00:00:00.980 Today's September 11th. It's been 22 years. Think of that. 22 years.
00:00:10.060 Incredible. It does not feel like that long ago. And you realize, like, even looking back at some of the footage, you know, it doesn't, it's not in HD.
00:00:17.760 You know what I mean? It's like, you could tell it's old. People are dressed ways that seem like they're old-timey, you know, New York business person attire.
00:00:27.160 And you realize how long ago it was and how difficult it's going to be for people to, like, remember the lessons that we learned after that.
00:00:35.260 Yeah. It seems like a lot of people have forgotten already.
00:00:36.900 Yeah. Well, we're going to help you remember some of those things or invite you to share it with your kids so they understand what happened.
00:00:45.840 We have that. We also talked to the Missouri AG who has just won another suit against the White House on its positioning with social media.
00:00:59.080 Also, speaking of AGs, we also will tell you about the amazing impeachment trial.
00:01:08.100 It sounds more like a kangaroo court here in Texas to impeach the attorney general.
00:01:13.860 It makes no sense. You need to be aware of it.
00:01:17.680 If this is happening in Texas, God only knows what's happening in your state.
00:01:22.060 All this and more on today's podcast brought to you by Relief Factor.
00:01:25.680 Here. I have Bob Bibbertson with us now.
00:01:29.580 And, Bob, you are suffering from pain in what part of your...
00:01:34.180 Gluteus.
00:01:36.500 Gluteus minimus.
00:01:38.040 Gluteus minimus.
00:01:39.020 Yes.
00:01:39.320 Where is... I know the maximus is the...
00:01:41.100 You don't want to know where it is.
00:01:42.540 Wow. Okay. So you have pain there.
00:01:44.340 Oh, yeah.
00:01:44.900 And you've had it for a long time.
00:01:46.900 Yes. 413 years.
00:01:50.540 Well, so you're an older...
00:01:51.560 I am older.
00:01:52.320 That's, uh...
00:01:53.860 Relatively, but I'm young at heart.
00:01:56.080 Right. Okay.
00:01:56.820 So have you tried getting... You've tried everything.
00:01:59.560 I've tried everything except Relief Factor.
00:02:01.780 And the reason for that is I heard Glenn Beck speaking about Relief Factor, so I immediately dismissed it.
00:02:06.800 I don't...
00:02:07.440 I thought it would... It was probably made of poison.
00:02:10.240 But apparently, I'm being told now that it is not and it actually helps people.
00:02:14.100 Okay. So have you tried it?
00:02:15.440 I have not yet.
00:02:16.320 You have not yet?
00:02:16.980 No.
00:02:17.720 Should I... Can I... Do you have some?
00:02:19.280 I can...
00:02:19.560 I can snag.
00:02:20.720 Where do I go to get it?
00:02:22.220 Well, you just go online to ReliefFactor.com.
00:02:25.240 Oh, okay.
00:02:25.820 Or you can call them at 1-800, the number 4, Relief.
00:02:31.480 Do I have to type in the letters that spell the number?
00:02:34.880 T-H-E-N-U-M-B-E-R? 1.00
00:02:37.260 It's ReliefFactor.com.
00:02:38.860 Feel the difference.
00:02:39.820 The Democratic governor of New Mexico said she expects legal challenges, but was compelled
00:03:03.160 to act because of recent shootings, including the death of an 11-year-old boy outside a minor
00:03:09.520 league baseball stadium this week.
00:03:12.380 She said the state police are going to be responsible for enforcing what amounts to civil
00:03:17.940 violations.
00:03:18.660 I urge the state police in New Mexico and every state police officer, every local police
00:03:28.060 officer, every sheriff, please re-read your oath.
00:03:34.680 Read the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
00:03:37.780 And also read Ordinary Men.
00:03:41.020 Please.
00:03:41.700 So, the state police are going to do it because, I can't believe this, this is great, the Albuquerque
00:03:49.640 police chief, Harold Medina, said, I'm not enforcing this.
00:03:54.680 And, what is it, Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen said, I'm uneasy about it because
00:04:05.180 it raises too many questions about constitutional rights.
00:04:08.100 You're uneasy about it.
00:04:11.700 I may want to do things.
00:04:17.140 Me as a human, I may want to do things, but there are certain things that God granted all
00:04:25.980 people that I am sworn to never violate.
00:04:31.380 Stop being so mamby-pamby wussy. 0.99
00:04:36.060 Step to the plate.
00:04:37.320 You can say, I feel uneasy because, but then step to the plate.
00:04:45.840 This is a violation of God-given rights.
00:04:50.100 Now, let me ask you, why is it only 30 days?
00:04:53.880 Why'd she only do this for 30 days? 0.87
00:04:55.480 Just to take a breather?
00:04:57.540 We all have to take a breather.
00:04:59.300 No.
00:04:59.820 I think she picked 30 days because it won't have time to get through court. 0.98
00:05:11.020 And so, if it's not challenged in court, does it stand if it's just temporary?
00:05:18.640 Does it stand or not?
00:05:20.420 I don't know.
00:05:21.800 She did it.
00:05:22.720 Got away with it.
00:05:24.960 Didn't go to court.
00:05:27.980 This must go to court.
00:05:30.340 All the way to the Supreme Court.
00:05:32.220 30 days, 30 seconds.
00:05:34.520 You cannot violate the Constitution.
00:05:37.640 Yes or no?
00:05:38.660 It cannot be ambiguous.
00:05:43.420 And I think that's why she did it.
00:05:46.700 Now, listen to this story.
00:05:49.540 Sunday afternoon, dozens of gun rights activists gathered in Old Town Albuquerque to voice their displeasure.
00:05:59.700 Gun rights activists?
00:06:01.300 Were they flown in from the NRA or gun owners of America?
00:06:08.280 Who are these people?
00:06:10.860 Or are they just Americans concerned about the violation of their civil rights?
00:06:17.380 There is a difference between an activist and a standard citizen standing up and going, no.
00:06:26.580 But if they tag you as an activist, you don't want to be an activist.
00:06:30.220 I don't want to be an activist.
00:06:31.300 The last thing I want to be is an activist.
00:06:35.040 I would just like people to leave me, my business, my family alone.
00:06:41.120 And do the same for other businesses, families, and citizens.
00:06:47.320 Leave us alone.
00:06:52.420 Protesters proudly displayed American, Gadsden, and come and take it flags.
00:06:58.420 A man was holding a sign addressed to Grisham that read,
00:07:02.080 Our founding fathers warned us about you.
00:07:05.780 A woman was holding a sign that stated,
00:07:08.380 Gun rights are women's rights. 1.00
00:07:10.920 So far, those signs, 100% accurate.
00:07:15.740 A demonstrator proclaimed,
00:07:17.500 This will not stand.
00:07:19.260 We will not comply.
00:07:21.260 Good.
00:07:21.840 A woman identifying as an indigenous person told the crowd,
00:07:36.080 The law doesn't protect us.
00:07:38.340 Right.
00:07:42.080 Another woman. 0.96
00:07:43.460 We don't know what color she is. 0.88
00:07:45.660 We had to identify the one indigenous person.
00:07:48.140 Everyone else will let you assume whatever race you think is really bad. 0.98
00:07:54.240 Whites.
00:07:54.800 Another white woman. 0.99
00:07:57.120 Another woman said, 0.91
00:07:58.280 Our rights come from God and our privileges come from government.
00:08:03.940 One speaker at the armed rally in Albuquerque,
00:08:07.880 Defying the gun carrying ban,
00:08:10.080 Told the crowd,
00:08:11.080 They need to go out and do this every day,
00:08:12.980 Or else it wouldn't have an impact.
00:08:15.620 There was one anti-gun demonstrator wearing a mask.
00:08:20.820 But the gun activists gave him a chance to speak,
00:08:24.280 And then attempted to refute his claims.
00:08:26.480 Oh.
00:08:27.400 So they believed in free speech, too.
00:08:30.420 Hmm.
00:08:33.280 The Senate,
00:08:34.720 The state,
00:08:36.180 Must justify,
00:08:38.180 The carry prohibition,
00:08:40.280 By demonstrating that it is consistent with the nation's historic tradition of firearm regulation.
00:08:47.280 But it is impossible for the state to meet this burden,
00:08:50.820 Because there is no such historic tradition of firearms regulation in the nation.
00:08:56.220 This is according to a new lawsuit.
00:08:58.920 Throughout the suit,
00:08:59.880 The plaintiff cite a 22 Supreme Court decision that struck down the New York gun law.
00:09:06.420 Good.
00:09:07.540 Ron DeSantis ripped it.
00:09:10.340 Ron DeSantis came out and said,
00:09:12.020 She's now asserting the power to infringe on a Second Amendment right by executive fiat. 1.00
00:09:17.560 An assertion is not surprising like this since 2020.
00:09:22.040 Public health has become the pretext for depriving citizens of civil liberties and trampling on our constitutional rights.
00:09:29.680 It ends when I'm president.
00:09:31.940 Your Second Amendment shall not be infringed.
00:09:35.900 Amen.
00:09:39.140 Jonathan Turley said,
00:09:40.220 This is absolutely unconstitutional.
00:09:43.240 Can I add a couple things to this, Glenn?
00:09:44.820 Yeah.
00:09:45.740 Ted Lieu,
00:09:46.800 The congressman.
00:09:48.460 Yeah.
00:09:48.880 Democrat.
00:09:49.620 We would agree on him on basically nothing.
00:09:51.960 And he would support all sorts of gun laws that we would consider unconstitutional.
00:09:57.200 So this is not someone coming from our side of the argument.
00:09:59.500 He wrote about this.
00:10:00.800 I support gun safety laws.
00:10:02.440 However, this order from the governor of New Mexico violates the U.S. Constitution.
00:10:06.940 No state in the union can suspend the federal constitution.
00:10:10.420 There is no such thing as a state public health emergency exception to the U.S. Constitution.
00:10:15.940 Huh.
00:10:16.220 Now, I feel like a lot of Democrats for the last three years have been telling us there very much is a public health exception to the U.S. Constitution.
00:10:24.400 However, you know, I think it's important to, when someone is right, to point out that they're right.
00:10:29.540 Well, notice what he said, though.
00:10:31.520 It's a federal constitution, so no state can override the federal constitution.
00:10:39.600 He didn't say the feds can't override it.
00:10:42.500 Yeah.
00:10:43.200 And believe me, we would disagree with him on tons of stuff.
00:10:46.140 Right, but it is true that the state cannot override it, and it's important, because there have been times, I mean, you know, you go back in history, you find plenty of times where things were done to the U.S. Constitution that I would not approve of at the federal level.
00:11:00.420 But the state certainly can't do it.
00:11:02.520 So wait a minute.
00:11:03.220 So I don't understand this problem.
00:11:05.260 Are you saying that if there's a federal law, let's say on, I don't know, marijuana or, gee, let me think of another one, immigration status, that it causes a problem when the state or the cities disagree with the feds and just go their own way?
00:11:28.080 Yeah, you can't do that.
00:11:29.360 Huh.
00:11:29.700 You can't do that.
00:11:30.580 Huh.
00:11:30.860 And this is an increasing tactic done by the left.
00:11:35.800 You mentioned one tactic that they've attempted, which is this idea of passing these crazy laws they know are unconstitutional, but passing them for short periods of time.
00:11:43.800 The exact ruling that came out from New York, what was it, last year, was a situation where this occurred.
00:11:50.100 They passed a gun law.
00:11:51.220 They knew, I mean, they had to have known it was unconstitutional.
00:11:54.020 It was blatantly unconstitutional.
00:11:56.080 And what they tried to do when they realized it got taken up to the court, they tried to fight it on all the lower levels to try to say, oh, well, you know, for this reason, it shouldn't, you know, shouldn't go to court.
00:12:05.800 And they tried to win all those early rulings.
00:12:08.280 They didn't.
00:12:09.120 They lost them all.
00:12:09.920 And once they lost them all, they basically nullified their own law.
00:12:12.560 They withdrew the law, hoping that the court would say, well, the law doesn't exist anymore, so we can't rule on it.
00:12:18.460 And the court, to their credit, said, no, that's not going to work.
00:12:22.000 We're going to talk about this anyway, even though it's now supposedly moot, because you ran away from the courts.
00:12:27.560 You tried to evade the courts.
00:12:28.740 It's only moot.
00:12:29.460 It's only moot if you can stop the court from ruling on it.
00:12:34.240 Then you can try it again.
00:12:35.840 Yep.
00:12:36.240 And again and again and again.
00:12:37.720 So that is what she's trying to do here, I believe.
00:12:40.240 I am telling you, we are, and I've said this now for four years or so, we're one emergency away.
00:12:51.280 We're one emergency away.
00:12:54.580 All that has to happen, and it's got to be a major one, but we are a September 11th away from all of this going away.
00:13:04.640 And what they're trying to do now is just manufacture those September 11ths out of things like gun violence problems or climate change issues. 0.62
00:13:13.480 The attack on the Capitol, which every American was against.
00:13:17.100 You know, look at this.
00:13:19.140 George Floyd, every American was against what happened.
00:13:24.280 Every American.
00:13:25.000 I don't know anyone who said, oh, no, he was right.
00:13:29.500 The cop was right.
00:13:30.340 No, I don't know a single one.
00:13:33.880 And they used that to divide us, even though there was no division.
00:13:39.060 None.
00:13:40.220 None whatsoever.
00:13:43.000 They not only manufacture things, but then when we're all in alignment, they still manufacture the division.
00:13:53.940 And going back to January 6th here, Glenn, let me ask you this question, and I mean this sincerely.
00:14:03.200 What's the real insurrection?
00:14:05.560 Is it a bunch of idiots in horn hats ransacking the Capitol?
00:14:11.080 Or is it a governor of a state overturning the Second Amendment by yourself?
00:14:17.340 Is it the federal government saying, you know what, $500 billion of student loans?
00:14:23.660 Kapoof.
00:14:24.640 They're just gone.
00:14:25.980 Forever.
00:14:26.760 Is it the eviction moratorium that they just implemented?
00:14:31.520 Which one is really challenging our civilization as it stands?
00:14:36.760 Which one is doing it?
00:14:37.780 They're saying that September, I'm sorry, January 6th, which we were all united on and still are pretty united now.
00:14:46.800 Now, the gray areas have started to come because of the way the FBI has handled this.
00:14:52.400 But none of us are against the people who are breaking the glass and the windows and tearing everything up and came in hoods and helmets and everything else.
00:15:01.320 None of us are against, none of us are for that.
00:15:05.260 But what they've done since then, they say that that group was trying to overthrow the Constitution.
00:15:13.540 No, Stu is exactly right.
00:15:17.720 It's what the courts and the FBI have done.
00:15:21.480 Now, they are causing the constitutional crisis.
00:15:26.080 They are the ones.
00:15:27.440 That's why, you know, people are like, we should secede.
00:15:29.680 No, we shouldn't.
00:15:31.160 No, we shouldn't.
00:15:31.940 I stand by our founding documents as written.
00:15:39.060 We haven't used them in about 100 years.
00:15:42.360 So don't tell me they failed.
00:15:44.640 We haven't used them.
00:15:47.460 And beyond not using them, now we are in violation of them almost every single day.
00:15:54.560 And it's not me.
00:15:55.940 I'm not anti-government.
00:15:57.620 I am anti-unconstitutional government.
00:16:03.460 I'm fine when the government's playing, you know, in the rules.
00:16:08.040 As long as they're playing by the rules, I'm perfectly fine.
00:16:11.680 They're not playing by the rules, gang.
00:16:16.520 Well, that's why we've got to not play by the rules.
00:16:19.160 No, that makes us them.
00:16:21.520 How about we try that old dusty document that no one has tried.
00:16:25.640 Tell me what you want.
00:16:28.860 Tell me what kind of country you want.
00:16:32.420 Now, if you want a fascistic, you want one led by a strong leader,
00:16:37.620 then you're going to have to go away from the Constitution.
00:16:40.640 I want people to be free, to be left alone,
00:16:45.080 for there is rule of law that we judge every man.
00:16:51.500 Justice is blind.
00:16:53.120 I want that one.
00:16:56.640 And we already have the formula for that.
00:16:59.900 I want that pulled off the shelf and actually applied.
00:17:05.860 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:17:09.000 It is September 11th, 2023.
00:17:13.040 22 years ago, I wrote an essay called The Greatest American Generation.
00:17:25.460 I reread it this weekend and wondered how much of that is still true.
00:17:33.100 How much of that do I still believe?
00:17:35.740 How much has changed?
00:17:37.240 Here's what I wrote.
00:17:43.020 I've always believed that the greatest American generation is the one that is living in the here and the now.
00:17:51.800 The question is not if this is the greatest American generation.
00:17:56.240 The question is, will we wake up and become it?
00:18:00.940 I remember staying at my grandparents' house in the summer when I was small.
00:18:07.260 And every morning, before there was even light,
00:18:12.560 my grandmother would open up the attic door from downstairs to these wooden steps.
00:18:18.280 And she'd say, kids, it's time to wake up.
00:18:23.760 My sisters usually bounded out of bed, but I was usually the one that it took her a few times 1.00
00:18:28.600 before I'd lumber out of bed and cross the cold, squeaky wooden floor.
00:18:33.640 But eventually, I would.
00:18:36.180 Mainly because I could smell breakfast from the attic.
00:18:40.100 My grandfather was always outside.
00:18:45.040 He was already there.
00:18:46.180 I think he had been there since probably four o'clock in the morning feeding the chickens.
00:18:51.280 They were hardworking, good and decent people.
00:18:57.620 Growing up seemed to me that they were from not only a different time, but also a different place.
00:19:06.580 But they weren't.
00:19:10.100 The spirit of our parents and our grandparents isn't from some foreign place.
00:19:16.260 It hasn't died out.
00:19:18.180 We've just not attended to it.
00:19:22.360 It's a flame that flickers in all of us.
00:19:25.960 And it is there, ready to blaze again to life,
00:19:29.700 when we're ready to face the challenges that now lie at our feet.
00:19:36.580 It's what sets us apart.
00:19:40.100 It's what built this country.
00:19:43.940 The average person did not cross the Rocky Mountains.
00:19:48.680 I would have never done it.
00:19:51.300 I don't know what that says about me, but I would have looked at those mountains.
00:19:54.320 I would have looked honestly at the Missouri River and said,
00:19:57.060 nope, not crossing that.
00:19:58.440 No bridge.
00:19:59.460 Build a bridge.
00:20:00.300 I'll be back.
00:20:01.940 The Rocky Mountains?
00:20:03.440 Not a shot.
00:20:04.460 But people did it.
00:20:07.560 This is what sets us apart.
00:20:12.040 It's what built us.
00:20:13.680 It's why our borders
00:20:14.980 still team with the poor and the tired and those yearning to breathe free.
00:20:22.840 I don't know about the people crossing our border now.
00:20:30.460 But those immigrants that came to our shores, across our border, crossing an ocean, 0.99
00:20:37.660 most likely they were your relatives.
00:20:43.620 They were my relatives coming here in the 18 and the 1900s.
00:20:49.280 They were searching for a better way of life.
00:20:54.740 The flame that Lady Liberty holds is the, hmm, we deem it the American spirit.
00:21:06.300 And it is supposed to burn inside all of us, no matter what our race, our gender, our religious background.
00:21:13.320 But it actually was originally built as a reminder to the people of Europe of the freedoms that allowed America to capture the creativity of human spirit.
00:21:28.300 The flame that she holds is called imprisoned lightning.
00:21:34.920 And it's a salute to the invention of the light bulb, perhaps the greatest invention of all time.
00:21:42.360 It turned darkness into light, something that before Edison was truly in the realm of God.
00:21:51.640 But now so much of what we have and experience today, it's, it's just expected.
00:22:01.800 It's normal.
00:22:02.380 It's humdrum.
00:22:04.840 But it isn't.
00:22:08.040 Everything around us is truly as miraculous as the imprisoned lightning.
00:22:14.820 Because it all started with an idea.
00:22:19.420 And.
00:22:21.640 The world is watching us.
00:22:26.600 It's not new.
00:22:28.080 It always has been watching us.
00:22:30.100 Since the dawn of man, people dreamt of a better life.
00:22:33.940 Dreamt of a better way.
00:22:36.100 Dreamt of being free.
00:22:38.180 They looked for Camelot.
00:22:40.500 Where a king wouldn't slaughter them and take everything they can.
00:22:45.180 But Camelot was a dream.
00:22:47.180 It was the iron fist of the king and all those he found favor with.
00:22:53.620 Who lorded.
00:22:56.340 Lorded their station above us and crushed the dream of bettering oneself and owning just a small patch of land that was theirs.
00:23:04.860 That I could follow my heart and my passions.
00:23:15.920 Man, it seems needed an ocean between the old ways.
00:23:20.700 That ocean is as small as a backyard pond now.
00:23:39.540 And there is no other place to go.
00:23:44.500 It was Americans that finally found a way to build a better tomorrow for the individual.
00:23:55.560 No promises.
00:23:58.560 Just an honest effort.
00:24:00.700 Out of all that we have built, the powerful machines, the computers, the weapons of mass destruction, the hardware and the software that we spend millions on every year to protect and keep our plans secret.
00:24:16.500 Our biggest secret seems to be the one that the world wants most of all is not a secret.
00:24:29.980 It is something we used to freely give to the rest of the world, but now it seems we're so arrogant, we act as if it is a secret and we jam it down everybody's throat.
00:24:47.500 It was the self-evident truths that all men are created equal for some reason that hasn't been really fully duplicated anywhere else.
00:25:01.860 It's influenced so many countries around the world.
00:25:07.780 It can't even be passed on from person to person.
00:25:13.840 Let me say that again.
00:25:15.420 It cannot be passed on from person to person, torch to torch.
00:25:24.000 It has to be earned.
00:25:27.040 It has to be lovingly taught.
00:25:31.860 That's how you gain the American spirit.
00:25:38.580 22 years ago, we were lucky enough not to be trapped in one of those towers or on a plane or in the building.
00:25:45.420 When is the last time you gave thanks for the last 20 years?
00:25:53.220 Not for our lives.
00:25:57.840 But for the ability to have more time to change our ways.
00:26:05.900 God has not forsaken us.
00:26:08.520 This is so crucial that we understand.
00:26:15.000 He has been trying to awaken us.
00:26:18.160 He has been standing at the bottom of the stairs and gently calling out,
00:26:22.780 kids, it is time to wake up.
00:26:26.080 We've been given another chance.
00:26:28.480 And we don't get up.
00:26:30.040 We got up for a few minutes and then fell back to sleep after 9-11.
00:26:35.560 And then we had the crash of 08.
00:26:38.100 Kids, wake up.
00:26:42.460 Then we've had everything from 2016 to today, over and over and over.
00:26:48.420 It seems like every day.
00:26:49.920 He's like, get up.
00:26:51.040 When and what will it take for us to actually get up and begin a new day?
00:27:04.240 Thousands of years ago in Babel, the great civilization, 0.98
00:27:12.980 in their arrogance, built a tower to reach the sky.
00:27:16.840 They wanted to be God.
00:27:20.900 It didn't just crumble.
00:27:23.380 God destroyed it.
00:27:25.200 Not out of anger, but out of love.
00:27:29.500 He is God.
00:27:30.920 He said, we are not.
00:27:34.360 The people were scattered.
00:27:41.540 Our symbols of power and wealth
00:27:43.980 crumbled before our eyes
00:27:46.780 on that Tuesday 20-plus years ago.
00:27:54.680 But what did we do?
00:27:56.820 We built a bigger tower.
00:28:00.920 We sought vengeance
00:28:02.880 and justice.
00:28:05.580 And then,
00:28:06.320 I don't know what happened to us.
00:28:11.860 I wrote at the time,
00:28:13.280 Americans aren't ever going to scatter.
00:28:15.800 Let the world recognize through our actions today
00:28:18.320 that those firefighters in New York
00:28:20.180 are not the exception.
00:28:21.500 They are the rule.
00:28:23.140 Because Americans don't run from burning buildings.
00:28:26.000 We run into them.
00:28:28.200 Is that still true?
00:28:30.920 It was a beautiful fall morning.
00:28:39.380 Right on the edge of the land
00:28:41.220 created through divine providence.
00:28:46.240 Our little coffee shops
00:28:47.980 were open.
00:28:49.780 Children were on buses.
00:28:52.220 People were in the subway.
00:28:53.820 People were in the streets.
00:28:55.080 Some were just standing on the sidewalk,
00:28:59.180 soaking up that sun.
00:29:02.680 People were easing into another typical work day.
00:29:08.480 When America's greatest generation heard the voice,
00:29:11.840 kids,
00:29:12.820 it's time to wake up.
00:29:14.240 The task before us now is much more daunting
00:29:25.200 than what our grandparents and parents faced.
00:29:28.800 We must be stronger.
00:29:30.560 We must be personally,
00:29:36.520 spiritually,
00:29:37.620 physically,
00:29:38.620 temporally prepared.
00:29:40.860 Because the torch has passed to us.
00:29:44.860 Will we be the greatest American generation or not?
00:29:48.900 Will the American experiment die with us
00:29:53.800 or blaze again?
00:30:08.520 More in a minute.
00:30:10.020 The days finally come to a close
00:30:12.920 and you ease yourself down into bed
00:30:14.360 and then you stare up at the ceiling.
00:30:15.700 What?
00:30:16.000 Okay,
00:30:16.360 what do I have to do?
00:30:17.100 I got to do this tomorrow.
00:30:18.440 I should write that down.
00:30:19.580 Okay,
00:30:21.340 so you're sitting there
00:30:22.320 and then you think,
00:30:24.740 I have to do all of this tomorrow in pain.
00:30:27.640 In pain.
00:30:28.820 Millions of Americans deal with the pain in their lives
00:30:31.320 every single day.
00:30:32.380 It's hard to go to bed.
00:30:33.920 It's hard to go to sleep.
00:30:35.460 It's hard to get up.
00:30:37.700 Do something about the pain.

00:31:13.420 Feel the difference.
00:31:14.200 10 seconds.
00:31:15.260 Station ID.
00:31:19.580 I remember in the days after September 11th,
00:31:29.960 the feeling in the country was,
00:31:34.600 I want something to do.
00:31:36.380 What do I do?
00:31:37.440 What do I do?
00:31:38.880 And the president said,
00:31:40.560 go shopping.
00:31:42.600 Your patriotic duty was to go shopping.
00:31:50.280 I was so offended by that.
00:31:52.380 I remember in the time of World War II,
00:31:55.000 my grandparents and my mom,
00:31:57.120 my dad,
00:31:57.800 would go out and they'd gather scrap metal
00:31:59.860 from the neighborhood.
00:32:00.620 Ours was to go shopping.
00:32:12.980 We have given up so many freedoms.
00:32:15.800 We have given broad power to the government
00:32:18.940 in the name of safety.
00:32:20.720 Well,
00:32:21.080 we better not get onto the plane that TSA is there
00:32:23.980 because they want to make sure that they get Muslim extremists.
00:32:27.900 When's the last time you heard that?
00:32:31.920 Now you may be the extremist.
00:32:35.620 Drones are flying over our cities.
00:32:37.740 The Department of Agriculture has its own SWAT team.
00:32:41.400 The president of the United States is about to forgive all student loans,
00:32:46.060 putting himself knowingly above Congress.
00:32:48.860 For the first time,
00:32:49.920 we're threatening to put a former president in prison
00:32:52.660 along with his attorneys
00:32:55.300 for questioning election results.
00:32:58.820 Something that was done every election
00:33:01.180 by the same people who questioned
00:33:03.100 every election they lost since 2020.
00:33:06.520 They're now screaming,
00:33:07.860 lock him up
00:33:08.480 for doing what Al Gore's attorneys did legally in 2000.
00:33:13.660 It is legal.
00:33:14.760 When was the last time you ever saw
00:33:19.560 a defendant's attorneys
00:33:21.260 go to jail?
00:33:23.340 I don't know if I've ever seen that.
00:33:27.380 You can now scoop Americans 1.00
00:33:29.060 right off the street
00:33:30.040 without a warrant or trial.
00:33:31.920 We know they eavesdrop
00:33:33.200 on every keystroke
00:33:34.880 or every utterance.
00:33:36.760 Let's not forget that in Utah,
00:33:38.940 the NSA has a storage facility
00:33:40.760 for data holding all of their phone calls,
00:33:42.960 emails, and electronic surveillance
00:33:44.820 that is five times
00:33:47.500 the size of the Capitol complex
00:33:49.840 in Washington, D.C.
00:33:51.420 Five times.
00:33:56.460 How did we get here?
00:34:00.680 Because we bought into the lie
00:34:02.720 that our patriotic duty
00:34:04.280 is to go shopping,
00:34:05.920 to do something fun.
00:34:09.340 It's not.
00:34:10.180 Our patriotic duty requires work.
00:34:13.960 It requires us to be informed.
00:34:16.540 I never learned history.
00:34:18.500 I never learned the Bill of Rights
00:34:19.660 or the Constitution
00:34:20.420 or I never learned whatever in school.
00:34:23.160 Great.
00:34:23.880 Neither did I.
00:34:25.080 So what's our excuse now?
00:34:27.980 We cannot have a country
00:34:30.040 if we don't understand
00:34:32.380 our Bill of Rights.
00:34:33.560 What the hell are you fighting for?
00:34:35.820 I'm fighting for America
00:34:37.880 and the American way of life.
00:34:40.180 What is that?
00:34:41.160 What creates that?
00:34:42.880 The Constitution,
00:34:44.640 the rule of law,
00:34:45.880 the Bill of Rights.
00:34:47.500 That's what creates it.
00:34:49.840 What are we trying to create?
00:34:52.140 The mission statement
00:34:53.380 in the Declaration of Independence.
00:34:56.500 Why did we break away
00:34:58.000 from a country
00:34:58.900 that we loved at the time
00:35:01.500 in many ways?
00:35:03.540 It's in the Declaration of Independence.
00:35:05.760 Is there any relevance to that?
00:35:08.140 Yes.
00:35:08.580 Most of it is being done
00:35:10.180 now by our own government
00:35:12.340 in spite of the Constitution.
00:35:24.100 Tomorrow is September 12th.
00:35:25.760 The biggest day in my life
00:35:29.880 when I saw Americans 0.96
00:35:30.900 being good and decent.
00:35:32.800 We helped each other.
00:35:33.980 We cared.
00:35:35.420 When somebody said,
00:35:36.340 how are you?
00:35:37.100 We actually wanted the answer.
00:35:39.980 We would hug strangers,
00:35:41.980 ask them, talk to them.
00:35:44.140 It's the last time you saw that.
00:35:46.500 You're listening to the best
00:35:47.740 of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:35:48.820 It is September 11th, 2023.
00:35:54.920 22 years ago,
00:35:56.660 America changed forever.
00:35:59.000 And I don't think our children
00:36:02.140 can even begin to understand
00:36:05.080 how different of a country
00:36:06.600 we were before September 11th.
00:36:10.280 We've just completely changed.
00:36:13.660 And some real reflection
00:36:17.260 should be done by all of us
00:36:20.080 on what we've done since then.
00:36:23.680 But I want to today
00:36:24.660 take you back to September 11th.
00:36:28.360 And Dave Isay from StoryCorps,
00:36:30.400 he is with us now.
00:36:31.560 Hi, Dave.
00:36:33.400 Glenn, hi.
00:36:34.260 How you doing?
00:36:35.140 Very good.
00:36:36.180 You know,
00:36:36.600 I am proud that we're friends.
00:36:41.140 I hate to use proud
00:36:43.060 because it's one of the
00:36:44.500 seven deadly sins.
00:36:45.760 But I'm actually really proud
00:36:48.180 that we're friends, Dave.
00:36:49.200 You are one of the more honest,
00:36:51.620 forthright,
00:36:52.920 and caring individuals.
00:36:55.580 And I don't know your politics,
00:36:57.120 but I know you do a lot of stuff
00:36:58.640 with NPR and PBS.
00:37:02.300 And, you know,
00:37:02.940 generally those people don't like me.
00:37:05.660 But you've always been,
00:37:07.620 you've always looked for a way
00:37:10.640 to come together
00:37:12.200 as we did
00:37:13.620 on 9-11 and 9-12
00:37:16.200 so many years ago.
00:37:18.220 So thank you for that, Dave.
00:37:19.600 Thanks for giving me the opportunity
00:37:20.980 to be your friend.
00:37:23.400 Well, it was never in question.
00:37:26.200 You know,
00:37:26.520 I think, you know,
00:37:28.400 we've known each other for a while now
00:37:29.740 and we had each other from hello.
00:37:32.300 You know,
00:37:32.520 and I think we both
00:37:33.440 we both really love this country deeply
00:37:36.280 and care about the country deeply
00:37:38.400 and are patriots.
00:37:41.940 And I also feel like
00:37:43.540 I've gotten to know your audience
00:37:45.140 over these years.
00:37:46.800 And it's a privilege
00:37:47.660 to know them as well.
00:37:49.060 And thank you for having me on.
00:37:50.960 You bet.
00:37:51.580 So, Dave,
00:37:52.420 in case you don't know,
00:37:53.560 if you've ever listened to NPR,
00:37:55.780 you might have heard of StoryCorps.
00:37:57.280 And he goes out
00:37:57.980 and they collect stories
00:37:59.100 for the National Archives
00:38:00.640 and collects all of the different stories
00:38:03.660 of what people remember,
00:38:05.880 what they did.
00:38:07.520 And it's a snapshot
00:38:09.020 into the American psyche
00:38:10.920 and into time.
00:38:13.080 And you're going to share something
00:38:15.100 from 9-11.
00:38:17.000 How,
00:38:17.480 when were these recorded?
00:38:20.600 So these,
00:38:21.620 so we've been around
00:38:23.380 for about 20 years.
00:38:25.060 And yeah,
00:38:25.480 I think it's a snapshot in time.
00:38:27.080 I also think it's kind of collecting
00:38:28.860 the wisdom of humanity.
00:38:30.640 And, you know,
00:38:31.040 the way StoryCorps works
00:38:32.260 is it's two people
00:38:33.440 who come to a booth.
00:38:35.040 We've had about 700,000 people do this.
00:38:37.280 So you come with your grandmother,
00:38:39.320 your mom,
00:38:39.800 and you honor her
00:38:40.700 by looking in her eye
00:38:42.000 and ask her about her life.
00:38:44.640 And we sometimes do
00:38:46.940 big collections of stories
00:38:49.020 when it's important,
00:38:50.600 like post-9-11 vets 0.85
00:38:51.940 and their families.
00:38:52.620 The first initiative,
00:38:55.000 we call those initiatives
00:38:55.900 that we did,
00:38:56.520 was with 9-11 families.
00:38:58.340 Wow.
00:38:58.480 And everyone who lost
00:38:59.480 a loved one on September 11th
00:39:01.100 comes to StoryCorps
00:39:02.180 to leave a record
00:39:03.440 of their lives.
00:39:04.440 And while StoryCorps
00:39:05.480 is usually two people,
00:39:07.620 with 9-11,
00:39:08.760 sometimes people come
00:39:09.920 by themselves.
00:39:11.580 And I think we're going to listen
00:39:12.840 to one of those stories.
00:39:13.780 Yeah.
00:39:14.440 When they come by themselves,
00:39:16.360 it's someone who works
00:39:17.840 for StoryCorps
00:39:18.500 who interviews them.
00:39:19.860 Sorry, Glenn.
00:39:20.300 Go ahead.
00:39:20.400 That's all right.
00:39:20.880 It's Beverly Eckert.
00:39:23.000 Can you tell us a little bit
00:39:24.200 about her before we hear?
00:39:26.520 Sure.
00:39:27.260 So this story
00:39:28.960 that we're about to hear
00:39:30.420 takes place 22 years
00:39:31.940 and one hour ago.
00:39:34.120 Beverly Eckert's husband,
00:39:35.700 Sean Rooney,
00:39:36.360 was in the South Tower
00:39:37.420 of the World Trade Center
00:39:38.460 when United Flight 175
00:39:40.600 struck the building.
00:39:42.360 And while he was trying
00:39:43.400 to make his way
00:39:44.040 to the roof
00:39:44.600 of the World Trade Center,
00:39:46.460 he called his wife,
00:39:47.660 Sean called his wife,
00:39:48.540 Beverly.
00:39:49.160 Okay.
00:39:49.460 And she came to StoryCorps
00:39:51.080 to remember
00:39:51.480 their final conversation.
00:39:52.860 Here it is.
00:39:53.540 Sean had warm brown eyes
00:39:54.860 and dark curly hair.
00:39:56.800 And he was a good hugger.
00:39:59.760 We met when we were only 16
00:40:01.820 at a high school dance.
00:40:04.360 When he died,
00:40:05.200 we were 50.
00:40:07.800 It was about 9.30 a.m.
00:40:09.120 when he called.
00:40:10.260 And he told me
00:40:10.840 he was on the 105th floor
00:40:12.440 and he'd been trying
00:40:13.620 to find a way out.
00:40:15.900 And he told me
00:40:16.720 that he hadn't had any success
00:40:18.560 and now the stairwell
00:40:19.740 was full of smoke.
00:40:21.700 I asked if it hurt
00:40:22.940 for him to breathe.
00:40:24.420 And he paused for a moment
00:40:25.480 and then said,
00:40:26.480 no.
00:40:27.420 He loved me enough to lie.
00:40:30.300 We stopped talking
00:40:31.220 about escape routes
00:40:32.140 and then we just began
00:40:33.780 talking about
00:40:34.500 all the happiness
00:40:35.120 we shared
00:40:35.820 during our lives together.
00:40:37.840 I told him
00:40:38.700 that I wanted
00:40:39.060 to be there with him.
00:40:41.360 But he said,
00:40:42.200 no, no.
00:40:42.980 He wanted me
00:40:43.620 to live a full life.
00:40:46.340 And as the smoke
00:40:47.720 got thicker,
00:40:48.280 he just kept whispering
00:40:49.240 I love you
00:40:49.940 over and over.
00:40:51.640 I just wanted
00:40:53.040 to crawl through
00:40:53.660 the phone lines
00:40:54.440 to him
00:40:54.900 and hold him
00:40:55.940 one last time.
00:41:00.220 Then I heard
00:41:00.960 a sharp crack
00:41:01.920 followed by
00:41:03.120 the sound
00:41:04.100 of an avalanche.
00:41:05.660 It was the building
00:41:06.340 beginning to collapse.
00:41:08.420 I called his name
00:41:09.220 into the phone
00:41:10.340 over and over.
00:41:12.220 Then I just sat there
00:41:13.760 pressing the phone
00:41:15.460 to my heart.
00:41:16.100 I think about
00:41:18.580 that last half hour
00:41:19.420 with Sean
00:41:19.860 all the time.
00:41:21.360 I remember how
00:41:22.100 I didn't want
00:41:23.300 that day to end
00:41:24.380 terrible as it was.
00:41:26.140 I didn't want
00:41:26.740 to go to sleep
00:41:27.340 because as long
00:41:28.060 as I was awake
00:41:28.840 it was still a day
00:41:30.160 that I'd shared
00:41:30.960 with Sean.
00:41:32.020 You know,
00:41:32.320 and he kissed me
00:41:32.880 goodbye before
00:41:33.520 leaving for work.
00:41:34.480 I could still say
00:41:35.300 that was just
00:41:36.000 a little while ago.
00:41:36.820 That was only
00:41:37.160 this morning.
00:41:37.680 and I just
00:41:41.220 think of myself
00:41:43.380 as living life
00:41:44.600 for both of us
00:41:45.180 now.
00:41:46.340 And I like
00:41:48.160 to think that
00:41:48.780 Sean would be
00:41:49.560 proud of me.
00:41:52.280 Holy cow. 0.89
00:41:54.160 How many people
00:41:55.080 I mean
00:41:56.940 how many people
00:41:58.680 on your staff
00:41:59.760 prompted
00:42:02.440 these stories
00:42:03.220 from people?
00:42:03.800 I mean
00:42:04.100 that must have
00:42:04.720 been
00:42:05.160 beautiful
00:42:06.560 and
00:42:07.540 just
00:42:08.460 heart-wrenching.
00:42:12.340 Well,
00:42:12.980 it's a
00:42:13.500 you know
00:42:14.100 story core
00:42:14.840 and especially
00:42:16.680 you know
00:42:17.100 this initiative
00:42:17.780 or you know
00:42:18.620 with vets
00:42:19.440 a lot of these
00:42:20.060 you know
00:42:20.500 life is hard.
00:42:22.000 It's a very
00:42:22.560 very difficult job.
00:42:24.280 And again
00:42:24.900 you know
00:42:25.180 most people
00:42:25.820 are pairs
00:42:27.240 when they come
00:42:27.700 to the booth
00:42:28.100 and I have
00:42:28.480 a kind of
00:42:28.980 an even more
00:42:30.320 tragic ending
00:42:31.100 to this story
00:42:31.920 which is that
00:42:33.420 Beverly was
00:42:35.040 on flight
00:42:35.640 3407
00:42:36.680 to Buffalo
00:42:38.200 in 2010
00:42:40.260 to commemorate
00:42:41.060 Sean's birthday
00:42:41.740 and died
00:42:42.240 in that plane crash.
00:42:44.140 Oh my God.
00:42:45.720 Do they have
00:42:46.400 children?
00:42:48.420 They did not
00:42:49.280 have children.
00:42:50.720 They did not
00:42:51.540 have children.
00:42:52.580 So yeah
00:42:53.840 no it's
00:42:54.420 hard on staff
00:42:55.220 and you know
00:42:55.620 when
00:42:55.800 in the intro
00:42:57.040 to the segment
00:42:57.580 you talked about
00:42:58.200 how life was
00:42:58.760 different before
00:42:59.640 September 11th
00:43:00.680 which is true.
00:43:01.920 but you know
00:43:02.860 life is also
00:43:03.640 different
00:43:04.120 and in the
00:43:05.380 on September 11th
00:43:06.820 and September 12th
00:43:07.820 and the weeks after
00:43:08.580 I think you were
00:43:09.320 in Connecticut
00:43:09.800 then I don't
00:43:10.920 I was in Tampa
00:43:11.760 I was in Tampa
00:43:12.640 Florida
00:43:13.000 you were in Tampa
00:43:13.680 yeah yeah
00:43:14.200 but I
00:43:15.240 and I don't know
00:43:15.780 if it was true
00:43:16.300 in Tampa
00:43:16.780 but you know
00:43:17.900 after September 11th
00:43:19.920 for two weeks
00:43:20.840 for 10 days
00:43:22.140 for one week
00:43:22.980 we saw each other
00:43:24.340 as Americans
00:43:24.960 oh no I think
00:43:26.500 we knew we belonged
00:43:27.440 to one another
00:43:28.040 yeah I think
00:43:29.020 we saw each other
00:43:30.160 as people
00:43:31.020 as humans
00:43:32.840 as brothers
00:43:33.540 and sisters
00:43:34.240 it was
00:43:34.680 you know
00:43:35.480 we loved strangers
00:43:36.620 we loved our neighbors
00:43:37.780 yeah
00:43:38.260 we would stop
00:43:39.740 I remember
00:43:40.420 Stu and I
00:43:41.220 were just talking
00:43:41.660 about this last week
00:43:42.480 we were at
00:43:43.840 the Outback Steakhouse
00:43:45.400 that night
00:43:46.200 yeah
00:43:46.660 and it had just been
00:43:48.200 you know
00:43:48.860 the day everybody had
00:43:50.320 and we went out
00:43:51.460 into the parking lot
00:43:52.200 and there was somebody
00:43:52.740 that we didn't know
00:43:53.660 we had never
00:43:54.280 seen before
00:43:55.740 and they were just
00:43:57.060 standing there
00:43:57.900 kind of dazed
00:43:58.720 and we went over
00:43:59.980 and talked to them
00:44:00.700 and hugged them
00:44:01.480 and I mean
00:44:02.700 it was
00:44:04.660 for as horrible
00:44:06.500 as that was
00:44:07.880 it was
00:44:08.920 the very next day
00:44:11.180 and later
00:44:11.700 in that afternoon
00:44:12.500 it was one of the most
00:44:14.560 beautiful times
00:44:15.600 I've ever seen
00:44:16.320 in America
00:44:16.880 ever
00:44:19.140 I was in New York
00:44:20.180 I feel the same way
00:44:21.760 I mean we
00:44:22.560 saw the truth
00:44:24.000 of who we are
00:44:25.400 and how lucky
00:44:25.860 we are to be alive
00:44:26.680 and how precious life is
00:44:27.940 and how all of our lives
00:44:29.000 matter
00:44:29.360 equally and infinitely
00:44:30.920 I mean we were
00:44:31.640 we were Americans
00:44:32.460 you know
00:44:32.940 and the question
00:44:33.560 then we get to the point
00:44:35.360 the part that
00:44:36.180 that you said
00:44:36.840 about how much
00:44:37.420 things have changed
00:44:38.200 because it lasted
00:44:39.580 10 days or 2 weeks
00:44:41.100 and how can we
00:44:42.420 get that back again
00:44:43.320 so Dave
00:44:44.320 would you join me
00:44:45.160 again tomorrow
00:44:45.960 I know you have
00:44:46.400 another clip
00:44:46.920 but I'd love to have
00:44:47.560 you back tomorrow
00:44:48.280 because tomorrow
00:44:49.680 is the anniversary
00:44:50.880 of something
00:44:51.580 that we called
00:44:52.700 the 912 project
00:44:54.040 and it was
00:44:56.880 it was
00:44:57.900 trying to remind people
00:44:59.380 who we were
00:45:00.420 on 912
00:45:02.260 and that we
00:45:03.720 need to serve
00:45:04.920 one another
00:45:05.460 and be those kinds
00:45:06.740 of people
00:45:07.080 and I'm going to do
00:45:07.600 something on that
00:45:08.520 tomorrow
00:45:08.900 and I'd love to have
00:45:09.560 you back
00:45:09.980 and share something
00:45:11.700 that you know
00:45:12.500 where people are
00:45:13.400 coming together
00:45:14.280 that are
00:45:14.780 because that's
00:45:15.480 your current
00:45:16.220 project now
00:45:17.680 at least
00:45:18.520 with this audience
00:45:20.380 is you're trying
00:45:21.200 to show people
00:45:23.460 in different audiences
00:45:24.660 how people
00:45:26.860 can come together
00:45:28.120 and they can
00:45:30.020 live side by side
00:45:30.840 that we're not
00:45:31.640 all that different
00:45:32.580 doesn't mean
00:45:33.120 that there isn't
00:45:33.720 evil out there
00:45:34.480 and there isn't
00:45:35.020 things we stand up
00:45:35.840 for but
00:45:36.220 that we're people
00:45:38.740 we're still
00:45:39.820 brothers and sisters
00:45:41.000 exactly
00:45:43.220 and most people
00:45:44.120 you know
00:45:44.800 there is evil
00:45:46.340 out there
00:45:46.800 but I mean
00:45:47.920 you know this
00:45:48.500 Glenn
00:45:48.720 I mean
00:45:48.980 most people
00:45:49.720 are good
00:45:50.200 I know
00:45:50.780 no matter
00:45:51.880 what their
00:45:52.320 politics are
00:45:53.080 most people
00:45:53.600 are good
00:45:53.900 and we've
