The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Kimberly Fletcher ｜ 6⧸23⧸23

00:00:00.000 I think the biggest story, uh, is it too much a stretch to say it's maybe top ten's biggest stories, uh, in our lifetime? Political stories, probably top five?

00:00:15.320 I mean, uh, it depends on how it turns out, obviously. We don't have all the information we need, but we have more than I ever thought we'd get.

00:00:22.100 Yeah, but it depends on how it turns out. If nothing happens, then America is doomed to just absolute corruption and rot.

00:00:31.420 If something happens, it means the president could be removed from office legitimately for something that nobody should be able to argue against.

00:00:40.900 Taking money from an enemy state, that's kind of a big deal.

00:00:44.900 Yeah. We're talking about the, um, the Hunter Biden, uh, testimony that was released yesterday, and, uh, it shows, I mean, not only the smoking gun, but the body, you know, the handwritten plan.

00:01:00.400 I'm gonna kill him and shoot him in the head, and you'll find the gun here, and I really did it, it's not a fake. 0.95

00:01:08.280 In fact, here's a picture of me doing it. That's the kind of evidence they have now on Hunter and Joe Biden. 1.00

00:01:16.820 This isn't about Hunter Biden. This is about Joe Biden.

00:01:21.200 Uh, we talk about that and so much more on today's podcast.

00:01:24.420 By the way, on Saturday, Bridget Phetasy is on my one-on-one podcast, and on Sunday, a new pilot podcast on history.

00:01:34.420 Putting things into perspective, how did we get here? An honest history, an honest look at experts.

00:01:42.820 How did we go from a country that would take risks?

00:01:47.780 I'm gonna build a submarine and go down to the bottom of the ocean and look at the Titanic.

00:01:52.660 All right, dude, I don't think that sounds like a good idea, especially with the PlayStation controller as, you know, your steering wheel, but whatever.

00:02:00.120 How did we go from a country that would allow that and would look at the Amelia Earhart's and say, that's great, to a country saying, I don't know, the country should, the government should protect.

00:02:13.800 The government should have laws to stop these people from taking those risks.

00:02:17.880 No!

00:02:19.700 Experts is the answer.

00:02:22.260 Experts is the answer of why everything has changed.

00:02:25.240 And we begin with the first pilot episode of how we got here, Honest History.

00:02:33.620 It'll be in the podcast feed on Sunday.

00:02:36.680 You don't want to miss it.

00:02:38.560 Today's podcast brought to you by Jace Medical.

00:02:41.480 I love this company because they have solved something for me.

00:02:45.980 And I don't know about, you know, other people who prepare for what might be coming.

00:02:50.780 But I'm very concerned, and you should be too, about supply disruptions.

00:02:56.160 You know, we have a problem in our supply chain, and your medicine could be gone easily.

00:03:04.400 And, you know, things that you wouldn't even think about, your heart medicine or your blood pressure medicine, anything like that.

00:03:10.860 If you're taking any kind of antidepressant, you don't think there's going to be a run on that or a problem with that.

00:03:16.840 But there will be if the supply chain breaks down.

00:03:20.800 That's why Jace Medical is here, Jace Daily.

00:03:24.700 It's a prescription supply service that allows you to get up to a 12-month backup supply of your prescription medication.

00:03:33.680 All of the things, antibiotics, cholesterol, diabetes, heart health, blood pressure, mental health, all of it.

00:03:41.360 I want you to find out all about this and see if it's right for you and your family.

00:03:46.000 If you want to be prepared, go to jacemedical.com, J-A-S-E medical.com.

00:04:03.900 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:04:07.740 I have been recording the book all this week in all of my spare time, and it's coming out in July, and it's called Dark Future.

00:04:21.760 And it is, I think this is the largest book we've ever written.

00:04:26.520 It's 511 pages.

00:04:27.900 But I think, gosh, maybe the last hundred pages are footnotes.

00:04:35.660 But it is, you know, when you write a book, you write it, and then you put it to rest really by, let's say it's June now.

00:04:47.240 We probably had it.

00:04:48.140 But Lion's Share finished in November, early December, but then it has to go into a period of rewrites and keeping up with the time, making sure we do all of the little additions on what has happened.

00:05:03.460 So, you know, you're seven months away from it, and I've been reading it all this week, and it is so powerful.

00:05:14.300 And I can't believe the timing of some of the books that we write when they come out.

00:05:21.740 It is, I was concerned that so much has happened, but it now, I'm glad that some of this stuff has happened, because you will understand it.

00:05:33.120 What you're seeing, you'll understand.

00:05:36.800 So, anyway, so I've been doing that this week to have it ready for you.

00:05:41.800 And I want you to know, just to prove to you that I'm not saying this for money, I make more money on the audio book, and I'd love you to get the audio book.

00:05:53.420 I've worked hard on it, and it's very funny and has a lot of ad lib in it that the book doesn't have.

00:05:59.520 But buy the paperback or the hardback when it comes out.

00:06:03.860 You have to have a paper version of this, and I urge you to use the footnotes.

00:06:09.420 I urge you to do your own homework.

00:06:10.940 You will see in this book, if we don't truly, if you don't truly understand this, we don't have a chance.

00:06:21.080 Because in the world, honestly, this is probably the most powerful audience in America, the most active audience.

00:06:32.580 But you are probably the best educated on the Great Reset over any other group in the world.

00:06:43.080 It's really up to you to understand it and teach it and share it with others.

00:06:47.880 Dark Future, you can get it now at Amazon or wherever books are sold.

00:06:52.340 Now, I want to talk to you about something that happened with the IRS whistleblowers yesterday.

00:06:59.300 Testimony heard at the House Committee on Ways and Means, attesting to the Department of Justice,

00:07:06.220 is hamstringing the U.S. Attorney David Weiss and his ability to pursue the Hunter Biden case.

00:07:14.300 The whistleblowers, Gary Shapely, he led the IRS investigation on the Hunter Biden case.

00:07:21.220 The case was codenamed Sportsman.

00:07:25.440 I don't know how you put him as a sport.

00:07:27.800 Anyway, as well as one of his subordinate agents, name undisclosed.

00:07:32.700 I'm going to just give you a couple of things.

00:07:35.480 I'm going to give you the top 10 things that we learned yesterday from just the news.

00:07:43.220 But I want to go to where it is.

00:07:46.360 Here it is.

00:07:47.500 A WhatsApp message connected to Joe Biden and Hunter Biden's business deal.

00:07:54.460 Now, I don't know why we haven't seen this before.

00:08:04.020 The second unnamed whistleblower said that there was a WhatsApp message found where Hunter Biden mentioned his father,

00:08:12.700 President Joe Biden, in the context of business deals.

00:08:17.480 Now, remember, I had nothing to do.

00:08:20.540 I didn't know about my son's business.

00:08:22.640 And we've told you that's impossible.

00:08:24.560 It is impossible.

00:08:25.760 And we've shown you circumstantial evidence.

00:08:28.840 OK.

00:08:30.000 But in the WhatsApp message, here's what he says.

00:08:37.380 And this the FBI and IRS had July 30th, 2017.

00:08:44.600 Biden says to Henry Zhao, one of his Chinese affiliates, guy who's doing business with Jason,

00:08:55.080 I want to bring you in because you're chief researcher and I've been so busy on the book.

00:08:58.420 I want to make sure that you clarify, make sure that I'm right on everything.

00:09:02.760 Henry Zhao is the guy who is Communist Party affiliated.

00:09:06.980 Right.

00:09:07.480 OK.

00:09:07.720 And this is the I can't remember the name of the company, CFC.

00:09:14.220 Yes.

00:09:14.540 Which was that was I guess they're kind of like an energy type company.

00:09:20.640 Right.

00:09:20.900 But it's it's a wholly owned subsidiary of the Chinese government.

00:09:25.040 OK.

00:09:25.960 And the contact was a guy in the Communist Party, Henry Zhao.

00:09:32.180 And this is what Hunter Biden wrote, quote, I am sitting here with my father and we would

00:09:41.760 like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled.

00:09:46.640 Now, it goes on.

00:09:47.980 But I think that's enough.

00:09:51.400 Don't you?

00:09:53.360 I'm sitting here with my father, not the big guy.

00:09:58.760 You know, he's become very spiritual.

00:10:01.020 Maybe he was talking about his father in heaven.

00:10:03.360 I am sitting here in prayer with my father in heaven.

00:10:07.920 And he's wondering why the commitment, you know, to some of those commandments has not

00:10:14.500 yet been fulfilled.

00:10:15.860 Maybe that's the explanation.

00:10:18.280 He says, tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand.

00:10:25.540 And now means tonight and Z if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than

00:10:34.940 you saying or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and

00:10:43.040 every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following

00:10:51.380 my direction.

00:10:53.060 I'm sitting here waiting for the call with my father in heaven.

00:10:59.660 Or as he wrote, he left the in heaven part out.

00:11:02.300 I'm sitting here waiting for the call with my father.

00:11:06.200 I mean, I am.

00:11:10.700 I was very, very suspicious of and I would say knew that Joe Biden committed crimes like

00:11:19.740 this.

00:11:20.140 And this is not a surprise.

00:11:21.900 I am surprised they were this blatant with it.

00:11:25.320 I am shocked that this message actually exists.

00:11:28.960 This is Hunter Biden blatantly blurting out everything we've been accusing him of.

00:11:35.240 It's happening.

00:11:36.520 It's it.

00:11:37.220 This is real, right?

00:11:38.380 Like, honestly, I went back and forth 20 times yesterday going like this is this is it?

00:11:43.120 Did someone say they saw this message?

00:11:45.580 Did is this is one of those things that like it turned up on the Internet?

00:11:48.920 We can't explain why this is real, Jason, right?

00:11:51.700 Like, there's no question about it.

00:11:53.280 This is not only real, but let me tell you this.

00:11:56.240 The FBI and this is in the first couple pages of this report.

00:11:59.940 The report is like 250 pages.

00:12:02.480 And thank God for you, Jason, for reading. 0.98

00:12:04.680 I'm always the schmuck, right? 0.97

00:12:05.800 Yeah, I know. 0.90

00:12:06.940 The FBI authenticated all of this in November 2019.

00:12:14.000 Now, just think about what has happened.

00:12:15.300 What happened after that?

00:12:16.320 That's that's a year before the election.

00:12:18.080 That's a year before the laptop goes out.

00:12:21.560 They verified the FBI.

00:12:25.240 We now know verified that that laptop was real a year before anyone even heard the word Hunter laptop.

00:12:35.340 But what did they do to social media companies like Facebook right after this?

00:12:40.020 They went to places like Facebook and said, hey, there might be some Russian disinformation, you know, that might be coming your way soon.

00:12:47.420 Just want to put it on your radar.

00:12:48.760 And that eventually led to all of the blacklisting and, you know, banning of all that information, like the New York Post article.

00:12:55.680 This is unbelievable.

00:12:57.360 Absolutely unbelievable.

00:12:58.900 What is what is truly, truly an act of treason toward freedom?

00:13:07.140 Freedom is the press.

00:13:10.820 Not raising hell over this.

00:13:14.360 Yeah.

00:13:14.860 OK, this is this is the smoking gun, the smoke, the little smudged bullet in the wall.

00:13:23.280 This is all of it.

00:13:25.200 This is all of it.

00:13:27.040 And for them not to take this now and say, because here's the problem.

00:13:31.740 Only half the country cares.

00:13:33.640 Right.

00:13:34.200 And until you get the other half to care, nothing's going to happen.

00:13:38.140 But if ABC, NBC, boy, that would be horrible if people started protesting the mouse house because ABC only moves when anybody threatens the mouse house, the actual park.

00:13:51.720 You're saying I'm going to picket your park.

00:13:54.800 They go crazy.

00:13:56.960 They don't care about the movie or anything.

00:13:58.880 They care about the parks.

00:14:02.020 So I'd hate to see somebody organize a really lasting long term and smart picketing of those parks to get ABC to actually start to tell the truth.

00:14:15.680 The fact that they just that this isn't the lead and nonstop story of the year.

00:14:27.420 Yeah, because it's not only this message.

00:14:29.960 You know, we've seen the laptop.

00:14:31.320 We've seen tons of stuff on there.

00:14:32.740 That was a real problem.

00:14:33.960 The reason we're seeing this message today is because the whistleblower said they had these messages and they were blocked from trying to investigate them.

00:14:43.260 Yes.

00:14:43.660 So so listen to the whole thing.

00:14:45.440 Listen, there's there's other things.

00:14:46.980 Biden met CEFC Chinese business client of Hunter.

00:14:50.920 Did you know that?

00:14:51.600 He didn't know anything about it.

00:14:52.700 He meets this guy.

00:14:55.880 Shapely recalled Rob Walker, a business associate of Hunter, describing a meeting that Joe Biden attended with the Chinese company.

00:15:04.540 Walker went on to describe an instance in which the former vice president showed up at a CFC meeting.

00:15:11.380 Walker said we we were at the Four Seasons.

00:15:15.040 We were having lunch and he stopped in and he said hello to everybody.

00:15:19.000 I don't think he drank water.

00:15:20.400 I think Hunter Biden said, I may be trying to start to start a company or try to do something with these guys.

00:15:26.160 And could you and I think he was like, I mean, I'm around and he'd show up.

00:15:33.680 He recounted.

00:15:34.680 So I don't know exactly what that means other than.

00:15:38.680 I want to do business and could you be involved?

00:15:41.700 But he didn't want to say that, you know, if if you're around, would you show up from time to time?

00:15:46.500 Is that what you get from that?

00:15:48.480 Yes.

00:15:48.880 Does that go on to say what he what the conclusions that that they drew from that meeting?

00:15:54.180 OK, so that that goes on even further in the testimony.

00:15:57.780 And the person, whoever's asking the asking the whistleblower question says, was it your impression that all of this was orchestrated between Joe and Hunter for this entire for him to show up at that time to make that presence to influence this meeting?

00:16:12.520 Was it your impression that this was orchestrated?

00:16:14.700 He answers.

00:16:15.400 Yes, that was my impression.

00:16:17.620 You know, this isn't just some nameless whistleblower.

00:16:20.520 There are those that are afraid.

00:16:22.480 This is a high ranking IRS official that was in charge of this investigation.

00:16:28.160 And as you will find out in a few minutes, he is blowing the whistle not only on what they found, but what they were not allowed to do.

00:16:38.640 All the stuff that this was.

00:16:40.140 Oh, no, we stayed out of it. 0.98

00:16:41.660 He is an absolute lie.

00:16:44.400 And we now have the FBI stating it and we have the FBI and we have the IRS stating it. 0.90

00:16:51.280 All of the agents that were involved in the actual work.

00:16:55.400 And at the IRS, the guy who is in charge of the agents who are doing the work.

00:17:00.660 Can I point out also is that we've been kind of critical on the FBI, as we should, I think, in a lot of things.

00:17:04.660 But this was very remarkable in this testimony because the rank and file FBI agents were just as pissed off as this whistleblower was in the testimony.

00:17:14.180 It's clear that something was happening at the higher level.

00:17:16.680 But the rank and file FBI agents were like, let us investigate.

00:17:19.680 Let us ask these questions.

00:17:21.420 I would love to see if they really cared.

00:17:24.180 They really cared.

00:17:25.040 I mean, I got to tell you, any of these guys lose their job and you are really coming out and blowing the whistle and you have the hard facts.

00:17:32.560 I think this audience would raise millions of dollars to make sure your family was taken care of.

00:17:37.660 You know what I mean?

00:17:38.700 You've got to do your patriotic duty.

00:17:41.300 You've got to speak out.

00:17:46.400 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:17:48.340 And we really want to thank you for listening.

00:17:50.120 What were we what were we doing one year ago at this very time?

00:18:01.300 Well, one year ago at this very time, we were we knew a little bit.

00:18:06.820 No, no.

00:18:08.260 You remember what we were doing?

00:18:09.240 Do I remember?

00:18:11.560 It is it is seared into my memory.

00:18:15.540 Not only was this such a big deal, the overturn of Roe versus Wade.

00:18:19.240 It was on the day, the interview with a guy who we had tried to talk to for a while.

00:18:27.560 I don't remember why the scheduling was tough or something.

00:18:30.100 And and I had said this guy is just, you know, just a horrible, you know, Soros kind of guy.

00:18:39.140 And he was running for something.

00:18:40.760 I don't even remember.

00:18:41.460 I don't remember his name.

00:18:42.500 I remember he was, I think, in Utah, in Provo, Utah, maybe.

00:18:48.720 And he was running.

00:18:50.020 And we saw the end of his career on this day.

00:18:55.080 Yes.

00:18:55.600 Now, actually, it was tomorrow.

00:18:56.860 That's why you kind of fooled me on this one, because the actual anniversary of Roe versus

00:18:59.660 tomorrow being overturned is tomorrow.

00:19:01.700 But it was on a Friday at this time when we when we heard about it.

00:19:06.820 And and that's when I said about this time, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I have

00:19:15.680 to switch to something else.

00:19:17.640 I have to cut you loose because the Supreme Court just came out with a Roe versus Wade ruling.

00:19:24.660 And he is the biggest story of my lifetime of our lifetime.

00:19:27.860 Yeah.

00:19:28.020 And he was like, well, until today, isn't it weird?

00:19:31.280 We're finding out about the Hunter Biden thing today.

00:19:35.140 Two of the biggest stories, I think, in my lifetime happening today.

00:19:40.660 That's weird. 0.99

00:19:41.500 Again, technically, it would be tomorrow because shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up to ruin 1.00

00:19:45.020 your little narrative. 1.00

00:19:45.980 I have.

00:19:46.340 You know what?

00:19:46.780 I have expert Hib Hibberson, who's just a regular man off the street.

00:19:52.400 Hib. 0.90

00:19:52.900 Am I right or am I right?

00:19:54.300 You're usually wrong today, though.

00:19:56.640 You're very wrong.

00:19:58.020 Thank you.

00:20:02.040 Yeah.

00:20:02.400 No, I mean, it is.

00:20:03.120 It's I mean, it's incredible.

00:20:04.460 I remember talking to this guy because he was it was he was trying to defend his.

00:20:09.640 Yeah.

00:20:09.960 His reputation.

00:20:10.780 His candidacy.

00:20:11.560 His reputation was a big moment for him.

00:20:13.700 But to not be able to recognize his bigger moment for 63 million dead children was a kind

00:20:19.180 of a weird stance to take in a state that I think values life.

00:20:25.540 You know, it was it was a weird stance to take.

00:20:27.460 And by the way, no longer employed.

00:20:30.280 That election did not work out.

00:20:31.940 Well, yeah, it didn't work.

00:20:32.940 It didn't work out well for him at all.

00:20:34.520 But anyway, this as we were just saying, this is the biggest decision, the biggest turnaround,

00:20:41.240 something that I never thought I would see in my lifetime.

00:20:46.460 Yep.

00:20:47.140 I said it on the air a hundred times that it's never going to happen.

00:20:50.840 You know, I mean, I want it to happen.

00:20:52.440 And I don't care.

00:20:53.460 I said over and over again, I don't care if it's never going to happen.

00:20:56.720 I'm still going to sit here and talk about it because it's the most probably the most important

00:21:00.000 issue.

00:21:00.520 Again, 63 million children not being alive.

00:21:03.080 That should be is bigger than any tax increase.

00:21:06.360 So technically, though, we have been talking about it, saying we never expected this in

00:21:11.000 our lifetime.

00:21:12.420 It in a way, what I think we met meant when we thought we'll never overturn, they would

00:21:19.920 never make abortion illegal from the Supreme Court.

00:21:25.020 And they didn't.

00:21:26.660 No, I honestly never thought they would overturn Roe versus Wade, meaning that it would be legal 0.98

00:21:32.280 in some states and not in others.

00:21:33.860 Exactly what we have now.

00:21:34.920 I didn't think I just, you know, I just was beaten down by it for so long.

00:21:39.160 We fought these battles.

00:21:40.080 We've made these arguments.

00:21:40.980 I think compelling arguments about, again, not some controversial issue about children

00:21:46.240 being alive, like a really basic thing that we should all kind of cheer on.

00:21:51.380 Hang on.

00:21:52.160 I would like to continue this, but the Supreme Court has just upheld Biden deportation policy.

00:21:59.860 Can you go and Jason, would you look at that real quick and and give me the Supreme Court

00:22:09.320 rejects the state challenge to Biden deportation policy?

00:22:14.540 Well, that's not really good.

00:22:16.300 I can know what that's all about.

00:22:19.300 There's something in my lifetime.

00:22:21.080 I never thought I would see the Supreme Court going.

00:22:23.960 Yep.

00:22:24.160 Let them all in.

00:22:24.820 I mean, I don't know the best what it says, but I know we'll go through it.

00:22:30.660 We'll go through it here for sure.

00:22:31.780 Well, but we're just, I mean, I think it's this one.

00:22:34.000 We've got a hype.

00:22:34.780 I think the ratings are up, but we get a hype.

00:22:36.880 We get the ratings way, way up.

00:22:38.680 If we just start saying, my gosh, Clarence, and you will only hear it here and others will

00:22:44.080 deny it.

00:22:44.760 Clarence Thomas just said, open the borders.

00:22:47.380 And more dog leprosy talk coming up.

00:22:52.800 If I remember this case correctly, and I have not gone through these recently, it's been

00:22:58.120 a little while, but this one, I think the big issue was standing.

00:23:02.000 It was whether it was Texas and Louisiana maybe.

00:23:05.100 Yeah, but I think that the states do have standing.

00:23:08.100 If you're not doing your job as the federal government, look at how the state of Texas

00:23:14.340 is changing.

00:23:15.420 And I don't mean in demographics.

00:23:17.620 I saw a deal that said, there are now more Hispanics in Texas than there are white people.

00:23:22.860 And I'm like, and?

00:23:24.280 I don't really care.

00:23:26.200 What I do care is that there are more Mexicans, more Venezuelans, more whatever, and actually

00:23:33.900 not as bad on the Venezuela thing because they actually left persecution.

00:23:38.440 They know how bad this stuff is.

00:23:40.660 Um, it's not people who want to become an American and they buy into our, our society.

00:23:50.180 They're here because they want to make money.

00:23:52.360 And that's, what's gotten us to where we are today is our love of money.

00:23:57.760 Um, we have to love our principles more.

00:24:01.440 Uh, and I, Texas is forever changed by what has happened in the last two years.

00:24:07.160 Texas is forever changed.

00:24:09.220 And if that's not in, if you don't have standing, the, the, just the ranchers in Texas, they don't

00:24:18.220 have standing of what's happening on their own property.

00:24:21.320 A lot of this comes down.

00:24:22.220 The reason I bring up the standing point is sort of a, uh, an interesting one is because

00:24:27.300 a lot of that just comes back to legal wranglings that not, I don't even, none of us are experts

00:24:32.920 on, right?

00:24:33.640 Well, the good thing is on the phone right now, I was just told Hib Jibberson, which

00:24:43.240 do I have that right?

00:24:46.180 Are you're, are you related to the guy with leprosy?

00:24:48.700 Yeah.

00:24:49.580 Why would he be related?

00:24:50.900 We have different last names.

00:24:52.140 Well, I know, but I didn't know if I had no idea.

00:24:56.020 Maybe it was, uh, you know, the, the, uh, Hispanic spelling of Jibberson and I was getting

00:25:04.220 it wrong because you would say Iberson, not Jibberson.

00:25:07.700 You were definitely getting it wrong.

00:25:10.800 And you sound, anyway, all right.

00:25:13.040 So you are an expert in, uh, standing in standing.

00:25:19.680 Yes.

00:25:20.240 Really?

00:25:20.840 Yes.

00:25:21.340 Not legal standing.

00:25:22.580 I just stand for long periods of time.

00:25:24.840 Okay.

00:25:25.100 And that has what to do with the Supreme court.

00:25:28.920 You know, I didn't arrange this interview.

00:25:30.220 I don't know why. 0.98

00:25:31.080 I don't know why I would be doing an interview about the Supreme court, but damn it. 0.98

00:25:34.680 I've got to talk to my producers about this. 0.93

00:25:36.980 I apologize, Mr. Jibberson.

00:25:38.720 Thank you so much.

00:25:39.720 Thank you.

00:25:40.200 All right.

00:25:40.640 I appreciate it.

00:25:41.260 I hope to be back on soon.

00:25:42.660 Well, I don't think so.

00:25:44.160 I'm really upset with my executive producer, Stu Braguier.

00:25:48.740 Why would you book that?

00:25:51.020 Well, I don't know.

00:25:51.780 He told me that it was an 8-1 decision and, uh, he was going to outline it, but apparently

00:25:57.580 who was the, I want to do that.

00:25:58.940 Who was the dissent?

00:25:59.940 Uh, Alito.

00:26:00.760 So, I mean, uh, you had even Clarence Thomas agreeing on this particular case.

00:26:05.940 Um, but of course, Alito has been really, uh, really, really good.

00:26:09.620 Uh, there's a, uh, a separate opinion joined by the conservatives, but it was everybody

00:26:15.420 except Alito, uh, overall on that particular case.

00:26:18.820 We'll get into, we can, we can go through it a little bit more, but I, and I'd like to

00:26:21.860 go through earlier this week.

00:26:23.280 I had pulled out the, I think it's the 18 cases or something yet to be decided by the

00:26:30.020 Supreme court.

00:26:30.620 Yeah.

00:26:30.840 And there's some pretty big ones in there.

00:26:32.620 There are some big ones.

00:26:34.120 Um, I, I'm kind of surprised we were seeing, I mean, I guess it's an 8-1 and sometimes they

00:26:38.800 usually put the 5-4s later in the term.

00:26:41.240 Um, the 8-1.

00:26:42.420 Yeah.

00:26:42.540 The 5-4s are the ones that they're like, uh, all right, we're all getting into our cars. 1.00

00:26:48.720 Right.

00:26:49.300 Really?

00:26:49.780 Yeah.

00:26:50.420 They like throw it out the window as they jam on the gas.

00:26:54.300 Meep, meep, there it is.

00:26:55.740 They like have a bag of sand and they put the, uh, the sand down and try to leave and then

00:26:59.860 the ball rolls after them as they go.

00:27:01.240 Um, the, uh, yeah, they, the, usually we weren't necessarily, uh, expecting that case, uh,

00:27:07.600 this early, but you know, I mean, they, this is what happened.

00:27:10.760 This is why this was such a shock.

00:27:12.140 When you go back to the one year versus Wade, everyone expected it to be on the last day

00:27:16.080 of the term.

00:27:16.580 And they're like, ah, now it's right now while we were in the middle of an interview.

00:27:20.740 Uh, so, you know, these things wind up not always being, uh, the most obvious when

00:27:26.220 it comes down to their timing, they, they have their own schedule.

00:27:28.880 They do it whenever they want to do it.

00:27:31.240 Um, yeah, there, you heard it.

00:27:33.660 The confession of the man who obviously leaked the, uh, decision last year.

00:27:40.240 He has some sort of inside information.

00:27:42.440 I think we all heard that.

00:27:44.040 The best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:27:50.900 We have, um, we have somebody on with us that, uh, is talking about something that is, uh,

00:27:57.500 is happening in Texas and, and maybe it can happen.

00:28:01.300 Oh, I don't know elsewhere.

00:28:03.920 Uh, it is, it's putting things back into alignment.

00:28:08.880 Uh, I want to, uh, bring on Kimberly Fletcher. 1.00

00:28:12.320 Uh, she is moms for America founder and president.

00:28:16.160 And Texas is passed a new law placing FCC standards on school libraries.

00:28:23.180 This is something that I've talked about for a while.

00:28:26.440 How come I cannot read it?

00:28:28.620 Remember there was a show.

00:28:29.520 You went white on me, Stu.

00:28:30.820 You were like, Oh my gosh.

00:28:32.500 And I don't mean white, your usual white. 0.95

00:28:34.520 I mean, all the blood drained from his face because I said, you know what?

00:28:39.080 Maybe I should just read it because if it's okay for the children, why would the FCC has,

00:28:44.120 have a problem with it?

00:28:45.020 Well, that's what Kimberly Fletcher and, uh, moms for America have done. 0.98

00:28:50.840 Welcome, Kim.

00:28:51.680 How are you?

00:28:52.880 Hi, I am.

00:28:53.960 I am great.

00:28:54.820 I really appreciate you talking about this because it's kind of a really big deal.

00:28:58.440 Oh, it's a really big deal.

00:28:59.860 And it's only aligning, uh, common sense.

00:29:04.140 It is only aligning and saying, look, if I can't say this on the radio, why, why can't I say that?

00:29:11.320 I can't say it because it's obscene.

00:29:14.720 So why can you say that in a classroom with my kids?

00:29:21.160 Well, and it's the same thing with the school boards too.

00:29:23.620 And that's, it was actually John Rich.

00:29:25.820 I have to give complete credit to John Rich.

00:29:28.220 Yes.

00:29:28.460 The country music singer.

00:29:29.660 He had reached out to me after an event last December and said, can we sit down and talk about how we can save kids together?

00:29:35.020 And I said, sure.

00:29:35.960 And so he talked about some of the things that he was pushing and promoting in Tennessee and some won and some didn't.

00:29:41.740 And one of them was the FCC standards.

00:29:43.920 And when he told me this, he's like, he's like, Kimberly, it just, I observed that they have all these restrictions for children to be, to have access to obscene material on the TV and on the radio, but we're shoving it in the classroom and in the books.

00:29:59.000 And he said, you know, if you can't show it on TV and you can't air on the radio, you shouldn't have it in the classroom.

00:30:03.940 I had literally about leaped off my seat and I was like, oh my gosh, this is a winning argument.

00:30:09.600 How can anybody disagree with me?

00:30:11.820 And so I said, you know what?

00:30:13.240 You didn't, weren't able to pass it in Tennessee.

00:30:14.880 We'll regroup on that.

00:30:16.080 But I said, Texas is in session now.

00:30:18.000 They're only in session every other year, which I think every state should do, but that's another story.

00:30:22.460 And this is a year, it's an off year.

00:30:24.480 So let's take it to Texas.

00:30:25.760 And so we did, and I went and I met with the legislatures and I was like, okay, who has the obscenity bills?

00:30:32.900 Because right now, every state across the country, all these representatives are wanting to pass parental rights, school choice, and obscenity bills.

00:30:41.000 And some of them are awful and some of them are good.

00:30:43.640 And so I said, let's sit down and let's look and see what we have.

00:30:46.020 So Jared Patterson had most of the obscenity bills.

00:30:48.800 And I said, well, let's look and see and find the best one.

00:30:51.500 And it was HB 900, which he labeled a Reader Act.

00:30:54.860 And it fits the FCC standards the most.

00:30:58.660 If you cannot have it on the radio or the TV, then it shouldn't be in the library, it shouldn't be in the books, and it shouldn't be in the curriculum.

00:31:06.220 So it holds those curriculum developers to a standard that the state school board reviews, and it holds the classroom materials to those same standards.

00:31:14.960 The Tennessee bill is actually my favorite that I want to be able to resurrect in Tennessee.

00:31:20.100 Okay, hang on, hang on.

00:31:21.220 Before you go there, before you go there, the bill in Texas has passed, correct?

00:31:26.020 It has.

00:31:26.920 It passed the House with 10 Democrats signing on that went through the Senate, thanks to Angela Paxton and a couple other amazing senators, state senators there.

00:31:37.160 And then the governor signed it on June 12th.

00:31:39.740 It is now law in the state of Texas.

00:31:41.140 Fantastic.

00:31:41.540 We have model legislation.

00:31:42.860 It is so exciting.

00:31:44.180 Yeah, fantastic.

00:31:45.140 And again, you're not banning books.

00:31:48.120 What you're doing is saying we have to normalize the standards, the standardization of what is appropriate in public settings and with public support.

00:32:03.780 The reason why I'm held to these FCC standards is because the government laid claim to the airwaves.

00:32:13.820 And so we are issued, radio stations are issued a frequency, and then you've got to build everything to broadcast on that frequency.

00:32:21.640 But the government owns all the frequencies.

00:32:24.500 So that's public airspace.

00:32:27.840 So public standards.

00:32:30.100 That's why I'm held, and I can't say things and do things on radio.

00:32:34.900 Some of them make sense.

00:32:36.200 Some of them don't.

00:32:37.160 But it's public standards.

00:32:39.800 How can the public standards be higher on radio, especially radio like this, that is geared towards adults and lower for the things that are in our curriculum for our kids?

00:32:53.820 Makes no sense.

00:32:55.280 No sense.

00:32:55.980 Well, you're absolutely right.

00:32:58.000 And that's the reason why it passed.

00:32:59.600 And there was definitely some serious obstruction and pushback.

00:33:04.400 But it passed because it's common sense.

00:33:06.660 The bill, an equivalent bill, has already gone through both houses in Louisiana, and it's on the governor's desk pending signature.

00:33:14.220 We have eight different states that we have introduced this to, including Idaho, Ohio, and several others.

00:33:19.260 And we are actively engaged in getting this passed in all 50 states.

00:33:23.660 And, Glenn, they're making our case for us because we have moms who are going into these school board meetings, and they're reading what their children are being exposed to.

00:33:31.400 Oh, I know.

00:33:31.920 They're telling them you can't say that.

00:33:33.560 They're turning off their microphone.

00:33:35.260 Some of them, they're being escorted out of the school board meeting.

00:33:38.200 And a couple of the moms actually got escorted out in handcuffs because they refused to stop reading what their children are being exposed to, trying to get attention. 0.96

00:33:47.240 And you know what they say?

00:33:48.620 It's on public TV.

00:33:50.240 So you can't say that here.

00:33:51.620 It's actually not on public TV.

00:33:54.520 It is on cable, public access.

00:33:59.480 That's different.

00:34:01.160 Cable is not regulated by the FCC.

00:34:05.480 Hmm.

00:34:06.400 Okay.

00:34:07.240 That's really good news.

00:34:08.920 Yeah.

00:34:09.460 I can tell.

00:34:10.380 Yeah, that's why HBO can run, you know, porn at night or whatever they want to run.

00:34:15.720 That's why you don't have, that's why the standards on NBC are higher on language and situations than they are on, you know, USA, because it's a cable network, not a broadcast cable does not involve airwaves.

00:34:34.140 So you can do whatever you want on cable.

00:34:36.720 I love this because now we can go back with even greater.

00:34:40.440 Actually, no, we can read this here.

00:34:42.440 But I am appalled at the kind of things that these children are being exposed to.

00:34:48.580 And we as moms had to do something that was actually tangible.

00:34:52.220 And what's so great about this passing in Texas is that we do have model legislation.

00:34:56.600 It has passed.

00:34:57.860 And in Texas, which is a really important state.

00:35:00.240 And now we can take this across the country and say it's already been passed.

00:35:03.740 It's already tested, been tested and tried and true.

00:35:07.660 So let's take this everywhere and give moms something where you can actually have a tangible tool to protect our kids in the classroom and in their schools. 1.00

00:35:16.920 John Rich needs an award for this.

00:35:18.960 I mean, he's a great guy.

00:35:21.720 I just love John.

00:35:22.760 Just love him.

00:35:24.260 And he needs an award for this.

00:35:25.960 This is a brilliant idea.

00:35:27.960 All right.

00:35:28.680 So I want to take you to Tennessee for a second.

00:35:32.100 That has not been passed.

00:35:34.120 But you say this was the best one?

00:35:36.640 It was the best one because it not just protected our children from the books and the curriculum, but it also protected them from digital learning, which is everything is kind of going to digital learning.

00:35:46.420 And I don't know if you remember, but a few years ago, it was about 10 years ago, they started the stay-at-school books.

00:35:52.660 And they had this great argument, well, they're not coming back and they're costly.

00:35:56.500 That's not why they were saying don't take them home.

00:35:58.700 They didn't want parents to see what they had.

00:36:00.920 Well, in 2020, parents saw everything that they were being exposed to.

00:36:03.760 And that was all digital learning.

00:36:05.360 And a lot of this curriculum is being pushed in that way to hide it and protect it.

00:36:09.400 And they're saying that the school board members can't even see it and review it because it's trademarked and it's proprietary information.

00:36:15.400 I'm like, you know what?

00:36:16.380 If the school board members can't see it and parents can't see it, you shouldn't have it.

00:36:19.600 Yeah.

00:36:19.740 Why are you buying something that you can't look at?

00:36:24.220 How is that possible?

00:36:25.820 And the parents can't look at it.

00:36:27.740 I'm paying for it with my tax dollars.

00:36:30.940 What do you mean I can't see it?

00:36:32.660 They should be kicked out.

00:36:34.460 Your salespeople, no room for you. 1.00

00:36:37.720 Sorry.

00:36:39.140 There's that common sense again.

00:36:40.900 And that's exactly what we're saying.

00:36:42.480 But the third thing that it protects our children from is adults.

00:36:46.800 If there is an adult in authority over the child, then it protects them from that, too.

00:36:51.680 That's what makes the Tennessee bill so strong.

00:36:53.420 Because they're bringing in these consultants from outside who are, a lot of times, from Planned Parenthood and other organizations like that, who are teaching these things to kids.

00:37:03.020 And they're confusing them.

00:37:04.820 They are, I mean, this is a political indoctrination is what it is.

00:37:09.300 It is.

00:37:09.780 And they're confused.

00:37:10.900 They don't even know their identity now.

00:37:12.820 They have whole entire curriculums on gender identity using the gender-bred person, which has now evolved to the gender unicorn because the gender-bred person was too manly.

00:37:22.520 I mean, you can't make this stuff up.

00:37:24.380 It's crazy.

00:37:25.280 And anybody who sees it would say it was crazy, which is why they're working so hard to hide it from the public.

00:37:31.760 So the Tennessee bill is great.

00:37:33.120 And we're going to regroup on it.

00:37:34.240 John and I both are going to fight for that one.

00:37:36.040 Okay.

00:37:36.200 Let me know how I can help you.

00:37:37.520 We have a lot of listeners in Tennessee.

00:37:38.840 And I'm sure our friends, you know, Ben Shapiro and others will help on that as well.

00:37:44.580 Now, the difference here in Texas is it doesn't apply to digital books?

00:37:55.940 It doesn't apply to digital learning and it doesn't apply to adult oversight.

00:38:01.660 So any adults that are – so a teacher, and we're specifically – we're not saying teachers because then all the teachers think, oh, my gosh, they're coming after me.

00:38:09.980 No, no, no.

00:38:10.440 We are saying that anyone who has an educational field, industry, if you will, has access to children in the curriculum, in the classroom, in the school, that they also have to follow that FCC standard because teachers are teaching this.

00:38:28.800 They're – not the bulk of them.

00:38:31.060 I know, I know.

00:38:31.500 But they are doing it, and they're heralding it.

00:38:34.520 And my daughter was telling me, Mom, you don't even have to go find them.

00:38:37.660 Just go to TikTok.

00:38:38.760 They're praising themselves for –

00:38:41.080 But how did that – did you make this case in Texas?

00:38:45.280 Because I don't understand.

00:38:46.440 I can't have a guest on my show who reads a digital book that's pornographic.

00:38:54.940 I can't.

00:38:56.260 That would be a violation of the rules.

00:38:58.420 The classroom or the area in our schools has to be looked at as the airwaves, and there are no exceptions to the rule.

00:39:12.740 There's nothing I can do that I can run through a processor, a microphone, a computer, anything that violates those FCC standards.

00:39:24.640 I can't do it.

00:39:25.540 So how could you allow a digital book or a teacher or somebody else coming in and violate those rules?

00:39:32.900 I can't do that.

00:39:34.780 Right.

00:39:35.140 That fouls all the common sense up and should be easy to fight.

00:39:39.680 It is.

00:39:41.600 We have, obviously, the ACLU is constantly attacking anything that anybody does that makes common sense.

00:39:48.300 One of the things that was considered when we were looking at the various different bills is which one is the one that has the best opportunity to pass, which is the start.

00:39:56.400 Yes.

00:39:56.920 And there are two additional bills that would follow the FCC standard more strictly that we are reaching out.

00:40:03.640 We're working with Representative Patterson and other members of the legislature for the next session.

00:40:09.320 But we're doing that in other states, too.

00:40:11.620 And Idaho is just we've got some great legislative friends in Idaho.

00:40:15.900 Right.

00:40:16.220 There are people who are so excited about this and they love the Tennessee bill and a lot of them do because it tackles that.

00:40:22.820 What's great about Texas is that we already have something that has passed, which means that all the legislators in the other states can look at that and say, oh, this one passed.

00:40:32.260 It went through all the legal, you know, checks and marks and everything to make sure that we have something.

00:40:37.260 So if we have to start here, great.

00:40:39.160 But then let's build from it and have two backup bills to go with it. 0.97

00:40:42.100 I think that's what we're working on right now.

00:40:44.180 I think that's excellent.

00:40:45.260 You need help pushing back teachers unions in some states like Utah, the teachers unions.

00:40:52.980 They are all in the Republican Party because it's a red state.

00:40:57.900 So you get these squishy.

00:41:00.160 It's like Texas.

00:41:00.900 You get squishy Republicans who are in the bag for the teachers unions.

00:41:05.620 Whoever is pushing back on you, please let me know.

00:41:08.400 Let us help you run some interference just through informing listeners of what's happening in their states.

00:41:14.380 And whatever you need, you and John are on absolutely a genius track.

00:41:23.580 Thank you.

00:41:24.760 Thank you.

00:41:25.760 All right.

00:41:27.200 That is Kimberly Fletcher.

00:41:29.240 She's Moms for America founder and president.

00:41:31.780 I'm telling you, these moms organizations, they make all the difference in the world. 1.00

00:41:36.600 Remember, Stu, it was like 2008.

00:41:39.840 And somebody said, somebody called in and said, look, I can't do anything because I'm just a mom.

00:41:45.740 You remember this?

00:41:46.420 Yeah.

00:41:46.540 And I just lost it.

00:41:48.920 And I said, stop saying that.

00:41:52.180 That is the hardest, most important job in the world.

00:41:57.300 A mom.

00:41:58.820 And it's going to be the mom.

00:42:00.440 How do you argue with moms? 1.00

00:42:02.320 You can't argue with moms. 0.90

00:42:04.500 Really?

00:42:05.580 You're going to have a bunch of dads come in and talk to teachers.

00:42:09.020 And teachers will say, the dads don't understand.

00:42:12.800 And you can get away with it.

00:42:16.020 Moms?

00:42:17.320 No.

00:42:18.960 You can't.

00:42:20.160 Everybody loves their mom.

00:42:22.060 I mean, well, most do.

00:42:23.120 Some of them really hate their mothers.

00:42:25.520 Kind of like Joe Biden's daughter hates him, you know, because of the whole shower thing in her diary.

00:42:30.680 But anyway, that's a different story.

00:42:33.380 Moms make all the difference. 1.00

00:42:35.200 Because you have the power and you're seeing it.

00:42:40.320 What was the turning point in this?

00:42:41.800 What was the turning point?

00:42:43.480 Moms going to parent-teacher meetings, PTA meetings, and school boards.

00:42:48.940 That's what changed this.

00:42:51.980 Join these moms groups because they are absolutely making a difference.

00:42:57.360 Huge difference.
