The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Kirk Cameron

00:00:00.040 Hey, welcome to Friday's podcast. You know, I did a lot of thinking yesterday because we were having a bad storm here at the ranch in the Mountain West, and I went to a friend's house, and by the time I left his house, everything had changed. It was bright and sunny and nice, and it looked like a completely different place.

00:00:18.500 That got me to thinking on my drive home through the farmlands that I live around, and I started the show with those reflections, and you don't want to miss it.

00:00:31.100 Also, we talked to Kirk Cameron. He's doing something special in libraries all across the nation. I want you to go to bravebooks.us, bravebooks.us, and find out where this is happening.

00:00:43.280 I urge you. There's a lot of things. You should really listen to this interview. There's a lot of things that have to be done in our local towns.

00:00:51.120 But we also talked about another crazy, crazy story about Barack Obama. We talked about the goings-on of Donald Trump and so much more all on today's podcast. Don't miss a second.

00:01:03.720 Brought to you by Relief Factor. If you're in pain, you know you've probably tried absolutely everything.

00:01:09.320 If you're in severe pain, you've probably been on all kinds of drugs and narcotics that just will whack you out.

00:01:17.780 That's no way to live your life. You know it, and I know it. I can't live my life that way.

00:01:23.220 How do I get out of pain? I tried all kinds of things for years. Went to all the best doctors.

00:01:29.220 My wife said, have you tried this thing called Relief Factor? And I'm like, honey, that's not going to work. It reduces inflammation.

00:01:34.180 I've got man strength pain, you know what I'm saying? And she wouldn't listen to me whine anymore if I wouldn't try everything.

00:01:40.700 And so I did, not thinking that it would work. Three weeks later, I get off it arrogantly because I just think, I'm just feeling better. It's not this stuff.

00:01:48.920 As soon as I stopped taking it, I mean, the pain just roared back.

00:01:52.920 I take it every day now. And I'm telling you, it's changed my life.

00:01:57.160 70% of the people who take it go on to order more.

00:01:59.720 It may not work for you, but it's worth a shot, isn't it?

00:02:03.920 ReliefFactor.com. That's ReliefFactor.com or 800, the number 4, Relief.

00:02:09.380 Here's today's podcast.

00:02:18.620 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:22.620 I was driving through the rain to visit a friend, and it was a powerful storm just coming down in buckets.

00:02:34.220 It was dark and stormy, and that was on the way there.

00:02:38.820 Then I went into my friend's house, and I came out about three hours later, and it was bright and beautiful,

00:02:47.180 and it looked like a completely different neighborhood.

00:02:49.120 But nothing had changed except the storm had stopped, and the clouds began to part.

00:02:56.640 On the way back, I was driving through this farming community.

00:03:01.660 As it was bright and sunny, I saw people no longer cowering or running into their homes or their stores or avoiding the storm.

00:03:09.040 But they were back to work as if nothing had happened, and they had recognized that the storm, the water that came from that storm, was a blessing.

00:03:20.540 That storm made it so we could go on growing and feeding and helping ourselves, our families, and others.

00:03:27.040 And as I was driving through the canyons, I began to think, and I got home, and I wrote some things down that I want to share with you.

00:03:38.260 Because this week has been both the best of weeks and the worst of weeks.

00:03:44.200 We have seen the lies that many of us knew were lies laid bare for the world to see,

00:03:50.520 and many Americans finally going, wait a minute, what?

00:03:55.480 We have seen the brave step forward with nothing to hide, yet a ton to fear.

00:04:03.360 But we've also seen the depths of man's depravity,

00:04:08.200 the arrogance of the elite,

00:04:10.520 and the corruption of justice.

00:04:12.540 We have witnessed the illusion of power.

00:04:18.940 So I wanted to take a minute today and just shatter that illusion

00:04:23.760 and remind you of the reality of who we are and what lies just ahead.

00:04:32.300 But first, I want you just to take a second and breathe.

00:04:36.480 Breathe deep.

00:04:38.000 And then breathe in the spirit of the brave leaders

00:04:43.740 who have carried us through the moments of triumph and uncertainty.

00:04:50.900 Breathe in Washington at Valley Forge.

00:04:55.980 Lincoln, who died to set men free.

00:05:01.020 Breathe in the spirit of FDR,

00:05:03.340 who fought the monsters overseas

00:05:06.040 that actually believed in inferior races and useless life.

00:05:11.400 He stood despite his wheelchair.

00:05:14.360 The very thing that made them believe he was weak and useless

00:05:18.180 made him strong and determined

00:05:21.120 to see our ship through the storm.

00:05:25.780 Breathe in the times we felt strength and hope

00:05:28.820 from JFK and Ronald Reagan

00:05:31.160 as the world inched closer to nuclear annihilation.

00:05:34.900 Breathe in the brave Americans like Martin Luther King

00:05:40.140 who dared to remind us of our highest ideals

00:05:43.800 that all men are created equal

00:05:46.180 and doing it while knowing it may cost him his life.

00:05:51.140 But knowing in the end it would set free

00:05:53.820 the powerful force of an entire race

00:05:56.560 and in doing so would smash the shackles of racism.

00:06:01.200 Racism of all involved.

00:06:03.100 White, black, brown, red, yellow.

00:06:08.940 Breathe in the spirits of their resilience

00:06:13.120 and their stories that remind us of the strength

00:06:15.900 we all harness when we stand in unity.

00:06:19.620 We're not strangers to adversity.

00:06:26.860 And yet in the face of overwhelming odds

00:06:30.040 we're renowned for rising from the ashes of defeat

00:06:33.520 stronger, wiser, and even more united.

00:06:37.400 Too many of us now doubt that this American unity

00:06:42.940 that we found in the rubble of Pearl Harbor

00:06:46.240 or the Twin Towers will be true again

00:06:48.800 as we deal with what approaches.

00:06:53.880 Do not doubt.

00:06:56.500 Do not fear.

00:06:58.200 The forces of darkness may feel powerful

00:07:02.100 and in charge right now

00:07:03.620 but they are merely the whispers

00:07:05.920 and the shadows

00:07:06.960 and the echoes of ancient lies.

00:07:11.120 They will be defeated again

00:07:13.180 but only when the truth

00:07:15.540 is no longer held captive by fear.

00:07:19.620 Our nation is the epitome of freedom

00:07:22.780 the birthplace of freedom

00:07:25.040 by being the birthplace of opportunity

00:07:27.440 a beacon for those seeking the liberty

00:07:30.380 to steer their own destiny.

00:07:34.440 The alluring prospect of freedom

00:07:36.800 is not just a lofty ideal

00:07:39.200 but it is a living testament

00:07:41.280 to the human spirit

00:07:42.760 one that stands antithetical

00:07:45.180 to the constraints of Marxism

00:07:47.620 and other failed ideas.

00:07:51.440 Our great country rebukes such a doctrine

00:07:54.360 that undermines the human essence

00:07:56.620 the inherent right to independence

00:07:59.020 the power to define one's own course.

00:08:04.180 We're a nation built

00:08:05.980 on the pillars of compassion and justice

00:08:08.540 yet in these trying times

00:08:11.500 we seem to forget that compassion

00:08:14.140 is our virtue

00:08:16.220 but it can be our vice

00:08:19.320 because if it's left unchecked

00:08:22.000 if compassion is detached

00:08:24.480 from eternal truths

00:08:25.780 this virtue will morph

00:08:27.840 into a weapon of mass destruction.

00:08:32.080 We have to strive to find a balance

00:08:34.840 nurturing empathy and compassion

00:08:37.640 while adhering to the truths

00:08:39.980 that have guided us thus far.

00:08:41.780 The freedom to carve our own path

00:08:44.980 also implies the responsibility

00:08:47.680 to contribute

00:08:49.180 to work

00:08:50.460 to strive for excellence

00:08:52.400 not just personal gain

00:08:54.280 but to uplift

00:08:55.560 our brothers and sisters.

00:08:57.520 The American dream

00:09:01.560 isn't solely about achieving

00:09:03.360 personal success

00:09:04.360 in fact I don't think

00:09:05.160 it's attached to that at all.

00:09:08.080 It's about charting your own course

00:09:10.220 and about lifting

00:09:11.080 all those around us

00:09:12.540 nurturing the collective good.

00:09:14.620 We will lose our path

00:09:19.160 if we don't recognize

00:09:21.020 that it is high time

00:09:22.900 that we restored

00:09:24.080 our self-evident truths

00:09:25.900 regarding gender

00:09:27.320 family

00:09:28.320 blind justice

00:09:29.940 integrity

00:09:30.640 and our basic human rights.

00:09:34.020 These principles

00:09:34.960 are the foundation

00:09:36.000 of our society

00:09:37.140 and if we reinstate them

00:09:39.500 we will pave the way

00:09:40.860 for the next great chapter

00:09:42.400 of the American narrative.

00:09:44.620 Freedom of speech

00:09:47.040 and thought

00:09:47.620 they're pillars

00:09:49.600 upon which our society rests.

00:09:52.480 The ability to question

00:09:53.800 to seek truth

00:09:55.580 to challenge norms

00:09:57.580 define our human nature.

00:10:00.500 Since birth

00:10:01.360 we as children

00:10:02.680 have an inherent curiosity

00:10:05.140 and that should never be

00:10:06.640 stifled or restricted.

00:10:09.300 Our capacity to ask

00:10:10.920 why

00:10:11.760 what

00:10:13.000 how

00:10:13.740 that is the thread

00:10:15.300 that weaves

00:10:16.000 the very fabric

00:10:17.160 of our being human

00:10:18.440 and our drive

00:10:19.900 to learn

00:10:20.660 explore

00:10:21.480 and grow.

00:10:22.640 we stand on the precipice

00:10:27.440 of demanding

00:10:28.460 and

00:10:29.020 times of trial

00:10:35.080 laden with complex questions

00:10:39.400 and potentially

00:10:40.240 tougher answers.

00:10:42.220 But if we rally

00:10:43.840 behind our bill of rights

00:10:45.600 we uphold

00:10:46.960 personal responsibility

00:10:48.640 and acknowledge

00:10:49.980 and acknowledge

00:10:50.000 that we

00:10:50.800 are not infallible

00:10:52.700 that neither

00:10:53.620 the corporations

00:10:54.560 the elites

00:10:55.520 the latest algorithm

00:10:57.220 nor governments

00:10:58.560 are omnipotent.

00:11:00.440 We can navigate

00:11:02.100 this storm

00:11:02.840 together

00:11:03.440 but we must

00:11:05.060 simply acknowledge

00:11:06.420 God

00:11:07.180 remains God

00:11:08.560 and we are not

00:11:10.480 nor ever

00:11:11.080 will be

00:11:11.840 him.

00:11:12.420 kindness

00:11:15.880 and understanding

00:11:16.980 and the willingness

00:11:17.740 to embrace

00:11:19.100 disagreement

00:11:19.980 have been

00:11:21.560 the lifeblood

00:11:22.620 of our democracy.

00:11:24.300 We've always

00:11:25.380 been a nation

00:11:26.100 that not only

00:11:26.960 tolerates

00:11:27.860 but fights

00:11:28.920 for the rights

00:11:29.620 of those

00:11:30.120 with divergent views

00:11:31.240 to express themselves.

00:11:33.300 This is uniquely

00:11:34.600 American.

00:11:35.900 This value

00:11:36.680 is a testament

00:11:37.480 to the strength

00:11:38.360 of our commitment

00:11:39.200 to freedom.

00:11:46.720 As we face

00:11:47.840 our challenges

00:11:48.400 head on

00:11:48.980 we must remember

00:11:52.080 the virtues

00:11:52.800 and the values

00:11:53.780 that set us

00:11:55.060 apart

00:11:55.800 on this continent.

00:11:58.420 Let us be guided

00:11:59.840 by our

00:12:00.480 shared commitment

00:12:01.820 to the freedoms

00:12:03.120 that we hold dear.

00:12:05.560 It's only this way

00:12:07.320 that we can build

00:12:08.200 a better future

00:12:09.100 for all Americans.

00:12:11.380 There is

00:12:12.080 a new horizon

00:12:13.180 waiting for us.

00:12:15.280 It beckons us

00:12:16.320 to recalibrate

00:12:17.400 to renew ourselves

00:12:18.980 and to chart

00:12:20.260 a course

00:12:20.840 that is reflective

00:12:21.840 of the diverse

00:12:23.320 the vibrant

00:12:24.340 and resilient spirit

00:12:26.040 that has always

00:12:27.240 been quintessentially

00:12:28.300 American.

00:12:29.360 It's our unity

00:12:30.760 not our diversity.

00:12:34.280 Unity is our strength

00:12:36.020 our commitment

00:12:37.380 commitment to the freedom

00:12:38.340 of the individual

00:12:39.640 to seize the opportunity

00:12:41.420 that is just over

00:12:43.580 the threshold

00:12:44.280 of tomorrow.

00:12:45.160 That's our anchor.

00:12:49.400 With unity

00:12:50.660 and the individual

00:12:52.560 with these

00:12:53.420 we'll write a new

00:12:55.600 invigorating chapter

00:12:57.100 in our shared

00:12:57.880 American story.

00:12:59.460 It's not going to be

00:13:00.620 some internet mob

00:13:01.780 some angry

00:13:03.220 misguided

00:13:03.920 malcontents

00:13:04.840 who march

00:13:05.520 and burn

00:13:06.160 and destroy

00:13:06.960 nor a puffed up

00:13:08.620 army of government

00:13:09.820 administrators

00:13:10.700 or an all powerful

00:13:12.660 executive

00:13:13.360 but it will be

00:13:14.600 us

00:13:15.280 us as individuals

00:13:17.420 in our own way

00:13:18.400 in our own lives

00:13:19.320 simply by uniting

00:13:20.820 under the banner

00:13:21.780 that we still

00:13:23.040 hold these ideas

00:13:24.740 as self-evident

00:13:25.820 truths

00:13:26.480 that all men

00:13:28.600 are created equal

00:13:29.680 that they're endowed

00:13:30.920 by their creator

00:13:31.940 with certain

00:13:32.600 unalienable rights

00:13:33.800 and that among

00:13:34.880 these are life

00:13:35.640 liberty

00:13:35.980 and the pursuit

00:13:36.620 of happiness

00:13:37.180 and that to secure

00:13:38.580 these rights

00:13:39.340 governments are

00:13:40.120 instituted among men

00:13:41.580 and let me emphasize

00:13:42.900 that this same

00:13:44.520 government

00:13:44.940 in the next line

00:13:46.100 derives their

00:13:47.460 just powers

00:13:48.760 from the consent

00:13:50.180 of the governed.

00:13:52.840 That's you.

00:13:55.300 That's not some

00:13:55.920 distant

00:13:56.440 pencil pusher

00:13:58.120 you never voted

00:13:58.900 for

00:13:59.300 not some

00:14:00.500 foreign body

00:14:01.740 or collection

00:14:02.680 of people

00:14:03.860 who have

00:14:04.160 absolutely no

00:14:05.020 power in

00:14:05.740 their forums

00:14:06.940 that's you.

00:14:14.860 Break the shackles

00:14:16.540 of the lies

00:14:17.280 and illusions

00:14:17.960 make a commitment

00:14:20.380 to speak

00:14:21.100 only the truths

00:14:22.640 that unite us

00:14:24.140 and have united

00:14:25.180 us for centuries

00:14:26.460 to all that

00:14:30.060 you can do

00:14:30.800 to restore

00:14:34.400 the faith

00:14:35.060 in one another

00:14:35.880 again.

00:14:37.700 Yes we're

00:14:38.240 different

00:14:38.580 yes we disagree

00:14:39.680 but we must

00:14:42.040 unite on what

00:14:42.760 we have in

00:14:43.540 common

00:14:44.060 and those

00:14:45.060 things

00:14:45.560 are those

00:14:46.660 self-evident

00:14:47.740 principles.

00:14:50.120 If you can't

00:14:51.440 say that all

00:14:52.020 men are created

00:14:52.740 equal

00:14:53.100 and endowed

00:14:53.680 by their creator

00:14:54.520 if you cannot

00:14:56.080 agree

00:14:57.940 with the bill

00:14:59.320 of rights

00:14:59.840 heck

00:15:00.580 give me

00:15:01.860 eight out

00:15:02.380 of the ten

00:15:03.140 if you

00:15:05.680 can't

00:15:06.300 if you can't

00:15:09.120 speak the words

00:15:09.900 that those

00:15:10.660 words are

00:15:11.540 true

00:15:12.120 and the

00:15:13.220 highest ideals

00:15:14.420 that any

00:15:15.100 country

00:15:15.580 has ever

00:15:16.540 espoused

00:15:17.160 and yes

00:15:17.840 we don't

00:15:18.380 live up to

00:15:19.060 it all

00:15:19.720 the time

00:15:20.260 we have

00:15:21.040 had very

00:15:21.840 dark periods

00:15:22.780 in our

00:15:23.280 country

00:15:23.720 but we

00:15:24.680 have also

00:15:25.340 had

00:15:25.740 unbelievable

00:15:27.360 light

00:15:28.340 whatever the

00:15:30.460 government may

00:15:31.360 have done

00:15:31.920 from time

00:15:32.520 to time

00:15:33.080 don't put

00:15:34.280 that on

00:15:34.660 my door

00:15:35.480 I wasn't

00:15:38.000 born

00:15:38.440 I wasn't

00:15:39.440 around

00:15:40.000 I didn't

00:15:41.240 have the

00:15:41.860 right to

00:15:42.400 vote

00:15:42.920 at that

00:15:43.560 time

00:15:44.060 what the

00:15:46.500 government

00:15:46.820 is doing

00:15:47.380 in my

00:15:47.860 lifetime

00:15:48.400 is a

00:15:49.140 reflection

00:15:49.580 of me

00:15:50.240 if they

00:15:51.160 answer

00:15:51.680 to the

00:15:52.320 people

00:15:52.800 which they

00:15:53.660 no longer

00:15:54.480 do

00:15:55.040 they are

00:15:58.200 no longer

00:15:58.920 restrained

00:15:59.900 by the

00:16:00.600 governed

00:16:01.020 who give

00:16:02.660 them

00:16:03.080 their

00:16:03.500 just

00:16:04.380 powers

00:16:05.360 I haven't

00:16:08.040 seen a

00:16:08.520 just power

00:16:09.220 in quite

00:16:09.680 some time

00:16:10.340 breathe

00:16:21.740 in

00:16:21.940 Washington

00:16:22.480 breathe

00:16:25.240 in

00:16:25.460 King

00:16:26.080 breathe

00:16:28.580 in the

00:16:28.880 good

00:16:29.060 times

00:16:29.460 breathe

00:16:30.420 in the

00:16:30.780 times

00:16:31.160 where we

00:16:31.660 were

00:16:31.900 at each

00:16:32.540 other's

00:16:32.980 throats

00:16:33.440 but we

00:16:33.900 came

00:16:34.440 back

00:16:34.920 together

00:16:35.620 because

00:16:36.320 we had

00:16:37.120 a

00:16:37.340 common

00:16:38.300 purpose

00:16:39.040 I hear

00:16:45.740 people on

00:16:46.300 the right

00:16:46.640 now talk

00:16:47.180 about a

00:16:48.260 new

00:16:48.480 founding

00:16:49.040 an

00:16:53.280 unrestrained

00:16:54.680 executive

00:16:56.120 that we

00:16:57.940 are too

00:16:58.340 far gone

00:16:59.220 we need

00:16:59.740 to forget

00:17:00.860 and stop

00:17:01.760 conserving

00:17:02.720 what is

00:17:04.160 good

00:17:04.620 and start

00:17:05.860 reimagining

00:17:07.040 now we

00:17:08.820 do not

00:17:09.320 need a

00:17:09.820 new

00:17:09.980 founding

00:17:10.400 we do

00:17:11.080 not

00:17:11.380 need

00:17:11.900 a

00:17:12.180 reimagining

00:17:13.020 we need

00:17:14.680 a reset

00:17:15.300 we need

00:17:16.300 a rediscovery

00:17:17.700 we need

00:17:18.640 a recommitment

00:17:19.800 we need

00:17:20.700 a restoration

00:17:21.480 of truth

00:17:22.740 of God

00:17:23.920 and the

00:17:24.360 power he

00:17:24.860 gives

00:17:25.180 each of

00:17:25.960 us

00:17:26.560 to rule

00:17:27.580 over our

00:17:28.260 own lives

00:17:29.000 and our

00:17:29.360 passions

00:17:29.860 and our

00:17:30.340 feelings

00:17:30.900 so many

00:17:41.980 times I

00:17:42.400 fear we're

00:17:42.680 not going

00:17:42.960 to make

00:17:43.240 it

00:17:43.460 so many

00:17:47.360 times I

00:17:47.900 fear

00:17:48.260 I fear

00:17:49.940 and feel

00:17:51.840 like I

00:17:52.260 felt in

00:17:52.860 my pickup

00:17:53.720 truck

00:17:54.160 driving to

00:17:55.240 my friend's

00:17:55.880 house

00:17:56.100 yesterday

00:17:56.640 jeez

00:17:59.680 look at

00:18:00.020 this storm

00:18:00.620 look at

00:18:02.300 the damage

00:18:03.160 that it's

00:18:03.680 doing

00:18:04.000 but I

00:18:09.740 promise you

00:18:10.320 we'll

00:18:10.620 weather the

00:18:11.240 storm

00:18:11.660 if we

00:18:13.400 understand

00:18:14.180 that it's

00:18:15.300 temporary

00:18:15.960 that our

00:18:17.440 fear is

00:18:18.440 not real

00:18:19.460 if we

00:18:23.820 curse the

00:18:24.420 storm

00:18:24.820 after the

00:18:25.960 storm

00:18:26.360 we haven't

00:18:27.320 learned a

00:18:27.920 thing

00:18:28.320 I

00:18:31.240 thank God

00:18:31.880 for the

00:18:32.280 storm

00:18:32.660 I

00:18:33.280 thank God

00:18:33.840 for the

00:18:34.160 storms

00:18:34.540 of my

00:18:35.040 life

00:18:35.700 I

00:18:37.440 thank God

00:18:37.940 for all

00:18:39.100 of the

00:18:39.420 things that

00:18:40.040 oh I've

00:18:40.940 been through

00:18:41.660 and you've

00:18:42.380 been through

00:18:42.880 we all

00:18:43.560 have our

00:18:44.120 storms we

00:18:44.800 all have

00:18:45.300 our

00:18:45.480 problems

00:18:45.980 we all

00:18:47.480 struggle

00:18:48.240 all of

00:18:49.140 us

00:18:49.420 struggle

00:18:50.060 thank God

00:18:54.060 for that

00:18:54.580 because I

00:18:56.120 am a

00:18:56.360 stronger

00:18:56.660 man and

00:18:57.140 I'm a

00:18:57.480 better

00:18:57.720 man for

00:18:58.220 that

00:18:58.420 thank you

00:18:59.020 for the

00:18:59.440 rain

00:18:59.820 it has

00:19:00.540 helped

00:19:00.820 me

00:19:01.180 grow

00:19:01.860 it

00:19:05.740 washes

00:19:06.300 away

00:19:06.900 the dirt

00:19:07.700 and the

00:19:08.080 grime

00:19:08.640 it

00:19:11.140 purifies

00:19:11.940 that's why

00:19:19.500 we have

00:19:19.800 baptism

00:19:20.300 that's what

00:19:21.900 that means

00:19:22.540 it washes

00:19:26.740 away all

00:19:28.000 of the

00:19:28.520 grime

00:19:29.040 and the

00:19:29.620 filth

00:19:30.020 and you

00:19:33.380 know why

00:19:33.740 it works

00:19:34.280 because those

00:19:36.360 of us

00:19:36.920 who have

00:19:38.380 seen the

00:19:39.440 change in

00:19:40.260 our life

00:19:41.040 needed the

00:19:42.700 change in

00:19:43.500 our life

00:19:44.160 and we

00:19:45.400 had faith

00:19:46.440 that this

00:19:48.180 water and

00:19:48.880 being immersed

00:19:49.740 in that

00:19:50.400 water would

00:19:51.860 perform

00:19:53.200 miracles in

00:19:54.460 our lives

00:19:55.120 if we

00:19:56.860 didn't believe

00:19:57.700 if we

00:19:58.440 didn't strive

00:19:59.540 for

00:20:00.040 if we

00:20:01.580 didn't do

00:20:02.040 the basic

00:20:02.920 work that

00:20:03.700 water would

00:20:04.460 just be

00:20:05.180 water

00:20:05.760 the clouds

00:20:22.480 are breaking

00:20:23.080 shadows only

00:20:28.160 exist because

00:20:29.080 there is a

00:20:29.700 light somewhere

00:20:30.540 and as

00:20:33.580 the shadows

00:20:34.320 grow more

00:20:35.880 defined and

00:20:37.000 darker and

00:20:37.860 more menacing

00:20:38.660 realize that's

00:20:41.580 only because

00:20:42.400 the light

00:20:43.900 has grown

00:20:44.880 stronger

00:20:45.480 God is

00:20:48.600 is very

00:20:51.000 well aware

00:20:52.080 of you

00:20:53.000 God knows

00:20:56.140 who you

00:20:56.580 are he

00:20:57.220 knows what

00:20:57.880 your struggles

00:20:58.460 are

00:20:58.880 when you

00:21:00.460 recognize that

00:21:01.400 he knows

00:21:02.120 this and

00:21:03.880 that the

00:21:04.240 storms of

00:21:04.820 our lives

00:21:05.560 will make

00:21:06.460 us better

00:21:07.020 and put

00:21:07.680 us into

00:21:08.560 the situation

00:21:09.600 to where

00:21:10.520 we need

00:21:11.260 to be if

00:21:12.060 we will

00:21:12.580 just not

00:21:13.280 curse the

00:21:14.100 storm

00:21:14.560 we can

00:21:19.600 learn

00:21:20.020 and it

00:21:21.320 will renew

00:21:21.840 us

00:21:22.280 I worry

00:21:25.960 so much

00:21:26.400 about so

00:21:27.020 many

00:21:27.360 of our

00:21:28.940 friends and

00:21:29.580 family

00:21:30.180 and you

00:21:32.160 I worry

00:21:34.720 so much

00:21:35.340 of those

00:21:35.860 who are in

00:21:37.000 the depths

00:21:37.600 of despair

00:21:38.480 and think

00:21:39.380 there is

00:21:39.780 no way

00:21:40.540 out

00:21:40.980 that think

00:21:43.320 their life

00:21:44.260 is not

00:21:45.020 worth living

00:21:45.740 that is

00:21:47.900 the whisper

00:21:48.540 of lies

00:21:49.780 let's move

00:21:56.940 forward

00:21:57.520 together

00:21:59.020 toward the

00:22:00.880 promising

00:22:01.400 horizon

00:22:02.220 knowing that

00:22:04.240 all will be

00:22:04.940 well in the

00:22:05.600 end

00:22:05.940 we've done

00:22:07.840 it before

00:22:08.480 and if we

00:22:10.180 do it again

00:22:10.940 we will

00:22:11.460 triumph

00:22:12.020 we will

00:22:12.560 demonstrate

00:22:13.460 to the

00:22:14.040 world again

00:22:14.840 the

00:22:15.500 indomitable

00:22:16.260 American

00:22:17.180 spirit

00:22:17.900 you're listening

00:22:19.480 to the best

00:22:20.300 of the

00:22:20.660 Glenn Beck

00:22:21.000 program

00:22:21.540 Kirk Cameron

00:22:24.480 is joining

00:22:25.240 us now

00:22:25.660 hi Kirk

00:22:26.100 how are you

00:22:26.600 hey Glenn

00:22:27.380 I'm doing

00:22:27.680 great

00:22:28.100 thanks so

00:22:28.620 much for

00:22:28.940 having me

00:22:29.320 on

00:22:29.600 appreciate

00:22:30.320 you

00:22:30.620 and thanks

00:22:31.100 for the

00:22:31.280 compliment

00:22:31.600 about

00:22:31.900 all around

00:22:32.420 good guy

00:22:32.980 but remember

00:22:33.560 I'm an

00:22:33.880 actor

00:22:34.140 I could be

00:22:34.620 faking

00:22:34.880 this whole

00:22:35.380 thing

00:22:35.720 I know

00:22:38.180 you all

00:22:38.500 enough to

00:22:38.820 know you

00:22:39.080 are not

00:22:39.500 faking

00:22:39.900 it

00:22:40.160 but Kirk

00:22:41.540 what you're

00:22:42.000 doing with

00:22:42.580 libraries I

00:22:43.380 think is so

00:22:44.080 important the

00:22:44.880 the American

00:22:45.940 Library Association

00:22:46.960 every local

00:22:48.440 library should

00:22:49.700 distance themselves

00:22:51.140 right now and the

00:22:51.740 people of the

00:22:52.380 community should

00:22:53.020 demand it

00:22:53.540 get away from

00:22:55.040 the American

00:22:55.540 Library Association

00:22:56.580 they are

00:22:58.000 they are

00:22:58.820 corrupt and

00:22:59.840 going in the

00:23:00.440 opposite direction

00:23:01.340 that's just my

00:23:02.440 opinion I don't

00:23:02.980 want to make

00:23:03.540 that your

00:23:03.900 opinion

00:23:04.260 well I

00:23:06.060 think your

00:23:06.440 your opinion

00:23:07.320 is

00:23:08.480 comporting with

00:23:09.700 truth and

00:23:10.240 reality

00:23:10.700 the director

00:23:12.000 of the

00:23:12.460 ALA

00:23:12.980 is a

00:23:13.660 self-described

00:23:14.460 Marxist

00:23:15.320 and the

00:23:16.940 lady that

00:23:17.780 we've been

00:23:18.100 tangling with

00:23:18.920 who's the

00:23:19.740 director of

00:23:20.300 the office of

00:23:20.900 intellectual freedom

00:23:21.960 and diversity

00:23:23.060 is the one who

00:23:24.500 has been caught

00:23:25.520 on video

00:23:26.280 teaching librarians

00:23:27.860 how to block

00:23:29.460 American families

00:23:31.100 specifically families

00:23:32.260 of faith

00:23:32.880 who like me

00:23:34.240 and want to

00:23:34.860 come with their

00:23:35.680 children and read

00:23:36.500 books to their

00:23:37.100 kids tomorrow

00:23:37.840 morning as part

00:23:38.820 of our event

00:23:39.400 called see you

00:23:40.840 at the library

00:23:41.540 so the ALA

00:23:43.520 is really

00:23:45.880 teaching libraries

00:23:47.440 all across the

00:23:48.680 country how to

00:23:49.540 break the law

00:23:50.420 and engage in

00:23:51.200 open religious

00:23:51.900 discrimination

00:23:52.460 but as you know

00:23:54.500 there's the divine

00:23:55.820 hand of providence

00:23:56.680 behind this whole

00:23:57.600 thing and the story

00:23:58.540 just gets better and

00:23:59.380 better because it's

00:24:00.140 only tripling and

00:24:01.500 quadrupling the

00:24:02.300 size of the

00:24:02.800 audience we now

00:24:03.920 have 300 public

00:24:05.700 libraries that are

00:24:07.380 signed up for

00:24:08.520 tomorrow and

00:24:09.940 that's representing

00:24:10.680 45 states across

00:24:12.140 the country and

00:24:13.160 they're bringing

00:24:13.580 thousands and

00:24:14.800 tens of thousands

00:24:15.640 of people into

00:24:16.940 the library to

00:24:17.640 read books that

00:24:18.940 are about true

00:24:20.580 religion and

00:24:21.920 virtue these are

00:24:23.740 the indispensable

00:24:24.400 supports of

00:24:25.200 America that

00:24:26.260 will cause

00:24:27.520 Marxism to

00:24:29.260 be a thing of

00:24:30.120 the past if

00:24:31.060 it takes root

00:24:31.980 again so I

00:24:34.760 highly recommend

00:24:36.300 where can you

00:24:37.220 get that list of

00:24:38.320 what libraries are

00:24:47.380 library and

00:24:48.440 there's a map of

00:24:49.300 the United States

00:24:50.760 in and find your

00:24:51.520 state your county

00:24:52.380 your libraries and

00:24:53.880 there's again over

00:24:55.440 300 of them I

00:24:58.120 I can't express

00:24:59.900 enough to you

00:25:01.740 the listener that

00:25:02.640 please get

00:25:04.360 involved in this

00:25:05.180 please go tomorrow

00:25:08.460 statement and an

00:25:09.600 impact come in

00:25:10.300 love and peace

00:25:11.800 and unity and

00:25:12.660 harmony but make

00:25:14.880 an impact in your

00:25:15.700 library and then

00:25:16.800 don't let it rest

00:25:18.260 there go to your

00:25:19.820 city council go to

00:25:21.160 your mayor go to

00:25:22.140 your city leaders

00:25:23.040 and insist that

00:25:25.500 they get out of

00:25:26.780 the American

00:25:27.300 Library Association

00:25:28.360 there is no

00:25:29.680 reason it is just

00:25:30.980 as dangerous if

00:25:32.020 not more so than

00:25:33.580 the the teachers

00:25:34.940 unions they are

00:25:37.680 they have been

00:25:38.740 completely hijacked

00:25:40.740 no matter what

00:25:41.900 they say they are

00:25:43.040 Marxist they are

00:25:44.180 teaching garbage to

00:25:45.860 our children they

00:25:47.020 do not have the

00:25:48.560 American values that

00:25:50.220 we hold

00:25:50.740 traditionally I

00:25:52.040 don't want to see

00:25:52.740 any book burnings

00:25:53.900 or anything else

00:25:54.640 but there are such

00:25:55.900 a thing as

00:25:56.800 appropriate books

00:25:58.180 in appropriate

00:25:59.060 sections and I'm

00:26:01.020 sorry but America

00:26:01.940 has always had and

00:26:03.500 people call us

00:26:04.220 prudes for this I

00:26:05.160 don't think there's

00:26:05.620 anything wrong with

00:26:06.160 it there used to be

00:26:07.320 beads at the door

00:26:08.680 where you'd have to

00:26:09.400 go in and you'd see

00:26:10.320 things we don't share

00:26:11.520 those things with

00:26:12.420 our children we

00:26:14.180 just don't do it

00:26:15.640 it's not healthy

00:26:16.540 for them

00:26:17.140 absolutely agree with

00:26:21.440 you with you with

00:26:22.180 you Glenn and it's

00:26:23.140 so interesting I mean

00:26:23.980 it's the height of

00:26:24.700 hypocrisy right those

00:26:26.120 who are afraid of

00:26:27.080 book burnings those

00:26:28.300 who are saying hey

00:26:29.000 no don't ban our

00:26:29.880 books don't ban our

00:26:30.580 books we want to

00:26:31.080 teach children

00:26:31.640 pornographic material

00:26:32.900 and and how to have

00:26:34.200 sexual acts with with

00:26:35.460 one another and change

00:26:36.320 their genders and

00:26:37.180 pronouns and all that

00:26:38.440 and yet they are the

00:26:39.980 very same people who

00:26:41.440 are wanting to block

00:26:43.020 and deny access to

00:26:44.400 families of faith who

00:26:45.360 want to talk about

00:26:46.080 faith hope and love

00:26:47.580 but but I love the

00:26:50.060 way all this plays

00:26:50.920 out because it's

00:26:51.640 really firing up the

00:26:52.880 parents and the

00:26:53.500 grandparents they're

00:26:54.880 coming out in droves

00:26:55.760 pastors state senators

00:26:57.920 like Marco Rubio and

00:26:59.420 Ashcroft and Kramer and

00:27:01.380 others state governors

00:27:03.260 are coming and

00:27:04.440 participating county

00:27:05.400 commissioners mayors we

00:27:07.420 have celebrities coming

00:27:08.320 to read children's books

00:27:09.300 at the libraries and you

00:27:11.520 know I want parents to

00:27:12.800 understand that there is

00:27:13.880 no more powerful position

00:27:15.120 in the United States

00:27:15.960 than being a mom or a

00:27:17.180 dad or a grandma or a

00:27:18.740 grandpa change does not

00:27:20.240 begin at the White House

00:27:21.140 it begins at your house

00:27:22.300 and Glenn you've been a

00:27:23.220 champion of this for

00:27:24.040 decades you're celebrate

00:27:25.580 freedom events you're

00:27:26.540 celebrate love events

00:27:27.600 we've got to have a

00:27:28.800 ground game and not be

00:27:30.200 whiners we've got to

00:27:31.480 become winners by putting

00:27:33.300 feet to our face and our

00:27:34.680 convictions and that's

00:27:35.800 what this Saturday is all

00:27:36.620 about and I will tell you

00:27:39.380 showing up is the first

00:27:40.900 step I'm going to check

00:27:42.260 the map when we finish

00:27:44.540 here Kirk and I'm going

00:27:45.440 to see if there's a

00:27:46.280 library near me and I

00:27:47.720 will go myself on

00:27:49.160 Saturday and I'd be

00:27:50.880 more than willing to

00:27:51.820 read one of the books

00:27:52.680 for the kids but I will

00:27:54.560 tell you this that it is

00:27:57.280 so vital that you get

00:28:00.160 involved and take back

00:28:02.320 your libraries I mean I

00:28:04.480 just did a huge

00:28:05.620 fundraiser for a school

00:28:07.160 and a library here in my

00:28:09.480 neighboring town for where

00:28:11.380 my ranch is up in Idaho

00:28:12.700 and I'm going to ask the

00:28:14.640 the library board are you

00:28:17.220 members of the American

00:28:18.300 Library Association if so

00:28:19.960 why why that should

00:28:22.000 change yeah that's that's

00:28:23.780 a great question and

00:28:24.540 there are states that

00:28:25.180 have already pulled

00:28:26.600 themselves out of the

00:28:27.740 ALA and I've talked to

00:28:29.900 a governor recently about

00:28:31.220 doing the same thing many

00:28:32.100 are already are in the

00:28:32.940 process of doing that as

00:28:33.940 well and when you think

00:28:34.620 about it how crazy is it

00:28:36.280 that you would block

00:28:37.080 families from coming to

00:28:38.160 your local library Glenn

00:28:39.680 we have three I have

00:28:41.820 three libraries I'm going

00:28:42.940 to tomorrow I'm getting

00:28:43.860 in a plane and I'm going

00:28:44.880 to three libraries in

00:28:46.460 three states in one day

00:28:47.920 and one of them is in

00:28:48.940 Alabama Alabama just

00:28:50.120 canceled the event and

00:28:51.600 they cited capacity

00:28:52.860 concerns well listen we're

00:28:53.960 polite we stand in line

00:28:55.220 first come first serve

00:28:56.420 people are happy to stand

00:28:57.620 out in the rain in the

00:28:58.820 parking lot we've done it

00:28:59.640 many times before we just

00:29:00.860 sing songs like God

00:29:01.800 bless America and we

00:29:02.700 pray for each other and

00:29:04.340 they tried to cancel it

00:29:05.500 again and they're they're

00:29:08.680 they're not right in

00:29:09.700 doing that and the crazy

00:29:11.180 thing is libraries are

00:29:14.020 becoming a bit obsolete

00:29:15.780 and irrelevant to the

00:29:16.760 younger generation with all

00:29:17.960 of the e-books and online

00:29:19.100 learning options and so

00:29:20.840 they should be grateful

00:29:21.660 they should be embracing

00:29:23.140 this family-friendly

00:29:24.280 movement that's bringing

00:29:25.520 people to their libraries

00:29:26.920 instead they're so they've

00:29:29.280 drunk the woke kool-aid

00:29:30.460 they're so filled with fear

00:29:31.900 or something that they're

00:29:33.800 cutting off their nose

00:29:34.680 despite their face

00:29:35.620 yeah I really I don't

00:29:39.500 understand the use of the

00:29:42.340 public funds for libraries

00:29:44.340 when you can access every

00:29:47.740 book ever written online I

00:29:50.300 mean I like libraries I

00:29:51.680 think the printed book is

00:29:52.920 very very important I happen

00:29:55.180 to agree with Carnegie when

00:29:58.460 Carnegie built libraries all

00:30:00.320 across the country and he

00:30:01.920 built them in poor cities and

00:30:04.380 he gave them the library of

00:30:06.280 the king what the king had in

00:30:08.860 his library at that time so

00:30:11.420 that way every single

00:30:13.020 American no matter how poor

00:30:14.400 could have the education of a

00:30:16.280 prince or a king and change

00:30:18.320 their status I believe in all

00:30:20.640 of that stuff but I gotta tell

00:30:22.380 you when the library is no

00:30:25.140 longer a place that you can go

00:30:27.300 in and learn and learn how to

00:30:30.500 learn how to ask questions how

00:30:32.920 to compare in contrast to say

00:30:34.900 wait a minute they say this

00:30:35.980 they say this which one is true

00:30:38.380 when it is being guided down the

00:30:40.980 path of evil and and just

00:30:45.180 grotesque ideas like pedophilia

00:30:48.160 and and mutilation of our

00:30:51.220 children I'm sorry why am I

00:30:52.700 paying for that I don't believe

00:30:54.300 in it yeah why am I paying for

00:30:55.860 it well boy I I sure agree and

00:30:58.620 and and this really gets us down

00:31:00.200 to our our our fundamental ideas

00:31:02.500 about what is good and what is

00:31:04.200 evil what is light and what is

00:31:05.860 darkness and when we uh when we

00:31:08.320 when we unhitch ourself when when

00:31:11.540 we disconnect from those

00:31:12.960 transcendent values those those

00:31:15.080 heavenly principles that God's

00:31:16.800 given us we just we spiral out of

00:31:19.680 control into a moral swamp and a

00:31:24.580 a darkness that we we we have

00:31:28.160 become we become so used to it

00:31:29.660 that we think it's normal and this

00:31:31.960 young generation is growing up that

00:31:33.460 way they desperately need us to get

00:31:35.520 back in the game and rescue them and

00:31:38.620 bring them back to their blessing and

00:31:40.460 their protection and Glenn I

00:31:42.180 appreciate you and all that you do

00:31:43.820 and have been doing for decades to

00:31:46.400 to help us see that well Kirk I

00:31:49.100 thank you very much as well and I

00:31:51.040 have I have to tell you you have

00:31:52.460 two children's books out as you

00:31:54.000 grow and this one I just love I've

00:31:56.900 wanted to talk to you for a while

00:31:58.040 now and just say thank you for

00:32:00.000 saying this your other book is pride

00:32:02.580 becomes comes before the fall I have

00:32:06.140 been saying that for a while now

00:32:08.160 where it's like we we need to be

00:32:10.660 humble and pride isn't it

00:32:13.080 interesting yes that the left is

00:32:15.360 pushing pride when we know that's a

00:32:18.380 deadly sin we know that's a deadly

00:32:20.680 sin what are we doing yeah you we

00:32:23.900 were just listening to that ad on

00:32:25.380 your program here about pride

00:32:26.580 parades could you imagine if if we

00:32:29.120 just swapped it out for some of the

00:32:30.120 other deadly sins and and we had

00:32:32.220 some greed parade and some lust and

00:32:38.520 envy parade and and yeah is the

00:32:42.280 pregnant mother that gives birth to

00:32:44.680 every other form of evil pride

00:32:47.940 separates us from each other in

00:32:49.660 marriage and relationships with our

00:32:51.100 kids pride separates us from God we

00:32:53.480 got to humble ourselves that's the

00:32:55.240 pathway to blessing and love and

00:32:57.660 relationship kids should know that

00:32:59.380 amen Kirk it's good to talk to you I

00:33:32.860 of the Glenn Beck program last Wednesday

00:33:38.040 YouTube page and you can watch it on

00:33:40.900 blaze TV in the archives it is my

00:33:43.580 Wednesday night special and it is

00:33:45.700 involved deeply in what is happening for

00:33:50.000 2024 and how the the Democrats are

00:33:54.900 building a machine and you know they're

00:33:59.020 open about it but the Republicans refuse

00:34:01.280 to do anything about it the left has

00:34:04.500 built this electoral machine but it

00:34:07.920 could never be so potent without the

00:34:10.360 changes that were made during the

00:34:12.140 pandemic things like early voting and

00:34:14.740 you know mass mail-in balloting it was

00:34:18.300 also supposed to be temporary fixes

00:34:20.440 that's what they've said but that was

00:34:24.060 the crap the left was shoveling and we

00:34:26.300 told you at the time they're never going

00:34:28.240 to go away it will never go away the end

00:34:31.080 result is one of the most unprecedented

00:34:32.720 elections in history where the ballots

00:34:34.700 were flying in like confetti in a parade

00:34:37.020 for an astronaut and with that in

00:34:40.240 context it kind of puts the left's extreme

00:34:44.260 draconian response to COVID in an entirely

00:34:46.880 new light doesn't it the American

00:34:49.300 conservative recently published a piece

00:34:50.920 on the left's plans for 2024 and it said

00:34:53.320 this it was never about protecting

00:34:55.860 Americans from the coronavirus it was

00:34:58.140 always about seizing power if conservatives

00:35:01.600 are to win in 2024 they must be all in

00:35:05.400 that starts by understanding the left's

00:35:08.500 playbook for meddling with 2024 I agree

00:35:12.020 and you know I'd like to say it's not

00:35:14.520 like there is a playbook out there but

00:35:16.440 there is a playbook out there that

00:35:18.760 everyone can read back in February the

00:35:21.180 Washington Post editorial board

00:35:22.720 highlighted five things that should be

00:35:25.200 done to increase public confidence in the

00:35:27.280 next election it was you know pretty

00:35:29.320 much yada yada yada testing voting

00:35:30.960 machines etc etc but the Washington Post

00:35:33.080 didn't come up with these ideas they

00:35:36.100 were endorsed with the work of a left

00:35:38.380 leading non-profit called the New Deal

00:35:41.080 Forum have you ever heard of that they're

00:35:43.820 all about providing quote more than 40

00:35:47.020 specific action steps that officials should

00:35:49.120 take ahead of the 2024 presidential

00:35:51.060 election highlighting the vital role state

00:35:53.880 and local officials play in our elections

00:35:55.660 including where how and when Americans

00:35:57.720 can vote now there's not a whole lot out

00:36:01.480 there on this organization and that's

00:36:03.560 really surprising because they are

00:36:05.580 insanely connected if you scroll through

00:36:09.200 their list of leaders it includes

00:36:10.960 Stacey Abrams Corey Booker Pete

00:36:13.760 Buttigieg Chris Coons the laundry list goes

00:36:16.920 on and on of senators representatives mayors

00:36:20.360 council members school board members judges

00:36:24.060 gubernatorial staff spread out all over the

00:36:28.160 country and it's kind of odd for a small

00:36:30.780 underreported organization whatever is

00:36:34.940 really going on they are clearly leveraging

00:36:37.340 their vast influence they recently published

00:36:40.560 the list of states that are implementing

00:36:42.500 their ideas the states Arkansas Oklahoma Nevada

00:36:48.200 Colorado New Mexico Minnesota and Michigan

00:36:51.200 some of those states look kind of important

00:36:54.680 if we want to win in 2024 so with all this

00:36:58.240 influence and success what's their ultimate

00:37:01.300 plan well let's look at their playbook

00:37:04.480 which they have it is actually called the

00:37:08.000 democracy playbook it includes measures that

00:37:11.460 would fully transform how America's vote

00:37:14.280 page 17 and 18 voter registration would

00:37:18.300 completely change they want automatic voter

00:37:21.260 registration it can be done online on the

00:37:24.260 same day as the vote there's no way anyone

00:37:27.200 would ever be able to take advantage of that

00:37:28.820 right it's totally secure it would also

00:37:31.760 allow pre-registration for kids who are 16

00:37:34.700 so when they turn 18 they're all ready to go

00:37:37.480 now this is totally not the preamble for 16

00:37:40.960 year olds to eventually vote sure I'm

00:37:43.040 surely that's not what this is really about

00:37:44.900 no because there hasn't been legislation

00:37:47.540 introduced to get that ball rolling

00:37:49.360 oh wait the playbook also includes expanding

00:37:52.900 early voting doubling down on absentee mail-in

00:37:56.620 voting plopping down more of those totally

00:37:59.100 secure drop boxes and look at this

00:38:02.920 legislation to make sure that 16 year olds

00:38:06.460 can vote because the playbook says the AP

00:38:10.460 told us they're secure they're secure and we're

00:38:13.680 not supposed to question just just know that

00:38:16.580 it's the experts are telling you

00:38:18.380 these are all of the temporary solutions

00:38:22.400 brought in for the pandemic

00:38:23.840 but now they want this to be the new and

00:38:27.840 permanent system and why wouldn't they

00:38:29.680 this is the culmination to the plans they have

00:38:32.360 been building and perfecting for over a

00:38:34.440 decade Democrats of a hundred organizations

00:38:37.900 like the voter participation center targeting

00:38:40.920 groups by the millions and what do we have

00:38:44.860 Mitch McConnell until we get our butts in gear and

00:38:51.460 strengthen election systems in every single

00:38:54.580 community and every single state we have no

00:38:57.880 choice but to play the left's game here we need to

00:39:01.580 triple down on how the left is using mass mailers to

00:39:05.440 targeted areas like battleground states the

00:39:08.640 numbers are extremely clear this is how they won

00:39:11.520 in 2020 and 2022 we haven't even started and

00:39:16.260 they're still changing the laws to skew to make

00:39:19.840 it all worse

00:39:20.660 listen I don't want to black pill you I don't

00:39:25.320 want to leave you with just bad news but I started

00:39:28.620 the program today with a monologue that if you missed

00:39:31.860 you should go back and listen to it wherever you get

00:39:34.420 your podcast but this is what I said two hours

00:39:37.740 ago we can navigate this storm together together we

00:39:44.080 stand on the precipice of demanding times laden with

00:39:48.920 complex questions and potentially tougher answers but

00:39:52.660 if we rally around our bill of rights uphold our personal

00:39:57.720 responsibility and acknowledge that we are not infallible but

00:40:02.900 neither are the corporations the elites the algorithms nor

00:40:06.480 governments they're not omnipotent God remains God and we

00:40:12.540 are not him that's the first thing we have to do that's how we write a new

00:40:19.180 chapter in our American story pay no attention to the internet mob the angry

00:40:25.840 misguided malcontents who march burn and destroy or to the crazy reporters on

00:40:31.300 networks that are telling you out and out lies and to deny what you have just

00:40:37.600 seen it's not going to be changed by a puff up army of government

00:40:42.400 administrators or an all-powerful executive no matter what anybody tells

00:40:46.600 you what's going to change this country is us and I don't just mean

00:40:53.060 conservatives I mean all of us living our own lives simply doing the next

00:41:01.620 right thing and uniting under the banner that we all still hold these ideas as

00:41:07.620 self-evident truths that all men are created equal endowed by their creator

00:41:11.480 with certain inalienable rights you know all of this you must live your life this

00:41:17.380 way you must understand that the next line is to secure these rights

00:41:23.680 governments are instituted among men and they derive their just powers from the

00:41:30.400 consent of the governed so we are the ones that give them this power and it's only

00:41:37.720 just power when is you what have you seen just power recently by the way the

00:41:46.000 governed that's you not some distant pencil pusher that you never voted for not

00:41:52.360 some you know NGO that strips you of another writer opportunity under cover

00:41:58.720 that's not the American governmental power and it's not just we have to increase

00:42:07.600 our efforts in exposing the deep state not get black-pilled by all of it know who

00:42:16.060 God is and know that he is involved in our lives and he is deeply involved in the

00:42:23.320 rights of men there are people in places like the FBI and DOJ and State Department and

00:42:31.600 all over the rest of the bureaucracy that have their own agenda it is not a just or American agenda

00:42:40.960 that agenda has nothing to do with the will of the people the consent of the governed they can't

00:42:49.960 get these things done because you know they're wrong so they have to rig the system they have to

00:42:57.960 dismantle the American system that has restraints on the federal government on the state government

00:43:05.300 the local government because the power comes from you exposing them works this week has been an

00:43:14.960 amazing thing it's been an amazing time I I have at the same time been so depressed I'm like you've got

00:43:20.440 to be kidding me look at how sloppy these people were this mob the mob should be insulted that they

00:43:29.040 call themselves a mob it's it's like the Keystone cops they're so sloppy and arrogant and I can't believe

00:43:37.080 that we have had whistleblowers come out and they aren't undercover we know their names we couldn't know

00:43:43.780 the names against Trump but we know these guys and they are under fire and they are in danger and they

00:43:49.440 stood up what happened with Devin Archer this week is incredible but the good news is people are seeing

00:43:59.240 it and more and more people every day slowly but they are seeing it exposing this works we're seeing it in

00:44:10.840 real time with the Biden crime family you have the power to change all this but you won't soon if you

00:44:19.420 don't go to your local GOP I mean your local GOP and start strategizing on how you are going to make sure

00:44:28.360 those ballots are confirmed they are verified and only people who can be verified are to vote

00:44:38.500 you must sign up for this go to your state you've got to stop the erosion of your governance your own

00:44:53.800 governance over the federal government they get the power from you it's time we govern over them and say

00:45:02.800 no
