00:00:00.000 What did we talk today, talk about today in the podcast, students, not from a parallel
00:00:06.840 year?
00:00:09.960 Is there any story today that you would say that you wouldn't say five to ten years ago?
00:00:20.120 Come on.
00:00:22.060 Was there a single story in today's show?
00:00:27.780 I don't think so.
00:00:29.140 I can't think of one that seemed even mildly rational.
00:00:34.620 Tonight, I'm doing a special on Blaze TV.
00:00:37.580 I'm going to show you how it gets worse.
00:00:39.240 We are now officially in the place that I said top down, bottom up, inside out.
00:00:45.680 The top is now solidified in charge.
00:00:49.460 They have their hands on all the levers.
00:00:51.620 They just need the country to be turned inside out and us fighting violently against each
00:01:00.660 other.
00:01:01.500 That way they can come down because the bottom has risen up.
00:01:05.960 I'm going to show it to you tonight with the trans army.
00:01:09.160 We talk about a lot of this on today's podcast.
00:01:12.040 You don't want to miss a second of it.
00:01:14.040 It's brought to you by American Giant.
00:01:16.500 Every time I think about American Giant, I think about going into the clothing store in my little hometown of Mount Vernon, where we used to buy Levi's.
00:01:24.540 And you still kind of buy Levi's like this if you buy them, you know, in a regular store.
00:01:31.500 You can go fancy pants stores and they don't sell like this.
00:01:34.140 But they used to just put them up on shelves.
00:01:35.920 And then, you know, my mom would take me and I'd buy all of my clothes, you know, one time a year.
00:01:43.560 If I was lucky, I could get a new pair of Levi's.
00:01:49.440 That's the way it used to be.
00:01:51.000 It's not that way anymore.
00:01:52.360 Ninety five percent of the clothing Americans bought back in the 60s made here in America.
00:01:57.560 Now, 97 percent of it comes from some foreign place.
00:02:00.740 I welcome American Giant as a sponsor to this program.
00:02:06.780 To them, it's not just the products that they make.
00:02:11.220 It's the American workers that make them.
00:02:13.600 It's about good paying jobs that allow people to take pride in their hard work that they do.
00:02:18.880 That you want to fix the country.
00:02:20.600 That's how you do it.
00:02:22.240 You begin restoring our dignity.
00:02:25.540 I want you to go to American-Giant.com and look at their clothing.
00:02:29.980 If you're in, you know, looking for any kind of clothing, get the best American-made clothing.
00:02:36.260 All sourced.
00:02:37.300 The cotton is sourced.
00:02:38.640 The cotton farmers are from America.
00:02:41.720 It's all cut, pieced, sewn together here in America.
00:02:46.640 Changing the world one customer at a time.
00:02:50.520 It's American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
00:02:55.220 American-Giant.com slash Glenn.
00:02:59.980 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:03:07.440 There is a developing story in Wisconsin, and we have an exclusive interview here with Libby Sobik.
00:03:20.400 She is with the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty.
00:03:25.540 This is really, this is an absolute sign of the times.
00:03:29.700 This story is something that I think is happening over and over and over again.
00:03:34.320 And everybody knows it, but the parents are being slammed for saying anything about it.
00:03:40.740 Libby, welcome to the program.
00:03:42.780 Thanks so much.
00:03:44.000 So tell me what, tell me what happened.
00:03:46.480 This was, uh, at what school is the name of this school?
00:03:51.140 Uh, it is the-
00:03:52.320 Sun Prairie School District in Wisconsin.
00:03:54.780 Sun Prairie.
00:03:55.640 Okay.
00:03:56.460 So what happened?
00:03:57.320 So earlier in March, there were four freshman girls, uh, going into the girls' locker room
00:04:04.680 after a gym class that involved a swim unit and decided to rinse off before class, very
00:04:10.620 common practice.
00:04:12.100 And while they were in the girls' locker room, an adult biological male, a senior student,
00:04:18.800 was also in the locker room with them, proceeded to walk into the bathroom naked.
00:04:25.180 And as he exposed his body to them, said, I'm trans, by the way.
00:04:30.220 This was incredibly uncomfortable for these four freshmen, 14-year-old girls.
00:04:36.120 And when they brought this incident to the attention of their school administrators, the school
00:04:42.300 administration completely failed to do anything in accordance with federal law, including
00:04:49.000 notifying their parents.
00:04:50.720 Oh my gosh.
00:04:51.140 And after weeks of parents reaching out to the school, asking for conversation with the
00:04:56.860 school administration, asking for clarity around school policies, the school only met with
00:05:02.720 the parents a month after the incident and has yet today to identify a policy that really
00:05:09.580 clarifies what should have happened and how they're going to prevent this from happening
00:05:13.920 in the future.
00:05:14.520 So is this, is this boy, has he claimed he was trans before?
00:05:20.660 Do you know?
00:05:21.900 Yes.
00:05:22.440 It's our understanding that this senior student has a socially transition and identifies as a
00:05:28.940 transgender woman.
00:05:30.520 Jeez.
00:05:30.880 But this really raises questions about the Biden administration's push to school districts
00:05:36.960 and other institutions of higher education about what sex means under Title IX, right?
00:05:43.920 For the last 50 years, we've understood that Title IX protects young women and girls and ensures
00:05:50.020 to provide them with spaces that are safe from sexual harassment.
00:05:54.540 Yet today, under the Biden administration, all of that has been turned upside down.
00:05:59.200 And in fact, we don't know what safe spaces should be provided for young women.
00:06:04.680 And under the Sun Prairie School District's current statement of policy, the girls were the ones that were expected to leave the locker room.
00:06:13.020 That's completely backwards.
00:06:14.620 Oh, my gosh.
00:06:15.140 I have to tell you, for a group of people that were the ones that were screaming about safe spaces,
00:06:24.880 the disregard for our children and for our girls in particular to have a safe space is remarkable.
00:06:35.900 Just remarkable.
00:06:36.840 I completely agree.
00:06:38.840 I'm not only an attorney.
00:06:40.880 I'm a mom of two young girls.
00:06:42.740 And these are the sorts of issues that are really of nightmares for parents, right?
00:06:47.320 We want to put our students in school and expect that they have a safe space to learn and participate in educational activities.
00:06:56.000 And school districts, quite frankly, are receiving these directives from the Biden administration.
00:07:02.980 And instances like these that apparently, quote unquote, never happen,
00:07:08.280 are only going to continue to happen as the Biden administration pushes these regulations to change what the definition of sex means under Title IX.
00:07:18.300 So you're taking them to court?
00:07:21.920 You're taking the school district to court?
00:07:23.620 We are not, actually.
00:07:25.900 Unfortunately, there's not really an avenue to bring the school district to court under federal law.
00:07:31.980 And so these very brave parents said, we want to bring light to this situation.
00:07:37.740 We want there to be accountability for the school district.
00:07:41.760 And that's what the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty has stepped up to do.
00:07:46.180 We want to protect these young girls from the cultural backlash of cancel culture by being the ones to bring this issue to light and talk about why we need to have transparency and clear policies around Title IX and sexual harassment.
00:08:01.520 So if there's no road to litigation, how are you expecting to change the mind of the school district?
00:08:09.920 Well, you know, in today's world, bringing to light these issues can be a really powerful tool.
00:08:17.700 We're already seeing the school district having to respond in multiple instances.
00:08:22.220 Now they started off saying that this wasn't clearly reported.
00:08:25.680 They are now saying, well, this, in fact, did happen and that they're taking steps to make sure it won't happen again.
00:08:31.620 And we want this to be a lesson for school districts around the country.
00:08:35.660 You can't shy away from hard conversations.
00:08:38.800 You need to have clear policies around what sexual harassment means and how students can access spaces for students of one gender or another.
00:08:50.400 And most importantly, we hope that the Biden administration is paying attention and really considering before they put these regulations into law,
00:08:59.600 really thinking through what the consequences of their actions are.
00:09:03.600 We'll stand at the ready to, you know, join what I expect to be a national movement to hold the Biden administration accountable once those regulations go into effect.
00:09:14.360 We're still waiting for that to happen.
00:09:16.400 But for now, we really want to hold these school districts accountable by having a national conversation.
00:09:22.060 Okay. Libby, thank you so much.
00:09:24.640 Liberty, or sorry, Libby is with
00:09:27.380 the law firm, the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty.
00:09:35.100 And you can find more information about what they do and how you can get involved at will-law.org.
00:09:43.840 Libby, thank you so much.
00:09:44.840 I appreciate it.
00:09:45.780 I, you bet.
00:09:47.580 I have to tell you, did you see the story that was in the news today, Stu?
00:09:53.840 I'm just looking for it, where the doctor, a doctor who says that this is not, hang on, I'm finding it here, that this is not what, transgenderism is not what everybody thinks it is.
00:10:11.600 He says there is a known psychological phenomena, and it is called autogynephilia, and it is a man's sense of being sexually aroused at the thought of himself as a woman.
00:10:28.780 Trans activists are pushing back on this.
00:10:33.440 He said, but this is a psychological disorder.
00:10:37.220 And he said, when they are linked to sexuality, of wanting to get, you know, dressed as a woman, then you get shame and guilt and fear, and people don't want that, so they deny this condition.
00:10:52.080 And he says the problem with it is, is it is a, it's a sexual disorder.
00:10:58.620 So you're putting some of, if, if one, if we could just save one child, if one of these guys has this, putting him in the locker room with girls is just the worst that there could be.
00:11:15.840 It's amazing we have to make these arguments, particularly from people who spent the previous three to five years telling us if a male coworker makes a joke that is a little bit blue, they should be fired and humiliated and thrown off of the, off of the workforce and never to be seen again.
00:11:38.920 You know, if, if, if a, if a male asks a woman out or flirts with her, it is some massive, you know, crisis, right?
00:11:50.680 I mean, like the entire, like the, there were multiple levels of the Me Too thing, the Harvey Weinstein level being a very valid one.
00:11:57.440 And then it trickled down to like, Hey, he, he, he wants, asked a coworker out and therefore he's, you know, toast.
00:12:05.460 And it's like, these same people are like, you know, teenage girls should probably be naked with teenage boys in the same locker room against their will.
00:12:14.320 In this case, an 18 year old, 18 year old and a 14 year old should be in the 14 year olds don't want it to happen are saying, no, we should ignore that.
00:12:23.380 That's the, the same people are making these arguments.
00:12:26.180 Well, no means, in this case, no means yes.
00:12:30.080 Right.
00:12:30.320 I guess.
00:12:30.840 I guess.
00:12:31.420 I don't know.
00:12:32.000 Yeah.
00:12:32.560 Huh.
00:12:32.900 Which is just fascinating.
00:12:34.560 And this also goes to the, the, the parade situation that happened over the weekend where, uh, what was the city?
00:12:42.940 Was it, uh, Florida, Florida, right?
00:12:44.840 Yeah.
00:12:45.020 Where they had this, it was Port St. Lucie.
00:12:47.420 They're going to have a pride parade, um, organized by the Pride Alliance of the Treasure Coast.
00:12:54.280 Oh, love that.
00:12:55.240 And the law stepped in and said, look, you can have a pride parade.
00:13:00.560 We're not going to stop that.
00:13:01.580 You can do what you want to have pride for whatever you're having pride for.
00:13:03.960 One of the seven deadly sins.
00:13:04.880 Go ahead.
00:13:05.360 Just have a parade to celebrate that.
00:13:07.900 But go ahead.
00:13:09.340 Do that.
00:13:10.240 The thing is, if you're going to have nudity and people, you know.
00:13:16.500 Here, here's what the law actually says.
00:13:18.360 Yeah, go on.
00:13:18.960 You can't have, if you're doing something in front of a live audience and in whole or in part depict or simulate, uh, nudity, sexual conduct, sexual excitement, specific sexual activities, lewd conduct, or the lewd exposure of prosthetic or imitation genitals or breasts.
00:13:40.500 You cannot do it in public with children present.
00:13:45.340 Apparently, you could still do it in public.
00:13:47.960 Yes.
00:13:48.200 Which is actually news to me.
00:13:49.940 I didn't, I didn't know you could.
00:13:51.300 Yeah.
00:13:51.460 But you can do that in public.
00:13:53.080 You just can't do it in front of children.
00:13:54.880 And they're like, oh, we can't do it in front of children?
00:13:56.640 Let's cancel the entire parade.
00:13:58.280 I mean, what is that?
00:13:59.500 Legitimately, they decided to cancel the parade because they could not do it in front of children.
00:14:03.060 That is like, am I missing a step in the logic train here?
00:14:11.560 No, I'm just wondering what you were going to say.
00:14:13.460 That is like, what?
00:14:14.800 What?
00:14:15.520 It seems as if what their goal here was.
00:14:20.140 To do it in front of children.
00:14:21.120 To have nudity and sexual acts depicted in front of children.
00:14:24.980 And then they're like, I can't believe these conspiracy theorists who think that there's all this weird stuff going on with kids.
00:14:29.380 Yeah, I mean, it seems like you keep backing up the conspiracy theory.
00:14:33.840 Like, are you trying to convince us it is true?
00:14:38.060 It is incredible that this keeps happening.
00:14:40.380 And I guess maybe their argument is, well, if you're not going to tell us how we're going to do our parade, blah, blah, blah.
00:14:45.180 Well, that's what the law is.
00:14:46.780 It's kind of telling you what you get.
00:14:48.460 It's one of the reasons why we resist a lot of laws.
00:14:50.440 Not this one, though.
00:14:52.080 The Nudeity in Front of Kids Act is one that I support.
00:14:55.740 They should not have it.
00:14:56.700 It is just amazing to me.
00:14:58.880 Just amazing to me that we have to say that.
00:15:02.580 I know.
00:15:03.060 It's really weird.
00:15:05.080 You have a parade that is all about sex.
00:15:09.740 And you're carrying all kinds of things that you're carrying with you.
00:15:16.380 Replicas.
00:15:17.920 Reproductive replicas.
00:15:19.080 Let's call it that.
00:15:20.160 You are carrying those.
00:15:22.220 You are.
00:15:23.540 I mean, you're just pushing sex.
00:15:27.040 That's all that is.
00:15:28.880 And you think, I mean, I really think this is the beginning of giant pushback.
00:15:38.480 And I really hope that it becomes sane and, you know, that you don't flip to the other side and the other side becomes as nasty as people on the left are.
00:15:58.560 I don't want people to just be rounded up and thrown into jail because they're all a politician.
00:16:06.340 I want fair and just trials for anybody in Washington that has been doing Hunter Biden.
00:16:13.280 I want a fair and just trial.
00:16:16.240 I don't want to just throw him in because I say he's guilty, even though I know he is.
00:16:21.000 And I have no problem with transgender people as long as you're keeping it, you know, in the appropriate place, which is never a school, never or stripping in front of children.
00:16:37.460 It is never an appropriate place.
00:16:42.040 But I'm telling you, this is the beginning of pushback.
00:16:45.320 I think America has had it up to here.
00:16:49.880 And if if these people aren't careful, careful, I mean, you know, because they're how dare them think that we shouldn't be able to do that in public with children.
00:16:59.700 How dare us?
00:17:01.900 Oh, I think I think we're just getting started.
00:17:04.420 I think we're just getting started.
00:17:05.980 This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.
00:17:08.800 And don't forget, rate us on iTunes.
00:17:11.520 So, Stu, have you been following the Nashville shooter, the manifesto thing?
00:17:16.000 I think it's fascinating.
00:17:17.540 I do, too.
00:17:19.200 Just one of the strangest things.
00:17:21.360 You know, you think you think, you know, a country and then and then this happens.
00:17:26.600 Yeah.
00:17:27.020 OK, so the Nashville shooter, she goes in, kills six at the Covenant Elementary School.
00:17:33.980 She shot by police.
00:17:35.100 They grab a manifesto and there's two manifestos.
00:17:39.320 Apparently, one is why she did it and all of her thoughts behind it.
00:17:45.080 The other one is like, here's what I'm going to do.
00:17:48.000 And they're now saying that the FBI won't release it.
00:17:53.760 So it's out of the Nashville police hands, apparently.
00:17:56.760 It's now with the FBI.
00:17:58.800 And who doesn't trust the FBI?
00:18:02.280 So they they're not going to do it because they said that it is it's very disturbing.
00:18:09.800 And it would be astro.
00:18:13.340 I'm quoting astronomically dangerous.
00:18:18.600 Wow.
00:18:21.740 Astronomically dangerous.
00:18:23.320 Very, very strange.
00:18:24.860 And seemingly there's a path here.
00:18:28.240 Right.
00:18:29.080 Astronomically dangerous to whom?
00:18:30.840 That she's talking about, apparently.
00:18:33.540 And again, I'm calling her her because she's a woman.
00:18:37.320 OK.
00:18:38.680 The entire media has abandoned their policy of welcoming a gender transition because she identifies
00:18:48.840 as a man, yet nowhere in any article do they actually call her a he.
00:18:55.720 Why?
00:18:56.760 Why in this one case have they abandoned this policy that they say you are a complete hate
00:19:02.860 monger if you it's dead naming?
00:19:06.540 They are dead naming this shooter.
00:19:09.480 Now, I am completely for that.
00:19:12.500 Whatever she would want in life, I want the opposite to happen in her in her wake.
00:19:17.880 That's what I want.
00:19:18.780 I mean, I don't need to be.
00:19:19.740 I don't want to be vindictive about it.
00:19:21.860 I just want to tell that she went and killed a bunch of nine.
00:19:25.740 Yeah, I know.
00:19:26.320 I feel like I want to be a little vindictive.
00:19:28.420 Yeah, I might not be the most biblically based belief that I have.
00:19:32.820 I don't think that's really biblically based at all.
00:19:36.480 Yeah, perhaps.
00:19:37.380 But I don't.
00:19:38.540 There are times in which my emotions maybe get.
00:19:41.300 No, I know.
00:19:42.120 I know.
00:19:42.780 So we'll just say we'll leave that aside for a moment.
00:19:45.620 And, you know, it's hard to be like me all the time, especially the humility part of me.
00:19:51.920 I mean, there is nobody more humble than me, and you know that.
00:19:56.900 You're the humblest.
00:19:58.240 I'm the humblest.
00:19:59.300 There should be an award for this.
00:20:00.820 But anyway, I'm too humble to ask for it.
00:20:03.480 But the path here is interesting, I think, because they're saying it's incredibly dangerous.
00:20:07.280 Like, does she have a decoder ring for our nuclear arsenal?
00:20:10.840 What do you mean it's astronomically dangerous?
00:20:12.860 Yeah, so there's two things, though.
00:20:14.760 There is her why I did it and what I'm planning.
00:20:20.820 And what the, I guess, the FBI is saying is the part where she was planning, somebody else, they said it'd be very, very dangerous because somebody else could get this and just pick it up where she left off.
00:20:33.740 Well, I don't think it's all that hard.
00:20:36.700 I mean, unless, like Stu said, she has codes to the nuclear sea.
00:20:40.980 We don't need that.
00:20:42.980 But I think you're fooling yourself if you are thinking that, you know, crazy people can't come up with a plan to kill a lot of people.
00:20:53.800 You know what I mean?
00:20:55.680 Right.
00:20:56.100 Now, maybe it was, let's target the GOP headquarters.
00:21:01.100 And because I believe the FBI is trying to protect something.
00:21:07.220 I just don't think it's the American people.
00:21:09.820 And what I think it is, if I may propose a guess here, is, Glenn, do you know what evil conservatives would do if they read this manifesto by this trans person?
00:21:24.640 They would target the trans community.
00:21:27.380 Well, they did say that.
00:21:28.300 That is what they're saying.
00:21:31.460 So, like, when a trans person kills nine-year-olds, the danger are conservatives who might go after other unrelated trans people.
00:21:42.440 Can I just tell you something here?
00:21:44.360 Can I tell you something?
00:21:46.660 We have 350 million guns.
00:21:51.580 They're in the hands of most of the conservatives, very few liberals.
00:21:59.080 Okay?
00:21:59.440 I just want to make this really clear.
00:22:02.160 If there was a problem, you'd know about it.
00:22:09.320 I mean, it is a bizarre inconsistency in their argument, as you note here.
00:22:17.120 But, like, there's a quote from a guy from John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
00:22:22.260 And he says, I think what the FBI is really concerned with, and I think law enforcement,
00:22:27.820 is that if there is something in there that is truly damaging for the transgender community,
00:22:32.780 I think they are hesitant to do it because they are afraid of a violent backlash against that protected class of people.
00:22:39.540 What would be in there that would be so damaging?
00:22:42.580 This is a crazy person.
00:22:44.500 What?
00:22:44.820 Honestly, what could she have written that would be worse than murdering nine-year-olds?
00:22:49.380 Like, I don't know.
00:22:51.600 And again, I have not seen any backlash against your everyday trans person for these murders.
00:22:58.180 I think what you note about conservatives is that we tend to treat people as individuals.
00:23:04.480 So the people actually murdering nine-year-olds, yes, we want consequences to come to them.
00:23:09.700 The people actually jiggling their naked genitals in front of kids' faces, we think there should be legal consequences there, too.
00:23:17.520 But we don't blame every single person that has similar immutable characteristics or mutable characteristics because they share them with criminals.
00:23:27.580 You don't blame the group.
00:23:28.960 That's the left's thing to do.
00:23:30.920 And maybe that's why every media source seems to get on these bandwagons because that's the way they think.
00:23:35.760 Well, they always finger themselves.
00:23:37.800 They always – sorry for that.
00:23:40.380 They always –
00:23:41.520 People, people, you with your dirty minds.
00:23:45.760 Guys, I know you.
00:23:47.200 This is the audience's fault, not yours, Glenn.
00:23:50.440 This is their fault for where their mind went.
00:23:52.980 Thank you, my God.
00:23:54.080 I blame them.
00:23:58.780 I am disappointed in every single person in this audience for what they just thought.
00:24:04.160 You – you're sick.
00:24:07.000 Wow, that is sick.
00:24:07.960 I'm starting to side with the media on you, you know?
00:24:10.980 So, the media always points to us on the things that they do, the things that they believe.
00:24:20.840 Yes, that's what they do.
00:24:22.880 So, I'm going to move off of that point and let me get to – okay.
00:24:28.700 So, the guy in Louisville that shot five people and killed them at the old National Bank in Louisville.
00:24:36.760 Remember that story?
00:24:37.780 I do remember that, unfortunately.
00:24:39.160 Okay, okay.
00:24:40.800 Remember, that was going to be, you know, oh, we got to ban these guns.
00:24:44.800 Mm-hmm.
00:24:46.060 Thirteen-page manifesto, which the Daily Mail has, allegedly disclosed that the 25-year-old shot and killed multiple colleagues
00:24:56.600 in part to prove his belief that guns are too easy to obtain in Kentucky.
00:25:04.240 He wanted to draw attention to mental illness, something his parents later disclosed he suffered from and took medicine from.
00:25:13.120 Gun control backers latched on to the shooter's crimes to embolden Democrats to move forward with an unconstitutional red flag law and gun grabs.
00:25:22.380 Gun control backers, but that's what he wanted.
00:25:26.420 That's what was in his manifesto.
00:25:29.320 And, you know, let me just – let me just say this.
00:25:35.620 They are on – they are on television and in public.
00:25:44.000 Like, imagine if I were on the air every day and I said, those people for January 6th, I'm bailing all of them out.
00:25:55.660 I'm, you know, I'm with all of them except for Rehams.
00:25:58.760 I'm for all of them, and I think they did good, and we will bail them out and provide them with attorneys, anybody who ever does anything like that.
00:26:10.260 Do you think that that would encourage more people to do that?
00:26:17.080 Be neutral or discourage?
00:26:20.380 What do you think?
00:26:21.080 They are telling people, like in Nashville, if you have a good reason, you're fine.
00:26:32.640 You're totally fine.
00:26:34.420 In fact, you might be a hero.
00:26:37.740 We'll bail you out.
00:26:39.180 We'll clean it up.
00:26:40.160 We'll cover it up.
00:26:41.860 You just do your thing.
00:26:45.020 They are breeding killers.
00:26:48.540 Incentivizing the behavior.
00:26:49.660 Yes, because they're all sick.
00:26:52.680 All of them have a mental illness.
00:26:55.780 You don't go and do this without a mental illness.
00:26:59.900 So they are playing on – they're souping up the people who have a mental illness.
00:27:07.520 How many times have you – let me rephrase it.
00:27:10.680 Have you ever heard anyone on any of these lefty talk shows or, you know, CNN, have you ever heard anyone say to their audience, be careful who you're surrounded by.
00:27:27.180 There are a lot of crazy leftists.
00:27:29.960 There are also maybe people that want you to strike out and do these things.
00:27:35.020 Whatever you do, don't.
00:27:36.760 That's not the way we do things.
00:27:39.620 We don't burn cities down.
00:27:41.860 We don't riot.
00:27:43.760 We don't do those things.
00:27:46.140 Have you ever heard them say that?
00:27:48.060 No, you've heard them say the opposite over and over and over again.
00:27:53.660 So when a guy shows up at a bank with a gun and kills five people and he says in his manifesto it's because, you know, Joe Biden is right and all these people are right.
00:28:05.120 We've got to grab guns.
00:28:07.880 Does that give anyone pause on what you're doing?
00:28:12.680 Anything.
00:28:14.800 No.
00:28:15.280 No, because with the left, the ends justify the means and that should chill Americans to the bone.
00:28:24.080 What's the difference between killing five and 500,000?
00:28:29.820 Ends justify the means.
00:28:38.140 America's going down the wrong path.
00:28:40.200 And I think most Americans know it.
00:28:44.800 You just have to remind yourself all the time who we are, who we are.
00:28:49.680 They're doing everything they can to destroy our history, to destroy our values, destroy our churches.
00:28:58.780 They're coming up.
00:29:00.060 This is a new religion.
00:29:02.560 This is a religion, whether they like it or not.
00:29:05.580 They abandoned God long ago.
00:29:08.240 And what Nietzsche said is true.
00:29:12.200 You can't just banish God.
00:29:15.140 It leaves a vacuum.
00:29:17.240 And you will worship another God.
00:29:21.580 Well, that's what happened to a third of Germans.
00:29:25.460 They worshipped a God of science and a mythological pagan style God and Adolf Hitler.
00:29:34.420 And look where they ended up.
00:29:38.240 And nobody stood up to stop them because the churches were too slow, too asleep, too worried about losing things.
00:29:48.960 America's different.
00:29:50.100 Always has been.
00:29:50.980 When our churches begin to get it, and that's really for you, you need to start leaving your church if they're silent and go find another one.
00:30:01.280 They're silent on all of this stuff.
00:30:03.100 You need to say, what is the deal here?
00:30:06.080 What is the deal?
00:30:07.000 If they're not at least preaching against silence, preaching against chaos, trying to make people better and come together and teach people how to do that.
00:30:27.320 If they're not doing that, if they're not pointing out evil, why are you going?
00:30:32.560 Why are you going?
00:30:35.420 And don't you dare leave your church without telling your church exactly why you're leaving.
00:30:41.020 The best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:30:51.120 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:30:54.340 The big story of the day.
00:30:57.360 One of the biggest, I think, in news for a long time.
00:31:02.860 Oh, yeah.
00:31:03.120 Tucker Carlson is out at Fox News.
00:31:07.420 Now, I don't know what that means.
00:31:11.260 You know, we're in wild speculation territory.
00:31:15.080 You know, could be that he was fired because of, you know, they just paid out, you know, almost a billion dollars and they don't want any chance of anything.
00:31:25.120 But that's suicidal.
00:31:26.900 To me, this is a suicidal move for Fox.
00:31:29.440 If it's their move, right?
00:31:30.640 If it's their move.
00:31:31.300 We don't know, could be that Tucker decided he wanted to leave.
00:31:34.300 Could be that Tucker, they asked Tucker to do something he was not comfortable doing.
00:31:39.420 That could be.
00:31:40.560 Yeah, let me read this statement to you.
00:31:41.900 Tell me, this is the way it's framed.
00:31:43.260 This is from Fox News.
00:31:45.420 They say Fox News Media and Tucker Carlson have agreed to part ways.
00:31:50.800 That's exactly what they said, I think, when I left.
00:31:54.960 Right.
00:31:55.700 And that has always been framed as you got fired, which I know for a fact was not true,
00:31:59.780 considering I saw their offer for your extension.
00:32:02.120 Yeah.
00:32:02.380 So it was always a weird framing.
00:32:04.200 Yeah.
00:32:04.400 So we parted ways.
00:32:05.640 So that that bodes well that Tucker, I don't know, may have been asked to, hey, you got to you got to stop with X, Y or Z.
00:32:16.120 No.
00:32:16.480 See ya.
00:32:19.400 Right.
00:32:19.640 Could be that.
00:32:20.080 Yeah.
00:32:20.400 He, you know, I don't know what his contract was.
00:32:25.140 And, you know, it probably was.
00:32:27.300 It very well could be that they couldn't fire him because they didn't have cause.
00:32:35.000 And so they wanted to change maybe the format of the show, wanted him to do things differently, et cetera, et cetera, and make it unworkable for him.
00:32:44.660 So that way he would say, all right, I'm not doing that.
00:32:48.060 And they'd say, well, the only other thing is you leave.
00:32:51.240 Well, I got a contract.
00:32:52.840 Fine.
00:32:53.280 We'll pay it out.
00:32:54.640 Because if you fired him, he had to pay it out anyway.
00:32:56.740 Anyway, we thank him for his service to the network as a host and prior to that as a contributor.
00:33:04.560 Mr. Carlson's, this is, I mean, amazing.
00:33:06.740 Mr. Carlson's last program was February, April 21st.
00:33:10.580 The fact that you have the number one host in all of cable news and he doesn't even come back on to say, hey, this is what's going on.
00:33:17.300 I mean, that no goodbye show.
00:33:20.460 No, none of that.
00:33:21.520 Just he's done.
00:33:22.240 Fox News Tonight will air at 8 p.m. Eastern this evening as an interim host helmed by rotating Fox News personalities until a new host is named.
00:33:31.100 Would you sign up for the Blaze right now so we just have a bucket full of money we could throw his way?
00:33:39.940 Where would they go for that, Glenn?
00:33:41.120 You'd go to blazetv.com, blazetv.com slash Glenn.
00:33:45.760 You'll save $20 if you use the promo code QUESTIONEVERYTHING.
00:33:50.640 Become a subscriber.
00:33:53.320 I'll tell you, now more than ever, where are you going to get the truth?
00:34:00.300 Tucker was the only guy out there that I felt was in the mainstream media that was telling America the truth.
00:34:08.900 Who's doing that?
00:34:11.320 There's nobody in the mainstream media.
00:34:15.060 Nobody.
00:34:15.380 And I now include Fox.
00:34:22.140 Getting rid of Tucker Carlson.
00:34:24.600 Wow.
00:34:25.000 Letting him walk out the door even.
00:34:27.400 Wow.
00:34:28.240 The guy's at the top of it.
00:34:30.020 He had, what, three days with Elon Musk last week.
00:34:34.720 You get to sit down with Elon Musk at this time with everything that's going on between the starship and Twitter.
00:34:43.380 And you're gone the next week?
00:34:50.520 Never seen anything like it.
00:34:52.640 Never seen anything like it.
00:34:53.680 It really is a remarkable.
00:34:54.880 It's not the way I thought this day was going.
00:34:56.960 No, no.
00:34:57.620 That's for sure.
00:34:59.120 Yeah.
00:34:59.560 It's, you know, it's...
00:35:01.980 Every day I think, well, it's going to be interesting to see how all that works out.
00:35:06.180 It's amazing, too, as I'm watching Succession and they're in the final season just watching all the...
00:35:12.380 You wonder how much of this stuff is real behind the scenes.
00:35:16.020 I think a lot of it is real.
00:35:17.680 Yeah.
00:35:17.920 It's certainly based on stuff.
00:35:19.540 And again, it's a negative take on what you do.
00:35:21.700 It's basically the Fox News Channel.
00:35:23.220 So, it's, I think, fascinating to watch this because you've really...
00:35:27.680 Have we ever seen a situation like this?
00:35:30.120 I mean, they got rid of Bill O'Reilly at very near his peak.
00:35:33.620 The closest thing you could come up to is...
00:35:36.620 Oh, shoot.
00:35:39.780 I just forgot his name.
00:35:41.400 He was at NBC, did the morning show.
00:35:44.160 Matt Lauer.
00:35:44.560 Matt Lauer.
00:35:45.040 But again, that was totally different.
00:35:46.820 I know.
00:35:47.260 No, totally different scenario, but he still was the big...
00:35:51.220 The big guy.
00:35:51.580 ...big name.
00:35:52.080 But he wasn't even at his peak.
00:35:53.960 Mm-hmm.
00:35:54.820 You know...
00:35:55.140 This is really, I mean...
00:35:56.380 This is...
00:35:56.880 ...tucker Carlson world.
00:35:58.280 Peak.
00:35:59.420 You know the damage this does to the right?
00:36:04.980 If the left and Soros Money, which I guarantee you was involved, if that...
00:36:11.320 If they can learn that they can do this, we're done.
00:36:15.040 By the way, have you seen that the automakers are dropping all AM radios?
00:36:20.960 Mm.
00:36:21.560 This is...
00:36:22.220 In fact, let me give you something.
00:36:23.480 This is from the National Association of Broadcasters.
00:36:27.760 Text AM to 52886 and tell Congress we need AM radios in cars.
00:36:35.460 There's a lot of reasons, but this is another way just to silence us on AM radio.
00:36:42.700 Please.
00:36:43.260 They're going to drive us out of everything.
00:36:47.060 They can get away with this?
00:36:49.200 Oh, they are so emboldened.
00:36:51.660 Text AM to 52886.
00:36:56.480 Tell Congress we need AM radio in cars.
00:37:00.400 Please do that.
00:37:01.620 We need a strong showing in Congress.
00:37:04.460 Text AM to 52886.
00:37:07.260 Congress, we need AM radios in cars.
00:37:12.160 Do not let them drop that.
00:37:13.940 This message kind of from the National Association of Broadcasters and me.
00:37:19.720 Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na...
