00:00:00.440 Wow. I would say there was some big news today coming out.
00:00:04.960 Yeah. It was a big show. Yeah. A lot of good stuff.
00:00:07.800 Joseph Robinette Biden.
00:00:10.740 Junior. Junior.
00:00:12.960 That's him, right?
00:00:14.500 That 80-year-old guy's a junior.
00:00:17.160 The junior thing does not work as you get older.
00:00:19.560 Come here, junior.
00:00:21.840 So he's declared he's running again.
00:00:25.120 The question is why, Stu? Why?
00:00:27.000 I mean, I think there's an argument that he's trying to clear the field, does not want a Gavin Newsom or somebody else to announce their run.
00:00:34.080 He wants to say, nope, this is me. I want this job. Everyone's saying I might not run. I'm running.
00:00:39.700 Wow, that's a bad decision.
00:00:41.680 All the way around, especially for Democrats.
00:00:44.740 But what do you think of the idea that possibly, you know, they always do what they claim the other side is doing.
00:00:52.400 So what about, you know, kind of just an advanced volley of you're only you're only having these hearings because I'm, you know, running for president in 2024.
00:01:05.500 There's something there, I think, as well.
00:01:07.560 I think that's possible.
00:01:08.400 What about the possibility that he filled it out, but has absolutely no recollection of filling it out?
00:01:18.900 Yes, it does seem like he maybe filled it out in reverse order with Harris being the president.
00:01:23.360 Which is weird.
00:01:24.560 So it is a little weird.
00:01:26.300 I think he really filled it out.
00:01:27.640 He's like, I'm typing my name, President Harris and Biden Vice President.
00:01:34.920 All this and so much more on today's podcast brought to you in part by Goldline.
00:01:41.440 Here's something amazing.
00:01:42.680 Tons of Americans still don't know that it is possible to use your retirement account to acquire precious metals.
00:01:49.060 You'll be saving up for retirement and building a protective wall against inflation and other forms of economic insanity.
00:01:57.360 What are the odds that that would happen?
00:02:00.000 It's a really big deal.
00:02:01.140 You know, if you've been listening to me for a long time and you've noticed a trend that sometimes I call the direction correctly,
00:02:12.260 you might want to think about that when I say, you know, economic collapse.
00:02:18.580 Goldline.
00:02:19.380 Call them now.
00:02:20.520 Do your own homework.
00:02:21.320 It might not be right for you.
00:02:22.680 It is for me and my family.
00:02:24.480 Goldline.

00:02:27.700 866-GOLDLINE.
00:02:28.960 Hey, make sure you tell them that you were listening to my podcast.
00:02:31.900 Give them the code MYB.
00:02:34.160 That's Mind Your Business.
00:02:36.080 They'll give you the Mind Your Business silver bars just as a thank you for calling in.
00:02:40.480 So visit the website, goldline.com or call 866-GOLDLINE.
00:02:43.600 Here it is.
00:02:52.160 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:55.920 All right.
00:03:00.020 So we're talking about semi-fascists, which I don't even know what a semi-fascist is.
00:03:06.920 Is that somebody who's like, I like public partner, public-private partnerships, but I just don't want it with the, you know, the public public.
00:03:17.860 I don't think that's what it is.
00:03:19.300 No, it's not.
00:03:19.620 I think basically the semi is to act as if he didn't mean full fascist, which is what he actually meant.
00:03:26.200 Oh, okay.
00:03:26.660 So he's just acting.
00:03:26.900 Yeah.
00:03:27.180 It's Joe Biden saying Republicans are fascists.
00:03:30.760 Right.
00:03:30.940 Because I guess they disagreed with him, which is interesting.
00:03:33.100 It's a fascinating philosophy.
00:03:34.220 And I'm a little, a little confused because every time we get into a policy argument with people on the left, they don't call us fascists.
00:03:46.100 They call us Wild West libertarians that want no restrictions on anything.
00:03:51.080 Oh, that's right.
00:03:51.900 And we just want a free-for-all.
00:03:55.340 We're social Darwinists.
00:03:57.540 It's just everybody that we want these big companies to be able to take advantage, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:04:02.960 So when we're talking about healthcare, we're like, oh, well, people should be able to go in the free market and choose whichever healthcare they want.
00:04:08.120 Oh, you're just, you want the Wild West.
00:04:11.420 So when you're talking about your philosophy, Glenn Beck.
00:04:15.080 Yes, my philosophy.
00:04:16.820 Can you describe it a little bit?
00:04:18.860 What's your idea of the, what's your conservative utopia?
00:04:22.980 Well, I, I, I mean, it's quite long.
00:04:26.260 Give me a couple of, give me a basic idea.
00:04:28.260 Limited government, right?
00:04:30.340 Declaration of Independence Constitution.
00:04:32.740 Okay.
00:04:33.120 There you go.
00:04:33.680 A government that doesn't do very many things as you describe in those documents.
00:04:37.700 No, it, yeah.
00:04:38.380 It's what our country is supposed to be according to the rules.
00:04:44.880 And maybe you'd summarize that as an experiment in self-governance.
00:04:48.440 Right.
00:04:49.020 I would, I would, yeah, I would say, hey, is there a chance that maybe people can govern themselves without an oppressive government?
00:04:57.960 There you go.
00:04:58.460 Yeah.
00:04:58.580 Okay.
00:04:58.820 So now let's hear what fascism is.
00:05:00.620 This is the textbook definition, political ideologies, their origins and impact.
00:05:05.480 Second edition.
00:05:08.640 Mussolini.
00:05:09.800 You may know him.
00:05:11.160 Kind of a famous figure.
00:05:12.500 He created a totalitarian state.
00:05:14.640 Wait a minute.
00:05:15.340 Indeed.
00:05:16.240 He was, it was he who coined the word.
00:05:19.820 So I don't got it.
00:05:20.800 You'd think of that as almost like an insult.
00:05:22.560 He actually did it intentionally.
00:05:24.780 Ha.
00:05:25.180 Okay.
00:05:25.700 He was not content with political power alone.
00:05:27.840 He believed that the government and ultimately the government's leader should completely control every aspect of human existence.
00:05:36.460 Consequently, like Stalin, Hitler, and Mao, which is weird that they pair those together, communists and fascists.
00:05:43.540 Interesting.
00:05:43.900 Consequently, like Stalin, Hitler, and Mao, he tried to build up the state's power, build up the state's power, extending it into the most private aspects of the citizens' lives. 0.55
00:05:55.820 More from political ideologies, their origins and impacts.
00:06:00.480 Quote, the state controlled and regulated almost every conceivable social, economic, and political activity of its citizens.
00:06:08.280 Through this mechanism, almost every aspect of daily existence was controlled.
00:06:14.500 Jobs.
00:06:16.600 Wages.
00:06:17.740 Are we the ones that are arguing for wage controls?
00:06:20.500 I'm sorry.
00:06:21.740 Fringe benefits.
00:06:22.700 Are we the ones constantly selling every business what they must do with fringe benefits?
00:06:27.480 Is that us?
00:06:27.960 No, I don't think so.
00:06:29.260 Housing.
00:06:30.100 Huh.
00:06:30.320 Are we the ones constantly monitoring everything a little bit?
00:06:32.640 Are we the ones saying you have to change all of your insulation?
00:06:35.380 We have to redo every single building in America?
00:06:39.200 Yeah, but that's for the common good.
00:06:41.140 Retail goods.
00:06:42.640 Recreation.
00:06:43.500 Entertainment.
00:06:44.120 Are we the people saying that we need to kick everybody off of every platform every time they make a joke?
00:06:48.260 You don't like...
00:06:48.700 Are we controlling that?
00:06:49.600 No, that's not us.
00:06:50.820 Education.
00:06:51.600 Are we the ones...
00:06:52.620 Is that us?
00:06:53.280 Are we the ones saying that you need to teach everybody about critical race theory and all these things that are not related to actual education?
00:07:00.660 I'm pretty sure it's not us.
00:07:01.980 They were all part of this elaborate organization.
00:07:04.520 Now, since we mentioned critical race theory, let's think about that for a moment.
00:07:09.800 It's critical.
00:07:10.580 It's critical.
00:07:11.500 It's critical.
00:07:12.040 It's critical race theory.
00:07:12.840 What about the idea that men are men and women are women? 0.60
00:07:16.580 A basic thing that we've all understood for thousands of years.
00:07:19.580 Well, that's science.
00:07:20.700 That was science at one point.
00:07:23.560 Yeah.
00:07:23.960 It's interesting that you mention that because fascists had a particular approach to this exact type of thing.
00:07:31.220 Something that we all understood as real hardcore science, they tended to take a different approach.
00:07:37.960 May I describe it?
00:07:38.940 Yes, please.
00:07:39.600 From the textbook here.
00:07:40.960 You tell me which side this sounds like these days.
00:07:43.660 Okay.
00:07:44.060 All right.
00:07:44.960 Fascism rejects objective science and reason.
00:07:48.100 Objective truth is either a hoax or unimportant because the really important truths defy rational understanding.
00:07:56.160 Those who believe in reason, therefore, are deluding themselves and grasping at a false reality.
00:08:04.480 What is a woman, Glenn? 0.98
00:08:06.800 We don't know.
00:08:07.460 Well, I don't know.
00:08:08.800 I mean, I have no idea how to define it.
00:08:11.440 You know, health care.
00:08:11.940 It doesn't matter.
00:08:13.080 Health care.
00:08:13.720 Health care.
00:08:14.200 Usually helping heal people, right?
00:08:16.360 Sure.
00:08:16.900 But abortion is health care, right? 0.96
00:08:19.540 Sure.
00:08:19.940 Every white person is a racist.
00:08:23.980 Now, it's interesting because you're assigning a negative characteristic to a race.
00:08:29.680 That's not racism.
00:08:31.120 But every white person is automatically a racist and has no way to get out of that.
00:08:35.700 They're always a racist, always will be a racist.
00:08:38.640 Drag queen shows, great for kids.
00:08:41.900 Fantastic for kids.
00:08:43.420 Words are violence.
00:08:46.320 Not violence.
00:08:47.560 Violence isn't violence.
00:08:48.260 Words are violence.
00:08:50.960 The Constitution, not a document set up a long time ago to give foundational truths,
00:08:56.300 to give the country a path to go.
00:08:59.480 The Constitution's alive.
00:09:01.580 It's constantly changing in front of our eyes.
00:09:05.980 The president, looking at that Constitution, has found a way to spend a trillion dollars
00:09:12.540 without even asking Congress.
00:09:15.520 Which side does that sound like?
00:09:16.580 Let me continue a bit.
00:09:18.360 This is, again, from political ideologies, their origins and impacts.
00:09:21.760 Mussolini begged his audiences to have faith in the Italian myths.
00:09:27.000 Quote, we have created our myth.
00:09:29.120 The myth is a faith.
00:09:30.900 It is passion.
00:09:31.900 It is not necessary that it be a reality.
00:09:35.300 It is reality by the fact that it is a goal.
00:09:38.880 Hope.
00:09:39.980 Faith.
00:09:40.520 Though it could not be scientifically or objectively proved, it was true simply because it existed
00:09:47.560 and served a purpose.
00:09:49.700 Huh.
00:09:50.160 Get this.
00:09:51.220 It's like the democratic platform I'm reading from.
00:09:55.300 How about this?
00:09:57.220 Truth is a subjective quality.
00:10:00.560 Oh my gosh.
00:10:01.720 Available only, Glenn, to a few gifted people whose will or spirit or personality is greater
00:10:10.680 than that of the masses.
00:10:12.500 Oh my gosh.
00:10:13.320 These are quotes from him.
00:10:15.080 This is quotes from the book describing his philosophy, this particular one.
00:10:18.540 Those with superior will perceive a higher truth than others.
00:10:24.480 You might think men and men are women and women, but those with a superior will and understanding
00:10:29.080 see it differently.
00:10:30.900 They instinctively realize the right.
00:10:33.640 See, it's not about the truth.
00:10:35.300 It's their instincts that bring the truth, not what actually is true.
00:10:39.580 They instinctively realize the right, and those who are not so gifted, that's you, everybody,
00:10:46.100 should listen to them, having faith in their leaders, intuitions, and following their orders.
00:10:52.540 All right.
00:10:52.860 Okay.
00:10:53.180 So I think you've made some, you know, point somewhere.
00:10:57.860 I don't know.
00:10:58.400 It was hard to detect.
00:10:59.120 But let me ask you.
00:11:00.060 Let me ask you.
00:11:00.640 We're talking about the leaders.
00:11:02.420 We're talking about the leaders, right?
00:11:04.660 Mm-hmm.
00:11:05.060 You know, who's leading this?
00:11:06.260 You were doing Mussolini, Mussolini.
00:11:08.600 Okay.
00:11:08.920 All right.
00:11:09.880 So let's ask about the leaders.
00:11:12.760 Let's talk about Donald Trump.
00:11:15.060 Okay.
00:11:15.480 Okay.
00:11:16.040 Because he's the fascist.
00:11:18.220 Right.
00:11:18.500 Do you remember when he, through just an executive order, nullified a trillion dollars in contracted
00:11:26.660 student loans?
00:11:28.440 And he did it right before the 2020 election?
00:11:32.040 You remember that?
00:11:32.860 No.
00:11:33.360 Good God.
00:11:34.240 Well, you remember when he added all those IRS agents?
00:11:37.100 You know, at a time when we were really separated, he was like, we're going to be looking into
00:11:43.800 everybody because we got, you know, we got like 90,000 IRS agents.
00:11:49.600 I do not remember that at all.
00:11:51.100 You don't remember that?
00:11:52.060 No.
00:11:52.300 Uh-huh.
00:11:54.100 Okay.
00:11:54.540 Wait a minute.
00:11:54.940 Wait a minute.
00:11:55.860 How about when he was investigating using the IRS and investigating his political foes?
00:12:03.980 Do you remember that?
00:12:05.540 No.
00:12:06.120 No.
00:12:06.460 No.
00:12:06.740 No, I don't.
00:12:08.200 I'm trying to remember who that was.
00:12:09.840 Okay.
00:12:10.180 Okay.
00:12:10.520 Okay.
00:12:10.900 How about when he used the power of the executive office and was listening in to phone calls
00:12:19.100 and spying on reporters?
00:12:20.820 You remember how much he hated those reporters when he did that?
00:12:24.060 I do remember him hating reporters, but I don't remember that.
00:12:26.460 Okay.
00:12:27.580 All right.
00:12:27.900 But we do remember, you know, him using the national security apparatus, you know, of
00:12:33.140 the government to enhance his own election in 2020.
00:12:36.860 We remember when he was promising the Russians because he was colluding with the Russians. 0.68
00:12:41.880 We remember when he leaned over to Medvedev and said, hey, just I need a little room,
00:12:48.020 a little time until the next election.
00:12:50.600 Remember that?
00:12:51.620 No.
00:12:51.840 Yeah.
00:12:52.820 You don't remember that?
00:12:54.820 Well, I remember that.
00:12:55.560 I just don't remember Donald Trump doing it.
00:12:57.080 I'm pretty sure it was him.
00:12:58.860 Pretty sure.
00:12:59.520 Okay.
00:12:59.820 How about using when he used the Republican National Committee firewalls to transfer money
00:13:04.840 to private lobbyists and law firms to find dirt on, you know, on Hillary Clinton and
00:13:12.060 then turn it all over to the FBI, which he's in bed with, to launch a, let's call it a
00:13:18.440 mixed fire storm investigation.
00:13:22.940 You know, you remember that?
00:13:25.900 I don't.
00:13:26.060 And he was, and it was all centered around an ex-spy that the FBI paid, even though they
00:13:31.780 said they weren't working with him anymore because he wasn't credible.
00:13:34.440 Remember that?
00:13:35.240 And then, and then Donald Trump in his FBI, he had those agents talking about how they
00:13:41.180 have to stop Joe Biden from winning the election.
00:13:44.900 You remember that?
00:13:45.520 And then when they burst into the homes of the New York Times reporters and then marched
00:13:51.020 them outside in their underwear for the possible crime of, you know, stealing the draft of the
00:13:58.200 Supreme Court, you know?
00:14:00.400 Yeah.
00:14:01.180 Yeah.
00:14:01.540 Or was it a, no, I seem to remember it was a diary of some, but I think it was, I think
00:14:09.040 it was the Trump daughter that you'd never hear from.
00:14:12.320 Tiffany?
00:14:13.000 She had that, she had that diary, remember?
00:14:15.520 And then the FBI came breaking in or, or the investigation in the suspected illegal lobbying
00:14:22.680 of Joe and Hunter Biden, uh, I remember, remember when he was doing that.
00:14:29.500 And then the department of justice is like, Hey, we're going to keep this on the down low.
00:14:33.420 You know, I have a bad memory.
00:14:35.460 I think you really do something.
00:14:37.100 Okay.
00:14:37.440 How about the, how about when the attorney general refused to congressional subpoena or just
00:14:43.600 refuse to honor subpoenas and withhold the requested documents from Congress?
00:14:49.060 Do you remember that?
00:14:50.260 Or when they, when, when Donald Trump raided Hillary Clinton's house, do you remember that
00:14:56.400 for those stolen documents?
00:14:57.640 I feel like I would have remembered that one.
00:14:58.880 One of these people is more of a fascist than the others trying to figure out which one it
00:15:08.740 is.
00:15:11.180 Again, unreal.
00:15:12.560 Now, it is so clear to see how is it people aren't seeing it.
00:15:19.300 I never truly understood those with eyes will see those with ears will hear.
00:15:25.500 I never understood that.
00:15:27.760 I thought, well, how are you going to be able to see it in black and white?
00:15:30.700 You'll be able to, you'll watch it.
00:15:32.160 What do you mean?
00:15:33.540 We're here.
00:15:34.740 We're here.
00:15:36.700 You refuse to see the truth for some reason.
00:15:40.740 And it's an objective truth.
00:15:45.400 Provable.
00:15:47.280 And yet nobody seems to see it.
00:15:50.840 Is that, is that just me?
00:15:53.000 Is that just you?
00:15:55.160 Are there Democrats that actually do see this stuff?
00:15:59.600 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:16:02.280 So I want you to write this down because you're going to have a hard time finding it.
00:16:11.680 If you're Googling, it took me a while to find it is acts five 29.com acts five 29.com.
00:16:25.040 This is a, it's called the acts five 29 statement.
00:16:30.560 And it is vitally important that your church, your pastor, your rabbi sign this document.
00:16:42.460 And here's what it is.
00:16:44.240 The acts five 29 statement, the first amendment to the United States constitution states, Congress
00:16:50.000 shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free speech
00:16:55.340 or free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press or the right
00:17:01.400 of the people to peacefully assemble and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
00:17:06.840 During the COVID-19 pandemic representatives who were elected to secure our God-given rights,
00:17:13.900 clearly transgressed their lawful authority in executive action that prohibited public meetings
00:17:21.320 or mandated the wearing of masks and social distancing.
00:17:26.860 God's word directs us not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together.
00:17:32.260 Hebrews 10 25.
00:17:33.960 This verse is a divine injunction.
00:17:37.420 We must obey God rather than the arbitrary decrees of men.
00:17:42.000 As a national coalition of pastors and churches, we reject any presidential or gubernatorial decree
00:17:49.580 requiring us to dis, uh, to disobey the word of God.
00:17:54.680 We will resist any attempt by a federal state or local official to restrict or prohibit the
00:18:02.040 free exercise of our religion or place restrictions thereon.
00:18:07.300 The end of all the civil government being, uh, the end of all civil government being the good
00:18:14.460 of society, we affirm our submission to lawful civil authority as instituted by God himself.
00:18:22.240 But when rulers exceed the scope of their constitutional and God-given authority, they act contrary to
00:18:30.220 their office and the public good and affect the ruin and misery of society.
00:18:35.780 We, uh, we do not need the permission of civil authorities to obey what God has commanded,
00:18:42.560 nor does the church need the approval of civil authorities to serve and worship our God in
00:18:49.880 the way he has prescribed.
00:18:51.960 The Greek word translated church is ecclesia, which means the assembly.
00:18:58.640 Our identity as the church of Jesus Christ means that we are by nature and assembly.
00:19:05.340 We assemble to hear the word preached, partake of the sacraments and fellowship with one another.
00:19:12.900 The apostles teachings are unambiguous in this regard.
00:19:17.500 Civil magistrates have no authority to dictate what churches may or may not do.
00:19:22.680 The constitution of the United States is the highest law in our land.
00:19:27.240 In 1803, in Marbury versus Madison, the Supreme court ruled any law repugnant to the constitution
00:19:37.280 is null and void.
00:19:39.300 We are on solid constitutional footing in our refusal to comply with restrictions on public worship.
00:19:45.860 Again, the first amendment states Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion 0.93
00:19:53.080 or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.
00:19:57.380 Any law order or mandate that infringes our God-given right to worship according to conscience
00:20:03.940 violates the first amendment and is unlawful.
00:20:08.160 We, the undersign hereby affirm the preceding statements.
00:20:11.980 You can sign this.
00:20:14.980 If you're a pastor, priest, rabbi, you can also sign this.
00:20:19.780 And if you're just a congregant, you should send it to your pastor, your priest, or your rabbi.
00:20:28.140 It is time that we take a stand.
00:20:31.860 It is time that we do things the right way and peacefully draw the line in the sand.
00:20:42.740 You can arrest us if you want, but I know who I serve.
00:20:49.440 I will not violate the conditions of my first citizenship to meet the demands of my second citizenship.
00:21:01.860 I am first a member of a kingdom, a kingdom of God, and he is my only king.
00:21:10.880 He is my only ruler.
00:21:14.020 I have agreed to live under the laws of the Constitution and to protect and support that Constitution.
00:21:22.460 That's what I have to do to really secure my citizenship in the United States of America.
00:21:31.640 Support the Constitution and defend it if called upon.
00:21:35.480 But when you go extra-constitutional, when you're asking me to do things that you constitutionally don't even have the authority,
00:21:46.500 but instead the Constitution bars you from doing that specific thing,
00:21:53.000 I will not violate.
00:21:55.720 You can't ask me to, because you're in violation.
00:22:02.720 You're in violation of your second citizenship. 0.97
00:22:06.240 I'm holding true to it.
00:22:08.440 And it is all of our responsibility to stand up.
00:22:12.320 This is the first thing that I have seen on COVID that is an act that all of us can take.
00:22:19.560 And it is drawing a line in the sand at our churches.
00:22:24.280 You will not violate our churches.
00:22:27.400 You will not tell us what we can and cannot do in our churches.
00:22:32.620 This is not just about COVID.
00:22:35.940 This is also about what I can read, what my church can say from the pulpit.
00:22:42.080 Because if you think they're going to stay out of the church, the church, what they are building right now,
00:22:50.820 the left is building a church.
00:22:54.820 This is a theocracy that they're building.
00:22:59.140 It looks a lot like fascism, but fascism always has some sort of religion attached to it.
00:23:07.300 It's something that you are to believe, that can't be proved, that you are to believe.
00:23:14.100 We're going to reimagine the police force.
00:23:16.660 How, where, when, what does that look like?
00:23:19.680 Any test results from that?
00:23:21.820 When do we reevaluate if that's working or not?
00:23:24.600 You're asked to just sit down, shut up, and believe.
00:23:30.000 And if you have any questions, that's the dark side that is giving you those questions.
00:23:36.460 Don't ask those questions.
00:23:38.100 Don't even think about those questions.
00:23:41.780 That is an old-style church.
00:23:44.700 I mean, when I say old, I mean dark ages-style church.
00:23:51.040 We need to start standing together.
00:23:53.440 So go to acts529.com.
00:23:57.080 That's acts529.com.
00:24:00.760 You can send it to your pastor easily.
00:24:03.460 You can sign the statement.
00:24:05.060 You can share it.
00:24:06.320 And you could email officials.
00:24:10.220 January 1st, 2023, they are going to be emailing all of the officials' local, state, and federal jurisdictions to inform them that these churches are standing.
00:24:23.820 Well, that's going to put me on a list.
00:24:26.440 Yeah.
00:24:27.240 Yeah.
00:24:28.400 Yep.
00:24:29.040 You know, there's also another list.
00:24:31.620 It's called the Book of Life.
00:24:33.260 Yeah, that one's going to be checked, too.
00:24:36.780 I wonder what you're doing or failing to do.
00:24:40.740 I wonder if that helps your name on the Book of Life.
00:24:44.220 Because in my book, that's the only one that matters.
00:24:47.260 It's time for our pastors to find their strength and to find their purpose.
00:24:56.300 You know, we're all being tested, and I've always looked at this as a good thing.
00:25:01.180 We're being tested right now on, can you actually do what you were sent here to do?
00:25:07.960 Can you actually be the person that you were born to be?
00:25:13.220 Not the person, oh, I don't know.
00:25:16.420 I don't want to do that.
00:25:17.660 No, I don't want to be one of those people.
00:25:21.020 Because I don't.
00:25:22.240 I don't want to do any of this.
00:25:24.080 I really don't.
00:25:27.880 Talked to Rob Schneider the other day.
00:25:29.760 Feels exactly the same way.
00:25:31.660 He's like, I got money.
00:25:32.920 I could just go away.
00:25:34.200 I just go away.
00:25:35.240 Live happy life.
00:25:36.220 Just unplug and be fine.
00:25:39.420 By the time they get to me, it'll be a long time down the road.
00:25:43.200 Probably be dead.
00:25:45.460 Wouldn't mind it.
00:25:50.260 I was born and so were you for this time.
00:25:55.300 And all that requires is us not to go over the cliff with the rest of society.
00:26:01.740 And that just means you have to stand up and draw a line in the sand and say, you know, I'm not going there.
00:26:10.740 Because this is how crazy it's gotten.
00:26:17.700 Here in a very small town in Texas, Roanoke.
00:26:21.420 Over the weekend, there was a family friendly trans show.
00:26:30.720 It wasn't family friendly.
00:26:32.880 It wasn't.
00:26:35.140 Now, you want to take your kids to that? 0.99
00:26:37.420 Fine.
00:26:37.840 I don't get it, but OK, fine.
00:26:42.300 You want to have your kids put money? 1.00
00:26:46.520 Give money to them for their dancing.
00:26:49.540 OK, I don't know exactly what you're teaching your kids.
00:26:52.900 Well, actually, I do.
00:26:54.040 But you apparently don't.
00:26:55.660 Or if you do, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:27:00.840 You know, Biden is going to give this big gun speech this week.
00:27:04.340 He's bound and determined to take AR-15s off of the off the market.
00:27:10.480 OK, OK.
00:27:11.920 Well.
00:27:13.780 Not in my town.
00:27:15.380 Not in my town because my town gets the Constitution.
00:27:20.080 But all right.
00:27:22.160 That's what you want to do.
00:27:23.440 I'd have to call you somebody like a dictator, because that's what dictators would do. 0.95
00:27:32.680 Change the Constitution.
00:27:34.500 Change the Constitution.
00:27:35.880 You want to do that.
00:27:37.200 You believe you have.
00:27:38.640 You're in the majority.
00:27:39.640 Go ahead.
00:27:40.220 Change the Constitution.
00:27:41.460 It allows you to do that.
00:27:43.220 Just amend it.
00:27:44.640 By the way, the Second Amendment no longer applies.
00:27:47.620 Go for it.
00:27:49.200 A dictator just goes around that. 0.99
00:27:53.440 We had people that were Antifa dressed all in black with the black masks and everything else that were actually using ARs from the roof of a garage.
00:28:08.180 They were taking sniper positions in this little town over the weekend.
00:28:13.540 Anybody on the left say anything about that?
00:28:16.380 Do they have a problem?
00:28:17.840 How about this one?
00:28:19.680 If you're thinking, I don't I don't want to be one of those people.
00:28:22.440 I'm not going to I'm not going to sign that.
00:28:24.220 I'm not going to send it to my pastor to sign.
00:28:27.180 The Satanic Temple is scheduled to host an event in September at a Pennsylvania high school auditorium.
00:28:35.880 According to the TST's flyer, that's the Satanic Temple's flyer.
00:28:40.860 The back to school fundraiser is a family friendly night filled with arts and crafts, science experiments, live demos, refreshments and fun for all ages.
00:28:52.600 Northern New York County School District previously voted eight to one to reject a residence request to form the TST sponsored after school Satan's Club.
00:29:02.880 But they had to let them have a little party, you know, there to have a fundraiser.
00:29:14.860 Do they?
00:29:19.240 If you don't think that we are fighting evil, unlike anything you've ever seen before in your life, then you you don't get you don't get it.
00:29:32.880 That we're not fighting.
00:29:34.460 We really are not fighting.
00:29:36.500 Boy, this this rings so true to me now.
00:29:39.340 We don't fight flesh and bone.
00:29:43.400 We are fighting principalities.
00:29:47.360 Princes of the air.
00:29:49.720 We are fighting evil.
00:29:52.800 We are.
00:29:54.600 Tell me what line can be crossed.
00:29:58.760 After.
00:30:00.760 Man boy love.
00:30:02.880 Minor attracted adults.
00:30:06.100 After we after we mainstream.
00:30:10.340 Pedophilia.
00:30:11.500 What what what is the next line gang?
00:30:14.060 What is it?
00:30:15.140 Because I don't see one after that one.
00:30:20.420 If that's the where we're going.
00:30:22.900 No, I'm not going.
00:30:24.340 I'm not going.
00:30:24.980 And so I will stand against all of these incursion into my life because I have certain rights.
00:30:35.680 And they're guaranteed to me.
00:30:38.900 Through the Constitution and God.
00:30:41.760 God gives them and guarantees.
00:30:44.420 The Constitution is to guarantee the government won't do anything about it.
00:30:48.920 And you know what?
00:30:51.540 They will continue to take and take and take until we all put our differences aside and march together.
00:31:00.960 And say, you know what?
00:31:03.200 We still hold these things to be self-evident.
00:31:06.140 And we're not going away.
00:31:07.780 And you're not going to frighten us.
00:31:09.900 Oh, you're going to put us in jail.
00:31:11.060 Don't like it.
00:31:12.220 I don't like it.
00:31:13.980 But if that's what it takes.
00:31:15.560 But that's not going to work unless we all stand together.
00:31:22.420 Start with the pledge.
00:31:27.180 Acts529.com
00:31:28.700 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:31:45.560 There's some really disturbing things coming out.
00:31:50.440 The pandemic eviction moratoriums are expiring now.
00:31:55.220 Rent payment relief programs end all across the country.
00:32:00.000 And about 8.5 million people are behind on rent as the end of August.
00:32:06.940 That's 3.8 million.
00:32:09.520 Let's say they're somewhat or very likely to be evicted over the next two months.
00:32:13.740 Where are these 3.8 million people going to go?
00:32:17.460 Rents continue to tick up.
00:32:19.240 They're now topping $2,000 a month for the first time on record.
00:32:25.240 Rent is $2,000 a month.
00:32:28.520 That's the average?
00:32:30.320 That's an increase by almost 25%.
00:32:34.020 Evictions are spiking in major cities.
00:32:37.240 In Tampa, Florida, evictions were 52% above average in August.
00:32:43.740 In Houston, they were 90% above average.
00:32:48.060 Minneapolis-St. Paul, 94% above average.
00:32:52.160 And I don't know how you get a house there.
00:32:54.220 I mean, they're burning them down as fast as they can build them, I'm sure.
00:32:57.480 Also, the average payment for a new vehicle is now $667 a month.
00:33:05.120 That's the average, $667 a month.
00:33:09.480 That's up nearly 15% from a year before.
00:33:13.060 The average amount borrowed rose 13%.
00:33:16.560 Used car buyers are also borrowing more.
00:33:20.340 The average used vehicle loan jumped 18.7% to $28,534 with an average monthly payment of $515.
00:33:31.760 That's up 17%.
00:33:33.760 The average new car or truck is now $46,259.
00:33:42.760 I don't know how we're going to keep doing this.
00:33:45.480 And listen, there's something that is very, very disturbing.
00:33:50.580 And it is the farmer situation.
00:33:53.280 Farmers are in trouble.
00:33:55.300 And it's only going to get worse.
00:33:57.480 The FDA, now in the $750 billion inflation reduction bill,
00:34:07.480 they provided money for the USDA to give loans, I'm sorry, give grants to minorities.
00:34:17.480 They want to be farmers.
00:34:18.860 Because equity is our biggest problem right now.
00:34:22.680 No, no, I don't think that's our biggest problem.
00:34:26.960 Fertilizer probably is a big problem.
00:34:30.140 Foreclosure on farms, that's probably a big problem. 0.99
00:34:33.800 Water, that's a big problem. 0.98
00:34:36.880 But I don't think diverse workforce on farming is right there at the top of the list
00:34:44.020 that should get the attention of the United States government.
00:34:47.440 By the way, the EU has just unveiled emergency measures to curb soaring energy prices.
00:34:55.860 Gee, I wonder what those will be.
00:34:57.900 They're working on emergency intervention right now.
00:35:01.500 By the way, do we have the cut of the Germans and the faces they were making with Donald Trump at the UN?
00:35:09.700 Look at, watch this.
00:35:10.740 There's the German delegation.
00:35:14.720 Germany will become totally dependent on Russian energy if it does not immediately change course.
00:35:23.500 Look at, look at him laugh.
00:35:25.040 Snicker.
00:35:25.720 What is this guy talking about?
00:35:27.900 Stop.
00:35:28.660 This, this is amazing.
00:35:30.100 But you see the silly music there?
00:35:31.320 You hear that?
00:35:32.120 Yeah.
00:35:32.340 That was showing you how silly the claim was from Donald Trump.
00:35:35.700 That was a liberal website, we should point out, that made that video.
00:35:38.880 And they put the silly music behind it to mock Donald Trump.
00:35:41.760 They're laughing at him in Germany.
00:35:43.720 They're laughing now?
00:35:44.700 I don't think they're laughing now.
00:35:45.880 They're laughing now?
00:35:46.560 If they don't change course now, that was two years ago, three years ago.
00:35:50.520 If they don't change course now, they're going to have serious energy problems and be beholden to Russia. 0.95
00:35:58.860 They're not laughing now.
00:36:00.140 Our friend Carol Roth, who comes on the show a lot to talk about the economy, had just tweeted this story.
00:36:06.620 This is, uh, uh, my mum, you can see all of where this comes from, my mum owns a small cafe.
00:36:13.080 Her electricity bill has just jumped from $12,000 a year, so a thousand bucks a month, to $64,000 a year.
00:36:20.100 Oh my gosh.
00:36:21.720 She's working out her options, but more than likely she will be forced to close.
00:36:26.340 This is happening all over the continent.
00:36:28.860 In England, energy prices are going up tenfold.
00:36:34.660 Tenfold.
00:36:35.640 By October.
00:36:37.520 Tenfold.
00:36:39.000 People are not going to be able to afford this.
00:36:40.760 No.
00:36:41.020 And why?
00:36:41.900 Why is this happening?
00:36:43.820 You know why this is happening?
00:36:46.680 Because the ice is melting.
00:36:49.740 Because we're in this existential threat.
00:36:53.080 But no, it's not why it's happening.
00:36:56.000 It's because people want to get more power and more money.
00:37:02.000 That's really all this is about.
00:37:04.400 By the way, listen to this story.
00:37:05.940 A massive ice sheet in Greenland is set to raise global sea levels by nearly a foot by the end of this century in a melting event driven by human-caused climate change.
00:37:19.060 The findings in the journal Nature Climate Change show that 3.3% of Greenland's ice sheet will melt.
00:37:26.520 That's 110 metric tons of ice.
00:37:29.700 Sorry, 110 trillion metric tons of ice.
00:37:33.080 The ice loss will prompt about 10 inches of sea level rise between now and 2100.
00:37:37.960 You know what?
00:37:38.720 I'm going to take this seriously.
00:37:40.840 When Obama sells his house on the island, when all of the liberals move out of Malibu, when they all sell their homes, which are going to be completely destroyed, and we should get off because we're destroying the natural habitat.
00:38:00.300 We're destroying the beaches.
00:38:01.980 We're destroying all of that.
00:38:03.100 When they start selling their house, then I'll believe it's serious.
00:38:08.740 Or at least I'll believe they're serious about it.
00:38:12.480 But right now, I don't think they're serious about it, and I don't think it's serious.
00:38:18.380 Well, prove me wrong.
00:38:20.920 Start moving out of those areas.
00:38:22.920 Start moving to higher ground.
00:38:25.700 No, second thought, don't, because I don't want you anywhere near the mountains.
00:38:30.860 Oh, my goodness.
00:38:32.220 Let me go to Connie in North Carolina.
00:38:35.300 Hello, Connie.
00:38:38.680 Hi.
00:38:39.820 How are you?
00:38:40.780 Very good.
00:38:42.580 Everything's great.
00:38:43.660 Thank you.
00:38:44.380 Good.
00:38:46.180 I have a comment that I would like to make.
00:38:49.500 I have been helping candidates through a campaign consulting firm, and as a voter now, I've kind of observed a couple of habits that are taking place.
00:39:05.380 Our grassroots candidates that are running for Republican, they're being stomped out by, you know, the establishment in different areas.
00:39:18.740 Yes.
00:39:19.460 Yep, I know.
00:39:20.260 So I have another candidate in Connecticut that they snubbed her out, a great conservative. 0.94
00:39:30.700 And so we're like, okay, well, we're going to start looking at the independent party.
00:39:37.300 And she was up to get the endorsement on Sunday.
00:39:43.820 But then what happens?
00:39:46.280 Another Republican candidate came in, and on the local level, because it's a local race, he got the endorsement for the independent and the Republicans.
00:40:01.960 So the GOP is basically bullying themselves into these other parties, which now I am looking at very actively, what are the other parties in North Carolina?
00:40:18.520 Because all I'm ever told is, oh, you can't change parties.
00:40:23.320 You're bad.
00:40:24.320 You're evil.
00:40:25.080 It must be for the greater good.
00:40:27.240 Well, guess what?
00:40:28.160 I don't believe in the greater good.
00:40:30.100 I believe in truth.
00:40:32.680 And if that means losing, then that's what you do.
00:40:36.500 But the people are losing because these candidates aren't being placed on the ballot for the people to even know about.
00:40:46.160 They're being pushed out.
00:40:47.700 So what I'm doing now is I'm just doing research in North Carolina just as a voter and trying to find out what's going on.
00:40:57.180 But I am going to keep doing that and decide what's going on.
00:41:00.760 Well, Connie, I'm not going to talk you out of it.
00:41:03.240 I do believe that this is the possible last midterm election we will have.
00:41:11.180 The country is on the line.
00:41:14.560 And I do believe that if we don't all hang together, we will hang separately.
00:41:30.480 And I agree with you.
00:41:33.740 I've seen the Republican Party do some awful things.
00:41:37.220 But the most effective thing we can do is do our best to get that party to come back our way.
00:41:46.820 It may not be.
00:41:48.680 It may not be possible.
00:41:50.480 I would be for disbanding the Republican Party and starting from scratch.
00:41:54.720 I think the leadership of the Republican Party is the biggest problem.
00:42:00.020 Mitch McConnell and I think Kevin McCarthy.
00:42:02.480 I don't trust him a bit to do the right thing.
00:42:06.700 You know, he's he's part of the problem.
00:42:08.780 I think a lot of people I know like him.
00:42:10.940 I don't.
00:42:12.420 But I will tell you this.
00:42:14.460 Don't give up.
00:42:15.280 And I'm not trying to convince your mind or convince you to go the other way.
00:42:19.120 Connie, you do what you feel is right.
00:42:21.060 But just hear me out.
00:42:23.340 That's the way we all felt at the end of the Tea Party.
00:42:27.280 They they came in and took over the Tea Party and did everything they could to destroy it.
00:42:36.040 And they weren't serious.
00:42:37.380 But the few people that we did get in made a huge difference.
00:42:41.780 And it was the Tea Party that set up everything that you're seeing now in the Supreme Court.
00:42:48.060 And that's not me saying that.
00:42:50.460 That's the New York Times saying that.
00:42:52.960 Connie, thank you so much for your phone call.
00:42:54.900 I understand your frustration.
00:42:56.660 Tammy, California.
00:42:58.260 Welcome.
00:43:00.180 Good morning, Glenn.
00:43:01.440 How are you?
00:43:02.260 Very good.
00:43:04.200 Good.
00:43:04.780 I have a question.
00:43:07.040 Yeah.
00:43:07.220 When I hear Nancy Pelosi or Kareem Jean-Pierre say our Constitution is under attack, I feel that they have attacked our Constitution.
00:43:23.520 It doesn't seem like it's the same Constitution that's hanging on my wall.
00:43:28.100 It was written in 1776.
00:43:31.100 It's like a 20, 20.
00:43:34.540 Yeah, well, it's not that it's it's the first of all, the Constitution, 1789 and Bill of Rights, 1791.
00:43:46.000 But I'll tell you, they don't believe in the Declaration of Independence, which was 1776.
00:43:50.880 And they don't care about the Constitution.
00:43:53.880 It's all of that stuff is hyperbole.
00:43:56.640 All of that stuff is just to image themselves as Americans.
00:44:02.540 They don't care about the Constitution.
00:44:06.820 We must.
00:44:08.300 We must.
00:44:09.020 Na, na, na, na, na.
