hear the truth.
00:02:54.840 This isn't a podcast. This is a movement and you're part of it, a big part of it. So if you
00:03:00.140 believe in what we're doing you want more people to wake up help us push this podcast to the top
00:03:04.540 rate review share together we'll make a difference and thanks for standing with us now let's get to
00:03:10.560 work you're listening to the best of the glenbeck program okay so two weeks ago the biggest housing
00:03:25.700 bill in decades became law. The president never signed it, let it pass without him.
00:03:30.300 And that way, you know, both parties wanted it. He didn't have to necessarily agree with it,
00:03:35.140 but he didn't veto it. So it became law. Now, here's the good thing. Here's what it does do.
00:03:42.120 If you're a company and you own more than 350 single family homes, you are not allowed to buy
00:03:47.960 any more of America's existing houses. Wall Street is now barred from bidding against your
00:03:54.040 daughter on a starter home. That is really good news. Since February, it's been working. Since
00:04:01.440 February, the number of institutionally owned homes listed for sale has more than doubled.
00:04:07.700 Big institutional landlords are all net sellers this year. That's good. That will bring down the
00:04:15.680 price of housing. But now let's read the rest of the bill. And this is the part that no one
00:04:22.460 explains to you and i'm working on a show that will go into great detail but it's 90 minutes
00:04:28.440 um and it's it's pretty complex but it's stuff that i'm just learning about now and honestly
00:04:36.940 i told jason last night as i was did you get a chance to read any of it last night i told jason
00:04:42.120 last night i said read it it's not this but it feels like we're on the road of something that
00:04:47.400 gets people killed for exposing because it exposes the real game. Okay, so let me go back
00:04:55.140 to this housing bill. There is an exception for build to rent. So if a company builds a
00:05:03.840 neighborhood of houses designed as rentals from the foundation up, it can own every last one of
00:05:09.000 them. So American Homes for Rent now expects every dollar of its growth this year to come
00:05:16.260 from new construction.
00:05:18.960 The money didn't leave the landlord business.
00:05:22.180 It walked through a door that Congress left open,
00:05:24.820 and it only took about 10 days.
00:05:27.400 Now, we've been here before,
00:05:29.260 and the best example in American history is a brick.
00:05:35.320 The Volstead Act.
00:05:36.760 Do you know what that is?
00:05:37.620 January 1920.
00:05:38.760 Do you remember what the Volstead Act was?
00:05:40.860 It made it a federal crime to manufacture,
00:05:43.680 sell, or transport alcohol.
00:05:45.900 Okay?
00:05:46.260 but it had a law to leave a door open for the farmer.
00:05:51.200 You can't arrest a man for owning grapes.
00:05:54.420 So it allowed a household to make a small amount
00:05:57.840 of non-intoxicating fruit juice at home.
00:06:02.920 Well, overnight, wine grapes were worthless.
00:06:06.540 Napa was finished.
00:06:08.940 Except somebody in California read that sentence
00:06:11.560 about fruit juice and had an idea.
00:06:14.060 Now, listen to this.
00:06:14.860 I did not know this about history.
00:06:17.260 He took some wine grapes, skin, stems, pulp, all of them,
00:06:20.340 dried them out and pressed them into a block the size of a pound of butter.
00:06:25.560 It was a grape brick, perfectly legal.
00:06:29.120 It's juice.
00:06:30.620 And on the package, printed in red, was a warning label.
00:06:36.080 Do not dissolve this brick in a gallon of water.
00:06:39.480 Do not add yeast.
00:06:40.900 and do not leave it in a dark cupboard for 21 days
00:06:44.960 because it will turn into wine.
00:06:48.280 See what happened?
00:06:49.840 The warning was a recipe.
00:06:52.200 Now everybody who wanted wine could buy that brick
00:06:55.300 and the recipe was in the warning label.
00:06:58.580 Before Prohibition, a ton of grape concentrate
00:07:01.180 sold for $9.50.
00:07:03.440 By 1924, that brick was fetching $375.
00:07:10.900 California vineyard acreage went up
00:07:16.020 How? How is that happening?
00:07:18.620 The federal government outlawed wine
00:07:20.840 But it accidentally made grape farming the best business in the state
00:07:26.200 Prohibition did not stop Americans from drinking
00:07:30.180 It moved the profit from the winery to the cupboard
00:07:33.880 Now, the anger in this country is earned
00:07:39.300 The living standards for middle class have gone flat while wealth at the top keeps compounding.
00:07:45.680 People know something's rigged, and they're right.
00:07:49.800 And I've been saying this for a while.
00:07:51.800 Republicans, you better get your ass in gear because the Democratic Socialists, they have an answer for who rigged it.
00:07:58.300 Billionaires.
00:07:59.720 But that's not the rig.
00:08:02.400 Let me show you the rig.
00:08:06.520 Let's go back to housing.
00:08:07.740 Let me picture in your head for a minute a highway, two lanes, same direction, same destination on this highway.
00:08:15.580 You're in the right lane, and that's the lane for money you earn by working.
00:08:21.480 And there's a toll booth every single mile.
00:08:24.020 You don't even stop.
00:08:24.980 It just comes out of your account before you ever feel it.
00:08:27.440 The federal, state, Social Security, Medicare, all that, mile after mile after mile, every time you drive your car, it just racks it up.
00:08:35.180 The left lane is for money that comes from owning things.
00:08:40.740 There are no booths in that lane.
00:08:43.000 You only pay when you exit.
00:08:46.000 So the man in the left lane, his thing is don't ever exit.
00:08:52.020 His money grows year after year after year, and nobody touches it because he hasn't sold anything.
00:08:58.040 And when he needs the cash, he still doesn't exit.
00:09:01.800 he goes to a bank and borrows against the car whatever he has that he has you know he's stored
00:09:08.980 up and he's purchased he goes and says to the bank here i've got this house or i have this car
00:09:14.920 i have whatever give me a loan against that well a loan is an income so there's no toll to that loan
00:09:21.940 so he's spending real dollars at full value but he's not paying any tax
00:09:27.780 then he dies when his children take the wheel the odometer resets to zero 40 years of driving and
00:09:36.900 nobody has ever paid a toll on it not him not them ever same highway one lane metered by the mile
00:09:44.300 and the other free if you're patient now go to a home auction and watch two bidders on the same
00:09:52.000 house, a family and a company, the same house, same price. May the best offer win. Who's going
00:09:59.480 to win? The company is. Why? Why are they willing to pay so much more? Because this is what everybody
00:10:05.940 was saying. They're coming in and they're buying all of these houses way above market price. How
00:10:11.060 are they making any money? The auction was never against two bidders. One of them has a silent
00:10:17.800 partner. The company writes a check for a new roof and the partner covers a piece of it, a new
00:10:24.960 furnace, a piece of it, the insurance, the property manager, the interest on the loan,
00:10:31.180 a piece of it. A piece of all of that is paid for by the partner. And when the company sells
00:10:37.120 and buys another house, the partner tells the tax man to wait. You don't get any of that.
00:10:43.680 The family doesn't get any of that.
00:10:45.300 New roof comes out of your pocket every dollar.
00:10:48.260 When you sell, you have to settle up.
00:10:50.700 One of them is bidding with after-tax money.
00:10:54.220 The other is spending more than he brought.
00:10:59.020 He's not paying taxes on anything.
00:11:02.320 The company wins every time, every single time.
00:11:04.660 And the starter home disappears.
00:11:06.880 And the people who are doing this, they're not evil.
00:11:09.260 All they're doing is arithmetic.
00:11:10.780 now that's not a moral failure of the buyer it's a design feature of the tax code you remember in
00:11:20.040 2016 when hillary clinton accused donald trump of paying little or nothing in federal income tax and
00:11:25.500 he said that makes me smart she didn't have an answer because there isn't one the rules he used
00:11:32.460 were the rules her donor and her use every day so the left says wealth tax tax the gains before
00:11:39.100 anybody sells anything. Okay. Here's what this means at your kitchen table. Zillow says your
00:11:45.940 house went up $8,000 this year. You didn't sell it. You didn't get eight or $80,000, however much
00:11:54.120 it went up. You have a house with the same leak in the same corner of the roof. And now the bill
00:11:59.800 arrives and you have to find real money to pay the tax on imaginary money that you are supposedly
00:12:05.160 making but you didn't make so it's a second toll booth on the highway where that where that one
00:12:11.800 already had a problem and the other lane doesn't have that problem and the right says throw them
00:12:18.580 out throw them out 1994 we threw them out republicans took congress for the first time in 40
00:12:26.280 years in 2010 the tea party threw the democrats out again 2016 populists running against both
00:12:32.000 parties 2020 out they go different waves different parties different promises yet our debt and our
00:12:38.460 problems keep growing why so i want you to see how this relates to the the guy who said my daughter
00:12:44.780 is in her 20s she works she's trying to find an apartment she buying food and gas and she's like
00:12:51.000 why is donald trump spending all of this time overseas doing all these other things when you
00:12:57.300 know, the economy is on fire. Okay. Before I get fully to that, I want you just to hear this
00:13:03.760 analogy. Imagine the register at your store. You run a store and it comes up $200 short at close.
00:13:12.480 Well, you fire the cashier, right? You hire somebody new. Then the next month, it's $200
00:13:17.140 short. You fire that one. Why is everybody stealing? A third, a fourth, a fifth, everyone,
00:13:22.840 a different person. They're all stealing from you. But at some point, you stop hiring and you
00:13:28.440 look at the register, okay? We're on our fifth cashier. Has anybody looked at the register?
00:13:36.340 No one in this story is behaving badly. The wage earner works because the code rewards work.
00:13:43.720 The wealthy man holds on because the code rewards him for holding. The politicians promise that,
00:13:51.680 we'll get them. We're going to get the rich. We're going to get the rich, but they never
00:13:56.300 seem to get the rich. This problem never seems to go away. We keep having it, and the benefit
00:14:01.920 is immediate to everybody except you. Water isn't malicious. It goes downhill. My father used to
00:14:11.520 teach this to me all the time. It goes downhill. Your basement floods every spring. You don't
00:14:16.340 convene a hearing about the water. You go outside and you look at the grade of the yard. That's the
00:14:23.060 fix. Not new people in the same seats, new rules that bind whoever sits in those seats.
00:14:31.340 Switzerland put a debt break in its constitution. Chile has a fiscal rule that has survived
00:14:36.960 governments on the left and the right. Our own states live under balanced budget requirements.
00:14:41.780 None of them got there by electing better people.
00:14:44.380 They got there by binding the people they elected.
00:14:49.220 So a rule is only as strong as the willingness to keep it.
00:14:53.800 And every one of those countries has suspended its rule in an emergency.
00:14:57.640 Sooner or later, everything is an emergency.
00:14:59.680 True.
00:15:00.240 But a lock on the liquor cabinet was never going to stop a determined man.
00:15:05.660 What it does is make him go get the key in front of his wife.
00:15:10.400 There's no lock.
00:15:11.380 There's no key.
00:15:13.220 We're the wife going, what's happening here?
00:15:17.460 Two weeks ago, Congress printed a very stern warning label on the side of the American housing market.
00:15:24.220 And somewhere in a conference room this morning, somebody is looking at that bill and they're reading it as a recipe.
00:15:31.620 Wait a minute.
00:15:32.560 They just gave us a recipe on how we can legally make all this money.
00:15:37.620 And so nothing's going to change.
00:15:41.380 because the system is flawed, and nobody wants to take on the system.
00:15:47.960 No one will actually talk about the system,
00:15:50.780 and that's what I want to talk to you about here in the next 30 days or so.
00:15:54.720 I want to talk to you about how this system is rigged,
00:15:58.400 but not in the way you think it is, not in the way the socialists think it is,
00:16:02.860 and if we actually want to make a difference, we have to take on that system.
00:16:07.400 Now, let me get back to what the insider said.
00:16:13.380 The insider said, I want to read it exactly, that my daughter, she's 20, and she's living out on her own, pays her own rent, and she likes the president.
00:16:23.100 She voted for the president, but she's just asked me, why does the president only seem to care about Iran when I can barely afford gas?
00:16:31.100 this is the critical thing that no one is talking about in the media we have talked about this but
00:16:41.520 let me give you another analogy for this think about your house you're standing in water because
00:16:47.960 a pipe has burst so you patch it with tape the water stops everybody claps then the tape dries
00:16:54.120 out and the basement floods again. That was the first term. What did he do? The basement was
00:17:01.740 flooding. We needed jobs. We needed the economy turning around. So he knows the levers to push
00:17:09.760 and pull. He can take out the tape and he can wrap the pipes and he can get water out of the
00:17:14.360 basement so it's dry. But soon as he left, that tape popped open and we're back into a worse
00:17:21.580 situation because somebody wants that tape off okay now here's the rule that you can take
00:17:27.220 to the bank and this is the problem with congress right now anything one man can do with a pen
00:17:33.220 another man can undo with a pen it has to be codified so watch what he's doing now because
00:17:40.720 he can't get congress to do anything right you've seen congress the bill well we did the big
00:17:46.380 beautiful bill. Yeah, he ought to practically break your arms. For some reason, you won't do
00:17:52.400 things like the Save America Act. So he knows he can't get things done through Congress. He has to
00:18:00.460 fix the system. So how are you going to fix the pipe? How are you going to make sure that you're
00:18:07.100 not putting tape there? Because somebody can take the tape off. You have to re-plumb the entire house.
00:18:16.380 When I give you the rest of this analogy, I think you're going to see exactly what's happening and why we're not seeing the dramatic change in the economy that we had in the first term.
00:18:31.220 First, so much damage was done because of COVID and because of Biden that the economy cannot bounce back as fast as it can.
00:18:42.040 but he's also not trying to do that because that's tape he has to spend his first two years
00:18:51.020 re-plumbing the entire house keeping yourself and your family safe means being prepared for
00:18:58.000 situations that can you know put you or them in danger it means being prepared for all the
00:19:02.840 situations you know even those situations where deadly force is not needed in fact it's a real
00:19:08.000 problem there are more of those than you think and if you're a gun owner it's unfortunately easy
00:19:12.840 to think a gun will provide you all the safety it needs but you never pull a gun unless you're
00:19:16.460 prepared to kill somebody and i'm i'm not in all situations you know but they can go bad fast there
00:19:22.940 is a tool for this it's the burner launcher it's a non-lethal alternative to safeguarding your home
00:19:27.520 that will teach somebody a very painful non-lethal lesson it's legal in all 50 states no permits or
00:19:33.320 background checks required, and it can be used by all age groups over 18. My kids carry them
00:19:39.700 in their backpacks. You'll be confident that you are prepared to defend yourself against potential
00:19:44.600 threats. Go to Burna.com slash Glenn. Learn more about it. Try before you buy it at a sportsman's

00:19:55.000 Now back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. And don't forget,
00:19:59.620 Rate us on iTunes.
00:20:02.440 If you don't like Fauci, you're not going to be disappointed.
00:20:09.000 I'm not going to do anything that is going to make you like him.
00:20:13.060 If you do like him, you might be disappointed because he's really, truly an egomaniac monster.
00:20:22.060 There is a story out now.
00:20:25.440 His diary has just been released.
00:20:28.760 And if you read his diary, it's not really the best.
00:20:35.780 Shoot, did I lose that stupid diary?
00:20:38.020 Where is that diary now?
00:20:39.640 Do you have it in front of you?
00:20:41.140 Which one?
00:20:41.660 The diary with the quotes in his diary?
00:20:44.020 Yeah.
00:20:44.580 Okay.
00:20:45.200 Give me some of the quotes of the diary.
00:20:46.480 I just lost it.
00:20:47.960 So on January 26, 2020, Fauci writes in his diary,
00:20:52.240 now we know the market was not the source.
00:20:55.460 So he's talking about the Wuhan wet market where they were cooking up all that amazing bat soup.
00:21:01.760 Yeah.
00:21:02.100 Because it's natural origin, so it started in the animals there and spread from the market.
00:21:07.680 So we were told.
00:21:08.960 Yeah.
00:21:09.280 But this one clearly says, now we know the market was not the source.
00:21:12.580 It was the amplifier.
00:21:15.280 So not exactly what we were hearing in public.
00:21:17.880 The amplifier?
00:21:18.580 Wait a minute.
00:21:18.960 What do you mean the amplifier?
00:21:20.740 So I think what he's talking about there is that's where it just kind of went on steroids and started spreading all over the place.
00:21:25.280 Yeah, because the front door of the lab is right there at the wet market.
00:21:30.460 That's why.
00:21:31.300 Yeah, literally like a football's throw away.
00:21:33.140 You know what kills me is remember when we did this special on this
00:21:35.660 and we showed that they had a lockdown at the laboratory.
00:21:40.400 I think it was in November.
00:21:42.000 And then they went in and they completely redid all of the venting
00:21:46.040 and the duct work and everything.
00:21:47.540 They had a complete emergency cleaning and re-ventilation of that.
00:21:54.440 a month before we saw the first
00:21:56.520 outbreak. And he had doctors
00:21:58.460 that were sick from there.
00:22:00.560 And you know Fauci knew at that point.
00:22:03.060 By December, Fauci knew.
00:22:06.360 Yeah, there's additional stuff
00:22:08.700 just on that entry alone
00:22:10.760 and I'm reading from another
00:22:12.060 summary of this.
00:22:14.600 So privately in his diaries, Fauci was
00:22:16.420 admitting that basically he no longer
00:22:18.660 believed that the wet market was the origin.
00:22:21.020 And you had to be basically an idiot
00:22:22.560 because Wuhan
00:22:23.700 And, you know, Institute of Virology is right there.
00:22:26.420 But a week later...
00:22:27.500 And he knew.
00:22:27.900 He knew all of the things that we proved six months into this.
00:22:32.840 Right.
00:22:33.200 Anyway, go ahead.
00:22:33.820 And anyone that disagreed with natural origin was an idiot and deserves to be shamed, basically.
00:22:39.700 Yes, yes.
00:22:40.000 So a week later, he convenes a call with 12 scientists.
00:22:44.540 You want to know how many of them thought that it was, you know, natural origin spillover from animals?
00:22:52.620 out of those 12 only two only two the rest of them are like i don't do doc it's kind of this
00:23:01.920 is looking fishy here but that is not what we heard the consensus was from all the academic
00:23:07.060 papers was that no this is natural origin you know if you think this is an outbreak yeah gotta
00:23:12.160 be an idiot yeah and it was it was made to look like there were only two in the room that didn't
00:23:18.040 think that remember yeah because we reported it at the time and it was made to look like two
00:23:23.880 walked into that room to disagree with what the other 11 and saying no no no no and it was the
00:23:30.780 consensus but apparently that's not it now again all of this is now according to his own diary
00:23:36.760 this is not speculation on these are the words in his own diary all right what else but also to that
00:23:43.620 why would you be concerned about this not being natural origin why would you be concerned if this
00:23:51.240 could possibly been manipulated in a lab if you're in the united states government with control of
00:23:57.980 all these funds that are going out all over the world to possibly support things like gain-of-function
00:24:02.800 research why would this concern you so much maybe because you were the one releasing some of these
00:24:10.200 funds to places like china maybe maybe that would look bad so when you get into this now we're going
00:24:16.680 to show you some of the things he said because he's an out-of-control egomaniac um when you get
00:24:21.560 into this part understand this is the main thing you have to know about this guy and here's why
00:24:28.660 he he is the wrong kind of he has no humility in him at all and so when we had a law that said you
00:24:37.500 can't do this, he felt he was right. And so he was going to do it anyway. And come hell or high
00:24:45.080 water, he would find a way to do it. And then he covered it all up. So the guy who is literally,
00:24:51.720 I believe, responsible for millions of dead, one guy, and it's Fauci and anyone else that was in
00:25:00.720 on this project with him, but Fauci knew it. And he just felt it was too important to let the law
00:25:07.460 stopped them so he found a way around it now if you think that's bad listen to some of the things
00:25:15.820 that he said in his diary about his fame gosh it's grotesque yeah there i mean if if you kind of if
00:25:23.620 you even just leave out some of his personal phone calls with people like barbara streisand and how
00:25:28.700 he's convincing her to get an mrna vaccine oh and another little anecdote about how he's teaching
00:25:33.460 barbara streisand how to use the alexa device um he's also saying things like this quote one
00:25:39.820 person said that tyra banks was sexy but that i was even more sexy than she was oh my gosh
00:25:45.800 oh my gosh yes you know he should start another 1200 dead this morning but you know they said
00:25:55.220 that tyra banks was sexy but i'm even more but on the bright side the bright side i'm the sexiest
00:26:01.040 man alive I mean it's just it's horrible and following up with that quote I kind of feel like
00:26:08.440 I should say dear diary quote dear diary press still hot and heavy about me multiple stories
00:26:14.400 per day directly or indirectly involving me oh yeah oh my gosh it goes on multiple entries like
00:26:22.540 this where he talks about he talks about and you know I got a siding phone call today they asked
00:26:27.380 me to be on dancing on the star with the stars can you maybe pay attention to the millions that
00:26:35.420 are dying i found some other ones here jason that you know the press doesn't have yet uh death just
00:26:43.900 crossed 70 000 tragic of course but on a lighter note a woman in line in the pharmacy recognized me
00:26:49.180 and started crying not from the virus but because she was meeting me i signed her n95 she said i'll
00:26:56.000 never wash it again uh let's see uh april 9th another 1800 dead today tough huh but the
00:27:06.760 washington post just called me the most trusted man in america i'm thinking about having that
00:27:11.460 embroidered on my lab coat um august 4 another 1200 lives lost overnight devastating but on the
00:27:19.720 upside my wikipedia page just hit a million views in 24 hours i've asked the nih communications team
00:27:26.380 to start tracking fauci mentions per death it seems important for historical records
00:27:33.340 i mean the guy could have written those when you read his diary he could have written those
00:27:38.740 he was that out of touch do we have the in style uh magazine cover it's on my computer now
00:27:44.900 okay well i don't think people can see your computer i tell you what why don't you just
00:27:49.160 come over and lean over his shoulder i think they can bring it up can you bring it up
00:27:54.260 anyway so there's a picture of uh there's a picture of fauci and he is on in style the cover
00:28:03.060 and he's got his his sunglasses on he's sitting by the pool and it's grotesque when you see it
00:28:09.340 is absolutely grotesque and then and now reading these diaries and knowing how infatuated he was
00:28:16.860 with all the attention and fame.
00:28:19.020 The look on his face right there just makes me nauseous.
00:28:22.580 Look at that.
00:28:23.800 I have to tell you, he's coming to Washington
00:28:26.900 to testify in front of Congress.
00:28:29.940 Rand Paul is going to be there.
00:28:31.500 It should be interesting.
00:28:32.800 Now, here's the thing.
00:28:35.080 He can't incriminate himself
00:28:37.400 because he is already pardoned
00:28:40.200 for everything he did in the last 10 years.
00:28:42.540 So there's nothing that they can get him on.
00:28:44.980 And he could go on and say, yeah, five years ago, you know, I was doing X, Y, and Z.
00:28:52.100 I have nothing to do with it now.
00:28:53.680 And there's nothing anybody can do about it.
00:28:56.900 However, my guess is, and I could be wrong, my guess is he's going to plead the fifth.
00:29:03.880 And here's why this is a problem.
00:29:07.260 He can't incriminate himself for past crimes.
00:29:10.760 so if he pleads the fifth that would be covering a new crime and what's going to happen is
00:29:21.000 um Rand Paul is going to ask him all of exactly the same questions that he asked
00:29:28.560 the last time or the last 10 times he testified and Fauci was very specific on how he answered
00:29:35.060 everything. Well, we now have all of the evidence that he was lying, but he's covered because of
00:29:42.420 Joe Biden and the auto pin, um, pardoning him. So what Rand Paul is trying to do is get him to say,
00:29:49.860 is that, do you still stand by that? Yes. Can you tell me, I'm going to ask you the same question.
00:29:56.600 Can you tell me, were you doing any of these things? He would have to answer no. If he answers
00:30:02.320 yes it's a new crime okay or if he answers no and stays considered assistant it's a new crime
00:30:08.820 and so what he's going to say is i think i plead the fifth because he either has to and he's too
00:30:16.000 much of an ego he either has to say no i was lying to you and that he won't get prosecuted for that
00:30:22.560 i was lying to you nope that's not true i don't i don't believe that um he won't go to jail for
00:30:31.080 that however he has too much of an ego to say he was lying and so the only thing his attorneys are
00:30:39.020 going to say to him is then good good just plead the fifth plead the fifth if he pleads the fifth
00:30:45.700 we know he was lying because that's the only reason why you would do it because that's the
00:30:49.700 only new crime i'm curious about the gain of function question that i know senator paul is
00:30:55.800 going to ask him i feel like that would be the easiest one to where you've got a lot of data
00:31:01.140 to back up the fact that this they were funding what looks like game function over there the
00:31:07.140 reason i say looks like because they changed the definition there's so many ways you could
00:31:11.120 weasel out of that right no no no no if you define it the way ran paul has and the way the united
00:31:18.100 states always has but when fauci testified if you remember right the nih went in and changed the
00:31:24.440 definition after his testimony they changed the definition to match what he said so no you know
00:31:32.600 the only game you're playing is the game he set up okay so now i i'm less optimistic than i was
00:31:40.760 before in the insider segment about why well the way you're describing it right there sounds like
00:31:46.480 there are ways that they can be like well based off this definition oh that's what he's going to
00:31:50.200 do because that's what he did towards the end when they were like that's not that's not even
00:31:55.080 the definition that's the official definition i don't know how you define it but that's how we
00:31:59.300 define it and that was the game he played the only chance i think i'd like to have ran paul on
00:32:04.640 because he's been thinking about it um i i think the only way you really get him here is if he
00:32:10.200 perjures himself because that's a new crime but i think he's too smart to perjure himself he would
00:32:18.140 listen to his attorneys uh and plead the fifth but he is so arrogant that's his achilles heel
00:32:24.420 in his arrogance it could be his downfall you're listening to the best of glenn beck
00:32:29.620 need a little more check out the full show podcasts anywhere you download podcasts
00:32:33.940 let me tell you what tim kane said on dsa growth uh and how the democratic socialists
00:32:43.500 don't bother him as they are growing into the Democratic Party. Cut four.
00:32:49.640 Do you think they have a space within your party?
00:32:53.920 I do think the Democratic Party has always been known, and mostly this is good. Sometimes it's
00:33:00.420 not, as a big tent. And so I don't think that somebody says, I'm a DSA candidate. I don't
00:33:05.680 think you should use that to throw them out. Why would you do that? Candidates have to rise and
00:33:10.060 fall on their own merits and so you know whether you're a dsa member or a third way democrat or
00:33:15.720 you know i just call myself a small d democrat people have to uh if this were if this if the
00:33:21.300 question were about communists or nazis would you say the same thing it's not right so if somebody
00:33:29.620 calls themselves a member of the national socialist party um you know we just judge them on their own
00:33:35.200 merits no you wouldn't say that because the national socialists stand for something the
00:33:39.240 democratic socialist of america stand for the destruction of the senate uh the constitution
00:33:45.520 i mean this is in their platform so if you're running on a platform that wants to destroy
00:33:51.180 the free market system uh wants to abolish all prisons wants to abolish the senate uh and the
00:33:59.380 presidency uh and the supreme court no you can't be apart that's not that we have nothing in common
00:34:06.440 Now, you can run that way, and I'm not going to condemn you.
00:34:08.920 It's a free country.
00:34:09.640 You can believe whatever you want.
00:34:10.600 But no, no, no.
00:34:16.240 There are standards.
00:34:18.180 But Hakeem says this.
00:34:20.700 Cut five.
00:34:22.260 The Democratic Party is not a cult of personality.
00:34:26.900 We're a coalition of public servants.
00:34:30.800 Our diversity of thought, perspective, and life experience,
00:34:33.440 experience like what bob brings to the table is a strength not a weakness we are one big tent
00:34:41.580 united by if they are one if they are really truly one big tent how come there is no one
00:34:49.520 allowed to be in the democratic party and run who is pro-life why would you be welcoming people who
00:34:58.840 are anti-DEI, would you be welcoming in your big tent somebody who says, yeah, I'm against
00:35:05.620 DEI, I'm against what Fauci did and what our teachers' unions did closing down the schools?
00:35:14.800 I think that was a mistake, and I can't forgive the teachers' union. Would they be allowed
00:35:19.100 into your party? Most likely not. We've seen them cull everybody over the years. They've
00:35:26.460 narrowed it way down. You have to be in this little deal. But you are welcome if you're against
00:35:31.920 the American system and constitution. That's okay. Not abortion, not anti-DEI, but if you're
00:35:40.340 against the system of America, you're in. See, I'm not sure if I'm, I know I'm preaching to the
00:35:53.080 choir here. But these are the questions that we have to ask other Americans. And I'm not sure
00:35:58.520 anymore Americans can think. I'm not sure Americans can reason anymore. You know, Socrates,
00:36:08.440 the Socratic method is just to ask questions.
00:36:13.960 and
00:36:16.800 you know what he found
00:36:19.580 if you ask questions
00:36:21.640 enough even though they're honest
00:36:23.620 you'll eventually the elites will kill
00:36:25.660 you and that's what happened to him
00:36:27.220 because nobody
00:36:29.740 wants to hear those questions
00:36:30.800 but it says
00:36:33.760 something when you're talking to an individual
00:36:35.840 and especially
00:36:37.640 your son or daughter
00:36:38.720 and you can't have a
00:36:41.460 simple question and say
00:36:43.300 look, I know you think I'm going to try to talk you into Donald Trump or whatever.
00:36:47.720 I'm going to try to make you a conservative.
00:36:49.440 I'm not.
00:36:49.920 I just want to ask you some questions because I've been hearing about socialism from you.
00:36:54.780 And so I want to ask you a few questions.
00:36:57.120 And if you start to get uncomfortable, let's just take a break for a second
00:37:02.200 and just laugh about something, and then we'll come back to it
00:37:06.380 because I'm not trying to convince you anything.
00:37:08.780 I just want to ask you questions.
00:37:11.760 And here's the first one.
00:37:13.300 When you say socialism, do you mean the government pays for, like Denmark, 60% of stuff?
00:37:22.180 Or that the government owns things?
00:37:26.080 Because those are two different countries.
00:37:29.120 So which is it?
00:37:30.360 Is there private property?
00:37:32.480 Or do you want just bigger safety nets?
00:37:35.760 Question number one.
00:37:36.480 if it just means the government pays for some things
00:37:43.160 then we've already been a socialist government since 1790 and the argument is over here
00:37:51.000 then we're just we're not saying let's get rid of everything else we're just saying okay we need to
00:37:56.820 argue on taxes and how big that safety net gets is that what you mean by socialism
00:38:05.140 you say the system is rigged
00:38:09.760 I have
00:38:11.800 my own opinions because I think it is rigged
00:38:13.780 but I want to know from you
00:38:15.800 rigged by whom
00:38:17.660 who are you handing
00:38:21.280 the rig to
00:38:23.860 who is rigging it
00:38:25.840 and who is going
00:38:27.820 to unrig it
00:38:28.860 how does that work
00:38:30.960 you say you're for socialism okay what does a loaf of bread cost today
00:38:43.260 in the ballpark they don't need an exact figure it's not a i'm not trying to embarrass you you
00:38:49.000 don't even know the price of bread i'm trying what is what is a loaf of bread cost today or
00:38:53.080 anything what's it cost now tell me the name of the person who decided that price who who is
00:39:00.340 deciding the price of bread? Anyone. One name. Corporation. Anybody.
00:39:09.120 So if no one set the global price of bread, how did it get set?
00:39:15.920 And how did it stay roughly right every day in every store for your entire life?
00:39:24.300 Do you know what's causing the price of bread to go up? Have you considered inflation? What is
00:39:29.840 inflation. Can you name one country where the state took ownership of the means of production
00:39:39.740 and the poor got richer? And I'm not trying to be cute. I want an example. And I'll take the
00:39:46.920 best one you got. But where is the place where the poor got richer? And let's look into that.
00:39:53.720 Now, when the border opens, any border, any decade, in this country, which direction do people run?
00:40:06.940 Who built the wall and which way were the guns pointed?
00:40:14.940 I know things are bad. They are. And I'm not denying that. They are.
00:40:19.200 But I want to see if we have any perspective.
00:40:23.800 Would you rather be poor today or rich in 1900?
00:40:29.940 By the way, one of you has antibiotics, the other one doesn't.
00:40:35.540 Would you rather be poor here or poor in Africa?
00:40:44.860 If you and I both make an agreement, we both make a trade.
00:40:48.200 I walk into your store and I make a trade, and we both walk away happy, who got hurt?
00:40:59.660 Someone has to decide what your work is worth.
00:41:04.660 Do you want it to be you and the person paying you, or a third man with an army who's never met either of you?
00:41:18.200 You know, one example that I learned as I was getting ready for today's show and trying to find examples of the free market.
00:41:31.480 You know, when Mao came into China, all these people starved and they were starving on the farm.
00:41:35.640 And it was because he just told them to do things that farmers just, they know, they know that won't work.
00:41:42.260 So 18 farmers in a starving commune met at night in China, and they divided the collective land into family plots.
00:41:54.080 Every household kept whatever it grew past the state quota.
00:41:58.600 So they all had to have a quota, but it was not working with a commune.
00:42:05.460 They were not making even the state quota.
00:42:07.940 They were starving.
00:42:09.260 So they got together at night and they said, let's divide this up.
00:42:12.600 We're going to keep it to ourselves.
00:42:14.520 But you keep your plot is this.
00:42:17.740 My plot is this.
00:42:18.940 My plot, your plot is this.
00:42:20.260 And divided it up 18 different ways.
00:42:23.000 And then said, you keep whatever you grow on that land.
00:42:27.120 You have to hit the state quota.
00:42:28.360 But then you don't share that with anybody other, no other farmer.
00:42:31.520 Okay?
00:42:32.160 You keep it.
00:42:34.740 Most of them couldn't sign their names.
00:42:36.660 So in secret, they pressed their thumbprints into the paper and they added a clause.
00:42:44.500 If any of us is executed for this, the rest will raise his children until they're 18.
00:42:50.860 Because they expected to die for the crime of private property.
00:42:57.220 So now the harvest comes.
00:42:59.840 Well, it is so far above anything the commune had ever produced.
00:43:04.520 It couldn't be hidden.
00:43:05.580 And they expected now China is going to come in and they're going to kill us.
00:43:10.420 They're going to kill us all because we took this as private property.
00:43:18.020 Well, it took a couple of years, but they didn't get what they expected.
00:43:25.260 Instead, the household responsibility system became national policy for China.
00:43:32.960 They still didn't own the land.
00:43:34.620 but it was the largest reduction of poverty in recorded history of the human race that was
00:43:40.320 underway they took land that none of them owned and they said just for our purposes
00:43:46.660 you own this square i own this square whatever i produce i keep whatever you produce what is that
00:43:53.140 that's the free market system you keep what you produce by the way that thumbprint that contract
00:43:59.720 it survives it's now in the national museum of china and we're just putting it up on the screen
00:44:04.500 That's it.
00:44:05.280 These poor farmers that were starving to death
00:44:07.840 decided to risk their lives
00:44:10.120 and say, private property is important.
00:44:17.260 That's not private property in China.
00:44:19.140 They still don't own it.
00:44:20.240 They have a lease, I think, of 10 years.
00:44:22.240 And the state, if any of them misbehave,
00:44:23.840 the state can just take it.
00:44:25.320 So they still have to be loyal to the state
00:44:27.320 and do everything the state says.
00:44:28.520 But they can lease that land,
00:44:31.240 which I guess some people would be fine with.
00:44:33.580 The problem is America was built on private property.
00:44:37.980 We were built on that.
00:44:39.740 And everything, all private property is going away now.
00:44:43.800 We are a lease and rent kind of society.
00:44:47.820 And unfortunately, the housing thing, that housing bill that just went through, is going to encourage more people to rent.
00:44:55.560 Well, then you never own.
00:44:56.980 And if you don't own, you don't actually own an asset that can appreciate.
00:45:01.240 And so you can't get richer.
00:45:02.780 You're always paying just to survive.
00:45:05.080 And that's what's happening in China.
00:45:08.800 Ask your kids these questions
00:45:12.280 and just try to have a rational conversation
00:45:15.280 and listen to them.
00:45:16.520 Don't try to teach them anything.
00:45:18.240 Listen to them.
00:45:19.300 Ask the questions and listen.
00:45:22.700 Again, don't argue.
00:45:25.760 Your goal is to have a rational, reasonable conversation
00:45:30.220 so you can hear where they are and you can hear, can they still think?
00:45:37.940 You can push back and say, have you thought of this?
00:45:42.400 Or when you ask, it's better to base a question on their answer.
00:45:47.220 When you say this, I just want to understand, do you mean X, Y, and Z?
00:45:53.880 Have that conversation with your kids.
00:45:56.960 And then later this week, let's talk about it.
00:45:58.760 Let's have you call in and tell me what happened with that conversation with your kids.
00:46:02.340 Just ask them those questions.
00:46:05.940 Ricky, can we just, can we tweet those out or, and just, I'd like to invite you to have
00:46:10.940 a conversation with your family and then come back later this week and tell me how that went.
